better buy heavy.” She reports that while there’s been a falloff in some categories — notably statuary and fancier items — there has been vigorous activity on other fronts. “Blue and black glazed pots are more popular than ever,” she says. “We’ve re-ordered those, and many of our square and rectangular containers, too.” Next door at Larchmont Nurseries, Gloria DeMatas and Donna Bianco echo the positive assessment. They’ve done well with wind chimes, window boxes and pottery. “We’ve sold lots of cobalt blue pots. They’re so eyecatching; they stand out nicely in the garden, and all flowers look beautiful in a blue pot,” says DeMatas. Birdbaths are another brisk seller. “Right now, people are enjoying staying at home,” Bianco says. “Inside and out, they want to surround themselves with things that make them happy.” People investing
the last of their discretionary cash in their gardens probably want to enjoy them beyond the summer. Pam Brooks, president of online retrailer Arizona Pottery, likes the durability of polyresin planters, which resist the stresses of freeze and thaw and are conveniently lightweight. “They’re crackproof, weatherproof, and will never fade like plastic,” Brooks says. A wide palette of hues, and styles ranging from classical to modern, make these a versatile choice. For something a little different, Brooks suggests Vietnamese river clay pots, known for weather hardiness. Terra cotta is often rejected by consumers as delicate, but Brooks says “clay’s a natural material that, more than any other, creates a perfect ecological environment.” Plant roots maintain an even temperature in clay, which absorbs excess moisture. But the pots can dry out, and do need to be protected in winter. Try painting the pots inside and out with an insulating liquid resin. And make sure your plantings are well “crocked” by adding a bottom layer of pebbles or broken pottery for drainage.
a recession-proof refuge. By KIM COOK For the aSSociated PreSS
Retail may be in a drought, but for many garden supply stores, it’s been a green season in more ways than one. We’re paying a lot more attention to beautifying our own backyards, perhaps because we’re traveling less. Americans are spending about 20 percent more than last year on planters, benches and outdoor accessories, according to online sales tracker CSN. That’s what often happens during a recession, apparently. Sharon Acocella, manager of Tony’s Nurseries in Larchmont, N.Y., remembers her old boss saying years ago, “Economy’s doing badly; we’d
Set saucered containers on pot feet and keep watering whenever the soil feels dry. Move potted perennials to a sheltered spot when the harsher weather arrives. Firebowls and pits are increasingly popular in colder climes. Tabletop and floor model propane-fed heaters, long popular in the Southwest, have found a wider audience. There are many versions of the firepit, some incorporating a coffee table or at least a ledge to support a smores stick. For something more unusual, consider the chimenea, or chimneyed outdoor oven; it serves well in the wind, and channels any excess smoke skyward. Online retailer Teak, Wicker and More has some attractive cast-iron designs, while FirePitsCentral has a huge range of bowls and heaters. There are other intriguing garden accents sturdy enough to take on the elements. Target’s copper rain chain, an Asian garden fixture, channels runoff down its links from the edge of a structure. Temple bells or laminated wood wind chimes provide soothing tones when the weather turns gloomy. Target’s also got stepping stones made of recycled plastic or frost-resistant cast concrete, to mark a path in style. Nestle one of Chiasso’s stainless steel spheres

omen across the country are meeting the demands of busy schedules and tightened wallets by setting aside life’s simple pleasures and putting themselves at the bottom of the to-do list. In fact, a new survey commissioned by the makers of Edwards frozen desserts finds more than nine in 10 American women have cut back on indulgences during the past year. Fifty-nine percent of survey respondents are cutting back on events out with friends and more than one-third (35 percent) are cutting back on even the smallest treats, such as manicures and desserts.

The silent treatment
In today’s age of technology, the silent treatment is imperative to maintain sanity. Home phones, cell phones, email, instant messaging, pagers, not to mention the multiple ways you get pinged when you turn on the computer, can all be overwhelming. Get serious about your silent treatment and power off the technology. Turn off the ringer on all phones, shut down the computer, and turn off the television and the radio. Now it’s time for a 15 to 30 minute scheduled time out because you deserve a little peace and quiet.

Nearly all (94 percent) American women in the study admit that they don’t indulge or treat themselves as often as they’d like because other people or commitments come first.
Fifty-six percent of women say they don’t treat themselves as often as they’d like because they can’t afford to. Nearly a third (32 percent) of women say they now have less free time for themselves than they did a year ago.
Bring nature indoors
A great way to nurture yourself is to bring nature indoors. You can do this simply by cultivating a container garden. This could be a window box, urn, basket or round fish bowl. For a fabulous display of nature indoors use a Bonsai plant, an orchid, a robust green plant, herbs or layer two different kinds of tulips. This is especially good for chilly winter months as floral aromas and popping colors can brighten a dark day.
The flip side
Pamper yourself by flipping to the right side of your brain. Engaging in art and creative pursuits fires-up the right side of your brain, which is the side of the brain that savors freedom. The left side of your brain is good when you need to pay the bills or figure out your kids’ 5th grade math problem. Spend a little time painting, drawing, making jewelry or knitting. You deserve to play on the flip side.

A Vance County-based rapper will receive national exposure this fall when his music is featured on a movie expected to air on a popular cable channel. On July 25, Black Entertainment Television purchased the rights to broadcast the direct-toDVD movie “I Do … I Did!” according to actress Cherie Johnson, who co-wrote and stars in the film. The Today title track to the film was written and performed by rapper Big Sin, a DabT-storm ney resident whose real High: 89 name is Ryan Harris.

It’s hard to do but it is important to put yourself at the top of the to-do list every once in a while. Simple indulgences, like an Edwards Singles Á La Modes dessert, are a quick and easy way to treat yourself to something sweet, as well as fill your kitchen with a delicious home-baked aroma.

Essential essence
Budding beauty
Invest in four to six bud vases or use any vase that’s lying around your house. Go to your local farmer’s market or grocery store and buy a bouquet of flowers. When you get home, break the flower bunch apart into single stems and place the flowers in the bud vases. Distribute these vases around the house in the rooms you visit most frequently. Place one by the kitchen sink, the vanity in your bathroom, on your nightstand, in the powder room and in your kids’ bedrooms. You’ll be amazed at how your kids will appreciate the gesture. Then when you walk around your home you’ll be greeted with flowers wherever you go. And you did it with just one bouquet.

Treat yourself to the power of fragrance. Aromatherapy sachets placed in drawers are a sensational way to feel good without having to do or spend much at all. If you’re looking for an energizing scent try citrus, peppermint or bergamot. To take the stress down a few notches choose lavender, chamomile, sandalwood or ylang-ylang. You deserve to tickle your nose.

When it comes to our emotions it’s really hard to multi-task. It’s nearly impossible to be sad and exuberant in the same exact moment. You deserve to laugh so choose more moments to get a giggle in your day. Read something funny or rent a funny movie. While life is full of stressful moments, the benefits of taking time to rejuvenate and unwind really can make a difference.

Kerr-Tar COG planner familiar with the region By WILLIAM F. WEST Daily Dispatch Writer
The Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments has a new transportation and land use planner. Mike Ciriello, 44, formerly of the Charlotte area and who previously lived in the Raleigh area for several years, began Aug. 3 in his new position in HenderCiriello son. “I wanted to come back to this region,” Ciriello told the Dispatch, adding that he wanted to find a piece of land where he could do hobby farming. “I also wanted to get back into the public sector,” Ciriello said, a reference to his last two jobs having been in private development. Kerr-Tar, which is based at 1724 Graham Ave., is one of 17 regional planning and development agencies in North Carolina that administer federal programs and grants and help local governments identify and meet needs that improve the quality of life. Kerr-Tar is governed by local government members in what the state calls Region K, that is, Vance, Granville, Warren, Franklin and Person counties.

And for the next couple of years he was a program coordinator for Meridian House International, a firm contracted to work with the U.S. State Department. He said he worked with visiting foreign dignitaries who wanted to meet their U.S. peers. He said he came to North Carolina to become a graduate student at N.C. State University, but he said he needed to establish residency. So, he said, he worked approximately a couple of years for the Council on International Education Exchange in Durham, with his job being to help college students travel, study and work abroad. He joined N.C. State as assistant director of study abroad programs. And he said he set up a program in Russia, a program in the Dominican Republic and a program in France. He worked for N.C. State until 1996, when he entered the landscape architecture program. He earned his master’s degree in 1999. Ciriello said his interest was in urban design, noting a longtime interest in how cities grew. And he recalled that, after his first trip as a high school exchange student, he returned to then-West Germany and got the chance to go to then-West Berlin. In 1990, he got the chance to go the reunited Berlin. “I think of Berlin as the biggest American city in Europe,” Ciriello said, referring to the German seat of government as having grown up at the same time as U.S. cities. “People used to compare it to Chicago,” he added. Like U.S. cities, the automobile is important in Berlin and the highways Please see KERR-TAR, page 3A

The nobles, wearing their Fez’s and green shirts, worked tirelessly to make this a successful event to the delight of Wal-Mart customers who gave generously to the charitable cause.

In particular, Imran Temple nobles have visited the Greenville, S.C., Shriner Hospital for Children that is near and dear to their hearts and have witnessed the plight of children who are in great anticipation of potential help. Although their attention has been focused on the Greenville Shriners Hospital of South Carolina, funds raised will benefit all of the Shriners Children’s Hospitals in the United States. Shriners provide free hospital and medical care to children and need adequate funding to continue these worthwhile efforts. Funds collected by Imran Temple #168 along with the funds collected by the other 16 temples in the State was compiled into a single check that was presented to the Shriners Children’s Hospital Charity Fund.

The federal Constitution requires a census every decade, with the Census Bureau to have to submit the population total to President Obama by Dec. 31 of next year. The figures are used to apportion the 435 U.S. House districts. The U.S. population is more than 307.2 million. North Carolina’s 2008 population is estimated at more than 9.2 million, which is a 14.6 percent increase from 2000. And Raleigh and Cary rank among the top 10 fastest growing municipalities in the nation. Additionally, North Carolina gained a House seat as a result of the 2000 Census. That seat is held by U.S. Rep. Brad Miller, a Democrat whose district includes most of Granville County, and some news reports say the state could gain another seat after the 2010 Census. And Mackey noted that census data helps potential homeowners research property values and noted that food service and pharmacy chains use census

Ciriello replaced Shelby Powell, who joined a team of transportation planners at the Raleigh-based Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO). Powell, a Raleigh resident, cited her being a single mother of a 2-year-old son as the reason for the job change. Kerr-Tar was paying Powell $56,628 a year. Her salary at CAMPO is $58,339. She holds two degrees from East Carolina University: a bachelor’s in urban and regional planning; and a master’s in business, with an emphasis on environmental planning.

groundbreaking was in May. Ciriello officially joined Raleigh’s government in 1999, with his job being to review development plans. In 2001, he was hired by nearby Knightdale’s government as long-range planner. He served there until 2003, when he went to work for Huntersville’s government as land use and transportation planner. Huntersville is near Charlotte. In 2004, he entered the private sector, joining Skybrook LLC as a project manager, but he said he was laid off a few years later because of economic conditions. He went to work for Duvall Investment Group, which is in the property management business, before joining Kerr-Tar. He now lives in the Oak Hill

inmates at Butner would be counted as living in Granville County. Howe said yes. Creedmoor Mayor Darryl Moss advised Alligood that one thing needing to be on the radar screen is to talk about redistricting at the County Commission and County Board of Education levels. Alligood expressed a bit of sadness about what he called “conspiracy theories” and added, “I read a local blog recently that drew some questions about the census and about its integrity and different things.” “The big joke is, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’ Well, that’s always funny, but sometimes people take that seriously. And what we want people to know is you really do need to be counted. It’s a good thing and it will help us all,” Alligood said.
data to determine where they will put new locations. Granville County’s 2008 population was estimated at slightly more than 57,000, a 17.6 percent increase from 2000. Mackey, aware of the county’s growing Hispanic population (slightly more than 6 percent), noted census forms will be available in Spanish. And Mackey said a goal of Census Bureau workers in North Carolina is to have a response rate meeting and hopefully exceeding the national average. The national average was 67 percent, while the statewide average was 64 percent. Granville County was in line with the statewide average, while Vance County’s response rate was 58 percent and Warren County’s response rate was 52 percent. Mackey noted one county, Dare, which is on the Outer Banks, only had a 36 percent response rate. The Granville Chamber of Commerce’s Johnny Balmer wanted to know whether the federal prison
receiving by mail what will be the shortest census form in U.S. history. There will be 10 questions each for the heads of households, with each remaining members of households to have to answer seven questions. Census Bureau officials are anticipating receiving the responses by the start of April. And from May to July, Census Bureau workers will call on those who did not respond via mail. Howe and Mackey emphasized they and the rest of those with the Census Bureau are required by federal law not to disclose any information they receive to anyone outside the bureau for 72 years. And the punishment for violating such trust is up to five years in prison and/ or up to a $250,000 fine. Census workers will be identified by Census badges and bags, with Census workers to show a driver’s license if requested and to allow the calling of a supervisor or a Census Bureau office for verification.

Jury: Man acted in self-defense in wife’s death MOCKSVILLE (AP) — A jury says a North Carolina man accused of killing his wife acted in self-defense Multiple media outlets report that a Davie County jury deliberated seven hours over two days before finding Friday that Kirk Alan Turner killed his wife, Jennifer, in self-defense. Prosecutors had said Turner slashed his wife’s throat twice with a pocketknife in September 2007 because he was angry over their pending divorce. Defense attorneys said Turner killed his wife in self-defense after she stabbed him twice in the thigh with a 7-foot spear.

Sometime between 4:30 and 5 p.m., the then-28year-old Kelly Currin Morris’ 2005 Honda Accord was found abandoned approximately a mile away at a future subdivision, with her cell phone, pocketbook and other personal belongings still inside the car. On Sept. 12, the SBI concluded the house fire had been set deliberately. Then-Sheriff David Smith

GHS digital mammography a new service OXFORD — Granville Health System (GHS) announced that local area residents now have access to digital mammography services at the health system’s Oxford hospital, Granville Medical Center. GHS is one of the first hospitals in the area to offer this service. The system uses an improved imaging plate which is warmed, providing a more comfortable procedure. The digital mammography area offers updated artwork and quiet music, which help provide a calm and relaxing experience. Dr. Michael Stoll, GHS medical director of imaging services, says that digital mammography offers shorter exam times and produces better image quality. “Immediately following the exam, the images are displayed on the technologist’s monitor and ready for review,” said Stoll. Digital mammography is viewed as an improved technology because the images are digitally enhanced for easier detection of abnormalities. The contrast can be adjusted to be made brighter, for example, and the technologist or radiologist can magnify areas of interest. Previously, studies captured on film did not allow this level of image enhancement. The American Cancer Society recommends that women over 40 get an annual mammogram, obtain an annual clinical breast exam by a health care professional and perform monthly breast self-exams. Women who are at higher than average risk of breast cancer should seek expert medical advice about whether they should begin screening before age 40 and the frequency of screening that is best for them. The hospital is located at 1010 College St. in Oxford. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call (919) 690-3420.

for them or their operation. The checklist is available on NRCS Web sites and at NRCS field offices. After the self-screening, the producer’s current and proposed conservation activities are entered in the conservation measurement tool (CMT). This tool estimates the level of environmental performance to be achieved by a producer implementing and maintaining conservation activities. The conservation performance estimated by the CMT will be used to rank applications. A producer must treat at least one resource concern and one priority resource concern during the length of the CSP’s five-year contract. North Carolina will select between three and five priority resource concerns, one of the criteria that will be used to rank applications. The State Technical Committee will advise the NRCS State Conservationist in selecting priority resource concerns.
North Carolina will establish ranking pools to rank applications with similar resource concerns. The state’s priority resource concerns are water quality, soil erosion, soil quality, water quantity, animals and plants. Land enrolled in the Conservation Security Program, Conservation Reserve Program, Grasslands Reserve Program and Wetlands Reserve Program are ineligible for the new CSP. The new CSP is very different from the old Conservation Security Program. Under the old program, producers were eligible if they were in the selected watersheds. All contracts under the old CSP will be honored until the end of the contract term. For more information about the new CSP, visit www.nrcs.usda.gov/new_ csp/.

U.S. Lockerbie families to protest at U.N. By SAMANTHA HENRY Associated Press Writer
NEWARK, N.J. — Relatives of Americans killed when Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up over Lockerbie, Scotland, plan to converge on New York City in September to protest Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s speech at the United Nations. Family members are furious that convicted Libyan bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi was released from a Scottish prison Thursday and was greeted al-Megrahi in Libya by cheering crowds. He and his family also met later with Gadhafi. Susan Cohen, whose 20-year-old daughter, Theodora, died in the attack, called the release “a triumph for terrorism” and said Gadhafi is to blame. “Look what we’ve come to be, a man blows up an American plane and now here he (Gadhafi) is rolling into New York in triumph,” she said, adding sarcastically, “That’s wonderful. Makes the world safer, doesn’t it?” In his Friday meeting, broadcast by Libyan state television, Gadhafi praised Scotland’s “humane decision” to free al-Megrahi. He compared al-Megrahi’s return to his government’s 2007 release of five Bulgarian nurses and a naturalized Palestinian doctor accused of deliberately infecting hundreds of Libyan children. The nurses denied the charges and said they were tortured into confessing. Gadhafi noted there

gan said in an interview after the call. “We were led to believe there wouldn’t be any ‘dancing in the end zone,’ as I call it, but that’s what happened.” Instead, members focused on logistics for the Gadhafi protest, tentatively planned for Sept. 23, along with plans for the upcoming 21st anniversary of the Dec. 21, 1988, bombing, which killed 270 people. The anniversary event will be held at Syracuse University, where 35 of the victims went to school. “These are the things we’re working on, things that are important to us,” Dugan said, adding that no final plans have been made for the Gadhafi demonstration. Dugan said earlier his group had been receiving calls from a wide variety of organizations that plan to join the protest. Cohen said she had even been contacted by a local group of Scottish immigrants who planned to protest their government’s actions on behalf of the Pan Am families. Dugan did not lose any family members on the flight but joined the victims group after serving on the commission appointed by former President George H.W. Bush that investigated the bombing.

Two killed in small plane crash near Ohio football scrimmage CINCINNATI (AP) — Officials say two people have been killed when a biplane crashed near a football scrimmage at an Ohio high school. The Ohio State Highway Patrol said the singleengine plane took off Friday night from West Harrison Airport, and crashed within minutes. Sgt. Clint Arnold says it wasn’t immediately known if the plane lost power. Officials say the pilot and a female passenger died in the crash near McNicholas High School in Harrison. Parent Ed Meyer says
he saw the plane go down as he was watching his son play football. He says “it was so sad to see, but there was nothing you could do.” The names of the deceased have not been released.

Rioting inmates set Ky. prison ablaze By JEFFREY McMURRAY Associated Press Writer
BURGIN, Ky. — Rioting inmates set fire to trash cans and other items inside a central Kentucky prison, and damage to some buildings was so extensive that officials were busing many of the facility’s 1,200 prisoners elsewhere, police said Saturday. By early morning, firefighters had extinguished the fires at the medium-security Northpoint Training Center in a rural area 30 miles south of Lexington, state police Lt. David Jude said. Eight inmates were treated for minor injuries, and eight staff were also injured in the melee, although none was admitted to the hospital, said Cheryl Million, a spokeswoman for the Kentucky Department of Corrections. Officers in riot gear rushed the prisoners with tear gas about 9 p.m. Friday, and all the inmates were subdued in less than two

Six buildings had burned, including a kitchen, medical center, canteen and visitation area. Million also said all but one of the dormitories, a 196-bed unit, were damaged and uninhabitable. A bus carrying some 42 inmates deemed higher security risks left the property shortly after 6 a.m., heading to an undisclosed facility. It was not clear how many other inmates would have to be moved.

Neb. man stole Virgin Mary painting to pay for abortion By TIMBERLY ROSS Associated Press Writer
OMAHA, Neb. — A Nebraska man who stole a painting of the Virgin Mary to finance an abortion for a teen he raped has been convicted of firstdegree sexual assault and felony theft. Aurelio VallerilloSanchez, 39, of Omaha pleaded no contest to the charges Friday and faces up to 70 years in prison when sentenced in October, Douglas County prosecutor Brenda Beadle said Saturday. A call to the county public defender representing Vallerillo-Sanchez wasn’t answered Saturday. Beadle said VallerilloSanchez fled to Mexico with the 300-year-old painting worth $100,000 and the pregnant teen in March 2007. “The plan was that when they got to Mexico, she was to undergo an abortion,” she said. When an abortion wasn’t possible, VallerilloSanchez pushed to have the baby given up for
adoption, Beadle said: “He wanted to do everything he could to get rid of this baby ‘cause it was evidence against him.” The teen returned to Nebraska after giving birth, the prosecutor said. Vallerillo-Sanchez was arrested in February after DNA linked him to the September 2006 assault of the then-14-year-old girl. His children gave police information about the theft during the investigation into the sexual assault. His son told police he served as a lookout as his father stole the painting from St. Cecilia Cathedral in Omaha. VallerilloSanchez sold the painting for $3,000 in Mexico, his daughter told police. Vallerillo-Sanchez has been linked to at least four other thefts in the Omaha area, but charges were not filed as part of a plea deal, Beadle said.

would be able to stay at Northpoint, Million said. Jude said the prisoners were being kept in an outdoor courtyard surrounded by prison guards. Police formed a perimeter around the outside of the facility to make sure no one escaped. Portable toilets were brought in, and prison officials were using temporary food stations to feed the prisoners because the fire in the kitchen destroyed much of the prison’s food supply.

say what caused of the rioting, which began around 6:30 p.m. Friday. Prison spokeswoman Mendolyn Cochran said Friday the prison had been on lockdown since Tuesday, when one group of inmates assaulted two others, The Advocate-Messenger of Danville reported. Later Friday, some inmates started setting fires in trash cans, she said. Million would not confirm the report, saying only that some of the fires started in trash cans and that some inmates had access to matches because smoking is allowed in parts of the prison. Northpoint has more than 1,100 general population inmates housed in six openbay dormitories, according to its Web site. Another 60 special management inmates are housed in single cells in a separate structure, and 40 minimum-security inmates are housed in another separate structure. It opened in 1983 and has a staff of 285.
Md., Va. among top 10 states with newly naturalized citizens WASHINGTON (AP) — Maryland and Virginia are among the nation’s top 10 states with newly naturalized U.S. citizens. According to a report by the Department of Homeland Security, nearly 30,000 people became citizens last year in Virginia, which ranked seventh in the top 10. Maryland landed in 10th place, with 23,000 naturalized citizens. Almost 4 percent of all residents who became
citizens last year lived in the Washington area, the report said. The region ranked fifth among metropolitan areas with the most foreign nationals who became citizens. Nationally, naturalizations grew from about 660,000 in 2007 to more than 1 million in 2008, a 58 percent increase. The report says that in 2008, California had the most naturalizations with 300,000. Wyoming had the least, with 245.
Minor earthquake rattles central Alaska ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A small earthquake has shaken central Alaska. The Alaska Earthquake Information Center says a magnitude 3.6 temblor struck at 9:46 p.m. Friday about 45 miles southeast of Cantwell and 53 miles southeast of Denali National Park.
The quake followed a magnitude 5.0 earthquake that rattled buildings Wednesday in Anchorage and other communities in Alaska, but didn’t result in any damage. The center said Saturday it has not received any reports of Friday’s quake being felt or causing damage.

Inmates held in isolation after escape attempt COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Three maximum security South Carolina inmates are in isolation after authorities discovered a tunnel they had dug as part of an escape plan. The Post and Courier of Charleston reports Saturday that Corrections Department officials say the
inmates dug a 45-foot-long tunnel underneath Lieber Correctional Institution. Last month, prison officials were tipped off about a hole in the concrete floor of an inmate work area. Investigators think the men drilled through the floor, threw out the dirt and hid the tunnel with a
metal trough. Corrections spokesman Josh Gelinas says Cazario Marshall, Oscar Beecher McDowell and Willie Parker, all of whom are serving 30 years or more in prison, have been sentenced to about a year in isolation and could face federal escape charges.

Man wanted in shooting in Oxford still at large By WILLIAM F. WEST Daily Dispatch Writer
OXFORD — Police need the public’s help finding an 18-year-old man who is wanted for assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill and possession of a weapon of mass destruction in connection with the Aug. 13 early afternoon shooting along Peace Street in southeastern Oxford. Tevon Jones, whose last known address was 4166 Arthur Currin Road, was last seen with a sawed off shotgun, police said. Police said that Jones is 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 165-175 Jones pounds and that his hair was braided, but that he has been known to wear his hair in an Afro style. Two others were arrested in connection with the shooting, which police have said appears to be gang related. The two, who are cousins, are Xavier Bobbitt, 18, and Joshua Bobbitt, 21, both of 111 Summitt Ave. Xavier Bobbitt, who was jailed in lieu of $75,000 bond, was charged by police with discharging a firearm in the city limits, possession of a stolen firearm and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The Granville County Sheriff’s Department on Aug. 14 additionally charged him with felony breaking and entering a motor vehicle, felony larceny of a firearm and misdemeanor larceny. No bond was listed for the sheriff’s charges. Joshua Bobbitt, who was jailed in lieu of $70,000 bond, was charged by police with possession of a stolen firearm and possession of a firearm by
a convicted felon. Anyone with any information is urged to phone police at (919) 693-3161, go to the police station at 204 E.. McClanahan St., phone Granville Crime
Stoppers at (919) 693-3100 or approach the nearest law enforcement officer. Contact the writer at bwest@ hendersondispatch.com.

Daily Meditation The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head. Proverbs 20:29
Our Opinion
Misplaced compassion In the name of compassion, Scotland has released the one man convicted for the Lockerbie bombing, the downing of Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988 that killed 270 people, most of them Americans. FBI Director Robert Mueller has rebuked Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill, who set free Abdel Baset al-Megrahi to let the convicted bomber, reportedly suffering from terminal prostate cancer, die at home in Libya. Mueller has a vested interest in the case. Before becoming the FBI’s chief, he worked for eight years as a Justice Department lawyer leading the investigation that finally resulted in Megrahi’s supposed life sentence in prison. There were, however, alleged flaws in that case, allegations of a miscarriage of justice, even claims that Megrahi and the Libyan government were framed for the bombing. This despite the fact that, after Megrahi’s conviction, Libya offered a $2.7 billion settlement to the families of Lockerbie victims — $10 million per murdered soul — an uncommon act, we should think, for a nation that would have known whether it really bore responsibility. Nevertheless, a growing list of individuals, including United Nations observers and Scottish lawyers, think Megrahi was wrongfully convicted. He was due a second appeal in April of this year, but it never began. Megrahi withdrew his request for an appeal when he was diagnosed with cancer, and clearly a deal was struck to let him out with no further courtroom revelations. And that is a miscarriage of justice. The evidence against Megrahi wasn’t exactly rock-solid. And his alleged co-conspirator, Al Amin Khalifa Fhimah, was acquitted, in part, perhaps, because evidence that could’ve corroborated diary entries of his suggesting he provided luggage tags to Megrahi that got the bomb-laden suitcase on Pam Am 103 was suppressed at trial. (Not very indicative of an international frame-up.) Five Scottish judges sitting in a neutralsite, Netherlands courtroom, ultimately found Megrahi guilty. But in 2007, the Scottish legal system determined Megrahi deserved another appeal based on at least four holes poked in the prosecution’s case, though some of the holes themselves have holes. • The defense claims that U.S. CIA documents supposedly concerning the Swissmade, Mebo brand timer allegedly used to detonate the bomb aboard Pan Am Flight 103, were provided to the prosecution, but not the defense. • Tony Gauci, a chief prosecution witness at the trial, is alleged by Megrahi supporters to have been paid $2 million for testifying against Megrahi. • Mebo’s co-founder and owner, Edwin Bollier, has made claims that in 1991 the FBI offered him $4 million to testify that the timer fragment found near the crash scene was part of one of his company’s Mebo MST-13 devices, some of which were sold to Libya. After Megrahi’s second appeal was already approved, however, Bollier made claims in a BBC documentary that the Libyan government offered him $200 million to “help get (Megrahi) out of prison” and that he still hopes to be paid. … Which bribe is true? More pertinent and obvious, which bribe is more compelling? • And, a former employee of Mebo, Ulrich Lumpert, swore in an affidavit in July 2007 that he stole a prototype MST-13 timer in 1989 and handed it over to Lockerbie investigators, presumably to be splintered and serve as fake evidence against Megrahi. It could be possible that Megrahi did not commit the crime. That’s what the second appeal was supposed to be for — determining whether he is guilty, or was framed. Meanwhile, if the 57-year-old Megrahi — supposedly in his last two or three months of life — reaches age 60 or beyond, anger on this side of the pond should rise. Scotland owed it to Megrahi, to the world’s observers, and most important to the families of Pam Am 103 victims to finally get to the bottom of what happened in that fateful event — or at least whether the man convicted of the mass murder was really guilty. In letting Abdel Baset al-Megrahi walk free to die at home without finding the truth, Scotland has shown compassion to one man who very well might deserve none. And, Scotland has denied both compassion and justice to the loved ones of Pan Am Flight 103’s 270 dead — scores of people who deserved much better.

The mother of all parties This column was originally published Jan. 25, 2004. Things are tense in our house. Our daughter is about to turn 4, which means we have to hold a birthday party, which means my wife is, at the moment, insane. Like many moms, my wife believes that a child’s birthday party requires as much planning as a lunar landing--more, actually, because you have to hire a clown. Serious moms plan birthday parties months in advance, choosing a theme-Bob the Builder, Disney Princesses, Snoop Doggy Dogg, etc.--and relentlessly incorporating this theme in every element of the party, including invitations, decorations, music, games, craft projects, snacks, cake, entertainment, favors, little gift bags for the favors, ribbons for the little gift bags for the favors, name tags for the ribbons for the little gift bags for the favors, and on and on until the mom has lost all touch with human reality. If you want proof, go to one of the Internet sites devoted to birthday planning, such as birthdaypartyideas. com, where moms report, in detail, the deranged lengths to which they have gone to stage birthday parties for small children. They sound like this:
“Our theme for Meghan’s third birthday was ‘The Enchanted Fairy Forest.’ To create a ‘forest’ in the family room, I made full-size ‘trees’ out of fiberglass, which I painted brown and festooned with 17,000 ‘leaves’ I cut by hand from green felt, acDave cented with Barry live squirTribune Media rels that Services I caught using a galvanized-steel trap baited with Peter Pan creamy peanut butter. For the ‘forest floor,’ I brought in four tons of mulch with a Lawn Boy yard tractor. For the ‘sky,’ I used the actual sky, which was visible because I removed the ceiling and roof with a chainsaw, which is when my husband, Ed, left me, but the overall effect was well worth it.” You think I’m exaggerating, but that’s only because you haven’t browsed “birthdaypartyideas.com.” It would be different if dads planned birthday parties. First off, the party would be about a month after the child’s actual
birthday, which is when Dad would remember it. Dad’s party theme would be “delivery pizza,” which would also serve as the cake, the craft project and the party favor. The entertainment would be pulling Dad’s finger. The kids would have just as much fun. But of course Dad is not entrusted with birthday-party planning, at least not in our house, where the entire massive burden falls on my wife, causing her to become increasingly unbalanced. Last year, our theme was “The Wizard of Oz,” and my wife decided that, among many other touches, we needed to transform our front walkway into a Yellow Brick Road by covering it with a roll of yellow plastic that she bought from the House of Really Slippery Surfaces. On the day of the party, it was raining, so I suggested that maybe, for safety, we should not do the Yellow Brick Road. Her feeling was, yes, there could be injuries, even deaths, BUT WE WILL HAVE A YELLOW BRICK ROAD. And so we did. Our theme this year is “The Little Mermaid.” My wife was happy about this until she found out that another girl in our daughter’s preschool class was having a birthday party two months before our daugh-
Letters Praise for bus drivers To the editor: Each morning when I drive to work I realize that just about everything is the same. Just about everything with the exception of big yellow school buses. The summertime seems to strange without those big yellow things all over the road! We at Zeb Vance Elementary School have six buses that pick up at least 300 students to school and back home safely each day during the school year. Each year I try to think of something that could possibly be good enough to show my appreciation for all they do for our school. I could always buy a mug that says, “I bus students around,” or a shirt that says “Best Bus Driver in the World.” I could even get them a groovy pen and sticky note set with a magnet on it to attach to their dashboard, but for some reason those just don’t express to our drivers how crucial they are to our school. Not a single bought item could thank them for what a phenomenal job they do for our school! The drivers at Zeb Vance are Wanda Eley, Petronia Hicks, Earnest Owen, Jean Reavis, Denise Roberson, Mark Somerville and our loyal sub Nick Reavis. I have never worked with such loyal and dedicated people. These drivers wake
before the roosters and drive in the dark to provide safe travel for our students each morning. Sometimes the buses are so cold in the winter that the windshield wipers take forever to even begin working! They know each child by name and greet them each morning with love. They think twice before leaving even a fifth grader at a stop if the normal pick up person is not present. Each driver takes their job very seriously and wants what is best for the students. We have excellent behavior on our buses because the students and drivers treat each other with the utmost respect. They treat each other like family. It is a rare occasion that our drivers are absent because their work ethic is so strong! What a huge responsibility to drive something larger than some houses filled with other people’s precious treasures! I am in awe of the abilities of our drivers and I am proud to call them my teammates! A mug or shirt just doesn’t cut it as far as I am concerned. All I could imagine to do to show my appreciation is make you aware of their importance! You just make sure that when you do see those big yellow buses begin to make their travels around Henderson … give them a thumbs up! They deserve your respect for they most definitely have mine!

Oxford an example of how Henderson used to be back in the day To the editor: I was riding through Oxford last week around lunch time and I noticed people going about their day either shopping or going to lunch in and around Main Street and there was a hustle and bustle that was so refreshing. I hope there are residents who live in Henderson and Vance County that can still remember back when we had all of that. If my memory is correct, we use to have that type of city. There was Christian Harward, Vance, Henderson and Penny’s furniture stores within a two-block radius to purchase your furniture needs. From there you could stop into Hocutt’s Drug, Page’s Drug or the drug store that the Tolson’s ran for a soda or sandwich. Then mosey on into Western Auto, Leggett’s, J.C. Penny’s, Davis’ and Roth Stewart’s to browse and shop. There was also Barnett’s and Hoyle’s jewelers if you had jewelry on your mind and I am sure there were other stores I did not mention, but as I stated in my third sentence my memory may not remember them all but 14 is pretty good.
ter’s, and her theme was ALSO “The Little Mermaid.” It’s the kind of nightmare you think always happens to other people, but never to you. The other girl’s parents are very nice people, but because they used my wife’s theme, she viewed them as the enemy. She feared that their party would be better than ours, and these fears worsened when we got to the enemy house and discovered that the enemy mom had used a professional party planner, who had not only done serious undersea decorations involving gauze, but had also provided, for entertainment, a mermaid, a pirate AND a sea goddess. “A sea goddess!” my wife said, and the despair in her voice was real. But she is not giving up. She spotted some weaknesses in the enemy party’s game plan: For example, there was no clown. If you can imagine. My wife has located a clown that she believes will kick the sea goddess’ butt. My wife has other plans, which I will not reveal here, because you never know who could be reading this. Suffice it to say that when the day comes, we’ll be ready. For my part, I will do exactly as I am told. But if I hear a chainsaw, I’m gone.

But, the piece de resistance was Rose’s and Woolworth’s dime stores where you could go and hang out with friends, buy a hot dog or candy and sneak into the majestic Embassy and Stevenson’s theaters for a matinee. The Saturday afternoons spent there and all of the other above stores left an indelible impression. Can we honestly say that urban growth is good? Can we say that we need an Economic Development Group, Zoning Board, or Rezoning board telling everyone what we need? So far it doesn’t appear to be working and everything that we had on main street has moved further away and all of the places that residents could go and spend the day shopping have disappeared, while Oxford’s main street keeps getting better and better. Our options for grocery shopping faded away when one chain took every corner in Henderson, and why can’t we get a Harris Teeter or a Kroger, and how I miss Lowe’s? But my biggest question is where is our Target? As the next local elections come up, vote with your heart along with other residents who still have memories of how our city and count use to be.

News Briefs Elizabeth Edwards opens Chapel Hill furniture store CHAPEL HILL (AP) — The wife of a former North Carolina senator and presidential candidate has opened a furniture store. Multiple media outlets report that Elizabeth Edwards opened the store called Red Window in downtown Chapel Hill Saturday. Edwards says the store will have styles similar to The Red Door, a charity store her mother managed in Japan. Edwards’ husband, former Sen. John Edwards, also attended the opening. He confessed last year to an affair with Rielle Hunter, a videographer on his 2008 presidential campaign. Elizabeth Edwards
says she’s trying to ignore tabloid reports that her husband fathered Hunter’s child. A federal grand jury is investigating whether the candidate’s campaign funds were illegally paid to Hunter to keep quiet about the affair.
Ex-deputy helps save N.C. couple in submerged car WILMINGTON (AP) — A former sheriff’s deputy was one of a handful of people whose quick thinking kept a North Carolina couple from drowning after their car plunged into a retention pond. The Star-News of Wilmington reports Saturday that Christopher Long was among those who jumped
into the water and pulled 78-year-old John William Protenic and 75-year-old Joann Delores Protenic from a sinking car on Friday. The Protenics were caught up in heavy storms that struck the area, causing up to three inches of water in some places. They were taken to the hospital to be checked out. Police say Long was fired from his job as a New Hanover County sheriff’s deputy after fatally shooting a college student through a door in 2006.
Priest convicted of $1 million theft dies at Butner facility BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — The Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport says a Connecticut priest
who pleaded guilty to stealing more than $1 million from a Darien parish to support a lavish lifestyle has died. The diocese says the Rev. Michael Jude Fay died on Saturday morning. Fay, who had prostate cancer, was serving a three-year sentence at Butner Federal Correctional Complex in North Carolina after being convicted in December 2007. No further details were available. Fay’s death came a day a judge refused to dismiss a suit against the diocese by a former bookkeeper at St. John Roman Catholic Church. Bethany D’Erario says she was harassed for exposing Fay’s crimes. Fay set up secret bank accounts and spent the money on international travel, expensive gifts and a Florida condominium.

Healthy Moment
Hypertension, the Silent Killer Hypertension, because of its ability to be present without symptoms, has become known as the “silent killer.” What is your blood pressure? A normal reading is below 120/80. When it goes above this reading, it should be followed closely. The diagnosis should not be made from just one or two readings. The blood pressure will vary depending on heart rate, excitement, and just being in your doctor’s office. When the readings are consistently high, your doctor will consider several factors which may be affecting your blood pressure. Use of tobacco, alcohol, coffee and salt may contribute to the elevated readings. These are all life-style factors which can be changed. Losing weight and increasing your physical activity may be all that is needed to control mild hypertension. When dietary and life-style changes do not control the blood pressure, medicines are usually started. A wide variety of medicines are available, and the best choice often depends on your age and medical conditions, such as diabetes or asthma. When the readings are extremely high, there is an immediate risk of a stroke or heart attack until it is controlled. Hospitalization to treat the blood pressure and protect against these complications may be necessary. A person’s blood pressure may increase with age, so yearly checks are needed. Early treatment can help prevent the complications of heart attacks, strokes and kidney failure.

Ahead of fire storm
Local inhabitants evacuate the scene of a fire outside Marathon, northeast of Athens, Saturday. A wildfire was raging unchecked, fanned by high winds, burning a pine forest, brushes and olive groves. Three vilages near Marathon were cut off, firefighters said. The military reported that anti-aircraft missiles have been moved from a base near Marathon. Since early Saturday, 75 fires have been reported across Greece. Near Athens, authorities evacuated two children’s hospitals, camp sites, villages and suburban areas.
MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) — Islamic insurgents attacked a government checkpoint in Somalia’s capital on Saturday, sparking a gun battle that killed at least five people on the first day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Insurgents seeking to overthrow Somalia’s Western-backed government have been threatening to increase attacks during Ramadan, a monthlong period of prayer, reflection and sunrise-tosunset fasts. Somalia has been ravaged by violence and anarchy since warlords overthrew dictator Mohamed Siad Barre in 1991, then turned on each other. The al-Shabab insurgent group, which has foreign fighters in its ranks, operates openly in the capital and seeks to overthrow the government and impose a strict form of Islam in Somalia.
South Korean president to meet visiting N. Koreans By KWANG-TAE KIM Associated Press Writer
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korean President Lee Myung-bak will meet a delegation of visiting North Korean officials on Sunday, a government official said, as a report said they were bearing a message from the communist country’s leader. Relations between Pyongyang and Seoul have been tense since Lee took office in February 2008. The visit comes amid recent signs of a thaw in relations between the two sides, which have remained divided since the end of the Korean War in 1953. South Korea said the North Korean officials requested a meeting with Lee. Tensions between the Koreas have spiked in
Saturday’s violence follows a week in which more than 60 people were killed across the country as insurgents and government forces try to hold onto their territory. Many experts fear the country’s lawlessness could provide a haven for al-Qaida, offering a place for terrorists to train and gather strength — much like Afghanistan in the 1990s. The United States accuses al-Shabab of having ties to the terror network, which al-Shabab denies. Attempts to stabilize the country have failed. Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, a moderate Islamist, was elected president in January in hopes that he could unite the country’s feuding factions, but the violence has continued. And as of June 30, the African Union peacekeeping force in Mogadishu had 4,300 troops, from Uganda and Burundi, just 54 percent of its authorized strength of 8,000.
BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq’s foreign minister said Saturday that those who carried out suicide bombings that targeted government buildings in the Iraqi capital received help to pull off the attacks, possibly from Iraqi security forces. Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki has ordered security tightened and concrete blast walls to remain around potential targets in the aftermath of the attacks, reversing an order earlier this month to remove the walls in Baghdad by mid-September. The blasts Wednesday primarily targeted government buildings, including the foreign and finance ministries, killing at least 101 people and wounding more than 500. Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said attacks were so well planned and executed that he would not rule out the possible collaboration of
members of Iraq’s security forces with attackers. The Iraqi military announced it arrested members of the insurgent cell responsible for the attacks but gave no details about the suspects. Zebari said the ministry was investigating how the trucks carrying the bombs were allowed to pass into areas where they are banned from traveling. He said the prime minister ordered the arrest of officers from several branches of Iraq’s security forces as part of an investigation into security lapses that allowed the trucks to park near the ministries. The violence comes as the U.S. has halted combat operations under a U.S.Iraq security pact that saw American troops withdraw from Iraqi cities on June 30. Under the pact, U.S. forces will withdraw from Iraq by the end of 2011.

It also withdrew from six-nation nuclear disarmament negotiations in April. But earlier this month the North released two detained U.S. reporters after a visit to Pyongyang by former President Bill Clinton. The country also let a South Korean worker it had detained for months return home, although it continues to hold four South Korean fishermen whose boat strayed into northern waters in July. North Korea also said recently it would lift restrictions on cross-border traffic with South Korea, resume cargo train service across the border and restart tourism ventures with Seoul.
Pakistani Taliban say new leader chosen KHAR, Pakistan (AP) — Leading Pakistani Taliban commander Hakimullah Mehsud has been appointed the new head of the militant group, the aide to another commander said Saturday, weeks after Washington and Islamabad said the militants’ chief, Baitullah Mehsud, was almost certainly killed by a missile strike. Bakht Zada, a close aide to commander Maulvi Faqir Mohammad, told The Associated Press that a 42-member Taliban council, or shura, appointed a new head because Baitullah was ill. Top Taliban commanders have insisted Baitullah was not killed by an Aug. 5 CIA missile strike, but they have provided no proof he is still alive. A captured Taliban
spokesman reportedly acknowledged to authorities earlier this week that Baitullah was dead. Pakistan’s Taliban is a loose alliance of disparate groups and tribal factions, and government and intelligence officials have said they are embroiled in a bitter leadership struggle which could lead them to deny their leader is dead until a firm replacement is found. Hakimullah Mehsud, the 28-year-old military chief of Baitullah’s Tehrike-Taliban Pakistan, or Pakistani Taliban Movement, commanded three tribal regions and has a reputation as Baitullah’s most ruthless deputy. He had been considered one of the top contenders to take over.
Woman in Kuwait dies of swine flu after giving birth KUWAIT CITY (AP) — Kuwait says a young woman has died from swine flu days after she gave birth to a baby by Caesarian section. She is the country’s second person to succumb to the disease. The state-owned Kuwait News Agency quoted Health Ministry spokesman Youssef al-Nisf as saying Saturday the
woman also suffered from acute pneumonia in addition to swine flu. He said she was eight months pregnant when she was admitted to the hospital Aug. 12. The C-section was performed the following day and the woman was then admitted to intensive care. The official did not elaborate on the baby’s condition.

Riley, Garcia lead after rainy day at Wyndham By JOEDY McCREARY AP Sports Writer
GREENSBORO — Sergio Garcia followed through on a fairway shot when he heard a noise that has become all too familiar this weekend at Sedgefield Country Club. The air horn sounded once again, signifying yet another weather delay at a Wyndham Championship — where most of the movement on “Moving Day” involved scurrying to the clubhouse to beat the waves of showers.
Garcia and Chris Riley were both 13 under par through 10 holes to share the clubhouse lead Saturday night when play was stopped midway through the third round of the rain-plagued tournament. Steve Marino, Fred Couples, Kevin Stadler and Justin Rose were 12 under and Brandt Snedeker and Bill Haas were 11 under through varying stages of their rounds when play was suspended due to darkness. Tournament officials said the round was scheduled to resume Sunday at 7:30 a.m., with a
second cut and the final round to begin at roughly 11 a.m. “These are tough weeks,” Riley said. “Seems like we’ve been doing this all year but, you know, going to bed at 10 (p.m.) and waking up at 5 (a.m.) to play golf ... we’re athletes. So I guess we can do it.” During yet another long day with abbreviated play at the Donald Ross-designed course at Sedgefield — where two weather AP Photo/Chuck Burton delays combined to last nearly 5 1/2 hours — there were a few Sergio Garcia watches his shot from the fourth fairway during the third round of the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Please see WYNDHAM, page 5B Greensboro Saturday.

Schmidt: Pete Rose banned long enough By MIKE SCHMIDT For The Associated Press
It’s been 20 years since Pete Rose was banned for life from baseball by then-commissioner Bart Giamatti. Recently the subject came back to life, recycling the same old issues, without attention to some interesting elements that should be mentioned on the 20th anniversary. An interesting question was posed to me in a recent interview: Do you think things would have been different if Mr. Giamatti was still alive? Bart Giamatti, the commissioner on duty in 1989, was in possession of strong evidence that Pete had indeed placed bets on his team. Pete insisted he was being set up and that it could not be factually proven. Armed with secret information from an in-depth investigation, Giamatti diplomatically offered Pete a deal — if Pete would agree to a lifetime ban, baseball would not expose its evidence and Pete could go away quietly. First, from Pete’s perspective as one of baseball’s superstars, almost to the point of believing he could beat anything from a traffic ticket to armed robbery, he saw that the agreement offered him an out, the right to apply for reinstatement every year. Why else would he have signed it, why else would he agree to a lifetime ban under any circumstances? Yes, you, I, and he know he was living a lie at the time. But assuming that burden would eventually get too heavy Please see ROSE, page 3B

J.F. Webb’s Kelby Perren fights for the ball with Northern Durham players during Saturday’s championship game in the Oxford Family Physicians Classic. Webb won 4-1.
Warriors claim tourney title By ERIC S. ROBINSON Dispatch Sports Editor
OXFORD — J.F. Webb was aggressive early, scoring three goals in the first 14 minutes in a 4-1 victory over Northern Durham to claim the Oxford Family Physicians Classic championship Saturday night. The first three shots the Warriors made hit the back of the
net. They withstood a surge from Northern Durham in the second half, who out-shot them and controlled possession for most of the half. The Warriors didn’t have many drives in the second half, but one of their three shots was a goal by Colin Campbell — the final nail in Northern’s coffin. For the game, Webb scored on 40 percent of their shots attempted
(4-of-10). “We executed on the shots we had,” said Webb coach Allie Urbanski. Toby Bellisimo scored the first two Webb goals. The first came on a penalty kick five minutes in after a Northern Durham player was yellow-carded near the goal. His second goal came around Please see WARRIORS, page 3B
Busch finishes ahead of Martin at Bristol By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer
BRISTOL, Tenn. — Kyle Busch saved his season Saturday night by winning a gutsy side-by-side sprint to the finish against Mark Martin at Bristol Motor Speedway. Fighting hard for a berth in the Chase for the championship, Busch drove a steady and smooth race at one of the toughest tracks in NASCAR to climb off the ropes and keep his title hopes alive. His fourth win of the season — tied with Martin for most in the Sprint Cup Series — jumped him two spots in the
standings to 13th. With two races to go before the 12-driver field is set, Busch trails 13th-place driver Matt Kenseth by just 34 points. “No pressure on us yet!” his team radioed after he crossed the finish line. “This 18 is not going down without a fight!” Busch was silent for a few seconds before celebrating with a smokey burnout on the frontstretch and his traditional bow to the crowd. He then grabbed the checkered flag from a NASCAR official, but gave it to a fan through a hole in the fence. Please see BRISTOL, page 2B

A lot of you responded to last week’s column where the question was asked: What is the name of that lake up in northern Vance County anyway? One local attorney who was UNC Chapel Hill classmate of John H. Kerr III (the grandson of the late John Hosea Kerr, a former Congressman inWashington who lived in Warrenton) stated Walt emphatically that Bowen the name Dispatch “Kerr” is Fishing Columnist pronounced “CAR,” based on firsthand knowledge of how that family pronounced their own name. The elder Mr. Kerr helped spear-head the flood control project through the U.S. Congress in the late 1940’s that led to the building of the dam that still today bears his name. I also heard from several Virginians who apparently don’t appreciate “their” dam in Virginia (and thus the lake) being named after a North Carolinian. They seem to insist on calling it “Buggs Island” after the island located in the Roanoke River behind the dam site. So even if we didn’t unequivocally clarify to all readers what the name of the lake is, I think we did clear up any confusion over how you pronounce the name of the lake that most of us call Kerr. My cousin Jim reported that he, Randy Owen from Henderson, and Jim’s friend Carter left out last Friday morning in 2-3-foot seas and ran from lightning and thunderstorms all day. Despite the challenging weather, they still managed to catch several large sharks and some nice mackerel, both kings and Spanish. He said that the sky was black all day. I myself had an excellent weekend of fishing, about as good as I have ever had. My boat wasn’t quite ready Friday morning when I arrived to pick it up, so Sam Alashmli and I headed out on Kerr Lake in his boat to do some jigging for stripers. We caught and kept eight nice ones that I later filleted and packed into five freezer bags of nice white meat. Please see FISHING, page 5B

NFL PRESEASON
49ers win by one over Raiders; Cutler sharp for Bears 49ers 21, Raiders 20 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Alex Smith showed he can deliver a crushing block and bring down a ball carrier with a tackle. Unfortunately for Smith, those tasks are secondary when it comes to being an NFL quarterback. It was when he was called upon to pass that Smith struggled. Smith completed three of nine passes and threw an interception in what might have been his last chance to beat out Shaun Hill for Francisco’s starting quarterback job and the 49ers held off the Oakland Raiders 21-20 Saturday night. Rookie Nate Davis led the Niners to three scores in the fourth quarter, with Kory Sheets’ 5-yard run giving San Francisco a 21-14 lead. Charlie Frye scored on a 14-yard run for Oakland but threw an incompletion on the 2-point conversion attempt with 3:30 to go. Browns 27, Lions 10 CLEVELAND (AP) — Derek Anderson looked worthy of being a No. 1 quarterback. Rookie Matthew Stafford hardly looked like a No. 1 pick. Anderson led Cleveland to its first offensive touchdown in seven games and stayed tight with Brady Quinn in their too-close-tocall quarterback competition, helping the Browns beat Stafford and the Detroit Lions 27-10 in their home exhibition opener on Saturday night. Joshua Cribbs had an 84-yard TD punt return in the first half as the Browns (1-1) built a 20-0 lead. Rookie James Davis added an 81-yard TD run and 116 yards on 12 carries for Cleveland.

Redskins 17, Steelers 13 LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Rookie Chase Daniel, fighting the odds to earn a roster spot, threw two touchdown passes long after the starters had left the game, overcoming another difficult night for Washington’s first-team offense in Saturday’s 17-13 win over Pittsburgh. Willie Parker had a 3-yard touchdown run for the Steelers, whose starting defense looked in regular season form on a goal line stand on the opening drive. Pittsburgh limited Washington’s Jason Campbell to one completion in a little more than one quarter of play. With Ben Roethlisberger watching from the sideline — unable to play after a teammate stepped on his Achilles’ tendon during practice this week — Charlie Batch and the Pittsburgh starters played the first three drives. Buccaneers 24, Jaguars 23 JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Troy Williamson is giving the Jacksonville Jaguars something they’ve been missing for years: a
deep threat. Williamson, a firstround bust in Minnesota who is looking to secure a roster spot in Jacksonville, caught two deep passes from David Garrard and finished with 147 yards receiving in a 24-23 preseason loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday night. Although Jacksonville’s offense was mostly stagnant the rest of the night — the Jaguars were 3 for 14 on third down — Williamson’s two plays were a positive sign for a franchise that has struggled to create big plays in the passing game since receiver Jimmy Smith retired following the 2005 season.
Bears 17, Giants 3 CHICAGO (AP) — Playing a game with Chicago for the first time at Soldier field, Jay Cutler was sharp from the outset Saturday night in leading the Bears to a 17-3 victory over the New York Giants.

BRISTOL, from page 1B “I hope this just isn’t a fluke to get in the Chase,” he said in Victory Lane. “We need to run well at Atlanta and Richmond.” Martin, the polesitter, finished second in the 1,000th start of his career. Just like Busch, he improved his Chase chances and moved up two spots to 10th. But he could have moved Busch out of his way several times over the final 50 laps, includ-
ing the dramatic four-lap sprint to the finish. Instead, he raced him clean and defended his decision not to use his bumper on Busch. “Anyone who thinks I was soft out there on the race track wasn’t watching,” Martin said. “I raced my guts out.” Martin led 240 of the 500 laps, and Busch could commiserate with his bridesmaid showing. “Mark Martin, what
a class act,” Busch said. “He deserved to win this race. I’m sorry he got second.” Marcos Ambrose was third, while Greg Biffle and Denny Hamlin rounded out the top five. Hamlin came back from an early tire issue to grab his finish. Ryan Newman was sixth and was followed by Kurt Busch, Jimmie Johnson, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kenseth.
built a 17-0 lead. Cutler outplayed Eli Manning, who left after four series. Manning completed 7 of 10 passes for 62 yards. He was sacked twice, fumbled once — the Giants recovered — and was also called for intentional grounding. Cutler has already being hailed as the Bears’ best quarterback since Sid Luckman and his arrival after a testy departure from the Broncos has been making headlines for months.
Packers 31, Bills 21 GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay’s new-look defense forced turnovers on three of Buffalo’s first four possessions, powering the Packers to a 31-21 preseason victory over the Bills on Saturday.

The only potential bad news for the Packers came in the form of injuries to safety Nick Collins and backup quarterback Matt Flynn.

Pennington, Wildcat help Dolphin beat Panthers By STEVEN WINE AP Sports Writer
MIAMI — Chad Pennington threw well from the pocket and also from the flanker position. The wildcat was back Saturday night, contributing to a strong showing by the Miami Dolphins’ first-team offense in a 27-17 victory over Carolina. The Dolphins (2-0) scored 10 points in Pennington’s three series. He went 8 for 11 for 105 yards, throwing a 28-yard touchdown pass to Ronnie Brown and hitting Patrick Cobbs for a 35-yard gain out of the wildcat. The Dolphins’ variation of the single wing also produced 18 yards in four running plays, with running back Brown taking the snap each time. Carolina’s starters scored for the first time in the exhibition season when DeAngelo Williams broke four tackles, including two behind the line of scrimmage, on a 25-yard touchdown run. Carolina (0-2) committed only one turnover after having five in its opener, a loss to the New York Giants. But the Panthers’ run defense

The wildcat rejuvenated the Dolphins last season, but they had kept it mostly under wraps in training camp before springing it on Carolina. The most elaborate play from the formation was a double handoff and pass, with Pennington coming off the flank to throw deep to a wide-open Cobbs. That led to a field goal. The Dolphins drove 60 yards on their first possession and scored on Penning-
ton’s pass to Brown, who caught the ball at the 15 and juked past a defender. Brown also carried seven times for 31 yards, and Ricky Williams carried three times for 21 yards, all in the opening half. “We did a nice job up front up and we made some nice runs in the first half,� Miami coach Tony Sparano said. “We moved the ball really good on the ground.� The Panthers’ first team converted two third-andlong situations on a 70-yard

drive that ended with Williams’ touchdown. That was Carolina’s only score in three series with Jake Delhomme, who finished 5 for 7 for 47 yards. Decori Birmingham scored on a 2-yard run for the Panthers after they recovered a fumble on a punt return. Carolina rookie Captain Munnerlyn had a 58-yard punt return but fumbled on a later runback. Receiver Muhsin Muhammad sat out for Carolina because of a sore leg. Middle linebacker Jon Beason left the game in the first quarter with a knee injury. Miami’s Lex Hilliard scored on a 39-yard run, and backup quarterback Chad Henne threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Joe Kowalewski. Dolphins first-round draft pick Vontae Davis, who had a rough opening game, showed his run-stopping ability and made three tackles on the flank. Davis started in place of fellow rookie Sean Smith, scratched after coming down with flulike symptoms. Reserve defensive back Jason Allen sat out for the same reason.
WARRIORS, from page 1B minute 12. Bellisimo was 3-for-4 with penalty kicks in the tourney. Leland Yancey scored the third Webb goal two minutes later.

They came out the first half and just kind of ran all over us,� said Urbanski. “I kind of got on my guys and said if we let that happen again, Northern Durham is going to blow right by us. We’ve got to come out strong right off the bat and we have to play like we want to win this game.� The Knights were aggressive from the start of the second half. They fired three shots in the first 12 minutes, two of which were saved by keeper Geoffrey Cash. “Geoff Cash is so solid in the back, and our entire defensive line is very
strong,� said Urbanski. “We have really good chemistry in the back.� The only Knight goal came around minute 27, when the shot deflected off of Cash’s hands and into the goal. Both teams were physical all night, and it boiled over near the end of the game. In the final minutes, a player from each team was given a red card after the two exchanged blows. Players and coaches quickly separated the two, but another Northern Durham was also given a yellow/red card for leaving the bench and cursing. “It was a physical game throughout the entire game. I’m not going to say it was one-sided, we were very physical too,� Urbanski said. “Northern’s just the first team that threw it back at us. I don’t know if our guys were used to that.� Webb improves to 3-0 on the season with the championship win. Webb hosts Granville Central Monday at 6 p.m. Contact the writer at erobinson@hendersondispatch.com.
ROSE, from page 1B for him, and then he could appeal to Giamatti. From my perspective looking back, Giamatti was a compassionate man who would have eventually met with him, laid out a lifestyle plan that Pete would follow, and today he’d be a forgiven member of baseball’s family. Sounds simple, and it could have been with the right people driving it, led by Giamatti. From baseball’s perspective, putting this to bed was paramount. No telling what would ensue if it was to dig deeper. Arguably its biggest star compromised the integrity of the game. The guy that made the sprint to first on a walk, the headfirst slide, the leader of the Big Red Machine, the ’80 Phillies, he played in more winning games than any player in history, he was the all-time hits leader, one of the biggest faces in baseball, and he was now considered a baseball outcast. How dare anyone test the poster hanging on the clubhouse wall, the one warning against gambling? This needed to go away, and it seemed like Mr. Giamatti had a good plan. No one, however, anticipated the untimely passing of commissioner Giamatti, especially Pete. Before Pete could ever meet with him, appeal to him, come clean and apply for reinstatement, Mr. Giamatti passed away from a heart attack. Baseball lost a great ambassador for sure, and as unimportant as it was at the time, Pete’s fate now was in the hands of his successor, Fay Vincent.

Vincent was close to Giamatti and felt Pete’s case helped apply immense stress and was a factor in his friend’s death. Vincent subsequently upheld the ban with even more fervor. Enter Bud Selig, another passionate baseball man, who inherited the Rose case, and for years refused to take calls on the subject. It was always “under advisement.� OK, we all know the story from here on. Pete admitted to Selig he lied and asked for forgiveness, baseball was slow to act, Pete’s book came out early and stepped on the Hall of Fame unveiling of Paul Molitor and Dennis Eckersley in early 2004, and the private admission to Selig went public via the book, not from the commissioner’s office. To Bud Selig, it reeked of sleaze and money, and that image has never left his brain. Pete’s attempt to appeal and apply after 14 years initially seemed to be a success. However, as time went
on, it was bungled from all sides. Pete remains in baseball purgatory. Now you’re current, so here’s my first question: Did Pete Rose, in fact, knowingly compromise the integrity of baseball? And second, did/do the players who used steroids knowingly compromise the integrity of baseball? Pete bet on the Reds to win, never to lose. He never managed with the intention of not winning. Do you believe for one second the gambling underworld was tuned into Pete’s betting habits? Pete never bet big or long enough to sway the gambling line. This has all been dressing to make it clear where gambling can lead. I’m not trying to say it’s not serious — it is — but I’m asking you to compare its impact on the game to steroid use. Steroid players knowingly ingested chemicals that gave them an unfair advantage over clean players. Not only were they compromising the game’s

integrity, they were jeopardizing the long term for short-term financial gain, confusing baseball history. And, oh yes, some might’ve broken the law. Pete bet on his team to win and has been banished from baseball for life. Manny Ramirez, Alex Rodriguez et al, bet that they would get bigger, stronger and have a distinct advantage over everyone and that they wouldn’t get caught. Which is worse? Does the penalty fit the crime? Pete’s banned for life, he sells his autograph to pay bills. Ramirez and his cronies apologize, are forgiven and get $20 million a year. They giggle all the way to
the bank and could end up in the Hall of Fame. Is this the way Bart Giamatti would have wanted it 20 years later? Recently, Pete’s case was given a new life by the great Hank Aaron, who said Pete had served a sufficient penalty time, deserved to be reinstated and considered for the Hall. All of us thought this was a new life for Pete, as Aaron is close to commissioner Selig and could sway fellow members. Not so, as Mr. Selig went back to his favorite “under advisement� stance. He has his reasons, which I may disagree with but respect. Even if Pete were to get by the commissioner, I
feel it would take serious massaging of the members by Aaron, Joe Morgan and myself to get him the needed 75 percent quorum on a vote of Hall of Famers for election, and that may not be enough. Pete is Pete and always will be. To know him is to love him. He has a wonderful heart, but has never adjusted his lifestyle to the degree needed to impress the current administration. No one would disagree with that, but everyone must consider baseball’s inconsistency in dealing with those players who have compromised the game. Twenty years have passed, isn’t that enough?

Hanson wins again as Braves edge Marlins By CHARLES ODUM AP Sports Writer

Los Angeles’ Casey Blake hits a solo home run as Chicago catcher Geovany Soto looks on during Saturday’s game.
Haeger solid for Dodgers in win; Pirates blast Reds Dodgers 2, Cubs 0 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Charlie Haeger baffled the Cubs with his knuckleball, Matt Kemp and Casey Blake homered, and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated Chicago 2-0 Saturday to win their third game in a row. The NL West leaders haven’t been on this kind of roll since taking five straight from July 18-22. All three wins have come against the struggling Cubs, who lost for the 10th time in 13 games. Chicago managed four hits a day after getting one-hit on the road for the first time in more than 23 years. Jonathan Broxton struck out Kosuke Fukudome with the potential tying runs in scoring position in the eighth. George Sherrill pitched the ninth and put two on before pinch-hitter Ryan Theriot grounded out to end it. Astros 4, D-Backs 2 HOUSTON (AP) — Brian Moehler won for the first time in more than a month and Houston won its season-best fourth straight. The Diamondbacks have lost seven straight, their longest skid since dropping seven in a row in June 2006. Carlos Lee had two hits and a go-ahead sacrifice fly to help Moehler (8-9) end his four-game losing streak. LaTroy Hawkins earned his 11th save by pitching a scoreless ninth. Max Scherzer (7-8) gave up four runs and seven hits in five innings for Arizona. He struck out seven. Phillies 4, Mets 1 NEW YORK (AP) —
Chase Utley hit a tworun homer as part of a three-run sixth inning for Philadelphia. After Mets starter Tim Redding held the Phillies to one hit through five shutout innings in a spot start, Philadelphia broke out against relievers Pat Misch and Sean Green. Misch (0-1), recalled earlier in the day from Triple-A Buffalo, walked Shane Victorino leading off the sixth and then gave up a long homer to right to Utley — the AllStar second baseman’s 26th of the season. Rookie left-hander J.A. Happ (10-2) settled down after allowing Omir Santos’ RBI single in the second inning that gave the Mets a 1-0 lead. Happ has won three straight decisions.
Pirates 12, Reds 2 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Ryan Doumit homered, doubled and drove in three runs to give Zach Duke some unaccustomed run support and Pittsburgh Cincinnati into last place in the NL Central. After honoring 22 members of the World Series-winning 1979 Pirates before the game, a team headed for the franchise’s 17th consecutive losing season turned back the clock — if only for one night — with ’79like power, pitching and defense to win its fifth in a row, matching a season high. Duke (10-11) matched his career high for wins set in 2006, giving up two runs and eight hits in seven innings for his second victory since June 24. The Pirates scored only 10 runs while he was on the mound during his 11 losses.
Bulls start trip with big win at Syracuse Special to the Dispatch
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Desmond Jennings was a triple shy of the cycle on Saturday, as Durham started an important road trip with a 9-2 win over Syracuse. Jennings, playing his first game in left field for Durham with Fernando Perez starting in center on MLB rehab, homered with one out in the first for a 1-0 lead off Shairon Martis (3-3). Later in the frame Matt Joyce was walked intentionally to load the bases, and Justin Ruggiano foiled the strategy with a two-run double to left for a 3-0 lead. Jennings hit a sac fly in the second for a 4-0 advantage, and Ray Olmedo added an RBI hit for a 5-0 lead in the third. Henry Mateo delivered a two-out RBI triple in the fifth off Martis and then scored on an errant relay throw for a 7-0 lead.
Syracuse did make a small charge in the sixth against Jason Cromer (6-3). After a seeing-eye single by Ian Desmond plated a run, Cromer was replaced by Calvin Medlock. Pinch-hitter Kory Casto walked to force home a run, and make it 7-2, but Medlock got Norris Hopper to hit into an inning-ending double play. Durham answered with two in the seventh, the first on an RBI double by Jennings for the final margin. The Bulls remain three games behind Gwinnett in the division race with 16 left. However, Durham moved 2.5 games ahead of Syracuse and 4.0 in front of Norfolk in the wildcard race. The Bulls collected 14 hits, as each player in the lineup had at least one. Jennings drove in three runs and Mateo scored three for Durham (71-57).
ATLANTA — Tommy Hanson’s perfect August is helping the Atlanta Braves’ playoff push. The rookie won his fourth straight start this month, combining with two relievers on a fourhitter, and the Atlanta Braves beat the Florida Marlins 4-3 on Saturday night. The Braves moved into a third-place tie with Florida in the NL wild-card race. They began the night four games behind wild-card leader Colorado. “Every game with them is going to be a big game, so I knew tonight was going to be a big game,” Hanson said about the Marlins. “I just wanted to go out there and do my best and make pitches. Everything felt good.” The Braves, powered by home runs from Yunel Escobar and Omar Infante, took a 4-0 lead in the first inning. Hanson (9-2) gave up four hits and three runs in seven innings. He walked three and struck out seven to improve to 4-0 in August. The right-hander has not allowed more than seven hits or three runs in any of his four starts this month. “Hopefully, he’ll be Rookie of the Year,” Braves manager Bobby Cox said. “He pitched a great ballgame, especially the first four innings. Man! He hardly ever missed.” The 22-year-old Hanson

Atlanta starter Tommy Hanson works against the Florida Marlins in the first inning Saturday. faced the minimum 12 batters though four innings before giving up three runs in the fifth. Mike Gonzalez and Rafael Soriano, who pitched the ninth for his 19th save, combined for two perfect innings in relief of Hanson. The Braves won for the first time in five home games against the Marlins this season. Gonzalez said the Braves felt a sense of urgency after losing Friday night’s series opener. “That’s what it’s about now,” Gonzalez said. “We had to make sure we got this one today. We talked
about it before the game. ... There’s no chance for losing. That’s the way we’re going to have to keep playing.” Chris Volstad (9-10) gave up six hits and four runs in four innings. “I thought he did well after the first inning,” Florida manager Fredi Gonzalez said. Gonzalez said righthander Brendan Donnelly, who left in the eighth with a right calf strain, is headed to the disabled list. “It’s hard to pitch with a calf (injury),” Gonzalez said. Donnelly gave up a
single to Escobar in the eighth inning before Matt Diaz followed with a sacrifice bunt. Donnelly pulled up after fielding the bunt and throwing out Diaz at first. Gonzalez then removed Donnelly from the game. Infante, who has made a combined 24 starts at three infield positions, made his first start of the season in left field. He made a running catch of Chris Coghlan’s line drive to open the game. Infante’s leadoff homer started the Braves’ fourrun first inning. Volstad walked Kelly Johnson before giving up a runscoring single by Adam LaRoche and Escobar’s two-run homer for a 4-0 lead. LaRoche had two hits and is batting .415 with 16 RBIs in 19 games since his July 31 trade to Atlanta from the Boston Red Sox. Florida’s first hit was Jeremy Hermida’s single with two outs in the fifth, following Hanson’s walk to John Baker. Wes Helms doubled to drive in Baker. Hermida and Helms scored on a pinch-hit single by Jorge Cantu, cutting the Braves’ lead to 4-3. The Braves loaded the bases against Brian Sanches and Renyel Pinto in the seventh but couldn’t score. Pinto walked Chipper Jones to load the bases. With the Turner Field crowd of 35,200 standing and cheering, Pinto struck out LaRoche on a 3-2 pitch to end the threat.
AL Roundup
Youkilis homers twice in Sox win over Yanks Red Spx 14, Yankees 1 BOSTON (AP) — Kevin Youkilis homered twice and tied a career high with six RBIs, rookie Junichi Tazawa stopped New York’s big bats and the Boston Red Sox snapped a five-game skid against the Yankees with a 14-1 win Saturday. The Red Sox roughed up A.J. Burnett and set a team record with their eighth consecutive multihomer game. David Ortiz and Alex Gonzalez also connected for Boston, which has 39 homers in August with eight games left. The Yankees beat the Red Sox 20-11 in the series opener with their most runs and hits (23) since July 20, 2007. But on Saturday, they left six runners in scoring position while Boston continued the slugging that has produced 49 runs in five games, four of them wins. Tazawa (2-2) worked out of trouble all day, allowing eight hits and two walks in six scoreless innings. The Yankees dropped to 15-4 in their last 19 games, a stretch that includes a four-game sweep of Boston. Their AL East lead over the Red Sox fell to 6 1/2 games. Burnett (10-7) yielded nine runs and nine hits in five innings, dropping to 0-3 in his last five starts. Rays 5, Rangers 4 (10) ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Tampa Bay slugger Carlos Pena homered twice and drove in the winning run with an RBI single in the 10th inning. Evan Longoria was hit by a pitch from Jason Grilli (1-2) to start the bottom of the 10th and went to second when Ben Zobrist walked. Pena then hit a liner to center to score Longoria. Pena finished with four RBIs for the Rays, who remain three games behind AL wild card-leading
three hits over four innings for Baltimore.

New York’s Mark Teixeira reacts in the seventh inning against the Red Sox in their game at Fenway Park Saturday. Boston. The Rangers fell two games back of the Red Sox, who beat the Yankees 14-1. Pena has three of his 16 career multihomer games this season, and has eight homers over his last 14 games. Grant Balfour (5-2) struck out two during a scoreless 10th for the win. Marlon Byrd tied it at 4 with a two-out, ninthinning solo homer off Tampa Bay closer J.P. Howell.
Angels 7, Blue Jays 3 TORONTO (AP) — Vladimir Guerrero and Juan Rivera homered, Ervin Santana won his fourth straight start and the Angels beat slumping Toronto. Guerrero broke a 3-all tie with a solo shot in the sixth inning and Rivera provided some insurance with a two-run drive in the eighth. The AL West leaders avoided their first threegame losing streak since June 20-22. Los Angeles is the only team in the majors that hasn’t lost four straight all season. Toronto has dropped eight of 10 and is nine games below .500, matching a season low. Santana (7-6) allowed three runs and seven hits in six innings. The righthander has won six of his
past seven decisions and is 5-0 in his last six road starts. Blue Jays rookie Scott Richmond (6-7) gave up four runs and six hits in seven innings. He struck out 10 and walked three.
White Sox 4, Orioles 1 CHICAGO (AP) — Carlos Quentin homered and John Danks pitched into the seventh inning, leading the White Sox to the victory. Danks (11-8) walked six but allowed just one run and three hits, helping Chicago bounce back after consecutive losses to lowly Kansas City and Baltimore. The left-hander got a standing ovation when he departed with one out in the seventh and runners on the corners. Matt Thornton came in and struck out Brian Roberts before throwing a wild pitch that cut Chicago’s lead to 4-1. The reliever got some help when third baseman Gordon Beckham made a nice throw from the line to get Adam Jones at first for the final out. Thornton and Octavio Dotel combined to work the eighth and Bobby Jenks finished for his 27th save in 31 opportunities. David Hernandez (4-6) allowed three runs and
Indians 4, Mariners 3 (11) CLEVELAND (AP) — Luis Valbuena homered with two outs in the 11th inning to give Cleveland a win over Seattle. Valbuena lined a pitch from Randy Messenger (0-1) to right for his seventh homer, capping Cleveland’s comeback. The Indians trailed 3-0 after one inning. Messenger, who has pitched parts of five seasons in the majors, had his contract purchased from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day when the Mariners optioned Chris Jakubauskas. Rafael Perez (2-2) got one out for the win, Cleveland’s fourth in 10 games. Four Seattle pitchers held the Indians hitless over 6 2-3 innings until Valbuena connected. Twins 8, Royals 7 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jason Kubel drove in three runs and Brian Duensing, with the help of four relievers, earned his first major league win as Minnesota held off Kansas City. The Royals went 3 for 19 with runners in scoring position while their home record in the season they unveiled $275 million in stadium renovations dropped to a major league-worst 25-38. Duensing (1-1), making his second career start, went five innings and allowed two runs, on a double by Miguel Olivo. Royals starter Kyle Davies (4-9) was charged with six runs in 5 2-3 innings. Michael Cuddyer’s solo homer in the second was his 20th, giving the Twins four players with 20 or more for the first time since 1987. Kubel’s tworun double made it 3-0. Matt Guerrier got five outs for his fourth career save and first this year.

My boat was ready Friday afternoon, so I couldn’t wait to get to Lake Gaston Saturday morning to try out my rebuilt lower unit. It is running great now, thanks to the team at Overby’s Marine and Progressive Insurance. After landing a nice 4-pounder in the river on a buzz bait top water lure, I caught around a dozen more during the day on a variety of techniques, some on deep crank baits and others on plastics worms fished deep. I left the lake kind of early so I, my dad Johnny and my Uncle Wayland could head to Raleigh for dinner with my youngest daughter Laura and her husband Eddie at the 42nd Street Oyster Bar. We dined on steamed oysters, steamed shrimp, oysters Rockefeller, crab cakes, potatoes, slaw and hushpuppies. Sunday morning, I again headed over to Lake Gaston hoping to find some more fish along the edges of the old river channel. By 7:30 a.m., I had caught a couple of nice keepers on a crank bait when I saw a man, woman and young girl ride by and stop a ways down from me close to the bank. A few minutes later, I noticed that someone was in the water but didn’t think much of it. I thought maybe they were checking traps or something and kept on fishing. I then realized that the woman had fallen in the lake and was climbing up onto the shore. It turned out that her small dog, a Jack Russell terrier, had decided to jump in the lake and she had fallen in while trying to get him back. I hadn’t helped much but the fellow was grateful and told me that he
was going to show me where a big school of bass was hanging out, which sounded like a great idea to me.He led me out a quarter of a mile or so into the middle of the lake and said to try it right there. You could see a bunch of fish on the depth finder hanging along the edge of a steep drop off. I caught about a dozen nice largemouths over the next couple of hours, and then all of a sudden I launched into the best hour of bass fishing I have ever had. Throwing crank baits that dove to around 18 to 20 feet deep, I landed one fish behind the other. In that hour, I estimate making around 30 casts, with only two of those cast getting all the way back to the boat without hooking a fish. These were mostly bass between 2 and 3 pounds, with one a good 4 pounds and a few over 3. Landing a total of around 40 keeper bass that morning, I would have had around 17 pounds in a five-fish limit, which would win most tournaments held on Gaston this time of year. With the BFL event coming up on Gaston in a few weeks, I plan to try to find other schools in similar spots and then hope they stay there until I need them. We’ll see. Next week’s article – Report from Lake Gaston as I continue preparations for the upcoming BFL. Tip of the week – When you catch a fish on a worm try throwing back into the same area with crank baits. Many times when one fish is caught from a school, the rest of the fish get caught up in the excitement and will bite readily. Contact the writer at waltbowen@yahoo.com.
WYNDHAM, from page 1B highlights. Marino, who started the round six strokes off the pace, had seven birdies to vault up the leaderboard — including one on the par-3 No. 16 in which his tee shot landed 7 inches from the flagstick. He shot 63 to move to 198, and was one of 24 players to finish the round. “We were talking about it when we went back out on (No. 14), if we were going to make it or not,” Marino said. “We knew it was going to be close. The guys in front of us motored and we made it. I’m really thrilled about that.” Couples, the U.S. President’s Cup captain who’s still considering his final picks, birdied four of his first eight holes to move into contention for his first victory since 2003. And Rose had five birdies to rally after starting the round four strokes back. But once again, the dominant storyline at this stop-and-start tournament was the weather. Play was halted twice during Day 3 because of heavy rains and lightning. After the second round was completed midmorning, the start of Round 3 was pushed back 2 1/2 hours while a band of thunderstorms passed through. Then, nearly four hours into the third round, everyone went for cover again while another wave of storms pelted the central North Carolina piedmont. Cups overflowed with water, fairways more closely resembled streams and power was briefly knocked out to the clubhouse during a television interview with Couples.
After a 2-hour, 49-minute delay — the third weather-related suspension of the tournament — play finally resumed for about an hour before dusk fell. Organizers already had been racing to play catch-up after a 4-hour delay during the first round. “There was a lot of stopping and starting for everybody,” Couples said. Riley opened his round with an eagle on No. 1, using a 9-iron to knock his approach shot about 165 yards into the hole. After the delay, he ran a 55-foot eagle putt to within 3 feet on No. 5 and tapped it in for birdie. The former UNLV player who’s contending for his second top-10 finish of the year — and second career PGA Tour victory — shared the 36-hole lead with Maggert and Ryan Moore at 11-under 129. Garcia caught Riley on the 10th — he made a 33-foot birdie putt on that hole, while Riley missed a 10-foot par putt and tapped in for bogey. Garcia was standing over a 10-foot birdie putt on No. 11 when play was stopped for the day. Standing in the way: A weather-created, 26-hole marathon Sunday for both Riley and Garcia. Then again, that’s nothing new during this tournament for Riley — who took his first lead Friday while playing 21 holes. “It’s what we play for — definitely tests your ability of what you’ve been working on,” Riley said. “Guys like Sergio (have) been there so many times it’s probably just like playing golf to them. To guys like me, it’s different.”

omen across the country are meeting the demands of busy schedules and tightened wallets by setting aside life’s simple pleasures and putting themselves at the bottom of the to-do list. In fact, a new survey commissioned by the makers of Edwards frozen desserts finds more than nine in 10 American women have cut back on indulgences during the past year. Fifty-nine percent of survey respondents are cutting back on events out with friends and more than one-third (35 percent) are cutting back on even the smallest treats, such as manicures and desserts. The survey also found that: �
�
�
Nearly all (94 percent) American women in the study admit that they don’t indulge or treat themselves as often as they’d like because other people or commitments come first.
Fifty-six percent of women say they don’t treat themselves as often as they’d like because they can’t afford to. Nearly a third (32 percent) of women say they now have less free time for themselves than they did a year ago.
The silent treatment
In today’s age of technology, the silent treatment is imperative to maintain sanity. Home phones, cell phones, email, instant messaging, pagers, not to mention the multiple ways you get pinged when you turn on the computer, can all be overwhelming. Get serious about your silent treatment and power off the technology. Turn off the ringer on all phones, shut down the computer, and turn off the television and the radio. Now it’s time for a 15 to 30 minute scheduled time out because you deserve a little peace and quiet.
Bring nature indoors
A great way to nurture yourself is to bring nature indoors. You can do this simply by cultivating a container garden. This could be a window box, urn, basket or round fish bowl. For a fabulous display of nature indoors use a Bonsai plant, an orchid, a robust green plant, herbs or layer two different kinds of tulips. This is especially good for chilly winter months as floral aromas and popping colors can brighten a dark day.
The flip side
Pamper yourself by flipping to the right side of your brain. Engaging in art and creative pursuits fires-up the right side of your brain, which is the side of the brain that savors freedom. The left side of your brain is good when you need to pay the bills or figure out your kids’ 5th grade math problem. Spend a little time painting, drawing, making jewelry or knitting. You deserve to play on the flip side.
Small rewards offer sweet peace of mind
Heather Reider and Mary Goulet, founders of MomsTown.com and hosts of MomsTown Radio, know a thing or two about the challenges of juggling a family and career while making the time to treat themselves. “Self-pampering may seem like the last thing on your mind these days, but treating yourself to something special is so critical to relieving the stress of every day life,” says Reider. “A personal treat does not have to break the bank and can be as simple as an at-home facial or sneaking a dessert in at the end of the day,” adds Goulet. Reider and Goulet share these tips and strategies for effortless and affordable ways to celebrate everyday indulgences.
Back to basics
It’s hard to do but it is important to put yourself at the top of the to-do list every once in a while. Simple indulgences, like an Edwards Singles Á La Modes dessert, are a quick and easy way to treat yourself to something sweet, as well as fill your kitchen with a delicious home-baked aroma.
Essential essence

Treat yourself to the power of fragrance. Aromatherapy sachets placed in drawers are a sensational way to feel good without having to do or spend much at all. If you’re looking for an energizing scent try citrus, peppermint or bergamot. To take the stress down a few notches choose lavender, chamomile, sandalwood or ylang-ylang. You deserve to tickle your nose.
Budding beauty
Invest in four to six bud vases or use any vase that’s lying around your house. Go to your local farmer’s market or grocery store and buy a bouquet of flowers. When you get home, break the flower bunch apart into single stems and place the flowers in the bud vases. Distribute these vases around the house in the rooms you visit most frequently. Place one by the kitchen sink, the vanity in your bathroom, on your nightstand, in the powder room and in your kids’ bedrooms. You’ll be amazed at how your kids will appreciate the gesture. Then when you walk around your home you’ll be greeted with flowers wherever you go. And you did it with just one bouquet.
Hit your funny bone
When it comes to our emotions it’s really hard to multi-task. It’s nearly impossible to be sad and exuberant in the same exact moment. You deserve to laugh so choose more moments to get a giggle in your day. Read something funny or rent a funny movie.

While life is full of stressful moments, the benefits of taking time to rejuvenate and unwind really can make a difference. For more information on Edwards Singles Á La Modes desserts, visit EdwardsBaking.com.

Abdul Rasheed named recipient of lifetime achievement award Community development professionals from North and South Carolina have bestowed a lifetime achievement honor on the chief executive officer of the North Carolina Community Development Initiative, Abdul Rasheed. Joyce Dickens, the chairperson of the N.C. Association of Community Development Corporations, presented the award Aug. 4 in honor of Rasheed’s long-standing commitment to social justice for the residents of North Carolina’s lowresource communities and to the community development organizations that serve them by supporting home-ownership, entrepreneurship and youth services. “Abdul Rasheed has had more to do with helping North Carolina’s low-income residents as anyone
else in this state during the past decade,” Dickens said. “He has, through the force of his leadership, enhanced the professionalism of North Carolina’s community development corporations, building their capacity to operate more effectively and to attract the millions of dollars in additional investment their communities need.” Under Rasheed’s leadership, The North Carolina Community Development Initiative has pioneered innovations such as energy efficient steel-frame home designs (trademarked as EnviroSteel) that local community development corporations can use to build affordable homes. It has also launched a youth leadership program to groom a new generation of professionals to embark on careers in community development. And it has
Abdul Rasheed attracted unprecedented public and private investment in community development work. Dickens made the presentation at the annual joint conference for North Carolina and South Carolina’s associations of community development corporations in Greensboro. The conference marked the 20th anniver-
sary of the North Carolina association and the 15th anniversary of its South Carolina counterpart. “This honor means so much because it comes from colleagues I deeply respect for their commitment and tireless work on behalf of low-resource communities,” Rasheed said. “It is a privilege to work with them, and I thank them for encouraging me in this way.” The North Carolina Community Development Initiative is a statewide public-private partnership that provides leadership and capital investment to high-performance community development corporations as well as other community based economic development endeavors to improve the well-being and quality of life for people in low-resource communities.

Kingston Trio, Bill Leslie, and The Rat Pack coming to Louisburg College as part of 52nd annual Allen de Hart Concert Series Tickets are now on sale for Louisburg College’s 52nd Allen de Hart Concert Series, which will feature a wide variety of artists ranging from folk music and a big band, to comedy juggling and a Las Vegas style variety show. Folk music legends The Kingston Trio will kick off the series on Sept. 12. During the late 50s and early 60s, the trio enjoyed unprecedented record sales and worldwide fame, while influencing the musical tastes of a generation. Immediately preceding the concert, a special dedication for Louisburg College’s newly named Seby Jones Performing Arts Center (JPAC) and Francis Boyette Dickson Auditorium will be held. In what is sure to be one of the most talked about events of the year, classical musicians Igudesman and Joo will bring “A Little Nightmare Music” to the stage on Sept. 22. This is a truly unique show, full of outrageous humor, technical virtuosity, and enchanting music. Show tickets include admission to a pre-concert reception starting at 6:30 p.m. in the auditorium lobby that includes hors d’oeuvres and beverages. Back by popular demand, Bill Leslie and Lorica will perform songs from the new CD “Blue Ridge Reunion” on Oct. 16. Praised by famed cellist Yo-Yo Ma as one of the greats in modern Celtic music, Bill Leslie delivers a peaceful yet powerful collection of songs inspired by his father’s majestic mountain watercolors. The paintings will also be on display the night of the performance in the traveling exhibitions gallery, and will remain until Nov. 25. On Nov. 13, a special performance of “War Bonds: The Songs and Letters of WWII,” will be presented. This multi-media living history cabaret is interspersed with personal letters from the front and headline news of the period. Actual veterans’ stories create a sentimental journey back to the days when blackouts and rationing were a small sacrifice in order to obtain freedom. Included in the evening’s performance will be a special tribute to all veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces.
Be prepared to get in the holiday spirit on Dec. 3 with The New Sigmund Romberg Orchestra in their delightful holiday program, “A Viennese Christmas.” This concert features an orchestra of 30 top professional musicians, four world-class vocalists, and a top-notch conductor. The program consists of a superb mix of arrangements from the overture to Strauss’ “Die Fledermaus” to selections from many wonderful Romberg operettas, such as “The Student Prince.” You’ll also hear selections from “Babes in Toyland,” Broadway musicals, and popular Christmas carols. This show is the perfect holiday treat for the entire family, and has received rave reviews from every single presenter for each of its four seasons of touring. Join us at 7 p.m. in the lobby for a special evening featuring a pre-concert Christmas tree lighting in the Viennese tradition with handbells, carolers, and luminaries. Holiday refreshments will be served during intermission. Louisburg College appreciates the support of the local community, and wants to celebrate that support with a free concert on Dec. 18. Concert Singers of Cary is a community of vocal artists who gather to share the joy of music and pursue performance excellence. Since their 1991 debut, Artistic Director Lawrence Speakman has planned concerts providing a wide-open perspective for music lovers. The evening’s performance will feature the Advent/ Christmas portion of Handel’s Messiah. Attendees are encouraged to bring a canned food item to benefit the local food bank. Christmas cookies, punch, and cider will be served during intermission. Prepare to be amazed on Jan. 22, 2010, with the comedy of Mark Nizer. Since winning the International Juggling Championship, Nizer has taken his one man show to thousands of venues around the world, including The Kennedy Center and The Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. His invention of new juggling tricks and juggling technologies, combined with his unique wit, have set him apart from his peers. Nizer’s performance is one of the most popular corporate and theatrical events
in the entertainment market today. Portions of the evening’s program will require the use of 3-D glasses which will be provided at the door. Feb. 12, 2010, will be an evening to remember as Louisburg College goes high class with “American Big Band.” In this new theatrically-staged, costumed, and choreographed production by award-winning producer Matt Davenport, 20 singers, dancers and musicians bring the Big Band story to life, featuring the greatest highlights of the last 80 years of Big Band music in America. The sounds of Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, and many more are sure to get you “In the Mood” with the very best of the American Big Band. The show is set as a radio program happening from different locations throughout the USA, such as The Savoy, The Palomar Ballroom in Hollywood, and Harlem’s Cotton Club. On March 28, 2010, at 2 p.m., “Church Basement Ladies” will perform a new musical comedy featuring four distinct characters and their relationships as they organize the food and solve the problems of a rural Minnesota church about to undergo changes in 1964. We’ll see them handle a record-breaking Christmas dinner, the funeral of a dear friend, a Hawaiian Easter fundraiser, and, of course, a steaming-hot July wedding. Funny and down to earth, audiences will recognize these ladies as they witness the church year unfold from below the house of God. Preceding the show will be an old-fashioned “Picnic on the Grounds” to be held on the auditorium lawn from 12:30-1:30 p.m. Lunch is by reservation only, and can be made through the Box Office. Closing out the season on April 16 will be a “The Rat Pack Encore,” a fun, high-energy show that instantly brings audiences back to a time when song, dance, and comedy were king. Michael B. Levin, Bryan Clark and Rick Michel were first brought together in the original cast of the hit Las Vegas show “The Rat Pack Is Back!” The show was one of the most successful productions in Las Vegas during
its long run. Since then, Rick, Bryan, and Michael have continued to take time out from their solo careers to sing, dance, and cavort on stage as Frank, Sammy, and Dean in what is considered by critics to be the absolute best recreation of the Rat Pack on stage. Be prepared for lots of audience interaction as some of the best moments are spontaneous and unscripted. Reminiscent of the Desert Sands, enjoy the fun of a “Chips for Charity” casino night in the Norris Theatre 90 minutes before the concert, during intermission, and for one hour following
the concert. Tickets are available by calling the Louisburg College Box Office at (919) 497-3300 (local) or toll-free at 1–866-773-6354. Tickets may also be purchased at the door on the day of show if still available. The Box Office is open Monday through Friday from 1-5 p.m. in the main lobby of the Louisburg College Auditorium, as well as one-and-a-half hours before show time. Tickets are sold on a first-come, firstserved basis, and seats are not reserved. Additional information and tickets are also available on-line at www.louisburg.edu. All
performances will take place at 8 p.m., with doors opening at 7 p.m. The only exception is the “Church Basement Ladies” performance, which will take place at 2 p.m. Preceding the performances on Dec. 3 and Feb. 12 will be the concert season’s buffet-style dinners. These all-you-can-eat meals will be served at 6 p.m. in the Multi-Purpose Room of the Jordan Student Center. Reservations are required at least a week in advance of each event. To reserve a seat, please call the Louisburg College Box Office.

Jean Jackson named to the Coming Soon North Carolina 4-H Hall of Fame Sunday, September 27th Vance County 4-H is proud to announce that Nancy Jean Jackson, Ph.D., was inducted into the inaugural class of the N.C. 4-H Hall of Fame during a celebration at the N.C. 4-H Congress on July 21. Jackson began her work in 4-H as a nine-yearold active member of the Middleburg Cloverleaf 4-H Club. Her grandmother, Sallie Rose Mabry, and grandfather, Joseph Duke Mabry, had been members of 4-H’s forerunners — the Tomato Club and the Corn Club. Her mother, Rose Mabry Jackson, was active for many years in Extension Homemakers (and it’s earlier version, the Home Demonstration Club) at the local, state, and national levels. Jean Jackson was proud to follow in their footsteps by being active at all levels of 4-H. Jackson participated in 4-H Dress Revue, attended 4-H camp four years, held all offices in the local club and was elected president of the North Central district. She received the Danforth Award and the N.C. Key Award. She regularly attended N.C. 4-H Congress at N.C. State University and was
Jean Jackson inducted into the N.C. 4-H Honor Club. She was selected as a representative to N.C. 4-H Electric Congress, as North Carolina’s representative to the Virginia State 4-H Congress and to the 4-H Cititzenship Short Course in Washington, DC. Selected as the state winner in photography, she attended National 4-H Congress in Chicago, where Kodak purchased one of her photographs for use in 4-H handbooks. Jackson assisted the county agent in starting a new 4-H club in Kittrell in the late 1960s. As an older 4-H’er, Jackson focused her work on leadership and public speaking, work that continues in her academic career.
As an adult, Jackson’s commitment to excellence has garnered academic honors too numerous to mention. She graduated magna cum laude from Meredith College in 1975 and earned master of arts and Ph.D. degrees in English from the University of Illinois. Jackson currently serves as vice president for college programs at Meredith College. The N.C. 4-H Alumni and Friends Association created the N.C. 4-H Hall of Fame to honor people who have made a significant impact on the N.C. 4-H Program and including forerunners of the program, such as corn, swine and tomato clubs. Honorees will be selected each year from nominations made by county extension centers, 4-H groups, N.C. Cooperative Extension staff and individuals. The inaugural class included 100 members who were inducted during the N.C. 4-H 1909-2009 centennial celebration.

‘Shadow Complex’ a triumph of classic game design By LOU KESTEN Associated Press Writer
What’s a gamer to do in the summer, when so few high-profile retail titles are released? I look for new challenges to download — and most of those are going onto my Xbox 360. It remains the essential machine for gamers who don’t want to leave home. Microsoft’s Xbox Live has just launched a Games on Demand service, which lets you download older hits like “BioShock” and “Burnout Paradise” directly to your hard drive. It now has an Indie Games section filled with low-priced experiments in innovative play. And the prime-time game show “1 vs. 100” has become a smash, drawing as many as 445,000 players in one night. But Xbox Live Arcade is still the core of Micro-

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are made aware of a responsibility you didn’t even know you had. You’ve been handling it well all along. You always have a choice in life. It just so happens that you’ve been making the right one without realizing it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re not sure why you must connect with a certain person, but you’re driven to do so. Follow the instinct. It may be years before you understand, but there’s a good reason your destinies are crossing. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You can be verbose when you’re on a topic you care about. There are kindred spirits around you who will inspire those kinds of conversations and they’ll also be riveted by all you say. CANCER (June 22-July 22). People won’t ask you to clarify yourself. They’ll just go on pretending they understand you when really they are quite confused as to your meaning. Be an extremely thorough communicator and you’ll avoid problems. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you understand what is expected of you, you will hit every mark. Luckily, an authority figure has plotted out a project well. The goals are concrete; the timeline is defined — so go for it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Conformity isn’t such a bad thing these days. Fitting in will have benefits fiscally, socially and emotionally. You will win the heart of the ones who think they are just like you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have no idea how you will accomplish a project, but it’s certain that you will. The way reveals itself as you go. What’s important is that you have every intention of finishing strong. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Life can change on a dime. You’ll be made aware of this by the dramas that others are going through and this helps you be even more appreciative of the goodness in your current scene. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Be careful how you word things. You’re likely to be taken very seriously, whether that is your intention or not. Tonight, a family member or old friend will make you laugh hard. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You wake up ready and able to conquer yesterday’s immovable object. Don’t try any of the same tactics. Your fresh angle will clear all obstacles in the path to your prize. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It will be difficult for you to be selfish. Even when people urge you to make yourself happy first, you usually accomplish this by making someone else happy, either on purpose or just by accident. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your observations are keen, your insights spot on. When you apply these skills to your friend’s problem, you will both benefit. Of course, be as diplomatic as possible, too.
This $15 adventure harkens back to beloved 1990s games like “Super Metroid” and “Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.” They’re what we called “2-D side-scrollers”: You could move up, down, left or right, with the screen scrolling to follow
the high-def remakes of “Marvel vs. Capcom 2” and “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time.” Microsoft saved the best for last, though. “Shadow Complex,” the final entry in “Summer of Arcade 2009,” is one of the finest games of the year.

your character. (“Shadow Complex” is really “2.5-D”: The settings have three dimensions, but you can only move in two.) Your character is a hiker named Jason Fleming, who, with his girlfriend, stumbles across a massive paramilitary complex in the mountains. Your sweetie is taken hostage, so you have to storm the facility — armed only with a flashlight. Of course, you’ll quickly discover more lethal weapons, starting with a pistol and working your way up to a missile launcher. You’ll also find armor, grenades, explosive foam and other devices that will help you survive the waves of troops and robots that come after you. Combat isn’t the main attraction, though. “Shadow Complex” is essentially a giant maze filled with clever puzzles and hidden prizes. Some parts of the
maze can’t be solved until you find certain devices, like a rappelling hook or hyperspeed boots. You can race through the game, but it’s more rewarding to take your time and explore all the nooks and crannies. And once you’re finished, you can tackle a series of “challenge rooms” where you can stress-test all your cool new gear, challenging your friends to get the highest scores or fastest times. The story here isn’t much, and the shooting isn’t as crisp as you’d get in a 3-D game like “Gears of War” (from the same studio). But “Shadow Complex” delivers more fun than most games that cost four times as much. Three-and-a-half stars out of four. On the Net: • http://www.xbox.com/ en-US/games/s/shadowcomplexxbla/

In 1775, Britain’s King George III proclaimed the American colonies in a state of “open and avowed rebellion.” In 1914, Japan declared war against Germany in World War I. In 1939, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union agreed to a nonaggression treaty, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, in Moscow.

DEAR ABBY: Due to a low platelet count and a case of pneumonia, my physician put me on steroid medication. The drug has side effects, and one of them has been a dramatic weight gain — an instant, long-lasting bloat. When I eat anything that contains salt or sugar, my face becomes swollen. People approach me every day telling me to “hit the gym,” etc., so I go around constantly making excuses about my appearance. Abby, I work seven days a week. I can’t hide from the world. Either I take the medicine or I won’t be here. I hate facing the world each day, hearing people’s remarks and having to always excuse myself. Abby, what would you do? — MISERABLE IN MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, OHIO DEAR MISERABLE: I would tell anyone who was rude enough to comment on my appearance that the weight gain is a side effect of a medication my doctor had put me on. I would not make excuses, I would not be apologetic, I would simply tell the unvarnished truth. willP.S.fillI hope you are better soon.

DEAR ABBY: I am an early education schoolteacher in my third year of teaching. I love my job and value the importance of education. Another teacher in my grade, “Natalie,” is a nice woman, and we get along well. However, it is almost impossible to have an adult client conversation with her. Every time we chat, I have to ex-
plain the meaning of a word I used. Abby, I am somewhat bookish, but I don’t think I use words that are hard to understand. Natalie is unfamiliar with the definition of words someone her age should know. Other teachers have voiced the same opinion to me. Some people have a low opinion of teachers, and I feel that Natalie’s narrow vocabulary adds to this. Am I whining needlessly? — YOUNG EDUCATOR IN UTAH DEAR YOUNG EDUCATOR: You’re not whining needlessly; you are whining to the wrong person. If you and the other teachers are concerned about Natalie’s qualifications to teach, you should voice those concerns as a group to the head of your department or the principal of the school.

DEAR ABBY: I have an idea that may prove useful to parents. I have worked in law enforcement for more than 18 years, including as a state police dispatcher. There are often stories in the media of children lost or abducted in the blink of an eye. Because of the proliferation of cell phones with cameras, there is now a way to help law enforcement officials get the word out via Amber Alerts and news bulletins. Parents should take advantage of these photo opportunities. Before leaving home for the day on a shopping trip or family outing, take a picture of your chilDear dren in the Abby outfits they are wearing Universal Press that day. Syndicate Once you are all back home, safe and sound, you can delete that picture and the next day take a new one. That way, you’ll always have a current photo of how your child looks “today,” not six months or more ago at a special event. You also won’t have to rely on your memory of exactly what your child was wearing if he or she should go missing. Time is of the essence, so take advantage of the technology that’s available in today’s world. — JANET IN AURORA, ILL. DEAR JANET: That’s a great idea. I am sure many thousands of parents will be grateful for your suggestion. Thank you!

Movie theaters cut printing of show times as Web gains By DAVID TWIDDY AP Business Writer
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Filmgoers who have long turned to the local newspaper to find theaters and show times for movies may have to start looking elsewhere as theater chains rethink the value of paper and ink in a digital age. The top two U.S. chains, Regal Entertainment Group and AMC Entertainment Inc., have begun in recent months to reduce or eliminate the small-type listings showing the start times for movies at individual theaters. Theaters typically must pay newspapers to print that information. Looking to cut costs, the theater chains are instead directing consumers to their Internet sites or thirdparty sites, like Fandango, Moviefone or Flixster, which offer those listings for free and make money from the fees they charge for selling advance tickets to movies. Many of those sites also feature film reviews and movie trailers. The effort may be gaining some traction, as U.S. Internet traffic to AMC’s Web site rose 21 percent in July compared with a year ago, according to comScore Inc., while visits to Regal’s Web site were up 18 percent. The Newspaper Association of America doesn’t track revenue that newspapers generate from print movie listings, but believes the amount is relatively small. Yet every dollar counts as newspapers are forced to cut staff, reduce the frequency of print editions or even close completely amid the recession. And readers have come to expect such listings. Seeing them curtailed or disappear could give them yet another reason to abandon their subscriptions. “For a reader, some things that are ads are actually considered news,” said Mort Goldstrom, the NAA’s vice president of advertising. “Ads for concerts and things at clubs, for restaurants and movies — that’s a reason people read.” He said the pullback in listings will hurt theaters by reducing their visibility among potential customers, sending those dollars to competitors that still buy listings or to other sources of entertainment like plays or clubs. Readers formulating weekend plans “may look at something broader than Moviefone,” he said. “That’s the piece that newspaper Web sites have and niche (entertainment) publications have.” Kansas City-based AMC helped shine a spotlight on the trend last month when it pulled its listings from The Washington Post, prompting the newspaper’s ombudsman, Andrew Alexander, to deflect readers’ ire in his blog. “Most readers believe that it was the newspaper’s decision,” Alexander wrote, comparing it to The Post’s recent move to cut back on the newspaper’s television listings. “In fact, movie listings in the print product are paid advertising, and it was AMC’s decision to stop paying.” The Post declined further comment, and Alexander wrote in his column that the newspaper wouldn’t tell him either how much revenue the AMC ads provided. AMC spokesman Justin Scott said daily movie listings are expensive and the theater chain believes that that money would be better spent promoting its value programs or other theater events. “In an era when many moviegoers are using alternative resources to access show times, AMC has chosen
to reallocate its show-time information methods,” Scott said. Scott wouldn’t say where else AMC has cut its listings and how much it has saved. But he said “so far we’ve seen no impact on attendance.” Regal, based in Knoxville, Tenn., said its in-theater and online surveys found 60 percent to 80 percent of respondents saying they received their movie listings online. “So we’ve evaluated our newspaper strategy on a case-by-case basis and in a number of markets have eliminated our newspaper ads,” spokesman Dick Westerling said, adding that in other markets Regal theaters run movie listings only on the weekends. The company has eliminated ads in such markets as San Francisco, Seattle, St. Louis and Orlando, Fla. Westerling would not disclose how much Regal spends on movie listings, but he said ticket sales haven’t significantly changed. He said that the company has also tapped social networks, such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, to communicate listings with customers who sign up for updates. Carmike Cinemas, a Columbus, Ga.-based chain that operates primarily in smaller towns, also has cut back on newspaper ads in some markets, in most cases just buying listings on the weekends. “Out of the 50 markets where we’ve done drastic reductions, I’ve received one complaint,” said Dale Hurst, Carmike’s director of marketing. “I’m not trying to be a soothsayer but everyone seems to be going high-tech. They want it now.” Some newspapers don’t charge for movie listings, considering them akin to community meeting notices or television listings. In markets where the listings are free, Regal and AMC said they’ve continued to run movie listings. The NAA’s Goldstrom said, though, that he knew of no newspaper that has dropped fees as a result of the theaters’ pullback. Movie studios, meanwhile, have been cutting their own newspaper advertising as well. The newspaper trade group said national movierelated display advertising totaled $141.5 million in the first quarter of 2009, or 51 percent lower than five years ago. Ken Doctor, a media analyst with Outsell Inc., said some newspapers have responded by teaming up with Web sites that sell movie tickets, gaining a small revenue stream on each ticket sold, or by selling movie studios sponsorships for parts of their Web sites. For example, he noted that The New York Times displays small ads for movies when a user wants to e-mail a news story to a friend. In general, though, Internet ad rates haven’t matched what print commands. And as social-networking sites like Twitter and Facebook become the place to learn about which movies are hot and where they’re playing, he said, newspapers and their Web sites risk losing their readers if they cannot quickly figure out how to tap in. Andrew Lipsman, director of industry analysis for comScore, said the online sites have become more interactive than newspapers. Although newspapers may try to add similar features to their own sites, he said, the damage may be done. “Once a behavior has moved from the print medium to online, in many cases people go to the online brands,” Lipsman said. “They won’t necessarily go to the newspaper.”

Garden Party Amid recession, Americans have learned their lesson well and seek pleasing spaces at home By KIM COOK For The Associated Press
Retail may be in a drought, but for many garden supply stores, it’s been a green season in more ways than one. We’re paying a lot more attention to beautifying our own backyards, perhaps because we’re traveling less. Americans are spending about 20 percent more than last year on planters, benches and outdoor accessories, according to online sales tracker CSN. That’s what often happens during a recession, apparently. Sharon Acocella, manager of Tony’s Nurseries in Larchmont, N.Y., remembers her old boss saying years ago, “Economy’s doing badly; we’d

better buy heavy.” She reports that while there’s been a falloff in some categories — notably statuary and fancier items — there has been vigorous activity on other fronts. “Blue and black glazed pots are more popular than ever,” she says. “We’ve re-ordered those, and many of our square and rectangular containers, too.” Next door at Larchmont Nurseries, Gloria DeMatas and Donna Bianco echo the positive assessment. They’ve done well with wind chimes, window boxes and pottery. “We’ve sold lots of cobalt blue pots. They’re so eyecatching; they stand out nicely in the garden, and all flowers look beautiful in a blue pot,” says DeMatas. Birdbaths are another brisk seller. “Right now, people are enjoying staying at home,” Bianco says. “Inside and out, they want to surround themselves with things that make them happy.” People investing
the last of their discretionary cash in their gardens probably want to enjoy them beyond the summer. Pam Brooks, president of online retrailer Arizona Pottery, likes the durability of polyresin planters, which resist the stresses of freeze and thaw and are conveniently lightweight. “They’re crackproof, weatherproof, and will never fade like plastic,” Brooks says. A wide palette of hues, and styles ranging from classical to modern, make these a versatile choice. For something a little different, Brooks suggests Vietnamese river clay pots, known for weather hardiness. Terra cotta is often rejected by consumers as delicate, but Brooks says “clay’s a natural material that, more than any other, creates a perfect ecological environment.” Plant roots maintain an even temperature in clay, which absorbs excess moisture. But the pots can dry out, and do need to be protected in winter. Try painting the pots inside and out with an insulating liquid resin. And make sure your plantings are well “crocked” by adding a bottom layer of pebbles or broken pottery for drainage.
Set saucered containers on pot feet and keep watering whenever the soil feels dry. Move potted perennials to a sheltered spot when the harsher weather arrives. Firebowls and pits are increasingly popular in colder climes. Tabletop and floor model propane-fed heaters, long popular in the Southwest, have found a wider audience. There are many versions of the firepit, some incorporating a coffee table or at least a ledge to support a smores stick. For something more unusual, consider the chimenea, or chimneyed outdoor oven; it serves well in the wind, and channels any excess smoke skyward. Online retailer Teak, Wicker and More has some attractive cast-iron designs, while FirePitsCentral has a huge range of bowls and heaters. There are other intriguing garden accents sturdy enough to take on the elements. Target’s copper rain chain, an Asian garden fixture, channels runoff down its links from the edge of a structure. Temple bells or laminated wood wind chimes provide soothing tones when the weather turns gloomy. Target’s also got stepping stones made of recycled plastic or frost-resistant cast concrete, to mark a path in style. Nestle one of Chiasso’s stainless steel spheres
