MOVIE REVIEW

SANFORD — A man accused of a Lee County stabbing murder in 2007 is back behind bars for allegedly stabbing another area man this summer. Investigators say Jonathan Filmore Spivey, 25, of 11145 N.C. 42 in southern Chatham County, was arrested Thursday in connection with a July stabbing at a Carbonton Road park. Spivey is accused of Spivey stabbing Sanford man Angel Camacho four times in the chest and ribs following a July 25 confrontation. Camacho was treated for his injuries at Central Carolina Hospital, but deputies have been searching for his assailant since the stabbing. Thursday’s arrest is not the first time Spivey is in the news

SILER CITY (MCT) — Chatham County sheriff’s investigators are awaiting a medical examiner’s report to determine whether a man died during an exchange of gunfire with deputies late Tuesday or whether he took his own life. Jason Teleki, 38, was found dead on a bed inside his home on Wednesday afternoon, nearly a full day after sheriff’s deputies attempted to arrest him. Teleki Teleki had been shot in the head and had a handgun at his side, said Maj. Gary Blankenship of the Chatham County Sheriff’s Office. The standoff began when sheriff’s deputies arrived at Teleki’s home on Greenhill Drive with arrest and search warrants about 6 p.m. Tuesday.

Today is Friday, Oct. 1, the 274th day of 2010. There are 91 days left in the year. This day in history: In the early hours of Oct. 1, 1910, the offices of the Los Angeles Times were destroyed when a bomb exploded, igniting a natural gas fire; 21 Times employees were killed. (The paper had been targeted because of its fiercely anti-union publisher, Harrison Gray Otis; iron worker James B. McNamara later pleaded guilty to planting the bomb and was sentenced to life in prison.) On this date:In 1810, America’s first agricultural fair, the Berkshire Cattle Show, took place in Pittsfield, Mass. In 1908, Henry Ford introduced his Model T automobile to the market. In 1939, Winston Churchill, recently appointed First Lord of the Admiralty by British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, described Russia as “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma” during a radio address on the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. In 1940, the first section of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, 160 miles in length, was opened to the public. In 1960, Nigeria became independent of British rule. In 1963, Nigeria became a federal republic with the adoption of its constitution. In 1979, Nigeria’s Second Republic was born as military rulers handed over power to a civilian government. In 1987, eight people were killed when an earthquake measuring magnitude 5.9 struck the Los Angeles area.

HARNETT COUNTY

MOORE COUNTY

GROUNDBREAKING FOR NEW HOSPITAL EXPECTED IN 2011

Man admits to copper theft from churches

LILLINGTON (MCT) — Groundbreaking for a long-planned hospital in Harnett County is expected to take place early next year thanks to a $38 million loan from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The 50-bed hospital on U.S. 421 in Lillington, about 30 miles south of Raleigh, is expected to employ about 100 workers when it opens and about 300 employees when fully operational. The target opening date for the not-yet-named hospital is mid-2012, spokeswoman Jennifer Franklin said. The hospital, the second in Harnett County, received the go-ahead from state regulators in 2008. Groundbreakings for the hospital previously had been scheduled for October 2009 and in May. They were postponed because of delays in getting funding. The economic downturn made it challenging to obtain the money “at a reasonable rate,” Franklin said. The most recent government funding for the acute care hospital in Lillington was announced Wednesday by U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge, who helped secure the loan. Etheridge, a Lillington Democrat, also helped the hospital obtain a $25 million USDA loan in March 2009. “This hospital will be a linchpin of economic development and quality

health care in the region for decades to come,” Etheridge said in a prepared statement. The hospital will be part of the Harnett Health System, which also owns the county’s other hospital: the 101bed Betsy Johnson Regional Hospital in Dunn. It’s one of a number of new hospitals or hospital expansions under way across the Triangle. WakeMed, Wake County’s largest hospital system, manages Harnett Health System. WakeMed CEO Bill Atkinson said the new hospital will cater to an underserved area that includes, in Harnett County, Campbell University and that extends to the area surrounding Fort Bragg in neighboring Cumberland County. “It should make a big difference in the quality of life for [the] community,” he said. Atkinson envisions the hospital attracting physicians who have their own practices as well. “I think you will see specialists who aren’t currently in the community ... will now come from other locations,” he said. “It will create a medical neighborhood.” In addition to covering the $53 million cost of the hospital, the two USDA loans will cover an upgrade of the information technology system at Betsy Johnson, which will serve both hospitals.

breaking into two chicken houses near Robbins and stealing copper pipes, Talbert said. Leaders at Brown’s Chapel Christian Church outside of Robbins, which Sheffield admitted to stealing from, were not aware they had been the victims until contacted by a reporter. After checking the outside of his chapel, Pastor Michael Parenti said he discovered about 10 feet of copper pipe running from the propane tank to the church’s heater had been removed. Fortunately, he said, the propane burner was turned off for the summer. The stories are similar at the other churches Sheffield targeted, Talbert said.

Health care coordination needed Winston-Salem Journal

S

ignificant health disparities between whites and minorities in categories such as chronic disease are a longstanding problem in North Carolina. One thing that might help reduce those disparities is more coordination of efforts. “We too often find ourselves in our silos, which tend to keep us from looking outside for innovation and opportunities to bring about change,” Anissa Vines of the school of public health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill told the Journal’s Richard Craver. Vines was one of several health-care professionals who

gathered in Winston-Salem last week to discuss the issue. They learned how much overlap exists in their research, vision and passion for improving the communities they serve. And they considered the 2010 N.C. Minority Health Report Card issued by the state. Once again, it was grim, with HIV infection rates for blacks and Hispanics several times more than those for whites; more blacks dying from heart disease, kidney disease, stroke and diabetes than any other ethnic group; rates of teen pregnancy higher for blacks and Hispanics than whites; and blacks and American Indians less likely than whites to exercise and eat healthy, and more likely than whites to be

obese. In Forsyth County and other areas, blacks also have higher rates of infant mortality. That’s especially disappointing in Forsyth, where the rate is already high. It’s easy to attribute the disparity to people not taking care of themselves and making bad lifestyle choices. But that doesn’t fix the problem, which is probably more tied to economics than it is to race. As one conference participant put it: “Poor wealth leads to poor health.” The problem must be addressed in broad fashion. Officials at the conference last week said there needs to be more emphasis on shaping governmental policies regarding health, such as including greenways and sidewalks in

neighborhoods inhabited by lowincome families. There need to be more grocery stores in poor areas and fewer fast-food restaurants. And people must be persuaded to quit smoking, eat more wholesome foods and exercise more. More promotion of these healthful behaviors, through public education and in the workplace, is in order. Some companies provide employees incentives such as discounts on sporting equipment and gym memberships. The benefits of reducing these disparities, and creating a healthier population, should be obvious. The work force would be stronger and more productive, and hospital and health-care insurance rates could go down.

Silly season

R

ALEIGH — In political circles, the time of year is known as silly season. It’s hard to imagine it getting any sillier. Angry candidates, smarting over incendiary ads, threaten lawsuits. They run from past words about this issue or that, saying they were misquoted or misunderstood. Meanwhile, court and administrative rulings mean that Osama bin Laden or the Mullah Omar could be pouring money into U.S. election campaigns and no one would be the wiser. Out on the campaign trail, candidates of all stripes talk about ethics or restoring values in America. As if anyone who could win office after running such a gauntlet could have the slightest notion of such things. Here in North Carolina, a Republican state Senate candidate filed a defamation lawsuit against Democratic state Sen. A.B. Swindell after a campaign mailer brought up 20-year-old drug charges against the challenger. The charges against Eldon “Buck” Newton were later dismissed after a prosecutor said they came about due to mistaken identity. “This case illustrates the absolute worst in bitter, underhanded, partisan gutter politics,” Newton’s lawyer said. We could hope that’s the case, but I’m not counting on it. There are still five weeks left before Election Day. Another state Senate race is also leading to some entertaining fingerpointing. The state Democratic Party filed a complaint against Republican Wes Meredith of Fayetteville after his landscaping company began running TV ads that sounded a lot like campaign ads. His Democratic opponent, incumbent Sen. Margaret Dickson, then made reference to a voter fraud investigation looking at an earlier Meredith campaign for city council. Meredith and the state Republican Party cried foul, threatening to sue Dickson and the Democratic Party. ... In the U.S. Senate race, incumbent Republican Richard Burr isn’t for privatizing Social Security this week and Democratic challenger Elaine Marshall isn’t for raising the retirement age this week. Any comments to the contrary that either may have made in the past should be ignored, at least until after Nov. 2. Thank you, voters, now return to normal programming. With the election nearing, grassroots groups — the result of spontaneous, neighborhood uprisings — will be tooling through town in expensive, bright-colored buses emblazoned with catchy slogans. The latest is something called Spending Revolt. Please ignore the Washington addresses of all the organizers. This is grassroots in action, and a nonpartisan effort. Really, it is. Watching the campaign season unfold, it’s easy to believe that you’ve sat down in front of another episode of really bad reality TV. I just can’t figure out whether it would better to have an English nanny beat some manners into the candidates, or ship them all off to a desert island for three months without food or shelter.

No laughing matter

Letters to the Editor Show the Yellow Jackets the same kind of love To the Editor: High school football’s Week 6 again goes to Southern Lee ... regardless of who won. Ever since the opening of Southern Lee High School, I have silently observed the Cavaliers receive preferential coverage from The Herald. Saturday’s paper takes the cake. There is no way you can justify the huge picture of the Cav’s loss on both the front page of the main section of the paper and the sports section. Plus on the sports section headlines, it reads “So Close,” in huge letters over the article about Southern Lee’s loss. There is no headline over the smaller article describing Lee County’s win over Green Hope that landed them in the playoffs. In addition, the picture of Lee County’s game on Page 1 of the sports section is condensed on the right side of the page, while Southern Lee again gets the larger byline and picture. To top it off, there was yet another article, an editorial in the sports section in Sunday’s paper about the Cav’s loss, “Cavs still feel sting a day later,” while Lee County’s record is 4-1. The same thing happened when Lee County beat Western Harnett, which prompted the letter from Sandy Whitehead about your prejudiced write-up and coverage. Your defense was that Southern Lee was at home and Lee County was away, which is no excuse. Who plays at home and who is away is immaterial. I thought with a new sports editor, coverage for Lee County would improve. I was wrong. If anything, the bias has gotten worse. I have nothing against Southern Lee. My objection is to the lack of fairness of the pictures and news coverage in the local paper. We have two high schools in Lee County, worthy of equal attention. Once a Jacket, always a Jacket.

S

AN DIEGO — There’s a great scene at the end of the film “And Justice for All” where idealistic attorney Arthur Kirkland, played by Al Pacino, uses his opening statement to tell the jury that his guilty client should go to jail. The judge bangs the gavel and calls Kirkland out of order. Fed up with a legal system that disregards truth, Kirkland shouts at the judge: “You’re out of order! The whole trial is out of order!” I’ve been thinking about that scene as criticism rolls in from members of both parties about comedian Stephen Colbert’s recent testimony before Congress. Colbert went to Washington at the behest of the United Farm Workers and with the permission of Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., who chairs a House Judiciary subcommittee. The seeds for this stunt were planted a few months ago when UFW President Arturo Rodriguez appeared on Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report” to promote a campaign inviting unemployed Americans to take jobs as farmworkers. The UFW set up a website with more information and offered to train applicants. Number of visitors to the website: more than 3 million. Number of people who expressed interest in farm work: 8,600. Number of people who followed through and got training: seven. What a shock. One of the interested parties was Colbert, who spent a day working at a corn and vegetable farm in upstate New York. The comedian shared his experience with the Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security and International Law. His central point: Illegal immigrants are essential to the U.S. farming industry because they take hard and dirty jobs that most Americans simply won’t do, and so those immigrants deserve a pathway to earned legal status. “This brief experience gave me some small understanding of why so few Americans are clamoring to begin an exciting career as seasonal migrant field workers,” Colbert said. “Normally I would leave this to the invisible hand of the market, but ... even the invisible hand doesn’t want to pick beans.” Colbert even proposed a solution. “Maybe we could give more visas to the immigrants, who — let’s face it — will probably be doing these jobs anyway,” he said. “Or maybe that’s crazy. Maybe the easier answer is just to have scientists develop vegetables that pick themselves.” Colbert was correct. Americans are too proud to admit that they’re not interested in a host of jobs their grandfathers did. But that doesn’t make it any less true. Besides, farm work is a young man’s game, and young people are especially resistant to trading in their electronic gadgets for hoes, shovels and pruning shears. It’s not just that they think themselves too good for those jobs. It’s also because they don’t have the

Tax cuts aren’t ‘gifts’ for the nation’s rich To the Editor:

skills for such work. So let’s put aside our pride and start treating farm work and the people who do it with more respect. And while we’re at it, let’s approach the immigration debate with more candor and honesty, and stop kidding ourselves about the kinds of jobs we’re willing to do and the kinds we need someone else to do for us. Still, Colbert’s appearance before Congress was a major setback for the immigration reform lobby. That’s because he made the event all about Stephen Colbert. He testified in character, hammed it up before the throng of cameras, and turned his congressional testimony into a comedy sketch. This is a serious issue that impacts people’s lives, and it shouldn’t be treated as a punch line. And yet, having said that, Colbert shouldn’t be blamed for making a mockery of the immigration debate — least of all by the lawmakers who, on that score, beat him to the punch. Colbert’s critics include Democratic Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, who hasn’t lifted a finger to advance the immigration issue because he knows that it would put congressional Democrats in a tough position, and Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, who once suggested installing an electrified fence along the U.S.-Mexico border because “we do this with livestock all the time.” That’s the problem with Congress. They take themselves and their proceedings so seriously. And yet, when it comes to their responsibility to ditch politics and lead on tough issues, they don’t take their jobs seriously enough. Some would say that in giving his testimony, Stephen Colbert was out of order. Who are we kidding? On this issue, the whole system is out of order.

Today’s Prayer If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face...then I will...forgive their sins. — (2 Chronicles 7:14) PRAYER: Father, thank You that we can be forgiven of our sins, if we confess and believe. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

It never ceases to amaze me that citizens of our country have a very basic disconnect when it comes to economics and taxation. A recent letter contained an opinion about the proposed extension of tax cuts and the perceived “gift to rich people.” First, allowing taxpayers to keep their money should never be characterized as a gift. There is no government benevolence involved when the sweat of one’s brow results in personal financial gain. It is why we work in the first place. Second, every time taxes have been cut, the revenue to the federal government has increased. JFK was the first modern era president to do this. So the function of not maintaining the current tax rates for the “rich” is to penalize those that have made money. How is that fair? If I go to school, take risks and create a successful business, why should I be despised? I will have created jobs and income for many along the way. Where does that deserve to be punished? Hopefully, not in the USA. I cannot stand it when arguments begin with “Democrats” or “Republicans” did such. It does not allow for full consideration of a topic. To limit discussion to “what one party does, the other doesn’t” creates misguided diatribes like the one in the recent letter. Think outside the party, please! MIKE NEAL Sanford

No charges for social workers in connection with Shaniya’s death FAYETTEVILLE (AP) (MCT) — A Cumberland County prosecutor is not going to file criminal charges against local social services workers who handled the case of a young girl who was killed. Multiple media outlets reported that District Attorney Ed Grannis was critical Thursday of both the county’s department of social services and the State Bureau of Investigation, which first examined the case. Grannis said the local DSS “dropped the ball” when it came to helping police during the investigation. Shaniya was abducted from a Fayetteville mobile home last fall. A man seen with her on hotel surveillance video, Mario Andrette McNeill, was charged with her kidnapping, rape and murder. The girl’s mother, Antoinette Davis, is facing child abuse charges

involving prostitution. A Davis family member has said the county DSS was monitoring the household before Shaniya’s murder. After the arrests, Fayetteville police complained to Grannis that they hadn’t received full DSS cooperation in the murder probe. Grannis asked the State Bureau of Investigation to look into it. Last week, however, Grannis took the DSS investigation away from the SBI and gave it to Sheriff Moose Butler’s internal affairs office. Brenda Reid Jackson of the Cumberland County Social Services Department said Wednesday she was unaware of any sheriff’s investigator talking to DSS personnel since last week. The DSS director said she and Heather Skeens, her assistant director for children’s services, have

implemented reforms in response to social worker complaints that surfaced with the Shaniya Davis investigation. Former and current county social workers have told The Fayetteville Observer that Jackson, Skeens and others manage the DSS by fear and intimidation. Some of the workers, who didn’t want to be identified publicly, say that records of DSS contacts with the Shaniya Davis family may have been altered, destroyed or fabricated to hide the county’s failure to make regular visits to the household before the girl’s death. County officials deny that the DSS is a hostile workplace, although they have acknowledged that the SBI may have examined the department’s record keeping.

Sanford men arrested in Myrtle Beach shooting By BILLY BALL bball@sanfordherald.com

SANFORD — Three Sanford men are facing charges related to a shooting last week in Myrtle Beach, S.C., according to police in the coastal community. The local men were arrested following a Sept. 17 shooting at the city’s Lamplighter Inn hotel, in which a woman was struck in the shoulder by

over a violent crime. Spivey was charged with first-degree murder in 2007 after a local hunter found a body in a wooded area off of Gilliam Road west of Sanford. The victim was Thomas Mathew Coore, a 23-year-old Pittsboro man who had been missing for days. When investigators found Coore’s body, he had been stabbed several times in the chest and

Deputies could hear voices inside the home, but no one came to the door or answered the phone, Blankenship said. Later that night, a team of deputies used tear gas to enter the home, Blankenship said. Someone began firing at the deputies, striking

gunfire during an evening altercation. Police are charging 23year-old Gregory Quick Jr. of 2814 Dumbarton Drive, 25-year-old Joshua Hendrick Van Ravestein of 5413 Bridal Path, and 22year-old Matthew John Veroni of 128 River Bend Lane in the shooting. Another man, 25-yearold Aaron Dominic Veroni of Fuquay-Varina is also charged in the case, police said.

Sgt. Terry Alcman of the Myrtle Beach Police Department said the shooting was reported in the hotel at about 7:30 p.m., when the four men invited a couple into their hotel room. After Ravestein pulled a gun from a duffle bag, the woman — who Myrtle Beach police declined to identify — and her boyfriend were trying to leave the room when Quick threatened them with the

ribs as well, said Capt. Jeff Johnson of the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. Spivey admitted he was with Coore the night of his disappearance and witnesses reported that he admitted to killing the Pittsboro man, Johnson said. He eventually pled guilty to voluntary manslaughter in April 2008, receiving a brief prison stay and five years of probation. Investigators say Spivey’s most recent arrest stems from his July altercation with Camacho. Camacho reported he was having a picnic

with a softball team at the Carbonton Road park when he began arguing with a group of men. Deputies say the group of men left the park and returned, with Spivey eventually walking up to Camacho and stabbing him. Spivey is charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury, as well as probation violation for the alleged offense. He was held in Lee County Jail under $60,000 in secured bonds.

a shield that the lead deputy was holding, he said. They could see his hand coming around a corner armed with a handgun, he said. Deputies returned fire as they retreated from the home and reconsidered their strategy, Blankenship said. Continued efforts to communicate with Teleki failed, and a search of the home using a State Bureau of Investigation bomb

squad robot found no one, though some rooms had apparently been barricaded, blocking the robot’s path, he said. On Wednesday afternoon, officers used a Raleigh Police Department fiber optic camera to peer into a secondstory bedroom window, where they found Teleki lying on the bed with an obvious head wound, Blankenship said.

gun, Alcman said. After a brief scuffle with the woman’s boyfriend, Quick allegedly shot the woman in the shoulder, investigators said. The woman was reportedly taken to an area hospital for treatment. Quick is being charged with attempted murder and kidnapping related to the shooting, while Ravestein is being charged with accessory before the fact. Mat-

thew Veroni and Dominic Veroni are both charged with accessory after the fact. Just days after Ravestein’s South Carolina arrest, he came under the scrutiny of Lee County investigators as well. Lee County and Sanford drug agents raided his Bridal Path home Wednesday, turning up a small marijuana-growing operation. Investigators said

Ravestein was storing four marijuana plants behind the home and several ounces of processed marijuana inside. In Lee County, Ravestein is being charged with manufacturing marijuana, maintaining a dwelling to store drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was released from Lee County Jail under a $20,000 unsecured bond.

Symphony

here helped me learn more about music.� The students didn’t only watch the performances, but had an interactive experience with the symphony. Curry and the orchestra showed students the different types of instruments and demonstrated the sounds of the woodwind, brass, string and percussion sections. “I’m looking forward to hearing the percussion because my brother plays it,� Peele said. “I like all the loud sounds.� Teachers also worked with the fourth graders in the weeks preceding the concert to prepare them for their trip to the symphony. The music teachers attended a workshop in early August where the symphony reviewed the musical selections for the educational concert and offered tips on how to teach students about the material. “The teachers prepare the students for what they’re going to hear so they can have a deep appreciation of it,� Chappell said. The students learned about the songs, the composers, instruments, operas and concert etiquette. They also learned “De Colores,� a song with English and Spanish verses that they sang while the orchestra played. Singing with the symphony was the best part of the experience for J.R. Ingram student Kaleel Berryman, who

said he enjoys being able to learn about music at school. “It helps me when I play drums at home,� Berryman said. Martha Oldham, a local symphony supporter who helped organize the trip, said education is an important part of the symphony’s mission. She recalls seeing the symphony when she was a Lee County elementary student, and she said it gave her an experience she couldn’t have gotten in the classroom. “(Students) really get to see what it takes to put together the music they might not hear on the radio or on TV,� Oldham said. The fourth graders from the elementary schools that did not attend Thursday’s trip will visit the symphony in January, and anyone from Lee County will get the opportunity to see the orchestra when it performs at the Dennis A. Wicker Civic Center on Nov. 13. Phillips said she hopes Lee County Schools will continue sending students to the symphony because it provides them with what could be a rare learning experience. “For many of them, it might be the only opportunity these students have to hear a live orchestra,� Phillips said. “I think it’s a real opportunity for them.�

Continued from Page 1A

“We’re here today to reinforce what your teachers have already told you about the various elements of music,� North Carolina Symphony Resident Conductor William Henry Curry told the students. “But we’re also here to show you that classical music is exciting and for everyone.� Taking students to see the North Carolina Symphony is a longstanding tradition in Lee County that began in the late 1940s. The symphony used to travel from city to city performing for students. But when Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts added Meymandi Concert Hall to its facility, the symphony asked that schools within a 50mile radius bring their students to the venue. “It’s great to be able to take them out of town to a real concert hall,� said Donna Phillips, music teacher at B.T. Bullock. Carol Chappell, director of K-5 instruction for Lee County Schools, said the trip to the symphony is meant to enhance students’ arts education. Based on the fourth graders’ enthusiastic response, the effort paid off. “It was very good,� J.R. Ingram student Dalton Peele said of the performance. “Coming

STATE BRIEFS

STORM DRENCHES COAST; 4 DIE IN WRECK

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A massive rainstorm drenched the East Coast from the Carolinas to Maine on Thursday, causing at least four deaths, flooding roads and washing away months of dry weather. The worst of the rain fell in North Carolina, where Jacksonville picked up 12 inches — nearly a quarter of its typical annual rainfall — in the six hours. Four people, including two children, were killed when the sport utility vehicle they were traveling in skidded off a rain-slicked highway and tumbled into a ditch filled with water, North Carolina troopers said. The rain was part of a system moving ahead of the remnants of Tropical Storm Nicole, which dissipated over the Straits of Florida on Wednesday. Much of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast were starting to move into a drought after the dry summer, and the fall storm provided several inches of much-needed rain. In Walpole, N.H., Erin Bickford said the deluge was a welcome sight for her eight acres of vegetables. She said she hoped the moisture also would recharge wells that went dry in the town. “We had almost no rain at all. Often, we could see it raining across the river, but it didn’t come here. It was just dust. Even if it did rain, it would be a tiny bit, maybe half an inch,� she said.

A Mercedes, right, sits stalled in a flooded portion of Latham Road as a tow truck arrives after heavy rain fell in Greensboro on Wednesday.

North Carolina Highway Patrol Trooper Gary Edwards said troopers initially reported five people were killed in the crash because two children, 3-year-old twins, did not have a pulse when emergency workers arrived on scene. However, rescuers were able to revive them and they were taken to a hospital alive. One of the twins later died, a news release from the patrol said. Edwards said the family of five from Atlanta was traveling westbound on U.S. 64 east of Creswell around 12:20 p.m. when their Jeep Cherokee hit a patch of standing water, hydroplaned and skidded off the highway into the ditch. Creswell is approximately 145 miles east of

Raleigh. The four killed were identified as the driver, Daniel Alvarez, 25; his wife, Natalie Owens, 26; Zacharia Alvarez, 3; and Ariela Alvarez, 1. Zacharia’s twin, Ezekiel, was taken to a hospital in Greenville. Crews throughout the northeast worked to pull fallen leaves from storm drains. Schools in North Carolina were closed and some farther north planned to cancel classes Friday so students wouldn’t have to travel on flooded roads. Baltimore Gas and Electric says approximately 40,000 of its Maryland customers have lost power. Josh Barnello, 12, took advantage of his day off to take a look at a pond that overflowed its banks in Carolina Beach.

“Someone was paddling a canoe down the street earlier,� said Barnello, a budding meteorologist who used a wind speed gauge he got for Christmas to record gusts of 53 mph near his house. Forecasters expected those heavy winds to spread up the coast, possibly toppling trees and power lines made unstable by the saturated ground. The winds also were churning up big waves that were eating away at a “living shoreline� of rocks, sand and grasses built this year on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, said Bob Gilbert from his waterfront home in Churchton, about 10 miles south of Annapolis.

Police find powder at home of Concord chief’s daughter CHARLOTTE (AP) — Search warrants reveal that detectives searching the apartment of a North Carolina police chief’s daughter recovered a stun gun and an unspecified white powder. The search warrants show that Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police detectives also searched the home of a man who left a tavern with 23-year-old Valerie Hamilton, who was the daughter of Concord Police Chief Merl Hamilton. Interviews with the six roommates who shared a home with accused killer Michael Neal Harvey said he brought home a woman he called Valerie less than an hour later. Harvey then spent the next day cleaning the house, something a roommate said he never did. One roommate did not see Hamilton because she had overdosed on heroin and was at the hospital. The search warrants were first reported by WSOC and The Charlotte Observer.

Jury convicts man for killing two Charlotte officers CHARLOTTE (AP) — A jury has convicted a man for killing two Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officers in 2007. Multiple media outlets reported Thursday that Demeatrius Montgomery was found guilty of two counts of first-degree murder, one day after the jury began deliberations. Authorities say 34-year-old Sean Clark and 35-year-old Jeff Shelton were responding to a domestic dispute when they were shot outside an

apartment complex. Prosecutors contended that Montgomery disliked all CharlotteMecklenburg police officers. Montgomery faces life in prison. A judge previously ruled out the death penalty in the case.

Plan could keep N.C. jobless from repaying benefits RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s unemployment benefits agency rolled out a plan late Thursday it hopes will prevent tens of thousands of jobless people from having to return $28 million in overpayments they received by mistake. The Employment Security Commission said it would work with the U.S. Department of Labor to offset the overpayments given out because of administrative errors between January and May. The labor department also has pledged to review claims in an accelerated method that could prevent any of the unemployed from having to return the money, according to the commission. The commission began sending out letters last week to about 38,000 people who were out of work for at least a year who were either overpaid or underpaid through no fault of their own. About 15 percent of recipients were underpaid and will be eligible for additional benefits. Others could face their benefits being reduced. The plan, announced after commission leaders met with Gov. Beverly Perdue, also will extend hours at the commission’s call center and the state working with the federal government to offset the money. Perdue spoke with assistant labor secretary Jane Oates about the matter.

AIG bailout exit doesn’t resolve TARP losses

NEW YORK (AP) — American International Group finally has a plan to exit the biggest of the Wall Street bailouts a month before midterm elections. But much as embattled lawmakers might wish otherwise, the book on TARP won’t close anytime soon. There’s no guarantee taxpayers who gave AIG a $182 billion bailout will be made whole under the plan the company announced Thursday. Under the deal, Treasury will swap its majority stake in AIG for common stock and then sell those shares over time. The government loses its authority to tap Troubled Asset Relief Program funds on Sunday. Democrats facing tough re-elections hope voters will see the bailouts as nearing an end. That will be a tough case to make. Close to $190 billion in TARP money has not been paid back. The Congressional Budget Office’s most recent estimate said taxpayers will never get back about $66 billion of it, although estimates of the final cost have been dropping steadily. The public remains angry about the bailouts, which were launched in the Bush administration’s final months. Americans have been particularly furious over the outsize bonuses that bailed-out firms paid to executives. The anger may dissipate as the economy improves, but it will linger until most sitting law-

AIG has reached a deal to repay the government billions of dollars in assistance it received during the credit crisis. makers are out of office, said Norman Ornstein, resident scholar at the conservative American Enterprise Institute. “Finding a way to reduce the anger, much of it misplaced, over what TARP did, is a pretty strong political goal� for the Democrats, he said. It will be an uphill battle, Ornstein said. TARP, which Obama administration officials say helped stabilize the financial system, has been targeted by the tea party movement as a wasteful giveaway that rescued Wall Street while ordinary Americans suffered the effects of the Great Recession. Democratic and Republican

lawmakers who voted for the bailout have had to defend their votes. The deal will give Treasury a 92.1 percent stake in AIG before it begins selling its shares. But it can’t be completed until AIG proves its strength by displaying its ability to raise money from private investors and regain a top rating from credit agencies. Otherwise, “this deal won’t go through,� CEO Robert Benmosche said in an interview Thursday. “The Treasury wants to assure itself it’s investing in a company with the strength to be competitive in the marketplace.� Benmosche said he expects the transaction

to take place in the first quarter of 2011. S&P credit analyst Kevin Ahern said AIG’s rating will likely be upgraded in a month’s time, after it sells off a life insurance subsidiary and spins off another in an initial public offering. Before the stock swap, AIG will repay about $20 billion in loans it received from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. AIG plans to repay that debt in part through earnings it generates and the sale of some its subsidiaries. AIG has been selling some of its units since it received the initial bailout in September 2008. CEO Benmosche said

he would have preferred to put off an exit agreement until November, after the completion of some sales. But he said he wanted to make sure that as TARP expired, AIG wasn’t again thrust into the spotlight as a “ward of the state.� Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner praised the agreement. He said it “puts taxpayers in a considerably stronger position to recoup our investment in the company.� The government will receive about 1.66 billion shares of AIG common stock in exchange for its $49.1 billion investment. The shares would be worth about $29.67 apiece. In trading Thursday, shares rose $1.65, or 4.4 percent, to $39.10. So if the government is able to sell shares at their current price, it would make $15.8 billion in profit on that part of its stake. Part of the government AIG’s $182 billion bailout went unused. The rest is expected to be recovered from the sale of assets. Treasury’s work on the bailouts is hardly finished. As of Aug. 31, Treasury had tapped $460 billion from TARP for banks, auto makers and mortgage companies. Of that, $386 billion was disbursed, and $187 billion had not been repaid. AIG and automakers GM and Chrysler held the bulk of that money. The government is in the process of selling back shares of Citigroup

Inc., which received $45 billion in taxpayer support in one of the largest bank rescues by the government. The government said Thursday it raised $2.25 billion from the sale of trust-preferred shares, and has raised $16.4 billion so far from the sale of Citigroup common stock. The bank repaid another $20 billion in December 2009. The government’s remaining shares of common stock have a value of $14 billion at Thursday’s closing stock market price. AIG was one of the financial companies hit hardest by the credit crisis and received the largest bailout the government doled out. The insurance giant was not undone by its traditional business. Rather, it was felled by its dealings in complex derivatives. AIG also drew criticism for continuing to pay out bonuses to employees after it received the bailout. Some of those employees worked in the division that nearly destroyed the company. The government stepped in to rescue AIG because the insurer worked with hundreds of financial institutions throughout the world. The government believed at the time that a collapse of AIG would further hurt the already fragile credit markets, which had been shaken by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers.

President Carter lands in D.C. after hospital stay — Former President Jimmy Carter landed in Washington on Thursday after spending two nights in an Ohio hospital recovering from a viral infection that doctors say likely gave him stomach problems. Carter, wearing a dark blazer, landed in a small private jet at Reagan

National Airport just before 3 p.m. Thursday. He walked down the steps from the plane onto the runway and stepped into an SUV that immediately drove away. An airport police car escorted his SUV and two others from the airport. Doctors advised Carter, who turns 86 on

He headed to the nation’s capital after hospital officials said the viral infection had cleared up. Carter was in Washington for a longplanned, private meeting, spokeswoman Deanna Congileo said. Carter became ill during a Delta Air Lines flight from Atlanta to Cleveland, causing rescue crews to rush him to the hospital after the plane landed. His medical team recommended that he stay a second night for additional monitoring, hospital spokeswoman Susan Christopher said. The hospital stay has interrupted Carter’s tour to promote his new book, “White House Diary.� Carter canceled book signings in Ohio, North Carolina, South Carolina and Washington. Carter, a former peanut farmer elected to the White House in 1976, has worked in recent years as an advocate for peace and human rights, efforts that won him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. In the new book, Carter said he pursued an overly aggressive agenda as president that may have confused voters and alienated lawmakers. But he said the tipping points that cost him the 1980 election were the Iran hostage crisis and the Democratic primary challenge by U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy.

NATION BRIEFS McDonald’s denies report of dropping health care

OAK BROOK, Ill. (AP) — McDonald’s denies reports it’s considering dropping health care coverage for some employees in response to a provision of the health care overhaul. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday, citing a memo from McDonald’s to federal officials, that McDonald’s has warned regulators it could drop its plan for some 30,000 workers unless the government waives a new requirement in the health care overhaul. The company says in a statement Thursday it has been speaking with federal agencies to understand the law. The paper says last week a top McDonald’s official told regulators its insurance plan won’t meet a requirement for next year that it spend at least 80 percent to 85 percent of its premium revenue on medical care.

Emanuel leaving White House on Friday

CHICAGO (AP) — White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel is set to give up his influential national post Friday to begin a run for Chicago mayor, a job he has long coveted but won’t win unless he persuades voters he’s still one of them. People close to Emanuel said he will fly home over the weekend and hit the streets Monday to talk to voters, after announcing his resignation Friday. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says only that President Barack Obama will make a “personnel announcement� Friday morning, but even his vague comments made it eminently clear Emanuel is leaving. “He intends to run for mayor,� one person close to Emanuel told The Associated Press, requesting anonymity to avoid pre-empting the announcement.

The move pits Emanuel, one of the most powerful men in the nation, against a growing field of local politicians vying for the job that will be vacated next spring by Mayor Richard M. Daley, who announced last month that he will not seek a seventh term.

Postal service denied rate increases for mail WASHINGTON — The Postal Service’s bid to raise the cost of mailing a letter by 2 cents was rejected Thursday, denying the agency immediate relief from a worsening financial crisis. The Postal Service lost $3.8 billion last year and is headed toward an approximately $7 billion loss this year as people do more business on the Internet and the recession erodes the volume of marketing mail. In July the post office had asked for a special rate increase for letters, postcards, periodicals, parcels and other services as one of several steps to cut its losses. The agency also had suggested cutting delivery service to five days a week and closing or consolidating offices — issues that were not addressed in Thursday’s rate decision. The rate increase needed the commission’s approval because it was higher than the rate of inflation. The commission’s unanimous denial of the increase was a signal to the post office to deal with what its chairman says is an even bigger financial problem — a $5.5-billion-a-year obligation to set money aside for future retiree health benefits. Commission Chairwoman Ruth Goldway said the Postal Service’s request failed to fully justify the rate increase. She said the requested rate adjustment was not due to the recent recession, but rather was an attempt to address long-term structural problems.

STUDENT’S SUICIDE ILLUSTRATES INTERNET DANGERS FOR TEENS PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — The shocking suicide of a college student whose sex life was broadcast over the Web illustrates yet again the Internet’s alarming potential as a means of tormenting others and raises questions whether young people in the age of Twitter and Facebook can even distinguish public from private. Cruel gossip and vengeful acts once confined to the schoolyard or the dorm can now make their way around the world instantly via the Internet, along with photos and live video. “It’s just a matter of when the next suicide’s going to hit, when the next attack’s going to hit,� said Parry Aftab, a New Jersey lawyer who runs the website WiredSafety. Last week, Tyler Clementi, a shy, 18-year-old Rutgers University freshman and gifted violist, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge after his roommate and another classmate allegedly used a webcam to secretly broadcast his dorm-room sexual encounters with another man. The two classmates have been charged with invasion of privacy, with the most serious charges carrying up to five years in prison. The suicide shocked and disturbed gay rights activists and others on campus. “Had he been in bed with a woman, this would not have happened,� said Rutgers student Lauren Felton, 21, of Warren, N.J. “He wouldn’t have been outed via an online broadcast, and his privacy would have been respected and he might still have his life.�

A group participates in a “lie-in� near the Student Center at Rutgers University, in New Brunswick, N.J Wednesday. The rally was in support of safe places for gay students, in response to the death of a Rutgers University freshman who jumped off a bridge last week after a recording of him having a sexual encounter with a man was broadcast. The Associated Press found at least 12 cases in the U.S. since 2003 in which children and young adults between 11 and 18 killed themselves after falling victim to some form of “cyberbullying� — teasing, harassing or intimidating with pictures or words distributed online or via text message. In probably the best-known case, 13year-old Megan Meier of Daddenne Prairie, Mo., hanged herself in 2006 after she received messages on MySpace — supposedly from a teenage boy — cruelly dumping her. An adult neighbor was later found guilty of taking part in the hoax, but the conviction was overturned. Earlier this year, 17year-old Alexis Pilkington of West Islip, N.Y., who had landed a college soccer scholarship, killed herself after receiving a stream of nasty messages. Gregory Jantz, founder of A Place of Hope, a

Seattle mental health care center, said young people who use the Internet to spread something damaging about others often don’t realize how hurtful it can be because many of them have grown up in a world that has blurred the line between public and private. “Our kids are in a different zone now,� Jantz said. Aftab said young people who would never bully someone face to face do it online in part because of the often-false sense of anonymity that the Internet provides. “They’ll also jump on because they don’t want to be the next target,� Aftab said. In Clementi’s case, prosecutors said that his roommate, Dharun Ravi of Plainsboro, N.J., and Molly Wei of Princeton, N.J., both 18-year-old freshmen, transmitted a live image of Clementi having sex on Sept. 19 and that Ravi tried to webcast

a second encounter on Sept. 21, the day before Clementi’s suicide. Lawyers for Ravi and Wei did not return calls. Luanne Peterpaul, vice chairwoman of the gay rights group Garden State Equality and a former New Jersey prosecutor, said authorities might be able to pursue the case as a hate crime under state law if they are able to establish that the defendants acted because they believed Clementi was gay. Ravi posted a message on his now-closed Twitter account on Sept. 19: “Roommate asked for the room till midnight. I went into molly’s room and turned on my webcam. I saw him making out with a dude. Yay.� Prosecutor Bruce J. Kaplan said in a statement: “We will be making every effort to assess whether bias played a role in the incident, and, if so, we will bring appropriate charges.�

10A / Friday, October 1, 2010 / The Sanford Herald MOVIE REVIEW: ‘THE SOCIAL NETWORK’

Well-structured ‘revenge of the nerd’ tale deserves hype

D

uring one of the legal depositions that serve as narrative reference points in “The Social Network,” Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg (portrayed with neurotic kinship by Jesse Eisenberg) responds to a question posed by the attorney representing plaintiffs suing Zuckerberg for fraud and copyright infringement by derisively asking whether “a guy who makes a really good chair owes money to anyone who ever made a chair?” It is the question that puts Zuckerberg on the proverbial hot seat throughout director David Fincher’s engaging motion picture about the creation – and creator – of Facebook. The screenplay by Aaron Sorkin (“A Few Good Men”; “Charlie Wilson’s War”) depicts Zuckerberg as a far-sighted savant on the online medium but also possessing an almost pathologic mixture of genius and jerkiness whose motives for constructing the world’s largest social network are as simple as revenge and the evergreen need for acceptance. The film opens with Zuckerberg as a Harvard undergraduate feebly trying to stave off a breakup with his Boston U. girlfriend Erica (Rooney Mara) in a crowded café. Written and delivered using Sorkin’s trademark, rapid-fire cadence, the conversation ends with Erica telling Mark, “You’re going to go through life believing that girls don’t like you because you’re a

Jesse Eisenberg, left, and Joseph Mazzello are shown in a scene from “The Social Network.” nerd, and I want you to know from the bottom of my heart hat that’s not true. It’ll be because you’re an a--hole.” In Sorkin’s tableau, this incident propels Zuckerberg, then a Harvard undergrad, to hack into the private digital facebooks of various sorority houses and compile them into Facemash, in which users could compare photos and rate which coed was “hotter.” It is no accident that this infantile stab at social networking – which was instantly so popular it crashed Harvard’s computer servers – indirectly assailed two groups: girls and the campus social elite. For Sorkin, rejection is the driving force behind Facebook’s genesis – rejection by girls, fraternities, athletes, and the privileged. Facebook was

not merely a giant middle finger to Zuckerberg’s supposed tormenters. It was his way of constructing his own fraternal order in an arena where he felt most comfortable: the Internet. It is a club in which everyone is invited, but Zuckerberg is always the gatekeeper. The marriage of Fincher and Sorkin seems odd at first blush. However, Fincher’s dark, deliberate style proves the calming yin to Sorkin’s rhythmic, propulsive yang. The film’s narrative structure essentially consists of scenes from depositions taken during the course of separate lawsuits brought against Zuckerberg, followed by flashbacks to the events that give rise to the testimony at hand. The “Rashomon”-style format leaves room for the film to present the perspectives of all participants, and for

the filmmakers to hedge their factual bets. The first lawsuit is brought by fellow Harvard classmates Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss (Armie Hammer in a digitally enhanced dual role), identical twin gentlemen of privilege and Olympiccaliber rowing champs. This conflict encapsulates not only Zuckerberg’s unease with WASP elitists, but also the age-old clash between nerds and jocks. The irony, filtered through Sorkin’s clever pen, is that while the Winklevosses can be viewed as whiners and borderline buffoons (then-Harvard president Larry Summers does as much when the brothers lodge a formal complaint against Zuckerberg with the university), there’s a legitimate argument that they are truest victims of all, having approached Zuckerberg with the idea for helping develop a Harvard networking website that he would turn into Facebook under their noses.

The other civil action, lodged by Facebook cofounder Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield, recently tapped as the new Spider-Man) is more Shakespearean. Differences of opinion between Saverin and Zuckerberg over Facebook’s business model lead to a rift between the former best friends, one exploited by Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake, with relish), the one-time Napster co-founder and tech demigod that Sorkin couches as a smooth-talking scoundrel and leach. Parker coos a siren song of notoriety and billionaire wealth in Zuckerberg’s ear (predictions, it turns out, that were completely accurate) which prompts a spiral of betrayal and legal reprisals. It’s always dicey to write the incomplete story of living people in the prime of their professional and personal lives. In loosely adapting Ben Mezrich’s 2009 book “The Accidental Billionaires,” Sorkin takes dramatic liberties in his portrait of Zuckerberg. Unsurprisingly, Zuckerberg declined to cooperate with either the book or film, flashing a desire for confidentiality that belies the man who claimed earlier this year that privacy is no longer a “social norm” in the Internet era. For that reason, “The Social

Network” should not be strictly viewed as a biopic. Instead, it is more a snapshot of a time and place, one of the first films to effectively capture the youthful, technological exuberance that largely defined the aughts. Still, the film does stake his claim as to Zuckerberg’s psyche, one Sorkin believes is not governed by money or fame, but instead by simply wanting a seat at the cool kids’ table – Zuckerberg repeatedly resists Saverin’s efforts to monetize Facebook, insisting the site would “stop being cool.” The irony is this tech-led revenge of the nerds ends up succumbing to the same trappings of ambition, entitlement, and narcissism, as well as emulating the very social caste system they rebel against. The denouement to “The Social Network” not only recalls Zuckerberg’s personal Rosebud but also the Faustian fate that befell such movie tycoons as Daniel Plainview, Michael Corleone, and, yes, Charles Foster Kane. Like them, Zuckerberg becomes a virtual prisoner of his success, attaining everything except the thing he wanted the most. The geek may inherit the earth, but that doesn’t necessarily include happiness – or getting the girl.

WASHINGTON

Senate votes to turn down volume on TV commercials WASHINGTON (AP) — Legislation to turn down the volume on those loud TV commercials that send couch potatoes diving for their remote controls looks like it’ll soon become law.

The Senate unanimously passed a bill late Wednesday to require television stations and cable companies to keep commercials at the same volume as the programs

GREAT SELECTION ON GARDEN PLANTS • Garden Mums • Pansies • Grass Seed LI;>Q;S &;L>Q;L? 1OJJFS 305 N. Main St. • Broadway • 919 258-3843 “Where Old Fashion Service Is Still In Style”

they interrupt. The House has passed similar legislation. Before it can become law, minor differences between the two versions have to be worked out when Congress returns to Washington after the Nov. 2 election. Ever since television caught on in the 1950s, the Federal Communication Commission has been getting complaints about blaring commercials. But the FCC concluded in 1984 there was no fair way to write regulations controlling the “apparent loudness” of commercials. So it hasn’t been regulating them. Correcting sound levels is more complicated than using the remote control. The television shows and ads come from a variety of sources, from local businesses to syndicators. Managing the transition between programs and ads without spoiling the artistic intent of the producers poses technical challenges and may require TV broadcasters to purchase new equipment. To address the issue, an industry organization recently produced guidelines on how to process, measure and transmit audio in a uniform way. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., requires the FCC to adopt those recommendations as regulations within a year and begin enforcing them a year later. Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Calif., is the driving force behind the bill in the House.

OBITUARY: TONY CURTIS

E-BRIEFS

Defiance, resilience mark Curtis’ career

F

rom dressing in drag to posing nude for his 80th birthday, Tony Curtis truly was a defiant one. He overcame early typecasting as a lightweight pretty boy to become a serious actor in such films as “Sweet Smell of Success,” ‘’Spartacus” and “The Defiant Ones,” the latter earning him an Academy Award nomination. He resisted obsolescence, continually reshaping himself and taking lesser roles to find steady work in a business that prizes youth. He subdued alcohol and drug addictions, lived through six marriages and five divorces, and found peace with a new art as a painter. Curtis, whose wildly undefinable cast of characters ranged from a Roman slave leading the rebellious cry of “I’m Spartacus” to a jazz age musician wooing Marilyn Monroe while disguised as a woman in “Some Like It Hot,” died Wednesday night. The 85-year-old actor suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Henderson, Nev., near Las Vegas, the coroner said Thursday. “My father leaves behind a legacy of great performances in movies and in his paintings and assemblages,” Jamie Lee Curtis — his daughter with first wife Janet Leigh, co-star of “Psycho” — said

Actor Tony Curtis and his wife Janet Leigh are shown at Academy Awards, in this April 6, 1959 file photo taken in Hollywood. Curtis died Wednesday at his Las Vegas area home of a cardiac arrest at 85 according to the Clark County, Nev. coroner. in a statement. “He leaves behind children and their families who loved him and respected him and a wife and in-laws who were devoted to him. He also leaves behind fans all over the world.” Starting his career in the late 1940s and early 1950s with bit parts as a juvenile delinquent or in such forgettable movies as the talking-mule comedy “Francis,” Curtis rose to stardom as a swashbuckling heartthrob, mixing in somewhat heftier work such as the boxing drama “Flesh and Fury” and the title role in the film biography “Houdini.” Hindered early on by a Bronx accent that drew laughs in Westerns and other period adventures, Curtis smoothed out his rough edges and silenced

detractors with 1957’s “Sweet Smell of Success,” in which he played a sleazy press agent who becomes the fawning pawn of a ruthless newspaper columnist (Burt Lancaster). “Curtis grew up into an actor and gave the best performance of his career,” critic Pauline Kael wrote in her book “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.” Yet it was sheer stardom, not critical acclaim, that drove Curtis, said his sixth wife, Jill Curtis. “All Tony ever wanted to be was a movie star. He didn’t want to be the most dramatic actor,” Jill Curtis said. “He wanted to be a movie star, ever since he was a little kid.” A year after “Sweet Smell of Success,” Curtis was nominated for a best-actor Oscar in “The Defiant

Ones” as a white escaped prisoner forced to set aside his racism to work with the black inmate (Sidney Poitier) to whom he is handcuffed. “He’s one of those actors who in the ‘50s was a beautiful, charismatic leading man, who became sort of iconic as a sex symbol. Not somebody who you originally thought had a lot of depth. He was just charming and funny and yet he revealed himself to be quite complex and gave some great performances,” said actor and director Tony Goldwyn, son of film producer Samuel Goldwyn Jr. In 1959, Curtis teamed with Monroe and Jack Lemmon for a screwball landmark, Billy Wilder’s “Some Like It Hot,” which ranks No. 1 on the American Film Institute’s list of 100 best U.S. comedies. Curtis and Lemmon starred as 1920s musicians who disguise themselves as women in an all-girl band to hide out from mobsters after they witness the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. It was a masterful comic performance by Curtis, whose character pursues the band’s singer (Monroe) both in drag and in another charade as a Shell Oil heir who talks like Cary Grant, with whom Curtis co-starred later that year in the Navy farce “Operation Petticoat.”

Stand-up comic Greg Giraldo dies at 44 NEW YORK (AP) — Greg Giraldo, a stand-up comedian who specialized in rants and insult-filled roasts, has died. He was 44. Giraldo died at the Robert Wood Johnson Hospital in New Brunswick, N.J., after being hospitalized days earlier. New Brunswick police Lt. J.T. Miller said officers found Giraldo in his room at the Hyatt New Brunswick on Saturday night. The Home News Tribune of East Brunswick reported that Giraldo had suffered a drug overdose, citing New Brunswick police. Giraldo’s managers declined to comment Thursday. On Wednesday’s “Daily Show,” Jon Stewart paid tribute to Giraldo. Instead of showing the show’s traditional final segment, “Moment of Zen,” the program ran a “Moment of Greg,” playing a clip of Giraldo performing. “The comedy world lost a good man and a great comic,” Stewart said. “When you were working the clubs, he was just one of those guys that you loved to run into, because he was always a font of warmth and good humor and just smartas-hell comedy.” Born in New York, Giraldo initially pursued a career in law, earning a bachelor’s degree from Columbia and a law degree from Harvard. But he abandoned that path for stand-up, toiling in comedy clubs and on television. In one stand-up bit — one of his most popular on YouTube — he questioned opponents of same-sex marriage: “George Bush

Obscenity, whale snot take top honors at Ig Nobels

BOSTON (AP) — Next time you crush your thumb with a hammer and you’re in extreme pain, go ahead, let fly with every filthy obscenity you know. It really does help. At least according to Richard Stephens and his students, who earned a 2010 Ig Nobel prize, the award handed out by the Annals of Improbable Research magazine for silly sounding scientific discoveries that often have surprisingly practical applications. This year’s winners include scientists who developed a way to collect whale snot using a remote-control helicopter; doctors from New Zealand who found that wearing socks on the outside of your shoes reduces the chances of slipping on ice; and researchers from China and the U.K. who examined the sex life of fruit bats. The 20th anniversary edition of the Ig Nobel awards ceremony was being held Thursday night at Harvard University. The theme this year was bacteria. There was the world premiere of “The Bacterial Opera,” about bacteria that live on a woman’s front tooth, and door prizes for all 1,200 attendees: bacteria (it was on the tickets). As usual, real Nobel laureates were on hand to give out the prizes.

Whoopi Goldberg coping after mother’s death NEW YORK (AP) — Whoopi Goldberg says she channels her grief from her mother’s death last month by staying busy. The co-host of “The View” attended the New York launch party Wednesday for purewow.com, a website with daily tips for women 35 and over. She is an investor. Asked how she’s handling her mother’s death, Goldberg said, “I’m here, but it’s not easy.” Her mother, Emma Johnson, died from complications following a stroke. Goldberg had been doing a limited stint as Mother Superior in the London version of “Sister Act” and immediately returned to the U.S.

GIANT PENGUINS WITH NO TUX? FOSSIL FEATHERS SAY SO

On the surface, they’re shaped like the feathers of modern penguins. Popsicle-shaped wing feathers were densely stacked on top of each other to create a stiffened flipper, Clarke said. When they looked more deeply, the feathers were far different. The outer shape apparently

evolved before some microscopic changes that may play a role in penguin’s underwater prowess. Pigment is long gone in fossils. But left behind in feathers can be microscopic packets called melanosomes that in life contained color-producing pigments — and the shape of those melanosomes corresponds to different colors. So the researchers compared a library of melanosomes from living birds with these fossilized ones. The big surprise is that it turns out modern penguins have large melanosomes packed into grape-like clusters, unlike those of any other known bird, while the extinct giant penguin’s smaller melanosomes resembled

Toy-making giant Fisher-Price recalls more than 11M kid products

SCIENCE

WASHINGTON (AP) — Some ancient penguins may have been twice as big as today’s Emperor penguin but they lacked the dashing tuxedo. Researchers unearthed remains of a nearly 5foot-tall penguin that roamed what is now Peru about 36 million years ago, and they also discovered fossilized feathers that show back then, the flightless bird was a more motley mix of reddishbrown and gray. Thursday’s report in the journal Science is more than a curiosity about color. Analyzing the fossil led to a new discovery about modern penguins, which in turn raises questions about how their feathers evolved to help them become such expert swimmers. It’s one of the largest penguins that ever lived, estimated to have been twice as heavy as the average Emperor penguin of today. The second species of giant penguin discovered in Peru, it was given the name Inkayacu paracasensis, or Water King, part of a cluster of now-extinct penguin species that apparently ranged over much of the Southern Hemisphere. A stroke of luck helped paleontologists find the feathers. A student on the dig team, from the Museo de Historia Natural in Lima, discovered the fossil’s foot and noticed it had scales, evidence of soft tissue that’s rarely preserved. Maybe there

those of other birds, Clarke said. The scientists can’t explain the difference. But they say it probably has to do with more than the black tuxedo coloration of today’s penguins. Melanin, the pigment inside melanosomes, helps feathers resist breakage. So one possibility is that the melanosomes got bigger during later penguin evolution as the birds became better underwater swimmers and needed a more hydrodynamic covering. Clarke is anxious to get back to Peru and see if more fossil finds will help tell. The work was funded by the National Science Foundation and National Geographic Society.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Fisher-Price is recalling more than 11 million tricycles, toys and high chairs over safety concerns. The Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday that the tricycles and high chairs were blamed for children’s injuries. In the recall of about 7 million Fisher-Price Trikes and Tough Trikes toddler tricycles, the agency is aware of 10 reports of children being hurt. Six of them required medical attention. The trikes — some of which feature popular characters like Dora the Explorer and Barbie — have a protruding plastic ignition key near the seat that children can strike, sit on or fall on, leading to injuries that the commission said can include genital bleeding. Fisher-Price is also recalling more than 1 million Healthy Care, Easy Clean and Close to Me High Chairs, after 14 reports of problems. The pegs on the back of the high chairs can be used to store the tray, but children can fall on them, resulting in cuts and other injuries. Seven children required stitches, the commission said. CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum said manufacturers need to do more to build safety into their products before they reach store shelves. But she

also offered praise for Fisher-Price for “taking the right steps by agreeing to these recalls and offering consumers free repairs or replacement.â€? Most of the products were being recalled in the United States, but about 400,000 of them were sold in Canada. The two other FisherPrice recalls were: â?? More than 2.8 million Baby Playzone Crawl & Cruise Playground toys, Baby Playzone Crawl & Slide Arcade toys, Baby Gymtastics Play Wall toys, Ocean Wonders Kick & Crawl Aquarium toys, 1-2-3 Tetherball toys and Bat & Score Goal toys. The valve of the inflatable ball on the toys can come off and pose a choking hazard to children, said CPSC. The agency said there were more than 50 reports of the valves coming off the balls.

â?? About 100,000 Fisher-Price Little People Wheelies Stand ‘n Play Rampway toys. The wheels on the purple and green cars can come off, posing a choking hazard. Fisher-Price, based in East Aurora, N.Y., is a unit of Mattel Inc. Consumers can visit the company’s website at www.service.mattel.com for more information on the dates of sale and model numbers for the recalled products.

One year later, the Yellow Jackets will have an opportunity to do something about it as they meet the Jaguars, who return Green and Snotherly, at 7:30 tonight at Paul Gay Stadium. “Last year’s game was a game where we couldn’t make the plays that you have to make to win football games down the stretch,” said Lee County head coach Burton Cates. “We watch that film quite often.

UNC Investigation

Davis has no plans to resign despite report Cornerback Da’Norris Searcy cleared to play against ECU By BRIANA GORMAN bgorman@heraldsun.com CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina coach Butch Davis said Thursday he is not going to resign, despite the public revelations detailing financial transactions between former UNC associate head coach John Blake and prominent NFL agent Gary Wichard that date back to May 2007. “I expect to be the football coach here currently and certainly in the future,” said Davis, whose team had 12 players miss the first three games of the season because of ongoing investigations into agents and academics. A Yahoo! Sports article first reportDavis ed evidence of six wire transfers from The First National Bank of Long Island (N.Y.), Wichard’s private bank, to Blake, a $45,000 personal loan to Blake from that same bank and a Pro Tect Management credit card issued in Blake’s name. Blake’s lawyers told the Associated Press that Wichard loaned Blake money after Blake got into financial trouble after being fired at Oklahoma in 1998, but there was never an agreement to direct players to the agent. UNC director of athletics Dick Baddour, who once again reiterated his support of Davis, said the administration already knew most of the details of the article

Southern Lee’s Ace Chalmers runs for yardage in last week’s loss to Westover.

After devastating loss, Cavaliers look to regroup By RYAN SARDA sarda@sanfordherald.com SANFORD — Southern Lee head coach Tom Paris described last week’s heartbreaking loss to Westover as emotionally devastating. The Cavaliers, who are still searching for their first win since 2008, held the lead for much of the game in last week’s Cape Fear Valley Conference opener before allowing the Wolverines to climb back into it. Southern Lee eventually

gave up the game winning touchdown with just 35 seconds remaining in the game. As devastating as it might have been, Paris believes that taking Westover to the brink helped breathe a new life into the Cavaliers as they head into tonight’s Cape Fear Valley Conference battle with winless Western Harnett in Lillington. “We beat them in all phases of that game,” said

Ryder Cup

Woods, Stricker paired for start of Ryder Cup By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer

NEWPORT, Wales (AP) — Good thing for the Americans the Ryder Cup ultimately comes down to golf shots, not style points. U.S. captain Corey Pavin, his voice unsteady at the opening ceremony Thursday, introduced the 11 players on his squad and was about to sit down when he realized each team had 12 to a side. He overlooked Stewart Cink, one of his captain’s picks. Then came the lineups for the opening session, with Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker in the third slot. It was the first time since 1999 that Woods was not in the first match, leading European captain Colin Montgomerie to suggest the Americans were trying to hide him. Leading off for the Americans in fourballs is Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson, a big hitter whose driver broke on the range. Asked if Europe already felt it was 1-up based on Pavin’s gaffe, Montgomerie said: “I suppose that was a mistake. He just missed the one. He read the wrong name, but that was just unfortunate. I think he was very, very good in covering his tracks. It went very well. It was a first-class show up there. “And yes,” he added, “we are 1 up.” Europe had other reasons to feel

SPORTS SCENE

DT rotation is one of few bright spots for Panthers CHARLOTTE (AP) — The Carolina Panthers defensive tackle rotation looks nothing like what the team thought it would be this offseason and is drastically different from what it was a year ago. But the position that was one of the biggest question marks entering training camp has turned out to be one of the few positives for the 0-3 Panthers. Carolina has limited opponents to just 3.1 yards per carry behind unexpected starters Ed Johnson and Derek Landri and backups Nick Hayden and undrafted rookie Andre Neblett. “Right now, they’ve done a pretty good job,� coach John Fox said Thursay. “We’re 14th in defense and sixth per play, and we’ve been out there (on the field) quite a bit. So as a unit, they’re all playing pretty hard and playing pretty tough.� The Panthers traded away fifth- and six-round draft picks for Tank Tyler and Louis Leonard last year, but have since cut both. Tyler was the big surprise on cut down day, while Leonard was released on Tuesday after the team’s 0-3 start because he wasn’t producing. Those decisions came on the heels of an offseason in which the Panthers parted ways with long-time starters Damione Lewis and Maake Kemoeatu, who was coming off a torn Achilles, and decided not to re-sign 36-year-old Hollis Thomas, an important stop-gap on last year’s line. But while the Panthers probably never imagined carrying Johnson and Landri as their starters and Nick Hayden and Andre Neblett, an undrafted rookie from Temple, as their

Southern Lee JV game rained out SANFORD — Southern Lee’s junior varsity football game against Western Harnett has been postponed due to the wet field at Cavalier Stadium. The Cavaliers and Eagles were scheduled to meet on Thursday night at Southern Lee High School. The game has been tentatively rescheduled for Monday night at 6:30 p.m. It will be played at Cavalier Stadium. Friday night’s varsity game at Western Harnett High School, as of Thursday night, was still on as scheduled.

The consistent play of Ed Johnson and the rest of the Panthers’ defensive line has been the only bright spot for the winless franchise. reserves, they’re pleased so far with the results. The group will be tested again Sunday when Carolina plays at New Orleans. While the group isn’t getting the pressure the Panthers would like from inside, the tackles are part of a defensive unit that’s allowing just 3.1 yards per carry, sixth-best in the NFL. “You get guys, you put them out there and you evaluate them,� Fox said of the surprising decisions.� It’s hard to figure who’s been the bigger surprise for the Panthers — Johnson or Landri. Johnson, a 16-game starter for Indianapolis in 2007, was twice waived by the Colts and had only started five games over the previous two seasons. Combined with a suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy, there were many who wondered if Johnson’s career was over. “It was a fight for me,� said Johnson, who came to Carolina in part because

of his relationship with defensive coordinator Ron Meeks, who coached him in Indianapolis. “I just stuck with it and I’m thankful to God I’m able to be here. I just kept doing the things that made me successful in the past. What I’ve done, yeah, it feels good. But it will feel even better once we started getting some W’s.� Johnson said he never doubted himself. Nor did Landri, whom Carolina claimed off waivers in December from Jacksonville. Like Johnson, he’s enjoying a rebirth with the Panthers. He played in 35 games for the Jaguars from 200709 but was released after what he termed a “difference of opinion� with some members of the Jaguars strength and conditioning staff. “I think I still play the way I was taught in high school — play as hard as you can as long as you can,� Landri said. “It’s the old mentality of see ball, find ball, get ball, that type of thing. It’s not just about how hard you play, it’s about how smart you play.� The release of Leonard earlier this week opens the door for more playing time for Hayden and Neblett, who have mostly been inactive this year while playing behind Leonard.

currently in fifth place in the conference standings but all of that could change depending on the outcomes of tonight’s conference battles. “This is where our schedule gets tougher,” said Cates. “I’m curious to see how we handle it. Athens Drive is a good football team. The rest of our opponents are good football programs. This is where things get tough and I really want to see how our guys come out and respond.” With a win tonight, the Yellow Jackets will have secured their first winning regular season since 2006, when they finished 6-5 in the regular season before losing in the first round of the state playoffs. Cates says that the Yellow Jackets aren’t focusing on that, though. Instead, all Cates wants is for the Yellow Jackets to knock off the Jaguars tonight and Middle Creek next week, which will more than likely be enough to give them a home game in the first round of the playoffs. “We want to be at home in the first round and pos-

Paris. “We just didn’t win it. We beat them. But we lost the game. Hopefully, being that close will show these guys just what it is they have to do in order to win games. We’ve been working a lot on finishing games and eliminating costly mistakes. We want our mindset to be where if we beat people, we win the game.” Paris really believes that the Cavaliers (0-6, 0-1) can in fact get a victory against the Eagles (0-5, 0-0), who are coming off a bye week following a 31-0 loss to Pinecrest. “It’s not a talent issue or an issue of skill,” said Paris. “It’s all about flawless execution. We’ve got to be flawless if we want to win.

and it was part of the reason the school accepted Blake’s resignation on Sept. 5. “I’d rather not get into [the specifics] but I would say the substantive part of that we knew about,” Baddour said. Baddour said the financial transactions didn’t establish a violation and at the time weren’t enough to dismiss Blake with cause, but the school was not comfortable with what it had learned. Blake was paid $74,500, which he would have received if had completed the season. Davis said he had no idea of the extent of the relationship between Blake and Wichard, even though Davis has known Blake since teaching him high school biology, and

the greens on the back nine of Celtic Manor just at the sight of the European players approaching the green. By Sunday, all that matters are the points on the board. The Americans, who won two years ago at Valhalla to end a decade of European dominance, need only 14 points from the 28 matches to take the 17-inch gold trophy back home. “I cannot wait,” said Ian Poulter, who will join Ross Fisher in taking on the Woods-Stricker tandem.

sibly the second round,” said Cates. “We’re going to do everything we can to make that happen. We feel like winning these next two games will give us enough wins to make that a reality for us.” With Green and Snotherly, both of whom are three year starters for the Jags, and the rest of Athens Drive coming to Paul Gay Stadium, Cates knows that earning that sixth victory of the season against Athens Drive won’t be an easy task. “They’re very explosive offensively,” said Cates. “Their quarterback played very well against us last year and made some huge plays down the stretch. They’ve got some weapons at running back. They’re very skilled and fundamentally sound. They’re an explosive football team, there’s no doubt about it.” But Cates still has plenty of confidence in his Yellow Jackets, led by quarterback Carson Wilson, tailbacks Cedric Gray, Isiah and Israel Williams and wide receivers Daniel Dillon and Dequon Swann. The Yellow Jacket defense, led by Swann, the Williams brothers, Jalen Woods and Victor Ingram has allowed just 17 points in Lee

County’s last four games. “I’ve got all the confidence in the world in our guys,” said Cates. “If we come out and play well, I’ll be happy. If we come out and improve and make those next steps to becoming a better football program, I’ll be happy. As long as we continue doing things to keep getting better, I’m going to be happy.” Cates has seen his team grow since its week two loss to Richmond County in a game where the Yellow Jackets were competitive with the Raiders before falling 38-21. Since then, the Yellow Jackets have gotten significantly better and a lot more confident about the program and he hopes they keep getting better as the season progresses. “We talked all week long about how we aren’t the same team as we were four weeks ago,” said Cates. “ We’re a much better team now. It’s our hope that we can say the same thing about us four weeks from now. Our goal is for us to be playing our best football come November and the playoffs. We can do it, too. Our strengths just have to get even better and our weaknesses have to get stronger.”

We’ve got to eliminate those costly mistakes, especially in the red zone. If we can eliminate the mistakes and play flawless, especially late in games, I think this team can definitely get a victory.” In their season opener against the Lee County Yellow Jackets, the Eagles combined for just 27 total yards of offense. They have yet to score more than 14 points offensively this season. Still, Paris isn’t taking the Eagles lightly because he knows that it’s just a matter of time before they figure out who they are on the offensive side of the ball. “Western Harnett is a good football team that’s still trying to find its identity,” said Paris. “It’s only a matter of time before they find it. We definitely don’t want them to find it against us. They’re a zone team.

We’ve spent the majority of the week working aggressively with what they do offensively and defensively. Now, it’s just a matter of taking what we’ve done and carry it over onto the field.” Headed into last week’s game against Westover, Paris said he had a gut feeling that the Cavaliers would snap their 24-game losing streak against the Wolverines. Although it didn’t happen and Southern Lee came so close, Paris has the same feeling headed into tonight’s game. “I had a gut feeling last week,” said Paris. “This week is no different. We know what we’ve got to do and we’ve got to do it. It’s time to go out there and play. We’ve got to go out there and earn it on the field.”

said there were no red flags when Blake was hired. Davis and Blake also worked together in the Dallas Cowboys organization under Jimmy Johnson in the early 1990s. “I mean clearly, as the head football coach, you’d like to think you would know,” Davis said. “But the answer to your question is, I did not know.” Baddour said there were no signs that Davis should have known of the close relationship between Blake and Wichard, and said he does not see any lack of institutional control. “I’m confident that had there been signs of it Butch would have dealt with it and would have let me know about it,” Baddour said. “It’s hard in the absence of the evidence that would have pointed him in that direction. I don’t know how he could have known about it.”

The four pillars the NCAA uses to define institutional control are compliance systems, monitoring/ enforcement, rules education and commitment to compliance. A coach’s responsibility is outlined by bylaw 11.1.2.1, which states “head coaches have a responsibility to promote an atmosphere for compliance within the program and monitor the activities of assistants and staff who report directly or indirectly to the head coach.” Davis’ contract says he can be terminated at any time upon written notice with cause, including “a violation by the assistant coaches under coach’s supervision of which coach had reason to know, should have known through the exercise of reasonable diligence in the exercise of his duties under this Agreement, or which coach condoned.”

“This crowd tomorrow is going to be electric. The roar on that first tee will be sensational. I can’t wait to hear it and I can’t wait to get pumped for it. I can’t wait to give them some feedback.” The big mystery was the weather. Celtic Manor already is lush and soggy from rain in recent weeks, and the forecast is for more rain and blustery wind for most of the day. And while Montgomerie said he didn’t try to alter the setup, it has become clear that the best strategy is to play out of the short grass. This is one of the longest American teams in history. But the straightest?

They should find out immediately with a compelling match — Mickelson and Johnson, who play big-money games just about every week on tour, going against Lee Westwood and PGA champion Martin Kaymer, Europe’s best player and its most recent major champion. For Westwood, it will be his first competition in six weeks while he recovered from a calf injury. Playing his seventh Ryder Cup, he went to Montgomerie a few days ago and asked to be in the leadoff match. Montgomerie had thought about U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell and Rory McIlroy leading off.

DEAR ABBY

BRIDGE HAND

Roommate’s binge drinking is weekly worry for friend

HOROSCOPES Universal Press Syndicate

Happy Birthday: Don’t dwell on the negative when positive input will bring the best results. Be creative and insightful when working with others and they will help you to reach your goals. Look past any little pitfalls and strive for perfection. Discipline will pay off. Your numbers are 7, 18, 22, 27, 31, 36, 40 ARIES (March 21-April 19): Give everything you’ve got to how you earn and spend your money. The financial goals you set now will make the difference in how you live in the future. Look at long-term investments, not fast cash deals. 3 stars TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You stand a much better chance of getting what you want if you take people by surprise. Love, partnerships and traveling to meet with people in your life who count will all lead to getting ahead personally or professionally. 3 stars GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t get trapped in someone else’s dilemma. Put your hard work and dedication into something that will benefit you and help you reach your goals. Watch out for emotional manipulation. 3 stars CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you waste time telling everyone what your plans are, you will not reach your goals. Criticism can be expected from someone older or dependent on you. Do not put up with negativity. Love is in a high cycle. 4 stars LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Before you give in to someone’s demands, consider alternatives that will ensure you put an end to such occurrences. Talks about travel or learning will give you a greater sense of what you are capable of doing and how to go about it. Problems with a partner are apparent. 2 stars VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There is nothing too difficult if you are willing to take the steps necessary. Success is within reach but not if you don’t put forth an effort. Plan each

WORD JUMBLE

move you make with precision, dedication and loyalty and it will pay off. 5 stars LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may feel at odds about what you should be doing and what you can do. Rethink your strategy. The changes you make at home will have the greatest impact, even if you face opposition initially. Change is long overdue. 3 stars SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t dismiss what’s being offered or an opportunity to network and take part in industry events. You have more to contribute than you realize. Once you get started, the outcome will alter your future in a positive and creative way. 3 stars SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Focus on what you do best and offer what you can to those in need. A change at home may be upsetting at first but it will be to your benefit to accept the alterations being made. Turn a new beginning into an adventure. 3 stars CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): Recognize and support the people you love and care for the most. It’s your strong belief in your own abilities that can help you encourage others to give an optimum performance. You have the drive and determination to increase others’ enthusiasm. 5 stars AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Take a good look at your current situation and you will come up with a plan that will help you budget your finances better and make your life a little easier. Don’t spend money trying to impress someone you want to get to know better. 2 stars PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Love is in the stars and getting together with someone you care for will lead to a greater understanding and a much better future. Making changes to your home to accommodate a new lifestyle is important. Combining several elements into one will bring you the highest reward. 4 stars

DEAR ABBY: I live with two of my best friends. We get along great because we respect each other’s personal space and business. My problem is my roommate “Michelle” drinks alone in our apartment. She consumes eight to 12 alcoholic beverages in an evening. She does this once a week, usually during the week. The next morning she’ll complain that she’s “sick” when she has to get up for work, but I know she’s hung over. Our other roommate spends little time at our place and doesn’t want to speak to her about this, even though he agrees she has a problem. How should I approach Michelle about this? I’m afraid if I say anything she’ll think I’m accusing her of being an alcoholic. I want to maintain peace in our home, but I’m worried about her. Any suggestions for how I should handle this? — FEARFUL IN FAIRBORN, OHIO DEAR FEARFUL: You are right to be concerned about Michelle. If she isn’t an alcoholic, she is well on her way to becoming one. From your description, she is bingeing on a regular basis. The way to approach her is to tell her you’re worried. Eight to 12 drinks in an evening is a huge amount of alcohol. And if she’s going to work hung over, it is already having a negative impact on her job. Offer to attend an AA meeting

with Michelle. (They are listed in most telephone directories.) When you get there you’ll find pamphlets are available that contain a selftest people can take to determine whether they need help. I know for sure she will have to answer yes to at least one of the questions — “Do you wish people would stop nagging you about your drinking?” — because by the time you get there, YOU will have nagged her.

DEAR ABBY: I have just become engaged to “Egon,” who is from Norway. He has a great job and is studying to be a masseur. He tells me often that he loves me and would never fall for another woman. My problem is my sister “Ellen.” She’s happy about our engagement, but she keeps asking my fiance for lower back and thigh rubs. She claims she gets cramps from being on her feet all day.

Well, I’m on my feet all day and my thighs have never cramped up. What bothers me is Ellen makes embarrassing sounds of pleasure when Egon massages her. I’m upset with her because she constantly asks my fiance for massages, but I also get annoyed with Egon because — in a weird way — it feels like he’s cheating on me. He says it’s his job and I’m being silly. What I want to tell my sister is, “Sorry, but those intimate rubdowns belong to me now. Find someone else for yours!” Abby, am I being unduly jealous or is what she’s doing wrong? — RUBBED THE WRONG WAY IN FLORIDA DEAR RUBBED THE WRONG WAY: If you are going to marry someone who makes his living as a masseur, you need to understand clearly, in advance, that he will be working on all kinds of clients. This means men and women, some old and saggy, and others who are young, buffed and may be drop-dead gorgeous. Your fiance may enjoy his work, but it IS work and he will receive compensation for his efforts. If the back and thigh rubs Ellen is requesting have become so frequent that it’s making you uncomfortable, I suggest you and Egon agree that he shouldn’t be giving away what he’s selling, and instead he should offer your sister a “family” discount.

ELOY, Ariz. (AP) — These thieves made a clean getaway. The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office says in two recent burglaries, thieves entered homes in Eloy, made a mess, stole things and even took showers. The first robbery on Sept. 20 occurred late at night when a homeowner confronted two men trying to steal food and water about 65 miles south of Phoenix. The burglars got away but scattered food and water around the house along with backpacks. The homeowner also discovered they had showered and used the toilet. Tuesday morning, deputies responded to another Eloy residence. The female homeowner told deputies thieves stole a knife and food and once again used the shower. No arrests have been made.

PASCO, Wash. (AP) — Just super-spud me. The head of the Washington state Potato Commission says he’s sick of people linking spuds to junk food. So, starting Friday, Chris Voight says he’s going to eat nothing for 60 days except potatoes. Twenty plain potatoes a day. And no cheating with cheese toppings or bacon bits. Voight says potatoes are rich in potassium, fiber and vitamin C and have plenty of protein.

Suspect runs into library while fleeing police

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — A Purdue University student has transformed an old motorcycle into a solar-powered bike with a top speed of 45 mph. The university says in a statement that physics major Tony Danger Coiro (COY’Roh) bought the 1978 Suzuki for $50 and spent $2,500 retrofitting it into a streetlegal bike. Two solar panels mounted on either side of the bike charge its lead acid batteries, but they are also chargeable with a plug-in AC current. Coiro’s solar bike has a range of about

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — Shhhh! Arrest under way. A man fleeing police after a traffic stop in Missoula, Mont., ran into the city library Wednesday and hid in a restroom, prompting an evacuation while police arrested him. Police say the man refused to get out of his vehicle during a traffic stop. While driving away, he struck the front tire of a bicycle. Lt. Geron Wade says the bicyclist did not appear to be seriously injured.

Confidence in God’s promises Q: I’m having a hard time these days, both physically (several surgeries in recent years) and spiritually. I know I asked Christ to come into my life when I was a teenager, but now I wonder if I’d go to heaven if something happened to me. How can I know? -- Mrs. M.W.R. A: God doesn’t want you to be filled with doubt about your salvation, or spend the rest of your life wondering if He’ll welcome you into heaven when you die. Instead, He wants you to have confidence in what He has promised us in His Word: That if we’ve truly trusted Christ for our salvation, God has already given us the gift of eternal life. The Bible says, “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John 5:13). As I heard someone say many years ago, “God said it... I believe it... so that settles it!” Let me ask you a question: When you gave your life to Jesus as a teenager, what exactly were you doing? Were you just promising to live a better life? No, it was something far greater than that. What you were doing was trusting Christ -- and not yourself -- for your salvation. You realized that Jesus Christ had died for you, and He took away all your sins. Don’t trust your feelings, for they can deceive you (especially when you aren’t feeling well). Don’t trust in your own goodness, either -for God’s standard is perfection, and no one measures up to that standard.
