Apex Herald Editor
Wake County School Board Chairman
Ron Margiotta firmly believes that under
his guidance the board has become more
responsive to the needs of families.
Challenger Susan
Evans thinks the cur-
rent board has polar-
ized the county while
becoming a punch-line
for comedians.
In the end, it will be
up to the voters to de-
cide.
Margiotta and Evans
squared off in a District
8 candidate forum Sept. 27 at the Carey
C. Jones Building in Apex. The event was
co-sponsored by WakeUp Wake County
and the League of Women Voters of
Wake County.
Election Day for the school board race
is Tuesday, Oct. 11.
Margiotta and Evans answered seven
questions from event organizers before
taking an additional 13 inquiries from the
crowd of more than 100 people.
The candidates shared their views on a
myriad of topics including student assign-
ment plans, magnet schools, year-round
schools, school accreditation, educa-
tional resources, and allocation of funds.
Margiotta repeatedly pointed to the
hiring of Wake County Public School
System Superintendent Tony Tata as
an example of the school board’s wise
decision-making.
“He’s bringing fresh and new ideas,”
said Margiotta.
Margiotta also stressed his belief that
the school board is responding to the de-
sires of families by attempting to assign
students to neighborhood schools.
“Parents want their children at schools
closest to home,” said Margiotta. “Par-
ents overwhelmingly choose proximity.”
The incumbent noted that 18 per-
cent of students in the county attend
private schools, a number that is twice
the national average. He inferred that
a multitude of past
reassignment plans
had soured parents on
WCPSS.
“We need an assign-
ment policy that brings
students back to pub-
lic schools,” said Mar-
giotta.
Margiotta also
praised the current
school board’s fiscal re-
sponsibility, especially during such dif-
ficult economic times.

Rex Healthcare announced today that the
North Carolina Division of Health Service Regula-
tion has approved two Certificate of Need (CON)
applications. The projects approved include:
• 50 beds in Holly Springs to build Rex Holly
Springs Hospital
• Phase I for a replacement bed tower, includ-
ing relocation of 115 acute care beds from Rex’s
aging patient tower, relocation of 2 existing op-
erating rooms, and consolidation of all existing
heart & vascular services
“We are pleased with the state’s decision that
allows us to grow in order to meet the needs of
our community,” said Rex Healthcare President
David Strong. “The residents of southern Wake
County have long wanted and needed hospital
services in their community. In addition, con-
solidation of Rex’s existing heart and vascular
services into one location, as we start phase 1 of
our bed tower, will make accessing Rex services
easier for our patients.”
“It is exciting to see the beginning of the vision
we all share for heart and vascular services in
Wake County,” said James Zidar, M.D., president
of Rex Heart & Vascular Specialists. “This new
facility will allow us to bring services into Wake
County that do not exist today for the benefit of
cardiovascular patients.”
“This is wonderful news for our patients,”
said Michael Zellinger, M.D., president of Wake
Heart & Vascular Associates. “Our group joined
with UNC because of Rex/UNC’s vision for heart
and vascular care. This means we can begin to
execute on our vision of building a world class
heart facility in Wake County that will allow our
patients to receive the highest level of care for
which they currently need to travel outside of
Wake County.”
Construction is almost complete on Rex
Healthcare of Holly Springs.
The outpatient center will open for patient
care in early December 2011, with physician
practices, express care and diagnostic services.
Rex Holly Springs Hospital will be built at the
current Rex site on the corner of Avent Ferry
Road and Highway 55, with completion planned
for late 2014.
“The state’s decision to build a hospital in
Holly Springs means they’ve recognized the
healthcare needs of our residents,” said Dick
Sears, mayor of Holly Springs. “The citizens of
southern Wake County, including Fuquay-Va-
rina, Willow Springs, Angier, will have important
health services closer to home.”
“This is incredible news for Holly Springs
and all of southern Wake County,” stated Holly
Springs Town Manager Carl Dean. “Our resi-
dents deserve accessible hospital care and we
are thrilled the state has validated our decade-
long effort, and Rex Healthcare’s commitment,
to our community.”

Music is in Dori Staehle’s blood.
Growing up in New Jersey, music was
always a part of her life. She grew up lis-
tening to all kinds of music in her home.
Staehle’s father was a jazz musician who
played in New York clubs with some of
the greatest names in the business. She
taught herself guitar and percussion and
took voice and dance lessons.
Staehle began handling booking and
promotion about 10 years ago for her
son and daughter who were part of a
local band. She took over the task of
lining up venues and booking engage-
ments for the band and looking out for
their interests.
“We found out there was a very vi-
brant music scene, which we didn’t an-
ticipate at all when we moved here from
Colorado,” says Staehle.
Word spread of her ability to book
shows and her entertainment company,
Next Stage Entertainment, was born.
She soon began organizing Band Nights
for local towns and ‘Battle of the Bands’
competitions where bands could show-
case their talents.
Staehle began to specialize in help-
ing young bands
and solo art-
ists with book-
ing, promotion,
show contracts,
and occasionally
management.
“Gradually I
realized some-
one had to look
out for these
kids,” says
Staehle. “Some
of these promot-
ers and venues
do not have these young people’s best
interests at heart.”
Staehle acts as a sort of ‘band Mom’
for the bands at shows. In addition, she
also acts as the MC and stage manager
and is on hand to make sure everything
goes smoothly.
“The trick about these events is you
have to be very flexible,” says Staehle.
“You have to think quickly on your feet
and be ready to handle things on the
fly.”
She has encountered every kind of
emergency from a band forgetting an
important piece of equipment, to miss-
ing cords for instruments, to missing
band members.
Says Staehle, “If I do my job well, no
one will ever know what went into it.”
Staehle gives the bands advice about
stage presence, tips on promotion, and
information about what they need to do
in order to take their music to the next
level. Some of the bands she has helped
have gone on to open for national acts
and others are now touring.
Staehle is partnering with the
Holly Springs Cultural Center this

coming year to bring six
Band Nights to the local
community. These bands
are comprised of students
from local high schools
and surrounding colleges.
The next event will be this
coming Saturday, Oct. 8.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
with bands playing from 7
until 10 p.m.
“These events not only
provide young bands with
a place to showcase their
talents, but they also pro-
vide a fun and safe envi-
ronment for teens. Plus,
for $5, it is one of the
best deals in town,” says
Staehle.
Says Staehle, “The trick
to Band Nights is to get
young people to step away
from their computers and
YouTube and come out
and listen to some live
music. You can’t replace
the feel of a live show for
experiencing the fun and
energy.”
The most rewarding
part of her job is finding
a band or solo artist with
‘that something special’,
helping them grow as
musicians, and watching
them move on to bigger
and better things.
“When you see certain
bands you just know they
are going someplace,”
says Staehle. “My job is to
make sure they are being
taken care of and not
being taken advantage of.”
For Staehle, it is a labor
of love, her ministry of
sorts.
“I hope we can keep the
local music scene alive.
If someone doesn’t help
these young artists and
encourage them, there
won’t be a lot of original
music out there in the fu-
ture.”

Losing a loved one is never easy, no mat-
ter the age. The sixth annual Caring Hearts
Bereavement Camp tries to help adults
come to terms with their loss. The camp
is completely free and is a one day event.
Throughout the day there will be a variety
of activities such as crafts, group speaking,
and a memorial service. If the weather per-
mits there might also be a dove release.
A central theme of the camp is “Treasur-
ing the Memories in our Hearts”. During
one of the camps activities, each individual
is given a little treasure box, and they are
taken on a nature walk. For some people
this walk is very personal, as they may go
off on their own.
Each person is told to collect a few things
that have some sort of reference to their
life and emotions, such as a live flower or
a fallen leaf. After, they are given the op-
portunity to decorate the box and make the
items they retrieved their own.
“Every year everyone walks away with
the feeling of support and knowing that they
are not alone,” says Bereavement Coordina-
tor Dot Murray.
The camp offers some closure to those in
pain, and encourages them to connect with
others. Wouldn’t it be ideal to have the op-
portunity to move through hard times know-
ing you’re not alone?
All of the camp counselors are volun-
teers. Donations are accepted nationwide
to the Heartland Hospice as well as to the
Caring Hearts Bereavement Camp.
The event will take place at Lake Wheeler
Park in Raleigh, Saturday, Nov. 12 at 8:30
a.m.-2:30 p.m. Caring Hearts is open to the
public.
To register call 919-877-9959. There are
a limited number of spots available, usually
they can accommodate 40 to 50 people.
When someone you love becomes a
memory, the memory becomes a treasure.

A group of homeschool families have
come together to create a Walk to help
a local family – the Willards. On Oct. 22,
there will be a WALK at the NC Museum of
Art in Raleigh to help raise money for this
family’s medical bills and other urgent
needs. You can register to be part of this
WALK while spending a day with your fam-
ily at the museum. Please visit www.walk-
forthewillards.org to learn more about
the Willard family and their struggles. You
can register to walk at this website and/

“It’s easy to criticize from
the outside,” said Margiotta.
“I’ll continue to be a fiscal
hawk.”
Evans agreed that past
school boards didn’t handle
schoolreassignmentsaswell
as they should have but also
was critical of the current
leadership, too.
She said it was the actions
of the board that prompted
her decision to become a
candidate.
“I became concerned with
the divisiveness and lack of
collaboration,” said Evans.
“It’s very disappointing how
unable they are to work to-
gether. I felt it was my duty
to get involved.”
Evans also criticized what
she viewed as the board’s
unwillingness to hold “open-
dialogue” discussions.
“Decisionshavebeenram-
roded through,” said Evans.
“I want to hear what every-
one has to say.”
Evans said she under-
stood why parents were
upset with past school re-
assignments but doesn’t
believe they want to move
in the direction the current
board is headed.
“They have polarized and
embarrassed the commu-
nity,” said Evans. “I don’t
think it is the change people
were asking for.”
Evans said she believed
it was important for a child
“who starts at one school
to finish at the school.” But
she questioned the wisdom
of moving toward a neigh-
borhood school policy that
would create more high-
need schools in the county.
Evans said it was time to
“putpoliticsaside”andbegin
refocusing on education.

hy does Cold
Mountain’s
Charles Fra-
zier’s new
book make me
think about the joys of din-
ing at a popular restaurant
in Carrboro near Chapel
Hill?
Read on, and when I ex-
plain, you will understand
why I think the new book,
“Nightwoods,” is going to
give Frazier a host of new
readers, ones who never
read “Cold Mountain” or
“Thirteen Moons.”
What does his new book
have for these readers that
is other books
lacked?
It is the wrong
question.
“ N i g h t -
woods’s” attrac-
tion, compared
to his earlier
books, will be
that it “lacks”
the number of
pages and words
that filled “Cold
M o u n t a i n ”
and “Thirteen
Moons.”
“Nightwoods”
is Frazier’s gift
to readers who
like their nov-
els to be compact with a
story line that moves along
briskly.
Frazier’s devoted fans
neednotworry.Hehasnot
abandoned them or given
up his skill in delivering
lovely, engaging, descrip-
tive prose or his develop-
ment of richly complex
characters, the qualities
that made reading his first
two novels so rewarding.
He continues to bring
wonderful literary food to
our tables, just in a smaller
portion.
Now, about the restau-
rant. Its name is Glasshal-
full. It features carefully
prepared delicious food,
elegantly served, in very
small, half-sized, portions.
Sometimes eating light is
much more satisfying than
theoverwhelmingportions
we get in other good res-
taurants.
Frazier’s “Nightwoods”
is his literary glass half
full, a smaller portion than
his full size, but equally
delicious. Maybe it is not
exactly a glass half full,”
but rather a smaller glass,
filled to the top.
Another feature of
“Nightwoods” that may
attract new readers is its
setting in the early 1960s,
a time that is not histori-
cal, as in the Civil War or
Cherokee Removal times
of the earlier books. In
the new book there are
plentiful reminders of
our own memories— cars,
telephones, cheerlead-
ers, movies, beauty queen
contests, clear channel
Nashville radio, and James
Brown.
Yes, James Brown! His
music gives comfort to the
lovely, wounded, reclusive
Luce, the book’s central
character, who has lived all
alone as the caretaker of a
deserted mountain resort
hotel.
Listen to Frazier de-
scribe her situation: “At
bedtime, lamps out, the
rest of the big room faded
into darkness, only the
fire and the radio’s tubes
sending a friendly glow up
the nearby log walls. Luce
finally fell asleep every
night listening to WLAC
out of Nashville. Little
Willie John, Howlin’ Wolf,
Maurice Williams, James
Brown. Magic singers pro-
claiming hope and despair
into the dark. Prayers
pitched into the air from
Nashville and caught by
the radio way up here at
the mountain lake to keep
her company.”
What is it about music
and James Brown that
haunts our favorite
60-year-old North Caro-
lina authors? In
Clyde Edger-
ton’s new book,
“The Night
Train,” also set
in the 1960s,
a 17-year-old
white boy in
a strictly seg-
regated small
North Carolina
town loves the
music so much
that he tries to
“become James
Brown.”
Both Frazier
and Edgerton
proudly confess
their own love of 1960s
music.
Back to “Nightwoods”
and Luce. The 1960s Luce
reminded me of the 1860s
Ada and Ruby from “Cold
Mountain.” Luce is beauti-
ful, kind, and lost like the
Charleston-raised Ada.
And Luce is, like Ruby,
mountain-tough, resource-
ful, and stubborn.
Other compelling char-
acters are essential to Fra-
zier’sstoryandthedetours
and sub-plots that he has
carefully constructed. But
thebasicplotistheancient
one, good vs. evil.
The good is represented
by Luce and the two little
children of her murdered
sister. Evil is Bud, the
husband of that sister and
her murderer. In “Night-
woods” Bud’s threatening
presence puts danger to
Luce and the children on
every page, making the
reader wonder whether or
not Frazier will, this time,
let good prevail.
Or even if he will let you
know for sure.

able on line at www.ny-

This week’s (Friday,
Oct. 7, and Sunday, Oct. 9)
guest is, author of “Butter-
fly’s Child.”
“Butterfly’s Child” by
former N.C. State writing
teacher, Angela Davis-
Gardner, is a sequel to
Puccini’s opera. It answers
fictionally the question,
“What ever happened to
Madam Butterfly’s son
after she committed sui-
cide when her American
lover came back to Japan
with his American wife?”
(Oct. 7, 9)
lthough we are
only in the first few
days of October, I
have already begun
thinking about Christmas.
Christmas can be extremely
stressful on the budget.
However, Christmas does
not have to be a budget
buster if you plan wisely.
For those with smaller
children like myself, do
not be afraid to garage sale
shop or consignment shop
for Christmas gifts. I have
a 3-year-old, who adores
Fisher Price Little People
play sets. In the last several
months, I have found some of the older
play sets for a fraction of the cost at
area yard sales, thrift stores and con-
signment sales and stores.
He will be totally thrilled and
I did not kill my bank.
Another way to save money
for the holidays is by making
your own ornaments. Make
memories with children by
making your own decorations
and presents. One of my fa-
vorite decoration ideas is by
covering pine cones with fes-
tive colored glitter. We did
this activity for the first time
last year and my children
loved the activity and it gave
memories to last a life time.
For friends and school
teachers, we also make our
own presents. One of our favorite gifts
to give to neighbors and teachers are
reindeer cookies. It is a simple task
that involves sugar cookies, pretzels
and MMs. It is another great activity
to make memories with your children
and you are not busting the bank.

few years ago, the National
Association of Professional
Organizers designated the
first week of October as Get
OrganizedWeek.Andwhileyoumayhave
misplaced your notification of this event,
it’s nonetheless a good time to see just
how organized you are in the important
areas of your life — such as your finances.
You can organize your finances in two
basic ways: by keeping track of where
your various accounts are located and by
consolidating your assets. Let’s look at
both these areas.
To begin with, you might think it’s no
big deal to keep track of your financial
accounts. After all, no one lets these ac-
counts just slip away, does he? Actually,
you might be surprised: At least $32 bil-
lion, and possibly much more, of “lost”
property (savings, investments, retire-
ment accounts and so on) are in the
custody of state treasurers and other
agencies, according to the National As-
sociation of Unclaimed Property Admin-
istrators.
How do people misplace these funds?
They might move from a town and forget
to close a bank account. Or they might
leave a job and not realize they’ve left be-
hind money in a 401(k). However they do
it, it happens — but you don’t want it to
happen to you.
Fortunately, it’s not hard to keep tabs
on your various accounts — you just need
to make a list. Where do you keep your
checking and savings accounts? Where
are your investments held? Do you have
a retirement plan, such as a 401(k) with
yourcurrentemployer?Howaboutanyre-
tirement plans with former employers? If
you have Individual Retirement Accounts
(IRAs), do you keep them with multiple
providers? By answering these questions,
you can develop a comprehensive list of
what you own and where it’s located. Of
course, it’s a good
idea to update this
list periodically
— at least once a
year — to reflect
any changes in
your ownership.
Knowing what
you have will be
helpful to you in
evaluating your
financial situation
today. But if you
want to help your-
selfmakeprogress
toward your goals
for tomorrow,
you’ll also want to
consider another
organizational technique: consolidating
your assets.
Specifically, if you have some stocks
here, a couple of certificates of deposits
(CDs) there and some IRAs at still an-
other place, you might consider consoli-
dating them with one financial services
provider.Withallyourinvestmentsinone
place, you can possibly reduce the fees
and paperwork associated with maintain-
ing your accounts. And when you eventu-
ally start taking withdrawals from your
IRA and 401(k), you may find it easier
to calculate these required distributions
if they’re coming from just one provider,
rather than multiple sources.
But most importantly, when you
consolidate your investments with one
provider, you’ll find it easier to follow a
single, unified investment strategy. A
qualified financial advisor can look at all
your assets and determine if you’ve got
redundancies in your holdings and if you
need to increase your diversification.
(Keep in mind, though, that diversifica-
tion, by itself, can’t guarantee a profit or
protect against loss.) Furthermore, once
a financial advisor knows your situation,
he or she can recommend strategies that
are appropriate for your objectives, risk
tolerance and time horizon.
Get Organized Week lasts only seven
days. But by using this time to begin orga-
nizing your finances, you could see ben-
efits for years to come.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor,
The School Board election is Tuesday,
Oct. 11, and I would strongly encourage
everyone to vote. Susan Evans is run-
ning against Chair Ron Margiotta and I,
for one, am very tired of receiving flyers
from “Common Sense Matters” that are
at the best negative campaigning and
at the worst filled with guilt by associa-
tion and try to depict Ron as a gangster
and a Tea Party extremist. Neither is
even close to the truth. Examples from
the “Common Sense Matters” flyers are
“stop the Tea Party, protect our schools,
80 million reasons, vote Oct. 11”. Well,
the last part about voting is appropriate.
Ron and the “5-4 majority” have voted ex-
actly what their known agenda was when
they were elected. Hopefully, informed
citizens can see through this, in my opin-
ion, negative propaganda.
Dick Sears
Mayor, Holly Springs
Dear Editor,
In response to Tim Sack’s letter,
“There are citizens who don’t use the cul-
tural center, Hunt Center… doesn’t mean
there isn’t a great demand and use… we
have to look at the growing needs of all
the people of Holly Springs….” I disagree
with the Councilman on the demands of
the few out way the demands of the many.
Yes, more parks and greenways would be
wonderful; however, “the growing needs
of the people” are places to eat, shop,
and spend money in Holly Springs. If the
town would promote commercial growth
of restaurants (not fast food), shops, and
entertainment activities as the people
demanded in the July 2009 survey, Re-
tail Preference Survey, then maybe the
citizens would support the $20 million
referendum.

Fifty-two students from 13 Wake
County Public School System high
schools were among the approxi-
mately 16,000 semifinalists in the
57th annual National Merit Scholar-
ship Program.
The academically talented high
school seniors have an opportu-
nity to continue in the competition
for some 8,300 Merit Scholarship
awards worth $34 million that will
be offered next spring.
About 90 percent of the semi fi-
nalists are expected to attain final-
ists standing and approximately
half of the finalists will be selected
as Merit Scholarship winners.
The WCPSS
semifinalists include:
• APEX High: Henry Boyd, Lind-
sey R. Forte, Ayla J. Goktan, Nathan

To become a finalist, a semifi-
nalist must have an outstanding
academic record throughout high
school, be endorsed and recom-
mended by the school principal
and earn SAT scores that confirm
the student’s earlier qualifying test
performance.
The semifinalist and a school offi-
cial must submit a detailed scholar-
ship application, which includes the
students’ self-descriptive essay and
information about the semifinal-
ist’s participation and leadership
in school and community activities.
More than 1.5 million juniors in
nearly 22,000 high schools entered
the 2012 National Merit Program
by taking the 2010 Preliminary
SAT/National Merit Scholarship
Qualifying Test, which served as an
initial screen of program entrants.
The nationwide pool of semifinal-
ists, which represents less than
one percent of U.S. high school se-
niors, includes the highest scoring
entrants in each state. The number
of semifinalists in a state is propor-
tional to the state’s percentage of
the national total of graduating se-
niors.
Merit Scholarship designees are
selected based on their skills, ac-
complishments and potential for
success in rigorous college studies,
without regard to gender, race, eth-
nic origin or religious preference.

Holly Springs High School medical students are at it
again. Thanks to Sandria Alicea and the Medical Science
teacher, Mr. Davis, at Holly Springs High School who orga-
nized the training, many of the Medical Science II students
received certification as vision screeners for the second
consecutive year. After three hours of vigorous training
and practicing, the students were ready to test the children
at Holly Grove Elementary School. On Sept. 6, sixteen of
the certified students headed to the elementary school.
They were confident in their testing abilities and ready
for the little ones. The length of the vision screening was
cut in half with the help of Katie Adams, Janay Terry,
Sunshine Tsosie, Nikki Beifield, Danielle Holdner, Alexia
Dominguez, Nicole Hernandez, Brooke Sudano, Fernanda
Gayosso, Zinat Zimba, John Alexander, Jasmine Wilson,
Miles Jones, Ruhama Wolle, Brian Clegg, Angel Lopez,
teacher assistants, and two parents. What would have
taken four days was reduced to two and the elementary
students were able to stay on task without having to stop
for vision screening. In a single day, 278 children were
screened in about two hours. “
You will never know how much this is helping us,” said
Dr. Penny, coordinator of vision screening at Holly Grove
Elementary. The medical students were more than happy
to lend a hand and exercise their newly acquired vision
screening abilities.
