Correction We will attempt to clarify an error made in last week’s issue under our “College Circuit” sec tion. Taryn N. Hodges made Rich mond Community College’s dean's list and we published that information; however, we used the wrong photo — that of recent UNC-Pembroke graduate feresa Ann Tiirrecen. Today, we are publishing both articles and the correct photo of Torrecen. Our profound apologies for this error ;ind any embarrassment it may have caused.

Wednesday night Hoke TeC spon sored a technology forum designed to help the community enhance their technology awareness. The two-hour event at East Hoke Middle School was well attended by both adults and children who wanted to become more "technologically savvy.'’ After Carolyn Olivarez, Hoke Schools finance officer who formerly chaired Hoke TeC, presented an over view of the community technology plan, forum participants visited com- putersites in the school's media rooms to do some e-learning. Government, jobs, health, agriculture, baking, bill ing and shopping email sites were visited and explained bv those in the field. Hoke TeC’s name originates from the Hoke County Technology Con sortium which is made up of a group of people who came together to ad dress technology issues and share common goals in attempting to meet the community's technological needs. Current chairman Donna Sullivan asked those participants on Wednes day to become involved. "We need you, your ideas, your opinions, your support" to prepare a technologically literate community, Sullivan said. The forum was sponsored as part of the e-NC Initiative of the Rural Internet Access Authority of North Carolina, but businesses and public service organizations of the commu nity are lending their support. These supporters include Hoke County Schools, which (.opened a free community technology learning cen ter last year. The center is a place for students, parents and other meiiibers of the community to go and use technology and media resources that may not be iivailable to them. It is tilsu an oppni tunity for participants to leceive in struction on computer and teehnol ogy objectives based on the N.C'.Stan Smith gitiiltitilcs Ironi Methodist |.'

You Ve not doing yourself any favors if you *re in the habit of skipping breakfast. Breakfast normalizes blood sugar levels during the morning, increasing your energy and alertness for the day. And if you think skipping breakfast is a good way to diet, think again. By waiting too long to break your overnight fast, you make your body think that it’s starving. This slows your metabolism, which means that calories burn off more slowly. Translation: You don’t get thin by skipping breakfast, and you could get fatter! Your health is precious...guard it well!
