Squabble leads to festival shooting

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

A squabble over a parking space led to the discharging of a firearm during the 27th Annual Slugburger Festival.

Three white males were involved in the incident around 10 p.m. Friday outside of the

festival near the corner of Cruise and Jackson, according to Detective Capt. Ralph Dance. “One of the individuals was punched in the face after being asked to move his car,� said Dance. “He then pulled out a firearm and shot straight up in the air.�

The shooter, whose named

has not been released, faces a misdemeanor charge of discharging a firearm in the city limits, according to Dance.

The firearm used in the altercation was a .22 revolver. “Two of the individuals were taken into custody for questioning and later released pending

more information,� said Dance.

Dance said video of the altercation shows the shooter pointing the gun up in the air and shooting. “For it to be aggravated assault, you have to point the firearm at someone and discharge it,� said the detective captain.

Stonie edges Chestnut for third title

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Matt “Megatoad� Stonie knows how to eat a slugburger.

The professional eater chewed up the field in the World Slugburger Eating Championship on Saturday in downtown Corinth.

Stonie claimed his third straight title in the event by eating 43 slugburgers to down rival Joey “Jaws�

Chestnut by a single burger for a second consecutive year. “They were less crispy this time,� said Stonie. “I have been training year around and so far this has been my best year.� “He found the rhythm quick,� said Chestnut, who downed 42 slugburgers. “The slugburgers are hard to swallow and he got out to a lead that I couldn’t make up.�

Stonie, ranked second in Major League Eating, gained his second win versus Chestnut, the world’s top eater, in the last three months.

He previously downed Chestnut at a gyro-eating contest in May. “I was watching Joey all the time,� said Stonie. “A world record wouldn’t have meant anything unless I beat him.�

Stonie set the previous mark for eating slugburgers in 10 minutes

they wanted to press charges they could do so Monday. “We are still trying to sort it out,� said Dance. “The last few days have just been crazy.�

The city’s purchase of a strip of property for right of way brings the South Parkway and Highway 72 intersection upgrade closer to fruition.

The Board of Aldermen this week approved the purchase of the land alongside South Parkway on the former Golden Rule restaurant property for approximately $43,000. It is needed to accommodate the widening of South Parkway on the north side of the highway.

Matthew Estes of Cook Coggin said the project is now at the stage of getting all of the paperwork finalized with the Mississippi Department of Transportation. The bid process will follow.

Essary concludes career in McNairy

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. — A decade of dedication and service by one veteran director to Arts in McNairy came to an last week when the curtain fell on the smash hit “The Wizard of Oz.�

Bryan Essary will close his career as a director of AiM programs by going out on top with the biggest success in the history of the Selmer theatre-arts company.

The classic “Wizard of Oz� drew three sellouts and was just six seats shy of another sellout in five performances.

Essary helped establish the theatre part of AiM and directed his first

play for them in 2004.

He set a pattern of excellence with the musical “Annie� that began his successful tenure. “In his tenure with Arts in McNairy, Bryan was instrumental in establishing a strong base for a successful theatre program,� said Shawn Pitts, one of the founders of AiM. “He directed more than a dozen successful shows in 10 years with us, but as the chair of the performing arts committee, he built a great committed team of volunteers, mentored young actors and directors. Bryan set a very high bar for excellence in community arts.�

A problem with night

blindness makes it difficult for Essary to drive from his home in Corinth.

The work for a play begins six weeks prior to opening night and rehearsals are held four nights a week.

The long-time director said he knew from the beginning that McNairy County had unreal talent for singing and acting when he put together “Annie� 10 years ago. “McNairy County is blessed with a wealth of talent,� said Essary. “We have seen children grow up through the program that went on to major in theater in college.�

Essary is proud of his role in helping McNairy

County gain a permanent home in 2012 in the Latta Building in downtown Selmer. The state-of-theart venue how hosts four to six plays a year.

Pitts said Essary’s impact on AiM would continue to be felt for a long period of time.

Essary’s love for the theatre will not go away and do not be surprised to see him involved in the Corinth Theatre Arts.

He clearly has a talent for directing plays and many people have been entertained by his efforts over the years.

The former music minister at First Baptist-Selmer is now serving in the same position at Farmington Baptist Church

“It just comes natural to me.

I currently have a mountain of pages in need of typing up.�

es life lessons through the adventures of 17 talking animals. “Each little critter is struggling with a problem,� said Thompson. “By the end of the story, each problem has come to a resolution and leaves the reader with a great message.�

The book cover and inside pages are filled with whimsical illustrations drawn by the author’s niece, Kara Reynolds. “Getting this book published has really fired me up,� said the Chewalla, Tenn. resident. “So much so that I am now doing a puppet skit at the playhouse every Friday.�

The 1963 Kossuth High School graduate credits his daughter as the driving force behind his selfpublishing.

After going through a dry spell, the author said he became discouraged, but was encouraged by his daughter to continue writing and share his talents with others. “I went through a period of not writing at all, but she inspired me to keep at it and turned me on to Xlibris, a self-publishing company,� he said.

While some of his best ideas come to him during the night, Thompson said he can write anytime and typically does so with a pencil or his computer.

My daughter always says that reading my stories are just like sitting down and watching a movie,� said the writer. “I live in each story. For me, it’s like being in a real movie. I love it, it’s great.�

While many struggle

to find the right words, Thompson says he has no shortage of ideas. “It just comes natural to me. All these ideas just pop into my head,� he said. “I’ll jot down words and come up with pages of titles.� “I currently have a mountain of pages in need of typing up,� he added.

Retired from Lowe’s after 17 years, Thompson spends his days telling stories and creating audio recordings.

His genres include, adventure/drama, fantasy, mystery, children’s fiction and more. “I also enjoy writing westerns and religious material,� said Thompson.

The author offered advice for those wishing to get their “foot in the door.� “Write everyday whether it makes good sense or not and get established in a routine,� he said. “Don’t let rejection and discouragement stop you because if you stick with it, you will be successful.�

In addition to writing and doing puppet skits, the former Daily Corinthian custodian enjoys drawing and creating cartoon characters.

He wished to thank his daughter, Lisa Thompson and her mother for their continuous encouragement and support.

Thompson plans to hold book signings once his book becomes available to the public within the next month or so. “Poppy’s Little Friends� will be available by ebook, as well as paperback.

Corinth, Miss.

Obama’s disaster As a defender of the nation’s borders, President Barack Obama is a hell of a pool player.

The president enjoyed a game at a bar in Denver with Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper the other day, without the noir atmosphere of his furtive visits to pool halls with his grandfather as a kid, when he felt “the enticement of darkness and the click of the cue ball, and the Rich jukebox flashing its red and Lowry green lights.”

Obama’s game the other National day was bright and cheery, as Review one would expect of a president who didn’t have any depressing visits to frightened ranchers, overwhelmed border agents or desperate migrants on his future itinerary.

The first rule in a crisis for any executive is put on his windbreaker and boots and get out on the ground. President George W. Bush didn’t do it soon enough after Hurricane Katrina and, politically, could never make up for it, no matter how many times he visited New Orleans subsequently.

Obama’s bizarre resistance to visiting the border on his fundraising swing out West fueled talk of the influx as Obama’s “Katrina moment.”

The Katrina analogy is both over the top and too generous. It is over the top because the border influx isn’t a deadly catastrophe swallowing an American city. It is too generous because Bush didn’t do anything to bring on Hurricane Katrina, whereas Obama’s policies are responsible for the influx of immigrants from the border. It is, in the argot of his administration, a “man-caused disaster.”

According to the Los Angeles Times, the number of immigrants younger than 18 who were deported or turned away from ports of entry declined from 8,143 in 2008 to 1,669 last year.

There were 95 minors deported from the entire interior of the country last year. At the same time, the number of unaccompanied alien children arriving from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras exploded from less than 4,000 several years ago to 40,000 since last October.

The White House brushes off criticism that Obama is avoiding the border as mere “optics,” in contrast to its highly substantive focus. But it is still not taking the crisis seriously.

In a letter to Texas Gov. Rick Perry, White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett downgraded the erstwhile “humanitarian crisis” on the border (the president’s words) to an “urgent humanitarian situation.” When pressed on the shift in verbiage, ever-judicious White House press secretary Josh Earnest explained that it is both a crisis and a situation.

Yes, it’s that bad.

The nearly $4 billion the president is requesting for the border is not fundamentally about enforcement that will reverse and end the tide, but about managing the influx.

A devastating critique of the request by the Center for Immigration Studies notes that about half of the money goes to the Department of Health and Human Services “for acquisition, construction, improvement, repair, operation, and maintenance of real property and facilities.”

The enforcement portion of the request, according to CIS, “is not truly geared toward removal,” but instead to “recouping costs for temporary detention and subsequent transporting of aliens.”

The administration’s reaction to the crisis is just another in a long series of acts of bad faith on immigration.

It is asking Congress for more money for its priorities at the same time the president is promising, in effect, to suspend yet more immigration laws in response to the failure of “comprehensive immigration reform.”

Republicans in Congress should crumple up the president’s border request in a ball and start over, with an emphasis on holding migrants near the border and working through their cases quickly to address the short-term crisis, and provisions for interior enforcement to address illegal immigration more broadly.

Of course, even if such a bill were to pass and to be signed into law, that’d be no guarantee that the president of the United States would enforce it.

That speaks to an entirely different mancaused disaster.

Prayer for today My Father, I pray that I may have wise judgment and use discretion in the choice of my work. May I remember that only that is genuine which is received and used for thee.

Amen.

A verse to share Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.”

— Psalms 29:2

Chicago: A town that won’t let you down?

Frank Sinatra’s song about Chicago, “My Kind of Town,” “a the town that won’t let you down,” seems dated in light of last weekend’s shooting spree that left 16 dead and dozens wounded in 53 separate incidents. According to the Chicago Tribune, “The victims were among 82 people shot between Thursday afternoon and early Monday.

Chicago wasn’t alone in the Independence Day violence. New York City and Detroit combined for 10 dead in 46 shootings, but let’s stick with Chicago where violence in mainly poor African-American and Hispanic neighborhoods has become a way of death.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel issued the familiar statement that such violence is “simply unacceptable.” He blames parents (absent fathers would be more to the point) and insufficient gun laws (of which Chicago has some of the toughest in the nation). Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy suggested that stiffer penalties for gun crimes might reduce the violence. So the way to fight criminals who have no respect for life or law is to pass more laws they are sure to violate?

W h a t would the great civil rights leaders of the past think of their youth today?

Cal Did they Thomas sacrifice their time, liberty Columnist and, in some cases, their lives so that those who came after them could murder each other in the streets? Would they tell them they should be ashamed? Do these depraved killers even know the meaning of shame?

Consider some of their words, which are more profound than those of a Chicago politician, or a president.

“He who lives outside the law is a slave. The free man is the man who lives within the law, whether that law be the physical or the divine.”

— Booker T. Washington.

“Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power.

We have guided missiles and misguided men.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “A little less complaint and whining, and a little more dogged work and manly striving, would do us more credit than a thousand civil rights bills.” — W.E.B. Du Bois

In each of these quotes there is an appeal to something beyond politics, government and programs. It is an appeal to the spirit, the part in each of us that instructs, motivates and controls.

On Fox News Monday night, Juan Williams faulted the “black church” for not doing more to rescue AfricanAmericans from cycles of violence and poverty. While he didn’t make the connection, I will. Too many “reverends” have traded eternal truths for temporal power.

While not ignoring slavery and discrimination, most once preached messages about righteousness, sin and redemption, which brought changes in behavior. Too many modern “reverends” have made their bed with the Democratic Party, which has delivered their people from nothing, and has mostly kept the poor mired not just in economic poverty, but a poverty of spirit.

There may be no answer for this generation of angry, violent youth, but there may be an answer for younger children. It begins with school choice so children in failing schools can get the kind of education that is their only ticket out of poverty. Putting

men back in their families where they would be married to the mothers of their children would also produce positive cultural benefits, but that is an area where government has less influence than the church.

Chicago is not alone in its problems with urban violence. The American Thinker magazine chronicled the chaos that swept many cities last Memorial Day weekend, from Cincinnati, to Miami Beach (where 300,000 people, mostly black, gathered for Urban Beach Week, an annual hip-hop festival, that brought “violence, robbery, shootings, carjackings, vandalism, mayhem, noise and trash”).

The fault for this lies in many places. The solution is not external, but internal.

No one can respect another person’s life and property until he respects himself.

And that respect comes only through a spiritual awakening, which no politician has the power to create.

Energy costs key to state’s success

BY WYATT EMMERICH The Northside Sun

The United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) keeps track of electricity costs. Their April statistics show that Mississippi homeowners paid 11.87 cents per kilowatt hour for electricity. This is lower than the U.S. average of 12.31.

When commercial and industrial is included, Mississippi averaged 9.06 compared to the national average of 9.67.

Mississippi’s 11.87 is 4.8 percent higher than the 11.33 average of eight southern states.

The New England states have by far the most expensive electricity at 18.29 cents per kilowatt. The western states have the cheapest at 9.80 thanks to inexpensive hydroelectric power from dams.

Energy prices keep going up. In 2004, the U.S. average was 8.95. Today it is 12.31. That’s a 38 percent increase in 10 years.

In Mississippi, we have three main electricity providers. Number one is Entergy Mississippi, which has 440,000 meters in 45 counties.

Number two is Mississippi Power, of Kemper power plant fame, which supplies 188,000 meters in the southeast region of Mississippi.

The rest of Mississippi, 800,000 meters, is supplied by cooperatives, many of which are associated with the Tennessee Valley Au-

thority (TVA).

Entergy and Mississippi Power are monopolies regulated by the Mississippi Public Service Commission (PSC). The cooperatives are not regulated since they are owned by the customers, who presumably can look after their own interests.

The latest rate EIA data for each utility company is for the year 2012. Entergy charged residential customers 8.17 cents per kilowatt.

Mississippi Power charged customers 11.09.

Out of the 46 Mississippi power co-ops, the 10 lowest cooperatives were Webster Electric Coop, 8.26 cents; Public Service Commission of Yazoo, 8.71; Clarksdale Public Utilities, 8.91; City of Tupelo, 9.09; Prentiss County Electric Power Association, 9.23; City of Columbus, 9.55; Greenwood Utilities, 9.75; City of Albany, 9.85; North Central Mississippi EPA, 9.89; Louisville Electric System, 9.92.

The 10 most expensive are Yazoo Valley Electric Power Association, 13.62; Twin County Electric Power Association, 13.57; Pearl River Valley Electric Power Association, 12.50; Magnolia Electric Power Association, 12.38; Southern Pine Electric Power Association, 12.14; East Mississippi Electric Power Association, 12.09; Coast Electric Power Association, 11.95; Southwest Mississippi EPA, 11.94; Dixie Electric Power Association, 11.74; and Singing River Electric Power Asso-

ciation, 11.44.

You can view a full listing of all 46 Mississippi electricity providers at http://www. eia.gov/electricity/sales_ revenue_price/pdf/table6. pdf.

It is important to note that Entergy is the lowest electricity provider of all 46 Mississippi providers. So when Entergy President Haley Fisackerly called to set up a meeting with me, he was already on my good side.

Entergy Mississippi is a subsidiary of Entergy Inc., which provides electricity to 2.8 million meters in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas.

A decade ago, Entergy centralized operations and made their Mississippi executives more public relations people than operating executives. But the company reversed course and has now given more operating authority back to the Mississippi executives.

Haley had good reason to meet with me. Utility companies are under a lot of scrutiny since the Mississippi Power Kemper debacle and Entergy is seeking approval for a $6.28 monthly increase per 1000 kilowatts, which is about a month’s worth for an average household.

Even after the increase, Entergy would still be the third lowest utility provider in the state and far lower than the second biggest provider, Mississippi Power.

Fisackerly said the increase is necessary because of a variety of infrastructure

investments.

Entergy has also become part of MISO, a wholesale electricity buying cooperative that covers 15 states and serves 42 million people.

That means Entergy customers have access to the least expensive hydro, coal, gas, oil, wind or nuclear from dozens of sources. MISO buys the least expensive energy it can from its participating utility companies.

Entergy must make its case to the PSC, which I hope is being more careful in its scrutiny following the Kemper mess.

Fisackerly says Entergy’s plan for growth is to keep rates lower, which will attract industrial and residential growth. Indeed, Entergy Mississippi, with its high percentage of natural gas and nuclear, has some of the lowest rates in the nation.

Now if we could just get Entergy to support progressive solar panel rules like there are in Louisiana.

The multi-billion dollar question is why Mississippi Power rates are 36 percent higher than Entergy’s. And that doesn’t include the recent rate increases caused by Kemper. When the EIA compiles those statistics, the difference will be even greater.

The discrepancy wasn’t caused by Katrina — the feds picked up that bill. If the PSC staff wants to make up for their Kemper debacle, they can start by figuring out why two utility companies in the same state have such a huge difference in rates.

Chairman: Border request ‘too much’ WASHINGTON — A key Republican said Friday that President Barack Obama’s multibillion-dollar emergency request for the border is too big to get through the House, as a growing number of Democrats rejected policy changes Republicans are demanding as their price for approving any money.

The developments indicated that Obama faces an uphill climb as he pushes Congress to approve $3.7 billion to deal with tens of thousands of unaccompanied kids who’ve been arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border from poor and increasingly violent Central American nations. And they suggested that even as the children keep coming, any final resolution is likely weeks away on Capitol Hill.

As House members gathered Friday morning to finish up legislative business for the week, Rep. Hal Rogers of Kentucky, chairman of the Appropriations Committee, which controls spending, told reporters: “It’s too much money. We don’t need it.�

Lower price sought for vets’ care bill WASHINGTON — Stung by sticker shock, members of Congress are scrambling to lower the cost of a bill to fix veterans’ health care amid a growing uproar over long waits for appointments and falsification of records to cover up the delays at Veterans Affairs hospitals.

At the same time, deficit hawks fear that let-

ting veterans turn more to providers outside the VA for health care could cost far more if Congress, under pressure from powerful veterans groups, decides to renew that program rather than let it expire in two years.

Lawmakers in both parties agree on the need to reform the Veterans Affairs Department’s health care network — the largest in the country — following reports of veterans dying while awaiting appointments at VA hospitals or clinics. The resulting election-year firestorm forced VA Secretary Eric Shinseki to resign in May. A halfdozen other VA officials have resigned or retired since then.

Morgan sues over crash that killed 1 TRENTON, N.J. — Tracy Morgan has sued Wal-Mart over last month’s highway crash that seriously injured him and killed a fellow comedian.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in New Jersey, claims Wal-Mart was negligent when a driver of one of its tractortrailers rammed into Morgan’s limousine van.

The complaint claims the retail giant should have known the driver had been awake for over 24 hours, and that his commute of 700 miles from his home in Georgia to work in Delaware was “unreasonable.� It also alleges the driver fell asleep at the wheel. “As a result of WalMart’s gross, reckless, willful, wanton, and intentional conduct, it should be appropriately punished with the impo-

sition of punitive damages,� according to the complaint.

The June 7 wreck on the New Jersey Turnpike killed 62-year-old comedian James McNair, who went by the name Jimmy Mack. Comedian Ardley Fuqua and Jeffrey and Krista Millea, who were passengers in the limo, are also named as plaintiffs.

Morgan, the former “Saturday Night Live� and “30 Rock� star, suffered a broken leg and broken ribs in the crash and is currently in a rehabilitation center. Fuqua is recovering from crash-related injuries.

Last of Ramones band dies at 65 Tommy Ramone, a co-founder of the seminal punk band the Ramones and the last surviving member of the original group, has died, a business associate said Saturday.

Dave Frey, who works for Ramones Productions and Silent Partner Management, confirmed that Ramone died on Friday. Frey didn’t have additional details. Ramone was 65.

Tommy Ramone, a drummer, co-founded the Ramones in 1974 in New York along with singer Joey Ramone, bassist Dee Dee Ramone and guitarist Johnny Ramone. All four band members had different last names, but took the common name Ramone.

The band influenced a generation of rockers, and their hit songs “I Wanna Be Sedated,� and “Blitzkrieg Bop,� among others, earned them an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.

State to extradite shooting suspect NEW ORLEANS — The state of Mississippi has agreed to extradite a suspect in the gunfight that killed one person and injured nine others last month in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

Trung T. Le of Belle Chasse, Louisiana, faces a charge of first-degree murder and nine counts of attempted first-degree murder following the June 29 shooting.

The 20-year-old Le has been held in a Gulfport, Mississippi, jail since being arrested on July 4 by New Orleans detectives and the U.S. Marshals Service. He had refused to sign a waiver of extradition, but Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal signed what is called a governor’s warrant Thursday, which overrides an inmate’s refusal to be taken to another jurisdiction to face criminal charges.

County toughens rules for pit bulls VAIDEN — Pit bull owners in Carroll County may keep their dogs, but they will have to obey stricter regulations.

The Greenwood Commonwealth reports a new ordinance will take effect Aug. 9 that will not allow pit bulls to be chained outdoors or run loose in yards.

The ordinance was approved in a 3-2 vote this week by supervisors.

The ordinance requires the dogs to be securely confined indoors or, if outdoors, kept in steel cages of a certain size on concrete foundations.

A pit bull must be muzzled when out on a leash and anyone walking the dog must be at least 21 years old.

Owners must carry liability insurance and must have their dogs spayed or neutered.

August vote set on school bond issue COLUMBUS — The Lowndes County School District will put a $47 million bond issue before voters in August.

Voting will be people who live outside the Columbus school district.

WCBI-TV in Columbus reports the county school board voted Friday to have the election on Aug. 26.

Superintendent Lynn Wright says $20 million is planned for a new New Hope High School, $10 million for centralized career technical center, major athletic and school upgrades at all three campuses, and computers for every student during the next two years.

Wright says the careertechnical center will combine scattered programs at three different campuses into one high-tech center.

Gibson: VA spends more to speed care JACKSON — Acting U.S. Veterans Affairs Secretary Sloan Gibson says that veterans’ health care is moving in the right direction in Jackson and nationwide.

Gibson visited the G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery VA Medical Center in Jackson Friday. He met with employees, veterans’ groups and reporters.

He says the VA is sending an additional $4 million to Jackson to speed care. He says the hospital is hiring eight people to coordinate care outside the VA system for veterans.

The Jackson hospital has faced allegations of

improper patient care.

Gibson is visiting VA hospitals nationwide, trying to rebuild trust after a scandal over waiting times.

Board wants to add tennis court at park EUDORA — A DeSoto County parks board is asking the Board of Supervisors to put a tennis court at Eudora Community Park.

Supervisor Lee Caldwell says the Eudora park already has a busy playground and ball field.

The Commercial Appeal reports DeSoto Recreational District Commission member Wayne Spell recommended this week a master plan that includes one tennis court with options for more, and a pavilion with dressing areas and restroom facilities.

The supervisors are expected to consider the proposal July 21.

Officials say a tennis court will cost $20,000 to $25,000.

U.S. appeals trial for ex-BP engineer NEW ORLEANS — Federal prosecutors are appealing a judge’s decision to grant a new trial to a former BP engineer convicted of obstructing justice in an investigation of the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

The notice of appeal in the case of Kurt Mix was filed Friday in U.S. District Court, where Mix was tried, and at the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Prosecutors accused Mix of deliberately deleting text messages to and from a supervisor and a BP contractor about the amount of oil flowing from BP’s Macondo well after the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion.

James’ return could conflict with GOP plan Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Celebrations aside, LeBron James’ decision to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers of the NBA could complicate the Republican Party’s plan to nominate its presidential contender on Lake Erie’s shores in 2016.

If James leads his team into post-season play then, the GOP could find its preferred June 28 start date for the convention impossible because of the site conflict. Convention planners typically take weeks to customize the space with lights, seats and the traditional balloon drop from the rafters — impossible tasks if the Cavaliers go into post-season play.

That leaves Republicans looking at their backup date of July 18, still earlier than parties typically nominate their presidential hopeful in recent years, but later than RNC chief Reince Priebus preferred.

“All options remain on the table as we’re still very early on in the negotiation process,” RNC spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski said. “We’re excited about Cleveland, and LeBron’s return is further evidence that it’s a city on the rise.”

Priebus insisted his

party’s convention be scheduled for early summer 2016, roughly two months sooner than has become the norm.

That would give the GOP’s next presidential nominee quicker access to tens of millions of dollars in general election cash.

“The candidate can be broke, but they’re not able to raise general election money until the convention is held,” Priebus said last week.

But James’ return to the Cavaliers from the Miami Heat could complicate that timeline and perhaps Republican efforts to win the White House. Teams with James have made it to the league finals in five of the last eight seasons, and his move to Cleveland is unlikely to reverse that trend.

Cleveland on Tuesday won the unanimous backing of a RNC panel, all but guaranteeing the GOP’s 2016 presidential pick will accept the party’s nomination in perennially hard-fought Ohio. RNC lawyers are now in negotiations with Cleveland’s organizing committee over the exact terms of the bid, including how many weeks of early and exclusive access Republicans can expect in the Cavaliers’ arena.

How much are you trying to carry?

You wouldn’t be able to lift a 55 gallon drum filled with water. Although you could easily pick up a cleaning bucket filled with water, you wouldn’t to Bryan want Golden hold it for a long time.

Dare to Live If you tried, Without Limits it would feel as if it were getting heavier rather quickly.

Holding a cup filled with water is a cinch.

Anyone can do it. But how long can you hold it for?

The longer it’s held, the

heavier it seems. At some point in time, you would need to put it down.

Just as a seemingly light object becomes heavier the longer it’s held, so do the burdens you carry around with you on a constant basis. An issue that initially appears minor grows in significance the longer you hold onto it.

The weight increases steadily as you clutch onto numerous concerns. You become bogged down even faster with the cumulative mass of your collected burdens. Your stress level rises while your energy and enthusiasm drops.

Because the progression is gradual, it’s not readily

noticeable until it starts to become overwhelming.

Every time you pick up a minor burden it appears to be no big deal. It gets added to your load without much thought. Since the mental weight increases gradually, you adjust to it and incrementally adjust to the growing load.

Each issue alone may be relatively insignificant.

Even though you may not be consciously aware of its presence, you are still affected subconsciously.

Since the weight you are carrying rises so gradually, you accept the increasing burden as normal and tolerable.

As such, you don’t readily perceive the incremental additions to your stress level. Although you may feel anxious, more irritable, less energetic, and less patient, there is no one obvious culprit you can identify. This fact further compounds your frustration.

Over time, you forget exactly why you are carrying many of the burdens.

The details fade, leaving behind only emotions or bad feelings. You become weighed down by accumulated mental debris that is no longer identifiable.

Worry drains your energy without accomplishing a thing. Worry doesn’t help you in any way.

There is not one good reason to accumulate mental issues. It’s a bad habit that needs to be corrected as soon as possible.

In order to accomplish this, you must change your approach.

Let’s consider an alternative scenario. Each time you pick up a small burden you let it go rather than carrying it.

It’s that simple. With this approach your burden never grows. This works because there’s no point dragging problems around with you.

Here’s how you deal with new issues. For each, ask yourself the following questions: Does this really matter? If not, let it go. Is this worth my energy? If not, let it go. Do I have any control over the issue? If not, let it go. If yes, take the appropriate action and then let it go.

Also, stop worrying.

It’s OK to be concerned and take action when and where appropriate.

When you let your burdens drop, it’s easier to release the accompanying worries as well. Constant worrying is deleterious to your mental and physical wellbeing. Furthermore, it causes you to hang onto those very things you should be letting go of.

Stay vigilant. Be aware of what you are picking up. It’s too easy to revert back to your old pattern.

As you empty your mental load you’ll feel lighter.

You will quickly realize how pointless it is to pick things up in the first place.

MISSOURI VALLEY, Iowa — A new fruit that research says packs more antioxidants than popular “superfoods” like blueberries, acai berries and goji berries is establishing itself in the aisles of mainstream grocery stores, showing up in everything from juices to powdered supplements to baby food.

Its rise from being a novelty item at farmers markets into a multimillion-dollar U.S. industry even includes a name

change, from the common chokeberry — so named centuries ago by European settlers who found the tart, astringent berry more pretty than palatable — to the aronia berry, derived from its genus, Aronia melanocarpa.

The native North American berry was introduced in Russia and eastern Europe in the early 20th century and has been cultivated there for juices and wines. Now, farmers throughout the upper Midwest are planting the shrubs by the thousands every year. But the in-

dustry’s roots in the U.S. can be traced to Sawmill Hollow Family Farm in the Loess Hills of western Iowa, where most in the industry believe the first bushes were planted for commercial cultivation in the U.S. Andrew Pittz, 28, is the driving force behind the aronia berry’s emergence.

His family was looking for a crop they could cultivate on the hilly, silt-heavy soil near the Missouri River, and in 1997, Pittz’s parents planted some 200 bushes. The bush grows well in the Midwest, has few pests and doesn’t have to be replanted every year.

The Pittz family was successful: Sawmill Hollow products now are sold in about half of HyVee’s 237 stores, and in all of Whole Foods’ 45 Midwest-region stores, according to spokeswomen for the chains. Rather than keep the berry and its economic potential under wraps, Pittz and his family have been spreading word far and wide — especially throughout Iowa.

The farm holds an annual field day that draws thousands in September, and Pittz planted bushes in all 99 Iowa counties last year. Even Iowa State University is helping promote the berry as a valueadded crop and a good way to diversify farm income, offering grants to help people get started.

“We want the aronia berry to be to Iowa’s Heartland what the peach is to Georgia.” Pittz said.

His family also has taught others how to plant, grow and market the almost black-purple, pea-sized berries. They even share best practices for pruning the bushes for maximum yield, which they developed over nearly 18 years of trial and error. A mature bush at four to five years can produce up to 20 pounds.

Consumers are taking notice of the potential health benefits, said Stacey Loftus, Hy-Vee’s health and wellness supervisor. Research published last year in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry says aronia’s oxygen radical absorbance capacity — a standard measurement of antioxidant strength — shows the berry has one of the highest values ever recorded for a fruit.

“I don’t think this is a passing fad,” she said.

Antioxidants help protect cells from damage, although there are questions in the medical

field as to what role antioxidants play in helping prevent human disease. Federal regulators have, in recent years, targeted companies that have made unsubstantiated health claims about antioxidant-containing products. Last year, the Federal Trade Commission upheld a judge’s decision that POM Wonderful made deceptive claims that its pomegranate products could treat or prevent heart disease, prostate cancer and other illnesses. The FTC’s action is pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

More than 440 new products containing aronia — mostly in juices, wines and other drinks — have been introduced worldwide in the last five years; about 60 of those are in the United States, according to the 2013 University of NebraskaLincoln Food Processing Center’s Product Traffic Report, supported by the U.S. Agriculture Department to track new food products.

Aside from Sawmill Hollow products, widely distributed mainstream brands have jumped on board, such as Old Orchard juices and Beechnut baby foods, which introduced an apple and aronia berries puree this year.

The first aronia cooperative — the North America Aronia Cooperative, based in Omaha, Nebraska — was formed earlier this year with members from 10 Midwestern and Great Plains states. Group president Colleen Nipp says the co-op is capable of producing up to 20 million pounds of fruit a year and estimates the current economic impact is about $85 million, “which includes plant sales, berry sales, processing charges, harvesting equipment, growing supplies, irrigation equipment and the sale of finished aronia products.”

But with the industry is in its infancy, it’s difficult to provide overall yearly production numbers or even a common price per pound. Midwest Aronia Association president Melissa Ehrman Johnson says her group, which has members in 12 states and Ontario, Canada, has farmers fetching anywhere from 50 cents per pound to $7.50 a pound.

Johnson and her husband got into business in 2009, planting about 300 bushes on their 10-acre homestead in southwest Iowa farm.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian The Daily Corinthian family of quality magazines continues with the presentation of Crossroads Magazine Lifestyles Plus edition on Aug. 2 and Crossroads Magazine Homes on Aug. 30.

Husband’s cash management has put marriage in the red DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married for 19 years.

We have had our ups and downs, but the last few months have been hell.

My husAbigail band lies Van Buren about having paid bills. When Dear Abby I ask, “Have you paid the rent?” I mean “IN FULL,” not a partial payment.

We have now been evicted for nonpayment of rent and are living in a hotel.

Utilities have been cut off because of his partial payments and his lying about their having been paid in full, and I’m tired of it.

It’s not just the two of us who have been affected because of his mismanagement of money, but also our two children who are caught up in this mess.

I’m not one of those wives who sit around not knowing what’s going on with the finances.

I have bills I pay for the house, too, and after they are paid I give him money to pay other bills.

I am sick and tired, Abby, and I want to divorce him.

What other choice do I have?

The “for richer or poorer” thing is

no longer working for me.

How much should a person tolerate before walking away from marriage? — HAD ENOUGH IN TENNESSEE DEAR HAD ENOUGH: You say this has been going on for a few months. Where is the money going that isn’t being spent on bills? You say you give your husband money.

Is he bringing in any, or is he jobless?

Before you decide to walk away, you need to understand why it is that your husband has been lying to you, particularly if this is recent behavior.

If you are better at handling money than he is, then you should be handling the finances and paying all of the bills.

That would be a solution to your money troubles.

But reading between the lines of your letter, it appears there may be a lot more going on between you and your husband than you have disclosed.

And if that’s the case, I’d recommend marriage counseling before I’d recommend divorce.

DEAR ABBY: When I was a child, my mother always told me to close the bathroom door after using the toilet so as not to allow any offensive odors to escape.

I’m an adult now, have a nice home and entertain often. I am dismayed that most of my guests leave the bathroom door

wide open after each use. It is particularly offensive because of the close proximity of the powder room to the dining room.

Like the habit of men forgetting to put the toilet seat down, I find this “open door” policy both disgusting and inexcusable.

Would you kindly advise whether my mother was correct, or am I being too sensitive?

I’ll post your answer on the door of my guest bathroom for my guests to see. — GROSSED OUT, CARMEL VALLEY, CALIF. DEAR GROSSED OUT: While it would be hard to argue in favor of offensive fumes wafting into a hallway, not everyone feels as strongly as you and your mother do on this subject.

Your guests may be leaving the door open so other guests will know the bathroom is unoccupied.

Because you prefer for it to be shut at all times, rather than post a letter from me on the door, consider installing an automatic spring closer on it, or post a small sign that reads, “Please Shut Door When Leaving.”

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Without a written plan, your intentions, however good they may be, will not be enough to get to the end result you desire. So write it down and carry it with you. Don’t let your written plan slip from view today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Whatever the things are that make you feel in control, make sure you have them today. If not, the interesting chaos around is sure to lead you away from what you wanted to do.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Sometimes the fast and complete change is the one that you respond to best, but today you’ll have more success with a gentle and workable plan. Small improvements will add up to big differences.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Good manners will be even more important than good sense today. You will be amazed at what comes of an appropriate and cheerful interaction -- much more

than the situation had promised.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Someone will seek your approval. This is generally a turnoff for you, as you prefer decisive, independent types. However, you’ll also find the dynamic flattering and very telling, too.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

While standing straight, bending backward and molding yourself to assist or support another, your spine will send a message to the world about how far you’re willing to go to help.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your ideas are good, and you’ll be most persuasive as you sell them.

You constantly think of what’s in it for the other person and highlight all the benefits you can think of. In the end, you’ll get what you want.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You can’t polish a jewel without friction. So when life rubs you the wrong way, don’t run. Lean into it.

You’ll learn from the obstacles you must overcome today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Gentle changes are made over time. Revolutionary changes are made forcibly in an instant.

When you’re not sure which kind of change would be best, don’t make a change at all.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Strategic thinking will be necessary to carry out the demands of the day. Lay the groundwork for your plans without tipping your hand. The rest of them don’t need to know what you’re up to just yet.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Do not seek support for what you want to do. No one will understand until you have already created the dynamic you seek.

There is power in action. Do the deed and the support will come later.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You are loved. You lose touch with this fact too often and forget about the many people in your life who need and celebrate you.

Pictures will be a reminder. Take a trip down memory lane.

Grizzlies take a shot with signing of Carter The Associated Press

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Memphis Grizzlies signed Vince Carter on Saturday, looking to bolster their outside shooting with an eighttime All-Star who spent last season as a Dallas Mavericks reserve.

The 37-year-old guard agreed to a multiyear contract. Financial terms were not disclosed.

The Grizzlies lacked 3-point threats last season.

The 6-foot-6 Carter gives the Grizzlies a replacement for

free agent Mike Miller, who said on Twitter on Friday night he was “just informed the Grizz are going in another direction.”

Carter averaged 11.9 points in 81 games, all off the bench, last season for Dallas. He has averaged 20.2 points over his 16-year career. He averaged at least 20 points for 10 straight seasons from 1999-09.

Memphis averaged 4.9 3-pointers a game during the regular season, low in the NBA. The 34-year-old Miller shot 45.5 percent from

3-point range and averaged 7.3 points last season as one of the Grizzlies’ top outside threats.

Carter moved into 25th place on the NBA’s career scoring list last season, and the player once known best as a dunker is now seventh all-time in 3-pointers made (1,809). His 146 3-pointers last season were the most of any NBA player off the bench.

In Dallas’ first-round playoff loss to eventual champion San Antonio, Carter shot 15

of 31 from beyond the arc and made a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to give Dallas a 109-108 victory in the third game of the series.

Carter has averaged 4.9 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 1,148 career regular-season games with Toronto, the Nets, Orlando, Phoenix and Dallas. He averaged 24.4 minutes a game last season.

He ranks eighth in career 3-point attempts (4,788), 20th in field-goal attempts (19,045) and 31st in minutes (39,240).

Minor homers, Braves beat Cubs

BY SARAH TROTTO Associated Press

CHICAGO — Chris Johnson and the Atlanta Braves capitalized on a day when the ball was flying at Wrigley Field.

And Mike Minor toughed it out on a day when it was tough to pitch.

Johnson homered twice and Minor hit his second career home run, leading the Atlanta Braves over the Chicago Cubs 11-6 on Saturday.

Johnson and Justin Upton each drove in four runs for the Braves.

Johnson and Minor homered and Upton hit a threerun double as Atlanta scored six times in the fourth inning

for a 9-3 lead.

“It’s one of those days at Wrigley when you get the ball up in the air and the ball keeps traveling,” Johnson said. “Mike battled though.

It’s a tough place to pitch on days like this. He battled and kept us in the game. We were able to get enough.

Minor (3-5) allowed six runs and 11 hits in six innings, improving to 6-0 in his career against the Cubs.

The Braves won for the second time in seven games.

They hit no home runs in their previous six games and one in their last 12 games.

Upton and Justin Heyward had RBI singles in the ninth for Atlanta.

David Carpenter pitched two innings for his third save.

“Today is one of those days we need all the offense we can get because the wind was blowing out, typical Wrigley Field wind blowing out,” Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “We never felt comfortable.”

Chris Coghlan hit two doubles and drove in three runs for the Cubs, who have lost seven of nine.

Edwin Jackson (5-10) lasted just 3 2-3 innings after giving nine runs, seven hits and three home runs.

“It’s just one of those embarrassing, horrendous games,” Jackson said. “Flat out, there’s no other way to

put it. Your team does a great job and battles back, and you continually give up the lead.

It’s pretty much unacceptable.”

The Cubs scored three runs in the fifth to cut the lead to 9-6. One run scored on a passed ball before Coghlan hit a two-run double.

Johnson’s second homer of the day and fifth of the season was a two-run shot and made it 5-3 in the fourth.

Johnson’s third career multihomer game was his first since 2012.

“I’m not trying to hit home runs,” Johnson said.

“I got the first one pretty good. The second one I think it was just a line drive.”

Netherlands beats host Brazil to finish 3rd

BY TALES AZZONI AP Sports Writer

BRASILIA, Brazil — When it was all over, it was the Netherlands receiving a standing ovation from the Brazilian crowd. Brazil walked off the field to boos, after another demoralizing loss to end its home World Cup. The Netherlands’ remarkable campaign ended on a high note after Robin van Persie and Daley Blind scored early goals to help give the team a 3-0 win over Brazil in the third-place game on Saturday.

“We can look back at a very successful tournament,” Dutch coach Louis Van Gaal said. “I’m proud of my play-

ers.”

The Netherlands finishes a World Cup unbeaten in regular play for the first time, having lost to Argentina on penalties in the semifinals. After finishing runner-up in 2010, the third place is the best position for the Dutch squad since it lost the final in 1974 and 1978.

The Brazilian fans loudly greeted the Dutch players after they received the thirdplace medals, applauding on their feet.

“I would like to thank all people in Brazil for their great support,” Arjen Robben said.

“For us it was the best way to end this tournament. We fully deserved third place the

way we played. It’s a very big achievement.”

The loss added to Brazil’s frustration at the home tournament following the disastrous 7-1 defeat to Germany.

After the final whistle, the team was loudly booed by the nearly 70,000 fans that attended the match at the National Stadium in Brasilia.

Many had already left even before the late third goal by the Dutch. It’s the first time since 1940 that Brazil lost two consecutive competitive games on home soil.

“It’s a terrible feeling, I don’t know what to say,” Oscar said. “After a huge loss to Germany, today we tried our best from the beginning to

win third place but it wasn’t our day. We have to see what went wrong so we can improve for the future.”

Brazil conceding 14 goals in the tournament, the most ever for the team. The previous worst had been 11 goals in the 1938 World Cup. Now it conceded 10 in its last two games.

“It was supposed to be an even match but after the early goal things started going their way,” Scolari said. “I don’t think we played that bad. The players fought hard from the start. They created chances, so it’s difficult to lose 3-0.

But they deserve all the credit in the end, they reached the semifinals.”

Harman grabs lead in John Deere Classic

BY TIM CRONIN Associated Press

SILVIS, Ill. — Brian Harman is going to play in the final pairing of a PGA Tour stop for the first time. His playing partner is one accomplished part-timer.

Harman had two eagles in a 6-under 65 on Saturday that gave him a one-stroke lead after three rounds of the John Deere Classic.

Harman’s solid performance got him to 17-under 196 at TPC Deere Run. His partner on Sunday will

be three-time Deere winner Steve Stricker, who is all alone in second, one stroke better than Scott Brown.

“I pay attention to what Steve’s doing but don’t base my game on his,” said Harman, who was grouped with Stricker and Johnson Wagner in the third round. “He’s had a lot of success here.”

Stricker, who shot a 7-under 64 for a three-round total of 197, is 116 under par in his last 23 rounds at TPC Deere Run, including victories in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Brown

is third after a 10-under 61, matching the best round on the PGA Tour in 2014.

Second round co-leaders Zach Johnson and William McGirt are at 199, along with Tim Clark and Jerry Kelly.

Two years ago, Harman was paired with eventual winner Johnson, though not in the final twosome.

“I watched Zach win this golf tournament, and learned a lot,” Harman said.

Stricker, making his ninth start of the year, isn’t making room for another Deere tro-

phy just yet.

“So many guys are in this thing,” Stricker said. “Guys can get off to hot starts here, but you can answer them also.”

There are 10 players within four shots of the lead and 13 within five. But of those players, only Stricker and Johnson, tied for fourth at 14 under, have won on the course.

“It will still be difficult for me tomorrow,” Stricker said.

James makes Cavs better, now East more wide open

BY BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer

NEW YORK — A word of caution to anyone anointing the Cleveland Cavaliers as the NBA favorites.

Yes, the Cavaliers are going to be good, no doubt. It’s impossible not to be with the game’s best player. But even LeBron James knows Cleveland has a lot of work to do.

“We’re not ready right now.

No way,” he wrote in his firstperson essay in Sports Illustrated. Quite a different tone than when he arrived in Mi-

ami four years ago.

Quite a different situation, too.

While the player dominos continue to fall in place during free agency, James’ decision has leveled the playing field even more in the up-forgrabs Eastern Conference.

And the battle should be very entertaining: James vs. the likes of Pat Riley, Phil Jackson and Larry Bird.

Cleveland won’t even be a sure thing within its own division where Bird’s Indiana Pacers and the Chicago Bulls

have veteran squads that have played together for years.

And an NBA championship is surely no guarantee, not with the San Antonio Spurs possibly even stronger than the powerhouse that rolled through James and the Heat in the NBA Finals. The Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Clippers are potent, and the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers don’t look far away. So if Cleveland’s a favorite, it may only be a sentimental one, for those wanting to see James

lead his home team to a title that has eluded the city in all major sports for 50 years.

“We have to pull for the Cavaliers now,” Charles Barkley said on NBA TV. “We have to pull for that team.”

Toronto (Kyle Lowry) and Washington (Marcin Gortat) held on to key pieces from their up-and-coming squads. Brooklyn believes it has another year to contend if Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett stick around, and the Knicks have been telling Carmelo Anthony they expect to be better if he returns.

But Harman has never finished better than a tie for third. The 27-yearold Harman hit 17 greens and 12 of 14 fairways in the third round. The lefthander from Georgia bogeyed Nos. 12 and 18, the latter by missing the green with his approach.

Western tale ends all too soon

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

“The Last Kind Words Saloon” by Larry McMurtry c.2014, Liveright $24.95 / $27.95 Canada 199 pages Every good thing must come to an end.

In some cases, that’s a surprising relief: you can only have just so much fun.

In other cases, though, the end comes quietly, slowly, so that few actually realize it until it’s already crept away. That includes friendships and ways of life, and in “The Last Kind Words Saloon”

by Larry McMurtry, it’s almost closin’ time.

Every cowboy in Texas knew that Charlie Goodnight possessed exceptional hearing and vision: Charlie could see and hear anything on the plains, but that didn’t stop him from going into a partnership with a showy Englishman who had no sense.

It was odd, but it wasn’t all bad. When Lord Ernle had a little accident, Charlie ended up with land, cattle, and a half-done mansion on the ridge near Long Grass – which was “nearly in Kansas , but not quite… nearly in New Mexico , too, but not quite... might be in Texas .”

Finally, Charlie’s wife, Mary, got the house she

wanted. And when the exotic beauty everybody thought was Ernle’s concubine moved in, Mary got the woman-friend she wanted, too.

The mansion – and the man who planned it – had been the talk of Long Grass. Doc Holliday hoped he might perform dental surgery on the staff who’d arrived on the Englishman’s behalf, and make a little money. Wyatt Earp didn’t say much about the bagpipers, the Englishman’s butcher, or his chef – but then again, Wyatt was a man of few words anyhow.

Maybe he was thinking about his wife, Jessie.

Sometimes, she seemed to hate him. And some-

times, it was the other way around.

With nothing to do in Long Grass but drink, the commotion the Englishman brought was welcome – for a time. So was the job that Doc and Wyatt took in Denver , but that didn’t work out, either. They’d heard that Tombstone , Arizona was looking for lawmen and, since Wyatt’s brothers were looking for jobs, it seemed right to head southwest…

Here’s why I always like novels by author Larry McMurtry: they’re told so casually. The story is easy; it moseys in little slices of humor and relaxed discomfort, and the characters are even-

tempered. The horrifying blood-and-torture violence – and there’s always plenty of that – is written lovingly but offhanded, as though McMurtry is reciting a menu and, by the way, would you shut the door, please?

“The Last Kind Words Saloon” follows this storytelling method, but this novel seemed almost like a one-off. It’s short, first of all: at just under 200 pages, it’s almost a novelette.

It meanders a little more than most McMurtry books and there are interesting plotlines that die all too soon.

And yet – who could resist a tale of friendship that’s so Lonesome-

Dove-like? Who could turn away a novel that seems to quietly close the Old West by bringing its biggest characters together with some of McMurtry’s?

I know I couldn’t, and if you like good storytelling, then you’ll want to read it, too. “The Last Kind Words Saloon” is a book you won’t want to end.

‘In these woods, a thousand dramas play out every night’ I didn’t know if they’d been dumped on that deserted stretch of road or if their mother was off hunting, but it was a cold October night with a rainstorm coming on.

I waded through the briars to gather the mewing kittens into a fold of my sweatshirt and brought them home, so young they could not feed themselves.

Bottlefed those “weens” (short for “wee ones”) on goat’s milk (canned, from Kroger’s) till they were big enough to give away.

All but the “ween” with the winsome, white face.

Eleven years later, she still greets me almost every morning, running upstairs when she hears us stirring. Ween rarely meows. She chirrups. And trills. She leaps onto the flat-topped bannister and lifts her head.

I lean over and we touch noses, or she closes her eyes and rubs her forehead against mine. Then back onto the floor with a thunk, she dashes ahead and down the stairs on fluffy feet like overstuffed bedroom slippers.

We’re not always the

only ones up early.

Last week, I glanced out of the window and was Ryland s t a r t l e d Bruhwiler to behold a pretty Columnist rabbit nibbling grass not 20 feet from our back door. She’d eat a bit, then bob a step or two onward, that cute way bunnies move about their business, so different from the all-out, fleet-footed flight when they are pursued.

Charming as was the scene, I was most unhappy to be entertaining a bunny in broad day. I did not want to see my dogs light out after that sweet thing or watch her scrambling for her life.

Rabbits are high on their list of jollies. They give a dog such a good run.

But not one of our big guys is as practised or fierce a hunter as is the Ween. Those fluffy feet hide a formidable set of claws. And when she shifts moods, her gaze is flatter and more pitiless than any dog’s I’ve ever

owned.

At least that bunny is too big for Ween, I thought.

Two or three days later, the Labradors and Doberman reached the house ahead of me after our morning’s walkabout. I rounded the corner into the garage, the dogs milling by the door, Ween crouched beneath a lawn chair looking ruffled, the way she does when those lummoxes crowd her. The Doberman had a baby rabbit dangling from his jaws.

“Drop it!” I yelled, and with his usual reluctance, he did.

I fanned the dogs away, then stooped to look at the creature. Its neck did not look broken, the limbs weren’t mangled. The beating of its heart was still visible in its chest.

If I tucked it among the bushes where woods meet yard, it might be found by its mother.

Wondering how the Doberman had snatched the tot out of its burrow without my noticing, I hurried the dogs inside the house, grabbed my gloves, and headed back

Every now and then I wonder if it’d have been a kindness to have walked on by those kittens in that field 11 years ago. Not to her, of course, but to all the furry critters that she’s killed and the many, many birds. into the garage--to find Ween with its leg in her mouth, whether to drag it off or just commencing on a late breakfast, I wasn’t sure.

“Ween!” She backed off, her expression grumpy.

I bent over it again. No heartbeat.

Lifting the small body into the air, I was mesmerized by its perfection, hating to toss it into a garbage can. There is no baby

animal more beautiful than a bunny. The elegant ears, the tapering front paws, the tad of a tail.

It must have died of shock. A good thing, shock. Otherwise, horrible to feel oneself eaten alive. If you have a chance of getting away, if you can kick hard enough or bite hard enough, okay, keep your senses. But not this soft, wee creature.

There was nothing to be done. I gathered my tools and headed for the flowerbed I’ve been working on since April, an endless project.....

And there went Ween, moving with furtive grace across the yard. Surely she’s not going back for another bunny.

Darn if she wasn’t. Minutes later, I heard two or three sharp shrieks and looked around. There’s Ween hurrying toward the garage, holding another wriggling Mopsy by the scruff of the neck as if it were a fractious kitten.

I burst out of the coneflowers, doing some shrieking myself. Loaded down, Ween could not outrun me. When I grabbed her, she dropped

the baby, who hightailed it for a cluster of potted plants. I marched to the house, Ween struggling in my arms. She wanted to catch that cottontail again. Badly. Urgently. I held her hard till we got inside.

Not a scratch on my bare arms.

I appreciated that. But every now and then I wonder if it’d have been a kindness to have walked on by those kittens in that field 11 years ago. Not to her, of course, but to all the furry critters that she’s killed and the many, many birds.

When John and I set off on our evening walk, I peered among those pots and found the second bunny still huddled there, eyes open. Sightless.

Picked that perfect body up and held it out for John to see. He looked sad. “In these woods, a thousand little dramas play out every night,” he said.

Small brick room discovery fuels speculation about its history

BY KATIE WILLIAMSON The Daily Leader

BROOKHAVEN — When construction crews broke ground on a new Miller & White accounting office that is being built in the downtown, they unearthed a mystery from one of Brookhaven’s past lives: a small brick room with steps and a small space that leads to a door in the sidewalk.

Since the discovery, speculation has run rampant, but a deeper look in to the lot’s past has illuminated an interesting chapter of Brookhaven’s history.

The earliest records available at the LincolnBrookhaven Government complex show that the lot was sold to Peter Lucich by the Whitworth heirs in 1876. Lucich built the two-story St. Marco hotel on the lot. This is the first recorded building and most likely the only building that was on the property.

John Perkins, whose family bought the property from Lucich, said The St. Marco hotel was a layover place for railroad crews who liked to drink and enjoyed the company of nightly female companions.

Perkins said the hotel resembled buildings in downtown New Orleans.

It had a balcony with intricate iron railings. Sev-

eral current Brookhaven residents recounted the same tale about a man that was so drunk that he fell off that balcony and died.

Brookhaven was not a place you would bring your children to in those days, the story goes.

There are two predictions about the original use for the underground room. Some say that it was used for shoveling in coal for steam heat and some say it was used for storing water in case of a fire.

If it was for steam heat, the little door on the sidewalk could have been used for transporting coal to the boiler, which would have been used to heat the hotel. Coal heat was very messy, so when natural gas was available, people abandoned the older-style fuel as soon as possible.

Around the 1920s, coal heat was obsolete in the area. The little room would have been abandoned in the early 1900s, leaving it available for all kinds of mischief, according to local stories On the other hand, the space may have been built to store water. Firefighters would use the water that was kept under buildings as the only means of putting out fire, some say.

The room would have housed a kind of cistern

There are two predictions about the original use for the underground room. Some say that it was used for shoveling in coal for steam heat and some say it was used for storing water in case of a fire. ... On the other hand, the space may have been built to store water. Firefighters would use the water that was kept under buildings as the only means of putting out fire, some say. that firefighters could pump water from. This method of firefighting was used way before the Lucich building existed, but it could explain the hole in the floor of the room.

In both scenarios, the little brick belowground room was established at the same time as the hotel in 1876.

In 1894 the Perkins family bought the building from Lucich. The property was the site of the first Perkins furniture, which later moved to the building across the street.

The history of the building gets a bit complicated from this point, because the original property was divided among different

business owners.

It is speculated that the small brick room may have resided on the north half of the property, so the rest of the stories primarily follows the north part of the lot.

When Perkins sold his property to Sauls in 1919, the building contained Star Lunch, A.C. Cato and Merchants and Farmers Bank, according to government records.

Old copies of The Daily Leader report that in 1899 Gus Bell opened a shop in the building and in 1900 Dr. Gordon Penn located his dentistry practice in an apartment in the Lucich building and Mr. Day opened a barbershop.

A small branch from

the underground room leads to a metal door in the sidewalk.

National prohibition was put into effect in 1919.

During this time, drinking became an underground activity marked by moonshiners and speakeasies.

This period ended nationally in 1933.

Most local residents’ speculations about the underground room revolve around a moonshiner’s keep.

John Perkins said it was definitely used for liquor, although he never took a drink down there.

“Things were a lot looser back then,” said Perkins. “Everybody knew about it but nobody said anything.”

The property would have been owned by Sauls, but any business in the building could have been shuffling the liquor in and out through the basement.

Since Mississippi’s prohibition began in 1908 and lasted till 1966, it could have been used for liquor at any point, but Perkins said he knows that it was there during the national prohibition.

After prohibition, Sauls sold the north half to Roberts in 1938, Roberts sold to Tilson in 1953 and Tilson sold to the East family in 1960.

East’s Pharmacy was already established in

part of the building before 1960. Floyd C. East worked in Hoffman’s drug store for seven years beginning in 1938. Hoffman’s drug store was a chain across Brookhaven, and the Lucich building was the site of Hoffman’s Number Two which opened in 1935. In 1943 Hoffman sold the south half of the lot to East, marking the beginning of East Pharmacy.

Martha East Morgan grew up spending time in her family’s pharmacy.

She said that she never remembered a secret basement.

She can remember every inch of the floor plan, but was never told about a basement.

The general consensus is that the basement door was sealed off sometime before 1938.

The Easts lost the pharmacy in 1971, and in 1972 the Lofton family owned the lot.

In 2007 the over-100year-old building burned down. Since then, nothing had come of the lot until Miller & White began work on their building.

The property sat empty for seven years, no one knowing about the secret room just below the surface of the red dirt until earth-moving equipment uncovered it.

The underground room has since been filled in.

Make guests feel special with extra touches Wedding receptions run the gamut from small, intimate gatherings in a restaurant to large spectacles featuring hundreds of guests inside a banquet hall. At the heart of any wedding reception is the desire to present a memorable party for all in attendance.

That being said, there are some steps couples can take to add extra indulgence to wedding receptions and really set them apart from the mundane.

With the average cost of weddings now teeter-

ing around $28,000, couples certainly are pulling out expensive stops to treat guests to a good party.

With this in mind, many want to add special touches to the wedding that will show guests how much they are appreciated and to make their celebration different from previous weddings. Here are some ways to do just that.

• Butler-passed hors d’oeuvres: During the cocktail hour guests are mingling and taking advantage of the opportunity to engage in conversa-

tion. This may be the last real opportunity to chat amongst one another before the volume of the band or deejay drowns out discussions. Rather than disrupt the flow of conversation to make a trip to the food stations, choose butler-passed hors d’oeuvres to bring food right to the guests.

It lends a feeling of indulgence and is also a convenient way to keep guests satiated.

• Valet parking: Most wedding venues provide on-site valet parking.

However, if you’re using a restaurant or banquet

hall that does not provide this service, you can hire a valet company to do the parking for guests.

• Emergency toiletries baskets: Rather than spending money on an extra floral arrangement for the men’s and women’s restrooms, purchase items that can be grouped into a handy basket. For women, include items such as extra pairs of stockings, spray deodorant, sanitary items, and sewing kits. For men, mints or mouthwash, dental floss, cologne, and stain removal pens may come in handy.

• Specialty courses: In addition to the cocktail hour and the main meal, you may be able to arrange specialty stations for guests with particular palates or interests. Some couples like to have a cigar smoking area or you can offer specialty cocktails.

When ethnic customs are included in a wedding, menu items can be geared around native dishes.

Candy and dessert bars are also popular to have at weddings, particularly if children are invited.

• Birthday and anniversary mentions: You can notify the band or deejay of any guests in attendance who may be celebrating their own special events on your wedding day or in close proximity.

There are many extra touches you can take as a couple to make guests feel welcomed and important at your wedding.

Miss Carlee Puckett and Mr. Joshua Harrison will exchange vows at 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 19, 2014, at Golden Central Baptist Church in Golden.

The bride-elect is the daughter of Michael and Rhonda Puckett of Iuka.

She is the granddaughter of Wayne and Peggy Prince of Cairo and Linda Puckett and the late Ed Puckett of Iuka.

The prospective groom is the son of Jeff and Cathy Harrison of Belmont.

The bride-elect is a 2010 graduate of Tishomingo County High School.

She received her Bachelor’s in Elementary Education from Mississippi State University in 2014.

She is presently employed at Iuka Middle School.

The prospective groom is a 2009 graduate of Belmont High School.

He is a 2014 graduate of Mississippi State University where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology. He is presently employed at Tishomingo County High School.

All friends and relatives of the couple are invited to attend the ceremony and the reception which follows.

5 tips for buying an engagement ring

BY ALEX VEIGA AP Business Writer

You’re in love and ready to buy an engagement ring.

But are you ready to part with three months’ salary as the diamond industry has traditionally suggested? If not, what’s your magic number?

Figuring that out can be a stressful, high-stakes undertaking.

Engagement rings come with unique financial and emotional expectations.

And in a relationship intended to last a lifetime, it’s the first big test.

“It does set a certain tone about whether a woman’s expectations will be met by her husband or not,” said Julie Albright, a sociologist and marriage and family therapist at the University of Southern California.

Even so, how much to spend rests in striking a balance between dazzling your beloved without tarnishing your future financial goals together.

1. CONSIDER FUTURE FINANCIAL GOALS: Whether you have a wheelbarrow full of cash ready to bring to your local jewelry store or not, your future plans as a couple should be part of the calculus for how much you can afford.

Sit down with your partner and go over your short- and long-term financial goals. Beyond wedding expenses, goals could include saving for a down payment on a home, preparing to start a family, as well as retirement planning.

“This is the perfect entry point to see where each person’s money values come from,” said Michael Branham, a certified financial planner in Edina, Minnesota. “How are we going to put that life together and how does buying something like an engagement ring fit into that picture?”

2. GET A FIX ON EXPECTATIONS: First off, don’t feel compelled to heed to the expectation that a ring cost three months’ salary, the benchmark established by the De Beers diamond

cartel.

“That’s actually kind of a myth that people somehow still believe,” said Jamie Miles, editor of wedding planning website TheKnot.com.

“You might have a more subtle bride who wants something more petite and more demure,” Miles said.

A good way to gauge how much you may have to spend is to find out what kind of ring your would-be spouse is expecting. You could try asking friends and family, but these days it’s increasingly common to see couples browse jewelry stores together to remove the guesswork.

3. WEIGH PAYMENT OPTIONS? You’ve had a look at the setting and diamonds (or other gemstones) that your beloved covets, and figured out which merchants offer the best price. The next step is to figure out how you will pay for the ring.

If you can put off the proposal, it’s best to save up money to buy the ring with cash, said Gregg Wind, a certified public accountant in Los Angeles.

Otherwise, how much you can afford becomes a question of how much extra you’ll have to shell out overall if you finance the purchase, and how much you can pay per month while also meeting your other obligations.

4. BEWARE OF FINANCING: Major jewelers generally offer financing with the enticement of six months or one year interest-free.

But if the ring isn’t paid off within the promotional period, or if you’re late on a payment, you could end up being retroactively charged 25 percent interest or more on the total price.

5. UPGRADE LATER: Even if you determine that you can’t afford as nice a ring as you hoped, consider buying something more modest and popping the question anyway. You can always trade up for a nicer ring in a few years.
