Big boost in mobile broadband coming

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

C Spire Wireless is about 60 days away from launching a major boost to mobile broadband speeds in Corinth and Alcorn County.

The launch of 4G LTE service, which will make browsing the web and e-mail speedier on compatible smart phones and tablets, is scheduled for September.

“Most national carriers don’t have that type of coverage in smaller towns,” said Tim Long, business account executive with C Spire. “Corinth and Alcorn County is going to be a part of the very first build-out for us. We’re tickled that Alcorn County is a part of it.”

The service is also launching in other northeast Mississippi counties. While 3G service runs

a bit faster than DSL Internet service, Long said tests are showing the 4G LTE service will run 10 times that speed.

“We’re looking at cable Internet speeds on-the-go,” he said.

“It’s really exciting for our area.”

Long said the company will be well ahead of national carriers in bringing 4G LTE speeds to the region.

“It is the new standard of

communication,” he said. “Everybody wants it to work faster; they want it to work cleaner; they want fewer disconnects when they are on the Internet or checking e-mail — this is going to do all of that.”

Telepak has been placing fiber optic lines for the service, and the preparations for launch are slightly ahead of schedule, according to Long. The Ridge-

Witnesses report plane entering storm cloud prior to crashing

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

A small plane that crashed last week near New Site killing all three members of a Georgia family on board was spotted entering a storm cloud and then exiting the cloud in an almost vertical descent before plummeting to the ground during a violent thunderstorm.

More details of the crash which claimed the lives of Georgia podiatrist Dr. James Joseph Bartley Jr., his wife, Terry Hammond Bartley and daughter, Caroline Victoria Bartley, were released Monday by the National Transportation Safety Board in its preliminary report on the crash investigation.

The crash of the family’s Piper Cherokee Lance was first reported around 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 8. The wreckage of the plane was located around two hours later just off County Road 4111 near New Site High School.

The report states an eyewitness told investigators the airplane “was observed entering a cloud associated with a ‘really bad thunderstorm’ and subsequently was spotted exiting the cloud in a near vertical descent attitude.”

land-based company is investing about $100 million in the region to launch the network.

He said the carrier continues to work to improve coverage and added a new tower in Farmington about six months ago.

Long appeared before the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors Monday to entice the board to consider using C Spire’s service.

An afternoon accident claimed the life of a Rienzi man on Saturday.

Leroy Rogers, 78, was killed when he apparently lost control of his 2002 Ford pickup and crashed into two parked vehicles six miles west of Corinth.

Rogers was headed west on U.S. Highway 72 when his pickup, also carrying a 17 yearold passenger, left the road and smashed into a culvert before rolling over, and colliding with the other two vehicles.

Rogers has to be extricated from the vehicle. The 17 yearold passenger received only minor injuries.

Neither occupant was wearing a seat belt.

According to the Mississippi Highway Patrol, weather played a part in the fatal accident. It appeared the vehicle hydroplaned, causing the driver

Rienzi wants to turn industrial CT-A receives grant building into community center from arts commission

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Town officials in Rienzi hope to bring a community center to a fading industrial building.

Once used by the Wurlitzer company and later by King Manufacturing Company, the building in downtown Rienzi is in declining condition.

“We want to put some life to it and bring it back to the community if we can as maybe a community center, recreation area and a park or walking track,” said Mayor Walter Williams.

He and other town representatives addressed the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors Monday morning with the

request. The county-owned building has been leased to King Manufacturing.

“In about 1987,” said attorney Gene Gifford, “King Manufacturing Company subleased this property to Pierce Foam. They evidently operated for a while and then went by the wayside. Long story short, we’ve had a building that’s sitting there in a state of disrepair. Really, it’s an eyesore. We would just like to see something done with it.”

District 3 Supervisor Tim Mitchell said he supports the project and hopes to see the town of Rienzi become the overseer of the property and for the town to determine how

it will be used. Mitchell said King Manufacturing is willing to turn the property back over to the county after the current sublease tenant is given time to vacate.

Corinth Theatre-Arts has been awarded a $13,800 grant from the Mississippi Arts Commission (MAC). The grant is part of $1.5 million the commission will award in 2012-13.

The theatre company also receives funding for specific projects through the CARE Foundation, the Create Foundation and the Pierce Foundation.

Other funding comes from

Old depot becomes museum Associated Press

VICKSBURG — Vicksburg is celebrating the opening of the Old Depot Museum.

It’s housed in the former Yazoo and Mississippi River Valley Railroad Depot. The grand opening was held Sunday.

The museum in downtown Vicksburg features a huge collection of ship models and riverboat models.

“We have an exhibit of tow boats and river boat models. We have a miniature layout of the Vicksburg Battle Field...

We have U.S. Naval Vessels named for people and places in Mississippi. There are over a hundred of them and we have 50 of them represented. We hope it will draw some people in.

We hope it will become a star attraction for Vicksburg,” said Old Depot Museum Director Lamar Roberts.

The six-year $1.6 million renovation project was made possible by a Mississippi Department of Transportation grant.

The building also houses the Vicksburg Convention and Visitors

More than 125 individuals from area volunteer fire departments, rescue squads, law enforcement agencies, other groups and the general public converged on the area to aid in the search immediately after the plane was reported down.

Searchers located the main wreckage around 4 p.m., two hours after the crash, with the help of the Air Evac Lifeteam helicopter from Corinth.

Mississippi revenue collections up but no joy

BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. JACKSON — Forgive people in the upper echelons of Mississippi government for not being excited about year-end tax collections that were $250 million, or 5.5 percent, higher than expectations.

Fiscal 2012 ended June 30, and fiscal 2013 began July 1.

Many believe the 2013 state budget was underfunded when lawmakers left town in April. Agency directors who are feeling shortchanged will begin jockeying now to get more money in January, although there are no guarantees those requests will be granted.

Many lawmakers think they did well in holding spending in check, but they’re finding that having a spare $250 million can be a royal pain.

“Used to be, we’d have a feeding frenzy with this kind of money on the table,” said House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville. “We’re not going to spend it on recurring expenses.”

Frierson said the state’s reserves funds need to be built up.

Others think the $250 million should be put to good use before the current fiscal year ends.

“I’m not saying we should spend it all,” said Rep. Cecil Brown, D-Jackson. “There are a lot of needs that could be addressed with some of this money. There is some truth that we should be cautious in what we do. We have been cautious. We have left money in the reserve accounts.”

Brown, a former member of the Legislative Budget Committee, said lawmakers wouldn’t have to look far for needs.

“We cut $250 million from K-12 — and districts have dipped into reserves. And we were way short on health care,” he said.

For many years, Mississippi lawmakers have relied on “one-time money,” or funding sources that are available only a single year at a time.

Budget writers say that’s a problem because it leaves them scrambling each year to find reserve funds they can raid to pad out the budget.

In September, the Budget Committee will hold public hearings to begin work on a fiscal 2014 spend plan. Frierson said leaders want to reduce reliance on one-time money.

Frierson said about $589 million of onetime money was used during fiscal 2012. He said that is reduced to about $430 million in 2013. He said tax collections would have to grow 10 percent to 11 percent a year to shift away from one-time money.

Frierson and others believe the ideal situation would be for recurring revenues to match recurring expenditures.

“There’s always going to be one-time money in the budget. We need to keep it at a manageable level,” Frierson said.

The overall budget for fiscal 2013 is slightly larger than the $5.5 billion the state spent during fiscal 2012. The Mississippi economy has shown slow but steady growth as it emerges from the Great Recession, but experts have cautioned lawmakers that it could be years before the state enjoys robust tax collections.

State agencies have been told to file their 2014 budget requests with the Legislative Budget Office by Aug. 1.

Frierson said lawmakers will enter the budget hearings with a healthy level of skepticism. “We probably won’t be comfortable with it until November,” he said of the current year’s revenue estimate. “The national economy is slowing down....We’ve got to figure out what is going here.”

Rep. Greg Snowden, R-Meridian, described the fiscal 2012 figures as “modestly good news.” “Things are picking up. We are slowly but surely improving revenue-wise, but we are still going to have challenging budgets for the next several years,” said Snowden, who is the House’s No. 2 leader.

Republican Gov. Phil Bryant called the revenue numbers encouraging. Bryant still wants agencies to watch their spending.

NAACP speech for those seeking better lives Mitt Romney’s speech to the NAACP convention in Houston was — according to one’s political perspective — a “calculated move on his part to get booed...” to help his white base (Rep. Nancy Pelosi), or a presentation to “independent thinking adult citizens” whom he treated as equals (Rush Limbaugh).

Having an adult conversation in a racially and politically polarized age is nearly impossible, especially when our current political culture does not require a solution to problems, only the use of rhetoric and symbols to gain political power.

The second “A” in NAACP stands for “advancement.”

By any standard, AfricanAmericans receiving government assistance do not appear to have advanced much, if by advancement one means progress toward a steady job. In fact, a serious argument could be made that they are falling farther behind.

“If equal opportunity in America were an accomplished fact,” Romney told his Houston audience, “then a chronically bad economy would be equally bad for everyone. Instead, it’s worse for African Americans in almost every way. ... In June, while the overall unemployment rate remained stuck at 8.2 percent, the unemployment rate for African Americans actually went up, from 13.6 percent to 14.4 percent.”

Equally disconcerting are the number of births to sin-

gle AfricanAmerican women, the incarceration rate for African-American men, the Cal number of Thomas failing public schools that Columnist sustain the cycle of poverty and crime in disadvantaged communities and a federal government that offers checks instead of solutions to problems, leading to a dependence on taxpayer dollars.

This was what Romney was getting at in his speech.

He spoke of an economy that creates jobs. He spoke of creating stronger families and more opportunities for all Americans. He endorsed school choice. Why would members of the NAACP oppose parents choosing the school that offers the best education for their children? Perhaps some NAACP members oppose choice because the Democratic Party and the teachers unions to which they appear joined at the hip are against them.

The school voucher program provides federal tax dollars to subsidize privateschool tuition for needy students and where vouchers are available, low-income students mostly benefit. Yet Democrats seem to want to block their escape from failing schools, maintaining the program doesn’t help most students. “The federal government should focus

its attention and available resources on improving the quality of public schools for all students,” says Obama’s statement of administration policy, “Private school vouchers are not an effective way to improve student achievement.” That’s news to Dr. Patrick Wolf at the University of Arkansas.

According to Wolf’s government-sponsored study, “the program increased the graduation rate of students using vouchers by 21 percent (from 70 percent to a whopping 91 percent).”

Reaction to Romney’s measured speech was predictable.

Charlette Stokes-Manning, a chairwoman of Women in NAACP, said: “I believe his vested interests are in white Americans. You cannot possibly talk about jobs for black people at the level he’s coming from. He’s talking about entrepreneurship, savings accounts -- black people can barely find a way to get back and forth from work.”

If a white person had said this, he would have been accused of racial stereotyping.

Black people don’t know about savings accounts?

Black people know nothing about entrepreneurship?

Stokes-Manning should read Black Enterprise magazine, which bills itself as “Your No.1 resource for black entrepreneurs.” Its slogan is “Wealth for Life.”

Is Stokes-Manning suggesting blacks can’t succeed?

NAACP President Ben Jealous said of Romney’s

speech, “He really wasn’t trying to talk to them (the audience). He was trying to talk to somebody else.”

He’s right. Romney was not speaking just to the Houston audience, mostly comprised of those tied to the civil rights establishment, but to those seeking jobs and a better life.

President Obama did not make the NAACP convention, citing a scheduling conflict. If he had shown up, he might have had to face questions about his failure to deliver on his 2008 campaign promises. Instead, Vice President Joe Biden attended and imagined what a Romney Justice Department would look like. The unserious Biden gave an unserious speech, but he was applauded. So was Romney at the end, though he was booed for saying he would repeal Obamacare.

What would the NAACP delegates have preferred to hear from Romney? A speech advocating higher black unemployment? More people on food stamps? That is what the Obama administration is giving them. What the NAACP needs is a freedom from government movement, but it won’t get one because the organization’s allegiance is less to AfricanAmerican advancement than it is to the Democratic Party and the scraps it provides in exchange for votes.

Embracing freedom to do the wrong thing New York City, ever the leader in healthy living, is about to ban the sale of super-sized sodas and other sweetened drinks by its restaurants, movie theaters, and street carts.

As part of a continuing campaign against obesity, it’s going to prohibit beverage containers bigger than 16 ounces.

“Obesity is a nationwide problem, and all over the United States, public officials are wringing their hands saying, ‘Oh, this is terrible,’” said Mayor Mike Bloomberg. “New York City is not about wringing your hands; it’s about doing something.”

Good luck with that, Mayor.

On the one hand, the ban seems a little like passing a law against shoving beans up your nose. I mean, really. Do we have to make stupid actions illegal before people stop doing them?

Apparently so. Recent studies have found that as many as two-thirds of New Yorkers are overweight, with a third of them classified as obese. (And the numbers for the rest of the

country are no better.)

Part of the reason is that people are encouraged to buy heavDonald ily sweetened Kaul soda in containers the Other Words size of fire buckets.

Under the new law, if someone wants to wash down his or her double cheeseburger with 32 ounces of Pepsi or Coke’s finest, they’ll have to buy two 16-ounce servings.

And if that doesn’t sound like a big deal, it’s because it isn’t. But it will make people — and especially kids — think twice before doing something really dumb.

After that, they’re on their own.

On the other hand, as much as I hate to admit it, there’s something almost un-American about forcing people to do the right thing.

We’re famous for embracing the freedom to do the wrong thing, as often as we please.

Conservatives are particularly vociferous about this. The ban on supersized

sweet beverages is another example of the “nanny state,” they say, the government thinking that it knows best.

As one college student, with the clarity of mind typical of college students, told The New York Times in response to the proposed ban: “If people want to drink 24 ounces, it’s their decision.”

What’s next, conservatives ask? Loudspeakers mounted in public parks so that the government can lead mass exercise drills?

That’s North Korea, not us.

On the third hand, how is forcing people to do the right thing un-American? We do that all of the time. We pass laws to make people wear seat belts and motorcycle helmets and strap small children into car seats. We prohibit them from buying drugs we think are harmful to them, we limit their freedom to smoke in public and private spaces. We’ve even made suicide illegal in most places (although that seems to me a classic case of locking the barn door after the horse is way gone).

On the fourth hand, the problem with granting

people the freedom to act in self-destructive ways is that the damage they do isn’t just to themselves. The societal costs of obesity, for example, are enormous in terms of health care costs, insurance premiums, and lost productivity.

On the fifth hand, how much choice do we really have anyway? The advertising industry has become so adept at invading our minds and manipulating them to its ends that the concept of “free choice” has become a mockery.

From the time they are tykes, children are bombarded with messages that sweet is not merely good but the only good. Frosted cereal, syrupy drinks, and candy treats make up a good share of the foodstuffs advertised on kiddy shows.

By the time most kids get through kindergarten, they are brainwashed.

New York is simply trying to give those brains a light rinse.

After all, who would really choose to be obese?

State Briefs Associated Press

Wrongful firing case goes back to court OXFORD — A federal appeals court has reinstated Keri M. Towns’ wrongful termination case against Northeast Mississippi Electric Power Association.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports that the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a Mississippi federal judge who had ruled for the utility.

The Mississippi judge sided with the Oxfordbased utility on whether Towns gave adequate notice for leave under the Family Medical Leave Act. According to the lawsuit, Towns joined NEMEPA as a cashier in 2006. Her arm and hands pain and swelling were diagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome Sept.

12, 2007.

She filed a worker’s compensation claim, which was denied after another doctor told her she had a pre-existing bone disease.

About four months later, she arranged for short-term disability

through her employer and was referred to another doctor, who released her to light duty status with restrictions on the use of her arms.

When she attempted to return to work, she couldn’t perform her duties because she could not lift her left arm, the lawsuit says.

Towns claimed she regularly updated her employer, but on Dec. 26, 2007, she was fired by letter.

Ultimately, new doctors diagnosed her with carpal tunnel, she underwent surgery and filed her lawsuit.

The Mississippi judge denied Towns’ claims and concluded that she failed to provide the utility with enough notice that she was entitled to a leave under the FMLA. In her appeal, Towns’ attorneys argue that she gave NEMEPA enough information for the utility to grant her FMLA leave or to ask about her need for leave before firing her.

The utility argues she never tried to pursue that leave but chose short-term disability instead and failed to com-

ply with company leavepolicy notice. Â

Sex offender to plead for failing to register OXFORD — Court records say a man is scheduled to plead guilty Thursday to a charge of failing to register as a sex offender.

J.D. Bell is charged with failing to update his registration from February 2011 to September 2011. He allegedly failed to update his registration while moving to and from land belonging to the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians.

Bell, who is 30, was convicted of sexual assault by use of threat or force in 2002.

The change of plea hearing is scheduled to take place in U.S. District Court in Oxford. Â

Biloxi considers horse ordinance BILOXI — The city of Biloxi has an ordinance that allows residents with at least three acres to have one horse.

City community development director Jerry

Creel tells WLOX-TV that a change has been proposed to allow residents to own two horses if they have at least three acres of land and then another horse for each additional acre.

The issue is expected to be come up before the Biloxi City Council on July 22. Creel says the planning board has recommended the change to the council.

If the request gets approval, Creel says it will make it much easier for Biloxi residents to own horses. Â

4 West Nile cases now reported JACKSON — The Mississippi State Health Department is reporting one new human case of West Nile virus in the state.

The new case is in Jones County. Other cases are in Lincoln, Lauderdale and Hancock counties.

In 2011, Mississippi had 52 cases and five deaths from West Nile virus.

Health officials say residents should take

swers from some government departments.

The city of Natchez owns 143 vehicles, 35 of which spend the night in the driveways of employees. That is based on data from the Natchez clerk’s office, with adjustment from department heads who said some of the clerk’s data was inaccurate.

Data provided by the Adams County Chancery Clerk’s office and a few county department heads showed the county owns 78 vehicles, close to half of them take-home vehicles.

Senate Dems ready $272 billion tax-cut extension measure

BY ALAN FRAM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The highest earning Americans would pay a top rate of 23.8 percent for capital gains and dividends next year under a $272 billion, oneyear extension of tax cuts that Senate Democrats are circulating among themselves.

A draft of the proposal shows that Democrats would keep income tax rates where they currently are for families earning below $250,000 a year and individuals making less than $200,000, as President Barack Obama has proposed. Obama and

Democrats would let the tax cuts enacted a decade ago on those earning more than that expire, leaving them facing a top income tax bracket of 39.6 percent.

The draft provides initial details of a bill that Democratic lawmakers have been describing in more general terms for months, and mostly follows Obama proposals. The measure is an embodiment of Obama’s re-election theme that it is only fair for the wealthy to contribute to efforts to reduce federal deficits.

About 98 per of households earn under $250,000 yearly. Boosting taxes on those earning above that

What Must I Do To Be Saved?

How shall we proceed to answer the question? Not from our feelings, opinions or prejudice. These vary with different individuals. There is no plainer and surer way than to turn to the Bible and read the question each time it is found, together with its answer. This would be scriptural and right beyond doubt; furthermore, it would present the whole truth on the question. The question is found four times in the New testament and one of these was while the law of Moses was still in force. We note: a rich young ruler came running and kneeled before Jesus and asked Him, “Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” - Mark 10: 17-22. Jesus referred him to the 10 Commandments. His life was to be guided by the law of Moses. You know the Commandments. He replied, “All these have I kept from my youth.” Jesus reminded him of his possessions. Such were keeping him away from God. Sell them and take up the cross and follow me. He went away grieved: for he had great wealth. Jesus answered his question, but he refused to follow Jesus. Could this be the reason many people today refuse to obey the gospel. We do not now, live under the law of Moses. We now live under the New Testament.

The New Testament teaches us to go in all the world every place in the world - and preach the Gospel of Christ.

Persecution scattered many of the early Christians. “Philip went down into Samaria and preached Christ unto them.

And the people with one accord gave heed unto these things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the Kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women” - Acts 8:5-12. The Samaritans listened to the teachings of Philip and they agreed with the message and they obeyed. Many today read the Bible or hear the teaching and turn a deaf ear.

Why? Because they have a mind set. We are what we are, because we want to be. The young ruler was a worshipper of God and Observer of the law but he had an idol in his heart.

Can man do the same today? “Be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves” - James 1:22 “My little children, keep yourselves from idols” - I John 5:21. What keeps me from obeying the gospel?

Democratic aides have said the Senate will debate the legislation as early as next week. Minority Republicans who say the tax increases will hinder job creation are virtually certain to derail the measure by forcing Democrats to produce 60 votes to prevail, which they will not be able to do.

When the debate occurs, Republicans are expected to offer their own measure extending the tax cuts for a year for everyone. The GOP-run House is expected to vote the week of July 30 on legislation renewing the tax cuts for everybody for a year and establishing a process aimed at pressuring Congress to overhaul the entire tax code next year.

MINNEAPOLIS — The drought gripping the United States is the widest since 1956, according to new data released Monday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Fifty-five percent of the continental U.S. was in a moderate to extreme drought by the end of June, NOAA’s National Climactic Data Center in Asheville, N.C., said in its monthly State of the Climate drought report.

That’s the largest percentage since December 1956, when 58 percent of the country was covered by drought.

This summer, 80 percent of the U.S. is abnormally dry, and the report said the drought expanded

in the West, Great Plains and Midwest last month with the 14th warmest and 10th driest June on record.

The nation’s corn and soybean belt has been especially hard hit over the past three months, the report said. That region has experienced its seventh warmest and 10th driest April-to-June period.

“Topsoil has dried out and crops, pastures and rangeland have deteriorated at a rate rarely seen in the last 18 years,” the report said.

The report is based on a data set going back to 1895 called the Palmer Drought Index, which feeds into the widely watched and more detailed U.S. Drought Monitor. It reported last week that 61 percent of the continental U.S. was in a

moderate to exceptional drought. However, the weekly Drought Monitor goes back only 12 years, so climatologists use the Palmer Drought Index for comparing droughts before 2000.

In southern Illinois’ Effingham County, Kenny Brummer is facing a double whammy — the drought has savaged the 800 acres of corn he grows for his 400 head of cattle and some 30,000 hogs, leaving him scrambling to find the couple of hundred thousand bushels of feed he’ll need.

“Where am I going to get that from? You have concerns about it every morning when you wake up,” Brummer, 59, said Monday. “The drought is bad, but that’s just half of the problem on this farm.”

Millions spent to keep up empty Katrina parcels

BY CAIN BURDEAU Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — More than 3,000 lots flooded

by Hurricane Katrina and bought with federal money in an emergency bailout sit idle across this city — a multimillion-dollar drain on federal, state and city coffers that lends itself to no easy solution.

An Associated Press examination of the properties sold to the government by homeowners abandoning New Orleans after the catastrophic 2005 flood has found that about $86 million has been spent on 5,100 abandoned parcels. And there’s no end in sight to maintenance costs for perhaps most of the 3,100 properties that remain unsold.

This portfolio of urban wasteland and blight represents part of the storm’s difficult legacy that persists nearly seven years later.

And with federal funding for maintenance running out, there’s concern the lots could fall into deeper neglect when this cash-strapped city is forced to pay for upkeep and that they could contribute to New Orleans’s staggering blight. At last count the city found an estimated 43,000 blighted properties, according to a city-sponsored analysis of U.S. Postal Service data.

“Right now nobody on those 3,000-plus properties is contributing. It’s costing the city and state

government to maintain them. Police got to go out there, run kids out of there, drug-users,” said Errol Williams, the tax assessor in New Orleans.

“That’s a cost to the city.

If they sell one, it comes back on the tax rolls, I’m happy.”

Until now, the properties have been managed by the Louisiana Land Trust, an agency set up using federal funds.

Jeff Thompson, a landuse lawyer on former Mayor Ray Nagin’s rebuilding team, said the city needs to be creative.

“Maybe they should make them into ponds to store water. Make them into parks or community gardens,” he said.

Donald Vallee, a longtime New Orleans developer, complained that city officials had not acted fast enough.

“How many years does it take them to do something?” said Vallee, who also sits on the Louisiana Land Trust board.

He advocated selling the lots at auction. Sitting on the properties, he said, was a “pure waste of money.”

Every month, LLT spends about $88 to cut the grass at each location.

Other expenses range from insurance to pest control.

Since 2007, when the first homes were bought, $34 million has been spent on maintenance, $4.5 million on security and $9.1 million on overhead costs in New Or-

leans, according to LLT. In addition, some $38 million has been spent on demolishing 3,607 homes beyond repair and tearing up 1,256 slabs.

Visits by a reporter to neighborhoods hit the hardest by the flood found these orphaned lots are contributing to blight and the checkerboard-like rebuilding still dragging on in parts of the city.

The tour of 45 government-owned properties was focused on the Lower 9th Ward and other neighborhoods where these abandoned lots are concentrated.

Overall, many unsold properties are in low-lying neighborhoods that suffered blight and poverty even before Katrina.

But they weren’t confined to rundown neighborhoods. On South Galvez Street in Broadmoor, an abandoned house was the only sign of Katrina left on the block.

Jim Provensal, a musician living next door, said he wanted to buy it, but the city agency in charge of selling or developing the properties, the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority, wanted $130,000.

“That’s too much money!” Provensal said.

“They don’t care. They know if they sell the property they won’t have a job.”

And so, the boarded-up house sits, paint peeling.

In the Lower 9th Ward, 739 homeowners sold to the state.

Demand is starting to grow for initial public stock offerings. This comes after a freeze triggered by a spring decline in financial markets and complicated by Facebookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rocky debut on May 18.

After Facebook, just four companies went public by the end of June. Although dealmakers are regaining confidence, the situation is far from rosy.

There are 68 companies seeking to raise a total $14.4 billion by going public later this year. But another market plunge could derail those plans. And last year at this time there were 135 companies looking to raise $23.6 billion.

The strength of the IPO market will be shaped by the

types of companies seeking to raise money. Mutual funds and other big investors are less likely now to be attracted to consumer-focused Internet companies like Zynga, a developer of online games. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve shifted to business technology companies, such as Palo Alto Networks, which they consider more stable.

Well-known consumer brands also tend to drum up IPO excitement among average investors. Beyond guitar maker Fender, several other consumer-oriented deals could ignite interest later this year. Among them are Bloominâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Brands, the owner of Outback Steakhouse; English professional soccer club Manchester United; and Coty, known for its celebrity perfumes.

Facebook thaw? 5 debuts are expected this week, testing the strength of the IPO market.

Fowler Open exceeds expectations

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

It didn’t rain on Ronnie.

That was an added bonus Saturday as 38 teams competed in the Ronnie Fowler Open at Hillandale Country Club.

“Everything went wonderful,” said Chris Brooks, who along with Michael Tull directed the four-man scramble. “It sprinkled some but held off until we got to the putting and long drive competition.

“It was a great day at Hillandale Country Club.”

The foursome of Ginna Bumpas, Jason Mottz, Collin Burns and Hunter Blackwell prevailed with an 18-under showing.

The tournament benefited Fowler, a longtime member of HCC and a multiple champion on the local circuit, who spent six months in a Birmingham, Ala., hospital.

“It far exceeded our expectations,” said Brooks. “The tournament really exploded.

We had four teams on the waiting list and turned away even more.

“The support was unbeliev-

able. A huge thanks goes to our sponsors and everyone that donated to the raffle.”

Fowler was able to spend about and hour-and-a-half at the event. He signaled the multiple tee-offs by ringing the bell and his two sons -Riley and Jake -- were able to witness it as they prepared for play on nearby No. 18.

“Everyone’s spirits were ripe and it was just one of those days where everything fell together,” said Brooks.

Chase Williams edged out Alex Tull to claim the long drive competition. Williams

and Ricky Barnett tied for honors in the putting contest.

“They donated their winnings to the family ... that was neat,” said Brooks.

Amanda Haggard won the women’s long drive competition.

The Hillandale Couples Tournament is next on the agenda. It will be held Friday-Saturday with play divided up among 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. tee times. Call the Pro Shop at 286-8020 or Paula Gunn at 287-7183 or 286-7793 for more information.

Lawn edges Yard in All-Star Game

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

FARMINGTON — The Lawn outlasted the Yard 8-7 in Friday’s Mississippi Yard Wiffleball League All-Star Game.

The contest went eight innings with the Lawn getting a key two-out homer over the Green Monster off the bat of Riley Mask.

“I was 0-for-7 and couldn’t get anything done at the plate,” said Mask. “So I was just trying to get some good plastic on the ball and it flew over.”

Jake Harrison added an insurance blast -- his second one of the game -- then recorded the save by inducing a groundout into the shift.

Hunter Bronson had pulled the Yard to within a run with his own blast over the monster.

Harrison, who was also credited with the victory, hit a grand slam earlier in the game en route to earning game MVP honors.

“It’s a huge honor and I am very humbled,” said Harrison.

“It’s an award that credits my teammates more than myself.

I’d like to thank the Dodgers Organization for giving me an opportunity to play in this game.”

The contest was open to players on all six teams. Jay Moore reported a record turnout of 25, including league players.

Participants from the Lawn Division included: Josh Harrison (Dodgers), Jake Harrison (Dodgers), Riley Mask (Braves), Jay Moore (Dodgers), Phillip Quinn (Braves), John Wiley Works (Padres), and Chandler Young (Padres).

Heading up the Yard team were: Hunter Bronson (Cubs), Chelsea Buntin (Cubs), Sam Carmichiel (Cubs), Gavin Ingle (Cardinals), Luke Maddox (Cubs), Tyler Moore (Cubs), Dustin Sparks (Cardinals).

“This All Star game showed how close the two divisions are,” said Jay Moore. “It’s going to be a close second half of the season and playoffs will be interesting to watch. There

will be some highly anticipated match ups.”

Tyler Moore claimed the Home Run Derby, which was held prior to the All-Star Game, by edging out his Cub teammate Bronson. Moore had to survive a swing off in the first round just to advance.

The Cardinals’ Gavin Ingle finished third, with Luke Maddox of the Cubs taking fourth.

Rain washed out the Old Timer’s Game on Thursday.

The field will play host to the Farmington Wiffleball Tournament on Sept. 14-16.

Entry fee for the double-elimination bash is $10 per team.

Teams are asked to register as soon as possible, but no later than Sept. 1 (For more visit www. leaguelineup.com/msyardwiffleballleague)

Slive has unfinished business, staying put Associated Press

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive has unfinished business and he isn’t leaving what has lately become college football’s penthouse anytime soon.

With two new members, six straight football national titles and a four-team playoff to determine future champions. Slive tells The Associated Press he has agreed to run the powerhouse SEC for “at least a couple more years,” continuing his decade-long tenure.

His contract was set to ex-

pire July 31, five days after he turns 72.

Slive is negotiating new TV deals that figure once again to be the most lucrative in college athletics. The exact method of choosing the fourteam playoff field each season must be hammered out, and the SEC is trying to assimilate Texas A&M and Missouri into the now-14-team league.

The commissioner discussed those issues — and his future — in an interview ahead of SEC media days, which run Tuesday through Thursday in suburban Birmingham.

“I have agreed with the league that I will stay at least a couple of more years, and then we’ll sit down and decide what happens after that,” said Slive, who makes just over $1 million a year. “Don’t forget it takes two. It’s not just me making a unilateral decision.

Both of us need to make that decision.”

Auburn’s Jay Jacobs, chairman of the league’s athletic directors, noted that the SEC produced 42 Academic AllAmericans, nine national team champions and seven runners-up in 2011-12.

“There’s absolutely no

doubt in my mind that Mike Slive is the best commissioner in the nation,” Jacobs said.

“It’s not an accident that the dominance of the SEC in recent years coincides with his tenure as commissioner. We all know the SEC has won six straight BCS national championships in football. His leadership transcends football and even all of athletics.”

The professorial Slive, who became a first-time grandfather this summer, has no shortage of projects before handing over the reins.

US basketball team struggles with Brazil Associated Press

WASHINGTON — LeBron James scored 30 points and the U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team rallied from an early 10-point deficit to beat Brazil 80-69 on Monday night.

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden watched the Americans get off to a dismal start, then turn it around by holding the Brazilians to two baskets in the second quarter.

James helped the U.S. pull away in the final four minutes after they led by only seven, getting his final point on a free throw with 31 seconds left as Obama departed.

Kevin Durant added 11 in his hometown for the Americans, who will leave Tuesday for Europe to complete their Olympic preparations. They face Britain in Manchester, England on Thursday before traveling to Barcelona to play Argentina and Spain.

It’s a solid exhibition schedule, and this game showed the Americans have some work to do before they get to London.

They were just 1 of 12 from 3-point range in the first half and struggled offensively when forced to play in the halfcourt.

The president met with the men’s and women’s teams, who swept the doubleheader from Brazil. He received a loud cheer when he arrived

but like the U.S. players got off to a slow start, he needed a second chance before First Lady Michelle Obama would grant him a kiss on the “Kiss Cam” segment.

Players were just walking onto the floor for the jump ball when Obama and Biden emerged from the tunnel to take their seats. The start was delayed while they greeted fans, and perhaps the break Please see BRAZIL | 9

SLIVE CONTINUED FROM 8

University presidents approved the switch to a four-team playoff model on June 26, similar to the one Slive proposed in 2008, three years into the SEC’s current run of dominance. It might have taken an all-SEC West showdown of Alabama vs. LSU in January to rally sufficient support from other commissioners, athletic directors and presidents.

Slive said conference commissioners will gather in September to work on details like revenue distribution and a college basketball-style selection committee for the four semifinalists.

“We’ll have to sit down and talk about what would be an appropriate number” for the committee, said Slive, who chaired the Division I Men’s Basketball Committee for the 2008-09 season. “There have been different numbers floated around — 16, 20. We certainly want to have enough members of the committee so that when certain committee members have to recuse themselves, we still have a significant group of people considering all the data and evaluating the teams.

“I visualize it working not unlike the men’s basketball committee that I was on and chaired for a year. You have both data and statistics and information, and then you couple that with what you see.”

The SEC might have had even more shots at a national title under the four-team system. The league had at least one team ranked among the Top 4 in the final BCS standings in 11 of the 14 years the system has been used.

Using that formula, at least, two teams would have made the cut in both 2006 (No. 2 Florida and No. 4 LSU) and 2008 (No. 2 Florida, No. 4 Alabama) as well as 2011. The first two times could have led to a rematch of the SEC championship game in the finale.

Slive demurs when asked if the change is yet another win for the SEC. ‘I think it’s a win for everybody,” he said. “It’s a win for college football in that all of us were able to come together in a collegial way and find a way to marry our own parochial interests as advocates for our leagues with our responsibility for what’s in the best interest of college football.”

Despite all that, the first order of business for the SEC is a likely return to the top of the heap in TV money. The league is renegotiating its pre-expansion 15year, $2.25 billion TV deal with ESPN and a $55 million-a-year contract with CBS, both signed in 2008. The Pac-12 has a $3 billion TV deal.

Slive said “there is no fixed timetable” and he’s not sure if new deals will be in place before the SEC’s quest for national title No. 7 in a row begins.

“It’s hard to know because we have meetings scheduled throughout this summer,” Slive said. “Whether or not those meetings come to a conclusion, I can’t predict.”

SEC schools each got a $20.1 million share of the financial pie in 2011-12.

Paterno family denies report findings Associated Press

Joe Paterno’s family on Monday vowed its own investigation of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal, rejecting the findings of a special investigator who concluded the late football coach and other top Penn State administrators concealed Sandusky’s abuse to shield the university from bad publicity.

“Our interest has been and remains the uncovering of the truth,” the family said in a statement.

The family characterized the 267-page report by former FBI Director Louis Freeh, who was hired by the university’s board of trustees, as “yet another shocking turn of events in this crisis” and said Paterno, who died in January at age 85, did not knowingly protect a

pedophile.

“We are dismayed by, and vehemently disagree with, some of the conclusions and assertions and the process by which they were developed,” the statement said. “Mr. Freeh presented his opinions and interpretations as if they were absolute facts.”

Sandusky awaits sentencing after being convicted last month of abusing 10 boys. He has maintained his innocence.

Freeh, citing emails and handwritten notes, concluded that Paterno intervened to stop a plan by three top Penn State officials to report a 2001 allegation against Sandusky to child-welfare authorities. The report also cited two emails that showed Paterno knew about a 1998 allegation against his longtime de-

fensive coordinator.

Freeh said Paterno and the other three officials, including ousted Penn State President Graham Spanier, exhibited “callous and shocking” disregard for child victims.

Spanier’s attorneys repeated their criticism of the Freeh report on Monday, saying it contained numerous inaccuracies and reached conclusions unsupported by the data.

“Mr. Freeh unfairly offered up Dr. Spanier and others to those insisting upon a finding of culpability at the highest level of the university,” attorneys Elizabeth Ainslie and Peter Vaira said in a statement.

A spokesman for Freeh did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Paterno fam-

ily, in its statement, said the coach reported the 2001 allegation from graduate assistant Mike McQueary, who told Paterno he saw Sandusky sexually assaulting a boy in the football team showers, to his superiors.

“It can certainly be asserted that Joe Paterno could have done more.

He acknowledged this himself last fall,” the statement said. “But to claim that he knowingly, intentionally protected a pedophile is false.”

The family has aggressively sought to defend the Hall of Fame coach in the face of a scandal that cost him his job and seriously diminished his legacy.

Public relations expert Jonathan Bernstein, president of Bernstein Crisis Management Inc. and the author of texts

on crisis communications, said he would have advised the Paterno family to issue a “short message of compassion” for Sandusky’s victims and then conduct its own investigation quietly if it disagreed with the conclusions of the Freeh report.

Announcing the probe now could wind up backfiring on the family, he said, because there will be pressure to release the findings publicly and “the results of the investigation could end up corroborating what was said in the Freeh report.”

Monday’s statement was issued amid calls for the removal of the famed statue of Paterno outside Beaver Stadium.

A university spokesman said Sunday there’s been no decision on the sculpture’s fate.

BRAZIL CONTINUED FROM 8

had the U.S. players out of rhythm at the beginning of the game.

James hit two free throws to open the scoring, but the Americans didn’t make their first basket until more than 2 1/2 minutes in after falling behind 7-2. Garcia had two 3-pointers and two other baskets in the early going as Brazil pushed the lead to 17-7

barely five minutes into the game.

Indicative of the way things were going for the Americans, Russell Westbrook came up with a steal near midcourt and was all alone for a layup that he somehow botched.

The Brazilians scored the final four points of the period, taking a 27-17 lead on Varejao’s jumper with 15.5 seconds left.

But the Americans

got the tempo they wanted in the second, simply wrestling the ball out of Brazilian hands to create turnovers and fast breaks.

A 12-0 run fueled by steals and layups turned an eight-point deficit into a 33-29 lead, and James powered to the basket for the last two baskets of the half as the Americans went into the break with a 37-32 lead.

Neighbors must confront family DEAR ABBY: In our condominium complex, there is one family who are disrespectful to everyone. “Sasha” allows her 11-year-old son, “Travis,” to damage people’s property, lie, steal, harass neighbors, make threats and make a lot of noise.

The police have been called many times.

I have been told Sasha has physically attacked at least two women here, and some residents say her former husband warned them that she is violent.

When neighbors -- including me -- approached Sasha, she said her son is only “having fun” and she accused us of being racist.

We feel she is using race to deflect from her poor behavior.

We believe the condo association or management company is either weak or afraid to do anything about this. The situation is unbearable.

Her son harasses senior citizens here, too. Please advise us, but do not reveal my name or location

because I am afraid of retaliation. -BEGGING F O R HELP Abigail DEAR Van Buren B E G G I N G : Dear Abby No one should have to live under such intimidating and potentially violent circumstances. Because you have been warned about Sasha’s behavior, do not confront her yourself.

Speak to the condo association board and or/ management company, tell them the conditions you are living under are intolerable, and that they MUST speak to the woman about her and her son’s behavior. There is strength in numbers, so go as a group to the next homeowner’s meeting, or sign a petition to show that you are all serious. If you own the condo, you have the ability to vote the members of the board out of office and elect officers

who will take responsibility for improving your living conditions.

Resolving this may involve the help of an attorney. And because the police are already aware of this family’s history, you may be able to get a restraining order.

DEAR ABBY: I have been living with “Daryl” for more than three years.

I am 25; Daryl is 27. He seemed very committed and affectionate, and he’s hardworking and welleducated, so I thought we had everything.

He promised me seven months ago that we would get engaged. We looked at rings together, and he told me I should leave the rest to him.

Because it has been seven months and I still don’t have a ring, I confronted him. Now he says that he “isn’t ready,” and he isn’t even sure I’m the woman he is going to marry! He says he “thinks” I am, but he doesn’t want to make any promises. He also says he loves me and doesn’t want me to move

out or break up with him.

He is willing to set up a spare bedroom for himself so we can have our space.

Abby, I feel betrayed. I was waiting for the ring and now it isn’t coming.

Should I move out? -RINGLESS IN BRIGHTON, MASS. DEAR RINGLESS: Yes. The ring isn’t what’s important, but what the ring symbolizes is. If after three years of living together your boyfriend still isn’t able to decide whether you’re the woman he’s going to marry, it appears that he’s not as committed as you thought.

If marriage is what you want, the time has indeed come to move out. It is also time to move on with your life.

JACKSON — Students in grades K-12 earned gold medals for their first place projects in the Mississippi Department of Education’s 14th Annual State Reading Fair held recently in Jackson.

The Reading Fair provides students with the opportunity to share their favorite fiction or nonfiction book through a storyboard display. The goal of the Reading Fair is to instill a lifelong love of reading in students as they experience a deeper enjoyment and pleasure from reading through participating in the process.

Students entered one of three categories: individual (Fiction or NonFiction), group project, or family. Within each category, students were judged in divisions based on grade level. Students competed in local competitions to advance to re-

gional competitions.

First place winners at each regional site advanced to the state-level reading fair where they competed in their winning category.

Local winners selected at the state-level competition include:

Individual Category Non-Fiction Winners Grades 4-8 — Third Place: Arleigh Johnson, Kossuth Elementary School, Alcorn School District Grades 9-12 — First Place: Lauren Coleman, Kossuth High School, Alcorn School District

Group Category Winners Grades K-3 — First Place: Kurt Lavender and Hayden Williams, Kossuth Elementary School, Alcorn School District

Horoscopes

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The Cancer moon has a way of stirring the soul and mixing up deep feelings, all the while making it seem by the glossy, hard surface of her crabby shell that everything is normal and perfectly intact.

The Cancer moon is like a police officer handling crowd control: “Move along, people. There’s nothing to look at here.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You never know how badly you wanted to unburden your soul until it’s done. Feelings have a way of flying from your lips. You’ll say what you never meant to say and be so glad you did.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). During the time of the Cancer sun, it’s important to remember that home is a community of sorts. Your expression of love is closely tied to the way you express yourself in the domestic environment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You could argue that “your heart isn’t in it,” although no one would listen to such an argument. There are very few who know how to put their heart into the task at hand, and the ones who do are quite busy.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). All of the rules of social conduct apply. If you think it’s too late to call someone, it probably is. Bad behavior breeds more of the same. Habits, both good and bad, have a way of rubbing off.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Letting others entertain you is fun, but it’s your own impetus that will bring you the most joy. Fly the kite of your imagination. It will take you to surprising places now. Also, it’s much cheaper than other forms of travel.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). You may feel compelled to connect others only when you have a fair understanding of where the connection might lead. Having control over what happens will seem crucial, though it may not actually be crucial.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you want to remember what you did and what happened to you in your lifetime, you are halfway to immortality. The other half is making sure to take pictures and write notes.

These are good times.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). The one you admire is in awe of you, as well. Keep in mind, though, that everyone has a different way of showing feelings, if they choose to show them at all. Be self-assured, and just do your thing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Even though you always learn more by losing than you learn by winning, every time you win there’s something in you that bursts alive. Play short games, and you’ll handle both winning and losing gracefully today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). The one who helped you in your time of need also helped you in your time of not needing. The latter help is most rare and should have more weight in your scorekeeping -- if indeed you happen to be keeping score.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Love at first glance is more common than people think.

What’s harder to understand is how people stay in love after years of gazing upon the same face. That’s the kind of love you want in your life.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A frugal approach in all you do will serve you well today. For instance, go for the basic suit. It’s a better value than all of the pricey accessories that go along with it.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 17). In the next 10 weeks, you’ll make a move you’ve been wanting to make for a very long time. Your courage will open doors.

August and September are the most romantic months, with laughter and dancing. November brings the chance to put away money for future ventures. March brings family together in shared joy. Aquarius and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 24, 38, 28 and 17.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “Does this sound insane? I think my computer is guided by otherworldly powers. It freezes when I need a break from work anyway, and certain functions don’t work at interesting times. For instance, it won’t talk to the printer, which made me have to associate with a certain very handsome co-worker.

And now I tend to let it affect my decisions.

When a website won’t load quickly, I assume it’s because I wasn’t supposed to go there, and I quickly get out.

When I can’t easily send an email, I delete the email and rethink the correspondence.

When I can’t make a purchase easily, I think I wasn’t meant to have it and I bail. The handsome co-worker has said I’m crazy, by the way.” -- Scorpio at the Office Your computer and my computer should be friends. I have had similar experiences with technology, and I love my laptop like a pet. I believe that every object has an energy about it, and when you interact with an object, often your energies start to intermingle.

Also, you imprint yourself in some way on your computer, and now your computer is starting to imprint right back on your life choices.

Letter to grandkids about â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Summertime, summertimeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Every once in a while, I write a letter to the grandkids.

They range in age from not quite two years old to the two oldest, who are in their early twenties, but who, in my mind, will always be about nine, romping around outside on a hot summer day with Thor and Loki (beloved dogs, long gone) or running upstairs, absolutely thrilled, to show Grampa John and me this beautiful box turtle....

Hello, everybody-Hope youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re having a great summer.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been biking up and down Indian Creek Road on my brother Adamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good old bike. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s barely a mile to the end and back, but when you reach the bend in the road, it goes downhill and the bike goes fast, really fast, even if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t peddle.

I keep hoping a whitetailed deer wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be star-

Ryland Bruhwiler Columnist

tled and b o u n d out of the woods right in front of my wheels.

Or maybe a stray dog.

Or a troupe of turkeys.

This is not likely, but it

is possible.

However, this has never happened, so lately Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been racing down that hill.

Full speed. No braking. It is so fun.

Unfortunately, when you reach the bottom, you better start peddling hard because the next hill is coming up. As my friend Ms. Vergie says, you have to pull the hill. I like the way she says that.

And about halfway up, you gotta stand up so you can throw your weight on the pedals because that hill is steep all the way to the neighborsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; garden at

the top. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where I turn around and ride back home.

The other day they were out in their garden digging up potatoes. As I rode up, I said Hey there! And they said Want some potatoes?

I said, Oh, no, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay, thanks anyway. They said, We have plenty. We have more than plenty!

So I rode one mile home with a little sack of potatoes and one eggplant dangling from my handlebars.

Last night I washed the dried mud off two of the potatoes and baked them with cheddar cheese on top for Grampa John and me. They were delicious, and I thought of the nice neighbors who insisted on sharing their potatoes.

Yesterday I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get around to biking. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember why. Maybe I was busy. Maybe I was lazy.

But today I got my bike out and said goodbye to Cricker the Labrador

and Saber the Doberman as I passed their pen and headed off down our driveway.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fun riding down to the gate. The gravel is too thick. Your wheels slish and slosh grinding through the loose rocks that slow up your bike and sometimes make you slip.

I grip the handlebars and steer hard. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like that falling feeling.

When I get to the road, I prop my bike on a tree so I can use both hands to open the chain. Then I roll the bike through the gate and hold it up with one hand while lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m closing the heavy gate behind me with the other. This maneuver is awkward and tedious.

But then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m back on the bike and rolling along the blacktop. The road is a little bumpy, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay.

In just a few peddles, I am zooming.

It is so fun to feel the wind on my face.

Phuuuuuu, phuuuuuu. I like listening to the whir of the wheels on the road.

I love the dappled light and shadows that the trees make with the morning sun shining through their leaves.

At first the woods form a dark tunnel because their branches meet overhead.

Then you sort of burst out into the sun. On the north side is the big wide field where our neighbor Glen grows pumpkins.

On the south side is a long grassy field where Grampaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horses graze. Two round brown horses. One tall skinny grey. They lift their heads to watch me ped-ped-peddling by. Hi, Charlie! Hi, Blue!

So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m zooming along this morning and suddenly thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a black blur on my left. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cricker!

That bad Cricker has oozled his way through the gate of his pen, raced after my bike, and caught

up. He is panting hard.

His pink tongue is lolling.

And, of course, he is grinning.

He is also a little worried. I can tell by the way he rolls his eyeballs at me. He knows I do not want him to follow me out on the road like this.

He knows Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably be mad. And turn around.

And make him Go Home!

Am I mad? I should be mad. A car could come along and squash him like a bug.

But he is so happy I just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be mad. I decide to just be happy. We race to the end of the road and back with the wind whipping through our hair.

Then we do it again.

What an entertaining web â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Amazing Spider-Manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; weaves The Amazing Spider-Man, PG-13, *****, Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Martin Sheen, Sally Field; Columbia Pictures; Director Marc Webb; length â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 136 minutes This is a new beginning for Spider-Man and what an outstanding launch it delivers. This remake captures the audience immediately within its web of entertainment.

Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) is a young boy when his parents mysteriously leave him with his Uncle Ben and Aunt May played by Martin Sheen and Sally Field. His story develops slowly, but with an extremely engaging plot. I really enjoyed the time taken to develop the story. Taking time to

broaden the characters of the individuals involved gives the m o v i e Terry m o r e Burns depth and engaging Movie Critic dialogue.

Postponing the action for a more in-depth plot was a good idea.

In high school we see the young Parker as a shy geek vulnerable to bullies.

Unfortunately, the scene involving a bully is a sad look at what actually happens on some school campuses everyday. Though the final results seldom occur as demonstrated in the movie, sometimes bullies become friends with the victims.

Peter has a crush on Gwen (Emma Stone) who is also a student in the same high school. He is shy so they have trouble connecting. The two soon realize charisma for each other has taken over both of them. Things, however, become a little complicated when Peter begins using his Spider-Man talents to help eliminate evil. Most of us know how Spider-Man becomes the super hero he is.

Apparently some people still experience arachnophobia when the Spider-Man begins his gymnastic antics around tall buildings.

Parker meets a friend of his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Dr. Connors (Rhys Ifans).

He does a little too much experimenting with scientific items and

causes chaos in the city.

This keeps Spider-Man busy stopping his evil ways as Dr. Connors becomes a hazardous, lively lizard.

Gwenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father, Stacy (Denis Leary) is a police chief. It turns out people do not take it lightly when someone swings around the city in a scary outfit. The conflict between Spider-Man and the police chief becomes a little complicated.

Never fear Spider-Man is here and ready to fight not only the bad guys, but for his new found love â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or is he?

In â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Amazing Spider-Man,â&#x20AC;? the title character finds he is feared by many bad guys, as well as many ordinary citizens.

Citizens are afraid of him because he is different.

The movie has a lot of sad situations as the young Peter Parker deals with his newfound powers and tragedy.

Spider-Man uses his talents and abilities to fight for justice. He swings through the Concrete Jungle of the large city stopping the bad guys from hurting the innocent.

It may remind audiences of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tarzanâ&#x20AC;? movies where Tarzan swings through the jungle filled with dangerous animals.

Spider Manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jungle is filled with dangerous people.

It is a jungle out there, but Spider-Man is winning.
