Corinth requests more inmate labor BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Facing a labor shortage in the street department, the Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen is requesting more inmate workers. Sheriff Charles Rinehart ap-
peared before the board Tuesday to discuss the availability of inmate laborers. While the county has averaged about 65 to 68 of the “green and whites” available to work in the community in the past, the number is declining since the sentenc-
ing reform law recently went into effect, with only 50 available earlier this week. Rinehart hopes to see the numbers rebound. Despite the decrease, he offered assurance that the city and county governments will get priority in allo-
cating the available workers. As a result, some groups may have to give up an inmate laborer. “I know we’re going to hear from the city park, we’re going to hear from the SportsPlex, we’re going to hear from the animal shelter, but it is what it
is,” said Rinehart. “The city and county will be the priority on the workers out there.” He said the center will try to provide at least 15 for the city. On Tuesday, 11 were directed to Please see LABOR | 2A

Challenge brings cerebral palsy awareness BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Lane Bryant is whipping some “butt.” All the 9-year-old needs is a few pies. Bryant, the son of James and Jamie Bryant, is bringing awareness to cerebral palsy through the “Whipping CP’s Butt 1 Pie at a Time Challenge.” “So many people in Corinth have accepted the challenge,” said Jamie Bryant, Lane’s
mother. “We are trying to get the awareness out anyway we can.” According to Jamie Bryant, most people do not know about cerebral palsy. “There is no funding for cerebral palsy research,” said Jamie. Despite being the most common motor disability in children affecting over 17,000,000 people worldwide, the awareness of cerebral palsy remains
very low. It is estimated that 1 in 323 children and over 800,000 Americans are impacted by cerebral palsy. The Bryant family kicked off the local challenge on Aug. 24 after being contacted by a woman in Rhode Island. Corinth policeman Fred Gooch took his challenge a step further.

The Corinth Board of Aldermen voted this week to rename Dunlap Street. It exists only in about a two-block stretch between Cass Street and Martin Luther King Drive, and it will change to Droke Road to be consistent with the street’s name east of MLK Drive. Ward 4 Alderman J.C. Hill said the change only affects one house that is not vacant or slated to be demolished. The city will notify the 911 office so that the appropriate address changes will be made. In other items before the board this week, a motion to purchase 88 street / stop signs with decorative posts for the downtown area died for lack of a second. The lower of two bids was Nickels Signs and Graphics at $47,696. The other bidder was Creative Awning & Sign of Ripley. The 24-inch reflective stop sign portion would be supplied by the city. The proposed street name signs were powder-coated gloss black with white reflective text. The signs would meet updated retroreflectivity requirements of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. “We are under a mandate to begin this process at some
point, and I believe it would be a good idea to begin in our downtown business area,” said Alderman Andrew Labas, who made the motion. While meeting the new standards, Street Commissioner Philip Verdung said the signs would also improve the aesthetics of the downtown signage and would be more resistant to damage and vandalism. With the existing signs, “We’re constantly trying to straighten them out and fix them,” he said. A couple of aldermen expressed reservations about the purchase. “I’m totally for doing some, but I don’t know if I’m ready to commit to 88 signs,” said Alderman Ben Albarracin. Mayor Tommy Irwin said the signs would help promote investment in downtown. The board also rescinded the recent sale of a 1986 fire truck to the town of Glen. Fire Chief Billy Briggs III told the board that he was informed the city cannot sell it for use as a fire truck because of requirements tied to the grant funding that was used for its purchase. The city will return the $10,000 purchase price to Glen and consider other options for disposal of the ladder truck.
Ex-nurse transforms her wire into jewelry BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Sue Harrison spent her working life helping others feel better, and now she’s helping them look better. The retired nurse from Ripley enjoys making jewelry using the copper out of electrical wiring to bring a little something different to necklaces and bracelets. She is a season seller at the Green Market, which is back this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Crossroads Museum in the C.A.R.E. Garden green space. “I got interested in wire jewelry and I bought some books,” said Harrison, who was a nurse for 20 years with the hospital in Jackson, Tenn. “I bought one that was about copper and I made every design in that book.”
Preparing the copper is a time-consuming process, but she has fun making the fashionable accessories. “I strip the wire and then you have a tool that you straighten the wire with and then you form it either freehand or with a jig,” she said. She also cleans it and sometimes adds a coating to help prevent tarnish before transforming it into a necklace. Some of her designs feature beads. They range from casual to formal styles, and she is partial to the sparkly look. Harrison has been a regular at the Green Market for the last two years along with her husband, Eddie, who also sells handmade items. An opportunity for artisans,

Doctors pushing for statewide smoking ban BY EVELINA BURNETT Mississippi Public Broadcasting
JACKSON — Mississippi doctors want to convince legislators to put a statewide smoking ban on the ballot. Eighty-six Mississippi cities have adopted smoke-free ordinances. That covers about 25 percent of the state’s population. But Pascagoula doctor Steve Demetropolous, immediate past president of the Mississippi State Medical Association, says smoke-free rules in cities aren’t enough. “Because Mississippi is a predominantly rural state, even if we have every community in the state covered, we’ll only
have about 45% of the state covered,” he said. The medical association has attempted, unsuccessfully, to prod lawmakers into passing a statewide smoking ban. That’s why they’re now hoping to gather enough signatures to convince legislators to take the issue directly to voters. State Sen. Brice Wiggins, R-Pascagoula, a member of the Senate Public Health Committee, introduced bill in the Senate last session. He said he’s in favor of improving the health of all Mississippians but, “I am hesitant to force regulations on to private businesses. So what the state medical association
is doing by taking it to the people is a good thing.” Surveys by the medical association have found wide support for smokefree laws. But there’s likely to be pushback from some bars and restaurants, as well as from some of the 25 percent of Mississippians who smoke. John Rabalais of Pass Christian, for example, believes a ban would be bad for businesses and unfair to smokers. “When we going to outlaw McDonald’s — look what that does to you, but that’s all right,” he says. “How do you like breathing in the gas fumes when you fill up your car, you think that
doesn’t harm you? One of the things wrong with everything around anymore is that if ‘I don’t do it, you can’t do it.’ That’s what’s happening to society right now.” Demetropolous said studies show the dangers of secondhand smoke and argues there are already regulations to protect the public’s food and water; a smoke-free ordinance, he said does the same thing for the air. “We think this is the single-most important thing we can do to improve the health of our fellow Mississippians,” he said. “And the important thing is that it doesn’t cost us any money, and something that, if we flip
the switch tomorrow, you can automatically start seeing decreases in heart attacks, strokes, COPD, asthma and pneumonia.” The medical association is hoping to gather at least 20,000 signatures, through petitions in doctor’s offices and other places, to show legislators the level of support. Under state law, after registering a ballot initiative with the secretary of state’s office, the official ballot title and summary are prepared by the attorney general’s office. Initiatives are only valid for one year, during which time a petition must be circulated to gather signatures to place the measure on the next statewide gen-
eral election ballot. According to state law, for an initiative measure to be placed on the ballot, a minimum of 107,216 certified signatures must be gathered with at least 21,443 certified signatures from each of the five congressional districts as they existed in the year 2000. Signatures must be certified by county circuit clerks. A completed petition is filed with the secretary of state’s office. Not only must an initiative receive a majority of the total votes cast, it must also receive more than 40 percent of the total votes cast in that election.

the city. Mayor Tommy Irwin said the laborers are desperately needed to help the city avoid hiring workers, which he does not believe would be well-received by citizens. During recent budget discussions, Street Commissioner Philip Verdung said his department needs more workers in order to maintain services. In three years, he said, the number of inmates has decreased from 20 to as low as five. The department has paid staff totaling 44, and several

In other business before the city board this week, aldermen received the planning commission’s recommendations for changes to the Old Town District, including limiting properties to one- and two-family residences, considering a neighborhood conservation district overlay, and considering expanding the boundaries of the overlay beyond the Old Town District area. The matter was not
discussed and will be considered at a later time. On another recommendation from the planning commission/ board of adjustment, aldermen approved a subdivision plat and variance that will allow Bryan Price to build a pair of spec homes on property that will be split into two at the corner of Taylor Street and Shiloh Road. A variance is needed because the southernmost of the two parcels would have 8,287 square feet in an R-1A zone, which requires a 10,000-squarefoot lot.

Natchez Trace superintendent speaks at Aububon meeting BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
Guests at the next Audubon Nature Group meeting are in for a treat as National Park Service’s Natchez Trace Parkway Superintendent Mary Risser serves as the guest speaker. The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16 in the auditorium of the Corinth Library. “Superintendent Risser will discuss her experiences in the National Park Service,” said the group’s Steven E. Icardi. “Anyone interested in activities involving wild birds or nature should attend this meeting.” A 32-year career employee of the National Park Service (NPS), Risser’s public service career began in 1979 when she served as the Assistant Field Representative for U.S. Senator Richard S. Schweiker in Central Pennsylvania, followed by a stint in the Washington office of the Peace Corps. She began her career
w i t h NPS in 1 9 8 3 when s h e joined the office of E m ployee a n d Risser Labor Relations in Washington D.C.’s National Capitol Region. While on a ski trip to Jackson Hole in March of 1984, Risser was inspired to move west, where she applied for the first job she encountered at Grand Teton National Park. Risser came to the Trace after serving as Superintendent of the 210, 000-acre Dinosaur National Monument from 2004–2014. During her time at the monument, she made the controversial decision to close the old quarry Visitors Center due to issues with its structural stability. She then secured the funding and oversaw the
construction of the new Quarry Visitor Center and the revitalization of the Quarry Exhibit Hall which houses and protects a 100-foot long by 50-foot high wall of almost 1,500 dinosaur fossils. Risser’s reorganization of the Paleontology program resulted in the park leveraging $200,000 into well over $1 million in research over the past five years. She also supported research examining the conditions of the parks two rivers – the Green and Yampa, the only remaining free-flowing, large tributary in the Colorado River System. Before coming to Natchez Trace Parkway, Risser was the Acting Deputy Regional Director and Chief of Staff for the Intermountain Region of the National Park Service, which is made up of 91 parks. Three of her months served were during the government shutdown.

Across the Region Qualifying deadline nears BOONEVILLE — A Friday deadline is looming for candidates to qualify for school board and election commissioner posts. Former officeholder Randy Hugh Maness remains the only candidate to qualify for the fifth district school board seat, the only school board position on the ballot this year. Incumbent Lisa Slack has announced she does not plan to seek reelection to the post due to family obligations. Maness previously served two terms on the board before coming in second to Slack in a four-way race for the position in 2008. Potential candidates have until 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 5, to
qualify to run for the school board post and two special elections for county election commissioner. The races will appear on the Nov. 4 general election ballot. Chris Lindley remains the lone candidate in the special election for first district election commissioner. Greg Knight and C.G. “Roddy� Jackson have qualified in the second district. Both elections are necessary due to the previous commissioners stepping down prior to the conclusion of their current terms.
Woman dies in accident SELMER, Tenn. — A 30-yearold Adamsville woman died in an accident Wednesday morning two miles east of Selmer
on U.S. Hwy. 64, according to a report by the Tennessee Highway Patrol. The fatal wreck happened around 9 a.m. Johnna S. Chappell was traveling eastbound on Hwy. 64 when her GMC Envoy crossed into the emergency lane and struck the guard rail. Chappell then overcorrected crossing into the median and into the westbound land, striking an 18-wheeler in the side. The driver of the 18-wheeler carrying a load of steel was David G. Russom, 49, of Pinson, according to the accident report by Tennessee State Trooper Michael Richardson. Chappell was not wearing a seatbelt and Trooper Richardson believes that would have made a difference. Russom
was wearing his seatbelt at the time of the accident.
Teen charged in break-in RIPLEY — A 15 year-old male was recently charged by the Ripley Police Department in connection with the break-in and vandalism of Ripley Middle School. Video evidence was shown to the suspects parents who admitted the footage did appear to be of their son.

He denies any involvement in the incident.
Childers pushes debates with Cochran BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi voters deserve to hear U.S. Senate candidates debate issues such as the minimum wage and the availability of health care, the Democratic nominee said Thursday. Former U.S. Rep. Travis Childers said he’s challenging six-term Republican Sen. Thad Cochran to debate him four times before the Nov. 4 election — once in each of Mississippi’s congressional districts. Cochran campaign spokesman Jordan Russell responded that the campaign will consider all scheduling requests. Cochran did not debate his Republican primary challenger and has said voters can compare candidates’ records without seeing them on the same stage. Childers, who won a north Mississippi congressional seat in 2008
and was defeated in 2010, said he has accepted invitations for a Senate campaign debate at the University of Mississippi in Oxford and at the Mississippi College School of Law in Jackson. He said dates have not been set. “Unlike in the Republican primary, calls to debate cannot go unanswered. The issues are too important,� Childers said Thursday outside the MC law school. Russell said Cochran keeps a busy Senate schedule and has campaigned in 42 of the 82 counties in the past few weeks. “Obviously, it’s not up to one candidate to dictate the other candidate’s schedule, and I ‘m sure everyone understands that,� Russell said. Childers, who has also campaigned extensively, was asked how he and Cochran compare on issues.
“We differ on the 300,000 people here in the state of Mississippi who have no access to health care nor hopes of getting any. We differ on making minimum wage a living wage,� Childers said. Republican state officials have opposed expanding Medicaid, which is an option under the federal health overhaul that President Barack Obama signed into law in 2010. Officials have said up to 300,000 Mississippi residents could qualify. Cochran and Childers both voted against the
federal law. The decision about expanding Medicaid is up to state lawmakers, not federal ones. Meanwhile, it remained unclear when state Sen. Chris McDaniel would announce whether he will try to revive his lawsuit that sought to overturn Cochran’s Republican primary victory. Certified results show Cochran won the June 24 GOP runoff by 7,667 votes, but McDaniel’s lawsuit claimed the runoff was spoiled by voting irregularities. McDaniel’s camp had said he would announce
Wednesday whether he will ask the Mississippi Supreme Court to reverse a judge’s dismissal of the case. He made no announcement Wednesday or by Thursday afternoon. Judge Hollis McGehee dismissed McDaniel’s lawsuit Friday, saying it was filed too late. McGehee announced his ruling from the bench, filing his written order late Thursday in Jones County. After the written order is filed, McDaniel has 30 days to appeal McGehee’s ruling to the Supreme Court.

Resisting the Islamic state’s demand for submission The Islamic State and the other advocates of Shariah law are growing rapidly, along with their zeal to eradicate or convert all “infidels.” For those who are asleep at the wheel, in the opinion of these fanatics, Ben most of Western civilization – Carson including America – fits into the infidel category. Columnist I normally encourage conversation and compromise where possible, but how does one negotiate or compromise with someone who desires your elimination? Maybe if you meet some of their demands, they will only dismember you or kill you more slowly. Obviously, the expansion of groups like the Islamic State represents an existential threat to our own nation and our way of life. If ever there was a time to work together for selfpreservation, it is now. There really is no time to squabble about who was right and who was wrong regarding our activities in the Middle East. Our enemies will use every opportunity to divide us and distract us, which will make their job of destroying us much easier. In order to prevail in the war on terror, we must have an overall strategy, the goal of which is annihilation of the terrorists, as opposed to simply winning battles with them here and there. This means paying much more attention to military preparedness, both offensive and defensive. That means significantly increasing our covert operations, without blabbing to the world about what we will or will not do. It means cultivating strong and trusting relationships with our allies and never leaving them to worry about abandonment for political reasons. It means helping other countries in the region to realize that they, too, will soon be targets of the Islamic State, which will radically alter their comfortable lives. When it comes to the elimination of those trying to destroy us, we have to be smart enough to realize that we must have airtight borders to prevent easy access for terrorists. Some say this is too difficult. I guarantee that it is easier than trying to rebuild a nation that has been destroyed because we thought logical defense was too hard. There is no question that unpleasantries brought about by our own forces will be necessary to accomplish our goals and defeat terrorism, but you cannot win a politically correct war. Our enemies’ desire to establish a caliphate is no joke. Their convert-or-die doctrine parallels some of the social philosophies enforced by the political-correctness police in this country. Either you accept their interpretation of what is moral and correct, or the name calling starts, and they attempt to destroy your business or reputation. We despise the Islamic State, but do not see the same ugliness in our own tactics. The truth hurts, and it is much easier to ignore it or try to demonize its bearer. Unless integrity, courage and common sense result in the ability to honestly examine our own hypocrisy, we will lose the war of ideas and identity, and the land of the free will become a distant memory. I’ve been privileged to get to know some incredibly smart and talented military leaders, as well as covert operators and innovative engineers. I am confident that with our talent and faith, not only can we win this war, but we can show the world a better way. (Ben S. Carson is professor emeritus of neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins University and author of the new book “One Nation: What We Can All Do To Save America’s Future.”)

Whether it’s a cooling sprinkle or a summer squall, rain blends with the wonderful sounds from open doorways and blasting boom boxes. Rain here has rhythm. My friend John and I set out in one of those atmospheric, rhythmic rains to see Holt Cemetery, a potter’s field near City Park that’s due to get a $450,000 renovation. On the day we visit, big lights already are being added, but so far anything new and expensive looks out of place in the overgrown, hectic field of bones and boxes. This cemetery, established 1879, was and is for the burial of the poor, mostly African-American citizens who don’t have anywhere else to
spend eternity. Instead of the customary New Orleans aboveg r o u n d tombs, most Rheta of these Johnson are in the ground. At Columnist least they were at first. The dearly departed are buried in wooden caskets that rot over time, allowing families, if they wish, to reuse plots for generations. Many of the markers are hand-built with phonetic spelling. People are gone, but not “furgotun.” Somehow the sincerity is greater than in the most pristine perpetual care plots. More hand-written and hands-on. There is a touching aspect to the haphazard array of graves in tall grass. In the – until recently – unkempt cemetery is ample evidence of routine visitors – toys, flowers, rocks and shells. You can’t walk far without stumbling across physical
reminders that the dead here, though mostly poor, are loved beyond life. John wants to show me the monuments for Charles Joseph “Buddy” Bolden. Bolden was the great cornetist who many say blew New Orleans’ various musical forms from the past into the future, a blend eventually called jazz. Bolden died in 1931 and was buried in Holt, but nobody knows exactly where that grave is. Still, musicians make pilgrimages, looking for inspiration and paying respects. “The blowingest man since Gabriel,” Jelly Roll Morton said of Bolden. That’s quoted on one monument, the one thought to be near where Bolden was buried. Across the way is the tomb of Jessie Hill, who died in 1996. If you don’t know the name, you might remember his classic: “Oooh Poo Pah Doo.” “And I won’t stop tryin’ ‘til I create a disturbance in your mind. ...” An empty bottle of gin
and some red, white and blue jetsam from July Fourth indicated recent visitors. Hill’s grandsons also are musicians, including Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews, still making this great old city rock. A popular city singer called Lips – of the band Lips and the Trips – says she first visited Holt Cemetery on a Bike Pub Crawl. “I’d always wanted to go there, Patti Smith announced one night at Tipitina’s that she went to see Buddy Bolden’s gravesite.” Or where it might have been. And so they come, despite – or maybe partly because – the ghosts making music here no longer care about municipal regret, or socio-economic standing, or weeds that reach your knees. They are jamming in a Better Place, still creating disturbances in our mind.

Is Mitt Romney really a loser for life? Unlikely as it might seem, Mitt Romney actually put it best. “I have looked at what happens to anybody in this country who loses as the nominee of their party,” he says. “They become a loser for life.” Here he makes a gesture with his right hand, forming his thumb and index finger into an “L” and holding it up to his forehead as if it were a branding iron. “We just brutalize whoever loses,” Romney says. “I know that. I know that.” This is from the documentary “Mitt,” which was released this year and covers Mitt Romney’s 2008 and 2012 campaigns. Romney was aware that if he ran for the nomination in 2008 and failed to get it, this would not be fatal. Numerous failed nominees have gone on to get the nomination in future contests. But if one gets the nomination and then fails to win the presidency, that is a different story. Republican Thomas Dewey did it, losing in both 1944 and 1948. Democrat Adlai Stevenson did it, losing in both 1952 and 1956. And Richard Nixon did it, losing the presidency in 1960, but winning it in 1968. But this is ancient history in political terms. In mod-

ern times, if you get your party’s nomination and then lose the general election, noRoger body wants Simon to hear from you again. Columnist “ M i k e Dukakis is mowing lawns,” Romney says. But Romney enters the fray anyway, losing the nomination in 2008, winning the nomination in 2012, but losing the general election. So Romney should be, by his own analysis, a “loser for life.” But odd things are happening. Republican candidates have been asking him to stump for them in the November elections, and he has been glad to oblige. A CNN/ORC poll released in late July asked people whom they would vote for if the 2012 election were held again. Romney won by 9 percentage points, 53 percent to 44 percent. (In the actual election, Romney lost by 3.9 percentage points.) One can dismiss this as typical buyer’s remorse: Presidents never quite live up to expectations, and challengers always look better in retrospect. But one
senior Republican strategist told me dryly: “I don’t remember anyone urging John Kerry to run for president again after he lost.” Is anybody really urging Romney to run again, however? Iowans seem to like the idea. A recent Suffolk University poll of Iowa caucus-goers showed Romney topping the field with 35 percent and Mike Huckabee an almost invisible second with just 9 percent. “I’d love to run for president; I loved running for president,” Romney told radio talk-show host Hugh Hewitt last week. “Had I believed I would actually be best positioned to beat Hillary Clinton, then I would be running.” Romney says, however, that some player to be named later could be a better candidate. “I actually believe that someone new that is not defined yet, someone who perhaps is from the next generation, will be able to catch fire, potentially build a movement, and be able to beat Hillary Clinton,” Romney said. Republicans are already looking past their biggest weakness -- the current Republican field -- to what they believe will be their biggest strength: Hillary Clinton as the standard bearer for Obama’s third term.

“I think Hillary is going to own the Obama record,” Stuart Stevens, who was Romney’s chief strategist in 2012, told me. “In many ways, it looks like 2016 will be a referendum on Obama in the same way 2008 was a referendum on (George W.) Bush.” Hillary Clinton is no dope, however. She will find a way to distance herself from Obama where she can. But this plays right into the Romney game plan, said one former top Romney aide. “Hillary Clinton doesn’t want to be Barack Obama? Fine,” said the aide. “The person who is most not Barack Obama is Mitt Romney. If he decided to run, he’d have a good chance.” Romney laid out his own scenario for running. “Let’s say all the guys that were running all came together and said, ‘Hey, we’ve decided we can’t do it. You must do it,’” Romney said in the interview with Hewitt. “That’s the one out of a million we’re thinking about.” One out of a million might seem like very long odds to you and me. But what’s a million to Mitt Romney? (Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico. com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)

Surgery on sick dog yields 43 ½ socks PORTLAND, Ore. — The 3-year-old Great Dane was miserable and retching when its owners rushed him to a northwest Portland emergency animal hospital. X-rays showed a stomach full of “a large quantity of foreign material.â€? Nearly two hours of surgery later, Dr. Ashley Magee had the answer — the dog had consumed 43 ½ socks. DoveLewis Emergency Animal Hospital spokeswoman Shawna Harch said it’s perhaps the strangest case in the hospital’s history, The Oregonian reported. So strange that the hospital entered last February’s tale, complete with X-rays, in an annual contest sponsored by the vet magazine, Veterinary Practice News, and won a prize. Fittingly enough, the contest is called “They Ate WHAT?â€? Even stranger. The $1,500 first place winner was a Plano, Texas, animal hospital that treated an exotic frog that ate more than 30 small ornamental rocks from its cage. Â
Justice Department to probe Ferguson WASHINGTON — The Justice Department launched a broad investigation Thursday into the police department in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting last month of an unarmed black 18-year-old by a white police officer. The investigation, which goes beyond an existing federal probe into the Aug. 9 shooting, will look for patterns of discrimination within the predominantly white department and focus on how officers use force, search and arrest suspects, and treat inmates at the city jail. The police department said it welcomed the investigation. In announcing the action, Attorney General Eric Holder, who visited the St. Louis suburb two weeks ago, said he and his department had heard numerous concerns from people there about police practices, a history of “deep mistrust� of law enforcement and a lack of diversity on the police force. The inquiry is part of a broader Justice Department effort to investigate troubled police departments and, when pervasive problems are found, institute changes. The department says it has investigated more than 20 police departments in the past five years, more than twice the number of cases opened in the previous five years. Besides the investigation into the Ferguson police force, the Justice Department says it will also work with the St. Louis County police department, which trains officers from Ferguson and other local departments, to review the use of force, the handling of mass demonstrations and other aspects of policing.
Genetic quirk made coffee, study says WASHINGTON — Scientists have woken up and smelled the coffee — and analyzed its DNA. They found that what we love about coffee — the caffeine — is a genetic quirk, not related to the caffeine in chocolate or tea. “It’s an accident that has been frozen in place very likely by the influence of natural selection,â€? says University of Buffalo evolutionary biologist Victor Albert. He and more than 60 other researchers from around the world mapped out the genetic instruction book of java. Their results were published Thursday in the journal Science. Albert says researchers discovered that caffeine developed separately in the coffee, tea and chocolate because it is in different genes in different areas of plants’ genomes. But once coffee mutated to have caffeine — not just in the bean, there’s even more in the leaves — it turned out to be a good thing for the plant, Albert says. Bugs don’t chew on the coffee plant leaves because they don’t like the caffeine, but pollinators like bees do. “So pollinators come back for more — just like we do for our cups of coffee,â€? Albert says, admitting he also likes the buzz. Â
Court grants plea to re-hear case WASHINGTON — The federal appeals court in Washington threw out
Friday, September 5, 2014
Across the State
a ruling Thursday that called into question the subsidies that help millions of low- and middleincome people afford their premiums under the president’s health care law. The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia granted an Obama administration request to have its full complement of judges re-hear a challenge to regulations that allow health insurance tax credits under the Affordable Care Act for consumers in all 50 states. The announcement diminishes the prospect of Supreme Court review of the issue in the near term. The initial 2-1 appeals court ruling in Washington came out the same day that a panel of appellate judges in Richmond, Virginia, unanimously sided with the administration on the same issue. The health law’s opponents had hoped that the split rulings would lead the high court to take up the issue soon. Now, the argument in the federal courthouse just a few blocks from the Supreme Court will take place on December 17. If the full court comes out in favor of the administration, the prospect of Supreme Court involvement would be greatly reduced. On the other hand, if the full Washington court essentially reinstates the original decision, then the Supreme Court would almost certainly weigh in. Under that scenario, the justices probably would not render a decision until the spring of 2016.

Natchez asks state to donate property NATCHEZ — Natchez attorney Walter Brown is preparing legislation on behalf of the city asking the Mississippi Legislature to donate the “bean fieldâ€? property to the city. Land that was originally set aside for the southern terminus of the Natchez Trace Parkway was given back to the State of Mississippi by the federal government in August. The city currently has a 25-year lease on 37 of the 67 acres conveyed the bean field, next to Natchez High School and has eyed the property since 1999 for possible recreational use. Another portion of land that was originally set aside for the terminus, next to Walmart, would be advertised and sold through the Mississippi secretary of state’s office. Â

State Senate leader Brown hospitalized JACKSON — Mississippi Senate President Pro Tempore Terry Brown of Columbus is hospitalized after having “very aggressive treatment for cancer.� That’s according to Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who released a statement Thursday, a day after visiting the 64-year-old lawmaker in the hospital. The statement did not disclose where Brown is hospitalized, and it said Brown’s family is requesting privacy. He was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2013. As president pro tem since early 2012, Republican Brown has presided over the 52-member
state Senate when the lieutenant governor is away. Â
Charter school board votes on 1st director JACKSON — An official with Louisiana’s Recovery School District is likely to be the first executive director of Mississippi’s Charter School Authorizer Board. The board voted 5-0 Thursday to hire Marian Schutte, pending approval by the state Personnel Board. If that board approves, Schutte could start work by early November, in time to help the board reach decisions over the second year of charter school applications. Earlier this year, the board gave the green light for one school to open in Jackson. Schutte has handled charter school authorization and monitoring for the Louisiana agency, which has taken over a number of schools, mostly in New Orleans.

Family, friends mourn Rivers BY LYNN ELBER Associated Press
Joan Rivers, the raucous, acid-tongued comedian who crashed the male-dominated realm of late-night talk shows and turned Hollywood red carpets into danger zones for badly dressed celebrities, died Thursday. She was 81. Rivers died at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, surrounded by family and close friends, daughter Melissa Rivers said. She was hospitalized Aug. 28 after going into cardiac arrest in a doctor’s office following a routine procedure. The New York state health department is investigating the circumstances. “My mother’s greatest joy in life was to make people laugh,” Melissa Rivers said. “Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon.” Under the immobile, plastic surgery-crafted veneer that became Joan Rivers’ unapologetic trademark as she aged, her wit remained as vibrantly raw and unruly as when she first broke her way into a comedy world belonging largely to men. In a 2010 “Late Show” interview, David Letterman broached the plastic surgery issue: “You don’t look exactly like the Joan Rivers I used to know.” Rivers was unapologetic. “Our business is so youthful. ... You do little tweaks, and I think if a woman wants to look good, or a man, do it,” she said. “It’s not about anybody else.” Fashion and acting were the early dreams of the woman who grew up as a self-described “fatty,” but it was humor that paid the bills and ultimately made Rivers a star. She refused to cede the spotlight as the decades passed, working vigorously until her death. “I have never wanted to
“My mother’s greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon.” Melissa Rivers Daughter be a day less than I am,” she said in a 2013 interview with The Associated Press. “People say, ‘I wish I were 30 again.’ Nahhh! I’m very happy HERE. It’s great. It gets better and better. And then, of course, we die,” she quipped. Rivers was a scrapper, rebuilding her career and life after a failed attempt to make it as a late-night host was followed closely by her husband’s suicide. Rivers’ style was harddriving from the start and her material only got sharper. She was ready to slam anyone. A favored target was Elizabeth Taylor’s weight (“her favorite food is seconds”), but the comedian kept current with verbal assaults on Miley Cyrus and other newcomers. With her raspy voice and brash New York accent, Rivers turned the red carpet of the Oscars, Emmys and Golden Globes into a stalking ground for E! Entertainment. Her familiar query — “Who are you wearing?” — would quickly give way to such snarky commentary as her assessment of Adele’s Grammy outfit: The singer looked like she was sitting on a teapot. The barbs could turn inward as well, with Rivers mocking everything from her proclaimed lack of sex appeal (“my best birth control now is just to leave the lights on”) to her own mortality. In 2007, Rivers and her partner-in-slime, daughter Melissa, were dropped by their new employer, the TV Guide Channel,
and replaced by actress Lisa Rinna. But the Rivers’ women found new success on E! with “Fashion Police,” which Rivers hosted and her daughter produced. Joan Rivers never relaxed, always looking for the next and better punchline. “The trouble with me is, I make jokes too often,” she told the AP in 2013, just days after the death of her older sister. “I was making jokes yesterday at the funeral home. That’s how I get through life. Life is SO difficult — everybody’s been through something! But you laugh at it, it becomes smaller.” She had faced true crisis in the mid-1980s. Edgar Rosenberg, her husband of 23 years, committed suicide in 1987 after she was fired from her Fox talk show, which he produced. The show’s failure was a major factor, Rivers said. Rosenberg’s suicide also temporarily derailed her career. “Nobody wants to see someone whose husband has killed himself do comedy four weeks later,” she told The New York Times in 1990. Rivers had originally entered show business with the dream of being an actress, but comedy was a way to pay the bills while she auditioned for dramatic roles. “Somebody said, ‘You can make six dollars standing up in a club,’” she told the AP, “and I said, ‘Here I go!’ It was better than typing all day.” In the early 1960s, comedy was a man’s game
and the only women comics she could look to were Totie Fields and Phyllis Diller. But she worked her way up from local clubs in New York until, in 1965, she landed her big break on “The Tonight Show” after numerous rejections. “God, you’re funny. You’re going to be a star,” host Johnny Carson told her after she had rocked the audience with laughter. Her nightclub career prospered and by late that year she had recorded her first comedy album, “Joan Rivers Presents Mr. Phyllis and Other Funny Stories.” Her personal life picked up as well: She met British producer Rosenberg and they married after a four-day courtship. Rivers hosted a morning talk show on NBC in 1968 and, the next year, made her Las Vegas debut with female comedians still a relative rarity. “To control an audience is a very masculine thing,” Rivers told the Los Angeles Times in 1977. “The minute a lady is in any form of power, they (the public) totally strip away your femininity — which isn’t so. Catherine the Great had a great time.” In 1978, she wrote, directed and co-starred in the movie “Rabbit Test.” It had an intriguing premise — Billy Crystal as a man who gets pregnant — but was poorly received. In 1983, though, she scored a coup when she was named permanent guest host for Carson on “Tonight.” Although she drew good ratings, NBC hesitated in renewing her contract three years later. Fledgling network Fox jumped in with an offer of her own late-night show. She launched “The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers” on Fox in 1986, but the venture lasted just a season and came at a heavy price: Carson cut ties with her when she surprised him by becoming a competitor.
Former governor, wife guilty of public corruption BY LARRY O’DELL Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. — Former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell and his wife were convicted Thursday of taking bribes to promote a dietary supplement in a corruption case that derailed the career of the onetime rising Republican star. A federal jury in Richmond convicted Bob McDonnell of 11 of the 13 counts he faced; Maureen McDonnell was convicted of nine of the 13 counts she had faced. Both bowed their heads and
wept as the court clerk read a chorus of “guilty” verdicts. Widely considered a possible running mate for Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential campaign, McDonnell was all but abandoned after the scandal, and lived alone in a church rectory during the trial. Now he and his wife face up to 30 years in prison on most counts. Sentencing was scheduled for Jan. 6. The couple’s defense strategy depended in large part on persuading jurors that their marriage
SHE WROTE WITH HER TOES!
Jan Smothers sat directly in front of me in Philosophy class in 1975 at Freed-Hardeman College (now a University). Jan had no arms. Still she managed to get dressed each morning, pack her books and get to class on time, almost without fail. She worked with her toes. At the beginning of each class she would lay her textbook, notebook, and pencil on the floor beside her desk, turn to the appropriate page number, and begin taking notes--all with her toes! She wrote better with her toes than I did with my fingers. During one particular class, her hair fell into her eyes. Almost effortlessly she stretched her left foot upward, caught the strand of hair between her toes, and tucked it back behind her ear. I was amazed. Near the end of the semester, during a daily chapel program, Jan was presented an Achievement Award by E. Claude Gardner, President of the College. She walked to the stage and accepted the Award, carrying it between her chin and shoulder. The rest of us gave her a standing ovation as she returned to her seat. One thousand, four hundred seventy five students clapped in admiration, with very few dry eyes in the auditorium. In admiration, mind you. We did not pity Jan. She did not want or need our pity. We admired her courage and determination. She truly believed she could do all things through Christ who strengthened her (Philippians 4:13). If anyone was to be pitied, it was the rest of us. That is, those of us who, with two good arms, made our petty excuses for doing second rate work, those of us who were capable of A’s and B’s but settled for C’s and D’s. Sometimes those with major handicaps courageously rise to the occasion, let it spur them to greater effort, and thereby become some of the “luckiest” people in the world. Perhaps Jan could understand better than most of us what the Apostle Paul meant when he spoke of his “thorn in the flesh”. He wrote, “Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me” (II Corinthians 12:8-9).

itself was a fraud and that they were unable to speak to each other, let alone conspire to accept bribes. Bob McDonnell seemed ashen as he was mobbed by TV cameras before climbing into a waiting blue Mercedes. “All I can say is that my trust remains in the Lord,” he said quietly. The couple was convicted on nearly all the counts involving doing favors for wealthy vitamin executive Jonnie Williams in exchange for more than $165,000 in gifts and loans that they admitted taking. Maureen McDonnell also was convicted of obstructing justice after the scandal broke, by return-
ing a designer gown that Williams had bought for her in New York City, along with a handwritten note that tried to diminish its value by suggesting they had agreed Williams could give the dress to his daughters or to charity. Jurors acquitted them of bank fraud on loan applications that failed to mention the money Williams lent them. The former governor testified in his own defense, insisting that he provided nothing more than routine political courtesies to the former CEO of Star Scientific, a Virginia-based dietary supplements company. Maureen McDonnell did not take the stand.

Govan sang ‘sweet soul’ with distinct Memphis style He may not be a household name like Otis Redding, the singer to whom he was most often compared, but Memphis musician James Govan was an accomplished singer in his own right. For Stacy two deJones cades, he The was the Dowtowner front man for the Boogie Blues Band at the Rum Boogie Café on historic Beale Street in Memphis. I began venturing downtown to Beale Street as a sophomore in college in Memphis in 1993. Late in high school, I developed an interest in the blues, and being able to go to a music mecca such as Beale Street and hear a live band was the pinnacle of an early college career for a small town girl. I didn’t know much about the history of Memphis music, including how instrumental Stax Records was in the cre-
ation of music from the area, nor the linchpins of the region’s lyrical background, including Sam and Dave, Booker T. and the MGs, the Mar-Keys, Otis Redding, Al Green, Rufus Thomas, or Rosco Gordon. Then I discovered the Rum Boogie Café—and James Govan and the rest of the band. Govan sang on a woodfloor stage at the Rum Boogie under the bright red lights of a Stax Records sign. In turn, he was fond of following up the songs he performed from the Memphis music archive by belting with his gruff voice, “Recorded on Stax,” emphasizing the word Stax. The stage was flanked by well over 100 guitars from the ceiling, both upstairs and downstairs, signed by a horde of musicians, ranging from Leon Russell to Albert Collins—with lots of well-knowns and littleknowns in between. His style was distinct. His voice, tinged with gruff, syncopated inflections, was raw and charged with soul. He did sing a range of Otis Redding songs, including
“Sitting on the Dock of the Bay,” “Pain in My Heart,” “Mr. Pitiful,” “I’ve Been Loving You too Long,” and “These Arms of Mine.” However, he and the band also performed Rosco Gordon’s “Just a Little Bit,” Arthur Conley’s “Sweet Soul Music,” Clarence Carter’s “Love Me with a Feeling,” and Rufus Thomas’s “Walking the Dog,” among many others. Not only was he a captivating singer, Govan was also a showman. Every night that I went to the Rum Boogie, James Govan forged a connection with his audience members. Whether he was giving “shout-outs” to people from various towns or playing a request someone had made by putting a few dollars in the wicker basket up front or singing “Happy Birthday” to someone or throwing “Mississippi love beads” to audience members or letting an audience member sing the backup lyrics on “Mustang Sally” (as I once did), Govan made the show an audience event. One night in the mid-
2000s, I was at the Rum Boogie Café on my birthday. It was mid-week, and the crowd was nonexistent. Govan sang for a while and then went on break, allowing the band to perform. Riddled with nervousness, I approached him, told him it was my birthday, and asked him to dance. I cannot remember the song title, but it certainly wasn’t a slow song, and I can recall being surprised that Govan, who I considered to be a consummate soul singer, was truly not a great dancer. I’m no dancer, but this man, who could belt out lyrics that would make one want to crumble to her knees, had no rhythm on the dance floor. After a few turns, my nervousness melted, and I felt comfortable dancing. Again, Govan indulged one of his audience members, making me feel special. I associate Govan with the earlier days of Beale Street, before it become quite the commercial entity that it is now. I realize that even in its beginnings, the clubs along the street were unlike
authentic juke joints— several of which I have visited in the Mississippi Delta—and are sanitized, homogenized. However, when I first started going to Beale Street, the venues were allowed to stay open until 3:00 a.m. or so. I remember Govan’s trademark commentary, announcing that they’d be open “all night long,” that same gruff voice that had earlier touted Stax Records emphasizing those three words, then adding, “until the wee, wee hours of the morning.” Well-known around downtown Memphis, Govan had also become quite the celebrity in Italy, performing with his band at the Poretta Soul Festival for many years since 1993. A number of years ago, he also recorded an album at the well-known Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama—the title of which was re-released later as an album called Wanted and featured on NPR earlier this year. I had attempted to see Govan a couple of nights in 2013, and was told both times by Rum Boo-
gie employees that he was sick on both occasions. Apparently, he had suffered health problems since having a stroke in 2012. He died about two months ago on July 18 at the age of 64. I missed his funeral. I went to the Rum Boogie this past weekend and bought one of his CDs, which I had once owned and misplaced. I listened to it several times over and over. It was bittersweet. I thought about how I no longer know which singer or band to recommend to someone who decides to visit Memphis and desires to hear music that will offer a flavor of the city’s history and rhythms. I know that I am going to miss those nights on Beale Street, hearing James Govan’s voice wailing that “sweet soul music” into the sultry Memphis air.

BP’s reckless conduct caused Gulf oil spill, judge decides BY MICHAEL KUNZELMAN & JANET MCCONNAUGHEY Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — BP acted “recklessly” and bears most of the responsibility for the nation’s worst offshore oil spill, a federal judge concluded Thursday, exposing the energy giant to roughly $18 billion in additional penalties. BP’s market value plummeted by $7 billion after the ruling as its shares suffered their worst percentage decline in almost three years. By Thursday afternoon, company shares had fallen almost 6 percent to $45.05. BP PLC, which vowed to appeal, already agreed to pay billions in criminal fines and compensation to people and businesses affected by the disaster. U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier’s ruling that BP acted with “gross negligence” deals instead with civil responsibilities, and could nearly quadruple what the London-based company has to pay in fines for polluting the Gulf of Mexico. The judge held a nonjury trial last year to apportion blame for the Macondo well spill, which killed 11 men on the Deepwater Horizon rig and spewed oil for 87 days in 2010. He ruled that BP bears 67 percent of the blame, Swiss-based drilling rig owner Transocean Ltd. bears 30 percent, and Houston-based cement contractor Halliburton Energy Services is responsible for 3 percent. BP made “profit-driven decisions” during the drilling that led to the deadly blowout, the judge concluded in his 153-page ruling. “These instances of negligence, taken together, evince an extreme deviation from the standard of care and a conscious disregard of known risks,” he wrote. BP said it would appeal. “An impartial view of the record does not support the erroneous conclusion reached by the District Court,” its statement said. Justice Department spokesman Wyn Hornbuckle said “we’re pleased with the court’s finding that BP acted with gross negligence and willful misconduct.” The ruling exposes BP to about $18 billion in civil fines under the Clean Water Act. It also “repudiates BP’s claims that it was merely negligent and
will further damage BP’s already badly damaged reputation,” said David Uhlmann, a University of Michigan law professor and former chief of the Justice Department’s environmental crimes section. James Roy and Stephen Herman, who represented oil spill victims in the trial, said “we hope that today’s judgment will bring some measure of closure to the families of the eleven men who tragically lost their lives, and to the thousands of people and businesses still trying to recover from the spill.” Barbier wrote that legal precedents prevent him adding punitive damages that would have been appropriate given the “egregious” conduct of BP’s employees. The judge cited a botched safety test that should have warned the rig’s drilling crew that the well was in danger

of blowing out. Barbier said BP ultimately was responsible for misinterpreting the “negative pressure test.” Donald Vidrine, one of BP’s well site leaders on the rig, should have known that the negative test had failed based on abnormal pressure readings before the blowout, Barbier wrote. Vidrine and another BP rig supervisor, Robert Kaluza, await trial on federal manslaughter charges for the workers’ deaths, in the same New Orleans courthouse where Barbier sits. The judge was assigned to oversee most of the federal litigation spawned by BP’s spill. Last year, he presided over two phases of a trial for claims against BP and its contractors brought by the federal government, the five Gulf states and private lawyers representing businesses and residents.

Barbier heard eight weeks of testimony before identifying the causes of the blowout of BP’s Macondo well and assigning percentages of fault to the companies involved in the drilling project. The second phase took three weeks, focusing on dueling estimates of how much oil spilled and examining BP’s efforts to seal the well. Government experts estimated that 4.2 million barrels, or 176 million gallons, spilled into the
Gulf. BP urged the judge to use an estimate of 2.45 million barrels, or nearly 103 million gallons, in calculating any Clean Water Act penalties. Both sides agreed that 810,000 barrels, or 34 million gallons, was captured before it could cause pollution. Barbier hasn’t ruled yet on the question of how much oil spilled into the Gulf. Millions of gallons of crude gushed from the sea floor after the well blew and triggered a rig
explosion, killing wildlife, staining beaches and polluting marshes. BP ultimately sealed the well after several techniques failed to stop the gusher. BP says it has spent more than $24 billion in spill-related expenses to date, including cleanup costs as well as payments to affected businesses and residents. Long before Thursday’s ruling, the company estimated that its total payout to fully resolve its spill-related liability would be $42 billion.

Leader no more The world is catching up to U.S. stocks. Last year, investors from around the world flocked to the United States. Although its economic growth was slow, it looked more stable than elsewhere. The rising demand helped vault U.S. stocks to the best performance among the five largest developed markets and five largest emerging markets, as measured by MSCI indexes. This year has seen that U.S. exceptionalism fade. For example, the total return of Brazilian stocks, which includes dividends, is more than double that of their U.S. counterparts in U.S. dollar terms. Renewed confidence in the economic growth of emerging markets means buyers are once again interested, and markets of many developing economies have beaten the U.S. this year. Another factor has been bargain hunting: The price of many foreign stocks look cheaper than U.S. stocks relative to their earnings, after their prices failed to keep up with the U.S. market last year. Through July of this year, investors plugged a net $73.9 billion into mutual funds that focus on foreign stocks, according to Morningstar. Over the same time, investors pulled a net $3.8 billion out of U.S. stock funds.
U.S. stocks led the way last year but Brazil and other markets have risen even faster in 2014. Ahead of the U.S.

Economists predict that the U.S. economy added 220,000 jobs last month. If hiring meets or exceeds those expectations when the government reports jobs data for August today, it would be the seventh straight month of job gains exceeding 200,000. The last time the economy posted a streak that long was in 2007. An improving job market means rising household incomes, greater consumer confidence and thus, more consumer spending.

Fed banker speaks The president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston is scheduled to speak at a bankers’ conference today. Eric Rosengren will deliver remarks at a meeting of the New Hampshire and Vermont Bankers Association in Boston. Rosengren has at times differed in the past with the other central bank presidents on the timing of the pullback in the Fed’s monthly bond purchases, which are intended to keep long-term borrowing rates low. The purchases are set to end in October.

Squatter cousin won’t leave WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD

PICKLES
Dear Annie: My cousin is 53 years old and is in and out of jobs. He has no place to go and parked his van on my property on the condition that he stay no more than five months. He asked for permission to use my laundry equipment and electricity. But he’s already stayed 10 months, uses my facilities without permission and leaves things all over my front yard. On several occasions, I kicked him out, and he refused to leave. Several of my neighbors reported a squatter in the residential area, and the police arrived to deal with the complaint. They only request that he leave. But he’s still here. How do I get rid of him? — Cousin of a Squatter Dear Cousin: Depending on your local law, you can call the police and tell them your cousin is trespassing on your property, in which case, they may be able to forcibly make him move. Otherwise, you may need to sue him to get him evicted. In either case, we recommend you consult an attorney about what you can do. Dear Annie: I am amazed that women do not realize that one of the primary reasons they are not being asked out is simply because they insist on trav-

eling in packs. Men do not like to break into a group of women just to ask one of them to dance or to chat. Some years ago, I did an experiment with a female friend, asking her to place herself alone against a wall in a bar with her arms behind her. It took less than five minutes for someone to come up and ask if he could buy her a drink. Meanwhile, as I looked around, I saw many men standing about and many women in groups chatting away with no man even close to them. You have the ability to change your dating success pronto. — PB Watching Dear PB: A lone woman might indeed attract more attention, but not always for the right reasons. Women travel in packs for their own protection. Not every man is trustworthy. A woman who is alone at a party, for example, runs a real risk of being assaulted when she leaves, if not before, especially if liquor is involved. If a woman chooses to separate herself from her friends to get atten-
Dear Annie: I was very touched by the letter from “L.A., Calif.” I, too, am a single mother of two children. My kids were 4 and 8 when I divorced their dad. He had supervised visitation, which he chose to give up. Our children have not seen their father in 10 years. Is there resentment? I would say more hurt than anything. He chose everything else over his family. For a long time, my daughter has wanted to change her name from her father’s last name. My son doesn’t seem to care. Now that they both are adults, they can legally change their name without parental consent. I think your advice was great, but I don’t believe a name change needs to have anything to do with Mom’s animosity toward her ex. I think it is her intent to give her children a connection to what is constant and stable in their lives: their mother. My kids have thrived, are mature beyond their years and surround themselves with positive friends. Being granted total physical and legal custody was the best gift the judge could have given us. — Been There, Done That, Happier for It

Animal lover forced to choose between boyfriend, her pets D E A R ABBY: I have been d a t i n g “Chris” for almost five years. He’s my Abigail high school Van Buren sweetheart. We still live with our parDear Abby ents, but we feel we’re ready to move out and start our lives together. The issue is I have a cat (”Silky”) and a dog named “Chips”; Chris can’t stand them. He has said he doesn’t want Silky to live in our home and he would make her an outdoor cat. He also doesn’t want Chips to come with us because Chips can be whiny and vocal. I feel it’s my responsibility to take my pets with me when I move out. I don’t want to abandon them and leave them with my parents, and I absolutely refuse to put them up for adoption. I feel if I decide to bring them with me, Chris will make them feel miserable. Silky is afraid of him, and Chris doesn’t like Chips getting close to him. I love my boyfriend, but I love
my pets, too. Please tell me what to do! -- STUCK IN THE MIDDLE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR STUCK: Wake up! You are an animal lover; your boyfriend clearly has an antipathy toward them. Your cat is afraid of Chris because she knows he doesn’t like her or he did something that scared her. If he makes Silky become an outdoor cat (or she gets loose “by accident”), she may be at serious risk. And your dog will be miserable on the receiving end of constant rejection. It is very important that you learn to live independently. Because Chris is your high school sweetheart and you haven’t dated many others, it’s important that you take some time and date other people before deciding to move in with ANYONE. You and Chris may care about each other, but your compatibility is in question because, face it, you two have differences. DEAR ABBY: I’m not sure if this has been mentioned in your column before, but I would like to make your readers aware of something while they travel. When staying at a hotel, it is
important never to reveal personal or financial information over the in-room phone, even if the caller claims to be an employee of the hotel. Sometimes scammers will call the front desk of a hotel and provide a generic name or room number. Unsuspecting desk agents may transfer the call to that room, and the scammer will then pose as a desk agent. He or she will say something plausible to get the guest to provide credit information over the phone, and in a flash, the guest is a victim of theft. If such a thing happens, guests should immediately dial the front desk and ask the agent if a call for that reason was intentionally placed to the room. Very likely, it will not have been. -- JOHN IN OGDEN, UTAH DEAR JOHN: Whoa! Travelers can never be too careful. Thank you for the wake-up call.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re too hardworking to ever be accused of laziness. But it’s time to rest. Do so without feeling guilty because that only defeats the purpose. A difficult person has something valuable to contribute to you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Being patriotic does not mean that you have bitterness for people from countries other than yours. This is pretty basic human decency, but there are those who still don’t get it. You’ll be a teacher. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There are several ways in which you might achieve your goal. Your standards for yourself are already high, so let them be broad, as well. Lift your self-imposed limits. CANCER (June 22-July 22). All eyes and ears are on you, and your ability to eloquently express yourself will pave a new path. In the afternoon, you’ll have the Midas touch, and you turn real es-
tate or foreign ventures into gold. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re a dynamic force of nature. Use this force to bring people together, and love will be there. Tonight, a sibling, or someone else who is familiar to you, will surprise you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Because you see the problem first, you’ll be looked to as the problem solver of the group. Embrace your handyperson identity. Your skills will attract a special someone. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You don’t have to prove that you can assert yourself --really you’re much better off holding back. Yes, you’ll get what you want when you push. But you’ll also get it when you pull. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). This is truly love. The success of your relationship is more important than either one of your individual successes. You only want to win if you win together. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Conversationally speak-
ing, less will be more today, as nobody has time to sort through too much information. That’s why you’ll make doubly sure that what you’re about to say is really worth sharing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s not true that opportunity only knocks once. It comes back every day in different forms. Sometimes the knock is strong as knuckles, and then it’s like a bird pecking on the window. Heed it when you’re good and ready. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Frivolous mental pursuits are cool. Accept that. The best way to avoid being boring is to get so into the topics that interest you that you become a veritable expert. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). How can you stop being your own worst enemy? Just decide to get on your own side, that’s all. Once you do, the changes might be disruptive, but they also will be directly beneficial.

Issues with IV line affected Oklahoma execution BY TIM TALLEY & KRISTI EATON Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — Oklahoma investigators recommended more training for the state’s execution team Thursday after finding that, out of a sense of modesty, no one monitored an intravenous line that had been placed in the groin of an inmate who writhed and groaned during a lengthy execution. Clayton Lockett, 38, died 43 minutes after the first drug was administered April 29. Gov. Mary Fallin ordered the state Department of Public Safety to review the execution, as most typically take 10-15 minutes. In the report released Thursday, the agency said a physician with 15 years’ experience and a 40year medical technician who had worked nearly all other Oklahoma ex-
ecutions failed to place Lockett’s IV line properly. Investigators also faulted prison Warden Anita Trammell for ordering that the insertion point be covered up because the drugs were administered near his genitals. The medical team put the IV in the groin after failing to find suitable veins in his arms, legs, neck and feet, the report said. When it became apparent the execution wasn’t progressing as normal, the execution team pulled back a sheet and noticed a swelling larger than a golf ball near the injection site. “Warden Trammell acknowledged it would be her normal duty to observe an IV insertion point for problems” while a physician would monitor others, the report said. “This investigation found that neither of these observations occurred,
which led to the issue being discovered several minutes after the execution began.” Fallin had no immediate comment on the report, but scheduled an afternoon news conference. The prison system said it was already at work reviewing protocols ahead of an execution set for Nov. 13. Oklahoma used the sedative midazolam for the first time in Lockett’s execution, and DPS Commission Michael Thompson said at a news conference Thursday that all three of the drugs — midazolam, vercuronium bromide and potassium chloride — worked as planned. “The drugs worked,” he said. “At the end of the day ... the drugs did what they were designed to do. “Are there some things that need to be improved? Absolutely.” Thompson referred
questions about the timetable for implementing the report’s recommendations to the corrections department, which said it will discuss next week. Midazolam was also used in lengthy attempts to execute an Ohio inmate in January and an Arizona prisoner last month. Each time, witnesses said the inmates appeared to gasp after their executions began and continued to labor for air before being pronounced dead. But Oklahoma’s review didn’t find fault with midazolam or other drugs, instead noting the IV troubles made it difficult to determine the drugs’ effectiveness. Lockett, 38, had been convicted of shooting Stephanie Nieman, 19, with a sawed-off shotgun and watching as two accomplices buried her alive in 1999. Thompson
said Thursday the victim should not be forgotten while exploring the manner of Lockett’s death. “Victims have rights. They don’t get the attention they deserve,” Thompson said. “Lockett left real victims in his wake. He shot a 19-yearold girl ... and buried her while she was still alive. That’s cruel.” Lockett died behind a shuttered curtain 43 minutes after his execution began. State prisons director Robert Patton, who had halted the execution, had said the inmate died of a heart attack, but autopsy results released last week said he died from the drugs. The autopsy did not explain why the execution took so long or why Lockett writhed. Prison officials previously said Lockett was combative in his cell on the morning of his execu-
tion and that he may have been intentionally dehydrated himself to make it more difficult for the IV to be placed. But the report said Lockett had no signs of dehydration at the time of his death, that his veins were in good or acceptable condition and that self-inflicted cuts on his arms shouldn’t have affected IV access. Lockett’s execution was to be the first of two held back-to-back on April 29, but the second one for Charles Warner was postponed. The DPS report recommended Oklahoma hold executions at least seven days apart, noting that the prison warden believed that the planned double execution caused “extra stress” for staff members. Three executions, including Warner’s, have been set in Oklahoma for November and December.
Plant getting Tesla Motors closer to electric car for masses BY JUSTIN PRITCHARD & SCOTT SONNER Associated Press
RENO, Nev. — To bring electric cars to the masses, Tesla Motors will transform an expanse of desert where pioneers passed on their way to the California Gold Rush and wild mustangs still roam the hillside. This time, the rush will be in Nevada, which Tesla chose over four other states as the site for a $5 billion factory that the carmaker projects will crank out enough high-tech car batteries to power 500,000 vehicles annually by decade’s end. Nevada’s elected leaders still must deliver on the economic incentives they’ve promised, but if they do as expected, Tesla will open its massive factory at an industrial park outside Reno, according to a person familiar with Tesla’s plans. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no official announcement
had been made. An announcement was scheduled for Thursday afternoon at Nevada’s Capitol. At least a half-dozen road graders, bulldozers and dump trucks were working at the industrial park behind locked gates Thursday morning. More than a dozen mustangs grazed nearby as sprinkler trucks worked to keep down dust. A state synonymous with gambling hit the jobs jackpot — Tesla has said the factory will employ about 6,500 people. That’s a welcome jolt for a tourism-based economy particularly hard hit during the Great Recession. Tesla’s choice of Nevada over California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico takes it a big step closer to mass producing an electric car that costs around $35,000 and can go 200 miles on a single charge. That range is critical because it lets people take most daily trips without recharging, a major
barrier to the widespread adoption of electric vehicles. The “gigafactory,” as Tesla calls the project, would bring the cost of batteries down by producing them on a huge scale. Its approximately 10 million square feet, equivalent to about 174 football fields, would be running by 2017. That is when Tesla hopes to introduce its Model 3, At present, demand for electric vehicles is small. Through August, automakers have sold just over 40,000 fully electric cars this year, up 35 percent from a year ago, according to the auto website Edmunds.com. Factoring in plug-in hybrids, electric vehicles still account for just 3.6 percent of all new car sales, a slight drop from last year. Still, government fuel economy standards that will require new cars and trucks to average 54.5 miles per
gallon are expected to drive sales. Gov. Brian Sandoval’s office wouldn’t comment Wednesday on the gigafactory news, saying only that he would make a “major economic development announcement” Thursday. A spokesman for Tesla Motors Inc., based in Palo Alto, California, said company representatives would be at the Capitol in Carson City for the announcement but offered no other details. Sandoval has declined to discuss incentives he has offered Tesla. Based on CEO Elon Musk’s public statements, the incentives likely total at least $500 million. The governor would have to call a special session of the Legislature to approve tax breaks, grants or other incentives of that magnitude. This spring, Musk announced that the company would take the unusual step of spending millions

to prepare sites in two states — or perhaps even three — before choosing a winner. The person familiar with Tesla’s plans told The Associated Press a second site still will be prepared, in case Nevada is unable to deliver the incentives it has promised, or possibly to build a second factory. Tesla has done excavation and other site-preparation work at the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center, where it plans to build the factory, but had not publicly committed to building in Nevada until it tested what economic incentives other states offered. The center is about 15 miles east of Sparks, a Reno suburb founded as a railroad town more than a century ago. Aside from low tax rates and business-friendly workplace laws, Nevada
offered plenty of sun and wind to generate “green” power. The industrial park is only about 200 miles along Interstate 80 from Tesla’s lone auto assembly plant in the San Francisco Bay Area. It’s also near a deposit of lithium, an essential element to produce the battery cells. U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said Thursday that this ready supply was an important part of Nevada’s bid. He acknowledged at his Clean Energy Summit in Las Vegas that Tesla was coming to Nevada, and said he had spoken with Sandoval about it. Competition for the factory has been intense among the states, which bid up their incentive packages in private negotiations with Tesla.

Warriors looking for momentum BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Corinth hopes four quarters of a bend but don’t break defense and an offense that flourished in the fourth quarter last week carries over. Fresh off of a 17-14 thrilling win at Lafayette County -- capped by a tackle by normal wide out Armad Wicks -Corinth returns home to face Lewisburg. The Class 5A Patriots come in at 1-1 after falling to neighbor DeSoto Central 49-33 last week. Corinth scored 20 unanswered points last season after going to intermission tied at 7-7 in the first meeting between the two clubs. Thirdyear head coach Doug Jones
is hoping for a faster start tonight in the friendly confines of Warrior Stadium II. “We didn’t play well offensively in the first half,” Jones said of last week’s game. “We kinda looked like a deer caught in the headlights.” Corinth rallied with 17 fourth-quarter points in the final 9:16, including a pair of TD passes from Antares Gwyn to Armad Wicks. Jake Curtis’ first career field goal proved to be a game-winner with 26.9 seconds remaining. The game nearly took an ugly turn, just like last year’s shocking playoff loss to Byhalia. The Commodores lined up for a long field goal, but a mishandled snap nearly
turned into gold. But Wicks, who’s scored on all three catches this season, went from touchdown maker to touchdown saver, tackling the Lafayette County receiver at the Corinth 9 with no time on the clock. “We stuck Armad back deep in a safe field goal defense just in case something happened,” said Jones. “And it did.” Corinth’s defense played well all night despite giving up 17 first downs and 368 yards. The Dores managed just one score on 13 drives, and were turned away on four of their five drives into the red zone. “The defense played lights out,” said Jones. “They bent but didn’t break and made
plays and got turnovers.” Corinth came away with three takeaways, all in the second half. Deonte Keith had an interception and a fumble recovery, while Deonta Williams also came up with a loose ball. Brady Pratt caused the fumble inside the red zone, while Jalen Cobbs -- who was initially credited with the game-saving tackle -- forced the other turnover. Corinth’s defense will be called on again tonight as the Patriots come in averaging 393 yards and 34 points per game. Lewisburg has thrown for 550 yards (275 per) in two games. “Our secondary will be tested,” said Jones.

County trio falls in road contests BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
IUKA — Fly balls and intentional walks. Those were key for host Tishomingo County on Thursday as they edged out Kossuth 13-11 in slow-pitch softball action. In other games, Corinth fell 8-2 at Nettleton and Booneville blanked Biggersville 20-0. Kossuth (0-6) led 8-0 after two frames, thanks mostly to a pair of three-run shots by Carleigh Mills. She would be intentionally walked her final two at-bats after connecting
on her fifth and six long balls of the season. “We couldn’t do anything behind her,” KHS Steve Lyles said on the intentional walks. Dropped fly balls would prove to be the Lady Aggies downfall as the Lady Braves (9-2) scored 13 runs the remainder of the way, tallying in each of the last four innings. “Three dropped fly balls cost us 11 runs,” said Lyles, whose team committed four errors overall. Madison Switcher and Avery Mullins led Kossuth’s
15-hit attack with three each. Mullins drove in three runs with a pair of singles and a two-base knock. All told six Lady Aggies registered multiple hits. Tish County recorded 14 hits over its six innings of work at the plate. Kossuth will look to break its winless skid Saturday at the New Albany Tournament. The Lady Aggies will face West Union (9 a.m.), Ingomar (10 a.m.) and Falkner (12:45) in the annual gathering. “We’ve got eight more games before we open divi-
sion play,” said Lyles. “We’re not very athletic, but getting better. Hopefully all the pieces will fit into place. • At Nettleton, the Lady Tigers were held scoreless their last five at-bats, but an eightrun first was enough as they downed Corinth 8-2. Corinth (5-2) was held off the scoreboard until the seventh. Rebekah Williams led a six-hit attack with two singles. The Lady Warriors are also set to take part in Saturday’s New Albany Tournament.

Tonight’s Ticket: Alcorn County Football BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Alcorn Central (1-1) @ Walnut (1-1) When: Tonight, 7 Where: Wildcat Field, Walnut Coaches: Alcorn Central, Jeff Boren (3rd year, 5-19); Walnut, John Meeks (3rd year, 13-13) Last Meeting: Walnut
won 39-19 last season Series History: Walnut leads 17-4 in a series that dates back to Alcorn Central’s first full season in 1968. Last Week: Walnut rallied past Falkner 28-21 in Thursday’s Joe Bowl, Alcorn Central was blanked 40-0 by Tishomngo County. The Skinny: Walnut has won eight straight in the se-
ries that was rekindled in 2007. The teams met 14 times -- mostly in conference games -- in the first 17 full seasons (1968-84) of the Alcorn Central program. Walnut has big-play potential in Dandy Dozen selection Armani Linton and QB Will Quinn. Linton rushed for two scores and averaged nearly 11 yards per carry in last year’s
win in Glen. Quinn, who tallied the eventual game-winning TD last week with five minutes left, threw for 2 TDs in the 2013 win. Central posted 42 points in a season-opening win over Biggersville, then allowed 40 in a Week 2 shutout to Tishomingo County. Please see TICKET | 13A
Old-school has its advantages in college football BY RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Football Writer
In the spread-happy world of college football that Oregon helped create, being oldschool like Michigan State has its advantages. The seventh-ranked Spartans, who visit the thirdranked Ducks on Saturday, are among a dwindling number of teams still using what can best be described as a
traditional, pro-style attack featuring tight ends, fullbacks and the quarterback regularly taking a snap from under center. The Ducks have been at the forefront of the spread revolution. Few teams do it as well as Oregon, though plenty are trying. The reaction from defenses has been to streamline personnel, using quicker and leaner players who can track
down all those fast guys in the open field. Now that the traditional has become unorthodox, teams such as Michigan State, No. 1 Florida State, No. 2 Alabama and No. 13 Stanford can benefit from going against the trend as opponents struggle to prepare for their bigger and more bunched-up offenses. “I think it does become a little bit more difficult to sim-
ulate the things that we do in practice because of the nature of your personnel,” Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said. “Your personnel begins to take on your offense’s personality. “If you can’t simulate things very well throughout the week in practice and then you hit the game field, there’s a difPlease see OLD SCHOOL | 13A

ference in speed, there’s a difference in physicality, in just the way different plays are run.” For many programs, the best way to neutralize the talent advantage that teams such as Florida State and Alabama have is the spread. And spread offenses are even more prevalent in high school football than they are in college, which has helped trigger the explosion of the last decade. In the Pac-12, where Oregon resides, the spread is just about ev-
erywhere outside of Stanford. Even Southern California, long a pro-style stronghold, is now dabbling in the spread with what new coach Steve Sarkisian calls a “hybrid” offense. “When you practice all day against four wide receivers in training camp and then you show up to a game and there’s the I-formation with a fullback and tailback, it takes some adjusting to it,” Sarkisian said. The Big 12 is even more spread-heavy, with Texas taking the most traditional approach.

TICKET CONTINUED FROM 12A
This is Central’s first road game of the season, and despite just 12 wins the last six-plus seasons, eight of their last 10 victories have come on the road. Benton County (1-1) at Biggersville (0-2) When: Tonight, 7 Where: Lions’ Den, BHS Coaches: Biggersville, Ronnie Lawson (12th season, 32-90) Last Meeting: Biggersville won 22-18 last season. Series History: Biggersville leads 1-0 Last Week: Benton County defeated West Oktibbeha 58-6, Biggersville lost to New Site 6234 The Skinny: Tonight’s game marks the end of non-division play for the Lions, who will face eight straight contests in the rugged Division 1-1A. The Lions drew Week 12 as the non-division date of an 11-game schedule. Biggersville was 0-2 going into the contest against Hickory Flat/ Ashland last season and garnered the first of two victories on the road. The matchup is favorable on paper for the Lions as far as roster size. Benton County lists 22 players, while the Lions boast 21. The Lions have some offensive weapons in running back Bradley Davis (316 yards) and quarterback Tyran Davis (2 TD passes), but always seem to be forced into a shoot-
out. BHS is averaging 21 points per game, but has given up 104 in two outings. Kossuth (1-1) @ New Site (2-0) When: Tonight, 7 Where: Marietta Coaches: Kossuth, Brian Kelly (4th year, 20-17); New Site, Ronnie Jackson (3rd year) Last Meeting: Kossuth rolled 56-0 last year Series History: Kossuth leads 1-0 Last Week: Kossuth beat McNairy Central (Tenn.) 20-0, New Site ran past Biggersville 6234
The Skinny: Kossuth avenged a loss from last season, blanking McNairy Central 20-0. The Aggies were 0-2 heading into the Royal matchup a year ago and split their final eight regular-season games beginning with the skull drugging of New Site. Kossuth cut down on its turnovers from six in the opening game to one last week. After throwing three picks in the opener, QB Weston Bobo played turnover free ball behind center and rushed and passed for a TD in a
20-point second quarter. Matt Stewart paced the receiving corps with five grabs and added a rushing TD.

Fast-food protesters cuffed at higher-pay rallies BY JOSEPH PISANI
“The impact is in bringing it into the public attention.�
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Police handcuffed dozens of protesters in cities around the country on Thursday as they blocked traffic in the latest attempt to escalate their efforts to get McDonald’s, Burger King and other fast-food companies to pay their employees at least $15 an hour. The protests, which were planned by labor organizers for about 150 cities nationwide throughout Thursday, are part of a campaign called “Fight for $15.� Since the protests began in late 2012, organizers have switched up their tactics every few months to bring attention to the protests, which have attracted spotty crowds. Or-
Chris Rhomberg Associate professor of sociology Fordham University in New York ganizers previously said they planned to engage in nonviolent civil disobedience on Thursday, which might lead to arrests. In the past, supporters have done things like show up at a McDonald’s shareholder meeting and hold overseas protests. The movement, which is backed financially by the Service Employees International Union and others, comes at a time when the wage gap between the poor and the rich has become a hot political issue.
Many fast-food workers do not make much more than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, which adds up to about $15,000 a year for 40 hours a week. The protests have gotten media coverage. In Chicago, for instance, reporters observed supporters arriving on buses and sitting on a street between a McDonald’s and Burger King, chanting: “We shall not be moved.� “The impact is in bringing it into the public atten-
tion,� said Chris Rhomberg, an associate professor of sociology at Fordham University in New York. President Barack Obama has taken notice too. He mentioned the campaign at a Labor Day appearance in Milwaukee. “If I were busting my butt in the service industry and wanted an honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work, I’d join a union,� Obama said, as he pushed Congress to raise the minimum wage. The National Restaurant Association said in a statement that the protests are an attempt by unions to “boost their dwindling membership.� The industry lobbying group said it hopes organizers will be respectful to customers and workers
during the protests. Union organizers expected thousands to show up to Thursday’s protests around the country. Previously, turnout has been fairly minimal in many places. In an effort to get more people involved, organizers asked other service workers to join protests and added more cities than it previously had. Shanicka Primo, who was at a protest at McDonald’s in New York, said she heard about the demonstration after organizers came to the Checkers restaurant where she works. The 20-year-old earns $8 an hour at the burger chain and said a raise to $15 per hour would help her get her own apartment. “I wouldn’t have to live with
my family,� Primo said. In some cities, protesters were hauled away by police for blocking streets. Police handcuffed about a dozen people who wouldn’t leave in Chicago. In New York, at least three people wearing McDonald’s uniforms were taken by police officers after standing in the middle of a busy street near Times Square. Nineteen were arrested for blocking traffic. About two dozen protesters were handcuffed in Detroit after they wouldn’t move out of a street near a McDonald’s restaurant. And police in Las Vegas also handcuffed some demonstrators, giving about 10 of them citations to appear in court.
Court to hear faith healing case Coalition works to preserve BY TRAVIS LOLLER Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — An East Tennessee woman convicted of child neglect in her teenage daughter’s cancer death is asking the state Supreme Court to declare that she is innocent because she relied on prayer to heal the girl. Jacqueline Crank was sentenced to unsupervised probation after her 15-year-old daughter died of Ewing’s Sarcoma in 2002. Despite the light sentence, Crank has continued to pursue the case, arguing that faithhealing should be legal for everyone. The Tennessee Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case in Knoxville on Thursday. State law makes it a crime to fail to provide medical care to children, but there is an exception
for those who rely on prayer alone for healing. However, the Spiritual Treatment Exemption Act applies only to faith healing performed by an accredited practitioner of a recognized church or religious denomination. In turning to prayer for her daughter’s healing, Crank relied on the advice of Ariel Ben Sherman, who called himself the girl’s “spiritual father.� Testimony showed Sherman was accredited by the Universal Life Church, which will accredit anyone who fills out an application. Records from the Department of Children’s Services said Crank and her children lived “in a cult type religious environment with many people (estimated 30) living in their home and all of whom they consider ‘family,’ although none

are actually related.� In briefs, Crank argues that Tennessee’s Spiritual Treatment Exemption Act is unconstitutional because it treats some faith healing as legitimate while allowing other faith healing to be criminalized. The state Court of Criminal Appeals ruled against Crank in 2013, saying that even if the state’s faith healing law were unconstitutional, striking it down would not undo Crank’s conviction. It would simply erase the exceptions for faith healing, leaving the law intact that makes it illegal not to seek medical treatment for a child. Crank argues in a brief to the state Supreme Court that simply deleting the faith healing exemption would have the effect of punishing her for an act of which she is innocent. Crank initially was charged with a felony. Those charges were later downgraded after doctors said that her daughter Jessica most likely would have died even if she had gone to a hospital right away. Jessica was eventually taken into the custody of the Department of Children’s Services and admitted to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital. According to court records, the cancer caused a grapefruit-sized tumor on the girl’s shoulder that appeared to give her severe pain.
Music Row in Nashville BY LUCAS L. JOHNSON II NASHVILLE, Tenn. — With development squeezing Nashville’s famous Music Row, some in the music industry say time is running out to preserve the district’s character and the studios where the Music City’s iconic sounds were born. Just southeast of downtown, Music Row has long been home to an eclectic mix of recording studios, record label buildings, publishing houses and music industry office space. If country music had an epicenter, this is a neighborhood where it might be found. But recent demolitions to make room for new development have struck a nerve in the city’s musical community. At least two studios have been torn down in the last year, and the district is shrinking. “There’s a squeeze going on,� said Mike Kopp, president of the Music Industry Coalition, which includes hundreds of music executives, songwriters, musicians and fans. “It’s been squeezed down to about three or four streets ... and that continues to get squeezed.� Part of the pressure is from development, as more people seek to live near downtown.

“What I am hoping we can do is start a conversation about the requirements of heritage listings and zoning and various things that we can do as a community to preserve aspects of the row ... and not just sort of wonder as bulldozers start knocking things down.�
Associated Press
Keith Urban Country star and American Idol judge nearby universities, Vanderbilt and Belmont, are also expanding. Vanderbilt recently purchased the Sony Music building to use for administrative staff and academic purposes, though it’s allowing Sony to continue leasing space in the building. Some developers have allowed tenants to continue leasing, but they’ve jacked up the rent. In response, some artists have publicly protested the development and rising rents. Pianist and rocker Ben Folds drew a crowd of about 200 during a Music Row rally a couple of months ago. Country star and American Idol judge Keith Urban pleaded for preservation of Music Row in a local newspaper opinion piece. If nothing else, Urban told The Associated Press, he’d like to see a dialogue about preservation. “What I am hoping we can do is start a conversation about the requirements of heritage listings and zoning and various things that we can do as a community to preserve aspects of the row ... and not just sort of wonder as bulldozers start knocking things down,� Urban said. The coalition says it’s not anti-development, but just wants to preserve as much of Music Row’s culture as possible. “If there are condos being built, then why not have ... publishing houses

that are incorporated into those developments,� said Sharon Corbitt-House, a coalition member and artist manager. “I would think a lot of out-of-town songwriters would love to rent or purchase a piece of property that’s built around businesses that they operate from, or they work from.� One property in jeopardy is RCA Studio A, which the legendary Chet Atkins developed in 1964. It’s been used by a host of recording artists over the decades. Folds has rented the studio for 12 years. Developer Tim Reynolds recently bought the building. He said in an open letter to the media that he has had independent inspectors assess the property and he will “consider all options� regarding the best use of it, including possible preservation. Corbitt-House said Studio A, which has a unique acoustical recording room large enough to hold a full orchestra, is of particular concern because its room is the last of six that were made. Similar rooms in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Mexico and Rome no longer exist. “I keep saying to people, when this one is gone, this is it,� she said. Other cities like Memphis, Detroit and New Orleans have taken steps to preserve their musical culture. “Developers in general just don’t care much about history. They ... see opportunity,� said Raymond Winbush, director of the institute for urban research at Maryland’s Morgan State University and a former Nashville resident. Winbush said New Orleans is among the most successful at preserving musical landmarks and culture. The Preservation Resource Center in New Orleans and its partners managed to save the homes of several famous jazz musicians. The center’s director, Suzanne Blaum, said preservation efforts are more successful if multiple players are willing to negotiate. “A lot of work has to go into this, from neighborhood organizations participating to governmental organizations participating,� Blaum said.

Senior wisdom can Children say some funny things help solve problems It seems that each day I open my emails; someone has sent me a good story with a tremendous ending. Sharing these stories on occasion allows me to new insight to people and their plights and/or pleasures. The other day I received a story about an older couple that continued to live on a farm outside Gary the hustle and Andrews bustle of city life. Their children Devotionals were grown and moved on to the faster pace living and really couldn’t understand why their parents wouldn’t want to do the same. On a visit home one day, one of the children began reminiscing about his youth and walked around the farm with his parents. They spoke about the great gardens grown in the past and all of the animals they have had. The family had been in the horse business for many years but had slowed down quite a bit from showing and selling their horses. One of the older horses was still among the younger horses in the barn and the son posed the question, “Why do you keep the older horse? She is not a productive animal anymore. Sell her or getting rid of her would give you some extra money that you probably need.” Without hesitation the older farmer looked up and said, “We keep her because of love. Nothing else but pure love.” That evening after the son had gone back to the city and the farmer and his wife had gone to bed, the farmer was awakened by the smell of smoke. He looked out the window to see that the barn was on fire. He couldn’t get inside the barn and his greatest fear was that he had lost all of his horses to the fire. He told his wife there was nothing they could do but to praise God for He had blessed them over the years. He told her, “let’s go to the big old tree on the hill and say our prayers there.” As the older couple, during the coldness of the night, trudged their way to the hill so they could talk with God under the tree where they had been many times before. As they were approaching the tree they could see shadows on the hill next to the tree and when they arrived they found the older horse had led the younger ones out of the barn when the fire started. The older horse had been to

Life is like a fire to some of our younger generation today, just as it was when all of our older folks were young. Sometimes we get into situations and don’t know which way to turn and then, through the wisdom of an older generation, we see solutions that can ease our problems. Just about every solution will lead us back to the God that has guided so many generations across this earth. In most every situation we will find our problems are when we leave God on the outside and try to fix them ourselves. The most valuable resources and the Godliest people will rank among the senior citizens of today. Be smart, pay attention to them, and invoke on their wisdom plus their trust in the Lord.

Thanks to you they know that you are the one and only true God and they are not ashamed to tell people about your Saving Grace. Amen.

Children never cease to amaze us – they obviously listen when we think their minds are otherwise occupied and they come up with conclusions we would not fathom. I have only a few clips Lora Ann this week and Huff promise to change the Back Porch subject next week. A friend of mine in south Mississippi has a 4-year-old grandson who was invited to a friend’s birthday party last week. In the bright little fellow’s excitement about the party, he told his mother, “I hope everybody is invited to this party – except robbers and the devil.”
Then he quickly added, “But you couldn’t invite the devil ’cause he don’t have a mailbox and you can’t drive to hell to invite him ’cause you would run outa gas!” How does a 4year-old come up with such thoughts? This child is a preacher’s grandson, so he may have heard a little more about the devil than some, but still…! I’m reminded of the time one of my neighbor’s children, after hearing the story of Adam and Eve and the “apple,” told her parents she would never eat another apple because she didn’t want to make God sad. She made the comment right after her brother had asked if “that tree” was anywhere around here. The mother had to quickly explain that Adam and Eve’s fruit was not actually our kind
of apple! It’s understandable that a lot of the things our kids hear in church can put a child’s mind in questioning gear. During a message some months back, our pastor read scripture which mentioned a prostitute. Our five-year-old Christian, while drawing on a piece of paper, immediately looked up at his dad and whispered, “What’s a pros-ti-tute?” Why do they always catch the words you hope they miss? I never heard the rest of that story and what kind of answer was given, but I’m sure Chris didn’t tackle it until after the morning message. …So smile and have a good day – and I promise a different story line next time. (Lora Ann Huff is a Wenasoga resident and columnist for the Daily Corinthian.)

Group identifies third American with Ebola CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The president of a missionary group says a third U.S. aid worker sickened with the Ebola virus decided to return to Liberia after the other two people became ill. SIM President Bruce Johnson said at a news conference Wednesday that Dr. Rick Sacra returned to Liberia about a month ago after another doctor and a missionary became ill with Ebola. Both survived after treatment at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta. Johnson says the 51-yearold Sacra lives in the Boston area. He says Sacra wasn’t caring for Ebola patients but was delivering babies in the SIM hospital’s obstetrics unit. He says it’s not known whether Sacra will return to the U.S. for treatment.
Ebola survivor: ‘I felt like I was going to die’ ASHEVILLE, N.C. — A U.S. doctor who survived after contracting Ebola while doing missionary work in Liberia says he’s “very close” to the doctor most recently diagnosed with the disease and has spent time in “tearful prayer” for him. Dr. Kent Brantly also told NBC News that he feared his own death, telling a nurse at one point he had “no reserve and I don’t know how long I can keep this up.” NBC News released a portion of its interview with Brantly on Tuesday, the same day officials from the North Carolina-based missionary
group SIM said a third U.S. aid worker had contracted the disease. Brantly and missionary, Nancy Writebol, recovered in isolation at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta. Both were released last month.
American Muslim group denounces beheading WASHINGTON — The Council on American Islamic Relations is expressing “horror, disgust and sorrow” at the video purporting to show the beheading of U.S journalist Steven Sotloff by the Islamic State group. CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad says no one who believes in the Islamic tradition of peace and justice would kill an innocent civilian. In the video distributed Tuesday and titled “A Second Message to America,” the militant who performs the beheading says it’s retribution for continued U.S. airstrikes against Islamic State fighters in Iraq. Awad insists there’s nothing Islamic about the extremists, despite their claim to be establishing a Muslim caliphate in Syria and Iraq. He says some young Muslims who have joined the Islamic State group have been horrified by what they’ve seen, but can be killed themselves if they try to leave.
Presbyterian church closing after 117 years SAN ANTONIO — A San Antonio church known for its inclusiveness is set to close this month. When a group of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender
Catholics was banned from a nearby parish, Beacon Hill Presbyterian Church opened its doors. The neighborhood association, artists and recovery groups also used the space. But the San Antonio Express-News reports Beacon Hill will hold its last service after 117 years this weekend. Over the years its congregation has dwindled as have the funds for covering the church’s operational costs. Church lay leader Sally Lewis says it’s sad that the church will close but the congregation has become too small for the space. Longtime Beacon Hill congregant Betty Smith likens the church’s closure to a death.
Settlement in dispute between temple, city MIAMI — A settlement has been reached between a South Florida city and a Jewish temple in a long-running dispute pitting religious freedom and property rights against historic preservation. Temple B’nai Zion attorney Keith D. Silverstein said Tuesday the agreement keeps in place the Sunny Isles Beach temple’s historic designation but allows some valuable new development rights. The temple also is being paid $175,000. The temple had claimed in the four-year legal fight that Sunny Isles Beach was improperly using its historic designation powers to prevent any changes. The lawsuit was dismissed once by a Miami federal judge but reinstated by a federal appeals court.
