$100 bill gets a makeover BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The $100 bill is getting a makeover for notes that will begin to enter circulation in less than two weeks. As with other redesigned bills, the new $100 note features added security features intended to deter counterfeiting. Distribution of the bills will begin Oct. 8, but it may take some time for a person to see one in circulation. “We’ve built up large inventories of redesigned $100 notes in Federal Reserve Bank vaults
is influenced by distance, demand and the policies of individual financial institutions.” The new security features include a blue ribbon on the front that is woven into the paper. The ribbon contains images that shift from bells to 100s as the bill is tilted back and forth. The other new feature is a color-shifting bell inside a copper inkwell on the front. The note also retains three security features from the old $100 — the portrait watermark, security

The path to a new or better job often begins in front of a computer screen. People who do not have access to a computer or are not comfortable with computers can get some help at the Northeast Mississippi Business Incubation System’s Tech-Connect computer lab, which offers the public an opportunity to create a resume, fill out job applications on-line and participate in classes to improve computer skills. The lab has been around since 2001 as part of NEMBIS’ goal of helping people. “We want to remind the public this is an economic tool available to them when they are trying to update their skills sets, whether it be in the labor market or educationally,” said Executive Director Ray McClel-

Alcorn County’s Crossroads Museum teamed up with the Alcorn County Fair to host the museum’s Twelfth Annual Photo Contest in 2013 and the winners have been announced. These photos were displayed between Sept. 17-21 at the fair and the contest was open to all ages, but professional photographers were not allowed to participate. The photos are now on display at the Crossroads Museum through Nov. 16. The museum will host a reception for the exhibit on Oct. 13 from 2 to 4 p.m. There were seven categories of entry that included architectural landscape (photos had to include a man-made structure),

Longtime school employee enjoys retirement BY JOSEPH MILLER jmiller@dailycorinthian.com
When it comes to hard work and dedication, one person in particular knows the exact meaning of those words after putting in almost half a century of service with a local school system. Ann Driver of Corinth worked for the Alcorn School District for 48 years before finally retiring the last school year. “I got started at Glendale my first year of teaching,” Driver said. “Basically, how I got started there was the fact I needed a job and I was going to college so I started there in 1962. I started off as just an assistant where I just
helped the teachers that were working at that time.” Driver helped with the first grade classes at Glendale for about a year before moving to what she called, “Old Farmington.” “They were combining the schools back then, in 1963 I believe, while the Alcorn Central schools were being built,” Driver explained. “We actually did half days at the two schools while we were waiting on the new elementary school to be completed. I decided to stay at the new school once it was complete instead of going back to the Old Farmington school house.”
Driver spent 47 years of her tenure at Alcorn Central Elementary School (ACES) and she said — while holding back her tears — she stayed there for that long because she really enjoyed her co-workers and her students. “I loved the children and I loved being with the children and the teachers, too. They were all wonderful and I don’t regret it one bit,” added Driver. “But after all the years and hard work, I knew it was time for me to step away.” When asked what really made her finally decide to end her

lan. “We have personnel available to help them do job searches on-line and to help them create resumes.� The minimum age to use the lab is 14. Some students come to the lab to do high school and college work, while a number of older residents also frequent the computers. “We have two sisters that are probably in their 70s, and you would not believe how motivated they are in coming to these classes,� said Yvonne Brown, administrative manager. McClellan sees a big need in the community, particularly among “displaced workers who have gotten laid off, who
worked at ITT forever and a day and didn’t have any skill sets to speak of, and they come here and try to get retrained in some capacity so that they can get qualified to go back into the labor market.� The lab is equipped with Apple iMacs, and NEMBIS staff will help those who are not comfortable using computers. Sometimes, McClellan said, people just need the comfort of having someone sit down with them to help. “We try to teach them so that the next time they will be able to do it themselves,� he said. “If we have to actually do it for them, we’ll go as far as doing that.� The staff can help lab

teaching career and retire, she admitted she was ready for some spare time to spend at home with her husband and grandchildren. “I have been married to [Jimmy] for about 51 years and I spent most of those years teaching. So I figured it was time for a break and to spend some quality time with him,� Driver said. “My husband is a retired millwright superintendent so we are enjoying the time off.� Driver has one child, Sam Driver, and she said she is proud of him. She is also very proud she has six grandchildren who she can now get to know a little better. “My grandchildren mean the world to me and it really did have a lot to do with me wanting to retire,� said Driver. “I have two really young grandchildren who take up most of my time these days. I take care of a three-year-old but the other one is a newborn, so I don’t sit with her at this time. But I do get to see her more now.� After 50 years of marriage and 48 years on the

job, Driver knows a little something about taking care of kids. She also knows something about change and she endured it for eight different principals during her time at ACES. “Over the years I have seen several changes, which does include having eight different principals,� Driver said. “Many changes are just a part of life and they are evident sometimes. That was just part of the growing process. Some you like and some you don’t, but you just keep moving forward.� Moving forward is definitely what Driver is doing these days. “I stay busy pretty much everyday,� said Driver. “I am either running errands or doing chores or something to fill up my time. However, I really do miss the kids and my coworkers. But life goes on and I am doing my best to move on. When you do something like that for so long . . . it is hard to let go.� One thing is for certain, Driver’s love, dedication and passion is evident. Driver said if she could do it all over again, she wouldn’t change a thing.

thread and color-shifting 100 in the front lower right. Outside the U.S., the Federal Reserve says the $100 bill is the most widely circulated and counterfeited denomination. Detective Capt. Ralph Dance of the Corinth Police Department said stores should take note of the new design and continue to check for fakes. It has been a few months since any counterfeits have been reported to the police department. Bogus bills passed locally have usually been $20s in the last few years. “We used to have $100s being passed, but everybody was checking them, and the counterfeiters dropped down to the lower denominations,� said Dance. Not checking bills is the main reason fakes get passed. “The ones getting passed are so bad in quality that people are clearly not paying attention when they take them,� Dance said. The last $100 redesign was in 1996. All prior versions continue to be legal tender. Training and educational materials are available at newmoney.gov.

Today in history
Corinth city board agenda
Today is Sunday, Sept. 29, the 272nd day of 2013. There are 93 days left in the year.
The Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen will hold a regular meeting at 5 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall. The agenda for the meeting: ■ Proclamation — National Disability Employment Awareness Month ■ Public hearing on cleanup at 308 Lee Avenue (Hopper) ■ Schedule public hearing on cleanup at 303 Young St. (Jarrold) ■ Reports of the department
Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 29, 1789, the U.S. War Department established a regular army with a strength of several hundred men.
On this date: In 1829, London’s reorganized police force, which became known as Scotland Yard, went on duty. In 1862, Prussia’s newly appointed ministerpresident, Otto von Bismarck, delivered a speech to the country’s parliament in which he declared the issue of German unification would be decided “not through speeches and majority decisions” but by “iron and blood (Eisen und Blut).” In 1907, the foundation stone was laid for the Washington National Cathedral, which wasn’t fully completed until this date in 1990. In 1938, British, French, German and Italian leaders concluded the Munich Agreement, which was aimed at appeasing Adolf Hitler by allowing Nazi annexation of Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland. In 1957, the New York Giants played their last game at the Polo Grounds, losing to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 9-1. (The Giants moved to San Francisco.) In 1978, Pope John Paul I was found dead in his Vatican apartment just over a month after becoming head of the Roman Catholic Church. In 1982, Extra-Strength Tylenol capsules laced with cyanide claimed the first of seven victims in the Chicago area. (The case remains unsolved.) In 1986, the Soviet Union released Nicholas Daniloff, an American journalist confined on spying charges. In 2001, President George W. Bush condemned Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers for harboring Osama bin Laden and his followers as the United States pressed its military and diplomatic campaign against terror. In 2005, John G. Roberts Jr. was sworn in as the nation’s 17th chief justice after winning Senate confirmation.

Concert benefits Wounded Warriors Project BY JOSEPH MILLER jmiller@dailycorinthian.com
Generations, a Salute to Journey and the Wounded Warrior Project will hold a benefit concert at the Corinth Coliseum Civic Center in downtown Corinth in October with all the proceeds going directly to helping military service members. The doors are going to open on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 6:30 p.m. with the show set to start at 7 p.m. with promoter Mike McEllhiney inviting everybody to join in the fun for a good cause. “We are looking forward to the show,” McEllhiney said. “Corinth has
warmly welcomed our efforts for wounded veterans and for that we are grateful. McEllhiney is also a member of the band, Generations, a Journey cover band. His daughter, Anna Kate, is also in the band and she is only 12-years old. Kate sings classic country and is set to be the opening act. “Anna [Kate] has been looking forward to entertaining with classic country music and performing her recorded single ‘Sweet Tea’,” added the father. This family affair is the first stop of a planned sixstop tour. They are looking for donations of at
least $100. “With that donation, the donor will get four general admission tickets and will be mentioned as a ‘Friend of Generations and the WWP’, “ said McElliney. “Sponsorship packages are available from Platinum for $500, Gold for $300 and Silver for $200.” McEllhiney said they want everyone to spread the word about their show. “Folks can buy advanced tickets at The Alliance, the Smith restaurant, and the tourism office,” McEllhiney explained. “We will also sell tickets at the door.”
The show will be held at downtown Corinth at the Coliseum Civic Center. “Generations is fronted by Joseph Baldwin and if you love Journey . . . then you are going to love Generations,” McEllhiney said. “They have captured the original sound of one of America’s favorite rock bands.” Tickets are $15. Groups of 10 or more are $10 each.

Ban subsidies to Congress BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN The emerging Republican strategy -- to fall back from the fight over the continuing resolution and to fight over the debt limit increase — is excellent. But one tiny change is needed — don’t allow the government to stay open unless the government subsidy for health care coverage for Congress is blocked. Will the Democrats close down the government to preserve this perk? Hey, bring that fight on! The Republicans should put all their other demands into the debt limit bill -- delay of Obamacare, approval of the Keystone pipeline, cuts in food stamps and, possibly, tax reform. On that ground, we can win. President Obama’s argument that we should not default on our debts is purely specious since we get about $200 billion in tax revenue each month and our debt service spending each month is less than $30 billion. You don’t need to borrow money to pay your debts. Republican have also to be on the guard against any increase in spending in the continuing resolution passed by the Senate. The debt limit deal cut two years ago limited discretionary spending for this year to $966 billion. But the continuing resolution about to be passed by the Senate permits it to grow to $986, with the extra $20 billion to offer some relief from sequester requirements built into the debt deal two years ago. The House Republicans should insist on these two points: 1. That Congress does not get subsidies for health insurance coverage. 2. That the debt deal of 2011 is honored and discretionary spending is held at that line. Is it OK to let the government shut down rather than insist on these two points? Yes. Keeping your word on spending and cutting special subsidies to members of Congress are both adequate casus belli for a government shutdown fight. Voters will rally to oppose the Senate and Obama on any fight along these lines. In the debt limit/Obamacare battle, Republicans are focusing increasingly on a one year delay in Obamacare’s individual mandate. West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe Manchin indicated yesterday that he would back such a delay. Delaying Obamacare’s individual mandate for a year makes broad sense and will appeal to a great many voters. The chaos that is attending Obamacare’s launch, the uncertainty about what the law provides in the minds of almost every American — even those who passed it in Congress, and the delay of the employer mandate all militate for a delay in the individual mandate. On that fight, the GOP can make common cause with many who otherwise support Obamacare. So now, the Republican leaders have wisely decided where not to fight. Now they must decide — with equal wisdom -- to stand and to fight for no additional debt without spending cuts. (Daily Corinthian columnist Dick Morris, former advisor to the Clinton administration, is a commentator and writer. He is also a columnist for the New York Post and The Hill. His wife, Eileen McGann is an attorney and consultant.)

New report undercuts global warming alarmists Events have failed to fulfill the prophecy. Preachers have suddenly been struck dumb by uncertainty. Believers are understandably nervous and some, under their breath, are abandoning the dogma. These sentences could have been written at the end of the day on Oct. 22, 1844, about the Millerites, a religious sect started in upstate New York. Preachers had told their followers that Jesus would return to earth that day. He failed to show. But the subject here is not Millerism, but another kind of religious faith: the faith of the global warming alarmists. And while it’s not likely to have the impact of the Millerites’ Great Disappointment, we could be seeing the beginning of something similar on Sept. 27, when the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issues its fifth assessment report in Stockholm. A preview is provided by science writer Matt Ridley in the Wall Street Journal, who has “had a glimpse of the key prediction at the heart of the document.” “The big news,” Ridley writes, “is that, for the first time since these reports started coming out in 1990, the new one dials back the alarm. It states that the temperature rise we can expect as a result of manmade emissions of carbon dioxide is lower than the IPCC thought in 2007.” Ridley admits that the change is small. And he does
not deny that increased carbon emissions could increase global temperatures by Michael some signifiBarone cant amount. They would Columnist certainly do so if carbon emissions were the only thing affecting climate. But there may be other things. Like variations in sun activity. “The most plausible explanation of the pause,” Ridley writes, “is simply that climate sensitivity was overestimated in the models because of faulty assumptions about net amplification through watervapor feedback.” The pause referred to is the fact that global temperatures haven’t increased over the last 15 years. Global warming models predicted they would. The models’ failure is not as stark as the Great Disappointment, but it’s a failure nonetheless. The religious analogy is appropriate because belief in global warming has taken on the trappings of traditional religion. Alarmists like to say the science is settled — which is nonsense, since science is a series of theories that can be tested by observations. When Einstein presented his theory of relativity, he showed how it could be tested during astronomical events in the next decade. The theory passed.
Saying the science is settled is like demanding what religions demand -- that you have faith. Religion has ritual. Global warming alarmism has recycling and Earth Day celebrations. Some religions persecute heretics. Some global warming alarmists identify “denialists” and liken them to Holocaust deniers. Religions build grand places of worship. Global warming alarmists promote the construction of windmills and solar farms that produce uneconomic and intermittent electricity. Global warming alarmism even has indulgences like the ones Martin Luther protested. You can buy carbon offsets to gain forgiveness for travel on carbonemitting private jet aircraft. Some religions ban vulgar pleasures, like the New England Puritan sumptuary laws banning luxuries. Some global warming alarmists want to force most Americans out of big-lawn suburbs and into high-rise apartments clustered around mass transit stations. This last element seems to be dominant among many global warming alarmists. Stop the vulgar masses from living their tacky lifestyles of driving those horrid SUVs. They must be made to repent, conform and then be saved. The signs that the threat of global warming has been exaggerated come after publics here and abroad
have rejected alarmists’ demands for vast carbon emission reductions. The European Union’s carbon reduction program is in shambles and the United States has actually reduced emissions more, thanks to cheap natural gas produced by fracking. Windmills and solar panels are not economic or dependable sources of electricity. China and India are not going to stifle the economic growth that is lifting millions out of poverty with carbon emissions caps. History teaches that climate can change, and it makes sense to fund research to determine how to mitigate possible harms (and capitalize on possible benefits). Unfortunately, most government and nonprofit funding has gone to global warming alarmists. But apparently even these priests understand that their prophecies have not been fulfilled. Redemption is possible. Some Millerites formed the Seventh Day Adventist church, which has built fine medical schools and hospitals. Global warming alarmists might consider their example.

After talking the talk, Ted Cruz wins Long ago, Ted Cruz earned the hatred of every elected Democrat in Washington. Now, he’s on his way to doing the same with nearly every Republican. Soon, it will be almost a clean sweep. He had barely begun his 21-hour filibuster — or, to be strictly precise, 21-hourlong speech — when he compared his doubters to appeasers of Adolf Hitler, and he ended it roughly a day later with a prickly exchange with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The Cruz eye-rollers had plenty of occasions to roll their eyes — perhaps no senator has caused so many colleagues to mutter under their breaths in his first eight months in the world’s greatest deliberative body — but the conservative grass roots cheered. We should stipulate upfront that he is not going to defund Obamacare. As a legislative strategy, the defund effort is far-fetched to the point of absurdity. The theory is that on the cusp of or after a government shutdown, pressure becomes so intense on Democrats that

Reid buckles and passes a measure defunding Obamacare, and Barack Obama signs Rich it. Lowry Let’s put aside for the National Review moment that Democrats believe — probably rightly — that Republicans will be blamed for any shutdown. Why would a little downside political risk in the current confrontation move them? We’re talking about a party that spent decades trying to pass something like Obamacare and a president who was content to lose his House majority over it. The Cruz all-nighter wasn’t a legislative tactic so much as it was what 19thcentury anarchists called “the propaganda of the deed.” It made a point. It dramatically reaffirmed Republican resolve to repealing Obamacare. It drove more debate about the health-care law. It perhaps opened up space for more realistic immediate Republican goals,
such as a delay in the individual mandate, in the impending fiscal fights. It also saved Cruz’s reputation among the tea-party conservatives. The House passed its defunding measure in a passive-aggressive mood, as if to say, “All right, big guy, you wanted this -now let’s see what you can do with it.” The reaction in the House when Cruz said the measure didn’t have the votes in the Senate was anger combined with schadenfreude at his presumed comeuppance. Rarely have so many harsh background quotes been given to so many reporters with such glee. In the longer run, the outcome in the short term is irrelevant to Cruz’s stature as a conservative leader. No one asked whether Ronald Reagan had successfully blocked the ratification of the Panama Canal Treaty in 1977 when he ran for president in 1980. For that matter, no one asked whether Sen. Barack Obama had successfully defunded the Iraq War in 2007 when he ran for president in 2008. Obama’s example is in-

structive: When before have we heard of a new senator capturing the imagination of his party’s base, establishing an unimpeachable standard of purity on a hotbutton issue absolutely essential to it and beginning to run for president shortly after arriving on the national scene? Who knows whether Cruz ultimately tries the same thing. But the scoffers are probably the same kind of people who chuckled at backbencher Newt Gingrich giving speeches to an empty House chamber on C-SPAN so many decades ago. Gingrich was playing an outside game, and so is Cruz. The disdain for him among insiders will be inversely related to the admiration for him among the much more important outsiders. They will sustain him in a crusade against Obamacare that, alas, will extend long beyond this fall’s fiscal fights.

Nation Briefs Associated Press
Deadline nearing, GOP seeks delay WASHINGTON (— Locked in a deepening struggle with President Barack Obama, House Republicans demanded a one-year delay in major parts of the nation’s new health care law and permanent repeal of a tax on medical devices Saturday as the price for preventing a partial government shutdown threatened for early Tuesday. Senate Democrats rejected the plan even before the House could post it online for the public. The majority leader, Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., added that Obama “has stated that he would veto such measures if they ever reached his desk.� Undeterred, House Republicans pressed ahead with their latest attempt to squeeze a concession from the White House in exchange for letting the government open for business normally on Tuesday. They also agreed to pass legislation assuring U.S. troops are paid in the event of a shutdown. “I think we have a winning program here,� said Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Ky., chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, after days of discord that pitted Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and his leadership against tea partybacked conservatives. There was no immediate reaction from the White House. Obama said Friday he would not be party to eviscerating
the law he won from Congress in his first term, and spokesman Jay Carney said the administration would “absolutely notâ€? back repealing the medical devices tax. Apart from its impact on the health care law, the legislation that House Republicans decided to back would assure routine funding for government agencies through Dec. 15. The measure marked something of a reduction in demands by House Republicans, who passed legislation several days ago that would permanently strip the health care law of money while providing funding for the government. It also contained significant concessions from a party that long has criticized the health care law for imposing numerous government mandates on industry, in some cases far exceeding what Republicans were willing to support in the past. Â
House OKs bill on improved drug safety WASHINGTON — The House easily approved bipartisan legislation Saturday aimed at improving the safety of drugs produced by compounding pharmacies that mix customized pharmaceuticals. The measure, approved on a voice vote, comes almost a year after a meningitis outbreak that killed 64 people and sickened hundreds more was traced to a compounding company in Framing-
State Briefs
ham, Mass. Inspectors later found unsanitary conditions at the New England Compounding Center, which has since closed. The measure, aimed at improving how drugs are tracked from production until they are purchased at a drug store, would clarify what sponsors said was confusion over the Food and Drug Administration’s authority over compounded drugs. It would also require the agency to coordinate its oversight of compounded-drug safety with states. Compounders could voluntarily register as outsourcing facilities, which would bring them under FDA authority. Registering will let the agency identify who these companies are and what they produce, and allow the FDA to receive reports about any problems. Companies that remain traditional pharmacies would continue to be overseen mostly by state pharmacy boards. “We are near the resolution of last year’s deadly outbreak,� said Rep. Fred Upton, RMich., chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and an author of the legislation. Rep. Henry Waxman of California, said, “There is no question that this bill represents a step forward.� Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., criticized the legislation, saying its voluntary registration for compounding companies “is not strong enough to ensure the public safety.�

Redo or tear down old Kuhn, city says VICKSBURG — The city of Vicksburg has given the owner of a 54-yearold building that once housed the Kuhn Memorial Hospital, once one of Mississippi’s three charity hospitals, 120 days to decide its fate. The Vicksburg Post reports that the order was issued last week by city Building and Inspection Director Victor GrayLewis. The order came after a Sept. 18 hearing held on the property. No one from Ester Stewart Buford Foundation of Yazoo City, which owns the property, or Long Land Investments of Lauderdale County or Adair Asset Management LLC/U.S. Bank showed up, Gray-Lewis said. The hearing was not open to the public. Long Land acquired the property at the 2011 county tax sale. Adair got it at the 2012 tax sale. Neither has redeemed the property. “Someone’s going to have to fix it or take it down,� Gray-Lewis said. “They can’t leave it as it is.� If no action is taken after 120 days, he said, he will take the matter to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen for a recommendation. If the property owners do not take action, GrayLewis said, the city can decide to demolish the building, which he said is expensive. Under the state’s slum clearance law, the city can sell the cleared property to recover the cost of demolition.
“I hope it won’t come to that,â€? he said. The hospital was closed in 1989 along with two other charity hospitals in Meridian and Laurel. The building was given to the city in 1990. Â
Davis sentenced to life without parole GULFPORT — A Gulfport man has been sentenced to life in prison without parole for a 2011 fatal shooting. The Sun Herald reports that 43-year-old Sheridan Torrance Davis was sentenced Friday shortly after he was convicted by Harrison County jury of murder, possession of cocaine and illegal possession of a firearm. Circuit Judge Lisa Dodson sentenced Davis to concurrent prison terms of 16 years for being found with cocaine and 10 years for being a felon in possession of a weapon. Prosecutors say Davis shot 35-year-old Marcaris Dermaine Lowe during an argument. Prosecutor say Lowe was shot four times in the chest, abdomen and lower back Nov. 2, 2011. He died less than a month later after blood clots in his legs moved into his lungs. Â
High court denies Jones rehearing JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court has declined to review an appeal from Brett Jones. In July, the Supreme Court ordered a new sentencing hearing of Jones after throwing out Jones’ life sentence in a Lee County murder case.
Jones’ attorneys asked the Supreme Court to be more specific on what sentence Jones should now face when the case goes back to circuit court. The Supreme Court refused that request Thursday. Jones’ case is on the November docket of the Lee County Circuit Court. Jones, now 24, was 15 when he was arrested in 2004 for the stabbing death of his grandfather. Jones has argued it was self-defense. In throwing out Jones’ sentence, the Mississippi court cited a 2012 U.S. Supreme Court ruling. . In that case, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled last year that mandatory life terms for those under the age of 18 when the killings occurred amount to cruel and unusual punishment. The U.S. Supreme Court ruling did not categorically bar life sentences for juveniles, but it said trial judges must first consider whether the convict’s lack of maturity and vulnerability to peer pressure mitigate against life behind bars. Since that decision was handed down, courts across the country have been divided on whether it should be applied retroactively. The ruling itself was silent on the issue. The Mississippi Supreme Court said in Jones’ case that it was not declaring state law unconstitutional. It said it was putting in place a “stop-gap mechanism� for trial judges to ignore the life without parole sentences in cases involving juveniles and order life imprisonment.

2 charged in aiding fugitives WEST POINT — Two people have been arrested on charges on helping inmates escape from the Clay County jail. The Clay County Sheriff’s Department says in a news release that 20-year-old Dyandra Gill and 44-year-old Gary Parker, both of West Point, have each been charged two counts of harboring and concealing-escape. Gill and Parker are accused of aiding Austin Parker and Jonathon C. O’Brian, who escaped from the Clay County Detention Center on Thursday when they removed a light fixture and exited their cell through the ceiling. Parker and O’Brian were captured the same day in Chickasaw County and face more charges. Gill is out on $2,000 bond, while Parker remains in jail with a bond set at $11,184. Parker also had two contempt of court warrants.
Suspect arrested in furniture thefts NETTLETON — A 32-year-old Nettleton man has been arrested after an investigation into thefts from a manufacturing plant in the Lee County community. WTVA reports that Nettleton police booked Jeremy Neal with three counts of grand larceny and two counts of burglary. Investigators allege Neal took furniture from United Furniture Industries and sold the pieces. Most of the items have been recovered, police say. Police say Neal also is being held at the request of the Mississippi Department of Corrections for a probation violation. It was not immediately clear whether he has an attorney.
Electronic filing comes to Hinds courts JACKSON — Hinds Circuit Court and Hinds County Court will begin accepting electronic filing of court documents in civil cases on Oct. 1. Circuit Judge Tomie Green’s order this past week also notes that E-filing will become mandatory on Nov. 1 in civil cases. Mississippi Supreme Court Chief Justice Bill Waller Jr. says in a news release that having the state’s most populous county, the home of the capital city and the seat of state government is essential to a unified records system. Clay County Chancery Court also will begin voluntary e-filing Oct. 1. The Clay County Circuit Court implemented mandatory e-filing Aug. 1. Montgomery County Chancery Court began voluntary e-filing Sept. 16. With the additions, the Mississippi Electronic Courts program will be used in 20 courts in 12 counties.

US-Iran: Breakthrough after decades of silence WASHINGTON — Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was ending his visit to the United States and inching through New York’s notorious traffic when the call came from President Barack Obama in the Oval Office. Fifteen minutes later, the two say goodbye in each other’s language, and a generation-long rift between the U.S. and Iran was that much closer to being bridged. Iranians awoke Saturday to learn about the groundbreaking conversation, the first in more than three decades between leaders of the two countries. They pledged to resolve concerns about Iran’s nuclear ambitions, which have isolated Iranians from the rest of the world and led to crippling economic penalties. Upon his arrival in Tehran on Saturday, Rouhani was met by both cheering supporters and opposition hardliners who tried to block his motorcade. Several dozen protesters shouted “Death to America” and at least one reportedly hurled a shoe, a gesture of contempt. Supporters greeted Rouhani with cheers and placards praising his peace efforts. The focus now turns to negotiations among foreign ministers and other officials from the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany. The group wants Iran to present a more detailed proposal before or at the next round of negotiations, scheduled in Geneva on Oct. 1516, according to an Obama administration official. Rouhani’s aides initially reached out to arrange the call, said officials, who weren’t authorized to comment by name and demanded anonymity. But it was Obama who signaled days earlier he was willing to meet with his Iranian counterpart. By the end of the call, Obama was suggesting that a breakthrough on the nuclear issue could portend even deeper ties between the U.S. and Iran. Such a notion would have seemed unthinkable in recent years, when Rouhani’s predecessor was describing America in satanic terms. The telephone call capped a week of seismic shifts in the relationship while Rouhani was in the U.S. for an annual U.N. meeting. Obama had left open the possibility of an exchange with Rouhani, but the Iranian later said the timing wasn’t right. But hours before the phone call, at a news conference in New York, Rouhani linked the U.S. and Iran
as “great nations.” The night before, U.S. and European diplomats were hailing a “very significant shift” in Iran’s attitude and tone in the first talks on the nuclear standoff since April.
No. 2 US nuke commander suspended amid probe WASHINGTON — The No. 2 officer at the military command in charge of all U.S. nuclear warfighting forces has been suspended and is under investigation by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service for issues related to gambling, officials said Saturday. The highly unusual action against a high-ranking officer at U.S. Strategic Command was made more than three weeks ago but not publicly announced. Air Force Gen. Robert Kehler, who heads Strategic Command, suspended the deputy commander, Navy Vice Adm. Tim Giardina, from his duties on Sept. 3, according to the command’s top spokeswoman, Navy Capt. Pamela Kunze. Giardina is still assigned to the command but is prohibited from performing duties related to nuclear weapons and other issues requiring a security clearance, she said. Kehler has recommended to Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel that Giardina be reassigned, Kunze said. Giardina has been the deputy commander of Strategic Command since December 2011. He is a career submarine officer and prior to starting his assignment there was the deputy commander and chief of staff at U.S. Pacific Fleet. Two senior U.S. officials familiar with the investigation said it is related to gambling issues. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the probe in incomplete. Strategic Command oversees the military’s nuclear fighter units, including the Navy’s nucleararmed submarines and the Air Force’s nuclear bombers and nuclear land-based missiles. It is located near Omaha, Neb. Kunze said Strategic Command did not announce the Sept. 3 suspension because Giardina remains under investigation and action on Kehler’s recommendation that Giardina be reassigned is pending. The suspension was first reported by the Omaha WorldHerald. The spokeswoman said a law enforcement agency, which she would not identify, began an investigation of Giardina on June 16. Kehler became aware of this on July 16, and the following day he asked the Naval Criminal Investigative Service to begin a probe.
USFWS holds meeting on urban refuge JACKSON — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will hold a public meeting 0ct. 3 on a proposal to establish a national wildlife refuge along the Pearl River in the Jackson, Miss., metropolitan area. The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m.-to-8 p.m. at the Flowood Public Library. The UFWS is proposing a refuge of up to 5,000 acres bounded by the Ross Barnett Reservoir to the north and Lakeland Drive to the south. The project area includes 2,712 acres of adjoining property currently owned by the Mississippi Department of Transportation. If the proposed refuge is approved, this property will be transferred to the USFWS within the next two years.
Sales tax collections brisk in Starkville STARKVILLE — Starkville collected $441,240 in sales tax receipts for July, the second-best July on record for the city. The Commercial Dispatch reported that for the calendar year sales taxes receipts continue to track 2012’s pace. The city is averaging $462,782 monthly in general returns, close to last year’s average of $470,133.21. July’s total also represents a new high for the current fiscal year, running from October 2012 to Sept. 30, 2013. Starkville saw a 6.73 percent increase in sales tax returns when comparing July 2012 and July 2013. A similar gain, 5.92 percent, was seen between May 2012 and May 2013. The city has experienced only two months, February and June, in which 2013 numbers declined compared to the months’ totals in 2012.

Radio problems cited in deaths of 19 firefighters PRESCOTT, Ariz. — A threemonth investigation into the June deaths of 19 firefighters killed while battling an Arizona blaze cited poor communication between the men and support staff, and revealed that an airtanker carrying flame retardant was hovering overhead as the firefighters died. The 120-page report released Saturday found that proper procedure was followed and assigned little blame for the worst firefighting tragedy since Sept. 11, 2001. All but one member of the Granite Mountain Hotshots crew died June 30 while protecting the small former gold rush town of Yarnell, about 80 miles northwest of Phoenix, from an erratic, lightningsparked wildfire. Hotshots are highly trained backcountry firefighters who hike deep into the brush to fight blazes. While maintaining a neutral tone, the investigation cited badly programmed radios, vague updates, and a 33-minute communication blackout just before the flames engulfed the men. Though the report points to multiple failures, investigators did not consider whether the deaths could have been avoided, raising questions about what lessons firefighters can take from the tragedy. “These guys were doing what they were trained to do, and doing it well. But mother nature wins,” Jeff Berino, an incident commander in Colorado who has also worked as a fire investigator, said during a media briefing in Prescott, where all of the fallen firefighters lived. Some family members were angered that the report didn’t draw stronger conclusions about why the men died and recommend changes. David Turbyfill interrupted the news conference to shame officials for not providing his 27-year-old son Travis with the protection he needed to survive as the flames swept over him. He said the shelter Travis died in had not been improved in 13 years. “This report is fairly conclusive that the fire shelters are a total disaster. Policies, as they may be, need to change,” he said. His wife, Shari, begged the panel to move more quickly to correct the problems that contributed to her stepson’s death. “Your protection of us is killing us,” she said. “We’re willing to take the heat right now, but I don’t want another family to deal with this. “Help us, I implore you. Help us. Give us the information we need to change this. It is so necessary, please.”

Northeast schedules 5 one-act plays BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College theatre director Christopher Schager challenges his audience with the college’s 2013 Fall OneAct Plays on Oct. 10-13. Schager and the Northeast theatre cast will present five oneact plays in Hines Hall Auditorium that come from the 2012 Smith and Kraus collection of plays. Northeast’s 2013 Fall One-Acts are new works loaded with themes relevant to today’s audience. Productions begin at 7 p.m. from Thursday, Oct. 10 to Saturday, Oct. 12, and close with a Sunday, Oct. 13 matinee performance beginning at 2 p.m. “Words, Words, Words,” by David Ives opens the 2013 fall oneacts and is followed by “The End of the Perfect Game,” by Jay Rehak, “Magnolia Day” by S.D. Graubert, “The Lady and the Tyger “by Trace Crawford, and “Preconception” by Larry Hamm. In “Words, Words, Words,” the cast takes on the roles of three monkeys locked inside a cage to see if said monkeys have the capacity to type out the play “Hamlet.” Corinth’s Connor Burns and Alex Ketler along with Iuka’s Darian Henley are featured in Ives’ classic play.

of the Perfect Game”; an exhausted pitcher has an existential crisis before his last pitch of the last out of a perfect game in the World Series. Rehak’s “The End of the Perfect Game” contains one of the largest one-act casts during the 2013 Fall Acts with Corinth’s Tim Martin, Pontotoc’s Jon Butler, Holly Springs’ Ethan Hulsey, Corinth’s Taylor Harber, Booneville’s Jazz Prather and Baldwyn’s William Hood all heading to the stage. In “Magnolia Day,” Saltillo’s Jauwanna Johnson and Tunica’s Keshia Hibbler lock horns in a sibling rivalry; Marie attempts to lose weight for her wedding day while Lisa tempts her conscientious sister with a sugary-binge of cupcakes. “Magnolia Day” was voted as one of the Contemporary Playwright Series’ Best 10-minute plays of 2011. Crawford’s “The Lady and the Tyger” reveals Ripley’s Morgan Barber knocking an unassuming Ben Strickland (Corinth) off balance with an unorthodox introduction as the clever female tries to meet her prospective boyfriend. Brandon Strickland of Corinth and Mikayla Fournier of Ripley take on the roles of sperm and egg in Hamm’s “Preconception,” as both have a frank discussion regarding the male and female concerns with the leap of fertilization.
Cameras capture eagle killing deer in Russia Associated Press
LONDON — The eagle, red-handed. Remote cameras intended to monitor Siberian tigers in Russia instead caught a golden eagle’s fatal attack on a deer, snapping three photos as the massive bird dug its talons into the distressed animal’s back. London’s Zoological Society, which distributed the pictures to journalists, said the sequence showed a rare but not unheard of attack by a golden eagle. The society’s Linda Kerley said she first realized something was up when she approached the wildlife-monitoring device — also called a camera trap — and found a mangled deer carcass nearby. “Something felt wrong about it,” she

said in a statement accompanying the photographs. “There were no large carnivore tracks in the snow, and it looked like the deer had been running and then just stopped and died. “It was only after we got back to camp that I checked the images from the camera and pieced everything together,” she said. “I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.” Golden eagles are large birds. Their wingspan tops more than 2 meters (6 ½ feet) and, while they typically eat small birds, mammals, or snakes, they’ve been known to target larger animals as well. It’s rare for a camera to catch such an attack in progress, and the photos have been an online sensation.

Tishomingo County FCA students Submitted photo
Area high school Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapters played a huge part in the Mission Mississippi event “Mississippi Glowing for Christ” held last weekend. FCA students were in charge of carrying the cross to the Alcorn County Courthouse. Early Sept. 22, a dozen Alcorn Central Middle and High School students met Tishomingo County students to collect the cross in Burnsville. AC students carried the cross 11 miles on U.S. Highway 72 to Central School Road and then to the B Mart on Farmington Road, where they met students from Corinth High School. CHS students took it 3.5 miles to a morning church service, and then it was used for the 3 p.m. devotional at the courthouse. On Monday, students from Kossuth High School FCA met Corinth at Ruby Tuesday’s restaurant and proceeded south on U.S. Highway 45 for 6.5 miles to meet students from Biggersville High School FCA. Biggersville carried it 5 miles to the Prentiss County line, where they were to meet Jumpertown students.

JACKSON — Beginning Tuesday, some Mississippians can sign up for new health insurance policies on the state’s federallyrun health insurance marketplace. With Gov. Phil Bryant opposed to the federal health care overhaul, state government is mostly on the sidelines in the effort. That’s left a coalition of health advocates, churches and others to push the new law. Already, some Mississippians have received letters inviting them to sign up. Others might hear about the marketplace at church, a doctor’s

sign up or how quickly. People with incomes between the federal poverty level and four times that amount will be eligible for federal tax credits, on a sliding scale, to help pay for coverage in the online marketplace. That’s a yearly income of $11,500 to $46,000 for an individual and $23,500 to $94,000 for a family of four. Those with incomes at the top of those at the top of those scales will get little or no subsidy. People with incomes below poverty level will get no aid from the exchange. Uncovered adults were supposed to be helped by an expanded Medicaid program, but Mississippi leaders chose not to expand that health program. Bryant also blocked Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney’s efforts for Mississippi to run its own health insurance ex-
change, leaving the federal government to run the market. At first, it appeared some counties would get no coverage at all, until Chaney and federal officials persuaded at least one company to cover all 82 counties. Humana Corp. will cover 40 counties, while Magnolia Health Plan, a unit of St. Louis-based Centene Corp., will serve 46 counties. The two will compete only in Hinds, Madison, Rankin and DeSoto counties. The sticker price of those plans will be relatively expensive compared with that of other states. The estimated cost of a mid-range plan will be $448 a month in Mississippi, third-highest of 47 states outlined in a Department of Health and Human Services report. The two highest are in Wyoming and Alaska.

A 2012 study by the Mississippi Center for Health Policy estimated that as many as 275,000 Mississippians could gain insurance through the online marketplace, with 230,000 getting federal tax credits to help pay for it. But no one’s sure how precisely many people will

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Publisher Reece Terry, Editor Mark Boehler and Staff Writer Jebb Johnston will be meeting with University of Mississippi Chancellor Dr. Daniel W. Jones on Monday at the newspaper office. We will share his thoughts in the Tuesday newspaper.
Mom often shares joyful story of son’s adoption DEAR ABBY: In response to the Aug. 13 letter from the adoptive mom in Indianapolis, we, too, are sometimes questioned about our son. I don’t find it at all offensive, and I encourage her to view it from a different perspective. Just as mothers enjoy telling stories about their pregnancy and delivery, I relish talking about how our son came to be part of our family. I have talked openly about it to strangers in front of my son since he was a toddler. I tell them how amazing it is that a mother could love her child so much that she would be willing to give him to us so he could have a better life than she could offer. By not shying away from the topic, my son has seen that his adoption doesn’t make us uncomfortable, and as a result, it’s something he is comfortable with. Our son is full of confidence because he knows how much joy he has brought to our lives. -REAL PARENT IN COLORADO DEAR REAL PARENT: Thank you for writing. My office was flooded with comments from adoptive parents and adopted children, but not all of them were as positive as yours. “Why do you need to know?” was frequently cited as a way to deflect unwelcome questions about why the biological parents placed the child for adoption, as was, “I’ll forgive you for asking that question if you forgive me for not answering.” Many also prefer to say, “That is my child’s story and he’ll know
it and share it when and if he thinks it is appropriate.” My favorite was, “We don’t discuss such intimaAbigail cies. Have told your Van Buren you children the details of Dear Abby their conception?” Readers, thank you all for sharing. DEAR ABBY: I have been in an on-again-off-again, long-distance relationship with a guy for a year and a half. I have broken up with him and taken him back six times. It is always for the same reason: We are not compatible as a romantic couple. I have explained that we would be better as friends, but when I try to leave, he cries and begs me not to go. I’m afraid he could be suicidal, based on past reactions. I love him as a friend and I want him to be with someone who can love him the way he wants to be loved. How do I let him down easy, if there is even such a thing? I’m afraid I might ruin his life. I guess my question is, when you know in your gut that things won’t work out, when is it OK to throw in the towel? -- PERPLEXED IN PENSACOLA DEAR PERPLEXED: After six breakups, your long-distance romance is well past its expiration date. When there is a lack of
chemistry between a couple, it’s no one’s fault and it’s usually a deal-breaker. The problem with letting someone down the way you’re trying to is that it prolongs the pain, like removing a sliver halfway, then jamming it back in because the person is wincing. Threats of suicide if a romance is unsuccessful are attempts to control the partner who wants to leave through guilt. The time to throw in that towel is now. DEAR ABBY: When did it become acceptable to ask for a doggie bag after an elegant dinner in a friend’s home? I’m known as an excellent cook. I entertained eight guests in my home last night and served expensive meat, an accompanying salad, vegetables and a great dessert. They wanted the leftovers! I thought if they had the nerve to ask, they were welcome to the goodies. Would you? -- HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTEST DEAR HOSTESS: Would I what? Ask for the leftovers or give them? To ask for leftovers in someone’s home is rude, and I wouldn’t do it -- although some hosts do offer them to their guests. If you preferred to keep the leftovers for yourself, you should have said no -- with a smile, of course. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Ditch your well-laid plans, because it’s time to be playful and spontaneous. You’ll like where you land when you’re not trying to go anywhere in particular. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone is starting to think you offer a combination of traits that can’t be found in any other person and are therefore irreplaceable. That person is correct. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). No one influences others by trying to be like them, but someone very clever might begin there, just to fit in, and then slowly lead in new directions from the inner ranks. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Don’t overestimate the confidence of others. People are much more fragile than you think. You state your purpose and expect that others will do the same, but they might be too shy or intimidated to do so. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your
eyes are open to the wonder in even the routine things, relationships and people around you. You will encounter something so beautiful that you want to protect it with all of your might and light. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Perhaps you will not be as influential as usual over those wildcard rebel types in your life and realm. Do they deserve your forgiveness? That’s debatable, but forgive them anyway because you deserve peace. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The day has a confessional quality, and people will admit things to you that perhaps you would rather not hear. You have more presence of mind than most. What exactly do you want them to know about you? SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The people around you may not share your excitement about certain things, but they definitely appreciate that you have diverse interests. Don’t stop exploring.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can tell when someone is listening to you and when they are just waiting for you to finish speaking. There is no pleasure in talking to a person who cannot or will not connect with you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Creativity helps you avoid the tedium that challenges your sign today. If you’re not being creative, you will be absorbing someone else’s creativity through art, design or science. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Saying “sorry” doesn’t put things back the way they were before, but it can put closure on the situation, which is quite helpful and sometimes necessary if you want to begin anew. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may not like what’s going on today, but don’t give up on it before things change. First the tide goes out as far as it will, and then it turns. Hang on for the turning.

Alabama blanks Ole Miss BY JOHN ZENOR Associated Press
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — T.J. Yeldon rushed for 121 yards, Kenyan Drake gained 99 and a dominating defense powered No. 1 Alabama to a 25-0 victory over No. 21 Mississippi on Saturday night. Yeldon scored on a 68yard run and Drake added a 50-yard scamper to revive a struggling running game for the Crimson Tide (4-0, 2-0 Southeastern Conference), which outgained the Rebels 434-205.
Ole Miss (3-1, 1-1) was seeking its first 4-0 start in 43 years but instead was shut out for the first time since Arkansas did it in November 1998. AJ McCarron completed 25 of 32 passes for 180 yards with an interception for Alabama, which came in ranked last in the league in rushing. Alabama was held to 36 rushing yards in building a 9-0 halftime lead but gained another 218 on the ground in the second half. Bo Wallace was 17-of-30 passing for 159 yards for the
Rebels. The Rebels’ fast-paced offense came in averaging 38 points and 490 yards, but never got going and managed just 46 yards on 25 rushes. Alabama’s C.J. Mosley made a tackle in the end zone in the fourth quarter for a safety, and Drake’s 50-yarder came on the next play. Jeff Scott, who was averaging 110 yards a game and 9.4 per carry, was held to 28 yards on eight attempts. Alabama’s more plodding style helped the Tide monop-
olize the ball for 38 minutes, 29 seconds. Yeldon, who had 17 carries, breathed life into the running game on the second play after halftime. He burst through the line and spun away from a defender before winning a footrace to the end zone for a career-long 68-yard TD. The performance came a week after team leaders McCarron, Mosley and Vinnie Sunseri addressed the team Please see REBELS | 11A
Grantham earns national honors BY ADAM GORE LetsGoICC.com
FULTON —- The honors keep rolling in for Itawamba Community College sophomore keeper Cullen Grantham. After being selected as the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) Keeper of the Week for the second-straight week, the Corinth native was selected as the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Keeper of the Week for his efforts in the Indians’ 1-0 win over Northwest Mississippi Community College. The 2012 MACJC All-State selection had 5 saves in 90 minutes in net, extending his streak of scoreless minutes in net to 230, and earned his second-straight clean sheet to help ICC (4-2-2; 2-1-1 MACJC North) secure the victory and take over first place in the MACJC North Division. Grantham played 40 minutes in the Indians’ 1-1 double overtime non-division tie with Bethel University on Monday to extend his streak to 270 consecutive minutes without allowing a goal. ICC soccer teams will travel to Meridian Community College on Friday as in the third of their fivematch road swing before returning to Fulton on Oct. 8 to play host to Hinds Community College in MACJC North Division play.

Murray leads No. 9 Manziel leads No. 10 Georgia past LSU A&M past Arkansas BY PAUL NEWBERRY Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — Two out of three ain’t bad. Georgia is certainly not complaining. Aaron Murray threw four touchdown passes, including a 25-yarder to Justin ScottWesley with 1:47 remaining, and the No. 9 Bulldogs rallied to beat No. 6 LSU 44-41 in a thrilling game between Southeastern Conference powerhouses Saturday. The Bulldogs (3-1, 2-0 SEC) completed their opening-month run through a gauntlet of top teams with a victory that propelled them back into the thick of the national championship race.
“We’ve played some hard teams,” Scott-Wesley said. “It just shows we’re a great team. We can handle anything anybody throws at us.” Georgia was only the fourth team since the BCS began in 1998 to face three top 10 teams in the first four games of a season. The Bulldogs opened with a 3835 non-conference loss to Clemson, but came back to beat South Carolina 41-30 and now the Tigers. “We’ve grown up a lot this past month,” Murray said. “I think everyone in the nation knows what Georgia football is about now.

BY KURT VOIGT Associated Press
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Johnny Manziel made Texas A&M feel right at home in Fayetteville. Manziel accounted for 320 yards of total offense and threw two touchdown passes to Mike Evans as No. 10 Texas A&M pulled away for a 45-33 win over Arkansas on Saturday night. Manziel, who totaled 557 yards of offense in a win over the Razorbacks last season, was 23-of-30 passing for 261 yards and he rushed for 59 yards for the Aggies (4-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference). Trey Williams had 83 yards rushing to lead Texas
A&M, which finished with 262 yards rushing on 44 carries. Deshazor Everett had a 34-yard interception return for a touchdown. The win was the Aggies’ ninth straight on the road. Quarterback Brandon Allen returned from a shoulder injury for Arkansas (32, 0-1), finishing 17-of-36 passing for 282 yards and two touchdowns. The game was the first for the Aggies in Fayetteville since 1990, when both schools were members of the Southwest Conference.

Florida tops UK 24-7 Purdue falls to NIU 55-24 BY MICHAEL MAROT Associated Press
BY GARY B. GRAVES Associated Press
LEXINGTON — Matt Jones rushed for 176 yards and a touchdown and Tyler Murphy threw for 156 yards and a score as No. 20 Florida beat Kentucky 24-7 on Saturday night, its 27th straight win over the Wildcats. Murphy also rushed for a 5-yard TD in his first career start for the Gators (3-1, 2-0 Southeastern Conference), who closed a difficult week on a high note after losing starting quarterback Jeff Driskel and defensive tackle Dominique Easley to season-ending injuries. Jones, who had 28 carries, outgained Kentucky by himself while he and Mur-
phy provided all of the Gators’ touchdowns in the first half to extend the longest active winning streak over a major opponent. Florida gave Gators wide receivers coach Joker Phillips a happy return after his firing last fall as Wildcats coach. Joe Mansour’s 25-yard run on a fake field goal was the only TD for Kentucky (13, 0-1), which was outgained 402-173. That trick play was Kentucky’s only highlight on a night that largely belonged to Murphy and the Gators. Despite failing to score a second-half touchdown, Florida had no problems Please see FLORIDA | 11A
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Jordan Lynch and his teammates were their usual selves on the big stage Saturday. They scored points, they achieved new milestones and, of course, they won on the road. Lynch threw for three touchdowns and ran for another while the Huskies scored on a kickoff return and an interception return, running away from Purdue 55-24 to become first Mid-American Conference team to win two regular-season games over Big Ten foes in the same year. “We consider ourselves a championship team,” Lynch said. “When we go on the road and win these games, it
means a lot to the program.” Nobody has been better on the road lately than Lynch & Co. The Huskies (4-0) have won 11 straight road games, 25 of 27 overall, now have back-to-back wins at Purdue and made this one look easy. Northern Illinois tied the MAC record for largest-victory margin over a Big Ten foe, matching the 31-point win Toledo posted over Minnesota in 2001. Lynch, the Heisman Trophy hopeful, made another huge statement in what might have been his final college game against the Big Ten. He went 18 of 25 for 207 yards and ran nine times for Please see

35 yards and another score. Lynch’s numbers might have been even higher had the game been closer or if coach Rod Carey hadn’t pulled Lynch at the start of the fourth quarter. Still, Lynch did enough to become the 26th player in Football Bowl Subdivision history to top 4,000 yards passing and 2,000 yards rushing. Cameron Stingily, the converted linebacker, rushed 15 times for 72 yards. Eight different receivers caught passes. The defense forced five turnovers and, for once, the Huskies could relax late in the game after opening the season with wins of 30-27 at Iowa, 43-35 at Idaho and 43-39 against Eastern Illinois. Coach Rod Carey liked what he saw Saturday, especially out of a defense that was ranked 115th out of 123 in total yards allowed per game and 100th in scoring per game. While they still gave up yards, they didn’t give up many points till the outcome was out of jeopardy. “For an extended period of time, probably,” Carey said when asked if that was Northern Illinois’ best defensive game of the season. “They’ve had glimpses when they played a lot better, but they strung it all together over the long haul today, really good.” In addition to the turnovers, the Boilermakers (1-4, 0-1) had five pre-snap penalties on offense, the defensive coaching staff was called for sideline interference and things were so bad in the first half that new Purdue coach Darrell Hazell yanked the ineffective Rob Henry and replaced the Guys, Tenn., native with true freshman Danny Etling, his first action of the season. Henry was 5 of 16 for 130 yards and stopped two potential scoring drives with interceptions deep in Northern Illinois territory. The first came on a pass that was too high and Shane Mikesky tipped it into the air. The second came when Henry tried to throw across his body from the right sideline and the fluttering ball was picked off by the leaping Dechane Durante, his second pick in less than 3½ minutes.

matter as Florida picked off Maxwell Smith in the end zone en route to another stifling performance in which the Gators’ SEC-leading defense held the Wildcats to just 48 yards rushing — seven below their average — and allowed just 1 of 8 thirddown conversions. While the streak pro-
vided the game’s story line on a warm, clear evening, Phillips’ return to Commonwealth Stadium served up another interesting subplot. Fired last November after going 13-24 in three seasons — including three losses to the Gators — there was a question of how he would be received by fans who
remember his long relationship with Kentucky as a player and assistant coach before his disappointing tenure as head coach. The reception turned out to be cordial as he shook hands with some of his former players and Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart after the game.
host of Arkansas defenders and put Texas A&M up 24-10. The Aggies went up 30-20 to start the second half when Everett intercepted Allen and returned it for a touchdown. Arkansas had the ball down by one score or less three times in the second half, but Texas A&M’s de-
fense held each time — ending one drive with Everett’s interception and forcing two three-and-outs. The teams combined for 1,006 yards of offense. The Aggies, who entered the game leading the SEC in scoring at 50.2 points per game. While Manziel con-
trolled the action for much of the first half, Texas A&M turned to its running game to hold off a renewed Arkansas offense in the second half. The Aggies rushed for 150 of their 262 yards in the second half, during which they ran the ball 29 times and threw it only seven.
py,” Murray said. “If had to lose one of these games, obviously Clemson was the one, just because they’re in the ACC. Not saying we wanted to lose. Don’t get me wrong. But this is huge.” LSU (4-1, 1-1) got a career-best 372 yards passing from former Georgia quarterback Zach Mettenberger in his return to Athens, and the Tigers went ahead 41-37 on Jeremy Hill’s 8-yard touchdown run with 4:14 to go. But that was plenty of time for Murray and the high-powered Bulldogs on a day when neither
defense had much success. He completed three straight passes to quickly move the Bulldogs into LSU territory, and freshman J.J. Green broke off an 18-yard run to the Tigers’ 25. Then it was Scott-Wesley, breaking
wide open behind the secondary to haul in a pass and tiptoe just inside the pylon for the winning score. “We have a long road ahead of us to get back to the top,” Mettenberger said. “We have to win out.”

His 42-yarder came on the final play of the half after Ole Miss helped Alabama move downfield over the last 3:09 with a pass interference penalty and two timeouts, hoping to get the ball back. The Rebels had several gambles fail, converting just 1 of 4 fourth-down tries. They had a chance to close the gap early in the fourth quarter when Cody Prewitt intercepted McCarron’s pass at the Alabama 31. It was McCarron’s third interception of the season, matching last year’s total.

Some things you forget, some you remember I don’t much like traveling on interstates here in the U.S., nor on the autobahn, as they call them in German-speaking countries. Big zoom from one place to another with scant exposure to the personality of the people or the towns that you are passing. But when we drove from Switzerland down to southern France last summer with my husband’s sister, Maria, and her husband, Heiri, we took the autobahn, rushing along with all the other vacationers whose time was limited. And on those fast fourlanes, you do get the big picture of Nature’s panorama. We’d left Lucerne, nestled in the Alps, and swept across the broad expanses of the Mittelland’s plateau, past long, long Lake Geneva, skirting the city that bears its name. Eventually, we were barreling alongside the French Alps, massive juggernauts rising and falling at fierce angles like stormy waves, each one a rugged character and surprisingly distinct. I am
sure that each bears a proud name. The farther south we drove, Ryland the more Bruhwiler densely the wildflowColumnist ers bordered the highway, especially the pinks and purples of the butterfly bushes called buddleia, as if immense bouquets from lavish weddings hadL been scattered everywhere. Late that afternoon I fell asleep for perhaps an hour. I woke up and was astonished. You may have heard folks talk about the legendary light of southern France. They do not exaggerate. It’s as if we’d entered another world. The air was brighter, yellower, almost harsh but not quite. The towns and countryside were dustier, but cheerfully so. Not drab. No wonder so many artists end up living there. We’d exited the autobahn (or autoroute, as they say in France) and were winding along nar-
row roads that curved around one small field after another of thickly vined grapes or stunted olive trees whose slim, silvered leaves gleamed in the sun. It was too late in the season to enjoy the fields of lavender for which the region is famous, but sunflowers were a’bloom by the tens of thousands and oleanders abounded along the sidewalks of the towns. Our stay in Provence was wonderful, but that’s a story for another day. All too soon we were packing up early on a Sunday morning and waving goodbye to my husband’s brother Paul, whose open-air studio/ house we had so enjoyed. A quick stop by a roadside stand where Maria loaded up on olive oil and honey and a French candy, or nougat, loaded with nuts and figs (“taking the holidays home� she called it), then we left the quiet byways of the countryside and plunged into the autoroute, the traffic so heavy, both northbound and south, that it was almost shocking. With one
of his wry smiles, Heiri announced, “Everybody’s going to church!â€? We drove for several hours, Maria and I murmuring the names of the towns as we passed the signs. MontĂŠlimar. St. Etienne. You have to admit it. French rolls off the tongue. Around 1 o’clock we pulled into a roadside restaurant to stretch and enjoy a relaxing meal. Unfortunately, beaucoups of our fellow travelers had had the same idea. The place was hot and crowded, the staff run off its feet, and our food uninspired, to say the least. It was also expensive. “Something to forget,â€? Maria whispered with a philosophical shrug as we headed out the door. Now that, I thought, is a phrase I want to remember. Something crummy happens, let it go as easily as you’d wave away a gnat. And yet, a bit of bad luck isn’t always so bad. Because we’d been held up by the slow service at our lousy lunch, we reached the last leg of our journey at least an hour
later than we should have. When we neared Bern, Maria turned on the radio to check the traffic channel; they said there’d been an accident on the autobahn on the other side of the city. No one wanted to sit in stalled traffic waiting for the vehicles to be cleared away, so we took an exit onto the old highway that winds through the valley of the Emmental. Which is a little piece of heaven. The road curves alongside mountain streams and on through tidy villages tucked tightly into steep hills. The architecture of that region is celebrated, many of those dark, wooden buildings hundreds of years old, but constantly repaired and still in use by real farming families. Occasionally we got glimpses of their cows from whom comes the Emmental’s famous cheese, some girls so close we heard the hollow clanking of the bells they wear. The inns are frequently photographed for fullcolor calendars, as are the old-fashioned farmhous-
es, charming with the tiled roofs that are enormous. Wide, overhanging eaves swoop close to the ground. The balconies -- often on both second and third floors -- run the length of the walls and are bedecked with boxes of festive flowers. But it is the barns that grab me. How those folks love their barns. They are as sturdy and as woodbeautiful as their homes, with the same roofs and carvings and even the same boxes of red, red geraniums. Sometimes earthen ramps were built all the way into the barns so that hay wagons could be drawn right up onto the loft and unloaded. Sometimes house and barn formed a single, handsome structure. That detour was one of the loveliest drives I ever made. Even Maria might admit that it was something to remember.

Burning Old Jack is not part of perilous ceremony BY JIMMY REED Columnist
Bubba was always cheerful, but on that August day, when he handed me a can, he was as solemn as a mortician. “All’s left of Jack Stone,� he mumbled. Like Bubba, Jack had been a lifelong crop duster. With neither wife nor progeny, he departed this earth with one wish — that his cremated remains be spread over the Stone family homestead. “The Cub is just right for this job,� Bubba said, nodding toward my little Piper airplane. “I’ll fly and you sit in the rear seat. We’ll leave the doors open, and when we get there, I’ll throttle back while you lean out and empty the can.� I wanted no part of this project, but Bubba kept whining about how it was only right to heed Jack’s last need, so I relented. We decided it would be easier to hold on to a heavy canvas sack during the ceremony, so Bubba pried open the can, revealing what looked like chalk dust. We dumped Jack from can to sack. Airborne, with doors open, the airplane droned toward our destination. The day was hot and cloudless, and the antique craft labored to reach 5,000 feet. Over the target, Bubba throttled back. Gripping the sack’s bottom with one hand and its open end with the other, I shook the dust into the

As I struggled with the sack, Bubba, blinking at me like a great white-faced barn owl, screamed, “Chunk it out! Chunk it out!� I did, and — whoomph — the sack snagged on the little yellow bird’s tail feathers. Bubba fought the rudder and stick, wondering how in the world we would land. Gingerly, he turned toward the airport. Directly in front of us floated a solitary, mysterious, alabaster cloud. It was Jack’s motes — hanging like a fog bank between home and us! Straight through it we flew, emerging with yet another coating of white powder. As we approached the grass airstrip, I saw sweat beads coursing through the chalk dust on Bubba’s neck. With the sack flapping from our tail like a banner, we had no idea what the plane would do when it slowed enough to land. Well, any landing you walk away from is a good one, so goes the old saying, and we were fixing to test the saying. Coated
a ghastly white and eyeball to eyeball with the Grim Reaper, the two of us resembled cadavers, as the ground loomed upward. When the wheels touched, the Cub took a few jackrabbit leaps before lurching to a stop. A good while later, af-

ter pondering the indescribably secure feeling of feet on firm ground, we removed the sack from the plane’s tail. Looking inside, Bubba discovered a handful of Jack’s ashes. “What should we do with this sack?� he croaked.
“Burn it,â€? I croaked back. In a reverential tone and looking piously selfrighteous, he said, “Naw, let’s bury what’s left of him. It just wouldn’t be right ‌ burning old Jack.â€? (Daily Corinthian columnist and Oxford resi-

Rangers in Corinth offering interpretive hikes BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The 151st anniversary of the Battle of Corinth is celebrating by taking a hike. National Park Service rangers will be leading a series of free tours, starting on Thursday and continuing through Saturday. The hikes/tours will all begin at the Interpretive Center. On Thursday, the first of three tours during the day is set to begin at 9:30 a.m. Ranger Tom Parson will lead a driving and walking tour which will follow the path taken by the 1st Minnesota Light Artillery on October 3, 1862. “Munch’s Battery,” was one of the first units engaged in the Battle of Corinth and their long day took them from the outskirt of Chewalla, Tenn. to Cane Creek, Oliver’s Hill, Battery F, and ended in the shadow of the Corona College. Ranger Rachel Winters is slated to lead par-

The tour, which is slated for 1-3 p.m. and is set to end at the crossroads, will explore the roles of civilians in war-torn Corinth. While most of the town’s citizens fled with the Confederate withdrawal in May of 1862, some did stay in town throughout the Union occupation. Those on the tour will hear their account on what is was like during the Civil War in Corinth Thursday’s final tour is scheduled for 2-4 p.m. and will detail Davies’ Thin Blue Line. On the morning of Oct. 3 Brigadier General
Thomas Davies was sent forward by Major General William Rosecrans with confusing orders and 1,500 men to hold the Union right against an attack by Confederate Major General Sterling Price’s Army of the West with 9,000 men. Overwhelmed at the old Confederate works, Davies would pull back to the White House Line to make a stand. Aided by hard fighting, intense heat, and Confederate command confusion, Davies men would hold until relieved at 4:30 p.m. During this stand Brigadier General Charles Hamilton would have a perfect opportunity to attack the exposed Confederate left flank. Due to a series of confused orders and Hamilton’s lack of initiative, the attack would be bungled and occur too late. Ranger Charlie Spearman will lead a car caravan to the site of the Confederate earthworks of the old Beaure-
gard Line and the site of the fighting at the White House fields. On Friday, Parson will lead a driving tour to visit the original sites of the seven forts of the “Rosecrans Line,” Batteries Lothrop, Tanrath, Madison, Phillips, Williams, Robinett, and Powell. The event begins at 10 a.m. with each participant learning details about the forts such as when it was constructed and with what materials, how it got its name, what type of cannon were installed within the walls, and what part the fort played in the two day battle. Ranger Jim Minor is in charge of the middle tour on Friday. Minor will begin the 1:30 p.m. event at the Interpretive Center before moving onto the historic railroad crossing. Discussion will include Stirman’s Arkansas Sharpshooters flanking movement, penetration of the union lines, and ultimate arrival at the stra-

tegic crossroads. The tours conclude with three different hikes on Saturday. The car caravan and short walk, set for a 9 a.m. start, is titled “Hell on Hatchie: Davis Bridge.” Following the Battle of Corinth, the Confederate Army of West Tennessee was in full retreat. The heavy fighting at the Battle of Corinth, October 3-4, 1862, had crippled the army under Major General Earl Van Dorn and he sought to return to Mississippi to rest and refit his forces. The path to safety led across Davis Bridge on the Hatchie River in Tennessee. In an effort to block the Confederate escape, a Union column under Major General Edward O. C. Ord was dispatched from Bolivar, Tenn. “Caring for the Wounded and Dead” will be led by Winters at 10:30 a.m. The short hike will cover the three days of fighting that resulted in over
8,000 men killed, wounded, or captured. Corinth landmarks such as the Tishomingo Hotel and the Corinth House were pressed into service as hospitals as was nearly every public building and many of the private homes. Treatment in a hospital under primitive conditions was no guarantee of a swift recovery. In the days following the battle over 900 fresh graves were dug, and most of them are still located in the neighborhoods and fields around Corinth. A 2-2:45 p.m. tour concludes things on Saturday. “The Occupation of Corinth” will cover military activity following the Battle of Corinth. A discussion of the Union occupation of Corinth which lasted until January, 1864 will be covered. In addition, the return of the Confederates to the city and the attempts to place the railroads back into operation will be discussed.

NEW ORLEANS — Eight years ago, Hurricane Katrina and massive flooding spurred by broken levees heavily damaged the historic Saenger Theatre. On Friday, the theatre reopened for business following a $52 million renovation that restored the 86-year-old ornate movie theatre into what now hosts stage productions and live music concerts. Mayor Mitch Landrieu, elected officials and investors who partnered to bring the restoration to fruition stood on the newly renovated stage to celebrate the theatre’s formal reopening. A soldout performance by comedian Jerry Seinfeld later Friday will mark the theatre’s return. Two more shows by Seinfeld are scheduled Saturday. Landrieu and others used words like “wow,” ‘‘breathtaking,” ‘‘amazing” and “beautiful” to describe the Saenger’s transformation. Designers returned the theatre to its 1927 grandeur with a historically replicated carpet, original and replicated chandeliers, and a historically accurate paint scheme. Improvements also include technical upgrades, including new fiber optic stars in the auditorium, expanded restrooms and concession facilities. The theatre used to seat about 4,000 but now seats about 2,600, giving patrons more room and comfort, officials said. Landrieu said the theater, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is the city’s best symbol of resurrection and resilience. “This is just a spectacular moment for all of us,” Landrieu said. “We don’t want to be like Atlanta, New York and D.C. We want to take the old and the new and create that authentic New Orleans that can’t be replicated anywhere else in the world. And we’ve done that. I encourage you to use it and enjoy it.” David Rubenstein, chairman of the Canal Street Development Corporation, said the theatre is another step in the revitalization of the Canal
Street corridor. “This is just another reason to come and spend the weekend in New Orleans,” he said. Former Mayor Moon Landrieu, the current mayor’s father, recalled the first time he saw a movie at the Saenger. “I remember looking at the ceiling, seeing the ‘stars’ (twinkling lights in the ceiling) and wondering if I was looking at the sky. I was so excited to be here. When I look at all the statuary in here ... they’ve restored everything exactly as my old memories tell me,” he said. Rick Isley, a New Orleans native and singer who dropped by to see the changes, said the facility is still as luxurious as he remembers. “It’s just beautiful,” he said. “This is where I first saw ‘Enter the Dragon,’ back in the 1970s. Now look at it.” City Council President Jackie Clarkson recalled entering the theatre on her 5th birthday “before World War II.” “This is the greatest comeback of all led by this administration,” Clarkson said. “The memories it springs are so generational. Everybody still alive in this city can still remember the first time they walked into this gorgeous theatre.” Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge Morrell said her now-husband took her to see “The Sound of Music” on their first date some 48 years ago. “It looks the same,” she said, smiling. She said she hoped the theatre would “further open up jobs for the city’s residents.” “I’m thinking in terms of behind the scenes,” she said. “Those doing the props for the productions, the caterers. I’m hoping the cultural economy will steer jobs to our citizenry so that this city becomes one where everyone can get a ‘good’ job.” Other upcoming theatre highlights include an Oct. 5 performance by actress Kristin Chenoweth and the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, a show by singer Diana Ross on Oct. 30 and the return of Broadway to New Orleans with the Tony Awardwinning play The Book of Mormon on Oct. 15.

The Scotsmen of the 12th Illinois Infantry I never get tired of seeing the nicknames of some of the regiments from the Civil War. Most of the names are pretty obvious while others make me scratch my head and wonder what the name means. Here are some of my favorites: 11th Mississippi – “University Grays.” Actually just Company A of the regiment; they were students from Ole Miss. 3 7 t h Iowa – “ G r a y B e a r d R e g i ment.” T h e Tom youngster Parson of the unit was 45 and the Park Ranger oldster was 80. 104th Ohio – “Barking Dog Regiment.” Their mascot was a bull terrier known as Harvey the Yankee War Dog. 19th Indiana – “Swamp Hogs.” Apparently they were not known for the high level of hygiene in their camp. 2nd Missouri Cavalry – “Butternut Boys.” The name refers to the color of their clothes as they didn’t have regulation gray uniforms; the material was dyed with walnut shells. 13th Maine – “Temperance Regiment.” There was no “Happy Hour” in this camp. 50th Illinois – “Blind Half Hundred.” Okay, I get the Half Hundred part but I don’t have the first clue how they got this nickname and it seems it was an inside joke. 6th Mississippi –
Colonel John McArthur “Bloody Sixth.” They truly earned this “nome de guerre” in Rhea Field at Shiloh. Then there was the 1st Scotch Regiment, or, as they were officially known, the 12th Illinois Infantry. This one calls to me from across the sea and my roots in Scotland. Yes, my Grandma Parson was born a wee lass in Dumfries, which makes me a proud member of Clan Gordon. The 12th Illinois was raised early in the war and the men were enlisted for a mere 90 days. Everyone thought the war would be over in a matter of weeks and ninety days seemed like plenty of time

‘Super Tuesday’ brings on a whole new meaning Lately, if you’ve paid close attention, you’ve probably noticed a lot more people decked out in camouflage clothing, saw quite a few ATVs loaded in the back of pick-up trucks or on trailers being pulled behind, and vehicles that appear abandoned in desolate places. No… deer season hasn’t already begun if that’s what some of you are thinking. It’s getting very close, though. What you are seeing, however, are sportsmen making last minute preparations for what could be described as “Super Tuesday?” Super Tuesday is often thought of in political terms as the big day in an important election or, this year, it could be construed as the day the full implementation of the Obama Health-Care Law takes effect. Why anyone would
classify either “super” is a mystery to me! W h a t does clasDavid sify as Green super for a good Outdoors many of Mississippi’s sportsmen is what’s about to take place later this week. Mississippi opens its archery-only season for deer this coming Tuesday, Oct.1. Area hunters appear to be jacked up more than ever about the opening of archery season. Never before have I ever seen so many hunters frantically trying to get their act together. Deer hunting has long been the most popular outdoor sport among hunting enthusiasts, but I suspect there’s anoth-
er driving force behind the renewed interest for hunting deer with archery gear. The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks made a significant change in regulations pertaining to archery equipment. Hunters now have another tool to include in their bow-hunting arsenal. Senate Bill 2048 signed into law by the governor this past spring makes it permissible to use a crossbow beginning this year during archery season. Hunters will no longer be relegated to using only standard archery equipment, and the licensing requirements remain basically the same. In the past, only Mississippi hunters with a proven disability could get a special permit to hunt with a crossbow during archery season. The current law nullifies the need
for the special license. State officials are hoping the new law is received well and that more people will take advantage of the expanded opportunity. The idea is to get more hunters involved in helping keep the deer herd in check. The advantages of hunting with a crossbow compared to standard bows are many: Crossbows are cocked ready to shoot instead of having to move and draw at a precise time. They are aimed just like a rifle, shoot relatively fast, and consistently shoot tight accurate groupings at similar distances as a standard bow. But regardless of which type of weaponry you choose to use, I want to leave you with a few simple reminders that could help your hunt go off without a hitch. Don’t forget the bow
rope and the flashlight. It’s a hassle trying to get the bow up into the stand without the aid of a rope, and it’s an even bigger hassle trying to follow a blood trail at last light or, quite frankly, get into and out of the deep woods after dark. It would be wise to have two or three quality stand set-ups in mind prior to a hunt. You’ll be hunting in close quarters, so you will need to have a choice in choosing one where the prevailing wind will be in your favor from the direction the deer are expected to appear. On outdoor TV shows and in outdoor magazine stories, they always advise to let a deer lay overnight when a deer has been shot during an evening hunt and the shot placement seems suspect; worthy advice I guess if the deer is a trophy buck.
I beg to differ, though, if the deer is a doe or just a legal buck. I would give the animal several hours to expire and then go back to trail it with a light. The weather is still fairly warm during early bow season, which means the meat will likely spoil by waiting to find the deer on the following day. Deer season looks to be a promising one. Play your cards right and this opening day could be what you would really call a “Super Tuesday.” (Daily Corinthian columnist and Alcorn County resident David Green is an avid hunter and fisherman in the Crossroads area.

Mississippi State’s Deer Lab website focuses on white-tailed deer BY KAREN BRASHER MSU Forest and Wildlife Research Center
MISSISSIPPI STATE — As hunters gear up for the Oct. 1 opening day of the state’s white-tailed deer archery season, scientists at Mississippi State University are announcing a new tool to help manage Mississippi’s most popular game animal. MSU’s Forest and Wildlife Research Center recently launched the MSU Deer Lab website, www. msudeer.com. The site
is based on four decades of research conducted by researchers in the university’s deer ecology and management laboratory. Scientists in the lab are well known by biologists and land managers for their studies about whitetailed deer genetics, habitat and population management. The website provides a way to get the research information into a user-friendly format so others can benefit. “We want to get information out of the lab and
into the hands of hunters, landowners and natural resource professionals so they can formulate good deer-management practices and decisions,” said Bronson Strickland, associate Extension professor and wildlife biologist in the Forest and Wildlife Research Center. “The MSU Deer Lab website is comprehensive, offering not only information about the lab but also a section called Deer 101, which is everything white-tailed deer.”
Strickland and professor Steve Demarais developed content for the website based on their research and that of graduate students, as well as questions asked by land managers, biologists and landowners. The site includes sections on antlers, habitat, breeding season, predators, diseases and more. An interactive section will allow hunters to estimate and mpredict Boone and Crockett scores based on antler measurements.
“The management section introduces several strategies that will allow landowners to make intentional decisions to influence a deer herd relative to their specific objectives,” Demarais said. “Likewise, the food plots section provides specific planting suggestions to improve deer diet quality on a landowner¹s property.” The section about population dynamics introduces landowners to how deer populations grow and how to manage the
populations relative to specific landowner goals, Strickland said. While the MSU Deer Lab website is new for the wildlife biologists, their research has been gaining attention for some time. One of the lab’s chief collaborators, the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, credits the scientists for much of the deer management efforts in the state.

the words, “Dinna ye hear the slogan? Tis McArthur and his men.” The regiment fought well at Fort Donelson though they were roughly handled in the Confederate attempt to break the Union siege. McArthur emerged from the fight as a brigadier general and command of the 1st Scotch Regiment passed to Colonel Augustus Chetlain. Chetlain was born in Missouri from Swiss parents. He grew up in the small town of Galena, Illinois and was a friend of Ulysses Grant. (In later life Augustus was a frequent visitor to Pennsylvania Avenue to play cards with his old neighbor.) Chetlain was at the head of the regiment at Shiloh and Gen. McArthur posted them east of the Peach Orchard with the “Blind Half Hundred” on their left and the 9th Illinois on their right. A few hours later the 9th would be known as “The Bloody Ninth.” In May of ’62 the regiment was in the neighborhood but they never fired a shot during the length of the Siege. They made up for it in October at the Battle of Corinth. The 12th Illinois/1st Scotch was in camp at Burnsville when they were ordered back to Corinth to protect the city from Van Dorn’s Army of West Tennessee. They hopped onboard the train for the short trip into Corinth and were jumping off the cars before they even came to a halt. In no time at all they marched up the road to the old Confederate earthworks on the north side of town. They filed into the center of the line next to their old comrades of “The Bloody Ninth.” General McArthur had been advanced to the command of a different division and was no longer over the Scots and Germans; he was a few hundred yards to the west
commanding the defenders of Oliver’s Hill. Rosecrans said “McArthur’s Scotch blood rose” as he directed the critical fighting on the left flank. And yes, he was still wearing his Scotch cap, too. When the Confederate attack came, it came like a storm and the Union had to abandon the line and move closer to town. Several men were killed or captured including Private Christian Ziegenfuss of Galena. He later wrote to his parents, in German, about the battle. “I can tell you the bullets were really whistling by, and we thought it’s not good to be here. In hell it could not have been as bad.” He explained how as the regiment was pulling back a Confederate grabbed him by the throat and ordered him to drop his rifle. As soon as he did so, “a longhaired, raw, raggedy fellow,” snatched the weapon, cocked the hammer and was about to shoot him in the chest when the first man thrust it away. The “raggedy fellow” was incensed and began screaming profanities at the “damned Yankee” which drew the attention of a whole squad of men, all of them shouting, “Shoot him dead!” It didn’t look too good for Ziegenfuss. He was stripped of all of his belongings and was about to be executed when an officer intervened, returned all of his things (except his gun, of course) and sent him to the rear as a prisoner. Close call. The rest of the regiment made another stand at the White House where their brigade commander, “Uncle Dick” Oglesby, was shot through the lung. At the end of such a long day you’d think they’d get a good rest and be able to sit out the fighting the next day. It didn’t quite work out that way. Sometime during the night the 12th Illinois
was placed in a new position directly behind Battery Powell (Taylor & 4th Street). The acting brigade commander was Col. August Mersy of the 9th Illinois who was known to shout his orders out in German during the heat of battle. Like the day before, the Union line was overrun but this time they rallied and counter-attacked, driving the Confederates back in a headlong retreat. Private Daniel Osby rushed forward and captured the flag and flag bearer of the 3rd Louisiana Infantry. For his bravery on the field Daniel, a 24 year-old farmer from Kankakee County, would be commissioned an officer and was eventually promoted to Captain and command of Company K, 12th Illinois. The regiment spent most of the next year in and around Corinth on garrison duty and then
headed east to play their part in the taking of Atlanta and the March to the Sea. At the war’s end they had lost 260 men; 148 in combat and another 112 by disease. The 1st Scotch had gained entrance into the exclusive club of regiments who had suffered over a hundred killed in action. And whatever happened to the fiery Scot, General John McArthur, the original commander of the 1st Scotch Regiment? He made a name for himself as one of the toughest fighters in the army and finished the war as a Major General. But talk about bad luck, he couldn’t catch a break as a civilian. His iron company went bust and he went to work for the city of Chicago. He was serving as the Commissioner of Public Works when Mrs. O’Leary’s cow kicked over a lantern and started the Great Chicago Fire of
1871. He switched departments and became the Postmaster of Chicago but was held responsible for $73,000 of postal funds lost in a bank failure. The old soldier passed away in Chicago in 1906. Life smiled a little brighter on Col. Chetlain. He, too, was promoted to Major General and was prominent in raising black troops for the war effort. Upon his return to civilian life he held a few minor government jobs until his old pal President Grant appointed him U.S. Consul in Brussels. He was a leader in financial affairs and made a bundle which he willingly shared with others. The philanthropist/ general passed on in 1914 and was laid to rest in his hometown of Galena.

the summer of ’61 everyone realized they were in for the long-haul and the regiment re-enlisted for three years. The state of Illinois decided the soldiers couldn’t go on looking like a bunch of vagabonds so they were issued matching uniforms. GRAY uniforms. With GRAY hats!! They looked like a regiment of Confederates and there was a valid concern they’d be mistaken for the enemy and be shot at by their own troops. Six months later they were given regulation blue suits and the whole unit breathed a collective sigh of relief. As for the gray hats, they were thrown away from the start and replaced with “Glengarry caps,” or Tam-O-Shanters. They were a gift to the men from their commander, Colonel John McArthur. McArthur was born in Erskine, Scotland on the River Clyde. He came to the U.S. in 1849 and worked as boilermaker until he became manager of the Chicago Iron Works. He joined a local militia unit, the Chicago Highland Guards, and rose to the rank of Captain prior to the war. The governor appointed him to raise the 12th Illinois and though there was great number of Scots in the regiment there were also a fair share of Germans. A quick look at the roster reveals names like Brinkhoff, Wierman, and Richter alongside of McManus, McGuiness and Campbell. Scot, German, or whatever, they all wore their Scotch bonnets and marched to war under a pair of silk flags. The first was the Stars and Stripes with a large eagle emblazoned in the center, and the other was a large white flag with a red border. In the center was a Scottish thistle and a banner with

Miss Piggy joining Kermit in Smithsonian BY BRETT ZONGKER Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Miss Piggy is finally joining her love, Kermit the Frog, in the Smithsonian Institution’s collection of Jim Henson’s Muppets, and Bert and Ernie will have a place in history, too. Henson’s family, including his daughter, Cheryl Henson, donated more than 20 puppets and props Tuesday to the National Museum of American History to accompany the earlier donations of Kermit, Oscar the Grouch and early Henson creations. The newest donation includes an original version of Miss Piggy and some of her costars from “The Muppet Show,” including Fozzie Bear, Rowlf the pianoplaying dog, Scooter and the Swedish Chef. Puppets from “Sesame Street” joining the museum collection include Bert and Ernie, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Grover and Count Von Count, among others. Many are among the first constructions of the characters. Smithsonian magazine welcomed Miss Piggy, dressed in a silver evening gown and holding a red rose, with a photo shoot. The museum allowed her to pose with Dorothy’s ruby slippers from “The Wizard of Oz” and wearing the real 45-carat Hope Diamond from the National Museum of Natural History.
“She was very well-behaved, considering she wanted to take it home with her,” said Bonnie Erickson, who created the Miss Piggy puppet with Henson and now is executive director of the Jim Henson Legacy foundation. The gift was made on what would have been Henson’s 77th birthday and shortly after his wife, Jane Henson, died in April. Since she was diagnosed with cancer four years ago, Jane Henson spent years planning to find permanent homes for each puppet character, Cheryl Henson said. Other puppets are being donated to the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City, and to the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta. “Many of these puppets have been in boxes for years. They’ve been tucked away in boxes, and we don’t want them to stay in boxes. We want people to see them and to appreciate them,” Cheryl Henson said. “There’s something about puppets. They’re not animated. ... They are actual, physical things.” Miss Piggy will go on display in March 2014 in the Smithsonian’s “American Stories” exhibit. The original Kermit and Cookie Monster will go on view in November in a special display case, and a puppetry exhibit in early 2014 will likely feature Bert and Ernie, among others, curators said.

‘Breaking Bad’ ends its run still looking good BY FRAZIER MOORE AP Television
NEW YORK — The supply is running low and you know there won’t be more. “Breaking Bad” stands to leave its fans reeling. For five seasons of wickedness this AMC drama has set viewers face-toface with the repellant but irresistible Walter White and the dark world he embraced as he spiraled into evil. With the end imminent (Sunday at 9 p.m. EDT), who can say what fate awaits this teacherturned-drug-lord for the havoc he has wreaked on everyone around him. This is more than the end of a TV series. It’s a cultural moment, arriving as the show has logged record ratings, bagged a best-drama Emmy and even scored this week’s cover of The New Yorker magazine. Up through the penultimate episode, “Breaking Bad” has been as potent and pure as the “blue sky” crystal meth Walter
cooked with such skill. Judging from that consistency in storytelling and in performances by such stars as Bryan Cranston (Walter White), Aaron Paul (his sidekick Jesse Pinkman), Anna Gunn (who just won an Emmy as Walt’s wife) and Betsy Brandt, the end will likely pack unforgiving potency. But one thing is dead sure: It will be beautiful. “Breaking Bad” has often been described as addictive, and if that’s so, the look of the show is its own habit-forming drug. Michael Slovis, the series’ four-times-Emmy-nominated director of photography, has been cooking up that look since the series’ sophomore season. “I go for the emotion in the scene, not to overtake it, but to help it along,” said Slovis over a recent lunch in Manhattan. “With ‘Breaking Bad,’ I recognized very early that I had a story and performances that could stand up to a bold look.” The action is centered
Cryptoquip
in Albuquerque, N.M., which invites sprawling desert shots and tidy manicured neighborhoods; washes of light and jagged sun-drenched expanses. The look of the show makes the most of its setting, and also the technology by which viewers see it: In an age of digital video, with the smallest detail and the sharpest resolution visible to the audience, Walter’s battered mobile meth lab could be clearly discerned as a speck against a vista of deserts and mountains. A doll’s disembodied eyeball bobbing in a swimming pool had chilling vividness. And don’t forget the show’s visual signature: “Breaking Bad” was never afraid of the dark. Slovis recalls how, his first week as DP, he was shooting in Jesse’s basement. “Jesse and Walter are down there cooking meth, and I turn off all the lights and turn the back lights
on. There’s smoke and shafts of light coming through the basement door and I go, ‘This is what I came to do!’” “We have some interesting extremes in lighting, thanks to Michael and his fearlessness,” said “Breaking Bad” creator Vince Gilligan from Los Angeles. He invoked the fancy artistic term for this, “chiaroscuro,” which means the use of strong contrasts between light and dark. “‘Breaking Bad’ has become known for beautiful bold lighting,” he said, “and Michael became an indispensable part of the ‘Breaking Bad’ equation.” The imagery of “Breaking Bad” is second-nature to its viewers, whether or not they are conscious of Slovis’ work. So when they swoon at the beauty of the desert outside Albuquerque, they may not know the complexion of this badlands was created in his camera. “The desert on the show has a tonality that doesn’t
exist in real life,” he said with a laugh. This color is achieved with a so-called “tobacco filter” clamped on the lens. “I don’t pay much attention to reality when I light or even when I shoot exteriors. But nobody questions the color, because it becomes part of the storytelling.” Now 58, Slovis is softvoiced and lanky, with a head whose baldness rivals Walt White’s in Heisenberg mode. He got the photography bug while growing up in Plainview, N.J., where he became the school photographer and won a state photography contest. He was invited to study at the Rochester Institute of Technology. He imagined himself a fine-arts photographer but he loved movies and storytelling, and, after graduate school at New York University, he landed jobs shooting music videos and commercials, then got nibbles from feature films. But in 2001 he found
movie offers drying up, and, though he had never seen TV in his future, he gratefully accepted a call from the NBC series “Ed.” The timing was terrific. For decades, TV’s hasty, assembly-line production schedule proved an obstacle to giving a series its own visual style. “Film had been just a way to record the TV picture,” Slovis said. A further barrier to getting too creative was the low resolution and squarish shape of the old TV receivers, which conversely had a negative impact on theatrical films, whose wide-screen format was forced to conform (with lots of medium and closeup shots) to movies’ eventual small-screen telecast. Slovis hails pioneering exceptions such as “Twin Peaks,” ‘‘Law & Order” and “The X-Files,” and credits “CSI” as “one of the first times that cinematography became a real character on a show. TV began changing around us.”
Howard makes a believable racing movie with ‘Rush’ BY JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer
Ron Howard admits he was no racing aficionado when he set out to make the Formula One thriller “Rush,” chronicling the tense 1976 world championship battle between playboy James Hunt and calculating Niki Lauda. Racing movies don’t have the best track record, after all. The driving has usually been unrealistic and too many directors cheated on details that insiders found offensive. “I love sports, too, and I don’t know much about Formula One, but I just kept thinking, ‘If somebody made a baseball movie and if they cut to the center fielder and the center fielder was standing there with a catcher’s glove on, I’d feel disrespected,’” Howard said in a recent phone interview with The Associated Press. “I didn’t want those kinds of gaffes. When talking to people who really love motorsports, they’d talk about movies that weren’t documentaries and they’d cite mistakes, the kind of mistakes that would really just take them out of the movie. “While you can never be 1,000 percent authentic, it was important that we get it right.” Howard was understandably nervous when he screened “Rush” for the F1 community, with Lauda himself in the audience, during the German Grand Prix weekend in July. “It was tense for me, and I think they were gracious but skeptical going into the screening,” Howard said. “When it was over, I think they were surprised at how much care had been given. People who had lived through it were palpably moved.” Howard’s understating the response he received: Lauda led the room in a standing ovation and the overwhelming reaction so
far has been that Howard has made one of the most realistic and true racing movies to date. “Everybody says that the racing scenes are really incredibly filmed and done. So you have to ask normal people, not us. Normal people, they really liked the whole thing,” Lauda told AP. “I can only judge the way the public is judging. The public seems to like it, in America, here, everywhere.” Lauda has praised the Peter Morgan script, Howard’s directing and Daniel Bruhl, who plays Lauda in the film. Although Lauda did not spend many days on set, Howard said the former racer was available in preproduction and gracious with his time. Bruhl had the Austrian on speed dial during filming. “When something came up with the language or expressions, or a question in sequence like did Niki put his gloves on first or his helmet on first, Daniel would just take a moment and go over and be on the phone, and I’d know he’d be on the phone with Niki,” Howard recalled. It’s a complicated story featuring two very different heroes. Hunt, the hard-partying, womanizing Englishman who succeeds despite himself, and the cold and socially inept Lauda, who has no time or patience for anything but winning. They race during a dangerous period in Formula One, when technology rapidly outpaced safety advancements, and each driver faces it differently. “The closer you are to death, the more alive you feel,” Hunt says. “The risk of death turns people on.” Lauda, more sensible and safety conscious, pays the price in a horrific accident that left him badly burned. He resumed their championship fight 42 days after the near-fatal crash.
“Watching you win those races while I was fighting for my life, you were equally responsible for getting me back in the car,” Lauda tells Hunt in the film. While Chris Hemsworth plays Hunt, who died of a heart attack at 45 in 1993, Lauda believes Bruhl may have had the hardest role in the film because Lauda was able to critique the performance. “The most difficult part for him is that I’m alive, I’m in television, everybody knows how I talk,” Lauda said. “So he had a real terrible job to do and he did a really good job. Because when I saw him I thought it was me.” Four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon privately screened the movie for his Hendrick Motorsports team over the summer as a bonding experience for his crew. He praised Howard, who Gordon knows personally, for concentrating on the story. “It’s hard to portray racing on camera,” said Gordon. “By them building this movie around this great story and these rich characters, I thought was fantastic. My favorite thing was that I expected to be a huge James Hunt fan when I left and not really like Lauda. But when I left, I was a huge Niki Lauda fan, and to me, that’s how you’ve got to do a racing movie. It has to be more about the characters than the racing.” That’s the feedback Howard was hoping to hear, not just from the racing community, but from an audience that loves rich stories. “It’s not an American story, it’s not about characters who are household names for us,” he said. “But there is something that is relatable and surprising about the story that it entertains and is worth going to the movie theater to see.”
Gibson Brothers rule Bluegrass Awards again Associated Press
RALEIGH, N.C. — The Gibson Brothers won entertainer of the year for a second straight year at the International Bluegrass Music Awards on Thursday night as well as three other group and individual trophies. Eric Gibson was named songwriter of the year and his New York-based quintet also won vocal group of the year and song of the year for “They Called
it Music,” written by Gibson and Joe Newberry. The Gibson Brothers also were the top winners at last year’s Bluegrass Awards. Della Mae won emerging artist, Junior Sisk and Claire Lynch won in the male and female vocalist categories and Balsam Range’s “Papertown” was named album of the year. Tony Rice and Paul Warren were inducted into the Bluegrass Hall of Fame.
More than a year after Earl Scruggs’ death, IBMA voters showed they’re still thinking about the banjo pioneer by naming “Foggy Mountain Rock,” a cut from a tribute album to Scruggs, instrumental recorded performance of the year. The Boxcars were named instrumental group of the year and Marty Raybon won gospel recorded event for “Beulah Land.”
