Hospital board appointment Police investigate splitting city, county leaders morning shooting

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth aldermen and Alcorn County supervisors are at odds on a hospital board appointment.

The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors on Monday voted to reappoint the longtime incumbent, Myrna McNair. The Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen last month had voted to appoint Tim Smith to the seat.

Supervisor Tim Mitchell said McNair has served well for 25 years and made the motion to reappoint her to another fiveyear term. Steve Glidewell seconded.

“I think she’s done a great job,” said Glidewell.

Supervisor Lowell Hinton joined them in voting to reappoint McNair in a 3-0 vote.

Board President Jimmy Tate Waldon and Supervisor James

Voyles abstained from the vote.

In Tuesday’s meeting of the city board, aldermen passed a motion to reject the county’s nomination of McNair and to request that the county take up consideration of the person nominated by the city. Alderman Andrew Labas made the motion, which passed 5-0. Alderman Chip Wood recused Please see BOARD | 2A

Fired up

BY L.A. STORY lastory@dailycorinthian.com

A 25-year-old Corinth man was taken to Magnolia Regional Health Center after he was shot while walking in the area of Scales and Meigg Street early Tuesday morning.

A report from Corinth Police Sergeant Ken Walker identified Ryon Friar as the victim of a shooting by an unknown subject around 2:49 a.m.

Tuesday.

Corinth Police officers responded to a 911 call where

it was reported that “several shots” were fired and they heard “a lady screaming” in the vicinity of Ross Street. Several officers responded, but could not find anything after canvasing the area. While officers were still in the area, they received a call that MRHC had a gun shot victim in the Emergency Room.

Walker, along with Corinth Police Captain Ben Moore, responded and spoke to Friar’s Please see SHOOTING | 2A

Memorial bricks to help museum, F.D. save truck

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Crossroads Museum is offering the community the opportunity to purchase a memorial brick to be placed around the planned structure that will house Corinth’s antique fire truck.

It is part of a final push to reach the fund-raising goal of $55,000 to build a structure to display the antique truck, a 1924 American LaFrance which today sits inside the bay of the South Harper Road fire station.

“To me, this project is vital in preserving our C.F.D. history,” said Jerry Whirley, training officer for the Corinth Fire Department, during a talk at Kiwanis on Tuesday. “This fire truck has been ‘saved’ for around 94 years, so it’s meant something to several generations of firefighters. We at the Corinth Fire Department want to continue what our brothers started so many years ago.”

A local floral shop suffered significant property damage as it appears a vehicle ran into it and then drove away.

Newspaper carrier Cindy Leatherwood, of Corinth, was running her morning delivery route at about 3:45 a.m. Tuesday morning, when she noticed the damage to the front of Lee Highway Floral, accord-

ing to a report from Corinth Police Officer Cody Hill.

Leatherwood called police to report the hit and run which caved in a large portion of the front of the shop, located at 1905 Proper Street, in Corinth.

Hill stated he searched for any vehicle parts around the scene of the crime, but was unable to locate any.

Mississippi: 18 school districts on probation for rule violations Associated Press

JACKSON — A total of 18 Mississippi public school districts have been put on probation for breaking state rules.

That includes the Jackson school district, which remains at risk of a state takeover.

The state School Accreditation Commission on Tuesday approved the probation list.

Of the districts, 13 were cited for teachers or professional staff who lack the correct state licenses, meaning they are either unlicensed or

are working outside the fields for which they are licensed.

The commission didn’t strip accreditation from Jackson or any other district.

The state Board of Education has asked Gov. Phil Bryant to declare

an emergency in the 27,000-student Jackson district, allowing a state takeover.

Bryant said he wanted to wait until the district’s letter grade is officially released, a move scheduled to come Thursday.

Politics and the fallen: Trump hasn’t called all families

BY CALVIN WOODWARD AND JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has pulled bereaved military families into a painful political fight of his own making, going so far Tuesday as to cite the death of his chief of staff’s son in Afghanistan to question whether Barack Obama and other presidents did enough to honor the military dead.

He’s boasted that “I think I’ve called every family of someone who’s died,” though The Associated Press found relatives of two soldiers who died overseas during Trump’s presidency who said they never received a call or a letter from him, as well as relatives of a third who did not get a call from him.

The White House said Trump did telephone on Tuesday the families of four soldiers who were

killed in Niger nearly two weeks ago, the issue that had spawned the controversy this week.

“He offered condolences on behalf of a grateful nation and assured them their family’s extraordinary sacrifice to the country will never be forgotten,” said a White House statement.

Contending that Trump’s propensity for a political fight has drifted into “sacred” territory, Democrats and some former government officials have expressed anger at his comments that he, almost alone among presidents, called the families of military members killed in war. They accused him of “inane cruelty” and a “sick game.”

For their part, Gold Star families, which have lost members in wartime, told AP of acts of intimate kindness from two presidents — Obama and George W. Bush — when those commanders

in chief consoled them.

Trump’s posture has been defensive in recent days after he was criticized for not reaching out right away to relatives of the soldiers killed in Niger. On Monday, Trump said he’d written letters that hadn’t yet been mailed; his aides they had been awaiting information on the soldiers before proceeding.

Then Trump stirred things further Tuesday on Fox News radio, saying, “You could ask General Kelly, did he get a call from Obama?”

John Kelly, a Marine general under Obama, is Trump’s chief of staff.

His son, Marine 2nd Lt. Robert Kelly, was killed in Afghanistan in 2010.

John Kelly was not seen at Trump’s public events Tuesday.

A White House official said Obama did not call Kelly after his son’s death but did not say whether the former president

reached out in some other fashion. White House visitor records show Kelly attended a breakfast Obama hosted for Gold Star families six months after his son died. A person familiar with the breakfast — speaking on condition of anonymity because the event was private — said the Kelly family sat at Michelle Obama’s table.

Obama aides said it was difficult this many years later to determine if he had also called Kelly, or when.

Former Obama spokesman Ned Price tweeted: “Kelly, a man of honor & decency, should stop this inane cruelty. He saw upclose just how — & how much — Obama cared for the fallen’s families.”

Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois, an Iraq veteran who lost both legs when her helicopter was attacked, said Obama did right by the fallen.

Board of Trustees that is jointly appointed.

City Attorney Wendell Trapp has been looking into how the situation will be resolved if the boards are unable to reach a consensus. He

was not ready to answer that question on the record Tuesday.

The current term for the seat runs through Nov. 15. The sevenmember board consists of three city appoin-

tees, three county appointees and one joint appointee.

Supervisors made one other board appointment on Monday, naming Bill Avery to a seat on the board of directors of the Alcorn County Human Resource Agency. He replaces Ned Riddell, who is retiring from the board.

for generations of Corinthians and visitors to enjoy.”

With personalized engravings, the bricks are available in sizes of 4 by 8 inches for $50 and 8 by 8 inches for $150. Larger sizes can also be accommodated. The museum board recommends memorializing loved ones or recognizing fire or other emergency personnel.

“We are fired up about saving the city’s antique fire truck,” said museum volunteer Zack Steen.

“The truck is important to Corinth history, and we need the community’s support to save it. If we don’t work towards getting this display housing built, then the truck will continue to sit hidden away in a fire station.”

A multi-use facility is planned to both house the fire truck and provide a second-level viewing platform to watch passing trains and see the famous rail junction.

Fund-raising will likely continue once the goal is met.

“This first $55,000 will construct the housing, and the truck will be saved from the elements and displayed for the community,” said Lee Thurner,

museum board member and engineer for the structure. “Then there will continue to be opportunities to do cosmetic restoration to the truck through funds raised from continuing to sell bricks and hosting fundraisers like the Daily Corinthian Community Yard Sale.”

Once displayed, the fire truck will be on loan to the museum by the City of Corinth.

The Daily Corinthian and Hammond Wrecker Service has also provided support on the project.

The fire engine notoriously arrived in Corinth by rail in 1924, the day before the city’s worst fire in history, which consumed several downtown blocks.

It was frozen to the rail car and was not able to be used to fight the fire.

The truck was retired in 1967.

Financial backing for the project includes a $16,500 matching grant from the Corinth Area CVB and a $7,500 endowment from the Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Group.

The club and several individuals made pledges at Tuesday’s meeting.

girlfriend, Linda McKenzie, 29, of Corinth, according to the report.

Friar said he was walking down Scales Street, turning onto Meigg Street, when someone came from behind a house and shot him. He described a “yellow house,” which police identified as 1320 Meigg Street.

Friar said he did not see the shooter, according to the report.

McKenzie stated that the victim ran to her house on Ross Street, came in and told her he had been shot. McKenzie then drove Friar to the hospital.

Moore contacted Corinth Police Detective Jerry Rogers, who came to the ER and later to the crime scene.

The report went on to state, that once officers began to canvas the area where the shooting took place, the owner of the residence told officers that Friar had driven and parked his vehicle there about an hour before the shooting occurred.

The shooting remains under investigation.

Across the Region Tishomingo County Dennis man charged with grand larceny TISHOMINGO COUNTY – A Dennis man has been charged with grand larceny in Tishomingo County.

Forty-five-year-old Christopher Wayne White of Dennis has been officially charged with grand larceny.

Sheriff deputies responded to a residence on County Road 42 that had been burglarized on Oct. 10. The homeowner informed the deputies that several weapons were taken from the residence as well as other miscellaneous items.

The sheriff’s department along with help from Tishomingo County South-End Constable, Donald Thomas, located the stolen items at a residence on County Road 28 near McDougal Branch. During the course of the investigation, it was learned that the neighbor of the burglarized home, White, had moved the weapons from one location to another. White was arrested and transported to the Tishomingo County Jail.

Investigators are still actively looking for other individuals that may have been involved in the burglary of this residence.

He remains in custody of the Tishomingo County Jail awaiting his bond to be set.

McNairy County County participates in ShakeOut Day

SELMER, Tenn. -- McNairy County will join with others across the nation in the Great Central U.S. ShakeOut on Thursday, Oct. 19.

The day is planned to encourage citizens and businesses to prepare safety measures for a possible earthquake.

The ShakeOut will begin at 10:19 a.m. on Thurday and is expected to have more than 350,000 participating in Tennessee.

Participants are asked to drop to the ground, take cover under a strong table, and hold on as if a major earthquake is taking place. This would be a great time to build a preparedness kit that could help in any emergency situation, not just an earthquake.

Held annually on the third Thursday in October, ShakeOut organizers notes though, like fire drills, the earthquake drill can be scheduled for a date and time more suitable for schools and businesses.

The western part of Tennessee was shaken strongly by the New Madrid, Missouri, earthquake of 1811 - 1812 and by earthquakes in 1843 and 1895. The area has also experienced minor shocks. Additional activity has occurred in the eastern part of the state, near the North Carolina border.

The three great earthquakes that occurred in the Upper Mississippi region near New Madrid in 1811 - 1812 rank among the most significant events in U.S. history. Maximum intensity for each of the large shocks is estimated at XII. The earthquakes help create Reelfoot Lake.

A major earthquake represents what would potentially

be the largest natural disaster ever to occur in the state of Tennessee. Some estimates suggest that a major earthquake in the New Madrid zone would be a nationwide catastrophic event, largely due to the interruption in transportation, communications, fuel supply, and the economic consequences that would be experienced as a result of damage to the infrastructure.

What do you do during the ShakeOut drill? Practice the safest response to an earthquake: • DROP where you are, onto your hands and knees. This position protects you from being knocked down and allows you to stay low and crawl to shelter if it’s nearby. If you have mobility issues, either lock the wheels of your wheelchair or stay seated and bend over.

• COVER your head and neck with one arm and hand. If a sturdy table or desk is nearby, crawl underneath it for shelter.

If no shelter is nearby, crawl next to an interior wall, away from windows.

• HOLD ON until the shaking stops. If you are under a table or desk for shelter, hold onto it with one hand and be ready to move with your shelter if it shifts.

Ripley

Restaurant partners with No Kid Hungry RIPLEY – Visitors to Huddle House will have opportunity to support an important cause for the children in our country, reported the Southern Sentinel.

The Huddle House restaurant chain, including the location in Ripley, has recently partnered with No Kids Hungry, a nationwide organization that focuses on providing healthy food for children in America who are undernourished on a regular basis through programs such as school breakfast and summer feeding programs.

The Huddle House corporation raised and donated a total of $40,000 to No Kid Hungry in 2016 and this year they are rallying guests across the country to help make an even larger impact this year in the fight against child hunger by setting a system-wide fundraising goal of $50,000.

Huddle House is encouraging guests to donate $1 or more to become Golden Waffle Sponsors. All Golden Waffle Sponsors will have their names prominently displayed inside of the restaurant. At the end of the campaign, Huddle House will do a drawing of the submissions and one lucky Golden Waffle Sponsor will win a $500 Huddle House Gift Card.

Pence may be Trump’s best asset

If a metaphor could be used for this White House, it might be a two-sided coin with President Trump the head and Vice President Mike Pence the tail.

The president tends toward the bombastic to get people’s Cal attention and make his points, Thomas while his vice president is calm and measured, sometimes reColumnist sembling a contemplative monk. In many ways they complement each other.

During an interview Thursday, the vice president said tax reform is now the administration’s top domestic priority and that “we have the best opportunity between now and the end of the year to do that.” He believes it will get done.

Why the optimism? Because, he says, “there is broad-based and more than a little bipartisan support for tax relief to get this economy growing again.” Pence thinks the “failure to repeal Obamacare in 2017 has created (an) even greater sense of urgency. There’s a great sense of anticipation among the American public. I think Members of Congress are very aware of that.”

What about Obamacare and the failure of Republicans to repeal and replace it, leading to a number of executive orders (issued Thursday) to address what the president feels is the harm caused by that law?

Pence predicts the Senate will go along with the House next spring when a new budget bill comes up for consideration. “The word we got from Senators (Lisa) Murkowski (R-AK) and (John) McCain (R-AZ) was very favorable toward the Graham-Cassidy bill, which would have repealed the individual mandate, repealed the business mandate and block grant(ed) resources back to the states. Their attitude on the substance was very favorable, but both of them wanted to give the Senate time to go through the committee process, the hearing process, for full floor consideration and amendments.”

What about Iran and the decertification of the nuclear deal made during the Obama administration? Pence said the president considers the deal a “disaster agreement for the United States.” From the White House on Friday, the president announced he was decertifying the deal, imposing new sanctions and asking our allies and Congress to address the deal’s “serious flaws.”

North Korea? Pence notes how “truly remarkable” he believes it is that there is a “global consensus around a commitment to a nuclear-free Korean peninsula. ... What we’ve seen from the Kim regime in recent months is a series of provocations and a nuclear missile test I believe has created an environment that has made it possible for us to forge not only stronger relations with our allies in the region, but given President Trump’s strong relationship with President Xi of China, we’ve seen China take action regarding North Korea that they’ve never taken before (including) cutting off access to financial institutions in China.”

I ask if a nuclear-free Korean peninsula and getting Kim to stop production of nuclear weapons can be achieved without war and get the standard answer the president has given: “We remain hopeful we’ll be able to achieve it by economic and diplomatic means, but all options are on the table.”

As might be expected of a loyal vice president, Pence suggests the president is not getting the credit he thinks he deserves for undoing some of the policies of previous administrations, attempting to loosen the grip of ISIS in Iraq and for his businessman’s approach to government, emphasizing more private-sector jobs and relaxing or eliminating unnecessary regulations that stifle economic growth.

On the way out of the White House Mess where we had lunch, Pence pauses to admire a model of an old ship. To employ a nautical phrase, Mike Pence is a calming influence on sometimes stormy political seas. He may be President Trump’s greatest political and personal asset.

Prayer for today Lord God, help me to understand that true affection is not that which as it gives feels it merits return. May I avoid being selfish and stubborn; and with my affections give peace and joy. Amen.

A verse to share Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. —Psalm 42:11

Corinth, Miss.

Voting Rights Act had a down side, too OXFORD — A case the U.S. Supreme Court will decide this term illustrates what happens when good intentions go bad.

The case is from Wisconsin, which is accused of going too far in injecting political favoritism when drawing voting district lines.

We all learned in civics class this is called gerrymandering, a term coined by the Boston Gazette in 1812 when a salamander-shaped Senate district in Massachusetts had been crafted to support the politics of then-Gov. Elbridge Gerry.

All through U.S. history, a duty of state legislatures at least once every 10 years has been to take a state map and subdivide it. So many districts for the state and U.S. House; so many for the state Senate. (State legislators also define court districts and such; city and county governments draw lines for themselves, school boards, constables…)

Also throughout history, the party with the pencil has had the power to help itself.

Redistricting offers the opportunity to create more voter districts favorable to said majority.

Now, to the nub: In Mississippi, everybody knows that race and partisanship are one and the same. With few exceptions, blacks iden-

tify with the Democratic Party and whites with the Republican Party.

The same Charlie pattern apnaMitchell plies tionally, of Columnist course, but is amplified in states with large minority populations, such as Mississippi.

For some reason, politicians talk around that when it comes to voter districts.

Even the Voting Rights Act of 1965 — which is at the root of today’s difficulties — is vague on the point.

The now-ancient federal law signed by President Lyndon Johnson was a followup to the Civil Rights Act. It was designed to stop the insidious practice in Mississippi and other states of denying black citizens their right to vote.

Section Five of the act took another positive step. It said certain states (and cities and counties) with a racist history in line-drawing could no longer “illegally dilute minority voting strength.”

The law did not specifically require creation of districts where black voters were in the majority. That’s what had to be done, of course, to stop the Legislature and

local governments assuring minority voters would be in the minority in every district of every type.

After lots of fussing, obfuscation and litigation, majority-minority districts were created and for the first time in 100 years, black Mississippians got seats at the table in the Capitol and in courthouses, city halls and school board offices.

That was the up side.

The down side can be illustrated with poker chips.

Say there are nine chips, six green and three red. Create three piles so that reds have a majority in at least one. The result: red marbles have their own pile or a 2-1 majority in another pile. But in any arrangement, greens will have the majority in two piles.

The wonderful intention of the Voting Rights Act was to bring people together, reasoning that if people sat together they’d work together. Instead, silos resulted.

An argument could be made that the good intentions of 1965 actually sparked the extreme divisiveness that exists across the national landscape today.

A Supreme Court decision a few years ago modified and updated the act. Now proof of racial discrimination is required. But Congress will not touch the act or admit

there’s a problem, as there is with so many well-intended but flawed programs — Social Security, Medicare, Affordable Care Act. Instead, they’re all kicked around as political footballs.

There is a solution. California and three other states now have voting districts drawn by independent commissions tasked to meet voter-centered, common sense requirements instead of political goals. So far, Mississippi is one of the majority where politics (aka race) still comes first.

It’s absolutely ridiculous to think that the racial divide will ever be bridged if the seats of public policy tables are filled with black people elected from black districts and white people elected from white districts. No motivation to converse; no motivation to solve challenges; no motivation to seek solutions.

The Supreme Court decision, when it comes, will come from a split court with both sides begging the other to listen to their better angels and play fair. That won’t happen. We’re talking power politics and a systemic problem Congress continues to ignore.

Wicker praises Trump as ’18 Senate race approaches JACKSON — Facing a potential Republican primary battle in 2018, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi is stepping up his praise of President Donald Trump, who won the state with 58 percent of the vote last November.

When Trump spoke to the United Nations in September, Wicker said the president “was unapologetically clear and firm about America’s priorities, namely our resolve to counter a nucleararmed North Korea.”

On proposed tax changes, Wicker said in a Sept. 27 statement: “One of my top priorities is to help President Trump reform our country’s broken tax code and ensure that Mississippi families keep more of what they earn. This particular proposal has the potential to make the economy roar, help job creators, spur innovation, and renew the spirit of the American Dream.”

Last week, Wicker praised Trump for issuing an executive order designed to change some health care regulations.

“President Trump’s actions will help give individuals and families the freedom to find the best rates for health coverage with

increased competition and choice,” Wicker said.

State Sen. Chris McDaniel was Emily backed by Wagster tea party Pettus g r o u p s when he Capitol Dome came close to unseating Mississippi’s senior U.S. senator, Thad Cochran, in a bitter Republican primary in 2014. McDaniel is now considering a 2018 run against Wicker, and McDaniel is being supported by Steve Bannon, a former Trump adviser who is seeking to upend the Republican establishment.

McDaniel told The Associated Press last week that GOP congressional leaders, including Wicker and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, are trying to obstruct Trump on removing a 60-vote filibuster requirement, repealing and replacing the health care law enacted under former President Barack Obama and enacting significant changes to tax laws.

McDaniel also said the GOP leaders are increasing the national debt.

“Just about every conceiv-

able thing McConnell has done is counter to conservative beliefs,” McDaniel said.

“Roger Wicker has been the yes man on that on every single vote.”

McDaniel said he intends to decide by late October whether to make a Senate run in 2018 or seek a state government office, probably lieutenant governor, in 2019. He said the Senate race has looked more likely since another Bannon-backed candidate, Roy Moore, defeated incumbent U.S. Sen. Luther Strange in the recent Alabama Republican primary.

McDaniel and Wicker differ on an issue that divides Mississippi voters — whether to keep the Confederate battle emblem on the state flag, where it has been since 1894. State flag design won’t be decided by federal lawmakers, but that won’t stop people from asking the candidates about it.

People who voted in a 2001 statewide election chose to keep the flag by about a 2-to-1 margin. But the flag and other Confederate symbols have come under increased scrutiny since June 2015, when a white man who had posed for photos with the Confederate

battle flag killed nine black worshippers in a church in Charleston, South Carolina. Wicker was among a few Mississippi Republican leaders who advocated dropping the symbol from the flag to better represent a state with a 38 percent black population.

After Confederate battle flags were carried when white supremacists rallied this summer in Charlottesville, Virginia, Wicker was asked again about the state banner.

“I’ve said that it would be more unifying if we took the Mississippi flag and put it in a museum and replaced it with something that was more unifying.... That’s still my position,” Wicker said Aug. 14 in Jackson.

Days later, a Wicker ad said the senator opposes the removal of Confederate monuments.

McDaniel advocates keeping the Confederate battle emblem on the flag and keeping the monuments. He said Wicker is “playing political games.”

Cochran’s illness shows risks to GOP leaders of aging Senate

BY ALAN FRAM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Top Republicans coping with a razor-thin majority in the Senate as they try pushing a partisan agenda are running smack into another complication — the sheer age and health issues of some senators.

One of those ailing senators — 79-year-old Thad Cochran of Mississippi — was back in Washington Tuesday after a month of treatment at home. A statement said he still had urological issues and his treatment “could affect his work schedule.� A day earlier, aides had said Cochran would return to the Senate “when his health permits.�

Cochran’s prolonged absence underscores the challenges of navigating the second-oldest Senate ever. Without him, party leaders could afford just one Republican defector

on a pivotal budget vote this week, and the Appropriations Committee that Cochran chairs hasn’t churned out any spending bills for next year since he was last in Washington in mid-September.

Cochran isn’t the only GOP senator with health issues that have caused them to miss time this year in Washington. In July, the Senate delayed votes for a week on repealing President Barack Obama’s health care law after Sen. John McCain of Arizona, now 81, was diagnosed with brain cancer. And Georgia Sen. Johnny Isakson, 72, was away for two back surgeries early in 2017, two years after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, a degenerative neurological condition.

In addition, a pair of 80-somethings are up for re-election in 2018, one from each party. They’re

among 16 senators facing re-election who come Election Day 2018 will be at least 65 — an age when many people have already retired.

Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, 83, hasn’t announced a final decision on whether he’ll seek an eighth, six-year term next year. On the Democratic side, California’s Dianne Feinstein — at 84 the oldest current senator — has announced she will run again next November. If re-elected, she could serve till she’s 91 — an age reached by only four other senators while in office. “The ability to get things done counts. And the compassion, vigor, and stamina to make a difference counts,� she said last week, as if preemptively fending off questions about her age.

That didn’t stop 50-year-old Kevin De

Leon, president pro tem of the California state Senate, who announced on Sunday his Democratic primary challenge to Feinstein.

Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, who turns 70 in November, was diagnosed with kidney cancer this year but has said she’ll seek re-election next November. Also facing re-election are at least three other cancer survivors: Sens. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., Bill Nelson, D-Fla., and Angus King, I-Maine.

Overall, senators averaged 61.8 years old when the current two-year Congress began in January, according to the Senate Historical Office. That’s tied for second oldest with the Senate that began in 2007. That was surpassed only by the two-year session that began in 2009, when senators averaged 62.7 years of age.

Chinese nationals indicted for making illegal drug

BY SADIE GURMAN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Two Chinese nationals have been indicted on charges they manufactured tons of fentanyl and other powerful narcotics that were then peddled in the United States, killing at least four people and seriously injuring five others, Justice Department officials announced Tuesday.

Authorities said the men controlled one of the most prolific international drug-trafficking organizations but with no extradition treaty with China, the chances are slim they will ever be brought to the U.S. to face the charges.

The men, who are not in custody, are accused of separately running chemical labs in China that produced the drug and other illegal opioids for sale online to Americans who were often unaware of its

potency and susceptible to overdose. At least 21 other people were also indicted on charges they trafficked the drugs across the U.S. and Canada, often through the U.S. mail.

The announcement comes as the Trump administration suffered a setback in its efforts to call attention to the nation’s drug crisis, with its nominee to be the nation’s drug czar withdrawing from consideration following reports that he played a key role in weakening the federal government’s authority to stop companies from distributing opioids.

It also comes amid growing pressure on President Donald Trump to fulfill his pledge to declare the nation’s opioid epidemic a “national emergency,� as a commission he’s convened on the subject has urged him to

do. An initial report from the commission in July noted that the approximate 142 deaths each day from drug overdoses mean the death toll is “equal to September 11th every three weeks.�

A sign of White House interest in the issue, presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway quietly attended Tuesday’s news conference at the Justice Department.

Robert W. Patterson, acting administrator of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, said the Chinese case represents “one of the most significant drug threats facing the country� because they were able to produce a wide array of synthetic drugs and hide their tracks with webbased sales, international shipments and digital currencies like bitcoin.

The Chinese men in-

dicted were Xiaobang Yan, 40, and Jian Zhang, 38, who worked separately but similarly, authorities said.

Yan, who operated at least two chemical plants in China that were capable of producing tons of fentanyl, would monitor drug legislation and law enforcement actions in the U.S., changing the chemical structure of his drugs to avoid prosecution, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said. A 2013 traffic stop in Mississippi unearthed a domestic drug ring linked to Yan. Zhang, along with five Canadians, two people from Florida and New Jersey man, were indicted in North Dakota for conspiracy to import the drugs from Canada and China.

Prosecutors say Zhang ran at least four labs and sold the drug to American customers online.

U.S. faces other threats after IS collapse in Raqqa

BY ROBERT BURNS Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The imminent fall of the Islamic State’s de facto capital leaves America a multitude of tasks to restore stability in the Middle East, starting with pockets of remaining IS resistance in Syria and Iraq.

Then there are the more deeply rooted problems, not fixable by guns or bombs, that allowed extremism to rise and flourish: Syria’s civil war and Iraq’s intractable political, religious and ethnic disputes, which turned violent again this week.

The challenge is more than the U.S. can handle alone. It likely will keep some troops in Iraq for years to come to train and advise the army, police and other members of security forces that imploded when IS fighters swept across the Syrian border and captured Mosul in June 2014.

The militants also have footholds in Afghanistan and beyond.

On Monday, the Pentagon said it used drone aircraft to strike two IS training camps in Yemen, killing dozens.

Syria has been fertile ground for IS, which capitalized on the civil war to expel al-Qaida and more moderate opposition fighters from Raqqa almost four years ago, making the city the capital of its selfdeclared “caliphate.�

The Obama administration sought to stay out of the civil war even as it claimed hundreds of thousands of lives.

The Trump administration has largely stayed on the sidelines of attempts, now led by Russia and Iran, to organize local cease-fires and create so-called “de-escalation zones,� with the exception of one such area near the Israeli and Jordanian borders. But it has been generally supportive of U.N.-led efforts to resurrect stalled political talks aimed at forging a transitional administration.

On the ground in Syria, the administration has redefined America’s priorities to focus primarily on securing military gains and providing immediate reconstruction assistance to restore critical infrastructure and temporary governance.

Trump warns ‘I fight back’ after McCain hits foreign policy

BY KEN THOMAS Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Tuesday warned Sen. John McCain that “I fight back� after McCain questioned “half-baked, spurious nationalism� in America’s foreign policy.

McCain, a former Navy pilot who spent 5½ years in a Vietnam prisoner of war camp and is battling brain cancer, offered a simple response to Trump: “I have faced tougher adversaries.â€?

Trump said in a radio interview with WMAL in Washington, “I’m being very, very nice but at some point I fight back and it won’t be pretty.�

He bemoaned McCain’s decisive vote this past summer in opposition to a GOP bill to dismantle Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act, a move that caused the failure of GOP efforts to repeal and replace “Obamacare.�

In Philadelphia on Monday night, the sixterm Republican senator from Arizona received an award for a lifetime of service and sacrifice to the country. In addition to recalling his more than two decades of mil-

itary service and his imprisonment during the war, McCain took a moment to go a step further than the night’s other speakers, who lamented what many described as a fractured political climate. “To abandon the ideals we have advanced around the globe, to refuse the obligations of international leadership for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems,� he said, “is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history.�

He continued: “We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil.�

Former Vice President Joe Biden presented McCain with the Liberty Medal. Though members of opposing parties, the two men worked together during their time in the Senate. Former President Barack Obama, who defeated McCain in his bid for the presidency in 2008, congratulated the senator on the award in a tweet Monday night.

Hawaii judge blocks Trump’s travel ban HONOLULU — A federal judge in Hawaii blocked the Trump administration Tuesday from enforcing its latest travel ban, just hours before it was set to take effect.

U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson granted Hawaii’s request to temporarily block the policy that was to be implemented starting early Wednesday. He found Trump’s executive order “suffers from precisely the same maladies as its predecessor.”

The judge, appointed by former President Barack Obama, said the new restrictions ignore a federal appeals court ruling that found President Donald Trump’s previous ban exceeds the scope of his authority. The latest version “plainly discriminates based on nationality in the manner that the 9th Circuit has found antithetical to ... the founding principles of this nation,” Watson wrote.

The Trump administration in September announced the restrictions affecting citizens of Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen — and some Venezuelan government officials and their families.

The government has said the new policy was based on an objective assessment of each country’s security situation and willingness to share information with the U.S. Hawaii argued in court documents that

the updated ban is a continuation of Trump’s “promise to exclude Muslims from the United States” despite the addition of two non-majority Muslim countries.

Balloon crash pilot was impaired AUSTIN, Texas — The pilot in the deadliest hot air balloon crash in U.S. history was probably impaired by opioids and sedatives when he ignored weather warnings and flew the ride into a power line, investigators said Tuesday.

Besides Valium and oxycodone, there was a high enough dosage of the over-the-counter antihistamine Benadryl in Alfred “Skip” Nichols’ system to mimic “the impairing effect of a blood-alcohol level” of a drunken driver, said Dr. Nicholas Webster, a National Transportation Safety Board medical officer.

During a meeting in Washington, NTSB revealed its findings about the July 2016 crash near Austin that killed all 16 people aboard.

Investigators scolded the Federal Aviation Administration for lax enforcement of the ballooning industry and recommended that balloon pilots submit to the same medical checks as airplane pilots.

Nichols, 49, had at least four prior convictions for drunken driving, though no alcohol was found in his system after the crash. Investigators said Nichols was told during a weather briefing before the flight that clouds may be a problem. He brushed

off the warning.

New fires break out in California SANTA ROSA, Calif.

— As crews gained on the wildfires in California wine country, new blazes broke out in other parts of the state, including a fire in the mountains above Los Angeles that threatened a historic observatory Tuesday and more flames in the Santa Cruz mountains.

Firefighters on the ground and in the air raced to protect the Mount Wilson Observatory and nearby communications towers from a growing brush fire northeast of LA. The blaze was initially estimated at around 5 acres. The observatory, which has been evacuated, opened in 1917 and houses the 100-inch Hooker Telescope, one of the most advanced telescopes of the first half of the 20th century.

Winds remained light, but conditions were also dry. Crews dropped water on the blaze, which started as a structure fire of some kind.

The parties released a joint statement on Monday afternoon. The Rebels’ former coach — who led the program from 2008 to ‘11 — was alleging a breach of his severance agreement because of false statements he said school officials made during an ongoing NCAA investigation into rules violations by the football program.

The initial federal lawsuit was filed in July during Southeastern Conference football media days. It was eventually dismissed, but refiled in state court last week.

Nutt received an apology from the university, but no financial details were disclosed.

“Certain statements made by university employees in January 2016 appear to have contributed to misleading media reports about Coach Nutt,” the university said in the statement. “To the extent any such statements harmed Coach Nutt’s reputation, the university apologizes, as this was not the intent.

Multi-state crime suspect sentenced for shooting PRATT, Kan. — A man suspected of killing or wounding people in Mississippi, New Mexico and Kansas has been sentenced in Kansas.

Local media report Alex Deaton was sentenced Monday to nearly 13 years in prison and $4,000 in restitution for shooting a Pratt convenience store clerk in March.

Deaton pleaded guilty in July to attempted firstdegree murder and aggravated robbery.

He’s charged in Brandon, Mississippi, with first-degree murder, auto theft, and drive-by shooting. He’s accused of strangling his girlfriend, stealing her car, and shooting a jogger in February.

He’s also suspected of killing a woman near Philadelphia, Mississippi.

Police say Deaton then carjacked a New Mexico couple before fleeing to Kansas and shooting the clerk.

Pratt County District Attorney Tracey Beverlin says she doesn’t know when Deaton will go to Mississippi.

Plans to attend bachelor party cause man’s girlfriend angst

D E A R ABBY: My boyfriend of two years will be attending a bachelor party in Las Vegas.

Abigail We’ve never any isVan Buren had sues of infidelity, yet I Dear Abby can’t help but feel anxious about his upcoming trip. I know the scene that exists in Vegas — I’m in my mid-20s and I enjoyed my trips there when I was younger and single.

I’m worried about him and his friends going to strip clubs, topless pool parties, etc. I don’t mind him enjoying a trip and going out with the boys, but I think attending an event with nudity is disrespectful to the other person when you’re in a long-term, serious relationship. I don’t want him to feel he has to tell his friends he can’t go to those things. What are your thoughts on this? — WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS ...

DEAR WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS: You and your boyfriend are both adults. Viewing topless entertainment or attending a topless pool party is not infidelity. If he hasn’t given you any reason to worry so far, give him the benefit of the doubt.

P.S. By the way, I have heard

that some bachelorette parties can be equally wild. Do you plan to swear off them yourself?

DEAR ABBY: My wife hates Facebook. She has always hated it and never signed up. I have had an account since the site began and maintain many connections with friends, family members who live far away, old teachers — even my in-laws.

I don’t discuss it with my wife much because it makes her angry.

I’m not constantly on it, and it’s not like I’m doing anything bad.

But if she hears from a friend about a funny or insightful comment I made on Facebook, we end up getting into a huge argument because she insists I have to delete my account. The argument always ends with her saying, “You will delete it because I hate it!”

I don’t want to delete my Facebook page, and I hate arguing with my wife. What should I do?

— “LIKES” FACEBOOK IN RALEIGH, N.C. DEAR “LIKES” FACEBOOK: Try to get to the bottom of why she finds your staying in touch with these people threatening, because it appears you married someone who is very controlling.

She is your spouse, not your jailer. If you want to participate in social media, continue to do so.

Although you didn’t mention it, I can’t help but wonder if her

jealousy and possessiveness have affected other areas of your life. If that’s the case, talk about it with a licensed marriage and family therapist before it drives the two of you apart. If she won’t go with you, go alone.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a doctor. I give free medical advice to my cousin and her mother several times a month, and have for quite some time now. I do it free of charge because we are family and there’s a close bond between us.

My cousin works in marketing, so I asked her if she could help me design my presentation card. She replied that she would give me three designs to choose from, and it would cost roughly $100. I feel it’s wrong for her to charge me for her service since I’ve never charged her. — FREE OF CHARGE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR FREE OF CHARGE: It’s possible your cousin was asking to be reimbursed for the cost of the MATERIALS involved in creating the cards for you. Before you allow yourself to get into a snit, perhaps you should clarify exactly what you would be paying for.

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

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Just because the solution is neat and plausible doesn’t make it right. You’ll investigate a little deeper, put theories to the test, ask opinions of the young, fresh faces and old-timers and, finally, get to the bottom of this.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You once felt so anchored into a certain belief system that you now, for reasons that are still forming, are starting to doubt.

Let this be a sign that your mind is open, as great minds tend to be.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Your quickness to laugh might get you in trouble every once in a while, but usually it’s an asset.

You find that it’s just easier to get things done when you have a sense of humor about them.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Like a child who loads up a plate at the buffet table and then can’t eat nearly the quantity, you’ve ambitions you may not be able to digest. So go in slowly. You can always go back for more later if you need to.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Every

single person on the earth has had past misfortunes, even a newborn baby (birth is no picnic). So you’ll be slow to call anyone out, honk your horn in traffic or get overly frustrated with the general inconvenience of other people.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There are many things you can give a person that do not cost money and are in fact more valuable than money. Hope, kindness, attention and affection are free, and you’ll wisely be generous with them now.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The advances in thought come when you mix categories. This could mean genres, disciplines, cultures, genders, ages and more.

Cross-pollination will bring the best solutions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You’re at a crucial juncture in a project or relationship. You can’t stay where you stand now, but there’s something blocking the path, too. Still, you can either find a way to move forward or find an excuse not to.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Some of the work you’ve been doing is unnecessary.

That’s OK! You couldn’t have known what was necessary before you started. As you drop the superfluous actions, you’ll get faster and more elegant.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Just because a person isn’t unkind doesn’t mean that person is good or right for you. Neglect is often worse than meanness. You deserve respect, attention and support. Are you getting enough of that?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even though there are so many miracles around for you to appreciate, not everything can be profound, because that would mean that nothing is. A new sense of purpose will help you prioritize and focus accordingly.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Measure the distance between you and the outcome you now desire to see if it’s even possible to get there in one move, because today’s problem isn’t like a ladder; it’s more like a chasm.

It can’t be bridged in two steps.

Today

Economic snapshot The Federal Reserve releases its latest Beige Book today.

The report is a snapshot of business conditions in each of the Fed’s 12 regional bank districts. September’s Beige Book showed that economic activity expanded at a modest to moderate pace across all the Fed’s bank districts in July and August. However, the report was based on information primarily collected before Hurricane Harvey struck the Gulf Coast.

Black Monday’s reminder

Are you ready for a 20 percent drop in the stock market?

Neither were investors 30 years ago, but that’s what happened on “Black Monday,” when the Standard & Poor’s 500 index plunged by 20.5 percent on Oct. 19, 1987. Academics are still debating the precise causes for the drop, but regardless of the reasons, it’s a searing reminder of how volatile stocks can be.

What’s unusual is how calm the market has been recently. The worst day this year was a drop of 1.8 percent, and the calmness is remarkable even when looking at longer stretches of time. The last time the S&P 500 had a pullback of even 5 percent was the summer of

2016. That’s when the index lost 5 percent over the course of a few weeks, punctuated by the U.K. vote to leave the European Union.

Only three times before has the market gone so long without a 5 percent pullback: in 1963-65, 1992-94 and 1994-96, according to LPL Research.

Now, investors don’t necessarily need to gird themselves for another Black Monday. But they should know that a drop of 5 percent or even 10 percent over the course of a few weeks or months is not only possible but likely. Going back to 1950, the S&P 500 has had a pullback of at least 10 percent at some point in more than half the years.

The stock market has been remarkably smooth recently...

... but investors were thinking the same thing 30 years ago.

success on restrictorplate tracks is taking advantage of the breaks one gets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d love to be able to pat yourself on the back and say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all skill, but there is some luck thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s involved in this,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that drivers often have more bad luck than good in plate races. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You know when you come here that probably three out of every four races Brad Keselowski and his No. 2 Ford youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to get managed to avoid serious damage after caught up in a wreck three late raFe wreFks thinned the Ă&#x20AC;eld to or something like just over a dozen cars on the track at the that happens. But Ă&#x20AC;nish. the races where you have the good fortune, where you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get caught up in a wreck or you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have something break or any of those things, you have to take those races, run up front and win them. And I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to do.â&#x20AC;?

By avoiding crashes, Keselowski was able to overcome the setback due to his radio change and was leading when the 14 drivers still running took the green ďŹ&#x201A;ag for the ďŹ nal time.

Ryan Newman passed Keselowski and led until the ďŹ nal lap, when Keselowski surged ahead to take the win by a margin of a few feet.

Newman, who ďŹ nished second over Trevor Bayne, Joey Logano and Aric Almirola, said his No. 31 Chevrolet wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much of a match for the Team Penske duo of Keselowskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 2 Ford and Loganoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 22 â&#x20AC;&#x153;I kept my foot in it and did what I thought was right,â&#x20AC;? Newman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I basically got double-teamed and the 2 and the 22 got a good run past me. ... â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not the end result that 7he Ă&#x20AC;rst of three wrecks to bring out the red Ă ag involved several Slayoff contenders including -immie we wanted, but a good per-ohnson Kyle Busch 0artin 7rue[ -r. and Kevin +arvick among many others. formance.â&#x20AC;?

The grandstands were packed at Talladega Superspeedway for Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alabama 500, as fans came to witness Dale Earnhardt Jr.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last race on a very special track for him and his family. Those fans left happy, having witnessed a strong run by Earnhardt, a trio of pointsscrambling multi-car crashes, miscues by some of the sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most talented drivers and a strong comeback to victory by one of Earnhardtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s protegees, Brad Keselowski.

Earnhardt, who has struggled to be competitive for most of his ďŹ nal season, started from the pole and contended for the win all the way until the ďŹ nal lap before ďŹ nishing seventh.

Martin Truex Jr., who has dominated the Cup Series this season, was never really a contender for victory and made a rare driving mistake, triggering a 16-car pileup that saw him and six other playoff drivers receive considerable damage.

Keselowski, who got his big career break when Earnhardt hired him to race in the XďŹ nity Series â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and who carried a â&#x20AC;&#x153;#Cheers2DaleJr.â&#x20AC;? message on his car on Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; came away with the victory after seeming to be out of contention following a pit stop to repair the radio in his No. 2 Ford that left him in 30th place with a little more than 30 laps to run.

Truex, who is assured of advancing to the Round of Eight due to his win the week before at Charlotte, came to Talladega with no pressure and hoped to add another win to his total for the season.

But he was just a mid-pack driver before the 16-car crash that ended his day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We deďŹ nitively had nothing to lose today, but at the same time, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be the person who causes others problems,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wish I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make that mistake.â&#x20AC;?

Keselowski, who now has ďŹ ve victories at Talladega, said the key to

Parker Kligerman, a part-time NASCAR driver who is building a career on the air with NBC, starred in a trucks race broadcast by network rival Fox on Saturday afternoon.

Kligerman, driving for the No. 75 Chevrolet, which is one of the sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s older teams, surged ahead of Camping World Truck Series points leader Christopher Bell with two laps remaining in the Fredâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 250 race at Talladega to get his second career victory in 68 career Truck Series starts. He got the other victory at Talladega in 2012, driving for the nowdefunct Red Horse Racing.

Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s triumph was the first major one for the No. 75 team, owned by Charlie Henderson, since Rick Wilson won an Xfinity Series race at Dover in 1989.

Henderson was one of the original team owners when the Xfinity Series, then known as the Busch Series, was formed in 1982. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all a blur,â&#x20AC;? Kligerman, 27, said of the closing laps of the 250, which ended under caution after a last-lap wreck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each corner youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re making six decisions, and they happened to work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just crazy.â&#x20AC;?

Bell finished second ahead of Myatt Snider, Grant Enfinger and Austin Cindric.

Behind the leaders, the drama focused on the Truck Series playoffs and which two drivers would be dropped as the series moves on to the Round of Six. John Hunter Nemechek secured the final spot over Chase Briscoe by driving to a sixth-place finish in a truck badly damaged in a midrace wreck. Briscoe, who spent 10 laps in the garage getting an oil leak repaired, returned to the track and finished the race, but failed to advance to the next round.

Kaz Grala also did not advance due to his involvement in a multi-car crash on Lap 20.

Joining Nemechek in the final round are Christopher Bell, Austin Cindric, Johnny Sauter, Ben Rhodes and Matt Crafton.

NUMERICALLY SPEAKING

Junior takes it all in during his final Talladega race weekend would be like running that thing around it 180, 190 miles an hour.â&#x20AC;?

Earnhardt said he is quite familiar with the old No. 2, last raced in the 1980 season finale at Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ontario Motor Speedway.

He said it sat in his grandmother Martha Earnhardtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backyard for years before his father had it restored and sent to the museum in Talladega.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final weekend at Talladega Superspeedway as a Cup driver was a memorable one even from Friday morning until the checkered flag fell on Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alabama 500.

His weekend began with officials from the speedway and the adjacent International Motorsports Hall of Fame presenting him with the yellow-and-blue No. 2 Chevrolet Monte Carlo that his late father raced in 1979 and 1980.

It ended with a seventh-place finish in a race that saw him escape major damage in several multi-car crashes. Earnhardt also won the pole and led seven laps in the early going, but damage to the No. 88 Chevrolet at the end prevented him from challenging for the win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would have loved to have won the race for all the fans that come out here,â&#x20AC;? Earnhardt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know a lot of folks came to see this race just for the fact that it was my last plate race, and trust me, I wanted to win it for all those folks more than myself, but just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it done.â&#x20AC;?

Earnhardt seemed especially appreciative of the permanent loan of the historic car as a going-away present. Like his father, Earnhardt Jr. has been a big winner and fan favorite at the giant Alabama track. The late Dale Earnhardt Sr. had 10 Cup wins at Talladega, and Junior had six.

After the presentation, Earnhardt took the car for a slow trip around the speedway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was fun,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I drove it through the garage, so all the guys could see it. It was pretty neat just trying to imagine what it

Career top-10 finishes at Talladega for Alabama 500 runner-up Ryan Newman

As smoke clears from Talladega, playoff contenders must prepare for elimination race at Kansas Points standings and race results from Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alabama 500 at Talladega Superspeedway.

1. MARTIN TRUEX JR. 3,120 points (finished 23rd)

Last year Truex saw a bad day at Talladega eliminate him from the playoffs. This year his bad day didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter, because his win the week before at Charlotte assures him of advancing to the Round of Eight. He came to Talladega seeking a win, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come close. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could never even get to the lead all day,â&#x20AC;? he said.

2. BRAD KESELOWSKI 3,101 points (finished first)

Keselowski continued to work his Talladega magic by scoring his fifth career win at the Alabama track. It was his 24th career Cup victory, and it guarantees him a berth in the Round of Eight, which begins following this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race at Kansas Speedway.

3. KYLE LARSON 3,096 (finished 13th)

Like many of his fellow playoff drivers, Larson was swept up in a multi-car crash. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pretty crazy day, but a typical Talladega,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just need to go to Kansas and have a solid race. A top10 run will be all we need to do, probably.â&#x20AC;?

4. KEVIN HARVICK 3,089 points (finished 20th)

Harvick was involved in two multi-car crashes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just a bad weekend,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Busch Light Ford wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as good as we needed. ... We were on defense the whole time and wound up wrecked twice, so not a good weekend.â&#x20AC;?

5. DENNY HAMLIN 3,088 points (finished sixth)

Hamlin had a good points day, but wanted more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You always want to win,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care about the points. ... The three big wrecks that happened, they all started in front of us and somehow we got through every time, so it was quite amazing. Still a good day overall, but wish we had a little more.â&#x20AC;?

6. CHASE ELLIOTT 3,087 points (finished 16th)

Elliott was trying to pass Daniel Suarez and Kyle Larson for the lead on Lap 184 of a scheduled 188 but wound up wrecked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got on the inside of Daniel, and Kyle had left me enough room from the bottom to get there,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guess [Suarez] saw me in time. I had a really big run coming, and it was the time of day to go, so we went.â&#x20AC;?

7. RYAN BLANEY 3,076 points (finished 18th)

Blaney scored 18 stage points plus one playoff point for winning the second 55-lap stage. Those bonus points helped take the sting out of a late crash that took away a chance to contend for victory. Because of his stage points and the troubles experienced by his playoff competitors, he moved up four spots in the standings.

8. JIMMIE JOHNSON 3,074 points (finished 24th)

Collected in a Lap 172 crash, Johnson took a hard lick, physically and in the points standings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It knocked the wind out of me for sure,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that he disputed a decision by NASCAR officials who said his team violated the rules by working on his car during a red-flag period.

9. KYLE BUSCH 3,067 points (finished 27th)

He was one of six playoff drivers involved in a 16-car crash on Lap 172. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought when I cleared the 38 (David Ragan) I was home free of it and then had another one come up from the left side,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just hate it for my guys â&#x20AC;Ś Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just have to go on and go to Kansas now.â&#x20AC;?

10. MATT KENSETH 3,066 points (finished 14th)

Like many of his playoff peers, he was part of a crash. He lost two laps, made up one of them and was still running at the finish, although he was the last in line when the race ended.

11. RICKY STENHOUSE JR. 3,052 points (finished 26th)

He was going for his second straight Talladega win and third straight restrictor-plate victory but wound up crashed instead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt like we had a really fast Sunny D Ford to get up there and contend for a win and put on a good show for all these fans that came out,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bummer we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to do it.â&#x20AC;?

12. JAMIE MCMURRAY 3,045 points (finished 37th)

McMurray was the first of the playoff contenders to be eliminated in a crash, and accordingly, he took the biggest hit, pointswise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing you can do about it,â&#x20AC;? he said after wrecking while trying to enter pit road. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of Talladega. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go to Kansas and do our best.â&#x20AC;?

Tull cards ace The one thing great athletes possess Kent’s Corner at Hillandale

Sam Tull recently had a hole-in-one on Hillandale’s challenging No. 16 partial island green.

Playing from the senior tee, Tull recorded his ace from 101 yards using his hybrid 6-iron. Witnessing the shot were playing partners Rick Miller, Bill Stone, Dennis Bumpas and David Curry.

Hillandale golf course is a pay-asyou-play facility open to the public.

The SEC football page will be back to take a look at this week’s game’s, including Ole Miss facing LSU and Mississippi State taking on Kentucky.

Plus we’ll have proof positive of how things went down at Northeast’s Late Night Madness hoops kickoff event.

Check out all this and more in Thursday’s print edition of the Daily Corinthian sports pages.

Sports is a great thing.

Sometimes it’s simply incredible.

I love to watch scenes involving incredulous catches, passes, blocks, shots and homeruns that make even the most novice of sports fans stand up and take notice.

Everyone loves the inKent credible. Who ever forMohundro could get Bo JackKent’s Corner son climbing the wall and making one of the most memorable catches in baseball history?

Growing up an athlete I thoroughly enjoyed watching my sports heroes make these kinds of plays and making it look easy. Players like Archie Manning, Reggie Jackson, Roger Staubach, Magic Johnson, Dr. J Julius Erving, Bob Gibson and others all fascinated me.

But not even I stopped and gave a minute’s thought to a crippling attitude that could have hindered these and countless others from becoming just an average athlete instead of superstar’s.

Too many up-and-coming players in this era are displaying an attitude of complacency that could very well keep them from developing to their fullest potetntial.

I’m talking about something that resides in each and every one of us if we’ll just open up and let it break free.

I’m talking about grit.

The epic and memorable John Wayne Western “True Grit” is called that for a reason.

Grit is properly defined as ‘a firmness of mind or spirit: unyielding courage in the face of hardship or danger.’

Synonyms for grit include backbone, constancy, guts, spunk and intestinal forti-

tude. These are words that describe a person who has a goal and won’t let anything or anyone stop them.

I truly believe one reason for the high rate of crime in our country is based partly on this very thing. If people would set their goals higher than robbing and killing to make their money this nation would be a lot more stable and successful.

But we’re talking about sports and how grit should be a part of it.

Be honest— doesn’t it make you smile and feel better when you see an athlete accomplish at a high level or not let an obstacle stand in the way of their success? I enjoy watching ‘gritty’ players in any sport. It doesn’t matter if I understand the sport or not: if I see someone rising up and meeting challenges head on it gives me a warm feeling.

Olympic athletes certainly must possess grit and spunk to make it as far as they do.

I don’t believe these type of athletes could be that successful without it.

On the other hand, when I see someone simply giving up or not trying as hard as they should I’m certain that comes from a lack of proper motivation and training. I was fortunate to have coaches that drove us to be our best but it was up to us to ‘want’ to be the best.

It’s all a mater of attitude and what we really want.

I can assure you if I ‘really’ want something I’ll do whatever it takes to get it. I may not get what I want but it won’t be from a lack of effort. So when I see an athlete, especially those earning a living in a particular sport, not go as hard as they should go or try as hard as they should try it gets under my skin.

I can’t imagine making a living at something I love and not doing my best. I’m no longer an athlete but I have a Please see CORNER | 13A

The Corinth High School volleyball team visited the West Clinic and mammography unit at Magnolia Regional Health Center Tuesday. They delivered snack baskets and water to patients as they waited for their treatment. They’re pictured here with some of those baskets as they pose with nurses at the clinic.

Corinth volleyball team visits West Clinic

BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

October is, and has been since the 1980s, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month nationwide and has become synonomous with the pink ribbon worn to honor those who have suffered from the devestating disease.

Many have died from its effects but with the recent advances and successes in treatment have allowed others to enjoy life and it’s beauty.

Throughout this month you have no doubt seen pink being worn by sports teams, cheerleaders, supporters and others in hopes of finding a cure. But Corinth High

School volleyball coach Kelly Wright wanted to take another step so that her players could see first-hand what it’s all about.

They visited the West Clinic and mammography unit at Magnolia Regional Health Center on Tuesday and delivered snack baskets and water to the patients awaiting and undergoing treatment.

“We wanted to do more than just wear a pink ribbon,” said Wright. “I wanted the girls to be able to see that life is larger than high school, volleyball or anything else we might be involved in. Sometimes we get so caught up in the little things but it’s more

important to step out and see what the big picture is all about.”

The Lady Warriors donned their pink once more and delivered baskets filled with snacks they had prepared themselves along with cold bottled water’s to the patients.

“They were able to see firsthand how all the equipement used in treatment works and what these patients have to go thru on a daily basis,” Wright continued. “The nurses and everyone at the clinic were fabulous to us and made us feel welcome.”

“They have a bell outside the clinic that patients ring

when they complete their final treatment,” said Wright.

“They asked the girls if they wanted to ring it and that it would be OK but none of them did. They all said that bell should only be rung by the ones who deserve to ring it— the cancer patients themselves.”

“It gave them a whole new perspective as to what’s really important in life,” Wright stated.

The team wore pink jerseys with names of those that were friends or family members that have battled breast cancer a couple weeks Please see CLINIC | 13A

Cut down by Yankees, Astros turn to Keuchel in ALCS Game 5

BY BEN WALKER Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Houston Astros kept summoning pitchers from the bullpen in a hurry, but it didn’t matter. Not on this night, not in a ballpark that kept pulsating with every pitch.

No matter who manager A.J. Hinch signaled for, the New York Yankees would not be stopped. Somehow, the Astros squandered a late four-run lead and fell 6-4 Tuesday, and now find themselves tied at two games apiece in the AL Championship Series. At least Hinch’s next move is an easy call: Bring on the beard.

Dallas Keuchel will take the mound Wednesday in Game 5, with Houston hoping he can extend his most remarkable run against the Yankees.

“This is what we play

for,” he said, hours before the Astros blew a tremendous chance to move within one win of the World Series.

Keuchel has been almost automatic against the Yankees, especially in October.

The lefty ace pitched seven shutout innings and struck out 10 to win the opener. He threw six scoreless innings to win the 2015 AL Wild-Card game at Yankee Stadium.

Overall, he has a 1.09 ERA in 57 2-3 innings against the Yanks. Oh, and he hasn’t given up a home run in that span.

Keuchel will once again face Masahiro Tanaka in a rematch of Game 1, won by Houston 2-1 at Minute Maid Park.

“We haven’t really done a whole lot off him,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said after this stirring victory.

CORNER CONTINUED FROM 12A

job that to me is the next best thing.

I get to cover and write about sports and the very athletes I’m referring to now. And I’ve been blessed in a large way.

I’ve met players such as Shaquille O’Neal, Eli Manning, John Fourcade and more doing this for a living. And I can assure you I always try my very best to do my job the best I know how.

But if I were to start slacking, falling back, or not caring like I should you’d notice that in a New York minute. I hope I’m never guilty of that.

It thrills me to see young men and women of all ages, but especially school-aged, give it their best shot when they’re on the field or the court.

When I see one of them not giving their best I hope I also see the coach giving them reason to.

My late grandmother used to often say to me “whatever you do in life do it with all you have in

you.” I know that came from her heart but also from her very own experience. She was an athlete when she was younger and was a successful basketball player at the old Gravel Hill and Ramer school’s along with her older sister.

She was trying to teach and remind me that if you wanna be successful in life always give your best. So when I see someone, especially an athlete, fail to do that it miffs me a bit.

Look, I understand we all have our bad moments and there are times when we don’t feel physically like we can perform. I’m not referring to that. I’m talking about an attitude that is portrayed through action due to a lack of fortitude or grit.

So here’s to all of you who always attempt to do your best and play your sport with grit. I’m behind you cheering you on and hoping you succeed at the highest level. ’Til next time…

“All the girls wore names of someone in their family or someone they know that night against Byhalia,” Wright said. “One of our JV players, Brenna Stevenson, wore her grandmother’s

name on her jersey because she has been undergoing treatment.

“Both my grandmothers have battled breast cancer and I wore both their names that night,” said the Corinth coach.

“Their names are Shirley Ches and Peggy Garwood and they both live in North Carolina, where I’m from.”

Use the native beautyberry for fall landscape color which has dark-burgundy berries that remind me of the color of a fine merlot.

Other species of beautyberry are available.

Japanese beautyberry, known scientifically as Callicarpa japonica, has bright-purple berries held out from the branches on small stems.

And I would be remiss if I didn’t include the beautyberry that I found in 2000, known as Callicarpa dichotoma and called “Duet.” The foliage is variegated, and the plant produces small, white berries in the leaf axils.

Regardless of the variety, beautyberry berries persist into the fall and winter until birds pick the branches clean.

American beautyberry grows up to 4 feet tall and wide. In north Mississippi, this plant may die back to the ground in severe winters. It is a good practice to prune the plant back in early spring to about 6 inches, as this keeps the plant fuller and more compact.

Beautyberry has a loose and open habit.

One plant can be attractive, but a grouping of two or three creates a full cluster.

The plants will cross pollinate, which helps ensure the fullest fruit production.

Beautyberry can tolerate dry soil conditions and part shade, but the healthiest plant and best fruit presentation is in the full sun. Be sure to maintain consistent soil moisture.

While there are different species of beautyberry with differences in mature size and berry arrangement, all are generally referred to as beautyberry in garden centers and nurseries.

In my opinion, what the plants are called doesn’t matter; just be sure to plant one or two in your landscape.

CONCORD, N.H. — I love carving jack-o’lanterns, but after coming downstairs one fall morning to find that an overly ripe pumpkin had “bled” all over my dining room table and ruined it, the idea of decorating with fake gourds does have a certain appeal.

Foam craft pumpkins can be decent standins for the real thing for autumn and Halloween decorating, but their uniformly bright orange color and squat plastic stems sometimes scream “fake.” With a bit of doctoring, however, they can be transformed into reasonably realisticlooking facsimiles that will last year after year.

I found multiple online tutorials for improving the appearance of both the pumpkins and the stems, and I mixed and matched a few to test them out. While all were a big improvement over the originals, I’m not sure they would fool anyone who looks at them closely.

Here’s what I found, with each method rated

Foam craft pumpkins can be decent stand-ins for the real thing for autumn and Halloween decorating, but their uniformly bright orange color and squat plastic stems sometimes scream “fake.” from 1 to 10, with 10 indicating the least expensive, easiest and best results:

Cotton stem/paint This combination was the least expensive of the three, and the pumpkinpainting portion was the easiest. The stem, however, was a challenge. I found a tutorial on the Simple Southern Charm Interiors blog that calls for using Mod Podge brand glue to adhere wisps of cotton to the stem, coating the cotton with glue, shaping the partially-dried result and then painting over the whole thing once it had dried. That proved to be difficult and messy, and I found myself ripping off the cotton and starting over after ending up with a lumpy mess. Once I was done, however, the result did resemble a dried stem,

at least from a distance.

For the pumpkin, I followed instructions on a blog called Average But Inspired. Using brown acrylic craft paint, I painted the grooves of the pumpkin and then wiped it with a cloth to give the pumpkin a slightly aged look.

While the instructions said to wait a few minutes before wiping, my paint dried really fast and I found that I had to wipe fairly quickly to avoid harsh lines. The tutorial also calls for using a bit of cream and green paint on various parts of the pumpkin to add shading.

involved two straightforward techniques: creating a fake stem out of newspaper and masking tape, and brushing the pumpkin with a glaze made out of watereddown paint. If you already have masking tape on hand, this would be the cheapest option, too.

For the pumpkin, I followed a tutorial on a site called Diva of DIY, simply brushing on the glaze and then wiping it off with a piece of cheesecloth.

I liked this technique because it was easy to build up the color by repeating the process, though there were a few spots where the glaze dried a bit too much before I wiped it off and left behind darker smudges. For the stem, I turned to a blog called Domicile 37. The instructions call for fashioning a stem out of rolled-up newspaper, wrapping it in masking tape and then painting it. Making the stem was quick and easy — by far the fastest method of the three I tried. However, the result was the least realistic of the bunch.

After cleaning the mess from Hurricane Nate, I had the chance to participate in two outstanding field days in Mississippi and Louisiana.

I really Gary enjoyed the Bachman plantings at the LSU Southern AgCenter Gardening Hammond Research Station and the Mississippi State University Truck Crops Branch Experiment Station in Crystal Springs.

These events inspired me to share ideas over the next several weeks for great plants to put in your garden and landscape that you will enjoy next fall.

One native shrub that I absolutely adore is the American beautyberry, known scientifically as Callicarpa americana.

While driving, you can frequently see this plant along the edges of wooded areas, but it is used much too infrequently in our home landscapes.

In the spring, if you look closely, you will see pale, pink flowers tucked in the axils of the leaves; this is the space where the leaf meets the branch.

During the summer, our native beautyberry is content to be a background for the showy, hot-weather annual color, but when the temperature starts to drop, look out.

When the beautyberry shrubs start to color up, you cannot miss the almost metallic sheen of the magenta- purple berries wrapped up and down the arching stems in tight clusters.

But you are not limited to purple berries. There are selections with white and pink berries. I really like the Welch’s Pink selection that was first found in west Texas.

It has pastel-pink berries that whiten into the fall. A newer selection for me is Bonner Creek,

For my final project, I found instructions for improving both the pumpkin and stem on the same site, Anderson + Grant. This was the most expensive and laborintensive method, and it required the most specialized products. The results, however, are impressive.

I had to go to a home improvement store to buy the sisal rope required for the stem, and it cost more than the pumpkin. The technique involves gluing bits of rope to the stem, coating it with Mod Podge, dusting it with ground cinnamon and then following up with another coat of glue. A bit messy and time-consuming, but not difficult to pull off.

The same was true for the pumpkin portion, though I bought premixed chalk paint instead of mixing my own as the instructions call for because I couldn’t find plaster of Paris. I covered the pumpkin with three coats of paint and followed up with a dark brown wax that was brushed on and then rubbed off.

The resulting color was muted compared to a real pumpkin. Using brighter orange paint might have made for a more realistic final product.

Tackle tailgating with a robust soup

BY KATIE WORKMAN Associated Press

I am a Football Mom. A New York City Football Mom, so Football Moms from, say, Texas or California might smirk at me a little. That’s OK. I recognize the difference.

But no matter how competitive the league, there is always food involved — for the kids before and after games, and at the game itself for parents and friends who show up no matter the weather.

And what could be more welcome in any of these situations than a robust, hot, rib-sticking soup?

This soup has tailgating or sidelines or post-game meal written all over it. It’s thick from the lentils, and fragrant with cumin and coriander. If you are familiar with Indian food, it might remind you of a soupy version of dal, with satisfying small cubes of chicken nestled

throughout. And it’s made in a slow cooker, which means that if you are serving it after you come home, it’s right there waiting for you, like a warm hug.

Last year was the first time I made this soup, lugging it in the slow cooker to the game. My family thought I had gone one step too far — that setting up a vat of soup on the sidelines was going to seem pretty weird. They were pretty wrong. The ladle was passed from person to person, heavy-duty paper cups were filled, and not a drop was left.

The soup thickens upon sitting, and if you refrigerate it and heat it up the next day, you may want to add more broth or water.

And I would definitely add the fresh parsley at the end.

The football game is purely optional.

Red Lentil, Fennel And Chicken Slow-Cooker Soup Start to finish: 41/2 hours Serves 12

2 onions, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 large fennel bulb, cored and chopped (about 11/2 cups) 2 large carrots, peeled and chopped (about 1 cup) 1/2 pound dried red lentils 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon ground coriander 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced small 5 cups less-sodium chicken broth, plus more if needed 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley, plus more to serve if desired In a large (5-quart or more) slow cooker, combine the onion, garlic, fennel, carrots, lentils, cumin, coriander, chicken, broth and tomatoes.

Season with salt and pepper.

Cook on high for 4 hours. Stir in another cup or two of broth toward the end if it’s thicker than you want it to be. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Stir in the parsley and serve. Sprinkle servings with additional parsley if desired.

Ginger tea makes perfect sore throat soother

BY SARA MOULTON Associated Press

With the arrival of the cold-andcough season, you may be thinking about cooking up a big batch of chicken soup as a cure for what ails us. I love the stuff, too, but I suggest you stock up on some fresh gingerroot instead. Ginger, of course, is one of the many flavors to be found in a stir-fry Asian dish or Indian curry. But used in larger quantities than specified for those recipes, it can become quite spicy.

Of all the home remedies out there, I have found tea, prepared with fresh ginger, to be the most effective.

Ginger Tea is easy to make (and is much cheaper than chicken soup).

Essentially, there’s nothing to do but chop up some fresh gingerroot, combine it with water and let it simmer. When you’re done, you’re looking at a potent, clean-out-yoursinuses beverage that’s ready to sip.

I’ve provided a recipe below, but

there’s no need to be so formal. You can wing it and you’ll be fine.

When making the tea, you might imagine that the first task would be to peel that gnarly gingerroot. In fact, it’s not necessary. Just rinse it well and slice off any bruised spots, then chop it and pile all the chunks into a small saucepan. The more finely it’s chopped, the better — but half-inch chunks are good enough.

Cover the gingerroot with 1 inch of cold water, then bring the tea to a boil. (Starting with cold water pulls out more of the ginger flavor than starting with hot water.) The longer you simmer it, the stronger it becomes. So take a sip after 15 minutes or so and, if you approve, strain out the liquid. You can drink it straight up or embellished with honey and lemon — or even a pinch of cayenne.

If one potful of the tea doesn’t entirely vanquish your cold, you can return the chunks to the saucepan, add fresh water and repeat the

process. A single crop of chopped ginger can keep a pot going all day.

Ginger Tea Start to finish: 25 minutes (10 hands-on) Servings: 4 4 ounces fresh gingerroot 11/2 tablespoons honey, divided, or to taste 4 lemon wedges

Rinse the ginger, cut off any bruised spots and cut it into (roughly) 1/2-inch pieces. In a medium saucepan, combine the ginger with 4 cups cold water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover partially and simmer for 15 minutes. Taste, and if strong enough, strain and pour into mugs.

Add 1 teaspoon honey or more if desired to each portion and serve with a wedge of lemon.

Avoid smoking around babies WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I love reading your column so much that I have decided to ask your opinion on a sensitive issue. I recently found out that I am expecting, which is exciting news! However, we have run into a situation with my mother-inlaw, as she is a smoker. My husband has mentioned to her several times about quitting smoking and has gone as far as telling her she will not baby-sit this child if she continues to smoke. I do agree that I do not want my child around secondhand smoke, as it is dangerous to a baby’s health, not to mention stinky. At this time, my mother-in-law has made no effort to quit the habit.

My question is: Where do you draw the line? I don’t want my child or motherin-law to miss out on any time or memories together. — Fume-Free Dear Fume-Free: The good news is that the pressure isn’t on you here; it’s on your mother-in-law.

Her grandbaby or a cigarette — she has to decide which one she’d like to hold more often.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, secondhand smoke causes “numerous health problems in infants and children, including more frequent and severe asthma attacks, respiratory infections,

Dear Annie

ear infections, and sudden infant death syndrome.”

Studies have shown that secondhand smoke can linger in a house for hours, and there’s a growing body of evidence to suggest that even tobacco residue on a smoker’s hair and clothes can be harmful to children who are in close contact.

Have your husband set some ground rules with his mother that take these factors into account. For example, no holding the baby for two hours after smoking.

He should also let her know that every cigarette takes about 11 minutes off her life — which could add up to hours, weeks and months she’d never see of her granddaughter’s life.

Dear Annie: I would like to ask a favor. Could we all just try to stand in each other’s shoes and gain an appreciation for what someone else is going through?

I am often bothered by what I perceive to be a lack of consideration in others.

One recent example was when several “friends” canceled plans made two months in advance

because something better had come along, even though I had carefully juggled several family members’ medical appointments to accept their invitation. Another was when a medical provider canceled my appointment at the last minute to go golfing, even though I live two hours away and had made staff aware I was using my last day of vacation to schedule this date and confirmed in advance.

Reading the responses you received regarding the woman who was criminally assaulted really got to me. None of us, as far as I can tell, has been the victim of such a harrowing and personal criminal sexual assault. Why the criticism of this poor woman for wanting to request a female nurse? You can’t see a way for some people to receive extra consideration when that might not be necessary for everyone?

I’m glad you gave your original advice, Annie, and I’m glad the medical professionals supported that advice. I’m glad you keep repeating it, too. I’m just sad that you have to. — Leave People Alone Dear Leave People Alone: Thank you for your letter. It is so frustrating when others are inconsiderate of our time — but we can only control ourselves. The best we can do is to nurture in ourselves the qualities we wish to see in others.

VOL. 3 • NO. 90

Church wants to lease Glen gymnasium A local church wants to take over the gym at the shuttered Glendale Elementary School.

Terry Smith, associate minister at Strickland Church of Christ, recently presented a proposal for use of the gym to the Glen Board of Aldermen. The church wants to lease the gym from the town.

Smith said the school had been “very dear to him” and felt the school property should “provide some service of some kind

to the community instead of deteriorating like it would over a period of time if it were closed up.”

Smith worried that the closed school would begin to fall into disrepair or be vandalized. He stressed that his proposal was for the gymnasium and should not affect any of the plans for the school building itself.

The proposal was that the Town of Glen to lease the school gymnasium to the Strickland

Church of Christ for $1.00 a year for the next 10 years. The church would assume responsibility for all upkeep and utilities for the gymnasium during that period of time. At the end of the leasing period, the Town of Glen and Strickland Church of Christ would renegotiate the lease to determine if it is the wish of both parties to continue the lease for another period of time.

Smith pointed out the lease can be negotiated if the board

wanted to try a shorter leasing period. He added that the church’s liability would be able to cover the activities at the gym, but the town would still need to keep insurance on the building.

“I work primarily with the youth, I see a lot of things we could use the gymnasium for and I also see a lot of things where we could provide some activities for the community that could be beneficial such as a youth basketball league,” said

Smith.

The board took no action on the proposal, but agreed to take it under advisement.

In other board business, the board approved the purchase of 10 wreaths for the Wreaths Across America event.

The board approved a motion to pay off the remaining $3,084.00 balance on the Glen Town Hall mortgage, on the stipulation that there are no early pay off penalties incurred.

Aldermen grant cycle shop a cleanup extension Making preparations for the convention of the Mississippi State Federation of Colored Women’s Clubs and Youth Affiliates are (front, from left) Lila Wade, Mary Kelly, Louise Agnew, Shirley Rolland, (back from left) Annie Bean, Flora Hughey and Dorothy Crayton.

Corinth to host the state women’s club convention Corinth is set to host a statewide convention of women’s service clubs.

Members of Corinth’s Taurus Club, Silver Leaf Club and Eva H. Bishop Club are excited to see the convention of the Mississippi State Federation of Colored Women’s Clubs and Youth Affiliates return to Corinth for the first time in many years. It is set for Oct. 27-29 at Crossroads Arena.

“This is big for us,” said Lila Wade of Corinth, president for The First District of Colored Women’s Clubs.

She talked about the clubs’ role in the community.

“These are not just social clubs. They are civic clubs,” said Wade. “Our goal is to uplift our community along with ourselves. Our motto is ‘Lifting as we climb.’ “ The community uplift comes through activities such

“Normally, we would have up to three youth clubs under our direction, but at this particular time, we do not have any youth. Our plans are to try to organize again some younger people in the community so we can get them started back into the federation.”

Lila Wade

President for The First District of Colored Women’s Clubs as youth leadership events and support of the United Negro College Fund, hospice care, the American Cancer Society and other causes.

“Normally, we would have up to three youth clubs under our direction, but at this particular time, we do not have any youth,” said Wade. “Our plans are to try to organize again some younger people in the community so we can

get them started back into the federation.”

Several parts of the event will be open to the public — the welcome program at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 27; the presidential luncheon at noon on Saturday, Oct. 28; and a prayer breakfast at 8 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 29. A ticket is required for the luncheon.

Corinth city school district plans upgrades at campuses Corinth schools are preparing for upgrades at several campuses.

One of the larger projects is the renovation of the auditorium at Corinth Middle School, which will include the creation of six classrooms in a portion of the space. All of the auditorium seating will be taken out and refurbished.

The project will begin with cleaning out the back of the auditorium, followed by removal of ceiling tiles.

The district plans to do work on the gymnasium floors at both Corinth High School and Corinth Middle School. The floors have been deemed not ready for a full refinishing, but the work will include sanding, re-screening and finishing.

“It’s going to give it a little bit of a yellow-er look,” said Childress.

The finish will not be water-based and is expected to be less slippery.

Other projects include: • At the middle school, asbestos removal is planned in a couple of classrooms. One of these may have a wood floor underneath the current vinyl, and it will be restored if possible.

• At the CMS football field, the white field house, the ticket booth and the fence line that goes to the ticket booth will be removed.

Tax collections fall at end of fiscal year Sales tax collections in Corinth ended the fiscal year on a slightly down note.

For the month, Corinth received $489,663.55, a 3.8 percent decline from a year ago. The city closes the fiscal year with $6,208,646.17 from sales tax, a decrease of 1.7 percent, or about $19,300, from the prior fiscal year.

The 2 percent tourism tax on prepared food and lodging brought in $111,950.93 for the month, a decrease of 4.1 percent from a year ago.

The tourism tax closes out the fiscal year with a total of $1,342,169.76, falling about $2,000 short of the prior year

for a decrease of 0.2 percent.

One northeast Mississippi town that did see a banner year in fiscal 2017 is Glen, which enjoyed a 49 percent spike in its sales tax diversion over the past 12 months, likely as the result of a Dollar General opening in the town.

The mid-August diversion for Glen of $3,109.73 brought the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total to $36,437.39, up almost $12,000 from the prior year.

Among a dozen area municipalities, Glen was one of only three to post gains for the month, which reflected sales activity during the month of July. Across the state,

sales tax diversions increased by a modest 0.9 percent.

Local group raises awareness with painted rocks Awareness rocks! #662 Rocks Corinth — a local rock painting group — chose Saturday, Sept.

30, as their “Drop a Rock Day” and the theme was “awareness.”

“We decided to create a ‘drop a rock day’ as something for all to drop a like-minded theme on the same day. We allowed members to vote for what they wanted to paint and the awareness theme won by a landslide,” said Whitney Langston, one of the administrators for the rock painting group.

The admin went on to add that she, and the other administrators, did not want the awareness theme to be based only on cancer.

“There are so many personal stories in our small town that we wanted all their voices to be heard.

We explained to them that they were allowed to paint any awareness that was near and dear to their hearts and if they had a personal testimony on why they chose that awareness, they were welcome to share,” Langston said.

The group members responded with awareness brought to a variety of things such as autism, cerebral palsy, diabetes and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

Tracie Ann Morphis, of Corinth, painted a rock to bring awareness to Kidney Cancer in honor of her husband, Bobby Morphis.

She said, in June 2015, her husband discovered a large knot in his right side and went to the ER. He was diagnosed with Stage 4 Renal Cell Carcinoma, kidney cancer.

“Our life was turned upside down in that instant.

A week later he had his right kidney removed. The following February, we discovered the cancer had spread to his lungs and had part of his right lung removed. Last September, he was sitting in his recliner and raised his right arm to stretch and broke the bone!

“We found out then that the cancer had also spread to the bones in his right arm and leg. That same week he had four surgeries in three days to implant rods into his leg, his arm and have a port put in to do treatments. In October, he had to have a rod implanted into his left arm. Keep in mind he was confined to a wheelchair since September. November rolled around and during one of the 14 radiation treatments he fractured his right hip trying to get on the table for treatment.

On Dec. 5, he underwent another surgery to have his entire right hip and femur replaced. In less

than a year, he has went from being confined to a wheelchair, and not being able to care for himself, to walking only with a cane and babysitting our grandbaby. The masses in his lungs had shown a decrease in size of 30 to 40 percent,” said Morphis.

Dana Smith, of Corinth, chose to paint his rock for autism awareness in honor of his grandson, Haydeen. He said his grandson has severe autism.

When Haydeen was born, he had to have a feeding tube until he was nearly two years old. Now, at the age of six, he still has to eat pureed food. He cannot hear or speak any words.

“He’s now six and is still as hyper and wideopen as in the beginning.

He doesn’t sleep at night like most kids do, so that makes it extremely challenging for his parents.

(God bless them.) It takes a special kind of parent to deal with this dysfunction and chaos. He has the most beautiful heart and kindness about him with hugs and kisses that melt your heart. I’m one proud papaw and honestly don’t know if I’d wanna change him with the exception of that wondering ‘what if,’” said Smith.

Iris Bain, of Blue Mountain, painted rocks to bring awareness to Type 1 diabetes, in honor of her daughter, Emily, and Pregnancy and Infant Loss in honor of her infant son, who died unexpectedly at the age of one month and three days.

“I thank God for my baby bear every day. She is my heart. Life with diabetes is far from easy but I am thankful for having her and being chosen to be her mama, said Bain, regarding her daughter Emily.

Regarding her heartbreaking story dealing with loss of her son, Bain said, “My baby boy was one month and three days old. I will never understand, nor do I want to. I miss him every day and I will never stop loving him.

A piece of our hearts will always live outside our

Whitney Langston painted rocks for lymphoma awareness in honor of her cousin, Ginger Jordan Jones. bodies. Our sweet baby lives with Jesus now and it’s hard every day. Anything is a trigger and there are days I can’t function. It caused me horrible PTSD. By the grace of God, we have made it every day to this point and by His grace we will keep trying,” said Bain.

Jeri Vanderford, of Corinth, painted five rocks to bring awareness to important issues that touched her life. She painted a rock for Parkinson’s Awareness in honor of her father and created a Domestic Violence Awareness rock in honor of her friend Amanda who was murdered at the age of 29 by her estranged husband.

Vanderford rendered a Breast Cancer Awareness rock in honor of her cousin, Michelle Smith Mitchell, and Cancer Awareness for her cousin, Jorja.

She painted an Anorexia Awareness rock in honor of her daughter, who has fought anorexia since she was 12.

Linda Rinehart, of Glen, painted six rocks to bring awareness to medical issues affecting people close to her heart.

She painted: Cerebral Palsy Awareness for her younger brother; Colon

HIGH ON THE HOG

Cancer Awareness for her aunt; Costocondritis Awareness and Polycystic Kidney Disease both for her son; Stroke Awareness for her mother and Lung Cancer Awareness for a dear friend of hers.

Finally, Langston, shared her painted rocks - one for Type 2 Diabetes Awareness, in honor of her step-father, Rodney.

“He was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes at a young age and it’s been slowly destroying his body. Since then, he’s survived a heart attack, two open heart surgeries, kidney failure and is now on dialysis and, most recently this year, he had his leg amputated right below the knee. If you ask him today about his experience, he’ll tell you ‘it’s just a leg!’ He still manages to get out of bed every day and get dressed.

Dana Smith painted and hid rocks for autism awareness in honor of his grandson, Haydeen.

He doesn’t let his disabilities slow him down. He holds his head high and keeps on moving forward and will not miss a day of church,” said Langston.

Her second rock brings awareness to lymphoma.

She painted the rock in honor of her cousin, Ginger Jordan Jones, who is a lymphoma survivor.

“She [Jones] was diag-

First-time 5K fundraiser finds success A first time fundraiser found success raising funds to honor a young girls’ legacy.

Organizers of the First Annual Annalisa Laudadio Love & Encouragement 5K Run/Walk say

that this inaugural event— which was held earlier in the month — managed to profit approximately $1,000, which went to the Annalisa Laudadio Memorial Scholarship.

Extension Center 4-H

Agent Tammy Parker said there were enough participants in the event that she was “encouraged” by the results.

Encouragement 5K Run/ Walk. We had approximately 70 participants for the race, which was encouraging for the first year. I feel confident that the number of participants will increase next year.

“This was a learning year for us as far as the planning process. I cannot express how appreciative the planning committee is for the support from our city and county officials, amazing sponsors, residents who live on the race route, race participants and our 4-H families. Our goal is to host the race each year the second Saturday of September,” said Parker.

The event has been named in honor of Annalisa Laudadio, a 4-H member who died in 2016 of sudden cardiac arrest at the age of 15. She was the daughter of Paolo and Linda Laudadio of Tippah County. She was an active member of the Alcorn County 4-H for 10 of her

“I cannot express how appreciative the planning committee is for the support from our city and county officials, amazing sponsors, residents who live on the race route, race participants and our 4-H families.”

Tammy Parker 15 years.

Laudadio’s mother said they named the scholarship and the race the Love & Encouragement because Annalisa wanted more than anything for people to feel love and encouragement.

“She had a real love for people and she was an encourager ... She really had a heart for the overlooked and to make them feel like they were wanted and important,” said Laudadio, in a previous interview for the Daily Corinthian.

Lisha Hopper, one of the organizers of the 5K, said, “She was a great kid,

and she had always wanted to do a run as part of the ambassador’s group.

She was on the county’s junior council here and that was one of the goals they had discussed. She had always wanted to sponsor a 5K run and this helps continue her legacy.”

Laudadio’s legacy will not only annually fulfill her goal to sponsor a 5K, but benefits from the fundraiser will continue to provide scholarship money for 4-H members in honor of the organization in which she was so heavily involved.

American Legion asked to move flashing LED sign The American Legion is being asked to relocate a recently installed flashing sign.

The issue of the flashing LED sign was brought up at a recent board of aldermen meeting.

“It’s not that we don’t like it – it’s against the law,” said Mayor Tommy Irwin.

Tommy Watson, commander of American Legion Post #6, said his group didn’t like the sign either, after it was installed.

Watson said the legion plans to remove the marquee from the Tate Street building and mount it on regular sign soon to be installed perpendicular to the road in front of the

building. Such a move would make the LED sign legal. Watson said the group needed 90 days to make it happen.

The legion purchased the flashing sign and used member labor to install it.

“We’ve got to have the sign,” said Watson. “It’s our best way of advertising. We’ve got to increase our Bingo attendance, which is our biggest fundraiser.”

Alderman Chip Wood recommended the Legion approach a local sign company for input.

“We are putting a lot of focus on that area (of the city), and all I see is a historical building with a modern day, flashy sign,” he said. “Maybe someone

has a better design idea.”

In other news, Orion Partner Bob Barber provided the board an update on Envision Corinth 2040.

He said the company had promised to present a plan to rewrite the city’s outdated building and development code in September.

“One of our partners working on the proposal was greatly affected by the hurricanes, which has delayed the project,” said Barber.

He said this is step three of four. Next, the group will move from planning to a implementation process.

The city’s building codes were last updated in the 1970s.

eight early high school graduates following a discussion of the impact of the decision on funding.

Alcorn School District Board of Education member Ann Little questioned how early graduates effect the district’s attendance and dollar amounts received from the state for each student.

Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell said such movement in enrollment did alter funding, but did not give details.

“The students want it and the parents have signed off on it and the principals have okayed it,” said board member Ricky Fields. “I can’t see how we can say ‘no’ to a child trying to further their education. This is a good thing.”

The motion passed with Little casting the only “no” vote.

In other news, the Alcorn Central Middle School PTO seeking permission from the board to host three school dances was recently denied.

Board member Randy Wilbanks said the board agreed several years ago to “get out of the dance business” because of liability.

The dances were to be held offsite in the fall, at Christmas and on Valentine’s Day. Attorney Arch Bullard said the PTO could still host the dances offsite

without the board’s OK, but could not fundraise on school grounds.

“My understanding is a teacher was actually taking money and selling tickets at the school as a fundraiser during the school day – this is why it has came before the board,” he said.

Policy states that all fundraisers must come before the board, but approving or not approving a dance isn’t going to necessarily keep the district from being sued, said Bullard.

The motion failed to approve the dances.

The board also approved a slate of hires, including Biggersville High School paraprofessional assistant football coach Scott Gray, assistant football coach Jeff Anglin and assistant football coach Shelby Waddell; Kossuth Middle School Head Jr. High Baseball Coach Jessie Nelson; Kossuth High School Test Coordinator Brandie Lowrey; Alcorn Central Middle School teacher Priscilla Kersey; and Alcorn Central Elementary School Title I teacher aide Jan Neilson.

Due to the resignation of Rose Seaborn, the district promoted Dylan Lambert to the network administrator position.

One of the $10,000 donations is the first of three installments CorinthAlcorn Reaching for Excellence (CARE) will contribute to the city’s Envision 2040 comprehensive planning process.

The other is going toward sidewalk improvements downtown.

CARE is able to dole out 4 percent, or about $60,000, of its approximately $1.5 million endowment fund annually.

Avon Grissom

A home going celebration for Maury Avon Grissom Sr., 84, of Corinth, was held Saturday, Oct. 14 at Magnolia Funeral Home Chapel of Memories. Burial followed at Forrest Memorial Park.

Mr. Grissom passed away after a lengthy illness on Tuesday, Oct.10, 2017. He was born in Alcorn County on Aug. 13, 1933, to the late Jack and Bessie Bonds Grissom. Avon was a Veteran of the U.S. Army, and a diesel mechanic for many years for Conley Brothers, Dean Truck Line, and Kiddy Enterprises. He attended Ridgecrest Baptist Church. The world ran better when Avon Grissom was under its hood.

He worked on his various mechanical projects the same way he lived his life with great enthusiasm. He enjoyed planting and harvesting - his hands, hardened from work, were never too busy to reach for his family in welcome.

Avon loved to go to gospel singings, where the music of his faith rang through his heart as loudly as it did through the building.

His life was lived to the backdrop of highways and bluegrass music never one to feel that he had done enough, Avon loved to take his motorcycle down a road he had never traveled before and wind up somewhere new, his beloved wife always along for the ride. He and his Norma explored the world together for 58 years. After her passing, no road held the same charm for Avon, and no destination was quite as worth the journey without her by his side.

Life was never too much for Avon - but neither was it too little. He was as happy raising his cattle and being around horses as he was on the deck of a cruise liner.

As Avon grew older and travel became more difficult, he looked forward to going to McDonald’s to spend time with his friends, where everyone told stories no one believed, and the room was filled with laughter and conversation. It is with sadness, but great hope, that Avon’s family must

Gary ‘Lunar’ Lomenick

IUKA — Funeral services for Gary L. “Lunar” Lomenick, 64, were held Tuesday, Oct. 10 at Iuka United Methodist Church.

Emma Grace and Lily Reese, whom he delighted in spoiling, pestering, and picking at. His love knew no bounds, nor did his good-natured badgering.

He was a lineman the first half of his career and managed meters and substations the last half during his career with the Tishomingo County Electric Power Association, retiring in 2015 after 37 years of service. Lunar loved his years at TCEPA and all the challenges and successes it brought.

He truly valued the professional and personal relationships that were fostered over his many

years there. After his retirement, “Coffee with the guys” at the warehouse was still a weekly occurrence, and one that he reveled in.

A teller of prodigious stories, half of everything Lunar said may have been true. He was a Boy Scout in his youth, and was a Scout Master as an adult. After his boys were grown, Lunar still volunteered his time as Cub Scout Leader, continuing to help educate others kids in an organization he loved and believed in.

Lunar’s interests kept him busy, starting many projects and even finishing a few. He could always be found on his tractor, in his shop working on various metal or wood projects, or complaining about yet another five gallon bucket of green beans that needed picked from his garden.

With the exception of a few years, Gary spent his life in Iuka, a town he loved in the state he loved.

He was a proud Mississippian and a proud American who flew Old Glory outside his home.

Gary was not a perfect man, but he always went out of his way to help others, and loved those around him completely, even when struggling to show it.

Cutshall Funeral Home of Iuka was entrusted with arrangements.
