A Walnut woman was killled and three more family members of a white Chevrolet Impala were also hurt following a three-vehicle accident around 3:45 p.m. Saturday at the inter-

section of Salem Road and U.S. 72 East in Corinth.

Alcorn County Coroner Jay Jones identified the victim as 44-year-old Theresa Lahey of Walnut. He said she was pronounced dead at 5:02 p.m. in the Magnolia Regional Medical

United Blood Services is out for blood.

The organization is highlighting the need for blood donations during the summer travel season as they focus on making sure plenty of the lifesaving fluid is available for hospitals in Northeast Mississippi.

The summer months are a tough time for recruiting blood donors due to many regular donors taking trips and having other obligations that get them out of their normal routine, explained UBS Donor Recruitment Representative Toni Gough.

At the same time, more travel during summer months means an overall spike in the number of traffic accidents boosting the demand for blood products.

“It’s a really difficult time

and there’s always more need,” she said.

UBS is the primary provider of blood and blood products for hospitals in Northeast Mississippi including Magnolia Regional Health Center, Baptist Memorial Hospital-Booneville and North Mississippi Medical Center.

The blood collected by UBS stays in the region and helps provide lifesaving care for people in the area, said Gough.

This is an important distinction because there are organizations who conduct blood drives in the area but primarily serve other regions in the state and rarely supply any blood or blood products to the local region, she said.

“It’s super important for people to know where their blood is going when they donate,” she said.

Del Phillips makes ‘most influential’ list When Director of Schools Dr. Del Phillips, a Mississippi native, arrived in Tennessee in June 2011 to take the helm of Sumner County’s public education system, many wondered what changes he would make and how long he might stay.

But Sumner’s top educator made strides his second year on the job by putting high-quality education into the local spotlight.

Phillips in the past year rolled out a progressive plan to give students a head start in college and a pathway to a specialized field by launching focus

Editor’s Note Alcorn County Native Dr. Del Phillips III was one of 25 people named to the “Sumner County’s Most Influential” 2013 Edition by the Gallatin News Examiner / Hendersonville Star News. The story by education reporter Jennifer Easton published March 15 is being reprinted with permission. Phillips is a 1989 graduate of Alcorn Central High School and is the son of Ruth Ann Phillips and the late Roy Phillips Jr. academies at the county’s high schools. He later redirected the plan after surveys showed parents favored a curriculum focused on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

In his first year on the job, Phillips received an 85 percent overall approval rating from school board members. Under his watch, Sum-

Police Department adds Chevy Tahoes to its fleet

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

A pair of police edition Chevy Tahoes are the newest additions to the Corinth Police Department Fleet.

The Tahoes are replacements for the discontinued Ford Crown Victoria cruisers, said Police Chief David Lancaster.

The new cruisers cost approximately $25,000 through a state contract, as opposed to the starting suggested retail price of $40,000. The price tag is comparable to other new police cruisers on the market, Lancaster said.

Another reason it makes sense to purchase the Tahoes is equipment compatibility. “A big benefit of the Tahoes is that most of our equipment from the Crown Victorias will fit in the Tahoes,� said Lan-

Finding a replacement for the classic Crown Vic has been a challenge, Lancaster said. The Corinth PD first went with Dodge Chargers, but the Chargers are too small for comfortable use by taller officers —

including one 6-foot 7-inch local policeman.

The spacious Tahoes are much more comfortable than the Chargers, Lancaster said, especially for officers who pull 12-hour shifts in their patrol cars.

The new SUVs will also be able to handle training duties that require two officers to share a vehicle.

The Jeep had damage down the driver’s side along with a flat tire on the back. The Impala had major damage to the rear while the Trailblazer, which came to stop some 200-300 feet away from the initial impact, had significant damage to the front.

achievement gains on annual assessments this year and increased the county’s graduation rate.

Phillips’ recommendation in August 2012 to delay the start of school because of a shortfall to the school system’s budget sparked a high profile and controversial debate about school funding and whether property taxes should be increased to better fund education. Following the Sandy Hook Elementary tragedy in December, Phillips an-

nounced a plan to beef up security at schools by retrofitting buildings and adding school resource officers. “He has awakened the public to the needs of the school system and brought it from the backburner of many people’s minds to the front burner,� said school board Chairman Ted Wise. “In doing so, you are going to ruffle some feathers because there are some who think good enough is good enough; Dr. Phillips doesn’t accept good enough.�

One pint of whole blood can help up to three people, explained the representative.

In addition to donating whole blood, UBS offers the option to donate plasma or platelets as well as a double red cell donation that draws more red cells from the donor to help even more patients.

Gough said most people can donate if they are in reasonable health.

Donors must be 16 years old or older and in good

health.

There are some restrictions and every donor is asked a series of questions to ensure they meet the requirements.

Details can also be found on the group’s website at www.unitedbloodservices.org.

Gough said the best thing to do if a person has a question about their ability to donate is to give them a call at their office in Tupelo at 662-8428871.

There are a number of drives coming up in the region and Gough said

they’re always on the lookout for new donors to help them help save lives in the area.

Donations can also be made at the UBS office on Eason Boulevard in Tupelo Mondays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Today in history

Corinth Theatre-Arts has a new season theme

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Today is Sunday, July 28, the 209th day of 2013. There are 156 days left in the year. Â

Today’s Highlight: On July 28, 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt announced the end of coffee rationing, which had limited people to one pound of coffee every five weeks since it began in November 1942. Â

On this date: In 1540, King Henry VIII’s chief minister, Thomas Cromwell, was executed, the same day Henry married his fifth wife, Catherine Howard.

In 1794, Maximilien Robespierre, a leading figure of the French Revolution, was sent to the guillotine.

In 1821, Peru declared its independence from Spain.

In 1914, World War I began as AustriaHungary declared war on Serbia.

In 1928, the Summer Olympic games opened in Amsterdam.

In 1932, federal troops forcibly dispersed the socalled “Bonus Army� of World War I veterans who had gathered in Washington to demand payments they weren’t scheduled to receive until 1945.

In 1945, a U.S. Army bomber crashed into the 79th floor of New York’s Empire State Building, killing 14 people. The U.S. Senate ratified the United Nations Charter by a vote of 89-2.

In 1959, in preparation for statehood, Hawaiians voted to send the first Chinese-American, Republican Hiram L. Fong, to the U.S. Senate and the first JapaneseAmerican, Democrat Daniel K. Inouye, to the U.S. House of Representatives.

In 1973, the Summer Jam at Watkins Glen took place in upstate New York.

In 1976, an earthquake devastated northern China, killing at least 242,000 people, according to an official estimate.

In 1990, political newcomer and upset winner Alberto Fujimori was sworn in for his first term as president of Peru.

In 2002, nine coal miners trapped in the flooded Quecreek Mine in Somerset, Pa., were rescued after 77 hours underground. Â

Ten years ago: Rebels in Liberia captured Buchanan, the country’s second-largest city.

Five years ago: President George W. Bush received Pakistan’s new prime minister, Yousuf Raza Gilani, at the White House, praising him as a reliable partner in confronting terrorism.

Four suicide bombers believed to be women struck a Shiite pilgrimage in Baghdad and a Kurdish protest rally in northern Iraq, killing at least 57 people and wounding nearly 300.

What does it mean to stand in another man’s shoes?

That question will be examined in “To Kill a Mockingbird� — the first production of the Corinth Theatre-Arts 2013-2014 season. The new season’s theme is “Starting Fresh: Tales from the American South.�

Tickets are on sale now for this stage adaptation of the classic novel

by Harper Lee. “Miss Maudie shares with us Harper Lee’s famed novel through the perspective of a

small-town neighborhood in Maycomb, Alabama, in 1933,� said Cris Skinner, director of the play and CT-A artistic director. “Maudie’s neighbor Atticus Finch has challenged his children to learn the value of human dignity by overcoming prejudice while he represents a falsely-accused black man.�

For “To Kill a Mockingbird,� Skinner and the CT-A team have enlisted the help of Jennifer Winters, in the position of dramaturge, to help gather research information for the play. They are using the info to deepen and round out the characters from Harper Lee’s novel.

Another invaluable source has been Skinner’s father, a lawyer, who has helped them understand more about the character Atticus Finch. “He told me that Atticus Finch is not so much a crusader for the underprivileged as a competent country lawyer who has worn an oath and committed to serving his client,� Skinner said. “It was a critical bit of information about why Atticus’ children don’t understand why he has become a hero. He really is just doing his job and working within the legal system, whether it be considered broken or not.�

CT-A is also selling sea-

P.O. Box 1800 Corinth, MS 38835

son tickets through the final “To Kill a Mockingbird� performance. Season tickets are $70 and include seven seats to be used at any time and in any combination during the season.

Season ticket order forms are at the CT-A website, the CT-A playhouse and in CT-A brochures available at area businesses, restaurants and other locations.

The new season is full of plays rooted in the South’s past, Skinner pointed out. “In looking at the themes though we recognized there was something gained, perhaps a fresh perspective or new beginning for main characters of these plays,� she said.

“The plays take a serious tone for the most part, but humor can be found in all of them, especially ‘Sordid Lives.’� “To Kill a Mockingbird� takes the stage at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 8-10 and Aug. 1517, and 2 p.m. on Aug. 11 and Aug. 18. Tickets are $12 for adults and $6 for students and are available in advance at the CT-A Playhouse on Fulton Drive or by calling 287-2995 on weekdays from 1 to 6 p.m.

Tickets will also be sold at the door before the performance as available.

For more information call CT-A at 287-2995 or email corinth.theatre. arts@gmail.com.

Obese inmate spared from execution dies in Ohio Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio — An Ohio inmate whose 450-pound weight became an issue in his death penalty case has died seven months after being granted clemency, officials said Friday.

Ronald Post died Thursday morning at a prison hospital where he’d been treated on and off since 2011, a state prisons spokeswoman said. He was a week shy of his 54th birthday.

Whatever job he faced, Bean went at it with a smile on his face, according to unit director Christy Grice. “He is a joy to have around here,� said Grice. “Every day he came in with a good attitude and always had something to engage the kids.� “Allen allowed himself to be a kid again,� added Kelley.

Last week, Bean led his purple and gold team to victory in the club’s first “Indy 500 Family Fun Day� where five squads completed in go-kart racing. “I like all the handson activities,� said the 20-year-old Bean before he and the driver

of his Los Angeles Lakers’ entry, Jaylen Douyoun, had their pictured made with the trophy. “Not all of the kids are the same.

You have to learn what they like and teach them in those areas.�

Bean, a chemistry major at Middle Tennessee State University, heads back to Murfreesboro on Aug. 26. “It will be tough to detach from the kids, but I am hoping to get a job at the club in Murfreesboro,� he said.

As a 16-year-old, Bean started helping at Project Attention. Shirley Rolland, director of the Johns Street agency, suggested he seek a job at the Boys Club last year. “We all have a good time around year,â€? Bean said. “Everyone helps out and I couldn’t have been the employee of the summer without the other employees ‌ they helped mold me my first year.â€?

motel clerk Helen Vantz on Dec. 15, 1983. His attorneys sought mercy for Post ahead of his Jan. 16 execution date on the grounds that he was so obese that he could not be executed humanely.

Republican Gov. John Kasich granted Post clemency in December citing poor legal representation, not his weight.

Spokeswoman Ricky Seyfang said the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction classified the death as “expected.� She said privacy laws prevented her

from divulging whether Post’s weight was a factor in his death.

Post had most recently been transferred to the Franklin Medical Center on Jan. 3, Seyfang said. “Long story short, we weren’t surprised by his passing,� she said.

Kasich said in granting clemency that all criminal defendants deserve adequate defenses. “This decision should not be viewed by anyone as a diminishing of this awful crime or the pain it has caused,� he added in a statement.

Chaney deserves kudos for health exchange work Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney deserves the gratitude and appreciation of the people of Mississippi for his dogged determination in ensuring Mississippi’s federally run health care exchange will be available to all 82 counties.

Chaney has been a longtime supporter of a health care exchange, long before President Barack Obama included the program in the Affordable Care Act and long before it became a political target of some Republicans, including Gov. Phil Bryant.

Chaney and Bryant squared off in a much publicized political battle over whether the state or the federal government should run Mississippi’s health care exchange.

Bryant, while railing against federal intrusion into state affairs, fought against a staterun exchange in favor of a federal exchange.

His bet was that the ! federal government would fail to implement federally run exchanges in states that opted not to run their own exchange.

While Bryant won the battle against Chaney, he lost the bet ...

Health care exchanges have enjoyed bipartisan support, originating as a Republican idea. But when they were included in Obamacare as a means of appeasing the insurance industry who originally fought against the health care reform, conservative groups began to target them as a supposed vehicle of allowing more federal control over state health care decisions.

Such an argument has always seemed ludicrous to us, that a state-run exchange could allow more federal intrusion than a federally run exchange.

Chaney has stayed above the political games as insurance commissioner. He’s been a steadfast representative of the people of Mississippi, jeopardizing his own political future and inviting criticism from his political base.

In doing so, Chaney has shown himself to be a! leader of integrity and purpose.

Prayer for today O Lord, it is not that I am ashamed to ask thee for the truth that I do not more diligently seek it, but it is because I fear the sacrifice that may follow in obtaining it. I would that I could understand that thy strength is given in the sacrifice. Make me braver as I seek to live in the truth. Amen.

Personal, guest and commentary columns on the Opinion page are the views of the writer. “Other views” are editorials reprinted from other newspapers. None of these reflect the views of this newspaper.

President Obama’s take on race President Obama rarely misses an opportunity to insert himself into an issue.

Last Friday, he appeared in the White House pressroom to comment on the George Zimmerman verdict. The president said he could have been Trayvon Martin.

Not likely, given his private schooling and the way he was fast-tracked to success.

The president said the history of African-Americans partially explains the way many black people view the case. He spoke of blacks hearing car doors lock as they cross the street and of white women who clutch their purses tightly when a black person enters an elevator.

Then he touched on the real problem: “Now, this isn’t to say that the African-American community is naive about the fact that African-American young men are disproportionately involved in the criminal justice system, that they are disproportionately both victims and perpetrators of violence.

It’s not to make excuses for that fact, although black folks do interpret the rea-

sons for that in a historical context.

We understand that some of the violence that Cal takes place Thomas in poor black neighColumnist borhoods around the country is born out of a very violent past in this country, and that the poverty and dysfunction that we see in those communities can be traced to a very difficult history.”

OK, but what about poor people in the same neighborhoods who don’t engage in violent behavior?

What values are they being taught? Don’t they have the same history, but make different choices?

It is not news that much poverty in the AfricanAmerican community stems from broken or never-started families; or that too many black men leave black women to raise children on their own; or that the way “gangsta culture” is portrayed in the media does not produce an image

that is endearing to white employers; or that public schools in minority neighborhoods are failing to build the foundations necessary for a successful life; or that the abortion rate among black women is four times higher than non-Hispanic whites among 15-19 yearolds, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Abortion, which the president has done nothing to curtail, also devalues African-American lives.

The politics of race plays a role. When black people kill each other, or murder a white person, the president usually feels no need to comment (the recent murder of 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton being a rare exception); Al Sharpton doesn’t march, Jesse Jackson doesn’t call for boycotts, or label Florida an “apartheid state,” as he did following the Zimmerman verdict. Are black lives only worth mentioning when they are extinguished by non-blacks?

There are black people who are disgusted by the behavior, clothing, attitude and language of some young black men. On the Wash-

ington Post’s website last week, beneath a transcript of the president’s remarks last Friday, a reader posting under the name “Chaquita1” offered a personal story about recently being on a train and watching an African-American woman give the evil eye to a pair of young African-American males in “gangsta wear” making a commotion. They became belligerent, talking about “the fat lady glaring at them.”

The woman arose, Chaquita1 wrote, “and said ‘Trayvon Martin died for nothing.

His death did not empower you, it should have been a wake-up call.’ She then returned to her seat, looked straight at me and said, ‘You have white trash.

We have black trash.’”

Discussions like this should be included in any “conversation about race” the president says he wants, along with how such attitudes and behavior contribute to racial conflict.

(Daily Corinthian readers may e-mail Cal Thomas at tmseditors@tribune. com.)

Thank you very much, Ray Kelly President Barack Obama shouldn’t nominate Ray Kelly to be secretary of homeland security. He should invite him to consider the error of his ways.

At least that’s the logic of the president’s remarks on the George Zimmerman case. The president has had kind words for Kelly, but the president’s supporters point out the contradiction: In his meditation on the Zimmerman verdict, Obama dwelt on the evils of stereotyping, and Commissioner Kelly stands accused of policing an entire city on the basis of just that.

Already politically embattled, New York City’s stopand-frisk policing is now in the cross hairs as allegedly an officially sanctioned version of Zimmerman’s suspicion of Trayvon Martin that created the predicate for the tragedy in Sanford, Fla. “Stop and frisk is both racist and damaging to actual police work,” wrote Jamelle Bouie in The American Prospect.

Kelly operates from this disadvantage: Musing from a podium is easy. Policing a city is hard. He doesn’t get to deal in airy generalities.

His job performance is ultimately judged not by the

approval of pundits grading his remarks, but by the safety of the Rich streets.

I hazard to Lowery say that Ray Kelly cares National as much Review about black lives as any of his critics, and I know he certainly has done much more to save them.

It is a matter of hard data that there is more crime in New York in minority neighborhoods. Are New York City police to ignore that because Tavis Smiley doesn’t want to hear it? And who would suffer most if the police decided never to stop anyone on the basis of reasonable suspicion -- the legal standard for the stops in question -- ever again in these areas? Presumably not many MSNBC executives live in Bed-Stuy or East New York.

The New York Police Department focuses its efforts where the crime is, and the results have been stunning.

Heather Mac Donald of the City Journal writes, “New York’s crime drop has been twice as deep and has lasted

twice as long as the national average since the early 1990s.”

Mac Donald points out the fallacy of alleging racial bias in the mere fact that minorities are subject to stops disproportionate to their share of the population. They are more than half of all stops although they are about a quarter of the city’s population. But, according to Mac Donald, “blacks are 66 percent of all violent-crime suspects.”

Critics of stop-and-frisk have undertaken a classaction suit against it. The roughly 20 stops cited in the lawsuit don’t exactly offer compelling stories of police abuse or racism. Rather, they present a kaleidoscope of different circumstances when the police appeared to act reasonably, all things considered.

Deon Dennis got stopped because an officer thought he was drinking in public.

He denies it. He got arrested on an outstanding warrant anyway.

Clive Lino got stopped because he fit the description and was wearing the same kind of jacket as a robbery suspect.

Dominique Sindayiganza got stopped because a wom-

an said he was harassing her at a Petco.

There have been more than 4 million stops since 2004. That works out to roughly 40,000 stops a month, in a city with roughly 20,000 officers on patrol duty. About 6 percent of the stops result in an arrest, and 6 percent in a summons. Critics say that’s not enough to justify them, but it’s not clear what number would ever satisfy them.

No one seems to care about policing practices in cities beset by endemic violence. Should your police force drive the number of murders down to a 50-year low to the disproportionate benefit of young black men, though, that’s different.

Then there’s hell to pay.

Who knows how many, but it is inarguable that there are kids like Trayvon Martin who are alive today because of New York’s policing. It shouldn’t be hard for anyone who rejoices in that to say, before anything else, two simple words: Thank you.

Obama and McCain: Newest odd couple WASHINGTON — There was no conciliatory phone call, no heart-toheart talk to soothe the tensions. No one knows exactly when President Barack Obama and Republican Sen. John McCain went from bitter rivals in the 2008 presidential campaign and foes over health care and national security to bipartisan partners.

Yet in recent months, an alignment on highprofile domestic issues — not to mention an eye on their respective legacies — has transformed Obama and McCain into Washington’s most unexpected odd couple. The Arizona senator is a regular visitor to the West Wing and in near-daily contact with senior White House officials.

McCain, in an Associated Press interview, said that he and Obama “trust each other.” White House chief of staff Denis McDonough, among the Obama advisers who speak regularly with McCain, praised the lawmaker as a “refreshing” partner who “welcomes a debate and welcomes action.”

Like any good business arrangement in the nation’s capital, the secret to the new ObamaMcCain alliance ultimately comes down to this: Both sides believe that working together is mutually beneficial and carries little political risk.

For Obama, the senator has become a rare Republican backer of important elements on the president’s second term agenda, including immigration overhaul, stricter background checks for gun buyers, and perhaps a fall budget deal.

In return, McCain has secured increased access to the White House and an opportunity to redeem his reputation as a Capitol Hill “maverick.”

That image was tainted when McCain tacked to the right during his failed 2008 presidential run against Obama.

“I’ve told the people of Arizona, I will work with any president if there are ways I can better serve Arizona and the country,” McCain said.

“That seems to be an old-fashioned notion but it’s the case.”

Indeed, the level of attention lavished on a functional working relationship between the

Democratic president and the Republican senator underscores how rare such partnerships have been during Obama’s tenure.

It’s unlikely that Obama and McCain’s partnership will lead to a larger detente between the White House and congressional Republicans. While McCain may have sway over some like-minded members of the Senate Republican caucus, he has considerably less influence with his party’s more conservative wing, particularly in the GOP-controlled House.

President: No war should be forgotten WASHINGTON — Six decades after the Korean War ended, President Barack Obama said Saturday that American veterans deserved a better homecoming from a war-weary nation and that their legacy is the 50 million people who live freely in a democratic South Korea.

“Here in America, no war should ever be forgotten, and no veteran should ever be overlooked,” he said in a speech at the Korean War Veterans Memorial on the National Mall, where ceremonies marked the 60th anniversary of the end of hostilities on the peninsula.

Obama said the conflict didn’t unite or divide the country the same way World War II or the Vietnam War did, respectively, and that U.S. veterans came home to neither parades nor protests because “there was, it seemed, a desire to forget, to move on” by Americans tired of battle.

But they “deserved better,” Obama said, adding that, on Saturday’s anniversary, “perhaps the highest tribute we can offer our veterans of Korea is to do what should have been done the day you came home.”

He appealed for people to pause and let these veterans “carry us back to the days of their youth and let us be awed by their shining deeds.”

In the audience of several thousand on a sunny and humid morning were dozens of American and Korean veterans of the war. Obama asked them to stand and be recognized.

The 1950-1953 war had North Korean and Chinese troops on one side against U.S.-led

United Nations and South Korean forces. It ended on July 27, 1953, 60 years ago Saturday, with the signing of an armistice.

A formal peace treaty was never signed, leaving the Korean Peninsula in a technical state of war and divided at the 38th parallel between its communist north and democratic south. More than 36,000 Americans were killed in the conflict. The U.S. still has 28,500 troops based in the south.

Yet the costs of the war continue to mount even amid relative peace.

Detroit bankruptcy setback for unions WASHINGTON — Detroit’s historic bankruptcy filing is a major setback for public employee unions that have spent years trying to ward off cuts to the pensions of millions of government workers around the country.

If the city’s gambit succeeds, it could jeopardize an important bargaining tool for unions, which often have deferred higher wages in favor of more generous pensions and health benefits.

It could embolden other financially troubled cities dealing with pension shortfalls to consider bankruptcy, or take a harder line with their unions in negotiating cuts.

“This is essentially the union’s worst nightmare, said Gary Chaison, professor of industrial relations at Clark University in Worcester, Mass. “It means that the most sacred of sacred things they’ve negotiated for, the pensions of their retired members, are going to be severely cut.”

Detroit’s bankruptcy filing comes on the heels of some public unions losing most of their collective bargaining rights in Wisconsin. At the same time, the unions have shed thousands of members as state and local governments shrink public payrolls.

From Chicago to Cincinnati to Santa Fe, N.M., dozens of cities and counties are struggling with massive debt linked to pension liabilities. Critics say state and city employees won generous defined benefit pensions and lifetime health care from elected officials trying to curry favor with public sector unions.

Man set for trial in pipe bomb case GULFPORT — A federal judge has set an October trial date for one of two men arrested after authorities found a bomb in a car at a state prison in Leakesville.

Scott Jenkins Waits, of McHenry and John Harberson, of Carriere, were arrested after officers at the South Mississippi Correctional Institution found a pipe bomb in a vehicle June 1.

A federal judge set Waits’ trial for Oct. 7.

Harberson is scheduled to plead guilty Wednesday.

Authorities say Harberson had driven a woman to the prison to visit an inmate.

Harberson told agents he and Waits had built the pipe bombs from aluminum flashlight bodies, shotgun shells, black powder and candle wax. He said he forgot it was in the car.

Hearing set over gun case evidence OXFORD — A federal judge has set a hearing

Wednesday on a motion to throw out evidence in a Mississippi gun case.

Charles Williams was a passenger in his car in December 2011 when the vehicle encountered a check point set up by the Mississippi Highway Patrol and Nettleton Police Department.

Court records say the driver was arrested on suspicion of DUI. A search of the vehicle turned up a gun in the trunk.

Williams was indicted in November on charges of being a felon in possession of a gun and possessing a gun with a destroyed serial number.

Williams’ lawyer filed a motion in U.S. District Court in Oxford to suppress the evidence.

Attorney Nicole Clinkscales argues that the check point was improper and so was the search of the vehicle.

Governors urge oil sands assessment MOBILE, Ala. — The governors of Mississippi and Alabama said Saturday their two states will partner to study oil

sands resources.

Oil sands are a sandy mixture found below the surface containing bitumen. After extracting the sand, the bitumen can be transformed into crude oil that can be refined.

Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant and Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley announced the partnership Saturday while speaking to the Southern States Energy Board during a meeting in Mobile, Ala. Republican governors signed a memorandum of understanding that commissions the assessment of oil sands in both states, according to a news release.

The Southern States Energy Board will team up with various agencies from Mississippi and Alabama to conduct the study.

“As I have said before, for our nation to become more energy independent, we must recognize the importance of a forward-thinking approach to energy and continue to develop a comprehensive energy policy that works,” Bryant said in a statement.

Annual Meeting Alcorn County Water Association The annual meeting of Alcorn County Water Association will be held on Thursday, August 22, 2012, at 7:00p.m. at the Association office at 116 S. Cass Street, Corinth. An election will be held to fill two positions on the Board of Directors. Persons seeking election to the Board must be an active member in good standing, and present a petition containing the signatures of at least ten members in good standing to the Association office by 5:00 p.m. on August 13, 2012. Petition forms may be obtained at the Association office during normal working hours.

Deaths If I go to Heaven, which I’m striving to do, I don’t want to go alone, I want you to go there too. ~ Lena Hope Alexander Martin

Lena Hope Alexander Martin

Few of us know what it might be like to be alive for 96 years.

But Lena Martin did.

During all those years, she saw a lot happen in this world.

The end of World War I and the whole of World War II, a manned moon landing, the Great Depression, women gaining a right to vote, sixteen different presidents and advances that were good (medicines to help myriad illnesses), bad (the atomic bomb) and questionable (the internet).

She knew a time when gasoline was 21 cents per gallon!

But those things were background noise to Lena Martin.

Above all, she cared about God and her faith and, almost as important, the faith of her family. She cared about her husband, Watt Martin, who, after laying eyes on her in the third

Gunman set fire, killed six before his slaying in Florida Associated Press

HIALEAH, Fla. — A man set fire to his South Florida apartment, killed six people, and held another two hostage at gunpoint before a SWAT team stormed the complex and fatally shot him Saturday, according to police and witness accounts.

The ordeal lasted eight hours, with Pedro Vargas running through the building, firing at random and eluding officers for part of it, police said.

Vargas, 43, set a combustible liquid on fire on Friday evening to start the blaze, police spokesman Carl Zogby said. The building manager and his wife noticed smoke and ran to the apartment. Vargas came out and shot several times, killing both of them, according to the police account.

Vargas then went to his fourth-story balcony and fired 10 to 20 shots in the street, killing a man who was parking a car outside, Zogby said.

Then, Vargas went down to the third floor, kicked the door in on another apartment and killed a man, his wife and their teen daughter.

Zogby said Vargas then ran through the building, firing “at random, in a very irrational fashion.”

“He kept running from us as he fired at us, and we fired at him,” Zogby said.

He forced his way into an apartment and took two people hostage at gunpoint.

Ester Lazcano lives two doors from where the shooting began and said she was in the shower when she heard the first shots, then there were a dozen more.

To you, our beloved friends and neighbors, please accept this note of thanks and gratitude for your every act of kindness and thoughtfulness expressed during our time of sorrow which meant so very much to me and my family.

Ca

ing called “Granny” and loved having her grandchildren around doing such fun things with them as making fried pies, playing school and building outdoor playhouses. There were always fun things to do at Granny’s house. Creative play was always encouraged and making messes was never discouraged. She hung clothes out on the line in a time when there were no electric dryers, grew a garden in a time when that was far more common than buying vegetables at the store and made home-cooked meals when fast food wasn’t a blip on a radar. And the grandchildren were always allowed to help.

These might be small things but Lena knew that the small things were really the things that made a life.

Lena Hope Alexander was born in 1917 in Hardin County, Tennessee to Benjamin Fred Alexander and Vora Gertrude Clark Alexander. She was the fourth of five children.

She was preceded in death by her parents and siblings, Edith Truie Felker, Benjamin Haul Alexander, Lyman Kyral Alex-

grade told his mother, “There’s a red-haired girl down there that’s mine.” And, so she was.

She cared about her c h i l d r e n, Martin Kenneth Martin and Sherra Martin Childs. She was a housewife and a mother, placing very high value on a happy, Christ-centered home.

She was also a teacher, educated at Blue Mountain College. She taught at Boneyard and Gift schools and at her home congregation of Theo Church of Christ. Many people have reached out in her later years with memories of being in her Sunday School class, how prepared she always was and how much she loved teaching children the word of God. She cared about her extended family and, when the time came about, her grandchildren and, much later, greatgrandchildren. She loved be-

ander and Oma Lee McMillan.

Lena married Walter Neal “Watt” Martin in 1938. Watt, along with his father and brother, was a farmer. Lena was very proud of this, his work and their farm. She kept the house and he kept the farm and this, along with their mutual faith in God, kept them both quite content. Lena loved seeing different places and taking little trips – most of the time by car, sometimes on Watt’s motorcycle – but, more than that, she loved being home with her family.

Watt and Lena were married for 39 years when he passed away in 1977. She never stopped missing him. A love that begins in third grade doesn’t quickly end. She talked about him often and would sometimes ponder what Watt might have thought about this or another thing.

Lena is survived by her children, Kenneth Watt Martin (Margie) and Sherra Elaine Martin Childs (G.W.); grandchildren include, Laura Lane Martin Ring (Johnny) of Pottsville, Tenn., William Wood-

row Childs of Jackson, Tenn., Karen Beth Martin of Corinth, and Jason Watt Martin (Mary Heather) of Oxford; greatgrandchildren, John Martin Gibbons of Pottsville, Tenn., Rylie and Will Childs of Jackson, Tenn., and Lily and Ruby Martin of Oxford, beloved survivors, Nonie Sue Martin, Mildred Martin and Jane White.

Funeral services are being provided by Memorial Funeral Home with visitation on Saturday, July 27 from 4-8p.m., Sunday, July 28 at 1 p.m. with funeral service following at 2 p.m.

Charles Curtis and Ronnie Adams will officiate.

Pallbearers are William Childs, Jason Martin, John Martin Gibbons, Lyman Alexander, Danny Martin, Mike Martin and Jack Martin.

Family and friends are invited to come as a celebration of a long life that was well lived.

Lena will mostly be remembered for her faith, a faith that was as long and strong as her 96 years on this Earth and, she would likely say, the thing that made life worth living.

Vendor charged with contraband in prison PEARL — Authorities say a truck driver for a private vendor has been charged with taking drugs and other contraband to the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility in Pearl.

The Mississippi Department of Corrections says in a news release that James Brooks of Canton was arrested Friday when authorities found contraband in the Stericycle truck he was driving.

MDOC says the contraband included cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamine, 46 cell phones, 44 phone charges, an I-Pod, alcohol, 94 vacuumed packed bags of tobacco, lighters, a pack of hearing aid batteries and 21 bags of yeast.

It wasn’t immediately clear if Brooks had hired a lawyer. He was taken to the Rankin County Jail and charged with possession of alcohol at a prison, possession of marijuana, possession of cocaine, introduction of

contraband, conspiracy to introduce contraband, and possession of tobacco at a prison.

MDOC said in a new release that all vehicles entering a correctional facility are searched by security staff. The contraband was discovered during a search of the truck.

“Eventually, after enough people get convicted on these attempts to bring contraband into prison, we will put a stop to these reckless plans. I can’t help but wonder if this man who was charged today ever asked himself if this plan was really worth doing time in prison,” Corrections Commissioner Chris Epps said Friday in a statement.

Stericycle’s website says it offers services like medical waste management. A message left with the company Saturday wasn’t immediately returned.

Last month, MDOC said two correction officers were arrested at the same prison after contraband items were found during random vehicle

One was charged with felony possession of marijuana and the other with misdemeanor possession of tobacco.

Lawyer wants delay in ex-mayor’s trial JACKSON — A lawyer for former Vicksburg Mayor Paul Winfield has asked a federal judge to postpone his trial because negotiations are ongoing with prosecutors to resolve the case.

Winfield is charged in U.S. District Court in Jackson with seeking $10,000 in cash in exchange for a city contract. He has pleaded not guilty.

Attorney Terris Harris mentioned the negotiations in a motion to continue the Aug. 5 trial.

The FBI arrested Winfield on Feb. 20. A federal grand jury indicted him March 19.

Winfield, a Democrat, completed his first term as mayor of the historic Mississippi River city this year and lost his reelection bid.

The criminal complaint says a confidential FBI informant called Winfield on July 17, 2012, to discuss “pre-event disaster contracts” with the city.

It says the two met at a Jackson restaurant the next day, and the informant asked Winfield what it would take to get the contract.

“Winfield responded ‘Ten’ and held up 10 fingers, signifying $10,000,” the complaint says.

Winfield agreed to take half the money up front and the rest after the contract was awarded, according to

the complaint. The complaint says the source paid Winfield $5,000 in hundred dollar bills that had been provided by the FBI. In August, Winfield called the informant and said he owed $4,300 in taxes and was “in a bind,” the complaint said. They later met in the parking lot of a McDonald’s in Natchez, where the source gave Winfield another $2,000 and promised to give him the remaining $3,000 when the contract was awarded, according to the complaint.

If convicted, Winfield could face up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Renovation begins on historic hospital MOUND BAYOU — After 30 years of being boarded up, renovation has begun on the Taborian Hospital in Mound Bayou, one of Mississippi’s oldest hospitals.

Contractors have 210 days to complete the work.

The Bolivar Commercial reports (http://bit. ly/17HZHwj ) that the work is funded with a $2.9 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The facility will reopen as the Taborian Urgent Care Center.

Founded in 1942 by the fraternal order Knights and Daughters of Tabor, the venture is also supported by a partnership between the order and the city.

Upon opening, TUCC will offer residents extended hours, including evenings and weekends, as well as other services.

Ole Miss fundraising tops $100 million for 2nd year For the Daily Corinthian

OXFORD — Private support for the University of Mississippi remained strong in fiscal year 2013, with overall fundraising topping $100 million for the second straight year and cash gifts surpassing the $90 million mark.

“Realized” gifts, including private contributions, non-cash gifts and other outright donations, surged more than 18 percent to $95.2 million. When combined with new pledges to be paid in future years and with deferred and planned gifts committed in FY 2013, which ended June 30, total private support for the state’s flagship university was $114.6 million.

“Our alumni and friends remain committed to helping us reach our goals and offer new opportunities for students,” Chancellor Dan Jones said.

“Through their generosity, we are able to upgrade our facilities, provide scholarships and attract and retain top-notch faculty. All these things are critical as we work to educate tomorrow’s innovators, boost the economy and improve the quality of life for all our state’s residents.”

The university’s enrollment

has grown dramatically in recent years, stretching resources and making private support even m o r e critical, Jones s a i d .

L a s t fall, Ole Miss enrolled 21,528 students across all its campuses – the most of any Mississippi university – but a recent study by The Chronicle of Higher Education ranked the university first among the state’s public colleges and universities in terms of student completion, measured by four- and six-year graduation rates.

A significant portion of the money raised funds student scholarships and faculty development, as well as provides operating capital for cornerstone programs such as the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College and the Croft Institute for International Studies.

“Our alumni and friends continue to demonstrate their

belief in the mission of this great university,” said Wendell Weakley, president and CEO of the University of Mississippi Foundation. “Their investments continue to show exceptional returns, and we are very thankful for their trust in our university and foundation.”

Other programs that h a v e earned national accolades over the p a s t year include the university’s Patterson School of Accountancy, which has all its programs ranking in the Top 10 nationally; the School of Pharmacy, which was awarded a 2013 Script Your Future Medication Adherence Team Challenge award for its work focusing on medication adherence in populations with cardiovascular disease; and the UM Forensics Team, which had two members – Isaac Lichlyter and Austin Wood – defeat teams from 109 other schools to win first place at the fourth annual China Open at Xi’an International Studies University.

Support for athletics also has increased significantly, with the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation taking in a record $26 million in cash donations for FY 2013.

This total represents a 33 percent increase over fiscal 2012 cash donations and a 49 percent increase over fiscal 2011.

A large portion of the increase in athletics fundraising is connected to the continued success of the Forward Together campaign, which has surpassed the $80 million mark on its way to a goal of $150 million, raising close to $20 million in new pledges over the past year.

Improvement projects tied to the campaign have begun on Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and the Indoor Practice Facility, and an architect has been hired to begin designing the new basketball arena.

“We are so thankful for the support of the Ole Miss family,” said Ross Bjork, Ole Miss athletics director. “This achievement is a true testament to the passion and enthusiasm of Rebel Nation.

Their support will continue to allow us to provide a world class experience for our student-athletes, and compete for and win championships in the future.”

MSU offers online bachelor’s degree in education Program remains geared toward working adults seeking to become certified business and technology teachers.

For the Daily Corinthian

STARKVILLE — A new online bachelor’s degree available at Mississippi State is geared toward working adults seeking to become certified business and technology teachers.

The Technology Teacher Education Distance Learning Program is an extension of the university’s longstanding TTE bachelor’s curriculum.

During the upcoming fall semester, the complete program will be available online for the first time, said professor Connie M. Forde, head of MSU’s instructional systems and workforce development department.

Since online coursework begins Aug. 16, interested individuals are being encouraged to enroll as soon as possible at www.distance.msstate.edu.

In addition to receiving a Bachelor of Science and national certification in computer literacy, graduates will be certified to teach online. The TTE program will prepare participants to

teach at the middle or high school levels.

“The teacher who graduates from this program can teach technology at the middle school and all of the business classes, including economics, at the high school and at the career and technology center, including the career and pathways experience course,” Forde said.

The online program will be administered through the College of Education, with the campus Center for Distance Education providing support and assistance for the distancelearning students, Forde said.

“We will still have the face-to-face program, and we’ll run it simultaneously with the distance program,” she explained.

“We will now be able to recruit students from all

across the state and beyond and provide quality business teachers for many school districts.”

Michael Busby, distance education manager, said the online program was specially designed for working adults.

“We believe that the market for this program is set for adult students.

The target is the adult student who might want to go back to school to earn a degree and become a teacher,” Busby said. “They might be in full-time positions that they cannot leave, or they might be former community college students.

They’re people who, for whatever reason, cannot come to campus.”

During the final semester of coursework, however, participating students must complete a required teaching internship in a classroom setting five days a week for the entire semester. Forde said both a cooperating teacher and an MSU supervisor oversee the classroom internship.

General education coursework necessary to completing a bachelor’s also is available online and supported by the Center for Distance Education.

Community college courses may be transferred.

In addition to the above-listed website, additional information may be obtained at www.distance.msstate.edu/teched or by contacting Forde at 662-325-7258

JACKSON — It’s only 10 jobs, but that’s not stopping three of Mississippi’s highest officials from lauding a new gun maker.

Talon Ordnance announced Friday in a news conference at the state Capitol that it plans to set up shop in Ridgeland to make high-end assault weapons modeled on the AR-15.

The company, led by CEO Clay Baldwin, says it hopes to start turning out rifles in early 2014, making several thousand in the first year. From 15 percent to 20 percent of production would be fully automatic rifles meant for police and military use.

The rest would be semi-automatic rifles aimed at individual buyers.

Baldwin said the owners will invest millions of dollars in the ventures and hope to increase employment to 50 over time, expanding to make shotguns, pistons and ammunition. He said that Talon is a business venture, but the military veteran and lawyer described himself as a “patriot.”

Gov. Phil Bryant, Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann and House Speaker Philip Gunn, all Republicans, lauded the company, saying its establishment is further proof of Mississippi’s gun-friendly atmosphere.

enabled the university to make a positive impact across the state, Jones said.

“Whether supporting a research program at our health science center in Jackson, a scholarship for a public policy student in Oxford, support for our dedicated faculty or our nationally competitive athletics programs, our donors are moving us forward,” he said. “On behalf of our students, faculty, and staff, I am happy to express our deepest gratitude for remarkable support.”

Founded in 1848, the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) is the flagship university for the state of Mississippi. A worldclass public research university, the institution has a long history of producing leaders in public service, academics and innovative research. With more than 21,500 students, Ole Miss is the state’s largest university, with a major medical school, a nationally recognized law school and 15 academic divisions. It has been ranked as one of America’s best college buys by Forbes and one of the best places to work by the Chronicle of Higher Education. The university’s Honors College has been named one of America’s finest.

ELLISVILLE — If you’re an aspiring entrepreneur who needs tips or advice on starting or expanding a small business, Jones County Junior College and the Small Business Development Center may have just the thing for you.

Operation JumpStart is a six-week course designed to teach participants essential small business planning and preparation skills with practical handson training from experts in the field.

For Waynesboro resident Priscilla Flanagan, these lessons may prove to be invaluable. Flanagan is considering opening a teaching supply store, and has registered for Operation JumpStart to prepare for her foray into the business world.

Flanagan is confident the course will give her the tools to succeed in her first ownership venture, and she plans to leave the course well-prepared. “I’m expecting to learn a lot of information on how to go about starting a business, but more importantly, how to keep it afloat once I’ve started it. I definitely want to have a completed business plan that’s ready to go to the lender as soon as I’ve completed the course,� she said Starting July 30, the training program will be held from 6 p.m.-9 p.m.

Tuesdays and Thursdays at the JCJC Ronald E. Whitehead Advanced Technology Center in Ellisville.

Participants will be walked through every step of the small business market, including concept, feasibility, funding, growth and profit.

One of the first steps in the class is determining whether it’s economically feasible for a person to open a particular type of business in a certain area.

There are many factors to consider when determining feasibility, including whether the market needs that product and what the average person in that market spends on the product, said Gary Suddith, director of SBDC. “The first thing we ask is ‘Is this going to work in this market, and what is the market size?’� Suddith said. “We take what’s in their head and heart and get it on a piece of paper and make some real decisions — in other words,

we do a reality check. We want to find out what their talent and their passion is and see if it would make sense to turn that into a business.�

Operation JumpStart is more than just tips and advice on how to run or start a business. The students will be required to complete homework on their business concept, and they will also get hands-on experience and counseling with professionals. “We’ll actually have bankers come in here and talk to them about each bank and what they offer,�

Suddith said. “One of the reasons for that is to get some networking going on, so the bankers can get to know the students and learn a little bit about them. We’ll also bring other members of the community in as we go through the different classes, to help students learn what it is they’ve got to do to succeed in business.�

Flanagan’s decision to open a teaching supply store basically boils down to a matter of convenience. In her job as a teacher, she noticed there were no supply stores in the Waynesboro area. “I’ve been teaching for 23 years, and a lot of times the teachers have had to go to Hattiesburg, or all the way to Jackson to get supplies,� Flanagan said. “There’s definitely a demand for it here, and I want to be able to establish a physical presence.�

Grenada resident Eric Armstrong can testify to the depth of knowledge imparted by Operation JumpStart.

Armstrong had been thinking of starting a computer repair business, so he enrolled in the program at Holmes Community College in April 2012.

A year after graduation, he was the proud owner of Tech Smart, which specializes in IP management, cloud computing, networking and repair. “They kind of held your hand, and took you stepby-step through the process and everything you need to formulate a business model,� Armstrong said. “The program had all the resources you needed right there at your fingertips — like for the people who wanted to do accounting, they had awesome accountants right there who came and talked to us, and even lawyers came and

talked to us. “If I had not gone through the course, I don’t think I would have ever had the solid foundation for my business.�

Armstrong has no doubts that anyone taking the course will come out with a much better vision of what it takes to run a business — as long as they’re willing to apply themselves. “I recommend that people pay attention and follow the program to the T,� he said. “If you go above and beyond, you can really learn what they’re trying to put out there.�

JumpStart instructor Crystal Nail said many new business owners have the preconceived notion that owning a business is a piece of cake. The JumpStart program will teach them nothing could be further from the truth. “For one thing, many of them don’t know the hours of commitment that goes into a business,� Nail said. “Some of them think that since their business is open from 8 to 5 that they’ll go home at 5 every day. What they don’t know is that they won’t be working 40 hours a week — they’ll be working 80 or even 120 hours a week.�

The class isn’t just for new business owners, though. Even people with experience in a particular business can benefit from learning different aspects in that field. “If someone is a parts person, and they want to open up a parts house, they’ve probably got great experience and know how to do that,� Suddith said.

“But they’ve never had to do a payroll or a QuickBook or do their taxes, so they’re not as well-rounded as they need to be to run a business. They’ve got the main elements, and we fit in the pieces.�

Operation JumpStart is also a good resource for people who are well-entrenched in the business world, but may want to expand their operations or client base. “Let’s say that somebody has a lawn care business, and they’re cutting a lot of yards,� Suddith said. “They’ve done a good job, and the business is getting so big that they’ve got to buy more equipment and hire some folks. “Well, it might be time to go from sole proprietorship to LLC (limited liability company), and they don’t know how to go about that. We would walk them through that program to help them get that done.�

Suddith is hoping to have 15-20 people for the start of the program. Tuition for the program is $750, but qualifying applicants may be able to receive a $250 scholarship discount from JCJC or a participating sponsor.

Qualifying veterans may receive a full $750 scholarship from Operation Workforce, an organization that helps veterans and employers connect within the state. “Everyone that fills out an application for Operation JumpStart will be considered for the scholarships,� Suddith said. “We don’t anticipate anyone having to pay over $250.�

Hunt begins for gift never delivered DEAR ABBY: My daughter was married recently and has been sending out her thank-you notes. When she checked her registry to determine if all her gifts had been accounted for, she saw that her stepbrother and his wife purchased a gift, but it was not mailed by the department store.

We’re assuming that it was brought to the wedding, but it’s nowhere to be found. How can we resolve this delicate situation? She wants to tell her sisterin-law, but she is concerned it might have been an oversight and be embarrassing. She plans to contact the wedding venue, but it has been three weeks and you’d think if something had been left behind that they would have contacted her. We are also going to check with the friends who packed up the cars.

Any other ideas? — STEVE IN FLORIDA DEAR STEVE: Because your daughter knows a gift was purchased by her stepbrother and his wife, she should ask them how it was to be delivered because it might have been lost en route. Such things have been known to happen, which is why it is always wise to request that a merchant provide proof of delivery. That way the recipient signs for the package, and everyone is assured it didn’t “fall off the truck.”

I doubt the stepbrother and his wife, having gone to the expense

of buying something, would have forgotten to give it to your daughter. I also doubt the couple Abigail who packed the gifts Van Buren up would have overlooked Dear Abby one. As to the venue where the wedding was held, one would think that if a package had been left behind they would contact the family that rented the place, if only to protect their reputation. ** ** ** DEAR ABBY: We recently moved to another neighborhood. Most of the residents are elderly. Our closest neighbors are a very nice couple in their 70s. We’ve gotten along well, but a problem has arisen and I’m not sure how to handle it.

I am a keen do-it-yourself enthusiast. When I get home from work at 2 p.m., I love to go into my workshop and work on one of the many projects I always have going. I’ll do this for a couple of hours until my wife and kids get home. I admit, it probably gets a bit noisy with all the power tools, hammers, etc., and I usually leave the door open to let some air in.

My neighbor approached me today and told me his wife usually naps from 2 to 4 every af-

ternoon, and the noise I make is disturbing her. Until he told me that, I had no idea their downstairs bedroom is only a few feet from our communal fence. (My workshop is right up against the fence.)

Would it be rude to suggest she find another time to nap or maybe sleep in another room?

I can’t imagine having to sit around and waste time every afternoon waiting for her to finish her nap, especially since she has most of the day to nap while I’m at work. This doesn’t seem fair to me. My wife thinks I’m being a bit hard, so we agreed to accept your opinion on this. — D.I.Y. GUY DEAR D.I.Y. GUY: I’m pretty sure your neighbor’s wife takes her naps at the time of day when she needs one, and she would be unable to adjust her sleep schedule to accommodate you.

However, your idea of suggesting she try sleeping in another part of the house so she won’t be disturbed is a good one.

Or you might agree to a compromise so she starts her midday rest period a little earlier, and you start your projects a little later. That way you would both get what you need.

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

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Many are sharing. You won’t agree with it all, and you’re in just the mood to speak up, too.

Don’t give an interesting opinion; give an opinion in an interesting way.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Don’t just exceed expectations; explode them. Your unique twist will make all the difference. Give what’s unexpected, and you’ll create more than results; you’ll create memories.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Slow down and build rapport with the people around you.

True, you don’t have any time to waste. However, stopping to talk won’t be a waste at all. A shared moment will enrich the passage of time.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The feelings exchanged in an interaction are more important than any other thing being exchanged. Place the utmost consideration on the tone and mood of your interactions, and the rest will work itself out in the next three days.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This

simple truth will be represented in today’s events: The friendlier and easier to get along with a person is the more likely it is that this person will be attractive to others and chosen as a friend or sweetheart.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You will give your love and support, and that is better than gold. Anyone who thinks gold would be better is too young or emotionally undeveloped to be blamed for his or her wrongheadedness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You’ll notice that certain friends want you to themselves and are quite upset when you show favoritism or even just attention to others. This is an immature response, and yet it has real repercussions and must be dealt with carefully.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Are Facebook invitations as good as paper invitations? Is it enough to send a “thank you” via text? Just know that you will be judged for the way you answer such technological etiquette questions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Usually you are highly motivated, but even when you’re not, you’ll push on through.

That’s what sets you apart from the people who don’t succeed nearly as well.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What a partner sometimes fails to understand is that you don’t always want your problem solved immediately. You want to be listened to and understood. And if this leads to solutions, you’ve won on all counts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may feel like making an extra effort to bring a certain person into your world. Be careful not to set an expectation you won’t want to continue, though.

Stick with people who like you for you, not for what you do.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Tis the good reader who makes the good book.” Similarly, what happens today occurs because of the mental energy you bring to your surroundings and the people in them.

Big Ten vs. SEC? Answers rely on question Associated Press

CHICAGO — Nebraska has won at least nine games in each of the last five seasons.

Only Alabama, Boise State and Oregon can say the same.

The Cornhuskers have won four AP national championships. Their honor roll includes three Heisman Trophy winners. They play in front of packed houses every week, often on national television.

So coach Bo Pelini isn’t too fond of those questions about the Big Ten versus the Southeastern Conference.

“I guarantee there are a lot of teams in the SEC that aren’t Alabama that wish they were Nebraska, that wish

they were Michigan, wish they were Ohio State,” Pelini said at Big Ten media days, “so don’t talk to me about the SEC. Talk to me about, let’s compare specific programs.

“The whole SEC isn’t Alabama, isn’t LSU and isn’t Georgia. Every year is different.”

Like it or not, right now the comparison point for the major college football conferences is the powerful SEC, and the business is quite good in the home of Nick Saban, Les Miles and Mark Richt.

The Crimson Tide trounced Notre Dame 42-14 in the BCS championship last January, earning the SEC’s seventh

consecutive national title.

Newcomer Texas A&M (Cotton), South Carolina (Outback), Georgia (Capital One) and Mississippi (BBVA Compass) helped the SEC to a 6-3 bowl record, the highest win total for any conference.

The SEC won two of its three bowl matchups against the Big Ten, with the lone loss going to Mississippi State in the Gator Bowl against — gasp — Northwestern. The improving Wildcats, once one of the Big Ten’s worst programs, beat the Bulldogs 3420 for their first bowl victory since 1949 and one of two for the conference’s seven bowl teams.

Looking back a bit further, the strength of the SEC compared to the Big Ten is a more slight advantage. The SEC is 21-16 against the Big Ten since 2003, according to STATS. “There’s definitely some programs that stand out in the SEC. There’s definitely some programs that stand out in the Big Ten,” said Northwestern quarterback Kain Colter, who threw for 76 yards and rushed for 74 in the bowl win.

“It’s hard to compare conference to conference but we have a lot of tradition. We’ve Please see SEC | 11A

Group of all-stars claims state hardware

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

It’s hard for a group of 10-year-old boys to take the world serious.

That Baker’s Dozen, however, is about to take of the World Series.

The Corinth/Alcorn County Parks and Recreation All-Star team claimed the 10AAA Dixie Youth State Tournament, besting a field of 16 in the sixday event at Magee.

Two teams from each of the state’s districts participated in the World Series qualifier.

Corinth/Alcorn County entered as the District 2 champion following a 5-0 showing at the state precursor in Burnsville.

The local group finished 6-1 in state play, beating McComb 3-2 in Thursday’s championship contest an earning a spot in the World Series in Laurel.

“It was a total team effort from both the players and coaches,” said Manager Anthony Marshall, who was assisted by Brian Johnson and Keith Settlemires. “We all put our two cents in and the team

battled.”

Opening Ceremonies, which include an around-thehorn and home run contests, begin on Friday. The locals will begin play in the 12-team event against South Carolina at 3:30 on Saturday.

After winning three of four to start the tournament, Corinth/Alcorn avenged its only loss (6-5) with a 6-3 decision over Clarksdale. With the unconventional setup of the Dixie Youth brackets, three teams -- Corinth/ Alcorn, Clarksdale and Mc-

Comb -- were each left with one loss.

McComb drew the bye and would face the Corinth/ Alcorn-Clarksdale winner in the title round. The locals set the stage for the title with their second straight win over Clarksdale -- this one in 12-2 fashion.

“The kids just never quit at either tournament. We were down 10-0 to Iuka in District and came back and won,” said Marshall. “We have 13 kids Please see ALL-STAR | 11A

Teheran, Simmons lift Braves past Cards, 2-0 Associated Press

ATLANTA — Andrelton Simmons and the Braves haven’t said much about last year’s NL wild-card loss to the Cardinals.

Beating the Cardinals in July won’t make up for that playoff defeat. But Simmons said it’s a start.

Simmons hit a two-run double in the eighth inning and the Braves, boosted by Julio Teheran’s sharp outing,

beat the Cardinals 2-0 Saturday in a matchup of NL division leaders.

The Braves have won the first two games of the first series between the teams this season. The Cardinals beat the Braves 6-3 at Turner Field in last season’s wild-card game.

“They’re a great team,” said Simmons of the Cardinals. “They got us last year in a pretty big game. We owe

them some. It’s good to see this team beating them.”

Teheran allowed two hits in seven innings, striking out six and walking one.

Simmons’ bases-loaded, two-out double came on a 99 mph fastball from Trevor Rosenthal. With the count at 2-1, Simmons was looking for a fastball.

“I know he was behind in the count and I know he’s comfortable with his fastball,”

Simmons said. “He throws pretty hard. I was ready for it. ... I was just looking for something over the plate and he threw it somewhere I could reach it.”

Randy Choate (1-1) walked Freddie Freeman to open the eighth. Evan Gattis struck out and Brian McCann singled.

Rosenthal relieved and struck out Dan Uggla before walking

500?

May as well make Indy 500 winners swig orange juice in Victory Lane or have the track install lights for a night race. Heck, make it the Indianapolis 350. None of it could have been worse than big, bad NASCAR storming into their city — an open wheel

city.

“I think Indy cars belong at Indy and stock cars belong at Daytona,” 1986 Indy winner Bobby Rahal said more than 20 years ago.

“I think it’s a big mistake because Indy has all that tradition and romance and I don’t believe it should be

tampered with,” said Johnny Rutherford, also a former Indianapolis 500 champion.

Romance? What is this, a love story?

Well, sort of.

Eagles’ Maclin tears right NASCAR celebrates 20th Cup race at Indy speedway ACL, may miss season Associated Press

Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin tore the ACL in his right knee during practice Saturday and could miss the season.

Maclin went down at the end of a non-contact drill and appeared to be in pain while he was on the ground for several minutes. He was helped onto the cart and needed assistance getting off it and going into the team’s practice facility.

“Appreciate all the love and support twitter fam....sad day but I have setbacks my entire life. Minor setback for a MAJOR comeback! #birdgang,” he wrote on Twitter.

Philadelphia is in its second full practice under new coach Chip Kelly.

3 to be inducted posthumously into Baseball HOF Associated Press

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y.— One created baseball’s foremost dynasty, one transformed the role of the men in blue, and one notched the first hit in the first professional game.

That’s the impressive legacy of baseball pioneers Jacob

Ruppert, Hank O’Day and James “Deacon” White, who are finally about to receive the recognition they deserve — induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

The three men represent the Class of 2013 and they’ve all been dead for more than

70 years, making Sunday’s festivities something out of the ordinary. For only the second time in 42 years, baseball writers failed to elect anyone to the Hall of Fame, sending a firm signal that stars of the Steroids Era — including Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, and Roger Clemens, who didn’t

even come close in their first year of eligibility — will be judged in a different light.

BRAVES CONTINUED FROM 10A

Chris Johnson to load the bases.

Luis Avilan (3-0) pitched a perfect eighth and Craig Kimbrel recorded three outs to earn his 30th save.

Cardinals starter Joe Kelly pitched 6 1-3 scoreless innings, allowing seven hits and walking three in only his fourth start of the season and first appearance since July 12.

“Very, very impressive,” said Cardinals manager Mike Matheny. “It was maybe the best I’ve ever seen him throw. Everything. His aggressiveness, his slider, breaking ball, changeup, all of them were as good as I’ve seen.

“That was exactly what we were asking for, and then some.”

Kelly may have earned himself another opportunity as the Cardinals’ No. 5 starter.

“I like pitching, period,” he said. “To be in the rotation would be awesome but I just take the ball when they tell me and take the opportunity when I get out there.

“I’m pitching right now in the moment. I feel like my stuff is there, in the zone.”

Kelly matched Teheran through the sixth before finding trouble in the seventh.

With one out, Simmons singled and moved to third on pinch-hitter

ALL-STARS Joey Terdoslavich’s soft double to the left-center gap.

Kelly issued an intentional walk to Jason Heyward to load the bases. Right-hander Michael Maness replaced Kelly and got Justin Upton to ground into an inning-ending double play.

Teheran allowed a two-out double to Matt Holliday in the first and then walked Allen Craig. The right-hander permitted only one baserunner — Jon Jay doubled in the fifth — through the next six innings.

“I think that’s the best game I’ve ever pitched,” Teheran said. “The command I had today, I think that’s the best I’ve had this year.”

Holliday was activated off the 15-day disabled list before the game. He had been out since July 12 with a strained right hamstring.

Simmons hit eighth as Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez juggled his lineup. Heyward hit leadoff for only the second game this season.

Upton, normally the No. 3 hitter, batted second for the first time in 2013.

Simmons had two hits. He ranks second on the team with 14 goahead RBIs, but said he was overdue to deliver the clutch hit.

“I know I’ve been struggling with runners in scoring position this year,” Simmons said.

SEC CONTINUED FROM 10A

done a lot of good things academically and athletically, so that’s something to be proud of.”

It’s crystal clear which conference is the NFL’s favorite. The SEC produced an astounding 63 selections in the April draft, more than double the next highest total of 31 for the ACC. The Big Ten had 22 selections.

So on the eve of the 2013 season, it looks as if everyone is looking up at the SEC. And Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz has an idea why.

“We’ve had fast guys in our conference. We’ve had a lot of skill players get drafted throughout the years,” he said. “But if you just study recruiting, I mean I think of the population swing right now to California, the South, warm weather states.

“There’s differences, and there’s a lot of ways to be effective and to be successful and you have to figure out what’s best for you at your school or conference and then just try to maximize it.”

While high school football is strong in the South, some of the traditional recruiting corridors for the Big Ten aren’t what they used to be.

“When you go out and recruit now, I re-

member northeast Ohio, Western PA, still great football, fantastic football, but a perfect example (is) where I’m from,” said Urban Meyer, who coached Florida to two national titles before taking over at Ohio State. “I’m from Ashtabula, Ohio, and my high school class, graduating class, I think had 15 people this year.”

Sitting at a table in a downtown Chicago hotel, Meyer then began to move his hands together in a constricting motion.

“That’s alarming because it’s great people, great communities and really great athletes in that part of the state, but it’s just dried up a little bit,” he said.

Meyer and the Buckeyes could have the best chance this year of ending the SEC’s run of national championships.

Quarterback Braxton Miller leads a strong group of returning players on offense, and the defense also should be solid.

Miller, a former prep star in Ohio, said it’s difficult to draw any general comparisons between the SEC and Big Ten, but he likes his team.

“I feel like our competition on the Ohio State level, we can compete with anybody,” Miller said.

MACLIN CONTINUED FROM 10A

The first practice with pads is Sunday.

The Eagles signed wide receiver David Ball to the 90-man roster.

The 29-year-old Ball played for Kelly at New Hampshire, and broke Jerry Rice’s Division I-AA record for touchdown receptions. Ball spent time in training camp with Chicago and the New York Jets in 2007-08.

Maclin is headed into his fifth season with the Eagles. He led the team with 69 catches for 857

Daily Corinthian • 11A

yards and seven touchdowns last season, and the former first-round pick is in the final year of his rookie contract.

Two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver DeSean Jackson is Philadelphia’s other starter.

The team has veterans Jason Avant and Riley Cooper, along with several younger wideouts in camp.

Maclin has averaged 64 catches, 863 yards and six TDs in his first four seasons. His best year was in 2011 when he had 70 receptions for 964 yards and 10 TDs.

and we feel comfortable about putting them anywhere on the field ... even as starters.”

Corinth/Alcorn and McComb were tied at 2-2 heading into the final inning. Keb Brawner provided the walk-off win with a two-out knock that scored Cayden Betts, who earlier singled and stole second.

Alex Marshall provided an earlier highlight, a 3-run blast against Lawrence County on Wednesday -- the six day of the annual affair.

Pitchers were limited to 15 innings per tournament, but had to rest 36 hours after tossing four or more frames. The group, with Jaxin Settlemires, Noah Essary and Marshall, proved to be sevendeep in the tourney.

“We had seven really good pitchers and didn’t have to use some of the other arms we have on the team,” said Marshall. “All seven did a great job.”

Corinth/Alcorn will enter the World Series with an 11-1 combined mark over two postseason elimination tournaments.

“We finished first out of

78 state teams in 10AAA Dixie Youth ... that’s pretty salty,” said Marshall.

Another key to the teams success was the familiarity and camaraderie already built. Ten of the 12 players from last year’s 9-year-old squad -- which finished third at state — are on this team.

“Most of them have been together for two years in a row,” said Marshall. “That means a lot, especially to this age group.”

Marshall also cited Jody Hill for his motivational speech before each game.

“He talked about A&E

— attitude and effort — and that helped them tremendously,” said Marshall.

The group is also hoping for donations to offset the various expenses for the once-in-a-lifetime experience of playing the World Series.

“Hotels will be our biggest expense and any donations would be greaty appreciated,” said Marshall.

(Anyone willing to help with the team expenses can contact Marshall at 212-4604 or Crossroads Regional Park at 2863067.)

at the drivers that would soon usher NASCAR into a boom period.

NASCAR hadn’t just raced at Indy — it took it over.

Dale Earnhardt won in 1995 and then Dale Jarrett started a celebration with his 1996 win that lasts to this day, and even carried over to Indy. Jarrett and crew chief Todd Parrott knelt down and planted a big ol’ kiss on the bricks, the start-finish line for the race.

Who needs milk?

Tony Stewart, a former open wheel champion, never got to fulfill his boyhood dream of winning an Indianapolis 500. But the Indiana native has twice won the Brickyard, putting an emphatic end to his skepticism that a winning a NASCAR race in Indy would never mean as much had it happened in open wheel.

“The first time they came, I’ll be honest, I was 100 percent against it,” he said. “When you grow up in the state of Indiana, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the Holy Grail to you. I didn’t want to see anything different come to it. To me, it was the Indy 500 and that’s all it was supposed to be.”

That feeling didn’t last

for long. Stewart won in 2005 and 2007 and was won over that NASCAR could truly call Indianapolis home.

“It was everything to me,” he said. “My whole life, since I was a kid, that’s what I wanted to do. Not that I had some fascination with kissing bricks as a child. But my fascination to do it here was pretty obsessive.”

NASCAR first kicked the tires of running in Indianapolis in the early 1990s. By 1992, the stock car series was ready to take a dip in the Indy pool with two days of tire testing.

An estimated 30,000 fans at the Speedway chanted “We want a race,” as the cars roared from the pit past a handlettered sign, “Indy fans love NASCAR.” In 1993, former IMS president Tony George extended the official invitation for NASCAR to come aboard.

On Aug. 4, 1994, NASCAR hit the track for its first practice on the 2?mile track.

Cup veteran Ken Schrader was the first driver to complete a lap.

Greg Sacks was the first to bring out a yellow flag as his engine burst just

minutes into the opening session.

Tim Steele became the first to crunch his car against the speedway’s concrete walls in an official practice. Steele slid off turn three and slammed into the barrier.

Gordon was the fastest driver in the opening practice.

So it began — and there was no turning back. Gordon, Mark Martin, Jeff Burton and Bobby Labonte have raced in all 20 Brickyards.

IMS later added Formula One, Grand-Am, and motorcycles to the racing schedule. With IMS set for a $100 million makeover, there’s even talk of adding lights.

NASCAR at IMS got off track, though, after the Goodyear tire debacle in the 2008 Cup race that soured fans on attending.

Tickets once hotter than the Memorial Day sun are available at bargain prices, and Sunday’s race is far from sold out.

Crowds and interest have waned as the novelty of stock car racing faded, a problem at most tracks on the circuit. There were empty sections all down the frontstretch for Saturday’s Nationwide Series race.

Philadelphia Daily News writer Paul Hagen will be honored with the J.G. Taylor Spink Award and the family of late Toronto Blue Jays broadcaster Tom Cheek will be given the Ford C. Frick Award in a ceremony on Saturday at Doubleday Field.

Dr. Frank Jobe, whose groundbreaking surgery on pitcher Tommy John has evolved into a gamechanging medical procedure, also will be honored.

The Baseball Writers’ Association of America last failed to elect a player in 1971, when former New York Yankees great Yogi Berra fell just short. Back then, the Veterans Committee selected Dave Bancroft, Jake Beckley, Chick Hafey, Harry Hooper, Joe Kelley, Rube Marquard, Satchel Paige and George Weiss.

This time, the 16-member Pre-Integration Era Committee dug deep into the archives to elect an owner, an umpire, and a player who had significant roles in baseball’s earliest decades.

Ruppert, who was born

in Manhattan in 1867, went to work for his father in the family brewing business instead of attending college. He also fashioned a military career, rising to the rank of colonel in the National Guard, and served four terms in Congress from 1899-1907 before becoming president of the Jacob Ruppert Brewing Co. upon the death of his father in 1915.

Interested in baseball since he was a kid, Ruppert and Tillinghast Huston purchased the Yankees prior to the 1915 season for $480,000, then proceeded to transform what had been a perennial also-ran in the American League into a powerhouse.

Miller Huggins was hired as manager soon after Ruppert gained control of the franchise, and Ruppert then snared Babe Ruth in a 1919 trade with the Boston Red Sox, a deal that changed the dynamics of the sport. Four years later, Ruppert had Yankee Stadium constructed and “The House That Ruth

Built” became baseball’s mecca. Ruppert also hired general manager Ed Barrow from the Red Sox in 1921, and together they won 10 AL pennants and seven World Series in 18 seasons.

O’Day was born on the rural west side of Chicago in 1859, played ball as a kid with his older brothers, and after completing his education apprenticed as a steamfitter while pitching for several local teams. He turned pro in 1884, but his arm suffered mightily in seven years of action and he retired not long after leading the New York Giants to the National League pennant in 1889 and pitching a complete game to clinch the 19th century precursor to the modern World Series.

During his playing days, O’Day umpired occasionally and was so proficient he was hired in 1895. After working a season in the minor leagues, he joined the National League in 1897 and went on to umpire more than 4,000 games.

INDY CONTINUED FROM 10A

when NASCAR runs its 20th Cup race Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon are as much a slice of Indy racing history as A.J. Foyt and Rick Mears.

There’s a generation of drivers coming up who dreamed of racing at Indianapolis for 400 miles, not 500.

The Brickyard may not be the marquee race to win on NASCAR’s schedule. Rahal was on to something, the Daytona 500 is still No. 1.

But Indy is a close runner up.

“You have the Daytona 500 and then the Brickyard 400,” Gordon, a four-time Indy winner, said. “Some people may rank it different than that, but that’s how I look at it.

There was a time, maybe back in 1994, where I would have ranked this No. 1.”

Then the next big thing in NASCAR, a 23-year-old Gordon won the inaugural race in 1994. An estimated crowd of 250,000 fans absolutely jammed the place and Gordon recalled the die-hards lined up 10 deep around the garage just to get a peek

that the writers might not come to a 75 percent vote on anyone this year,” said Hall of Fame president Jeff Idelson. “Disappointed? Yes, because we feel there are candidates on the ballot who certainly deserved consideration.

But surprised? No.” Approval on 75 percent of returned ballots is needed for induction, and with pitchers Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine and slugger Frank Thomas eligible for the first time next year, Bonds, Sosa and Clemens figure to be on the outside looking in for a long while.

“I believe that this past year was an aberration — the first real ballot with some uncertainty among how the voters feel about some of the candidates on it,” Idelson said. “But looking forward, we don’t believe that this is the norm.”

Mississippi Business Journal

JACKSON, â&#x20AC;&#x201D; On a wet, gray day in late December, nearly 300 Americans were killed just north of Vicksburg, and another 1,100-plus were injured.

Today, it is largely forgotten, commemorated only by a single, badly scarred historical marker standing on U.S. Highway 61 Business.

The event was the Civil Warâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s battle of Chickasaw Bayou, a failed attempt by Union forces in late 1862 to capture the Confederate stronghold at Vicksburg. While there are efforts to remember and preserve the events of the Unionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s successful Vicksburg campaign of the

summer of 1863, there is little talk or plans for doing the same at Chickasaw Bayou. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is an extremely significant battlefield,â&#x20AC;? said Bill Hawke, director of the American Battlefield Protection Program, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and it deserves preservation.â&#x20AC;?

The only reminder of the action is the lone marker on U.S. 61, which has been hit by vehicles and re-erected so many times it only stands a few feet tall now.

However, preservation of the site would face steep challenges. And, in a twist of irony the nature of the terrain and annual flooding, which played a major role in shaping the fight in 1862, today serves

as both enemy and protector of the battlefield.

The Battle of Chickasaw Bayou represented the Unionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first attempt at taking Vicksburg, which by the winter of 1862 had become the key to controlling the Mississippi River. Federal Gen. William Sherman, with a force of 30,000-plus men, steamed out of Memphis, headed for the Yazoo River, in late 1862, planning to attack Vicksburg from the north. They landed in the Mississippi Delta opposite a high ridge known as the Walnut Hills.

The federal forces found an extreme landscape of sloughs, bayous, lakes and swamps. Disembarking on Dec. 26, it took

three days for the Union army to slog a mere mile or so to get into position, giving the Confederate general and future Mississippi State University president Stephen D. Lee time to receive reinforcements and arrange his defenses atop the nearvertical Walnut Hills.

The result was a sharp, bloody Union defeat in a disjointed assault made on Dec. 29. For the Confederates, who only had roughly 13,000 men, total casualties were 207, while the federals counted 208 in dead alone. Another 1,005 Union men were wounded and 563 missing for a total of 1,776 casualties, more than eight times those of the Rebels.

When it comes to helping victims of violent assaults, Hoffman leans on her own experience. On November 5, 1984, she was abducted in broad daylight by a drug-crazed criminal who had been out of jail less than 24 hours. Hoffman was beaten, raped and left for dead in a remote area of Florida.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like and can relate to those women who are suffering in silence,â&#x20AC;? said the life coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Women who have been through this feel they were deserving of this horrible thing.â&#x20AC;?

Hoffman is out to help those suffering from PTSD to face their fear and find the courage to seek help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want them to stop looking down and to look up because they have done nothing wrong,â&#x20AC;? said the PhD in clinical counseling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each of them are a value of worth.â&#x20AC;?

Hoffman was able to overcome her pain and anxiety through the help of others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was very fortunate to have a great medical and mental health team,â&#x20AC;? said the Sanford, Fla. resident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They really worked hard to get me over it.â&#x20AC;?

According to Hoffman, it takes a good team to move past the violent situation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There comes a time when you have to face the fear,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I first went out after the attack, I was never comfort-

able â&#x20AC;Ś itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as simple as just get over it. Women need someone to talk with because it they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, it keeps it inside and they feel more ashamed.â&#x20AC;?

Individuals can help by: â&#x2013; Following her blog and invite others to do the same. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can spread it on social media,â&#x20AC;? she noted. â&#x2013; Purchase her book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Facing Fear and Finding Freedom,â&#x20AC;? available for $2.99 on Amazon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give it as a gift to any woman needing to overcome fear that holds her back from accomplishing her dreams,â&#x20AC;? said the author. â&#x2013; Donate via PayPal (reba@magellanlifecoaching.com).

History

1B • Daily Corinthian

Sunday, July 28, 2013

The story of the sidewalk I may have to beg your forgiveness. Today I am going to abandon my regular column about Corinth in the Civil War and remind you of a oneof-a-kind feature found only at the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center.

Those of you who have been to our visitor center have seen that we have a very unique sidewalk between the parking lot and the building. As you recall it’s a meandering path with bronze items set in and along the path like little treasures waiting to be discovered.

There are Tom a couple Parson of reasons why Park Ranger we made the zigzag path up the hill and they are not always obvious.

We’re asked, “Why is the parking lot so far away?” To tell the truth it isn’t that far away, not much more than the distance you walk from the car to the market. We could have made it closer but to do so would have meant destroying a significant piece of the battlefield and we’re in the business of preserving battlefields, not destroying them.

Second, we had to ensure the walk was of a grade gentle enough so that folks in wheelchairs could make it up the steep slope without too much effort. The Americans with Disabilities Act makes it quite clear just how steep a sidewalk can be. Our system of switchbacks not only meets the requirement but surpasses it.

The third reason is the most obscure but never ceases to delight me when a visitor notices. The walkway is just like the classic engineering approach to a fortified position.

He said what?

Imagine your opponent is in a fort and you want to get in close enough to use your cannon. The first thing you do is dig a trench parallel to the other guy so your artillery is protected. Soon you realize you are out of range and have to shorten the distance between you and him. To get closer to the enemy you have to dig another trench in order to move your cannon forward without getting shot. Not getting shot is very important.

This next part is essential; don’t dig a trench straight at your enemy!

He would merely have to position his guns and aim them right down the length of your trench and the contest is over.

There is a French term for the other guy shooting down the length of your trench or defensive line; Enfilade. You really want to avoid this.

What you want to do is dig at an angle towards the side of his fort and then change direction and dig towards the opposite corner. The result is a zigzag line that is always getting closer to the other guy but never gives him the chance to shoot down the length of your trench. Once again the French have a name for this; Defilade.

This is the end of Combat Engineering 101 for this week. I’ll bet you will never stroll up the walk again without thinking of these things.

For those folks who don’t appreciate the whole enfilade/defilade thing, we have tried to make the walk a little interesting.

Just a step or two up

There are 66 individual bronze items set into and alongside the sidewalk.

The signature bas relief “At the Double Quick,” (above) is synonymous with Civil War Corinth and has been used on billboards and in magazines luring visitors to our city. (Left) A gunner’s haversack with a fused artillery round.

the walkway is a bronze button from a Union soldier’s uniform. A few feet further are a jackknife and then a Confederate button. The items are small at first and are easily passed by. Then they get bigger; a hat, a cup, a handful of bullets.

Like I said, this path leads visitors across the battlefield to the front door of the visitor center.

The purpose of the items is to give folks an idea of the debris left behind in the wake of a big battle.

It’s fun to watch people as they start up the walk.

They usually miss the first few items and then they stop when one of them catches the eye. They move forward to the next one and then they will look back to see what they missed. Some folks will take a half hour or more to make the short walk from the car. They photograph every one of the items and will often kneel down and study them closely.

I always get a kick out of it when they make it up to the entry way and see the Enfield rifle not far from the door. A kid will always try and pick it up and

their little muscles strain as they try to lift it. Adults are different; they know it can’t possibly be lying loose on the ground but they have to make sure.

Men will ease up to it, look around to make sure no one is looking, then try to scoot it with the edge of their shoe.

I’ve never seen a woman try to move the rifle.

She’ll just elbow the man in the ribs, point at the gun and have him give it a try. Oh, and by the way, don’t worry about the items being taken away; they are anchored quite securely in steel and concrete.

Without a doubt, the most frequently asked question is, “Did you find the items in those places when you built the Center?” Ah, I wish it were so, but the answer is no. We hardly found a thing during construction despite the location being the scene of such heavy fight-

ing. You see, before the Park Service came along there was no real legal protection for the site and artifact hunters with metal detectors carried off all of the pieces of our shared history.

Another question is, “They look so real, did you bronze real artifacts?”

Perish the thought; we would never bronze the real thing. The items are all bronze replicas of actual artifacts or reproductions.

Each piece is the work of the Lugar Foundry of Eads, Tenn. Larry and Andrea Lugar are dear friends of the park. Not only did they create the “detritus” on the walkway, they also made the leaves in the courtyard and the six statues at the Contraband Camp.

Larry and Andrea also made our signature bas relief at the front entrance; “At the Double Quick.” Six bronze soldiers in a variety of uniforms running in loose formation toward the front door. They represent the fighting men, Union and Confederate, who fought and died on this little hill.

If some of them look familiar, well that’s not too surprising. All of the soldiers are actually current or former rangers of Shiloh. Leading the pack is Jim Minor who can be found inside the Corinth

visitor center on most days. Behind him is Dr. Timothy Smith who left the Park Service to teach at the University of Tennessee. Tim is also the author of “Corinth 1862,” the must-have book for serious students of Corinth during the war.

Third in line is Paul “Dude” Holloway, a longtime Shiloh ranger, followed by Don Todd. Most of the locals in McNairy County remember Don as “Coach” Todd, from Adamsville High School.

Next to the last is Josh Clemons, one of the four original rangers at Corinth and presently on the staff at Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky. And bringing up the rear is Stacy Allen, the Chief Ranger at Shiloh National Military Park.

There is a great quote from the movie “Age of Innocence” which always makes me laugh; “It was widely known, but never acknowledged, that Americans want to get away from amusement even more quickly than they want to get to it.” Occasionally there is a visitor in such a hurry who gives proof to the line by abandoning the path and making a bee line for the parking lot.

At some of the other National Parks people who short-cut the trail run the risk of being eaten by grizzly bears. At Corinth we have planted rose bushes to discourage such “off-trail” activities.

Our impatient visitor may not be mauled but they do run the risk of some really nasty scratches from the thorns. My advice; stay on the sidewalk. How much luckier, and less painful, is the person who takes the time to enjoy each treasure along the way?

The sidewalk is a distinctive attraction of Corinth and worth a visit all by itself. In fact, we have had out-of-state visitors tell us they came to Mississippi specifically to see our sidewalk and water feature. Next time you have a friend or relative in town be sure to take another stroll up the hill and point out each of the items along the way. I guarantee you will enjoy it as much as you did the first time.

(Tom Parson is a National Park Service ranger at the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center.)

State early migratory hunting seasons finalized After deliberating the proposals given by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in its monthly meeting, the Mississippi Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks approved dates and limits for the state’s early migratory game bird hunting seasons.

As proposed and expected, the possession limit for all migratory game birds increased to three times the daily bag limit and the bag limit for the early teal season increased from the usual four to six.

The early teal season is scheduled to open on Sept. 14 and runs through

Sept. 29.

Six per person may be taken daily with no more than David e i g h t e e n Green in possession at any Outdoors time.

Other notable season dates and limits released are listed as follows: • Canada geese: Sept.

1-15. The bag limit is five with a possession limit of fifteen.

• Gallinules, moorhens, and rails: Sept. 14-Nov. 22. The daily bag limit for clapper rails, king rails,

gallinules, and moorhens are fifteen singly or in aggregate, and the possession limit is forty-five singly or in aggregate.

Virginia rails and sora rails have a daily bag limit of 25 singly or in aggregate with a possession limit of seventy-five.

• Snipe: Nov. 14-Feb.28, 2014. The bag limit is eight with a possession limit of twenty-four.

• Woodcock: Dec. 18Jan 31, 2014. The bag limit is three per day and nine as the possession limit.

Mississippi wildlife officials also announced recently the dates for the state’s dove hunting sea-

sons.

Sportsmen in Mississippi are destined once again to have a seventyday season with a fifteenbird daily bag limit for mourning and whitewinged doves. The possession limit is forty-five, or three times the daily bag limit.

Mississippi is divided into two zones for dove hunting.

The North Dove Zone is defined as those areas north of U.S. Highway 84, plus areas south of U.S. Highway 84 and west of MS Highway 35. Season dates for these areas are Sept. 1-9; Oct. 5-Nov. 4; and Dec. 14-Jan. 12, 2014.

The South Dove Zone is comprised of areas south of U.S. Hwy. 84 and east of MS Hwy 35. Hunting season dates are Sept. 1-9, Oct. 5-Nov. 4, and Dec. 14-Jan.12, 2014.

The opening of dove season is enriched with tradition. Families and friends have long gathered together to ring in the new fall hunting seasons with a bang.

Considering how the calendar fell this time though, many of the state’s sportsmen are likely to be making a change of plans.

Dove season normally opens on the Saturday before Labor Day.

This year, however, the season opens in both zones at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 1.

Federal law prohibits the setting of migratory hunting season dates and the hunting of migratory birds prior to the beginning of September.

Words go South at wedding reception

BY SHELAGH WULFF WISOM Columnist

Amber Rene Jackson, Brandon Earl Shaw

Gann — Armstrong

Some time back I was invited to a reception celebrating the marriage of an old friend of mine to a sweet Southern belle. He had managed somehow to win this Southern lady’s heart and she was embracing the Wyoming ranch life.

However, the bride’s family was a bit concerned after meeting some of the groom’s friends. Her family hailed from the Deep South, and for some reason they perceived indoor plumbing as a relatively new development in Wyoming, and eagerly questioned if we knew how to use cell phones, computers and the blood-pressure machine at the grocery store.

The reception was huge, and the mixture of cultures was the most diverse I’ve ever seen. I tried to sit near the back door so I could make a hasty retreat when nobody was looking, but while waiting to make my get-away, I actually started to enjoy myself.

You see, we don’t stop to think about our Wyoming/country/rodeo slang — it’s just a way of life.

But as I sat and listened, it became increasingly clear that our language is much different than that of the southern-most states. It is its own dialect.

Conversations began to crop up about ranch and rodeo adventures, and the Southern guests became quieter and quieter, trying to figure out what we were talking about. It became a regular competition between the locals to see who could use the most slang words and expressions to further push the Southern guests into complete oblivion about what was being discussed.

Just imagine what those folks pictured in their minds with some of our jargon. There are no dogs involved in bulldoggin’, being dogged, a dog fall or dogtrot-

It became a regular competition between the locals to see who could use the most slang words and expressions to further push the Southern guests into complete oblivion about what was being discussed. ting. Trees aren’t just something that grow out of the ground; they can have skirts and fenders and swells and be rigged full or seveneights. Even more confusing, one wouldn’t want to be caught up a tree, nor would one want to be a yellow belly while you’re up there because it’s not a bird. A horn doesn’t always protrude from the head of a bovine, and a muley isn’t a desert canary.

Nobody in Wyoming has an armed enforcer at their cattleguards, and a bootlicker isn’t something you’d want to take a taste of, but rot-gut might come closer. You usually can’t get much of a sweater from a rancher’s yarn, and if you’re feeling your oats (or sowing your oats, for that matter) it’s best you don’t try to stick them in a bucket and feed them to your horse.

You can be loaded for bear, fair to middlin’, dyed in the wool, ducky, cut a swath, get all lathered up, die of lead poisoning, be hornswaggled, or high tail it. Your horse can have cow sense, be crowbait, peaked, persnickity, a saphead, have heaves and scours and spavins. You should be ashamed if you’ve been responsible for cuttin’ proud and Roman noses are far

from noble. Your cows have cuds, and they can be culled, earmarked, bagged-up, mothered-up, smoothmouthed, broken-mouthed, ringy, on the prod, dry, snorty, scrubs or slick.

Rocky Mountain oysters are not found in the water, and a guy might not want to try to eat a hill of beans.

There’s no milk in head-cheese and fixins don’t make things work better. Don’t plop anything from a meat wagon in the oven, even if you have great whistle berries to go with it, and afterwards don’t pick your teeth with an Arkansas toothpick.

There’s half-hitch, hooey, bitted-up, black-leg, bosals, quirts, martingales, dallies, slack, hazer, rowels, hog-leg, draws, jigs, dinks, chinks, cutters, spinners, snaffles, pig-eyed, bummed, cribbed, goose-egged, rerides, hot-shotted, scotch hobbles, widow-makers, windies, prairie maggots, jigs, jogs, wind-suckers and peanut-rollers.

A hog ranch may never have seen a hog, a nanny shop never took care of anybody’s kids, and you don’t wear flats, panty hose, a soggy bottom or horse feathers.

Punchin’ cows, breakin’ horses, crossfire, daylighting, cuttin’ a rug, sun fishin’ and lap-and-tap aren’t sports (but might be close).

After spending some time enjoying the dazed expressions of the out-of-town guests, I decided that I’d best sink a spur and make tracks out the back while the pot was still boilin’ and everyone was still jawin’. So far the guests were still on the friendly side and unaware that they were the object of Wyoming-brand entertainment.

The last thing I heard was someone hollerin’ loudly “Hey! Can we have some more ‘crackers’ over here?”

It takes a ‘war room’ to launch Netflix’s series The Associated Press

LOS GATOS, Calif. — Netflix’s Internet video subscription service works around the clock, but it’s unusual for more than two dozen of the company’s engineers and top managers to be huddled in a conference room at 10:30 on a midsummer Wednesday evening.

This is a special occasion. It’s near the end of a grueling day that will culminate in the premiere of “Orange Is The New Black,” the fourth exclusive Netflix series to be released in five months.

The show’s first episode is called “I Wasn’t Ready,” and everyone in the room has been logging long hours to ensure that the title doesn’t apply to the debut.

Netflix Inc. invited The Associated Press to its Los Gatos, Calif., headquarters for an unprecedented glimpse at the technical preparations that go into the release of its original programming. The shows have become the founda-

tion of Netflix’s push to build an Internet counterpart to HBO’s premium cable channel.

“This is Silicon Valley’s equivalent of a midnight movie premiere in Hollywood,” says Chris Jaffe, Netflix’s vice president of product innovation.

Netflix made a name for itself as a DVD-by-mail provider and an Internet video streaming business mainly by offering content from other companies. Lately, the company has been releasing its own content as a way to hook new customers on its $8-per-month streaming service.

The company promised its 37.6 million worldwide subscribers that they can start watching all 13 episodes of its latest original series at the stroke of midnight, Pacific Time, on July 11. So Jaffe and Netflix engineering director Bob Heldt have summoned a battalion of key employees to a conference room named after “Dark Passage,” a 1947 film noir

Cryptoquip

starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall.

On this night, the setting has been transformed into Netflix’s version of a war room. The engineers are flanked by seven flatscreen televisions on one side of the room and two giant screens on the other.

One big screen is scrolling through Twitter to highlight tweets mentioning “Orange Is The New Black,” an offbeat drama set in a women’s prison.

The other screen is listing some of Netflix’s most closely guarded information — the rankings of videos that are attracting the most viewers on an hourly basis.

If all goes well, the pizza and snacks that Netflix’s bleary-eyed workers have been munching will be washed down with a champagne celebration after the show starts streaming.

“This will be a successful night if we are here at midnight and it turns out that we really didn’t need to be because there were

no problems,” says Yury Izrailevsky, Netflix’s vice president of cloud computing and platform engineering.

The mission is to ensure each installment of “Orange Is The New Black” has been properly coded so the series can be watched on any of the 800 Internet-connected devices compatible with Netflix’s service.

It’s a complex task because Netflix has to account for viewers who have different Internet connection speeds, various screen sizes and different technologies running the devices.

Others are still checking to make certain that the English dialogue properly syncs with the video being shown at different Internet connection speeds.

Just before another Netflix series, “House of Cards,” debuted in February, engineers detected two minutes of dialogue that was out of sync with video played on iPhones at certain speeds, prompting

a mad scramble to fix the problem before the series was released to subscribers.

Netflix typically doesn’t have to go through all these steps when it licenses content that has previously been shown in theaters or on TV networks. Much of the technical work already has been done on the recycled video, leaving a minimal amount for Netflix’s internal team to do. Not so with the original programming being made expressly for Netflix.

“We have to start from scratch with these original series,” Heldt says.

Netflix CEO Reed Hastings is so confident that his team will get it right that he doesn’t feel a need to show up in the war room, or even bother to stay up late to make sure it al goes smoothly. “They know what they are doing and I know everything will be working great, so I can see the episodes in the morning,” he said.

The stakes and anticipa-

tion surrounding Netflix’s original series are much higher than with non-original programming from Netflix’s library.

Netflix hasn’t revealed how much it paid for each series, but Hastings has estimated the company will spend about $200 million annually during the next few years on original programming. That represents about 10 percent of Netflix’s roughly $2 billion budget for video licensing.

Netflix’s emphasis on original programming has worked out well so far.

“House of Cards, a political drama starring Kevin Spacey, became the first made-for-the-Internet series to be nominated for multiple Emmys in major categories. The series received nine nominations, including outstanding dramatic series and best actor and actress in a drama. “House of Cards” also helped Netflix add more than 2 million subscribers during the first three months of the year.

Lee and Tyson team to bring boxer’s stage show to television The Associated Press

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.

— Mike Tyson is going back to pay TV, where his fights were some of the biggest moneymakers in boxing history.

Only this time the punches he’s throwing are verbal.

The former heavyweight champion is teaming with director Spike Lee to bring Tyson’s oneman stage show to HBO later this year.

The program was filmed on Broadway, where “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth” ran last summer.

Lee used 11 cameras to film the show that he described as part of Tyson’s legacy outside the ring.

Tyson gives an unvarnished recounting of his life’s highs and lows, including his years in prison, biting Evander Holyfield’s ear, his marriages, being a tabloid target and his drug use.

“Most human beings are not going to display the dark parts of themselves, the demons they have, to the world,” Lee told the Television Critics

“When you see this he’s out there on this stage naked sharing his experience, his ups and downs to the audience and it’s traumatic.

It’s the most courageous thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I couldn’t do it and most people couldn’t do it.”

Spike Lee Director Association on Thursday.

“When you see this he’s out there on this stage naked sharing his experience, his ups and downs to the audience and it’s traumatic. It’s the most courageous thing I’ve ever

seen in my life. I couldn’t do it and most people couldn’t do it.”

Tyson found walking on stage to do a live show similar to going into the ring, with similar energy among the Broadway and fight crowds.

“I can’t wait to get my hands on the guy like I can’t wait to get on stage.

Just like in a fight, I wanted to kill everybody in the room, by my performance, of course,” he said, adding the biggest difference was “I don’t have to go to the hospital after I perform.”

With Tyson waiting in the wings with his mic clipped on, Lee said, “We had to hold him back until he hears the bell ‘cause he’s ready to go.”

Tyson’s wife, Kiki, wrote the script for the stage show, which toured the country earlier this year.

Tyson said it reflects his life’s journey from Brooklyn street urchin to happily married father.

“It’s how I plan on living my life now in a productive way,” he said. “This is all pretty much new to me but it’s working.”

Nurse details Jackson’s anesthetic treatments The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Michael Jackson had a high tolerance for certain drugs and wasn’t always forthcoming with his medical history, a nurse anesthetist who treated the singer testified Thursday.

Witness David Fournier told jurors he had worked with Jackson for a decade until the relationship ended in 2003, when Fournier refused to participate in a medical procedure.

Jackson was acting “goofy” and was slow to respond to standard questions before a scheduled cosmetic surgery that was canceled after Fournier refused to administer an anesthetic, he said.

The incident came a few months after Fournier said he had to help Jackson breath while undergoing another procedure and later determined that Jackson had not disclosed a new medical condition.

“He wasn’t honest with me,” Fournier said.

At the time, Jackson had an implant in his abdomen to block the effects of Demerol and other opiate drugs.

Fournier testified that he had given the singer a relatively large dose of a powerful anesthetic

and needed to know how Jackson was going to react.

Fournier testified as a defense witness in a negligence case filed by Jackson’s mother against AEG Live LLC, the promoter of Jackson’s comeback shows.

Katherine Jackson claims the concert promoter failed to properly investigate the doctor who was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter for giving Jackson an overdose of the anesthetic propofol as a sleep aid in 2009.

AEG denies it is liable for Jackson’s death. Its lawyers have said Jackson hid his prescription drug use from nearly everyone.

Fournier said his incomplete medical records show he administered propofol to Jackson at least 14 times between 2000 and 2003. He estimated he gave the singer the drug numerous other times over the years for a variety of cosmetic and dental procedures.

He noted in his records that Jackson had a high tolerance for certain drugs, which Fournier said could be attributed to a variety of factors, including genetics.

During cross-examina-

tion, Fournier said Jackson never requested any specific drugs, including propofol, during procedures or asked to be sedated for longer than was necessary. He said the singer didn’t exhibit any drug-seeking behavior or signs that he was doctorshopping.

Fournier said he knew that Jackson had received an above-average number of anesthetic treatments over his lifetime, and many were related to procedures needed after Jackson was badly burned in a shoot for a Pepsi commercial in 1984.

Fournier said it was not common to administer an anesthetic during cosmetic procedures, but the ones done on Jackson were complex and involved dozens of injections. Some of the procedures were near Jackson’s eye and sedation was necessary to keep him still, Fournier said.

Fournier also said he never had any indication that the singer was using propofol as a treatment for insomnia.

Jackson’s physician Conrad Murray had been giving the singer nightly doses of propofol as Jackson prepared for his illfated “This Is It” shows.
