Missing feline Girl’s dream comes true returns to owner BY BRANT SAPPINGTON
bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
The happiest place on earth was enough to leave 10-yearold Grace Holder searching for words. “She was absolutely speechless,” recalled Andrette Holder of her daughter’s reaction to arriving at Disney World for a dream vacation. The trip, provided by the Sunshine Foundation, was the first real family vacation Grace and her twin sister Georgia had experienced due to the demands of Grace’s illness. Diagnosed at 9 months old with cerebral palsy, the family has spent most of their vacation time in hospitals as Grace underwent tests and treatments.

It was the purrfect ending to a tale that came within a whisker of costing Simba the cat more than one of his nine lives. Jeff Stark was recently reunited with Simba 10 months after the furry wanderer disappeared from Stark’s home near Farmington. “I was very surprised,” said Stark. Simba’s adventure began shortly after Stark moved into a new home. Normally an indoor cat, they decided to let him out to play one afternoon. It would be the last time they

Public can comment on broadband service BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The public can comment on broadband Internet service in an upcoming community forum. Northern District Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley will meet with the public at the Alcorn County Courthouse on Thursday, Aug. 29, beginning at 6 p.m. to hear from ratepayers. The forum follows the similar “Zap the Gap” initiative that focused on cellular phone service. “I want to give people across my district the opportunity to share their concerns with me personally about the lack of broadband access in their area and how that affects their lives
and businesses,” Presley said. “I am committed to using every power granted to the commission to ensure greater access to this vital service.” Information from the broadband forums are compiled and reported to the Federal Communications Commission consistent with the framework created by Congress. The Mississippi Public Service Commission designates companies as eligible telecommunications carriers for participation in the FCC’s Universal Service Fund and is tasked with ensuring that ETCs use USF support consistent with federal statutes and the FCC’s implementing regulations.

Breakfast with history highlights festival BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
IUKA — The 151st Battle of Iuka anniversary brings a chance to meet the generals and presidents who shaped the times. Two events will feature portrayals of prominent figures from the war, giving the public a chance to learn more about them while supporting the Old Tishomingo County Courthouse Museum. It is part of a Labor Day weekend that will be filled with reenactment and Heritage Festival events. On Saturday, Aug. 31, breakfast with Presidents Lincoln and Davis, Generals Grant and
Little, and Colonel John M. Stone will take place at Iuka United Methodist Church from 7 to 8:30 a.m. On the same day, Presidents Lincoln and Davis will conduct an educational seminar on the Battle of Iuka in the courtroom of the old courthouse from 10:15 to 11:15 a.m. The talk will cover issues that affected Iuka during the war and will include an opportunity for people to ask questions. Both events have a limited number of tickets available for sale in support of the museum and can be purchased at the
museum or Tishomingo County Tourism Office. Museum Director Cindy Nelson encourages the public to spend some time at the museum during the busy weekend. The museum is extending its hours for that weekend to 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday. The Heritage Festival kicks off the weekend with the annual community church service on Friday evening. The gathering will begin at 6:30 p.m. at the Mineral Springs Park with singers such as Chuck Clark, Unity Please see FESTIVAL | 3A

Today in History
SIMBA CONTINUED FROM 1A
Today is Sunday, Aug. 18, the 230th day of 2013. There are 135 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight: On August 18, 1963, James Meredith became the first black student to graduate from the University of Mississippi.
On this date: In 1587, Virginia Dare became the first child of English parents to be born on American soil, on what is now Roanoke Island in North Carolina. (However, the Roanoke colony ended up mysteriously disappearing.) In 1838, the first marine expedition sponsored by the U.S. government set sail from Hampton Roads, Va.; the crews traveled the southern Pacific Ocean, gathering scientific information. In 1846, U.S. forces led by General Stephen W. Kearny captured Santa Fe, N.M. In 1862, Dakota Indians began an uprising in Minnesota (the revolt was crushed by U.S. forces some six weeks later). In 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, guaranteeing all American women’s right to vote, was ratified as Tennessee became the 36th state to approve it. In 1938, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Canadian Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King dedicated the Thousand Islands Bridge
connecting the United States and Canada. In 1958, the novel “Lolita” by Vladimir Nabokov was first published in New York by G.P. Putnam’s Sons, almost three years after it was originally published in Paris. In 1969, the Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel, N.Y., wound to a close after three nights with a midmorning set by Jimi Hendrix. In 1976, two U.S. Army officers were killed in Korea’s demilitarized zone as a group of North Korean soldiers wielding axes and metal pikes attacked U.S. and South Korean soldiers. In 1983, Hurricane Alicia slammed into the Texas coast, leaving 21 dead and causing more than a billion dollars’ worth of damage. The Kansas City Royals defeated the New York Yankees, 5-4, in the completion of the “pine-tar” game in just 12 minutes. In 1988, Vice President George H.W. Bush accepted the presidential nomination of his party at the Republican National Convention in New Orleans. In 1993, a judge in Sarasota, Fla., ruled that Kimberly Mays, the 14-year-old girl who had been switched at birth with another baby, need never again see her biological parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg, in accordance with her stated wishes. (However, Kimberly later moved in with the Twiggs.)

would see the tan and white striped cat until this week. Stark believes Simba may have been startled by a couple of new puppies in the yard and then got disoriented in his new neighborhood. Jo Ann Wilbanks knew something was different about the stray cat that arrived at her home several weeks ago, but she wasn’t sure just what. She said he appeared one day and
would hang around outside and sometimes get into the food left out for their dogs. Wilbanks said he kept trying to come inside as if he knew he didn’t belong outdoors and it was clear he was accustomed to being around people. She noticed he had a collar with tags and contacted Corinth Animal Care Center but they weren’t initially able to match the numbers on the tag with an animal. She began posting his picture on Facebook and
asking everyone she saw if they new someone who was missing a cat. During this time Wilbanks suffered the tragic loss of her sister in a car accident and Simba stayed close to the family. He proved to be a source of comfort as many family members spent time petting and playing with him. “It really cheered everybody up to have the cat around,” she said. She took him to the animal care center one day and some of the staff rec-
ognized him. A quick dig through the files matched the missing cat with his owner and Stark got the call he thought he’d never receive. Simba was quickly reunited with his owner who couldn’t believe he was still alive and in such good shape. He only lost about two pounds during his adventure. Stark said he’s thrilled to have his furry friend back where he belongs. “He’s my little buddy,” said Stark. “I really missed him.”
was granted. She said she almost lost her hearing when she told the girls about the trip one day after picking them up from school. “They literally screamed for like 10 minutes,” she said with a laugh. Andrette said spending money on extras like vacations has not been an option with the constant costs of medical bills and travel to hospitals and clinics. The trip gave them a rare opportunity
to get away and have fun without worrying about the expense. The family stayed in Florida at the Sunshine Foundation Dream Village. The 22-acre resort was built with the needs of children with health challenges in mind. Each cottage has a unique theme the Holders stayed in the Legoland cottage where Legos could be found on every surface. “They were just amazed,” said Andrette.
She said her daughter had long wanted to visit Disney. “It was just something she had just always dreamed of doing,” she said. The experience was truly the trip of a lifetime and she said she’s so grateful to the Sunshine Foundation for making it happen. “I think it was more than we could ever have imagined. There are no words for what it meant,” she said.
DREAM CONTINUED FROM 1A
“That’s what they think vacation is,” said Andrette. A friend had told her about the Sunshine Foundation, a group based in central Florida dedicated to granting wishes of children with chronic illnesses and physical challenges. She submitted their story to the foundation and Grace’s wish for a trip to Disney World

Letter to the editor
Will stray animals be thrown out with trash? To the editor: Thrown away, lost, homeless animals are a big problem. Eight hundred and four animals were brought to the Corinth-Alcorn County Animal Shelter between January and June of this year -- more had to be turned away due to lack of space. Of those, 458 were adopted out or returned to their owners; 61 were sent to rescue groups; and 70, too sick or injured to be helped, had to be euthanized. Every animal is treated, vaccinated, neutered and kept clean and fed. And this shelter is just an old house with 156 capacity, currently with 214 animals living there. It chills my blood to see trash thrown out everywhere like our community is just one big garbage dump; can you imagine seeing starving, freezing animals thrown out everywhere? There will always be citizens who don’t, won’t or can’t take responsibility for their actions or inactions. If you are blessed with the ability to help keep our community a decent place to live, please “Man up” and help. if you are not, please support those who are trying to make a good home for us. And, please, Board of Supervisors who we elected and depend on, I know funds are tight, but I beg you, don’t cut funds to the animal shelter. I am so very proud of our community, please continue to make it a great place to live. Helen Potts

Lessons on changing our state’s image The national perception of Mississippi is a hard nut to crack. Regardless the realities which explode the perceived myths once we actually can get someone disparaging the state to pay us a visit and give us a try, the perceptions of our state as poor, backward, insular, and in many cases racist, remain. Perhaps no university president since MSU’s Dean Colvard in 1963 recognized that fact more readily than did former Ole Miss chancellor Robert Khayat — who led Ole Miss from 1995 through 2009. Colvard risked his life and career at MSU in authorizing the “Game of Change” with an integrated Loyola of Chicago team in the 1963 NCAA basketball tournament. Khayat wrestled some of those same demons 34 years later in the 1990s when he took on his university’s Old South vestiges — the Confederate flag, the song “Dixie” and other symbols that he came to believe were holding the university back. When Mississippi State’s 2013 baseball team made it the finals of the NCAA College World Series ear-
lier this year, ESPN announcer Mike Patrick incensed many Mississippians with Sid Salter a poorly conColumnist structed onair remark that was — I think — actually intended as a compliment about how well MSU fans traveled for the historic deep tournament run. “The coaches told us this morning a lot of people came here from Mississippi that can’t afford the trip,” said Patrick. “But they came here to support their kids. They are so proud of them and everybody is waiting for this team to explode.” Regardless the fact that MSU fans had filled Omaha’s nicest hotels to overflowing, packed the city’s best restaurants, and turned the Ameritrade Park baseball venue into a literal sea of maroon and white, the perception of “poor old Mississippi” prevailed. Patrick’s garbled syntax in describing the huge MSU crowd to a national TV audience didn’t help.
In Khayat’s new book “The Education of a Lifetime” (Nautilus Publishing, 320 pages), the former Ole Miss and Washington Redskin football player describes the challenges of taking ownership of changing Mississippi’s image and the image of his alma mater during his tenure at Ole Miss. The book offers insights into leadership and the difficulties of leadership when one is sailing against the winds of popularity. The book offers an honest account of how Khayat led Ole Miss through a painful period. I taught journalism at Ole Miss in the late 1990s and watched the slopeshouldered chancellor bear up to public criticism from friend and foe alike. I watched and heard several of the protests led by outof-state race baiters. Likewise, I saw loyal Ole Miss fans who didn’t agree with Khayat on his philosophies. But as several voices in the Khayat memoir note, Robert Khayat was the only chancellor who could have accomplished what he did at Ole Miss not merely in terms of addressing troublesome symbolisms, but
in orchestrating a strong movement to a new and better image. Khayat’s swan song was his work along with staff member Andy Mullins in bringing the 2008 presidential debate between Barack Obama and John McCain to the Gertrude Ford Center at Ole Miss. The nation saw a different Ole Miss, a different Oxford and a different Mississippi during the national and international coverage of that debate. Khayat’s book is a reminder that our state’s universities play a unique role in bending the tired old erroneous perceptions of Mississippi. Like Colvard did in 1963, Khayat had the courage to go against the political grain to do what he believed was right and what forced people to take a second look at Mississippi. His memories of that compelling journey make for a remarkable, worthwhile book that both enlightens and entertains.

Off-year elections will turn on personal factors Sometimes off-year elections provide insight into national political trends and voters’ views on issues. That was true in 2009, when the issues in the governor elections in New Jersey and Virginia were congruent with the issues facing Congress and the president. In both states the Republicans campaigned for lower spending and taxes, in contrast to the Obama Democrats’ policies. Heavily Democratic New Jersey voted narrowly for Republican Chris Christie, and in Virginia, the state voting closest to the national average in 2008 and 2012, Republican Bob McDonnell won a landslide victory. This turned out to be a good predictor of 2010, when Republicans captured 63 seats and control of the House of Representatives, plus a bunch of governorships and some 600 state legislative seats. Similarly, Democratic victories in those two states in 2005 turned out to be a good predictor of Democrats’ big gains in 2006 and 2008. The Republicans’ good year in 2009 was not as good a predictor of 2012, when Barack Obama won re-election. But he had to fight for it, and he was the first Democratic president re-elected with a reduced percentage of the vote.

But sometimes offyear elections turn out to have little precedental value. That Michael seems to be Barone the case this year. Columnist In New Jersey, Chris Christie seems headed to a landslide re-election victory -- the first in that state since Tom Kean won a second term in 1985. His lead in the realclearpolitics.com average of recent polls stands at 59 to 28 percent. The tough-talking Christie was already strong before Hurricane Sandy hit last November. He managed to pass legislation cutting back on public employee unions by getting the support of Democratic legislators with backgrounds in private-sector unions. But his performance during Sandy made him a rock star with New Jersey voters. A big Christie victory could make Christie a strong presidential candidate in 2016. But it won’t say much about the standing of Republicans or Democrats nationally. The situation is different in Virginia. Current polling shows a tie, with 40 percent for former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe and 39 per-
cent for Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli. Their stands on issues can be seen as roughly congruent with their national parties. But the election may hinge on other things. Each candidate has liabilities that make him arguably unelectable. McAuliffe has had little involvement in Virginia state politics, except for a failed primary campaign for governor four years ago. And his business background, which he has said will help him spur the state’s economy, also has some problems. He started a firm called GreenTech, which was supposed to produce environment-friendly cars in Virginia. Instead it built a plant in Mississippi (which it won’t let reporters see), has hired only about 100 people and has produced a few hundred golf-cart-sized vehicles. Two federal investigations are looking into the firm’s financing through a program that lets rich foreign investors get visas. McAuliffe recently revealed that he resigned as CEO last December, but he’s still the largest stockholder. As for Cuccinelli, he has been in the habit of making provocative statements taking conservative stands on cultural issues. Some of his moves have been popular, like his early

lawsuit challenging Obamacare on constitutional grounds. His efforts to track down DNA evidence to absolve those wrongfully convicted of crime should be attractive to voters of all stripes. But his strong stands on abortion could antagonize many voters in a state that has voted for the pro-abortion-rights presidential candidate in the last two elections. And he has accepted gifts from the Star Scientific CEO who lavished them on incumbent McDonnell and his family. Both of the 2013 candidates have assets, as well. I find both of them likeable characters, though many voters may not. Both are articulate and have lots of energy. McAuliffe is a great fundraiser, and Cuccinelli has shown he can win in the Democratictrending Northern Virginia suburbs. Overall this race seems likely to hinge more on personal factors than on issue stands. If so, it won’t tell us much about national trends.

Nation Briefs So far, authorities have issued mandatory evacuations for 1,600 residences in this smoke-shrouded valley. More homeowners, along with the growing camp of firefighters and support staff, could be asked to move Saturday depending on fire activity, fire officials said. The blaze was started by lightning Aug. 7. It expanded significantly Friday, burning through tinder-dry brush and timber in the mountains west of the towns. Efforts Saturday were focused on protecting homes and structures in the gulches and foothills just west of Hailey and Ketchum. Crews also planned to target erratic, winddriven fire growth in one area north of Ketchum and two locations west of Hailey. For now, that battle is taking place on the ground because heavy smoke has grounded air tankers capable of dumping retardant and water on the perimeters. Fire managers and more than 700 firefighters are bracing for another dose of hot temperatures and afternoon wind gusts up to 30 mph that could move flames closer to homes. Hundreds of more firefighters will be arriving Saturday as other fires in Idaho and other western states die down.

Egypt challenges Obama’s philosophy WASHINGTON — As Arab Spring democracy uprisings spread across the Middle East, President Barack Obama’s response to the political unrest has been to voice support for people seeking representative governments but limit the role the United States will play to shape those efforts. The president’s philosophy of limited engagement is facing perhaps its toughest test in Egypt, where the nation’s first democratically elected president was ousted by military forces with deep, decadeslong ties to the U.S. The White House has refused to declare Mohammed Morsi’s removal from power a coup — a step that would require Obama to suspend $1.3 billion in annual aid — even after the militarybacked interim government led crackdowns last week that left more than 600 people dead and thousands more injured. Obama’s resistance to suspending U.S. support for Egypt’s military leaves the White House with little leverage, effectively relegating the president to the role of a bystander issuing strongly worded statements. The U.S. position has also stirred up anti-American sentiment in Egypt, with Morsi supporters accusing the U.S. of failing to live up to its own democratic values by allowing an elected leader to be pushed aside. The president insists that the U.S. stands with Egyptians seeking a democratic government. But he says America could not determine Egypt’s future and would not “take sides with any political party or political figure.”
Navy changes policy on base alcohol sales NAVAL STATION NORFOLK, Va. — On the world’s largest naval base, sailors can pull into a gas station and buy a bottle of liquor before sunrise. But as the Navy works to curb alcohol abuse in a push to reduce sexual assaults and other crimes, the days of picking up a bottle of Kahlua along with a cup of coffee are coming to an end. The Navy’s top admiral has ordered a series of changes to the way the Navy sells booze. Chief among them, the Navy will stop selling liquor at its mini marts and prohibit the sale of alcohol at any of its stores from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. “It’s not going to fix everything, but it is a real step in the right direction,” said David Jernigan, Johns Hopkins University’s director of the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth. “Historically, the military, as elsewhere, has viewed these problems as individual problems to be dealt with by identifying the individual with the problem. While that’s important, the research shows it’s much more effective actually to look at it as a population problem and to deal with things that are affecting everybody across the population.” The changes are the latest addition to a broader, long-standing alcohol education and awareness program that appears to have had some success. Through-
Firefighters face another tough day HAILEY, Idaho — Fire crews on Saturday faced another challenging day battling a rapidly growing wildfire burning closer to two posh, central Idaho resort communities, while other fires raged on in the West. In northern Utah, several manufactured homes were destroyed when the Patch Springs Fire raced through the community of Willow Springs late Friday, jumping a highway and fire lines, authorities said. As of early Saturday, officials said that blaze had burned about 33,000 acres, or more than 50 square miles. It was estimated at 20 percent contained. Idaho’s Beaver Creek Fire, meanwhile, grew by 15 square miles late Friday and early Saturday, to 144 square miles. Overnight, flames moved closer to homes and subdivisions in the mountains west and north of the communities of Hailey and Ketchum, and the Sun Valley Resort.

out the Navy, the number of alcohol-related criminal offenses dropped from 5,950 in the 2007 fiscal year to 4,216 in the 2012 fiscal year. The number of DUI offenses dropped from 2,025 to 1,218 during that same period, according to Navy Personnel Command.

At Naval Station Norfolk, the main exchange is comparable to a small shopping mall that sells clothing, electronics and jewelry, among other things, at a discount. At smaller naval bases, the exchanges aren’t as sprawling but still often have the feel of big-box retail. While hours at those stores vary, most open at 9 a.m. close by 9 p.m. The Navy’s minimarts at the Norfolk base currently start selling liquor as early as 6 a.m. That’s four hours earlier than people can buy at Virginia’s state-run ABC stores off-base that are typically open from from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekdays.
Man, 18, faces trial in killing of baby BRUNSWICK, Ga. — It was a tiny bullet that took the short life of Antonio Santiago. He had learned to walk, but not yet talk, when he was killed March 21, six weeks after his first birthday. He was strapped in his stroller, out for a walk with his mother a few blocks from their apartment near the Georgia coast, when someone shot the boy between the eyes with a .22-caliber bullet the size of a garden pea. The teenager charged as the shooter is scheduled to stand trial next week in a courthouse far from the scene of the crime. Because of public outrage and news coverage, a judge has moved 18-year-old De’Marquise Elkins’ trial 325 miles away, to the suburbs outside Atlanta. Jury selection starts Monday at the Cobb County courthouse in Marietta. Elkins faces life in prison if convicted of murder. His youth spared him a possible death sentence. At the time of the shooting he was 17, too young to face capital charges in Georgia. Investigators concluded that Antonio was killed during an attempted street robbery.

Man shoots stepson in self-defense PEARL — Pearl police say no charges are being filed in the case of a 62-year-old man who shot and killed his 40-year-old stepson. A police news release said the Friday morning shooting appears to be a case of self-defense. Police say Andrew Groseclose and Richard Groseclose got into an argument at their residence in Pearl. Richard is believed to have pulled a gun. Andrew then pulled his own gun and shot the younger man in the chest. “Witness statements confirm this scenario,” Lt. Butch Townsend, spokesman for the Pearl Police Department, said in a news release. Townsend said only one shot was fired. Although no charges are expected, the autopsy and investigation results will likely be turned over to the next session of a Rankin County Grand Jury, Townsend said. Police Chief Ben Schuler had earlier said Richard Groseclose was dead when police arrived to a domestic violence call Friday morning.

Man convicted again in wife’s death STARKVILLE — An Oktibbeha County jury has convicted a Caledonia man of first-degree murder in the 2008 death of his wife. Brian Holliman was accused of shooting his wife, Laura Lee Holliman, to death with a shotgun in their family home in October 2008. He will serve life in prison. Holliman’s earlier conviction in the death had been overturned by the Mississippi Supreme Court in 2011. The latest trial, which began Monday, included three days of testimony by state witnesses. The state rested Wednesday evening and the defense was set to begin testimony Thursday morning. However, the defense began the day by resting, without calling a single witness to the stand. The Starkville Daily News reports that the jury reached its verdict Thursday evening. Steven E. Farese, the defendant’s attorney, said it was impossible to know if the verdict might have turned out differently with defense testimony. “You wrestle with that in each and every case,” he said. “But you have
to weigh the pros and the cons and make the strategic decision that you think is best at the time. So that’s what we did.” Farese said the defendant’s team would begin working to appeal the case immediately. After the trial, District Attorney Forrest Allgood said he was satisfied so long as the victim’s family was satisfied. “It’s the people who loved Laura Lee that I’m interested in satisfying,” he said. “If they’re satisfied, I’m satisfied. That’s the biggest thing.”

NEW YORK — The back-to-school shopping season is kicking into high gear, but stores have been pushing it for a month. They’re working hard to get parents to spend, spend, spend on notebooks, computers, clothes and other student needs. The National Retail Federation trade group predicts that families with school-age children will spend an average of $634.78 on shoes, clothes, supplies and electronics, with total back-to-school spending expected to reach $72.5 billion. But how do you spend wisely and find the best deals? Here are a few tips from the experts: ■Prioritize: Even though it is tempting to get all of your shopping

done at once, you should go in steps, says Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst with The NPD Group. Buy essentials first, then hold off on anything that is more of a treat than a necessity — those sorts of items will most likely be cheaper later. “Take advantage of sales as they occur,� he says. “The longer we get into the season, the more likely products are going to go on sale.� Another reason to wait, in terms of clothing especially: the fickleness of teen fashion trends, Cohen says. Buy as much of that as you can in September or after school starts. ■Do your homework: The deals are out there, but to take advantage, you have to study up.

waste gasoline chasing nickels and dimes. Another helpful task before you hit the stores is to hit your child’s closet, and make sure you’re not buying something they already have. “There’s nothing wrong with teaching kids how to be a little bit frugal,� Cohen says. ■Capitalize on student discounts: Did you know that signing up with a .edu email address at Best Buy could get you a $100 off a MacBook or iMac? Or that Amazon offers free two-day shipping for college students? Check your favorite stores to see If they give student discounts. Even if you don’t find anything online, ask in the store.

Nanny’s bad habits threaten to outweigh her good ones DEAR ABBY: My children’s nanny, “Daisy,” has been with us for more than two years. She’s not the best, but I know I could do a lot worse. The most important thing is my children adore her and she is used to our routine. By and large, I’m happy to have her. However, I have two pet peeves I don’t know how to address. Daisy is always late. Not by much, mind you — but it is consistent. She’s at least five minutes late every single day. Maybe it shouldn’t bother me so much, but it does. I never dock her pay for tardiness, and I always pay her on time. To me, it’s a reflection of how important she views her job. I feel it is disrespectful. The kicker is, Daisy is studying to be a nurse. I have told her unless she breaks this bad habit, she’ll be fired from a future nursing job. The second thing is, on hot, humid days, Daisy has the worst body odor imaginable. When the weather is cool, she doesn’t smell, but once sticky weather arrives, the wall of stench is enough to make my nose hairs curl. One day it made me physically ill and I had to excuse her for the day without explaining why. How should I address these problems? Or am I making too
big a deal out of this? — HAVING ISSUES IN VIRGINIA D E A R HAVING ISSUES: DaiAbigail sy may not the best Van Buren be employee, but a good Dear Abby employer makes clear what the ground rules are when someone is hired. Because you’re a stickler for punctuality, remind Daisy about what her hours are and stress that you expect her to be on time or risk having her pay docked. (If she uses public transportation, there should be some flexibility, but because she’s late every day she should be told she needs to leave home a few minutes earlier.) As to her personal hygiene issue, address it directly. Tell her you expect her to have showered, used deodorant and put on fresh clothes before coming to work — especially in the summer. Helpful hint: When you hire someone, have a list of written rules prepared for the individual to read and sign so there will be no misunderstandings. Doing
that is being an effective boss. DEAR ABBY: I am going to a concert by a popular band. My brother and my cousin always make fun of this band. People commenting online also post mean things about them. I know they have a right to their own opinions, but I don’t get the same reactions when I talk about or listen to other popular music. Did people do this 10 or 20 years ago? Do they think it’s cool to express hatred about mainstream musicians? Maybe the more popular something is, the more people there are having negative feelings toward it. — FREE TO LISTEN AT 13 DEAR FREE TO LISTEN: There is always a degree of backlash against hugely popular entertainers because some people think it’s more “cool” to be a fan of a new, upcoming band. Years ago, some people loved the Beatles and hated the Rolling Stones, and vice versa. The behavior you describe has been going on ever since the music business began.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). It is possible to spend many hours with your loved ones without doing anything that would fall, technically, into the category of “constructive.” And this is perhaps the most valuable thing you could do together today. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). As your family and friends tug you in multiple directions, you shift quickly from one mood to another. As Shakespeare said, all’s well that ends well. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Yours is an emotional world now, your sensations informing you all the way. Demonstrative and physically affectionate people will connect with you when more reserved folks can’t get through. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Smart and funny usually happens within the same person. Seek companionship with those who make you laugh, and you’ll find that these types will inform some of your more serious decisions, as well.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You can fix whatever you focus on. So don’t focus on silly things that don’t matter. Focus on the big parts, the parts that will affect many if they change, or don’t change — which is likely all up to you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your desire will go before your practical concerns, which will turn the day inside out. The order of events will proceed in an incongruent manner, but all priorities will be addressed one way or another. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Gossip and intrigue will appeal to you. So what if the human interest and lifestyles features are more involving to you than weightier issues? You care about people, and that’s why you’re interested in their stories. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are complex and mysterious. You may get the feeling that no one really knows you. It’s not true, but there is certainly enough evidence for you to believe it anyway today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You’re optimistic -hopefully not overly so. Try not to read the “good” signs without paying attention to the context of the entire situation. Weigh the pros against the cons. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll create a picture in the minds of others. Your description is like an impressionistic painting, hitting all the main colors and keeping it all pretty. What about the facts? Well, you might find them overrated in today’s context. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When all eyes are on you, you’ll rise to the occasion. Clothes, style and fashion are part of the focus. Tonight brings your quick involvement in someone else’s life. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will experience life vividly and expansively. Your rich imagination will open like a cave of shimmering jewels. It is a rare and beautiful discovery, but the treasure always existed within you.

Kossuth, Corinth sweep Classic Games BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Kossuth and Corinth made the most of slow-pitch softball’s first official playing date. The Lady Aggies clubbed six homers in their 10 innings of work in beating Tupelo (13-9) and O’Bannon (14-4) at the Kossuth Klassic. Kristen Devers drove in eight total runs in six plate appearances, going 4-for-5 with five runs and two homers -- both grand slams. At Baldwyn, the defending Class 4A state champions beat the host club 10-2 before prevailing over former 1-3A
rival Booneville in nine innings. The Lady Warriors tallied 26 hits in the sweep, seven by Anna Kayte Webb. Allie Jacobs picked up both wins in complete-game fashion. Colby Cox had two hits, including a homer, and drove in four in the win over Baldwyn. Webb had four of Corinth’s 13 hits against Booneville. Lady Warriors used a fiverun ninth against the Lady Devils to close out a perfect Saturday. Rebekah Williams led the way in the night with a three-run homer. • Kossuth trailed Tupelo
4-0 before the Lady Aggies opened their new campaign at the dish. Kossuth tallied six runs on the strength of nine consecutive two-out hits. Tupelo later tied the game at 6-6 and 7-7 but Kossuth never relinquished the lead. The Lady Aggies snapped a 6-all tie on Abby Lyles’ first varsity hit -- a lead-off homer in the second. The Lady Wave tied the game at 7-7 in the fourth, before Kaylee Brooke Martin put KHS up to stay with a one-out dinger in the home half. Devers provided four insur-
ance runs with a one-out slam in the sixth. Kossuth had 20 hits, with seven players having two or more. Devers led the way with four RBI, with Madison Switcher, Alyssa Rice and Katelyn Johnson driving in two each. • In the finale, Kossuth scored a pair of runs with no outs in the fifth to end the game via the 10-run rule. Twenty-three Lady Aggies batted, with 14 recording a hit and 10 driving in at least one run. Please see SOFTBALL | 11A

Tejada suspended 105 games for PED use Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The scourge of drugs and baseball claimed its third former MVP in a month when Miguel Tejada was suspended Saturday for 105 games after testing positive for an amphetamine. The Kansas City Royals infielder drew one of the longest penalties handed down by Major League Baseball. His ban came after Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez was
suspended for 211 games and Brewers star Ryan Braun got a 65-game penalty that will keep him off the field for the rest of the season. All three stars have been dogged by doping allegations in the past. A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that Tejada tested positive for Adderall, a substance the 39-year-old has used to treat Attention Deficit Disor-
der. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because those details were not made public. “I apologize to my teammates, the Royals organization and to the Kansas City fans,” Tejada said in a statement released by the players’ association. “I have a medical condition that requires medication to treat. I took that medication while re-applying for a Therapeutic Use Exemp-
tion. Under the requirements of the Joint Drug Program, I made a mistake in doing so.” MLB’s medical staff grants therapeutic-use exemptions that allow players to use drugs such as Adderall to treat ADD. But the substance has become a popular performance-enhancer, accounting for 10 of the 11 positive stimulant tests in the major league program
Returning starting quarterback Clayton Moore, who threw for 1,863 yards and 11 touchdowns last season, is battling freshman LaMontiez Ivy for the starting job. Running backs Tommy Gooden and Rakeem Sims are also back after combining to rush for nearly 1,400 yards last season. Cornerback Qua Cox was named the SWAC’s preseason defensive player of the year after grabbing five interceptions last season.
Here are five things to watch as the Tigers try to defend their SWAC Eastern Division title: 1. MOORE FROM THE QB: Senior quarterback Clayton Moore took over the starting job midway through last season and guided the Tigers to five straight wins late in the season. He threw 11 touchdown passes and also rushed for 11 touchdowns. He’s fighting talented freshman LaMontiez Ivy for the starting job. 2. COMEGY KEEPS
WINNING: Rick Comegy enters his eighth year as Jackson State’s coach and has built a consistent winner. The Tigers are coming off a 2012 Eastern Division title and have had a winning record in six of his previous seven seasons. 3. A TOUGH START: Jackson State travels to face Tulane (which plays in the FBS) for the season opener before a showdown with Alabama State on Sept. 7. The
Roll Tide! Jackson St. ready to defend East Division title Bama No. 1 in AP poll Associated Press
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Alabama will begin this season the way it ended the last two — No. 1. Nick Saban’s two-time defending national champions are top-ranked in The Associated Press preseason college football poll, with the Crimson Tide trying to become the first team to win three straight national titles. Much like the BCS championship game against Notre Dame, the vote was an Alabama landslide. The Tide received 58 of 60 first-place votes from the media panel Saturday to easily outdistance No. 2 Ohio State. Alabama matched Florida in 2009 for the highest percentage of firstplace votes received in the 63-year history of the preseason rankings. The Buckeyes received one firstplace vote. Oregon is No. 3, followed by Stanford and Georgia, which received the other first-place vote. Notre Dame, coming off a 42-14 loss in the BCS championship game to Alabama, is No. 14. Please see POLL | 11A
JACKSON — In the unpredictable Southwestern Athletic Conference, Jackson State has been one of the few consistently successful programs. Eighth-year coach Rick Comegy says he feels “really good about this year’s team” and sees no reason why that consistency would change. The Tigers, who are coming off an Eastern Division title last season, return eight starters on offense and another seven on defense.

Auburn names Marshall starting quarterback Associated Press
AUBURN, Ala. — Dualthreat junior college transfer Nick Marshall will be Auburn’s starting quarterback in the opener against Washington State. Tigers coach Gus Malzahn said Saturday in a statement that the 6-foot-1, 210-pound Marshall rose to the top of what began as a four-man race during preseason camp. “Nick Marshall has
emerged and earned the right to be our starting quarterback,” Malzahn said, a few hours after a post-practice news conference. “As I’ve said, we wanted to go with the guy that gives us the best opportunity to win football games and Nick is that guy. He has caught on quickly in the short period of time he has been with us. He is a playmaker with a big upside, and once he becomes more
comfortable with the offense, he has the chance to improve each week.” Marshall played cornerback and special teams as a freshman at Georgia. He and two other freshmen were dismissed from the team in February 2012 for undisclosed violations. Marshall flourished on offense in his lone season at Garden City Community College in Kansas, pass-
ing for 3,142 yards and 18 touchdowns while rushing for 1,095 yards 19 scores. Malzahn’s last Auburn SECto-JUCO-to-SEC transfer quarterback, Cam Newton, won the 2010 Heisman Trophy and led the Tigers to a national title. Marshall set the Georgia High School Association record with 103 career touchPlease see AUBURN | 11A

down passes. Auburn tight end C.J. Uzomah, also from Georgia, said he watched Marshall’s basketball highlights “and knew he was as athletic as anything.” “Him coming here and showing how athletic he is and how fast he is and his ability to extend the play and make things happen with his legs . it’s something you just have to watch,” Uzomah said. “You can’t really say, ‘All right, the defensive end would have tackled him.’ Probably not. He probably would have run out. He’s a blazing guy. It’s something kind of special.” Malzahn had narrowed it down to the two newcomers, Marshall and
freshman Jeremy Johnson, early this week. Former starter Kiehl Frazier moved to safety. Sophomore Jonathan Wallace ended last season as the starter. H-back Jay Prosch said Marshall stood out as practice went along. “This summer I noticed he had a great arm and could really throw the ball and move really well at workouts,” Prosch said. “When camp started it was kind of the same stuff really. It took a while for me to figure out and see differences. It was definitely hard on Nick and Jeremy coming in and not knowing much about the offense and not having the spring. Now I can see a big difference. They have adapted and are doing very well.”

Hornets and Tigers are both expected to contend for the SWAC’s Eastern Division title. 4. COX LEADS DEFENSE: Jackson State’s defense returns seven starters from last season, including senior defensive back Qua Cox. Cox was named the SWAC’s preseason defensive
player of the year after leading the league with five interceptions last season. 5. OPTIONS AT RUNNING BACK: Jackson State returns both Tommy Gooden and Rakeem Sims, who combined to rush for nearly 1,400 yards last season. Predicted finish: Second in the East.
POLL CONTINUED FROM 10A
Alabama won its record ninth AP national championship last season, third BCS title in the last four years under Saban, and became the first team to win back-to-back BCS championships. The Tide is AP preseason No. 1 for the fourth time, and first since 2010. Alabama was ranked No. 2 in the preseason poll each of the last two seasons. The only time has Alabama started and finished No. 1 was 1978, when Bear Bryant led the Crimson Tide to the fourth of its five national championships with him as coach. Now Saban’s Tide is trying to accomplish something Bear’s boys never could. Twice Alabama won back-to-back championships under Bryant, but couldn’t get the third. Saban is hoping senior stars such as quarterback AJ McCarron, linebacker C.J. Mosley, defensive end Ed Stinson and guard Anthony Steen have enough memories of what went wrong for the 2010 Alabama team to avoid it happening in 2013. “You’re in a position

in the year ending with the 2012 World Series, according to the annual report of the Independent Program Administrator. The report, which was released in November, said that medication for ADD accounted for 116 of 119 therapeutic-use exemptions granted by Major League Baseball. Tejada, who was already on the 60-day disabled list with a calf injury, previously tested positive under the league’s amphetamine policy. That subjected him to a 25-game ban for a second test and an 80game suspension for a third. He is not challenging the penalties. Tejada will miss the remainder of this season, which exhausts his contract with Kansas City. If he signs for next season, he would miss about two months before becoming eligible to play. “It doesn’t matter if you’re MVP or king of the world. If you’re going to do things that are illegal, you’re going to get caught for it and you’re going to get suspended,” Royals

for a purpose, and this is another indication that it’s working and serving its purpose.” Royals shortstop Alcides Escobar said that many of Tejada’s teammates learned of the suspension while watching TV in the clubhouse before their game Saturday night in Detroit. “Maybe he made a mistake. I don’t know,” Escobar said. “That’s a good guy, a really good teammate. That’s one of the best guys in here. Yeah, I was surprised.” A six-time All-Star and
the AL MVP in 2002, Tejada’s prodigious talent has been called into question more than once by doping allegations that have cropped up throughout his career. The first significant mention of his name came in the Mitchell Report on steroids use in baseball. Then in February 2009, he was charged with lying to Congress about performanceenhancing drugs in the game. Tejada pleaded guilty to the charge and received one year of probation.

here where we have a lot of players that really haven’t lost much,” Saban said earlier this week. “They have to really want to be good for the sake of being good. Alabama is 49-5 over the past four seasons, with three of those losses coming in ‘10. “Most other teams are out there saying we’ve got something to prove,” Saban said. “Well, this team has something to prove. It’s a lot more difficult not to be a little bit complacent, not to keep the same accountability to being successful that’s necessary. You’ve got to challenge yourself every day. You’ve got to challenge each other.” Since the poll started in 1936, 10 times has a school has won consecutive AP championships. The Tide’s task: complete the hat trick.

pitcher James Shields said. “It’s a shame because I really like him a lot as a teammate.” Tejada’s suspension is one of the longest nonlifetime bans in baseball history. Along with Rodriguez’s suspension, Pascual Perez was banned for the 1992 season for a positive cocaine test and Dwight Gooden barred for the ‘95 season for violating his drug after-care program. Rodriguez and Braun received their penalties for their connection to the Biogenesis clinic in Florida that has been accused of dispensing banned drugs. A-Rod was among 13 players suspended 12 days ago by MLB, while Braun was penalized earlier this year. “I think it’s another positive sign that the testing continues to work and that those players who commit infractions against the drug policy are being penalized accordingly,” Royals pitcher Jeremy Guthrie said. “It’s unfortunate when it’s a friend of yours and a teammate but the testing is there

Words, actions affect dealing with difficult people One of life’s frustrations is having to deal with difficult people. Everyone has to interact with them. There is no escaping these troublesome individuals. You can encounter them in virtually any situation. You call your credit card company and customer service is rude. Your boss keeps changing priorities and then reprimands you for not getting things done. Someone you supervise always has an excuse for being late. You have trouble getting an insurance claim resolved. You call a government office and it’s impossible to find a person who can help you. A relative or friend always drops by without calling and doesn’t get your hints that it’s often inconvenient. When dealing with diffi-
cult people, your words and actions affect the outcome. You play a role, so Bryan you need to Golden be proactive. Don’t Dare to Live start out Without Limits assuming there will be a problem. Expect that all will work out. Positive expectation is a powerful force. Focus on what you want to accomplish. Don’t get sidetracked into irrelevant arguments. You can’t control difficult people but you can control your reaction to them. No one can take advantage of you without your permission. Regardless of how difficult the other person is,
don’t loose your cool. Once you do, it’s virtually impossible to achieve your objective. Although it can be challenging, be kind and considerate. Treat everyone with respect. Remain calm and rational. Don’t get defensive or lose your temper. You don’t want to burn bridges or say things you will regret. Address the actions of the difficult person or the issues. Don’t insult or get personal. Don’t make it an issue of pride, dignity, or image. An attitude of “I don’t have to take that” is not productive. Know yourself and what sets you off. Visualize not reacting to those things you are sensitive to. Many difficult people thrive on pushing your buttons in order to set you off. When they
fail to get the reaction they want, they move on. Just because someone acts, you aren’t obligated to react. Break the pattern. Do what the other person doesn’t expect. Don’t get dragged into a shouting match. When someone yells, lower your voice. Speak slowly. Whenever you react in kind, the situation escalates. Don’t just complain, suggest alternatives. Lead with questions rather than by making statements. For example ask, “If you were in my position how would you feel? What would you do?” Give people a choice. “I can either do this or that.” Or, “You can either do this or that. What do you prefer?” Don’t internalize what a difficult person does. Feelings of bitterness, anger,
‘Home, sweet home’ is peanut lady’s paradise BY JIMMY REED Columnist
“He was such good man,” the tiny Oriental woman said in tortured English, handing me a bag of peanuts. A solitary tear coursed down her leathery, grieving face. “One minute we talk, next minute he fall dead.” She made change from a battered cash box, and then looked up at me with that courageous, stiffupper-lip determination I had grown to admire in her. “I miss him much,” she sighed, staring past me at something only she could see, and turned to her next customer. Folks raised below the Mason-Dixon line cannot drive past roadside stands selling boiled peanuts. I certainly can’t, and the peanut lady boiled the best goobers this Southern boy has ever gobbled. At the time, I wasn’t pulling down anything near Bill Gates’ paycheck,
and I went into sticker shock when the orthodontist said, “Son, not even a self-respecting garfish would put up with a set of teeth like your daughter’s. The braces she’ll need to make her smile as beautiful as the rest of her will run you five grand.” I would have to moonlight to pay him, so I took a weekend truck-driving job with a route running right by the peanut lady’s place of business. It was miserable … an ancient Volkswagen van parked on a concrete slab in front of an abandoned service station just off the interstate. A huge vat hung from its rear, along with a propane bottle connected to a burner beneath the vat. Rickety wooden steps allowed the short little woman to climb up to the vat’s rim and stir the boiling peanuts. Despite the steam and summer heat, she prepared them daily for a steady stream of cus-
tomers. After an overseas military tour, her husband had brought her back from the Far East. Other than counting the money his wife made, I never saw him turn a hand to help her. A huge bear of a guy with tattooed arms and chest, he lounged in the van all day, dressed in cut-off jeans and tank shirt, smoking cigarettes, sipping beer, and watching a rabbit-eared television. What the peanut lady saw in that meathead, I’ll never know. Now he was gone and she missed him, but wasn’t about to quit working. Well before dawn each day, she parked the van, fired up the burner, and toiled until sundown. Every weekend, I chatted with her, trying to brighten her spirits. One torridly hot July day, right after the Fourth, I asked her why she didn’t return to her

home country, now that her husband had died. Shaking her head vigorously, she glared at me in amazement. “Go back!” she gasped. “You crazy? In America, I free to work for myself, make money, buy things. Back there, I no work for myself, I no make money, I have nothing, not always get enough to eat. Sometimes you Americans forget how wonderful this country. It — How you say? — a paradise.” God bless America, my home, sweet home … the peanut lady’s paradise.

and resentment are toxic to you. Some difficult people even take pleasure when you react in this way. When these feelings start to take hold, let them go. There’s no benefit to allowing difficult people to control your emotions. You can’t change difficult people. Recognize people for who they are and work to change your reaction to them. Trying to change someone else is an exercise in futility which causes you stress. Difficult people can try to you feel bad about their problems. They will use their problems as an excuse for their behavior. Don’t make their problems yours. Everyone has issues that must be dealt with. Problems do not justify inappropriate behavior.
Whenever possible, avoid difficult people altogether. Politely excuse yourself by mentioning that you have other commitments or tasks to attend to. Avoid being drawn into arguments or contentious conversations. Dealing with difficult people is frustrating. Learn to alter your reaction. Keep your objective in sight. Practice the strategies listed above. You will greatly improve your effectiveness while reducing your stress.

shoot,” said the club’s Mike Gilmore. “The hands-on experience is what draws them … if they ever get the fever to do something, that’s what they want to do.” Youngsters got an up close view of the shooting club from Gilmore and Brent King. They then got to fire five shots at an indoor target. “This lets them see what we are doing in the club,” said Gilmore. “Most shoot the first time and then make their way back over here to shoot again.” Lisha Hopper with the Wenasoga 4-H Lucky Clovers captured the children’s attention by giving them the chance to plant a flower. “Kids love dirt and planting flowers,” she said of the third generation club. There were all kinds of games inside the exten-
sion building along with pony rides and an inflatable jumper outside. All the games and food during the day were provided at no cost to those who attended, “We have had a great turnout,” said Parker. “Several members of 4-H have helped out today and by them being here it gives other kids an opportunity to talk with someone who is part of 4-H.” 4-H is the nation’s largest youth development organization. More than six million 4-H youth in urban neighborhoods, suburban schoolyards and rural farming communities stand out among their peers -- building revolutionary opportunities and implementing community-wide change at an early age. 4-H offers numerous programs and growth opportunities that put the heads, hearts, hands and health of youth to work learning and applying the essential elements of the 4-H program.

The incommunicable experience of war Back in 1990 director Ken Burns released his masterpiece, “The Civil War,” which played for millions on PBS. I didn’t see it when it first came out. I was on a big gray ship in the Persian Gulf waiting for Desert Storm to kick-off. My sister Laura taped the show on VHS and mailed it to me on the U.S.S. Guam. You should have seen it -- a whole room full of Chief Petty Officers glued to the TV. When it time Tom was for me Parson to go on watch, I Park Ranger went to take the tape from the machine and was threatened with physical violence. There were bad words, too. I left the VCR playing as I went back to work. The film is that engaging. I have seen the documentary countless times over the years and I am always moved by a quote from Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., a young soldier who would later become Chief Justice of the United States. He said, “We have shared the incommunicable experience of war, we have felt, we still feel, the passion of life to its top. In our youth our hearts were touched with fire.” Each week I try to describe to you a bit of what Holmes claimed was indescribable. Even at my best I don’t even come close. Think about it. Here I am in my air-conditioned cubicle, sitting at my keyboard and monitor and trying to describe something I have not seen and did not witness. I’ve found the best way to communicate the incommunicable is to let the participants use their own words. You know the old line about getting it straight from the horse’s mouth. It’s strange, but even they said they could never really describe the very things they’d seen with their own eyes. Take the case of Private Alexandre Livaudais, a young Creole in the 18th Louisiana Infantry, who wrote about his nightmare passage to Corinth.
“Mrs. Ogdon tried to prepare me for the scenes which I should witness upon entering the wards. But alas! Nothing that I have ever heard or read had given me the faintest idea of the horrors witnessed here.” Kate Cumming Confederate nurse
Confederate nurse Kate Cumming
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. “We left Grand Junction and arrived in Corinth yesterday after a bad enough journey. We were not able to sleep all night as we were in cattle cars. There were three inches of dirt on the floor, a suffocating odor of cattle bile and, furthermore, we were so crowded it was impossible to sit down. The weather was hot and it rained almost all night.” And then there was Kate Cumming, the young nurse from Mobile who saw far more than anyone should have to see. In the pages of her diary she strained to record the images. “Mrs. Ogdon tried to prepare me for the scenes which I should witness upon entering the wards. But alas! Nothing that I have ever heard or read had given me the faintest idea of the horrors witnessed here. I do not think there are words in our vocabulary expressive enough to present to the mind the realities of that sad scene. Certainly none of the glories of war were presented here. Gray haired men, men in the pride of manhood, beardless boys, Federals and all, mutilated in every imaginable way, lying on
the floor, just as they were taken from the battlefield, so close together that it was almost impossible to walk without stepping on them.” Where did these scenes of horror occur that tormented Kate’s senses? If you have ever been to the Green Market on a Saturday morning you have walked over the very ground she describes. By far the most intense descriptions came from the pens of the men who had been in the October battle. Sergeant Abraham Slough of the 59th Indiana tried his best to explain the ear shattering noise of the first day of the battle. “Imagine yourself close to the roof of a house in a heavy shower of rain and let the rain drops answer for the fire of small-arms and then imagine it thundering about ten times as fast as ever you heard it thunder in your life and imagine that cannonading and then you have a faint idea of the noise of a battle.” Sergeant Sam Byers of the 5th Iowa Infantry made his way into the downtown area that night and observed a number of inexpressible sights
reflected in the flickering light and shadows of candles, torches and bonfires. “Never will I forget the horrible scenes of that night. The town seemed full of the groans of dying men. In one large room of the Tishomingo House surgeons worked all the night, cutting off arms and legs…I saw the floor, tables, and chairs covered with the amputated limbs, some white and broken and bleeding. There were simply bushels of them, and the floor was running blood.” Two nights later the Confederate army was crossing the Hatchie River at Crum’s Mill. Another battle had been fought downstream at Davis Bridge, a fight that had bought time for the army to escape the clutches of two Union forces closing in for the kill. The exhausted soldiers crossed the improvised bridge in the dead of night. A Mississippi private, Hugh Carlisle, tried to capture the moment in his journal. “Shall that night ever be forgotten? Will its vivid impressions ever be erased? Dust, like a heavy impenetrable fog obscuring our comrades at arm’s length, was constantly stirred from the ashy soil.
Burning, overturned wagons wrought lurid ghosts in dusty gleams through the forest. This is the darkest gloom that has ever been mine in struggling for freedom.” Last of all is Lt. Charles Labuzan of the 42nd Alabama Infantry who was not with the army when they crossed the Hatchie. He remained in Corinth as a prisoner. I devoted an entire article to what he saw in Corinth and his ability to capture the images in words. Even he struggled to describe the intensely personal combat on the very walls of Battery Robinett. “The ground was literally strewn with corpses. I rushed to the ditch of the fort right between some large cannon. I grappled into it and half way up the sloping walls. The enemy were only 3 or 4 feet from me on the other side but could not shoot for fear of having their own heads blown off. A man within 2 feet of me put his head cautiously up to shoot into the fort but he suddenly dropped his musket and his brains were dashed in a stream over my fine coat which I have in my arms and on my shirt sleeves.” A few feet away, he observed the death of the commander of Company
A, Captain G.W. Foster. As graphic as his last description was, his account of Foster’s last moments is even worse. I’ll share it with you if you come by the center, but not here in the newspaper. As he lay trapped behind a tree stump, Labuzan saw carnage that few have ever witnessed. He was one of the lucky ones. Though he was captured, he survived and he wrote a lengthy letter in which he tries to describe what no one else could possibly comprehend. He was only 22 years old at the time of the Battle of Corinth, not much more than a boy. Labuzan’s letter is rather rare, almost unique, for few soldiers were willing to share the horrors in their letters home. Men might mention they were in a battle but not wishing to frighten the folks at home they kept the details to themselves. In later years there were even fewer who wished to share “the incommunicable experience of war.” Understandably, it was a place they did not want to revisit. Charles lived into his 90th year and was certainly one of those who Oliver Wendell Holmes was speaking of when he said, “In our youth our hearts were touched with fire.” (Tom Parson is a National Park Service ranger at the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center.)
Despite general’s fall, Confederates push on during battle (The following compilation of the Battle of Iuka was transcribed by RaNae Vaughn from The Iuka Vidette, dated May 20, 1909.)
Story of the Battle The Battle of Iuka was fought on the 19th day of September, 1862, between two Confederate and two Federal infantry brigades, the former being a part of Gen. Sterling Price’s Army Corps and the latter a part of Gen. Rosecrans’ Corps. The Confederates were under the immediate command of Gen. Little and the Federals under Gen. Hamilton. The engagement began about 4:30 p.m. and ended at dark. General Price’s headquarters in Iuka was at the Moore place, now occupied by T. M. McDonald. He had about 10,000 men. Gen. Grant had a force of men at Burnsville and kept a show of advance from that section. Price was busy watching. Grant and Rosecrans executed a flanking movement via Jacinto and came up in his rear. It seems that General Price
was ignorant of this flanking movem e n t until the advance of RaNae the FedVaughn erals was within two Historically or three Speaking m i l e s of Iuka. Then he awoke to the danger of the situation and ordered the brigades of Little and Martin to double-quick out on the Burnt Mills Road and engage the enemy. This they did, and hastily forming on top of the hill beyond the Hubbard Branch, advanced in line of battle through the woods. Reaching the top of the second hill, they came within range of the 11th Ohio Battery, and a charge was ordered. Just at this time, or a little before, Gen. Little fell from a bullet through the brain, but this did not check the charge; on swept the Confederate line of battle under a heavy fire of both artillery and small arms. Brave men fell at every step, but the survivors pushed dauntlessly on,
firing withering volleys into the Federal ranks as they advanced. It was a scene never to be forgotten by those who witnessed it. As the line of the Confederates advanced, it obstructed the fire of the St. Louis battery, which was forced to cease firing from danger of hitting their own men, but the Federal artillery redoubled its fire. The ground quivered from the rapid discharges, while the branches from the forest trees fairly rained down. A brisk wind was blowing from the north which carried away the dense volume of smoke and kept the air comparatively clear. Whitfield’s Texas Legion covered both sides of the main road as they advanced up the hill. Reaching the summit, the road veers almost at right angles toward the east. It was here that the line of brave Texans first came under the enemy’s artillery and infantry fire. They poured a volley into the regiment of the enemy immediately in their front -- the 48th Indiana -- which caused the latter to give way.
The 3rd Texas, another band of heroic troops, was on their left and more immediately in front of the Federal battery. It was evident that the battery must be taken, and that speedily, or else the two regiments would soon be swept from the face of the earth. Col. Whitfield ordered a charge. This was responded to with a cheer which passed down the line and was taken up by the 3rd Texas and the two small Arkansas regiments. In a moment, the whole line swept forward in a resistless charge. Immediately in front of the Texas was a deep ravine which heads near the forks of the road. This protected them for a few moments, but when they reached the crest of the hill within 50 steps of the battery, they were greeted with a storm of grape and canister that tore a big gap in their ranks, but the shock scarcely checked their advance distinguishably, and on they rushed. Before the few surviving Federal artillerist could reload their pieces, the Texans were upon them, and the battery was captured. Lieut. Wynn,
of the Texas Legion, was the first man to place his hand upon a Federal cannon, and just as he did so, he fell pierced by a mortal wound. Perceiving that the 48th Indiana, which had fled before the first fire of Whitfield’s men, had now partially rallied and was advancing on his right, Capt. Whitfield, acting as major, ordered three companies to drive them back, which they promptly did. In this fight, Lieut. W. W. Townsend, with a dragoon pistol, shot and wounded Col. Eddy, commanding the Indiana regiment. The carnage in front and around this battery was something fearful. Not less than 300 men lay dead within a radius of 100 yards around this place, besides twice as many wounded. The Federals were driven back several hundred yards, and night found the Confederates in possession of the field. The men who had done the fighting were relieved by fresh troops soon after dark, who threw out pickets. About 3 o’clock the next morning, the Confeder-
ates evacuated Iuka and retired down the Fulton Road. A large number of wounded was left behind, and some stragglers were captured early the next morning when the Federals marched into town. There have been few harder fought battles than that of Iuka, when we consider the number engaged and the time in which the battle was fought. All authorities concur in stating that the fight began at or about 4:30 p.m. and was closed at dark. At the season -- September 19th -- the sun sets at 6 o’clock and dark comes on 40 or 50 minutes later, so the engagement could not have extended over a period of more than two hours; yet in that space of time between 1,000 and 1,500 men were killed and wounded out of a force of not more than 6,000 men actually engaged in that battle.

State announces late season waterfowl dates The Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks approved and released dates for the 20132014 waterfowl hunting season at the conclusion of its monthly meeting held in July. “Breeding populations were strong in 2013, which resulted in a liberal season framework of 60 days with a six-duck limit,� said James Callicutt, Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks waterfowl program biologist. Duck, merganser, and coot seasons will be Nov. 22- Nov. 24; Nov. 29Dec. 1; and Dec. 4-Jan. 26, 2014. The daily bag limit will be a total of six ducks, including no more than four mallards (no more than

two can be females), three wood ducks, two redheads, two scaup, two pintail, two canvasback, one mottled duck, and one
black duck. Possession limit is three times the daily bag limit for ducks, mergansers, and coots. Late-season Canada, snow, blue, Ross’s, whitefronted goose, and brant seasons will run from Nov. 14 through Jan. 26, 2014. Canada geese will have a three-bird daily bag limit with the possession limit being three times the

Snow, blue, and Ross’s geese will have a daily bag limit of 20 birds, while white-fronted geese will have a daily limit of two birds. The possession limit is six for white-fronted geese and there is no possession limit for snow, blue, and Ross’s geese. As in past years, there will once again be a con-
servation order for snow, blue, and Ross’s geese during the following dates: Oct. 1-Nov. 13; Jan. 27-31, 2014; and Feb. 2 through March 31, 2014. Two days are set aside as youth waterfowl hunting days. The dates are Nov. 16 and Feb. 1, 2014. “Allowing one day of youth waterfowl hunting before the regular waterfowl season allows opportunities for youth
to experience waterfowl hunting during a time when weather is relatively mild, and birds are typically concentrated and easier to hunt,� explained MDWFP Waterfowl Program Leader Houston Havens.� This also allows youth to be introduced to hunting before the regular season begins.� Based on aerial surveys conducted earlier this year, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates the total breeding duck population to be upwards of 45 million, which is slightly lower than last year’s estimate but considerably higher than the projected long term average. Strong population estimates are reason enough to be optimistic, but that
may or may not to equate to superb duck hunting action this fall and winter. Hunters will still be reliant on Mother Nature for delivering adequate rainfall and timely cold fronts to get waves of birds flying south in droves.

This time of year, it’s a good idea to think about hunter safety BY JAMES L. CUMMINGS Conservation Corner
It’s now that time of year that we take to the fields, woodlands and waters not only to experience the excitement of hunting, but also to enjoy the beauty of our environment. The increasing criticism of today’s hunting problems points directly at the misuse of the privilege of hunting. Tomorrow’s privileges may rely on our ability to correct such misuse through education. Hunter education is a step in the right direction. Mississippi’s hunter education programs promote responsible, ethical conduct, emphasize the importance of wildlife
management and encourage the safe handling of firearms and ammunition. Students of hunter education courses develop a better understanding of their responsibilities to the wildlife resource, the landowner, other hunters and themselves. In addition, statistics prove that the number of hunting accidents is significantly lower for those who have completed a hunter education course. In recent years, there have been over 200 hunting accidents recorded in Mississippi. Less than 15 percent of these accidents involved people with training in hunter education. Mississippi’s hunter education program has
Students of hunter education courses develop a better understanding of their responsibilities to the wildlife resource, the landowner, other hunters and themselves. been ranked in the top 10 nationwide. In 1988, a law was passed by the Mississippi Legislature that requires all persons born on or after January 1, 1972, to complete a hunter education course prior to purchasing a hunting license. A course in hunter education provides one with many facts about hunting such as hunter ethics and responsibility, the history
of firearms, firearms handling and safety, accident prevention, ammunition safety, ballistic and range, hypothermia, marksmanship, safe shooting zones, water safety and wildlife identification. Hunter education also teaches the importance of wildlife management and conservation, as well as game care, specialty hunting (muzzle loading, bow hunting and handguns),
first aid and survival. Written laws cannot ensure the safety of all hunters; therefore, each hunter should follow an unwritten code of ethics. Hunters’ codes are based on respect for wildlife, the land we live on and others’ rights, as well as for themselves. Irresponsible hunters give a bad public image of all hunters. There are many things a responsible hunter can do to improve their image. Hunters should always leave fences and gates as they found them. When livestock is allowed to get loose, the landowner ends up doing additional work. Thoughtless use of vehicles often damages
fields and roads. A good sportsman would never leave litter behind. Also, never practice your aim by shooting bottles, insulators or road signs. These actions cause damage and debris that other people have to correct or pay for. Always be respectful and try to leave conditions better than you found them. (Daily Corinthian columnist James L. Cummins is executive director of Wildlife Mississippi, a non-profit, conservation organization founded to conserve, restore and enhance fish, wildlife and plant resources throughout Mississippi.

SEOUL, South Korea — Standing by a French chateau’s window, the bride-to-be glows in the afternoon sun as she gazes into her fiancé’s eyes. This Chinese couple’s fairytale moment, however, isn’t unfolding at a Bordeaux estate. The 20-something Beijing lawyers and fans of South Korean pop idol Rain are part of a small but growing number of affluent Chinese for whom the craze for all things South Korean means flying to Seoul for the weekend to have wedding pictures taken. China is the source of one quarter of all tourists to South Korea, and a handful of companies in South Korea’s $15 billion wedding industry are wooing an image-conscious slice of the Chinese jet set happy to drop several thousand dollars on a wedding album with a South Korean touch. The draw for many of the well-heeled Chinese isn’t Seoul’s ancient palaces or the fiery cuisine. It’s an elegant urban style exemplified by Gangnam, the tony Seoul district made globally famous by South Korean rapper PSY’s “Gangnam Style.” Helping shape that image is the popularity of South Korean cosmetics and fashion and the many South Korean stars whose looks are widely copied in China. “The style in South Korea is more sophisticated
“The style in South Korea is more sophisticated and cuter than what we have in China.” Yang Candi Bride-to-be and cuter than what we have in China. We came here because South Korea is the leader in fashion and makeup,” said the bride-to-be, Yang Candi, as two stylists fussed over her hair with a curling iron and giant hair clips during a recent photo shoot. South Korea’s tourism ministry estimates that more than 2.5 million Chinese visitors spent an average of $2,150 per person in 2012, more than any other nationality. That’s helping companies such as iWedding, which is the largest of the South Korean wedding planners hosting Chinese tourists, to flourish. Every month for more than a year, iWedding has done business with 50 to 60 Chinese couples, the company said, including the Beijing attorneys whose love of South Korean TV shows and music brought them to Seoul. A South Korean competitor, Design Wedding, recently partnered with a Chinese company in Shanghai and has photographed more than 50 Chinese couples since May. Chuka Club, another South Korean wedding planner, said it gets Chinese clients even though it doesn’t advertise on Chinese websites
like rivals iWedding and Design Wedding. “Chinese look up to South Korea for its sophisticated urban culture, style and beauty,” said Song Sung-uk, professor of South Korean pop culture studies at the Catholic University of Korea in Seoul. “Rather than visiting traditional palaces or shopping for antiques, they would rather go to Gangnam to experience state-of-theart shopping malls.” Song said South Korea, which built the fourth largest economy in Asia from the rubble of the 1950-53 Korean War, is synonymous with the good life that middleclass Chinese aspire to. South Korea’s pop culture plays a big part in cultivating that image. “I always wanted to come here, especially after watching South Korean TV shows,” said the groom-to-be, Chen Jingjing, his face gleaming with liquid foundation, his eyebrows carefully contoured. The couple said they had high expectations for their trip and were excited about the prospect of glamorous photos mimicking the pampered lifestyles of their favorite South Korean celebrities. The trip, they said, would also give them bragging
rights at home with their friends and family. After nearly three hours of hair, makeup and frequent amorous glances, Chen and Yang, dressed in wedding white, are chauffeured to a nearby photo studio where they spend the next eight hours striking poses before facades resembling cobblestoned streets or Loire Valley estates. The continental European backdrop is a favorite of Chinese visitors and South Koreans. The heart of the day for Yang and Chen was overseen by a nimble South Korean photographer who orchestrates the eight-hour photo session with an air of Gangnam cool, cooing enthusiastically to get the couple’s poses just right. Other helpers rushed to adjust Yang’s hair or dust off Chen’s lapel as mellow South Korean pop tunes wafted from speakers embedded in the ceiling. The photographs are arranged in a leatherbound album, part of a South Korean package for couples that includes transportation, doting assistants and a hotel option, according to Yu Mira, a Chinese-speaking South Korean coordinator at iWedding. The service costs $2,000 to $4,000. Yu said the reason cosmopolitan Chinese come all the way to South Korea for wedding pictures is a higher quality photography and makeup service than they’d get in China.
Natchez Trace Parkway offering photography program For the Daily Corinthian
TUPELO — To celebrate the 97th anniversary of the National Park Service, the Natchez Trace Parkway will offer an interactive photography program at the Chickasaw Village Site (milepost 261.8 near Tupelo) on Saturday, Aug. 24 at 8 a.m. This onehour program is open to all ages and all ability levels; beginner photographers are welcome. Par-
ticipants can bring their digital camera and join a ranger to learn the basics of landscape photography and practice these skills. For those without cameras, some onetime-use cameras may be available. Visitors are encouraged to wear sunscreen, a hat, comfortable walking shoes, and bring insect repellent. On Aug. 25, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed into law legisla-
tion creating the National Park Service. The National Park Service was directed “to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.” A photography exhibit featuring images of na-
tional parks from across the country is on display through the month of August at the Natchez Trace Parkway Visitor Center (milepost 266, near Tupelo). The exhibit features photos from visitors, staff and junior rangers. This event is free to the public. (For additional information, call: 662-6804027 or visit www.nps. gov/natr.)

Digital era threatens tenuous future of drive-ins The Associated Press
LANCASTER, Ohio — Through 80 summers, drive-in theaters have managed to remain a part of the American fabric, surviving technological advances and changing tastes that put thousands out of business. Now the industry says a good chunk of the 350 or so left could be forced to turn out the lights because they can’t afford to adapt to the digital age. Movie studios are phasing out 35 mm film prints, and the switch to an eventually all-digital distribution system is pushing the outdoor theaters to make the expensive change to digital projectors. The $70,000-plus investment required per screen is significant, especially for what is in most places a summertime business kept alive by mom-and-pop operators. Paying for the switch would suck up most owners’ profits for years to come. The United Drive-In Theatre Owners Asso-
ciation figures 50 to 60 theaters have already converted. At least one operator decided to close instead of switch, but it’s not clear how many more might bite the dust. “Everyone knows eventually that you’ll be digital or you’ll close your doors,” says Walt Effinger, whose Skyvue Drive-In in the central Ohio town of Lancaster has been showing movies on an 80-foot screen since 1948. “Some will. If you’re not doing enough business to justify the expense, you’re just going to have to close up.” Effinger worked at the Skyvue off and on for 30 years before he and his wife, Cathie, bought it two decades ago. They converted to digital last year, the first of the state’s 29 drive-ins to do so. Because the films now come on a device the size of a portable hard drive and are downloaded to his projector, it’s less hassle for him on movie nights and gives viewers a stunningly brighter, clearer image.
Cryptoquip
States with the most remaining drive-in theaters The states with the most remaining drive-in theaters, according to the United Drive-In Theatre Owners Association: 1. Pennsylvania, 30 2. Ohio and New York, 29 each 3. Indiana, 20 4. California, 18 5. Tennessee and Texas, 15 each Six states — Alaska, Delaware, Hawaii, Louisiana, North Dakota and Wyoming — have no driveins. Think of the picture on a flat-screen digital TV, compared with the old tube set. The digital transformation has been underway in the film industry for more than a decade because of the better picture and sound quality and the ease of delivery — no more huge reels of film. The time frame isn’t clear, but production companies are already phasing out traditional 35 mm
film, and it’s expected to disappear completely over the next few years. “We know fewer and fewer prints are being struck,” says D. Edward Vogel, who runs the historic Bengies Drive-In in Baltimore and is spokesman for the United DriveIn Theatre Owners Association. An industry incentive program will reimburse theater owners 80 percent of the cost of conversion
over time, Vogel says, but because most drive-ins are small, family-run businesses, it’s hard for many to find the money, period. And the reimbursement doesn’t cover the tens of thousands of dollars more that many will have to spend renovating projection rooms to create the climate-controlled conditions needed for the hightech equipment. It’s a dilemma also faced by the nation’s small independent theaters, many of them struggling to pay for conversion to digital years after corporate-owned multiplexes already did it. Darci and Bill Wemple, owners of two drive-ins in upstate New York, hope an online competition will help them with the $225,000 to $250,000 they figure it will cost to switch their three screens. The American Honda Motor Co. is compiling online votes for the nation’s favorite drive-ins and is going to pay the digital conversion costs for the top five vote-getters. The
Wemples say that if they don’t get help, they’ll have to consider closing up. “To make this kind of conversion with three screens is like trying to buy another drive-in all over again,” says Darci Wemple, whose El Rancho theater in Palatine Bridge is among dozens of drive-ins featured in the Honda ad promotion. The number of driveins peaked at more than 4,000 in the late 1950s. Now there are 357. Robyn Deal and Dave Foraker have been going to the Skyvue in Lancaster since they were both in school in the 1960s and early ’70s. On a recent weekend night, they sat together in folding chairs outside their car just before a double feature of “Turbo” and “The Wolverine.” “So much of our heritage is going away, and this is one of them,” said the 60-year-old Foraker. “A lot of the things I did when I was kid are gone,” he said. “I think they’re trying to keep what’s left.”
Thousands gather to honor Elvis at annual Graceland vigil The Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Elvis Presley fans from around the world made their annual pilgrimage to Graceland on Thursday to pay their respects to the rock n’ roll icon with a solemn candlelight vigil on the 36th anniversary of his death. Thousands of Presley fans carried lit candles as they walked silently through the Mediation Garden at Graceland, Presley’s longtime Memphis home. The garden is the location of Presley’s grave and also is the spot where his mother, father and grandmother are buried. Wreaths of flowers and pictures of Presley encircled the grave, while shadows cast by the glowing candles danced along the stone wall surrounding the garden. Soft music played in the mild night, as some in the procession bowed their heads or cried quietly. Each year, fans of Presley’s music and movies come to Memphis for Elvis Week, the weeklong celebration of his life and career. Presley died on Aug. 16, 1977, of a heart attack after battling prescription drug abuse. The vigil is the highlight of Elvis Week, which this year featured a listening party at Stax Records for the recent release of the three-CD box set “Elvis at Stax.” Performances by Presley tribute artists and a screening of the “Aloha from Hawaii” television program from January 1973 are other featured events of the weeklong reunion, which wraps up Saturday. Police estimated 35,000 people would attend the vigil. Last year, an estimated 75,000 people descended on Graceland for the event. Elvis’ ex-wife Priscilla Presley and his
daughter Lisa Marie Presley spoke at last year’s event, the first time they appeared together at the vigil since it began. Christine Jeffords made her fifth trip to Graceland with her husband Jon and three other members of a fan club called the Elvis Midwest Mafia, whose members are from Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin. They wore red Tshirts with Presley’s image emblazoned on a king of hearts playing card on the front. The back of their shirts had a quote that gives one reason why fans have made repeated trips to Memphis for Elvis Week and the vigil: “If you have a friend who is an Elvis fan, you have a friend for life.” “Where else can you go where you meet people from year to year who have the same passion?” said Christine Jeffords, a pre-school teacher from Hartford, Wis. Jeffords, 52, smiles when she talks about buying her first Presley 45, “Let Yourself Go,” which she bought as a teen with money she had saved from babysitting. She said the vigil is a way to remember not only his career, but also his giving personality and ability to make people happy with his music. “If you were sad or happy or whatever, he was such a big part of your life,” Jeffords said. “I always felt in my heart that he was a good person, a beautiful person.” The vigil started as an informal gathering the year after his death. It has blossomed into a major tourist event. Fans begin lining up along the outer wall of Graceland about 12 hours before the vigil, and many will stay until the early morning hours of the next day.
The event also has become an international affair and a tribute to the Tupelo, Miss., native’s worldwide popularity, hosting fans from Australia, Brazil, England and Japan and other foreign countries. Miguel Salinas Caceres, 53, came with other members of a fan club whose members are from Chile. Making his first visit to Graceland, Salinas Caceres recalled making scrapbooks of newspaper article clippings about Presley when he was a teen. The articles and scrapbooks were a way he and his family followed and learned about Presley because they could not afford a record player or even the records themselves. He said his family used to pay a neighbor who owned a television so that they could watch Presley movies and other TV programs at the neighbors’ house. “For a person who is an Elvis fan and has the chance to come to the place he lived, it’s emotional for me,” said Salinas Caceres, of Santiago, Chile. “It’s hard to believe that I’m here on the street where he walked, the street corners where he stood, the restaurants where he ate.” His fellow fan club member Rodrigo Gandarillas, a native Chilean who now lives in Houston, is on his second visit to Graceland. An Elvis tribute artist himself, the 39-year-old Gandarillas said the vigil is a way to give thanks for the enjoyment Presley has given him. “The thing that impacts me the most about the vigil is the large amount of people from different countries, different races and different languages who understand ‘the King’s’ musical message,” Gandarillas said.
Thicke heads to court over ‘Blurred Lines’ The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Robin Thicke is asking a federal judge to determine his song “Blurred Lines” doesn’t copy from elements of two other songs. Attorneys for Thicke and the song’s collaborators, Pharrell Williams and T.I., filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles on Thursday asking a judge to determine their song does not copy songs composed by Marvin Gaye and George Clinton. “Plaintiffs created a hit and did it without copying anyone else’s compo-
sition,” the lawsuit reads. The suit states representatives of the owners of copyrights to Gaye’s song “Got to Give It Up” and Clinton’s song “Sexy Ways” have warned Thicke that he and his collaborators have used elements of the songs in “Blurred Lines.” “The basis of the Gaye defendants’ claims is that ‘Blurred Lines’ and ‘Got to Give It Up’ ‘feel’ or ‘sound’ the same,” the lawsuit states. “Being reminiscent of a ‘sound’ is not copyright infringement. The intent in pro-
ducing ‘Blurred Lines’ was to evoke an era.” Representatives for Thicke and one of the defendants, Gaye’s son Marvin Gaye III, didn’t immediately reply to emails seeking comment. “Blurred Lines” is spending its 10th week at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. It has sold 4.6 million tracks. The song’s music video features nude models prowling around Thicke, Williams and T.I. It has more than 137 million views and helped propel the song to the top of the charts.
