Corinth man sentenced in DUI death case BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
A Corinth man pleaded guilty to a charge of DUI death stemming from a 2009 crash in the August term of Alcorn County Circuit Court. William M. Lipe Jr., 36, was sentenced to 20 years in custody of the Mississippi Depart-
ment of Corrections with 14 years suspended, leaving six to serve, followed by five years of post-release supervision, according to court records. He was ordered to pay $5,866 to the Mississippi Crime Victims Compensation Fund plus court costs and $500 to the district attorney’s office.
The crash on Sept. 24, 2009, resulted in the death of Misty Joy Barnett Lipe, 31, a passenger in the vehicle driven by William Lipe Jr. The vehicle collided with the back of a stationary City of Corinth brush truck on Proper Street near Pinecrest. According to the Corinth
Police Department accident report, two street department workers were loading brush into the truck on the side of the road when it was struck in the rear by a westbound Kia driven by William Lipe Jr. One of the street department workers was standing in the back of the truck while the oth-
er was handing brush to him. The two suffered minor bruises and scratches. Following the crash, William Lipe Jr. was airlifted to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo and released the following day. The deceased was interred in Tate County.

Iuka Heritage Festival
Jasmine Byrd of Houlka strums a dulcimer on the grounds of the old Tishomingo County Courthouse Saturday morning during Iuka’s Heritage Festival, which drew big crowds to the city. Activities continue today with a battle reenactment at 2 p.m. at a site on Chicken Run Road.
The Alcorn School District found some bright spots and some areas to work on in test data released last week. In the Subject Area Testing Program, which requires students to pass end-of-course exams in order to graduate, the district exceeded the state averages with 87 percent passing Biology, compared to 75 percent for the state; 93 percent passing Algebra, compared to 82 percent for the state; and 77 percent passing the English exam, compared to 73 percent for the state. “Our administration and staff members have already begun to work with the students who will retest in the fall, providing tutorial sessions and additional programs geared toward their individual growth and achievement,” said Superintendent Gina Rogers Smith. On the Mississippi Curriculum Test 2, she believes the new Math in Focus program helped the district see gains. The program aims to boost achievement while engaging students in real-world scenarios to utilize the skills. “As a result of this, our students’ math scores improved across the district,” said Smith. “It will take this type of com-
mitment in all areas of education to help our students meet the diverse and changing needs of our society.” Math scores generally improved across the state. In 2011, fourth-, fifth- and sixthgrade math scores all declined from the previous year. However, the 2012 MCT2 assessments show not only increases in those grades but also scores topping the mark set two years ago, the Department of Education reported. Language Arts scores also increased across each grade with the seventhgrade scores showing the largest increase at six points over the 2011 score. The tests have gotten tougher, and the Alcorn superintendent believes students are responding. With common core standards and a new assessment on the horizon, the district is continuing professional development efforts focusing on best educational practices. “The district has also purchased new textbooks that meet the changing and demanding standards along with programs such as ELS and MAP that will allow us to benchmark assess at certain points throughout the year to ensure our students are meetPlease see SCORES | 3A
Regional unemployment rates top 10 percent in July BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Area unemployment rates topped 10 percent again in July as a seasonal increase in jobseekers continued. Alcorn County’s rate rose from 9.4 percent to 10 percent, ending a brief run below the 10 percent mark. The rate was lower than the year-ago level of 12.9 percent. Prentiss was at 10.3 percent; Tippah, 11.2 percent; and Tishomingo, 11.5 percent, all slight to modest increases according to the latest report
from the Mississippi Department of Employment Security. The unadjusted rates reflect the seasonal summertime influx of students into the labor force. The unadjusted state rate rose from 9.8 percent to 10.1 percent. Alcorn County had 115 initial claims for unemployment insurance during the month and 971 continued claims, down from 145 initial and 1,501 continued a year earlier. Regular benefits paid in the county totaled $132,824, down from $208,112 a year earlier, while
benefits paid in all programs totaled $374,469, down from $474,398 a year earlier. The county had 1,540 unemployed, down from 2,030 in July 2011, and 13,790 employed, up slightly from 13,700 a year earlier. The civilian labor force, which includes those employed or actively seeking employment, totaled 15,330, down from 15,730 a year earlier. Results from Mississippi’s non-farm employment survey, which is counted by the location of establishments, reported a not seasonally ad-
justed employment decrease of 12,500 over the month and 4,600 from one year ago. Industries registering the largest monthly employment losses were the government sector and the leisure & hospitality sector. Rates across the state ranged from 6.1 percent in Rankin County to 18.9 percent in Clay County. Across the country, regional and state unemployment rates were generally little changed or slightly higher in July. Forty-four states recorded unem-
ployment rate increases, two states and the District of Columbia posted rate decreases, and four states had no change, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Forty-four states and the District of Columbia registered unemployment rate decreases from a year earlier, four states experienced increases, and two had no change. The national jobless rate, at 8.3 percent, was essentially unchanged from June but 0.8 percentage point lower than in July 2011.
Eagles’ songs will close out county fair City tax hearing set for Tuesday BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Floyd Austin knows the Eagles when he hears them. Or so he thought. The owner of Big A Auto Sales is sponsoring the “Take it to the Limit” -- an Eagles Tribute Band -- concert at the Crossroads Arena on September 15 at 8 p.m. The concert is the finale for the Alcorn County Fair. “Those guys are just out-
standing,” said Austin. “If you close your eyes, you can’t tell the difference between them and the actual Eagles.” The business owner should know. He has been to a couple of Eagles concert and is a big fan. “I saw them when I was 15 at the Ellis Auditorium in Memphis,” he said. “When I heard them I knew those guys were going to be great.”
“Take it to the Limit” performs four nights a week in Branson, Missouri. Voted Branson’s Group of the Year last season, the band is one of the most popular in the vacation town. “It’s a Branson show so you know it’s going to be good,” said fair committee chairman Chris Porterfield.

Heritage Festival Indian Dancing
Janie Bullard
Two young festival-goers try to hold an object between their faces while participating in American Indian dancing at Iuka’s Heritage Festival on Saturday.
FAIR tickets will be able to get into the rest of the fair events admission free. “If you go to the fair three nights, a concert ticket is going to cost you less than $10,” said Austin. “We wanted the price of tickets low enough for everyone to go.” According to Austin, the band will play 50 minutes before taking an intermission. The group will then return for another 50 minutes of music. “They play a lot of college towns, but they have never been east of the Mississippi River,” added Austin. The group’s show will consist of two monstersize monitors along with a helmet camera. “The guy I am dealing with told me straight out ‘if you get 1,000-1,500 people there for the show and have us back in eight months we will pack the house,’” said the concert sponsor. “They are going
to blow people away.” “Take it to the Limit” is made up of members Jon Sousan (Don Henley), Larry Holiday (Joe Walsh), Drew Webber (Don Felder), Cody Titus, Steve Froese and Paul Purtle. They perform the music of Eagles band members Henley, Walsh, Felder, Glenn Frey, Timothy B. Schmit, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon: songs such as “One of These Nights,” “Life’s Been Good,” “Witchy Woman,” “Hotel California” and many more. “They are a top-notch band with a fantastic sound,” said Austin who stumbled across the group while in Branson. “I can’t explain it, you just have to see it.” Austin is open to sponsoring more shows at the arena. “I want to be a part of building the arena into a good concert place,” he said. “If I break even, I guarantee I will have them back in eight months.”

Alliance membership remains investment The Alliance kicked off its annual membership drive this past week. Alliance members formed teams to engage in some friendly competition to find out which team could recruit more new members. The week-long competition had a goal of welcoming as many new members into the association as possible. These are community volunteers employed in our community or business owners — all reaching out to others in the community to discuss the importance and advantage of being a member of The Alliance. “Membership in the Alliance is something that is mutually beneficial for not only The Alliance, but for the business that sees the value in joining,” Alliance President Gary Chandler said at the kickoff luncheon. “The Alliance helps market all of our member businesses, and in turn, our member businesses are able to help the community advance with their investment in The Alliance.” Every business understands the importance of networking and being a member of The Alliance provides this best opportunity in the Corinth and Alcorn County community. The Alliance serves as our chamber of commerce and economic development arm. Paul Oliver, founder of Chamber of Commerce Consultants and past candidate for lieutenant governor of Mississippi, spoke at the kickoff luncheon. Oliver emphasized the need for chamber of commerce type associations — especially in times of economic woe. “You’re wondering if a membership drive is effective today, with the economy the way it is. It’s going to be more effective,” Oliver said, “because people need your Alliance more than ever.” We agree. If you haven’t been contacted, give The Alliance a call. If you were contacted and still giving membership a thought, follow thru and signup. Being a member of The Alliance is not an expense. It’s an investment in the community.

Job fair gives job seekers a chance to find employment Those in search of a job need to mark the date — Tuesday, Sept. 18. That’s the date to put your best foot forward during the Northeast Mississippi WIN Job Fair. The event, set for 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the Crossroads Arena, is free and open to the public. According to WIN Job Center Case Manager/ Custom Service Coordinator Amanda Johnson, 30 employers have already signed up. This is great opportunity for people to land a job. Job seekers will have a chance to make face-toface contact with employers — something which doesn’t usually happen often during today’s method of online applications. The job fair is part of the Governor’s Job Fair Network — a statewide program created to aid Mississippians in finding safe and secure employment. Job seekers will also have access to the WIN Job Center bus. The bus is equipped with computers that can be used to touch up resumes and search jobs on the extensive Mississippi Department of Employment Securities Job Bank. Those attending the fair should come with a positive attitude and dress as they would for an interview. Job seekers are also advised to bring a resume, make arrangements for child care before the job fair and to be there when the doors open at 9 a.m. Prompt, positive, dressed well, current resume in hand and no excuses to leave early might just be what the employment doctor ordered this year for more people to find employment. Employer registration cost is $150 and more are not only welcome, but are expected to be a part of this year’s job fair. Job seekers can see the list of registered employers by going to jobfairs.ms.gov or call or more information call 662-287-3247. Daily Corinthian

Mississippi’s world food safety, security issues STARKVILLE — It is difficult at times here in the U.S. state with the most significant per capita obesity problem to confront the reality that hunger remains a significant national and global issue. More difficult is making the leap to accepting that food safety and security is not only a humanitarian issue, but one of national and global stability and security. A native Mississippian, Mississippi State University President Mark Keenum understands from both local and global perspective the paradox of how hunger and plenty can and does coexist in close proximity. Before becoming MSU’s chief executive in 2009, Keenum was an undersecretary in the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Before taking the reins at State and continuing into his presidency, Keenum has focused on international food security as both a personal and professional mission. In 2010, MSU established formal ties with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organizations when Keenum signed a memorandum
of understanding to collaborate on issues related to food Sid Salter s a f e t y Columnist and nutrition. “MSU is uniquely positioned to provide research, education and technological assistance in areas as broad as postharvest processing, livestock production, water resources, and biotechnology, among many other capabilities,” said Keenum. “This university’s basic land-grant mission is to teach people to apply knowledge gained from our research to improve their daily lives and we embrace that mission here at home and abroad. From a broader standpoint, Mississippi agribusiness is likewise uniquely positioned to help feed a hungry world.” To that end, MSU will on Sept. 10 host an international food security and safety summit called “Technology Implementation at the Local Level: Food Security for the Future” in the MSU Colvard Student Union. Specific in-
formation is available at www.research.msstate. edu/foodsecurity. Mississippi may be at the bottom of a number of significant national indices, but we are a state that remains a leader in food production. Agricultural products, particularly soybeans and poultry, remain a bedrock of the state’s export business. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Mississippi has 11.4 million acres of farmland worked by some 42,000 farmers and their employees. In Fiscal Year 2010, those operations generated a final agricultural sector output of $5.78 billion. The state’s leading FY 2010 cash crop was poultry at $2.29 billion. Other leading commodities produced in the state include soybeans, corn, cotton and catfish. Soybeans remain the state’s leading agricultural export at $505.7 million, but Mississippi ranks fourth nationally in rice exports, fifth nationally in poultry exports and sixth nationally in cotton exports. Yet with all that food production right here in Mississippi, the U.S. Department of Agriculture in FY 2010 likewise
identified 19.4 percent of Mississippi’s population as living in “food insecure households” and 6.9 percent living in “very low food security households.” However daunting those numbers, they pale in comparison to the rest of the planet. A study of the Global Hunger Index by the International Food Policy Research Institute and others identified a food emergency in East Africa that left millions in peril due to “a perfect storm of severe drought, food price spikes, and conflict” that was worsened by the endemic poverty of the region. In the current global economy, food and energy are emerging as factors the impact international strategic security in great measure with the same impact as weaponry. Moreover, in some cultures, food has become a weapon. Because of those facts, net food producing states like Mississippi will have increasing influence over these issues.

Explaining the fear of entitlement reforms For those of us who like to believe that human beings are rational, trying to explain what happens in politics can be a real challenge. For example, that segment of the population that has the least to fear from a reform of Medicare or Social Security is the most fearful — namely, those receiving Medicare or Social Security benefits. It is understandable that people heavily dependent on these programs would fear losing their benefits, especially after a lifetime of paying into these programs. But nobody in his right mind has proposed taking away the benefits of those who are already receiving them. Yet opponents of reforming these programs have scared seniors with wild claims and television ads such as one showing someone — who looks somewhat like Paul Ryan — pushing an elderly lady in a wheelchair toward a cliff and then dumping her over. There are people who take seriously such statements as those by President Barack Obama that Republicans want to “end Medicare as we know it.”

If you make any change in anything, you are ending it “as we Thomas know it.” Sowell Does that m e a n Hoover Institution that everything in the status quo should be considered to be set in concrete forever? If there were not a single Republican, or none who got elected to any office, arithmetic would still end “Medicare as we know it,” for the simple reason that the money in the till is not enough to keep paying for it. The same is true of Social Security. The same also has been true of welfare state programs in European countries that are struggling with both financial crises and riots in the streets from people who feel betrayed by their governments. They have in fact been betrayed by their politicians, who promised them things that there was not enough money to pay for. That is the basic problem in the United States as well. The only question is whether we will use that time to make polit-
ically difficult changes or whether we will just kick the can down the road, and keep pretending that “Medicare as we know it” would continue on indefinitely, if it were not for people who just want to be mean to the elderly. In both Europe and America, there are many people who get angry at those who tell them the truth that the money is just not there to sustain huge welfare state programs indefinitely. But that anger might be better directed at those who lied to them by promising them benefits that were unsustainable. Neither Social Security nor Medicare has ever had enough assets to cover its liabilities. There has never been enough money put aside to do what the government promised to do. These systems operate on what their advocates like to call a “pay as you go” basis. That is, the younger generation pays in money that is used to cover the cost of benefits for the older generation. This is the kind of financial pyramid scheme that put Charles Ponzi in prison in the 1920s and Bernie Madoff in prison in our times. A private annuity can-

not play these financial games without its executives risking the fate of Ponzi and Madoff. That is why proposed Social Security and Medicare reforms would allow young people to put their money somewhere where the money they pay in would be put aside specifically for them, not used as at present to pay older people’s pensions, with anything left over being used for whatever else politicians feel like spending the money on. It is today’s young people who are going to be left holding the bag when they reach retirement age and discover that the money they paid is long gone. Today’s young people are going to be dumped over a cliff when they reach retirement age, if nothing is done to reform entitlements. Yet the young seem not to be as alarmed as the elderly, who have no real reason to fear. Try reconciling that with the belief that human beings are rational.

Flooding main concern as recovery starts Associated Press
GULFPORT — Isaac is gone and now the focus turns to cleanup with an eye to rising rivers in south Mississippi. In Jackson County, Emergency Management Director Donald Langham said local officials will being documenting Isaac's damage. “We have quite a bit that has to be done in terms of reports and assessments,” Langham said. He said county departments will be out in force to assess residential, business and infrastructure damages. Learning the extent of and documenting flood and wind damages is an essential part of setting
up the county and its residents for federal assistance, if any funds are made available, he said. The assessments process will ramp up next week, Langham said, as workers photograph damages, make reports and measure water lines. The National Guard was still being staged in the Helena area to assist with calls. “The rain forecast looks like we could expect 2.5 more inches through the weekend,” Langham said. “We're looking at strictly river flooding from now on.” The Pascagoula and Escatawpa rivers continued to rise Saturday with more flooding in the forecast over the next few
days, according to the National Weather Service. Flood warnings remained in effect through the weekend. One area of concern was the Escatawpa River above the Orange Grove community. At 10:30 p.m. on Friday, the stage was at 10.9 feet and the flood stage is 8 feet. The Escatawpa Rivers is expected to crest Sunday evening at 11.5 feet, then begin falling. The Pascagoula River is forecast to crest at 24.5 feet on Monday evening, 2.5 feet above flood stage. These forecast are based on rain that has fallen and will be adjusted should more rain fall. “As that water travels downstream, it'll spread
out into tributaries and streams. There probably won't be a noticeable difference to anyone, and if it is, it'll be a matter of inches,” Langham said. In Harrison County, people sipped coffee at outdoor cafes and jogged along the beach as boats passed, leaving the safe harbor of the Back Bay and rivers and heading out into the Mississippi Sound. Walkers were back on the Biloxi Bay Bridge. All of Biloxi's casinos had reopened by Friday. Crews have sand and debris to clear off U.S. Highway 90 and motorists are asked to stay off the highway and let them get the work done. About half of the 200
evacuees stationed at the Mississippi Coliseum in Jackson left Friday. Families were coming and going, shelter volunteers said. Roneika Small, 27, and 25 relatives packed their cars and headed home to St. John Parish in Louisiana. “My house is under water,” said Small. Her family drove to Jackson after her father was rescued from his home as it was flooding. “We're going to Jefferson Parish to be with family,” she said. The coliseum and New Horizon Church Family Life Center were two of 31 American Red Cross shelters in south and central Mississippi, and two

other shelters are open in Jackson and Clinton. Calvin Turner from LaPlace, La., was ready to leave the coliseum Friday. “There had never been flooding in LaPlace before, so we decided we had to run. The house is flooded, a lot of homes are under water,” he said. In Hancock County, one of the most severely affected areas on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, the slow movement of Isaac pushed water into residential areas, bringing floodwaters into areas that were not expected to be affected, officials said. Cleanup is now the focus, Coast Guard Petty Officer Andrew Murphy said.

Fake coyotes used to scare geese at beach Associated Press
HOWELL, Mich. — A Michigan community that's fed up with geese fouling up a beach is hoping fake coyotes encourage the birds to land elsewhere. The Livingston County
Daily Press & Argus of Howell and WHMI-FM report that the beach on Thompson Lake at Howell City Park is expected to be closed for the rest of the summer swimming season because of elevated E. coli levels. The beach was
shut down this month and goose poop is blamed. Debbie Mikula is director of the Howell Area Parks and Recreation Authority. She says the fake coyotes have shown some success in keeping the birds away.

Security rules trigger free speech worries CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Starting Saturday, someone walking through Charlotte’s central business district could run afoul of the law by carrying water bottles, hair spray, socks or magic markers under sweeping security rules enacted ahead of the Democratic National Convention. It would take a particularly strict reading of the rules for someone to be arrested simply for possessing one of those items, but the possibility exists — which worries protesters and free speech advocates. They fear authorities could trample on people’s constitutional rights in the name of protecting public safety. The changes to city ordinances adopted earlier this year for “extraordinary events” ban a long list of actions and items that would otherwise be legal from a more than 100-square-block zone. The area includes spots as much as a mile from the sports venues where the Democratic Party events are to be held. The new rules have already been used for events before the convention and will remain on the books after it’s over. The special rules that went into effect at 12:01 a.m. Saturday could also bar anyone other than government employees from carrying handbags and backpacks or possessing soda cans, drink coolers, scarves, bike helmets, baby strollers or pets not specifically permitted as service animals. A section banning “a container or object of sufficient weight to be used as a projectile” could be interpreted to include almost anything, from an apple to an iPhone. Those caught violating any of these prohibitions could be subject to arrest and jail.
Similar prohibitions have been in place at past conventions, especially those following the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Outside the Republican National Convention in 2004, New York City police carried out mass arrests, detaining hundreds of people for days in miserable conditions on a Hudson River pier. Most of those charges were later dropped or thrown out, triggering dozens of lawsuits against the city.
Ex-Marine tweeted about killing co-workers OLD BRIDGE, N.J. — Unhappy with his life as a Marine stationed in California, Terence Tyler posed a question three years ago on Twitter: “is it normal to want to kill ALL of ur coworkers?” Struggling with depression, he left the Marines and recently started working at a supermarket in New Jersey. On Friday morning, Tyler shot two co-workers and himself, police said. The 23-year-old, clad in desert camouflage gear, opened fire at a Pathmark store in Old Bridge Township, authorities said. Authorities are investigating his motive, but family members said Tyler was discharged from the Marines two years ago after suffering from depression and had never gotten over his mother’s death about five years ago. Authorities said Tyler left his job as an overnight clerk at the Pathmark about 3:30 a.m. He drove off and returned to the store shortly afterward with a handgun and an assault rifle, Middlesex County Prosecutor Bruce Kaplan said. About a dozen workers were in the closed store, putting new prices into a computer. Tyler fired more than 16 rounds from his rifle — shooting at an employee standing outside and blowing out windows, authori-
ties said. He shot at five other workers in an aisle, killing Christina LoBrutto, 18, and Bryan Breen, 24, the prosecutor said. Tyler, who began working at the supermarket less than two weeks ago, then drew his handgun and killed himself, Kaplan said. Several ammunition magazines were recovered along with the rifle and a .45-caliber handgun, he said. “I do not believe that they were specifically targeted,” Kaplan said of the two victims. “I believe everybody in the store was a target.” John Niccollai, president of a foodworkers union, said many of the employees escaped harm when an assistant manager directed them toward a back door.
Couple found dead in flooded area BRAITHWAITE, La. — Authorities say the bodies of a man and a woman have been found in a home in the flood-ravaged Louisiana community of Braithwaite. Billy Nungesser, president of Plaquemine Parish, said deputies went out to search for the couple Thursday evening after someone reported they had apparently not escaped Braithwaite’s flooding after Hurricane Isaac pummeled the Gulf Coast. Isaac’s death toll is now at least seven — five in Louisiana and two in Mississippi. It includes a 75-year-old Slidell, La., man who drowned after his SUV fell from a flooded highway up-ramp into 9 feet of water Thursday evening. Mississippi authorities have confirmed that the death Thursday of a 62-year-old woman whose car was hit by a tree has also been attributed to Isaac. Dozens were rescued from homes in Braithwaite after Isaac’s storm surge swamped it earlier this week.

BY JIM SALTER Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Carol DeVaughan assumed her suburban St. Louis home was simply settling when cracks appeared in the walls. When she noticed huge gaps between her fireplace and ceiling, and that her family room was starting to tilt, she knew she had bigger problems. Like thousands of other Americans getting stuck with huge repair bills, DeVaughan learned that the intense drought baking much of the country's lawns, fields and forests this summer has also been sucking the moisture from underground, causing shifting that can lead to cracked basements and foundations, as well as damage aboveground. Repairs often cost tens of thousands of dollars and can even top $100,000, and they are rarely covered by insurance, as shocked homeowners have been discovering. DeVaughan, a retired Presbyterian minister, said she expects it will cost more than $25,000 to fix the split-level home in Manchester, Mo., where she's lived for 27 years. “I had retired,� said DeVaughan, 70, who has stayed busy filling in at the pulpit for vacationing pastors. “I guess I'll keep working.� Home repair businesses, especially those specializing in repairs to basements and foundations, can barely keep up with demand. Droughtrelated home damage is reported in 40 of the 48 contiguous states, and
experts say damage to homes could exceed $1 billion. Dan Jaggers, a board member of the Basement Health Association, a Dayton, Ohio-based trade group for basement and foundation repair businesses, said this year's drought is probably the worst for homes since the late 1950s. Houses in the central U.S. — from Louisiana up through the Dakotas — are getting the worst of it, but significant damage is being reported in all across the country, he said. “It's not only basements but crawl spaces and slabs,� Jaggers said. “Wherever the soil is interacting with the foundations.� The lack of moisture in the ground has been causing the soil to crack open and pull away from homes' concrete bases. “It's very common right now to walk around the outside of somebody's home and see gaps in the soil wide enough to put your fist in,� said Jason Courtney of the St. Louisarea repair firm Helitech. All of the movement from the shifting soil can cause cracks in the basement walls or floor. But the damage doesn't necessarily stop there. “When the foundations move they cause structural damage that can lead to problems above the ground,� said Matt Stock, owner of U.S. Waterproofing in the Chicago area. “Windows don't open properly. You can get large cracks in the foundation wall, cracks in brick work and mortar, cracks in drywall.�

Diet Pepsi formula gets a sweetener tweak BY CANDICE CHOI Associated Press
NEW YORK — Diet Pepsi is tweaking its formula to stay sweet a little longer. PepsiCo Inc. is testing new artificial sweeteners that let the soda keep its taste for a longer period of time. The problem is that the current sweetener used in the soda — aspartame — loses its potency faster than high fructose corn syrup, the sweetener that's used in most regular sodas. A person with knowledge of the situation says
the company had considered importing versions of Diet Pepsi sold in other countries to the U.S. But now it's testing other sweetener mixes, with a new version set to come out as soon as next year. The new version will use the same formula that creates Diet Pepsi's overall taste, according to the person, who requested anonymity because she wasn't authorized to speak publicly. But it will use a mix of artificial sweeteners, including acesulfamepotassium, or ace-K, that has a longer shelf life.

Meeks garners first career win BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
WALNUT — Walnut rallied from an early deficit to give John Meeks — a former Wildcat player and 10-year assistant — his first career win. The Wildcats (1-2) scored three straight touchdowns over an 11:29 span of the first half to edge Alcorn Central 21-14 on Friday. Walnut opened the season with losses to Booneville and Tippah County rival Falkner. Central entered on the heels of a 72-6 loss to Tishomingo County after it beat rival Biggersville in the season opener. Alcorn Central (1-2) jumped out to a 6-0 lead just over three minutes into the game on an 8-yard run by Ethan Spears. The Bears would be held at bay until late in the third quarter. Walnut responded with a 1-yard run by Shawn Thornton with 1:41 left in the opening frame. Kylan Crum’s kick gave the Wildcats the lead for good at 7-6.

Kossuth gets back into win column BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
HAMILTON — Kossuth got it together on both sides of the ball and got back into the win column on Friday. The Aggies rolled up over 400 yards of offense and allowed just one second-half touchdown in beating Hamilton 35-27 in their first true road trip of the season. Kossuth (1-2) ended a three-game slide that had carried over from a schoolrecord 12-win campaign last season.
“It was a really good effort,” said second-year head coach Brian Kelly. “We played hard and had a little excitement in us ... a different team from the last two weeks.” Hamilton (1-2) took a 2016 lead at the break. Kossuth opened the third quarter with 19 unanswered points on runs by Denzel Miller, Weston Bobo and a pick-six by Devin Sowell. Miller had some 200 yards and two scores from scrimmage, and had two other touchdowns called back.
“Denzel went straight down the highway, he didn’t take the by-pass,” Kelly said of the senior tailback. “We probably had 125 yards passing too, I was proud of Bobo.” Miller and Jordan Elam had scoring runs in the first half. Sowell and Miller added two-point conversions to give Kossuth a 16-14 lead. Kossuth had managed just 13 points, including one offensive touchdown, and 178 yards of offense in losses to Baldwyn and Corinth.
Hamilton took a 20-14 lead into the break. They wouldn’t get back into the end zone until early in the fourth quarter after Kossuth had hung 19 straight points. “The defense started playing,” Kelly said of the secondhalf effort. “Sometimes it felt like last year’s team was out there. It was a totally different effort overall.” Kossuth plays host to Tishomingo County on Friday. The Braves will come in at 2-1 after edging rival Belmont 2321 in Week Three.

Copiah-Lincoln tops Northeast BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
BOONEVILLE — Copiah-Lincoln gashed Northeast for 437 yards and five scores, beating the Tigers 3314 Saturday afternoon in the season opener for both teams. The game was originally set for Thursday at Tiger Stadium, but was pushed back due to Hurricane Isaac. The Wildcats (1-0) continued their dominance in the series. Co-Lin improved its mark to 17-5 against NE and has now won 14 of the last 15 meetings since 1981. Northeast (0-1) broke on top early on a 2-yard run by Jay Jones. Chris Cooper’s PAT capped a four-play, 35yard drive that gave the Tigers a 7-0 lead just 3:04 into the new season. Co-Lin scored the next 20 points, including two scoring runs by Darius Guy. A 46-yard pass from Chandler Rogers to Darren Anderson upped the advantage to 20-7 with 6:50 left in the third quarter.

Bears with 52 yards on 13 carries. Freeze came to Ole Miss promising a wide-open, uptempo offense and the Rebels delivered early on a muggy night at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Wallace completed his first two passes and then rushed for a 25-yard touchdown on the first drive to give Ole Miss an early 7-0 lead. But offense wasn’t the problem for the Rebels in the first half. Defense was. Central Arkansas, which plays at the Football Championship Subdivision level, moved the ball with stunning
ease on the ground and in the air early in the game. Smothers — making just his second career start — completed 11 of 13 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown in the first half, and the Bears outgained the Rebels 237-231. The difficult game brought back memories of one of the biggest disasters in Ole Miss football history — a 49-48 double overtime loss to Jacksonville State in 2010. That was the first loss to an FCS team in program history. Thanks largely to Wallace, Please see UCA | 9A

deep Bulldog defense. On the game’s opening drive, Mississippi State moved quickly down the field before Tyler Russell hit Chad Bumphis for a 9-yard touchdown pass.

it’s still the only one. Wallace led the Rebels on touchdown drives of 74 and 75 yards in the third quarter to push Ole Miss ahead 28-20. The second touchdown was the 53-yard pass that hit Moncrief in stride — and the Rebels hope that connection will be announced often this season.

34 and 8 yards, the latter pushing the advantage to 21-0 with 5:45 left in the half. Central would tally the lone points of the second half on a 2-yard run by Josh Berry. Luke Kiddy, who had 146 yards on 18 carries, added the two-point conversion. Walnut totaled 280 yards on 63 plays. The Wildcats netted 244 yards on the ground and were 4-of-16 passing for 36 yards. Central had 219 yards on 49 plays. The Bears carried 38 times for 202 yards and had 17 yards trough the air on a 1-of-11 showing. Both clubs will be on the road Friday. Alcorn Central travels to Mooreville, while Walnut crosses over the state line to battle Middleton, Tenn.

The second half was a battle of field goals before Tajh Boyd lofted a 4-yard touchdown pass to Hopkins, who made a brilliant, twisting catch in the corner of the end zone with 9:17 remaining. Ellington broke off a couple of long runs to set up a chip-shot field goal with just over a minute remaining for the final margin. Auburn got the ball back one more time, but with only one timeout. The Southeastern Conference team didn’t even get it across midfield, the game ending on a desperate heave by new quarterback Kiehl Frazier. The 5-foot-10 Ellington scooted around and through the Auburn defense on 26 carries, the longest of them resulting in a 68-yard gain. Hopkins finished with 119 yards receiver. Boyd did his part, too, completing 24 of 34 for 208 yards and carrying the ball 19 times for 58 yards. Frazier had an early 54-yard touchdown pass to Emory Blake, hitting the receiver in stride to put Auburn ahead 7-3 late in the first quarter. The sophomore, who beat out last year’s starter, Clint Mosey, for the job in fall camp, showed plenty of potential but is still a work in progress. Frazier passed for 194 yards despite completing just 11 of 27.
Tre Mason led Auburn in rushing with 107 yards. Both teams kicked four field goals. Cody Parkey connected from 37, 46, 27 and 36 yards for Auburn, the last of them putting his team ahead with 12;50 remaining. Chandler Catanzaro was just as accurate for Clemson, booting it through from 24, 40, 37 and 18 yards.
No. 3 LSU 41, North Texas 14 Kenny Hilliard rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns, and No. 3 LSU opened its season with a victory Saturday night. While the heavily favored Tigers were never threatened, their performance did not always thrill a Death Valley crowd that eagerly anticipated the debut of Zach Mettenberger as starting quarterback. Mettenberger, who was briefly sidelined by a vicious sack, was 19 of 26 for 192 yards, an interception and a touchdown. But LSU didn’t really need to throw in a game decided by its overwhelming defense and a running game that accounted for 316 yards, including 123 by Alfred Blue. Derek Thompson completed only 8 of 21 passes, but two passes were scoring strikes of 80 and 15 yards to Brelan Chancellor.
No. 6 Georgia 45, Buffalo 23 Freshman Todd Gurley ran for three touchdowns, Aaron Murray threw three scoring passes and Georgia overcame a sloppy first half. Gurley didn’t start but may have emerged as the Bulldogs’ future at tailback with his eight carries for 100 yards, including scoring runs of 10 and 55 yards. He added a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the first quarter. Georgia, favored by 371⁄2 points, led only 24-16 at halftime before pulling away in the season opener for both teams. Branden Oliver, coming off his school-record 1,395 yards rushing in 2011, had 30 carries for 111 yards and a 2-yard touchdown run for the Bulls.
No. 10 Arkansas 49, Jacksonville St. 24 Tyler Wilson set the school record for yards passing in a season opener, finishing 19 of 27 passing for 367 yards and three touchdowns to lead Arkansas. Two of Wilson’s touchdowns went to tight end Chris Gragg, who finished with seven catches for 110 yards as the No. 10 Razorbacks (1-0) won their first game under

halftime, its largest first-half output since a 35-6 first half against Alcorn State in 2010. The Bulldogs returned two Dedric McDonald interceptions for touchdowns. Darius Slay returned one for 52 yards in the first half, and sophomore Matthew Wells ran from 22 yards
out in the third quarter. Mississippi State had returned two balls for scores only three other times in school history (2009 vs. Florida, 2002 vs. Memphis, and 1994 vs. Arkansas). McDonald finished the game 14 of 27 for 136 yards and one touchdown. Mississippi State’s Derrick Milton led all rushers with 65 yards
on eight carries and one touchdown. Receivers Arceto Clark and Jameon Lewis had three catches each to lead the Bulldogs. Jackson State’s Rico Richardson caught a game-high seven passes, and E.J. Drewery caught a 9-yard pass in the second quarter for the Tigers’ lone touchdown of the game.

No. 23 Florida 27, Bowling Green 14 Mike Gillislee had a career-high 148 yards rushing and two touchdowns, helping Florida beat Bowling Green. The performance was far from perfect for the Gators, who struggled part of the game on offense and failed to generate much pressure on defense. Still, it was enough for Florida to win its 23rd consecutive opener. The streak is the second longest in the nation behind Nebraska (27). The Gators can thank Gillislee, Frankie Hammond and two missed field goals for the latest one. Gillislee scored on runs of 15 and 38 yards in the second quarter. Hammond turned a short pass into a 50yard score early in the
fourth. Bowling Green could have had a second-half lead, but fifthyear senior Stephen Stein missed field-goal attempts of 31 and 29 yards.
Missouri 62, SE Louisiana 10 Marcus Murphy scored on punt returns of 72 and 70 yards and Zaviar Gooden and Michael Sam fueled a lightning-fast start with early defensive touchdowns in Missouri’s season-opening rout. Kendial Lawrence ran for a 76-yard TD and totaled 121 yards on 10 carries with two touchdowns for the Tigers, who led 28-0 after running just 12 plays in their tuneup for next week’s SEC debut against No. 6 Georgia. They then stalled for nearly two quarters before turning it back on. Murphy, a 5-foot9, 185-pound sophomore tailback, matched a 47-year-old school record with two scoring returns and totaled 180 yards on five punt returns. He added 32 yards on five carries. Nathan Stanley threw a late 21-yard touchdown pass to Jeff Smiley for Southeastern Louisiana, which since resuming football in 2003 is just 8-45 on the road, including 13 consecutive losses.

We are excited to announce the opening of Southern Aesthetics
Southern Aesthetics is Corinth’s first and only Noninvasive cosmetic surgery center. Southern Aesthetics is a new state-of-theart noninvasive aesthetics practice backed by the latest in medical science and technology, which provides a safe and very effective alternative to the risks and results associated with conventional cosmetic surgical procedures. We hope to offer an affordable and effective alternative to those looking to improve confidence and self-esteem.
Our Procedures currently include: - During this procedure, high-intensity focused ultrasound energy is used to target and permanently destroy stubborn fat cells beneath the surface layers of the skin. The treated fat tissue is removed through the body’s natural healing and elimination process, leaving you with a thinner, more contoured figure. Liposonix is noninvasive so there’s no downtime and can safely and effectively be performed on any part of the body such as the abdomen, buttocks, back, thighs, and hips. The procedure lasts only 45 minutes to an hour and you may resume normal activity immediately following treatment. Within eight weeks of first treatment most patients experience the reduction of body at up to one full dress/pant size or more. And the treatment may be safely repeated every 10 weeks until your desired goal has been achieved. Southern Aesthetics is proud to have Mississippi’s first Liposonix machine as seen on Dr. Oz, 20/20, The View & The Doctors. - This noninvasive surgical procedure is typically reserved for men and women who have experienced weight loss resulting in sagging, dimpling or puckering skin, or wrinkling as the result of the natural process of aging. The Thermage represents the first pioneered radio frequency skin tightening technology that uses radio frequency (RF) energy to kick start the body’s on natural renewal process. Tightening and contouring can happen for up to six months as your body forms new, tighter stronger collagen. It’s a great procedure to tone and tighten the excess skin and wrinkles that are often associated with the reduction of body fat following Liposonix. However, Thermage is safe and very effective anywhere on the body including face, eyes and neck where wrinkles and loose skin are often apparent. - No matter how old you are, sun exposure, environmental conditions and lifestyle can contribute to lackluster skin. Whether you want to extend the younger look of your skin or even need to reverse these early signs of aging, Clear+Brilliant is a gentle laser that refreshes your skin from the inside out. The laser energy creates millions of microscopic treatment zones in your skin, replacing damaged skin with healthy, younger looking tissue.

Ghosts of the state line still linger BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
You can feel it heading north out of Corinth on the old highway. When you pass by the Henry Cemetery, with the history of the old railroad town written in marble and staring patiently out at you, the past doesn’t seem too far past. And even if the Mississippi and Tennessee state line has settled down these days like they say it has, I swear you can still feel its uneasy spirit lingering around the old haunts, daring the truth to rise up through the years. There’s nothing much there now but some blacktop and a little bit of faded floor-tile. Even less remains of most of the other dives. One of the final survivors still stands across the line in Tennessee with boarded windows bearing spraypainted warnings to trespassers. In the edge of Alcorn the woods have crept back over a stretch of earth where a hot midsouth sun once shone down on a sparkling swimming pool. Who knows what stories the old foundation could tell? How many steps toward damnation were
It was the place to be for quite a few years. Even Lee Harvey Oswald supposedly showed up at one time or another. A whole lot of people who should have known better took their chances on the line in spite of the stories. taken around these few acres? It was the place to be for quite a few years. Even Lee Harvey Oswald supposedly showed up at one time or another. A whole lot of people who should have known better took their chances on the line in spite of the stories. There is no shortage of stories. Not then and not now. But the ones who saw it with their eyes are becoming more scarce every day. Time keeps marching, marching. What was it about the place? Why here? Was it because neither Nashville nor Jackson felt particularly close about either side? When they started writing books about it they called them a mob, but from this distance of years it appears the serious ones never numbered more than a dozen. They were homegrown Corinth boys and girls. They were country
boys coming out of hard times in the Delta. They knew just as well as the worst of us that money makes this world go ‘round. With enough money moving around people seem to be able to tolerate a lot of bad behavior. They say this place was like the Wild West for decades. There were wild nights with homebrew and new cars. Sweet-voiced little Southern accented beauties laughing with a cool summer wind coming through open windows.
They were young back then and I’m sure they had some good times. Nobody’s saying it was all one big hoot, though. No, ma’am. There was greed, envy, murder, betrayal, lies and all manner of crime and punishment. They were too busy working in all the other sins to waste time on sloth. Let us not forget either that they were not lepers. The finest citizens of Corinth carried their caskets when death came. Outlaws have always been popular.
So where does that leave us now? Did the forces of straightness and order wage a noble campaign until the evildoers fled? Was the line between the two clear more often than not? Maybe all that stuff is in the past. Maybe we’re different people than we were then. But I can’t help feeling like that wildness just has to flare up in certain places and certain times. People are the same as they’ve always been. Up on the state line now there is nothing that would suggest the area’s crazy days. The peaceful fields roll over the hills with clusters of trees following little creeks in the low places. Semi trucks park on a rough blacktop slab barely in sight of an old metal sign sticking out of the woods, lucky
indeed, with the green leaves thick on the trees giving shade like jungle canopy. It could be any strip of highway in the region. One car and three motorcycles wait in the sun outside a metal building with signs advertising discount beer. The past is gone. The game continues. But if you’re a big enough dreamer — or maybe it’s crazy enough — you can roll the windows down heading back into Corinth and feel in the breeze the same wind that drove those old timers to this place way back then and made it what it was, a spot of time and place that some take delight in and others feel shame for, but whatever else the line is, it’s a place that will intrigue and confound some of us for the rest of our lives.
Prosecutors will decide on retrial Associated Press
HERNANDO, Miss. — The trial of a Walls man accused of shooting a 16-year-old outside the Southaven Performing Arts Center in 2008 has ended in a hung jury for the second time. The jury told Circuit Robert Chamberlin late Tuesday that members were deadlocked. Chamberlin scheduled a retrial of the case for Nov. 5, at which time prosecutors will have to decide whether they will seek to retry the manslaughter case against Justin Thomas, who remains free on a $35,000 bond. Thomas was indicted in the shooting death of Dexter Harris, a junior at Whitehaven High School in Memphis, after Thomas allegedly shot into a mob after a spring break party
at the Performing Arts Center. Thomas was convicted of manslaughter in his trial in 2009 and sentenced to 15 years. The conviction was overturned by state Court of Appeals, which ruled the trial judge failed to tell jurors whether Thomas' actions during the incident were protected by the Castle Doctrine law. Mississippi's so-called “castle doctrine” law removes the requirement that residents must first seek a safe retreat from an intruder before using deadly force. A second trial this past April ended with a hung jury. The court record shows a fight had started outside the arts center and Thomas allegedly fired shots into the air to stop it.

With war comes death and during the Civil War it came to Corinth in a number of forms. The hundreds of grisly battlefield deaths by bullets and cannonballs were overshadowed by the thousands who succumbed to disease. There were fatal accidents, an execution and even a guy struck by lightning. There was also a murder. I’m not talking about a battlefield encounter between two soldiers or an atrocity against some poor resident. No, this was murder most foul and both men were wearing the same color uniform. Col. Francis Cornyn was the commander of the 10th Missouri Cavalry and his regiment was part of the Union occupation force at Corinth. Cornyn had started the war as a surgeon, but found he had a knack for fighting. He served with an artillery unit at Shiloh and then was given command of a brand new cavalry regiment. His promotion caused some bad blood with Lt. Col. William Bowen, who felt he should be the leader of the regiment. Bowen had been in command of the cavalry battalion that had formed the nucleus of the 10th Missouri, and it was only fitting he should be in charge. But Bowen had a spotty reputation from his service in Missouri, where his men were quite skilled in stealing cotton and he profited by selling it to cotton brokers up north. In the spring of 1863, the regiment was frequently sent on raids into Alabama and made life tough for the folks in Tuscumbia and Muscle Shoals. Several cotton mills were burned and they were involved in a pretty heavy skirmish right through downtown Florence. Under Cornyn’s orders, the troopers sacked the LaGrange Academy (eventually the University of North Alabama) and burned it along with a library of 4,000 volumes. The order was carried out with gusto by the “Destroying Angels” of the
The Moss House Hotel was used as the Provost Marshal’s office. This building stood at the site of the current Downtown Carwash.
Col. Francis Cornyn, commander of the 10th Missouri Cavalry, was killed by a fellow Union officer. 10th Missouri. When the regiment returned to Corinth, Bowen saw an opportunity to rid himself of his competition and preferred charges against his colonel for exceeding his orders in the destruction and looting in Alabama. It was rather ironic that Bowen -- who
practically wrote the book on depredations -- would accuse his boss of such activities. But Cornyn was no choir boy and had a reputation for having little regard for the rights of Southerners. In August of 1863, Cornyn was brought before a court martial con-
vened in a Corinth home. Witnesses were called and testimony was given, and it looked pretty good for the defendant until Aug. 10th, when Lt. Col. Bowen was called to the stand. Bowen’s account painted a poor picture of his commander, and at one point Cornyn jumped to his feet and shouted, “You lie!” As he was led from the courtroom into the hall, he called out he would “impeach that man’s testimony.” The trial was halted while the officers of the court discussed some legal aspect of the case. Cornyn was waiting in the “ante-room” of the house, a parlor pressed into service as a waiting room. He had calmed down and was humming a tune and smoking a cigar when Bowen entered and a confrontation ensued. Harsh words and accusations flew back and forth, both men were hot under the collar and they began shouting. Cornyn had enough and punched Bowen squarely in the face. The two grappled together and there was plenty of beard pulling and eye gouging. There were several other men in the room and the two assailants were pulled apart. Bowen, still in a rage, went for his pistol and Cornyn, slower on the draw, tried to draw his as
well. An officer yelled out, “For God’s sake, Colonel, don’t shoot here!” Cornyn was an easy target, only a few feet away and still held by one of the officers who had pulled them apart. Bowen yanked his revolver from its holster and the first shot exploded from the barrel and went right through the wooden floor. He cocked the pistol and took another try. The second round, as well as the third and fourth, found the target: Cornyn was hit in the belly, hip and pelvis areas. In a moment, the room became a madhouse. Men rushed out both doors and at least one dove head first through the window. Cornyn was still on his feet and managed to stagger into the courtroom before collapsing. Bowen followed him in with the smoking pistol still in his hand. Col. John Wilcox of the 52nd Illinois Infantry shouted “Bowen!” and the attacker looked up, backed away and explained, “He struck me, Gentlemen, he struck me.” Cornyn lay on the floor, still conscious but fading fast. An officer of the court knelt over the stricken man and asked him where he was wounded. “I am shot all over, sir,” he replied, and within five minutes, he was gone. It was later determined that any one of
the three gunshot wounds would have been fatal. Bowen may have felt justified in the shooting, but he knew he had killed a man and would soon be arrested. Rather than wait for the arresting officers, he walked down the street to the provost marshal’s office and turned himself in. He was later tried for the killing and was acquitted, but his career as a cavalry officer was over. When Gen. Grant learned of the not guilty verdict by the court martial, he had Bowen thrown out of the army. The power struggle for command of the regiment resulted in one man dead and another cashiered, which left an opening to be filled. The promotion was given to Frederick Benteen, the senior major of the regiment. If you history buffs are trying to remember where you heard the name Benteen, think of the fight on the Little Big Horn. Capt. Benteen commanded one of the battalions of the 7th Cavalry, and though he was later criticized for not coming to Gen. George Armstrong Custer’s aid, he managed to fend off numerous attacks and save his men from annihilation.

For Mississippi, an angst-filled Civil War anniversary BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Civil War can be an angst-filled task in Mississippi, with its long history of racial strife and a state flag that still bears the Confederate battle emblem. Well-intentioned Mississippians who work for racial reconciliation say slavery was morally indefensible. Still, some speak in hushed tones as they confess a certain admiration for the valor of Confederate troops who fought for what was, to them, the hallowed ground of home and country. “Mississippi has such a troubled past that a lot of people are very sensitive about commemorating or recognizing or remembering the Civil War because it has such an unpleasant reference for African-Americans,” said David Sansing, who is white and a professor emeritus of history at the University of Mississippi. “Many Mississippians are reluctant to go back there because they don’t want to remind themselves or the AfricanAmerican people about our sordid past,” said
Sansing. “But it is our past.” Black Mississippians express pride that some ancestors were Union soldiers who fought to end slavery, though it took more than a century for the U.S. to dismantle state-sanctioned segregation and guarantee voting rights. Sansing was among dignitaries who traveled recently to Antietam National Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Md., this weekend to dedicate a blue-gray granite marker commemorating the 11th Mississippi Infantry, which saw 119 members killed, wounded or missing in battle there on Sept. 16-17, 1862. The infantry had almost 1,000 soldiers, including a unit of University of Mississippi students known as the University Greys. Among the speakers there was Bertram HayesDavis, great-great grandson of Confederate president Jefferson Davis. He was recently hired as executive director of Beauvoir, the white-columned Biloxi mansion that was the final home of his ancestor, a Mississippi native. The state is taking a decidedly low-key and scholarly approach to
“One thing I’m particularly proud of is that black men who were poorly or sometimes not trained at all took up arms to fight for their own freedom and the freedom of their loved ones.” Robert M. Walker Former Vicksburg mayor commemorating the sesquicentennial of the Civil War. Reenactments have taken place at Brice’s Crossroads and are planned today in Iuka. Farmington’s reenactment is next on Sept.15 -16 and will also serve as the Battle of Corinth Reenactment. Lectures, concerts and other gatherings are scheduled over the next several months. Several events are expected in 2013 to mark the 1863 siege of Vicksburg, which gave the Union control of the Mississippi River. Mississippi is the last state with a flag that includes the Confederate battle emblem, a red field topped by a blue X with 13 white stars. The symbol has been on the state flag since 1894. In a 2001 statewide election, voters decided nearly 2-to-1 to keep it, despite arguments it was racially di-
visive and tarnishing the state’s image. With a population that’s 38 percent black, Mississippi has elected hundreds of black public officials in the past four decades — a change directly linked to the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Many people, across racial lines, say it’s important that Civil War history commemorations not turn into celebrations of a lost cause. Derrick Johnson, state president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said generations have been taught a “revisionist history” of the Civil War that ignores or downplays the impact of slavery. He said he wants a full discussion of the war. “In mixed racial company, people don’t want to address race and there is truly an avoidance of
conversation when it relates to history and race,” Johnson said. “Civil War, pre-Civil War, Reconstruction, Redemption, segregation — nobody wants to have candid conversations about how the past affects the public policy of this state and how people of different races interact with one another in this state.” On Dec. 20, 1860, South Carolina became the first state to secede. Mississippi moved next on Jan. 9, 1861, with a secession declaration stating, in part: “Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery — the greatest material interest of the world.” Rick Martin is chief of operations for the Vicksburg National Military Park, a 1,800-acre battlefield that sprawls through the city’s hills and bluffs. The park attracts about 800,000 people a year from around the world, and Martin said their most common questions are “Why did the war start?” and “How could this happen?” “Depending on what part of the country you’re from ... people have been brought up different ways to understand why the Civil War was fought,”
Martin said. “When it comes down to it, you can boil it all down to slavery. That is the root cause of the Civil War.” Robert M. Walker, a historian who became Vicksburg’s first black mayor in the late 1980s, was instrumental in pushing the park to install a monument that honors all black people — free and slave — who participated in military action in Vicksburg during the Civil War. The monument was added in 2003. Black soldiers fought for the Union in the Battle of Milliken’s Bend, La., on June 7, 1863, just up the Mississippi River from Vicksburg. The site was a supply and communication post for the Union as it worked to conquer Vicksburg during a siege that lasted from May 22, 1863, until the Confederates surrendered on July 4. “One thing I’m particularly proud of is that black men who were poorly or sometimes not trained at all took up arms to fight for their own freedom and the freedom of their loved ones,” Walker said. “The conventional belief was that they were not battle worthy, that they Please see WAR | 4B

Today in history Today is Sunday, Sept. 2, the 246th day of 2012. There are 120 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History On Sept. 2, 1945, Japan formally surrendered in ceremonies aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, ending World War II.
On this date In 1666, the Great Fire of London broke out. In 1789, the United States Treasury Department was established. In 1864, during the Civil War, Union Gen. William T. Sherman’s forces occupied Atlanta. In 1901, Vice President Theodore Roosevelt offered the advice, “Speak softly and carry a big stick” in a speech at the Minnesota State Fair. In 1924, the Rudolf Friml operetta “Rose Marie” opened on Broadway. In 1935, a Labor Day hurricane slammed into the Florida Keys, claiming more than 400 lives. In 1944, during World War II, Navy pilot Lt. George Herbert Walker Bush was shot down by Japanese forces as he completed a bombing run over the Bonin Islands. (Bush was rescued by the crew of the submarine USS Finback; his two crew members, however, died.) In 1945, Ho Chi Minh declared Vietnam an independent republic. (Ho died on this date in 1969.) In 1969, in what some regard as the birth of the Internet, two connected computers at the University of California, Los Angeles, passed test data through a 15-foot cable. In 1972, Dave Wottle of the United States won the men’s 800-meter race at the Munich Summer Olympics. In 1986, a judge in Los Angeles sentenced Cathy Evelyn Smith to three years in prison for involuntary manslaughter for her role in the 1982 drug overdose death of comedian John Belushi. (Smith
served 18 months.) In 1998, a Swissair MD-11 jetliner crashed off Nova Scotia, killing all 229 people aboard.
Ten years ago Negotiators at the World Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, agreed on a plan geared to help the globe’s poorest people while reversing environmental declines. Glenn Tilton was named chairman, president and chief executive officer of United Airlines parent UAL Corp.
Five years ago Following two days of talks in Geneva, the chief U.S. envoy said North Korea had agreed to account for and disable its atomic programs by the end of the year; the head of the North Korean delegation said his country’s willingness to cooperate was clear, but he did not cite any dates. Hurricane Felix strengthened into a dangerous Category 4 storm as it toppled trees and flooded homes on a cluster of Dutch islands before churning its way into the open waters of the Caribbean.

Drinker’s defensiveness is cause to delay nuptials DEAR ABBY: My fiance and I have dated for almost three years. We plan to be married a year from now. We were close friends for 12 years prior to dating. Abby, over the last two years, he has developed a bad drinking problem and lost 12 jobs in the last year alone. To his credit, he has been sober for a month now and has accepted a new job. Although I’m happy that he has a new job, I’m also concerned because he will be working in a bar. I am bringing my daughter into this marriage and am worried that he will revert to drinking, which wouldn’t be a good environment. When I discussed it with him, he became irate and said I had insulted his job and was calling him a loser. Then he accused me of using him to support myself and my daughter. He said my “true colors” came through when I encouraged him to stay sober. I am deeply hurt. I don’t understand why he would say such a thing. We had discussed this before, and he didn’t react this way. The last thing I would ever do is marry someone for money. I have always planned to keep my job. He is barely speaking to me now, and I don’t understand his anger. Please help. -- DEPRESSED AND ABANDONED IN TEXAS DEAR DEPRESSED:
Your fiance’s attempt to turn the tables on you, a l o n g Abigail with his Van Buren excessive drinkDear Abby ing and inability to hold a job, are indications that he has an out-of-control alcohol problem. It is typical for addicts to be defensive and attempt to put anyone who confronts them in a corner. Do not accept the guilt trip. It is admirable that he has been sober for a month, but his job in an establishment where alcohol is the prime product is an almost sure road to self-defeat. If someone is serious about surviving such an addiction, the person doesn’t place him- or herself in temptation’s way. Encourage your fiance to reinforce his attempt at sobriety by attending AA meetings. (It is listed in the phone book and online.) Then do your part by attending AlAnon meetings. Meanwhile, put your wedding plans on hold until you’re absolutely sure he won’t be detrimental to your daughter’s -- and your -- future. DEAR ABBY: We have a cabin on a lake in New England. It is next door to some of our relatives. We’ve made friends with
neighbors on the other side and would like to invite them over for dinner. Our relatives are also friendly with the neighbors. If we invite them for dinner, must we invite the relatives too? -- JUDY ON “GOLDEN POND” DEAR JUDY: Technically, you don’t have to. However, if you have mostly socialized as a “threesome,” feelings may be hurt if you suddenly change what has become customary. DEAR ABBY: My wife and I are avid readers who sometimes find that we have too many books. Our solution is to donate our excess books to the local USO. We set up a donation box in our church’s foyer, and once a month we carry the donated books to one of our city’s two USO centers. Service members are encouraged to take them with them as they travel. We have found that there’s always room on the bookshelves at the USO. -- TOM IN SAN ANTONIO DEAR TOM: Thank you for a terrific suggestion. I’m sure many readers will appreciate it -and so will the recipients. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Bride, groom climb mountain for wedding BY MATTHEW BARAKAT Associated Press
McLEAN, Va. — Bob Ewing has gotten a lot of mileage out of his decade-old tuxedo and has even run a couple of marathons in it. Now he’s been married in it, after he and his new bride made the 900-foot sheer climb on one of West Virginia’s most striking landmarks in full wed-
ding regalia. Photos of the bride and groom, both residents of Arlington, Va., atop the narrow peak of Seneca Rocks in West Virginia have become a hit on the Internet, with more than 500,000 views. The bride, Antonie Hodge Ewing, made the climb in her mother’s wedding gown. It was Antonie’s idea to get married on the peak.
Ewing proposed to her in March as the couple scaled the rocks, and after she said yes, she informed him that she wanted to get married there as well. Initially, the plan was for immediate family and some close friends to all make the climb, Antonie said. But it became unwieldy, and they had to cut most everyone from the climbing party.
One year ago In a dramatic reversal, President Barack Obama scrubbed a proposed clean-air regulation aimed at reducing smog, yielding to bitterly protesting businesses and congressional Republicans who’d complained the rule would kill jobs in America’s ailing economy. Turkey expelled Israel’s ambassador and cut military ties over Israel’s refusal to apologize for a deadly 2010 raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.

Families Afield helps boost hunter participation A few years back, a report was released noting a steady decline in the number of people participating in the outdoor hunting sports, which could be seen as an alarming trend for sportsmen looking to preserve their hunting heritage. But thanks in part to a national effort to remove barriers for youth and novice hunters through a Families Afield Initiative, the decade-long decline in hunting participation appears to be over and moving in the opposite direction. The Department of the Interior recently released findings from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service 2011 National Survey of
Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife Recreation study, indicating David more than Green 90 million AmeriOutdoors cans participated in wildlife related recreation, contributing to a 9 percent overall increase in hunting participation from 12.5 million hunters in 2006 to 13.7 million in 2011.

Hunting fees and excise taxes- paid by hunters and shooters- underwrite much of the country’s habitat and conservation programs. “No other civilization or nation has lost their wildlife resources and then rebuilt them like we have.

Movie audiences find anti-Obama doc ‘2016’ BY DERRIK J. LANG AP Entertainment Writer
LOS ANGELES — It wasn’t backed by any Hollywood movie studio. Reviews were mostly negative. It premiered in Houston, not Los Angeles or New York. And yet despite the unconventional release of “2016: Obama’s America,” the movie is now among the most successful political documentaries of all time — and it doesn’t show signs of cooling down ahead of the presidential election. The conservative film exploring the roots of President Barack Obama’s political views surprised the film industry when it took in $6.5 million to land at No. 7 at last weekend’s domestic box office ahead of three new releases: the Joseph Gordon-Levitt action flick “Premium Rush,” the Kristen Bell comedy “Hit and Run” and the Ashley Greene horror film “The
Apparition.” That makes “2016” the most successful conservative documentary of all time. It’s also the sixth overall highest grossing political documentary behind four Michael Moore movies and former Vice President Al Gore’s environmental film “An Inconvenient Truth.” It all adds up to a remarkable triumph for an indie film that circumvented the liberal waters of Hollywood. The film has continued to do well during the slower weekday period, especially considering that it’s been up against the Republican National Convention. Since last weekend, it earned an additional $5.9 million for a total of $12.4 million, placing No. 3 at the domestic box office. Distributed by Salt Lake City-based Rocky Mountain Pictures, “2016” is directed by Dinesh D’Souza, a former staffer for Presi-
dent Ronald Reagan who is now president of King’s College in New York and author of several books, including “The Roots of Obama’s Rage,” the basis for “2016” that claims Obama’s beliefs are rooted in the anti-colonialism of his late father, a Kenyan academic who was largely absent from the president’s life. The film premiered July 13 on one screen in Houston and slowly expanded over the past month to 1,091 theaters in such cities as Nashville, Tenn.; Baton Rouge, La.; Denver; Phoenix; Wichita, Kan.; and Washington, D.C. MJM Entertainment’s Mark Joseph, who is handling the film’s marketing, attested that “2016” had to be promoted differently than typical Hollywood fare. “You can’t just throw up your star on Thursday night on a talk show,” said Joseph. “That’s not how
this works. The traditionalist audience needed to hear about the film much sooner than what Hollywood is used to doing. It’s also important that they heard about it from people that they trust and admire. It’s a different way of engaging the audience.” Joseph and the film’s co-director, John Sullivan, launched a stealthy campaign for the film that attracted the attention and support of right-wing superstars like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck. Buzz for the movie simmered over the summer, bubbling up last weekend before the Republican convention. “Timing is everything,” said Greg Mueller, a conservative strategist whose public relations firm is promoting “The Hope and The Change,” a film about voters who formerly supported Obama that debuted Tuesday at the Republican convention
and is now available on DVD. “Timing is everything in politics. It’s even more important in political documentaries.” While the release of “2016” just before the Republican convention and its portrait of a gloomy future if Obama is reelected might make the film feel like a political ad, the “2016” filmmakers said they only received funding from private investors, not the Republican party, and the movie’s proceeds aren’t headed to Mitt Romney’s presidential bid. “We wanted none of their involvement,” said Gerald Molen, the film’s Montana-based producer who previously worked on such mainstream Hollywood movies like “Days of Thunder” and “Jurassic Park,” and who won an Oscar for “Schindler’s List” in 1993. “It wouldn’t have made sense to do that.” He added that the
film’s estimated $2.5 million budget only came from about two dozen donors supporting D’Souza. Alex Ben Block, a senior editor at The Hollywood Reporter doesn’t think that “2016” will usher in a new era for right-wing films, but he believes the success of the conservative film might encourage likeminded filmmakers to carve out a similar path in landscape that was previously dominated by more liberal filmmakers like Moore. Ultimately, Block said moviegoers will vote at the box office. “’2016’ has succeeded, but it’s going to be very hard to duplicate,” said Block. “These things are driven by politics and passion. They’re driven by people who are trying to be noticed and make their point. It’s a powerful combination when you have a documentary that can be both commercial and have a point of view.”
Pentagon may take legal action against Navy SEAL author BY ROBERT BURNS AP National Security Writer
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon’s top lawyer on Thursday informed the former Navy SEAL who wrote a forthcoming book describing details of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden that he violated agreements to not divulge military secrets and that as a result the Pentagon is considering taking legal action against him. The general counsel of the Defense Department, Jeh Johnson, wrote in a letter transmitted to the author that he had signed two nondisclosure agreements with the Navy in 2007 that obliged him to
“never divulge” classified information. “This commitment remains in force even after you left the active duty Navy,” Johnson wrote. He said the author, Matt Bissonnette, left active duty “on or about April 20, 2012,” which was nearly one year after the May 2011 raid. By signing the agreements, Bissonnette acknowledged his awareness, Johnson wrote, that “disclosure of classified information constitutes a violation of federal criminal law.” He said it also obliged the author to submit his manuscript for a security review by the
government before it was published. The Pentagon has said the manuscript was not submitted for review, although it obtained a copy last week. Johnson said that after reviewing a copy of the book, “No Easy Day,” the Pentagon concluded that the author is in “material breach and violation” of the agreements. The book is to be published this week by Penguin Group (USA)’s Dutton imprint. The Associated Press purchased a copy Tuesday. Johnson addressed his letter to Mr. “Mark Owen,” using quotation marks to signify that that
Horoscopes Sunday, September 2, 2012 BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Creators Syndicate
Mercury, the communication planet, is in opposition to Neptune, the planet of dreams, causing tension between our outer and inner worlds. Mental pictures are either the compass that helps us stay on track, or the distraction that disengages us from reality. Take in beauty so your inner vision can reflect it when you need it most. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may feel like a magician who shouldn’t reveal secrets because all of the other magicians would be adversely affected. But you’re not a magician. And if you don’t tell, the only one you’ll be hurting is you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are never too young, too old or too broke to make a difference in someone’s life. Start with you. Whatever your state, you’ll be inspired to improve it. All it takes is one move. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some people in your family have perfected the fine art of asking if you need help when the work is 99 percent finished. You’ll forgive this and other rudeness because truly no harm is meant. CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you are looking for validation from outside sources, you probably will find it, though it will be about as lasting as it is satisfying. The spiritual work you do will have more permanence. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When people pay attention to you, count it as positive even if they don’t give you quite the reaction you were looking for. It is better to be misinterpreted than ignored. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
don’t always think of yourself as a creative person, which is strange considering that the way you put your life together is an artistic effort. Own your status as a destiny designer. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Morality is easily sorted out among people with similar beliefs, but if you introduce the topic in a religiously and socially diverse group, you should brace yourself for a fight. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The cause that captures your curiosity and heart will soon capture your identity, as well. Your efforts in this regard will bring you so much fulfillment that this cause will change who you are. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll meet a situation you weren’t expecting and find that nothing about it yields to your influence. The only thing you can change about this is your attitude -- but that just may change everything! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You only get one chance to get this day right, but when you’re aware of the precious nature of the moment (not to mention the ambiguity of “right”), one chance is enough. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Since you’re so secure, you don’t have to tell everyone what you’re worth. It’s enough for you to quietly acknowledge to yourself that you’re worth a lot. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Before you got hooked on a song, it would have been hard to explain how a person could ever get hooked on a song. Love is like that, too, and you’re feeling it in a way that’s pointless to explain to anyone who hasn’t been there.
Cryptoquip
this is the author’s pseudonym. His real name is Matt Bissonnette. Bissonnette referred requests for comment about the letter to his publisher, which was not immediately available. “I write to formally advise you of your material breach and violation of your agreements, and to inform you that the department is considering pursuing against you, and all those acting in concert with you, all remedies legally available to us in light of this situation,” Johnson wrote. The Pentagon has not revealed how it got a copy of the book.
Johnson noted that “copies of the book have apparently already been released.” He added, “further public dissemination of your book will aggravate your breach and violation of your agreements.” The Pentagon did not release copies of the nondisclosure agreements that it said Bissonnette had signed in 2007. A spokesman, Army Col. Steve Warren, said they were being withheld because they include the author’s real name and his signature. In his book, Bissonnette wrote that the SEALs spotted bin Laden at the top of a darkened hall-
way and shot him in the head even though they could not tell whether he was armed. Administration officials have described the SEALs shooting bin Laden only after he ducked back into a bedroom because they assumed he might be reaching for a weapon. Military experts said Wednesday that if Bissonnette’s recollection is accurate, the SEALS made the right call to open fire on the terrorist mastermind, who had plenty of time to reach for a weapon or explosives as they made their way up to the third level of the house where he hid.
