Ayrshire Electronics announces expansion For the Daily Corinthian

Officials from Ayrshire Electronics, a full-service, privately-held electronics manufacturing firm, have announced the company is expanding operations at its Corinth facility. The expansion, Ayrshire’s second in four years in Mississippi, added 15 new jobs at the company’s Alcorn County plant earlier this summer. “I am pleased that Ayrshire Electronics is expanding its Mississippi operations, and I thank the company for its continued commitment to Corinth and Alcorn County,” Governor Phil Bryant said. “Ayrshire’s growth is proof that ‘Mississippi Works’, and we look for-

ward to the company’s continued success.” The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) provided assistance in support of the project for the rehabilitation of an existing HVAC unit. The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors and The Alliance assisted with the project, as well. In October 2008, Ayrshire acquired the former ACT Electronics’ Corinth plant after ACT announced its plans to close the facility and eliminate 200 jobs. With the assistance of MDA and local officials, Ayrshire moved quickly to acquire the assets of ACT Electronics’ Corinth operation and retain all of ACT’s full-time

employees. “Ayrshire has expanded its Mississippi operations again, and MDA has been proud to support the company as it continues to invest in its Corinth facility and grow its workforce,” said Brent Christensen, MDA executive director. “We are pleased the State of Mississippi was able to assist Ayrshire with this latest expansion, and we thank our partners in Corinth and Alcorn County for working to make this expansion possible.” “We appreciate the support of the State of Mississippi, Alcorn County Board of Supervisors, City of Corinth and The Alliance,” said Edward Carter,

vice-president of Aryshire Electronics of Mississippi. “As we continue our efforts to grow the Aryshire’s Corinth location, we know we have the support of all of these groups. Mississippi is a great place for business.” Alcorn County Board of Supervisors President Lowell Hinton said he recognizes Ayrshire's workforce capability. “We appreciate Ayrshire Electronics' growth in Alcorn County since 2008. Ayrshire recognizes Alcorn County's workforce has the capability to perform at a high level. The Board welcomes the opportunity to work with manufacturers who want to expand their

operations in the County and increase the availability of jobs for our residents,” said Hinton. Added Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin, “Aryshire's leadership here and in Louisville (KY) have been proactive from day one in terms of job creation and capital investment. They continually search for ways to grow the facility in Corinth. I applaud Ayrshire's commitment to our community.” State Representative Nick Bain welcomed the news and noted the work ethic of local people. “This is exciting news for Please see AYRSHIRE | 3A

Job fair goal: ‘Right fit’ Tourism board discusses next step BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth Area Convention & Visitors Bureau Board discussed its possible next steps in the ongoing budget cut issue during the board’s regular monthly meeting on Tuesday. The board discussed the possible outcome of a meeting scheduled for the morning of Sept. 29 when the Alcorn County of Supervisors and Corinth Aldermen will hold a joint committee to decide the future of the tourism office’s budget. “What it boils down to is they will set our budget,” said Tourism Director Kristy White. “We don’t know if they will set it line by line or designate money for the Crossroads Arena.”

Fair rates as a success for Northeast Mississippi WIN, employers and job seekers BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

The right fit. Employers and job seekers had the same goal in mind at the Northeast Mississippi WIN Job Fair. “From what I have heard today, a lot of people are fitting the mode of these companies,” said Adam Todd, director of the Governor's Job Fair Net-

work. “Businesses are being a little more selective these days.” A total of 50 employers registered for the annual fair with 46 showing up on Tuesday at the Crossroads Arena. Those looking for work totaled 750. “Although the numbers were down, I think this was the best job fair yet,” said WIN Job Center Case Manager/Custom

Service Coordinator Amanda Johnson. Todd agreed. “There was a lot of positive feedback from employers,” he said. “Having the staffing companies here really helped.” The director expects the number of people being put to work over the next 12 months Please see JOBS | 2A

White said she thinks the committee should designate whether the money taken from the tourism budget will be used for promotion or general operating expenses. Board member Luke Doehner said it would set a precedent if the city and county leaders decide to set the budget line by line. “They could do that every year,” Doehner said. Board Member John Ross — speaking as a citizen and not from his board position — offered what he called a “revolutionary proposal” that would eventually require approval from the board if adopted. Ross’ idea is to place the Please see TOURISM | 3A

Preservation panel OKs restaurant plans BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth Preservation Commission has approved a certificate of appropriateness for a planned restaurant in the former Rankin Printery building. Proposed changes to the building had to come before the commission because of its location in the historic preservation district at 605 Fillmore Street. The application was made by Corinth restaurateur Rus-

sell Smith. Preservation Commission Chairman Robert Gray said Smith acquired the property and plans a restaurant that will include a new dining balcony featuring railings extending the Rankin pencil motif that is present in the existing facade. The plan would preserve the upper part of the facade with the pencil motif. According to the preservaPlease see PLANS | 3A Staff photo by Bobby J. Smith

Hathcock shooting — ‘Too many questions?’ BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Recently a former law enforcement officer from Arkansas named Mike Elam led a bus tour to Corinth and McNairy County. The purpose of the trip was to share a different version of some of the events in the life and legend of McNairy County’s “Walking Tall” sheriff, the one and only Buford Pusser. At one of the most important stops on the tour, Elam and his group stood on a concrete slab just north of Corinth on Old Highway 45. Overgrown and

garbage-strewn, the slab is all that remains of the Shamrock Restaurant and Motel – a place remembered as one of the most wicked pieces of real estate from a time when there was much competition for that title. The Shamrock was one of the haunts of the Hathcocks, charter members of what was called the State Line Mob. Here, they say, tourists were fleeced, the whiskey flowed, prostitutes operated unimpaired and sin held sway. It was here that Sheriff Pusser killed Louise Anderson Hathcock, one of the State Line

Mob’s most integral members and wife of the late Jack Hathcock, a longtime state line operator. Here’s how the official story goes: On Feb. 2, 1966, Sheriff Pusser made a trip to the Shamrock – which straddled the Mississippi-Tennessee line – with two deputies to investigate an alleged purse theft that happened in one of the Shamrock’s motel rooms.

Local/Region City rejects tourism budget 2A • Daily Corinthian

Questions emerge in board agenda workshop BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

A day after county supervisors rejected the tourism budget, Corinth aldermen voted it down on Tuesday. Some questions emerged, however, in the board’s agenda workshop meeting preceding the regular board meeting. Alderman Michael McFall said he hasn’t received enough information about a plan to refinance arena bonds for the purpose of revamping and

expanding Crossroads Regional Park. It’s a plan that apparently would be set in motion if the city and county boards agree to divert $250,000 of tourism funding to Crossroads Arena. “I’m a thousand percent for the park, but it’s never been discussed that I know of,” he said. Alderman Ben Albarracin said he has not been included in any discussion about the park plan. “I would like to see the

master plan. I haven’t been presented a plan or anything,” he said. If that plan goes forward, the half of the tourism tax that now goes to arena debt would go to debt on both the arena and park construction. “This is a perfect opportunity to improve our park with tourism money and have something longlasting,” said Mayor Tommy Irwin. It has been described as a $5 million project.

Attorney Wendell Trapp noted that the business at hand was not directly about the park proposal but rather to simply approve or reject the proposed fiscal 2013 budget of the Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. Aldermen unanimously rejected it. With both boards voting not to accept the revised budget, it will be considered in a joint meeting of the city and county boards

at 9 a.m. on Monday at City Hall. A combined vote of the two boards will determine what happens to the budget. The city’s budget adopted last week states that $250,000 will go to Crossroads Arena and $50,000 will go to previously funded events. City and county officials have said only $46,000 of the CVB’s budget was spent on those events last year. Following Tuesday’s meeting, Tourism Direc-

tor Kristy White said that is not true. She said the number is approximately $80,000 when sponsorships are included. It has been tourism’s position that the tourism tax funds can only be used for advertising and promotion, not operations, but city and county officials believe the funds can be used to run the arena. A number of parties interested in the issue sat in the audience during the board meeting.

and Caterpillar.” Some helpful advice was also passed along to many job seekers. “I am hearing a lot of 'I'm just looking for a job,'” said Cindy Cain with Volt Workforce Solutions. “You have to be more specific when you are looking for a job.” Over the past 50 years, Volt has developed capabilities and services for every aspect of staffing. The company pledges to find the right fit for both the employer and those seeking work. John Pounds was one of several looking at opportunities. “I want something where I can work and stay in school,” said the Kossuth graduate. “There are jobs out there and all the employers have really helped me.” Cain said that's the goal of the employer. “Any chance we have to

help someone be successful, we are going to take,” she said. “That is what we are here to do.” According to Todd, everything a person looking for work needed was on hand Tuesday. “Any opportunity a person has to better themselves is here,” he said. The director also pointed out that some sort of skill training isn't a bad idea. “Now is not a bad time to look at additional training,” said the director. “Find out what people are looking for and train for those skills.” 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. “We are on par to do more job fairs than ever before,” said Todd.

tion commission, the plan includes removal of the 20th century modernization of the ground floor and replacement with a traditional downtown Corinth storefront to serve as the entrance to the restaurant. Gray said the commission commends Smith “for his extraordinary efforts to create a distinctive renovation of this downtown landmark in a manner that reinforces the historic qualities of the Corinth downtown and will provide a new vitality to our main thoroughfare.” He said the plans will also go before the city planning commission and Board of Aldermen for consideration.

Crossroads Arena under the control of the Tourism Board, abolish the Arena Board and make major changes to the tourism board — likely incorporating members of the Arena Board into the new board. “The main thing this

would do is alleviate the fears of the city and county about continuing to finance the arena,” said Ross. Ross said he intended to start the process himself, calling it a “last-ditch effort to compromise. “It may not fly — but I’ll try,” he said. Board President Chris

Porterfield said he had been thinking about a similar plan. “It will take a lot of legwork and compromise between the Arena Board and the Tourism Board,” said Porterfield. If the idea becomes a reality, Porterfield said he would resign as a member of the new board be-

cause he is an employee of Coca-Cola — an arena sponsor. “That would be fine with me. I would step down,” he said. “I can find other ways to help out.” Ross pointed out that his own term on the board expires next year, and said he would not seek reappointment.

Father evokes pride and a little prejudice

Rheta Johnson Columnist

I have written lots of times about my father. Some of what I write he likes, some not, but he never fusses or pouts or tries to tell me what to write. He is honest that way. On the contrary, he brags on me to total strangers in grocery stores and doctors’ waiting rooms and doesn’t stop when met with studied

indifference. He will turn 87 this week. I don’t know why we “turn” an age, as in turning a page. Maybe I’ve answered my own question. Some of my first memories of my Daddy are on Pensacola Bay, looking out at him on the vast green water. He is water-skiing, a tall and invincible man skimming water on wood, as close to flying as a human could come. For a few wonderful childhood years, we spent a lot of time on Pensacola Beach. When I’d try to cross the blinding white sand, it felt scalding-hot to tender young feet. My father would hear me cry out and come and scoop me up and rush me to the lace trim of the ocean. He’s been rescuing me ever since. He taught me the usual things a good father teaches: how to ride a bike, how to drive a car, how to stay quiet when adults are talking. He also taught me how to parallel park and play poker. He taught more by example. He got up and went to work every day, rain or shine, with shoes polished and mind right. He’d been to world war in the Pacific; every duty that followed was gravy. He gave me the things I most wanted: a horse, music lessons, a cocker spaniel puppy. But more importantly he gave me the things I needed: square meals, comfortable home, discipline, money for college. I remember vividly the times he was sick and in bed, because they were such rare occasions. Once he had his tonsils out and ate a lot of ice cream. Another time he fell while trimming a tree and broke his leg. He never complained about the pin or the pain. On Sunday nights, he’d pop some popcorn and we’d turn on “Bonanza.” I felt like a member of a fine and exclusive club. In college I won the election for campus newspaper editor. Before the first issue came out, I panicked. This thing that I’d wanted so badly now seemed overwhelming and scary. I phoned my father, of course. He told me I’d already been doing the job, not to let the title of editor scare me. Just do your best, he said, and I’ll be proud. And he was. Out of college, I tried with my former husband to start a weekly newspaper. It failed after 26 weeks, but it wouldn’t have lasted that long without help from my father’s employer. There was at least one page of advertising on which we could depend. When we came home broke and tired in our old pea-green Pinto, Daddy didn’t say “I told you so,” though he endlessly had preached the wisdom of working for an established company. I want to take this newspaper you are reading and thump these words the way I’ve seen my father do. “That’s my father,” I’d tell you. “And I’m mighty proud of him.” (To find out more about Daily Corinthian columnist Rheta Grimsley Johnson and her books, visit www.rhetagrimsleyjohnsonbooks.com.)

Prayer for today Holy God, we thank you for the birth of your son, Christ Jesus, through whom we can be re-created and re-born to eternal life with you. Amen.

A verse to share God said, “It was I who taught Ephraim to walk, I took them up in my arms; but they did not know that I healed them. I led them with cords of human kindness, with bands of love. I was to them like those who lift infants to their cheeks. I bent down to them and fed them.” — Hosea 11:3-4 (nRSV)

Voting Rights section faces judicial challenge STARKVILLE — There’s no real question that Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act fundamentally changed the composition of the elected leadership of the South and that the provision served Sid Salter its purpose in circumColumnist venting oppressive Jim Crow laws that disenfranchised black Southern voters from Reconstruction to the mid-1960s. Section 5 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act established nine states that were declared “covered jurisdictions” under the new laws. “Covered jurisdiction” states, counties and municipalities cannot implement voting law changes without federal “preclearance” by the Justice Department. States included in the “covered jurisdiction” by the Voting Rights Act include: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia. There are also counties in California, Florida, New York, North Carolina, and South Dakota as well as some cities in Michigan and

New Hampshire that are included. The Voting Right Act provided extensive federal oversight of elections administration in states with “a history of discriminatory voting practices” (which the act specified as the ‘covered jurisdictions’) and despite the passage of 47 years, the highest percentage of black voters in the country, and the largest number of black elected officials of any state in the union, Mississippi election law changes are still subject to federal preclearance -- just as they are in the rest of the “covered jurisdictions.” One needs look no deeper than the first 30 years of the Voting Rights Act’s existence in five southern states to see its impact. In Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas, the total increase in black elected officials between 1970 and 2000 was more than tenfold. In 2000, Mississippi and Alabama together had more black elected officials (1,628) than the entire nation had in 1970. In1970, the 10 states with the highest number of black elected officials collectively had 821, while in 2000 the top 10 states had 5,887. The 10 states with the largest number of black

elected officials in 2000 were: Mississippi (897), Alabama (731), Louisiana (701), Illinois (621), Georgia (582), South Carolina (540), Arkansas (502), North Carolina (498), Texas (475), and Michigan (340). But in the last decade, Section 5 states have begun to chafe under the law while the U.S. Supreme Court has wondered aloud whether the central provisions of the Voting Rights Act have begun to outlive their usefulness. Six states – Alabama, Arizona, Georgia, South Carolina, South Dakota and Texas -- have asked the nation’s highest court to rule that all states have equal sovereignty in making election laws barring “compelling justification.” Mississippi is not one of the six states challenging Section 5, but clearly would be impacted by any substantial challenge to the law. Many proponents of declaring Section 5 unconstitutional in the political climate that exists in 2012 in Mississippi claim that the state’s existing slate of black elected officials is prima facie evidence that Section 5 enforcement is no longer necessary and indeed hampers Mississippi from making the same election laws as states that have a far less

diverse electorate or slate of elected officials. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Clarence Thomas have both expressed strong doubts as to the constitutional validity of Section 5 since 2009. Opponents of Section 5 who don’t have seats on the nation’s highest court argue that Section 5 has become politicized to the point that its enforcement is less about constitutional rights than it is about partisan political advantage. With an overwhelming white majority in the Mississippi GOP and a similar black majority in the Mississippi Democratic Party, Mississippi is a textbook example of the quandary surrounding Section 5. While no judicial action is expected before the 2012 presidential election, it’s likely that a direct challenge to Section 5 will make it to the Supreme Court within the next 18 months. In the South, it’s a challenge that Republicans welcome and that Democrats will tend to fear given the current composition of the Supreme Court. (Daily Corinthian columnist Sid Salter is a syndicated columnist. Contact him at 601-507-8004 or sidsalter@sidsalter.com.)

Why can’t Republicans talk about the truth? The first time I saw Chris Christie on television, shortly after he became governor of New Jersey, my immediate reaction was, “My Gosh! A Talking Republican!” It was almost like seeing a talking giraffe or a talking salamander. Technically speaking, Republicans do talk, but talking is definitely not their strong suit. Nor do they seem to have put a lot of thought into what they say or how they say it. The net result is that articulate Democrats can get away with the biggest lies, without any serious rebuttal from most Republicans. I have not heard any Republican official or candidate even try to answer a standard claim of the Democrats, that “deregulation” is the reason the housing market went haywire and brought down the economy. Therefore, according to the Democrats, Republicans who want to restore a free market are just trying to “go back to the same policies that got us into this mess in the first place.” That sounds very persuasive, if you don’t know the facts -- and it sounds like hogwash if you do. But facts don’t speak for

themselves. And if we wait for the Republicans to speak, the whole country can be in Thomas big trouble. Sowell The “deregulation” Columnist gambit is not new. It was tried out years ago, in California, when some of the most heavy-handed regulation of the electrical utility companies forced them to charge less for electricity than they had to pay to buy it. After this led to their financial collapse, and then to power failures that outraged the public, the Democrats’ response was that this was all due to “deregulation.” It is the same story today on the national level. Federal agencies with powers of economic life and death over banks and other lenders forced these lenders to lower their lending standards. The words of the regulators themselves are a matter of public record, and they sound like something out of “Alice in Wonderland.” They ought to be quoted, to give the lie to claims that “deregulation”

is the reason for the housing boom and bust. Some people think that nonsense is too silly to answer. But not answering it can just allow nonsense to prevail. Much as I admire the approach of Congressman Paul Ryan, I cringed during one of his speeches when he said that none of his reforms would deny benefits to people already getting Social Security. When the truth is just a passing blip on the screen and the lies go on at great length, guess which one is likely to prevail politically. People depending on that monthly Social Security check need to hear that you understand that they paid into Social Security when they were working, and that it would be unconscionable to now cheat them out of what they paid for. Policy wonks already know that nobody in his right mind has proposed any such thing. But, if you depend on the votes of policy wonks to win elections, be prepared to lose in a landslide. One of the biggest of the election year lies is that Republicans want to sacrifice the poor in order to have

“tax cuts for the rich.” That would be grossly immoral -- if it were true. Unscrambling the confusion in that argument can involve work. But if people on welfare can be expected to work, surely people running for high office can put in a little work. But so long as Republicans don’t seem to feel any urgency about refuting the Democrats’ claim that they just want to help the rich at the expense of the poor, they are courting defeat on election day. Why lose to a lie because you didn’t bother to explain the truth? Some of the time that was spent at the Republican convention trying to “humanize” Mitt Romney could have been better spent debunking the Democrats’ talking points. After all, we are not going to be voting for a Buddy-in-Chief in the White House, but for someone with some clear ideas about what this country needs -- and who is willing to share those ideas with us in plain English.

HATHCOCK CONTINUED FROM 1A

spoke with the victims, an Illinois couple, Pusser and Chief Deputy Jim Moffett went inside the motel office to have a talk with the motel’s proprietor, Louise Hathcock. “There is no independent source to verify what really happened from that point on, but according to Pusser’s version of the story, Louise was intoxicated and mean spirited,” said Elam. When Hathcock realized she was about to be arrested, the story goes, she invited the sheriff into her private quarters while Deputy Moffett waited outside. As they entered the room, according to Pusser, Hathcock attempted to close the door, but the door wouldn’t shut because of some recently dry cleaned clothes hanging on the door knob. Pusser said Hathcock started cursing him, drew her Smith & Wesson .38 and fired a shot. The bul-

let buzzed harmlessly past his ear. The room was small, and the six-and-ahalf-foot tall Pusser fell over the bed as Hathcock stood over him and fired a second time. She was at point-blank range. But the hammer clicked down. A misfire. Then, according to Pusser, Hathcock backed away. Pusser drew his sidearm, a stout .41 magnum caliber revolver. He fired, he said, striking the woman in the left shoulder. “Pusser stated that Hathcock raised her weapon to fire again, but he fired first, the projectile striking her torso,” said Elam. “Buford never spoke much of the third shot – the one to her head.” In a taped interview some time later, Deputy Plunk said there was a hole in Hathcock’s back big enough to stick a door knob in. Later a grand jury exonerated Pusser of any wrongdoing in the death

of Louise Hathcock. Her death was ruled a case of justifiable homicide. Elam’s Questions Over years of research, Elam has come across much that seems to tell another story about what happened in Hathcock’s room at the Shamrock that day. “Upon review, the evidence seems to show a very different story than what Pusser told,” he said. First is the autopsy report. This indicated that the first shot from Pusser’s .41 magnum actually struck Hathcock in the back side of her left shoulder, with the bullet exiting the front of the shoulder. The next shot also entered Hathcock’s back, just below the left shoulder blade. The slug traveled diagonally across her body and exited beneath her right breast. “The third shot, the one to Hathcock’s head that Pusser rarely spoke of,

entered near the left jaw line, exiting the back of her skull,” said Elam. The autopsy report – which demonstrated that Louise Hathcock was repeatedly shot in the back – was never shown to the grand jury. In fact, its existence was not generally known, even to Hathcock’s surviving family members, until recent years. There may also be a financial aspect to the story that was overlooked. At the time of the shooting, the IRS was about to seize the Shamrock for back taxes owed on Jack Hathcock’s estate. Louise was known to distrust banks. She didn’t want outsiders to know of her financial affairs and was said to keep her money stashed at the motel. “Many people close to the real story suggest that her money was the real reason behind her death, some suggesting that Pusser wanted to get his hands on the cash that was hidden

in her room before the IRS seized the building and before Louise could move it,” Elam proposed. Elam said Hathcock had allegedly been paying Pusser as much as $1,500 a month for “special consideration” in the enforcement of the law – or the lack thereof – at the state line. “With the IRS about to seize the Shamrock, basically killing the goose that laid the golden egg, did Buford go after one last big payday, the approximately $250,000 dollars that Louise was alleged to have stashed inside hidden compartments in her walls?” asked Elam. On the day of Hathcock’s death, Jim Moffett tried to resign his job as chief deputy. “It is not known why he wanted to leave, but somehow Buford convinced him to stay on,” said Elam. “Moffett later told his wife that if anything ever hap-

pened to him, she should look no further than Buford Pusser.” Photos taken of the crime scene include a color photograph that shows Hathcock lying dead on the floor. “Many people who have seen the photo, including me, believe it to have been staged, as it rather conveniently shows all of the components one would want others to see: Louise, her gun, the glass she was drinking from and, oddly, a large roll of cash lying with her.” While the world will never know the truth regarding what actually happened when Hathcock was killed, Elam said, the autopsy alone is proof that the real events of Feb. 2, 1966, are quite different than the accepted version of the story. “Again, why have an autopsy performed and then fail to use it in the grand jury hearing?” said Elam. “Too many questions and too few answers.”

Man makes no bones about buying skeletons Associated Press

SCHNECKSVILLE, Pa. — A pair of skeletons for sale at a Pennsylvania auction house went for more than a couple of bones. A Lancaster County antiques dealer bought

both skeletons last week at Tom Hall Auctions in Schnecksville. A male skeleton in a tuxedo went for $900 and his Biblecarrying female counterpart went for $950. The skeletons are believed to be of German

or Irish origin in the late 19th or early 20th century. They each were owned at one point by a New York mortician’s museum and the Independent Order of Oddfellows, the likely origin of their accessories.

Romney questions Palestinian resolve WASHINGTON — Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s comments expressing doubt about Palestinians’ commitment to peace again highlight the closeness of his position to that of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Romney has sometimes echoed hardline Israeli positions similar to those of Netanyahu, although not always intentionally in public. In a newly disclosed video clip of a private fundraiser in May, Romney tells wealthy supporters that Palestinians “have no interest” in peace with Israel and that the conflict “is going to remain an unsolved problem.” The video’s disclosure comes at a time when the Israeli leader, a personal friend of Romney since they worked together in Boston financial houses as young men, has been closely involving himself in the U.S. presidential race. Netanyahu increasingly has criticized allies including President Barack Obama who have failed to agree to declare a “red line” for Iran — one that could trigger a U.S. military response if crossed. At the same time, he’s clearly sided with Romney while his relationship with Obama has been cool. It’s extremely rare, almost unheard of, for a foreign leader to do that. Most, in fact, try their hardest to run the other way. Romney and Netanyahu are “two peas in a pod,” said historian Douglas Brinkley of Rice

University. Brinkley said it’s rare for foreign leaders to get involved in U.S. elections since British leaders tried in the early 1800s. But he also said world leaders who went to college in the United States as Netanyahu did “seem to feel a special kinship to America, and often a feeling that they should interject themselves.” The Israeli prime minister spent much of his childhood in the Philadelphia suburbs and graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Asked this past Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” whether Iran already had crossed his “red line,” Netanyahu answered with a football reference: “They’re in the red zone. You know, they’re in the last 20 yards. And you can’t let them cross that goal line. You can’t let them score a touchdown.” “This is a matter of urgency,” he told CNN, calling on Obama to take the kind of action President John F. Kennedy took in giving the Soviet Union an ultimatum during the Cuban missile crisis. Noting that Obama has said that it would be unacceptable for Iran to possess nuclear weapons, Netanyahu said, “If you’re determined to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons, it means you’ll act before they get nuclear weapons.”

Romney must steady shaky campaign WASHINGTON — Republican White House nominee Mitt Romney faced the task of getting his campaign back on track Tuesday after a hidden camera caught him off guard, while President

Barack Obama was kicking back in New York on David Letterman’s couch and at a fundraiser with Beyonci and Jay-Z. Romney plans no apology for stating that nearly half of Americans “believe that they are victims.” Instead, he is expected to respond to questions about the statement by reinforcing the message he delivered at a hastily called news conference Monday night, in which he said Obama favors “a government-centered society” with people dependent on public support. Romney advisers concede the video came at a bad time — seven weeks before Election Day and with early voting beginning in two dozen states by this weekend. They acknowledge the remarks may dominate news coverage for days but dispute the notion that Romney’s comments could fundamentally change the election. The unscripted moment was reminiscent of the 2008 campaign, when Obama was caught telling the wealthy wing of his party at a private fundraiser in San Francisco that some residents of depressed rural areas get bitter and “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them.” In the Romney video, recorded at a Florida fundraiser in May, the candidate says 47 percent of Americans don’t pay taxes and believe they are entitled to extensive government support. “My job is not to worry about those people,” he said. After the video posted late Monday afternoon on Mother Jones magazine’s website, Romney refused to take them back. He told reporters that while his comments were “not elegantly stated,” he stood by his remarks.

Battery-powered demand Lithium is essential for powering our digital lives. The silvery white metal is the key component of lithium-ion batteries, the power source of choice for most smartphones and other mobile devices. So how can investors profit? Lithium isnâ€™t traded on any of the major exchanges. Itâ€™s typically purchased in contracts with major lithium producers. Instead average investors can buy the stock of diversified chemical companies like Rockwood Holdings, Chemical & Mining Co. of Chile and FMC. This trio accounts for the vast majority of lithium production worldwide â€“ roughly 85 percent when Rockwood completes the acquisition of a fourth key producer, Australian company Talison Lithium. The $732 million

deal, announced last month, will give Rockwood about 50 percent of global production. Despite the concentration of producers, there are two caveats. The first is that lithium is a small part of each companyâ€™s business. Last year Rockwoodâ€™s lithium business generated about 13 percent of its $3.7 billion in revenue. The second is that battery production accounts for about 30 percent of total lithium demand. The rest is demand for the production of ceramics, glass and other compounds. Still, the explosive growth of portable technology has whipped up demand for lithium and it is projected to continue growing.

MARKET SUMMARY G

General Mills earnings

Improved home sales?

The company behind popular food brands like Cheerios and Hamburger Helper reports fiscal first-quarter results today. General Mills has enjoyed strong sales in Europe, Canada, Latin America and the AsiaPacific region this year. That trend, along with higher prices, have helped the company offset costs running at the highest level in more than three decades.

Economists are expecting that sales of previously occupied homes climbed between July and August. The National Association of Realtors reports the latest home sales figures today. Economistsâ€™ are forecasting that sales increased at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.6 million. That's still less than the 6 million rate economists say makes for a healthy housing market. Sales have been climbing on a monthly basis after hitting a low point in June.

Corinth blanked in 1-3A contest BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth Lady Warriors were unable to capitalize on a season sweep of the Itawamba Indians as they fell in a 10-0 shutout in slow-pitch softball action on Tuesday. The defeat snaps the Warriors, to eight-game winning streak, and drops them 14-6 for the season, and 2-1 in division play. The 2-1 division record includes a previous 6-0 defeat of the Lady Indians on September 6, as well as a win against Tishomingo County. Jamia Kirk, Bailee Kramer and Anna Kayte Webb all recorded base hits for the Warriors during the match, each unable to capitalize into a run for the team. The Warriors also had three errors in game play for the day. The team will take the field against the Amory Lady Panthers on Thursday at the Corinth Sportsplex. First pitch is set for 6 p.m.

Week a blessing for Blue Devils BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

BOONEVILLE — Mike Mattox is hoping an open week turns his team from Bruised Devils back into Blue Devils. The third-year head coach’s Booneville squad is idle this week after going 3-2 in nondivision play. The Blue Devils will open league play on Sept. 28 against Alcorn Central. “We’ve tried to keep an open date right before division play and its been good for us,” said Mattox. “I’m really proud to have it now because we’re beat up pretty good.” The Class 3A Devils moved

up in class for three of their early season games, facing off with 5A Saltillo and close 4A neighbors Tishomingo County and Corinth. Booneville dropped a sixpoint decision to Corinth and fell in overtime at Saltillo. “We could be 5-0, but that’s just part of the game,” said Mattox. They also played rival Baldwyn and Walnut in the early going. Key injuries began to mount in Week 2 against the Bearcats and carried over into the next three weeks. Booneville was down four starters -- including quarterback Jack Simpson -- head-

ing into the Saltillo game and saw that number bumped to five before last week’s game at Tishomingo County. “We’re going to get two of those back today,” said Mattox. Mattox will use the rest of the open week to stress fundamentals and work on some things that crept up during the first half of the season. There will be some contact work, but that will be limited due to the thin Booneville roster. All things considered, Mattox is pleased with the way things have stacked up so far. “I’ve really been pleased with our effort,” he said. “I’ve

seen a lot of positives.” While a tough non-league schedule can skew a team’s overall record and leave a unit open to injuries in games that don’t count toward the playoffs, Mattox his hoping it will pay off in the long run. “If we can get everybody back, we’ve accomplished just what we wanted in playing bigger schools and quality opponents,” said Mattox. “That should make us a better team and help us going into our division schedule.” Next Friday’s contest against Alcorn Central will also serve as Booneville’s Homecoming.

NFL Films president Steve Sabol dies at 69 Associated Press

NEW YORK — With the eye of an art history major, Steve Sabol filmed the NFL as a ballet and blockbuster movie all in one. Half of the father-son team that revolutionized sports broadcasting, the NFL Films president died Tuesday of brain cancer at age 69 in Moorestown, N.J. He leaves behind a league bigger than ever, its fans enthralled by the plot twists and characters he so deftly chronicled. “Steve Sabol was the creative genius behind the remarkable work of NFL Films,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement

from the league confirming Sabol’s death. “Steve’s passion for football was matched by his incredible talent and energy. Steve’s legacy will be part of the NFL forever. He was a major contributor to the success of the NFL, a man who changed the way we look at football and sports, and a great friend.” Sabol was diagnosed with a tumor on the left side of his brain after being hospitalized for a seizure in March 2011. When Ed Sabol founded NFL Films, his son was there working beside him as a cinematographer right from the start in 1964. They introduced a series of innovations

taken for granted today, from super slow-motion replays to blooper reels to sticking microphones on coaches and players. And they hired the “Voice of God,” John Facenda, to read lyrical descriptions in solemn tones. Until he landed the rights to chronicle the 1962 NFL championship game, Ed Sabol’s only experience filming sports was recording the action at Steve’s high school football games in Philadelphia. “We see the game as art as much as sport,” Steve Sabol told The Associated Press before his father was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of

Fame last year. “That helped us nurture not only the game’s traditions but to develop its mythology: America’s Team, The Catch, The Frozen Tundra.” The two were honored with the Lifetime Achievement Emmy from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in 2003. In his career, Steve Sabol won 35 Emmys for writing, cinematography, editing, directing and producing — no one else had ever earned that many in as many different categories. “Steve Sabol leaves a lasting impact on the National FootPlease see SABOL | 9A

ball League that will be felt for a long time to come,” NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith said. “His vision and innovation helped make him a pioneer the likes of which the NFL has never seen before and won’t see again.” He was the perfect fit for the job: an all-Rocky Mountain Conference running back at Colorado College majoring in art history. It was Sabol who later wrote of the Raiders, “The autumn wind is a pirate, blustering in from sea,” words immortalized by Facenda. The Sabols’ advances included everything from reverse angle replays to filming pregame locker room speeches to setting highlights to pop music. “Today of course those techniques are so common it’s hard to imagine just how radical they once were,” Steve told the AP last year. “Believe me, it wasn’t always easy getting people to accept them, but I think it was worth the effort.” His efforts extended beyond his work as a producer, including appearances on screen and in public to promote NFL Films’ mission. An accomplished collage artist, Sabol exhibited at the ArtExpo in New York, the Avant Gallery in Miami, the Govinda Gallery in Washington, the Milan Gallery in Fort Worth, Texas, and the Garth Davidson Gallery in Moorestown, N.J. “Steve was a legend in this business — a dynamic, innovative leader who made NFL Films the creative force it is today,” ESPN President John Skipper said.

2012 CHASE CONTENDERS Points standings, race results from Sunday’s Geico 400 at Chicagoland Speedway 1. Brad Keselowski 2,056 (finished first) On a day in which five-time champion Jimmie Johnson started on the pole and led a race-high 172 laps, Keselowski showed that he’s a true title contender as he muscled ahead of Johnson after his final pit stop and motored away to a 3.17-second victory. It was his first-ever Chase race victory. 2. Jimmie Johnson -3 (finished second) He complained that Keselowski’s race-winning pass came too soon after he exited pit road (NASCAR says drivers can’t come up onto the track until Turn Two), but overall was pleased with the Chase opener. “Of course we would have loved to have won the race, but we’ll take second and go on. This is a fantastic way to start the Chase.” 3. Tony Stewart -8 (finished sixth) The defending series champion improved his starting spot by 23 positions on what he described as an off-day.“But if we can be a little bit off and end up with a top-10, then we are in good shape,” he said.

The Twitter track

NASCAR drivers discover power of social media

hroughout its history, NASCAR in general has been relatively slow to embrace new technology. It was only this year that Sprint Cup cars were equipped with electronic fuel injection, something that has been standard equipment on passenger cars for decades. The engines still have push rods to work the engine valves, a primitive system in today’s automotive world. But when it comes to communication, the sport and its drivers are at the forefront, especially when it comes to social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter. When Facebook became the social media rage a few years back, most drivers soon had pages, but in truth, most postings were done by the drivers’ publicists and administrative assistants. But when Twitter came along, drivers jumped onto the new medium as quickly as they would the latest shock absorber technology. Whether it’s because Twitter is quick, something that naturally appeals to professional speed merchants, or because it’s so effective, drivers have become regular posters on Twitter.com. After all, one can only post 140 characters at a time. Twitter was created in March of 2006 by Jack Dorsey and launched later that summer. As of earlier this year it had more than 500 million active users and they were posting 340 million tweets a day. It’s one of the top 10 sites on the Net in attracting visitors. NASCAR, its drivers, fans and the media got a real taste of the power of Twitter back in February when Brad Keselowski pulled his phone out of his pocket and started post-

ing on Twitter during a delay in the Daytona 500 caused when Juan Pablo Montoya crashed into a jet dryer and ignited a fire. Although some questioned the in-race communication by a driver, NASCAR officials seemed fine with his tweets. The tweets from Daytona, shown on the FOX TV broadcast, led to an additional 100,000 Twitter followers for Keselowski, who now is generally regarded as having something akin to a cult following when it comes to the Twitter world, where he is known as @Keselowski. “It’s a good cult to be a part of,” said Keselowski, who traces his interest in Twitter to getting an iPad from Nationwide Insurance when he won the Nationwide Series title. “It’s a group of people that enjoy having some of the further access that the sport has the capability of providing.” He said social media has great potential for NASCAR, and he’s proud to be out front in its development. “I feel very fortunate to have a role as a leader in the sports integration of social media, specifically through Twitter,” he said. Other drivers have begun to use Twitter. Even old-timers like Mark Martin are enthusiastic participants. And they’ve found that it works both as a way to disseminate information and as a way to get feedback. When officials at Bristol Motor Speedway were contemplating changing the racing surface at their track, Jeff Gordon polled his Twitter followers to gauge fan response. His followers told him that there were big-

ger issues than the configuration of the track. “My Twitter poll was that gas prices and hotel prices and the economy are the biggest reason why people are saving their money to come to the night race there and not able to travel as much as they used to and be able to incur some of the expenses that they used to,” he said. Gordon also used his Twitter account, @JeffGordonWeb, to let fans know he was keeping his promise to bring back his mustache if he made the Chase. This is what he posted Sunday morning after the regular season finale at Richmond: “So as many of u may have heard, I made a statement that if we made the Chase I wud bring back the stache. I’m a man of my word.” Earlier this year, Twitter itself recently teamed up with NASCAR in the social network’s first partnership with a sporting league. Omid Ashtari, who heads Twitter’s sports and entertainment practice, said Keselowski’s tweets from Daytona as well as one in which Jimmie Johnson shared a photo of Dale Earnhardt Jr. trying to tie his tie as they were headed to the White House, show how social media can give fans access they ordinarily wouldn’t have. A key part of the new partnership is promoting the hashtag of #NASCAR, which makes it easier for fans to find NASCARrelated postings. Keselowski said the most important aspect of his Twitter activity is that it allows him to meet fans he otherwise would never have any contact with. “It’s amazing the type of connections that you can have,” he said.

Youngest ever Truck Series winner ‘chip off old block’ Back in 1984, Dave Blaney became the youngest driver ever to win a USAC Silver Crown championship. Last Saturday, his son Ryan continued his family’s tradition of setting records by becoming the youngest driver ever to win a Camping World Truck Series race. Blaney, driving for Brad Keselowski Racing, won at age 18 years, eight months in just his third start in the series and just his 10th start in one of NASCAR’s top three divisions. His other seven have come in the Nationwide Series. Dave Blaney – who left a highly successful sprint car career to race in NASCAR – has just one win, at a Nationwide race at Charlotte in 2006, in 546 NASCAR starts. He was on hand for his son’s win on Saturday night at Iowa Speedway. “It’s unbelievable,” Blaney said of his son’s victory. “He does such a good job. Thanks to everybody that’s helped him, from Tommy Baldwin and especially Brad Keselowski, [Roger] Penske, everybody. “He does so good, and he catches on so quick, it’s fun to watch.” Ryan Blaney had to hold off veteran drivers on several late-race restarts, but never stumbled. “I knew if I could just have the lead through [Turns] One and Two, we would have had ’em,”

4. Denny Hamlin -15 (finished 16th) He was poised for a top-10 finish but ran out of fuel on the final lap. Still, he’s optimistic about his Chase chances. “We can make that up easily,” he said. “We’re fast enough to do that.” 5. Kasey Kahne -15 (finished third) Despite a good finish, he saw room for improvement. “I was lacking today and hopefully we can talk about it this week and get it better for some of these other 1.5-mile tracks,” he said. 6. Clint Bowyer -15 (finished 10th) He said his team didn’t perform at a championship level. “I don’t know whether it was strategy or pit stops or what, but it seemed like we lost spots on pit road all day, and it just cost us,” he said. “You ain’t going to win a championship with decent days, you have to have good days.” 7. Dale Earnhardt Jr. -17 (finished eighth) He had to start in the rear after his team changed engines because he inadvertently over-revved it during qualifying, and he never really recovered. “I was disappointed with myself in making the mistake with the engine and getting us that far back at the start of the race,” he said. 8. Greg Biffle -19 (finished 13th) A promising run turned lackluster at the finish. “We were really going good there at the end, and we did our last stop, and the car just went bad,” he said. 9. Martin Truex Jr. -21 (finished ninth) His team took a bad-handling car and made it much better as the race went on.“We made lots and lots and lots and lots of changes, big changes, and it just worked at the end,” he said. 10. Kevin Harvick -24 (finished 12th) His finishing position reflected the way he’s run all season, as his average finish for the first 27 races is 12.0. 11. Matt Kenseth -26 (finished 18th) His No. 17 Ford lost a shock midway through the race.His team replaced it,but he was unable to completely overcome the setback. “My car just wasn’t fast enough,” he said. 12. Jeff Gordon -47 (finished 35th) A stuck throttle while running fourth, and the resulting impact with the wall, ended his string of strong finishes that landed him in the Chase. It also put him in a deep points hole entering the second race of the title hunt.

Earnhardt seeks more sponsors

Ryan Blaney celebrates after winning Saturday’s American Ethanol 200 at Iowa Speedway. (NASCAR photo) Ryan Blaney said. “It’s unbelievable. I’ve got to thank Brad Keselowski for giving me this chance, and hopefully we get a few more.” The win was the first for Keselowski’s team in the Truck Series and particularly meaningful to the team’s crew chief, the veteran Doug Randolph. “It’s pretty neat to be here with Ryan and Dave, ’cause my first crew chiefing job was with Dave, and I felt like there were a lot of nights that we should have been sitting right here [in a winner’s interview], and it didn’t quite work out,” he said. “I felt like a couple of ’em got away, and it’s great to come full circle and make it happen with Ryan.” Blaney’s fellow drivers appreciated the moment as well. “Is that kid a chip off the old block?” third-finishing Todd Bodine said. “I think he’s better than his dad. That’s awesome. I’m happy for him and happy for Brad [Keselowski] and all of those guys. “I know how hard they’ve worked to get to this point.”

Dale Earnhardt Jr., NASCAR’s most popular driver, still has some races unsponsored for next season, but he said during his regular media appearance at Chicago that it’s not a sign that he’s not still popular with sponsoring companies. “We have more demand than we have supply pretty much,” he said. “We’ve got a good chunk of our races [sponsored], we have got the majority of the season with the [National] Guard, and then Diet Mountain Dew is going to back off a little bit and that makes it a bit of a challenge to fill that small of a gap.” He said small gaps in sponsorship are harder to fill than large ones. “Every sponsor on the car wants to be the top guy,” he said. “It’s a bit hard to have a top guy when you are trying to work with multiple sponsors. It’s just a little bit of a balancing act.”

Getting through life seems easier with ‘stayin’ pow’r’ BY JIMMY REED Columnist

Jaybird, my best friend and boyhood mentor, never read William Faulkner; he never even heard of him. And, besides, he couldn’t read. But he would have agreed with what Faulkner said when he stood before royalty, dignitaries and scholars in Stockholm, Sweden and gave his Nobel Prize acceptance speech. Toward the end of that speech, the great novelist said, “I decline to accept the end of man … I believe that man will not merely endure; he will prevail.” Jaybird’s field-hand vocabulary didn’t contain the words “endure” and “prevail”; for him, they would have come under the heading of “stayin’ pow’r.” “Boy, you got no stayin’ pow’r,” he’d say, when I began whining toward the end of a long day of chopping cotton. “I’m old enough to be yo’ greatgranddaddy and dis ignunt stick ain’t got de best o’ me. You jes’ a sissy. Be tough; take what life throws on you and shake it off. When dat ole sun draps down and teches de ground, we’ll go to the house. Now git to hoeing.” The beloved old black man would have loved the following story, and because he refused to give in to what life tossed on him, would have understood it better than anyone. It was a Saturday, and as was their wont, Clyde Rakestraw and his wife Ophelia planned to go to town to purchase their weekly supplies. The old farmer fetched the small, two-wheeled wagon out of the barn and called for Jeremiah, his faithful donkey. In response, he got a long, mournful bray that sounded as if it

came from a cave. Continuing to call, he finally found the animal. It had fallen into an abandoned cistern. Staring down at the sad creature staring up at him, he realized there was no way to get him out. “Ophelia, that donkey is old, and probably wouldn’t be much good to us a whole lot longer anyway,” he said. “Besides, I’ve been meaning to fill up that old cistern and this is a good time to do it. Let’s get the neighbors to help, and we’ll just shovel dirt into the cistern and bury him.” Soon, the men folk were tossing spades of dirt down on the donkey, whose brays got more and more piteous. After a while, though, they noticed Jeremiah had quieted down. Assuming the donkey had given up the ghost, Clyde looked down, and was amazed at what he saw. The animal was almost at ground level! Every time a shovel full of dirt hit his back, he would shake it off, and the dirt rose steadily beneath him. Soon, he stepped out of the cistern and trotted off. The story contains an obvious moral: To prevail, human beings must endure, a reality Nelson Mandela understood when he said. “After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.” Jaybird taught me to keep climbing those hills. He knew what I needed to get through life: stayin’ pow’r.

Students urged to seek spots in U.S. Senate Youth Program Special to the Daily Corinthian

WASHINGTON, D.C. — With the start of the 2012-2013 school year in Mississippi, U.S. Senators Thad Cochran (R-Miss.) and Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) are encouraging eligible Mississippi high school students to consider applying for the 2013 U.S. Senate Youth Program (USSYP). The nomination process has begun to select two Mississippi high school students to take part in the 51st annual USSYP Washington Week, a program established by the Senate in 1962 to expose student leaders to the federal government and the U.S

Senate. The nominations deadline for Mississippi students is Sept. 28. High school students who are seniors or juniors and who are involved in student government at public or private schools are eligible for the weeklong program to be held March 9-16, 2013 in Washington, D.C. The selection process is based, in part, on academic achievement, leadership capabilities and public service. “The U.S. Senate Youth Program is well-established and will give two Mississippi students an excellent chance to learn more about government and public service. This rigorous educational program allows a unique educational experience for our

nation’s high school students,” Cochran said. “This is an opportunity to recognize two Mississippi students who have demonstrated an ability to lead early on,” said Wicker. “Public service is a critical component of our democracy, and we must continue to educate young men and women who will be future leaders in their communities.” The Hearst Foundation, which fully funds and administers the USSYP, will provide each delegate with a $5,000 undergraduate scholarship and a trip to Washington. While in the nation’s capital, the selected Mississippi students will join delegates from each state, the District of Columbia, and

the Department of Defense Education Activity. The USSYP Washington Week program includes meetings with a Supreme Court justice, U.S. senators, cabinet secretaries and other policy makers. Mississippi’s 2012 Senate Youth Program delegates were Michael Wilkerson of Wilkinson County and Elizabeth Wicks of Ocean Springs. Interested students may visit www.ussenateyouth. org to access a brochure outlining the rules and selection process. Students may also contact their high school principal or the state-level selection administrator Cecily McNair. The state’s 2013 delegates will be announced in midDecember.

September is

National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month

TWENTY-THREE MILLION AMERICAN CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS ARE OBESE OR OVERWEIGHT. THESE KIDS RISK GROWN-UP HEALTH RELATED PROBLEMS SUCH AS HEART DISEASE, DIABETES, STROKE AND CANCER. THE COST? MORE THAN 14 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. As America wrangles daunting issues, no challenge is more urgent than protecting the health and wellbeing of our children—now, and as they grow.

Over the past several decades we have witnessed childhood obesity grow to epidemic proportions. More than 23 million children and teenagers are obese or overweight. That’s roughly one child in every three. Some groups are disproportionately affected.

These youngsters risk developing serious health problems in adulthood, such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke and several types of cancer. The financial impact is a sobering $14 billion per year in direct health care costs alone. The psychosocial consequences can hinder these kids academically and socially. You can help: join our community in observing National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month this September. Parents, health care providers, educators, civic leaders and organizations can create programs and activities to promote healthy eating and physical activity. The effort begins at home. Parents have enormous influence over their children’s lifestyles by the example they set and the decisions they make. By modeling healthy eating and physically active lifestyles, we can set our children on the road to a lifetime of good habits. The fight against childhood obesity gains momentum in September, and the results can last a lifetime. All children deserve a healthy start in life; it’s our responsibility to make that possible.

Depending on the type, the fries might be a little more creamy (when made with many waxy and new potatoes) or more fluffy (when made with banana fingerlings, blue or purple potatoes).

Q You can boil the potatoes up to a few days in advance, then refrigerate them until youâ€™re ready to fry (perfect when planning ahead for company). Q A neutral oil â€” canola, vegetable or peanut â€” works just fine for frying, bringing out the rich flavor of the potatoes themselves. But feel free to be inventive. Lard is magical, and bacon fat is downright divine. And if you can find duck fat, I promise youâ€™ll never want to fry in any other fat again. Itâ€™s the frying fat of the gods.

Persian shield works well for fall months

Persian shield’s distinctive, bright green veins and vibrant purple leaves add visual interest to the landscape.

Foliage plants with unusual color combinations, such as Persian shield, help combination containers transition from summer to autumn.

Persian shield requires full sun to develop bold colors and will fade if planted in the shade. Photos by MSU Extension Service/Gary Bachman

As we move into fall, I’ve been paying attention to the combination containers that have looked Gary so good Bachman t h r o u g h the sumSouthern m e r Gardening months. Many of the flowering plants have started to fade. Colorful foliage plants can now transition from supporting roles to the stars of the containers. One foliage plant in particular has been a standout lately. Persian shield, which is known botanically as Stobilanthes dyerianus, is typically considered a houseplant. But when added to a combination container, it has a lot of potential as a landscape plant. Persian shield’s elliptically shaped leaves can be up to eight inches long. The foliage is shades of purple, pink, and silver and has an iridescent sheen. wMorning sun is best for color development, but I have seen combination containers with a western exposure that have been absolutely breathtaking. Prominent bright green veins that contrast with the other colors are particularly attractive. Persian shield likes to grow in a well-drained potting mix or landscape soil. For best growth, the soil needs to be consistently moist, whether in a container or in the landscape. Applying a water-soluble fertilizer every other week will keep growth vigorous and steady. If you prefer, you can apply a monthly dose of 14-14-14 or a similar controlled-release fertilizer. At times, Persian shield may appear to be getting a little leggy. It can reach as high as four feet if left alone. Don’t be afraid to do a bit of corrective pruning. This plant will respond well, and a little trimming will keep growth bushy and dense. Because Persian shield is typically grown as a houseplant, it will overwinter very well. You could repot the plant and move it inside for the winter months. But if the plant is big, this method may be a little cumbersome in small indoor spaces. Another easy way to overwinter Persian shield is to take cuttings. Remove four to six inches of growth from the end of a stem. Place in a glass of water on your windowsill, and roots will soon form. When transplanting cuttings into a small container, use good potting mix. While it’s late in the year to be planting combination containers, consider using Persian shield in at least one of your combination containers for next year and after. (Dr. Gary Bachman is an assistant Extension research professor of horticulture at the Coastal Research and Extension Center in Biloxi.)

The colors are more prominent when the plant is exposed to lots of light and are muted when it is planted in the shade.

Little-boy flasher tries to cover up his exposure DEAR ABBY: My daughter â€œAnissaâ€? is 3 and has an older cousin, â€œBilly,â€? on my fianceâ€™s side who is 5. Billy has been caught on several occasions showing his â€œmanhoodâ€? to little girls, and we recently found out he took Anissa into a popup tent and showed her as well. This was not on my watch, because I donâ€™t feel comfortable leaving them alone together. After I learned about the incident, I was told that Billy had done this with another cousin and told her it was a â€œsecretâ€? and not to tell. Abby, as far as I know, Billy was spoken to at great length and repri-

manded after the first few occurrences, but he continues to do this, it Abigail seems, at Van Buren every opportunity Dear Abby he gets. Is this normal behavior for boys? I think the parents are burying their heads in the sand. They get defensive when the subject is brought up. Personally, all I can do is keep Anissa within armâ€™s reach when Billy is around. What do you think? -- NOT ON MY WATCH DEAR NOT: I think

thatâ€™s intelligent. Although children are naturally curious when they learn thereâ€™s a difference between boys and girls (hence the genesis of playing â€œdoctorâ€?), Billy appears to be overly preoccupied. Because he is telling the girls to keep what heâ€™s doing a secret, he knows he is doing something wrong. Repeated naughty actions can be corrected only if there are consequences for them, and it appears a lengthy talking-to and a reprimand havenâ€™t gotten through to the child. DEAR ABBY: I need your assistance resolving an awkward situation. I have noticed other women

experiencing â€œwardrobe malfunctions.â€? In each instance, they were otherwise tastefully dressed but seemingly unaware of the sheerness of their clothing. For example, one was wearing white slacks through which the patterned fabric of her underwear could be seen clearly. Is there a polite way to alert them of the problem, or is it better to say nothing? Most of these women were strangers, but I couldnâ€™t think of tactful wording even when it happened to a friend. -- JUST TRYING TO HELP DEAR JUST TRYING: If itâ€™s a friend, say,

â€œHoney, I can see the pattern of your underwear through your slacks,â€? and it will probably be appreciated. However, if itâ€™s a stranger, keep your comment to yourself because it probably wonâ€™t be. DEAR ABBY: My late partner and I had matching wedding rings, as we had a civil marriage. Since my partnerâ€™s death, I have met someone else. We have become a couple and also want to have a civil same-sex marriage. Do you think it would be wrong to use the same wedding rings I had with my first partner? Iâ€™m not sure how I feel about it and need some input. -ALLEN IN FLORIDA

DEAR ALLEN: Far more important than what I think about it is what your significant other thinks. Personally, I would â€œretireâ€? the rings from your former marriage and start with new ones because itâ€™s a new relationship. While no rule of etiquette says there is anything wrong with using the old ones, this really isnâ€™t a question of etiquette. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

edgeable will get you more. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You donâ€™t learn to swim by jumping off of a high dive and seeing what happens. Putting your face in the water should come first. Likewise, your current project is best addressed in stages. TODAYâ€™S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 19). You go into this year in a state of

alertness, arming yourself with the information and preparation to deal with whatever comes. Because youâ€™re so ready, a posse will be honored to join you on your journey. A potential love is among them. The most romantic times are in October, December and June. Aquarius and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 2, 31, 59 and 18.

Horoscopes There are but a few days left in the Virgo solar transit of 2012, and the planets rally around her with all the fanfare of jeweled, feathered Ziegfeld dancers in the elaborate final act of the Follies. Pluto goes direct; Uranus squares Pluto; Mercury opposes Uranus and then squares Pluto. The elegant choreography deserves a standing ovation. ARIES (March 21-April 19). What you do is likely to start a trend with those around you and beyond. This is an excellent reason to check your actions, attitudes and behaviors to be sure they are the ones you would like to see repeated. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You see the people around you as individuals instead of strangers. This has a favorable

impact on your comfort level in public. Every time you get a smile out of someone, youâ€™ll be increasingly at ease. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). â€œIntentionalityâ€? means you enter an interaction with an awareness of your purpose. Having or not having intentionality will change your fate. Before you walk out the door, review your intentions. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The project thatâ€™s been simmering on the backburner now becomes the meaty main course. Youâ€™ll change key elements of your plan in order to accommodate this delicious new dish. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may deal with an intimidating presence. Remember that everyone is trying to address basic needs: food, shelter and

fitting in with the group, which could otherwise be thought of as â€œprotection.â€? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Just as a gym membership at a gym you never go to is a waste, so is any affiliation with a group in which you donâ€™t participate. Youâ€™ll demonstrate your care through active involvement. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Ideally, you make your own emotional weather, but sometimes you need a little help from outside elements. You are more likely to slip into a good mood when you go where other people are laughing. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Shared experience bonds you with your colleagues. This is humanity at its best: belonging to one another in some

intangible but very real way. Youâ€™ll always have this commonality. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You canâ€™t be â€œthereâ€? and â€œhereâ€? at the same time. In order to progress, you have to risk something, to get your feet off of â€œhereâ€? and move. There is no other way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Much could be accomplished if you were to join forces with people who think like you. But do you know anyone like that? Investigate in forums where youâ€™re likely to find kindred spirits. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Money: How you spend it and what it gets you will be the theme. You may feel that youâ€™re not getting a good value for your dollar, and youâ€™re on to something. Investigate. Being knowl-
