Kimberly-Clark, schools partner in germ fight BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Kimberly-Clark Professional is ready to take down germs. The Corinth Mill began a partnership with Biggersville Elementary and High School to reduce sickness spread through germs as part of The Healthy Schools Project. “Kimberly-Clark Professional strives to make a better work-
place and school,” said KC’s Chris Chapman. “We give our all every day to keep everyone safe.” BES and BHS were the overwhelming choice of mill employees to be the host sites of the project. Both schools were installed with paper towel and toilet paper dispensers along with hand sanitizer products. The schools will receive
the products at no cost for six months. “We will come out monthly and see how things are going,” said Chapman. “Videos will also be done to see how well the program works.” According to a video shown to Biggersville students on Wednesday, about 25 percent Please see GERMS | 2

A mother and her son remain in the Alcorn County Jail following a drug arrest. The Alcorn Narcotics Unit arrested the pair on Tuesday night at 402 Young Street. “Officers found numerous pills and several bags of marijuana after serving the occupants with a search warrant,” said the unit’s Darrell Hopkins. Versia Vernell Scruggs, 47, of 402 North Young Street, and Christopher Derne Scruggs, 28, of the same ad-
dress, were both taken into custody. “The subjects have been selling marijuana out of the house for the past several months,” said Hopkins. “Neighbors voiced their complaints with the Sheriff’s Department and an investigation ensued.” Versia Scruggs was charged with possession of hydrocodone and conspiracy to sell marijuana. Chris Scruggs faces charges of possession of marijuana with intent to sell and conspiracy to sell marijuana. Please see DRUGS | 2
Injured school superintendent returns to work after wreck BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
Prentiss County Superintendent Randle Downs was welcomed with hugs and handshakes Tuesday as he attended his first regular meeting of the county school board since being severely injured earlier this summer in a traffic accident that claimed the life of the district’s transportation and curriculum coordinator and also injured another top administrator. Downs has not returned to full-time duty but is working in
the office a few hours a week as his health and recovery allow, he said. Wheeler School Principal Todd Swinney continues to serve as interim superintendent as Downs recovers. The superintendent was seriously injured in an Aug. 22 crash that killed district curriculum and transportation coordinator Jason McKinney and also injured the district’s federal programs director Luke Ledbetter. Ledbetter returned to work several weeks ago. A Corinth man, 19-year-old Dylan G. King, has been charged with
leaving the scene of an accident where a death occurred and two counts of leaving the scene of an accident. McKinney was remembered warmly during Tuesday’s board meeting as the district presented a plaque to Marietta Elementary School principal Cathy Trimble in recognition of her school’s second year to rank as a Star School, the highest rating awarded in the state. Board member Steve Taylor told the crowd of teachers gathered for the presentation that the ranking is a testament to
the hard work and dedication of them, the parents, the administration and everyone in the district. Taylor also noted the district itself jumped to high performing, the second highest possible rating and every school in the district saw improvements including Hills Chapel and New Site which also achieved a high performing ranking. “You just don’t know how proud we are of all of you,” Taylor said. The plaque honoring Marietta’s accomplishment included a
dedication to McKinney in recognition of his dedication in the role of curriculum coordinator in pushing everyone in the district to achieve more and be the best they can be. “Jason pushed you all to the limit,” said Taylor. “If he hadn’t have pushed all of us, we’d never have done it.” Trimble accepted the plaque with words of praise for her entire staff, saying everyone at the school played a vital role in the success.

‘You Can’t Take It With You’ comedy hits playhouse stage BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Theatre-Arts production of the comedy “You Can’t Take It With You” takes the stage Friday night. The play is the story of what happens when two young members of seemingly incompatible families, the Scyamores and the Kirbys, fall in love. This classic comedy by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman was originally performed in 1936 and won the 1937 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. “This play is very family centric and a great expression of love for those that also make us crazy,” explained Artistic Director Cristina Skinner. Iuka’s Rebekah Petty, a CT-A veteran, plays the role of Essie,
a girl who loves ballet but whose real talent is in making candy. “It’s been really fun getting to be in this play with a lot of people I’ve been in productions with before,” said Petty. “We have a really good time.” The play is the first CT-A production for 15-year-old Alcorn Central student Gracie Smith. Her character doesn’t make an appearance until the second act, but Smith said she’s enjoyed working with the CT-A regulars during the twice-weekly rehearsals. “It’s been a really cool experience. Everybody is so funny and crazy,” said Smith, who “definitely” intends to be part of future CT-A productions. Staff photo by Bobby J. Smith

Colorful Corinth man injured in accidental fire BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com
Prayers throughout the community are being offered up after one of Corinth’s most colorful town characters was badly injured in an accidental fire about 9 a.m. Wednes-
day morning. The burn victim was identified as 89-yearold Bill McPeters of Polk Street, according to a spokesperson from McPeters Funeral Directors. McPeters was flown via Air Evac after the ac-
cident to the Burn Unit at Crossgates River Oaks Hospital in Brandon. He remained in stable condition late Wednesday afternoon, according to the spokesperson, who requested prayers on behalf of the family.
McPeters, known for giving spontaneous gifts to those around him and wearing bright-colored hats, shoes, ties and belts, has always been a key community figure and director for McPeters Funeral Directors. The funeral home
has been in the McPeters family since 1905. He turns 90 in February. McPeters wife Judy was en route Wednesday to be with him at the burn unit. She sent word she would contact the newspaper and provide an
update Thursday on her husband’s condition and progress. Corinth Fire Department First Responders, Corinth Police Department and Magnolia EMS all responded Wednesday to offer assistance.

of the population goes to school or college every day, and their germs go right along with them. When a sick student touches a doorknob, keyboard, desk or other surface, they leave behind germs that can live up to 48 hours, infecting others. “This demonstrates what a great community partner Kimberly-Clark is and how much they want our school system to be successful,” said Alcorn Superintendent of Education Gina Smith. The Healthy Schools Project goes beyond the restroom to provide sustainable, hygienic product solutions for classrooms, cafeterias, common areas -- all the places students take germs. The goal of taking down germs and then passing it on is a simple one. Youngsters can be part of the super germ fighting team when they wash, wipe and sanitize. “To do well, students have to be well,” said Chapman to the elementary students. “Being part of the project is a positive for Biggersville … it’s all about learning to stay healthy for the students and teachers,” said BES Principal Chris Butler. “By Kimberly-Clark supplying these products, we can take the money that we normally spend and put it somewhere else in education.” Thirteen KC employees were on hand to officially kickoff the project. Technician Wanda McNair was the one that really stepped up and promoted the Biggersville campus for the program, according to Chapman.
An older member of the cast is Randy Duke, who plays the role of Martin Vanderhof. Duke lived in Corinth “many years ago,” he said, and returned to make his home in Corinth after living and working for many years in Middleton, Tenn. Duke described the process of working on a comedy as a series of discoveries during rehearsals. “People come up with ideas, and if everybody laughs we put it in the rehearsal,” explained Duke. “It’s a collaboration and we have fun. When you work on a production with people you become like a family.” The cast of “You Can’t Take It With You” includes: Glynis Bradshaw (Penelope Sycamore), John Petty (Paul Sycamore), Rebekah Petty (Essie), Leland Hendrix (Ed), Jenny Jordan (Rheba), David Maxedon (Donald), Danny O’Day (Mr. de Pinna), Randy Duke (Martin Vanderhof,

the doctor could arrive. He noted the highway patrol has a policy of not putting down animals involved in accidents, but will normally let the owner deal with the situation or contact an appropriate professional to assist in this type of case.

Problem solving: Work with what you have BY BRYAN GOLDEN In a perfect world, you would have all the resources you needed when you needed them. However, our world is imperfect and you have to work with what you have. A perfect example of this philosophy is a sailor experiencing some equipment malfunction while at sea. The sailor has to deal with the problem when it occurs. He has to utilize any available means. Wishing for something he doesn’t have wastes time while accomplishing nothing. The sailor must be creative. Survival is paramount and time is often of the essence. The same criteria apply to anyone lost or stranded in the wilderness. Anything they can find may prove useful. Even items normally thrown away as garbage become invaluable. People survive by harnessing their willpower and imagination to approach their situation from many different perspectives. Although, most people facing obstacles are not confronting life threatening situations, developing a mindset that enables you to work with what you have on hand is essential for success. Opportunities are missed due to inaction. Inaction results from waiting for ideal conditions. “Paralysis by analysis” occurs when you never make a decision to act because you are consumed analyzing and reanalyzing your situation. While you are lamenting the resources you don’t have, wishing they would miraculously appear, opportunity is passing you by as you squander time. Before you can work with what you have, you need an inventory of what’s available to you. You’ll probably be surprised at how much more you have to work with than you realize. In itemizing your inventory, be sure to list everything, regardless of how small or insignificant. List all of your determination, desire, skills, knowledge, education, financial resources, savings, and credit lines. Enumerate people you know who might be able to help with knowledge, skills, or support. Make a list of all of your income and expenses. Analyze your inventory creatively. For example, you may not have money for a product or service you need but you may be able to barter. The key to working with what you have is to focus your mind on finding a solution rather than becoming discouraged by obstacles. Thinking outside the box empowers you to get the most from what you have. Throughout history, individuals who have become successful have shown a knack for getting the most from what they have, even turning disadvantages into advantages. Helen Keller is a perfect example of what can be accomplished when a person works with what they have. Although deaf and blind since she was 18 months old, Helen was able to lead a full and productive life. She graduated from college in 1904 at the age of 24. It was certainly uncommon for a woman to go to college at that time, let alone one without hearing or sight. Thomas Edison didn’t learn to read until he was 12. Additionally he was a poor writer. Ludwig van Beethoven, the composer, lost his hearing in his 20’s. What do John D. Rockefeller, Abraham Lincoln, Dave Thomas, founder of Wendy’s, and Walt Disney have in common? None of them had a college degree. The above examples show just a few of the people who worked with what they had. They never made excuses for failure because something was lacking in their life. Your accomplishments will be based on what you have. Nothing will ever be accomplished with something you don’t have. So take stock of your personal inventory and start putting all of your assets to work. Don’t wait. Start today because time goes by too fast.

Prayer for today Lord, I thank you for the many times you gave me help, always listening when I called. In my darkest moments you were always at my side. Amen.
A verse to share He said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest. — Ezekiel 37:3 (KJV)
Worth quoting The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself. — Benjamin Franklin
Revenue scramble for highways creates Texas-size choices STARKVILLE — Earlier this year, I wrote about Republican Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall’s lone wolf effort to focus attention on the fact that this state’s infrastructure revenue stream won’t keep pace with the demand for highway construction and maintenance at current and future costs. As it turns out, Hall isn’t alone and he’s far from the only Republican talking about increased revenue for infrastructure needs. Mississippi isn’t the only state facing an infrastructure crisis at a time when tax dollars to build and maintain roads are hard to come by – and the scarcity of resources is leading a number of conservatives toward strategies that either raise taxes and fees or substantially redirect existing revenues. Over in Texas, two strategies have been reported that address the highway funding problem. First, there is the proposal that would raise the state’s vehicle registration fee by $50 — which would essentially double the present costs — with the
funds totally earmarked for highways. That strategy would raise an estimated $1.2 billion Sid Salter annually. Advocates Columnist claim that the additional fee revenue can be leveraged into some $15 million by selling bonds. Another Texas initiative designed to address the new for new highway construction and maintenance revenues is an effort to dedicate the existing state sales taxes collected on the sale of vehicles. Who among Texas movers and shakers are pushing such alternatives? Republicans and business groups are among the leading voices for facing the infrastructure funding shortfalls with new revenues. As in Mississippi, the primary existing sources of revenue for road building and maintenance in Texas are federal and state gas taxes, but those revenues have not kept pace with rising costs and have
been further diminished by increased fuel efficiency in modern vehicles. The parallels are obvious. Texas taxpayers pay a combined 38.4 cents per gallon in federal and state sales taxes. Texas state gas taxes are 20 cents per gallon and trail the national average state sales tax on gas by 9.7 cents per gallon. Mississippi’s state sales tax on gas is 18.4 cents per gallon (CPG) and is a flat tax. When we pay $2 a gallon for gas at the pump, the tax is 18.4 CPG. When we pay $4 per gallon at the pump, the state tax is still 18.4 CPG. The only way the state takes in more revenue in gas taxes is for the overall volume of gas consumed to increase. The state’s 18.4 CPG gas tax was last raised in 1987. According to a report by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the state’s flat gas tax isn’t keeping pace with the inflation of rising highway construction and maintenance costs and with the modern fuel economy improvements in today’s vehicles. Hall says the ASCE report
makes clear that Mississippi has an estimated $30 billion in highway and bridge needs between 2008 and 2035. But even in a “best-case scenario,” the state’s current gas tax structure would only generate $15.3 billion to meet those expenses. In Mississippi, drivers pay total federal and state taxes of 37.2 cents per gallon of gasoline and 43.2 cents per gallon of diesel. Mississippi’s excise tax totals 18.4 CPG on gasoline and diesel, with 0.4 cents going to an environmental protection fee. In coastal Hancock, Harrison and Jackson counties, there is an additional 3 CPG seawall tax. Dick Hall may be bucking some Republicans, but his math is solid. Like those in Texas and a host of other states, Mississippi lawmakers face difficult choices on the state’s revenue stream to fund road maintenance and construction.

Second debate shows voters focusing on facts In form, President Obama came back strongly in Tuesday’s debate with Mitt Romney, but substantively he continues to lag behind the Republican candidate. That’s because the president has a record to defend and it isn’t a good one. Television being what it is, the president looked and sounded good, but the air seems to have gone out of his messianic balloon as voters focus more on facts and less on spin. If promises mean anything -- and they don’t to most politicians -- Romney hit the president where it hurts: on his failure to live up to most of his promises. The president claimed his administration has “created” 5 million jobs. Romney countered that an equal number of jobs have been lost. He also noted correctly that government doesn’t create jobs; the private sector does and because of the uncertainty over the effects of Obamacare and whether tax cuts will be allowed to expire and new ones imposed, businesses are reluctant to hire people. Romney mentioned the promises candidate Obama

Romney said one in six Americans now live in poverty, 47 million are on food stamps, economic growth is where it was when Obama took office and the president’s “apology tour” has not made us safer. The president tried to replay his class warfare script, asking the wealthy to “pay a little bit more” in taxes, but even if all their wealth were seized, it wouldn’t run the government for long. Spending is the problem and Romney missed an opportunity to focus on wasteful spending, as detailed in Republican Senator Tom Coburn’s new “Waste Book,” which relays in agonizing detail the waste of taxpayer dollars. The president, clearly worried about recent polls
showing an erosion of support among women, brought up the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which guarantees, according to the White House, “that victims of pay discrimination can effectively challenge unequal pay.” But even the White House is not immune to claims of dispensing unequal pay. According to a report published in April by the Washington Free Beacon, “the 2011 annual report on White House staff revealed that the median annual salary for female White House employees was 18 percent less than male employees -- $60,000 compared to $71,000.” In 2008, Deroy Murdock of the Scripps Howard News Service determined from online Senate salary records posted by the watchdog group LegiStorm, that Sen. Obama paid female staffers in his office “...just 83 cents for every dollar” made by men. The president said he called the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi “acts of terror” in Rose Garden remarks “the day after the attack,” which is true. However, Washington Post

fact-checker Glenn Kessler wrote that the president did not say “terrorism” in those remarks and that “it took the administration days to concede that it was an ‘act of terrorism’” unrelated to the “Innocence of Muslims” video that he, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice initially and repeatedly claimed incited the attackers. After the debate, moderator Candy Crowley said on CNN, “(the administration) spent two weeks telling us this was about a tape and that there was this riot outside the Benghazi consulate, which there wasn’t.” When voters are considering whether to “fire” a president, they want to know if the one they might hire is up to the job. The first two debates show Romney is up to the job. The final debate on Oct. 22 is on foreign policy. It will give Romney an opportunity to close the sale with voters. The president’s record on that subject is no better than his record on the economy. (Readers may e-mail Daily Corinthian columnist Cal Thomas at tmseditors@tribune.com.)

State Briefs Vote time extended for some in military
Consumers getting settlement notices
JACKSON (AP) — Military or overseas voters from three Mississippi counties are getting more time to submit ballots for next month’s election. Hinds, Jefferson Davis and Pontotoc counties missed a Sept. 22 deadline to transmit ballots to military members or U.S. citizens living overseas. Federal law says ballots must be sent to those groups at least 45 days before an election. The election for president, U.S. House and Senate and some state judicial races is Nov. 6. Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann says Wednesday that his office is setting a new deadline of Nov. 10 for the military and overseas ballots from the three counties to be submitted. The U.S. Justice Department gave permission for the later deadline. Because of Mississippi’s history of discrimination, it needs federal approval for changes in voting procedures.
JACKSON (AP) — Officials say they’re sending out notices to Mississippi residents who might have overpaid for e-books and are eligible for a share of a nationwide settlement. Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood says the state is getting $407,823 of the $69 million settlement with publishers Hachette, HarperCollins and Simon & Shuster. Officials say the money will be paid to consumers who bought electronic books from the publishers between April 1, 2010, and May 21. Consumers who bought from Sony, Google or some minor distributors may need to return their claim forms by Dec. 12. Prosecutors say several publishers conspired to increase e-book prices for all consumers and to eliminate e-book price competition.
American Civil Liberties Union demanded Wednesday that a south Mississippi school stop holding prayers and promoting religious activities at games and other events. A letter from the ACLU to West Lincoln Attendance Center says the school in Lincoln County, with about 650 students from prekindergarten through 12th grade, violates the U.S. Constitution by incorporating prayer and other religious messages into school functions. Lincoln County School District Superintendent Terry Brister told The Associated Press that religious activities aren’t allowed at public schools, but he wants to find out if it’s happening and to
what extent before commenting further or responding to the ACLU.
2 Jackson ex-police officers plead guilty JACKSON (AP) — Two former Jackson police officers have pleaded guilty to accepting bribes from undercover FBI agents. A news release from the U.S. attorney’s office says Monyette Quintel Jefferson and Terence Dale Jenkins pleaded guilty Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Jackson. They were charged with taking bribes from FBI agents they thought were drug dealers. Sentencing is Jan. 7. They were arraigned in March with another officer, Anthony Ricardo

Hearing scheduled in church dispute OXFORD (AP) — U.S. District Judge Michael Mills was to hear arguments Thursday in Oxford on why he should stop the city of Holly Springs from preventing a church from relocating to the downtown square. Opulent Life Church and its supporters, including the Texas-based Liberty Institute, claimed several restrictions in
the ordinance were unconstitutional because they are unequally applied to churches. In January, Mills has denied the church’s request to stop the city from enforcing part of its zoning ordinance. The church appealed. While the case was on appeal, the city enacted a revised ordinance that banned churches from operating in the central square In September, a 5th U.S. Circuit of Appeals ruled against the city and sent the case back to Mills for consideration of an injunction.

Violent crimes rose 18 percent in 2011 WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of violent crimes unexpectedly rose by 18 percent in the United States last year, the government said Wednesday, the first time that total has risen in nearly 20 years. Property crimes went up by 11 percent, their first increase in a decade. Academic experts cautioned that the new figures do not necessarily signal an end to the long era of declining crime. The increase in violent crime was the result of an upward swing in assaults, which rose 22 percent, from 4 million in 2010 to 5 million last year. The incidence of rape, sexual assault and robbery remained largely unchanged, as did serious violent crime involving weapons or injury. The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics said the percentage increases last year were so large primarily because the 2011 crime totals were compared to historically low levels of crime in 2010. Violent crime has fallen by 65 percent since 1993, from 16.8 million to 5.8 million last year. Property crime in 2011 was up for the first time in a decade, from 15.4 million in 2010 to 17 million, according to the bureau’s annual national crime victimization survey. Household burglaries rose 14 percent, from 3.2 million to 3.6 million. The number of thefts jumped by 10 percent, from 11.6 million to 12.8 million. “2011 may be worse than 2010, but it was also the second-best in recent history,” said Northeastern University criminology professor James Alan Fox.
Legal path for Cubans still complicated WASHINGTON (AP) — Cuba’s surprise decision to make it easier for citizens to leave the country doesn’t mean Cubans can book tickets on commercial planes and head for Miami. Would-be immigrants and tourists still need permission from the U.S. government to enter America legally. With a multiyear wait for a visa, the average Cuban may not be leaving home any time soon. “This may end up being ado about nothing,” said a Cuban-immigration expert, Jose Azel of the University of Miami’s Institute for Cu-
ban and Cuban American Studies. A State Department spokeswoman, Victoria Nuland, said Tuesday that the U.S. welcomes “any reforms that’ll allow Cubans to depart from and return to their country freely. We remain committed to the migration accords under which our two countries support and promote safe, legal and orderly migration. Our own visa requirements remain unchanged.” Under those 1994 accords, Washington agreed to stop allowing Cubans caught at sea to enter the U.S. In 1995 the U.S. government began its “wetfoot, dry-foot” policy that allows anyone who makes it to shore to stay, while those caught at sea are turned back.
Big turnout forecast as early voting begins NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Early voting started Wednesday for the Nov. 6 presidential election and Tennessee election officials are anticipating another record turnout. “Typically every four years a new record is set,” said Secretary of State Tre Hargett. “If history is any indication, it will be a record-setting election.” In November 2008, there were about 1.5 million early voters in Tennessee. Early voting this year ends Nov. 1. Before going to the polls, election officials are reminding voters to adhere to a new state law and have governmentissued photo identification when they arrive at the polls. Individuals who don’t have a proper ID can vote provisionally. Voter Magaela Bethune made sure she had the proper information before she arrived at her polling place. “I came prepared,” said the 27-year-old Vanderbilt University graduate student. “And that did make the process go smoother.” David Adams believes the overall early voting period is beneficial, particularly for individuals like himself who may not be around Election Day. The 33-year-old Nashville financial planner is going out of the country for a few weeks. “It’s very convenient; I would definitely encourage people to do it,” Adams said. “That way if you get to the actual voting day and something happens ... you know that you got
BAPTISM IS IMPORTANT Different religious groups view baptism in many different ways. It must be important because it is mentioned many times in the new testament. One is not saved prior to baptism, but when one is baptized. The Jews were taught to be baptized for the remission of sins… “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost” (Acts 2:38). Baptism is important because it is a command of God and all of God’s commands are important. Jesus commanded, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”(Matt 28:19). “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” (Mark 16:16). Peter commanded the household of Cornelius to be baptized. “And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord” ... (Acts 10:48). All who love the Lord will respect and obey all commandments. “If ye love me, keep my commandments” ( John 14:15). Baptism puts one into Christ, His death and His body, the church. “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death” (Rom 63)? The saved are in Christ where all spiritual blessings are. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Eph 1 :3). Only those baptized into Christ, His death and His body, the church have been cleansed from sin by the precious blood of Christ. Peter said that baptism saves, “The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Pet 3:21). All who want to be saved will accept what the Bible teaches about baptism. Baptism is important, because in baptism we reach the saving blood of Christ (Rom 6:3).

your vote in early.” Carl Maxwell agreed. “I think it makes it a lot easier on the people voting, and on the people who have to run the election,” said the 66-year-old Nashville retiree.
Obama and Romney push for female votes CHESAPEAKE, Va. (AP) — President Barack Obama on Wednesday ridiculed challenger Mitt Romney’s debate description of receiving “binders full of women,” while the GOP nominee said the incumbent’s policies have failed female voters. The two bounded out of their quarrelsome Tuesday night debate on an intensified search for voters who will swing the election, with a particular focus on women. Democrats criticized Romney’s answers during the debate on gender pay equity and how he recruited women to his administration as governor of Massachusetts. Romney said he went to “a number of women’s groups and said, ‘Can you help us find folks?’ And they brought us whole binders full of women.” The comment became an instant trend on social media networks, spawning parodies and its own accounts on Twitter and Facebook. Obama piled on, telling Iowa voters: “We don’t have to collect a bunch of binders to find qualified, talented women.” He reminded them that the first bill he signed into law was pay equity legislation named after Lilly Ledbetter that Romney did not support. Romney argued that he has the answer for women who want better schools and job opportunities. “Why is it that there are 3.6 million more women in poverty today than when the president took office?” Romney asked at a rally in Chesapeake, Va. “This president has failed America’s women.”
Feds: 1 arrested in terror plot NEW YORK (AP) — Federal authorities on Wednesday arrested a man they said was plotting to blow up the Federal Reserve building in Manhattan, just blocks from the World Trade Center site. Quazi Mohammad Rezwanul Ahsan Nafis, 21, was arrested in a sting operation Wednesday morning after he parked a van filled with what he believed were explosives outside the building and tried to detonate it in a suicide mission, authorities said. Earlier in the day, he went to a warehouse and assembled what he believed to be a 1,000-pound bomb using inert explosives provided by federal agents. He also recorded a videotaped statement in which he said, “We will not stop until we attain victory or martyrdom,” federal prosecutors said. Authorities said Nafis proposed several spots for his attack, including the New York Stock Exchange — and that in a written letter taking responsibility for the Federal Reserve job he was about to carry out, he said he wanted to “destroy America.” The bank in New York, located at 33 Liberty St., is one of 12 branches around the country that, along with the Board of Governors in Washington, make up the Federal Reserve System that serves as the central bank of the United States. It sets interest rates. The Bangladeshi native reported having overseas connections to al-Qaida, and traveled to the U.S. in January to carry out an attack, according to a complaint filed in federal court in Brooklyn.

Southwest’s weak September Wall Street expects Southwest Airlines made money in the third quarter, despite a lackluster September. Traffic, measured in how many miles passengers fly, was flat in July and August, but fell 2.1 percent last month. The airline’s average prices also weakened in September. Southwest reports results for its July-to-September period today.

Philip Morris’ sales challenge The seller of Marlboro and other cigarettes has been cutting costs and raising prices. The strategy by Philip Morris International is aimed at compensating for declining cigarette sales and the weak economy. But its third-quarter results, out today, are expected to show a dip in sales against large cigarette volume gains a year ago.

Huge 1-3A game on docket BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
While playing under the Friday Night lights garners plenty of attention, the Division 1-3A title could be decided on a Thursday The Blue Devils (6-2, 3-0) will play host to Ripley (6-3, 3-0) tonight at Tiger Stadium on the campus of Northeast Mississippi Community College. The venue played a roll in the early kickoff as Northeast will play its annual Homecoming contest against rival Itawamba at 3 p.m. on Saturday. The Devils had to move their league clash with Kossuth up a night last season. Booneville has won four straight after finished a rugged non-division schedule at 2-2. The Devils had an open date
before beginning league play and the rest paid dividends. The Devils have rolled through three-fifths of their league schedule, defeating Alcorn Central (54-6), Kossuth (41-16) and Holly Springs (397). BHS has outscored its eight opponents by 140 points, with the two losses by a combined seven digits. Ripley has won three straight, including a 35-12 win over Belmont. The Cardinals currently sit in third place and face Booneville in the regularseason finale. The Tigers own eight 1-3A titles, most among the league that debuted in 1984. Ripley hasn’t claimed the top spot since winning the last of three straight titles in 2007. Booneville, which dominated 2A before being bumped
up in 2001, won its lone 1-3A crown in 2009. That too was secured in the next-to-last week in a non-Friday contest -- a Saturday afternoon win over the defending league champion Corinth Warriors. Ripley is averaging 35.2 points and 413.5 yards per game in its first season under former Shannon coach and Ole Miss linebacker Chad Cook. Quarterback Cody James headlines the squad with 2,376 yards and 29 total touchdowns. The senior has thrown for 1,682 yards and 15 scores and rushed for 694 and 14 TDs. James likes to spread the wealth with the football. Five different Tigers have doubledigit receptions and six have scored.
Booneville is putting up nearly identical scoring numbers at 34.3 points per game. The Devils are averaging 354.5 yards a night, including 238.1 on the ground. Zeus Rogers leads the ground attack and is nearing the coveted 1,000-yard mark. The sophomore has 982 yards -- 8.1 per carry -- and 11 scores on the ground. Quarterback Jack Simpson has accounted for 1,090 yards and 12 TDs. Also a sophomore, Simpson has passed for 839 yards and seven scores on just 93 attempts and is third in rushing with 251 yards and five scores. Other 1-3A action will be played on Friday. Kossuth (17, 0-3) is at Alcorn Central, while Belmont (5-2, 2-1) is at Holly Springs (4-5, 1-2).

Jeter to have surgery; recovery 4-5 months The Associated Press
DETROIT — Derek Jeter will have surgery on his broken left ankle, and the New York Yankees say the star shortstop could need four to five months to completely recover. The Yankees said Wednesday that Jeter will be operated on Saturday by Dr. Robert Anderson in Charlotte, N.C. The timetable the team announced means Jeter likely would be ready to return sometime between the start of spring training in mid-February and late spring training in mid-March. General manager Brian Cashman called that a conservative estimate and left open the possibility that Jeter could come back sooner. Jeter had scans Sunday, which confirmed the fracture, and he saw Anderson on Tuesday. “There’s no new information,” Cashman said. “Nothing seemed worse than what our team doctors saw.” Jeter has not accompanied the Yankees in Detroit. Jeter, the Yankees’ 38-year-old captain, broke his ankle Saturday in the 12th inning of the AL championship series opener against Detroit while trying to field a ground ball. Cashman said the four-to-five month timetable represents when Jeter would be fully ready to come back and play in a game. “My understanding is that it’s possible he will be ready earlier than that timeframe,” Cashman said. “But it is best to at least put out there four, five months as a safer bet.”

Some SEC coaches feel seat heating up The Associated Press
The Southeastern Conference could be getting another makeover. This one would have nothing to do with expansion. The league that has won six consecutive national championships has more coaches on the proverbial “hot seat” than in any recent year, with potential openings at Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky and Tennessee. The Razorbacks are seemingly in disarray, while the Tigers, Wildcats and Volunteers have had all sorts of on-field problems. With the season a little past
the halfway point, talk about possible replacements is more rampant than speculation about the upcoming recruiting class or even basketball season. Well, not at Kentucky. Still, all that conjecture can make a long season feel like it’s never going to end. “There can be outside distractions whether you’re doing great or whether you’re doing not as well as you certainly would like to be doing,” Auburn coach Gene Chizik said. “The great thing about college football is everybody’s got an opinion. It’s the greatest sport on the planet, and
part of what makes it so great in this part of the country is that everybody does have an opinion. “When you get into this, if you’re not strong enough to handle that, then you’re in the wrong business — both as a player and as a coach.” The way things have unfolded at Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky and Tennessee, it could be gut-check time for all four coaches and their assistants. The Razorbacks fired coach Bobby Petrino in April for hiring his mistress to a position in the athletic department and initially lying about her
presence during a motorcycle accident. Athletic director Jeff Long then hired former Michigan State and Louisville head coach John L. Smith to a 10-month contract. Arkansas (3-4, 2-2 SEC) went 1-4 in September, including home losses to Louisiana-Monroe and Rutgers. Making matters worse for Smith, he mistakenly referred to Arkansas as Alabama during a speech and told reporters to smile two days after a 52-0 loss to the top-ranked Crimson Tide.

McCann expects to be fully healthy for 2013 The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Brian McCann’s agent said Wednesday the Braves catcher expects to be “completely healthy” for the 2013 season following surgery on his right shoulder. McCann’s rehabilitation could last six months, so his status for the opening month of next season is uncertain.
The Braves, meanwhile, must decide this month on their $12 million option on McCann for 2013. Tuesday’s surgery by Dr. Xavier Duralde repaired McCann’s torn labrum. The Braves say the tear was larger than expected. McCann’s agent, B.B. Abbott, told The Associated
Press the six-time All-Star is expecting a full recovery. “Brian is extremely encouraged with the information he received from Dr. Duralde,” Abbott said. “His prognosis is for a full and complete recovery and he is excited to be completely healthy for the 2013 season.” McCann, 28, is expected
to return to light baseball activities in about four months. The full clearance could come two months later in April, the season’s opening month. Braves general manager Frank Wren was attending organizational meetings in Orlando on Wednesday and Please see MCCANN | 9
Armstrong out as Livestrong chairman, loses sponsors The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Already an outcast in cycling after a massive doping report, Lance Armstrong absorbed hits much closer to home Wednesday: to his wallet and his heart. Armstrong was dumped by Nike, Anheuser-Busch and other sponsors, and he gave up the top spot at Livestrong,
his beloved cancer-fighting charity, a week after an anti-doping agency released evidence of drug use by the seven-time Tour de France winner. Armstrong stepped down as chairman of Livestrong in an attempt to minimize the damage caused by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency’s report. USADA banned Armstrong
from the sport for life and has ordered that his Tour titles be stripped, which could come before the end of the month. “This organization, its mission and its supporters are incredibly dear to my heart,” the cancer survivor said in a statement. “Today therefore, to spare the foundation any negative effects as a result of controversy surrounding my
cycling career, I will conclude my chairmanship.” Minutes later, Nike dropped its personal sponsorship contract with him and issued a blistering statement that the company had been duped by his denials over the years. “Due to the seemingly insurmountable evidence that Please see ARMSTRONG | 9

could not be reached for comment on McCann. The team must decide within three days of the end of the World Series on contract options for McCann and starting pitcher Tim Hudson, for $9 million. Abbott said he has been given “no indication about the Braves’ intentions� on McCann. The shoulder problem did not affect McCann’s throwing but it hampered his hitting. He set a career low with his .230 batting average. He hit 20 homers with 67 RBIs in 121 games. He also was slowed by tendinitis in his right knee. McCann was notably left out of the starting lineup for the Braves’ wild-card loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Manager Fredi Gonzalez said McCann would have started if the team advanced to the division series. McCann, a career .279 hitter, began a string of six straight AllStar appearances in 2006, his first full season. He has hit 20 or more homers six times and has three seasons with more than 90 RBIs. Wren knows he must replace third baseman Chipper Jones, who is retiring. Centerfielder and leadoff hitter Michael Bourn could be difficult to re-sign as a free agent. When discussing his offseason outlook the day after the wildcard loss, Wren indicated his plans next season included McCann. “To be honest with you, I feel like this is a more focused offseason,� Wren said. “I’m looking forward to it because I think there’s a narrower focus of what we need.

making headlines for his $40.7 million bankruptcy. Long said Monday he would like to have the team’s next coach in place two weeks after the regular season. He has not ruled out Smith as a candidate, but given all that has happened this season, it’s hard to fathom any scenario in which Smith stays in Fayetteville. “In the end, it becomes who is interested in us,� Long said. “Even though I have had quite a long time to look at and research coaches, I don’t know who is truly interested in us and we won’t know that really until almost the end game because we’ve all seen other searches within this conference where they’ve ended up with their second, third choice so to speak.� Auburn secretly interviewed Petrino late in the 2003 season — while Tommy Tuberville was still the Tigers’ head coach — and many wonder whether Auburn would go after the offensive-mind-
ed coach again. Of course, that would mean firing Chizik two years after winning a national championship. The Tigers (1-5, 0-4) rank last in the SEC in total offense, clearly struggling with the transition from Gus Malzahn’s spread offense to Scot Loeffler’s pro-style system. Auburn has lost six consecutive SEC games by a combined score of 192-68 and is trying to avoid the program’s first 1-6 start since 1952. Maybe the most telling mark is Chizik’s 17-15 record without 2010 Heisman Trophy Cam Newton. “You have to be strong enough to be able to block out the positives when they’re telling you how great you are because you’re never that great,� Chizik said. “You have to be able to block out the negatives when they tell you how bad you are because you’re never that bad. That’s the message that I give to our team on a daily basis. How much they choose to listen and buy into what everybody’s
opinion, I can’t control that.� Kentucky (1-6, 0-4), meanwhile, has lost 13 of its last 17 games under coach Joker Phillips. The Wildcats have failed to build off that 2010 bowl berth, prompting the fan base to clamor for change. Phillips said Monday he talks with athletic director Mitch Barnhart a couple of times a week, but just about “small talk. “He’s been very encouraging,� Phillips said. “It’s nothing which you want to get at. One thing Mitch and I are: We’re friends. That’s more important to me than anything on the business side. We are friends. “And I can tell you this: there are not a lot of people out there that can say that they’re friends with their AD. There are not a lot of them. One thing that I do cherish and I do appreciate is our friendship.� Expectations at Kentucky hardly compare to those at Tennessee, where coach Derek Dool-

ey has come under fire after conference losses keep piling up. The Volunteers (3-3, 0-3) are 14-17 in Dooley’s three seasons, but just 4-15 in SEC play. They also are 0-13 against Top-25 opponents, and Dooley’s first two years produced the program’s first consecutive losing seasons since 1909-11. There have been signs of progress, though. Tennessee, outscored by an average of 19 points in seven SEC losses last year, led Florida in the second half and trailed by a score in the fourth quarter against Georgia and Mississippi State. But will that kind of improvement be enough to keep Dooley in Knoxville? “More than anything, you have to define who you are, not somebody else,� Dooley said. “It’s a life lesson. You can’t

let somebody else define who you are. The best way to define who you are is when you make a mistake or you don’t play well, you don’t dwell on it. You don’t make an excuse. You don’t try to defend it. You just focus on the next mission and be proud of what you put into it every day. “When you do that, you feel good about yourself as a man. You feel good about yourself as a player and you go do the best you can. Right now, we haven’t done the best we can. That’s what we ought to be concerned about.� The Vols have plenty of company in that department. Four coaching changes would be rare in the SEC, which hasn’t had that many since Florida, LSU, Mississippi and South Carolina hired new coaches following the 2004 season.

Lance Armstrong participated in doping and misled Nike for more than a decade, it is with great sadness that we have terminated our contract with him. Nike does not condone the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs in any manner,� the company said. In 2001, the apparel company produced an anti-doping commercial, narrated by Armstrong, addressing allegations that he had used performance-enhancing drugs by mocking the question, “What am I on?� and answering that he trained on his bicycle “six hours a day.� Brewing giant Anheuser-Busch followed Nike’s lead, saying: “We have decided not to renew our relationship with Lance Armstrong when our current contract expires at the end of 2012.� Soon after, other sponsors also cut ties with him. Among them were Trek bicycles and Honey Stinger, a maker of foods and gels for athletes. “We are in the process of removing Lance Armstrong’s image and endorsement from our product packaging,� a Honey Stinger spokesman said. If there was a silver lining in the day for Armstrong, it was that his major sponsors said they will continue to support the charity.

• The last two National League managers — Dusty Baker of the Reds and Davey Johnson of Washington — eliminated were the two hitters in the Atlanta Braves’ lineup in 1974 behind Hank Aaron when he hit home run No. 715.
• Bryce Harper of the Washington Nationals, who was mired in a 1-for-18 funk through the first four games of the NLDS, tripled and homered in his first two at-bats in Game 5. He became the second-youngest player to homer in the postseason, and the youngest to hit a triple.
OCTOBER 6, 1969 In the first-ever National League Championship Series, Nolan Ryan chips in with seven relief innings as the Mets finish off a sweep of the NL West champion Atlanta Braves. Ryan relieves Gary Gentry with two runners on and no outs in the third inning to earn the win in Game 3. The series features five future Hall of Famers in Ryan, Tom Seaver, Hank Aaron, Orlando Cepeda and Phil Niekro. OCTOBER 2, 1971 Tito Fuentes and Willie McCovey hit two-run homers in the fifth inning and provide Gaylord Perry enough support in the Giants’ 5-4 win over Pittsburgh in Game 1 of the NLCS. The Pirates would come back to win the next three games in what would be the first of the six LCS not to end in a sweep. In addition to Perry and McCovey, Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente, Juan Marichal and Willie Stargell are future Hall members appearing this series. OCTOBER 8, 1972 In the bottom of the seventh of Game 2 with Oakland leading Detroit 5-0, Tigers pitcher Lerrin LaGrow hits Oakland shortstop Bert Campaneris on the ankle. Believing it was a purpose pitch, Campaneris throws his bat in anger at LaGrow. The shortstop, who was 3-for-3 with two stolen bases, was immediately ejected and suspended for the remainder of the series, which was won by Oakland in five games. OCTOBER 16, 1985 In the first year that the LCS are seven-game series, the Kansas City Royals overcome a threegames-to-one deficit to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7. Charlie Leibrandt pitches 5.1 innings in relief of Bret Saberhagen to earn the win for the Royals. George Brett, with a .500 OBP and three home runs, is named ALCS MVP . OCTOBER 14, 1992 In one of the most famous moments in NLCS history, Atlanta’s Sid Bream lumbers around third base with the winning run with two outs as the Braves defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 in Game 7, scoring all three runs in the bottom of the ninth. Pinchhitter Francisco Cabrera bounces a single between short and third and left fielder Barry Bonds’ throw home to catcher Mike LaValliere is just a tad late as Bream follows David Justice, who scores the tying run on the play. OCTOBER 16, 2003 Roger Clemens of the Yankees and Pedro Martinez of Boston oppose each other in Game 7 of the ALCS. Neither pitcher factors into the decision as the game goes into extra innings. Starters Mike Mussina and David Wells both make relief appearances and Mariano Rivera pitches the final three innings for New York. Aaron Boone leads off the bottom of the 11th with a home run to left field off Tim Wakefield to send the Yankees to the World Series.

DETROIT VS. NEW YORK On Sept. 17, the Tigers lost a makeup game to the White Sox that dropped Detroit three games behind Chicago in the American League Central and not even in the wild card discussion. The Tigers finished 11-5 and flipped the standings ending the season with a three-game lead over Chicago. During that time, the Tigers’ starting pitching found a groove. The Yankees, on the other hand, took over first place on June 11 and built a 10-game lead by mid-July before hanging on over Baltimore down the stretch. The Yankees won six of 10 meetings during the regular season. CC Sabathia struck out 20 in 21.1 innings and allowed 20 hits in his three starts agains the Tigers this season. Sabathia will face Tigers’ ace Justin Verlander in Game 3 and again in Game 7 if the series goes down to the wire. Both pitched complete games in their respective Game 5s in the Division Series.
Pablo Sandoval
games with Baltimore. Manager Joe Girardi was able to push all the right buttons, but the lineup can’t rely on clutch swings off the bench to carry the team through a seven-game series. Girardi, who was dealing with the death of his father, was masterful in the Division Series. Whether it was pinch-hitting twice for Alex Rodriguez with the game on the line or benching his aging star for Game 5, Girardi earned his money with tough decisions. But only Derek Jeter (.364) and Mark Teixeira (.353) hit better than .217 off Baltimore pitching. ARod wasn’t the only hitter struggling. Tigers to Watch Anibal Sanchez and Doug Fister will each get two starts if the series goes six games. Fister won his only start against New York this season, but Sanchez was hit hard, lasting just three innings with seven earned runs in his start. First baseman Fielder didn’t have a good series against Oakland
Keys for Detroit The Tigers’ offense begins and ends with the two big guys in the middle, triple crown winner Miguel Cabrera, and his protection Prince Fielder. But the Tigers will live and die with starting pitching. Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Doug Fister and Anibal Sanchez combined to go 12-4 with a 2.21 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in September. That level of performance continued in the playoffs. Detroit starters held Oakland hitters to a .176 average in their five-game series. They had 41 strikeouts but allowed just 21 hits and 10 walks. Setup man Joaquin Benoit, and especially Jose Valverde, were horrible in the ALDS. That can’t help Jim Leyland’s confidence in his bullpen, which was so good last season. That will put added pressure on the starters to go deeper in games. Keys for New York The Yankees must get their bats going. They hit just .211 in the five
Matt Cain
stats-wise, but looking a little deeper into his at-bats reveals that he was hitting the ball well. He was robbed of at least four hits with good defensive plays and backed up Oakland outfielders to the track on more than one occasion. If his line drives begin to find holes, he’ll be tough for New York hurlers to deal with. Yankees to Watch Lefthander Clay Rapada will have some opportunities to neutralize Fielder. But he could be used to get more than just lefties out. Players on the Tigers roster are 1-13 off Rapada with the only hit by Quintin Berry. Rodriguez and his fragile psyche will certainly grab media attention whether he is in the lineup and no matter where he is in the batting order. But A-Rod isn’t the only Yankee struggling. Second baseman Robinson Cano, who was so good down the stretch, is just 2-for-22.

• So far this postseason, pitchers are winning the battle with runners in scoring position and two outs. The Cardinals are the only team with any degree of success in those clutch situations. St. Louis hitters are batting .261 with runners in scoring position and two outs with 11 RBIs. The other nine teams are batting a combined .109 with 13 ribbies.

ST. LOUIS VS. SAN FRANCISCO Neither the Giants nor the Cardinals made anything look easy in the NLDS. After losing the first two games at home, the Giants handed the Reds three losses in a row in Cincinnati, the only time the Reds dropped three straight at home all season. The Cardinals — stop me if you’ve heard this before — were down to their last strike twice, down two runs at Washington. Now the last two world champions will meet in a rematch of the 1987 and 2002 NLCS. The teams split six regular season games. The Giants outhit the Cardinals .281 to .247 but the Cardinals hit for extra bases and outslugged the Giants .428 to .389. San Francisco outscored St. Louis 30-22, but that included a 15-0 blowout. Bruce Bochy’s troops win with excellent pitching and just enough hitting. St. Louis relies on a potent offense, which at times struggles with inconsistency. They scored 2, 12, 8, 1 and 9 runs against the Nationals in the NLDS.
.817 4 6 9 27
Keys for San Francisco The Giants hit just .194 in the Reds’ series, getting outhit in two of their wins. They managed just three hits in their 10-inning win in Game 3. San Francisco cannot win games that turn into shootouts, but they love close, low-scoring games. Keys for St. Louis The Cardinals seem to manage the staff through the first six innings pretty well. Whether it’s Chris Carpenter shutting down teams, or relievers Joe Kelly et al picking up the slack when Jaime Garcia and Adam Wainwright couldn’t get through three innings. And closing out games can be an adventure, but when given run support, the Redbirds’ pitchers don’t throw away too many games. So getting the offense going will be the difference. Giants to Watch The offense revolves around Pablo Sandoval and Buster Posey. However, center fielder Angel Pagan provided
a huge spark in August and Septmeber and was instrumental in the wins at Cincinnati from his leadoff positon. The Cardinals will try to negotiate around the big hitters in the middle. If Marco Scutaro can be effective as a table-setter and Hunter Pence proves he can drive in big runs, the Giants will be tough to beat. It will be interesting to see whether Bochy goes with Tim Lincecum or Barry Zito in Game 4. The Giants have won 12 straight when Zito starts, but he struggled in Game 4 and was bailed out by Lincecum, who looked more like the Cy Young Lincecum than the out-of-sorts pitcher we’ve seen all season. Lincecum was certainly more effective than Zito, but is more suited to coming out of the pen, where he has proven to be a weapon. Cardinals to Watch Leadoff hitter Jon Jay is 11-for-18 against the scheduled starters for the first three games.
Career slugging percentage in the postseason for Carlos Beltran of the St. Louis Cardinals, which the best all-time among players with as many as 40 plate appearances. In 129 PAs, Beltran owns a .375 average and .488 on-base percentage. His OPS of 1.306 also ranks first in history.
With Jay on base in front of Carlos Beltran, Matt Holliday and Allen Craig, life will be much more difficult for the Giants’ starters. Manager Mike Matheny, who has juggled lineups all season in an effort to keep guys sharp, has stuck with the same batting order in the postseason. But if he needs to change things up, look for Matt Carpenter in the lineup against Matt Cain. He was 4-for-4 this season off the Giants’ ace while David Freese was 0for-4 with three Ks. However, I don’t see Matheny pulling Freese. Adam Wainwright appears to have hit a wall, not unexpected coming of Tommy John surgery and missing all of 2011. So Lance Lynn must step up and be the No. 3 starter behind Chris Carpenter and Kyle Lohse. Joe Kelly, Trevor Rosenthal and rookie Shelby Miller could be instrumental out of the bullpen as reliever Mitchell Boggs is showing signs of fatigue.

Times the Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez has struck out to end a playoff game. He is the only player in major league history with four game-ending Ks in the postseason.
TRIVIA ANSWER: Yankees fans may have an advantage here, but not in a fond memory kind of way. In 2004, a magical year for the Red Sox, David Ortiz homered off the Angels Jarrod Washburn in the 10th inning to end Game 3 of the ALDS. He then hit a 12th-inning homer off the Yankees’ Paul Quantrill to end Game 4 of the ALCS, and singled off Esteban Loaiza to win Game 5.
• This was the first time since the playoffs were expanded in 1995 to include wild-card teams that all four Division Series went the full five games.
Brad Schloss
• When the NLCS begins, it will be the first time in history that the two most recent World Series champions will meet in the League Championship Series. The St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Giants have faced each other twice before in the playoffs. The Cardinals defeated the Giants in seven games in the NLCS in 1987. The Giants got revenge in the 2002 NLCS.
Consecutive winner-take-all elimination games won by the St. Louis Cardinals dating back to 2004. Game 1 starts for the Yankees’ CC Sabathia in his career. That is second only to 11 by Greg Maddux. Consecutive years that the Kansas City Royals have missed the postseason, the longest current streak in the majors. The Pirates, with a 20-year drought, own the longest streak in the National League. The next longest streaks belong to Toronto (19), Seattle (11) and Miami (9). Paul Levy
Baseball stars honor Houston’s announcer Hamilton The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Milo Hamilton and Hank Aaron will be linked forever thanks to the Hall of Fame announcer’s call on the slugger’s record-breaking 715th home run. Hammerin’ Hank joined Hamilton on Tuesday to celebrate his retirement after 59 major league seasons. Aaron told Hamilton: “Your voice goes with me all over the world. Everywhere I go when people start talking about that home run, your voice comes back, and I want to
say how much I appreciate that.” Hamilton called Aaron’s 715th home run on April 8, 1974, as a broadcaster for the Atlanta Braves. He said that was the highlight of his career. “We’re kind of joined at the hip with home run No. 715,” Hamilton said of he and Aaron. “To have him here and make that effort to come here ... that means a lot to me.” Aaron called Hamilton a great friend and said that he helped him during his career. He reflected on the record-setting call.
“The more I hear his voice, the more I like it. I wish it had been 780,” Aaron said with a laugh. The 85-year-old Hamilton is retiring after 28 years with the Houston Astros. Aaron joined other baseball luminaries such as former Astros stars Craig Biggio, Roger Clemens, Nolan Ryan at a gala Tuesday to honor Hamilton. “He’s been the voice of the Astros for so long and what happens is he becomes the voice and the face that so many people recognize,” said Ryan, who
played for the Astros from 1980-88. “What he does is he passes the game on from one generation to the next. That’s the legacy and the impact that (he) has.” He was inducted into the broadcasters’ wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1992 and the Radio Hall of Fame in 2000. Hamilton couldn’t pick only one favorite memory of his time with the Astros, instead choosing a pair. “You’d have to make it 1 and 1A with Mike Scott’s no-hitter in ‘86 then won the West, and Biggio’s 3,000th hit,” he said.
Biggio was moved that someone who had called so many games, chose his milestone as one of his top calls. “The man has seen a lot over the course of his 60 years or so, so for him to say that, that makes me feel pretty good,” Biggio said of the call in 2007. “We’re really going to miss him. Astros fans are really going to miss him.” He will remain with the team working mostly on special events, but will make sporadic appearances on radio broadcasts. Hamilton was over-
whelmed by the outpouring of well-wishes on Tuesday night. “It’s kind of humbling when you think about it,” he said. “I thought I would just sink into the sunset.” Hamilton’s time calling games in the majors is second all time only to Vin Scully, who just finished his 64th season. A video tribute from Scully and several other announcers from around the league was played at the event. There was also a video message from former President George H.W. Bush and his wife Barbara.

Marine vet’s decision-making hints at a more serious issue DEAR ABBY: This is in response to “Worried Mom in Gainesville, Fla.” (July 13), whose son was not allowed to re-enlist in the Marine Corps. I hate to say this, but that young man knew darned well when he got those tattoos he would not be able to re-enlist. The U.S. Navy (which the Marine Corps “technically” falls under) passed the New Enlistment Tattoo Policy in January 2003, with the Marine Corps adding its policy in April 2007. — SPOUSE OF RETIRED NAVY CPO DEAR SPOUSE: You are correct. Many readers wrote to say the Navy had passed new tattoo policies in 2003 and the Marine Corps followed suit in 2007. If re-enlisting is so important to “Worried Mom’s” son, all he needs to do is have his “tatts” removed. Read on: DEAR ABBY: The issue isn’t time served or his honorable discharge. The Marine Times recently published an article on Marine policy regarding tattoos. The Corps seeks to discourage
full-sleeve tattoos and tattoos above the neck. They are regarded Abigail as unproVan Buren f e s s i o n a l in appearDear Abby ance and may incorporate gang-related symbols. “Worried Mom’s” son likely knew the guidelines. The mother said her son is bored and lacks focus in college. This suggests he may have PTSD. His desire to enlist in the French Foreign Legion may have short-term gains, but it may also compound mental health problems. — MARC IN SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. DEAR ABBY: The nonsense about joining the French Foreign Legion shows that the young man lacks maturity. He chose to get the tattoos; he can either have laser removal or live with his decision. He wants to be a Marine and is crying about a regulation he does not like?
That is definitely not Marine quality! It appears he needs a serious dose of maturity. — CHRIS IN INDEPENDENCE, MO. DEAR ABBY: The French Foreign Legion is a rational choice for this bored veteran of two tours in Iraq. After three five-year enlistments, he will be eligible to retire. Plus, the legion will prepare him for a civilian occupation. He will be able to live in France after only one enlistment, which gives him the benefits of the French medical system. Many employers in Europe prefer to hire ex-legionnaires. The legion also has a history of teaching its recruits how to speak enough French to get along. How do I know this? My brother joined the FFL at age 35. Wish I had, too. — CHARLES IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS DEAR ABBY: Currently, the Australian forces are expanding and are unable to fill their ranks with their own citizens, so they are recruiting members from other nations. The mission of
the Australian military is similar to the U.S. military. As a member of the Australian forces, he would be defending the same ideals as the U.S. military. I retired from the U.S. Navy last year and seriously considered doing this, too. — RETIRED NAVY, REDMOND, ORE. DEAR ABBY: This young man, like our son, is clearly experiencing the effects of PTSD. The impact of this disorder on our servicemen affects their ability to readjust to civilian life and move forward with positive life planning. The signs of PTSD can be subtle, but they are very real. The man in that letter needs professional help. His injuries, while not physically obvious, require attention. — CONCERNED PARENTS (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Today in History Today is Thursday, Oct. 18, the 292nd day of 2012. There are 74 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 18, 1962, James D. Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins were honored with the Nobel Prize for Medicine and Physiology for determining the double-helix molecular structure of DNA.
On this date: In 1685, King Louis XIV signed the Edict of Fontainebleau, revoking the Edict of Nantes that had established legal toleration of France’s Protestant population, the Huguenots. In 1812, during the War of 1812, the British ship HMS Frolic was captured off the Virginia coast by the crew of the USS Wasp, which was in turn captured by the HMS Poictiers. In 1867, the United States took formal possession of Alaska from Russia. In 1892, the first longdistance telephone line between New York and Chicago was officially opened (it could only handle one call at a time). In 1912, black boxer Jack Johnson was arrested in Chicago, accused of violating the Mann Act because of his relationship with his white girlfriend, Lucille Cameron. (The case collapsed when Cameron refused to cooperate, but Johnson was later rearrested and convicted on the testimony of a former mistress, Belle Schreiber.)
In 1922, the British Broadcasting Co., Ltd. (later the British Broadcasting Corp.) was founded. In 1931, inventor Thomas Alva Edison died in West Orange, N.J., at age 84. In 1944, Soviet troops invaded Czechoslovakia during World War II. In 1961, the movie musical “West Side Story,” starring Natalie Wood and Richard Beymer, premiered in New York, the film’s setting. In 1969, the federal government banned artificial sweeteners known as cyclamates because of evidence they caused cancer in laboratory rats. In 1971, the Knapp Commission began public hearings into allegations of corruption in the New York City police department (the witnesses included Frank Serpico). In 1972, Congress passed the Clean Water Act, overriding President Richard M. Nixon’s veto. In 1977, West German commandos stormed a hijacked Lufthansa jetliner on the ground in Mogadishu, Somalia, freeing all 86 hostages and killing three of the four hijackers. In 1982, former first lady Bess Truman died at her home in Independence, Mo., at age 97. In 2001, CBS News announced that an employee in anchorman Dan Rather’s office had tested positive for skin anthrax. Four disciples of Osama bin Laden were sentenced in New York to life without parole for their roles in the deadly 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa.
Ten years ago: The Vatican demanded that America’s Roman Catholic bishops revise their hard-line crackdown policy on sexually abusive priests, saying that elements conflicted with universal church law. (In 2005, the U.S. bishops voted overwhelmingly to stick with the main points of the discipline plan.)
Five years ago: Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto returned to Pakistan, ending eight years of self-imposed exile; a suicide bombing in a crowd welcoming her killed more than 140 people, but Bhutto escaped unhurt. (However, she was slain in December 2007.) Former Joint Chiefs chairman William Crowe (krow) died in Bethesda, Md., at age 82. Manager Joe Torre, rejecting a pay cut, left the New York Yankees.
One year ago: Fifty wild animals were released by the owner of an eastern Ohio farm, Terry Thompson, who then committed suicide; authorities killed 48 of the creatures, while the remaining two were presumed eaten by other animals. The Republican presidential candidates laced into each other in their latest debate, held in Las Vegas; Mitt Romney emerged as still the person to beat, even as he was called out on the issues of illegal immigration, health care and jobs. Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit emerged from five years in captivity as Hamas militants hand him over to Egyptian mediators in an
exchange for 1,000 Palestinian prisoners.
Today’s Birthdays: Rock-and-roll performer Chuck Berry is 86. Sportscaster Keith Jackson is 84. Actress Dawn Wells is 74. College and Pro Football Hall-of-Famer Mike Ditka is 73.

Haworth graduates cadet basic training Special to the Daily Corinthian
WEST POINT, N.Y. — Cadet James Daniel Haworth, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Haworth of Corinth, completed cadet basic training at the U.S. Military Academy. Haworth successfully completed six weeks of CBT. CBT is one of the most challenging events a cadet will encounter over the course of their four years at the academy.
The initial military training program provides cadets with basic skills to instill discipline, pride, cohesion, confidence and a high sense of duty to prepare them for entry into the Corps of Cadets. Areas of summer instruction included first aid, mountaineering, hand grenades, rifle marksmanship and nuclear, biological, and chemical training.
Haworth began classes Aug. 20. The West Point curriculum offers 37 majors balancing physical sciences and engineering with humanities and social sciences leading to a bachelor of science degree. Haworth graduated from Corinth High School. He plans to graduate from West Point in 2016 and be commissioned as
a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army. The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the nation as an officer in the United States Army.
Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The Sagittarius moon suggests that it is impossible to grow while staying the same. This lucky, sophisticated, inquisitive and expansive lunar aspect encourages us to leave the familiar boundaries of our routine and ask a new question: What’s out there? How do others live? Why should I find out first-hand? ARIES (March 21-April 19). Life is filled with contradictions. Instead of expecting people to be one way, you leave mental room for the possibilities. You’ll react to how things are instead of trying to force your reality onto them. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll be doing the upkeep necessary to keep life rolling smoothly along: the car needs an oil change, the air filters need replacing, etc. Handling it all in a timely manner boosts your confidence. GEMINI (May 21June 21). The health of a partnership depends on your ability to deal with problems together. Don’t leave an issue unresolved today, or resentments will form. Get everything out on the table. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll lead with a generous spirit and treat your loved ones the way you know they would like to be treated, even when it may not be deserved. Eventually, everything evens out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A problem will alert you that your feelings are flowing in an unhelpful direction. Once you get that message, you no longer need to pay attention to the problem. Change the way you project emotions, and the issue will go away. VIRGO (Aug. 23Sept. 22). Strangers sense that you’re someone to know. Stay modest. The fact that you don’t feel the need to talk about your accomplishments says that you’ve accomplished quite a lot. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Look through old pictures, notes and souvenirs from your past. It will invigorate your current scene to remember who you’ve been at different times in your life. Those people are still inside of you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Spiritual
work is all about clearing the obstacles to free-flowing energy and increasing your awareness. You will do both today and make progress along your spiritual path. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Someone will come to you for help, but you may not see a clear way to give this person what he or she wants. Just being available to listen may be enough. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The masters suggest that true selfesteem doesn’t depend on anything outside of you. But how can humans be expected to find selfworth in oppressive environments? You’ll rectify a situation that’s clearly wrong. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your day is filled with love, fun and friendship. What makes this possible is the work you did earlier in the week. So enjoy without guilt, knowing that you deserve the happiness you experience. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are too many people who postpone or give up their dreams in order to take care of others. Unearth your buried passion because your turn is coming. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 18). It’s a year of expansion, and you’ll become known for something new. The fresh faces in your life will bring out a different side of you. December features aggressive action on the career front. January is for sorting out financial details and healing family drama, too. February and May will be exquisitely romantic. Aries and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 6, 2, 14 and 9. ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “My 10-year-old Pisces son is terrified by Halloween and has asked the rest of the family not to celebrate it. He has always hated scary decorations, and I’m afraid that his two older brothers may have added to his fear by exposing him to some gruesome masks when he was very young. Since my older sons love the holiday so much, is it fair to honor my youngest son’s request?” It is unfortunate that your Pisces son was frightened at an early age. Pisces are ruled by Neptune and have wonderfully vivid imaginations that can sometimes work against them if what they are imagining is horrible.

Beauty is generally in the eye of the beholder Back when he was a second grader, my brother Dean thought it was the height of hilarity to tiptoe into our mother’s bedroom early on a Saturday morning when she was fast asleep and set one of those ugly rubber spiders on her pillow. Then he’d tiptoe back out and wait outside her door in a controlled frenzy of excitement for her to wake up with that creature crouched next to her nose. One of the great things about our Mommy was that she could jump and shriek with the best of them. Another is that she sure could take a joke. Never did get mad. And I don’t know how many times he pulled that gag. After a while, I bet she didn’t find it quite as startling to find a big ole hairy spider
perched on her pillow, though as much as she disliked them, I imagine Ryland the sight Bruhwiler did give her a jolt. And Columnist boy oh boy, could she whoop. She never failed us. Then she’d wail, “Oh, Dean — !� And he’d burst into her room, cutest, skinniest little kid with an ecstatic grin on his face, Adam and I right behind him, all of us laughing at our funny Mommy, her hair tousled, her face still soft and sleepy, her clown’s mouth going “Ooh, awful, get that away!� I’ve been thinking about spiders because I have a wowie kazowie of a cookie cutter to use on a
the first day of November and savors all things Halloween. She also has a love/hate relationship with six- and eight-legged critters so strong she hangs preserved specimens of enormous beauties on her downstairs bathroom wall (beetle, butterfly, and, of course, a bulbous spider with legs outspread) for visitors to admire (though if a live one larger than an inch makes an indoor appearance, I have a feeling she talks her husband into catching it and carrying it back outside). Last time I visited, we all piled into the car and headed over to the Butterfly Pavilion outside Denver. There we drifted along the trail that winds through an indoor “rain forest� of dense foliage and lush flowers -- and 1,600 butterflies silently
batch for Halloween. Not really sure whether I’m making them for the kids or for myself, to tell you the truth. I fell in love with this cookie cutter at first sight, but could not bring myself to pay $7 for the silly thing, even if it is an absolutely splendiferous spider almost as big as my hand and made of brass. A work of art, really. But $7? I reminded myself quite sternly that the plastic cookie cutters shaped like a pumpkin and a bat and a half moon — which I already own — are more than sufficient for the very rare occasions I’ll actually use them. On the other hand, spider cookies surely would be cool, especially for the Colorado kids. Not to mention their mom, who has a birthday coming up
fluttering about, occasionally landing on our persons like gentle fairies. Not that I counted, but that’s what they claim. What I can say is that folks walk slower than slow, eyes wide and mouths like oh’s. As they do also at the spider-arium next door (probably has another name; I’ve forgotten) where young and old take turns letting a big ole hairy spider crawl across their open palm and up their arm a ways. Yessirree. That was fun to watch — both the graceful critter and folks’ faces and their flinches. And the involuntary smiles as they almost inevitably remarked: “Oh, that tickles!� This particular tarantula was a laid back slowpoke, not at all like the skittery spidees whose
sudden dashes have scared most of us from childhood, no matter how bravely we sang aloud the “eensy beensy spider� song. If seven-year-old Natalie could take it, so could her gramma. I gulped and put my hand out, too, said “Oh it tickles!� and felt that same slow smile light up my face. As you must have figured out already, I did spend $7 on that cookie cutter. Guess I better warm the oven and unearth the rolling pin so I can send a box of crunchy spiders to Colorado. And a couple to my little brother. (Daily Corinthian columnist Ryland Bruhwiler lives on a farm in McNairy County, Tenn. She can be contacted by email at downyonder@ wildblue.net.)
‘Argo’ tells story of US rescue after Iranian hostage takeover Argo, R, *****plus, Ben Affleck, Bryan Cranston, John Goodman, Alan Arkin Victor Garber; Warner Brothers film; Director Ben Affleck; length — 120 minutes It’s happened again. This has to be one of the best fall movie lineups in several years. The interesting part is we still have several weeks left and the coming attractions look great. “Argo� returns to the yesteryears of the Iran hostage takeover during 1979 and 1980. The film opens with the horrors of watching protesters storming the American Embassy in Iran and taking American hostages. This event actually occurred on Nov. 4, 1979. As the situation esca-
lated, six Americans escaped and found refuge in the Canadian amTerry bassador’s Burns h o u s e . Sixty-nine Movie Critic days later, the CIA realizes it must rescue the six Americans or they will be executed if they are located. Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck) is a CIA Agent and an expert in extracting individuals from dangerous situations. “Argo� is based on one of Mendez’s books. Affleck’s performance proves many times, less is more. He plays the Mendez character in a calm but authoritative way. He
the extract team must have fake identifications and convince Iranian soldiers they are part of the film crew. The events that start taking place in this extremely dangerous scenario will keep the audience on the edge of their comfortable theater seat. I cannot emphasize the intensity of “Argo.� Knowing this was based on true events makes it even more frightening. The actual facts surrounding the six individuals who escaped were not revealed until President Clinton announced it in the late ’90s. The hostages in the American Embassy in Iran were kept captive for 444 days. “Argo� is a smart film which moves rapidly from beginning to end. What happens in some scenes
remains composed while delivering straight forward critical information. Mendez is creative and resourceful at his job. His idea is to pretend to scout an area for a movie in Iran. It will be a sci-fi movie similar to other movies during that time period. Iran is a great backdrop for these kinds of fictional stories.

A lifelong movie buff, he can be contacted by email at burns984@bellsouth.net. Terry’s movie grading scale: five-plus stars — as good as it gets; five stars — don’t miss; four stars — excellent; three stars — good; two stars —fair; one star — poor; no stars — don’t bother.)
