work-related death

Employee: Jerrell Cockrell, 76, Lowe’s Home Improvement Died: Monday night Found: Near ladder Body: Sent to state medical examiner

Worker dies after apparent fall

Lowe’s employee found by customer, coroner says

by Warren Watkins The Daily Citizen An employee of a local business died after an apparent fall.

Jerrell Cockrell, 76, died Monday, according to White County Coroner David Powell, after being found unconscious at Lowe’s Home Improvement Warehouse, 400 E. Evans.

“Indications are he had fallen from a 10-foot ladder,” Powell said. “A customer found him lying in the floor and alerted store personnel, who called 911.”

A report on file with the

Searcy Police Department shows that at about 9:35 p.m.

Powell requested that an officer respond to the hospital, saying NorthStar EMS had transported Cockrell to the White County Medical Center.

At the time of the report there was no one from Lowe’s available to speak to, patrolman Steve Hacker reported.

Powell said that, given the circumstances, Cockrell’s body was sent to the state medical examiner’s office in Little Rock for an autopsy. Funeral arrangements are incomplete and will be announced by Roller-Daniel Funeral Home, Powell said.

A Lowe’s manager had no comment on the incident when contacted by The Daily Citizen Tuesday afternoon.

A federal safety panel said a midair collision last year was caused by an air controller’s errors. — Page 2a

Trial on hold as ex-policeman gets mental evaluation

by Warren Watkins warren@thedailycitizen.com The trial of a former school resource officer charged with sexual assault, scheduled for Tuesday, has been indefinitely postponed while he receives a mental evaluation from the state hospital.

Hamilton Riley, 48, at the time the school resource officer for Ahlf Junior High School, was arrested in the bedroom of a 16-year-old girl at 1 a.m.

Feb. 23 and charged with first-degree

criminal sexual conduct. Riley resigned from the Searcy Police Department the same day.

Riley, who was freed on a $100,000 bond, faces six to 30 years in prison and up to a $15,000 fine.

White County Prosecutor Chris Raff said the charge of sexual assault was supported by Riley’s position of trust CoNTINuED oN PagE 2a

News in brief Fox’s Huckabee to suggest ‘common sense solutions’

The Associated Press LANSING, Mich. — Fox News host and ex-Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will talk about what he calls "common sense solutions" for Michigan and the nation during the M i c h i g a n Huckabee Chamber of Commerce's annual Future Forum event.

Huckabee will discuss issues from education to health care and manufacturing as the evening's keynote speaker at Tuesday afternoon's forum in East Lansing. It's at the Kellogg Center on the Michigan State University campus.

Huckabee ran in the 2008 GOP presidential primary before dropping out. He's considered a possible 2012 presidential candidate.

Fox News commentator Glenn Beck was the keynote speaker at last year's Future Forum.

OFFICER INJURED

What: Woman rams into police cruiser Injuries: Officer Carl West sustained back injury

Little Rock officer injured when cruiser rammed

The Associated Press LITTLE ROCK — A woman is in custody for allegedly ramming a police cruiser and injuring an officer after he stopped to see what she was doing in a shopping center parking lot at 4 a.m.

Police say 30-year-old Officer Carl West sustained a

back injury Tuesday after 26year-old Tabatha Redmond of North Little Rock twice rammed West's patrol car.

Other officers who arrived at the scene said Redmond fought as officers tried to get her out of her car. The report says she "continuously hissed" at the officers and tried to bite them.

Redmond was taken to the Pulaski County Jail, where no bond had been set later Monday morning. There was no indication on her jail record that she had an attorney.

The incident took place off Cantrell Road in west Little Rock.

would come to the aid of challenger Christine O'Donnell.

Castle, a former twoterm governor and a veteran of nearly two decades in the House, was repeatedly assailed as a liberal, a Republican in name only. He and the party responded by challenging O'Donnell's fitness for public office and her ability to win a statewide election in the fall.

"There's a tidal wave that is coming to Delaware, and we're riding in it and he's drowning in it," O'Donnell said of Castle.

While Republicans brawled, New Castle County Executive Chris Coons coasted to the Democratic nomination without opposition.

Establishment vs. tea party in primary showdown

By David Espo The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Establishment Republicans vied with challengers favored by tea party activists one last time Tuesday in a multistate finale to a primary election season marked by economic recession and political upheaval.

Highlighted by GOP-tea party showdowns in New Hampshire and Delaware, six states chose candidates for governor and five featured contests for nominations to the Senate.

In New York, 40-year veteran Democratic Rep. Charles Rangel faced the voters for the first time since the House ethics committee accused him of 13 violations, most of them relating to his personal finances.

So far this year, seven incumbent members of Congress have tasted defeat, four Republicans and three Democrats. And that does not include a lengthy list of GOP contenders who fell to tea party-supported challengers despite having the backing of party officials eager to maximize their gains in November.

With unemployment high and President Barack Obama's popularity below 50 percent, Republicans said the primaries reflected an enthusiasm that would serve the party well in the fall, when control of Congress will be at stake.

Democrats, however, said the presence of tea party-supported Republicans would prove costly to the GOP on Nov. 2 — a proposition that remained to be tested in seven weeks' time.

In Delaware, Rep. Mike Castle sought the nomination to a Senate seat held for 36 years by Vice President Joe Biden in a primary that took a sharp turn for the negative three weeks ago when the Tea Party Express announced it

Beebe schools join lawsuit

Board approves contract to ‘Go Green’

By Erica Sirratt Special to the Daily Citizen BEEBE — The Beebe public school board made the decision to join other White County School districts in becoming interveners in the class action lawsuit filed against Next meeting: oct. the county 11, 6:30 p.m.

Location: Board room assessors and central offices collectors in the state filed

by Kenneth Joe May and Mary May. On April 1, a lawsuit was filed claiming that paying taxes on natural gas loyalties are illegal since taxes are already paid by companies extracting the gas.

The suit claims that it is unconstitutional and requires the repayment of those taxes and to stop collection of teacher tax revenues, according to Dr. Belinda Shook, superintendent.

Shook told the board that amount isn’t very much for the district this year at about $8,000, but next year it will be closer to $100,000 and will

School board

continue to increase. “I think it is our duty to protect the interest of our students in our school district to be able to provide an adequate education,� Shook said.

According to Shook, this could increase over time and really become a financial hardship for the school district if they start losing the assistance. “This could be catastrophic for us and other schools. Every school in the state could become involved in this. Millions and millions of dollars could be lost for educations,� board member Brenda McKown said.

In other business, the board approved the Energy Education Contract after hearing positive feedback from surrounding districts that have done it. According to Shook, schools that have implemented this idea have noticed that the students are adopting the philosophy of going green.

Shook said the school will have to purchase the software and hire someone to be in charge on salary, but it is projected to save the school district $1.9 million over a 10-year period.

The board also discussed the idea of allowing parents to pay for their children’s lunches online. According to Jackie Perry, parents can currently go online and check

their child’s balance and they can also get 10 days of history.

In previous years, parents could pay online, but due to the rise in fees, the school canceled this service. Now fees have gone down and Perry says that the interest in online paying has risen.

With the new program the parents would be able to go online and pay their child’s balance for a small convenience fee. The fee is determined by the individual school and Perry suggested if this new program is implemented that the fee be $2.50. “This program encourages larger payments. It doesn’t matter if you pay for more than one child; it is still only the one convenience fee,� Perry said.

The board hasn’t made a decision on the program, but stated they would look further into the program to decide if this is something they want to reinstate. The board appointed Assistant Superintendent Scott Embry as the 504 Coordinator and the equity coordinator. Vickie Duke was appointed as the district treasurer.

The next school board meeting will be Oct. 11 in the board room in central offices at 6:30 p.m. The Beebe School board meets on the second Monday of every month at 6:30 p.m.

The McCorkles said they walk for exercise five times a week, sometimes in their home neighborhood of River Oaks. Warren Watkins/warren@thedailycitizen.com

Trails: City’s ‘green ribbon’ of trails recognized

Continued from Page 1a

“The best trail we have is the bike/walking trail that is 4.1 miles in length,� said Brian Smith, parks and recreation director. “It is basically a hard-surfaced asphalt trail that runs through a lot of residential and commercial areas in the city. It’s a green ribbon through the city. We do our very best to maintain it and we get a

lot of compliments on how well it’s maintained.�

The trail’s west end is on Ella Street near Searcy High School and the southeast terminus is at the Searcy Sports Complex. With some streets and sidewalks interspersed, riding or walking the trail system is longer than the 4.1 miles of actual trail bed.

“One of the biggest complaints is that it doesn’t loop the city,� Smith said. “That would be an ambition of ours in the future, to make it encircle the city.�

The city maintains signage on the trail with distances, information people need to know about how far they are walking or biking, Smith said.

Event: Art to Heart event will be held Thursday

Continued from Page 1a

Previously, the show has offered art for sale by auction and featured a sit-down dinner and a speaker. This year, however, the show’s organizers are aiming for a more relaxed atmosphere. Art will be for sale at fixed prices. “People can come in, get food, mingle around,�

Connell said. “What I like about it is if they see a piece of art and they want it, they can buy it and leave. They don’t have to wait around for an auction.�

The show has been moved this year to the RobbinsSanford Grand Hall, after the previous location, Ann’s Bridal, had become too limited. “Last year, we were scrambling and worried about seats,�

Connell said. “This year we would like to have the guest list limitless. At that location, it’s huge. We’re excited about that, we can stage as much art as we want.�

The center will advertise their own cause at a table that features child sexual abuse statistics and a piece of art-

work that a former patient made.

White County Children’s Safety Center has been operating for three years. They are a nonprofit group that helps sexually abused children in various ways. “We follow kids from the time they get to the center to the end of their case,� said Olivia Hawkins, a child and family advocate at the center. “We fulfill simple needs, answer questions about the case and so on. We like to be available.�

Around 50 percent of the center’s funding comes from grants and state support, but the center is faced with raising the rest of the funding themselves. The last two years, Connell said, the art show had raised between $10 and $15,000, and the latter is their goal for this year.

But their biggest challenge comes from becoming known. “It’s hard coming in being not only a new nonprofit in town but a new yearly event,�

Connell said. “I would say

that we are progressively growing each year. We still work really hard at our awareness in town.�

The Art to Heart show will take place Thursday evening from 6 to 8 p.m. in the

Robbins-Sanford Grand Hall.

Honoring veterans

B

ack in 1997, the Arkansas Legislature passed a bill authorizing a state veterans cemetery to join the three national cemeteries at Fayetteville, Fort Smith and Little Rock.

In 2001, the first cemetery was opened on an 82-acre site in North Little Rock. It was funded by the federal government and the Arkansas Department of Veterans Affairs has the responsibility for maintenance and upkeep.

The first state cemetery was so well received that a second cemetery was planned. In 2008, Gov. Mike Beebe authorized the purchase of 100 acres of land near Birdeye in the northeast part of the state. A $7 million federal grant was secured to cover construction costs.

Last week, work began on the first 40 acres of the cemetery. The first graves should be available in November of 2011.

The cemetery is open to any service member who died on active and duty and almost all service members as long as they did not receive a dishonorable discharge. For service beginning in 1980 or later, there is a minimum of 24 months of continuous active duty.

A veterans spouse is also eligible and, in some cases, other dependents.

National Guard and Reserve veterans are eligible is some cases, as are World War II Merchant Marines, members of the Philippine Armed Forces and commissioned officers who served in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Regular or Reserve Corps of the Public Health Service.

It's fitting that the state honors those who served this country honorably, as well as those who stood by them here at home. Our state veterans cemeteries provide a resting place of lasting honor.

Dear Editor, If a group tries to impose “freedom from religion” on all of us, it seems right to ask a few questions. First, what is there about religion that you are not already free from?

The help Christians offer to needy people can be refused.

Attending worship services is not forced. No one is forced to become a Christian. When they pray, such as at a council meeting, they pray to God, not to you and you do not have to participate. Messages that are preached are only for those who want them. So what is it in religion that is forced on you and you want to achieve freedom from?

If your objection is only to its presence on government property, then your objection is to their freedom to express their views. You need to read our constitution again.

The First Amendment says,

“Congress shall make no laws regarding an establishment of religion nor to prohibit the free exercise there of.” Who is restrained here?

Congress. What two things does it say they are not to do? 1. make laws regarding religion and 2. prohibit the free exercise there of. What does it say about the church, or “separation?” Not a word.

How is it the ACLU thinks congress should do both of these things that are expressly forbidden by the constitution?

Ironically, in that misinterpretation the very amendment that was written to protect the church from government control becomes the club by which the government controls the church. What we really need freedom from is those who would re-write the constitution.

STATE VIEWS

Lincoln question to Boozman may have backfired

P

olitical debates often are scripted productions without any surprises.

That wasn’t the case last Friday when Sen. Blanche Lincoln posed a question to her challenger, Rep. John Boozman.

In an apparent attempt to embarrass Boozman, she asked about his vote “to protect the rights of fathers who committed rape or incest against a minor that resulted in a pregnancy, to be able to sue the doctor who performed an abortion on that victim.” She then asked if he believed most Arkansans believe “the rights of rapists take priority over the rights of women who have been assaulted.”

Lincoln’s question may have backfired since it exposed her extreme position on abortion.

Boozman replied he had no idea what she was talking about but he is against all abortions except in the case of rape, incest, or the life of the mother. His voting record was clear on this. When he pressed Sen. Lincoln on what bill or vote

JASON TOLBERT

she was talking about she fumbled through her notes but could not find the vote or provide any more detail.

Later, her campaign provided a procedural vote from 2005 on a motion to recommit HR 748 — the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act. That bill would have strengthened state parental notification laws by making it a crime to transport minors to another state to prevent parents from knowing their young daughter was having an abortion.

The bill never became law but received support of almost the entire Arkansas delegation, including Reps.

Boozman, Berry, Ross, and Snyder and ultimately Sen. Pryor. Lincoln was the only member of the delegation to join 42 Democrats to block cloture in the Senate and

kill the bill.

On this bipartisan parental notification bill, Lincoln had the moxie to do what she refused to do on the health care bill — join a filibuster to prevent its passage.

But the vote Lincoln’s campaign points to was a procedural vote to recommit the bill back to committee with the ultimate goal of preventing its passage.

Abortion rights advocate Rep. Jerry Nadler made the motion and argued along with the extreme liberal Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) that the bill could allow a father who had raped his daughter to sue someone transporting her across statelines for an abortion.

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) spoke against the motion pointing out that the rapist would have to expose his crime in order to accomplish what Nadler was suggesting and the bill actually protected victims of abuse by requiring authorities to be alerted if abuse is suspected.

Boozman voted along with 245 congressmen, including Rep. Marion Berry, against the motion to

recommit.

Why would Sen. Lincoln bring up a vote that clearly demonstrates her extreme position on the issue of abortion?

Perhaps the answer is in the history of her campaign against anther Boozman, John’s late brother Fay, whom she defeated in 1998.

During that campaign, Fay made an ill-advised comment about rape victims having difficulty getting pregnant. Lincoln unleashed an attack ad on this issue in the waning days of the campaign, which some insiders point to as a major reason for her victory.

Lincoln’s odd question in the debate may have been an attempt to create another Boozman gaffe that she could exploit, but instead she exposed not only her lack of debate preparation but also her extreme pro-abortion positions.

NATIONAL VIEWS

GOP insiders wary

Things have gotten out of hand when it comes to predictions of a Republican victory in the upcoming midterm elections. In recent days, talk of a GOP edge has turned into talk of a GOP blowout. Prognosticators have upgraded the coming political storm from Category 4 to Category 5.

Republican control of the House has gone from possible to inevitable.

But Republicans don’t believe it, or at least the insiders involved in the midterm effort don’t believe it. As they see it, they’re in a good position to pick up the 39 seats needed to win control of the House, but polls showing a huge GOP lead are simply wrong. “I’m assuming that Cook and Rothenberg and Rove and the others have got different indications from what we’ve got,” says one member of the House GOP election team. “I don’t want to overestimate what’s out there.”

“I think it’s about even,” says a strategist involved in the GOP effort.

“That is a remarkable place to be, given where we were in the ‘08 election. But it’s about even.”

The landslide talk was based on two high-profile polls. One, from Gallup, showed Republicans with an unprecedented 10-point lead in the so-called “generic ballot” question — whether voters will choose the Democratic or Republican candidate in their congressional election. The other poll, from the Washington Post and ABC News, showed the GOP with a 13-point lead.

There are problems with both polls.

First, Gallup’s surveys have been pretty uneven this election season. Indeed, Gallup has since released a new poll showing the generic-ballot question dead even, which doesn’t exactly inspire confidence in its finding of a 10-point GOP lead.

BYRON YORK

As for the Post poll, Republican insiders say it (uncharacteristically) skews things toward the GOP. The 13point margin is among people judged by the Post to be most likely to vote this November. Among all registered voters, Republicans have a thin twopoint lead in the same poll.

Which count is more accurate?

Republicans usually score higher with likely voters. But the election is still more than seven weeks away. Counting only likely voters at this point “screens out Democratic groups that you know are going to be there at the end,” says the GOP consultant. “There are unions and African-Americans who typically get their information late, from leadership or the pulpit.”

In other words, those reliable Democrats will become likely voters soon enough. Former Republican Rep. Vin Weber, a veteran of many campaigns, predicts Democrats “are going to have some success in bringing their troops home and rousing their base over the next few weeks,” although Weber predicts Republicans will ultimately win control of the House.

As they look at the polls, some Republicans remember the painful near-death experience of 1998. In that year of scandal and partisan warfare, then-Speaker Newt Gingrich predicted the GOP would pick up as many as 40 seats in midterm voting. That’s

what some of the likely voter surveys seemed to indicate. But when Election Day came around, the GOP lost five seats, clinging to power by the barest of margins. A few days later, Gingrich, the architect of the party’s smashing 1994 victory, resigned.

Now, the man who would most likely be speaker if the GOP wins, Rep. John Boehner, is disdaining talk of a Republican rout and campaigning virtually 24/7. In the past couple of weeks, Boehner has stumped for Republicans in North Dakota, California, Wisconsin, Missouri, Kansas and Iowa, as well as tending his own political fences in Ohio. “Thirty-nine seats is a very steep hill to climb,” says Boehner representative Kevin Smith. “Obviously, earning back the majority is our goal, but no one is taking anything for granted.”

Some of the talk downplaying the GOP lead may be counterspin to ensure Republicans don’t become overconfident. “We don’t want to cause our voters to get lax and think we’ve got it,” says the member of the election team. But Republicans are also genuinely concerned about peaking too soon. “The notion of a wave that is already large and is going to build the next six or seven weeks into a massive Republican triumph is not, I think, accurate,” says Weber.

Perhaps the best way to characterize the GOP election team now is confident but nervous — confident that the basic trends of the election are going their way but nervous at the talk of a runaway victory. Be on guard against irrational exuberance, they’re telling supporters — and be sure to vote on Nov. 2.

Strong Women Program to begin Oct. 11

T

he White County Cooperative Extension Service will be offering the StrongWomen Program, a 12-week exercise program for middle-aged and older women, on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9-10 a.m. at the old Carder Buick Building on Hawkins Drive in Searcy.

Katie Cobb

Classes begin Oct. 11. The participant fee for this pro-

gram is $12.

The series will be led by me, a certified Strong Women instructor. I have taught Strong Women classes for five years.

The StrongWomen Program was developed at the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University.

The StrongWomen Program is based upon years of research on how strength training and proper nutrition improve the health of women of all ages.

Research shows that a program of strength training not only improves bone density but reduces falls, improves arthritis

symptoms and increases flexibility and strength.

The program is appropriate for both sedentary and very active women.

All participants will need program packets

by Oct. 4. Please pick up packets at the Extension Office, 411 N. Spruce St., Ste. 9 in Searcy, or call (501) 268-5394 for more

Drunken indiscretion threatens happy roommate relationship

DEAR ABBY: I have gotten myself into a “pickle� and I don’t know how to get out of it.

I rent a house with two roommates (both males) and have always followed a strict rule of not dating roommates or co-workers. One night, I came home after having a few drinks with friends. One of my roommates was up and we started talking. Then he started kissing me.

I wasn’t thinking clearly, and didn’t object when he trotted me off to my room.

I do like him, but only as a friend. There are no sparks for me as there are for him. I don’t want this to happen again, but I don’t want to hurt him either. In an ideal world, I’d like to remain friends and roommates, not lovers. Do you have any suggestions?

CAN’T BELIEVE I BROKE MY RULE IN FLORIDA

“pickled� again because you know what could happen if you do.

abiGail Van buren Dear abby

DEAR CAN’T BELIEVE: Yes, I do. You need to quit drinking or institute another “rule� that you’ll stop at two.

Inform your amorous roommate that in the cold sober light of day you regret what happened and don’t want to repeat it. It won’t “hurt� him; it will let him know where things stand, and it’s important that he get that message. If you do remain roommates, maintain some distance — and don’t come home

DEAR ABBY: I am a girl in high school and have a friend, “Joey,� who is gay. Joey saw another guy, “Eric,� who he thought was cute, and he made me go over and ask Eric’s friend if Eric is gay. His friend told me he is straight.

Eric lives in my neighborhood and we became good friends. He has asked me out and I would say yes, except that Joey said he likes him. Joey has never spoken to Eric and only likes him in an “appreciating� sense. And of course, there’s the fact that Eric isn’t gay.

What should I do? Does the “girl code� apply to your gay friends, too?

CONFLICTED IN THE SOUTH

DEAR CONFLICTED: With the “girl code,� girls agree not to date men another girl has her sights set on — theoretically, because there is the possibility that he can be snagged if there’s no interference.

But in a case like this, where a gay person “appreciates� someone who is straight, the chance is remote to nonexistent.

Out of consideration for Joey’s feelings, talk with him about this.

I’m sure he will appreciate your concern for his feelings — and give you his OK. DEAR ABBY: My cousin “Cecily� has been married for 30 years to a man the entire family thinks is wonderful. So did I, until I spotted him in a restaurant a few weeks ago kissing a woman half his age — and who was certainly not Cecily.

Reader seeks help with constant oral infections DEAR DR. GOTT: I follow your column in our local paper religiously, and your “No Flour-No Sugar� plan has made a big difference in the hypoglycemia condition that I seem to be prone to. Sadly, I don’t stick to it nearly often enough.

More specifically, I am 65 and probably an alcoholic — the result of a lifetime of bad choices and a couple of bad marriages.

I live (by choice) in a fairly remote part of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where medical advice is hard to come by.

I also have a history of oral cancer, despite not having smoked for more than 20 years. The only ENT doc available to me has decided that the “cut it out and biopsy it� approach every three months or so is the proper one.

While I quite understand that his approach is the most conservative one, I am barely healed up by the time I need to go see him again. A second opinion is not available to me up here, and I am truly miserable for the time it takes for my mouth to heal.

Do you have any suggestions on an alternative approach?

DEAR READER: I was immediately struck by your straightforward, nononsense summation. It is both healthful and refreshing.

Let’s take things a step at a time. My approach to weight loss expects that you might falter. That’s the beauty of it. If you choose to go out for a great pasta dinner, do it.

There shouldn’t be any guilt involved, but simply a wish to diversify briefly.

You can get back on track and take up where your diet left off.

Unfortunately, pounds have a way of creeping back on rather quickly, so it’s important you don’t splurge too often.

Present these options to your surgeon or dentist for his or her review. If you disagree with what you are told, locate the nearest teaching hospital, make an appointment, get a second opinion and carry on from there.

I feel awful with this knowledge, but feel worse about ruining their marriage. Do I have a responsibility to share this information with Cecily because she is family?

are pleased to be keeping production operations in our hometown of Milwaukee and in Tomahawk," company President and Chief Executive Keith Wandell said in a statement.

The seven-year contract freezes employees' pay, slashes hundreds of production jobs and assigns large volumes of work to part-time workers.

Some 1,140 union members from the suburban Milwaukee plant voted, approving the contract by a 55 to 45 percent margin. Almost 300 ballots were cast at the Tomahawk plant in northern Wisconsin, where workers

approved the deal by a margin of 73 to 27 percent.

A number of workers who voted to approve the deal said they did so grudgingly, accepting Harley's ultimatum for the sake of saving jobs.

Others said they voted against it because the terms were too harsh.

Harley said it had to play hardball because its labor costs at the two plants were too high. The concessions made the costs more manageable, it said, so it now makes sense to keep the plants open.

Under the previous rules, it could take as long as three months to let go

of unneeded workers or recall laidoff workers, Wandell told analysts this summer. Harley's goal was to gain the ability to hire and lay off workers more quickly to better adjust to seasonal business fluctuations, he said.

The company got what it wanted, but it's unclear whether the contract will lead to any lingering animosity.

Mike Masik, president of the local chapter of the United Steel Workers, said Tuesday it wasn't about wages or medical, but that the company took out language that allowed members decision-making abilities.

Agriculture program benefits farmers hurt by foreign trade imports

By Sheila Byrd The Associated Press JACKSON, Miss. — Time is running out for catfish farmers and others to sign up for a U.S. Department of Agriculture program offering training, cash benefits and government-funded consultation that might include advice to get out of the business.

The deadline to apply for the Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers program is Sept. 23, but it's hard to tell if it is generating much interest.

The program, funded with $90 million in stimulus money through the Foreign Agricultural Service, aims to help growers hurt by foreign imports. Asparagus growers and shrimpers in the Gulf and South Atlantic region are also eligible for the TAA this fiscal year.

There are some who doubt the program will make much of an impact for struggling catfish growers, whose total sales continue to drop each year amid higher feed costs and foreign competition.

"We've maintained mar-

ginal profitability, but we're swimming against the tide.

Most of our growers are not making any money at all," said Dickie Stevens, president of Consolidated Catfish Producers, an Isola processor that buys from 200 growers.

Most U.S. farms are located in Mississippi, Arkansas and Alabama.

Under the TAA program, farmers enroll in business training courses managed by the University of Minnesota's Center for Farm Financial Management. The courses would be coordinated with

local extension service offices or possibly online, said Gene Rosera, project manager for the TAA program.

The farmers could receive up to $12,000 for completing the program, including drawing up a business plan.

"They will be offering help to people who are looking at different business opportunities. Some may be getting out of the business they're in and starting something else," Rosera said. "We're not going to tell them how to best spend their money."

Boeing Co. tearing down historic Plant 2

By George Tibbits The Associated Press SEATTLE — The dilapidated factory that helped make Seattle a high-tech town is being demolished after 75 years, a casualty of time, technology and tails that grew too tall.

Boeing Co.'s Plant 2, a sprawling but long outdated building between Boeing Field and south Seattle's Duwamish River, gave birth to some of the world's most significant aircraft. It was the site of Seattle's biggest disappearing act and a home to "Rosie the Riveter," women who built thousands of World War II planes.

It's also where the mostly unskilled workers of a fish-and-timber town first learned the art of assembling aluminum,

Obituaries:

engines and electronics into sophisticated flying machines.

As the danger of global conflict grew, Boeing opened the factory in 1936 to build the prototype for the B-17 Flying Fortress. Eventually, nearly 13,000 of the bombers would be built, half of them at Plant 2.

Later in the war, it was where Boeing developed the B-29, a revolutionary plane with advanced radios, radars and computer-aided machine guns, that dropped the atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

"These were incredibly advanced

pieces of engineering and they were being made by people who would spend those war years learning how to be essentially the high-tech workers of their day," says Leonard Garfield, executive director of Seattle's Museum of History and Industry.

"So when we think about Seattle as a hotbed of high-tech innovation, it's not just from the recent years, it really can be traced very much to what happened in Plant 2."

Under an agreement with the state and federal governments and Indian tribes, Boeing will tear down the nearly empty factory to restore more than a half-mile of the Duwamish and create nearly 5 acres of wetlands. Demolition should begin this fall,

By Dinesh Ramde The Associated Press MILWAUKEE — HarleyDavidson Inc. agreed Tuesday to keep open its two Wisconsin production facilities, saying it gained the cost savings it needed when union members agreed a day earlier to a concession-laden contract.

The Milwaukee-based motorcycle company had warned that it would move the production to another state if its three Wisconsin unions rejected the deal. A move would have eliminated about 1,350 jobs.

BKHS preparing for HeBer'S ground game

Searcy Cubs split pair of games

The Daily Citizen The seventh grade Searcy Cubs Red and Black teams traveled to Little Rock Christian Monday and came away with one win and one loss on the day.

In the first game, the Black team scored on the first play from scrimmage on a Justice Cunningham touchdown from 70 yards out. Later in the half, Luke Dixon scored on a six yard touchdown run to make it 12-0.

A late touchdown by Little Rock Christian made the final score 12-6.

The seventh grade Red team trailed 8-0 at halftime and ended up taking a 28-0 loss.

Both teams are 1-1 on the season. They will be back in action Monday against Batesville. The games will begin at 5 p.m. The Red team will play first, followed by the Black team.

elbow knocks pujols out of lineup

By R.B. Fallstrom The Associated Press ST. LOUIS — Albert Pujols was held out of the St. Louis Cardinals' lineup Tuesday night due to tendinitis in his left elbow.

Pujols had a cortisone injection Monday night and team medical staff decided he should sit out of the second game of the Pujols series against the Chicago Cubs. Pujols, who had made 50 consecutive starts, anticipates returning to the lineup Wednesday night.

Pujols said the injury has bothered him for about two weeks and underwent an MRI exam last Sunday.

"It just got frustrating to the point that I'm like 'Listen, we need to do something,'" Pujols said. "I've been playing with pain and taking anti-inflammatories, and an injection hopefully works. It's pretty painful."

Manager Tony La Russa said Pujols needed a break to let the injury calm down, and the three-time NL MVP was day to day. Pujols took some swings Tuesday and said the elbow felt better, and might be available for pinchhit duty.

La Russa held up making out the lineup card before checking with Pujols.

Pujols was injured when he landed awkwardly while trying to make a diving play earlier this month in Pittsburgh, and aggravated the injury attempting to make another diving play in Washington.

He has complained of soreness lately, and considered flying back to St. Louis last week when the team was in Milwaukee.

Bulldogs ready for RB Mays

A

By Chris O’Dell codell@thedailycitizen.com fter two consecutive wins to start the season, the Bald Knob football team will get its toughest test of the early season Friday night.

Markeyvus Mays and the Heber Springs ground attack will be in Bald Knob to take on the Bulldogs, following their 28-14 win over Harding Academy last week. Mays ran for more than 300 yards and two touchdowns against a Wildcat defense that had little trouble shutting down All-State running back Mark Makin and Fountain Lake in week one. “[Mays] is a great running back,” Bald Knob head coach Paul Johnston said. “We will have to keep him contained.

They’re a well-coached team at every position though, not just running back.”

After dominating Pocahontas in week one, the Bulldogs had little trouble against Newport last week, winning 42-21. Johnston said the team looked good in week two, but still have adjustments to make before the Heber Springs game.

“It was a great team victory,” Johnston said. “But we still have some things we’ve got to improve.”

Johnston said the offensive line was strong at pass blocking and senior Jordan Johnston was stellar in the Bulldogs’ ground game.

“Johnston really picked up his game,” Paul Johnston said. “He keeps improving his game each week.”

The Bald Knob offense put up 21 points in each half behind their sophomore quarterback Cordell Crisp, who Johnston said is looking better each week.

“At times he looked really good,” Johnston said. “He threw a couple of interceptions on balls that were underthrown. He has a strong arm. He just tried to put too much touch on a couple of passes.”

Senior defensive tackle Zack Shoebottom said the team’s defensive line needs to make more plays against Heber Springs than it has in the first two weeks of the season.

“We really need to improve our D-line play,” Shoebottom said. “We haven’t made many plays on the line this season.”

Shoebottom said getting a quick jump will be a major key to shutting down Mays and the Heber Springs ground game.

“Getting off the ball and beating them on the snap is what we will have to do,” Shoebottom said.

Bald Knob quarterback Cordell Crisp breaks free from a Pocahontas defender and scrambles out of the pocket. Crisp and the Bulldog offense might be forced to put up big numbers in order to come away with a win against Heber Springs this Friday in Bald Knob.

Jacob Brower/jbrower@thedailycitizen.com

Sophomore linebacker Hunter McGillvray said the defense has been working on several things to throw Heber Springs’ offense off guard Friday night.

“We’ve added in a couple of new coverages,” McGillvray.

“We’ll be able to show them several new looks now.”

Despite watching game film from the Heber Springs and

Harding Academy game, the Bulldogs still feel confident about their chances against their week three opponent.

“We know it’s going to be a battle,” Shoebottom said. “But we know we can beat them.”

Bald Knob and Heber Springs will battle at the Bulldog’s new stadium Friday night. Kick-off is set for 7:30 p.m.

Hogs look to cut down on turnovers

By Chuck Bartels The Associated Press LITTLE ROCK — As Arkansas gets ready for a tough stretch that begins with its Southeastern Conference opener at Georgia, Razorbacks coach Bobby Petrino has a few things he's concerned about.

For one thing, Arkansas (2-0), which moved up two spots to No. 12 after a 31-7 win over Louisiana Monroe, had three turnovers Saturday — matching the previous week's total in its 44-3 victory over Tennessee Tech.

"I'm not happy at all with our turnovers in our first two games," Petrino said.

Another issue: The offense got off to a slow start against Louisiana Monroe, with just one touchdown in the first half.

"I get the feeling sometimes with our offense that they think they can just go out and everything good is going to happen right away," Petrino said. "You have to wear them out."

Quarterback Ryan Mallett, who had trouble connecting, acknowledged the problems and gave some of the credit to the Warhawks' defense.

"You can't do that, especially going into SEC play," Mallett said.

"That is something that we will address Monday."

Mallett, who threw three touchdown passes and ran for another, also had a lost fumble and an interception. Greg Childs, who had a dozen catches for 146 yards and two touchdowns, lost a fumble too.

Arkansas' Chris Childs fumbles the ball inside the redzone. The Hogs are looking to cut down on turnovers for the rest of the 2010 season.

Arkansas News Bureau

With the game at Georgia (1-1, 0-1) this week, Arkansas is starting a four-game stretch in which it has just one home game — against the nation's top-ranked team. The Razorbacks return home on Sept.

25 to face No. 1 Alabama. Then they play Texas A&M in Dallas on Oct. 9, followed by a trip to No. 16

Auburn on Oct. 16.

Petrino complained that the team didn't perform as it should have in the first half Saturday, but also blamed himself for calling too many running plays.

"I get the feeling sometimes with our offense that they think they can just go out and everything good is

going to happen right away," Petrino said. "You have to wear them out."

The fans shared his frustration.

After a motion penalty that was followed by a delay of game penalty, boos floated down from the 55,705 fans who packed into Little Rock's War Memorial Stadium. All appeared forgiven when Arkansas started scoring in the second half.

Mallett finished 28 of 43 for 400 yards, while running back Broderick Green led the Razorbacks in rushing with 45 yards on 12 carries.

Dennis Johnson gained 25 yards on six carries and Knile Davis had five carries for 22 yards. The Razorbacks had net rushing of 99 yards against Louisiana Monroe.

Mallett said the offense made adjustments to get his receivers underneath the Warhawks' man-toman coverage scheme. The offense had the luxury of waiting for halftime to make changes thanks to the defense.

"The defense played great," Mallett said. "They really held ULM on the ropes for us and kept us in the game."

Louisiana Monroe lone touchdown drive — 70 yards in four plays — came in the fourth quarter, well after the outcome was decided.

The Razorbacks held Louisiana Monroe's leading rusher Frank Goodin to 46 yards on 12 carries and gave up a net 116 yards on the ground. Quarterback Kolton Browning finished with 7 of 17 passing for 74 yards and a touchdown.

Florida’s Rainey arrested and charged with stalking The Associated Press GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Florida receiver Chris Rainey has been charged with aggravated stalking, a third-degree felony.

Florida has not announced what disciplinary action it will take against Rainey, Rainey though Gators offensive coordinator Steve Addazio said Tuesday, "Chris Rainey is not a part of our team right now. That's really all I have to say on that."

Rainey was released from the Alachua County Jail on his own recognizance Tuesday and ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim.

The alleged victim also was in court with her mother and sister. The woman told Judge Denise R. Ferrero she does not fear Rainey but was concerned about retribution from the public following all the media attention.

She also asked for the charges to be dropped.

The Daily Citizen

"I did not want to have him arrested," she said. "When the police came, I signed papers to not press any charges. I don't fear for my safety. ...

People all over the country have been calling my cell phone. I'm not afraid of him.

I'm more afraid of all the repercussions."

The Gainesville Sun first reported Rainey's arrest.

According to Gainesville Police, Rainey sent the

woman he dated on and off the last three years a text message that read, "Time to die," after leaving her home Monday night.

Officer Jesse Bostick said the woman fell asleep and missed a call from Rainey.

The Associated Press MILWAUKEE — Green Bay Packers running back Ryan Grant is out for the season with a right ankle injury, a significant blow to the team after he piled up 1,200 yards in each of the past two seasons.

The Packers also placed former first-round pick Justin Harrell on injured reserve and signed running back Dimitri Nance and defensive end Jarius Wynn to fill their spots on the roster headed into Sunday's home game against Buffalo.

"When you lose a running back of Ryan's caliber, it's a big loss, but this is something we have to deal

L

ITTLE ROCK — Officially, the play that earned an asterisk never happened.

Auburn had third down on the Mississippi State 12 when Cam Newton made a fake of sorts and started right.

Confronted by a defensive lineman and a helpmate, Newton initiated contact with his left shoulder, netted 6 yards and bounced up ready for more.

A flag wiped away the gain, but Newton’s 19-pass, 18-run participation in the offense was so complete that it made it difficult to assess the other Southeastern Conference quarterbacks that Arkansas will see on the road.

Mississippi State has one quarterback who can run some and one who can throw some. South Carolina’s Stephen Garcia wasn’t asked to do much and Georgia’s Aaron Murray wasn’t allowed to do much. All five were on TV last week in two Southeastern Conference games, but Murray is the one of immediate interest since Arkansas is at Athens on Saturday.

The redshirt freshman was hamstrung because he had no playmakers available, his playbook was limited and an offensive line that was supposed to knock down everybody in sight didn’t block much.

The return of running

surgery could keep Grant sidelined for up to three months.

"Guess everyone has heard the news," Grant posted on his Twitter account.

"Frustrating, disappointing, all the normal emotions."

Grant, who is in the third year of a four-year contract, was wearing a protective walking boot on his right foot after the injury and said after Sunday's game that his ankle was only sprained and not broken. On Tuesday, he said there was a chance he could return this season after surgery, but it would have been very late and put the Packers in a bind with their roster moving forward.

HARRY KING

back Caleb King will help some; the availability of A.J. Green — maybe the best wide receiver in the country — would help a bunch.

Georgia coach Mark Richt said he thought Murray, a five-star recruit, had handled the responsibility of the job and that “I think we can open it up a little bit and let him play.�

In the loss to South Carolina, Murray completed 14-of-21 for 192 yards, but the Bulldogs managed only 11 first downs. Despite that ineptness, Georgia only trailed 14-6 when Washaun Ealey lost a fumble near the Gamecocks’ goal.

One of the surprising things about the loss was Georgia’s lack of physical play on defense. Freshman running back Marcus Lattimore had something to do with that, and he is the one who said: “They were just standing around, looking around. We were just running the ball, running right up the gut. They didn’t know what to do.�

Expect something better against the Razorbacks.

Arkansas’ running game was disappointing in the victory over LouisianaMonroe and coach Bobby Petrino said it was because the Warhawks were determined to stop the run. Still, it seems an SEC team would be able to do better than 99 yards rushing against a middle-of-the-pack Sun Belt Conference opponent.

Newton, Garcia and the Mississippi State tandem of Chris Relf and Tyler Russell are eligible for closer inspection in the weeks preceding Oct. 16, Nov. 6 and Nov. 20, but Newton is an athlete to behold.

His ability to run is unquestioned; his passing is not so easily defined. He threw one pass that should have been intercepted for a touchdown and one that was picked off. At 6-foot-6 and 250 or so, he was Auburn’s leading rusher in each of the first two games. Auburn coach Gene Chizik’s preference is that a tailback lead the team in rushing.

Sort of like what is happening at South Carolina.

There, Garcia’s job was mostly to hand the ball to Lattimore. That sort of offense goes against the grain of South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier, but 2-0 makes it palatable.

Against Georgia, Garcia threw 17 times. At the very least, Ryan Mallett will probably double that number.

Grant was hurt in the second quarter of Green Bay's 27-20 win at Philadelphia on Sunday. Packers coach Mike McCarthy said a day later that Grant's injury involved ligament damage.

More tests had been scheduled for Tuesday, and the results weren't encouraging enough to try to bring Grant back this season.

By Alan Robinson The Associated Press PITTSBURGH — Dennis Dixon didn't throw a touchdown pass, stretch the defense with his running or do anything to suggest Dixon he won't be back on the bench when Ben Roethlisberger's suspension is over.

What mattered most to Steelers coach Mike Tomlin was that Dixon didn't lose.

Dixon will be Pittsburgh's starting quarterback Sunday at Tennessee, even though the injured Byron Leftwich may return to practice as early as Wednesday. Until Leftwich injured a left knee ligament during the final exhibition game Sept.

2, Leftwich was expected to start throughout

Roethlisberger's four-game suspension.

Tomlin, who is choosing his starter on a week-to-week basis while Roethlisberger is out, said Dixon did enough things well during a seasonopening 15-9 overtime victory over Atlanta to stay in the lineup.

Dixon completed 18 of 26 passes for 236 yards and an interception in his second NFL start, shaking off a series of underthrown passes early in the game to become more accurate in the second half.

Even if, Tomlin said Tuesday, "I'd like the throws to be more on target."

"There were some situations early in the game where he was delivering the ball to the appropriate target, but it was falling short," Tomlin said. "I thought as the game wore on, he was creating a little bit. I thought him stepping up in the pocket and hitting Hines (Ward) on a third-and-

9-plus was the signature play of the game. Of course, we're going with him because we feel he's going to continue to evolve."

Dixon probably won't have left tackle Max Starks to protect his blind side against the Titans (1-0), who beat Oakland 38-13 behind Chris Johnson's 142 yards rushing.

Starks (sprained left ankle) probably can't practice until the end of the week at the earliest, which means former Bills lineman Jonathan Scott might start. Right tackle Flozell Adams won't move to left tackle, although that's his natural position.

Pittsburgh also may be without nose tackle Casey Hampton (hamstring), an excellent run defender and probably the one defensive player the Steelers would least like to lose before going against Johnson, the NFL's top rusher last season with 2,006 yards.

Bush forfeits 2005 Heisman Trophy

Arkansas' Ryan Mallett looks for running room during the Razorbacks' win over Louisianna-Monroe Saturday. Arkansas News Bureau

Hogs OK for now with pass-first offense the Heisman Trophy hopeful wasn't satisfied with the Razorbacks' performance, not with SEC play about to begin with a brutal one-two punch — No. 1 Alabama follows Georgia.

"Obviously, there's got to be improvement," Mallett said. "You know, we didn't run the ball great against (Monroe), but it's hard to do when they put nine people in the box. But we've got to have the mentality that, 'You can put all 11 in the box and we'll be able to run the ball.'"

Arkansas has thrown for an average of 361.5 yards per game in its opening two wins, averaging 36.5 pass attempts per game compared to 29.5 rushing attempts. The overall pass/run ratio doesn't bother Petrino, who is more concerned with first-down balance in play-calling, as long as the Razorbacks are still gaining yards.

"If we keep running the ball and getting 5 yards a crack, then we'll feel good

The Associated Press FAYETTEVILLE — Bobby Petrino doesn't sound all that concerned about the apparent lack of a running game for No. 12 Arkansas.

Considering that the Razorbacks lead the Southeastern Conference in both passing and total offense through two weeks, it's Petrino hard to argue with the Arkansas coach.

The Razorbacks (2-0) open SEC play this week when they travel to Georgia (1-1), which is coming off a 17-6 loss to South Carolina.

While Arkansas has piled up an average of 509 yards of offense in its opening wins, the rushing game is 10th in the conference with an average of 147.5 yards per game.

The Razorbacks opened the season with 196 yards rushing in a win over Tennessee Tech, averaging 7 yards per carry.

However, in last week's 31-7 win over Louisiana-Monroe, they managed just 99 yards on the ground on 31 carries, an average of 3.2 yards per rush.

Petrino credited the Warhawks' defense, which was designed to stop Arkansas' running game.

"I felt like (against Monroe) we should have just (thrown) it more," Petrino said Monday.

"Maybe we were being stubborn when there was nine or 10 guys down in the box."

Despite the struggles on the ground, Arkansas junior quarterback Ryan Mallett still threw for 400 yards on 28 of 43 passing in the win. However,

about that," Petrino said. "But there is a time when you need to get chunk plays running the ball also. That really helps your momentum when you can do that."

The rushing attack took a step back on Monday when Petrino announced that junior Dennis Johnson will miss the Georgia game because of a "bowel injury" suffered during last week's win. Johnson, the school's career leader in kickoff return yards, has 85 yards rushing on eight carries this season, including a team-best 49-yard run in the opening win over Tennessee Tech.

Arkansas has rotated its carries among four different running backs so far this season, a fact Petrino said will continue in Johnson's absence.

Petrino also said junior De'Anthony Curtis would likely see extra time in practice while Johnson is out, as well as possibly senior fullback Van Stumon.

The Heritage SUNDAY BRUNCH

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press NEW YORK — Reggie Bush says he is forfeiting his Heisman Trophy.

The New Orleans Saints' running back released a statement Tuesday saying he would Bush give back the award that he won in 2005 while he was at Southern California.

It's the first time college football's top award was returned by a recipient.

"While this decision is heart-breaking, I find solace in knowing that the award was made possible by the support and love of so many," Bush said. "Those are gifts that can never be taken away."

USC was hit with heavy sanctions by the NCAA this summer after it determined Bush had received improper benefits. The NCAA ruled that Bush was ineligible for the 2005 season, which

opened the possibility that the Heisman Trophy Trust would take back the award.

One of the few guidelines given to Heisman Trophy voters is that a player must be in compliance with NCAA rules to be eligible for the trophy.

The eight-member Heisman Trophy Trust, based in New York, had said it would have to consider what to do about Bush, who won

in a landslide vote over Texas quarterback Vince Young.

There was no immediate word from the Heisman Trust if the award would be vacated or given to Young.

"My opinion would be; I would love for the Heisman Trust to look at a re-vote or give it to the second guy, which therefore would be Vince," Texas coach Mack Brown said.

Bridge

Take the high road if the low is risky

By Phillip Alder

It is a common problem at the bridge table: You can win the first trick, but should you take it or duck it?

There are various guidelines, but try to analyze each case on its own.

In today’s deal, you are in four spades. West leads the diamond king.

What would be your plan?

North was correct to make a simple, not a jump, overcall because you would need little to make three no-trump a viable contract: ace-doubleton of clubs and a couple of other goodies. Your twospade advance was forcing for one round by partnership agreement. And three diamonds, a new suit at the three-level, was also forcing.

You should win the first trick, unblock the club ace, and play a low trump toward dummy’s queen. How does West defend?

If he ducks, you win with the queen and discard a diamond on the club king.

Yes, it’s lucky West has ace-doubleton of spades, but if he had ace-third, you would have had no chance.

If West wins the third trick and continues with top diamonds, you trump the third round in the dummy, ruff a club in your hand, draw trumps, and concede a heart, your diamond nine being high.

What happens if you duck the first trick? West should then cash the spade ace and play another spade (which would have killed the contract if he had done it at the first two tricks). You may draw trumps, unblock the club ace, and try to get to dummy with a heart, but West can stop you: He ducks if you lead the king, or wins if you play your low card.

Astrograph AstroGraph Your Birthday Wednesday, September 15, 2010 It would be smart to insulate your business contacts from your social acquaintances at all times in the year ahead, because one could get in the way of the other and cause you trouble. Enjoy quality time with each, without letting them overlap.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Guard against strong inclinations to take any material risks. Something might sound good, but unless you fully understand it, you’ll be taking a flyer on a potential loss.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - It might seem like the clever thing to do, but getting your associates to handle things for you instead of doing the work yourself

will end poorly. Be self-sufficient.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Don’t do anything that could greatly weaken your financial wherewithal if things go south. Loading up more debt will place you in a hopeless position.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - More losses will naturally occur if you are impractical regarding the management of your working funds. It would be like asking the fox to watch the henhouse for you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Although you might see yourself possessing advantages in certain areas, your judgment may be based solely on a whole bunch of wishful thinking. Face the facts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Even if there are ample opportunities around you where relationships are concerned, it isn’t likely that you will know how to use them in ways that could benefit you.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - Be particularly careful when it comes to anything that could affect some financial dealings you have with friends. Take care not to make any questionable maneuvers.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) - There is nothing

wrong with your ability to size up situations accurately, but that doesn’t mean you’ll follow what your common sense tells you to do. It’ll be your loss if you don’t.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - It’ll be hard to unwind something that goes awry between you and a few others, if neither you nor they are willing to accept what the problem might be.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - Miscalculations are possible, owing to, first, your questionable judgment, and second, seeking counsel from some inept advisors. Analyze the advice of those who don’t agree with you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) - People rarely change, so don’t place your faith in the very people who have disappointed you in the past. Just because you want to believe they’re different, this isn’t likely to be the case.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Anything you allow to slip between the cracks will crowd you into a corner as time goes on, so, if you’re smart, you’ll get all your duties and responsibilities taken care of right now.
