‘History that will never be replaced’ Crystal Springs sifts through rubble, ashes By Danny Barrett Jr. dbarrett@vicksburgpost.com and Katie Carter kcarter@vicksburgpost.com

Scientists: Gulf waters sickly after oil spill By The Associated Press

Bricks and mortar weren’t all that was lost amid the rubble left behind by Monday’s fire in downtown Crystal Springs, as officials worked to determine the cause of the pre-dawn blaze. “This is history that will never be replaced,” said Todd Neal — a member of Masonic Lodge No. 452, one of four tenants left without a home when flames tore through a block buildings on South Jackson Street that dated to 1927. The structure also housed Mr. D’s Restaurant, a frame shop and an alteration business. Other businesses burned or damaged by water were Grace Bible Mission, Economy Rexall Drugs, the old Trinity Cafe, FasTax and two apartments upstairs from the cafe. No injuries were reported. “Everybody’s connected to these buildings down here,” said Daniel Curtis, of Gallman, who owns a storage building across the street that escaped major damage. “The major tragedy is it won’t be built back.” Gates Garland owns Garland’s Furniture & Antiques down the block from the burned-out buildings. He said the business operated for about 30 years from where the restaurant was located and remembers running around in the old store as a teen. “It’s a miracle I didn’t burn

ST. PETE BEACH, Fla. — Six months after the rig explosion that led to the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history, damage to the Gulf of Mexico can be measured more in increments than extinctions, say scientists polled by The Associated Press. In an informal survey, 35 researchers who study the Gulf lowered their rating of its ecological health by several points, compared to their assessment before the BP well gushed millions of gallons of oil. But the drop in grade wasn’t dramatic. On a scale of 0 to 100, the overall average grade for the oiled Gulf was 65 — down from 71 before the spill. This reflects scientists’ views that the spilled 172 million gallons of oil further eroded what was already a beleaguered body of water — tainted for years by farm runoff from the Mississippi River, overfishing, and oil from smaller spills and natural seepage. The spill wasn’t the near-death blow initially See Gulf, Page A2.

County takes out loan until taxes arrive By Danny Barrett Jr. dbarrett@vicksburgpost.com

Port bosses study again options for Ceres house By Danny Barrett Jr. dbarrett@vicksburgpost.com It’s back to square one for the Ceres Plantation House. Four of five members of the Warren County Port Commission agreed Monday to take new offers to remove and/or demolish the old farm house, a smaller pool house and a barn located on a 41-acre section of property at the Ceres Research and Industrial Interplex just off

the Flowers exit from Interstate 20. Two proposals taken in February to demolish the main structure and the pool house were thrown out. “I just want to give it one more shot at moving it,” chairman Johnny Moss said, adding publicity generated by eight months of talk over a possible state landmark status might bring out serious offers to move rather than raze the house, built in the 1830s and altered mul-

Mayor’s Youth Council takes on etiquette By Manivanh Chanprasith mchan@vicksburgpost.com A course on etiquette and protocol, sponsored by the Mayor’s Youth Council, kicked into session Monday as about 50 youngsters arrived ready to learn how to be model citizens. The council’s Youth Leadership Core Training Program is presenting the six-week course in Vicksburg in hopes that other places in the state will follow suit. “It’s not just about talking the talk,” said Mayor Paul Winfield, who formed the youth council when he took office in 2009, “it’s about walking the walk. This is an important part of youth development and every community that is going to move

forward has to always be mindful of its youths.” The course is offered in two age categories — 7 to 12 and 13 to 18 — and students will be trained by instructors from the Jackson-based Mississippi School of Protocol & Etiquette. They will cover social and communication skills, self-esteem and confidence building, interviewing skills and table manners. Registration ended Friday. “One of the first things we teach the students is the difference between hearing and listening,” said Jay Pearson, director of MSPE and a certified graduate of the Protocol School of Washington, accredited through the U.S. Department of Education. See Etiquette, Page A7.

A third government loan in three years is expected to keep Warren County’s general and infrastructure-related funds afloat until spring when property tax payments arrive. The so-called tax anticipation note worth $3.5 million acts as a cash advance to ensure revenue matches levels predicted in this year’s budget. Besides the general fund, the loan will shore up the road and bridge fund and must be paid back by April 1, County Administrator John Smith said. State law allows counties to borrow up to 25 percent of estimated taxes on real property in a given year. Loans to the county the past two years met bond payment deadlines on emergency dispatch equipment and past improvements at the Port of Vicksburg, each totaling about $1.5 million, Smith said. Ending cash balances for the entire budget reached $2.596 million when fiscal 2010 ended, short of a $5.5 million target to avoid another short-term loan, Smith said. A public hearing date to take comments on the move is expected. Supervisors adopted a $14.8 general fund budget for 2010-11, which planned for balanced spending and revenue in county government despite strong expectations of less revenue from the state on items like homestead See County, Page A7.

down, too,” Garland said. “I was behind the building stomping out sparks coming over the roof on the wind.” Investigators with the Mississippi State Fire Marshal’s Office were at the scene throughout the day Monday. The cause of the blaze is under investigation, though agency officials said the flames originated on a back wall of the restaurant’s kitchen area. They commended the response of firefighters in Crystal Springs and several other agencies who responded to the blaze, which officials said began about 1 a.m. Monday.

Cost assessments of the damage were expected today as the city helps property owners come up with a plan to revitalize the most damaged parcels, Mayor Arthur Lee Evans said this morning. Classes at three local schools and a Head Start center were to resume today, Evans said. “You hate to lose anything old because it won’t ever be put back,” said Robert Sims, the city’s public works superintendent. Power was restored to adjacent blocks before midday Monday, Entergy spokesman Kenny Goza said.

feared. Nor is it the glancing strike that some relieved experts and officials said it was in midsummer. “It is like a concussion,” said Larry McKinney, who heads the Gulf of Mexico research center at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. “We got hit hard and we certainly are seeing some symptoms of it.” Will the symptoms stick around or just become yesterday’s headaches? That’s the question that couldn’t be answered at a conference earlier this month of 150 scientists at a hotel on a Florida beach untainted by the spill. The St. Pete Beach gathering was organized by the White House science office to coordinate future

research. “There’s the sense that it’s not as bad as we had originally feared; it’s not that worst case scenario,” said Steve Lohrenz, a biological oceanographer at the University of Southern Mississippi. “There’s still a lot of wariness of what that long-term impact is going to be.” Steve Murawski, the chief fisheries scientist for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, compared scientists research to a TV crime drama: “It’s the end of the story that counts, not all the steps along the way.” We’re only at the 30-minute break in an hour-long drama, Murawski said.

A Vicksburg man was arrested Monday night for a February fire that destroyed one home and damaged two others on Main Street. Bobby Blackmore, 54, 901 Warrenton Road, is charged with arson, said Vicksburg police Lt. Bobby Stewart. He is accused of setting fire to 1402 Main St., a vacant home, on Feb. 23. Also damaged were 1400 and 1404 Main. All three were owned by the estate of James Buie. Blackmore was arrested during a traffic stop about 6 p.m. Monday. He was indicted May 5, Stewart said, and police had been seeking him since. Blackmore was in the Warren County Jail without bond pending an initial court appearance.

Vicksburg man held on probation violation A Vicksburg man was in the Warren County Jail this morning, charged with probation violation, Warren County Jail records showed. Anthony Johnson, 29, 144 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., was booked at 10:45 a.m. Monday. He was being held without bond for the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

William E. Johnston, M.D. Family Medicine - General Practice Mission Primary Care Clinic

Dr. Paul D. Murry Chiropractic Physician River City Chiropractic Clinic, LLC Why do chiropractors recommend routine care even if you aren’t in pain?

How can I keep from getting cold sores?

Answer: Although having a cold sore isn’t a big deal, it’s a good idea to try to keep cold sores as far away as possible. If someone you know has a cold sore don’t kiss him or her and don’t drink out of the same glass or use the same knife, fork or spoon. Sharing towels, washcloths, or napkins is off-limits, too, because the virus may survive on the fabric. For some, too much stress, too much time in the sun, or getting sick can cause cold sores to reappear. Eating well, getting enough rest and learning how to deal with stress are important things you can do to help prevent cold sores. Putting sunblock, lip balm and sunscreen on the face before going out in the sun may help prevent cold sores from reappearing in kids who tend to get them.

Answer: Your chiropractor recommends routine checkups for early detection of possible health problems just as your doctor or dentist does. The physical stresses that we put our bodies through on a daily basis can put stress on ligaments and joints causing spinal misalignments. Therefore chiropractic care is recommended more frequently to detect these spinal misalignments early before they become chronic and painful. If left untreated, chronic spinal misalignments can cause abnormal wear on the joints leading to early degenerative arthritis. It is much easier to maintain healthy joints with routine chiropractic care than it is to correct a chronic condition.

I've read that when you get older, medicine may work differently in your body. Is that true?

Being overweight can cause a lot of health problems. Is there a link between obesity and gum disease?

My child recently had an ear infection, what about fluid that stays in the middle ear?

Answer: Age-related physical changes (such as slower metabolism, decrease in liver or kidney function, decrease in body fluid, increase in body fat) may cause certain drugs' effects to be less predictable in older adults than in younger or middle-aged people. Because of this, your physician may alter or reduce the standard adult dose for you. That's why it is important to always take your medications exactly as directed by your physician In addition, older adults become less tolerant of medication side effects and may experience more episodes of adverse drug events. Certain medications have the potential to cause dizziness, which can lead to falls and injury. The risk for such adverse drug effects increases for folks over age 65. Below are some other common concerns for seniors, with suggestions on how to meet the challenges they present: When you take many different medications, the risk of adverse drug effects dramatically increases with each additional drug. Make sure your doctor or pharmacist knows about all medications you are prescribed, as well as vitamins or supplements you are taking. The more complex your dosage schedule, the greater the risk of errors in taking your medication. It may be useful for you to use daily medication containers or a color-coded system to help reduce your risk of a mix-up.

Office Supplies

Answer: Recent studies by the International Association for Dental Research has shown a strong indication of a possible relationship between obesity and periodontal disease (gum disease). Additional studies are still required to determine the exact relationship between the two conditions. Adverse health conditions associated with obesity include cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and stroke. Risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes are obesity, age and lack of physical activity. Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of developing periodontal disease.

Answer: Your child's hearing may be affected if fluid stays in the middle ear after an infection. This is called otitis media with effusion. (Effusion is another word for fluid buildup.) Usually the fluid goes away in two to three months, and hearing returns to normal. Your doctor may want to check your child again at this time to see if fluid is still present. If the fluid stays for more than a few months, your doctor may want to check your child's hearing. Your doctor may recommend ear tubes (also called tympanostomy tubes) to drain the fluid. Ear tubes may also decrease the number of ear infections your child gets.

China tariffs

40 YEARS AGO: 1970

Senate, Obama should be wary of threats The U.S. House has given American trade and economics officials new ammunition with passage of a bill that would allow the Commerce Department to impose tariffs on all imported goods from countries that manipulate their currency to encourage exports. The bill is aimed straight at China, which has consistently undervalued its currency. But as any beat cop can testify, waving around a loaded gun can be dangerous. What the wobbly U.S. economy does not need is a trade war. Fortunately, new tariffs can’t be imposed unless the Senate acts on the House bill, and that won’t happen until after the election. Sens. Debbie Stabenow, D-Michigan; and Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., have similar legislation pending in their chamber. Stabenow wrote in The Detroit News recently that China’s undervalued currency “has farreaching effects on the global economy.” She added that the loss of 4.7 million American manufacturing jobs in the last decade shows how “devastatingly effective” China’s currency policy has been. A national unemployment rate in the 10 percent range and the loss of millions of jobs does make

the political atmosphere ripe for demagoguery on trade. But the administration and cooler heads in the Senate can’t allow themselves to be stampeded by the House vote, which passed the bill with a large, bipartisan margin. The vote was 348-79. So far, President Barack Obama has imposed tariffs on certain Chinese steel products and tires, and China has responded with countervailing tariffs on U.S. poultry products. The situation can’t be allowed to deteriorate. If the House currency bill gives the administration more credibility in its talks with the Chinese on currency, or serves as a catalyst for members of the International Monetary Fund meeting in Washington this weekend to try to bring some kind of pressure on the Chinese to allow their currency to float more flexibly on international currency exchanges, fine. But the Chinese will not want to be seen to be buckling solely under U.S. pressure. U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Wednesday said some sort of international “mechanism” is needed with the authority to nudge countries to revalue their currencies so that they are not serving as export

subsidies. An undervalued currency makes exports cheaper and imports more expensive. But contrary to the assertions of Stabenow, America’s economic problems cannot be laid at China’s doorstep. High costs and global competition had more to do with the demise of U.S. manufacturing than the price of the Chinese yuan against the dollar. As the Wall Street Journal has pointed out, Japan 25 years ago was accused of manipulating its currency, and it revalued its yen under U.S. pressure, but this country still has a trade deficit with Japan. It should be remembered that China is our third largest trading partner, and Michigan in 2008 exported $1 billion worth of goods to that country. It won’t help to make tense trade relations with China even worse, especially since it is a major holder of U.S. debt. The best course is to pursue Geithner’s suggestion of an international effort aimed at all countries that undervalue their currency rather than just paint a bull’s-eye on China. That will have a better chance of achieving the goal of a more realistic balance between China’s currency and the dollar.

MODERATELY CONFUSED by Bill Stahler

Chilean miners: Strange notion of must-see reality TV The ABC network blockbuster TV hit “Dancing With The Stars” normally draws an audience of around 20 million viewers. The premise is pretty simple — DWTS is a reality TV show that is to dancing on TV what NASCAR is to auto racing on TV. While some operate under the delusion that folks watch the show to see how well people are dancing or for the simple love of dance, most are honest enough to admit they watch it to see how poorly some dance and to flat out watch others fall on their literal or figurative keesters.

You want drama? But the show is about watching people perform under pressure. That’s supposedly the draw of all reality TV. Bottom line, DWTS is outdraw-

ing “Monday Night Football” by a couple of million viewers. But how would DWTS do against actual lifeand-death human drama? Consider the poor Chilean miners trapped a half-mile underground for 70 days and the epic rescue. The miners were rescued in a procedure using an escape pod designed by NASA that had never been

tested. The procedure was fraught with danger at every turn for each of the 33 miners and their rescuers. When the first miner was rescued in the 11 p.m. hour on last Tuesday, CNN’s audience was just under 4 million. In the same hour, Fox had 3.5 million viewers and MSNBC drew 1.1 million. That’s right. At the peak, about 8.6

million Americans chose to watch the harrowing actual drama of fellow humans being courageously rescued from what had earlier been considered the darkest, deepest grave imaginable with uncertain technology that could fail at any moment. Total success depended on the untested procedure working some 35 times in a row. What if the pod malfunctioned? What if the pod jammed the escape path before all the miners were rescued? Talk about people under pressure and actual human drama.

Priorities? Bottom line, American TV viewers simply had more interest in whether Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino got voted off DWTS for turning in a bad Argentine tango

than whether 33 Chilean miners lived, died or were rescued. One can only wonder what the numbers would have been if the rescue had begun during “Monday Night Football.” I suppose my age is showing. My mind went back to other events in human history shared by American TV audiences through a virtual single view — Neil Armstrong landing on the moon, the assassination of JFK, the space shuttle disasters, the collapse of the Berlin Wall and others. With computers, iPads and hundreds of cable TV channels, perhaps that notion of “the world watching” anything and marveling at miracles are things of the past. •

smart money Q: I have a little studio apartment over my garage that I rent out. Recently it became empty, so I put an ad in our local paper. I had a potential renter want to start renting immediately. They BRUCE checked out, gave me the security deposit and a day before they were to move in, called and said they couldn’t take the apartment after all. She wants her deposit back, but I’m not so sure she should get all of it

WILLIAMS

back — after all, I took it off the market because she was going to rent it and now I’m out that money. — Sandra, via e-mail A: The purpose of a security deposit is that it’s a guarantee that both parties will perform as expected.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats are making a preelection pitch to give Social Security recipients a onetime payment of $250, part of a larger effort to convince senior voters that their party, and not Republicans, will best look out for the 58 million people who get the government retirement and dis-

ability benefits. The $250 check is meant to make up for a second year without a cost-of-living increase due to low inflation. President Barack Obama has urged Congress to approve the $250 payment. House and Senate Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid say they will bring up the

legislation when lawmakers return for the lame-duck session in November. In the meantime, Democrats are using the proposal to augment their campaign pitch that Republicans would undermine Social Security. “Instead of helping seniors,” Pelosi’s office said, “Republicans, backed by their allies on

Wall Street, are threatening to privatize and cut Social Security, just as they tried to do under President Bush.” Added Reid, “The only thing standing in the way of America’s seniors receiving this critical support are Senate Republicans.”

Stocks down sharply amid mixed earnings reports NEW YORK (AP) — Investors pushed stocks sharply down today as they digested news from a flurry of earnings reports from corporate heavyweights. Disappointing news from Apple Inc. and IBM Corp. pushed the technology-heavy Nasdaq down almost 2 percent. Both companies beat earnings forecasts when they reported results late Monday, but each delivered news that investors didn’t like. Apple Inc. didn’t sell as many iPads as analysts had hoped and a measure of profitability was lower than expected. IBM Corp.’s outsourcing business didn’t do as well analysts predicted. Shares of Bank of America Corp. fell 1.8 percent after the company reported a loss because of a one-time charge tied to credit and debit card reform legislation passed this year. Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., which also reported results before the bell, earned $1.74 billion, or $2.98 a share, much higher than the $2.32 per share analysts predicted. Shares

Earnings have stolen the spotlight from broader economic reports this week as 113 of the 500 companies in the Standard and Poor’s 500 index report third-quarter results. rose $1.80, or 1.6 percent in early trading. Earnings have stolen the spotlight from broader economic reports this week as 113 of the 500 companies in the Standard and Poor’s 500 index report third-quarter results. Four of the 30 companies that make up the Dow announced earnings today. Also weighing on stock prices was an announcement that China raised a key interest rate to slow rising inflation. The market has reacted negatively throughout the year to any moves by China’s government that are perceived as an effort to slow down its economy.

You’re able to retain more information that way. Just that one powerful technique can truly change someone’s learning habits to increase their learning abilities for the rest of their lives.” During the classes, business and city leaders will be introduced to the students. The state’s first lady, Marsha Barbour, is scheduled to make an appearance at one of the classes. The pilot program is offered at a cost of $58.95 to the student. The City of Vicksburg in Monday’s board meeting agreed to pay $400 to the Vicksburg Convention Center, where classes are being held for the first four weeks. Classes will also be conducted at the Old Court House Museum and City Hall. About 15 local businesses have signed on as sponsors, and costs are offset by a $6,500 matching grant via Mississippi’s First Lady Marsha Barbour Scholarship for Protocol and Etiquette, said Marie Thompson, adviser for the Mayor’s Youth Council. So far, Thompson said the council has raised about $5

Monday’s vote was unanimous, though ideas ranged from going with the two offers, which were from $23,500 to $24,184, to donating the house to use as a firefighter training apparatus. The two-story, six-bedroom structure has housed several businesses through the years, the last being a plant nursery which closed in 2007. Using the idle “spec build-

ing” on the industrial park’s east side as a shell for a new Warren County Jail proved to be a hot potato for supervisors and commissioners Monday reacting to statements last week by District 1 Supervisor David McDonald in a civic club speech during which he said the 64,000 square-foot building might be the best place to build one. As supervisors concluded their Monday morning ses-

sion, District 3 Supervisor Charles Selmon took the chance to remind the room, as cable access television cameras rolled, that the full board hadn’t publicly discussed the option. The issue came up briefly as commissioners debated the plantation house. “The board didn’t discuss it, and that’s all that needs to be said about that,” Board President Richard George said.

McDonald said last week the spec building site and its surrounding property are ideal because its flatter terrain would be easy to develop. Consultants who studied the size and scope of a new jail said the site’s distance from the middle of Vicksburg, particularly the courthouse, is a liability. Moss has said the building, which was completed in 1995 without an interior floor

and would need additional access roads and a parking lot, serves as an inducement for industries. Ideal dimensions of a new jail dictate a 350-bed facility on a 20- to 50-acre site, with capacity expandable to 650 beds in the future, according to the study completed in April by Colorado-based Voorhis/Robertson Justice Services.

Two killed by gunfire at Tennessee post office HENNING, Tenn. — Investigators searched today for the men who gunned down two workers at a rural post office that doubles as a community center in this town so small that residents cannot get their mail delivered at home. The shooting happened Monday morning at the onestory brick post office in Henning, about 45 miles northeast of Memphis. No arrests had been made and authorities hadn’t determined a motive. Killed were Judy Spray, 58, a rural carrier associate, and Paula Robinson, 33, a retail clerk. Spray and Robinson were the only ones in the post office during the shooting, said Yulanda Burns, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. Keith Morris, assistant inspector in charge of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service in Memphis, said officials have several possible motives.

FDA: Iowa firm’s eggs OK to sell after recall WASHINGTON — One of two Iowa farms that recalled millions of eggs this summer will start shipping its products to stores again, but the second farm could be shut down if it doesn’t clean up, the Food and Drug Administration said Monday. In an Oct. 15 letter to Hillandale Farms the FDA said the company has adequately cleaned up its facilities after it was linked to 1,600 salmonella illnesses earlier this year. The FDA said an additional inspection of Hillandale this month showed no evidence of salmonella in the laying houses that are open for business. Four other houses at the farms are undergoing further testing before they can be reopened, the FDA said. The company has also committed to do more frequent testing for salmonella. A spokeswoman for Hillandale, Julie DeYoung, said the company began shipping eggs Monday.

The FDA letter to Wright County Egg’s owner, Austin “Jack” DeCoster, urged him to take “prompt and aggressive actions” to eliminate salmonella from his farms. The FDA said it will reinspect the farm and could seize products or shut down the company if corrective action hasn’t been taken.

Police: 70-year-old killed for comics MEDINA, N.Y. — A 70-year-old New York man was beaten as thieves broke into his home to steal his valuable comic book collection and later died of a heart attack, authorities said. Medina Police Chief Jose Avila said today that Homer Marciniak did not suffer life-threatening injuries in the beating but had a heart attack later that day. He died soon after. Seventeen-year-old Juan Javier and 41-year-old Rico Vendetti, both of Rochester, have been charged with burglary in the July 5 theft at the home of Marciniak. They are not charged with beating Marciniak. Police

said more charges are pending. Vendetti is free on $100,000 bail. Javier was arraigned Monday and is jailed on $100,000 bail.

105 tons of marijuana seized at Mexico border TIJUANA, Mexico — Mexican security forces seized at least 105 tons of U.S.-bound marijuana in the border city of Tijuana Monday, by far the biggest pot bust in the country in recent years. Soldiers and police grabbed the drugs in pre-dawn raids in three neighborhoods after police arrested 11 people following a shootout, army Gen. Alfonso Duarte Mujica said

at a news conference. The marijuana was found wrapped in 10,000 packages, which were displayed to journalists by soldiers in masks. Duarte said the drug had an estimated street value in Mexico of 4.2 billion pesos, about $340 million. Duarte said authorities were still counting and weighing the packages and the amount could increase. He said the drugs — wrapped in different colors and labeled with apparently coded phrases and pictures that included Homer Simpson — would be incinerated immediately after the weighing and counting is completed.

SIDELINES NFL considering suspensions for hits NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL is getting serious about suspending players for illegal hits. It may begin as soon as this weekend. Aiming for the head or leading with the helmet to deliver a blow already costs players money in fines. In an effort to help prevent serious injuries, NFL executive vice president of football operations Ray Anderson told The Associated Press on Monday that instituting suspensions for such hits could come immediately, with Commissioner Roger Goodell’s approval. On Sunday, five players were knocked out of games by hard hits. Anderson said the league would contact the players union about any changes in disciplining such hits, but he didn’t expect any opposition. “Obviously suspensions would be a much bigger deal than fining guys,” said Colts center Jeff Saturday, the team’s player representative. “But if guys are headhunting out there to knock a guy out of the game, that’s the only way to take care of it.”

La. Pick 3: 7-4-4 La. Pick 4: 0-8-7-3 Weekly results: B2

St. Aloysius’ playoff hopes took a hit with last Friday’s 13-8 loss to Region 4-1A leader Cathedral, but it wasn’t the only result that hurt the Flashes. Sebastopol upset Dexter 18-16 and Mount Olive upended Bogue Chitto 14-0 to tighten up the top half of the eight-team region and also make St. Al’s push for a playoff bid much tougher. Cathedral’s win over the Flashes, coupled with Bogue Chitto’s loss, gave the Green Wave sole possession of first place at 4-0. Bogue Chitto and Mount Olive are now tied for second at 3-1, but the Pirates have the tiebreaker because of last week’s win. Dexter is alone in fourth at 3-2, followed by Sebastopol at 2-2. St. Al is alone in sixth at 1-3. Because the Flashes have already lost to Dexter and Bogue Chitto, they’ll have to win out to claim one of the four playoff spots. That’s a tough chore with a road game this week at Mount Olive and another at Sebastopol in the regular-season

prep football finale on Nov. 5. Flashes coach B.J. Smithhart, however, remains optimistic about his team’s chances. He felt the Flashes played one of their best games of the season against Cathedral. “We will line up and play with anybody,” Smithhart said. “I think we’ll be all right. Our guys gave it all they had.” St. Al’s defense was strong again, allowing Cathedral to score on just two long pass plays of 93 and 79 yards. Cathedral quarterback Caleb Upton had only three other completions in 13 total attempts. The two TDs to Carl Hammitte accounted for 172 of Upton’s 214 passing yards. But what stuck out to Cathedral coach Ron Rushing was the Green Wave’s inability to establish a running game against the Flashes. Cathedral managed only 72 yards on the ground, while St. Al gained 233. Rushing credited St. Al senior tackle Matt Wooten with lead-

He (Wooten) dominated us up front.” Smithhart saw the same thing. “Wooten wouldn’t let them get out,” Smithhart said of his senior tackle. Statistically, at least, the

Flashes were good. Quarterback Ford Biedenharn shredded the Green Wave defense on zone reads for a game-best 118 yards rushing. Carlton Campbell added 91 yards and Mac Jones had 27 and a touchdown. Biedenharn and freshman backup QB Carlisle Koestler combined to complete 6 of 11 passes for another 38 yards.

Local teams open practice with high hopes By Jeff Byrd jbyrd@vicksburgpost.com Basketball practice for high school teams opened in gyms across Warren County on Monday. Optimism runs high at Vicksburg High, where the boys’ team could start the season ranked in the state’s top five and a veteran Missy Gators squad could get some notice. VHS boys coach Dellie C. Robinson has 18 players on his senior-laden roster, with three more on the way once football season wraps up in a few weeks. “We’ve got eight seniors and I like our team. I’m glad to see practice start. We’re going to put in a lot of our offense this week and then work on fundamentals,” Robinson said. One Gator in particular was happy to get going. Sporting a new beard, senior Mychal Ammons is looking forward to the upcoming season. “I’m trying to mix it up. It’s a little bit Kobe (Bryant) and a little D-Wade (Dwayne Wade),” Ammons said of his facial motif. Vicksburg has some highprofile games in November, including a Nov. 9 match up with Wingfield in Jackson, a team that was ranked No. 1 for most of last season before it was upset in the Class 6A South State tournament. Provine comes to town on Nov. 18. There will not, however, be a Vicksburg-Warren Tournament to start the season. The annual event traditionally tipped off the season with a half-dozen teams playing over several days at Vicksburg and Warren Central. “Teams did not want to come here three days in a row,” Warren Central boys coach Jesse Johnson said. “It was better for us to play them home and away.” Vicksburg girls coach Barbara Hartzog also was pleased to get going. The Missy Gators — as well as VHS’ boys’ team — will play in the Forest Hill Jamboree on Oct. 30 and open the regular season on Nov. 6 against Yazoo City, at the Yazoo County tournament. Like Robinson, Hartzog is hoping for big things from a

prep basketball veteran squad. “We have a big sophomore class, but we also have a group of seniors who have been with me for three years. We’re ready to get going,” Hartzog said. At Warren Central, Lady Vikes coach Jackie Martin-Glass is changing some things up. With a speedy team, she’ll try a more uptempo offense that takes advantage of their talent. “Because we have a small team with a lot of track runners on it, we’re going to more of a running type of offense,” Martin-Glass said. “We’re going to use a lot of motion and try to move the ball. We feel like we have more versatile personnel.” The Lady Vikes and Vikings will open the season on Nov. 6 at Florence. They’ll also travel to Natchez and Port

Season openers Vicksburg boys: Nov. 6 vs. Velma Jackson, at Yazoo County Vicksburg girls: Nov. 6 vs. Yazoo City, at Yazoo County Warren Central: Nov. 6 at Florence Porters Chapel: Nov. 9 vs. Tri-County St. Aloysius: Nov. 11 vs. Hillcrest Gibson, two teams that have normally played in the season-opening Vicksburg-Warren Tournament. Johnson said his 20-player boys’ team focused on conditioning during Monday’s first practice. “We moved along pretty good for a first day,” Johnson said. At St. Aloysius, secondyear coach Richard Hodges is combining work between the varsity and middle school programs as they prepare for the Nov. 11 opener at home against MAIS foe Hillcrest. “We’ll have 21 boys in the high school and junior var-

sity and another 30 in the middle school,” Hodges said. “For the girls, we have seven we know that can play varsity and we hope to add three more to get to 10. We’ll have 10 on the JV and another 12 with the middle school.” Hodges is being assisted this season by former Alcorn State player Delvin Thompson, who will handle the middle school teams. Until then, work will consist of basketball basics. “From 2 to 4, these kids are in basketball school. This (the gym) is their classroom,” Hodges said.

NEW YORK — Pitching in the postseason is supposed to be stressful. Cliff Lee is making this all look so easy. The ace of October overpowered the New York Yankees again, striking out 13 and sending the Texas Rangers to an 8-0 victory Monday night for a 2-1 lead in the best-ofseven AL championship series. Josh Hamilton hit an early two-run homer off Andy Pettitte and started a Cliff six-run outLee burst in the ninth with a leadoff double. Lee allowed only two singles in eight innings and became the first pitcher to reach double digits in strikeouts three times in one postseason. “It’s tough to be better than that,” Yankees slugger Mark Teixeira said. Mr. Automatic improved to 7-0 with a 1.26 ERA in eight postseason starts. Three of those wins have come against the powerpacked Yankees, including two in last year’s World Series for Philadelphia. New York won the other four games against the Phillies to take home its 27th championship, but now faces a tall task to repeat. The Yankees must win three straight against the resilient Rangers to advance without facing Lee in a decisive Game 7 at Texas. “I’m not satisfied,” Lee said. “We still have some work to do here. A lot of fun to come into New York and get this first one. Hopefully we can come out here tomorrow and pick up where we left off.” It’ll be a tough act to follow after Lee and the Rangers handed the Yankees the most lopsided shutout loss in their storied postseason history. The left-hander also joined Orlando Hernandez (8-0) and Orel Hershiser (7-0) as the only pitchers to win their first seven postseason decisions. Lee matched a career high for strikeouts and Texas broke it open in the ninth. Game 4 is tonight. In the previous best-ofseven league championship series that were tied 1-all, the Game 3 winner advanced to the World Series 19 of 27 times. The Yankees will need to turn around a series they’ve been dominated in so far. Their 6-5 victory in Game 1 came after scoring five runs in the eighth inning. “I don’t think we’re in trouble,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. “We’re down 2-1, we’re not down 3-0. It’s frustrating we’ve lost two games in a row, but we’ve lost two games in a row a lot of times before and come back.”

NFL Ex-LSU star Highsmith arrested on drug charge BATON ROUGE, La. — Former NFL linebacker Arlington “Ali” Highsmith is facing a drug charge after Baton Rouge police said they found two pounds of marijuana in his refrigerator. Baton Rouge Police Sgt. Don Kelly said Highsmith was booked into jail on one count of possession with intent to distribute marijuana following his arrest Friday. The jail said Highsmith had been released but didn’t have any information on whether he had an attorney. Highsmith played for LSU before the Arizona Cardinals signed him as a rookie free agent in 2008. He played in 20 games over two seasons for the Cardinals.

Seau drives off cliff, suffers minor injuries CARLSBAD, Calif. — Former NFL star linebacker Junior Seau drove off a seaside cliff and was hospitalized with minor injuries Monday, less than nine hours after he was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. The 12-time Pro Bowler’s white Cadillac SUV was found on the beach about 100 feet below the roadside, said Carlsbad police Lt. Kelly Cain. Cain said it wasn’t a sheer cliff but was a significant, rough slope. Seau was taken to a hospital in San Diego. Seau told investigators he drove off the cliff because he fell asleep. Cain said the lack of skid marks leading up to where the vehicle plunged off the cliff supported Seau’s statement. Seau’s live-in girlfriend told authorities that Seau assaulted her during an argument Sunday at his home, according to police. Seau, 41, was arrested outside his home about two hours after police arrived. Seau posted bail and was released from the San Diego County jail in Vista.

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Oct. 19 1940 — Alabama snaps Tennessee’s defensive scoreless streak of 71 quarters, but still loses 27-12. Tennessee hadn’t allowed a point since Oct. 29, 1938, when it beat LSU 14-6. 1980 — Dan Fouts of San Diego passes for 444 yards and four touchdowns as the Chargers beat the New York Giants 44-7. 1994 — Duke beats North Carolina 3-2 in women’s soccer to end the Tar Heels’ unbeaten streak at 101 games. 2003 — Isaac Bruce becomes the 18th player in NFL history to top 10,000 yards receiving, catching nine passes for 129 yards as St. Louis beat Green Bay 34-24.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Kerry Collins has been a starter and a backup, on the field and on the sideline, in the huddle and on the headset. At 37 years old, he knows his role these days. “I’m a short-term fill-in,” Collins said. A good one, nonetheless. Collins replaced injured starter Vince Young, completed 11 of 16 passes for 110 yards and a touchdown and put the Tennessee Titans atop the AFC South with a 30-3 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in a battle of backups Monday night. Tennessee, which also got 111 yards rushing and a late score from Chris Johnson, moved into a three-way tie with Indianapolis and Houston in the division. The Jaguars (3-3), who finished last in the division the past two years, are in chase mode again following another lopsided loss. And they might be without quarterback David Garrard, who left the game with a

NFL

concussion. Knocked down several times early, Garrard completed 7 of 12 passes for 49 yards. He also threw an interception. He was knocked out of the game in the second quarter after getting rocked by Will Witherspoon. Trent Edwards, the former Buffalo starter who was claimed off waivers three weeks ago, stepped in for his first action with the Jaguars. He was 11-of-20 for 115 yards, with two interceptions. Jacksonville was plagued by turnovers for the second straight week. The Jaguars were able to overcome three mistakes against winless Buffalo. No such luck against Tennessee, which has won six of the last eight in the series. The Titans turned three short fields into 13 points, taking advantage of two interceptions and a short punt. Making matters worse for Jacksonville, tight end Marcedes Lewis fumbled at the Tennessee 10-yard line in the second quarter and

receiver Tiquan Underwood let Vincent Fuller rip a pass out of his hands in the end zone in the fourth. The Jaguars finished with four turnovers. “Not the night we were looking for,” Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said. “We turned it over four times, lost our quarterback. ... Not the kind of night we wanted to have.” Young threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Britt on the opening drive, then sprained his left knee and tweaked his left ankle on the next series. Coach Jeff Fisher said Young was sore, but could have returned and finished the game in the shotgun formation. No need, not with Collins waiting in the wings. Collins came off the bench, threw a short TD to Bo Scaife and then led the Titans on time-consuming drives to keep control. “Kerry did a nice job and that’s why Kerry’s here,” Fisher said. “We’re very, very fortunate that we have two very good quarterbacks.”

ABC plans movie about Miss. lesbian A spokeswoman for ABC Family said the network has plans to develop a movie about Constance McMillen, the Mississippi teenager whose school prom was canceled after she asked to bring a same-sex date and wear a tuxedo. Diane Morgan, the network’s vice president of media relations, said the project is in the early stages of development. Constance McMillen Morgan said McMillen’s story has been optioned by producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron and Sony Pictures TV. Morgan said John Gray will write the script and is expected to direct. The American Civil Liberties Union filed suit on McMillen’s behalf against the Itawamba County School District earlier this year over the canceled prom. McMillen received $35,000 as part of a settlement.

Asner returning with sitcom on CMT Television veteran Ed Asner is coming back to series TV with the first scripted sitcom for CMT. On the new show, “Working Class,” Asner will co-star as the crusty but lovable neighbor to the blue-collar single mom played by series star Melissa Peterman. The network announced Monday that the 12-episode multi-camera comedy will premiere Ed in January on CMT. Asner Asner, who turns 81 next month, is beloved for his signature role as cranky journalist Lou Grant. His return to TV follows recent successes for two fellow cast-mates from the legendary “Mary Tyler Moore Show”: Betty White on TV Land’s “Hot in Cleveland” and Cloris Leachman on Fox’s “Raising Hope.”

Quaid, wife no-shows for vandalism case A judge issued arrest warrants Monday for Randy Quaid and his wife after they failed to show up at a court hearing stemming from their arrests last month on suspicion of illegally squatting at a home, a prosecutor said. Randy Evi Santa Barbara Senior Deputy Quaid Quaid District Attorney Lee Carter said the $50,000 warrants were issued after the couple failed to appear for an arraignment Monday on a felony vandalism charge. Carter said the couple may turn themselves in sooner, but their case will be called again on Oct. 26. Randy and Evi Quaid each face a felony vandalism charge. Deputies arrested the couple last month on suspicion that they were living in the guest house of a Montecito home they previously owned. Authorities said at the time the Quaids were suspected of causing more than $5,000 in damage. The Quaids frequently missed court appearances in an earlier case involving charges they defrauded an innkeeper. That case was resolved in April with Evi Quaid pleading no contest to a misdemeanor count. The charges against her husband were dropped.

Group seeks homes for lovable lizards Finding loving homes for cuddly puppies and cute kittens is hard enough. The director of the Rhode Island Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals isn’t quite sure how he’s going to find proper homes for 10 cold-blooded lizards. E.J. Finocchio said the lizards’ owner turned them in to the organization’s headquarters because he had lost his job and his house and could not care for them. Finocchio said that he won’t even call the animals “pets.” He said they don’t show any affection and don’t belong in homes. He said at least one of the lizards could grow to seven-feet in length, and three require special permits to own. He said he’ll ask area zoos and animal sanctuaries to take the creatures.

Bassett, other storytellers push tolerance NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Angela Bassett says one thing is paramount when she tackles a new project: the story. Bassett was in New Orleans Monday to join five men and women who shared stories of survival and triumph as part of USA Network’s “Characters Unite” public service campaign. The campaign kicked off what is planned as a five-city tour in New Orleans during a meeting of the Cable and Telecommunications Association for Marketing. The tour’s next stop is New York in December and plans are in the works to bring “A More Perfect Union: Stories of Prejudice and Power” to Chicago, Denver and Seattle next year. “By nature and by profession, I’m a storyteller,” Bassett said, when asked why she got involved with the project. “I illuminate the human experience on film. But most successful films start with the story. So I just have a natural affinity for something like this. ... Not everyone can act, but everyone has a story, has experiences and relationships. This type of sharing shows how we’re more alike than not.” Ward “Mack” McLendon, a former telephone technician, told the more than 200 in attendance of how he transformed a warehouse for his old cars into the Lower 9th Ward Village, a neighborhood center to help bring his community back together after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. “I’m no movie star,” McLendon said. “I’m just your everyday person and getting the opportunity to do this on this level is huge. To tell this story about my community and what it’s going through will hopefully help someone else. It’s about how we embrace disaster and change and what we do after.” On stage, McLendon recalled how Katrina stole everything from him. “What happens when you lose everything overnight?” he asked. “I became numb. For five months, every day I woke up, I hoped it was all just a bad dream.” But finally, he said, he came out of his comatose state and the idea of the community center was born. “For some reason, I couldn’t shake it. I went to a town hall

I kept hoping they’d say ‘No,”’ he said, drawing laughter from the audience. Bassett later announced that the event’s proceeds would go to McLendon’s rebuilding efforts. A stunned McLendon hugged several audience members, whose appreciative applause echoed throughout the hall. “This story is what’s indicative of New Orleans, the resiliency of spirit and community,” Bassett said. The event also gave the New Orleans audience a peek into the life of a woman who grew up in the foster care system and is now the mother of three children whom she first fostered. Jacqui Vines, senior vice president and general manager of Cox Louisiana, said before the show that she looked forward to her stage debut. Vines shared her journey of being in and going through the foster care system both as a client and a provider. She fostered three young girls — biological sisters — and has since adopted them. Bassett said these kind of shared experiences “gives a voice to people of all walks of life and give us a chance to walk in someone else’s shoes

or moccasins.” Stephanie Summerville described what happened when as a college student, she found herself tending to a dying member of the Ku Klux Klan back in her hometown of Evansville, Ind. Summerville said while in the man’s bedroom, she found a confederate flag behind the bed and a white robe and matching hood with eye holes stitched in the corner. “I sit down and see what I thought was a Bible, so I opened it up and inside is a

manifesto about the supremacy of the white race. And that’s when it hits me, ‘Oh (expletive)! I’m in the house of an honest to goodness Klansman!”’ On Day 5, the patient died. His wife tells her employer that her husband had received the best care he’d ever got since coming home from the hospital. “That’s when I realized we were two incredibly different people who had come together and changed each other’s lives,” Summerville said. “And that’s what I had went down to Atlanta for in the first place. So I did what I set out to do after all,” she said in closing as a roar of applause rippled through the audience

New mother’s best friend is invading her territory Dear Abby: I recently gave birth to a beautiful, perfect baby girl, “Cassie.” I also just returned to work. I would love to stay home, but I cannot afford to financially. I am lucky that my best friend, “Mary Ellen,” doesn’t have to work and has offered to care for my little 8-week-old bundle of joy. My problem is, every day when I go to pick up Cassie, I must wait for Mary Ellen to say goodbye to her. She has started instructing me about how Cassie likes to sleep, be burped and held. While I appreciate her watching and caring for my little one, I am Cassie’s mom and I know what she likes. The time I have with my daughter is precious. I just want to pick her up and go home. How do I tell my friend it upsets me that she feels she

should tell me about how to care for my own baby? I feel guilty and sad that I must work, and her comments make it worse. I know she’s only trying to help. I don’t want to hurt her feelings, but what can I do? — Working Mommy in Baltimore Dear Working Mommy: Before your resentment grows any further, set Mary Ellen straight.

TOMORROW’S HOROSCOPE

BY BERNICE BEDE OSOL • NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Conditions look extremely favorable concerning your worldly desires and material wants. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — There are strong indications that you could end up the victor in two competitive involvements related either to business or sports. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Because opportunities might not occur right off the bat, try to remain patient. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Put your lesser objectives on the back burner, because you are far better equipped to handle major assignments than you are small, insignificant ones. Use this day wisely. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Make any promising developments you have going for you career-wise your top priorities. There are excellent indications that you will be quite fortunate in many venues. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — Don’t throw your authority away, because most situations will work out far better under your direction. Things will turn out okay under a surrogate, but not as great as when you’re in charge. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Your financial affairs will begin taking a new positive trend. Seize advantage of what occurs in order to get money matters more in line with what you can handle. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — A good financial transaction you make will have an excellent chance of becoming even more bountiful. A well-respected friend or associate is apt to be responsible for this. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — When meeting anyone who performs a similar job as you, you should be as pleasant and friendly as you can. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Whatever happens to you, both positive and negative, will turn out to be advantageous for you in the long run, so don’t take yourself or events too seriously. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — The full force of what you have going for you might not come into play until you really need it. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — There are strong indications that you will derive a number of personal benefits through two very different points of power. What they share in common is having favorable allies.

TWEEN 12 & 20

BY DR. ROBERT WALLACE • NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION Dr. Wallace: When I was playing with our dog, he accidentally bit my finger when trying to get a ball that I was throwing. My mom washed my finger with soap and water and put some hydrogen peroxide on the bite wound, and it healed in about two weeks. A month later, my 3-year-old brother bit me on the arm because I wouldn’t give him a piece of my candy bar. He was disciplined, but I’m the one who suffered. Again, my mom washed the wound with soap and peroxide, but 10 days later I went to a doctor because the bite wound became infected. The doctor told my mom and me that a human bite was more serious because of the possibility of infection. Why would a human bite be worse than a dog bite? I hope you can answer my question because our whole family is depending on you. — Stacey, Moncton, New Brunswick Stacey: Dr. Elliot Goldstein, a bite specialist in California, can explain the difference between a human bite and a dog bite. When asked, he said that he would rather be bitten by a dog than by a human because human bites transmit more bacteria and are more likely to become infected. That doesn’t even take into consideration the bite from the infamous Count Dracula! Dr. Wallace: My parents recently divorced, and I am now living in another state with my grandparents, who are very nice but stuffy. When I moved in, the first thing they told me was that they loved me very much — that’s good! Then they told me they didn’t like my choice of clothes (sweatshirts and baggy jeans) and were going to dress me like a young lady. I don’t think this is fair! If my parents were still living together, I wouldn’t have to change my clothing styles. My grandparents want me to wear sweaters, loose-fitting slacks and “normal” shoes instead of combat boots. There is a possibility that my mom might get married in four or five months. If that happens, I’ll live with her and her new husband. That would mean I could go back to my sweatshirts and baggy jeans. And it would also mean the new wardrobe my grandparents plan to buy for me would be given to the Salvation Army. What can I do to get them to understand all this? — Serena, Atlanta. Serena: Since you are living with your grandparents, you’re going to have to relent. I suggest you give their clothing style a chance. Who knows, you just might like the new look. If you do move back with your mother and decide to return to sweatshirts, baggy jeans and combat boots, so be it. The Salvation Army is a wonderful charitable group and will be happy to benefit from your almost-new clothes. Someone will be happy to acquire them at bargain prices! I sure hope it will be a teen. • Dr. Robert Wallace writes for Copley News Service. E-mail him at rwallace@Copley News Service.

daughter is painful and when she “suggests” how to hold or burp the baby, it makes you feel it’s a reflection on your maternal ability. If Mary Ellen gets it, things will improve. If she doesn’t, make other arrangements for your child. Your friend may be becoming too attached to your baby and confused about her role. Dear Abby: I run a successful restaurant business. One of my key employees, “Zayne,” has Tourette’s syndrome. He has been a loyal and valuable waiter for many years. When customers ask what is wrong with him because he makes noises or hits himself, how should I respond? Most of our regular customers understand his condition and ignore it. However, we do get the occasional socially inept customer who gawks or asks

rude questions. I would defend and protect Zayne. He knows people ask about him, and if they question him, he tells them about his condition. What’s the best way to respond politely to people who don’t have a clue? — Zayne’s Boss in the Pacific Northwest Dear Boss: If you are asked about Zayne, tell the questioner, “That’s Zayne. He has been a valued employee here for many years. If you want an answer to your question, ask HIM.” Dear Abby: Every time my son and his wife get into a big argument, she kicks him out of the bedroom and has their 8-year-old daughter sleep with her. This has happened many times in my granddaughter’s life. Should I be concerned for my granddaughter, or mind my

Osteoarthritis not linked to manufacturing job Dear Dr. Gott: I have osteoarthritis in my neck and spine. Could you tell me how a 54-year-old lady like me got such a thing? My job is repetitive work in manufacturing, but my employer says it’s not from the work. I feel it is, but I don’t feel that 54 is old. Dear Reader: Osteoarthritis is a chronic condition that results from a breakdown of joint cartilage. Healthy cartilage allows our joints to move easily and without pain. When osteoarthritis is present, a degeneration of the cartilage that cushions bone ends occurs. Over time, some areas of cartilage may wear away completely, resulting in damage to the bone and extreme pain on movement. The ends of the bone may form spurs, and the ligaments may thicken. This common disorder affects about one in three people and, while most common in older adults, it can affect people of any age. All of our joints are susceptible to osteoarthritis, but those most commonly affected are ones that bear weight — knees, hips, spine, feet, neck, lower back and hands. When the knees or hips are involved, pain may be experienced with motion but may disappear when at rest. When the spine is involved, stiffness and discomfort can be felt and can generate to the lower back. There may be pain generating to the head or down the arms. I cannot determine from your brief note why you have the condition. It may be related to a sports injury when you were younger, or you may have a family history of OA. There is also a consideration of a chemical change that has occurred in your cartilage, causing it to break down faster than it can be produced. You also may be carrying more weight than is healthy for your frame, or you may be relatively inactive. As you can see, there are a number of causes for a woman at the early age of 54 to develop this condition. You might be helped by over-the-counter or prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication. There are also glucosamine/chondroitin combinations available at your local pharmacy that may help to build cartilage and improve your joint mobility. If appropriate, consider weight reduction. Above all, stay as active as possible. Keeping your joints as mobile and flexible as possible can help reduce your pain and stiffness. Consider yoga, tai chi or water aerobics. On the home front, consider rubbing castor oil on your painful joints. Some of my readers have found success by using purple grape juice and liquid pectin commonly used to make jam.

The

ABCs

of writing a classified ad

A void Abbreviations A few accepted and recognizable abbreviations are ok, but an ad full of them just confuses the reader A good rule of thumb is “Spell it out or leave it out”.

Be Available

List your telephone number so that the potential buyer will know how to contact you. State the best hours to call so they’ll know when they can reach you.

C onsider Your Readers Put yourself in the reader’s place. If you were considering buying this item, what would you want to know about it? Give the item’s age, condition, size, color, brand name and any other important information needed to describe it completely & accurately.

D on’t Exaggerate Misleading information may bring potential buyers to your home but it will not help you make the sale. You’ll lose the prospect’s trust and faith as well at the sale.

E nter the Price Price is one of the biggest concerns of classified shoppers. Ads that list prices will get their attention first. Including price also helps you avoid inquiries from callers not in our price range. Place Your Classified Ad Today!
