Wreck victims in critical condition

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The condition of one person involved in Tuesday’s fatal crash on Highway 45 has been downgraded to critical.

Angela Duderstadt, 46, of Baldwyn, was in critical condition at 4 p.m.

Wednesday, according to a Regional Medical Center spokeswoman. The hospital had reported her

condition as serious Tuesday afternoon.

Angela Pounds, 18, of Booneville, remained in critical condition, while Jimmy Duderstadt, 47, of Baldwyn, has been re-

leased from the MED. The three were traveling in a 1993 Mercury Cougar along with Annie Dugard, 76, who died at the scene.

The car was slowing

down and about to cross the highway median at a gravel turnaround when it was struck from behind by a northbound Peterbilt log truck driven by Rodney Brassfield, 30, of

Bruce, at about 9 a.m.

Northbound traffic was stopped for an hour.

The Corinth Police Department continued its investigation of the crash on Wednesday.

Head-on crash on Shiloh Road leaves one hurt

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston @dailycorinthian.com

A Michie woman was injured in a head-on collision on Shiloh Road Tuesday evening.

The crash happened in the curve of the road near Shiloh Ridge golf course about 6:39 p.m.

Flora Strickland, 59, of Michie, Tenn., was driving a 1997 Buick LeSabre when her vehicle crossed into oncoming traffic, said Deputy Police Chief Scotty Harville. She was

taken to Magnolia Regional Health Center with injuries categorized as moderate.

The Buick collided with a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Patrick Coln, 27, of Corinth.

He was uninjured. A passenger in the Chevrolet, Barbara Coln, 49, had injuries listed as “complaint of pain” but was not transported by EMS. The truck remained in its lane while the car came to rest partly in the shoulder of the road.

Volunteers being sought for Grand Illumination

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@ dailycorinthian.com

Behind each Grand Illumination is an army of volunteers who make it happen.

With the event coming up on Nov. 12, organizers are calling for members of the community to get involved and help make it happen by preparing, placing and lighting luminaries.

“If we didn’t have the volunteers, there wouldn’t be a Grand Illumination,” said Tourism Director Kristy White.

It has become a popular event with civic and other

groups who adopt a street.

“Probably 70 to 80 percent of the volunteers return every year,” said White. “It’s really fun for them. For instance, the Corinth Kiwanis take Fillmore Street, and there’s always people laughing and smiling and having a good time.”

Other groups such as Civitans, Crossroads Poetry Project and Corinth Theatre-Arts are participating, and families also get involved.

State eyes $50M for preschools Texas Cowgirls

BY MARQUITA BROWN Associated Press

JACKSON — Parents would receive matching funds to send their children to better preschools.

Preschool teachers would receive financial incentives to enhance their education.

Those are just two elements of a proposal to improve early child education in the state if Mississippi is awarded up to $50 million in the federal Race to the Top early learning challenge.

“One of the things about this is trying to change our state’s attitude toward education, period,” Cathy Grace chairwoman of the State Early Childhood Advisory Council.

The money, which would be awarded over four years, would be used to build a unified, statewide early education program that could be sustained once the challenge funds run out.

Mississippi has until

Oct. 19 to submit its application. The U.S. Department of Education should announce the winners by the end of the year.

The grant could make a big difference in Mississippi, where about 33 percent of children live in poverty, Grace said.

That’s a higher percentage than any other state.

“This is about children, and that’s very clear in this proposal,” said Grace, director of early childhood development for Children’s Defense Fund.

The grant’s main goal is to help states get more children who are at risk because of low income or special needs into high quality child care.

Some child care providers around the state say they have not had significant input in the development of the proposal even though they will be among the most affected if the plan is enacted.

Cassandra Welchlin, project coordinator of the

Child Care Matters Campaign for the Mississippi Low Income Child Care Initiative, said a concern is that the proposal includes allocating some of the grant funds for a restructuring of the state Department of Human Services.

“That seems really unnecessary because that money could go into other things such as providing more money for centers to meet the quality ratings,” she said.

A general argument is the greatest possible percentage of the funds would need to go to the child care centers.

Carol Burnett, executive director of the Mississippi Low Income Child Care Initiative, said many child care centers serve parents who can’t afford to pay very much. She described a system where the business owners struggle to keep their heads above water. It’s difficult for them to be able to afford teachers who have at-

tained more education or to pay for training.

The adults providing the child care need “to understand early childhood development,” Burnett said.

“They need to know why this particular puzzle or this particular set of blocks is going to teach concepts to a child.”

Adults also need to be able to foster an environment where a child feels safe to learn and explore.

They need to understand what behavior is reasonable for children of different ages, she said.

Those things happen before a child starts to speak, Burnett said.

Those in the field of early education generally agree on the importance of the quality of adults working with children.

The reality is those working in child care are paid minimum wage and receive no benefits, she said.

sales of the year, according to Hastings.

Booneville’s Alma Jones was the first in line at 8:20 a.m.

“The new store is wonderful,” said Jones. “It’s laid out well with a good variety and the people are real friendly.”

Jones was one of 200 customers to receive gift cards.

The first 200 customers were presented cards ranging in value of $5 to $500 along with a Belkie Bear.

Walnut’s Elaine Fiveash and her sister Glenda Parker got up early to be among the first to enter the store.

“I had my husband

wake me up at 6 a.m.,” said Fiveash.

Fiveash was one of five customers who received a $500 gift card.

“I couldn’t believe it,” said the customer. “I’m usually the one who gets the $5 card.

The Walnut shopper was also impressed with the store’s new look.

“I love it,” she said. “There is so much more space.”

As part of the grand reopening, Belk also made a $5,000 donation to the AMEN Food Pantry.

“Our favorite phrase to hear is that I can’t believe I’m in Corinth,” said Hastings. “That’s exactly the response we were looking for.”

goat tying and other fun events for all ages.

Almost all classes include “junior” and “senior” categories for different age groups.

Registration begins at 6 p.m. and the show starts one hour later. Ribbons will be awarded for the first through fifth places in every class.

Not just for 4-H members, the horse show is open to all youths who were 18 and under as of the first of the year as well as members of 4-H Clubs from other counties.

Only Alcorn County 4-H members will receive points for the year-end banquet.

The 4-H parents will provide food and concessions. Chili, soups and

homemade desserts will be available. All proceeds will go toward the Alcorn 4-H Club’s year-end banquet.

Admission is free.

There will be a $3 charge per-class for participants.

The Showdeo 4-H Horse Club hosts six horse shows each year.

The show’s setting, Little Creek Ranch, is located on 900 acres of rolling

hills in the eastern part of Alcorn County.

To find the ranch, travel five miles west of Corinth on U.S. Highway 72, turn onto County Road 300 and follow the signs for three miles to the ranch entrance.

rarely lost games

BY BILLY WATKINS Associated Press

PEARL — Picture this: A double-deck bus barnstorming the northern United States and Canada with the Harlem Globetrotters filling the upstairs and the Texas Cowgirls, a women’s basketball team, riding below.

The Globetrotters, featuring Wilt Chamberlain and Meadowlark Lemon, were black. The Texas Cowgirls were white.

The years were 1957 and ’58.

“We got a lot of strange looks,” said Barbara Leggette, a Pearl resident who was 18 years old and a member of the Cowgirls at the time.

“But us and the Globetrotters got along great.

They looked after the girls in every big city we went to and made sure nobody bothered us.”

Those big cities included New York, San Francisco, Boston and Chicago. Small towns were on the schedule, too, “because we played every day and usually twice on Sunday,” she said.

It was, in some ways, a traveling circus. The Globetrotters were proving that comedy and basketball made good companions.

The Cowgirls — formed in 1949 and disbanded in 1977 — always opened the entertainment, taking on local men’s teams.

They came onto the court wearing western hats, vests and holsters filled with cap pistols. Whenever a player made a shot during warm-ups, she would take off something.

“We’d get all the way down to our uniform, and the crowd would start yelling ‘More!

More!’ but that’s as far as it went,” Leggette laughs.

“Lord help me if my daddy could’ve seen that.”

Rarely did the Cowgirls lose.

“For the most part, men resented us playing at all, so it would burn them up when we beat them,” said Leggette. “We were in Utah one night, and one of the players on the other team kept trying to get fresh with me every time I brought the ball down court. It really hacked me off. So I reared back and slapped the hell out of him. That guy didn’t know who he was messing with.”

Leggette, 72, the youngest of 12 children, grew up in Transylvania, La., a community 20 miles north of Tallulah.

She loved basketball, and spent most of her spare time shooting at a hoop nailed to a chicken house.

From fifth grade through 10th, she played at Transylvania Middle School. Then she led Lake Providence High School to the state championship finals as a junior and senior, winning one title and losing another by one point. Leggette earned All-State honors by averaging more than 40 points per game.

“I had a hook shot they couldn’t stop,” Leggette said.

This was no ordinary hook shot. Leggette usually launched it near the out of bounds line on the right side of the court, a good 22 feet from the basket. She learned it playing against her four brothers.

“I had never seen anybody else shoot a hook,” she said. “I was only 5-foot-6, so I had to figure out a way to get a shot off against the boys. I worked on it until I could pop that net.”

Two men from Wisconsin visited Lake Providence to work on a power plant. They took in a local high school game, and saw Leggette pour in nearly 50 points.

They told one of her sisters about the Cowgirls, based in Beloit, Wis., and owned by promoter Dempsey Hovland.

“My sister and my mother brought me to Jackson and put me on a train to Chicago, where I took another train to Beloit for a tryout,” she said. “I was a country girl who had never been anywhere.

“When I got there, there were about 40 girls, and they were only going to keep eight. We did some drills and scrimmaged. I felt like I was as good as any of them.”

She was the only Southerner to make the team and earned the starting point guard position.

Off they went, playing high school gymnasiums and some of the most famous arenas in the world — the old Madison Square Garden in New York and the Cow Palace in San Francisco.

The 1957 Green Bay Packers, with outstanding athletes such as Bart Starr and Paul Hornung, went 3-9 in football and 0-1 in basketball, losing to the Cowgirls.

Leggette earned $400 a month, a ton of money in those days. She sent most of it home to help the family.

“I enjoyed every minute of it,” she said of the 1957-58 season, which ran from October through May. As the team prepared for a European tour, Leggette received word that her mother had suffered a stroke and her father was battling cancer. She also learned that one of her nieces, a special needs child, wasn’t doing well.

Leggette returned to Transylvania. Within a 10-month span, her mother, father and niece died. She never returned to the Cowgirls.

“I helped raise my nieces and nephews, helped keep the farm going for a while,” she said. “It was the only decision I could’ve made. I couldn’t have lived with myself, otherwise.”

Leggette’s story, along with others who played with the Cowgirls, may have never been told without Jackie Butler, a 53-year-old student at North Texas State University who is working on her master’s in American history.

Butler was urged by a professor to take an inventory of a small historical museum in Winthrop, Ark., just to see what she might discover.

Butler found stories on World War II heroes and one about a bear killed.

“The usual small-town stuff,” she said. “But one day they gave me the key to the sports room.

I opened up a box, and there was a picture of the Texas Cowgirls. It just tugged at me. I immediately wondered, ‘Girls, where are you now?”’

“The better qual-

That would help parents decide what is quality and why they should choose better programs even if it costs more, she said.

versal pre-K — Hawaii, Wyoming and Idaho — also are competing for Race to the Top funds.

Another positive aspect of the proposal is extending the length of time before re-determining whether lowincome working parents can continue to receive vouchers to help with their child care expenses, Welchlin said.

Al Hamilton Alexander Scott Hamilton III was born in Warrenton, Va., on Feb. 25, 1931, the only child of Ellen Turner Hamilton and Alexander Scott Hamilton Jr. He was doted upon by his grandfather, Alexander Scott Hamilton Sr. The Hamilton men were known in the family as “Old Alec,” “Big Alec” and “Little Alec.” Old Alec entertained Little Alec by taking him to funerals and court trials. Since Big Alec raised race horses, Little Alec longed to be a jockey, but as he grew to be 6 feet tall, he couldn’t qualify.

After attending Warrenton High Hamilton School for many years, Alex graduated from Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Va. He received a bachelor of arts degree in business from the University of Virginia in 1952. He was a first lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps during the Korean conflict. He was married to Carolyn Ballard Hamilton for 40 years. They reared four children together. Carolyn preceded him in death in 1993. All the children survive along with their wives, Robert Orrin (AnnaMarie) of Chapel Hill, N.C., Richard Scott (Bridget) of Mt. Juliet, Tenn., and their daughters, Jennifer Belew (BJ) and their son Chase and daughter Halie Belew, Megan Henry (Steven), Ian Ruston (Lisa) of Seneca, S.C., and their son and daughter, Christian and Lindsey Hamilton, and Heather Leigh “Mouse” Hamilton of Marietta, Ga. Through the years, Alex was employed in Charlotte, N.C., New Orleans and McComb before arriving in Corinth in 1972 to work with what was then Southbridge Plastics. He has since managed finance companies and was district circulation manager for the Daily Corinthian in the 1980s. He will be remembered by many as the “pizza man” with the little red truck. He then worked more than 17 years at Express Shop #4. He retired at the age of 80 when lung cancer reared its ugly head.

Alex was a well-known character actor with Corinth Theatre-Arts for many years. He was Fagin in Oliver, Eliza Doolittle’s father in “My Fair Lady” and Marley’s Ghost in “A Christmas Carol,” and other roles too numerous to mention. His most recent roles were in “Sunshine Boys” and “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.”

In 1994, Alex married Donna Fowler Brumfield. She survives him along with

Technology incorporation will be new educational modus operandi When I began my college educational experience, the move toward advanced instructional technology was still in its birth stages. I remember walking to the library and physically checking out books at the University of Memphis. I remember having only dial-up access in the dorm room with which to complete assignments. The first time I learned to use online databases for research were during my graduate school days amidst the hills of the University of Tennessee. Those in charge of editing Modern Language Association (MLA) style struggled to keep abreast of new technological changes more than I did climbing up and down those hills going to my classes. Everything was new, and it evolved every single day, Stacy it seemed. New kinds of electronic sources constantly available, warranting a new Jones were way to cite them.

Much, however, has changed since then. I Southern Drawl couldn’t have imagined upon my entry into academe the sort of environment in which I would be teaching and learning now, a realm where students use laptops daily and the landscape is more often dominated by “cloud computing”: the ability to save and share documents between devices because the storage space for the information resides in that nebulous world of cyberspace. It is a era where I can stroll around the classroom with a tablet computer, known as an iPad (RIP, Steve Jobs, and many thanks), which is thinner than most books and allows me to interact with my students while they are blogging or posting responses to a given instructional prompt on a social learning site. Boy, these are days, and I’m elated to live in such an information-rich, connected era.

Why is it important to have technology in a classroom these days?

Well, first, as any good educator will tell you, the technology should never be the focal point. It is only a vehicle — albeit a rather powerful one when coupled with an educator who is either savvy in using it to deliver instruction or is very willing to learn. The importance can be stated in a few choice words: digital literacy, collaboration, creativity, problem-solving, and real-world applicability. These ideals cannot be attained in the same way with standard paper, pencil, and textbook as they can with the appropriate technological tools.

Ultimately, I have been privileged throughout my teaching career to have access to technology in the classroom. Initially, my move to teaching secondary education in a small rural district after having taught for several years in a large, anonymous university environment where technology was readily available was a little disconcerting. It has taken me over three years to bring my classroom into the 21st century. Some of it I have done through district funding, some through grants, and a good deal through my own personal funds.

In the spring of 2010, my English classroom was selected as a recipient of the 1:1 Laptop Initiative, meaning each student would receive a laptop for daily classroom use.

Managing such an environment is not an easy task. Weaving the technology into the instruction takes much training and planning. It is not a setup appropriate for the proverbial faint of heart. In addition to organization, the second most daunting aspect of efficiently managing a technology-oriented classroom is the on-the-spot troubleshooting that such technology requires. However, in the end, establishing up a technology-based classroom does eliminate several hours of valuable future planning time once necessary materials are created and saved.

I now run a mostly paperless classroom. We still must rely on paper for some of our assignments because not all of my students have Internet access at home. My students use Edmodo.com, Writeboard.com and Evernote.com as collaboration tools, submit assignments — which will be graded and returned electronically — on the course management site Rcampus.com, and complete work using various other sites that encourage higher order thinking skills.

I have not yet had the chance to witness an impact on test scores, since our End of Course examination was piloted last year during a semester I was teaching another course, but I am looking forward at the end of this semester to seeing how my students’ scores match up to other students in the school and statewide — and to gauge what factor I believe technology may or may not have played in that role. I have seen significantly more engagement in student learning since I moved from the traditional paper-pencil-textbook format to technology-based learning, and I saw positive results on last year’s writing examination after incorporating technology to teach students how to write persuasively.

As mentioned, technology is not the sole answer to education woes; of course, it takes a qualified teacher with adequate content knowledge and delivery skills, but with those factors in place, technology is crucial to students’ success in the 21st century. The ability to collaborate and to readily access valuable information, along with access to tools that allow for differentiated learning, have the potential, in the right hands, to revolutionize learning as we may have known it.

It will most certainly be the new modus operandi of instruction, and we must, as a society, be ready for it.

Voter ID initiative is a necessary cost STARKVILLE — A new Brennan Center for Justice study claims that state voting law changes like Mississippi’s Initiative No. 27 that would implement voter identification requirements that make it harder for eligible voters to cast their ballots and base that claim on the contention that over 10 percent of potential voters don’t have government-issued photo ID. At face value, the supposed alarm bells being rung by the study ring hollow. Mississippi’s Voter ID initiative “provides that any voter lacking government-issued photo identification may obtain photo identification without charge from the Mississippi Department of Public Safety; and exempts certain residents of statelicensed care facilities and religious objectors from being required to show photo identification in order to vote.”

The state’s Legislative Budget Office even put a price tag on the financial impact of the measure. If adopted, the state will lose the $1.5 million in revenue it took made in Fiscal Year

Sid Salter Columnist

2010 at providing over 107,000 photo IDs to U.S. citizens of voting age at $14 per card to offset the actual $17.92

per card cost.

How controversial is voter ID nationwide?

Some 30 states already require some form of photo or non-photo identification for voters at the polls.

There are 10 states — Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Wisconsin — that presently require government-issued photo ID. So the arguments that voter ID will be some major shock to the body politic in Mississippi, that it will unfairly target the poor or minorities, or that government-issued photo IDs are difficult or expensive to acquire are bogus arguments. While the Brennan study does not draw partisan distinc-

tions, some leading liberal newspapers in the country argue that voter ID is a Republican plot to disenfranchise Democrats.

That argument likewise is suspect and is often followed by assertions that instances of voter fraud that would be solved by voter ID represent an infinitesimal percentage of the vote.

It’s on that point that critics of voter ID have a peg on which to hang their hats.

The implication is that a little bit of voter fraud is okay so long as people aren’t “intimidated” by being asked for identification.

As I’ve written before, voter ID requirements are long overdue in Mississippi and have reached the ballot over the most specious and manufactured objections. But as critics suggest, voter ID won’t solve Mississippi’s most prevalent voter fraud issues — absentee ballot fraud and affidavit ballot fraud.

In 20 of the state’s 82 counties in the Aug. 3 primary election, absentee ballots made up 10 percent or more of total votes cast.

Quitman County — where 29 percent, or 1,040 of

3,580 votes, were cast with absentee ballots — set the pace. In 19 other counties, absentee ballots accounted for between 10 percent and 18 percent of each county’s total vote: Claiborne, Grenada, Issaquena, Noxubee, Greene, Sharkey, Humphreys, Carroll, Clay, Holmes, Leflore, Tallahatchie, Benton, Jefferson, Alcorn, Franklin, Montgomery, Walthall and Winston.

The voter ID initiative will pass by a significant majority. But if ballot security and integrity is the real goal, that will only complete a portion of the task at hand. Next must follow a substantial package of absentee and affidavit ballot reforms to finish the job.

Despite institutional Republican opposition — which has mirrored institutional Democratic opposition to voter ID — the most important election modernization tool that’s missing in Mississippi is early voting — something working successfully in other Southern states.

Where have all the innovative people gone?

The death of one of the great innovators of our time, or any time — Steve Jobs — brings a question asked by Pete Seeger in another context. To paraphrase: Where have all the (creative) people gone; long time passing. Jobs and fellow computer innovator Bill Gates represent if not a vanishing breed, then at least one that might be classified, were it an exotic animal, as endangered.

In a country that used to encourage, promote, honor and reward innovation, why does there now seem to be far fewer innovators?

In our past, they propelled us to higher standards of living and made life more enjoyable and comfortable. If you missed them while studying sex education in school, try Googling “i nventors and innovators” and see what pops up.

Once we applauded innovation. Now, politicians like President Obama, denounce the successful, maliciously labeling them “millionaires and billionaires,” as if success were a flu virus that we needed an inoculation to protect ourselves from. If we penalize and stigmatize success we are likely to get less of it.

If we promote and encourage the principles that can lead to success, Cal we are Thomas certain to get more Columnist successful people and the entire world will benefit as a result.

Instead of admiring the principles that propelled people to become successful and encourages others to follow the example of a Steve Jobs, President Obama and so many in the liberal political establishment, treat them like shoplifters who have stolen what rightfully belonged to others, even though others may not have worked as hard, taken as many risks or invested as much capital. For one of many examples, look at the “Wall Street occupiers” who are clogging streets and buildings far from Wall Street.

When you plant, water and fertilize a field of seed corn, you get a bumper crop. When you deny the field these basic elements,

you get nothing. It is the same with inventiveness and innovation. Benjamin Franklin noted, “He that is good for making excuses is seldom good at anything else.” We make excuses for failure and mediocrity and get more of both. Celebrity and sex occupy more and more of our time and attention, as opposed to hard work and commitment.

Thomas Edison, another great innovator, observed, “Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” Or, if you prefer Auntie Mame: “Life’s a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death.”

Why work when you can get a government check for doing nothing? Why be motivated to achieve when blaming someone else for your lack of achievement makes you feel better?

Whatever happened to that little phrase I was taught as a child, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again”?

Today, the failure to succeed just once can lead to a discrimination lawsuit.

Instead of persistence when we fail to accomplish a task or satisfy a desire, we call a lawyer to sue some-

one for blocking our way.

Accountants and bankers too often focus on quarterly earnings, not the long haul that sometimes requires spending on projects that don’t work until one stumbles upon a project that does.

Alexander Graham Bell failed many times while attempting to transmit his voice over a wire until he finally succeeded. A quote attributed to Bell: “When one door closes another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the ones which open for us.”

Sometimes doors must be broken down, but, today, breaking down doors is more likely to get a person’s business success regulated and taxed to death by government.

Steve Jobs was an innovator and pioneer in the grandest American tradition. He was a descendant of forward-looking people more common in America’s past, but in shorter supply today.

Long time passing; long time ago.

Schools debate election vs. appointment

Associated Press

COLUMBUS — It was fall 1997, and the situation was unlike any the Lowndes County School District had ever faced.

Halfway through his second term, Superintendent Tommy Smith disappeared. He stopped attending meetings, stopped returning phone calls and left the state.

No one knew what to do. If he were appointed, he could be fired and replaced, but the county school system was — and still is — one of the few districts in the nation to have an elected superintendent. The only way to replace Smith was to hold a new election, and until he contacted someone, nothing could be done.

Eventually, Smith called and said he was burned out; he dreaded coming to work; he promised to resign. Days passed, then weeks.

State Rep. Gary Chism, R-Columbus, remembers that cold December well.

He was an LCSD board member at the time, and he vowed that if he made it to the state Legislature, no school board in Mississippi would ever be hamstrung by an elected superintendent again.

Since his election to the state House of Representatives in 1999, Chism has introduced 12 bills trying to mandate appointed superintendents, but every time the issue comes up for a vote, it is defeated. In January, Chism intends to try one more time, hoping

McNutt loses appeal in slaying case JACKSON — The state Court of Appeals has denied claims from Demetrius McNutt that his guilty plea to his role in the 2008 slaying of 26-year-old Brent Jackson was involuntary.

McNutt also claimed his attorney didn’t do a good job and he deserved a new trial.

McNutt pleaded guilty in 2009 in Jackson County Circuit Court on Tuesday to robbing and shooting Jackson, then stealing his vehicle, $5,000 and drugs.

McNutt was originally charged with capital murder but pleaded guilty to murder. He was sentenced to life in prison.

The Appeals Court said Tuesday that court records show McNutt voluntarily admitted he committed the crime and described his part in the crime in detail when he entered the plea.

Winchester’s new Oxford plant opens OXFORD — Gov. Haley Barbour and officials with the Olin Corp., the parent of Winchester, the cut the ribbon Wednesday on the new Centerfire ammunition manufacturing operations in Oxford.

About 1,000 people are expected to eventually be employed at the Centerfire plant when it reaches its production capacity over the next five years.

The facility will produce small caliber pistol and rifle ammunition for commercial, law enforcement and military customers.

“It is great to be in Oxford celebrating the opening of the Winchester Centerfire operations less than a year after Olin officials announced they were bringing 1,000 jobs to Mississippi,” Barbour said. “I appreciate the commitment by Olin and the support provided by the Mississippi Development Authority, Lafayette County and the city of Oxford to bring Winchester Centerfire here.”

Thomas J. O’Keefe, president of Olin Corporation’s Winchester Division, said the state-of-theart facility will allow the company to better serve its customers.

The decision to move the Centerfire plant from East Alton, Ill., to Oxford was announced in November 2010. Ground was broken Jan. 24 for the construction of the new 500,000-square-foot plant in the North Oxford Industrial Park. The first equipment for the new plant arrived in August.

The hiring of the first 200 to 250 employees is under way.

“When you have a superintendent and a board at odds, there needs to be some way to be able to resolve that issue. The board is not to do the day-to-day running of a school district.”

State Rep. Gary Chism 13 ends up being his lucky number.

The legislation is backed by the Mississippi Board of Education, which plans to discuss the matter at its annual leadership conference in November. Currently, only 147 of the nation’s 14,500 school districts have elected superintendents; 64 of those elected superintendents are in Mississippi, and the remainder are in Alabama and Florida.

Chism, along with supporters of the bill, believes appointing superintendents removes the politics from the position, allowing board members to select the best candidate for the job and freeing the superintendent to make tough, but necessary choices without fear of ballot-box backlash.

“When you have a superintendent and a board at odds, there needs to be some way to be able to resolve that issue,” Chism said. “The board is not to do the day-to-day running of a school district, but when you have a superintendent that won’t make a decision, it’s really hard for the board to get anything accomplished.”

Appointing a superintendent also removes popularity from the process, said school board attorney and state Rep. Jeff Smith, R-Columbus. Jeff Smith is no relation to former LCSD Superintendent Tommy Smith.

Smith remembers December 1997’s leadership limbo, too, because he called the attorney general’s office to ask what could be done about an itinerant superintendent and being told “We don’t really know, but if you figure it out, tell us.”

Smith said he and Chism are hopeful that by tweaking the bill to affect only Lowndes County instead of school districts across the state, perhaps it will pass the House this time.

The issue has detractors as well as supporters, particularly among Delta legislators, whom Chism said tend to lean toward elected superintendents “possibly because they feel like they would be able to elect a black to that position.”

“A lot of white areas, too, just don’t want to give up their right to select somebody. We like to make them come and

MICHIE HEALTHCARE ASSOCIATES, LLC 731-239-9470 5823 HWY 22 South, Michie, TN Next to Michie Pharmacy Walk-ins Welcome

stand before us every four years,” he said.

Smith used to feel the same way.

“When I got elected to the Legislature, I was diehard for elected officials until we had the experience with our superintendent,” he said. “Then I realized this was an untenable situation.”

The Lowndes County School District board of education plans to discuss the pending legislation at its regular meeting Oct. 14. For the law to be changed, the request must first be approved by the county school board, then approved by the state Legislature and Justice Department and offered as a referendum in the county.

Even if the bill passes, it will not affect the tenure of the school board’s next superintendent, who will be elected to a four-year term during the Nov. 8 general election.

BlackBerry outages spread to US, Canada Associated Press

NEW YORK — BlackBerry users across the world were exasperated Wednesday as an outage of email, messaging and Internet services on the phones spread to the U.S. and Canada and stretched into the third day for Europe, Asia, Latin America and Africa.

It was the biggest outage in years for BlackBerry users, and strained their relationship with an already tarnished brand. It came on the eve of the launch of a mighty competitor — a new iPhone model.

Research In Motion Ltd., the Canadian company that makes the phones, said a crucial link in its European infrastructure failed Monday, and a backup didn’t work either. The underlying problem has been fixed, but a backlog of emails and messages has built up that the company has yet to work down.

Meanwhile, emails and messages from other regions to Europe were piling up in RIM’s systems in the rest of the world, like letters clog-

ging a mailbox. That caused the outages in the U.S. and Asia, said David Yach, RIM’s chief technology officer for software.

At Zenprise Inc., a Fremont, Calif., firm that helps companies manage BlackBerrys issued to employees, vice president Ahmed Datoo said emails started piling up on U.S. servers shortly after midnight. By morning, the congestion was heavy enough at a particular client company to delay all email for BlackBerrys. The pileup started to ease in the afternoon.

RIM is already struggling with delays in getting new phones out, a tablet that’s been a dud and shares that are approaching a five-year low. In the latest quarter, it sold 10.6 million phones, down from 12.1 million the same period last year.

The duration of the latest outage could force large businesses to rethink their use of BlackBerrys, said Gartner analyst Carolina Milanesi.

Many of them have stuck with the phones because of the quality and

efficiency of its email system, but that’s now in question, she said.

Consumers are having second thoughts too. Andrew Mills, a child abuse investigator for the state of Arkansas, said he’d been thinking of getting some other smartphone for a while, and the outage was the “nail in the coffin� for him.

The 27-year-old has used BlackBerrys for five years, but friends and family have abandoned them, and he’s set to do so in a few weeks. “From what I can see on their new phones they’re not doing anything that’s competing with Droid and iPhone,� he said.

In the United Arab Emirates, the two biggest phone companies said they would compensate their BlackBerry users for the mishap by giving them at least three days of free service. Matthew Willsher, chief marketing officer for Etisalat, the country’s biggest telecom, said it was acting in response to the “exceptional and unprecedented circumstances.�

Defense drops claim Jackson swallowed fatal dose Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The defense for the doctor charged in Michael Jackson’s death surprised prosecutors and a judge on Wednesday, dropping a key claim that the singer swallowed a fatal dose of an anesthetic while the physician wasn’t looking.

Dr. Conrad Murray’s attorneys have for months suggested that Jackson could have swallowed propofol, which is normally given through an IV drop in hospital settings.

They told jurors in opening statements that they would present a theory that Jackson swallowed several pills of the sedative lorazepam and somehow self-administered the propofol — killing the singer before he had a chance to close his

eyes.

On Wednesday, without jurors in the courtroom, attorney J. Michael Flanagan said he commissioned a study about the effects of propofol if swallowed, mainly to counter one by a key prosecution expert that it would have been negligible.

Flanagan said the defense study confirmed that the effect would be “trivial.� “We are not going to assert at any time during this trial that Michael Jackson orally administered propofol,�

Flanagan said.

Deputy District Attorney David Walgren and Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor appeared surprised by the disclosure. It was unclear, however, if the defense planned to argue that

Jackson might have injected himself with the fatal dose.

In recent days, Flanagan has focused his questions toward prosecution witnesses on the effect that lorazepam might have had on Jackson. Lorazepam was detected in Jackson’s stomach contents after he died.

Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter.

Prosecutors are in the final stages of their case against Murray, with three expert witnesses set to testify about their impressions of Murray’s actions in the days and hours before Jackson’s death and his efforts to revive him.

On Wednesday, Walgren called Dr. Alon Steinberg, a cardiologist

It’s Coming...

October 18th

who told jurors that Murray displayed gross negligence and repeatedly violated the standard of care.

He said Murray lacked the propofol monitoring or life-saving equipment when he was giving Jackson the anesthetic and other sedatives as a sleep aid. Steinberg said Murray should have never given Jackson the anesthetic outside a hospital setting, and criticized his attempts to resuscitate Jackson.

Steinberg said he based his testimony on statements Murray made to police about the dosages of propofol and other sedatives that he gave Jackson, and that the doctor had left the room for only two minutes before finding the singer unresponsive. He said based on Murray’s characterization, Jackson could have been saved if the proper equipment were present and proper life-saving techniques were employed.

6 killed in salon shooting SEAL BEACH, Calif.— Six people were killed and three were wounded Wednesday in a shooting at a hair salon in a normally sedate Southern California beach community, authorities said.

The six deaths were confirmed and the other three victims were taken to a hospital in critical condition, police Sgt. Steve Bowles told KCAL-TV. Police arrested a man in a traffic stop a halfmile from the shooting scene and he was taken into custody, Bowles said. He added that multiple weapons were seized.

The motive was not immediately known.

The shooting was reported at 1:21 p.m. in a cluster of small businesses on Pacific Coast Highway.Â

Iran’s plot shows inexperience, deadly intent WASHINGTON — The alleged Iranian plot against the Saudi ambassador to Washington was “amateur hour,� an unusually clumsy operation for Iran’s elite foreign action unit, the Quds Force, U.S. officials said Wednesday as further strangerthan-fiction details emerged of the assassination gone wrong.

The Iranians’ would-be covert operative turned to a woman he met while working as a used car dealer, hoping to find a Mexican drug dealer-assassin, and wound up with an American informant instead, according to two U.S. law enforcement officials.

Other U.S. officials said Manssor Arbabsiar made further mistakes, including arranging a payoff for the attack in an easily traceable way.

They attributed the missteps to Iran’s relative inexperience carrying out covert operations in the United States and Mexico.

They said the U.S. believes the planned attack on the Saudi ambassador was conceived in part as proof that such an operation could be carried off. Then, perhaps, Iran would have followed up with a series of attacks against other embassies in the U.S. and in Argentina, officials said.

Nigerian man pleads guilty DETROIT— A Nigerian man pleaded guilty Wednesday to trying to bring down a jetliner with a bomb in his underwear, defiantly telling a federal judge that he acted in retaliation for the killing of Muslims worldwide and referring to the failed explosive as a “blessed weapon.�

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who acknowledged working for al-Qaida and never denied the allegations, entered the plea against his attorney’s advice on the second day of his trial. He stands to get a mandatory life sentence for the 2009 attack that aimed to kill nearly 300 people on Christmas Day in the skies above Detroit.

Abdulmutallab calmly answered the judge’s questions and read a political statement warning that if the United States continues “to persist and promote the blasphemy of Muhammad and the prophets,� it risks “a great calamity ... through the hands of the mujahedeen soon.� “If you laugh at us now, we will laugh at you later on the day of judgment,� he said.

The surge is even more remarkable considering that it came right after the S&P 500 nearly entered a bear market. On Oct. 4, it traded below 1,090, a 20 percent drop from its recent peak in April. Had it closed at or below that level, it would have entered what stock watchers call a bear market.

due to new efforts by European leaders to contain the continentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt problems. On Wednesday, European Commission President Jose-Manuel Barroso presented a plan to strengthen European banks and lower Greeceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt. Greece is still waiting to receive the next installment of its emergency loans. However, there is a growing belief that even those loans wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prevent the government from defaulting on its debt.

Separately, a Slovakian opposition party leader said that countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political parties have agreed to approve a deal to strengthen Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

financial rescue program.

Slovakiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parliament blocked the deal Tuesday. That set back efforts to free up more funds for indebted European countries and banks.

Myths, misperceptions about credit scores rampant Associated Press

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A poor credit score can make it hard to get a mortgage, a new car or a decent interest rate on a credit card.

Yet 42 percent of those polled in a recent Visa Inc. survey never bother to check their score.

By ignoring this vital measure of credit worthiness, consumers may be missing an opportunity to improve their score.

And for many, failure to take any action could cost them thousands in higher interest payments.

One reason for neglecting this issue is that scores usually come with a price tag.

Anyone who wants to check their scores before applying for a loan will have to pay.

FICO Inc., the company that created credit scoring, sells its scores for $19.95 on its website, www.myfico.com . The company also offers periodic score monitoring services starting at $4.95 per month.

The three main reporting companies, Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian, most commonly provide FICO scores to lenders; but FICO scores arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out there. The credit agencies also calculate their own scores that they sell to consumers Equifax and TransUnion sell VantageScores, which range from 501 to 990. VantageScores are used by some lenders but have a far smaller piece of the market than FICO scores.

Some Equifax products also include FICO scores.

Experian offers both VantageScores and its own calculation, called a PLUS score, which ranges

from 330 to 830. PLUS scores are â&#x20AC;&#x153;educationalâ&#x20AC;? scores that are not used by lenders.

Lenders are now required to provide the scores they considered to applicants who are denied credit or given a higher interest rate. But even the FICO scores provided to lenders by the three agencies wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t likely be identical, either because the details on credit reports can vary or because they use different formulas created by FICO. Watch out for promises of free credit scores.

These offers usually require you to sign up for a score monitoring service that charges a monthly fee. The website CreditKarma.com is genuinely free, but offers only an approximation of a score, not an actual score that is used by a lender.

It helps to know what information is used to develop a credit score. A FICO score is calculated from the following data: â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 35 percent: An individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s payment history, whether or not payments are made on time. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 30 percent: Amounts owed and how much available credit is being used. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 15 percent: Length of credit history, or how long each account has been open. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 10 percent: An individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s use of new credit or recent applications that resulted in a credit score check. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 10 percent: What types of credit the individual is using â&#x20AC;&#x201D; mortgages, car loans, personal loans, credit cards, etc.

of data used to calculate scores.

The main points are well known. The survey found 78 percent of the respondents knew that bill payment history is factored in, and 71 percent were aware that current debt levels have an impact.

But just 13 percent knew that bankruptcy would be considered as part of payment history.

And an alarming number of those polled also had wrong ideas about other types of information being included in the equation.

For instance, 64 percent believe that income is a factor, and 60 percent think employment history counts. Nearly 59 percent said they thought the interest rates on current debt matters for scores, and 53 percent think assets or savings is weighed.

A substantial number also mistakenly believe that demographics play a

role. Among the mistaken beliefs are that traits like gender, race, national origin or the ability to speak English are factored in â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with the number one misconception being the 39 percent that thought age is included.

In fact, FICO points out on its website that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illegal to consider age, race, religion, national origin, gender and marital status in credit scoring. The company says it only considers the payment and account information found in a credit report.

If you find you have a low score, but you know your payment history and other factors are good, it may indicate thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incorrect information on your credit report.

That means a head-inthe-sand approach to the numbers could result in missing out on early detection of issues like identity theft. It may even put getting a new job in jeopardy.

IDENTITY OF THE LORDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S CHURCH # 2 Last week, we started a series of articles on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Identity of the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Churchâ&#x20AC;? and showed that the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church can be identiďŹ ed by its origin. We will look at some other things by which the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church can be identiďŹ ed.

The Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church can be identiďŹ ed by its builder. Christ promised to build his church in Matthew 16:18. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against itâ&#x20AC;?. Christ had the authority to build his church according to Matthew 28:18. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earthâ&#x20AC;?. Man made churches do not belong to Christ because He had nothing to do with starting them. Jesus stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;. . . Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted upâ&#x20AC;? (Matt 15:13). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it . . .â&#x20AC;?(Ps 127:1).

The Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church can also be identiďŹ ed by its foundation.

Peter confessed Christ to be the Son of God. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living Godâ&#x20AC;? (Matt 16:16). The confession of Peter was the bedrock foundation upon which Christ would build his church. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christâ&#x20AC;? (1 Cor 3:11). Christ is also described as the chief corner stone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;. . . Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confoundedâ&#x20AC;?

(1 Pet 2:6).

The Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church is also identiďŹ ed as the one body. Paul taught that the church was the body of Christ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that ďŹ lleth all in all (Eph 1:21-22). Paul also taught there is only one body or church. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your callingâ&#x20AC;?

(Eph 4:4). The Bible plainly teaches that Christ only has one body or church.

So far we have seen that the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church can be identiďŹ ed by the time, place of its origin, its builder, its foundation, and by the one body or church. Religious organizations that do not possess these characteristics cannot be the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church.

Auburn avoids major violations The Associated Press

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — The NCAA said it found no major violations committed by Auburn regarding Cam Newton or other pay-for-play allegations and has concluded multiple investigations of the program.

The NCAA released a statement Wednesday saying it has closed its 13-month investigation into Auburn’s recruitment of the Heisman Trophywinning quarterback, whose father shopped his services to another school for nearly $200,000.

The dark cloud of the investigation hovered over the program during the Tigers’ national championship run.

The NCAA also cleared Auburn in allegations by four former players that they received payments during their recruitment or careers.

The NCAA notified Auburn of the decision on Tuesday in a letter from associate director of enforcement Jackie A.

Thurnes. Auburn released it Wednesday.

Thurnes said NCAA enforcement staff and the university conducted more than 50 interviews into whether Newton was paid to sign with Auburn and examined documents including bank records, tax filings and phone and email records.

“The NCAA enforcement staff is committed to a fair and thorough investigative process,” the NCAA said in a statement. “As such, any allegations of major rules violations must meet a burden of proof, which is a higher standard than rampant public speculation online and in the media. The allegations must be based on credible and persuasive information and includes a good-faith belief that the Committee on Infractions could make a finding.

“As with any case, should the enforcement staff become aware of additional credible information, it will review the information to determine whether further investigation is warranted.”

The NCAA agreed with Auburn’s selfreport from Nov. 30, 2010, that Cecil Newton and the owner of a scouting service, Kenny Rogers, shopped Cam Newton’s services to Mississippi State out of junior college, but that there was no evidence the player or Auburn knew about it.

Newton led the Tigers to a national title and was the No. 1 NFL draft pick by the Carolina Panthers, who made him an instant starter. The final months of his spectacular season were clouded by the allegations, though.

More allegations surfaced in March when the four former Auburn players raised more claims of wrongdoing in the program.

Raven Gray, Stanley McCover, Chaz Ramsey and Troy Reddick all told HBO’s “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” that they received thousands of dollars while being recruited by or playing for the Tigers.

Season over for Benard The Associated Press

BEREA, Ohio — Browns defensive end Marcus Benard has been lost for the season with a broken hand sustained when he crashed his threewheel motorcycle.

The Browns placed Benard, their leader in sacks last season, on the reserve non-football injury list Wednesday, ending his season after just four games.

Team spokesman Neal Gulkis said Benard will spend Wednesday night at the Cleveland Clinic, his third night in the hospital since wrecking his motorcycle shortly after the team completed its first workout following a bye week.

Brooklyn Police estimated Benard was thrown nearly 80 yards after smashing his Can-Am Spyder motorcycle into a guardrail.

It is not known if Benard has other injuries.

Coach Pat Shurmur, who spoke with Benard, said he was not aware the 26-year-old rode a motorcycle. Shurmur said he has warned his players about their off-the-field conduct.

“I have addressed the team on numerous occasions,” he said. “We want and I want our players to avoid any and all risky behavior. I think it’s obvious what some of that may be. It’s been addressed. Obviously, when something happens you try to reinforce that shouldn’t be something that the players are involved with.”

Shurmur said he was thankful Benard was not more seriously injured, and said getting a phone call about a player being hurt was like learning that his child was injured.

Shurmur believes Benard has a future with the Browns.

Benard was charged with driving with a suspended license and reckless operation in the one-vehicle crash. He has a court date scheduled for Oct. 18. A witness told police Benard was driving at “a high rate of speed” and crossed four lanes of traffic before smashing into the guardrail on Interstate-71.

Benard had 71⁄2 sacks last season, one year after he came off the practice squad as a rookie to record 31⁄2 sacks in six games.

Benard may have violated a clause in his contract prohibiting him from riding a motorcycle during the season, and the Browns could choose to withhold some of his $525,000 salary.

Northeast looking to bounce back Special to the Daily Corinthian

BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College will look to get back on track tonight against winless Coahoma.

Northeast (5-1, 3-1 in North Division) suffered its first setback of the season -- a 63-35 pounding by East Mississippi -- while Coahoma fell 30-27 to Itawamba..

Tonight’s test for the Tigers will be a tough one with Coahoma having dropped three of its contests by 10 points or less.

Coahoma opened the season with a 10-point loss to Southwest. During Week 3, it suffered a heart-breaking

15-14 setback to Holmes as the Bulldogs decided to go for two and the win after scoring with seven seconds to go in the game.

In Thursday’s loss to Itawamba the Indians were able to break through and block three extra-point attempts.

Northeast enters the game with a pair of quarterbacks that can get the Tigers back on the winning track. Parks Frazier (Corinth) has been the Tigers go-to signal caller most of the season and has thrown for nearly 600 yards and 11 touchdowns after completing 49 of his 106 pass attempts on the season.

J.R. Jennings (Calhoun City) took most of the snaps during the second half on Saturday and put up good numbers going 10-for-28 passes for 173 yards and three scores. Jennings added a fourth score on the ground.

Frazier and Jennings have helped lead the Northeast offense to 265.5 yards per game. The Tigers will look to improve on that average against a defense that is allowing nearly 400 yards per game -- worst in the state.

Northeast’s defense, which still leads the division in points allowed even after allowing 63, will have to stop Jaszy Parker and Daveonn

Porter. Porter is second in the league with 610 yards rushing and has four touchdowns.

Porter’s 101.6 yards per game average puts the Coahoma running back near the top of the league as well.

Parker is just 34-for-77 with six interceptions and four scores while throwing for 415 yards for the homestanding Tigers.

While Coahoma had three extra-point attempts blocked last week, Northeast will be relying on its special teams to help the Tigers put a check in the win column.

In NBA dispute, money not mattering most The Associated Press

NEW YORK — NBA owners apparently weren’t bluffing when they said they wanted competitive balance just as much as a chance to profit.

Though Commissioner David Stern and Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver have insisted throughout the lockout they needed the potential for both in a new collective bargaining agreement, there was often a belief — even from players — that money mattered most.

Yet it was the salary cap system, not the division of revenues, that emerged as the biggest obstacle to a new labor deal in time to save the start of the regular season.

“The numbers are close enough that that wasn’t going to doom the season.

The hard salary cap is what’s going to doom the season right now,” players’ attorney Jeffrey Kessler said Monday.

“That’s the sticking point, because the numbers are close enough that if there

was a fair system, the parties would find a way to get there.”

That’s not what union president Derek Fisher had predicted less than a month earlier.

Talks had broken down after a meeting in September in which players were prepared to make a new economic proposal, but the league said players conditioned it on owners conceding on the salary cap.

It was clear the union believed management was prioritizing the financial picture when Fisher said afterward that “if we can address these economics, we’re not going to lose the season over the system. So that’s something that’s been clear from the beginning and will remain from our perspective.”

The split was never settled, but both sides say they see where compromise could be reached. Players had proposed lowering their guarantee of basketball revenues from 57 percent down to 53,

which they said would transfer more than $1 billion to owners over six years.

But in doing so, they expected something in return.

“I think where our paths separate is that they believe to the extent they’re willing to make economic concessions that we should be willing to leave the current system largely intact, and our view is that the current system is broken in that 30 teams are not in a position to compete for championships,” Silver said Monday after the league canceled the first two weeks of the regular season.

The league’s view is that teams willing to keep spending above the luxury tax level have an advantage over teams with payroll constraints. And indeed, teams such as the Lakers and Mavericks, who won the last three NBA titles, are annually among the top spenders.

So owners want a system under which teams with means can’t keep blowing off the cap.

Manuel expects Phils to contend The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Still stinging from an early postseason exit, Charlie Manuel isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ready to lower his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expectations.

The Philadelphia Phillies didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win the World Series title that everyone from management to players to fans expected this season. But their manager doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to settle for less. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Absolutely not,â&#x20AC;? Manuel said Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way I like it. You can put expectations on all you want to, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the expectations that they put on themselves and how we look at things. Right now, when we go to spring training, what we will be talking about is getting to the World Series and win. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been our goal ever since we won after 2008.â&#x20AC;?

The Phillies followed up the best regular season in franchise history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 102 wins was a franchise record â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with their worst disappointment in the postseason. They blew a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five first-round series against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Even having all those aces couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help the Phillies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our expectation coming out of spring training, we wanted to go to the World Series and win.

That was our ultimate goal. We did not fulfill that goal,â&#x20AC;? Manuel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a tremendous regular season, we got to the first round of the playoffs and got beat.â&#x20AC;?

Spurrier: Gamecocks have to move on The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C.â&#x20AC;&#x201D; South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier hoped Stephen Garciaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time as Gamecocks quarterback would end with a championship celebration instead of the way it did after the fifth-year seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dismissal.

On Wednesday, Spurrier told his players itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to move ahead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coach Spurrier said what it was,â&#x20AC;? reserve quarterback Seth Strickland said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Stephenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to move on.â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Garcia was dismissed from South Carolina on Tuesday after failing an alcohol test, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press.

mont) will be looked upon to flip the field position if Northeast is forced into a punting situation.

Harrison bumped his season average up to an even 40 yards against East Mississippi and has a long punt of 52 yards on the season.

Northeast placekicker Taylor Earhart (Olive Branch) continues to stay near the top of the scoring column for the Tigers.

Earhart currently leads the team with 38 points and is fourth in the state after converting on 20-of-22 extra points and 6-of8 field goal attempts during the first six games of the season.

Deion Belue (Tuscumbia, Ala.) provided a spark for the Tigers on special teams against East Mississippi when the Tiger sophomore returned a kickoff 80 yards in the first quarter. The sophomore also turned the trick against Coahoma in the Tigers 2010 Homecoming game.

With the loss to East Mississippi, Northeast dropped to No. 18 in the country with Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s release of the NJCAA poll.

Northeast will also have history on its side tonight. Since 1986, Northeast is 21-4 against Coahoma and has failed to score 14 points just once during that span â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a 17-3 loss in 1999.

Since the turn of the century, Northeast is 9-2 against Coahoma but the Coahoma did take back-to-back contests in 2008 (28-25) and in 2009 (20-14Âş during a marathon four-overtime affair in Booneville.

Northeast holds the overall series lead 27-18.

of anonymity because South Carolina has not specified the reason for Garciaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s departure.

Spurrier learned Garcia would be kicked off the Gamecocks on Monday night and he spoke with his former quarterback the next day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like it. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like it,â&#x20AC;?

Spurrier said Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wish he had stayed. I wish he could have finished his career as a Gamecock one way or another.â&#x20AC;?

Sophomore Connor Shaw will make his second consecutive start for South Carolina (5-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) at Mississippi State (3-3, 0-3) on Saturday.

Spurrier benched Garcia after a miserable performance

in a 16-13 loss to Auburn, which entered as the SECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worst defense. Shaw threw for 311 yards and four touchdowns â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as many as Garcia had in five games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in last Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 54-3 victory over Kentucky.

Still, Spurrier encouraged Garcia to stay sharp and focused when the spoke on Monday since he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;one injury awayâ&#x20AC;? from returning as starter, the coach said.

Then came Monday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision from athletic director Eric Hyman that Garcia had to go. The 23-year-old from Lutz, Fla., had been suspended five times previously and was given a list of guidelines he had to follow to maintain his place on

the team.

Strickland, also the Gamecocksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; holder on placekicks, spent a year as Garciaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roommate and wished him well when the two talked this week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moving on. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supporting us and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still going to support him,â&#x20AC;? Strickland said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for both parties. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going in different directions but hopefully weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make the best out of this and Stephen will make the most of his opportunities down the road.â&#x20AC;?

Garcia had a 20-14 record as South Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starter since 2008 and helped the team to its first SEC championship game appearance last spring.

Upset of the Week You can make a strong case that Wake Forest is the most improved team in the nation. A year ago, the Demon Deacons slumped to 3–9 overall, losing five games by 30 points or more. This year, a much WAKE FOREST 35 more seasoned Forest FLORIDA STATE 30 Wake team is off to a 4–1 start, highlighted by Saturday’s 35–30 win over Florida State in WinsTon-Salem. “We’re a football team that’s good enough to beat you, but we’re not good enough to get away from you,” said veteran Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe, who has won four of his last six games against Florida State. “I think that’s the situation that we’re going to continue to be in.” Wake was outgained 425 to 391, but the Deacons did not commit a turnover. Florida State, on the other hand, turned the ball over five times, with quarterbacks Clint Trickett and EJ Manuel each throwing two interceptions. Tanner Price was terrific at quarterback for Wake Forest, completing 21-of-35 passes for 233 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. And the running game was strong as well, with Josh Harris picking up 135 yards on only 13 attempts for a healthy 10.4-yard average.

OKLAHOMA STATE AT TEXAS

Oklahoma State and Texas have met 25 times. Oklahoma State has won only three of those games — in 1944, 1997 and 2010. The Pokes are favored to pick up win No. 4 in this series— and it’s easy to see why. Led by quarterback Brandon Weeden and wideout Justin Blackmon, O-State boasts arguably the nation’s most explosive offense. Last week, the Cowboys led Kansas 56–7 at the half before cruising to a 70–28 win. Texas is solid on defense, but the Horns are fresh off of a humbling 55–17 loss to Oklahoma.

Sooner QB Landry Jones had little trouble picking apart the Texas defense. Not a good sign with Weeden & Co. coming to town. Oklahoma State 38, Texas 24

Athlon Looks Back A triple-overtime classic was one of the greatest games in the history of a great rivalry.

Score: Michigan 45, Michigan State 37 (3ot) Date: Oct. 30, 2004 Details: In 2004, Sparty departed Michigan Stadium in a state of shock and disbelief. In an epic battle that required three overtimes to decide, the Wolverines squeaked out a thrilling 45–37 victory over their in-state rivals.

MSU had a 27–10 lead with less than seven minutes left. The Wolverines then staged an amazing comeback to tie the game. Wide receiver Braylon Edwards made two leaping grabs in the end zone, hauling in the touchdown passes from freshman quarterback Chad Henne, to even the score at 27–27.

After the teams traded field goals in the first overtime session and touchdowns in the second OT, Michigan moved ahead on another Henne-to-Edwards scoring pass and a twopoint conversion. The Wolverines’ defense then stopped the Spartans to secure the victory.

“I think this game speaks to the spirit of the stadium, to the tradition and this rivalry,” coach Lloyd Carr said afterward. “Anybody who saw this game either in this stadium or across the country on television saw one of the greatest football games, in my opinion, ever played.”

ARIZONA STATE AT OREGON

ESPN College GameDay will be making a rare appearance on the West Coast for a clash between two of the elite teams in the Pac-12. Arizona State is in complete control of the South Division with a 3–0 record that includes a win over USC. Oregon will be in a battle with Stanford and possibly Washington for the top spot in the North. The Ducks’ chances at the title, however, took a hit last Thursday when star tailback LaMichael James was sidelined with an elbow injury. He is hoping to play some this weekend, but he could also be out for several weeks — it’s too early to tell. Oregon is deep at running back, but James is a true difference-maker who is very difficult to replace. Oregon 35, Arizona State 24

MICHIGAN AT MICHIGAN STATE

Michigan State is in the midst of its longest winning streak (three games) against the boys from Ann Arbor since the mid-1960s, when Duffy Daugherty & Co. outscored the Wolverines 78–14 in a three-game stretch. For the streak to reach four games, the Spartans will have to find a way to slow down Denard Robinson. The junior quarterback was terrific in Michigan’s win at Northwestern last weekend, throwing for 337 yards and two touchdowns and adding 117 yards and two scores on the ground. Last year, State limited Robinson to 86 yards rushing, a season-low at the time, and forced him into three interceptions in a 34–17 MSU win in East Lansing. The guess here is that the Spartans will do just enough to slow down Robinson and the Michigan attack. Michigan State 28, Michigan 24

Can Michigan State Continue Streak?

Prime Time Players LAMICHAEL JAMES, OREGON James became the first Oregon player to rush for at least 200 yards in three straight games with his 239-yard effort Thursday night in the Ducks’ 43–15 win over Cal. James’ night ended prematurely, however, as he was forced to leave the game early in the fourth quarter with a dislocated elbow. His status won’t be known until later this week, but there is a chance he could play some against Arizona State.

DENARD ROBINSON, MICHIGAN Robinson was at his best Saturday night, throwing for 338 yards and two touchdowns and adding 113 yards and two scores on the ground in Michigan’s 42–24 win at Northwestern. The Wolverines, 6–0 for the first time since 2006, trailed 24–14 at the half before surging ahead of the Wildcats in the final two quarters.

LOGAN THOMAS, VIRGINIA TECH The Hokies’ first-year starting quarterback, who has been compared to Cam Newton, played like the 2010 Heisman Trophy winner Saturday afternoon. The 6'6", 245-pound sophomore completed 23-of-25 passes for 310 yards and three touchdowns to lead Virginia Tech to a thrilling 38–35 comeback win over Miami (Fla.).

GENO SMITH, WEST VIRGINIA It took him a while to get going, but Smith operated Dana Holgorsen’s offense at optimal efficiency Saturday afternoon, completing 27-of45 passes for 450 yards with four touchdowns (all in the second half) and no interceptions as the Mountaineers pulled away from UConn for a 43– 16 win in Morgantown.

Michigan State senior quarterback Kirk Cousins has only thrown six touchdowns in five games this season. Last year, he threw 20 TDs in 13 games.

VIRGINIA TECH AT WAKE FOREST

Clemson is still the frontrunner in the Atlantic Division, but this clash in Winston-Salem this week could possibly be a preview of the ACC title game. Wake Forest is 3–0 in the league after last week’s impressive 35–30 win over Florida State. The Deacons, known as a rushing team early in Jim Grobe’s tenure, are getting it done through the air thanks to the emergence of quarterback Tanner Price.

Virginia Tech has a fine quarterback of its own. Sophomore Logan Thomas, a first-year starter, played his best game last Saturday, throwing for 310 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Hokies’ thrilling 38–35 comeback win over Miami (Fla.). The key to the game, however, could be Wake’s ability (or inability) to slow down Tech tailback David Wilson. If he runs wild, the Hokies should win the game. Virginia Tech 34, Wake Forest 24 BAYLOR AT TEXAS A&M

Texas A&M got back on track last weekend, holding on for a 45–40 win at Texas Tech in what could be the Aggies’ last trip ever to Lubbock. A&M once again jumped out to a big lead at the half (31–20), but this week found a way to hold on — though there were definitely some tense moments in the fourth quarter. Baylor, too, rebounded

from a difficult loss two weeks ago.

The Bears rolled past Iowa State 49–26 behind another strong performance from Robert Griffin III, who threw for over 200 yards and rushed for over 100.

These two programs have played every year since 1945, but A&M’s departure to the SEC most likely means the end of the rivalry. Texas A&M 38, Baylor 34 OHIO STATE AT ILLINOIS

Illinois is favored over Ohio State for the first time since 2001, when Ron Turner’s Illini won the Big Ten title.

The 2011 Illini, predicted by most to finish no better than fourth in the Big Ten Leaders, are one of the more surprising teams in the nation with a 6–0 overall record and a 2–0 mark in league play. Sophomore Nathan Scheelhaase is playing very well at the quarterback position, and Ron Zook’s club is making the right plays at the right times to win games. Ohio State, on the other hand, is not winning games; the Buckeyes have lost three of their last four (their worst stretch since 2004) due in large part to poor play at the quarterback position. True freshman Braxton Miller was showing signs of life Saturday night at Nebraska before going down with an ankle injury. Miller is expected to play this week — which is a good sign for the OSU offense. Illinois 24, Ohio State 20

Athlon Fantasy Flash Thanks to the tandem of quarterback Brandon Weeden and receiver Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma State leads the nation in scoring offense at 51.4 points per game. The Cowboys scored 70 in last week’s win over Kansas, and while matching that total against Texas is probably unrealistic, expect both to be top fantasy plays this week. The Longhorns gave up 367 yards and three passing scores to Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones. Winning in Austin has notz been easy for the Cowboys, but a young Texas secondary won’t slow down the Weedento-Blackmon combination.

Arkansas rides momentum of wins into bye week The Associated Press

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark.— Garrick McGee openly questioned Arkansas’ competitiveness following a 38-14 loss at Alabama last month that wasn’t as close as the score suggests.

The Razorbacks’ offensive coordinator received an answer the following two weeks -- and how.

No. 10 Arkansas (5-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) responded the week following the Crimson Tide loss with a dramatic come-

back win from an 18-point halftime deficit against Texas A&M. The Razorbacks followed that by outscoring Auburn 31-0 to close out a 38-14 win last week that provided plenty of momentum entering the team’s bye week.

The wins have also kept Arkansas’ hopes of another BCS bowl game -and maybe, still, an SEC championship -- alive.

“I think we’ve figured out that they are willing to compete at this point,” McGee said. “The one set-

back that we had, I questioned if we were willing to fight for what we wanted. The last couple of weeks, they have responded to me going after them.

“They have shown me that they’re willing to fight for it.”

The Razorbacks showed McGee that fight in the second half against the Aggies. They trailed 35-17 at halftime, with the defense struggling and their preseason expectations seemingly collapsing for good one week after the

Alabama thumping.

Arkansas recovered in the second half, outscoring the Aggies 25-3 behind quarterback Tyler Wilson’s school-record 510 passing yards and Jarius Wright’s 13 catches for 281 receiving yards.

The Razorbacks used a similar script last week against the Tigers, struggling early before running away with their first SEC win of the season.

“I definitely feel like we’re still feeding off the momentum of that Tex-

as A&M game,” Wright said. “I definitely feel like it helped ... propel us through the Auburn game and play more physical and outplay Auburn. You know, we’ve just got to feed off each and every week and just try to do the best we can each and every week.”

Arkansas entered the season with questions about an inexperienced offensive line that featured three new starters from last season’s Sugar Bowl team. It also faced

the daunting task of replacing Ryan Mallett at quarterback.

While the line has suffered through growing pains, resulting in one crushing hit after another on Wilson, the junior signal-caller has more than proven himself.

Wilson has thrown for 1,779 yards and 12 touchdowns so far, completing 64.9 percent of his throws. Those numbers compare favorably to Mallett’s first six games as the starter in 2009.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Down and dirtyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in politicsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perverted pollution

BY TERRY BURNS Movie Critic

Ides of March, R, ****1/2,Ryan Gosling, George Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, Marisa Tomei, Rachel Wood. Columbia film.

Director George Clooney; length â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 100 minutes The façade of politics and all the secrets, lies and deception can be difficult to recognize. Ohio is a barometer for the political outcome of presidential elections. It seems to have a cross section of population and demographics which allow semi-accurate political outcomes to be predicted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ides of Marchâ&#x20AC;? is about the political primary in Ohio of the democratic presiden-

tial candidate Gov. Morris (George Clooney). He is a straight talking politician who believes he can make a difference in Washington. His ability to give direct answers and allow the people to make up their minds about his sometimes controversial ideas connects with many individuals. However, he does need the endorsement of Sen. Thompson (Jeffrey Wright).

The endorsement would put Gov. Morris over the top.

However, the wheeling and dealing has to be honed in order to bring all the parts together.

Stephen Meyers (Ryan Gosling) is a hot shot press consultant for Morris giving advice and working hard for a man he believes to be gen-

uine. Paul Zara (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) is the campaign manager for Morris.

Tom Duffy (Paul Giamatti) is the campaign manager for Sen. Pullman who is Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; democratic opponent in the primary.

The audience witnesses the dirty tricks taking place in campaigns involving competition along with some extremely horrible information which surfaces from a well-kept secret.

This results in bringing out a cover-up scenario.

The most interesting portion of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ides of Marchâ&#x20AC;? is how all this brings out the worst in many people. The film does not compromise as some stories do in order to make the audience feel good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ides of Marchâ&#x20AC;? takes

the audience down the road of dark secrets and we see what the politics of today is all about.

It seems politicians and individuals climbing the ladder of success do not mind getting their hands dirty. Or in this case, filthy. Politics makes strange bedfellows.

Temptation and backroom dealing does bring out the worst in people.

Only the strong survive.

The story becomes a gutwrenching event as the audience takes the trip down the road where young innocent and vulnerable individuals can be destroyed.

As some individuals seek the opportunity for power and money, their true colors are no longer camouflaged.

Maybe their conscious be-

comes seared. A professor in college asked this question to a class I was taking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is more important power or money?â&#x20AC;? Of course it is power, because if one has power â&#x20AC;&#x201C; money follows.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ides of Marchâ&#x20AC;? refers to the 15th day of March. This is when Julius Caesar was killed by conspirators. Conniving among politicians has always been corrupt. It is not any different today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ides of Marchâ&#x20AC;? is based on the play â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farragut Northâ&#x20AC;? by Beau Willimon.

This is the second film I have watched starring Gosling in the last month. He is a top notch actor worthy of sparring with Clooney.

Office becomes psychologist chair for divorcing woman

Area student attends HOBY leadership seminar

DEAR ABBY: I share a small office space with a co-worker, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tammy,â&#x20AC;? who is going through a nasty divorce. At first I tried to be supportive and listen to her problems, but now I think it was a mistake. I now dread going to work because I know Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to listen to a litany of complaints as soon as I walk through the door.

I have tried to encourage Tammy to talk to a priest or a psychologist, but she refuses because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s embarrassed. Is it time to inform our manager? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to get Tammy in trouble, but I feel Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m incapable of giving her the kind of support she seems to need. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure how much longer I can take this. Please help. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; WELLINTENTIONED IN MINNEAPOLIS DEAR WELL-INTENTIONED: Summon up the courage to tell Tammy that

Annalee Hendrick recently attended the Mississippi site of the Hugh Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brian Youth (HOBY) Leadership Seminar. Hendrick joined more than 230 other young leaders representing over 200 high schools from throughout Mississippi this summer at Millsaps College in Jackson.

Hendrick, the daughter of Richard and Beth Hendrick , represented Corinth High School Academic and Performing Arts at the statewide seminar.

HOBY leadership seminars bring together a select group of high school sophomores from public and private high schools.

Through a three-phase approach, the students identify their personal leadership strengths, practice team leadership skills and are inspired to become

Special to the Daily Corinthian

Annalee Hendrick leaders in society. During the seminar, students interact with distinguished leaders in a variety of occupations, discussing current events and world issues, and they engage in handson leadership development activities. The goal is to provide young leaders a stimulating forum for learning about critical issues while broadening their understanding of their leadership potential and quest for self-development. HOBY leaders are also challenged to return to

their communities to perform at least 100 hours of community service within 12 months following the seminar.

Since HOBYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s founding, the goal of each seminar is to provide a catalyst to lifelong leadership development that empowers individuals to achieve their highest potential. As the ambassadors are exposed to new ideas and engage in challenging topics, HOBY hopes to illustrate how to think constructively and discuss complex issues with individuals from various backgrounds and beliefs.

HOBYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is to show the ambassadors how to think rather than what to think.

Since 1958 HOBY has been a part of more than 365,000 studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives, many of whom continue to volunteer on HOBY seminar planning committees in their local communities

and schools to keep the HOBY spirit alive.

Hugh Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brian Youth Leadership was established in 1958 by the popular actor Hugh Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brian following a visit to Africa where he was inspired by a meeting with Dr. Albert Schweitzer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the things Schweitzer said to me was that the most important thing in education was to teach young people to think for themselves,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From that inspiration ,and with the support of others who believe in youth and the American dream, I started HOBY to seek out, recognize and develop outstanding leadership potential among our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth.â&#x20AC;?

Horoscopes Thursday, October 13

By Holiday Mathis

SNUFFY SMITH

Fred Lasswell

Creators Syndicate

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Success will have more to do with your winning attitude than anything else.

You’ll express yourself in a manner that shows your intent to solve problems, not create them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Don’t try too hard to calculate every aspect of a risk. You couldn’t if you tried, and you would be wasting time and confusing the matter, as well. Use your intuition instead. If it feels right, do it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re fast arriving at your next incarnation.

Something in you wants to cling to the past. The uncertainty of “becoming” can be scary. The larger part of you realizes that this transition will be far more graceful if you throw yourself into it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will enjoy the thrill of the hunt. As it goes with these things, the idea that you will persist toward your goal until the final pounce is far more important than the prize itself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You know how to be happy, and yet you don’t always choose happiness for yourself.

It’s a matter of deciding to interpret events as beneficial to you, whether or not they seem inherently positive.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The comfort you now experience has a way of lulling you into a kind of sleepwalking state in which you walk around not noticing everything you could be noticing. Jostle yourself awake, or someone will do it for you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are in an enviable position as you enjoy the life you have made for yourself. Not only do you have what you want, but you also embody the very rare condition of wanting what you have.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The so-called “higher authority” may not have the power or knowledge you believe he should have. Be careful not to project onto people qualities they do not actually possess.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Just because you accept your past and deal with the present doesn’t mean you want more of the same in the future. In fact, you’re starting to envision something entirely different.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You rise above the pettiness to which others stoop. You’ll keep the communication lines open because you recognize that it’s the smartest, most honorable and ultimately most effective thing to do.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Others share knowledge with you. However, it doesn’t always seem at first like the gift it really is. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by too much information. Store it away for a time when you can process it more readily.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Aspiring to images of beauty that are something other than what you look like is a bit silly considering you will always be most attractive when you embrace your most authentic self.
