‘Special Brew’ photo wins Over 900

The Best of Show had a “Special Brew” to it. Dr. George Cain claimed the Crossroads Museum Photo Contest’s top award with his photo of a man begging for money outside a church in England. “I’m extremely surprised,” said Cain. “I debated whether to even put it in the contest.” The doctor took home Best of Show in his first entry to the annual contest. “I hadn’t even thought about it (contest) until I bumped into Vicki Avery,” he said. “I decided to take some (photos) down there and see what happens.” Avery’s husband, Bill, is coordinator of the contest and says there was no doubt which photo was the best. “It was an unanimous decision among all judges,” said Avery. “The entries were so good it was a tough job for them ... I was very pleased with what they came up with.” The contest had 170 entries with 1st and 2nd place awarded in the five categories of People, Landscape, Architecture, Pets/ Wildlife and Vacation. “My goal was 200 entries, but I’m happy with the total we had,” said the contest coordinator. Cain took the winning photo in July while on vacation. “I was coming out of a church and he was sitting there by a gate asking people for money,” said the Corinth physician. “We got in a conversation with each other and he let me take his picture after I made a donation to his cause.” The photo — taken at 1/200 of a second, an aperture of 3.5 and an ISO setting of Please see CONTEST | 2A

Participants sought for Heritage Festival

The Crossroads Museum is seeking artists and craftspeople who do things the old fashioned way for the 16th Annual Heritage Festival. Held the fourth weekend in October, the Heritage Festival needs skilled artisans to demonstrate and sell their traditional-style work. “We’re looking for people who want to be a part of a heritage event and do such things as pottery, metal work, sewing, quilting and spinning or who churn butter or make soap, for example,” said Janice Knighton, head of the Crossroad Museum board of trustees. “Since our purpose is to help visitors experience history firsthand and to increase appreciation for traditional skills, we’re especially looking for vendors who can demonstrate as well as sell their craft.” In past years the Heritage Festival has drawn approximately 30 to 40 craftspeople who demonstrate and sell wares from a wide variety of old time arts including canning, weaving and spinning, ceramics, pottery, slab pottery, painting, jelly- and jam-making, beekeeping, soapmaking, basketmaking and storytelling. The Heritage Festival will move from its traditional setting at the Verandah/
A busy election cycle in 2011 has added many first-time voters to the rolls in Alcorn County. Saturday was the last day for new voters to register in time for November’s general election. The circuit clerk’s office opened until noon and didn’t see a flood of activity — there were six new registrations and a couple of address changes — but the numbers have added up over the year. The clerk’s office also had extended hours during the past week, staying open until 7 p.m. “We probably had 40 or 50 during this past week,” said Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell. He estimated the election season as a whole brought in more than 900 people to register to vote. Some are people who have moved from other areas, but he has found a number of people who have registered this year were already on the voter rolls but apparently never voted before. Absentee voting is in progress for the Nov. 8 election, and it’s moving at a somewhat slow pace thus far. “We’ve got probably about 150 absentees, and out of those, probably 60 or 70 are people that are on the permanent mail-out list,” said Caldwell. All circuit clerk’s offices across the state will open on two Saturdays until noon for absentee voting — Oct. 29 and Nov. 5. Mailed absentee ballots are due by Monday, Nov. 7. The ballot includes county and state offices and ballot initiatives on voter identification, eminent domain and the definition of “person.”
Curlee House to the Crossroads Museum in the old depot in downtown Corinth. The festival will be held from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Friday, October 28, and from 8:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday, October 29. The Heritage Festival opens early on Saturday to accommodate a group of approximately 500 fifth-grade students from Alcorn County schools. “We hope that these fifth graders will learn some of these crafts and carry them on for another generation,” said Sonny Boatman, the original organizer of the event. Proceeds from the Heritage Festival will benefit the Crossroads Museum. The festival is both an educational tool and a market for handmade crafts and will feature talks and demonstrations by Sean Marcum, owner and operator of Shiloh-Corinth Battlefield Tours, as well as the music of Corinth’s Lost Cause: A Confederate String Band.
“This festival is going to be far different from any other before it,” said Marcum. “It’ll have the usual stuff — but plenty of new things too. There will be period cooking demonstrations, an Army store setup and it will be free to get into the museum.” Admission to the Heritage Festival is free. There are three options open to crafters and artists who wish to participate: 1) both demonstrating and selling - no fee; 2) demonstrating only - no fee; and 3) selling only - $10 fee, which includes both days. Vendor applications and guidelines are available on the Crossroads Museum’s Heritage Festival page on Facebook. To reserve a spot call the Crossroads Museum at 662-287-3120; or Sonny Boatman at 662-415-2688; or email Janice Knighton at janiceknighton@ comcast.net; or Cathy Wood at cathylwood@gmail.com.
Corinth’s Col. W.P. Rogers Camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans held a memorial service for Mississippi’s last two “True Sons” who died earlier this year — Willie Cartwright and James Nelms — two sons of Alcorn County and the Confederacy who were cousins as well. “It was a great event,” said Dr. Larry Mangus, commander of the Col. W.P. Rogers Camp. “We had super weather and a great turnout.” Between 75 and 100 people attended the memorial services, held at Forrest Memorial Park for Cartwright and Holly Baptist Church Cemetery for Nelms. Cartwright, who passed away on May 7 at the age of 94, was the son of Private John Harvey Cartwright of the 1st Mississippi Infantry. Private John Harvey was wounded twice in battles in Virginia. Nelms — son of James Joseph Nelms, who was a 16-year-old Confederate soldier-in-training at the war’s end — died a month later on June 7 at the age of 92. Before they passed their membership made the Corinth SCV Camp the sole camp in the nation to claim two True Sons as members. The memorial services featured the music of Mike Byrd and Keith Letson of Confederate string band Lost Cause. The duo performed a rendition of “Dixie.” “It was an honor for us to play music at a memorial for someone who actually had a conversation with somebody who fought in the Civil War,” said Byrd. “We love that stuff.” The services featured a salute by reenactors and speeches from guest SCV digPlease see SONS | 3A

Cain, who took up the hobby 4-5 years ago in an effort to take photos of his son playing football, also took the top two places in the People Category. His “A Friendly Chop” was awarded first place while “Two on Two” -- a football photo of two players with the same number of two vying for the football in a game between Kossuth and Tishomingo County -- placed second. He took the two places also in Architecture, winning with “Bath Time”

Jury convicts Jumpertown man in chop shop case BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
BOONEVILLE — A Jumpertown man charged in connection with the operation of an alleged chop shop near Jumpertown was convicted last week of one count of possessing a vehicle with an altered identification number, while a jury was unable to reach a verdict on three other related charges. Jurors deliberated for nearly six hours last Thursday before returning the single guilty verdict against Henry Lawson. Lawson was found guilty of possession of a vehicle with an altered or mutilated vehicle identification number. He was sentenced as a habitual offender to five years in prison, to be served day for day without the possibility of parole. The jury was unable to come to a unanimous decision on three other counts against Lawson that were
tried at the same time. A mistrial was declared after jurors informed Circuit Court Judge James L. Roberts Jr. that they were hopelessly deadlocked on counts 1, 3 and 4 of the indictment which charged Lawson with operating a chop shop, receiving or possession of a stolen vehicle and possession of a vehicle with a mutilated vehicle identification number. Prosecutors have the option to retry Lawson on the charges on which no verdict was returned. Prosecutors accused Lawson of operating a chop shop and of deliberately altering or removing the VIN (vehicle identification numbers) of vehicles that had been stolen to allow them to be resold. Lawson’s defense attorney, Bradley Tennison, argued his client was far too ill at the time of the alleged crimes to have been involved in any illegal activi-
ties. He also argued others were clearly responsible for any alterations to identification numbers in relation to the other charges. The single count on which Lawson was convicted accused him of deliberately altering the vehicle identification number on a white Chevrolet truck converted into a rollback wrecker. Prosecutors contended Lawson failed to follow proper procedures and illegally altered the truck. Tennison unsuccessfully argued the truck was altered without any criminal intent to convert it from a two-door to a four-door and there was not intent to commit a criminal act. Lawson and eight other individuals were arrested in 2009 in connection with an investigation into alleged chop shop activity in the county. Many of those charges are still pending in circuit court.

Life is like a trapeze: there are times you have to let go A trapeze artist can only fly from one trapeze to another by first releasing the bar he is holding on to. This takes a lot of nerve, determination and desire. It is certainly contrary to human nature to let go of something that is secure in exBryan change for the unfamiliar. Golden Life is like the trapeze. There are many circumstances where you Dare to Live Without Limits have to let go of what is known in order to learn, grow, and find additional happiness. Changing jobs, changing careers, getting married, getting divorced, moving, and starting a family are just some examples. Having to let go is a simple concept that is not so easy to put into practice. Each of us has a need for security. For the most part, we would prefer to keep the comfort of what we are used to rather than reach out to grab something new. Actually, the prospect of releasing our grip from that which we think is safe is downright frightening. So how can you condition yourself to let go of what you are hanging on to in order to improve your life? Just like a person learning to use the trapeze, you need to start with something easy and then gradually increase the challenges as you build your confidence. A good place to begin is by identifying all of those things you would like to do but have not yet attempted. List everything you think of without any limitations. Resist the temptation to evaluate your desires; even if you feel something is unrealistic or too difficult, list it anyway. Creating your list accomplishes several things. Putting your aspirations in writing is the first step to bringing them into reality. As you write down your thoughts, they are absorbed into your mind as a real desire. Creating your list makes you fully aware of all of your dreams. Once you have your ideas, you can then prioritize them in two different ways. One list should be arranged in order from least to most important. The other list should be ordered by level of difficulty, from easiest to hardest. This second list is the one you will use to practice letting go. Start with the easiest item. Ignore all of the others for now. Give yourself a specific time limit to complete this task. Don’t be vague. Without a deadline, you won’t take action. If you put it off, you won’t accomplish anything and will find it impossible to make any progress. Once the first task has been completed, move to the item that is next in terms of difficulty. Repeat the same process. Accomplishing the easiest items may not provide much satisfaction, but with each success, your confidence will grow. You will quickly discover that letting go isn’t nearly as arduous as you imagined. Many people who go through this training process are surprised at how their imagined fears had little or no basis in reality. After tackling the first few easy tasks, switch over to the list that has your aspirations arranged by importance. Don’t jump immediately to the most important item. Start with something a few levels below. Again, you will be continuing to boost your confidence. Learning to let go will enable you to achieve more than you thought possible. You will be amazed at the positive impact it will have on your life and level of satisfaction. It’s really easy to begin. Don’t waste any more time. Get started today making your lists and then get to work practicing. (Bryan Golden is a management consultant, motivational speaker, author, and adjunct professor.

The end of Pax Americana? WASHINGTON, D.C. — Observing the correlation of forces in this city and the intensity of conviction in the base of each party, the outcome of the ongoing fiscal fight between Barack Obama and the Tea Party Republicans seems preordained. Deadlock. There will be no big jobs-for-taxes deal. The can will be kicked down the road into the next administration. A second truth is emerging. When the cutting comes, as it shall, the Pentagon will be first to ascend the scaffold. Why so? Consider. The Republican House cannot agree to tax increases without risking retribution from the base and repudiation by its presidential candidates. All have pledged to oppose even a dollar in tax hikes for 10 dollars in spending cuts. For his part, Obama has refused to lay out any significant cuts in the big Democratic entitlement programs of Social Security and Medicare. As for the hundreds of billions in Great Society spending for Medicaid, food stamps, Head Start, earned income tax credits, aid to education, Pell grants and housing subsidies, neither Harry Reid’s Senate nor Obama, in trouble with his African-American base, will permit significant cuts. That leaves two large items of a budget approaching $4 trillion: interest on the debt, which must be paid, and national defense.
Twenty years ago, hysteria swept through the media over “hunger in America.” Dan Rather opened a CBS Evening News broadcast in 1991 declaring, “one in eight American children is going hungry tonight.” Newsweek, the Associated Press and the Boston Globe repeated this statistic, and many others joined the media chorus, with or without that unsubstantiated statistic. When the Centers for Disease Control and the Department of Agriculture examined people from a variety of income levels, however, they found no evidence of malnutrition among those in the lowest income brackets. Nor was there any significant difference in the intake of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients from one income level to another. That should have been the end of that hysteria. But the same “hunger in America” theme reappeared years later, when Senator John Edwards was running for vice president. And others have resurrected that same claim, right up to the present day. Ironically, the one demonstrable nutritional difference between the poor and others is that low-in-

the Bush as well as Obama administrations, we are facing unavoidable and painful choices. We are going to have to reduce the benefits and raise the age of eligibility for Social Security and Medicare. Cut and cap Great Society programs. Downsize the military, close bases and transfer to allies responsibility for their own defense. Or we are going to have to raise taxes -- and not just on millionaires and billionaires, but Middle America. And if our leaders cannot impose these sacrifices, the markets will, as we see in Europe, where the day of reckoning is at hand. Ours is next. But if defense cuts are unavoidable, where should they come? What should our future defense posture be? Which principles should apply? Clearly, the first principle should be that the United States must retain a sufficiency, indeed, a surplus of power to defend all of its vital interests and vital allies, though the defense of those allies must be first and foremost their own responsibility. They have to replace U.S. troops as first responders. During the Cold War, America was committed to go to war on behalf of a dozen NATO nations from Norway to Turkey. Eastern Europe under Moscow’s boot was not considered vital. Thus we resisted the Berlin Blockade, but peacefully. We did nothing to rescue the Hungarian revolution in 1956, or the Prague Spring
in 1968, or the Polish Solidarity movement in 1981, when all three were crushed. Now that the Red Army has gone home, Eastern Europe is free, and the Soviet Union no longer exists, what is the argument for maintaining U.S. Air Force, Army and naval bases and thousands of U.S. troops in Europe? Close the bases, and bring the troops home. The same with South Korea and Japan. Now that Mao is dead and gone and China is capitalist, Seoul and Tokyo trade more with Beijing than they do with us. South Korea has 40 times the economy and twice the population of North Korea. Japan’s economy is almost as large as China’s. Why cannot these two powerful and prosperous nations provide the troops, planes, ships and missiles to defend themselves? We can sell them whatever they need. Why is their defense still our responsibility? In the Persian Gulf we have a strategic interest: oil. But the oil-rich nations of the region have an even greater interest in selling their oil than we do in buying it. For, without oil sales, the Gulf has little the world needs or wants. Let the world look out for itself for a while. Time to start looking out for America and Americans first. For if we don’t, who will?

‘Hunger in America’ hoax exposed

Pentagon chief Leon Panetta can see the writing on the wall. Defense Pat is already Buchanan s c h e d u l e d for $350 bilColumnist lion in cuts over the decade. If the super-committee fails to come up with $1.2 trillion in specified new cuts, an automatic slicer chops another $600 billion from defense. House Armed Services Committee Chair Buck McKeon has issued an analysis of what that would mean: a U.S. Army and Marine Corps reduction of 150,000 troops, retirement of two carrier battle groups, loss of one-third of Air Force fighter planes and a “hollow force” unable to meet America’s commitments. Also on the chopping block would be the Navy and Marine Corps versions of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. If the super-committee trigger has to be pulled, says Panetta, “we’d be shooting ourselves in the head.” That half defense-half domestic formula for automatic budget cuts was programmed into the slicer to force Republicans to put tax hikes on the table. They will refuse. For tax hikes would do more damage to the party than the slicing would the Pentagon. Thus America approaches her moment of truth. Thanks to the irresponsibility of both parties, of

come women tend to be overweight more often than others. That may not seem Thomas like much to Sowell make a political issue, Hoover but politiInstitution cians and the media have created hysteria over less. The political left has turned obesity among lowincome individuals into an argument that low-income people cannot afford nutritious food, and so have to resort to burgers and fries, pizzas and the like, which are more fattening and less healthful. But this attempt to salvage something from the “hunger in America” hoax collapses like a house of cards when you stop and think about it. Burgers, pizzas and the like cost more than food that you can buy at a store and cook yourself. If you can afford junk food, you can certainly afford healthier food. An article in the New York Times of Sept. 25th by Mark Bittman showed that you can cook a meal for four at half the cost of a meal from a burger restaurant. So far, so good. But then Mr. Bittman says that the problem is “to get
people to see cooking as a joy.” For this, he says, “we need action both cultural and political.” In other words, the nanny state to the rescue! Since when are adult human beings supposed to do only those things that are a joy? I don’t find any particular joy in putting on my shoes. But I do it rather than go barefoot. I don’t always find it a joy to drive a car, especially in bad weather, but I have to get from here to there. An arrogant elite’s condescension toward the people -- treating them as children who have to be jollied along -- is one of the poisonous problems of our time. It is at the heart of the nanny state and the promotion of a debilitating dependency that wins votes for politicians while weakening a society. Those who see social problems as requiring highminded people like themselves to come down from their Olympian heights to impose their superior wisdom on the rest of us, down in the valley, are behind such things as the hunger hoax, which is part of the larger poverty hoax. We have now reached the point where the great majority of the people living below the official poverty level have such things

as air-conditioning, microwave ovens, either videocassette recorders or DVD players, and own either a car or a truck. Why are such people called “poor”? Because they meet the arbitrary criteria established by Washington bureaucrats. Depending on what criteria are used, you can have as much official poverty as you want, regardless of whether it bears any relationship to reality. Those who believe in an expansive, nanny state government need a large number of people in “poverty” to justify their programs. They also need a large number of people dependent on government to provide the votes needed to keep the big nanny state going. Politicians, welfare state bureaucrats and others have incentives to create or perpetuate hoaxes, whether about poverty in general or hunger in particular. The high cost to taxpayers is exceeded by the even higher cost of lost opportunities for fulfillment in their lives by those who succumb to the lure of a stagnant life of dependency.

Flaggs wants info from PERS study Associated Press
JACKSON — A top Mississippi lawmaker said Friday that budget writers deserve to hear directly from the leader of a governor’s commission that’s studying the Public Employees Retirement System. House Banking Committee Chairman George Flaggs, D-Vicksburg, said he’s considering issuing a subpoena for Gulfport Mayor George Schloegel, the man appointed by Republican Gov. Haley Barbour to study PERS. Flaggs said he wants to know whether the commission might recommend changing or eliminating annual cost-of-living payments. The payments are known as the “13th check” because many retirees take the money as a lump-sum payment at the end of each year.
The commission appointed by Barbour cannot change PERS, only make recommendations. Any changes would have to be approved by lawmakers, most of whom are seeking re-election this year. Many are receiving calls from public employees who are worried about losing money in their retirement plan. Schloegel could not immediately be reached for comment late Friday. During budget hearings in September, the 14-member Joint Legislative Budget Committee adopted a resolution saying it opposes any changes to the 13th check. Several members also said they wanted to call Schloegel before the committee to question him about the study commission’s intentions. “He needs to tell the public whether or not they
intend to mess with the 13th check,” Flaggs told The Associated Press on Friday. Republican Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant, who is running for governor and is current chairman of the Budget Committee, sent Flaggs a letter this week saying he talked to Barbour about some members’ requests to call Schloegel before the committee. “As I understand it, Governor Barbour believes that it would be inappropriate for Mr. Schloegel to meet with the Budget Committee because Mr. Schloegel is not a state employee, the Commission is not a state agency, state funds are not being used to pay for the activities of the Commission and the Commission’s report will only be recommendations,” Bryant wrote.
Long-term
Wife Insurance
Barbour spokeswoman Laura Hipp said Bryant’s letter accurately represents Barbour’s views. “The PERS Study Commission is in the early stages of its analysis, meaning Chairman Schloegel does not have any finalized data to present to the Joint Legislative Budget Committee,” Hipp said. “The final report will be presented to all members of the Legislature in mid-November. These will be recommendations for the Legislature and the next governor to consider to protect the long-term solvency of the retirement system.” Legislative committee chairmen have the power to subpoena people to appear and discuss issues that affect public policy. Flaggs said he has talked to a legislative draftsman about preparing a subpoena for Schloegel to appear before the Banking Committee. Flaggs, who serves on the Budget Committee, said he’ll try again to persuade Bryant to call Schloegel before the Budget Committee.

Family of shooter expresses sympathy CUPERTINO, Calif. — The family of the man who shot and killed three colleagues at a Silicon Valley cement plant and wounded six others said Saturday they are shocked and have no explanation for why the shooting happened. In a statement, Shareef Allman’s family called the incident a “horrific tragedy” and expressed their condolences to the victims and their families. They said the Allman they knew was a loving father and good man. “There are no words that can express how very sorry we are, or how badly we feel,” the statement read. It was released by Tony Williams, pastor of the Maranatha Christian Center in San Jose. Williams said Allman visited the church, and his family asked that Williams serve as a spokesman. He said the family members did not wish to be identified. Allman had a son and daughter. He was shot dead by sheriff’s deputies Thursday, a day after the shooting at Lehigh Southwest Cement plant, where he worked as a truck driver.

Plane ditches in ocean off Hawaii Associated Press
HILO, Hawaii — A small plane ran out of fuel and was ditched in the ocean several miles off Hawaii’s coast, but the pilot was rescued by Coast Guard crews who had flown alongside and coached him on crash landing in the choppy seas. Dramatic video released by the Coast Guard shows the plane gliding low over the water and then splash-
ing down. Within seconds the pilot climbs out onto a wing as a helicopter lowers a rescue swimmer, who helps him enter a basket and is hoisted to the hovering aircraft. The 65-year-old man, who was not seriously injured, was flying solo from Monterey, Calif., when he radioed authorities Friday afternoon that he was running low on fuel about 500 miles from his destination of Hilo, Hawaii, the Coast Guard
said. The cities are about 2,300 miles apart. The Guard sent a plane to rendezvous with the two-engine Cessna and dispatched a ship and helicopter to be ready for a possible rescue, spokesman Lt. Gene Maestas told The Associated Press. After meeting up with the plane over the Pacific, the Guard’s HC-130 Hercules flew alongside for more than an hour, until the aircraft’s fuel gave out and it went down 13 miles
off Hawaii. “We were communicating to him the entire time,” Maestas told The Associated Press. “The pilots were telling him how to make the airplane ready ... to lighten, tie things down, adjust the seat.” He was also urged to go in at a low angle to the water and touch down parallel to the waves — running at strong six feet — rather than absorbing their power by plowing
into them head-first. “We basically talked him down,” Maestas said. The pilot, whom the Coast Guard did not identify, ditched his airplane about an hour before sundown. In the two-minute video apparently shot from another Coast Guard aircraft, the plane skims lightly on the water for a few seconds before coming to an abrupt stop and spinning around in the foaming seas.
Statistics suggest baby unlikely taken by stranger Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Decades of statistics on infant abductions in the U.S. suggest one of the least likely scenarios in this week’s disappearance of a Kansas City baby is that a stranger broke into her home and took the child as her family slept.
But the numbers also lead national experts to believe that if 10-month-old Lisa Irwin were snatched from her crib in the middle of the night, as her parents told investigators, she is likely still alive. Strangers who kidnap infants or young children, though rare, often do so
because they want a child of their own, not because they intend to hurt or kill the child, said David Finkelhor, director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center at the University of New Hampshire. “The recovery rate for infants is very, very high. There is real hope here,”
added Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Arlington, Va. But the experts acknowledge that investigators often focus on close relatives when a baby goes missing, in part because statistics show that far more infants and young children are
killed by a parent than a stranger. “Suspicion almost always falls heavily on the parents, especially when it’s young kids,” Finkelhor said. “Fifteen hundred parents kill their kids every year, and that’s heavily focused on the under 1 year of age category.”
California marks century since reform SACRAMENTO, Calif.— It was 100 years ago this week that California voters adopted the initiative, recall and referendum amid an era of ingrained political corruption. They set in motion a series of reforms that would define California’s political landscape for the next century. Since then, the state that has seen pitched battles at the ballot box over property tax reforms, gay marriage, illegal immigration and recalling a governor. The initiative process has become as quintessentially California as sunshine and opportunity, even if it has left a legacy of unintended consequences. The state’s new governor, Hiram Johnson, put direct democracy on the ballot on Oct. 10, 1911, and voters approved the most expansive initiative and recall powers in the nation. One proposition gave women the right to vote.
Vessel shines light on illegal fishing JUNEAU, Alaska — The recent seizure of a stateless ship in international waters, 2,600 miles off Alaska’s coast, has shed a spotlight on the challenge that the U.S. and other nations face in trying to crackdown on illegal fishing. Estimates suggest that illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, also known as IUU, accounts for up to $23.5 billion a year in economic losses globally. But finding rogue vessels can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. U.S. officials and some environmentalists say progress is being made, with multinational patrol and enforcement agreements and the potential for trade sanctions against countries that engage in illegal fishing.

Corinth sweeps Houston Staff Reports
The Corinth Lady Warriors beat Houston twice Saturday night to advance to the North Half finals of the Class 4A Slow-Pitch Softball State Tournament. “I’m proud of the way they played,” said Corinth Head Coach Janna LaBarreare. “In the first game it took us a little bit to get settled. When we started hitting the ball it made our defense better.” Corinth won 10-6 in Game One and completed the sweep with a 23-7 decision in Game Two. The Lady Warriors (24-7) will face 1-4A rival Tishomingo County, which defeated Louisville, on Tuesday at the Sports Plex. The Lady Warriors got two homers in Game One from Erin Frazier in her first two at-bats. Frazier was intentionally walked every appear-
ance after that until the top of the fifth in Game Two. Corinth’s Stennett Smith hit the convincing grand slam in the top of the fifth of Game Two to put Houston away. • At Mooreville, Kossuth run-ruled the host club in the third and deciding game to advance to the Class 3A North Half championship Kossuth (20-10) will host the Nettleton-South Pontotoc winner on Tuesday. The Lady Aggies opened the one-day, best-of-three series with an 8-2 win. Kristen Devers and Shelby Stewart had three hits each as the Lady Aggies banged out 17 safeties. Devers and Jordan Dickson each went deep in the opener. Mooreville bounced back to force a third game be-
hind a 16-7 victory. Kossuth led 5-2 after five before the Lady Troopers exploded for 14 runs over their final three at-bats. In Game Three, Kossuth scored the first four runs and never looked back in claiming the second-round series with a decisive 15-5 win in five innings. KHS banged out 21 hits with seven players recording multiple knocks. Devers went 4-for-4 in the contest and added another long ball. Stewart and McKenzie Holland had three hits each.

Russell leads Mississippi St. past UAB The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Mississippi State Bulldogs avoided the controversy that would have ensued had they lost to winless Alabama-Birmingham. But in the process, they might have created a quarterback controversy.
Backup quarterback Tyler Russell replaced an ineffective Chris Relf to start the second half and threw three touchdowns to help Mississippi State overcome a 3-0 halftime deficit and defeat UAB 21-3 on Saturday. With Relf at quarterback,
the Bulldogs (3-3) had 118 yards in total offense in the first half and punted five times. After the change was made to Russell, who had played in only two of the first five games this season, MSU gained 298 yards and punted only once.
“It wasn’t that Chris was playing poorly. I just felt we needed a spark,” MSU coach Dan Mullen said. “I guess putting Tyler in was the best thing I could do to try to create a spark. He came in and played exceptionally well. He had a lot of energy.”

Jeremy Hester rushed for 118 yards and a score and Tracy Lampley ran for two touchdowns for the Golden Eagles (5-1), who have tallied at least 30 points a game during their winning streak. Davis completed 21 of 23 passes and added 75 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries. Navy (2-3) lost a third consecutive game for the first time in four seasons under coach Ken Niumatalolo, surrendering a season high in points. The Midshipmen played without fullback Alexander Teich, their leading rusher, who was held out of the game by Niumatalolo for disciplinary reasons. Navy’s Delvin Diggs ran for two touchdowns, and quarterback Kriss Proctor added 123 rushing yards. It was the most points allowed by Navy since a 65-19 home loss to N.C. State on Sept. 7, 2002. The Midshipmen amassed 416 rushing yards, but paid for squandering early scoring opportunities. Navy drove to the Golden Eagles’ 7-yard line on the game’s opening drive, but Southern Mississippi’s Khyri Thornton blocked Jon Teague’s 29-yard field goal try and Marquese Wheaton scooped up the loose ball, returning it 79 yards for a touchdown.

Jordan Jefferson used a jump pass to Mitch Joseph for another score. LSU’s fast, fierce defense was too much for Florida (42, 2-2), which started freshman Jacoby Brissett at quarterback because of injuries to senior John Brantley and freshman Jeff Driskel.

Raiders mourn Davis BY JOSH DUBOW Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. — Al Davis was remembered Saturday as the AFL commissioner who helped lead the merger with the NFL that changed professional football forever. He was praised as the trendsetting owner of the Oakland Raiders, who broke racial and gender barriers while winning three Super Bowl titles and preaching his mantra of “Just win, baby!” Davis died at age 82, still called “Coach” by many of those around him. Coach Hue Jackson always used that respected title whenever he talked about Davis, saying there was no other owner in the NFL who could talk the intricacies of the game as well as “Coach Davis.” He died Saturday at his home in Oakland, while his beloved team was in Houston preparing to play the Texans. That Davis was not with his team was telling as he is believed to have missed only three games since joining the team as coach in 1963. He did not appear at a single training camp practice this summer and missed a game in Buffalo last month. “As he became older, he developed some health problems, and he just couldn’t be out there each and every practice, like he used to be. That’s too bad. But we all age, and things change,” said Jim Plunkett, who won two Super Bowl titles after Davis revived his career by bringing him to Oakland. “But he never lost his love and his fire for the game. Just sitting in the box with him, even though he couldn’t speak loudly, this year, he’d get his point across, telling everyone that they shouldn’t have done this or they should’ve done that. He wasn’t yelling anymore. But he was still into it.” Davis did attend Oakland’s home game last week against New England, and Plunkett said he had a smile on his face when the Raiders led early. Oakland lost that game 31-19 to fall to 2-2, but this year’s edition of the Raiders appears to be the best the team has had since losing the Super Bowl following the 2002 season. “I sit in his box for every home game,” Plunkett said. “I’ve gleaned so much from him. He talks about philosophies and how the game has changed, what each individual player means to a team, what they can do. An offense will huddle and come up to the line of scrimmage and right away, he can tell you what the next play is probably going to be, because he studies film so much. It was a joy being in that box. I learned so much from him, even after football.”

Tigers’ Young out of AL championship series The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas — Delmon Young’s bat will be silent during the AL championship series. If the Detroit Tigers can get to the World Series without him, they might get back the slugger who hit three homers in the AL division series. Young is out of the AL championship series against the Texas Rangers because of an oblique injury. He reaggravated an earlier ailment against the New York Yankees and the Tigers left him off their roster for the best-of-seven series that began Saturday night. Manager Jim Leyland said that even though an MRI “doesn’t show anything real sig-
nificant,” the Tigers were taking no chances with Young. “I learned a long time ago when the word oblique is mentioned, I get nervous. ... I’ve never seen an oblique all right in a day or two. It’s never happened as long as I’ve been managing,” Leyland said. “We might have kept him on hoping for maybe Game 4 or 5 or something. But what happens is all of a sudden you used him and he couldn’t go and you had to take him off, then he’s not available for the next series,” he said. “This way, not having him on the roster at the beginning of this series, if he would be ready and if we were fortunate to move on, he could be activated for the World Se-
ries.” Leyland said Young stiffened up after swinging during batting practice Friday. Infielder Danny Worth took Young’s spot on the roster while Ryan Raburn started in left field. Leyland also shuffled his batting order without his regular No. 3 hitter. Young’s injury was described as a mild strain when he left Game 5 of the AL division series against the Yankees on Thursday night. The injury for Young is on the left side of his abdomen. He missed 19 games with the same injury earlier this season while with Minnesota. “With Delmon out, it changes things,” Leyland said. “It obvious-
ly hurts a little bit, because he’s a right-handed hitter and we’re going to see three left-handed pitchers plus they have good lefthanded stuff in the bullpen.” Young hit .274 with eight homers and 32 RBIs in 40 games for Detroit after being acquired from Minnesota in August. Over five games against the Yankees, the Tigers’ regular No. 3 hitter was 6 for 19. He was the first player in franchise history with three homers in a single postseason series. Though Young didn’t think the problem was too serious when it flared up while taking a swing Thursday night, he realized when he went out to the outfield to warm up for the next inning that he couldn’t throw.

Time to get in shape for hunting seasons As bad as I hate to admit it, the words my mother spoke the other day rang true. She said, “Son, you’re getting older and you’re not going to be able to go and do as you’ve done in the past.” Defiantly, I know what she was saying. The grimacing aches and pains felt after a long, hard day’s work or a full day spent afield in the outdoors reminds me wholeheartedly that if I’m going to continue doing the things I enjoy, I’m going to have to work harder at staying physically fit. And I guess that’s just the way it is once you’ve
passed t h e invincible years o f your youth. In order to keep David Green going, you’ve got tot stay active in a constructive way. By constructive, I’m talking about a type of exercise that will be beneficial in building stamina so you will be able to stay focused and spend an enjoyable day afield
But regardless of whether the exercise is scouting, working out in a weight room, jogging or whatever, start out with moderation in the amount of activity and go slowly. That is, if you don’t want to be sore for days on end. for its entirety. Working in a stressful environment where lots of heavy lifting and straining is required does not fit the description, and actually, that seems to do more harm than good, especially for

people already having trouble with their joints. I’m not a gym rat, nor will I ever be. It does fit the bill as good exercise, but to get in shape, I’d rather to do something I enjoy doing. The way I see it, deer scouting is as good an exercise as a person can get. Walking up and down hills, across creeks and through uneven terrain works all the muscles, plus gives a fixation on where and when to hunt
at certain times. But regardless of whether the exercise is scouting, working out in a weight room, jogging or whatever, start out with moderation in the amount of activity and go slowly. That is, if you don’t want to be sore for days on end. Then, on each following workout, gradually increase the length and intensity of the sessions. Over time, this will greatly improve endurance and better over-all conditioning. More strength and better conditioning makes it easier for a hunter to stay alert while on a hunt. If a hunter is moving along at a snail’s pace trying to still-hunt white-tails, he has a better chance of busting the buck instead of the deer busting him. Also, if he’s in shape, a hunter won’t tire as easily

and can stay focused longer while hunting from a stand without becoming all sleepy eyed. Going to sleep while hunting from an elevated position especially if the hunter is not wearing a safety harness is a recipe for disaster. You sure don’t want to go there. Horror stories about hunters falling from treestands happen every year all across the country. Getting in shape for the fall hunting seasons can be a life-saver in another way. People who are less active (couch potatoes) are much more likely to incur a coronary issue while deer hunting than someone who has been working out. I’ve heard many stories in the past about hunters having heart attacks while over exerting themselves during the excitement of trying to drag their downed deer out of the woods. The fall hunting seasons have already begun, but there’s still plenty of time to get in shape before the bulk of the seasons arrive. And now, with cooler weather filtering in, is as good a time as any to start. Not only will it make you a better hunter, but it could save your life.

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Cash is king when it comes to credit card rewards these days. More banks are venturing where once only Discover tread, by offering credit cards with cash back as a reward. The trend reflects fierce competition for customers with high credit scores, and an effort by banks to push existing customers back to using credit cards instead of debit cards in the face of new regulations. The new cash-back cards often come with complex formulas that tier how much customers can earn, based on specif-
ic types of spending. For example, a card recently introduced by Bank of America Corp. offers 1 percent cash back on most spending, 2 percent on groceries and 3 percent on gas purchases. A card Chase offers rewards customers with 5 percent back on up to $1,500 spent in certain rotating categories; such as at home improvement and lawn and garden stores in the spring and with airlines and hotels during the summer. There are also incentives for using these cards as much as possible. Capital One Financial Corp. launched a cash back MasterCard in August
that offers a one-time $100 bonus for customers who spend $500 in the first three months, plus an extra 50 percent of the total cash theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve received in the prior year on the anniversary of opening the account. Offers with sweetened rewards programs have been popping up throughout the year, said Bill Hardekopf, CEO of the card comparison site LowCards.com. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just cash back, he said, noting a number of cards that enable users to earn rewards like enhanced airline miles. Market research firm Mintel Compermedia found earlier this year

that 23 percent of mailed credit card offers included some kind of extra incentive â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like a $300 cash bonus or 100,000 bonus miles. But the banks arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t targeting everyone with these offers. Cash back rewards, especially the cards with the richest programs like the recent Capital One card, are available mainly to those with excellent credit histories. That usually translates to a credit score of 700 or above on the FICO scale of 300 to 850. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about 53.2 percent of the population with an active credit file, according to data published by FICO last month.

Seoul, New York City form partnership to boost tourism BY CRISTIAN SALAZAR Associated Press
NEW YORK — New York City’s got Seoul. Seeing potential in attracting more travelers from Asia, the city’s tourism agency announced a partnership Monday with the government of the South Korean capital to spark more cultural and recreational visits between the two metropolises. The partnership also was announced at a news conference at Seoul City Hall. As part of the agreement, an advertising campaign will appear in the entertainment and shopping districts of both cities. More than 130 posters in Seoul will promote travel to New York City; 70 posters in the city will
encourage New Yorkers to visit Seoul. Digital ads for Seoul also will appear in Times Square. In addition, Korean Air is offering a discount on flights between Seoul and New York City for a limited time. The airfare, starting at $1,295 for Seoul-bound flights, must be purchased by Oct. 31 for travel between Nov. 1, 2011, and March 31, 2012. The period includes major winter holidays, as well as the Lunar New Year. George Fertitta, chief executive of NYC & Company, said the two cities have much in common. “Both are global leaders of business, innovation, design and style,” he said in prepared remarks. “Both are pop culture capitals.”
LOS ANGELES — They come in slippery, tonguetwisting names such as “spandauer,” “hyldeblomst sorbet” and “gelehallon.” And they are spreading across America. They are the sweets of Scandinavia, treats once relegated mostly to the Midwest, where Norwegians and Swedes have settled for generations. But in recent years stores specializing in the confections have increasingly shown up in urban areas, such as Los Angeles and New York City, ushering in a growing curiosity among foodies. These stores represent the exotic new kid on the block in places long dominated by Chinese, Italian, Japanese, Mexican, Thai and Indian foods. “My thing, when I opened, was that everybody here knows what a ‘Danish’ is, quote, unquote, but they don’t really know what a real one is,” said Copenhagenborn Rasmus “Ray” Lee, 41, co-owner of 2-yearold Hygge (pronounced “hyoo-geh”), believed to be the first Danish bakery to open in Los Angeles. “A real one has marzipan in it. It’s got custard,” he said. “Normally, a ‘Danish’ here is very heavy and kind of glutinous. The flour we use is local flour, lighter.” What Americans call “Danishes,” Scandinavians call “wienerbrod” (“vee-nuh-bro”), which means “Vienna bread,” since the pastry style has Austrian roots. “Hygge” is a concept central to all Scandinavian cultures: a focus on relaxation and enjoyment, also related to eating and food. Scandinavians, when asked why sweets are so
popular in their part of the world, may chalk it up to needing comfort through long, cold winters. But they also have an appreciation for whole, natural ingredients and smaller portions. Ice-cream is made from fresh fruit, and candy is sculpted out of real sugar instead of corn syrup. It’s common for people to munch on sweets with almost every meal. Lee wanted to create what he’s always loved in Denmark. When he moved to the US, he couldn’t find worthy pastries or cakes, he said. Visiting his family, he used to go straight from the Copenhagen airport to a bakery. In Scandinavian countries, he also noted, an active lifestyle offsets an active sweet tooth. “Also, this stuff isn’t too fattening,” said Lee. “It’s low gluten, low cholesterol.” At Hygge, a large glass display case boasts dozens of pastries ranging from kringle bars — square and crisp, also popular in Norway — to round vanilla-, raspberryand apple-filled spandauer (“span-dow-uh”). The pastries are made from a combination of dough and softened margarine which then is flattened and folded into 27 thin layers, frozen overnight, then steamed, shaped and baked. Hygge sells several hundred pastries a week, said Lee, who plans to open satellite shops. In Manhattan’s West Village, 6-month-old Scandinavian bulk candy store Sockerbit Sweet & Swedish carries 140 different types of colorful candy and chocolate in bins contrasted by sleek white walls. Offerings include classic Swed-
Chokladbol
No Scandinavian treats available near you? Make your own with this simple, no-cook recipe. Makes 3 dozen balls Start to finish: 1 hour 10 minutes (10 minutes active) 3 1/2 cups quick oats 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 10 tablespoons butter, room temperature 1/2 cup cold coffee Shredded coconut, for rolling In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the oats, sugar and cocoa powder just to combine. Add the vanilla and butter and pulse again, just to mix. Add the coffee and pulse just until the mixture has come together. Remove the blade and give the mixture a little stir to ensure everything is evenly distributed. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Place the coconut in a shallow dish, such as a pie tin. Roll the chocolate-oat mixture into 1 1/4-inch balls, then roll each in the coconut. Refrigerate in an airtight container. Nutrition information per ball (values are rounded to the nearest whole number): 90 calories; 40 calories from fat (44 percent of total calories); 5 g fat (3 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 10 mg cholesterol; 11 g carbohydrate; 2 g protein; 1 g fiber; 5 mg sodium. (Recipe by Alison Ladman) ish raspberry gelatin bits dusted with sugar, called gelehallon, and banana marshmallow dipped in chocolate. Everything comes from factories in Sweden, Denmark and Finland, said co-owner Stefan Ernberg, 36. He plans to open more stores, including in Los Angeles. As for why Scandinavian sweets stores have just started to reach out to coastal urban centers, Lee has one theory, citing
“Jante law,” a Scandinavian concept of self-deprecation and modesty. “Danish stuff should be all over the world. Thai food, pizza, is all over the world,” said Lee. “But you have to be ‘Jante law.’ You’re not supposed to stick out. You’re supposed to blend in. You can’t be too ambitious, or people start ridiculing you. People have very high skills, but they’re not allowed, culturally, to admit it.”

Stars align with breast cancer stories in ‘Five’ BY SANDY COHEN Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The assignment was a daunting one: Make a TV special that presents five short dramas about breast cancer and isn’t a total downer. Jennifer Aniston couldn’t resist the challenge. The 42-year-old actress had already decided to devote a year to producing and directing when she learned about “Five.” Just over a year later, the film is set to premiere Monday on Lifetime, and Aniston is pinching herself over the whole thing. “It was a very nerve-wracking thing to think OK, we’re going to tell five short stories about breast cancer that are poignant, that are informative, that are moving and that are funny somehow,” she said. “Five” stars Patricia Clarkson, Rosario Dawson, Tony Shalhoub, Jeffrey Tambor and Jeanne Tripplehorn, among others, and features an equally all-star roster of directors that includes Aniston, Demi Moore and Alicia Keys in her directorial debut. Aniston said she was “way more involved in this than any other thing I had my name on” and is beyond delighted with the results.
“I’m proud of it. I’m honored that we were able to be such a part of it and I just can’t wait for people to see it,” she said. “Making a film that’s special is wonderful, but when it’s actually dealing with a cause and dealing with something that attention needs to be paid to, that’s just something that fills you in such a way that it’s indescribable.” After signing on as executive producers, the first order of business for Aniston and her production partner was to come up with the various stories and a format for telling them. Aniston called up “Friends” co-creator Marta Kauffman, who conceived of a story arc comprising five short films, each focusing on one woman facing a breast cancer diagnosis. “I call it a film in five films,” Kauffman said. “I wanted them deeply interconnected and to feel like it was all one.” The result is five standalone fictional films with recurring characters, settings and themes. The multi-story format is ideal for exploring the impact breast cancer has on women, their families and their relationships, Kauffman said, because there are so many stories to tell. “You can’t tell one story and have it reach as many women,
and on the other hand, you don’t want too many because, in many ways, there is a universality to the experience,” she said. “We took different aspects of the experience — what it does to your sexuality, how feeling like you’re going to die helps you live, how it can heal a family — because the bottom line is it’s an experience that women go through, and there needs to be something that holds it together... And it’s always fun to think of a new way to tell stories.” “Five” opens with Moore’s short film, which tells the story of Charlotte (Ginnifer Goodwin) and her young daughter, Pearl. It is 1969, and as the extended family watches the historic moon landing on TV, little Pearl wants to know why her mother is lying alone in bed and her father is smoking nonstop on the porch. The second film, directed by Aniston, shows Pearl (Tripplehorn) has grown up to become an oncologist. One of her patients is Mia (Clarkson), whose breast cancer diagnosis two years earlier inspired her to spend all her money, give away all her belongings and hold a mock funeral. Then she learns her disease is in remission. “I just loved the idea of this
woman being told that she has a death sentence and she finally decides to start living her life because she’s been given a death sentence, and then she’s given another chance,” Aniston said. “The theme of it just really spoke to me, about living in the moment and just being aware, and also hope about how things can change.” Pearl is also treating Lili (Dawson), a high-powered professional reluctant to compromise her independence and let her family support her through her cancer treatment. Keys, who directed the installment, said she was drawn to Lili’s story because “she was more in my age range. I understood her dynamic and I understood her being a strong woman who has to carry everything on her shoulders.” The musician said she “fell in love with the entire process of directing” and plans to do it again, citing Barbra Streisand among her inspirations. The fourth film is about Cheyanne (Lyndsy Fonseca), a 26-year-old exotic dancer whose livelihood and marriage are threatened by her breast cancer diagnosis and resulting double mastectomy. Veteran filmmaker Penelope
Spheeris directed the piece, and she said “it was the best shooting experience, filming experience, I have ever had.” “I had never worked on a show where all the people in control were women,” she said. “Everybody was doing it for the right reasons and egos weren’t getting in the way.” “Monster” writer-director Patty Jenkins closes “Five” with the story of Pearl’s own diagnosis. “To sum up the whole thing and try to punctuate it is something that I always love to do,” Jenkins said. The final film shows the oncologist becoming the patient and eventually joining the survivors, which include her previous patients Mia, Lili and Cheyanne. Aniston called the film “a beautiful study” and hopes it finds an audience beyond typical Lifetime viewers. “I think kids should watch it, husbands, boyfriends, everybody,” she said. “And what you want them to take away from it is information, hope, inspiration, having been entertained and having that moment of going, ‘Oh God, I’ve got to go get this test. Today.’ What are we waiting for?”
Stars must align to win a place on Hollywood Walk of Fame BY GLENN WHIPP For The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Engelbert Humperdink has one. Clint Eastwood does not. John, George and Ringo — yes. Paul McCartney? Not yet. And George Clooney would be in the club if only someone could convince him to show up for the ceremony. When it comes to receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the sidewalk tourist attraction that encompasses 15
blocks of Hollywood Boulevard and three blocks of intersecting Vine Street, it’s not so much who you know, but whether you’re willing to play by the rules. For starters, someone in the celebrity’s camp must first fill out an application form that includes the star’s signed promise that they will attend the ceremony. No pledge? No ceremony. Which is why Eastwood, Julia Roberts and Clooney aren’t among the
2,450 honorees lining Hollywood’s sidewalks. A five-member committee meets annually in June to consider some 250 to 300 applicants from five categories of the entertainment industry — film, television, music, broadcast radio and theater, a category added in 1984. As you might imagine, some of the candidates possess light resumes. Others wouldn’t be able to show up for obvious reasons. “We’ve had applications
Horoscopes Sunday, October 9 BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Creator’s Syndicate
The moon is void of course in Pisces. The Pisces moon is a rather ethereal aspect already, and the lackadaisical conviction implied by its void-of-course status only adds to the spacey feeling of the day. It’s a time to let your mind wander. If you can’t seem to make reallife connections come together, try to connect with people in your dreams. ARIES (March 21-April 19). At first, you will have a rather straightforward reason for getting to know someone. The more you learn, however, the less the initial purpose seems to matter. You will be, quite simply, curious to find out more. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You take your responsibilities as an earthling seriously. You will show the love and respect you feel for nature by admiring and caring for the various life forms in your environment. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You would normally be inclined to make a prediction as to what you might accomplish and what will likely unfold as a result. Not now. You lead with a sense of wonder. Who knows where the day will flow? Only time. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The dimensions above you seem to invite you to share their lightness of being to whatever degree possible on this earthly plane. You certainly feel freer, as though life is suddenly fresh. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You approach others with your free-flowing conversation. You also have a terrific sense of when to engage and with whom. Knowing when to retreat will be equally useful.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You realize how futile and silly it is to expect people to think and behave just like you do. Your loved ones adore you, in part because they sense that you truly want them to live fully, though not in any particular way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You see what you create as a part of yourself and therefore bestow a special kind of beauty in all of your work. When you meet with interference, you see it as a fortuitous influence. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Appointments and errands are in store, all in preparation for an upcoming event. While getting everything in order, your mind is abuzz with anticipation. This is going to be fun! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll do your own thing, and you won’t care whether anyone notices. You’re making your own rules now, at least socially speaking. And you’ll cause some excitement in the process. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Everyone changes. You cannot predict exactly how, either. To love someone truly and completely means to love him or her through the inevitable changes of life. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Whatever you concentrate on evolves quickly, taking up greater amounts of space and energy. It’s like you can grow things with the power of your thinking. So definitely concentrate on things you actually want to grow. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You can feel someone psychically tugging at you. This person probably just wants to be closer to you, or perhaps he or she needs something so intangible from you that they don’t even know what it is.

from Santa Claus and the duck that represents an insurance company on commercials,” says Walk of Fame producer Ana Martinez, who attends the voting meeting and decides where the stars are eventually placed on the street. “Somebody insisted Shakespeare should have a star,” Martinez adds. Typically, the Walk’s committee annually selects 20 to 24 new honorees, who must then pay a $30,000 sponsorship
fee. This covers the cost of constructing the threefoot-wide stars as well as the cost of the ceremony. A portion of this money also goes to the Walk’s trust fund for continued maintenance. Of course, the honorees themselves rarely foot the bill. Recipients have five years to schedule their ceremony. Most celebrities time the event to coincide with a promotional opportunity. “Stars like to make it
a big deal,” Hollywood Chamber of Commerce president Leron Gubler says. “That’s the way they are. They get a little more bang for their buck out of it when they time it right.” Thus, September’s star recipients Neil Patrick Harris and Jon Cryer scheduled their ceremonies to coincide with the fall premieres of their longrunning television series, “How I Met Your Mother” and “Two and a Half Men,” respectively.
