Man charged with bank holdup pleads not guilty BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

Corinth aldermen met Wednesday to discuss an upcoming change in the way holiday pay is accumulated for the city’s police and fire department employees. The board passed three amendments which must go before the state attorney general before any real changes are put into effect. “This is a political issue,” said Mayor Tommy Irwin. “We’re going to walk away from here with a vote. Some of us will look like we fought for the fire department and some will look like they fought against the fire department — but that’s not the issue. It’s about money.” The first amendment voted on by the board stated that the current accumulated holiday leave for police and fire department employees will be as leave

“I want to take a look at this whole structure, how we pay people. We’ve got to get some people out of the poverty level, quite honestly.” Mayor Tommy Irwin with pay at the discretion of department heads. At the time an employee ceases employment, the accumulated holidays will be paid at the rate of pay as of Oct. 1, 2011. Aldermen-at-Large Mike Hopkins, Ward 1 Alderman Andrew Labas, Ward 2 Alderman Ben Albarracin and Ward 4 Alderman J.C. Hill voted in favor. Ward 3 Alderman Chip Wood and Ward 5 Alderman Michael McFall voted against. The second amendment stated that new hires in the police department for

holidays will receive eight hours pay and four hours leave for each holiday as of Oct. 1, 2011. New hires in the fire department will get eight hours pay and eight hours leave for each holiday as of Oct. 1, 2011. The board voted unanimously in favor. The third holiday leave amendment was for shift employees at the police and fire departments. It stated that police department shift employees’ holiday leave will be changed to eight hours pay and four hours leave. Fire department shift employees leave

will be changed to 12 hours pay and 12 hours leave. The board was evenly divided on this amendment. Aldermen Labas, Hill and Hopkins voted in favor, and Aldermen Wood, McFall and Albarracin voted against. Mayor Irwin cast the tiebreaking vote in favor after consulting with Fire Chief Rob Price. None of the amendments will go into effect until they are approved by the state attorney general. The board discussed how these and other changes would free up financial assets and possibly pave the way for an increase in salaries for city employees. “I want to take a look at this whole structure, how we pay people,” the mayor said. “We’ve got to get some people out of the poverty level, quite honestly.”

JACKSON, Tenn. — The man charged with robbery of a Selmer bank has waived his right to a detention hearing in the United States District Court in Jackson. Joseph Carnathan, 40, of Mooreville, Miss., has pleaded not guilty to the bank robbery charges. Following this week’s hearing, he was returned to the custody of the U.S. marshals. Carnathan has been accused of robbing SouthBank on Sept. 13, according to the indictment. He was arrested on Sept. 20 by McNairy County Sheriff Guy Buck in Tupelo. He was originally facing a state charge of aggravated robbery, but was later charged on a stronger, federal count of bank robbery. The next court date is now set for 9 a.m. Dec. 2. The presiding judge for this case will be Judge J. Daniel Breen. Carnathan asked for a court-appointed lawyer. A federal public defender was appointed to represent him. Prosecutors are requesting he remain in federal custody until his trial. The case was broken when a Lee County deputy saw Carnathan’s picture on WBBJ-TV as a suspect and alerted authorities where to find Carnathan. When Sheriff Buck interviewed him, he confessed to the robbery and was brought to the McNairy County Jail. Carnathan was later transferred to Jackson by U.S. marshals.

LIGHTHOUSE FOUNDATION TOY STORE Registration for 16th annual Christmas event kicks off Monday BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian. com

Christmas may be just around the corner, but for those families suffering during the ongoing economic downturn the holidays bring worries along with visions of holiday joy. The Lighthouse Foundation is seeking to help those who are struggling provide Christmas presents for their children during its 16th annual Toy Store Christmas program. Registration kicks off Monday and runs throughout the month of November.

“The need just seems to be so huge. It’s bigger than ever before.” Gary Caveness Executive director, Lighthouse Foundation For the last 15 years, the Toy Store has helped those in need by providing assistance in an environment of love and dignity. The Toy Store operates by allowing those being served to come in on the annual Shopping Day and pick out gifts for their children. Those served are welcome to give a small donation if they wish so they can truly feel that they are doing

as much as they can for their families. Foundation Executive Director Gary Caveness said as they prepare for another season, they’re expecting to top the record number of families served through program last year as they continue to see a huge number of people struggling and hurting due to the difficult economy. “The need just seems

to be so huge. It’s bigger than ever before,” he said. The Toy Store program is open to Alcorn County residents only. Registration sessions will be held each Monday, Tuesday and Thursday in November from 9 a.m. to noon at the foundation headquarters on South Johns Street. A pair of evening registration sessions will be held from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday,

“The kids had a lot of fun playing in the hay and deciding what clothes to put on their scarecrows. It was also a chance for the staff to bond with the families.”

Nov. 10 and Thursday, Nov. 28, for those who work during the day and can’t make it to the morning sessions. The foundation will be closed the week of Thanksgiving and no registration sessions will be held during that week.

reinforced at home. “The kids had a lot of fun playing in the hay and deciding what clothes to put on their scarecrows,” said Grice. “It was also a chance for the staff to bond with the families.” Members put together 12 scarecrows and placed them throughout downtown. Caleb Frambo’s basketball referee scarecrow was selected the first place winner. Tameron Patterson’s entry was second and Kristen Herman was third. Trustmark’s Tracy Welch and KimberlyClark’s Grover Hardin had the difficult task of judging the entries. The Boys & Girls Club also awarded monthly awards to members and staff during its Lights on Afterschool event at the Crossroads Museum. Axavius Strickland was selected the Youth of the Month while Herman received the Junior Staff of the Month honor.

Assistant Superintendent Wayne Henry said he believed the next step is focus dropout prevention efforts on younger students — to develop relationships through teachers and advisors to work of developing goals for kids in the seventh and eighth grades and to keep them progressing as they enter high school. Henry said it is important to find a balance between a “stringent and tough” system of education and “keeping kids involved.” “I don’t think we solve problems by making it easier,” Henry said. “We shouldn’t foster false pretenses and hopes that way.”

NEW YORK — George Eberhardt turned 107 last month, and scientists would love to know how he and other older folks like him made it that far. So he’s going to hand over some of his DNA. He’s one of 100 centenarians taking part in a project announced Wednesday that will examine some of the oldest citizens with one of the newest scientific tools: whole-genome sequencing, the deciphering of a person’s complete collection of DNA. Scientists think DNA from very old healthy people could offer clues to how they lived so long. And that could one day lead to medicines to help the rest of us stay disease-free longer. By the time you reach, say, 105, “it’s very hard to get there without some genetic advantages,” says Dr. Thomas Perls, a geriatrics expert at Boston University. Perls is helping find centenarians for the Archon Genomics X Prize competition. The X Prize Foundation, best known for a spaceflight competition, is offering $10 million in prize money to researchers

who decipher the complete DNA code from 100 people older than 100. The contest will be judged on accuracy, completeness and the speed and cost of sequencing. The contest is a relaunch of an older competition with a new focus on centenarians, and it’s the second sequencing project involving the elderly to be announced this month. Genome pioneer J. Craig Venter says the centenarian project is just a first step in revealing the genetic secrets of a long and healthy life. “We need 10,000 genomes, not 100, to start to understand the link between genetics, disease and wellness,” said Venter, who is co-chairing the X Prize contest. The 107-year-old Eberhardt of Chester, N.J., played and taught tennis until he was 94. He said he’s participating in the X Prize project because he’s interested in science and technology. It’s not clear his genes will reveal much. Nobody else in his extended family reached 100, and he thinks only a couple reached 90, he said in a telephone interview.

Protect houseplants from cold weather diseases With colder temperatures around here now during the nighttime hours -- if you haven’t already done so -- you need to bring in some of the plants that have been setting outside this year. As of right now, we’re still relatively warm but it won’t take too long for this weather to give way to sustained cold. I wanted to touch base of some of the things you need to think about whenever you bring your plants inside. Keep in mind when you bring some plants inside it might take them a little while to get acclimated to the inside environment. Some plants will immediately shed their leaves due to the change in environment. Also be aware when the heater is running in the house the plants will dry out faster than normal thereby increasing the need for more water. This goes for plants that might already be in the house as well as those you bring in from the outside. Houseplants (those already inside) can sometimes be tricky to cultivate. Remember, not everyone was born with a green thumb. Houseplants can be attacked by a variety of diseases, fungi and

bacteria. Knowing what to do when these problems arise or Patrick preventPoindexter ing the onset Ag Lines of these problems is the key to growing them successfully. Environmental problems occur when houseplants are subjected to adverse growing conditions. Light, fertility, water and temperature imbalances are most often involved. Yellow, brown or black spots can indicate a fungal or bacterial leaf spot disease. Leaf spots vary in shape and size depending on the organism and type of plant involved. Powdery mildew can also be a problem and presents itself typically as a grayish-white powdery growth on stems and leaves. Viral diseases that affect plants often result in crinkled or curled leaves, or they may cause rings, spots and streaks in the leaves. Viruses are normally moved from diseased to healthy plants by insects. The best way to eliminate a virus problem is to discard

the entire plant or that portion of the plant that is being infected. Fungi that attack houseplants typically will cause browning of the leaves, or as mentioned above, leaf spots. Fungicides will aid in controlling this problem. Overwatering can also be a problem experienced with houseplants, especially during the winter months when heaters are turned on inside the home. Symptoms can include brown leaf tips, delayed growth or root rot which is characterized by the roots becoming brown and soft. A variety of houseplant guides are available to aid in the care of these plants and offer good suggestions on dealing with problems that are commonly encountered. Some things to remember in order to grow houseplants successfully include attention to watering, fertilizing, humidity in the house, adequate sunlight and also the type of soil. (For more information concerning care of houseplants, call Patrick Poindexter, county director at the Alcorn County Extension Service at 662-286-7755 or visit www.msucares. com.)

Prison guard stabbed by inmate MERIDIAN — A guard at the East Mississippi Correctional Facility is recovering from stab wounds after being attacked Tuesday by an inmate. Lauderdale County Sheriff Billy Sollie says the guard, James D. Larkin of Butler, Ala., was recovering at a Meridian hospital. Sollie says Larkin was stabbed in the abdomen and had lacerations to his face. Sollie says inmates were being directed to the showers about 1 a.m. Tuesday when an inmate, Tonnie L. Thomas, reportedly got into a fight with Larkin. He says

Thomas stabbed the guard with a homemade knife after Larkin used pepper spray. Sollie says Thomas is serving the three life sentences from Washington County for murder and arson.

Fire damages foam plant TUPELO — Authorities are investigating what caused Tuesday’s fire at Mt. Vernon Foam. The small factory manufactured cut foam used in furniture making. About a dozen volunteer and fulltime fire departments, including Tupelo and Saltillo, responded to the call

around 11 a.m. The factory is owned by Terry Robbins, whose family has owned the business for more than 40 years. Robbins declined to comment. Belden Volunteer Fire Chief Willie Payne says no one was injured in the fire. He said a couple of people were in the building when the fire started but made it out safely. It is unclear how many people were employed by Mt. Vernon Foam.

Education funds could open doors Mississippi’s application for $50 million in early childhood education funds through the federal Race to the Top Program could open the door to substantially enhanced pre-K education progress statewide through an array of existing programs. The $50 million proposal, with strong input from Cathy Grace, who chairs the governor’s State Early Childhood Advisory Council, was sent to the Department of Education recently, and an answer is expected before the end of 2011. The $50 million request is the maximum allowed in a category of states in which Mississippi is placed. It would be paid over four years, and it cannot be used to start new programs. The proposal, which was developed by the advisory council that consists of educators and professionals in business outside education, plus the governor’s education adviser, is directly responsive to President Barack Obama’s and the Department of Education’s emphases on early childhood learning. Grace said winning the grant would “have a longer impact than just four years. It is an institutional culture change that would occur.” Mississippi is the only state in the South that does not have a state-funded pre-kindergarten, and prospects for winning approval of a statefunded universal program are economically dim, even though it remains a valid choice. Grace also said in an interview with Journal education reporter Chris Kieffer that every licensed child care provider in Mississippi would be required to participate in the Mississippi Child Care Quality Ratings system if the state’s application is successful. That detailed system measures those centers and the quality of education they provide. Participation is currently optional. The ranking system is based on multiple standards, and providers are rated on a scale from 1 to 5. The initiative allowing parents of children in centers with a high-quality rating to participate in a college savings program would tie into the state’s existing MPACT college savings plan, and it could provide matching funds for some low-income participants. Mississippi’s application calls for crosstraining of medical professionals to help them “read” children’s developmental progression and to speak with parents about things they should be doing to help promote development. “It is all coordinated,” Grace said. “It is not programs that will just be hanging out there.” Coordination can strengthen all the existing resources even if they are not all precisely alike. —Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal, Tupelo

Letter to the Editor Recognizing those who deliver life’s essentials To the editor: Let’s be honest — none of us give much thought to the trucks we see rolling down the highway every day. But we owe a great deal to the professional truck drivers who make those deliveries happen -- and we should all take time to extend a thank you for all that hard work. There are 3.2 million truck drivers in the United States, with the industry employing one out of every 14 people in the State of Mississippi. But the impact of trucking reaches far beyond simple employment figures. Trucking is responsible for nearly 68 percent of the total U.S.freight tonnage and over 80 percent of communities rely solely on the trucking industry for their goods and commodities. At dinner tonight, look around and you’ll realize what this means: The table you set, the plates you use, even the food you eat; they were all delivered by a professional truck driver. If you own it, consume it or use it, it’s been on a truck. So in recognition of the recent National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, and from this date forward, let the men and women driving those trucks down the highway know it’s appreciated. They’re on the road every day, delivering life’s essentials. David Roberts, president Mississippi Trucking Association Jackson

Prayer for today Dear Jesus, thank you for the price you paid for our salvation and for the many blessings we receive because of your love. Amen.

Hood appears to have weathered campaign STARKVILLE — Mississippi Republicans have a challenger to Democratic Attorney General Jim Hood in the 2011 election in former Public Safety Commissioner Steve Simpson, but the race simply hasn’t evolved in the manner that many in the GOP had hoped. Simpson’s two-fold strategy to unseat Hood has first been to nationalize the race over the health care reform law legal challenge -- which Barbour requested Hood pursue on behalf of the state and Hood refused. Second, Simpson has hammered Hood with pay-for-play accusations for tossing outside counsel contracts to his trial lawyer campaign contributors. In 2007, Gulf Coast attorney Al Hopkins -- a retired major general in the Mississippi National Guard and a longtime GOP activist -- could manage only 41.2 percent of the vote in challenging Hood on the outside counsel issue even the long political coattails of Republican Gov. Haley Barbour.

Simpson, a former district attorney and Circuit Court judge from the Gulf Coast, was Sid tapped by Salter Gov. Haley Barbour to Columnist lead the Department of Public Safety in 2008. He is the son of the late state Rep. James C. (Jim) Simpson Sr., D-Pass Christian, who served seven terms in the Mississippi House, from 1964-1992. The elder Jim Simpson died in 1994 while campaigning for his son, Jim Simpson Jr. -- who succeeded his father in House as a Republican. In 2011, there’s still no love lost between Barbour and Hood. Just this week, Barbour revealed a letter he sent to the Joint Legislative Budget Committee in which he told lawmakers that Hood had settled state lawsuits against four pharmaceutical companies over “average wholesale price” cases for $25.7 million but gave former Gov. Ronnie

Musgrove’s law firm $5.459 million in outside counsel legal fees. In the letter, Barbour said the federal government was entitled to 82.03 percent of the remaining $20 million. Barbour said the feds were also entitled to $2.729 million of the legal fees paid to Musgrove’s law firm. But after Barbour released that information to the press, Hood disputed Barbour’s contention to lawmakers that the state would net less than $1 million from the $25.7 million settlement. The outside counsel issue is one that resonates with conservatives and Hood is not the first attorney general to encounter flak over the practice. The fact that in the past Hood’s largest two campaign contributors - defrocked trial lawyers Richard “Dickie” Scruggs and Joey Langston - have done federal time on judicial corruption charges is also something that Simpson should be able to exploit in a state that currently has Republicans holding seven of eight statewide offices. But Hood survived blis-

tering attacks from Hopkins over the outside counsel issue in 2007. That year, Hood got about 9,000 more votes in the general election in his re-election bid as a Democrat than Barbour got as a Republican in his run for a second term. Simpson’s political pedigree makes him an attractive candidate, but the Republican has been dogged by attacks on his travel expenses and use of state property while leading DPS and by documented property tax liens. This week, there were new attacks on Simpson’s use of state resources while at DPS. Simpson has denied or answered the allegations, but in doing so has hampered his own ability to succeed in a significant challenge to Hood. In an increasingly contentious race, Hood remains the lone Democrat seeking statewide office who appears to be on track to be holding a victory party on election night.

Crusade against bullying determined by ‘in’ groups Back in the 1920s, the intelligentsia on both sides of the Atlantic were loudly protesting the execution of political radicals Sacco and Vanzetti, after what they claimed was an unfair trial. Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote to his young leftist friend Harold Laski, pointing out that there were “a thousand-fold worse cases” involving black defendants, “but the world does not worry over them.” Holmes said: “I cannot but ask myself why this so much greater interest in red than black.” To put it bluntly, it was a question of whose ox was gored. That is, what groups were in vogue at the moment among the intelligentsia. Blacks clearly were not. The current media and political crusade against “bullying” in schools seems likewise to be based on what groups are in vogue at the moment. For years, there have been local newspaper stories about black kids in schools in New York and Philadelphia beating up Asian classmates, some beaten so badly as to require medical treatment. But the national media hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil. Asian Americans are not in vogue today, just as blacks were not in

vogue in the 1920s. M e a n while, the media are focused on bullying directThomas ed against Sowell youngsters who are hoHoover mosexual. Institution Gays are in vogue. Most of the stories about the bullying of gays in schools are about words directed against them, not about their suffering the violence that has long been directed against Asian youngsters or about the failure of the authorities to do anything serious to stop black kids from beating up Asian kids. Where youngsters are victims of violence, whether for being gay or whatever, that is where the authorities need to step in. No decent person wants to see kids hounded, whether by words or deeds, and whether the kids are gay, Asian or whatever. But there is still a difference between words and deeds — and it is a difference we do not need to let ourselves be stampeded into ignoring. The First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees freedom of speech —

and, like any other freedom, it can be abused. If we are going to take away every Constitutional right that has been abused by somebody, we are going to end up with no Constitutional rights. Already, on too many college campuses, there are vaguely worded speech codes that can punish students for words that may hurt somebody’s feelings — but only the feelings of groups that are in vogue. Women can say anything they want to men, or blacks to whites, with impunity. But strong words in the other direction can bring down on students the wrath of the campus thought police -- as well as punishments that can extend to suspension or expulsion. Is this what we want in our public schools? The school authorities can ignore the beating up of Asian kids but homosexual organizations have enough political clout that they cannot be ignored. Moreover, there are enough avowed homosexuals among journalists that they have their own National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association — so continuing media publicity will ensure that the authorities will have to “do something.” But political pressures to

“do something” have been behind many counterproductive and even dangerous policies. A grand jury report about bullying in the schools of San Mateo County, Calif., brought all sorts of expressions of concern from school authorities -- but no definition of “bullying” nor any specifics about just what they plan to do about it. Meanwhile, a law has been passed in California that mandates teaching about the achievements of gays in the public schools. Whether this will do anything to stop either verbal or physical abuse of gay kids is very doubtful. But it will advance the agenda of homosexual organizations and can turn homosexuality into yet another of the subjects on which words on only one side are permitted. Our schools are already too lacking in the basics of education to squander even more time on propaganda for politically correct causes that are in vogue. We do not need to create special privileges in the name of equal rights. (Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305.

Officials say when it occurs the driver loses control of the vehicle. No injuries have been reported. The company manufactured the vehicles at Bad Boy Enterprises LLC in Natchez, Miss., and BB Buggies in Augusta, Ga. Officials say owners should stop using the buggies and contact the company.

Dog catches burglar PRENTISS — A Prentiss teenager is behind bars for burglary after he was tackled by man’s best friend. A 3-year-old German Shepard named Debo on Monday trapped a teenager who allegedly burglarized a car, stealing a gun and cigarettes. WDAM-TV reports the suspected thief jumped into Debo’s, backyard. Dog owner Jessie Bridges gave Debo the command to attack and the dog tackled the teen and held him down until police arrived.

Jobless rate up slightly in Mississippi JACKSON — Mississippi’s unemployment rate rose six-tenths of a percent in September to 10.6 percent, from August, according to seasonally adjusted figures from the Mississippi Department of Employment Security. The state figure for September 2010 was 10.1 percent. The nation’s sea-

sonally adjusted rate for this September was 9.1 percent. Rankin County had the lowest jobless rate at 6.9 percent followed by Madison County at 7.6 percent. The highest rates were 19 percent in Clay County and 18.1 percent in Holmes County. The number of people listed as unemployed rose to 144,300 in September from 134,600 in August. The civilian labor force, which includes the employed and those actively seeking work, rose to 1.357 million from 1.338 million.

Favre visits troops HATTIESBURG — Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre has paid a surprise visit to Ohio National Guard soldiers who are preparing to deploy to Afghanistan in the next few days. Favre spoke to and took photos with the 500 soldiers during an hour-long visit Tuesday at the Camp Shelby Training Center south of Hattiesburg, Miss. The soldiers make up five units of Task Force 1st Battalion, 134th Field Artillery. “I’ve had the opportunity to be part of some great things, but to be invited and asked to come speak to these guys, it’s a special feeling. For what these guys and these ladies do, words can’t really express our gratitude towards them,” Favre said before talking to the soldiers.

Gill, Hyde-Smith talk ag commissioner job BY PATSY R. BRUMFIELD Associated Press

TUPELO — Joel Gill and Cindy Hyde-Smith predict changes with either one’s election as the state’s next commissioner of agriculture and commerce. Gill, a 60-year-old Democrat, says he believes the department lost its vision in the waning years of Dr. Lester Spell’s four terms. Spell isn’t seeking re-election. “I’ve been a businessman the past 42 years,” said Gill, mayor of Pickens in Holmes County. He and his family operate a cattle buy-sell business and know the ups and down of agriculture. But he says he aims to be more than an administrator. “The people are hiring a voice to speak up for the Mississippi producer and the Mississippi consumer,” he notes. Hyde-Smith, a 52-yearold Republican in the livestock business with her husband, insists she’s rediscovered the department’s ability to recruit jobs in agricultural research, not something traditional economic developers think about. “With 25 percent of Mississippi’s jobs related to agriculture,” she says, “I’ve realized that this part of our economy can be expanded, with a concerted effort.” The out-going state sena-

tor from Brookhaven says she’s meeting with decision-makers in agricultural research companies, and she’s optimistic something good will come of those efforts. With no primary opponent, Gill’s campaign reports raising $36,620, with $17,167 on hand as of Oct. 9. Hyde-Smith won her party primary outright and still had $63,379 in the bank Oct. 10, from a campaign total of $295,563. Gill says his experience with the Mississippi Beef Council and the Mississippi Livestock Markets Association give him a long-term perspective on agricultural and business issues. “I bring creative thinking and foresight” to the job, he says. He recalls criticism a few years back when he opposed the state’s backing of a beef processing plant in Yalobusha County. The project failed quickly and principals went to prison

for illegal activity associated with its construction. One of the department’s big responsibilities is operation of the Mississippi State Fairgrounds in Jackson. Hyde-Smith and Gill agree they want to take a look at how it’s operated and make improvements, where needed. Hyde-Smith says that with predictable growth in world populations, Mississippi must be a bigger player in helping feed the world. Gill voices concern about the future of Mississippi farms, saying he’d like to institute a mentor or apprentice program to pair young farmers with senior farmers who lack heirs or family interests in continuing their operations.

McCaskill sells private plane WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., has sold a private plane she co-owns with her husband, months after her use of it for official business and failure to pay back taxes created a political headache. In April, McCaskill said she would â&#x20AC;&#x153;sell the damn planeâ&#x20AC;? after a series of damaging revelations. First she repaid the government $88,000 after she was criticized for reimbursing herself for use of the plane on official and political travel. Then she paid $287,000 in back taxes, penalties and interest to St. Louis County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Claire said she would sell the plane and she did,â&#x20AC;? said Trevor Kincaid, a McCaskill spokesman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;True to her word as always.â&#x20AC;? Kincaid said the plane sold for approximately $1.9 million to Northeast Montana Stat Air Ambulance Cooperative, which was a loss. Kincaid declined to specify how great a loss it was. McCaskill, seeking re-election in 2012, faces a tough race in a state she narrowly won in 2006. Republicans have pounded McCaskill on the plane, dubbing it â&#x20AC;&#x153;Air Claireâ&#x20AC;? and using it to damage McCaskillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation as a champion of good government. Three Republicans are vying to take her on: Rep. Todd Akin, St. Louis-area businessman John Brunner and former State Treasurer Sarah Steelman. After McCaskillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s troubles surfaced, Republicans filed a complaint with the Senate Ethics Committee, which was dismissed. Reimbursement for official travel is allowed under Senate rules but not for political travel. McCaskill reimbursed the government for all of her travel with the plane.

Even with the planeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sale, Missouri Republicans and the eventual GOP Senate nominee are certain to highlight the issue as McCaskill runs for re-election. Â

NYPD keeps files on renamed Muslims

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; For generations, immigrants have shed their ancestral identities and taken new, Americanized names as they found their place in the melting pot. For Muslims in New York, that rite of assimilation is now seen by police as a possible red flag in the hunt for terrorists. The New York Police Department monitors everyone in the city who changes his or her name, according to interviews and internal police documents obtained by The Associated Press. For those whose names sound Arabic or might be from Muslim countries, police run comprehensive background checks that include reviewing travel records, criminal histories, business licenses and immigration documents. All this is recorded in police databases for supervisors, who review the names and select a handful of people for police to visit. The program was conceived as a tripwire for police in the difficult hunt for homegrown terrorists, where there are no widely agreed upon warning signs. Like other NYPD intelligence programs created in the past decade, this one involved monitoring behavior protected by the First Amendment. Since August, an Associated Press investigation has revealed a vast NYPD intelligencecollecting effort targeting Muslims following the terror attacks of September 2001. Police have conducted surveillance of entire Muslim neighborhoods, chronicling daily life including where people eat, pray and get ICK AIN their hair cut.

This is only the second northern lights in a decade that he has seen this far south. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are very rare events,â&#x20AC;? said NASA scientist Bill Cooke, who found the aurora photos in the Alabama cameraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archive and posted them on the Marshall Space Flight Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blog. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see them this far south that often.â&#x20AC;?

The storm was only considered â&#x20AC;&#x153;moderateâ&#x20AC;? sized, he said. He called the storm unusual, its effects reaching Earth eight hours faster than forecast.

ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jim Arrighi last saw Petey, his 4-year-old Jack Russell terrier, in the backyard of his Erin, Tenn., home. That was in July, and the 73-year-old retired electrician had nearly given up on seeing his pet again when he learned the dog turned up safe about 500 miles away in suburban Detroit. A Michigan Humane Society volunteer was expected to return Petey to Arrighi Thursday morning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is just a little town and everybody is buzzing about it,â&#x20AC;? said Arrighiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter, Tyanne Morrison. Most of Erinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roughly 7,000 residents know one another, and many of them would recognize Petey, which is why Arrighi, Morrison and their friends suspect he was pooch-napped by an out-of-towner.

Morrison believes Petey left his yard â&#x20AC;&#x153;and somebody picked him up.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We searched. We knew someone had gotten him,â&#x20AC;? she told The Associated Press by phone on Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got on 4-wheelers and went all over the area. There had been some more dogs over the last few months that were missing.â&#x20AC;? While struggling with the loss of his dog, Arrighi also lost his wife, Juanita, who suffered from pulmonary disease and died Oct. 12. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since my mother passed away, even I told him â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;why donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t we go to the pound to give a home to a puppy that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a home,â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Morrison said. Last week, a homeowner in Rochester Hills, about 20 miles north of Detroit, saw Petey in his backyard and took him to a Humane Society animal care center. As it does with every recovered dog and cat, the Michigan Humane Society

scanned Petey for an implanted microchip, which led the organization to its owner, spokesman Kevin Hatman said. Arrighi, who has been staying at Morrisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home since his wife died, was thrilled to receive the call, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He thinks my mother, who is in heaven, sent the dog back to him,â&#x20AC;? Morrison said. She said their local veterinarian likely recommended Petey get a microchip. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was only about $70 total,â&#x20AC;? Morrison said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now, a lot of people are inquiring about it.â&#x20AC;? The Michigan Humane Society recommends that all pet dogs and cats get microchips implanted, in addition to making sure they have collars and identification tags. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonderful when we see microchip reunions, including those that seem like miracles,â&#x20AC;? said Marcelena Mace, shelter

A sweeping new egg rule enacted last year would require most egg producers to do more testing for pathogens. Though the rule will eventually cover more than 99 percent of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s egg supply, small farms like Larry Schultz Organic Farm of Owatonna, Minn., would not qualify. That farm issued a recall last week after six cases of salmonella poisoning were linked to the

Microchips, which also are implanted in pet cats, are about the size of a grain of rice and typically injected near the animalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoulder blade, said Adam Goldfarb, director of pet care issues with the Washington, D.C.-based Humane Society of the United States. The chips do not have their own power sources and only can be found and read with a scanner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the last few years there has been a real jump in microchip usage, especially in animal shelters,â&#x20AC;? Goldfarb said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are not nearly as many that should be microchipped. Sometimes owners are not great in registering their animals with microchip companies or updating their home information.â&#x20AC;?

In Arkansas, Emfinger went out shortly after sunset after getting a space weather alert. He saw auroras that lasted until after 11 p.m. An aurora begins with a storm shooting a magnetic solar wind from the sun. The wind slams into Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magnetic field, compressing it. That excites electrons of oxygen and nitrogen. When those excited electrons calm down, they emit red and green colors, Rutledge said. Often solar storms can cause damage satellites and power grids. This one didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, Rutledge said.

farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eggs. A new food safety law President Barack Obama signed earlier this year exempts some small farms as a result of farmers and local food advocates complaining that creating costly food safety plans could cause some small businesses to go bankrupt. The exemption covers farms of a certain size that sell within a limited distance of their operation. Food safety advocates unsuccessfully lobbied against the provision, as did the organic industry. Christine Bushway of the Organic Trade Association, which represents large and small producers, says food safety comes down to proper operation of a farm or food company, not its scale. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How is the farm managed? How much effort is put into food safety?â&#x20AC;? she asks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have really good management, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter.â&#x20AC;? Smaller farms do have some obvious food safety advantages. Owners have more control over what they are producing and often do not ship as far, lessening the chances for contamination in transport. If the farm is organic, an inspector will have to visit the property to certify it is organic and may report to authorities if they see food being produced in an unsafe way. Customers may also be familiar with an operation if it is nearby.

NEW YORK — A former board member of Goldman Sachs and Procter & Gamble pleaded not guilty Wednesday to federal charges accusing him of acting as “the illegal eyes and ears in the boardroom” for a friend who was already convicted in the biggest insider trading case in history. The case, built partially on use of wiretaps for the first time in insider trading, stands to offer unprecedented insight into allegations of greed at the highest levels of Wall Street. The indictment unsealed Wednesday accuses Rajat Gupta of cheating the markets with Raj Rajaratnam, the convicted hedge fund founder who was the probe’s prime target. Gupta, 62, quietly surrendered early in the day at the FBI’s New York City office, a few blocks north of the ongoing Occupy

Wall Street demonstration against what they call a culture of corporate greed. His lawyer called the allegations “totally baseless.” Gupta, of Westport, Conn., pleaded not guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and five counts of securities fraud, charges that carry a potential penalty of 105 years in prison. He was freed on $10 million bail, and conditions call for him to remain in the continental United States. A trial date of April 9 was set. The indictment unsealed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan alleges Gupta shared confidential information about both Goldman Sachs and Procter & Gamble at the height of the financial crisis from 2008 through January 2009, knowing that Rajaratnam would use the secrets to buy and sell stock ahead of public announcements. In a release, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said

Gupta broke the trust of some of the nation’s top public companies and “became the illegal eyes and ears in the boardroom for his friend and business associate, Raj Rajaratnam, who reaped enormous profits from Mr. Gupta’s breach of duty.” Alluding to the wide scope of the prosecution, he added: “Today we allege that the corruption we have seen in the trading cubicles, investment firms, law firms, expert consulting firms, medical labs, and corporate suites also insinuated itself into the boardrooms of elite companies.” In all, 56 people have been charged in insider trading cases since Bharara took over shortly before Rajaratanam’s October 2009 arrest. Of those, 51 have been convicted and 21 sentenced to prison terms ranging from no prison time to 11 years. FBI Assistant Directorin-Charge Janice Fedarcyk

said Gupta’s arrest was the latest to occur in an initiative launched by the FBI in 2007 against hedge fund cheats. “The conduct alleged is not an inadvertent slip of the tongue by Mr. Gupta,” she said. “His eagerness to pass along inside information to Rajaratnam is nowhere more starkly evident than in the two instances where a total of 39 seconds elapsed between his learning of crucial Goldman Sachs information and lavishing it on his good friend.” The prosecutions for the first time employed extensive use of wiretaps to catch insider trading suspects. If the Gupta case goes to trial, taped conversations would be key evidence, as it was in the Rajaratnam trial. The Rajaratnam probe led to a major spinoff investigation of expert networking firms, which link employees at public companies with hedge fund managers.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Oakland demonstrators vowed on Wednesday to return to their protest site just hours after police cleared hundreds of people from the streets with tear gas and bean bag rounds. A Twitter feed used by Oakland’s Occupy Wall Street movement called on protesters to return to downtown at 6 p.m. for another round, and some demonstrators vowed to return as soon as possible. Max Alper, 31, a union organizer from Berkeley, gathered with a handful of other protesters Wednesday at the scene of Tuesday night’s clash. “As soon as these barricades are moved, hundreds of people are going to come back. These actions by police were wrong, but they’re just going to strengthen the movement,” Alper said. Alper was arrested Tuesday morning when he went to witness the police raid on the Occupy Oakland encampment outside City Hall, he said. He said his arm was injured when baton-swinging police descended on him and other protesters. Standing with about two dozen other Occupy supporters near the plaza, 49-year-old Nsomeka Gomes of Oakland said she felt the effects of the tear gas Tuesday but planned to be back to march Wednes-

day night nonetheless. “I’m going to keep supporting the reoccupation. This is the peoples’ plaza,” Gomes said. On Wednesday morning the city had erected a chainlink fence around the plaza, and workers were mowing the grass and sweeping up remnants of the encampment that was dismantled Tuesday morning. After the encampment was cleared, protesters began marching toward City Hall in an attempt to re-establish a presence in the area of the disbanded camp. They were met by police officers in riot gear. Several small skirmishes broke out and officers cleared the area by firing tear gas. The scene repeated itself several times just a few blocks away in front of the plaza, where police set up behind metal barricades, preventing protesters from gaining access to the site. Tensions would build as protesters edged ever closer to the police line and reach a breaking point with a demonstrator hurling a bottle or rock, prompting police to respond with another round of gas. The chemical haze hung

in the air for hours, new blasts clouding the air before the previous fog could dissipate. The number of protesters diminished with each round of tear gas. Police estimated that there were roughly 1,000 demonstrators at the first clash following the march. About 200 remained after the final conflict around 11:15 PDT, mostly young adults, some riding bicycles, protecting themselves from the noxious fumes with bandanas and scarves wrapped around their faces. Police have denied reports that they used flash bang canisters to help break up the crowds, saying

the loud noises came from large firecrackers thrown at police by protesters. Helicopters scanned the area late Tuesday and scores of officers wearing helmets and carrying clubs patrolled the streets. Fire crews put out small blazes in trash containers. Protesters moved about uneasily even as one used a bull horn to express his resolve. “This movement is more than just the people versus the police,” Mario Fernandez said. “It’s about the people trying to have their rights to basic services.” He added, “This crowd isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.”

MOMENTS AFTER DEATH Across the years many questions have been raised concerning death. All of the human race is facing death and the judgment. “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Heb 9:27). Luke 16:19-31 tells of two men who lived and the condition of both men after death. At death there is a separation of the body and the spirit. “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also” (Jam 2:26). The body returns to the dust, but the spirit returns to God who gave it. “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it” (Eccl 12:7). The righteous are escorted to their abode. “And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried” (Luke 16:22). There is no danger of one getting lost on the journey to the other side; neither can destiny be altered. It is possible for death to occur anywhere along the road of life. Destiny is determined by the way that one lives. “For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting” (Gal 6:8). The righteous and unrighteous go to different places after death. “And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom” (Luke 16:22-23). Souls are conscious after death, “But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented” (Luke 16:25). The passage above reveals that there is memory after death. After death, there is a great gulf between the righteous and the unrighteous. “And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence” (Luke 16:26). The righteous have something to look forward to after death, but not the unrighteous. “Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints’ (Ps 116:15). Where will we be moments after death? The choices that we make will determine whether our eternal destiny will be heaven or hell.

Crumby paces AC in 4th place BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

ATHENS, Ala. — Forrest Crumby turned in his best performance of the year for Alcorn Central. Crumby was the fastest AC

runner in leading the Bears to a fourth place finish at Athens, Ala. His 18:15 was good enough for third overall and pushed Central’s mark to 25-13 under head coach Bobby Purvis. Samuel Holley and Jakob

Carter were the only other AC runners to finish under 20 minutes. Holley completed the course in 19:13 while Carter crossed at 19:24. 4th -- ALCORN CENTRAL: 3. Forrest Crumby,

Red zone proves unkind for MSU BY DAVID BRANDT The Associated Press

STARKVILLE — Vick Ballard is no stranger to the end zone, scoring a Mississippi State-record 20 touchdowns last season. That final white line, however, has been awfully hard for the senior running back to cross this season with the Bulldogs struggling badly in the red zone. It’s one of many reasons Mississippi State has fallen from the national rankings to the bottom of the Southeastern Conference’s Western Division. “It’s like everything for this

season,” coach Dan Mullen said. “If one guy makes a mistake, there’s a chance for a breakdown on the play. And problems compound down in the red zone because there’s no space. It’s a defense-advantage area. Obviously, we don’t have very far to go, but they’ve got a lot less field to defend so the margin of error becomes a lot smaller.” Mississippi State is averaging just 15.5 points in four SEC games this season and the low output can directly be attributed to problems in the red zone. The Bulldogs have scored just three touchdowns in 11 trips inside the 20-yard

line — the worst ratio in the league. Mississippi State (3-4, 0-4 SEC) is trying to change that before Saturday’s trip to Kentucky (3-4, 0-3). Both teams are badly in need of a win to have much hope at being bowl eligible by the end of the season. The Bulldogs have tinkered with a few lineups changes throughout the season to try and create more offense, but Mullen said it’s been hard to pinpoint one player that’s been the root of the problem. “It’s a different guy each play,” Mullen said. “The UAB game was a perfect example.

We gave up a few sacks. It’s a different guy each play. Not one guy gave up three sacks. Every guy on the line gives up one. That’s a big problem. That’s on us. We have to make sure our guys are executing on every single play.” The Bulldogs’ red zone problems have been particularly frustrating because the rest of the offense has been decent. Ballard’s numbers are a perfect example. He’s rushed for 85.4 yards a game and 5.7 yards per carry — both career highs — but he’s scored only Please see MSU | 9

Summitt focuses on hoops, manages dementia BY BETH RUCKER The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Pat Summitt has handled the talk about her dementia diagnosis the same way she manages Tennessee basketball and her life: with control and determination. The Hall of Fame coach dictated how news of her condition was revealed in August and has made it clear since that she wants the focus to be

on the Lady Volunteers basketball program and not her. “That’s the reason for when I came out with dementia and Alzheimer’s,” Summitt said. “I knew I had to do it, and I did it. I’ve got a good game plan. I feel good about it, and I think it motivated this team.” She’s stuck to that plan, speaking reluctantly at practices about her diagnosis while steering conversations to Tennessee’s strengths,

weaknesses and chances for a ninth national championship. On Thursday, she’ll face more questions about dementia and Alzheimer’s disease when she makes her first major public appearance for the annual Southeastern Conference media day in Birmingham, Ala. “I don’t want it to be all about me. I want to be able to help other people know you can live your life with demen-

tia,” Summitt said. She’s got plenty of basketball to talk about, with the Lady Vols unanimously picked by the media this week to defend their SEC title and senior forward Shekinna Stricklen tabbed as the league’s preseason player of the year. Assistant coach Dean Lockwood doesn’t think Summitt Please see HOOPS | 9

Rain forces change of schedule in World Series BY BEN WALKER The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Game 6 of the World Series was postponed Wednesday because of a wet forecast, delaying the Texas Rangers’ bid to clinch their first championship. Major League Baseball announced the decision about 4 1/2 hours before the Rangers and St. Louis Cardinals were set to play. At the time, no rain had fallen at Busch Stadium, but heavy precipitation was expected. Texas leads the Series 3-2. Game 6 was rescheduled for Thursday night at 8:05 p.m. EDT. If Game 7 is necessary, it would be played Friday night.

“Because of the forecast, there was no reason to wait any longer,” said Joe Torre, MLB’s executive vice president of baseball operations. Torre said he told managers Ron Washington of Texas and Tony La Russa of St. Louis on Tuesday that if the forecast didn’t change, baseball would postpone it early. Rain was in “every forecast we had probably for the last three days,” Torre said at a news conference. “They were all consistent there was going to be rain during the game.” Looking at Commissioner Bud Selig, Torre asked: “Do you want to play in rain?” Colby Lewis had been set

to start for Texas, with Jaime Garcia ready to go for the Cardinals. If anything, the extra day may lead to more intrigue over who might pitch for St. Louis should the Series go to a Game 7 for the first time since 2002. Washington already has said Matt Harrison would start if the Series goes that far. The forecast for Thursday was much better — clear enough with a gametime temperature in the low 50s. Rain has hovered over the majors all year with more than 50 washouts, baseball’s highest total since 1997. This was the first Series rainout since 2008 at Phila-

delphia. That year, Tampa Bay and the Phillies were tied in the sixth inning when rain and snow turned the field into a quagmire, forcing a suspension. It rained the next day, too, and the game finally resumed two days later, with the Phillies winning to take the crown. Because of the debate Please see SERIES | 9

five touchdowns. Ballard acknowledges some frustration but is adamant the touchdowns will come. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just go out and do my job,â&#x20AC;? Ballard said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really even think about it.â&#x20AC;? The problems arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all his fault. Ballardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s powerful 5-foot11, 220-pound frame is most effective in short-yardage situations. He scored six 1-yard touchdowns last season, but has rarely been put in that position because the Bulldogs canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the ball that far downfield. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty of blame to go around. Senior quarterback Chris Relf is known as a runner, but hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been nearly as effective this season. He was recently replaced by sophomore Tyler Russell, who is the better thrower but not nearly as mobile. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lend itself to the long, grinding drives that were the trademark of Mississippi State last season. The offensive line has also dealt with setbacks, including a season-ending knee injury to guard Tobias Smith early in the season. But senior center Quentin Saulsberry said the Bulldogs still have the talent to create running room for Ballard and LaDarius Perkins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pride thing,â&#x20AC;? Saulsberry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you get in the red zone youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to score. Your eye color has to change. Your demeanor has to change. I think our demeanor has to continue to change and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get more aggressive in the red zone.â&#x20AC;?

SERIES: Last rainout also at Busch CONTINUED FROM 8

about how to handle that situation MLB adopted a rule a few months later mandating that any postseason game stopped in progress would be resumed at the point of suspension, rather than being postponed and starting over. Before that, the previous Series rainout came at Busch Stadium, when Game 4 between Detroit and the Cardinals was pushed back by a day. A few hundred fans already were milling outside Busch Stadium when the Rangers-Cardinals game was called. The tarp was on the field at the time. Later, about a dozen St. Louis players came out to toss around balls in right field. Bad weather has lingered throughout the big leagues since opening day. Even before that, actually, as the Milwaukee Brewers and Reds worked out in snow flurries a day before their March 31 opener at Cincinnati. Wicked weather intruded earlier in this postseason, too. So did the threat of storms. A game in the AL championship series between Detroit and Texas was postponed for a day because of a dicey forecast.

HOOPS: Lady Vols adapt to Summittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s distraction with season approaching CONTINUED FROM 8

or anyone on the team will be distracted by talk of Summittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve accepted something, it becomes part of your daily existence. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of us now,â&#x20AC;? Lockwood said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll answer questions, but after a while itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to become â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ho hum.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; (The players are) very focused on doing well. I think maybe this has given them an incentive to do it even more for a coach they love and respect.â&#x20AC;?

Summitt made it clear to the Lady Vols that nothing would change after she told them in August sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. She was still their coach, and the plan to win a national championship this season hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t changed. What has changed for Summitt is her daily routine. While drinking her morning coffee sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll play brain-bender games on her iPad or work on math skills to help keep her mind sharp. She adds coconut

oil to her daily protein shakes. Son Tyler Summitt writes out her to-do lists to keep her organized, and Summitt occasionally will take a few extra breaks outside of her daily naps that she claims have been a key to her ongoing success. She still has her friends and staff over for dinner from time to time, and she has no problem joking with her assistants, like she did after a 6 a.m. Monday practice last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She walked in and said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Who called this practice? I thought I

was the head coach. I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be calling a practice this early,â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said associate head coach Holly Warlick, the offending party. Summitt has long relied on her assistants to scout opponents and develop players, but they have been more involved in running drills this month.

Tide rolls in second half, ready for LSU showdown. Suspensions not an issue in big win over Auburn. Broncos get all they can handle from Air Force. Backups shine in blowout win over Colorado. Balanced offense helps Pokes avoid Mizzou upset. Tajh Boyd ties Clemson record with five TD passes. Cardinal blasts Washington for 15th win in a row. Big second half prevents Ole Miss’ upset bid. Another crazy finish bounces in favor of Sparty. Hokies coast to easy win over Boston College. Badgers rally falls short in East Lansing. Big Red invades Minneapolis for an easy win. Storybook year continues with blowout win over KU. Sooners’ title hopes over after loss to Texas Tech. Replacing Marcus Lattimore won’t be easy. Sun Devils in firm control of Pac-12 South. Aggies’ ground attack wears down Iowa State. Red Raiders pull off first big upset of ’11 season. Dawgs are in good shape in the SEC East. Bye week helps Shoelace get back to 100 percent. Barkley and Woods shine against Golden Domers. Canes suffocate Tech’s rushing attack. Lions quietly putting together a solid season. Back-to-back losses damage Coastal title hopes. Longhorns use bye week to get ready for Kansas.

Stanford owns the nation’s longest active winning streak at 15 games, and each of the last 10 wins have come by at least 25 points. The Cardinal are balanced on offense and dominant against the run on defense — a formula that will win any team a ton of games. USC is coming off arguably the finest showing of the brief Lane Kiffin era, a 31–17 win over Notre Dame in South Bend. The USC defense has climbed 18 spots in the national rankings in the last two weeks (from 61st to 43rd) after giving up 329 yards to California and 267 yards to Notre Dame in backto-back wins. Stanford will be tested, but the Cardinal will do what they always seem to do — win by double digits. Stanford 37, USC 23

GEORGIA VS. FLORIDA (AT JACKSONVILLE)

Georgia heads to Jacksonville riding a five-game winning streak and coming off a bye week. The Bulldogs are tied with South Carolina atop the SEC East but do not have the tiebreaker by virtue of their loss to the Gamecocks in early September. However, South Carolina is now without star tailback Marcus Lattimore and has a more difficult remaining schedule. So it’s safe to say that Georgia is now the team to beat in the East. But first things first: The Dawgs must get by a Florida team that they have defeated only three times in the past 21 games. This Gator club, however, could be the least imposing of the last two decades. The of-

Athlon Looks Back A seldom-used backup QB was the difference in a Wisconsin win over Ohio State. Score: Wisconsin 17, Ohio State 10 Date: Oct. 11, 2003 Details: Backup quarterback Matt Schabert took over for the injured Jim Sorgi and completed a 79-yard touchdown pass to Lee Evans for the winning touchdown with 5:20 remaining in the game against the defending national champions. The win was the 15th in the past 16 night games for Wisconsin and improved its record to 16–5 under the lights in coach Barry Alvarez’s 14 seasons at the time. It also snapped a 19-game winning streak by No. 3 Ohio State. Sorgi was knocked out of the game when he was choked in a pile by Buckeyes linebacker Robert Reynolds. Schabert’s only other extensive playing time had come in a loss to Michigan State two years earlier. But he was ready when called upon, completing two passes for 104 yards and also running for a key first down on a bootleg. Schabert later transferred prior to his senior season, due to a lack of playing time. But he left his mark in a big way, despite his limited chances. “Matt Schabert stepped in, in a tough situation,” Alvarez said. “Boy, did Schabert do a job.”

OKLAHOMA AT KANSAS STATE

Oklahoma’s shocking loss at home to Texas Tech — the Sooners’ first defeat in Norman since 2005 — ruined Kansas State’s chances of hosting ESPN College GameDay this weekend. It’s still a big game in Manhattan, but it’s no longer a showdown of unbeaten teams. Kansas State did its part, shredding rival Kansas, 59–21, in Lawrence. Bill Snyder’s amazing Wildcats are now 7–0 overall and 4–0 in the Big 12. This team won’t wow you with its talent, but the Cats run the ball well, stop the run and don’t turn it over. In four Big 12 games, K-State has committed only two turnovers, one interception against Baylor and one against Missouri. The Wildcats won five straight in this series from 199397 but have only won once since, a 35– 7 beatdown in the 2003 Big 12 title game. Oklahoma 31, Kansas State 21

STANFORD AT USC

COLLIN KLEIN, KANSAS STATE Klein quickly ended any hopes of a Kansas upset. The junior QB scored on a seven-yard run in the first quarter, which was the first of many TDs for Kansas State. Klein finished with five total scores, rushed for 92 yards and threw for 195. The first-year starter is a big reason why K-State is in the mix for the Big 12 title. KOURTNEI BROWN, CLEMSON Clemson’s offense is stealing the headlines, but the Tigers got some help from the defense Saturday against North Carolina. Brown, a senior defensive end, became the first player in ACC history to return an interception and a fumble for a touchdown in the same game. CASE KEENUM, HOUSTON Keenum led Houston to a 63–28 blowout over Marshall, becoming the NCAA’s all-time leader in total offense along the way. The senior broke Timmy Chang’s record early in the first quarter and finished with 376 yards and six passing TDs. Keenum has five games left and needs just 802 passing yards to break the NCAA record. KIRK COUSINS, MICHIGAN STATE Cousins has provided several highlights during his career, but Saturday might have moved to No. 1 on the list. On the final play of the game, Cousins tossed a 44-yard Hail Mary, which was caught by Keith Nichol for the winning score. The touchdown knocked Wisconsin from the ranks of the unbeaten.

The Red Raiders rolled up over 600 yards of offense and took advantage of two Oklahoma turnovers to pull one of 2011’s biggest upsets. The Sooners were one of the frontrunners to play for the naTEXAS TECH 41 tional title, but hopes OKLAHOMA 38 those likely ended with Saturday’s defeat. The game was delayed due to inclement weather, but that didn’t seem to bother Texas Tech. Led by quarterback Seth Doege, the Red Raiders jumped out to a 24–7 lead at halftime. The Sooners staged a furious rally in the second half, cutting the deficit to 31–24 early in the fourth quarter. However, Texas Tech had an answer for every Oklahoma score and held on for a 41–38 victory. OU quarterback Landry Jones threw for 406 yards and five scores but struggled with his accuracy most of the night. Oklahoma’s secondary missed top cornerback Jamell Fleming, who sat out Saturday’s game with a knee injury. This was Texas Tech’s first victory in Norman since 1996, but surprisingly, the fourth win for Texas Tech in the last seven matchups against the Sooners. The loss snapped Oklahoma’s 39game home winning streak.

Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy, has thrown 20 touchdowns with only three interceptions this season.

fense has issues — even if John Brantley is back at quarterback — and the defense has given up an average of 206.3 yards rushing in the last three games. Georgia 27, Florida 17 MICHIGAN STATE AT NEBRASKA

Iowa and Michigan are still in the picture, but there’s a very good chance that the winner of the Michigan StateNebraska battle will represent the Legends Division in the first-ever Big Ten Championship Game. The Spartans must come down from the emotional high of their thrilling win over Wisconsin last weekend. On paper, this is a pretty good matchup for Michigan State. The Spartans are strong against the run, and Nebraska is obviously a team that thinks run first (and second). Taylor Martinez is improved as a passer — he has thrown for at least 150 yards in all but one game — but it’s still a good idea defensively to make Martinez beat you with his arm, not his legs. Nebraska 24, Michigan State 21 CLEMSON AT GEORGIA TECH

Those of us waiting for Clemson to have a Clemson moment and lose to an inferior team when it’s least expected might be waiting for a long time. The 2011 Tigers seem to have a mental toughness that has been lacking in previous Clemson teams. There

have been some issues on defense — the Tigers have given up a total of 83 points in the last two games — but the offense, loaded with playmakers, has been nearly unstoppable. Georgia Tech raced out of the gate with six straight wins, but the Yellow Jackets have lost back-to-back games, falling 24–21 at Virginia and 24–7 at Miami (Fla.). The defense has been fine, but the usually potent option attack averaged only 253.5 total yards in the two losses. Clemson 34, Georgia Tech 27

Athlon Fantasy Flash

WISCONSIN AT OHIO STATE

Washington running back Chris Polk is quietly putting together an impressive season. The junior leads the Pac-12 with 872 rushing yards and has been held under 100 yards only once this year. This Saturday, Polk and the Huskies take on Arizona, which has been generous against the run this year. The Wildcats are allowing 173.3 yards per game on the ground, and opponents have posted 14 rushing scores. With Arizona’s offense capable of keeping this one close, look for Polk to see 25-30 carries with over 150 yards and two touchdowns.

Not many people expected these two teams to be a combined 3–3 in the Big Ten at this point of the season. Ohio State is 1–2 thanks to an offense that is struggling to score points against quality competition. Wisconsin was considered by most to be a legitimate national title contender before losing last week at Michigan State on the final play of the game. This is still a very important game in the Leaders Division. Penn State sits atop the division with a 4–0 mark, but the Lions have a very difficult remaining schedule and will have a hard time holding on to the lead. Wisconsin, if it can find a way to win at Ohio State, will be the overwhelming favorite to win the division. Wisconsin 24, Ohio State 20

Big East coaches recruit around changing membership BY PAT EATON-ROBB The Associated Press

HARTFORD, Conn. — Defections from the Big East conference have not only left presidents and chancellors scrambling to secure the future of their athletic programs, they also have begun to affect recruiting. A decision by West Virginia to accept an invitation into the Big 12 would leave the Big East with just five football members. Pittsburgh and Syracuse have accepted invitations

to join the Atlantic Coast Conference, and TCU — previously scheduled to join the Big East in 2012 — instead plans to join West Virginia in the Big 12. Earlier this month, the Big East announced plans to expand to 12 members, but has not yet issued any invitations. Louisville coach Charlie Strong is among those who believe the lack of stability is becoming an issue for prospects. “The thing that recruits want to know is what’s

going to happen with the conference,” he said. “Who’s all leaving, who’s staying? You’d like to have it (resolved) more sooner than later because we’re going to get into recruiting season and I think that’s how people are going to recruit against you.” Coaches are in an NCAA “quiet period” for recruiting, which means they aren’t allowed to visit athletes, and won’t be again until late November. But they are on the phone weekly with those already

committed to the school, making sure everything is still OK. “I hope everything settles down and we can keep playing (in the Big East), but I don’t know,” Rutgers coach Greg Schiano said. “I don’t get into it. All I tell ‘em is that I do know who we are and what we are and I’m confident that when all the dust settles we’re going to be in a good situation here at Rutgers.” Several coaches said they have heard very few questions from recruits

about conference realignment. Most of the young men involved in the process, they say, are more concerned about individual schools, and whether they would fit there socially and academically. “There are so many moving parts and there is so much speculation going on,” Cincinnati coach Butch Jones said. “And really, nobody knows. So, all you can do is focus on what you know and focus on the relationship part of it and why an individual chooses

a school and usually it’s not because of a conference, it’s because of relationships and what that institution has to offer.” But one of the things Pittsburgh and Syracuse now have to offer is a secure future in the ACC. Pitt coach Todd Graham said that has been a boon to his recruiting efforts. “I think that’s very important to sit back and know that we’re going to be competing at the highest level both academically and athletically,” he said.

Reconnection may be rocky for mom, daughter

Area high school students were able to explore campus life during High School Day 2011 at Jackson State University thanks to Corinthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brothers Making a Difference.

Still trying to make a difference Special to the Daily Corinthian

Brothers Making a Difference, Inc. is non-profit organization established in 1999 focusing on mentoring and cultural enrichment. On Saturday, Sept. 24 BMAD chaperoned 31 high school students from Booneville, Corinth, Kossuth and McNairy Central to Jackson

State University for their annual High School Day 2011. The day began at 3:30 a.m. and concluded at 12:30 a.m. Upon arriving at Jackson State, the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities included campus tours, academic colleges and departmental displays, a greeting from President Carolyn

Meyers, Miss JSU and the SGA president, a performance by the Sonic Boom of the South marching band, The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Divine Nineâ&#x20AC;? Greek Step-Off and lunch. The event ended with a gridiron battle between Jackson State and Alabama State. The tripâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purpose was to expose area youth to

campus life at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU). Two main factors in choosing a college or university are majors offered and personal fit. BMAD hopes they opened eyes by letting students experience a glimpse of what is available at a HBCU.

Local residents attend program at Disney Park Special to the Daily Corinthian

St. Mark Baptist Church of Corinth traveled to the Disneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hollywood Studios Resort this summer to take part in the Disney Youth Education Series Program (Y.E.S.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Disneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Animation Magic.â&#x20AC;? Each year, individuals and groups from around

the world travel to Disneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hollywood Studios to take part in one of the several Disney Y.E.S. programs offered throughout the Resort. Most of the programs take place in and behind the scenes of the worldfamous Theme Parks. Areas of study include career discovery, life

management, physical science, natural science, history, and art and humanities. The programs use varied resources onstage and backstage to bring real world examples to the learning experience. These two- to three-hour interactive educational experiences are available

at both the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida and Disneyland Resort in California. They are led by professional Disney facilitators. (For more information on Disney Y.E.S. Programs, visit www. DisneyYES.com or call 800-603-0552.)

DEAR ABBY: Years ago, I placed my daughter for adoption. Dear The cirAbby cumstances that Abigail led me to van Buren make the decision were compelling. After 18 years, I was surprised and elated to hear from her. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 23, has a child of her own and is engaged to be married. I tried to maintain communication, but she stopped corresponding. After a period of not wanting to talk, she is now trying to get back in touch with me and her siblings. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re unsure what to think about this and questioning her motives. Does she truly want us to be involved with her and her daughter? Or is this a way to get gifts for her child and her upcoming wedding? I would like to discuss this with her, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hesitant for fear of losing her again. I always wanted a relationship with my daughter. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m confused and afraid of being hurt again. What can I do? -BIRTH MOM IN WISCONSIN DEAR BIRTH MOM: By all means have a discussion with your daughter, but do it in reference to the fact that you were puzzled and hurt when she suddenly ceased communication with you. Let her explain what led to it. She may have been dealing with mixed emotions. Because you want a re-

lationship with her, you may have to accept that it will proceed in fits and starts -- and may not blossom the way you might wish it to. DEAR ABBY: My mom goes overboard with gifts for my sons. I have asked her to scale back, but she said they â&#x20AC;&#x153;expectâ&#x20AC;? her to give them stuff. The problem is she gives them random things that hold no interest for them. My sons always thank her, but their rooms are packed full of stuff. When I asked Mom to just give the boys a book about the next place she visits, she became defensive. Can you help me? -TOO MUCH STUFF IN IOWA DEAR TOO MUCH: Try something like this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mom, you are a generous sweetheart, but you are giving them too much stuff. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re inundated! There are toys in their rooms that have never been opened. It hurts me to see you spend money on items the boys donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use -- so please, cut back on the number of gifts, and before spending your hard-earned money, ask me what they can use.â&#x20AC;? (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O.

Creators Syndicate

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You appreciate how wonderful it is to be alive at a time when so many new ideas are developing around you. You are feeling connected to all who share this moment in history with you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Hop on board a trend, and have fun with it. This probably has to do with technology. It may not solve your problem or turn into any kind of long-term benefit at all. Still, you won’t be sorry you gave it a whirl. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you get the chance to tell people a little bit about you, focus on one area of life. You have so many goals that it will be difficult for people to understand the entire scope of them. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Think about the times in the past when you accidentally landed in the right place at the perfect time and said the magic words. Be convinced of your own good fortune, and you’ll attract more of it. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Not all who hear voices in their heads are schizophrenic. You know this is true, because you are a person of very sound mind and yet there is a guide in your mind who speaks in crystal-clear tones. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As you think about the task before you, you may get nervous. Your emotional response is normal. It shows how much you care. It doesn’t make you weak; it makes you human. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re still on the fence about whether to throw yourself into a new venture. You can always take the more cautious route of tiptoeing into it. Do go forward either way. The only people who really fail are those who never try. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your location will be an important consideration. Instead of going wherever your work takes you, consider a different approach. Go to the place you want to be, and then find work there. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You may have clashed with someone when first you met. You’ll benefit from giving this person another chance. Your natures are not so different, but your habits are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Beliefs that are not based in reality are called “delusions,” a word that has such a negative ring to it. But should it? Who is to say what reality is, anyway? Pick one delusion, and hold on tight. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a lot of good ideas, and now you need a plan. Whittle down your list. Pick three actionable items you can follow through on today. Action will bring you focus. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A relationship doesn’t have to be ailing to warrant attention. Fortunately, the No. 1 thing you can do to improve a relationship will also make you feel better: Care for yourself, and do a stellar job of it.

Public lines up for new low-cost appliance that slashes heat bills

Amish craftsmen vow to keep up with rush for brand-new Hybrid-Thermic™ ‘Miracle Heater’ that uses about the same energy as a coffee maker per hour, so just plug it in and never be cold again By: SAMUEL A. JAMES Universal Media Syndicate

(UMS) – Everyone hates high heat bills. But we’re all sick and tired of turning the thermostat down and freezing our buns off. That’s why Sears knew they had a home-run on their hands with the first-ever low-cost appliance with Hybrid-Thermic™ heat technology. And no other heater anywhere has it. The brand-new portable Heat Surge HT L.E.D. sips so little energy, you can run it all day or all night for just about a buck. This modern marvel, hailed as the ‘Miracle Heater,’ caused such a frenzy at Sears stores, one shopper refused to leave until she got one. Since there were none in stock, store managers were forced to hand over the store’s only floor model, against store policy. So today, immediate action is being taken to give more people, more ways to get them. Beginning at 8:30 a.m., today’s readers are allowed to phone in or snag one online. Heat Surge even posted a 2-Day Double Coupon which has been reprinted on this page for today’s readers to use. By using this coupon, everyone who calls is being rewarded with $198. That makes this remarkable new home appliance a real steal at just $398. The Double Coupon Deal also entitles you to free home delivery. So now everyone has a fair shot at getting one. “Folks are saving money everywhere with the new Heat Surge HT L.E.D.,” said Kris Rumel, the analyst tracking the impact Heat Surge is having on consumer heat bills. This all started when Sears wanted the world-famous ‘Amish Miracle Heater’ that everyone was asking for. The shy but now famous Amish craftsman said Sears made the most sense. “I’d reckon they’re the oldest and most trusted in the country,” one of the Amish craftsmen known as Melvin said. “We’ve been saving folks money, big money. And we know it because we’re hearin’ about it,” he said. “They know about our quality. No particle board, just real wood. Fullyassembled cabinets by our hands and we’re making them right here in the good ole USA,” Melvin said. Director of Technology David Martin explained, “The Heat Surge HT L.E.D. is a revolutionary appliance that can easily roll from room to room. But we didn’t want it to look like some metal box that just sits there. So we turned to our Amish craftsmen and now each one is made to look like a sleek, slim fireplace that has no real flames.” “The peaceful f licker of the ‘Fireless Flame’ is so beautiful, everyone thinks it’s real, but it’s totally safe to the touch. All you do is just plug it in,” Martin said. People from Maine to Mississippi and even Florida and Arizona are flocking to get them because they are finally able to give their central heat a rest during this long, frigid winter. According to the avalanche of consumer reviews, people absolutely swear by them, repeatedly saying, “it saves money,” “looks beautiful,” and “keeps you warm head to toe, floor to ceiling.” And the word is getting out. That’s why people are clamoring to get them. But Martin said right now the real problem is making sure the Amish craftsmen can keep up with the looming Christmas rush. That’s why the Double Coupon expires in two days. So for readers hoping to get the new Heat Surge for themselves and take care of Christmas gifts for others, there is good news. You can use the 2-Day Double Coupon more than once. But there is a catch. You can only get away with it for the next two days from the date of today’s publication by calling the National Appliance Center at 1-888-414-3620. Then, when it arrives, you’ll be rushing to turn down that thermostat. Just plug it in, watch your heat bills hit rock bottom, and never be cold again. N

N GOTTA HAVE ONE: People are flocking to Sears to get the brand-new Heat Surge HT L.E.D. An eager crowd remained respectful as Jonas Miller directs the

first deliveries. “I heard so much about the Amish Miracle Heater but couldn’t find where to get one,” an excited Mary Straughn said. That’s why a National Appliance Hotline has been set up for today’s readers who can’t rush out to get one. Readers who call the Hotline at 1-888-414-3620 will get free delivery and an extraordinary 2-Day Double Coupon that has been reprinted below.

It’s so always being cold. And as an early Christmas gift, we got one for the kids to help them with their heat bills,” Julia White said. safe, it’s where the kids will play & the pets will sleep.

How It Works: You get 74º of bone-soothing room heat even when the home thermostat is turned down to 59º with the first-ever Heat Surge HT L.E.D.

N MODERN MARVEL: The revolutionary Heat Surge HT L.E.D. micro-furnace fits in any room because it’s packed inside a small Amish-built cabinet that measures just 25” high, 32” wide, and 12” deep.

This is the revolutionary Heat Surge HT L.E.D., the first-ever appliance with Hybrid-Thermic™ heat technology. Hybrid-Thermic heat is an engineering genius so advanced, it actually uses a micro-furnace from the Coast of China and a thermal heat exchanger to perform its miracles. The thermal heat exchanger acts like the rays of the sun to heat you, the kids, the pets and everything else. The micro-furnace then heats all the surrounding air. Together, this Hybrid-Thermic heat warms both you and the air around you, taking care of all the cold spots. In fact, it actually produces Ortho-Thermic™, bone-soothing heat. This modern marvel uses just a trickle of electricity and saves you money based on a U.S. average that says it uses only about 9¢ of electricity an hour on the standard setting, yet it produces up to an amazing 4,606 British Thermal Units (BTU’s) on the high setting. But here’s the big surprise. It’s not just a metal box Home thermostat set at 59º that belongs in a basement. The Heat Surge HT L.E.D. is a showpiece in any room. That’s because it has the ambiance of a real fireplace, but it has no real flames. Its Fireless Flame® technology makes it safe to the touch. The portable Heat Surge HT L.E.D. comes installed in a genuine Amishbuilt wood cabinet made in the heartland of Ohio. They are hand-rubbed, stained, and varnished.

A Consumer Best Buy

An avalanche of unsolicited consumer reviews gives the company the reason to boast an overwhelming Consumer ‘Best Buy’ on the HeatReport.com website. Consumers should be aware of the fakes out there. This Hybrid-Thermic ‘Miracle Heater’ can never be found at Wal-Mart®, not at Lowe’s®, not at Home Depot®, and none of the Club Stores. “Accept no imitations. If it does not have the Heat Surge name on it, it is not real Amish and it is not Hybrid-Thermic™. I repeat, if it does not have the Heat Surge name on it, you are getting ripped off,” said Heat Surge Chief Compliance Officer, Bob Knowles. The Heat Surge has earned the coveted Underwriters Laboratories certification and is protected by a limited full year replacement or money back warranty and 30-day Satisfaction Guarantee.
