The Pig returns to town Allen criticizes news media after robbery

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

The decision to bring back a familiar name to the Crossroads area is good news for those shopping for groceries.

The Pig is back in the grocery market after an absence of 12 years. Piggly Wiggly will open for business on Wednesday, Nov. 2 in the same building of the former Save-aLot store on Harper Road at U.S. 72 at the end of Harper Square Mall.

Piggly Wiggly had been an institution as a grocery retailer for many years in Corinth until closing in 1999. The return of The Pig is expected to be well received by consumers in the Crossroads area market.

The store will be open from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday-Saturday and from 10 a.m.-8 p.m. on Sunday.

“We (store owners) believe that bringing in the Piggly Wiggly brand will be superior to what we had in our other store,” said Charles Carson. “We will have the Piggy Wiggly brand of products and will have them at Sav-aLot low prices.”

Carson, with over 40 years of experience in the grocery business, is one of three owners in the Corinth store and many other grocery stores. The other partners are Duran Barnes and W.T. Carson, Charles’ brother.

Workers take down the Sav-A-Lot store sign this week to make way for Piggly Wiggly signage.

The trio own Piggly Wiggly stores in Henderson, Tenn., Savannah, Tenn., Adamsville, Tenn., Bruce, Miss. and Cherokee, Ala. The partnership closed Sav-a-Lot on Sunday night with the idea of getting the building ready for the change to Piggly Wiggly. Sav-a-Lot opened in Corinth in 2004.

A new service to begin at Piggly Wiggly will be having a store employee in the parking lot to load the groceries for the customers.

Carson explained Piggly Wiggly store owners own a distribution center as a cooperative and that allows their stores to maintain low prices. The co-op is based in Birmingham, Ala. and serves over 300 Piggly Wiggly stores.

Parents upset over teen strip searches Staff, wire reports

SENATOBIA — Parents of three Mississippi teenagers are demanding answers after the teens were strip searched for trespassing.

Cliff Johnson, the attorney for the three teens, told WMC-TV in Memphis Wednesday that children who have never committed a crime should not have received such harsh treatment.

Johnson said a complaint from a neighbor prompted police to pick up the three 15-year-olds and take them to the Senatobia Police Station.

There, Tate County Youth Referee Leigh Ann Darby insisted the children be given a drug test. The teens were later driven to the Alcorn County Youth Detention Please see SEARCH | 5A

Hosemann to Crossroads residents: Get out and vote

BY ANGELA STOREY astorey@dailycorinthian.com

People need to get out to vote on Tuesday, Nov. 8. That’s the message Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann wants Mississippians to remember.

During a recent visit to the Crossroads area, Hosemann shared some information about the upcoming general election Nov. 8.

In the area, he noted the ballot has not only statewide offices but that of local legislative

races along with several county races to determine.

“We want everyone to get out and vote,” he said.

Additionally, there will be three initiative measures on the ballot.

“This is the first time in Mississippi history we’ve ever had three constitutional initiatives on the ballot,” said Hosemann.

The three initiatives appearing on the Nov. 8 ballot address basic constitutional issues: the integrity of our voting (voter

identification); the definition of when life begins; and government’s right to seize private property for non-public use.

“Voter identification has been discussed in Mississippi for over a decade. It is whether or not a person should be required to submit a government voter ID in order to vote,” said Hosemann.

On the ballot, Initiative Measure No. 27 reads: Should the Mississippi Constitution be amended to require a person to

submit government issued photo identification in order to vote?

This would amend the Mississippi Constitution to require voters to submit a government issued photo identification before being allowed to vote; provides that any voter lacking government issued photo identification may obtain photo identification without charge from the Mississippi Department of Public Safety; and exempts certain residents of

state-licensed care facilities and religious objectors from being required to show photo identification in order to vote.

Another initiative on the ballot is Initiative #26 — Definition of ‘Person,’ commonly referred to as the Personhood Amendment.

It reads on the ballot: Should the term ‘person’ be defined to include very human being Please see HOSEMANN | 2A

The stark political differences between the two major factions engaged in America’s political debate were on display Thursday at Northeast Mississippi Community College as a pair of activists from each side of the political divide debated the issues.

Liberal political activist and political consultant James Hull faced off against Tea Party supporter, author and radio host Dr. Ed Holliday in the debate hosted by the NEMCC Cultural Arts Committee and the Phi Theta Kappa college honor society.

HOSEMANN: Secretary of state urges voters to visit website to see what others have said about issues CONTINUED FROM 1A

from the moment of fertilization, cloning, or the equivalent thereof?

The third, Initiative #31, involves Eminent Domain.

It reads on the ballot: Should government be prohibited from taking private property by eminent domain and then transferring it to other persons?

“This initiative has had a number of discussions in the Tupelo area with some economic development groups arguing that Toyota wouldn’t have been able to build their plant if the state had not had access to eminent domain,” said Hosemann.

“Others, led by Mississippi Farm Bureau, have argued that eminent domain should never apply for non-public purposes ... only for public purposes such as roads, water systems, etc.”

It would amend the state constitution to prohibit state and local government from taking private property by eminent domain and then conveying it to other persons or private businesses for a period of 10 years after acquisition.

Exceptions from the prohibition include drainage and levee facili-

ties, roads, bridges, ports, airports, common carriers, and utilities. The prohibition would not apply in certain situations, including public nuisance, structures unfit for human habitation, or abandoned property.

Hosemann says it is critical voters be informed on these significant constitutional issues.

“If these initiatives pass, they will become part of the Mississippi Constitution. And they are very basic rights — the right to vote, right to life and government’s right to take property for nonpublic purpose.”

He urges voters to visit the Secretary of State website to read what their fellow Mississippians have said about each of these issues.

“The statements are well thought out, heartfelt on each of the initiatives, and spoken or written by your fellow members of the community who very rarely speak in public. It’s just our every day citizens voicing their opinions on three critical issues. I think our voters will find this of great interest to see both sides of these issues.”

DEBATE: Both candidates say they have significantly different ideas about how the country should be run CONTINUED FROM 1A

ism and work, both men serve as columnists for the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal and face off on the issues each month in a column published by the newspaper.

While both men emphasized they are good friends, they said they have significantly different ideas about how the country should be run.

One of the clearest divisions came on economic policy when they were asked about the potential for the economic development and job creation plan proposed recently by President Barack Obama.

Hull said he thinks the bill has potential, but there needs to be more focus on

improving education and funding job training.

“I think it’s a good start, but as a political consultant I just don’t trust politicians,” he said.

Hull said he believes community colleges need to receive greater funding to boost their role in training people for the jobs that are available. He said he is adamantly opposed to any proposal by Republicans to cut taxes on corporations to encourage job creation.

“These folks are not creating jobs y’all, they’re taking the excess profits and putting the excess profits in their pockets,” he said.

Holliday, however, argued the president’s proposal is similar to the

stimulus plan passed two years ago which he said didn’t truly result in an economic recovery.

“I think it’s a far left radical idea,” he said.

The conservative author and radio host pointed to what he described as the success of President Ronald Reagan’s tax cuts on corporations and high-income individuals in the 1980s. He argued the tax cut worked by pumping money into the economy that was used to create jobs that resulted in more people working and paying taxes.

“You don’t raise taxes, you create more taxpayers,” said Holliday.

Both speakers expressed support for increased spending on education and the impor-

tance of ensuring proper funding for higher education, particularly at the community college level.

Holliday said he attended community college and has seen the impact the colleges can have on the workforce by providing essential training not offered anywhere else. He encouraged those in the audience to push their legislators to make sure these institutions are funded.

Hull said he also believes in providing more funding for education at this level. He said the issue is really where the government sets its priorities. He said he believes the state should focus more of its resources on improving educational opportunities and less on providing tax

breaks and other incentives to corporations.

In answer to a question from the audience about Proposition 26, popularly known as the “personhood initiative”, which will appear on the state’s general election ballot on Nov. 8 and would change the state’s constitution to define any fertilized egg as a life, Holliday expressed strong support for the measure while Hull said he remains neutral on the issue.

Holliday said he is strongly opposed to abortion and has heard reassurances by those in the state legislature that any potential problems the law might create for medical doctors can be corrected through later legislation. He said he

supports the measure.

Hull said he is opposed to abortion as a matter of principle, but believes it is wrong for the government to legislate what a woman can do with her own body.

He said he also believes the proposition was deliberately added to the ballot this year to drive conservative turnout during an election in which a popular Republican governor is stepping down and there is a hotly contested race to fill the open seat.

Holliday argued against that assertion, stating he is familiar with many of the people behind the push to place the proposition on the ballot and does not believe there was a political agenda behind the effort.

Mankind given free will, choices

BY CHARLES MYERS Did God put the fruit of the tree beyond the reach of Adam and Eve to prevent them from making a mistake they would regret and condemn mankind to death?

No, God gave mankind free will to choose between good and evil.

Hundreds of thousands of Mississippians have seen my name not because I desired it but the newspapers required it to print my advertisements. I have published sections of the code of Mississippi referenced by Yeson26.net, vital statistical data from the Mississippi Department of Health, percentages of problem pregnancies, numbers of abortions in Mississippi, demographic percentages and more to convince voters that the implementation of Initiative 26 could very well cause more deaths than the lives it will save.

Thank God for Mrs. X, a person who intends to vote “Yes.” Her letter took a half hour to read and enlightened me tremendously as to the reasoning of a lot of Mississippians.

Quoting scripture she explained it is our duty as Christians to stop this abomination called abortion. She states those women who have been misled into having an abortion always suffer remorse and regret. That the sacrifice of those who have problem pregnancies would serve a greater purpose and I need to trust in the legislature to correct problems with the law. Mrs. X stated children of rape and incest are God’s children too and should not be executed for the sins of the father.

This is an amendment to the Mississippi constitution and the legislators cannot correct the no-exceptions aspect or modify it in any way. For it to hold up to the constitutionality test of the U.S. Constitution it has to be nondiscriminating and the crafty devils who engineered it know that. It will make all abortions homicide, even the ones to save the mother’s life. My wife would be in that 5 percent of women who are to be sacrificed in the future.

My two children and myself are glad she is still around and was here to give birth to them.

I totally object to requiring a 12- or 13-yearold girl who was knocked up by her no count father having to ruin her body and her life carrying this baby to term.

I was taught and still believe it is our Christian duty is to lead by example and teach, not to force others to do good deeds against his or her free will. I do not want to stand on my judgment day and say, “Lord, Lord, did we not force our will upon millions in your name?”

Are the Christian people of Mississippi so enlightened quoting scripture and verse to support their cause that they ignore the shining examples set by Our Lord Jesus Christ?

I believe the blood of the innocent today is on the hands of those who take the lives of the innocent. I will not share in the blood of the innocent and guilt for the difficulties this may cause by voting “Yes.” I am compelled to vote “No” because I do not believe I have the authority to override the principles set down in the Garden of Eden by our Creator. Additionally I believe it is for the best of humanity that I vote “No.” (Charles Myers is a resident of Shannon.)

Sound Off Training in wrong place?

There are several of us who agree out in the Theo area that the fire department may need to train but not right on the side of U.S. 72 highway. It upset a lot of people thinking that someone was killed in the automobile accident and then found out the next day it was training for the fire department.

The training is very good but it seems it does not need to be right on the side of a main highway. Maybe it could be on one of the county roads where it would not be as dangerous. One reason is there was a lot of people stopping to see if anyone was hurt which could have caused a real wreck by people pulling off to the road side.

So maybe next time the fire department trains, they will consider these statements.

We do want to say that our Union CenterTheo fire department does a very good job.

Imogene Stanley CR 742, Walnut

Prayer for today Dear Father God, help us to stay close to you through prayer and through studying your word. Guide us to pray as if our life depends on it -- because it does. Amen.

A verse to share O Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and ... full redemption.

– Psalm 130:7 (NIV)

Obama gets no credit for protecting nation

BY ROGER SIMON “Domestic policy can only defeat us,” John F. Kennedy used to say. “Foreign policy can kill us.”

Times change. Barack Obama is having a lot more success at foreign policy than domestic policy, but few seem willing to give him credit for this.

Obama just won a war.

Whether by leading from behind, in front or sideways, the victory by the Libyan rebels in toppling Moammar Gadhafi would have been impossible without U.S. money, more than 5,000 U.S. missions flown, 1,200 airstrikes, 100 Predator strikes and even B-2 Stealth bomber attacks launched from Missouri.

We also had CIA agents on the ground, but we’ll probably never know what they did. America did not act alone — we acted with NATO — but a win is a win, and Obama’s victory did not cost this country a single U.S. life.

This has created a political problem for the Republican candidates swarming to run against Obama. As TalkingPointsMemo put it: “Top Republicans are starting to weigh in on Moammar Gadhafi’s death, and one consistent theme is quickly emerging: Barack who?”

Then there is the matter of Obama’s fulfilling his campaign promise to pull out of Iraq, ending U.S. involvement in a war launched by a George W. Bush fantasy —

that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction -- which cost us about $1 trillion (the figure is in dispute), more than 36,000 U.S. troops killed or wounded and more than 100,000 Iraqi civilians killed.

The cost of the Iraq War will continue to grow in terms of health care costs for returning vets, and —bizarrely — for maintaining the largest and most expensive U.S. embassy in the world in Baghdad.

According to Fox News: “The 104-acre compound, bigger than the Vatican and about the size of 80 football fields, boasts 21 buildings, a commissary, cinema, retail and shopping areas, restaurants, schools, a fire station, power and water-treatment plants, as well as telecommunications and wastewater treatment facilities. The compound is six times larger than the United Nations compound in New York and two-thirds the size of the National Mall in Washington.”

The $700 million building was dedicated on Jan. 5, 2009 — 15 days before Obama took office, so you can’t blame him — and is the perfect symbol of the political party of the administration that built it: a gigantic white elephant.

While some U.S. troops will be required to defend the gargantuan embassy, President Obama will no longer be stuffing them willy-nilly into the meat grinder of a war that served main-

ly to remove troops from Afghanistan, where we were trying to destroy al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden.

Oh, yeah. Almost forgot that one. Obama launched a daring raid into Pakistan to kill bin Laden in May. And let’s not forget the killing of master terrorist Anwar alAwlaki in September in Yemen with a drone-launched Hellfire missile, or the rescue of an American sea captain from Somali pirates by Navy SEALS in April 2009.

Obama has projected an image of strength to the world and has sent a message to terrorists who threaten the United States that they cannot seek safe haven anywhere.

The media assessment of this has been a nearly universal, “Who cares?”

Here are just a few headlines: Christian Science Monitor: “Obama’s National Security Record Not Much Political Help for Him.” PBS NewsHour: “Why the End of Gadhafi May Not Help Obama.”

New York Times: “Successes Overseas Are Unlikely to Help Obama at Home.”

A few paragraphs from The New York Times story pretty much sums up all the stories: “Still, there is little doubt the election will be dominated by the economy and the weak job market, where the president is dealing with a steady drip of bad news and scant hope of improve-

ment before Election Day. “‘Foreign affairs is important, but when placed against the scale of the problem with jobs and the economy, it’s dwarfed,’ said David Winston, a Republican strategist. ‘It’s the equivalent of a house on fire: He’s fixing the window while the rest of the house is burning down.’”

That latter quote conveys pretty much the opposite of what John Kennedy said.

To Kennedy, it was foreign crises that could burn our houses down, literally, through nuclear attack.

It is curious, today, however, that after having two giant towers burned down in Manhattan, the Pentagon smashed into and an airliner downed all in one day just 10 years ago, that safeguarding America is reduced to the equivalent of “fixing the window.”

The articles make the same point: Obama’s poll numbers remain low and the economy remains bad, and that’s all that will count come November 2012.

That may be correct. Domestic policy may defeat Obama. And he knows it.

I am guessing Barack Obama would rather create jobs than kill terrorists right now. But sometimes the world doesn’t let you have your first choice.

(Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico. com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)

Obama’s later-day McGovernism isn’t pretty W h e n President B a r a c k Obama took the podium last Friday to abruptly anRich nounce the Lowry imminent end of the National Iraq War, he Review ended on a ringing McGovernite note: “After a decade of war, the nation that we need to build -- and the nation that we will build -is our own.”

Come home, America: Deficit spending, solar subsidies and a millionaire’s tax are beckoning you. Come home, America: To the comforts of an infrastructure bank and yet more aid to states and localities. Come home, America: To the challenge of fighting tax breaks for Big Oil and corporate jets, and malign corporate influence wherever it is found.

The Obama at that podium was the same as the Obama of the Democratic primaries, with his heedlessly irresponsible commitment to a hasty retreat from Iraq. Back then, he was only

capable of vaporous posturing. Now, he’s president of the United States and has pulled the plug on the Iraq War in what will surely be a boost to Iran, which mere weeks after the revelation of its plot to kill the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. on our soil gets a strategic windfall on its doorstep.

President Obama went out of his way to note that in Afghanistan, too, we’ll begin drawing down soon. We could be looking at slowmotion defeats in two wars -- and a drastic diminution in our influence in the Middle East and Central Asia -as the president of the United States prefers to focus on the fierce urgency of his spendthrift policy at home.

In the contest between guns and butter, he wants butter so long as he can hector the rich to pay for it.

After the rebuke of the 2010 election, the natural play for Obama was to drift to the center to erase memories of his first two years.

He’d execute a version of the presidency-saving turnabout of President Bill Clinton after 1994. But Obama is now to the left of where he was on Election Day

2010. He’s taken his cues less from Clinton than from Howard Dean.

He favors a stimulus that, in terms of its cost in the first year, is larger than the one in 2009. He supports more taxes on the rich than ever. He used to favor letting the Bush tax cuts on upper-income people expire; now, he wants a layer of new taxes on top of that to pay for his second stimulus. He is opposed to serious entitlement reform and is hell on the modern-day alleged “malefactors of great wealth.”

Shrewder liberal analysts welcomed the Occupy Wall Street movement as a way to re-center Obama by creating a significant political force to his left. That gambit failed. The Democratic Party, including the White House, has sounded so sympathetic to Occupy Wall Street, there isn’t much room for critical distance.

Perhaps none of this should be surprising since the Democrats, despite the Clinton interlude, never stopped being a McGovernite party, and Obama is a McGovernite figure. Even if he wanted to get to the

center, it’s not clear he could thrive there with the economy so flat and with his base dispirited. In recent months, he has been in thrall to his core supporters. They wanted him to take entitlement reform off the table; he obliged. They wanted him to become an angry, populist crusader; he fired up the campaign bus. They wanted him to propose another stimulus; he’s made “pass it now” his mantra. They wanted him to get out of Iraq; after a breakdown in negotiations with Iraqis, he bragged of fulfilling his promise to bug out entirely.

If Obama’s left turn isn’t ideally suited to appeal to independents, he hopes to win just enough of them over to his side by carpetbombing the eventual Republican nominee. He’ll have vast resources for a campaign that will make the epically nasty Harry Truman of 1948 look tame by comparison. McGovernism in extremis isn’t pretty.

The memo said the college would release “an appropriate amount of information without harming the criminal case against the guilty party or parties” when the investigation is complete.

“I suspect the final story will serve to correct many of the errors made by those too hurried to report responsibly,” wrote Allen.

He also told Northeast personnel not to make the situation worse “by adding to the controversy with additional speculation.”

Allen didn’t mention any specific media, but did state “this situation is made worse when those in the print media repeat the original reports without attempting to verify the accuracy of the reports.”

No arrest has been made in the case.

Briefs School of Nursing building becomes top priority

Associated Press

Man gets 10 years in bicyclist’s death

HATTIESBURG — The University of Southern Mississippi will again ask lawmakers for $10 million for a new School of Nursing building.

The Hattiesburg American reports that funds are being sought for the second year in a row. USM sought $15 million last year, which was turned down by lawmakers.

USM officials say the building is a top priority.

Estimated to cost just under $30 million overall, the nursing project is also in the silent phase of a private fundraising campaign that hopes to raise $8 million.

School officials hope that the threestory, 75,000-square-foot structure will ease the space issues confronting the current 40,000-square-foot building on the Hattiesburg campus. Â

JACKSON — A Mississippi man convicted of being high on morphine when his vehicle struck and killed a Dutch bicyclist on a highway was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in prison.

Wendell Blount’s sentencing came more than two years after the death of 51-yearold Esther Hageman of Leiden, Netherlands. Hageman was a veteran journalist for one of the Netherlands’ major newspapers, Trouw.

Prosecutors say Blount was under the influence of morphine when his SUV struck Hageman on April 22, 2009, on the Natchez Trace Parkway near Houston, Miss.

Blount of Calhoun County was convicted of manslaughter in April 2010, but authorities said he fled house arrest to avoid sentencing. He was captured in October 2010 in Baton Rouge, La. Legal wrangling in the case added more delays to the sentencing.

Blount’s attorney was out of the office and did not immediately respond to a call Thursday.

U.S. District Judge Allen Pepper sentenced Blount during a hearing in federal court in Greenville. The Natchez Trace Parkway is part of the National Parks system so Hageman’s death was prosecuted in federal court.

The prison sentence will be followed by five years on supervised release.

The U.S. Attorney’s office said in a news release that the time will begin after Blount finishes serving a sentence for another conviction. Â

Man indicted for bank robbery OXFORD — A Tupelo man faces a three count federal indictment over the armed robbery of a bank in September.

WTVA-TV reports that 23-year-old Cory Juwan Baker faces charges of bank robbery by force, unlawful transport of firearms, and use of a weapon in the commission of a violent crime.

On Wednesday, he pleaded not guilty to the charges in an appearance in federal court in Oxford.

Baker is charged with the robbery of the M&F Bank in Tupelo on Sept. 9.

He is being held without bond in the Lafayette County Detention Center.

No trial date has been set. Â

Pearl gets $150,000 for project

Gov. Chris Christie helps campaign for Phil Bryant

PEARL — The city of Pearl will received $150,000 in transportation enhancement funds for a landscaping and scenic beautification along U.S. Highway 80.

The project was announced Thursday

by Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall.

Hall says MDOT will oversee the spending of the money.

Transportation Enhancement projects are to improve the cultural, historic, aesthetic and environmental aspects of an area’s transportation infrastructure.

Hall says the project in Pearl will greatly enhance the appearance of the entire section of the city.

JACKSON — The Republican nominee for Mississippi governor is getting campaign help next week from New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

Christie and Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour are scheduled to appear at a get-out-the-vote rally for Phil Bryant. It’s set for 5 p.m. Nov. 3 at Hinds Community College in the Jackson suburb of Pearl.

Bryant faces Democrat Johnny DuPree in the Nov. 8 gubernatorial election. The winner of the two-man race takes office Jan. 10.

Medical personnel split on ‘life’ ballot initiative

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — A group of health professionals, including a physician who does in vitro fertilization, say a Mississippi ballot initiative could cause government interference in medical decisions now made by doctors and patients.

Initiative 26 will appear on the Nov. 8 ballot. It seeks to declare that life begins when a human egg is fertilized.

Dr. Randall Hines of Jackson, an IFV specialist, joined about 20 medical workers Thursday at a “Doctors Against 26� news conference at the state Capitol. Among them were obstetrician-gynecologists, pediatricians and nurses. “We don’t need the state government to help us decide how to take care of our patients,� Hines said. “We have our patients’ best interests at heart, and we want our patients to decide what is best for them. We do not need a judge or a legislator deciding that for us.�

Among the physicians supporting the “personhood� initiative is Dr. Freda Bush, an obstetrician-gynecologist in Jackson. She has said opponents are using scare tactics and she believes the measure would help protect women and babies. “It will begin to restore a culture of life from conception to natural death,� Bush said at a news conference in September, where she was joined by several ob-gyns and nurses. “What will personhood accomplish?� Bush said. “Simply, it will acknowledge the pre-born as a person by love and by law.

Still, come Nov. 8, Ikerd said she will vote for Initiative 27, a proposed constitutional amendment that would require every person voting in Mississippi to show a driver’s license or other government-issued photo ID at the polls.

Ikerd said she would have no problem showing her ID and she believes that in larger cities such as Jackson and Tupelo, where people move in or out more frequently, some might try to pass themselves off as others to cast a ballot. In those cases, she said ID would be a good deterrent.

Supporters say the voter ID initiative is a commonsense proposal to help protect the integrity of elections by preventing people from casting ballots in others’ names, or even from voting in the names of dead people.

Opponents say that in Mississippi, where black citizens were violently blocked from voting decades ago, requiring ID is tantamount to setting a poll tax that could diminish minority turnout and disenfranchise the poor.

The National Conference of State Legislatures says 30 states require all voters to show ID at the

later.

Supporters of the initiative say that if it passes, they expect it to be challenged in court and that challenge could become an attempt to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that established a legal right to abortion.

The initiative is endorsed by both candidates in a governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also being decided Nov. 8, Republican Phil Bryant and Democrat Johnny DuPree.

While Mississippi is the only state with a life-at-fertilization amendment on the ballot this fall, efforts are under way to put the question to voters in at least four other states in 2012 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Florida, Montana, Ohio and Oregon.

The Mississippi State Medical Association says it is not supporting the initiative, a step short of actively opposing it.

Medical groups opposing the initiative are the Mississippi chapter of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, the Mississippi Nurses Association House of Delegates.

Nsombi Lambright, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi, said that in poor, rural areas, many people might lack any form of governmentissued photo ID. She also worries a voter ID law would be applied unevenly, and perhaps unfairly, by poll workers who might not be well trained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Voter ID is one of those unnecessary barriers to the voting booth,â&#x20AC;?

Lambright told The Associated Press on Thursday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to represent a strong deterrent for communities of color, for the elderly and for poor folks to go to the ballot box.â&#x20AC;?

Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, a Republican who is Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top elections official, said he supports the voter ID ballot initiative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We in Mississippi need to step away from where we were 50 years ago.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made a great deal of progress,â&#x20AC;? Hosemann told AP. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A commonsense voter ID to enforce the integrity of the voting for every Mississippian makes sense.â&#x20AC;?

State lawmakers argued about voter ID for more than 15 years before Republican Sen. Joey Fillingane of Sumrall started the petition drive that put the proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot.

Mississippi law says that if any initiative passes, it would take effect 30 days later. But the process could take longer for voter ID, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no guarantee it would ever be implemented.

Because of Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history of racial discrimination, the U.S. Justice Department must approve any changes to the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s election laws to ensure the changes donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dilute minority voting strength. Officials say they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t predict whether the Justice Department would approve a voter ID requirement in Mississippi.

Wayward pooch, owner reunited ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. — Petey the wayward Jack Russell terrier is home.

After three months and hundreds of miles, the dog was reunited Thursday with owner Jim Arrighi in Erin, Tenn.

Arrighi’s daughter, Tyanne Morrison, said Petey arrived in the care of a Michigan Humane Society volunteer who set out Wednesday from suburban Detroit.

Morrison said her 73-year-old father “actually just cried” when he got the dog back.

Arrighi left Petey in his backyard in July and the dog was gone when he returned home.

A homeowner in Rochester Hills, about 20 miles north of Detroit, saw Petey last week in his backyard and took him to a Humane Society animal care center.

Arrighi was identified as the owner when the dog was scanned for an implanted microchip.

5-year-old backs car onto street MANSFIELD, Ohio — Authorities say a 5-yearold looking for her mother in Ohio backed a car out of the driveway, then called 911 for help.

Mansfield police say Ameleah Kegley backed the car out Monday evening after returning from school to an empty house.

According to the Mansfield News Journal, her mother had gone to the hospital with an emergency and her father never got the message.

Worried that her mother wasn’t home, Ameleah decided to look for her and started her mother’s 1999 Lincoln Navigator. It backed down the sloped driveway and came to a stop on grass across the street.

The girl dialed 911, explained the situation and asked for quick help getting the car back home, because she said her mom would be upset with her.

Summer growth calms recession fears WASHINGTON — A summer of modest economic growth is helping dispel lingering fears that another recession might be near.

Whether the strength can be sustained is less certain.

The economy grew at an annual rate of 2.5 percent in the JulySeptember quarter, the Commerce Department said Thursday. But the growth was fueled by Americans who spent more while earning less and by businesses that invested in machines and computers, not workers.

The expansion, the best quarterly growth in a year, came as a relief after anemic growth in the first half of the year, weeks of wild stock market shifts and the weakest consumer confidence since the height of the Great Recession.

The economy would have to grow at nearly double the third-quarter pace to make a dent in the unemployment

rate, which has stayed near 9 percent since the recession officially ended more than two years ago.

For the more than 14 million Americans who are out of work and want a job, that’s discouraging news. And for President Barack Obama and incumbent members of Congress, it means they’ll be facing voters with unemployment near 9 percent.

“It is still a very weak economy out there,” said David Wyss, former chief economist at Standard & Poor’s.

For now, the report on U.S. gross domestic product, or GDP, sketched a more optimistic picture for an economy that only two months ago seemed at risk of another recession.

And it came on the same day that European leaders announced a deal in which banks would take 50 percent losses on Greek debt and raise new capital to protect against defaults on sovereign debt.

Stocks surged on the European deal and maintained their gains after the report on U.S. growth was released.

The Dow Jones rose 340 points to close at 12,209. The Dow hadn’t closed above 12,000 since Aug. 1.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index is close to having its best month since 1974.

Rich get richer, outpace middle class WASHINGTON — The richest 1 percent of Americans have been getting far richer over the last three decades while the middle class and poor have seen their after-tax household income only crawl up in comparison, according to a government study.

After-tax income for the top 1 percent of U.S. households almost tripled, up 275 percent, from 1979 to 2007, the Congressional Budget Office found. For people in the middle of the economic scale, after-tax income grew by just 40 percent. Those at the bottom experienced an 18 percent increase.

The report, based on IRS and Census Bureau data, comes as the Occupy Wall Street movement protests corporate bailouts and the gap between the haves and have-nots.

Demonstrators call themselves “the 99 percent.”

Deficit-cutting panel checks benefits, taxes

BY DAVID ESPO AND ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Rival deficit-cutting plans advanced by Republicans and Democrats on Congress’ secretive supercommittee would both mean smallerthan-expected cost of living benefit increases for veterans and federal retirees as well as Social Security recipients and bump up taxes for some individuals and families, according to officials familiar with the recommendations.

In all, the changes would reduce deficits by an estimated $200 billion over a decade, a fraction of the committee’s minimum goal of $1.2 trillion in savings.

A final decision by the panel on legislation to reduce deficits is still a few weeks off, and given the political difficulties involved, there is no certainty that the six Republicans and six Democrats will be able to agree.

The two sides exchanged initial offers earlier this week, and each side swiftly found fault with the others’ proposal in the privacy of the committee’s rooms as well as in public.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, not-

“Let’s understand over the next 10 years, we’re going to spend $10 trillion on Medicaid. I just think there’s a lot more room there to help find common ground.”

House Speaker John Boehner R-Ohio ing published reports that Democrats are seeking $3 trillion in higher taxes, said, “This is the same number that was in the president’s budget, the same number that — that they — I don’t know that they found any Democrats in the House and Senate to vote for.”

“I don’t think it’s a reasonable number,” he said.

Boehner also chided Democrats for recommending $50 billion in savings from Medicaid over the next decade, well below what Republicans are seeking.

“Let’s understand over the next 10 years, we’re going to spend $10 trillion on Medicaid. I just think there’s a lot more room there to help find common ground,” he said.

At the same time, Boehner emphasized, “I am committed to getting to an outcome” that clears the

Medicare premiums up, but not as much as expected Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Good news for seniors: The government says Medicare’s basic monthly premium will rise less than expected next year, by $3.50 for most.

It could be good, too, for President Barack Obama and Democrats struggling for older Americans’ votes in a close election.

At $99.90 per month, the 2012 Part B premium for outpatient care will be about $7 less than projected as recently as May. The additional money that most seniors will pay works out to about 10 percent of the average Social Security cost-of-living increase they’ll also be due.

Some recently enrolled younger retirees will actually pay less. They were charged $115.40 a month this year, and they’ll see that go down to $99.90.

The main reason for lower-than-expected premiums seems to be the connection between Social Security COLAs and Medicare. Some also cite a moderation in health care costs.

But the Obama administration is hoping seniors will get a simpler takeaway message: Medicare is under sound management.

Older voters went for Republicans in the 2010 elections, after Obama’s health care overhaul law cut Medicare spending to help

finance coverage for the uninsured. Since then, the administration has worked hard to reverse any perception that Obama is steering Medicare into decline.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said it’s “pretty remarkable” that premiums will stay in check. She reassured seniors that they have nothing to fear from the health care law.

“Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, Medicare is providing better benefits at lower cost,” said Sebelius.

Republicans weren’t buying it.

A spokeswoman for Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah said the brunt of the health law’s Medicare cuts are still to come. “More importantly,” added Antonia Ferrier, “lower Medicare premiums are being driven by lower than average Medicare spending due to the slow economy” — not the health care law. Hatch is the ranking Republican on the Senate panel overseeing Medicare.

committee and Congress.

The speaker negotiated privately with President Barack Obama over the summer in deficit-reduction talks that failed to produce an agreement.

At a news conference of her own, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California said she wanted a compromise that was “big, bold and balanced,” a phrase that Democrats use to convey an insistence on higher tax revenue.

She pointedly declined to embrace what Democrats had presented to the supercommittee. She called it “Sen. Baucus’ package,” a reference to the Montana Democrat and chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. That ran directly counter to his aides’ statements earlier in the week that he was speaking for a majority of Democrats on

the panel — and tacit confirmation that at least two of the party’s members had not signed on as supporters.

Ironically, while the Republican and Democratic panel members remain far apart, one of the relatively few items in common was a potentially controversial recommendation to change the calculation for annual cost-of-living increases in federal programs as well as the yearly adjustments in income tax brackets.

According to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, the recommended change “produces lower estimates of inflation than the traditional” measurement of the Consumer Price Index. Since December 2000 the difference on average has amounted to 0.3 percentage points, according to the agency.

A decision to base annual cost of living increases on the new calculation would lower Social Security costs by $108 billion over a decade, and the impact on benefits for federal civilian and military pension programs and veterans’ benefits would save an additional $23 billion, according to calculations made in February 2010.

Trio of squads lead top-heavy SEC

BY JOHN ZENOR The Associated Press

HOOVER, Ala. — Kevin Stallings will withhold his assessment of the Kentucky Wildcats until, say, February.

He’s plenty familiar with star forward Terrence Jones and probably knows a good bit about Doron Lamb and Darius Miller, too. No assessment of John Calipari’s Wildcats is ever complete without taking the full measure of those ballyhooed freshmen that annually parade into Lexington and often become instant stars before turning into NBA millionaires.

“I don’t know anything about his team, they’re all freshmen,” Stallings said Thursday at Southeastern Conference media day. “Or a lot of them are freshmen. I know Terrence Jones is good. All

those guys coming back from his team a year ago are good. The other guys, I don’t want to know about them yet. I’ll know about them when we have to start preparing for them.”

Those could be quite the showdowns Feb. 11 and Feb. 25 if preseason projections pan out. Kentucky is favored to win the SEC title after making a Final Four run last season. The Commodores and Florida also might just find themselves in the top 10, and teams such as Alabama and Mississippi State figure to be pretty good, too.

However, the Wildcats are no longer what qualify as “underdogs” in Lexington. The Gators lived up to their top billing in winning last season’s title and were among the final eight teams standing in the NCAA tournament.

Now, Kentucky opens as the team to beat.

“This is its own team. Last year’s team, we had a whole different role than we have this year,” said Jones, who averaged 15.7 points and a league-high 8.8 rebounds as a freshman. “Last year, us being more of an underdog, (we had to) go out and prove what we had to do every game and tournament.

“I think this year’s team will be one of the top dog teams and are expected to win, and go out there and get it. It’s going to be two different teams with two different situations, but we’ll have to go out there and get the wins the same way.”

Road to Perfection Aggies out to complete unbeaten regular season

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

KOSSUTH — The task isn’t complete.

Kossuth has one more hurdle to clear.

The Aggies’ goal of an undefeated regular season has only Holly Springs standing in the way. KHS (9-0, 4-0 in 1-3A) can accomplish the objective tonight when they entertain the Hawks at Larry B. Mitch-

ell Stadium.

“The kids have been great, but they know we haven’t completed the mission we set out to do,” said Kossuth Head Coach Brian Kelly. “We are treating this like a playoff game. Now is the time to play each week like it’s your last week.”

Kelly and his Aggies can become only the third Kossuth team in the past 55 seasons to finish the regular season without a loss. Only Odell Rutherford’s 1957 unit and the 1998 team -- which Kelly was a part of as a senior linebacker -- led

Razorbacks hope Johnson can spark running game

BY KURT VOIGT The Associated Press

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Knile Davis carried Arkansas to its first BCS bowl game last season.

The running back’s breakout performance in the second half of the season directly coincided with a six-game winning streak that propelled the Razorbacks into the Sugar Bowl.

No. 8 Arkansas (6-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) has struggled with the running game this season following Davis’ season-ending ankle injury in the preseason. However, the

Razorbacks are hopeful junior Dennis Johnson’s career-best 160 yards rushing in a win over Mississippi last week might provide the springboard for a Davis-like finish to the season.

And in turn help book a return BCS trip.

Arkansas, which visits Vanderbilt (4-3, 1-3) on Saturday, leads the SEC in total offense with 462.1 yards per game.

Only 140.3 yards of that comes on the ground, though. That’s 10th in the league, and the Razorbacks are still stinging from a 19-carry, 17-yard rushing per-

formance as a team in a loss to No. 2 Alabama on Sept. 24.

Against Ole Miss, Arkansas fell behind 17-0 early and its passing game struggled to find a rhythm while the Rebels dominated time of possession in the first half.

Enter Johnson — whose 52yard touchdown run late in the first half trimmed the Ole Miss lead to 17-7 and gave the Razorbacks the momentum they needed entering halftime. It also provided a signature moPlease see HOGS | 11A

complished the feat.

“They (players) know what there’re up against,” said Kelly. “Now they have to come out and play.”

A playoff berth is on the line for Holly Springs (4-6, 2-2) and Kelly expects the Aggies to get the Hawks best shot.

“Holly Springs will be inspired ... it’s win and their in for them,” said the KHS mentor.

Kossuth, which wrapped up its first Division 1-3 championship since 1998 last week, will honor 19 seniors prior to kickoff.

“Holly Springs is very ath-

letic,” said the first-year head coach. “They could give us some problems upfront.”

The league champs have been pretty stout at home.

Over the last three home contests, the Aggies have surrendered only 14 points.

“We play with a chip on our shoulder at home,” said the coach.

Kelly hopes his defense can turn in another lockdown performance in the home finale.

“On defense, we have to get to the football,” he said. “We also have to find a way to run Please see KOSSUTH | 11A

Tennessee looking for better second-half play

BY BETH RUCKER The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Volunteers have been off to plenty of good starts this season. Now it’s time for them to learn how to finish.

The Vols second-half meltdowns have resulted in three straight losses. Their goal this week is to play a complete game against No. 14 South Carolina (6-1, 4-1) with the same strong effort as their first-half performances.

“Right now we’ve got to put those games behind us, as hard as it is to do and move on,” Ten-

nessee defensive end Marlon Walls said. “We’ve got another five or six games left so we’ve got to focus and refocus, get focused on South Carolina and try to finish. We’ve got to learn how to finish. We know we’re a pretty good first-half team.

We’ve got to learn how to be a pretty good second-half team.”

The misery has been on both sides of the field. The Vols (3-4, 0-4 Southeastern Conference) were tied with Georgia and second-ranked Alabama and trailed No. 1 LSU by a managePlease see SEC | 11A

Teague, a much-hyped big man in Anthony Davis — the nation’s consensus top prospect — and other top recruits Michael KiddGilchrist and Kyle Wiltjer.

Calipari is once again bringing along the youngsters with his knack for nurturing and maybe even humbling. He had three seniors on one team in Wednesday night’s preseason scrimmage, and three freshmen on the other.

Jones had 52 points and 16 rebounds. Calipari said the 6-foot9 Jones and the 6-10 Davis have yet to share the court on the same side in what might be a fearsome frontcourt pairing.

“I’m trying to keep them playing against each other to compete,” Calipari said. “The reason Darius Miller has improved so much is he’s going every day against Michael Gilchrist. If you don’t show up for practice, you’ll get dunked on, and so will Michael.”

Calipari said Jones, the preseason player of the year, has packed on 15 pounds of muscle and is displaying “viciousness” and maturity in the post. Jones opted to return to the team while freshman point guard Brandon Knight, the NBA draft’s No. 8 pick by the Detroit Pistons, and junior second-rounder DeAndre Liggins turned pro.

Jones withdrew his name from draft consideration on deadline day to return to school and evidently came back determined to get even better.

“He’s in the best shape of his life,” Calipari said. “He’s in the best shape of anybody on my team. He’s the first one out to practice; last year he was the last one out to practice. If you try to play on his left hand now, he will take you right and try to dunk on you. He finishes first on every run. He finished last on every run a year ago.”

Stallings will field a different kind of team than the Wildcats.

The Commodores return all five starters, including three who opted to postpone NBA careers and return for their senior seasons.

The division encounter was originally scheduled to be played at Holly Springs. The Kossuth administration made an offer that HSHS couldn’t refuse, buying out the contest and moving it to the friendly confines.

“It’s always good to play at home,” said Kelly. “It will be an opportunity to play another important game at our place.”

VOLS: Spurrier’s Gamecocks also continue to struggle with second-half results CONTINUED FROM 10A

able 10 points after the first half in each game but went on to be outscored by a combined 56-6 after halftime.

Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier finds no comfort in Tennessee’s second-half struggles. His own team has averaged just one second-half touchdown in games against Vanderbilt, Auburn and Mississippi State.

“They’ve played some good halves against top teams in the country. They haven’t been able to finish those games,” Spurrier said. “We know they’ll be ready for us. We’re a type of team that hasn’t clobbered anybody much.”

Tennessee managed to limit Alabama to 157 yards in the first half on the way to a 6-6 halftime tie. After the break, the Crimson Tide piled up 31 unanswered points and 280 yards, while the Vols failed to pick up a first down and turned the ball over twice on the way to a 37-6 finish.

“First half was outstanding,” Tennessee coach Derek Dooley

said. “It was fun to watch and we did something that nobody has done to those guys this season. The second half was terrible. They did to us what probably most people expected them to do to us.”

LSU managed to limit the Vols to just three possessions in

the second half while dominating the time of possession and slowly adding to the scoreboard in its 38-7 win. Georgia managed to score its two secondhalf touchdowns against Tennessee in less than 4 minutes, but the speed only seemed to deflate Tennessee’s hopes for a

late-game comeback.

The Vols say the problems aren’t because they’re tired or going soft during halftime. It’s a matter of staying mentally strong when things inevitably don’t go their way on the field.

“It’s just lack of focus. I guess the pressure is getting

HOGS: Petrino holds off naming Johnson the primary back CONTINUED FROM 10A

ment for Johnson’s career day, which came on just 15 carries, and Arkansas ran for a SEChigh 206 yards in the 29-24 win.

“He got hot out there,” Arkansas offensive coordinator Garrick McGee said. “He was feeling good. He had a good look in his eye in pregame. I kind of anticipated him having a good game. I could tell on the travel down there, I could see it in his eyes.”

Johnson’s play-making abilities have always been known

by Arkansas, but until this sea-

son he was mostly known as a special-teams threat. He entered the season as the SEC’s active leader for career kickoff return yards and total return yards with 2,014 but was often lost in the running-back-bycommittee approach preferred by coach Bobby Petrino.

Johnson averaged 5.1 yards per carry as a freshman and 6.5 as a sophomore in limited carries. He appeared poised to have a breakout season last year, averaging 9.2 yards on his first nine carries.

However, a season-ending bowel injury in the season’s second game against Louisi-

ana-Monroe ended any chance of that — and it was instead Davis who went on to have the breakout season, rushing for 1,322 yards.

Johnson rehabbed throughout the offseason and performed well during the preseason, but a hamstring injury kept him out of the first two games this year.

The back-to-back injuries led to concerns about how the 5-foot9, 213-pounder could hold up to the duties of an every-down running back.

He answered those questions against Ole Miss, but Petrino won’t commit quite yet to Johnson as the primary back.

Winless Colts, skidding Titans eager to meet again

BY TERESA M. WALKER The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Indianapolis Colts are coming off a blowout loss and looking for the relief their first win of the season will bring. The Tennessee Titans are ticked off, upset and just plain embarrassed by a twogame skid that includes their most lopsided defeat since moving into their stadium in 1999.

The two teams used to fighting for the top of the AFC South simply want a victory Sunday to show to themselves and everyone that they’re for real.

“You have to prove that wasn’t you,” Titans coach Mike

Munchak said of losing to Pittsburgh and Houston by a combined score of 79-24. “It starts to become a pattern when you lose two games in a row by large scores. We have to make that go away, we have to erase that memory and just worry about us and doing our jobs in our building. I know that we believe in what we can do, and that is all that really matters right now.”

A challenging season without Peyton Manning turned uglier for the Colts (0-7) with a 62-7 loss to the Saints last week.

Colts center Jeff Saturday said motivation isn’t a problem, not against Tennessee, the only

team other than Indianapolis to win the AFC South.

“We have had some great battles, and I have a ton of respect for the way they play football and we have had some great games over the years,” Saturday said. “Motivation wouldn’t have been an issue regardless, but coming off of a (62-7) whipping, you can’t wait to get back on the field and try to get some redemption.”

The Titans (3-3) were booed by their home fans during last week’s 41-7 loss to Houston in which Tennessee blew the divisional lead. The run game that has been a staple of this fran-

chise since 1996 still ranks last in the NFL, averaging a meager 64.3 yards per game, and critics are targeting Chris Johnson with his preseason holdout and $53 million contract extension as the cause.

Tennessee hopes to get Johnson running early and often against an Indianapolis defense giving up 150.9 yards per game, 31st in the NFL. But Munchak cautions that the Colts have given up yards in the second half when opponents have had leads. That’s something the Titans haven’t been able to do in this skid.

Munchak also has warned his

Sign-Up deadline is November 30.

Titans against taking the Colts’ winless mark as a sign that Indianapolis hasn’t been competitive. He argues the Colts easily could be 5-2 with just a few plays, and Titans who remember their own 0-6 start in 2009 see many of the same Colts playing for Indianapolis even with Manning out after neck surgery.

The Colts have won five straight in this series, but they swept last season’s games by a combined five points against a Tennessee team that finished 6-10.

But Indianapolis now ranks 30th in total offense with 280 yards per game.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You wouldn’t mind hearing about how brilliant you are, and yet, strangely, those around you are not mentioning it today.

Here’s your astrologer, picking up the slack: You are brilliant!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Choose your teachers carefully. Kindness and intelligence go hand in hand. Furthermore, anyone who is supposedly wise but doesn’t know how to love is a fraud.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). As you expand emotionally and physically, note that the very nature of stretching is that it goes beyond the usual range of motion. That said, it doesn’t have to actually hurt to do you some good.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve been known to keep lists of important things, and yet lately you’ve fallen out of the habit. It’s true that you can remember quite a lot; however, you’ll feel much freer if you commit the items to paper instead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The outside world is cacophony. You have to close the doors to get some peace. Also, some people in your life are quite noisy, though you may not notice this until they leave. You’ll experience first-hand why silence is golden.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You get the impression that the authority figures don’t know what’s going on, at least not completely. You have a better view of the day-to-day realities at the ground level, and there is opportunity in this position.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The solution to today’s problems will be a synthesis of information from various people. Instead of asking “who” is right, you ask “what” is right. And you realize that there is not one person who holds all of the correct answers.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a reason why most organizations appoint one person to be the leader and not an entire group of people. Committees can be more trouble than they are worth.

You’ll see an illustration of this today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You realize that you don’t have to own things in order to get good use out of them. You’ll do everything you need to do using what is borrowed, rented or available to the public. How convenient!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have a knack for turning a necessity into an object of loveliness. The total satisfaction of seeing the manifestation of your idea will be well worth the effort you put forth in its development.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Justice never sleeps. It will be crucial to your own sleeping patterns that you sort out an unjust situation in your waking hours. Do what it takes to keep your own conscience clear, and encourage others to do the right thing, too.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will inspire and empower the people around you. The best part is that you don’t have to be in charge of things for this dynamic to happen. You simply contribute in a way that others admire.

And yet, his friends say, he felt so strongly about economic inequality in the country that he fought for that he slept at a San Francisco protest camp after work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He felt you shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait until something is affecting you to get out and do something about it,â&#x20AC;? said friend and roommate Keith Shannon, who served with Olsen in Iraq.

It was that feeling that drew him to Oakland on Tuesday night, when the clashes broke out and Olsen was struck by a projectile that fractured his skull.

Police say they responded only when protesters began throwing bottles and

other items at them.

Now, even as officials investigate exactly where the projectile came from, and from whom, Olsen has become a rallying cry for the Occupy Wall Street demonstrators across the nation, with Twitter users and protest websites declaring: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are all Scott Olsen.â&#x20AC;?

In Las Vegas, a few dozen protesters held a vigil Wednesday night, carrying glow sticks and projecting a photo of the Marine in uniform onto the corrugated-metal side of building at their camp.

More vigils were being planned Thursday night in other cities.

Elsewhere, officials took steps to close some camps that sprang up since the movement began last month against what protesters see as corporate greed and a government that caters to the wealthiest and big business.

In Nashville, Tenn., officials imposed a curfew for a camp at the Capitol complex. In Providence, R.I., officials notified

protesters that they were violating laws prohibiting camping overnight at a park.

Some tea party groups complained of a double standard, saying they were charged fees to hold their rallies while Occupy groups have not. One group in Richmond, Va., is asking the city to repay $8,000 spent for permits and other needs.

On Thursday, however, most of the talk was of Olsen and who was responsible for his injury.

The group Iraq Veterans Against the War blamed police. Police say they used tear gas and bean bag rounds, not flash grenades and rubber bullets as some demonstrators have charged.

Interim Oakland police Chief Howard Jordan said Wednesday that the charges of excessive use of force are being investigated. He did not return repeated calls seeking comment on Thursday.

Olsenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition improved on Thursday, with doctors transferring him from the emergency room

to an intensive care unit.

His parents were flying to Oakland from Wisconsin, his uncle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His mother, this is obviously a heartbreaker to her,â&#x20AC;? said George Nygaard, also a Marine veteran, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think she understands why he was doing this.â&#x20AC;?

Olsen, who is from Onalaska, Wis., served two tours in Iraq, felt the anti-Wall Street movement had a chance to create real change, Shannon said. So each night, he would go out to the tent camps and usually called Shannon with his whereabouts.

On Tuesday night, Olsen had planned to be in San Francisco, but changed course after his veteranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s group decided to go to Oakland to support the protesters there.

Earlier, police in riot gear cleared an encampment outside city hall that officials said had health and safety problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it was a last minute thing,â&#x20AC;? he said about Olsenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think about it.â&#x20AC;?

BOSTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Step into the McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Port Chester, N.Y. on a Saturday, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good chance youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see Jon Burnham dining on the cheap with his wife.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regulars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where else can two people go and have a really nice lunch or dinner for $10?â&#x20AC;? Burnham says.

He knows how to spot a value, after more than five decades in the financial services industry, and 16 years as a mutual fund manager.

The economy is in a tough spot, and Burnham expects consumers will continue to embrace low-cost menus at fastfood chains. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a particularly strong believer in McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stock, one of the top five holdings in his fund.

Its shares are trading at an all-time high, up 22 percent in a year when the stock market has edged up just 2 percent. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one reason why Burnham Fund (BURHX) has outperformed 94 percent of its large-blend stock category peers this year, returning more than 3 percent.

A bigger contributor is Burnhamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s secondbiggest holding, Chipotle Mexican Grill. Its shares have surged 62 percent this year, lifted by sales that are rising at a faster pace than at more established chains.

The sizzling results for restaurant chains extend beyond those two names.

Strong performers include Panera Bread and Starbucks, both up 34 percent; Tim Hortons, 22 percent; Wendyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, 12 percent, and Yum Brands, 11 percent.

Investors looking to spice up returns by adding those names to their portfolios may find their potential is limited because the stocks have performed so well recently.

Industry profits are being constrained by rising costs for ingredients such as beef and coffee, which have triggered price increases at several chains.

Still their menu prices remain low enough that the chains hold appeal at a time when many consumers are wary of spending too much to eat out.

Fund managers investing in fast food say theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also drawn by the relative simplicity of the chainsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

business models. And many chains have expanded into fast-growing emerging markets like China.

Remembering night of corduroy horror with the Mona Lisa smile

BY JIMMY REED Adolescence is a troubling time; if one falls in love during that turbulent transition from pubescence to maturation, it can be terrifying. Such was the case when I had eyes only for Carol Rose.

She was an exotic beauty with raven black hair, a coquettish, Mona Lisa smile, and deep-set, electric blue eyes, set in a perfect, un-pimpled teenage face, glowing with creamy mother-of-pearl smoothness. She had no bad angle: from the front, side or behind, she was pure pulchritude — the kind of female who causes boys to sit up all night and stare at the moon, like lonely, howling coyotes.

Knowing how hopelessly in love I was, her cousin Andy came up with an idea: “Saturday night is Halloween, and we’re going to see ‘Mystery Of The Wax Museum’ at the Temple Theatre. I’ll talk her into saving a seat for you.”

Pleased that her son was exhibiting the characteristics of a healthy, heterosexual male, Mama was almost excited as I was.

“Wear a white shirt and your new pair of corduroy

“Swish, swish, swish — Igor took the exact number of steps I took.”

pants,” she said. “I’ll take you to the movie and you can ride home with Mrs. Polasini.”

The Polasinis lived even farther out in the country than we did.

As soon as my eyes adapted to the darkened theater, I saw Carol Rose’s glossy black hair crossing a graceful neck and falling on a pale white shoulder.

“Hi,” I said. “Are you saving this seat for someone?”

“Yes,” she answered, and after what seemed an eternity, whispered, “For you.”

The movie was the ultimate horror experience of our young lives, so much so that Carol Rose reached over and took my hand.

Terrified, we watched Igor dip his victims into wax and create lifelike statues. Fay Wray was saved from the vat of hot wax at the last minute and we breathed a huge sigh of relief.

When Mrs. Polasini let me out at our house’s long, winding driveway, I felt uneasy. The path was pitch black, beneath gloomy overhanging trees.

No doubt Igor was hiding one of them.

My chest froze, I couldn’t breathe . . . I would soon be dipped in hot wax!

Swish, swish, swish — Igor took the exact number of steps I took. I raced with all my might for the front door, with Igor swish, swish, swishing at the same pace.

Clinging un-manfully to Mama’s nightgown, I told her Igor had almost captured me.

When she asked how I knew, I explained the monster’s swish, swish, swish. She chuckled, giggled and then guffawed.

“Walk across the room, son.” I did, and the corduroy fabric between my thighs swished, swished, swished.

Tactfully, she changed the subject. “How did things go with Carol Rose?”

“That gorgeous babe held my hand, Mama. I’ll always remember this Halloween as the most wonderful night of my life.”

I really remember it as the night of corduroy horror.

Creative Halloween costume guide for procrastinators It’s that crazy, zany time of year again; Halloween is just around the corner! This means lots of foolishness, including wacky costumes. For some of us, though, Halloween means scurrying around at the last minute to come up with an outfit that’s inexpensive but creative.

Here, then, is my helpful, biennial costume column for those who don’t want to spend money on a rag-tag something made in some far-away land. Notice I don’t “do” scary, bloody, gruesome or disgusting.

With a little online research, I’ve come up with these simple suggestions: ■ Carry a quarter and a hammer. What are you? A quarter-pounder.

■ Wear black. Put postage stamp (enlarged, if possible) on your chest. You are: black mail.

■ Draw the letter C seven times on face and arms. And you are? The Seven Seas.

■ Draw the letter P around eyes. What are you? Blackeyed peas.

■ Quarter (or enlarged picture of one) taped to your back. You are? A quarterback.

■ Wrap yourself in aluminum foil. You are what? A baked potato.

■ Affix one couch cushion to your front and one to your back. You’re the lost TV remote.

■ Wear white. Attach (or paint) yellow circle to your stomach.

You are an Beth Boswell egg.

Jacks ■ Add horns and a Snippets pitchfork to the previous outfit and you are a deviled egg.

■ Cut hole in big box for your head. Attach book, tissue box, lamp. What are you?

Bedside table.

■ Paint a shoebox black and attach it to your back.

What are you? A refrigerator magnet.

■ Paint one finger gold.

And you are? Gold finger.

■ Put crosses all over the clothes you’re wearing. What are you? A cross dresser.

■ Dress normally. Pin socks, dryer sheets, hand towels to your shirt. You’re static cling.

■ Carry sheets of paper.

Every now and then, tear one up. You’re a paper shredder.

■ Catcher’s glove, loaf of rye bread. Attach the bread and wear the glove. Catcher in the rye.

■ Wear T-shirt with a large question mark on it. Glue popcorn to shirt. You’re a pop quiz.

■ Wear large white shirt or lab coat. Hold stuffed animals to be . . . a veterinarian!

■ Wear normal clothes.

Attach a dollar to each ear.

What are you? A Bucaneer.

(Buck-in-ear).

■ Dress in a nice suit. Attach legal documents to yourself. What are you? A lawsuit.

■ Hold an empty box of cereal and a toy knife. You’re a “Cereal Killer.”

■ Attach a muffin to your hat. What are you? The Muffin-Man. ■ Hold a toy airplane.

You’re what? An aircraft carrier.

■ Stick gold stars all over your black outfit. Layer yourself with hula hoops. You’re Saturn.

■ Carry clock in one hand; some sort of bird in the other.

You’re “tick or tweet.”

■ Put a sign that says “Go, Ceilings!!!!” on your shirt.

Rah for you -- a ceiling fan!

■ Cover yourself with a black sheet. You’re the black sheet of the family.

So there you go -- great ideas for little or nothing. If you don’t win the costume contest, at least you’ll have fun.

Have a “boo-tiful” Halloween!

Very blessed after recent medical scare Vatican urges major worldwide economic reform

What a blessed person I am! And how wonderful my friends and family are!

I can’t find words to express how appreciative I am of all the prayers, cards, calls and food my family and I received during my unexpected illness. I have been completely amazed at how concerned people have been and how much they have gone out of their way to show love.

My strength is returning and I find myself wanting to do everything again, but my kids keep shaking their heads and speaking those words of caution we parents are not accustomed to, if you know what I mean.

If I had written out my personal requests, though, I couldn’t have asked for things to have worked any better when I had my first experience with heart problems.

When I began to notice unusual physical discomforts a couple weeks ago while at church, I had no clue what was happening. Only a few minutes passed, however, before I knew I had to get some help.

I’ve made emergency room visits with my parents, my husband and Lora Ann a couple Huff times with my kids, The Back Porch but this was the first time for me to be an ER patient. I usually try to be my own doctor, but that day when I couldn’t get a good breath and my hands were going numb, I reluctantly said, “Let’s go to the hospital; we’ve got to find out what’s going on.”

The trip to our local hospital took only five minutes and within an hour’s time, I was on my way to the heart cath lab with Dr. Mohamed and his assistants. I’ve always thought that would be a most painful procedure and that I would be totally scared to death — they would have to “put me to sleep,” I thought.

I can truthfully say that the peace the Lord gave me that day left no room for fear, and the doctor

assured me I would not be in pain even though I would be awake. He was right!

Thankfully, the procedure was quick and the doctor was able to clear the affected artery and put a stent in to keep it open. When everything was done, I felt like I could just get up and go home.

Of course, I didn’t get to do that — and I was glad later, as I realized the ordeal did take a little something out of me.

Almost two weeks later, I look back on the event, which was so scary for my family, and all I can say is “Thank you, Lord,” for all the provisions He made that day and the days following. He worked through so many people to show how He cares for His children, helpless as we are. He knew where I needed to be when the artery acted up, and He knew where the doctor needed to be.

Church family and friends showed up to support my husband and kids and pray with them, and they brought unbelievable amounts of

food throughout the week that followed. Our church ladies cannot be outdone

by Paula Deen on any day — they know how to do it right! I liked watching Hansford and my younger son, Shane, enjoy the mystery of what supper would be each night, and then listening to their advice on what and how much I should eat. They reminded me my love affair with salt must be tamed down a bit; I don’t like that but I know I can adjust.

I learned a long time ago not to make what I call “concrete plans” because we never know what a day may bring, and that particular Sunday proved the theory all over again. I was reminded that in all the uncertainty of life, the Lord is the one sure thing to depend on.

I may be helpless but He is not — and I praise Him for that!

BY VICTOR L. SIMPSON Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — The Vatican called Monday for radical reform of the world’s financial systems, including the creation of a global political authority to manage the economy.

A proposal by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace calls for a new world economic order based on ethics and the “achievement of a universal common good.” It follows Pope Benedict XVI’s 2009 economic encyclical that denounced a profitat-all-cost mentality as responsible for the global financial meltdown.

The proposal acknowledges, however, that a “long road still needs to be traveled before arriving at the creation of a public authority with universal jurisdiction” and suggests the reform process begin with the

United Nations as a point of reference.

Vatican pronouncements on the economy are meant to guide world leaders as well as the global church. United States Roman Catholic bishops, for example, have released a voter guide for the 2012 election that highlights social concerns such as ending poverty.

“It is an exercise of responsibility not only toward the current but above all toward future generations, so that hope for a better future and confidence in human dignity and capacity for good may never be extinguished,” the document said.

It highlights that reforms must assure that financial and monetary policies will not damage the weakest economies while also achieving fair distribution of the world’s wealth.

Georgia schools see drop in student enrollment for Bible classes

BY DORIE TURNER Associated Press

ATLANTA — In 2006, Georgia became the first state to allow Bible education classes in public schools, after much debate over the sticky issue of separation of church and state. Now the classes are dwindling for a far more tangible reason: money.

Superintendents say interest has waned in the

once-controversial classes and schools don’t have the money to pay for courses with only a few students enrolled. What’s more, budget cuts mean it now takes more students to fill up a class than ever before — some classes need more than 25 enrolled before they are considered affordable.

“We’re not going to utilize a teacher for a whole period with 10 to 15 students. In the past, we may have considered that, but with the economy being the way it is, we just can’t afford to do that,” said Columbia County schools Superintendent Charles Na-

gle, who has cut the Bible classes from three to one in his tiny district.

Since Georgia’s law passed five years ago, four states — Texas, Tennessee, South Carolina and Oklahoma — have adopted similar measures, but none track the classes like Georgia does. Officials in those states say they simply approve the curriculum and leave it up to local districts to decide whether to offer the classes.

Though data are scant in other states, national experts say Georgia is not alone.

The economy is taking a toll on how many schools

consider offering Bible classes because it’s difficult to find qualified teachers and set aside the funding for the textbook and materials, said Sarah Jenislawski, executive director for the Virginia-based Bible Literacy Project, which has sold its textbook to more than 500 schools in 43 states.

Before the laws passed, most schools would have been concerned about whether the classes are legal, but now the main objection is money, Jenislawski said.

“Sometimes, instead of taking one year, it might take two or three” years to

establish the classes, she said. “They’re having trouble keeping the lights on and keeping the air conditioner running.”

Other states like Alabama have stopped short of adopting laws but still provide the curriculum in schools. Hundreds of public schools across the country offer voluntary Bible courses to students even though their state doesn’t have a law specifically addressing the issue.

The laws help provide cover for districts worried about being sued and encourage schools that might not otherwise consider the classes to begin offering

Bible elective courses.

In Georgia, just 21 middle and high schools in 16 districts — a fraction of the 180 school districts in the state — offered the voluntary classes last school year, the latest data available. That’s compared to 48 districts offering the classes four years ago.

Some of that drop-off is due to students having little time in their class schedules for elective courses because they have to repeat the state’s new, tougher math courses or need an Advanced Placement class to help with college admissions, educators said.

Iukaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest resident is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a red-hot rebelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (The Iuka Vidette, Feb. 21, 1895)

Mr. Editor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; It would probably interest your readers to have a brief sketch of the oldest person in the county and one among the first settlers of Iuka. I allude to Mrs. Eccles, wife of one of our best citizens, Mr. A. Eccles. On the 14th inst., she celebrated, she says, her 91st birthday.

She was born in Fairfield District, about two miles from Weinsboro, South Carolina. Her maiden name was Garbrough. She first married Hugh Smith and moved to Georgia, while near the present town of Cartersville, Ga., Mr. Smith was accidentally drowned in Etowah River.

By him she had quite a number of children of whom three are now living. Mr. Thos. B. Smith, who is and has been for a great number of years one of the most trusted and efficient employees of the Memphis & Charleston Railroad, and two daughters, both widows and citizens of Iuka, Mrs. Millsaps and Mrs. Hughes. Mrs. Eccles has now living in Iuka four of her generations. Her daughter, granddaughter, great-granddaughter, and great-great-grandson, who is Paul, the little son of our hotel man, W. B. Leatherwood. Mr. D. R. Hubbard, who bought from the United States the land on which Iuka is located, married a granddaughter of Mrs. Eccles.

Her mind is still remarkably clear and strong, and she can give you the details of many things which happened 75 years ago. She remembers distinctly when war was declared in 1812 between the United States and Great Britain, and she tells of many incidents of that war.

She lived in Iuka all through the late War Between the States, and while her husband was in the Confederate Army, she remained at home and was all the time a red-hot rebel, a real â&#x20AC;&#x153;chick of the old blue hen.â&#x20AC;?

At one time, a Federal soldier attempted to enter her house and take her money when she put herself in front of him and defied his

power, and it is said gave him a good rebel cursing, when he struck her across the head with his gun and gave her a big scar which today RaNae she is as proud of Vaughn as a boy of his first breeches.

Historically Mrs. Eccles is a Speaking prominent member of the Hard Shell Baptist Church, and she very seldom misses the meetings of her church which is two miles from town, though she often walks to attend. There is one thing, though, that the writer has often seen her do and that is to dance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not the indolent, languid dances of the present day, but the good old break downs of the olden time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But course, Mr. Editor, you will keep this part a secret.â&#x20AC;?

On the 14th, her 91st birthday, she got up at her usual early rising time and cleaned up her room and made up her own bed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; things which she has never allowed anyone else to do for her, and it is said by her close neighbors that she sometimes gets after her granddaughters and hurries them out of her way when they seem to her to be too slow in doing their work.

I could tell you of many amusing incidents of this remarkable old-young lady, but for fear I will make the story too long, I will stop.

But, Mr. Editor, if you want to be entertained, and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go sooner, suppose you call to see her on her next birthday and she can give you many things for the good of your readers. As a neighbor there is none better; as a friend there is none truer; as a woman there is none more remarkable for physical and mental activity. OLD TIMER.

Uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ashes â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;temporarilyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; housed in momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mausoleum DEAR ABBY: My 87-yearold mother recently discovered that the mausoleum site she had reserved for herself next to my fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grave â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and paid for when he died â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was occupied by my uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ashes and headstone. Mom had moved away 20 years ago and had not visited the cemetery in all that time.

My cousinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s explanation, when confronted by my tearful mom, was that it was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;temporary solutionâ&#x20AC;? as the mausoleum was full at the time of my uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death.

They were planning to move him. Apparently, it has taken 14 years for them to get around to it.

Mom had to send a notarized letter to the cemetery asking that my uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remains be removed. My cousins, who are wealthy and successful people, saved $800 by using my motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prepaid site. Should Mom charge them rent? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; BEWILDERED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR BEWILDERED: I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think your mother should ask your cousins for â&#x20AC;&#x153;rent,â&#x20AC;? but I do think your mother should contact the owners of the cemetery and

ask what they plan to do to compensate her for her distress. Frankly, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand how Dear they could Abby have allowed your uncleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Abigail ashes to be van Buren placed in her reserved site.

The ball will then be in their court â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and if they are ethical and responsible, they may offer free opening and closing costs at the time of her death.

DEAR ABBY: My daughter â&#x20AC;&#x153;Joyâ&#x20AC;? is 19. She attended a small school with about 40 other students in her grade.

She never had a boyfriend -- or even a date -- until the first week of college a year ago. The boy was a high school classmate of hers.

They became engaged before he went off to boot camp.

My husband and I are extremely concerned because of Joyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s age and inexperience. Her fiance is OK, but we feel they are not for each other. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re positive she could find someone more compatible, but whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going

to approach her with that ring on her finger? I feel my daughter has low self-esteem and is afraid she wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find anyone else. How do we make Joy see that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too young and inexperienced to make such an important decision? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; MAMA KNOWS BETTER IN OHIO DEAR MAMA KNOWS BETTER: You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. As wellmeaning and caring a mother as you are, if you try to tell your daughter what you have in mind you will only make her defensive. Instead, encourage her to wait until her fiance returns home and she either has her college degree or is close to it before they tie the knot. It will go a long way to making her more employable when she starts a career of her own. And if her fiance decides to make a career of the military, it will make her more employable as they are transferred from place to place.
