City making changes to garbage pickup

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth is getting ready to make a transition to automated refuse collection, which will provide cost savings for the city and require some cooperation

from residents.

The downturn in availability of free inmate labor in recent years has nudged the city toward automation, which will require only one worker per truck rather than the several that now

work the garbage routes. The city is purchasing two trucks for automated collection and expects to begin making test runs with one truck in the next couple of months. “We are looking at having two

in service by next year,� said Public Works Director Clayton Mills.

The trucks have a robotic arm that will pick up the trash can, and the city acknowledges it will likely take some time for

everyone to get accustomed to the new system. “We’re wanting to get the word out and let people know,� said Mills. “That driver is not Please see GARBAGE | 2A

The Corinth High School Alumni Association is giving top honors this year to Leroy Wesley Worsham, recognizing his long career and contributions to the community.

The 2017 Alumnus of the Year recipient will be honored at Warrior Stadium on Friday, Oct. 13, at 6:45 p.m. prior to the football game against Ripley. A tent will be set up inside the stadium for people to stop by and visit with Worsham and his family.

The Corinth native is a member of the CHS Class of 1936 and one of the founders of the Worsham Brothers construction company.

Community members have strong praise for Worsham. “We are so glad that Leroy has been chosen for this honor,� wrote Sandy and Rosemary Williams. “He is a great friend, and our families go back for at least four generations. He has many achievements in the field of engineering, in service to his country, to his church, and especially to his fellow man.�

Addie Page Pratt enjoyed receiving letters from Worsham while hospitalized at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Worsham “It’s impossible to put Mr. Worsham into only a few sentences,� she wrote. “Leroy has made such a huge impact on my life, and I am so blessed to call him a friend. He is always full of life and an all around incredible person. I can think of no one more deserving of this award.�

Born in 1918, Worsham is a member of 83 years at First Presbyterian Church, making him the oldest active member.

He became an Eagle Scout at 13 and received the Marcus Elvis Taylor Memorial Medal as Please see ALUMNUS | 2A

Awards celebrate Corinth High School coach and teacher

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Teacher Jennie Pearce and Coach Harold Wesson are Corinth alumni’s 2017 picks for faculty/staff of the year.

Wesson’s honor is posthumous.

The two will be recognized during a come-and-go reception hosted by the Corinth High School Alumni Association on Thursday, Oct. 12, 6 to 8 p.m., at the upstairs banquet room of Pizza Grocery. A brief program at the beginning will include remarks about each honoree.

Family of both will attend.

A Corinth native, Wesson graduated from CHS in 1939 and coached football at the school for nine years. He led Kosciusko High School to a

state championship in 1949 and was named Big 8 Conference Coach of the Year while at Corinth in 1951. “He instilled character in young men to last a lifetime, and he became a lifetime friend of the senior football players from the Class of 1956,� said Ronnie Farris, a member of that class. “He came to numerous reunions that we started over 30 years ago where we meet one weekend in October to relive the past and talk about the present.�

One of his most memorable victories came against their main Big 8 Conference rival, Tupelo, which was ranked number one in the state and also nationally ranked at the time. As each victory came to a close for

the bigger school, the Tupelo band would play the ‘50s tune “Ain’t That a Shame.�

A few weeks before the game, Wesson, eyeing an upset, told the Corinth band director to learn that song. “It seemed like almost everyone in Corinth was there,� said Farris. “Not only were the stands full, but both end zones were filled with standing room only. Tupelo’s football players were big/physical and Corinth was not predicted to win that night. Corinth’s players were not as blessed with as much talent, but we were scrappy/fast, and we wanted that victory.�

The Warriors eked out a 14-8 win and the Corinth band

Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Works completes expansion of territory Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Works, Inc. announced today that it has completed its territory expansion into Central and Northeast Arkansas and the Missouri Bootheel.

The family-owned Coca-Cola bottling and distribution company’s expanded territory includes: Jonesboro, Paragould, Blytheville, Osceola, Batesville, Newport, Searcy, and Heber Springs in Arkansas and Kennett, Caruthersville, and Malden in Missouri.

This is the third expansion for Corinth CocaCola, as a part of The Coca-Cola Company’s 21st Century Beverage partnership model bringing local community ownership back to bottling

istration.

“This is just clearly sabotage,” Mitchell said.

“It’s still the law of the land, but they’re pulling out.”

The move drew national attention, and the department wasn’t shy about it.

“The American people know a bad deal when they see one and many won’t be convinced to sign up for ‘Washington-knows-best’ health coverage that they can’t afford,” department Press Secretary Caitlin Oakley said in a statement. “As Obamacare continues to collapse, HHS is carefully evaluating how we can best serve the American people who continue to be harmed by Obamacare’s failures.”

partners.

The addition of this territory expands the Company’s footprint by almost 40 percent and increases the number of employees by almost 15 percent. Corinth CocaCola has already added approximately 60 jobs in Jonesboro and Searcy, Ark., in addition to the 45 people who have transitioned to Corinth Coke from Coca-Cola Refreshments, a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company.

Corinth has also already made capital investments

in the communities. In addition to investments in additional fleet and equipment to serve the market, the Company has added a distribution center in Searcy and is in the process of identifying a permanent home for its Jonesboro operations.

Kenneth Williams, president of Corinth Coca-Cola, stated, “Through new facility operations, we are pleased to bring a Coca-Cola presence back to Jonesboro and Searcy.

We have a strong team in place that is dedicated to bring forth the same high level of customer service our company has provided for the past 110 years.

Our team is committed to serving our new customers and consumers of Ar-

kansas and Missouri, and we are thankful for this opportunity to once again grow our footprint.”

Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Works Inc. is a privately held, family-owned Coca-Cola bottling and distribution company.

Founded by Avon Kenneth Weaver and C.C. Clark in 1907 in Corinth, Weaver descendants continue to own and operate the company today.

In addition to its headquarters in Corinth, Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Works currently has locations in Lexington, Tenn., Jackson, Tenn., Tupelo, Miss., and now Searcy, Ark., and Jonesboro, Ark. For more information, visit www. corinthcoke.com.

has been able to pick up excess garbage that residents may put alongside the cart for collection.

With automation, however, the city will ask residents to have everything inside the cart. Large packaging boxes can be

cut down to fit inside the cart, and residents can get an additional cart for $12 monthly.

Carts will need to be left facing the road within a certain distance from the street and with no obstructions such as mail-

boxes or parked cars.

Residents will see more information on the requirements as the conversion date gets closer.

Rubbish collection for vegetation and bagged leaves will not be affected.

Along with these chang-

es, the city is looking at code enforcement issues in relation to garbage service. Code Enforcement Officer Kim Ratliff said one area of concern is old furniture and items being left outside of rental property when tenants

are evicted.

Removal of such items is the responsibility of the landlord. Those items can be disposed at the transfer station operated by Waste Connections on Getwell Road off of South Harper.

tion until retiring in 1977.

He was later inducted into the school’s Hall of Fame.

Jennie Pearce enjoyed a long teaching career at Corinth in subjects including typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, filing, general business and secretarial science.

“I have many, many fond memories of my years at Corinth High

School,” she said. “The teachers were like family, and we were close and had lots of good times together. Likewise, my students were like family as well.”

She and her husband, Dean, both began working at Corinth High School in 1962. During the first year, she served as the school’s first fulltime secretary. She began

teaching the following year, and the two retired at the same time in May 1996.

“Mrs. Pearce has been both a teaching colleague and a dear friend for many years,” wrote Vicki Shirley. “She was an outstanding teacher who was known not only for her ability to teach but also because she took the time to truly

care for her students and to understand each one as an individual.

She had the exceptional ability to instill students with self-confidence and sound values. She was ... and still is ... loved by her former students and peers.”

Fellow teacher Barbara Trapp also praised Pearce.

“She is truly one of the

sweetest people I know,” wrote Trapp. “She was always willing to go out of her way to help any student in any way she could.

Along with her beloved husband, they were the epitome of the best teachers at CHS for several decades.”

The alumni association honors one living and one deceased faculty/staff member each year.

“Standing along the shallow sandy beach on a January evening, capturing beautiful shades of a perfect evening of the Lord’s painted skies,” is how the avid photographer described the moment she captured the

Best of Show winner.

Meints added, “I would like to dedicate my Best of Show image to my recently deceased motherin-law, Marie, a woman of colorful diversity – much like the various sunset hues and colors of a canvas sunset. She was a woman of mystery and hidden secrets, only found in the reality of the moment – similar to the shades of a beautiful sunset, only understood in the eye of the beholder.”

Cheryl wasn’t the only

Meints to pickup wins.

Don also garnered first place trophies in the Close-Up and Vacation divisions of the contest.

Museum officials are planning one major change for the 2018 contest.

“We will be moving the photo contest from the fall to the spring,” said Cathy Wood, president of the museum’s board. “Because the museum has no fundraisers in the first half of the year, financially, we needed to move the contest to the spring.”

Wood said the contest will likely launch in March, have a April deadline and photos will be on display during May. The move will also end the museum’s partnership to display contest photos at the Alcorn County Fair.

This year’s contest winners include:

Ripley Dixie Theatre to premiere ‘Blood Country’ Oct. 13 RIPLEY – The premiere of a Western-style thriller with scenes filmed in Ripley will be held Friday, Oct. 13 at the Dixie Theatre, reported the SouthernSentinel.

The name of the film is “Blood Country.” Multiple key scenes were shot in Ripley. Producer Matthew Horton credits other historic locations such as the Jacinto Courthouse and the Rodney Presbyterian Church for adding a degree of authenticity and realism to the film.

“Additionally, it was important to me that the film showcased some of the lesser-known historic landmarks throughout the state, and, if possible, bring

awareness to the preservation of these important, yet aging, structures that hold a great deal of Mississippi history,” said Horton.

“Blood Country” is based on a true story, and is set in the 1800s in Lawrence County, Mississippi. The story is a tale of a murder in the small southern town of Oak Vale in 1884, a Mississippi town still struggling to pull itself up from the ravages of the Civil War. The screenplay was adapted from Robert E. Jones’ story “The Outlaw, the Sheriff and the Governor,” which is part of a collection from the book “Mississippi Gumbo — A Collection of Tales of South Mississippi and a Potpourri of Other Mississippi Writings.”

The film’s story includes a complex plot that is founded upon the ongoing internal feud developing within a humble family and one that incorporates the complicated social economics of the post-Civil War era.

Horton says the film also “... highlights the legal system of a small Mississippi community in the late 1800s, and how there are instances when honorable men were forced to making a choice to do bad/immoral things in the interest of the greater good.”

Horton, whose father Sam Horton was born and raised in Tiplersville, says it is very important to him that one of the premiere locations be in Ripley.

He says, “I have many close family members who still live in and around Tippah County.

I spent many childhood summers staying with my grandparents where I”d spend my days fishing, exploring and looking for the next opportunity to go to First Monday. Tippah County is a special place for me, therefore, I am excited about the opportunity to share this film with those close to me in Northeast Mississippi. As producer and actor in the fim, I’ve put a lot into this project over the past 10 months and to be able to bring it to life on screen for my family and friends to enjoy is somewhat surreal.”

In addition to Ripley, the film

was exclusively shot in historic and remote locations including Lawrence County, Monticello, Canton, Rodney, Canton, Jacinto and Greenwood.

“Blood Country” is set for 10 theatrical releases spanning the state and in other states in the continental Unites States.

Three theatrical releases will be held in Memphis, New Orleans and Arkansas. The film will also show at The Wild Bunch Film Festival, an international film festival in Willcox, Arizona, in October.

Start time for the premiere is 7 p.m. Following the film, Horton will conduct a Q&A with the cast/crew in attendance at the event. Special guest attending the premiere will be Chris Bosarge, former wide receiver of the Mississippi Bulldogs and the film’s lead actor.

Tickets can be purchased at eventbrite.com/e/bloodcountry-ripley-premiere-tickets-36926650606 or by calling the Dixie Theatre at 993-2787.

Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. Half of the proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to the Dixie Theatre.

Tuscumbia Boyfriend charged with murder, $1 million bond set TUSCUMBIA, Ala. — The livein boyfriend of a Tuscumbia woman shot outside her home Thursday night has been charged with murder, reported the TimesDaily.

Pro football, the anthem and America

Opinion

Mark Boehler, editor

4A • Sunday, October 1, 2017

Corinth, Miss.

BY DR. GLENN MOLLETTE Columnist

Professional football fans were treated to some relief last Thursday evening as the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears stood arm in arm for the singing of the National Anthem.

People in the stands either did likewise or put their hands over their hearts. Americans felt proud but mostly relieved.

Owners of the National Football League teams employ the players.

Some of the owners obviously are OK with whatever the players do during the national anthem. I wonder how the owners would feel if a player decides he is simply going to let the other team score in order to make a statement? What if they decide they are going to stand back and watch while the other team kicks the field goal? Or what if they want to wear their own style of uniform? There are rules and expectations by the league and every team owner. The owners need to step up and be owners.

The players are being paid and their job starts when they walk into the stadium and put on their uniform. What if a player wants to make a political statement by simply refusing to catch a pass? Where does it end? Players work for owners. If owners don’t care then fans have to decide if they don’t care and support the team or move their loyalty, money and support to another team. Fans always have options. Players average almost 3 million a year based on advertising and ticket sales.

I totally support freedom of speech. I also support being a good employee. The owners and the league have to work this out and the fans have to decide who or what they can support. Fans as a whole will determine the future of the game and just how much politics they can stand at sporting events.

I am hoping that all participants of sports in America will show up to play the game this weekend. It has been reported that the Denver Broncos will be standing Sunday as Chicago and Green Bay did Thursday.

If athletes want to go out on the street and yell and scream or get on their knees after the game then let it be. This is where other Americans have to protest.

My wife and I went into a restaurant to eat today. We had a peaceful enjoyable meal.

None of the servers or cooks made any political remarks or political gestures that I saw.

We went into a large grocery store and bought a few groceries. We walked the aisles and bought our food without any of the grocery store employees making any political speeches or political gestures. I would never expect to hear or see political commentary in a restaurant or a grocery store.

There should be other places where Americans can tune the daily cares of life out and think about something else. Sporting events should be one of those places where we can enjoy athletic competition, a hot dog and a fun time with family and friends. It should be a place where we can come together and for just a brief moment enjoy and celebrate being United Americans, even if only for a moment.

Glenn Mollette is a syndicated columnist and author of twelve books. He is read in all 50 states.

Prayer for today Heavenly Father, help me to get away from doubt that leads to despair. Give me a vision of hope that is stayed on faith. May I be conscious and appreciative of my privileges while they come to me and make them immortal.

Amen.

A verse to share But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

—Luke 6:35

The GOP identity crisis

The Republican Party can’t pass Obamacare repeal, but it can nominate Roy Moore.

This is the state of the GOP in a nutshell. It is a party locked in mortal combat between an establishment that is ineffectual and unimaginative and a populist wing that is ineffectual and inflamed.

Donald Trump’s ascendance created an identity crisis in the party that hasn’t been resolved, and the hope that it could be papered over with legislative accomplishments and signing ceremonies has come a cropper.

It’d be hard to design a primary fight more characteristic of the GOP’s current state than Luther Strange vs.

Roy Moore.

There is nothing distinctive about Strange except his height, his name and the dubious circumstances of his appointment. He was the state attorney general investigating disgraced Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley, who ended up appointing him to the Senate seat vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions not long before Bentley resigned because of a sex

side. The president presumably won’t let that happen again.

The biggest loser in Alabama was Mitch McConnell. He is certainly the best Republican Senate leader in a generation. The conservative grass roots, though, has never been fond of Senate leaders who inevitably reflect the caution and process-obsession of the institution.

The result in Alabama will render Trump even more up for grabs. Is he going to simply move on and work with the congressional leadership on the next big priority, tax reform? Is he going to exercise the “Chuck and Nancy” option? Is he going to double down on his base? All of the above? Does he know?

Trump’s problem isn’t that he threw in with the establishment, as his most fervent supporters believe; it is that he threw in with an establishment that had no idea how to process his victory and integrate populism into the traditional Republican agenda.

One of the many causes of the failure of Obamacare repeal is that Repub-

licans didn’t emphasize the economic interests of the working-class voters who propelled Trump to victory.

Out of the gate, tax reform looks to have a similar problem -- the Trumpist element is supposed to be a middleclass tax cut, but it’s not obvious that it delivers one.

This gets to a fundamental failing of the populists.

The president and his backers haven’t thought through what a workable populist platform is besides inveighing against internal party enemies, igniting cable TVfriendly controversies and overinvesting in symbolic measures like the wall.

If the populists don’t like the results, they should take their own political project more seriously, if they are capable.

A success on taxes would provide some respite from the party’s internal dissension, yet the medium-term forecast has to be for more recrimination than governing. Whatever the core competency of the national Republican Party is at the moment, it certainly isn’t forging coherence or creating legislative achievements.

Do facts matter in national anthem protests?

Where was the angry left when Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg called the national anthem protests “dumb and disrespectful”?

Let’s focus on the “dumb” part.

NFL player Colin Kaepernick, who started the protests, did so over the supposed widespread instances of police brutality against blacks. Kaepernick said, “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. ... There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.” According to the Centers for Disease Control, since 1968 police killings of blacks have declined nearly 75 percent. According to The Washington Post, almost 500 whites were killed by cops in 2015, an average of more than one a day. Two hundred fifty-nine blacks were killed by the police.

Most suspects killed by police had a weapon.

Now for perspective.

Do you know anyone who has been struck by lightning? Neither do most people. Yet each year an average of about 300 Americans are killed or injured by lightning. That’s approximately 40 more than the number of blacks killed by the police in 2015. Is there an “epidemic” of Americans being struck and injured by lightning?

We don’t know the number

scandal.

S i n c e Strange would be a thoroughly adequate time-server, Rich the estabLowry l i s h m e n t piled in beNational hind him Review like it was trying to save Arthur Vandenberg.

As for Moore, the twiceformer chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court is to the judiciary what Joe Arpaio is to sheriffdom -- neither was particularly good at their precise duties, but both had a knack for the theatrical, polarizing cause.

It isn’t shocking that Moore prevailed. Sharron Angle, Christine O’Donnell and Richard Mourdock all won primaries in 2010-2012 in less conservative states based on anti-establishment energy, although under a tea party/constitutionalist banner rather than a Trumpist/ populist one.

It is an irony that in a race featuring a candidate as Trumpian as they come, Trump was on the other

of black men injured by lightning every year, but let’s assume the number is 7 percent Larry of the toElder tal people struck by Columnist lightning, mirroring the percentage of the black male population in America. That brings the average number of black men injured by lightning to about 21.

Out of the 965 people killed by the police in 2015 (as of Dec. 24), the Post reported (on Dec. 26) that “less than 4 percent” involved an unarmed black man and a white cop, the fact pattern most commonly referred to by anti-police activists like Black Lives Matter. Last year, The Washington Post put the number of unarmed black men killed by the police at 17, less than the number of blacks likely struck by lightning. Twenty-two unarmed whites were killed by the police. Any death that results from police misconduct is one death too many, but the point is that police killing of a suspect is rare, no matter the race of the suspect or the cop. And a police shooting of an unarmed black male is still more rare.

But blacks are routinely and disproportionately being stopped, pulled over and/or arrested due to po-

lice misconduct, right?

No, not according to numerous studies, many by the government. Take traffic stops. In 2013, the National Institute of Justice, the research and evaluation agency of the Department of Justice, published a study of whether the police, as a result of racial bias, stop blacks more than other drivers. The conclusion? Any racial disparity in traffic stops is due to “differences in offending” in addition to “differences in exposure to the police” and “differences in driving patterns.”

According to Philippe Lemoine, writing in National Review, a white person is, on average, more likely to have interactions with the police in any year than a black person, 20.7 percent vs. 17.5 percent. It is true that a black person is more likely to have multiple contacts with the police. But according to the data, multiple contacts with the police are rare, as well. Lemoine writes that 1.2 percent of white men have more than three contacts with the police in a year versus 1.5 percent of black men.

But what about the experience of a black person with the police versus that of a white person? The DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics regularly studies this, too.

Every year, the BJS surveys a representative sample of 70,000 people. Among the questions, the survey asks

World Wide Web: www.dailycorinthian.com To Sound Off: E-mail:

email: news@dailycorinthian.com Circulation 287-6111 Classified Adv. 287-6147

whether respondents had contact with the police in the last 12 months. If the answer is “yes,” the survey asks a number of follow-up questions, including about use of force.

Lemoine writes: “Only 0.6 percent of black men experience physical force by the police in any given year, while approximately 0.2 percent of white men do. ...

Moreover, keep in mind that these tallies of police violence include violence that is legally justified.” And keep in mind the much higher levels of crime by mostly black males. It is estimated that half of all homicides are committed by, and mostly against, black males.

Recently, in Illinois, in a kids’ 8-and-under football league, the entire team, which appeared to be all black, including the coach, took a knee during the national anthem. Asked why, one third-grade player parroted Kaepernick, saying, according to the coach, “Because black people are getting killed, and nobody’s going to jail.”

Facts don’t matter. The coach, presented with a teachable moment, fumbled it away.

Life lessons are learned from theft of plums

BY JIMMY C REED Columnist

In T. S. Eliot’s poem, “The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock,” the narrator, Prufrock himself, deals with a number of problems aging men face, and toward the end of the poem, ponders two of them.

Speculating on ways to disguise the fact that his plumage is thinning, he asks, “Shall I part my hair behind?” And because his bowels — no longer young and supple, but rebellious toward any foods less milder than corn flakes, asks, “Do I dare to eat a peach?”

A geriatric myself, I understand Prufrock’s fading confidence, especially when eating fruit. I love all the fruits that God gave His children to enjoy, but cannot be certain about the gastronomical consequences of eating them. Nowadays, if I ate a green plum, I’d immediately contract what my mother referred to as the

“green plum quickstep.”

But that wasn’t the case when my best pal Dean and I were students in Mrs. Webb’s class. Bless her heart, she was so tall and skinny that a child’s drawing of a stick woman would accurately portray her. Among us students she was known as “Spider Webb.”

However, a nobler, kinder lady never lived, as Dean and I found out when her plum tree began loading up with huge, juicy, green plums, which we called “green-uns.”

Spider’s home was across the street from school, and during recess, Dean and I would sneak around back to her garden, climb the tree, and stuff our pockets with pillaged plums.

To this day, I remember how clusters of green leaves camouflaged the plums. Finding them was a feat in itself, and therefore made feasting on

them more enjoyable. In the remainder of the day’s classes, we’d sit in back, ignore the teacher, and pass the shaker back and forth, savoring the salty sourness.

As thieves are wont to do, we became careless after several successful stealing sorties. One day Mrs. Webb spied us slipping into her backyard, and informed the school principal and the police chief. Spider’s web had snared us.

Like two treed raccoons looking down from our arboreal perches, we knew the three angry faces below meant no escape. The chief and the principal decided we should be suspended from school, but the owner of the plum tree chose to make our misdeed a learning experience.

“Gentlemen,” she said, “I will attend to this matter in my own way.”

Confident that Dean and I would never raid her plum tree again, she

offered us two punishment options: We must confess to our parents what we had done, or we must stay in the classroom during recess every day and study. In a heartbeat, we chose the latter.

On the final day of school before summer break, Mrs. Webb called Dean and me to her desk, handed each one of us a jar of her prize-winning plum jam, gave us a hug, and dismissed us.

The lesson she taught us would last a lifetime: Dean and I never stole anything again — especially green-uns.

Trump lashes out at mayor of San Juan who requested aid

BY JILL COLVIN Associated Press

BRANCHBURG, N.J. — President Donald Trump on Saturday lashed out at the mayor of San Juan and other officials in storm-ravaged Puerto Rico, contemptuous of their claims of a laggard U.S. response to the natural disaster that has im-

periled the island’s future.

“Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help,” Trump said in a series of tweets a day after the capital city’s mayor appealed for help “to save us from dying.”

“They want everything

to be done for them when it should be a community effort,” Trump wrote from his New Jersey golf club.

The tweets were a biting attack on the leader of a community in crisis.

After 10 days of desperation, with many still unable to access essentials including food and water,

San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz accused the Trump administration Friday of “killing us with the inefficiency” after Hurricane Maria. She implored the president, who is set to visit the U.S. territory on Tuesday, to “make sure somebody is in charge that is up to the task of saving lives.”

Amid outcry over Confederate markers, new ones are going up around South

BY JEFF MARTIN AND BRYNN ANDERSON Associated Press

ATLANTA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; While Confederate statues and monuments around the nation get removed, defaced, covered up or toppled, some new memorials are being erected, by people who insist their only purpose is to honor the soldiers who died for the South.

Supporters of these new Civil War monuments describe a determination to hold onto their understanding of history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I want to get across is how much the South suffered, not only through the war but after the war, during the Reconstruction years,â&#x20AC;? said David Coggins. His Confederate Veterans Memorial Park in Brantley, Alabama, dedicated a memorial to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unknown Alabama Confederate Soldiersâ&#x20AC;? in September.

Others say race has nothing to do with these new monuments, unlike those erected in the early 20th century. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem was with some of the other statues that were put up, that were basically intended to intimidate people,â&#x20AC;?

said Danny Francis, commander of a Sons of Confederate Veterans unit in South Carolina. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not trying to oppress anyone - weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just historians. We welcome everybody.â&#x20AC;?

Francisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; group dedicated a granite memorial Saturday on private land where Civil War enthusiasts from North and South re-enact the Battle of Aiken each year. The marker says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dedicated to the immortal spirit of the Confederate Cause, and to those men and women who gave so much to save what they considered so dear.â&#x20AC;?

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way around the discriminatory meaning of such messages, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to heal a nation, and with more and more of these going up, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a continuous slap in the face,â&#x20AC;? said Benard Simelton, president of the NAACPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alabama conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These Confederate generals and soldiers committed acts of treason. They fought against the Union, but â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;forâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; slavery. The Confederacy fought to maintain the status quo

Supporters of these new Civil War monuments describe a determination to hold onto their understanding of history. of slavery and white supremacy.â&#x20AC;?

In New Orleans, Baltimore, Richmond and other Southern cities, some political leaders now openly challenge the idea that these markers are about â&#x20AC;&#x153;heritage.â&#x20AC;?

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve described how many were erected at a time when white mobs were terrorizing black communities, and states were reversing Reconstruction-era gains by former slaves and imposing discriminatory Jim Crow laws to ensure white power.

Supporters of the new markers say theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got nothing to do with that part of history, and no link to the hate groups defending other Confederate monuments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for all the unknown soldiers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care if they were black white or yellow or whatever,â&#x20AC;? said Joe Clark, southeast brigade commander with the Sons of Confederate Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Alabama division.

Clark and his red-shirt-

ed brigade carried battle flags and fired a cannon to dedicate Cogginsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new memorial, a white tombstone surrounded by a tall black iron fence in a park that already displayed replicas of Civil War artillery and Confederate flags. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People stop and they have their children with them and they take pictures,â&#x20AC;? said Clark, who calls it a nice place to rest for travelers on Interstate 65. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never had any complaints that I know of whatsoever.â&#x20AC;?

Another memorial, erected last year on Courthouse Hill in Dahlonega, Georgia, was about 17 years in the making, said Tim Ragland, commander of the Blue Ridge Rifles Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1860. Its dedication, etched into the black marble, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for the local men â&#x20AC;&#x153;who fought, who died, those who returned home, and to the cause in which they believed.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are a historical

Tillerson says U.S. has direct channels to talk to North Korea Associated Press

BEIJING â&#x20AC;&#x201D; U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson acknowledged on Saturday that the United State is maintaining direct channels of communications with North Korea even as tensions rise over the Northâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear and missile programs and the countriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; leaders spar through bellicose name-calling.

Tillerson said the U.S. was probing North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s willingness to talk, and called for a calming of the situation on the Korean Peninsula, adding it was incumbent on the North to halt the missile launches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have lines of communication to Pyongyang.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not in a dark situation, a blackout,â&#x20AC;? Tillerson told reporters during a visit to China. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a couple ... three channels open to Pyongyang. We can talk to them, we do talk to them.â&#x20AC;?

No elaboration about those channels or the substance of any discussions came from Tillerson, who met with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other

top officials in Beijing.

While Tillerson affirmed that the U.S. would not recognize North Korea as a nuclear power, he also said the Trump administration had no intention of trying to oust Kim. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Despite assurances that the United States is not interested in promoting the collapse of the current regime, pursuing regime change, accelerating reunification of the peninsula or mobilizing forces north of the DMZ, North Korean officials have shown no indication that they are interested in or are ready for talks regarding denuclearization,â&#x20AC;? U.S. State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said in a statement.

The Korean Peninsula remains in a technical state of war, and the Demilitarized Zone divides North and South Korea.

Since President Donald Trump took office in January, the U.S. has restored a diplomatic back-channel between the State Department and North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

The NAACP said such claims deliberately ignore what the Civil War was all about. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The historical meaning, intent, and outright disrespect noted in these Confederate symbols and monuments re-ignite the negative history and memories associated with them,â&#x20AC;?

mission at the United Nations. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s traditionally been a way for the two sides to communicate because they lack formal diplomatic ties.

The main aim of the initial contacts was to seek the freedom of several American citizens imprisoned in North Korea, although U.S. officials have told The Associated Press that there were broader discussions about U.S.North Korean relations.

Those contacts, however, have failed to reduce the deep mistrust between the adversaries and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear to what extent they have endured the current spike in tensions.

North Korea has in recent months tested longrange missiles that potentially could reach the U.S., and on Sept. 3 conducted its largest nuclear test explosion to date.

The standoff has entered a new, more dangerous phase since then as North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Trump have exchanged personal insults and threats of war. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the most immediate action that we need is to calm things down,â&#x20AC;?

Tillerson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a little overheated right now. And I think we need to calm them down first.â&#x20AC;? He did not directly address the impact of Trumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own rhetoric. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously it would help if North Korea would stop firing off missiles. That would calm things down a lot,â&#x20AC;? Tillerson said.

Trump gave a combative speech recently at the U.N. General Assembly in which he mocked Kim as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rocket Manâ&#x20AC;? on a â&#x20AC;&#x153;suicide mission.â&#x20AC;? Trump said that if â&#x20AC;&#x153;forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.â&#x20AC;? Kim responded by saying he would â&#x20AC;&#x153;tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.â&#x20AC;?

Tillersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stop in the Chinese capital was helping lay the groundwork for a November state visit by Trump, part of a five-nation swing through Asia.

Trump has pressed for sterner measures against the North by China, the Northâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief trading partner and source of aid and diplomatic support.

Government jobs sprouting as legal pot looms in California LOS ANGELES — Scientists. Tax collectors.

Typists. Analysts. Lawyers. And more scientists.

Recreational marijuana use becomes legal in California in 2018, and one of the things to blossom in the emerging industry isn’t green and leafy - it’s government jobs.

The state is on a hiring binge to fill what eventually will be hundreds of new government positions by 2019 intended to bring order to the legal pot economy, from keeping watch on what’s seeping into streams near cannabis grows to running background checks on storefront sellers who want government licenses.

Thousands of additional jobs are expected to be added by local governments.

The swiftly expanding bureaucracy represents just one aspect of the complex challenge faced by California: Come January, the state will unite its longstanding medical cannabis industry with the newly legalized recreational one, creating what will be the United States’ largest legal pot economy.

Geologist: Yosemite rock falls don’t mean more danger YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. — Rock falls that killed a British tourist and injured two other people in Yosemite National Park aren’t stopping climbers intent on scaling the sheer walls of El Capitan and a park geologist says there’s

no more danger than usual.

“If we felt any area was unsafe we wouldn’t be allowing people in there,” Greg Stock said Friday. He and a U.S. Geological Service geologist were studying El Capitan after immense slabs of granite — one about the size of a 36-story building — successively broke loose from the formation and plunged down in huge, flinty clouds that swept through the valley floor.

The park typically sees about 80 rock falls each year.

Stock said it’s impossible to predict when and where a rock fall will strike and detecting shifts in rocks could be a sign that one will break loose days or maybe years later.

The elite climbers who flock to the park using ropes and their fingertips to defy death as they scale sheer cliff faces know the risk but also know it’s rare to get hit and killed by the rocks.

“It’s a lot like a lightning strike,” said Alex Honnold, who made history June 3 for being the first to climb El Capitan alone and without ropes. “Sometimes geology just happens.”

Officer’s death intensifies scrutiny of herbal supplement ALBANY, N.Y. — An upstate New York police officer’s death is the latest to raise questions about the herbal supplement kratom.

Sgt. Matt Dana died this summer at his home in the Adirondack Mountain town of Tupper Lake.

it to an overdose of kratom, an herb from Southeast Asia commonly sold as an energy booster and painkiller.

Kratom advocates fear the officer’s death could be used in efforts to ban the supplement.

Six states have already done so and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency proposed a ban last year, citing 15 previous deaths from 2014 to 2016.

The DEA later withdrew the proposal and now says it will make a decision after further study by the Food and Drug Administration.

U.S. faces off with itself in gay skydiver discrimination case NEW YORK — Before he died in a wingsuit accident, Donald Zarda filed a lawsuit claiming he had been sacked from a skydiving instruction job for telling a client he was gay.

Now, a federal appeals court in New York is trying to decide whether U.S. anti-discrimination law protects employees from being fired over their sexual orientation.

One government agency, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, says yes.

The Department of Justice says no.

The rare face-off between two executive branch entities played out Tuesday before the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

For about two hours, the judges questioned lawyers about a law barring employment discrimination on the basis of “race, color, religion, sex or national origin.”

A ruling is not expected for some time.

Mississippi group aids those renewing immigration status JACKSON — An immigrants’ rights group is helping Mississippi immigrants fill out paperwork to renew their status protecting them from deportation.

The Mississippi Immigrants Rights Alliance is offering help ahead of the Thursday deadline for people to renew their Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals documentation. That program, created by President Barack Obama, aids people who were brought to the country illegally as children or by parents who overstayed visas. President Donald Trump recently announced a plan to end the program in six months if Congress doesn’t continue it.

The alliance is offering legal advice, and says it may be able to assist people in paying the $495 renewal fee.

It’s holding workshops Saturday in its Jackson office, and urges those who can’t attend to visit Renew DACA Today on Facebook.

School system’s suit over tax increase awaits new judge PASCAGOULA — A Mississippi Gulf Coast school system must wait until next week for a judge to hear a lawsuit over an aborted property tax increase.

The Pascagoula-Gautier school district sued the city of Pascagoula Thursday, after the City Council took back a tax increase.

The Sun Herald reports a judge recused himself from a hearing Friday, citing another ongoing lawsuit over school property taxes. A judge from

outside Jackson County must be appointed.

Pascagoula approved a tax increase for operating costs and district borrowing to build a performing arts center, install stadium turf and renovate buildings.

But after Gautier city officials protested, the Pascagoula council revoked the increase Sept.

21, saying school officials didn’t meet legal requirements.

Mississippi school districts can force governing bodies to raise property taxes, within limits.

Mississippi Forestry Commission names new fire chief JACKSON — Randy Giachelli will be the Mississippi Forestry Commission’s new fire chief, starting Sunday.

State Forester Charlie Morgan made the announcement Friday, citing Giachelli’s experience. The incoming chief started his firefighting career with the commission and worked his way up through the ranks.

Right now, he serves as the incident commander for Mississippi’s AllHazard Incident Management Response Team.

Giachelli has worked on federal firefighting deployments in Texas, Minnesota, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, California, Oregon, Wyoming, and Montana.

3 sentenced to prison for looting Indian mound OXFORD — Three Mississippi residents have been sent to prison for looting an Indian mound.

WTVA-TV reports that the three are among seven people recently convicted of removing artifacts in 2014 from the Doskie Indian Mound on federal property in north-

eastern Mississippi.

Thirty-four-year-old Matthew Glen Arnold, of Booneville, pleaded guilty to six counts of violating an archaeological resource in March and was sentenced Friday to 20 months in prison.

Tyler Wilemon, a 22-year-old Booneville resident, pleaded guilty to one count in May and was sentenced Thursday to five years in prison.

Sandra Arnold, of Iuka, pleaded guilty to two counts in April and was sentenced Sept. 7 to about a year in prison and one year of probation. The 62-year-old was also ordered to pay nearly $19,000 in restitution.

Four others await sentencing.

State says Cat Island beach rebuilding to finish in October GULFPORT — A beach on Mississippi’s westernmost barrier island is being rebuilt.

Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann said Friday that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is pumping nearly 50,000 cubic yards of sand daily onto Cat Island’s East Beach.

Hosemann, who oversees state lands, says the renourishment project will finish in midOctober.

The federal government gave Mississippi an additional 492 acres on the Gulf of Mexico island in December. The Corps of Engineers paid BP PLC $13.7 million using federal aid from 2005’s Hurricane Katrina, and is spending another $16 million on the beach.

The oil company bought the land while cleaning up 2010’s Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Hosemann says rebuilding the beach keeps the island from eroding.

NEW YORK — Just over a year after Walmart spent more than $3 billion for the fast-growing online retailer Jet.com, it will launch a higher-end grocery line targeting millennials as it tries to contain Amazon.com.

Amazon last month closed on its acquisition of Whole Foods, intensifying the competition between Walmart, Target, and other supermarkets as all of them fight to win

a bigger slice of the grocery market.

Jet.com said Friday that the new brand, called Uniquely J, will focus on younger customers in urban areas, offering them select coffee, olive oil, paper towels, and other products.

Amazon cut prices almost immediately on a number of items at Whole Foods after it closed on the deal. Walmart has done the same over the past month.

What’s important to you? Let’s talk.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian

Watch for the special edition with over 30 pages full of local features and columns coming out on Oct. 17.

Older couple mourns loss of friends, connections D E A R ABBY: I am 74, and my wife is 71. We are lonely.

All of our friends have Abigail died, and we no relaVan Buren have tives in this state.

Dear Abby We both have health issues that keep us mostly housebound.

That leaves out volunteering and sports, and the high cost of gas is a factor.

We live in our own home and want to continue living here.

Our home is in a development consisting of busy families involved in their own lives, or too young to bother with a couple of older people.

We tried church, only to find that everyone there is as involved in their own lives as our neighbors are.

I fear the thought of one of us dying and leaving the other to possibly die alone in our house, not to be missed or discovered until much later.

How can we have friends like we used to have, and not shallow acquaintances? — FRIGHTENED OF THE FUTURE IN PENNSYLVANIA

DEAR FRIGHTENED: If there are senior citizen centers in your community, I recommend you contact them.

That way you can meet new people and form relationships with contemporaries.

Also, these centers usually have geriatric specialists or social workers on staff with whom you can discuss your concerns.

That said, it’s important to remember that the kind of friendships you and your wife used to have take time to develop — they don’t happen overnight.

Another thought: You say most of your neighbors are busy with their children.

Perhaps you could reach out and offer to baby-sit for some of them in your home, if the parents would like a night off.

I’ll bet some of them will take you up on it.

DEAR ABBY: I was recently in the bakery section of our neighborhood grocery store.

A woman came rushing in carrying a cake that had been at least three-fourths eaten and made a scene, saying the cake was terrible and demanding that she be given a new one.

To stop the scene, the store manager gave her a new one, even though she had managed to eat most of the “terrible” cake.

The next night, my husband and I went to dinner at a nice steak house.

The couple sitting next to us ate almost their entire dinner before complaining to the manager that the steaks were awful and demanding their meals for free.

Has this become acceptable?

If something is wrong with the food, shouldn’t management be told after the first bite?

It looks to me like these people are looking for a free ride. — OFFENDED IN KANSAS DEAR OFFENDED: It certainly appears that way.

The most effective way to demonstrate that an item of food is inedible is to NOT eat it.

In situations like this, the restaurant manager will sometimes offer as an accommodation a free dessert rather than write off the entire meal.

As to what happened at the grocery, if the complainer was a good customer, then what the manager did was a wise public relations gesture.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You’ve been more ambitious in different stages of your life, but right now you hardly know what to want. Everything comes with its own problems, challenges and life-altering properties. Maybe it’s OK to want nothing for a while.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The problem of the day will be a common one, yet it’s still an opportunity for you to meet with uncommonly good help and support. You’ll magically find assistance that’s the best fit for you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Part of learning a lesson is deciding how you will handle similar circumstances in the future.

You may not do exactly as you decide, but look forward to the test. You’re homing in on the new you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

There’s something you want to forget, but it’s not going to go away by your just willing it so. Instead, you need a replacement thought or action to gravitate to-

ward. That will start the change.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Young children tend to react to events as though each state of things were the only way they will be forevermore. Of course, every state is temporary. Knowing this is one way to get past it with more grace.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

It is foolish to make decisions based solely on logic and intellect. Feelings have real-world effects that are often more impactful than any intellectual reality.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The tendency to ruminate on an idea may very well be related to biochemistry and not in any way indicative of the actual importance, relevance or soundness of the idea.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Someone loves you deeply. Remembering this will make you feel braver, but experiencing it in real time will make you feel more powerful — much bigger than the problem at hand.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The internet is filled with

wonders and horrors, often on the same page. Because you can’t unsee what you’ve seen, it’s more important than ever (on a wild and wide-open kind of day like today) that you virtually play it safe.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The psychic rules apply the same as the rules of the physical world do. If you lean toward things you don’t have, you’ll topple. The way to attainment is to stand straight, open your arms and invite life in.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You’re so creative that it’s easy for you to construct in your fantasy life a beautiful future you’d like to participate in. But instead of looking wistfully into the future, make now special by honoring all you have.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If the other person leaves, hangs up or in any way ends the interaction before you give the signals, don’t take offense — nor should you take chase. It’s a test of your confidence. Stand strong and you’ll be impressive.

Big plays power Auburn over Miss State The Associated Press

AUBURN, Ala. — Jarrett Stidham passed for 264 yards and two touchdowns, and Kerryon Johnson ran for three scores to lead No. 13 Auburn to a 49-10 victory over No. 24 Mississippi State on Saturday night.

The Tigers (4-1, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) established themselves as the most likely challenger to No. 1 Alabama in the Western Division with an explosive offensive performance. The Bulldogs (3-2, 1-2) have lost two straight lopsided games since blowing out LSU to start a string of three matchups with Top 15 teams.

Stidham launched a handful of deep balls for Auburn, including a 47-yard touch-

down to a wide-open Will Hastings and a 57-yarder to Eli Stove from his own end zone. He wound up 13-of-16 passing.

Johnson gained 116 yards, including an early 59-yarder, in a strong follow-up to his five-touchdown effort in a 51-14 romp over Missouri.

Backup quarterback Malik Willis got into the act with a 67-yard run in the final minutes, thrilling the smattering of fans still remaining. Mississippi State’s Nick Fitzgerald passed for 157 yards and ran for 56 but was intercepted twice.

The Bulldogs had two touchdowns overturned on replay in the first half, ultimately scoring after a ruling that Fitzgerald was tackled inside the 1. Earlier, Jef-

fery Simmons knocked the ball loose from Stidham and Montez Sweat picked it up and took it to the end zone.

The ball had been blown dead after the official called it an incomplete pass. Replay ruled it a fumble and gave it to Mississippi State at Auburn’s 32, but the Bulldogs wound up only with a field goal.

The takeaway Mississippi State: Moved the ball at times but went 5 of 19 on third down and converted just two of six fourth-down attempts. That included a failed fake punt in the first half. Fitzgerald completed 13 of 33 passes and ran 13 times.

Auburn: The defense kept up its strong play while of-

fensively Auburn had seven plays of 30-plus yards. Stidham set up one score with a 49-yard pass to Darius Slayton after Johnson took a direct snap and Stidham got the ball on a reverse.

Fourth & go Auburn also had a fourthdown gamble, with good results. Johnson scored on a fourth-down run in the first quarter. Auburn initially lined up to kick before coach Gus Malzahn called a timeout amid boos from the crowd, and decided to go for it.

Up next Mississippi State has an open date before hosting BYU on Oct. 14.

Mississippi State quarterback Nick Fitzgerald and the Bulldogs found the going rough for the second straight week on the road, dropping a 49-10 decision to Auburn on The Plains. Fitzgerald managed only 13/33 for 157 yards and two picks in his second consecutive sub-par performance. The ’Dogs could manage but 351 yards of total offense with 194 coming on the ground. Mississippi State has a week off before hosting Brigham Young on Oct. 14 at Davis-Wade Stadium.

No. 1 Alabama crushes Mississippi The Associated Press

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Jalen Hurts threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score and No. 1 Alabama let loose on Mississippi 66-3 on Saturday night, emphatically putting down a problematic foe in recent years with the highest-scoring performance by the Crimson Tide in 11 years under Nick Saban.

Ole Miss (2-2, 0-1 Southeastern Conference) had won two of last three meetings with Alabama (5-0, 2-0), scoring 109 points — more than any other Tide opponent over the last three years.

The Rebels are the only SEC team to beat the Tide since 2014, and they handed Alabama its only home loss in the past 30 games at BryantDenny Stadium.

The way Tide players and Saban were talking leading up to the game it was as

dominant

Saban said sometimes the “ultimate disrespect” is when another team quietly believes it has your number. Not anymore. Coach Hugh Freeze is gone and the days of Ole Miss being a threat to Alabama left with him and all those bluechippers he brought to Oxford.

The Tide made it look easy.

Hurts hooked up with a wideopen Josh Jacobs down the middle for an 18-yard score early in the second quarter, and then mimicked holstering his finger guns after tossing the TD pass. Hurts tumbled over tacklers on a 10-yard keeper that made it 35-3 at the half.

In the last two weeks, Alabama has outscored Vanderbilt and Ole Miss by a combined 125-3. The 63-point margin was the Tide’s largest Please see CRUSHES | 11A

No. 7 Georgia rolls to shutout of Tennessee The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Jake Fromm threw a touchdown pass and ran for two more scores Saturday as No. 7 Georgia rolled to a 41-0 blowout of Tennessee, which suffered its first shutout loss in nearly a quarter-century.

Nick Chubb added 109 yards rushing as Georgia raced to its first 5-0 start since 2012, the last year the Bulldogs reached the Southeastern Conference championship game.

Tennessee (3-2, 0-2) was shut out for the first time since a 31-0 loss to Florida in 1994.

The Bulldogs got more good news in the fourth quarter when quarterback Jacob Eason made his first appearance since spraining

41 his left knee in the season opener. Fromm was 7 of 15 for 84 yards and also rushed for 20 yards before giving way to Eason with the game well in hand.

Before Saturday, none of the last six games in this series had been decided by more than eight points. Each of the last three years, the winning team had erased a double-digit deficit.

There would be no frantic finishes or dramatic come-

0 backs this time. Georgia (2-0 SEC) made sure of it.

The game’s first play from scrimmage set the tone for the rest of the day. Georgia’s Tyrique McGhee picked off Quinten Dormady’s pass at Tennessee’s 27-yard line to set up Rodrigo Blankenship’s 38-yard field goal.

That started a tough afternoon for Dormady, who was

5 of 16 for 64 yards with two interceptions before Jarrett Guarantano replaced him late in the third quarter.

Fromm was much more effective.

The poised freshman found Javon Wims for a 12-yard touchdown pass on a thirdand-5 play to give Georgia a 10-0 lead in the first quarter.

He added touchdown runs of 9 and 4 yards in the second quarter as Georgia led 24-0 by halftime.

His biggest mistake came on the first play of the second quarter when Tennessee’s Justin Martin picked off a pass at the Georgia 27, but the Vols failed to capitalize. Tennessee’s best scoring chance vanished when a Please see SHUTOUT | 11A

CRUSHES five sacks in the first four games, Alabama had five since beating Vandy 66-3 against Ole Miss. in 1979.

CONTINUED FROM 10A

The takeaway Ole Miss: Can interim coach Matt Luke keep this Ole Miss team, which can’t play in the postseason because of self-imposed bowl ban for NCAA infractions, focused and playing hard this season? There are winnable games in the SEC West, but will the Rebels’ hearts be into playing out the string?

Alabama: One problem (if you want to call it that) the Tide was having early this season was getting to the quarterback. After registering

Hand injured

Alabama lost defensive end Da’Shawn Hand to what appeared to be a left knee injury in the third quarter when he was blocked low by an Ole Miss player. Hand, a senior, was helped off the field by trainers and then carted to the locker room.

Up next Ole Miss: The Rebels are on the road again.

They will bring a twogame losing streak to No. 13 Auburn.

Alabama: The Tide travels to Texas A&M.

SHUTOUT CONTINUED FROM 10A

shotgun snap from center Jashon Robertson appeared to hit his rear end and came in low to Dormady, who couldn’t handle it. Georgia’s Lorenzo Carter recovered the fumble at the Georgia 29.

Even Tennessee’s biggest gain of the afternoon resulted in a turnover, as Aaron Davis forced a fumble by John Kelly that J.R. Reed recovered at the end of a 44-yard completion.

It was such a bad day for Tennessee that punter Trevor Daniel, one of the Vols’ most effective players this season, had a rare misstep. Daniel’s low punt early in the fourth quarter went off the face of Georgia’s D’Andre Walker to set up the Bulldogs’ final touchdown. Tennessee’s Darrell Taylor was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct and ejected from the game on Georgia’s final touchdown drive.

The takeaway Georgia: Now that Eason has returned to action, Georgia must decide how to use its quarterbacks the rest of the way. Fromm has played well enough the last month that Georgia coach Kirby Smart could have quite a dilemma on his hands once Eason’s back at full strength.

Tennessee: The Vols have plenty of questions to answer in their bye week. They need to decide whether to stick with Dormady or give Guarantano more playing time. If Dormady keeps the job, he must do better at avoiding turnovers. Tennessee also needs more consistency from its offensive line, which hasn’t created enough running room.

Up next Georgia is at Vanderbilt.

Tennessee has next week off before hosting South Carolina on Oct. 14.

Bryant leads No. 2 Clemson past No. 12 Hokies The Associated Press

BLACKSBURG, Va. — Kelly Bryant ran around and away from No. 12 Virginia Tech and led No. 2 Clemson to a 31-10 victory Saturday night, the Tigers’ third in three games against teams in the Top 25.

Making just his fifth start, the junior ran for 94 yards, hit Tavien Feaster with a pass the speedy running back took 60 yards for a score and avoided mistakes.

He also kept alive a late scoring drive after scrambling right on a play that started at the 5, dodging three Hokies, shaking free from an ankle tackle and eventually turning back upfield at the 23.

He zig-zagged all the way back to the 4.

The defending national

champion Tigers (5-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) have also beaten No. 13 Auburn 14-6 and No. 17 Louisville 47-21.

This triumph was their 12th in a row on the road, and fifth in a row against Virginia Tech, including the 2016 ACC championship.

Virginia Tech (4-1, 0-1) never mustered much offense and got its only touchdown after Isaiah Simmons made an ankle tackle on Greg Stroman’s 43-yard punt return to the Tigers 2. Sean Savoy ran it on the next play, but the Hokies had just 234 yards through three quarters.

Feaster and C.J. Fuller also scored on 1-yard runs for the Tigers, and Dorian O’Daniel returned an interception 22 yards for a

TD. Virginia Tech’s Josh Jackson threw two interceptions after throwing 11 touchdown passes and just one interception through four games.

He accounted for the final score with a 30-yard pass to Savoy with 1:32 remaining.

The takeaway Clemson: The Tigers’ defensive front was as stellar as Hokies coach Justin Fuente said it would be, giving Jackson little time to throw and seeming to close running lanes easily.

Despite some nicks in the secondary, the Clemson defensive backfield also ran step-for-step on long passing attempts by Jackson, while Kelly, who came in with three interceptions and two touch-

down passes, showed no inclination to be rattled in the rare moments when Virginia Tech applied pressure.

Virginia Tech: Despite playing the Tigers close in last year’s ACC championship, the Hokies didn’t appear quite ready for an opponent this good and seasoned after two straight appearances in the national championship game.

Their offensive line got very little push and the Tigers didn’t allow the Hokies’ to get much productivity from their favored short passing game.

Up next Clemson is at home against Wake Forest.

Virginia Teach heads out on the road against Boston College.

Gators handle Vandy, lose QB Del Rio The Associated Press

Florida 38 Vanderbilt 24 No. 21 Florida beat Vanderbilt 38-24 on Saturday despite losing starting quarterback Luke Del Rio for the season because of a broken left collarbone. It’s a potential crushing blow for a team trying to get to the Southeastern Conference championship game for the third consecutive year.

The Gators (3-1, 3-0 SEC) will now shift back to Franks, who was benched in two of his first three starts, and rely heavily on an emerging rushing attack.

If Lamical Perine and Malik Davis play like they did against the Commodores (3-2, 0-2), the Gators should have a good chance to win the Eastern Division again. Perine scored three touchdowns, and Davis added two more as Florida defeated the Commodores for the 26th time in the last 27 meetings.

Franks replaced Del Rio in the second quarter and turned in his most effective performance of the season. The redshirt freshman completed 10 of 14 passes for 185 yards, including a 49-yarder to Tyrie Cleveland that was nearly as perfect as his last pass in The Swamp.

“It’s hard when that stuff happens, when you get hurt like that,” Franks said. “I can only imagine what he’s going through, him and his family. It’s emotional. I definitely wanted to keep him in my prayers, especially when I was out there on the field.

The Gators tied an NCAA record by scoring in their 365th consecutive game.

Arkansas 42 New Mexico State 24

Austin Allen has spent much of the season so far trying to regain his form, his coolness and — more than anything — his fun on the football field. Even Razorbacks coach Bret Bielema took part in the postgame celebration following Arkansas 42-24 win over New Mexico State, taking part in some locker-room shenanigans by doing the Hokey Pokey for his players to watch.

“It was a sight,” Allen said. “It’s a tradition he’s been a part of when it comes to winning, and he wanted to let us try it out.

It was funny. He did, he showed us the ropes, and hopefully a lot more wins come so we can keep seeing him do it.”

Before they could enjoy their locker-room dance routine, though, the Razorbacks first had to hold off an explosive Aggies (2-3) offense led by senior quarterback Tyler Rogers who threw for 344 yards and two scores.

As good as the aerial attack was for the Aggies, Allen had plenty of success as well completing 19-of-26 for a seasonhigh 264 yards and three TD’s.

Devwah Whaley led the Arkansas rushing attack with 119 yards on 19 carries. The Razorbacks finished with a season-high 494 yards of total offense, including 230 on the ground.

Kentucky 24 Eastern Michigan 20 Benny Snell scored on a 12-yard run early in the fourth quarter after the second of Kentucky’s big special teams plays provided a cushion, and the Wildcats survived East-

ern Michigan 24-20 on Saturday.

With both schools looking to get back on track after tough conference losses, the Wildcats (41) eventually succeeded despite uneven play throughout their inaugural non-conference meeting with the Eagles (2-2).

A game that was tied at 14 at halftime began turning the Wildcats’ way when Tristan Yeomans recovered a muffed punt at EMU’s 42 and led to Austin MacGinnis’ 39-yard field goal.

Josh Paschal’s blocked punt early in the fourth was downed at EMU’s 12, and Snell busted through on the next play for a 10-point lead that stood just a week after Kentucky yielded 14 unanswered fourth-quarter points in a 28-27 loss to No. 21 Florida.

“We found ways to win the football game when we didn’t play our best,” Kentucky coach Mark Stoops said.

Ian Eriksen’s 2-yard TD run got EMU within 2420 and gave the Eagles one last chance, but Brogan Roback’s desperation pass was intercepted

by Mike Edwards in the end zone in the final seconds.

Troy 24 No. 25 LSU 21 Jordan Chunn ran for 191 yards and a touchdown, Troy’s defense forced four turnovers and the surging Trojans upset No. 25 LSU 24-21 on Saturday night.

Troy became the first team from outside the Southeastern Conference to win in LSU’s Death Valley since UAB in 2000. They snapped the Tigers’ streak of 49 straight home victories over non-league oppo-

Troy (4-1) raced to leads of 17-0 and 24-7 before Danny Etling’s fourth-quarter touchdown passes to Russell Gage and Foster Moreau got LSU as close as a field goal with 1:59 left. But after failing to recover an onside kick, LSU had only 23 seconds to get into field goal range, and any hope of that ended when Blace Brown intercepted Etling’s pass on the Troy 42 with 11 seconds to go LSU appeared to squander a scoring chance when receiver Derrick Dillon fumbled on the Troy 7.

But LSU’s defense got the ball right back inside the Troy 10 on Chunn’s fumble, and backup quarterback Myles Brennan found tight end Foster Moreau for a 7-yard TD pass, making it 17-7.

Both teams missed field goals of about 35 yards in the second quarter, and it appeared the score would be 7-0 at halftime when receiver John Johnson was tackled at the LSU 20 as time ran out. But of-

ficials reviewed the play and determined there should be 2 seconds left.

Troy capitalized with Evan Legassey’s 37-yard field goal to make it 10-0.

Texas A&M 24 South Carolina 17 Keith Ford ran for 70 yards and two touchdowns, including the goahead 17-yard score in the fourth quarter, to lift Texas A&M to a 24-17 win over South Carolina on Saturday night.

Freshman Kellen Mond threw for 159 yards and ran for 95 to help the Aggies (4-1, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) rally for the victory after trailing by a touchdown entering the fourth quarter.

Mond looked to have scored two plays earlier, but Camron Buckley delivered a helmet-to-helmet hit while blocking on the play and it was called back. Buckley, who was called for a holding penalty earlier in the drive, was ejected for targeting after the play was reviewed. Otaro Alaka

sacked Jake Bentley on third down on South Carolina’s next drive to force a punt.

Bentley threw for 256 yards and two touchdowns for South Carolina (3-2, 1-2), but he was sacked seven times behind a line that often didn’t give him enough time to make plays.

The Aggies took a 7-0 lead on a 1-yard touchdown run by Trayveon Williams early in the second quarter. South Carolina tied it up when Bentley wriggled out of a would-be sack and found Shi Smith wide open on a 45-yard touchdown pass to tie it at 7-all with about 13 minutes left in the second quarter.

South Carolina receiver Terry Googer was carted off the field on a stretcher after a hit on a punt. But school officials said he was moving all of his extremities after arriving at the hospital and coach Will Muschamp said on the television broadcast at halftime that he was OK.

Conservation Corner: National Wildlife Refuge Week is near Conservation

This year National Wildlife Refuge Week will be observed during the week of Oct. 8 –14. If you have never visited a refuge before, this would be a great time to plan to go.

The National Wildlife Refuge System helps to protect wildlife, generate jobs, provide clean air and water, reduce flooding, educate children about nature and offer protected places to fish and hike and enjoy the outdoors. Every state has at least one national wildlife refuge, many within an hour’s drive of most major cities.

In 1964, Congress passed the Wilderness Act. The 1964 law created the National Wilderness Preservation System, which protects nearly 110 million acres of wilderness nationwide. Of those, 20 million are on refuge land.

The wilderness is just that — wild land that is largely undeveloped and unmanaged — that can offer outstanding opportunities for wildlife observation, hiking, other non-motorized outdoor recreation and solitude.

National Wildlife Refuge Week highlights the value of national wildlife refuges to wildlife and people alike and is a great time to get outdoors and explore your local refuge. It provides an ideal opportunity to discover the precious legacy that refuges represent for generations to

come.

This year, the National Wildlife Refuge System celebrated its 114-year anniversary. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke said, “Our wildlife refuges are an incredible asset to the national economy, bringing tourism and recreation jobs as well as revenue from spending in local communities. At the same time, refuges offer a place where families can carry on cherished outdoor traditions while making the important connection between people and nature. It worries me to think about hunting and fishing becoming activities for the land-owning elite. Refuges are an important part of making sure that doesn’t happen.”

National Wildlife Refuge Week is celebrated at refuges with festivals, educational programs, guided tours and other events.

Nationwide, refuges support more than 35,000 jobs and pump

$2.4 billion into local communities, according to the Service. More than 50 million people visit refuges each year.

The National Wildlife Refuge System is the nation’s premier habitat conservation network.

According to the Department of the Interior, it spans more than 850 million acres, including seven marine national monuments, 566 refuges and 38 wetland management districts with more being added each year.

So find a refuge near you, mark your calendar and go see what all the fuss is about.

Corinth firefighters complete state academy Firefighters Christopher Shane Barnes, Travis M. Bradshaw, and Patrick Porterfield of the Corinth Fire Department graduated September 21from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1001 Firefighter I-II course held at the Mississippi State Fire Academy in Jackson.

This intense seven-week course included classroom and hands-on instruction in the areas of fire behavior, fire suppression, rescue, incident command, hazardous materials and other fire related topics.

Company pleads: ‘Don’t say Velcro’ Associated Press

CONCORD, N.H. — Lots of pop songs have hooks.

This one has loops, too.

Velcro Cos. this week released a music video with a message it hopes will stick as well as its products: “Don’t Say Velcro.”

The video features actors portraying trademark attorneys, joined by a few actual lawyers in the background, pleading with the public to respect the company’s brand and refer to similar “scratchy, hairy” products as “hook and loop” fasteners.

“We’re asking you not to say a name we took 60 plus years to build,” the group sings. “But if you keep calling these Velcro shoes, our trademark will get killed.”

Velcro CEO Fraser Cameron said the video

had been viewed more than 4 million times worldwide by Tuesday afternoon.

“We want people to know there’s a real company behind the brand folks know and love and that there’s a difference between Velcro brand products and others in the marketplace,” he said.

“There’s only one Velcro brand. Everything else is just hook and loop.”

Velcro has its roots in nature. Swiss engineer George de Mestral came up with the design in the 1940s after studying burrs that stuck to his dog’s fur and his wool pants during a walk in the woods.

He named his invention Velcro, a combination of “velour” and “crotchet,” the French words for velvet and hook.

Council candidate dressed as clown makes voters nervous Associated Press

BOSTON — A man dressed as a clown who’s running for a Boston city council seat has caused a stir on a college campus.

Police tell The Boston Herald that Pat Payaso’s presence near a polling location at Roxbury Community College made some people nervous on Tuesday and they called the authorities.

A photo Payaso posted on social media indicates he was there to vote.

Police spokesman Of-

ficer Stephen McNulty says Payaso later was stopped by an officer who realized he wasn’t a threat.

The Roxbury resident has donned a rainbow wig, a red nose and clown makeup in recent campaign photos and videos on social media. His last name means clown in Spanish.

Payaso will be on the November ballot along with seven other candidates for an at-large city council seat.

France, but by 1958 operations had moved to Manchester, New Hampshire.

Topical PBS show seeks big questions behind the news

BY DAVID BAUDER AP Television Writer

NEW YORK — In a television world larded with topical talk shows, Carlos Watson and Denise DiIanni faced the challenge of finding a new idea that could be palatable to typical PBS viewers and a younger audience that often tunes out this type of programming.

Their solution, “Third Rail with OZY,” is midway through a two-month run Friday nights on PBS. Its originators hope that lasts much longer.

Watson, editor in chief of the online news site OZY.com and Dilanni, executive in charge of the program for Boston’s WGBH, fashioned a program that brings in experts to debate big ideas beneath news stories of the day.

For instance, two of the first topics addressed were whether America was becoming more or less

racist, and whether truth was overrated and lying had become the American way. In asking whether or not America should be the world’s cop, Watson tied it to the news by discussing President Donald Trump’s speech before the United Nations.

“I grew up remembering that (Phil) Donahue and Ted Koppel could not just capture the conversation of the moment but put big, difficult things on the table,” Watson said.

Watson moderates a discussion that features two people on each side with an occasional extra to offer additional insight.

For instance, author Malcolm Gladwell deepened a truth-telling episode that occasionally sounded simplistic or became sidetracked in political squabbles.

Producers have gone beyond familiar pundits to find participants not often seen in these roles:

actor and Harvard graduate Hill Harper, basketball player Michael Williams, author Roxane Gay, CBS reporter Mo Rocca, former CIA analyst Yael Eisenstat and a campaign director for President Donald Trump from Georgia, Seth Weathers.

Gay added some wry humor to her appearance. “Do young people lie more?” she asked. “I can’t tell. I teach fiction.”

A weakness is the show’s failure to use onscreen chyrons to remind people who these experts are as the shows go on.

“It’s absolutely critical that we have a variety of voices,” Watson said, “and a variety in my mind doesn’t mean four of the same old people and one that is slightly younger.

We’ve got to take some chances and we’ve got to mix it up. I have to say to people’s credit that they want to be part of the conversation.”

Two artists find a way through the pain in Roadcase Royale

BY MARK KENNEDY AP Entertainment Writer

NEW YORK — Some bands are created by giddy accidents or random meetings. Others are created cynically for the bottom line. The new band Roadcase Royale was created to overcome loss.

Nancy Wilson, the guitarist of the legendary band Heart, was recovering from a family crisis that had estranged her from her sister, Ann. Meanwhile, singer Liv Warfield was mourning the loss of her mentor, Prince. They decided to join forces, blending Wilson’s rock with Warfield’s R&B. “It’s been this amazing kind of confluence of really good luck and bad luck where we both had losses in our lives,” said Wilson. “We’d already met.

We’d already talked about maybe doing something together. And we decided, ‘Let’s be the people that really do something when they say they’re going to do it.’”

Like musical step-parents, Wilson brought to the project three current members of Heart — keyboardist Chris Joyner, bassist Dan Rothchild and drummer Ben Smith.

Warfield recruited guitarist Ryan Waters, who she’d gotten to know while in the New Power Generation, Prince’s backing band.

They named themselves Roadcase Royale, a title inspired by the combination of the scuffed instrument containers from Heart and the aristocracy of Prince — a “cool contrast between the royalty of the Prince people joining forces with the old road dogs,” said Wilson.

The band’s debut album, “First Things First,” came out this fall and has something for everyone — rock ‘n’ roll that’s funky, lyrics that are sometimes socially conscious and

sometimes fiery, with brand new songs, a few reworked Heart songs (”Even It Up” and “These Dreams”) and a Colin Hay cover.

“It’s all coming from the soul, from experience and from life. You learn how you can break all the rules that you feel confined in.

So that’s how we write.

It’s so natural. I love it,” said Wilson.

The band’s roots stretch back to 2015, when Heart was booked for two shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. They were looking for an opening act when they were advised to check out a singer who had electrified “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.” That was Warfield, who with her band had performed “Why Do You Lie?” Wilson decided their opening act was found.

During their Hollywood Bowl shows, Wilson and Warfield bonded. Warfield confessed she felt a little stuck in the world of R&B and wanted to do more rock. Wilson responded: “That’s funny ‘cause I love the funk.”

Real life interrupted both women in 2016.

Heart, the band that gave us “Barracuda” and “Alone,” was rocked by a body blow that summer when Ann Wilson’s husband was arrested for assaulting Nancy’s 16-year-old twin sons.

And Warfield was trying to come to terms with the loss of Prince in the spring.

“That really affected me because I really didn’t know which way to go. I was just kind of lost. I was in my head a lot. I didn’t really know how to express myself,” said Warfield. “And when I met Nancy, it was like picking ourselves back up again. I was like, ‘The wheels are turning.’”

Even so, their first recording session had a nervous, tentative air. “It was

Cryptoquip

like a first dance kind of thing,” said Wilson. “Music is a very intimate thing that you share with someone and we were like, ‘OK, what if it sucks?’ What if it doesn’t work?”

The first song they tackled — Hays’ “Hold On to My Hand” — was an attempt to make their own and it ended up on the album. Everyone recognized the experiment was working. That same day they started working on new stuff.

Judging by their first single, “Get Loud,” the band can rock. The song, championing those women “unheard, unseen” is a perfect mix of cultural empowerment and anthem rock. It would fit perfectly being sung at protest marches.

Roadcase Royale isn’t scared of commenting on society — their song “Not Giving Up” pointedly references someone building a wall while “we’re waiting just to see it fall” — even if many Heart fans come from red states.

“Politics don’t necessarily mix with rock ‘n’ roll. But if you’re speaking about what life is handing us, how unfair it can seem and strange and confusing it is, then it makes you feel better to be able to talk about that,” said Wilson.

With the new band, Wilson said she’s found a new musical home. She said there are still ragged feelings between her and her sister, who is touring on her own this year.

“Being able to open up an easygoing conversation after that has been really difficult. So I think this is the healthiest place for me to be right now, as long as I can be here,” said Wilson. “The molecules of Heart may never amass once again but it remains to be seen. This is where I want to be, Roadcase Royale.”

Pearl Jam, Chicago Cubs combine in ‘Let’s Play Two’

BY MARK KENNEDY AP Entertainment Writer

NEW YORK — To many fans of Pearl Jam, the band’s two-concert stand last summer at Wrigley Field in Chicago was epic.

What happened a few months later at that hallowed venue was also pretty epic to baseball fans. Filmmaker Danny Clinch combined them.

In the new documentary “Let’s Play Two,” the concerts become the soundtrack for the Chicago Cubs ending their 108-year World Series drought, the worlds of rock and sports tied together by band frontman Eddie Vedder, a lifelong Cubs fan.

Clinch’s cameras captured a dozen live Pearl Jam songs performed Aug. 20 and Aug. 22 in 2016 (including “Last Exit,” ‘‘Jeremy” and “Inside Job”) while also charting the Cubs’ electrifying World Series run that fall while also celebrating the city of Chicago.

The Associated Press asked Clinch how the movie came about.

AP: This isn’t a straight-ahead concert film. It combines two different things, baseball and rock ‘n’ roll.

What did you start with?

Clinch: We went there to film Pearl Jam’s two shows at Wrigley, which was incredible.

The energy was great, the performances were great, and that’s what you hope for. We cap-

tured it in a way we were very happy with at the end. When that whole intense process was finished — the last note of the last show — I think we were all thinking, in the back of our minds, ‘Well, you know, we are at Wrigley Field. The Cubs are on a mad tear and Ed is a big Cubs fan. What would happen if this actually came to pass?’ I said to Eddie and Theo Epstein, the general manager of the Cubs, I said, ‘Look, if they make a run, I’m going to come back with my cameras. Do you guys mind?’ They were like, ‘No, no. Let’s see what happens.’

AP: It’s a careful balance on film, a love letter to the Cubs and Chicago with a soundtrack by Pearl Jam. Was it hard to put together?

Clinch: It was difficult.

It was interesting because we were capturing hope and devotion from both sides — from the Pearl Jam fan side, from the Cub side, from the band side as well. The idea of weaving that all together was really interesting.

AP: You have worked with the band before. Did that help you get intimate moments like a moment you captured them doing a sound check on a roof overlooking Wrigley?

Clinch: My relationship with them is long and there is a trust there.

I don’t think they would let just anybody up there to do it. They know that I respect them. They know I respect their gui-

Crossword

tar tech, their tour manager, their whole team.

We know that they’re not in our film. We’re filming their show. And I think that’s an important thing to remember. By doing that and by always showing respect, they allow me to capture that stuff.

They’re not a band that allows everybody to capture that stuff. They’re not a band that’s posting to Instagram from backstage or doing a Snapchat or something like that. They are private and they enjoy their privacy. I’m a Pearl Jam fan and I’m a music fan and what do I want to see?

AP: How did you lay out the music? You make the songs comment on the action, as when the song “Alive” plays when the Cubs forced a Game 7, staying alive in the contest.

Clinch: The set-list was a challenge. The band said, ‘It’s your film, you do the set-list.’ I was like, ‘OK.’ I was grateful to have that opportunity and I thought, ‘Well, you know what? I’m going to rough it out and then give it to them and I’m sure they’ll tell me what they want to do.’ I roughed it out and they didn’t say anything.

They were like, ‘This looks good to us.’ The way they set their set-list up, they eased into it. It kind of started on a mellow tip and there was this build, build, build, and this ebb and flow, which is actually how a film should be. In a way, it was very cinematic. We wanted to keep the spirit of that set-list.

LiteCenter: Quite the opposite is true. The benefits of weight loss for a type 2 diabetic or someone suffering from heart disease, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, joint problems and a slew of other conditions are boundless. In some cases someone who loses weight and is able to keep it under control can experience what is termed a “reversal,” which basically means that the person could come completely off medication for their condition. This would depend on more factors than just weight loss, such as how long a person has had the condition or disease.

LiteCenter:

When you consider the long term cost of health problems, medications, increase in insurance premiums, then weight loss is very cost effective by comparison. The LiteCenter program cost is based on several factors, some of which include the amount of weight to lose and individual health issues. However, no one pays more than 15.00 per week to follow our program.

The benefits are boundless to using the LiteCenter program. Our clients lose on average 3 or 3.5 lbs per week.
