Jury views store surveillance footage

Capital murder trial continues BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Jurors viewed surveillance footage showing events leading to the shooting of store clerk Kris Ledlow as prosecutors sought to tie Micah Allan Bostic to the crime on Tuesday in Alcorn County Circuit Court. Defense Attorney Greg Mey-

er, meanwhile, aims to cast doubt on the presence of Bostic on the morning of Feb. 1, 2016, when Ledlow was fatally shot at the Mapco Express gas station on Highway 72 East. He said the various expert witnesses who will testify can’t say the defendant was present. “The only person that can tell

you Micah Bostic was there is Brooklyn Traylor, and he is not credible,” said Meyer. In opening remarks, Meyer said there is “no credible evidence” proving beyond a reasonable doubt that Bostic, who is on trial for capital murder, was at the gas station. In a darkened courtroom, jurors viewed several minutes of surveillance footage and heard the dramatic bursts of gunfire

and cries from the store clerk. Later, they viewed a videotaped interview of Bostic by detectives with the Corinth Police Department. In his opening remarks, Assistant District Attorney David Daniels set the scene, describing how another customer had come and gone and no one was around when Traylor and Bostic entered the store about 5:38 a.m., with Traylor wearing

a striped, hooded sweatshirt and Bostic wearing a solid blue sweatshirt. After the two picked up a couple of items in the store, Daniels said Traylor made a mistake as he said to his accomplice, “What did you get, Drop?” Bostic is said to be known as “Drop.” With Traylor standing in front of the cashier while Bostic Please see TRIAL | 2A

The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors will deliberate on candidates for a joint appointment to the hospital board following the city’s nomination of a new trustee. The board on Monday tabled action on an appointment to the seat currently held by Myrna McNair. The Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen in its last meeting voted to appoint Tim Smith, chief executive officer of Avectus Healthcare Solutions, to the seat. The current term runs through Nov. 15. In light of the city’s action, it appears the reappointment of McNair is off the table as an option, said Board Attorney Bill Davis. “If you want to propose another candidate either now or later, you can do that,” he told the supervisors. “The ball is in your court at this point as to how to respond.” District 2 Supervisor James Voyles suggested someone such as a retired accountant might be a good candidate. The seat is the only joint appointment to the seven-member hospital board. Supervisors did make several reappointments to other boards — Robert Wolfe, Michael McCalla, Scott Lemons and Danny Turner to The Alliance Board of Directors; Brett Marlar and Sharon Franks for

Board attorney Bill Davis Crossroads Arena; and Pauline Sorrell and Billy Taylor for the Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. The two Corinth Area CVB seats are joint appointments and have also been approved by the city. In other business: • The board approved a resolution authorizing the exchange of properties set to take place between the county and the city. The city will take full ownership of the Corinth Coliseum Civic Center and the Crossroads Museum, and the county will take full ownership of Crossroads Arena and the Northeast Mississippi Business Incubator. • The board approved a public records request policy giving the county seven days to respond to requests. • Supervisors accepted Trustmark Bank’s financing bid of 2.05 percent for six months for a $600,000 negoPlease see SEAT | 2A

Local rock painting group chooses awareness theme for drop BY L.A. STORY lastory@dailycorinthian.com

They are hidden in the shadows beneath trees, flowering plants and bushes. They are hidden in windowsills, beside doorsteps and at the base of signs. They are hidden everywhere in the spaces where most fail to look, but it’s time to bring them out into the light of awareness. #662 Rocks Corinth — a local rock painting group — chose last Saturday, Sept. 30, as their “Drop a Rock Day” and the theme was “awareness.” “We decided to create a ‘drop a rock day’ as something for all

to drop a like-minded theme on the same day. We allowed members to vote for what they wanted to paint and the awareness theme won by a landslide,” said Whitney Langston, one of the administrators for the rock painting group. The admin went on to add that she, and the other administrators, did not want the awareness theme to be based only on cancer. “There are so many personal stories in our small town that we wanted all their voices to be heard. We explained to them that they were allowed to paint any awareness that was near

The group members responded with awareness brought to a variety of things such as autism, cerebral palsy, diabetes and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

grandbaby. The masses in his lungs had shown a decrease in size of 30 to 40 percent,” said Morphis. Dana Smith, of Corinth, chose to paint his rock for autism awareness in honor of his grandson, Haydeen. He said his grandson has severe autism. When Haydeen was born, he had to have a feeding tube until he was nearly two years old. Now, at the age of six, he still has to eat pureed food. He cannot hear or speak any words. “He’s now six and is still as hyper and wideopen as in the beginning. He doesn’t sleep at night like most kids do, so that makes it extremely challenging for his parents. (God bless them.) It takes a special kind of parent to deal with this dysfunction and chaos. He has the most beautiful heart and kindness about him with hugs and kisses that melt your heart. I’m one proud papaw and honestly don’t know if I’d wanna change him with the exception of that wondering ‘what if,’” said Smith. Iris Bain, of Blue Mountain, painted rocks to bring awareness to Type 1 diabetes, in honor of her daughter, Emily, and Pregnancy and Infant Loss in honor of her infant son, who died unexpectedly at the age of one month and three days. “I thank God for my baby bear every day. She is my heart. Life with dia-

betes is far from easy but I am thankful for having her and being chosen to be her mama, said Bain, regarding her daughter Emily. Regarding her heartbreaking story dealing with loss of her son, Bain said, “My baby boy was one month and three days old. I will never understand, nor do I want to. I miss him every day and I will never stop loving him. A piece of our hearts will always live outside our bodies. Our sweet baby lives with Jesus now and it’s hard every day. Anything is a trigger and there are days I can’t function. It caused me horrible PTSD. By the grace of God, we have made it every day to this point and by His grace we will keep trying,” said Bain. Jeri Vanderford, of Corinth, painted five rocks to bring awareness to important issues that touched her life. She painted a rock for Parkinson’s Awareness in honor of her father and created a Domestic Violence Awareness rock in honor of her friend Amanda who was murdered at the age of 29 by her estranged husband. Vanderford rendered a Breast Cancer Awareness rock in honor of her cousin, Michelle Smith Mitchell, and Cancer Awareness for her cousin, Jorja. She painted an Anorexia Awareness rock in honor

Daniels said Bostic tossed his hooded shirt into a dumpster near the gas station, while Traylor’s shirt was discovered in the back yard of a nearby residence on Sara Lane, apparently left there as Traylor headed toward Walmart. Joshua Ballard testified that Traylor approached him at the Wash Town car wash on Highway 72 and asked for a ride. He

also offered to sell Ballard a pink 9 mm Ruger pistol before Ballard dropped him off at the J.B. Combs Apartments on Cass Street. Ballard purchased the firearm and, some time later, heard about what happened at the Mapco. He contacted Police Chief Ralph Dance to ask about what kind of weapon had been used.

A week later he had his right kidney removed. The following February, we discovered the cancer had spread to his lungs and had part of his right lung removed. Last September, he was sitting in his recliner and raised his right arm to stretch and broke the bone! “We found out then that the cancer had also spread to the bones in his right arm and leg. That same week he had four surgeries in three days to implant rods into his leg, his arm and have a port put in to do treatments. In October, he had to have a rod implanted into his left arm.

pect, and he arranged to meet with Ballard to collect the weapon. Daniels said two bullets sent to the crime lab from the shooting were determined to have been fired from the pink Ruger. Judge Paul Funderburk denied a motion by Meyer to suppress a portion of the taped interview with Bostic in which he refers to a prior armed robbery conviction. In the video of Bostic

speaking with detectives Jerry Rogers and Dell Green, Bostic requests an attorney but then talks at length, denying any involvement in the crime. He suggests that he is being accused because he is the “best possible match,” noting his tattoos and a prior conviction. In the interview, he said he wouldn’t kill anyone. “It don’t even sit right with me when I have an

argument with my sister,” he said. Bostic also makes some reflective statements about himself and the people with whom he associated. “I’m often misunderstood by everybody,” he said.

Thiry-seven-year-old Jerica Davis Grimes of Corinth was arrested by deputies during a traffic stop on Front Street in Burnsville on Sept. 29. During the course of the traffic stop, deputies learned that the driver had a suspended driver’s license.

the vehicle claimed possession of the alleged narcotic and was subsequently arrested. Both the driver and passenger were transported to the Tishomingo County Jail.

Booneville School year off to great start BOONEVILLE — The year is getting off to a good start in the Booneville School District with high performances on readiness tests for kindergarteners. Superintendent Dr. Todd English told the district’s board students scored extremely well on kindergarten readiness tests administered at the start of the school year. He explained the tests give teachers an early look at where students stand as they start the year and help them know of areas where each student may need additional help.

English also informed the board of bonuses to be paid to certified teachers at Anderson Elementary School, Booneville Middle School and Booneville High School through a statefunded program recognized certified teachers for schools’ performance in last year’s state accountability results. Each certified teacher at AES will receive approximately $1,400 for the school’s A rating. Each certified teacher at the middle school and high school will receive approximately $800 for the schools’ B ratings. He said the legislation creating the program limited it to only certified instructors. The superintendent said they are taking steps to address noise and loitering complaints regarding the north parking lot of the high school gym. He told the board they have asked the police department to increase patrols in the area and keep it clear of those who don’t have a reason to be there.

Senators: Mississippi jurist should fill appellate seat Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s two Republican U.S. senators say they are working with President Donald Trump’s administration to fill a seat on a federal appeals court with someone from the state. Sens. Thad Cochran and Roger Wicker said in a joint statement Monday it’s their priority to have “a well-qualified, constitutional conservative jurist” from Mississippi to succeed Judge Grady Jolly on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Jaye Smith, RMT #67 Krisy Evans, RMT #136

Three seats already were vacant. A federal court website shows that Judge Edith Brown Clement, of Louisiana, plans to retire from active court service, though no date has been set. The New Orleans-based court handles cases from Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Jolly, from Mississippi, has been on the appeals court since 1982. He is retiring Tuesday.

“The administration understands that it is a priority to us that a Mississippian be nominated to fill this seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit,” the joint statement from Cochran and Wicker said.

Opinion

Reece Terry, publisher

Math, history and tax reform In school, I liked math the least and history the most. Both can be useful in the coming debate over President Trump’s proposed tax reforms. The one thing I learned in Cal math class is that if the forThomas mula is wrong, the answer will be wrong. In history class Columnist I learned we are not the first people to occupy the planet and that the experiences of those who came before us can be helpful when considering contemporary issues. Since the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the left has presented government as the answer to every problem. The increasing taxes needed to finance that whimsy saddles hardworking taxpayers with the burden of paying a modern-day version of Roman tribute to inept rulers never satisfied with the amount. Failure, of course, never seems to be a reason to slow government growth, much less reduce its size and reach. For the left, any failure is attributed to the evil rich who don’t pay enough. There is another formula which, when tried, has succeeded. It worked for John F. Kennedy, who cut taxes; ditto for Ronald Reagan (yes, he also raised taxes but by then economic growth was such that they did not have a negative effect). And it worked for Calvin Coolidge whose philosophy, life and presidency has much to teach us today, but those addicted to government need to go to rehab to break their reliance on Washington and improve their lives. In Robert Sobel’s biography, “Coolidge: An American Enigma,” these quotes from the 30th president are highlighted: “I am convinced that the larger incomes of the country would actually yield more revenue to the government if the basis of taxation were scientifically revised downward.” That was Reagan’s belief long before “supply-side economics” acquired its name. Then there is this Coolidgeism: “I want the people of America to be able to work less for the government and more for themselves. I want them to have the rewards of their own industry. That is the chief meaning of freedom. Until we can re-establish a condition under which the earnings of the people can be kept by the people, we are bound to suffer a very distinct curtailment of our liberty.” About public debt, which has just passed $20 trillion and would have appalled him, Coolidge said: “Public debt (is) a burden on all the people.” Coolidge left office with a surplus. Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) has brought out the familiar liberal playbook, demonizing the “rich” and claiming they will benefit most from any tax cut. People who have acquired their wealth honestly through hard work and wise decisions should be role models, not demonized as if they have stolen from others. President Trump should start reading the indecipherable tax code aloud at public events and say, “This is what your Congress has done to you.” He should bring people on stage to tell their stories of how high taxes have harmed, even ruined, their businesses. These should include people who have lost family farms handed down through generations because of the estate, or “death tax,” which forced them to sell the land in order to pay the government. Public testimonies can be more effective than debating economic philosophy. Washington always assumes we aren’t sending it enough of the money we earn. President Trump should say we are going to start telling Washington how much of our money we intend to let them spend. The left hasn’t had a new economic idea in 70 years. Its old idea of more taxation and spending is the wrong formula, and it’s producing harmful results. History can show us a better way. We can start with Coolidge.

Prayer for today Lord and Master of all, I pray that thou wilt make me see through my prejudices and beyond my desires to the very “top of my condition.” May I not wait for places or circumstances that are dimly in the distance or that are near at hand, but accomplish the work I should do to-day. Amen.

A verse to share “So may all your enemies perish, LORD! But may all who love you be like the sun when it rises in its strength.” Then the land had peace forty years. —Judges 5:31

Corinth, Miss.

Farewell to one of the few who put others first OXFORD — The time has come to say farewell to Curlie L. Whiten Sr., who died last week at 94. Whiten embodied the perfect recipe for making the world a better place: He knew who he was, and he did what he could where he could. No hesitation. No expectation of return. Whiten would have been born about 1923, so he was a small child when the 1927 Flood devastated the Delta and most of the western half of Mississippi. He would have been in grade school during the Great Depression when few families in the nation had much and families in this state, especially black families like his, had less. He would have been a young man during World War II, but never mentioned his role in the Army with the 327th Quartermaster Service Regiment. For the ensuing three decades he continued in federal service, working for the Corps of Engineers up and down the Mississippi. Teams dredged to keep the river navigable, and placed concrete revetments to fight relentless sloughing of the banks. Hard work. Dangerous work. Around the clock. But you’d never know anything about that simply by meeting Whiten. He didn’t talk much at all, and when

he did it was never about himself, never about the past, never about the future. Charlie He lived in Mitchell the moment, and valued Columnist every moment. Whiten walked everywhere. There were a couple of stories about why, but none were ever verified. He wasn’t a luddite, fearful of vehicles or anything. He seemed to like walking, even prefer it. One day he visited Daniel Wilson, a fellow veteran of the corps, who had obtained post-retirement custodial work at the newspaper office in Vicksburg. It was just to help Wilson that day. As it turned out, Wilson worked until he died and Whiten was there for 34 years, retiring for a second time in 2015 at a spritely 92. Whiten and his family owned a home at the foot of Fort Hill Drive, two miles or so from the newspaper office. It wasn’t a bad walk. Hilly, but not bad. In 1996, when Whiten was 73, The Vicksburg Post moved another four or five miles from his home. The assumption was he would finally retire and go fishing

more often with his wife. Fishing was her passion. But the first person to drive up for the first day of work in the new building spotted Whiten on the steps. He didn’t have a key yet, but did by the end of the day. Whiten was a person not easily fooled. Smart but not overbearing. Wise but not officious. Met every person as an equal. He walked smoothly, but with purpose. Posture impeccable. Didn’t miss a detail. “Those 34s?” he said to me one morning, guessing the waist of what he immediately spotted as a new pair of khakis. “Yes,” I said. “What are you going to do with all those 32s?” he asked. I said I was holding onto them for when I lost the extra inches. “You’ll never go back,” he said and laughed. And he was right (so far). Whiten gathered scraps to feed feral cats that lived in the woods behind the building. He was an example to young employees in all departments, but he never told anyone what to do. He didn’t fuss at those who complained about their work or were habitually late. He simply showed a better path. His good deeds were uncounted. Staff at nursing homes told me he’d show

up in a cab with a couple of milkshakes. He knew some of the residents. He didn’t know many others. If any appeared lonely, he’d sit with them, spoon-feeding those unable to feed themselves. Nobody asked him to do it. Nobody rewarded him for doing it. No conversation with Whiten was very long or, for that matter, very deep (perhaps deeper than we realized at the time). He read the newspaper, and had political views that he would share — usually in three or four words — if asked. Here’s what’s key: No exchange with him ever ended without both you smiling and him smiling. His life was as hard and perhaps harder than others. But if he could focus instead on helping others, then perhaps we could, too. The world is full of great people orchestrating great ideas for the betterment of humanity. They make headlines for their deeds and dedication. Today, though, pause to remember one who chose a modest path, and was a blessing in the lives of so many.

The passionate non sequiturs of the gun debate The mind boggles at the horror of Las Vegas, where Stephen Paddock perched himself in the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay and sprayed bullets into a crowd of outdoor concertgoers in the worst mass shooting in American history. If this slaughter of innocents were an act perpetrated by a foreign power, the U.S. military retaliation would begin immediately, and rightly so. The impulse to act to stop the domestic massacres that have become a heartbreakingly metronomic feature of American life is laudable and understandable. “It’s time,” as Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy said, giving voice to the sentiment, “for Congress to get off its a-and do something.” The problem is that the “something,” namely all the usual gun-control proposals, isn’t well-suited to stopping mass shootings. But liberal politicians never let the inapplicability of their proposals stop them. The passion with which they advocate for new gun-control measures is inversely related to their prospective efficacy. The go-to proposal is

universal back-ground checks, although the perpetrators of mass shootings Rich u s u a l l y Lowry haven’t been adjudicated National and thereReview fore have passed background checks, as Paddock did in purchasing at least some of his guns. He had no history of mental illness, and people who knew him didn’t report any bizarre behavior. He had no criminal record, beyond a minor violation years ago. He didn’t even have politics that anyone was aware of. ISIS is claiming responsibility, but the FBI says it hasn’t found any evidence of a connection. His brother seemed sincerely dumbfounded and called Paddock “just a guy.” No enhanced background-check regime, no matter how vigorous, would have stopped him from purchasing guns. Hillary Clinton immediately singled out so-called silencers, or suppressors. “The crowd fled at the sound of gunshots,” Clinton tweet-

ed. “Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make it easier to get.” This conjures an image of the killer shooting down people with a gun impossible to hear, a conception straight out of a James Bond movie. In a piece on Republicansupported legislation to make suppressors easier to acquire (it currently requires a long approval process and purchase of a $200 tax stamp), The Washington Post notes that one of the devices would lessen the sound of an AR-15 to 132 decibels, or comparable to “a gunshot or a jackhammer.” In other words, a rifle still sounds like a gun even with a suppressor. If Hillary cares so much about the issue, she might take 10 minutes to learn something about it, but gun-controllers tend to be low-information advocates. Confusion between semi-automatic weapons, which are common and fire once each time the trigger is pulled, and automatic weapons, which are rare and fire multiple times each time the trigger is pulled, is a persistent feature of the gun debate.

controllers don’t know the difference and erroneously refer to, say, AR-15 rifles as machine guns or automatic weapons. This is an area where Congress has already legislated, though. It is illegal to own an automatic weapon made after May 1, 1986. While it’s possible to own a machine gun manufactured before that, it requires jumping through extensive hoops and becoming part of a federal registry. The guns are highly expensive. Finally, there are always calls to limit magazine sizes, although this wouldn’t have stopped Paddock, either. From his outpost on the 32nd floor, he tragically had all the time he needed to load and reload. It took the SWAT team more than an hour to breach his room. The images from Las Vegas are sickening. There’s the sound of gunfire truly worthy of a war zone as people scream and run and cower, with nowhere to go. This shouldn’t happen in America; it shouldn’t happen anywhere. But that doesn’t mean that the offthe-shelf obsessions of guncontrol advocates would do the slightest thing to stop it.

Novel mixes crime story, 1950s South BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

“Lightning Men” by Thomas Mullen c.2017, 37Ink / Atria $26.00 / $32.00 Canada 375 pages It struck in a second. If you’d have blinked, you would have missed the flash but you’d’ve known it was there by the rumble that followed. There’s nothing like the power and beauty of a summer thunderstorm to put respect into you – except, as in the new novel “Lightning Men” by Thomas Mullen, maybe the crack of a gun. Even from the front of the truck, Officers Lucian Boggs and Tommy Smith could see that this was trouble. They’d known for a time that if anyone was going to stop illegal substances from flowing into the part of Atlanta known

as “Darktown,” it would have to be them. White police officers wouldn’t bother arresting “Lightning Men” who brought drugs and moonshine in; they didn’t care, but Boggs and Smith knew what those things were doing to the people of their community. And so, there they were, approaching a delivery truck in a narrow alley one night, guns in hand. The subsequent lack of support from fellow officers came as no surprise, nor did the release of the men Boggs and Smith had arrested. That was the latest in a long line of slights from White Atlanta, which was busy being outraged that Black families were moving into formerly-white neighborhoods. One of those neighborhoods was where Officer Dennis Rakestraw lived. Rake really had no issue

with “Negroes” moving into his neighborhood, but he knew his brother-in-law, Dale, did. Dale was an idiot, that was sure, and Rake was dismayed to know that he was also Klan. It was that part that got Dale into trouble before – but never as much trouble as Dale was in now, and he’d pulled Rake straight in the middle of the storm. As tension heated up over neighborhood segregation, a similar tension simmered within the APD over “the colored experiment” within the department, a white banker assaulted by Klansmen, shoot-outs, beatings, and the return of someone who should’ve stayed away. Trust in Atlanta that summer was a rare commodity – between man and woman, between relatives-bymarriage, and even between two APD partners. There’s a lot going on inside

“Lightning Men” – which is good, and it’s not. Rich in detail and flavored by the presence of real-life people, this novel, set in 1950, also contains snippets of authentic racism, Jim Crow laws, and social mores of the post-War American South. This offers readers a fine tale with an atmosphere of confusion, beauty, and horror, in which author Thomas Mullen inserts two officers, both of whom are likeable characters and fit perfectly into this story. But oh, it’s a long story. Too long, in fact: plot lines stretch forever before tying up; dead characters strut on the sidelines; and a rotating cast numbers in the dozens, which can make a reader disoriented. A too-convenient ending is no fun, either. And yet, readers of noir crime dramas might relish tackling

this book and its meticulouslywritten lushness; if that’s you, this is your kind o’book. For lighter readers or cozy-mystery fans, though, “Lightning Men” probably won’t strike you.

Donation supports Northeast’s Field of Dreams effort During a recent meeting of the Northeast Development Foundation Board of Directors, board member Chris Cornelison of Iuka and owner of Solutions Rxpresented the Northeast Mississippi Community College Development Foundation with a $10,000 donation to its “Field of Dreams” capital campaign, the goal of which is to raise funds to construct a $5.7 million state-of-the-art baseball/ softball complex on the Northeast campus. This complex will give Northeast players and fans a true collegiate athletic experience. The baseball stadium has a 266-seating capacity and will provide 65 chair back seats directly behind home plate. The field will have artificial turf which

will decrease the amount of maintenance needed. Also, by using artificial turf, it will provide additional areas for student activi­ties on campus. The new complex will provide easy access to the state of the art softball stadium. The softball field has a seating capacity of 200 and will provide 35 chair back seats directly behind home plate. Both the infield and outfield of will feature artificial turf. This complex will help Northeast’s baseball and softball programs compete on a state and national level for decades to come.

Trump marvels at ‘miracle’ Puerto Rico survival BY JILL COLVIN AND CALVIN WOODWARD Associated Press

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Touring a small slice of Hurricane Maria’s devastation, President Donald Trump congratulated Puerto Rico on Tuesday for escaping the higher death toll of “a real catastrophe like Katrina� and heaped praise on the relief efforts of his administration without mentioning the sharp criticism the federal response has drawn. “Really nothing short of a miracle,� he said of the recovery, an assessment at odds with the despair of many still struggling to find water and food outside the capital city in wide swaths of an island where only 5 percent of electricity customers have power back. The governor of Puerto Rico said late Tuesday that the official death toll has been in-

creased to 34 from 16. In the heart of San Juan, in fact, a few miles from the air base where Trump gave his thumbs-up report on progress, people stacked sewage-fouled clothes and mattresses outside houses and businesses lacking electricity nearly two weeks after the storm. “Nobody’s come,� said Ray Negron, 38, collecting debris in the Playita neighborhood. Trump pledged an all-out effort to help the island while adding, somewhat lightly: “Now I hate to tell you, Puerto Rico, but you’ve thrown our budget a little out of whack because we’ve spent a lot of money on Puerto Rico. And that’s fine. We’ve saved a lot of lives.� Known deaths from Maria in the U.S. territory stand at 34. But local officials caution that any accounting of death

and destruction is far from complete as people suffer secondary effects from thirst, hunger and extreme heat without air conditioning. As for Katrina, as many as 1,800 people died in 2005 when levees protecting New Orleans broke, a toll in lives and property that took years to understand. The visit offered fresh evidence of the unconventional path Trump has taken in responding to the one-two-three punch from hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria. His effusive praise for federal relief efforts has overshadowed his displays of empathy for those who are suffering. And in Puerto Rico, in particular, his criticism of local people for not doing more to help themselves has struck an off note during a time of crisis. Trump said his visit was “not about me� but then

praised local officials for offering kind words about his administration’s recovery effort and invited one to repeat the “nice things� she’d said earlier. Trump also singled out Gov. Ricardo Rossello for “giving us the highest praise.� “Every death is a horror,� he said, “but if you look at a real catastrophe like Katrina and you look at the tremendous, hundreds of and hundreds and hundreds of people that died, and you look at what happened here with, really, a storm that was just totally overpowering, nobody has ever seen anything like this.� He told local officials “you can be very proud of all your people, all of our people working together.� Trump’s most prominent critic in Puerto Rico, San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz, joined other

officials at the air base for a briefing with him, shook the president’s hand and said afterward she hoped he now understood the gravity of the situation. But his comment implying Maria was not a Katrina-level event left her unsure. “Sometimes his style of communication gets in the way,� she told CNN. “I would hope that the president of the United States stops spouting out comments that really hurt the people of Puerto Rico.� On a more positive note, Cruz said: “I saw a real connection between the reality and the White House staff. I think they finally understood.� Air Force One brought the president, first lady Melania Trump and aides to Puerto Rico for a tour stretching through the afternoon. At least parts of the itinerary seemed drawn to ensure a friend-

ly reception: Trump visited with selected families waiting on their laws on a street lined with debris, including tree limbs and corrugated metal siding. Trump posed for photos, asked the residents what it was like during the storm and pledged his assistance. “Thank you for being here, it’s so good to see you,� one man said in Spanish. Up the road in the upscale Guaynabo neighborhood, one of the fastest to recover, around 200 people cheered Trump’s visit to a local church being used to distribute supplies. Many crowded around him for cellphone photos as he handed out flashlights and tossed rolls of paper towels into the friendly crowd. “There’s a lot of love in this room, a lot of love,� Trump said. “Great people.�

Ties threatened: U.S. orders 15 Pentagon: Trump’s Afghan Cuban diplomats to leave troop boost to cost $1 billion BY JOSH LEDERMAN AND MATTHEW LEE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The United States expelled 15 of Cuba’s diplomats Tuesday to protest its failure to protect Americans from unexplained attacks in Havana, plunging diplomatic ties between the countries to levels unseen in years. Only days ago, the U.S. and Cuba maintained dozens of diplomats in newly re-opened embassies in Havana and Washington, powerful symbols of a warming relationship between longtime foes. Now both countries are poised to cut their embassies by more than half, as invisible, unexplained attacks threaten delicate re-

lations between the Cold War rivals. The State Department gave Cuba’s ambassador a list Tuesday of 15 names and ordered them out within one week, officials said, in a move that aims to “ensure equity� between each nation’s embassy staffing. Last week, the U.S. announced it was withdrawing 60 percent of its own diplomats from Havana because they might be attacked and harmed if they stay. The dual moves marked a sharp escalation in the U.S. response to attacks that began nearly a year ago and yet remain unexplained despite harming at least 22 Americans — including a new victim

identified this week. Still, U.S. officials emphasized they were not accusing Cuba of either culpability or complicity, merely a failure to stop whatever is happening to Americans working out of the U.S. Embassy in Havana. Investigators have explored the possibility of a “sonic attack� harming diplomats through sound waves, but have discovered no device and identified no culprit. “We continue to maintain diplomatic relations with Cuba, and will continue to cooperate with Cuba as we pursue the investigation into these attacks,� said Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. Havana blasted the U.S. order, calling it “reckless� and “hasty.� Days earlier, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez had pleaded with Tillerson not to take such a step. His appeals unsuccessful, Rodriguez called a news conference in the Cuban capital to again deny involvement and defend his country’s efforts to assist in the U.S. investigation. “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly protests and condemns this unfounded and unacceptable decision as well as the pretext used to justify it,� Rodriguez said. He did not announce any retaliatory measures.

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The U.S. military’s top leaders told lawmakers Tuesday that the thousands of additional U.S. troops President Donald Trump has ordered to Afghanistan will cost just over $1 billion a year, bringing the total bill for fighting America’s longest war to $12.5 billion annually. During wide-ranging hearings on Capitol Hill, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis also said that the United States should remain in the nuclear deal negotiated during the Obama administration that constrains Iran’s ability to build a nuclear arsenal. Trump has trashed the international accord, a cornerstone of Barack Obama’s presidency, as the worst agreement ever negotiated by the United States and signaled he may abandon the agreement. The release of the Afghan war cost information came as Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., assailed Mattis and Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, for withholding from Congress key details about Trump’s new strategy for winning in Afghanistan that was announced six weeks ago.

Committee, declared that it was “bizarre� that Mattis and Dunford did not submit written testimony before the hearing started. That’s customary practice for administration witnesses testifying before congressional committees. “We want to be your partners,� McCain said. “But this committee will not be a rubber stamp for any policy or president. We must be well-informed. We must be convinced of the merits of the administration’s actions. And unfortunately, we still have far more questions than answers about this new strategy.� Mattis and Dunford, who appeared first before the Senate panel and later before the House Armed Services Committee, sought to assure skeptical lawmakers that Trump’s plan for expanding the U.S. presence in Afghanistan would pay off. Several members expressed concern the U.S. was wading more deeply into a conflict at great expense without prospects for long-term success. Mattis said that the Afghanistan military and police forces are fully engaged in combat operations for the first time during the 16-yearold war and are suffering fewer casualties as they continue to improve

their competence on the battlefield. He added that the Afghan forces are becoming bolder in combat because they know U.S. and NATO forces are using airpower to strike the Taliban and other militants on “the high ground.� That frees up the Afghans to “take the fight to the enemy,� Mattis said. Dunford acknowledged, however, that the war in Afghanistan is currently a stalemate. “We’re not at a point where we can bring a successful political solution to the war,� Dunford said. Trump unveiled his new strategy for Afghanistan in August and said American troops would “fight to win� by attacking enemies, “crushing� al-Qaida, and preventing terrorist attacks against Americans. But Trump’s description of a win in Afghanistan notably did not include defeating the Taliban. He indicated that after an effective military effort it eventually may be possible to reach a political settlement in Afghanistan that includes elements of the Taliban. As part of the plan, the Pentagon is boosting troop numbers by about 3,500, augmenting the roughly 11,000 Americans currently stationed there.

Investigators looking into what set off Vegas gunman BY KEN RITTER AND MIKE BALSAMO Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Investigators trying to figure out why Stephen Paddock gunned down 59 people from his high-rise hotel suite are analyzing his computer and cellphone, looking at casino surveillance footage and seeking to interview his longtime girlfriend. Nearly two days after the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, what set off the 64-year-old high-rolling gambler and retired accountant remained a big question mark Tuesday. While the probe into his background included

searches of two houses he owned in Nevada, some investigators turned their focus from the shooter’s perch to the killing grounds outside the Mandalay Bay hotel casino where his victims fell. A dozen investigators, most in FBI jackets and all wearing blue booties to avoid contaminating evidence, entered the festival site where gunfire erupted Sunday night and country music gave way to screams of pain and terror. “Shoes, baby strollers, chairs, sunglasses, purses. The whole field was just littered with things,” said Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt,

who told The Associated Press it was like a “war zone.” ‘‘There were bloodstains everywhere.” Paddock killed himself before a SWAT team blew off the door of his room on the 32nd floor. He had 23 guns with him at the hotel — along with devices that can enable a rifle to fire continuously, like an automatic — and 19 more guns at one of his homes, authorities said. More than 500 people were injured in the rampage, some by gunfire, some during the chaotic escape. At least 45 patients at two hospitals remained in critical condition.

Retired FBI profiler Jim Clemente speculated that there was “some sort of major trigger in his life — a great loss, a breakup, or maybe he just found out he has a terminal disease.” Clemente said a “psychological autopsy” may be necessary to try to establish the motive for the attack. If the suicide didn’t destroy Paddock’s brain, experts may even find a neurological disorder or malformation, he said. He said there could even be a genetic component to the slaughter: Paddock’s father was a bank robber who was on the FBI’s most-wanted

list in the 1960s and was diagnosed a psychopath. “The genetics load the gun, personality and psychology aim it, and experiences pull the trigger, typically,” Clemente said. Paddock had a business degree from Cal State Northridge. In the 190s and ‘80s, he worked as a mail carrier and an IRS agent and held down an auditing job in the Defense Department, according to the government. He later worked for a defense contractor. He had no known criminal record, and public records showed no signs of financial troubles, though he was said to be a big gambler.

“No affiliation, no religion, no politics. He never cared about any of that stuff,” his brother, Eric Paddock, said outside his Florida home. He said he was at a loss to explain the massacre. Nevada’s Gaming Control Board said it pass along records compiled on Paddock and girlfriend Marilou Danley to investigators. Danley is expected to speak with detectives when she returns to the U.S. from out of the country. The FBI discounted the possibility of international terrorism early on, even after the Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack.

Vegas gunman had device that Acts of heroism emerge in chaotic lets guns fire like an automatic aftermath of Las Vegas shooting Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — The man who unleashed hundreds of rounds of gunfire on a crowd of concertgoers in Las Vegas had two accessories that could have allowed his semi-automatic rifles to fire rapidly and continuously, as if they were fully automatic weapons, officials said. Though legally and widely available, the socalled “bump stocks” have attracted scrutiny from authorities and lawmakers in recent years. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who has long expressed concern over the availability of such accessories, said Tuesday that Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock modified at least one of his weapons with a bump stock device, but she did not elaborate. “Individuals are able to purchase bump fire

stocks for less than $200 and easily convert a semi-automatic weapon into a firearm that can shoot between 400 and 800 rounds per minute and inflict absolute carnage,” she said, calling for a ban on their sale. A semi-automatic weapon requires one trigger pull for each round fired. With a fully automatic firearm, one trigger pull can unleash continuous rounds until the magazine is empty. The bump-stock devices work by manipulating the trigger mechanism extremely rapidly, far faster than a person could do so without them. Authorities found two bump stocks in Paddock’s hotel room, two officials familiar with the investigation told The Associated Press. They are investigating whether those items were used to modify weapons used in the massacre, accord-

ing to the officials, who were briefed by law enforcement and spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is still unfolding. Sheriff Joseph Lombardo hasn’t said whether they played a role in the rampage. Authorities say Paddock opened fire from the windows of his 32nd floor hotel room late Sunday, killing 59 people and wounding hundreds more at a country music festival. Police stormed his room and found he had killed himself after committing the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Witnesses and law enforcement official said the quick, 50-round bursts of gunfire raised the possibility that Paddock had used a fully automatic weapon or modified his semi-automatic rifles to function like one. Paddock had 23 guns in his hotel room.

Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Rob Ledbetter’s battlefield instincts kicked in quickly as bullets rained overhead. The 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran who served as a sniper in Iraq immediately began tending to the wounded, one of several heroes to emerge from the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Amid the massacre in Las Vegas, which left 59 people dead and more than 500 injured, there were acts of compassion and countless heroics that officials say saved many lives. There was a man one survivor knows only as Zach who herded people to a safe place. There was a registered nurse from Tennessee who died shielding his wife. Like many people in the crowd of some 22,000 country music fans Sunday night, Ledbetter heard the pop-pop-popping noise and figured it was fireworks. Then he saw people

dropping to the ground. When more booms echoed in the night air, he recognized the sound of automatic weapons fire. The gunman, identified as Stephen Craig Paddock, a 64-year-old retired accountant from Mesquite, Nevada, created his own sniper’s perch inside the 32nd floor room at the Mandalay Bay casino hotel, across from the concert grounds. He appeared to fire unhindered for more than 10 minutes, according to radio traffic, and then killed himself before officers stormed in and found 23 firearms. “The echo, it sounded like it was coming from everywhere and you didn’t know which way to run,” said Ledbetter, who was at the concert with seven people including his brother, who was shot and injured, and his wife. They found cover in a VIP area of the concert. Once out of harm’s way, he turned to injured strangers.

Thanks to a man who took the flannel shirt off his back, Ledbetter says he put a makeshift tourniquet on a wounded teenage girl, whose face was covered with blood. “Some random guy, I said, ‘I need your shirt,’ “said Ledbetter, who is now a mortgage broker and a resident of Las Vegas. “He just gave me the flannel off his back.” Ledbetter said he compressed someone else’s shoulder wound, and he fashioned a bandage for a man whose leg was shot through by a bullet. “There was a guy that looked like he had a through and through on his leg, that we just put a T-shirt around and just did a bandanna tie,” said Ledbetter, who was outside University Medical Center on Monday, where his brother was being treated for a gunshot that went through his arm and into his chest. He is expected to survive.

Young cyberbullying victim admits to cutting herself

D E A R ABBY: My granddaughter “Ruby” has been cyberbullied. I suspect a friend of hers Abigail who is her offVan Buren on-again, again friend. When the Dear Abby girl is “off,” she is cruel, but Ruby is very attached to her. Ruby has told her dad and me she’s so depressed and has such low self-esteem from it and that she has started cutting herself. (I think she has just started because she has no marks I could find). Her father is not very concerned, but I am. What’s the next step for me in doing something about this before it has escalated to a level beyond my help? — CONCERNED GRANDMA IN ALASKA DEAR GRANDMA: Continue to affirm your granddaughter, but for now her online presence and social media should be eliminated. Consider putting Ruby into activities that will expose her to different people. A self-defense course might build her confidence and self-esteem, as well as give her the opportunity to make new friends.

However, if she remains depressed to the point of selfinjury, your granddaughter may need professional counseling to help her overcome it.

DEAR ABBY: I am 32, married, with two young sons. Since starting my own family, I have grown closer with my mom as a source of support and guidance. The problem is, my dad seems to be jealous of the relationship I have with her — probably because I was a daddy’s girl growing up. Mom and I were planning a girls’ trip together, just the two of us, and Dad said my mom couldn’t go because he was feeling left out. T his was after he invited himself along on another attempt at a girls’ trip. How can I have a close relationship with my mom without hurting my dad? Should I confront him? — FORMER DADDY’S GIRL IN GEORGIA DEAR FORMER DADDY’S GIRL: No, your mother should confront him. That you need bonding time with your mother is not a rejection of your father. That you were “Daddy’s girl” implies that he was the favored parent for decades. He doesn’t own you — or her. Women need each other, and

what your mother has to offer you at this stage of your life is important. I hope the two of you won’t allow your father’s insecurity and apparently controlling nature to interfere. DEAR READERS: Medical eye exams can catch early signs of disease before vision is lost. In addition, many diseases — from high blood pressure and diabetes to some cancers — can be diagnosed early through a medical eye exam. For seniors who haven’t had an exam in three or more years, the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s EyeCare America program may be able to help. Since 1985, EyeCare America has helped almost 2 million people. More than 90 percent of the eye care provided by nearly 6,000 volunteer ophthalmologists is at no out-of-pocket cost to the patient. This service is offered yearround. To find out if you or your loved ones qualify for this program, visit eyecareamerica.org. 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). A completely peaceful and quietly powerful frame of mind will allow you to control what you can and ignore the rest. It’s a brief and fleeting state for sure, but take these kinds of lucky breaks as they come. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You envy people who have the luxury of being able to follow their whims. It takes free time, after all, and disposable income. You could make more of both of those things if only you had, well, the luxury to follow your whims. Today brings a lucky break. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be proactive as you look ahead to the weeks to come. Block out large chunks of time that you can dedicate to what you want to do. If you don’t do this now, your time will be quickly booked up with what you’re only mildly into. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The scientists suggest that the secret to science is asking the right question. Of course, this is the secret to everything else as well. Start with what’s relevant,

and expand to the question that covers more than that. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The situation seems a little boring, but there’s something very important happening here, and if you don’t tune in you’ll miss it and waste time going back to pick up what you missed. So tune in. Awareness now will prevent problems later. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Fear, when channeled well, is better than coffee at keeping you alert and focused. Fear will elasticize time for you. You’ll experience the power of nanoseconds! Your performance will be better for it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Coming up with a good plan means recognizing a bad one. You may blow through hours making plots that fill the wastebasket but it’s nothing compared to what you’d waste following a bad plan. Back to the drawing board. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s not foresight or hindsight but insight that will serve you the best. Examine your reactions to experience — how you’re inter-

preting this and what meaning you’re assigning to it. Insight is the easiest kind to change. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This is an ideal time to clear the air and balance unbalanced relationships. Listen to what’s said: That’s a no-brainer, though it’s even more important to understand what’s not being said. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). People often believe what their friends tell them over what the expert might say. Ultimately though, people believe what they tell themselves. The truth will matter less to people than the source. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Irresistible things are not rational things. They tug at a part of the mind and spirit where logic’s never stepped -- a place of magic and memories and happenings that defy the rules of economics and commerce. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There will be selfish attentionstealers out there — marketers, companies and people who want your focus but will not repay you for it in any meaningful way. Stay self-directed.

Crunch time for NAFTA

U.S., Mexican and Canadian negotiators will meet in Washington D.C. Oct. 11-15 for Round 4 of talks to overhaul the North American Free Trade Agreement. The going could get tough. President Donald Trump, who demanded the rewrite after calling NAFTA a job-killing “disaster’’ on the campaign trail, has said he doubts the talks can succeed and predicted the U.S. would leave the trade bloc. Business and farm groups are worried. U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue has warned that leaving NAFTA would be a “costly mistake.’’ Trade between the three NAFTA countries took

off after the agreement kicked in 23 years ago. And many manufacturers have built complicated supply chains that straddle NAFTA borders; a big change or withdrawal from the agreement would disrupt their operations. The negotiators have yet to really contend with the tough stuff: America’s demand that more auto production be Made-in-America, that a dispute-resolution process favored by Canada be scrapped and that Mexican wages be somehow pushed higher to reduce the cost advantage of manufacturing in Mexico versus the United States.

Spotlight on PepsiCo

Hiring slows?

Wall Street predicts that PepsiCo’s latest quarterly results improved from a year earlier. Financial analysts expect the packaged food and beverage company will report today that its fiscal third-quarter earnings and revenue increased versus the same period in 2016. Pricier snacks and drinks have helped lift sales for PepsiCo in North America this year. Its rollout of higher priced bottled water has also done well.

A new monthly tally of hiring by private companies should provide insight on the health of the U.S. job market. Private U.S. businesses added a healthy 237,000 jobs in August. The tally featured broad gains across several industries, including construction, manufacturing and leisure and hospitality. Economists project that the latest survey by payroll processor ADP, due out today, will show private employers added 140,000 jobs last month.

Reeling him in: Kyle Busch overtakes Chase Elliott in final laps for Dover win

Ben Rhodes earns first trip to Victory Lane in Truck Series Christopher Bell appeared to have the fastest truck in the closing laps of Saturday night’s Las Vegas 350 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but Ben Rhodes had a great restart with seven laps remaining and held on to get his first win in the Camping World Truck Series. The victory, which came in Rhodes’ 45th start in the series, assures him of a berth in the circuit’s second playoff round, which begins after the Oct. 14 Fred’s 250 at Talladega Superspeedway. Bell also is assured of a berth in the Round of Six due to his win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in the playoff opener. “I used every play in my playbook,� Rhodes said of his late-race tactics in the battle with Bell. “I knew if I could keep him close to me, he couldn’t break the [aerodynamic] bubble. ... So I had to keep him at a distance and that was most nervous thing I think I’ve ever done in my life.� Bell, who led a race-high 64 laps, seemed frustrated that he couldn’t overtake Rhodes. 0DWW 6XOOLYDQ *HWW\ ,PDJHV IRU 1$6&$5

Chase Elliott seemed to have his ďŹ rst career Monster Energy Cup victory within reach as the laps wound down in Sunday’s Apache Warrior 400 at Dover International Speedway. But with two laps remaining, Kyle Busch, who had chased down Elliott from more than four seconds back, drove to the high side of the track, took the lead and went on to score his second victory in as many weeks. For Elliott, who drives the No. 24 at Hendrick Motorsports, the defeat was crushing, given the edge he seemed to have in the second half of the race. “It ran green [ag] from the stage break all the way to the end, and I gave it away,â€? he said. “I appreciate my team and their efforts today. The pit stops were great and they kept us in the ballgame. I didn’t.â€? Elliott said that he wished afterward that he had tried some tactic other than continuing to run in the bottom groove as Busch gained on him by running higher on the race track. &KDVH (OOLRWW FRXOG QRW PDLQWDLQ WKH OHDG LQ KLV 1R &KHYUROHW “I should have done something different,â€? he said. “So that’s just DV ODSSHG WUDIĂ€F DQG D FRQVHUYDWLYH VWUDWHJ\ DOORZHG .\OH %XVFK WR on me, and [Busch] WDNH WKH OHDG ODWH LQ 6XQGD\¡V UDFH did a better job than I did. “He was good down there all day long, but he was just getting “At the end of the slowed down too much by the air and everything in front of him. day, that’s what it “He could have just tried to blitz them on the top and get around comes down to.â€? them sooner, but other than that, I think he was just so focused In his winner’s on what he had all day long, making the bottom work, that he just interview, Busch said he sympathized stuck with it.â€?

He started eighth and worked his way to second place behind William Byron by the end of the race’s first stage. On the pit stop following Stage One, Blaney’s crew, led by Greg Irwin, adjusted his Mustang for a loose handling condition but still returned him to the track with the lead. From that point on, it was all Blaney. “It’s really hard to get a car like that, and to be honest we didn’t have it in the first run,â€?

Martin Truex Jr. still atop the standings as 12 drivers advance to second round of Cup Playoffs Points standings and race results from Sunday’s Apache Warrior 400 at Dover International Speedway.

11. MATT KENSETH

3,005 points (finished 11th)

1. MARTIN TRUEX JR

6. KEVIN HARVICK

His 59 playoff points earned throughout the season for winning stages of races and races themselves have given him a big advantage over his competitors heading into the Round of 16.

A loose wheel just after the halfway mark took Harvick out of contention. He advanced in the playoffs on the strength of a third-place finish at Chicagoland and 15 playoff points earned throughout the season.

3,059 points (finished fourth)

2. KYLE BUSCH

3,041 points (finished first)

After suffering his share of bad luck in the early portions of the season, Busch has now won two straight playoff races and four of the past nine races overall.

3. KYLE LARSON

3,034 (finished fifth)

With two fifth-place finishes and a second-place in the three races of the first round of the playoffs, Larson is looking like a sure bet to advance to the championship round at Homestead-Miami Speedway next month.

4. BRAD KESELOWSKI

3,020 points (finished 10th)

After winning the first stage and the 10 bonus points that come with it, he faded when his team’s strategy of pitting late didn’t pay off. “We were holding on to sixth or seventh most of the race, and at the end we tried a little bit of strategy, and it just didn’t quite work out,� he said.

5. JIMMIE JOHNSON

3,017 points (finished third)

Racing at a track where he has 11 Cup wins, Johnson led only five laps. It was the first time he’d been out front since leading four at Daytona in July, but he didn’t show his usual speed at Dover.

3,015 points (finished 17th)

7. DENNY HAMLIN

3,013 points (finished 35th)

After scoring a fourth-place finish in the playoff opener at Chicagoland, Hamlin has not had a top10 finish since. A broken axle knocked him out of contention at Dover.

8. RICKY STENHOUSE JR. 3,010 points (finished 19th)

A pit-strategy gamble by crew chief Brian Pattie earned him seven points in Stage One, and that put him into the second playoff round, which includes a race at Talladega Superspeedway, where he is the most recent winner.

9. RYAN BLANEY

3,008 points (finished 23rd)

Despite an ill-handling car early in the race and an overheating rear axle late, Blaney kept the Wood Brothers Ford running to the end and secured a berth in the second playoff round.

10. CHASE ELLIOTT

3,006 points (finished second)

Elliott came heart-breakingly close to his first Cup win but lost out to Kyle Busch. He still advances to the second round of the playoffs. “I’m just so disappointed in myself,� he said of losing to Busch. “I couldn’t have had it any easier.�

It was a frustrating day for the former Cup champ. “We were just never very good, then I sped on pit road and got to the back and then just couldn’t go anywhere, so, it wasn’t good for us,� he said.

12. JAMIE MCMURRAY

3,003 points (finished ninth)

He hasn’t been overpowering all season, but finishes of 16th, 10th and ninth in the three races of the first playoff round were good enough to advance to the second round.

13. RYAN NEWMAN

2,067 points (finished 13th)

He raced hard all the way to the end of Sunday’s race, but fell two points short of advancing to the Round of 12. “We gave it all we had today, but unfortunately, we just weren’t good enough,� he said.

14. AUSTIN DILLON

2,065 points (finished 16th)

The driver of the No. 3 Chevy at Richard Childress Racing finished 16th twice and 19th once in the three playoff races, and came four points short of continuing to the next round.

15. KASEY KAHNE

2,046 points (finished 14th)

Kahne’s final year of driving the No. 5 Chevrolet at Hendrick Motorsports saw him make the playoffs with a win at Indianapolis, but he wasn’t fast enough to make it to the second round.

16. KURT BUSCH

2,044 points (finished 20th)

Busch ended the regular season with three straight top-five finishes, but was eliminated from the playoffs after posting finishes of 19th, 37th and 20th in the three races so far.

Tigers’ Williams named Player of the Week Northeast Sports Information

JACKSON — A blossoming newcomer on Northeast Mississippi Community College’s football team has picked up a prestigious prize for his efforts in the Tigers’ second straight win. Sam Williams was selected as the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) Defensive Player of the Week for the fifth week of the 2017 regular season. “Sam has come alive,” said Northeast head coach Greg Davis. “His height, speed, strength and range are really important. He just has a different gear that no one else has. The bottom line is he’s a guy that can get off the ball and make plays. I think Sam’s got a bright future. He’s an excellent football player and a great individual.” Williams was sensational for the Tigers during their 27-10 victory at Coahoma Community College. He set a new career-high with 12 tackles overall, which included a game-best eight solo stops. The Montgomery, Ala., native also had a pair of sacks for a total loss of 16 yards and forced a fumble that was recovered by Northeast lineman

Sam Williams J.T. Loving early in the final quarter. “I’m very proud because I’ve pushed myself farther than I ever have before,” Williams said. “Some people say (football) is like a job, but you’ve gotta work to where you can enjoy it. I’m going to enjoy it to the fullest extent.” Williams made an impact on the annual battle of the MACJC’s Tigers essentially from start to finish. He re-

corded his first tackle of the contest on Coahoma’s first play of their second possession. The 6-5, 245-pounder had eight takedowns by the halftime buzzer, including two on special teams. He went on to help Northeast hold the homestanding Tigers scoreless and to only 110 yards of offense during the second half. Williams’ biggest play following the intermission came

midway through the third period when he put pressure on Coahoma’s punter and eventually tackled him at the oneyard line. The visiting Tigers scored moments later to take the lead for good. His second sack of the matchup thwarted a fourth down conversion attempt by the hosts with 12:53 remaining in the fourth quarter. Williams’ forced fumble one drive later allowed Northeast to secure its third of four forced turnovers in the game. “I gave everything that I had,” said Williams. “I just think it’s a blessing. I push harder every week to accomplish a new goal for every game where I can make more plays and get better.” Williams is quickly climbing up the Tigers’ statistical charts. He has accumulated 34 stops, which is fifth best on the team, with 5.5 tackles for loss through five weeks of his freshman campaign. The Lee (Ala.) High School graduate also recovered a fumble on a muffed punt during Northeast’s home triumph over Southwest Mississippi Community College on September 21. He became the first Tiger Please see WILLIAMS | 13A

Lady Braves lose, still division champs Albanie Marlin of Tishomingo County connects in the first inning of Tuesday’s division contest against Itawamba AHS at TCHS. The Lady Braves dropped a 10-9 decision to the Lady Indians but have already wrapped up the division title and will host New Hope Saturday at 1 p.m. in the first round of the MHSAA playoffs.

ROUNDUP CONTINUED FROM 12A

Aggies clinched second place in the division and a first-round playoff game Saturday at Amory with Tuesday night’s 1210 come-from-behind thumping of Booneville. The Lady Blue Devils came to play and weren’t about to let homestanding Kossuth make it easy. They jumped on KHS early, builfing a 6-2 lead after the first two innings. But the Lady Aggies tied the game in the bottom of the third as they plated four runners to square things up and make it a new game. “We had to win this game to make the playoffs for certain and we did what we had to do to pull it out,” said Lyles. After knotting the contest Kossuth forged a

7-4 lead after six before Booneville scored four in the top half of the seventh to regain the lead and force KHS to rally again. And the maroon and white were up to the task. Kossuth scored once to pull to within a run before Ava Meeks hit a solo homerun to tie the game. Moments later Zoe Essary clubbed a walk-off, 2-run shot to win it in dramatic fashion for the Lady Aggies. By virtue of winning, Kossuth wrapped up second-place inside division behind Tishomingo County- who lost at home Tuesday 10-9 to Itawamba AHS- and will travel to face Amory in the first round of the MHSAA playoffs on Saturday. Game time is to be determined.

Cannas thrive in heat, resist disease

Cannas are comm o n l y g r o w n as largespecimen plants Gary and look Bachman f a n t a s tic mass Southern planted Gardening in landscapes. Their tropical-looking foliage lends bold texture to the space until the flowers steal the show from summer through fall. In fact, the cannas I have planted in my Ocean Springs landscape right now are looking the best they have so far this year. The canna lily is another one of my go-to easy landscape plants that everyone should have in their garden. These plants can be used as accents for the back of garden borders or in containers. Contrary to what

Toucan Rose cannas are vigorous, fast growing and highly disease resistant. They feature coral-pink flowers. their delicate appearance might make you think, cannas are extremely durable, and when massed together, they are quite impressive.

The cannas I remember back in the old days were giants that needed to sit in the back row of any landscape bed. With many reaching more than

Mums Are Ready!

5 feet tall, they would rise like sentinels standing guard with their colorful blooms as hats. It seemed this was going to be their lot in life, but plant breeders are doing a good job reducing the size of cannas. If you love the look of tropical plants but need some that grow more like

petunias -- meaning easy to grow -- then look no further. Toucan cannas are fast growers, vigorous and highly disease resistant. They are ideal for our hot Mississippi climates, and they flower like crazy in the summer heat. Toucan cannas are available in a variety of luscious, tropical-themed colors. Toucan Dark Orange (formerly Red) flowers are a gorgeous and fiery reddish orange. Toucan Rose flowers feature coral-pink flowers. Toucan Scarlet has bright scarlet-red flowers and bronze-green foliage, and Toucan Yellow flowers are a clear, sunny yellow. These plants grow to 30 to 48 inches in the landscape. Other good, smaller cannas are the Cannova and Tropical canna series, which typically have flowers that are about 3 to 4 inches across -- pretty big for a smaller canna. The beautiful flowers are soft and form on spikes held high above the wide, lush foliage. These cannas

produce reliable color in a variety of shades from rose to red to yellow. Another good choice is South Pacific Scarlet, which was selected in 2013 as an All-America Selections winner. This plant has 4-inch flowers that bloom all summer long with a blend of scarlet shades. It thrives in hot and humid conditions, which makes it the perfect choice for Mississippi gardens and landscapes. South Pacific Scarlet is a little bigger than the Tropical cannas, with the potential to reach 4 feet tall. Though not required, deadheading will prolong the bloom period. Each plant has multiple flower shoots, and removing the spent and faded flowers will allow the shoot below to develop and flower. For the best growth and flowering, plant these cannas to get full sun at least six hours each day. Keep the soil moisture consistent. While the plants will tolerate drier conditions, flowering will suffer.

Tom Petty, 66, was down-to-Earth rocker BY HILLEL ITALIE Associated Press

Tom Petty, an old-fashioned rock superstar and everyman who drew upon the Byrds, the Beatles and other bands he worshipped as a boy and produced new classics such as “Free Fallin,’� “Refugee� and “American Girl,� has died. He was 66. Petty died Monday at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles a day after he suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Malibu, California, spokeswoman Carla Sacks said. Petty and his longtime band the Heartbreakers had recently completed a 40th-anniversary tour, one he hinted would be their last. “I’m thinking it may be the last trip around the country,� Petty told Rolling Stone last year. “We’re all on the backside of our 60s. I have a granddaughter now I’d like to see as much as I can. I don’t want to spend my life on the road. This tour will take me away for four months. With a little kid, that’s a lot of time.� Usually backed by the Heartbreakers, Petty broke through in the 1970s and went on to sell more than 80 million records. The Gainesville, Florida, native with the

shaggy blond hair and gaunt features was loved for his melodic hard rock, nasally vocals and downto-earth style. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which inducted Petty and the Heartbreakers in 2002, praised them as “durable, resourceful, hard-working, likeable and unpretentious.� He was a beloved member of the rock community and musicians sent their condolences. Bob Dylan, a longtime friend, tweeted “I thought the world of Tom. He was great performer, full of the light, a friend, and I’ll never forget him.� Ringo Starr, featured in the video for “I Won’t Back Down,� tweeted “God bless Tom Petty.� Eric Clapton issued a statement that Petty was “such a huge part of our musical history, there’ll never be another like him.� Petty’s albums included “Damn the Torpedoes,� ‘‘Hard Promises� and “Full Moon Fever,� although his first No. 1 did not come until 2014 and “Hypnotic Eye.� As a songwriter, he focused often on daily struggles and the will to overcome them, most memorably on “Refugee,� ‘‘Even the Losers� and “I Won’t Back Down.�

Mongolian Beef is hearty, quick Mongolian Beef

BY KATIE WORKMAN Associated Press

My family cannot get enough of Asian food, and any time I crank out a dish that announces itself with aromas of garlic, ginger and soy sauce, I pretty much know dinner will be a success. That’s why I’m earmarking this dish for Halloween, since getting something hearty in my boys’ stomachs before the sugar-palooza is pretty much the extent of what I can control with teenagers. This dish allows a wonderful glaze to coat the ultra-thin slices of steak. It reminds me of something you might get at an oldschool Chinese restaurant. Look for shaved beef steak: napkin-thin slices of beef that can come from any part of the cow. It might be labeled “sandwich steak” (for sandwiches like Philly subs), shabu-shabu beef (for Japanese cooking, or possibly Chinese hot-pot), Pho (used in the traditional Vietnamese soup) or braciole beef (from that classic Italian dish where it is wrapped around a filling, usually involving breadcrumbs and cheese). It’s bulgogi in Korean markets. Rouladen in German butcheries. If you have a friendly butcher, ordering this cut of meat can generate some interesting conversation about the different ways to cook it. But back to our Mongolian beef recipe. Mongolian beef can be made with different types of thinly sliced or small-cut meat, and if shaved beef isn’t an option, place a piece of flank steak in the freezer until it’s quite firm but not totally frozen and then thinly slice it across the grain. It will essentially defrost as you cut it. Dusting the slices of beef in cornstarch before sauteing them allows them to brown nicely. Then, when the beef meets with sauce, the cornstarch not only helps thicken the sauce, but it also helps the sauce coat the beef deliciously.

Serves 6, Start to finish: 25 minutes ¼ cup (approximately) plus 2 teaspoons vegetable or canola oil, divided 2 teaspoons finely minced garlic 1 tablespoon freshly minced ginger ½ cup less sodium soy sauce ½ cup packed brown sugar 1 1/2 pounds beef shaved steak 3 tablespoons cornstarch 6 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (white and green parts) Hot cooked brown or white rice to serve In a small saucepan, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and saute for 30 seconds. Then add the soy sauce and brown sugar and bring to a simmer, whisking frequently over medium heat. Allow it to simmer and reduce a bit, until it gets a glazy consistency, about 4 minutes. Set aside. Meanwhile, toss the shaved steak in a mixing bowl with the cornstarch until evenly distributed. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet (the bigger the better) over medium high heat. Line a counter or a large plate with paper towels. Sauté the beef in batches, taking care not to crowd the pan, and flipping it as it browns, about 1 minute on each side. Use a fork or tongs to remove the beef when it is browned, transferring it to the paper towels. Repeat until all of the beef is browned, adding more oil as needed (make sure the oil has a chance to get hot before you add the next batch of beef so it browns up nicely). Pour off any additional oil and return the large skillet to medium high heat. Add all of the beef back to the pan, along with the sauce and scallions. Stir for about 3 minutes, until the sauce is thickened and glazes all of the meat evenly. Serve over the rice.

Hang on to summer flavors with lemony linguine BY KATIE WORKMAN

needed 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon 1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh basil 1 cup crumbled feta cheese Freshly ground pepper to taste Toasted pine nuts or pumpkin seeds to serve (optional)

Associated Press

This is one of those super-fast pastas that you will be happy to add to your repertoire, especially now when many of us are getting swallowed up into back-to-school schedules. You’ll even have time to make a green salad while the water comes to a boil, and prep the rest of the ingredients while the pasta cooks. You can make a complete dinner in less than half an hour. Woohoo! People often wonder how much to salt the cooking water for pasta. The answer is probably more than you’d think. Some chefs say the water should taste like the sea, which may be a bit extreme, but a solid tablespoon of salt in a large pot of water is not overdoing it. The point is that salting the water really can let the salt absorb into the pasta while it’s cooking, adding flavor in a way that adding salt later cannot. You will probably add more salt as you put together your dish and make your sauce, but this first salting step is hard to make too much of. Then, for this particular recipe, you’ll want to be judicious with additional salt. Two reasons: You will be using some of the salted cooking water to make the sauce, and you

will be adding cheese to the pasta. Parmesan can be a little salty, and feta as well, so as you toss the pasta with the cooking water, cheeses and other ingredients, taste as you go. Remind yourself of the golden rule of salt: You can add more later but you can’t take it out. This pasta dish is vegetarian, but you could add some cooked shrimp or cubes of chicken (sauteed, poached, grilled, whatever you like). This would be a great way to use up a

couple of leftover chicken breasts. And while linguine is the suggested noodle here, any pasta shape would work. But every once in a while, it’s just plain fun to have a pasta that you can twirl — ask any kid.

Linguine With Lemon, Feta And Basil Serves 6, Start to finish: 25 minutes Kosher salt to taste 1 pound dried linguine 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more if

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and then cook the pasta according to package directions, until al dente. Before draining, remove 1 cup of the cooking water. Drain the pasta. Immediately return the pasta to the pot and add the olive oil, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, basil, about 3/4 of the crumbled feta, and half of the cooking water. Toss to combine, add salt and pepper to taste, and toss again. If it’s a bit dry and can use a touch more salt, add some or all of the remaining cooking water, and also another glug or two of the olive oil. Turn the pasta into a serving bowl and top with the remaining feta, and the pine nuts or pumpkin seeds, if using. A final grind of pepper is a nice touch both flavor-wise and visually.

Mom is seemingly playing favorites WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am a 13-year-old girl in Montreal. I go to a private high-tech school with nice friends and teachers. I have divorced parents and an elder brother, “Edward.” My mom and I spend quality time together pretty often. We go out and have fun, and she buys me things. The thing is that she does these nice things — such as taking me for ice cream or shopping — and then uses them against me later. She also says I’m rude when I’m just doing my thing. I am sick and tired of having my mom use the fun times and activities we do as leverage to make me feel bad. Why does she do these things? Is it my fault? Is it hers? Should I talk about it again with her? Also, my mom tells me not to bully Edward, when he lies more than I do and often starts the problems. She doesn’t believe me when I tell her the truth, though. Does she like him more than me? I must admit that I get along better with my father and Edward gets along better with our mother. But Mom always tells me we’re equal in her eyes. I don’t believe her. Please help me; I have no one else to turn to. I do believe this could help others with the same problem who are afraid to speak

Dear Annie up. — Lost and Unloved Dear Lost and Unloved: Though we do our best as parents, we’re not perfect, and sometimes we don’t realize the impact of our words. The next time you and Mom are out together, tell her how much you enjoy the quality time. Then explain that you’re feeling anxious about doing these outings together because you’re afraid she’ll bring the memories up in a negative context. Rest assured your mom loves you and your brother equally, my dear. You both will always be No. 1 in her heart, no matter what. Regarding your issues with your brother, here’s the bad news: Elder siblings have been blaming younger siblings for things since the dawn of time. The good news: They eventually grow out of it. In the meantime, when Edward starts to bug you, just ignore him. Dear Annie: This is in response to “First-Time Heart Patient.” I’m not a physician, but I’m a re-

tired open-heart surgery nurse who specialized in critical care. I want to assure “First-Time Heart Patient” that it sounds as if he received excellent care. Apparently, the doctors thought his situation was so critical that rather than discharge him from the hospital, they sent him for cardiac intervention as soon as it could be coordinated. This would be considered an urgent heart catheterization and intervention. Perhaps he was too overwhelmed or too ill at the time to remember the nurses explaining the medication to him, or perhaps the meds had to be given very quickly to prevent further problems. That happens. However, it should all have been in the printed copy of his discharge instructions, which should have been given to him and reviewed with him before he went home. I understand his anxiety and concern about this life-threatening condition. Mended Hearts is a great support group for heart patients after heart attacks and beyond. He can check with his hospital to see whether this is available in his area. Good luck! — J.P. Dear J.P.: I so appreciate your taking the time to write in and share your expertise and experience. Thank you.

Serving Alcorn County

VOL. 3 • NO. 88

City and county swap property

Alcorn Central High School Principal Brandon Quinn talked to Alcorn School District board members at a recent meeting. Quinn is at the helm of many positive changes taking place at the county school.

The city and county recently took steps to realign ownership of several key properties to better fit the operation and use of the sites. The properties include the Crossroads Arena, the Crossroads Museum and depot area, the Corinth Coliseum Civic Center and the Northeast Mississippi Business Incubator. The City of Corinth intends to convey its interests in the arena and the business incubator to Alcorn County, and the county will convey the Corinth Coliseum and its stake in the depot property to the city, according to City Attorney Wendell

Trapp. “I think the general feeling was that probably these things made sense having more singular ownership than joint ownership — that it could be more effectively operated and utilized under those circumstances,” he said. Bill Davis, board attorney for the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors, said negotiations have been in progress for some time, and “both parties believe the transaction will be in their best interests and will be for essentially equal consideration.” Please see SWAP | 2

Alcorn Central principal has vision for changes, success Alcorn Central High School Principal Brandon Quinn has a vision for a better and stronger school. Quinn is making big changes to improve the lives of students and teachers. Three years ago, the former basketball coach created a leadership team of teachers and administrators and the group began making improvements at Bear Country. “We created a new vision with four core values and introduced them as the new normal around the school,” said Quinn. “Make It Better” encourages teachers to make everyday better than the one before, “Take It Personally” reminds staffers that everything they do must be taken personally, “Always Collaborate” asks teachers to work together and “How to be Irreplaceable” encourages staff members to empower their peers through collaboration, leaving a legacy. “We also encourage fitness and staying healthy and ask them to always be open to change,” said Quinn. Alcorn Central’s new

way of life started changing the county school’s culture. “It’s all about creating a positive environment for all students, to encourage them and celebrate them everyday,” said Quinn. “We learned that we had to get rid of outside distractions and focus on our kids.” Quinn said his staff focuses on the three r’s; rigor, relevance and relationship. “These are all small changes that are making huge impacts,” he said. “Rigor isn’t about making classes harder, it’s about digging deeper and making learning exciting. Relevance means we must know what is relevant in order to connect with kids and relationship is key. We must know these kids.” Students aren’t just numbers, he said. “They have voices and when we listen, school becomes better for us and them.” With the help and input from all staff, Bear Block was implemented. “We put into place a different daily schedule for students that included Please see QUINN | 2

Currently, the arena and the incubator property are jointly owned by the city and county.

both boards felt that the ownership and control of those buildings should more properly be with the city.” For Crossroads Arena, the county issued the bonds when the facility was built, and the bond remains the sole obliga-

tion of the county. “For that reason, all agreed it makes more sense for the county to have sole ownership of that facility,” said Davis. The boards believe the changes will lead to “more efficient administration, care and oversight of each

property,” he said. The arena, for example, will need approval from only the county rather than both boards for requests such as expenditures from the bricks and mortar fund, which derives from the tourism tax. One of the key hurdles in the ownership change was amending the interlocal agreement that authorized establishing the arena under the auspices

of the city and county. Approval of the amended agreement came from the Attorney General’s Office within the last couple of weeks. With that approval in hand, the ownership swaps can move forward. “We are getting close,” said Trapp. “We couldn’t do anything until we got the word from the attorney general.

Much like star athletes who appear on banners hanging in the gym, ACT stars grace banners in the school lobby. Students are also pitching in to create more positivity at Alcorn Central. Quinn said one student painted a large mural with

the words, “You Are Beautiful” above mirrors in the girls restroom. Academics are also benefiting. “We are very encouraged by the way everything is going,” said the principal. “Our student’s ACT scores have increased several points above state average and it keeps climbing.” State testing and the school’s rating have improved. “As long as I can remember, Alcorn Central has always been a ‘C’ school,” said Quinn. “Last year, we became a ‘B’. “Alcorn Central being average is now officially over.”

Artifact show offers a look at the past An upcoming artifact show at the Crossroads Arena will give residents a glimpse far into the past. The Magnolia State Archaeological Society will present the Native American Indian Artifact Show on Oct. 14 at the arena. Displayers and vendors from across the southeast are scheduled to attend the free event set for 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. “Some of the very finest Indian artifacts in the country will be on display at the show,” said Bill Breidinger, society president. “It will be a very educational event that will offer a glimpse into the life of prehistoric man.” According to many archaeologists, the Paleo or Cavemen entered North America by crossing the Bering Strait from Asia by way of a land bridge into Alaska more than 16,000 years ago. Breidinger said it is believed that these people then migrated across the Americas. “They had to endure harsh climates, both winter and summer, and follow herds of animals to provide food, clothing and shelter for their families,” he said. “Their tools and weapons were crude and made of stone and bone. The animals they hunted were massive and dwarfed them in size. These included mammoth, mastodon, short faced bears, elk and

Many examples of weapons will be on display at the show, along with grinding stones used to make food. moose along with a variety of small animal. No part of the animals they killed were wasted. Even the bones were used for tools.” Many examples of such weapons will be on display at the show, along with grinding stones used to make food. “As centuries passed, these small groups of people began to ban together for mutual support and protection,” said Breidinger. “The mortar and pestle, or grinding stone, is evidence of the use of nuts, berries and seeds. These gave them a much better diet. Fish and muscles were caught using various methods and were also a big part of their diet.” Also on display will be early examples of pottery, made from clay and ground up shell or bone. “This type of pottery could be used to boil fish and meat scraps into broth

and soups, but the main advantage of the pottery was for storing food for the lean times of winter and to protect it from insects and spoilage,” said the president. Eventually these small groups developed into small villages and they began to settle in the rich and fertile river bottoms where they began to grow crops. “This life progression from a wandering, nomadic people who had entered a new land with no knowledge of what tomorrow would bring to settling in small villages and growing their own food was a progression that took thousands of years,” added Breidinger. “One can only imagine the hardships these people had to endure.” (For more show information, contact Breidinger at 601-635-3222.)

Movie filmed at Jacinto will have an additional showing Those who missed out on tickets to the local showing of a movie partially filmed at Jacinto Courthouse now have another opportunity to see the film. On the evening before “Blood Country, a Mississippi-made Western shows at the Jacinto Courthouse, the movie will play at the Dixie Theatre in Ripley at 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 13. Tickets may be purchased through the link below. Presenting the movie at Ripley and at the Jacinto showing on Oct. 14 will be Matthew Horton, a producer and actor for “Blood Country.” He is the son of Sam Horton of Tiplersville. Also attending will be one of the

film’s lead actors, Chris Bosarge. Seventy-five tickets were available for the showing in the Jacinto courtroom, where scenes were filmed for the movie, and they sold out fairly quickly. “People are excited about it,” said Jacinto Foundation Executive Director Beth Whitehurst. And the foundation has been excited by the attention and interest in Jacinto. “It has gotten us some new volunteers, and that’s awesome,” said Whitehurst. She encourages those attending the premiere to consider a picnic on the lawn before viewing the movie.

The locals who participated in “Blood Country” as extras will receive a DVD of the movie. DVDs will be for sale at the event and afterward through the Jacinto Foundation, which manages the 1854 courthouse. Billed as a true story, the movie is about a man accused of killing his brother and the honorable sheriff who has to bring him to justice. Scenes were filmed at Jacinto in the courthouse, in Tippah County and several other Mississippi locations by Running Wild Films.

Suicide widow speaks out It has been almost six years, but the image is forever seared into her brain — the day Doris “Dee” Dye came home to find her husband in the front yard on Oct. 19, 2011. He was dead by suicide at the age of 38. The Biggersville resident wears a brave smile as she sits at the conference table. She pushes back her long, blonde curls and fidgets with the edges of the notebook she brought along. She is wearing a turquoise blue T-shirt that proclaims, “Be The Voice #stopsuicide.” She has photos of her late husband, Terry Dye. She chose three of her favorites and she pushes them across the table to be viewed. One of them is a picture from their wedding. She mentally fortified herself for this, the hardest of conversations. At the age of 48, Dye said she is the oldest in her group of suicide widows. She takes a deep breath and begins to tell her story. Dye met Terry in 1998. They were married on April 22, 2000. He was injured on the job and she said his employer fired him. Afterward, he got on disability. He had some issues. “I knew he suffered from mental illness. He was bipolar, severe depression and anxiety ... on top of it,” she said. “I think after years of fighting it ... and I do mean years of fighting it ... his feelings just basically won.” Dye started a job with Toyota in Sept. 6, 2011. “I knew he was depressed and it was kill-

Dee and Terry Dye are shown on their wedding day in Gatlinburg, Tenn., on April 22, 2000.

“Please, talk to somebody. It’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay not to be okay. There’s help out there. Get help ... reach our your hand, there’s someone there who will grab it.” Doris “Dee” Dye ing him — me being away from home — because I had taken off for 10 years with him,” she said. Her eyes well up with tears. It’s obvious she is trying not to cry. “... I blame myself a lot.” At the time of Terry’s death, the couple lived in McNairy County in Tennessee. Oct. 19, 2011, began as a normal day. She said she will always remember that morning. Terry was having “a good day,” she recalled. His eyes were bright. He showered and dressed in his favorite clothes and took exceptional time to groom. She said she believed he had done this on purpose —

that he had known from that morning what he intended to do. “I believe he had planned it. He knew what he was doing. He didn’t want me to find him unclean or unkept,” she said. She had just gotten her uniforms for work and he took a picture of her. He called her by his affectionate nickname for her, “Babydoll.” “You are so beautiful. I just love you,” he had said. She tripped and fell into him, accidentally butting him in the nose. She made a joke about his nose and they laughed. She left for work. Dye called him every day on each of her breaks

and on her lunch. That day was no different. When she called him on her first break, he kept telling her he was “cold” and he just “couldn’t get warm.” He told her he loved her, he was proud of her and that he couldn’t imagine his world without her. He also called and spoke to his mother. She got off work just after 3 p.m. and called him, but he didn’t answer. She said he always answered the phone. She worked over an hour’s drive from home and she tried to call him several times on the way home. Concern became fear and fear became panic by the time she got home.

The sense of purpose instilled in Dee Dye by her work with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention has helped her begin a new chapter. Her message for those who are survivors left behind after a suicide: “You are not alone. We’re here for you. Please, talk to us.” They had a long driveway. She pulled up into her driveway at 4:54 p.m. and found him. It was the beginning of a long journey of trauma, pain and grief. “How do you bury your 38-year-old husband?” she asked, with tears running unchecked down her cheeks. It has taken years, therapy, medications, support groups and endless research to try to figure out what happened and then to find her way of coping with it. Gov. Phil Bryant recently signed a proclamation declaring September as Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, drawing awareness to a public health issue that affects people of all ages and backgrounds. Bringing awareness and trying to help others — preventing suicide — is the reason Dye chose to share her story. She said there is such a stigma to suicide. No one wants to talk about it. Ironically, talking about feelings of depression or suicidal thoughts is exactly what one needs to do to get help. “Please, talk to somebody. It’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay not to be okay. There’s help out there. Get help ... reach our your hand, there’s someone there who will grab it,” said Dye. Now, Dye works with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. She said this is the next step in her journey. She is determined Terry’s death would not be in vain. She is not alone in understanding the need to bring this issue out into the open. It is for that reason, Mississippi’s Department of Mental Health has developed a Suicide Prevention plan. “Mississippi’s Suicide Prevention Plan represents an important step for our state to take as we work to ensure mental health and wellness for all citizens. Our public mental health system has worked for years at prevention efforts and to fight the stigma of mental illness. Whether we realize it or not, many of our friends and neighbors have been affected by mental illness or suicide,” said Diana S. Mikula, executive director, Mississippi Department of Mental Health. Mikula echoes Dye’s sentiments regarding the need for individuals to get the help they need. “No matter what is happening in someone’s life, there are people who care and want to offer help and support to anyone who

needs it,” Mikula said. “No one should hesitate to seek help at any time.” “It is imperative that we encourage the citizens of Mississippi to change the way they think about mental health. We need to educate communities on the importance of shattering the silence that often surrounds suicide and encourage people to seek help. Many times, families feel alone in this fight, but the truth is no one is alone. One in five Mississippians are affected by a mental illness. “Suicide is now the 12th leading cause of all deaths in the state of Mississippi, and the third leading cause of death among people from the age 15 to 24 in Mississippi. We are all in this together. Most likely, you know someone who has been affected by a mental illness or impacted by suicide. It touches families from one end of our great state to the other end – including my own family. “I have seen first-hand the effect that suicide has on people’s lives, and my hope is that we do all we can to prevent unnecessary deaths by suicide. By working together, we can strive to ensure that people are aware of the warning signs and risk factors of suicide. Then we can show them how to seek help if needed. With increased understanding, people will be more likely to reach out for assistance as they begin to see symptoms either in themselves or their loved ones,” Deborah Bryant, First Lady, State of Mississippi. Dye participates in fundraisers and events, such as AFSP’s upcoming “Out of the Darkness Walk,” in Tupelo, Saturday, Oct. 21, at Veteran’s Memorial Park, beginning at 1:30 p.m. While Dye doesn’t believe she will ever heal, she has slowly found ways to cope and move forward. She is even engaged. Her fiancé, Kevin Robinson, understands her journey and even supports her by assisting with the fundraising activities. The sense of purpose instilled in her by her work with the AFSP has helped her begin a new chapter. She has a message for those who are survivors left behind after a suicide. “You are not alone. We’re here for you. Please, talk to us,” said Dye. (The DMH toll free help line is available 24 hours a day at 1-877-210-8513, and the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is also available at 1-800-2738255 (TALK), or send a text to the Crisis Text Line at 741741.)

Furry friend gives local hero hope A dog can be much more than just man’s best friend. For U.S. Army veteran Christian Cetina of Booneville, a furry friend named Gus is serving as a beacon of hope for a better way of life. Struggling with debilitating post-traumatic stress disorder after two tours in Afghanistan as an infantryman with the army, Cetina and his wife, Camille, were searching for help when they came across the website of K9s for Warriors and immediately knew they had found something very special: hope. “It was sort of a mutual feeling like, I think this is the answer. It just felt right,” he said. For years Cetina has dealt with symptoms of PTSD which have turned his life upside down. He was so overwhelmed he had to drop out of school, quit driving and quit working. He struggled with being out in public. At K9s for Warriors he found a nonprofit organi-

zation dedicated to providing veterans who have been diagnosed with disabling PTSD, traumatic brain injury or military sexual trauma with service dogs trained to help them deal with stressful situations and move forward with their lives. The dogs and all training are provided free of charge. After a lengthy application process that included obtaining letters from his doctors and mental health doctors and providing extensive information about his life and struggles he was approved to receive a service dog from the program. In July he traveled to the group’s training center, where he was united with Gus and spent three weeks learning how to interact with his new friend. After all the months of waiting the moment he met Gus is one he will never forget. “I just cried. He jumped on me and he licked me all over,” he said. During the three weeks

of training he and Gus bonded as trainers who had already spent more than three months training the dog taught them how to work together. They traveled to malls, the beach, a public park and other locations to experience facing the real world as a team. Cetina said he was inspired by the experiences of his trainer who has a K9s for Warriors service dog himself and has been through the same struggles. “I saw how he is living with it and being able to move forward. It was inspirational to me to know I could get to that place,’ he said. Since returning home the change in his life has been dramatic. “It’s a huge difference,” said Camille. “ He has his life back.” She said it’s clear how Gus helps her husband stay calm in difficult situations and will react to his moods and let him know what he needs to do before he even realizes he may be

U.S. Army veteran Christian Cetina has found hope for dealing with severe posttraumatic stress disorder through his service dog, Gus, provided through K9s for Warriors. struggling. “It makes it easier to see when he needs to take a break and take breath before he gets overwhelmed,” she said. Christian said as a soldier you’re taught to be strong and never ask for help, but he would encourage any servicemember in his situation to reach and

out and see if the K9s for Warriors program is right for them. “It’s tough. We’re taught we’re army guys. We’re taught you don’t express your feelings, you just keep them in and move forward. That’s what we’re trained to do,” he said. “We’re taught to be strong, keep your head

down and move forward, but we’re also taught to ask for a medic when we need one. Right now, for me, this is my medic. Gus, he’s my medic,” he said. To find out more about K9s for Warriors, including how to donate to help them help America’s warriors, visit www.k9sforwarriors.org.

Bingo Bunch helps military by gathering donated supplies The Bingo Bunch is helping those who protect America. The Arby’s Bingo Bunch recently gathered supplies to be shipped overseas to military personnel. Bingo Bunch is a group of senior citizens who get together at the local Arby’s restaurant to play the popular game each week. In the process, they also manage to work on regular community assistance projects, according to the group’s founder, Lanell Coln. “We try to come up with projects on a regular basis. It keeps our senior citizens active and vital with community involvement,” said Coln in a previous interview. The Arby’s Bingo Bunch was started 12 years ago by Coln and Arby’s Manager Linda Pace. The most recent project was done in cooperation with Mid-South Project Package, a non-profit, all volunteer organization that sends a monthly care package to the local midsouth service members as a way of letting them know they have not been forgotten and are appreciated. Project Package’s Coordinator Rickey Pope expressed surprise and gratitude at the amount

that was gathered by the group. “I was both surprised and thrilled when I came in the door and saw all the supplies,” said Pope. The coordinator said he hopes such a sizable show of support will help raise awareness of the needs of the U.S. military troops serving overseas. Normally, he said awareness is heightened when events occur, such as the deployment of the local National Guard, or during the holiday season. However, his wish is that the success of the Bingo Bunch’s project will create another uptick in assistance. Mid-South Project Package was started in August, 2004. Since that time, they have sent approximately 90,000 monthly care packages. “We try to send them to every troop that we know about, no matter what branch of the military. We do this every month year-round,” said Pope. He encouraged others who have a church or social group that would like to host a similar gathering of supplies, to check out the Project Package website to find the most requested items. He said military personnel are always appreciative of help from those

“We try to send them to every troop that we know about, no matter what branch of the military. We do this every month year-round.” Rickey Pope

back home in the U.S.. He said he gets e-mails every day thanking them for the packages and expressing how much it meant to them.

Pope is a veteran himself, after having served for 43 years, and continues to have a heart to help the troops. Coln expressed pride in

the Bingo Bunch. “I am very pleased. They never disappointment me — they always come through,” she said. (For additional infor-

FFA students find success at state convention A talented group of Kossuth students found big success at the recent FFA state convention. Ben Spencer, a 2017 KHS grad and member of the Kossuth FFA Chapter, will lead more than 4,000 members of the Mississippi FFA Association during the 2017-18 school year as the state FFA treasurer. Members from across the state elected the Kossuth native during the 84th Mississippi State FFA Convention recently held at Mississippi State University in Starkville. “Ben just finished up helping host three weeks of Summer Leadership Camp for approximately 300 Mississippi FFA members from across the state,” said KHS Ag teacher Brad Gillmore. “He will continue busy over the next year as he serves as treasurer.” Other state FFA officer activities Spencer will be involved with include Mississippi State Fair Barnyard, National FFA Convention, Dixie National Livestock Show, National FFA Week, Legislative and Sponsors Breakfast, State Contests Day and numerous chapter visits and activities statewide. The son of David Spencer and Jeff and Cindy Benefield, Spencer was a four year FFA member during high school and served as sentinel, vice president. He competed as a member of the Farm Business Management, Parliamentary Procedure, Livestock Judging and Meats Evaluation Teams, earning state championships as a member of all three teams. Spencer also received his State FFA Degree and

was named North District Star in Placement and earned the Proficiency Award in Agribusiness Sales-Placement for his job with the Alcorn County Coop. “As FFA state treasurer, Ben will carry on a long tradition of successful Alcorn School District students who have served as a state FFA officer,” added Gillmore. Former state FFA presidents from the Alcorn School District include Joseph Suitor, 1934-1935; James Moffit, 1956-1957; J. L. Aldridge, 1960-1961; Larry Coleman, 1972-1973; Johnny Allen, 1973-1974, Sammy Mathis, 1974-1975; Ray Nash, 1986-1987; Brett Marlar, 1993-1994, and Daniel Derrick, 20152016.

abilities,” said Gillmore. “The Parliamentary Procedure Contest requires each team member to complete a test on parliamentary procedure and reference rules and procedures located in Robert’s Rules of Order Handbook. Together the team must also demonstrate assigned motions and business during a

mock meeting, answer questions from judges on the assigned motions, and complete a written test.” Gillmore said the team will represent Mississippi in October in the national parliamentary procedure contest at National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. “I am so fortunate to be able to teach such a

wonderful group of students,” said the teacher. “I’ve been teaching at Kossuth for 10 years now, and since I began we have had two state champion teams and 14 state champion teams or individuals that we have been able to take to national competition.” FFA is agricultural education taught through the career and technical education program throughout Mississippi high schools. Gillmore said the FFA mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.
