The constant rainfall of the last few days has been welcomed by the Magnolia State. Less than one week after a burn ban was issued in Alcorn County, a tropical storm system has pushed much needed rain into North Mississippi. The statewide burn ban was lifted late Monday afternoon. Ricky Gibens, Alcorn County Director of Emergency Services, said the rain is a big relief for the Crossroads area. “Over the past few weeks, we have had to deal with a bunch of grass fires. The ground was very dry and the weather conditions were prime for fires to start easily,” said Gibens. “The rain is an answered prayer.” A Fire Weather Watch was issued by the National Weather Service for Corinth and surrounding areas on Oct. 16. The combination of low humidity, low fuel moisture and strong north winds created the potential red flag burning conditions. North Mississippi farmers have also continued to fight drought conditions after

Someone with whom to talk. For many individuals battling cancer or having dealt with the disease, a person to speak with is a necessity. That’s were the CorinthAlcorn County Cancer Support Group comes into play. “I have been involved with them before and know how valuable they are,” said Lanell Coln, who started the group. “A lot of people believe having someone who has been through cancer makes it easier for them to talk with about their battles.” The first meeting of the group took place last month. Meeting two is scheduled for Oct. 27 at the Corinth Library. Meetings, which are held the every fourth Tuesday of the month, begin at 6 p.m. “Those who attended the first meeting were so excited,” said Coln. “They were still in a huddle talking after the meeting.” Donna Gunn, MLT and ASCP with the West Clinic, will be the guest speaker on Oct. 27. “I want this to be their meeting,” said Coln of those Please see SUPPORT | 2

The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter has its cover pet. A summer photo featuring Enzo, a 3-year-old Mexican hairless dog, lounging on a float in his backyard pool, will grace the cover of the shelter’s 2016 pet calendar. Enzo’s poolside photo received the most likes on Facebook during a two-week voting period, which ended earlier this month. Pet owners could enter their favorite photo in the contest for a $25 donation to the shelter. Enzo’s dad, Jason Cesario, takes the credit for helping the slick pup run away with the win.

Enzo, a 3-year-old Mexican hairless dog, lounging on a float in his backyard pool, will grace the cover of the CorinthAlcorn Animal Shelter’s 2016 pet calendar. It will be available for purchase next month.

“The employees at the hospital and my patients all know how special Enzo is to me,” said Cesario, who is a OB/GYN at Magnolia Regional Health Center. “They really made an effort to find his photo, like it and share it.” Of the 1,616 total votes cast on the 31 photos entered in the contest, Enzo received 221 to win the cover. “I’m excited and I know Enzo is, too,” Cesario laughed.

Ole Miss removes flag with Confederate emblem The Associated Press

OXFORD — The University of Mississippi quietly removed the state flag from its place of honor on Monday, heeding the calls of those who say the banner’s Confederate battle emblem is harming the school’s future. Interim Chancellor Morris Stocks waited un-

til the flag was gone before announcing he had ordered it taken down and sent to the university’s archives. Campus police officers furled it from the flagpole where it flew under the U.S. flag, between the white-columned administration building and a marble statue of a saluting Confederate soldier.

Days earlier, the student and faculty senates voted to urge its removal from the Oxford campus, a bastion for Southern elites since its founding in 1848. A group of university leaders then met Sunday night and agreed to take it down. “Because the flag remains Mississippi’s of-

ficial banner, this was a hard decision. I understand the flag represents tradition and honor to some. But to others, the flag means that some members of the Ole Miss family are not welcomed or valued,” Stocks’ statement said. The flag has flown for years in the Lyceum cir-

cle. That’s where deadly white riots broke out in 1962, when James Meredith was enrolled as the university’s first black student, under a federal court order and with protection from a phalanx of U.S. marshals. Today’s students forced this issue as the governor and most state lawmakers

seek re-election on Nov. 3, and many politicians have avoided staking positions. Not so Chris McDaniel, a state senator who lost a contentious Republican primary to U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran in 2014, and insisted that “Ole Miss should fly it, as long as they remain a publicly funded university.”

Firm reports growing demand for cruises The Associated Press

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The American Queen riverboat will spend more time in Memphis in 2016 as demand rises for overnight cruises on the lower Mississippi River. Sales of next year’s cruises are up 200 percent over this time last year, and American Queen operators say more Memphis-New Orleans trips are a big reason, The Commercial Appeal reported.

“The customers are telling us where they want us to be, and they want us to be on the lower Mississippi,” said Ted Sykes, president of American Queen Steamboat Co. The company’s high expectations for 2016 come as it basks in the limelight of a Conde Nast Traveler Best Cruise Lines Readers’ Choice Award. Readers of the travel publication ranked the American

Queen No. 6 in river cruises, the only American company honored in that category, the newspaper reported. The company is based in Memphis because city government helped finance the 436-passenger paddle-wheeler’s purchase and return to service in 2012. The company employs about 225 people, including about 50 in the head office. The Riverfront Development Corp., which op-

erates docking facilities at Beale Street Landing, is seeing more interest in Memphis from other operators as well, RDC president Benny Lendermon said. American Cruise Lines docks the Queen of the Mississippi and American Eagle in Memphis, and Viking River Cruises and the Delta Queen want to enter the market in 2017 with emphasis on lower Mississippi cruises, Lendermon said.

one of our biggest fundraisers of the year, it’s going to be great to have the entire calendar full of pets from the community.” The shelter pocketed more than $600 just from contest entries. Advertising was sold throughout and will pay for the printing of the

calendar. Doehner said she expects the calendars to be back from the printer and ready to purchase by Nov. 20. Calendars will be $15 each. (For more information, visit alcornpets. com or 662-284-5800.)

She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December 2013 and spent almost five months in a Birmingham, Ala., hospital. “I never had a clue what it was,” she said. “My church family and this town were so good to me.”

Coln’s advice is to not be afraid to ask for help. “It was hard for me,” she said. “I always did everything on my own and was the one always helping others.” The support group is for those who have any type of cancer. “People are out there like us who need to share their story so it can help others,” added Coln.

magazine add sponsored by the tourism office. “I loved that ad,” said Amanda Reeves, coowner of Taylor’s Escape. “There are enough people for all of us … we need to work with each other to compete against corporates.” One area discussed in assisting one another was the talk of reviving the Corinth Restaurant Association. Smith brought the idea to the table. “What makes a chapter successful is local involve-

ment,” said Mike Cashion, Executive Director of the Mississippi Hospitality & Restaurant Association. “Chapters can be very successful and this meeting is a classic example of taking a step forward.” Smith expressed a concern about trackable advertising. “One battle I fight is I really don’t have a way to see if it works,” he said. “We as an industry have to understand how you can spend the least amount of money and get the biggest bang,” said

Cashion. None of the owners in attendance saw an increase in business during events such as Hog Wild, Slugburger Festival, Alcorn County Fair and Lighthouse Classic. “They hurt more than they help,” said Smith. Events are designed to keep people in one certain spot, according to Smith. Local restaurant owners would like the chance to be vendors at the events. “It might be something I do not want to do, but I would like to have the option,” said Smith. “We should have the option to sell food at festivals,” added Bryant. Al-Qawwas, owner of JT’s Falafel & Kababs Mediterranean Cuisine, suggested finding a way to promote each other. “I don’t mind working together,” he said. “I would send you some people one month and

you could help me the next month.” Knowing what is coming to Corinth would be beneficial, according to Bryant. “It would help us prepare,” he said. “I feel like multiple-day events help everyone.” A listing of each restaurant and its location available at each establishment would be beneficial, according to Reeves. “Something I would like to see is a map with just local restaurants on it,” said Reeves. “I think that is a great idea and it’s something we could put in hotels,” added Hedges. Cashion said there are several options for the owners to take advantage. “There is a change going on in our industry,” he said. “We recognize that and need to be relevant to your needs.” Burns advised the group on how the welcome center and airport are helping. “They are two good avenues for you,” she said. “They have employees who love Corinth and want to help.”

Today in History Today is Tuesday, Oct. 27, the 300th day of 2015. There are 65 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 27, 1787, the first of the Federalist Papers, a series of essays calling for ratification of the United States Constitution, was published.

On this date: In 1880, Theodore Roosevelt married his first wife, Alice Lee. In 1922, the first annual celebration of Navy Day took place. In 1938, Du Pont announced a name for its new synthetic yarn: “nylon.” In 1954, U.S. Air Force Col. Benjamin O. Davis Jr. was promoted to brigadier general, the first black officer to achieve that rank in the USAF. In 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, a U-2 reconnaissance aircraft was shot down while flying over Cuba, killing the pilot, U.S. Air Force Maj. Rudolf Anderson Jr. In 1978, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin were named winners of the Nobel Peace Prize for their progress toward achieving a Middle East accord. In 1980, opera star Beverly Sills gave her last public performance during a farewell gala at New York’s Lincoln Center. In 1990, death claimed bandleader Xavier Cugat at age 90, author Elliott Roosevelt at age 80 and French movie director Jacques Demy (”The Umbrellas of Cherbourg”) at age 59. In 1995, a sniper killed one soldier and wounded 18 others at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. (Paratrooper William J. Kreutzer was convicted in the shootings, and condemned to death; the sentence was later commuted to life in prison.) In 2004, the Boston Red Sox won their first World Series since 1918, sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 4, 3-0.

Corinth, Miss.

State won’t be voting on pot initiatives STARKVILLE — Slowly, almost imperceptibly, the shadow of legal marijuana is growing in the U.S. Based on the inability to generate sufficient ballot initiative signatures, it appears unlikely Mississippi Sid Salter will join that movement any Columnist time soon and certainly not by virtue of the 2016 election. But electorates in Alaska, Colorado, Oregon, Washington and the District of Columbia have legalized small amounts of marijuana for adult recreational use. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, some 21 states had legislation introduced in 2015 that would in some way allow or advance policy for adult recreational use of marijuana, including Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. One Georgia bill proposes a constitutional amendment on marijuana legalization for adult use. Legalization bills have failed in Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Maryland, Maine, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Texas, and West Virginia. Legislative proposals for an initiative petition or constitutional amendment failed in Louisiana, Missouri and Nevada. Marijuana legalization study legislation failed in Illinois, New Hampshire and Wyoming. On the other end of the political spectrum, a Maine measure failed that would have prohibited localities from referendums to legalize recreational use of marijuana. There are two initiative-and-referendum efforts underway to get a marijuana legalization question in front of Mississippi voters. The first one is Initiative 48, sponsored by Kelly Jacobs of Hernando, which would put the question on the ballot: “Should the use, cultivation, and sale of cannabis and industrial hemp be legalized for persons 21 years or older?” The proposed ballot summary for the initiative reads as follows: “Initiative Measure No. 48 would legalize the use, cultivation and sale of cannabis and industrial hemp. Cannabis related crimes would be punished in a manner similar to, or to a lesser degree, than alcohol related crimes. Cannabis sales would be taxed 7 percent. Cannabis sold for medical purposes and industrial hemp would be exempt from taxation. The governor would be required to pardon persons convicted of non-violent cannabis crimes against the state of Mississippi.” The second is Initiative 52, sponsored by Steven Griffin of Laurel, which would put a slightly different question before voters: “Should the Mississippi Constitution be amended to legalize and tax cannabis pursuant to the Mississippi Cannabis Freedom Act?” The proposed ballot summary for that initiative reads as follows: “Initiative Measure No. 52 would amend the Mississippi Constitution to include the Mississippi Cannabis Freedom Act (‘the Act’). The Act legalizes cannabis for persons eighteen years of age and older, legalizes cannabis for medical purposes, authorizes the collection of taxes on cannabis, and includes various other definitions and mechanisms for implementation of the Act. For purposes of this measure, ‘cannabis’ means hemp, weed, herd, marijuana, grass, wax, concentrate extract, and hashish.” Two political action committees, Mississippi Alliance for Cannabis and Team Legalize, have been working statewide to change the state’s pot laws by gathering signatures in support of Initiative 48. Initiatives 48 and 52 supporters were required each to garner the signatures of more than 107,000 registered voters’ on their petitions by Oct. 2, to get the measure on the 2016 ballot. That deadline was not met. While not headed to the ballot in 2016, expect the pro-weed efforts in Mississippi to continue in much the same way that it has in the rest of the country. Passing such legislation in this state, well, that’s another matter entirely. (Daily Corinthian columnist Sid Salter is syndicated across the state.

Prayer for today Lord God, may I not wait until I am afflicted and cannot use them to thank thee for my blessings. Guard me against infirmities that are brought on through indulgences, and help me to control my life. May I never forget that regret will not retrieve the life that is spent, even if it brings forgiveness and hope for the days to come. Amen.

A verse to share “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” 1 Timothy 5:8

Biden decision leaves both parties in disarray Joe Biden has made it official: He is not running for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination. It’s the latest development in a presidential campaign cycle that has not been going according to script. Biden said that personal factors played a part in his decision. At a time when few children die before their parents, he has had to endure the grief of losing two of his four children – his daughter Naomi in December 1972, his son Beau last May. “There’s no timetable for this process,” he said in announcing his decision Oct. 21. But it also has to be said that the voters this year don’t seem to be putting a high value on Biden’s greatest strength: experience, 36 years in the Senate, seven as vice president. We have seen that in the Republican withdrawals. Rick Perry, who served 14 years as governor of Texas, withdrew Sept. 11. Scott Walker, who has served five years as governor of Wisconsin and eight as Milwaukee County executive, withdrew Sept. 21. And Jim Webb withdrew, at least from the Democratic race, on Oct. 20, a day before Biden. His experience includes Marine service for which he was awarded the Navy Cross; writing ac-

claimed novels; serving as Ronald Reagan’s Navy secretary; and serving as a senator Michael from VirginBarone ia, the state which voted Columnist closest to the national average in the last two presidential elections. That leaves the two parties with clear front-runners in the polls, both with weaknesses that threaten to make them unelectable in November. Hillary Clinton now looks like the inevitable Democratic nominee. Bernie Sanders, her only rival who polls over 1 percent, handed her a lifeline in the Oct. 13 debate when he said he was tired of hearing about her “damn emails.” But the FBI is still investigating what went out over the private email system Clinton used as secretary of state. An indictment is at least theoretically possible. Even absent that, her candidacy has been damaged. Substantial majorities of Americans believe she is not honest or trustworthy. She currently wins only 44 percent against five leading Republican candidates – well below Obama’s 51 percent in 2012.

Most parties would not want to go to the voters with such a candidate. But the Democrats seem to have no choice. Their next debate is scheduled for Nov. 14 in Des Moines. Is there any justification for putting Martin O’Malley (0.5 percent in recent polling) or Lincoln Chafee (0.0 percent) on the stage? Does anyone expect that Sanders will overtake Clinton among any Democratic constituency except high-education white liberals? As for the Republicans, Donald Trump has outlasted by several months the confident pronouncements that his candidacy would inevitably flame out. His poll numbers have dipped a bit after each debate, and then revived. His closest current competitor, Ben Carson, has no executive or electoral experience and considerably less knowledge of politics. No other candidate scores in double digits. Republicans debate again on Oct. 28 in Boulder and Nov. 10 in Milwaukee. Then come the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. History tells us that there is plenty of time for voters to change their minds, and current polling tells us that voters can move quickly between various non-Trump candidates.

There’s a widespread expectation that the party “establishment” will settle on one alternative to Trump. But that process isn’t automatic, and when you look for that “establishment” it’s hard to find at any given location. As for Democrats, their turnout has been in decline since 2008, and it’s not clear that Clinton can match Obama’s black turnout or millennial percentages. Obama’s low job approval, which has not topped 47 percent since 2013, provides a weak basis for a third consecutive Democratic victory. That low job approval, more than the visible disarray in both parties, is probably the biggest factor driving politics in this presidential cycle. The record audiences for the presidential debates suggest that voters are casting about restlessly for alternatives. And that the incumbent vice president’s decision not to run may have been prematurely determined. (Daily Corinthian columnist Michael Barone is senior political analyst for The Washington Examiner, a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a Fox News Channel contributor and a co-author of The Almanac of American Politics.)

To end wars, try Trump vs. Sanders Barack Obama sought as his legacy to bring an end to the two longest wars in U.S. history. On Oct. 15, he, again, admitted failure. The 9,800 U.S. troops in Afghanistan will remain another year. And, on Inauguration Day 2017, 5,500 U.S. troops will still be there. Why cannot we leave? Because, if we do, we risk the re-seizure of power by the Taliban we drove out 14 years ago, and a wipeout of all we have accomplished in America’s longest war. When can we come home? Never, if we hope to secure that for which we have already paid with 2,500 U.S. dead. For not only have the Taliban shown they can capture cities like Kunduz in the north, ISIS has arrived to begin its trademark atrocities. One can only imagine what will happen to the men, women and girls we liberated when we leave, and Kabul falls. Think Saigon, 1975. In reluctantly deciding not to depart, Obama seems to have learned the lesson of Iraq. There, we have gone back in with 3,000 U.S. troops, after the president had pulled out the last 10,000. And what is the balance

sheet now on Operation Iraqi Freedom, the bloodiest and most costly American Pat war since Buchanan Vietnam? The Islamic Columnist State controls Mosul, Ramadi and the huge Sunni province of Anbar. Baghdad relies on U.S. air power against ISIS, but looks to Tehran for guidance. The Shiite militias indispensable to the regime’s survival are, most of them, pro-ayatollah and anti-American. Unloved and unappreciated, the American Empire soldiers on. Understandably, President Obama does not want a collapse on his watch in Baghdad or Kabul, though he opposed the Iraq war and was never an enthusiast of nation-building in the Hindu Kush. The liberal interventionists and neocons who goaded George W. Bush on got us into these wars. But they had no clue as to what would happen once we got in, and they have no idea today on how we can get out. Indeed, they have no desire to get

out. Rather, they want us to repudiate the nuclear deal that the five permanent members of the Security Council and Germany negotiated with Iran, and impose new sanctions. And if Iran refuses to renegotiate and yield, they would happily exercise “all options on the table.” They would not rule out yet another American war, on Iran, which has a larger population than Afghanistan and Iraq put together, and is far better prepared and equipped to defend itself. They want the United States to sustain the “good” rebels in Syria and to insist that “Assad must go.” Asked who rises if Assad falls, if not ISIS, they dismiss the question. Republican presidential candidates like Lindsey Graham are even talking up sending U.S. ground forces back into Iraq and into Syria. What we could accomplish there, and when we could get out, are questions that are not only unanswered, they are unasked. In analyzing the presidential race, the one conclusion upon which all agree is that the anti-Washington, antiincumbent sentiment is far

deeper and wider than most had imagined. The surge in the polls of Bernie Sanders at the expense of Hillary Clinton, and of Donald Trump at the expense of the GOP establishment, are the political stories of the year. And what do Socialist Sanders and Capitalist Trump have in common? Both opposed the Iraq War. Trump, unlike Carly Fiorina, would talk to Vladimir Putin. Unlike the departed Scott Walter, he would not tear up the Iran nuclear deal the day he took office. He would monitor and enforce it. Trump has not laid out a broad foreign policy. Yet, the sense one gets is that, like Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan, he is a “peace through strength” Republican who looks to extricate us from Mideast wars now underway, and not be looking to start new ones. For anti-interventionists, Trump vs. Sanders is the ideal race.

Jaybirdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chitlins BY JIMMY REED Columnist

If reading novels in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old age that were read in boyhood indicates regression into second childhood, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m headed that way. Before my 10th birthday, I read everything Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote, especially the Tarzan novels. Burroughs didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start out as a writer, but after reading pulp magazines, he observed, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew I could write stories just as entertaining and probably a whole lot more so than any I read in those magazines,â&#x20AC;? and he did, writing seventy novels in all. Sixty years later, I am rereading those novels, and enjoying them as much as the first time. The adventurous story lines, inimitable descriptive powers, and numerous sub-plots keep me turning pages long into the night. This great American writerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s craftsmanship was impeccable: He was a quintessential wordsmith; his command of grammar, vocabulary and syntax was limitless, and his insight into human nature was profound. One such insight explains why I enjoy chitterlings (called â&#x20AC;&#x153;chitlinsâ&#x20AC;? in the Mississippi Delta, where they are haute cuisine). In his novel â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Beasts Of Tarzanâ&#x20AC;?, Burroughs states, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tarzan could eat raw meat, and enjoy small rodents and grubs, which seems to us who have been always â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;civilizedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; a revolting fact; but had we learned in childhood to eat these things, they would seem no more sickening to us now than do many of our greatest dainties, at which a savage African cannibal would turn up his nose.â&#x20AC;? While growing up on my fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cotton farm, my boyhood best friend and mentor, Jaybird, taught me to enjoy what he called â&#x20AC;&#x153;soul food,â&#x20AC;? es-

pecially chitlins. The old black man killed hogs in the dead of winter, when all meteorological factors were most propitious, especially the temperature â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the colder, the better. When all the preparation and cooking were done, his herd of porkers had been converted to hams, chops, hocks, ribs, souse, pickled feet and ears, cracklings, and, of course, my favorite: chitlins. Before dropping the entrails into a huge black iron cauldron set to boiling with firewood, Jaybird cut and split the intestinal delicacies into footlong sections, scraped off the fat, and purged them in hot water. His chitlins were the best I have ever eaten. As a boy, I ate whatever Jaybird ate. When fishing, we enjoyed sardines, crackers, and onions, still my favorite day-on-the-lake snack. His barbecued goat, deer sausage, and fried chicken attracted eaters from all over, including one little white kid â&#x20AC;&#x201D; me. But chitlins were his chef-dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeuvre, served fried and boiled, with a fresh green salad, hot peppers, and cold buttermilk. What a feast! Nowadays, folks who have been always civilized turn up their noses at such a feast, especially my daughters, who consider it one of their dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most disgusting, uncivilized indulgences. But on Old Man Winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coldest days, I always wish that, just one more time, I could sit down to a heaping plate of Jaybirdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chitlins.

Focus on solutions, not problems Some people search for problems. They look for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong in their lives, with other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives, and with the world. Some people even Bryan b e c o m e Golden fixated on problems Dare to Live to the point Without Limits that all the positive aspects of their lives become obscured. They complain incessantly about problems to anyone who will listen. These people dismiss any suggestions of possible solutions as unworkable. Some offer endless excuses as to why there are no viable solutions for their problems. They explain in detail why their problems are unique. This is what happens when people focus on problems rather than solutions. Successful people understand that there is a solution for every problem, and they work at become experts at finding it. They identify a problem only once and then devote their energy to fixing it. They recognize taking action is more important, and productive, than complaining. In order to move forward toward your goals, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s imperative to focus on the solutions you need. Dwelling on problems inhibits the discovery these solutions, discourages you, and generates a negative outlook. Before you can search for a solution, you must accurately identify the true problem. This entails distinguishing between problems and symptoms. Symptoms are caused by problems. However, symptoms that persist when the root problem has not been fixed, create secondary problems. For example, you observe water dripping from the ceiling in your house. Putting a bucket on the

floor under the leak addresses the symptom. But before you can fix the problem, you must identify exactly what it is. There are several possibilities. A pipe is broken. The roof has a leak. Someone spilled water on the floor above. There is a leaky drain on an upper floor. Any fix based on an inaccurate or false understanding does not correct the problem. After identifying a problem, the next step is to come up with the best possible solution. A good approach for this is to create a list of all imaginable solutions. List anything and everything that comes to mind, without evaluating which is the best idea. Once you have a listed all possible solutions you have thought of, then evaluate each option.

Michael Ryan Burcham

Michael Ryan Burcham, beloved son, brother, and friend to many, passed away on Saturday Oct. 24, 2015.

Each count is punishable by at least 10 years in prison. Chambers, 25, of Stillwater, has yet to be formally charged — a step that requires prosecutors to file additional documents in court. The judge scheduled the next hearing for Nov. 13. After the hearing, Chambers’ attorney, Tony Coleman, said when he told Chambers about the deaths, “her face was blank.” He said he was not sure Chambers is aware that she’s in jail. Chambers had yet to ask to see her parents or boyfriend. On Sunday, Coleman said there was no indication that she had been drinking before the crash. Police are awaiting blood tests to determine whether she was impaired by drugs or alcohol. He said he spoke with Chambers for about an hour. “During that entire interview, I was not satisfied at all that I was communicating with a competent individual,” Coleman said.

STILLWATER, Okla. — A woman accused of driving her car into a crowd of people at Oklahoma State University’s homecoming parade “purposely” went around a barricade and ran a red light before crashing into the spectators, a prosecutor said Monday. Arguing for a $1 million bail, Payne County District Attorney Laura Thomas told the judge that if Adacia Chambers is convicted in the deaths of four people, she is “looking at four life sentences.” Special District Judge Katherine Thomas granted the bond request and ordered a psychological evaluation for Chambers, who is being held on preliminary counts of second-degree murder. Chambers appeared at Monday’s hearing via video. The only time she spoke was to say “yes” when the judge asked if she could hear her. Prosecutors asked for more time to interview the dozens of witnesses who were at the scene Saturday and said one of the injured is in a “fragile” state, which could lead to more charges. In Oklahoma, seconddegree murder charges are warranted when

ther, aunt and boyfriend appeared outside the courthouse, telling reporters that they don’t know what led to the crash. Chambers father, Floyd Chambers, said his daughter had received inpatient mental health treatment several years ago. He said nothing seemed amiss recently, except his daughter had recently called and said she wanted to move back home. “I thought that was kind of strange, but I don’t know. She was very good about hiding her problems because she didn’t want the family to worry about her, and she kept to herself about things like that,” Chambers said, fighting back tears. He said his daughter is a talented artist who loves music. “I would like them (the public) not to think so badly of her, because that’s not just who she was. That’s not who I raised,” he said. “And when we get all the test results back, we’ll know.” Her aunt, Lynda Branstetter, said Chambers told her that she had recently quit a second job because her other job at Freddy’s Frozen Custard and Steakburgers had asked her to pick up more hours. She said she saw Adacia Chambers on Friday night and that nothing seemed unusual. “This is so not her. This is not her character,” Branstetter said tearfully. “She’s one that’ll give you a big hug and she’s

one if you’re down, she’ll make you smile. That’s my Adacia.” Her boyfriend, Jesse Gaylord, said Chambers had difficulty sleeping and only got an hour or two of sleep before leaving for work Saturday morning. Gaylord said he never saw Chambers take any drugs — either prescription or illegal — and that the last time they drank alcohol was a few weeks ago, when they each had one beer on his birthday. “As far as for her to purposefully go and do something, that would just not be possible. ... She would never do anything like that consciously,” Gaylord said. Gaylord said he’d never even seen Chambers break any traffic laws. “She’s honestly one of the most cautious drivers that I’ve ever ridden with. She never turns out in front of any cars. She doesn’t ever run yellow lights,” he said. The crash killed three adults and a 2-year-old boy. At least 46 other people hurt, including many children. On Monday, the Oklahoma medical examiner’s office identified the boy killed in the crash as 2-year-old Nash Lucas. The dead adults were identified as Nikita Nakal, a 23-year-old MBA student from India at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, and a married couple, Bonnie Jean Stone and Marvin Lyle Stone, both 65, of Stillwater.

crack the case. Horse meat is illegal in Florida, but a black market for it exists, said Nick Atwood, a spokesman for the Animal Rights Foundation of Florida. During the 2010 Florida Legislative Session, he said, a bill passed that strengthened the state’s restrictions on the sale of horse meat for human consumption. It is now illegal in Florida to sell, purchase, distribute, transport or possess horse meat unless “it is clearly stamped, marked, or described as horse meat for human consumption.” There are currently no U.S. slaughterhouses that process horse meat, however, making it difficult to obtain legally. While eating horse meat is generally taboo in the U.S., it is common in dishes in some Caribbean and European countries. Atwood said there are some people living in the U.S. willing to pay top dollar. It’s not the first time horses have been targeted for meat in Florida. In July, animal rescue officials said a competitive show horse named “Smart Amanda Whiz” was slaughtered for its meat in Hialeah. And earlier this month, officials in Palm Beach County raided three slaughterhouses accused of illegally selling horse meat. “The horses are slaughtered horribly,” Atwood said. “There’s no illusion of humane slaughter.”

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Just days ago, the nearly 1,300-pound, powerful jumping horse with a shiny chestnut coat named Phedras de Blondel arrived at his new home in the U.S., a farm owned by a champion rider in Florida. On Sunday morning, his owner discovered a horrific scene near his stall: the 12-year-old gelding had been slaughtered and butchered, most likely for his meat. Only his head and neck were left intact. Now, detectives are trying to find the perpetrators. “What they did to this horse had nothing to do with his value,” Debbie Stephens, who owns the 27-acre ranch in Palmetto, said Monday. She would not disclose the price she paid for the horse, but show horses can sell for tens of thousands of dollars. “It’s one of the cruelest things that could happen to any horse. This just turned my life around.” Stephens is a veteran show jumper and holds the women’s high jump record of 7 feet, 8 inches. Her husband was a co-designer of the show jumping courses for the 2008 Olympic Games in China. The couple and others have raised more than $18,000 toward a reward they hope will lead to an arrest. Manatee County Sheriff’s deputies say that’s what it will take to

Manhunt prompts class cancellations LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Unnerved by a manhunt overlapping its bus routes, a rural Kentucky school district called off classes Monday as police searched for a man with a long criminal past accused of shooting and injuring a Tennessee officer and then firing at a state trooper in Kentucky. The 62-year-old suspect, Floyd Ray Cook, was believed to be on foot after the Saturday shootout with the Kentucky trooper, authorities said Monday. Cook was last seen in the hilly, wooded countryside in Cumberland County, Kentucky, which borders Tennessee. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation added Cook to its Top Ten Most Wanted list and described him as armed and dangerous.

U.S. plants. Details of the proposed contract weren’t immediately available. The UAW said local union leaders will meet Wednesday in Detroit to vote on the tentative agreement. If they approve it, GM’s U.S. hourly workers will vote on it. The agreement covers 52,600 U.S. auto workers at 63 GM facilities in the U.S. UAW President Dennis Williams said the proposed deal will provide “long-term, significant wage gains and job security benefits now and in the future.”

Woman, dog that saved her reunite BREWSTER, N.Y. — A blind woman who was struck by a school minibus while crossing a suburban New York street says her goal for recovery was to bring home the guide dog that jumped in front of the bus to save her. Audrey Stone and Figo the dog were reunited at her Brewster home on Monday, after nearly four months of recuperation for both. Stone and her golden retriever were together for over six years before the crash in June. He was trained by the Guide Dog Foundation. Witnesses say Figo leaped between Stone and the oncoming bus, then wouldn’t leave her side once both were hit.

State confirms new West Nile virus case JACKSON — One new case of West Nile virus has been confirmed in Mississippi, bringing the state’s total to 38 so far this year. The Mississippi State Department of Health said Monday that the new case of the mosquito-borne illness was confirmed in Hinds County. One death was previously reported in Attala County. So far this year, 11 cases have been confirmed in Hinds County; eight in Rankin County; five in Madison County;

two each in Forrest, Simpson and Yazoo counties; and one each in Adams, Attala, Copiah, Covington, Lauderdale, Marion, Montgomery and Washington counties. The Health Department only releases statistics about laboratoryconfirmed cases.

Police say trooper dragged by vehicle JACKSON — Authorities are searching for a suspect who officials say dragged a state trooper on his car in Jackson. WLBT-TV reports the state trooper attempted to pull over a man on Highway 18 Sunday eve-

ning. Mississippi Highway Patrol trooper Eric Henry says the trooper smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle. When the trooper reached for the man’s license, the suspect took off, dragging the trooper about 100 yards. A police chase ensued, but the suspect evaded officers after ditching the car. The search for the suspect is ongoing.

Rails to trail path work set to begin HATTIESBURG — Authorities say work will soon begin on a walking and biking path between downtown Hattiesburg

and the University of Southern Mississippi. It’s part of the Longleaf Trace rails-to-trails project. The Hattiesburg American reports that city engineer Lamar Rutland told the City Council last week he expects to meet this week with the contractor. He says crews are expected on site in the next few weeks. The spur will cover about two miles along a former railroad line. Rutland says another tail spur will have to be rebid because all bids were too high. It would run from the Hattiesburg train depot to Chain Park.

Gospel Obedience This language points out: Rom. 6:17-18. I. The state of sinners. They are “servants” (bondservants) of sin.” Sin is pictured as a raging, commanding king, and the sinner as a cowardly slave. He is a slave to the devil and to his own desires. (Verse 16) The members of his body are instruments of unrighteousness. (Verse 19b) His eyes see evil things; his ears hear evil things; his tongue speaks evil things; his hands work mischief; his feet follow in forbidden paths. II. The obedience they should render: That “form of teaching” or doctrine. The teaching or doctrine is the pattern or the mould: the hearers are the metal. They conform their lives unto the pattern. Note here: 1. The doctrine. (I Cor. 15: 1-8) (a) “That Christ died,” etc. (b) “That he was buried.” (c) “That he hath been raised.” etc. (d) “That he appeared,” etc. 2. The form of it. (a) Death with Christ. (Rom. 6:6; Gal. 2:20; 5: 24) (b) Burial with Christ. (Rom. 6:4) (c) Resurrection with Christ. (Col. 2: 12) (d) Appearance in newness of life. (Rom. 6: 4, 5, 8) III. The spirit of acceptable obedience: “From the heart.” The heart consists of three functions, namely: the intellect, the emotions, and the will. 1. To obey intelligently, or understandingly. (Matt. 28: 19) 2. To obey emotionally, or affectionately. (Matt. 22: 37) 3. To obey willingly, or voluntarily. (rev. 22: 17) IV. The blessings that follow: 1. Freedom. “Being made free from sin” - from the practice of it, from the guilt of it, from the bondage of it, from the horrible results of it. (verse 14.) 2. A new Master: “Ye became servants of righteousness servants of God.” The members of the body become instruments of righteousness. (Verse 19) The eyes now see good things; the ears hear good things: the tongue speaks good things; the hands do good deeds; the feet follow in paths of peace. 3. A happy termination: “And the end eternal life.” (verse 22, 23) An end without an end! The end is a wonderful beginning! We are God’s creatures. We live in his world and feast on his bounty. Upon us his marvelous love has been bestowed. Unto him we must answer at last in judgment. We plead with you to accept this great doctrine without reservation, to obey it from the heart: for only the obedient shall see salvation. Have you done what Christ said you must do to be a follower of him? 1. Hear the word and do what it says (Matthew 7:24-27) 2. Believe Jesus to be God’s son. (John 8:24)

The tech giant, due to deliver fiscal fourth-quarter financial results today, has reported blockbuster sales and profits over the last year, thanks to the popularity of its new, larger-screen iPhones. Beyond iPhones, financial analysts will be looking for hints as to how sales of Apple’s much-vaunted smartwatch are faring.

Dear Annie: My father has a bunch of serious medical problems. We’ve never been close. Dad was a heavy drinker and always yelled at me. He was extremely rude, critical, sarcastic and angry all the time, for no reason. Once, he threw me out of a slow-moving car. I’ve attempted suicide three times, and Dad refused to visit me in the hospital. I’m still angry about this. I suspect he could pass away soon, and I would like to have some meaningful dialogues before that happens. I also have a terrible secret I’d like to tell him before he dies. Since his health problems started, Dad has changed for the better, but we still rarely talk to each other. How do I begin to tell him my secret? — Scared Son in Florida Dear Scared Son: Since you and Dad have such a hard time communicating, it might help to bring in a third party to facilitate the initial conversation — perhaps an understanding relative, mutual friend or clergyperson. You can always start by telling him you care about him and worry about his health. However, we have to wonder why you are so desperate to tell him a “terrible secret.” It doesn’t sound as if

Annie’s Mailbox you seek his counsel on the matter, only that you are trying to unburden yourself at his expense. Examine your motives. If telling Dad will bring him some peace of mind and make your relationship better, go ahead. Otherwise, please discuss your secret with someone who can be of assistance or support. Dear Annie: I am a 17-year-old junior in high school and get invited to various parties. One girl, “Sarah,” likes to show Rrated movies. Annie, I am extremely uncomfortable with the content of these movies, but Sarah says she’s doing me a favor by making me watch them. The synopses of some of these films make me physically ill. I now avoid Sarah’s parties (and sometimes Sarah) so I won’t be pressured. I refuse to lower my standards, but I am tired of Sarah jumping down my throat about it. How do I get her to respect my choices? — Need Suggestions Dear Need: Every crowd has one per-

son who enjoys tormenting those who are easily flustered. Just because you are old enough to watch R-rated films doesn’t mean you have to. Instead of becoming upset with Sarah’s shenanigans, try being completely bored. Sigh and say, “Thanks for your interest in my education.” Smile. Walk away. She’ll tire of it eventually. Dear Annie: I read “L.K.’s” response to “Baby Mama,” who wants to get pregnant. L.K. said having a baby at age 19 limits any further education. I was 19 when I became pregnant with my first child. However, I went on to finish college and now have a BA in education and a teaching career. I agree that it is irresponsible to want a baby just because her friends have one. And it’s true that finishing school was a struggle. However, if she works hard, she can still have a good education and a career. — Managed It Dear Managed: Those who truly want an education can achieve that goal. But we worry that young women like “Baby Mama” don’t see any further into their future than nine months.
