City of Selmer settles Cars for Kids suit Town agrees to pay half million to families of six killed, 22 injured BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. – The Selmer City Board has agreed to a settlement with the people who were hurt or the families of those who died in the Cars for Kids tragic accident.

Selmer’s Board of Aldermen agreed to pay $500,000 to those who had sued the city after the tragic accident that happened on June 16, 2007. The aldermen voted 5-0 to approve the settlement during a special called meeting on Tues-

day, Sept. 6. “We are just glad to have gotten this settlement agreed to and approved by both sides,” said Selmer Mayor David Robinson. Robinson said the money would be paid out of Selmer’s general fund. He hopes to have the payment completed by next week, following work by Selmer city attorney Terry Abernathy.

The payment from the city will be split between the various people who sued Selmer following the accident that killed six people and injured 22 others. Lawyers representing the victims had negotiated the settlement through a judicial mediation process with the city. The lawyers and the city agreed to the $500,000 settlement during a hearing at the

MRHC adds complimentary valet parking visitors BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Magnolia Regional Health Center is making things simpler. For its patients. Site work will begin Friday as the hospital hopes to alleviate a problem area of parking. “Our biggest feedback is that parking is not as good as it should be,” said Vice President of Heart and Cancer Centers Mark Studdard. “The project

simplifies things for patients.” MRHC is set to begin the 16-month project on Friday with the building phase not getting under way until January. Plans also call for some realignment of hospital departments in the future. “The reason we are doing this is to move the entrance of the hospital to the southern side,” said Studdard. “This way patients will have one central

location for everything.” Under the plan, the emergency room and radiology department would move to the southern side or expansion side of the hospital. “Those changes are a long way down the road,” said Studdard. “For several weeks the only thing to effect patients will be parking,” added Director of Marketing Annie Rhoades. The parking construc-

tion will see some variations to the way things are accustomed to being. Starting Friday, the hospital will offer a free valet service for visitors. “You can pull right up to the front of the hospital and we will park you,” said the vice president. The valet service is available only from 6 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please see PARKING | 2

Corinth could see more municipal court fines collected as the result of an agreement inked Tuesday. The Board of Aldermen approved entering a contract with Judicial Correction Services to help manage payment of fines to the city. Marcus Fomby, representing the business, said the service collects money that is owed for misdemeanor fines. JCS would only deal with those who cannot afford to pay all of their fine up front. Fomby said 70 percent of the funds collected each month will go to the city. “We also go back to collect on delinquent fines from anyone who in the past may have fallen through the cracks,” said Fomby. “We will use our resources to contact those persons and get them in and get them paying.” Fomby said JCS typically sets up a small local office wherever it provides services. Mayor Tommy Irwin said the municipal court has a substantial amount of outstanding fines, and the service will help bring in some of that money. In other business: ■ The board accepted an Iuka firm’s bid to install five storm shelters for use by city employees. P&G Contract Services was the lowest of three bidders at $96,975. The project is funded by a grant through the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency. ■ Building Inspector Philip Verdung informed the board that the Slugburger Cafe has been given a 30-day notice to pave its parking area or cease operations. ■ Donna Wright appeared before the board to request approval to operate an in-home daycare at 1501 North Parkway. Her request was previously denied by the planning commission/board of adjustment. The property is zoned R-1, which does not allow in-home businesses. The board took no action on the request. ■ The board approved a setback variance to allow an expansion of Pioneer Machinery on South Tate. ■ The board adjudicated property at 608 Wenasoga for cleanup and dismissed action on 1517 Allen Street.

Students take tour through body parts to learn about health BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Some Alcorn County students continued their education on Wednesday. Away from school. Around 500 first and second graders toured the Mississippi Body Walk Exhibit at the Mississippi Extension Service where they gained healthy knowledge about staying active. “This is a great experience that makes learning fun,” said Alcorn Central Elementary second grade teacher Helen Gillentine. “Children need to learn how to fight heart disease and diabetes.” The students took a trip through the brain and stomach among other body parts. They did a little workout following the tour and

concluded the event with a healthy snack “The whole purpose is to become healthier,” said extension nutrition educator Marea Wilson. “We can’t do enough to promote healthy habits.” Wilson works with students in the county one day a week. “We are grateful and excited about having a chance to be here,” said Gillentine. “What they learn today reinforces what we have been teaching.” High school students from the Alcorn Career and Tech Center served as presenters during the exhibit. “This is a great leadership opportunity for them,” said the center’s Teacher Academy instructor Please see BODY | 2

Animal shelter gives update to Board of Aldermen BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The new group in charge of the animal shelter presented a report Tuesday on its first month of operations along with a budget proposal for fiscal 2012. Charlotte Doehner, representing the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter, told the Board of Aldermen the shelter took in 96 dogs and 81 cats during the month of August.

Seven animals were adopted and 76 were euthanized for illness or biting. As of Sept. 1, the animal inventory was 102. During the first couple of weeks of operation under the new board, the shelter only took in animals picked up by animal control officers but is now accepting others. Income for the month included $286 for donations, $382 in drop-off fees and $390

for adoptions. Combined with funding from the local governments, income totaled $8,876. Expenses such as cleaning supplies and utilities totaled $1,876. The new group has presented budget requests to Corinth, Farmington and Alcorn County. “We are requesting the same amount of funding as provided in 2011 from each for 2012,” said Doeh-

ner. “However, we reduced the budget that was proposed to you by the other group by $90,000, and we are also agreeing to absorb the electric bill, which is approximately $12,000, which we hope will be a good savings for the city. We have also picked up the water bill from Farmington.” Numerous volunteers assisted in getting the facility ready to move for-

ward. “The facility is clean and we are maintaining a healthy environment, which I think was a concern for a lot of people,” said Doehner. The facility has been inspected by the health department. Looking ahead, she said the organization wants to continue improvements to the old building and set up a procedure room so that

veterinary procedures may be done in-house, reducing expenses. The group also wants to rework the runs to increase capacity, complete the new building by spring, find ways to communicate the need for spaying and neutering, and work with other shelters and rescue groups to increase adoptions. The new website for the shelter is alcornpets.com.

Nan Nethery. “They are having a great time teaching the kids.” Health Science student Natasha Cheery couldn’t agree more. “I had fun with the kids and learned some things at the same time,” said Cherry. The health exhibit — sponsored locally by Magnolia Regional Health Center and Coca-Cola — is a 40by-40 enclosed walkthrough representing the body. Students receive a take-home book and acquire knowledge that will help them make changes for a healthier lifestyle. “When they take that book home it helps educate parents also,” said Wilson. Body Walk continues today with over 480 students touring. “They have had as much fun here than they would have going to the park,” said Gillentine. “One of my kids said ‘this was the best class trip he had been on.’”

Deadline time Popular newspaper Reader’s Choice ballots need to be turned in by today BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Today is the deadline for Daily Corinthian readers to submit their ballots for the 2011 Readers’ Choice Winners. The contest is a fun way to give the newspaper’s readers a chance to vote for their favorites in wide range of categories — including best cup of coffee, best seafood or allaround restaurant, best pastor, best mattress store, best used car dealer and many, many more. The many “Best Of” winners are organized under headings including restaurants, automotive, people, home, services, sports/recreation, shopping and medical. The Daily Corinthian will honor this year’s winners with a special section in the

Sept. 25 edition containing stories on the winners as well as advertisements in which the winners thank their customers for voting them local favorites. Participants also have the opportunity to win $50. The winning entry ballot will be drawn by a Daily Corinthian representative on Friday, Sept. 9. The winner will be notified by telephone and will have 7 days from the date of the drawing to reply and claim the prize. The Readers’ Choice has become an important annual event for local business-owners, including Abe Whitfield, owner and operator of Abe’s Grill — a business that has racked up many Readers’ Choice designations over the years. “We’ve been here for 38 years and it means a lot to us,

it really does,” said Whitfield. “We’re able to use that as an advertising agent for us, too, because we have it on our signs and our menus that we’ve been voted first place.” When people want to know “What’s good?”, Whitfield said he tells them about the items on the menu that have won Readers’ Choice. The honor is also an incentive to keep up the good work, Whitfield said. “We enjoy cooking good food and the award makes us work harder to give people better food and service at a reasonable price — and maybe get some more customers!” said the legendary local restauranteur. Ballots will be accepted at the Daily Corinthian office at 1607 South Harper Road through the end of the business day today.

“We will still have plenty of self parking available, but visitors might not be able to park as close as they want,” said Studdard. “The valet service will make their stay a lot

nicer.” The parking upgrades mean employees will be shuttled to the hospital. A shuttle service will transport employees from two lots off campus to work. “The shuttle service is for employees only,”

said Rhoades. “We are telling employees to arrive 15 minutes early for the service,” added Studdard. Magnolia currently has 992 spots for parking. The hospital is set to gain 78 spots once the project is complete.

Mississippi hay will relieve Texas farmers BY ERNEST HERNDON McComb Enterprise-Journal

MCCOMB — It’s a classic scene: a tractor loading bales of hay onto a flatbed trailer. Only these days that trailer is likely to belong to an 18-wheeler, as local farmers ship their hay to drought-plagued Texas. On a recent morning, driver Mike Spiers of Inlaws & Outlaws Trucking of Tylertown cinched the tie-down straps on 38 round bales of hay in Buddy Dupuy’s field on Mississippi Highway 24 west of McComb. “This is my 20th load,” said Spiers, who’s been hauling a load a day to Kilgore, Texas. “Every evening (when) I get unloaded and start back this way there must be 40, 50 trucks, from gooseneck trailers to 18-wheelers, hauling hay to Texas.” Spiers’ load was cut and baled by Derwood Brady, Chris Ham and Warren Terrell. At three bales per acre, Spiers’ truck was toting the yield of nearly 13 acres. Dupuy said his hayselling partner, Steve Brady, was contacted by a man in Kilgore who needed hay. Dupuy said he heard reports that some Texans were having to buy bad hay at inflated prices. “We’re selling them hay on the same prices we charge locally,” Dupuy said, who grows

Bermuda, bahia and Argentina bahia grasses. “We’ve got some nice hay fields,” he said. “We’re running, golly, every day, and by the time we get one cut, the back field is ready to make a rerun. We’re looking at trying to get three to four cuttings this year.” Although he’s shipping plenty to Texas, “we’re going to make sure we have enough hay for local folks,” Dupuy said. Amite County Agent Richard Hay said word about the Texas shortage started spreading in late July and early August via e-mails, newsletters, Facebook, websites and meetings. Much of Texas hasn’t received rain in two or three months, which coupled with intense heat has savaged the hay crop there. Southwest Mississippi farmers stepped up to the plate, selling hay at the regular rate with the Texas residents footing the freight costs, Hay said. A bale sells for $25 to $30. Shipping adds an estimated $50 to $75 per bale, depending on distance. “The 4 by 5 (foot) bales are the ones that they really like because they stack on the trailers really nice. There’s no overhang,” Hay said. “Thank goodness we’ve got it to send them, but it’s just a

drop in the bucket. It’s a pretty dire and desperate situation, but we’re doing what we can. We’re shipping them a lot of hay, I can tell you that.” Mississippi landowners have had their own problems producing hay this year. “There is a hay shortage, but we seemed to get a little reprieve with July because we did get a little bit of rain, which allowed us to cut hay in August,” Hay said. Inlaws & Outlaws Trucking Co. owner Danny Lea said by cell phone from Marshall, Texas, “I’ve got people waiting in line for me to bring the hay to them. There’s that big a shortage.” He hauled milk for 32 years and has always been involved in some aspect of farming. Now all of his flatbeds are taking hay to Texas. “The place is brown. It’s so dry it’s busting open,” he said. “I talked to a guy who said it’s been 92 days since he’s had a drop of rain at his farm.” Lea said he sees trucks from Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, even Georgia hauling hay. The Louisiana highway department has loosened its restrictions on load width to accommodate them. “It looks like ants because there’s so many loads of hay going across,” Lea said.

Hay said the sight of 18-wheelers loaded with hay is unusual in southwest Mississippi. “We don’t move hay around here on 18 wheelers,” Hay said. “When you see an 18-wheeler loaded with hay and every two bales has a strap on it, that hay’s going on a long ride. “It’s very uncommon for us to be shipping hay like this, but I’m glad we’ve got it to do it. Farmers take care of farmers.” When farmer Earl Gay Edwards of the Thompson community heard about the hay shortage, he wanted to help. “I said, ‘Well, I got some extra hay I can get. I got mine — if we get an ordinary winter, I’ve got enough,”’ Edwards said. He didn’t want to go through a hay broker — a middle man who makes a percentage on a sale — so he called a friend in Mount Pleasant, Texas, who said his son-in-law needed hay. “I cut Monday. We took and loaded this morning,” Edwards said. He sold the hay for $30 a bale, same price he gets locally. The Texas farmer pays trucking costs. One load of hay was all Edwards had to spare. “If I had it, I would send as many as I could cut and bale,” he said.

Delta brings jet service back to Tupelo Associated Press

TUPELO, Miss. — Delta has brought a new fleet of planes to provide service from Tupelo to Memphis. The 50-seat regional jets are replacing the Saab twin turbo prop

that seated only 35 people. Delta expects the jet to save more money with regional flights like those from Tupelo along with maintenance costs. Delta provides 15 flights per week from

Tupelo to Memphis and will continue commercial flights from Tupelo through at least July of 2012. Delta had provided jet service between Tupelo and Atlanta from June 2005 to January 2008,

but dropped the flight, blaming escalating fuel prices and a reduction in its domestic operations. Tupelo Regional Executive Director Josh Abramson said the last Saab for Tupelo flew out Thursday.

Dollywood adding $20 million coaster for 2012 Associated Press

PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. — Dollywood theme park officials say the $20 million they’re spending on a new roller coaster is the largest single investment at the attraction in the Smoky Mountains foothills. Construction has begun on the new ride, called Wild Eagle, and it is scheduled for completion in March 2012.

The coaster will be a steel wing design with cantilevered seats that are four across in trains that hold 28 people, according to The Mountain Press. “It’s a new ride configuration that really allows you to feel the sensation of being in flight,” Dollywood spokesman Pete Owens said. The first drop will be

135 feet and the coaster will go through four inversions during its 2-minute, 22-second run. The track will be more than 3,000 feet long and the ride will reach 61 miles per hour. Entertainer Dolly Parton, who grew up in Sevier County where the park bearing her name is located, said she’s excited. “I’m just thrilled that

Dollywood’s Wild Eagle is the only place in the entire country where folks can get their feathers ruffled on a coaster like this!” Parton said in a news release Wild Eagle was designed by Bolliger & Mobillard of Switzerland. Dollywood said it will be only the second of its kind in the world and the first in the U.S.

After I grasped the fundamentals of craps, as Jaybird called it, he spotted me a handful of change and let me join in. “If you win, repay me first, and keep the rest,” he said. “If you lose, repay me from the allowance you get for doing chores.” To win, Jaybird said I must encourage the dice, so I learned the gambler’s jargon . . . terms such as, “natchul.” This meant that the dice turned up the same amount as the previous roll by landing with identical numbers on each die, e.g., if the first roll was four (three plus one), a natural – natchul – would be two plus two. Other encouraging phrases were, “Come back, dice” (meaning, turn up the same two times in a row); “Four (fo’) – Little Joe from Kokomo”; “Five – “Little Phoebe”; “Six – Jimmy Hicks fum de Sticks”; “Seven – up pop de devil”; “Eight, skate, donate” or “Eighter from Decatur”; “Nine – Nina Ross on a roan hoss”; 10 – “Rake dat big pot in”; and my favorite, “’pologize dice,” used when a player regains the dice, having rolled craps – two (snake eyes), three (acey-deucey), or 12 (boxcars) – his last turn. Emulating Jaybird, I kissed the dice on my first roll, bounced them off the wall, and shouted, “Seven come ’leven.” The dice obeyed, and I raked in the pot – all coins, since Jaybird made the house rules, and no bills could be anted. For a while, I just kept on rolling and controlling them bones. This is so easy, I thought . . . I will never earn my living sweating in hot cotton fields; I’ll just be a big-time gambler. Everyone anted again, and with shameless audacity, I bounced the dice off the wall once more. “Boxcars!” Jay shouted. “You done crapped out, boy.” That was the beginning of another life lesson the old black man, a master teacher, was planting indelibly in my brain. He taught me how not to indulge in certain types of sin by encouraging me to indulge in those sins. One day when we were fishing, he lit up a smoke – a strong, unfiltered Camel. All of 13 years old, I said, “Jay, I’m a full-grown man now and I want to smoke like you.” Without saying a word, he passed me the Camels and a kitchen match. I lit up, inhaled deeply on the first puff like Jaybird, turned purple, gagged, wheezed and felt woozy the rest of the day. I never smoked again. Like cigarettes, Jaybird knew gambling can be addictive, and he made sure I never became a gambler by encouraging me to gamble. Before long, I was handing over all of my hard-earned weekly allowance to him. Content just to watch, I quit gambling. Never again would I say to those evil, spotted little blocks, “’pologize, dice.” (Oxford resident Jimmy Reed, jimmycecilreedjr@gmail.com, is a newspaper columnist, author and college teacher.

Playing a dangerous game with labor unions STARKVILLE — News of the sounding of political alarms by leading state Democrats topped the news after the long Labor Day holiday weekend. For state Democrats and for labor unions alike, rhetoric from a Labor Day picnic hosted by a Jackson union local chapter could signal the beginning of an ominous political dynamic. Press reports that leading Democrats – including new party executive director Rickey Cole and state Sen. David Blount, D-Jackson – predicted hard time for the state’s public employees if Republicans take control of the Mississippi House of Representatives. Cole, a seasoned political veteran, was quoted as saying: “This is not an important election, this is the last election. It’s the last damn chance. It’s the last train leaving. “If we don’t win the (state) House of Representatives, if we don’t win a majority in the Senate, if we don’t elect Johnny DuPree governor, then in six weeks there won’t be a State Personnel Board.

You’ll have to promise to be a good Republican to get a job.” After the turmoil in Sid other states Salter over public employee Columnist benefits, one has to question the wisdom of couching the outcome of legislative elections as determining the future of state retirement benefits and public employee benefits. There are Republicans – Gov. Haley Barbour among them – who have long called for a review of what he has called “unsustainable” benefit increases to the state’s Public Employees Retirement System by lawmakers. In August, Barbour created a 12-member Public Employees’ Retirement System Study Commission to analyze the program’s structure and recommend changes. The 12-member commission will provide a comprehensive report to Barbour and the Legislature by Nov. 15.

“The current funding path for Mississippi’s pension system relies too heavily on increased contributions from taxpayers,” Barbour said. “Large benefit increases adopted in the 1990s and early 2000s, coupled with the impact of the economic downturn, have created a financially unsustainable system. The commission will take a hard look at the tough decisions that need to be implemented to ensure the long-term solvency of the system.” That announcement stirred concern among PERS’ recipients. State retirement benefits have long been the “third rail” of state politics much as Social Security and Medicare has been the “third rail” of national politics. But as has been see at the national level, state governments are increasingly being forced to examine their retirement systems But Democrats who seek to make such reviews a litmus test of support for state public unions likely do so at their own political peril. The Mississippi As-

sociation of Educators and the Mississippi Alliance of State Employees are the two unions most vulnerable to anti-public employee sentiments. The Mississippi Legislature has historically been slow to tamper with PERS benefits or employee participation in the system. Barbour’s commission aside, that’s still likely to be true. Why? Because changing the system for public employees shines light on changing the system for legislators, too. That’s true unless public unions turn the debate – as it was in Wisconsin – into a highly partisan “us against them” political standoff. Unlike those in Wisconsin, Mississippi public workers have never had collective bargaining rights in a right-to-work state. State Republicans leaders likely pray that Cole continues the partisan rhetoric regarding public workers and organized labor. (Sid Salter is a syndicated columnist.

Steve Jobs not quite Henry Ford Steve Jobs has the rare privilege of attending his own funeral. Who among us hasn’t wanted to do that – to see who’s there, who’s not; who’s crying and who seems perfectly calm, even bored? He’s not dead, of course, but ever since he stepped down as chief executive of Apple last month, people have treated him as though he were. Virtual obituaries, eulogies and testimonials are flowing unendingly. And I’m sure he’s pleased with the reviews. They’re very, very good. A visionary on the level of Henry Ford, they say. The greatest entrepreneur of his time. A business genius. And so he was, I mean is. More or less. He didn’t invent the computer or the cell phone or the Internet. But he did bring them to the fingertips of the average person and make them a virtual necessity. He was a hard-driving executive who hired brilliant engineers and drove them relentlessly to do things they didn’t realize they could do, all with the consumer in mind. Above all, he brought an elegant sense of aesthetics to an industry that was, up

to then, innocent of it. Just walking into an Apple store makes you feel cleaner. Donald Once, havbeen Kaul ing ousted as Other Words Apple’s leader, he bought Pixar. He developed it into the most innovative and best of the animated film companies and made himself another fortune in the bargain. He owns nearly 300 patents, but his main skill was (there I go again – is) as a kind of editor. He worked with his teams to craft and shape their inventions to correspond with his signature style and unique vision. It can be said he transformed his industry and in doing so changed the way we live. Yet, even with all that, he was no Henry Ford. Ford was born during the Civil War in 1863 into a world of horses and wagons, oil lamps and outdoor plumbing. By the time he died in 1947, just after World War II, it was in a world largely of his making, dotted with giant factories and crisscrossed with paved highways lined with cars ca-

pable of traveling 100 milesan-hour. It was a world of exploding suburban growth, with an interstate highway system just over the horizon and the decline of our great industrial cities just about to begin, victims of their (and his) success. Ford didn’t invent the automobile any more than Jobs the computer. Yet, like Jobs, he brought his remarkable machine within reach of the average man and eventually made it all but a necessity of life. In doing so he changed where we live, where we shop, where we work, and the very air we breathe. Parenthetically, he also did a lot for teenage sex. Under Jobs’ leadership, Apple offshored most of its factory jobs to contractors employing hundreds of thousands of poorly paid Chinese workers. Ford, however, championed the first auto assembly line, making his cars affordable for the middle class. Then he instituted the $5-aday wage (worth about $110 in today’s dollars), allowing his workers to join that class. It’s difficult to overestimate how shocking that was to the nation in 1927.

The Wall Street Journal (no more far-seeing then than now) wrote Ford had sown the seeds of the destruction of our society. Instead, the best workers flocked to his plant and he got richer, as did the rest of society. Not all of the changes wrought by these two great men worked out for the better, unfortunately. It can be said, if somewhat uncharitably, that Steve Jobs created gadgets that robbed our youth of their attention span, while Ford created an economic environment that, while it fueled the greatest prosperity the world had ever known, released forces that now threaten to destroy the planet through climate change. Ford was a crank genius, a virulent anti-Semite with fascistic tendencies. He was undeniably a greater force for both good and evil than Jobs has been. Still, for a guy who dropped out of college after one semester, Jobs has done all right for himself. There aren’t many Henry Fords in our history. Jobs came closer than almost anyone else.

Robbins Street News So good to be back with all you good readers. It’s been a blessing I’m able to do things I’m allowed to do daily. I can only thank God for his love and kindness. Lionel Jumper, you posted something that really made me think. Mainly how people carry themselves, and being yourself. Quote! “I’m a contender, not a pretender.” I thought about that. People, which one are you? Happy birthday to all who have one in the month of September and hope you’re blessed to see many more: John Barnett, Blake Barnett, Skylard Crenshaw, Dee Agnew, Des Harris, and DaDa Edmond. Youth Praise was done by Skylar Crenshaw reading from the book of Proverbs. He’s the son of Arron and Earnestine Crenshaw. Corinth Warriors (my stomping grounds) won over Booneville. Both teams did a great job. Dee Agnew was in the spotlight with his awesome football skills. Biggersville Lions won over Union County with a comeback that was very much awesome. I’ve seen some of the Biggersville Lions and some of those young guys just love to play some football. I’m still having nerve attacks with my son Jerwarski getting his driver’s

permit. He drove me to Booneville and did a great job. I’m still seeking drivers to ride with him if they like. It never dawned on me that a lot of people don’t recognize the name “Jerwarski” too often. Years ago Pamela Dilworth couldn’t pronounce his name, so she started calling him “Jack” and most of his classmates calls him “Jaws.” So people I’ve made it easy for you all to know who I’m talking about. I can’t image what nickname the late Rush Williams would have given him. Much, much prayers are needed for all our sick and shut-ins and a special prayer for Smith Simmons who’s in Tupelo Hospital. Mr. Simmons is one of my main readers, so I hope some of the family will read my news to him. During all of her sickness Mrs. Catherine Payne was able to be with her church family (Synagogue) to help celebrate our 117th church anniversary. So good to see her. We have some workmen who’s doing a great job keeping the Rienzi community looking good. We may not come outside and let you know, but we are grateful. Sis. Mary Shumpert, I’ve been seeing some nice vehicles in your driveway, Do

Kathy Marshall Columnist I need to get nose trouble and stop by? I have a friend in Corinth, Charlotte Roberts and her granddaughter Little Tuddy is the best of best. Little Tuddy is a smart young girl working it out in her senior year. Even though she still talks like a baby I see a great lawyer in her. I was asked a question once before and I didn’t have a good answer. The question was “When do you give up on someone?” At first I said never. After awhile it hit me. Life goes on, and there’s no promises how long you have to live it, so there’s a simple fix for that. Don’t give up on someone, just pray and move on. (What do you think?) I would give a million for all to see that cheese grin on Virginia (Eurk) Barnett’s face showing off photos of her grandson Dee in flash shots of his football game. So good to know Sis. Lou-

ise Barnett is back home, and it’s a blessing her daughter Shalonda is there to help care for her daily. I’ve been down that path caring for my father and mother. It was a hard job, but to this day I have no regrets and I sleep very well at night just knowing I was there for her. Children, keep in mind who cared for you as you grew up and don’t hesitate to want to take care of your parents when that day comes. You will be blessed. The One Stop Service Station located in Biggersville is now serving the Cajun chicken with Cajun rice and beans. Need to try it out. Priscilla Ragin, I’ve been asking about you for weeks. Need to give me a call. Don’t make me go jack on you. I do hope all is well with you. Arron Hans, you’re in our prayers and hope you got a good doctor’s report from your doctor in Memphis. Mack Hans granddaughter, Arnanda Murphury, was baptized this past Sunday in Florence, Ala. This young child has accepted Christ in her life at an early age and her mother Amelia is very happy for her. I haven’t heard from my friends Mr. and Mrs. Bud Cox in awhile. Hope all is well with the both of you and you’re in my prayers. Hope all had a safe Labor Day and a good time to top it off. So until next time all have a blessed day.

Sunflower News The Lord is my rock and my fortress (Psalm 18:2). I hope everyone had a happy and safe Labor Day holiday. For myself, another week of vacation is about to end. Because of the holiday there were early deadlines this week, so there is no church news. Okay readers, I saw this on the news ... Booneville Boys and Girls Club needs help! They need funds to open. This is a great “cause” because of the children, so let’s come together and do what needs to be done. Here’s something I read and would like to share with you. A great analogy of God: A man went to the barber shop for a haircut and trim. As the barber began to work, they talked about many different things and various subjects. They touched on the subject of God. The barber said, “I don’t believe God exists.” The customer asked why he thought that. “Well you just have to go out in the streets to realize that God doesn’t exist. Tell me, if God exists would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither pain nor suffering. I can’t imagine a loving God would allow all these things.” The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he did not want to argue. The barber finished the job and the customer left. Down the street he saw a man that had long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. The customer went back to the shop and said to the barber, “You know what? Barbers do not exist.” “How can you say that,” asked the surprised barber. “I am here. I am a barber, and I

just worked on you!” “No!” the customer exclaimed, “barbers do not exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair, untrimmed beards like that man outside.” “Ah, but barbers do exist,” said the barber. “What happens is, people do not come to me.” “Exactly,” said the customer ... “that’s the point! God, too, does exist! What happens is people don’t go to Him and do not look for Him. That’s why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world.” Moral: My God is real. A day filled with prayer is a day lived in awareness of God’s love; trusting the love of God to heal, prosper and bless every person. Let’s pray for Thomas and Sarah Miller, Hattie Anderson, Smith Simmons, Johnny and Genise Crayton, Billy Basden, Louise Betts, Jackie Burress, the Hans, Rev. V.L.

Briefly Shopper arrested with lobsters in shorts D’IBERVILLE (AP) — A 35-year-old Mississippi man has been is accused of attempting to walk out of a D’Iberville grocery store without paying for food items that he had stuffed into his pockets. Two of the items were alive. It’s a good thing the rubber bands didn’t break. Police Chief Wayne Payne said when officers arrived at the Winn Dixie, Nathan Mark Hardy had two bags of jumbo shrimp in his pants and two live lobsters in his front pockets. “He was wearing cargotype shorts,” Payne said. “In all my years in law enforcement, I’ve seen people shoplift steaks and all kinds of items, but never live lobster,” Payne said. “It’s a good thing the rubber bands didn’t break.” Payne said officers took photos of the evidence. Police also recovered a pork loin that Hardy allegedly tried to stuff in his pants but threw a grocery store employees instead as he tried to run. Payne says Hardy, of Biloxi, fell while running away and was arrested at the scene.

Store clerk dies; teen faces charge JACKSON (AP) — Bond has been denied a 16-year-old accused of shooting at a south Jackson convenience store clerk over $3 worth of unpaid gas. The teenager had an initial appearance Wednesday in Jackson Municipal Court. Hinds County Coroner Sharon Grisham-Stewart says the clerk died Tuesday at the University of Mississippi Medical Center as a result of his injuries. Grisham-Stewart says 49-year-old Dilip Patel of Madison was shot once in the head Monday. The teen is being held at the Hinds County Detention Center in Raymond.

New West Nile cases brings total to 23 JACKSON (AP) — Five newly reported cases of West Nile virus bring the total in Mississippi this year to 23. On Wednesday, the state Health Department says the new cases were

two from Pearl River County and one each from Madison, Tate and Washington counties. The two newly reported Pearl River County cases became ill sometime in late July through early August but were just recently determined to be positive. The other three cases became ill in mid-August. So far this year, cases have been confirmed in Coahoma, Forrest (3), Hinds (4), Jones (3), Madison, Pearl River (6), and one case each in: Rankin, Tallahatchie, Tate, Wayne, and Washington counties. Two deaths have been confirmed in Jones and Pearl River counties. In 2010, Mississippi had eight West Nile virus cases and no deaths.

Anderson wins chief election in Choctaw PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Phyliss J. Anderson has unseated incumbent Beasley Denson to win the race for Choctaw Tribal Chief In complete, but unofficial returns from Tuesday’s election, Anderson polled 2,011 votes, or 56 percent, to win over Denson, who had 1,523 votes, and Shirley Martin Berg who tallied 63 votes. Choctaw Election Committee Chairman Berdie John says 241 absentee ballots would be counted Wednesday. The count was scheduled for 1 p.m. at tribal headquarters in Neshoba County. It was the second election for chief in the past few months. The Choctaw Tribal Council tossed out results of the first election amid complaints about voting irregularities. Denson broke a tie to throw out the election results and start from scratch. Ten candidates challenged Denson on June 14, and that election ended in a July 15 run-off between Denson and Anderson. Anderson, 50, received 55 percent of the vote in the runoff and was declared the winner before the results were tossed out. Denson, 61, was elected in 2007, defeating longtime chief Phillip Martin. Martin died in 2010.

Man owes $115K for grant theft GULFPORT (AP) — A Gulfport man has agreed to repay a homeowner

assistance grant of more than $115,000 in a plea agreement on a charge of theft of government funds. The Sun Herald reports Gerald W. Haydel pleaded guilty Tuesday, admitting a grant he received after Hurricane Katrina was for a rental property he owned but it was not his primary residence. Haydel’s brother, Michael D. Haydel, indicted in the same case, pleaded guilty to a related misdemeanor Tuesday. A federal indictment filed in March charged the brothers with felony charges of theft, mail fraud and false statements regarding Gerald Haydel’s grant to rebuild a home in Gulfport. Both men entered their pleas before U.S. District Judge Sul Ozerden.

Woman to serve 1 year in burn case CANTON (AP) — A Canton mom will serve one year in prison for hot water burns her then-4year-old daughter suffered last fall. The Clarion-Ledger reports 25-year-old Michelle Moore avoided trial Sept. 19 in Madison County Circuit Court by pleading guilty Tuesday to one count of failure to provide medical care. Judge William Chapman sentenced Moore to five years, but suspended four. Moore has been out on bond since November. She was taken into custody following the plea and will be on probation for five years upon release. On Oct. 19, 2010, authorities say the girl was burned on both legs after running into a bucket of scalding hot water in Moore’s home. Canton police said, though the child was hurt Oct. 19, they did not receive a call until two days later.

Biloxi museum asks city for $356K BILOXI (AP) — The fate of the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art for now rests with the Biloxi City Council.

MSU textiles professor receives her 3rd Fulbright BY STEVEN NALLEY Starkville Daily News

STARKVILLE — There was a time when Phyllis Miller did not knit. Miller, a professor of apparel, textiles and merchandising at Mississippi State University, said it was not until her second Fulbright scholarship took her to India that she began to knit, and she hasn’t stopped since. About half a decade later, Miller has three Editor’s Choice Awards from Knitter’s Magazine to her name and a Best of Show award from Ravelry’s Stitches South Conference. “Living and working in another country is a wonderful experience,” Miller said. “It changes the way you view the world and everyone in it by giving you an understanding of other lifestyles and perspectives. It also gives you a better understanding of America’s place in the world and the opportunity to view ourselves as others see us. It has also given me the time to explore and enhance my life both professionally and personally.” Now, Miller has received the third Fulbright scholarship of her career, a lecturing and research appointment that will take her to the island Republic of Mauritius to help establish a fashion design institute. Michael Newman, director of the MSU School

Newman said Miller has returned from previous Fulbright studies with new and exciting cultural slants on fashion. “One of our students might win a design contest with some element learned from Dr. Miller based on something that she learned in Mauritius,” Newman said. “She might learn about a particular fabric or weave or technique that we haven’t been using in our classes. It’s hard to say what exactly might happen, but it is always a good idea to expand the outlook and perspective of our students.” Miller is one of 800 receiving a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Fellowship “This award brings prestige to the apparel, textiles and merchandising program, MSU and to the state,” Miller said. “There are good things happening in Mississippi, and the Fulbright program lets the world know about it.” Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Miller said she spent her childhood developing an interest not only in fashion, but also in international culture and travel. She began sewing when she was 4, and she said living near Embassy Row exposed her to interna-

Mississippi budget hearings set for Sept. 19-22 in Jackson BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Top lawmakers meet later this month to start planning Mississippi’s budget — a process they’ll hand off to new legislators who take office in January. The Joint Legislative Budget Committee announced Wednesday that it will hold public hearings Sept. 19-22 at the Woolfolk state office building, near the Capitol in downtown Jackson. Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant is the Republican nominee for governor and current chairman of the 14-member committee.

He said he wanted to cancel the budget hearings this fall because several committee members — including him — won’t return next year. Democratic House Speaker Billy McCoy of Rienzi, who’s not seeking re-election, said the fall budget hearings are an obligation and they give the public a chance to hear how tax dollars might be spent on everything from public health to prisons to education. “We have a responsibility to fulfill our duty until the last hour we’re there,” McCoy told The Associated Press Wednesday. The fall hearings pro-

I have now visited 40 countries and territories, many of them more than once.” Miller ran her own design and costume business while studying fashion at Wayne State University in Detroit. During graduate school at Michigan State University, she paid for international travel through freelance writing for several national magazines. She even hosted her own Michigan TV series, “Phyllis Miller — In the Looking Glass,” offering fashion, housing and lifestyle advice for those with disabilities. She said she was 20 when she discovered her true love: teaching. “Teaching allows me to continuously learn new things and to share them with my students,” Miller said. “It’s never boring. My teaching methods are very handson. I demonstrate, and students immediately create something. After giving them a firm foundation, I encourage them experiment and challenge themselves to meet their goals.”

duce a set of recommendations that can either be followed or ignored by the new legislators. All 122 House members and 52 senators will get to vote on details of a budget next spring, if they remain on schedule during their four-month session from January through early May. A new governor will get to sign or veto the spending plan. The state’s 2013 fiscal year begins July 1. Bryant faces Democrat Johnny DuPree, independent Will Oatis and possibly a Reform Party candidate in the Nov. 8l election. Republican Gov. Haley Barbour couldn’t seek a third term this year. “I have made it no secret that I believe we need to adopt a more efficient budgeting system than what is currently used,” Bryant said in a news release Wednesday. “I will continue to push for a performancebased budgeting system in this next legislative session and put an end to this age-old process.” In 2010 and this year, Bryant allies in the Senate introduced bills that would have changed the budget process. The bills, which did not pass, would’ve required more legislative scrutiny of agencies’ performance. Critics said there’s nothing in the current process that blocks such scrutiny. At least four of the 14 Joint Budget Committee members won’t be in the Legislature next term. Besides Bryant and McCoy, they are Senate President Pro Tempore Billy Hewes, R-Gulfport, who ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor; and Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Doug Davis, R-Hernando, who was defeated in a re-election primary last month.

Briefly Colorado dog celebrated for ears BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Harbor has over two feet of ears. Does that make him a 6-foot dog? Probably not. But this week, the black-and-tan coonhound from Boulder, Colo., gets the 2012 Guinness World Records title for “longest ears on a living dog.” His left ear is 12.25 inches long and his right is 13.5 inches long. Owner Jennifer Wert says when her 8-year-old was a puppy, he would trip on his ears and roll down stairs. These days, Wert says people often stop them to ask questions, take photos or tug on his ears. Tigger, a bloodhound from Illinois who died in 2009, still holds the record for longest ears ever. One was 13.5 inches long, the other 13.75 inches long. Coonhounds use their ears to help with scent.

UMass welcomes students with stir-fry AMHERST, Mass. (AP) — It wasn’t just a record, it was delicious and nutritious. Staff and students at the University of Massachusetts celebrated the start of the new semester this week by making the world’s largest stir-fry. Using a custom-built, 14-foot-frying pan, the 4,010-pound meal included 800 pounds of chicken, 500 pounds of onions, 400 pounds of carrots, 300 pounds of broccoli as well as peppers, green beans, bok choy, peanuts, basil and garlic. It was cooked in 50 pounds of canola oil. Ken Toong, executive director of Auxiliary Enterprises at UMass-Amherst, says the purpose was to stress sustainability and promoting healthy eating as many of the vegetables were grown at a student-run farm. A Guinness Book of World Records representative was on hand to certify the record. The previous record was 2,319 pounds.

Firefighters have yet to control wildfire BASTROP, Texas (AP) — One of the most destructive wildfires in Texas history is slowing down thanks in part to calming winds, but stretched-thin firefighting crews have yet to gain any control of the blaze that is plowing across rain-starved grasslands now littered with hundreds of charred homes. Raging with zero containment for days, the wind-fueled fire has destroyed more than 600 homes and blackened about 45 square miles in and around Bastrop, a city near Austin. An elite search team on Wednesday will begin looking for more possible victims of the fire, which has killed two people and forced thousands to evacuate. Crews finally got a reprieve Tuesday from winds pushed in by Tropical Storm Lee that whipped the blaze into an inferno over the weekend. Increased humidity was moving in overnight, and officials were expected to report some containment in the morning, Texas Forest Service spokesman John Nichols said. “Tonight should be a good

night, tomorrow should be a good day — we hope,” Nichols said late Tuesday. “The reason why it hasn’t been able to be contained is the wind. We still have a lot of active fire on the line, but today was the first day we had very light wind.” The blaze is the most catastrophic of the more than 180 fires that have erupted in the past week across Texas, marking one of the most devastating wildfire outbreaks in state history. The fires have destroyed more than 1,000 homes, caused four deaths and pulled the state’s firefighting ranks to the limit.

Undecided, Palin rails against Obama MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Sarah Palin left open the possibility of a presidential bid this week, while encouraging tea party activists to unite against President Obama. And the former Alaska governor praised Republican presidential candidates for working harder to appeal to the tea party movement. “Now we’re seeing more and more folks realize the strength of this grassroots movement and they’re wanting to be involved,” she told hundreds of activists at a Tea Party Express rally in the Granite State’s largest city. “I say, ‘Right on, better late than never,’ for some of these campaigns, especially.” She didn’t name any names, but former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney is among those courting tea party groups this weekend. But Palin’s New Hampshire appearance comes amid rising frustration — and indifference — among Granite State Republicans and tea party activists over her hazy intentions. She has drawn headlines, dominated cable news coverage and raised supporters’ hopes through several recent visits to early voting states. And as she did Monday, she has consistently left open the possibility she would seek the presidency. A New Hampshire tea party leader couldn’t hold back his frustration Sunday night at another rally hosted by the Tea Party Express.

No troop decisions as Iraq pull out begins WASHINGTON (AP) — The scheduled withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq is on track, a Pentagon official said Wednesday, but the Obama administration has yet to decide how many troops might stay there on a revised mission to help train Iraqi forces. “The drawdown has begun,” Navy Capt. John Kirby, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters. He referred to the departure from Iraq this week of about 700 members of a headquarters unit. Their departure marks the start of the withdrawal of the final 46,000 U.S. troops there. Yet to be decided is the size and mission of any staybehind contingent. The Iraqi government said last month that it is interested in negotiating the terms for a U.S. military group to continue training Iraqi forces beyond Dec. 31, when the last U.S. forces are to have departed under a 2008 agreement.

America needs jobs, but how? BY TOM RAUM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — America’s sickly economy can be healed with jobs, jobs and more jobs. On that, everyone agrees. Figuring out how to produce them is what is stumping everyone. Other than letting time take its course, Washington lacks a clear answer on how to create permanent new jobs on a national scale. Forecasters suggest it will take 20 million new jobs over the next 10 years just to repair recession damage and to keep pace with adult population growth. Recent streams of bleak employment and economic data drive home the difficulty of the challenge. As President Barack Obama prepares to tackle jobs issues in a speech to Congress on Thursday, deep divisions persist among economic policymakers on just how to spur job growth. The speech comes as national polls show a clear majority of those surveyed say they disapprove of the way Obama is handling the economy. Lots of schemes have been tried or floated —

first under Republican President George W. Bush and now under Democrat Obama. More than $2 trillion has been plowed into stimulus spending, loans and bailouts to banks, auto companies and other corporations, tax cuts for individuals and businesses, mortgage refinancing assistance and aid to state and local governments. But so far, the needle has barely moved on unemployment, which has stayed near or above a frightening recession-level 9 percent for 29 months. It was 9.1 percent in August, same as the month before, with zero net job gains during the month. “Neither side can make a definitive case that they really know what they’re doing,” said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former director of the Congressional Budget Office and top economic adviser to 2008 GOP presidential nominee Sen. John McCain. Holtz-Eakin said that while different theories abound, economists have yet to satisfactorily explain business cycles, predict the duration of recessions or explain why

some nations’ economies grow while others do not. “It’s complicated by the fact that we don’t live in a textbook world and that, in fact, the government’s capacity to do stuff is not infinitely wide.” Obama favors a mix of new short-term deficit spending on tax breaks and jobs programs, including ones for roads, bridges and other infrastructure, to keep the economy from falling back into a recession, combined with longerterm steps to trim ballooning deficits. “He will make the claim that these are measures that have historically had bipartisan support, can be acted on very quickly by Congress and can have a very quick and positive impact on the economy and employment,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday. Carney said that Obama’s set of proposals for both short-term job creation and longer-term deficit reduction are “things that Americans across the board are demanding.” The need for infrastructure jobs is one of the few

areas where there’s anything approaching consensus. The concept has won the support not only of Obama, but such rival groups as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the AFL-CIO. The differences come in how to pay for it. The administration is running out of ammunition to invigorate the economy before the November 2012 presidential election, especially with a Congress that seems geared to block any Obama measures that increase government spending. The Federal Reserve also has few options left, having kept interest rates at near zero for more than two years. Republicans, who now control the House, overwhelmingly oppose further stimulus measures and are emphasizing deep spending cuts and eliminating regulations they claim discourage business expansion and job creation. Catering to the tea party movement, these Republicans say the private sector, not the government, is the engine of growth and should be allowed to function without government meddling.

911 tapes from shooting reveal scene BY SANDRA CHEREB Associated Press

CARSON CITY, Nev. — Dozens of 911 calls made from in and around a Nevada IHOP where a deadly shooting rampage took place detail a frantic scene, as witnesses described the gunman and dispatchers tried to determine if more than one person was involved. Callers described victims gunned down inside the Carson City restaurant on tapes released Wednesday. “There’s a shooting in the IHOP! Get there right now!” yelled caller Ralph Swagler, owner of Local’s BBQ next door, as shots rang out in the background. “Now he’s coming back out. He’s shooting people in the parking lot! He’s shooting at us now!” A female caller instructed the dispatcher to bring “several” ambulances and said: “There’s a guy shooting everyone!” Tuesday’s attack by lone gunman Eduardo Sencion, aka Eduardo Perez Gonzalez, left four dead and seven injured.

CHS stays perfect in Region 1 play BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth moved into the driver’s seat in Class 1, Region 1 with a sweep of Amory on Tuesday. The Lady Warriors ran their overall winning streak to four and improved to 5-0 in league play, topping the Lady Panthers 25-14, 25-22 and 25-12.

The Lady Warriors have a pair of games with Pontotoc and a home date with Aberdeen remaining on their conference schedule. Annalee Hendrick paced the club in kills on Tuesday with seven. Erin Frazier, who added six kills to go along with a team-high two blocks and five digs, recorded 6 of the Lady Warriors’ 19 aces. Alexis Willis led the club again in assists with 14. Sadie Johnson had the club’s other seven helpers. Corinth travels to Pontotoc today.

BIGGERSVILLE — The Biggersville Lions (1-1) will host the Houlka Wildcats (0-2) Friday night at 7:30 p.m. in a Division 1-1A showdown. “They have a really good defense. They are 0-2, but they’ve played two really good 2A teams in Hamilton and Okolona,” said Lions Head Coach Ronnie Lawson. “They run the ball a lot.” Biggersville is coming off a 32-30 win at Union County last Friday. The team is a joint effort of kids from East Union, West Union, Ingomar and Myrtle. “Our backs and receivers need to

Running back Darious Carroll had 13 carries for 101 yards and linebacker Marcus Washington had 15 tackles, five for a loss.

“Our backs and receivers need to block a little better this week against Houlka. Our offensive line is doing a good job though.” Ronnie Lawson Lions’ head coach Biggersville has scored 53 points this year, but yielded 54. Houlka has scored only 14 points and has had 68 points scored against them.

On a windy and chilly Tuesday afternoon, Corinth shortstop Stennett Smith hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the first inning to give the Lady Warriors a lead they never relinquished. The Lady Warriors blanked Walnut 10-0 in five innings giving up only two hits to the Lady Wildcats in the game. “I’m proud that we got off to a better start today. In the past week we seemed to let the other team strike first,” said Corinth head coach Janna Labarreare. “We finally came out more aggressive today.” Corinth, which improved to 11-3 on the season, got multiple hits from Portia Patterson, Erin Frazier, and Rebekah Williams. Patterson and Frazier both had doubles. Elizabeth Williams improved to 9-3 on the season. Walnut’s Hailey Wilbanks took the loss. The only highlights on the day for the Lady Wildcats came when right-center fielder Ashley Pankey threw out Haley Christian at the plate. Catcher Libby Meeks applied the tag following the fly out. The second highlight for Walnut came on a diving catch by Angelica Hernandez in left field to rob a base hit. Corinth opens division play at the SportsPlex on Thursday against Itawamba at 5 p.m. ___

USM’s left tackle Alcorn Central gets back to basics wants to ‘step up’ BY SEAN SMITH ssmith@dailycorinthian.com

GLEN — The Alcorn Central Golden Bears (1-2) will host the Mooreville Troopers (2-1) Friday night at 7:30 p.m. The Bears are coming off a 40-6 loss at home to Walnut, while Mooreville won big at Hatley 46-12.. Mooreville is averaging 34 points per game. The Troopers are also averaging 252 passing yards and 167 rushing yards per contest. Mooreville’s only loss came in week one to Amory 42-28. The following week, Mooreville beat Saltillo at home 39-33. “This is the best team we have faced this year. They spread the ball out and can both run and throw it very well,” said first-year AC

Central Notebook Head Coach Jim McCay. “Our goal is too keep the ball out of their offenses hands because they can score so quick. On offense will have to block 6-2, 255-pound defensive tackle Quadzing Rodgers.” Alcorn Central beat Biggersville 24-21 in week one and lost at Tishomingo County 38-14 in week two. “We are getting back to the basics fundamentally on both sides of the ball. In the Walnut game, we shot ourselves in the slot on offense with bad snaps and miscues,” said McCay. “Our defense played well I thought, we just kept putting them in tight spots all night.”

HATTIESBURG — Southern Miss left tackle Lamar Holmes will have his hands full this Saturday, and he knows it. The 6-foot-6, 333-pound behemoth will go head-tohead with the player that many consider the top defensive player in Conference USA — Marshall defensive end Vinny Curry. Curry is considered a highly-touted NFL prospect as a 6-foot-4, 263 athlete with good speed off the edge. “This game is very big for me,” Holmes said. “Any time you go against somebody who NFL scouts feel may be a first- our secondround prospect, I want to step up. They will be there to watch him and I want to show them what I can do and what we can do as a

whole O-line. I want to show what we can do together.” While Holmes mostly served as the No. 2 man at left tackle last season behind Darius Barnes, Holmes did get a shot at Curry for three series in USM’s 41-16 win last year in Hattiesburg. “He got me,” Holmes said. “But it was a busted assignment by the back. I won’t blame it on the back. I’ll blame it on myself. “I can’t say nothing bad about (Curry). He’s a great athlete, great player. He’s very physical and he’s good with his hands.” USM head coach Larry Fedora and the rest of the coaching staff were pleased with what they got out of Holmes in fall camp and he likely had the best perforPlease see HOLMES | 9

Manning won’t play; streak ends Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — The numbers tell it all. Exactly 227 consecutive starts. Eleven playoff appearances. Eleven double-digit winning seasons. Eight division crowns. Two AFC titles. One Super Bowl championship. Peyton Manning has quarterbacked the Indianapolis Colts every Sunday since Sept. 6, 1998. He won’t this weekend. Manning will be in street clothes when the team opens the season at Houston, still recovering from neck surgery while Kerry Collins starts in his place. “It’s going to be a little different without Peyton,� coach Jim Caldwell said. “He’s one of a kind. When you look across our league, most teams have had quarterbacks that have missed

Wrestling CWA Championship wrestling is coming to the Tippah County Coliseum on Saturday, Oct. 8. Bell time will be 8 p.m. Superstar wrestlers Buff “The Stuff� Bagwell, “Dogface Gremlin� Rick Steiner, “The Black Machismo� Jay Lethal, Carlito, “Dangerous� Doug Gilbert and special guest “The Legendary� Jerry Jarrett will be there.

time. Ours has just been highly unusual.� The streak is the second longest in history among NFL quarterbacks behind only Brett Favre, whose 297-game run — 321 including the postseason — ended last season just before he called it a career. Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo was 10 years old when Manning’s streak began. Veteran center Jeff Saturday has never snapped the ball to another quarterback to start a game during his pro career. In fact, no player on Indy’s roster has participated in a regularseason or playoff game for the Colts without No. 18 at the controls. Giants quarterback Eli Manning, Peyton’s younger brother, now holds the longest active streak for a quarterback with 110 starts, including postseason play. He said he had not talked to his brother for a few weeks.

“I know he was dealing with a lot,� the younger Manning said. “I don’t know how he is feeling and what’s going on. I know he wants to be out there. He gave his all and he will give his all to be back out there.� The Colts had hoped the 35-year-old Manning would recover while developing a backup plan. Collins, who was brought out of retirement just two weeks ago to run the Colts’ pass-heavy offense, has been preparing as though he would start. “I expect to run the offense, bottom line,� he said. “Make plays when they’re there, be smart with the ball, make good reads, good decisions, get us into the right plays when the situation calls for it. I’m going into this week thinking I’m going to run the offense as best I can.� Defensive end Dwight Freeney said the Colts still

expect to play at a championship level. “Obviously, we’re not used to not having him (Manning) out there,� Freeney said. “He’s a great player. There are 52 other guys on the team, and one guy does not win the game.� The Texans don’t expect an easy game because Manning won’t play. They are familiar with Collins, who played for AFC South rival Tennessee last year. “I think he’s a hell of a player,� Texans coach Gary Kubiak said of Collins. “He’s been successful against us. My focus right now is on our team. We’ve got to get ourselves ready to play.� Manning had been listed as doubtful for the game, but losing him for any time is a shock to Indy fans, not to mention his teammates. Not only has the four-time NFL MVP never missed a start, he’s rarely missed practice.

Crossroads

Thursday, September 8, 2011

Issues of identity are serious Health Center auxiliary awards matter for adoptees, families scholarships for 2011-12 year DEAR ABBY: May I weigh in on the letter from “Noah’s Real Dad in New York� (June 27), whose adult adopted son wants to reclaim his original last name? I am an adult adoptee who searched for and found my birth family. I also joined a support group that was formed to support the adoption triad. Research has shown that male adoptees struggle with their identity more than females Dear do. After all, in our Abby patriarchal society it is the male surAbigail name that most van Buren often does not get changed in marriage. Women are accustomed to the fact that they will most likely change their name. This family needs to do some reading on the subject, There are many resources out there. A family counselor who isn’t well-educated about adoption issues will not be helpful. Unless you walk in an adoptee’s shoes you cannot judge their actions. After all, the adoption decision is made without the consent of the child. We also resent being treated like children after we are adults. Noah is a 34-year-old adult able to make his own choices and decisions. Noah is fortunate that he knows his birth father and didn’t have to search a bureaucratic maze to obtain any information. Laws have been passed in several, not all, states allowing adoptees to get important information about their birth families that is necessary for taking care of ourselves and our own children. — DEBBIE IN FLORIDA DEAR DEBBIE: Your letter reflects the strong sentiments of many adoptees and their families who wrote to me expressing their disappointment in my reply to Noah’s adoptive father. Here are some of their responses: DEAR ABBY: I am an adoptive parent in an open adoption with our children’s birth families, and I vehemently disagree with what you

wrote. My children have two mothers and two fathers. My husband and I are the parents who are raising them, but that slip of paper signed by a judge does not erase their family of origin. It shouldn’t. They have an adoptive family and a biological one and should be able to have a relationship with both. My children also have two names. The names they were given at birth and the names my husband and I gave them when we adopted them as infants. They will always know about these two sets of names. When they are older, if they wish to be called by their birth name, we will have to respect that. It does not mean they love us less or that we are not their parents. What it does mean is that adoption is more complicated than most people realize, and as our children grow into adults, we need to give them the space and freedom to discover for themselves who they are. — AN ADOPTIVE MOTHER IN ILLINOIS DEAR ABBY: I agree with you 100 percent! How horrible, disrespectful and mean-spirited of that 34-year-old son. I understand why he is interested in the family history of his biological father, but he could record that history for the future without changing his current surname. Doesn’t Noah realize his biological father was an adult who made up his mind to give up his rights to his son, including the rights to his last name? If Noah doesn’t respect his adoptive father for giving him his last name, and if Noah is set on changing his surname, it would be more respectful to take his mother’s maiden name as his surname. I hope Noah reconsiders the issue he’s creating, and at 34 he makes a wiser adult decision than his biological parent did. — PHYLLIS IN OHIO (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

Ferrell’s Home and Outdoor celebrates 40th anniversary From a humble beginning to a thriving business For the Daily Corinthian

Ferrell’s Home and Outdoor, Inc. of Corinth is celebrating its 40th anniversary this weekend. Ferrell’s is a local, family-owned and operated business that began its humble beginnings at 608 Wick Street. Chuck Ferrell was employed as a service technician with a local retail store and he had a desire to establish his own business. After seeking the Lord’s direction for several months, Ferrell left his job and began pursuing his dream of selling and servicing Whirpool appliances in Corinth. Chuck and his wife Sarah Ferrell made an unscheduled trip in July 1971 to McDonald Brothers in Memphis, Tenn. McDonald Brothers was the Whirpool Appliance distributor for the Memphis area. The Ferrell’s presented their idea of

“Many of those early customers are still loyal customers today.” Chuck Ferrell selling Whirlpool appliances in the Corinth area. The very next day, Whirpool Territory Manager Doyle Childress made a very special presenation. “He was at our home and he wrote up a $5,000 order,” recalled Chuck Ferrell. The Ferrell’s borrowed $80 from a friend to rent the building they wanted on Wick Street. The dream was now a reality. Wick Street was a thriving part of town at that time in 1971. According to Ferrell, every building was occupied and it was a great place to start a business. “Many of those early customers are still loyal customers today,” noted

Chuck and Sarah Ferrell, owners of Ferrell’s Home and Outdoor in Corinth, invite friends and customers to their 40th anniversary celebration with a reception from 3-5 p.m. Friday at their business. They want to commemorate 40 years of serving the Corinth and the Alcorn County area, as well as thank customers for their loyal support over the years.

Associated Press

DETROIT — Ford, Chrysler and the United Auto Workers remain far apart in labor talks with just a week left before their contracts expire, two people briefed on the talks said Wednesday. Negotiators for the two companies and the union have started serious talks on wages in the past few days, even though the union’s contracts with all three Detroit carmakers expire at 11:59 p.m. on Sept. 14, the people said. General Motors Co., on the other hand, has been talking pay with the union for about two weeks and is ahead of its crosstown rivals, said another person briefed on the talks. All three people asked not to be identified because the companies and union have agreed to keep negotiations private. Contracts between the UAW and Detroit’s automakers are widely followed because they set the wages for about 111,000 autoworkers nationwide. They also set the bar for wages at auto parts companies and other manufacturers.

This year’s talks are the first since Chrysler and GM accepted government aid and emerged from bankruptcy protection in 2009. So far, talks between the union and the companies have been amicable, despite little movement on wages with Chrysler Group LLC and Ford Motor Co., two of the people said. The lack of progress raises the possibility that the contracts could be extended beyond next week’s deadline. Union spokeswoman Michele Martin said talks with all three companies are making progress, but she declined to give details. Both sides must reach agreements and union members must vote on the deals before new contracts can take effect. UAW President Bob King has said he’d like to reach agreements with the companies before the contracts expire. But during the last round of contract talks in 2007, the union kept working under contract extensions until it reached deals with the companies in October and November.

Ferrell. Ferrell’s moved to U.S. Highway 72 East in November, 1976, a location which would remain their business home for 10 years. The Ferrell’s son, Randy Ferrell, joined the business during that time and electronics were added to the Ferrell’s lineup. As the business continued to grow, more space was needed. The Ferrell’s purchased property on Parkway and began construction on a 5,000-square-foot building in November, 1985. They moved into their new building in January, 1986 and the business continues to thrive today in the same location. Lawn and garden products were added to the

Ferrell’s inventory at that time. Three major additions have been added to the Parkway location over the years. Chuck and Sarah Ferrell are still presently enjoying the daily interaction with their customers. Brian Ferrell manages the daily operation of the business and the family tradition continues today as Brian is assisted by his wife, Lisa, and their two sons, Ben and Andrew. Today, Ferrell’s continues its 40-year tradition in selling major brand appliances, electronics, mattresses, lawn and garden products. As in the beginning, the promise remains, Ferrell’s services what they sell. From 3-5 p.m. Friday, Ferrell’s invites their loyal friends and customers to a reception commentorating 40 years serving Corinth and the Alcorn County area.

FAITH, WORKS AND SALVATION There are three schools of thought on faith and works. Some believe that one is saved by faith only. Others believe that one is saved by works. However, the Bible teaches there must be a combination of the two. How is it possible to reconcile these diverse positions? The Bible reveals that the relationship should be between faith and works. The Bible teaches that we cannot please God without faith. “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” (Heb 11:6). Those without faith will die in their sins. “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins” (John 8:24). The Bible also teaches that hearts are purified by faith. “And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith” (Acts 15:9). The Bible also reveals when faith is demonstrated by works. “Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works” (James 2:18). Abraham proved his faith when he offered his only son. “By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son” (Heb 11:17). Faith was demonstrated when they marched around the walls of Jericho for seven days. “By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days” (Heb 11:30). Faith is also perfected by works according to James 2:22. “Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect”? Paul also reveals that faith must work by love. “For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love” (Gal 5:6). All who believe and do not obey will be lost. “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven” (Matt 7:21). We prove our faith by obeying his commandments. “Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city” (Rev 22:14). “For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” (1 John 5:3).

Creators Syndicate

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It will be easy for you to think of others. You’ll be treated with the respect you deserve, largely because you are so respectful of everyone with whom you have dealings. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you look back on what you once thought was a huge problem, you can’t believe how complicated it seemed. Once a problem is solved, the solution seems so obvious. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Don’t be too timid to ask for help. The more you involve others in your process the more cooperation you will receive. By asking for help, you will give others the opportunity to do something they will later be proud of. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Keep your energy contained. Don’t let friends lead you off your path. Stay focused. Instead of doing a million different tasks and being busy, do one task a million times and be successful. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may find it challenging to stick to your schedule. Much of it just doesn’t sound appealing to you anymore. You crave new and exciting twists. Your association with a Gemini could provide just what you need. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are highly imaginative and will benefit from pursuing your artistic whims. Be careful not to seek a metaphysical explanation for a problem that could be solved easily through practical means. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will find inspiration as you withdraw from the mainstream and investigate new venues. You may do this via the Internet, though it will be more motivating to talk to people face to face and see an environment first hand. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are some things in your life that you haven’t thought to question until recently. Now you’re filled with questions, and you will find answers as you bring your quiet and luminous gaze to the moon. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You will be analyzing someone’s contributions and interactions with you. To you, it feels like the kindness this person shows is motivated by fundamentally selfish reasons, and you may very well be right. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Parenthood, friendship and romance are not normally classified as competitive events. However, today presents an interesting scenario. If it’s not a competition, you don’t know what is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What you consider to be trivial, someone else considers to be deeply profound and personal. You are aware of these differences in opinion and will tread carefully. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are even more resilient than usual and will shake off the troubles of yesterday and come bounding into brand-new troubles that are far more interesting, exciting and glamorous.
