Alcorn Central Spirit Homecoming week means five days of fun. It has been that and much more at Alcorn Central High School this week. Senior Will Shadburn (left) and Luke Price took part in Character/ College Day on Tuesday as the Bears get ready to celebrate homecoming on Friday. Shaburn showed he has plenty of heart while dressing up as the Tin Man while Price decided to go with old favorite Mickey Mouse. The Alcorn Central High School Football Festival and Talent Show will be held tonight outside the Weight Room beginning at 5:30 p.m. with the ACHS Talent Show followed by the presentation of the Homecoming Court during the Community-wide Pep Rally. The festival will conclude with the lighting of the Bonfire and the burning of the Royals. Bring a lawn chair and come out to support the team and school.
Members of the Corinth Democratic Executive Committee put their signatures on the official Democratic primary results Wednesday as attention turns to October’s general election ballot. After waiting five days in accordance with the new voter ID law, the committee added more than 30 affidavit ballots to last week’s machine and absentee vote totals. The primary had seven residents who did not bring valid identification when they voted. They were allowed to vote by affidavit and, of those, two returned later with valid ID and had their votes counted. With the remaining affidavits, Deputy Circuit Clerk Crystal Starling checked each voter’s information against the Statewide Elections Management System and then handed it over to the committee members to consider whether to accept or reject. For police chief, Ben Gann led the affidavits 21-13 for a final certified total of 1,265 (52 percent) for Ralph Dance and
1,156 for Gann. For alderman at large, Jennifer S. McCoy received 17 votes from the affidavit ballots, and incumbent Mike Hopkins received 15. The certified total is 1,469 (63 percent) for Hopkins and 866 for McCoy. Ward 4 incumbent J.C. Hill led the affidavits 7-3, giving him a certified total of 333 (55 percent) to Steve Hill’s 269. City Clerk Vickie Roach said absentee ballots for the Oct. 14 municipal general election are expected to become available either Friday or Monday. City Hall will open Saturday, Oct. 4, and Saturday, Oct. 11, from 8 a.m. to noon for absentee voting. The election will again be held in the fire truck bays on the west side of City Hall. Voters and poll workers seemed to like the location, she said. “To me, it flowed much better,” said Roach. The October ballot will have only two contested races — police chief and alderman at large — while candidates for the other offices will be unopposed.
Shirts honor soccer player BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Austin Digby had the heart of a warrior. Owen B. Whitehurst Memorial Golf Tournament founder Mike Whitehurst was looking for a way to honor the former Corinth High School soccer player. Whitehurst used proceeds from a bag toss during the 14th edition of the golf tournament along with other money raised during the event to have around 75 T-shirts made for the Warriors and Lady Warriors soccer teams. “This is a great way to honor Austin,” said Warrior Head Coach Gregg Parker as he and Lady Warriors mentor Cameron Glenn passed out shirts to players. “He did everything ever asked of him for the soccer program.” Digby died just 10 days fol-
lowing a tragic accident on Aug. 3 in the Oakland Baptist Church parking lot. “We were thinking of a way to contribute to the memory of Austin when the T-shirt idea came up,” said Whitehurst. “We thought this would be a positive way to honor him.” Around $150 from a bag toss during the tournament was collected from golfers who wanted to take a stroke off their score. Organizers also used proceeds from the overall event for the shirts. The shirts – designed by Whitehurst’s wife, Tracy, at Winner’s Circle – feature a soccer player with a Superman S on his chest kicking a soccer ball on the back. “Heart of a Warrior – In Memory of Austin Digby” is also part of the white shirt. CHS kicks off the soccer campaign in November.

Local block party called a success BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
The streets were alive with music and laughter last Saturday as hundreds turned out for the first Fillmore Street Block Party. With warm temperatures and fair skies, guests were given a true taste of Corinth through the sampling of local fares. Colorful booths and tents lined the street, giving the ambiance of an open-aired market. Faces were painted and stories told as young and old gathered for an afternoon of food and fun. Models walked the runway, sporting the styles of quaint boutiques and stylish shops. The success of the block party was evident as people continued to show up
and show out. “It was an excellent way to celebrate Corinth and we had a great response to it,” said Julia Smith, co-owner of Smith. restaurant. “Everyone had a good time and enjoyed the festivities. Grace Curtis and I had fun organizing it and look forward to planning another one.” Smith and Curtis wished to thank the local business owners and vendors for all their hard work and efforts to bring everything together. “We would also like to extend a special thank you to SMC for donating the port-a-potties,” she said. Marking the beginning of a new tradition, downtown Corinth is certain to host another block party in its future.

Today in History Today is Thursday, Sept. 25, the 268th day of 2014. There are 97 days left in the year. Â
Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 25, 1789, the first United States Congress adopted 12 amendments to the Constitution and sent them to the states for ratification. (Ten of the amendments became the Bill of Rights.)
On this date: In 1513, Spanish explorer Vasco Nunez de Balboa crossed the Isthmus of Panama and sighted the Pacific Ocean. In 1690, one of the earliest American newspapers, Publick Occurrences, published its first — and last — edition in Boston. In 1775, American Revolutionary War hero Ethan Allen was captured by the British as he led an attack on Montreal. (Allen was released by the British in 1778.) In 1904, a New York City police officer ordered a female automobile passenger on Fifth Avenue to stop smoking a cigarette. (A male companion was arrested and later fined $2 for “abusing� the officer.) In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson collapsed after a speech in Pueblo, Colorado, during a national speaking tour in support of the Treaty of Versailles. In 1957, nine black students who’d been forced to withdraw from Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas, because of unruly white crowds were escorted to class by members of the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division. In 1974, Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tommy John underwent an experimental graft reconstruction of the ulnar collateral ligament in the elbow of his throwing arm to repair a career-ending injury; the procedure, which proved successful, is now referred to as “Tommy John surgery.� In 1978, 144 people were killed when a Pacific Southwest Airlines Boeing 727 and a private plane collided over San Diego. In 1981, Sandra Day O’Connor was sworn in as the first female justice on the Supreme Court. In 1994, Russian President Boris Yeltsin began a five-day swing through the United States as he arrived in New York, hoping to encourage American investment in his country’s struggling economy.
Representative hosts business summit State Representative Tracy Arnold will host a Small Business Summit on Tuesday, Sept. 30 beginning at 3:30 p.m. at Grambo’s Grill and Pizzeria in Booneville. Arnold said it is one of his endeavors to connect small business owners with opportunities that are available through MDA. He also is interested in legislative ideas that will help the small business owners. Arnold represents all of Prentiss County and the Rienzi area in southern Alcorn County. Ron Aldridge, Mississippi State Director for National Federation of
Independent Business, will be the guest speaker. Aldridge is a native of Winona and a resident of Jackson. He is a third generation former state legislator, a lawyer, a tree farmer, former co-owner of a small retail bakery, a retired U.S. Army Reserve Major (Corps of Engineers) and is currently the State Director of NFIB for the past 21 years. Aldridge provides a pro-active voice for Mississippi’s small business owners with his unusual combination of understanding firsthand of what it takes to start and operate a small business and the impact and inner
workings of the legal and judicial system. NFIB took a lead role in successfully getting passed in 2004 the most comprehensive tort reform legislation in the nation. Aldridge continues to serve as State Treasurer and on the Executive Board of Mississippians for Economic Progress, which is the tort reform coalition of the business and medical communities that spearheaded this effort. NFIB has led the fight to protect free enterprise and also work on small business’ number one problems – health insurance costs, tax issues, other

Twentieth Century Club holds inaugural meeting The first meeting of the Twentieth Century Club was held in the home of Mrs. Clifford Kizer on Sept. 16. Mr. Colon McGee was welcomed as a guest. The twelve members enjoyed a dessert plate during the social hour. Mrs. Percy Boggan presided over the meeting
and turned the program over to Mrs. Colon McGee, who introduced her husband. Colon graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi. After he retired from the banking profession, he took up stained glass making. Mr. McGee discussed the beautiful stained glass
windows in the different churches of the area. He illustrated his message with beautiful pictures and the history of the windows. Churches included were First United Methodist and the Methodist Chapel, Waldron Street Christian Church, Foote Street Church of Christ, Episco-
pal Church and First Baptist Church. He explained that some windows are used to create a mood, while others tell a story. Mr. McGee showed different types of glass and the tools used in making stained glass pictures and other objects. He was open to questions after this interesting program.
Mrs. Boggan presided over the business meeting and Mrs. McGrath handed out the attractive yearbooks. The treasurer, Mrs. Eaton, reported a balance of $140.01. She collected the dues from the club members. After this, Mrs. Boggan adjourned the meeting.

Corinth, Miss.
Did McDaniel win by losing Senate race? JACKSON — It’s been nearly three months since Chris McDaniel lost the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Mississippi, and he still hasn’t conceded. Now, it’s worth considering whether McDanEmily iel, a state senator tea party Wagster favorite from Jones County, is Pettus pursuing a long-term political strategy of winning by losing. Capitol Dome Certified results show sixterm Sen. Thad Cochran defeated McDaniel by 7,667 votes in the June 24 primary runoff. McDaniel is enmeshed in a legal battle trying to overturn Cochran’s victory by claiming the runoff was tainted because Cochran reached out to voters who traditionally support Democrats. Mississippi doesn’t register voters by party, and McDaniel’s odds of success are slim, based on the substantial burden of proving his claim that the primary was so shoddily run that the results are invalid. McDaniel wants a judge to either declare him the victor or order a new runoff. Facebook and Twitter remain abuzz with McDaniel supporters urging him to “Fight, Chris, fight.” Some suggest his tea party supporters should break away from the Republican fold and form their own “McGOP.” McDaniel’s never-surrender attitude is clearly wearing thin among many Mississippians, even some who say they voted for him. He might have torpedoed his own political future by making himself look like a sore loser. On the other hand, McDaniel might be strengthening his political prospects by positioning himself as an advocate for conservatives who feel ignored by the Republican establishment. And that might provide momentum for McDaniel and his allies leading into 2015, when Mississippi elects a slate of statewide officials, from governor to agriculture commissioner. McDaniel was backed by millions of dollars from outside groups that consider Cochran insufficiently conservative. However, neither McDaniel nor any other tea party-supported challenger can reasonably expect to receive that level of out-of-state financial support for a state government election in Mississippi, where Republicans hold seven of eight statewide offices and a majority in both legislative chambers. The big spending happened in the U.S. Senate race because groups such as FreedomWorks and Club for Growth saw a chance to affect federal policy. Both backed McDaniel. McDaniel filed a lawsuit Aug. 14 challenging Cochran’s victory in the primary. Cochran’s attorneys argued McDaniel waited too long to file the lawsuit. They cited a Mississippi Supreme Court ruling from a 1959 election dispute which said state law specified a 20-day deadline for challenging results of a multicounty or statewide election. Judge Hollis McGehee dismissed the lawsuit Aug. 29, ruling McDaniel waited too long to file. McDaniel appealed McGehee’s ruling to the Mississippi Supreme Court, and justices will hear oral arguments from attorneys for McDaniel and Cochran’s on Oct. 2 — one month and two days before the Nov. 4 general election. Justices say they’ll handle the appeal quickly, but state law allows them to order a new party primary runoff even after the general election. There’s no legal requirement for a losing candidate to make a concession speech, either on election night or at any other time. The process moves relentlessly forward, driven by deadlines to certify party primary results and prepare for the general election. State officials have set a November Senate ballot that lists Cochran as the Republican nominee, former U.S. Rep. Travis Childers as the Democrat nominee and Shawn O’Hara as the Reform Party’s candidate. McDaniel is pushing the boundaries of the widely held belief that in politics, any kind of attention is better than no attention at all. But, here’s his victory: People are still talking about him, for better or worse. And they wouldn’t be doing that if he had conceded on election night or soon thereafter. (Daily Corinthian columnist Emily Wagster Pettus is a writer for the Associated Press based in Jackson.)
Prayer for today Heavenly Father, may I not confuse my life with rebellion, but through thy guidance find peace. Help me through the perplexities that may keep me from the quietness of to-day. Keep me in sight of the great plan of life, that I may grow steadfastly toward thee. Amen.

Kansas lays an egg WILSON, Kansas — I was not hunting for the World’s Largest Czech Egg when I tooled into this town of 800. I was hunting for lunch off of Interstate 70, preferably at someplace not owned by a chain. Made From Scratch in the heart of town was recommended by the post master. He was right. The homemade pie was delicious. The restaurant even sold Tshirts: “Another One Bites the Crust.” It was, however, the World’s Largest Czech Egg that I’ll remember. You have to drive right by it to get to the center of town and homemade vittles. Painted black, made of fiberglass, 20 feet tall and 15 feet in diameter, that egg will be hard to forget. Located in the Ed and LaVange Shiroky Park and next door to the sad carcass of a burned-out opera house, the big black egg was laid a couple of years ago to draw tourists. It was to be
Rheta Johnson Columnist
the centerpiece of an after-harvest festival held each year by Wilson, Kansas’ Czechoslovakian capital. So far, it’s drawing mostly com-
plaints. “The egg was white, but somebody wrote an obscenity on it,” a waitress at the Scratch place told me. The eventual plan is to stencil artistic designs and make it beautiful, the way regularsized Czech wooden eggs look. Meanwhile, it’s harder to deface a black surface. The World’s Largest Wren is in nearby Topeka. I didn’t go by to see it lest the trip become reminiscent of a National Lampoon Vacation movie. But Kansas news these days isn’t about Ripleysized birds and eggs. They are pretty much old hat.
(World’s Largest Cowboy Hat, by the way: Seattle.) The news is all about midterm politics and a gubernatorial election nobody saw coming. Incumbent, conservative Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is in trouble. He kept his last campaign promises so conscientiously that even some of his fellow Republicans are upset with his extreme tax cuts. His Democratic opponent is harvesting political hay. Brownback initially said the tax cuts were a Red State experiment and would be good for jobs and business. Even now, he insists his economic plan has worked, and that he’ll be cutting even more taxes if re-elected. The facts don’t match the rhetoric. Forbes magazine called his experiment to stimulate the state’s economy with mega tax cuts “fiscal snake oil.” In other words, it hasn’t worked. Kansas workers are making less than they were before the draconian
tax cuts. Job creation in the state is below the U.S. average. There’s more poverty. There was no trickle-down benefit anyone noticed. The extreme cuts have endangered education and social services, and Kansas legislators will be hardpressed to find the funds to keep the state ticking with a $300 million shortfall. People are all about paying lower taxes if schools keep teaching their children and roads remain free of potholes. When quality of life starts to diminish, they reconsider.

Do ‘real men’ hit women? It was the day I learned the difference between sympathy and empathy. The phone rang on my desk. It was a woman I had written about. Her husband had beaten her for years. She divorced him; she took him back; she remarried him. The beatings continued. She would leave, and he would go after her. When she fled to her mother’s house, he followed her and broke all the bones on the left side of her face. For that, he was arrested and convicted of battery. He was sentenced to 90 days, but got out in a week. She got some plastic surgery. He kept beating her, usually with his fists, sometimes with his shoes. They had two children. Sometimes when she fled with them, he would follow and beg for forgiveness. She would return with the kids. And he would beat her again. She had come to my office. She was young and soft-spoken. She had been a schoolteacher and now worked for a large firm. She was not stupid or weak. “Why did you stay with him?” I asked. “People are going to read this and wonder why you took him back after he beat you again and again.” “I felt,” she said, and then she paused. “I felt I was the only one who understood him. I felt I was the only one who could help him. I wanted the family to succeed. I wanted things to work.” She had grown up watch-

ing “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet” and “Father Knows Best.” Ozzie never Roger p u n c h e d Simon Harriet in the face. Jim Columnist never beat Margaret over the head with a shoe. She knew these shows were not real. She knew they were idealized versions of the American home. But that’s the version she wanted. And when she couldn’t get it, she felt shame. She felt guilt. In one respect, she had been lucky. She came to work so battered and bruised one day that her supervisor called the company’s lawyer, and they found her and her children a place to stay and explained her legal options. She was talking to me because she wanted to help other women. I was sympathetic. The empathy would come soon. She didn’t want her real name used, and I said that was OK, but I said her husband certainly would recognize himself in the story. She would take the risk, she said, and besides, her husband’s behavior had become so violent and erratic that he had been confined to a mental institution. I wrote the column. The day it appeared, the phone rang. It was the woman. Her husband had escaped from
the institution. He had been a weapons instructor in the military, had gone home and picked up his gun. “He’s coming either for you or me,” she said. When I hung up, I started getting these pangs in my stomach. It was the empathy starting. My phone buzzed almost immediately. It was the receptionist at my paper. She said there was a man who wanted to see me. Her voice was distressed. I told her to smile at the man, put down the phone and get inside the newsroom fast. She did. When she was inside my office, she described the guy to me. It was the husband. I called a friend at the police department. “Yeah, there’s a bulletin out on the guy,” he said. “Armed and dangerous. So don’t try to interview him or anything.” “I don’t want to interview him!” I yelled into the phone. “I want you to come and get him! Now! Fast!” The police came, but the guy had fled. Eventually, he went back to the mental institution. But for the rest of the day and quite a few days after, I asked myself what it must be like to live with such a person. I tried to imagine the terror of it. Battered women don’t have to imagine. They know. The events took place in ancient times: 1978. So I looked for today’s facts and figures.

finding that from 2003 to 2012, “domestic violence accounted for 21 percent of all violent victimizations” in America. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that nearly 3 in 10 women and 1 in 10 men have experienced rape, physical violence and/or stalking by a partner. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, 3.2 million women have experienced severe physical violence by an intimate partner. Statistically speaking, things have gotten better. Even though the current statistics are shocking, they used to be much worse. And domestic violence is now being taken seriously. When a pro football player recently was caught on video punching out his then fiancee, now his wife, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said: “The president is the father of two daughters. And like any American, he believes that domestic violence is contemptible and unacceptable in a civilized society. Hitting a woman is not something a real man does.” It is something too many not-real men still do, however. And as long as they keep doing it, you’ve got to wonder how “civilized” a society we really are.

Across the Nation Associated Press
Services for female veterans fall short WASHINGTON — The Veterans Affairs Department and other government agencies are not doing enough to help women who served in the military, even as their number is rising dramatically, according to a new report. The report, released Wednesday by the Disabled American Veterans, identified serious gender gaps in virtually every program serving veterans, including health care, job training, finance, housing, social issues and combatting sexual assault. The advocacy group’s report blamed most of the deficiencies on a disregard for the needs of female veterans, saying the VA and other agencies focus on “the 80 percent solution for men who dominate (veterans affairs) in both numbers and public consciousness.â€? A sharp increase in reporting of military sexual trauma is an illustration of problems that require “radical changeâ€? at the VA and throughout the military, the report says. “At a time when the number of women veterans is growing to unprecedented levels, our country is simply not doing enough to meet their health, social and economic needs,â€? said Joy Ilem, DAV’s deputy national legislative director. Female veterans “deserve equal respect, consideration and care as the men who served, yet the support systems are ill-equipped to meet the unique needs of the brave women who have defended our country,â€? she said. The DAV report closely tracks an Associated Press review in June that found serious shortcomings in how the VA cares for female veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, many of them of childbearing age. Â
Activists calling for new FDA chief WASHINGTON — Antiaddiction activists are calling for the Food and Drug Administration’s top official to step down, saying the agency’s policies have con-
tributed to a national epidemic of prescription painkiller abuse. In a letter released Wednesday, more than a dozen groups ask the Obama administration’s top health official to replace FDA Commissioner Dr. Margaret Hamburg, who has led the agency since 2009. The FDA has been under fire from public health advocates, politicians and law enforcement officials since last October, when it approved a powerful new painkiller called Zohydro against the recommendation of its own medical advisers. The new letter is the first formal call for new leadership at the FDA over the issue. “We are especially frustrated by the FDA’s continued approval of new, dangerous, highdose opioid analgesics that are fueling high rates of addiction and overdose deaths,â€? states the letter, which is addressed to Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell, who oversees the FDA and other health agencies. The groups signing the letter include Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing, a 900-member advocacy group that petitioned the FDA to drastically restrict opioid use. The FDA rejected that petition last year. A spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services said opioid abuse “is a serious issue and one that the secretary is focused on.â€? “Secretary Burwell appreciates hearing from stakeholders on the important issue of prescription opioid abuse, and looks forward to responding to their letter,â€? said Tait Sye, in a statement. Â
Sales of new homes soar in August WASHINGTON — U.S. sales of new homes surged in August, led by a wave of buying in the West and Northeast. The Commerce Department said Wednesday that newhome sales climbed 18 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 504,000. The report also revised up the July sales rate to 427,000 from 412,000. Newly constructed

homes sold at the fastest clip since May 2008. It’s a clear sign of improvement for a real estate market that has been muddled in recent months, as the rebound in sales following the housing bust began to slow. Sales of new homes are up 33 percent over the past 12 months. Median prices for new homes have risen nearly 8 percent during the same period to $275,600. “All is not perfect in the housing market but things are certainly better today than they were about one year ago,â€? said Dan Greenhaus, chief strategist at BTIG brokerage. In the West, August purchases of new homes soared 50 percent compared to the prior month. Off the sharp August increase, sales in the West have nearly doubled in the past 12 months. Between August and July, sales grew 29.2 percent in the Northeast. Buying increased 7.8 percent in the South and remained flat in the Midwest.  Â

American Queen coming to Greenville GREENVILLE — The American Queen riverboat is planning a test stop at Greenville the first week of November. Memphis, Tennesseebased American Queen Steamboat Co. announced in August that Greenville will be one of the steamboat’s five ports of call next year on cruises between New Orleans and Memphis. Greenville is replacing Helena, Arkansas. Mayor John Cox tells the Delta Democrat Times the Nov. 2 “test docking� will gauge local support for the cruises. November’s visit will be the American Queen’s first to Greenville. The company is working out the details for its 2015 itinerary. The American Queen, built in 1995, was refurbished in 2012. The American Queen has six decks and boasts 222 staterooms and suites, served by a crew of 172. It has a capacity for 432 passengers.
Mid-South Fair set to begin Friday
Accused dad won’t face death penalty
SOUTHAVEN — The kickoff of the 158th MidSouth Fair will not take place at noon on Friday as in years past. Instead, gates for the first day of the annual event will open at 4 p.m. Friday at the Landers Center in Southaven. The fair is entering its fifth year in Mississippi since relocating across the state line from Memphis in 2009. After a slow start since moving to DeSoto County, Michael Doyle, president of the Mid-South Fair board of directors, tells The Commercial Appeal fair goers seem to have now embraced the event. Last year, attendance was up nearly 20 percent, drawing 86,332 people during its 10-day run.
ATLANTA — A Georgia man accused of leaving his toddler son to die inside a hot car will not face the death penalty, a prosecutor said Wednesday. Cobb County District Attorney Vic Reynolds said in an emailed statement that he won’t seek the death penalty against Justin Ross Harris after reviewing the state’s death penalty statute and other factors. He declined to elaborate. Police have said the toddler was left in the vehicle for about seven hours on a day when temperatures in the Atlanta area reached at least into the high 80s. The medical examiner’s office has said the boy died of hyperthermia — essentially overheating — and called his death a homicide. Harris’ attorney Maddox Kilgore did not immediately return a call seeking comment. Harris faces multiple charges, including malice murder, felony murder and cruelty to children.
schools to get as much education as they can. Harris’ message: Avoid making the mistakes that he once made. He saluted students at Forest Hill High School and told them that going to school “isn’t just wasted hours but an investment in your future.� “There is no easy way; you have to work hard and to prepare yourself,� T.I said. The Clarion-Ledger reports Mayor Tony Yarber presented the key to the city to Harris and said the rapper would have more of an impact on young people in encouraging them to stay away from crime. During the key presentation on the steps of City Hall, T.I. said he was “flattered, honored and humbled by this gracious gesture� and acknowledged that not everyone would be happy with him getting the recognition. “I’m sure there’s been some adverse opinions about the choice to bless me with this honor,� he said. “I can’t really change everyone’s opinion. But I can change me,� he said to rousing applause.
Leflore County seeks regional jail GREENWOOD — Leflore County supervisors want a regional jail to locate at the former Delta Correctional Facility. The formerly privately run jail closed in January 2012 and had previously housed as many as 1,300 inmates. A portion of the facility has been used as the county jail. The Greenwood Commonwealth reports high utility bills and mounting maintenance needs have led county officials to
seek other tenants for the building. Supervisors also cited the desire to attract additional jobs to the county. Delta Correctional Facility employed 241 people at the time of its closure. The county has also been in discussions with Utah-based Management and Training Corp., a private prison operator, to turn over the facility to house federal inmates.
ACLU sues Scott County over inmates JACKSON — A Mississippi county has illegally held inmates in jail for as long as a year without appointing counsel or presenting cases to a grand jury, the American Civil Liberties Union argues in a lawsuit, and a law professor said Wednesday that something similar could be happening elsewhere in the state. The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in federal court in Jackson, Mississippi, against officials in Scott County on behalf of inmates Octavious Burks and Joshua Bassett. Telephone calls to District Attorney Mark Duncan and Sheriff Mike Lee from the Associated Press seeking comment were not immediately returned Wednesday. Court records show Burks has been in the Scott County Jail since Nov. 18, 2013, and Bassett since Jan. 16, 2014. Neither has been indicted. “We’re seeking to make Scott County’s justice system function for all its residents,� Brandon Buskey, staff attorney at the ACLU’s Criminal Law Reform Project, said.

Home violence a complex issue BY DAVID CRARY AP National Writer
For weeks, amid allegations involving several NFL players, domestic violence has been the focus of intense national attention. Does the turmoil reflect a worsening epidemic of domestic violence, or has the U.S. in fact made great strides to curtail it? The answer is complicated. On one hand, domestic violence committed by intimate partners — current or former spouses, boyfriends or girlfriends — has declined by more than 60 percent since the mid-1990s, according to Justice Department figures. Yet the dramatic decrease from 1995 through 2004 has largely stalled, with the numbers stabilizing at a level that appalls people in the prevention field. The latest federal figures for “serious” intimate partner violence — sexual assault or aggravated physical assault — showed 360,820 such incidents in 2013, or roughly 1,000 per day. Meanwhile, many organizations that serve the victims are struggling to meet rising demand, particularly in the past few weeks since a graphic video surfaced of suspended Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice knocking his future wife unconscious in a casino elevator. Shelters are turning away victims for lack of beds and staff; the National Domestic Violence Hotline could handle barely half of the 8,500 calls that came during the eight days after the Rice video appeared. “Statistically, are we improving?” asked the hotline’s president, Katie Ray-Jones. “From a service standpoint, it doesn’t feel like it.” The sharp decline in domestic violence began soon after the 1994 enactment of the federal Violence Against Women Act, which toughened penalties for offenders, expanded training for law enforcement and improved services for vic-
tims. However, that drop in domestic violence coincided with a comparable drop in virtually all types of violent crime. Janet Lauritsen, a criminology professor at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, said there’s been no authoritative research to gauge the role of the federal act in curtailing domestic violence. Kim Gandy, a former prosecutor who now heads the National Network to End Domestic Violence, said most law enforcement agencies have vastly improved their handling of domestic violence over the past 20 years, while public attitudes and understanding have lagged behind. She hopes awareness will increase as the NFL cases spark a national conversation on domestic violence that she described as unprecedented. “People who never talked about it before are talking about it now, saying it happened in my family,” Gandy said. “It’s an opportunity to begin removing the stigma from domestic violence, so victims will feel more free to tell their stories.” Clearly, there’s been a ripple effect. As debate arose over whether Rice’s fiancee, Janay Palmer, should have married him after being slugged, thousands of women took to Twitter, under the hashtags WhyIStayed and WhyILeft, to share their own stories reflecting the sometimes difficult choice of whether or not to leave an abusive partner. “I stayed because my pastor told me that God hates divorce. It didn’t cross my mind that God might hate abuse, too,” tweeted writer Beverly Gooden on Sept. 8 as she called on her followers to join her in breaking the silence. Even as awareness increases, there’s concern as to whether prevention and support programs have adequate resources to meet demand. In many cases, advocates say they don’t, due to a tightening of funding
from various levels of government and from charitable donors. In Indiana, for example, domestic-violence prevention advocates have mobilized in recent days to protest moves by the state government to cut or withhold hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding for their programs. Laura Berry, executive director of the Indiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence, said most shelters in the state were forced to lay off staff because of budget cuts last year and have struggled to meet a surge of demand since the NFL crisis erupted. At the two shelters in Indianapolis, about 10 people a day are being turned away due to lack of beds and staff, she said. “If an individual finally decides to take the step to get free of abuse, it’s unconscionable for us to say, ‘I’m sorry. Maybe we can take you in a week, or five weeks,’” Berry said. Another barometer: The National Domestic Violence Hotline said it received about 331,000 calls, texts or online contacts in 2013, but a further 77,000 calls went unanswered due to lack of staff. Two federal agencies have sought to gauge the national scope of domestic violence. A key document is the National Crime Victimization Survey, conducted annually by the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics, which collects information on crimes whether they’ve been reported to police or not. That’s important because, according to the bureau, only about 55 percent of domestic violence incidents are reported to the police. The latest survey tallied 748,000 instances of intimate partner violence in 2013, including about 360,000 classified as serious violence. By comparison, there were more than 1.7 million incidents of intimate partner violence in 1994.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also has conducted large-scale surveys on intimate partner violence. It’s 2011 survey, based on more than 12,700 interviews, estimated that 22 percent of women and 14 percent of men experienced severe physical violence by an intimate partner — including acts such as being hit with something hard, being kicked or beaten, or being burned on purpose — at some point in their lives. Andra Tharp, a health scientist in the Division of Violence Prevention at the CDC’s Injury Center, said variations and inconsistencies in the available national data make it hard to predict future trends. She said a key to further reductions is early intervention with adolescents to cut down on high school dating violence that often is a precursor to domestic violence as adults. “It’s important to start in middle school, before the dating, before the violence, and talk about building healthy relationships,” she said. Another much-needed step, said Kim Gandy, is for more star athletes to speak out on domestic violence. “Celebrity athletes hold so much sway,” she said. “They could make a huge difference in young male attitudes toward masculinity and violence.” The top administrator at the federal Office on Violence Against Women, Bea Hanson, cited the need for prevention efforts “that change social attitudes and break the cycle of violence before it begins.” She said her office also is working to ensure that support services meet the needs of a diverse range of victims, regardless of age, race and sexual orientation. There’s been heightened interest in such efforts amid reports of high domestic-violence rates among Native Americans and some parts of the gay, lesbian and transgender community.

Businesses to keep BP oil spill payouts BY JANET MCCONNAUGHEY Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — BP wants its money back — hundreds of millions of dollars of it — but a federal judge said Wednesday that the oil giant must keep its promises to the companies it compensated for losses they blamed on the 2010 Gulf oil spill. BP argued that a flawed funding formula enabled many businesses to overestimate spill-related claims, and some “weren’t warranted at all.” U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier agreed several weeks ago to change the compensation formula for any future payments, but he ruled Wednesday that a deal is a deal when it comes to money BP has already paid out. Under that deal, claimants agreed to drop their lawsuits, and BP agreed that no future court action could change their payments. The ruling thwarts BP’s latest attempt to control its soaring liability from the spill, which may be nearing $50 billion. “BP disagrees with today’s decision and will appeal it,” company spokesman Geoff Morrell said. “We asked the Court, as a matter of equity and fairness, to order the return of excessive payments.” Barbier said he would
rule later on the issue of compensation for cleanup workers whose chronic medical problems weren’t diagnosed until after the deal’s cutoff date of April 16, 2012. The settlement entitled cleanup workers with chronic conditions including rashes and breathing problems to receive up to $60,700 if the problems first surfaced within days of their cleanup work. Barbier ruled in July that, as BP contends, those payments can only go to people diagnosed before that date, and any plaintiffs diagnosed later must prove in court that their illness was linked to their spill work. Plaintiffs’ attorneys asked him to change his mind, arguing that the cutoff date would keep most of the affected workers from collecting. Many of these workers couldn’t afford to pay doctors right away, and neither patients nor doctors knew what medical tests were required before the settlement was signed, they argued. BP is still facing a financial nightmare from the nation’s worst oil disaster, which began with an explosion that tore open the oil company’s Macondo well on the floor of the Gulf of Mexico, destroying the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig and killing 11 workers.
ACLU files lawsuit against county over failure to indict inmates BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. Associated Press
JACKSON — A Mississippi county has illegally held inmates in jail for
as long as a year without appointing counsel or presenting cases to a grand jury, the American Civil Liberties Union
THE SIN OF LYING The attitude of people toward lying today indicates how the morals in our nation are on a downward spiral. Proverbs 14:34 reveals how a nation can be exalted or become a reproach, “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people”. Our moral condition in America is a result of getting away from the word of God. Lying is contrary to the nature of God because God cannot lie according to Titus 1:2, “In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;”. Hebrews 6:18 reveals that it is impossible for God to lie, “That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie,…”. Since God is holy, lying is contrary to God’s nature and should be contrary to the nature of those who claim to be Christians. “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;” (1 Peter 1:15). Lying is condemned in the scriptures. One of the ten commandments was, “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour (Exodus 20:16). Paul reveals that lying should not be a part of the Christian’s life, “Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour:” for we are members one of another” (Ephesians 4:25). “Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;” (Colossians 3:9). One of the many ways that people lie is by making promises and not keeping them. James 5:12 teaches that one should keep his/her promises, “…but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation”. Years ago, people’s word was their bond, but not anymore. We can be righteous and exalt God and our nation or we can be a reproach to both. The Bible not only teaches that lying is wrong, but reveals the fate of all liars, “…and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death” (Revelation 21:8).

argues in a lawsuit, and a law professor said Wednesday that something similar could be happening elsewhere in the state. The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in federal court in Jackson, Mississippi, against officials in Scott County on behalf of inmates Octavious Burks and Joshua Bassett. Telephone calls to District Attorney Mark Duncan and Sheriff Mike Lee from the Associated Press seeking
comment were not immediately returned Wednesday. Court records show Burks has been in the Scott County Jail since Nov. 18, 2013, and Bassett since Jan. 16, 2014.

news release. “The county must set reasonable limits on the amount of time someone can remain in jail without a lawyer and without charges. Scott County jail routinely holds people without giving them a lawyer and without formally charging them for months, with no end in sight.” Matt Steffey, a professor at the Mississippi College School of Law in Jackson, Mississippi, said Wednesday that the lawsuit reveals an inconsistency in a court system that has no public defender. “This is usually a problem when a defendant has no one to push their case to the attention of a judge,” he said. “Clients without lawyers find their cases move slower, they are less likely to get bail or bail is higher.” Steffey said many counties and court districts in Mississippi are without public defenders. “It creates a situation where a person languishes in jail without a lawyer. And in some places, there’s the lack of a mechanism for keeping track of those in jail.” The ACLU said Mississippi law does not limit the length of time a district attorney has to present a felony case to the grand jury for indictment, or how long a felony defendant may be held in jail without a valid indictment. The group argues an indigent defendant de-
tained on a felony charge could spend an indefinite amount of time in jail before indictment. The ACLU charges that because an initial appearance is a critical stage of criminal prosecution in Mississippi, defendants should be entitled to legal counsel under the U.S. Constitution. Burks is charged with attempted armed robbery, possession of a weapon by a felon, disorderly conduct and possession of paraphernalia. Burks’ bond is $30,000. The ACLU said since 2009, Burks has been jailed in Scott County on three separate charges without indictment or counsel. Bond for Bassett, charged with grand larceny and possession of methamphetamine, is $100,000. The ACLU argues other inmates are in similar situations in Scott County, jailed for months at a time because they couldn’t pay bail and were denied counsel and a grand jury hearing. In its lawsuit, the ACLU seeks release of prisoners who haven’t had an attorney appointed within one week after their initial court appearances and those who remain unindicted 21 days after their arrests. ACLU also wants the court to order the district attorney and sheriff to adopt policies and procedures to monitor unindicted felony cases.

Recalling what Jaybird said: ‘Hit’s de principle’ BY JIMMY REED Guest Columnist
My mentor and boyhood best friend, Jaybird, believed God watches how His children spend money. “The Lawd give us de knowhow to make a dollar,� he’d say. “Thass a gift; when we misuse dat gift by wasting money, hit’s lak tellin’ Him we don’t ’preciate de gift, which makes Him powerful mad, and He takes dat gift back.� The old black practiced what he preached. But not wasting money was only half of his equation; saving it was the other half. He not only made frequent contributions to his stash of cash, but also squeezed the last penny out of everything
he owned. Whenever I questioned his parsimonious ways, he’d always say, “Hit’s de principle, boy. Evuh time you use sumpin’, dat’s one less time you gwine use it.� A good example is how he got extra miles out of his old pickup. Unlike other folks who race right up to stop signs, Jaybird would coast so that he barely had to touch the pedal to stop, thereby saving the brake pads and gasoline. He used the windshield wipers sparingly, reminding me that every time they flopped was one less flop. To get the last mile out of tires, he crept slowly around curves so as to throw as little weight as possible on whichev-
er tire was on the outside of the curve. On the downside of hills, he’d coast and “let gravity buy de gas,� as he said. When he could park in a way that would let him leave without cycling the transmission through reverse, he did so. If I said going to all that trouble might save a penny or two, he’d reply, “Hit’s de principle.

He would have agreed with Sir Francis Bacon, who said, “If money is not your
servant, it will be your master.� My mentor taught me to watch every dollar and to get as much as possible out of all purchases. But as a teacher and a father, I’ve discovered that explaining to today’s young people how to be fiscally responsible is often an exercise in futility. Recently, one of my daughters looked disgustedly at a shirt I was wearing and said, “Shame on you, Dad, you wear that same old threadbare shirt every day.� It wasn’t the same shirt. A few years ago, I came across a clothing store’s going-out-of-business sale and bought eight work shirts for a rock-bottom price. Because they are all the same color, she mistakenly thinks I
am wearing the same shirt every time she sees me. I haven’t bothered to tell her otherwise. “It’s one thing to be frugal, Dad, but you’re downright miserly,� she said, while wearing a dress that probably cost as much as my entire wardrobe. I chuckled, and remembered what Jaybird taught me: “Hit’s de principle.� Oxford resident, Ole Miss alumnus, Army veteran, and retired Mississippi Delta cotton farmer Jimmy Reed (jimmycecilreedjr@gmail.com) is a newspaper columnist, author and college teacher.

Second annual Eaglefest soars for wildlife rehabilitation BY HENRY BAILEY The Commercial Appeal
EUDORA — Raising a raptor calls for a special “mom:� A loving heart and a killer instinct. “He’s doing well,� said Valery Smith. “Morgan’s just about ready for release,� she added as the founder and director of nonprofit, allvolunteer Mississippi Wildlife Rehabilitation eyed the year-old red-tail hawk on her acreage near Eudora in western DeSoto County. It’s a busy time for Smith, readying for the annual Eagle Fest on Saturday. Morgan, recovering from a fractured right wing since March, was robustly “bouncing� in his roomy cage of predatorproof, expanded metal with inner wooden slats that Smith says “help maintain good feather
condition.� The impressive avian enclosure, 14 feet high and 24 feet long, was built, appropriately, as an Eagle Scout service project of teen Dennis McDonald of Olive Branch. Morgan has “christened� the cage as its first raptor resident, said Smith, federally licensed to keep and rehab raptors. “He flies around and gets plenty of exercise, and he’s killing his food now. It’s taken about three months for me to ‘live-prey train’ him with mice.� Morgan’s expected flight departure is early October, back as a vital link in the wildlife chain, helping to keep crop-destroying rodent populations in check. Morgan takes his name from the Tallahatchie County property of actor
Morgan Freeman, where he was found thin and dehydrated by foreman Darryl Meal, and turned over to rehab volunteer Nancy Fachman. Morgan is one of some 600 ailing or orphaned birds, mammals and reptiles taken in so far this year by the rehab with the goal of release back to the wild. Smith and supporters hope a good turnout at Saturday’s second annual Eagle Fest fundraiser at Arkabutla Lake will boost the work and help build the long-sought Arkabutla Lake Wildlife Rehabilitation and Nature Center on the 154-acre ARK trails site on Mississippi Highway 304 east of Eudora. The event at the Dub Patton Recreation Area off Arkabutla Dam Road runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is free along with shuttle service, but
tax-deductible donations are welcome. Major sponsors are DeSoto County Greenways, Jim Keras Subaru of Memphis, Citizens National Bank and Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto; among the presenters at the pavilion will be the lake’s managers, the Corps of Engineers; Greenways and the rehab with a flock of “education birds� for the public to greet. Other scheduled exhibitors include the DeSoto Museum, Becky Collier of Alabama 4-H’s Raptor Trek program with two bald eagles, and Bob Tarter of the Natural History Education Company of the Mid-South with critters including a Eurasian eagle owl, the largest owl species in the world. Special treats are Smokey the Bear, a raffle for an Eagle Fest T-shirt signed by country music
star Keith Urban, and the “Eaglet 5Kid� obstacle course, where for a small fee youngsters tackle the course and get a prize at the end. Among food vendors will be the Fillin’ Station Grille and Parker’s Water Ice. Bring cameras and comfortable shoes; please leave domestic pets at home: “Dogs and cats don’t mix with wildlife,� says Eagle Fest coordinator Bonny Davis of Hernando. Morgan won’t be at Eagle Fest. “As a releasable bird, he’s a non-educational bird,� said Smith. But several rehab fowl, deemed non-releasable due to injury or other factors, are slated to be there: Zelda Moonshadow the barn owl; Spirit the Swainson’s hawk; one-eyed Klippie and Rufus, screech owls; and
Wind Dancer — Nyul-alSheesha’ in Navajo — an American kestrel and part of the falcon family. “And don’t forget grumpy Horton the great horned owl,� said Davis, rehab board president and a former Chamber of Commerce executive in North Carolina. For Davis, Eagle Fest is “exciting and it’s very eclectic — a rare combination of people and wildlife.� Last year, some 800 people attended, and Davis hopes to see that figure doubled on Saturday. “There are no socioeconomic boundaries for people with a heart for wildlife,� said Davis. “They come from all walks, and share this bond.� Online: Eagle Fest, www.sodesoto.com Mississippi Wildlife Rehabilitation,www. mswildliferehab.org
Wandering deer make dangerous pests for airports and threats to pilots BY JOAN LOWY Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Oh, deer! Unwary motorists aren’t the only ones who need to beware of the four-legged bane of gardeners, especially at this time of the year. Pilots are also having deer encounters that rarely end well, especially for the deer. Soaring deer populations are nuisances for airports and threats to pilots and planes, according to aviation and wildlife experts. Whether driven by hunger or just crazy for love, deer will do seemingly anything to get onto airport grounds and runways, including leaping over tall fences or squeezing under them. Once there, they like to warm themselves by sauntering on runways, which hold heat longer than bare ground. But put a deer and a plane together on a runway and both can have a very bad day. From 1990 to 2013, there were 1,088 collisions between planes and deer, elk, moose and caribou, according to a recent joint report by the Federal Aviation Administration and the Agriculture Department. Most of the planes suffered damage, and some were destroyed, the report said. One person was killed and 29 injured. There’s no mention of the fate of the deer. The vast majority of
collisions involved whitetailed deer, the smallest member of the North American deer family, but big enough to wreck a plane. Their population has risen from about 350,000 in 1900 to more than 28 million in 2010. They’ve caused $44 million in aircraft damage and 238,000 hours of lost flying time over the past 24 years. About 30 percent of collisions occurred during the October-November mating season. Last month in Florida, the propeller of a small plane landing at night at the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport struck a deer, causing the plane’s front landing gear to collapse, according to local police. The pilot and three passengers were unhurt. Most collisions involve small planes, but airliners occasionally tangle with deer as well. A US Airways jet plowed through a herd of deer shortly after landing at Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina in October 2010. At least one deer became entangled in the plane’s main landing gear and the runway had to be closed for about 40 minutes while the mess was cleaned up. Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, many larger airports have built tall fences topped with barbed wire, mostly as a security measure but also
to keep deer and other wildlife out, said Richard Dolbeer, an Agriculture Department science adviser and co-author of the report. Airports also use sharpshooters to eliminate deer that manage to make their way under fences or through cracks, he said. “Just an 8-inch gap and they can squeeze through,� Dolbeer said. Smaller airports that serve mainly private pilots have been slower to install deer-proof fences, he said. So while deer collisions have dropped significantly at large airports, they’re down only slightly at smaller ones. Last year, there were 33 collisions, he said. The College Park Airport in Maryland is a smaller airport struggling to keep deer out. It

is bordered on one side by a park and lake, and on the other by an industrial area. Nearly every day airport employees get into a truck, flip on the siren and charge toward deer into order to scatter them off the grounds so planes can take off or land. A 7-foot fence was built a few years ago along the park border, but a beaver felled a tree onto the fence and allowed the deer back in. The airport then put up an 8-foot fence with barbed wire, but deer just walked around the airport to the industrial park and leapt over a 6-foot fence on that side. The airport now plans to build a taller fence there as well. “Nature found a way,� said Langston Majette, the airport’s senior operations specialist. Officials at the AAA

The largest 200 stocks are on pace to beat small-cap stocks by the widest margin since 1998.

the biggest stocks, for example. To Doug Ramsey, chief investment officer at the Leuthold Group, the trend shows that the market is girding for rising interest rates. Small caps have historically dropped more than the rest of the market when the Federal Reserve has raised rates, just like they’ve historically jumped more when rates are dropping. Other stocks that are hardest hit by rising rates — such as retailers, apparel makers and other companies that depend on discretionary spending by consumers — have likewise been lagging. Most economists expect the Fed to begin raising rates sometime next year, and the central bank is on pace to wrap up its bond-buying stimulus program next month.
Small stocks are getting a big brush-off from investors. Stocks of smaller companies have dropped this year, even as big-company stocks have continued to reach record highs. Worries about high price tags have hurt small-cap stocks, along with concerns that coming interest-rate hikes will sap demand for them. If the trend continues, 2014 will be only the third time in the last 12 years that the Russell 2000 small-cap index has lagged an index of the biggest 200 stocks. Even with this year’s declines, small-cap stocks still look expensive relative to their earnings and sales, analysts say. The Russell 2000 recently traded at 22 times the earnings of companies in the index, versus 18 times for the Russell 200 index of

Eye on Nike Wall Street expects Nike’s earnings and revenue improved in the June-August quarter. The athletic apparel and footwear maker, which is due to report its fiscal first-quarter financial results today, has benefited this year from strong sales growth. Those gains have helped offset a pickup in marketing costs. Investors will be listening for an update on Nike’s marketing expenses, which surged 10 percent in the previous quarter.

Business orders for durable goods shot up by the largest amount on record in July. Most of the strength contributing to the sharp gain in the orders for long-lasting manufactured goods stemmed from demand for commercial aircraft, which tends to fluctuate sharply from month to month. That’s one reason economists anticipate that the Commerce Department will report today that durable goods orders plunged in August.

Woman feels ignored by in-laws WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT

PICKLES
Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for four years. We were high school sweethearts. We were both briefly married to other people before reuniting, and my husband has a child from his first marriage. My husband was raised by his grandparents, but when he was a teenager, he was introduced to his father and moved in with Dad, his new wife and their child. They had a close relationship, but it seems over now. It has been six months since we have seen or heard from my in-laws, even though they live in the same city. They often visit their other son, who lives a mile away, but they never come to see us. They say we are welcome anytime, but never phone, text or invite us to family gatherings. My husband works out of town a lot, and I feel awkward showing up at their home without him. Also a little disturbing is that they remain close with my husband’s exwife, which is great for my stepson. But if they can put so much effort into having a relationship with her (and her boyfriend), why not their own son? Should we address this issue or let it be? — Feeling Ousted by In-Laws Dear Ousted: The
Annie’s Mailbox issue should be addressed, but not by you. Your husband should speak up and ask his parents what’s going on. It could be that the ex-wife has asked them to limit contact as a condition of seeing their grandson. Or perhaps your mother-in-law is closer to her biological child than she is to your husband and leaves it to Dad to keep in touch — and Dad is not particularly good at it. If so, it may help for you to make the greater effort to cozy up to your mother-in-law and develop a friendlier relationship. But as always in such cases, there’s only so much you can do without some effort from the other side. Dear Annie: I am part of a ladies book club. Each of us is responsible on a rotating basis for the meal and facilitating the discussion. We have a lot of fun and have read some very interesting books. The problem is that two of the members take
turns hosting at the same house. This house is absolutely filthy and seems to get worse every time. The bathrooms smell like urine, there is no hand soap, the furniture is covered in dust and dog hair, and the trashcans are overflowing. Because they both host there, we are forced to endure the conditions twice as often. We no longer want to attend meetings there. The ladies in our club are not snobs, but the rest of us make some effort to offer a comfortable environment for our meetings. We don’t want to make dishonest excuses, and we don’t want to hurt their feelings by telling them, but we also don’t want to eat food prepared in filth. What can we do? — Southern Bookworm Dear Bookworm: Because you aren’t willing to tell them you are uncomfortable eating in that house, we suggest you have every meeting at the same neutral location — perhaps a restaurant or coffee shop. Some bookstores and libraries allow you to host such events, and you can check out other locations, as well. Meals do not have to be served. It may not be as intimate, but it solves the problem.

Illusion of perfect marriage is shattered by man’s discovery D E A R ABBY: I always thought that “Lana,” my wife of 14 years, and I had the perfect marAbigail riage. When Van Buren Ishediscovered was having an affair, Dear Abby it hit me like a train wreck. After many weeks of trying to discover who she really is, I found out she has had several affairs throughout our marriage. I still love my wife and feel I could forgive her and regain my trust in her. The problem is, she says she is trying to recover from her actions, so she can no longer hear about my problems or respond to any of my questions. Lana is now saying I need to see someone to discuss our issues with. We are already seeing a marriage counselor, but I suspect he is too connected to us as a couple. What do you think? -- LOST IN LIMBO DEAR IN LIMBO: I think the marriage counselor should have made clear to you and your wife that in order for trust to be rebuilt it takes LOTS of dialogue and listening on the part of both spouses. And painful as it may be for Lana, she
owes you the answers to your questions. That said, I think she is correct in suggesting you talk to someone individually. With the help of a licensed psychotherapist -- someone who is there JUST FOR YOU -- you may be able to rationally decide whether your wife is capable of being the person you assumed she was, and if staying married to her is the best thing for you. DEAR ABBY: My mother died a few years ago after a prolonged illness. My father has found a new lady (”Colette”) to share his life, and they are now engaged. My problem is my sisters. We are all adults with families of our own. They don’t like Colette at all. They are rude to her and behave like spoiled children. Colette is very different from Mom, but our family has always been open-minded and taken pride in our conviction that “normal” is just a setting on the dryer. Colette isn’t after Dad’s money, nor is she forcing her way into our lives. She’s also not trying to replace Mom. It appears she genuinely cares for our dad, which I can understand. He’s a good man, smart, attractive and fun to be with. Dad is happy as a clam. He’s enjoying life and has lots more life to live. The only thing that
mars his happiness is my sisters’ attitudes. What can I do to help them? I don’t want to be too harsh because I know they are still grieving, but I hate to see them drive a wedge into what remains of our family. -JOY IN TEXAS DEAR JOY: Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your mother. Perhaps you should remind your sisters how grateful they should be that your father has been able to find happiness after losing your mother. Not all widowers are able to do that. Stress that his desire to remarry is a tribute to the relationship he had with your mother, because men who had unfulfilling marriages usually don’t want to commit again. Point out that they have nothing to gain by alienating Colette and a lot to lose, because the more they treat her with disrespect, the farther away they will drive her -- and your dad.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). While it’s entirely possible to say something different from what you are thinking, your communication will probably turn out better if you think something different first and then think that through before you speak again. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There are several good ways to let off emotional tension. Telling a friend is one way, but that could backfire. Writing in a diary is a good way, although maybe you should write it in code. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Doing unto others as you would have them do to you only works when you both have the same preferences. The golden rule is good, but the platinum rule is better. Find out how they prefer to be treated. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will be trusted with a seemingly small task -- this is a test. In truth, there are no small tasks. Do your very best at this critical juncture, and you’ll be
richly rewarded. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you slip up once or twice, don’t let that stop you from following the original plan. If you slip up constantly, however, it might not be the right plan for you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll say goodbye to a fantasy and come to accept that there really is no happily ever after -- only a happy today over and over for as long as you decide to be happy. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your purse strings are too loose, and money is in danger of falling out wherever you trod. Finances are improving, but it’s still better to act conservatively. Pull those strings tight now, and next month will be better. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Whether you are heard or not will depend very much on your tone of voice. People crave your attention and tenderness. The world will respond best to your considerate, pleasant approach.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Unexpected happenings this morning may cause you to fall behind, but don’t let that worry you. Tend to what’s really important: the people you love. You’ll make up for lost time later in the afternoon. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Life will contradict itself to such a degree that you’ll wonder what you really know about it. That’s the exciting starting place for a whole new worldview, one that helps you effectively address the present. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You need your travels to take you new places, or you’ll quickly get bored. What if you let your curiosity (instead of your sense of duty) dictate the next leg of your journey? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). No pining for the past allowed today. Honestly, you’re better off for the way it all turned out. Anyway, you don’t need to turn back the clock; you just need to change its battery.

A WEEKLY SPIN AROUND COLLEGE FOOTBALL
HEISMAN WATCH 1. Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon Led the Ducks to a closer-than-expected win over Washington State by completing 21-of-25 passes for 329 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. 2. Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia Had a light workload (73 yards on six carries) in Georgia’s easy win over Troy.
BATTLE IN THE DESERT UCLA heads to Tempe for a key Thursday night Pac-12 showdown UCLA AT ARIZONA STATE (THU)
3. Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama Quarterback Blake Sims stole the headlines, but Cooper was once again dominant in Bama’s win over Florida. He had 10 catches for 201 yards and three TDs and now has 43 receptions for 655 yards. 4. Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor The Bears were on a bye; they open Big 12 play next Saturday night at Iowa State. 5. Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State The best dual-threat quarterback east of Eugene, Ore., played a vital role in the Bulldogs’ upset at LSU. For the season, Prescott is averaging 241.0 yards passing and 94.0 yards on the ground.
Two of the top teams in the Pac-12 meet in Tempe in a crucial matchup in the South Division. Unfortunately, the home-standing Sun Devils will not be at full strength; Taylor Kelly, one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the nation, will be out with a foot injury sustained in a win against Colorado. Junior Mike Bercovici, who has only attempted 24 career passes, will step in and make his first start. Expect ASU to lean on tailback D.J. Foster, who has 510 yards in three games and is averaging 9.4 yards per attempt — the most by any player in the nation with at least 50 carries. UCLA has injury concerns at quarterback as well, but Brett Hundley — one of the most valuable players in the nation — is expected to play after injuring his elbow in the Bruins’ win at Texas two weeks ago. UCLA is 3–0 but has yet to look like a team capable of reaching the College Football Playoff. UCLA by 3
STANFORD AT WASHINGTON Washington has an opportunity to make a huge statement in its first conference game of the Chris Petersen era. The Huskies have not looked great — they only beat Hawaii by one point in Week 1 and were trailing Georgia State 14–0 at the half before pulling away for a win last weekend — but this team is talented Mitch Light enough to elbow its way into the Pac-12 North Athlon Sports race. Redshirt freshman quarterback Cyler Miles Executive Editor has thrown 71 passes without an interception; he @AthlonMitch will have to play mistake-free to give his team a chance to win against a Stanford defense that has given up a total of 10 points and an average of 204.3 yards in three games. Granted, the Cardinal have only played against one competent offensive team (USC), but their numbers are still extremely impressive. Stanford by 6
WEEKEND ON TAP: 30 KEY GAMES
Quarterback Brett Hundley and the Bruins begin Pac-12 play with a trip to Arizona State on Thursday night. UCLA is 3–0 overall.
lighted by impressive wins at Texas Tech (49–28) and vs. Northern Illinois (52–14). The Hogs, as expected, have been extremely effective running the ball; they lead the SEC with 324.5 yards per game and are averaging 7.1 yards per carry. Texas A&M held South Carolina to 67 rushing yards in Week 1 — due in part to A&M’s early lead that forced the Gamecocks to throw the ball — but gave up 240 to Rice in a Week 3 win. Stopping the run will be of paramount importance for the Aggies. Texas A&M by 11
MISSOURI AT SOUTH CAROLINA This game was attractive enough to lure ESPN’s College GameDay to town, but the Battle of Columbia lost a bit of its luster after Missouri’s shocking loss at home to Indiana on Saturday. The Tigers’ defense, impressive in the early going of the 2014 season, gave up 241 yards rushing and 252 yards passing en route to the school’s first non-conference loss at home since 2005 (New Mexico). South Carolina survived a scare in Nashville on Saturday night against Vanderbilt. Gamecock coach Steve Spurrier wasn’t too impressed with his team’s 48–34 win: “We’ve all seen good football teams. We ain’t one,” he said after watching his team give up two kickoff returns for a touchdown and allowing Vanderbilt to average 6.9 yards per play. South Carolina is good enough offensively to win the SEC East but will need to show vast improvement over the next two months on the defensive side of the ball to remain in the race. South Carolina by 7
TENNESSEE AT GEORGIA The boys in Vegas don’t think this will be much of a game — Georgia is favored by 18 points — but don’t be surprised if Tennessee makes the Bulldogs sweat. The Volunteers have looked pretty good on offense through three games despite ranking near the bottom of the league in most categories. Their troubles on the offensive line are well-documented, but they boast some exciting young playmakers at running back and wide receiver and have a solid senior quarterback in Justin Worley. Georgia, which let one get away at South Carolina two weeks ago, got back on track Saturday afternoon with a dominant win over a really bad Troy team. The Bulldogs will need to prove they can slow down a top-flight passing attack before we can consider them a Playoff-caliber team. Georgia by 10
ARKANSAS VS. TEXAS A&M (ARLINGTON, TEXAS) Here’s some evidence why the SEC West is so strong: Virtually every preseason prognostication had Arkansas picked last in the division and most had Texas A&M picked fifth or sixth. Well, it’s still early, but the Aggies are 4–0 and ranked among the top six nationally in virtually every poll. Arkansas, meanwhile, is 3–1, high-
PRIME TIME PLAYERS Suffice it to say that there’s no quarterback controversy at Alabama. Senior Blake Sims put a stranglehold on the job by showing up big for a key win, completing 23-of-33 passes for 445 yards and four touchdowns as the Tide overcame their own miscues to beat Florida 42–21. Sims found favorite target Amari Cooper 10 times for 201 yards and three scores. … Melvin Gordon posted simply outrageous numbers in Wisconsin’s 68–17 rout of Bowling Green, notching career highs of 253 yards rushing and five TDs on only 13 carries, for a staggering yards-percarry average of 19.5. The Badgers rushed for a Big Ten-record 644 yards against a Falcons team coming off a win over Big Ten member Indiana. … Oklahoma may have another future Heisman winner on its hands. Samaje
Perine, a 240-pound true freshman manchild, bulldozed his way through the West Virginia defense for 242 yards and four touchdowns on 34 clock-consuming carries. “He’s gonna be special,” said Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops after the Sooners’ 45–33 win over the Mountaineers. … East Carolina bludgeoned in-state rival North Carolina 70–41, and not all of the Pirates’ damage was done through the air. Senior tailback Breon Allen rushed for a careerhigh 211 yards and two touchdowns to lead an ECU attack that rolled up 789 yards of total offense. … Arizona scored an astounding 36 points in the fourth quarter to rally from a 31–13 deficit for an improbable 49–45 win over California. Wildcat quarterback Anu Solomon led the charge by throwing for 520 yards and five touchdowns — the final one coming on a 47-yard Hail Mary to Austin Hill on the game’s final play.
Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State Prescott led the Bulldogs to their first win over an AP top-10 opponent in 14 years in one of the most hostile environments in college football, Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge. Prescott, a Louisiana native, shredded the LSU defense, completing 15-of-24 passes for 268 yards and two touchdowns and adding 105 yards and a 56-yard TD on the ground, in the process placing himself in the Heisman conversation. Hundley: Bruce Schwartzman; Cooper: Athlon Sports Prescott: Margaret Bowles
STOCK REPORT The Mississippi State Bulldogs traveled to LSU seeking the defining win of the Dan Mullen era. They got it — after surviving a little Les Miles magic. For most of the night, the Bulldogs dominated LSU in a closer-than-necessary 34–29 win, piling up 570 yards, the most ever allowed by a Miles team.
We had not seen a good old-fashioned Clemsoning in a while, but Florida State’s 23–17 win over the Tigers in overtime qualifies. Clemson missed two field goals in regulation; fumbled deep in FSU territory while driving for a possible winning score; and failed to score in overtime.
The maligned Big Ten went 12–1 against nonconference opponents. Of course, those 12 wins include woeful Eastern Michigan and two FCS foes, but the league did get more-than-respectable wins over Missouri (Indiana), Pittsburgh (Iowa), Syracuse (Maryland), Navy (Rutgers) and Miami (Nebraska).
It’s not looking good for Michigan coach Brady Hoke. His team failed to reach the red zone in a 26–10 home loss to Utah interrupted by a weather delay. Hoke was seen arguing with defensive coordinator Greg Mattison; perhaps he should save his wrath for offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier.

Beamer: Hokies not a very good team right now The Associated Press
Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer and his players have a little edge to them this week. The coach said he’s not used to going through growing pains two weeks in a row. “We’re not a good football team right now,” Beamer said this week. “Just too many penalties, too many mistakes and too much not coming up with the play. But we can be a good football team and it’s up to us to get there. We’re not there right now. I think ev-
eryone fully understands that.” The Hokies (2-2) hope to make strides when they host Western Michigan (2-1) on Saturday. Wide receiver Willie Byrn thinks the problem is focus. He says Virginia Tech was precise because it knew it had to be to win at Ohio State, but that maybe the team has slacked off on focus since. The Broncos, of MidAmerican Conference, have faced the Hokies three times previously, and have lost the three
games by a combined 1240. The last meeting ended 63-0 at Lane Stadium in 2004. team is averaging 39.5 points after consecutive games scoring 45. The offense is led by freshman tailback Jarvion Franklin, who has run for three touchdowns in each of their games. The 6-foot-2, 220-pounder is averaging 6.6 yards per carry while quarterback Zach Terrell has six touchdown throws. More than worrying about what the Broncos are doing, Beamer said the Hokies have to correct
mistakes like the handful of illegal substitution penalties that plagued them in a 27-24 loss to Georgia Tech last weekend, and to continue to get production from its passing game without turning the ball over. Quarterback Michael Brewer threw for 297 yards against the Yellow Jackets, but also threw three interceptions that turned into 17 points. In four starts, he’s already thrown eight interceptions. “I think Brewer played his best football game other than three plays,”
Beamer said Monday. “But you’ve got to count every play. Three critical plays in the ballgame. I thought our kids played extremely hard. As you look at the video, there’s so many times we could have won the game, but the bottom line is we didn’t, and you give Georgia Tech credit. They did. And that’s where we are as a football team.” A 35-21 victory at Ohio State in the second week “cements the idea that no one can beat us,” Byrn said, and may have contributed to the failure to
execute in subsequent losses to East Carolina and the Yellow Jackets. Both came at Lane Stadium, the Hokies’ first losses there in consecutive weeks since 1995. This week, he said, it’s back to basics, no matter who they are playing on Saturday. “We’re going to watch, we’re going to see their game plan, strategy, but more so it’s about us, it’s about focusing in practice and making sure we’re signaling on and off the field from an offensive perspective,” he said.

The Alcorn Central boys maintained their unbeaten mark and set another standard by winning their division at the Saltillo Cross Country Invitational on Saturday. The Bears, who have prevailed in all three meets this season, held a 31-point margin over runner-up Hatton, Alabama. It was Central’s first win at the Saltillo event. “This was a good win with almost all of our runners re-
cording a season best,” said AC Coach Bobby Purvis. “This included our middle schoolers that also ran as varsity.” Samuel Holley topped Central with a second-place finish -- out of a 176-deep field -- with a time of 17:34. AC’s top five finishers all broke 20 minutes. Central’s top five runners finished inside the Top 20: Trevor Godwin (6th), Luke Holley (7th), Jakob Carter (16th) and Austin McAlister (20th). The Bears beat out 17 other
teams in claiming the title and pushed their head-tohead mark to 36-0. The Central girls finished 11th in their division. Ashlee Manahan led the Lady Bears (11-18) with a 46th-place finish in 24:20. “The girls, with some youth and inexperience, are continuing to show good improvement from a year ago,” said Purvis.

Offense rules leading SEC’s identity change The Associated Press
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. —The Southeastern Conference held to the notion that defense won championships as long as it could. Like the rest of the country, however, college football’s most dominant league has finally embraced an undeniable fact: Offense rules — and how. With three of the top four scoring teams in
the country this season, SEC teams lead all conferences with an average of 39.7 points per game. That’s up from 31.7 points last season and falls in line with the national rise in scoring totals in recent years. Yes, even the league once known for Bear Bryant and defense has begun to out-Pac 12 the offensive-renowned Pac-12 Conference. “I think it’s what football is right
now,” Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze said. “The fans like it. It’s exciting ... It’s just kind of where we are right now. I don’t know what else the defenses can do. Trust me; it’s a chore to try to figure it out.” Nowhere will the uptick in the SEC’s offensive prowess be on more display this weekend than when No. 6 Texas A&M and Arkansas meet in Arlington, Texas. The high-
flying Aggies are second in the nation in scoring behind Baylor with an average of 55.3 points per game, while the resurgent Razorbacks are third at 48.8. The two former Southwest Conference rivals arrive at their prolific scoring totals in vastly different ways — with Texas A&M primarily through the air and Arkansas on the ground — but they aren’t alone in the SEC.
Jeter, Yankees eliminated from contention after loss The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees were eliminated from postseason contention, wasting a three-run lead Thursday in a 9-5 loss to Nelson Cruz and the AL East champion Baltimore Orioles. Jeter went 0 for 4 as the designated hitter in his nextto-last game home game, ending a seven-game hitting streak and dropping his average to .253. The Yankees missed the
playoffs in consecutive years for the first time since 1992 and ‘93. The only other time New York missed the playoffs during in the retiring captain’s 20-season big league career was in 2008. “It’s disappointing. It’s frustrating,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. “This is not where you want to be at this time of year.” Trying to play through injuries to four-fifths of their starting rotation, the Yankees are 81-77 and still trying to
ensure a 22nd straight season with a winning record. New York played the entire season without star third baseman Alex Rodriguez, suspended following a drug investigation by Major League Baseball. The Yankees were eliminated with four games remaining for the second straight year. They are scheduled to end the home portion of their schedule Thursday night, when Jeter is expected to be lauded by fans for a career that included five of New York’s 27
World Series titles. Rain is in the forecast. Baltimore, headed to the playoffs for the second time in three seasons, began the day 2 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Angels, who play at Oakland. Cruz had two of his four singles and slugger Adam Jones a safety squeeze in a six-run fourth for Baltimore, which is trying to overtake the Los Angeles Angels for the AL’s best record and home-field Please see YANKEES | 13

advantage throughout the postseason. As they have throughout the final homestand, fans stood, cheered and chanted “De-rek Je-ter!” for each of the captain’s at-bats during a rare September mid-week afternoon game. Even though Jeter was the designated hitter, the Bleacher Creatures included Jeter in the firstinning roll call. Jeter wasn’t in the dugout to acknowledge them with the customary wave. Stars were out to say goodbye to Jeter, though. Former teammates Tino Martinez, Gerald Williams and Cecil Fielder were on hand as was Mo Vaughn, the 1995 AL MVP with Boston. Willie Randolph, a former Yankees co-captain and coach, caught a foul ball behind home plate. Jeter was given an extended ovation after he tapped out to first base in the eighth but he remained seated in the dugout and did not come out for the curtain call. The game ended when Brett Gardner struck out looking with Jeter on deck. Bud Norris (15-8) fell behind 3-0 despite getting seven of his first nine outs by strikeout. He allowed a leadoff homer in the second to Stephen Drew then fanned five straight, a string stopped in the
third inning with Chase Headley’s long ball. Norris improved to 9-1 against the division in 14 starts. He allowed three runs and five hits in six innings and struck out nine. Shane Greene (5-4) loaded the bases in the third but got Jones to ground into an inningending forceout. The rookie had no such success in the fourth inning, when the Orioles sent 11 men to the plate and scored three times with two outs. Ryan Flaherty had a bases-loaded two-run double and David Lough an RBI triple. Greene exited to boos after Jones bunted toward third base with Headley playing deep for a 6-3 lead. Mark Teixeira had an RBI double and two-run homer for New York. TRAINER’S ROOM Orioles: Manager Buck Showalter said he exchanged texts with suspended 1B Chris Davis. Serving a 25-game ban following a positive test for an amphetamine, Davis reported to the Orioles complex in Sarasota, Florida, and will play in instructional games. Davis could return late in the postseason. Yankees: Jacoby Ellsbury (hamstring) and Carlos Beltran (elbow) are still not ready to return, and manager Joe Giardi said it would be “pretty tough” for either to play again this season.

Stewart will not face charges in deadly crash The Associated Press
CANANDAIGUA, N.Y. — Three-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart will not be charged with the death of a fellow driver at a sprint car race in upstate New York, prosecutors said Wednesday in disclosing for the first time that the victim had enough marijuana in his system the night he died to impair his judgment. Ontario County District Attorney Michael Tantillo said a grand jury decided against charging Stewart with either second-degree manslaughter or criminally negligent homicide in the Aug. 9 death of Kevin Ward Jr., who was struck and killed as he walked down the track in an apparent attempt to confront the NASCAR veteran after their cars got tangled up one lap earlier. “There is toxicology evidence in the case relating to Kevin Ward that indicates that at the time of operation he was under the influence of marijuana,” Tantillo said. “The levels determined were enough to impair judgment.” Tantillo also said two videos — one from a fan, the other from the tiny track in this New York hamlet — had been examined and enhanced. Both showed Stewart did not do anything wrong and that there was no “aberrational driving.” The decision came
nearly seven weeks after Stewart’s car struck and killed Ward, sending shock waves through the top racing series in the United States. “This has been the toughest and most emotional experience of my life, and it will stay with me forever,” Stewart said in a prepared statement. “While much of the attention has been on me, it’s important to remember a young man lost
his life. Kevin Ward Jr.’s family and friends will always be in my thoughts and prayers.” The Ward family indicated in a statement read over the telephone by his sister, Kayla Herring, that they will seek civil damages. “Our son got out of his car during caution when the race was suspended. All the other vehicles were reducing speed and not accelerating except for
Stewart, who intentionally tried to intimidate Kevin by accelerating and sliding his car toward him, causing the tragedy,” the family said. “The focus should be on the actions of Mr. Stewart. This matter is not at rest and we will pursue all remedies in fairness to Kevin.” The grand jurors were not considering whether anybody else was at fault, Tantillo said.
