A local industry has taken a big step in providing holiday meals for the community’s families in need, but there is still a long way to go in the effort to raise funds for the project. On Nov. 11, John Mocny, general manager of Caterpillar Inc.’s Mississippi Remanufacturing Operation, presented a $10,000 check to the Corinth Rotary Club Christmas Basket Fund Committee Chairman Ronnie Sleeper and Daily Corinthian Publisher Reece Terry. The donation illustrated Caterpillar’s ongoing support for the annual program. “I can’t tell you how thankful we are to John Mocny and the folks at Caterpillar. Their donation goes a long, long way to meeting that goal,” said Sleeper. The Corinth Rotary Club teams up with the Daily Corinthian each year to provide packages of food for qualifying families in the community. Based on the estimated level of need, they set a goal for the year. This year the goal is $25,000 — $5,000 more than the goal for previous years. This year the Christmas Basket Fund will pay for 1,100 food packages, up from last year’s 900. “We feel like this year we will see the greatest need because of the condition of the economy — and we really want to be able to serve more families,” Sleeper said. Each year they determine the level of need in the

BIGGERSVILLE — The flag rose and the firehouse bell rang Saturday morning as Biggersville’s new north fire station officially went into service. Community members gathered to get a look at Mississippi’s only fire station funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. It is located just south of Corinth on U.S. Highway 45. “This new station is centrally lo-

The Boys & Girls Club of Corinth is in need of some angels. The Club is celebrating the reason for the season with a Christmas Angel Breakfast on Dec. 10 at its Clark Street site. “It takes a lot of hands to prepare and serve a room full of very excited children,” said Unit Director Christy Grice. “That’s why we are starting early recruiting volunteers to make this a very special event.” Grice says there is a need for cooks, servers, hostesses, craft helpers along with the angels. “The object is to create some family fun while also providing the Club the unique opportunity of focusing children’s attention on the real reason for Christmas,” said the unit director. The breakfast, set for 9 a.m., requires angels to attend a half hour rehearsal on how to interact with the children and the songs they will sing. Volunteers will wear simple white shirts with wings and a halo with dark-colored slacks. Each child will be allowed to bring two guests such as a parent, grandPlease see CLUB | 3A
This Thanksgiving holiday season, a 53-yearold Corinth woman is especially thankful — to be alive. Traffic accident victim Linda M. Harris is still recovering from several injuries sustained when the pickup truck she was driving struck a concrete culvert the morning of Oct. 20 on Proper Street. “Several nurses and many doctors have told me I am lucky to be alive,” said Harris, a former factory worker who is now disabled. “I know the Lord was with me that day.” She has a six-inch scar across her forehead, a result of head trauma which has created short

I didn’t even turn my head. Then all of a sudden, it was too late.” The westbound 1985 Chevy C10 pickup struck the culvert about 9 a.m. near Noel Street.

three drive-through truck bays, sleeping quarters and a day room. “One thing we’re most proud of is our helipad on the north side of the building,” said Claunch. “It provides a safe place for them to land, especially at night.” The new station is expected to cut response time in the north part of the fire district by 10 to 12 minutes. “In that amount of time you could lose a home,”
said Claunch. The new station will bring fire insurance savings of as much as 40 percent to residents of the area. Rider said the department has come a long way from its beginning with a meeting of citizens in the Biggersville High School cafeteria in 1980 and has become one of the county’s busiest departments. Through October of this year, the department has responded to 258 calls, with the majority of those, 113, being medical. “Over the years,” said Rid-
er, “we have developed quite an arsenal of trained personnel from search and rescue personnel, rescue scuba divers, firefighters with advanced levels of training and medical personnel.” Ed Settle, a former Biggersville chief of 10 years, described the new station as a “fantastic facility.” “I’m proud they’ve got it,” he said. “They’ve got some really dedicated firefighters, and that’s what it takes.” The existing station on County Road 513 will remain open.

FDA revokes approval of Avastin for breast cancer BY LAURAN NEERGAARD Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The government delivered a blow to some desperate patients Friday as it ruled the blockbuster drug Avastin should no longer be used to treat advanced breast cancer. Avastin is hailed for treating colon cancer and certain other malignancies. But the Food and Drug Administration said it appeared to be a false hope for breast cancer: Studies haven’t found that it helps those patients live longer or brings enough other benefit to outweigh its dangerous side effects. “I did not come to this decision lightly,” said the FDA’s commissioner, Dr. Margaret Hamburg. But she said, “Sometimes despite the hopes of investigators, patients, industry and even the FDA itself, the results of rigorous testing can be disappointing.” Avastin remains on the market to treat certain colon, lung, kidney and brain cancers. Doctors are free to prescribe any marketed drug as they see fit. So even though the FDA formally revoked Avastin’s approval as a breast cancer treatment, women could still receive it — but their insurers may not pay for it. Some insurers already have quit in anticipation of FDA’s long-expected ruling. However, “Medicare will continue to cover Avastin,” said Brian Cook, spokesman for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The agency “will monitor the issue and evaluate coverage options as a result of action by the FDA but has no immediate plans to change coverage policies.” Including infusion fees, a year’s treatment with Avastin can reach $100,000.
The ruling disappointed patients who believe Avastin is helping to curb their incurable cancer. “It’s saved my life,” said a tearful Sue Boyce, 54, of Chicago. She’s taken Avastin in addition to chemotherapy since joining a research study in 2003. Her breast cancer eventually spread to her lungs, liver and brain, but Boyce says she is stable and faring well. “So I’m hoping the insurance company will grandfather me in to continue taking it,” she said. The Avastin saga began in 2008, when an initial study suggested the drug could delay tumor growth for a few months in women whose breast cancer had spread to other parts of the body. Over the objection of its own advisers and to the surprise of cancer groups, FDA gave Avastin conditional approval — it could be sold for such women while manufacturer Genentech tried to prove it really worked. The problem: Ultimately, the tumor effect was even smaller than first thought. Across repeated studies, Avastin patients didn’t live longer or have a higher quality of life. Yet the drug causes some life-threatening risks, including severe high blood pressure, massive bleeding, heart attack or heart failure and tears in the stomach and intestines, the FDA concluded. In two public hearings — one last year and one this summer — FDA advisers urged the agency to revoke that approval. “The science is clear: Breast cancer patients are more likely to be harmed than helped by Avastin,” said Diana Zuckerman of the National Research Center for Women and Families in Washington. Genentech had argued the drug
should remain available while it conducted more research to see if certain subsets of breast cancer patients might benefit, and some patients and their doctors had argued passionately for the drug. “There certainly are patients who benefit tremendously,” said Boyce’s oncologist, Dr. Melody Cobleigh of Rush University Medical Center. “We’ll just be battling with the insurance companies.” “For those not fortunate enough to be on Medicare or an insurance plan that covers it, it’s a death sentence,” Christi Turnage of Madison, Miss., said of the FDA’s decision. Her breast cancer had moved into her lungs before she began Avastin three years ago and the spreading stopped, but Turnage said her insurer is ending coverage and she will seek financial help from Genentech’s access program. Hamburg said that she considered those arguments but that scientifically there are no clues yet to identify who those rare Avastin responders would be — putting a lot of people at risk in order for a few to get some as-yet-unknowable benefit. She urged Genentech to do that research, saying the FDA “absolutely” would reconsider if the company could find the right evidence. Genentech, part of Swiss drugmaker Roche Group, pledged to begin that research. “We are disappointed with the outcome,” said company chief medical officer Dr. Hal Barron. “We remain committed to the many women with this incurable disease and will continue to provide help through our patient support programs to those who may be facing obstacles to receiving their treatment in the United States.”
Truck strikes Yale-Harvard tailgaters, killing 1 NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — A driver of a U-Haul truck carrying beer kegs through a tailgating area before the Yale-Harvard game Saturday suddenly accelerated, fatally striking a 30-year-old Massachusetts woman and injuring two other women, police said. It’s not clear why the driver sped up, New Haven Police spokesman David Hartman said. The truck then crashed into other U-Haul vans in the lot, an open playing field used for
pre-game tailgating parties before Yale home games in New Haven. Tim Walker of Pawtucket, R.I., said he was grilling sirloin tips when he heard the crash behind him. He turned and saw two people lying on the ground. People huddled around them trying to help, according to a video that appears to have been recorded shortly after the accident and posted online. “We’re not getting a pulse,” said someone crouched near one
victim, while the cameraman notes the ambulance hasn’t arrived. After emergency officials arrived, Walker said, he saw one victim being given CPR as she was taken away. “The driver looked shocked. Absolutely shocked,” Walker said. Police have not said whether alcohol was a factor. “He didn’t look intoxicated or anything like that,” Walker added. “He had a dazed look like he had just hit someone.”
FUND: After determining level of need, organizers put in food order CONTINUED FROM 1A
community based on input from area agencies, non-profit groups and charitable organizations including the Bishop Center, the Salvation Army and Crosswinds Ministry. Here’s how the program works: After determining the level of need and the money needed to meet that need, the Christmas Basket organizers put in an order for that much food. “Typically, we spend the money before we make it. We set the budget based on what we need,” Sleeper said. The food is bought wholesale, and with no administrative costs for the charitable effort, its organizers are able to make every dollar go a long way. Program organizers then hold a fund-

raising campaign to pay for the food. If the fundraising goal is not met, the Rotary Club makes up the difference. “If the fundraising falls short, the Rotary Club will provide for that,” Sleeper explained. “That’s a commitment we make gladly.” They generally plan to start each year with zero money and end with zero money, but if the fundraising goal is surpassed, the funds carry over for the next year’s Christmas Basket program. While businesses like Caterpillar make donations, the project’s organizers are also asking any other organizations— churches, Sunday school groups, civic and other clubs — to get involved with the effort. “We encourage them to consider us a good cause,” said Sleeper. “All

the money is going back into the community.” Donations from individuals are also needed to meet the goal. “No gift is too big or small,” said the project chairman. “If you have been blessed by this community, please give back. Even if it’s a small gift, we are so efficient that we can take a small gift and stretch it out.” While Caterpillar Inc. has already stepped up with a generous and significant donation, the community’s help is still needed in providing holiday meals to those close
to home who are struggling to put food on their tables. Donations to the Christmas Basket Fund can be brought by the Daily Corinthian building on Harper Road or mailed to the fund at P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835. Donations will be accepted until the goal is met. People are encouraged to give in honor or in memory of friends, coworkers or family. The donor and honored or remembered person will be acknowledged in the newspaper with the gift.

This holiday season, give thanks to American farmers To the editor: For the holidays, let’s give thanks to the American farmer. At this Thanksgiving holiday, most of us travel to see family or prepare to welcome family into our homes. More than any other day of the year, this holiday embodies the spirit of homecoming. In the spirit of the homecoming this holiday, we need look no further than our local farmer for this abundance and good fortune. Most farmers have come in from the fields now after harvesting a year’s worth of hard work. Our efforts will feed, clothe, and house the world for another year. Many people in our country have forgotten the role of the farmer. Farmers are more than simply providing food for the world. Farmers are the cornerstone of our economy – especially here in Mississippi. The farming industry touches everyone even if you live in a large city and have never driven a tractor. Of course, farmers provide the food we consume, but beyond that, truck drivers, researchers, scientists, ag suppliers, equipment dealers, clothing salesmen – all of these, and many more, have jobs because of agriculture. Our Farm Families of Mississippi media campaign strives to tell the story of the farmer and all that he or she provides to the consumer everyday. This Thanksgiving, as you gather around your dinner table and give thanks to our Creator for all his divine blessings, it is fitting that we thank Him for the men and women of agriculture who use all of the resources God provides to improve the quality of our lives. May God bless each of you and keep you safe this holiday season. Randy Knight, President Mississippi Farm Bureau Federation

STARKVILLE — Mississippians voted earlier this month to hand the keys to the state Capitol to exclusive Republican leadership. Gov.-Elect Phil Bryant, Lt. Gov.-Elect Tate Reeves, and House Speaker-Designate Rep. Philip Gunn are all Republican and Republicans have majorities in the Senate and the House for the first time since Reconstruction. Democrats hold only one seat – that of veteran 2nd District U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson of Bolton – in the state’s congressional delegation. Does that Republicanheavy reality make Mississippi a flyover state for Democrats in the 2012 presidential election? Perhaps. But for Republicans – like Rick Perry who visited Mississippi earlier this week – it won’t stop contenders for the nomination from coming to Mississippi seeking campaign cash and the political blessings of Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour. Despite bowing out
of a presidential bid in his own right earlier this year, Barbour remains a force of Sid nature in Salter national Republican polColumnist itics and his support will be courted by all serious GOP presidential contenders. Democrats have since the days of Robert Kennedy’s 1967 visit to Tunica used Mississippi as a backdrop for images of poverty and deprivation and for images of civil rights unrest. 30 years later, Minnesota U.S. Sen. Paul Wellstone retraced Kennedy’s steps, finding Tunica changed because of the state’s legalization of gaming but still finding abject poverty. Wellstone’s likely presidential aspirations were interrupted first by a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in 1996 and ended by the 2002 plane crash that
claimed his life. Barack Obama won 43 percent of vote in Mississippi in his 2008 presidential bid while making campaign stops in Jackson and Columbus. As president, Obama visited the Gulf Coast in 2010 after the BP oil spill and famously stopped for snow cones with Barbour on a Mississippi Gulf Coast beach. Obama, like GOP candidates, isn’t adverse to raising funds in Mississippi. But by and large, Mississippi’s low number of electoral votes and rather predictable Republican bend in presidential politics has left the state primarily a “tarmac” state – one in which presidential candidates fly in, hold a press conference, and get back on the plane. The 2011 Mississippi general election reinforces the fact that the GOP for now has a firm grip on the majority of Mississippi voters. It’s unlikely that either major political party will suddenly see Mississippi as a battleground state and
suddenly begin bus tours of the state. But with the Republican primary battle so fragmented and fickle – with new GOP poll leaders rising and falling by the week – expect more attention in 2012 from GOP contenders. Likewise, if President Obama wants a bully pulpit from which to rail against corporate profits or pollution, don’t be surprised if he doesn’t choose Gulf Coast venues in Republican states like Mississippi and Alabama from which to launch such discussions. Clearly, Mississippi with 3 million people, a relatively unexciting primary, and only six electoral votes will never be a hotbed of presidential campaigning. But as close as the next presidential election may well be, Mississippi might start looking more inviting over the next year. Sid Salter is a syndicated columnist.

Is a vote for Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich a vote for yet another unfunded war of choice, this time with a nation, Iran, three times as large and populous as Iraq? Mitt says that if elected he will move carriers into the Persian Gulf and “prepare for war.” Newt is even more hawkish. America should continue “taking out” Iran’s nuclear scientists — i.e., assassinating them — but military action will probably be needed. Newt is talking up uberhawk John Bolton for secretary of state. Rick Santorum has already called for U.S.Israeli strikes: “Either we’re going to stop them ... or take the long term consequences of having a nuclear Iran trying to wipe out the state of Israel.” But if Iran represents, as Bibi Netanyahu is forever reminding us, an “existential threat,” why does not Israel itself, with hundreds of nuclear weapons, deal with it? Bibi’s inaction speaks louder than Bibi’s words. He wants the Americans to do it. For the retired head of Mossad, Meir Dagan, calls attacking Iran “the stupidest thing I have ever heard of.” He means stupid for Israel. Why? Because an Israeli attack would be costly in planes and pilots, and only set back Iran’s nuclear program. And such a preemptive strike wouldunify

Iranians behind the regime. Moreover, Israel would be inviting Tehran’s ally Patrick H e z b o l l a h Buchanan to rain down rockets on Columnist Israel, igniting another of the bloody Lebanon wars that Israel was desperate to end the last time. As for the United States, the only way we could eliminate Iran’s nuclear program would be days of air and missile strikes. Iran could retaliate by cutting off oil exports and mining the Strait of Hormuz, tripling the world price of oil, and hurling the European Union and United States into recession. Iran could also turn Hezbollah loose on Americans in Lebanon and urge Shias to attack U.S. troops, diplomats and civilians in Bahrain, Iraq and Afghanistan, and here in the United States. No one knows how this would end. A U.S.-Iran war could force us to march to Tehran to remove the Islamic regime and scour that huge country to ensure that it was shorn of weapons of mass destruction -- for an Islamic regime that survived a U.S. war would be hellbent on acquiring the bomb to pay us back. Yet, we lack a large enough army to occupy Iran. And why should thousands more Americans have
to die or come home to be fitted for metal limbs so Israel can remain sole proprietor of a nuclear weapon from Morocco to Afghanistan? And where is the hard evidence Iran is acquiring nukes? The U.S. intelligence community declared in December 2007, with “high confidence,” that Iran was no longer seeking nuclear weapons. It has never rescinded that declaration. And there is no conclusive evidence in that mediahyped report last week from the International Atomic Energy Agency that Iran is for certain building nuclear weapons. Indeed, that report was exposed as the work of incompetents within hours. Relying on intelligence agencies, the IAEA said a top Russian nuclear weapons scientist had been instructing Iranians for years. The scientist turns out to be V.I. Danilenko, who has no expertise in nuclear weapons, but is a specialist in using conventional explosives to produce nanodiamonds for the manufacture of lubricants and rubber. Are we being lied and stampeded into yet another war by the same propagandists who gave us the yellow-cake-from-Niger forgeries? Bibi calls Mahmoud Ahmadinejad another Hitler and says we are all in 1939 again. But is this credible? True, Ahmadinejad hosted a Holocaust conference featuring David Duke and said Israel should be wiped

off the map, but he does not control Iran’s military, has lost favor with the ayatollah, and has been threatened with impeachment. Ahmadinejad is a lame duck with less than two years left in his term. Is mighty Israel afraid of this man? Told that the IAEA said Iran was actively pursuing nuclear weapons, Ahmadinejad laughed: “The Iranian nation is wise. It won’t build two bombs against 20,000 (nuclear) bombs you (Americans) have.” Does he not have a point? How would an Iranian bomb secure Iran, when Israel’s nuclear arsenal would be put on a hair trigger, and Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Egypt would then rush to get their own bombs? In that South Carolina debate, Ron Paul, the one person there proven right on Iraq, was given less than 90 seconds to speak. Under the Constitution, said Paul, no president has the right to launch an unprovoked attack on Iran without congressional authorization. Before America goes to war with Iran, let Congress, whose members are forever expressing their love for the Constitution, follow it, and vote on war with Iran. And before we go to the polls in 2012, let’s find out if the GOP is becoming again the same old War Party that bankrupted the nation. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?” and a newspaper columnist.

State MSU seafood scientist helps farmers in Malawi Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — A scientist working with Mississippi seafood spent three weeks teaching 200 farmers in southeast Africa how to make better and safer jams and juices from their organic produce. The farmers run a coop called ZAPCO, short for Zakudimba Producers Cooperative, in Bvumbwe, about 300 miles south of the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe.
They were eager to learn, said Barakat Mahmoud, who works at Mississippi State University’s Experimental Seafood Processing Laboratory in Pascagoula and is an assistant professor of food safety and microbiology with the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station. “I swear it was a very amazing experience for me,” he said Thursday. He had been afraid only a few people would show
up, but all 200 showed up at various times, about 40 or more each day. They worked on the co-op’s two biggest products: mango juice and tomato jam. ZAPCO had asked a program called Farmer-to-Farmer, run by a nonprofit called CNFA and paid for by the U.S. Agency for International Development, for help improving the quality and shelf life of its jams and juices. CNFA
asked the Institute of Food Technologists for help and Mahmoud, an IFT spokesman who is originally from Cairo, answered and spent three weeks in October as a volunteer in Malawi. Mahmoud’s research is in DNA detection of various bacteria and use of Xrays to kill germs in seafood and fresh produce. In Malawi, he taught less technical aspects of food safety. The co-op had received
food processing equipment from One Village One Product, a Malawi economic development program based on one in Japan. Approval papers for a 2004 grant from the U.S. African Development Foundation to expand ZAPCO’s vegetable processing said some of the money would be used for health and safety training. But Mahmoud said dirty containers and sanitation in general were a
big problem when he arrived at the start of October: “They really didn’t have any idea of the safety.” Simple techniques such as wearing clean clothes, keeping animals out of the processing room, carefully washing and sterilizing containers, and the time and temperature at which juice and jellies should be cooked to pasteurize them helped a great deal, Mahmoud said.
After fire and tornado, church is beginning to be rebuilt Associated Press
YAZOO CITY — In this quiet little town where the hill country rises up from the pancake-flat Delta farmlands, reminders of the killer tornado are all around. The bent flag poles and broken crosses, snapped trees and abandoned
houses, all claim a spot in the landscape now. Among the vestiges of destruction, a resurrection of sorts has taken shape in Yazoo City since the 2010 storm. The Hillcrest Baptist Church, destroyed first by fire, then by nature, has been rebuilt on a hillside at
the edge of town. The members of this small congregation are a determined and faithful lot who consider it nothing short of a miracle. “A church encompasses a community,” Pastor Rayburn Freeman said on a recent morning. “You’re not talking about
one little building up on a hill; you’re talking about a whole community.” The church is planning a dedication ceremony Sunday to celebrate its new building, and perhaps nobody is more thankful to be here for it than longtime member Dale Thrasher. J7NÂ<H;;Ã?DL;IJ?D=

Transport dock San Diego completes Navy trials Associated Press
PASCAGOULA — The amphibious transport dock San Diego — also called LPD 22 — has successfully completed its Navy acceptance trials, Ingalls Shipbuilding said. Shipbuilders will spend
the next month putting the final touches on the LPD 17-class vessel to be delivered in mid-December, The Mississippi Press reported (bit.ly/sb7qSe). San Diego will be homeported in its namesake city, joining USS New Or-
leans and USS Green Bay. The San Diego completed a two-day sea trial on Thursday, the shipyard said Friday. Sea trials test the ship’s main propulsion, steering, communications suite and deck missions systems.

Deficit deal failure would pose a very crummy choice BY ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press
WASHINGTON — If the deficit-cutting supercommittee fails, Congress will face a crummy choice. Lawmakers can allow payroll tax cuts and jobless aid for millions to expire or they extend them and increase the nation’s $15 trillion debt by at least $160 billion. President Barack Obama and Democrats on the deficit panel want to use the committee’s product to carry their jobs agenda. That includes cutting in half the 6.2 percent Social Security payroll tax and extending jobless benefits for people who have been unemployed for more than six months. Also caught up in what promises to be a chaotic legislative dash for the exits next month is the need to pass legislation to prevent an almost 30 percent cut in Medicare payments to doctors. Several popular business tax breaks and relief from the alternative minimum tax also expire at year’s end. A debt plan from the supercommittee, it was hoped, would have served as a sturdy, filibusterproof vehicle to tow all of these expiring provisions into law. But after months of negotiations, Republicans and Democrats were far apart on any possible compromise, and there was no indication of progress Saturday. Failure by the committee would leave lawmakers little time to pick up the pieces. And there’s no guarantee it all can get done, especially given the impact of those measures on the spiraling debt. Instead of cutting the deficit with a tough, bi-
partisan budget deal, Congress could pivot to spending enormous sums on expiring big-ticket policies. If lawmakers rebel against the cost, as is possible, they would bear responsibility for allowing policies such as the payroll tax cut, enacted a year ago to help prop up the economy, to lapse. Last year’s extensions of jobless benefits and first-ever cut in the payroll tax were accomplished with borrowed money. The 2 percent payroll tax cut expiring in December gave 121 million families a tax cut averaging $934 last year at a total cost of about $120 billion, according to the Tax Policy Center. Obama wants to cut the payroll tax by another percentage point for workers at a total cost of $179 billion and reduce the employer share of the tax in half as well for most companies, which carries a $69 billion price tag. “The notion of imposing a new payroll tax on people after Jan. 1 in the midst of this recession on working families is totally counterproductive,� said Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate. Letting extended jobless assistance expire would mean that more than 6 million people would lose benefits averaging $296 a week next year, with 1.8 million cut off within a month. Economist say those jobless benefits — up to 99 weeks of them in high unemployment states — are among the most effective way to stimulate the economy because unemployed people generally
spend the money right away. “We will have to address those issues,� Durbin said. Extending benefits to the long-term unemployed would cost almost $50 billion under Obama’s plan. Preventing the Medicare payment cuts to doctors for an additional 18 months to two years would in all likelihood cost $26 billion to $32 billion more. Lawmakers also had hoped to renew some tax breaks for business and prevent the alternative minimum tax from sticking more than 30 million taxpayers with higher tax bills. Those items could be addressed retroactively next year, but only increase the uncertainty among already nervous consumers and investors. This time, Obama wants them to be paid for. But a move by Democrats to try to finance jobs measures with hundreds of billions of dollars in savings from drawing down troops in Iraq and Afghanistan has gotten a cold shoulder from top Republicans. “I’ve made it pretty clear that those savings that are coming to us as a result of the wind-down of the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan should be banked, should not be used to offset other spending,� said House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. He did not address whether war savings could be used to extend expiring tax cuts. Those savings are the natural result of national security strategies unrelated to the federal budget. Deficit hawks say tapping into them is simply an accounting gimmick.

Wilson shines as Arkansas downs MSU BY KURT VOIGT The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK — Tyler Wilson made sure Arkansas didn’t stumble on its way to Baton Rouge. Anything but. The Razorbacks quarterback had a school-record 32 completions as No. 6 Arkansas defeated Mississippi State 44-17 on Saturday. Wilson finished 32 of 43 for 365 yards and three touchdowns. The win is the seventh straight for the Razorbacks (10-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference), who travel to No.
1 LSU next week for a game with conference and national title implications. It also clinched the first back-to-back 10-win seasons since 1988-89 for Arkansas, which completed its first undefeated season at home since 1999. Chris Gragg led the Razorbacks with a career-high 119 yards receiving on eight catches. The tight end also had a 2-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter that put Arkansas up 31-10, and the Razorbacks outgained the Bulldogs 539-211.
All six of Mississippi State’s (5-6, 1-6) losses this season have now come against teams currently ranked in the BCS standings. The Bulldogs were held to six three-and-outs. The Razorbacks led 14-3 in the first quarter and appeared on their way to another score when Wilson was sacked and fumbled on a third-and-goal. Fletcher Cox returned the fumble 52 yards for the Bulldogs, who closed it to 14-10 four plays later on Dylan Favre’s 5-yard touchdown run. That was the last of the scoring for the struggling Mis-
sissippi State offense that was led by Vick Ballard’s 54 yards rushing on 13 carries. Favre and starting quarterback Tyler Russell combined to finish 15 of 31 passing for 127 yards. The Bulldogs are now 2-12 against the SEC West under coach Dan Mullen. Arkansas, meanwhile, had no such offensive problems. Wilson’s completion record eclipsed the former mark of 31 completions by Joe Ferguson against Texas A&M in 1971. The junior quarterback Please see MSU | 9A

THRASHER -— Biggersville started the week with a disappointing first loss of the season for both its basketball squads. But the pair rebounded on the opening day of the Thrasher Tournament, with the Lions going on to win the invitational on day two, while
the Lady Lions fell short of a trophy on their loss to host team Thrasher. On Thursday, both the Lions and Lady Lions returned after a poor showing in Booneville to dish out a respective 85-75 win over Jumpertown and a 51-39 victory versus East Union. The Lions opened guns blazing against the Cardinals in the opening day match-up
with a trey by Tevin Watson, a gain that was swiftly nullified by a triple from Jumpertown’s Tristan Michael. Michael would later go home with a game-high 27 points despite the Cardinal loss. The defensive game held the court to a tight point-forpoint running up to the half, with Biggersville’s Blake Anderson matching Michael on
a pair of triples in the second. Team-mate Dexter Stafford helped establish a slight lead for BHS when he rebounded a missed free throw by Jaylon Gaines with under two minutes to the half. After a quick conversion under harm, Stafford’s freebie missed, then he quickly Please see LIONS | 9A
LSU cruises to win over Ole Miss BY DAVID BRANDT The Associated Press
OXFORD — LSU’s domination of Mississippi was so complete that with more than five minutes remaining in the game, the Tigers lined up in a victory formation, content to kneel four straight times rather than try for another touchdown. It was the only mercy No.
1 LSU would show during the 52-3 rout Saturday night. “Victory was assured,” LSU coach Les Miles said. “There was no reason to take snaps at that point.” Actually, the Tigers had the win in hand much sooner. Ron Brooks returned an interception for a touchdown 28 seconds into the game, LSU built a 35-3 lead by halftime
and kept pounding away at the Ole Miss defense all night, rushing for 353 yards. LSU running back Michael Ford said Brooks’ big play was all the Tigers needed. “It definitely took their breath away because it took our breath away, too,” Ford said. The Tigers (11-0, 7-0 Southeastern Conference) matched
their best start since 1958. It was the worst margin of defeat for Ole Miss since a 49-0 loss to Georgia in 1974. Quarterback Jordan Jefferson started his second consecutive game, completing 7 of 7 passes for 88 yards and a touchdown. Alfred Blue led the Tigers with 74 rushing yards Please see LSU | 9A
Gordon lifts Tennessee over Vanderbilt in OT BY BETH RUCKER The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE — Eric Gordon intercepted a pass by Jordan Rodgers and returned it 90 yards for a touchdown in overtime as Tennessee escaped Vanderbilt with a 27-21 win on Saturday night. The Vols (5-6, 1-6), who had not won a Southeastern Conference all season, ran across the field and mobbed Gordon — a Nashville native — in the end zone. The coaches called
them back to the sideline after the officials ruled Gordon’s knee touched the ground at Vols 10. A replay showed Gordon’s knee did not hit the grass, and the officials overturned it on review, ending the game. Twice last season, Tennessee thought it had pulled out a win in the closing seconds of the game only to see its fate changed because of penalties. Tennessee offensive coordinator Jim Chaney was seen
skipping through the press box after the game, shouting “We finally got a break!” A 20-yard touchdown pass from Rodgers to Chris Boyd gave Vanderbilt (5-6, 2-6) a 21-14 lead early in the fourth quarter. Tennessee made it to fourthand-goal at the 5 on the next drive, and coach Derek Dooley called for a 23-yard field goal attempt. Sean Richardson appeared to block the attempt but was penalized for running
into kicker Michael Palardy. Vanderbilt coach James Franklin asked for a review of the play, but the officials maintained that Richardson had not touched the ball before hitting Palardy’s leg. Tennessee got another chance at the 2-yard line, and this time Dooley opted to go for it. The decision paid off. Tyler Bray threw to Da’Rick Rogers, who stretched his right hand Please see VOLS | 9A

MSU: Hogs utilize 30-point run for win CONTINUED FROM 1B
opened the game with a 20-yard touchdown throw to Cobi Hamilton on the game’s opening possession, and he put the Razorbacks up 21-10 in the second quarter with a 32-yard strike to Joe Adams. Arkansas scored 30-straight points to go up 44-10 after Zach Hocker’s third field goal of the game. Jarius Wright added eight catches for 96 yards for the Razorbacks, and Dennis Johnson had 14 carries for 98 yards. Arkansas entered the game No. 6 in this week’s BCS rankings, already tied for the school’s highest mark, and the Razorbacks talked openly about the possibility of reaching both the SEC and national title games. Oklahoma State’s loss to Iowa State on Friday night possibly opened that door somewhat for Arkansas, but its best opportunity to impress voters —and the computers — will come on Friday against the top-ranked Tigers.
LSU: Tigers will host No. 6 Arkansas on Friday CONTINUED FROM 1B
while Spencer Ware added 70 yards and a touchdown. Ole Miss (2-9, 0-7) has lost six straight games and a schoolrecord 13 straight conference games. Barry Brunetti rushed for a team-high 74 yards as the Rebels managed just 195 total yards. LSU completed all eight of its pass attempts — seven by Jefferson and one by Jarrett Lee — but was content to run the ball for most of the game after building a 21-0 lead with 5:11 remaining in the first quarter. Kenny Hilliard rushed for 59 yards and a touchdown and Terrence Magee added 55 yards as LSU emptied its bench early and recovered from a lackluster effort in last week’s 42-9 win against Western Kentucky. Seven different players rushed for at least 25 yards and the Tigers averaged nearly eight yards per play. Miles was almost apologetic postgame. “It’s unfortunate to have a coach (Houston Nutt) end a home stand in a fashion like today,” Miles said. “That being said, we look forward to our future. It’s something that we’re really pointed to. It’s a short week, but we’re looking forward to taking on a very talented Arkansas team (next weekend).” LSU hosts No. 6 Arkansas on Friday in the regular-season finale for both teams. Ole Miss continued a miserable season that seems to find a new low each week. The already outmanned Rebels were further crippled when Nutt suspended starting quarterback Randall Mackey and leading rusher Jeff Scott for violating team rules. Without them, the game turned ugly in a hurry.

The Lions ended the tight match-up with a nose-rubbing dunk by Stafford off an assist from Mike Patterson, guaranteeing the Lions their day two shot at the trophy.

thumb Oct. 8 against Georgia. The cast on Bray’s throwing hand was removed Nov. 7, and the quarterback returned to practice a week later. Rogers caught 10 passes for 116 yards and the two touchdown throws from Bray, and became Tennessee’s seventh receiver to have at least 1,000

Double-digit points contributors for the Lady Lions were Tyler Shelley and newcomer Jada Tubbs, who worked hard to give BHS the lead early in the second after a shaky opening. Shelley and Tubbs combined to match Leach in an otherwise poor performance by the Lady Urchins. DAY TWO -- The Lions were quick to get moving against Thrasher Friday night, estab-

Only the applause wasn’t nearly enough to keep the Rebels’ juices flowing. As for the Lady Lions, their day two match-up against Thrasher wasn’t as successful.

Quail season opens on Thanksgiving Day
Shiloh National Military Park will host special interpretive presentations on wild turkeys in the month of November. These one- hour programs will discuss the history, biology and behavior of America’s largest game bird. The presentations will start in the Shiloh Visitor Center auditorium with a presentation on wild turkey ecology. Then it will continue outdoors as participants will take a caravan drive to observe the birds on the battlefield. These programs are scheduled on Monday, Nov. 21 and Thursday, Dec. 1 at 4 p.m. For more information please contact the Shiloh Battlefield at 731- 689-5275 or visit www.nps.gov/shil or Facebook at www.facebook.com/ShilohNMP or Twitter at twitter.com/#!/shilohnps.
I’m thankful for all of the outdoor sporting opportunities I’ve had over the years, and admittedly it’s hard to say which of the sports gave me the most memorable experiences. But perhaps, if I had to choose one that sticks out, quail hunting with family and friends would rank close to the top. A good portion of my quail hunting was done with my good friend Reggie and his dad’s bird dog, Nudge. We walked many a miles and took an untold number of birds with that dog. The only thing I didn’t like was the final tally at the end of a hunt. We were highly competitive against one another, and Reggie almost always took more birds than me. It’s too bad quail populations are not as strong now as they were back then. Reggie may have been a die-hard hunter and a crack shot, but I believe I could teach him a lesson or two with the shotgun I’ve got now. But even before I was old enough to carry a gun on my own, I would tag along and follow behind my dad and other relatives on their hunts. Watching the dogs start acting birdie as they closed in on making a point, all the while being instructed with the words “ careful and woe “ from the voice of their master and then slowly moving in for the flush, was an exhilarating experience that has stuck with me all these years. Thanksgiving Day quail hunts were extra special. Relatives would come in from Texas and go with us on a morning hunt, and then we would all come back and have a big
family gettogether Thanksgiving dinner afterwards. What could be better David than a table Green spread with all your Outdoors f a v o r i t e dishes and a hunt with relatives you haven’t seen in a while? Those good ole days are long gone and the quail populations are not near what they once were either, but there is one thing that hasn’t changed. Quail season still opens on Thanksgiving Day. The Mississippi statewide bobwhite quail season opens on Nov. 24 and goes through March 3. There is a daily bag limit of eight birds, and hunters should make sure their hunting licenses are current and always review applicable regulations before hunting. Several public lands around the state offer quail hunting opportunities, but as one might expect, hunters should be prepared to put in some time to find birds. “Some of the best places to find quail during the hunting season are in or near thicker cover patches or edges associated with agricultural lands and upland forests with a grassy ground cover component,” said Dave Godwin, Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks small game program coordinator. “We believe the quail hatch has been fair to good where local habitat conditions are favorable. However, high quality hab-
itat is often limited.” Sportsmen have seen the decline in quail populations throughout much of their range, and biologists suggest the primary cause of the decline has been loss of habitat due to changes in land use and management. The declining use of prescribed fire as a land management tool is said to have also contributed to the loss of quail habitat. However, a national effort among states is now underway to restore quail populations to levels found in the early 1980s. Anyone wishing to seek more information on the National Bobwhite Conservation Initiative can log onto www.bringbackbobwhites.org MDWFP biologists are working relentlessly to reverse this trend by improving habitat on public and private lands. “Quail habitat quality on agricultural and upland forest lands can be improved with appropriate management practices. We have to provide suitable habitat on adequate scales to provide sustainable hunting opportunities though,” said Rick Hamrick, MDWFP small game biologist.

Giant mound of tires Republicans seek Iowa visible from space social conservatives’ nod BY MEG KINNARD Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S.C. — The sprawling pile of hundreds of thousands of tires isn’t easy to spot from the ground, sitting in a rural South Carolina clearing accessible by only a circuitous dirt path that winds through thick patches of trees. No one knows how all those tires got there, or when. But, Calhoun County Council Chairman David Summers says of this giant rubber menace, “You can see it from space.” Authorities have charged one person in connection with the mess of roughly 250,000 tires, which covers more than 50 acres on satellite images. And now a Florida company is helping haul it all away. Litter control officer Boyce Till said he contacted the local sheriff and state health department, which is investigating who had been dumping the tires. But the worst possible penalty that could be imposed locally? A single $475 ticket for littering. Records show the property is owned by Michael
Keitt Jr. of Far Rockaway, N.Y. A phone number for Keitt could not be found, but local officials said the man was one of several heirs to the property, all of whom live out of state. As part of the state Department of Health and Environmental Control’s case, a state grand jury issued indictments against George Fontella Brown, 39, of Easley, on three charges of violating the state’s solid waste act, according to DHEC spokesman Adam Myrick. Those state charges carry much heftier possible penalties, including thousands of dollars in fines and up to a year in jail. Myrick would not discuss details of the case against Brown, and a spokesman for state Attorney General Alan Wilson did not respond to messages. No working phone listing could be found for Brown, who also faces similar charges in Greenville and Orangeburg counties, and court records did not list an attorney for him. Tire dumping has historically been a problem in Calhoun County and other
rural areas, said Summers, who recalled another giant tire pile in the 1990s that would dwarf the current monstrosity. “This tire pile here is a baby compared to what that one was,” said Summers, who previously worked for a company that ended up shredding those used tires. South Carolina retailers charge motorists $2 for every new tire they buy, which helps pay for the cleanup and recycling of old tires. But Summers said many tires never make it to recycling plants, instead being discarded and growing into gargantuan piles. For now, a Jacksonville, Fla.-based tire processing company is working to clear the pile. Tricia Johnson, owner of Lee Tire Company, Inc., said a property owner whom she declined to name called her for help hauling off the material. So far, Johnson said between 10 and 15 tractor-trailer loads of tires have been shipped to her Florida facility. There, they will either have oil and steel extracted from them, or they will be shredded and made into tire-derived fuel.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Most of the Republican presidential candidates, with the notable exception of Mitt Romney, set their sights on early-voting Iowa for a discussion on the role of religious faith in public life, along with hot-button social issues such as marriage and abortion. The setting was a forum Saturday night hosted by a new evangelical group trying to leave its mark on the campaign in a state where influential social conservatives have struggled to rally behind an alternative to Romney. While the former Massachusetts governor has stayed near

the top of national polls, some Republican activists have misgivings about his record on cultural issues. Romney’s six more socially conservative challenges are actively competing in Iowa to emerge as the preferred candidate among Christian conservatives with just six weeks to go until the Jan. 3 caucuses. “People are getting close to decision time,” former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum told The Associated Press at a campaign stop in Des Moines. “I think you’re going to see some coalescing in the next couple of weeks.” Jobs, the economy and the deficit are voter priorities in Iowa and nation-

Scheduled to join Santorum were Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, businessman Herman Cain, former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Texas Rep. Ron Paul and Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Romney declined the invitation and was campaigning in New Hampshire. He is not competing aggressively for the social conservative vote in Iowa as he did in the 2008 presidential race.

Parents must support abused daughter DEAR ABBY: Late last winter, a sheriff called to tell me that my daughter “Amy” had been found standing, bruised and battered, on a street corner in upstate New York. Her arm had been broken. He was convinced that the man she was living with had beaten her and kicked her outside to freeze. Her sister (my other daughter) paid to put her up in a hotel for the night. My husband and I were convinced early on in this relationship that this monster was determined to have us support him financially, because he would leave us long, threatening messages demanding money, or else our daughter would be “homeless.” Amy moved back in
with him, and I heard from her sister that the creep was bringing other Abigail women Van Buren home for sex. It Dear Abby raised my hopes that Amy would give up on him. Instead, she became pregnant. Now Amy is hurt that I don’t call her and share in this exciting event. When I try to explain how I feel, she tells me, “It’s not about you, Mom.” She’s right. It’s about the baby. I am ashamed to not be able to change this baby’s future. What can I do? — PARALYZED WITH FEAR OUT WEST
DEAR PARALYZED: Make every effort to prevent your daughter and grandchild from becoming isolated from your family. Some abusers deliberately impregnate their victims in order to keep them dependent. Keep the contact and the conversation going, so that when Amy finally realizes that her boyfriend is a danger not only to her but also to her baby, she can come to you for help. DEAR ABBY: We have two children, ages 9 and 6, and live in Northern California. We’ll be traveling to Southern California soon to attend my cousin’s wedding. We’ll be staying with my parents.
My three unmarried adult siblings will be coming from out-of-state to attend the wedding. My brother “Ray” is a clear favorite with my kids. He visits often and showers them with attention, gifts and outings. He loves them dearly, but when he’s around he consumes all of their attention. I feel bad for my parents and other siblings — especially my sister, who doesn’t get to see them often and feels she can’t compete with the gifts and rough-house gameplaying. Do you have any suggestions for how I might temper the kids’ enthusiasm for Uncle Ray on this trip, so others get to have meaningful bonding time with their nephew and niece, whom they
rarely see? — MARILYN IN SAN FRANCISCO DEAR MARILYN: Enlist Ray’s help with this and start talking with your children now about the special relationships you had with your parents and your siblings while growing up. Share funny stories, which will make them more “real” to the kids. Talk about the qualities that make each of your family members special, and be sure to mention how much your parents and all your siblings care about them. Then arrange in advance one or more activities they can enjoy together that do not include Ray. That would be some steps in
the right direction. DEAR ABBY: What would you say is the difference between a friendship and an emotional affair? — UNHAPPY WIFE IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR UNHAPPY WIFE: A friendship is a relationship in which the spouse feels included. An emotional affair is one during which the spouse writes to Dear Abby and signs her question “Unhappy.” 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.
Elderly lady contributes history from her home Special to the Daily Corinthian
Local homemaker Lucille Jowers of Tishomingo desired to do something special to help generate funds for the restoration of the historic Burnsville One-Room Colored School. Jowers, a former member of the Midway Homemakers Club, spent a week with her aunt in Indiana several years ago while her husband, Marvin, a truck driver, was working. During that time, she learned to piece quilts. Her first quilt was a “drunkard’s path,” and by
request, her second quilt was the same design but with different colors. Her quilts are located in Germany and Washington, D.C., as well as other parts of the world. Due to her health, Jowers can no longer attend homemaker meetings, but she was pleased to create this beautiful “Flower Garden” quilt top as a contribution to her
county. The Tishomingo County Historical & Genealogical Society is seeking a quilter for the queen/king hand-sewn quilt top and hope that some others — people or organizations — will assist in quilting the beautifully crafted top created by Jowers. Interested participants should contact Cindy Nelson at 662-279-1798.

‘Happy Feet’ won’t be the sequel of your dreams BY KENNETH TURAN
Happy Feet Two
Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES — It’s hard to resist dancing penguins, but “Happy Feet Two” may make you want to try. Though it features tens of thousands of Antarctic types toetapping their way across the screen, it doesn’t have a clear idea of what else it wants them to do. George Miller returns to direct and co-write the sequel to “Happy Feet,” but the clean, focused story line of a penguin born to dance that won the first film the best animated feature Oscar in 2006 has not found its equal here. Instead “Happy Feet Two” hopes the things it does well — like making all those penguins dance with as much precision as the Rockettes — will encourage audiences to
MPAA rating: PG for rude humor and mild peril Running time: 1 hour, 39 minutes Playing: In general release overlook how random and haphazard its narrative is, the way it jolts along from one episode to the next without providing anything that convincingly ties the pieces together. Perhaps sensing that this randomness is a problem, “Happy Feet Two” begins with a mission statement that sounds suspiciously like an apology for a lack of focus: “Everything in this world, no matter how big, no matter how small,
is connected in ways we never expect.” Returning to the sequel from the first film is Mumble (voiced by Elijah Wood), the misunderstood penguin who danced when all the others sang. Now he and mate Gloria (Alecia Moore, otherwise known as Pink) are parents themselves, and Mumble has to deal with Erik (Ava Acres), a tiny son who has self-expression problems similar to his dad’s. Back as well is Ramon (Robin Williams), the amorously inclined Adelie penguin who has been spending time with Mumble and his fellow emperors. Fed up with his romantic prospects, he decides to return home, unaware that Erik and two pals are going to tag along for the ride.
Things back home, however, are not the way Ramon left them. Yes, the wacky, sweater-wearing Lovelace (Williams again) is still around, but the animal in charge is now a certain Sven, who by all appearances is that rare penguin who knows how to fly. As voiced by the irrepressible Hank Azaria, Sven is this film’s most inspired creation. He’s a self-help guru who actually believes himself when he says things like, “If you want it, you must will it. If you will it, it will be yours.” But as entertaining as Sven is, the film’s plot hasn’t come up with a character arc for him that is effective all the way through to the end. If Sven is largely a success, the same can’t be said about the other ad-
ditions to the film’s cast, a pair of krill named Will and Bill. Tired of being at the bottom of the food chain, these tiny bug-eyed crustaceans get delusions of grandeur and attempt to become predators, with results that are lamentable rather than amusing. Even casting Brad Pitt and Matt Damon in the roles doesn’t help. “Happy Feet Two’s” main story strand has Mumble, who has left emperor land to retrieve his son, return only to find that the entire emperor colony has been cut off from the rest of the world by a wall of solid ice. The remainder of the film is taken up by various attempts to set everyone free, a rather repetitive endeavor. But even though “Happy Feet Two” is not the
sequel of your dreams, it has more than Sven to offer as entertainment. For one thing, the franchise’s eclectic taste in soundtrack music remains intact and includes such diverse items as TV’s “Rawhide” theme, the Queen/David Bowie “Under Pressure,” early rock gem “Papa Oom Mow Mow” and a penguin version of a beloved classic from Puccini’s “Tosca.” Watching all those penguins dance does remain fun as well, and the film’s expansive 3-D look creates dizzying Antarctic vistas, often filled with penguins spread out as far as the eye can see. But dazzling panoramas, no matter how impressive, are no substitute for the involving story “Happy Feet Two” has had to do without.
‘Woody Allen: A Documentary’ premieres Sunday on PBS BY MARY MCNAMARA Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES — Six years ago, when Woody Allen’s “Match Point” debuted at the Cannes Film Festival, the news conference that followed the media screening was, to put it mildly, a zoo. After a string of box office and even critical failures, Allen seemed to have lost his way; “Match Point” was his renaissance. So reporters from all around the world (including, at the time, me) were happy to stuff themselves into a small room if it meant a chance to sit before the phoenix risen and ask him questions about life, death, love and art. Allen, though gracious and amusing in his replies, refused to be court-
ed as a sage, answering instead as filmmaker. He spoke of budgets, tax incentives, weather, accents and the nuts and bolts of storytelling, a master craftsman addressing an audience that appeared to be seeking something closer to the Messiah. Allen waxes a bit more philosophical in Robert Weide’s “Woody Allen: A Documentary,” which premieres its first of two installments Sunday on PBS’ “American Masters,” but not much. Broader, certainly — Weide, an Oscar-nominated documentarian and Emmywinning director and executive producer on HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” spent a year and a half interviewing Allen, taking him from his earli-
est memories through the latest hit, “Midnight in Paris.” The result is more omnibus than revelation, but then it is difficult to imagine a true revelation from or about Allen at this point. Although much is made of his shyness — he famously skipped the Oscars until the broadcast that ran just after the attacks of 9/11 — he has become something of a cinematic essayist, offering the world his thoughts and opinions on an annual basis through film. From the time he began submitting jokes to newspaper columnists in the 1950s, Allen’s work has been if not perpetually autobiographical then certainly consistently per-
Horoscopes Sunday, November 20 BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Creators Syndicate
As the 2011 Scorpio solar journey winds down to a close, a kind of review process begins. Have you changed in the ways you intended to? Is there something more you could do to reinforce the change if it has happened or trigger it if it hasn’t? A square of the sun and Neptune adds a sense of urgency to these ideas. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have a white-hot burning desire to accomplish a certain goal. You will do whatever it takes for as long as it takes to bring this outcome into being. You are, in short, driven. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You probably already know that your sign can be stubborn about learning from others. When you have a mentor you really trust, the only sensible thing to do is let go of your defenses and learn all you can. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have a talent for noticing big obstacles ahead and steering to avoid them. It’s the small obstacles and unanticipated problems that could bog you down now if you let them. Stay positive, and you’ll keep moving ahead. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Whatever happened in the past, leave it there. You are what you make of yourself. Remember that you’re in charge, and don’t let other people or circumstances determine your destiny. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You give your love wholeheartedly. That could be overwhelming for certain people. Not everyone knows how to open up to love. Be patient, and try to give your
attention in easily acceptable doses. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As you deal with loved ones, it may occur to you that there has got to be a better way to communicate. The secret is in vicinity and eye contact. Whenever possible, be close and connected to one another. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll decide that your expressions need to be heard. What you wear and how you carry yourself will be as much a part of that expression as what you say, write and present. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Drop your uncertainty about the future. You can be sure that you’ll rise to the occasion because said “occasion” is one that you have been thinking, wishing and dreaming about for ages. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). To some extent, this day is a study in contrast: the poor against the rich, the infantile next to the wise. You’ll be prompted to form some kind of conclusion from all that plays out before you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You feel a responsibility to make people happy. Start with yourself. Ultimately, you’re the only one you can really control. But if you can do that, you’ll strongly influence others to enjoy life. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Someone will do a good deed for you that is kind of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, you enjoy the perk. On the other, your impetus to return the favor is quite substantial. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). What you are called on to handle today is not the same old crisis of the past. It’s something new and exciting. You’ll have to release the past in order to see this for the opportunity it really is.
Cryptoquip
sonal. As fine a work as “Woody Allen: A Documentary” is, it does raise the question of why the public always seems to need more than the work of its artists, even those who so transparently offer their essential selves through that work. Though silver-haired and perhaps a trifle jowly at 75, Allen is as he ever was — wry, self-deprecating and given much more easily to questions than answers. “Midnight in Paris” may be steeped in nostalgia and sentiment, but the man who made it is not. Allen is still very much a filmmaker and discusses his work, past, present and future, in tactile realities. Ever since the agents
he sought to represent his writing persuaded him to begin performing as well, Allen has wobbled, Chaplin-like, along the narrow but comedically fertile border between self-obsession and self-loathing, thereby creating the 20th century’s most famous Everyman. In his 60-year career, Allen has made more than 40 films, which is simply too big an output for the conventional definition of artiste. Which he never claimed to be. An auteur, yes. An artiste, no. And that is the creature that Weide manages to capture. Given context by film critics and academics, fleshed out by a host of Allen stars, (including muses Diane Keaton and former wife Louise
Lasser) and arrayed in anecdote by intimates (including manager Jack Rollins, cinematographer Gordon Willis, and cowriters Mickey Rose and Marshall Brickman), Allen emerges as a man who defied every expectation save his own. Allen makes movies to please himself, moving from screwball comedies such as “Bananas” to the character-driven pathos of “Annie Hall” to the darker tones of “Interiors” and “Crimes and Misdemeanors.” Not all of his movies have been great, or even good, but as Mariel Hemingway says, when you make as many movies as Allen does, there are going to be a few clunkers.

I, Joel Vann, seek clemency from the State of Mississippi for the drinking and driving fatality of Scott Plunk that I was responsible for on October 14, 1995. Although I have served all sentencing requirements imposed upon me by our legal system, I will never forget the pain I have caused his family. I do not drink, and I have not been arrested or involved in any crime prior to or since this tragic accident. I cannot erase the pain and sorrow that I caused many in the community as a foolish 18-year-old, but I hope that the remainder of my life can be used for good. Through Young Life Ministries I have counseled teenage boys on the consequences of drinking and drug use while mentoring them in their Christian faith. I Office humbly ask for clemency. 3 BR, 2 BA, CHA, lg. yard, 1 BAY SHOP for rent If you have objections to this Box Chapel a r e a . w/small apt. $400 mo., request, you may call $89,900. 662-287-9941. 601-576-3520. $400 dep. 287-6752.
