State budget writers’ plan would tap reservesBy Emily Wagster PettusThe Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi could deplete a big portion of its financial reserves during the budget year that begins
July 1.Legislative leaders agreed
Wednesday on a preliminary estimate of how much the state might spend.
The $5.4 billion budget esti-mate includes nearly $88 mil-
lion from the state’s rainy day fund and $56.2 million from a health care trust fund. That’s about half the balance for each of those two funds.
Even as they continue to draw on financial reserves,
budget writers say they’re still likely to cut funding for many state services because revenue remains anemic as the economy slowly recovers.
Democratic Rep. Steve Hol-land of Plantersville said
taking millions of dollars from the rainy day fund and the health care trust fund will help mitigate the cuts.

VWSD boss aims to update strategic planBy Pamela [email protected]
Finding out what’s already right with Vicksburg schools and coming up with ideas to make them better are items high on Dr. Elizabeth Duran Swinford’s to-do list.
On the heels of three com-munity forums the Vicks-burg Warren School District
superintendent held earlier this month to receive input from parents and commu-
nity members, her monthly school leadership meeting had the same focus: the good
things happening in the dis-trict, the opportunities that exist for improvement and the characteristics of an ideal school district.
“What we are hoping will come out of this is a strategic plan that will drive every-thing we do,” Swinford told the group of about 25 meet-
Group looking to getQueen rolling againBy Manivanh [email protected]
A startup investment group in Cincinnati is working to buy the docked Delta Queen sternwheel steamboat and put it back on the river.
Save the Delta Queen 2010 announced Wednesday plans to buy the 84-year-old vessel
from its current owners, Seattle-based Ambassadors International, which put the vessel up for sale in 2008 after its river trips ceased. The boat has been operating as a floating boutique hotel in Chattanooga, Tenn., since 2009.
Cases workedby convictedlaw enforcerto be droppedBy Pamela [email protected]
The conviction of a former Warren County deputy after a recent jury trial has rendered a number of criminal cases in which he was the lead investigator “unprosecut-able,” court documents show.
London Williams, 40, 4425 Nailor Road, was found guilty of incest Nov. 2 after a two-day trial in Warren County Circuit Court. Williams had been an investigator with the sheriff’s department from January 2008 until June, his second stint with the department, and had held other local law enforce-ment positions going back to 2003.
“Unfortunately, due to the nature of the convic-tion and the information we have about the results of his polygraph, we can’t put London Williams on the stand as a credible witness,” said Assistant District Attorney Dewey Arthur. “The credibility of law enforcement is critical to these cases. We have no choice.”
Arthur said numerous cases will be affected. But prosecutors, with a heavy trial schedule in recent weeks, do not yet have an exact number.
In court Nov. 9, Circuit Judge Isadore Patrick granted motions from the district attorney to drop prosecution of two Vicksburg men accused of armed robbery and con-spiracy to commit a felony.

In a special called meeting Wednesday, the Vicksburg Board of Mayor and Alder-men, in the absence of South Ward Alderman Sid Beauman, agreed to apply for funding to upgrade the city’s fluoridation equipment.
Public Works Director Bubba Rainer said the Mis-sissippi State Department of Health notified city officials earlier this week of funding available to communities with
equipment that is at least 15 years old — and Vicksburg qualifies.
If granted, the health depart-ment will evaluate the city’s current equipment and install a new system at no cost, Rainer said. Installation would likely be complete by Aug. 31.
Fluoride is added to the public water supply to help reduce tooth decay.
The board is scheduled to meet next at 10 a.m. Wednesday.
CulkinAbout 50 customers from
5469 Rawhide Road to 13691 Youngton Road, as well as all customers along Bovina Cut-off, Duncan and Cindy roads, are urged to boil their drink-ing water, Culkin Water Dis-
trict officials said. Also, the district has lifted
a boil water alert for custom-ers from Redwood Elemen-tary on Redwood Road to the Yazoo Valley Power Asso-ciation on Mississippi 3, and from 3260 Ballground Road to the Warren County line.
A public bid accepted by the State of Mississippi for Green Acres Memorial Park included a 30 percent dis-count on memorials, open-ing charges and vaults for customers who had to pay a second time for those items due to the cemetery’s finan-
cial situation, owner Harry Sharp said. Information in a Wednesday story was incomplete.

putting lipstick and perfume on a starving sow,” Holland said Wednesday. “It’s not pretty.”
The rainy day fund was created in the early 1990s to provide a financial cushion when money is tight. The health care trust fund was created in the late 1990s after Mississippi settled a mas-sive lawsuit against tobacco companies.
Republican Gov. Haley Bar-bour unveiled his proposed budget earlier this week, also recommending dipping into financial reserves.
Barbour proposes 8 per-
cent spending cuts for most state programs. Universi-ties and community colleges would see cuts of about 3 percent. While funding for elementary and secondary schools would remain about the same, Barbour proposes skipping the annual “step” pay raises teachers receive for gaining more experience in the classroom.
The 14-member Joint Leg-islative Budget Committee is to meet again Dec. 8 to adopt a first, broad outline of rec-ommendations for how much money each state program could receive next fiscal year.
Creek — plus 17 other hos-tages that were being held in Nigeria’s oil-rich southern delta, a negotiator said.
The negotiator, who spoke on condition of anonym-ity, said the operation freed seven expatriate workers kidnapped Nov. 8 from an oil rig working an offshore field for London-based Afren PLC. Another seven Nige-rian hostages came from an attack carried out Sunday on an Exxon Mobil Corp. rig nearby. The origin of the remaining hostages remained unclear. Others kidnapped included work-ers for construction company
Julius Berger Nigeria PLC.An Afren spokesman
declined to comment Wednesday night, and offi-cials with Exxon Mobil did not return a phone call. The two Mississippi men were working on the Afren rig.
Another Mississippi man, 58-year-old James “Butch” Johnson of Pass Christian was shot in the Nov. 8 attack and was recovering in a London hospital. He also works for Afren.
Robertson’s mother, Brenda Robertson, said her family was celebrating the news. She said her 47-year-old son, the father of four children,
had warned his family about the possibility of danger.
“He said, ‘Mama, don’t worry because all they want is money and they’ll take care of us,”’ Brenda Robert-son said. “I gave it over to God and he took care of it.”
James’ brother-in-law, Frank Vaughn, said the family had received a call, but had few other details.
“We feel great,” he said. Transocean spokesman Guy Cantwell said the company was glad its employees were on their way home. Trans-ocean is the largest offshore drilling contractor in the world.
A Vicksburg man was in the Warren County Jail this morning accused of attempted carjacking, Sheriff Martin Pace said.
Travis James Flowers, 23, 1804 Heather Drive, is accused of trying to drag a woman from her car on Old Jackson Road around 11 a.m. Wednesday.
Flowers was riding with a male relative in a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria when they began arguing, Pace said. The relative, who was driv-ing, stopped the car and Flowers got out, ran to the car behind them and tried to pull the driver out. But she was wearing a seatbelt, Pace said, and Flowers couldn’t budge her. The male rela-
tive jumped out of the Crown Vic, the sheriff said, and tried to help the woman. Flowers then tried to enter the wom-an’s car again, through the passenger door, but it was locked, Pace said.
Flowers fled on foot, and deputies arrested him on his home street, Heather Drive, about an hour later. He was being held without bond pending an initial court hearing.
1 arrested, 1 on runin burglary attempt
A Vicksburg teen was arrested and police were
looking for another after an attempted burglary around noon Wednesday, police Lt. Bobby Stewart said.
Officers were called to a home in the 300 block of Enchanted Drive and, when they arrived, the teens ran into the woods, Stewart said.
A couple of hours later, police arrested a 13-year-old boy at Sherwood Drive and Shady Lane and charged him with attempted residential burglary. The teen has been released to his parents. The other teen, Stewart said, is an 18-year-old boy.
Enchanted Drive is in Enchanted Hills, a subdivi-sion off Wisconsin Avenue that formed a Neighborhood Watch program after a rash
of burglaries.
Deputy’s stop jailsone on pot charge
A Vicksburg teen was arrested around 2:30 p.m. Tuesday and charged with possession of pot with intent to sell, said Sheriff Martin Pace.
Maverick Wigley, 19, 103 Smith Road, was pulled over for ignoring a stop sign at U.S. 61 North and Culkin Road, Pace said. A deputy saw pot in the ashtray and searched the car. Found in the console of the 2003 Ford Focus was 1/2 ounce of mari-juana divided among five bags, as well as an electronic scale.
Wigley was released from the Warren County Jail Wednesday night on $2,500 bond.
City man chargedwith embezzlement
A Vicksburg man was arrested Wednesday and charged with embezzlement, police Lt. Bobby Stewart said.
Samuel Perry, 31, 94 Walton Lane, is accused of taking $706 from Big Lots Discount Store on South Frontage Road. The arrest stems from an investigation dating to Oct. 14, Stewart said.
Perry was released from the Issaquena County Jail on $2,500 bond.

Bond at $1.5M each for Southern Miss shootings suspectsHATTIESBURG (AP) —
Bond has been set at $1.5 million each for two people arrested as accessories in the shooting of three University of Southern Mississippi football players outside a Hattiesburg nightclub early Sunday.
Cleothus Wilkerson, 25, and Patricia L. Brown, 49, both of Bassfield, appeared Wednes-day in Forrest County Justice Court.
Judge George Schmidt set their bond at $500,000 on each of three counts of accessory after the fact to aggravated assault — for a total of $1.5 million bond for each. The two were returned to the For-rest County jail after the brief hearing.
No trial date has been set. Court officials said they
did not know if the two had attorneys.
Authorities were still look-ing for Travis Brown, origi-nally of Prentiss but listing a Purvis address, who is wanted on three counts of aggravated assault. He is Patricia Brown’s son, reports have said.
Meanwhile, Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree said Tuesday the city is suspend-ing the operating license of Remington’s Hunt Club.
Martez Smith, 22, of Canton, Tim Green, 21, of Columbia, S.C., and Deddrick Jones, 23, of Bastrop, La., were shot in the parking lot after the club closed. The three players remain hospitalized.
Hattiesburg police have said officers were called to the club 129 times between January
and September of this year. No arrests were made as a result of those calls.
DuPree said the license sus-pension will be in effect for 30 days. It will not affect other businesses in the area.
The club’s owner has 10 days to appeal and request a hear-ing with the city council.
“Martez (Smith) is para-lyzed right now from the waist down,” football coach Larry Fedora said Tuesday. “We are hopeful that that may change one day in the future.”
A person speaking to the AP on the condition of ano-nymity Tuesday said that Smith’s spinal cord is sev-ered, and that Green was shot in the neck and Jones in the chest.

Journalist: Cops orderedno photos of burned body
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A news photographer who wit-nessed some of the aftermath of a deadly police shooting in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina testified Wednesday that he was ordered by an offi-cer not to pho-tograph the vic-tim’s body.
Alex Brandon was working for the Times-Picayune news-paper when he said he walked up to a make-shift police headquarters at a school and saw the body of 31-year-old Henry Glover, who had been shot.
Glover’s charred remains were later found in the back seat of a burned car, and five former and current police officers are being tried in Glover’s death and an alleged cover-up. The shooting happened on Sept. 2, 2005, four days after Hurricane Katrina passed and flooding from failed levees plunged the city into chaos.
Brandon, who now works for The Associated Press in Wash-ington, said he was ordered by one of the current defendants, Officer Greg McRae, not to take any photographs of the body or a confrontation between police and the three men who brought Glover’s body to the site for medical care.
“It was, for lack of a better term, an order,” Brandon said.
Former Officer David Warren is charged with shooting Glover outside a strip mall. Lt. Dwayne Scheuermann and McRae are accused of beating the people who tried to get medical help for Glover and later burning his body in a car. Former Lt. Robert Italiano and Lt. Travis McCabe are accused of falsifying a report to make it appear Glov-er’s shooting was justified.
Brandon also testified that he was friends with Warren from
firearms training classes they both taught. About a year after Katrina, Brandon said Warren mentioned he had shot some-body who approached him in a car while he was guarding a police station after Katrina.
Prosecu-tors have said Glover wasn’t armed and didn’t pose a threat when Warren shot him.
Brandon said he suggested to Warren that the person he shot could have been the same person he saw at the school.
“A n d h e said, ‘Maybe so,” ’ Bran-don recalled, adding that Warren told him he had been cleared of the shooting.
Brandon said he didn’t see
police beat any of the three men who brought Glover to the site, but the photographer said he had been concerned for the men’s safety because it appeared to be a “volatile situation.”
“I felt like the guys on the ground were very smart-alecky,” he said, referring to the three men who were hand-cuffed by police.
Although Brandon followed Officer McRae’s orders not to take any photographs of the scene, a federal agent who was with Brandon did. Photos by David Millen, then an agent for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, are being used as evidence in the trial.

Landrieu won’t budge on White House pickU.S. senator says new rules needed for offshore drilling
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu said Wednesday the Obama admin-istration needs to make new rules for offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico more clear before she will stop block-ing the nomination of the White House’s federal budget director.
In September, Landrieu, D-La., blocked the nomination of Jacob Lew to head the Office of Management and Budget to protest the administration’s six-month moratorium on deepwater oil and gas drilling in the Gulf. Even though the moratorium was lifted Oct. 12, Landrieu said she remained displeased with new rules for drilling operations.
The new drilling rules are meant to prevent another cata-strophic blowout like the April 20 explosion at a BP oil well off the Louisiana coast that led to the release of more than 200 million gallons of crude.
The new rules focus on making sure blowout preven-ters work properly. In the case of the BP explosion, the blow-out preventer failed to shut off the leaking well as it was designed to. Also, the new rules require companies to
be prepared for worst-case oil spill scenarios.
But Landrieu said she would continue to block Lew’s nom-ination until the Interior Department fixes “the regu-latory nightmare” hindering deepwater drilling. She said companies were struggling to interpret what the new rules required.
“I’m not asking to be easy on the oil and gas companies, I’m not asking to give blan-ket permits, I’m asking for clarity of the new regulatory regime,” Landrieu said during a teleconference with report-ers upon her return from a trip to the Netherlands, where she looked for lessons to take home to Louisiana from the Dutch model of living below sea level.
“I understand that it is
important for this country to have a budget director, but this industry is probably the most important, and the most important economic driver, in all of Louisiana,” Landrieu said.
“We are asking for clarity, transparency and a statement of support for this industry,” Landrieu said of the Obama administration. “So far that hasn’t been completely delivered.”
Since the moratorium was lifted, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regu-lation and Enforcement has not approved a single permit for a new deepwater well. But since June 8, the agency has approved 14 new permits to drill in shallower waters. Shal-lower water wells also must comply with new regulations.
Melissa Schwartz, an agency spokeswoman, said the government had received only one deepwater drilling permit application for a new well since Oct. 12. “We are approving permits as expedi-tiously as is safely possible,” Schwartz said.
Lew, who also served as OMB chief during the Clinton administration, was approved by the Senate Budget Commit-tee and had appeared headed for easy confirmation by the full Senate. President Barack Obama nominated him in July after former OMB director Peter Orszag resigned.
But under Senate rules, one senator can object to a nominee or a bill advancing to the Senate floor. It takes 60 votes to overcome such an objection.
Kenneth Baer, an OMB spokesman, said he expected Lew’s nomination would reach the Senate floor soon. He declined to offer details.
“Senators from both par-ties and across the political spectrum voted overwhelm-ingly for Lew in two different Senate committees, he is emi-nently qualified for the job,” Baer said.
‘I understand that it is important for this country to have a budget director, but this industry is probably the most important, and the most important economic driver, in all of Louisiana.’

Sherman, Blue Springs to annex near Toyota plantSHERMAN (AP) — Two
northeast Mississippi towns are hoping to expand their city limits to make the most of their proximity to Toyota.
Officials with the towns of Sherman and Blue Springs said in Tupelo that they are taking steps to secure sepa-rate parcels of land near the Toyota plant.
Sherman Mayor Ben Logan said his city wants to annex 1,500 acres or roughly two square miles in portions of
Lee, Union and Pontotoc Counties.
Logan said it would be ideal for residential, commercial and industrial development.
“It will take one large devel-opment either at the Highway 9 and Highway 78 intersection or anywhere else or a residen-tial type development that will cause the flood gates to open,” Logan said.
Logan hopes to adopt an annexation ordinance by Jan-uary and get public hearings
held.He said the annexation
is important because it will enable the city to zone the areas for appropriate con-struction projects.
Neighboring Blue Springs is working on its own proposal.
“The city’s plans are in the very preliminary stages but, we need to protect this land because we might need to use it in the future,” Blue Springs Town Clerk Jan Musgrove said.
Musgrove said while dis-cussions continue, the town would want to have land close to the Toyota plant among other areas.
The Toyota plant at Blue Springs is scheduled to open in the fall of 2011 to build Corolla sedans. Toyota has said the plant will have about 2,000 employees once it hits full operation in 2012.
Louisiana abortion clinics sue over state lawBATON ROUGE (AP) — A
third challenge to Louisiana’s new abortion-clinic laws was filed Wednesday in Baton Rouge federal court.
Five abortion clinics in Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Metai-rie and Bossier City allege in their civil suit that state regu-latory officials now can shut them down for any alleged vio-lation before they can appeal that decision.
“Unlike a hospital and some other licensed medical facili-ties, an outpatient abortion facility no longer has the right to a suspensive appeal,” the plaintiffs claim in their lawsuit assigned to U.S. District Judge James J. Brady.
“Thus, if the outpatient abor-tion facility files an adminis-trative appeal, it will still be deprived of its license, cannot operate, and cannot generate
revenue to avoid bankruptcy during the pendency of the appeal,” the plaintiffs alleged.
Attorneys for the clinics said in the suit the new law violates the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution “by treat-ing outpatient abortion facili-ties differently than all other medical facilities.”
The suit was filed by Delta Clinic of Baton Rouge; Choice Inc. of Texas, doing business as Causeway Medical Clinic in Metairie; Bossier City Medical Suite Inc. in Bossier City; and
two New Orleans clinics, Mid-town Medical LLC and Wom-en’s Health Care Center Inc.
A sixth plaintiff is a physi-cian identified only as John Doe, M.D.
The same clinics and a sixth in Shreveport, Hope Medical Group for Women, sued the state in August over two other alleged unconstitutional ele-ments of Louisiana’s new abor-tion laws.
One of those laws bans abor-tion doctors from participation in a state-run medical malprac-tice fund available to physicians
who do not perform abortions, the clinics allege in that pend-ing suit.
The clinics also allege in that suit that another new law unconstitutionally requires women about to undergo abor-tions to have ultrasound exami-nations and receive notice that they are entitled to photo-graphs of those images.
Chief U.S. District Judge Ralph E. Tyson initially granted a temporary restraining order against enforcement of those two new laws.
But Tyson dissolved that order a week later after both sides agreed that state offi-cials must provide the affected women with a list of facilities that provide free ultrasound services. Both sides also agreed the women cannot be compelled to receive an ultra-sound image.
Attorneys for the clinics said in the suit the new law violates the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment to the U.S. Constitution ‘by treating outpatient abortion facilities differently than all other
medical facilities.’

Instead of waging nonstop war over Obamacare, Republicans and Democrats should fix it — and a Democratic governor has ideas about how to do it.
Phil Bredesen, a former health care executive who’s finishing eight years as governor of Tennes-see, saved his state from Medicaid-induced bankruptcy and emerged as a critic of the health care reform bill that his party and president pushed through Congress this year.
He’s written a book, “Fresh Medi-cine: How to Fix Reform and Build a Sustainable Health Care System,” that could form the basis of a bipar-tisan rewrite of Obamacare.
As matters now stand, Republi-cans plan to try to repeal the 2010 health reform law, which President Barack Obama will veto.
Then, the GOP will try to defund or otherwise block aspects of its implementation, creating more of the uncertainty that Republicans say the plan has caused for strug-gling businesses.
And the battle is likely to go on into and through the 2012 elections — possibly with no resolution even then.
Bredesen’s plan has aspects that
should appeal to both parties. For Democrats, it’s universal and com-prehensive, guaranteeing basic health care for everyone, financed through a trust fund akin to Social Security.
For Republicans, it includes vouchers, offers free choice of health care plans, replaces Medi-care and Medicaid, and limits medi-cal malpractice awards.
And, for both parties (and the country), it saves lots and lots of money — $4 trillion in the year that the plan is fully in place and $25 trillion over a 15-year implementa-tion period, assuming health care spending is reduced from the pres-ent 17 percent of gross domestic product and capped at 14 percent.
There are controversial elements to it, for sure — a legislated ceiling on how much the plan can cost and a steeply progressive set of taxes to pay for it, including a 20 per-cent payroll tax up to $500,000 of income and a 10 percent income tax surcharge.
Moreover, the government would have to borrow $6 trillion to $7 tril-lion over 15 years to provide seed capital for the trust fund.
But Bredesen contends that, for average Americans, the taxes would cost less than they pay in lost wages for health insurance.
The borrowed money would be paid back — and the system would keep the country from going broke paying for health care.
Bredesen agrees with many Republicans that “the fundamen-tal problem with our health care system is that we have systemati-cally removed the tension between buyer and seller that makes eco-nomics work.” That is, it’s not a true market system.
Patients with insurance have no idea what any procedure costs. Pro-viders can jack up fees to the limit of an insurer’s willingness to pay. And insurers fundamentally are just intermediaries, passing costs on to employers.
In the meantime, the per capita cost of health care in the United States is double that of any other industrialized country, about 20 mil-lion people will remain uncovered even when Obama’s new law takes effect and the United States ranks 28th among developed countries in infant mortality and 16th in female life expectancy.
Bredesen wants to base reform on rigorously researching best practices, raising quality, measur-ing performance, telling consum-ers how providers rate and letting them choose which provider group they want to sign up with.
He envisions the creation of “sys-
tems of care” — the Mayo Clinic is a model — which would offer all stan-dard plan services and take respon-sibility for keeping patients healthy, not just performing (and charging for) individual procedures.
Key to the program, he told me, is to “create a world of limited resources” for health care — the only way to put market forces into play in a field where costs are now “open-ended.”
Bredesen thinks it will take 15 years to get his plan fully up and running — perhaps from 2016 to 2030 — but at the end of the pro-cess, “the result is the health care system we’ve been seeking — uni-versal, fair, high quality, reason-able in its cost, honestly paid for, uniquely American.”
Instead of wrangling incessantly over the GOP demands to “repeal and replace” Obamacare and Obama’s offer to merely “tweak” it, Congress ought to reform the reform — and call Bredesen in to help.

Democrat Gov. Bredesen offers way past health care war
“I think anyone who tries to commit suicide comes to a wall where they tried everything else and they don’t believe anything will work and they’re just done,” said John Tingley, Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran, in the short film, “A Simple Question.”
The war in Afghanistan began in 2001. The second gulf war in Iraq began in 2003. The number of U.S. casualties in those wars is easily attainable. What is less attainable is the number of veter-ans whose scars and hurts, less visible, lead them to thoughts of suicide.
The death toll on the field con-tinues as these wars slog on. Perhaps what we can remember is that for some combat veter-ans, the war never ends. And the country has a continuing obliga-tion that must be met where they are concerned.
Between 2005 and 2009, 1,100 U.S. servicemen and women
killed themselves. In fiscal year 2009, there were 1,621 suicide attempts by men and 247 by women who served in Iraq or Afghanistan, with 94 men and four women dying. Another stat we’ve come across has about 18 veteran suicides a day, though veterans who seek help through the Department of Vet-erans Affairs are less likely to be among these. And this is a figure that simply says that the VA and other organizations must redou-ble their efforts to reach all such veterans.
We know the VA and others are already doing much. The Zablocki Veterans Affairs Med-ical Center in Milwaukee, for instance, has Iraq and Afghan veteran outreach teams that make a real effort to connect vet-erans the help they need.
The Army in July 2009 launched a $50 million study of suicide and mental health of about 500,000
service members, which can have implications for veterans. But in October, the Army began what we believe is an even more important study to determine which suicide prevention pro-grams work and which don’t.
Getting this answer is crucial.It is crucial for veterans like
Tingley and others depicted in a short film that should be required viewing.
Produced by the Greater Los Angeles VA Suicide Preven-tion Program, “A Simple Ques-tion” takes a look, in two parts, at three Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans who have attempted sui-cide. They are from Los Angeles, but we’re guessing their stories could be told just about anywhere combat veterans reside.
Here’s our simple question: Will this country pull out all the stops to help veterans like these? The answer must be yes.

Q: We purchased a house last May. We really could not afford the payments at $1,300 a month. This is my first home, and a lot of mistakes were made. After a year of making payments, we received a letter saying that we will fall short on escrow, to pay for insur-
ance, taxes, etc., even though the house has been deval-ued and taxes were
supposedly dropped. We don’t care much, as we are in our 50s and plan on living here until we die. How can the pay-ments go up $288? Can we do anything? — Liz, via e-mail
A: You are in a position many have found themselves in. The escrow account that has been established by your bank was set up so that, in theory, there will be enough money at the end of next year when your insurance, taxes, etc., come due. You say your house has been “devalued,” but the tax rate very possibly has gone up. We all know that all over
the country, homeowners insurance, which includes your fire, liability, etc., has increased. It may very well be that when you bought the house in May, whoever set up the escrow account underesti-mated what these costs would be. I doubt seriously that the $288 increase you have dis-cussed is a permanent propo-sition. That may be how much is short in your account, or they may have come up with that number for a few months to bring it up to speed. First of all, find out how much your escrow account payment was from May until now. How much was put into escrow at closing? You can call your insurance agent and find out what your insurance is. It may be that you want to shop for insurance. I am wonder-ing whether you were repre-sented when you purchased this house. I ask that because your attorney should have had a heads up to what those expenses would have been. The $288 is probably a tem-porary charge to make your escrow account healthy.

‘TodAy is The beginning’
GM back on Wall Street, shedding government stakedeTRoiT (AP) — General
Motors is returning to life as a public company today with a stock offering worth poten-tially $23 billion, ending the U.S. government’s role as major-ity shareholder and closing a remarkable chapter in Ameri-can corporate history.
The U.S. government should make about $13.6 billion as GM shares start trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The fed-eral Treasury is unloading more than 400 million shares of GM, reducing its stake in the company from 61 percent to about 33 percent.
The initial public offering could wind up as the largest in history. GM set a price of $33 per common share Wednes-day, a day after it raised the number of shares it will offer to satisfy investor demand. When the U.S. government and other owners sell their shares, they’ll raise $18.2 billion. GM will raise another $5 billion by selling 100 million preferred shares at $50 each.
Together, the sale of common and preferred stock will bring the deal’s value to a record $23.2 billion.
Dan Akerson, GM’s fourth CEO in less than two years, will ring the opening bell to start the day’s trading, and they’ll honk the horn of a new Chev-rolet Camaro SS muscle car at the same time.
For Mark Reuss, GM’s North American president, the first day of trading represents a rare second chance for the company, courtesy of a $50 billion bailout from U.S. taxpayers.
It’s a chance that GM is ready to capitalize on as a new com-pany with a focus on building cars and trucks that people want to buy, Reuss said in an interview today from the floor
of the exchange.“We’ve all taken that as the
No. 1 priority, to make every-body proud of us,” he said. “There’s a lot of work to do, but today is the beginning of the new company.”
The stock offering is the latest in a series of head-spinning developments over the past two years for an American corpo-rate icon.
In September 2008, to mark its 100th birthday, the auto-maker celebrated in the grand three-story atrium on the ground floor of its Detroit headquarters.
Two months later, then-CEO Rick Wagoner found himself in front of members of Congress, begging for money to keep GM alive. Four months after that,
he was ousted by President Barack Obama.
By June 2009, GM had filed for bankruptcy. It emerged relieved of most of its debt but mostly owned by the gov-ernment and saddled with a damaging nickname: “Govern-ment Motors.” The value of its old stock was wiped out, along with $27 billion in bond value.
Now GM will become a pub-licly traded company again and revive the stock symbol “GM.” Obama on Wednesday said GM’s IPO marks a major milestone not only in the turn-around of the company, but of the U.S. auto industry as a whole.
“Supporting the American auto industry required tough decisions and shared sacri-
fices, but it helped save jobs, rescue an industry at the heart of America’s manufacturing sector, and make it more com-petitive for the future,” Aker-son said.
Most of the new stock will go to institutional investors, not to everyday investors, follow-ing a Wall Street system that rewards investment banks’ big customers. GM will set aside 5 percent of its new stock for employees, retirees and car dealers to buy at the offering price.
Early today, GM’s main joint venture partner in China, SAIC Motor Corp., said it has bought a nearly 1 percent stake in GM, buying shares being offered in the IPO at a total cost of nearly $500 million.
Stocks rise on confidencein Irish bailout, GM’s IPO
neW yoRK (AP) — Confi-dence that Ireland will work out the details for a bailout and strong interest in General Motors’ initial public offering lifted stocks today.
T h e D ow Jones indus-trial average rose nearly 120 points in early morning trading.
Markets had been roiled in recent days by fears that Ire-land would be the latest Euro-pean country to face a possi-ble default, fol-lowing Greece’s near collapse in May. But confi-dence is building that Ireland will reach a deal soon with the European Union and Interna-tional Monetary Fund to pro-vide a backstop should the country not be able to pay its outstanding debt. The EU, IMF and Irish leaders are meeting Thursday.
Ireland is also expected to accept a loan worth tens of billions of euros from Brit-ain, which is not part of the 16-nation group that uses the euro. Britain’s biggest banks are heavily invested in Irish debt, so they would face big losses if the country can’t repay its loans.
The euro rose sharply against
the dollar as traders became more comfortable with Ire-land’s debt problems. Major European stock indexes all rose more than 1 percent. Ireland is struggling because it had to
take over three major banks after the real estate market collapsed.
General Motors IPO is also drawing a lot of interest back to stocks as the market tries to bounce back from a recent retreat. The Dow has dropped six of the past eight days.
GM shares jumped more than 7 percent from their initial offering price of $33.
GM’s offering was worth $23 billion as the automaker emerged from taxpayer-funded bankruptcy.
The government’s stake in the company is being reduced from about 61 percent to 33 percent as a result of the stock offering.
The Dow jumped 117.27, or 1.1 percent, to 11,125.15 in early morning trading.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 14.08, or 1.2 percent, to 1,192.67, while the Nasdaq composite index jumped 33.23, or 1.3 percent, to 2,509.24.
GM CEO Dan Akerson is applauded after ringing the opening bell today at the New York Stock Exchange.

“Now is the time,” said Vicki Webster, spokesman for Save the Delta Queen 2010. “She (the Delta Queen) is the last remaining living connection to the past.”
Ambassadors International spokesman Vanessa Bloy said the company has been reviewing offers from poten-tial buyers, but declined to say how many. The boat is listed at $4.75 million, she said.
The Delta Queen and its sister vessel, the Missis-sippi Queen, were taken out of service from 2007 to 2008. The Delta lost its exemp-tion under the 1966 Safety of Life at Seas Act to sail with a wooden superstructure. The Mississippi was sold for scrap earlier this year to an undisclosed buyer by its owner, Windstar Cruises, part of Ambassadors Inter-national. A third steamer, the American Queen, has sat idle in Beaumont, Texas, since 2007.
The Delta’s route brought it through Vicksburg often.
“We benefited greatly from the boat stops,” said Vicks-burg Convention and Visi-tors Bureau Executive Direc-tor Bill Seratt. “They visited our museums, our restau-rants and our shops. Liter-ally, we lost hundreds, if not thousands, of visitors when it stopped operating. The Delta Queen is an American icon.”
The Delta was built in 1926, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 and designated a National Historic Land-mark in 1989.
Other companies have announced plans for river cruises.
In September, Guilford, Conn.-based American Cruise Lines said it would start offering by 2012 over-night excursions with stops in Vicksburg. Also, in June, Seattle-based Cruise West said it will restart trips on the Mississippi and its tribu-taries in March 2011 aboard its Spirit of America.
ing Wednesday at the district office on Mission 66. They included school principals; heads of finance, transpor-tation, security and other departments; and special education and instructional support staff.
After collecting their ideas, Swinford asked them to can-vass teachers, assistants and all staff members, col-lect their responses and turn them in to her by Dec. 3.
The superintendent hopes to have a strategic plan developed, approved and in force by July 1.
“We need to do it now, as soon as possible, and it’s a lengthy process,” she said.
Suggestions gleaned from the community meetings included math and reading intervention, more funds for classroom supplies and more technology, including “Smart boards” and laptop comput-ers for students.
The district has an exist-ing strategic plan, but it was adopted in 1997. “It’s just a document we have out there, sitting,” Swinford said.
The superintendent, as others have before her, meets monthly with administration and leadership to pass along information from school board meetings, develop pro-cedures, discuss policies and share ideas.
Wednesday’s discussions also involved improving the reading abilities of stu-dents. Swinford handed out data collected from the most recent round of state testing in April which shows 21 per-cent of students in the dis-trict scoring in the Minimal category on tests of reading or English skills. Another 39 percent scored Basic, 35 per-cent Proficient and 5 percent Advanced.
“Obviously, we want to increase the number of Advanced and decrease the number of Minimal,” she said, as well as move Basic readers to Proficient and beyond. “Reading has to be one of the things we pay the most attention to. If the kids can’t read, they can’t do sci-ence, social studies or even math.”
Working in groups with the same facilitators who led community groups, adminis-trators shared methods used at their schools, including a focus on vocabulary, staff development and the use of videotaped lessons for stu-dents assigned to in-school suspension.
Other topics discussed Wednesday included sugges-tions for raising the district’s public profile; the need to review and change, if neces-sary, the professional dress code for employees as well as the elementary school supply lists; the district’s new bully-ing policy recently adopted by the board; proposals for upcoming teacher work days; and policies with regard to test instructions and school visits from the Department of Human Services.
The new bullying policy, adopted Nov. 11, requires adults who work in the schools to report instances of bullying or face disciplinary action.
Blossom Lane, No. 10F, and Allen Lee Jones, 25, 1511 Spring St.
Another in the case, Karie Calvary, 28, 1245 Mount Alban Road, No. 1, charged with being an accessory before the fact, also cannot be prosecuted, Arthur said. A fourth, Edward Stowers, 43, 128 Village Drive, pleaded guilty in August in this and
other cases, and is cur-rently serving an eight year sentence.
Jackson, Jones, Stow-ers and Calvary had been arrested following a Dec. 26 robbery at another apart-ment at the Apple Orchard complex on Blossom Lane.
Williams faces up to 10 years in prison. He remains out of jail on a $25,000 bond,
but is scheduled for sentenc-ing Friday in circuit court by Judge M. James Chaney.
Williams was arrested fol-lowing his indictment in July on sexual battery and incest charges. The com-plaint against him was made May 6 by an adult victim to the Vicksburg Police Depart-ment, where Williams was a patrolman in 2003 and 2004
and for about 10 months in 2007.
An investigation by the Mis-sissippi Bureau of Investiga-tion ensued after the detec-tive arm of the state police was contacted by the Warren County Sheriff’s Department, which was brought into the case after it was determined the crime happened outside city limits.
When Williams was indicted, officials did not say whether he quit or was fired. He had been placed on medi-cal leave from the depart-ment in April after he was injured in a wreck.
In addition to his law enforcement career, Wil-liams ran unsuccessfully for sheriff of Issaquena County in November 2007.

Uneasy House Democratskeep Pelosi as leader
WASHINGTON — House Democrats gambled Wednes-day they can return to power under the same leaders who just over-saw a 61-seat election loss, choosing Nancy Pelosi to remain their party chief when they become the minority in January.
Moderate Democrats pleaded for a change to show voters they under-stand the anger and unrest reg-istered two weeks earlier on Election Day. And Pelosi didn’t retain her leadership without a fight, defeating Rep. Heath Shuler of North Carolina, 150-43, in secret bal-loting in a lengthy closed-door gathering on Capitol Hill.
In a contrast befitting the Nov. 2 election results, House Republicans kept Rep. John Boehner of Ohio as their leader without opposition, and he will become speaker in the new Congress. Eric Cantor of Virginia will retain the second-ranking party position, which will be major-ity leader, and Kevin McCar-thy of California will be the party whip.
Boehner, who turned 61 Wednesday, told his col-leagues they will usher in “the dawn of a new majority,” which he said will be “hum-bler, wiser and more focused than its predecessors on the priorities of the people.”
Obama enlists big gunsto save nuke treaty
WASHINGTON — Presi-dent Barack Obama sum-moned a number of former defense secretaries and sec-retaries of state of both par-ties to the White House to rally support for an imper-iled nuclear weapons treaty
with Russia.Those invited to the
Roosevelt Room meeting today included Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clin-ton, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry, Sen. Richard Lugar and former Sen. Sam Nunn, plus former secretaries of state Madeleine Albright, James Baker and Henry Kissinger.
Former defense secretaries William Cohen and William Perry and former National Security Adviser Brent Scow-croft also were included.
The White House said Obama wanted to discuss why it is in the national inter-est that the Senate approve the treaty this year, a move that a key Senate Republican says would be premature.
Murkowski winsAlaska Senate seat
WASHINGTON — An exul-tant Sen. Lisa Murkowski is celebrating her write-in victory over Sarah Palin’s favored candidate in Alaska, saying the “most phenome-nal coalition” of Republicans, Democrats and independents re-elected her against long
odds.Murkowski
acknowl-edges in nationally broadcast television interviews that ballots
remain to be counted in
the state, but said, “The fact of the matter is, the numbers are there and they are what they are.”
Murkowski said today that her triumph was “Alaskans coming together. ... It was a challenge for Alaskans, but they met it.”
Medicare panel backscostly cancer drug
WASHINGTON — Medi-care advisers on Wednes-day supported the effective-ness of the prostate cancer drug Provenge, an innovative therapy that has prompted questions about the cost of medical care and the govern-ment’s role in paying for it.
The vote by a 14-member panel of outside experts amounts to a recommenda-tion that Medicare pay for Provenge, which costs $93,000 per patient and extends life an average of four months.

SIdElINESFavre: Shoulder is OK,team still has hope
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — This week will likely be the last of Brett Favre’s four grudge games against Green Bay since he shook up the sports world by signing with former rival Min-nesota more than a year ago. If Favre and the Vi-kings (3-6) aren’t victori-ous on Sunday, well, the NFC playoffs will prob-ably take place without any purple. This season has been so strange, though, and so frustrat-ing for Favre and his teammates that the re-match against the Pack-ers (6-3) appears to offer far less drama than all the other subplots sur-rounding the 41-year-old quarterback and his underperforming team. The NFL, after all, at some point will announce the findings of its investiga-tion into allegations that Favre sent texts and lewd photos to a female Jets employee two years ago.
Favre threw 24 inter-ceptions in 1993, 23 each in 1998 and 1999 and 29 in 2005, so he’s endured these turnover rashes before. But he said he doesn’t typically alter his approach in such stretch-es.

By a razor-thin margin, Vicksburg High kept its place among the big boys.
Vicksburg ranked 31st in enrollment among Missis-sippi’s high schools, allow-ing it to remain in Class 6A under the Mississippi High School Activities Association’s bi-annual reclassification plan. Vicksburg had 1,086 stu-dents. Natchez, at No. 32, had 1,085 and Starkville was 33rd with 1,079. The 32 largest high schools in the state are placed in Class 6A, while the next 32 make up Class 5A.
Vicksburg football coach Alonzo Stevens was hope-ful the school would drop down a class, giving it an edge on some competitors. Instead, he’ll hit the field in 2011 with a team made up from one of the small-est student bodies in Class 6A.
“You’ve got to play the hand they dealt you. Coming off being the big-gest 4A (in 2006) and now being the smallest 6A, it’s going to be a challenge,” Stevens said. “Just being that small, it creates a double challenge. We’re up for it. We’ve just got to compete.”
Warren Central remained solidly in Class 6A. Although it ranked 27th in enrollment, WC had 1,165 students when the final count was taken in October.
St. Aloysius will also remain in Class 1A. It ranked 18th out of 52 schools grouped into the state’s smallest classifica-tion with 160 students. The largest Class 1A school, H.W. Byers, had 196.
Although Vicksburg’s three MHSAA members — as well as Class 4A Port Gibson — will stay put, others in the surrounding area will be on the move:

Rebels ravage RacersBy David BrandtAP sports writer
OXFORD — Murray State’s plan to stop Ole Miss guard Chris Warren worked nearly perfectly.
The only problem for the Racers is it left Zach Graham and Nick Williams open all night.
Graham scored 22 points and Williams added 21 as Ole Miss cruised to a 77-61 victory over Murray State on Wednesday night. Both totals were career-highs as the Rebels overcame a slow start to finish an impressive victory over a program that’s considered one of the best mid-majors in the country.
“We were patient,” Wil-liams said. “We ran our offense, found some open shots and then knocked them down.”
Graham, a 6-foot-6 senior, made 6-of-11 shots from the field, including 3-of-4 from 3-point range. He was also 7 of 7 from the free-throw line.
Williams, a transfer from Indiana playing just his second game with the Rebels, made 7 of 10 from the field. The 6-foot-4 sophomore added six rebounds and two assists.
Ole Miss (2-0) made 22 of 23 free throws (95.7 percent) and led by as many as 23 late in the second half.
“I thought we really took a step forward today,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy
said. “We showed a lot of toughness.”
The Rebels dominated in the paint, outscoring
the Racers 34-17 and out-rebounding them 39-30. Sophomore Reggie Buckner blocked three shots.

Golden Eagles rompover South AlabamaBy The Associated Press
HATTIESBURG — R.L. Horton scored 25 points, Josimar Ayarza added 17 and Southern Miss blew past South Alabama 93-58 on Wednesday night.
The Golden Eagles (2-0) put together an early 16-0 run and led 38-20 at the break before putting away the Jag-uars (1-1) with a 26-5 run to start the second half.
Southern Miss won without forward Gary Flowers, last year’s leading scorer, who missed the game with what coach Larry Eustachy called “flu-like symptoms.”
Flowers led Southern Miss with 15 points in a 60-53 win over South Florida on Friday, but Horton was 10-of-20 from the field, including 5-for--7
from the 3-point line.Torye Pelham and Ahyaro
Phillips shared Flowers’ power forward role, and scored 15 and seven points, respectively.
“I thought we beat a really good team,” Southern Miss coach Larry Eustachy said. “I’m shocked at how easy we got them. We did it without our best player, and also with the newcomers not playing as well as I know they will. We put it into their heads that they needed to step up without (Gary) Flowers, and they did. It was good for our guys to be able to do that. I know they feel real good about themselves.”
Tim Williams led the Jag-uars with 17 points.
Big-time college football is all about the dollarsThe recent accusations
about Auburn quarterback Cam Newton’s recruitment are damning.
The best player in the coun-try is now in the spotlight for something other than his stellar play.
But are they anything new? Are they symptomatic of a broken system where an incompetent NCAA struggles to find and punish offenders?
No, they’re not anything new. Money and big-time college football and basket-ball have gone together like a horse and carriage for decades.
Oklahoma’s pay-for-play scandals under Barry Swit-zer, Southern Methodist’s death penalty for egregious violations, Alabama’s Albert Means case and the USC
Reggie Bush debacle are all part of a fabric of scandal that stretches back to the 1950s, when the “hundred-dollar handshake” became shady booster de riguer.
With the massive revenue generated by college football, thanks to gigantic TV deals, the stakes for securing better talent have only increased.
The best way to view the FBS (Football Bowl Subdi-vision) is that it is a high-
dollar, minor-league feeder system for the NFL. All of the NCAA’s blather about “stu-dent-athletes” and new regu-lations just make it harder, not impossible, and ensure that only the wealthiest and prestigious football and bas-ketball programs can com-pete on the big stage.
These modern athletes are ones who just happen to go to school and, thanks to the Academic Progress Rate regulation, will gradu-ate in a useless major like underwater basket weaving. They’re athletes first, stu-dents second. Not all of them fit that template, but looking at the majors during a tele-cast draws snickers. Remem-ber “urban studies?” Like you can get a job in the real world with that on your diploma.
Not all big-time college foot-ball is like that, but the excep-tions stand out like a Yamaha at a Harley-Davidson motor-cycle rally.
If you want to see true stu-dent athletes playing for the love of the game, the FCS, Division II and Division III (no athletic scholarships) are the last vestiges of the old system where students played football for enjoyment and school pride, not dollars and cents.
Colleges have attached themselves to this beast of big-money football and receive millions of dollars in exchange for a Faustian deal with the devil.
If anything comes of the Newton allegations, Cam and his father, Cecil, will pay the price. Auburn will go on pro-
bation if the coaching staff played him despite eligibil-ity questions. They’ll likely have to vacate all of the wins this season, but in the grand scheme of things, it’ll be a slap on the wrist. To the fans in the stands and the boost-ers in the skyboxes and the school administration who enriched their school coffers, it won’t matter that the excit-ing season will be blanked from the record book like it didn’t happen.
Resign yourself to the fact that you’re watching unoffi-cial pro football. It just hap-pens to be played on a college campus near you.

nbaOden will miss another season
PORTLAND, Ore. — Trail Blaz-ers center Greg Oden, the former No. 1 draft pick whose short career has been marred by injuries, will have microfracture surgery on his left knee and will not play this season.
Oden hasn’t played since last December because he needed surgery to repair a fractured left patella. The Blazers say this opera-tion, scheduled for Friday in Vail, Colo., will repair damaged car-tilage and is unrelated to the patella injury. Oden, the first name announced in the 2007 NBA draft, missed his rookie season because of microfracture surgery on his right knee. The procedure stimu-lates cartilage growth.

Purdue blastsAlcorn StateBy The Associated Press
Purdue’s pressure against Alcorn State was so good that coach Matt Painter couldn’t tell how well his team’s defense performed overall.
The 14th-ranked Boilermak-ers forced 28 turnovers in a 103-48 win over the Braves on Wednesday night, limiting the chances for Painter to assess his team’s halfcourt defense.
“When somebody can’t get into their offense, it’s not a real gauge on what your defense can do,” Painter said. “Our pressure knocked them off, they couldn’t get into their offense. Sometimes, it’s fool’s gold.”
Not necessarily. When the Braves got past the pressure, Purdue held them to 29 per-cent shooting.
Purdue led 59-17 at halftime, and by 62 points with 9:41 to play. Purdue held Howard to 25 percent shooting three days earlier.
The offense was effective for the second straight game. A day after star forward Robbie Hummel had ACL surgery, E’Twaun Moore had 19 points, seven assists and six rebounds, John Hart scored a career-high 16 points and made 4 of 6 3-pointers, Sandi Marcius had 12 points and eight rebounds and JaJuan Johnson added 12 points for the Boilermak-ers (2-0), who shot 52 percent from the field.
Hart, a reserve, has made 8 of 11 3-pointers this season.
Villanova 82,Boston U. 66
Antonio Pena scored 17 points and Corey Fisher had 16 to lead No. 6 Villanova to an 82-66 victory over Boston Uni-versity in the second round of the NIT Season Tip-Off on Wednesday night.

Wesley Witherspoon had 24 points and a career-high 12 rebounds, while Will Barton added 22 points to key a sec-ond-half rally to help No. 19 Memphis beat Northwestern State.
Witherspoon was 5-of-7 from the field and converted all but one of his 14 free throws as Memphis (3-0) survived a sec-ond-half burst by the Demons, who held the lead with just over 13 minutes left.

Capital City Classic seeks fan supportBy Jeff [email protected]
JACKSON — Attendance at
last year’s Capital City Classic was just over 16,000. That was enough to send red flags up to the administrations at Jack-son State and Alcorn State.
On Wednesday at the Uni-versity Club in downtown Jackson, it was the key sub-ject in a breakfast press con-ference hosted by former New Orleans Saints running back Deuce McAllister.
While McAllister played at Ole Miss and has no ties to either Jackson State or Alcorn, he is a big promoter for the city of Jackson with several business ventures and knows the importance of the contest, now in its 18th year.
“We feel a need to restore the Capital City Classic,” McAllister said. “It is very important for both schools financially that this game is a success and a successful Capi-tal City Classic is good for the city of Jackson. What we need is for people to buy tickets and come to the game.”
Alcorn State athletic direc-tor Brenda Square said efforts by McAllister and the Jack-son business community are helping.
“We are experiencing a revitalization of this game,” Square said. “Both of our insti-tutions are in a financial crisis and we need to get the crowds back to where they were when we had 40,000. We want folks to embrace the heritage of these two schools.”
At least in this year’s meet-
ing, fans will see two teams that can finish with winning records and have two of Mis-sissippi’s best quarterbacks at any level.
Jackson State’s Casey Ther-riault, a junior from Michigan, has cut a swath through South-western Athletic Conference defenses this season and is a prime candidate for the Con-erly Trophy at the end of the month. In leading the Tigers to a 7-3 record, Therriault has completed 229 of 405 passes for 3,228 yards and 29 touch-downs. He has seven 300-yard games and has thrown for five touchdowns twice, including last week’s win over Arkansas Pine-Bluff.
“He’s just had a fantas-tic year,” said Jackson State coach Rick Comegy. “He’s been a great leader for us.”
On the other side, Alcorn State (5-5, 3-4 SWC) is led by Toronto native Brandon Bridge, who has thrown for 2,016 yards and 18 touch-downs while running for an additional 570 yards and eight scores.
“He’s an excellant quarter-back who can hurt you with his arm or his feet,” Jack-son State defensive end Sam Washington said.
Alcorn State coach Earnest Collins knows how important Bridge’s play has been for his team.
“He’s had an amazing year,” Collins said. “He’s just a fresh-man, but he is a really mature freshman.”
The Braves got off to a 3-0 start behind Bridge. Then came a loss to Mississippi State that started a four-game
slide capped by a 39-35 loss on ESPNU to Arkansas-Pine-Bluff in Lorman. Since then, the Braves have gone 2-1 and a win against the Tigers would make Collins 2-0 against JSU and give the Braves a winning season.
“Very important game,” Col-lins said. “We will use this as a building block.”

South Alabama shot 18 per-cent from the field in the first half and 28 percent (17 for 60) for the game.
South Alabama coach Ronnie Arrow was ejected early in the second half.
“When we’re shooting 28 percent against a team that’s shooting 40 percent, it’s hard to be in the game,” said Jags assistant coach Michael
Floyd. “They shot 40 percent in the first half and 62 per-cent in the second and it’s hard to survive on that. It didn’t help that we didn’t exe-cute on offense, and when we did execute, we missed a lot of open looks. As the game went on, our defense just fell apart. I think, at points, especially in the second half, there was just a lot of frus-
tration. We were taking bad shots and they just started piling up on top of each other. At the same time, our defense wasn’t where it usu-ally is.”
The 35-point win was the largest margin of victory for either team in the 36-game series history.
from Class 3A to 2A. It will be the largest 2A school, missing the cut for 3A by just four students.
• Hinds AHS will drop from Class 2A to 1A and could end up in a division with St. Al when those are announced in early December. Hinds was the sixth largest Class 1A school with 186 students. Football coach Michael Fields said the drop came as no surprise.
“I kind of expected that. The only bad part is that when you’re dropping num-bers, you’re dropping ath-letes,” Fields said, adding that he wasn’t necessarily sure the drop in class would benefit his team. “It’s hard to say, because if we’re in that district it doesn’t matter. Those teams are as good as the teams we’re playing.”
The biggest remaining question when it comes to reclassification is the divi-sional alignment. Hinds AHS
could join St. Al and Univer-sity Christian, a newcomer from the MAIS, in a vastly reconstituted Region 4-1A. Meanwhile, in Class 6A, a shakeup in the southern half of the state could bring a rad-ical change to the lineup.
Three schools — Starkville, Wingfield and Pascagoula — dropped from 6A to 5A. Moving up to replace them are Forest Hill, St. Martin and D’Iberville. Starkville’s drop will likely shift either Grenada or Greenville-Weston from Region 2-6A to 1-6A, which covers the north-ern half of the state.
Region 2-6A, which includes Vicksburg, Warren Central and a smattering of schools located along I-20, will likely add Natchez, Bran-don, Terry or Forest Hill to its roster. All of those schools except Forest Hill are cur-rently in Region 3-6A, which covers a huge swath of south-ern Mississippi.
with a 3-pointer ended. The Ole Miss senior finished with just 10 points after scor-ing 26 in a season-opening win against Arkansas State. He missed all four of his attempts from beyond the arc — including one in the final seconds as the crowd groaned.
“I hate that (the streak is) broken,” Andy Kennedy said. “But I give Murray State credit. They were really pressing up on him and forc-ing him to drive ... That was their gameplan and it was a smart one.”
Murray State (1-1), which returned three starters from a team that made the second round of the NCAA Tourna-ment last season, shot just
30.2 percent from the field (16-of-53) and trailed 34-23 at halftime. Biloxi native Isaiah Canaan led the Racers with 15 points. Donte Poole added 12 and Jeffrey McClain scored 11.
Murray State’s strength is its quick guard play, but a taller and stronger Ole Miss defense kept them off bal-ance all night.
“We missed a lot of layups around the basket,” Murray State coach Billy Kennedy said. “Their size was a factor.”
The Racers jumped out to an early six-point lead, but fought foul trouble through-out the game. Ole Miss went on an 11-0 run midway through the first half to take
a 21-14 lead and the Rebels never trailed again. Graham and Williams scored a com-bined seven points during that crucial run.
Andy Kennedy credited Warren and Graham for keeping the team composed during the early dry stretch.
“If seniors can’t be com-posed, you’ve got issues,” Andy Kennedy said. “They’ve got to steady the ship.”
Ole Miss is now 39-1 at home in non-conference games under fifth-year coach Andy Kennedy. The Rebels are 19-5 all-time against teams from the Ohio Valley Conference.

‘Housewives’ star to divorce NBA hubbyLess than four years after a
storybook wedding in Paris, Eva Longoria filed court papers Wednesday to divorce basket-ball star Tony Parker, citing irrec-oncilable differences.
Parker, a three-time NBA All-Star with the San Antonio Spurs, made no hint as to what caused the split between him and the star of TV’s “Desper-ate Housewives” during a brief meeting with a throng of re-porters outside his team’s lock-er room about an hour before a game.
“It’s a difficult time right now for me and Eva,” Parker said. “We got a joint statement and every-thing else is our private life.”
Asked about speculation that Parker might have been in-volved with the wife of a former Spurs teammate, Parker re-plied: “That’s my private life.”
Parker spoke to the media for less than a minute before a team official ended the interview.
Longoria and Parker were married in a civil ceremony in France on July 6, 2007. The next day, a priest married them in a church across from the Louvre Museum, followed by an exclu-sive bash at a storied French chateau.
Boyle breaking records with new albumSinging sensation Susan Boyle has a No. 1 album in the United
States and the U.K. simultaneously for the second time in a year — a feat not achieved for more than 40 years.
Her record label, Sony, said she is the first woman to reach the milestone achieved previ-ously by the Beatles in 1969 and The Monkees in 1967.
Boyle said she has “never felt happier” than seeing “The Gift,” match her first record’s suc-cessful debut. “The Gift” reached No. 1 in the U.K. on Sunday and topped the U.S. charts
Wednesday.The eccentric Scot shot to international fame after her audi-
tion for the TV show “Britain’s Got Talent” received more than 120 million views on YouTube. Boyle’s first album, “I Dreamed A Dream,” came out in 2009 and has sold more than 10 million copies.

Hulk” television series, lives in California. He says the Arizona posse volunteers can help protect the country against drug and immigrant smugglers.
“I must warn you that we are in for a rude awakening, because this country right now is in a lot of danger,” Ferrigno said at the ceremony Wednesday.
The sheriff said action-film star Steven Seagal and actor Peter Lupus of TV’s “Mission: Impossible” fame also are members of the posse group, though they weren’t sworn in at the ceremo-ny.

Burglary suspect found asleep on floorPolice didn’t have a hard time finding a burglary suspect they
said broke into a central Florida home. He was asleep on the bedroom floor.
The homeowner said his home had been targeted several times in the past few days. It’s unclear what, if anything, was sto-len.
Authorities found a side door forced open and a 17-year-old sleeping on the floor Wednesday.
He was charged with burglary and taken to a juvenile deten-tion center.
His name is being withheld because of his age.

Singer Newton wants to open house to worldLas Vegas mansion is filled with celebrity memorabilia
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Wayne Newton’s Las Vegas estate is a lavish wonderland complete with South African penguins, sweeping crystal staircases and a memorabilia collection to make a celebrity junkie sal-ivate: a Frank Sinatra cham-pagne glass, Nat King Cole’s watch, Steve McQueen’s Rolls-Royce and a Johnny Cash guitar.
The estate is so resplendent, Newton said, that he plans to open his gated home to the public and turn it into a tour-ist attraction. The project some have dubbed “Graceland West” won initial approval from a local government board Wednesday, paving the way for Newton to open his tours in late 2011 as planned.
The attraction has caused friction between the enter-tainer and neighbors opposed to noisy tour buses, unyield-ing traffic and inane gift shops flooding their affluent neigh-borhood of ranches and man-sions just six miles from the Las Vegas Strip.
At the Clark County Com-mission meeting Wednesday, critics went on for more than three hours, begging the board to postpone approving the still-evolving project, to no avail.
“This has been incredibly heavy-handed,” said neighbor Terry Manley. “It’s arrogance. What’s the hurry?”
In Newton’s vision, visitors to Casa de Shenandoah will tour select parts of his 10,000-square-foot home adorned with plush white carpets, gold-trimmed
doors, impressionist paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir and 17th-century antiques collected from European castles.
They might glance at the sing-er’s favorite space, a cramped office just to the right of his lavish living room, where the red paint splashed on the walls is barely visible behind the shelves and stacks of memen-toes collected during his 50-plus years in show business.
The keepsakes are a reflec-tion of some of the mentors and friends who helped make Newton famous, including Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Bobby Darin and Jack Benny.
“This is ‘The Dove,”’ Newton, 68, informed visitors on a recent morning, plucking a beat-up guitar case from a row of instruments near his desk. “Elvis gave it to me at Grace-land four months before he died.”
An adjacent theater would show a documentary about Newton’s public life, and, on some nights, Newton himself would take the stage to belt out the songs that made his high-pitched voice famous — “Daddy Don’t You Walk So Fast,” which peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard charts in 1972; his 1965 version of “Red Roses for a Blue Lady,”
and his signature hit, “Danke Schoen.”
Newton said he and his wife decided to share their home because they love the 40-acre estate so much. The attraction will be both a tribute to Las Vegas performers and a peace-ful haven in a city of neon lights and 24-hour casinos, he said.
“The last thing I have ever done is infringe on my neigh-bors,” he said. “I’ve heard people say that we are building a monument to myself. Get seri-ous. I’m not that important.”
The attraction could employ more than 400 people while creating a new cash cow after years of financial troubles.
Newton filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 1992 to reorganize an estimated $20 million in debts, including a $341,000 Internal Revenue Ser-vice lien for back taxes.

Man accused of shooting TVover ‘Dancing with the Stars’
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A rural Wisconsin man appar-ently enraged by Bristol Pal-in’s “Dancing with the Stars” routine blasted his television with a shotgun, leading to an all-night standoff with a SWAT team, investigators said.
Steven Cowan, 67, was arrested Tuesday morning after officers coaxed him out of his house in Vermont, a rural community near Madi-son. Cowan, who is accused of threatening his wife with the gun after destroying the tele-vision, appeared in a Madison courtroom Wednesday on a charge of second-degree reck-less endangerment. His bail was set at $1,500.
Cowan’s attorney at the hear-ing, Jonas Bednarek, declined to comment.
Cowan’s wife, Janice Cowan, told investigators that her hus-band suffers from bipolar dis-order and had threatened her life in the past.
According to court docu-ments, Janice Cowan said her husband came home Monday from the bar and had a beer with dinner before they settled down to watch “Dancing with the Stars.”
When Palin, the 20-year-old daughter of Tea Party favorite Sarah Palin, began her routine, Cowan jumped up and began swearing, saying something like “The (expletive) politics.” His wife said he was upset that a political figure’s daughter was dancing on TV even though he felt she didn’t have talent.
Janice Cowan told investiga-tors her husband left the living room and reappeared 20 min-utes later with his shotgun, “raging” with his face bright red, and blasted the TV. She said he then pointed the gun at her and told her to go fetch his
pistols, and threatened to kill himself if she brought anyone back. According to the criminal complaint, Steven Cow-an’s daughter
recently took away his hand-
guns for safekeeping. It did not elaborate.
“He scared the bejebees out of me,” she told detectives.
Janice Cowan fled the home and went to an attorney’s office, where she phoned police.
She told officers that about 15 years ago her husband had threatened her with a machete when he couldn’t find some ammunition and has threat-ened to shoot one of their cows.
She added he was under stress because of financial rea-sons, saying a doctor helping him with his mental health problems had suggested he temporarily turn over control of properties he rents out to the family’s attorney.

Naming former spouses sets record straight in obituariesDear Abby: “Surviving Son
in California” (Sept. 20) sought your advice regarding proper protocol in mentioning all sur-viving relatives when parents had been divorced. You said, “After a couple divorces and one of them dies, the name of the former spouse is usu-ally not mentioned in the obit-uary.” I think your response needs a little tweaking.
My siblings and I faced this same scenario after my father passed away. My parents divorced when I was in grade school, and each parent had remarried by my freshman year in high school. Although their divorce was painful, they remained on friendly terms throughout their lives. I was adamant that my biological mother be listed in my father’s obituary for two reasons: First, the obituary serves as a his-torical document. Second, I did not want people reading the obituary to think my sib-
lings and I were children from my father’s second marriage.
An obituary should serve as a historical account of our loved one’s life — not a battle-field. — Leslie in Port Ange-les, Wash.
Dear Leslie: Thank you for pointing out your valid rea-sons for including former spouses in an obituary. Allow me to share a few more. Read on:
Dear Abby: I’ve worked in newspapers on the East Coast for the past 11 years, and I can tell you that mentioning a divorced spouse’s name is totally a matter of individ-ual and family preference. It
is becoming more common to see “So-and-so” was the former wife and good friend of “the deceased,” which is a nice development. It is the right of the surviving family to decide the contents of the obituary. Because some people even include pets among survivors, you would think an ex-spouse would receive the same con-sideration. — Name Withheld in Connecticut
Dear Abby: Genealogy researchers often use obituar-ies to find the parents or chil-dren of families. Here in Iowa, it is common for the obituary to show that a couple mar-ried, had children and were divorced. I understand how some children might decide to omit a parent if the divorce wasn’t a friendly one. I was left out of my first husband’s obituary, but I got over it. — Two Sides to a Story
Dear Abby: There is a differ-ence between an obituary and
a death notice. A death notice is a paid announcement, usu-ally in small type and gen-erally placed by the funeral director. It can include, or exclude, anything the family wishes.
An obituary is an objec-tive news story written by a bylined reporter, and it con-tains the good, the bad and the ugly — including the names of former spouses, whether separated by death or divorce. — Former Copy Editor in Philadelphia
Dear Abby: Here in the South, an ex-spouse is often listed this way: “Jane Doe of Memphis, Tenn., is the mother of his children.” The primary reason is so the children feel their surviving parent, and the years their parents spent together, are acknowledged. — Nancy in Conway, Ark.
Dear Abby: You can’t erase the years spent together as a family even though a divorce
has occurred. I had been mar-ried for 30 years at the time of my divorce, and it is impor-tant for me to be listed when my ex passes away — and vice versa. My ex and I discussed this and agreed that the obitu-ary would be written this way: “Also survived by the mother/father of his/her children ...” In my mind, divorced or not,
you will always be family. — An Ex Who is Still Part of the Family

Diet low in fiberleads to diverticulitis
Dear Dr. Gott: In Novem-ber 2006, I was diagnosed with diverticular disease. In Octo-ber 2009, I had surgery, and the diseased portion of my intestines was removed. Two abscesses were drained, one ovary was removed and a fis-tula was repaired. I’ve been pain free since.
My question is, could this happen again? I try to con-sume the recommended amount of fiber, and I drink plenty of water. Your thoughts, please.
Dear Reader: Divertic-ula are small sacs or pock-ets in one or more areas of the colon, more commonly in the sigmoid colon. People with diverticula present are diagnosed with diverticulo-sis. Should bacteria or waste get trapped in these pouches, inflammation and infection can result. When this occurs, the condition is then known as diverticulitis. Both condi-tions together make up diver-ticular disease. A diet low in fiber appears to be the main cause of diverticular disease, which can lead to constipa-tion and strain during evac-uation. It’s the straining that could cause diverticula to form in the colon.
Even though you had surgi-cal repair, you could conceiv-ably get diverticulitis again had you not taken positive steps. By modifying your diet to include more fiber, you have gone a long way toward eliminating the problems you had in the past. Whole grains such as found in multigrain or whole wheat breads, fresh fruits such as apples, pears and peaches and vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, squash, potatoes and legumes should provide ade-quate fiber. Between 20 and 35 grams of fiber per day are recommended for a health-ful diet. Avoid constipation. Maintain good bowel habits. Drink adequate liquids. Exer-cise regularly. Obtain ade-quate sleep.
Diverticulosis is common as a person ages. By the time a person reaches the age of 60, it will occur in almost 50 per-cent of the population.
People without symptoms will probably not require treatment; however, they should be on a high-fiber diet to ensure they are taking all possible precau-tions. When symptoms do present (constipation, diar-rhea, fever, chills), diagnosis can be made through X-ray, CT, ultrasound, sigmoidos-copy or colonoscopy.
Complications of diver-ticulitis can include intes-tinal blockage, abscesses and peritonitis (infection of the abdominal cavity). You appear to have presented with a classic case. Abscesses were discovered and drained. Surgery removed the dam-aged portion of the colon. You formed a fistula that was sur-gically removed. And you’re pain free.
Dear Dr. Gott: I recently heard that taking ginger tab-lets will relieve aching joints. Is there any validity to this advice?
Dear Reader: I am unaware of any scientific studies to support its use; however, I’d defy anyone to go up against what the Roman Empire began using almost 2,000 years ago as a healing herb for countless maladies.

Dr. Wallace: My best friend and I are upset with each other. We are not talking because she said I was spending too much time with my boyfriend and almost ignoring her. I want this “rift” to end, and the sooner the better. I don’t want this disagree-ment to ever happen again. Can you help me? — Nameless, Ontario, Calif.
Nameless: It can be healthy for friends to express anger just as long as there’s a speedy resolution. According to Commu-nity Psychiatric Centers in Santa Ana, Calif., the following “Fix It” Strategies should get your best friend and you back together:
• Act sooner, not later. The longer you wait, the more bitter you may feel toward each other, and the harder it will be to make up.
• Be willing to be the icebreaker. You’d make up with her in a minute — if she would just ask you to. But maybe she feels the same way. Somebody’s got to be willing to swallow her pride and make the first move toward reconciliation, and it may as well be you.
• Establish some ground rules. Like where to meet, who goes first, etc. The goal is that by practicing negotiations on smaller issues, you’ll go on to settle the larger ones as well!
• Hear each other out. Let your friend state her case without any interruptions by you or others.
• Avoid placing blame. “It’s your fault!” Such statements only put the other person on the defensive, and she will strike back. Try using “When you ... I feel” statements instead: “When you promised to go to the movies with me and then ended up go-ing out with your boyfriend, I felt rejected.” See how much less threatening that sounds?
• Focus on problems, not personalities. Rule out remarks like, “You always get your way because you’re spoiled,” or “You’re just jealous of me because I scored better on the math test than you did.”
• Recall happy times. When disagreements between friends pop up, it helps to remind one another of fun times you had to-gether in the past. The message is that there can be more good times in the future — you just have to work at bringing back the old, close feelings.
• Bite your tongue. There are some things that should never be said, even in the heat of an argument, because they inflict last-ing pain. You cannot take such words back. Insisting afterward that you really didn’t mean it won’t undo the damage. Your friend will have a hard time forgetting, and the trust between you could be destroyed.
The spat is officially over when you and your best friend end it with a hug.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — When events call for a strong character, you’ll be the first one to stand up and be noticed.Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You are likely to team up again with someone with whom you’ve been successful in the past. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — That protective nature of yours won’t hesitate to go to bat for someone who is near and dear to you, when you see s/he is in trouble and could use your help. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — It might not be obvious to you, but your strength of character and determination come into play the moment you believe you or someone you love is in trouble. This may happen today.Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — That wonderful optimism of yours, with its positive expectations, is what contributes to your successes. When it is coupled with practicality, as it is likely to be today, its power is awesome.Aries (March 21-April 19) — It is best not to see yourself as the underdog when negotiating an important deal, because it could cause you to get in a begging mode instead of acting from a strong position. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Friends who need a lot of pats on the back could be difficult for many to handle, but not you. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Everyone gets a day when people treat them in the same manner they have treated others, and today could be yours.Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Lots of fun happenings shared with good co-workers, friends and associates are likely to make up most of your day.Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Any barriers or obstacles shouldn’t bar you one bit from doing what you want. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Although you won’t deliberately seek out competitive situations in either your business or social affairs, they could serve to encourage you to achieve what you want. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Provided you don’t leave anything up to chance, there are strong indications that you will collect what is owed you, even if that means calling in a marker on something that is long overdue.
