It was a gray overcast, rainy Labor Day on Mon-day, but local offi cials were relieved the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee which caused major fl ooding in other parts of the state didn’t cause much damage on a local level.

But fi ngers remained crossed Monday night with more rain expected through today in the Cross-roads area with as much as six inches of rainfall pre-dicted in some areas.

“We are blessed,” said City of Corinth Street Commissioner Jim By-num about 4 p.m. Mon-day. “So far.”

Underpasses and streets were not fl ooded at all, noted Bynum.

With the city working to keep drainage areas free of debris and no heavy downpours, “we’ve had no problems whatsoever,” he said.

“It looks pretty good out there. No trees down and no fl ooding,” added Bynum.

Alcorn County had heavy rainfall Monday

in some areas, “but the ground was so dry, much of it was absorbed,” said Alcorn County Emergen-cy Management Director Ricky Gibens.

Workers had to close CR 450 adjacent to the Rienzi watershed lake and a tree fell across CR 120 -- the only two problems

reported in the county, he said.

Alcorn County reported one closed road Monday due to flooding — CR 450 next to the Rienzi watershed lake. The heavy rainfall was a result of Tropical Storm Lee moving through the area.

TISHOMINGO COUNTY — A Corinth man drowned after attempting to cross a fl ooded creek at the entrance to J.P. Coleman State Park, accord-ing to authorities.

John Howard Anderson Jr., 57, drowned at ap-proximately 11 p.m. Sunday, said Mack Wilemon, Tishomingo County coroner.

Anderson, who was staying in a houseboat in the park’s marina, was riding back into the park with some friends in a van when the accident occurred.

Short Creek, usually about two feet deep, marks the entrance to J.P. Coleman State Park. As the rem-nants of Tropical Storm Lee passed through the area, the waters rose to almost six feet, authorities said.

The coroner said Anderson took the wheel when the van’s driver refused to continue driving through the creek.

“Anderson took the wheel and got the front tires almost to the other side when the current caught the back end and spun it around,” Wilemon explained. “Everybody got out of the van and they were in the process of rescuing him with a rope when the cur-rent got him.”

Anderson’s body was recovered around midnight, 300 yards away in a wooded area inside the park.

It was the fi rst reported death directly attributed to the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee.

With a wide variety of contests that highlight traditional crafts and talent, the 2011 Alcorn County Fair will offer family fun and enter-tainment for kids of all ages.

“The Fair is offer-ing opportunities for our friends and neigh-bors to show off their talents. Whether you can the best beans in your church or have a child with a voice like an angel — there is a contest for you at the Fair,” said Chris Por-terfi eld, Alcorn County Fair committee chair-man. “We are expecting racks of quilts to show off, a barn full of cows and horses to show, and crowds of pageant girls in their ruffl ed dresses to help us celebrate Al-corn County and all the talent we have in North Mississippi.”

The Alcorn County Fair’s organizers wish to remind the public that there is still time to reg-ister for the many com-petitions and contests that showcase tradition-al crafts and local talent.

Contests include a Cheer Off (schools and gyms), Quilt Show (pro-fessional, amateur and vintage), Talent Show (pre-qualifi er for the Mid-South Fair), Fair-est of the Fair Pageant, 4-H Cow and Horse Show and Ranch Rodeo.

There is also a call for participants for the Blue Ribbon Exhibitors, a canning competition for “Best Pickles” and more.

With a trio of big events coming next weekend, tourism offi cials are ex-pecting a boost to the lo-cal economy.

The upcoming events include the Battle of Farm-ington Reenactment (Sept. 15-18), the Alcorn County Fair (Sept. 13-18), and the 10th Annual Darryl Worley Tennessee River Run (Sept.

16-17) in nearby Pickwick and Savannah, Tenn.

“The one that will im-pact us the most is the Farmington event,” said Tourism Director Kristy White. “A lot of the ladies whose husbands are par-ticipating in the reenact-ment will be staying in our hotels.”

Farmington Mayor Dale Fortenberry said many of the reenactors will be “camping out” in the ho-

tels around Corinth.In addition to the in-

crease in hotel reserva-tions, the events will be a boon to the city’s restau-rants and shopping outlets.

The multi-day events will provide an extra boost to the tourism reve-nue generated during the weekend.

“Historically, they’ve had a lower occupancy dur-ing the weekend than the week,” White explained.

“Having something going on during the weekend is icing on the cake to having something in the week.”

The Farmington Reen-actment is expected to be particularly active this year, due to the Civil War Ses-quicentennial — or 150th anniversary. In April 2011, Civil War sites around the country began commemo-rating the beginning of the war with events that will continue through 2015.

While this year’s Farm-ington event is expected to be bigger than ever, at-tention is already being di-rected at next year’s event, which will mark the 150th anniversary of the fi ghting around Farmington.

“With the Sesquicen-tennial they’ve been get-ting more interest,” White said. “This will be a big weekend — and a fore-shadowing of what we can expect next year.”

While plenty of rooms are still available for the week and weekend, trav-elers who wish to take ad-vantage of Corinth’s lodg-ing facilities should not wait until the last minute, said Barbara Wilbanks, operations manager at the Holiday Inn Express.

“A lot of people think they can always fi nd a ho-tel room in Corinth — but they can’t. We book out a lot!” Wilbanks said.

An up-and-coming mu-sician with Corinth roots will open for the headlin-ing acts at the 10th An-nual Darryl Worley Ten-nessee River Run on Sept. 17 in what organizers say will be the biggest event in the 10-year history of the concert series.

Ben Mathis, son of Phil and Cindy Mathis of Corinth, earned his place on the River Run stage by winning the Jack-son (Tenn.) Battle of the Bands Competition.

Mathis is a former member of the group Nash Street and a past Slug Idol champion. The guitarist and vocalist

parted ways with Nash Street to pursue a solo ca-reer.

In the Jackson Battle of the Bands, Mathis per-formed with a group of friends under the unoffi -cial name Ben Mathis and the Sidekicks.

As the winner of the competition, Mathis has earned studio time at Jax-on Records and an open-ing-slot gig with Darryl Worley and Montgomery Gentry at the Pickwick concert.

JACKSON — The slow-mov-ing remnants of Tropical Storm Lee dumped a torrent of rain across the South on Monday and whipped up tornadoes as it pushed further inland. One death was reported, and at least one person was injured.

In Mississippi, a man was swept away by fl oodwaters after trying to cross a swollen creek, authorities said Monday, the fi rst death caused by fl ooding or winds from Lee. The system was sweeping across Alabama and pushing into Georgia, where suspected tornadoes sent trees falling into homes and injured at least one person.

Lt. Jay Baker of the Cherokee County Sheriff’s offi ce northwest of Atlanta said he’d gotten scat-tered reports of homes damaged by falling trees, but couldn’t say how many. One person was taken to a hospital with injuries

that weren’t life-threatening.As of Monday afternoon, at

least 16,000 people were without power in Louisiana and Missis-sippi, states that bore the brunt of the storm over the weekend.

The man who died in Missis-sippi, 57-year-old John Howard Anderson Jr., had been in a car with two other people trying to cross a rain-swollen creek that naturally fl ows over the entrance to JP Coleman State Park. An-derson had been staying on a house boat at the park’s marina. Tishomingo County Coroner Mack Wilemon said he was told Anderson was outside of the car and had been thrown a rope to be rescued, but he couldn’t hold on.

Jonathan Weeks, a 48-year-old salesman from Plantersville who owns a vacation home near the park, said he helped pull two people to shore and tried to save Anderson.

Weeks said a strong storm had come through the area and he and

his wife went out looking around when they saw a van crossing the creek. He happened to have a rope in the tool box of his truck.

“It all happened so fast. They were in there trying to get out and panick-ing. The power was out so every-thing was dark,” Weeks recalled in a phone interview Monday.

“We threw them a rope and tied it to a tree,” Weeks said. “We got two of them to the bank and were trying to help the driver. We had him on the rope and were trying to pull him in, but I don’t think he was able to hold on.”

Art Gaines, a 69-year-old re-tiree who lives near the park, said he and his wife heard their dogs barking at the commotion.

“When we looked out the window we saw fl ashlights and then the next thing we know there was a van going down the creek, which is a misnomer, be-cause once the water gets rolling through there it’s like a small river, not a creek,” Gaines said.

Gaines called 911 and went outside to help. By then, two people had been pulled from the water and others were searching for Anderson.

Surf churned up by the storm had also proven treacherous. In Texas, a body boarder drowned after being pulled out to sea by heavy surf churned up by Lee, and the Coast Guard was search-ing for a boy swept away by rough surf off the Alabama coast.

Lee came ashore over the weekend in Louisiana, dump-ing up to a foot of rain in parts of New Orleans and other areas. Despite some street fl ooding, offi -cials said New Orleans’ 24-pump fl ood control system was doing its job. On Monday, heavy rain con-tinued to fall in Mississippi and make its way across Alabama and into Tennessee and Georgia.

“Right now it’s a big rain-maker, said Marc McAllister, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Jackson.

Lee’s remnants turn deadlyThe Associated Press

LEXINGTON, Va. (AP) — Offi cials in the rural Virginia city where Rob-ert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson are buried voted late last week to prohibit the fl y-ing of the Confederate fl ag on city-owned poles.

After a lively 2 1⁄2-hour public hearing, the Lex-ington City Council voted 4-1 to allow only U.S., Vir-ginia and city fl ags to be fl own. Personal displays of the Confederate fl ag are not affected. The Sons of Confederate Veterans, whose members showed up in force after leading a rally that turned a down-town park into a sea of

Confederate fl ags, vowed to challenge the ordinance in court.

Some speakers during the meeting said the or-dinance was an affront to the men who fought in the Civil War in defense of the South. One speak-er stayed silent during his allotted three min-utes, in memory of the Civil War dead.

But many speakers complained that the fl ag was an offensive, divisive symbol of the South’s history of slavery and shouldn’t be endorsed by the city of 7,000 people.

“The Confederate fl ag is not something we want

to see fl ying from our public property,” said city resident Marquita Dunn, who is black. “The fl ag is offensive to us.”

Most residents who spoke, both blacks and whites, opposed the ordi-nance. But H.K. Edgerton, the former president of the NAACP chapter in Ashe-ville, N.C., said he support-ed fl ying the Confederate fl ag because he wanted to honor black Confederate soldiers. Edgerton, who is black, wore a T-shirt em-blazoned with images of those black soldiers.

“What you’re going to do in banning the South-ern cross is wrong. May

God bless Dixie,” he said, amid some gasps from the audience.

Before the rally, ordi-nance opponents rallied in the city park, then marched to the hearing under a parade of Con-federate fl ags.

“I am a fi rm believer in the freedom to express our individual rights, which include fl ying the fl ag that we decide to fl y,” said Philip Way, a Civil War re-enactor dressed in a Confederate wool uniform despite the summer temperatures. “That’s freedom to me.”

Mimi Knight, watching from a wrought iron fence

as the fl ags passed, said

she thought the city ordi-nance seemed too restric-tive, noting that it also extended to fl ags from Virginia Military Institute and Washington and Lee University. Both colleges are in the city.

“These are the things that make Lexington what it is,” said Knight, who didn’t participate in the rally. “The Confederate fl ag is part of our heritage.”

The Sons of Confeder-ate Veterans organized the “Save our Flags” gathering, which offered free hot dogs and blue grass music. Speakers addressed the crowd amid supportive shouts of “Amen.”

What is the Gospel of Christ?The gospel of Jesus Christ is the theme of the New Testament. Almost every page provides correct information about Jesus Christ. That is why we encourage people to read the Bible. In its simplest terms, the gospel of Jesus is the “good news” concerning Him. In a day when there is so little “good news”, it is important to spread the “good News” of Jesus.

The gospel message is that although man is a sinner, deserving death and hell, God loved mankind enough to provide salva-tion. The Bible - “all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).” the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romas 6:23). “Being justifi ed freely by His Grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. The amazing grace of God is truly good news.

The heart of the gospel is Christ in death, burial, and resurrec-tion. The Bible - “Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles - wonders and signs” “This Jesus hath God raised up” (Acts 2:22, 32).” Therefore let all of the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucifi ed, both Lord and Christ” (Acts 2:36). The people were pricked in their heart by the “Good News”, and said, “Men and brethren, what shall we do? Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission -forgivness-of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:37-38). Peter told the people how to accept the “Good News”. The gospel - Good News - is for all people.

Faith moved many to obey: “They that gladly received the word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about 3000 souls” (Acts 2:41). The church grew rapidly as many were added to the church” (Acts 2:47) The fi rst time they heard the “Good News” of Jesus, they obeyed. Man must not delay his obedience to God. Now, don’t wait any longer. Get up, be baptized and wash away your sins, trusting Jesus who is our Saviour.

What can we learn? Obey Jesus-He is the ONLY Saviour. Read your Bible - Acts 2.

Prayer for today

JACKSON — Take off your shoes. Empty your pockets. Walk through a metal detec-tor, or get an embarrassing pat-down from a Transpor-tation Security Administra-tion agent.

It’s all part of the routine for airline passengers in the United States since the ter-rorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

The top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee feels your pain.

U.S. Rep. Bennie Thomp-son of Mississippi said he and other members of Con-gress go through the same procedures as every other passenger.

“Same lines, same incon-venience,” said Thompson, who fl ies several times a month.

“We have had to get off a plane because some anom-aly occurred that didn’t get picked up,” he said. “That’s what we do in order to guar-antee we know everyone who’s on a plane — we know every piece of cargo that’s in the hold.

“That’s still a small price to pay to get where you want to go safely.”

In an interview this past

week with The Associ-ated Press, T h o m p s o n said that while no system is failsafe, he believes the U.S. has be-come signifi -cantly more secure in the

past decade.On the morning of Sept.

11, 2001, Thompson gave a speech in Arlington, Va. He said he fi rst heard of the at-tacks when he was driving back into Washington and his wife called to ask about the plane crashes in New York. Although Thompson had been within blocks of the Pentagon, he didn’t hear the crash there — probably, he said, because he was get-ting his car from an under-ground parking garage at the time. He recalled that as he drove and spoke to his wife, he could see smoke rising from the Pentagon behind him.

“Historically, we always thought the terrorists would be in some other country,” Thompson said. “The coun-

try prided itself in being open to virtually anyone who came to the U.S., pro-vided they were legal. Very few people assumed terror-ists would try to get into the United States like the 9/11 individuals did.”

Thompson, 63, chaired the House Homeland Secu-rity Committee from 2006 through 2010, when Demo-crats held the majority. With Republicans now in the ma-jority, he’s the committee’s ranking Democrat.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security was cre-ated after 9/11, sweeping in 22 other agencies that al-ready existed. Critics see it as a bureaucratic behemoth. A report earlier this year showed that the department answers to 108 congressio-nal committees, subcom-mittees, caucuses and other groups. Thompson said then that there’s little appetite in Washington to reduce the amount of oversight.

He said this past week that the investment in training for federal, state and local law offi cers has paid off.

“To the credit of a lot of people, we’ve been success-ful to the point that since

9/11 we’ve not had a single successful terrorist incident on the homeland,” Thomp-son said. “We’ve had the Times Square situation and we had the Christmas Day person, but they were caught. Some argue, ‘Well, they almost made it.’ But they didn’t.”

Tight boarding procedures for airplanes will remain, and rail passengers can ex-pect heightened security in the next few years, Thomp-son said. Still, he said: “We can’t hire enough police and other professionals to guar-antee nothing will happen going forward.”

Thompson said everyday people can help keep the U.S. safe by following the Department of Homeland Security’s slogan, “See some-thing. Say something.” That is, if something looks out of place, report it to authorities.

“To a large extent, that has proven to work,” Thompson said. “One example is the Times Square incident. It was a vendor who saw the guy acting strange and re-ported it.”

Thompson says U.S. more secure

We have seen the future, and it went bankrupt.

If the praises of high-rank-ing Obama administration offi cials were a viable busi-ness plan, the solar-panel maker Solyndra would be an industrial juggernaut. Vice President Joe Biden insisted that the jobs created by the California-based fi rm would “allow America to compete and to lead like we did in the 20th century.”

In a visit to Solyndra in May 2010, President Barack Obama called it “a testament to American ingenuity and dynamism.”

He all but redefi ned the traditional statement of American-ness to encom-pass motherhood, apple pie and the conversion of sun-light into electricity through cylindrical thin-fi lm solar cells, the specialty of Solyn-dra.

Obama and Biden were literally invested in Solyn-dra’s success. It got a half-billion-dollar federal loan guarantee, the fi rst in a high-ly vaunted Department of Energy green-jobs program as part of the stimulus. This was supposed to be the new economic model, govern-ment and its favored indus-tries cooperating to lead the country into a green, politi-cally approved recovery.

The showcase fi rm is

now fi ling for Chapter 11 in an em-b a r r a s s i n g blow to the premises of Obamanom-ics. At least the Obama administra-tion can’t be accused of

practicing industrial policy the old-fashioned way and “picking winners.” It is evi-dently quite ready to pick losers, too.

A Department of Energy spokesman explained wanly, “The company was consid-ered extraordinarily innova-tive as recently as 2010.” In-novative, maybe; profi table, no. It never turned a profi t since its founding in 2005. In the still “extraordinarily innovative” year of 2010, it canceled an attempted IPO and axed its CEO.

Plenty of venture capital-ists made foolish bets on Solyndra, but the federal government was the most reckless. The Obama admin-istration wanted to throw money at the likes of Solyn-dra without due diligence, or much diligence at all. In 2008, the Government Ac-countability Offi ce warned that the Energy Department loan program -- created in a 2005 energy bill -- had inad-

equate safeguards.Nonetheless, within 60

days of becoming energy sec-retary, Steven Chu put Uncle Sam on the hook for Solyn-dra. According to The Wall Street Journal, $527 million of the $535 million federal loan has been drawn down, with a bankruptcy court set to determine how much the feds will recover. Chu is for-tunate that taxpayers can’t bring shareholder lawsuits against the federal govern-ment.

President George W. Bush was fl ayed for the Enron bankruptcy, based on his tenuous ties to the fi rm. If the same media rules ap-plied, Solyndra would be Obama’s Enron, given his active promotion of the com-pany and his lavish funding of it. A prodigious Obama-Biden fundraiser is a major backer of the failed concern.

Solyndra’s crash comes during a wave of solar bank-ruptcies. The government’s enthusiasm for solar out-stripped that of consumers. Spain provided something of a precursor. It massively subsidized a solar industry that collapsed when the gov-ernment realized its gener-osity was unsustainable and cut back. One Spanish news-paper had a headline, “Spain admits that the green econo-my sold to Obama is a ruin.”

China is picking up the pieces. China not only cod-dles solar fi rms, it inherently is a lower-cost manufactur-ing environment. Its cheap, simple solar panels are more marketable then the more sophisticated version at-tempted by Solyndra.

Our subsidies for the purchase of solar panels are often used to buy Chi-nese products. Inevitably, the U.S. solar industry will seek the trifecta of govern-ment support achieved by the boondoggle fuel ethanol -- subsidizing its production, mandating its use and bar-ring its foreign competitors.

The stakes in the battle to manufacture solar panels are exceedingly small. Solar ac-counts for less than 1 percent of the electricity generated in the U.S.

The Obama administra-tion’s fervency for it has more to do with the romance of its clean, postindustrial image than with economics. Obama said last year, “The true engine of economic growth will always be com-panies like Solyndra.”

If that were so, it never would have needed half a bil-lion of our dollars in the fi rst place.

Solyndra — embarrassing Obamanomics blow

Love me some boys!The philosopher Plato once wrote: “Of all

the animals, the boy is the most unmanage-able.”

You know what? Plato was defi nitely smarter than I am, but he was wrong. I taught school and also had two boys of my own, and I’m here today to tout the ador-able qualities, including manageability, of little boys.

The recent Cardinals weekend in St. Louis with our 9-year-old grandsons, Wilkins and Jacks, was totally without tears and drama. They enjoyed running through the hotel lobby and they were particular about meals – other than that, they were angels, as easily managed as pups on a leash.

These two still don’t mind holding adults’ hands when crossing busy streets. They’re funny, friendly, lovable, and close observers of the world around them. Not only that, they’re smart kids. They kept us entertained the whole weekend.

For example, hubby G-Man and I were a tad apprehensive about the long drive to and from St. Louis. We shouldn’t have worried. The boys were both immersed in books about the Titanic. They know more about the Titanic than hubby G-Man once knew about his long gone bass boat.

“Bebe,” said Wilkins, “did you know that hundreds more people could have been saved when the Titanic sank if they’d just fi lled up the life boats? Each lifeboat could hold about 65 people, and some of the life-boats were lowered into the water with only 30 or about that, so that was really a shame.”

“Yeah,” said Jacks, eager to contribute his Titanic knowledge. “Here’s what I think is suspicious. All the kids but one in fi rst class were saved, but only 27 of the 79 kids in third class were saved. Something fi shy go-ing on there.”

“Part of the problem for the men,” Wilkins said, “was that they were all about that ‘women fi rst’ thing.”

“Yeah,” said Jacks, “like Caleb.”“What about Caleb?” said Wilkins. “You

talking about Caleb in your class?”“Uh huh. Caleb sat at my table last year

and he thought girls always had to go fi rst, so that meant I had to let ‘em go fi rst too, and that meant we were always the last ones to get anywhere. That’s what happened to the men on the Titanic.”

G-Man and I just grinned, listened and learned. Exhausting the Titanic topic after a couple of hours, they, of course, began to discuss baseball, cautioning me about my ballgame conduct.

“Bebe,” said Jacks, “be sure you don’t lean over the rail to try to catch a home run. Seri-ously, if you do, they’ll throw you out of the ballpark.”

I promised. And I didn’t.Friday night’s game was a win for the Car-

dinals, and the next afternoon was exciting also. Jacks and Wilkins were allowed to go down on the fi eld to watch the Cards take batting practice. Did we have to discipline them for climbing where they shouldn’t climb, for being loud and unruly, for being . . . boys? Not at all. They were little gentle-men, and we were proud.

After the Saturday night game, we took a carriage ride and passed a group of good-looking girls on a street corner. As we passed, I heard the girls scream with laugh-ter, pointing at us. Why? Wilkins was doing the telephone thing, pinkie at his mouth, thumb at his ear, mouthing silently to the girls, “CALL ME!”

Obviously, the weekend was one good time after another . . . and maybe you had to be there to appreciate the humor. I know, grandparents always think THEIRS are the cutest and most amusing – but they are, aren’t they?

Still, I’ll defend boys in general all day long. They may be made of “snakes and snails and puppy dog tails,” but they’re more fun than a good stomp in a room full of bubble wrap.

And really, ask me anything about the Ti-tanic. Go ahead. Thanks to two sweethearts, I know some stuff.

Was Plato right? Are boys unmanageable?

Thank you, gracious God, for the food you provide every day and for your great love that increases the little that we have. Amen.

Daily Corinthian • Tuesday, September 6, 2011 • 5

In Ayden, N.C., a man dies in his recliner, rid-ing out Hurricane Irene at home because he didn’t want to leave his Chihua-hua at home alone.

In Newport News, Va., a falling tree crushes an 11-year-old boy, sparing the mother who tried to protect him.

In Whitemarsh Town-ship, Pa., a supermarket bookkeeper determined to make it to work for her 4:30 a.m. shift drives into fl ood-waters and drowns trying to walk the fi nal mile.

And in Rutland, Vt., a public-works employee “conscientious to a fault” dies in a river’s raging fl oodwaters and his adult son is swept away as they check on the city’s water reservoir.

Hurricane Irene, which spared the East’s major cities from large-scale destruction, was a killer storm, nonetheless.

Forecast to be the big-gest in decades to hit the Eastern Seaboard, it trig-gered evacuations, airport closures and the unprec-edented shutdown of New York’s mass transit system.

But unlike major hur-ricanes that kill dozens of victims at a time, this storm claimed a victim here and a victim there on its angry swirl through 13 states as it spun toward Canada — at least 46 U.S. deaths in all.

“Water is the No. 1 kill-er,” retired National Hur-ricane Center Director Max Mayfi eld had warned Friday afternoon as Irene took aim on the East. “That’s going to cause the greatest loss of life.”

Many of Irene’s victims did die in furious storm waters, while others were

killed by toppled trees, fi res, carbon monoxide poison-ings and electrocutions.

■ ■ ■

By 3 a.m. Saturday, Irene was losing steam off North Carolina’s coast. Weakened to a Category 1 storm, its 90 mph winds still had plenty of punch.

A hurricane warning was issued and a state of emergency declared — but Timothy Gene Avery wasn’t about to leave his home in Ayden, much less his dogs.

Avery, 50, a bachelor, was sitting in his navy blue recliner, following Irene’s path on TV. His family and a friend had urged him to take safe shelter, but he didn’t want to leave Maya, his Labrador mix, and his Chihuahua Pepperoni, who would be spooked if he left them.

“The friend said, ‘Tim, why don’t you stay with me? I have a brick build-ing. Bring your dogs. You’ll be safe. Ride out the storm,” said cousin Spencer Gay, 52. “But Tim didn’t want to go. He was especially worried about his Chihuahua.”

At about noon, a wind-blown tree snapped and fell on his home, crushing him where he sat. On Sun-day, his parents and sister drove to his house because they hadn’t heard from him. They saw the tree.

This week, friends and family gathered in his parents’ house, bringing food and swapping sto-ries before his burial in Winterville Cemetery, a tiny pasture in his eastern North Carolina town.

They remembered him as a “free spirit” who played drums in country rock bands, volunteered at a Christian food pantry and sometimes took in

abandoned animals.Now his family is trying

to place Maya and Pep-peroni.

“I can tell the dogs miss him,” Gay said. “It’s so sad. They keep looking for him.”

■ ■ ■

About 200 miles up the coast, winds were lashing Newport News, Va., keep-ing Zahir Robinson from getting to his karate lessons.

The honor-roll sixth grader, on pace to earn a yellow belt in karate eight weeks ahead of schedule, was with his mom, Angel Anthony, in their two-sto-ry apartment.

Winds howling around noon, the two curled up together for a nap — she closest to the window, just in case.

When the tree fell, it crashed through the bed-room, trapping Zahir. Anthony made it out un-harmed.

“I was yelling, ‘Please somebody help me, please fi nd my baby,”’ Anthony told The Daily Press of Newport News. “I couldn’t see him. I said, ‘Zahir, talk to your mom. Let mom hear you. Let mom hear you.’ He didn’t make a sound, he didn’t make a sound.”

Less than an hour later, her only child’s body was found in the debris of the home.

At his viewing in a Hamp-ton, Va., funeral home, the youngster was laid out in a pinstripe suit, purple shirt and striped tie, near a photo of him in his No. 11 basket-ball jersey. His white karate uniform was draped across his casket.

Karate instructor Tom Daroja remembered how Zahir had smiled and pa-tiently repeated himself when Daroja fi rst mispro-nounced his name.

“I said Zahir? I got you,

like Zaire the country,” Daroja said. “He said ‘That’s close enough.’ It wasn’t like he got annoyed with me — That kind of told me right then and there he’s going to make one of my black belts.”

■ ■ ■

A weakening Irene, a tropical storm, headed to-ward New England Sunday, its power still deceptively strong, its torrential rains feeding angry fl ash fl oods.

In Rutland, Vt., water treatment plant operator Michael J. Garofano was worried about the storm’s impact on his city’s drink-ing water when Irene be-gan its destructive assault on Vermont.

That was Garofano all over, say those who knew him. Sometimes quiet, of-ten gruff, always commit-ted to doing his job right.

“No sizzle or frills be-yond that,” said Frank Urso, his brother-in-law. “He was the consummate Mr. Fix-it type of guy who could fi x anything.”

A 30-year city employ-ee, he was known to co-workers as demanding and honest.

“He was very opinion-ated about the water sup-ply,” said Alan Shelvey, the city’s commissioner of public works. “Every-thing was black and white with him. There were no chances taken, no almost good enough. It had to be top notch.”

Nobody told him to go check on Mendon Brook, which feeds the reservoir and the water plant. At about 1:30 p.m. Sunday, he headed out in the rain with his son, Michael G. Garofano, 25.

No one knows what happened next. Family and friends believe a riv-erbank collapsed beneath them, plunging them into

the raging brook.■ ■ ■

Irene’s winds and wrath left millions without pow-er, including 300,000 homes and businesses in Maine. One of them was a summer home on Sebago Lake in Raymond owned by Lewis Somers III, 85, and wife Elizabeth, 84, of the Philadelphia suburb of Lafayette Hill, Pa.

Married 60 years, he was a successful business-man who had run two companies — BioChem Technology and Harmac Medical Products — be-fore retiring. She was an avid gardener, a volunteer at the Morris Arboretum and active at the Philadel-phia Museum of Art.

The couple, who sup-ported many arts and cultural organizations in Philadelphia, had recently given $3 million to the Wil-liam Penn Charter School in Philadelphia, where Somers graduated in 1944.

For decades, they were summer visitors to the Se-bago Lake area, where their children attended summer camps. The couple built a lakeside house in the 1980s, equipping it with a propane generator system in the basement, to use when nor’easters and other storms disrupted power.

On Tuesday — two days after this storm had passed — a neighbor went

to check on them. Lewis Somers was dead in the living room; Betty Somers was found sitting in a chair in a fi rst-fl oor bedroom.

Investigators blame carbon monoxide from the propane generator.

■ ■ ■

Death came in other ways, too. A Connecticut canoeist died after capsiz-ing on a fl ooded street. A 55-year-old Florida surfer died when he was tossed off his board.

In Maryland, another generator’s carbon mon-oxide killed a man and an 85-year-old woman died when a tree fell and crashed into her sunroom.

One of seven New Jer-sey victims was a 47-year-old man sucked into a drain pipe while clearing debris at a nursery.

For some, good inten-tions led to tragedy.

In New York, a man was electrocuted in Spring Val-ley when he tried to help a child in a fl ooded street.

BLUE SPRINGS — At the 2 million-square-foot Toyota Motor Manufac-turing Mississippi plant, the fi rst Corollas have al-ready been made.

But they’re not for sale just yet.

The test cars are works in progress, allowing team members — Toyo-ta’s term for its employees — to put their knowledge and training to use in anticipation of the long-awaited day when the fi rst production-ready, sellable Corollas roll off the line.

In fact, in just a few weeks, TMMMS will have a “line-off” ceremony to mark the offi cial start of production at the plant.

It’s an event North-east Mississippi has an-ticipated eagerly for more than four years. And the project had some changes along the way.

Originally, the plant was to open in late 2009 or early 2010 to produce

the Highlander SUV. In mid-2008, Toyota switched gears and said it would build the popu-lar Prius hybrid instead, pushing the plant’s open-ing date to late 2010.

Then in December 2008, with the global eco-nomic crisis blooming, Toyota said it would delay the opening of the plant indefi nitely, at least until conditions improved.

Finally, in June of last year, the company said it was resuming operations — and building the Co-rolla instead, with an eye toward opening this fall.

And when Toyota Mis-sissippi does churn out its fi rst vehicle, a new eco-nomic era offi cially begins in the region.

“Everyone I’ve talked to is anxious and wait-ing with high anticipation the start of production for Toyota,” said David Rum-barger, president and CEO of Tupelo’s Community Development Foundation.

Long the bastion of fur-niture manufacturing in

the state, Northeast Mis-sissippi will be building cars, along with couches, for the fi rst time.

While Toyota hasn’t said offi cially when pro-duction begins, state and local offi cials don’t doubt it will happen before the year ends.

According to Whit Hughes, deputy director of the Mississippi Devel-opment Authority, “We’re confi dent that all is on schedule for the start of production in the near future. ... We could not be more enthusiastic about things being on track at Blue Springs and the start of production.”

Emily Holland, external affairs specialist for TM-MMS, said, “Construc-tion, installation, hiring and training are all on track, and we look for-ward to starting produc-tion later this year.”

Some 40,000 people have applied for jobs at TMMMS, which now em-ploys about 950 workers. About 600 more will be hired by the end of the year.

“To date, we have been very pleased with the quality of team members we have been able to at-tract,” said David Co-penhaver, vice president of administration at the plant.

And many of the em-ployees who have been hired so far are local faces.

“Ninety percent of hourly team members are from Mississippi and 42 percent of hourly team members are from Ponto-toc, Union and Lee coun-ties,” Holland said.

The plant will run two shifts for production

and skilled maintenance workers, from 6:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 3:15 a.m.

Holland said one of two shifts has been hired, with hiring ongoing for the second.

The hiring won’t stop after December.

Toyota Mississippi will employ 2,000 workers once the plant is fully op-erational, expected some-time next spring. And at optimal output, the plant will be able to produce a vehicle about every 90 seconds, or 150,000 ve-hicles a year.

In addition, eight com-panies have so far said they will be suppliers for TMMMS, adding another 1,500 to 2,000 jobs.

Three Northeast Mis-sissippi suppliers — Auto Parts Manufacturing Mis-sissippi in Baldwyn, Toyo-ta Boshoku Mississippi in Dorsey, Diversity-Vuteq in New Albany and Blue Springs — have hired 500 workers so far, and look to hire 400 more.

Toyota itself has invest-ed $800 million in Toyota Mississippi, and MDA’s Hughes said the company has been a good partner with the state.

“Together, we’ve worked through some challenges,” he said. “But it’s been a matter-of-fact process with open, direct and clear communica-tion.

“At the end of the day, we have shared interests. We want them to be as successful as possible and as a result, we’ll be the benefi ciaries of the positive economic engine from Toyota and its sup-pliers.”

Companies working to restore power

JACKSON — Authorities say hundreds of people in Mississippi were without power because of the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee.

Entergy Mississippi spokesman Joey Lee says that as of Monday afternoon, the company had 4,000 customers without power in the central part of the state.

Other utilities reported scattered outages, though they said they’re making progress in re-storing customers’ electricity.

 Old Walmart space to get $3.2M upgrade

OXFORD — The University of Mississippi will spend $3.2 million to renovate space in the old Walmart building in Oxford.

The Oxford Eagle reports that the makeover to the space that used to house Walmart in the Ox-ford Mall will begin in October.

Ole Miss officials say the public bid process will begin Sept. 9 and construction is scheduled to start by Oct. 31.

The project will include preparing about 40,000 square feet of the existing building for future of-fice space.

Construction will last about 180 days and is ex-pected to be completed by May 2012.

 Deputies to appeal trespassing charges

BROOKHAVEN — Two Lawrence County deputies say they’ll appeal a trespassing convictions stem-ming from charges they entered a Lincoln County man’s property without the proper authority.

A Lincoln County judge on Aug 24 found Scott Stromo guilty of trespassing and Christian Davis guilty of trespassing and disturbing the peace. Both pleaded not guilty. Both were fined.

The convictions arose from an incident that oc-curred Aug. 20, 2010. Stromo and Davis were on duty with the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Depart-ment and were investigating an attempted four-wheeler theft that occurred in Lawrence County.

 Panel upholds bar of videotape

JACKSON — A federal appeals court says a Mississippi court did not err in barring jurors from seeing a videotape made by a former butcher who had claimed it might have prevented him get-ting a death sentence.

Gary Carl Simmons Jr. was convicted of capital murder in 1997 in coastal Jackson County and sentenced to death for chopping up the body of a Texas drug dealer and raping the victim’s girlfriend.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A pilot was communicating by radio with her boyfriend before their planes collided in the air over Alaska last week, killing him, a federal investi-gator said.

The two pilots took off from dif-ferent western Alaska villages Fri-day but met up in the air on the way to Bethel, Alaska, National Trans-portation Safety Board investigator Clint Johnson told the Anchorage Daily News Sunday.

Kristen Sprague, 26, was fl ying a Cessna 207 operated by rural freight carrier Ryan Air, according to Alaska State Troopers. She made an emer-gency landing with one airplane wing seriously damaged and wasn’t hurt.

The other plane, a Cessna 208 Caravan, crashed and burst into fl ames Friday around 1:30 p.m. near the village of Nightmute, Alas-ka, about 400 miles west of An-chorage, Alaska, killing Scott Veal, 24, of Kenai, Alaska. Each was the only person onboard.

It was the state’s third midair crash since July. A federal accident investi-

gator has said two earlier midair col-lisions were marked by the same fac-tor: aircraft that were diffi cult to spot amid mountainous terrain.

In Friday’s collision, the two pilots were traveling together to Bethel and were communicating on a prearranged radio frequency while in the air, Johnson said. It’s too early in the investigation to say whether pilot error was a factor in the crash, he added.

Sprague had taken off from the Bering Sea village of Tununak, Alas-ka. She was headed to Bethel with about 50 pounds of aluminum cans for a recycling program, said Wilfred Ryan, president of Ryan Air.

Veal left from nearby Toksook Bay, Alaska, in an airplane operated by Grant Aviation, an air taxi and cargo carrier. Efforts by the Anchor-age Daily News to speak with a Grant representative were unsuccessful.

Sprague, of Idaho, told the inves-tigator she was dating Veal, who reportedly was going through a di-vorce, Johnson said.

“They meet up in the air,” John-son told the Anchorage Daily News. “There’s some maneuvering that’s

done en route at about 1,200 feet (above sea level). The 207 pilot los-es track of where the 208 is.”

Sprague remembered saying over the radio something to the ef-fect that she couldn’t see him. “The next thing she knows is his airplane strikes her right wing, and nearly severs the right wing,” Johnson said.

The bigger plane passed under-neath the Cessna 207 and came out on the left side of it, Johnson said. Sprague saw it spiral down, hit the tundra, and burst into fl ames, Johnson said. She managed to land her plane on soft rolling tundra, about a mile away.

Wreckage from the Cessna 208 was strewn over a half-mile or more.

Johnson said investigators still need to review data collected on the Ryan Air plane and that the other plane didn’t collect similar data.

Veal was from Southern California and always dreamed of becoming an Alaska bush pilot, his grandfather, Robert Veal, told the Anchorage newspaper. “It’s in the family. His father and myself are both fl ight in-structors,” the grandfather said by phone from Winchester, Calif.

Man killed in crash with girlfriendThe Associated Press

DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. — The remnants of Trop-ical Storm Lee dumped steady rain Monday on the already soggy South, causing scattered fl ooding and power outages and forcing the evacuation of an apartment building in Mississippi’s capital city.

There were no new re-ports of injuries related to the storm, which was downgraded overnight from a tropical depression. Still, forecasters warned the slow-moving system could cause inland fl ooding in ar-eas with hills or mountains in the coming days.

By Monday, the heavi-est rain was in east Mis-sissippi and pushing into Alabama.

“Right now it’s a big rain-maker,” said Marc McAl-lister, a meteorologist with National Weather Service in Jackson, Miss.

Chris Mims, a spokes-man for the city of Jack-son, said 45 families were evacuated from Camelot Apartments when water from a fl ooded creek got close to the building. He said the families were taken to a storm shelter.

A possible tornado early Monday damaged

some trees in central Mis-sissippi’s Smith County, and there were scattered reports of fl ooded homes and streets in Mississippi, authorities said. At least three possible tornadoes hit south Mississippi on Sunday, damaging a few homes. Another tornado had been reported Sun-day in Mobile County, Ala., where it knocked down power lines.

The storm dumped 8 to 10 inches of rain in central Mississippi before slack-ing off as it weakened and pushed to the east.

The most rain recorded

was 15.43 inches in Hold-en, La., said Mike Shields, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Slidell, La. He said New Orleans got as much as a foot in places.

Just west of the Florida Panhandle, Alabama’s main beaches in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach alternately fi lled and emptied of tourists as squalls from Lee moved across the coast on Labor Day. Many vacationers spent the morning pack-ing for the drive north to-ward heavy storms mov-ing across the region.

Beaches were empty about 35 miles west on Dauphin Island as waves broke beneath houses standing on stilts and splintered lumber fl oated in the surf. Much of the island’s main road was fl ooded and covered with sand, jellyfi sh and foam washed in by Lee. Cus-tomers trickled in to the town’s largest store on what should have been a busy day.

“It’s been kind of boring,” said Tabitha Miller, a clerk at Ship and Shore. “It’s not killing us though since we’re the only gig in town.”

Obama says GOP must put country before party

DETROIT — Presi-dent Barack Obama used a boisterous Labor Day rally to put congressional Republi-cans on the spot, chal-lenging them to place the country’s interests above all else and vote to create jobs and put the economy back on a path toward growth. “Show us what you’ve got,” he said.

In a partial preview of the jobs speech he’s delivering to Congress Thursday night, Obama said roads and bridges nationwide need re-building and more than 1 million unemployed construction workers are itching to “get dirty” making the repairs. He portrayed Congress as an obstacle to getting that work done.

Congress returns from its summer re-cess this week and the faltering economy and jobs shortage are expected to be a domi-nant theme.

 Wall Street braces for a rocky day

LONDON — World stock markets took a beating Monday over fears that the U.S. economy was heading back into a recession just as the European debt crisis was heating up and the eurozone’s economic indicators were slumping.

Any troubles in the world’s largest economy cast a long shadow over the markets, and a re-port Friday that the U.S. economy failed to add any new jobs in August caused European and Asian stock markets to sink sharply Monday.

But the news from Europe was also dis-couraging. Wall Street, which was closed Mon-day due to the Labor Day holiday, braced for losses Tuesday after the yields in so-called peripheral eurozone countries — Greece, Italy and Spain — rose sharply against those of Germany, whose bonds are widely con-sidered a safe haven.

 Katia grows to Category 3

MIAMI — Hurricane Katia has grown to a Category 3 storm as it moves across the At-lantic Ocean.

On Monday after-noon, Katia’s maxi-mum sustained winds had increased to 116 mph. That makes Ka-tia a major hurricane, and some additional strengthening is ex-pected later in the day.

Hurricane specialist Todd Kimberlain says it’s looking less likely that Katia will hit land but that wind from the storm could still affect the U.S. East Coast as it moves north. Kimber-lain also says the Mid-Atlantic and New Eng-land regions should still keep an eye on Katia.

Katia is centered about 495 miles south of Bermuda and is mov-ing northwest near 12 mph.

 Wildfire destroys 300 homes near Texas capital

BASTROP, Texas — A wildfire burning south-east of Austin, Texas, destroyed about 300 homes, forced the evacuation of many oth-ers and was advancing unchecked on Monday through parched ranch-land along a 16-mile

front, authorities said.The fire had black-

ened more than 17,500 acres since it started on Sunday and was the largest of the dozens burning in the drought-stricken state. It was headed away from the state capital, some 30 miles to the northwest, and consuming the wa-ter-starved woods and brush with such feroc-ity that it was deemed unsafe to fight from the ground, Texas Forest Service spokeswoman Jan Amen said.

“It’s a monster and it’s zero percent con-tained,” Amen said.

Instead, the state deployed its firefight-ing air fleet, including National Guard heli-copters and four heavy tanker planes. It also summoned a tanker from South Dakota.

Emergency shelters were set up for those forced to evacuate their homes. About 30 people spent the night at a Bastrop church, waiting to learn if they had lost everything.

 Fire sparked by crash threatens 650 homes

TEHACHAPI, Calif. — Fire officials are re-porting calmer weather as firefighters battle a wildfire that has forced 650 homes in a Califor-nia mountain commu-nity to flee.

Kern County fire de-partment spokesman Cary Wright says fore-casters predicted wind speeds of 10- to 15 mph on Monday, but officials have yet to see that.

He says the weather has been favorable for crews at the blaze, which has burned more than 7 square miles.

Wright says 650 homes south of Te-hachapi a city of 8,000 south of Bakersfield, are under evacuation orders. Another 150 outbuildings are threat-ened. The fire was ignited Sunday by a deadly plane crash.

A separate brush fire sparked by a barn fire in northern Los Ange-les County is threaten-ing an unknown num-ber of homes Monday afternoon.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Though some have said you have nerves of steel, when you are tired, you can get spooked easily. For in-stance, tonight you’ll get a glimpse of a red flag and run the other way.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone is talking an interesting talk to you, and you wonder wheth-er this person can put action behind these words. Test the waters in some small way before jumping in.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When someone has a problem, you feel a responsibility to help. That’s why you won’t deal with it when it’s con-venient for you -- you’ll handle it in the moment of need. Your ethics are firmly in place.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll take pride in a job well done, even though you didn’t technically do the work yourself. Cultivating a win-ning team is a commendable talent, though. You certainly deserve some of the credit.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The most dramatic change will also be the simplest one. Instead of trying to get yourself to change in a million ways at once, pick one small, easy-to-follow rule. For instance, don’t go online while you’re supposed to be working!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You won’t let go of an idea. You’ll work through it, examining it from every angle to figure out what it’s really about and, more importantly, how useful it really is to you now.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stress will act as your friend. It will be an alarm clock, letting you know that it’s time to rise to the occasion and be your best self. Stress is making you strong.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You want to project a more glamorous image. Gearing up to do this will put you in touch with what exactly it is you have to offer and why you do it like no one else could.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are genuinely curious about your leaders. Because of your in-terest, you will become aligned in some powerful way. You’ll make an impression and a difference.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your passion for music and art will bring you together with fellow en-thusiasts. You’ll share information and gain more than knowledge -- you’ll have a sense of belonging.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be dealing with an ever-evolv-ing set of rules and regulations. It’s not the bureaucracy that makes things complicated; it’s the way you think about it. A funny friend will be your lifeline.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The body can’t help but give in to the passage of time. But the mind can be eternally young. You’ll revel in your youth without regard to the number of years you’ve been on the earth.
