Brose Autoplex believes in Corinth.

The dealership, part of the community since 1987, is un-dergoing a major renovation to its business at South Parkway and U.S. Highway 72.

“It’s long overdue,” said deal-ership president Grant Brose. “The good thing is we are get-ting the latest design manufac-turers have to offer.”

The new dual design calls for the dealership to have both a

Nissan and Chrysler side under one roof.

“We are the only dealership in our district with the dual de-sign layout,” said Brose.

Brose’s district encompasses 11 other dealerships from Mem-phis, Tenn., to west Alabama and west Tennessee.

The showroom will be the same just separated into Nissan and Chrysler vehicles.

Hoyt Hayes Construction of Jackson Tenn. is in charge of the project which is to be com-pleted in around 6-8 months.

“They have done several of the Nissan and Chrysler build-ings,” added Brose.

Several new things are planned for the restructuring of the dealership, according to Brose. Plans call for a new:

■ Showroom that will be ex-tended 10 feet.

“A lot of dealerships don’t have the showroom space we do,” said Brose. “Most have space for only one or two vehi-cles inside, where we will have

The Corinth School District Board of Trustees approved the district’s 2014-15 budget this week.

Even though the budget does not include a request to increase ad valorem taxes, the district will be requesting an increase in the dollar amount they receive from the city.

“We drafted a resolution

that spells out exactly where the money we are requesting will go to,” said Superinten-dent Lee Childress. “The total fi gure is a little over $100,000 more than what we requested last year.”

Knowing your history will energize your soul.

Since 2003, the Black History Museum has been the guard-ian of timeless secrets, well-preserved artifacts and cultural identity.

Housed in the former resi-dence of William Dakota and Adrienne Combs–Webb, the museum has drawn visitors from as far away as England.

Guests are set at ease as they are greeted at the front door by Museum Volunteer Frieda Mill-er. Her warm smile, infectious laughter and hometown hospi-tality make for a delightful visit.

Fond of telling stories and reliving history, Frieda eagerly shares her passion for African-American history and the roots

it holds in Corinth.“The museum once served as

a halfway house,” said Miller. “It was eventually repossessed by the city and then turned into a museum.”

With modest beginnings, The Black History Museum began when a few elderly men and women got together a collection of historical artifacts from their homes. The items included newspaper articles, story quilts, old photographs, artwork and other memorabilia.

“Once I started helping, it was hard to stop. Now you can’t drag me out of here,” said Mill-er who enjoys meeting and vis-iting with patrons.

As she fl ipped through the guestbook, the excited volun-teer recounted some of her most memorable guests.

Out of all the visitors she’s had it was a young Boy Scout who truly captured her heart.

Puzzling over why schools were segregated and African Americans referred to as “col-ored,” the young boy failed to process the information.

“It just blew his mind. He just kept asking why,” said Miller as she pondered the scout’s in-nocent and inquisitive nature. “That boy just made my life.”

Proudly sporting a museum T-shirt, she said she hoped ev-eryone would purchase one to further the cause and help keep the building open.

“We decided to sell them as part of our summer fund-raiser since money has been tight,” she said. “Whether its for your-

four … everything will be laid out with a purpose.”

■ New front fascia with the latest design elements from Nissan and Chrysler

■ Larger customer waiting lounge

■ Service write-up area for quicker customer service

■ An overhaul of parts area and business offi ce

Another possible change once everything is complete is the dealership could possibly

change its entrance.“Once everything is done it

will be a lot nicer for the cus-tomer and a more relaxed at-mosphere,” said the company president. “It will also be a lot better to look at when driving by on Highway 72.”

Brose’s business roots trace back to 1977, when Marvin Brose purchased a new car dealership in southern Ohio. When he began searching for a new place to build a business, he was drawn to Corinth’s size and potential for growth. In

1987, he and his sons, Greg and Grant Brose, opened the cur-rent location as a General Mo-tors dealership.

“The building was fi rst built for a Chevrolet dealership in 1977,” said Grant Brose. “When we came here in 1987 we brought in Chrysler and then in 1995 we brought Nissan on board.”

Brose started with 25,000 square feet. Today the business has extended to close to 30,000 square feet.

Thought was given to adding

a separate location instead of the dual design, he said.

“We looked at other property, but we felt like we have the best location in Corinth,” he said. “Why move when we are al-ready established?”

The new design is part of the company’s trust in the commu-nity, according to the dealer-ship president.

“We have been here since 1987 and we believe in Corinth,” he said. “Because of that faith this substantial amount project isn’t a big leap

of faith for us.”Business hasn’t been affected

by construction.“We are fully operational,”

said Brose. “The business hours are the same and the construc-tion crew has made it easier to work through.”

A peek in the car business has made the timing ideal to the re-design.

“Our best Nissan month since 1995 was a couple of months ago,” said Brose. “Now is a good time with the uptick in busi-ness.”

Pastor Walter “Chick” McGill, 68, a former Corinth family counselor, is walking coast to coast, carrying a large American fl ag.

When he reaches the Pacifi c coast, the historic fl ag will be the fi rst one ever to be hand-carried “from sea to shining sea.” The Tennessee pas-tor will be the second-oldest male in history to make the 3200-mile cross-country trek.

“The Cross-country Flagman” began his pe-destrian journey from Kill Devil Hills, N.C., on April 23 and expects to reach his fi nal destination in Santa Monica, Calif., by his 69th birthday in February. Af-ter completing over 1,000

miles on foot, McGill will walk through Corinth on Tuesday and continue on his way to Memphis. He salutes every passing mo-torist as a gesture of honor and respect to his fellow Americans and seeks com-munity involvement in the cause.

Calling this project the TransAmerican Cross-walk 2014, McGill is pro-moting “a new birth of freedom and integrity in America, calling attention to the Ten Command-ments, the Golden Rule, and the nation’s founding documents.” He also gives a memento of the walk to mayors in each town along the walk route.

district will also pay $255,000 on a regular three mill levy note, $103,000 to support vocational programs and $1,010,000 for a special levy to pay a portion of the princi-pal and interest on district in-debtedness.

“The additional funds re-quested will help us cover any new property that has been added to the tax rolls,” Chil-

dress said. “Just like we have in the past, we are asking the city to leave the millage where it is.”

The changes will not affect the tax payer, unless improvements have been made to a property or a reappraisal has been per-formed on the property.

“Changes to a person’s homestead status might also cause the tax to increase or de-crease, in some cases,” added Childress.

Alcorn Central High School graduate, By-ron Ellis was recently awarded a $2,000 col-lege scholarship for her outstanding leadership qualities in the Teens Against Tobacco Use (TATU) program.

Ellis will use the schol-arship for his upcoming year at Freed-Hardeman University. Project Di-rector of the Mississippi Tobacco Free Coalition of Alcorn and Tippah Counties, Emily Mc-Grath and Janet Chism, TATU Sponsor, were in-strumental in providing the program for the stu-

dents at Alcorn Central High School that made it possible for Ellis to be el-igible for the scholarship.

Developed by the American Lung Asso-ciation and based on research about smok-ing prevention and the consequences of smok-ing, TATU is designed specifi cally for teens as a peer-mentoring program

and youth empowerment program. TATU teens serve as role models for younger children, teach-ing them the benefi ts of not using tobacco prod-ucts. They present their messages to kids or oth-ers in the community, fo-cusing on four key mes-sages:

■ The majority of teens and adults do not smoke.

■ The tobacco industry lies.

■ Tobacco is addictive and deadly.

■ Teens can make a difference.

For more information regarding how you can become involved with a TATU group in your community, contact Em-ily Austin, Health Pro-motions Manager, of the American Lung As-sociation in Mississippi at 601-206-5010 or toll free at 1-800-LUNG-USA. TATU is funded by a grant from the Missis-sippi State Department of Health.

Today is Sunday, August 17, the 229th day of 2014. There are 136 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On August 17, 1969, Hurricane Camille slammed into the Mississippi coast as a Catego-ry 5 storm that was blamed for 256 U.S. deaths, three in Cuba.

On this date:

In 1807, Robert Fulton’s North River Steamboat began heading up the Hudson River on its suc-cessful round trip between New York and Albany.

In 1863, Federal batteries and ships began bombarding Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor dur-ing the Civil War, but the Confederates managed to hold on despite several days of pounding.

In 1915, a mob in Cobb County, Georgia, lynched Jewish businessman Leo Frank, whose death sentence for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan had been commuted to life impris-onment. (Frank, who’d maintained his innocence, was pardoned by the state of Georgia in 1986.)

In 1943, the Allied conquest of Sicily during World War II was completed as U.S. and British forces entered Messina.

In 1945, Indonesian nationalists declared their independence from the Netherlands.

In 1962, East German border guards shot and killed 18-year-old Peter Fechter, who had at-tempted to cross the Berlin Wall into the western sector.

In 1964, Teamsters union president Jimmy Hoffa was sentenced in Chicago to five years in federal prison for defrauding his union’s pension fund. (Hoffa was released in 1971 after President Richard Nixon commuted his sentence for this conviction and jury tampering.) Washington D.C.’s just-completed Capital Beltway was opened to traffic.

In 1982, the first commercially produced com-pact discs, a recording of ABBA’s “The Visitors,” were pressed at a Philips factory near Hanover, West Germany.

In 1985, more than 1,400 meatpackers walked off the job at the Geo. A. Hormel and Co.’s main plant in Austin, Minnesota, in a bitter strike that lasted just over a year.

In 1987, Rudolf Hess, the last member of Adolf Hitler’s inner circle, died at Spandau Prison at age 93, an apparent suicide.

In 1999, more than 17,000 people were killed when a magnitude 7.4 earthquake struck Turkey.

Ten years ago:

British police charged eight terrorism suspects. (The leader of the group, al-Qaida operative Dhi-ren Barot, later pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit mass murder and was sentenced to life in prison, although the term was subsequently reduced to 30 years; the other seven received sentences ranging up to 26 years.)

Alcorn County supervisors to meet Monday

Corinth Theatre-Arts is holding auditions for their upcoming produc-tion,” Becky’s New Car,” a comedy by Steven Dietz.

Auditions are set for 6 p.m. Monday and Tues-day at the playhouse at 303 Fulton Drive. No preparation or experience is required, simply fi ll out an audition form, meet with the director and read selections from the play.

“We are seeking four men in their mid-20s to mid-60s and three wom-en in their mid-20s to early 50s,” said Cindi Bul-lard, CT-A board of direc-tors president.

Rehearsals start Aug. 25.Actors must be avail-

able from 6 to 9 p.m. Monday-Friday up to and including the perfor-

mances of Oct. 9–11 at 7:30 p.m. and Oct. 12 at 2 p.m.

“If you aren’t interested in acting, but would like to volunteer in some other capacity, please come on down and talk to us,” Bul-lard said. “We always need and welcome volunteers.”

Casting

■ Becky Foster — (ap-pears 45-55) — charm-ing, funny, attractive and haunted by the feeling that her life isn’t what she had hoped it would

be. The role requires a leading lady who can play 45-55, has the stamina to carry a show (is on stage for 90 percent of the play, including multiple two-plus page monologues), and the confi dence to be able to constantly break the fourth wall and bring the audience into action.

■ Joe Foster – (age appropriate to Becky) – Becky’s husband. Strong, pragmatic, stolid, loves his wife and family and is signifi cantly smarter than he gives himself credit for.

■ Howard Flood – (55-

65) – very wealthy busi-nessman. Gentle, sweet, good-hearted and not ter-ribly connected to the real world. Has been lost since his wife’s death.

■ Chris Foster — (appears 26) — Joe and Becky’s son.

■ Kensington (Kenni) Flood – (early 20s) — Howard’s daughter. Gor-geous, rich, spoiled, cyni-cal and brilliant.

■ Steve — (40-55) — Becky’s co-worker. Still grieving the loss of his wife in a hiking accident. Man-ic and overly emotional.

■ Ginger — (40-55) — Walter’s neighbor. Scion of a family that has just about gone through all of its long held family wealth. Sad, funny and smart.

I’m probably in the minority, but I love the sound of the train whistles as they pass through Corinth.

I never really realized this until the city began dis-cussion of making the Cross City a Quiet Zone and even a recent hearing on the matter to discuss cost

and how to proceed.Like many other communities, a

Quiet Zone would ban trains from sounding their horns in Corinth.

There is a debate raging in my own home, as my daughter Amber fi nds the whistles annoying, especially when trying to teach a class with a lo-comotive raging just steps away.

We have no way to prove this, but we both think the horns have gotten louder since the fi rst Quiet Zone dis-

cussion happened at a city board meeting and the matter appeared in the newspaper.

On three occasions in recent months at two Corinth railroad crossings, I witnessed locomotives blaring their horns far past the street intersection.

Although my ears took about all they could stand, it doesn’t change why I have three reasons to cast my no vote on the Quiet Zone and spend the over $200,000 in costs on something else.

First reason, history.There was a time when the tourism offi ce was

recruiting volunteers to give historical tours of Corinth. I’m a “wannabee” Shiloh Civil War guide, so I once stepped into the shoes of former tourism director Del Horton to see what it was like.

Every time he was talking about the historic rail crossing in Corinth which was the cause for so much bloodshed at Shiloh, an approaching train would warn the group of visitors of its approach. It was al-ways right on cue.

Del would stop and smile and then say as the horn fi nally fell silent, “As you can see, trains are still a part of Corinth today.”

Indeed. Twenty-two pass through town on two tracks each and every day.

Second reason, Gregory.My 10-year-old grandson who lives with me loves

trains. Our dining area has been transformed into a model railroad city and at last count, he had fi ve locomotives.

His prized possession is one which makes sounds, including a whistle.

I have so many memories of being downtown with Gregory, playing at the caboose or letting him ride his bike in Trailhead Park.

And then, we hear the sound of a train.“Poppy, a train is coming!” he always shouted, as

all eyes are on the tracks.We have a game to guess the color of the engine

before we see it.If the Crossroads Museum builds a viewing plat-

form for the famous rail crossing, the sound of the train would add to the experience.

Third reason, my sweet Dawnie.For fi ve years, my wife traveled for a living. By 7

a.m. on most Monday mornings, I had already made a trip to Memphis International Airport where I had left her at the curb.

When Memphis air service arrived at Tupelo Re-gional Airport, things were a little better. By 7 a.m. I had been to Tupelo and back. And every Friday eve-ning, the same thing.

To see her smiling face getting off the Southwest fl ight at Tupelo was a welcome relief my wife would be with me for a short weekend. Because there were many weekends she did not make it home – job not complete or fl ight delays.

We live near downtown where we hear the trains and what Dawn discovered in her travels to Alaska and 24 of the lower 48 states, is the sounds of trains passing through Corinth is what makes Corinth unique.

As we settled in out in the garage for an evening of conversation for a couple who had not seen each other for a week or more, it would always happen.

The sound of an approaching and passing train could be heard.

And it was music to our ears.“I’m so glad to be home,” she always said.For us, the sound of a train meant we were home.Together.For some, the sound of a train whistle means loud

annoyance.For me, it means home.(Mark Boehler served as editor of the Daily Co-

rinthian from 1995-2008. He returned for a second tour of duty in 2011.)

A verse to share

STARKVILLE — The push being spearheaded by former Gov. Ron-nie Musgrove to gin up lawsuits against the state over the failure of the Mississippi Legislature to fully fund the Mississippi Adequate Education Program (MAEP) is one that is understandable if one simply read his Wikipedia entry on his po-litical views on education.

That information makes clear that Musgrove indeed played a lead-ing role — perhaps the leading role — in guiding the MAEP package to legislative passage while serving as lieutenant governor in 1997.

Musgrove is one of Mississippi’s leading experts on how the process of funding public education is sup-posed to work as opposed to how it actually works. His interest in this lawsuit is borne out by a lifetime of pro-public education and political activism.

MAEP was designed to address the thorny question of equity fund-ing in public education — meaning that children in poor counties like Quitman or Coahoma were receiv-ing the same quality of educational opportunity as the children in af-fl uent DeSoto or Rankin counties were getting.

While adequate in theory, MAEP has yet to be given a credible chance to work as intended because of law-makers have only “fully funded” MAEP on two occasions since it took full legal effect in 2002 — both times in election years in 2003 and

2007. The 2003 oc-currence came after Musgrove’s calculat-ed call to “fund edu-cation fi rst” in 2003 — which put the en-tire Legislature in a political bind.

So as a political combatant who in-vested a lot of time,

effort and political capital in pass-ing MAEP, Musgrove deserves credit for crafting the program.

But that’s where Musgrove’s “Wiki” fails to tell the whole story.

As governor, Musgrove’s budgets didn’t make funding MAEP as sac-rosanct as he now does as a success-ful trial lawyer promoting a lawsuit to recover what he says is millions in education funding that K-12 schools have not received in years when MAEP was not fully funded. Legal fees to Musgrove and his fel-low barristers could run as high as 25 percent of that foregone funding.

There has also been discussion of up to 10 percent contingency fees going to school board attorneys in districts that engage in the MAEP lawsuits. But that’s today, not the days of the Musgrove administra-tion when the path to “fully fund-ing” MAEP was rarely clear or po-litically doable.

In those days, Musgrove based his gubernatorial budgets on things like intercepting state tobacco fund payments, raiding special funds

and bonding. In the 2003 guberna-torial campaign, Musgrove and the Legislature resorted to accelerating sales tax collections, intercepting the state’s tobacco fund payment, spending non-recurring special fund revenue on recurring expens-es and attempting to issue bonds to pay for recurring expenses.

That a long way from arguing as arguing that the state’s K-12 educa-tion funding formula is one that is hard and fast and can’t be ignored. Musgrove said this week that law-makers “chose to use the word ‘shall’ in the formula and they knew what that meant.”

Musgrove believes the courts will share his analysis of exactly what the MAEP legislation means. Critics believe Musgrove’s litiga-tion will pit K-12 education against the state’s community college and higher education in the annual leg-islative budget battle. That’s consis-tently been the case over the last 40 years when one facet of the state’s education infrastructure sough a major funding increase.

Musgrove denies that’s his in-tent. “My life’s work has been fund-ing education from kindergarten through the university system. But higher education is sold short if the students they receive can’t do the work when they get there.”

Musgrove’s zeal over full fundingfor MAEP hasn’t waned

Even if the police in Ferguson, Missouri, are the brutal occupy-ing force alleged by the protestors there, what do local shop owners have to do with it?

In the wake of the police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in disputed circumstances last week, rioters burned down a convenience store and looted sporting goods and auto supply stores, among other businesses.

This completely unjustifi able law-lessness is waved off by the Left as, in the typical cliche, the boiling over of “rage.” We are supposed to be-lieve that the rioters were so deeply hurt by the Brown shooting that they felt compelled to go steal and destroy innocent people’s property, and judging by video of the looting, apparently have a grand time doing it.

The Brown family, to its credit, appealed for calm, but the unrest has continued in Ferguson, with nightly confrontations between police and protestors. The major-ity-black suburb of St. Louis is be-coming the nation’s latest hyper-racialized melodrama. President Barack Obama has weighed in twice already, and the usual com-mentators and activists are already making Ferguson a byword for of-fi cial racism.

We don’t know what happened in the prelude to the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. His friend says the teenager was shot by an offi cer in cold blood after a dispute with the cops over walking in the middle of the street. The police say there was

a struggle in the po-lice squad car and an attempt to take the offi cer’s gun.

There is a tried-and-true method of resolving such dis-putes -- a full and fair investigation, and a prosecution and trial if the facts warrant. This is a process that takes time and

care, but the Left and the media are working themselves up for a good old-fashioned rush to judgment.

The Ferguson police have done themselves no favors in what is now, inevitably, a no-holds-barred public-relations war. In response to protests, highly militarized teams have been deployed with equip-ment better suited to fi ghting ISIS than controlling potentially unruly crowds. There is a long-running trend, ably documented and cri-tiqued by Radley Balko of The Washington Post, of local police forces acquiring surplus military equipment wholly inappropriate for domestic police work.

The Ferguson police also have been ham-fi sted and high-handed in dealing with the press, appearing in one video to deliberately tear-gas an Al Jazeera camera crew, and in another instance, arresting and briefl y detaining two reporters for the offense of not leaving a McDon-ald’s quickly enough.

All that said, there would be no routine confrontations between cops and protestors if the protestors

weren’t inviting them. Ferguson of-fi cials have, reasonably enough, urged people to protest during the day, and daylight demonstrations have been peaceful. It is at night, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch notes, that protests take on their edge of “defi ance and lawlessness.”

No one has a First Amendment right to block streets and throw things at cops, or the right to complain if the cops move to stop such acts.

Once protestors are throwing projectiles, cops aren’t going to look or act like the friendly neighbor-hood offi cers out of Norman Rock-well paintings. Even if they aren’t tricked out in military gear, riot po-lice never appear cute and cuddly. Would the critics of law enforce-ment in Ferguson really be happier if the cops were controlling crowds with horses and batons?

We’re told that the military-style of the cops is “provoking” the pro-testors. But these sorts of fl are-ups over controversial shootings by po-lice have been a part of American life for a very long time. They happened long before any police department thought to buy military equipment, and would happen even if police were deployed on Segways and car-ried cap-guns for protection.

The formula for calm in Fergu-son is very simple: Let justice take its course. Too many people are al-ready vested in not letting that hap-pen.

Physicians: Put state smoking ban to vote 

JACKSON — Having failed to persuade law-makers to ban smoking in public places, the Mis-sissippi State Medical Association now wants lawmakers to put the question to voters.

The association, which represents Mississippi’s 4,700 physicians, says it will gather petition signa-tures in doctors’ offices asking the 2015 Legisla-ture to set a referendum.

It’s not a petition cam-paign to force an elec-tion on a state constitu-tional amendment, which would require more than 100,000 signatures of registered voters, but an effort to persuade law-makers to call a vote on their own.

Indoor smoking bans have failed multiple times in the Mississippi legislature, although a number of cities have passed them.

Case over juvenile facility likely to end 

JACKSON — Fed-eral officials say they’re ready to end oversight of a Mississippi juvenile training school.

The U.S Justice De-partment and the state jointly filed a motion Friday in federal court in Jackson to dismiss the 2003 case, under which

federal authorities sued to force better conditions at Columbia Training School in Columbia and Oakley Training School in Raymond.

The state signed a consent decree in the case, agreeing to make improvements, in 2005. The state closed Colum-bia Training School in 2008, leaving Oakley as the only facility covered by the lawsuit.

Columbus mayor to give up pay raise 

COLUMBUS — Colum-bus Mayor Robert Smith will ask the City Council Monday to rescind his $10,000 pay raise.

Smith told WCBI-TV Friday that he’s giving up the raise because it’s distracting from his other efforts.

The mayor broke a 3-3 tie at an Aug. 6 meeting to give himself the raise, prompting criticism.

The move came at a meeting where the coun-cil cut budget requests and discussed raising taxes or dipping into reserves to balance the budget.

He earlier defended the money as a reward for his hard work. Smith earns $78,797 a year.

Smith says he’ll ask the council to shift most of the $10,000 to give raises to two fire depart-ment employees that previously were rejected.

Ambrose a dean at Mississippi College 

CLINTON — Jonathan Ambrose has been ap-pointed associate dean of students at Missis-sippi College.

Ambrose completed a doctorate in urban higher education at Jackson State University. He also holds degrees from St. Peter’s College in New Jersey and the University of Louisiana-Monroe.

Ambrose will oversee a variety of student activi-ties on Mississippi Col-lege’s campus in Clinton.

Southaven receives grant for shelter 

SOUTHAVEN, Miss. — Southaven has been awarded a grant of more than $2.5 million to build a storm shelter/safe room near the Southaven Arena on U.S. Highway 51.

Mayor Darren Mussel-white tells The Commer-cial Appeal the city re-ceived confirmation from the office of U.S. Rep. Alan Nunnelee, R-Miss.

The grant of $2,583,566 is being funded through the Fed-eral Emergency Manage-ment Agency and the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency.

In 2013 the city ac-cepted $274,564 for the first phase of the project, which included engineering and design work.

Immigration could split Obama, party  

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama already is head-ing toward a fall fight with Republicans over his ability to change im-migration policies.

And he’s also fac-ing potential rifts with members of his own party who are in tough re-election contests.

If Obama takes the broadest action — re-moving the threat of deportation for millions of people who are in this country — then the short-term risks appear greatest for Senate Democrats in conserva-tive-leaning states.

Just weeks before Election Day in Novem-ber, those Democrats could find themselves on the hot seat over their views on immigra-tion and Obama’s use of his presidential powers.

Perry: Indictment is abuse of power 

AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Gov. Rick Perry vowed Saturday to fight the indictment against him, calling it an “outra-geous” abuse of power.

“This indictment amounts to nothing more than abuse of power and I cannot and will not allow that to happen,” Perry said at a news conference a day after he was charged with violating state law.

On Friday, a Travis County grand jury in-dicted the Republican on two felony counts of abuse of power for making good on a veto threat.

The possible 2016 presidential hopeful again dismissed the charges as nakedly po-litical. Perry is the first Texas governor since 1917 to be indicted.

The indictments are related to Perry veto-ing funding for a Travis County unit investigat-ing public corruption last year because the Democratic official heading the office re-fused to resign after being convicted of drunken driving.

Teen gunman was ‘not a high threat’

LITTLETON, Colo. — A teen who fatally shot another student at his suburban Denver high

school last year had been deemed “not a high-level of threat” after shouting a death threat against his debate coach three months earlier, ac-cording to documents obtained by The Associ-ated Press.

The disciplinary re-cords show that Karl Pierson, 18, was al-lowed to return to class in September, less than a week after he was demoted from captain of the debate team and said he would kill the coach, who was a school librarian. The documents say Pierson showed no remorse for making the threat.

Authorities have said Pierson was targeting the debate coach when he entered Arapahoe High School on Dec. 13 with a shotgun, a ma-chete and homemade bombs. Pierson killed a 17-year-old girl before taking his own life in the school library as se-curity officers closed in. The coach, whose name has not been publicly released, escaped un-harmed.

Police, protesters clash in Ferguson 

FERGUSON, Mo. — Anger spurred by the death of a black teen-ager at the hands of a white police officer in a St. Louis suburb boiled over again when protesters stormed into a Missouri convenience store — the same one the teen was accused of robbing.

Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon’s office tweeted “Long night. Thanks to all who tried to stop unnecessary violence” and said the governor would be in Ferguson, Missouri, on Saturday to meet with local leaders.

Police and about 200 protesters clashed late Friday after another tense day that began with authorities identify-ing the officer who fatal-ly shot Michael Brown as 28-year-old Darren Wilson. At the same time, Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson released documents alleging Brown, 18, had stolen a $48.99 box of cigars from the convenience store and strong-armed a man on his way out.

Just before midnight, some in what had been a large, rowdy but

mostly peaceful crowd broke into that same small store, Ferguson Market & Liquor, and began looting it, Mis-souri State Highway Pa-trol Capt. Ron Johnson said. Some protesters yelled at the aggres-sors to stop what they were doing, and about a dozen eventually helped protect the store.

Teams of police of-ficers holding rifles and dressed in riot gear used their cars to block a one-mile stretch of West Florissant Avenue, the street at the center of the protests. Oc-casional firecrackers sounded in the dis-tance.

Some in the crowd began throwing rocks and other objects at po-lice, Johnson said.

Sheriff: Pair planned to abduct more kids  

CANTON, N.Y. — A couple accused of kidnapping two young Amish sisters were prowling for easy tar-gets and may have also planned to abduct other children, a sheriff said Saturday.

Stephen Howells Jr. and Nicole Vaisey, both of Hermon, were arrested Friday on charges they snatched the 7-year-old and 12-year-old girls from a roadside farm stand in front of their home near the Canadian border.

St. Lawrence County Sheriff Kevin Wells said at a news conference Saturday that more charges may be filed and that investigators are looking into whether the pair had plotted or carried out other abduc-tions.

“We felt that there was the definite poten-tial that there was going to be other victims,” Wells said.

The sisters were abducted Wednesday from their family’s farm stand in Oswegatchie and were set free by their captors Thursday.

FERGUSON, Mo. — In the days since Missouri Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson took charge of a volatile situation that threatened to turn ugly, tragic or both, his calm-yet-commanding pres-ence has captured inter-national attention. But when it comes to keeping the peace in the St. Louis suburb where a white po-lice offi cer shot and killed an unarmed black teen, Johnson knows his neigh-bors’ opinions are what matter most.

“The people of our com-munity need to hear what I’m saying,” Johnson, who is black, said at the start of one daily press briefi ng, urging local resi-dents standing behind an enormous media con-tingent to come closer to the podium. “They’ve got questions, and I invited them here.”

The 27-year patrol vet-eran, who oversees nearly 150 troopers patrolling 11 counties in eastern Missouri, grew up down the road from the neigh-borhood where 18-year-old Michael Brown was killed Aug. 9. He still lives

nearby, in the neighbor-ing town of Florissant. He was placed in charge of Ferguson security by Col. Ron Repogle, the High-way Patrol superinten-dent, after Gov. Jay Nixon revoked county police oversight Thursday.

Johnson’s impact was immediate. After fi ve nights of volatile and vio-lent protests marked by looting, arson and the use of tear gas on demonstra-tors by county and local police, Johnson ordered his offi cers to abandon the body armor and gas masks and instead en-sure the public’s right to peaceably assemble.

Things escalated again Friday night, after Fer-guson police released the name of the offi cer who shot Brown along with video they said showed the teen robbing a store shortly before he was killed.

But as looters broke into several businesses, some throwing rocks and other objects at offi cers, police backed off, a move Johnson said was de-signed to ease tension. No arrests were made and no one was badly hurt.

From the start, John-son walked alongside pro-

testers, past the barbecue joint and neighborhood taverns he knew by name, stopping for hugs, hand-shakes and encourage-ment. He spoke sincerely and empathetically with young black men who described routine racial profi ling based on their clothing, hairstyles and demeanor. Their com-plaints were familiar: His own son, in his 20s, is of-ten judged because of his tattoos, Johnson said.

Most of all, he listened.“He made himself ac-

cessible, from a place of peace and understand-ing,” said Robin Moore-Chambers, a diversity trainer and counseling professor at Lindenwood University who lives in nearby Dellwood. “He’s listening to everybody. He will take you serious-ly. He’s appealing to their humanity. He knows they need to be heard.”

Protesters and politi-cians credit him with al-most entirely defusing the nightly violence, and giving the community a sense that it can recover from the trauma that has swept Ferguson.

“The best resource that I could bring to this situ-ation in Ferguson, Mis-

souri, is Capt. Ron John-son, and I think you’ve seen the tremendous job he’s already done,” said Repogle, his commander.

Complaints about the police response began al-most immediately after Brown’s shooting, when authorities decided to use dogs for crowd control — a tactic that for some evoked civil-rights pro-tests from a half-century ago. The county police had taken over at the request of the smaller city, lead-ing both the investigation of Brown’s shooting and the subsequent attempts to keep the peace until the state stepped in.

Johnson joined the Highway Patrol in 1987, earning a promotion to corporal in 1995 and to sergeant two years later. He spent three years on the other side of the state after a promotion to lieu-tenant in 1999 before re-turning to the St. Louis region as commanding offi cer in 2002.

Law enforcement runs in the family. St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that Johnson’s father-in-law was a depu-ty police chief for the city department.

Ferguson native tries to keep peaceBY ALAN SCHER

ZAGIERAssociated Press

Associated PressABERDEEN — A Wis-

consin man pleaded guilty to taking illegally harvested wildlife pelts out of Mississippi. Peter Jesunas, 32, of Shiocton, Wisconsin, pleaded guilty Monday before U.S. Mag-istrate David Sanders in Aberdeen. He was fi ned $10,000 and ordered not to hunt or trap anywhere worldwide for three years while on probation. He was also ordered to forfeit the 354 pelts to the state of Wisconsin.

Jesunas came to Mis-sissippi to trap in spring 2012, though barred from buying a license because of previous wildlife-re-lated offenses, a press release states. Jesunas illegally trapped 14 gray foxes, 88 raccoons, 16 bobcats, 20 muskrats, 25 otters, 10 coyotes and 181 beavers, his criminal charges state.

He took the pelts back to Wisconsin to sell them, enlisting his brother, Patrick Jesunas, to buy a Mississippi trapper’s li-cense. That was done so Peter Jesunas could ob-tain tags regulating trade in endangered species..

Patrick Jesunas plead-ed guilty earlier and was fi ned $1,500.

Illegal trappingchargesbring plea GRAY, Ga. — Elaine

Greene visits the E.R. several times a day.

It is the fi rst door on the left as you walk down her hallway. In the house on a hill overlooking Gray Highway, Elvis is always in the building.

The E.R. is the Elvis Room, where a king can live forever. The decor is All Things Presley. Elvis leaps across the fl oor, up the walls and over the top.

Elaine Greene is no or-dinary Elvis fan. She is an Elvis fan with capital letters and exclamation points. Passionate is a keyword in her thesau-rus. Even the diehards don’t all have a room fi t for a king.

Whatever you do, don’t step on her Greene-suede shoes.

There are moments forever frozen in our memories. For Elaine, one of them is Aug. 16, 1977. The baby sitter called. Had she heard the news?

Elvis is dead.She cried.In the Elvis Room, she

has been keeping him on life support.

Elaine has hundreds of Elvis books, post cards, soda bottles, 29-cent stamps, posters, pillows, coffee mugs, a blanket and a Monopoly board game.

On one side of the

room is a bust of Elvis. It was left on her doorstep one night by a friend, Jane Russell. Across the room is an Elvis slot machine. Drop in a coin and, if three Elvis heads pop up, it starts playing an Elvis song.

Among her favorite items is a red cap cov-ered with 53 Elvis pins.

“It weighs a ton on my head,” she said. “I can only wear it for 15 min-utes.”

She has a school desk from Humes High School in Memphis, where Pre-sley graduated in 1953. She and her friend, Beth Davidson, an Elvis fan on equal footing, talked the janitor into letting them have three. (To show their appreciation, they made a donation to the library.)

There is no proof Elvis actually sat in any of the desks. His initials aren’t carved in the wood grain. But at least the desk was in the company of a king. And that is enough.

Elaine taught school for 32 years. At Tattnall Square Academy, she was a seventh-grade English teacher. She in-cluded “Elvis” on the syl-labus as a teaching tool. She once gave her stu-dents Reese’s Cups (with Elvis on the wrapper) on the fi rst day of school.

In her classroom at Tattnall, she kept an Elvis cut-out, album covers, a jigsaw puzzle and Christ-

mas ornaments. When she retired in 2009, her husband, Wayne, helped move her Elvis collection to a spare bedroom. He has become a permanent house guest.

Elvis has run a thread through her life. Her crush began when she was 9 years old. She sat in front of a black-and-white TV and watched Presley on “The Ed Sul-livan Show.” Known as “Elvis the Pelvis” for his hip gyrations, the TV cameras showed him only from the waist up.

In high school, she accepted Elvis records instead of baby-sitting money. She saw Elvis three times in concert -- twice in Macon and once in Atlanta. She kept the ticket stubs. (One cost $7.50.)

“Can’t Help Falling in Love” was sung at her wedding at Hillsboro Baptist Church in 1970. She has requested that two songs from an Elvis gospel tape -- “Take My Hand Precious Lord” and “Just a Closer Walk With Thee” -- be played at her funeral.

Elaine regrets not be-ing in Memphis for “El-vis Week,” which runs through today. She and Beth Davidson have been attending since 1997, missing only four times in 17 years.

“It’s like going to a big family reunion,” Elaine said.

Okay, I’ve had my wa-termelon for the year.

I didn’t share it. John doesn’t much like wa-

termelon, something I might have had a hard time u n d e r -s t a n d i n g if I hadn’t grown up with my b r o t h e r Adam. He

never liked it either.So once a year I buy

one all for myself. Which seems sort of silly. It takes up most of a refrigera-tor shelf, and it takes me days--weeks--to work my way from one end to the other. Usually I don’t. And end up pitching the last chunk.

Still, it doesn’t feel like I’ve had a real summer if I haven’t bought one of the iconic clunkers. I mean, what’s a summer for?

And what’s a summer’s picnic without a water-melon?

Not, come to think of it, that I’m a fan of summer picnics. I love the great outdoors, but I want to be doing something when I’m outside. Hik-ing with the dogs. Rear-ranging the brick walk....Give me a job that keeps me moving and I’m just fi ne. I’d rather hoe crab-grass than sit in the sun, sagging in a plastic chair beside a redhot grill, riv-ulets of sweat collecting in my eyebrows and in the hollows of my knees. I can handle heat as long as there’s a breeze. There is never a breeze.

Besides, it all seems so unnecessary. Hauling all that food outside--and the silverware and cups and coolers and sacks for garbage and--nowadays--recycling. Smoke from the cookout keeps shifting into your face no matter

where you set your chair. Paper plates go soggy before you’re halfway through.

Not to mention the bugs.

Now, in their proper places, most six-leggers are just fi ne, their busy bodies doing their eensy beensy jobs in the ecosys-tem. Bravo for Mr. Beetle and Ms. Bee. Pollinate those pansies! Eat up those rotting logs!

But I don’t care for in-sects in my food or on my person. And picnick-ers spend too much time swatting at mosquitoes and fanning away the fl ies.

Sometimes there’s no getting out of these social obligations. Like those backyard picnics of our grandmother’s when we were growing up. Which always ended with--of course--a watermelon, much to my little broth-er’s disgust.

I, however, liked its taste, especially the fi rst few bites when it’s cold and delicately crisp. I enjoyed the drama, too. Heave ho’ing a massive melon to the picnic table and brandishing the carv-ing knife. The SHLUCK! of that fi rst cut, the round end falling away to re-veal the innerds gleam-ing red and wet like an enormous bull’s-eye, en-circled by the white rind and the faint line of green and speckled by the black seeds. Gorgeous.

They blend together in my mind, our grand-mother’s picnics, except for one. Can’t recall the occasion. Probably a very dull meeting of the Children of the Ameri-can Colonists. (She was a staunch supporter.) Pos-sibly Adam’s birthday, August 26.

Whatever. A sprawl of us kids was crowded around the redwood ta-

ble, dutifully fi nishing up our sliced dessert, luke-warm already, the bits of pinkish fl esh and woody seeds swimming in the juice between the gnawed rinds. (Some things are good to the last bite; some things really aren’t.)

Suddenly Adam point-ed at a mosquito rest-ing momentarily in the middle of the table. We gawked. Its abdomen was rotund, so swollen--I kid you not--that it could not fl y. It kept trying to take off, heading down the ta-ble like a runway. It’d lift into the air, then touch down. Try again, touch down. Its bulging belly was too much ballast.

Never seen anything like it before or since.

We watched, fasci-nated, forks suspended. Then it lifted once again, slowly rising, higher, it was off....

And SPLAT! Adam--always the fastest--had

emerged from our collec-tive confoundment.

We cheered. “Go, Adam!” I guess the rest of us would’ve let it fl y on off into the yonder, oblivious of the fact that the phe-nomenon was a blood-sucking pest.

No telling how often that mosquito has been mentioned at our get to-gethers for, lo, these 50 years. I can still see it sil-houetted against the pale blue sky, its legs as thin as penciled lines, the frail wings working hard to heave aloft that bloated belly.

For some moments there it must have been so happy. Best lunch of its life.

MISSISSIPPI STATE — Conservation land management practices have made the Pleasant Lake Plantation in Lefl ore County a model of sus-tainability and function-ality.

Pleasant Lake has about 1,700 acres near Green-wood. The plantation in-cludes about 500 acres in row crop production, 600 acres in timber, 110 acres in Conservation Reserve Program grassland, along with a 50-acre lake and lowlands that are prone to fl ooding.

Guy Ray, president of the company, has taken many steps to make the property beautiful, use-ful and sustainable. The property is a prime ex-ample of the type of syn-ergy between agriculture and natural resources advocated by REACH, the Research and Education to Advance Conservation and Habitat program. REACH is housed at Mis-sissippi State University and is an effort to scien-tifi cally support and raise awareness of innovative conservation practices throughout the state.

The row-crop farmland was one of the fi rst con-cerns Ray addressed.

“We are 100 percent furrow-irrigated, and several years ago, we in-stalled drop pipes to con-trol erosion caused by water runoff,” Ray said. “Two years ago, we fi n-ished the last land-form-ing on the farm, and we are a minimum-tillage operation.”

Extra tillage practices are used every other year to control weeds, but the farm mostly uses chemi-

cal weed control.The entire farm is en-

rolled in a conservation program offered through the Farm Service Agency that requires Ray to keep records on a variety of management practices, such as woodland burns for fi re control, and oil and polypipe recycling.

“We document all the activities. I think we were the fi rst in Lefl ore County to sign up for the pro-gram,” Ray said.

Three years ago, MSU forestry students under

the direction of their pro-fessor developed an over-all forestry plan for the timberland.

“We implemented a conservation timber har-vest on our 600 acres of forestland,” Ray said. “Before we did this, we had zero sunlight hitting the forest fl oor, and it was starved of browse for our deer herd.”

Ray hired a profession-al forester to devise a plan for thinning the trees, clear-cutting some areas and creating food plots for deer and wildlife. A deer hunting lease brings additional income to the farm.

The plantation is also home to some good duck hunting land. There are 623 surface acres of wa-ter on the farm at peak times, and this land is being managed for water-fowl habitat. Perpetually swampy areas have alli-gators that can be hunted as well.

This spring, Ray en-rolled some of his land in the Conservation Reserve Program and planted grassland and hedgerows to enhance bird habitat and wildlife in the warm-season grassy areas.

One of the biggest chal-lenges on the plantation has been maintaining the natural wetlands on the property. A drainage sys-tem installed years ago on a nearby property in-advertently reduced the amount of water fl owing to wetlands in the area, including three small lakes. Ray’s lake was one of these that saw greatly lowered water levels.

“I began working with my neighbors and got all the adjoining landown-ers together at a meeting where we could determine our interest in addressing this problem,” Ray said. “We are hoping to have a weir control structure installed to benefi t all of us while not adversely af-fecting the farmer.”

Ray became aware of the REACH program at this meeting and was in-terested in showing how his plantation benefi ts from conservation.

Beth (Poganski) Baker, REACH coordinator, said the program concentrates its efforts on developing and conducting research on land management and conservation practices to increase the effi ciency of landowner operations

and to support landowner and government invest-ments.

“The REACH program exists to meet the pro-ducers’ research needs and coordinate efforts between partnering agen-cies to make sure research efforts are complemen-tary and cost-effective rather than competitive and wasteful,” Baker said. “We’re interested in sustainability and long-term success for both the economy and the natural resources of the state.”

REACH is a collabo-ration with MSU, Delta Farm, the Nature Conser-vancy and other agencies.

Ray’s work at Pleasant Lake Plantation is a mod-el of REACH practices.

“Producers like Mr. Ray are an asset to conserva-tion efforts throughout the state. It’s important to have producers who are excited about protecting natural resources and are willing to share their suc-cesses with other produc-ers,” she said. “He’s tak-ing active management steps to preserve and im-prove his land for wildlife and recreation while still operating in an effi cient manner.”

NEW YORK — The back-to-school shopping season is off to a prom-ising start, but retailers may be sacrifi cing profi t for sales.

The National Re-tail Federation expects the average family with school-aged children to spend $669.28 for back to school items, up 5 per-cent from last year. That would be the second-highest amount since the industry trade group started tracking spending in 2004.

But major retailers like Wal-Mart and Macy’s are discounting mer-chandise and increasing spending to upgrade their stores and websites just to grab the attention of U.S. shoppers during the second biggest shopping period of the year. All that discounting and invest-ing has worked to start the season off strong, they say, but it also hurts their bottom lines.

“Stores are going to have to invest in price and e-commerce aggressively in order to be competi-tive,” said Ken Perkins, president of RetailMet-rics LLC, a retail research fi rm. “The pie is not grow-

ing, and they’ve got to do everything they can to keep them from losing market share.”

Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer, says it’s been investing in several ways to attract shoppers this season. The compa-ny cut prices on 10 per-cent more back-to-school items compared with last year. It also increased the number of back-to-school products sold on its website by 30 percent to 75,000 this year from last year.

The company also has made some long-term in-vestments. Wal-Mart said earlier this year it plans to open 270 to 300 small stores during the current fi scal year — double its ini-tial forecast— to compete with dollar chains. And it has increased its spend-ing on its e-commerce op-erations to compete with online competitors like Amazon, a move that con-tributed to it slashing its annual profi t outlook.

“In an environment where customers have so many choices about where to shop and how to buy, and many of them are feeling pressure on their budgets, we have to be at our best,” said Wal-Mart’s CEO Doug McMil-

lon in a pre-recorded call Thursday.

But all that investing has hurt its results. On Thursday, Wal-Mart re-ported that its profi t in the latest quarter was vir-tually fl at during the lat-est quarter.

Kohl’s Corp. also re-ported fl at profi t in its latest fi scal quarter on Thursday, as it cut prices, revamped its beauty de-partments, and spent on services such as one that enables it to ship online orders directly to shop-pers from its stores.

The department-store operator also has started to roll out a loyalty pro-gram where shoppers get one point for every dol-lar they spend, with them receiving a $5 reward for every 100 points.

The retailer is hopeful its moves will boost busi-ness during the back-to-school shopping season: Kohl’s said that in July it had its fi rst gain in rev-enue at established stores in several months.

“I believe our custom-ers will be excited by the newness that they fi nd in our stores and when shopping online this fall,” Kohl’s CEO Kevin Man-sell told investors Thurs-day.

Still, Mansell says the period is not a predic-tor of how shoppers will spend during the winter holiday shopping season in November and Decem-ber, which traditionally is the biggest shopping period of the year. “Last year, we had a really good back-to-school business and then business died mid-September,” he said.

For its part, Macy’s Inc., which owns Macy’s and upscale Blooming-dales chains, reported on Wednesday that its profi t and sales for its lat-est quarter missed Wall Street estimates because it did so much discount-ing of merchandise.

The retailer also has been investing in its online business. The company said it just fi nished rolling out a program that allows shoppers to order on ma-cys.com and then pick-up their order in stores. Addi-tionally, the company said that it has sharpened its focus on customers ages 13 to 30, which has re-en-ergized the back-to-school business.

“Macy’s and Blooming-dale’s are doing what it takes to win with the cus-tomer,” Karen Hoguet, Macy’s chief fi nancial of-fi cer, told investors.

Stores have solid back-to-school seasonBY ANNE D’INNOCENZIO

  NEW YORK — Ama-zon is taking direct aim at mobile payment sys-tems such as Square by introducing the Amazon Local Register, a credit-card processing device and mobile app designed to help small business owners accept payments through their smart-phones and tablets.

The move places the largest U.S. e-commerce retailer in competition with Square and other established mobile pay-ment processing systems such as PayPal Here and Intuit’s GoPayment.

Amazon’s technology includes a card reader that attaches to a smartphone, Kindle or tablet. The reader processes credit or debit card payments via a secure Amazon net-work, the same one that processes Amazon.com purchases. The service is designed to serve on-the-

go small business owners who might otherwise only accept cash or checks, including massage thera-pists, food truck opera-tors and artists who sell their work at outdoor fairs.

Small businesses can start using Local Regis-ter by creating an account on http://localregister.amazon.com . Business-es must buy Amazon’s card reader for $10, and download the free mo-bile app from the Ama-zon app store, the Apple app store or Google Play. The app works on most smartphones and tablets, including the Kindle Fire.

Similar to Amazon’s strategy in many of its businesses, the company aims to compete on price in the mobile payment arena. For customers who sign up for the service by Oct. 31, Amazon will take as its fee 1.75 percent of each payment processed, or each “swipe” of the

card, a special rate that will last until Jan. 1, 2016. For people who sign up after Oct. 31, Amazon will take a service fee of 2.5 percent of each payment processed.

The fi rst $10 in transac-tion fees will be credited back to the customer, es-sentially paying for the card reader.

That’s below most of its competitors’ rates. Square takes a fee of 2.75 percent of each transaction. Pay-Pal Here takes 2.7 percent of each transaction and Intuit’s GoPayment rates start at 1.75 percent per transaction if businesses pay a $19.95 monthly rate or 2.4 percent of each transaction without a monthly payment.

“I’ve actually heard some business owners say the only thing that would make them change (point of sale) systems is cost savings,” said Matt Swann, vice president of local commerce for Ama-zon.

“Payments are hard and that’s one of the things that gets in the way of serving custom-ers, especially for small businesses,” Swann said. “Payment tools need to be inexpensive, simple and trusted to get the job done.”

Amazon is entering the mobile payment space as the industry continues its rapid growth. IDC es-timates that mobile pay-ments could top a trillion dollars globally within the next fi ve years. That includes all forms of mo-bile payments, such as items purchased online via a phone or tablet, fund transfers and items bought using a mobile gadget as a payment-ac-cepting device.

It’s diffi cult to isolate

the exact portion of that market represented by point-of-sale mobile com-merce, since the biggest player, Square, is private and doesn’t divulge sales. Also, PayPal doesn’t break out specifi c revenue from its Here product.

Baird Equity analyst Colin Sebastian said Am-azon’s move was partly expected since the com-pany bought mobile pay-ment company GoPago in 2013.

“The announcement suggests the lines be-tween commerce and payment platforms con-tinue to blur, and we still anticipate other large technology players (like Google and Apple) to ex-pand their own existing payment initiatives, in-cluding in-store point-of-sale services.”

Local Register is part of a slew of new products and services that Seattle-based Amazon has intro-duced this year. The com-pany’s Fire smartphone debuted this month. In April, it began selling the Fire TV, a media stream-ing device. Meanwhile, Amazon is expanding its same-day delivery ser-vice and offering grocery delivery and video and music streaming for its Prime loyalty club mem-bers.

Investors have largely given Amazon a pass on profi t as it focuses on spending the money it makes to grow and ex-pand into new areas. But there are some signs patience may be wan-ing. The company’s most recent quarterly report in July showed a deeper-than-expected second quarter loss despite surg-ing revenue. Since then, the company’s stock has fallen about 11 percent.

The Daily Corinthian family of quality magazines continues with the presentation of Crossroads

Magazine Homes on Aug. 30.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian

ARIES (March 21-April 19). What is so amazing about social acceptance that it makes people sell out who they really are in or-der to obtain it? This is the ques-tion on your mind now as you bask in approval and try not to let it change you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your good looks will take you places. Of course, the exterior can only get you in the door, and then the inside you will have to do the rest. Anyway, you’ll be brilliant when you turn on the charm.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). While most pursue the invisible mysteries, you’ll opt for the vis-ible ones. Just because a situa-tion is seen doesn’t make it any less mysterious than what is unseen.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Maybe your father was right. And you can tell that to your son, who thinks you’re wrong, all day long, and he’ll never believe it. If you don’t have a son, you’ll still live the irony of this today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Warn-ing: Advertising sometimes makes the worst appear better. Don’t go for the slick copy and big promises. Stick to the tried and true. Chances are it will fi t your budget better.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are days when you’ll be glad that you gave people the benefi t of the doubt, but this isn’t one of them. Right now, those with a future should avoid those with a past.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have good fi nancial mojo with fellow air signs, Gemini and Aquarius. These signs are so on your wavelength now that you’ll arrive at the same con-clusions at approximately the same time.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have the heart of a child today. You’ll smile. You’ll laugh. You’ll believe in impossible things, and your pure belief may be enough to make them true.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Would you rather learn from experience or have an ex-perience that comes from learn-ing? One of the two will be part of your day. Luck follows you because you’re tuned in and receptive.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s much easier to steer a bike that’s moving. The same goes for a car or a life. So don’t worry too much about which way you should go. The impor-tant thing is to go -- and then it will be easier to take control of the wheel.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If you undertake too much at the start, is that going to be a problem? Yes! Better to un-derplay it and promise nothing or very little. There will be great pleasure in over-delivering.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be in the mood to dance the new dances, taste the exot-ic fruits and throw any sense of self-consciousness to the wind. When you live dangerously, you feel completely alive.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a nurse who has been providing fl u vaccina-tions for customers in a big box store. Most of them regard us health care workers as people who want to keep them healthy. My problem is parents who use

me as a threat of pun-ishment for their kids.

I have had parents drag their scream-ing, crying kids over to me, telling them that if they don’t behave they are going to “make me”

give them a shot. One woman pulled her daughter by the arm, sat her in the chair and said, “OK, give her a shot!” The little girl’s eyes fi lled with tears and she panicked.

I looked the woman in the eye and told her I didn’t appreciate her making her daughter afraid of me. I told the little one that some-times we have to take medicine that might hurt us or taste bad, but ONLY because we hoped it would make her better. Then I assured her I wasn’t giving her a shot. The woman laughed ner-vously, said she was “just joking” and rushed her child away.

I worked hard to become a

nurse and my goal is keep-ing people healthy. Parents: PLEASE don’t use health care workers as punishment. You’re not helping us to do our job when you can’t do yours. — NOT THE BAD GUY IN CLINTON, TENN.

DEAR NOT THE BAD GUY: It’s unfortunate, but some par-ents do this not only with health care workers, but also with police offi cers, and it’s an unbelievably stupid practice. To make a child fearful of the professionals they may at some point need is coun-terproductive and poor parenting. If a child is acting up and being disruptive in a public place, a bet-ter solution is to remove him or her from the premises until you have regained control of the situ-ation.

DEAR ABBY: My 18-year-old

daughter was killed in an auto accident a couple of months after she graduated from high school with honors. She had planned to go to college and become a nurse.

Right after graduation she went on a senior trip to Mexico. Two days later she called me want-ing to come home. She said everyone was drinking, doing drugs, having sex with strang-ers and she didn’t like it. I bought her a plane ticket and she came home the next day. She died two months later.

Eight months went by and I

was having a particularly hard time one night. I prayed for a sign from God that she was in heaven and doing well.

The next day, the day before Good Friday, I went to my mail-box. Inside was a postcard from my daughter. She had mailed it from Mexico the day before she returned. It was in mint condition and had been lost in the mail for 10 months.

The card read: “It is beautiful here. I’m OK. I miss you and love you, Mommy. Love, Brandi.” I was so happy and relieved! I was able to move on with my life after that. I signed up for college a few weeks later and earned my de-gree four years later.

Thank you, Abby, for letting me share my “miracle” with you. — SHARON IN LOUISIANA

DEAR SHARON: My good-ness, you don’t have to thank me. Your letter moved me to the point of tears. Although I have printed many letters about pen-nies from heaven, this is the fi rst time I have heard about a post-card. I’m glad it gave you the comfort and validation that you needed.

BOONEVILLE — Brittney Rencher plans to extend her good fortune on the tennis courts to the collegiate level as she starts her career at Northeast Mississippi Com-munity College.

Rencher recently signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) to become the fi rst member of the Lady Tigers’ exceptional 2014-15 recruit-ing class.

“We’re looking forward to the additional assistance that Brittney will provide to us,” said Northeast head coach Ben Shappley. “Brittney spe-cializes in doubles and we’re excited about the help she will give us. We have high hopes for her.”

R e n c h e r was a found-ing member of Kossuth High School’s tennis program as a sophomore in 2012 and has started under the direction of coach Ginger Mattox for each year since then.

She and her partner Mar-lee Sue Bradley compiled a phenomenal 11-1 record dur-ing the 2014 regular season at No. 2 doubles. The duo led the Aggies to the Mississippi High School Activities Asso-ciation (MHSAA) Division 1, Class 3A championship.

Bradley and Rencher did not lose to a league oppo-nent last campaign. The pair

also claimed marquee victo-ries against Baldwyn High School’s Alise McCreary and Dawn Jackson (6-1, 6-0) and versus Callie Tennyson and Brittany Ortiz of Tishomingo County High School (6-2, 6-2).

The combo was the runner-up in the girls double event at the MHSAA Division 1-3A Tournament to Kossuth teammates Rachel Winters and Taylor Heavener. Bradley and Rencher defeated Bel-mont High School’s Kristina Taylor and Olivia Wiggin-ton 6-3, 6-4 to reach the title matchup.

Kossuth defeated North Pontotoc High School 5-2 in the opening round of the MHSAA Class 3A playoffs and hosted Cleveland East

Side High School at Corinth’s Crossroads Regional Park in the quarterfi nal round.

Bradley and Rencher downed the Trojans’ Olecia James and Chauntelle Hutton by a clean sweep of 6-0, 6-0 to help the Aggies advance to the state semifi nals with a 5-2 triumph.

The colleagues faced South Pontotoc High School’s Lau-ren Heath and Haylee Fin-ley in one of the best prep matches of the year in the Magnolia State. Bradley and Rencher took the fi rst set 7-6, but lost the second 5-7 and the tiebreaker 3-10 to end the season in the MHSAA Class 3A North Half championship contest.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame coach Brian Kel-ly on Saturday dismissed talk that he needs to do a better job of recruiting players who are better students to avoid the academic problems that have plagued the football pro-gram for the past 15 months.

“I think we’ve brought in the right young men,” he said. “I think we have to continue to do a better job educating

them. We have to do a better job of providing the resourc-es.”

The news conference was the fi rst time Kelly talked to the media since the university announced a day earlier that starting cornerback KeiVarae Russell, leading returning receiver DaVaris Daniels, de-fensive end Ishaq Williams and backup linebacker Kend-all Moore were being withheld from practices and games un-til the university completes

an investigation into whether papers and homework they turned in were completed by others.

Kelly said none one in-volved in the investigation has asked to talk to him or his staff. He cautioned against as-suming the players are guilty, saying the investigation is on-going.

Kelly said it’s his job as head coach to create an envi-ronment where players know they can’t cut corners.

“If you let your players do whatever they want and they feel like they’re not account-able, then I don’t think you should be a head coach,” he said. “I think if you create an environment and you lay out the expectations of your pro-gram and their not met, then they should be held account-able.”

“Look, this is never a one-sided issue. We have to inter-

ATLANTA — Chris Johnson drove in two runs with three hits, Julio Teheran threw six strong innings and the Atlan-ta Braves edged the suddenly struggling Oakland Athletics 4-3 on Saturday night.

The A’s, who began the day with the best record in the ma-jors, matched their worst skid

of the season by losing four in a row. They’ve dropped six of seven overall. Teheran (11-9) gave up two runs on four hits and three walks. The Braves had lost 12 of 15 before win-ning the fi rst two games of the series. Craig Kimbrel got his 36th save in 40 chances.

Sonny Gray (12-7) allowed four runs in 5 1-3 innings in his fourth straight defeat.

Stephen Vogt hit a two-run homer and John Jaso also homered for Oakland. The A’s also lost four straight from May 22-25. Atlanta closed it out after Josh Reddick led off the A’s ninth with a long fl y ball that Justin Upton caught at the left-fi eld wall.

Freddie Freeman hit an RBI double and scored on John-son’s single to give Atlanta a

2-0 lead in the fi rst. Upton led off the fourth with a single and scored on Andrelton Sim-mons’ two-out, bloop single to left fi eld for a 3-0 lead. Jaso’s homer off Jordan Walden in the eighth cut the lead to one run. Upton walked to lead off Atlanta’s sixth and scored from fi rst on Johnson’s third hit, a hit-and-run single to left-center.

BROOKLYN, Mich. — The fi nishes seem implausible, es-pecially because they’ve come in succession — 42nd place at Daytona, 42nd at New Hampshire, a brief improve-ment to 14th at the Brickyard, followed by a dip to 39th at Pocono and 28th at Watkins Glen.

This is Jimmie Johnson, NASCAR’s six-time Sprint Cup champion?

“It has been a very challeng-ing year,” Johnson said. “We started off without the speed that we wanted. We got the speed back and then the luck left. So, we choose to look at it as we’re getting all this out of the way so we can have 10 great races.”

With three victories on the season, Johnson is safely in the Chase for the Sprint Cup, but lately the No. 48 car has had its share of problems. The latest setback came Fri-

day when Johnson fi nished 30th in qualifying at Michi-gan International Speedway, complaining afterward about a vibrating car.

Johnson won at MIS earlier this season — his third victory in four races at the time — but based on his recent form, a repeat isn’t looking especially likely in Sunday’s Cup race.

Johnson fi nished in the top 10 two more times after win-ning at Michigan in June. Then his run of misfortune

began. He was one of several top contenders taken out by a couple huge accidents at Daytona, then tire issues did him in at New Hampshire. He fell a lap down at Pocono af-ter his rear right tire smacked the wall. He rebounded to run fi fth, then a second blown tire forced him to the garage.

More of the same last week-end at Watkins Glen: With only a few laps to go, Johnson was bumped and his No. 48 spun around.

RENCHER

RECRUITS

Bradley and Rencher qualifi ed for the MHSAA Class 3A State Tourna-ment as individuals and were ranked as the No. 9 overall seed. They faced Mooreville High School’s Myriam Sanders and Shelby Miller at the Ridgeland Tennis Center on May 1.

“It feels great. I want to bring a great sense of sportsmanship and just bring all I have and do the best I can,” Rencher said. “I’m very excited about the season and what everybody has in

store.”Rencher was heavily

involved with multiple activities at Kossuth and was a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), the Fu-ture Business Leaders of America (FBLA), the Math and Science Club, the Spanish Club and the National Honor Society.

She also gives back to the community on a con-sistent basis by serving in a mentoring program, coordinating a blood drive at Kossuth and vol-unteering at the annual Corinth Coca-Cola Clas-sic 10K Run.

nally look at providing our student-athletes all of the resources neces-sary that, if in fact if they took shortcuts, that they don’t. We have to look hard at that,” he said.

Players know the high standards of Notre Dame, Kelly said, adding that his rules of conduct for players are posted in the locker room: “Treat women with respect, don’t cheat, don’t lie and don’t steal.”

Kelly said he doesn’t have any more informa-tion about the investiga-tion than what the uni-versity announced at the news conference Friday, saying as a coach he will be “on the outside look-ing in.” He said his re-action to the news was “shock and disappoint-ment.”

But Kelly said he’s proud that Notre Dame has high standards, say-ing it’s one of the rea-son he accepted the job. “We don’t look the other way,” he said.

The Irish, who open the season against Rice on Aug. 30, have faced other academic prob-lems. Starting quarter-back Everett Golson missed last season be-cause of academic im-propriety and Daniels sat out the spring semester. Kelly described them as “good kids who made bad decisions.”

If the players aren’t allowed to return this season as a result of the investigation, it will be diffi cult to overcome, Kelly said.

“As players, you don’t replace KeiVarae Rus-sell. He’s one of the best corners we’ve had here in some time. But we’ll fi nd a way,” he said. “You don’t replace a guy like that.”

“We’re going to have to count on other play-ers to step up and do the job for us,” he said. Kelly said he’s not wor-ried about Notre Dame possibly having to va-cate some past victories, including possibly from the 2012 season when the Irish went 12-1 and their lone loss was to Alabama in the national title game. He said it

wouldn’t change his view of that season.

“I’ve never really counted my victories,” he said. “It’s not something I really spend much time thinking about.”

It’s been a tumultu-ous time at Notre Dame since Kelly arrived fol-lowing the 2009 season, with a student manager killed when the scissor lift he was on toppled in high winds in 2010, sev-eral high-profi le players being arrested and the academic troubles. Kelly was asked whether those issues refl ected on his leadership.

“This isn’t the time to have a debate on what my leadership or lack thereof is. My focus is on my football team and getting this team ready. There’s a time and place for that. People have their opinions and cer-tainly they’re entitled to them.

I’m going to focus on this football team and getting it ready for two weeks for Rice.”

Professional photog-rapher Margaret Bradley loves weddings.

When she opened her photography studio in 1989, weddings were her specialty.

“I’m so happy when I’m at a wedding,” said Brad-ley. “I love seeing people’s dreams come true.”

Bradley has always wanted to add her cre-ative touch to the wed-dings she attends.

“I’ve always seemed to have a knack for event planning, but have never really had a chance to ful-fi ll it,” she said.

Until now.Bradley’s dream of

opening her own wed-ding venue came to frui-tion in June when she purchased a recently con-verted warehouse space in the new SoCo District in downtown Corinth.

“I had been planning on building a barn ven-ue next to my studio for some time,” Bradley said. “I had ran into some trou-ble with the city with get-ting city water installed on my property.”

When downtown devel-opers Trey Albright and Stuart Green got wind of the photographer’s trou-bles, the duo called Brad-ley with a proposition.

“They offered me The Venue on Franklin Street,” said the 25-year photography veteran. “When they heard I was hitting some road blocks with the city with my property, they wanted to help. It took a lot of think-ing, planning and dis-cussing on my part, but it fi nally ended up working out for the both of us.”

Bradley, and her daughter Darcie McCoy, hit the ground running at the rustic rental space.

With new owners, came a new name -- The Frank-lin Courtyard.

The 10,000 square foot

venue, which features a back patio overlook-ing Corinth’s historic train tracks, is bursting at the seams with charm. The 100-year-old his-toric warehouse had been beautifully renovated and included a gorgeous out-door courtyard.

“I really like this space, it feels like home to me,” said Bradley. “I love the history in downtown Corinth, and I love own-ing a business in the heart of it all.”

Bradley has added a few new features to the venue.

“We’re super excited about the lighted onyx bar and prep kitchen we are installing right now,” she said. “Trey and Stuart had done a lot of work to the space before I brought it, but there was still some things that I could do and add my touch to.”

Bradley had a projec-tion screen with remote installed over the elevat-ed stage. She also had air conditioning and heating installed in the outdoor courtyard.

“It’s great to be able to offer outdoor heating and air ... that’s unheard of in this area,” she said. “It’s very neat.”

McCoy said she loves the simplicity and versa-tility of the venue.

“It’s a great blank slate for any event. That’s what I love most about it -- no matter what theme a bride wants, this place will match it. It’s a great foun-dation,” McCoy added. “This is a great space for anything from a wedding, rehearsal dinner or corpo-rate event. The space can accommodate a birthday party of 20 people or a wedding with 500 guests.”

Bradley is especially proud of the venue’s most recent addition.

“I got a call from the First United Methodist Chapel. They were getting a new piano and wanted to donate their old one,”

she said.According to Bradley,

the baby grand piano is over 50 years old, and can be used by anyone who rents the space. Also available with the rental of the space are tables and chairs.

Bradley said a renter has the option to custom-ize their package.

“We can do everything or we can just provide the building,” she said. “We can do the planning, the food, the music ... and the photography, of course.”

Bradley recently fi n-ished up at culinary arts school, as well.

Business has been good for mother-daughter team so far.

“It’s booking fast. People are calling all the time,” said Bradley. “We already have weddings and events booked for 2015.”

Bradley still hopes to one day build and open the barn venue on her

property, until then she’s content helping make people’s dreams come true downtown at The Franklin Courtyard.

COLUMBUS — Have a conversation with John Ross, and topics like par-affi n tests, toxicology, in-sect larvae and such may come up.

It’s not that Ross, a re-tired Air Force colonel in Columbus, is preoccu-pied with criminal nature or the macabre. It’s only that forensic science fas-cinates him.

Ross is a former direc-tor of law enforcement for the Air Force, and later was a security manager for a high-tech engineer-ing fi rm, advising on anti-terrorism and counterter-rorism strategies. He also taught law enforcement and security sessions for base commanders. He’s spent a lot of time on how to thwart folks who are up to no good.

This fall, Ross will share some of his insights with up to 35 participants in forensic science applica-

tions, a six-week course he will teach for Mis-sissippi University for Women. The non-credit courses for adults touch on a range of subjects tied to the application of scientifi c methods and techniques to the investi-gation of crime.

Ross’ approach to the class will be a broad-brush, non-technical look at actual events. The Charles Lindbergh child kidnapping case, the Is-raeli raid on Entebbe, Uganda, explosives detec-tion and forensic appli-cations in espionage and entitlement fraud cases are up for discussion.

Ross, 72, readily states up front that he earned his degree in forensic sci-ence in 1974, and that he’s been retired from the air force for 23 years. A lot has changed in the fi eld since then.

“I’m not an expert on anything, but I do have some things I learned and

things I’ve kept up with that I think will be of in-terest,” he said with mod-esty.

One thing would-be amateur detectives can look forward to is exam-ining an actual case his-tory.

“Here is a human skel-eton, and it’s been found on a beach not far from Charleston, South Caro-lina,” Ross began. “Some-body reports it, you show up, what do you do? What kind of expertise is required to determine who did what and when, where, why and how?”

Some answers might be found in a paper Ross once wrote, titled “Es-tablishing the Post Mor-tem Interval.” ‘‘Or,” he grinned, “How Long Has This Guy Been Dead?”

“Back in my day, the fi rst thing I’d look for is the presence or absence of post mortem lividity, or gravitational lividity,” the instructor said. Livid-

ity in this instance, simply defi ned, is the pooling of blood in the lowest part of the body, creating discol-oration.

“If lividity is on his back and you fi nd him on his face, you know he’s been moved,” Ross noted. An-other clue is insect larvae. “You just have to know the life cycle of insects,” he continued.

Another example of how the fi eld has changed is the vast range of spe-cialized experts today.

“You can fi nd an expert on almost anything now if you look hard enough,” Ross remarked. He cit-ed a kidnapping case in which an expert on wood played an integral role. Sometimes an investiga-tion turns on the smallest detail. “Here, we’re sur-rounded by universities; I could foresee an agron-omy or soil expert being called in if you’ve got, say, somebody’s boots that have stepped on a certain

kind of sand or soil.”Ross’ studies and career

have made him a witness to law enforcement evolu-tion. He remembers when the Miranda decision on the rights of arrested per-sons was handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1966 and how signifi -cantly it impacted law enforcement. In the fi eld of detector dogs, he saw training expand from the nitrate-based explosives work he once was involved in to teaching dogs to fi nd peroxide-based explosives — in part, due to “Shoe Bomber” Richard Reed who tried to bring down an American Airlines fl ight with a device hidden in his shoe in 2001.

“Forensic science is so far advanced now,” Ross observed. “When I look back at the tools we had then ... “

The television indus-try latched on years ago to the public’s interest in forensics. A prolifera-

tion of shows like “CSI,” ‘‘NCIS,” ‘‘Bones,” ‘‘Crimi-nal Minds,” ‘‘Dexter” and “Body of Proof” have catered to it and are fre-quently loose in their por-trayal of the science for entertainment purposes. One might think Ross would watch them all, but no — although he does occasionally catch “NCIS” with his wife, Anne, who enjoys the show.

Anne, it could be said, may be Ross’ favorite “cold case.” The two dat-ed in high school, in Au-burn, Alabama. “But she dumped me,” he laughed. “We got another go at it four years ago when we reconnected at our 50th high school reunion.” The couple has lived in down-town Columbus for the past two years and im-mersed themselves in the community. It didn’t take them long to discover Mississippi University for Women’s life enrichment program.

“It’s a great blank slate

for any event. That’s what I love most

about it -- no matter what

theme a bride wants, this

place will match it. It’s a great foundation.”

Hopper Golden Anniversary

Many couples fi nd themselves bombarded with questions the mo-ment they become en-gaged, and perhaps no questions is more com-mon than, “When is the wedding?”

Although a number of couples would prefer to bask in the excitement of their engagement, some couples feel pressured to rush into picking a wedding date. Choosing a wedding date without giving it much consider-ation may make things more diffi cult down the road. Rather than jump-ing head fi rst into any decisions, couples should give thought to any and all dates and decide if there are certain times of the year they want to tie the knot or avoid.

Season

When thinking about potential wedding dates, it helps to have a place to start. Some couples fi nd it helpful to start with a particular season and then narrow it down from there. Decide if you prefer the lush greenery of summer or the amaz-ing color spectrum of an autumn afternoon. Per-haps you envision arriv-

ing at the ceremony with a snow-packed landscape amid twinkling holiday lights? Think about the season when you feel most happy and then determine if that time of year is doable.

Month

Certain months may seem perfect, but not for busy professionals or those with limited vacation time at their disposal. For example, early spring may not be good for accountants tallying year-end num-bers. Teachers may feel most comfortable tying the knot in the summer when they already have days off. If you run a pool business or a lawn main-tenance company, then the summer might not be so good. Keep these fac-tors in mind.

Holidays

Some people would like to tie their wedding day to a particular holi-day. Valentine’s Day is popular for weddings thanks to the romantic sentiments synonymous with the holiday, while some couples prefer Halloween or Christmas

weddings. Holiday wed-dings can be exciting, but they also produce signifi cant obstacles that couples who choose to get married during other times of year don’t have to worry about. Guests may not want to travel or spend time away from their families to attend a holiday wedding. Having a wedding during a holi-day may mean compet-ing for vendors and re-ception spaces. Prices on everything from food to fl owers to airline tickets could be higher as ven-dors cash in on customer demand.

Day of the week

It’s less expensive for couples to get married on Fridays and Sundays than Saturday afternoons or evenings. Couples may think that the money saved will be well worth it, but they also should think about how this de-cision may affect their guests. A Friday wedding requires people to take off from work or school. Sunday weddings may be slightly more convenient, but those who have to get back to work on Monday may be tired from late-night festivities. Couples

should anticipate some guests not making it to their weddings when those weddings are not on Saturdays.

Religious constraints

Couples having reli-gious ceremonies should consult with their houses of worship as to which dates are acceptable. Some will not have wed-dings on days of religious observation. It is wise to consult with a church, synagogue or mosque before booking any other components of the wed-ding so that you are cer-tain your chosen day is acceptable.

Any available dates

Your wedding date may be dictated by your cater-er or wedding hall. If you have a particular venue in mind, you may be limited by their availability. This is a concession you will need to make if your heart is set on this particular lo-cation.

Planning a wedding can be exciting. But the ball cannot get rolling until couples fi rst choose the day they will tie the knot.

Choose a wedding date wisely

Few events are more photographed than wed-dings. Needless to say, wedding participants, from brides and grooms to the couples’ parents, hope to look their best for the celebrations. Women often fi nd that well applied cosmetics can enhance their beauty and help ensure they are picture-perfect.

The key to wedding makeup is fi nding a bal-ance between application that will come across well in person and will look good in photographs. Professional makeup art-ists may understand just how heavy a hand to use to apply makeup, but the novice do-it-yourselfer may need some instruc-tion to master wedding day makeup.

Very often the key to wedding makeup is sim-plicity. Brides want their best features enhanced and have the makeup add to their beauty rather than outshine it. Brides want guests to notice their faces and gowns and not their makeup. Here are some other tips brides can employ in an effort to put their best faces forward.

• Begin preparations a few days prior to the wedding. If you will be enhancing your skin col-or with a spray-tan, do so at least two days prior to the wedding. By the third day the color will set and appear more natural. The same idea applies to your brows. Tweezing, wax-ing and threading can create irritation and red-ness. Have your brows professionally shaped a few days before the wed-ding and then do a mi-nor touch-up with your tweezer the night before. This allows your skin to

recover and redness to dissipate.

• Start out with well hy-drated and moisturized skin. Apply a few layers of moisturizer, prefer-ably one with an SPF if you will be spending time out in the sun. When the moisturizer is completely absorbed and dry, use a skin priming product that will help keep your foundation locked into place.

• Match your founda-tion color to your natural skin color. When these colors don’t match, your face may look like it is a separate shade from your neck and decolletage. If you will be tanning, then fi nd a shade that matches the tanned color. A foun-dation that has slightly yellow undertones will even out redness on the face and look better in photos. Apply the foun-dation thoroughly with a sponge or brush and be sure to blend it well at your neckline. Set the foundation with a matte powder.

• Apply concealer to red spots or undereye cir-cles after the foundation. Aim for a creamy, emol-lient concealer for under the eyes. A peach color

that will contrast with the purple and blue tones of your eyelids. Putting on the concealer after the foundation means you will probably need less and won’t look like you’re caked with product.

• Use an eyebrow pencil or powder to fi ll in your brows. This is a must for your wedding day and can really help to frame your eyes. Use small, light fl icks of the pencil rather than long strokes to make the color blend natural-ly. Use a brush to blend in further. Always go a shade or two lighter than your natural color. Finish with a gel that will set the hairs into place.

• Complement your lips and eyes. Many brides like to play up their eyes on their wedding days. If you are going for a dra-matic eye, opt for a more neutral lip, and vice ver-sa. Otherwise, you may look like you’re wearing stage makeup. Neutral colors look best for wed-dings and will not appear dated in photos. Stick to subtle browns and taupes for universal fl attery on most eye colors.

Use a light hand to apply a neutral shade of light shadow all over the lid. Apply a medium brown to the crease of the eye and a darker brown to the very outer corner, and blend thoroughly. A very light shade of shad-ow can be used directly under the browline and toward the inside of the eye to make eyes appear wide and bright. Stick with matte shades of eye shadow, with the excep-tion of one pearlescent shade that is lightly dust-ed right in the center of the lid from the lashline to the crease. This will add just a touch of lus-

ter to catch the light and make eyes sparkle.

• Apply liner before mascara, and blend it with a brush. Push the liner into the lashline to make lashes appear thicker. Use mascara to lengthen lashes. Place a makeup sponge behind your lashes when apply-ing mascara so you don’t risk hitting your lids with the mascara wand. If you will be using false lashes, apply them now. Err on the shorter side for fake lashes, and cut them as needed to fi t your eye. Lashes that are too long or full may appear car-toonish and can be un-comfortable to wear. Connect your lashes to-gether with the false ones with another application of mascara. Waterproof mascara will hold up through tears of joy.

• Be subtle with blush. Use subtle blush in a peach-pink color to achieve that blushing bride appearance. Smile and apply the blush only to the apples of your cheeks.

• Choose a long-lasting lip color that will hold up through kisses and smiles. Lip stains work very well, as they pro-vide that hint of color but wear well during the day.

Another helpful tip is to perform a practice run prior to the wedding, tak-ing some photographs to see how the makeup looks in pictures. Cam-eras and fl ashes can wash out makeup, so some-times you need to apply just a little bit more than usual for it to show up on fi lm. Also, certain make-up products will refl ect light more. Don’t forget to stock up on oil-blot-ting papers to touch up your face during the day.

Tips can create perfect wedding makeup

According to TheKnot.com, a Web site catering to couples planning their weddings, roses reign su-preme among wedding fl owers.

Long considered a symbol of love, roses often play an integral role on wedding days as well as holidays like Val-entine’s Day or special events like a couple’s

wedding anniversary.Couples embrace roses

on their wedding days not only to symbolize their love for one another, but also because roses are a versatile fl ower available in numerous solid colors and many bicolor variet-ies. Tulips are another popular wedding fl ower. Also grown in a wide range of colors, tulips are

often less expensive than roses, though rare vari-eties of tulips will cost brides- and grooms-to-be a signifi cant amount of money.

Though less versatile than roses and tulips with regards to their col-or, calla lily fl owers are another popular choice for weddings. Lily of the valley, hydrangeas, the

peony, and ranunculus are also popular wedding fl owers.

Though each type of fl ower is beautiful in its own way, costs can vary considerably depending on the type of fl owers couples choose for their wedding, something cost-conscious couples should consider before visiting fl orists.

Wedding flowers offer options for ceremony

Choose a long-lasting lip color that will hold up through kisses

and smiles. Lip stains work

very well, as they provide that hint of

color but wear well during the

day.

NEW YORK — Michael Cera released an indie folk album last week — quietly, in a way almost as unassuming as the actor himself.

“I would record a lot of the songs in the middle of the night just at home. I never thought any-one would ever listen to them,” he said in an inter-view Thursday. “It’s really nice that people are pay-ing any attention to it be-cause there’s a lot of stuff to listen to.”

The 26-year-old, whose TV and fi lm credits in-clude “Arrested Devel-opment,” ‘‘Juno” and “Superbad,” dropped the 18-song album, “true that,” on the Bandcamp website on Aug. 8. He said he was “bored a few days ago” and decided to make a page on the web-site for people to check out his music.

It went largely over-

looked until his acting buddy Jonah Hill tweeted a link Wednesday.

The album, which streams for free and costs $7 to download, is made up of airy, folky tracks, some just wordless frag-ments, some more fully fl eshed out. Some songs are covers and others have borrowed sound, ranging from a TV reporter swear-ing after swallowing a bug to a piece of dialogue lifted from the 1973 fi lm “O Lucky Man!” starring Malcolm McDowell.

“I think it has some value in that sense. It’s honest. It’s just an effort,” Cera said, adding that he created the songs with GarageBand software. “I’m limited by many things — my abilities, my imagination and my tech-nology.”

Cera said the album’s quiet launch was a nod from Beyonce’s playbook. The pop diva released her top-selling self-titled al-

bum last year without the public knowing.

“I didn’t want anyone to take it seriously or think that I was taking it seriously by it being a big thing,” said Cera, who sang backing vocals and played mandolin on Wee-zer’s 2010 album, “Hur-ley.”

“It’s there now. Now people can hear the stuff I’ve spent time with and care about for a long time.”

Cera, who is preparing to make his Broadway debut next month op-posite Kieran Culkin and Tavi Gevinson in Kenneth Lonergan’s play “This Is Our Youth,” said making music is relaxing and fun to do with friends, but he never planned on a re-cording career.

“A friend of mine said to me, ‘I think you’re too careful with your music.’ I thought that was a nice, honest criticism from a friend,” he said.

“He was right.”

Michael Cera releases album he calls ‘honest’

BY MARK KENNEDYAP Entertainment Writer

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard of country dude duo Florida Georgia Line know all eyes on Music Row are on them as they prepare to release their second album, “Anything Goes,” on Oct. 14.

Everybody wants to see if country’s favorite party boys can keep the fes-tivities rolling, and Kelley and Hubbard don’t really mind.

“A little bit of that pres-sure creates some pretty good creativity,” Kelley said. “We just pushed re-ally hard — little melody changes, adding little things here, an 808 drop there, a breakdown here, a different guitar lick there, whatever it may be, we really spent a lot of time on the little details.

“Better is better, and that’s our motto.”

For the most part, the 12 tracks on the Joey Moi-produced album mine the same high-spirited terri-tory as debut “Here’s to the Good Times” — upbeat rockers meant to evoke midnight bonfi re parties at the lake. Their music is part of a trend that some within the community say has pushed country’s sound too far toward the pop music middle.

Their fans, however, could care less, and made their “Cruise” remix fea-turing Nelly the most popular digital download in country music. While there is no rapping, the duo listened to the fans

on “Anything Goes” and continued to push the boundaries of the genre.

They completely ditch the metaphor and sing openly about smoking marijuana on “Sun Daze,” perhaps setting up a diffi -cult choice for radio pro-gram directors. And then there are the 808 bass drops on a handful of songs that will no doubt drive country purists cra-zy, but add an interesting counterpoint to the sun-shine bright rock guitar tones on the album.

“We took all that good energy and the success that (the fans) have given us and put it into mak-ing this next record, and I think it shows,” Kelley said. “There’s a couple sad songs, there’s a cou-ple that make you think, but at the same time it’s a party album. It’s a feel-good album. Right when you get to the last song you’re going to want to

start it all over again. It’s right exactly 100 percent where we are in our lives.”

And that’s a pretty good place with the line between work and play completely blurred. When they’re not on the road partying with fans, their crossover success has allowed them to up the fun while home. Hub-bard built an air-lover’s dirt bike track in his backyard. And Kelley’s about to reveal his awe-some new treehouse Fri-day night on the Animal Planet reality show “Tree-house Masters.” He calls it breathtaking.

“The treehouse is two stories of adult childlike fun, man,” Kelley said. “It’s hard to put in words what this treehouse is. It’s a studio, it’s a living space, it’s a creative space. It’s spiritual. I’ve never seen anything like it.

“Record 3, we’ll be do-ing a lot of vocals there.”
