People who get on the wrong side of the law will fi nd some changing fees and fi nes in Corinth Municipal Court.
The Board of Aldermen re-
cently approved a new fi ne schedule as recommended by the court clerk along with one new and one increased fee that will be assessed on tickets.
The municipal court fee, which is assessed on each cita-
tion, will increase to $40 from $25, and a new “tech fee” of $10 will be added to all traffi c cita-tions.
The new fi ne schedule has a mix of increases and decreases.
“Most of the stuff that I call
‘poor person’s fi nes,’ which would be no insurance, no tag, no driver’s license, most of those I kept the same or either they went down,” said Court Clerk Zane Elliott.
Fines for some offenses such
as stealing and shoplifting in-creased to be more in line with fi nes in cities such as Oxford, Tupelo and Starkville, he said, although the fi nes still run about

Anytime someone spots something rare, it is always a momentous occasion and in-triguing to others as well.
This was the case for Dexter and his wife Carolyn Stanfi eld of Burnville when they saw a rare white hummingbird feeding in their yard last week. They want-ed to share their unusual experi-ence with others.
“We were excited and sur-prised when we saw the white hummingbird because we knew how rare they were,” Mrs. Stan-fi eld said. “The bird stayed around for about six days and then departed. We got some great pictures of it.”
For those who don’t know
the basic facts about humming-birds, these birds are small, col-orful birds with iridescent feath-ers. Their name comes from the fact that they fl ap their wings so fast (about 80 times per sec-ond) that they make a humming noise. Hummingbirds can fl y right, left, up, down, backwards, and even upside down. They are also able to hover by fl apping their wings in a fi gure-8 pattern. They have a specialized long and tapered bill that is used to obtain nectar from the center of long, tubular fl owers. The humming-bird’s feet are used for perching only, and are not used for hop-ping or walking.
That’s not enough rarity in itself, however, seeing a white hummingbird is even more of a
slim occasion, according to Pat-rick Poindexter, County Direc-tor at the Mississippi State Ex-tension Center in Corinth.
“This is the fi rst report I have heard of a white hummingbird in this part of the county,” Pi-ondexter said. “Even if it is not a true ‘Albino’ hummingbird, the ‘Leucistic’ hummingbirds are still rare as well.”
A true albino hummingbird -- one that has white feathers and pink eyes, feet, and bill is an extremely rare site and the Leucistic hummingbirds are also still rare but are seen more often than true albinos. Leucis-tic are more like “normal” hum-mingbirds, lecistic forms, as far

Northeast Mississippi Com-munity College reported an enrollment decrease for the new school year.
The college’s total enroll-ment is a little more than 3,200, including 793 from Al-corn County and about 2,500 from the immediate fi ve-county area.
“All of us are seeing some decrease,” said College Presi-dent Johnny Allen, referring to colleges across the state.
One reason is adult stu-dents who returned to college during the economic down-turn are now decreasing in numbers, he said. Some have found work or left school for other reasons.
A new Census Bureau report released last week also cited declining adult enrollment. College enrollment for fall 2012 was down by 467,000

The resurgence of the old street scam “pigeon drop” has prompted one Corinth elderly resident to step for-ward to share an experience to the public about meeting two strangers with a plan that if carried out would have cost him $6,000.
Like most “pigeon drops,” the scam involved two peo-ple, an elaborate story of someone coming into some money and the fi nal catch that a third party needs to buy in to the idea.
“It was a well-thought out scam,” said the Corinth man, who wished to remain anon-ymous. “I let it go too far. They hit on me because I was elderly.”
The Corinth Police Depart-ment said reports of the scam are on the rise in the city. It has happened twice in the past few weeks, including an elderly woman who lost $900 and another victim who lost $750.
It’s one of the oldest scams

Lacrissa Dover of Leighton, Ala., shows painted, dried gourds turned into handmade Halloween deco-rations. The art is the work of Dover’s sister, Kathy Hester. The two said they would return to the Green Market in October.
And no downtown Corinth event is com-plete without the sound of an approaching train as a black Norfolk-Southern locomotive roars past on its way to Memphis.
It’s called the Green Market and it’s bursting at its seams.
“It’s a huge family-style, social event,” said Crossroads Museum Ex-ecutive Director Brandy Steen.
“It just keeps getting better and better.”
The event, which once won a statewide award for tourism, had 56 ven-dors in the area known as the C.A.R.E garden at The Depot, 16 of which are enjoying the venue for the very fi rst time.
In its fi fth year, the Green Market is the main fundraiser for the museum through vendor fees.
“We have brand new vendors with every mar-ket,” added Zack Steen, a committee member and founding member. “It’s amazing. Just out of the blue they show up.”
Tommy Ledbetter is another committee member and founding member.
“It gets better and more organized every year,” noted Ledbetter. “This brings people to town who would not oth-erwise come.”
Both Ledbetter and Zack Steen agreed there are many downtown businesses who see the benefi t of more people coming downtown.
“Many businesses see the potential in the draw,” added Zack.
Many visitors Satur-day were seen checking out Corinth’s newest de-velopment -- the SoCo District -- or strolling down Fillmore.
Sherry Russell of Lou-isville, Miss. got up at 2 a.m. Saturday to be at the Corinth event -- one she has not missed this year.
“We do pretty well here,” said Russell, who hand crafts her jewelry when not busy with cus-tomers.
“That’s why we keep coming back.”
Many local and region-al craft and food produc-ers love the event, includ-ing the mother-daughter tandem of Diane Spears and Kerri Smith of Krazy Ladies Crafts and Sew-ing of Corinth.
“We’ve made a lot of friends at this event,” noted Kerri Smith, as she enjoyed lunch with her mother and other fam-ily members under a tent displaying handmade aprons and wreaths.
“We are selling more and more,” added Diane Spears, who designs the
patterns and daughter makes the fi nished prod-ucts.
“It just keeps grow-ing.”
Zack thinks one reason for the growth has been the result of the popu-larity and affordabil-ity of repurposed items, examples being an old Chevy pickup tailgate for a bench, an arbor made from two old wooden doors and rustic, dis-carded windows made into coffee tables.
Brandy Steen wanted to show off a vendor who was selling an old school desk which had been brightly repainted and the desk portion was converted to a chalk board to keep kids busy.
Too late. The desk had already
sold.“There are large
amounts of people sell-ing reused items,” added Zack.
Plans for the Green Market call for the push to seek more local peo-ple with fresh produce, live plants and fl owers. Vendors with 90 percent produce get to set up free of charge.
“We would love to have fi ve to 10 of these at every market,” noted Zack.
Both Steens and Led-better credited the suc-cess of the event to the hard work of the com-mittee.
Melissa Carson, Lisa Green and Suzanne Coo-per are committee mem-bers and founders.
Other committee members include chair-person Janice Knighton and Cathy Wood, who are also museum board members.
“We’ve been through a lot of change,” added Ledbetter. “And most of it for the good.”
Produced seven times a year on the fi rst Satur-day of the month except November, the Green Market is already plan-ning for its two huge events to close the year.
Heritage Day and Green Market will fea-ture quilters, live dem-onstrations and the popular Pet Costume Contest on Oct. 5. It’s an 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. market.
The RED Green Mar-ket will be staged from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Nov. 23, and applications will be available later this month.
Brandy noted the Oc-tober and November markets are usually the biggest of the year.
“All of this is pretty amazing,” added Zack. “And a whole lot of fun.”

Today in
history
Today is Sunday, Sept. 8, the 251st day of 2013. There are 114 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight:
On September 8, 1943, during World War II, Gen. Dwight E. Eisen-hower announced Italy’s surrender; Nazi Germany denounced Italy’s deci-sion as a cowardly act.
On this date:
In 1565, a Spanish expedition established the first permanent Euro-pean settlement in North America at present-day St. Augustine, Fla.
In 1761, Britain’s King George III married Prin-cess Charlotte of Meck-lenburg-Strelitz just a few hours after meeting her for the first time.
In 1892, an early ver-sion of “The Pledge of Allegiance,” written by Francis Bellamy, ap-peared in “The Youth’s Companion.”
In 1900, Galveston, Texas, was struck by a hurricane that killed an estimated 8,000 people.
In 1913, the Victor Herbert operetta “Sweet-hearts” opened on Broad-way.
In 1921, Margaret Gor-man, 16, of Washington, D.C., was crowned the first “Miss America” in Atlantic City, N.J.
In 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long, D-La., was shot and mortally wounded inside the Louisiana State Capitol; he died two days later. (The assailant was identified as Dr. Carl Weiss, who was gunned down by Long’s body-guards.)
In 1951, a peace treaty with Japan was signed by 49 nations in San Fran-cisco.
In 1974, President Ger-ald R. Ford granted an unconditional pardon to former President Richard Nixon.
In 1988, two nuclear-missile rocket motors were destroyed at an army ammunition plant in Karnack, Texas; they were the first U.S. weapons to be eliminated under an arms reduction treaty with the Soviet Union.
In 1994, a USAir Boe-ing 737 crashed into a ravine as it was ap-proaching Pittsburgh In-ternational Airport, killing all 132 people on board.
Ten years ago:
The Recording Industry Association of America, the music industry’s larg-est trade group, filed 261 copyright lawsuits across the country against In-ternet users for trading songs online. Nazi-era filmmaker Leni Riefen-stahl died in Poecking, Germany, at age 101.
Five years ago:
In a pointed but mostly symbolic expression of displeasure with Moscow, President George W. Bush canceled a once-celebrated civilian nuclear cooperation deal with Russia.
from a year earlier af-ter a period of substan-tial growth from 2006 to 2011. The bureau said the decline was driven by students 25 and older. Their enrollment fell by 419,000, while the enroll-ment of younger students declined by 48,000.
Sharing numbers from
his annual report with the Alcorn County Board
of Supervisors, Allen said the county sees a return of $6 per dollar of mill-age revenue allocated to the college. The county has 5 mills designated for maintenance, enlarge-ment and improvement at Northeast, generating $991,564 in fi scal 2013.
The 107 Alcorn County
residents who are em-ployed at Northeast bring home an annual payroll of $2.1 million, Allen said. Alcorn continues to have the largest student enroll-ment out of the fi ve-coun-ty area. Total fi nancial aid to Alcorn County students in FY 2013 was $3.83 mil-lion, including $21,725 from the county tuition guarantee.
REPORT

on the street. If carried out successfully, the fraud leaves a victim with a bag full of noth-ing and a little shorter on cash.
In the man’s case who decided to step forward, it was typical in the story begins in a parking lot of local businesses and near a bank with a meet-ing with a stranger, a move police say is the fi rst indication of what might unfold in the swindle.
A middle-aged black man inquired if the man was acquainted with the area and showed him a piece of paper which read, “African Baptist Church -- Third Floor.”
The potential victim wasn’t aware of any three story buildings in Corinth, but the story continued as the scam artist kept rolling around two rolls of money which appeared to be $100 bills on the outside.
The next move to take the stranger to a local church is what police say is the most dangerous part of the scam because the elderly person is the most vulnerable in this situation.
After stopping at a lo-cal fast food restaurant for the man to use the restroom, the detailed story began to develop.
“He claimed he had a letter from a law fi rm in South Africa stating that he was the heir to a $800,000 settlement for the death of his brother during the airline crash into the Potomac River south of Washington D.C. ... he informed me he had $80,000 he could not take back to South Africa and his lawyer advised him to donate it to charity. He was looking for someone to assist him in fi nding an organization to do-nate the same.”
During the entire con-versation, the swindle expert continued to move the rolls of money from pocket to pocket, explained the potential victim.
The next part of the story is what police say will usually happen, a third party will enter the picture and become part of the deal offer.
The third party — de-scribed as a younger, well-dressed black male — was offered a deal
that if he could fi nd an organization to donate $35,000, he could keep $5,000 for his efforts, the man explained.
Some “good faith” had to be shown for trust purposes with an ask-ing price of $2,000. Of course, the third party left the deal making ses-sion and returned with the $2,000 to satisfy the deal, according to the potential victim.
“He then turned to me and offered me $40,000. I could keep $7,000 if I would fi nd a worthy charity to donate the same,” said the man.
Bingo.“By this time I realized
this was a scam,” he ad-mitted.
Police say this is where successful swindlers get the cash from the victim from a local bank, then leave them holding an empty bag -- hence, “pi-geon drop.”
“Never let strangers in your vehicle,” Detec-tive Capt. Ralph Dance recently told the Daily Corinthian after two suc-cessful “pigeon drops” on local victims.
This potential victim went a step further after realizing a scam was in the works.
He offered to take the stranger to a local bank to deposit the money until a person could be found in which to give the money, but the man said he had a fl ight to catch later in the day.
The bottom line was then reached — the man needed some “trust” to the tune of $6,000.
“I informed him I did not have my checkbook,” he said, but the persis-tent trick artists said a counter check would work fi ne.
The man left to get the money at the bank, but fortunately in this case, he never returned to the scene of the sometimes successful crime.
Dance said the best option is to contact the police.
“I read where the last pigeon drop got $900,” added the man. “I thought I’d share my story as they were going for $6,000 with me.”

as having black eyes, feet, and bills, but their feath-ers may be pure white, buffy, tan, or gray instead of green or some other “normal” color.
“Either way, it is still very, very, rare to see a white feathered hum-mingbird,” added Poind-exter. “I think it is a pretty cool thing and it is excit-ing to know.”
Poindexter said the
genetic mutation for a hummingbird isn’t for
them to be white in color, but it does sometimes oc-cur.
“I have seen pictures of them, both of the Albino and the Leucistic, but I have never seen one in real life and I think it was a smart idea for them [Stanfi eld’s] to take some pictures and enjoy the rare moment with the bird,” said Poindexter.
Only about a dozen
albino or leucistic hum-mingbirds have been banded (or trapped by a professional bander), and none of them are known to have returned in a fol-lowing year after migrat-ing to Mexico or Central America for the winter.
Therefore, seeing one of these birds and getting pictures and/or video of them continues to be a rare event, but one that the Stanfi eld’s was able to capture and enjoy.

JACKSON — Missis-sippi tax collections were higher than expected for the fi rst two months of the state budget year, but a top lawmaker said Fri-day that it’s too early to know whether the good numbers indicate steady improvement in the state
economy.“I hope we can sustain
it,” House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplar-ville, said of the growth. “It takes you four, fi ve or six months to see a trend.”
According to the state Department of Revenue, tax collections for July and August, combined, were 4.3 percent higher
than lawmakers estimat-ed. That translates into an extra $26.9 million.
If collections remain strong, lawmakers are likely to use the extra money next spring to fi ll holes in the budget for fi s-cal 2014, which ends June 30.
Frierson said, for ex-ample, that he expects the Department of Correc-
tions to request $20 mil-lion to $22 million to get through the year.
The Department of Revenue fi gures are bro-ken into several catego-ries, including sales taxes, individual and corporate income taxes, liquor taxes and beer and wine taxes.
Sales tax collections were 5.1 percent stronger than anticipated for July
and August, though Fri-erson said he didn’t know whether that was driven by back-to-school pur-chases or other types of shopping.
Liquor tax collections were 3.2 percent higher than expected for the two months, while beer and wine tax collections fell 3.2 percent short of pre-dictions.

When special interest groups are struggling to avoid a tax hike, one of the tried and true methods is to call for a study that will buy time and essentially kick the issue down the road.
Business groups calling for an effi ciency study of the Mis-sissippi Department of Trans-portation prior to facing up to
the undeniable reality that Mississippi doesn’t have a credible funding source to repair the state’s existing roads and bridges – which are deteriorating signifi cantly – are in essence kicking a diffi cult discussion of restructuring the state’s road and bridge fi nance system down a decaying road and off a substandard bridge.
What is most interesting in the debate over fi nding a new and better way to pay for road and bridge repair and construction in Missis-sippi is the fact that you have a staunch white Republican in Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall singing from the very same political hymnal as a liberal black Democrat in Senate Transportation Commit-tee Chairman Willie Simmons, D-Cleveland.
Simmons has proposed a $700 million tax package and challenged members of a study committee examining road needs to offer their own alternative revenue and spending plans. MDOT offi cials, most vocally Hall, say the state needs hundreds of millions of dollars a year to repair existing roads and bridges and construct new ones.
Hall stood last month under the Found-er’s Square Pavilion at the Neshoba County Fair repeating his call for an increase in the state’s gasoline tax for the second year in a row. Again, Hall pointed out that the state’s anemic gas tax was outdated and had to be updated. Hall worked hard during the 2013 Mississippi legislative session to advance two bills that would have created new revenue for the construction and maintenance of Missis-sippi’s roads and highways until they died in committee.
In round numbers, Hall said told fairgoers Mississippi has about 4,700 miles of highways in dire need of repair at an estimated current cost of $960 million.
Yet one of the biggest public policy and eco-nomic misconceptions in Mississippi is the notion that as gas prices have risen, state gas tax revenues have risen with them. That’s just not the case. Mississippi’s 18.4 cents per gal-lon gas tax (CPG) is a fl at tax. When we paid $1 a gallon for gas, the tax was 18.4 CPG.
When we pay $3.75 per gallon at the pump, the state tax is still 18.4 CPG. The only way the state takes in more revenue in gas taxes is for the volume of gas consumed to increase.
The state’s 18.4 CPG gas tax was last raised in 1987. According to a report by the American Society of Civil Engineers, Mississippi’s fl at gas tax isn’t keeping pace with the infl ation of rising highway construction and maintenance costs and with the modern fuel economy im-provements in today’s vehicles.
Notice that Hall, the Republican, identifi ed a higher level of revenue need than did Sim-mons, the Democrat. So the Mississippi State Senate task force examining the state trans-portation needs in preparation for a 2014 re-port will be hard pressed to blame calls for a tax hike for road and bridge fi nance a partisan issue.
The fact is that many of the groups calling for stalling tactics on a serious discussion of higher gas taxes represent industries that are most responsible for road and bridge deterio-ration. And MDOT, after several years of run-ning roughshod over legislators, is now seeing some political chickens come home to roost in terms of renewed oversight.
The special interest groups are smart enough to recognize that. But the notion that the state needs more study of our outdated fl at gas tax or of the massive need for road and bridge repair and construction statewide ig-nores what a 100-mile drive in any direction will readily demonstrate.

A verse to share
Wednesday, John Kerry told the Senate not to worry about the cost of an Ameri-can war on Syria.
The Saudis and Gulf Ar-abs, cash-fat on the $110-a-barrel oil they sell U.S. con-sumers, will pick up the tab for the Tomahawk missiles.
Has it come to this -- U.S. soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen as the merce-naries of sheiks, sultans and emirs, Hessians of the New World Order, hired out to do the big-time killing for Saudi and Sunni royals?
Thursday, too, came a stunning report in the Washington Post.
The Conference of Presi-dents of Major American Jewish Organizations has joined the Israeli lobby AIPAC in an all-out public campaign for a U.S. war on Syria
Marvin Hier of the Si-mon Wiesenthal Center and Abe Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League have invoked the Holocaust, with Hier charging the U.S. and Britain failed to rescue the Jews in 1942.
Yet, if memory serves, in ‘42 the Brits were bat-tling Rommel in the desert and the Americans were still collecting their dead at Pearl Harbor and dying on Bataan and Corregidor.
The Republican Jewish Coalition, too, bankrolled by Sheldon Adelson, the
Macau casino mogul whose s o l i c i t u d e for the suf-fering chil-dren of Syria is the stuff of legend, is also backing Obama’s war.
A d e l s o n , who shelled
out $70 million to bring down Barack, wants his pay-off -- war on Syria. And he is getting it. Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor have sa-luted and enlisted. Sheldon, fattest of all fat cats, is buy-ing himself a war.
Yet, is it really wise for Jewish organizations to put a Jewish stamp on a cam-paign to drag America into another war that a majority of their countrymen do not want to fi ght?
Moreover, this war has debacle written all over it. Should it come, a divided nation will be lead by a dif-fi dent and dithering com-mander in chief who makes Adlai Stevenson look like Stonewall Jackson.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Martin Dempsey is having trouble even defi ning the mission. While Obama says it will be an in-and-out strike of hours, a “shot across the bow,” John McCain says the Senate resolution autho-
rizes robust strikes, lethal aid to the rebels and a cam-paign to bring down Bashar Assad.
If the Republican Party backs this war, it will own this war.
And U.S. involvement will last not for days, but for the duration.
If the rebels then lose, we lose. And if the rebels win, who wins?
Is it the same jihadists who just shelled that Chris-tian village and terrorized that convent of Christian nuns?
Is it the same rebels seen on the front page of Thursday’s New York Times about to execute, Einsatzgruppen-style, cap-tive Syrian soldiers, forget-ting only to have the victims of their war crime dig their own graves fi rst?
Does the U.S. Jewish community really want to be responsible for starting a war that ends with two mil-lion Christian Syrians fac-ing a fate not unlike that of Poland’s Jews?
About the debate on this war, there is an aspect of the absurd.
We are told we must pun-ish Assad for killing Syr-ians with gas, but we do not want Assad’s regime to fall. Which raises a question: How many Syrians must we kill with missiles to teach Assad he cannot kill any
more Syrians with gas? Ar-tillery, fi ne. Just no gas.
Iran and Russia agree chemical weapons were used. Vladimir Putin has said Russia will back mili-tary action against those who did it.
The Russians have put out a 100-page document tracing the March use of chemical weapons to the rebels. The Turks report-edly intercepted small amounts of sarin going to the rebels. We claim solid proof that Assad’s regime authorized and used chemi-cal weapons.
Why not tell the Russians to meet us in the Security Council where we will prove our “slam-dunk” case.
If we can, and do, we will have far greater support for collective sanctions or ac-tion than we do now.
But the idea of launch-ing missiles based on evi-dence we will not reveal about Syria’s use of chemi-cal weapons, strikes that will advance the cause of the al-Qaida terrorists who killed 3,000 of us and are anxious to kill more, would be an act of such paralyzing stupidity one cannot believe that even this crowd would consciously commit it.

America: Just whose war is this?
Before Attorney Gen-eral Eric Holder and the Justice Department move forward with a lawsuit to block vouchers for thou-sands of low-income stu-dents trapped in failing Louisiana public schools, he ought to speak to parents whose children benefi t from the statewide voucher mea-sured called the Louisiana Scholarship Program.
One of those parents is Lakisha Fuselier. Fuselier is a single mother of four. Her 8-year-old son, Albert, is a part of the voucher pro-gram. A spokeswoman in Gov. Bobby Jindal’s offi ce emailed me her story, which fi rst appeared in The Daily Advertiser last December. “Lakisha Fuselier wanted to do something to help her son, Albert. He was strug-gling in public school class-es,” the Daily Advertiser writes. “His academic prob-lems were compounded by a diagnosis of attention def-icit hyperactivity disorder. ... She knew he needed indi-vidual attention, something he was not getting in public school.”
In response to my re-quest, Ms. Fuselier provid-ed the following statement
to the gov-ernor’s of-fi ce: “When I heard about this program, I jumped on the chance to try some-thing new for my son. I see the dif-
ference it has made in him from an academic stand-point and as an individual. He loves school now and is more outgoing. I hope to be able to get my other kids in the program because I know that it works.”
Attorney General Hold-er’s stated reason for suing to eliminate the voucher program in Louisiana is that it “impedes the de-segregation process.” The government argues that al-lowing parents to transfer their children out of failing Louisiana schools would upset the racial balance of schools in districts still un-der federal desegregation orders. “There’s no deny-ing the state’s racist history of school segregation or its ugly efforts ... to undermine desegregation orders...,” writes the Washington
Post. “...But the situation today bears no resemblance to those terrible days. Since most of the students using vouchers are black, it is, as State Education Superin-tendent John White point-ed out ... ‘a little ridiculous’ to argue that the departure of mostly black students to voucher schools would make their home school systems less white.”
In a recent appearance on “Meet the Press,” Gov. Jindal said, “There are too many kids in this country to-day trapped in poor neigh-borhoods with poor, failing schools. In Louisiana, we’re doing something about it.” Is Holder really saying he’d rather they didn’t?
President and Mrs. Obama can provide private schooling for their daugh-ters. The president’s attor-ney general wants to deny the same to Louisianians whose only hope out of pov-erty is a decent education. Is that fair? Is it just?
Next to a right to life, the most important right is a good education. Without it, low-income children are de-nied the American Dream. It is the ultimate civil rights issue.
The racial makeup of a school that fails to provide quality education shouldn’t matter. What difference does it make if a child fails in an all-black school or an integrated one?
According to The Week-ly Standard, more people have applied for vouchers in Louisiana than are avail-able: 10,000 in 2012, with only 5,000 receiving them, and 12,000 this year, with 8,000 awarded by lottery.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan tried to end the school choice program in D.C., but reversed him-self in the face of a public outcry. Minority parents should amplify that outcry across the country.
If Republicans are smart, they will make school choice their issue and reclaim their history of being for civil rights before the Democrats commandeered it.
In a cruel reversal of what happened in the 1960s, Democrats now appear to stand in the schoolhouse door, trying to keep poor children out.

Dive signals more treasure at wreck
BOSTON — Fog was swallowing his ship’s bow, the winds were picking up and under-sea explorer Barry Clif-ford figured he needed to leave within an hour to beat the weather back to port.
It was time enough, he decided, for a final dive of the season over the wreck of the trea-sure-laden pirate ship, Whydah, off Cape Cod.
That Sept. 1 dive at a spot Clifford had never explored before uncovered proof that a staggering amount of undiscovered riches — as many as 400,000 coins — might be found there.
Instead of packing up for the year, Clifford is planning another trip to the Whydah, the only au-thenticated pirate ship wreck in U.S. waters.
“I can hardly wait,” he said.
The Whydah was built as a slave ship in 1716 and captured in February 1717 by pirate captain “Black Sam” Bellamy. Just two months later, it sank in a ferocious storm a quarter mile off Well-fleet, Mass., killing Bel-lamy and all but two of the 145 other men on board and taking down the plunder from 50 vessels Bellamy raided.
Clifford located the Whydah site in 1984 and has since docu-mented 200,000 arti-facts, including gold, guns and even the leg of a young boy who took up with the crew. He only recently got indica-
tions there may be far more coins than the roughly 12,000 he’s al-ready documented.
Just before his death in April, the Whydah project’s late historian, Ken Kinkor, uncovered a Colonial-era document indicating that in the weeks before the Whyd-ah sank, Bellamy raided two vessels bound for Jamaica. “It is said that in those vessels were 400,000 pieces of 8/8,” it read.
What is chemicalweapons ‘red line’?
The ghastly images reveal rows of the dead, many of them children, wrapped in white burial shrouds, and survivors gasping for air, their bodies twitching, foam oozing from mouths.
This was unlike any other scene in Syria’s brutal civil war, where bombs and bullets have killed and maimed tens of thousands over the past 2½ years.
The Aug. 21 attack on the rebel-held suburbs of Damascus was car-ried out, the U.S. says, with chemical weapons. It crossed what Presi-dent Barack Obama calls a “red line” and, he says, demands a mil-itary response against the government of Syr-ian President Bashar Assad.
But in a war where only a fraction of more than 100,000 Syr-ian deaths have come from poison gas — the Obama administration says more than 1,400 died in the attack — what is it about chemi-cal weapons that set them apart in policy and
perception?Some experts say
chemical weapons belong in a special cat-egory. They point to the moral and legal taboos that date to World War I, when the gassing of thousands of soldiers led to a worldwide treaty banning the use of these weapons. The experts also say these chemicals are not just repugnant but pose na-tional security risks.
First lady: Anti-fateffort changes ways
WASHINGTON — Mi-chelle Obama said Fri-day that her anti-child-hood obesity campaign is creating a “cultural shift” in how Ameri-cans live and eat, and is beginning to have a positive influence on children’s health.
As an example, she cited something she said she couldn’t imag-ine when the “Let’s Move” program was launched nearly four years ago: television commercials pitching fast-food breakfast sandwiches made with healthier egg whites in-stead of whole eggs.
But the first lady said more work is needed to solve the childhood obesity problem.
“Make no mistake about it, we are chang-ing the conversation in this country,” Mrs. Obama said at a back-to-school event at a District of Columbia elementary school. “We are creating a cultural shift in how we live and eat and our efforts are beginning to have a real impact on our children’s lives.”

Schools set religious expression policies
OXFORD — Oxford and Lafayette County schools have adopted policies to ensure students’ free-dom of religious expres-sion, as required by a new state law.
The Oxford Eagle re-ports that such expres-sion had not previously been in jeopardy. But the Mississippi law mandates that all local school boards adopt poli-cies.
The four-page plan adopted by the Lafayette County School District on Thursday was borrowed from the state’s recom-mended policy. It offers details on all students’ freedom to speak and share their religious view-points at school.
The policy says a student cannot face dis-crimination for submit-ting religious content in homework, artwork and other written and oral assignments. Students may submit a prayer instead of a poem when required as a class as-signment. The policy also says students may organize prayer groups and the groups must be given the same access to facilities for assem-bling as any other group.
2 killed when truckrolls away, hits vehicle
TUPELO — Authorities have released the names of a woman and her young daughter who were killed Friday in Tupelo while sitting in a vehicle that was struck by a run-away tractor-trailer.
Lee County coroner Carolyn Green says
20-year-old Olidia Acosta and 2-year-old Vianett Castillo were in a parking lot outside an auto insur-ance office when the incident happened.
Authorities say af-ter the driver of the 18-wheeler got out to make a delivery, the rig rolled away and crushed the vehicle in which Acosta and her daughter were sitting.
The incident remains under investigation. The truck driver’s name was not immediately re-leased.
Crossings will staynoisy in Tupelo
TUPELO — A proposed quiet zone policy for rail-road crossings in Tupelo is not likely to develop in the near future because of costs involved with the project.
WTVA reported the City Council has been in seri-ous discussions since May about design solu-tions to reduce noise at Tupelo’s 24 railroad crossings.
The estimated cost of designing a proposal — $138,000 — would give city officials an idea of how much it would cost to upgrade each railroad crossing.
Concerned about the cost of taking the con-cept to completion, the council has tabled the matter for future discus-sion. It had been on the council agenda for its meeting this past week.
Councilman Jim Newell says a national hotel chain may be considering a downtown Tupelo loca-tion, but the noise from trains could be a factor in whether a decision is made to go proceed.
Newell said he and other council members remain on the fence about the issue.
He said Tupelo Mayor Jason Shelton wants to look at alternative fund-ing sources before going ahead with the design proposal.
Gloster aldermen raise taxes, fees
GLOSTER — Faced with the loss of tax rev-enue from the burned Georgia-Pacific plywood mill, aldermen have voted to raise taxes and utility fees and cut em-ployee hours.
The Enterprise-Journal reports the tax levy will rise from 33 to 36 mills. That will mean an increase in annual prop-erty taxes of roughly $15 on a $50,000 house and $30 on a house valued at $100,000 house.
The budget approved this past week allocates $644,580 for the gen-eral fund, $294,360 for the water and sewer fund, $162,000 for the natural gas fund, and $7,400 for the fire pro-tection fund.
The budget also in-cludes a $2.6 million Community Development Block Grant dedicated to development of a wood pellet mill.
It does not provide funding for employee pay raises or overtime pay.
One reason for the millage increase is the projected loss of prop-erty taxes from the Geor-gia-Pacific plywood plant, which burned last year.
The town is engaged in litigation with Georgia-Pacific over responsibility for the fire and cleanup of the site.

Mayor wants aides to live in town
MCCOMB — Mayor Whitney Rawlings said he wants city department heads to live inside the McComb city limits, a stance that could narrow the field of candidates as the city searches for police and fire chiefs.
The police and fire departments are in the hands of interim leaders. Police Chief Greg Martin and Fire Chief B.J. Net-tles both retired Aug. 31.
Deputy Chief Stephen Adams has been named interim fire chief until while Deputy Police Chief Scott McKenzie is serv-ing as interim police chief.
Both live outside city limits, as do most Mc-Comb police officers and firefighters.
Rawlings’ position would mean the interim chiefs and others in the departments wouldn’t be eligible for the jobs if an ordinance requiring resi-dency is enacted by the Board of Selectmen. The current ordinance has no requirement.
“When this ordinance was put in place, I don’t think that they perceived that 30 years later, al-most the entire police and fire department
would live outside of Mc-Comb,” Rawlings said. “I think they were trying to include a few candi-dates, but now it’s the whole department.”
Rawlings said he wants to amend the ordi-nance that sets residen-cy requirements for city officials. As it stands, all city employees must live within an 18-mile radius of McComb but cannot live in Louisiana.
3-year-old dies;was found in vehicle
HATTIESBURG — The Forrest County sheriff is investigating the death of a 3-year-old boy who was found in a hot vehicle.
Coroner Butch Bene-dict tells the Hattiesburg American that Cameron Shaw likely overheated in the vehicle parked at a home by U.S. Highway 49 near the Stone Coun-ty and Forrest County line.
Benedict says first responders couldn’t find a pulse before taking the child to Stone County Hospital in Wiggins, where he died.
Forrest County Sheriff Billy McGee says the death was an accident, but investigators are try-ing to determine whether to bring charges against the mother. He says her
account of what hap-pened left lingering ques-tions and authorities were waiting for results of a drug test.
Clarke has 3rd fire fatality in 3 weeks
QUITMAN — Investiga-tors are still trying to identify a woman who was killed in a house fire early Friday in east Mis-sissippi.
Clarke County Coroner Greg Fairchild tells The Associated Press on Saturday that authorities don’t have a positive identification of the body found in the rubble.
It was Clarke County’s third fire death in three weeks.
The home was owned by a 60-year-old woman. It was in the Matherville community in south Clarke County, near the Wayne County line.
Sheriff Todd Kemp says he didn’t imme-diately know whether the home had smoke alarms. It was engulfed in flames when firefight-ers arrived about 6:30 a.m. Friday. A neighbor reported the fire.
Two pedestrians killed on highway
OCEAN SPRINGS — Authorities say a man
and a young boy were killed Friday night when they were trying to walk across a south Missis-sippi highway and were struck by a sport utility vehicle.
Mississippi Highway Patrol Cpl. Jason Gazzo says 43-year-old said Jeffrey Dogget and 4-year-old Brandon Cam-po were trying to cross state Highway 609 near St. Martin at about 9 p.m., when they were hit by a 2006 GMC Yukon.
The man and the boy, both from Ocean Springs, died at the scene. Gazzo says they were not related.
Gazzo says a pre-liminary investigation showed alcohol was not a factor in the crash. The driver’s name was not released.
Parish opposesdam proposal
COVINGTON, La. — A plan to dam the Pearl River in Jackson, Miss., to alleviate flooding and create a lake there has drawn opposition from the St. Tammany Parish government and environ-mental leaders, who fear the project would dam-age Louisiana wetlands and threaten marine life.
The Times-Picayune re-ported the St. Tammany
Parish Council on Thurs-day passed a resolution opposing the project and will seek a meeting with the Army Corps of Engineers about the pro-posal.
The resolution said the Rankin-Hinds Flood Con-trol District and the Pearl River Vision Foundation are considering con-struction of a dam and creating a 1,500-acre lake on the Pearl River in Jackson.
The reduced water flow could eliminate 1,500 acres of wetland and more than 1,500 acres of forest in Louisiana, adversely impact the swamp tour industry and possibly jeopardize three endangered species of wildlife. It would also af-fect the salinity levels in the Mississippi Sound and cause problems for the oyster populations in Louisiana and Mississip-pi, the resolution said.
Andrew Whitehurst of the Gulf Restoration Net-work said the plan, which would control flooding but also create develop-ment opportunities along a lake, would dredge and widen the Pearl River in Jackson from its cur-rent width of 250 feet to 1,500 feet. The lake and a cross-channel weir, or low-head dam, would be near the Interstate 20 Pearl River Bridge, he said.
Brookhaven OKstigher budget
BROOKHAVEN — Some programs and positions have been eliminated in a trimmed-down budget for 2013-2014 fiscal year in Brookhaven.
The Daily Leader re-ports reports the budget was approved by the Board of Aldermen this past week.
It projects expendi-tures of about $12.8 million in the fiscal year
that begins Oct. 1, down from the $13.5 million budget of the previous year.
In the new budget, salaries of city employ-ees and the aldermen are frozen. More than 50 percent of the city bud-get consists of salaries and insurance.
New items in the budget include $5,000 for recycling initiatives and $50,000 that is set aside for future parks among other things.
Services that con-sumed a chunk of last year’s budget are not in the one approved for 2013-2014, helping the city cut back on spend-ing.
Construction beginsat long-delayed park
NETTLETON — Con-struction has begun on a long-delayed children’s park at a 2.5-acre site donated by a local resi-dent.
Doris Causey — who gave Nettleton the land four years ago — told WTVA she lived at the site with her family for more than four decades.
“I can’t wait,” Causey said. “It’s prayers an-swered.”
Progress on converting the site into a park has been on hold for sev-eral years because of a shortage of funding.
Causey has worked with city leaders to se-cure grants to help build the park, and has got-ten some help from her neighbors.
“The community itself is very supportive of it,” Mayor Jimmy Taylor said. “It has just been awfully difficult to actually get anything started.”
Site work has started and is expected to be completed in about two weeks. All that is needed to complete the park is money for playground equipment.

Twisted Spirits ribbon cutting Twisted Spirits owner Ray Patel and friends, family and employees join Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin for a rib-bon cutting ceremony on Aug. 23. Also on hand were other city officials, staff members of The Alliance, and other civic and community leaders. The liquor store is located on U.S. 72 West.
Financial experts agree that it is never too early to start teaching children about money. Children who are not taught these lessons pay the consequences for a life-time.
You may want to start by teaching them how to count money. Next, teach the value of saving. Unexpect-ed things come up and it is good to have money saved.
It is important to discuss the dif-ference between a want and a need. What are the basic needs in life? Food, clothing, and shelter.
There are also grey areas like vehicles to pay for. You need a car to get to work to make the money
to pay for the basic needs.
Explain the differ-ence between extrav-agant and moderate. Do you really need an expensive sports car or would a nice economy car serve just as well?
Is a television a need or a want? Most children would say it is a need. Ask the
question: Can you survive without it?
Children need to understand about choices. If they use their
money to purchase one item, then they are eliminating other options.
Give the scenario that they have $10 to spend. They decide to go to the movies. The next day, a friend invites them to go skating. They have already spent their money and cannot go.
That was a choice they made even though they may not have realized it.
They need to be sure when they decide to spend their money it is something they really want or need.

NEW ORLEANS — Hell Yes Fest is a huge factor in the explosion of New Or-leans’ comedy scene.
The fi ve-day festival brings a variety of talent to the city, transforming New Orleans into a tem-porary comedy mecca.
The third annual com-edy invitational, sched-uled Nov. 12-16, already has booked more than 50 acts, including Todd Bar-ry, Sara Schaefer, Sean Patton, Jade Catta-Preta and Nick Rutherford.
Standup isn’t all that
Hell Yes has to offer: the still-growing roster in-cludes a fi ve-day fi lm fes-tival, podcast recordings, sketch and improvised comedy.
Schaefer co-hosts the popular podcast “You Had to Be There” with Nikki Glaser, and the pair’s weekly, late-night talk show on MTV, “Nikki & Sara Live,” premiered early in 2013. Schaefer won two Emmy Awards as the lead blogger for “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.”
Patton, a Slidell na-tive, returns frequently to perform in New Orleans.
His fi rst comedy album, “Standard Operating Pro-cedure,” was released in late 2012. His TV credits include “Live at Gotham,” ‘‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,” ‘‘Conan” and Comedy Central’s “The Half Hour.”
Rutherford and Catta-Preta last performed in New Orleans as part of Moshe Kasher’s show at One Eyed Jacks in April. The duo also hit several local mics, winning over crowds at the Howlin’ Wolf Den, Hi-Ho and Lost Love Lounge.
Finally, comedian Bar-ry, fresh off his second “all crowd work” tour, will perform Nov. 13. Barry’s dry wit and deadpan de-livery make him a favorite of many comedians.
Hell Yes Fest draws tal-ent from New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Austin, Baton Rouge and Hattiesburg, Miss. In addition to the announced headliners, New York-based comedians John F. O’Donnell, Jono Zalay, Scotland Green and Mark Normand are slated to perform. Green and Nor-mand are both natives of New Orleans. Normand opened for Amy Schum-er’s May 2013 shows at the House of Blues.
Representing Los An-geles are comedians Jake
Weisman, Dave Ross, Pat Bishop, Allen Strick-land Williams and Karl Hess. Weisman and Hess also performed at the last year’s festival.
Comics Nick Mullen, Adam Friedland, Sara Ar-mour and Jenn Tisdale, out of Washington, D.C., will be performing at Hell Yes Fest 2013. Mul-len also performed at last year’s festival.
The New Movement has a sister theater in Austin, so it’s no surprise to get a hefty contingent of Texan comedians. So far, Aus-tin-based comics Michael Foulk, Lisa Friedrich, Ka-tie Pengra, Terance Mc-David, Christina Parrish and Ashley Barnhill have been booked.
Comedians Jamie Ar-rington and Brittany Purvis will travel from Hattiesburg, and Baton Rouge’s Howard Hall is also slated to perform.
Several comedians who used to live in New Or-leans are invited to return — Matt Wayman from Denver, Shawn Dugas from New York, and Drew Platt from San Francisco.
Hell Yes Fest 2013 kicks off Nov. 12 with an opening-night party and an all-locals lineup at One Eyed Jacks that shows off the best of New Orleans comedy.

Dear Abby
Horoscopes
And the winners are ...Celebrating the Best of the Best,
the 2013 Daily Corinthian Reader’s Choice Awards special section will be presented
in the Sunday, Sept. 22 newspaper.
Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Wishing you were someone other than who you are is a form of self-rejection that can only hold you back today. It’s better to spend your time working with your strengths and playing to your talents.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). This is the kind of day in which older Taurus people lament the innocent, aimless, meandering youth that’s behind them, while younger ones fantasize about the freedoms of adult life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Wanting to be your best is an admirable desire, and yet there is a point at which constant im-provement may be a form of self-rejection. Take a break from im-proving, and like yourself “as is.”
CANCER (June 22-July 22). There’s a fi ne line between the heavy load that builds your muscles and the one that injures you. Let the good people around you help you out and keep you from taking on too much.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re
not in a mood to conform, but doing one thing that everyone else is doing will put you on a treadmill of social expectation. Remember that this is not a trap. You can step off and do your own thing at any moment.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Just because someone asks you for answers doesn’t mean you have to provide them. In fact, you could be doing someone a dis-service by answering their ques-tion and robbing them of one of life’s mysteries.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The human mind loves a pattern. The fi rst step in a new direction seems illogical to the onlookers and may be met with protest. But keep on the path, and everyone will start to deal with the new pattern.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Everyone has different social tolerances. Some people are likely to speak more candidly in groups, and this may be uncom-fortable. But it’s better than a closed-off environment where no
one grows.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). As disgruntled as you may be in dealing with red tape and bureaucracy, it would be an even bigger ordeal to start your own country. So if you can manage to laugh it off, do so as often as possible.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You need more pleasure in your life. These days your tastes are unpredictable even to you, so be sure to try the different and unlikely options available to you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Maybe you’re just being picky, but when it comes to romantic relationships, you’d like to know the real person and not the per-son that person thinks you want to see.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The answers are not upstairs in the attic of your mind. So don’t even bother climbing up there. The answers are easily observed in the world around you, though you’ll have to slow down to bear witness.
DEAR ABBY: My husband is 99 percent bed-bound with pri-mary progressive MS. My oldest son is bipolar (he’s off his meds and doing great), and my young-est son has Asperger’s. I know ... wow.
My husband refuses to even try to understand the boys. When they have behavior prob-lems, he tells them if he could, he would backhand them. Great parenting, huh? But at the same time, the boys and I are expected to have our lives revolve around his disability and stop everything when he needs help. His MS is always top priority.
I hate watching him go through his disease, but does that give him a free pass to bully our boys? I realize the boys (espe-cially the younger one) have is-sues that are diffi cult to deal with, and I’m not giving them a free pass, either, but I feel like I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. If I support my sons, I’m a bad wife. If I support my husband, I’m a bad mom. And -- not to sound selfi sh -- who sup-ports me?
I’m not really expecting any answers, but needed to vent, for lack of better terminology. I do have a support system of extended family and friends, but sometimes the lack of support inside the house makes me cra-zy. Any words of wisdom, Abby?
-- STRETCHED THIN IN COLO-
RADO
D E A R
STRETCHED
THIN: You have a right to vent. You’re carry-ing an enor-mous load on your shoul-ders right now. I wish you wouldn’t label yourself
as a “bad” anything because you are just a mortal woman who is trying to cope. Your husband is understandably bitter and frus-trated and sometimes takes it out on those closest to him -- you and the boys. His MS is top pri-ority because he’s incapacitated and it has to be.
Your boys need to understand the importance of not stressing out their father. I’m glad your old-er son is doing well off medica-tion, if that’s OK with his doctor. But it’s my understanding that people with a chemical imbal-ance need to stay on their meds to maintain their equilibrium. As to your younger son, people with Asperger’s may have problems with their social interactions, but they can be taught rules of ac-ceptable behavior. Perhaps it’s time to work a little harder on that.
As to your own needs, believe me, I sympathize. If you need to
vent, it’s important for your san-ity that you be able to do so. It’s wonderful that you have extend-ed family and friends to support you, but if at all possible, fi nd someone who can offer a respite from your caregiving responsibili-ties every few weeks.
DEAR ABBY: My sister and I have settled my mother’s es-tate except for one item: Mom’s cookbooks. In particular, one book that Mom used regularly and in which she modifi ed reci-pes. My mother was a phenom-enal cook, and this book is a real bone of contention for us all. What should I do? -- LOST FOR
WORDS
DEAR LOST FOR WORDS: One person can volunteer to be the “family cooks’ librarian” and if anyone wants to prepare a modi-fi ed recipe, the librarian could scan it or photocopy it and send it.
Or, all of the modifi ed recipes could be photocopied at once and distributed to family mem-bers who would like to have them. The task shouldn’t be onerous because I doubt your mother modifi ed every recipe in the book.
(Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

STARKVILLE — Dak Prescott spent the second half of his debut as Mississippi State’s starting quarterback standing on the sidelines, giv-ing out high-fi ves and laugh-ing with teammates.
He was so good during the fi rst half, he wasn’t needed on the fi eld.
The sophomore threw for 174 yards and two touch-downs and ran for a touch-down as the Bulldogs built a huge halftime and breezed past Alcorn State 51-7 on Sat-urday afternoon.
“We got in a rhythm, we were comfortable and every-body did a good job,” Prescott said. “Everybody did their
1/11th out there.”Mississippi State (1-1)
didn’t use several regular starters, including quarter-back Tyler Russell, who suf-fered a concussion in the Bulldogs’ season-opening loss to Oklahoma State.
It didn’t matter. The Bull-dogs led 21-0 by early in the second quarter and 37-0 by halftime. It was the most points in the fi rst half for the program since 1996.
The 6-foot-2, 230-pound Prescott has the reputation as an effective runner but in-consistent passer. He looked more than capable against the Braves, completing 12 of 19 passes, including a perfect 14-yard strike to Derrick Mil-
ton in the front corner of the end zone for his fi rst passing touchdown of the season.
Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said Prescott did everything he was asked. Prescott played in 12 of 13 games last season as a back-up.
Mullen said he hopes Rus-sell can return for the Bull-dogs’ fi rst Southeastern Con-ference game next weekend against Auburn, but Prescott looked comfortable leading the offense in his absence.
“He made some good reads, managed the offense well, made plays when we needed him to make them and I’m proud of that,” Mullen said.

Ashton Shumpert rushed for 98 yards and two touch-downs. Nick Griffi n added 53 yards on the ground and a touchdown.
Alcorn State (1-1), which plays in the Football Cham-pionship Subdivision, had two fi rst downs on its fi rst drive but didn’t get another one until the fourth quarter. The Braves scored their only touchdown on a 25-yard pass from John Gibbs Jr. to Tollete George.
Mississippi State was ob-viously much more talented than the Braves, but the steady stream of offense was still encouraging for the Bull-

ATHENS, Ga. — So much for Aaron Murray’s reputa-tion as a quarterback who can’t win the big game.
The senior took care of that with one of the best perfor-mances of his career.
Murray threw for 309 yards and four touchdowns, Geor-gia’s beleaguered defense fi nally came up with a stop, and the 11th-ranked Bulldogs defeated No. 6 South Carolina 41-30 on Saturday for an early edge in the Southeastern Con-ference East.
Coming off a 38-35 loss at Clemson, Georgia could not afford another defeat if it wanted to remain a serious contender for a national title.
Murray capped his stellar day for the Bulldogs (1-1, 1-0 SEC) by slipping away from
South Carolina star Jadeveon Clowney and connecting with Justin Scott-Wesley on an 85-yard touchdown pass with 13 minutes remaining.
“It was a lot of fun,” said Murray, who came in with a 1-6 record against Top 10 opponents. “It’s defi nitely up there.”
The defense made sure it stood up, stuffi ng Mike Davis on fourth-and-goal from in-side the 1. Murray and the of-fense took it from there, run-ning off the remaining 8:28.
“That was by far my favorite part of the game,” coach Mark Richt said of the fi nal posses-sion.
Davis led the Gamecocks (1-1, 0-1) with 149 yards rushing. Connor Shaw passed for 228 yards and two touchdowns, ran for 75 yards, but also lost
a crucial fumble in the third quarter in Georgia territory.
That said, this loss was on the Clowney and the defense. They simply couldn’t stop Murray.
“Aaron played a pretty good game,” said Clowney, who had a lackluster opening game and was largely shut down again, held to three tackles and one sack. “He threw it quick and ran it away from me the whole game.”
Georgia snapped a three-year losing streak against the Gamecocks, seizing control of the SEC East though South Carolina still has a chance to get back in the race, thanks to a more favorable schedule. In fact, the Bulldogs won the division the last two years de-spite losing to their neighbor-ing rival.
Todd Gurley had another huge day for the Bulldogs on the ground, rushing for 136 yards on 30 bruising carries and scoring two touchdowns. His fi rst came on a 2-yard run in a wild fi rst half, which ended with the teams tied at 24. Then, in the fi nal seconds of the third quarter, he hauled in an 8-yard TD pass from Murray to give Georgia a 34-24 lead, running the wrong route but getting open when Murray motioned him where to go.
Davis ended the third with a 75-yard run down the side-line, and scored on a 3-yard run early in the fourth to make it 34-30. South Carolina missed the extra point.

OXFORD — Quarterbacks Bo Wallace and Barry Bru-netti directed Mississippi to a 31-point outburst in a 20-minute span in the fi rst half to highlight a win over FCS member Southeast Mis-souri 31-13.
The Rebels (2-0) scored on fi ve consecutive series in the decisive surge, highlighted by touchdown passes of 64 and 67 yards from Wallace to Evan Engram and Donte Moncrief, respectively. Wallace was 8 of 15 for 188 yards and did not play in the second half.
Brunetti scored a 4-yard
touchdown run and had a game-high 111 yards on 18 carries.
Ole Miss accounted for 532 yards in total offense, includ-ing a 10-yard touchdown run from I’Tavious Mathers and a 37-yard fi eld goal from An-drew Ritter.
Southeast Missouri (0-2) of the Ohio Valley Conference, was led by Scott Lathorp, who threw touchdown passes of 14 and 16 yards to D.J. Foster and Spencer Davis, respec-tively. Lathrop fi nished 16 of 24 for 159 yards.
The Ole Miss win, its fourth straight dating back to last
season, came before 60,815 in the only home appearance for the Rebels in the opening fi ve games.
Ole Miss needed a touch-down run in the fi nal 90 sec-onds to win their SEC and season opener at Vanderbilt. This time, the Rebels were never seriously threatened, dominating a 20-minute pe-riod that spanned the fi rst and second periods.
During the scoring surge, the Ole Miss defense, led by linebacker Serderius Bryant with15 tackles, forced three punts, a Southeast Missouri fumble and turned the Red-
hawks over on downs.Southeast Missouri made
a brief fl urry in the third pe-riod on Lathrop’s two touch-down passes. Foster led the Redhawks with six receptions for 53 yards. Southeast Mis-souri forced three Ole Miss turnovers, including a pair of fumbles by Brunetti, to keep the score from getting out of hand.
The Redhawks are 0-5 against Southeastern Con-ference foes, losing twice to Arkansas and Missouri. Southeast Missouri has been outscored 178-23 in those meetings.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Indiana State was pain-fully close to pulling off a huge win against an FBS team.
The Sycamores just made a huge mistake at the wrong time.
Ricardo Allen’s inter-ception with 19 seconds remaining preserved Pur-due’s 20-14 win over In-diana State on Saturday afternoon.
Indiana State (0-2) reached the Purdue 36-yard line in the fi nal min-ute before Allen stepped in front of Mike Perish’s pass and gave Darrell Ha-zell his fi rst win as Pur-due’s coach.
Perish passed for 284 yards and two touch-downs for Indiana State, a FCS program that lost to Indiana 73-35 the previ-ous week. The Sycamores were disappointed with the loss, but hopeful after putting together a much better effort. Indiana

BULLDOGS
CONTINUED FROM 10A
dogs after an ugly 21-3 loss to Oklaho-ma State last weekend.
Prescott showed his poise early in the fi rst quarter by converting two straight passes on 4th and 9 for a fi rst down.
The fi rst was an 18-yard strike to Joe Morrow, but it was disallowed after offi cials ruled Alcorn State had called timeout. A sold out Davis Wade Sta-dium groaned, but Prescott came right back and hit Malcolm Johnson for a 23-yard gain.
“The fi rst one just showed me I could do it,” Prescott said. “So I just relaxed, we called a different play and I did it again.”
Two plays later, Prescott showed his running ability, bursting through the line for an 11-yard touchdown run and a 7-0 lead. The rout was just begin-ning.
Mississippi State outgained Alcorn State 308-30 in total yards in the fi rst half. The Bulldogs fi nished with a 556-163 advantage.
The second half started just as lop-sided. Brandon Holloway ran the kick-off back 95 yards to Alcorn’s 1-yard line, and Mississippi State scored two plays later on Shumpert’s fi rst touch-down run for a 44-0 lead with 13:57 left in the third quarter.
Mississippi State freshman Damian Williams made his college debut in the second half, completing 5 of 8 passes for 69 yards and an interception.
Alcorn State’s George fi nished with four catches for 80 yards and the Braves’ only touchdown. Gibbs was 11 of 25 passing for 135 yards, one touch-down and one interception.
“We made some mistakes early,” Alcorn State coach Jay Hopson said. “We turned the ball over on offense. We have got to start protecting the football on offense. We can’t give them anything cheap.”
PURDUE
CONTINUED FROM 10A
State outgained Purdue 295 yards to 284.
Akeem Hunt returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown and ran for 82 yards on 22 carries for the Boilermak-ers (1-1).
Indiana State played without run-ning back Shakir Bell, who ran for 113 yards in the opener before leaving with a bruised shoulder. The Sycamores ran for just 39 yards on 22 carries against Purdue. Still, their ability to move the ball without Bell left them feeling good about their potential.
The Boilermakers returned the open-ing kickoff for a touchdown. B.J. Knauf fi elded the ball at the 2-yard line, then handed off to Hunt, who ran up the left sideline for the remaining 90 yards for the score 14 seconds into the game.
Purdue tried to keep the momentum going, but Hunt was stopped for no gain on a fourth-and-1 from the Boil-ermakers’ 41.
and-13 from its own 15, offensive coordinator Mike Bobo sent in a play the team had not worked on all week.
“That wasn’t in the playbook,” Murray said. “I was like, ‘I hope everyone knows what this play is.”
Murray scrambled away from Clowney with a bit of an assist from backup left tackle Mark Beard, who took over after Ke-narious Gates went out with an ankle injury. Beard was beaten inside but gave Clowney enough of a shove to allow Murray to sprint away. It was easy from there. Scott-Wesley was all alone behind the secondary, hauled in the pass and was gone, the Gamecocks having no chance of chasing down a state high school track champion.
“I think today I showed I’m a wide receiver fi rst,” Scott-Wes-ley said with a smile.
The Gamecocks weren’t done. Davis nearly powered into the end zone before he was stopped a couple of inches short. South Carolina had to go for it on fourth down, and coach Steve Spur-rier called a quick pitch to Davis out of the shotgun.
Amarlo Herrara led a swarm of tacklers that stopped Davis short of the end zone and pushed him back.
“I didn’t even know it was fourth down,” Herrara said. “I just heard everybody cheering and fi gured it was good.”
The teams combined for 990 yards — Georgia had 536 — in a game that sparked such passion, a couple of South Carolina coaches got into it with each other on the sideline early in the third quarter. They had to be pulled apart by another assistant.
“It was pretty obvious that Georgia was the stronger of the two teams out there,” Spurrier said. “They kicked our tails up and down the fi eld.”
After South Carolina grabbed a 3-0 lead, the Gamecocks ran only three offensive plays in nearly 13 minutes.
Murray threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Arthur Lynch, and Georgia caught the Gamecocks napping on the ensuing kickoff. Collin Barber dribbled an onside kick that was recovered easily by Blake Sailors. The Bulldogs drove from there for Patrick Be-less’ 22-yard fi eld goal.
South Carolina went three-and-out, and Murray extended Georgia’s lead to 17-3 with a 6-yard touchdown pass to Keith Marshall swinging out of the backfi eld.
The Gamecocks rallied. Brandon Wilds’ scored on a 7-yard run, and South Carolina tied it on the fi rst of Shaw two touch-down passes to Nick Jones, an 18-yarder set up by Barber’s fumbled snap on an attempted punt.
The teams traded touchdowns in the fi nal 1:42 of the half, Gurley powering in from the 2 and South Carolina evening the score again on Shaw’s 30-yard TD pass to Jones with just 13 seconds remaining.

History2B • Daily Corinthian Sunday, September 8, 2013
There is an old story about a group of people viewing an event of some sort, and afterwards, when asked to describe what they saw, each per-son describes a differ-ent scene. Keep in mind,
each per-son was an “eye-witness,” but they all came away with a separate image.
I come across this quite of-ten in my
research as participants of a particular battle, even the same small part of a particular battle, cannot agree on what actually happened. It makes my job challenging at times.
Take the Battle of Corinth. Over the two days of fi ghting there were 860 men killed here in town. Out of all of those men the one death which was witnessed by the most people was that of Colonel William Peleg Rogers of the 2nd Texas Infantry. He died while personally leading the at-tack against the little fort called Battery Robinett.
And no two stories of his death are the same.
I’ve talked about Col. W.P. Rogers in previous articles, but for those who missed them, here is a short recap. Rogers was a native of Georgia, raised in Alabama, lived in Mis-sissippi and made his fi -nal home in Texas. H was a veteran of the war with Mexico and he had fought at Shiloh and Iuka.
There is no question about the courage he dis-
played in the last minutes of his life during the bat-tle. On that hot October morning thousands of men saw him at the head of his regiment, and for his conspicuous bravery he was buried where he fell, by the Union, with full military honors.
On top of my desk I have 24 different ac-counts and they all attest to his bravery. They just can’t agree on “how” he died. Some say he was on foot, some say on horse-back. Some say he was on the wall of the fort, some say he fell over a hundred yards away. A rather fa-mous photograph taken by Nicholas Brown was used to argue their cases by several observers.
The fi rst hint of dis-agreement began in 1885 when Gen. Dabney Maury (Rogers’ division com-mander) was in Galveston giving a speech about the
battle. He claimed “Col. Rodgers of the 2nd Texas fell within the works he stormed.”
This didn’t sound right to Private James Graham of the 43rd Ohio Infantry who claimed to have seen Rogers fall “more than a hundred yards from Robinett.” Kent Barnett of the 27th Ohio, who had been just a few yards to the right of Graham, said he saw Rogers fall as well. The way he told it, Rogers was still on his horse and within 100 feet when he was hit.
Charles Budd of Iowa used a map he drew of the battlefi eld to pin-point the exact site and was adamant the colonel had been standing on the parapet wall (the fl at part on top) and fell off when he was shot. Jonathon Hi-ran of the 63rd Ohio was in agreement and recalled shooting at Rogers him-
self.The Chaplain of the
63rd Ohio, Benjamin Fry, walked over the ground and confi rmed the fa-mous photograph was in-deed of Rogers, and “The footprints showed that the horse had reached the very edge of the ditch, but staggered backward as he fell.”
You couldn’t tell this to Surgeon E. R. Reed who freely admitted he wasn’t at the battle but arrived an hour after the smoke cleared. Reed had it on account from Nicholas Reed, the photographer who took the picture, that Rogers is not even in the photo and the dead horse belonged to Lt. Charles Heyl of the 43rd Ohio.
Of course this story would not go unchal-lenged and soon Pvt. Hagle of the 11th Missouri chimed in that “almost the entire regiment plain-
ly saw the Colonel and his horse both fall, the man from the saddle and the horse instantly thereaf-ter.” He insisted Pvt. Bob Wood of Company D fi red one of the fatal bullets.
Col. John Fuller, the commander of all of the Ohio regiments clustered around Robinett, claimed he got a good look at Rog-ers face, “when not more than 30 paces and noting the peculiar expression it had. He looked neither right nor left, neither at his own or our men, but with eyes partly closed.” Fuller told how Rogers, “was unhorsed soon after leaving the cover of the woods [300 yards from the fort], but he advanced fearlessly on foot at the head of the column. When his color-bearer was shot down, Rogers picked up the fl ag and deliberately carried it forward until he fell, a few feet before
reaching the ditch of the little fort.”
James Hathaway of the 43rd Ohio told the story of watching as “Col. Rog-ers planted the fl ag on the top of the fort. Yes, but no sooner up than Rogers fell to the ditch, dragging the fl ag with him.”
George Henry of the 11th Missouri watched Rogers fall well short of the fort wall and came up with a souvenir to bolster his claim. “I went to him and in his right hand he clasped his sword. I took it and have it to-day, one of my most prized tro-phies of the war.” Henry may have gotten into an argument with a private in Company H who knew for a fact, “After the John-nies were repulsed Lieut. E. R. Applegate of Co. H, 11th Mo., secured Col. Rogers’s sword and still has it in his possession.”
Since the two claims were made within a month of each other in 1894, at least one of them had someone else’s sword.
And then there was the tale given by Major General William S. Rose-crans, commander of all of the Union forces dur-ing the battle. “The head of the enemy’s column reached within a few feet of Battery Robinett, and Colonel Rogers, who was leading it, colors in hand, dismounted, planted a fl ag-staff on the bank of the ditch, and fell there, shot by one of our drum-mer boys, who, with a pis-tol, was helping to defend Robinett.”
A poor observer, Rose-crans was actually in the

This photograph was taken by Nicholas Brown shortly after the battle. The body in the center of the photo near the stump is widely believed to be Col. W.P. Rogers with his horse to the right.

Now that the opening of dove season is out of the way, lots of area sports-men will be getting their exercise in at an expedi-tious pace as they traverse the landscape to locate a hot-spot for the next most popular hunting season slated to open.
Archery season for deer is right around the corner, and dedicated archers have little time to waste in fi nding a promising open-ing day destination.
Sportsmen who hunt in the state to our north have the least amount of time to spare of all. The Tennessee archery season begins on Sept. 28.
Mississippi’s hunters will have to wait a few more days before getting their fi rst crack at fl inging an arrow. The Mississippi season opens on Tuesday, Oct. 1, and runs through
Nov. 22.Scouting
is an abso-lute must for success-fully hunt-ing white-tails, but there are two things a person should be
mindful of when parking the vehicle and making the trek across his hunt-ing territory: Keep the scouting at low-impact and take note of the avail-able food sources while on the walk.
Low-impact scout-ing should be conducted during the mid-day pe-riod when most deer are bedded. Treat it like you would an actual hunt. Too much stomping around; and leaving scent behind can and will cause deer to
minimize daytime move-ments. The deer’s need to feed comes secondary to staying alive.
I’m reminded of this every time I think about the conversation I had with an ole buddy around this time last year. He car-ried on and on about how hard he was scouting his property each weekend prior to the opening of the season. It’s no wonder he had trouble in seeing any deer at all once it fi nally arrived.
Deer, like any other game animal, lead simple lives. They must have suf-fi cient food and water, cover for alluding preda-tors, reproduce, and keep stresses to a minimum.
During bow season, prior to the mating period later on this fall, success is largely dependent on locating and setting up
on a food source the deer are using at the moment. The deer’s only concern right now is bulking up for what lies ahead. And according to a past study, it is said bucks pack on 20 percent of their body weight in the few months leading up to the rut.
Some good early sea-son food sources to take note of while out scout-ing include fruits such as muscadines, persimmons and other various wild growing sugar-laden ber-ries. These types of fruit are a delicacy to deer and, to be honest, there is no shortage of muscadines and persimmons this year. Considering the uncanny cool weather we’ve had this summer, there will probably still be some fall-ing to the ground by the time season rolls around.
Also, while out and
about, look for white-oak trees laden with acorns. The trees usually don’t start dropping their fruit until the middle of Oc-tober, but when they do, that’s where you want to be. Deer will come after these tiny morsels before they will anything else.
Agricultural fi elds are always good for early sea-son evening bow hunts. You better seal the deal fairly quick, though. It doesn’t take much pres-sure for fi eld hunted deer to fi gure out what’s going on.
Creek bottoms with fl owing water and seem-ingly impenetrable cover are good places to hunt regardless of the time of the season. Deer have all they need to survive in one centralized loca-tion. And if it’s a big buck you’re after, a creek bot-
tom with the description as mentioned is a likely place to catch him moving to and from bedding and feeding areas.
White-tails in early bow season are fi rmly com-mitted to following routes that connect feeding and bedding areas. By doing some low-impact scout-ing and identifying avail-able preferred food sourc-es, the odds of getting to fl ing an arrow tilt dramat-ically in your favor.

vicinity of the Tishom-ingo Hotel at the time and couldn’t even see the front of the battery.
All of these accounts have been from Union soldiers and I can point you too at least a dozen more “eye-witness” tes-timonials which agree on only one fact -- Rog-ers was killed during the battle.
There were Confeder-ate versions of the inci-dent as well, but far fewer in number. Most of the men who saw him die perished alongside him. And no, the existing ac-counts can’t agree with each other either.
Private James McKin-stry of the 42nd Alabama was at the edge of Battery Robinett when a volley was directed at the cluster of Confederates near the wall. “I was still standing just as I was when I fi red my last shot, and within a few feet of Col. Rogers, when a Minie ball went crashing through my left hip and turned me half round; another went tearing through my right shoulder, which changed my position to the front; and another ball crushed through my left shoulder, causing me to drop my gun and my left arm to fall limp at my side. I looked and lo! Every one of the fi fteen men who were
standing with me were in a heap.”
From the 18th Arkan-sas, Private R.T. Martin, “saw our noble Colonel Rogers, commander of the 2nd Texas, of Moore’s Brigade, fall from his horse a lifeless hero.”
One of the most amaz-ing stories, if not the most unlikely, came from the memory of Pvt. T. Arnold of the 35th Mississippi. He wrote of Colonel Rog-ers, “the impersonation of courage and the spirit of chivalry. He urged his horse to the top of the fort between the silenced guns, and he there emp-tied his revolver with coolness and precision in the face of the foe.”
Call me skeptical, but for this scenario the colo-nel’s horse would have had to traverse a 15 foot wide ditch in front of a 10 foot high wall. Take a look at my article on August 18th and read Lt. Charles Labuzan’s account of a soldier who merely raised his head above the wall.
Arnold recalled how Rogers realized the at-tack had failed and, while still in the saddle on top of the wall, asked for the private’s ramrod to tie a white handkerchief on it as a token of surrender. The colonel was killed moments later. To verify his story he mentioned the testimony of, “an old lady who yet lives in
Corinth, but whose name I have forgotten, and who saw both horse and rider fall.”
Last of all is the story as recalled by Lieutenant John H. Clay of the 47th Illinois who watched from the high ground alongside Battery Williams. He dis-misses the idea that Rog-ers was either mounted or made it to the top of the fort. “He fell about forty feet from the ditch.”
Clay went on to eulogize his fallen foe. “In all my service, covering a period of nearly fi ve years in the front, I never witnessed such matchless bravery as was displayed by Col-onel Rogers in leading his men in the charge of
Robinett. Who can blame his people for revering his memory? Plumed knight in chivalric days never won his spurs by deeds more heroic, acts more courageous!” Well said, Comrade Clay.
Friday, October 4th will be the 151st anniversary of the attack on Robinett and the death of Colo-nel Rogers. Come on out for a special program in the morning, on the very ground where he fell, and you can decide for your-self what actually hap-pened.

Creason — Locke
It started with a kiss, a long time ago.
Billie Joyce Williams Shaw-Bell and her neigh-bor friend, Delbert Gar-ner, were both 6 years old when he kissed her on her cheek.
“I didn’t even know what a kiss was then, but I knew that I liked it,” Shaw-Bell said.
The pair seemed insepa-rable until four years later, when Garner and his fam-ily moved to California.
“I cried a lot when they took him away,” Shaw-Bell said. “And then he never wrote me. I’m still mad about that.”
“I never thought to get her address,” Garner said.
Fast forward more than 70 years, and the child-hood sweethearts who were separated at a young age fi nally got together, marrying in a ceremony this past Saturday after-noon.
“We were so glad to get back together,” Shaw-Bell said.
After Garner’s family moved, Delbert would oc-casionally come back to Texas to visit family and check in on Shaw-Bell.
“We’d visit, but every time he’d come down, I’d have a boyfriend,” she said.
Garner would enlist in the service, serving in World War II before get-ting discharged in 1945.
“He’d come visit, and he was just so beautiful in his uniform,” Shaw-Bell said. “I met a lot of sol-diers when I was working, but none were like him.”
Garner’s fi rst stop out
of the service was to Tex-as to visit Shaw-Bell, with the intention of making their relationship offi cial.
“I found out from my family that she had mar-ried two months before that,” he said. “I was a little devastated.”
Shaw-Bell was married to her fi rst husband for 45 years until his passing. Eight years later, she mar-ried Junior Bell, a friend of her late husband’s. That marriage lasted 10 years until his death.
Garner married his wife in 1950, and the two were together for 62 years.
Their marriages pro-duced several children.
“We were both hap-pily married,” Shaw-Bell said. “If things hadn’t have happened like they did, we wouldn’t have our children.”
The couple’s reunion was set in motion when Shaw-Bell’s daughter, Cheryl, made plans to throw a surprise 85th birthday for her mother earlier this year. Cheryl found Garner’s address in Colorado through an internet search, and she sent him an invitation to the party.
“When I got that invita-tion, I called the number on it,” Garner said. “It was probably no less than 15 minutes after I had opened the invitation.”
Garner and Shaw-Bell began spending more time together this year, making the decision to wed a few months ago with the full support of their families.

Founded in 1995, Voic-es of the South is a Mem-phis-based non-profi t theatre company that creates, produces and performs theatre from di-verse Southern perspec-tives.
Renowned writer, ac-tress, and storyteller, Elaine Blanchard; previ-ously known to Voices of the South audiences for her autobiographical per-formance, “For Goodness Sake” and creator of the “Prison Stories” project, is bringing a new chapter in her life story. “Skin and Bones” is an account of her experiences learning to live well with the body
she was given, offering audiences a glimpse into her own struggles with weight, body image, faith, love and family.
“Life offers each of us the opportunity to choose; whether to accept what we have been given, how we live with ourselves and others, and whether to trust and care for our own unique personalities,” she explains.
(TheatreSouth is lo-cated downstairs at First Congregational Church in the Cooper-Young Neigh-borhood. The entrance is on south side of the build-ing. Performances are at 8 p.m. Friday and Satur-days, Sept. 13, 14, 20 and 21; and at 2 p.m. Sundays, Sept. 15 and 22. Tickets are $21 general admis-sion; and $16 seniors/students with college ID.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Walk-ing into Universal Or-lando’s new themed area is a bit surreal. First, you hear familiar music. Then you spot the sign: “Greet-ings from SPRINGFIELD U.S.A.”
And then you get a faint whiff of doughnuts.
The hometown from the animated TV series “The Simpsons” has been brought to life in a theme park.
The full Springfi eld ex-perience opened to the public in the park in Au-gust. Universal has slowly been adding to the area for years, building it around “The Simpsons” ride that opened in 2008. With a new ride — the Kang and Kodos Twirl ‘n’ Hurl — and a food court that in-cludes Moe’s Tavern, the show’s beloved watering hole, the area is now com-plete. Other attractions found in both the show and the park include the Krustyland carnival area and the Kwik-E-Mart, a convenience store on TV
and a gift shop at Univer-sal.
Park designers worked with the show’s creators and writers to build a rich-ly detailed environment where visitors can spend hours eating and snapping selfi es in front of a statue of Chief Wiggum and his police car.
The goal: to make peo-ple feel like they were stepping into the cartoon.
“We call it ‘authentic fi ction,’” said Ric Florell, Universal’s senior vice president and general manager of resort revenue operations.
While most of the de-tails in Springfi eld mirror the TV show, there are a few tweaked concepts.
Take the Twirl ‘n’ Hurl. It’s based on the two aliens on the show, and riders experience a spinning saucer movement while different Simpsons char-acters crack jokes. It’s a pretty calm ride, appropri-ate for all but the smallest of children.
“There’s been no ac-tual hurling, yet,” laughed Mike West, executive pro-
ducer at Universal Cre-ative.
There’s also a new kiosk where visitors can have their photo taken on a rep-lica of the Simpsons’ fam-ily sofa.
And while the bold col-ors, funny signs in the queue of the Twirl ‘n’ Hurl, and brash Krusty the Clown character meet-and-greets are fun, the most impressive part is the food. Universal ex-ecutives said that food is almost another character in the show, and it was a natural to showcase that while telling the Simpsons story in the park.
“There’s a lot of food in the TV episodes,” said Florell. “We had to decide, what’s iconic?”
Steven Jayson, ex-
ecutive chef at Universal Parks and Resorts, said that it took the better part of a year to create 28 new dishes for the area. All of the menu items can only be found in Springfi eld, and everything is made from scratch in Univer-sal’s kitchens, he added.
Not unexpectedly, given Homer Simpson’s diet on the show, health consciousness hasn’t ex-actly arrived in Spring-fi eld (although there is a nod to Lisa Simpson’s love of salads in “Lisa’s Teahouse of Horror,” a self-serve area where folks can grab hummus, greens and pretzels). The food is mostly concentrated in one building, called Fast Food Boulevard, and the mall-like storefronts are
based on restaurants from the show.
There’s the Krusty Burger, named after the cigar-smoking clown. It’s a basic burger, save for the “special sauce” and gooey cheese. For a larger burger, there’s the Clog-ger Burger, which involves two patties and bacon. Or a self-explanatory Chicken and Waffl e Sandwich.
Bumblebee Man’s Taco Truck is new, and sells an unexpected option: Ko-rean beef tacos.
All of the food is either named after something on the show or some-thing that Bart Simpson could conceivably say in a snarky tone: Chicken Thumbs. Heat Lamp Dog. Meat Liker’s Pizza.
One of Homer Simp-son’s favorite things — doughnuts — are avail-able in two sizes: regular and huge. A kiosk called Lard Lad Donuts (and several other places with-in Springfi eld) sells the supersize, pink-frosted doughnuts in boxes. Peo-ple sometimes use them as birthday cakes, Univer-
sal executives say.Visitors of all ages can
quaff a non-alcoholic treat called a Flaming Moe, which is a citrus-vanilla tasting concoction that bubbles and smokes.
But one of the most pop-ular offerings is the beer.
Duff Beer, the main-stay of Homer Simpson’s diet, can be found at two locations in the middle of Springfi eld. One is the Duff Gardens outdoor bar, which overlooks a lagoon and what will eventually be Diagon Alley, part of an upcoming Harry Potter expansion.
The other is Moe’s Tav-ern, a popular photo spot.
There are three kinds of Duff Beer — Duff, Duff Light and Duff Dry (which is a dark beer) — all brewed locally.
On a recent day, visitors were lined up at Moe’s Tavern and Duff Gardens at 11 a.m., waiting for both to open so they could taste the suds.
As Homer once said on the show, “Ah, good ol’ trustworthy beer. My love for you will never die.”

COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. — Aspiring novelist Quinn Gilman-Forlini, an ardent admirer of “The Catcher in the Rye,” wouldn’t mind following in its au-thor’s footsteps.
In fact, the Ursinus Col-lege junior already has: She lived in J.D. Salin-ger’s cramped old dorm room.
“A lot of people say it’s really small, but I just thought it was so charm-ing ... (with) the slanted ceiling and this old ra-diator,” she said. “People come and knock on your door as a freshman want-ing to meet you because you live there.”
Jerome David Salinger attended Ursinus for only a single semester in 1938. But his mystique has en-dured, a legacy now fur-ther fueled by Friday’s release of “Salinger,” a fi lm that attempts to shed light on the life of the in-tensely private man, who died in 2010.
A school directory indi-cates Salinger transferred from New York Universi-ty to the small liberal arts campus in Collegeville, not far from Philadelphia. As a teen, he had spent time at the nearby Valley Forge Military Academy.
At Ursinus, Salinger wrote a feature called “J.D.S.’s The Skipped Di-ploma” for the student newspaper; most of the columns contained brief, unrelated items from cheeky observations to movie reviews. He also served as a drama critic, using the byline “Jerome Salinger” — and he was tough.
“Though undoubtedly guilty of too few rehears-als, the players neverthe-less made a courageous attempt at salvaging most of the somewhat feeble (playwright’s) humor,” Salinger wrote of one pro-
duction.He later dropped out,
and never earned any degree. Still, the Ursinus admissions offi ce proudly displays a 1963 letter from Salinger that professes he looks back “with a great deal of pleasure” on his time at the school — and then asks the registrar to send a course catalog to his baby sitter.
Despite that fond-ness, the reclusive Salin-ger denied the use of his name in the scholarship that allows students like Gilman-Forlini to live in his room. After be-ing contacted by the au-thor’s lawyers, the school renamed it the Creative Writing Award.
The prize, fi rst given in 2007, goes to writers who display a “quirky brilliance,” unusual perspective or a strong voice— perhaps like that of Holden Caulfi eld, the rebellious teen narrator of “Catcher.” Winners get $30,000 per year toward the school’s tuition of $44,350.
“There’s plenty of schol-arships for the brightest and most high-achieving students out there. We’re looking for something a little different,” said Eng-lish professor Jon Volk-mer, who directs the cre-ative writing program and helps choose the winner.
The recipient also gets to spend his or her fi rst year in Curtis Hall’s Room 300, a space just big enough for a single bed, desk and narrow dresser. (A plaque outside the doorway mistakenly says Salinger lived there in 1939; offi cials plan to replace it.)
Though there is only one winner each year, Volkmer said the award has helped create a thriv-ing community of writ-ers on the leafy campus, which serves about 1,700 students. But not all of the
recipients are necessarily Salinger fans, or even end up pursuing the craft.
Current occupant An-nie Rus, an 18-year-old from Parkton, Md., con-ceded she never fi nished “Catcher” but is currently enjoying “Franny and Zooey.” She is consider-ing a major in history.
Maeve Sutherland, who graduated in 2012, said living in the room encour-aged her to write more than she would have. While she said the skill has led to big accomplish-ments, including an inter-national academic fellow-ship. “I guess I wouldn’t really call myself a cre-ative writer anymore,” she said.
Her dorm experience also coincided with Sa-linger’s death at his New Hampshire home.
“We had a little memo-rial seance for him,” said Sutherland. “I felt like I was living with a ghost sometimes.”
Gilman-Forlini, 19, of Putnam Valley, N.Y., said she misses the third-story room and its view of tree-lined walkways below — the same landscape that she imagines Salinger looked down on 75 years ago.
She’s among many die-hard fans eager to see the new documentary. Direc-tor Shane Salerno’s de-cade-long project — which includes a 700-page com-panion biography — con-tends that unpublished Salinger material will be released starting in 2015.
And though Gilman-Forlini isn’t sure about her future career, she has already diverged from the path taken by her favorite author just by starting her third year at Ursinus.
“I always say that I made it farther than J.D. Salinger did in college,” she said with a laugh. “So if I dropped out, it’d be OK.”
Dropout J.D. Salinger createsmystique at Ursinus CollegeBY KATHY MATHESON
Associated Press
Associated PressNEW YORK — Katy
Perry says although she’s “older and wiser,” she still plans to have fun.
Perry debuted 12 songs from her new album, “Prism,” to be released Oct. 22, in front of an audience of 100 industry insiders and journalists Thursday night in New York. The beat-driven al-bum features likable, ra-dio-friendly tracks, much like her multi-hit 2010 ef-fort, “Teenage Dream.”
The 28-year-old pop star played songs like the
‘80s-inspired “Birthday,” which she called “some-thing like Mariah Carey would have put on her fi rst album.” She said “Unconditionally” was her favorite song and she was proud to have written it. “Dark Horse,” which features rapper Juicy J, sounds like a Southern rap-techno mashup.
Perry’s fi rst single, “Roar,” bumped Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” from the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week. She debuted the music video for the
track Thursday.“I’m very excited to
bring visuals to a lot of the songs and play them live,” she said.
“Prism” will include 13 tracks; its deluxe version will have 16 songs. The singer was excited and playful at the event, and even cracked a few jokes. She said the album was due at her label on Mon-day, but not all of the tracks were mixed.
“It’s the ‘Prism’ pre-view. I wanted to show you what my prism can do,” she said to laughs.
