The football career of Ja-cob Gilmore was cut short due to a heart condition.
That didn’t stop the Corinth High School sophomore from taking a shot at another sport.
Gilmore has been in-volved with the 4-H Shooting Sports program over the last six years — taking part in the air rifl e and pistol events.
“The program is a great non-contact sport,” said Gilmore’s mother, Bon-nie, who is also an in-structor. “It helps you overcome obstacles in
your life.”Those interested in get-
ting involved in the pro-gram can attend an open house on Monday from 6-8 p.m. at the Alcorn County Extension Ser-vice. At the open house, instructors will be on hand to share more about shooting sports.
“This is an opportu-nity for new kids to learn about the program,” said 4-H agent Tammy Parker. “There will a be a folder of information for them to look over and we will also play a DVD that explains what the program is all about.”

The Corinth High School Alumni Associa-tion has named its 2011 Distinguished Alumnus of the Year.
He is Dr. Mark Kee-num, a 1979 graduate of CHS and currently the president of Mississippi State University.
“It is indeed a high honor and one that will always have special meaning for me,” said Keenum. “I owe so much of my personal devel-opment to my experiences at CHS. The strong academ-ics and my involvement as an athlete helped shape me into who I am today.”
Keenum’s career
An MSU alumnus, Kee-num began his career with the MSU faculty and returned to Starkville as the university’s 19th pres-
ident on Jan. 5, 2009, following a distinguished public service career.
Keenum joined the MSU faculty as a marketing spe-cialist with the MSU Coop-erative Extension Service in 1984, two years after earn-ing his bachelor’s and mas-ter’s degrees in agricultural economics. Continuing his studies of agricultural economics, Keenum com-pleted his doctorate in 1988 and joined that depart-ment’s faculty as an assis-tant professor/economist.
In 1989 he was named to the Washington, D.C., staff of U.S. Senator Thad Cochran as legislative as-sistant for Agriculture and Natural Resources, where he worked on wide-ranging issues affecting American agriculture.
Keenum served as Sena-tor Cochran’s chief of staff from 1996 to 2006 and

Paul Thorn is thrilled to be coming home.
The singer-songwriter from Tupelo will be rock-ing Downtown Corinth Saturday night as the headliner for the closing night of the 2011 Hog Wild Barbecue Festival in the parking lot at the corner of Cruise and Fill-more streets.
“I’m excited about it. I don’t get to play near where I live very much. We’re going to sing some old songs and some new
songs and after the show I want to stick around and say hello to some people I haven’t seen in a while. It’ll be like a big ole hometown reunion,” said Thorn.
The son of a Pentecos-tal preacher, Thorn grew up singing in church and at tent revivals. He’s also a former professional boxer who worked his way up the ranks to a nationally televised fi ght against the legendary Roberto Duran. Thorn released his debut al-bum “Hammer & Nail” in 1997 and during his nearly two decades of touring and recording
he’s released nine al-bums and grown from a regional act to a nation-ally-known performer whose high-energy live shows draw big crowds across the country as he and his band perform more than a hundred dates a year.
Thorn said his many years as a performer have taught him that it’s important to be more than just someone who stands on stage and sings. He cites legend-ary entertainers such as Dean Martin as major infl uences on his perfor-mances.
“I sing my songs, but
between songs I try to talk to the crowd. I try my best to be an enter-tainer in the fashion of some of the old enter-tainers,” he said.
While Thorn’s rootsy mix of rock, country, soul and gospel may not be the same as Martin, he believes the legendary crooner set the standard for entertaining a crowd.
“You know lots of peo-ple can just stand there and sing, but entertain-ing is a whole different category. People want to put their money down and they want to enjoy

something. I always try to make people laugh, not be worried so much for the couple of hours I’m in front of them, forget about their problems for a while,” he said.
Thorn is quick to show his appreciation for his success and he says he understands he’s able to do what he does because of the support shown to him by his growing fan base. He said he believes it’s his responsibility to return that love and sup-port by giving them the best show possible.
“The thing that keeps me going, especially now, we’re in a time when the country’s in trouble and a lot of people don’t have a job and don’t have any money, and in spite of that each year my crowds have gotten bigger and each record has sold more than the one before,” he said. “At the end of the day, I love to play music, but it’s a business. I have a wife and two kids I re-ally want to provide for and when the fans come out, that’s why I want to shake their hands and hug their necks, because I
love them because they’ve made it possible and I want them to have a good time when they come.”
With nine albums un-der his belt, including his most recent “Pimps and Preachers”, Thorn said choosing which songs to play each night can be diffi cult. He understands fans all have their own fa-vorites and he tries to play a mix of old and new and fi nd the songs that truly connect with the crowds.
“I’ve got nine albums out and there’s usually two or three songs off each album that seem to connect with people more than others,” he said.
One song people are al-most certain to hear is his signature ballad “I Have a Good Day”. The song tells the story of a man going through a tough time in life and holding on to the hope of recovery. It’s a fan favorite and a tribute to a deceased friend.
“I pretty much don’t ever do a show where I don’t play ‘I Have a Good Day’. That song’s a very special song to me be-cause a friend of mine who has passed away, Steve Ward, I was talking to him on the phone one
day and he actually said the phrase ‘I have a good day every now and then’. I wrote a song based on that phrase and now that he’s gone, his words still live on and people seem to relate to that,” said Thorn.
Thorn will be perform-ing Saturday night with his four-piece band, a tal-ented group of musicians that have been together in almost the same lineup for nearly 15 years. It in-cludes guitarist Bill Hinds from Lookout Mountain, Ga., drummer Jeffery Perkins from Nashville, bassist Ralph Friedrich-son and Thorn’s fellow Northeast Mississippian, keyboardist Michael “Dr. Love” Graham. Thorn’s team also includes his songwriting partner and manager Billy Maddox who has been with him for 30 years.
“We built this thing together and I’m a very fortunate person to have the team of people that I do around me because no one can succeed by them-selves. It takes more than one person,” he said.
Thorn encourages ev-eryone to come out Sat-urday night and join him
and the band for an excit-ing evening that may in-clude some surprises.
“There’s defi nitely a chance of some surprise guests,” he said.
He’s looking forward to the show and to staying around afterward to sign autographs and visit with everyone who wants to say hello.
The singer said anyone who’s not familiar with him and his work should visit his website at www.paulthorn.com where they’ll fi nd music, photos, videos and more. He’s also active on Facebook and Twitter where he posts regularly and works to stay in touch with his fans.
Gates open for the show Saturday at 6 p.m. with the music starting at 7 p.m. with local performers Wild Child, followed by pop, country and South-ern rock cover band the New Outlaws and Thorn’s performance to close out the show. Tickets are $10 and may be purchased at the gate or in advance at the Main Street Corinth offi ce at The Alliance of-fi ce on Cass Street. For more information, call Main Street Corinth at 662-287-1550.

It’s time for Corinth to
turn green again -- with a little Halloween orange sprinkled in -- as the Oc-tober Green Market re-turns from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the Corinth Depot.
The Green Market will be highlighted by a pet costume contest at noon. Pet owners can enter their pet in the event by making a donation to the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter.
Money raised from the contest will be used to purchase igloo houses and miscellaneous supplies for the shelter. Monetary or
supply donations will also be accepted from ones not entered in the contest.
The contest is for pets only and owners dressed up will not be judged. The winning entry will collect doggie treats and a gift certifi cate from The Din-ner Bell.

advised the senator on political, legislative and appropriations issues. He left the nation’s capital in 2008 to serve as Under Secretary of the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture in the George W. Bush administration. In his two years in this post he lead the Farm Service Agency, the Risk Management Agency and the Foreign Agricultural Service.
Keenum earned the Hunger’s Hope Award for Distinguished Public Service from America’s Second Harvest, the na-tion’s leading hunger relief charity, for leading USDA initiatives to fi ght world hunger and pro-mote capacity-building in developing countries.
At MSU he has con-tinued to focus on the issue of world hunger, creating an Interna-tional Institute in 2011 to coordinate university involvement in academ-ic and research activi-ties on a global scale.
Under Keenum’s di-rection the college has solidifi ed its position as the state’s fl agship re-search university, earn-ing a Carnegie Founda-tion classifi cation as the only research university in the state with “very high research activity,” one of 108 in the nation.
Keenum at CHS
Keenum began his high school years at CHS as a sophomore in 1976. Before graduating in 1979 he made many lifelong friends and was shaped by the formative infl uences of the CHS teachers and athletic staff — and the experi-ence of playing for win-ning football teams.
“There was a great at-mosphere for learning and personal development at CHS,” said Keenum.
An important facet of his high school experi-ence was the time spent playing football for Head Coach Johnny Plummer in his sophomore and ju-nior years, and for Head Coach Charles McComb as a senior.
“I appreciated their leadership and support,” Keenum said. “They were great infl uences in my life and taught me much more than just the Xs and Os of football.”
Keenum played cen-ter on the defensive line and had great admira-tion for Jack Holliday, offensive line coach and the young athlete’s 10th grade biology teacher.
“I learned a lot from him in the classroom and on the football fi eld,” Keenum said of Holliday.
Playing football at CHS, Keenum appre-ciated the close rela-tionships he formed with his fellow team members and learned
lessons about working with others in pursuit of a common goal.
The indelible infl u-ence of CHS teachers contributed to Kee-num’s success in life and academia as well.
“My teachers were outstanding and encour-aged me to apply myself and gave me confi dence that I could succeed in the classroom and be-yond,” he said.
He cites his chemistry teacher, Dean Pearce, who taught “in an always entertaining way” and made learning fun, and Ruth Sharp, who Kee-num called an excep-tional English teacher.
“She was a discipli-narian in the classroom, very strict, but I enjoyed the experience,” he re-membered.
He also learned a great deal from literature teacher Margaret Labas and William Cole, the advanced math teacher who provided Keenum with a strong foundation in mathematics.
“These individuals were so committed to their jobs and helped prepare me for the next level,” Keenum said. He also had the greatest re-spect for Principal Har-old P. Smith: “He was strict, but fair, and pro-vided strong leadership.”
Always a Warrior
Now presiding over a respected research uni-versity in a period of record growth — with enrollment fi gures at all-time highs and a re-cord number of fresh-men who are reporting the highest grade point averages in the school’s history — Keenum says he will always be a proud Corinth Warrior.
“I know the pride I feel in being a graduate of Corinth High School, and I still follow its sports teams and the news gen-erated from the academ-ic accomplishments of its students,” he said.
He points to orga-nizations like the CHS Alumni Association as an integral part of the job of educating the stu-dents who will shape America’s future.
“Having a strong group of graduates offering en-couragement and sup-port is a key element in helping administrators, faculty and students con-tinue to pursue excel-lence,” said Keenum.
The CHS Alumni Asso-ciation will present Kee-num the Distinguished Alumnus of the Year award on Friday, Oct. 7, at halftime at Corinth’s foot-ball game against Amory. An Alumni tent with light refreshments will be set up inside Warrior Stadi-um the night of the event for people to come by and visit with the 2011 Distin-guished Alumnus.
ship,” said Posey.Posey, whose son Mi-
cah is part of the archery portion of the program, says youngsters will be taught the safe way to use a bow along with good
sportsmanship.Clubbers can choose
from the shooting disci-plines of air rifl e, air pis-tol, .22 rifl e, shotgun, .22 pistol and archery. Par-ticipants ages 8-9 are lim-ited to the air rifl e and air pistol division.
“The air rifl e and pistol is a good way for them to start,” said Parker.
Both of those disci-plines are taught inside at the extension service.
“Being involved opens doors to things like the Junior Olympics,” added
Parker.Jacob Gilmore agrees.“Getting involved in
shooting sports is a good way to meet people you wouldn’t normally meet,” said Gilmore. “It also def-initely teaches you disci-pline and character.”

Mr. Keller died Friday, September 23, 2011.He was born in Philadelphia, Pa. on August 22,
1942 the son of the late Robert Keller Sr. and Doro-thy H. Kennedy Selby. On Dec. 17, 1982, he was unit-ed in marriage to Nan Phillips.
Mr. Keller had also lived in Bellfl ower, Calif.; Oak Harbor, Wash.; and Corinth. He was a member of the United States Navy from 1966-1969, a member of the Masons and a Shriner. He was the owner/manager of Arrow Sandblasting.

The results of domestic violence are often dire, and several groups in the community are bringing the issue before the com-munity.
The public is invited to a presentation by Mag-nolia Regional Health Center’s Crossroads Cen-ter for Emotional care, the Northeast Missis-sippi Law Enforcement Training Center and the Mississippi Attorney General’s Offi ce at 6 p.m. on Tuesday at the hospi-tal conference center.
Local crime statistics show that the problem is alive and well in Corinth, with more than 40 per-cent of homicides in the last 20 years attributed to
domestic violence cases.“It is a growing epi-
demic that is affecting individuals of every com-munity, economic status, religion, race, age and ed-ucational background,” said Dana Jenkins, com-munity education man-ager at Crossroads Center for Emotional Care.
She notes that, statis-tically, a woman is as-saulted or beaten every nine seconds in the U.S.; more than three women
are murdered by their husband or boyfriends each day; and 10 million children are exposed to some type of domestic violence annually. The cost of related medical and mental health ser-vices is in the billions.
Jenkins notes the of-fenses are often un-der-reported — only one-quarter of physical assaults, one-half of all stalkings and one-fi fth of all rapes against women
are investigated by police.“Women are not the
only ones affected by domestic violence,” said Jenkins. “Men and chil-dren are greatly affected, too. The difference in cases involving men is that a man rarely reports the domestic violence in-cident to the authorities.”
Children who witness domestic violence are more likely to become abusers, and education can play a big role in prevention.
“By educating children and teenagers about healthy relationships, we may be one step closer to preventing future abus-ers,” said Jenkins.
Jenkins requests a call from those who plan to attend at 293-5524. The National Domestic Vio-lence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233.

JACKSON — Due to the over-whelming number of children with eye and vision problems across the United States, Mississippi optom-etrists are devoting appointments throughout the year to no-cost, com-prehensive eye and vision assess-ments for infants between six to 12 months of age through InfantSEE.
To call attention to and empha-size the importance of this effort, Mississippi Governor Haley Bar-bour has proclaimed September 24 through October 1, 2011 In-fantSEE Week in Mississippi.
“The most critical stages of vi-sion develop in a child’s fi rst year of life, and undetected eye and vision problems can lead to permanent vi-sion impairment, loss of life or a de-crease in a child’s quality of life,” said Governor Barbour. “I encourage the citizens of Mississippi to participate in InfantSEE Week by scheduling a comprehensive eye and vision as-sessment for their infants.”
InfantSEE, an ongoing public health program developed by Op-tometry Cares - The AOA Foun-dation and Vistakon, Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., was de-signed to provide professional eye care for infants nationwide at no-cost, regardless of family income or number of eligible children.
One in 10 infants is at risk from un-diagnosed eye and vision problems, which, if undetected, could lead to permanent vision impairment, and in rare cases, life-threatening health risks. However, only 14 percent of children from infancy to age six have had a comprehensive eye assess-ment from an eye care professional, according to the American Optomet-
ric Association’s Pediatric Eye and Vision study. In Mississippi, great strides are being made to ensure that potential eye and vision problems are detected early. Infant eye assess-ments have been available in the state since the InfantSEE program launched in 2005.
“Many parents are surprised to learn that a child’s eyes are going through so many important devel-opmental stages so early in life,” said Dr. Susanne Cunningham, a Mississippi optometrist and In-fantSEE provider. “It’s the ideal time to detect eye and vision prob-lems before conditions worsen or cause developmental delays.”
“I discovered the InfantSEE pro-gram from a family friend and I am so glad I did because our optometrist found signs of lazy eye in my daugh-ter’s eyes,” said Heather Ward, a local mother of Hailey, 18 months. “After doing the eye exercises the doctor prescribed for Hailey, her eyes were functioning normally by her next appointment. Given my ex-perience, I know how critical it is to have infants’ eyes examined. In fact, I created business cards about the InfantSEE program and I give one to every mom I meet!”
The InfantSEE program launched in 2005 with support from former President Jimmy Carter, honorary national spokes-person. To date, more than 8,800 optometrists nationwide volunteer their time to provide assessments to babies in their communities. The majority of vision problems detect-ed include severe hyperopia (far-sightedness), myopia (nearsight-edness), congenital glaucoma and
congenital cataract. A less common vision problem that can also be de-tected during an infant’s compre-hensive eye assessment includes retinoblastoma (eye cancer).
In an effort to ensure healthy vision and eye health in North Mississippi infants, parents can bring their infant for a no-cost as-sessment at participating optome-trists’ offi ces by appointment.

“Vision without action is a daydream; action without vision is a nightmare.”
-- Japanese Proverb How much could you accom-
plish if you opened your eyes in the morning but never got out of bed? Nothing would be achieved. Until you take action by getting out of bed, it’s im-possible to get anything done. This is vision without action.
Now imagine waking up in an unfamiliar room. You have a lot to do. You’re fi lled with enthusiasm. You jump out of bed without opening your eyes. The result will be that you bang into furniture, trip over things you can’t see, and have a diffi cult time getting out of the room. Not only will your productivity be hindered; you run the risk of getting hurt. This is action without vision.
Here is another analogy of vision without action. You are sitting in your car looking out the window. With you is a travel brochure of your favorite destination and a map showing the best route to take to get there. Until you start the engine and begin driving, you won’t go anywhere.
But what happens if your windshield is paint-ed black and yet you start driving? It doesn’t matter whether you know where you want to go or not. In short order you are certain to crash. Again, this is the result of action without vision.
Vision is a mental picture of your goals. There is no limit to how detailed your vision can be. The more precise your vision, the more power-ful its effect. A vague vision, such as being hap-py, wealthy or having a satisfying career, has little effect. Once you can defi ne exactly what makes you happy, how much money you need to be wealthy, or what type of job is satisfying, you have a vision that can inspire you.
Your vision should never be what you don’t want. Your desires must be formulated in terms of the positive circumstances you desire in your life. For example, rather than visualiz-ing not being overweight you would visualize being in shape. You don’t want to visualize not being poor, instead you would visualize hav-ing enough money to meet all of your needs.
Your vision should also be in the present tense. In your mind, you imagine having already suc-ceeded. If you want to buy a house, visualize yourself living in the exact home you want. Are you looking for a specifi c job? Think as if you now have the job and imagine how you feel as a result.
A clear, precise, and vivid vision of what you seek is a powerful fi rst step. But by itself, it is ineffectual. Even with an intense desire, noth-ing will happen until you take action. Action enables you to harness the power of your vision.
As the above examples illustrate, action without vision is at best pointless, or at worst a disaster. If you don’t know where you want to go, there is no point to taking action. People who panic and act impul-sively, without any thought, planning or di-rection usually wind up in a worse situation than when they started.
Take enough time to develop your vision. Find and post pictures of what you want. This will help keep your vision active in both your conscious and subconscious thoughts. Once you have your detailed vision, start to take action. You only need to begin with one step, no matter how small. Then follow up with an-other and keep going. Consistent action will energize your vision and bring it to reality.

Harnessing the power of vision
Prayer for today
A verse to share
One of the problems in trying to select a leader for any large organization or institution is the tendency to start out looking for Su-perman, passing up many good people who fail to meet that standard, and eventu-ally ending up settling for a warm body.
Some Republicans seem to be longing for another Ronald Reagan. Good luck on that one, unless you are prepared to wait for several generations.
Moreover, even Ronald Reagan himself did not al-ways act like Ronald Reagan.
The current outbreak of “gotcha” attacks on Texas Governor Rick Perry show one of the other pitfalls for those who are trying to pick a national leader. The three big sound-bite issues used against him during the TV “debates” have involved Social Security, immigration and a vaccine against cervical cancer.
Where these three is-sues have been discussed at length, whether in a few media accounts or in Gov. Perry’s own more extended discussions in an interview on Sean Hannity’s program, his position was far more reasonable than it appeared to be in either his oppo-nents’ sound bites or even in his own abbreviated ac-counts during the limited
time available in the TV “de-bate” format.
On Social Security, Gov. Perry was not only right to call it a “Ponzi s c h e m e , ” but was also right to point out that this did not mean welshing on the govern-ment’s obligation to contin-ue paying retirees what they had been promised.
Even those of us who still disagree with particular de-cisions made by Governor Perry can see some of those decisions as simply the er-rors of a decent man who realized that he was faced not with a theory but with a situation.
For example, the ability to save young people from cervical cancer with a stroke of a pen was a temptation that any decent and humane individual would fi nd hard to resist, even if Gov. Perry himself now admits to sec-ond thoughts about how it was done.
Many of us can agree with Congresswoman Michele Bachmann’s contention that it should have been done differ-ently. But it refl ects no credit on her to have tried to scare people with claims about the
dangers of vaccination.Such scares have already
cost the lives of children who have died on both sides of the Atlantic from diseases that vaccination would have prevented.
The biggest mischarac-terization of Gov. Perry’s position has been on im-migration. The fact that he has more confi dence in put-ting “boots on the ground” along the border, instead of relying on a fence that can be climbed over or tunneled under where there is no one around, is a logistical judg-ment, not a question of being against border control.
Texas Rangers have al-ready been put along the border to guard the border where the federal govern-ment has failed to guard it. Former Sen. Rick Santo-rum’s sound-bite attempts to paint Gov. Perry as soft on border control have ap-parently been politically suc-cessful, judging by polls.
But his repeated interrupt-ing of Perry’s presentation of his case during the recent debate is the kind of cheap political trick that contrib-utes nothing to public un-derstanding and much to public misunderstanding.
Those of us who disagree with Gov. Perry’s decision to allow the children of ille-gal immigrants to attend the
state colleges and universi-ties, under the same terms as Texas citizens, need at least to understand what his options were. These were children who were here only because of their par-ents’ decisions and who had graduated from a Texas high school. Gov. Perry saw the issue as whether these chil-dren should now be allowed to continue their education, and become self-supporting taxpayers, or whether Texas would be better off with a higher risk of those young people becoming dependents or worse. I still see Gov. Per-ry’s decision as an error, but the kind of error that a de-cent and humane individual would be tempted to make.
I have far more questions about those who would blow this error up into something that it is not. Error-free lead-ers don’t exist -- and we don’t want to end up settling for a warm body.
Ultimately, this is not about Gov. Perry. It is about a process that can destroy any potential leader, even when the country needs a new leader with a character that the “gotcha” attackers dem-onstrate they do not have.

Superman versus a warm body
As bad news piles up for the Democrats, I asked a top Democratic strategist if it was possible that Obama might “pull a Lyndon Johnson” and soberly face the cameras tell-ing America that he has de-cided that the demands of partisan politics are interfer-ing with his efforts to right our economy, and he has decided to withdraw to devote full time to our recovery. His answer: “Yes. It’s possible. If things continue as they are and have not turned around by Janu-ary, it is certainly possible.”
Just looking at Michelle Obama’s unsmiling face dur-ing her husband’s recent speech to Congress triggered an insight: These folks aren’t having fun anymore.
Obama, whose insistence on passing a health care law that the courts will probably throw out, cost his party the House and will now cost his party the Senate, too. Indeed, it is even possible that the Re-publicans win 60 seats.
Currently, there are strong Republican candidates in 12 states represented by Demo-crats. In a 10- to 15-point landslide (which is shap-ing up) all could win. They include: Virginia (George
Allen), Florida (Adam Has-ner), New Mexico (probably Congressman Steve Pearce), Montana (Congressman Den-ny Rehberg), North Dakota (Congressman Rick Berg), Nebraska (Jon Bruning), Missouri (Sarah Steelman would be the best), Michigan (Pete Hoekstra), Ohio (Josh Mandel would be good), Wis-consin (Tommy Thompson or one of the others), Penn-sylvania (Tim Burns would be great), and Connecticut (Chris Shays -- better than Linda McMahon).
If all win, the GOP is only one vote shy of 60. The fi nal seats could come if strong chal-lenges shape up in West Vir-ginia, New Jersey, Washington State, Minnesota and Mary-land. And, with Obama this far behind, they probably will.
These senators -- all with targets painted on them -- are not going to be happy to see Obama at the top of the ticket dragging the party -- and them -- down to massive defeat.
President Obama’s historic race to the top in 2008 was animated by huge margins and turnouts among four key groups: African-Americans, Latinos, Jews and young vot-ers. New polling data and the results of the Brooklyn-
Queens, Turner-Weprin elec-tions suggest that his base is decaying, piece by piece.
■ An analysis of the past three Fox News surveys indi-cates that Obama’s job approv-al rating among under 30-year-old voters has declined to 44 percent. By combining the past three surveys, Fox News was able to accumulate data on 600 under 30 voters, indi-cating a sharp decrease in the president’s approval from his former supporters.
■ According to Gallup, Obama’s approval among Latinos has also dropped to 44 percent. Aggregating data from recent polls as Fox News did, Gallup concluded that the president’s ratings among Lati-nos were not much higher than among the general electorate.
■ The election of Republi-can Bob Turner in the single most Jewish district in Amer-ica -- one that had not gone Republican since the 1920s, shows the decay in Obama’s Jewish support. Alienated by his perceived anti-Israeli bias, Orthodox, Conservative and Reform Jews voted in mas-sive numbers for Turner. Re-sults in heavily Jewish areas refl ected his desertion. But even in neighborhoods like Forest Hills, Queens, popu-lated by Reform and Conser-
vative Jews, showed the can-didates running almost even.
Only the African-Americans remain of Obama’s 2008 co-alition. Surveys show his ap-proval among blacks above 80 percent indicating no diminu-tion of his enthusiasm there.
Yet the entire campaign strategy of the Obama people is to move to the left, fanning class warfare, to elicit strong liberal support. Rather than compensating for his loss of liberals by reaching out to independents and traditional swing voters, he just doubles down on his appeal to the left, further alienating the middle.
But the kind of enthusiasm Obama kindled in 2008 can-not be ignited easily by nega-tive appeals. Particularly if the Republicans nominate a more moderate candidate like Mitt Romney, Obama will not be able to rely on partisan animosity to succeed where job approval has failed. And, given all that, he may not even run.
(Dick Morris, former ad-visor to the Clinton admin-istration, is a commentator and author of “Rewriting History.” He is also a colum-nist for the New York Post and The Hill. His wife, Eileen McGann is an attorney and consultant.)
Is it possible Obama will pull out?

Biofuels facility set in Golden Triangle area
STARKVILLE — Gov. Haley Barbour is scheduled to tour the Golden Triangle Regional Landfill on Thursday where local officials will be building an operation to capture methane gas to produce electricity.
GE Energy, which is installing the engines to run the facility, says a ceremonial ribbon cutting for the facility has been tenta-tively scheduled for Oct. 11.
The Golden Triangle facility — which serves the Columbus, Starkville and West point areas — was the first one to be ap-proved by the Mississippi Public Service Commission. That ap-proval came last December.
The Tennessee Valley Author-ity will buy the power generated from the Golden Triangle facility through the 4 County Electric Power Association distribution system.
Golden Triangle Regional Solid Waste Management Authority officials said converted methane gas will be used as fuel for a 1 megawatt facility to generate electricity.
Officials expect the plant to be running by the end of the month.
School bus driverarrested in sex case
JACKSON — A Clinton school bus driver has been charged with sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl.
Hinds County Sheriff’s Depart-ment Capt. Henry Glaze says 69-year-old Shepard Ray Havens of Bolton was arrested Wednes-day. Havens was being held in the county jail pending an initial court appearance.
Glaze says the girl is a fifth grader at Eastside Elementary School. The incident allegedly occurred on Havens’ bus last Friday.
Glaze says the girl told her par-ents who contacted authorities.
School officials say Havens
was placed on unpaid leave Mon-day by the school district and he resigned following his arrest. Ha-vens had been employed by the district for about three years.
Ex-minister indictedon sex charges
JACKSON — Prosecutors say a former Clinton High School choir teacher has been indicted on eight felony counts of gratifica-tion of lust in Hinds County.
Hinds County Assistant District Attorney Jamie McBride tells The Clarion-Ledger that John Langworthy was served with the indictment Wednesday.
Langworthy is accused of be-friending boys at two Jackson Baptist churches more than two decades ago, then sexually abus-ing them.
McBridge says Langworthy was booked Wednesday at the Hinds County Detention Center in Ray-mond and released on bond.
He was initially arrested Sept. 7.
Jeff Rimes, Langworthy’s at-torney, said he and Langworthy have been in regular contact with the district attorney’s office.
LRMA announcesmuseum expansion
LAUREL — Lauren Rogers Museum of Art officials say a $5 million capital campaign will add 5,400 square feet to the Laurel museum.
The Hattiesburg American re-ports the campaign, in its silent phase for the past 15 months, has already raised $4.25 million.
The museum will use $3.5 mil-lion for new gallery space, a new storage vault and an expanded loading dock.
The remaining $1.5 million will be directed toward the museum’s endowment.
Officials expect to break ground on the new space in January, with a grand opening planned for May 2013 - in time for the museum’s 90th anniver-sary.
State Briefs
BILLINGS, Mont. — The Obama administration is tak-ing steps to extend new federal protections to a list of imperiled animals and plants that reads like a manifest for Noah’s Ark — from the melodic golden-winged warbler and slow-mov-ing gopher tortoise, to the slimy American eel and tiny Texas kangaroo rat.
Compelled by a pair of recent legal settlements, the effort in part targets species that have been mired in bureaucratic limbo even as they inch toward potential extinction.
With a Friday deadline to act on more than 700 pending cases, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service already has issued deci-sions advancing more than 500 species toward potential new protections under the Endan-gered Species Act.
Observers said the agency’s actions mark a breakthrough for a program long criticized by conservatives and liberals alike as cumbersome and slow.
“Here at a single glance, you see the sweep of the Endan-gered Species Act,” said Patrick Parenteau, an environmental law professor at the University of Vermont. “They are moving through this large backlog at a fairly crisp clip now. This is the largest number of listing ac-tions we’ve seen in a very long time, in decades.”
Also among species that advanced for further consid-eration are 35 snails from Ne-vada’s Great Basin, 82 crawfi sh from the Southeast, 99 Hawai-ian plants and a motley cast of butterfl ies, birds, fi sh, beetles, frogs, lizards, mussels and more from every corner of the coun-try.
Some have languished for decades on a “candidate list” of species the government says warrant protection but that it lacks the resources to help.
The fl urry of recent action
could help revive Obama’s standing among wildlife advo-cates upset over the administra-tion’s support for taking gray wolves off the endangered list in the Northern Rockies and Up-per Great Lakes, among other issues.
But it also comes amid a backlash in Congress against the 37-year-old endangered species program. Earlier this year, citing restrictions against development and other activi-ties, Republicans unsuccessfully sought to strip the federal bud-get of money to list new species as threatened or endangered.
Most of the decisions made under the current settlements are preliminary. So far only 12 new animals and plants have reached the fi nal step and been added to the almost 1,400 spe-cies on the government’s threat-ened and endangered list. Also, not every species made the cut to take the next step. Roughly 40 rejections have been meted out, including for plains bison, the giant Palouse earthworm of Idaho and Utah’s Gila monster. Those rejections are subject to court challenges.
Friday’s deadline was estab-lished in a pair of settlements approved by U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan on Sept. 9. Those deals resolved multiple lawsuits brought against the Fish and Wildlife Service by two environmental groups, Arizona-based Center for Biological Di-versity and New Mexico-based WildEarth Guardians.
WildEarth Guardians’ Mark Salvo said the agency’s actions so far lend credence to claims that the affected species were in serious trouble.
“The science supports pro-tecting these species,” he said. “They were obviously in peril, and our agreement with the agency was intended to allow it fi nally address these listings.”
Fish and Wildlife Service di-rector Dan Ashe praised the deal and referred to the Endangered
Species Act as a “critical safety net for America’s imperiled fi sh, wildlife and plants” in a state-ment provided by his offi ce.
Agency spokeswoman Van-essa Kauffman said much of the work to comply with the settlements was well under way before the deals were fi nalized. The settlements also contained provisions aimed at limiting the number of petitions that can be fi led by the two environmental groups if they want additional animals and plants considered for protections.
Kauffman said that would free up agency staff to spend more time on species recovery.
Noah Greenwald with the Center for Biological Diversity said the Fish and Wildlife Ser-vice was making “substantial progress.”
“This is what we were looking for — starting to move species out of the pipeline into listing, and getting more species into the pipeline to get them under consideration,” he said.
But U.S. Rep. Mike Simpson, an Idaho Republican who in-troduced the budget provision stripping the listing program of funding, issued a statement calling the endangered program “outdated.” His offi ce said he would continue to oppose it.
“Congress desperately needs to modernize the ESA (Endan-gered Species Act) to make it work,” Simpson said. “Today the ESA is a tool for controlling land and water, not for preserv-ing species.”
Simpson’s comments refl ect the antipathy toward the en-dangered act from conserva-tives and business leaders who see it as hampering economic development. Those tensions have surfaced frequently dur-ing the act’s history, from fi ghts in the 1980s over the spotted owl and logging in the Pacifi c Northwest to recent clashes over how much undeveloped habitat threatened grizzly bears need to survive.

WASHINGTON — The number of people seeking unemployment benefi ts fell sharply last week, an encouraging sign that lay-offs are easing.
Weekly applications dropped 37,000 to a sea-sonally adjusted 391,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. That’s the lowest level since April 2 and the fi rst time appli-cations have fallen below 400,000 since Aug. 6.
Some of the improve-ment was due to techni-cal factors related to the seasonal adjustment of the data, a Labor Depart-ment spokesman said. The spokesman also said some states reported higher applications in previous weeks due to Hurricane Irene.
As a result, the drop “may not be as encourag-ing as it looks,” said Paul Dales, an economist at Capital Economics. “Fur-
ther falls will be needed before we can conclude a downward trend is under-way.”
Applications typically need to fall below 375,000 to signal substantial job growth. They haven’t been that low since February. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, fell to 417,000, the fi rst drop in six weeks.
Most recent evidence shows the job market is sluggish and the economy is weak.
The economy expanded only 1.3 percent in the April-June quarter, the Commerce Department said in a separate report Thursday. That’s a mild improvement from last month’s estimate of 1 per-cent growth.
Most economists expect growth will pick up a bit in the second half of this year, but not enough to lower the unemployment rate. A forecasting panel for the National Association for Business Economics pre-
dicts total growth for 2011 will be just 1.7 percent.
Consumers are reluc-tant to spend, with un-employment high, wages stagnant, and gas prices at about $3.50 a gallon.
Consumer confi dence plunged in August to re-cessionary levels, after lawmakers battled over raising the government’s borrowing limit and Stan-dard & Poor’s cut its rating on long-term U.S. debt. That sent the stock mar-ket sharply lower, which hurts consumers’ ability to spend.
Retail sales were fl at in August, a sign the turmoil caused consumers to pull back.
Anemic growth has prompted many business-es to pull back on hiring. Employers added no net jobs in August, the worst showing in almost a year. The unemployment rate was stuck at 9.1 percent for the second straight month.
Investors also worried last week that Europe
won’t be able to prevent Greece from defaulting and worsening the region’s debt crisis. That sent the U.S. stock market down 6.4 percent, its biggest weekly loss since October 2008, in the midst of the fi nancial crisis.
If Greece defaults, that could destabilize other indebted countries, such as Portugal, Ireland and Italy. It could also harm many of Europe’s banks, which own Greek debt.
If European banks hoard cash to make up for their losses and stop lending to their U.S. counterparts, that could restrict credit in the United States and slow the economy. And a fi nancial crisis in Europe would reduce U.S. compa-nies’ exports and sales to the region.
The slow growth and turmoil have raised fears that the U.S. economy could enter another reces-sion. Some economists put the odds as high as 40 per-cent.
Fewer people apply for unemployment
Associated PressSPRING HILL, Tenn. —
The United Auto Workers leader in Spring Hill said restarting assembly at the General Motors Co. plant and creating some 1,700 new jobs two years after shutting it down shows the auto industry bailout was the right move and President Barack Obama deserves credit.
UAW Local 1853 Presi-dent Mike O’Rourke said Wednesday there will be about 2,200 workers, including some who are already building GM en-gines at the former Saturn plant, and another 15,000 spinoff jobs in the sur-rounding Middle Tennes-see region.
“Hey, that’s pretty good news for the area,” O’Rourke said.
He said the auto bailout saved 1 million jobs in the United States, and “hey, Obama was right.”
In 2009, GM an-nounced the shutdown of Spring Hill and laid off more than 2,000 workers. O’Rourke said the restart
planned to begin next year is an “economic miracle.”
GM., which went through bankruptcy, re-ceived $49.5 billion in the U.S. bailout.
GM has not said which cars will be built at the plant but the jobs are expected to be up and running sometime next year. A top GM executive said Wednesday that the Spring Hill plant will have maximum model fl exibil-ity when assembly is re-started.
The automaker has said it intends to reopen the plant with staffi ng and operating rules still be-ing worked out with the union.
GM Chief Financial Of-fi cer Dan Amman said Wednesday the plant will have fl exibility to make “distinctly different ve-hicles” and be ready to quickly adjust to changing market demand. Amman declined to give a date for the restart or say if there is a limit on entry-level workers.
The automaker has said
it will invest $61 million for one midsize car and add 600 jobs, while it will spend $358 million on another midsize car with 1,100 jobs created.
Under the new contract, GM can have as many entry-level, $15-an-hour workers as it wants. Am-man said after 2015 only 25 percent of the factory workers can be paid the lower wage.
O’Rourke said there will be entry-level workers at Spring Hill but laid off UAW workers will not be pushed aside.
“Nobody gets dis-placed,” he said. “We will get our people who need to get called back called back.”
He said more than 80 percent of the union’s members voted Sept. 23 to approve the contract.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Winning begets winning. Regardless of your starting position, you can create an ex-cellent end result if you stay focused on what’s going right instead of on what’s going wrong.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You don’t have to push yourself to share with others, because your contributions flow effortlessly from you. It brings you such great pleasure to give that you are becoming well known for your generos-ity.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Don’t for-get about that whim you had last week. It is still a good idea, and it is worth investigating further, if not following through to the exciting end.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will do your part to protect, preserve, restore and manage your household. If everyone takes on as much responsibil-ity as you do, your home life will be in tiptop shape.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll enjoy your time with loved ones. You’ve been rushing around so much that you may feel that you haven’t really seen them. Today’s slower pace will give you a chance to openly gaze in appreciation.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today your tidbits come in the form of infor-mation and entertainment and won’t cost you much money to pick up and share. You are constantly combing the scene for something your loved ones would like.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love isn’t going to sneak into your heart and surprise you, and you won’t suddenly discover love. Love is a state that you will co-create with another person. An interesting development happens in a relationship.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). This day will feel like a whole week because its intensity is so turned up. You’ll pack twice as many people and activities into the space of 24 hours, so the day will be broken up into short bursts of your at-tention.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Life will likely improve later, and yet it would be a shame to waste the moment anticipating better days when you could be engaged in the perfectly lovely circumstance happening right now.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It will help you to understand your rights and powers. For instance, without the support of customers, a business will fail. As a paying customer, you have certain rights that you should know and defend.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Each person projects his or her own story onto the situation at hand. Therefore, you can safely assume that however people are reacting to you, it is not per-sonal.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You sometimes assume that what you know is common knowledge, but it really isn’t. That is why it’s important that you teach the people around you, espe-cially if those people happen to be your children.

A friend forwarded an e-mail to me the other day -- at the exact time I needed a good laugh. The quotes are suppos-edly by comedian Will Rogers, and I’ll list a few I particularly liked. If you’re in the right frame of mind, maybe you’ll smile, too.
Never slap a man who’s chewing tobacco.
Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.
There are two theories to arguing with a woman -- neither works.
Never miss a good chance to shut up.
Always drink upstream from the herd.
If you fi nd yourself in a hole, quit digging.
The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
Good judgment comes
from ex-perience, and a lot of that c o m e s from bad j u d g -ment.
I f y o u ’ r e r i d i n ’ ahead of the herd,
take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.
Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier’n puttin’ it back.
Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.
Too many people spend money they haven’t earned, to buy things they don’t want, to impress people they don’t like.
Live in such a way
that you would not be ashamed to sell your family parrot to the town gossip.
We can’t all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.
Everyone is ignorant, only on different sub-jects.
After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roar-ing. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. Moral: When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut!
Have a great weekend.

Never slap a man chewing tobacco
In Robert Service’s poem, “The Cremation Of Sam McGee,” one line reads, “A promise made is a debt unpaid.” Jephthah found out how cruel this debt can be.
In Judges, Old Tes-tament character Je-phthah is described as a mighty warrior, spurned by his countrymen, the Israelites, because he was a prostitute’s son. In self-exile, he honed his martial skills by leading bands of marauders in raids on caravans.
Those skills didn’t go unnoticed by his former countrymen when their bellicose neighbors, the Ammonites, decided to reclaim territory taken from them by the Israel-ites during their Egypt-to-Canaan migration. They no longer cared who Jephthah mama was -- they needed him to take the fi ght to the Ammonites and to lead them afterward.
Surely God wouldn’t let his chosen people lose, but to make sure the Creator was in his corner, Jephthah made a foolish vow: Lord, help me defeat these hea-thens, and when I return in victory, I will sacrifi ce to You the fi rst living creature that emerges from my tent.
Apparently, Jephthah was counting on an ani-mal to be the sacrifi cial victim. To his horror, when the Israelites re-turned from the con-quest, his only child, a daughter, exited the tent and danced before him.
As Samuel John-son said, “We must not promise what we ought not, lest we be called on to perform what we can-not.” Even so, Jephthah performed what he promised, and sacrifi ced his daughter.
Should he have broken his vow, even though it was made to God? Yes, as Ghandi seems to in-dicate when he said, “A vow is fi xed . . . an unal-terable determination to do a thing, when such a determination is related to something noble that can uplift the man who makes the resolve.”
Killing one’s own -- whether before birth or after -- is neither noble nor uplifting. If Je-phthah had confessed to the Lord that he made a foolish vow, he would have been confessing what God already knew. His omniscient Maker understood that the vow was made in haste and not well thought out, and besides, what person hasn’t made a vow to his Creator, but abandoned
it when the storm ahead abated?
Whether made to God or another person, when promises are reasonable they must be kept. Do-ing so develops charac-ter, and carrying through with promises earns re-spect and trust by oth-ers, as when incurring debt. If people of meager means pay debts on time as promised, they are equal to wealthy people whose debts are paid at the appointed time.
Not keeping one’s word leads to the same fate as Aesop’s shep-herd boy who repeatedly cried wolf until no one believed him, and when wolves really did attack, the herd was destroyed. Those who consistently say one thing and do another reach a point where, even when they are truthful, no one be-lieves them.
The Bible is the ulti-mate lesson giver. This is certainly true in the story about Jephthah tragic mistake, which confi rms this truth: A promise made is a debt unpaid.

She says she wants to talk and this scares most men. Not because conversations are unimportant but they often are considered mine fi elds. Serious issues could come up that could spark a tension that lasts for weeks. She might ask about her weight; or her mother or her mother’s weight. And being perfectly honest here; you could say something stupid. So how do know when to be totally transparent and when to shut up? It really depends on the relationship dynamics you have already established with her, but to avoid the minefi eld and enjoy talking to your wife, you might want to be award of a few ground rules. She needs openness about your concerns but she doesn’t need you to weigh every alternative out loud (because frankly some of those alternatives might be somewhat edgy and you don’t want to scare her). She needs to know your heart but not every single thought (like the features that made a woman you noticed at work today attractive). Be honest but not burdensome. Reveal your heart without destroying her sense of security; talk with love and grace constantly assuring her of your love. Floyd Insurance Services, LLC

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 50-year-old female, married 26 years, with three grown children.
When I was 16, I dated a guy, “Oli-ver,” I cared for very much. We got along, never argued and were very close.
The attachment we had I have never ex-perienced since.
Months after we broke up, my mom told me that because we were of different races, she had called Oliver’s parents and told them to keep him away from me because we were getting too close.
We both moved on, but through the years I have thought of him often.
Sixteen months ago, I found him online.
He lives a half-hour away, has two teenagers and is unhappy in his marriage. We spoke on the phone or online for a year. Over the last few months we have been meeting at a nearby park. Our connection is still there. We are soul mates and no longer want to be without each other. And no, we have not had sex.
My husband has been good to me. I love him, but I’m not “in love” with him. I am torn between staying with my husband to honor the commitment to my family, or following my heart with Oliver. I’m in love with him and don’t want to lose him a second time. — ANOTHER CHANCE IN CAL-IFORNIA
DEAR CHANCE: You say you’re torn between your com-mitment to your family or follow-ing your heart. But what about Oliver’s commitment to his fam-ily? Although your children are grown, his aren’t. They still need a father at home.
If the feelings you have carried in your heart all these years for Oliver are more than a fantasy,
they won’t wither if you postpone acting on your feelings.
Are you strong enough to do that? Whether you’re up to the challenge is something only the two of you can decide.
DEAR ABBY: I have a close friend, “Lindy,” who is dying from liver cancer.
She could no longer eat or drink even before the chemo was start-ed, and she sleeps most of the time. The chemo has done noth-ing more for her than make her lose her hair.
Lindy is adamant that she’ll beat the cancer. To that end, she wants nothing “negative” passed on to outsiders, including her rel-atives who live eight hours away. She has no family here except her boyfriend, whom she won’t allow to talk to her doctor. He refuses to go against her wishes.
I am torn between being loyal to my friend’s belief that she’ll get better, or notifying her fam-ily about how sick she really is so they can visit her before she passes.
If they come, Lindy will be fu-rious (if she’s still coherent). But if they don’t have the opportu-nity, it will be unfair to them. My heart tells me to call Lindy’s fam-ily and tell them to consider a visit sooner rather than later. What do you think? — CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE
DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: I think that if Lindy were as close to her family as you imagine, they would have some inkling that she’s ill. That you are aware of her illness shows how much she trusts you and cares for you.
The people who are most impor-tant to her know about her condi-tion, so please respect her wishes.

Something Old by Lela T. Clark
It will soon be the date for the Tishomingo Agricultural High School (TAHS) home-coming. This celebration was begun September 16, 1948. Do you have a clipping of this “Beginning Event?” I do.
Much credit must be given to two Tishomingo people for having the fore-thought, ability, initiative, and love for their home-town and school to orga-nize, advertise and carry out such a wonderful 40th anniversary. These two people were none other than Alvis O. Gray, now de-ceased, and Eufra Owens Blunt.
It was not just an evening “talk fest” and a banquet like we have now, but a series of meetings, concerts, and pic-nics, which lasted through Monday, September 6 — three days.
Special hon-or guests were Mrs. J. O. Looney, wife of the found-er, and two graduates of the fi rst class — W. A. Ow-ens and Ear-nestine Loo-ney Fisher.
Sunday was a day of special memorial ser-vices in all the churches for the boys who had given their lives in the two World Wars.
W.R. Nettles, Superinten-dent of the Tishomingo Con-solidated Schools, gave the welcoming address to hun-dreds of alumni and friends, who had gathered for this three-day celebration of the 40 years of service of this in-stitution.
In my “keep-sake” notes, I found some interesting facts plus some research I did that Prof. J. O. Looney was the founder. The fi rst building was a one-story frame with only one room, which took
care of the “learning of the boys and girls at that time.”
In 1913, the little frame building was blown down by the storm which swept through this part of the country. Temporary build-ings such as churches were used for the student’s class-rooms until another build-ing, a two-story frame with fi ve classrooms, an audito-rium and offi ce, were built.
Soon one dormitory was erected and another started.
The teachers who taught during this period were: Supt. J. O. Looney, Ruth Looney, Lola Looney, Luther Neal, Anna Wren, Mary Waco (Burns), Bill Ar-thur Owens, Rhoda Haney (Stephens), Pearl Reid, Blanch Wynn, Tiny Strick-land, and Edward E. Cohan.

Associated PressNASHVILLE, Tenn. —
Turns out Elvis the King of Rock and Roll spawned Elvis the lawsuit — a whole lotta lawsuits.
It’ll be a hunka hunka re-view of Elvis’ legal cases Tuesday, in Chattanooga, Tenn.
Legal Aid of East Tennes-see is sponsoring a three-hour continuing legal edu-cation session. It’s billed as “Elvis Law. The state and federal cases dealing with the late king of rock ‘n’ roll.”
The presentation is free. Attorneys attending get three
hours toward a required 15 hours of continuing educa-tion each year. To attract at-tention in an email announc-ing the session, the legal aid group showed a famous 1970 photo of Elvis and then-Pres-ident Richard Nixon.
A 10-foot cardboard cutout of Elvis will greet attendees. And a little Elvis music may be played as they mingle be-fore the presentation starts.
“We’re approaching it in a light-hearted way,” said Charlie McDaniel, pro bono project director. Around three dozen attorneys from southeast Tennessee are ex-
pected to attend.“Elvis was fascinating,”
said Russell Fowler, the group’s associate director who will lead the presenta-tion.
“He was not litigious, nev-er sued anybody. He’d fi re someone and then give them $50,000 to be nice. But when he died, litigation sprang from everywhere.”
He said topics will include ownership of Elvis’ name, likeness and image; media access to his autopsy records; disputes over what happened to concert tickets sold before Elvis died, and others.
