Florida begins recovery from Wilma
needed to
pump fuel,
and arguments broke
out when
motorists
tried to cut in line. More than 500 people
waited outside one store for cleanup supplies.
But barely 24 hours after the Category 3
storm struck, there were signs of recovery.
“We have power! We have power!” several
residents of Miami Lakes chanted as they ran
out their back doors when the lights came on.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Repair
crews across Florida struggled Tuesday to
restore electricity to up to 6 million people,
reopen the region’s airports and replace
countless windows blown out of downtown
high-rises during Hurricane Wilma’s ruinous
dash across the state.
Officials said it could take weeks for Florida’s most heavily populated region — the
Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm
Beach area — to return to normal.
Water and gas became precious commodities, and people waited for hours for free
water, ice and food. Lines stretched for blocks
at the few gas stations with the electricity
several counties. Damage estimates ranged
up to $10 billion.
“Tomorrow’s going to be better than today,”
Gov. Jeb Bush said.
Some of the worst damage was in downtown Fort Lauderdale, where Wilma was the
strongest hurricane to strike since 1950.
Winds of more than 100 mph blew out windows in high-rises, many built before Florida
enacted tougher construction codes following Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
The school district’s 14-story headquarters
— known as the “Crystal Palace” — was
stripped of nearly its entire glass facade on

JACKSON, Miss. — John Chambers, president and CEO of Cisco Systems Inc., said a
Mississippi woman whose family lost everything in Hurricane Katrina inspired his company’s $40 million donation to schools affected by the monster storm.
The first $20 million will go to south Mississippi schools to provide wireless Internet
service and other technology services. The
other $20 million will go to schools in other
states affected by the Aug. 29 hurricane.
Chambers announced the donations Tuesday during the annual fall meeting of the
Mississippi Economic Council, the state chamber of commerce.
He said shortly after Katrina, he was
preparing to speak to 5,000 Cisco sales people
in San Francisco when he heard a convention center employee speak in a Southern
accent. Chambers said he asked where she
was from, and she said Mississippi.
He said he immediately asked about her
family.

Rev. Richard Young with Greater First Baptist Church in Escatawpa talks about the extensive
damage to his church and the surrounding neighborhoods. Young is disappointed at the limited financial aid and insurance reimbursement for those who suffered losses during Hurricane Katrina.
MOSS POINT — Nestled between Miss.
63 and Miss. 613 among some of Moss Point’s
most stately oaks, sits a small neighborhood
with some big concerns.
Some residents along Dutch Bayou Road
worry that Hurricane Katrina might have
blown dangerous contaminants their way.
The Rev. Richard Young, pastor of the
Greater First Baptist Church, said the Category 4 storm forced total demolition of the 16year-old red brick church that three months
ago was in celebration.
The church, valued at $450,000, completed
sizable additions on both its east and west
sides. Young said the church’s plan was to
bring a cafeteria, computer and youth center
to a quiet, reclusive neighborhood almost
void of social or recreational activity.
Hurricane Katrina has changed that, for
now.
Immediately after the storm, the church’s
interior was gutted to remove spreading black
mold.
Now it appears the church will have to
come down, Young said.

State jobless rate rises in September State budget hearings
JACKSON (AP) — Mississippi’s unemployment rate
rose to 9.6 percent in September, fueled by a loss of jobs
form Hurricane Katrina, state
officials said.
The state’s jobless rate in
August was 6.9 percent.
There were 59,700 jobs lost
in Mississippi because of Hurricane Katrina, according to
the U.S. Department of Labor,
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Numbers tallied through
Friday show 34,489 Mississippians were collecting
unemployment insurance benefits.
Another 41,955 people were
receiving Disaster Unemployment Assistance, and
34,620 claims were pending,
said Diane Bell, spokeswoman
for the Mississippi Department of Employment Security.
A total of 111,064 have
applied for benefits, Bell said.
The Mississippi adjusted
unemployment rate is 9.1
percent, Bell said. The adjusted rate in August was 7 percent.
An adjusted rate is one that
removes factors such as seasonal employment and other
outdated information to more
accurately reflect the number of claims filed.
The Labor Department
reported Mississippi’s increased filings were second
to Louisiana.
In September, Louisiana’s
jobless rate grew to 11.5 percent from 5.8 percent in
August because of the loss of
251,000 jobs. It was the
largest monthly increase
recorded since the Labor
Department started compiling monthly employment
reports in 1976.
Guard association seeks aid for military families
By HOLBROOK MOHR
The Associated Press
JACKSON — A private National
Guard association is asking for help in
raising money for hundreds of military
families who suffered devastating losses
to Hurricane Katrina.
“Many of these soldiers lost their
homes, the contents, their cars and
almost everything else but worked seven
days a week helping others, despite their
losses,” said retired Brig. Gen. Luke
Goodwin, executive director of the
National Guard Association of Mississippi.
At least 600 Guard families in Mississippi alone were effected by what is now
considered one of the worst natural disasters in U.S. history, said Lt. Andy
Thaggard, a Mississippi National Guard
REGION, 4-A
Fish kills puzzle
Virginia officials
spokesman.
The Defense Department’s Safe Haven
Program offers per diem allowances for
180 days for necessities and shelter for
the families of deployed soldiers, but
many others at home are left struggling
to rebuild their lives on their own.
The National Guard Association of
Mississippi hopes to fill those holes and
has collected more than $100,000 —
mostly from other soldiers — for Guard
families who lost their homes. But, the
organization needs more than twice that
much to help all 350 families who have
applied for assistance, Goodwin said.
“We were a little bit overwhelmed,” he
said.
Maj. Gen. Harold Cross, Mississippi’s
adjutant general, selected a committee to
review the applications and distribute
the money to the most needy families
first, Goodwin said. More than $80,000
has been paid out. Goodwin said every
dollar collected will go directly to Guard
families in need.
“Being a Guard person myself, I know
what sacrifices these people are making,” he said. “So I feel it’s vitally important that we take care of our own.”
Many Guard soldiers had to ignore
their own losses — and put family lives
on hold — while helping other hurricane
victims in what Lt. Col. Tim Powell, a
Guard spokesman, says was the largest
domestic response of Guard troops in
history.
The National Guard Association is not
a military organization, but is made up of
soldiers and retirees who support those
currently in the National Guard.

MISSISSIPPI PRESS HURRICANE HEADQUARTERS: (251) 219-5551, (866) 843-9020
slated for November
By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS
The Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi legislative leaders will hold economic briefings in early November to start planning the state
budget for the year that starts
next July 1.
The big question is how much
Hurricane Katrina will affect
their work.
“There are going to be a lot of
unknowns,” said Lt. Gov. Amy
Tuck, who chairs the Joint Legislative Budget Committee.
Most years, the budget hearings stretch over more than
three weeks in September. The
14 members of the Budget
Committee listen to evaluations
by economists and other financial experts, and hear extensive presentations by everyone
from university presidents to
the state health officer.
The budget hearings were
delayed — then shortened —
this year because of Katrina,
which roared ashore Aug. 29.
Instead of listening to days of
oral presentations from state
agency directors, Budget Committee members will evaluate
written submissions when they
meet Nov. 7-10. They’ll still
have question-and-answer sessions with economists.
The budget briefings are the
start of a lengthy process that
will culminate when the entire
House and Senate vote on a
state spending plan next
spring.
Katrina left tens of thousands of people homeless and
hobbled a large chunk of the
state’s economy, including the
dozen neon-lit casinos that dotted the shoreline along the Gulf
of Mexico.
New state Tax Commission
figures show a significant drop
in casino revenues since the
storm. The decrease was
expected because all the Coast
casinos remain closed. Casinos
along the Mississippi River,
which make up about 55 percent of the state’s gaming market, are still operating.
The Tax Commission figures
show Mississippi collected $27
million in casino taxes in July,
$30.4 million in August and
$16.1 million in September.
Last year, the state collected
$27.5 million in casino taxes in
July, $33.3 million in August
and $24.8 million in September.

Parks’death
urges talk
of fading
history
The Associated Press
The death of Rosa Parks
underscores that the generation
responsible for the key victories
of the civil rights movement is
fading into history, leaving its
survivors with the challenge of
keeping the movement’s memory and work alive even as
today’s youth often seem disengaged.
“As people get older and people pass, it becomes more and
more difficult to have that sort
of firsthand knowledge” of the
fight for integration, said U.S.
Rep. John Lewis, a Georgia
Democrat who first met Parks
as a 17-yearold student
and activist.
Lewis, who
once headed
the Student
Nonviolent
Coordinating
Committee,
added that the
social chalParks
lenges of today
— persistent racial gaps in
poverty, education and wealth,
among others — highlight the
continued need for activists and
teachers to honor Parks’ spirit.
Parks is one of a handful of
civil rights figures, along with
Martin Luther King Jr. and
Malcolm X, whose name most
young people seem to know.
Many are more familiar with
“Rosa Parks,” the hit song by
the hip-hop group OutKast,
than her full story, said Renada
Johnson, a 25-year-old graduate student at Bowie State University in Maryland, who met
Parks in 1997.
“Young people definitely know
who she was, but all we were
taught in school was that she
didn’t get up because her feet
were hurting,” Johnson said.
“They don’t know her whole story,” said Johnson.
In 1955, Parks was a seamstress and longtime secretary
for the local NAACP who defied
segregation laws and refused
to give up her seat in a whitesonly section of a public bus in
Montgomery, Ala.
Then at 42, she inspired tens
of thousands of working-class
blacks — led by King — to boycott the local buses for more
than a year.
The Supreme Court upheld a
lower court ruling that declared
Montgomery’s segregated seating laws unconstitutional.
After she died Monday at age
92, Parks was remembered as a
quiet woman of steely resolve,
whose simple act helped spark
the biggest movement for social
change in American history.

Though Parks became poster child,
earlier ride showed some defiance
By ROY HOFFMAN
©2005 Newhouse News Service
The story of Rosa Parks and
the Montgomery, Ala., bus boycott cannot be fully told without
Claudette Colvin, whose similar
act of resistance was nearly forgotten in history’s shadows.
Nearly nine months before
Parks refused to give up her
seat to a white passenger on a
Montgomery bus, Colvin, a
young black woman, only 15,
was arrested for refusing to get
out of her seat.
But civil rights leaders chose
Parks’ case as the starting point
for the bus boycott.
On the day after Parks’ death,
Colvin, 65, who usually shies
away from media attention, was
willing to talk about how history viewed the two of them.
“The NAACP picked someone
who had the personality and
the character, someone who
would be followed by the adults
and middle-class people,” Colvin
said Tuesday from her home in
the Bronx borough of New York
City. “The youth probably would
have followed me. The students,
they knew we wanted a
change.”
Colvin expressed sadness at
the death of Parks, who was 28
years older: “She was a genteel
lady, and she was able to help
the youth out. I’m glad she took
part and saw the need to help
us. Her life was in helping in
the fight for equality.”
Colvin said that the summer
after she was arrested in March
1955, she joined the NAACP
Youth Council, where Parks was
an adviser. “I told my story to
her group.”
That December, Parks made
headlines when she was arrested.
Fred Gray, the civil rights
attorney who represented both
women, wrote in his autobiography “Bus Ride to Justice”: “On
March 2, 1955, Claudette, a 15year-old high school student,
refused to obey a bus driver’s
order that she relinquish her
seat. She was already at the
back of a bus and refused to
make her seat available to a
white person. When she
remained seated, the bus driver
called police officers, who
dragged her from the bus and

“It was segregation
North, South, East and
West. The only difference in the South, they
had those horrible signs
up there — ‘Colored’
and ‘White.”’
— Claudette Colvin
arrested her.”
Gray represented Colvin, he
wrote, “thinking this well could
be the chance I had been waiting on to challenge the constitutionality of Montgomery’s segregation ordinances and Alabama’s segregation statues.”
The Colvin case, Gray
recounted, “proved a false start,”
but the pattern was in place.
As journalist Frye Gaillard
wrote in “Cradle of Freedom:
Alabama and the Movement
that Changed America”: “Colvin
had cursed her tormentors as
they carried her away, and the
word quickly spread following
her arrest that she was pregnant out of wedlock.”
Reluctantly, Gaillard wrote,
E.D. Nixon, a civil rights leader
in Montgomery, “was compelled
to conclude that this was not
the symbol he was seeking.”
Nixon “knew ... that
Claudette Colvin was ... not
serene or secure in the way of
Mrs. Parks.”
“I was 15 years old,” Colvin
said. “We were made to feel inferior. That was throughout the
South,” but it wasn’t unique to
the South. “It was segregation
North, South, East and West.
The only difference in the
South, they had those horrible
signs up there — ‘Colored’ and
‘White.”’
She pointed out that her
involvement didn’t end when
she was found guilty.
She was one of the plaintiffs
in the suit, Browder vs. Gayle,
filed Feb. 2, 1956, that successfully challenged the constitutionality of bus segregation.
Parks, who was convicted of
disorderly conduct on Dec. 5,
1955, after a 30-minute trial,
was not part of the lawsuit.
As Gray explained in his
book, “I did not include Rosa
Parks as a plaintiff in this case
because I feared a question
would arise in the federal suit
about whether we were trying
to circumvent and enjoin the
criminal prosecution of Mrs.
Parks.”

Katrina cleanup halts Pascagoula projects
By BRAD CROCKER
The Mississippi Press
PASCAGOULA — Forty-eight hours before
Hurricane Katrina made landfall, the city of
Pascagoula put its projects on hold.
And it could be several more months before
the city resumes them and decides whether to let
any contracts.
The city was two weeks into the $1.5 million
retention pond project at I.G. Levy Park, now a
staging area for FEMA trailers. That project took
more than three years to approve and was aimed
at reducing flooding in nearby areas such as
Brookwood subdivision.
Jack Wilson, a resident on Nottingham Street
for nine years, said he understands the delays
brought by Katrina.
“As long as we can keep the rain away, (the city)

Commission
to present
plans in Springs
OCEAN SPRINGS — Ocean
Springs residents will have several opportunities to view city
plans drawn up for the city by
the Governor’s Commission on
Recovery, Rebuilding and
Renewal.
On Thursday, Alderman at
Large Julia Weaver will host
presentations of the plans at
city hall. The presentations will
be held between 8:30 a.m. and
10 a.m. and between 6:30 p.m.
and 7:30 p.m.
Those who attend will be given an opportunity to ask questions and share comments.
The proposals will also be
available for review at the
Ocean Springs Library circulation desk or online at www.mississippirenewal.com/documents/pres_oceansprings.pdf.
A town meeting will then be
held on Nov. 10 at 6 p.m. where

might can get on track before long,” he said.
“There’s not much you can do about it at all.”
Another project that took a backseat was the
$200,000 dredging project for Chateau Lake, also
located in east Pascagoula.
Both projects could resume in 2006, Public
Works Manager Brian Nelson said.
The city has also halted the right-of-way acquisition for the $2 million improvements for Shortcut Road and Chicot Street.
Katrina pushed replacement of the bridge on
Beach Boulevard, from a future project to a priority, Nelson said.
“Now, you can’t even drive on it because parts
are missing,” said Nelson, adding that the nearby bridge on Martin Street was also damaged
and needs attention now.
Nelson said city crews will spend several more
months removing debris, cleaning ditches, repairing damaged streets, fixing equipment and flushing storm and sewer lines. The city has asked for
assistance from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and approved the first phase of a $3 million
sewer cleaning project for south Pascagoula.
The city council also recently approved the
installation of signal lights and signs for the U.S.
90 and 14th Street corridor and a six-month
extension for grounds maintenance.
No contracts have been canceled at this time, a
situation city officials will address as time and
money warrants.
Last week, the council approved a $694,364
claims docket, much of which contained postKatrina costs, including $102,000 for transfer
station repairs; $18,000 for six computers and a
copier/printer; $20,600 for stop signs, $10,400
for various pump filters and $24,000 for debris
removal.
“We’re going to have to have every penny we
can for the crucial things. But right now, we’re just
holding off and watching our overall spending,”
said City Manager Kay Kell. She added that the
city is also looking at how its more than $1 million
in grant-generated projects can still be realized.
“We really are looking at a budget to see where
we’ll be in a couple of months,” Nelson said.
Public works, Nelson added, has received more
public assistance than complaints regarding the
locations of potholes, debris problems and safety
issues around the city.
“They’ve helped us out instead of just getting
uneasy,” he said.

Ocean Springs Aldermen approve $21,000 refund
From Staff Reports
OCEAN SPRINGS — The Ocean
Springs Board of Aldermen approved
the refund of $21,100 in registration
fees for little league football and cheerleading through the Parks and Recreation Department.
The Parks and Recreation Department canceled the Ocean Springs little
league season after Hurricane Katrina battered the city and the rest of the
Gulf Coast on Aug. 29.
This is the first time the department
has had to cancel an entire league, but
the standard practice of the department has been to refund money if
events were canceled or if children had
to withdraw from a program, said
Damian McKay, director of the Parks
and Recreation Department.
According to McKay, the refunds will
be mailed before the end of the month
to the parents of any children who had
registered to cheer or play football for
the city league.
In other business Tuesday night, the
board approved the payment of approx-
imately $1.4 million in hurricane-related expenses from the loan acquired to
pay such expenses until reimbursement
is made by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
The board also granted Mayor Connie
Moran the right to negotiate the lease
agreement with FEMA for two acres
of parking lot and two acres of undeveloped property behind the Ocean
Springs Civic Center to be used as a
temporary housing center for FEMA
trailers.

Stejskal said increasing the
fees will enable the city to
expand or make improvements
to the city’s sewer and water
system. He said putting these
fees on new structures “places
more of the expansion costs on
new customers rather than the
old.”
Approximately 32 percent of
the money from each new
installation can be used for further expansion or other needs
of the sewer and water system.
The rest of the money covers
the direct cost of installation.
During citizen comments,
Paula Vassey said she felt now
is “not the right time” to raise
any fees.
Following a motion by Ward
4 Councilman Don Hansford,
the council requested further
information concerning an
annual charge for fire services,
but approved tap fee increases.
Hansford suggested city officials review the issue further
before deciding whether to
have the charge apply to all
people who have the service or
to new customers only. These
fire services include such
things as sprinkler systems on
properties.

Fish kills
puzzle
Virginia
officials
By BRAD CROCKER
The Mississippi Press
■ Smallmouth bass
fishery devastated
on Shenandoah River
By SUE LINDSEY
The Associated Press
HARRISONBURG, Va. —
State officials want more testing to try to uncover the cause
of massive fish kills on the
Shenandoah River that have
devastated its adult smallmouth bass fishery.
About 80 percent of the popular game fish and redbreast
sunfish were wiped out last
spring on the South Branch of
the Shenandoah in the third
major strike in four years on
rivers in the region.
“This isn’t your classic type of
fish kill,” Stephen Reeser, of
the Virginia Department of
Game and Inland Fisheries,
told some 150 people at a gathering Monday of fishing guides,
environmentalists and industry representatives. “This is
more chronic in nature.”
Game and Inland Fisheries
and the state Department of
Environmental Quality, which
have taken the lead in investigating the kills, said there has
been no change in the water
quality recently, nor evidence
of a virus or parasite.
Reeser said a task force
formed by the two state agencies that includes citizens
groups and industry representatives wants to set up
machines to monitor the river
water continuously next spring.
That would cost $280,000 the
group does not have, but some
task force members hope the
Virginia General Assembly can
be persuaded to provide the
funds. Monitoring now is done
by volunteers who take samples twice a month.
In addition, Reeser said, more
specific testing of fish is needed
to determine whether they have
been the victims of an unknown
virus.
The kills occurred between
April and June when the adult
fish were already under the
stress of spawning. They first
developed lesions that looked
like cigar burns, then died.
Even if no more kills occur,
Reeser estimated that it will
take as long as 10 years for the
river to recover. But many at
the conference said they had
no reason to think such kills
would not recur.
A similar kill occurred in
2004 on the North Fork of the
Shenandoah, and two years
before that on the South
Branch of the Potomac River.
Some at the conference saw the
kills as a danger signal that
other states should heed.
“This is just an omen to the
future of this nation’s water,”
conference participant Dennis
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2005
AP
Joe Maroon, with the Virginia Department of Conservation
and Recreation, speaks at the Fish Kill Conference held at
James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Va., Monday.
Fowler said.
Bob Cramer, a 51-year-old
fishing guide, said he does not
expect to be able to make a living from the Shenandoah
again.
He lost half of his income this
year, he said, and motels in the
region had 60 percent to 70 fewer bookings just from the dropoff in his business, Cramer said.
“The real shame,” he said, “is
that some kid who lives down
on the river is not going to be
able to catch fish.”
Meryl Christiansen of Front
Royal helped found Friends of
the Shenandoah River in 1989
after industrial dumping
caused high levels of mercury in
the fish. High levels of PCBs
also came from industry, he
said, and the river is known to
be high in nutrients.
“We have a river in crisis,”
said Christiansen, an environmental consultant.
The land along the waterways is primarily agricultural,
and one conference participant
from Staunton called the dominant poultry industry “the
800-pound gorilla.” But others
said increasing urbanization
has a role in degradation of the
water.
Joe Maroon of the state
Department of Conservation
and Recreation said it would
be a mistake to wait for government to solve the problem.
“We need to look at ourselves, ... how we treat the
environment,” he said.
The conference at James
Madison University was sponsored by the nonprofit Shenandoah Valley Pure Water Forum.

OPEN MONDAY - FRIDAY
PASCAGOULA — By a 4-2
vote, the Pascagoula City Council Tuesday evening endorsed a
proposed liquefied natural gas
receiving terminal and pipeline
by Gulf LNG Energy to be built
in Bayou Casotte in east
Pascagoula.
Mayor Matthew Avara introduced a draft letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission urging consideration for
“the expeditious permitting of”
the facility and associated
pipeline.
The Tuesday vote means the
letter will be sent to the agency.
In addition to escalating natural gas prices, Avara argued
that the facility would help during the lengthy recovery from
Hurricane Katrina, which hit
the Gulf Coast on Aug. 29.
“The LNG receiving terminal
would provide jobs, taxes and
port revenues to the region as
well as natural gas to the
nation,” the draft letter read.
The council also supports a
similar facility proposed by
Chevron Pascagoula Refinery.
Both Gulf LNG Energy and
Chevron are currently seeking
permits for their facilities.
Councilman Robert Stallworth favored the endorsement,
but was concerned if the council
was acting hastily without first
conducting a public hearing.
City Attorney Melvin Mitchell
said the move Tuesday was not
legally binding. Mitchell, who
has a chemical engineering
degree, said “scare tactics” have
been presented in previous public hearings on the issue.
Councilman George Wolverton, who has previous work
experience in the oil industry,
opposed the council’s action.
He argued that “what they
have failed to do is inform the
public” on issues of safety, and
environmental concerns regarding an LNG terminal presence
in the city.
Alderman at Large Bill Jones
also opposed the council’s action.
Councilman Keith Belcher was
absent.

Hurricanes hurt Northrop profits
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP)
— Hurricane damage to Gulf
of Mexico shipyards battered
Northrop Grumman’s thirdquarter earnings, the company
reported Tuesday, while fellow
defense contractor Lockheed
Martin said it had higher quarterly profits across its space,
information technology and aircraft divisions.
Despite the mixed sector
results, the companies said
their earnings were helped by
business segments outside of
big military hardware — such
as fighter jets and aircraft carriers — for which they are perhaps best known. Government
IT and electronics sales, for
example, rose for both.

the Normal, Ill., police station Friday
NORMAL, Ill. (AP) — The search for a missing
college student from Nigeria may have reached
a critical point, as officials in Mississippi waited
Tuesday for medical and dental records to determine whether a body found in
a burnt-out chicken house
could be that of 21-year-old
Olamide Adeyooye.
The body was found Friday
morning near Interstate 20 in
the central part of the state,
Delores Lewis, a Mississippi
Department of Public Safety
spokeswoman said in a statement. Firefighters put out a
blaze in the chicken house four Adeyooye
days earlier, and workers
found the body as they were cleaning up the
site, the statement said.
Mississippi authorities notified Normal investigators about an unidentified woman’s body
Monday in response to a nationwide alert seeking Adeyooye and her car, Kotte said. The car, a
green 1996 Toyota Corolla with Illinois license
LBG927, remains missing.
Elsewhere, investigators continued to interview
several “persons of interest” in a case that gained
attention through an Internet campaign
launched by Adeyooye’s friends.
The popular senior at Illinois State University had been studying laboratory sciences and
biology, and was due to graduate in December.
She was last seen nearly two weeks ago at a
video store near her apartment in Normal, a
college town in central Illinois.
A native of Nigeria who moved to suburban
Chicago when she was 8, Adeyooye had planned
to return to the Chicago area to complete her clinical training at a hospital.
Since her disappearance on Oct. 13, Adeyooye’s family also has been a constant presence
in Normal, helping police search for Adeyooye
there.
There have been vigils at Illinois State, at
Olamide’s former high school in suburban Chicago and at a site near her boarded-up apartment
and train tracks, where investigators found personal items belonging to her.
Man faces trial for DVD counterfeiting
HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP)
— A Jan. 3 trial has been scheduled for a man accused of running an international counterfeit DVD ring.
Randolph Hobson Guthrie III

criminal charges in the case.
Guthrie remains free on a $1

appearance in Los Angeles.
The U.S. attorney’s office said
Guthrie will remain under electronic monitoring with an ankle

Cheney again at center of firestorm
By RON FOURNIER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — It
should surprise nobody that
Vice President Dick Cheney
is at the center of another
firestorm. He’s got his hands
in just about everything at
the White House.
Now the administration’s
Mr. Fix-It faces a sticky political, if not legal, situation
with the latest leak in the
CIA leak investigation.
“His name is thrown into
the mix,” said Stephen Hess,
a presidential scholar and
political analyst at the Brookings Institution. “Big time.”
Cheney once called a New
York Times reporter a “big
time” expletive. The same
newspaper reported Tuesday
that notes taken by Cheney
chief of staff I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby suggest that the
vice president learned about
CIA officer Valerie Plame
from then-CIA Director
George Tenet, then passed
the information to Libby in a
June 12, 2003 conversation.
While it is not against the
law for three
high-level
officials to
discuss the
identity of a
CIA agent,
the conversation is part of
Special Counsel Patrick
Cheney
Fitzgerald’s
investigation
of whether crimes were committed when Plame’s name
was leaked to journalists.
The New York Times, quoting unidentified lawyers
involved in the case, said Libby’s notes differed from his
grand jury testimony. Libby
reportedly told grand jurors
he learned Plame’s name
from reporters.
There is nothing in the
public record to suggest that
Cheney, like perhaps Libby
and deputy White House
chief of staff Karl Rove, pointed reporters toward the CIA
official in conversations about
her husband, diplomat Joe
Wilson.

House’s brass-knuckle political culture — and Cheney’s
role in it.
The latest disclosure also
raises fresh questions about
the vice president’s credibility, long-ago frayed by inaccurate or questionable statements on Iraq.
Cheney told NBC on Sept.
14, 2003, that he didn’t know
who sent Wilson on a mission
to Niger to explore claims
that Iraq was seeking nuclear
material. “He never submitted a report that I ever saw
when he came back,” Cheney
said at the time. “I don’t
know Mr. Wilson. I probably
shouldn’t judge him. I have
no idea who hired him.”
He made those remarks
months after the reported
conversations with Tenet and
Libby, where he would have
learned about Wilson and his
wife.

FEMA rejects Georgia’s request for housing payments
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Georgia officials are accusing
the federal government of
shortchanging their efforts to
find homes for families displaced by Hurricane Katrina,
and some cities have indicated
they might not be able to help
because they can’t afford it.
A month ago, the state sent
the Federal Emergency Management Agency a laundry list
of reimbursements Georgia
cities are expecting in exchange
for helping Gulf Coast families
relocate. But to the surprise of
city and state officials, FEMA
rejected two of the largest
requests, halting some local
efforts.
“FEMA obviously has the
money because they’re spending it on hotels and cruise
ships,” said Robbie Ashe, an
aide to Mayor Shirley Franklin.
“We can’t understand why they
won’t spend it in more efficient
and effective ways. It’s one of
those classic examples of
bureaucracy defeating its own
purpose. It’s frankly quite sad.”
FEMA’s regional office in
Atlanta referred questions to
the Washington headquarters,
but calls there Monday were
not immediately returned.
In one request to FEMA,
Georgia asked that a local government be reimbursed up to
one and a half times the fair
market value for each rental
property it buys, based on a
formula by the Department of
Housing and Urban Development. State officials said they
asked for that because of a
shortage of housing in metro
Atlanta, which has driven
prices up.
The Atlanta Chamber of
Commerce estimates it costs
$1,300 a month for rent and
utilities on an average two-bedroom apartment in the metro
area. FEMA’s reimbursement
would top out around $1,000,
Ashe said.
“Fair market value has
become increasingly divorced
over time,” Ashe said. “It
sounds a whole lot better than
it is.”
Another request rejected by
FEMA would have paid a local
government a one-time fee of
$1,000 per family to compensate the government for labor
costs in the housing search.
That’s the same amount FEMA
currently pays HUD to find
new homes for Katrina evac-

But in an Oct. 14 letter to

amount to an “incentive,” and

from criticism over mentioning an Iraq-nuclear connection in his State of the Union
address.
Wilson was a threat, and
Bush’s advisers had reason to
doubt his credibility.
So they sprang into action.
Fitzgerald will soon decide
whether to file charges or
write the episode off to what
Hess calls typical Washington
“malicious gossip.”
“Cheney had a conversation
with his chief of staff. They
talked about something that
was bothering them. ... He
asked the director of the CIA
what gives, and they had a
conversation. All of this
seems to be the way you’d
expect people to do business.
Yada, yada, yada — and so
we go,” Hess said.
In purely political terms,
the question is whether the
public will be as blase about
the White House response to
Wilson once the whole story
is out.
Or whether they will lose
faith in the president and his
Mr. Fix-It.

U.S. military death toll in Iraq hits 2,000
By ROBERT H. REID
The Associated Press
BAGHDAD, Iraq — The
American military death toll in
the Iraq war reached 2,000 Tuesday with the announcements of
three more deaths, including an
Army sergeant who died of
wounds at a military hospital in
Texas and a Marine and a sailor
killed last week in fighting west
of Baghdad.
The 2,000 mark was reached
amid growing doubts among the
American public about the Iraq
conflict, launched in March 2003
to destroy Saddam Hussein’s
alleged weapons of mass destruction. None was ever found.
In Washington, the U.S. Senate observed a moment of silence
in honor of the fallen 2,000. “We
owe them a deep debt of gratitude for their courage, for their
valor, for their strength, for their
commitment to our country,” said
Republican Majority Leader Bill
Frist.
“Our armed forces are serving
ably in Iraq under enormously
difficult circumstances, and the
policy of our government must

casualties in the fight against
“as brutal an enemy as we have
ever faced, unconstrained by any
notion of common humanity and
by the rules of warfare.”
“No one should underestimate
the difficulties ahead,” Bush said
in a speech Tuesday before the
Joint Armed Forces Officers’
Wives’ luncheon in Washington.
As a sign of those challenges,
one of Iraq’s most ruthless terror
groups — al-Qaida in Iraq —
claimed responsibility for Monday’s suicide attacks against
hotels housing Western journalists and contractors in Baghdad,
as well as suicide bombings Tuesday in northern Iraq.

Iraq death toll many times higher
than United States since invasion
The Associated Press
AP
Iraqi Sunnis grieve during
the funeral of two men
who were shot by Iraqi
police. The number of
Iraqis who have died
since the U.S.-led invasion
could reach 30,000.
The number of Iraqis who
have died violently since the
U.S.-led invasion is many times
larger than the U.S. military
death toll of 2,000 in Iraq. In
one sign of the enormity of the
Iraqi loss, at least 3,870 were
killed in the past six months
alone, according to an Associated Press count.
One U.S. military spokesman
said it is possible the figure for
the entire war could be 30,000
Iraqis, which many experts see
as a credible estimate. Others
suspect the number is far higher, since the chaos in Iraq
leaves the potential for many
killings to go unreported.
The losses are far larger than
most analysts and Pentagon
planners expected before the
war and mean Iraqi civilians
are bearing most of the suffering.
“We may never know the true
number of the Iraqi public that
has been killed or injured in
this war,” said the U.S. military spokesman in Baghdad,
Lt. Col. Steve Boylan. “The
Iraqi public has taken the
brunt of the casualties.”
Every day claims more victims: A car bomb targeting
American troops that kills Iraqi
passers-by. An insurgent attack
on a police station. Sectarian
militias dumping blindfolded
corpses in the Euphrates River.
Civilians made up more than
two-thirds of the Iraqis killed in
war-related violence since the
country’s first elected government took power on April 28,
according to the AP count. The
rest were Iraqi security personnel.
Boylan said the U.S. military
keeps its own tally of Iraqi
dead, but does not release it.
He said he had asked U.S.
authorities to see the estimates
of Iraqi dead himself, and was
refused.
But he suggested an estimate
from Iraq Body Count, a British
anti-war group that has compiled a death toll based on
media reports, appeared credible. The group estimated that
from 26,690 to 30,051 Iraqi
civilians were killed, or roughly 1,000 per month in the 30
months since the war began.

in fighting last week in a village
25 miles west of Baghdad. Those
announcements brought the U.S.
death toll to 2,000, according to
figures compiled by The Associated Press.
It was unclear who was the
2,000th service member to die in
Iraq since the U.S. military often
delays death announcements
until families are notified. On
Monday, for example, the U.S.
command announced that an
unidentified Marine was killed
in action the day before — after
the deaths of the three service
members reported Tuesday.
In an e-mail statement to
Baghdad-based journalists, command spokesman Lt. Col. Steve
Boylan said media attention on
the 2,000 figure was misguided
and “set by individuals or groups
with specific agendas and ulterior motives.”
He described the grim statistic
as an “artificial mark on the wall”
and urged news organizations to
focus more on the accomplishments of the U.S. military mission in Iraq.
For example, Iraqi officials
announced Tuesday that voters
had approved a new constitution
in the Oct. 15 referendum, laying
the foundation for constitutional,
democratic Iraqi government
after decades of Saddam’s tyranny.
“I ask that when you report
on the events, take a moment to
think about the effects on the
families and those serving in
Iraq,” Boylan wrote. “The 2,000
service members killed in Iraq
supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom is not a milestone.”
Boylan said the 2,000th service
member to die in Iraq “is just as
important as the first that died
and will be just as important as
the last to die in this war against
terrorism and to ensure freedom
for a people who have not known
freedom in over two generations.”
He complained that the true
milestones of the war were
“rarely covered or discussed,”
including the troops who had volunteered to serve, the families
of those that have been deployed
for a year or more, and the Iraqis
who have sought at great risk to
restore normalcy to their country.

Health ministers plan defense against bird flu
By BETH DUFF-BROWN
The Associated Press
OTTAWA — Canada’s prime
minister on Tuesday stressed
the importance of helping
Southeast Asian nations fight
bird flu as health ministers
from around the world said the
first line of defense against a
pandemic is at the region’s
poultry farms, while the second line may come down to
ethics and politics.
At a two-day conference that
began Monday, some officials
discussed whether they might
have to break international
patent regulations to produce
generic versions of Tamiflu —
one of the only drugs effective
against the virus — if it came
down to saving their civilians.
“A suggestion that’s being
made by some countries is that
there are countries that have
the capacity to manufacture the
vaccine, that we actually need
to assist them with technology
transfers,” Canada’s Health
Minister Ujjal Dosanjh told a
news conference. He said technology transfers was “a euphemism for loosening the patent
laws.”
He was referring to India,
whose health officials are
weighing whether there is
enough risk of bird flu spreading in their impoverished
nation to invoke a licensing
clause to lift Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche’s
patent of Tamiflu.
The drug is one of only two
believed to be effective against
the H5N1 strain of bird flu,
which has killed 62 people in
Asia since 2003.
“It may not be resolved here,
but there are countries out
there that are saying they will
defy patent protections — and
we couldn’t be judgmental if
people are dying,” Dosanjh said.
The World Trade Organization in 2003 decided to allow
governments to override
patents during national health
crises, though no member state
has yet invoked the clause.
Ministers from 30 countries
and the heads of the World
Health Organization and U.N.
Food and Agriculture Organization at the conference said
containing the avian flu that
has hit Vietnam and Thailand
the hardest was the top priority.
Most recently, Russia,
Turkey, Britain and Romania
have reported the disease in
birds.
“Our first line of defense
should be attacking the problem at the poultry level,” Dr.
Alejandro Thiermann, adviser
to the director general of the
World Organization for Animal
Health, said at the opening session Monday.
“So far, it is our opinion that
the international community
has drastically underinvested
in the veterinary infrastructure
required to support this vitally
important program.”
Before the officials went into
closed sessions for most of Tuesday, Canadian Prime Minister
Paul Martin emphasized the
importance of helping Southeast Asian nations.
“The simple fact is that many
impoverished families and
farmers may consider it too
risky to report sick animals —
they’re the source of their food
as well as their livelihood, so
it’s often customary to kill animals that get sick, to be eaten
or sold,” he said.
“When sicknesses are reported in these areas, local officials
often lack the capacity to
respond,” he added.
Martin also said the current
meeting would help governments respond better to potential calamities such as “other
emerging diseases, to natural
disasters and to threats of
bioterrorism we may face in the
future.”

U.S., France,
Britain tell
Syria to help
with probe
■ Government
officials suspected
in assassination
UNITED NATIONS (AP) —
The United States, France and
Britain on Tuesday demanded
that Syria detain government
officials suspected of involvement in the assassination of a
former Lebanese prime minister
and ensure their cooperation
with a U.N. probe or face possible sanctions.
The call was contained in a
draft resolution that orders Syria to make the officials or individuals “fully and unconditionally available” to the U.N. investigating commission.
It states that Syria must allow
the commission to interview
Syrians that it considers relevant to the inquiry “outside Syria and/or outside the presence of
any other Syrian official if the
commission so requests.”
If Syria does not fully cooperate with the investigation, the
draft says the council intends
to consider “further measures”
to ensure compliance, including
sanctions.
The draft resolution also calls
for anyone designated by the
commission as suspected of
involvement in Hariri’s assassination to be subject to a travel
ban and to have their assets
frozen.
The proposed resolution
would be under Chapter VII of
the U.N. Charter which is militarily enforceable.
The United States and France
circulated the resolution hours
after the chief U.N. investigator, Detlev Mehlis, briefed the
council on his report which
implicated top Syrian and
Lebanese security officials in
the car bomb that killed Hariri
and 20 other people.
Mehlis has said repeatedly
that Syria had not fully cooperated and continuing the probe
would be near impossible if
Damascus didn’t change course.
He took that message directly
to the council in his briefing,
urging Syria to help “fill in the
gaps” about who orchestrated
the bombing, both by cooperating with a probe and studying
the crime itself.
The draft resolution declares
that “it is unacceptable that anyone should escape accountability for an act of terrorism because
of his own obstruction of the
investigation or failure to cooperate in good faith.”
It would endorse the Mehlis
commission’s conclusion “based
on Syria’s suspected involvement in this terrorist act and
lack of adequate cooperation to
the inquiry to date, that it is
incumbent upon the Syrian
authorities to clarify a considerable part of the questions
which remain unresolved.”
Under the draft’s provisions,
Syria would also be required to
renounce terrorism and “commit itself definitively to cease
all support for all forms of terrorist action and all assistance to
terrorist groups and to demonstrate this undertaking through
concrete actions.”
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton
said the Security Council would
hold a meeting on Monday at
ministerial level to consider the
resolution. U.N. diplomats said
they expect the ministers to
adopt the resolution, which
would give added weight to the
measure and increase pressure
on Syria.

Our Opinion
Rosa Parks,
1913-2005
There are certain people, the unexpected sort, as
U.S. Rep. John Lewis of Georgia reminded on
Wednesday, that the “spirit of history” taps on the
shoulder.
In 1955, that spirit offered a seat on a Montgomery, Ala., bus to a soft-spoken, black 42-yearold seamstress.
Her name was Rosa Parks.
But what made Parks one of America’s most
important figures is that once she sat down in a
seat “for whites only,” she would not be moved, no
matter what the laws of Jim Crow segregation
said.
Rosa Parks had seen enough and heard enough
hatred and discrimination. And she would not
move. She was arrested, later convicted and fined
$14. Her quiet determination sparked the Montgomery bus boycott, which catapulted a young
minister, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., to
national prominence.
Montgomery, the South, the nation and the
world would be forever changed.
Nine years earlier, when Jackie Robinson broke
baseball’s color barrier, it was said he was the right
person to send tumbling down the wall of racism in
baseball. Robinson was college educated, well spoken, a dogged competitor.
And while there had been other bus boycotts,
notably the peacefully resolved Baton Rouge bus
boycott, Rosa Parks’ quiet courage in Montgomery
captured the attention of the white national
media, putting civil rights smack on the front page
of major American newspapers.
She was a pillar in her church. But her “life history,” she told author Howell Raines in “My Soul Is
Rested,” prepared her for the landmark moment.
Active in the NAACP, Parks had been invited to
the Highlander Folk School in Tennessee, an integrated retreat.
“That was the first time in my life I had lived in
an atmosphere of complete equality with members
of the other race ...,” she said. “I felt it could be
done without the signs that said ‘White’ and ‘Colored’ — well, without any artificial barriers of
racial segregation.”
A few months later, history offered Rosa Parks a
seat on the bus. And she would not move.
Rest in peace, Mrs. Parks.
Other Opinion
Writers and editors
While waiting for prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald to indict (or not) someone in the Plamegate
scandal, critics have turned their ire on Judith
Miller. Miller is the reporter for The New York
Times who spent 85 days in jail rather than
reveal a source linked to the affair. In the weeks
since I. Lewis Libby, the vice president’s chief of
staff, evidently freed Miller from her promise of
confidentiality, she has increasingly come under
attack.
Papers must protect their reporters. An important public interest is served whenever people
feel that they can safely share information with
the media. But the Times’s own recent report on
the case, along with Miller’s published account,
has raised questions about whether the paper or
its reporter followed sound journalistic practices.
The report revealed a failure of editors to keep
Miller in line — even after she had been forbidden to keep working on stories about Iraq and
weapons of mass destruction. In a memo to staff
members last week, Executive Editor Bill Keller
said he regretted not having questioned her more
closely before the paper threw itself into a fullthrottle defense. In not supervising her as it
should have, The Times damaged its own credibility.
Miller’s weakness, it appears is a tendency to
let herself be used by her sources...She carried
water for an administration intent on proving
that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, with
a story The Times later had to retract. She never
did write a story about the leak of CIA operative
Valerie Plame’s name. Miller asserts she urged
The Times to do a story on the leak; her boss at
the time, Jill Abramson, insists that no such
request was made.
Much of the outcry has to do with The Times’s
vast sense of its own importance. But in its bare
bones, this is a story about a problem employee.
It would be unfortunate if it were taken as a sign
that all mainstream media are untrustworthy, or
that anonymous sources are invariably bad. The
truth is that what these sources say must be
weighed with special care. Good journalism
requires a blend of trust and skepticism, one that
begins between reporter and source, but extends,
crucially, to the relationship between reporter
and editor.

No compassion in the
welfare-warfare state
By CHRIS POWELL
The Providence Journal
MANCHESTER, Conn. — Hurricane
winds blew the roof off New Orleans
and exposed to a national audience the
racially disproportionate poverty
underneath. So now there are calls for
a new national examination of poverty.
These calls come mainly from Democrats and others on the political left, and
may arise more from political opportunism than from a desire to right any
public-policy wrongs.
But Republicans and the right should
heed them, for the country’s failure
with poverty is more a failure of commission than omission, more a failure
of those who complain about it than
those who have been indifferent to it.
Yes, supposed conservatives love the
government’s failure with poverty. It is
the rationalization not only for their
indifference but also for their cynicism
about all of government, and for the
looting of the country through tax
reductions skewed toward wealth and
financed with borrowed money.
“We had a war on poverty,” Ronald
Reagan remarked sardonically, “and
poverty won.”
The problem is that poverty’s victory
was also government’s victory, and that
was fine with the political left and with
Democrats generally, the party of government.
Huge bureaucracies of the “helping
professions” have been constructed in
the name of eradicating poverty, and
those bureaucracies have been largely
left in place through the current administration.
Yet the government’s own figures
show that the percentage of the population living in poverty is increasing.
That is, Reagan was right; poverty
policy hasn’t worked and isn’t working.
Indeed, like the war on drugs, the war
on poverty has never even been meant
to be won. Rather, it has been meant to
be waged, to the great profit of those
waging it so unsuccessfully.
But must the choice be only between
giving up or doing more of what has
failed? What about trying something
different? What about a war on childbearing outside marriage, which welfare policy subsidizes, even though it is
the main cause of poverty?
Instead of subsidizing childbearing
outside marriage, why not subsidize
medical insurance for all through their
employers on the basis of income,
thereby guaranteeing full coverage for
the working poor, giving them more of
an incentive to work, and raising their
standard of living?
Instead of injecting fantastic wealth
into the drug trade through contraband
law — and thus luring the poor outside
the law, where so many individuals and
families are destroyed by violence and
the criminal-justice system, making
cities uninhabitable in the process —
why not medicalize the drug problem,
giving drugs to addicts by prescription
while making rehabilitation universally
available?
Poverty is worsening not for lack of
public expenditure but for government’s
refusal to audit poverty policy — a
refusal arising from the comfortable life
the government class has built from
that policy.
Poverty endures because Republicans
don’t care and Democrats just pretend
to care. But there’s another reason why
government persists in failure in poverty policies and other policies, such as
the adventure in Iraq: Much of it is also
deficit spending, the spending of borrowed money, nobody’s money — or,
really, the money of foreigners, who are
financing the United States, buying the
government bonds of a country that is
effectively bankrupt, and the money of
future generations, who will be stuck
with an unpayable debt, a debt that
will sink their currency, the dollar.
When Congress appropriated $52 billion the other day for relief of the hurricane-stricken areas in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, there really wasn’t a lot of compassion involved, for all
the money was simply borrowed, conjured out of thin air, as if anything of
real value could be created by mere
desire.
In appropriating for the relief effort,
Congress gave not a thought to raising
the money by taxation or by economizing elsewhere in government, not a
thought to making choices and sacrifices.
No member of Congress proposed
reviewing the highway legislation
enacted just a few weeks before, with
its billions of “earmarks,” patronage
appropriations for construction projects
for which there was little public need.
Few proposed postponing the Bush
administration’s tax reductions.
And of course no one proposed postponing the latest round of salary
increases for members of Congress,
which now occur automatically, without
recorded vote.
No, when it comes to public spending,
no choices have to be made in the United States anymore. Republicans don’t
have to contemplate whether America
can afford the adventure in Iraq and
whether it is working, and Democrats
don’t have to reconsider poverty policy.
Deficit spending underwrites what
Rep. Ron Paul, R.-Texas, has called “the
welfare/warfare state,” policies the public would never endorse if they had to
be financed out of real current incomes.
All this may not be surprising; it may
be only the ordinary corruption of
empire in arrogance, greed and sloth.
But foreigners could pull the plug on it
at any moment — not merely by declining to continue financing the United
States, but by declining to increase
their financing to match the increase in
U.S. profligacy.
There are signs that the foreigners
are already wising up. When they do,
the dollar may collapse and there may
be hyperinflation, soaring interest
rates, capital controls, shortages, and
dislocations that will make the recent
hurricanes seem like a sun shower.
Chris Powell is managing editor of
The Journal Inquirer, in Manchester,
Conn.
Near the end of his magnificent book,
“1776,” historian David McCullough writes
this about George Washington: “He was not a
brilliant strategist or tactician, not a gifted
orator, not an intellectual. At several crucial
moments he had shown marked indecisiveness. He had made serious mistakes in judgment.”
Sound familiar? That’s what critics of
today’s “George W.” say about him.
McCullough concludes, “But experience had
been (Washington’s) great teacher from boyhood, and in this his greatest test, he learned
steadily from experience.”
Has the contemporary “George W.” learned
from experience?
In what could be a critical week for the
Bush administration, special counsel Patrick
Fitzgerald may indict top White House aide
and political guru Karl Rove, along with Vice
President Cheney’s chief of staff and a chief
strategist in the war in Iraq, I. Lewis “Scooter”
Libby.
If that happens, the media and their ideological friends in the Democratic Party might
raise the ghost of Richard Nixon, asserting
whatever errors, indiscretions or illegalities
these men may have committed are akin to
Watergate.
That probably won’t fly for long and the
Democrats, given their recent history of
defending Bill Clinton from moral and ethical
indiscretions (including lying under oath),
don’t have much credibility in that area.
But even though the Democrats are in disarray and have no moral standing or ideas, it’s
not an excuse for the White House to ride out
potentially bad publicity and refuse to do
something to halt the continuing slide in public approval ratings.
What to do? First, the president should
shake up his staff, bringing in new people who
have vision, experience and unquestioned
integrity. Then, he should say what he thinks
it means to be a conservative Republican,
which once meant smaller, cheaper and less
intrusive government. Under Republicans, the
cost and reach of government have expanded,
including gobs of new money for education
and new entitlement programs that would
shame a New Dealer. A real conservative
would at least try to reverse this trend, even if
he fails.
The president should announce something
dramatic regarding the war in Iraq. He should
speak about America’s objective as victory,
instead of the withdrawal of U.S. troops once
Iraqi forces are ready to take over.
As military historian and American Enterprise Institute scholar Frederick W. Kagan
writes in this week’s The Weekly Standard:
“The measure of success is not the number of
’trained’ Iraqi battalions available, but the
defeat of the insurgency. Both the strategy
and the message must be: America will not
leave Iraq until the Sunni Arabs, and all other
groups and ethnicities, have abandoned the
hope that violence will lead to political advantage.”
To that end, the president should announce
a plan to increase the size of the Army, which,
as Kagan writes, could and should have been
done as early as 2001. If it had been done as
late as 2003, new troops would now be available to help crush the Sunni-Arab opposition
and to persuade them we have no intention of
withdrawing until the job is complete. They
have based their hopes on America cutting
and running.
Following through on his pledge to do something serious about illegal immigration would
also go a long way to rekindling the fire of support for the president that is in danger of
going out in many conservative bellies.
If Harriet Miers withdraws her name for
consideration as a Supreme Court Justice, or
if her nomination is defeated in the Senate, a
known conservative would be just the ticket
for rousing the base from its growing disgust.
President Bush must redefine himself publicly and for his own sake. What does he see
beyond the face in the mirror and beneath the
words others write for him? Where are his
convictions and positions on which he will not
compromise or falter? The contemporary
“George W.” must constantly restate what is
at stake domestically and in the war against
radical Islam and he must never give up or
compromise these principles.
Concerning that other “George W.,” McCullough writes, “Above all, Washington never
forgot what was at stake and he never gave
up.”
A lot is riding on whether this “George W.”
has that same attitude and vision.

Panel approves
$10 billion cut
in spending
By KEVIN FREKING
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A Republican-led effort to slow spending
on health care programs for
the poor, elderly and disabled
survived a stern test in the
Senate Tuesday.
That chamber ’s Finance
Committee, voting along party
lines, approved legislation that
would trim overall spending on
Medicare and Medicaid by
about $10 billion over five
years. The committee’s 11
Republicans supported the legislation. The committee’s nine
Democrats opposed it.
In doing so, Democrats cited what they believed was
inadequate assistance for victims of Hurricane Katrina. In
particular, Democrats wanted
to temporarily extend Medicaid coverage to thousands of
people currently ineligible for
the program even though they
have lost their jobs and their
home.
“Eight weeks ago yesterday,
Katrina made landfall. Eight
weeks ago today, the levees
broke. And eight weeks later, I
cannot in good conscience join
in cutting health care, when
Congress has left the health
care needs of Katrina’s victims
unaddressed,” said Sen. Max
Baucus of Montana, the top
Democrat on the Finance Committee.
Republicans said they
weren’t thrilled with the bill,
either, mainly because they
said it did not go far enough
to overhaul Medicaid, the
nation’s health insurance program for the poor. But they
rejected the notion that beneficiaries would get a reduced
level of care as a result of the
changes they approved.
“We are not cutting health
care services to the beneficiaries,” said Sen. Rick Santorum,
R-Pa. “We have squeezed some
fraud out. We have squeezed
providers.”
The legislation reflected the
difficult balancing act facing
the committee’s chairman, Sen.
Charles Grassley, R-Iowa.
Grassley had to maintain
support from all 11 committee
Republican to ensure the measure’s passage. But some wanted more significant reductions
in Medicaid than others were
willing to accept.
In the end, the legislation
the panel approved Tuesday
would reduce Medicare spending by about $5.8 billion over
five years and Medicaid by
about $4.3 billion during that
time.
Even with those reductions,
however, the Congressional
Budget Office projects that
financing of the two programs
would grow substantially over
the coming five years.
The CBO predicts Medicaid
spending will increase from
about $192 billion in 2006 to
about $260 billion in 2010.

“She said, ’My family is OK,
John, but we lost everything,”’
Chambers recalled.
He said as tears welled in
the woman’s eyes, she asked
him: “’Could you mention us
in your presentation to your
5,000 people?”’
Chambers said the woman
— whose name he never
learned — also told him his
company could make a big difference in hurricane recovery.
Cisco is the world’s largest
maker of computer networking gear.
Chambers said the United
States is falling behind many
other countries in education.
He said he sees Mississippi,
which ranks near the bottom of
many education listings, as a
place where improvements are
needed and will be welcomed.
Chambers said an initial $20
million is earmarked for seven
individual schools or districts
— five of those in the Hattiesburg area. The company said
the schools were selected
because they sustained some
damage from the hurricane,
but they were not destroyed
and could be rebuilt quickly.
The schools are Forrest
County Agricultural High
School, with 500 students; Forrest County School District,
2,400 students; Hattiesburg
School District, 4,700 students;
Lamar County School District,
7,200 students; Petal School
District, 3,700 students; Moss
Point High School, 900 students; and Harrison Central
High School, 800 students.
The schools will receive money to improve technology,
online curriculum and professional development, the company said.
Another $20 million, the
company said, would be made
available over the next two to
three years to other states for
school systems devastated by
Katrina. A company spokeswoman said specific decisions
will be made later about where
the second $20 million will be
spent.
Melvia Fountain, principal
of Hattiesburg’s Rowan Elementary School, said the Cisco
donations will make her students “productive citizens in a
global society.” She said most of
her students come from economically struggling families
who can’t afford computers.
“Because they don’t get that
at home, we at school have to
provide all we can. And we’ve
been doing that with limited
funds,” Fountain said.
Katrina caused billions of
dollars of damage throughout
south Mississippi. State Superintendent of Education Hank
Bounds said the storm
destroyed 16 schools, severely
damaged 24 and caused less
extensive damage to 263 others.
The hurricane also destroyed
about $40 million of computers and other technology
equipment, $40 million worth
of textbooks and $235 million
of teaching supplies in the public schools, Bounds said.
Bounds said while those losses need to be replaced, education programs throughout Mississippi need improvement.
“Obviously, the perception of
public education is not where
you want it,” Bounds told
about 1,000 people at the MEC
gathering. “The only way you
can change perception is to
change reality.”

Dutch Bayou
From Page 1-A
To the east of the church, homeowners are
doing much of the same, gutting interiors.
Because of possible lurking environmental
dangers, Young is pushing for an assessment to
be conducted on soil there before homes and
churches rebuild.
If there’s a heavy concentration of contamination, Young wants the federal government
to step in with a recovery assistance program,
without cost to property owners.
What worries Young most is Dutch Bayou
Road’s is close proximity to the former Morton
International chemical plant. The company, a
subsidiary of Rohm and Haas, settled an environmental pollution lawsuit in 2000 for $20
million.
Dutch Bayou also is home to Mississippi Gulf
Coast Wastewater Authority’s sewage treatment plant and is not too far away from a pogey
processing plant and an incinerator that burns
garbage to produce electricity.
“History will record Hurricane Katrina as
the worst flood or hurricane that ever hit America. It won’t record the diseases or germs left in
these buildings that we’ve patched up and covered up for the folks to breathe from generation
to generation,” Young said.
“What I don’t want to happen is for this disaster money to leave this Gulf Coast without
these homes being reconstructed. I believe every
one of these houses in the Escatawpa area is
contaminated,” he said.
W.J. and Barbara Brown, whose home is east
of the church, don’t know Young, but they share
some of the same environmental concerns.
The Browns are still looking at black muck
that covers the floor of their Dutch Bayou home.
The elderly couple remembers seeing a hodgepodge of pollution — diesel, sewage and trash —
in the water on Aug. 29, the day Katrina struck.
C.E. Miller, manager of the wastewater
authority, said problems were experienced at
the plant during the hurricane when the storm
surge reached heights of seven to eight feet.
“The flood water did get in the process. We
didn’t have anybody there during the storm.
By the time we could get back to it, all the
waters had receded. We didn’t have evidence of
sewer sludge getting out into the neighborhood.
It very possibly could have,” Miller said.
“We considered salt water getting into the
system but didn’t consider the system getting
out in the neighborhood. We try to be a good
neighbor to those people out there. We’ve never had overflow or leakage,” he said.
Mississippi Department of Environmental
Quality learned of the residential concern Tuesday and plans to inspect along Dutch Bayou
Road today.
“I am glad the citizens are concerned enough
they have decided to pursue it. I wish they had
contacted my office, so we could have taken an
active role in trying to determine if there is a
problem,” said Mayor Xavier Bishop.
“I am in favor of testing that needs to be
done to determine if there’s any contamination. If it is determined there is, we will take all
William Colgin/The Mississippi Press necessary steps immediately to mitigate the
problem.”
Rev. Richard Young with Greater First Baptist Church in Escatawpa has been giving sermons
Young said, “My concern is not only for
in a makeshift addition of the church since the sanctuary was gutted by Hurricane Katrina.
Escatawpa, but all these houses on the MisThey also have reminders of the before-and - shot, and they found out we waded out of home sissippi Gulf Coast that have flooded.”

Recovery

“We’re going to have to fix it in a
way that is stronger,” schools superintendent Frank Till said.
Government officials and business
executives scrambled to repair buildings and find other places to work.
Broward County court officials were
trying to determine whether sessions
could be held at the damaged courthouse in coming days.
Some schools and courts closed for
the week. Orders to boil water were
issued in many locations. Miami-Dade,
Broward and Monroe counties imposed
overnight curfews.
At Miami International, the busiest
U.S. hub for Latin American travel,
the first plane to land since the hurricane arrived Tuesday from Brazil, and
domestic flights were to resume
Wednesday morning. Airports at Fort
Lauderdale and West Palm Beach
remained closed to commercial traffic
but emergency aircraft were coming
into both facilities.
At least 2,000 domestic and international flights were disrupted by the
storm, affecting hundreds of thousands
of fliers, when Wilma knocked out electricity and damaged roofs, towers,
fences and other equipment.
Agriculture officials said damage to
their industry would be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. The greatest losses were believed to be to the
winter vegetable crop, which provides
more than half of the nation’s supply
from November to February. Also hurt
were sugar cane fields and ornamental-plant nurseries.
The 21st storm in the worst Atlantic
hurricane season on record, Wilma
was blamed for at least five deaths
statewide. Before hitting the United
States, it killed at least six people in
Mexico, one in Jamaica and 12 in Haiti
as it swirled across the Caribbean.
“It will be days or weeks before we
are back to normal,” Miami-Dade May-
or Carlos Alvarez said.
In the wake of complaints over the
way the government dealt with Hurricane Katrina, the governor praised
the early response to Wilma.
But not everyone was so pleased.
Thousands of people reportedly stood
in line for up to 10 hours in North
Miami, waiting for relief supplies that
did not arrive until early evening.
“Pretty sad,” said Douglas Riley,
shaking his head after waiting 71⁄2
hours for two bags of ice. “It’s very disappointing for the amount of stuff we
got. But I’m grateful.”
Trucks carrying bags of ice and cases of water were late to a number of
distribution areas.
“We know the assets are there. Now
it’s just a matter of getting the product
to the people,” Miami-Dade Mayor
Carlos Alvarez said.
FEMA spokeswoman Frances
Marine urged patience. “We can’t wave

damage that was done by nature in a
day,” she said.
Distribution went more smoothly
elsewhere. At Key West High School,
the food even included Key lime pie.
And many storm-savvy Floridians
coped with good humor, their mood
lifted in part by spectacular weather in
the wake of Wilma: cloudless skies
and unseasonably low temperatures
that dropped into the 50s about dawn
Tuesday and were in the mid-70s during the day.
“This weather is a blessing,” said
Agnes Howard, who found her home
without air conditioning following a
hurricane for the second time in two
months.
“The heat in the aftermath of the
last storm was insufferable,” said her
husband, John Terrill, referring to
August’s Katrina. “Nobody slept for
days. At least we got a good night’s
sleep last night.”
Wilma knocked out power for hun-
dreds of miles, cutting off electricity to
a staggering one out of three Florida
residents. Florida Power & Light, the
state’ biggest utility, said Wilma affected more of its 4.3 million customers
than any other natural disaster in the
company’s history.
In heavily populated areas such as
Miami-Dade County, as many as 98
percent of its customers lost power.
At the Who’s on 1st Deli in Fort
Lauderdale, Maria Salvo and her
daughters melted ice for coffee and
made egg, cheese and sausage sandwiches on gas burners.
“We’re selling whatever we have,”
she said as people waited in line with
insulated cups.
Nearby, the steeple of the First Baptist Church of Fort Lauderdale was
stripped bare, and the sanctuary lost
much of its roof. Maintenance worker
Don Anderson walked around the
grounds with a chain saw, cutting up
some of the 100 or so damaged trees.

back big
It’s been nearly two
months since Hurricane
Katrina struck the Coast
and it feels like things are
getting close to normal.
Maybe not in the lives of
everyone, but local athletes
are giving their towns
something to cheer about.
Volleyball teams at East
Central, St. Martin, Vancleave and Ocean Springs
each made the playoffs and
gave their cities something
to feel joy in.
St. Martin, Moss Point
and

gave
Wittner
their
cities
something to cheer for in
difficult times.
Communities all along
the Coast were struck by
Katrina and the damage is
still leaving its mark. A
couple of players on St.
Martin’s softball team lost
their homes during the
storm, but being able to get
together and play softball
surely most have given the
players a little release.
Football has a stranglehold on most people in the
South and that is no different in Mississippi.
After missing a couple of
games due to Katrina, prep
football action got back
under way and there has
been excitement in the air
ever sense.
Ocean Springs, Moss
Point, Gautier and Greene
County are all ranked in
the Associated Press Top
10, with just a few weeks
to play this season.
Ocean Springs, Moss
Point, Pascagoula, George
County, Gautier, Vancleave
and East Central are all
battling for playoff spots.
Over the next three
weeks, those teams will
battle each Friday night to
give their cities something
to cheer about in a time
when everyone needs
something to elevate their
spirits.
Basketball and soccer
are right around the corner
and baseball and softball
will follow shortly after
that, and these kids will be
giving their all for their
family, friends and community.
I have been so impressed
by what kids at local
schools have been doing
during such a difficult time
like this.
The courage and togetherness they have all shown
should be an example to all
of us. It’s easy to say who
can think of sports at a
time like this, but thinking
of sports in some of these
communities may be just
what they need.
Go out and catch a game
Friday night and take a
two-hour trip to somewhere other than facing
the difficulties of the aftermath of the storm.

Norwood
carrying
load at State
STARKVILLE (AP) — Mississippi State coach Sylvester
Croom surely can’t hide his star
running back now — not after
his recent record-breaking performance.
“It’s no secret that we are
going to try to get
Jerious Norwood
the ball,” Croom
said Tuesday at
his weekly news
conference.
Norwood set
the school’s single-game rushing record with 257 yards in
last week’s 28-16 loss to Houston, breaking the mark of 237
yards set against Alabama in
1998 by James Johnson.
“He was able to do that
because our offensive run
blocking has vastly improved,”
Croom said. “The wide
receivers also did a good job of
blocking downfield. That is the
encouraging part for us but it is
also very obvious that we
missed opportunities, in particular in the
first half to win
that game.”
Norwood ran
66 yards for the
Bulldogs’ lone
touchdown
against the Cougars. But aside
from that, the team’s inability
to get into the end zone was
costly.
Mississippi State (2-5, 0-4
Southeastern Conference) managed just three field goals the
rest of the way in losing its

Mississippi State running back Jerious Norwood run
past Houston defenders for a long touchdown Saturday in Starkville. Norwood gained an MSU record 257
yards in the loss to the Cougars.
fourth straight game.
“Many of the players were
disappointed and were hurt by
the loss, and that is how you
are supposed to feel,” Croom
said. “The only way you can
cure that sick feeling is to go
win a football game.”
Croom also said kicker Keith
Andrews probably won’t play
at Kentucky (1-5, 0-3) after he
injured his leg on the second-
half kickoff. Adam Carlson
relieved him and kicked a 20yard field goal in the third
quarter.
“He has gotten a lot of work
in practice, but just has not gotten the game experience,”
Croom said of Carlson. “He is
going to get a lot this weekend.
I have confidence in Adam to
get the job done.”
Kickoff is 6 p.m.
Saints find another way to lose
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Lastminute penalties and mistakes
are starting to mount for the
New Orleans Saints.
At 2-5, the club is off to its
worst start since 1999 and in
last place by two games in the
NFC South. New Orleans was
1-6 and on the way to a 3-13
record in Mike Ditka’s final season with the Saints.
Coach Jim Haslett need only
look at the final plays of the
past two games to see why.
Two weeks ago, the Saints
lost to Atlanta 34-31 when the
Falcons got a second chance to
make a last-second field goal
because of a defensive holding
penalty on Tony Bryan.
That trend continued Sunday against St. Louis. New
Orleans was driving into Rams
territory when a completion to
tight end Ernie Conwell turned
into an interception return for a
28-17 Rams victory.
“That’s one area where I’m
really concerned,” Haslett said.
“We’re not playing at the level
we’ve played in the past. That
bothers me as much as anything.”
Mistakes on special teams are
the chief concern for Haslett.
For the second week in a row,
placekicker John Carney had a
field goal attempt blocked.
Haslett said the Saints have
committed 18 penalties on special teams plays, matching last
season’s total.
“That’s enough. You want to
get no more than one a game,”
Haslett said. “I’m not real happy about it. I don’t know if it’s
the focus or the guys playing
aren’t very smart. We’re going to
look at it.”
Some stats that particularly
stand out so far this season: The
Saints have been outscored by a
201-119 margin, an average of
almost 12 points per game.
The club is last in the league
in turnover margin, giving the
ball away 12 more times than
they have taken it away.
And only six teams in the
league have more opportunities
to score inside the opponents’
20-yard line, but the Saints are
fourth-worst in the league in
converting those opportunities.
Blown leads haunted the
team in St. Louis.
New Orleans was up 14-0 in
the first quarter but were
unable to respond when the
Rams racked up 21 unanswered
STARKVILLE (AP) —
Rick Stansbury isn’t sure
what to expect from his
young Mississippi State
team.
The Bulldogs almost certainly will be one of the
youngest teams in the
country, and the coach is
replacing his top six scorers
from a team that last season played in its fourth
straight NCAA tournament.
“I can’t change where we
are in experience and
youthfulness,” Stansbury
said Monday during the
team’s media day. “Naturally, our goals are the
same. We’re not going to
use it or lack of experience
as an excuse. We’ve got to
do other things to offset
that, and offset it with
togetherness and toughness.”
Perhaps the biggest hole
Stansbury must fill is at
power forward, where onetime Southeastern Conference player of the year and
Howell Trophy winner
Lawrence Roberts has
moved on to the NBA.
Roberts led the team
with averages of 16.9 points
and 11 rebounds per game

get better
as season
nears
AP
New Orleans’ Ernie Conwell appears to have control of the football on a pass from
quarterback Aaron Brooks with St. Louis defensive back Jerome Carter defending
during the second half of the game in St. Louis, Sunday. St. Louis’ Mike Furrey
picked up the football off Conwell while he was on his back and ran 67-yards for
the touchdown. The Rams defeated the Saints 28-17.
points in the fourth quarter.
“One play here and one play
there and before you know it,
we’re in the fourth quarter and
we haven’t put them away,”
offensive guard Kendyl Jacox
said.
Five plays following a fumble by receiver Donte’ Stallworth, the Rams scored the goahead touchdown.
That still left almost six minutes for the Saints to score.
Those hopes collapsed when
the officials ruled Conwell didn’t hang on to a pass in St.
Louis territory. It appeared
Conwell was down with his
hands on the ball. But there
was no chance for a replay
when Rams safety Mike Furrey
plucked the ball out of Conwell’s hands and raced 67 yards
for a touchdown.
The play started when 2:10
showed on the clock, meaning
there could be no replay ordered
from the booth in the final two
minutes although the play ended with 1:55 to go. And the
Saints couldn’t request a replay
because they were out of time
outs.
Haslett, who has been fined
for criticizing officials this season, thought Conwell caught
the ball but didn’t blast officials
this time.
The call wasn’t sitting well
with one player.
“I’ve never seen a guy catch
the ball and land on his back
and another guy take it away
and go for six (points),” Jacox
said. “In my mind, they were
going to review it. So I stayed on
the field. They had to tell us to
get off. I couldn’t believe it. I
honestly don’t know what to
say.”
After playing two home
games at their practice facility
at the Alamodome following
Hurrican Katrina, the Saints
next travel to Baton Rouge, La.,
for a home game against the
Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Gordon gets early start on team rebuilding
MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) — Jeff Gordon is out of the Chase for the championship, and thinks he deserves to be. These
days, while he breaks in a new crew chief,
Gordon talks a lot about being better next
year.
That doesn’t mean he’s waiting until
then.
Gordon and new crew chief Steve Letarte
got started on the comeback Sunday, holding off Tony Stewart in a three-lap dash to
win at Martinsville Speedway. It was Gordon’s first victory since May 1 at Talladega,
and a much-needed pick-me-up for the
team.
“I don’t know how long it’s been since
we had a top 5, so anything to really just get
us a spark, get the excitement, get some
chemistry going between Steve and the
team and myself and just be able to build on

BATON ROUGE, La.
(AP) — J.R. Smith scored
24 points and Chris Paul
had nine assists to lead
the New Orleans Hornets
to a 111-91 preseason victory over Miami on Tuesday night, spoiling the
homecoming of Heat center Shaquille O’Neal.
Bostjan Nachbar scored
20, Kirk Snyder 19 and
Jamaal Magloire 12 for
the Hornets.
O’Neal, who played
three seasons at LSU,
returned to play at the
Pete Maravich Assembly
Center for the first time
since leaving college after
the 1991-92 season. He
finished with 20 points,
seven rebounds and a
blocked shot.
O’Neal received a loud
ovation during pregame
introductions and on two
monstrous dunks in the
first half. He left in the
third quarter after picking up his fifth foul and
then a technical foul for
arguing with the officials.
Darius Rice added 14
points for the Heat. Doreel
Wright added 12 and
Antoine Walker scored 11.
The Hornets led 37-19
after one quarter and 6650 at halftime. Most of the
starters for both teams
played the first three
quarters.
Former LSU star Brandon Bass, a rookie,
entered the game in the
fourth quarter and had
four
points,
three
rebounds and a dunk that
brought the crowd to its
feet.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Alabama, Florida State to meet in 2007
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama and Florida
State signed a one-game deal Tuesday to play
at a neutral site in 2007, a high-profile nonconference matchup for two schools that
haven’t faced off since the Seminoles rose to
prominence under Alabama-native Bobby Bowden.
The two teams will play Sept. 29 at Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla.
“It should be a great ball game between the
two programs,” said Bowden. “I grew up on
Alabama football and have always wanted the
chance to play against them. All of my early life
was centered around the teams of Frank
Thomas and Bear Bryant. I know their history
well.”
The teams haven’t met since 1974, an 8-7
Alabama win and the Crimson Tide holds a 20-1 edge in the series.
“We expect this game to produce a great
deal of excitement within our respective fan
bases and on a national level as well,” Alabama athletic director Mal Moore said Tuesday.
Alabama won 21-0 during the first meeting in
1965, but the Seminoles earned a 37-37 tie in
1967. All three games were at Alabama.
Both teams have looked stellar this season,
with the Seminoles (6-1) ranked 10th and
Alabama (7-0) ranked No. 5.
“Alabama looks like the old Alabama to me
now,” said Bowden, a Birmingham native. “I
hope we haven’t bitten off more than we can
chew.”
The one-time meeting will be televised by
either CBS or ESPN.
MSU-Alabama to be televised by CBS
STARKVILLE — The Mississippi StateAlabama football game, scheduled for Nov. 5,
has been chosen by CBS for a national telecast, the Southeastern Conference announced

Scott Field on the MSU campus.
It is the Bulldogs’ first CBS game since the
2001 season, and the first televised from
Starkville since the national network broadcast
MSU games vs. Florida and Auburn in back-toback weeks in 2000.

Wie to play in PGA
Tour’s Sony Open
HONOLULU (AP) —
Michelle Wie will start 2006
much like the past two years
— competing against men on
her home island. But this time
around, she’ll be playing for
pay.
Wie has received and
accepted a sponsor’s exemption to play in January’s Sony
Open, the first full-field PGA
Tour event of the year, tournament officials said Tuesday.
“We’re in the entertainment
business, it’s more than just a
golf tournament,” PGA Tour
vice president Ric Clarson
said. “So when a player like
Michelle plays in the Sony
Open, it creates national and
international attention on,
’Can she do it?’
“Now that she has turned
professional, there’s even more
attention on her progress as a
player.”
It will be Wie’s third
straight Sony Open, where
she made her PGA Tour debut
in 2004 as a 14-year-old and
missed the cut by a stroke.
Her 68 in the second round
was the lowest score by a
female competing against
men.
She also missed the cut in
January at Waialae Country
Club.
“I think it’s a perfect fit with
her roots here in Hawaii and
that fact that she has played
here in the past,” Clarson
said. “It’s almost like watching
one of your children grow up.”
Wie has been a marketing
success story for the Sony
Corp. ever since company
executives took a gamble and
took the unprecedented move
of inviting a high school fresh-
man to play against the best
male golfers in the world.
The tournament has since
enjoyed record attendance,
strong ratings and attracted
media from around the world.
“Two years ago when we
gave an exemption to Michelle
Wie, from a Japanese corporate standpoint, she was just
a hotshot local kid,” said
Masao Morita, Sony’s senior
vice president. “We weren’t
really sure how good she was,”
The company is now one of
Wie’s multimillion dollar sponsors. The other is Nike.
Sony also announced it was
extending its title sponsorship
of the Sony Open through
2010.

Monday nights still big for NFL players, coaches
By PAUL NEWBERRY
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Despite falling TV
ratings and an impending move to
cable, there’s still something special
about playing on Monday Night
Football.
It’s the only game in the country
after a manic Sunday featuring up to
15 games. Even if the number of
viewers has dropped off over the
years, players and coaches from the
other 30 teams are sure to be tuned
in.
“I don’t think the players worry
too much about the ratings,” said
Atlanta Falcons coach Jim Mora,
whose team faced the New York Jets
in its second Monday night appearance of the season. “They just know
that on Monday night all their peers
are sitting at home watching them.
The bright lights are on and it’s
prime-time television. It’s exciting.
Monday Night Football is the best,
besides playoff football.”
Howard Cosell, Dandy Don Meredith and Frank Gifford helped make
Monday Night Football a true
national phenomenon for ABC during the 1970s. Come Tuesday morning, fans gathered around the water
cooler to discuss Cosell’s outrageous
candor, Meredith’s sidesplitting
humor and seemingly minuscule tidbits such as whether the local team
got a prized spot on the halftime
highlights, which only featured the
best games from the previous day.
Coming along in an era when most
World Series games were still played
during the day, there was something
special about a sporting event being
shown at night, giving viewers an
alternative to traditional prime-time
fare such as “Gunsmoke” and “The
Ed Sullivan Show.”
Of course, Monday Night Football
got its start when there were only
three networks. No one had heard of
cable television or the Internet.
As fans got more and more choices,
ABC suffered an inevitable decline in
its numbers. Plus, the NFL and
every other sport began showing
more and more games in prime time,
taking away the uniqueness of the
Monday night game.
When the NFL’s new television
contract goes into effect next season, ABC will cede Monday Night
Football to its cable partner, ESPN.
NBC takes over games on Sunday
night — which will become the
league’s main prime-time package.
Sunday Night Football, anyone?
Still, those taking part in this final
season of Monday Night Football as
we’ve come to know it don’t believe
the event has lost any luster.
“Oh, it’s electric,” Jets coach Herman Edwards said. “It’s the last
game (of the week) at night, Monday
night, a special game. And they generally pick good teams, teams that
are going to be good that year. Sometimes it doesn’t work out that way
because of certain things. But there’s
a reason that you got chosen to play
on Monday night. It has to do with
the way you played the year before.”
The Falcons have been a rarity on
Monday nights, but they got three of
the coveted games in 2005 after
reaching the NFC championship last
season. In a typical bit of NFL scheduling, they got a rematch against
the Philadelphia Eagles — the team
that beat Atlanta for a spot in the
Super Bowl — in the first Monday
game of the season.
Emotions were clearly running
high on that night. A half-hour before
kickoff, the teams got in a brawl during pregame warmups, leading to
the ejection of Philadelphia’s Bubba Trotter and Atlanta’s Kevin Mathis.
“It’s different,” Jets linebacker Eric
Barton said. “People can watch it
AP
Atlanta’s Warrick Dunn out runs New York Jets defenders Mark Brown (55), Bryan Thomas (99) and
Jonathan Vilma on a second quarter run Monday in Atlanta.
everywhere. You don’t have to have
cable — anybody with a TV can
watch it. It’s the only game on, and it
shows. As a professional football
player, you want to be in the spotlight.”
Not surprisingly, the game’s best
players are usually at their best in
the Monday night limelight. They
know their Pro Bowl and All-Pro credentials are sure to be enhanced
when they have a big game in front
of all those potential voters.
“This is only my second Monday
night game,” Falcons quarterback
Michael Vick said. “I’m very excited
about it, and we’ve got one more
down the road. You just have to
cherish every moment and go out
there and give the world what they
want to see.”
Of course, most games are held on
Sunday. In the routine-oriented
world of the NFL, playing on Monday night throws everything out of
whack. A team has an extra day to
prepare for its prime-time game, but
one less day to get ready for its next
contest. That seemingly minor
change can make a world of difference for both player and coach.
“Monday night is not really a big
deal for me,” Jets center Pete
Kendall said. “It just shortens the
next work week. Earlier in my
career, it would’ve been nice. ... Once
they kick the ball off, it’s just another game — whether you play it Sunday at 1 p.m. or Monday at 9 p.m.”
Gordon
From Page 1-B
something today meant a lot
here,” he said.
Gordon beat Stewart by .235
seconds, with Gordon’s Hendrick
Motorsports teammate Jimmie
Johnson third. Stewart leads
Johnson by 15 points for first in
the Chase.
Gordon didn’t get a chance to
help Johnson in his bid for a
championship, as all the Hendrick teams have pledged to do.
But he did start to build a history with Letarte, who has Gordon’s vote as the replacement
for the departed Robbie Loomis.
“It’s been a tough year and we
certainly could use a win and
today was just phenomenal,”
Gordon said, patting his 26-yearold crew chief. “That was a great
call he made to stay out that one
time — that’s really what won us
the race today.”
The call came when the 13th
of a race-record 19 cautions flew
on lap 343.
Told to stay on the track, Gordon assumed the lead when he
and five others didn’t follow the
other top contenders onto pit road.
Also staying out were the Roush
Racing trio of Greg Biffle, Mark
Martin and Matt Kenseth. Stewart came off pit road seventh.
Stewart had dominated to that
point, leading 283 of 343 laps,
and easily passed the first six
cars and seemed content to wait
for Gordon to fade. Gordon was
racing on tires more than 50 laps
older than Stewart’s. Instead,
Gordon expanded his lead.
“We were just phenomenal
once we got out front,” Gordon
said.
Gordon had to hold the lead
through six more restarts, as
well as the sight of Stewart
nudging Johnson aside to take
second place, but was never
threatened.
“There was no catching Jeff,”
Stewart said. “I don’t know what
makes him so fast at the end of
the day like that. He was just too
strong to keep up with.”
Gordon’s 73rd career victory
gave him a sweep of the season’s
two races on the .526-mile
speedway — the oldest, shortest and tightest run in
NASCAR’s premier series.
As he did in April, Gordon said
he was dedicating the Subway
500 win to 10 people killed a
year ago when a Hendrickowned plane crashed on the way
to the track.
The runner-up finish was the
second in a row for Stewart here.
He led 247 laps in the spring
before a tire came off with 70
laps to go. This time, he again
dominated until the shadows
grew longer, then wasn’t as
strong after his last two pit
stops.

THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS
Georgia, Florida meet in annual battle
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — This is
something new. Georgia heads
into the “World’s Largest Outdoor
Cocktail Party” with the makings
of a winning streak against Florida.
Don’t get too excited, Bulldog
fans. The streak, if you can call it
that, is currently at one — hardly
enough to erase 15 years of nearly annual heartache.
“It doesn’t make any difference,”
Georgia safety Greg Blue said
Tuesday. “People are always going
to have that question: Can you
beat Florida?”
And what would it take to
appease the doubters?
“We probably need to beat ’em
10 times in a row,” Blue responded.
Back-to-back wins would be a
good start. Georgia hasn’t done
that since the 1980s.
“We know they still have the
upper hand,” Blue said. “One
game didn’t prove we can beat
Florida. Consecutive years would
really show we can beat them.”
The Gators have beaten Georgia
13 of the last 15 seasons, a domi-
nating run that coincided with
Steve Spurrier’s arrival as Florida
coach in 1990. He knocked off Ray
Goff ’s teams six years in a row —
often by ridiculous margins — and
had a 4-1 edge on Jim Donnan
before winning his lone meeting
against current coach Mark Richt
in 2001.
Even after Spurrier left for an
ill-fated job in the NFL, the Gators
kept on winning. Ron Zook beat
Georgia his first two years, including a 2002 upset that was the
Bulldogs’ only loss and perhaps
denied them a chance to play for
the national championship.
Richt finally picked up his first
win over Florida last year, a 31-24
triumph that came just days after
the Gators announced that Zook
would be let go at the end of the
season.
Considering the state of the
Florida program at the time, Georgia nose guard Ray Gant said the
2004 victory probably should come
with an asterisk.
“I don’t think anything has really changed,” he said. “Last year,
they had just fired their coach.
They probably felt like they had
nothing to play for. They were in a
slump. I’m sure they’ll come out
and play a much better game with
a lot more energy.”
In fact, the No. 16 Gators (5-2)
opened as a solid 5 1/2-point
favorite for Saturday’s game at
Jacksonville, Fla., even though
Georgia has a higher ranking, a
better record and a lot more on
the line.
The No. 4 Bulldogs (7-0) can
clinch a spot in the Southeastern
Conference championship game
with a victory, and they must win
to further their hopes of playing
for a national title.
But the oddsmakers know that
Georgia will be without quarterback D.J. Shockley, the top-rated
passer in the Southeastern Conference. He can’t play after spraining a knee ligament in last week’s
victory over Arkansas.
Junior Joe Tereshinski will
make his first career start. He’s
thrown a grand total of 23 passes
since arriving at Georgia, spending most of his time on special
teams.

Homestead track
ecapes brunt of Wilma
By JEFF PRICE
The Associated Press
HOMESTEAD, Fla. — HomesteadMiami Speedway sustained some damage
from the strong winds of Hurricane
Wilma, but next month’s season-ending
NASCAR race will go on as scheduled,
the track president said Tuesday.
High winds blew parts of pit row’s
garage suites across the track and into
the grandstand, damaging the seating
area, debris fences and some of the track’s
new $8.5 million lighting system for night
racing.
There was no structural damage to the
racing surface, site of the Nextel Cup
series’ Ford 400 on Nov. 20. Speedway
president Curtis Gray said he was still
waiting for a damage estimate.
“We’re scrambling a little bit, but all the
rest is under way,” Gray said. “We expect
to be ready to go in three weeks.”
The garage suites, canvas coverings
that sit atop the garages, were both a
victim and a culprit of the damage. Gray
rode out the storm and witnessed the
entire quarter-mile long row of suites get
picked up and blown away by the wind.
“I was here when it hit, so about 6 in
the morning, I hear something almost
like an explosion,” Gray said. “I looked out
and I saw the canvas and it was just
mind-boggling, how part of that could be
on the back part of the grandstand.”
Twelve new light poles lining pit row
were taken out by the storm, and debris
also damaged one of the tracks new light
towers. Some of the grandstand will have
to be replaced, Gray said.
Also damaged were the debris fences
lining the grandstand area, but the storm
spared the track’s new tower in turn one,
which is still under construction. All of the
track’s stationary buildings withstood
the winds.
Operation teams from Daytona International Speedway, which escaped damage from Wilma, and Talladega Superspeedway were expected to arrive late
Tuesday to help with repairs, Gray said.
“That makes it good to have those
resources, because most of South Florida
was hit by this storm and we don’t have
long (to make repairs),” Gray said.

SINGING RIVER MH / MR
Services - Region 14

The agency was established in 1972 as one of the 15 comprehensive mental
health centers in Mississippi. Also known as Singing River Services, the
agency maintains a global approach to services. It has facilities in Jackson and
George Counties and offers specialized services for adult, individuals with
developmental disabilities, individuals with chemical and other addictions, the
elderly, and children in their families.
ADULT SERVICES
Singing River Mental Health/Mental Retardation Services-Region 14 offers
a variety of mental health services for adults. Our services include individual,
family, and group therapy services. All individuals requesting services are
screened to determine the most appropriate treatment recommendations.
Specialized services for the elderly population are available in Jackson

well trained and provide the therapy and support needed for individuals to
overcome, manage, and take control of their lives.
DEVELOPMENTAL
DISABILITIES SERVICES
Singing River Industries/Georco Industries is a program that serves
individuals with mental retardation / developmental disabilities. The
purpose of the program is to assist these individuals in remaining in their
homes and communities. Services offered under this program include
Case Management, Employment Services, Supported Living, Day
Habilitation, Prevocational Services, Work Activity Services, and Eddie
DiSanti Group Home.
CHILDREN’S SERVICES
Singing River Services Children’s Staff take a team approach involving
not only the child and his parents/caregivers but also the Therapist, Case
Manager, and Day Treatment Specialist. The staff works in partnership
with local schools to provide services for children at risk. The rationale
for the partnership between a mental health agency and a school system
is the belief that social skills are the building blocks of society. Good social
skills prepare children for success and appropriate interaction with
people. A child lacking social skills or having poor social skills in not well
understood by others, nor will he/she understand others well.
Services provided by Singing River Services are funded by
client fees, third-party payers including private insurance companies, public insurance programs (Medicaid and Medicare) and
funding from the Department of Mental Health and other
federal, state, and local agencies.

TIPS FOR COPING
It’s normal to have difficulty managing your feelings after major
tragedies. Because everyone experiences stress differently, don’t
compare yourself with others around you or judge other people’s
reactions and emotions. Here are some tips for coping with stress.
• Talk about it. By talking with others about the event, you can relieve stress and
realize that others share your experiences and feelings.
• Spend time with friends and family. They can help you through this tough time.
If your family lives outside the area, stay in touch phone if possible. If you have
children, encourage them to share their feelings and concerns with you.
• Take care of yourself. Get as much rest and exercise as possible. Try to continue
your religious practices, or centering activities.
• Take one thing at a time. Getting things back to normal can seem impossible.
Break the job up into doable tasks. Complete that task first and then move on
to the next one. Completing each task will give you a sense of accomplishment.
• If you can, help. Give blood; help prepare meals for others including the elderly.
Volunteer to help clean up or rebuild your community. Read to children in the
shelter.
• Avoid drugs and excessive drinking. Drugs and alcohol may seem to help you
feel better, but in the long run they generally create additional problems that
compound the stress you’re already feeling.
• Ask for help if you need it. If your stress is so strong it gets in the way of your
daily life, talk with someone. You can start with a trusted friend, relative, or
minister. You may want to talk with a mental health professional to discuss how
well you are coping with recent events. This could especially important for
people who had existing mental health problems.
PROJECT RECOVERY
Singing River Mental Health is delighted to be the recipient of a
FEMA/MEMA grant channeled through the Department of Mental Health. This
grant allows Singing River Mental Health Region 14 to dispatch over 100
Outreach Workers into our community. The projects goal is to canvass

will travel in pairs to provide psychological first aid, educational services, and
referrals. Contacts have been and will continue to be made with the schools,
churches, shelters, recovery centers, family assistance centers, and community
gathering spots to access needs and provide services.
Singing River Mental Health Region 14 has been and continues to be in the
vanguard of service not only to known clientele but the community at large
through education, information, resource, and skilled professionals who care
about their community.
CURRENT STATUS REPORT

clinically significant issues, elderly population being most at risk, especially
concerning isolation issues. Children remain a high priority now that the
acute stress period has passed, post traumatic issues will continue to surface.
We must remember the talk of “categories of loss” does not fully capture the
magnitude of human suffering.
Singing River Mental Health Region 14 continues to provide services to our
community not through a few programs but 33 different programs.
These services are from the youngest child to the oldest adult, for over 33 years.

Boyfriend’s big
plans take woman’s
father by surprise
Dear Abby: Just before my
daughter returned to college,
my wife and I took her and
her boyfriend, “Justin,” out to
dinner. It was the first time
we’d met him, although they
have been going out for about
six months. They attend colleges a good distance apart,
and see each other about once
a month
but talk
daily.
As the
dinner
conversation progressed, I
asked
Justin
what his
major was Dear
and what Abby
he plans to
do after
college. He said he wants to
be in the film industry. I
asked what he planned to do
if it didn’t work out. He
responded, “Go into the family
business.” I asked what business Justin’s family was in.
He responded that his family
didn’t have a business, that
he had meant our family business.
Then he said, by the way, he
would change how we were
running it to produce more
cash by slowing down our
expansion plans. I was
speechless. My daughter told
us later that she and Justin
had never discussed it before.
My wife and I are in our
40s. We don’t plan on retiring
soon, or letting any of our own
kids take over running the
business.
My wife says we should
drop it. I think we should
make it clear to Justin that
our family business should
not be his backup plan. If he
did marry our daughter and
wanted to come to work for
the family business, he might
be welcome. However, he certainly would not have the control he thinks he would. What
are your thoughts on this
matter, Abby? — Not Ready
to Retire in N.Y.
Dear Not Ready to
Retire: I’ll say this for Justin,
he has youth and enthusiasm
going for him; he speaks his
mind and his contingency
plan shows he has an eye to
the future.
Your wife is telling you to
let it drop in the hope that the
romance will go nowhere.
However, on the chance that
it will go forward, you’d be
doing the young man a favor
to bring him back to planet
Earth regarding your business.
P.S. If I were you, I’d think
long and hard before deciding
to welcome him into it.
Write Dear Abby at
www.DearAbby.com or P.O.

Are eggs in your fridge

Dear Heloise: You made
me giggle when I saw you on

for the life of me, I had no
idea what your hints were
with the
eggs!
Thanks for

Thanks, By Heloise
Karen — I
got the
giggles myself! It wasn’t easy
trying to share all of the information with David Letterman
making his funny comments.
However, the egg hints I gave
were how to tell a fresh egg
from a not-so-fresh one.
Here’s the hint: An older
egg has a larger air pocket
inside the shell, so it floats in
water. A fresh egg will sink.
The egg that floated was
from a carton of eggs that one
of David Letterman’s staff
members had in his fridge,
and the “sell by” date was
Jan. 10. The sell-by date
appears on every egg carton.
The American Egg Board
states that properly stored
eggs can be eaten four to five
weeks after the sell-by date
and be OK.
Recently, my husband was
making pancakes and noticed
that the sell-by date printed
on the end of the egg carton
was “Oct. 03.” He showed it to
me and couldn’t believe we
had 2-year-old eggs in our
fridge! Well, upon further
investigation, we determined
that the “03” meant the day,
not the year. We took a poll at
Heloise Central. Some
thought it meant the day, and
some thought it meant the
year.
By the way, the pancakes
were great! — Heloise
Former teacher’s favorite
learning lesson from affair
Dear Annie: People often
say that one should never get
involved in an office romance,
but it’s too late for me.
I am a 23-year-old woman
who got involved with my
much-older boss, a professor
whom I was assisting while
working on my graduate
degree. In
an academic setting this
is frowned
upon, so
we kept it
secret for
over a
year.
The
problem,
however,
is that it
Annie’s
was
incredibly Mailbox
difficult
for me when the relationship
came to an end. I stopped
working for this man, but
now find myself adrift both
emotionally and professionally in the department. And I
never anticipated the professional retribution from him
and from my peers.
I have lost more than I can
describe. No one ever talks
about student-teacher relationships, but they happen all
the time. I can handle the
heartache, but how do I handle the professional fallout?
— Former Teacher’s Pet
Dear Former Pet: While
we cannot condone your
behavior, the truth is, your
professor is the one at fault.
He abused his authority by
taking advantage of his position over you, and he should
have known better than to
get involved with a student.
Inform this professor that
he will immediately stop
penalizing you for the affair
or you will report him to the
head of the department or the
dean of the school.
You made a mistake, and
now you must deal with the
consequences. So should he.
You also might consider
looking at another school to
finish your degree.
And make sure that professor writes you a decent recommendation.
E-mail your questions to
anniesmailboxcomcast.net, or
write to: Annie’s Mailbox, P.O.
Box 118190, Chicago, IL

CPR failure no cause for self-loathing
Dear Dr. Gott: Please comment on
doing CPR on people and having them not
survive. It happened to me and I feel
awful even though EMS said I did everything correctly. Do others feel the same? I
am a nurse and this was not in a hospital
setting.
Dear Reader: Medical personnel
invariably feel traumatized when their
efforts at cardio-pulmonary resuscitation
fail.
However, it is important to realize that
in such a critical situation, there is never
a guarantee of success. You did what you
were trained to do, to the best of your
ability, in difficult circumstances. Don’t
beat yourself up.
Dear Dr. Gott: I am 80 years old and
read your column in
my newspaper daily. I
tried putting soap
under the bottom
sheet for cramps. It
helps (most of the
time). I get cramps
during the day in my
feet. And I got the
idea to rub on liquid
soap.
Peter
It works every time!
Gott, M.D.
The cramp stops
almost at once.
Thought you might like to know.
Dear Reader: Here is yet another variation of the soap-under-the-sheet remedy
for leg cramps that I had not heard
before, so — once again — I am turning to
my readers for their experiences, both pro
and con. Let me hear from you, readers,
about liquid soap and daytime cramps.
Dear Dr. Gott: I read your article
about castor oil to ease arthritic problems,
and I laughed. So I thought why not try
it, it can do no harm. My skin is dry anyway, I’m pretty old. I’m 93 years old, so I
did.
I’m doing much better; no pain, no cane
and now I’m not walking like a duck any
more. I’ll keep using it every day, it sure
helps, and I’ll be sending this idea to my
sister in Montreal. She has the same
problem.
Dear Reader: I am delighted to learn
of your success. Thanks for writing.
If you open on a 10, what about the nine?
Start by looking at the
North and South hands. In
which contract would you
like to play?
Next, study that East
hand. After a pass on your
right, what would you do?
This deal was played 32
times on the e-bridge network. At 24 of the tables,
South ended in three spades
after this uncontested
sequence: pass - one diamond - one no-trump - two
spades - three diamonds three spades - pass. North
passed a forcing bid, despite
having 10 points and six
cards in his partner’s long
suits.
Six diamonds is a good
contract. If trumps are 2-2,
you are home. If the dia-
mond
queen is
singleton,
you’ll be
all right if
you do not
have a
spade loser. With
the actual
layout, on
Philip
a nonAlder
heart
lead,
South draws two rounds of
trumps, receiving the bad
news, then plays on spades,
discarding two hearts from
the dummy and eventually
ruffing his heart seven on
the board. On a heart lead,
though, the contract must
fail. The winning spot is six
diamonds by North, which
cannot be beaten.
At one table, East opened
one heart in the second position. Yesterday, I gave a deal
with a 10-point one-level
opening bid; now nine. (Any
takers for eight?) But this
worked beautifully because
when South pulled up in six
diamonds, West led the
heart four to defeat the contract. (Declarer played low
from the dummy at trick
one, but East correctly
inserted the eight.
South won, drew two
rounds of trumps, and started on the spades, but West
ruffed the fourth round and
led another heart to his
partner’s king.)
