FEMA announces Jackson County trailer sites
By JOY E. STODGHILL
The Mississippi Press
An estimated 1,393 Jackson
County families may have a home
in time for the holidays.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has tentatively set
Dec. 24 as the latest deadline for
Emergency Housing Group Sites to
be ready for occupancy.
Nineteen sites have been accepted for Jackson County. The sites
are specifically for people without a
driveway or utility connections for
a trailer on their properties, or for
former residents of apartments or
condominiums.
In Pascagoula, more than 100
trailers are in place on Ingalls
Avenue and will soon be ready for
occupancy. A few families have
already moved to the site.
Crystal Countryman and her
son, Landyn Hoard, moved into
their trailer Wednesday, along with
her sister and her child.
“It’s nice. You get some privacy,”
Countryman said. “It’s better than
sleeping on the ground every day.”
“I think it’s harder on the kids
than anything else,” said Countryman’s new neighbor, Lynda Price.
Price and her two children, Ryan
Lynda Price places items in the cabinets as her daughter
Alyssa, 7, plays at the table of their FEMA trailer. The family is
dealing with space constrictions in their new home as they
prepare to rebuild their Pascagoula home.
O’Mary, 18, and Alyssa Price, 7, lost
their home on Chickasaw Avenue.
“It’s pretty bad when all you have
fits in your trunk,” Price said. “The
trailers could be bigger. It’s kind of
snug.”
Price said she was concerned
that they have little storage space
inside the trailers. However, she
added, the trailer was better than
the hotel room where she had been
staying. They are waiting for possible changes to flood elevation
requirements before they rebuild
their home.
Price said they plan to stay in the
trailer for 18 months “or until we
get our house built.”
According to FEMA spokesman
Gene Romano, temporary housing
is available for a maximum of 18
months. He said FEMA intends for
most residents on the sites to be
reassigned to other types of temporary housing, such as mobile homes
or trailers on their own property
once utilities are restored.
“Residents may move from one
form of temporary housing to something more permanent,” Romano
said.
Sites are set up in each city to
accommodate that city’s displaced
residents. At this time, there are no
plans to relocate residents outside
their current communities.
“That’s our goal. We’re trying to
keep people in their own communities,” said Linda Green, director of
the Jackson County Unified Command Team’s housing branch.
In addition to the Ingalls Avenue
site, Vancleave High School officials
have allowed 12 trailers on their
property for teachers who lost
everything. These are the first two
BILOXI — After Hurricane Katrina roared
in, Gov. Haley Barbour quickly convened a
special legislative session and, just 10 days
after the storm, appointed a commission to
study rebuilding Mississippi’s coastline.
The former Republican National Committee
chairman and influential Washington lobbyist also traveled to the nation’s capital several times to extract promises of federal aid
from friends in the Bush administration.
Because of the Barbour ’s take-charge
approach to the disaster, even some of Mississippi’s staunchest Democrats are saying
he may be tough to beat if he seeks a second
term in 2007.
In Louisiana, it is a different story: Some
pundits suspect Democratic Gov. Kathleen
Blanco could prove to be a one-termer when
she comes up for re-election the same year.
Some critics — particularly Republicans,
but also some Democrats — say Blanco was
overwhelmed by the disaster and paralyzed
with indecision. They say she was too slow to
call for federal assistance as Katrina

Homecoming not the same in Gautier
■ Played early, with no parade,
Gators make best of the day

PASCAGOULA — Though the football team
played, a queen was crowned and the band
played on, most Gautier High
School students agreed that
Game story,
homecoming on a Thursday

night just wasn’t quite the
same.
In order to allow Pascagoula High School to
play at home at War Memorial Stadium Friday
night, Gautier High celebrated homecoming a
day early. Instead of the annual homecoming
parade, the homecoming court was driven around
the football field in convertibles.

“It would have been better if it was on Friday
because half of my friends and family couldn’t be
here because they have other things to do on
Thursday night,” sophomore maid Charlotte Bell
said.
“It’s not the same because I like to throw the
candy,” she added. “That’s the best part about
homecoming is the parade.”
GHS principal Bernard Rogers said past homecoming activities have extended over five days.
“We felt the need to scale it back to some
extent,” he said.
A pep rally was held at school Thursday, and
the homecoming maids wore formal gowns during
the traditional presentation of the court.
“All of this was designed to give (the students)
an added boost,” Rogers said.

Keesler commander headed to Pentagon
BILOXI — Keesler Air Force Base commander Brig. Gen. William Lord will leave the
Gulf Coast military facility on Nov. 15 to take
a job at the Pentagon.
Brig. Gen. Paul F. Capasso, director of command, control, communications and computer
systems, at the U.S. transportation command,
Scott Air Force Base, Ill., will relieve Lord at a
change of command ceremony on Nov. 15.
Lord, 50, has been promoted to chief information officer in the Air Force’s Office of
Warfighting Integration at the Pentagon. He
will be an administrator with the Air Force’s
information technology office.
Keesler suffered $915 million in damages
from Hurricane Katrina.
Lord, who took command of Keesler in April
2004, said the base has money earmarked to fix
the heavy flooding and damage to Keesler Medical Center and base housing among other
things. He said that money is appropriated
each year and the Air Force has already given
the base money for the repairs.
Lord said other parts of the base, like the golf
course, the base exchange and the commissary,
do not receive appropriated funds from Congress.
Lord said the base will be rebuilt and the
infrastructure will be dramatically improved
because many of the buildings on base were
built in the 1940s. He said new buildings on
base will also improve the chances for the base
to be spared future base closure rounds,
because the commission takes the condition of
facilities into account.
Lord said the information technology office
has about $50 billion per year to work with. The
new job also puts him in budget talks for the
108 Air Force bases.
The new job will not be the first time Lord
has worked in IT. He worked in the White
House during the George H. Bush administration and part of the first Clinton administration
as an communications systems expert.
Lord said one of the ironies of his tenure is
that he first came to Keesler in 1977 as a lieutenant with his wife Cynthia and all the couple
owned was packed into his car, and now since
he lost his home to Katrina, everything he
owns will fit in a car.

HURLEY — Hurricane
Katrina indirectly created a
critical need for blood on the
Gulf Coast.
The American Red Cross
lost the potential to collect
about 2,000 pints of blood
between Aug. 29 to Nov. 29
after about 30 blood drives
were canceled because of the
storm.
That puts a huge dent in
the supply, said Liz Gaulke
of the Red Cross. “It was
almost all the blood drives
on the calendar,” she said.
She said several Coast
casinos, high schools and
communities had to cancel
their drives. Northrop
Grumman Ship Systems
also had to cancel its September blood drive, she said.
Gaulke said the Red Cross
needs organizations, churches and businesses to volunteer to host drives to replenish the blood supply.

LOCAL/STATE
MEMA director: ‘The system failed us’
By JANET BRASWELL
Hattiesburg American
HATTIESBURG — The federal logistics system collapsed in
the days immediately after Hurricane Katrina, leaving emergency agencies with about 15 percent of the supplies they needed, says state civil defense chief
Robert Latham.
“Early on, we just said to heck
with the system and started buying food, water and ice off the
commercial market, wherever we
could get it,” said Latham, director of the Mississippi Emergency
Management Agency.
Latham and Nick Russo, deputy coordinating officer for the
Federal Emergency Management
Agency in Mississippi, talked
Wednesday with the Hattiesburg
American editorial board about
problems and successes in the
aftermath of the Aug. 29 storm.
FEMA representatives arrived
in the state five days before Katrina made landfall and, working
with MEMA, asked for 450
trucks of water, 450 trucks of ice
and 50 trucks of packaged meals
to be on standby for delivery to
affected areas, Latham said.
“If we could have gotten the
commodities in the numbers we
were requesting, it would have
sustained us and gotten us
through some tough times,” he
said.
“There’s no question the system failed us. It failed the FEMA
representatives in the field. We
were getting only 10 to 15 percent.”
The first supplies sent to the
Gulf Coast and New Orleans
weren’t replaced at the staging
areas, creating delays in getting
more commodities to those in
need, Russo said.
“When the magnitude of the
incident began to unfold, what
should be a simple process
broke,” he said. “Once you have a
kink in the system, it takes several days.”
Latham advocates scrapping
the delivery system that is centralized in Washington, D.C., and
localizing it at the state level so
that officials there can keep track
of their orders.
“We can never tell under the
current system where that
request is,” Latham said. “We all
know UPS, FedEx can track, at
any given time, where a package
is. We should be able to do that.”
FEMA and other federal programs, such as the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers’ Blue Roof
project, have helped Hattiesburg
homeowner Pat Dixon.
The roof on her Memphis
Street house is covered with blue
plastic and debris has been
removed from her yard by contractors working for the government, she said. She’s waiting to
find out if she’s eligible for a
Small Business Administration
loan or grant.
“The top of a cedar tree pulled
the electric (connection) all the
way down to the ground and tore
a big hole in the roof,” she said.
While Latham and Russo acknowledge the supply system
failed, they also point to the failure of individuals to prepare
themselves.
“If there is any beauty in
coastal storms, you have eight to
10 days to prepare,” Russo said.
“There’s some personal responsibility we are not reinforcing.
There are functional issues and
social issues — a social issue is
taking responsibility for caring
for yourself and your family.”
The memory of seeing beach
parties in full swing on the Sat-
urday before Katrina made landfall bothers Latham.
“Obviously, we in emergency
management haven’t done a good
job of educating the public,” he
said.
Latham couldn’t provide details on what the agency will do
differently but said Katrina’s
magnitude will change public
education methods.
“What the citizen does with
that information is up to them,”
he said.

Black lawmakers want more
input on Katrina recovery
By JEFFREY McMURRAY
AP
Harrah’s orbit spins at Harrah’s hotel-casino in Las Vegas. Harrah’s Entertainment
Inc., the world’s largest casino company, on Thursday said profit rose 42 percent in
the third quarter, boosted by its acquisition of Caesars Entertainment Inc. and an
increase in gambling.
Harrah’s profits rise
By KEN RITTER
LAS VEGAS — Harrah’s Entertainment Inc.’s acquisition
of Caesars Entertainment
helped the world’s largest gambling company weather hurricane damage to its Gulf Coast
properties and pushed thirdquarter profits up 42 percent.
The company said Thursday
that an increase in gambling
also contributed to a jump in
quarterly income to $169 million, or 91 cents per share from
$118.8 million, or $1.06 per
share, the year before. The lower per-share figure reflected an
increased amount of outstanding stock in the latest period.
“Our newly combined company was tested early and
often,” Gary Loveman, company chairman, chief executive
officer and president said in a
conference call. He said record
revenues for the period ending
Sept. 30 came despite the closure of four Harrah’s properties due to hurricanes Katrina
and Rita.
The Las Vegas-based company put an estimate of $20.8
million on the economic effect
of the hurricanes, including
insurance deductibles. Tim
Wilmott, Harrah’s chief operating officer, said the loss of
earnings cost the company
about 5 cents per share.
Revenue totaled $2.33 billion, a steep 78 percent gain
from $1.31 billion a year earlier but short of analysts’ target
of $2.38 billion.
Adjusted earnings per share,
excluding certain one-time
items, were $1.05, down from
$1.09 in 2004, but topped the
average view of 99 cents per
share from analysts surveyed
by Thomson Financial.
“Overall, not a bad quarter,”
Bear Stearns analyst Joseph
Greff said in a report Thursday. He said Harrah’s met analysts’ expectations for the quarter better than gambling
industry competitors MGM
Mirage and Las Vegas Sands.
MGM Mirage last week
reported its third-quarter net
income dropped to 31 cents per
share from 45 cents per share
a year earlier. Its adjusted
earnings, which don’t include
charges, were 38 cents per
share, short of analysts’ expectation of 41 cents.
Las Vegas Sands on Wednesday reported earnings of 26
cents per share, while analysts
had been expecting 27 cents.
Harrah’s two Mississippi casinos in Biloxi and Gulfport
were destroyed by the hurricanes in August and September. Its riverboat casino at
Donations to Mississippi
military up after Katrina
By HOLBROOK MOHR
On the Net:
JACKSON — Since Hurricane Katrina rattled the Gulf
Coast on Aug. 29, large donations have increased to a fund
for financially strapped families of deployed Mississippi
Guard and Reserve forces.
But, the fund is actually designed to help soldiers whose
financial difficulties arise directly from a deployment, not
from an act of nature, said
retired Sgt. Maj. Ron Graves,
coordinator of the Mississippi
Military Family Relief Fund.
Graves said the hundreds of
military families specifically
seeking hurricane assistance
— or those wanting to help
storm victims — should check
into the Guard’s Hurricane
Katrina Relief Fund set up by
the private, not-for-profit
National Guard Association of
Mississippi.
The state fund “is pretty
broad, where ours is dedicated
solely to victims of the hurricane,” said retired Brig. Gen.
Luke Goodwin, executive director of the National Guard Association of Mississippi. “Every
dollar of our fund is going to
go to some member affected by
the storm.”
Goodwin also said there has
been generous donations to the
hurricane fund, even from people who live in devastated
areas.
“It’s really amazing,” he said.
“I got checks in from people
from the Ocean Springs and
Hattiesburg area, where I know
they were effected by the storm,
too.”
The Mississippi Military Fa-
National Guard Association
of Mississippi: www.ngams.org
mily Relief Fund, on the other
hand, was created by the Legislature during a special session in May to help the thousands of Mississippians who
have been deployed in support
of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“We have received some significant increases in donations.
Some were related to the storm,
some were not,” Graves said.
“But the intent is not to help
hurricane victims. It’s primarily for assisting families who
have developed emergency
financial situations as a direct
result of their deployments.”
And while nearly 600 Mississippi soldiers lost homes or
had property damage during
Hurricane Katrina, Graves said
thousands more face financial
difficulties when they are forced
to leave their civilian jobs for
extended deployments overseas.
“We’ve had some families
that have taken up to a
$100,000-a-year loss in pay
when they deployed,” Graves
said. “That’s quite a hit. We
need to recognize that soldiers,
sailors, airmen and Marines
make sacrifices daily.”
Other families struggle even
more, missing house payments
and falling behind on utility
payments, Graves said. And he
anticipates more requests for
assistance as Christmas nears
and struggling families begin
shopping for loved ones returning from overseas and their
children.
Lake Charles, La., was severely damaged and hasn’t reopened. The company said
plans for a 450-room luxury
hotel at Harrah’s New Orleans
could cost more and take
longer than planned because
of hurricane damage to the
casino site.
Company spokesman Alberto Lopez in Las Vegas said the
full extent of property damage
and business losses remained
unknown, though insurance
should cover most losses.
Harrah’s expects to announce a Gulf Coast rebuilding
program “shortly,” Wilmott told
analysts. The company has
pledged to rebuild in Biloxi,
but it has not committed to
resurrecting its Gulfport
resort.
WASHINGTON — Black
lawmakers Thursday demanded
a greater role in the federal
effort to rebuild the hurricaneravaged Gulf Coast, proposing
legislation that addresses many
social problems they believe the
Republican-led Congress is overlooking.
All 42 U.S. House members of
the Congressional Black Caucus have signed on to the measure, which includes a massive
list of health, housing and education provisions. It also guarantees victims a monetary grant
similar to the ones doled out for
victims of the 9-11 terrorist
attacks.
Caucus Chairman Mel Watt,
D-N.C., said he did not have a
specific cost estimate because
it is unclear exactly how many
Gulf Coast residents have been
forced to relocate, but he floated
$200 billion as a ballpark figure for the overall recovery.
“One of the things we’re worried about is that our government, perhaps, would just as
soon forget about those people
and let them go where they are
and fend for themselves,” Watt
said. “That is inconsistent with
what we said as a nation we
would do for the victims of this
hurricane.”
At a news conference, Watt
and other members of the allDemocratic group suggested
they’ve offered the Bush administration plenty of advice about
the federal response to Hurricane Katrina, but it’s been
largely ignored, even though a
high percentage of the victims
are black.
“It would be the height of irresponsibility on the part of the
president, on the part of this
Republican-led Congress, not to
make sure that the Congressional Black Caucus has a seat
at the table as a strong, genuine partner,” said Rep. David
Scott, D-Ga.
The bill creates a victim
restoration fund, modeled after
the one for terror victims, in
which a special master would
evaluate how much each victim
should be paid in order to
rebuild their homes to “pre-Kat-

rina condition.”
It also provides for grants
that would help rebuild medical facilities and small businesses, pay a year’s worth of
health insurance for each victim and fully fund education
expenses for local school districts that take on new students.
Also included is a measure
proposed earlier by Rep. Artur
Davis, D-Ala., which would let
displaced hurricane victims vote
absentee through the 2008 elections.
The approach of the black
caucus contrasted vividly with
one suggested later in the day
during a forum at the conservative American Enterprise Institute.
Moderator James Glassman
said the government should pay
some limited funds toward displaced individuals and businesses but, otherwise, its job
should be confined to rebuilding infrastructure, such as sewers and roads.

The Alito
nomination
Even for Washington, D.C., the speed with which the
two sides swapped positions on failed Supreme Court
nominee Harriet Miers and the newest nominee,
Samuel Alito, was neck-snapping.
The White House said it was a plus that Miers had
gone to university and law school at Southern
Methodist University, that she would bring to the court
a needed perspective from outside the elitist Ivies.
Prominent in the nomination of Alito was that he had
gone to Princeton and Yale law.
The White House also said it was a plus that Miers,
Bush’s personal attorney and now White House counsel,
had never been a judge. Many distinguished justices did
not have prior experience on the bench, it said. In introducing Alito, Bush boasted that he “has more prior judicial experience than any Supreme Court nominee in
more than 70 years.”
One criticism of Miers was the lack of a paper trail.
The White House refused to turn over her legal memoranda, saying the Senate Judiciary Committee didn’t
need them and the papers were privileged anyway. Alito, said Bush, “has participated in thousands of appeals
and authored hundreds of opinions,” all of which are
available to the committee just for the asking.
Republicans opposed to the Miers nomination wanted
protracted hearings to put off an up-or-down vote as
long as possible in hopes she’d withdraw, as ultimately
she did. Democrats, on the other hand, were happy to
rush the process to embarrass the Republicans.
Now the Republicans are demanding a speedy up-ordown vote. Senate Republican Leader Bill Frist says “in
the next several weeks.” And now it is the Democrats
who are being measured and methodical. Assistant Senate Democratic Leader Dick Durbin says, “Ordinarily it
takes six to eight weeks to evaluate a Supreme Court
nominee. We shouldn’t rush to judgment.”
With Miers, who had no political track record, the
White House assured social conservatives that she was
a red-blooded ideologue who was with them on all the
hot button issues. Alito’s backers take pains to stress
that he is not a zealot, but in the words of GOP Sen.
Mike DeWine, “clearly in the mainstream.”
Fifteen years ago, Democrats like Sen. Ted Kennedy
found that Alito had “a distinguished record” and “a
commendable career” when they unanimously approved
his nomination to the circuit court. Now Kennedy finds
him “extreme” and Senate Democratic Leader Harry
Reid finds him perhaps “too radical for the American
people.”
In the nation’s capital, shamelessness is an art form
practiced by masters.

Shame at the
United Nations
Overshadowed by the recent news of the indictment
of White House aide Lewis “Scooter” Libby was a report
of what seems a bigger scandal: the massive fraud
involved in the United Nations’ oil-for-food program in
Iraq.
A U.N. commission headed by former Federal Reserve
Chairman Paul Volcker reported that, before the U.S.
invasion of Iraq, the brutal regime of Saddam Hussein
had skirted economic sanctions with the help of corrupt
activities by thousands of companies.
As a result, Saddam collected some $1.8 billion
through the program, money that was supposed to have
helped feed starving Iraqis. Several American-run oil
companies were apparently involved, and Marc Rich —
yes, the friend of Bill Clinton pardoned by that president in 2000 — was identified as a middleman.
Most of the lucrative contracts, though, apparently
went to Russian and French companies, which makes it
easier to understand why those countries were so
prominent in bitterly opposing U.S. efforts to constrain
Saddam Hussein.
The Volcker report also maintains that individuals
who sought to sway world opinion against the sanctions
effort were handsomely rewarded by Iraq, including the
notorious anti-American and pro-Saddam British politician George Galloway.
Since the U.N. has no power to go into countries and
punish people, it appears that many of the people
involved in the alleged corruption will never be prosecuted. Many are denying the charges, making the farfetched claim that piles of documents that the Volcker
commission studied are fake.
But it is important to draw some lessons here. Foremost, economic sanctions must be tightly enforced. If
the U.N. is to have credibility — and not simply be
ignored by the United States and other powers — it
must reform its ways and cease being an organization
that is quite so tolerant of brutal and corrupt dictators.
Beyond the global politics is a crime against humanity. Many children starved to death because of the greed
of Saddam, and the eagerness of countries and companies to do business with evil.

Alito’s Casey dissent
displays proper restraint
Will Planned Parenthood v. Casey be
Judge Samuel Alito’s Hedgepeth v. Washington Metro?
You don’t remember Hedgepeth? It was
the infamous “single french fry” case that
was going to be big trouble for Supreme
Court nominee John Roberts last summer. The People for the American Way
said that, in upholding the arrest of “a
12-year-old girl for eating a single french
fry,” Roberts “appeared dismissive of the
serious concerns raised by the use of
police power.”
It didn’t work out
that way. On the contrary, his “subway
snacker” opinion ended up spotlighting his
qualifications for the
high court — his careful reasoning, common sense, humanity
and philosophy of
judicial restraint.
Opponents of Presi- David
Reinhard
dent Bush’s latest
Supreme Court pick
want to make hay of Alito’s dissent in
Planned Parenthood v. Casey, in which he
refused to strike down a law requiring a
wife to notify a husband if she intended
to abort their child. But a fair reading of
Alito’s Casey dissent shows a judge working carefully to respect Supreme Court
precedent — in fact, Sandra Day O’Connor’s own abortion-rights tests — and the
other branches of government.
The facts in Casey: Pennsylvania,
under the leadership of Democratic Gov.
Robert Casey, had passed several limits
on abortion. One required spousal notice
— not consent, but simple notice. A wife
would have to self-certify she had notified her husband that she planned to
have an abortion. The law included
exemptions if the husband wasn’t the
child’s father, if the father couldn’t be
located, if the pregnancy resulted from a
legally reported spousal assault or if
notification might result in bodily harm
to the woman.
Judge Alito’s job wasn’t to pronounce
on the wisdom or of lack of wisdom of
spousal notice laws. It was to determine
two things. Did the state regulation run
afoul of the “undue burden” standard
Justice O’Connor had set out in earlier
cases? If he concluded it didn’t, the next
question was whether the law was
“rationally related” to a “legitimate”
state interest.
“Whether the Legislature’s approach
represents sound public policy is not a
question for us to decide,” he wrote. “Our
task here is simply to decide whether
(the spousal notice requirement) meets
constitutional standards.”
Alito wasn’t making law or expressing
policy choices, he was interpreting
O’Connor’s own standards for state abortion regulation to be constitutional. She
had written that an “undue burden” is
not created by a “regulation (that) may
‘inhibit’ abortions to some degree.”
Rather, an “undue burden” had the effect
of “substantially limiting access” to abortion. Alito concluded that the plaintiffs
failed to show that the spousal notice
requirement, with its exemptions, did so.
With this question answered, Alito
moved to the rational-basis test. He didn’t believe he needed to go into as much
detail on this because, as he noted, the
majority also believed the spousal notice
provision served a “legitimate” interest
— “the state’s interest in furthering the
husband’s interest in the fetus.” But he
did mention something that his critics
should remember in this and other cases:
A law is presumed to pass this test; the
burden is on plaintiffs to show a law is
irrational or arbitrary.
“The Pennsylvania Legislature could
have rationally believed that some married women are initially inclined to
obtain an abortion without their husbands’ knowledge because of perceived
problems — such as economic constraints, future plans or the husbands’
previously expressed opposition — that
may be obviated by discussion prior to
the abortion ...,” Alito wrote. “We have no
authority to overrule that legislative
judgment even if we deem it ‘unwise’ or
worse.”
There it is: The same due deference to
the legislative branch, the same modesty
regarding judicial power that Roberts
exercised in the “single french fry” case.
Will Casey be Alito’s Hedgepeth? Will
it be quickly forgotten once its principled
jurisprudence is fully understood?
Probably not. Unlike Roberts’ case, Alito’s dissent is about abortion — the alpha
and omega for people who are less interested in legal reasoning and judicial philosophy than results-based jurisprudence. Abortion-rights absolutists who’ve
never met a limit on abortion they favor
will flog his dissent to death.
But will the Casey case have confirmation-killing resonance? Probably not.
First, there are other Alito abortion cases
that his opponents fail to mention. In
Planned Parenthood v. Farmer, for
example, he joined with the court in
overturning a New Jersey ban on partialbirth abortions. Again, he was trying to
apply Supreme Court precedent.
Second, it will be hard convincing the
public it’s “radical,” “extreme” or “out of
the mainstream” for a judge to uphold a
law that says husbands are relevant to
decisions related to their unborn children. A 1988 poll of women for Good
Housekeeping found that 90.9 percent
said husbands should have the right to
participate in the abortion decision.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Enough of
pompous bureaucrats
To the editor:
After a third visit to Pelican Landing
in Moss Point, to apply for a federal
loan, I chose to use the public restroom
in that building. However, I was stopped
by an official and a federal police officer
who informed me that the public restroom was only for government employees and I was to use a row of portable
toilets set outside the building.
I explained to these obnoxious fellows
that as a Moss Point taxpayer I figured
that the building belonged to me so I
could make myself at home.
But I lost the argument. So this seems
to be the bizarre situation. The bureaucrats in that building are well paid, get
free room and board, have a great job,
great benefits, a house to go back to and
great looking vehicles behind the build-
ing. And we pay for it all.
On the other hand, most of those the
“bureaucrats” are “serving” have severely damaged or no homes, no jobs and no
transportation. Katrina has evicted us
from our private homes. Now federal
bureaucrats have the gall to evict us
from our public places.
I know that the use of a restroom is a
silly issue in such a human tragedy.
But what such pettiness really symbolizes is the arrogance and indifference
shown by too many bureaucrats.
Perhaps the manager of the federal
team at Pelican Landing, who would not
talk to me, would like to explain why he
is royalty and the rest of us folks are
second-class citizens. It’s too bad too
many pompous bureaucrats make all
the others look so selfish and shallow.
Dr. Calvin S. Ennis
Escatawpa
WASHINGTON — Let’s say you’re a
bright young man or woman who decides to
attend the University of Michigan’s highly
regarded law school with the hope of some
day reaching the pinnacle of jurisprudence,
the United States Supreme Court.
If that’s your ambition, the best advice
would be to forget it.
Study hard, graduate magna or summa
and Law Review and all that academically
important stuff and it won’t make a wit’s
worth of difference. The odds of your succeeding even after a distinguished legal
career are slim to none unless you have
had the benefit of the Ivy League generally
and Harvard or Yale specifically. It is a rare
exception when anything else counts —
maybe Stanford or the
University of Chicago,
but certainly not, ugh,
Southern Methodist
University where poor
Harriet Miers learned
to be a lawyer.
Assuming that the
current nominee to fill
out the court, Samuel
Dan
Alito, wins confirmation
after what promises to Thomasson
be one of those patented
Senate knock-down drag-outs, the current
score of the annual SCOTUS intramural
football game would be Harvard, 6, Yale, 2
with Chicago U’s representative, John Paul
Stevens, serving as water boy.
So for any mother out there who would
like to brag about “my son the justice,”
don’t let them him up dreaming about
Berkeley or Madison, Wis., or Baton Rouge,
La. Throw in the fact that African Americans and women both will be outnumbered
8 to 1 on the court and that Hispanic Americans, the largest of our minorities, aren’t
even present and the odds of being anything but white, male and “boola, boola”
and reaching those hallowed chambers are
really long. Oh, yeah. It also helps to have
had some lower bench experience, preferably federal.
Rather makes one concerned about the
fitness of the court to hand down rulings on
forced diversity and similar issues, doesn’t
it? In fact, it makes one nervous about
most everything the court decides given
that all these guys with the exception of
Stevens and soon to be the one remaining
female, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, have been
indoctrinated by essentially the same faculty. Actually, Ginsberg did attend Harvard
law but graduated from an Ivy sister,
Columbia.
Frankly, if I wanted to influence the
nation’s highest court, I would seek a position teaching at Harvard or Yale. At the
very least, I could revel about all those
important people who owe me their fame
— but not their fortune because they get
paid by the government. One can only wonder how often faculty lunches end in
fisticuffs over bragging rights.
Most disturbing about all this is that
President Bush, after promising to look
beyond the federal bench and into differing
ethnic groups and state supreme courts
and so forth, fell right back into the same
old cookie cutter profile for his two nominations. He did give it a half hearted try with
a bit of cronyism, but Miers was a dumb
appointment, and in the long run she was
smart enough to take herself out of the
maelstrom.
So Alito, who has punched all the right
tickets along the way and is thought to be
conservative, now faces a Senate whose
atmosphere is as politically poisonous as
any in recent memory. Republican majority
leaders engender little respect and their
Democratic counterparts seem only interested in hamstringing the legislative
process until next year’s congressional elections. The onetime gentlemen’s club seems
to have degenerated into a daily clubhouse
brawl between the Crips and the Bloods.
Any Bush appointee who needs confirmation and doesn’t suffer from masochistic
tendencies might want to reconsider.
Alito, who went through this process
with ease for his lower court nomination,
now faces an entirely different prospect,
with some of those who praised him in the
earlier instance ready to eviscerate him
now. Hopefully, he has warned his proud
family about what daddy will be facing
over the next weeks. But then Yale must
have prepared him for this. They must
have a class in how to confound a Senate
committee with the old “Razzle Dazzle” —
sorry, Bob Fosse. They certainly would at
Michigan if they had a chance in the high
court sweepstakes. But then their Midwestern approach to law always has been a
bit more practical and less theoretical than
their Ivy contemporaries.
As the brother, father and uncle of successful attorneys, I’ve always been glad
they harbored no ambitions about service
on a court that doesn’t even require a law
degree.

Libby pleads not guilty in CIA leak inquiry
By PETE YOST
WASHINGTON — Vice President Dick
Cheney’s former chief of staff pleaded not
guilty to a five-count felony indictment Thursday in the CIA leak case, signaling a protracted court battle that is sure to prolong
debate about the White House’s prewar use of
intelligence on Iraq.
I. Lewis Libby appeared at his arraignment
with trial lawyers Ted Wells and William Jeffress, known for their ability to win jury acquittals for high-profile clients in white-collar
criminal cases.
“With respect, your honor, I plead not guilty,”
Libby told U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton,
a former prosecutor who has spent two decades
as a judge in the nation’s capital.
Cheney and other top White House officials
could be called to testify if Libby goes to trial.
He is charged with obstruction of justice, two
counts of lying to the FBI and two counts of
committing perjury before a federal grand jury.
Recovering from a foot injury, Libby leaned
his crutches against a lectern from which
lawyers normally question witnesses or
address the court.
“He has declared to the world that he is
innocent,” Wells said outside the courthouse
after the 10-minute session. “He wants to clear
his good name, and he wants a jury trial.”
Libby’s indictment has enabled Democrats to
raise anew questions about the Bush administration’s primary justification for invading
Iraq, the incorrect assertion that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.
Libby was charged with lying to investigators and the grand jury about leaking the CIA
status of covert CIA officer Valerie Plame to
reporters. Plame’s CIA status was exposed
after her husband, former U.S. Ambassador
Joseph Wilson, accused the administration of
twisting intelligence in the run-up to the war
to exaggerate the Iraqi threat from weapons of
mass destruction.
Wilson made his accusation after a CIAsponsored trip to Africa in which he said he

the CIA leak scandal.

found no evidence to support the allegation
that Iraq had an agreement to acquire uranium from Niger.
Bush told the nation on Jan. 28, 2003, that
“the British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.” The Bush
administration later said the passage should
have been taken out of the president’s address.
In court in Washington, Libby waived his
right to a speedy trial. It will take his legal
team three months to get security clearances
and to examine classified information that the
prosecution must produce to the defense.
Jeffress said there may be disputes over
the use of classified information and that
there may be First Amendment issues. He
was referring to the fact that journalists are
among the case’s central witnesses.
Legal experts say there could be demands
for reporters’ notes and Libby’s lawyers could
demand the government turn over an extensive amount of classified information from
the CIA about Plame’s covert status.
The indictment says Libby got information
about Plame’s identity in June 2003 from
Cheney, the State Department and the CIA,
then spread it to New York Times reporter
Judith Miller and Time magazine reporter
Matt Cooper. Libby told FBI agents and a
federal grand jury that his information had
come from NBC reporter Tim Russert.
Russert says he and Libby never discussed
Wilson or his wife.
The exposure of Plame’s CIA identity by
conservative columnist Robert Novak triggered the probe that resulted in Libby’s indictment.
The next court date for Libby is Feb. 3.
Senate wrapping up $34B budget cut bill
By ANDREW TAYLOR
WASHINGTON — A plan to
impose the first cuts since 1997
to benefit programs like
Medicare, Medicaid and farm
subsidies headed for a Senate
vote Thursday that could give
Republicans a modest victory
against rising government
spending.
Every Democrat opposed the
measure, but GOP support
seemed firm since the bill had
few cuts that swing vote moderates found offensive.
The bill covers dozens of programs and does not make
major cuts to the Medicare and
Medicaid programs for the elderly and for the poor and disabled. It also contains a hotly
contested provision to open an
Alaskan wilderness area to oil
drilling.
The Senate bill is estimated
to trim $34 billion from budget
deficits totaling $1.6 trillion
over five years — just 2 percent. For the plan’s first year,
with deficits predicted to
exceed $300 billion, the cuts
total $6 billion.
Still, Republicans say the
debate marks an important
moment for their party, which
gained control of Congress 11
years ago with promises to balance the budget. The return of
intractable deficits and surg-
ing spending has caused many
Republicans heartburn over
their record on spending and
budget deficits.
The long-planned budget
measure would make the first
cuts to so-called mandatory
programs since 1997. These
account for 55 percent of the
budget and include Medicare,
Medicaid, farm subsidies and
student loan subsidies.
The White House strongly
supports the overall effort, but
has threatened to veto the bill
over an obscure provision to
kill subsidies for some regional
health insurers offering
Medicare prescription drug coverage. The White House stand
threatens $5.4 billion in savings.
Democrats are united in
opposition to the bill because it
both permits drilling in the
Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
and increases the deficit once
coupled with a subsequent $70
billion tax cut bill.
“Their budget ... actually
would make the deficit worse,”
said Minority Leader Harry
Reid, D-Nev. “That’s fiscally
irresponsible at any time, but
especially when we should be
saving to prepare for the baby
boomers’ retirement.”
Across the Capitol, the
House Budget Committee
approved a $54 billion deficit-
reduction bill by a party-line
vote. But so many GOP lawmakers are unhappy with the
bill that Republican leaders
acknowledge it will have to be
reworked before a final floor
vote next week. It appears
increasingly likely that House
GOP leaders will drop the Arctic oil drilling plan from their
bill and revisit it in final
House-Senate talks.
House moderates are also
opposed to cuts in a variety of
social programs, especially food
stamps, child support enforcement and Medicaid.
The Senate bill reflects the
influence of moderates providing swing votes in the chamber
and on key committees such as
the finance panel, which drafted provisions curbing the
growth in Medicaid and
Medicare, the federal health
care programs for the poor and
the elderly.
As a result, the Senate’s
Medicare and Medicaid cuts
largely won’t touch beneficiaries of the programs, instead
tapping drug companies, pharmacies and insurance subsidies for much of the savings.
The Agriculture Committee
dropped plans to cut food
stamps.
There’s also plenty of sugar
to go along with the fiscal medicine. The bill contains about
Senate clears measure setting digital TV deadline
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Senate moved the digital TV
transition one step closer to
reality on Thursday, setting a
firm date for television broadcasters to switch to all-digital
transmissions.
Lawmakers gave broadcasters until April 7, 2009, to end
their traditional analog transmissions. The so-called “hard
date” was included in a sweeping budget bill.
The bill also would provide
$3 billion to help millions of
Americans buy digital-to-analog
converter boxes for their older
television sets — so those consumers will continue to receive
a signal once the switch is
made permanent.
Legislation approved last
month by the House Energy
and Commerce Committee calls
for a Dec. 31, 2008, deadline
and provides nearly $1 billion
for the converter boxes.
Differences between the
measures would need to be
worked out in a House-Senate
conference.
In the Senate, an amendment by Republican John
Ensign of Nevada that would

have reduced the converter box
subsidy to $1 billion was withdrawn. Spokesman Jack Finn
said Ensign was concerned that
the $2 billion in savings would
be spent on other projects
instead of deficit reduction.
Digital television promises
sharper pictures and better
sound than analog TV.

Broadcasters president Eddie
Fritts said the 2009 deadline

$35 billion in new spending to
go along with the cuts.
The nation’s doctors would
get an $11 billion reprieve next
year from a scheduled 4.3 percent cut in their Medicare payments. Dairy farmers won a $1
billion extension of milk income
payments. College students
would get more than $8 billion
in new grants, and more disabled children would retain
Medicaid health coverage.
Senators also approved a
$2.7 billion plan by Mike Enzi,
R-Wyo., and Edward M.
Kennedy, D-Mass., to lower
student loan processing fees
and provide aid to students and
schools in hurricane zones. It
passed after the Senate rejected, 31-68, a bid by conservatives to make much of the aid
available through school vouchers.

sites to be ready. The last site
on the list, the Ocean Springs
Civic Center, will be ready for
trailers by Dec. 24.
Pascagoula will have a total
of 11 sites with about 770 trailers. Moss Point and Escatawpa
will have three sites with an
estimated 210 trailers, and
Ocean Springs, Fountainebleau
and St. Martin will have three
sites with about 201 trailers.
These numbers are part of the
Jackson County group sites’
forecast, released Thursday.
In addition to Vancleave, one
location on Dolphin Drive in
Gautier will accommodate
close to 200 families. Negotiations for the property, located
between city hall and Lowe’s on
U.S. 90, are underway, Green
said. Trailers are expected to be
ready for occupancy in Gautier
by Dec. 21.
“We’re getting there,” Green
said. “I just wish we could get
them in faster.”
The numbers for trailers at
these sites continue to change,
since new data is being reported to FEMA and the housing
branch from the American Red
Cross and the Carnival Holiday
cruise ship, which currently
houses 1,400 Katrina evacuees.
The cities and the county
evaluate different sites for the
possibility of use as an site.
Once sites are proposed, the
Army Corps of Engineers performs an environmental analysis. Finally, the negotiation
process is conducted by FEMA.

Zoning
From Page 1-A
Throughout the meeting, zoning became a hot topic.
“One of the reasons this is
important,” Sones said, “is one
of the counties on the Coast has
already begun issuing building
permits. The governor has
expressed a concern that building codes and zoning meet necessary standards and are
approached in the right way.
Over the next four years, we
expect between 3,000 to 5,000
new homes to be built, which is
three to four times more than
the largest single homebuilding
year we have ever experienced.
The concerns about how these
homes are built include how
they will impact both lender and
insurer rates. At this point the
flood plains have not yet been
established. If we start rebuilding wrong and with this influx
of new homes, we will not
achieve the greatest value for
our property.”
John “Bud” Plisich, a civil
engineer for FEMA, addressed
the need for coding and zoning.
“Who is looking out for your
interests without zoning and
building codes?” he asked. “How
do you know buildings are being
constructed to appropriate standards?”
He spoke about two-year, fiveyear and 10-year weather
events and communities with
buildings suffering damage from
two-year and five-year weather events. He went on to say
that George County buildings
should be designed to withstand
120 to 130 mph winds and the
wind speeds in George County
during Hurricane Katrina were
significantly less than that. He
spoke about the need to make
sure buildings and roof systems
could withstand those speeds
and there was no way to do that
without adequate codes and
code enforcement. He said that
codes needed to include fire,
plumbing, sewage and drainage
systems.
“You are getting shortchanged
if you are not having someone
look out for your interests,” he
said.
Sones assured the group that
the commission was not going to
dictate codes and zoning. He
said the commission was offering the resources of “the best
minds” in these fields to assist
local officials develop what they
felt was necessary.
Gov. Haley Barbour established the commission shortly
after the hurricane hit and
charged it to “develop a broad
vision for a better Gulf Coast
and South Mississippi,” according to the commission’s Web
site. “The commission focuses
on giving local leaders access to
ideas and information that will
help them decide what their
region will look like in five, 10,
even 20 or 30 years from now.”
Information on the Web site
also said the commission is not
receiving any federal funding
and solicits no money. All funding is coming from private donations.
“The commission has approx-
imately 40 members, many of
them public officials, from the
six southern tier counties most
severely affected by the storm,”
according to Lucedale Mayor
Dayton Whites. “Most of the
commissioners are from the
three Gulf Coast counties with
two from Pearl River County,
one from Stone County and one
from George County.”
Whites is the George County
commissioner. He, in turn, has
put together a committee to
work with the public in drafting
a recovery and renewal plan for
George County that will become
a part of the overall six county
plan.
The members of the George
County committee include the
members of the George County
Board of Supervisors; the
Lucedale Board of Aldermen;
and Lorraine Howell, Mike
Steede, Jeff Howell, Tom Harlon, Cathy Davidson, Bill Wilkerson, Charlie Calhoun, Doris
Alexander, Donnie Howell,
Kathy Johnson, Mike Smith,
Sue Wright, Darwin Maples,
Jim Corley, Lisa Smith, James
Whittington, Charlie Garretson
and Jessie Ludgood.
“The purpose of the committee,” Whites said, “is to draft a
renewal wish list for the county
with the benefit of public input.
This wish list will be submitted to the Governor’s Commission for determination on what
may or may not qualify for
grant funding.”
Representatives from the Federal Emergency Management
Agency were on hand as well
as Ken Sones, who works as the
commission’s coordinator for
George and Stone counties.
The committee members
expressed a number of concerns
they said were important for
the county’s renewal.
These included a discussion
of a lake for both recreational
and reservoir purposes, a visitor
center and nursery experimental station, development of the
Pascagoula River, removing
vision obstructing utility poles
on Main Street, more and better
housing for low-income people,
evacuation routes, attaining
Certified Retirement Center
status for the city, the Lucedale
Greenway project, a community
center, a sports complex, transportation, development of the
industrial park, a public owned
golf course, bike trails on Section 16 land and the expected
influx of new people into the
county.
One of the issues addressed
was if there were going to be
funds available to pay for these
projects.
Sones said money would be
available. He said there are
more than 300 federal grants
may be available for the six
counties, totaling $30 million.
Whites expressed the desire
that as many residents of
George County as possible
attend this very important public meeting.

approached and in the first
days after the storm, when
New Orleans descended into
chaos.
She did not appoint her
rebuilding commission until
weeks after the storm, by
which time the Mississippi
recovery group had already
held its first meetings. And
only now is she bringing
Louisiana lawmakers into session to work on hurricane
reconstruction. The session
opens Sunday.
“Louisiana is bleeding to
death and there has been no
stoppage of the bleeding. That
is uniquely and specifically the
governor ’s job, and I don’t
think Kathleen Blanco, personally or otherwise, is up to
the task and may never be
again,” said Elliott Stonecipher,
a Louisiana pollster and political analyst.
Political analysts warn that
it is too early to write anyone
off or declare someone’s future
is assured. But in Katrina’s
aftermath, it is clear that in
the two neighboring states, one
governor’s political stock has
gone up, while the other’s has
fallen precipitously.
In Blanco’s defense, analysts
note that she does not enjoy
the same buddy-buddy relationship that Barbour has with
President Bush. During one of
the president’s trips to Louisiana, Blanco learned of
Bush’s schedule from reporters,
not from the White House. And
if Blanco seemed overwhelmed
by Katrina, she was not alone.
“George Bush seems overwhelmed by it all, too,” said
Joseph Parker, a University of
Southern Mississippi political
scientist.
In many ways, Blanco and
Barbour are dealing with two
very different disasters created
by Katrina, which roared
ashore Aug. 29.
In Mississippi, the storm
obliterated whole coastal communities, smashed waterfront
casinos and left tens of thousands homeless. Most victims,
however, are still living near
their former homes, though in
tents or government trailers.

Gov. Haley Barbour signs legislation that will allow casinos
that were devastated by Hurricane Katrina to be rebuilt on
solid ground in Biloxi. Because of Barbour's take-charge
approach to the hurricane disaster, even some of Mississippi's staunchest Democrats are saying he may be tough to
beat if he seeks a second term in 2007.
AP File Photo
Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco leaves a meeting in New
Orleans, with Louisiana Lt. Gov. Mitch Landrieu, left, and
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, background center. Some
pundits suspect Blanco, a Democrat, could prove to be a
one-termer when she comes up for re-election in 2007.
In Louisiana, Katrina devastated a major American city,
trapped thousands in hellish
conditions and forced a halfmillion people from their
homes. Many of them are still
scattered around the country,
and New Orleans remains
mostly shut down. Katrina
killed at least 1,050 people in
Louisiana and 228 in Mississippi.
A second hurricane, Rita,
dealt Louisiana a follow-up
blow on Sept. 24.
Barbour charged ahead after
Katrina, calling Mississippi
lawmakers into a nine-day special session starting Sept. 27
to take up recovery issues,
including a bill, now signed
into law, to let casinos move
off the water and rebuild on
dry land.
In what could be seen as
slaps at Louisiana, Barbour
likes to say that Mississippians are “not into victimhood,”
and he boasts that they are
“hitching up their britches” and
taking charge of their own
recovery.
Mississippi state Rep. Bobby
Moak, a Democrat, strongly
opposes Barbour’s positions on
such issues as Medicaid and
education. But on Katrina,
Moak said: “I have to say
Haley has done a pretty good
job of putting his arms around
the issue.”
Moak said Democrats would
have a tough time against Barbour now, but noted that the
election is two years away, and
“six months is a lifetime in politics.”
Many of the early assessments of Blanco’s performance
after Katrina were dismal.
Blanco blamed the late
appointment of her rebuilding
commission on Hurricane Rita,
and has dismissed much of the
criticism as “a little bit of high
politics.”
Others say Blanco’s response
to Rita was much more
assertive. She marshaled state
assets, requested federal assistance and pushed for a big
evacuation of southwestern
Louisiana.
“At first her performance
was a disaster, and she and
her own people recognize it,
but I’ve noticed the change,”
said Larry Sabato, a political
scientist at the University of
Virginia. “She’s projecting a
more decisive image. She’s taking very responsible actions
and stances.”

BRIEFS
Katrina brings winds of change to New Orleans schools
BATON ROUGE, La. — Almost all New
Orleans public schools, now closed
because of Hurricane Katrina, could eventually be reopened by the state as charter
schools under proposed legislation to wrest
power from the city’s fractious school board.
Gov. Kathleen Blanco outlined the proposal Thursday at the same news conference where state education officials
released figures showing 68 of 110 New
Orleans schools operating before Katrina
were failing, earning a label of “academically unacceptable” based on testing.
The state already can take over perennially failing schools. Under Blanco’s proposal, any New Orleans school with a performance score below the state average of 86.2
could be taken over by state officials and
handed off to independent operators as
charter schools. The proposal would bring
the number of New Orleans schools that
would be eligible for takeover by the state to
97. (Rural St. Helena Parish, where two of
three schools are failing, would also be cov-
lawyers tried to persuade U.S. District
Judge Eldon Fallon to restrict Murphy from

In recent weeks, Murphy has approached
residents and businesses to urge them to

to their properties.
George Frilot, a Murphy lawyer, said the

Such a large-scale takeover would be a
daunting task, but Katrina gives the state a
chance to ease into the job. The storm hit
Aug. 29, killing more than 1,000 people,
flooding most of the city and displacing an
estimated 1.5 million people, at least temporarily. Enrollment in New Orleans schools
was around 60,000 before the storm. Now,
a survey shows only about 3,700 are
expected to return when the first schools
reopen, perhaps later this month. It is
uncertain how fast others will come back.

The Pascagoula Panthers
knocked off the Region 4-5A
front runner last week on the
road, but PHS head coach
Dan Bland says that game is
over.
“The win over Ocean
Springs was nice, but that
game is over,” Bland said.
“We have to focus now on
Harrison Central, because
they have a very solid team.”
The Pascagoula offense has
come to life the last two
weeks as the Panthers have
put together consecutive wins
for the first time since the
beginning of last season.
Sophomore quarterback Cal
Mitchell and

Jonathon

Mitchell
for that success
as
Deflanders has topped the
100 yard mark in the last
three games and Mitchell
tossed three touchdowns in
the 33-32 win over Ocean
Springs last week.
“We knew coming into the
season Jonathon was going
to be a solid player,” Bland
said of his sophomore rusher.
“We probably should’ve
played him a little more earlier in the season, but we
knew he was going to be a
big factor for us.”
Deflanders and senior
Chris Blythe have helped
ignite an offense that scored
just six points in two games
to start the season.
The Panthers are looking
up at the rest of division for a
playoff spot after losing to
Gulfport and George County
to start the region schedule.

Blanks big in season finale
By JR. WITTNER
PASCAGOULA — Gautier senior quarterback Julius
Blanks will remember his final homecoming game.
Blanks completed 12-of-22 passes for 322 yards and
four touchdowns and scored on a 5-yard run as Gautier
topped Vancleave 43-16 Thursday night, finishing the
Region 7-4A standings with a perfect 6-0 mark.
Gautier (7-1) will host either Petal or Quitman next
Saturday at 6 p.m. in the opening round of the playoffs.
Gautier got on the board first with 5:00 left in the opening quarter as Blanks connected on an 83-yard touchdown to Jimmy Rowster on the first play of its third drive
and Chris Penton added the PAT to make it a 7-0 Gators
lead.
Vancleave then took advantage of a Gautier fumble as
they drove 63-yards leading to a Shane Scheiman 23-yard
field goal for a 7-3 game.
Gautier then had some luck go its way as Jonathan
Massey rambled for 12 yards on a botched punt snap,
which the Gators turned into a touchdown two plays later
as Issac Cherry took a swing pass and raced 52-yards for
the score.
“We got ahead early in the game and didn’t get complacent and we were able to put the game away at the end,”
Gautier head coach Don Nelson said. “They players continued to work hard all game and we got some nice plays.”
On Gautier’s next possession, Blanks did the damage
with his legs as he scored on a 5-yard run to make it a 213 game, and then followed that up with a 65-yard strike to
Stennis Butler for a score. Chris Penton rushed in the
two-point conversion to give Gautier a 29-7 halftime lead.
“Gautier has a lot of speed on defense and makes big
plays on offense,” Vancleave head coach Jim Bloomfield
said. “They showed that again tonight.”
Vancleave found a way to get back in the game in the
third quarter as Seth Borries scored on a 2-yard run and
after recovering the onside kick, Nick Dubuisson scored
from 3-yards out to make it a 29-16 game with 1:48 left in
the quarter.
Gautier’s offense struck quick once again as it took only
four plays for Blanks to find Rowster on a 45-yard touchdown.
“Jimmy and I have developed a good chemistry,” Blanks
said. “I know that if I give him a chance to catch it, he’s
probably going to.”
The Gators put a stamp on the game in the fourth quarter as Matt Nelson scored on a 12-yard run with 1:50 left.
Rowster finished the game with 125 yards receiving on
three catches.
Borries led the way for Vancleave with 122 yards on
the ground.
Vancleave now must wait for the outcome of tonight’s
game between Forrest County and St. Martin. If St. Martin loses, the Bulldogs get the No. 4 seed, but if the Yellowjackets win, St. Martin will get the No. 4 seed and
face 4A No. 1 Wayne County.

Rebels, Tigers tangle
in key division battle
■ George County tries to
stay perfect in Region 4-5A
tonight against Moss Point
By JR. WITTNER
The Mississippi Press File photo
Jordan Scott (4) and the George County Rebels hit the road to Dantzler
Stadium in Moss Point tonight for a key Region 4-5A showdown with the
Tigers at 7:30 p.m.
The George County Rebels find
themselves in familiar territory, but it
still is a little surprising.
After claiming four consecutive
Region 7-4A titles, the Rebels sit in
first place in the Region 4-5A standing
with two games left to play.
The tricky part for the Rebels is, it
is probably the two toughest teams
in the region.
The Rebels (6-2, 5-0) travel to Dantzler Stadium tonight to battle with
Moss Point, before ending the season
with a home date against defending
5A South State champ Ocean Springs.
“These last two games will be a
major challenge for us because we’re
going to play against the big boys,”
George County football coach Al Jones
said. “We’ll have to take one game at
a time, so right now Moss Point is
our focus.
“Moving up to 5A, we know right
know we have a good chance to make
the playoffs, but we still have a chance
to be number one in the division,”
Jones said.
The Rebels have not lost a game
since a set back to Niceville, Fla., reeling off five straight wins to take hold
of the region race. The Rebels and
Tigers have not met since 1992, but
this will be the first game of many
yet to come.
Moss Point comes into the game
clicking on all cylinders.
The Tigers (5-3, 4-1) have won three
straight since losing to Ocean Springs,
winning all three by at least 20 points.
“I think our early season schedule is
finally paying off,” Moss Point head
coach Jerry Alexander said. “We are
playing with a lot of confidence and it
is really showing on the field. Playing
those tough teams to start the season, makes us better and makes us
feel like we can compete against any
team we face.”

Greyhounds look to get back on track
■ Ocean Springs’ football
coach Steve Jones calls
Gulfport game a ‘must
win’ for team
By JOSH JOHNSON
Due to their stunning 33-32 loss to
Pascagoula last weekend, Saturday’s
1:30 p.m. showdown at Gulfport has
become a must win for the No. 7 Ocean
Springs Greyhounds (5-2,4-1).
The ’Hounds still control its destiny
in Region 4-5A, but a
slip up over the the
next two weeks will
hurt Ocean Springs’
chances of winning
the division, with
George County next
on its schedule after
the Admirals (3-3, 3Jones
2).
Football
coach
Steve Jones said his team realizes
what’s at stake, and is ready to take
back the winning momentum it had
before last weekend.
“This game has become a must-win
for us and Gulfport,” said Jones. “We
still have our goals of winning the division ahead of us, but we need to win
the next two weeks.
“We need to take one step at a time,
and that starts with getting back in
the win column. The team realizes losing to Pascagoula hurts because they
were one play away fron winning the
game, but they’re ready to get back
on the field,” Jones said.
The Admirals will also be looking to
get back in the win column after its 3818 loss to Moss Point last Friday night.
Jones said his team must focus on the
Admirals offense in hopes of coming
home with the win. Gulfport quarterback Gary Holliman had 279 total
yards against the Tigers.
“They have a good offensive team
over there,” Jones said about Gulfport.
“They throw the ball all over the field,
so we’re going to have to do a good job
of keeping their offense off the field.”
Jones added that an extra day to

Pacers get by
Heat, 105-102
MIAMI — Jermaine O’Neal scored 27 points,
six of them in the final three minutes to help the
Indiana Pacers recover from wasting a 14-point
second-half lead and beat the Miami Heat 105102 on Thursday night.
Ron Artest, in his first post-suspension game
in Miami, added 22 for the Pacers — who’ve
won 13 of their last 14 regular-season meetings
with Miami.
Dwyane Wade had 31 points and 10 assists
for the Heat, but his potentially game-tying 3pointer rattled out as the final buzzer sounded.
Shaquille O’Neal had 18 points and six
rebounds before leaving midway through the
fourth quarter with a sprained right ankle.
Stephen Jackson’s two free throws with 1:37
left gave Indiana a 103-97 lead, but the Heat
answered with five points in the next 29 seconds. Wade hit a 3-pointer, and Udonis Haslem
put back Gary Payton’s miss with 1:08 left to
draw Miami within 103-102.
Jermaine O’Neal made two free throws with
50.1 seconds left, and Miami wouldn’t score
again. Antoine Walker dribbled out of bounds
with 29 seconds left, costing the Heat a key
opportunity.
Jamaal Tinsley had 13 points, and Austin
Croshere and Jackson each had 11 for Indiana.
Haslem had 14 points, while Walker and Alonzo
Mourning each scored 12 for Miami.
FOOTBALL
No. 24 Louisville handles Pitt
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Michael Bush rushed
for 115 yards and two touchdowns and Art Carmody tied a school record with four field goals
as No. 24 Louisville survived a wild start and
beat Pittsburgh 42-20 on Thursday night.
Louisville (6-2, 2-2 Big East Conference) has
won two straight after losing its first two league
games and temporarily falling out of the top 25.
The Cardinals became bowl-eligible with the
win in front of a record crowd of 42,692 at Papa
John’s Cardinal Stadium.
Pitt (4-5, 3-2) had a three-game winning
streak snapped. The Panthers must win their
final two games, against Connecticut and No.
18 West Virginia, if they are to extend their
streak of consecutive bowl appearances to six.
BASEBALL
Nationals send Castilla to Padres for
Lawrence, cash
WASHINGTON — Third baseman Vinny
Castilla was traded by the Washington Nationals to the San Diego Padres for right-hander
Brian Lawrence and cash Thursday night.
The move paves the way for Ryan Zimmerman, the No. 4 overall pick in June’s amateur
draft, to start at third for the Nationals next season.
The Padres have long been looking for help
at third. Sean Burroughs struggled so badly he
was sent to the minors in July when San Diego
acquired Joe Randa in a trade with Cincinnati.
Randa filed for free agency after the season.
The 38-year-old Castilla, hampered by knee
tendinitis last season, hit .253 with 12 home
runs and 66 RBIs in his first season with the
former Expos. He led the NL in RBIs with Colorado in 2004, and signed a $6.2 million, twoyear deal as a free agent with Washington last
offseason.
But with Zimmerman’s emergence — he hit
.397 with 10 doubles in 58 at-bats as a September call-up — Castilla’s status in Washington
wasn’t certain. Late in the season, Castilla said
he didn’t want to stay in Washington if he’d be a
backup.
Lawrence went 7-15 with a 4.83 ERA in 33
starts for San Diego in 2005. He struck out 109
batters and walked 57 in his 195 2-3 innings.

Ali treated for neck and back condition
BERRIEN SPRINGS, Mich. — Muhammad
Ali was treated for a back and neck condition,
and is now undergoing follow-up physical therapy.
Ali spokesman Craig Bankey said Thursday
that the former heavyweight champion, treated
at Emory University in Atlanta, will return to his
regular routine of public appearances when
therapy is completed.
Ali will be at the grand opening of the
Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Ky., on Nov.
19, Bankey said in a statement. Ali’s office was
responding to recent published reports concerning his health.
The 63-year-old Ali has Parkinson’s disease.
“Like Parkinson’s patients around the world,
Muhammad faces challenges each day,”
Bankey said. “He continues to fight Parkinson’s
disease with the same courage and dedication
he brought to the ring and to his work aimed at
alleviating poverty, hunger and intolerance.”
E-Mail: Benson won’t return to Baton Rouge
■ Saints’ owner says
message sent out of
frustration
NEW ORLEANS — The
New Orleans Saints say owner
Tom Benson has not yet decided whether he will attend this
Sunday’s game, and that an email he sent saying he would
not attend any more games in
Baton Rouge this season or
next was sent out of frustration.
Saints spokesman Greg
Bensel said Benson was upset
by his treatment from fans
after the Saints’ 21-6 loss to
Miami on Sunday.
Benson, who attended the
game with his wife, Gayle,
granddaughter Rita Benson
LeBlanc and grandson Ryan
LeBlanc, was involved in an
altercation with a WWL-TV
cameraman and a fan as the
owner and his family left the
stadium near the end of the
game.
“Mr. Benson did write a message Sunday night to the commissioner expressing his con-
cern about the incident that
occurred following the game,”
Bensel said. “It was an emotional and distressing situation
and very unfortunate for him
and his family. His comments
to the commissioner relayed
his frustration and at this time
he has not yet made a decision
on his plans for this weekend’s
game.”
Copies of the e-mail, sent to
NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue, were obtained by The
Times-Picayune and WWL-TV
in New Orleans.
In the e-mail, Benson called
security at Tiger Stadium
“inadequate to nonexistent”
and claimed that he and his
family members “could have
all been severely injured or
killed.”
“I will not return to Baton
Rouge for any reason, including
any games scheduled for the
end of this season or a contemplated next season,” Benson
said in the e-mail. “No person,
much less the owner of NFL
team, should have either he,
his family or his friends subjected to this form of danger,
intimidation and abuse. I was
advised not to go but wanted to
support the league.”
LSU Police Chief Ricky
Adams said his department
had a regularly scheduled conference call with officials from
the Saints and the NFL on
Thursday.
“There were no complaints
or displeasure at all expressed
by the NFL or the Saints about
the level of security for last
week’s game,” Adams said. “No
one from the Saints requested
security for Mr. Benson himself from the local law enforcement agencies. We were

Time to
prepare
for deer
season
The small amount of
rain that we received this
week was a welcome sight
even though it wasn’t very
much. Maybe this will help
give our food plots a start.
The cool weather has
been nice and in what very
little time that I have been
able to be in the woods, I
have seen some nice bucks.
You should be making your
final plans for the upcoming first gun season with
dogs because it is only a
couple of weeks away.
There is still no word on
management areas being
closed.
Again, as you are in the
woods, hunt with caution
because of the amount of
damaged timber which has
still not fallen to the
ground.
If you
are
hunting
from a
tree
stand
you
should
exercise
extreme Jimmy
caution Davis
because
of all of the timber damage. Let’s not start off this
season with an accident.
On a different note, if
you have kept up with my
articles over the years, you
have read about two
friends of mine, BooBoo
and Sam Ba, who continuously try to outdo each other during turkey season.
Just like everyone our age
we are getting older and
slowing down, so BooBoo
decided since he couldn’t
beat Sam at turkey hunting, he decided to beat his
wife and cousin at fishing.
By the way, the waters
have been tested out front
and the way I understand
it fishing and shrimping
are OK now to catch, keep
and eat. Oyster reefs, however, are still closed.
Back to the fishing story, BooBoo took his wife
Georgia Ann and his
cousin Lavonda fishing
off of Graveline and
according to sources close
to the story BooBoo, who
was telling his normal
stories and not paying
attention, finally hooked
a fish but lost his new rod
and reel overboard. BooBoo, not as fleet of foot as
he used to be, had to rely
on the women to retrieve
his new rod and reel. Not
only did they get it back,
it had a nice keeper
speckled trout on it that
he could not even claim
for himself. The fishing
trip was a success for
Lavonda and Georgia
Ann, with Lavonda catching a 37-inch red fish and
both ladies filled the boat
with white trout.
Sad to say BooBoo was
beat again. That’s all
right.
Don’t forget to watch
Dynamic Outdoors on
WXXV-TV 25 at 9:30
Sunday morning, where
you can see hunting and
fishing at its best. I am

Bart Bryant grabs lead at
PGA Tour Championship
■ Career grinder
shoots record 62
at East Lake golf
course in Atlanta
ATLANTA — What was
shaping up as a record round
Thursday at East Lake suddenly was in peril as Bart
Bryant planted his feet on the
grassy mound of a bunker and
chipped awkwardly to the
hole.
He would have been happy
to get it within 10 feet. Imagine how he felt when his shot
hit the pin, rattled the cup and
settled a few feet away.
“My caddie and I looked at
each other and said, ’This is
your day,”’ Bryant said.
The career grinder and late
bloomer must be starting to
think this is his year.
Bryant was nearly flawless
Thursday in the Tour Championship, making an auspicious debut by setting the
course record with an 8-under
62 to take a two-shot lead over
defending champion Retief
Goosen.
He was the only player in
the 29-man field without a
bogey on his card. He missed
only two greens and two fairways. Caught between clubs
on the par-5 15th, he went
with a hybrid and knocked it
within 6 feet for an eagle.
Maybe now the 42-year-old
Bryant will start believing he
belongs with the best.
“I’m working on it,” said
Bryant, who didn’t win until
the Texas Open last year and
added a validation victory at
the Memorial in early June.
“People try to pound it in my
head, ’You belong, you belong.’
If I go out and shoot three
more 62s, maybe I’ll believe
it.”
Kenny Perry bogeyed the
last two holes for a 65, while
Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia
were at 66.
Woods was at 5 under
through eight holes and was
poised to shoot 29 on the front
until failing to convert an easy
up-and-down for birdie from
the bunker. He struggled the
rest of the way, but had few
complaints.
Bryant had nothing to complain about, either. He wound
up breaking by one shot the
East Lake record set by Vijay
Singh in the first round of the
1998 Tour Championship.
Goosen made eight birdies
in a round of 64, the same
score he shot on the last day a
year ago to win the Tour
Championship. This time, it
wasn’t even good enough for
the lead.
“I had a funny feeling somebody would shoot low around
here ... if the weather stayed
the way it was,” Goosen said.
Not many would have
guessed it would come from a
player who had never seen
East Lake until this week.
“What a round of golf that
is,” Charles Howell III said
after a 67. “I saw him at 8
under and thought he was
playing a scramble with Ted
Purdy.”
Twelve out of the 29 players
at East Lake broke par, a tribute to a gorgeous afternoon
with hardly any wind, and a
course that is playing firm and
fast.
Even so,
Bryant’s
score got
everyone’s
attention.
“I wasn’t
expecting 8
under,”
Davis Love
Bryant
III said after
a 68. “I wasn’t expecting 6 under.”
Bryant’s expectations keep
getting higher, although it
wasn’t always that way. There
were times he would lie awake
and wonder if his journey
through the smaller tours and
too many trips to Q-school
were a sign that maybe he
should find another job.
It started to turn around
when his swing coach, Brian
Mogg, showed him six years of
statistics and asked Bryant if
they belonged to a guy who
should be doing well on the
PGA Tour. Bryant agreed.
“It was me,” he said. “I think
I finally started buying into
the belief that maybe I
belonged out here, and I certainly wasn’t going to chicken out anymore. I was going to
put my neck on the line, and
try to get in the lead. And if I
failed, so what? I’m just too
old to care about it anymore.”
But he cares about being at
the Tour Championship, one of
the sweetest rewards for all
his travails. Bryant had never
finished higher than 80th on
the money list until this year.
He won the Texas Open last
year, although it was played
opposite the Ryder Cup. He
backed it up with a solid victory at Muirfield Village,
where he made par from a
hazard on the 18th hole for a
one-shot victory at the Memorial. Bryant arrived at East
Lake at No. 22 on the money
list with just over $2 million.
“From where we’ve been to
where we are now, maybe kind
of through the school of hard
knocks, maybe we appreciate
it a little bit more,” he said.
Woods, who needs a victory
this week to become the first
$11 million man in golf, was
all over the place. He started
out as if he would be the one to
break the East Lake record,
firing at flags from the fairway and hitting great shots
when he wound up in the
rough.
What hurt him was the
sand.
He missed the simple upand-down on the ninth, blasted out too far on the 10th and
made bogey, and lost another

Alexander also says he sees
the same thing happening
against George County.
“I think they’ve improved
since the first time I saw
them against Wayne County,” Alexander said. “We had a
chance to watch some film of
them from last week, and you
can really tell they have gotten much better.”
Moss Point got a huge
game from sophomore running back Meco Brown last
week and with the return of
Dontavious Morrissette from
injury, the Tigers look ready
for the challenge.
“I think George County is
playing with a lot of confidence and they are now the
team everyone is chasing,”
Alexander said. “There is still
a lot of work left to do for
teams fighting for the playoffs and we are one of those
teams.”

Harrison Central is winless in Region 4-5A

doing some damage.
“The have some very explosive players on

players. They have a lot of you talent on that

Tway ties SFB Classic’s
opening-round record with
64
MADISON — Bob Tway
shot a tournament recordtying 8-under 64 Thursday for
a one-stroke lead after the first
round of the Southern Farm
Bureau Classic.
Tway, an eight-time PGA
Tour winner whose last victory came at the 2003 Bell
Canadian Open, matched the
first-round scoring record
shared by four players in Mississippi’s only tour stop. Frank
Lickliter was the last to open
the event with a 64, in 2000.
The SFB Classic’s record for a
low round is 61, set by Keith
Clearwater in 1996.
Jonathan Byrd opened with
a 65. Kevin Na, Tom Pernice
Jr., Tom Byrum and Bo Van
Pelt were two shots back after
first-round 66s.
Tway, who started on the
back nine, had four straight
birdies, starting at No. 3, to
get to 9 under at Annandale
Golf Club. After a third
straight par, the 46-year-old
Tway had a chance to break
the opening-round record on
his last hole, but left a 13-foot
par putt 2 inches short.
“I don’t think I know the
golf course all that well,” Tway
said. “It’s the type of golf
course where if you hit it well,
the greens are going to stay
receptive. They’re going to stay
soft and each round you can
have a chance to make some
birdies.... If you can make a
few by getting close enough
and and birdie the par-5s,
you’ll be OK.”

While leaving Louisiana State University's Tiger Stadium after a press conference, New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, center, answers reporters' questions in
Baton Rouge, La., in this Sept. 12 photo. Benson has
not yet decided whether he will be at Sunday's game .

Adams has been involved in
security planning for LSU
football for 22 years. The stadium holds more than 90,000
for LSU football and thousands
more take part in tailgate parties outside the stadium spanning from Friday night to Sunday morning on football weekends.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello
said he is not aware of any
security concerns of the Saints
in Baton Rouge and said
league officials “are not going
e
Sinc 74

to discuss communication
between owners and our
office.”
Benson lunged at a WWLTV camera, knocking it down
and causing a microphone to
fall off, before engaging in a
verbal confrontation with a
nearby fan. The NFL has said
it plans no action against Benson.
WWL-TV said the cameraman was about seven to 10 feet
from Benson and was not in
the way of Benson and his party. The station said the Saints
did not respond to its request
for comment.

Alabama town mourns teacher; 15-year-old boy held
HATTON, Ala. — Hundreds of students, educators and parents gathered
in a rural, small-town gym Thursday
to honor a veteran teacher who was
fatally beaten at work in what police
say was a brutal robbery committed by
a 15-year-old boy.
Both before and after the tear-filled
memorial service for Judy Jester, one
question went unanswered: Why
Lott-sponsored
Amtrak overhaul
approved, 96-3
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Amtrak needs to improve the
way it monitors performance
and oversees its finances to
reach solid financial ground,
congressional investigators
said Thursday.
Meanwhile,
the Senate
voted 93-6
Thursday to
include an
Amtrak overhaul amendment to the
budget bill
being debated. The overLott
all budget
measure was passed 52-47
Thursday night.
The Amtrak provision,
sponsored by Sens. Trent
Lott, R-Miss., and Frank
Lautenberg, D-N.J., would
cut Amtrak’s operating subsidies by 40 percent, leaving
it with $3.3 billion in subsidies over six years. The railroad would receive $4.9 billion over six years for capital
grants and the measure
would create a grant program giving states $1.4 billion for intercity passenger
rail service.
“Because the administration has indicated it will not
support any funding for
Amtrak this fiscal year
unless Congress enacts
Amtrak reforms, it is imperative for the Congress to
make its voice heard on
Amtrak,” Lott said.
The Government Accountability Office, the auditing
arm of Congress, report outlined recommendations to
help the financially-troubled
rail service that has never
made money in its 34-year
history. An operating loss of
more than $550 million was
expected for the fiscal year
that ended Sept. 30. The railroad has a debt of more than
$3.5 billion.
“Amtrak’s management
may be able to correct a number of these issues on its own,
but the company is likely to
need outside help in developing a comprehensive
approach to address internal
control weaknesses and
improve the financial information for management and
external stakeholders,” the
report said.
“While Amtrak has recently reduced costs, revenues
are declining faster than
costs, leading to operating
losses exceeding $1 billion
annually,” the report said.
“These losses are projected
to grow by 40 percent within
four years.”
The GAO recommends that
the transportation secretary
direct the Federal Railroad
administrator to require
Amtrak to submit a plan laying out specifically how it
will improve its financial
operations; provide Amtrak
with direction on how to do
so, and; monitor the railr o a d ’s p e r f o r m a n c e a n d
report to Congress on
Amtrak’s progress.
Transportation Secretary
Norman Y. Mineta, called the
GAO report “unusual, if not
unprecedented, in the scope
of its review and the severity
of its indictment.”
“The Amtrak board must
stop and take a fresh look on
how to proceed in the face of
this non-partisan, objective
report of systemic failure,”
Mineta said.
The Bush administration
has called for no subsidies
for Amtrak, but the House
has approved an appropriation of nearly $1.2 billion for
this budget year.

Jester, who ran an after-school program for at-risk students, was found

Poll has Bush’s ratings at lowest in presidency
By TOM RAUM
WASHINGTON — President
Bush’s job approval has fallen to the
lowest level of his presidency amid
worries over the Iraq war, a fumbled
Supreme Court nomination, the
indictment of one White House aide
and uncertainty about another.
Concerned that the president has
lost his footing, some influential
Republicans are urging Bush to shake
up his staff and bring in new blood.
A new AP-Ipsos poll found Bush’s
approval rating was at 37 percent,
compared with 39 percent a month
ago. About 59 percent of those surveyed said they disapproved.
The intensity of disapproval is the
strongest to date, with 42 percent
now saying they “strongly disapprove”
of how Bush is handling his job —
twice as many as the 20 percent who
said they “strongly approve.”
A year after his re-election, Bush’s
second term has been marred by rising U.S. casualties in Iraq, a failed
attempt to restructure Social Security, Hurricane Katrina missteps, rising
fuel costs and his forced withdrawal of
the Supreme Court nomination of
Harriet Miers.
In a case involving the exposure of
a CIA agent married to an Iraq war
critic, Vice President Dick Cheney’s
former aide, I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby,
pleaded not guilty on Thursday in
federal court to charges of obstruction of justice, perjury and lying to
investigators. The case casts a continuing cloud over Cheney and keeps
Bush’s closest adviser, Karl Rove, in
legal jeopardy.
Republicans are worrying about losing their majorities in Congress in
the 2006 elections and hope Bush can
reverse his slide.
Several senior Republicans who are
close to the White House and Rove
say there has been a lot of talk inside
and outside the White House about
the need for him to leave, but they’re
picking up no indication from him or
his associates that it’s going to happen
— at least anytime soon.
Neither Bush nor Rove has seemed
to get the message, the Republicans
say.
Democrats have kept up the attack.
“The 2006 midterm elections will be
our next opportunity to change the
environment of corruption and incompetence in Washington,” Senate
Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.,
said Thursday in a fundraising letter to Democrats. Reid has called for
Rove’s resignation and a “thorough
house cleaning” at the White House.
In the AP-Ipsos poll, nearly one in
five Republicans disapproved of
Bush’s handling of his job, compared
with nearly nine in ten Democrats.
Nearly seven in ten independents disapproved.
The president has lost support from
some key groups of constituents over
the past year. He’s dropped 16 points
in his approval rating with men in
that time, 18 points with people who
have a high school education or less,
16 points among Southerners and 13
points among Republicans.
The poll was conducted by telephone Oct. 31-Nov. 2 among 1,006
adults nationwide. The margin on
sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.
Congress isn’t faring much better.
In early October, 35 percent of poll
respondents approved of the job being
done by Congress, down from 44 percent in February.
In December 2004, soon after
Bush’s re-election, 51 percent
approved of his handling of his job,
while 47 disapproved, and 28 disapproved strongly.
“I’m surprised it’s not even worse”
in terms of Bush’s latest poll numbers, said GOP consultant Rich Galen.
He cited three months of unrelenting bad news that have Republicans
“beginning to scratch their heads.”
Away from Washington, Republican leaders seemed concerned about
Bush’s drift downward in the polls
and about Iraq, where the 2,000th
U.S. military death was recently
recorded — and less troubled about
the CIA-leak case and the controversy surrounding Rove and Libby.
“I think the war in Iraq being on
the front page every day has taken its
toll,” said Van Poole, former Florida
GOP chairman and now a Tallahassee
lobbyist. “Americans are impatient.
Whatever our job is, Americans want

del Plata to attend the Summit of the Americas.
us to get it done. Bush will bounce
back.”
Poole shrugged off the CIA-leak
investigation. “Most people I’ve talked
to think it was a big waste of money,
taking as much time as it did.”
Republican pollster David Winston
said Presidents Reagan and Clinton
recovered from low poll figures in
their second terms and Bush should
as well. Bush has been battered by
many events over which he had no
or little control, but next month’s Iraqi
elections and signs of an improving
economy should help him bounce
back, Winston said.
As to Rove’s status, “People are
more interested in gas prices, how’s
the war on terror going, how’s my
child’s education,” Winston said.

O’Connor’s departure could shift high court

bring abrupt change

Plaintiff Frederick “Mike” Humeston and his wife react

City, N.J.
Jury absolves Merck
& Co. in Vioxx trial
By JOHN CURRAN
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. —
Merck & Co. won a major victory in the battle over its Vioxx
painkiller Thursday when a New
Jersey state jury found that the
drugmaker properly warned consumers about the risks of the
medication. The finding means
Merck will not be held liable for
the 2001 heart attack suffered by
a man taking Vioxx.
After deliberating for less than
eight hours over three days, the
jury cleared Merck of allegations
it failed to warn consumers
about the drug’s risks and
engaged in “unconscionable commercial practices” in marketing
it to doctors and their patients.
The verdict was Merck’s first
win out of two Vioxx-related trials. In August, a Texas jury
found the company liable in a
Vioxx user’s death. Damages
there will be cut to about onetenth of the jury’s $253 million
award due to that state’s caps
on punitive damages.
Much of the seven-week trial,
eagerly watched by lawyers and
plaintiffs from around the country, relied on the testimony of
medical experts. Witnesses for
Merck testified the company
believed Vioxx was safe for the
heart before the drug was pulled
from the market a year ago after
a study showed it doubled risk of
heart attacks and strokes when
taken for at least 18 months.
The company faces more than
6,500 similar lawsuits, which
Merck, based in Whitehouse Station, N.J., said it plans to fight
one by one. Thursday’s verdict
means it might take several
more cases before lawyers can
find any sort of precedent that
might determine Merck’s ultimate Vioxx liability. In the meantime, each case — including a
federal trial scheduled to begin
in Houston Nov. 28 — will continue to draw the attention of
pharmaceutical companies,
lawyers, consumers and stock
analysts
Merck shares were up $1.16,
or 4.1 percent, at $29.57 in afternoon trading — at four times
normal trading volume.
Stock analysts said the company clearly will face huge legal
costs given its plan to fight each
lawsuit individually. The company has set aside just $675 million for legal defense costs, but
nothing for jury awards or settlements.
“It’s still going to be a
marathon” in the courts, said
Barbara Ryan, pharmaceuticals
analyst at Deutsche Bank North
America.
Members of Merck’s legal
team, some with tears in their
eyes, hugged each other after
the New Jersey verdict.
“I feel pretty good,” said lead
counsel Diane Sullivan. “I’m
proud of the folks at Merck.”
Kenneth C. Frazier, senior vice
president and general counsel
of Merck, said in a statement,
“there will be other Vioxx trials
and we will vigorously defend
them one by one over the coming
years. Merck acted responsibly,
from performing extensive clinical trials comparing Vioxx to
NSAIDs (nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs) or placebo
in almost 10,000 patients prior
to approval, to monitoring the
medicine while it was on the
market to voluntarily withdrawing the medicine when we
did.”
WA SHI NGTON — The
Sup rem e C ourt ’s m id d le
ground is disappearing. If
Samuel Alito is confirmed, he
could almost immediately
begin shifting the court onto
more conservative footing as
it considers contentious social
issues like abortion, religion
and capital punishment.
With pragmatic Justice
Sandra Day O’Connor as its
pendulum, the court has
staked out moderate positions, often in line with public
opinion but not necessarily
clear-cut.
“We’ve been idling many
years with the court being
noncommittal,” said Ann Althouse, a law professor at the
University of Wisconsin.
That is likely to end with
Alito, who is expected to bring
a more reliably conservative
approach to areas that O’Connor has influenced: abortion
restrictions, the death penalty, campaign finance, affirmative action and states’
rights.
The shift could be abrupt.
O’Connor has been a tiebreaking vote in capital punishment cases, including a
decision earlier this year that
overturned Alito’s ruling as a
federal appeals court judge
a ga inst a Pennsylva nia
inmate. The justices will take
up a Tennessee death row
inmate’s appeal in January
that will decide when people
should get a chance to prove
their innocence with DNA or
other new evidence. Alito has
been less sympathetic to
inmate appeals than O’Connor.
Another case being argued
in January brings up election
law — a subject that O’Connor has commanded.
“Justice O’Connor has been
the key vote in everything
from campaign finance to the
meaning of the Voting Rights
Act to racial gerrymandering
to Bush v. Gore,” said Richard
Hasen, a Loyola Law School
professor specializing in elections.
O’Connor was an author of
the Supreme Court’s most
recent decision on campaign
finance, a 54 ruling two
y e ar s
ag o
that upheld
restrictions
on donations.
T h at same
f e d e r al l aw
Alito
will
be
reviewed by the court on Jan.
17. Justice Antonin Scalia
opposes the law on grounds
that it violates free speech,
and in Alito he could find a
fifth vote to strike down part
of it.
Alito, like Scalia, has a
record of friendliness to free
speech claims. For example,
he opposed a law that barred
companies from buying alcohol ads in college newspapers.
O’Connor sometimes votes
with Scalia and other court
conserva t i v e s, an d o th e r
times provides the fifth vote
to the court’s more liberal
wing.
“We may not have any more
swing votes on the court,”
said Suzanne Goldberg, a professor at Rutgers School of
Law.
She said the court may still
frequently split 5-4, but with
conservatives on the winning
side each time. It is not clear
how O’Connor ’s departure
will affect Justice Anthony
Kennedy, another Reagan
administration appointee who
usually, but not always, votes
with conservatives.
Kermit Hall, president of
the State University of New
York at Albany, said Alito
probably will be a traditionalist judge with an emphasis
on family values, more willing
to back government than
O’Connor, and more willing
to vote on the side of employers in worker disputes.
In a 1991 appeals court ruling, he voted to uphold a state
requirement that women notify their husbands before getting abortions, relying on
arguments that a family discussion in advance could clear
up
mi sc o mmu n i c ati o n .
O’Connor was an author of
the Supreme Court ruling
that found the notification
unconstitutional.
O’Connor supports Roe v.
Wade. Alito has not said how
he would vote if asked to
overturn the 1973 decision
that established a woman’s
right to have an abortion. A
major abortion case is on the
calendar for November.
Alito is expected to go further than O’Connor in allowing religion in public life.
O’Connor voted with liberal
members this summer in a 54 decision that limited government Ten Commandments
displays. Alito has given his
support to a government holiday display containing a
creche and menorah.
Another room for change is
the area of states’ rights. Alito, like Scalia, is expected to
side with states more often
in power struggles with Congress.
While O’Connor has generally been a strong states’
rights advocate, her vote is
not guaranteed. Last year she
was the swing vote in a 5-4
ruling that said disabled people can sue if states ignore a
civil rights law on access to
courthouses.
Two states’ rights showdowns are at the court now
— a case that asks if federal
law can trump a state physician-assisted suicide law, and
a case that asks if states can
be sued for not accommodating disabled prisoners.
O’Connor is participating
in both cases, and others that
are on the schedule this fall,
but her vote will not count if
her successor is confirmed
be f o r e th e r u l i n g s ar e
announced. It is likely that
some appeals will have to be
reargued after O’Connor ’s
departure because of 4-4
deadlocks.
In her 24 years on the
bench, O’Connor has been
known for pragmatic votes,
like her tie-breaking 2003
vote to allow limited affirmative action in college admissions.
“Because of her style of
interpretation, you could never tell whether she was gauging the political preferences
of society ... reaching outcomes that were good in a policy or political way,” said Althouse, at the University of
Wisconsin. “People would criticize her as being mushy.”
With Alito, there will be less
flexibility, which would please
lawyers but may disturb some
people, said Althouse.

Paris-area riots spread to 20 towns, eighth night
By JAMEY KEATEN
AULNAY-SOUS-BOIS, France — A week of
riots in poor neighborhoods outside Paris
gained dangerous new momentum Thursday,
with youths shooting at police and firefighters and attacking trains and symbols of the
French state.
Facing mounting criticism, Prime Minister
Dominique de Villepin vowed to restore order as
the violence that erupted Oct. 27 spread to at
least 20 towns, highlighting the frustration
simmering in housing projects that are home to
many North African immigrants.
Police deployed for a feared eighth night of
clashes, after bands of youths lobbing stones
and petrol bombs ignored President Jacques
Chirac’s appeal for calm a day earlier.
“I will not accept organized gangs making the
law in some neighborhoods. I will not accept
having crime networks and drug trafficking
profiting from disorder,” Villepin said at the
Senate in between emergency meetings called
over the riots.
The unrest cast a cloud over the end of
Ramadan, the Muslim holy month. In Clichysous-Bois — heart of the rioting — men filled
the Bilal mosque for evening prayers, but
streets were subdued with shops shutting early.
“Look around you. How do you think we can
celebrate?” said Abdallah Hammo as he closed
the tea house where he works.
Riots erupted in an outburst of anger in
Clichy-sous-Bois over the accidental electrocution Oct. 27 of two teenagers who fled a soccer game and hid in a power substation when
they saw police enter the area. Youths in the
neighborhood suspect that police chased Traore
Bouna, 15, and Zyed Benna, 17, to their deaths.
Since then riots have swelled into a broader
challenge against the French state and its
security forces. The violence has exposed deep
discontent in neighborhoods where African and
AP
French riot police officers, left, protect firefighters working in the Paris suburb, Le
Blanc-Mesnil. Youths battled with police in Paris’ troubled suburbs for a eighth
straight night, setting fire to a car dealership and hurling stones at police in at least
10 towns, officials said.
Muslim immigrants and their French-born
children are trapped by poverty, unemployment, racial discrimination, crime, poor education and housing.
The Interior Ministry released a preliminary
report Thursday exonerating officers of any
direct role in the teenagers’ deaths. Some 1,300
officers were being deployed in Seine-Saint-
Denis, a tough northeastern area that includes
the town of Clichy-sous-Bois and has seen the
worst violence.
The report said police went to Clichy-sousBois to investigate a suspected intrusion on a
building site but did not chase the teenagers
who were killed. A third teenager who was
seriously injured also told investigators he
and the other boys were aware of the dangers
when they hid in the substation, which was
fenced off, the report said.
The report did not address why the youths
ran when officers came to the neighborhood,
but it said Benna was known to police for having committed robbery with violence and
Bouna was among those who had intruded
onto the building site.
Such official assurances that police were not
directly responsible for the deaths have not
stemmed the unrest, which authorities said
spread Wednesday night to at least 20 Parisregion towns. Government offices, a police station, a primary school and a college, a Clichysous-Bois fire station and a train station were
among the buildings targeted.
Rioters also set fire to a gym near the Les
Tilleuls housing complex in the Seine-SaintDenis region. It burned and smoldered
Wednesday night as residents looked on in
despair.
“Where is she going to practice now?” asked
Mohammed Fawzi Kaci, an Algerian immigrant whose 8-year-old daughter took gymnastics classes at the facility.
The violence also has cast doubt on the success of France’s model of seeking to integrate
its immigrant community — its Muslim population, at an estimated 5 million, is Western
Europe’s largest — by playing down differences between ethnic groups. Rather than feeling embraced as full and equal citizens, immigrants and their French-born children often
complain of police harassment and of being
refused jobs, housing and opportunities.
“It is very tough when you are stuck midway
between France and Algeria or Morocco,” said
Sonia Imloul, who works with troubled teens in
Seine-Saint-Denis and was born in France of
Algerian parents. She added: “Perhaps we
should be told clearly to stop having children,
because they have an 80 percent chance of
not succeeding.”
Europe Union to investigate
reports of secret CIA prisons
■ Group claims evidence of
facilities in Poland, Romania

Chinese health workers tend an animal disinfection and inspection check point in
one of the entrances to the farm that suffered the first of four outbreaks of bird flu
reported over the past month in China.
China updates bird flu policies
By AUDRA ANG
the Associated Press
TENGJIAYING, China —
Chickens were dropping dead
by the dozens at Qin Zhijun’s
farm one morning, most while
feeding in their squat, brick
coops.
“They died instantly,” said
Qin, a breeder in China’s
northern Inner Mongolia
region, which reported the
first of the country’s three bird
flu epidemics in poultry last
month. “I’ve never seen a disease like this.”
Within 15 hours of the Oct.
14 outbreak, he says, up to
2,000 of his birds had died of
the H5N1 virus and 7,000 others were destroyed by health
officials.
The prevention measures
extended for a two-mile radius
from Qin’s farm, with more
than 93,000 birds slaughtered
and tens of thousands more
vaccinated.
Now authorities are eager
to assure the public and the
world that the government is
taking its anti-bird flu work
very seriously — and to show
it can be open following sharp
criticism that it was unwilling to share information during an outbreak of severe
acute respiratory syndrome in
China in late 2002.
No human cases of bird flu
have been reported in China,
but two recent outbreaks in
poultry — one in Anhui
province in the east, the other
in central Hunan province —
have sparked fears that
human infections may be on
the horizon.
Reporters dressed in protective suits and masks were taken on a whirlwind tour Thurs-
day of Tengjiaying, a village
of about 1,000 people just outside Hohhot, the regional capital. Cows and sheep roamed
the dusty streets.
Buses carrying the group
were stopped at a checkpoint,
where the wheels of the vehicles were sprayed with disinfectant by workers wearing
white and blue protective
suits. A thick registration book
sat on a table filled with information on drivers and their
cargo.
“From the officials at the top
to ordinary citizens, everyone
understands this is a problem
and everyone is paying great
attention to it,” said Xu Yanhui, the official in charge of
anti-bird flu measures in
Inner Mongolia. “Everyone is
filled with confidence that we
will be able to overcome this.”
Qin, 44, said that on the day
of the outbreak, he awoke at 6
a.m. to find a few dead birds.
He said many more dropped
dead while eating an hour later.
Qin said authorities, who
arrived 30 minutes after he
reported the deaths, detained
him and his wife at the farm
while they tested the chickens. He said that when the
results came back positive for
bird flu, they began destroying
other chickens.
On Thursday, Qin’s coops
stood empty, their windows
sea led wit h p la st ic. The
ground is covered in chalky
white powdered disinfectant;
empty bottles for liquid disinfectant were piled up nearby.
“At the time, it was hard to
bear,” said Qin, whose face
was browned by the sun and
deeply lined. “I did not feel
like eating, I did not feel like
sleeping.”
He said authorities filled a
p ond where t hey susp ect
migrating birds might have
passed the virus to his flock.
BRUSSELS, Belgium — The European
Union and the continent’s top human rights
group said Thursday they will investigate allegations the CIA set up secret jails in eastern
Europe and elsewhere to interrogate terror
suspects, and the Red Cross demanded access
to any prisoners.
Human Rights Watch said it has evidence,
based on flight logs, that indicate the CIA
transported suspects captured in Afghanistan
to Poland and Romania. But the two countries
— and others in the former Soviet bloc —
denied the allegations. U.S. officials have
refused to confirm or deny the claims.
Such prisons, European officials say, would
violate the continent’s human rights principles. At work may be a complex web of global
politics, in which eastern European countries
face choices between the views of the European Union and their interest in close ties
with the United States.
The International Committee of the Red
Cross expressed strong interest in the claims,
first reported Wednesday in the Washington
Post, that the CIA has been hiding and interrogating some of its most important al-Qaida
captives at Soviet-era compounds.
Red Cross chief spokeswoman Antonella
Notari said the agency asked Washington about
the allegations and requested access to the
prisons if they exist. The Red Cross, which
has exclusive rights to visit terror suspects
detained at a U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, long has been concerned
about reports U.S. officials were hiding
detainees from ICRC delegates.
Europe’s top human rights organization, the
Council of Europe, said it, too, would investi-
gate.
Notari said the Red Cross, which also monitors conditions at U.S. detention centers in
Afghanistan and Iraq, has been unable to find
some people who reportedly were detained.
She said the Red Cross was “concerned about
the fate of an unknown number of persons
detained as part of what is called the ’global
war on terror’ and held in undisclosed places of
detention.”
In implicating Poland and Romania, Human
Rights Watch examined flight logs of CIA aircraft from 2001 to 2004, said Mark Garlasco, a
senior military analyst with the New Yorkbased organization. He said the group matched
the flight patterns with testimony from some of
the hundreds of detainees in the war on terrorism who have been released by the United
States.
“The indications are that prisoners in
Afghanistan are being (taken) to facilities in
Europe and other countries in the world,” Garlasco, a former civilian intelligence officer with
the Defense Intelligence Agency, told The Associated Press.
He would not say how the organization
obtained the flight logs, but said two destinations of the flights stood out as likely sites of
any secret CIA detention centers: Szymany
Airport in Poland, which is near the headquarters of Poland’s intelligence service; and
Mihail Kogalniceanu military airfield in Romania.
Human Rights Watch also obtained the tail
numbers of dozens of CIA aircraft to match
them with the flight logs, Garlasco said.
He said that in September 2003, a Boeing
737 flew from Washington to Kabul,
Afghanistan, making stops along the way in the
Czech Republic and Uzbekistan. On Sept. 22,
the plane flew on to Szymany Airport, then to
Mihail Kogalniceanu, proceeded to Sale, Morocco, and finally landed at Guantanamo, Garlasco said.

Prince Charles receives warm reception from students
WASHINGTON (AP) — Prince
Charles received the warmest public
welcome so far of his U.S. tour Thursday,
mingling with more than 1,000 cheering
students at Georgetown University —
and even signing a softball.
Arriving for a seminar on faith and
social responsibility, Charles spent 15
minutes talking to students and staff
who craned over barricades to catch a
glimpse of him — offering handshakes to
many and a rare autograph on a proffered softball to one young man.
Many in the crowd yelled “Prince
Charles!” as he approached — one
woman adding, “Where’s William?”
The 56-year-old heir to the throne
may lack the college appeal of his 23year-old son William, but the enthusiastic reception was a welcome boost for
a royal tour that has met a muted
response in a Washington preoccupied
with legal fights involving top White
House and congressional figures, battles
over a Supreme Court
vacancy and the rising death toll in Iraq.
After the pomp and
ceremony of Wednesday’s black-tie dinner
hosted by President
Bush at the White
House, Charles and Prince Charles
his wife Camilla,
Duchess of Cornwall were on comfortable ground Thursday — visiting worthy
projects in which they have a personal
interest.
Charles, who has called in the past for
a greater understanding of Islam from
the West, met representatives of Christian, Muslim and Jewish groups at
Georgetown’s Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding.
Earlier, the prince accepted an award
for his contribution to architecture at
the National Building Museum, donating the $30,000 prize money to hurricane
recovery in Mississippi.
Charles and Camilla were due to see
hurricane damage firsthand on Friday,
flying to New Orleans to meet residents
and recovery workers.
Later, Camilla wore a gold lace cocktail dress and a diamond necklace as
she and Charles mingled with 140
guests at a reception hosted by the
British ambassador, Sir David Manning,
and his wife, Lady Catherine.
The weeklong tour, designed to bolster
trans-Atlantic ties and promote Charles’
environmentalist causes, also represents
a coming-out for Camilla. The 58-yearold married the prince in April after a
relationship that stretched back three
decades — and was interrupted by their
marriages to others. For many fans of
the late Princess Diana, she remains
the woman who broke up the fairy-tale
royal romance, although both Charles
and Diana acknowledged having affairs
during a marriage that ended in divorce
in 1996. Diana died in a car crash in
Paris the following year.
The spotlight-shy Camilla broke her
customary public silence Thursday during a visit to the National Institutes of
Health. Wearing a navy blue suit and
pearls, the duchess made a rare public
speech after meeting doctors working
to treat osteoporosis and patients of the
bone disease.
It is an issue close to her heart. “I
first became involved with osteoporosis
after both my mother and my grandmother died as a result of this devastating disease,” said the duchess, who is
patron of Britain’s National Osteoporosis Society.
Addressing about 40 researchers with
her husband by her side, Camilla point-
ed out the “horrifying” statistics about
the disease, which affects half of all
women over 50 in Britain.
She called for greater efforts to “prevent future generations worldwide from
suffering the pain and ignominy of osteoporosis.”
The duchess looked nervous before
the speech, tapping her notes on a table
and sipping from a glass of water. Afterwards, Charles gave her a reassuring
look.
The royal couple was greeted at the
institute by U.S. Surgeon General
Richard Carmona — who almost succeeded in leading the duchess into a
full-length glass window. A startled
Camilla touched her nose after narrowly avoiding a collision, prompting a laugh
from her husband.
The U.S. tour, which began Tuesday in
New York, also includes a visit to San
Francisco.

Tilly Smith, 11, from Oxshott, England, right, talks with Former President Bill Clinton on Thursday in New York. Clinton

death at a Thai resort.

10-year-old is credited
with saving 100 tourists
visits U.N., meets Clinton
UNITED NATIONS (AP) —
Tilly Smith, just 10 years old,
put her geography lessons to
good use: By quickly recognizing
the warning signs of a tsunami,
the English schoolgirl saved
about 100 people from near-certain death at a Thai resort.
On Thursday, Tilly visited the
United Nations and met former
president Bill Clinton, the U.N.
envoy for the tsunami recovery.
“My mum didn’t realize what
was happening on the beach
because she wasn’t taught about
tsunamis when she was
younger,” said Tilly, who was in
New York with her mother,
father and sister. The Smith
family all escaped the lethal
waves after Tilly’s early warning
during their vacation on the
island of Phuket.
Two weeks before the Dec. 26,
2004, disaster that took at least
178,000 lives, Tilly had studied
tsunamis in her geography class
in Oxshott, a community of
about 5,000 just south of London. The children were shown a
video from an earlier tsunami.
Tilly was armed with that
knowledge when the Smith family decided to go for a morning
walk on the idyllic beach near
the JW Marriott Phuket Resort
and Spa.
Suddenly, “I saw this bubbling
on the water, right on the edge,
and foam sizzling just like in a
frying pan,” she remembered.
“The water was coming in, but it
wasn’t going out again. It was
coming in, and then in, and then
in, towards the hotel.”
She recognized it as an indication that earthquake-driven
waves were only minutes away.
Tilly turned to her mother,
Penny, “and I said, ’Mum, I
know there’s something wrong,
I know it’s going to happen —
the tsunami.”’
When her mother replied that
it was just a day at the beach,
“Tilly went hysterical,” recalls
her father, Colin, who decided
to return to the hotel with her 8year-old sister, Holly.
While Colin Smith relayed
Tilly’s warning to the hotel staff,
the girl dashed back toward the
beach filled with about 100 people. She told the Japanese-born
hotel chef of the danger, “and
he knew the word tsunami
because it’s Japanese. But he
never saw one.”
The chef and a nearby hotel
security agent both spread the
warning and the beach was
swiftly evacuated — minutes
before the devastating waves
struck.
Family says Aruban officials
ignored leads, botched case
ORANJESTAD, Aruba (AP) —
The family of a U.S. teenager
who vanished on a school trip to
Aruba urged Thursday that three
law enforcement officials be
removed from the case, saying
they ignored promising leads and
did not take the investigation
seriously in the crucial early
stages.
Natalee Holloway’s family
made the charges in a letter
released as the missing teen’s
mother, Beth Holloway Twitty,
left the Dutch Caribbean island
after she said prosecutors and
the police chief refused to meet
with her.
The honors student was last
seen early on May 30 leaving a
bar with Dutch national Joran
van der Sloot and Surinamese
brothers Deepak and Satish
Kalpoe.
They were arrested on June 9
but released after a court ruled
there was not enough evidence
to hold them.
Twitty, who arrived Tuesday,
told reporters she wanted to meet
with prosecutors and police to
discuss a taped interview in
which Deepak Kalpoe allegedly
says all three had sex with Holloway, who would have turned
19 last month.
Twitty said she was “disheartened” with the response of Police
Chief Gerald Dompig, Chief Prosecutor Karin Jansen and Detective Dennis Jacobs to the disappearance of her daughter.
“They have placed barriers to
the advancement of the investigation,” Twitty said. “They should
be replaced.”
The police chief said he and
the chief prosecutor were willing
to meet with Twitty but first
wanted her to clarify statements
she made about an investigator
whose name he did not disclose.
Dompig declined to discuss her
criticisms.

Dear Dr. Gott: I am an occasional reader of
your column in my local paper and I noticed with
interest the article wherein you responded to a
“great-grandmother” age 86 (!), who stated that,
although she was in good health, she did have
hypertension (treated). She also had a cholesterol level of 223, and her doctor wanted her to
take Lipitor, which for several valid reasons you didn’t
recommend.
I’ll be 80 (!) by the end of
this month, am likewise in
good health and take no
drugs of any kind, but did
have high cholesterol (over
240, not that many years
ago!).
So I chose to follow my
usual herbal regimen, which Peter
Gott, M.D.
has served me well up to
now, by taking an over-thecounter product called Cholest-Off manufactured
under the brand name of Nature Made.
With the help of the Senior Circle Association
(of which I’ve been a member for over a year
now), which sponsors monthly health-fair exams
in the local hospital, I’ve been able to keep track
of my reading for nearly eight months, and by
adjusting my diet accordingly have been able to
keep my readings between 180 and 220! (Incidentally, my blood pressure is also normal.) Your
opinion, please!
Dear Reader: Hey, look, if the treatment is
safe and effective, go for it! I have no comments
about your herbal remedy except to say that
medical studies have failed to show any positive
effects from several herbal preparations, except
for omega-3 fish oil capsules. Keep up the good
work.
Dear Dr. Gott: I read your column every day
and find it to be very informative and helpful.
I am 74 years old. About two years ago, I suffered from chronic diarrhea. I could not go away
from home until after lunch. I also had a combined cholesterol reading of over 200.
I began taking a four-fiber tablet every day
and the diarrhea is under control. I also began
eating oatmeal every day for breakfast. My cholesterol is now 160.
To save money, I buy quick oatmeal and the
fiber laxative in a store brand. I prepare the oatmeal using a sugar-free sweetener and flavor it
with ground cinnamon and dried apples.
Dear Reader: Excellent choice. I’d be surprised if your dietary changes had failed to lower
your cholesterol as well as improve your diarrhea.
If your diarrhea persists, check with your doctor.
Dear Dr. Gott: Is it possible that the use of
bug repellent and topical sunscreen is dangerous? My doctor mentioned this in passing, but
didn’t give details.
Dear Reader: Your doctor gets five gold stars
for this one. He is absolutely correct. As reported
in the journal The Physician and Sportsmedicine
(September 2003), the combination may be disastrous.
Scientists in Canada have discovered that
when applied simultaneously, insect repellents
and sunscreen can increase the inappropriate
absorption of each other, resulting in toxicity.
The active ingredient in most repellents (DEET)
is designed and marketed to remain on the skin
after application. But the simultaneous presence
of sunscreen protection can lead to toxicity: rash,
low blood pressure, dizziness, headaches, disorientation and brain damage (especially in children).
Scientists urge people to avoid the “double
whammy” of both chemicals until the products’
ingredients can be modified. For now, consider
applying sunscreen during the day and insect
repellents (if necessary) in the late afternoon or
evening. (The bad effects are a problem only
when the two products are used simultaneously.)
Teacher
fills parents’
shoes for
needy
student
Dear Abby: I am 18, and
graduated from high school
last spring. From the time I
was 14, my parents and I did
not get along. But I did
become close with one of my
teachers. “Mr. Carson” was
always there for me when I
needed an adult perspective
about a
problem.
Sometimes he
was the
only person I could
talk to.
(He talked
me out of
suicide a
couple of
Dear
times.)
Abby
Don’t
get me
wrong; Mr. Carson was
always professional. He never
tried to take the place of my
parents. But because I turned
to him first, my parents
called me a worthless daughter. They even went so far as
to inform me I was no longer
welcome in their home.
After that, I became
depressed and made some
bad choices. When I became
pregnant at 17, my parents
refused to let me back in
their home. Mr. Carson and
his wife helped me to pay for
my pregnancy and get
through it emotionally. When
I needed advice, Mrs. Carson
was always there for me.
I am now raising my baby.
My son is the best thing in
my life. I’d like him to meet
his grandparents, but my
parents refuse. I have tried
everything, but now I have
given up. I want my son to
have a grandma and grandpa
in his life.
Would it be OK for me to
teach my son to call the Carsons “Grandma” and “Grandpa”? They are the closest
thing I have had to parents
for more than a year. Or
should I continue trying to
get my parents to change
their minds? — Parentless
in Richmond, N.Y.
Dear Parentless: Give
your mother and father until
the end of the year to change
their perspective.
If their attitude hasn’t mellowed by then, by all means
ask the Carsons if they would
like to be your son’s honorary
grandparents. Children need
love, and unlike your parents,
your teacher and his wife
seem to have it in abundance
to give.

Abigail Van Buren, also

mother, Pauline Phillips.
