    WASHINGTON Congressplunged the nation into a partialgovernment shutdown today as along-running dispute over Presi-dent Barack Obamas health carelaw stalled a temporary undingbill, orcing about 800,000 ed-

    eral workers o the job and sus-

    pending most non-essential ed-eral programs and services.

    With the Republican -con-trolled House and Democrat-ic-controlled Senate at a stale-mate, it was unclear how longthe government would remainshuttered. The No. 2 Democratin the Senate, Dick Durbin o Il-linois, called the ailure to pass abudget conduct unbeftting a re-sponsible Congress and said hehoped it could be resolved by theend o the day today.

    Most people in the body pol-

    itic are taking a look at this andsaying, A pox on both o yourhouses. It should never havereached this point, Durbinsaid this morning on CNN. Andtheres wisdom to that.

    CHICAGO Millions oAmericans will be able to shopor the frst time today on theinsurance marketplaces that are

    at the heart o President BarackObamas health care reorms,

    entering a world that is sup-posed to simpliy the mysterieso health coverage but could endup making it even more conus-ing, at least initially.

    Whether consumers will bepleased with the experience, the

    premiums and the out-o-pock-et costs o the plans oered to

    them will fnally start to becomeclear. Todays rollout comes a-

    ter months o buildup in whichthe marketplaces, also known

    as exchanges, have been bothpraised and vilifed.

    Illustrating the heated po-litical disagreements over thelaw, the opening o the exchang-es comes the same day as theshutdown o the ederal govern-ment, led by congressional Re-publicans who want to block thehealth insurance reorms romtaking eect.

    The shutdown will have noimmediate eect on the insur-

    ance marketplaces that are thebackbone o the law, becausethey operate with money thatisnt subject to the annual bud-get wrangling in Washington.

    The marketplaces opening inall 50 states represent a turningpoint in the nations approach tohealth care, the biggest expan-sion in coverage in nearly 50years.

    NEW YORK Be-loved authors Judy Blumeand Eric Carle helped theNew York Public Librarycelebrate childrens litera-ture Monday as the library

    released a list o 100 greatbooks rom the last 100years.

    The list includes picturebooks or preschoolersas well as books or olderreaders like The Hobbitand Harry Potter and theSorcerers Stone.

    The Cat in the Hat,Pippi Longstocking and

    Where the Wild ThingsAre all made the list, whichaccompanies an exhibit onchildrens literature at thelibrarys main building inmidtown Manhattan.

    Blume and Carle joinedlibrarians or a reading andpanel discussion.

    Viewed over time,

    childrens books are thecollected memory o our

    hopes and dreams, saidmoderator Leonard Mar-cus, a book critic and thecurator o the exhibit.They are the message ina bottle that each genera-tion tosses out to the nextgeneration in the hope thatit may wash ashore and beread and be taken to heart.

    Blume, whose Tales oa Fourth Grade Nothing ison the list, said that whenshe was in the ourth gradehersel she always had sto-ries in her head.

    But I never told any-body about them because Ithought i I did they wouldthink I was weird, she said.

    Since Blume beganpublishing in the 1970s,many o her books dealingwith subjects like racism,divorce and sexuality havebeen banned by authoritieswho considered the topicsinappropriate or children.

    Books that are lovedby children are oten thebooks that scare adults,Blume said.

    Carle made the libraryslist with The Very HungryCaterpillar, his 1969 pic-ture book about a voraciousbug that becomes a butter-fy. He said he created thecaterpillar by olding andmanipulating paper; he rstthought o the characteras a bookworm, Willie theWorm.

    ALBUQUERQUE,N.M. Insultsdished out by oodcritic Anthony Bour-dain on an episodeo CNNs Parts Un-known have stirredup outrage in NewMexico and nowhe acknowledgesthat he was wrong.

    The sharp-tongued che andwriter lashed into the World Fa-mous Frito pies sold at Santa FesFive & Dime General Stores snack

    bar. The store is a tourist attractionand a mainstay in the citys historicplaza.

    The dish, according to Bour-dain, was made with canned Hor-mel Chili and a day-glow orangecheese-like substance.

    But Bourdain spokeswomanKaren Reynolds told The Associat-ed Press on Monday that the writerwas incorrect in his description othe chile used by Santa Fes Five &Dime General Stores snack bar tomake the Frito pies.

    He admits that we got it wrongabout the chile, Reynolds said in

    an email. And well try to correct itor uture airings.

    In his critique, Bourdain alsosaid that the local avorite isnt evena New Mexico meal, but rather aTexas creation. He said New Mexi-cans should leave the recipe to theTexans.

    New Mexico, you have many

    wonderul things, Bourdain said.I think, let Texas have this one.

    Mike Collins, store managero the Five & Dime, says Bour-dain was completely wrong onthe stores Frito pie. He said theirversion is homemade rom chiliesgrown in New Mexico and remainspopular.

    I dont have any idea where hegot that rom, Collins said. I mean,

    i were using canned Hormel Chilithen Id like to buy stock in that be-cause what we have is good.

    Still, Collins said he and the stadont have any ill eelings towardBourdain. He said during the tap-ing o the visit, Bourdain was niceand a pleasure to be around.

    Reynolds also said Bourdain

    enjoyed the pie, something thatwasnt clear rom the show.

    Contrary to the impression letby some reports o the show, I, inact, very much enjoyed my Fritopie in spite o its disturbing weightin the hand. It may have elt like(expletive) but was shockinglytasty, Bourdain said in a statement.

    The ood critic wasnt all nega-

    tive toward New Mexico on the ep-isode. Bourdain is seen driving onRoute 66 through New Mexico andspeaks o the amous highwaysdierent cultures and cornucopiao ood. He also is shown enjoyingsome level 3 green chile and hav-ing to wait it out while the spicyeects wear o.

    JACKSON I MississippiPower Co. misses a May dead-line to complete construction oa $4.3 billion power plant in Kem-per County, it will be orced torepay $133 million in ederal taxcredits.

    However, the company saysthat because o accounting rules,it wouldnt write the amount o

    rom proft and wouldnt add it tothe $990 million in overruns itsalready written o.

    Company spokeswomanAmoi Geter said that decisioncould come this week.

    Mississippi Power President

    Ed Holland told The Associat-ed Press recently that ofcialswere reviewing the schedule andcould push it back.

    We still think that May dateis achievable, Holland said. Itsa challenge, and were in the pro-cess o evaluating how achiev-able it is.

    Geter says Mississippi Powerreceived tax credits in 2009 to en-courage it to build a coal-ueledpower plant emitting less carbondioxide, with a fve-year deadlineto complete construction.

    Rainy weather and addition-al work have pushed back theschedule, Holland said. Morethan 6,000 workers are on the

    site, a work-

    orce thats beenramped up as Mis-sissippi Power hastried to stay onschedule. But Hol-land says thereare now so manyworkers on sitethat it can be hardto squeeze them into the samespaces, creating congestion thatlimits productivity.

    Monitors employed by thePublic Service Commission havewarned that some work remainssignifcantly behind, particular-

    ly certain kinds o cabling. URSCorp., one o the two monitors,wrote in its August report thatinternal worst-case scenarioscould call or months o delays incompleting the plant and startingit up. The company hopes to start

    the gasifer, a key part o starting

    the whole plant, by December.The startup schedule is com-pressed, theres no doubt aboutthat, Holland said. But we thinkits doable.

    Lower labor productivity isone o the actors that could driveup costs even more. SouthernCo. shareholders are already ab-sorbing $990 million in overruns,and the company has warnedcosts could go up again. ButChie Financial Ofcer MosesFeagin said the $133 million intax credits, which would be re-paid rom cash or by reducing u-

    ture tax credits, would be only anindirect drag on uture proft. Healso said adding the $133 millionto the $990 million in overrunswould be adding apples and or-anges.

    Under a settlement approved

    in January, Mississippi rate-

    payers will have to pay or $2.4billion o the plants price, pluspay or up to another $1 billionin bonds that Mississippi Powerwont make a proft on. Thatsnot counting the additional hun-dreds o millions or costs o themine and pipeline.

    The PSC voted 2-1 to approvea 15 percent rate increase to startpaying o the plants debt evenbeore it begins operations, ol-lowed by an additional 3 percentincrease in 2014. MississippiPower has said its likely in 2014to seek an additional increase o

    at least 4 percent over 20 years topay o the bonds.The ederal government o-

    ered the tax credits to Kemperbecause the new plant is de-signed to limit carbon dioxideemissions.

    Kemper delay could orce repayment o $133 million

    Our View

    Some numbers commandyour attention, even i yourenot certain what they mean.

    Take $1 billion, or exam-ple.

    On Monday, during themonthly meeting o the Lown-des County Board o Super-visors, it was revealed thatthe countys total assessedvalue has eclipsed the $1

    billion mark or the frst time.Lowndes County is one o sixMississippi counties to havesurpassed that mark, joiningDeSoto, Harrison, Hinds,ackson, Madison and Rankin

    in that rare company.How much is $1 billion?

    There are some un ways tothink about it. One billion

    one-dollar bills would carpetan area o roughly our squaremiles. I you stacked a billionone-dollar bills, the stack

    would be almost 68 milestall. Laid end-to-end, a billionone-dollar bills would goaround the earth our times.

    OK. Thats what it wouldlook like.

    The bigger quest ion or

    the almost 60,000 residentso Lowndes County is: Whatdoes it mean?

    One thing it means is thatthe county has bucked a majortrend. Since 2008, when thefrst pangs o the Great Reces-sion frst began, the assessed

    value o the county has actual -ly grown by about 25 percent,

    which is pret ty amazing, giventhe breadth and scope o thehard times we are still tryingto recover rom nationally.

    It also means that the plan-ning that began years earlierhas proven to be successul.

    While there are many actorsin that growth, there are twothat stand apart. The frst isthe 2001 sale o the county

    hospital, which created a$30 mill ion trust und or thecounty and led to the creationo the Columbus-LowndesDevelopment Link, which hasexpanded to include Clay andOktibbeha counties to becomethe Golden Triangle Develop-ment Link.

    Under the Links guidance,

    the county has seen a boomin industrial development,the ull benefts o which thecounty is only beginning torealize. With the expirationo ee-in-lieu agreements ora handul o those big indus-trial developments soon athand, the county should reapan additional $3 million to $5million annually in revenues.

    While assessed value isone indicator o a healthycounty, challenges remainin making sure the windallsthat seem almost certain tocome the countys way will beused wisely, ensuring uturegrowth and making LowndesCounty a better place to liveand work and play.

    It is interesting to note thatduring this period o prosper-ity, the county has actuallylost population, a cause orconcern. We do not think itsa good idea or the county tobecome little more than onebig industrial park.

    Just as we are seeing theruits o wise planning anddecision-making that began a

    decade ago, it will be equallyimportant the county ofcialstake a long view o the roadahead. Old challenges remain.New challenges are sure toemerge.

    But there is reason oroptimism.

    A bill ion reasons, youmight say.

    There shouldnt have to be laws to compel theobvious, such as not hiring convicted government em-bezzlers or positions o public trust again. A halwaydecent background check and common sense shouldbe enough.

    Unortunately, sometimes in the past, both o thosehiring saeguards have apparently been missing instate and local governments in Mississippi. Thatswhy, at the urging o State Auditor Stacey Pickering,legislators this year passed a law that says anyone in agovernment job caught and convicted o stealing rom

    the taxpayers can never work in state or local govern-ment again.

    Last week brought the convictions o the frst twoto be impacted by the new law. A ormer Union Countycoroner pleaded guilty to submitting alse claims orpayment totaling more than $275,000. A ormer stateDepartment o Health employee pleaded guilty to em-bezzling more than $23,000.

    Both were hit with numerous penalties jail timeor house arrest and paying restitution or what theystole and or the states costs or catching them inaddition to the lietime ban rom government employ-ment.

    In a third case, Walthall County Deputy ChanceryClerk Kristy Laird pleaded guilty to one count o em-bezzlement, but she got o more lightly than the other

    two.Pickering said that Laird embezzled $15,531 romMarch 2011 through April 2013. She was sentenced tofve years, suspended, and two years probation. Shepaid restitution totaling $25,052, including accruedinterest and investigative costs.

    However, i Laird stays out o trouble her case willbe non-adjudicated at the end o the probationaryperiod, meaning her record will be wiped clean. Pick-ering, in his speech here, indicated he wasnt too happywith that part o the sentence.

    The new law sends a message that this state takesseriously when public employees steal rom taxpayers.It also should keep those who do the hiring rom givingthe thieves another crack at getting their hands in thepublic till.

    I wonder how manyothers were glued toC-Span at 1:00 on a re-cent Sunday morninglistening to the speech-es rom the foor o theUnited States House oRepresentatives pre -ceding a vote whoseoutcome was a ore-gone conclusion.

    I am risking havingmy sanity called into

    question when I admitthat I was and that Iwas ar more ascinated than thelevel o intrigue called or. Thespeeches in the middle o thenight made on the foor which, orthe most part, alternated betweenthe Democrats and the Republi-cans might just as well have beenbeamed in rom separate planetsrather than having been deliveredas they were rom a ew eet awayrom each other.

    The question has been otrepeated lately by those not paidto understand the machinationso government: What happensnow? Others ask, When has itbeen like this? Indeed, I hopethis observers next paycheckdoes not depend on knowing justhow ar this Congressional dead-lock can go and what will happeni it does indeed persist.

    Two major things take placeon Oct. 1. It is the rst day thatenrollment in health care insur-ance plans as prescribed by theA ordable Care Act (Obamacare)began. Secondly, it is also the rstday o a new scal year in whicha new budget or at least a newcontinuing resolution commenced

    unct ioning. The only problemwas that a signicant segment othe United States House main-tained that i the health caresignup moves orward then thebudget will not. The bottom linewas no budget no governmentunding.

    Has Congress ever witnessedsuch a sharp division between thetwo major parties in their opinionso the role o government? Have

    they ever reachedsuch a bitter impasse?A search or answersas to what history cantell us about Congressand its experiencesin discovering theindispensable art ocompromise ollowinga period o deadlockis not very rewarding,and it can be somewhatdisheartening. For

    instance, the period ogreatest disagreement

    and reusal to engage in a meet-ing o the minds is undoubtedlythe years immediately prior tothe Civil War. John C. Calhoun,perhaps the Ted Cruz o his day,supplied the language o nulli-cation and interposition that laterlead to the rationale or secessiono the Southern states.

    The 34th Congress in 1855 be-gan with pro-slavery and anti-slav-ery advocates killing each other inthe Bleeding Kansas territory.The violence made it to the Capi-tol when Massachusetts SenatorCharles Sumner denounced Con-gressional members who support-ed slavery and was subsequentlycaned within an inch o his lieby South Carolina RepresentativePreston Brooks on the Senatefoor. Ultimately, the Southernstates made good on their threatsto secede rom the union.

    In more modern times therehave been major uprisings. InMarch o 1956, 19 Senators and77 House members signed andissued The Southern Maniesto.This document was composed asa reaction by Southerners to the

    U. S. Supreme Courts decision inBrown vs. The Board o Edu-cation in 1954 ending the legalpractice o maintaining separatebut equal acilities or black andwhite citizens. T he SouthernManiesto stated in no uncertainterms the determination o theSouth not to abide by the hold-ing o the Court in the Browndecision. Mississippi SenatorJames O. Eastland, like Calhoun

    a century earlier, took up the callor nullication by the stateso ederal laws with which theseSouthern states disagreed. Yearso bloody confict ollowed as theCivil Rights movement began inearnest.

    The current situation in thenations capital is compoundedsignicantly as Oct. 17 has beenpegged as the absolute date bywhich the ceiling on the Federaldebt must be raised or the country

    risks deaulting on its previouslyincurred debt. In preparation orthat debate, Republicans in the U.S. House have prepared a laundrylist o virtually every prominentissue on their agenda which theyclaim must be addressed beorethe ceiling can be raised. Ocourse this list includes delayingimplementation o the A ord-able Care Act or a year. At thisjuncture neither the legislationattached to the continuing resolu-tion nor the legislation associatedwith the debt ceil ing stands anychance o passing the Democrat-ically-held Senate. This is wherewe run out o answers. Further-more, the lines have ormed justas planned on Oct. 1 to sign up orinsurance under the A ordableCare Act.

    It was said by one commentatorthat compromise is the lie bloodo our representative Democracy.Another opined that negotiationand compromise comprised theuel that makes the engine oAmerican Democracy run. It wasquite evident rom the midnightHouse debate that all the lines andall o the ta lking points in deenseo the two parties positions have

    been used many times over. Theultimate outcomes provided tous by history are too dismal tocontemplate.

    What remains is the answer tothe question How are we going toget out o this wilderness and whois going to lead us?

    WASHINGTON Abiotech drug rom Rochehas become the rst medi-cine approved to treat breastcancer beore surgery, o-ering an earlier approach

    against one o the deadliestorms o the disease.

    The Food and Drug Ad-ministration approved Per-jeta or women with a ormo early-stage breast cancerwho ace a high risk o hav-ing their cancer spread toother parts o the body.

    Surgery to remove tu-mors is usually the rst stepin treating most orms ocancer. Perjeta is the rstdrug to be approved as apre-surgical step.

    Doctors hope that usingcancer drugs earlier couldhelp shrink tumors, mak-

    ing them easier to remove.In some cases, that couldallow women to keep theirbreasts, rather than havinga ull mastectomy. Doctorsalso say that treating thedisease at its earliest stagescould prevent tumors romreturning later, though

    studies have not yet estab-lished that benet.

    By making eectivetherapies available to high-risk patients in the earliestdisease setting, we maydelay or prevent cancer re-currences, said FDAs Dr.Richard Pazdur.

    making its fnal stop othe day on Friday when

    Lucius got on the bus andassaulted the driver, whowas not identifed by au-thorities.

    Fred Tolan or about $13,000 in in-

    kind services to help the town closeout a large-scale sewer project was ta-bled until the boards Oct. 7 meetingto give county road manager RonnieBurns time to review the tasks hiscrew would have to perorm.

    Tolan said the town is fnishinga $800,000 sewage overhaul whichwill improve the quality o lie or res-idents. The town, however, is $19,000short o the remaining $101,000 proj -ect cost. Ater District 4 supervisore Smith made a motion to support

    the project, Board president HarrySanders said he was not opposed toassisting Craword but suggestedthe matter wait one week because he

    and Burns were seeing the requestor the frst time.

    (Burns) could probably do it ora lot cheaper than $13,000, Sanderssaid.

    The in-kind portion involves theremoval o rotting trees and under-growth as well as the addition o asmall clay gravel driveway.

The policy sets the ground rulesor Stephens Capital Managementand Renasant Wealth Managementon structuring o the und portolio.Those two fnancial consulting frmswere selected to manage the $30 mil-lion rom the countys hospital sale.

    The investment strategy sets al-location policy targets o 2 percent

    or cash equivalents, 58 percent orfxed income and 40 percent or eq-uities.

    Cash equivalent investments in-clude unds deposited in ederallyinsured institutions. Fixed incomeinvestments the two managementfrms can use are general obligationbonds, Mississippi Highway bonds,

    Tennessee Valley Authority bondsand bonds rated Single A or bet-ter. The frms will be able to investin stocks that are on NASDAQ andhave outstanding shares with at totalmarket value o $50 million or more.

    Financial consultant Bob Brad-ord o Pickett, Bradord and Associ-ates in Jackson, who guided trusteesthrough the frm selection process,said the policy gives them leeway butcontrol over how the frms invest.

    Under the policy, trustees expectto withdraw 3 percent o the bookvalue o the trust each year romwhat the frms investments earn.

    It has been rustrating towatch the flm aterward know-ing teams like Auburn are tryingto take me away rom the game,

    Perkins said Monday. Ive got to realize weveproven we can move the ball without big playsrom me because o how deenses are set up.Theyl l be times or me to get yards.

    Like his quarterback Tyler Russell, Perkins

    hasnt been the same since a 21-3 loss to then-No.

    13 Oklahoma State in the Texas Kicko Classic

    in Houston. Perkins had 16 carries or 50 yards

    and three catches or 52 yards against the Cow-

    their quest to win an Ala-

    Brown will have to do

    some serious work i he

    intends to improve

    just did what I could.

    Brown said he was in-

    kept him out o a hand-

    concerns about the role o staer Tyler Siskey during the gameagainst Ole Miss is much ado about nothing.

    Television cameras showed Siskey in the coaches box watchingthrough binoculars. That prompted some Rebels ans to complainon message boards and social media that he was spying.

    Siskey is the associate director or player personnel. Heworked or coach Hugh Freeze at Ole Miss last season and beorethat at Arkansas State.

    He didnt really assist in the game plan, and he wasnt on aheadset, Saban said. He didnt talk to anybody during the game.I dont know i theres any rule that says he cant go into the press

    box and watch the games. He wasnt in any dierent position thanhes been in a game.Freeze seems to agree with Saban. He didnt accuse Alabama

    o any wrongdoing and twice said he wanted to talk about histeams game against Auburn.

    NEW ORLEANS Drew Brees made his lat-est claim to the moniker oMr. Monday Night.

    He also gave the MiamiDolphins another reasonto regret not making aharder push to sign himwhen they had the chanceseven years ago.

    Brees passed or 413

    yards and our touch-downs, and the New Orle-ans Saints turned a clash ounbeaten teams into a lop-sided aair, beating Miami38-17 on Monday night.

    I elt like we ound ourrhythm, Brees said. Ev-ery time we touched theball, it elt like we were go-ing to go down and scorepoints.

    Two o Brees touch-downs went to Jimmy Gra-ham or 27 and 43 yards asthe tight end had at least100 yards receiving or thethird straight game.

    Brees other scoringstrikes went to BenjaminWatson and Darren Spro-les, who also rushed or atouchdown.

    He plays out o thisworld, Graham said.This team is so dynamic,we have so many weaponsand Drew knows exactlywhere to go with the bal l.

    Sproles 5-yard scoringrun on the games openingseries gave the Saints alead they would not relin-quish en route to their frst4-0 start since their SuperBowl championship sea-son o 2009. It also urtheraccentuated what a turn-around the Saints havemade since coach SeanPayton served his boun-ty ban last season, whichNew Orleans opened withour losses.

    Price yelled ater thetwo locked eyes, and theyembraced to start the cele-bration.

    He just told me he hada dream about it, Longoriasaid. It was awesome toeel that emotion rom him.Thats what an ace does.Thats what a leader o a

    sta does.Price, Longoria, and the

    Tampa Bay Rays are goingto playos again, gettingthere with a victory in theirfnal regular-season gameor the second time in threeyears. They needed an ex-tra game this time.

    Price pitched his ourthcomplete game this year,Longoria hit a two-run ho-mer and the Rays beat theTexas Rangers 5-2 in the ALwild-card tiebreaker gameMonday night, the 163rd

    game or both teams.When Price woke upMonday, all he could thinkabout was throwing a com-plete game, then gettingthat last out and turningstraight to Longoria.

    Youre probably sup-posed to go to your catcherfrst, but or what hes doneor us and what hes done orme personally, Price said.I think about that type ostu beore I pitch all thetime, but or it to happentoday. I didnt want to texthim when I thought about it.I didnt want to jinx it.

    Luckily or manageroe Maddon and the Rays,

    they werent done in by an-other blown call in Texas though this one did costthem at least one run.

    Tampa Bay will ace an-other must-win situationWednesday night at Cleve-land in the AL wild-cardgame, Tampas third gamein three cities in a our-daystretch. The winner willace Boston in the divisionseries.
