Loss of store could bring opportunities

BY KEITH INMAN Sun Staff Writer inman@jonesborosun.com

JONESBORO — The sadness of watching a longtime retailer wind down its business and its workers lose their jobs can also bring new opportunities.

That’s the case with Kmart,

which began liquidating its store at the corner of Highland Drive and South Caraway Road in late September.

Kmart could be replaced by as many as five dierent businesses and double the number of jobs, a real estate agent said.

Several national retailers

have expressed interest in the 87,543-square-foot space as soon as Kmart announced its plans, Barry Phillips of Phillips Investments said. Kmart has leased the space continuously since October 1980, Phillips

Deliberation starts in suit over sex ed

BY NEAL EMBRY Sun Staff Writer neal@jonesborosun.com

According to the ordinance, it’s unlawful for any person under the age of 18 to on the streets between midnight and 5 a.m. on Sunday through Thursday nights and from 1 to 5 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.

Since 2014 there have been 17 incidents of curfew violations that weren’t attached to another crime.

WILSON — Deliberations in a lawsuit filed by a former Rivercrest Elementary School sixth-grade math teacher against the school district are under way in Mississippi County Circuit Court.

The lawsuit alleges the school district fired Anthony C. Bridgeforth without proper cause, violating the Arkansas Fair Teacher Dismissal Act. Bridgeforth is seeking $3 million in damages.

Bridgeforth, who now resides in Memphis, was fired after 10 parents complained about a lecture Bridgeforth gave in April 2015 to about 100 students that was alleged to be of a sexual nature.

Bridgeforth claims in the lawsuit, which was filed in June 2015, that he caught multiple students sending sexually explicit text messages, propositioning each other and teachers for sex and attempting to view pornography in class.

After the discovery, Bridgeforth said he delivered a lecture warning his students about the dangers of premarital sex, telling them “having sex at their age could ruin their respective lives,� according to the lawsuit. Students were allowed to leave the room if they felt uncomfortable.

Parents complained to Superintendent Mike Smith, who suspended Bridgeforth and recommended the school board terminate his contract. In the lawsuit, Bridgeforth cites a letter he received from Smith, where Smith said Bridgeforth talked about more than the dangers of premarital sex. “You (Bridgeforth) materially deviated from the math curriculum you were supposed to be teaching, and instead spoke to the students on a wide variety of age-inappropriate topics, including but not limited to, explaining the mechanics of heterosexual intercourse, prostitution, multiple sexual

Ordinance sprung from ’80s cruising

BY STEPHEN SIMPSON Sun Staff Writer ssimpson@jonesborosun.com

JONESBORO — Back in the 1980s, the city of Jonesboro passed a city ordinance to corral what they believed were out-of-control youngsters. Now the seldom used ordinance is law enforcement’s way of letting parents know what is going on with their children late at night.

Three juveniles were recently stopped by a police oďŹƒcer at 2 a.m. and cited with curfew violations, po-

lice said.

The incident occurred at the intersection of Flint Street and West Oak Avenue. An oďŹƒcer said he was in the area in reference to a vehicle break-in that had recently occurred when three suspects fled the scene. He said while he was traveling he noticed three juveniles walking on the sidewalk. The juveniles were then transported to the police department to be picked up by their parents, and curfew violation forms were completed for all three subjects, according to the police report.

When is the curfew enforced?

Students take assembly to veterans

BY DIXON LAND Sun Staff Writer dland@jonesborosun.com

JONESBORO — Packing into the mid-sized dinning room at St. Bernards Senior Citizens Center, Bill Brown quietly found a chair toward the front of the room.

Dressed casually and walking calmly, Brown wasn’t instantly noticed by all in the room. As he took his seat, a few high school students talked with him briefly about his service. Even at 18 years old, the students did not realize they were talking to a former Army Green Beret, or what

the students would know him as — U.S. Army Special Forces.

Students filed into the small gathering of war veterans and their families. The students, from Nettleton High School, had already been to another nursing home before and were headed to another two after.

The visits were a part of Nettleton’s Traveling Veterans Program, a 30-minute program performed for veterans who couldn’t attend a veterans’ assembly at a local school. “I really applaud the school for doing this,� Brown said. “To come here among the ones that

can’t physically get out means the world to them and me. They took the time to come out here and not make it about them, but about those men and women who were called to serve their country.�

Nettleton counselor Sandra Taylor is behind the event. Taylor has been organizing Veterans Day assemblies at Nettleton High School for years, but after some discussion with a few veterans, she realized a need wasn’t being met. “This is the very first time Please see ASSEMBLY | A2

2 officers hurt, suspect killed Associated Press

BOISE, Idaho — Authorities say two Idaho police officers were injured and a suspect was dead after a shooting during a search for a fugitive.

Police were doing a yard-to-yard search for the fugitive about 3:25 p.m. Friday when the gunfire broke out in a Boise neighborhood.

Boise police say the man who was killed in the shootout is 33-year-old Marco Romero, a recent parolee who was sought in connection with a Tuesday shooting in Meridian that injured two people. Authorities did not release the names of the injured officers, but one of them was being treated in the emergency room and the other was in surgery at St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center Friday evening.

A police dog named Jardo was also injured in the shooting, and was taken to a veterinary emergency

hospital for treatment.

Resident Jeff Sele said he was talking with someone on the street when he heard the gunfire.

“I heard guns and shotguns, it sounded like to me. You can definitely tell the difference between a gun and shotgun blast.

It happened real fast....

It was 10 to 12 shots, and then it was done,” Sele said.

Officer-involved shootings in the Boise region aren’t common, but Friday’s shooting marked the third such incident in the region in the last 24 hours. Ada County Sheriff’s deputies shot a 72-year-old man from Melba Thursday night after a vehicle chase, and Caldwell police shot a man on Friday who was suspected of attempted to break into a home. Their conditions were not immediately known.

Idaho law enforcement officers have fatally shot five people so far this year.

Chicago chief, protesters to meet monthly

BY DON BABWIN Associated Press

CHICAGO — Chicago’s police chief agreed Friday to hold monthly meetings with a group of black high school students who had planned a demonstration protesting an officer’s fatal shooting of a black man and racist text messages distributed by students at another school.

Superintendent Eddie Johnson met with the group of public school students, the principal of a Catholic school where students distributed the texts and leaders in the Mount Greenwood community on the city’s South Side. He commended the students for “forcing” officials to discuss their safety concerns and assured them that if they do decide to protest, police will make sure they’re protected.

Marist, the Catholic high school, canceled classes Friday after the group that calls itself Black Lives Matter Youth scheduled a demonstration.

said.

Mark Young, president of the Jonesboro Regional Chamber of Commerce, said it’s always disappointing to see a business close.

“However, Jonesboro continues to see growth in the retail and commercial sectors,” Young said. “The growth of the economy should lead to additional job creation opportunities.”

Haag-Brown Commercial Real Estate has been engaged to assure that the space won’t be vacant very long after Kmart departs.

“We are already in negotiations with national retailers about

ORDINANCE that space,” Josh Brown of Haag-Brown said Friday. “None of them have committed to it because it just now happened.”

Potential tenants are companies that haven’t been here before, he said.

“Some of them are grocery stores, some of them are soft good stores, some of them are hunting and fishing stores,” Brown said. “Without saying any specific names, it’s like, who do you drive to Memphis to shop at, or Little Rock, that aren’t in Jonesboro? Those are who the people are that we’re going after.”

Kmart has engaged Collier’s International to help with that effort.

The sooner new tenants

can be found, the sooner Kmart can terminate its lease with Phillips.

Sears Holdings, parent company of Kmart, has closed more than 400 stores since 2012. Still, Sears Holdings Real Estate reports on its website that it owns more than 2,500 properties across the United States, including some vacant lots.

About 22,000 vehicles daily cross the Highland Drive-Caraway Road intersection in each direction, according to 2015 traffic counts by the Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department. It’s the second-busiest intersection in Jonesboro.

Brown said the traffic

alone will draw investors.

But more importantly, the space can be offered at a fraction of the cost of new construction.

“An existing building always has the advantage over a raw piece of dirt,” Brown said.

If one major retailer doesn’t take the space, the Kmart building can be divided into four, Brown said.

An outpad in front of Kmart could also be developed into another restaurant, Brown added.

Based on the contacts his company has already had, Phillips said he’s optimistic.

“I think it’s going to be something that the citizens will be proud of,” Phillips said.

lecture with his lawyer’s office, but his lawyer said he was unaware of any such recording.

Bridgeforth said in the lawsuit the school had no right to fire him because there is no policy stating he could not discuss sexual topics as needed.

“Plaintiff (Bridgeforth) argued that his actions did not violate any specific provision of Rivercrest School District policy and procedures.

Plaintiff contended that the discussion was little different than any other in-class discipline.”

Smith provided information about the school’s sexual education policy, but there was no specific statement about teachers not being able to talk to their students about sex-

ual education provided.

The school sends a letter home asking teachers for permission to present a program. The school nurse’s name is listed at the bottom of the letter.

The school also provided goals associated with the program to The Sun. Bridgeforth also claims there was no quorum at the board meeting in which he was terminated. There were four board members at the meeting, but the school board minutes show one board member abstained from voting, although that board member did take part in the rest of the meeting, including voting to accept the Smith’s facts of finding.

Bridgeforth claims the board member, Freddy

Ward, had a conflict of interest and, in his abstention, the quorum was dissolved and he did not receive a fair trial.

According to the terms of Arkansas Code 16-13619(c)(1)(C), if a board member announces a conflict of interest with regard to an issue, the member must abstain and will not be considered for the purpose of a quorum.

The school’s response was that while Ward abstained, he did not announce a conflict of interest, and therefore, the quorum was still valid.

Bridgeforth’s lawyers did not return multiple calls seeking comment, and no contact information for Bridgeforth could be found.

partnering, sexually explicit topics which have violated community standards and represent a complete lack of professional judgment on your part,” the lawsuit states.

Smith told Bridgeforth he did not have permission to teach sexual education, and told The Sun sexual education is taught strictly by school nurses and that teachers must obtain school and parental approval before engaging in such discussion with students.

“Mr. Bridgeforth was a math teacher,” Smith said. “He veered from curriculum ... He didn’t get prior permission.”

Smith said there was an audio recording of the

and speak to members of the (Chicago Police Department), I would facilitate,” he said.

The meeting came amid increased tensions in the predominantly white neighborhood that is home to many police officers, firefighters and other city employees. An off-duty police officer fatally shot Joshua Beal, a

25-year-old Indianapolis resident. Police say Beal pointed a gun at the officer during a melee that began when an off-duty firefighter told the driver of the vehicle Beal was in that it needed to be moved because it was blocking a fire station’s driveway.

Since then, activists have held at least two demonstrations — both of which attracted largely white crowds that shouted profanity and raciallycharged language at the protesters.

At Marist, administrators launched an investigation after media reports that some female students in a group text discussed the shooting and the subsequent protests, with one using the N-word. In a message posted online, school officials said they were “devastated by the incident” and that security at the school had been increased. The school also said that “disciplinary action” had already been taken but they would not elaborate.

According to a city ordinance, the first violation of the curfew results in a warning. For a second offense, a parent may be fined not less than $100 or more than $500. Any

juvenile who violates the curfew more than three times will be reported by the chief of police to juvenile authorities.

Craighead County Juvenile Court District Supervisor Lewis Davis said his division rarely sees curfew citations.

“The only time we deal with juveniles and curfew violations is if they are already on probation and they violate the terms of their probation with a curfew violation,” Davis said. “I am pretty sure district court handles curfew violations since it’s part of the city.”

Duncan said she wasn’t sure who handles curfew violations.

“I mean it might go to us since it’s a city ordinance,” Duncan said. “I don’t recall seeing one in district court.

Our ordinance has that warning procedure. Maybe they are just giving out warnings and that is all.”

Out of the 17 reported curfew violations, 16 African-Americans were cited compared to 12 Caucasians. According to the United States Census Bureau white people make up 74.7 percent of Jonesboro’s population while African-American’s make up 18.4 percent.

JPD spokesman Paul Holmes said he doesn’t have an exact answer for why the number is higher for African-Americans, but cautions jumping to conclusions.

“I don’t think it’s a case of anyone being targeted,” Holmes said. “It’s just the way it happened.

White or black, the officer will check on the child.

We have a responsibility to protect every child regardless of the situation.”

then the next talking to someone who is currently serving. We tried to find something that we were comfortable with but would also be authentic for them.”

Taylor said the program is completely designed with the intention of saying thank you.

“I think it’s cool that we could take our program to them to say thank you,” Taylor said. “Honoring veterans is something that is really dear to my heart. At Nettleton, we want to teach them of the sacrifices that our veterans have made for us. That’s not something we take lightly.”

Brown, who currently

serves as a regional executive for Blue Cross Blue Shield, said Veterans Day is something no one should take lightly.

“Veterans Day is a very emotional day for anybody who’s a veteran. I’m sitting here this morning, and I’m listening to this choir sing, and I’m watching them perform and quite honestly, it’s extremely moving,” Brown said. “It’s very encouraging as a veteran to watch these young people speak and sing from the heart as they sing about God, country, family, honor, duty and courage. It helps us renew our faith in the younger generation.”

Why was the curfew created?

According to the city ordinance, the city council created it out of fear.

“The city council hereby finds there has been a significant increase in crime and unacceptable behavior involving juveniles within the city, which includes, but is not limited, to noisy and rowdy behavior, breaking and entering, public drinking and littering, harassment of residents, and more serious and violent crimes including battery and murder,” city ordinance number 2513 states.

City Attorney Carol Duncan said she believes the curfew was created for less dire reasons.

“In the 80s kids would cruise on Nettleton Avenue,” Duncan said. “I remember hearing about the traffic getting so extreme that you couldn’t move. I think the curfew was created to cut that down.”

Traffic Sgt. George Martin said he remembers those days.

“We would drive around in a circle,” Martin said.

“We would pass each other and honk when we saw somebody we knew. Just going from Sonic to McDonald’s to Burger King.

Sounds fun, right?”

we’ve taken our program on the road, but we have so many veterans that are no longer available to come to our program at the school, so we just wanted to honor those that weren’t able to come,” Taylor said.

Jacelyn McDaniel, a senior at Nettleton High School, has been participating in the Nettleton Veterans Day assemblies for four years but said incorporating a traveling day has been a big addition.

“Seeing the people that we can’t honor because they couldn’t come, it kind of breaks my heart,”

McDaniel said. “So it’s nice to be able to go out and show them the respect that they deserve.”

The Veterans Day program at Nettleton High School is a two-hour long extravaganza featuring poems, songs, performances and speeches from people like the mayor and an emotional candlelit vigil. But a big challenge for the students was how to condense a two-hour program into 30-minute sessions.

“Understanding the age grouping is a big part of planning for something like this,” McDaniel said.

“I could be talking to a WWII vet one minute and

The First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States: ‘Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.’

THE JONESBORO SUN

How new Republican majority can succeed

Donald Trump won fair and square and, as Hillary Clinton said in her concession speech, is owed an open mind and a chance to lead. It is therefore incumbent upon conservatives (like me) who have been highly critical of Trump to think through how to make a success of the coming years of Republican rule.

It begins by recognizing Trump’s remarkable Charles political instincts. As Krauthammer | Paul Ryan noted in his morning-after olivebranch news conference, Trump heard “a voice out in this country that no one else heard.” Trump spoke to and for a working class squeezed and ruined by rapid technological and economic transformation.

One of the principal tasks for the now-dominant GOP is to craft a governing agenda that actually alters their lives and prospects. In the end, it was this constituency of those left behind by the new globalized digital economy that delivered the presidency to Trump.

Nonetheless, this election was not just about the social/economic divide. It was also about the ideological divide between left and right. The most overlooked factor in the election is the continuing deep and widespread dissatisfaction with Obamaism.

It tends to be overlooked because President Obama remains personally popular (56 percent in the latest Gallup).

As a charismatic campaigner, whenever his name is on the ballot, he wins. But when it’s not — 2010, 2014, now 2016 — the Democrats get shellacked.

The reason is no mystery. The problem was never with Obama himself, but with his policies. Before each of those losing elections Obama would campaign saying that his name wasn’t on the ballot but his policies — and now his legacy — were.

The voters made clear what they thought of his policies and legacy.

Simply put, from the beginning of his presidency, Obama overreached ideologically, most spectacularly with his signature legislative achievement — Obamacare. The spike in Obamacare premiums and deductibles just two weeks before Tuesday’s election proved a particularly damaging reminder of what Obamaism had wrought.

Hence the other principal task for the now dominant GOP: Undo Obamaism.

Begin with canceling Obama’s executive orders on everything from immigration to climate change. Then overturn his more elaborate legislative adventures into overweening liberalism, starting, of course, with Obamacare.

The promise of a Trump presidency is that, if it can successfully work with

a Republican Congress, it could turn Obamaism into a historical parenthesis.

Republicans would then have a chance to enact the Reaganite agenda that has been incubating while in exile from the White House.

For years Washington gridlock has been attributed to GOP obstructionism.

On the contrary, serious legislation, such as Medicare reform passed by the GOP House, was either strangled in the Senate by Democratic leader Harry Reid or died by veto on President Obama’s desk.

Beyond the undoing, there’s now the prospect of doing. Serious border enforcement, including a wall, for example. That’s not only a good in itself, it would offer leverage in a grand bargain that would include eventual legalization of resident illegal immigrants, an idea supported (according to the exit polls) by more than seven in 10 voters.

Another given is a reshaping of the currently rudderless Supreme Court with the nomination of a conservative justice to replace the late Antonin Scalia.

During the campaign, Trump’s populism often clashed with traditional Reaganism. The key to GOP success is to try to achieve an accommodation, if not a fusion. Two agendas: one ideological, one socioeconomic. They both need to be addressed. Onto the Reaganite core of smaller government and strict constitutionalism must be added a serious concern for the grievances of the constituency that animated the Trump insurgency, the long-suffering, long-neglected working class.

If Reaganite conservatives want to head off wrongheaded solutions — such as massive tariffs, mercantilist economics and trade wars — they must be prepared to accept such measures as federal wage subsidies and targeted restraints on trade. This involves giving up a measure of economic efficiency.

But the purpose is to achieve a measure of social peace and restore dignity and security to a stressed and sliding working class. Some might even call it compassionate conservatism.

The key to success for a Trump presidency is for the Reaganite and populist elements in the party to be willing to advance each other’s goals even at the cost of ideological purity. This will require far-reaching negotiations between a Trump White House and a GOP Congress. The Republicans have gained control of all the political branches.

They have the means to deliver. They now have to show that they can.

Charles Krauthammer’s email address is letters@charleskrauthammer.com. (c) 2016, The Washington Post Writers Group

Chance to change the narrative Donald Trump’s impressive victory in Tuesday’s election offers him a rare opportunity to change the narrative.

Secular progressive policies at home and abroad are not working. The establishment has had its chance — multiple chances, in fact — to fix things, but it has failed, or didn’t try, under Republican and Democratic administraCal tions. Voters are taking a big chance with Trump, Thomas | but things have gotten so bad that the election shows many millions of Americans are willing to try something new.

This was more than a change election. It was a revolution. Now, the question becomes: What will the Republicans do with it? If Trump is smart, he will call on the GOP congressional leadership to write the legislation that will achieve his objectives. These include the repeal and replacement of Obamacare, immigration reform and building the wall, school choice for the poor, rebuilding inner cities and infrastructure and nominating conservative judges to the Supreme Court and lower courts.

The election vindicates the decision by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell not to hold hearings on President Barack Obama’s nominee to the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland, until the election results were known.

Garland will never join the high court.

The courts may be saved from secular progressives for years to come and the Constitution respected again. That is victory by anyone’s definition.

An added bonus is that Trump can use executive orders to immediately reverse President Obama’s executive orders, which he used to bypass Congress.

The left will demand that Trump “reach out” and work with Demo-

crats, but that is a trap. Recall what Democrats did when they won the White House, the Senate and House in 2008. They rammed through legislation that reflected their worldview. Trump should do the same, but without triumphalism. He must prove his policies work and can achieve the goals he has set: economic growth, more private-sector jobs, bringing corporations home from overseas with a lower corporate tax rate and defeating the Islamic State. The only reason to have power is to use power.

Democrats understand this. Too often timid Republicans don’t. They must now use it, or they will lose it.

Trump’s victory is part of a global movement to throw off incompetent leaders, reduce the size and cost of government and restore countries to the values that have made them uniquely British, German, French and American.

Now comes the hard part. Because Trump’s background is neither politics nor government, he must call on those with such experience to help him.

Vice President-elect Mike Pence is the perfect starting point. Pence’s years in Congress and his executive experience as governor of Indiana make him the go-to guy for navigating the labyrinth that is Washington. He may turn out to be the most consequential vice president since Dick Cheney.

All the pieces are now in place to yank America back from the brink.

This is an opportunity that comes along once in a century. Success will silence the critics, who won’t go quietly and accept defeat. If Trump succeeds in all he has promised, he will have saved the country from disaster.

It will be said of him that he really did make America great again.

Aligning self-interest with the public interest

Conservative economists are fond of saying that the pursuit of self-interest advances the public interest. Adam Smith, considered by many economists to be the father of economics, enshrined the concept of self-interest with his “invisible hand” quote, “Every individual neither intends to promote the public interest, Gary nor knows how much he Latanich| is promoting it, rather he intends only his own gain, and as such is led by an invisible hand to promote an end (the public interest) which was no part of his intention.”

However, Adam Smith was not naive.

Although not widely quoted he also said, “People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.”

Today our belief in self-interest is reinforced by the belief that self-interest adds consistency and purpose to our economic system. For businesses, selfinterest takes the form of profit maximization. For consumers, self-interest takes the form of utility maximization (buying what is in our best interest).

Knowing this, government can align self-interest with the public interest by

establishing regulations. Regulations are basically “the rules of the game.”

They outline what is legal and allowable and what is not. Whether a regulation is effective, can be determined by its ability to align self-interest with the public interest to advance society’s goals.

An example of the failure of regulation to align self-interest with the public interest can be seen in the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The concept of providing assistance for the purchase of health insurance is sound, but the administrative rules that accompanied it did not fully recognize the implications of selfinterest and how it would play out as it relates to both cost and subscribership.

As we have recently seen, for some counties, the premium increases for the ACA are averaging 25 percent. Part of the problem is that young people are not subscribing in numbers that were originally projected. The reason for this is simple. The tax penalty for not buying insurance in one of the insurance marketplaces is less than the sum of annual premiums one would pay if they bought insurance. Given that young people can reasonably expect to not need insurance in the near future, it makes better financial sense to pay the tax than buy insurance. But by not buying insurance, the pool of those who do buy is older, and most likely sicker, necessitating

significantly higher premiums.

The government should have recognized that self-interest possibility and set the tax penalty at a level higher than the annual premium costs. If they had done, so we would see young people buying insurance to avoid an even higher tax penalty. The result of this would have been a larger pool of subscribers’ who, on average, would be younger and less costly to insure simply because they were in better health. If we had done this, we would have aligned the self-interest of young people with the public interest of more affordable health care.

The government’s second mistake was allowing the insurance companies to treat the uninsured as a separate market. Unfortunately, this is how private insurance works. They’re allowed to “cherry pick” the firms and organizations they want to insure. The older the group, the higher the premium, expand the group to include younger individuals and the average premium declines.

Medicare insures all people older than the age of 65 and has premiums that are much lower than private insurance firms even though the premium split (75 percent government and 25 percent Medicare recipients) mirrors that of private insurers. The reason private insurers subdivide the market

(cherry pick) is to maximize their profits. But this self-interest aspect of the insurance market does not advance the public interest of universal health care at least cost.

One solution would be to allow insurance companies to be monopolies in various regions of the U.S. (a small scale version of the single payer plan) and treat them like public utilities, which are regulated by public utility commissions, and which are required to allow for a fair return on invested capital (self-interest) while at the same time constraining price increases and eliminating the possibility of monopoly type profits (the public interest).

The bottom line is that aligning selfinterest with the public interest is not going to just happen. One of government’s roles is to establish contract law and business regulations to align selfinterest and the public interest.

If we heed the constant drum beat for deregulation as a means of achieving economic growth, we will only succeed is achieving record growth in corporate profits at the expense of the public interest.

Trump shakes up team, elevates Pence’s role

BY JULIE PACE AND JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press

Associated Press

Vice President-elect Mike Pence pauses for photos Friday after speaking at a Veterans Day ceremony at Camp Atterbury in Edinburgh, Ind. President-elect Donald Trump elevated Pence to head the operations of Trump’s transition team.

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump shook up his transition team Friday as he plunged into the work of setting up his administration, elevating Vice Presidentelect Mike Pence to head the operations.

The move, one of the first key decisions as Trump pivots from campaigning to governing, amounted to a demotion for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who had been running the Republican’s transition planning for months.

On the heels of Trump’s upset victory this week, his team has begun to embark upon building a government, an enormous undertaking that likely requires Trump

to alter his hands-on management style and consider going outside his small, insular group of loyalists.

He has been scrambling to identify people for top White House jobs and Cabinet posts, a herculean task that must be well in hand by the time Trump is inaugurated on Jan. 20.

For Trump, who ran on a pledge to “drain the swamp” of Washington insiders, the team is strikingly heavy on those with long political resumes.

And another apparent contradiction emerged Friday as Trump, who repeatedly vowed to repeal the Affordable Care Act “on day one,” said he would be open to maintaining portions of President Barack Obama’s signature legislative achievement.

In a statement Friday, Trump said Pence would “build on the initial work” done by Christie.

“Together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding this nation — specifically jobs, security and opportunity,” Trump said.

Christie was a loyal adviser to Trump for much of the campaign, offered a key early endorsement and came close to being the businessman’s pick for running mate.

But Trump ultimately went with Indiana Gov. Pence, a former congressman with Washington experience and deep ties to conservatives.

In a statement, Christie said he was “proud to have run the preelection phase” of the transition team and thanked Trump for the “opportunity to continue to help lead.”

13 red, purple state Democrats face re-election in age of Trump

BY ALAN FRAM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A long list of Senate Democrats who face re-election in 2018 are from states Donald Trump won or nearly won on Election Day. That could mean a politically excruciating next two years for many of them and for party leaders trying to chart a legislative path as the new age of Trump begins.

The election two years from now had already looked difficult for Senate Democrats, who must defend 25 seats compared to just eight held by Republicans. The Democrats’ list includes two independents, Vermont’s Bernie Sanders and Maine’s Angus King, who align with them.

Of those 25 senators, 13 are from states Trump captured or nearly won.

Among those are Maine, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, which hadn’t backed a GOP presidential candidate since the 1980s, leaving both parties trying to discern how much Tuesday may have reordered the lineup of blue, red and swing states.

Five Democrats are from states Trump easily carried, by 19 percentage points or more — Indiana, North Dakota, West Virginia, Missouri and Montana.

“They should be terrified,” Ward Baker, executive director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, the Senate GOP’s political organization, said of the Democrats.

Republicans are expected to control the Senate next year 52-48, including a Louisiana runoff in December the GOP is ex-

Kerry talks climate change, not Trump

pected to win. With Democrats able to use filibusters to force the GOP to secure 60 votes on major issues, likely new Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., should often be able to block Republicans, especially on issues Democrats broadly support such as consumer protection and curbs on Wall Street.

But it will probably be harder for Schumer to keep Democrats together on issues crucial to conservative voters including the Supreme Court, abortion, guns and weakening the Environmental Protection Agency.

Some Democratic senators could also be drawn to Trump’s efforts to revamp portions of President Barack Obama’s health care law and tighten curbs on immigrants in the U.S. illegally.

Obama urges unity among Americans

Associated Press

Associated Press

McMURDO STATION, Antarctica — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry didn’t comment on Donald Trump’s election victory while visiting Antarctica, but did say that citizens who care about limiting emissions might have to march in the streets to push for more aggressive action.

Kerry became the highest-ranking American official to visit Antarctica when he landed for a two-day trip on Friday.

He’s been hearing from scientists about the impact of climate change on the frozen continent.

Trump has called climate change a hoax and said he would “cancel” U.S. involvement in the landmark Paris Agreement on global warming.

“We need to get more of a movement going,” Kerry said when addressing several hundred scientists and staff at an evening event at McMurdo Station, the large base which is the hub for U.S. operations. “We need to get more people to engage.”

Kerry said there was a risk that much of Antarctica’s ice will eventually flow into the ocean, raising sea levels worldwide.

ARLINGTON, Va. — Three days after Election Day, President Barack Obama used his last Veterans Day speech to urge Americans to learn from the example of veterans as a divided nation seeks to “forge unity” after the bitter 2016 campaign.

Obama, in remarks at Arlington National Cemetery, noted that Veterans Day often comes on the heels of hardfought campaigns that “lay bare disagreements across our nation.”

“But the American instinct has never been to find isolation in opposite corners,” Obama said. “It is to find strength in our common creed, to forge unity from our great diversity, to maintain that strength and unity even when it is hard.”

He added that now that the election is over, “as we search for ways to come together, to reconnect with one another and with the principles that are more enduring than transitory politics, some of our best examples are the men and women we salute on Veterans Day.” Tuesday’s election of Republican Donald Trump led to protests across the country.

Associated Press

Kurdish Peshmerga fighters rest on the side of the road Friday after taking the city from Islamic State militants in Bashiqa, east of Mosul, Iraq.

UN reports civilian killings, other atrocities in Mosul Associated Press

BASHIQA, Iraq — New reports emerged Friday of public killings and other atrocities committed against Mosul residents

by Islamic State militants, including dozens of civilians whose bulletriddled bodies were hung from telephone polls after they were accused of using cellphones to leak information to Iraqi security forces.

The United Nations human rights office said IS fighters killed some 70 civilians in Mosul this week, part of a litany of abuses to come to light in recent days, including torture, sexual exploitation of women and girls, and use of child soldiers

who were filmed executing civilians.

The revelations are the latest reports of IS brutality as the group retreats into dense urban quarters of Iraqi’s second-largest city, forcing the population to go with them as human shields.

In its report, the U.N. human rights office in Geneva said IS shot and killed 40 people on Tuesday after accusing them of “treason and collaboration,” saying they communicated with Iraqi security forces by cellphone. The bodies, dressed in orange jumpsuits, were hung from electrical poles in Mosul.

A day later, the extremists reportedly shot

to death 20 civilians at a military base. Their bodies were hung at traffic intersections in Mosul, with signs saying they “used cellphones to leak information.”

A Mosul resident, reached by telephone, said crowds have been watching the killings in horror. One victim was a former police colonel, he said, speaking on condition of anonymity out of fear for his safety.

The violence is part of a disturbing pattern.

As the army advances, IS militants have been rounding up thousands of people and killing those with suspected links to the security forces.

WYNNE — Marjorie Jo (Mar-Jo) VanDalsem Spence of Wynne passed away peacefully at home surrounded by loved ones on Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2016. She was 92 years old.

Mar-Jo was born at home on Jan. 28, 1924, to Harry Eldridge VanDalsem and Marjorie Jaco VanDalsem of Perryville.

She grew up in Perryville where she graduated from Perryville High School and attended Hendrix College in Conway for three years, transferring her fourth year to the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education.

Upon completion of her degree she joined the war effort, working in the office of a war production plant at Camden until the

end of the war. After this she moved to Wynne and taught first grade in the Wynne Public Schools.

She met her future husband T.O. Spence, a fiveyear war veteran who had come to Wynne on a year of furlough, at a blind date Canasta card game set up by mutual friends.

They instantly hit it off and dated every night for the next three months, except for two days when they both had the flu, and then were married at the old Methodist Parsonage in Wynne.

They would go on to celebrate 50 happy years together. When Mar-Jo moved to Wynne, she quickly came to love the community and became involved in it. She loved music and joined the Wynne Music Club. At the time of her passing, she was the club’s most senior member and was honored with a special award of dedication on Veterans Day in 2014.

She was a devout member of First United Methodist Church in Wynne where she taught the kindergarten Sunday school class for more than 35 years as well as being a member with her husband of the Go Getters Sunday school class.

At the request of friends, she formed the Cross County Hospital Auxiliary and served in numerous positions, including more than 30 years co-chairing the Scholarship Committee, remaining until the hospital became part of the St. Bernards system.

She volunteered in many capacities in the community including Cub Scout den Mmother, Brownie Scout leader, member of the Order of the Eastern Star, school volunteer and was a regular visitor to Wynne’s nursing homes up until her last few years.

One of her most cherished activities was gathering with her Ladies Coffee Group, an informal group of friends and neighbors with children

who met at each other’s houses every weekday at 3:30 to drink coffee and share everyday events in their lives. This special group of friends met for more than 60 years. MarJo was especially devoted to the city park in front of her house where she and her oldest children planted pine seedlings that are now towering at each end.

She was a tireless advocate for maintaining and improving the park and loved spending her golden years in her carport sipping coffee and watching the children playing.

In addition to being a homemaker, Mar-Jo was active in business, helping with bookkeeping and accounting at her husband’s Gulf gas stations and bulk oil plant, the T.O. Spence Oil Co. She and her husband bought farmland and worked to improve their land.

She and her husband served on the board of directors of the Perry County Bank, a small bank started by her father, and upon her mother’s passing she was elected to fill her position as chairman of the board where she served until its sale in 1980. She was a highly regarded businesswoman with a reputation for fairness and generosity.

Mar-Jo was preceded in death by her parents, H.E. and Marjorie VanDalsem of Perryville; and her son-in-law Stan Langley of Jonesboro.

She is survived by her children, Talmage Van Spence, Gregory Glenn Spence (and wife Alisa) of Wynne and Sharon Spence Langley of Jonesboro.

She is also survived by her three beloved grandchildren, Katherine Eldridge Langley of Chicago, Talmadge Nicholas Spence and Cole Glenn Spence of Wynne.

She also leaves a group of longtime loving caregivers, Nelda Boatner, Dusty Stewart, Patricia Stewart, Wanda Diggs, Brenda Goacher, Jazmine

Police, Courts She said she knew the garage door was closed when she went to bed, but the garage door was open when she woke up, and her car was damaged. Police said the vehicle was scratched twice on the driver’s side and once on the passenger side.

Man tried to lure juvenile, police say JONESBORO — The area of Gee Street and Jefferson Avenue was placed on extra patrols after a man tried to get a 14-year-old girl into a vehicle with him Friday morning, police said.

The caller told police that her daughter had walked to Gee Street Market before they all left for school that morning. While en route back home, she said her daughter was approached by a man in a pickup truck who attempted to lure her into the vehicle with him.

The victim told police the suspect pulled up beside her on the roadway and asked her if she needed a ride. She said told the suspect no and continued to walk into her yard from the roadway, but the male asked her one time before she yelled at him to leave her alone.

City seeks mural design proposals Special to The Sun

JONESBORO — In accordance with its Fearlessly Brilliant public art initiative, the Downtown Jonesboro Association is now seeking mural proposals from artists interested in creating a signature piece for downtown murals.

Artists from around the community are encouraged to submit their rendering. The mural should be distinctive through use of design and color, suitable and acceptable for public viewing of all ages. The goals of the Downtown Mural Project are to beautify a public space in the “arts and entertainment” sector of Downtown Jonesboro, to increase pedestrian traffic and attract local and regional visitors to view the

mural artwork.

Fearlessly Brilliant is a public art initiative of the Downtown Jonesboro Association Design Committee and operates through use of funds provided by grants.

The Downtown Jonesboro Association board has successfully completed two mural projects downtown thus far, and are hoping to fill two other mural spaces soon with this fall’s request for proposals.

Artists interested in creating a work of public art should submit the application and additional materials no later than Dec. 2 to be considered.

The application can be found on the Downtown Jonesboro Association website: www.downtownjonesboro.com.

Students need holiday hosts ROTC inducts 5

JONESBORO — The OďŹƒce of Residence Life at Arkansas State University is helping find host families for international students at Thanksgiving. “Residence Life is inviting faculty and sta to participate in a Thanksgiving week activity that benefits some of the students who are far from

home while allowing AState faculty and sta an opportunity to demonstrate some Red Wolves hospitality,� said Casi Crawford, international liaison in Residence Life.

Because travel to home countries is usually not practical during the holiday break, most international students remain

on campus. “I encourage families to ‘adopt’ one or more international students to invite to your home for a nice, warm Thanksgiving meal. I can assure you the international student(s) will be very appreciative of your eorts, while you and your family will be treated to some very unique per-

spectives regarding another culture,� she added.

Interested families may contact Crawford at the OďŹƒce of Residence Life, cacrawford@AState. edu or (870) 972-2042, as quickly as possible so appropriate information can be exchanged in advance between the student and the host family.

HOMESTEAD, Pa. — Police oďŹƒcers shot an armed man inside a mental health facility after he stabbed several people and put down his knife but refused to drop his gun while his victims were bleeding badly, authorities said.

Seven people were taken to hospitals, including the man and at least four stabbing victims, Allegheny County spokeswoman Amie Downs said. It was unclear if any injuries were life-threatening after the Friday afternoon attack at Turtle Creek Valley Mental Health/ Mental Retardation in Homestead, just south-

east of Pittsburgh.

Police implored 38-year-old Dustin Johnson to drop his gun or be shot based on texts from inside that the victims were bleeding profusely and needed help, Downs said. Johnson dropped his knife but not the gun before he was shot, she said.

Employee C.J. Fulton told WTAE-TV that the man complained that a stay at the facility had “ruined� his life.

There was no telephone number listed for Johnson, who was conscious when he was taken to a hospital for treatment, Downs said.

Johnson apparently gained entry to the secure

facility before attacking people on the fifth floor, authorities said. “He started talking to us regularly,� Fulton told the TV station. “Next thing you know he pulled a gun.�

Fulton said Johnson was angry from something that happened when he was staying at the facility. “He just started saying, ‘You ruined my life,’ ... then he proceeded to stab individuals and assault individuals,� Fulton said.

The center says it provides care and support for people and communities dealing with behavioral, mental health, substance abuse and developmental issues.

Russia, rebels Charles visits Bahrain amid turmoil trade chemical use allegations

BY JON GAMBRELL Associated Press

BY VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV Associated Press

MOSCOW — The Russian military and a main Syrian opposition group traded allegations Friday about whether new evidence indicates that either rebels or Syrian military used chemical weapons in the northern area of Aleppo where government forces are trying to regain control of areas they recently lost to insurgents.

Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said that ministry experts have found unexploded ordnance and fragments of munitions containing chlorine and white phosphorus on Aleppo’s southwestern outskirts.

Konashenkov said the discovery proves the militants have used chemical weapons against civilians and Syrian army soldiers.

The Syrian National Coalition, a main opposition group, however denied that rebels used chemical weapons in Aleppo saying that the shells that were

fired are similar to those used by government forces and militias fighting with them. The SNC called on U.N. organizations to open an investigation into the case.

Russia, meanwhile, is asking the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to send its experts to the site, Konashenkov said, adding that munitions fragments and ground samples collected at the site will be handed over to the international chemical weapons watchdog.

The U.S. and its allies have pushed for sanctions on the Syrian government for using chemical weapons. Russia has questioned international investigators’ conclusions linking chemical weapons use to the Syrian government and pointed at evidence of their use by the militants.

The U.N. Security Council has voted to extend the mandate of inspectors working to determine those responsible for chemical weapons attacks in Syria.

MANAMA, Bahrain — As a commemoration for British dead from World War I attended by Britain’s Prince Charles reached its end, the call to Friday prayer in Bahrain from nearby Shiite mosques began.

For a carefully scripted royal visit, it marked the first time Shiites not allied with Bahrain’s Sunni rulers reached the Prince of Wales’ ears.

Prince Charles and his wife Camilla’s threenation tour of the Gulf ended Friday in Bahrain, with the two waving goodbye from the door of their airplane. They left behind a Shiite-majority country in the grips of a crackdown on dissent, the like of which unseen since its 2011 Arab Spring protests.

“I don’t see what’s gone on behind closed doors or whether the prince raised any questions of human rights,” said Ebrahim Sharif, a leader in the secular Waad Party. “Bahrain’s government values its relations with the U.K. and if the U.K. puts its weight behind the improvement of human rights in Bahrain, the government will listen. They need friends.”

It’s not clear what

Associated Press

Britain’s Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, are escorted to their plane by Bahrain’s Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa on Friday in Manama, Bahrain. A leader in Bahrain’s secular opposition said he feared the visit

by Prince Charles could “whitewash” a crackdown on dissent in the tiny island nation.

Prince Charles told Bahrain’s king, whom he briefly met, nor the crown prince, who attended many of his events smiling brightly for the gathered cameras of the British press.

Bahrain’s monarchy has a long love of the British royal family.

The British Foreign Office, while saying it holds “frank” discussions with Bahrain, declined to discuss the prince’s own comments. On Friday,

the prince’s Clarence House issued a statement saying “their royal highnesses are aware of the points raised by human rights organizations and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office are providing background briefings and information.”

That wasn’t much information for Sharif, who at times has been imprisoned in the tiny island nation. He told The Associated Press that he

worried the prince’s visit could “whitewash” the human rights situation in the small country off the coast of the Arabian Peninsula.

Bahrain put down its Arab Spring protests with the help of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The protests were backed by the Shiite majority and others, and were aimed at demanding more political freedoms from the ruling Al Khalifa family.

Far-right nationalists march in Poland UN: South Sudan war risks genocide

BY VANESSA GERA Associated Press

WARSAW, Poland — Tens of thousands of far-right nationalists, burning flares and carrying Polish flags, marched peacefully through the streets of Warsaw on Friday to mark Poland’s Independence Day. In a yearly ritual that has become one of the largest far-right gatherings in Europe, they marched under the slogan “Poland the Bastion of Europe.”

The nationalists are strongly opposed to accepting refugees from the Middle East. Some of them carried banners depicting a falanga, which is a far-right symbol dating to the 1930s of a stylized hand with a sword.

The Interior Ministry estimated that 75,000 people joined the march, while Warsaw town hall estimated the number at 60,000. It proceeded peacefully, in contrast to violence of several marches in the past.

One huge banner read “God, Honor, Fatherland,” a patriotic slogan.

Others read: “Death to the enemies of the fatherland” and “To be a Pole, to be a Catholic is a privilege and honor.”

Some participants burned a Ukrainian flag at the march, which comes amid increased

Nationalists burn flares as they march in large numbers through the streets of Warsaw to mark Poland’s Independence Day Friday in Warsaw, Poland. strains between Poland and Ukraine because of renewed discussions of a wartime massacre of Poles by Ukrainians.

The main organizers were the National Radical Camp and the AllPolish Youth, groups which take their names from radical nationalistic groups of the 1930s that pushed a virulently antiSemitic ideology.

“This movement promotes the exclusion of all minorities and of everyone who isn’t Polish enough,” said Rafal Pankowski, the head of Never Again, an organization that monitors and fights

racism and extremism.

“This year and last year, the anti-Muslim message has been emphasized and it is an extreme and violent message.”

Pankowski said skinheads and other extremists held their first, small march on Independence Day in 2009 and that the yearly event has grown in number each year. It now draws extremists from Hungary, Germany, Sweden and the U.K., becoming what Pankowski believes is the largest such far-right gathering in Europe.

sad,” Pankowski said.

Other groups held their own events in an effort to reclaim the day from the right-wing radicals, including one organized by the Committee for the Defense of Democracy, an organization founded last year to fight the centralization of power by Poland’s rightwing government, and joined by political opposition leaders.

“The Nov. 11 holiday is our holiday and nobody will take it away from us.

We will not allow it,” said Grzegorz Schetyna, leader of the Civic Platform party.

JUBA, South Sudan — South Sudan’s festering civil war risks spiraling into genocide, according to the U.N.’s Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide, who cited recent examples of ethnically targeted rape, civilians being killed with machetes, and villages being burned to the ground.

Adama Dieng warned Friday of a “strong risk of violence escalating along ethnic lines with the potential for genocide,” speaking at a press conference in Juba after visiting South Sudan for five days.

Dieng said South Sudan is awash with weapons, has an undisciplined military, and is in a humanitarian and economic crisis in which civilians are desperate for employment.

“Genocide is a process,” said Dieng, adding that all the elements are present for a disaster.

The accusation that South Sudan is at risk of genocide is “very unfortunate,” Minister of Information Michael Makuei told The Associated Press.

“I don’t agree with him.

It is a negative report and it won’t be of any help.

Here in South Sudan

what is happening has nothing to do with genocide,” he said.

South Sudan is the world’s newest country and there were high hopes that it would have peace and stability after its split from neighboring Sudan in 2011. But the country plunged into ethnic violence in 2013 when forces loyal to President Salva Kiir, a Dinka, started battling those loyal to his former vice president Riek Machar, a Nuer.

A peace deal signed in August has not stopped the fighting. Kiir said in a recent speech that the army was mostly comprised of his Dinka tribe because other ethnic groups are part of the rebels.

To stop South Sudan’s slide into ethnically based violence, Dieng proposed a strategy of reconciliation and dialogue to build trust in the East African nation.

But even as Dieng, the U.N. expert on genocide, spoke, a radio station was shut down by South Sudan’s National Security Service.

Eye Radio is one of South Sudan’s largest national radio stations and known for its reggae music and messages of unity and peace.

Turkey detains media executive

BY CINAR KIPER Associated Press

ISTANBUL — Turkish authorities on Friday detained the chairman of the left-leaning and prosecular opposition newspaper Cumhuriyet on Friday, a week after several senior staff members were arrested for allegedly supporting terrorist organizations.

Police detained Akin Atalay when his flight from Berlin arrived at Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport, the state-run Anadolu agency reported.

Atalay had a standing detention order issued along with other senior staff for allegedly supporting Kurdish militants as well as a movement led

by Fethullah Gulen, the U.S.-based Muslim cleric whom Turkey accuses of

masterminding the failed coup in July.

Atalay’s wife, who was with her husband on the flight, told reporters at the airport that his arrest appeared to be a move that would pave the way for the appointment of a government trustee to oversee the newspaper.

“This isn’t an action taken against the individuals. We think this action was taken so a trustee can be appointed to Cumhuriyet,” Adalet Atalay said.

Cumhuriyet lawyer Bahri Belen said they were likely going to put Akin Atalay formally under arrest like his colleagues.

“We have been saying since the beginning that what was done against Cumhuriyet is a political operation, not a legal one.

There is no legal basis be-

hind the reasons given for our friends under arrest,” he added.

Turkey has come under intense criticism from opposition groups and its allies over its crackdown on dissenting voices during the state of emergency declared after the coup. Critics note that the purge, initially meant to eliminate the Gulen network, has since extended to other opponents of the government including pro-Kurdish and leftwing individuals.

Close to 37,000 people have been arrested, more than 100,000 people dismissed or suspended from government jobs, and 170 media outlets and scores of businesses and associations have been shut down over alleged ties to terrorist organizations.

After some of the homeless recounted their diďŹƒcult lives, Francis praised the poor for holding fast to their dignity.

He asked his homeless guests to stay seated while he stood to pray that God “teach us to be in solidarity because we are brothers.�

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis asked homeless people during a moving ceremony Friday to pardon all the Christians who turn away from the poor instead of help them.

Francis stood silently in a Vatican auditorium with his head bowed as he let several homeless individuals place their hands on his shoulders or clutch his cassock.

Some 4,000 people from 22 countries who either are now homeless or who spent years living on streets filled the auditorium in one of Francis’ final events during the Catholic church’s Holy Year of Mercy. “I ask pardon,� the pope said, on behalf of Christians who, “faced

Schools report racist incidents after election

BY ERRIN HAINES WHACK AND JAY REEVES Associated Press

In the wake of Donald Trump’s election, reports of racist incidents are emerging from the nation’s schools and universities, including students who chanted “white power” and called black classmates “cotton pickers.”

Reporting by The As-

sociated Press and local media outlets has identified more than 20 such encounters beginning on Election Day, many involving people too young to cast a ballot.

At the University of New Mexico, a Muslim engineering student said a man attempted to snatch off her hijab Tuesday while she was studying.

“I turned around and there’s a really buff guy wearing a Trump shirt,” freshman Leena Aggad said Friday. “He reaches his hand out to my forehead and attempts to pull my scarf off.”

Oren Segal, director of the Anti-Defamation League office that monitors extremism, said young people “were watching and observing

this presidential campaign as closely as anyone else.” Now that the campaign is over, “the impact of what they have seen is not just going to go away.”

On Wednesday, minority students at a high school in Gurnee, Illinois, organized a meeting and protest after a “whites only” message was found scrawled on a bathroom door. The same day in

Michigan, students at Royal Oak Middle school were filmed chanting “build a wall” in the cafeteria.

At Trump’s alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania, black freshmen were added to a group chat in which one post read “daily lynching,” and one participant was called a “dumb slave.”

The Penn president said

the chat appeared to be based in Oklahoma and that university police were trying to locate the exact source.

Also in Pennsylvania, two students at the York County School of Technology held a Donald Trump sign in a hallway as someone shouted “white power,” an incident captured on video and widely shared on Facebook.

Ceremony honors Tuskegee Airmen Death row inmate

won’t try to save life

BY CAROLYN THOMPSON Associated Press

GENESEO, N.Y. — With teary eyes shaded by a World War II veterans cap, Wallace Higgins accepted the Congressional Gold Medal on Friday for his service more than 70 years ago in the Tuskegee Airmen, the Army Air program that trained African-Americans to fly and maintain combat aircraft during the war.

He was followed on the stage at the National Warplane Museum by Herbert Thorpe, who earned B-25 pilot’s wings in 1945 and was one of the military’s first black pilots. Thorpe accepted his own medal and another on behalf of his late brother, Richard Thorpe, who completed fighter pilot training but died in a crash in Italy in 1945.

“I don’t cry easy, but I do today,” Higgins said inside the museum’s hangar against a backdrop of historic military planes. The Veterans Day ceremony fell on his 91st birthday.

“I didn’t know about segregation growing up,” he said, describing a childhood in upstate

BY KATE BRUMBACK Associated Press

Associated Press

World War II veteran Wallace Higgins, 91, a recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal, appears at the National Warplane Museum Friday in Geneseo, N.Y. New York. “Even when I went into service, I couldn’t quite believe — Squadron F? — until I was sort of led over there.

I learned fast.”

The Tuskegee Airmen refers to pilots, bombardiers, maintenance and other support staff who trained as a segregated unit at an air base in Tuskegee, Alabama.

Higgins completed pri-

mary flight training but saw his flying career end with the war’s wind down.

Relatives of two other Tuskegee Airmen accepted medals on their behalf from congressman Chris Collins during Friday’s ceremony, which was attended by about 200 people. Flight Officer Leland Pennington, a member of the 301st fighter squadron,

died while returning to base after a 1945 bomber escort mission in Austria.

Robert Johnson also was killed in action in 1944.

“These brave men undoubtedly laid the foundation for change so future generations can serve in our armed service no matter their race or ethnicity,” said Collins, whose late father was a World War II veteran.

ATLANTA — A Georgia death row inmate whose scheduled execution is fast approaching has consistently refused to help efforts to spare his life but has seemed to waffle over the years about whether he actually wants to die, his lawyer said.

Steven Frederick Spears, 54, is set to be put to death Wednesday. He was convicted of murder in the August 2001 slaying of his ex-girlfriend Sherri Holland at her home in Dahlonega, about 65 miles northeast of Atlanta.

Spears’ trial attorney Allyn Stockton described his client as a complex and intelligent man with a dark sense of humor who is wary of trusting people.

Stockton told The Associated Press in a phone interview that they’ve had a decent relationship over the years, but that Spears has rejected his efforts to communicate in the last year.

Death sentences in Georgia are subject to an

automatic direct appeal.

Typically, if the sentence is upheld during that process, cases wind their way through post-conviction appeals proceedings in state and federal courts.

Authorities in Georgia generally don’t set an execution date until those appeals have run out, but Spears has taken the unusual step of declining to initiate post-conviction proceedings.

Stockton learned earlier this year that an execution date was likely to be set and began writing to Spears. Those letters have gone unanswered.

Spears has also refused to see him, most recently on Monday, when he’s visited the central Georgia prison that houses death row.

When asked if his client wants to die, Stockton said, “It appears he’s got in his mind that he’s willing to be executed.”

Over the years, though, Spears has exhibited a pattern of hopelessness alternating with a desire to live and make the best of his situation, Stockton said.

Parents sue prosecutor Obama expects to discuss Trump on trip to stop sexting charges Associated Press

BY DAVID PITT Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa — The parents of a 14-yearold Iowa girl are suing a prosecutor to stop him from charging their daughter with sexual exploitation of a minor or child pornography for sending suggestive photos of herself to a boy.

The lawsuit filed in federal court asks a judge to issue an injunction preventing Marion County Attorney Ed Bull from filing criminal charges against the girl who sent two photos to a boy in her school last spring via Snapchat. The boy apparently shared them with other students and they were discovered among many others during a sexting investigation at Knoxville High School, which has about 600 students.

The lawsuit was filed in September and amended Thursday to add new arguments and to add the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa as attorneys for the girl, who is

identified only as Nancy Doe. In one photo, the girl is wearing underwear and no bra, but her hair covers her breasts, according to Rita Bettis, ACLU of Iowa legal director. In the other, she’s wearing underwear and a sports bra.

Bettis said the photos are not obscene and are not illegal under Iowa law.

Bull, however, alleges in court documents that the photos do constitute nudity as defined in an Iowa code section when such photos are sent “for the purpose of arousing or satisfying the sexual desires of a person who may view a visual depiction of the nude minor.”

He asks the federal court to dismiss the case and not to intervene in a state prosecution.

Bull told the girl’s family she could avoid charges if she agreed to admit guilt, take classes regarding sexting, relinquish her cellphone for the summer and complete 50 hours of community service.

“Where Clients Come First”

Celebrating 10 Years of Service

WASHINGTON — White House officials say President Barack Obama is prepared to spend his final major foreign trip talking about Donald Trump.

Obama leaves Monday for a six-day trip to Greece, Germany and Peru. In Greece, he’ll tour the Parthenon, give a speech about globalization and meet with Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.

The White House says the stop in Greece is Obama’s final state visit before leaving office.

Obama in Germany will meet and have dinner with Chancellor Angela Merkel, and also meet with a group of European leaders that includes British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Francois Hollande.

He’ll attend an Asia economic summit in Peru, and while in Lima will also meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Australian Prime Minster Malcolm Turnbull.

The trip was imagined as a goodbye tour and a chance to bolster support for Obama’s agreements on Iran’s nuclear pro-

But deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes says Obama expects to face questions about how Trump’s election affects those deals.

In the case of trade, White House officials acknowledged on Friday that it was now up to Trump and Republican congressional leaders to determine the future of

the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

Although many Republicans support free trade, Trump spent months blasting the 12-nation agreement, and both Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan have indicated it won’t come to a vote before Obama leaves office.

On Friday, Rhodes could not describe a path

ahead for the deal.

“We’re clear-eyed about the current situation,” Rhodes said. “But we believe what we believe about the value of trade and the importance of the Asia-Pacific region to the United States. And I think, given its size and importance, it’s going to have to continue to be a focus for the next president and Congress going forward no matter what.”

State, was on the Arkansas Humanities Council committee that conceptualized the exhibit.

“This is an important exhibit because it demonstrates Arkansas’ connection to the national civil rights movement,” Jones Branch said. “Arkansans engaged in activism to access full citizenship in their own communities.

What is especially poignant about this exhibit is that it highlights the activism that occurred in the state’s rural communities and resulted from the brave efforts of local African Americans and their allies.”

The exhibit will be on display through Friday.

Arrest made in killing at liquor store

NORTH LITTLE ROCK — North Little Rock police say a suspect has been arrested in the August shooting death of a liquor store worker during a robbery.

Officer Carmen Helton said in a news release that the suspect was arrested Friday morning and is jailed without bond pending arraignment on Tuesday.

Helton says the suspect was wanted in the shooting death of 65-year-old Dilipkumar Patel. Police say Patel died in September after being shot Aug. 26 at Best Shot Liquor.

Police said another employee who was also shot during the robbery was treated and released at a hospital.

UA eyes plans for new residence halls

FAYETTEVILLE — The University of Arkansas at Fayetteville is considering plans to spend $77 million to build two new residence halls on campus to accommodate a rise in enrollment.

Officials say there’s a capacity of 5,732 beds on campus. This fall, the university had just under 5,000 enrolled freshmen, and Chancellor Joe Steinmetz says that makes it difficult for upperclassmen to live on campus.

The chancellor told university trustees Thursday that the two proposed residence halls would add 500 beds to campus. The Arkansas DemocratGazette reports the new residence halls would be built on Stadium Drive and would primarily house first- and second-year students.

Steinmetz says the residence halls could be completed by fall 2019 if trustees approve a bond issue next year.

Dems secure majority on House tax panel

LITTLE ROCK — Democrats will have a majority of seats on an Arkansas House panel that will take up any proposals to cut taxes next year, despite the party’s ranks thinning in the majorityRepublican Legislature.

Democrats on Thursday secured 11 of the 20 seats on the House Revenue and Taxation Committee as representatives caucused and selected committees ahead of next year’s legislative session. The meeting came two days after Republicans expanded their majorities in the House and Senate.

The panel will be key during next year’s session, with Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson proposing a $50 million income tax cut that would take effect in the fiscal year that begins July 2018. Other Republicans are expected to push for deeper cuts during next year’s session.

BY ANDREW DEMILLO Associated Press

LITTLE ROCK — Voters have made Arkansas the first Bible Belt state to legalize medical marijuana, but it will be several months or longer before patients suffering from a host of ailments will be able to buy the drug.

Despite vigorously opposing the measure, Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson said he won’t stand in the way of the medical marijuana program approved Tuesday and asked lawmakers to set aside $3 million for its launch. He also asked state agencies to begin working on the rules needed to set up the program, though other opponents have said they’ll push for legislation next year that they hope will limit the program.

There’s plenty of work remaining for the state before the drug can be bought or sold legally.

Here’s where things stand:

When will it be available?

Don’t expect to be able to buy medical mari-

juana immediately. The state agencies that will enforce the amendment — the Department of Health, Arkansas Beverage Control Division and the newly formed Medical Marijuana Commission — have about four months to adopt the rules for how the program will work.

Where will it be sold?

Medical marijuana can only be sold by statelicensed dispensaries.

Hutchinson and the leaders of the state House and state Senate have about a month to make appointments to the Medical Marijuana Commission, a five-member panel that will issue dispensary licenses. The commission faces a June 2017 deadline to begin accepting applications for dispensary licenses. The amendment allows between 20 and 40 dispensaries, but no more than four dispensaries can be located in one county. It allows between four and eight licensed cultivation facilities, which will grow and sup-

ply marijuana for dispensaries. The amendment allows cities and counties to hold special elections initiated by voters to ban dispensaries and cultivation facilities.

Who can sell it?

Right now, no one can until the state licenses dispensaries. The state isn’t accepting license applications yet. The commission first has to adopt rules for how it will consider applications for licenses and renewals, and it also has to set fees for dispensary applications.

The maximum fee allowed under the amendment for an application is $7,500. Dispensary owners and employees must be at least 21 years old and cannot have been convicted of a violent felony under the amendment, which details other restrictions.

Who can buy it?

When the program is set up, patients who have written certification from a doctor that they have a qualifying medical condi-

tion can apply for a stateissued registry card that will allow them to buy marijuana from dispensaries. The state Department of Health is working on the rules for the registry and is not yet accepting applications. The department will also have to set application and renewal fees for qualified patients. The proposal lists 12 conditions that would qualify, including cancer, Crohn’s disease and post-traumatic stress disorder, along with chronic or debilitating diseases that produce symptoms such as seizures or severe nausea. It would also allow the Department of Health to add other qualifying medical conditions.

Qualifying patients must be at least 18 years old, although patients under 18 are eligible if they have a qualifying condition and a parent or guardian’s written consent. The parent or guardian would also have to agree in writing to be a designated caregiver and control the acquisition, dosage and frequency of medical marijuana for the child.

Education board OKs charter school plans Associated Press

LITTLE ROCK — The Arkansas Board of Education has accepted a state panel’s approval of a new adult education charter school in Little Rock and a new Haas Hall Academy campus in downtown Rogers.

The board on Thursday also finalized the state Charter Authorizing Panel’s approval of a 400-student increase for the Arkansas Arts Academy in Rogers. It also approved the relocation of the KIPP Delta Elementary School

to a former Helena-West Helena School District building.

The plans were initially reviewed and approved in October by the Arkansas Department of Education.

Education Board Chairman Mireya Reith said she had received emails concerning the increased traffic and parking availability at the proposed Haas Hall location. Haas Hall Academy attorney Mark Henry told board members that any successful high school will have parking issues.

“We’ll work with whomever to make it work,” Henry said. “Is it a crisis?

Absolutely not.”

The board also voted for the Excel Center, which is a charter school in Little Rock that will offer up to 125 adult students, ages 19 and older, the opportunity to receive a high school diploma. The school is planned to open in the 2017-2018 school year and will offer flexible class schedules, free child care and transportation assistance.

The KIPP Delta Pub-

lic Schools’ move to the former Beech Crest Elementary School building will allow the charter system to reconfigure its downtown campus, also starting in the 2017-2018 school year.

The student enrollment cap increase at the Arkansas Arts Academy will be phased in at the high school grades, and the higher population will enable the charter school to hopefully expand course offerings and start construction of a new high school building.

Wildfire blamed on selfie star

BY JEFF MARTIN AND REBECCA REYNOLDS YONKER Associated Press

ATLANTA — A wannabe weatherman was jailed for arson after admitting he started a wildfire to draw attention to his selfie videos on Facebook, his town’s police chief said Friday. Meanwhile, a Georgia sheriff appealed for help identifying the driver of a dark blue SUV last seen where other wildfires began. And in North Carolina, authorities suspect arson in more than 20 wildfires burning in a national forest.

“It’s really too bad because he’s not a bad kid — he’s just misguided,” said James Stephens, the police chief in Jenkins, Kentucky, where Johnny Mullins, 21, was arrested this week on a seconddegree arson charge.

“He likes to do Facebook videos and have people follow him on his ‘weather forecast,’ so that’s pretty much why he did what he did,” the chief said. “He enjoyed the attention he got from the Facebook stuff.”

“He didn’t realize how much danger he was putting other people in,” Stephens added.

A teenager in Harlan County, Kentucky also was arrested for arson this week, and in Tennessee, authorities said Friday that Andrew Scott Lewis was charged with setting fires and vandalism causing more than $250,000 in damage and

Associated Press

People take photos Thursday of a wildfire burning near Lake Lure, N.C. threatening homes outside Chattanooga.

No arrests were announced in most of the rest of the suspicious fires, which have been torching forests in and around the southern Appalachian mountains. The relentless drought across much of the South has removed the usual humidity and sucked wells and streams dry, making the woods ripe for fire.

Tens of thousands of acres have burned, about a dozen of the largest fires remain uncontained and many people to evacuate their homes ahead of fastmoving flames.

Law officers in Georgia’s Rabun County suspect that someone started a series of small roadside fires

Wednesday that eventually merged into the much larger blazes firefighters were working to contain on Friday, said Justin Upchurch, the county’s assistant fire chief.

The Rabun County sheriff’s office urged people to be on the look-out, saying the SUV was last seen in the area of the fires. The office was more emphatic in a separate Facebook post, asking residents to spread the word “and help us lock this criminal up!!!”

The area is less than 50 miles from North Carolina’s Nantahala National Forest, where more than 20 wildfires that have burned more than 17,000 acres are all “being investigated for suspected

arson,” forestry officials announced in a status update.

There were 14 other wildfires burning on Cherokee Nation land in North Carolina, all under investigation by local law enforcement. A fire managers’ update noted that the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs is seeking information about fires on Indian lands through an arson hotline.

The U.S. Forest Service announced Friday that the entire Cohutta Wilderness, which stretches across the Chattahoochee National Forest in Georgia and the Cherokee National Forest in Tennessee, has been closed to the public due to multiple fires there.

Silent fans remember victims of Paris attacks the match. “You have to try and move forward, look ahead. Even though these events will probably stay in our memories for life.”

However, it wasn’t quite a perfect silence.

A few random voices — among 80,000 fans — shouted out sporadically, but it was otherwise impeccably observed.

Moments before the silence, France’s national anthem, “La Marseillaise,” was played as usual.

But this time something different happened.

Fans were already singing heartily when the accompanying music suddenly stopped halfway through, and the noise levels went up considerably as only the sound of supporters singing could be heard echoing around the stadium.

Security measures were the same Friday as they have been since the attacks, with spectators patted down and their bags searched twice — once near to the stadium and the second time close to the entry gates.

But the atmosphere was calm and relaxed. Several international rugby and soccer matches have been played at this stadium since then, including the European Championship final in July.

Players from the French and Swedish national teams stood facing each other either side of the halfway line, many with their heads bowed as they solemnly remembered the victims.

PARIS — Players linked arms as fans stood to observe a minute’s silence at Stade de France one year after the Paris attacks.

Friday’s poignant silence before the World Cup qualifier between France and Sweden remembered victims of the attacks on Nov. 13 last year, which saw 130 people killed and hundreds more injured.

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attacks.

The night of terror began when three suicide bombers blew themselves up outside the Stade de France, where France was playing Germany in a friendly match. One passerby was killed.

TOKYO — Japan signed a pact Friday in which it agreed to sell India civil nuclear power equipment and technology, as the Japanese nuclear industry seeks markets overseas because of shrinking business at home since the 2011 Fukushima disaster.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his Indian counterpart, Narendra Modi, also agreed during talks to advance business and security cooperation.

The nuclear pact, though limited to peaceful commercial use, is controversial because India has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. It has raised concerns in Japan about a risk of the country’s technology being diverted to India’s nuclear weapons

program.

The pact allows India to reprocess fuel and enrich uranium, though highly enriched uranium that can be used to make nuclear weapons is not permitted without written agreement by Japan.

The two leaders insisted the agreement will contribute to peaceful use of clean energy, and Japanese officials said Tokyo will scrap the deal if India conducts a nuclear test.

“This agreement sets a legal framework to assure that India acts responsibly for the peaceful uses of nuclear energy,” Abe said, adding that it gets India to effectively participate in the non-proliferation treaty framework. “It is also in line with Japan’s position to promote nonproliferation to create a world without nuclear weapons.”

IMF OKs $12 billion for Egypt’s economy

CAIRO — The International Monetary Fund said on Friday that its executive board has approved a three-year bailout totaling $12 billion to Egypt, to support the country’s ailing economy — a move intended to restore investor confidence and raise the country’s foreign reserves. Even with the loan, economic challenges remain ahead.

The approval comes almost a week after the Egyptian government floated its currency and raised fuel prices in order to qualify for the loan.

These painful measures earned praise from the IMF and the international business community, but caused price hikes for an already frustrated cashstrapped population, with

President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi now risking a serious political backlash.

The IMF made the announcement on Friday and said the loan aims to help Egypt “restore macroeconomic stability and promote inclusive growth.” It added that Egypt will receive a first installment of $2.75 billion immediately.

Days earlier, Christine Lagarde, the IMF chief, described Egypt’s reform program as “ambitious” and said it will put the country on a “sustainable path and achieve job-rich growth.”

Tarek Amer, the head of Egypt’s Central Bank, was quoted by the staterun MENA news agency as saying that the first installment has arrived at the bank and increased foreign reserves to $23.5 billion.

Red Wolves keep opponents guessing

BY MATTHEW V. ROBERSON Sun staff writer mroberson@jonesborosun.com

JONESBORO — Arkansas State doesn’t have an identity problem. It just seems to change from week to week.

Since beginning Sun Belt Conference play, Arkansas State has found four different ways to win four different games, and erase a dreadful start to the season. The Red Wolves look to continue their recent rise back to respectability when they host New Mexico State for Senior Day this afternoon.

ASU quarterback Justice Hansen said it’s not important how the Red Wolves win. It is important that they just keep winning.

“Each week, each part of the team, whether it’s offense, defense or special teams, wants to win the game,” Hansen said.

“It’s worked out the last few weeks where different phases have put the bulk of the work on their shoulders. We’re not really worried about an identity. We’ve been able to win four in a row, and our main focus is to come out each week with a win.”

Kickoff for today’s home finale is 2 p.m. The game will be broadcast on KFIN (FM-107.9) and ESPN3. com.

Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson is in his third year over the program.

When he was hired, Anderson promised a hurry-up, no-huddle football team that would be explosive if not somewhat similar to “basketball on grass.” While that identity was a vital part of his first two teams, the 2016 Red Wolves have strayed from the path.

Arkansas State’s Justice Hansen looks for a receiver during the Red Wolves’ 31-16 victory last week at Georgia State. The Red Wolves play their final home game of the season today against New Mexico State.

They’re still winning, but they’re finding different ways to do it.

For Anderson, he’s willing to shelve his personal preference of play for what

works best.

“We have not played with tremendous tempo.

We’ve done what we’ve got to do to win,” Anderson said. “Our offense has

Dumas pounds Trumann in playoff opener A-State

rally falls short in opener

BY SEAN SAUNDERS Special to The Sun

TRUMANN — Every time Trumann got back into the game with a special-teams miscue, Dumas flexed its muscle up front.

Jaquis Fisher and Jalen Cobbs each rushed for more than 100 yards and a touchdown, and Justin Tatum scored both on the ground and through the air, leading the Bobcats to their first playoff victory since 2010 with a 30-15 Class 4A opening-round triumph Friday night at Wildcat Stadium.

“We’ve got a tough group,” said Dumas coach Max Pennington, earning his first postseason win in his second season in Desha County. “This group is dedicated. They’ve sold out in the weight room, they sold out in the offseason and they said this was going to be the group in 2016 that was going to get us back in the playoffs and make a surge in the playoffs.”

Dumas (8-3) travels to 4A-4 top seed Dardanelle in the second round. Trumann finishes the season 7-4.

Dumas set the tone on the opening drive, taking it 75 yards on nine plays, all on the ground. Fisher had carries of 36 and 14 yards, and Tatum capped

“We knew going in that they would be big and athletic,” Trumann coach Scott Waymire said. “We knew we would have to

play really well in the first half, and we kept putting the ball on the ground.

We weren’t turning it over, but we put ourselves in some bad situations.”

Special teams helped Trumann get back into the game, Dumas snapping the ball over its

punter’s head for a safety to pull the Wildcats within 6-2 with 2:47 to play in the first quarter.

Cade Gartman then took the ensuing free kick 38 yards to the Bobcat 15-yard line. Quarterback Garrett Woods capped the short drive

with a 1-yard sneak, and the Wildcats led 9-6 at the 1:06 mark of the first quarter.

POCAHONTAS — Gravette picked a great night to put together one of its best games of the year Friday in the first round of the Class 4A state playoffs.

The Lions intercepted four passes and controlled the line of scrimmage all night long as Gravette defeated Pocahontas 37-27, eliminating the Redskins from the postseason.

Gravette (7-4) jumped out to a 27-7 lead in the first half and led 27-14 going into the third quarter.

Pocahontas (8-3) got

a 1-yard touchdown run from Travis Whiley and a 41-yard touchdown pass from Haston Orewiler to Jaden Young in the third cutting the Gravette lead to 27-21 with 4:45 left in the quarter.

Gravette had a great response as the Lions put together a 10-play, 71yard drive that found the end zone when quarterback Kilby Roberts tossed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Brady Moorman.

With an extra point from Chris Childress, Gravette increased its lead to 34-21 with only 32.7 seconds remaining in the third quarter.

The Lions took advantage of an interception by Austin O’brien who took the ball off the fingertips of a Pocahontas receiver to set up a 31-yard field goal from Childress, giving Gravette a commanding 37-21 advantage with 6:39 left in the game.

Pocahontas cut into the lead with a 4-yard touchdown run from Whiley with 4:54 remaining in the fourth quarter, but the two-point try was unsuccessful leaving Gravette with a 37-27 lead.

The Lions were able to run out the final few minutes of the clock, keeping the ball away from Poca-

hontas just as they had done all night.

O’brien had a great game for the Lions rushing for 255 yards and three touchdowns, Roberts added 88 yards rushing and 66 yards passing and Brandon Ballard had three interceptions.

For the game Gravette rushed for 344 yards on 50 carries.

Gravette coach Bill Harrellson loved the way his team played on the road.

FARGO, N.D. — Arkansas State rallied to within five points late in the second half, but North Dakota State came away with a 76-66 victory over the Red Wolves in the season opener for both teams Friday night.

North Dakota State (10) converted 29-of-42 at the free-throw line while A-State (0-1) was 11-of-15 on the night. The second half featured the Bison going 18-of-28 at the line while the Red Wolves were 4-of-6.

A-State (0-1) held North Dakota State to 1-for-11 from 3-point range, but the Bison outscored AState in the paint 40-32.

The Red Wolves shot 44 percent (25-57) from the field and 5-of-16 from beyond the arc.

A-State was led by senior Devin Carter, who finished with 15 points while seven other players had five or more points.

Senior Donte Thomas had 10 assists, one more than NDSU had on the game, and joined junior Rashad Lindsey with a team-high six rebounds.

ASU beats UALR to clinch top seed LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas State clinched the top seed in the Sun Belt Conference volleyball tournament with a 2520, 23-25, 25-11, 25-21 victory over ArkansasLittle Rock Friday afternoon.

The West Division champion Red Wolves finished Sun Belt play with a 15-1 mark. Coastal Carolina, the East Division champion, can also get to 15-1, but ASU holds the tiebreaker over the Chanticleers because of a 3-2 win in Conway, S.C., on Sept. 25.

Mallory Warrington handed out 50 assists to lead the Red Wolves and registered her team-best 14th double-double with a career-high 23 digs.

Kenzie Fields led the team with 15 kills, while Kelsey Reis (14) and Carlisa May (12) also recorded double-digit kills.

Markie Schaedig tied for the team lead in digs with 23 and Fields tallied four blocks defensively.

“I’m glad we finished the regular season on a high note and have accomplished one of our goals,” said ASU head coach David Rehr, whose team is 23-7 overall.

“However, we can’t celebrate this one too long because we have to get ready for the next portion of our season.”

The two teams battled to a 9-9 tie in set one, but A-State used a 6-1 run to create some distance.

The Red Wolves went in front 22-15. UALR (1217, 8-8 Sun Belt) got as close as 24-20, but a service error by the home team gave ASU the set.

A 3-0 ASU run, capped by a Fields kill, tie the second set at 21. The Trojans won four of the next six points to take game two.

ASU raced to a 12-3 advantage in set three. The Red Wolves extended the lead to 19-8 on a service ace by Lindsay Cline.

A 6-3 run, capped by a kill from Fields, clinched the set.

The fourth set began well for the Red Wolves as Jessica Heuertz gave ASU a 5-2 edge on a service ace. Drew Jones gave ASU a 12-5 lead and the Trojans used their final timeout. UALR battled back within two points on a couple of occasions, but a Shelby Holmes kill put ASU in front 22-16.

UALR clawed within three at 24-21, but another kill by Holmes ended the match.

The Red Wolves will play next Nov. 18 in the Sun Belt Conference tournament in Arlington, Texas. The bracket will be finalized Sunday.

2017 SBC tourney ASU will host the 2017 SBC volleyball tournament at the Convocation Center, the Sun Belt announced Friday.

ASU has hosted the Sun Belt Conference tournament six times, but it will be the first time since the 1996 season.

Jonesboro was home to the SBC tournament for six consecutive years from 1991-96. A-State won four of the six events it hosted.

The dates for the 2017 SBC volleyball tournament will be announced at a later date.

Oklahoma State routs A-State in second half STILLWATER, Okla. — Friday’s second half started poorly and didn’t get any better for Arkansas State.

Down only seven points at halftime in their season opener, the Red Wolves watched the Cowgirls open the second half on a 19-0 run. Oklahoma State’s lead continued to grow until the end of a 7634 victory in women’s basketball at Gallagher-Iba Arena.

ASU, which has a new starting five and eight freshmen on its roster, struggled to handle Oklahoma State’s pressure defense during the deci-

sive third-quarter surge, turning the ball over seven times.

Oklahoma State (1-0) outscored Arkansas State 30-7 in the third quarter.

The Red Wolves were held scoreless for more than five minutes to start the second half.

Senior Dominique Oliver and freshman Starr Taylor led ASU with seven points apiece, while junior Akasha Westbrook scored six points and grabbed six rebounds.

Oliver also finished with five rebounds. “One of the benefits from last year’s team was that there wasn’t anything

that a team could throw at us that we hadn’t seen,�

ASU head coach Brian Boyer said. “Now with this year, nearly everything people throw at us we haven’t seen and that’s what happened. They threw a three-quarter trap at us and we took a timeout and we did OK with that as the game went along, but then they went to a zone in the second half and we just haven’t seen a lot of that yet and things just got out of hand from there.�

The Red Wolves turned in a solid defensive eort in the opening 20 minutes and forced the Cow-

girls into 15 turnovers, but struggles on the oensive end prevented ASU from pressuring Oklahoma State further.

ASU scored 10 points o turnovers in the first half, but also had a scoring drought of five-plus minutes in the second quarter that ended when Tahlon Hopkins knocked down a jumper as time ticked away in the period.

ASU trailed 26-19 at halftime.

Oklahoma State dominated Arkansas State on the boards in the first half, particularly on the oensive end, but the Red Wolves worked to

close the gap to a six-rebound dierential by the break. “The first half was really good. I thought our eort and intensity was flawless,â€? Boyer said. “We were the team that played harder and our eort was better, but we came out in the second half and we didn’t handle their shot in the second half. You know being on the road that they are going to make a run at you and we just handle it very well and things started unravel from there.â€?

ASU returns to action Wednesday at Austin Peay. Tipo is set for 7 p.m.

SBC STANDINGS |

Xavier Woodson-Luster, who will be among 23 seniors playing their final home game today, said winning in dierent ways has shown that ASU is talented in multiple areas.

Now it’s just a matter of playing well in each area at the same time. He believes the Red Wolves are progressing each week toward that happening.

Perhaps, it comes together today against New Mexico State (2-6, 1-3). “We haven’t played four quarters of football together as a team yet,�

Woodson-Luster said. “We haven’t played a complete game. We’re winning in dierent ways, but all in all, we just haven’t found that collective way to win.

It’s coming, though. We’re getting there.�

While Arkansas State is winning in dierent ways, its approach each week hasn’t changed.

Anderson said the Red Wolves break down each opponent specifically by strengths and weaknesses.

Then they game-plan ways they believe will exploit those weaknesses or play to their own strengths. “We know that turn-

overs and explosive plays are a huge factor and they’re always going to be,â€? Anderson said. “But, also, what is the game inside the game? ‌ To me it’s just guys (have) bought into listening to what we’re telling them.â€?

What’s unknown is the

identity Arkansas State may adopt for the Aggies.

New Mexico State is averaging over 400 yards and 23.8 points a game.

NMSU has actually passed the football more times (326) than it has run it (293).

puzzle. You’ve got to move your pride to the side, honestly, and just find a way to win.�

Since starting Sun Belt play, Arkansas State has been pretty good at finding ways to win.

The Red Wolves (4-4 overall, 4-0 SBC) have won four straight to even their overall record. A victory today would give them a winning record for the first time this season.

The unique thing about Arkansas State’s resurgence is how it’s been accomplished, though.

ASU bullied Georgia Southern on the ground for a season-high 343 rushing yards in a 27-26 victory. The Red Wolves followed with a strong defensive eort, holding South Alabama to 194 yards in a 17-7 victory.

A week later, Hansen passed for four touchdowns as ASU jumped on Louisiana-Monroe early and rolled to a 51-10 victory. Last week, two special teams touchdowns helped Arkansas State fight past Georgia State for a 31-16 win. “Each week has kind of

Wynne pulls away to beat Morrilton, 50-21

BY AUSTIN EMERSON Special to The Sun

WYNNE — In a meeting of two top-five teams in Class 5A, Wynne blasted Morrilton 50-21 Friday night to advance to the second round of the state playoffs after outscoring the Devil Dogs 36-7 in the second half.

Second-ranked Wynne (11-0) finished with 458 yards of offense compared with 323 for Morrilton, led by 136 yards and three touchdowns on the ground by junior quarterback Luke Chapman.

Ta’Von Hicks added 151 yards and one touchdown rushing.

“Luke does a great job

and has been doing it all year long running the offense and getting people in the right spot,” said Wynne head coach Chris Hill, whose team will host Little Rock McClellan next week.

“He made the right reads all night and had three touchdown runs.”

Fourth-ranked Morrilton, which made the playoffs despite four forfeits, finishes 5-6. Wynne took control by outscoring the Devil Dogs 21-0 in the third quarter to break a 14-14 tie.

Chapman scored the first of his two touchdowns in the third quarter on a 48-yard rush

up the middle on thirdand-6. Chapman’s other score came on Wynne’s next possession when he scored from 2 yards out on a quarterback keeper to put Wynne ahead by 13, 27-14, after the failed extra point.

“We came out the second half, held them to a three-and-out, and our offense scored,” Hill said.

“That was the turning point in the game.”

Wynne’s last touchdown of the third quarter came on Mason Burnett’s 5-yard rush to put the Yellowjackets ahead 35-14 after Chapman’s conversion rush with under a minute in the quarter.

“We’ve been doing it all year,” Hill said of Wynne’s rushing attack.

“I probably got too advanced in the first half and came back to what we do in the second half, but it was a great game.”

Wynne scored on its first offensive play when Devontai Pounds ran 47 yards up the sideline for the score with 11:36 remaining in the first quarter, but it was Morrilton leading 14-7 after two touchdown passes from Caleb Canady to Deiontae Duncan of 32 and 11 yards.

The Yellowjackets also got on the board first in the second quarter to tie the game 14-14 after

Hicks’ 41-yard touchdown on first down that featured several spin moves and a stop-and-go with 9:43 left in the first half.

The remainder of the second quarter featured a turnover on downs by Morrilton inside the Wynne 10, a punt from Wynne and a huge goal line stand for Wynne on fourth and goal from the 1 with 3.4 seconds on the clock. Lane Granberry got the carry for Morrilton but was met behind the line by a plethora of Yellowjackets.

Morrilton had 204 total yards to Wynne’s 188 in the first half. The Devil Dogs finished the first half with 159 through the

air and 45 on the ground, while Wynne accumulated 168 on the ground and just 20 through the air.

Allen Watson added a 13yard touchdown reception on fourth down in the back corner of the end zone with 9:09 left in the game to put Wynne ahead 43-14 after Burnett’s conversion.

For Morrilton, Canady connected with Duncan for their third score of the game, this time from 55 yards out to make the score 43-21 with eight minutes to go. Chapman added his third score of the game with 2:26 on the clock when he snuck in from a yard out to set the final score.

Hannahs scores 23 to lift Arkansas against IPFW

BY KURT VOIGT Associated Press

Confident Razorbacks eye 3rd straight win against LSU

BY KURT VOIGT Associated Press

FAYETTEVILLE — Brooks Ellis has seen a steady growth in his four seasons at Arkansas, from winless in the Southeastern Conference as a freshman in 2013 to an improvement in win total each year since.

The Razorbacks middle linebacker still has hope of continuing that streak this season, with Arkansas (63, 2-3 SEC) needing three more wins to top the eight it finished with a season ago.

Ellis played a role in helping the Razorbacks keep those hopes alive last week with a 31-10 win over previously No. 10-ranked Florida, and he expects to do the same when Arkansas hosts No. 19 LSU (5-3, 3-2) on Saturday.

If the senior is brimming with confidence against the now Ed Orgeron-led Tigers, it’s with good reason. The Razorbacks have won two straight over their rivals to the south, doing so in convincing fashion — outscoring LSU

by a total of 48-14 over that stretch.

“We’ve done it in the past, so we know we can do it again,” Ellis said.

The biggest factor in Arkansas’ recent two-year run of dominance against the Tigers has been its defense against the run.

In short, the Razorbacks have completely taken away LSU’s ability to do just that — holding the Tigers to only 95 yards rushing on 62 carries over the last two games. Even star LSU running back Leonard Fournette has struggled to produce a breakout game against Arkansas, though Orgeron expects a much different result today.

“I expect (Fournette) to

play well,” Orgeron said.

“I expect him to come back with a great attitude.

I expect him to shake it off and have a good game against Arkansas and finish strong.”

Arkansas is trying for its third straight win over the Tigers.

Bison take the lead. Tyson Ward hit 1-of-2 at the free throw line, giving the Bison a 45-44 advantage.

Bruce grabbed the board and guard Rashad Lindsey hit a jumper on the other end to make it 4645 A-State with 12:39 left.

The Bison answered with a jumper, but freshman Jahmiah Simmons fought for an offensive rebound and put back with a foul to give A-State the lead back.

After Simmons missed the free throw, North Dakota State went on a 19-0 run to hold a 66-48 advantage with 3:28 left.

The run spanned 6:45 and the Bison were 6-of7 from the field and 7-of10 at the foul line while A-State was 1-for-10 from the floor.

The Red Wolves faced an 18-point deficit with 3:28 left, but used a 14-1 run over the next 2:17.

Junior Andrew Riley sparked the rally with a 3-pointer and junior C.J. Foster followed with a jumper. The Bison split a pair of free throws and AState cashed in as Carter scored the next seven

points to make it 67-60 with 1:24 on the clock.

Thomas drove the lane for a layup with 1:11 on the clock, but a foul and two free throws stretched the Bison lead to 69-62 with 1:01 remaining.

Thomas drove to the rim on the next possession and was fouled, making both shots to make it a five-point deficit, 69-64, with 58 seconds left. Over the final minute, North Dakota State was 7-of-10 at the line to close out the 10-point margin.

A-State used a 13-0 run in the first half to grab an 18-8 lead. Simmons came off the bench and immediately made an impact as he drove the baseline and threw down a slam to aid the run.

The Bison took a timeout with A-State leading 18-8 and the Red Wolves later led 26-16, but North Dakota State closed the final seven-plus minutes of the first half on a 24-8 run to lead 40-34.

The home opener for ASU is Monday at 7 p.m. against Central Baptist College.

or four plays out of it, and he was able to really run those to perfection and give us some momentum going into half.”

Cobbs had 66 yards on the drive, finishing the half with 75 yards for the most of any back. Dumas limited the Wildcats to just 74 first-half yards.

After Dumas forced a three-and-out to start the second half, a pair of penalties backed the Bobcats inside the shadow of their own goalposts. But Tatum found a hole in Trumann’s zone blitz and took a short hitch 90 yards for a touchdown, Fuller adding the two-point run for a 22-9 advantage with 8:47 left in

the third quarter.

“Justin Tatum can play middle linebacker, receiver, quarterback, tailback,” Pennington said.

“We really need him on the defensive side of the ball. He’s our captain and leader at middle linebacker, but he’s got some juice.

He’s about a 4.4 (second) 40 (yard dash) guy, and he came up big on a little hitch play and just took it 90 yards.”

But just when it looked like Dumas was in the clear, another special-teams mishap occurred when a muffed punt was recovered by John Dunman. Gartman kept the chains moving with a 13yard reception, rushing for

Paul Miller.

“We had good momentum early and we played the way we wanted to play early, putting them on their heels,” first-year ASU head coach Grant McCasland said. “When we get that many guys in foul trouble, it got us in a bad place with who we wanted on the floor matchup-wise. They drove the ball, but we did a good job guarding them from the 3-point line. You have to give that team credit because you can tell they are a tough, competitive and mature team.”

After trailing 40-34 at the break, A-State used a 10-4 run in the first 4:37 of the second half to knot the score at 44. Junior forward Tamas Bruce, who finished with eight points, scored six points during the run with Thomas feeding him in the post.

The Red Wolves had three chances to take the lead, but a missed layup and two turnovers coupled with four fouls over the next 2:16 helped the

FAYETTEVILLE — Even with all the new faces on the court, it was old reliable Dusty Hannahs who helped Arkansas when it needed it the most.

Hannahs scored 23 points to lead six players in double figures as the re-tooled Razorbacks (10) opened their season with a 92-83 win over IPFW on Friday night.

The senior led Arkansas with an average of 16.5 points per game a year ago, but coach Mike Anderson added a trio of top junior college recruits in a push for immediate improvement following a disappointing 16-16 record last season.

Despite the new-look roster, it was Hannahs who once again took on a leading role when the Razorbacks fell behind by six points to the Mastodons (0-1) in the first half. He finished 7 of 17 from the field and 8 of 10 on free throws.

“That’s the way it’s supposed to be,” Anderson said. “... Those (older) guys have got to show these guys the way.”

Daryl Macon, one of Arkansas’ junior college newcomers, added 13 points while Anton Beard had 12. Preseason Southeastern Conference Player of the Year Moses Kingsley finished with nine points, nine rebounds and seven blocks despite being in foul trouble in the first half.

Watkins finished with 10 points each for the Razorbacks.

John Konchar led IPFW with 17 points, one of five in double figures.

Kason Harrell added 14 points, while Mo Evans and Bryson Scott had 13 each and Xzavier Taylor 12 for the Mastodons.

“We came here to win the game,” IPFW coach Jon Coffman said. “I’m obviously very disappointed.”

The Mastodons led by as many as six points in the first half, taking a 3630 lead after a 3-pointer

by Evans. The shot lifted IPFW to 6 of 10 on 3-pointers, but they were 0 for 8 from behind the arc after that to end the half.

Arkansas took advantage of the cold-shooting stretch, answering with an 18-4 run to go up 48-40 late in the half. Hannahs had a 3-pointer and Watkins added a basket on the break to cap the run.

“We got kind of stagnant at times, but we just

kept playing our game and got the pace back up to our liking,” Hannahs said. “I thought we were at our strength, obviously, when we were running and pushing the ball against them.”

Big picture

Despite earning the season-opening win over the preseason pick to win the Summit League, Arkansas exits the game with continued questions about its rebounding ability and defensive play. A year after finishing 247th in the country by allowing opponents to average 74.7 points per game, the Razorbacks were outrebouned 45-39 — allowing 21 offensive rebounds by IPFW and 21 second-chance points.

Junior college impact

Macon and Barford were the top two junior college recruits in the country last season, and they both paid immediate dividends on Friday night. In addition to his 13 points, Macon also had seven rebounds, five assist and four steals, while Barford added five rebounds and four assists.

Tip-ins

Kingsley scored seven of his points in the second half, helping the Razorbacks outscore the Mastodons 52-22 in the paint ... The senior’s seven blocks were one off his career of eight, which came against Tennessee Tech last season.

GRAVETTE CONTINUED FROM B1

cause I know Pocahontas has got a really fine ball club,” Harrellson said.

“We’re just excited to be going on and these kids, especially the seniors, gave it all tonight, and we had two or three of them playing hurt, and they just stayed in there and kept plugging away.”

Harrellson commended his team for its defensive effort against Pocahontas running back Barkley Sorg who finished with only 6 yards on seven carries.

“He’s a great back, and I’m sure he’s got a lot of college offers so that was a big deal to us to stop him. I know he’s hurt a little and that’s hampered him some. I’m sure but our guys were just tuned in on him all night because we knew we needed to stop him if we were going to have a chance,” he said. “But their quarterback kept completing passes, and we got him stopped, and it made it a lot easier on us.”

Harrellson also liked the effort he got from O’brien.

“He played both sides of the ball and played all but maybe a half a dozen plays and just did a great job of protecting the ball,” he said. “They threw away from him all night and tried to pick on

Brandon Ballard and had three interceptions so I am really proud of him.”

Gravette struck first in the opening quarter after an interception set the Lions up with good field position.

It took only two plays to go 39 yards as O’brien scored on a 16-yard run.

With a kick from Childress Gravette led 7-0 with 7:32 left in the first quarter.

Gravette’s Ballard intercepted a Redskin pass on the ensuing possession and returned it to the Pocahontas 27.

Three plays later the Lions went up 14-0 as O’brien went in from 10 yards out with 5:40 remaining in the first quarter.

Childress added the extra point for Gravette.

Pocahontas forced a turnover of its own late in the first period as Brady Durham recovered a fumble at the Gravette 13-yard line.

It took only one play for the Redskins to find the end zone when Travis Whiley scored on a 13yard run.

With an extra point from Durham, Pocahontas cut the Gravette lead to 14-7 with 1:57 to play in the opening quarter.

Gravette pushed its lead to 21-7 early in the second as quarterback Kilby Roberts scored on a

14-yard run.

Childress added the extra point for the Lions with 11:52 left in the second quarter.

The Lions extended the lead later in the second when O’brien dashed in up the middle from 8 yards out.

The extra point was missed as the Lions led 27-7 with 5:24 left in the second.

Pocahontas was able to put together a 16-play, 75-yard drive that ended with Whiley scoring on a fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line.

Durham added the extra point as the game went to the half with Gravette up 27-14.

Orewiler became the Redskins main offensive threat as Sorg was slowed by the Gravette defense and finished the game going 23-for-50 through the air with 296 yards, one touchdown and four interceptions.

Young had a good game catching the ball for Pocahontas, finishing with five catches for 129 yards with a touchdown while Derrick Kimble Jr. added nine catches for 80 yards.

On the ground, Whiley finished with 26 yards rushing and three touchdowns.

Gravette plays at Hamburg (8-3) next week in the second round.

DUMAS CONTINUED FROM B1

ing territory. The Bobcats then went into their Wildcat formation, and Cobbs ran all but two of an eightplay drive that marched 76 yards, ending with Cobbs’ 22-yard touchdown and DJ Fuller’s two-point run for a 14-9 lead with 47 seconds left.

“They got the safety and turned it in, and momentum was really going their way,” Pennington said. “Jalen Cobbs, he’s a senior. We were trying to find ways to get him the football this week in practice. So we adopted what we call the ‘Bobcat.’

We only have about three

the touchdown from 4 yards out to make it 22-15 with 4:32 remaining in the third.

“They did a great job,” Waymire said of his special teams. “They did a great job of getting down there and covering up a punt that one time and getting a big return. That was a phase where I thought we might be able to get them. Speed kills and size kills. They had both of them, and that’s a dangerous combination.”

Trumann got another fumble on the next Dumas drive, but a 15-play drive that spanned the third and fourth and reached the Bobcat 23 stalled on downs.

“It’s tough, and in certain situations, we’re the cause of things,” Waymire said. “Some of that is youth, and some of that is just not being in this spot.

These kids wanted to do something for the town of Trumann and maybe just putting more pressure on ourselves instead of just playing the game and executing.”

Both teams went threeand-out before Dumas put the game away with a nine-play, 71-yard drive that ate away nearly the rest of the clock.

Fisher capped the drive by breaking a 27-yard touchdown run, and Tatum added the two-point

run to make it 30-15 with 1:16 left.

Dumas outgained Trumann 382-167. Gartman was limited to 74 yards on 15 carries but had 185 all-purpose yards — two receptions for 48 yards and two kick returns for 63 yards.

“He caught big passes and played special teams well,” Waymire said. “He’s been a player for us since I’ve been here.

“I’m looking forward to next year. We lose five seniors, and we’ve got a good nucleus of juniors and sophomores coming up. They’ve built what we’ve been trying to establish, and it’s getting there.”

Investors bet on Trump spending

BY ALEX VEIGA Associated Press

It was perhaps the most surprising trade in a record-setting week on Wall Street: How quickly investors swapped presidential pre-election jitters for enthusiasm at Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton.

That enthusiasm — call it the Trump rally — ultimately propelled the Dow Jones industrial average to consecutive all-time highs this week and gave the Standard and Poor’s 500 index its biggest weekly gain in two years.

The rally lost some steam Friday, pulling the S&P 500 slightly lower.

The Dow rose 39.78 points, or 0.2 percent, to 18,847.66. The S&P 500 index fell 3.03 points, or 0.1 percent, to 2,164.45.

The Nasdaq compos-

ite index gained 28.32 points, or 0.5 percent, to 5,237.11.

For months, investors viewed Trump and his proposed agenda as a more risky bet for the economy and the markets than his rival, who had been widely perceived as the candidate most likely to keep the status quo in place.

But then the billionaire won. And, more importantly, Republicans retained majorities in the House and Senate, ensuring that the president-elect’s party will be in control when he takes office on January 20.

“I don’t think people planned on a straight Republican sweep,” said J.J. Kinahan, TD Ameritrade’s chief strategist.

“All of a sudden you realize some of the things that

the markets have been wishing for have a chance to be done. That’s why we’ve rallied so much.

This scenario was such a low probability, nobody was planning for it.”

Investors are now betting that Trump and a Republican-controlled Congress will have a clear pathway to boost infrastructure spending, cut taxes and relax regulations that affect energy, finance and other businesses.

That agenda flipped investors’ priorities this week away from defensive assets like bonds, utilities and phone companies, which traders had favored for much of this year, to health care, industrial and financial stocks, which notched their best week since 2009.

The trades mark a re-

versal from the last couple of years, when investors coped with government gridlock, sluggish economic growth and low interest rates by prizing less-risky assets and stocks like phone companies and utilities with high dividends.

Health care stocks are perhaps the best example of how investors’ mindset has changed in just a few days.

The sector had been one of the worst performers this year in anticipation that Clinton, who had mostly maintained a lead in the polls, would push to expand the government’s role in health care and curb price increases by drugmakers. That began to turn around this week, as investors bid up shares in pharmaceutical companies.

McConnell to Trump: Support Keystone Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The Senate’s top Republican said Friday he asked President-elect Donald Trump to move swiftly in approving construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, which has drawn strong opposition from environmentalists.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told reporters he made the request during his Capitol Hill meeting with Trump a day earlier.

“That’s the kind of thing that I hope he’ll be looking at, and we’re helping him look at — things that he can do quickly on his own,” McConnell said.

“Because much of what President Obama did that slowed our economy he did on his own, either executive orders or regulations.”

“So one of the ways to get this economy growing again, I think, is to deal with regulatory changes,” McConnell added.

Trump touted the stalled Keystone project during a late October campaign swing through Florida, saying: “We’re going to approve energy infrastructure projects like the Keystone pipeline and many more.” He listed the project among his top priorities for the first 100 days of his administration, saying it could provide “a lot of jobs, a lot of good things.”

Obama rejected the proposed Keystone XL pipeline last November, declaring it would have undercut U.S. efforts to clinch a global climate change deal at the center of his environmental legacy.

New York City Police adjust barricades Friday across the street from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. Trump’s presidential victory has increasingly turned the streets around his Trump Tower penthouse home into a hardened, national security location.

Fort Trump: New security measures at Trump Tower

BY TOM HAYS Associated Press

NEW YORK — Being a midtown Manhattan neighbor of Donald Trump now that he’s president-elect has come to this: navigating swarms of police officers, barricades, checkpoints and street closings that have turned Trump Tower — a tourist attraction normally open to the public — into a fortress.

The extreme security measures began going up around the landmark Fifth Avenue skyscraper on Election Day, when authorities brought in a fleet of heavy Sanitation Department trucks filled with sand to wall off the front of the glittering, 664-foot glass tower and protect it from a potential car bomb attack.

Those trucks were gone by Friday, replaced by concrete barriers stamped with the NYPD logo. But the stepped-up

security — a team effort by the Secret Service, the New York Police Department and Trump’s private security personnel — isn’t going away.

The Secret Service and NYPD wouldn’t detail what lies ahead. That will depend largely on how Trump decides to divide his time between Washington and New York and on an assessment of the vulnerabilities of Trump Tower, where the president-elect lives in a penthouse condo and his Trump Organization is headquartered.

“It’s going to take a lot of planning, and it’s going to take a lot of creativity,” said NYPD Deputy Commissioner Steve Davis.

The heightened security has already become a concern for some highend retailers in one of the city’s busiest shopping districts, especially with the holiday season

ramping up.

“We’ve heard a lot from the customers that it has been a real adventure even getting to us,” said Kevin Hill, manager of Crocket and Jones, a shoe store on West 56th Street.

“It probably drives people away,” he said of the security surge.

“I thought, ‘Gosh, if he comes up here every week on the weekends, that will be just a nightmare.’”

Police officers manning metal barricades asked visitors and shoppers where they were going before they could get onto the Trump Tower block Friday. People who said they were headed for the tower or the flagship Tiffany & Co. store next door were being let through, but the jewelry shop canceled the unveiling next week of its annual Christmas light display.

AT&T better than a CD

Dear Mr. Berko: I’m looking at Swedish mobile phone company Telia, whose shares trade at $7.77. Revenues and earnings are down because of poor earnings in many of the foreign units it’s selling. I’m thinking of buying 2,000 shares because the 36-cent dividend yields 4.9 percent. My stockbroker believes that the stock will double in the next couple of years, even though it may take that long for management to get its house in order. Please give me your thoughts on this. I would use Malcolm $16,000 from a $35,000 certificate of Berko | deposit that came due to buy 2,000 shares. I’d have $19,000 in cash left over to invest short term. Is there a five-year CD yielding over 1.8 percent in which I could invest this $19,000? I want to keep it liquid.

W.E. Vancouver, Wash.

Dear W.E.: Sweden, home to Carl XVI Gustaf and one of the 10 sovereign monarchies in Europe, is also home to Johan Eric Dennelind, the CEO of Stockholm-based Telia Co. AB (TLSNY-$7.77). Telia, founded in 1853, is a $10.3 billion-revenue telecommunications company that sells mobile, broadband and fixed services — including telephone, data and TV services — to customers in Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Spain, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia. TLSNY has been in business longer than AT&T (I didn’t know that the Swedes had telephones in 1853), and its 36-cent dividend yields 4.9 percent, a little less than AT&T’s.

Though TLSNY’s revenues are foundering, its operations are improving. For the first six months of 2016, management posted operating margins of 16.98 percent and net profit margins of 7.89 percent. And considering the wonderfully generous employee perks, including how well its 21,000 workers are compensated, those are very impressive numbers.

However, competitive pressures have wounded TLSNY in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Moldova and Georgia, and management has turned off the switch in those countries.

Though those countries have accounted for 21 percent of revenues, management believes that TLSNY’s earnings will improve nicely when they are completely off the books. Last December, TLSNY sold its Nepalese unit to Ncell for $1 billion, and in June, TLSNY sold Yoigo, its Spanish mobile phone unit, to Masmovil for $610 million. These sales will help streamline the company, reduce costs, improve the cash position to $2.1 billion and increase its book value to $2.

After several years of declining revenues and earnings, management finally found the guts to restructure the company. And that’s good. But the company’s total debt, $11.3 billion, exceeds revenues by $1 billion, and that’s not good. Morgan Stanley does dislike the stock a bit less now and has raised its rating to a couple of ticks above neutral.

And Goldman Sachs, which is doing investment banking for TLSNY, has become mildly bullish. The 4.9 percent dividend does appear temporarily safe, but a little voice is telling me to keep my money in the U.S. Using safe CD money to buy a stock yielding 4.9 percent is crazy. I don’t think Telia’s future risks are manageable.

I believe a blue chip investment that has increased its payout annually for over 20 years, has a long history of attractive payouts and currently yields 5.3 percent is a better investment. And a 5.3 percent yield is better than that of any CD I can find east, north or south of Vancouver. That investment is AT&T (T-$37.03), which I consider a proxy for CDs or corporate bonds. I can’t predict with any degree of certainty what T’s share price will be in 2021, but I can predict with a high degree of certainty that its $1.92 dividend will be raised five times between now and 2021. Yes, AT&T’s common stock is riskier than a CD. It changes in value every day, though in five years, it’s likely to be worth more than $37.03. Don’t be concerned if T’s value fluctuates; it’s liquid. You can sell a few shares anytime you wish if you need cash. The dividend is secure, dependable and like clockwork. It pays four times a year and, by 2021, could be raised to $2.20.

Today’s 5.3 percent yield for AT&T is a no-brainer CD substitute, and some observers are beginning to say that the potential merger with Time Warner could be sweet plum.

Zuckerberg: ‘Crazy’ to say Facebook affected election outcome

BY BARBARA ORTUTAY Associated Press

NEW YORK — Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says the idea that fake news spread on Facebook influenced the outcome of the U.S. election is “crazy.”

Still, the majority of Americans (six in 10) say they get at least some news from social media, mostly Facebook, according to the Pew Research Center. While a lot of this news comes from established outlets — whether CNN or BuzzFeed News, misinformation spreads on Facebook just as information does, shared by users, recommended by software and amplified by both.

Sources of spurious information have ranged

from news articles produced by “content farms” for the sole purpose of getting clicks, to “hyperpartisan” sites from both sides of the political spectrum, churning out stories that are misleading at best.

Case in point: “FBI AGENT SUSPECTED IN HILLARY EMAIL LEAKS FOUND DEAD IN APPARENT MURDERSUICIDE” — a fabricated headline from a fake news site called the Denver Guardian, was shared thousands of times in the days leading up to the election.

Is it possible that voters were swayed for or against a candidate, much like those same people might buy a product after seeing an ad on Face-

book?

Zuckerberg says voters deserve more credit.

During an interview Thursday with “The Facebook Effect” author David Kirkpatrick, Zuckerberg said the idea that people voted the way they did because of bogus information on Facebook shows a “profound lack of empathy” for supporters of Donald Trump.

“Voters make decisions based on their lived experience,” he said.

Given the acerbic political contest from which the country just emerged, when countless longtime friends, even family, were unfriended, many are left to wonder if there would be an alternative American history being written today if it were not for

Facebook, Twitter and the like.

This, after all, was the first truly social media election, playing out on Twitter and Facebook as much or more than it did on major networks, in living rooms and around watercoolers.

But isn’t social media just a reflection of our world as it exists? Has Facebook become an easy scapegoat when the answer is far more complex?

While Pew found that many believe political discussions on social media to be “uniquely angry and disrespectful,” a comparable number have the same impression of faceto-face conversations when it comes to Democrats, the GOP, or another party.

Peso takes a beating Global investors are seriously worried about Mexico.

The election of Donald Trump has caused investors to bet heavily against Mexico, its currency and Mexican companies. They worry that Trump’s plans to build a wall along the border, throw outt undocumented immigrants and renegotiate trade agreements will damage the country’s economy.

The peso has fallen 8 percent this week to roughly 20 pesos to the dollar, its lowest value in history. In comparison, the peso traded at roughly 13.50 pesos to the dollar two years ago, well before

Trump announced his candidacy. The stock market in Mexico has fallen nearly 4 percent just in November.

Investors are betting that a Trump Administration will renegotiate large parts of the North Fr Trade Agreement, American Free approve in the 1990s. NAFTA approved allow most goods to pass allows bet between Mexico, the U.S. and C Canada freely. Several c companies have operations in Mexico to take advantage of cheaper labor, for example automakers.

There are also concerns that Trump’s deportation of m millions of undocumented im immigrants will cause rem remittances to Mexico to dry up.

horoscope | Philosophers have debated for centuries on the differences between various types of nonsense.

Since no one can come to a consensus about it, it is reasonable to assume that your nonsense is as important as any other nonsense that’s ever existed. Also, Mercury transiting into Sagittarius favors the discovery of new very important nonsense.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your home should be a refuge, and yet you spend an awful lot of time tiptoeing around people and circumstances relating to the domestic lately. That’s not peaceful! Make a move to improve this before it spoils your well-being.

by holiday mathis TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Don’t hold on to secrets or shame out of fear of being judged. Half the time people are so into their own dramas that they could care less about yours. Tell, don’t tell -- that doesn’t matter. But in your own mind, let it go and be free.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). What’s in the stars for you now is a love as pure and all-consuming as a mother’s love for a child, only not from your mother and not for the childish part of you. This is a full-grown affection.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). To join another person’s world requires you to leave your own for a little while. Do you find this scary or adventurous?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you’re in that bubbly, break-the-ice kind of mood you’re liable to say the things that bring people together, make them giggle and also possibly ruffle feathers.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 12). The solar year brings a sense of coming into your age, a new era of you! It’s something special. Capricorn and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 6, 3, and 22.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Celebrities lend their endorsements to products for financial gain, but you have something much more integral at stake. You only make recommendations for what you absolutely believe in, a habit you’ll repeat today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Since you’re in such a hurry this week, here’s a time-saver: Learn as much as you can about where you’re going before you take the first step.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Whatever you want to accomplish today, it will happen through networks. Bonus: You’ll see where you could add a few people who are thrilled to be aligned with your specialness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your friends might falter. Now it’s up to you to uphold the values of kindness and decency, which, paradoxically, you’ll do in the most humorous and irreverent manner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your whole being leans toward one primary aim -- to raise the energy around you wherever you go.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). How do you get better? The answer is really simple. Live. Live consciously. Pay attention. Attention is love. If you seek improvement, you’ll tend to it, which is the same as loving it, which is eventually becoming it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Do you know someone who already has what you want? This will be most helpful. You need to analyze the qualities and know all there is to know about them.

Singer, poet Cohen dead at 82

BY ANDREW DALTON AND ROBERT JABLON Associated Press Writer

LOS ANGELES — Leonard Cohen, the baritone-voiced Canadian singer-songwriter who seamlessly blended spirituality and sexuality in songs like “Hallelujah,” ‘‘Suzanne” and “Bird on a Wire,” has died at age 82, his son said.

“My father passed away peacefully at his home in Los Angeles,” Adam Cohen said in a statement Thursday. “He was writing up until his last moments with his unique brand of humor.”

Cohen, also renowned as a poet, novelist and aspiring Zen monk, blended folk music with a darker, sexual edge that won him fans around the world and among fellow musicians like Bob Dylan and R.E.M. He remained wildly popular into his 80s, when his deep voice plunged to seriously gravelly depths.

He toured as recently as earlier this year and released a new album, “You Want it Darker,” just last month. Adam Cohen

Associated Press

Musician Leonard Cohen poses backstage at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in 2008 in New York. Cohen, the gravelly-voiced Canadian singer-songwriter, has died, his management said in a statement Thursday. said his father died with the knowledge that he’d made one of his greatest records.

Cohen’s “Hallelujah” went from cult hit to modern standard, now an unending staple on movies, TV shows, YouTube videos, reality shows and high school choir concerts.

Cohen, who once said he got into music because he couldn’t make a living as a poet, rose to prominence during the folk music revival of the 1960s.

During those years, he traveled the folk circuit with younger artists like Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez and others.

His contemporary Kris Kristofferson once said that he wanted the opening lines to Cohen’s “Bird on a Wire,” on his tombstone.

They would be a perfect epitaph for Cohen himself: “Like a bird on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free.”

“Hamilton” star and creator Lin-Manuel Miranda quoted those lines on Twitter Thursday night as one of many paying tribute to Cohen.

Mourners gathered and created a candle-lit shrine outside a home in Montreal, the city where Cohen was born.

Cohen never seemed quite as comfortable on stage as he did writing and recording, chalking it up to being a late starter among his folk cohort. “I was at least 10 years older than the rest of them,” he told Magazine, a supplement to the Spanish newspaper El Mundo, in 2001.

Judy Collins, who had a hit with Cohen’s song “Suzanne,” once recalled he was so shy that he quit halfway through his first public performance of it and she had to coax him back onstage.

Like Dylan, his voice lacked polish but rang with emotion.

In 2016, Dylan told The New Yorker that Cohen’s best work was “deep and truthful, “multidimensional” and “surprisingly melodic.”

Solution for last Game

CONTRACT BRIDGE |

BY STEVE BECKER

Teen punished with pushups avoids exercise

DEAR ABBY: I’m 19, and for the past year I have been out of my parents’ house (at last!).

I’m realizing now that the years I spent with Mom and Dad were different than other people’s.

My parents Abigail Van Buren | weren’t physically abusive, but they were mentally and emotionally abusive, and it has scarred me in some ways. Because I was never allowed to speak my mind, I shut down if anybody raises his or her voice to me.

When I was growing up, they used exercise as a punishment. If my brothers or I were late, it was 10 pushups. They also forced us to go through exercise programs. Naturally, as soon as I was free from them, I stopped exercising altogether.

I now realize I need to exercise again as I am technically obese, and I need to lose the weight while I’m still young.

My problem is, I’m not motivated. I tell myself I’ll go out and run, signed up for a gym — even got a running buddy. But I find myself making excuses and tricking myself out of going. What are some ways I can help myself mentally so I can get going on this ever-growing problem?

— CHUBBY IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CHUBBY: Your parents may have meant well when they insisted that you and your siblings get involved in exercise programs, but they were wrong to use exercise as a punishment.

While I can see why you now view exercise that way, its benefits are more far-reaching than weight loss. Being physically active benefits your heart and brain, and in addition, can be an effective stress reducer. It doesn’t necessarily have to be running. Perhaps tennis, bowling or dancing would be more enjoyable for you.

“Tricking” yourself can work two ways, but while I don’t advise tricking yourself to make yourself get off the couch, I think the adage “the way to get out of a jam is not to get into one in the first place” applies here. Some suggestions: When you get out of bed in the morning, have your exercise clothes already laid out. Instead

of reading or listening to the news, put them on IMMEDIATELY. Then eat some protein to boost your energy, and go out and do what you need to do.

Don’t expect to run a marathon immediately.

Start slowly and remember that stamina isn’t built overnight. Eventually, you will establish a routine — like brushing your teeth.

I won’t lie to you. It takes discipline. But now that you have “escaped” from your parents, YOU have to be your OWN parent, so it’s up to you not to let yourself be lazy.

P.S. When you’re on your way out the door, thank your higher power that you are able to do exercise because many people are not so fortunate.

And if you catch yourself slacking off after trying

what I have suggested, then consider consulting a licensed mental health professional to overcome your aversion to exercise.
