Initiative: ‘Let voters speak’

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Concerned that Mississippi legislators will attempt to sabotage a proposed constitutional amendment on school funding with a confusing ballot in November, supporters of the amendment are saying, “let the voters speak.”

The wording of Initiative 42

would be, “Should the State be required to provide for the support of an adequate and efficient system of free public schools?”

But the law allows the Legislature to add an alternative proposal alongside the initiative.

“The problem with that is, it was really always meant, I

think, as a ruse to sort of off-put anything ‘nutty’ that got put on the ballot,” said KC Grist, north Mississippi field representative for Better Schools, Better Jobs.

The ballot with an alternative measure would have four possible choices with what Grist called “very confusing” language.

“It’s really meant to kill the

issue, because as you then move into a campaign mode to encourage people to support an issue, two alternatives on there is a lot harder to explain,” she said. “What we’re trying to encourage the legislators to do is don’t overstep the public process that’s already been put Please see SCHOOLS | 2

Rare war bonds on display

BY STEVE BEAVERS

Basket fund nears $19,000 The spirit of giving the holiday season is alive and well in the Alcorn County area.

Donations are still needed this year for the 19th Annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund.

A $25,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 6. Baskets were given away based upon faith the goal will be reached.

The Confederate States of America was in need of money in 1861.

To finance the country and the war, the CSA turned to selling bonds as one means of producing funds.

“They had three options available to them,” said Larry Mangus, Commander of Col. W.P. Rogers Camp SCV #321.

“They used taxes, printing money and bonds.”

Mangus recently loaned five rare Confederate bonds to be displayed at the Civil War Interpretive Center.

“They are truly works of art,” said Mangus. “The bonds have a variety of pictures and scenes on them … just about everyone who was anybody in Confeder-

ate politics appeared on a bond.”

According to Mangus, 172 different bonds were issued.

Mangus has about 168 of the bonds in his collection.

“The other four are tough to get,” said Mangus.

Thirty percent of the CSA income came from the sale of bonds.

“There were two types,” he said. “Registered bonds were to be redeemed on a given date – usually 10-15 years after issue – while the Coupon bonds had their interest paid every six months.”

Most bonds paid 6 and 8 percent annual interest.

Historic figures such as Ben Franklin and former presidents George Washington and Andrew Jackson appeared on a bond.

“The only CSA general to appear on a bond was Thomas Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson, while Lucy Pickens is the only woman to appear on one,” said Mangus. “The detail in some of the these and who they honor is amazing.”

The five bonds are scheduled to be displayed around six weeks at the Interpretive Center.

“All of Larry’s displays draw a lot of interest,” said ranger Jim Minor.

“This is something you don’t normally see,” added Mangus. “The Interpretive Center is a part of the Southern Heritage and a great place to display pieces of that time.”

(The Interpretive Center is open daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.)

Corinth businessman Rick Quinn has be upgraded to critical, but stable condition at Regional One Health in Memphis.

“He has an infection in his right lung, but he continues to improve,” said son, Matt Quinn. “We are so thankful for all the prayers and concerns from our friends and family in the community. We love everyone.”

Quinn apparently lost control of his BMW sedan Friday night around 8:15 p.m. on Afton Drive inside the subdivision of Highway 2 in North Corinth.

He left the roadway, hit a tree and overturned into a lake, where Corinth Fire Department Station No. 2 firefighters found his vehicle fully submerged in frozen water.

Once pulled from the water, Quinn received CPR and was taken to Magnolia Regional Health Center via EMS. He was later flown to Regional One Health.

Corinth Police Chief Ralph Dance said the investigation into the cause of the wreck continues.

A well known pharmacist in the community, Quinn owns Medical Plaza Pharmacy with locations on Alcorn Drive and Harper Road.

Lowndes school board puts off bond decision The Associated Press

COLUMBUS — The Lowndes County School Board has put off deciding the details of a proposed bond election — including the setting of a date — until after a work session next week.

Superintendent Lynn Wright had suggested the vote on the anticipated $39.9 million bond issue would be held Feb. 3.

“We’ll have more information when we have our work session,” LCSD superintendent Lynn Wright said. “We’ll have our tax clerk give us a report on projected revenues and everything like that, so we can make a more informed decision.”

The Commercial Dispatch reports the bond in question is a reduced

version of a $47 million bond rejected at the polls Aug. 26. That bond won 52 percent of the vote, but not the 60 percent needed to be approved.

Wright said community members have been asking him when the bond issue will be on the ballot again.

The new bond issue is expected to include $25 million for a new New Hope High School, $11 million for a centralized career-tech center, $2 million for a new athletic field house in Caledonia and around $1 million in upgrades for the West Lowndes campus.

“It’s an opportunity to get our students into some updated buildings that will be much more environmentally friend-

ly,” Wright said.

A centralized careertech center would help unify the district, he said.

Right now, students can only enroll in career-tech programs offered at the high school they attend.

“If we can get a centralized career-tech center built we can offer about twice as many courses as we offer now, and we can offer those courses to all the students in Lowndes County,” Wright said.

Wright said East Mississippi Community College is working with the school district on the center.

“We can have the kids prepared to enter the workforce or for more advanced training at EMCC or a four-year institution,” he said.

say that all the money has got to come in one year.

It says the money only comes as there is growth.

It’s an incremental step toward getting there.”

As state funding has lagged, some districts have had no choice but to raise local property taxes.

“We have been fortunate that we have had growth here in the city in terms of the tax base,” said Childress. “Not phenomenal growth — not like what we saw in the late ’90s and early 2000s — but we have seen that growth, and through management and other things, we have been fortunate that we have not had to raise taxes since 2001-02.”

Meanwhile, between 2008 and 2013, county school millage increased by 4.39 mills.

“It will come to a point that the burden will be put more on the local property owner,” said Childress.

Alcorn Superintendent Gina Rogers Smith said the county schools budget felt the pinch last year when the state approved teacher pay raises but the district did not receive full funding for them, forcing some shuffling elsewhere in the budget to get them

covered.

Grist said someone recently asked her why the group didn’t attempt to lobby for more education funding.

“That’s been happening for 17 years,” she said.

“This truly was a last resort effort.”

And the MAEP funding formula can still be changed, for the better or worse, she said.

Critics have argued that full funding of MAEP will pour more money into school district administrative costs, but Grist said that is expressly prohibited by the MAEP formula. During the 20112012 school year, spending on district administration was 1.92 percent for the Alcorn School District and 2.77 percent for Corinth. Smith said Alcorn’s percentage has decreased since then.

At the end of the day, Childress said the state and local communities simply must become more serious about education.

“Everybody’s going to tell you they’ve got good schools,” he said, “whether it’s Corinth, Tupelo, Oxford, but what do you have that is the difference? We’ve got to define ourselves.”

False alarm Katherine Carmichiel and her “Uncle” Pat Palmer watch as Corinth firefighters head to the roof of the Alcorn County Chancery Court Building about noon Sunday in downtown Corinth. Corinth Fire Chief Lucky Briggs said a fire alarm went off inside the building and because no key holder to the building could be located, firefighters had to check out the roof. It was a false alarm.

Vicksburg Police Department hoping to buy body cameras The Associated Press

VICKSBURG — Vicksburg police are hoping to purchase cameras to keep a better eye on officers and suspects in the field.

Police Chief Walter Armstrong said he’s examining funding options for purchasing bodyworn cameras for the department’s more than 70 officers.

“I think they’re a wonderful idea, I would love to have them for each of the officers,” Armstrong tells The Vicksburg Post.

President Barack Obama announced in December a federal initiative for $263 million in funding for law enforcement agencies to buy cameras and improve training. The White House said the funding could help in buying 50,000 body-worn cameras.

“I would like to have them sooner than later, but it’s going to depend on the funding,” Armstrong said. “We’re going to look at all possibilities to make that happen in the future.”

The cameras have become a hotbutton issue around the nation since

the Aug. 9 shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. Darren Wilson, the officer who shot Brown, was not wearing a camera.

Some critics of the shooting say if Wilson had been wearing a camera, questions surrounding the shooting could be answered. Without video footage police shootings frequently boil down to a hesaid, shesaid situation played out in private before a grand jury.

Not everyone supports the cameras though. Police unions have raised opposition, and some groups argue that body cameras could violate privacy, such as when officers are interviewing children or sexual assault victims.

The Warren County Sheriff’s Department began using the cameras last May, Sheriff Martin Pace said.

“We have had cameras installed in every Warren County patrol car for about 15 years,” he said. “As we began changing out some of our older camera systems, the new systems come with a body cam attachment for the officer.”

in place.”

The group says almost 200,000 Mississippians showed support for getting the initiative on the ballot, driven by the issue of full funding of the Mississippi Adequate Education Program, which has been slighted in all but two of its 17 years.

From fiscal 2009 to 2014, the group says the Alcorn School District has been underfunded by about $9.3 million, and the Corinth School District has been underfunded by $5.7 million.

Corinth Superintendent Lee Childress thinks the ballot initiative is a better approach than the equity funding lawsuit spearheaded by Ronnie Musgrove, the former governor.

“We are beginning to ask students and we are beginning to ask teachers to do even more and reach a higher level of performance, but we are asking them to do it with significantly less dollars than most people all across the country are getting, and I think that’s an issue that has to be looked at,” he said. “The nice thing, I think, about the initiative is it doesn’t

who are looking for info about the service, want to learn more or get help signing up, however, I encourage anyone in any of the fiberhoods that is interested in learning more about the service to come by.”

Rose is thankful the 18-month long process to qualify one of Corinth’s three fiberhoods is complete.

“We’re so happy to be at this point. It means a lot to the over 80 volunteers that worked so hard to get this technology in Corinth. To be among a handful of communities in the country that can say they have this tech-

nology is amazing. What a benefit for all of us that live here and work here,” Rose said. “Technology is going to the differentiator in the workforce in the future, and we can say we are way ahead of the curve.”

Corinth joins Quitman, Ridgeland and Starkville in Mississippi who already have the service.

“The people of Corinth made this happen and it was humbling to be a part of it. Those who live in Central and South Fiberhoods are still in this, too,” added Rose.

“This has definitely been a hard fought victory for Corinth and so exciting to see the technology in action in our home-

town.”

The fiber service will provide speed 100 times faster than average broadband service. Gigabit per second speeds are available in only a handful of U.S. cities.

Pricing and packaging options will be displayed and discussed during the event.

“The Cspire staff are the experts on all the packages and cost and discounts that may apply,” said Rose. “From what I’ve heard, the package deal, especially the 3 in 1 combo is priced competitively.”

For CSpire customers, the 1 Gbps Internet access is available for $70 a month, $90 a month

S

for combined Internet and home phone, $130 for Internet and HD TV and $150 a month for the three-service package.

Non-customers must pay an additional $10 a month on all packages.

Online pre-registration remains open in Corinth at www.cspire.com/ corinth. Residents are required to make a $10 refundable deposit and indicate their interest for specific services.

While these services are currently only available to the North section of the city, the Central and South sections can still qualify for service by pre-registering at www,cspire.com/ corinth.

Lawmakers propose State to look for university Bible for state book chief following Bounds’ exit

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi is the birthplace of William Faulkner, Richard Wright and recent U.S. poet laureate Natasha Trethewey.

However, some lawmakers say they want to look beyond the secular literary world and designate the Bible as the state book.

At least two bills are being filed during this state election year to make the holy book a state symbol.

One is from Republican Rep. Tracy Arnold of Booneville, who is the pastor of a nondenominational Christian church. The other is from Democratic Reps. Tom Miles of For-

est and Michael Evans of Preston, who say they have promises of bipartisan support from more than 20 colleagues.

Miles told The Associated Press on Monday he’s not trying to force religion — or even reading — on anyone.

“The Bible provides a good role model on how to treat people,” Miles said.

“They could read in there about love and compassion.”

Lawmakers say designating the Bible as the state book would be completely symbolic and nobody would be required to read it. Furthermore, Miles’ version would not specify a particular translation.

BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s College Board is looking for a new boss to oversee the state’s eight public universities.

Higher Education Commissioner Hank Bounds, commissioner in his native Mississippi since 2009, was announced Monday as the new president of the University of Nebraska.

Board President Aubrey Patterson of Tupelo declined immediate comment.

Bounds is scheduled to start work in Nebraska in April. It’s unclear whether the Mississippi board will name an interim commissioner. Board members are scheduled to meet Jan. 22 and could discuss the subject then.

College Board trustee Ed Blakeslee of Gulfport said becoming president of a university and not just the head of a system was a natural step.

“I think five or six years is about a lifetime for this job,” Blakeslee said.

“It’s a tough job and I think the next step in his career was to be president of a university. He’s been a tremendous commissioner and we’re going to really miss him.”

Blakeslee said the board didn’t counter Nebraska’s offer, including a $480,000-a-year salary. Mississippi’s board gave Bounds a 5 percent raise starting Oct. 1, increasing his salary above $358,300 a year.

A 47-year-old native of the Forrest County hamlet of Brooklyn, Bounds was state superintendent of K-12 schools from 2005 to 2009 and was superintendent of the Pascagoula school system from 2001 to 2005.

Bounds led Mississippi’s universities during a time of fiscal stress, pushing institutions to draw more students and collect more tuition to replace falling state funding.

Corinth, Miss.

Study finds no simple answers on efficiency JACKSON — Those who oppose spending as much as Mississippi’s K-12 funding formula demands have basically two linked positions: that the state is spending enough already, and that if school districts got Jeff Amy more money, they’d just waste it.

Columnist Gov. Phil Bryant seemed to imply that what’s needed is not more money but more demand for excellence while speaking to a rally Tuesday to oppose the Common Core State Standards.

“We’re determined that after nearly 100 years of failure, our public school system must succeed,” Bryant said. “Now we cannot continue to say, “Well, if we only had enough money. If we only put more money into this formula, if we only did this, if we only did that.’ Whatever it takes at this point it is going to take the state of Mississippi standing up and demanding we have a successful and productive K through 12 educational system.”

The waste argument goes beyond a flat “no,” though. It centers on how schools statewide have been spending their money since cuts began during the recession. During that time, the share of school district spending on what the Mississippi Department of Education classifies as instruction has gone down, from 68.2 percent in the 2008 budget year to 66.1 percent in the 2014 budget year, which ended June 30. Actual instructional spending has been basically flat during that period at about $2.7 billion.

People who oppose more spending note that the share of money spent on administration, both in district offices and for principals, has gone up during that period, rising from 9.89 percent of spending in 2008 to 10.56 in 2014. But the area that rose the most was instructional support, climbing from 15.6 percent to 16.8 percent. In dollar terms, that’s about an $80 million increase.

It’s unclear how teacher raises, which are included in the Mississippi Adequate Education Program formula, will affect total spending over two years. But people who oppose adding enough to make up the gap between current spending and what the formula calls for also focus on the need for greater efficiency.

Last week, a legislative watchdog committee released a report looking at just that subject. The Joint Committee on Performance Evaluation and Expenditure Review looked at 14 districts, including seven that spend less per student than the state average but get higher test scores, and seven that spend more per student and get lower-than-average test scores.

Of the 14 districts sampled, those rated as A or B spent an average of $6,672 per student for what PEER called “educational service delivery,” while the districts rated as C, D, or F spent $9,539 per student on average.

Some of the high-rated districts are large by Mississippi standards, including DeSoto and Rankin counties, allowing them to harness efficiencies of scale. But PEER also looked at A-rated Enterprise in Clarke County, with 1,000 students.

Those looking for an efficiency silver bullet will be disappointed, though. The committee found management strategies varied widely across the districts, and that even efficient districts do a poor job of documenting how they save money.

“PEER could not identify specific efficiency drivers within the selected school districts that could be compiled into a best practices list,” the report’s authors wrote.

The committee did recommend that districts use more sophisticated financial methods, like focusing on the cost of computers and software over their entire life rather than just when purchased, or using fuel consumption and repair costs to determine bus replacement.

PEER also recommended districts seek more bang for their contracting buck, buy jointly to cut costs and evaluate whether all current employees are still needed.

Prayer for today Creator of all, help me to see what there is for me to do; and help me to know that I cannot be productive if I am hovering in the choice of my work. May I learn from thy great works of heaven and earth the ways of selection and steadfastness. Give me the desire to work and the confidence that is needed to carry on my work. Amen.

MAEP battle will be fought on two fronts STARKVILLE — The brewing battle over what the Mississippi Legislature does with the Mississippi Adequate Education Program (MAEP) conflict will be defined both by numbers and by language.

Proponents of the Better Schools, Better Jobs group are pushing a ballot initiative to amend Section 201 of the Mississippi Constitution to require that the state provide and the Legislature fully fund an “adequate and efficient” public school system.

As to language, the state’s initiative and referendum law presents a clear obstacle to the constitutional amendment proponents and it’s all about language.

Since 1993, Mississippians have had the option of taking the power away from the Legislature and changing the state constitution as they deem appropriate when the Legislature refuses to act. The process is called initiative and referendum and it isn’t easy.

Perhaps the hardest hurdle is this - once the petitions are received and reviewed and pass muster as this one has, the Legislature must have a chance to review the initiative’s wording. If legislators don’t agree with the amendment’s wording,

the law allows them to offer an amendment that the Legislature approved.

Sid Salter That’s the genesis of Columnist the so-called “Hands Off 42” movement that seeks to shame legislators from exercising that option. It’s a movement that virtually certain to fail. The Legislature will almost surely offer an alternative amendment to the voters.

Of course, language isn’t the only factor in the MAEP fight. Numbers will play a huge role – as if a lot of competing numbers regarding actual education funding, possible legal fees and the cost of competing needs in state government.

Former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove wants Mississippi to sue its way to so-called “full funding” of MAEP. Musgrove has filed a lawsuit seeking to force the state to pay millions to 19 state school districts that the former governor claims the state has underfunded based on the MAEP formula.

Opponents will talk about legal fees – a number that undermines Musgrove’s arguments that the lawsuits

are the result of a lifetime commitment to public education. It’s also worthy of note that MAEP was only “fully funded” once during his tenure as governor.

MAEP was created in 1997 in reaction to lawsuits nationally from education advocacy groups which were successfully suing states on grounds that it was unconstitutional that students living in poorer school district were being denied the same public education advantages being afforded to students in more affluent districts.

But in political reality, Mississippi has only “fully funded” MAEP twice and both times were in election years. The Legislature “tweaked” MAEP to provide additional funds for so-called “high growth” school districts in 2005. It was a fairly easy sell in the Legislature. Why? Because most of those “high growth” school districts were located in the state’s top 10 Republican counties.

But numbers also will provide ammunition to those seeking a more robust level of support for K-12 education in Mississippi.

MarketWatch writer Thomas C. Frohlich analyzed education funding among the 50 states and list-

ed Mississippi as fifth from the bottom on the states that spend the least on education. Frohlich identified per pupil spending at $8,164 from total education spending of $4.5 billion (18th lowest in the nation – and that in a state with the nation’s lowest median household income at $37,095).

Frohlich observed: “Nearly 18 percent of Mississippi elementary and secondary school funding came from the federal government, more than every state except for Louisiana. More than 19 percent of households in the state used food stamps in the 12 months prior to 2012, second-most in the nation. Education Week gave Mississippi an “F” in K-12 student achievement last year, making it the only state to receive a failing grade. Just 26.1 percent of fourth graders, and 21.3 percent of eighth graders, in the state were proficient in math, both among the worst nationwide.

Bottom line? The Legislature is unlikely to surrender control of the budgetary process without a fight – and a big one at that.

Can anyone come up with a platform?

There are likely to be many surprises in a race for the Republican presidential nomination that has something like 20 plausible potential candidates. The first of those surprises came in the last hours before New Year’s when Jeb Bush announced he was setting up an exploratory committee to consider running for president.

The website of Bush’s new PAC, Right to Rise, shows that he has been paying attention to the ongoing policy dialogue among conservative thinkers. “The central moral promise of American life,” it declares, is the right “to move up the income ladder based on merit, hard work and earned success.”

That’s in line with conservatives and Republicans who have been noticing that incomes below the top level have not been rising much, not only during the Obama presidency but also the presidency of George W. Bush. “The income gap is real,” the PAC’s website declares, but “only conservative principles can solve it by removing the barriers to upward mobility.”

Bush’s website does not get much more specific than

that, with slides calling for education, entrepreneurship, free enterprise and Michael “growth for Barone everyone.”

But that sugColumnist gests that Bush, assuming he runs, is preparing to follow up with a list of policy initiatives to emphasize in his campaign and, if that’s successful, beyond.

Looking back on my experience as a political consultant, I have argued that successful candidates for executive posts need to emphasize a short list (three or four) of policies that will work for them in the primaries, work in the general election and, most important, work in governing.

But few candidates manage to do that because it’s harder to do than to say.

Republicans are tugged to the right and Democrats to the left in primaries, after which a move to the center is awkward and often unconvincing.

And anticipating what policies will work years ahead of time is always difficult and subject to error,

particularly on foreign policy. Bill Clinton in 1992 decried American inaction in the Balkans, and then hesitated to take action for years after his election. George W. Bush in 2000 called for a “humble” foreign policy and took quite a different approach after Sept. 11, 2001.

Nonetheless, I believe that both Clinton and Bush did a good job of following my formula on domestic issues in their initial campaigns. Clinton set forth a “New Democratic” platform that included welfare reform and increasing the earned income tax credit.

Bush called for tax cuts, education accountability and a Medicare prescription drug benefit. Both delivered on those promises, often with bipartisan support.

Barack Obama did less well, I would argue. He started emphasizing health care only when searching for a topic to mention in a debate. His appeal was based on his opposition to the then highly unpopular Bush and to the fact that he would be America’s first black president. Unfortunately, Obamacare remains unpopular and the racial divide seems wider than before 2008.

Meanwhile, political commentators have been trotting out scenarios for the Republican nomination fight. Mike Huckabee’s announcement he is exploring a run sparked speculation that would help Bush (because Huckabee ran poorly among non-evangelicals in 2008). There’s talk that Bush’s support of Common Core and his stand on immigration make him unnominatable.

Maybe so. We’ll see how the campaign goes. There are too many possible permutations and combinations to regard any scenario as likely.

What I would like to see is many candidates doing what Jeb Bush seems to be setting out to do – emphasizing a list of policy initiatives that could work in the primaries and the general and being the basis of a successful presidency. How many will manage to do so?

Senate pushes on amid Obama threat WASHINGTON -- The Republican-controlled Senate is moving ahead on a bill to construct the Keystone XL pipeline despite President Barack Obama’s veto threat.

A test vote was scheduled for late Monday, though winter weather could delay the roll call.

The legislation would authorize construction of the 1,179-mile pipeline.

It would carry more than 800,000 barrels of crude oil a day from Canada to refineries along the Texas Gulf Coast.

The House approved the bill last Friday.

Senate Republicans back the measure, arguing that it will create thousands of jobs.

It’s expected to attract the support of several Democrats.

The White House has threatened a presidential veto of the measure, saying it conflicts with longstanding presidential authority and his ability to make decisions on issues in the nation’s interest. Â

Print, TV journalist Westfeldt, 91, dies PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. -- Wallace O. Westfeldt, whose half-century journalism career started in print and led to network and public broadcasting, died Sunday at the age of 91.

Westfeldt’s death in Plattsburgh, New York, was confirmed by his family.

His first newspaper job was as a reporter at the Nashville Tennessean during a time it was at the forefront covering desegregation.

He worked alongside David Halberstam, Tom Wicker and John Seigenthaler and was assigned to cover the landmark U.S. Supreme Court school segregation case, Brown v.

Board of Education.

Westfeldt left in 1960 to work on the documentary series “NBC White Paper� and then the news program “The Huntley-Brinkley Report� in 1963. He became the program’s executive producer and oversaw NBC’s coverage of the Vietnam War, producing the first live, one-hour

satellite reports from overseas.

In 1971, Westfeldt launched the NBC Nightly News with John Chancellor and later was executive producer of “NBC Reports.�

He left NBC in 1976 for a job as executive producer of the PBS weekly series “USA: People & Politicsâ€? and then to ABC News to work on the investigative unit ABC Special Reports. Â

Man gets 3 years for smuggling tusks BANGOR, Maine -- A New Jersey man accused of smuggling narwhal tusks is going to federal prison for nearly three years.

A federal judge in Maine imposed the 33-month term on Andrew Zarauskas of Union for conspiracy, smuggling and money laundering. He also must forfeit six narwhal tusks, a narwhal skull and about $85,000.

Narwhals are known as the unicorns of the sea for their spiral tusks that can grow longer than 8 feet. They’re protected by the U.S. and Canada.

Prosecutors said the tusks were smuggled into Maine from Canada and shipped to Zarauskas and a Tennessee man.

Zarauskas’ lawyer, Steve Smith, said his client thought he’d bought legal tusks. Â

2 airlines targeted in mile theft plan DALLAS -- Thieves with stolen usernames and passwords have broken into customer accounts at American and United airlines and in some cases booked free trips or upgrades.

The airlines say the incidents happened in late December. American began notifying affected customers by email on Monday, a spokeswoman said.

Some travel websites are fighting this type of fraud by adding steps to the login process, and they warn against using the same username and password on more than one site.

United Airlines spokesman Luke Punzenberger said thieves booked trips or made mileage transactions

on up to three dozen accounts. United notified customers in late December, and Punzenberger said the airline would restore miles to anyone who had them stolen.

American Airlines spokeswoman Martha Thomas said that about 10,000 accounts were affected and some have been frozen while the airline and customer set up new accounts, starting with customers who have at least 100,000 miles. She said the airline has learned of two cases in which somebody booked a free trip or upgrade without the account holder’s knowledge.

Thomas said that American would pay for a credit-watch service for one year for affected customers.

Both were quick to say that nobody hacked their systems — that thieves got usernames and passwords somewhere else and tried to use them to log into American’s AAdvantage and United’s MileagePlus, hoping that the login information would be the same. Â

Tornado victims get housing assistance JACKSON -- The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency has activated the state’s Temporary Disaster Housing Assistance Program.

Gov. Phil Bryant says in a news release he took action after President Barack Obama denied Mississippi’s request for FEMA assistance to victims of the Dec. 23 tornadoes in Jones and Marion counties.

Bryant says the rental assistance provided by the state program will help put Mississippians into secure housing in the short-term as they recover and rebuild.

The program will provide eligible homeowners up to 90 days of rental assistance reimbursement and eligible renters up to 30 days of assistance. Â

Man is dead after setting home on fire PASCAGOULA -- Pascagoula police say a man is dead after setting fire to his home as police cornered him in connection to a shooting.

Police Capt. Shannon Massey tells The Mississippi Press the shooting happened Sunday morning in the parking of a drug store.

When officers arrived, Massey says they found a female and her mother in her vehicle. He says the younger woman indicated that her husband, Elarry Brumfield, had been shooting at them with a rifle.

Police found Brumfield at his home.

While officers were trying to make contact with him, Massey says he set the house on fire. Â

No travel impact by bridge safety wall SAN FRANCISCO -Traffic flowed normally on the Golden Gate Bridge during the Monday morning commute after a weekend closure to install a safety barrier designed to reduce the dangers of head-on crashes.

The bridge reopened at 9:30 p.m. Sunday, more than six hours ahead of schedule, said Priya Clemens, a spokeswoman for the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District. Traffic was normal and no problems had been reported with the addition, Clemens said.

For the longest period in its nearly 80-year history, the bridge was closed early Saturday to all but pedestrians, cyclists and buses to install the barriers on the 1.7-mile-long bridge.

Previously, only yellow plastic tubes offered protection from opposing traffic.

Since 1970, there here have been 128 head-on collisions on the bridge, resulting in 16 deaths, Clemens said.

Currently, deputies are responsible for purchasing their own guns; which can cost up to $1,000 dollars each.

Scott says the weapons purchased with proceeds from the sale will go to the patrol division and the special response team.

The “Tommy Gunâ€? became infamous from its use by both law enforcement officers and criminals like Al Capone. It’s now popular among gun collectors. Â

NASA tests new SLS rocket engine BAY ST. LOUIS — NASA has successfully tested the rocket engine that may one day power men to Mars.

The test was conducted Friday at the Stennis Space Center in Hancock County.

Steve Wofford, with the SLS Liquid Engines Office at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, says the RS-25 was fired for 500 seconds. He says the test provided data on the engine controller unit and inlet pressure conditions.

Wofford says it was the first “hot fire� of an RS-25 engine since testing of space shuttle engines ended in 2009.

Four of the engines will power the Space Launch System on future missions.

Testing will resume in April after a system that provides cool water for the test facility during a hot fire test is upgraded. Â

Shipyard pays fine over dust, paint JACKSON -- A Pasca-

goula shipyard is paying a $144,545 civil fine for violations including allowing sandblasting particles and paint to become airborne.

VT Halter Marine agreed to pay the fine to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality.

The shipyard, owned by Singapore Technologies Engineering, has been one of several industries along Bayou Casotte that has faced complaints from nearby neighbors.

A Nov. 13 order published by the department says that Halter committed a total of 44 violations documented in a May 2014 inspection.

Other problems included failing to properly store, label and dispose of paint and solvent, failing to prevent soil erosion, and failing to keep down dust. Â

Supervisors call for trustees to quit PASCAGOULA — Members of the Singing River Health System Board of Trustees have been asked to resign.

The Jackson County Board of Supervisors called for the resignations Monday in a unanimous vote. Supervisors say the resignations would restore faith in the health system, which has been embroiled in controversy over its handling of an employee pension plan.

Supervisor Mike Mangum called for the vote.

Mangum says he thinks current trustees will “tender their resignations soon.� Meanwhile, he said, supervisors will be “diligently� working to find the “right� people to appoint to those fiveyear positions.

Submachine gun gets police $25,000 WEST POINT — The auction of a .45 caliber Thompson submachine gun has netted $25,000 for the Clay County Sheriff’s Department.

The Daily Times Leader reports the tommy gun, manufactured in 1936 and donated to the sheriff’s office in 1945, was sold to William McDonald of Newellton, Louisiana.

Sheriff Eddie Scot says bidding ended last Thursday.

Effort seeks to preserve Music Row in Nashville The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Fresh off their successful effort to prevent the demolition of a Nashville studio that once recorded the likes of Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings, advocates want to include all of the city’s Music Row area in their preservation efforts.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation announced Monday that it is placing Music Row on its “National Treasure� list of historically significant sites threatened by development. “Do we want to imagine Nashville without a Music Row?� asked David J. Brown, the group’s vice president and chief

preservation officers. “It’s the heart and soul of this great city, and it’s definitely a national treasure.�

The Washington-based nonprofit is joining with the Music Industry Coalition, Mayor Karl Dean’s office, the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corp. and city and state historical preservation groups to draw attention to Music Row’s cultural heritage.

Preservation efforts were jump-started last year amid plans by a developer to raze RCA Studio A and to build luxury condominiums in its place.

The studio was developed by country legend Chet Atkins in 1964 and

Singer-songwriter Ben Folds has rented the studio for 12 years and led efforts to save the space that culminated in philanthropist Aubrey Preston’s last-minute purchase of the property from the developer in October. “This was supposed to have been rubble right now, that’s what blows me away,� Folds said at Monday’s announcement, held in Studio A. Folds said he was spurred to seek wider attention to the impending demolition of the studio because of the history that would be lost with it. “It seemed to me to be a little bit of a tipping point if an incredible studio like this on Music Row was just to disappear in the dead of night,� Folds said. “I felt like the identity of Nashville needed to remain.�

Like many other nondescript buildings on Music Row, little on the exterior suggests what’s happening inside Studio A, which has a recording room large enough to hold a full orchestra. Similar rooms in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Mexico and Rome no longer exist.

Education secretary backs testing The Associated Press

WASHINGTON —Foreshadowing what could be a contentious battle with Congress, Education Secretary Arne Duncan said Monday that rolling back federal testing requirements in math and reading would deprive students, parents and their schools of critical information needed to measure educational progress.

Duncan chose the 50th anniversary of President Lyndon Johnson’s introduction of a landmark education equity bill to make the Obama administration’s case for continued testing. Civil rights groups and state education chiefs also have voiced support for it. “I believe parents, and teachers and students have both the right and the absolute need to know how much progress all students are making each year towards college and career readiness,� Duncan said.

He said that too many 16- and 17-year-olds find out too late they aren’t prepared for college, and “those days must be over.�

The No Child Left Behind education law, signed into law by President George W. Bush in 2002, requires children to be tested in reading

in math in grades three through eight and once in high school.

With Republicans newly in charge of both houses of Congress, Senate education Chairman Lamar Alexander, RTenn., has said his top priority is fixing the law, which expired in 2007.

His first hearing is expected next week with a focus on testing. Both he and House education Chairman John Kline, RMinn., have said the federal government needs to get out of the business of deciding what to do about low-performing schools, education standards and teacher evaluations.

Alexander said in a statement that the committee expects to send a bill to the Senate early this year. “My goal is to keep the best portions of the original law and restore to states and communities the responsibility for deciding whether teachers and schools are succeeding or failing,� he said.

Duncan acknowledged that there are places where tests — and test preparation — take up an excessive amount of time. He urged Congress to provide money to states to improve the quality of their tests and to have states set limits on time spent on stan-

your heart and mind before anything else gets to them. “Set your affection -mind- on things above, not on things on earth� (Col. 3:2) FEELINGS: Express them with love and honesty. Whether fear, guilt, rage, shame, or anxiety, express your feelings to God, yourself, and a trusted friend. “Open rebuke is better than secret love� (Prov.

27:5) TROUBLES: Be trustful. They can cause us to turn our thoughts to God . Such matures us through trial and hardships. Look to God in every circumstance and trust his guidance -the Bible- in the highs and lows in life. “Follow peace with all man, and holiness, without which no man can see God� (Heb. 12:14).

WORSHIP: Do not get too busy throughout the week to make continual offerings of praise to God. Expressing your love and adoration to God is not reserved for Sundays only. Jesus is Lord every day of the week. “Be still and know that I am God-� (Psalms 46:10).

SIN: Do not let any sin harden your heart or break the connection

dardized testing.

As he laid out a case for equity in education, Duncan said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;deeply concerned about where some Republicans are headed.â&#x20AC;?

No Child Left Behind requires schools to show annual growth in student achievement or face consequences. It has been credited with putting a focus on how schools handle minority, lowincome, English learners and special needs students, but also has led to complaints that teachers were teaching to standardized tests and that mandates were unrealistic and penalties ineffective. Beyond the federal requirements, many districts and states require other standardized tests.

Since 2012, President Barack Obama has allowed states to get a waiver from some of the more stringent requirements of the law, but they had to agree to requirements such as implementing teacher evaluation systems with teeth.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been widespread agreement that the comprehensive law needs to be fixed, but disagreement over how to do it.

The National Education Association, a teachers union, wants Congress to adopt a federal requirement that students be tested just once in elementary, middle and high school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents and educators know that the one size fits all annual federal testing structure has not worked,â&#x20AC;? NEA President Lily Eskelsen GarcĂ­a said in a statement. She said states and districts should be given flexibility in deciding how to use testing to identify achievement gaps.

On Sunday, a coalition of 20 civil rights groups said a top priority with the reauthorization is continuing the federal annual testing mandate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The reason is simple: Kids who are not tested end up not counting,â&#x20AC;? said Kati Haycock, president of the Education Trust.

The Council of Chief State School Officers said it supports annual testing because â&#x20AC;&#x153;every parent has a right to know how their child is performing academically in public school.â&#x20AC;?

2 Albuquerque officers facing murder charge The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —Two Albuquerque police officers were charged with murder Monday in the killing of a homeless man, a shooting that led to sometimes violent protests and a federal investigation into the city’s police force.

Police said SWAT team member Dominique Perez and former detective Keith Sandy fatally shot Boyd, who was holding two knives, during a standoff in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains.

Video from an officer’s helmet camera showed Boyd, who authorities say was mentally ill, appearing to surrender when officers opened fire.

The shooting occurred during a year when police tactics came under intense scrutiny around the country, fueled by the fatal shooting of an unarmed 18-year-old in Ferguson, Missouri, and the chokehold death of another unarmed man in New York City. Grand juries declined to charge officers in those cases, leading to protests.

“Unlike Ferguson and unlike in New York City, we’re going to know. The public is going to have that information,” said District Attorney Kari Brandenburg, who said she decided to bring murder charges and avoid a grand jury to heighten transparency.

Each officer faces a single count in the March death of 38-year-old James Boyd. The charges allow prosecutors to pursue either first-degree or second-degree murder against the officers.

Sam Bregman, lawyer for Sandy, said there is “not one shred” of evidence to support the case.

Bergman says the officer had no criminal intent when he encountered the knife-wielding homeless man who had a long his-

tory of violent encounters with authorities, and that he followed training procedures outlined by the police department.

As a police officer, Sandy “had not only the right but the duty to defend a fellow officer from a mentally unstable, violent man wielding two knives,” Bregman said.

Luis Robles, an attorney for Perez, said he was “confident that the facts will vindicate Officer Perez’s actions in this case.”

The FBI is also investigating, but U.S. authorities have not said if the officers will face federal charges.

Even before Boyd’s death, the U.S. Justice Department was investigating the use of force

by Albuquerque police.

The department recently signed an agreement to make changes after the government issued a harsh report. The agreement requires police to provide better training for officers and to dismantle troubled units.

Since 2010, Albuquerque police have been involved in 40 shootings — 27 of them deadly. After Boyd’s death, outrage over the trend grew.

The protests included a demonstration where authorities fired tear gas and another that shut down a City Council meeting.

The criminal charges were the first Brandenburg has brought against officers in a shooting.

She is in her fourth term as district attorney and is waging a fight with the Albuquerque Police Department over allegations that she committed bribery while intervening on behalf of her son in a burglary case.

Police believe she should be charged with bribery because they say she offered to pay a victim not to press charges. The attorney general’s office is handling the matter.

Spotlight on CSX

Job market monitor

Wall Street expects CSXâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earnings and revenue improved in the last three months of 2014 versus a year earlier.

The freight railroad operator delivered higher quarterly earnings for much of last year after it recovered from a setback in the first quarter as harsh winter weather cut into its business. The company reports its latest quarterly financial results today.

A new Labor Department survey of job openings should provide insight into the health of the U.S. labor market.

The November Job Openings and Labor Turnover survey, or JOLTS, is due out today. The survey provides figures for overall hiring, as well as the number of quits and layoffs. The number of U.S. job openings rose to 4.8 million in October, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just below Augustâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total, which was the highest on records dating back to 2000.

Woman questions her relationship WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: My boyfriend and I are in our 60s and have been together for 12 years. We recently had a disagreement, and he walked away. I emailed him and he said he has feelings for me and always will, but he can’t make me happy. He said I need someone who is as romantic and financially secure as I am. He has no pension, no savings and a business that is barely surviving. He also told me that his health problems are why we haven’t had sex in four years.

I am his fifth relationship that hasn’t worked out. He used to phone me every night and I miss that. After previous disagreements, he always came back. He said he doesn’t want to be in a relationship now and needs to look after his business.

He claims to be a workaholic. Should I contact him again? -- J. Dear J.: How much do you want to suffer?

There are reasons this man is incapable of being in a permanent relationship. If he wants that to change, he would likely need counseling to understand his motivations better. But you cannot make that happen.

You can only decide what is best for YOU. Unless this man gets help and makes major

Annie’s Mailbox changes to his life, he cannot give you any type of commitment, nor does he want to.

He prefers to leave the relationship. We think you should let him.

Dear Annie: When our relatives come for a visit, as they do every winter without fail, why do they expect to be treated to free accommodations and free meals, which we provide year after year, while they never offer a coffeecake or pizza or, better yet, to prepare one of the many meals expected during their visit? An offer to treat us to a meal at a restaurant, even breakfast, would be welcomed.

From my perspective, these “guests” freely take our time, our generosity and our kindness at a most stressful time of year, and their only form of appreciation is the blanket invitation to “come on down” offered at their departure.

Why don’t they mention possible dates for a future visit to make the invitation seem genuine?

These guests do not suggest or pay for activi-

ties while visiting us. They think that since they paid to travel to us, we should be willing to cover all expenses while they are here. And since it is their vacation, they treat us as their employees.

We love our family members.

We are happy to see them at every opportunity.

But we feel taken advantage of, especially when they notify us of the dates for their next visit.

-- Planning Now Dear Planning: You are being too accommodating, and they are clueless. You need to set some ground rules. This is family.

They visit every year.

It’s OK to tell them what you expect.

Ask them to pitch in for groceries and to help in the kitchen.

Once they understand that even guests have obligations, these visits will run more smoothly for everyone.

Search low-cost sources for professional counseling D E A R ABBY: In many advice columns it is often suggested to “seek professional Abigail help,” such Van Buren as a psychologist or psychiatrist.

Dear Abby This is a practical solution, but most often quite expensive, to the point of being prohibitive.

Where else can one turn to find assistance that will be practical, ongoing and costeffective rather than something that immediately throws up a roadblock to wellness? -- DETOURED BY FINANCES DEAR DETOURED: Some of these suggestions might be helpful: (1) Contact a university medical school if there is one in your community, and ask to speak to the Department of Psychiatry. Ask if it has an outpatient clinic. If it does, inquire there.

If not, ask if someone on the staff deals with problems like the ones you’re experiencing.

(2) If you live in a town with

a college, find out if it has a graduate school. If so, does the graduate school have a psychology program and a clinic that charges on a sliding financial scale? If there is no clinic, ask if someone on the staff of the psychology department sees people privately and what’s the person’s phone number. Then contact that person.

(3) People can get referrals from mental health organizations. The largest credentialed ones are the American Psychological Association, the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy and the National Association of Social Workers. These are legitimate organizations and have professional standards.

(4) You can locate government-funded agencies with psychiatric services by going on the Internet. Some hospitals refer to community service organizations. In any emergency room, you can contact the hospital’s outreach to community development programs, as well.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and a friend of mine joke about being an item.

They do this in public and in front of me. They hug, hold hands or rub each other’s shoulders, but I don’t think anything more goes on.

These activities offend and embarrass me. My husband says the jokes are innocuous, that I’m too sensitive and I’m making a mountain out of a molehill. He says they certainly wouldn’t act that way in public if they were really seeing each other on the sly.

Do you think I’m being overly sensitive about this? -- DISRESPECTED DEAR DISRESPECTED: I don’t think you’re being overly sensitive.

That it’s “innocent” is beside the point.

Because you have told them that their touchy-feely demonstrations of affection for each other offend and embarrass you, out of respect for you, they should cut it out.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

The way you become a powerful force in the world is very simple: Be yourself. Honor your joy. Get to know what makes you happy and keep doing that.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You’re a leader, and you like to follow, too -- it’s how you learned effective leadership in the first place. This conundrum will show up in your life, and there will be moments when you’re torn about whether to lead or fall in line.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Your social graces will be in top form today, and it’s a good thing -- this is what the world needs. You’ll make it easy for people to get to know who you are and what you’re about, and you’ll share yourself in many ways.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

In order to speak well on a topic, you have to first understand it thoroughly. That’s why you’ll do so much research and listening today. You’d rather not have to correct yourself later.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your dietary needs are changing with the physical demands of your life. With each meal you eat, ask yourself how you could make it better for yourself. Probably the answer is in fresh vegetables.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There are life stressors that you can’t do anything but laugh about. The key is to determine quickly which are the ones that you can’t do anything about and consciously decide not to take them on.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you think your family is complicated and weird, just ask the person next to you to tell you a story about his family. There isn’t a person on the planet who doesn’t have weirdness in the family.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

There’s something you want to put off, but the very fact that you feel that way about it means you probably shouldn’t.

Handle the hard stuff early in the day just to get it over with.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-

Dec. 21). You are highly influential and may be able to convince an entire crowd of people to do something. This is, of course, most efficiently accomplished with social media.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don’t usually consciously decide how you want people to treat you, until they happen to mistreat you. Then you understand clearly where the boundary is, and you work to reinforce that boundary for the future.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be a great showman today with a production that is truly magnificent. You don’t even want credit. The artful aspect of it is that you dazzle them and make them feel as though they had a major part in it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Stress is among the most harmful of outside forces. Do what you can to make it easy on yourself. Reduce the tension. There are simple ways to dial down the pressure. Start by asking for help.

All About Firefighters

Kids News A Fireman is a person who fights and extinguishes fires. Millions of fires begin each year and cause great damage. Typically, fire departments in the United States respond to two million fires each year. There are different types of fires; for example, there are building fires, brush or grass fires, motor vehicle fires, and rubbish (or trash) fires. Firefighters must handle a variety of special-situation fires. Fireman Tanker fires, airport fires, industrial or chemCrossword ical fires, forest fires, and high-rise fires are especially dangerous. Firemen must sometimes be detectives since they are in charge of learning what started the fire. Wildfires are another serious problem that Firemen fight against. Wildfires are much like forest and grass fires, but they burn much larger, and sometimes more dangerous, portions of land. For this reason, it is very important to make sure that all campfires are completely out before you leave your campsite or go to sleep for the night. Firefighters work every day to prevent these tragedies. Always remember to use fire carefully and in the presence of an adult. This will help prevent these types of disasters which are both naturally and humanly created.

The Basics of Fire Safety

Fire Safety is the best way to avoid accidents caused by fires. If you ever catch on fire, remember these three things : STOP, DROP, and ROLL. This can save your life.

Practicing it is important!

Ohio State defeats Oregon 42-20

BY RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Football Writer

ARLINGTON, Texas — Ohio State can add the newest version of the national championship trophy to a case that already has a bunch of the old ones. The Buckeyes’ third-stringer matched Oregon’s Heisman winner as Cardale Jones led Ohio State past Marcus Mariota and the Ducks 42-20 in the first College Football Playoff national championship game Monday night at the $1.2 billion home of the Dallas Cowboys.

Behind their bullish backup quarterback and the relentless running of Ezekiel Elliott, the Buckeyes (14-1) completed a remarkable in-season

turnaround with a dominating performance against the Ducks (13-2). “The chase is complete,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said.

“It’s done. It’s over. They accepted their final mission, their final assignment and their final directive, and they did it. That was our whole mantra this last couple of weeks. A job well done, and we’re very grateful.”

Ohio State began the first major college football playoff as the fourth and final seed, and as a team that faced questions about whether it belonged at all.

It was a team that never would have had a chance to win a title under the old post-

season system.

No question about it now: Ohio State is the truest champion big-time football has ever crowned, showered by golden confetti as its band played “Hang on Sloopy” when the clock hit 0:00.

Meyer’s Buckeyes overcame two injured Heisman contenders and one awful early season loss at home to Virginia Tech to win their first national title since 2002.

Back then the Bowl Championship Series decided No. 1 at the end of the season — usually.

Before that, it was up to The Associated Press and coaches’ polls to sort out which team was best, with little help from

the bowls.

The Buckeyes have three of those championships, too.

And Meyer now has three, adding this one for his home state team to the two he won for Florida.

It’s taken just three seasons in Columbus for Meyer to put the Buckeyes — and the Big Ten — back on top, with a team that looks built to last.

Mariota passed for 333 yards and two touchdowns, but the Ducks’ warp-speed spread offense missed too many red-zone opportunities and couldn’t unleash its running game against linebacker Darron Lee and an Ohio State front seven stacked with future NFL draft picks.

Mississippi’s Batoon given on-field position The Associated Press

OXFORD — Mississippi has promoted Corey Batoon to its on-field football coaching staff.

Batoon has been at Ole Miss since 2012 in various administrative roles for the football program. He will coach the safeties and also be the special teams coordinator. Defensive coordinator Dave Wommack, who coached the safeties this year, will handle the linebackers.

Batoon replaces Tom Allen, who left last month to become the defensive coordinator at South Florida.

Batoon also spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Arkansas State and 11 seasons as the associate head coach, defensive coordinator and secondary coach at Northern Arizona.

Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said in a statement that Batoon “is a brilliant football mind, and I am confident he will thrive in this role.”

Rocker given promotions The Associated Press

ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia coach Mark Richt has given promotions to assistants Tracy Rocker and Bryan McClendon.

Rocker, the defensive line coach, has been named associate head coach. McClendon, the running backs coach and recruiting coordinator, was named assistant head coach.

Rocker’s new title came after his first season at Georgia, following three years as defensive line coach for the NFL Tennessee Titans. Rocker, a former Auburn standout, was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2004.

McClendon, a former Georgia wide receiver, joined the staff in 2009. He began heading the recruiting efforts last year.

South Carolina LB Lewis will play elsewhere The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Reserve linebacker Kaiwan Lewis said Monday he’s leaving South Carolina.

Lewis announced on Twitter that he would finish up his degree at South Carolina and then look to play his senior season at “another division 1 program without sitting out a year,” he wrote in his post.

Lewis is a six-foot junior from Pleasantville, New Jersey. He started 10 games and was third on the team with 54 tackles as a sophomore in 2013.

However, he made only one start and 20 tackles this past season. Lewis did not play in South Carolina’s regularseason finale at Clemson or its 24-21 victory over Miami at the Independence Bowl last month.

Lewis says he spent several months considering his choices and spoke with those close to him about his next move.

Grizzlies finalize 3-team trade, get Green The Associated Press

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Memphis Grizzlies hope Jeff Green can boost their offense and give them an edge in the tight Western Conference race after acquiring the forward from Boston in a three-team trade approved Monday.

In the trade, the Grizzlies sent forward Tayshaun Prince to Boston and forward Quincy Pondexter to New Orleans. The Grizzlies also received point guard Russ Smith, a 2014 second-round pick, from New Orleans, and a traded player exception.

The Pelicans sent Austin Rivers, the 10th overall pick in 2012, to Boston in the deal.

Memphis also gave a 2015 second-round pick to New Orleans and a protected future first round pick to Boston.

The trade ends a long weekend for a deal that started coming together Friday with Prince not sure if he should warm up for a game in New Orleans. The Grizzlies held out both Prince and Pondexter from Sunday’s 122-110 double overtime win over Phoenix. Pondexter watched the game from a box with general manager Chris Wallace and had his locker boxed up ready to go.

“It’s a business,” Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph said Sunday night. “Tayshaun

is like a brother. We’re real close here in the locker room.

It’s a business, and he understands that.”

But Green is expected to provide more offense for Memphis, which has gone 5-5 over its past 10 games. That left the Grizzlies tied Monday with Houston atop the tight Southwest Division at 26-11 just ahead of Dallas. The Celtics (12-23) are busy rebuilding.

The 6-foot-9 Green averaged a career-high 17.6 points with 4.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 33 starts with Boston this season. He is shooting 43.4 percent from the floor and 30.5 percent from beyond the arc. The fifth overall

draft pick in 2007 by Boston, Green was traded to Seattle on draft night.

“Anytime you lose you’re leading scorer, there’s going to be challenges that come with that,” Boston coach Brad Stevens said before Monday’s game against New Orleans.

It’s another in a line of trades the past few years for Boston’s president of basketball operations Danny Ainge, who also dumped point guard Rajon Rondo last month during his free agent season.

“I just felt like a timeline thing, the players that we had, the uncertainty of the future and free agency and felt like Please see GRIZZLIES | 13

we were getting good value in return based on this contract situation,” said Ainge.

He also said “I don’t know” when asked if either Price or Rivers would play for the Celtics. Green missed the 2011-12 season because of heart surgery. He also has played with Oklahoma City and is averaging 12.3 points and 4.0 rebounds in 21 playoff games.

He will replace both Prince and Pondexter at small forward. Prince, 34, averaged 7.3 points and 3.2 rebounds in 26 games with Memphis this season while Pondexter scored 4.5 points and grabbed 1.9 re-

bounds in 30 games with two starts.

The Pelicans are trying to stay in striking distance of a playoff berth in the West, and are happy to bring back Pondexter to the team where he spent his rookie season after being picked up in a trade with Oklahoma City during the 2010 draft. With a glut at guard, the 6-7 Pondexter is expected to either start or rotate with Dante Cunningham.

“Quincy is a two-way player, a multi-position defender that will add toughness along with an offensive skill set that we anticipate will help the Pelicans win games,” Pelicans general manager Dell Demps said in a statement.

Fox out after 4 West titles, playoff nosedives The Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.

— John Elway is looking for a new coach after agreeing to part ways with John Fox following Denver’s latest playoff meltdown.

Fox won the AFC West all four of his years in Denver, but each of those seasons ended in ugly fashion in the playoffs, culminating with Sunday’s 24-13 upset by Indianapolis. Fox might already have something in the works with another franchise — he didn’t shoot down a pregame report Sunday night that he could be available if the Broncos lost. Neither Fox nor Elway would say what was discussed Monday when they met other than it was time to split up. “It became clear that it was best for both the Denver Broncos and Coach Fox to move on and make this change,” Elway said in a statement. So, Fox is out after going 49-22 in Denver, including the playoffs, following a 78-74 record in nine years with the Carolina Panthers, counting the postseason.

Fox gathered his players at noon Monday but didn’t talk about his own future. Chris Harris Jr. said Fox’s message was “just that he appreciated everybody’s efforts. He loved us and everybody just be smart in the offseason and make sure you take care of your body to be ready to come back ready to roll when OTAs start.”

Two hours later, Elway met with Fox and told the assistant coaches they remain under contract but were free to pursue jobs with other teams.

“Wow ...,” said Omar Bolden. “Damn,” tweeted Terrance Knighton.

The Broncos went 8-8 in Fox’s first year, when Tebowmania was in full pitch. The stakes were raised when Denver won the Peyton Manning sweepstakes and replaced Tim Tebow in 2012. Manning was murky about his future Sunday night, saying he had to process this latest loss before deciding whether to play an 18th NFL season. He wasn’t in the locker room Monday.

Elway thanked Fox for helping “establish a positive, winning culture for this team” and said he “deserves a lot of credit for the Broncos’ turnaround,” but added “there is still work to be done” to win a Super Bowl.

Fox characterized his meeting with Elway as productive and honest and the two “mutually agreed that the timing was right for this decision.” “Although we came up short of our ultimate goal, I am proud of our

team’s many accomplishments during these last four years,” Fox said in a statement. “It was an honor to coach the Denver Broncos, a first-class franchise with great fans and a winning tradition.

“I am eager to continue my coaching career and look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead,” Fox added.

Fox became the only coach in NFL history to win a dozen consecutive divisional road games on his way to an unprecedented four straight AFC West titles in Denver. But the goal when Manning came on board was Super Bowl trophies.

Instead, Manning is 2-3 in the playoffs with the Broncos. Elway brought Fox to Denver in the aftermath of the Josh McDaniels era, saying he was looking for someone who could breathe some positive vibes into a locker room that had been beaten down as McDaniels’ 6-0 start in 2009 turned sour and resulted in his firing midway through 2010.

Fox’s first task was figuring out what to do with Tebow, and the coach’s flexibility showed, when he completely remade his offense for Tebow after sticking him in the starting lineup in Game 6 of the 2011 season.

Denver won seven of the next 11 games and finished 8-8, which was good enough to win the middling AFC West.

Tebow threw the winning touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in overtime in the wild card game against Pittsburgh, which set up an ugly — but understandable — 45-10 loss to New England in the divisional round.

The Broncos finished the 2012 regular season with 11 straight wins and were shocked when they lost 38-35 to Baltimore in double overtime at home in the divisional playoffs. Fox came under scrutiny after that one — too conservative — mostly for kneeling on the ball with 31 seconds left after the Ravens completed a long touchdown pass to tie the game. But in 2013, at Manning’s urging, the Broncos were anything but conservative — going to a hurry-up offense that helped Manning and the offense set passing and scoring records on their way to the Super Bowl.

That beautiful season ended ugly, as Seattle clogged the passing lanes in a 43-8 victory — a result that compelled Elway to spend $60 million in guarantees on new defensive players, with the thinking that his quarterback shouldn’t have to win it all by himself.

Cowboys move on with big questions The Associated Press

IRVING, Texas — DeMarco Murray had no interest in discussing his future with the Dallas Cowboys a day after a division-round loss to Green Bay. Dez Bryant didn’t even show up when the locker room was open to reporters Monday, far from unexpected when he knew the primary topic would be his huge catch that could have set up a late touchdown getting reversed on replay in a 2621 defeat. Not to mention whether he’ll be back.

The dominant question of the offseason — along with how soon coach Jason Garrett gets a new contract — will be the status of the NFL rushing leader in Murray and the league’s top producer of receiving touchdowns in Bryant.

Both are free agents, and both would take a big chunk of a salary cap that’s still a little tight for the Cowboys even after dumping franchise sacks leader DeMarcus Ware last year.

“I’m not worried about my future,” Murray said shortly after offering a terse

“I don’t know” to the question of whether he would be back. “I just lost a big game, the biggest game of my life. Just not worried about it right now. Just relax with my family and get away from it for a little bit.”

Bryant won’t be able to get away from questions about the catch that wasn’t for a long time, maybe until he gets past the divisional round, if that ever happens.

It was a play of such magnitude, even defensive players were getting questions about whether it was a catch, and whether the rule should change.

Of course the Cowboys are going to say it was a catch, but several were quick to add that there were other opportunities to get the storied franchise to an NFC championship game for the first time in 19 years. The longest previous gap between conference title games was nine years.

“I looked at it over and over,” defensive end Jeremy Mincey said.

“It was definitely frustrating. But it shouldn’t have even came down to one play. We missed some key tackles and that’s what

hurt us.”

A season that began with owner Jerry Jones tamping down expectations by telling thousands of fans at a kickoff luncheon that his team faced an “uphill battle” ended with the first playoff berth — and postseason victory — since 2009.

“It didn’t matter what anyone else had to say outside of these walls,” said cornerback Brandon Carr, who didn’t have an interception for the first time in his career and could be asked to take a pay cut if he wants to return.

“It was motivating, entertaining at times. We had a mission and task at hand. Although it was a good season, we still feel like we had much more to prove. We weren’t done with our journey.”

Jones may have a hard time keeping play-caller Scott Linehan, a catalyst for Murray’s huge season, and defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli.

The former Detroit coach made the Cowboys competitive with several bargain-basement pieces, and Dallas was much better than the league’s worst defense from a year ago.

“We have a special thing

going with all the pieces that are in this building right now,” Carr said. “We have something special brewing and the chemistry’s definitely coming around and you can see it on the field.”

Tony Romo was still standing at the end of a season that started with the 34-year-old quarterback coming off back surgery.

He missed a game with another back injury, and played through a left knee injury in the loss to the Packers.

Bryant is likely to rejoin Romo because the Cowboys can use the franchise tag on him at least once if they can’t agree on a long-term deal. If Murray returns as well, Romo will also have trusty tight end Jason Witten and a young offensive line considered one of the best in the league.

“You just don’t know how many opportunities like this will come around,” Romo said after the game.

“That is the hardest part. You just don’t know.

You know everything you had to do to get to this point and now you have to do it again.”
