Deliberations continue in murder trial

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

BOONEVILLE — Jury deliberations will continue today in the case of a Prentiss County woman being tried for a second time on a charge of murder for the shooting death of her mother after jurors failed to reach a verdict late Thursday evening.

Rebecca Lynn Jones is charged with murder in the death of her mother Jane Jones, who was shot twice during an altercation between the two women at the mother’s Prentiss County home in May 2010. She took the stand in her own defense Thursday prior to closing arguments in the case.

Jurors began deliberating the

case at 4:30 p.m. Thursday and returned to the courtroom just after 7:30 p.m. after sending a note to Judge Jim Pounds asking that they be allowed to go home and return to their deliberations this morning. Pounds granted the request after the jury foreman said he did not believe additional discussions Thursday eve-

ning would produce a verdict and noted the jury had not yet taken any vote on the case.

Jurors will have the option to find Jones guilty of murder, culpable negligence manslaughter, manslaughter in the heat of passion or not guilty.

Closing arguments centered on the issue of whether or not

KOSSUTH — A quartet of Prentiss County individuals remain jailed at the Alcorn County Justice Center on drug-related charges.

A traffic stop on Highway 2 led to all four people being arrested, according to Alcorn Narcotics Unit’s Darrell Hopkins.

Alcorn County Sheriff Department Deputy Mackie Sexton attempted to stop a vehicle for erratic driving and switched tag Tuesday but the driver fled behind a factory on the highway.

“They were trying to hide when Officer Sexton pulled behind to block the vehicle,” said Hopkins.

Deputy Caleb Marolt arrived and assisted Sexton in

Over 600 folks got wild at the Crossroads Arena.

When it came to food.

The 28th Annual Alcorn County Wildlife Tasting Supper had its share of exotic dishes for the 625 in attendance to sample Tuesday night. Everything from Pinto Bean Pie to Diabetic Deer Chili was available. Also included in the 183 dishes were Wild Hog Tamales, Bear Ball Tamales, Rabbit Enchiladas and even Squirrel

Fajitas.

“We were needing extra dishes and we got them,” said Sandy Mitchell with the Alcorn County Soil and Water Conservation District.

The district along with the Mississippi Forestry Commission, Mississippi State Extension Service, Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, and USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service combined to coordinate the event for another year.

“I heard nothing but positives,” added Mitchell. “I can’t thank our local sponsors enough … they go all out for this.”

A pair of guns were raffled

removing the driver, Scotty Wayne Davis, and passenger, Miriam Denise Jones.

“Deputies observed a canister beside the driver’s side door which contained methamphetamine along with several items inside the vehicle used to manufacture meth,” said Hopkins, who took possession of all evidence at the scene.

Davis, 41, of 32 County Road 8340, Booneville, was charged with felony possession of methamphetamine and possession of precursors with intent to manufacture a controlled substance.

there was a struggle between the two women leading up to the fatal shots.

Defense attorney Rob Laher told jurors his client has been consistent in describing the events of the night of the shooting. He argued his client was

off during the annual supper.

Mason Shadburn claimed the youth gun — a Rossi .243 20 gauge gun — sponsored by the Corinth Bank Association.

The adult gun, a Remington 887 Camo co-sponsored by the Wildlife Committee and Alcorn County Farm Bureau, went to Terry Bain.

Tim Mitchell won the 5-by8 trailer of the Alcorn County 4-H Chapter.

Crossroads Poetry Project shares ‘Ties That Bind’ program

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

“Ties That Bind,” a Black History Month event sponsored by the Crossroads Poetry Project, starts at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Waldron Street Christian Church.

This free event will feature storytelling, poetry, music and dance, said Crossroads Poetry Project President Autry Davis.

“It should be a really good show,” Davis said.

According to Davis, the idea for “Ties That Bind” has been brewing for over a year.

“This thing came about

because Volante’ Jones approached me last year about coming up with ideas for a black history program,” Davis explained. “We didn’t have enough time last year and said we would work toward next year. So we got together and started pulling it together.”

The show will be divided into four parts based on different time periods: 1) 1619-1865; 2) 1866-1953; 3) 1954-1971; and 4) 1972-2013.

The narrative of those years will be told through poetry, African American spirituals, folk tales and dance.

“When people come in they’ll be able to look at the images coming by with music in the background.”

Autry Davis President, Crossroads Poetry Project

Davis will share several stories, including “Emancipation Day” and “Brer Fox and Brer Rabbit Go Hunting.” Musical performers will include Albertine Warren, Lashonda Cope-

land, Cassie Lampley, Anita Gaines-Temple, Donna Luster and more.

The Contemporary Arts Center Dancers will perform three dances choreographed by Vo-

lante’ Jones The Corinth High School percussion ensemble will open the show.

Beginning before the show at 6:30 p.m., Theresa Eubanks will present a DVD of images from African American history.

“She’s done stuff like that for us before, and she’s done a great job in the past,” Davis observed. “When people come in they’ll be able to look at the images coming by with music in the background.”

The event will also include recitations of poetry by Natasha Trethewey, Rita Dove and Tupac Shakur.

On this day in history 150 years ago Gen. Van Dorn leads his cavalry into Tennessee. Union troops based out of Corinth attack the rear of his column in Tuscumbia, Ala., capturing one piece of artillery, 100 prisoners, 200 horses, a large number of mules and several wagons of supplies.

railroaded by investigators determined to fit the facts into a preconceived notion of what happened and who his client is based on her past history. “She told you the absolute truth,� said Laher. “Nobody wanted to find out for goodness sake that she might be telling the truth.�

He said Jane Jones was shot during a struggle over the gun with her daughter and there was never any evidence of intent to murder.

He argued a more thorough investigation would have revealed physical evidence consistent with her description of a struggle.

After Assistant District Attorney Josh Wise laid out the overall facts of the case in his portion of the state’s closing, Assistant District Attorney Kimmi Kitchens told the jury the facts demonstrate Rebecca Jones is clearly guilty of murder. She said Jones at no point attempted to help her mother and instead fled the scene after firing the fatal shots.

Kitchens said there was no evidence of a struggle in the home found because none exists and instead the condition of the home points to their having been no altercation in the home. She said Jones never showed remorse for the killing and asked jurors to return a verdict of guilty of murder. “This isn’t an accident.

This isn’t self-defense. This isn’t manslaughter. This is murder, cold-blooded murder,� said Kitchens.

She ended by replaying the 911 tape in which Jane Jones reported she had been shot by her daughter and pleaded for medical help.

Rebecca Jones took the stand in her own defense Thursday, claiming she shot her mother during a struggle over the gun she carried for self defense.

Jones claims she was preparing to leave her mother’s house after a heated discussion over property and other issues and removed the gun from her purse to reach her keys.

As she picked up the weapon her mother yelled and

rushed at her. “I heard her scream ‘give me that (expletive) gun’ and she was on me in a heartbeat,� she said.

The two struggled over the weapon and at one point the defendant claims the gun was even turned toward her. She said one shot was fired and they went down on the floor wrestling and then another shot was fired and her mother continued to struggle. “She kept struggling and then she stopped,� said Rebecca Jones.

The defendant then threw the gun onto the couch and listened as her mother called 911 and described her version of what happened, telling dispatchers her daughter had tried to kill her. Rebecca then says she attempted to pick up an extension and get on the line with 911 to tell them it didn’t happen like that.

She testified she panicked after realizing her mother had been shot and left the scene but returned after coming to her senses. “I went down the road and then I thought, ‘You haven’t done nothing wrong,� she said.

She returned to the house where she was arrested by a sheriff’s deputy and placed in the back of a patrol car where she claims she sat in shock, praying for her mother’s life.

When asked by her defense attorney Rob Laher if she ever intended to kill her mother, she tearfully replied “No. No. No. No.�

The defendant testified she had gone to her mother’s home that day to talk with her about concerns raised by other family members and friends about alleged erratic behavior by her mother including her plans to sell all the family land including a portion previously owned

by Rebecca that she still considered her own.

She told jurors she was in the area from her home in Alabama visiting friends and planning a jewelry sales party when she stopped at her mother’s home. She acknowledged a past history of drug abuse and erratic behavior and a long history of problems

between herself and her mother but said they were getting along better since the birth of her grandchild.

She said she had turned her entire life around since meeting a good man and joining Alcoholics Anonymous and had established a good, stable, loving life in Alabama. She said there is no way she would risk all that to violently confront or kill her mother.

She said she feels guilty about what happened because her gun took her mother’s life but she believes she did nothing wrong. “I loved my momma.

Despite everything I’ll always love my momma,� she said.

Under cross examination by Assistant District Attorney Kimmi Kitchens, she acknowledged she did not have a permit for the gun. Kitchens questioned her repeatedly about her decision to leave the scene immediately after the shooting and call her boyfriend instead of calling 911 or otherwise trying to help her mother as she lay bleeding to death on the floor of the home.

Jones said she was in shock and panicked and she believed her mother was already getting help since she was on the phone with 911.

This was the second time Rebecca Jones has faced a jury on the charge. Last October a mistrial was declared on the second day of Jones’ first trial after she fell ill and was hospitalized.

She was later released from the hospital and ordered held without bond until the conclusion of the case.

Prosecutors have argued the shooting occurred during an argument between the women over that property and that Rebecca Jones had gone to the house that day to confront her mother over the issue.

Defense attorneys claim Rebecca Jones went to the house to check on her mother after becoming concerned about her behavior and the shooting was an accident that happened during a struggle for the gun They say the defendant never intended to shoot her mother.

Two more subjects were arrested Wednesday as officers followed up on the case. “A pair of individuals were involved with Davis and Jones in manufacturing methamphetamine,� added Hopkins.

Officers arrested Kristy Renea Ivy, 31, of 1114D Highway 30 East, Booneville, and Brandi Lynn Wheelington, 34, of 318

County Road 4251, Booneville, at a business on U.S. Highway 45. “When officers approached the pair, they found methamphetamine in the vehicle,� said Hopkins.

Ivy is charged with felony possession of methamphetamine while Wheelington was charged with conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine.

Today in history Today is Friday, Feb. 22, the 53rd day of 2013. There are 312 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 22, 1732 (New Style date), the first president of the United States, George Washington, was born in Westmoreland County in the Virginia Colony.

On this date: In 1784, a U.S. merchant ship, the Empress of China, left New York for the Far East to trade goods with China.

In 1862, Jefferson Davis, already the provisional president of the Confederacy, was inaugurated for a six-year term following his election in November 1861.

In 1865, Tennessee adopted a new constitution which included the abolition of slavery.

In 1909, the Great White Fleet, a naval task force sent on a round-the-world voyage

by President Theodore Roosevelt, returned after more than a year at sea.

In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge delivered the first radio broadcast from the White House as he addressed the country over 42 stations.

In 1935, it became illegal for airplanes to fly over the White House.

In 1943, Pan Am Flight 9035, a Boeing 314 flying boat, crashed while attempting to land in Lisbon, Portugal. Twentyfive people were killed; 14 survived, including actress-singer Jane Froman.

In 1959, the inaugural Daytona 500 race was held; although Johnny Beauchamp was initially declared the winner, the victory was later awarded to Lee Petty.

In 1967, more than 25,000 U.S. and South Vietnamese troops launched Operation Junction City, aimed at smashing a Vietcong stronghold near the Cambodian border. (Although the communists were driven out, they later returned.)

In 1973, the United States and China agreed to establish liaison offices.

In 1980, the “Miracle on Ice” took place in Lake Placid, N.Y., as the United States Olympic hockey team upset the Soviets, 4-3. (The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal.)

In 1993, the U.N. Security Council unanimously approved creation of an international war crimes tribunal to punish those responsible for atrocities in the former Yugoslavia.

Ten years ago: Jesica Santillan, the teenager who’d survived a botched heart-lung transplant long enough to get a second set of donated organs, died two days after the second transplant at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina.

Five years ago: Turkish troops crossed into northern Iraq in their first major ground incursion against Kurdish rebel bases in nearly a decade. Singer-actress Jennifer Lopez gave birth to twins, a girl and a boy.

10K CONTINUED FROM 1A

Corinth is set for May 4 at 8:30 a.m.

“Our numbers for this early are actually higher than last year,” said Smith. “Right now, we have 200 people signed up for the race … 70 more than last year with the number increasing.”

A new record for participants was set last year with 1,366 signed up despite there not being any race day registration. The new number eclipsed the old mark of 1,326 set in 1991.

Participants are encouraged to begin training with a 15 minute run/walk three times a week the initial week.

The training then begins to increase to 20 minutes three times a week for the first month.

“If muscles are sore from the training, they should skip a day,” said Smith. “And always check with a physician to see if it is OK to train.”

A new thing being of-

fered for the race this year is a choice of mesh tech shirt or smooth tech shirt. The choice is being offered to those who sign up early.

“This is only available while sizes remain, then we will fill orders with whatever is left,” added Smith.

The shirts will be red this year with the theme of “Run for the Gold” over a gold replica of a trophy.

Corinth, Miss.

New world disorder They were droning on about drones the other day in Washington.

The Senate Intelligence (ha-ha) Committee was grilling CIA chief-designate John Brennan on the use of unmanned aircraft during his tenure as President Barack Obama’s adviser on terrorism.

Drones are being used a lot, according to Brennan, who was in charge of the drone program. But only for a good cause.

His answers satisfied some, Donald Kaul not others. Mainly, the critics wanted to make sure we were Other Words killing people humanely, with full attention to their human rights. We don’t want to be war criminals.

That’s so mid-Twentieth Century. There was a time when people could actually be shocked by the slaughter of civilians during a war.

The most famous example that comes to mind is the bombing of the Spanish town of Guernica by fascist forces during the Spanish Civil War. Guernica was a market town of no particular military importance but it favored the Republican cause during the war. So the infamous Condor Legion, under Hitler’s command, swooped in on a spring day in 1937 and bombed it flat.

The international reaction was immediate and immense. Newspapers all over the world condemned the attack as barbaric and beyond the rules of warfare.

Hundreds of people died in the raid, which Pablo Picasso immortalized in one of the greatest anti-war paintings ever made.

That reaction seems almost quaint in its innocence, given the subsequent events of World War II. By 1945, Hitler had killed thousands more in his rocket attacks on London, destroyed Warsaw, and sent millions to the gas chambers. England had retaliated by leveling Dresden, where 25,000 died. The United States killed 100,000 Japanese in one night of Tokyo firebombing and more than 200,000 by dropping nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Almost all of the dead were civilians.

The United States has bombed dozens of countries since then, all in the name of peace — most dramatically Vietnam and its neighbors, where we used more explosives than we did in all of World War II. And we’re worried whether our reliance on drones adheres to the finer points of bombing ettiquette? We’re missing the larger moral point.

We kid ourselves that our warfare is moral and clean and good and that it’s the other guys who commit the war crimes. Don’t believe it.

Modern warfare is an exercise in savagery.

If you’re not willing to sign up for that, don’t go to war.

Think of napalm, for example, a liquid flame designed to stick to the skin as it burns it away. Or our flechette bombs, fitted with dozens of barbs to tear apart flesh.

Or our landmines scattered across Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, which are still blowing legs off farmers in southeast Asia.

I hearken back to my favorite military philosopher, William Tecumseh Sherman, famous for unapologetically burning down Atlanta during the Civil War. “War is cruelty,” he said. “There is no use trying to reform it. The crueler it is, the sooner it will be over.”

Southerners hate Sherman still, but it can’t be said that he didn’t warn them. In a letter to a friend in the South, written on the eve of the war, he said: “You people of the South don’t know what you are doing. This country will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it will end.

It is all folly, madness, a crime against civilization…War is a terrible thing!”

Then he made it so.

The recent film that best captures that for me is “Zero Dark Thirty,” about Osama bin Laden’s killing.

It’s been criticized for justifying torture as a means of obtaining information from prisoners, but I don’t think it does.

Rather, it shows with unflinching honesty the tactics we are using. And a nasty piece of work they are.

It would be nice if we could have it both ways: be good guys and triumphant. Unfortunately, life ain’t like that.

Believe Sherman — war is Hell.

(Daily Corinthian and OtherWords columnist Donald Kaul lives in Ann Arbor, Mich. OtherWords.org)

Prayer for today Loving God, thank you for your promise that you will be our light. Help us to focus on you in the quiet of our hearts and to return always to rest in you. Amen.

A verse to share Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

— 1 Peter 5:7

Mississippi, public policy and the human condition The current Mississippi Legislature seems to be giving more than passing consideration to legislation with the potential to enhance the human condition than has been the case in the past. The attention is coming from both internal and external influences.

A growing awareness of the social and economic plight of many Mississippi citizens (internal influences) combined with a push from federal mandates (external influences) is serving to make several relevant policy debates unavoidable.

Unfortunately, many of Mississippi’s citizens are entitled to a wide array of monetary benefits from government.

Mississippi has for decades been mired at or near the bottom rung of the personal income ladder.

There are a number of areas that are being considered for major program changes by Mississippi policymakers. Some are necessary to address mandates coming from the federal level while others hold the potential to lift many Mississippi citizens up from the lowest levels and perhaps beyond the need for entitlements. The three general categories that are receiving more attention than ever are education, early childhood issues and health care.

The story is a rather

simple one.

Many Mississippians are entitled by current definitions to a number of Marty federal and Wiseman state benefits by virtue of Stennis Institute their low incomes and related conditions. The embarrassing state of personal health in Mississippi serves to underline the paradoxes of poverty in the state.

Lo and behold, where the mere mention of any bold attempts to change the course of these human conditions by legislation would have been scoffed at in the past as the stuff of a stray liberal interloper, several pertinent measures are hanging around this year for further discussion.

Major changes in education are being discussed. An article in one of the state’s leading newspapers recently talked of how millions of “mid-pay, mid-skilled” jobs have already disappeared.

Additionally, much of today’s high tech innovation is aimed at mass mechanization and the elimination of human labor in favor of astounding new capabilities of computer technology.

The innovators who create the technology will survive as long as they keep pace.

Also, in the legislature is the feverish discussion regarding charter schools, which is also spurring a discussion over how we will maintain and fund traditional public schools.

Perhaps of even greater significance in the realm of human capital development is the first ever serious discussion of pre-kindergarten (Pre-K) education in Mississippi. Bills have been introduced in both house of the Mississippi Legislature to launch the first serious debates on Pre-K programs.

As usual, the issue of funding immediately comes to the fore. However, in a fortuitously timed announcement President Barak Obama launched a national initiative in behalf of universal Pre-K in his State of the Union address. It would indeed be wise to prepare to take seriously the availability of federal largesse to fuel Mississippi’s efforts to join the other 41 states already in the Pre-K business.

Finally, there is the health care issue and the necessity and role of Medicaid and “expanded Medicaid” contained in Obamacare.

There are currently some 600,000 poor, disabled and elderly on the Medicaid rolls in Mississippi.

Expanded Medicaid would take in nearly 300,000 citizens often referred to as the “working poor.” The key is

that the federal government would pay 100 percent of the price tag for expanded Medicaid through 2017 and 90 percent thereafter. The age old clash between the primacy of state authority and perceived federal intervention casts a pall over this debate. The greater reality, however, is found in the discussion over the ultimate share of costs that will be required from Mississippi coffers and the question of whether expansion of cash flow within the health care industry will be sufficient to offset Mississippi’s increased responsibilities.

The good news is that the debates by Mississippi policymakers have begun in all of these areas. The not so good news is that, as always, Mississippi’s limited resources will continue for the time being to relegate many of these initiatives to “pipe dream” status.

Perhaps the most ominous news is that the economic and human capital development train is leaving the station. What will it take from all of us to make sure Mississippi is on board?

(Daily Corinthian columnist Dr. W. Marty Wiseman is professor of political science and director of the John C. Stennis Institute of Government, Mississippi State University. His email address is marty@sig. msstate.edu.)

The faux empiricist ignores his own agency The least-plausible sentence in the English language is “We know this works,” when those words are spoken by President Barack Obama.

He said them the other day in his State of the Union address about early childhood education. President Obama called for universal preschool funded by the federal government in cooperation with the states.

He cited “study after study” showing that investment in Pre-K pays for itself several times over by creating better outcomes for children.

He said this about two months after the release of a devastating report on the ineffectiveness of the federal government’s alreadyexisting $8 billion-a-year Pre-K program, Head Start.

The study was conducted by the Department of Health and Human Services.

Grover Whitehurst of the Brookings Institution calls the study “one of the most ambitious, methodologically rigorous, and expensive federal program evaluations carried out in the last quarter century.”

The HHS study concluded that “there were initial positive impacts from havRich ing access to Lowery Head Start, but by the National Review end of 3rd grade there were very few impacts ... in any of the four domains of cognitive, social-emotional, health and parenting practices. The few impacts that were found did not show a clear pattern of favorable or unfavorable impacts for children.”

In other words, paraphrasing the president, “we know this program does not work.” One would have thought that an elaborate, state-of-the-art study of Head Start would have merited mention in a speech advocating expansion of Head Start-like programs. One would have hoped a brave policy wonk would have piped up in the drafting process and told the president, “Uh, sir, what you are about to say about this issue

is so selective as to verge on an outright lie.”

Instead, the president invoked “study after study” to create an impression of empirical certainty that, at the very least, doesn’t exist. He said the experience of Oklahoma and Georgia with PreK is that it makes it more likely kids will go on to graduate high school, hold jobs and form stable families. Glenn Kessler, the factchecker at The Washington Post, interviewed people close to the Oklahoma and Georgia programs, and they didn’t know what the president was talking about.

Believers in Pre-K usually cite the success of the Perry Preschool Project and the Abecedarian Project, widely heralded early-childhood education programs from the 1960s and the 1970s.

But Whitehurst notes what sets them apart: They were very small, lavishly funded, multiyear programs run by small teams of highly committed experts. The question is whether they can replicate them on a vast scale. The 40-year experience of Head Start, now

serving 1 million children, says “no.”

If the state of the research mattered to the president, he would be cautious rather than audacious in his PreK goals. He would focus on at-risk kids, who have the most to gain from PreK, rather than launching a new universal program. He would want more research on what does and doesn’t work at the state level rather than declaring the question settled for all time. He would support incrementalism rather than a vast expansion on top of a failed Head Start.

But he has an ideological commitment to an expansive government and an unshakable faith in its ability, given enough funding and the right rules and regulations, to overcome any obstacle. So impervious is his point of view to the evidence that even his own Department of Health and Human Services can’t penetrate it.

Nation Briefs Associated Press

Hagel has enough support for defense WASHINGTON — Barring any new, damaging information, Chuck Hagel has secured the necessary votes for the Senate to confirm him to be the nation’s next defense secretary. A vote ending the bitter fight over President Barack Obama’s Cabinet choice is expected next week.

Hagel cleared the threshold when five-term Republican Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama said he would vote for the former two-term GOP senator from Nebraska after joining other Republicans last week in an unprecedented filibuster of the Pentagon nominee.

“He’s probably as good as we’re going to get,” Shelby told the Decatur (Ala.) Daily.

In another boost for Hagel’s nomination, former Republican leader Bob Dole, a decorated World War II veteran, issued a statement Thursday saying, “Hagel’s wisdom and courage make him uniquely qualified to be secretary of defense and lead the men and women of our armed forces. Chuck Hagel will be an exceptional leader at an important time.”

If confirmed, Hagel, a twice-wounded Vietnam combat veteran, would succeed Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who is stepping down after four years first as CIA director and then Pentagon chief.

Although a Republican, Hagel has faced strong GOP opposition, with many of his former colleagues voting last week to stall the nomination.

Republicans have questioned his support for Israel, tolerance of Iran and willingness to cut the nuclear arsenal. His opposition to the Iraq war after his initial vote for the conflict angered his onetime friend, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.

Shelby’s support was a clear sign of weakening Republican opposition, and it prompted two letters within hours from Hagel’s fiercest GOP foes. One letter went to the president calling on him to withdraw the nomination, the other to GOP senators pleading with them to stand together against Hagel.

Fifteen Republicans senators wrote that Hagel lacks the bipartisan support and confidence to serve in the vital job of defense secretary.

“The occupant of this critical office should be someone whose candidacy is neither controver-

sial nor divisive,” wrote the senators — all opponents of Hagel. Leading the effort was Texas Sen. John Cornyn, the party’s No. 2, who is up for re-election next year.

One name missing from the letter was McCain, who has called Hagel unqualified but indicated last Sunday that he wouldn’t stand in the way of a Senate vote.

Private firms take major role vs. cyberattacks WASHINGTON — When Kevin Mandia, a retired military cybercrime investigator, decided to expose China as a primary threat to U.S. computer networks, he didn’t have to consult with American diplomats in Beijing or declassify tactics to safely reveal government secrets.

He pulled together a 76-page report based on seven years of his company’s work and produced the most detailed public account yet of how, he says, the Chinese government has been rummaging through the networks of major U.S. companies.

It wasn’t news to Mandia’s commercial competitors, or the federal government, that systematic attacks could be traced back to a nondescript office building outside Shanghai that he believes was run by the Chinese army. What was remarkable was that the extraordinary details — code names of hackers, one’s affection for Harry Potter and how they stole sensitive trade secrets and passwords — came from a private security company without the official backing of the U.S. military or intelligence agencies that are responsible for protecting the nation from a cyberattack.

The report, embraced by stakeholders in both government and industry, represented a notable alignment of interests in Washington: The Obama administration has pressed for new evidence of Chinese hacking that it can leverage in diplomatic talks — without revealing secrets about its own hacking investigations — and Mandiant makes headlines with its sensational revelations.

The report also shows the balance of power in America’s cyberwar has shifted into the hands of the $30 billion-a-year computer security industry.

“We probably kicked the hornet’s nest,” Mandia, 42, said in an interview at the Alexandria, Va., headquarters of

Mandiant. But “tolerance is just dwindling. People are tired of the status quo of being hacked with impunity, where there’s no risk or repercussion.”

China has disputed Mandiant’s allegations.

Mandiant, which took in some $100 million in business last year — up 60 percent from the year before — is part of a lucrative and exploding market that goes beyond antivirus software and firewalls. These “digital forensics” outfits can tell a business whether its systems have been breached and — if the company pays extra — who attacked it.

Obama may step in on gay marriage case WASHINGTON — Facing heightened expectations from gay rights supporters, the Obama administration is considering urging the Supreme Court to overturn California’s ban on gay marriage — a move that could have a far-reaching impact on same-sex couples across the country.

The administration has one week to file a friendof-the-court brief with the justices outlining its opinion on the California ban, known as Proposition 8. While an administration brief alone is unlikely to sway the high court, the government’s opinion does carry weight with the justices.

Opponents of the Proposition 8 ban believe the president signaled his intention to file a brief when he declared in last month’s inaugural address that gays and lesbians must be “treated like anyone else under the law.”

An administration official said Obama — a former constitutional law professor — was not foreshadowing any legal action in his remarks and was simply restating his personal belief in the right of gays and lesbians to marry, though the official said the administration was considering filing a brief.

The Proposition 8 ballot initiative was approved by California voters in 2008 in response to a state Supreme Court decision that had allowed gay marriage. Twenty-nine other states have constitutional amendments banning gay marriage, while nine states and Washington, D.C., recognize same-sex marriage.

Solicitor General Donald Verrilli is consulting with the White House on the matter, according to a senior administration official, who spoke only on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to address the private deliberations publicly.

Blues man Rush gets lifetime award JACKSON — Blues musician Bobby Rush has received a lifetime achievement award from the Mississippi Arts Commission.

The commission on Thursday hosted the Governor’s Arts Awards ceremony at Belhaven University.

Award recipients have shown achievement in literature, performing and visual arts or community development.

They are: Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Beth Henley, who grew up in Mississippi and lives in Los Angeles; musician Eddie “Chank” Willis of Gore Springs, Miss., a former member of The Funk Brothers; Bay St. Louis Little Theatre; and Kathryn Lewis, a longtime theater director at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College.

Rush is a Louisiana native who has worked in Chicago. He lives in Jackson.

The show was hosted by country singer Marty Stuart, a Mississippi native who’s a five-time Grammy winner.

Vicksburg mayor faces federal charge JACKSON — Vicksburg Mayor Paul Winfield was granted bond Thursday after being arraigned on a federal bribery charge that says he was caught in an FBI investigation while seeking a $10,000 bribe for a city contract.

The 39-year-old Democrat wore an orange jail jumpsuit and shackles during his arraignment in U.S. District Court in Jackson.

Magistrate Judge Keith Ball ordered Winfield to be released on a $10,000 unsecured bond.

Winfield answered the judge’s questions in a strong, clear voice during the brief hearing but did not address the allegations against him. He did not enter a plea.

After the hearing, Winfield’s lawyer, John Colette, said the case at this point is just an allegation made by an FBI agent at this point but it’s too early to comment on the specific allegations.

Colette said Winfield has no intention of resigning.

“It’s a tough situation, but I think he’s handling it well,” Colette said.

Winfield is completing his first term as mayor of the historic Mississippi River city, the site of a pivotal Civil War battle. He recently qualified to seek re-election.

The criminal complaint says a confidential FBI informant called Winfield on

July 17, 2012, to discuss “pre-event disaster contracts” with the city.

It says the two met at a Jackson restaurant the next day, and the informant asked Winfield what it would take to get the contract.

“Winfield responded ‘Ten’ and held up 10 fingers, signifying $10,000,” the complaint says.

Winfield agreed to take half the money up front and the rest after the contract was awarded, according to the complaint. The complaint says the source paid Winfield $5,000 in hundred dollar bills that had been provided by the FBI.

Still uncertainties in casino money fight CLARKSDALE — Coahoma County has appealed a judge’s order that it return to the city of Clarksdale about $62,000 collected in casino taxes.

The Clarksdale Press Register reports that the county filed the appeal Feb. 15, asking Circuit Judge Johnnie Walls to reverse his decision.

In court documents, county attorney Tom Ross argues that Walls ruled not on a county action to stop casino payments but an inaction by the board of supervisors. Ross said Walls has no authority to dictate to the county or to force the county to pay the money back. Ross says Walls appeared to simply adopt what the city of Clarksdale said was true.

The city will have a chance to respond to the county’s appeal.

Earlier this month, Walls ruled the county’s actions were in retaliation for Clarksdale refusing to negotiate over the annexation issue. Walls gave the county 30 days to comply.

Last May, the county began withholding the monthly payments to the city from casino tax collections. It continued paying

the towns of Lula, Lyon and Coahoma. The county has one casino, the Isle of Capri.

Voter ID dispute snags state office’s budget JACKSON — Mississippi senators rejected the secretary of state’s budget Thursday amid an argument about paying lawyers to defend a proposed voter identification law.

It’s probably a temporary setback.

Appropriations Chairman Eugene “Buck” Clarke says he’ll bring the budget bill back up next week and he expects it to pass when attendance is better.

Several senators didn’t vote Thursday.

Mississippi needs federal approval for any election changes, and a voter ID proposal was submitted to the Justice Department months ago. If it’s rejected there, Republicans want to ask federal judges in Washington, D.C., to approve it.

Senate Bill 2901 says the secretary of state could spend up to $695,000 for voter ID litigation during the year that starts July 1.

If the budget bill passes the Senate, it goes to the House.

Student arrested with gun at school VICKSBURG — A teenager charged with bringing a handgun to Vicksburg High School has been released from jail on a $15,000 bond.

Police Lt. Sandra Williams tells the Vicksburg Post that the 17-yearold was released Thursday morning.

The teen was arrested Wednesday after school officials were tipped off that he had brought a handgun to school. Williams says the youth has been charged with one count of possessing a weapon on school property.

NTSB: Plane aborted landing, hit utility pole

BY RUSS BYNUM Associated Press

THOMSON, Ga. — A small private jet carrying a surgeon and members of his clinic staff aborted its landing at a Georgia airport before it hit a 60-foot utility pole and crashed in a flaming wreck, killing five people onboard and injuring two, federal authorities said Thursday.

National Transportation Safety Board member Robert Sumwalt said fuel leaking from the plane ignited in flames Wednesday night after it hit the concrete pole with enough force to sheer off the left wing. He said investigators found pieces of the plane strewn over 100 yards. “The wreckage was severely fragmented, and it is almost completely destroyed by fire,� Sumwalt

said at a news conference Thursday afternoon. “...

You walk up and you say to yourself, ‘Where is the airplane?�’ Investigators don’t yet know why the plane aborted its landing at Thomson-McDuffie Regional Airport, a small terminal with a 5,500foot runway about 30 miles west of Augusta.

Sumwalt said investigators would interview air-traffic controllers to see if the pilots made a distress call and search for a flight-data recorder from the plane that might yield clues. He also said authorities had obtained video from a security camera at the airport but had not yet reviewed it.

The Hawker Beechcraft 390/ Premier I, a small business jet that seats two pilots and six

passengers, was carrying five staff members of the Vein Guys clinic of vascular medicine specialists in Augusta, said Dr. Stephen Davis, a plastic surgeon who works for an affiliated Vein Guys clinic in Nashville.

Davis said those on board were: Dr. Steven Roth, two ultrasound technicians, a nurse anesthetist and a secretary. He said Roth regularly flew to Vein Guys clinics in the region, though other doctors working for the clinic did not travel. Davis said his brother, Dr. Keith Davis, and Roth co-founded the Augusta clinic. He described Roth as “a great guy, a great doctor, devoted to patients and his family.�

Investigators said two pilots were also aboard the plane in addition to

the clinic employees.

Thomson-McDuffie County Sheriff Logan Marshall said two survivors were taken to hospitals. Richard Trammell was in critical condition at Georgia Regents Medical Center in Augusta, hospital spokeswoman Christen Carter said. The condition of the other survivor, and where that person was taken, is not known.

Georgia Bureau of Investigation spokesman John Bankhead said the five dead were taken to an agency lab in Decatur for autopsies. They have not been identified.

The crash started a brush fire in the woods behind an industrial plant near the airport. Witnesses reported power outages in the area as well.

The private jet had been

flying fairly frequently from the Thomson airport during the past several months, said Keith Bounds, the airport’s general manager. “The pilots were familiar with the facility, familiar with the area and familiar with the runway,�

Bounds said. “And the airplane was immaculate.

The pilots kept it in pristine condition.�

The pilots had sent an electronic message to close out their flight plan before the jet overshot the runway — a sign that they began their landing approach without problems, Bounds said. Skies in the area were clear Wednesday night with light wind, he said.

There was no damage or other physical signs that the jet ever touched down on the runway, Bounds

said. The plane crossed a five-lane state highway near Interstate 20 before it struck the utility pole about a quarter-mile from the end of the runway.

Patricia Reese and her husband live in a farmhouse near the site. She said they were watching TV on Wednesday night when they were startled by noise and a power outage. “The lights blinked and went off, and all of a sudden we heard this noise,�

Reece said. “It sounded like thunder that just kept going on and on.�

Reece’s husband grabbed a flashlight and they headed into the pitch-dark field behind their home. They soon saw flashing lights from emergency vehicles and thick smoke pouring from the woods, she said.

Washington vows to keep pot Mississippi State researcher contained to state — but how? studies video games’ effect that actively regulating an illegal substance conflicts with federal drug law.

The DOJ is reviewing the laws but has given no signals about its plans.

It has never sued states like Colorado that have regulated medical marijuana, even though it could under the same legal principles.

Part of the DOJ’s political calculus in deciding whether to sue is likely to be how well the department believes the two states can keep the legal weed within their borders. During a meeting with Inslee last week, Holder asked a lot of questions about diversion, Inslee said.

Alison Holcomb, who led Washington’s legal pot campaign, said it’s important to respect states that haven’t legalized weed by not flooding their black markets.

The first step, she said, is for the state to figure out how much pot should be produced, and then grant licenses accordingly. “Excess supply creates incentive to divert outside the state,� she said.

Washington’s Liquor Control Board is planning a comprehensive survey to estimate how much marijuana is consumed in the state.

Inslee has boasted about the effectiveness of the State Patrol’s highway interdiction program in stopping drug trafficking.

Traditional police work, combined with inventory controls, will be key to clamping down on diversion, he said.

months.

The potential of regulatory schemes to keep pot from being diverted isn’t clear. Colorado already has intensive rules aimed at keeping its medical marijuana market in line, including the digital tracking of cannabis, bar codes on every plant, surveillance video and manifests of all legal pot shipments.

But law enforcement officials say marijuana from Colorado’s dispensaries often makes its way to the black market, and even the head of the Colorado agency charged with tracking the medical pot industry suggests no one should copy its measures.

The agency has been beset by money woes and had to cut many of its investigators. Even if the agency had all the money it wanted, the state’s medical pot rules are “a model of regulatory overreach,� too cumbersome and expensive to enforce, Laura Harris said in a statement.

Last fall, voters made Washington and Colorado the first states to pass laws legalizing the recreational use of marijuana and setting up systems of state-licensed growers, processors and retail stores where adults over 21 can walk in and buy up to an ounce of heavily taxed cannabis.

Both states are working to develop rules for the emerging pot industry.

The Obama administration could sue to block the legal markets from operating, on the grounds

BY GENE JOHNSON Associated Press

SEATTLE — So far, no one is suggesting checkpoints or fences to keep Washington state’s legal pot within its borders.

But Gov. Jay Inslee insists there are ways to prevent the bulk smuggling of the state’s newest cash crop into the black market, including digitally tracking weed to ensure that it goes from where it is grown to the stores where it is sold.

With sales set to begin later this year, he hopes to be a good neighbor and keep vanloads of premium, legal bud from cruising into Idaho, Oregon and other states that don’t want people getting stoned for fun.

It’s not just about generating goodwill with fellow governors. Inslee is trying to persuade U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder not to sue to block Washington from licensing pot growers, processors and sellers. Marijuana remains illegal under federal law. “I am going to be personally committed to have a well regulated, well disciplined, well tracked, well inventorycontrolled, well law-enforcement-coordinated approach,� said Inslee, who is due to give Holder more details this week.

Keeping a lid on the weed is just one of the numerous challenges Washington state authorities and their counterparts in Colorado — where voters also legalized pot use — will face in the coming

STARKVILLE — Do violent media incite aggressive behavior? Or, are media merely illustrating a violent culture already in place?

While recent mass shootings have many people in this and other countries asking this chicken-versus-egg-type question, a media psychology researcher at Mississippi State University continues to explore the relationship between violent media and the public.

Kevin D. Williams, an associate professor in the communication department, had a recent study featured in the January edition of Mass Communication and Society, a top peer-reviewed journal in communication research.

Williams’ investigation sought to determine whether video gamers’ feelings of hostility in-

Tennessee State Trooper Brad Simpson discovered more than 140 dogs crammed into crates, sometimes four animals to a crate, with most of the animals covered in feces and urine. One dog was dead, and others were bleeding and suffering from skin lesions.

that’s on the low end of the scale,� he explained.

In other words, a hostility score of 5 or 6 on a 20-point range is quite low. However, study participants gaming with motion-based controllers did experience demonstrably stronger feelings of hostility as opposed to players using traditional controllers.

Williams said he thinks this increase in hostile feelings could well be short-lived, which is why he cautioned people, especially parents, to remember that the study only asked subjects to rate feelings of hostility on a 1-to-5 scale and was not an examination of violent acts. “People assume that we’re measuring behavior, but hostility is an emotional reaction -- an anger response,� he said. “This has nothing to do with actual behavior.

DVM volunteered her time and services in the treatment of the 140 dogs and testified in the case. Bonnie Sheehan pled guilty to 14 counts of cruelty on July 19, 2012.

She received two years of probation, a $500 fine and was prohibited from owning animals for two years.

In another case, on Sept. 17, 2012, Fayette County Animal Rescue Officers and local caregivers investigated a complaint of possible child

and animal abuse.

Officers found 168 live animals, including dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, birds, rabbits and guinea pigs, housed in cages covered in feces and urine.

Over 20 dead animals were found in the home.

The animals were removed and placed under the care of Dr. Jennifer Dunlap.

The defendants, William and Rocio Parr, were charged with 168 counts of animal cruelty and two counts of child abuse.

creased relative to the type of gaming controllers they used.

He found that gamers using motion-based controllers -- the Wii remote or the Wii nunchuck, for example -- have more hostile feelings immediately following gameplay compared to players using classic controllers. Also, gamers using motionbased controllers had higher heart rates and systolic blood pressures after gameplay.

Williams’ study, “The Effects of Video Game Controls on Hostility, Identification and Presence,� showed gamers reported increased feelings of hostility, but only by a small amount. “The highest hostility score you could get in this study was a 20, but the difference between the groups was a 1.25-point difference from 5 to 6, and

Mergers on the rise Mixing things up Since November, U.S.

Companies are buying each other at the fastest pace since before the Great Recession. The latest deal came Wednesday when office-supply retailers Office Depot and OfficeMax agreed to combine in an all-stock deal worth $1.2 billion.

One of the reasons activity is picking up is that interest rates are near record lows, making financing cheap. Companies are also sitting on piles of cash.

Those in the Standard and Poor’s 500 index hold nearly $1 trillion on their books. Also, after years of slashing expenses and squeezing more work out of remaining staff, companies are struggling to grow earnings.

So far this year, deals worth a total $225 billion have been announced. That’s more than double the level over the same period last year, according to Dealogic. It’s slightly behind the same period in 2007, which is notable because that turned into a record year as the value of deals climbed to $1.6 trillion.

companies have announced a dozen purchases worth $3 billion or more in mining, food, technology, airlines and other industries. value in billions

Contract questions HMS Holdings reports its earnings for the fourth quarter today.

Investors will be listening for an update on the status of a key government contract. Last fall, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services awarded a contract to HMS to coordinate benefits and to ensure that Medicare is only paying when it is the primary form of coverage. But a rival for the contract has filed an appeal protesting the decision.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Civil rights icon James Meredith, the first African-American student to attend the University of Mississippi, is visiting the Crossroads area this week for a series of presentations.

See staff writer Bobby J. Smith’s story coming this week.

Fraud investigator mortified by his wife’s arrest for fraud DEAR ABBY: My wife of six years was recently arrested for wire fraud, involving the receipt of unemployment benefits. She was receiving money when she should not have been. I knew she had applied for benefits since she was laid off; however, I was not aware that she was falsifying documents in order to receive the benefits.

I feel hurt, betrayed and offended. I am a retired law enforcement officer and currently an independent fraud investigator. Our relationship had been on the rocks for some time prior to this humiliating event. How do I handle this mess? — BETRAYED IN FLORIDA DEAR BETRAYED: The first thing to do is realize that your wife’s indiscretions are a reflection only on her character, not yours. Then let the law take its course, and once you have cooled off, decide rationally if you want to continue a marriage that has been “on the rocks for some time.”

DEAR ABBY: Before my daughter turned 18, she followed the court’s visitation specifics, as her brother does. Now that she’s 18, she doesn’t call or come over at all. She won’t answer phone calls, so I text her.

She’ll respond with one-word answers -- “yes,” “no,” “maybe.”

It doesn’t bother me that she chooses to live this way. She’s an adult. I sent her money for her birthday. She didn’t ac-

knowledge it.

If I text invitations to her, I still don’t hear from her.

S h e doesn’t go Abigail to college, drive, Van Buren doesn’t doesn’t have a job and Dear Abby lives off her enabling mother. According to her brother, she plays video games all night and sleeps all day.

After her birthday silence, should I continue sending her money for occasions? The lack of respect makes me think not, but my love for her says I should.

Is there a lesson to be taught, or do I continue dropping a check in the mail twice a year? The money is insignificant. Learning respect, I believe, is important.

— DAD IN BATTLE CREEK, MICH. DEAR DAD: It doesn’t bother you that your daughter chooses to live this way? That she doesn’t work, doesn’t go to school, plays video games all night and sleeps all day? Is she on drugs? Suffering from severe depression?

Your daughter’s behavior is not normal. You have described a young woman in serious need of counseling to bring her back to reality. If you love your daughter, forget the etiquette lesson and help her to get the psycho-

logical help she needs.

DEAR ABBY: When I was 17, I was checked into a psychiatric hospital for severe depression and a suicide attempt. While I was there I met “Jim,” a boy who was there for the same reasons. To make a long story short, we kept in touch and now we’re dating.

We benefitted from the experience and are good for each other.

The catch is that he lives more than an hour away from me.

We see each other frequently, but friends often ask how we met and we don’t know how to answer the question. Generally, we say something vague about how we have known each other for a long time, but some people continue to press. Neither of us wants to advertise that we spent time in a psych ward. How can we gracefully sidestep the question? — DODGING THE QUESTION IN THE U.S.A. DEAR DODGING: It is difficult to sidestep a question that is asked so frequently in the course of conversation -- especially if a couple seems compatible. Because you would rather not be specific, just say you met in a teen counseling group a few years ago. It’s the truth — you were being counseled.

(Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

Horoscopes

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Your subconscious will work overtime to help you sort out the facts and feelings of the day.

Tonight, your dreams will reflect the unusual circumstances going on in your life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It is not a bad thing to owe a debt.

Regardless of the type of debt you owe, it can keep you going, working and trying on a level that you wouldn’t if you didn’t have something to pay back.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You have so much in common with the one you meet today that it will seem as if you are destined to know each other. A short conversation reveals the many interests, associations and experiences you share.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Do you really need a reason to celebrate? The sequence of events that had to occur for any of us to come into being is so highly improbable that we might

consider being amazed that we exist at all.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Today will go by quickly, but it is long enough for you to accomplish amazing things. For instance, you’ll make someone happy, share a meal, affirm a relationship and wonder deeply.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

When something is going on with you emotionally, your body soon adopts a sympathetic pain.

So address the emotional need now, and you’ll keep the physical one from manifesting.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Try not to be so uptight about the schedule. Nothing is set in stone. Whether you’re prompt, late or early, it will all work out.

A relaxed, cheerful tone is the most important thing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You have every right to take up space, so use it and use it well.

And if you can manage to be graceful in the process, you’ll be not only effective, but also a de-

light to behold.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You may reach the end of a commitment and still feel a lingering attachment. Cut the emotional strings. Once you’ve paid a debt in full, it’s over. Leave the baggage behind you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have yet to tap into the full range of what your community has to offer your latest endeavor. There may be a professional organization that can help you reach your goal.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You don’t always have to know what to do, but it helps if you at least know what not to do.

There’s no point to going into a situation completely blind. Ask for guidelines.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

What you memorize may inform you, but what you learn on your own through experience will transform you. So get your hands dirty today. Throw yourself into the process.

In fact-based films, how much fiction is OK?

BY JOCELYN NOVECK Associated Press

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The scene: Tehranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mehrabad airport, January 1980. Six U.S. diplomats, disguised as a fake sci-fi film crew, are about to fly to freedom with their CIA escorts. But suddenly thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a moment of panic in what had been a smooth trip through the airport.

The plane has mechanical difficulties and will be delayed. Will the Americans be discovered, arrested, even killed? CIA officer Tony Mendez, also in disguise, tries to calm them. Luckily, the flight leaves about an hour later.

If you saw the film â&#x20AC;&#x153;Argo,â&#x20AC;? no, you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t miss this development, which is recounted in Mendezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book about the real-life operation. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because director Ben Affleck and screenwriter Chris Terrio replaced it with an even more dramatic scenario, involving canceled flight reservations, suspicious Iranian officials who call the Hollywood office of the fake film crew (a call answered just in time), and finally a heart-pounding chase on the tarmac just as the planeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheels lift off, seconds away from catastrophe.

Crackling filmmaking â&#x20AC;&#x201D; except that it never happened. Affleck and Terrio, whose film is an Oscar frontrunner, never claimed their film was a documentary, of course.

But still, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve caught some flak for the liberties they took in the name of

entertainment.

And they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t alone â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two other high-profile best-picture nominees this year, Kathryn Bigelowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zero Dark Thirtyâ&#x20AC;? and Steven Spielbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincoln,â&#x20AC;? have also been criticized for different sorts of factual issues.

Filmmakers have been making movies based on real events forever, and similar charges have been made. But because three fact-based films are in contention, the issue has come to the forefront of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Oscar race, and with it a thorny cultural question: Does the audience deserve the truth, the whole truth and nothing but? Surely not, but just how much fiction is OK? The latest episode involved â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincoln,â&#x20AC;? and the revelation that Spielberg and his screenwriter, the Pulitzer-winning playwright Tony Kushner, took liberties depicting the 1865 vote on the 13th amendment outlawing slavery. In response to a complaint by a Connecticut congressman, Kushner acknowledged heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d changed the details, having two Connecticut congressmen vote against the amendment when, in fact, all four voted for it.

In a statement, Kushner said he had â&#x20AC;&#x153;adhered to time-honored and completely legitimate standards for the creation of historical drama, which is what â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Lincolnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is.

I hope nobody is shocked to learn that I also made up dialogue and imagined encounters and invented characters.â&#x20AC;?

His answer wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t satisfying to everyone. New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd called on Spielberg this weekend to adjust the DVD version before itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s released â&#x20AC;&#x201D; lest the film leave â&#x20AC;&#x153;students everywhere thinking the Nutmeg State is nutty.â&#x20AC;?

One prominent screenwriting professor finds the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincolnâ&#x20AC;? episode â&#x20AC;&#x153;a little troublingâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but only a little. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe changing the vote went too far,â&#x20AC;? says Richard Walter, chairman of screenwriting at the University of California, Los Angeles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe there was another way to do it. But really, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not terribly important. People accept that liberties will be taken. A movie is a movie. People going for a history lesson are going to the wrong place.â&#x20AC;?

Walter says he always tells his students: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go for the feelings. Because the only thing thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s truly real in the movies are the feelings that people feel when they watch.â&#x20AC;?

Carson Reeves, who runs an influential screenwriting website called Scriptshadow, says writers basing scripts on real events face a constant problem: No subject or individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life is compelling and dramatic enough by itself, he says, that it neatly fits into a script with three acts, subplots, plot twists and a powerful villain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You just have to get rid of things that maybe would have made the story more truthful,â&#x20AC;? says Reeves, who actually gave the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincolnâ&#x20AC;? script a

negative review because he thought it was too heavy on conversation and lacking action. He adds, though, that when the subject is as famous as Abraham Lincoln, one has a responsibility to be more faithful to the facts.

Screenwriter Dan Futterman, nominated for an Oscar in 2006 for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Capote,â&#x20AC;? has empathy for any screenwriter trying to write an effective script based on real events, as he did. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is fraught territory,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always going to have to change something, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always going to get in some sort of trouble, with somebody,â&#x20AC;? he says.

Futterman recalls seeing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincolnâ&#x20AC;? and wondering briefly why Connecticut would have voted the way the movie depicted it. On the other hand, he says, he has so much admiration for Kushnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievement in writing an exciting movie about 19th-century legislative history that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inclined to overlook the alteration.

Futterman also doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begrudge the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Argoâ&#x20AC;? filmmakers, because he feels they use a directorial style that implies some fun is being had with the story. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the inside joking about Hollywood â&#x20AC;&#x201D; tonally, you get a sense that something is being played with,â&#x20AC;? he says.

He recalls his own object lesson in the difficulty of writing about real people and events: In â&#x20AC;&#x153;Capote,â&#x20AC;? he combined three of Truman Capoteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s editors into one, for the sake of the narrative. He ended

up hearing from the son of New Yorker editor William Shawn, actor Wallace Shawn, who wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t totally pleased with the portrayal of his father.

Futterman says he was sympathetic to those concerns and would certainly have addressed them in the script, had he anticipated them.

Of the three Oscarnominated films in question, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zero Dark Thirtyâ&#x20AC;? has inspired the most fervent debate. The most intense criticism, despite acclaim for the filmmaking craft involved, has been about its depictions of interrogations, with some, including a group of senators, saying the film misleads viewers for suggesting that torture provided information that helped the CIA find Osama bin Laden.

There also have been questions about the accuracy of the depiction of the main character, a CIA officer played by Jessica Chastain; the real person â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or combination of people, according to some theories â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that she plays remains anonymous.

Mark Boal, the movieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s screenwriter, said in a recent interview that screenwriters have a double responsibility: to the material and to the audience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a responsibility, I believe, to the audience, because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re paying money, and to tell a good story,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a responsibility to be respectful of the material.â&#x20AC;?

In a later interview with the Wall Street Journal,

he added: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my right, by the way, if I firmly believe that (Osama) bin Laden was killed by aliens, to depict that. ...

In this country, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that legit?â&#x20AC;?

The debate over â&#x20AC;&#x153;Argoâ&#x20AC;? has been much less intense, though there has been some grumbling from former officials in Britain and New Zealand that their countries were portrayed incorrectly in the film as offering no help at all to the six Americans, whereas actually, as Mendez writes in his book, they did provide some help.

And as for the Canadians, the Toronto Star detailed late last year how Affleck (who also stars as Mendez) agreed to adjust the postscript to his film to more generously credit Canada and its ambassador at the time, Ken Taylor, who protected the Americans at great personal risk.

To Walter, the screenwriting professor, keeping track of all the historical details is a losing battle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I am hungry and crave a tuna fish sandwich, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to a hardware store.â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I seek a history lesson, I do not go to a movie theater. I loved â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Argoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; even though I know there was no lastminute turn-around via a phone call from President Carter, nor were there Iranian police cars chasing the plane down the tarmac as it took off.

So what? These conceits simply make the movie more exciting.â&#x20AC;?

Climate contradiction: Less snow, more blizzards

BY SETH BORENSTEIN Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; With scant snowfall and barren ski slopes in parts of the Midwest and Northeast the past couple of years, some scientists have pointed to global warming as the culprit.

Then when a whopper of a blizzard smacked the Northeast with more than 2 feet of snow in some places earlier this month, some of the same people again blamed global warming.

How can that be? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a joke among skeptics, pointing to what seems to be a brazen contradiction.

But the answer lies in atmospheric physics. A warmer atmosphere can hold, and dump, more moisture, snow experts say. And two soon-to-bepublished studies dem-

onstrate how there can be more giant blizzards yet less snow overall each year. Projections are that thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely to continue with man-made global warming.

Consider: â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The United States has been walloped by twice as many of the most extreme snowstorms in the past 50 years than in the previous 60 years, according to an upcoming study on extreme weather by leading federal and university climate scientists. This also fits with a dramatic upward trend in extreme winter precipitation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both rain and snow â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in the Northeastern U.S. charted by the National Climatic Data Center. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Yet the Global Snow Lab at Rutgers University says that spring snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere has shrunk on av-

erage by 1 million square miles in the last 45 years. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; And an upcoming study in the Journal of Climate says computer models predict annual global snowfall to shrink by more than a foot in the next 50 years. The studyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s author said most people live in parts of the United States that are likely to see annual snowfall drop between 30 and 70 percent by the end of the century. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shorter snow season, less snow overall, but the occasional knockout punch,â&#x20AC;? Princeton University climate scientist Michael Oppenheimer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the new world we live in.â&#x20AC;?

Ten climate scientists say the idea of less snow and more blizzards makes sense: A warmer world is likely to decrease the overall amount of snow

falling each year and shrink snow season. But when it is cold enough for a snowstorm to hit, the slightly warmer air is often carrying more moisture, producing potentially historic blizzards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Strong snowstorms thrive on the ragged edge of temperature â&#x20AC;&#x201D; warm enough for the air to hold lots of moisture, meaning lots of precipitation, but just cold enough for it to fall as snow,â&#x20AC;? said Mark Serreze, director of the National Snow and Ice Data Center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Increasingly, it seems that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on that ragged edge.â&#x20AC;?

Just look at the last few years in the Northeast. Or take Chicago, which until late January had 335 days without more than an inch of snow. Both have been hit with historic storms in recent years.

Scientists wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t blame

a specific event or even a specific seasonal change on global warming without doing intricate and time-consuming studies.

And they say they are just now getting a better picture of the complex intersection of man-made cli-

mate change and extreme snowfall.

But when Serreze, Oppenheimer and others look at the last few years of less snow overall, punctuated by big storms, they say this is what they are expecting in the future.

Lions surge to quarter-finals

BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com

INGOMAR — An 11-point lead started the game, the Lions dominating the Ingomar Falcons from the opening tip en route to a 70-62 win Thursday.

Those 11-points would be the largest lead by ei-

ther team during the game, as the Falcons punched in 7-points on the arms of Devonte Williamson, Henry Foster and a 3-pointer by Alex Teter for a 17-11 scoreboard at the halfway mark of the first quarter.

Biggersville pushed ahead from a 23-18 lead to close

out the first eight minutes, but the scares kept on coming as Ingomar again cut into the Lions’ lead with only a one-point difference with 60 seconds to go in the first half.

Darian Barnett, Jaylon Gaines and Tyran Davis were the difference mak-

ers for BHS as they entered half-time with a 36-33 lead over Ingomar.

Barnett and Davis each converted in the paint, while Gaines stripped a free-throw with 10 seconds remaining on the clock.

Warriors roll into North 4A semifinals

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth has lost just three home games since the start of the 2008-2009 season.

New Albany only managed that many offensive rebounds in the first of four Class 4A Boys North Half Tournament games Thursday at Corinth High School.

Raheem Sorrell scored a game-high 18 points and pulled down 12 rebounds as Corinth moved to within one win of a third straight berth in the State Tournament with a 64-38 win over New Albany.

Corinth (25-6) will face

Noxubee County (16-13) tonight at 6 in the first semifinal contest. The Tigers beat Lafayette County 55-52 in the second quarterfinal match.

The winners between Rosa Fort-Shannon and Amanda Elzy-Houston will meet in the other semifinal bout.

New Albany (16-14) led 4-2 in the early going but had no answer for Sorrell.

The junior scored 10 points in the first as Corinth shot 9-of-13 from the field in taking a 21-15 lead after one period.

Corinth committed 12 turnovers in the opening half and New Albany

stayed in the game for awhile by converting those into points. A 5-0 run to open the second pulled the Dawgs to within 21-19.

The Warriors outscored the Bulldogs 16-4 the final 6:23 of the half. Darius Gaines knocked down a pair of jumpers, while Sorrell and Terrel Payton dominated in the paint with two buckets each.

Sorrell nearly had a double-double at the break with 14 points -- on 7-for7 shooting -- and nine boards. Corinth was 16-of27 in the opening half, and recorded rebounds on eight of the 11 misses. The eight own boards resulted in 10

second-chance points and helped extend the lead to 37-23 at intermission.

Corinth then used its outside game to balloon the lead to 21 twice in the first five minutes of the third quarter. Jazz Garner, who added 10 points to go along with six assists, sandwiched three-pointers around a long-distance rip from Desmin Harris.

Freshman Adrian Gwyn scored the final two buckets in a 9-0 quarter-closing run to push the lead out to 27 at the end of three.

New Albany didn’t record its first offensive rebound Please see WARRIORS | 13A

Wednesday SEC: Ole Miss falls on road Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Down by six with five minutes left, South Carolina found something that has been missing during a six-game losing streak — confidence.

The Gamecocks (13-13, 3-10 Southeastern Conference) held Mississippi (19-7, 8-5) without a point in the last five minutes, and Eric Smith’s 3-pointer with 25.1 seconds to go let South Carolina climb out of last place in the SEC with a 63-62 win over the Rebels.

“I finally saw the team that we had four weeks ago try and play again,” South Carolina coach Frank Martin said.

“I feel good for our kids be-

cause they have been in the grinder here for three weeks and league play is unforgiving.”

The Rebels missed their final seven shots in a devastating loss for their NCAA tournament hopes. Ole Miss has lost five of its last seven games since starting the season 17-2.

“This certainly hurts us.

We know that. Thank goodness the NCAA tournament is not selected tomorrow. So we’ve got opportunities to try to improve,” Mississippi coach Andy Kennedy said.

The Gamecocks held Marshall Henderson to 11 points, well below his SEC-leading average of 19.7 points a game.

He shot just 4-of-17 from the field and made just three of his 11 3-point attempts.

“Sometimes we try to make things a little more complicated than they are,” said Kennedy, who missed an opportunity to become Ole Miss’ all-time winningest coach. “The SEC’s leading scorer can’t go 4-of-17 and you expect to win on the road.”

Martin told his team they needed to play with confidence if they wanted to win again. Things looked good, as the Gamecocks took their biggest lead of the game, 5449, with 9:42 left. But the Rebels went on a 13-2 run to lead 62-56 with 5:04 remain-

ing on a basket by Murphy Holloway. The senior from a suburb of Columbia, who transferred to South Carolina and then went back to Mississippi without playing a game, led all scorers with 19 points and had 13 rebounds.

During the six-game losing streak, Martin said his players have been mostly silent in late-game huddles. But Bruce Ellington spoke up and said they couldn’t let this one get away. Other players chimed in, and the Gamecocks clamped down on defense.

Wednesday SEC: Bulldogs drop 11th straight Associated Press

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama’s Rodney Cooper turned back a Mississippi State surge with a 3-pointer and Trevor Releford helped put the Bulldogs away after that.

Cooper had 20 points and 10 rebounds and Releford scored six of his 17 in the final 3 minutes to lift streaking Alabama to a 64-56 victory over Mississippi State on Wednesday night.

Sparked by Cooper and Releford, the Crimson Tide (18-8, 10-3 Southeastern Conference) finished a lackluster second half strong to claim its fourth straight victory.

“I thought (Cooper) brought the energy and the passion that we needed, some big plays and big rebounds, that allowed us to have a chance to win,” Tide coach Anthony Grant said.

“Trevor’s energy, especially in the second half, from a defensive standpoint he locked in and brought energy to our team and made some plays down the stretch that allowed us to preserve the win.”

It was a game Alabama probably couldn’t afford to lose in its late bid to make the NCAA tournament.

The Tide also closed the gap on SEC-leading Florida (11-2) after the fifth-ranked

Gators lost to Missouri Tuesday night.

The Bulldogs (7-18, 2-11) cut a 13-point second-half deficit to four points before losing their 11th consecutive game to match the 1982 team for the second-longest skid in program history.

Cooper was 7-of-10 shooting for his first career double-double — scoring 15 after halftime. Releford had five assists and five of the Tide’s 18 steals. Trevor Lacey added 11 points before fouling out.

Mississippi State’s Jalen Steele returned from a three-game suspension for violating team rules to fuel the comeback attempt and

score 15 points.

Colin Borchert had 14 points and nine rebounds for Mississippi State, which committed 23 turnovers.

Craig Sword was held to six points after scoring 25 against LSU. Bulldogs coach Rick Ray at least found a positive in his team’s effort after enduring some blowouts during this stretch.

“I’m really pleased with the way our guys came out and competed,” Ray said.

“When you’re in the situation like we are, losing (10) straight games, guys suspended, guys with injuries Please see BULLDOGS | 13A

The Lions opened the second half with a 4-0 run, their 7-point lead reduced to four on a 3-point shot from Foster.

Daniel Simmons nailed one from beyond the arch in response, pushing the Lions towards an 11-point third quarter and a 47-39 score.

Ingomar opened the final period on a string of free-throws, Laquon Foster draining 4 of 6 attempts and place the Falcons within four points of a tie with Biggersville.

An 8-0 run by the Lions brought the final quarter to its halfway mark, Foster again shooting at the arch to hack into the ten-point advantage.

Biggersville controlled the next three minutes of play, Ingomar stripping the net with yet another 3-pointer to advance to a 65-60 score with 1:08 on the play clock.

Free-throws sealed the game up for BHS in its final seconds with three different Lions shooting 5 of 6 attempts to wrap up the win.

Finding joy in the art of sewing Every day is a gift “The only place where housework comes before needlework is in the dictionary,” Mary Kurtz is quoted as saying. I agree with her!

There are so many things I need to be doing in my house, but instead I have been sewing this week. I love to sew but I “take it by spells,” and as I told a store clerk yesterday as she measured and cut lace, I’m having one of my spells. I’ve been playing with colorful fabrics to see what I come up with.

Someone has said that sewing is a lost art, and for a while I was beginning to believe that. I found, however, that I was living a sheltered life and just didn’t know the truth. Last year when I finally found time to shop again in fabric stores and

quilting shops, I realized there are still many seamstresses out there, as well as quilters and home décor designers.

It thrills me to see y o u n g Lora Ann w o m e n Huff shopping for mateBack Porch rial for children’s clothes — some to sell and some for their own kids. … And the handmade items stitched at home are usually put together in a much better way than those fashioned in other countries and shipped to America.

Our local specialty quilting store is a favorite of mine. The rows and rows of color-coordinat-

ed cotton material just set my heart aflutter, and when I’m in a depressed mood or need a little boost, I stop by the shop for therapy — regardless of whether or not I make a purchase. I feel better just walking through the store, browsing through the newest arrivals, and seeing the latest display of quilts.

I know I currently don’t have the patience to tackle making a quilt, but the same cotton fabrics can be used to make adorable clothes for children — and adults — and almost any other cloth project you can think of.

Recently I was looking at a little girl’s gorgeous cotton dress with a designer label and was so disappointed when I saw the other tag which read “Made in China.”

I know the high dollar price the mother paid for the small dress, and I know the seamstress in China got nothing close to that amount for her tedious work. What a shame!

This time of year is such a good time to pull out the sewing machine and go check out the spring colors and soft fabrics for play clothes and Easter outfits. … And if you’ve never learned to sew, it’s not too late to start. You can take “lessons” or you can even teach yourself — and the housework will still be there when you find time to do it.

After prayer, elderly couple die together CNHI News Service

After 63 years of marriage, a Kokomo, Ind., couple passed away of natural causes Feb. 15 within minutes of each other after praying God would allow them to die together.

The couple said they didn’t want to live without each other after months of suffering from deteriorating health.

Funeral services for Earle Howard, 86, and Lou Nell Howard, 82, were held Tuesday at First Church of the Nazarene, where a crowd gathered to commemorate the couple and hear what Pastor David Leeder described as “one of the greatest love stories of our time.”

Earle and Lou Nell married in Kokomo on July 11, 1949. Earle served in the Army during World War II and eventually became the Kokomo Police Chief.

He was elected twice as Howard County Sheriff, and served as a state representative from 1986 to 1994.

Leeder said throughout their marriage, Earle and Lou Nell demonstrated a devotion to each other that he’s rarely seen in other couples. Leeder serves as senior pastor at First Church of the Nazarene, where the Howards attended for years.

“There was no doubt that Earle Howard loved his wife with a passion, and Lou Nell absolutely adored Earle,” he said.

“To see one without the other, it just seemed like they weren’t quite complete.”

Even in their old age, Leeder said they constantly expressed their love for each other.

“In the last months, it was just holding hands, warm smiles, and words of kindness,” he said.

However, Leeder said

the couple’s health rapidly deteriorated over the last year. Lou Nell had been diagnosed with dementia, and Earle suffered from a serious heart condition.

Last month, Earle decided to go off dialysis.

Doctors gave him three weeks to live. Lou Nell’s health was so bad she was set to move into a nursing home today.

So Feb. 13, Leeder decided to pay a visit to the couple, who were under hospice care at their apartment at North Woods Village. He read scripture, and offered what would be the couple’s final communion service.

During that time, Earle shared he was ready to die, but he had one concern -- leaving Lou Nell alone.

So Leeder suggested praying God would allow Earle to pass away at the same time as his wife.

“He said, ‘Pastor, how perfect that would be.’”

Feb. 15, the couple’s only daughter, Julie, walked into the bedroom to wake up her parents.

Lou Nell was planning to leave for the nursing home that day.

Julie woke up Earle, who got up and dressed, but Lou Nell wouldn’t wake up.

Earle was dressed by that time, but said he didn’t feel well and sat down in a chair. Moments later, he died.

Julie, who works as a nurse, walked back into the bedroom and saw her mother take her last breath.

The couple passed away within just minutes, just as Earle had prayed.

Julie said losing both her parents at the same time was tough to handle, but she said she’s rejoicing that their prayers were answered.

I recently heard a story of an older gentleman who was moving to a room in a nursing home. His wife of 70 plus years had gone home to be with the Lord and Gary he was of Andrews an age that he needed Devotionals someone around him most of the time.

Upon checking into the home the young employee started explaining how his room would be and the color of the curtains and about the future.

The wise older man told him, “It is already decided in my mind that I like my room.”

The employee answered, “But sir, you haven’t seen your room yet.”

“Happiness is something I choose in advance,” remarked the older gentleman. “Whether or not I like the room does not depend on the furniture, or on the decor, rather it depends on how I decide to see it.”

When each one of us rises up from sleeping in the morning we have a choice of whether we are going to be happy that day or not. The Lord blesses us each time that we can face another day. It is up to us how we choose to spend it.

The new resident at the nursing home told the young employee, “I can choose. I can spend my day in bed enumerating all the difficulties that I have with the parts of my body that no longer work very well or I can get up and give thanks to heaven for those parts that I still have in working order.”

In today’s society all of us are running here and there and accomplishing about half of what needs to be done. We sometimes don’t think ahead and plan for the future and only look at what’s impor-

Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday -- Matthew 5:43-45; Monday -- Proverbs 20:22; Tuesday -- Luke 6:3538; Wednesday -- 1 Peter 1:3-5; Thursday -- Psalm 31:24; Friday -- Mark 9:41; Saturday -- Acts 20:35 tant, or seems important, at the moment.

God gives us every day.

We don’t do anything to earn it, and there is no way we can ever say that we gained a new day for what we have done. This is one reason that we shouldn’t ever put off doing something tomorrow that can be done today, such as visiting a long lost friend, calling your family members and telling them you love them, or maybe, even going to see someone that you may not be getting along with and clear up any differences.

There are some simple guidelines that will help all of us if we will adhere to them: 1. Free your heart from hate.

2. Free your mind from worry.

3. Live simple.

4. Give more.

5. Expect less.

Prayer: Father, You are so good to me and I praise You for everyday of life that You give me.

Thank You for Your many blessings and for all of the friends and family that You have allowed me to have. Amen.
