Pastor takes stand in battery trial

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Pastor Timothy Daniel Nall claims no ill feelings toward those who have brought him to court to face a charge of sexual battery against a young child.

Taking the witness stand Thursday afternoon in Alcorn County Circuit Court to testify in his own defense, Nall denied that he had any improper con-

tact with the granddaughter of Thomas and Marcia Mauney and also denied that he was constantly at their County Road 105 home.

“I don’t know why it happened,” he said, referring to the accusation against him. “I don’t blame [the child]. I don’t blame anybody … I’m hurt, but there’s no animosity.”

The child is now eight years

old. The acts are alleged to have occurred between August 2012 and April 2013.

Nall said he decided to tender his resignation as pastor of Farmington Baptist Church on July 6 after living under the shadow of the accusation for 15 months. When it was first reported in 2013, he attempted to resign, but the church voted not to accept it at that time.

He is no longer preaching but is on the church payroll until the end of August.

With attendance and offerings declining, he felt it was best to go.

“There were those who felt they could not worship with this cloud … This gave the church an opportunity to start moving forward,” said Nall, who has also recently been employed as

a Census field worker in Alcorn and neighboring counties but is currently on administrative hold for that job pending the outcome of this case.

An ordained minister since 1982, Nall said he first met the accusing family when one of the daughters came to vacation Bible school at FarmingPlease see PASTOR | 2A

Salvation Army plagued by thieves

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

A charitable organization has had enough.

Weekend thefts continue to plaque the Salvation Army and put them behind in helping those in need.

Employees with the agency arrived to find clothes and shoes scattered across its back loading area Monday. The mess wasn’t the first time workers have had to clean up to start the day.

“Since we have moved back this has happened pretty much every week,” said director Michelle Miles.

The local Salvation Army moved back to 2200 Lackey Drive last year following a short stay at a location on U.S. Highway 72.

“We can’t afford a $5,000 surveillance system,” added the director as she and four other

employees cleaned Monday.

“Right now, we are wasting manpower to clean this up every week.”

Clothing and other items dropped off by the community outside of the building have been gone through on a regular basis when no one with the agency is around.

“Some people are going through and taking what they want and leaving a mess to clean up,” said Miles. “They aren’t only stealing from us, but they are also stealing from the community.”

Individuals are also rummaging through the organization’s garbage dumpster after business hours. They use a pallet at the back of the building to climb through the dumpster.

“Anything we throw away is not worth having,” said Miles.

“If someone needs shoes or

clothing all they need to do is let us know.”

The problem has become so bad that garbage trucks have not been able to get through to collect the agency’s garbage each week.

“These people stealing aren’t doing it out of need,” said the director. “They are doing it because they are plagued with greed.”

Miles is advising donations be dropped off during business hours or limited to items that can be placed in the Salvation Army’s two drop boxes at the back of the building.

Business hours are MondayFriday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“We are tired of this happening all the time,” said Miles.

“We intend to prosecute anyone we find doing it from now on.”

‘Harvest of Quilts’ Show returns next month

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

One of the largest and most colorful quilt shows in the southeast, the Needle Chasers Quilt Guild “Harvest of Quilts” Show is held every two years on even years.

The 2014 show has been set for 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sept.

19 and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sept.

20 at Iuka Baptist Church. Judy Stokes of Columbus will serve as the judge.

“Make your plans and mark your calendars,” Publicity Chairman Rita J. Casey. “Even if you are not a quilter, but love the art of quilting you will want to attend this grand event.”

Sponsored by the Needle Chasers, the eleventh quilt show has

54 members in the Tri-State area working diligently to plan and host the event.

“It takes many people working together to conduct a successful event and we need the public to make this event successful by attending,” said Casey.

According to the publicity chairman, the love of quilts is widespread.

“Many people love quilts and are not even quilters,” she said.

“Quilters love quilts because they love to quilt. QUILTS are -- quite unique in lovely treasured stitches -- which makes it so wonderful to be able to come to the “Harvest of Quilts” and view so many treasures at one time.”

Those who attend will be eli-

gible for Viewer’s Choice voting during the show. Winners in the Viewer’s Choice will be awarded based on the number of votes the quilt receives from viewers by noon on Sept. 20. The categories will be large, medium and small quilts.

The show is open to exhibitors who wish to display a quilt either made by themselves or as part of a group. No pre-printed quilts will be allowed. Previously exhibited quilts may be exhibited for judging this year if they meet the criteria. The quilt should never have won a Viewer’s Choice prize in previous Needle Chaser’s shows and be the quilt should

neighbors,” said Lynda Clardy. “We plan to set up these identification clinics in different areas, to make it more accessible to the families, as long as we have the funding.”

The program is offered to children, senior citizens, vulnerable adults, Alzheimer patients and the mentally challenged.

It is also designed to safeguard those subject to wondering away, that

might have difficulty relaying their identity or location of their residence.

“We are pleased to offer the most comprehensive digital fingerprinting child identification system. In creating Child ID Programs, we worked directly with the National Chip Foundation and with National Mason Chip,” said Clardy. “We have worked with leaw nforcement officials to ensure our Child ID digital fingerprinting system

is up their standards. We capture all the vital information required by the Amber Alert system.”

Child ID software form includes all 10 fingerprints and is saved in the universal PDF format.

In addition to two printed ID cards and the Child ID form, parents will receive a CD with all the information on it.

“We have customized this program for the Masons Chip Program so you know it is the best. To

help protect from identity theft, the Child ID software kit was written in such a way as to retain no information about the child on the computer.

The parent is the only person who keeps the data,” said Clardy.

The program is not for those who wish to sell the Child ID Kits. It must be given to parents and children free of charge.

ton Baptist a few years after he began preaching there. At that time, the Mauneys resumed attending the church occasionally.

At some point, the pastor began visiting with the Mauneys on a regular basis because of their health problems.

He said the frequency was about once a week in early 2012 and later increase to a couple of times a week. Nall said he never visited every day or nearly every day as some prior testimony has suggested.

The Mauneys live not far from the church, and Nall said he would sometimes stop by because he “genuinely liked the family.”

The state’s case describes a scenario in which Nall would sit at the kitchen table with the Mauney’s granddaughter in his lap with the chair pulled very close to the table. He would allegedly slide his hand into her pants while they sat there.

The child testified on Wednesday that it happened “every time.”

He said the first time he remembers the child sitting in his lap was on an occasion when he was talking with Thomas Mauney. She was sitting on Mauney’s knee and suddenly came over and climbed onto his knee, he said.

“And I’m thinking: What do I do about this,” said Nall.

He recalled that she was “very fidgety” and, after a few minutes, returned to Mauney’s knee.

Nall said she sat on his left knee, and it was not under the table.

He said he never inserted a finger into the child as described in the indictment. He said they were never positioned under the table and he does not know if it would have been possible because of his stature at 5 feet 11 inches and 215 pounds.

Nall also said he was never alone with the child.

In cross-examination, Assistant District Attorney Greg Meyer questioned Nall’s ability to recall some of the details. He called attention to the fact that Nall could not name the location of a church in Kansas where he briefly

preached in 2000.

Meyer also highlighted the preacher’s background, which includes stints at three different churches during a period from 1996 to 2000.

Also testifying for the defense Thursday was Kelly Thornton, a nurse practitioner with the Faith Family Clinics of Kossuth and Booneville, who conducted an examination of the child on May 5, 2013, several days after the complaint was filed with the sheriff’s department. Thornton said she has been doing sexual assault examinations for 20 years in cases that are more than 72 hours out from the incident.

Thornton said she found nothing unusual during the pelvic exam, including no evidence of anything traumatic having occurred and subsequently healed.

She said the child’s mother reported that her daughter had experienced recurring urinary tract infections and yeast infections, and she referred them to a urologist.

The table where all of the alleged abuse occurred was the focus of much discussion on Thursday. Judge James L. Roberts Jr. denied defense attorney Phil Hinton’s request to conduct a demonstration by bringing into the courtroom a replica of the Mauneys’ table.

Hinton said the court should allow the jury to get “a fair appraisal of what the scene looks like.”

Roberts said the photos of the actual table should suffice.

“I do not believe there is any way to accurately recreate that exact scene,” he said.

Hinton was allowed to introduce a series of photos taken in the Mauney home by certified legal investigator Terry R. Cox showing Nall seated at the table.

The photos showed the defendant from the perspective of each of the other seats at the table.

Meyer argued that these photos show Nall positioned too far away from the table, given the prior testimony that he would position the chair as close as possible.

The trial resumes this morning and may extend into Saturday.

According to Huwe, the quiet zone would eliminate trains from blowing their horns on the Norfolk Southern line from the Crossroads Regional Park to the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center.

If a quite zone is put into the place, it would

require the closing of several downtown streets, including the Madison Street railroad crossing.

Two others crossings — Taylor Street and Franklin Street — would become one-way in an effort to reduce the cost of the quiet zone conversion.

Each crossing within the zone will have active warning devices such as flashing lights and gates.

The exception is those who receive absentee ballots by mail. The new voter I.D. regulations apply to the city election in the same way that they did for the recent congressional primary at the county precincts.

Those who are not registered to vote have until Aug. 16 to register in order to participate in the Sept. 16 primary.

City Hall will also open on Saturday, Aug. 16, from 8 a.m. to noon for the final day of voter registration.

The Republican candidates have no primary because there are no contested races. The Democratic primary includes Ralph Dance and Ben Gann for police chief, Mike Hopkins and Jennifer S. McCoy for alderman at large, and J.C. Hill and Steve Hill for ward 4 alderman.

High-speed Internet urged for schools

BY HU MEENA For the Daily Corinthian

Technology is rapidly changing how we educate our children. From iPads and tablets to laptop computers, today’s classrooms look nothing like those from even a few years ago. To power this quantum change, teachers need access to the latest digital learning platforms and schools need high-speed Internet connections for all students.

Recent media reports have shed new light on the scope of this challenge and the need for immediate action. Currently the state trails the rest of the country in education technology use, which negatively influences high school graduation rates and student employment opportunities.

Too few schools have access to high-speed broadband and Internet-capable devices and many areas struggle to effectively use technology even when it is available

Today is Friday, August 8, the 220th day of 2014. There are 145 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On August 8, 1974, President Richard Nixon announced his resignation, effective the next day, following damaging new revelations in the Watergate scandal.

On this date: In 1814, during the War of 1812, peace talks between the United States and Britain began in Ghent, Belgium.

In 1911, President William Howard Taft signed a measure raising the number of U.S. representatives from 391 to 433, effective with the next Congress, with a proviso to add two more when New Mexico and Arizona became states.

In 1937, during the Second Sino-Japanese War, Japan completed its occupation of Beijing.

In 1942, during World War II, six Nazi saboteurs who were captured after landing in the U.S. were executed in Washington, D.C.; two others who’d cooperated with authorities were spared.

In 1945, President Harry S. Truman signed the U.S. instrument of ratification for the United Nations Charter. The Soviet Union declared war against Japan during World War II. In 1963, Britain’s “Great Train Robbery� took place as thieves made off with 2.6 million pounds in banknotes.

In 1968, the Republican national convention in Miami Beach nominated Richard Nixon for president on the first ballot.

In 1973, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew branded as “damned lies� reports he had taken kickbacks from government contracts in Maryland, and vowed not to resign — which he ended up doing.

Hu Meena in the classroom, according to a recent study by Digital Learning Now, a group that advocates for more online learning.

The technology gap is looming large as we transition to online assessments that will be used to make student promotion and graduation decisions, evaluate teachers and rate schools.

Today, most schools in Mississippi lack robust Wi-Fi connections for students. But, it doesn’t have to stay this way.

Simply put, Mississippi

needs an education revolution to move us into the technology fast lane.

To get to the front of the digital learning curve, we need visionary education leaders, commitment from elected officials, support of parents and private sector participation.

The good news is that C Spire is already doing its part to help change the narrative and position our schools for success.

As a Mississippi-based telecommunications and technology services provider, we have been a leader in deploying fiber optic infrastructure to power high-speed Internet connections.

C Spire has developed a cost-effective solution to expand Wi-Fi networks in schools to support digital learning, expand computer use and boost slow Internet speeds. Our hosted Wi-Fi solution has been successfully piloted in two districts with state funding and deployed in three additional public

digital literacy skills they need to effectively compete in the 21st century global information economy.

That can only happen if we work together to revolutionize classroom instruction in the same way we ensure that high speed Internet access continues to transform virtually every part of our economy and our society.

While the challenges are significant, the benefits from technologydriven improvements in our state’s schools are greater. For once, Mississippi can be a leader in education. Let’s show the world that our state means business about transforming education and brightening our children’s future.

(Hu Meena is president and CEO of C-Spire, a privately owner and operated diversified telecommunications and technology company based in Ridgeland, Miss.)

Republicans won’t hear challenge to Cochran Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s Republican Party refused to hear challenger Chris McDaniel’s effort to overturn his June 24 GOP runoff loss to U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran.

The party said McDaniel would do better taking his challenge to court.

In a letter to McDaniel’s lawyer, state Republican Party Chairman Joe Nosef wrote that a court is needed to “protect the rights of the voters as well as both candidates.�

Nosef wrote that under state Republican Party bylaws, seven days’ notice has to be given before the executive committee can meet. If the notice went out Wednesday, he wrote, the committee couldn’t convene until Aug. 13, only one day before the deadline for McDaniel to file his complaint with a court.

Nosef wrote that the

Nosef did not answer his cellphone or respond to a text message requesting comment.

Referring the issue to court also allows members of the GOPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s executive committee, many of whom have ties to Cochran, to avoid ruling on McDanielâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s challenge.

McDaniel supporters have criticized Nosef and even called for his resignation, saying he has favored Cochran despite his claim of neutrality.

Letter to the editor

Everyone, please be a good example To the editor: As the new school year has just begun, I would like to bring a problem that has been bugging me to the attention of both students and adults.

The problem is rumors and gossip.

I am sure each school has its own example they can use. My example is about Alcorn Central High School – a school where my daughter has been teaching for 25 years.

I have volunteered at this school for several years and am proud of their accomplishments with a very limited budget.

From the principal down, you see teachers preparing for the new school year with money from their own pocket. They clean, paint and wax. Anything that needs to be done – they do it because they want their students to be proud of their facility.

Recently, a friend asked me what was “wrong” with Alcorn Central. I didn’t think anything was wrong with Alcorn Central and did not know to what she was referring.

Word has it that Alcorn Central had 100 students and only 45 graduated.

I was livid because I knew this was not true since my daughter taught 12th grade English, was a sponsor of the seniors and was in charge of graduation.

If this was true you, could have heard my daughter’s distraught voice down to the Alcorn County Courthouse.

After I checked, the correct figures showed a class of 96 with 92 graduating. Pretty well, since the ones who did not graduate had a problem with attendance and turning work in on time or not at all.

The only way we can improve Alcorn County and Corinth Schools is to work together.

As all of our mothers have told us: If you cannot say something nice (or not substantiated), don’t say anything at all.

God says in his Book,”Yea my heart shall rejoice when thy lips speak right things.”

(Prov. 23:16) Please encourage teachers and students alike in order for us to put out the best we can.

Everyone, please be a good example.

The spreading scourge of anti-Christian persecution Intolerance that fosters pogroms abroad is taking root in U.S. communities.

Sobering and unforgettable images are projected across our television and computer screens. They should elicit the most basic instincts of both fear and compassion.

I’m referring to images of showing the persecution of hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions, of our fellow brothers and sisters by incomprehensible religious zealots. Their intolerance of Christianity is beyond horrible. People are beheaded for their faith.

Women and young girls are sexually violated, and whole families are wantonly slaughtered in cold blood.

Perhaps just as abhorrent is the profound silence of the current administration. Even though President Obama has declared that we are not a Judeo-Christian nation, we are still compassionate people who should not ignore humanitarian atrocities, much less ones where the victims are only guilty of maintaining a belief in the principles espoused by Jesus Christ.

We have an obligation as Americans to denounce these acts of persecution.

Even those Ben who do not a Carson worship higher deColumnist ity should be concerned.

For when we stand up to such intolerance, we are defending the root of freedom.

We are defending choice — the ability to worship and call on the name of a heavenly being without fear of torture and abandonment.

The president, who very early in his tenure won the Nobel Peace Prize, now has an opportunity to truly be the broker of peace in a very troubled part of the world. He can be a champion of freedom of religion, a founding principle of our nation. As long as religious practices do not infringe upon the rights of others, he can make it clear that it is wrong to interfere with those practices.

In our own country, we must become more rea-

sonable in disputes about religious symbols. For instance, if a Christmas tree or manger scene has been a long-standing community tradition, and a few offended people come along and claim that it must be removed, should those few individuals have the power to interfere with the seasonal joy of thousands who rejoice in the viewing of those symbols? If someone is offended by a menorah in a Jewish community, would it not make more sense to give them sensitivity training rather than disturb the entire community by removing the symbol? I could go on, but I think the point is clear. When we reward unwarranted hypersensitivity surrounding religious ceremonies or beliefs, we add fuel to the hatred and intolerance that subsequently produces religious persecution.

Some will say religious persecution in other parts of the world does not concern us and we cannot be the police for the planet. Certainly, there is some validity to the latter part of that state-

ment, but if we continue to ignore or tolerate religious persecution elsewhere, it is just a matter of time before we will experience it here at home.

As far as the Middle East is concerned, we are not helpless and can dispatch the State Department to do all it can to help. Some conservatives and cynics might argue that such a move requires government dollars.

Who’s to say? We don’t fully comprehend how besieged these people are, much less know what it would take to grant them relief.

Governments need to decry such persecution, and root it out wherever and whenever they can. The United States should lead in that effort — just as it has with combating sex trafficking and other problems the world has decried in the past.

It is hard to find an issue that demands a sharper clarion call for leadership now.

A verse to share “And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

— Matthew 4:19

The standard thing to say about the various Republican primaries this year is that the tea party movement has lost one race after another. That’s a defensible conclusion but also an oversimplification.

I see more turbulence and undercurrents among Republican primary voters than usual. The evidence is that incumbents -- both those the mainstream media call tea partyers and those they call the party establishment -- have been prevailing by tenuous margins in primaries that in the pre-tea party years would almost certainly not have been seriously contested.

Take Kansas. There Sen. Pat Roberts was renominated over challenger Dr. Milton Wolf by just a 48 percent to 30 percent margin -- a victory, but an embarrassingly low margin for someone who has been in Congress for 34 years.

Wolf, a second cousin of President Obama, made much of the fact that Roberts maintains only a nominal residence in the state.

But the doctor was hurt when it was revealed that he circulated X-rays of wounded patients with macabre comments.

Roberts, perhaps awakened by the near-defeat of fellow septuagenarian and longtime incumbent Thad Cochran in Mississippi, worked hard in affluent Johnson County, just outside Kansas City, which casts one-fifth of the primary vote. He held Wolf to

a 107-vote margin there and carried 92 of the other 104 counties.

Also reMichael n o m i n a t e d Gov. Barone was Sam BrownColumnist back, by 63 percent to 37 percent. Brownback’s push for tax cuts has been controversial; critics charge it hasn’t stimulated growth and has forced the state to cut needed spending. Some 100 current and past Republicans officials signed a letter supporting his Democratic opponent.

This is the latest chapter in a long-simmering intraparty fight between conservatives and moderates.

Brownback prevailed, but by a margin that suggests problems in November.

Kansas also saw serious challenges of incumbents in two of its four congressional districts. In the 1st District, Tim Huelskamp, a frequent rebel against the House Republican leadership, won, but by only 54 percent to 46 percent.

There was a clearer verdict in the Wichita-centered 4th District, where incumbent Mike Pompeo led his predecessor, Tom Tiahrt, by 63 percent to 37 percent.

Tiahrt ran as a champion of earmarks, arguing they were necessary to help Wichita’s troubled private plane industry. Pompeo pledged no earmarks, and various conservative groups

supported each candidate.

The lesson from these results: Many Republicans are skittish about backbench rebellions that produced the government shutdown and hurt the party in the polls; many more are pleased to see earmarks go, even when they arguably help the local community.

Michigan had significant Republican primaries in six congressional districts.

House Energy and Commerce Chairman Fred Upton, who has faced conservative challenges before, won with 71 percent in the 6th District.

In the 4th District, John Molenaar, endorsed by incumbent retiring Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp, beat selffunding businessman Paul Mitchell by 52 percent to 36 percent. In the 8th District vacated by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers, moderate Mike Bishop beat tea-partyidentified Tom McMillin, 60 percent to 40 percent.

You could chalk these up as establishment victories.

But don’t count businesssupported Dave Trott’s 66 percent to 34 percent pounding of incumbent reindeer farmer and Santa Claus impersonator Kerry Bentivolio in the 11th District. He was a fluke winner two years ago and didn’t put up much of a fight this time.

And conservative incumbents in the 1st and 7th districts won with 70 percent of the vote or more.

District, local and national business groups spent big money on challenger Brian Ellis. But he failed to oust incumbent Justin Amash, who makes a practice of tweeting his reasons for his votes, often against the party leadership, on every roll call.

On foreign policy, Amash takes a stand much like Sen. Rand Paul’s, and he recently voted against funding Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. He won by 57 percent to 43 percent, a decisive margin but no landslide for an incumbent in a primary — and he characteristically refused to take his opponent’s congratulatory phone call.

Republican primary turnout continues to be more robust than Democratic turnout, a good omen for the party in November. And Republican primary voters seem reluctant to vote for firebrands who lose general elections or provoke government shutdowns.

But they are also more open to questioning incumbents. It’s as if they are seeking a way forward to policies with voter appeal, with no clear idea of how to get there.

Obama authorizes airstrikes in Iraq WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama authorized U.S. airstrikes in northern Iraq Thursday night, warning they would be launched if needed to defend Americans from advancing Islamic militants and protect civilians under siege. His announcement threated a renewal of U.S. military involvement in the country’s long sectarian war.

In a televised latenight statement from the White House, Obama said American military planes already had carried out airdrops of humanitarian aid to tens of thousands of Iraqi religious minorities surrounded by militants and desperately in need of food and water.

“Today America is coming to help,” he declared.

The announcements reflected the deepest American engagement in Iraq since U.S. troops withdrew in late 2011 after nearly a decade of war. Obama, who made his remarks in a steady and somber tone, has staked much of his legacy as president on ending what he has called the “dumb war” in Iraq.

Obama said the humanitarian airdrops were made at the request of the Iraqi government.

Rain hits Hawaii from hurricane edge HONOLULU — The first hurricane expected to hit Hawaii in 22 years weakened slightly Thursday as its outer edges began to bring rain and wind to the Big Island, while residents and tourists prepared for a possible one-two punch as another major storm lined up behind it in the Pacific.

The eye of Hurricane Iselle was about 250 miles southeast of Hilo, moving at roughly 17 mph and expected to make landfall Thursday evening, according to the National Weather Service. Meanwhile, Hurricane Julio strengthened early Thursday into a Category 2 storm but was forecast to pass just north of the islands sometime Sunday morning.

Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie said the state is prepared for the backto-back storms, noting the National Guard is at the ready and state and local governments were closing offices, schools and transit services across Hawaii. Emergency shelters also are being opened across the state.

Meanwhile, state Attorney General David Louie promised that Saturday’s primary elections will go forward as planned.

Earlier Thursday, a 4.5-magnitude earthquake struck the Big Island but didn’t cause major damage. There were no reports of injuries as residents made last-minute trips to grocery stores and boarded up their homes.

Kelsey Walker said the quake felt like a “little jolt” but didn’t knock things off shelves at the Waimea grocery store where he works. He was trying to keep a sense of humor about it.

“We have a hurricane.

Now we have this on top of it. What else?”

Walker mused.

Travelers got their first word of disrupted plans Thursday, when commuter airline Island

Air said it was canceling some afternoon flights between the islands and shutting down all operations Friday.

Monkeys’ ‘selfies’ spark claim issues LONDON — Monkey see, monkey do. But when a monkey takes a selfie, who owns the copyright?

A series of selfportraits taken by Indonesian monkeys has sparked a copyright dispute between Wikipedia and a British wildlife photographer, who wasn’t amused that the popular images are being used for free.

Photographer David Slater complained Thursday that Wikipedia rejected his requests for the images to be removed from the website.

He said he owns the copyright to the images of crested black macaque monkeys, which were taken in the Indonesian jungle in 2011.

Slater told the BBC that although the monkeys pressed the button, he had set the selfportraits up by framing them and setting the camera on a tripod.

“It wasn’t that the monkey stole the camera, went behind the bush and photographed it all by itself. It required a large input from myself,” he said.

But Wikimedia Foundation, the group behind the free information-sharing site, argued that Slater didn’t own the copyright to the photos because he didn’t take the images.

It said no one owned the copyright to the images, because under

U.S. law, “copyright cannot vest in non-human authors” — the monkeys in this case.

“We take these requests very seriously, and we thoroughly researched both sides of the claim,” the group said in a statement.

“When a work’s copyright cannot vest in a human, it falls into the public domain.”

Conviction made in killing of woman DETROIT — A jury convicted a suburban Detroit homeowner of second-degree murder and manslaughter Thursday in the killing of an unarmed woman on his porch last year, rejecting his claim that he was afraid for his life when he heard the woman pounding on his door in the middle of the night and had acted in self-defense.

Theodore Wafer, 55, shot Renisha McBride through a screen door on Nov. 2, hours after she crashed into a parked car a half-mile from his house. No one knows why she ended up at the Dearborn Heights home, although prosecutors speculated that the 19-year-old woman may have been seeking help.

The jury convicted Wafer of second-degree murder, manslaughter and a gun-related charge after deliberating for about eight hours over two days.

Wayne County Judge Dana Hathaway warned that she would lock people up for any outbursts, and the courtroom was silent after the verdict was read.

NO PLACE TO HIDE! Jack Exum once told an interesting story of an Australian scholar in the 1930s who, along with many others, felt certain that Europe and Asia was headed toward another world war. However, he did not want to be involved. He felt no patriotic duty toward any country and was determined to remain neutral no matter what. With painstaking logic he studied all the remote islands of the world to find a place where he could live the rest of his life untouched by the fires of war. In the summer of 1939 he found an obscure, virtually uninhabited island and exclaimed, “This is it! The perfect hiding place” He went ashore, selected a good living spot, and made his first makeshift dwelling. The name of the island was Guadalcanal. You may remember that in World War II, Guadalcanal was the scene of the first major U.S. offensive against the Japanese in August, 1942. The man had tried to hide from the war, but it overran him.

Brother Richard Powlus correctly observed that immorality is like that--you either fight it or be overrun by it. As Christians today we, like the Lord’s disciples then, are not “of” the world, but we certainly are “in” the world. Immorality abounds all around us. We should not, (indeed, we dare not) bury our heads in the sand, for it WILL overrun us. The Lord prayed that His disciples would be sanctified by the truth and thereby kept from “evil” (John 17:14-17). Moreover, as soldiers of the cross we understand that ours is not a carnal “flesh and blood” battle, but a spiritual battle against “spiritual hosts of wickedness” (Ephesians 6:12-17).

Furthermore, as we war against immorality, we must be careful that we do not let the wicked world entice us into sin. As Paul advised the young evangelist Timothy, we must “endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier” (II Timothy 2:3-4). If we (with the Lord’s help) keep ourselves “unspotted from the world” (James 1:27), we are in better position to keep immorality out of our family, and out of the Lord’s church.

New law boosts vets’ health care Associated Press

FORT BELVOIR, Va. — Tens of thousands of military veterans who have been enduring long waits for medical care should be able to turn to private doctors almost immediately under a law signed Thursday by President Barack Obama.

Other changes will take longer under the $16.3 billion law, which is the government’s most sweeping response to the problems that have rocked the Veterans Affairs Department and led to the ouster of Eric Shinseki as VA secretary.

Improved access to outside care is likely to be the most immediate effect.

Veterans who have waited at least a month for a medical appointment or who live at least 40 miles from a Veterans Affairs hospital or clinic will be able to see private doctors at government expense.

Expanding the VA staff by hiring thousands of doctors, nurses and mental health counselors —

another key component of the law — will take months to get underway and years to complete, VA officials said. Opening 27 new clinics across the country will take at least two years.

“Implementing this law will take time,” Obama acknowledged as he signed the bill at Fort Belvoir, an Army base in Virginia just outside Washington. Service members, veterans groups and military leaders attended the ceremony, along with lawmakers from both parties.

Obama called the legislation a rare example of Republicans and Democrats working together effectively. He also said more action was needed.

“This will not and cannot be the end of our effort,” he said. “And even as we focus on the urgent reforms we need at the VA right now, particularly around wait lists and the health care system, we can’t lose sight of our long-term goals for our service members and our veterans.”

Noting issues including mental health care and homelessness among veterans, he said, “we’ve got more work to do.”

Paul Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, called the new law “a Band-Aid solution,” all that Congress could accomplish in an emergency.

“Anybody who thinks this is going to fix the problem is not being honest about this,” Rieckhoff said, citing a host of issues the bill leaves unaddressed, from veterans’ suicides and homelessness to a stubborn backlog in disability claims.

Daniel Dellinger, national commander of the American Legion, the nation’s largest veterans group, called the bill an important step to begin repairing systemic problems at the VA. “But it is only one step and only a beginning,” he said.

The measure, approved overwhelmingly

in the House and Senate, is a response to reports of veterans dying while awaiting appointments to see VA doctors and of a widespread practice of employees covering up months-long wait times for appointments.

In some cases, employees received bonuses based on falsified records.

Under the new law, employment rules will be revised to make it easier to fire senior VA executives judged to be negligent or performing poorly.

The law devotes $10 billion in emergency spending over three years to pay private doctors and other health professionals to care for qualifying veterans who can’t get timely appointments at VA hospitals or clinics or who live more than 40 miles from one of them.

It includes $5 billion for hiring more VA doctors, nurses and other medical staff and $1.3 billion to open 27 new VA clinics across the country.

Alexander fends off tea party in Tennessee

BY ERIK SCHELZIG Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Republican Lamar Alexander became the latest U.S. senator to fend off a tea party challenge in a primary race Thursday, defeating a state senator who had used a familiar tactic in trying to cast him as an out of touch insider.

Alexander’s win dealt another blow to national tea party momentum after the stunning primary win over Republican Rep. Eric Cantor in Virginia in June.

In Tennessee, State Sen. Joe Carr had high-profile endorsements from tea party-allied figures, but

he could not overcome Alexander’s fundraising advantage and 40 years in Tennessee politics.

He had about 38 percent of the vote with 24 percent of precincts reporting, compared with about 52 percent for Alexander.

In heavily Republican Tennessee, Alexander is strongly favored to win re-election in November.

He maintained a moderate tone in his victory speech, touting his ability to craft compromises.

“If we want to change Obamacare, we’re going to have to pass something. If we want to fix the debt, we’re going to have to pass something,” Alexander said. “And to do that we’re going to have to work with other people to get it done.”

So far this year, the argument that sitting senators have lost their connection with voters hasn’t been a winner. Republican Sens. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Thad Cochran of Mississippi and Pat Roberts of Kansas have all held off tea

party-backed challenges.

Republican Kathy Leake, a 65-year old nurse in the Memphis suburb of Bartlett, said she would not shy away from voting for a qualified tea party candidate but had nothing against Alexander.

“I didn’t see any of the others that had anything else to offer any better than he was ... I’m just sticking with him,” she said.

Alexander sought to avoid any chance Carr or Flinn could cast him as an insider by locking down key endorsements and spending the final few weeks of the campaign on a 35-stop bus tour around the state stressing his ability to get results in a divided Senate.

The senator’s stance resonated with voter Larry Harrison, a clinical services director in Nashville who considers himself an independent.

“Carr goes way too conservative for me,” said Harrison, who cited Alexander’s experience and temperament in supporting the incumbent.

“I think he’s got a more moderate view, and I’m a more moderate person myself,” he said.

Alexander, 74, has served two terms as the state’s governor and two terms in the Senate.

Also on the Tennessee ballot Thursday is embattled Republican Rep. Scott DesJarlais, a physician from the small south Tennessee town of Jasper who won re-election in 2012 despite revelations that he once urged a patient he was dating to seek an abortion.

After the election, court officials released transcripts of divorce proceedings that included DesJarlais admitting under oath that he had eight affairs, encouraged a lover to get an abortion and used a gun to intimidate his first wife during an argument.

Last year, DesJarlais was reprimanded and fined by the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners in May for having sex with patients. But the congressman has since doubled down on his tea party credentials and has dismissed the details about his personal life as “old news.” He faces state Sen. Jim Tracy, who has far outraised the incumbent.

In the state’s majority black 9th Congressional District, Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen, a white and Jewish Memphis native, defeated attorney Ricky Wilkins. Wilkins, who is African-American, had sought to highlight ethnic and racial differences between Cohen and his constituents in the district, which Cohen has represented since 2006.

Travel affords valuable education unobtainable elsewhere Mark Twain writes in “The Innocents Abroad” that “travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our peoStacy ple need it on Jones sorely these acThe c o u n t s .

Dowtowner B r o a d , wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”

Travel is vital to education. Without traveling, you cannot really know the place you live because you have nothing against which to compare.

I had my first experience abroad in 1995, when, the summer before my senior year of college, I spent five weeks

studying in London. Even though the Internet was not as widely used almost 20 years ago as now, a Google search using the keywords “London heatwave 1995” pulls up a New York Times article at the top of the list, the title of which is “The Biggest Heat Wave In Years Stuns Irish,” although it discusses the unusually hot weather across the entire UK. The article explains that “railway tracks have buckled. Scottish roads are melting. One sunbather’s skirt caught fire.”

I can attest to the heat in the UK that summer because air conditioning is generally not common across England, nor are water fountains. I learned to sleep under only a sheet and grew accustomed to buying bottled water at every turn. I must say, on the other hand, that lukewarm lager is an aberration, although that is

apparently how the Brits prefer it.

Six years later, I got the chance to tour Italy.

The Italians are certainly much more advanced than we Americans when it comes to public spaces.

Every piazza is simply artwork, full of sculptures and fountains. However, when it comes to budget accommodations, they don’t seem as accustomed to the space that we enjoy in America. For example, twin beds dominated hotels, and bathrooms were, well, surprising.

In Venice, I had a twin bed. It was quite comfortable after a day of touring, but I was surprised to walk into my bathroom and find a toilet, a lavatory, a shower head on the wall, and a drain in the floor. A pull-down plastic cover protected the toilet paper from getting soaked while the occupant opted to shower.

In other words, the whole bathroom at once became the shower. I didn’t think a tub or shower stall was much to ask for, and the absence of either one made me appreciate them all the more.

Two days later, my hotel in Florence afforded what I thought was a king-sized bed. I looked forward to sprawling beneath cool, crisp, cotton sheets and spreading myself across the length of it. When I pulled back those sheets, I discovered that what looked like a king-sized bed was really two smaller beds pushed together. There was no way to sleep in the middle without falling into what seemed like a gaping hole.

Later, I ended up with another single bed in Rome, so I thought there were to be no surprises.

I did, however, learn the next morning, while

trying to dry my hair, that even major cities in Rome do not afford the same sort of power grids we have in America, even in smaller towns or rural areas. Every couple of minutes, my hair dryer kept throwing the breaker, and I’d have to walk across the room and turn it back on.

Now don’t think I’m complaining. As Twain also said in “Innocents Abroad”: “The gentle reader will never, never know what a consummate ass he can become until he goes abroad.”

The experiences I had were nothing that could be obtained from reading a book or watching a video. In England, I became a “regular” at a neighborhood British pub, saw live British theatre that rivals New York’s Broadway, and walked across Abbey Road, to name only a few. In Italy, I rode in

one of Venice’s famous gondolas, sat at the Uffizi Museum on a bench in front of Michelangelo’s breathtaking David, wandered old Roman ruins, visited the shells of stores in Pompeii, and ate lamb chops at a restaurant overlooking the checkerboard Umbrian countryside.

The images and other sensory experiences embedded in those memories still inform and transform me as I continue to travel and add to them.

For me, travel is a restlessness with the known, a spicy love affair with the world. I plan to stay restless.

Flow of child immigrants slowing along Texas-Mexico border The Associated Press

McALLEN, Texas — Fewer unaccompanied immigrant children are crossing the TexasMexico border, allowing the federal government to close the temporary shelters that it hurriedly opened to handle the surge, authorities say.

Arrests in South Texas have fallen in recent weeks to about 100 per day, down from 300 or more in June, according to the Border Patrol. The decline could be the result of searing summer temperatures or a messaging campaign in both the U.S. and the migrants’ home countries that stresses the dangers of the journey and warns them they will not be allowed to stay.

Officials on the border are careful not to suggest that the crisis has passed.

When temperatures subside, they say, children from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador could be back in greater numbers.

The White House has shied away from taking credit for the decrease, which gives the administration more time to deal with the crush of immigrants who have already

arrived, many drawn here by persistent rumors that once across the border, they will be allowed to stay.

The slowdown also seems likely to reduce the urgency for Congress to act after adjourning last week without a deal to give President Barack Obama any of the money he’s asked for to handle the influx. If the slower pace holds, Congress may have little impetus to return to the issue when lawmakers reconvene after Labor Day in Washington.

The falling numbers could cause the border crisis to recede somewhat from public view, offering Obama extra space to curb deportations for other segments of the immigrant population, a step he’s indicated he plans to take around the end of summer.

This week, the federal agency charged with housing the children announced it would soon suspend operations at three temporary shelters with a total of about 3,000 beds. Government officials said the existing network of federally contracted shelters would

suffice, at least for now.

The shelters could reopen later, if needed.

More than 57,000 unaccompanied children entered the U.S. illegally from October to June, more than double the number from the same period a year earlier. Another 55,000 families — mothers or fathers with young children — were arrested during that period, and they remain a presence in shelters across the Rio Grande in Mexico.

Total apprehensions — adults and juveniles — in the Rio Grande Valley were 24,500 in July. That was down from about 38,000 in June but still well above the 15,000 in July 2013, according to the Border Patrol. The government has not released July totals for unaccompanied children.

The state-run children’s shelter in Reynosa, Mexico, just across the border from McAllen, has not received a Central American child yet in August, said

coordinator Jose Guadalupe Villegas Garcia. The shelter had been receiving 10 to 12 kids from those countries per week in early July, but that rate began slowing around the middle of the month, he said.

At the nearby religiously affiliated Senda de Vida shelter, Eneyda Alvarez, a 28-year-old mother of three watched her 8-yearold son, Antony, kick a soccer ball around the courtyard. Scars from where her husband viciously beat her with a cable showed like tan stripes on Alvarez’s dark skin.

When she heard her husband had told his brother to douse the family’s house in gasoline and set it ablaze, she sold all their possessions, left two kids with an aunt and headed north with Antony and her mom.

The family made it to the northern Mexican border state of Tamaulipas, but armed men took

Hector Joaquin Silva de Luna, a pastor who runs the shelter, said it’s been two weeks since any unaccompanied children arrived, but the number of families at the shelter has held steady at 16 to 23 per week. He said many have heard the message from U.S. authorities that they will be deported. A delegation of U.S. officials visited the shelter Sunday.

Ingrid Bran had not heard about the U.S. beginning to detain mothers and children until she arrived at the border.

She left the Paraiso department on Honduras’ border with Nicaragua a month ago because she couldn’t find work cultivating chiles or coffee to support her two children.

“A friend told me to turn myself over to immigration” authorities, Bran said, as her 7-year-old son played with Alvarez’s boy.

But after arriving at the border, she was told that the previous practices had ended.

Alvarez and Antony off a bus in Tampico about six hours south of the border. They held the pair for three days, first in a warehouse with about 200 immigrants, where Alvarez said she saw people with appendages cut off, and later in a two-story house with 18 others.

The men extorted $1,000 from her aunt in Virginia, then threatened to cut off one of Alvarez’s fingers if she didn’t come up with another $5,000.

Mexican Marines raided the house, finally ending their nightmare. A couple days later, she reunited with her mother at the shelter in Reynosa. She says she cannot return to Honduras because her husband could kill her.

When she left Honduras in late July, she was under the impression the Border Patrol was still releasing mothers traveling with young children because a neighbor had just made it. “Then, I said, I’m going to go.”

Is boy being neglected by biological father?

We Dear Annie: My daughAnnie’s cross-contamination. were told to read all food ter was recently ordered labels and always carry by the court to have her Mailbox EpiPens. At age 13, our 5-year-old son visit his son now cautiously sits biological father and grandparents every other weekend.

The boy has always lived with his mother, because the biological father felt he was not ready to be a dad and deserted them.

He and his parents cut off contact for five years, and now they have decided they want to spend time with the boy.

Here’s the disturbing part. When at their house, my grandson is not permitted to eat at the family table. He eats at a small table in the corner.

He’s only permitted to eat or drink at certain times, he cannot phone his mother when he wants, he sleeps in a room in the basement, he must call the grandparents by specific names or they won’t speak to him, and most recently, he came home with so many mosquito bites that he required medical attention. Once, the biological father brought him home so sick that he missed a week of school.

My gut tells me they are trying to injure the child, and I have serious doubts about their sincerity in wanting a relationship.

My daughter’s lawyer has been contacted, but is there anything we can do

in the interim to protect the boy from such horrible abuse? — Worried Grandma Dear Worried: Based on your information, we’re not certain this qualifies as “horrible abuse.” It seems more like neglect combined with incompetent parenting skills. The biological father and his parents have no clue how to properly treat or raise a 5-year-old boy.

The lawyer should go to the judge immediately with whatever documentation he has and ask for supervised visitation, and possibly mandate that the biological father take parenting classes. If you believe the boy is truly being abused, contact the National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-4224453.

Dear Annie: Thank you for printing the letter about celiac disease. I hope you have space for a letter about children who are severely food allergic.

The first anaphylactic reaction came at age 4.

The ER doctors explained

at the school lunch table with his friends and goes to ballgames, overnight camp and select restaurants. We continue to be vigilant. One crumb of wheat in his mouth would lead us to the ER. We are hopeful that somewhere in the universe someone will find a cure for this life-threatening and lifealtering allergy.

We would like to share some resources about food allergies with your readers. Please suggest they contact: Mothers of Children Having Allergies (mochallergies.org); Food Allergy Research and Education (foodallergy.org) (this is a merger of the Food Allergy Initiative and Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network); the Stanford Alliance for Food Allergy Research (foodallergies. stanford.edu); the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (aaaai.org/conditionsand-treatments/allergies/food-allergies.aspx).

— B. in Chicago Dear B.: Thank you so much for this excellent information on food allergies. We hope our readers will take advantage of these resources.

Woman treats friend’s kitchen like an all-you-can-eat buffet D E A R A B B Y : I have a friend who will help herself to anything in my fridge, Abigail pantry, etc.

Van Buren without asking.

She also Dear Abby will eat most if not all food that’s meant to be shared, such as appetizers and snacks at a social gathering.

Once she literally polished off an entire plate of appetizers before my guests arrived and I had nothing to feed them.

After she finishes the food, she often says, “Oh, I was starving!” I find myself hiding food from her when she comes over, or delaying putting treats out for guests until later in the party.

The most recent episode was when I was preparing food for my toddler.

While it was cooling on the counter, she helped herself to all of it.

She told me afterward she had consumed it.

So you see -- nothing is safe, not even a child’s meal.

Abby, how can I tell her

what she’s doing is wrong and rude? -- STUMPED IN STUDIO CITY, CALIF. DEAR STUMPED: Your friend may be a compulsive eater, but that’s no excuse for what she has been doing.

Tell her in plain English that you don’t like it when she helps herself to food without first asking, or hogging it when it has been prepared for a party.

Taking something that was meant for your toddler was over the top.

Say that if she’s feeling “starved” when she’s headed for your house, she should have a snack to take the edge off before arriving.

And if you see less of her because of your frankness, consider yourself lucky.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I and our toddler son were recently out to dinner. A woman walked past our table to the family next to us and gushed about how “beautiful” the couple’s daughter was.

Their child was the same age as our son, who is just as well-behaved.

I found it hurtful that a stranger would compliment one child and ignore the family seated at the next table.

My husband disagrees.

Am I wrong to be offended?

Do you think this was rude?

-- FURIOUS IN FLORIDA DEAR FURIOUS: I agree with your husband. I doubt the woman deliberately meant to slight your son.

All her attention was simply focused on the little girl.

DEAR ABBY: I always take my shower before I go to bed.

My friends take their showers in the morning.

Which one is correct?

I wouldn’t want to go to sleep dirty. -- GARY IN BROOKLYN DEAR GARY: The time of day one takes a shower is a matter of personal preference and lifestyle.

If you are a mechanic or do heavy physical labor, showering before you go to bed makes sense.

However, if your job requires working closely with the public or co-workers, then taking a shower in the morning before work is considerate.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Crazy people with ludicrous ideas are all around. One of those weird notions is just nuts enough to work. So listen up, you never know from where your next inspiration will come.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Should you know what everyone else is planning on before you make your move? Naw. Trust your gut. You’ve reason to be confident about your route. Commit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’ll gladly trade in your notions about how things should be in order to more fully and accept how things actually are.

But if all that gets complicated, just send love. Love will heal misunderstandings.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You may not know exactly where you belong, but you’re pretty sure you can find a better fit than you’ve experienced lately. Explore groups, schools and organizations until you hit that niche.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Repressed negativity? Unexpressed resentment? Express it now! An uninvolved third party or your private diary will be the sounding board you need. Once you get it off of your chest, you’ll feel energized.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You are almost caught up to where you want to be productivity-wise. The final 10 percent is always the hardest, and you can blame that on the law of diminishing returns.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Today the young people will busy themselves in developing their relationship with the outside world. The older people will take all they’ve learned and develop their internal world. The middle-aged people will do a little of both.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). As far as the heart’s demands go, yours is an uncomplicated scene now -- the generous-spirited and big lovers appeal to you, and the rest hold no draw.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Your secret beliefs can only benefit you if they are aligned in your favor. If not, you will be unhappily led to what you fear by your confirmation bias. Stay positive.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your attitude, not the circumstances at hand, will be what makes today’s business worth your while. When your gut says no, move quickly past. You can be open to possibilities without being open to all of the possibilities.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ve been industrious and now your busy mind needs time to recharge.

Lounge hard. Turn lounging into an art. After that, go to bed early so you can catch up on sleep.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your success equation is pretty straightforward. Seek out those who live the way you want to live and study them until you know what you need to know to do it, too.

NCAA board hands Big 5 more power The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — The biggest schools in college sports are about to get a chance to make their own rules.

Up first is likely finding a way to spend millions of dollars in new money — either in the form or stipends or fatter scholarships — on athletes across the country.

The NCAA Board of Directors voted 16-2 on Thursday to approve a historic package of changes that allows the five richest football conferences — the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac12 and SEC — to unilaterally change some of the rules that have applied to all Division I schools for years. The 65 universities in those leagues

will also benefit from a new, weighted voting system on legislation covering the 350 schools in Division I. “It does provide degrees of autonomy for the five highresource conferences,” said Wake Forest President Nathan Hatch, the board chairman and a key architect of the plan. “This is not complete autonomy. We’re still part of Division I, but I think it allows us to provide more benefits to student-athletes.”

A handful of university presidents who spoke at NCAA headquarters after the vote agreed on one thing: Paying athletes to play is off the table. And it’s very unlikely that the five leagues will de-

sign their own policies when it comes to infractions.

But there’s a good chance the five leagues will take steps to add money to scholarships or craft an athlete stipend intended to help cover the so-called full cost of attending college — costs beyond tuition, room and board and books and supplies. That will be millions more in spending by leagues that are already partners in multimilliondollar TV contracts to show off their top sports of football and basketball, raising fresh concerns about an arms race in college athletics.

It is certainly a dramatic new start for an organization that has come under increas-

ing criticism.

Already this year, the NCAA has agreed to settle two lawsuits for a combined $90 million and still awaits a judge’s decision on a federal lawsuit in which plaintiffs led

by Ed O’Bannon have argued college sports’ amateurism rules are anti-competitive and allow the organization to operate as an illegal cartel.

Also pending is a decision by the National Labor Relations Board on whether Northwestern football players can form what would be the first union for college athletes in U.S. history.

Durant withdraws from national team The Associated Press

Kevin Durant withdrew Thursday from the U.S. national team, the biggest loss yet for a weakening American squad that will go to Spain without the leading scorer on its last two gold medal winners.

The NBA’s MVP took part in the Americans’ training camp in Las Vegas last week, but then informed team officials that he wasn’t going to continue.

“Kevin reached out to Coach K and myself this afternoon and expressed that he is just physically and mentally drained from the NBA season

and his attention to his many responsibilities,’ USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo said in a statement. “He tried to give it a go at our recent Las Vegas training camp but felt coming out of camp that he was not prepared to fulfill the commitment he made to the team.”

Durant was the MVP of the world championship in 2010, leading the Americans to that title for the first time since 1994. The Oklahoma City star also started on their gold medal-winning team in the 2012 Olympics and led the Americans with 19.5 points per game.

His withdrawal comes less than a week after Indiana’s Paul George was lost to a broken right leg and follows previous withdrawals by AllStars Kevin Love, Blake Griffin and LaMarcus Aldridge, and NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard.

“This was an extremely difficult decision as I take great pride in representing our country,” Durant said. “I know that I owe it to my USA Basketball teammates to be totally invested in the experience. After going through training camp with USAB, I realized I could not fulfill my responsibilities to the team

from both a time and energy standpoint.

“I need to take a step back and take some time away, both mentally and physically in order to prepare for the upcoming NBA season. I will be rooting for USAB and look forward to future opportunities with them.”

The U.S. roster is down to 15 players. The Americans resume practicing next Thursday in Chicago and have to finalize a 12-man roster before the World Cup of Basketball begins in Spain on Aug. 30.

Westwood, McIlroy ride momentum at PGA The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Rory McIlroy showed no sign of letting up. Lee Westwood might just be getting started.

Momentum was a big theme Thursday in the opening round of the PGA Championship, and it even applied to Tiger Woods.

Except that Woods kept going the wrong direction.

Westwood followed up a season-best 63 four days ago at Firestone by matching his best score in a major championship. He made nine birdies

at Valhalla for a 6-under 65, giving him a share of the lead with Ryan Palmer and Kevin Chappell.

One shot behind was McIlroy, the No. 1 player and overwhelming favorite in the final major of the year.

McIlroy, coming off backto-back wins at the British Open and a World Golf Championship, overcame a wild double bogey on the par5 10th hole by running off four straight birdies. His eagle attempt on the 18th hole narrowly missed. He settled

for a 66, a solid start in his bid to become only the seventh player to win the last two majors of the year.

Woods achieved that feat twice, including at Valhalla in 2000. That now seems even longer than 14 years ago.

On a day when nearly half the field shot par or better, Woods opened with a 3-over 74. He hit two tee shots that missed the fairway by some 30 yards, hooked a 3-wood into a creek and hit a spectator with his tee shot on a par 3. His two best putts were for

par and bogey.

“It wasn’t very good,” Woods said.

He didn’t look very sharp.

In his last competitive round, Woods withdrew after eight holes at Firestone because of another back injury. He said his trainer was able to pop a joint back into place above the sacrum, eliminating the pain. But it apparently did little for the rust.

Woods wasn’t the only player who hit a few wild ones.

knowledge the new system may not quash every legal case or argument, those who helped draft this proposal believe it will give prominent schools greater leeway in addressing the amateurism model and other concerns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we sometimes have to go back to why do people file lawsuits?â&#x20AC;? said Kansas State President Kirk Schulz, who worked on the plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the action they want. It (autonomy) is going to help with some things, not all.â&#x20AC;?

The power conferences contend they need more flexibility to solve the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hottest controversies, including recruiting and health insurance, and complained long and loud over the past two years that change was critically important.

If the decision survives a 60-day override period, the transition to the new system could begin in January. Com-

missioners and school leaders from the power conferences have until Oct. 1 to create a wish list of areas where they want autonomy.

Any items that make the list would require majority approval from three of the five leagues and still will need the OK of at least 12 of the 20 presidents or chancellors on the expanded board of directors. Then, one representative from each of the 65 schools in the power-five leagues and three student-athletes from each conference would vote on each item. Passage would require 48 of the 80 votes and a simple majority of support from schools in at least three of the five conferences or a simple majority of all votes (41) and a simple majority from schools in four of the five leagues to pass.

NCAA President Mark Emmert also said the board could veto an autonomous rule change if it goes too far. He described that situation as â&#x20AC;&#x153;rare.â&#x20AC;?

the favorites, but are increasingly beatable with the losses of Durant and George, who were expected to fill the two starting forward spots.

Durant carried a young U.S. to the title four years ago in Turkey with a series of sensational performances, averaging 22.8 points and shattering a number of team offensive records. He set the American mark with 38 points in a semifinal victory over

Lithuania.

At 6-foot-10, Durant is big enough to play as a power forward internationally, creating a matchup nightmare for opponents who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t defend him on the perimeter. He led the tournament in 3-pointers attempted and made in the 2010 worlds.

He has averaged 19.9 points in 31 games in a U.S. jersey, shooting 48 percent from 3-point range.

PGA CONTINUED FROM 11A

Right when McIlroy was building momentum, he hooked his second shot on the par-5 10th hole over a fence and out-of-bounds, leading to a double bogey. He was more upset about a three-putt bogey on the next hole, but then Boy Wonder bounced back with four straight birdies to get right back into the mix.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whenever you are confident and you have some momentum on your side, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easier to do what I did today rather if everything is sort of going against you, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re struggling for form and you have a patch like that,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Everything is very much going his way right now. It was his 11th straight round under par, and his third straight round of 66.

The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tennessee is quickly discovering the frustration and fascination involved in having such a young team.

The Volunteers added a heralded 32-man recruiting class, and many of the newcomers will get substantial playing time this fall.

Tennessee coach Butch Jones has said on more than one occasion that patience was going to be tested this year as the Vols attempt to compete in the Southeastern Conference while relying on underclassmen.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This league is very unforgiving, especially if you play a lot of true freshmen,â&#x20AC;? Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you look at a lot of good players that have played in the SEC and you look at their play from their freshman year to their junior year to their senior year, it is remarkably different.â&#x20AC;?

Jones has said the Vols canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use their youth â&#x20AC;&#x153;as a crutch, an excuse.â&#x20AC;? Jones made his point Monday when he cancelled the playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; scheduled postpractice interviews because he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happy with the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice performance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was eye-opening for

a lot of the young guys because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not used to that from high school,â&#x20AC;? freshman receiver Vic Wharton said.

Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recruiting class was ranked among the top five in the nation by multiple services. One week into training camp, the newcomers already have made an impact. The offense has more big-play ability. The defense has more speed, something Jones expects to carry over to special teams as well.

This group knows itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being counted on to help Tennessee end a string of four straight losing seasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be maybe walking on â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Hillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and students come up to you and (say), â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready for you to bring Tennessee back,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? freshman cornerback Em662-594-3011 (LISTINGS FOR FRI 8/8/14 - SUN 8/10/2014) CALL THEATRE OR GO TO MALCO.COM FOR SHOW TIMES

manuel Moseley said.

The expectations surrounding this freshman class are evident from Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s media strategy. Six freshmen with family connections to former Tennessee athletes spoke to reporters before training camp. Over the last week, running back Jalen Hurd, kicker Aaron Medley, offensive tackle Coleman Thomas, tight end Ethan Wolf, Moseley and Wharton have been made available to the media. Last year, the only freshman who spoke to reporters was quarterback Joshua Dobbs, whose first media session came in November. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why not let them talk to the media because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have to play in front of hundreds of thousands of people all the time,â&#x20AC;? Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) part of the maturity factor as well.â&#x20AC;? The newcomers garnering the most attention are Hurd and receiver Josh Malone, who were both rated as five-star prospects by at least one recruiting service. Malone caught three touchdown passes and Hurd was Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading rusher in the spring game. But it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t only the elite recruits making an early statement. Moseley, a consensus three-star prospect, has worked with the firstteam defense throughout training camp. Moseley says he weighed 145 pounds during his January enrollment and now is up to 178.

Thomas, a three-star recruit who primarily played center in high school, is Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely starter at right tackle.

Wolf, Wharton, linebacker Dillon Bates and defensive linemen Derek Barnett and Dewayne Hendrix also have earned plenty of praise.

As training camp develops, these newcomers could get more lessons similar to the one they received after Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sluggish practice.

Jones said last week that â&#x20AC;&#x153;sometimes weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re too quick to anoint and crown individuals when they have a long way to go.â&#x20AC;?

Know where you are going; Know where you have been I overheard someone say that, “to know where you are going you need to know where you have been.”

I believe this is a true statement. It seems that many people don’t know the direction their life is going because Gary they have not Andrews taken a hard look at where Devotionals their life has been. For any of us to recognize where it is we want to be, we firmly have to have control of what we have done with our life so far.

If you look at you life and like the direction you have been and seem happy in the direction that you are headed then you are probably a person of satisfaction, dedication, determination, and outlook.

If you are a person that is unhappy and not proud of what has happened in the past then you are looking for the magic of a better tomorrow. The first thing you have to realize is that if you are not satisfied with what you have done with your life, then it’s you and only you that can make the change.

It starts with inner peace.

I believe it is a heart problem that some people will never overcome because they keep reaching for something without a proper attitude. Inner peace only comes when someone is happy with the direction their life is going and has been.

For many of you this inner peace will never come because you are reaching for the worldly desires of need, power, and

self gratification.

For those of us that know Jesus as our Lord and Savior, our lives have changed for the better. We are not caught us in keeping us with worldly desires or looking at earthly items for satisfaction. We know that our reward is in heaven and that comes when we go home to be with Jesus.

As we reflect on where our life has been, whether it be what we are proud of or not, Jesus has the final resting place for us. If we haven’t been faithful to Him or if we have been deceitful and untruthful to ourselves and others, there is still hope for you today. It is never too late to get on your knees and ask Jesus to be Lord and Master of your life. This begins with you and it should begin now!

Prayer: Thank you Lord Jesus for allowing me to know you personally. I admit that I am a sinner and accept your redeeming grace. Amen.

Nebraska church helps tornado victims recover The Associated Press

PILGER, Neb. — Nebraska families affected by June tornadoes are getting help in the form of new box springs, mattress and appliances.

The effort was coordinated by members of the Norfolk Church of Christ, who applied for the combination of 90 items and delivered them to 49 families in Pilger. Donations were provided by Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort Inc., a Nashville-based organization that responds to natural disasters throughout the country.

The Norfolk church also offered immediate help to tornado victims by setting up a relief center. Within two days after the storm, it was stocked with $90,000 in supplies. The relief center handed out hundreds of meal, infant care and personal hygiene kits. It also gave away clothing, linens, household items and cleaning supplies.

“We had the warehouse set up for people to stop in and get supplies, but we also loaded a truck up and went around the city with supplies and cold water to hand out and to communicate where we were located so they could get more,” said Jeff Schipper, minister of Norfolk Church of Christ.

He said one member of the

“Not only did the volunteering lift their spirits, but it also made short work of the daunting task of the initial cleanup.”

Jeff Schipper Minister, Norfolk Church of Christ church also rented a trailer to take some of the supplies to Coleridge so aid was also provided to tornado victims in Cedar County.

Schipper said he felt grateful that he and members of the church were in the position to help so many people.

“So many in Pilger talked about how moving and encouraging it was for them to see people from this area and from around the country there to help them,” he said. “Not only did the volunteering lift their spirits, but it also made short work of the daunting task of the initial cleanup. It would have taken generations for Pilger to clean up on its own.”

Two Bible Belt filmmakers expand box office horizons produce,” said Alex Kendrick, in a telephone interview from Charlotte, North Carolina.

“The point is to take the time, in prayer and research, to make a solid film and get the most ministry out of it before moving to the next one.”

The Kendricks began with a tiny production company with their pastor at Sherwood Baptist, but decided to strike out on their own with their fifth film. The brothers say the separation was amicable and necessary for them to grow as filmmakers and recruit actors and crew nationwide.

In previous movies, the brothers mostly used volunteers from their church though one of their more popular movies, “Fireproof,” did include Kirk Cameron, a veteran actor memorably known starting in the 80s for his youthful role in a popular TV sitcom, “Growing Pains.”

“The people we’ve gotten to meet who have expertise in areas that we have needed help have come to the table,” said Stephen Kendrick. “And we’re growing as filmmakers.”

They’re also giving back. The brothers are using the fruits of their success to help upand-coming filmmakers with projects, as well as mentor a younger generation of hopefuls. During their recent filming, they brought in about 20 interns from different universities who worked under professionals involved in the making of the film.

“We believe every generation needs to be pouring into and investing in the next generation,” Stephen Kendrick said.

“Hopefully, they’ll be able to stand on our shoulders one day and make even better movies.”

The Kendricks — both ministers who sport salt-and-pepper

The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — It’s the Hollywood ending every studio wants: Low-cost production and high returns at the box office.

Filmmakers Alex and Stephen Kendrick seem to have the formula down — grossing nearly $80 million on four films made for less than $4 million combined. Only thing is the Kendrick brothers work far from Hollywood and, outside the world of Christianthemed cinema, many have never heard of their films.

That could change.

Increasingly, major studios appear to be taking a leap for faith-based audiences with biblical epics such as “Noah” starring Russell Crowe, the planned December release of “Exodus” and a remake of “Ben-Hur” for early 2016.

At one point in April, there were four faith-based movies in the Top 20 at the box office, including “Heaven Is for Real,” about a 4-year-old boy’s account of his trip to heaven.

It has grossed more than $99 million on a production budget of $12 million by Sony Pictures.

“Hollywood has taken note,” said DeVon Franklin, former Sony senior vice president of production, who oversaw “Heaven Is for Real.”

The Kendrick brothers — who just wrapped up filming their fifth project — are making movies that could see wider release as distributors pay attention to the box office trends in the traditional Bible Belt and beyond.

Their latest film, which has yet to have a title, centers on a family realizing the power of prayer.

“The point is not racing to see how many movies we can

beards — grew up in suburban Atlanta and now live in Albany in southwestern Georgia.

They are still part of the ministry team at the Sherwood megachurch. Along with the church’s senior pastor, Michael Catt, they created Sherwood Pictures in 2002 and scraped together $20,000 to put out their first film, “Flywheel,” in 2003 about a dishonest used car salesman who learns integrity.

With a budget of $100,000, the company released “Facing the Giants” in 2006. That film — about having courage amid adversity — ended up grossing more than $10 million, appearing in a little over 400 theaters primarily in the South. Then came “Fireproof,” a story about a couple struggling to make their marriage work. That movie was made with a budget of just $500,000 and grossed over $33 million.

“That was what I would call the dawning of the new era of independent Christian films,” said Ben Howard, senior vice president of Provident Films, a division of Sony Music Entertainment that focuses on the Christian audience.

“Courageous,” a film about fatherhood, was released in 2011 and made more than $34 million on a $2 million budget.

The fifth Kendrick brothers’ movie is expected to cost at least $3 million.

Box office analyst Paul Dergarabedian said the Kendricks’ earlier movies “weren’t what anyone would consider blockbusters in the conventional sense of the word.

“But the success of those films probably influenced filmmakers, studios, producers, distributors, to look at this genre as a viable, potentially money-making genre.”

Religion Briefs The Associated Press

American with Ebola weak, improving ATLANTA -- A second American who came down with Ebola in Liberia is now hospitalized in Atlanta.

SIM missionary Nancy Writebol has joined Samaritan’s Purse’s Dr. Kent Brantly at Emory University Hospital, where they’re being given an experimental treatment that has never before been tested on humans.

SIM USA President Bruce Johnson says he looks forward to praying with her and “telling her some of the stories of how God has made a way for her to come here.”

Johnson says he spoke with her husband, who’s still in Liberia. David Writebol said his wife was able to stand and get on the plane with assistance. When she arrived in Atlanta, she entered the hospital on a stretcher.

Johnson says SIM has spent nearly $1 million since Writebol and Brantly were diagnosed with Ebola, and Samaritan’s Purse has spent more than $1 million. He says the missionaries’ medical evacuation insurance may cover some of the cost.

Pittsburgh Episcopals OK same-sex marriage certificates PITTSBURGH -- The Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh says its clergy may sign marriage certificates for same-sex couples.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports the new rule is spelled out in a letter to the diocese from Bishop Dorsey McConnell.

The Episcopal Church approved a provisional

rite for same-sex couples at its General Convention last year, subject to approval by local bishops.

In approving the rite for use in the Pittsburgh diocese last year, McConnell did not order diocesan priests to perform same-sex marriages, but simply gave them the option to perform them if their conscience dictated. That was before a federal judge in May struck down Pennsylvania’s law defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman, effectively making same-sex marriage legal in the state.

Diocesan spokesman Rich Creehan said the latest move gives clergy who choose to marry same-sex couples the power to issue legally binding marriage certificates.

Judge says prayer injunction remains for Virginia county board meetings DANVILLE, Va. -- A judge says he won’t dissolve an injunction barring Virginia’s Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors from opening meetings with sectarian prayers.

An opinion filed by U.S. District Judge Michael Urbanski says a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling doesn’t support dissolving the injunction.

In May, the Supreme Court upheld the practice of reciting prayers at the start of the Greece Town Board’s meetings in Greece, New York. The Pittsylvania County board cited the ruling in its motion to dissolve or modify Urbanski’s injunction.

Urbanksi says the Pittsylvania County case is different. He says the board took an active role in leading the prayers and dictating their content.

Crossroads Weekly Serving Alcorn County

Wednesday, July 2, 2014

Travis Childers attending Fourth of July Jacinto Festival Prentiss County native Travis Childers, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, has conďż˝rmed he will be one of the candidates to speak at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jacinto Fourth of July Festival.

Mississippi Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves has also conďż˝rmed he will visit Jacinto on Independence Day. With a few days to go until this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival, Reeves is thus far the only statelevel candidate to conďż˝rm.

Also joining the political speaking during the Jacinto Fourth of July Festival are Gina Rogers Smith, Alcorn Coun-

ty superintendent of education; Ben Gann, candidate for Corinth police chief; and Bobby Marolt, chancery clerk, who is also serving as the master of ceremonies.

None of the incumbent congressional leaders have indicated that they will attend.

Others attending are Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin; Jennifer McCoy, candidate for Corinth alderman at large; Danny Bedwell, candidate for U.S. House; and District 2 Rep. Nick Bain of Corinth.

Vendors will offer the usual

assortment of arts, crafts and food.

In this quieter year, there is no deadline for vendors. Space assignments will be made on Thursday, but sellers can still show up on Friday and get a spot.

The festival also offers an opportunity to tour the old courthouse, view the museum exhibits and learn about the Chucalissa Indians, who will perform traditional dances.

(For vendor reservations or other information, call 2868662.)

Person of the Week

Jeff Allen Biggersville Fire and Rescue Chief Jeff Allen is Crossroads Weekly Person of the Week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to give back to the community. I love helping people anyway I can,â&#x20AC;? said the chief. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone has a purpose in life. I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found my purpose here.â&#x20AC;?

Allen started out pulling hoses and eventually went on to lead others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started in 1998 and have never regretted it. I have been doing this for 16 years now.

I was inactive for a couple of years to stay at home with our daughter who we adopted in 2004, on the weekends,â&#x20AC;? said Allen, who oversees 23 members at two stations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good group of folks. When you have a good group of folks, life and work is a whole lot easier.â&#x20AC;?

While only a part-time job, working at the station can seem like a full-time career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They make it a lot easier to divide up the responsibilities,â&#x20AC;? said Allen, who is proud of his team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know I can call on anyone of them to help out and it will get done.â&#x20AC;?

Before becoming a �re�ghter, Allen was an operations spe-

cialist in the U.S. Navy, serving from 1993 to 1997 aboard the U.S.S. Thorn and as a Military Policeman (MP) and Cavalry Scout in the Mississippi Army National Guard.

In addition to working with Biggersville Fire and Rescue, Allen has been a programmer at CM solutions for 10 years and he also serves as a freelance photographer for the Daily Corinthian.

The 1987 Biggersville High School graduate holds two Associate of Arts degrees, one in electronics and the other in auto cadd from Northeast Mississippi Community College.

He is currently pursuing an online elementary education degree through Mississippi State.

When not at work or hitting the books, the Biggersville native enjoys spending time with his wife, Bea, who also works for the �re station.

The 44-year-old is the father of Nicole Allen and the stepfather of William and Phillip Hutchinson.

In his spare time, he enjoys �shing, metal detecting, hunting arrowheads and watching Mississippi State football.
