‘Pigeon drop’ makes holiday return BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Crossroads area women driving or walking alone should watch their backs this holiday season. Corinth Police Chief Ralph Dance says it’s a scam that seems to return every year.

“The same thing starts happening around this time,” he said. “Women who are out in public alone become victims for others to attempt to take advantage of.” Dance confirmed a grand larceny robbery took place recently where two black women per-

suaded a local woman to give up a sum of money in order to secure rights to a larger sum of money. “This is called the pigeon drop and unfortunately it seems to happen around Corinth every Christmas,” he said. “With pigeon drops, the victim is usually left with nothing.”

Dance said surveillance was captured of the robbers and the photos matched those captured from the same type of robbery in Corinth last December. “We believe these two woman are coming back to town each year, scamming someone and then moving on to the next

Sheriff seeks auditor demand settlement

Prehistoric visit

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved the reallocation of more than $81,000 from prior correctional facility expenditures as Sheriff Charles Rinehart moves toward settling the civil demand served by the state auditor’s office. The action came in a threehour closed session that included discussion with Rinehart’s attorneys and a representative of the auditor’s office. Information presented to the Board of Supervisors indicates the

Dinosaurs set to roam Crossroads Arena BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Crossroads Arena is taking a step back in time. The facility is headed back to the period when dinosaurs roamed the earth this weekend. “Discover the Dinosaurs” is

set for both Saturday and Sunday at the arena. The dinosaur exhibit contains eight to 10 scenes with each scene representing dinosaurs from a period of time that best reflects when they lived. “This is going to be an ex-

town to do the same thing,” Dance said. The chief is asking that no one allow a person inside their vehicle they do not know. “If they are asking for money in exchange for money, then it’s a scam and you should call the police,” he added.

original demand amount of $181,161.93 has been reduced to $146,465.63. Rinehart and attorneys Tony Farese and Mike Holleman met with the auditor’s office on Nov. 16 to discuss the demand. “I think there is no disagreement that there are no funds missing,” Board Attorney Bill Davis said after the meeting concluded. “It’s invested out there in the facility or it’s in the clothing or it’s in the equipment — the radios, the computers. It just didn’t come from the right source.” Please see DEMAND | 2A

Warming the flesh as well as the heart, Little’s Jewelers and Gingers of Corinth are combining their efforts to host a special holiday shopping event, entitled “Baby It’s Cold Outside.” To be held from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 3, the two stores will be alive with the joyous sounds of the season as customers shop with an exceptional goal in mind.

DEMAND CONTINUED FROM 1A

Helping Havis’ Kids The Corinth-Alcorn County Special Needs Kids (Havis’ Kids) are putting their best foot forward to raise money for a trip to Disney World in 2016. Charlie Ayers (left), Kaylee Dixon and Havis Hurley will be at Austin’s Shoes on Thursday for a fundraiser. The 4-7 p.m. event will see 10 percent of sales donated to the special needs children for the trip. Those who purchase an item will be entered to win a $50 gift card from Austin’s and two $25 gift cards from Havis’ Kids. The group also has fundraisers set for Zaxby’s on Dec. 8 from 5-8 p.m. and McAlister’s on Dec. 22 from 5-9 p.m.

The reallocation of $81,639.96 involves expenditures for which the money came from the wrong fund per statute or contract. “For example, the technology fund was limited to software maintenance,” said Davis. “The sheriff had used some of those funds to buy computers. That’s hardware, not software. With respect to the commissary account and the inmate welfare account, there is a particular statute that says those funds have to be expended on educational related expenses or to purchase equipment and supplies for the benefit of the inmates. There were various expenditures there that were made for supplies that did benefit the inmates but, as the A.G. has interpreted the statute, weren’t the right kind of benefits for the inmates.” The board held out two items for further investigation — a payment of $55,166.69 on the inmate recreational facility and an expenditure of $9,658.98 for a dozen computers. Davis said the board is researching whether bid laws were properly followed on those items. The board also deferred action on a couple of items that needed clarification on the amounts — one for $437 and one for $3,818. In order to complete the reallocation of funds, the county will pursue a payment arrangement with the auditor’s office, because there are not enough funds in hand. Josh Campbell, representing the auditor’s office, told the board an agreement with terms not longer than a year would be permissible. Apart from the items in the civil demand, the board also voted to send $67,631.15 to the auditor’s office for funds from the inmate phone service that should have been directed to the Mississippi Department of Corrections. It is an item that recently came to light. “For whatever reason when the facility was constructed, MDOC did not set up a separate account for those funds to get paid straight to MDOC,” said Davis. “They’ve been accumulating in one of the accounts at the Alcorn County Correctional Facility. They just never got moved.” Rinehart’s criminal case is pending in circuit court.

DINOSAURS CONTINUED FROM 1A

The walk-through exhibit is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $15 for adults, Child Exhibit Plus are $19 and Senior Citizens tickets cost $12. Child Exhibit Plus tickets include Dinosaur Exhibit (Dino Dig, Dino Den, Dino Theater, Dino Coloring Station, Scavenger Hunt) while Plus includes Unlimited Dinosaurs Rides, Mini Golf and Inflatables. Gem & Fossil Mining and Face Painting require separate tickets and are sold on-site only. “Tickets are good for one day,” added Emerson. “People can come and stay all day or they can leave and come back.” Around 33 dinosaurs will be on display as the show is using 42,000-sq.

feet of the arena floor. Dinosaurs such as a 20-foot T-Rex, life-sized Triceratops, Iguanodon, Apatosaurus and Stegosaurus will come to life during the weekend. “Kids will be able to learn about dinosaurs,” said Emerson. “We like to make learning fun so there will be dinosaurs which move and roar.” The exhibit has people already calling the box office about tickets, according to general manager Tammy Genovese. “It has created a big buzz,” said Genovese. “We had one family call from Dallas about tickets … it will be a good weekend for people to be out and about.” Advance tickets can be purchased at www.DiscoverTheDinosaurs.com. Tickets on the day of the event can be purchased at the arena box office.

Today in History

Across the Region Deputies arrest 3 in Myrtle burglary

Today is Wednesday, Dec. 2, the 336th day of 2015. There are 29 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 2, 1995, NASA launched the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a joint project of the United States and the European Space Agency, on a $1 billion mission to study the sun and interplanetary space; since then, SOHO has discovered 3,000 comets.

On this date: In 1804, Napoleon crowned himself Emperor of the French. In 1823, President James Monroe outlined his doctrine opposing European expansion in the Western Hemisphere. In 1859, militant abolitionist John Brown was hanged for his raid on Harpers Ferry the previous October. Artist Georges-Pierre Seurat was born in Paris. In 1927, Ford Motor Co. unveiled its Model A automobile that replaced its Model T. In 1942, an artificially created, self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction was demonstrated for the first time at the University of Chicago. In 1954, the U.S. Senate passed, 67-22, a resolution condemning Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, R-Wis., saying he had “acted contrary to senatorial ethics and tended to bring the Senate into dishonor and disrepute.” In 1961, Cuban leader Fidel Castro declared himself a Marxist-Leninist who would eventually lead Cuba to Communism. In 1970, the newly created Environmental Protection Agency opened its doors; its first director was William D. Ruckelshaus. In 1982, in the first operation of its kind, doctors at the University of Utah Medical Center implanted a permanent artificial heart in the chest of retired dentist Dr. Barney Clark, who lived 112 days with the device.

MYRTLE — Three people are in jail and facing several charges after a Saturday night burglary in Myrtle. Union County Sheriff Jimmy Edwards told WTVA, Jason Keith Schaefer, of Blue Mountain, and Kelly Bennett, of Hickory Flats, burglarized a truck and work shop. “They stole all kinds of things,” Edwards said. “It’s actually very surprising to see the amount of goods they were able to take off with in one burglary.” Deputies arrested the two men around 5 p.m. Sunday at the Budget Inn in New Albany. There, investigators found several power tools, tires, an air compressor, a Yeti Cooler and a Browning Deer Rifle, which was taken from the victim’s truck. Kimberly Nicole Johnson, of Ripley, was also arrested at the motel for possession of drug paraphernalia. Schaefer is charged with burglary of a commercial building and possession of drug paraphernalia. Bennett also faces those charges, as well as possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Burglarizing any building that’s not considered a home is considered a commercial building, according to Edwards. All three are being held at the Union County Jail until bond is set.

Adamsville to hold Christmas parade ADAMSVILLE, Tenn. — The Adamsville Christmas Parade will be held on Thursday, Dec. 3. The parade is set to begin at 6:30 p.m. and will begin at the Adamsville Food Mart (formerly BP). Adamsville High School’s state championship band will perform in the parade again this year. The Adamsville High School region champion football team will participate in the parade as well. There is no entry fee for the parade. All participants are asked to donate a new toy to the

Angel Tree. Adamsville’s Christmas Parade will alter their normal west to east parade route to go this year from east to west. The parade will end at the Sunrise Market. Louise Smith, a 99-year-old proud citizen of Adamsville, will be the grand marshal of this year’s parade. The judge’s stand will be at the Farmers and Merchants Bank.

Festival of Trees, parade set Friday IUKA — The annual Festival of Trees kicks off Friday in the historic courtroom of the Old Courthouse Museum in Iuka. Trees decorated and donated by approximately 20 businesses will grace the courthouse. On Friday, following the Iuka Christmas Parade, the Museum will be open nightly to the public for viewing of the trees. Trees can be viewed through Dec. 18.

McNairy County plans for Christmas SELMER, Tenn, — The Fourth Annual McNairy County Christmas will be held Saturday, Dec. 5. The event includes a Breakfast with Santa, free Christmas movies at the Latta Building, Christmas Parade and more. A highlight of the annual event has been the lining of Main Street with Christmas Trees. Local businesses, churches and organizations have sponsored the trees and decorated them in a variety of designs, colors and styles. According to event organizers, Christmas Trees are still available for the event. The cost to sponsor a tree is $50 and proceeds will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House. (For more information, contact 731-610-6746 or 731-610-6328.)

Buy body cameras, city council urges TUPELO — The Tupelo City Council is asking the Tupelo Police Department to purchase and install body cameras on officers.

Chief Aguirre says many police departments are going in this direction, and having them installed could help change the temperament between law enforcement officers and the public. “We have a lot of people that will go to their council men and they will ask why the Tupelo Police Department had handled the situation in a certain way,” Aguirre told WTVA. “This allows us to present to them the actual footage of that.” Monday night, the city council along with the police department will discuss what brand of body cameras they plan on purchasing. Patrol Captain Charles McDouglad says having this tool will be helpful since the footage gathered can be used in a courtroom. “They would be something else to make me feel like I could build a case,” McDouglad said. “And also give my officers more evidence in the case.” Chief Aguirre also adds it will make both the officers and the public become more aware of their actions. “Well it will make them feel safer,” Aguirre added. “It will also make them more aware of their actions, and how they treat and handle people as well.” The patrol division will start using them first while they test different cameras out. Don’t be surprised if you spot some this month. Aguirre is asking the board to use Watch Guard as the provider. The company currently provides the dash cameras used by the department. The money used on the new devices will come from the Tupelo Police Departments tobacco fund.

Furniture market launches website TUPELO — The Tupelo Furniture Market recently launched a newly designed website at www.tupelofurnituremarket.com. According to market officials, the site is more aesthetically pleasing and, most importantly, easier to navigate, allowing furniture retailers and potential exhibiting companies a way to quickly find new and important information about the upcoming market event. Details on market specials—including product close-outs, special discounts and new product offerings— will now be posted and easily found on the website. Kevin J. Seddon, president of the Tupelo market, said this is the second redesign of the site in the last two years, but it was instituted earlier than planned because the market is introducing several new programs and it’s important that they are clearly communicated to retailers. Also, numerous companies have already contracted to exhibit, and many of them will introduce products that have never been shown in Tupelo. “This upcoming February market looks very promising,” said Seddon. “We have been fortunate in that we have now become one of the leading bedding markets in the country with more than 40 companies already contracted this spring—and we want to make that known to retailers.” The website also includes a new section outlining the recently added Design Center located in building II of the market. Seddon also

explained there will be incredible specials on outdoor furniture, reinforcing how information about these positive changes taking place at the Tupelo market can now be quickly found at the new website. (Those interested in learning about market specials, registering to attend or looking to find exhibit space leasing information should visit the Tupelo Furniture Market website at www.tupelofurnituremarket.com.)

Man charged with aggravated assault OXFORD — A Leland man was taken into custody after a victim told police she was suffocated and choked. Oxford police received a report of the domestic assault on Nov. 26. According to authorities, the victim said her boyfriend, 28-year-old Brenton Morgan, tried suffocating her with a pillow and choking her with his hand. Morgan was arrested for domestic violence aggravated assault. His bond was set at $10,000.

Officers, family will honor fallen deputy RIPLEY — The late DeWayne Arlyn Crenshaw will be honored in front of the Tippah County Sheriff’s Department near his memorial at 1 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 3. The public is invited to join local law enforcement, Crenshaw’s family and friends as they pay tribute. The program is expected to last approximately 30 minutes. Deputy Crenshaw was killed in the line of duty by someone pressumed to be under the influence of bath salts. Following his death, legislators passed “The Dewayne Crenshaw Bill” which outlaws chemicals used in bath salts that can be used to get high. “I hope I have half the courage this man had,” said Sheriff Karl Gaillard. “I feel honored to be asked to speak at this service, but I don’t feel worthy. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do in my life.”

Corinth, Miss.

There’s salesmanship, there’s pure deception OXFORD — There’s nothing new about the need for buyers to beware, but the Internet has provided a whole new arena for deception. Emails offering halfsies from desperate widows seeking to transfer $75 million and alerts telling us we won $2 million euro in lotteries we didn’t enter are one thing. We should be able to see through those. Same for a lot of product reviews and guest comments. There are many honest brokers in e-commerce who proCharlie vide us with information, vaMitchell riety, fair prices and deliver as promised. Columnist But there are also insidious tactics and practices. Some rise near the level of extortion. And even the most wary “shopper” may not be able to detect the scam. An example: Let’s say Bob has a men’s clothing store in Hattiesburg. If he’s like 99 percent of all business owners he will want some sort of presence on the Internet, so he’ll hire a school kid to create a Facebook page or a website. Within a couple of days, Bob may hear from an information aggregator. The message will tell Bob he can really boost his presence on the worldwide web by paying the company a small monthly fee for its services. If he does, Bob gets the blessing of favorable filtering for his fee. No one will check his merchandise, verify his prices or anything else, but Bob’s shop will be “recommended.” If Bob doesn’t ante up, you’d think, well, that would be that. But, no. When anyone in the area searches for “men’s clothing,” Bob’s shop will either not appear or appear as “not recommended.” Any negative comments, real or concocted, will be given prominence. Favorable ratings will disappear. So, fine. As long as Bob has built a clientele who like him and his store, no problem. But new business? Because Bob declined to participate in today’s equivalent of a protection racket, anyone who checks the Internet will think, well, he doesn’t measure up. Better shop somewhere else. In another enterprising approach to treachery, about three years ago, someone discovered a way to profit from arrest records. Say a businessman gets a DUI in Las Vegas or a PTA mom is nabbed for shoplifting. Still, theses entrepreneurs find the record, contact the businessman and the PTA mom and demand payment to keep the report out of their online database. Fees from $500 to $5,000 would be paid out of fear the information would turn up in a background check. And guess what? The arrest report doesn’t disappear. All the entrepreneurs promised is they would keep it out of their database; they can’t erase public files. The scammers have the money and are long gone. As might be expected, state and federal lawmakers are being asked to step in, to stop such deception, to protect us. Maybe rulewriters will take some action — require disclosures and such — and maybe they won’t. The challenge is the difficulty of diving into the gray area between unethical conduct and illegal conduct, of redrawing where the dividing line will be. Today, a “good health” segment on the “news” just happens to feature the great work being done at the clinic or hospital that also buys a lot of commercials. Similarly, the anniversary of a car dealership or a department store is newsworthy in the printed press in proportion to the amount of advertising purchased by the dealership or store. Researchers say that unlike “back in the day,” consumers are not as wary. Today’s consumers want information about products, services, destinations and such, period. They don’t care whether the information is neutral, but do care whether it is factual and reliable. And that’s the only rub, really, with this new wave of insidiousness. There is often no way to tell whether a recommendation is real or whether it has been purchased. Thanksgiving is behind us, so the frenzy of shopping and travel is at its annual peak. Only one admonition fits: Be careful out there. (Charlie Mitchell is a Mississippi journalist. Write to him at cmitchell43@yahoo.com.)

Prayer for today Lord God, I pray that thou wilt provide me with thy indwelling peace. May it keep me reconciled to the decline of years, and enable me to bear the earthly separation from those whom I love. May I always have hope and trust in thee. Amen.

A verse to share “And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” — Luke 14:23

History returns violently in Mediterranean Sometimes you can learn something about today’s world from a history book – even a book about obscure characters in a longago time in a far-away corner of the planet, featuring conflicts between regimes that ceased existing at least a century ago. For me, one such book has been “Agents of Empire,” by the Oxford historian Noel Malcolm, gaudily subtitled “Knights, Corsairs, Jesuits and Spies in the Sixteenth-Century Mediterranean World.” The subjects of the book, members of two intermarried Albanian families, the Bruni and Bruti, filled all those roles in the years from 1560 to 1600. They started off in Ulcinj, a small port on the Adriatic Sea in presentday Montenegro that in the 1560s was part of the sea-connected mercantile empire of the Republic of Venice. The Bruni and Bruti got around. Giovanni Bruni was a Jesuit and archbishop who took a lead role in 1563 at the Council of Trent, which launched the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Gasparo Bruni was a Knight of Malta who fought the Huguenots in the papal enclave of Avignon in France. Bartolomeo Bruti soldiered for the Habsburgs’

Holy Roman Empire and then, with the help of a grand vizier who was an Albanian Michael cousin, adBarone m i n i s t e r e d the voivod Columnist of Moldavia, covering parts of current Romania and Moldova. Cristoforo Bruti spent his career as a dragoman (translator) in the Ottoman capital of Constantinople. Many family members met unhappy ends. Standard histories depict this period as one of struggle between the Muslim Ottoman Empire and Christian Europe. But it was a good deal more complicated than that. France and, briefly, Elizabeth I of England sought alliances with the Ottomans against the Habsburgs who headed both the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of Spain, plus the southern Italian Kingdom of Naples. The history maps showing clear national borders and a solid line dividing Christendom and Islam turn out to be misleading. The borders were porous; family and commercial ties often proved stronger than national or re-

ligious loyalty. Key Ottoman officials and generals were originally Albanian or Italian Christians. Some re-converted to Christianity. There was a constant trade in capturing and ransoming Christian and Muslim hostages, in which the families were active and lucrative participants. Both families made and, through military or political misfortunes, lost great wealth. This disorderly world in some ways resembles what is happening in and around the Mediterranean in our times. Sixteenth-century pirates were a constant threat to the forces of Spain, the Knights of Malta and Venice. Today we see smugglers ferrying thousands of people from the Middle East and North Africa to touch down with the bounds of the European Union. My takeaway from Malcolm’s book is that his disorderly Mediterranean world, where rules are flouted, boundaries are readily penetrated and allegiances are transitory, is similar in character today. In contrast, northern Europe, after the horrifying Thirty Years’ War was ended by the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, was divided into relatively coherent nations, with cultures in which rules

were established and mostly observed, so that commerce and industry boomed – even during and after horrific wars from 1793-1815 and 1914-1945. To this model, offshore Britain and its American offshoot were a salutary variant, with their common law, religious toleration and parliamentary representation seeming to become a model for the world after the great victories of 1945 and 1989-1991. Now that model seems to be in danger of abandonment. The disorderly Mediterranean with its economic stagnation and rule-flouting culture seems to be infecting northern Europe as it is stormed by hundreds of thousands of refugees and Islamist terrorists with roots in the old Ottoman lands. Many of today’s Brunis and Brutis are suffering the fates of their predecessors. And America is no longer safely offshore.

Stumbling to war with Russia? Turkey’s decision to shoot down a Russian warplane was a provocative and portentous act. That Sukhoi Su-24, which the Turks say intruded into their air space, crashed and burned – in Syria. One of the Russian pilots was executed while parachuting to safety. A Russian rescue helicopter was destroyed by rebels using a U.S. TOW missile. A Russian marine was killed. “A stab in the back by the accomplices of terrorists,” said Vladimir Putin of the first downing of a Russian warplane by a NATO nation in half a century. Putin has a point, as the Russians are bombing rebels in northwest Syria, some of which are linked to al-Qaida. As it is impossible to believe Turkish F-16 pilots would fire missiles at a Russian plane without authorization from President Tayyip Recep Erdogan, we must ask: Why did the Turkish autocrat do it? Why is he risking a clash with Russia? Answer: Erdogan is probably less outraged by intrusions into his air space than by Putin’s success in securing the Syrian regime of Bashar Assad, whom Erdogan detests, and by relentless Russian air strikes on Turkmen rebels seeking to overthrow Assad. Imperiled strategic goals and ethnicity may explain Erdogan. But what does the Turkish president see down

at the end of this road? And what about us? Was the U.S. government aware TurPat key might atBuchanan tack Russian planes? Did Columnist we give Erdogan a green light to shoot them down? These are not insignificant questions. For Turkey is a NATO ally. And if Russia strikes back, there is a possibility Ankara will invoke Article V of NATO and demand that we come in on their side in any fight with Russia. And Putin was not at all cowed. Twenty-four hours after that plane went down, his planes, ships and artillery were firing on those same Turkmen rebels and their jihadist allies. Politically, the Turkish attack on the Sukhoi Su-24 has probably aborted plans to have Russia join France and the U.S. in targeting ISIS, a diplomatic reversal of the first order. As for what strategy and solution President Obama offers, and how exactly he plans to achieve it, it remains an enigma. Nor is this the end of the alarming news. According to The Times of Israel, Damascus reports that, on Monday, Israel launched four strikes, killing five Syrian soldiers and

eight Hezbollah fighters, and wounding others. Should Assad or Hezbollah retaliate, this could bring Israel more openly into the Syrian civil war. Yet, should we accede to that pressure, it could bring us into direct conflict with Russia, which is now the fighting ally of the Assad regime. Something U.S. presidents conscientiously avoided through 45 years of Cold War — a military clash with Moscow — could become a real possibility. Does the White House see what is unfolding here? In southern Ukraine, pylons supporting the power lines that deliver electricity to Crimea have been sabotaged, blown up, reportedly by nationalists, shutting off much of the electric power to the peninsula. Repair crews have been prevented from fixing the pylons by Crimean Tatars, angry at the treatment of their kinfolk in Crimea. In solidarity with the Tatars, Kiev has declared that trucks carrying goods to Crimea will not be allowed to cross the border. A state of emergency has been declared in Crimea. Russia is retaliating, saying it will not buy produce from Ukraine, and may start cutting off gas and coal as winter begins to set in. Ukraine is as dependent upon Russia for fossil fuels as Crimea is upon Ukraine

for electricity. Crimea receives 85 percent of its water and 80 percent of its electricity from Ukraine. Moreover, Moscow’s hopes for a lifting of U.S. and EU sanctions, imposed after the annexation of Crimea, appear to be fading. Are these events coordinated? Has the U.S. government given a go-ahead to Erdogan to shoot down Russian planes? Has Obama authorized a Ukrainian economic quarantine of Crimea? For Vladimir Putin is not without options. The Russian Army and pro-Russian rebels in southeast Ukraine could occupy Mariupol on the Black Sea and establish a land bridge to Crimea in two weeks. In Syria, the Russians, with 4,000 troops, could escalate far more rapidly than either us or our French allies. As of today, Putin supports U.S.-French attacks on ISIS. But if we follow the Turks and begin aiding the rebels who are attacking the Syrian army, we could find ourselves eyeball to eyeball in a confrontation with Russia, where our NATO allies will be nowhere to be found. Has anyone thought this through? (Daily Corinthian columnist Pat Buchanan is an American conservative political commentator, author, syndicated columnist, politician and broadcaster.)

Silver carp could negatively affect food chain Associated Press

JACKSON — Wildlife officials are concerned that an invasive species of fish recently caught in the Pearl River below the Ross Barnett Reservoir spillway could negatively affect the aquatic food chain. Mississippi Department of Wildlife Fisheries and Parks biologists confirmed the silver carp

catch, The Clarion-Ledger reported. According to biologists, the fish, also called flying carp because of their high-flying antics when frightened, can cause greater problems. “That’s the impact people realize, but they don’t realize the impact on the food chain,” MDWFP Fisheries Bureau biologist Dennis Riecke said.

Riecke said the silver carp feed on phytoplankton, which are at the base of the food chain. This can produce a significant ripple factor if the silver carp become abundant, because by reducing the amount of phytoplankton, the carp reduce the food source for native baitfish and other fry species. Riecke said how the

carp got here is a matter of speculation. Some feel the culprit could be the Bonnet Carre Spillway, which is located near New Orleans. It’s a control structure that allows the diversion of Mississippi River waters, where silver carp have long been established, into Lake Pontchartrain during floods. According to Riecke, that could have allowed the

carp access to Lake Pontchartrain and the Pearl River system. Riecke said silver carp can reach weights in excess of 70 pounds, which leaves them with few predators. “Once they get past the juvenile stage, they need a big predator to feed on them because of their large size,” Riecke said. With few predators to

control the numbers of silver carp, Riecke said it’s important for anglers to understand the situation and prevent them from spreading. “If bait is captured below the spillway, it should only be used in that spillway,” Riecke said. “We don’t want non-native species in a water body that they aren’t already in.”

2 election challenges heading to state House committee BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — A Democrat who lost a primary in Pike and Walthall counties and a Republican who lost in the general election in Smith and Jasper counties are trying to have election results overturned so they can become Mississippi House members. Five-term Rep. David Myers said he is confident the House will dismiss arguments from Tasha Dillon, the primary opponent he defeated by 144 votes.

“She’s acting as a sore loser,” Myers told The Associated Press by phone Tuesday. “I beat her fair and square — twice.” Dillon also ran against Myers in 2011. Both are from McComb, and they ran in District 98 in Pike and Walthall counties. Certified results show Myers received 2,003 votes to Dillon’s 1,859 in the Aug. 4 primary. Myers was unopposed in the Nov. 3 general election. Dillon sued in Pike County Circuit Court in September, seeking to overturn the primary loss.

In that suit, she questioned how votes were counted and said Myers, his campaign workers and relatives were too close to polling places during the primary. “They interjected themselves into the voting process in numerous ways, including asking voters how they would vote,” her lawsuit says. Judge James Bell dismissed the suit in October, saying an election contest should be decided by the House. Myers on Tuesday said Dillon’s allegations are “totally, to-

tally false.” The other candidate trying to overturn an election loss is Republican Mark Tullos of Raleigh, who questions how votes were counted in District 79 in Smith and Jasper counties. Tullos and five-term Democratic Rep. Bo Eaton of Taylorsville tied with 4,589 votes each in the general election, and Eaton won a Nov. 20 tiebreaker in a drawing of straws. The Mississippi Constitution says the House and Senate are the final arbiters of who wins legislative races, and House

Speaker Philip Gunn, R-Clinton, appointed a committee to consider petitions from Tullos and Dillon. The committee held its first meeting Tuesday at the Capitol and set operating rules. Chairman Mark Baker, R-Brandon, said no action will be taken until the legislative session starts in January. “These are serious issues, and the parties deserve our serious attention to it,” Baker said. By “parties,” Baker meant the candidates, not the political parties. But,

there’s plenty at stake for partisan politics. Republicans are one seat short of a three-fifths supermajority that would let them pass tax bills without help from Democrats. Candidates in the two races have a mid-December deadline to gather information about how elections were conducted. The committee of four Republicans and one Democrat will make recommendations, and the House will have three options: Seat the winners, seat the petitioners or order new elections.

FUNDRAISER the community comes together to help them help those struggling and he has faith it will happen again. He said he’s grateful to live in a community where people believe in caring for others. In addition to financial donations, volunteers are also needed for the effort. All volunteers are required to attend one of two training sessions set for Dec. 7 and Dec. 8 in order to participate. Caveness said with several changes to the opera-

tion of this year’s program everyone who volunteers must attend one of the training sessions. Donations may be mailed to The Lighthouse Foundation, P.O. Box 2121, Corinth, MS 38835.

U.S. sends special ops to combat Islamic State BY DEB RIECHMANN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The U.S. military will deploy a new special operations force to Iraq to step up the fight against Islamic State militants unleashing violence in Iraq and Syria and determined to hold territory they have seized across the Middle East, Defense Secretary Ash Carter told Congress on Tuesday. Carter, who testified alongside Gen. Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, faced skeptical lawmakers who argued that the U.S. needs to be more forceful in countering the threat from IS, credited with attacks in Paris and Beirut and the downing of a Russian airliner. Carter told the House Armed Services Committee that over time, the special operations force will be able to conduct raids, free hostages, gather intelligence and capture IS leaders. Carter said that will improve intelligence and generate more targets for attacks.

There currently are about 3,500 U.S. troops in Iraq, and President Barack Obama had previously announced he was sending fewer than 50 special operations forces to Syria. There has been a growing call from some Republicans for more U.S. boots on the ground and a divide among warweary Americans about the prospect of greater military involvement. Carter said the number in the new expeditionary force will be “larger” than 50. He said it will be a “standing” force, meaning it will be stationed in Iraq. He said it would focus on helping Iraq defend its borders and build the Iraqi security forces, but also would be in position to conduct unilateral operations into Syria. “This is an important capability because it takes advantage of what we’re good at,” Carter said. “We’re good at intelligence, we’re good at mobility, we’re good at surprise. We have the long reach that no one else has. And it puts everybody on

notice in Syria. You don’t know at night who’s going to be coming in the window. And that’s the sensation that we want all of ISIL’s leadership and followers to have.” Carter said the force might be American-only, but more likely would be a mixed force with perhaps Kurdish troops or others who are fighting the militants. He said the new force would conduct operations similar to two conducted earlier this year. In October, U.S. special operations troops and Iraqi forces raided a compound in northern Iraq freeing about 70 Iraqi prisoners who were facing execution. One U.S. service member was killed in the raid, the first American combat death in Iraq since the U.S. began its campaign against IS in August 2014. In May, a Delta Force raid in Syria killed IS financier Abu Sayyaf, yielded intelligence about the group’s structure and finances, and his wife, held in Iraq, has been cooperating with interrogators.

Planned Parenthood shooter renews domestic terror focus Associated Press

to hide inside surrounding buildings for six hours until police were able to arrest him. To some in the community, the attack resembled an act of domestic terrorism, sparking a debate over what to call Robert Lewis Dear’s rampage even before he was taken into custody. But the legal system may not resolve that question. Dear faces state charges of first-degree murder, and the federal criminal code has no specific, catchall charge for domestic terrorism. Federal prosecutors bringing charges for ideologically motivated violence generally turn to other statutes — such as those for firearms, explosives, hate crimes or murder — to cover offenses that could arguably be labeled as terror. The punishment may be the same, but often without the branding more typically associated with international terrorism.

PUBLIC NOTICE If you are a Corinth Gas customer, or a non-customer but live near a natural gas line, you may receive a random computerized telephone call during the second week of December where the person answering the phone is asked a series of questions concerning natural gas safety. If no answer is received from your residence on the first call a follow-up call will be made. Results from this survey will be used by Corinth Gas & Water Department to make sure we are doing our job to provide you with as much natural gas safety information as possible. The survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete and we appreciate your participation. New regulations from the federal Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS) require gas utilities to develop and follow public awareness plans regarding safety and the safe use of natural gas. One of the requirements of the plan is that each utility must periodically assess the effectiveness of their efforts to inform customers, and noncustomers living near gas lines, about safety and the safe use of natural gas. More information about natural gas is available on our website at www.corinthgasandwater.com.

“There has long been some interest in defining acts of domestic terrorism as terrorism. It’s become quite a partisan issue,” said William Yeomans, who spent more than two decades in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. But given the number of laws already available to federal prosecutors, he added, “Whether it’s domestic terrorism or not, it doesn’t really matter.” Police have refused to detail a motive in the Friday killings of one police officer and two civilians at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, though one law enforcement official said Dear said “no more baby parts” during rambling comments after his arrest. Dear used a rifle in the shooting. He also brought other firearms and ammunition, according to a law enforcement official with knowledge of the case who was not authorized to talk publicly and did so on condition of anonymity. The Justice Department has said it’s reviewing the case. Federal officials have the option of filing charges, but they haven’t said whether they will do so. Among their potential avenues is a 1994 law known as the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which makes it a crime to injure or intimidate abortion clinic patients and employees. Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper has called the killings a “form of terrorism” and Planned Parenthood has said witnesses believe the gunman was motivated by opposition to abortion. But Dear has been described by acquaintances as a loner who once gave neighbors anti-Obama literature but never any indication he would target a clinic. Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers, a former U.S. attorney, said Colorado laws can ably address the shooting. Federal law defines domestic terrorism as dangerous acts that take place inside the U.S. intended to intimidate the public or coerce government policy or conduct — a description meant to encompass, among others, antigovernment anarchists, white supremacists and animal-rights activists.

Man pleads guilty to turtle smuggling ANN ARBOR, Mich. — A Canadian man caught at a border crossing with 51 turtles taped to his body pleaded guilty Tuesday to smuggling or attempting to smuggle more than 1,000 of the reptiles out of southeastern Michigan. Kai Xu, 27, would order turtles online and travel to the U.S. to pick them up and then ship them to China or return with them to Ontario, Canada. He pleaded guilty to six crimes in federal court in Ann Arbor and faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. It’s illegal to export wildlife from the U.S. without a permit from the government. Xu “regularly deals in turtle shipments worth $30,000, $80,000 or $125,000,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Sara Woodward said in a court filing. “In China, the turtles he smuggles are worth two to three times the amount he pays here.” Defense attorney Matt Borgula declined to comment after the guilty plea.

Police probe death of Alaskan mayor JUNEAU, Alaska — The newly elected mayor of Alaska’s capital city was found dead at his Juneau home, and police are investigating a range of possible causes. The Juneau Police Department released few details on the death of Stephen “Greg” Fisk, 70, but called rumors of an assault “speculation.” Fisk’s adult son found his body Monday and alerted authorities, police said in a statement. An attack is “one of the possibilities out there, but there’s others that could have happened,” Police Chief Bryce Johnson told the Juneau Empire newspaper. “There could’ve

been a fall. There’s lots of things that would cause it.” He noted there was no evidence of forced entry into Fisk’s home. No other details on the circumstances surrounding Fisk’s death were released. “Detectives are actively investigating facts of the incident, and all evidence is being preserved and documented,” the police statement said.

Low prices drive up farm loan demand WICHITA, Kan. — The nation’s net farm income is the lowest since 2002, and with another year of low commodity prices, demand for agriculture loans is surging as farmers struggle to make ends meet. Today’s grain prices will bring in enough to pay for basic operating costs like fertilizer, seed and land rent, said Troy Soukup, the past president of Kansas Bankers Association’s Ag Bankers Division. Yet, crop prices are not high enough for farmers to make payments on equipment loans — or even to get paid for their own labor. Agricultural lenders say they are seeing people who had operating loans requesting larger ones, and some who had operated with cash are borrowing money. But it’s unlikely the current run on loans will be anything like the farm credit crisis of the 1980s, when those who survived the significant year-to-year losses were without large debts to repay. Farmer Tom Giessel had to borrow just to finish out this season at his western Kansas farm where he grows wheat, corn and sorghum. Not so long ago, commodity prices were so high that Giessel didn’t have to borrow any money for the farm between 2012 and 2014.

Review nears end in deadly shooting CINCINNATI — The investigation into whether there should be in any charges in the June fatal shootings of a Cincinnati police officer and an armed suspect police say was staging a “suicide by cop” is nearly complete, a southwest Ohio prosecutor said Tuesday. Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters said he expects to announce the conclusion Wednesday. No charges have been expected against the officer who shot the suspect in an exchange of gunfire. Police have said Officer Sonny Kim was responding to two 911 calls on June 19 about a man with a gun. The 911 caller reported the subject was a “belligerent” black man in his early 20s who was wearing a white T-shirt with a gun tucked in his waistband. Police later determined the caller was actually the suspect himself, 21-year-old Trepierre Hummons, and said he was trying to lure an officer to shoot him. Kim, 48, was the first officer to arrive and Hummons shot him, investigators said.

Beware ‘the next big thing’ The regulators’ group says marijuana investments could be especially vulnerable to “pump-and-dump” scams in which operators tout and push up a small company’s stock, then unload their shares at a big profit. When it comes to bitcoin, values can fluctuate wildly. It’s also subject to a patchwork of regulations in different jurisdictions — enabling promoters to mislead investors. The three new areas join the other investments that raise red flags for regulators. Those are led by Ponzi schemes that use new investors’ money to pay returns to earlier ones, private securities offerings and real estate investment strategies.

Investors should keep a skeptical eye on three schemes that may be touted as the “next big thing.” Securities regulators warn that promoters are seeking to lure consumers with “get-in-on-theground-floor” pitches: binary options, digital currency such as bitcoin and ventures in the newly legal marijuana industry. With binary options, investors try to predict a stock’s price by a certain date. Guess right and you score a fixed amount of money. Get it wrong, and you lose your entire investment. They look more like gambling than actual investments, says the North American Securities Administrators Association. State regulators investigations

10 ideas for celebrating your 25th anniversary BY DIANA MARSZALEK

“A 25th anniversary can be celebrated in two ways. One is celebrating who you have been to each other. The other is celebrating the future.”

Associated Press

The Baby Boom generation has put its own stamp on many traditions, so why should 25th wedding anniversaries be different? Many couples are ditching convention when it comes to marking the milestone. “When they get to these more dramatic occasions, so many couples want to do something exciting and different,” says Charles Schmitz of St. Louis. He and his wife, Elizabeth, are marriage counselors and authors, most recently of “How to Marry the Right Guy” (Briarcliff, 2014). “They don’t want to go to their favorite Italian restaurant.” Schmitz says that “upending experiences,” whether that’s going on safari or serving dinner “all splendid in nothing,” strengthen marriages, especially when they involve “thinking about those wonderful moments in our relationships. “It’s celebrating those milestones like you’re let-

Pepper Schwartz Sociologist ting your hair blow in the wind riding in a torch-red Mustang convertible,” he says. For many of us, however, that may be easier said than done; there are time and money constraints, to say nothing of not owning that Mustang — yet. Celebrating your 25th in a meaningful way doesn’t require big expenditures or elaborate staging, says Pepper Schwartz, a University of WashingtonSeattle sociologist who also works as the AARP’s relationship expert. “A 25th anniversary can be celebrated in two ways. One is celebrating who you have been to each other. The other is celebrating the future,” she

says. Keeping the occasion in perspective — i.e., not freaking out — is also wise. “This isn’t the last thing you do before you jump off the face of the Earth,” Schwartz says. “It’s a big moment, and it deserves to be celebrated by something memorable that makes you excited for the future.” Here are 10 ideas to do that, some of which require very little money or planning. As Schwartz says: “You mark the day, but it doesn’t have to be a trip to Africa.” ■■■

1. Change things up at home. That could mean anything from stringing

celebratory lights outside to sprucing up the house. Paint the bedroom wall or rearrange your living room furniture. It doesn’t matter what, as long as it’s “just something that says, this changed on our 25th,” Schwartz says. 2. Do something especially romantic at home. Read poetry to each other by candlelight, for instance. Or have your favorite food for dinner, even if it involves marshmallows. 3. Mark the day permanently, which doesn’t necessarily mean getting a tattoo (although if you’re considering it, now could be good time). Inscribe a small plaque with the date and occasion, and put it on a piece of outdoor furniture. Or have a professional photo taken of the two of you. Write your names in a slab of wet cement. 4. Have a day of service — to each other. If you usually cook and your spouse mows the lawn, switch jobs for the day. Neither of you will get off

scot free, but the effort shows you’re willing to help carry the burden. 5. Have a day of service — to others. Do something charitable, whether it’s making a donation somewhere or serving dinner at a shelter. It’s nice to be reminded after 25 years how good we have it. 6. Learn something new together. It doesn’t matter what: speaking French, tending to bonsai trees, restoring cars, learning massage therapy. When not in class, you can study together, and eventually apply your new skills. 7. Start an annual tradition doing something you both enjoy. Planting a tree, say, or going to a pottery place to make an anniversary plate. Not only do you and your spouse get a shared experience year after year but, depending on the activity, you could create a collection of mementoes, too. 8. If you’re going to travel, make it an adventure. Hike the Grand Tetons, go whitewater

rafting or learn to scuba dive. If you have the itch to travel but not the cash, look into a house exchange. And sure, if you really want to, it’s OK to go to Disney World without the kids. 9. Have a party, but make it sort of retro. You were married in the 1990s after all! Event planner Jason Jani, owner of the SCE Event Group, suggests making a playlist of songs from the year you were married and showing videos from the wedding. If you’re renewing your vows, invite your bridesmaids and groomsmen back to recreate their roles. And if you still have your dress, wear it. 10. Finally, when all else fails, you can do what Schmitz said: Let your hair blow in the wind while riding around in a torch-red Mustang convertible. He and his wife did buy a Mustang, and make sure to drive it with the top down at least once a month regardless of the weather. Perhaps you can borrow one.

Learning to run in middle age with help of mobile app to my phone for $2.99. It was easy to use. I clicked “Week 1 Day 1” and followed instructions: a fiveminute warmup walk; then, for 20 minutes, alternating one minute of jogging with 90 seconds of walking; ending with a five-minute, cool-down walk. The app doesn’t give you any breaks based on age. But the intervals gradually increased over nine weeks until I was running 30 minutes straight. I checked out other running apps — there are many — but they seemed unnecessarily complicated. Part of my learning curve was remembering to use my app’s lock key to prevent accidental swipes that paused, fastforwarded or rewound the program as I ran. Another issue: Whenever the app bumped me up a notch — say from five to 10 minutes running, the increases at first seemed impossible. But each time, I upped my game. At the end of the nineweek program, I was doing over 3 miles. I added more time and distance using the “free run” setting so the app’s log could keep tracking my data. I’m still searching for the perfect music for my runs, switching between Spotify, Pandora and less well-known sites like Songza and Slacker Radio. I like listening to

NEW YORK — It’s the last five minutes of my 45-minute run. I’m panting. Sweating. Tuning out the occasional twinge of pain from a knee, calf or foot. Just focusing on the rhythm of my sneakers on the road. I’m a 50-something baby boomer who’s never been to a gym or taken an exercise class. A few months ago, I decided to learn to run. I wanted to recapture that feeling of freedom and joy I remembered from childhood, when I could effortlessly dash across a park or run home without stopping to catch my breath. But there seemed to be so many obstacles to taking up running in middle age: gear, time, weather, fear of injury, discomfort. Would I ever be able to do it for more than a few minutes without gasping? Here’s how I learned to run.

The app I’m a boomer, but millennials are my gurus. If I’ve got a problem, they’ve got an app. A 20-something cousin told me about the Couch to 5K app. She said it made running painless by increasing your time and distance very gradually. I downloaded the app

Boomers accounted for 18 percent of New York marathon finishers this year. But only 10 percent of the 18.7 million people who completed all types of races in 2014 — from 5Ks to marathons — were 55 or older, according to Running USA, an organization that promotes the sport. new songs, but some lyrics are too explicit for my middle-age sensibilities. Even so I refuse to make oldies playlists — though “Get Off of My Cloud” is the right tempo for my slow pace.

Gear and weather I didn’t want to buy new gear. But I needed weather-appropriate clothing and good sneakers — not the crummy, ancient ones I usually wear. I dug out an unused pair of cross-trainers I’d bought at a New Balance tent sale long ago for $40. But after three months, my heel ached. I went to the running-gear retailer JackRabbit, where I’d also purchased a sports

bra, and submitted to the store’s evaluation process: You run on a treadmill; they videotape you and recommend the right shoes. I splurged on a $150 pair with extra heel padding — three times more than I have ever paid for sneakers. The heel pain was nearly gone within two runs. I also raided my teenage son’s closet. I wore tank tops and his basketball shorts until the weather changed; now I wear his jerseys, long pants, cap and windbreaker. The cold bothers me less than I’d imagined.

Mind, body and racing Boomers accounted for 18 percent of New York marathon finishers this year. But only 10 percent of the 18.7 million people who completed all types of races in 2014 — from 5Ks to marathons — were 55 or older, according to Running USA, an organization that promotes the

sport. No wonder I’m older than most runners I see. When I do see gray-haired warriors, they pass me just as often as the millennials. But I’m less worried about speed than injury. A friend who started running with me at the end of the summer stopped after a few weeks due to aches and pains. I watch videos and read all the advice and debates on warming up, stretches, treating soreness, preventing injury and running form. All of it’s worth the trouble. I sleep better and feel more serene running. Call it runner’s high, dopamine, endorphins — troubles fly from my head with every step. Sometimes I can’t stop smiling. I even ran my first race on Thanksgiving — a 5-mile Turkey Trot. My 55-minute time was nothing to brag about, but I placed in the middle of my age group. I was just pleased nothing hurt and that I still had plenty of energy when I was done. It brought me back to that feeling I remembered from childhood: running with freedom and joy.

ments, 12-hour days are my norm. Finding time to run is hard. Once a week, I run a 5K loop in my local park around 6 a.m. It’s dark when I start, but the park is well-lit, with enough joggers, bikers and even parents pushing strollers to feel safe. And the sky is awesome — planets and moon, then sunrise. Once a week, I run at night on busy local streets. I’ve discovered a whole after-dark world out there: runners, dog-walkers, teenagers, cleaning crews, take-out delivery men, spooning couples, smokers and homeless people. When I run the park weekends in the daytime, the sunshine feels luxurious.

She says if I love her, I should be turned on whether she’s nude or wearing lingerie. Part of the problem is she’s not in the best shape, and the lingerie would hide that. I have tried bargaining with her, but she won’t agree. She doesn’t understand why I’m not chasing her around all the time. I have tried to explain that I don’t find a tummy sexy. She just calls me Shallow Hal. Advice? -- HAL IN NEW YORK DEAR HAL: I’d love to know what attracted you to Amanda in the first place, since your “type” seems to have always been women who are arm candy. Sadly, taut bodies don’t always last. At some point, age, pregnancies and the pull of gravity can cause them to sag. By the way, with the exception

of pregnancy, this can affect men as well as women. Bottom line: If physical perfection is what you need to feel aroused, then you and Amanda may be a mismatch because NOBODY’S perfect. (And this includes you.) DEAR ABBY: I have started using an effective coping skill when I get upset about something or someone at work. I “vent” in a personal email to myself and send it to my home email address. Well, today I got upset with my office buddy, so I sent myself an email. But instead of it going to my home, I mistakenly sent it to her and it hurt her feelings. I never meant for her or anyone else to read it. The technique keeps me from staying angry at work. As soon as I realized what I had done, I sent her an apology and we talked about it afterward. I feel terrible about hurting her, because she is a sweet person, and it was a complete misunderstanding on my part. She told me she accepted my apology. What else can I do for her, or should I just learn my lesson? -FLUBBED IT IN FLORIDA DEAR FLUBBED: I think your apology was enough. However, because it hasn’t assuaged your guilt, consider asking if you can treat her to lunch. And in the

future, look twice before hitting “send.” Better yet, go “old school” and write your thoughts in a notebook you keep in your purse. DEAR ABBY: I am scheduled to attend a wedding later this month. Well, I just found out the groom’s uncle is not a real minister, and that he purchased his minister’s license online. I think it is very disrespectful to people who take religion seriously, and to real ministers who spend years studying in order to be ordained. There’s nothing wrong with having a judge preside over the ceremony, but to have a fake minister preside makes the whole ceremony a fraud. If I say anything, I know it will cause hurt feelings, so I’m keeping my mouth shut. Am I an old fuddy-duddy? -- SILENT IN SPRINGFIELD, ILL. DEAR SILENT: You are entitled to your feelings, but if this uncle is the person the happy couple wants to officiate, you shouldn’t judge. If their choice makes you uncomfortable, stay home.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). In the day’s competition, the prize won’t go to the one who is more naturally skilled. Rather, it will go to the one who chooses to develop her skill to the best of her ability. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). For all the times you’ve wondered if a relationship has more potential than you’ve already mined, this is the day to find out. Business relationships will be especially lucky for investigating. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are one of the most flexible signs of the zodiac, and one of the reasons why is that you regularly stretch yourself into unknown territory. Like a dancer, this keeps you emotionally lithe and limber. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The next three days are for setting a precedent, so make sure you’re doing something you’d like to repeat. If it’s not moving the way you want, turn it around now while things are still fresh. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Clo-

sure is more important than you think. So is the ritual of decluttering, which is not just about possessions; it extends to your emotional world, too. Nothing new can come in until you make more room. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Conversation, investigation, research -- it’s all part of moving a relationship forward. It’s good to know more about a person before you decide what role he or she will play in your life. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Let others handle the technical problems today, because your talent is best applied to helping people feel better on an emotional level. The human-interest angle is wide open and you’re the one best suited to take it on. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You want to do your part. Don’t do more than that. You could, easily. In fact, you’d prefer to step in and take over, but you know that it won’t help things. The team will be stronger when everyone learns to participate.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There is something you’ve been a little afraid to talk about even though you know that the conversation needs to happen. It can’t be put off any longer. Pass on the message. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today you’ll wear your confidence smooth and tucked away. You don’t need to tell people about your accomplishments, because your attitude will say it all. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It was hard to get up to speed but finally you’re no longer a novice. Now that you know what you’re doing it will take a lot less effort to get results. This leaves you with extra reserves of energy to apply to something new. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s a fine art to ignoring what you can’t do anything about. It starts with recognizing the things that fall into that category. You may have made a few errors as you were categorizing. Reassess.

The Ragan family helped shepherd Xfinity Series champ Chris Buescherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career from the start

-DUHG & 7LOWRQ *HWW\ ,PDJHV IRU 1$6&$5

The difference in the aspiring drivers who make it to the top levels of NASCAR and the ones who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t often has more to do with their moves off the race track than on it. For 2015 XďŹ nity Series champion Chris Buescher, his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to move while he was a teenager from his home in Texas to the NASCAR hub of Charlotte, North Carolina, set his career path on a course that eventually led to a top NASCAR ride at Roush Fenway Racing. Meeting Ken Ragan was a ;Ă&#x20AC;QLW\ 6HULHV FKDPSLRQ big factor, too. Ragan, a former Cup driver &KULV %XHVFKHU PRYHG LQ ZLWK and the father of Sprint Cup WKH 5DJDQ IDPLO\ WR JHW D VHULRXV VWDUW LQ KLV UDFLQJ FDUHHU driver David Ragan, has spent much of his career working in the Legends racing program, and now directs the Legends program at Atlanta Motor Speedway. It was during his time working with the Legends in Charlotte that Ragan ďŹ rst saw Buescherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s potential. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chris would come to Charlotte from Texas to run the Summer Shootout, but about the time people started paying attention to him, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d go back to Texas,â&#x20AC;? Ken Ragan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So I talked to his parents and convinced them to let him move in with us.â&#x20AC;? David had just moved out and his room was vacant, so Buescher moved in with Ken and Beverly Ragan and their older son, Adam.

There, Buescher was treated like a member of the family. Beverly helped home-school him, and he had his share of chores to do. Ken recalls many a Sunday evening spent with his family and Buescher watching their favorite movies on TV. During the day, Buescher worked on Late Model and ARCA cars at Davidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had to be home at 7:30 to eat dinner every night,â&#x20AC;? Buescher said during his championâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interview at Homestead-Miami Speedway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what everyone wants to do right there, is do everything they can to get to this point, and I enjoyed every second of it.â&#x20AC;? Buescher said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also indebted to his parents for letting him move in with the Ragans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to thank my parents for being gracious enough to let me move away from home at 16 years old,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was tough on them. But they know it was well worth it.â&#x20AC;? The Ragans did more than give Buescher a roof over his head. David personally funded some of Buescherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early ARCA rides, and got him a job at Roush Fenway Racing driving cars for pit stop practice. Buescher regularly worked out at the Roush gym and helped out wherever he could. The Ragans also enrolled him in a Dale Carnegie course to help make him a better speaker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At ďŹ rst he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk, but now he does a nice job in his interviews,â&#x20AC;? Ken Ragan said. For Ken and David Ragan, helping Buescher was a way of paying forward the favors they got from others over the years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always told David that if people hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t helped him, he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have made it, and he would always feel good about helping Chris,â&#x20AC;? Ken said, adding that Buescherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible behavior over the years has made the association with him very rewarding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We never had any trouble with Chris wanting to go out at night and cause a ruckus,â&#x20AC;? Ken said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of person that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind helping.â&#x20AC;?

Crew Chief Adam Stevens kept team going throughout 2015 season in touch and up to speed with what we were working on and how it was affecting the cars.â&#x20AC;? It helped that Stevens and Busch had worked together in the Xfinity Series prior to being paired in Cup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We did have two strong years together on the Xfinity side,â&#x20AC;? Stevens said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a lot of races weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve run together and a lot of experiences weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been through together.

AMS not to be resurfaced Despite reports on Facebook from a paving company employee that Atlanta Motor Speedway would be resurfaced next year, speedway officials issued a statement indicating that the track wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be repaved in 2016. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Atlanta Motor Speedway was last resurfaced in 1997, and today is among the oldest racing surfaces on the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series circuit,â&#x20AC;? the statement read. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While track officials are constantly monitoring the trackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition, there are, at this time, no plans in place to resurface the track.â&#x20AC;? The aging asphalt is often credited with the track having multiple racing grooves, which make for more competitive racing. Track officials regularly inspect the track and seal cracks, and that maintenance program, along with relatively mild winters in the South, have contributed to the trackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longevity.

2015 Sprint Cup finale was the most-watched since 2005 The Sprint Cup season finale from Homestead-Miami Speedway, which also was the final Cup race for Jeff Gordon, drew 7.64 million TV viewers, making it the most-watched finale since 2005, according to Nielsen Co. numbers provided by NBC. The final laps, which pushed the race into a time slot normally occupied by Sunday night NFL football coverage, saw 12.4 million viewers, which was the highest peak for a NASCAR race since the Daytona 500 in February.

Crew Chief Chad Johnston moves to Chip Ganassi Racing

-DUHG & 7LOWRQ *HWW\ ,PDJHV IRU 1$6&$5

It took Kyle Busch 11 years of trying to win his first Sprint Cup championship. It took his crew chief, Adam Stevens, only one. Stevens, who came up through the ranks at Joe Gibbs Racing, moved up to the Cup level this year, but was immediately faced with a crisis, as his driver was injured the day before the Daytona 500. Matt Crafton drove the No. 18 in the 500, then David Ragan drove nine races before Erik Jones ran it at Kansas Speedway just prior to Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return. Through it all, Stevens kept the team going, and was able to put winning cars on the track once Busch returned. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt like we were making progress with David (Ragan), and then getting Erik (Jones) in there and having a good run with Erik â&#x20AC;&#x201D; although we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the finish for it, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to really know the slope of that curve until you get your guy back,â&#x20AC;? Stevens said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And there was no guarantee that the things that they were learning were going to directly apply to Kyle when he got back in the car. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think a big key to making that transition a quick one was Kyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s continued participation in the team meetings and visiting with (teammates) Matt (Kenseth) and Carl (Edwards) and Denny (Hamlin), and spending time in my office each and every week, a couple days a week, and staying

NOTEBOOK

It was a far different story from back in 2003, when Busch came to Homestead with his employer at the time, Hendrick Motorsports, and attempted to make his Sprint Cup debut in a No. 60 Chevrolet. But on that weekend, Busch never even got on the track. His car did not fit the NASCAR body templates, and series officials determined that it could not be repaired at the track, so Busch had to withdraw. He wound up making his Cup debut the following season at his home track, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where he qualified 18th, but crashed after just 11 laps. After failing to qualify at Texas Motor Speedway, he finished his first Cup race in May 2004, at Charlotte Motor Speedway, where he was 32nd â&#x20AC;&#x201D; seven laps behind his teammate and race winner, Jimmie Johnson, in the CocaCola 600. Busch got his first Cup victory in 2005 at Auto Club Speedway in California, and won again in the fall race at Phoenix.

Chad Johnston, who spent the past two seasons as crew chief for Tony Stewart, has moved to Chip Ganassi Racing, where he will be crew chief for Kyle Larson. He replaces Chris Heroy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very much looking forward to having Chad join the No. 42 team, and excited for the fresh perspective that he brings,â&#x20AC;? team owner Chip Ganassi said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We fully expect the combination of Chad and Kyle to be the foundation of the No. 42 team for years to come. Chad is a race-winning crew chief and has helped steer a team into the Chase â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two goals we have each season for our teams.â&#x20AC;? Johnston has one career Sprint Cup race win as a crew chief (in 2013 at Sonoma Raceway) and made the Chase for the Sprint Cup with Martin Truex Jr. in 2012. He is a native of Cayuga, Indiana, and has a mechanical engineering degree from Indiana State University. He worked in the aerospace industry prior to his racing career.

Drew Carey to host 2015 Sprint Cup awards banquet in Las Vegas Comedian Drew Carey will host the 2015 Sprint Cup Series Awards banquet on Dec. 4 at the Wynn Las Vegas. Carey is the host of â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Price is Right,â&#x20AC;? but is better known for his earlier role on the eponymous sitcom â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Drew Carey Show,â&#x20AC;? which aired from 1995 to 2004. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been a tremendous year for NASCAR, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m honored to host this headlining event, as fans all across the country tune in to pay homage to the accomplishments of the 2015 champion,â&#x20AC;? Carey said in a release from NASCAR. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look forward to rounding out the 2015 NASCAR racing season with a night of epic proportions, alongside some of the greatest names in sports and entertainment.â&#x20AC;?

Kyle Buschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surgeries to repair his broken leg and broken foot back in February are well documented, as the entire NASCAR world followed his recovery from a devastating crash at Daytona International Speedway. But Busch pointed out after he won the Sprint Cup championship at HomesteadMiami Speedway last week that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scheduled to have more surgery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not exactly sure yet when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the week after the banquet or the following week after that. So I think it might be [Dec. 14th or 15th],â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that the procedures are to remove the steel rods, screws and plates that were used to stabilize his broken bones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be to rehab to make sure that all the joints that have been immobilized for the last nine months, we get them kind of woken back up in a smooth fashion and break it in, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And then the leg, though, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to be down for about four weeks with the leg.â&#x20AC;?

Biggersville, AC split contests BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthianl.com

BIGGERSVILLE — It was a post-Thanksgiving, preChristmas reunion at Biggersville on Tuesday. It was also another annual rivalry tussle between county rivals. A split, left everybody happy. Biggersville and Alcorn Central shared their annual doubleheader, with the Lady Bears and Lions prevailing. Cliff Little, who leads both BHS teams, graduated from Alcorn Central as did Lady Bear head coach Charlette Foster. Mike Lewis, in his second

stint as the Bears mentor, coached the Lions in the early and mid-1980s. Foster also led the Lady Lions program in the late 1990s. “I’ve still got a lot of friends out there,” Little said of Alcorn Central. “I really don’t think a lot about the matchup. It’s all about the kids.” • Devonte Spears scored a game-high 33 points in the nightcap as the Lions (3-3) won 67-58 in a battle of state championship coaches at their respective schools. Spears, who had surgery for a broken nose last Wednesday, scored 19 in the second quarter as the Lions expanded a four-point lead to 39-26

at the break. “He was feeling it pretty good,” said Little. “He’s a pure shooter but he’s come along way in his overall game. He’s not forcing shots and sharing the ball.” Spears connected on five 3-pointers and Jaylon Powell, who added 10, had a pair of extra-point buckets. Alcorn Central (3-5) had four players in double figures, led by Trevor Godwin’s 15. Both Godwin and Blake McIntyre, who tallied an even 10, put up 20-point games in the Bears’ last outing. “We knew they could score, so we tried to guard them as best we could,” said Little.

Brandon Turner had 14 points for Alcorn Central and Connor Lewis matched his uniform number with 13. Lewis had two of Central’s three 3-pointers. • Alcorn Central (6-2) outscored Biggersville 13-7 in the fourth to overcome a twopoint deficit and take a 62-58 win. Leading scorer Lauren McCreless was held scoreless in the first half and didn’t score from the floor. “We focused on McCreless,” said Little. “If you had told me we’d hold her without a field goal, I would have assumed Please see SPLIT | 13A

Kossuth used two different strategies to get back into the win column. The Lady Aggies used the free-throw line to down Jumpertown 58-49 and end a three-game slide in the opener. The Kossuth boys dialed long distance in an 85-67 win that halted a two-game skid. ■ The Lady Aggies (4-4) were outscored 39-30 from the floor by the Lady Cardinals, but made up the difference at the charity stripe.

76ers top Lakers, finally end 28-game skid The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Kobe Bryant won over the fans — he just couldn’t beat the previously winless Philadelphia 76ers. With the spotlight on Bryant during the final game of his career in his hometown, the Sixers stole the show and defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 103-91 on Tuesday night for their first victory of the season.

The Sixers had lost their first 18 games, and 28 overall dating to last season — the longest losing streak in the history of major professional sports in the United States. But they remained tied for the worst start in NBA history with the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets, who also opened 0-18. It was the first win for the Sixers since March 25 at Denver. Hours earlier, Bryant felt

the love in Philadelphia as soon as he entered the arena. He took selfies with fans who might never see him play again, and his presence injected a playoff atmosphere into a city that has lost much of its interest in NBA basketball. With a packed crowd standing and roaring in appreciation, Bryant was introduced to an ovation worthy of a hometown hero, not the

“Hometown Zero” he was once labeled in Philadelphia’s tabloids. Bryant, who will end his 20-year career this season, opened the first leg of his farewell tour in his hometown and was feted with the kind of reverence and gratitude normally reserved for a Sixers great.

MSU’s Prescott wins Conerly BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer

JACKSON — Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott has joined Eli Manning in Conerly Trophy lore. Prescott won the Conerly on Tuesday night, becoming just the second two-time winner of the award and the only player to win it in two consecutive seasons. He ties Manning, who won in 2001 and ‘03 for Ole Miss. This was the 20th year for the Conerly Trophy, an award sponsored by C Spire Wireless that is given to the state’s top college football player. A Mississippi State player has won the award in five of the past seven seasons. “To be put in the same category as Eli Manning, the only two to win this award twice, that’s pretty special,” Prescott said. “It’s very humbling and I’m just thankful.” The 6-foot-2, 230-pound Prescott completed nearly 67 percent of his passes, while throwing for 3,413 yards, 25 touchdowns and only four interceptions. He also ran for a team-high 541 yards and 10 touchdowns. Prescott, from Haughton, Louisiana, beat out a pool of nine other players for the award.

The three finalists were Prescott, Ole Miss receiver Laquon Treadwell and Southern Miss quarterback Nick Mullens. It was a talented group. Treadwell caught 76 passes for 1,082 yards and eight touchdowns this season while Mullens threw for 3,964 yards and 35 touchdowns for the resurgent Golden Eagles. “I didn’t necessarily expect to win it as much this time as I did last time,” Prescott said. Prescott not only had a great year statistically, he’s also carved out a niche as one of the most beloved players in Mississippi State history. He was the face of the program when the Bulldogs were the No. 1 ranked team in the country for five weeks during the 2014 season and he fought through the adversity of losing his mother to cancer during the 2013 season. Dozens of fans waited for his autograph after the ceremony and the 22-year-old signed every one. Prescott says Mississippi has turned into a second home for him over the past five years. “I’ve still got a place for Louisiana in my heart, but the people and hospitality here make everything great.”

76ERS CONTINUED FROM 12A

3-pointer off the opening tip. He hit another 3 on the next possession. Bryant made it 3 for 3 and had the Philly crowd chanting “M-V-P!” as he turned back the clock to his championship form. He scored 20 points on 7-of-26 shooting and made four 3s. By the fourth quarter, the Philly fans had turned their attention toward the home team, chanting “Beat LA!” when beleaguered rookie Jahlil Okafor made a layup for a 9480 lead. Okafor, the No. 3 overall pick out of Duke, has been attached to a string of off-court incidents that included reckless driving and a fight in Boston. He has apologized for his recent decisions. Sixers coach Brett Brown said Okafor will likely soon be accompanied by team security on public outings. Bryant said he would simply tell the 19-year-old rookie to stay focused on basketball. The Sixers stayed focused and finally finished the job after taking an 8075 lead into the fourth. The 76ers had led after three quarters three other

times this season: Nov. 21 at Miami (led 74-67, lost 96-91), Nov. 25 at Boston (led 62-57, lost 84-80) and Nov. 29 at Memphis (led 67-64, lost 92-84), according to STATS. Robert Covington scored 23 points and Jerami Grant had 14 for the Sixers. The win belonged to Philadelphia. The night belonged to Bryant. His homecoming game came with a rare emotional tug for the player fans loved to boo through the years. He waved to the crowd and bowed his head in appreciation as a “Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!’ chant filled Wells Fargo Center during pregame introductions. He was greeted at midcourt by his Lower Merion high school coach Gregg Downer and 76ers great Julius Erving. Bryant hugged both in front of a crowd filled with purpleand-gold No. 24 jerseys. He smiled after every shot and bantered with fans, some who made “Thank you, Kobe” signs. In a reference to the sorry state of the entire Philly sports scene, one fan held a sign that read, “Why Can’t Chip Kelly Retire Instead.”

Gasol’s 38 lead Grizzlies past Pelicans The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — Marc Gasol decided to be less analytical and more assertive on the offensive end. The Memphis Grizzlies liked the results. Gasol scored a careerhigh 38 points to go with 13 rebounds and four blocks, and the Grizzlies beat the New Orleans Pelicans 113-104 on Tuesday night. Gasol’s performance represented a significant departure from his previous five games, when he twice failed to score in double digits and never had more than 15 points. “It’s been a tough week to 10 days as far as me playing and I wanted to take a different approach to the game and it worked,” Gasol said. “I imposed a little bit my

will. ... Instead of trying to get somebody else going or trying to read and see what was in front of me, I just went ahead and tried to be a little more aggressive.” New Orleans lost despite the return of starting guard Tyreke Evans and top reserve Norris Cole. Evans was the Pelicans’ best offensive player with 20 points and 10 assists, but that wasn’t enough to overcome a Memphis squad that scored 52 points in the paint and missed only one of 26 free throws. “It’s tough when you have two of your key guys come back and all the lineups are messed up and everybody’s trying to get back accustomed to one another,” said Pelicans forward Anthony Davis,

whose team has dropped three straight. “But that’s not an excuse. We’ve still got to come out and play defensively. Offensively, we’ll be fine, but defensively we’ve got to come out and play a lot better than what we’re doing the past couple games.” Cole finished with 11 points but missed nine of 12 shots and was 2 of 7 from 3-point range. Gasol was 11 of 22 from the field, scoring on everything from power moves inside to mid-range fades. He also set a new career mark by making all 16 of his foul shots. “It was fun to watch. It was fun to be a part of. We were all rooting for him, man. Those are special nights,” Grizzlies guard Mike Conley said. “When he’s aggressive like that,

man, obviously you see what he’s capable of doing, and hopefully that starts a trend.” Zach Randolph added 14 points, while Courtney Lee and Matt Barnes scored 13 each. Davis finished with 17 points, 14 rebounds and career high-tying nine blocked shots for the Pelicans. But he struggled with his shooting, going 4 of 15 from the field and 8 of 13 on free throws. Early on, Memphis got baited into a high-scoring, up-tempo game by a Pelicans squad that was energized by the return of key players. The Pelicans scored 38 points in the first quarter and led by as many as 14 on Cole’s 3 to start the second. Memphis then slowed the pace.

Missouri beats slow-starting Arkansas State The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Namon Wright scored 14 points, including nine in the second half, helping Missouri defeat Arkansas State 88-78 on Tuesday night. Arkansas State’s Devin Carter led all scorers with 24 points on 8-of 14-shooting. Carter entered the game averaging 15.5 points per game. Tramaine Isabell scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting and K.J. Walton

added 10 points and five rebounds as Missouri got 38 points from its bench. The Tigers opened the game with a 13-0 run, holding Arkansas State scoreless for the first 6:06. Christian Davis put the Red Wolves on the board with a baseline jump shot, his only points of the game. Missouri big men Ryan Rosburg and Kevin Puryear each scored 10 points, shooting a combined 9 of 16. Puryear

added seven rebounds and Rosburg two. The Tigers (3-3) outscored the Red Wolves (2-5) 44-26 in the paint and won the rebound margin 43-39. Arkansas State guards Donte Thomas and Sean Gardner combined for 26 second-half points and spurred a run to help cut a 25-point deficit to four with 4:54 to play. Thomas finished with 18 points and seven rebounds and Gardner had 17 points and four rebounds.

Clutch free-throw shooting helped the Tigers stifle any comeback attempt, as Missouri made 9 of 9 free throws in the final five minutes. Wright scored six of his nine second-half points in a 15-second sequence following the Red Wolves’ big run. He was fouled on a made 3-pointer and completed the four-point play before a steal by Terrence Phillips set up a breakaway layup. Phillips finished with eight points.

Satsuma oranges are easy to grow in the landscape or in containers. They produce well in Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s climate.

Citrus trees such as this Meyer lemon perform well in Mississippi, but they need protection from cold weather.

Mississippi temps allow citrus trees to succeed Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I had the chance to get back into my Gary g a r d e n Bachman and landscape afSouthern ter what Gardening seemed like a horticultural marathon that began in mid-July. While I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t totally neglected my chores, there was still plenty to do. I harvested the remaining fall crop of heirloom tomatoes and removed the plants growing in my self-watering patio containers. I then proceeded

to my citrus grove; understand that I use the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;groveâ&#x20AC;? lightly, as it consists of two Satsuma oranges, two Meyer lemons and a kumquat. Despite being left to their own devices over most of the summer, I found ripe, gorgeous satsumas. Since theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so easy to peel, resistance was futile, and I had to consume one of the oranges immediately. Growing my own citrus is one of the best gardening endeavors ever. I started a couple of years ago after being inspired by my friend Terry, who can actually harvest over 1,000 Satsuma oranges from his two trees. His trees are obviously more

mature than mine, and he has to use boards to prop up the heavily laden branches. Watch this Southern Gardening TV segment of our visit to Terryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garden. Satsuma oranges are really easy to grow, and if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a big yard, they grow and produce just fine in containers. They are also some of the most cold hardy of the citrus trees. In fact, my friend Ron Wilson, who has a national gardening radio show in Cincinnati, Ohio, enjoys homegrown, container-grown satsumas, which he easily moves into his greenhouse for the winter. I also enjoy Meyer lem-

tion about a homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s citrus tree having different fruit than the previous year. Generally what happened is the graft died for some reason â&#x20AC;&#x201C; usually freezing temperatures â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the rootstock is now the dominant growth. A clue to this happening is the appearance of thorns on the branches. I tend to go overboard when it comes to the garden, so I planted my citrus trees in 25-gallon containers. I quickly realized that there would be no way I was going to move these really heavy containers to the garage. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to resort to cov-

ering them when the temperatures dip. Growing citrus is fairly easy in the coastal counties. Gardeners in Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s northern counties donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to be left out of the fun. Extension Publication 2542, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Growing Citrus in Containers in Mississippi,â&#x20AC;? is an excellent guide to success growing citrus in your garden or landscape.

cookies festive Christmas

Itching to try something new this holiday season? Taste has you covered Recipes and photos by the Associated Press

Pumpkin bread biscotti

Start to finish: 2 hours (30 minutes active) Makes 40 cookies 1 cup pumpkin puree 2 eggs 3⁄4 cup vegetable or canola oil 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 3⁄4 cup granulated sugar 3⁄4 cup packed brown sugar 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt 13⁄4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 1 cup chopped dark chocolate 1⁄2 cup toasted sliced almonds Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat 2 standard loaf pans with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, oil, vanilla, both sugars, and the salt. Stir in the Àour, baking soda and pumpkin pie spice

just until well mixed. Divide the mixture between the 2 pans and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean. Leave the oven on. Carefully transfer the pumpkin bread from the pans to a cooling rack and allow to cool. Once cooled, use a serrated knife to slice the loaves into thin slices, about 1»4 inch thick. Working in batches if necessary, set a rack over a baking sheet. Arrange the pumpkin bread slices in a single layer on the rack. It’s ¿ne if they touch. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until almost crisp (they’ll ¿nish crisping as they cool). After the biscotti have cooled, melt the chocolate by microwaving in a small microwave-safe dish in 20 second intervals, stirring frequently. Drizzle over the biscotti, then sprinkle them with toasted almonds. Allow to set before transferring to an airtight container to store at room temperature for 2 weeks.

Secret honey nut cookies Start to finish: 45 minutes Makes 48 cookies 1 cup mixed unsalted nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, pecans and pistachios 1⁄4 cup honey 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter 1⁄2 cup granulated sugar 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 13⁄4 cups all-purpose flour 11⁄4 cups hazelnut or almond flour Powdered sugar, to finish Heat the oven to 375 F. Line 2 baking sheets with kitchen parchment. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the nuts until ¿nely chopped but not powdered. Stir in the honey to make a sticky but malleable dough of sorts. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter, sugar,

salt and vanilla until well combined. Stir in both Àours. Scoop into 48 equal balls of dough, about 1 rounded teaspoonful of dough each. A number 70 cookie scoop works well for this. Working one at a time, Àatten a ball of dough in the palm of your hand, then place 1»2 teaspoonful of the honey-nut mixture in the center. Fold the dough up and around the honey-nut ball to completely enclose it. Repeat with the remaining dough and honey-nut mixture, arranging them on the prepared baking sheets as you go. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Allow to cool on the pans. Roll the cooled cookies in powdered sugar, then store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 week. Roll in powdered sugar again, if desired, just before serving.

Coconut-chai meringue breakaway 2⁄3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Start to finish: 21⁄2 hours (30 minutes active) Makes 16 cookies 4 green cardamom pods 2 star anise 2 whole cloves Pinch of fennel seeds 1⁄4 teaspoon grated nutmeg 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1⁄4 teaspoon ground dry ginger 2 teaspoons hot water 2 teaspoons honey Hefty pinch of saffron 4 egg whites 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar Pinch of salt 3⁄4 cup sugar

Heat the oven to 200 F. Line a baking sheet with kitchen parchment. Break open the cardamom pods, placing the seeds in a mortar or a spice grinder and discarding the shells. Add the seeds from the star anise, discarding the star shell. Add the cloves and fennel. Pound with a pestle or grind until you have a powder. Stir in the nutmeg, pepper and ginger. Set aside. In a small bowl or cup, combine the hot water, honey and saffron, smashing the saffron with the back of a spoon. Set aside. In a large bowl use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until very foamy. About 1 tablespoon at a time, add the sugar while continuing to beat, beating until all of the sugar is incorporated. Continue to beat until thick and glossy peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes. Gently stir in the spice mixture and half of the coconut. Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Drop small dribbles of the saffron mixture onto the surface, then swirl with a butter knife or a toothpick to make bright yellow saffron-honey swirls. Sprinkle with the remaining coconut. Bake for 2 hours, or until dry. Allow to cool. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container at room temperature for about 1 week (if kept very dry and away from humidity).

Mocha gingerbread brigadeiros Start to finish: 45 minutes Makes 36 cookies 1 tablespoon butter, plus more for greasing 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk 1⁄4 cup cocoa powder 1 tablespoon instant coffee powder 1 tablespoon molasses 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cloves 1⁄4 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger Crushed gingerbread cookies or chopped pistachios Use a bit of butter to coat the inside of a medium bowl. In a medium saucepan over

medium, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon of butter, the instant coffee, molasses, ginger, cinnamon and cloves. Cook, stirring constantly, for 10- to 12 minutes, or until thickened. The mixture should hold a line when you drag your spoon through it. Stir in the crystallized ginger, then pour into the buttered bowl and allow to cool. Once the mixture is cool, use buttered hands to roll the mixture into 3»4-inch balls, then roll through the crushed gingerbread or pistachios. Serve in small cupcake papers. Can be refrigerated for 3 weeks in a tightly sealed contained.

Husband, wife need to reach a compromise and enjoy a new and Dear Annie: Please help Annie’s itexciting experience, or settle a dispute between should I put an end to our my wife and me. I have relationship bebeen an avid golf player Mailbox budding fore one of us gets hurt? for the past 20 years. After every Sunday game, I come home and wash the golf balls in the kitchen sink. We live in a very modest house, and other than the bathroom, the kitchen has the only other sink. I refuse to wash my golf balls in the bathroom because I use the same sink to brush my teeth. For what feels like forever now, my wife has argued that the kitchen is no place to wash things from the outside world. While I understand that it may not be the most ideal place, it is really the only option I have. My wife has now reached the point where she doesn’t even want me to play golf on Sunday anymore. I really love golfing and would hate to see it come to this. How should I approach this with my wife? — Between a Golf Ball and a Hard Place Dear Between: Your golf balls don’t belong in the kitchen sink. You may object to washing them where you brush your teeth, but it’s hardly an improvement to wash them where you prepare your food. If you want to continue golfing with-

out annoying your wife, we recommend a compromise. Many golf courses have ballcleaning machines. If so, use them. If not, when you get home, soak them in a bucket of hot water. (A golfer we know first throws in a tablet of denture cleaner to really get the grit out.) It’s a small inconvenience to you, and it will make your wife happy. Dear Annie: I’ve been traveling a lot, but now I’m home for a couple of months. Right before I left for my last trip, I met “Alec” and we clicked immediately. The problem is, we come from very different cultures and are looking for different things from a relationship. Alec also is dealing with various personal issues that I don’t want to take on. Since I’ve been home, I’ve seen Alec twice. I know I’m leading him on, but selfishly I don’t want to stop seeing him. We always have such an amazing time together. I’ve never had this sort of relationship. Should I just go with

— On the Fence Dear Fence: As long as you are honest, you are not leading him on. Make sure Alec knows that you don’t anticipate the relationship lasting for the long haul. That way, if he still wants to continue seeing you, it’s up to him. You cannot avoid someone getting hurt in spite of your upfront warnings. But keep in mind that some of the most unexpected relationships can turn into long-term, loving commitments. If the things that are “amazing” with Alec include good conversations, shared values, a similar sense of humor, warmth and affection, they could make up for cultural differences and other issues. Only time will tell. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
