Feds indict prison gang members

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Two local residents are among 14 facing federal racketeering charges as the result of a probe of activities of the Aryan Brotherhood of Mississippi (ABM).

The ABM is a violent, whitesonly, prison-based gang with members operating inside and outside of state penal institutions.

Thirteen individuals were taken into custody Nov. 20 upon the unsealing of a 10-count in-

dictment returned by a federal grand jury in the Northern District of Mississippi on Oct. 23.

The arrests were announced by the United States Department of Justice.

Those indicted include alleged gang members and as-

sociates Perry Wayne Mask, 46, of Corinth; Stephen Neal Hubanks, 45, of Rienzi; Frank George Owens Jr., 44, of D’Iberville; Joseph Brandon Creel, 46, of Ellisville; Sonny Todd Maxwell; James Milton Dean; Walter Thomas Burrus;

Artist Tony Bullard loves a challenge.

The local painter – known for his vintage paintings of downtown Corinth – unveiled his latest work during the Alcorn County Welcome Center Open House on Monday.

“Another Look at Abe Rubel & Co.” is Bullard’s newest painting which depicts the store and city in the 1940s.

“I got the unreleased photo several years ago and have always wanted to paint it,” said Bullard, who has depicted the Abe Rubel Co. in two prior paintings.

His latest work shows the store as if standing at the Corinth Tourism Office looking back across the railroad tracks.

In 2011, Bullard painted the storefront Abe Rubel Co. “This painting has been in my head for several years,” said the Please see BULLARD | 2A

More parties join Mississippi Silicon lawsuit

BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — The legal fight over a silicon metal plant being built in northeast Mississippi is expanding.

Steelmaker Nucor Corp. wants to intervene on the side of those who say the state improperly issued an air pollution permit to Mississippi Silicon. And the plaintiffs, who were already suing Mississippi Silicon, served notice Nov. 14 that they plan to include the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality as well.

A hearing set for Tuesday was cancelled after U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock recused herself.

She assigned U.S. District Judge Debra Brown to take over the case.

Suing in this case are 16 Front Street LLC and C. Richard Cotton of Saltillo.

16 Front Street is a subsidiary of Miami-based Globe Specialty Metals that was incorporated Oct. 6, the day the suit was filed. Cotton is a writer who says the plant’s pollution would hurt his enjoyment of area parks and lakes.

Globe has sued in three other jurisdictions.

Though other American companies refine silicon metal for their own use, Globe’s four plants are the only domestic producers for commercial markets.

GUILD

The $200 million plant would employ 200 people, making silicon metal that would be used in making aluminum, chemicals and cars. The plant is under construction and is supposed to be complete sometime in 2016.

Rima Holdings USA owns 80 percent of Mississippi Silicon and is an affiliate of Brazil’s Rima Industrial SA. The remainder is owned by investors led by John Correnti. He led construction of what is now the Steel Dynamics mill in Columbus.

Those plaintiffs argue that Mississippi Silicon’s air pollution permit is faulty because Mississippi didn’t allow a full 30 days

for comment and didn’t hold a public hearing.

They claim there were 29 days at best to comment, and less time actually, because documents didn’t arrive at the Burnsville library until later. They also argue those materials didn’t state the true level of Mississippi Silicon’s pollution.

MDEQ, which can be included in the suit after 60 days’ notice, disputes those claims.

MDEQ spokesman Robbie Wilbur wrote in an email that the agency had met the legal requirements for public notice about the Mississippi Silicon permit so all who wished would have “ad-

frustrate the (Clean Air Act) public participation mandate,” Nucor wrote in court papers.

Steven Rowland, an environmental manager, said Nucor wants to comment because its Decatur facility will be downwind of Mississippi Silicon. He said that means pollution from Tishomingo County could hurt Nucor’s ability to emit more pollution if it expands in Decatur.

Mississippi Silicon opposes Nucor’s intervention, saying the steel company isn’t part of the lawsuit. Mississippi Silicon said Nucor asked to enter at the last possible moment, in a delay that “reeks of gamesmanship.”

the foot soldier so they can no longer terrorize our communities.”

According to the indictment, It allegedly models itself after the Californiabased Aryan Brotherhood, which emerged in California prisons during the 1960s. Prosecutors say the ABM formed in Mississippi prisons in 1984 and sought unification with the California organization in 2013 in order to achieve national recognition.

The indictment alleges that the gang enforces its rules and promotes discipline among members, prospects and associates through violence and threats against those who violated the rules or posed a threat to the gangs.

The structure of the organization includes three geographic areas of control — northern, central and southern — and is directed by a three-member “wheel” commonly referred to as “spokes.”

Four of those indicted

were alleged wheel members — Mask, Hubanks, Owens and Creel.

The indictment names Mask and David Ladrone Willis as allegedly responsible for the theft of eight firearms from Berry’s Trading Post in Corinth on July 29, 2013. Mask and Natasha Baxter Ellis are accused of the theft of 36 firearms from The Pawn Shop in Coldwater two days later.

Those named in the count of murder for Michael James Hudson in the Southern District of Mississippi on Dec. 2, 2010, are Owens, Maxwell, Dean and Burrus.

At the same time as the Mississippi announcement, officials announced the indictment of 11 alleged members of the Universal Aryan Brotherhood of Oklahoma.

The cases are being prosecuted by the Criminal Division’s Organized Crime and Gang Section and the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices.

It’s a good opportunity to give a more personal gift that is not stamped with “made in China” on the back, he said.

“We have a good many things that are Corinth-oriented, whether it’s Corinth history or Corinth people, that would be good gifts,” said Boatman.

A sampling of the locally made items includes vintage necktie handbags made by Doris Holder, crocheted jewelry by Kathy BryantWilliams, handmade baskets by Ida Edwards, knit items by Laura Newberry and pottery by Helene Fielder.

A perennial favorite, the artwork of Chig Biggers, is also available.

Saturday’s open house will include refreshments and guitar music by Gary Phillips from 3 p.m. until closing.

The gallery will highlight its fiber selections with demonstrations on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. by Patricia Holmberg, who will show spinning, and Sharon Williams, who will show weaving. Both are from Coldwater.

artist of the work taken from a 1940s photograph of Rubel’s.

One aspect of the photo which drew Bullard’s attention was a mural on the company wall.

“It blew me away,” he said. “I did all kinds of research on the mural to get it like it was then … I want people to feel like they are actually there when they see the painting.”

Researching what he paints is part of the challenge the artist likes most.

“Painting a basket of apples would be boring,” he said. “I like the challenge and I am always digging for old photos.”

Through the years, the Corinth native has painted such downtown Corinth sites as “The Corinth Coliseum”; “Fillmore Street Corinth In The 1950s”; “The Waldron Hotel”; “Moonlight Over Liddon Lake”; “Hillbilly Show Today”; and “The Blue Moon Boys In Corinth.”

“I have always been drawn to the vintage Corinth look,” said Bullard.

The 10 counts of the indictment include conspiracy to participate in racketeering activity, conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine, the kidnapping of Michael James Hudson, the murder of Michael James Hudson, the kidnapping of an individual identified as “D.W.,” the assault of “D.W.,” the attempted murder of “J.B.,” two counts of firearm theft, and receipt/possession of stolen firearms.

“The Aryan Brotherhood is a violent gang that has seeped from behind prison walls into communities throughout this nation,” said Assistant Attorney General Leslie Caldwell. “Working in lockstep with our law enforcement partners and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices throughout the country, we are targeting and dismantling these gangs from the top general to

The plaintiffs also claim the state and Mississippi Silicon conspired to illegally shorten comments to prevent objections from Nucor, pointing to an MDEQ email. Nucor objected to the Big River Steel mill that a Correntiled group is building in Arkansas. Its Alabama subsidiary, Nucor Steel Decatur, asked to enter the suit Nov. 21.

“Mississippi Silicon and MDEQ believed, rightfully so, that Nucor might exercise its statutory right to comment on the proposed permit, something which they desired to avoid, and worked to curtail and

Aldermen recently approved seeking recertification as a Hometown Mississippi Retirement City, a stateprogram that helps communities market themselves as retirement locations.

The state is requiring all cities to reapply and the new certification would cover the city through 2020. The program has brought approximately 300 retirees to Corinth, said Alliance Community Development Director Andrea Rose.

Cities are evaluated on criteria including affordable cost of living, low taxes, low crime rate, recreation, educational and cultural opportunities, and an inviting community spirit.

income tax on their retirement income, seeking a more laid-back lifestyle, seeking a variety of affordable housing options and looking to enjoy mild winters for year-round outdoor recreation. They want to relocate to an area where they are less likely to outlive their financial resources.

The certified cities also benefit from exposure through the Mississippi Development Authority’s promotion of the program.

Locally, the program is allocated $10,000 each year for operation of the program.

“I am not asking for any additional money,” said Rose. “This is money that flows through our normal budget.”

Other certified communities in northeast Mississippi include Booneville and Tupelo.

Only five are expected to get recertification this year, and Rose wants Corinth to be among them.

JACKSON — Mississippi should change its academic goals even if the public schools superintendent wants to stick with the Common Core standards that have been put in place over the past several years, Republican Gov. Phil Bryant said Tuesday.

“What the superintendent needs to understand is that she’s not in charge of public education in Mississippi. The public is,” Bryant said. “And if the public in the state of Mississippi does not appreciate nor desire a Common Core curriculum, then we’re going to do away with it. Or, we’re going to at least try to amend it.”

Bryant’s comments came in response to reporters’ questions after he spoke at a telecommunications event in Jackson.

Most states have adopted Common Core standards, which outline goals of what children should learn in English and math while leaving specific curriculum choices to state and local boards.

Mississippi adopted Common Core in 2010 and has spent years implementing it.

The state is scheduled to have its first standardized testing under Common Core in 2015.

Bryant has said for the past year that he believes Common Core could give the federal government too much say in education. That reflects statements

by tea party groups and other conservatives who could be influential during Mississippi’s 2015 Republican primaries for governor and other state offices.

Bryant is seeking a second term.

Republican Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves presides over the state Senate, which rejected a proposal by several conservatives earlier this year to take money away from Common Core. Reeves, who is seeking re-election, said during a speech at a news media luncheon Monday that he wants to ditch Common Core because he believes it has been “hijacked by the Obama administration.” While Reeves said he supports state Superintendent of Education Carey Wright, he proposed appointing a group other than the state Board of Education to write different academic standards for Mississippi.

Wright and state Board of Education chairman John Kelly said in a joint statement Monday that developing new standards would be expensive and could take years.

After the governor’s comments about Wright on Tuesday, a Department of Education spokeswoman referred to the joint statement.

“We understand that the term ‘Common Core’ has become a lightning rod in some political circles, and as a result, has become attached to an unPlease see EDUCATION | 6A

Corinth, Miss.

The Ferguson fraud The bitter irony of the Michael Brown case is that if he had actually put his hands up and said, “Don’t shoot,” he almost certainly would be alive today.

His family would have Rich been spared an unspeakable Lowry loss, and Ferguson, Missouri, wouldn’t have experienced National Review multiple bouts of rioting, including the torching of at least a dozen businesses the night it was announced that Officer Darren Wilson wouldn’t be charged with a crime.

Instead, the credible evidence suggests that Michael Brown – after an act of petty robbery at a local business – attacked Officer Wilson when Wilson stopped him on the street.

Brown punched the officer when he was still in his patrol car, and attempted to take his gun from him.

The first shots were fired inside the car in the struggle over the gun. Then, Brown ran.

If he hadn’t put his hands up, but merely kept running away, he also would almost certainly be alive today. Again, according to the credible evidence, he turned back and rushed Wilson. The officer shot several times, but Brown kept on coming until Wilson finally killed him.

The case is a terrible tragedy. But it isn’t a metaphor for police brutality or race repression or anything else, and it never was. Aided and abetted by a compliant national media, the Ferguson protestors spun a dishonest or misinformed version of what happened – Michael Brown murdered in cold blood while trying to surrender – into a meme and a chant (”Hands up, don’t shoot”), and then a mini-movement.

When the facts didn’t back their narrative, they dismissed the facts and retreated into paranoid suspicion of the legal system. The grand jury process was rigged, they complained, because St. Louis prosecutor Robert McCulloch didn’t seek an indictment of Wilson and instead allowed the grand jury to hear all of the evidence and make its own decision. Who could really object to a grand jury hearing everything in such a sensitive case?

Then, there is the argument that Wilson should have been indicted so there could be a trial “to determine the facts.” If a jury of Wilson’s peers didn’t believe there was enough evidence to establish probable cause to indict him, though, there was no way a jury of his peers was going to convict him of a crime, which requires the more stringent standard of “beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Besides, we don’t try people for crimes they almost certainly didn’t commit just to satisfy a mob that will throw things at the police and burn down local businesses if it doesn’t get its way. If the grand jury had given in to the pressure from the streets and indicted as an act of appeasement, the mayhem most likely would only have been delayed until the inevitable acquittal in a trial. The agitators of Ferguson have proven themselves proficient at destroying other people’s property, no matter what the rationale.

Liberal commentators come back again and again to the fact that Michael Brown was unarmed and that, in the struggle between the two, Officer Wilson only sustained bruises to his face. The subtext is that if only Wilson had allowed Brown to beat him up and perhaps take his gun, things wouldn’t have had to escalate.

There is good reason for a police officer to be in mortal fear in the situation Officer Wilson faced, though. In upstate New York last March, a police officer responded to a disturbance call at an office when suddenly a disturbed man pummeled the officer as he was attempting to exit his vehicle, and then grabbed his gun and shot him dead. The case didn’t become a national metaphor for anything.

Ferguson, on the other hand, has never lacked for media coverage, although the narrative of a police execution always seemed dubious and now has been exposed as, essentially, a fraud. “Hands up, don’t shoot” is a good slogan. If only it was what Michael Brown had done last August.

(Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.)

Prayer for today Lord God, wilt thou reveal to me my weakness if I may be insincere; and give me the strength that I lack to keep me true. May I not take advantage of the ignorant, or thoughtlessly lead the innocent into temptation. Grant that I may be a trustful and kind friend. Amen.

A verse to share “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” Philippians 4:6

Opinions versus facts Everyone seems to have an opinion about the tragic events in Ferguson, Missouri. But, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan used to say, “You’re entitled to your own opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts.”

Soon after the shooting death of Michael Brown, this 285-pound young man was depicted as a “gentle giant.” But, after a video was leaked, showing him bullying the owner of a store from which he had stolen some merchandise, Attorney General Eric Holder expressed displeasure that the video was leaked. In other words, to Holder the truth was offensive, but the lie it exposed was not.

Many people who claimed to have been eyewitnesses to the fatal shooting gave opposite accounts of what happened. Some even gave accounts that contradicted what they themselves had said earlier.

Fortunately, the grand jury did not have to rely on such statements, though some in the media seemed to. What the grand jury had, that the rest of us did not have until the grand jury’s decision was announced, was a set of physical facts that told a story that was independent of what anybody said.

Three different medical

forensic experts – one representing Michael Brown’s parents – examined Thomas the physical Sowell facts. These facts includColumnist ed the autopsy results, Michael Brown’s DNA on the door of the police car and on the policeman’s gun, photographs of the bruised and swollen face of policeman Darren Wilson and the pattern of blood stains on the street where Brown was shot.

This physical evidence was hard to square with the loudly proclaimed assertions that Brown was shot in the back, or was shot with his hands up, while trying to surrender. But it was consistent with the policeman’s testimony.

Moreover, the physical facts were consistent with what a number of black witnesses said under oath, despite expressing fears for their own safety for contradicting what those in the mobs were saying.

The riots and looting that some in the media are treating as reactions to the grand jury’s decision not to indict the policeman, actually began long before the

grand jury had begun its investigation, much less announced any decision.

Why some people insist on believing whatever they want to believe is a question that is hard to answer. But a more important question is: What are the consequences to be expected from an orgy of anarchy that started in Ferguson, Missouri, and has spread around the country?

The first victims of the mob rampages in Ferguson have been people who had nothing to do with Michael Brown or the police. These include people – many of them black or members of other minorities – who have seen the businesses they worked to build destroyed, perhaps never to be revived.

But these are only the first victims. If the history of other communities ravaged by riots in years past is any indication, there are blacks yet unborn who will be paying the price of these riots for years to come.

Sometimes it is a particular neighborhood that never recovers, and sometimes it is a whole city. Detroit is a classic example. It had the worst riot of the 1960s, with 43 deaths – 33 of them black people. Businesses left Detroit, taking with them jobs and taxes that were very much needed to

keep the city viable. Middle class people – both black and white – also fled.

Harlem was one of many ghettos across the country that have still not recovered from the riots of the 1960s.

In later years, a niece of mine, who had grown up in the same Harlem tenement where I grew up years earlier, bitterly complained about how few stores and other businesses there were in the neighborhood.

There were plenty of stores in that same neighborhood when I was growing up. But that was before the neighborhood was swept by riots.

Who benefits from the Ferguson riots? The biggest beneficiaries are politicians and racial demagogues. In Detroit, Mayor Coleman Young was one of many political demagogues who were able to ensure their own reelection, using rhetoric and policies that drove away people who provided jobs and taxes, but who were likely to vote against him if they stayed. Such demagogues thrived as Detroit became a wasteland.

Who are the cowards now?

In July of 1967, after race riots gutted Newark and Detroit, requiring troops to put them down, LBJ appointed a commission to investigate what happened, and why.

The Kerner Commission reported back that “white racism” was the cause of black riots. Liberals bought it. America did not.

Richard Nixon said of the white racism charge that there is a “tendency to lay the blame for the riots on everyone but the rioters.”

The Nixon-George Wallace vote in 1968 was 57 percent to Hubert Humphrey’s 43. In 1972, Wallace was leading in the popular vote in the Democratic primaries, when he was shot in Laurel, Maryland. In November of 1972, Nixon and Agnew swept 49 states.

Among the primary causes of the ruin of FDR’s great coalition, and the rise of Nixon’s New Majority, was the belief in Middle America that liberals were so morally paralyzed by racial guilt they could not cope with minority racism, riots and crime.

And so they lost the na-

tion for a generation.

That same moral paralysis is on display in the aftermath Pat of the grand Buchanan jury conclusion that OfColumnist ficer Darren Wilson acted in self-defense when he shot Michael Brown on Aug. 9 in Ferguson, Missouri.

When initial reports came in, it seemed like a case of a cop gone berserk.

But, day by day, new facts emerged. The “gentle giant” Brown had, 15 minutes earlier, pulled off a strong-arm robbery, grabbing a store clerk half his size by the throat while stealing cigars.

And Brown was in the middle of the street, and maybe high on marijuana, when he refused an order to move onto the sidewalk.

Then came leaks from the grand jury that the 6’4”, 292-pound, 18-year-old punched the officer in the face in his patrol car and went for his gun, which fired twice, wounding Brown in the hand.

Wilson got out and told Brown to get on the ground, as Brown walked away. After this, what happened is in dispute.

Several grand jury witnesses perjured themselves by testifying that Wilson shot Brown in the back. All of Brown’s wounds were in the front. Others said Brown turned and faced Wilson, with four of them saying Brown moved toward or charged the officer.

The pattern of shells from Wilson’s gun indicates he was backing away while firing at Brown.

The grand jury concluded that not only did most witnesses support Wilson’s version, but the forensic evidence was consistent with what Wilson said had happened, and contradicted Brown’s lying companion.

Hence, no indictment, and wisely so.

What happened last week was not a tragedy but a national disgrace, a disgusting display of adult delinquency.

Monday night we witnessed in Ferguson a rampage of arson, shooting, looting and vandalism,

with police and National Guard ordered not to interfere. Stores and shops, the investments of a lifetime for their owners and the livelihood of their employees, were firebombed and pillaged as police looked on.

And where were the president and his attorney general?

Neither Barack Obama nor Eric Holder has yet to stand up and declare, unequivocally, that, in America, the full force of law will be used to halt, prosecute and punish those guilty of mob violence, no matter the nobility of the “cause” in which it is being committed.

Only three weeks in office, Eric Holder called us “a nation of cowards.” Observing his and his boss’ performance in the wake of the Ferguson riots and other rampages, the same word come to mind.

Across the Nation Associated Press

Likely nominee got stripes quiet way WASHINGTON — No household name, Ashton Carter has earned his stripes in the national security trenches the quiet way. For decades he has toiled as a defense thinker and strategist, nuclear expert, threetime Pentagon executive, budget guru and academician.

He never served in the military or in Congress, unlike many defense secretaries, including the man he would replace if President Barack Obama nominates him as Chuck Hagel’s successor. But he spent a lot of time with troops during his 2011-2013 stint as deputy defense secretary and has built relationships with an entire generation of military leaders during his years in the Pentagon.

Administration officials said Tuesday that Carter, 60, is expected to be Obama’s nominee, putting him in line to take over a far-flung, hard-tomanage department that has had an uneasy relationship with the White House.

Obama spokesman Josh Earnest stopped short of confirming that the president had made a decision, yet praised Carter effusively for serving “very, very ably” at the Pentagon previously and noted he had been easily confirmed by the Senate before.

“This is an indication that he fulfills some of the criteria that we’ve discussed in the past,” Earnest said. “He is somebody who definitely deserves and has demonstrated strong bipartisan support for his previous service in government.”

Administration officials said Obama could announce his nominee as early as this week.

The officials insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the president’s decision-making process publicly.

Air shipments of batteries questioned WASHINGTON — Dramatic U.S. government test results raise new concern that bulk shipments of rechargeable lithium batteries carried as cargo on passenger planes are susceptible to fires or explosions that could destroy the airliners.

Yet U.S. and international officials have been slow to adopt safety restrictions that might affect the powerful indus-

tries that depend on the batteries and the airlines that profit from shipping them. The batteries are used in products ranging from cellphones and laptops to hybrid cars.

Shipments of rechargeable batteries on passenger planes are supposed to be limited to no more than a handful in a single box, under safety standards set by the U.N.’s International Civil Aviation Organization and adopted by the U.S. and other nations. But a loophole permits shippers to pack many small boxes into one shipment and get around the rules.

Tens of thousands of the batteries may be packed into pallets or containers and loaded into the cargo holds of wide-body passenger planes.

In an April test by the Federal Aviation Administration, a cargo container was packed with 5,000 lithium-ion batteries and a cartridge heater added to simulate a single battery experiencing uncontrolled overheating. The heat from the cartridge triggered escalating overheating in nearby batteries, which spread in a chain reaction. Temperatures reached about 1100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Rolling Stones’ sax player Keys dies NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Saxophonist Bobby Keys, a lifelong rock ‘n’ roller who toured with Buddy Holly, played on recordings by John Lennon and laid down one of the all-time blowout solos on the Rolling Stones’ “Brown Sugar,” has died.

He was 70.

Michael Webb, who played keyboard with Keys, said Keys died Tuesday at his home in Franklin, Tennessee, after a lengthy illness.

Keys had been on tour with the Stones earlier this year before his health prevented him from performing.

“The Rolling Stones are devastated by the loss of their very dear friend and legendary saxophone player, Bobby Keys,” the band said in a statement. “Bobby made a unique musical contribution to the band since the 1960s. He will be greatly missed.”

Keys, one of the few rock saxophonists to become a name in his own right, was a heavy-set man with jowls to match and had a raw, piercing sound. The Lubbock, Texas, native was born the same day as Keith Richards — Dec. 18, 1943 — and the Stones guitarist would often cite Keys as a soul mate and

Rain brings mudslide fears, evacuations LOS ANGELES — Heavy rain from a powerful Pacific storm swept through California on Tuesday, and residents in some wildfire-scarred communities scrambled to evacuate as authorities warned of mudflows from unstable hillsides.

The rain began falling overnight in Northern California, but the heaviest downpours were expected in Southern California later in the day, prompting both relief in the drought-stricken state and concern about flooding and mudslides on denuded slopes.

Coastal residents also braced for the thick tangle of garbage and debris that gets washed from city streets, into storm drains and then onto beaches during the first major winter storm each year.

Three years of devastating drought has left the Sierra Nevada snowpack — which counts for most of the state’s water supply — at just 24 percent of normal for this time of year. Downtown Los Angeles has had less than half of the rain it would have in a normal year.

Experts doubt North Korea hacked Sony Some cybersecurity experts say it is unlikely North Korea was behind the cyberattack that crippled Sony Pictures’ computers and possibly leaked unreleased movies online.

Speculation has been rampant that the hardline communist state sponsored last week’s hack in anger over the new Sony movie “The Interview,” in which Seth Rogen and James Franco play television journalists assigned by the CIA to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “State-sponsored attackers don’t create cool names for themselves like ‘Guardians of Peace’ and promote their activity to the public,” said cybersecurity expert Lucas Zaichkowsky.

He said the details he has seen point instead to hacktivists, who break into computers to make a political point, often one involving the free exchange of information on the Internet. Hacktivists targeted Sony in the past.

“The Interview” comes out on Christmas. Over the summer, North Korea warned that the release of the comedy would be an “act of war that we will never tolerate.”

Bryant’s visit touts diabetes network RULEVILLE — Gov. Phil Bryant and Federal Communications Commission member Mignon Clyburn are to visit the North Sunflower Medical Center campus in Ruleville today.

They will get a look at how the North Mississippi Medical Center’s Diabetes Telehealth Network is working. The event is scheduled for 3 p.m.

The network recruited about 200 diabetic patients this spring in the Mississippi Delta to participate in an 18-month remote care management program.

Board adopts building code OXFORD — Lafayette County supervisors have adopted new building codes that will take effect May 1, 2015.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports the rules approved Monday are a modified version of the 2012 International Building Code.

Under a new state law, Mississippi counties had to either adopt one of three versions of the IBC code or else opt out of imposing a building code.

The rules apply to all commercial construction and to residential construction inside approved subdivisions. It will not apply to agricultural buildings, mobile homes or homes constructed outside of subdivisions and will exclude requirements

for fire sprinklers in all residential construction.

Dismissal of black farmers’ suit upheld

Governments give to FNC expansion

JACKSON — A federal appeals court has upheld the dismissal of a black farmers group’s defamation lawsuit against Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood.

A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. District Court of Appeals in New Orleans said Monday that sovereign immunity protects comments by Hood in his official capacity.

In October 2013, Hood warned in a news release about a possible scam involving a fee charged to help black farmers file claims for a national settlement when the deadline had expired.

Thomas Burrell and the Black Farmers and Agriculturalists Association sued in December 2013, arguing Hood had interfered and had continued to interfere with the group’s right to associate with its members.

OXFORD — State and local governments are contributing more than $6.5 million toward the new headquarters that mortgage software company FNC Inc. is building in Oxford.

Company officials and Gov. Phil Bryant broke ground Tuesday. FNC expects to invest $20 million and hire 310 new employees, completing the campus by 2016.

The Mississippi Development Authority is giving FNC $4 million for site preparation and a federal community development grant for $2 million to build an access road. Oxford, Lafayette County and FNC are each contributing $71,000 to the road. The state is giving another $300,000 for public improvements and $100,000 for worker training.

Obama wants to avoid ‘militarized’ police ways Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said Monday he wants to ensure the U.S. isn’t building a “militarized culture” within police departments, while maintaining federal programs that provide the type of military-style equipment that were used to dispel racially charged protests in Ferguson, Missouri.

Instead, the president is asking Congress for funding to buy 50,000 body cameras to record events like the shooting death of an unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown and look for ways to build trust and confidence between police and minority communities nationwide. He announced the creation of a task force to study success stories and recommend ways the government can support accountability, transparency and trust in police.

Attorney General Eric Holder announced on Monday new Justice Department plans aimed at ending racial profiling and ensuring fair and effective policing.

“In the coming days, I will announce updated Justice Department

guidance regarding profiling by federal law enforcement, which will institute rigorous new standards — and robust safeguards — to help end racial profiling, once and for all,” Holder said in Atlanta.

With protests ongoing in Ferguson and across the country, Obama spoke to reporters at the end of a White House meeting with police, civil rights activists and local leaders and acknowledged the participants told him that there have been task forces in the past and “nothing happens.”

“Part of the reason this time will be different is because the president of the United States is deeply invested in making sure that this time is different,” Obama said.

He said he was upset to hear the young people in the meeting describe their experiences with police. “It violates my belief in what America can be to hear young people feeling marginalized and distrustful even after they’ve done everything right.”

At least for now, Obama is staying away from Ferguson in the

wake of the uproar over a grand jury’s decision last week not to charge Darren Wilson, the police officer who fatally shot Brown. The U.S. Justice Department is investigating possible civil rights violations that could result in federal charges, but investigators would need to satisfy a rigorous standard of proof. Justice also has launched a broad investigation into the Ferguson Police Department.

Obama is proposing a three-year, $263 million spending package to increase use of body-worn cameras, expand training for law enforcement and add more resources for police department reform.

The package includes $75 million to help pay for 50,000 of the small, lapel-mounted cameras to record police on the job, with state and local governments paying half the cost. Estimates vary about the precise number of full-time, sworn law enforcement officers in communities across the U.S., though some federal government reports in recent years have placed the figure at roughly 700,000.

GOP seeks funding, immigration plan Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Year-end holidays beckoning, House Republicans struggled Tuesday to coalesce behind a plan that avoids a government shutdown next week and simultaneously challenges President Barack Obama’s decision to spare millions of immigrants from deportation.

A separate bipartisan bill to extend dozens of expiring tax breaks was on a more certain track for approval, even though it would increase federal red ink by an estimated $44 billion over a decade.

Republicans supported it, although they intend to mount a strong anti-deficit campaign

next year, and the White House signaled that Obama would sign the one-year measure after threatening to veto a longer-term version.

Taxes, spending and immigration are the dominant issues in the final few weeks of a twoyear Congress that has been a hothouse for partisan gridlock — and that seemed on track for one final showdown if not more.

After meeting privately with the House GOP rank and file, Speaker John Boehner of Ohio said Obama’s actions on immigration were a “serious breach of our Constitution.”

The administration countered. “The reality is that, for decades, pres-

idents have used executive authority to enhance immigration policy,” Secretary Jeh C. Johnson of the Department of Homeland Security told a skeptical House committee. He said he was “fully comfortable” that the president had acted within his authority in directing federal agencies not to make a priority of deporting immigrants in the country illegally, as long as they were otherwise lawabiding.

Republicans were unsparing in their denunciations of the president’s actions, although some also said their chances of staying Obama’s hand would be stronger after the party takes control of the Senate in January.

Rules to change some people’s wait for kidney

BY LAURAN NEERGAARD Associated Press

WASHINGTON — New rules this week are bringing changes to the nation’s kidney transplant system that will give some patients a better shot at a longer-lasting organ, and move others up the waiting list.

The goal is to get the maximum benefit out of a scarce resource: kidneys from deceased donors.

“Not everyone’s going to get the same benefit out of a kidney transplant,” said Dr. Matthew J. Ellis of Duke University Medical Center, who is optimistic the new policy will help. “We’re trying to apply commonsense principles to address those issues.”

The long-awaited changes from the United Network for Organ Sharing, or UNOS, come as the gap between who needs a new kidney and who gets one widens. Nearly 102,000 people are on the national waiting list for a kidney, while fewer than 17,000 transplants

“Not everyone’s going to get the same benefit out of a kidney transplant. We’re trying to apply commonsense principles to address those issues.”

Dr. Matthew J. Ellis Duke University Medical Center are performed each year.

Roughly 11,000 transplants are thanks to kidneys donated from someone who just died rather than living donors.

How long you’ve been waiting is the main factor in deciding who gets the next available cadaver kidney.

But starting Thursday, the fittest of those kidneys — based on donor age and medical history — will be offered first to patients who are expected to survive a transplant the longest.

Called longevity matching, the hope is that these typically younger adults won’t outlive their new organ and need another that could have gone to

someone else.

Nearly 15 percent of transplant candidates are awaiting a repeat operation, and “the potential here is that we will reduce return to the waiting list,” said Dr. Richard N. Formica of Yale University, who chairs UNOS’ kidney transplant committee.

Another big change: People who started dialysis before getting in line for a transplant will be credited for that dialysis time, moving them up on the waiting list.

The less time spent on dialysis, the better the prognosis after a transplant. Yet how quickly people are put on the transplant list varies around the coun-

try, and minorities and people who live in rural and poorer areas tend to spend more time on dialysis.

Michael Brown, 31, of Cleveland has undergone dialysis since he was 20 because of an inherited disorder. But he wasn’t put on the transplant list until three years ago, when he saw a new doctor who told him, “You need to be active, and you shouldn’t be tied to a machine.”

Brown said he hadn’t pushed to be listed sooner partly because of fear, and partly because no one had fully explained the benefits of an earlier transplant. He got in shape for a transplant, and was excited to learn he’ll get credit for those years on dialysis.

“It is definitely a blessing,” Brown said. Receiving an organ “will be an incredible gift that I could never repay.”

Recalculating waiting lists and estimating patients’ life expectancy has been a big job for transplant centers.

“We’re scrambling to get this done,” said Dr. John Roberts, transplant chief at the University of California, San Francisco, one of the nation’s largest kidney programs.

But he called the changes necessary to begin dealing with rapid growth in transplant demand, mostly by people over age 50, which in turn has lengthened wait times.

In parts of the country, the wait can average five years. Last year, 4,485 people died waiting.

Children already get priority for transplants.

Among the changes for adults: ■ The longevity matching would pair the kidneys expected to last the longest with the 20 percent of patients predicted to have the longest post-transplant survival.

Every candidate will receive a score based on their age, length of dialysis, if they’re diabetic and if they’ve had a previous transplant of any organ.

■ On the other end, the 15 percent of kidneys expected to last the shortest

amount of time will be offered first to a wider area of the country than other kidneys.

The idea is that someone expected to live only a few more years anyway might prefer a quicker transplant rather than staying on dialysis in hopes a better kidney comes along.

■ The system also will give extra priority to people who are particularly hard to match because of blood type or because their immune systems are abnormally primed to attack a new organ.

The changes can’t address the need for more organ donors, noted Duke’s Ellis. Because some regions have more donors than others and organs are offered locally first, his team encourages patients to consider getting on waiting lists at more than one transplant center.

And try asking relatives or friends if they’d consider giving a kidney: “The best way is to bring a living donor to the table,” he advised.

Hotter and weirder: How climate has changed Earth

BY SETH BORENSTEIN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — In the more than two decades since world leaders first got together to try to solve global warming, life on Earth has changed, not just the climate. It’s gotten hotter, more polluted with heat-trapping gases, more crowded and just downright wilder.

The numbers are stark.

Carbon dioxide emissions: up 60 percent.

Global temperature: up six-tenths of a degree.

Population: up 1.7 billion people. Sea level: up 3 inches. U.S. extreme weather: up 30 percent.

Ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica: down 4.9 trillion tons of ice.

“Simply put, we are rapidly remaking the planet and beginning to suffer the consequences,” says Michael Oppenheimer, professor of geosciences and international affairs at Princeton University.

Diplomats from more than 190 nations opened talks Monday at a United Nations global warming conference in Lima, Peru, to pave the way for an international treaty they hope to forge next year.

To see how much the globe has changed since the first such international conference — the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 — The Associated Press scoured databases from around the world.

The analysis, which looked at data since 1983, concentrated on 10-year intervals ending in 1992 and 2013. This is because scientists say single years can be misleading and longer trends are more

telling.

Our changing world by the numbers:

Wild Weather Since 1992, there have been more than 6,600 major climate, weather and water disasters worldwide, causing more than $1.6 trillion in damage and killing more than 600,000 people, according to the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters in Belgium, which tracks the world’s catastrophes.

While climate-related, not all can be blamed on man-made warming or climate change. Still, extreme weather has noticeably increased over the years, says Debby Sapir, who runs the center and its database. From 1983 to 1992 the world averaged 147 climate, water and weather disasters each year. Over the past 10 years, that number has jumped to an average 306 a year.

In the United States, an index of climate extremes — hot and cold, wet and dry — kept by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has jumped 30 percent from 1992 to 2013, not counting hurricanes, based on 10year averages.

NOAA also keeps track of U.S. weather disasters that cost more than $1 billion, when adjusted for inflation.

Temperature It’s almost a sure thing that 2014 will go down as the hottest year in 135 years of record keeping, meteorologists at NOAA’s

National Climatic Data Center say. If so, this will be the sixth time since 1992 that the world set or tied a new annual record for the warmest year.

The globe has broken six monthly heat records in 2014 and 47 since 1992.

The last monthly cold record set was in 1916.

So the average annual temperature for 2014 is on track to be about 58.2 degrees (14.6 degrees Celsius), compared with 57.4 degrees (14.1 degrees Celsius) in 1992. The past 10 years have averaged a shade below 58.1 degrees — six-tenths of a degree warmer than the average between 1983 and 1992.

square miles of sea ice over the past 22 years.

On Land The world’s population in 1992 was 5.46 billion.

Today, it’s nearly a third higher, at 7.18 billion.

That means more carbon pollution and more people who could be vulnerable to global warming.

The effects of climate change can be seen in harsher fire seasons.

Wildfires in the western United States burned an average of 2.7 million acres each year between 1983 and 1992; now that’s up to 7.3 million acres from 1994 to 2013, according to the National

Interagency Fire Center.

And some of the biggest climate change effects on land are near the poles, where people don’t often see them. From 1992 to 2011, Greenland’s ice sheet lost 3.35 trillion tons of ice, according to calculations made by scientists using measurements from NASA’s GRACE satellite.

The Air Scientists simply point to greenhouse gas emissions, mostly carbon dioxide, that form a heat-trapping blanket in our air.

There’s no need to average the yearly amount of carbon dioxide pollution: It has increased steadily, by 60

percent, from 1992 to 2013.

In 1992, the world spewed 24.9 billion tons of carbon dioxide; now it is 39.8 billion, according to the Global Carbon Project, an international consortium.

What Scientists Say “Overall, what really strikes me is the missed opportunity,” Andrew Dessler, a climate scientist at Texas A&M University, said in an email.

“We knew by the early 1990s that global warming was coming, yet we have done essentially nothing to head off the risk. I think that future generations may be justifiably angry about this.”

The Oceans The world’s oceans have risen by about 3 inches since 1992 and gotten a tad more acidic — by about half a percent — thanks to chemical reactions caused by the absorption of carbon dioxide, scientists at NOAA and the University of Colorado say.

Every year sea ice cover shrinks to a yearly minimum size in the Arctic in September — a measurement that is considered a key climate change indicator. From 1983 to 1992, the lowest it got on average was 2.62 million square miles. Now the 10year average is down to 1.83 million square miles, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center.

That loss — an average 790,000 square miles since 1992 — overshadows the slight gain in sea ice in Antarctica, which has seen an average gain of 110,000

2015 stock outlook:

Up, but bumpy

Stocks will keep rising next year, but not by much and not without causing heartburn.

Many Wall Street investment banks are calling for the Standard & Poor’s 500 index to climb a fourth straight year. But they warn not to expect another 2013, when the S&P 500 calmly rose nearly 30 percent, or another 2014, which has seen a more herky-jerky 11.8 percent gain.

On the plus side, corporate earnings are expected to continue to grow. Stock prices tend to track earnings growth over the long term, and analysts expect growth of 9.6 percent in 2015. That, plus expectations for continued stock buybacks and other factors, means Credit Suisse says the S&P 500 may

hit 2,200 by the middle of next year. That’s 6.5 percent higher than Tuesday’s close, but Credit Suisse doesn’t expect the S&P 500 to stay there.

Stocks typically fall after the Federal Reserve begins hiking interest rates, and that’s widely expected to happen in 2015.

Wages could also be on the upswing given the falling unemployment rate, which could crimp corporate profits. All told, Credit Suisse expects the S&P 500 to end 2015 at 2,100, which would mark a rise of less than 2 percent.

Economic report card The latest edition of a Fed survey should provide insight into the economy’s health.

The central bank’s Beige Book functions as a snapshot of business conditions in each of the Federal Reserve’s 12 regional bank districts. October’s Beige Book depicted an economy moving ahead steadily but not at a pace that would prompt the central bank to accelerate its timetable for raising interest rates. The new Beige Book is due out today.

Promotions, gas prices boost U.S. auto sales

BY DEE-ANN DURBIN AND TOM KRISHER Associated Press

DETROIT — American shoppers passed on the malls and headed to the car dealerships over Thanksgiving weekend.

Black Friday promotions — coupled with falling gas prices, lowinterest loans and hot new vehicles — drove U.S. auto sales higher in November, kicking off what’s expected to be a strong holiday season.

Subaru and Chrysler led the major automakers with sales increases around 20 percent on strong demand for their small SUVs. It was Subaru’s best November ever and Chrysler’s best November in 13 years.

General Motors, Toyota, Honda and Volkswagen also reported gains.

Sales fell at Ford, Hyundai and Nissan.

According to a National Retail Federation survey of 4,000 shoppers, sales were down 11 percent to $50.9 billion over the four-day holiday compared to a year ago.

Car-buying site Kelley Blue Book estimated that 25 to 30 percent of November’s new vehicle sales happened over the holiday weekend thanks to a flurry of Black Friday promotions.

A move by retailers to discount merchandise in the days and weeks before Thanksgiving appeared to cut down on store traffic over the holiday weekend.

But that wasn’t the case with cars. Car-buying site Kelley Blue Book estimated that 25 to 30 percent of November’s new vehicle sales happened over the holiday weekend thanks to a flurry of Black Friday promotions. Because the holiday came late in the month, buyers also benefited from dealers’ usual month-end sales push.

New vehicle sales rose 5 percent to 1.3 million, according to Autodata Corp.

It was the second-fastest monthly sales pace this year, after August.

Sales are on track to end the year at around

16.5 million, said Jesse Toprak, a senior analyst with Cars.com. That’s up 6 percent from 2013.

In November, buyers looking for really good deals could find them on outgoing 2014 models, while others snapped up 2015 models that are just arriving in dealerships, like the new Ford Mustang and Toyota Highlander.

The sales were fueled by incentives, like zeropercent financing on new Chevrolets and a $3,500 credit on a new BMW. But automakers still made healthy profits as buyers loaded their vehicles with extras like navigation. As of mid-November, buyers were spending an average of $30,874 per vehicle, or $165 more than the previous record of $30,709 in

October, according to consulting firms J.D. Power and LMC Automotive.

Low gas prices accelerated a trend toward SUVs. Gas prices fell 23 cents in November to a four-year low of $2.76 per gallon, according to AAA. Sales of the new Nissan Rogue small SUV jumped 44 percent, while the Jeep Cherokee was up 67 percent. The Honda CR-V saw its best November ever, with sales up 38 percent to more than 32,000.

Even big SUVs saw gains; sales of the eight-passenger Lincoln Navigator jumped 88 percent.

Cars struggled to get noticed. Ford Fusion sales dropped 11 percent, while Nissan Altima sales were down 7 percent. For the most part, only new cars like Volkswagen’s Golf subcompact and Chrysler’s 200 midsize sedan saw sales increases.

“You have to be new to make progress in the car market right now,” said Michelle Krebs, a senior analyst with AutoTrader.com.

The industry expects more of the same in De-

cember, which is always a big month for luxury sales.

Trucks and SUVs normally get a seasonal boost in the winter, Toprak said, but this year low gas prices will amplify the increase.

“It will probably the best December in many, many years,” Toprak said.

GM’s sales rose 6 percent to 226,000. Cadillac sales dropped 19 percent, but Buick and GMC both saw double-digit gains.

Toyota’s sales rose 3 percent to 183,346 as its luxury Lexus brand posted its best November sales ever. But Prius hybrid sales dropped 13.5 percent, a victim of lower fuel prices.

Ford’s sales dropped 2 percent to 187,000.

Ford’s SUV sales were up 15 percent, but sales F-150 pickup sales fell 10 percent to 59,000 as older inventory dwindled and the new 2015 model began to trickle in to dealerships.

Ford’s rivals took advantage. Ram pickup sales jumped 21 percent to nearly 36,000, while GM sold nearly 69,000

Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks. Sierra sales were up 57 percent over last November.

Other automakers that reported Tuesday: ■ Honda’s sales rose 5 percent to 121,814. Honda’s car sales fell 2.5 percent, but sales of the CR-V and Pilot SUVs were strong.

■ Nissan’s sales fell 3 percent to 103,188. Truck and SUV sales were up but car sales weakened.

Sales of the electric Leaf were up 34 percent despite low gas prices.

■ Hyundai’s sales dropped 4 percent to 53,672. Sales of the new Genesis sedan rose 57 percent, but that didn’t make up for weaker sales of the Accent and Elantra small cars.

■ Subaru’s sales rose 24 percent to 45,273. Sales of the new Legacy sedan nearly doubled from a year ago, while sales of the Outback wagon were up 60 percent.

■ Volkswagen’s sales rose 3 percent to 31,725 on strong sales of the new Golf subcompact.

Classrooms across nation reflecting on Ferguson decision

BY CHRISTINE ARMARIO

“The goal is to assist students in being able to exercise their First Amendment rights, to speak out on things they feel passionate about.”

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — When his high school English students came to class, Tom Rademacher knew there would be one thing on their mind: a grand jury’s decision not to indict the white police officer who shot and killed Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.

So the Minneapolis teacher put aside his lesson plans for the day and asked them a simple question: How did they feel?

Some teens said they were sad, others angry.

One said he logged off Twitter and Facebook to avoid dealing with upset friends.

“That’s the definition of white privilege,” student Nia Golston replied. “You get to look away while I, being African-American, have to live like this.”

In the aftermath of the Ferguson announcement, classrooms across the nation are taking up uncomfortable topics — race, police use of force and poverty, among others — to give students a voice and help them make sense of events.

Some teachers are using the discussion to weave in history lessons.

One school in the Bronx read Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”

Others are reviewing primary source documents, like officer Darren Wilson’s grand jury testimony, to study the case in detail. Some are just inquiring about the emo-

Holly Priebe-Diaz Intervention coordinator for the Los Angeles Unified School District tions evoked by the killing of a person not much older than most high school students.

In a story so focused on young black people and their communities, “we aren’t hearing enough from black teenagers about what they’re feeling and what they’re thinking about and what their experiences are,” Rademacher said.

Sites such as TeachableMoment.org and groups including Facing History and Ourselves, a nonprofit in Brookline, Massachusetts, are providing teachers with guidance on incorporating Ferguson into their lessons. Teachers are sharing their ideas and classroom experiences online with hashtags such as #FergusonSyllabus and #FergusonInClass.

“All the things you hear in the larger community are happening in the microcosm called the classroom,” said Steve Becton, social program director of urban education at Facing History and Ourselves. “For the teachers not allowing it to happen, I think it’s a missed opportunity.”

Becton advises teachers to ask nuanced ques-

tions: What is the role of law in society? And if a law seems insufficient, how can it be challenged?

What is the relationship between African-American males and law enforcement?

“How do we help students understand that history?” Becton asked.

“Ultimately education is not about facts and dates and figures but about participating in democracy and participating in a civil discourse.”

School districts in Los

Angeles and Washington, D.C., have provided teachers with instructions for leading Ferguson discussions.

“The goal is to assist students in being able to exercise their First Amendment rights, to speak out on things they feel passionate about,” said Holly Priebe-Diaz, intervention coordinator for the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Teacher Gregory Michie, who instructs middle-school students in a predominantly Mexican neighborhood in Chicago, spent five weeks earlier this year discussing the context of the Ferguson case, First Amendment issues and media coverage.

“I teach in a neighborhood where a lot of kids have seen violence,” he said. “There is a certain level of mistrust, skepticism.”

free to share their feelings, Becki Cohn-Vargas said.

Rademacher has encouraged students to stay focused on having a discussion, not winning an argument. That approach produced a robust exchange of ideas.

“It’s just amazing to hear stories from black students because this is something me, as a white person, I don’t ever experience,” student Liz Fesenmaier said. “I don’t get the talk from my mother, ‘Be careful of the police.’ We get, ‘If you’re ever in trouble, tell a trusted adult, like a police officer.’”

Elsewhere, the topic is less welcome or completely off-limits. Teachers in one Illinois classroom, for example, were advised earlier this year not to talk about the case in class.

The hesitation sometimes comes from parents or students.

The director of Not in Our School, a network that encourages tolerance, said she received a call from teachers in one Tennessee district who said some students were wary of discussing the case. Teachers told the students they were in a safe space and should feel

Photo gallery of perfection makes woman feel insecure Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby

D E A R ABBY: I was divorced three years ago and have had a boyfriend, “Roger,” for a year and a half. He is seven years younger, and he’s intrigued with women

on the Internet.

He saves tons of photos of these girls on his cellphone.

These ladies are “perfect.”

They have big breasts and curvaceous behinds, etc. I have had two kids. I’m not overweight and I exercise and keep myself in shape, but I have a “Mom body.”

Roger has told me he loves my body and everything about me.

But the feeling I get is that he wishes I looked like those girls.

I have asked Roger not to save these photos because it makes me insecure. If he’s going to look, fine. But saving them is another thing.

He promised me he wouldn’t, but some of them are still there.

So he not only makes me feel like a fatty, but he lies to me, too.

He has more pictures of other girls than he does of me.

Now I no longer feel comfort-

able undressing in front of him.

I leave my clothes half-on and turn out the lights when we have sex. He has made me unable to stand myself. What do I do?

-- CAN’T COMPARE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CAN’T COMPARE: The first thing to do would be to stop looking at your boyfriend’s cellphone.

Then ask yourself whether he has been seeing other women or just collecting pictures. If it’s the former, you have something to worry about.

If it’s the latter, it’s no reflection on you, and he has voyeuristic tendencies (men are visual).

Stop making comparisons. He says he loves your body. Unless you have a solid reason to think differently, believe him.

You are overdue for a frank talk with Roger, and when you do, tell him everything you have written to me. Your problem may go deeper than his photo gallery and your lowered self-image.

If you can’t trust what he tells you, the foundation of your relationship isn’t solid.

system, mentor, adviser, disciplinarian and friend for 12 years because his father is rarely in the picture.

He swore me to secrecy, which I want to respect, but I’m torn about telling my daughter.

She has a right to know that her son is sexually active and needs closer supervision.

We discussed condoms (they used them), accidental pregnancy, possible criminal charges and responsibility, but I think he is more proud than alert to the possible consequences.

If I share this with my daughter, I break a long-held trust.

When I urged him to tell his mother, he refused.

What do I do? This is tearing me up. -- KANSAS GRANDPA DEAR GRANDPA: Without betraying the confidence, start talking to your daughter about how, at 14, her son is fast becoming a man with all that it entails, including raging hormones.

Then suggest she have some frank talks with the boy and keep a closer eye on him, unless she wants to become a grandma be

DEAR ABBY: I’m carrying a heavy burden concerning my 14-year-old grandson.

He told me in strictest confidence that he had sex with a 14-year-old girl.

I have been his male support

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Beware of the desire to meddle and fix people. As pure as your intentions may be, it’s too easy to act outside of your rights. The best way is to respect the choices of others as long as they are not hurting anyone.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You may not have the patience to explain yourself, and when you execute your work privately, you won’t have to. This may simply be a matter of taking it home.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

There’s a fickle feeling in you now. Diversity is what you need -- in the company you keep and the places you go. If you can’t make it happen today, at least make plans for an adventure in the near future.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Your relationship with yourself may be too overbearing at this point to be considered healthy.

As you reduce the amount of chatter in your head, you start to see the way clearly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t want everyone to notice

you today, just those who think and feel as you do. And if that one certain person were to give you a nod, it would feel better than the attention of the whole world.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Over the years, your kindly gestures have paved the way for excellent business rapport, built friendships and bonded loved ones to you. You’ll now be reminded of this with hard evidence.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Much will be accomplished with minimal socializing. Moving among a stellar mix of people may bring career gains, give you inside information, help your love life or motivate you to higher achievements.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You’ll work harder on yourself than you will on any project or job. Personal development pays off in unforeseen ways. For starters, you’ll have something to talk about with those on a similar path of self-improvement.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). The efforts you make now will help you put on a fantastic performance later. Stock up on inspiration, and don’t deprive yourself of any opportunity to witness those who help you see what’s possible.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The loving thing to do isn’t always the easiest thing to do.

Once again, taking the high road will be a challenge. It will help to think about all that the other person has gone through lately.

You’re up to this.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

It’s easy to get so wrapped up in celebrity culture that you begin comparing yourself to the mighty players. Today this isn’t about Hollywood; it’s about the superstars of your community or industry.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

As psychic as you are, you find your own future difficult to predict. It’s better that way -- you’ll delight in the surprises to come.

Here’s a hint, though: Travel is in the works. Are you happy with your luggage set?

Daytona Rising redevelopment forces cancellation of UNOH Battle at the Beach from Budweiser Speedweeks One of the relatively new, but very popular, events of Speedweeks at Daytona — the UNOH Battle at the Beach — is moving away from its original home on a makeshift course on the backstretch of Daytona International Speedway to nearby New Smyrna Speedway, one the area’s most popular asphalt short tracks.

The move is necessary because the Daytona Rising renovations underway at Daytona International Speedway will see the backstretch grandstands removed, and those were the stands used for the Battle at the Beach, which included races for NASCAR Modified drivers and for NASCAR’s K&N Pro Series — a development series for young drivers.

But officials from NASCAR and Daytona International Speedway point out that those drivers will still race in the area and will still be part of Speedweeks in February.

Speedway president Joie Chitwood issued the following statement: “For the past two years, the UNOH Battle at the Beach has produced thrilling racing on our backstretch. It was necessary for us to make this difficult decision given that we will open 40,000 new seats during Budweiser Speedweeks 2015 as part of the DAYTONA Rising redevelopment project, and will remove the backstretch grandstands prior to 2016 racing season. We are pleased to see the NASCAR K&N Pro Series and the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series will remain in Central Florida during Budweiser Speedweeks at New Smyrna Speedway and encourage fans to attend those exciting races.”

The former Battle at the Beach will be contested as part of the New Smyrna’s traditional World Series of Racing, which is set for Feb. 12-21, 2015.

Title games set for this weekend

BY CURTIS ROCKWELL The Mississippi Press

JACKSON — For the first time in four seasons, neither Pascagoula nor Picayune will represent the South in Class 5A in the state football finals.

Instead, a team that beat both the Panthers as well as another local team in the playoffs will play in the big game.

Laurel meets Oxford Saturday night at 7 in the Class 5A state title tilt. The Golden Tornadoes beat both East Central and Pascagoula in the playoffs on their way to the championship contest.

“We are certainly happy to be here,” Laurel head coach Todd Breland said Monday. “There were a lot of really good teams in the South this season.

We are fortunate to be the last one standing.”

For the first time ever, all six state title games are being played in Starkville at Davis-Wade Stadium on the campus of Mississippi State University.

There are three games on Friday and three more games on Saturday as the

Northeast ready for busy week

BY BLAKE LONG Northeast Sports Information Director

BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College’s basketball programs must resume their normal pace quickly with two huge home contests looming upon returning from the initial lengthy layoff of the 2014-15 campaign.

The Lady Tigers and Tigers open Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) North Division play Thursday when East Mississippi Community College visits the City of Hos-

pitality.

Before the conference tilts in the latter half of the week, Northeast welcomes Arkansas Baptist College to historic Bonner Arnold Coliseum on Tuesday for one final tune-up doubleheader.

The action gets underway at 5:30 p.m. each evening with women’s action first followed by the men’s game approximately 20 minutes after the conclusion of the lid lifter.

Those that cannot attend the matchups can watch them live on NEMCCTV, which is the new broadcast home of all nine Northeast intercolle-

giate athletic programs. Join Jeremy Kennedy, the Voice of the Tigers, at 5:15 p.m. every night for the pregame show by visiting www.nemcctv. com.

Fans can also keep up during the contests with live ingame updates on Twitter by searching and following @ NEMCCTigers.

Both Northeast squads are thrilled about the start of conference competition as they seek to capitalize on a solid opening month of the new season.

“The beginning of division play is an exciting time,”

said Tigers head coach Cord Wright. “It will be a great challenge for us, but we hope that being at home and in front of a great crowd will give us the extra boost that we will need.”

Northeast fields one of the most successful units at the charity stripe in the entire National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA).

The Tigers are currently 13th countrywide and second in the state with a 74.4 free throw percentage.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Brady Hoke is out after four years at Michigan.

Interim athletic director Jim Hackett made the announcement Tuesday after weeks of speculation about Hoke’s future.

“I wanted to make sure that Brady received adequate time to exhibit the results that would come from his effort and I believe that Brady and our coaching staff had enough time to

produce those results and unfortunately they are not there,” said Hackett, who took over as AD last month. “In the end, I feel that moving in a different direction is the right decision.”

Hoke did not return a message left seeking comment. In a statement provided by the school, he thanked his players and said he would miss them.

“I feel very fortunate to have been an assistant and head coach at the University of Michigan,” said Brady Hoke. “I will always support the univer-

sity and this football program.”

Hired after the tumultuous tenure of Rich Rodriguez, Hoke was supposed to help Michigan regain its place among college football’s elite, and his familiarity with the program’s culture and tradition made the initial transition a successful one.

But after going to the Sugar Bowl in Hoke’s first season, the Wolverines slowly slipped back into mediocrity and are not even among the top teams in the Big Ten. Hoke was 31-20 as

the Wolverines’ coach after the team floundered to a 5-7 record this season and missed out on bowl eligibility along with Big Ten also-rans Indiana, Purdue and Northwestern. He was just 18-14 against conference foes.

Michigan has not won the Big Ten since 2004, and the Wolverines are now 1-10 in their last 11 games against Ohio State.

The school said Mike DeBord will oversee the football program as sport administrator until a new head coach is hired.

UAB announces its closure of football program

BY JAY REEVES Associated Press

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — UAB is shutting down the football program after one of the Blazers’ stronger seasons.

The university announced the decision Tuesday minutes after President Ray Watts met with the Blazers players and coaches, while several hundred UAB students and fans gathered outside for the third straight day in efforts to support the program. UAB made the decision after a campus-

wide study conducted by a consulting firm over the past year.

“The fiscal realities we face — both from an operating and a capital investment standpoint — are starker than ever and demand that we take decisive action for the greater good of the Athletic Department and UAB,” Watts said in a statement released by the university. “As we look at the evolving landscape of NCAA football, we see expenses only continuing to increase. When

considering a model that best protects the financial future and prominence of the Athletic Department, football is simply not sustainable.”

UAB said in a release that it subsidizes $20 million of the athletic department’s operating budget of some $30 million annually, and said both those numbers rank fifth in Conference USA. The university said the difference over the next five years would be an extra $49 million with football, including a projected

$22 million needed for football facilities and upgrades.

UAB is the first major college program since Pacific in 1995 to shut down.

Players cried and hugged after leaving the meeting. An emotional coach Bill Clark, who just completed his first season with a 6-6 record, briefly addressed supporters, saying players, families and coaches were all hurting. UAB is eligible for only its second bowl appearance and first since 2004.

Mettenberger injury only adds to Titans’ woes

BY TERESA M. WALKER Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee’s ever-increasing list of injuries now puts the Titans into position to evaluate rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger in an area they hoped to avoid.

The rookie sprained his right, throwing shoulder Sunday when sacked by J.J. Watt, knocking him out of the Titans’ 45-21 loss to the

Houston Texans. Mettenberger couldn’t return in that game, and his status for Sunday hosting the New York Giants is in question.

But coach Ken Whisenhunt said Monday the sprain isn’t as bad as the Titans feared with Mettenberger moving pretty well. They have to see how the rookie recovers during the week, and how Mettenberger handles his first NFL injury will give

the Titans another glimpse into whether he can be their quarterback past December.

“That’s what the NFL as a player is all about,” Whisenhunt said. “It’s a tough game.

You’ve got to be able to do that. You’ve got to be able to rally and come back and play. ... You certainly don’t want put players at risk. That’s not what it’s about. But you don’t feel great this time of year in the NFL no matter what

you’ve done so you have to work through those things.”

Mettenberger already was playing behind a patchwork offensive line when hurt.

The Titans played without three starters — left tackle Taylor Lewan, center Brian Schwenke and right tackle Michael Oher — because of injuries. Oher heard a pop during warmups and didn’t Please see TITANS | 13A

perfect on his free shot attempts through six outings. Dimario Jackson remains a steady athletes during his sophomore year and leads the Tigers with 15.3 points per matchup.

The combination of Raheem Sorrell and Dexter Stafford in the post has proven to be dangerous for Northeastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opposition. Sorrell is second with 9.2 points each contest for the Tigers (3-3) while Stafford averages a team-high 5.7 rebounds.

Northeastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s women, which already own victories against reigning NJCAA National Tournament participants Baton Rouge (La.) Community College and Southwest Mississippi Community College, look to add another marquee win to their resume when they face the defending MACJC North Division champion Lady Lions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a big week for us,â&#x20AC;? Lady Tigers headman Brian Alexander said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are excited about the opportunity to play these critical games in front of our fans.â&#x20AC;?

Daisha Williams is pacing a Northeast squad that is 18th in the NJCAA with 83.8 points per matchup. The Columbus native has tallied 14.8 points each outing and is one of just three studentathletes in the country to wield a perfect free throw percentage through November.

Aushiana Ivy also hits double-figures for the Lady Tigers with 12 points and a team-best 6.6 rebounds. Northeast (3-2) averages 14.8 steals and is topped by Dashi-

yah Agnewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2.2.

Arkansas Baptist has lost 11 consecutive womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contests since opening the campaign with a win over Kaskaskia (Ill.) College. The Lady Buffaloes feature three double-digit scorers, including Chelsea Payneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12.2 points and Emani Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10.3 points per game.

Sixteen different men have scored for a deep Arkansas Baptist (7-5) roster. Sophomore Fred Albright is one of the elite players for the Buffaloes with 14.7 points, six rebounds and three assists per tilt.

Former prep AllAmerican Ki-Ki Patterson is East Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top threat with 16.3 points on six made field goals each outing. Ashley Johnson is strong on the boards for the Lady Lions (2-4) with an average of 10.

East Mississippi appears at No. 24 in the NJCAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preseason rankings. The Lions use a high-octane offense on the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side with four double-digit scorers and 89.3 points through its inaugural three matchups as a unit.

Antonio Finley is the lone returning starter for East Mississippi (21) and is recording a team leading 22 points.

Laâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Datren Deas and Jahyde Gardiner follow Finley with 10.7 points apiece.

It is the first meetings between Arkansas Baptist and Northeast since January 30, 2012 while East Mississippi swept the pair of twinbills between the two longtime adversaries one season ago.

play, leaving only six linemen available. Right guard Chance Warmack hurt an ankle later in the third quarter.

Watt landed on Mettenberger after the rookie threw a pass to Kendall Wright in the third quarter, and the rookie couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return.

Mettenberger was 13 of 19 for 184 yards with a touchdown and an interception with a passer rating of 95.1.

The one interception was a pass that led to receiver Justin Hunter being hit and lacerating his spleen. Hunter went to a Houston hospital and remained there Monday, though Whisenhunt said Hunter has stabilized and should be released within the next couple days. Asked if Hunter will miss the rest of the season, Whisenhunt only said they will know more later this week.

On the throw Hunter was hurt, Whisenhunt said Mettenberger should have thrown the ball to the other side of the field.

The sixth-round draft pick out of LSU said after the game heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tough guy and expects to play when the New York Gi-

ants (3-9) visit Sunday.

Whisenhunt said the soreness will be a factor in how well Mettenberger can throw.

The Titans now have lost six straight and 10 of their last 11 overall.

Whisenhunt said they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen Mettenberger yet in a tight game late or with the Titans protecting a late lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting some evaluation of Zach in as tough a situation as you can possibly be in,â&#x20AC;? Whisenhunt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no question what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing him do is invaluable as far as evaluating him.â&#x20AC;?

If the rookie quarterback plays, whether he has his starting tackles back remains to be seen. Lewan is out of the walking boot trying to strengthen his sprained left ankle. Oher missed the first game of his sixyear career.

The Titans are in the easiest stretch of their schedule with a combined seven wins among the next three opponents among the Giants, Jets and Jaguars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be nice to certainly get a win, and I hope we recognize that as a team ... we got to play better football,â&#x20AC;?

Whisenhunt said.

Mississippi High School Activities Association wraps up yet another football season.

The championship weekend kicks off Friday morning at 11 with the Class 1A game which pits Natchez Cathedral against St. Al. The Green Wave of NCHS beat Resurrection earlier in the season.

The Class 2A state championship game follows at 3 that afternoon, featuring Bassfield against Calhoun City. The first day of play concludes with the Class 6A game Friday night at 7 pitting South Panola against Oak Grove. Oak Grove eliminated Ocean Springs in

the Class 6A South State semifinals.

On Saturday, the Class 3A games kick things off at 11 that morning as Collins faces Charleston.

Then at 3 that afternoon, the Class 4A game features St. Stanislaus vs.

Noxubee County.

The championship weekend wraps up with the Laurel-Oxford game for the Class 5A title at 7 Saturday night.

Despite the successful seasons by Pascagoula and Picayune as well as Wayne County and East Central and Gautier among others this year, most prep football observers in the state picked Laurel and Oxford to face off in the state champion-

Cool Wave pansies bring cheer to winter gardens I don’t keep it a secret that I think pansies are the perfect plants for coolseason annual beds.

They are really easy plants to grow, and they progreat Gary vide color durBachman ing cold winters.

Southern The MaGardening trix pansy is always a great choice because of the way it displays flowers high above its foliage.

But lately I’ve been admiring the unique trailing growth habit of Cool Wave pansies.

Cool Wave pansies are much more vigorous than the standard pansy varieties. These plants are well branched and can fill a landscape bed or hanging basket with good color from fall all the way to next spring. The Wave in

the name may sound familiar to those who grow petunias in the summer.

Cool Wave pansies were developed by the same folks who brought the popular Wave petunias to many of our gardens.

There is quite a selection of attractive Cool Wave pansy colors to go along with traditional white, yellow and purple.

There is Violet Wing, with its happy duo of white and elegant, velvety, deep purple; Frost, with its abundance of white flowers lightly shaded lavender-blue; Blueberry Swirl, with plentiful yellow-faced flowers surrounded by baby blue; and my favorite, Sunshine ’n Wine, a bright, sunny yellow with mellow burgundy wings and accented flowers. All these flowers have whisker lines radiating from their centers, resembling delicate artist brushstrokes.

Cool Wave pansies are well suited for growing in combination containers as the spiller plant.

Try combining them with Ruby Streaks or Red Giant mustard as the thriller and Montego dwarf snapdragon or Telstar dianthus for colorful fillers.

I am particularly impressed with pansies’ cold tolerance in the garden and landscape. The Cool Wave trailing pansies are hardy through U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Zone 5, so they are well adapted for all of Mississippi.

During really cold weather, these plants will appear to freeze, but when temperatures moderate, the plants will have only minor damage.

The most visible effect of extreme cold weather will be some purpling of the foliage. Although any flowers open during these very low temperatures will be goners, the flowering will return very quickly with warmer weather.

The fall and winter months can be dry, and it is important to maintain consistent moisture for pansies. Many gardeners don’t realize that all pansies are heavy feeders and will stop flowering if nutrition gets too low. Apply a water-soluble fertilizer every couple of weeks to maintain good plant growth.

Cool Wave trailing pansies need to be grown in at least six hours of full sun each day for the best flowering and growth.

Choose a color you like and plant them today to

Man misses military career WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am a 23-year-old man. I served in the army and deployed to Afghanistan. I was medically discharged for PTSD about two years ago.

I’m currently going to school to be a firefighter, but I’m afraid I’ve picked this field not because it interests me, but because I cannot go back into the military.

I’m working in an office now, and I hate my job.

Before this, I worked at a department store and as a machinist. But, Annie, I can’t see myself anywhere but with the military.

What should I do? -- Lost Soldier Dear Lost: Those who have been in the military sometimes have difficulty accepting a job that is less exciting or challenging.

The intensity of the military experience and the bonding with one’s fellow soldiers can make everything else pale in comparison. For some, it takes a great deal of time to readjust. Check out military.com for other job opportunities for veterans, and also Career One Stop (careeronestop.org) at 1-877-348-0502. Military OneSource offers suggestions and website links for transitioning military mem-

Annie’s Mailbox bers that might also be helpful for you (militaryonesource.mil/ transition).

Dear Annie: I have been a widower for almost three years. For the past six months, I’ve been seeing a nice lady for a friendly relationship. She also lost her spouse several years ago.

My lady friend and I have dined out a few times, and she has questioned why I still wear my wedding ring. Annie, my wife was my only love. We were together more than 60 years. I will never love anyone like that again.

Is it right for me to wear my wedding ring? -- Widower Out East Dear Widower: You actually have two issues: How long should you wear your wedding ring once you have begun dating again, and is a casual girlfriend of six months entitled to tell you to remove it?

Wearing your wedding ring gives the impression that you are still connected to your first wife and not ready to move on.

Nonetheless, wearing it is your decision, not your girlfriend’s.

Widows often remove a wedding band and wear it on their other hand or have it refashioned into a necklace or other piece of jewelry, allowing them to continue wearing it in a less prominent location. You might consider this when you are ready.

Dear Annie: I’d like to address this to “Unhappy Mother of a Son”: You are not alone. I haven’t seen my son since Mother’s Day, when I got my annual 30-minute visit. Yet every week, my son goes to dinner with his wife’s parents.

Last month, they went on a family vacation with his in-laws.

On Thanksgiving, my daughter-in-law didn’t even take her coat off or sit down when they came by.

I am totally excluded from my son’s life except for a few text messages that he sends when I suspect his wife isn’t around.

I am not a nasty person. I am quite nice to my daughter-in-law. I buy her lovely presents for her birthday and Christmas.

Not every mother-inlaw is a monster, and not every daughter-in-law is a daughter. -- Another Unhappy Mother of a Son
