GATLINBURG, Tenn. — “Daddy knelt down in the center of the charred rubble that used to be our home, and prayed ... it was the most powerful prayer I’d ever heard,” said 16-year-old Stanton Sweeney. t was six days ago when the former Corinth teenager and his family lost their beloved cabin to the Great Smoky Mountains firestorm disaster.

Both city and county law enforcement recently made arrests in the burglary of commercial storage buildings.

Billy Mullins, 33, of Thomas Street, Corinth, was arrested by the Corinth Police Department and charged with burglary of a commercial building. After his release on bond last week, he was picked up by the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Department and charged with two counts of burglary of a commercial building.

Sheriff Ben Caldwell said the county also charged Lisa Langston Null, 43, also of Thomas Street, with two counts of burglary of a commercial building.

Capt. Dell Green of the Corinth Police Department said an investigation found Mullins was allegedly stealing items from the North Side Mini Storage on Polk Street and selling them through social media.

The county burglaries occurred at Oakview Storage on County Road 602 and Kossuth Mini Storage on County Road 618 in October and early November. Caldwell said the sheriff’s office executed a search warrant at an apartment on Thomas Street and recovered several items stolen from the storage units.

“My family is everything to me,” said 37-year-old Lesley Bain. “I live a pretty fastpaced life, but there’s nothing about it I would change.” The Corinth High School librarian and cheer sponsor has been married to her high school sweetheart, State Rep. Nick Bain, for 15 years. Together they have three children, Baylee Anna, 10, Brooks, 6, and Baker 3. A 12-year teaching veteran, Bain said interaction with her students is one of the most important parts of her job. “I’m the Interact Club sponsor which is a branch of the Corinth Rotary Club,” said Bain. “We’re working right now toward the Christmas basket fundraiser. A lot of my kids will be out there helping build and giveaway baskets on Dec. 17.”

WILDFIRE CONTINUED FROM 1A

Stanton told the Daily Corinthian. “Gatlinburg has been, by every sense of the word, completely devastated.”

A former Corinth landscaping business owner, Bob Sweeney Jr., and his son Stanton returned to their neighborhood two days after the fire.

“On either side of the roads, was just blackness. All the trees had been reduced to black toothpicks. All that remained were skeletons and foundations of where our neighbors homes had once stood,” said young Stanton. “I thought I would be scared or afraid, but really I was completely terrified.” he last time the teenager was in his neighborhood was Monday night when a orange glow filled the horizon of the night sky.

The trouble began when a wildfire, likely caused by arson, spread from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park into the Gatlinburg area of Sevier County in East Tennessee. Hurricaneforce winds toppled trees

More than 14,000 residents and visitors in Gatlinburg were forced to evacuate, and the typically bustling tourist city was shuttered.

Stanton said he only grabbed a few things – a change of clothes, a phone charger and his camera.

“I figured we’d be back later that night.” he said.

His mother, Stephanie, his six-year-old brother,

Abram, and Stanton raced to a friend’s house in nearby Sevierville and away from the imposing danger.

His dad was on a visit to Corinth when Gatlinburg was evacuated on Monday.

It wasn’t until Friday when local officials, bowing to pressure from frustrated property owners, allowed people back into most parts of the city.

The Sweeneys, however, were able to make their way back into their neighborhood on Wednesday afternoon.

“We had seen photos and videos on Facebook and the news, but nothing could prepare us ... it was much worse than anything we’d seen,” said Stanton.

“Every direction I looked was completely burned and unrecognizable.”

He added, “The smell was simply sickening ... one I’ll remember until the day I die.”

Then, there it was, according to Stanton, his family’s home reduced to a burning pile of nothing and a fireplace.

“It was an eerie feeling”, he said.

“We immediately began trying to relate different parts of the pile of junk to what it was two days ago,” said Stanton.

“We spent a good bit of time just examining the mess that our house had been reduced to. Eventually we realized we were wasting our time.”

In communities near Gatlinburg, there were signs of normalcy. In Pigeon Forge, the Comedy House rented an electronic billboard message that said it was open. A hotel flyer urged guests to check out the scenic Cades Cove loop: “Take a drive and remember what you love about the Smokies!”

Near the park entrance and down the Parkway into Gatlinburg, it was much different.

Inside the park, soot, ash and blackened trees covered the forest floor.

Tree-topped mountain ranges were scarred by large areas of blackened soil and trees. Small plumes of smoke smoldered from hot spots.

“The beautiful community we once knew is no more,” said Stanton. “It’s amazing how quickly life can change.”

Like many in the resort

area, the former Alcorn County residents plan to stay in the mountains.

Between phone calls to insurance companies, the Sweeneys will attempt to restart their lives.

“The coming days I’m sure will prove to be challenging for my entire family, but the support we have already received especially from folks back home in Corinth has been unbelievable,” added Stanton. “At this point, all I know to do is pray ... pray that Gatlinburg will once again see daylight.”

(The Dollywood Foundation has created the My People Fund which will provide $1,000 per month for up to six months to Gatlinburg and Sevier County families who lost their homes in the wildfire.

Donations are accepted online at dollywoodfoundation.org or by mail at The Dollywood Foundation My People Fund, 111 Dollywood Lane, Pigeon Forge, TN., 37863.)

Local/Region Across the Region

Booneville Retired emergency manager honored

Today is Sunday, Dec. 4, the 339th day of 2016. There are 27 days left in the year.

BOONEVILLE — Members of the Mississippi Civil Defense/ Emergency Management Association honored retired Prentiss County Emergency Management Director Ralph Lauderdale with a lifetime achievement award last week.

Emergency managers and association members from throughout the region came together to honor Lauderdale, who retired in June.

The group brought a resolution read at its most recent meeting praising Lauderdale for his service. It read: “Ralph Lauderdale was director for the Prentiss County EMA and joined MCDEMA in November 1989.

He was extremely active in MCDEMA from the beginning by serving on committees, such as chairman of the by-laws committee and a member of the legislative and resolution committee.

Ralph attended numerous conferences, both annual and mid-winter, and was always willing to serve and do whatever was needed.

He received level one of the Mississippi Certified Emergency Manager Program in June of 2010.

Ralph served as district four director from 1995-2007 and then as district two direc-

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 4, 1816, James Monroe of Virginia was elected the fifth president of the United States.

On this date: In 1619, a group of settlers from Bristol, England, arrived at Berkeley Hundred in present-day Charles City County, Virginia, where they held a service thanking God for their safe arrival.

In 1783, Gen. George Washington bade farewell to his Continental Army officers at Fraunces Tavern in New York.

In 1816, Gioachino Rossini’s opera “Otello,” an adaptation of the Shakespeare play which preceded Giuseppe Verdi’s “Otello” by 71 years, premiered in Naples, Italy.

In 1918, President Woodrow Wilson left Washington on a trip to France to attend the Versailles Peace Conference.

In 1945, the Senate approved U.S. participation in the United Nations by a vote of 65-7.

Ripley Drug court system is added in Tippah RIPLEY – Tippah County now has a drug court system that allows offenders to attend their mandatory scheduled meetings locally, reported the Southern Sentinel.

Drug court provides alternative treatments combined with supervision for people living with serious substance use and mental health disorders.

Drug courts are also problemsolving courts that take a public health approach using a specialized model in which the judiciary, prosecution, defense bar, probation, law enforcement, mental health, social service and treatment communities work together to help addicted offenders into long-term recovery.

Judge Kelly Luther has been the Circuit Court Judge in Ripley for two years and is also a judge in other surrounding areas such as Union, Tippah, Marshall, Benton, Chickasaw and Lafayette County.

He said that it is his job to identify those that are on drugs and/or alcohol and help them

stop substance abuse.

“The biggest challenge is identifying a good candidate and turning them into a productive member of society. That is my job,” Luther said.

The drug court program is designed to help keep the offender off drugs and potentially create a better lifestyle. The offender would have to report to drug court two times a week, and as long as they follow the rules, pay their fines and court fees, they can complete the program in three to five years.

If they violate the terms and conditions of the program, they will be to be taken to jail and their time in the program will be prolonged.

If one successfully completes drug court, their record can be wiped clean so that they can have opportunities that they might not have otherwise.

“Previously, we held the courts in Oxford.

“At the first of November, we started having them in Ripley to make it easier on the people in the surrounding area who were accepted in the program who did not have the money, a car or the family support to get them to court two times a week,” Luther said.

Corinth, Miss.

Our View

Please help, contribute to Christmas Basket Fund It’s a long-standing tradition in Corinth and Alcorn County.

And it needs help from the community.

We speak of the annual Daily Corinthian / Corinth Rotary Club Christmas Basket Fund.

The fundraising goal is set at $23,000 to support the program, which provides around 1,000 baskets filled with food and paper products for those in the community who meet the requirements.

As in year’s past, donations from the community are crucial for the event to be a success.

Donations can be dropped off at the Daily Corinthian office on Harper Road or mailed to Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, Miss. 38835.

The neat aspect of donations to this program is the mention of family and friends who are greatly missed this special holiday season.

Anyone alive can also be honored.

Donations can be made in honor or memory of any individual. All donations will be acknowledged in the newspaper in a daily update published on the front page throughout the holidays.

Applications for Christmas baskets were submitted in November. The baskets will be given away on Saturday, Dec. 17, beginning at 8 a.m. at the Crossroads Arena to those whose applications have been approved.

As in past years, the Corinth Rotary Club said there is a big need by many people to have a box full of groceries during the Christmas season.

Please give and support this great cause.

Prayer for today Almighty God, show me what thou hast given for me to do, that I may not leave undone that which is mine. Forgive me for useless planning and blind asking for the things which cannot be mine. I pray that my work may be honest work, well done, and acceptable for thy service. Amen.

A verse to share For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

– Colossians 1:13-14

The Populist-nationalist tide rolls on Now that the British have voted to secede from the European Union and America has chosen a president who has never before held public office, the French appear to be following suit.

In the runoff to choose a candidate to face Marine Le Pen of the National Front in next spring’s presidential election, the center-right Republicans chose Francois Fillon in a landslide.

While Fillon sees Margaret Thatcher as a role model in fiscal policy, he is a socially conservative Catholic who supports family values, wants to confront Islamist extremism, control immigration, restore France’s historic identity and end sanctions on Russia.

“Russia poses no threat to the West,” says Fillon. But if not, the question arises, why NATO? Why are U.S. troops in Europe?

As Le Pen is favored to win the first round of the presidential election and Fillon the second in May, closer Paris-Putin ties seem certain. Europeans themselves are pulling Russia back into Europe, and separating from the Americans.

Also, Italy holds a referendum on constitutional reforms backed by Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. If the referendum, trailing in the polls, fails, says Renzi, he will resign.

Opposing Renzi is the secessionist Northern League, the Five Star Movement of Pat former comeBuchanan dian Beppe Grillo, and Columnist the Forza Italia of former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, a pal of Putin’s.

“Up to eight of Italy’s troubled banks risk failure,” if Renzi’s government falls, says the Financial Times.

One week from today, the front pages of the Western press could be splashing the newest crisis of the EU. In welcoming Muslim immigrants, Germany’s Angela Merkel no longer speaks for Europe, even as she is about to lose her greatest ally, Barack Obama.

Not only Europe but the whole world President-elect Trump is about to inherit seems in turmoil, with old regimes and parties losing their hold, and nationalist, populist and rightist forces rising.

NATO’s Turkey and our Arab ally, Egypt, both ruled by repressive regimes, are less responsive to U.S. leadership.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye, her approval rating in single digits, is facing impeachment and

prosecution for corruption.

Meanwhile, North Korea, under Kim Jong Un, continues to test nuclear warheads and missiles that can hit all of South Korea and Japan and reach all U.S. bases in East Asia and the Western Pacific.

The U.S. is obligated by treaty to defend South Korea, where we still have 28,500 troops, and Japan, as well as the Philippines, where new populist President Rodrigo Duterte, cursing the West, is pivoting toward Beijing. Malaysia and Australia are also moving closer to China, as they become ever more dependent on the China trade.

Responding to our moving NATO troops into Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, Putin has begun a buildup of nuclear-capable offensive and defensive missiles in Kaliningrad, its enclave between Poland and Lithuania.

Should we get into a confrontation with the Russians in the Eastern Baltic, how many of our NATO allies, some now openly proPutin, would stand beside us?

The point: Not only is the Cold War over, the post-Cold War is over. We are living in a changed and changing world. Regimes are falling. Old parties are dying, new parties rising.

Old allegiances are fraying, and old allies drifting away.

The forces of nationalism and populism have been unleashed all over the West and all over the world.

There is no going back.

Yet U.S. policy seems set in concrete by war guarantees and treaty commitments dating back to the time of Truman and Stalin and Ike and John Foster Dulles.

America emerged from the Cold War, a quarter century ago, as the sole superpower. Yet, it seems clear that we are not today so dominant a nation as we were in 1989 and 1991.

We have great rivals and adversaries. We are deeper in debt. We are more divided.

We’ve fought wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen that availed us nothing. What we had, we kicked away.

America is at a plastic moment in history.

And America needs nothing so much as reflective thought about a quarter century of failures -- and fresh thinking about her future.

Democrats and the Nazi card

BY LARRY ELDER Guest Columnist

Rep. Keith Ellison, DMinn., the odds-on favorite to become the Democratic National Committee’s chairman, had a long association with the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam. He compared thenPresident George W. Bush and 9/11 to Adolf Hitler and the destruction of the Reichstag, the German parliament building: “9/11 is the juggernaut in American history and it allows ... it’s almost like, you know, the Reichstag fire,” Ellison said. “After the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it, and it put the leader of that country (Hitler) in a position where he could basically have authority to do whatever he wanted.”

Comparing Republicans to Nazis has long been a national pastime of the Democratic Party.

During the 1964 Goldwater/Johnson presidential race, Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater accepted an invitation to visit an American military installation located in Bavaria, Germany. On “CBS Evening News,” hosted by Walter Cronkite, correspondent Daniel Schorr said: “It is now clear that Sen. Goldwater’s interview with Der Spiegel, with its hard line appealing to right-wing elements in

Germany, was only the start of a move to link up with his opposite numbers in Germany.” The reaction shot -when the cameras returned to Cronkite -- showed the “most trusted man in America” gravely shaking his head.

When Goldwater accepted the Republican nomination, Democratic California Gov. Pat Brown said, “The stench of fascism is in the air.”

About Ronald Reagan, Steven F. Hayward, author of “The Age Of Reagan” wrote: “Liberals hated Reagan in the 1980s. Pure and simple. They used language that would make the most fervid anti-Obama rhetoric of the Tea Party seem like, well, a tea party. Democratic Rep. William Clay of Missouri charged that Reagan was ‘trying to replace the Bill of Rights with fascist precepts lifted verbatim from Mein Kampf.’”

After Republicans took control of the House in the mid-’90s, Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., compared the newly conservative-controlled House to “the Duma and the Reichstag,” referring to the legislature set up by Czar Nicholas II of Russia and the parliament of the German Weimar Republic that brought Hitler to power.

Former Vice President Al Gore said: “(George W. Bush’s) executive branch

has made it a practice to try and control and intimidate news organizations, from PBS to CBS to Newsweek. ...

And every day, they unleash squadrons of digital brown shirts to harass and hector any journalist who is critical of the President.”

Actor/singer and activist Harry Belafonte, who marched with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., called Bush a racist. When asked whether the number and prominence of blacks in the Bush administration perhaps suggested a lack of racism, Belafonte said, “Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich.”

NAACP Chairman Julian Bond played the Nazi card several times. Speaking at Fayetteville State University in North Carolina in 2006, Bond said, “The Republican Party would have the American flag and the swastika flying side by side.”

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who dared to rein in excessive public employee compensation packages, received the full Nazi treatment. The hard-left blog Libcom.org posted in 2011: “Scott Walker is a fascist, perhaps not in the classical sense since he doesn’t operate in the streets, but a fascist nonetheless. ... He is a fascist, for his program takes immediate and direct aim at (a sec-

tor of) the working class.”

After the 2012 Republican National Convention, California Democratic Party Chairman John Burton said, “(Republicans) lie, and they don’t care if people think they lie. As long as you lie, (Nazi propaganda minister) Joseph Goebbels -- the big lie -- you keep repeating it.”

The chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, Dick Harpootlian, in 2012, compared the state’s Republican governor to Hitler’s mistress. When told that the Republicans were holding a competing press conference at a NASCAR Hall of Fame basement studio, Harpootlian told the South Carolina delegation: “(Gov. Nikki Haley) was down in the bunker, a la Eva Braun.”

If not the Nazi card, it’s the race card or the sexist card or the homophobic card.

This “I’m right; you’re evil” brand of politics has a lot to do with why voters elected Donald Trump, rather than Hillary “basket of deplorables” Clinton, to serve as our next president.

Strickland bridge wreck The Mississippi Highway Patrol is investigating a two-car wreck with injuries which happened just after 11 a.m. Saturday on the eastbound U.S. 72 bridge at Strickland near the Alcorn Central Road intersection. The two vehicles apparently collided on the bridge, one with considerable damage to its front and the other with much damage to the passenger side. Many agencies, including the Glen Fire Department, responded to the scene to help control traffic, which remain blocked just after the accident.

Author: Baseball brings people together

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Trivial or historical, Phil Dixon knows the baseball diamond.

The author is the next speaker in conjunction with the Smithsonian’s “Hometown Teams: How Sports Shape America” exhibit. Appearing at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Crossroads Museum, Dixon is the author of “The Negro Baseball Leagues — A Photographic History” and co-founder of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City.

Dixon will focus on how baseball brought people together.

“I’m going to talk about the Negro leagues as they pertain to Mississippi and some of the great things that came out of the Negro leagues that people might want to know in the way of diversity and integration,” said Dixon. “When people think

As a child, he collected baseball cards, amassing about 100,000 by the time he was 20. He played baseball in high school and read the sports’ stories. He had an opportunity to get involved with the big leagues in the public relations department of the

Phil Dixon, author Kansas City Royals, allowing him to meet players like George Brett and Bo Jackson.

In 2014, concerned about the state of race relations in the country, he embarked on a mission to do something about it, using baseball to build bridges as it did in the past. He has since spoken in 140 cities.

“I’m having the time of my life because I’m meeting people who truly love their communities. They love history and they love baseball,” said Dixon. “I combine all of that in my

talk and we have a wonderful time.”

A resident of Belton, Mo., Dixon also penned “The Ultimate Kansas City Baseball Trivia Quiz Book” and is a professional musician and an instructor of youth baseball.

He hopes to see young people at his Corinth talk.

“It will be the most unique sports talk you’ve ever heard,” he said.

The lecture is free and the Smithsonian exhibit continues in the auditorium of the Corinth Library.

A pair of training sessions are set for this week as the Lighthouse Foundation gears up for Toy Store 2016.

Foundation Executive Director Gary Caveness said they have approximately 1,500 children registered to receive gifts through the annual program and donations and volunteers are still needed to make it happen.

Volunteer training sessions are set for 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. this Monday and Tuesday. All those volunteering with the program must attend one of these two sessions, said Cave-

ness.

He said fundraising is at approximately the halfway point with the giveaway/shopping day set for this Thursday.

Caveness said donations are desperately needed and they have faith the community will come together once again to help them make the program a success as they work to provide for hurting families.

Donations can be made in person at the foundation or by mail to P.O. Box 2121, Corinth, MS 38835.

For more information on the program call the Lighthouse Foundation at 662-286-0091.

Fire came with little warning Associated Press

GATLINBURG, Tenn. — Tracey Mayberry told her boss to fire her.

It was 2 o’clock Monday afternoon in Gatlinburg, and the sky was dark with smoke. Mayberry’s shift as a manager at the resort where she worked did not end until 5 p.m., but she could see a wildfire crawling down the mountain. Local officials said the city had nothing to worry about, and Mayberry’s boss had no plans to close. But she knew something was wrong, so she walked home, coughing and crying through the smoke until a stranger handed her a mask.

That wildfire had ignited five days earlier on a steep, rugged peak known as Chimney Tops, about 4 miles away from Gatlinburg. In less than 24 hours, aided by 87 mph winds and months of suffocating drought, the blaze would spread, forging a path to this tourist mecca. In all, 13 people were killed, about 85 were injured and nearly 1,000 homes and businesses were charred or destroyed.

The flames came with little warning.

At 5 o’clock, there were no fires in Gatlinburg. Within an hour, 20 buildings were ablaze.

Over the next few hours, the fires transformed a city busily preparing for holiday festivities in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains into the scene of a grim, building-by-building search for the missing and the dead. Rain fell

by midweek, dousing much of the fire but leaving hollow-eyed city officials, firefighters and police officers working around the clock. Many had to put news of their own gutted homes from their minds.

Tracey and her husband — also named Tracy — packed their 2007 Ford Escape with valuables. They stopped when a tree fell on their house and sparks from a downed powerline showered their yard. It was time to go.

They did not get far. Traffic was snarled on the parkway heading out of town. Tracy, sitting anxiously behind the wheel, watched as the wind blew a fireball into the Alamo Steakhouse just a few feet from his window. He gunned the engine and swerved into the middle turn lane, the speedometer racing toward 90.

“I wasn’t stopping for nothing or nobody,” he said.

The fire had been burning for several days, mostly in the unreachable peaks of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park not far from the edge of one of the most popular hiking trails.

The fire was so small and so remote that for days firefighters could not get to it. Instead they came up with a plan to contain it. But beginning Sunday afternoon and into Monday morning, the moisture vanished from the air, the temperature rose and the wind began galloping through the trees.

School district makes large debt payment

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Debt is being made off in the Alcorn School District.

The county school district has paid almost $1 million on debt accounts so far in 2016.

Finance Director Kimberly Woodard gave an update district debt and finances at a recent Alcorn County school Board of Education meeting.

The district currently

has three different bonds or notes payable accounts.

Woodard said all three have or will receive payments from the district this year.

Among the debt includes a limited obligation bond issued in February 2006 that will end in February 2018. The balance was a little over $1.4 million this summer.

“A principal and interest payment was made

in August for $540,000, which lowered the overall balance to $975,000,” said Woodard. “This payment is made throughout reduction in MAEP (Mississippi Adequate Education Program) funds.”

The state withholds about $525,000 from the district’s MAEP each year to pay the bond, which was originally floated to build new gymnasiums at Kossuth and Alcorn Cen-

tral high schools.

Issued in May 2007 for $3 million, a second debt account currently has a balance of more than $1.2 million. A three-mill tax levy, funds generated from this revolving credit account are used over time for district operations.

“In this school year, we will make a $170,000 payment which will bring our balance to $1,085,000,” said Woodard. “This debt

is paid through tax collections.”

The final debt account is a school construction bond payable for Johnson Controls. Originally a $2.6 million loan in 2010, funds were used to upgrade each school with more energy efficient air conditioning, lighting and other electrical components.

“We pay $144,000 each year into this sinking fund. We also pay

$126,000 in interest each year, but a portion of it is refunded as a credit,” added Woodard. “So we get a little back each year.”

Although the district has since ended its annual contract with Johnson Controls for monitoring service, the initial installation debt won’t expire until November 2025.

According to Woodard, each debt account is currently in “good-standing.”

MAC grants available to local arts community

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

With the common goal to improve the arts in the Crossroads community, Corinth Theatre-Arts hosted Meet MAC earlier this week.

Representatives from the Mississippi Arts Commission was in Corinth recently meeting with local organizations and businesses who might

benefit from MAC’s array of services and grants.

The commission’s Arts Industry Director Turry Flucker said MAC was created in 1968 by the Mississippi Legislature as the official grants-making and service agency for the arts in the Magnolia state.

“The commission is funded in part by the state but also receives substantial funding from the Na-

tional Endowment for the Arts,” said Flucker. “With these funds, the commission provides financial support in the form of grants for eligible arts programs and for the work of individual artists.”

Grants for non-profits available through the commission include mini-grants for up to $1,000 for small-scale activities, project grants for

festivals and events for up to $5,000 and operating grants for on-going work for up to $15,000.

All grants must somehow support the development of Mississippi communities through the arts and require a dollar-for-dollar local match.

CT-A has received an operating grant from MAC for several years.

“MAC has provided in-

valuable support of CT-A throughout the years when we’ve needed it most, through improvement projects and other areas,” said CT-A board member Josh Steen. “We are able to operate every year because of their support.”

The commission also offers grants for individual full-time artists.

Beyond grant-making,

MAC serves as a catalyst for arts development at the local level by fostering networks of local leaders, artists of all disciplines, arts volunteers and patrons. MAC also provides consulting, training and public awareness.

McConnell cautions replacement to health law to take time

BY BRUCE SCHREINER Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The next Congress will begin work immediately next year toward repealing President Barack Obama’s health care law but delay the changes as Republicans try to come up with an alternative, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Saturday.

The Kentucky Republican insisted that some 20 million Americans who have health care through the six-year-old law will not lose coverage, though the likely upheaval in the insurance industry sug-

“This has to be done carefully.

It has to be done in a phased-in way over a period of time.”

Mitch McConnell Senate Majority Leader gests many could.

Asked about the Senate’s timetable to scrap the law, McConnell said: “We’re going to move to it after we go back in the first week in January.”

But during a speech in his hometown of Louisville, the senator cautioned patience from the law’s critics as Republicans create an alternative.

“You can’t just snap your fingers and go from where we are today to where we’re headed,” McConnell told a crowd at the Kentucky Farm Bureau’s annual meeting.

“This has to be done carefully. It has to be done in a phased-in way over a period of time.”

Republicans have been unable to agree on an al-

ternative since the law’s enactment in 2010, but now must produce a replacement if they scrap the law. President-elect Donald Trump says he would like to keep major elements of the law — allowing children to remain on their parents’ plans until age 26 and ensuring companies don’t deny coverage for pre-existing conditions. But it’s unclear how a new version of the law could force insurance companies to provide the latter coverage.

With open enrollment underway, no changes are expected next year for

the more than 10 million people currently covered through HealthCare.gov and state markets that offer subsidized private insurance. An additional estimated 9 million lowincome people covered by Medicaid in states that expanded the program are also protected for now.

McConnell said Saturday that Republicans have an obligation to repeal and replace a law he called a “monstrosity.” He blamed the law for rising co-payments, deductibles and premiums and said it caused “chaos” in the private health insurance

market.

“We have an obligation to the American people to straighten this out,” he said. But he said replacing the law will be challenging “given the fact that it’s been kicking in for six years.”

Meanwhile, McConnell played down prospects for any new trade deals.

Specifically, he said the Trans-Pacific Partnership won’t pass Congress because “politically it’s unsustainable.” Trump’s tough talk on trade has included a threat to pull the United States out of the trade deal.

Pickwick Lake Yoga participants enjoy a restorative resting pose.

Woman inspires via Hatha Yoga

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

PICKWICK, Tenn. — Educating others about their anatomy, one retired pedagogue is encouraging students to take responsibility for their own bodies through the practice of Hatha Yoga.

Held from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays at Pickwick United Methodist Church, Angie Lawrence’s boutique classes are customized for each participant.

“The classes I teach during Pickwick Lake Yoga are not about me. They are about my students and meeting their needs.

I do not do my personal yoga while teaching,” she explained. “I teach and assist. Would you want a brain surgeon working on you while they were doing something for themselves? It’s the same concept.”

Taking charge of her health, the 32-year educator found herself at a crossroads after retiring from the Alcorn County School System in 2010.

“After two failed foot surgeries on the same limb, my back, legs and foot hurt all the time,” said Lawrence as she rolled out yoga mats in anticipation of her next class. “Once retired, I began to look for ways to heal my body and decided to give yoga a try. Unfortunately, I took yoga from someone who taught me to do a lot of dangerous and incorrect things. I did not know this until until I enrolled in the Yoga School of Excellence in Jackson, Tenn. under the instruction of Deborah Perry.”

Discovering that the asanas (poses) were doing more harm than good, the Corinth native had to re-learn all the incorrect teachings she had learned in yoga class. The new discoveries would ultimately lead her down a path she never fathomed.

“I think most retired teachers continue to teach in some way,” said Lawrence. “I had the privilege of being selected to study in India for 30 days as a Fulbright-Hays scholar in 2006. I was one of only six teachers chosen nationwide to be a part of ‘The Fabric of Indian Life’.”

After completing her 200 Yoga Teacher Training, the 1973 Biggersville High School graduate was immediately compelled to learn more.

Enrolling in the 500 hour Yoga Teacher program, she decided to pursue a new goal – to become a Yoga therapist.

“I enrolled in the Healthy Foot Practitioner training with the Restorative Institute,” said Lawrence who has completed

over 150 CEU’s since becoming a yoga therapist.

“I just keep going back to school to learn new techniques. I love yoga props and am constantly experimenting with ways I can make yoga more accessible to my students.”

Working with those who have ailments such as knee arthritis, back pain and multiple sclerosis, the Movement Educator’s classes are geared mostly toward older yogis, but all ages and sizes are welcome.

“I want everyone to feel comfortable and and do what is best for their body,” she said. “I also want them to become active participants in their own healing process.

Thus, taking responsibility for their own healing at some level.”

“I teach the student, not the pose. You may not need what I need. Our bodies are not made the same. A student might not be able to do a pose because of bone-on-bone compression. We cannot change our bones,” she continued. “It is better to be inflexible than to be hypermobile. I try to adapt to my students’ level and physical condition’s while paying attention to the details of the asana and encouraging students to improve their practice.”

The instructor also walks around making individual adjustments and has incorporated myofascial release with body rolling and resistance stretching into her sessions.

The classes also give the unfit a way to regain strength and achieve their overall health goals.

“My therapeutic and alignment-based classes include students from Counce, Tenn.; Pickwick, Tenn.; Iuka; Savannah, Tenn. and Memphis,” said Lawrence as she discussed the diversity of her Pickwick Lake Yoga classes. “My youngest student is 50 and my oldest student is close to 90, but all ages are invited and we make accommodations for everyone.”

“Just like a tailor adjusts clothing to fit an individual’s unique shapes and curves,Yoga Therapy tailors the practice to the individual’s needs, abilities, restrictions, illnesses, and goals,” she continued. “Yoga Therapy is not meant to diagnose and or cure diseases; its aim is to lessen the suffering of the person.”

The yoga practitioner is not your typical yogini and is proud of that fact.

“Being a large woman has made me more approachable,” she revealed.

“All those people out there who don’t exercise would feel much better

coming to class with me than someone extremely svelte.”

In an effort to expand her knowledge, Lawrence is currently experimenting with Kinesiology taping and cupping on herself and family members.

Class attendance tends to wax and wane with life’s demands, but there are typically four to 12 students in each yoga session.

“Most of my students are retired and do a lot of traveling,” said the yogini.

“I have students who live in Memphis and attend when they are in town.”

Pickwick United Methodist Church is proud to house Pickwick Lake Yoga and has even designated a separate room for the classes.

“As The Church we need to be doing all we can to provide wellness programs for our communities. Wellness is such an important factor for all of us and if The Church does not take the lead then who else will? It is our pleasure to have Angie Lawrence offer her yoga classes,” said Pastor Ray Chandler. “It has become very valuable not only to those who participate, but to the whole community as well.”

Echoing his sentiments, yoga student Jackie Lucas of Elks Landing expressed her love for the classes.

“I started in January of this year and from the very first class I knew yoga would be apart of my life forever,” she said.

“I am no longer on any medication for my arthritis which is a blessing to me.”

Iuka resident Diane Sellers appreciates the additional support she’s found on social media.

“Thank you so much for your posts on Facebook, Angie! Besides being a great instructor, you take it a step further by researching each of our issues and sharing helpful

tips,” she said. “You have been a life saver for my husband and I. We truly appreciate the good work you do.”

A graduate of Mississippi College, Angie Lawrence earned her Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Family and Consumer Sciences/ Home Economics in Secondary Education in 1977. She also holds a 1984 Master of Science in Family and Consumer Sciences/Home Economics in Teacher Education degree from the University of Mississippi. Before retirement, she taught health, Design Technology for Fashion and Interiors, and Family and Consumer Science at Kossuth High School for 20 years.

She currently serves as the secretary for Pickwick Republican Women.

The Alcorn County native is the wife of David Lawrence and the mother of Jacob McAnally, Ian McAnally and Lydia McAnally Lambert. Her favorite things are teaching yoga, gardening and being a “GiGi” to her precious grandchildren – Liam Lambert, 4, and Lily Beth Lambert, 11 months.

As a YACEP (Yoga Alliance Continuing Education) provider, the life-long educator also offers workshops for yoga teachers and therapists needing CEU’s.

Those interested in a workshop or in attending a yoga class can contact her at 731-926-0037. Regular yoga classes are $5 per session. One-on-one Yoga Therapy sessions are $45 for a one-hour session if participants come to the instructor, but can be more if she has to travel to them. Private Yoga sessions specialize in reducing and managing acute and chronic pain.

(Pickwick United Methodist Church is located 10575 TN-57 in Counce, Tenn.)

Man’s dream of togetherness results in long family feud DEAR ABBY: I am a happily married man with one problem that doesn’t go away.

I convinced my wife, “Ellen,” to move to Florida so we could be close to my family, but now she doesn’t trust them because of an altercation she had with my mother.

Ellen says Mom made Abigail n e g a t i v e Van Buren c o m m e n t s about her and lied Dear Abby about it.

My intention was for everyone to come together as a family, but now I feel I must decide whether I can be a part of the family.

If I do, my wife feels I am saying it’s OK for my family to hurt her.

If I don’t, I’ll feel I’m missing out on spending time with them.

Ellen no longer wants anything to do with my family and wants them to apologize.

It has been a rough four years being trapped in the middle of this ongoing feud.

My father and I have talked and tried to resolve things to no avail. How can I fix this once and for all? -- TORN UP IN TAMPA DEAR TORN UP: YOU can’t

fix it.

I don’t know what your mom said about your wife, but it must have been a doozy.

Your mother might be able to mend fences, if she were willing -- but she doesn’t appear to be.

Look at it from your wife’s perspective.

She sacrificed a comfortable lifestyle so you could forge a closer relationship with your family. It’s your job to side with your wife.

She has been wronged and made to feel unwelcome.

A licensed family counselor may be able to help all of you patch up the damaged relationship, but only if everyone involved agrees to bury the hatchet.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a faithful reader and Navy wife.

My husband has been deployed for nearly a year, and I’m lucky he’ll be home in time for Christmas.

However, not all military spouses will be as fortunate.

I’m writing to ask a favor.

Deployments are long and can be challenging.

Being separated from your spouse during the holiday season is difficult.

I have done many deployments and have experienced this myself.

Please remind your readers to think about their military friends

and include them in their holiday plans.

If they do, I know it will be appreciated.

Thanks, Abby. -- PROUD NAVY WIFE IN SAN DIEGO DEAR PROUD WIFE: I’m glad to help.

For many years my mother and I had a program, Operation Dear Abby, in which readers could send messages of support (and gifts) to active duty military members who were away from home during holiday time.

Even after it was scaled back from cards and packages to just email messages, more than 35 million of them were sent to our troops.

Sadly, Operation Dear Abby is no longer in existence -- but readers, if you know someone whose family member or spouse is away from home during the holidays serving this country, please see that they are not alone.

It would be a lovely way to repay in some small part what their family member is giving to all of us.

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

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

The ordinary thing before you has a deep truth to it. You’ll find out just what that is -- or at least glimpse it for a pleasurable moment. Your full attention and engagement is the magic key.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you’re looking for it, you’ll find it.

So look for the good stuff, fresh excitement, the sweetness in the middle, the pretty sky and the emotional equivalent of that.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

It will be better to get guidance from an approachable person who can give you the practical steps than from an expert who can dazzle you with science and theory. Because really, this one should be pretty simple.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The puzzle of the day will be best navigated through emotional intelligence and intuition.

Expect other inner voices to pipe up. Tell the voice of reason and your inner critic, “Kindly calm down, friends. I got this.”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It won’t

be easy, and it won’t be hard; it will just be necessary. Don’t show up trying to change things or improve things. Don’t show up ready to make your mark.

Show up ready to work and all will click into place.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s not about finding your joy today, although you certainly may find it along the way. If that happens, it will be a byproduct of your pursuit for a greater understanding and respect for what’s around you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Though you’ll mostly keep your unique opinions and observations to yourself, there is one thing you notice that you absolutely must share; otherwise, everyone would miss out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You’ll get the sneaking suspicion that you’re the central oppressed figure in a repetitive, drawn-out drama. That’s your signal to decentralize yourself.

Make it about someone else.

Suddenly, you’ll see it differently.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Just because a crisis is not material doesn’t make it any less real. Existential crisis is every bit as dangerous. You’ll avoid it by reminding yourself of your purpose often throughout the day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What would happen if you met that (probably very difficult and unreasonable) person halfway? Today, believe it or not, the outcome will be better than fully getting your own way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You’ll earn the respect of those around you, not because you’re so great at what you do but because you have the heart to keep going forward even when there’s no clear sign that you’ll be successful.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

If you make a mistake, you’ll bounce back from it, but with a little effort on the front end, you can avoid the pitfall in the first place. Do your research. Find your mentor. There are many who would love to help you.

The 2016 Alcorn Central volleyball team recently won its second consecutive division title and posted a 16-game winning streak along the way.

Alcorn Central Volleyball: Rise To a Title

BY KENT MOHUNDRO Sports Editor kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

How does a 3A school known traditionally for basketball become a volleyball powerhouse in just four short years?

Just over four years ago, Alcorn Central dropped their slow-pitch softball program and brought in a volleyball program for the first time in school history. This is nothing new: schools drop one sport for another more often than you might realize.

But the irony of this story is the fast track Central has

taken to achieve remarkable success in such a short time.

“We started the volleyball program here four years ago with girls who had never played the game before,” said head coach Eric lancaster.

“Our first team won only one game, but we lost to some really talented teams.

“It was tough at first. I knew our girls would be pretty good because they were really good athletes and extremely competitive,” he continued.

“Most of the girls on the team now were in the seventh- and eighth-grade when we started the program.”

Every coach has inclinations as to how their teams will fare on a yearly basis and Lancaster explains what he was thinking in the very beginning.

“The thing I liked most about our players is their versatility,” he said. “They can play multiple positions and roles. We have been led by a group of girls that have been the core of this team since its inception.”

Olivia Wilson and Brianna Barnes have started since eighth-grade, while Malory Wigginton, Mary Fran Robbins and Julianna Potts have

been key starters for three years. Madison Burnett and Madison Cornelius have started the past two years, and ninth-graders Lauren Young and Kaylee Wigginton joined as starters this past year.

By the way, the Lady Bears won 16 consecutive games this season before falling to St. Andrews in the second round of the state playoffs, finishing a sparkling 21-7.

They put together a 12-14 record in 2015, but still won their first division title in their third year of existance.

Saiz has 20 points, 16 rebounds in Ole Miss victory The Associated Press

OXFORD — Mississippi coach Andy Kennedy leaned into the microphone at his postgame press conference, flashed a smile and whispered softly.

“Coaches aren’t supposed to say this out loud, especially on a game this early in the season, but this was a must win for us,” said Kennedy, after his Rebels defeated Memphis 8577 on Saturday.

Sebastian Saiz proved to be the decisive factor, scoring 20 points and grabbing 16 rebounds. The Rebels made good use of the free-throw

line, finishing 28 of 33 (85 percent), including 17 consecutive conversions in the final eight minutes.

Deandre Burnett scored 19 points and Cullen Neal added 12 for the Rebels (6-2), who used a 20-3 run in the second half to wipe out a 66-61 deficit.

“We played hard and I was proud of the effort,” Memphis coach Tubby Smith said. “We had that one stretch where we just blew up. It began when we fouled a 3-point shooter and you can’t do that. We’ve got to play smarter, but Ole Miss made plays when they had to.

Credit them.”

Memphis (6-2) was led by K. J. Lawson with 17 points, while Markel Crawford and Jeremiah Martin had 16 and 14 points, respectively. The Tigers used a 24-5 surge early in the second half to build a 62-57 lead with 9:50 left, but could not match Ole Miss in the final eight minutes.

Ole Miss was 25 of 58 (43 percent) from the field, while Memphis finished 26 of 61 (43 percent). The Tigers were 19 of 29 (66 percent) from the line and outrebounded Ole Miss 38-37, led by Dedric Lawson and Crawford with six apiece.

Role Player Kennedy has a habit of tinkering with starting lineups in nonconference games and inserted Neal after the opening six minutes. The transfer guard responded strongly with 12 points, three assists and a steal. His 3-point shot capped the decisive 20-3 burst, giving the Rebels an insurmountable 81-69 lead with 3:01 remaining.

No. 1 Alabama romps past Florida in SEC title game The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Alabama showed off all its weapons in the Southeastern Conference championship game.

Now, the Crimson Tide can expect a return trip to Atlanta for the College Football Playoff.

The nation’s No. 1 team scored off a blocked punt and an interception return Saturday before wearing down No. 15 Florida in the second half with a dominant running game.

The result was a 54-16 rout that positioned Alabama to go for its second straight national title and its fifth crown in the last nine years under coach Nick Saban.

Next up: a likely semifinal game at the Georgia Dome on

Dec. 31.

The Crimson Tide (13-0, No. 1 CFP) bolted to a 16-9 lead in the first quarter, despite being held to minus-7 yards and no first downs. They scored one touchdown off a blocked punt, another off an interception return. A field goal was set up by another pick — one of three thrown by Florida quarterback Austin Appleby in the first half.

The Tide led 33-16 at halftime — the most points ever scored in the first two quarters of an SEC title game — and iced the victory with scoring drives of 98 and 91 yards, sparked by a goal-line stand that finished off the last gasp by the Gators (8-4, No. 15 CFP) A 24-point underdog, Florida

had a few shining moments against the nation’s only unbeaten Power Five team. The Gators marched the length of the field on the opening possession, the first touchdown given up by the Tide in more than 17 quarters. They had another long TD drive near the end of the first half to give themselves a glimmer of hope.

After Alabama went threeand-out to start the second half, Florida drove to the Crimson Tide 1. Jordan Scarlett attempted to leap over the line on thirdand-goal, but he never even got off the ground; Rashaan Evans blew by his blocker and slammed the running back for a 1-yard loss. Appleby threw incomplete in the back of the end

zone on fourth down, giving the Tide all the momentum.

Damien Harris broke off a 23-yard run, Jalen Hurts completed a 31-yard pass to ArDarius Stewart on third-and-19, and bruising Bo Scarbrough finished things off with a 34-yard run and a 2-yard touchdown.

The Tide went nearly as far on its next possession, driving from its own 9 for another touchdown that sent most of the Florida fans heading for the exit early in the fourth quarter.

Scarbrough carried it six times, including a 1-yard plunge into the end zone.

Scoreboard

TITLE CONTINUED FROM 10A

“We did go win the division title last year at 12-14 but I thought we underachieved,” Lancaster said.

“Injuries and inconsistent play kept us from having a better season.”

Getting back to the team that just finished with 21 wins and their second straight division championship, Lancaster beams when he thinks of what lies ahead next season.

“Wilson is a very powerful hitter for us. She plays all facets of the game well.

Barnes is our glue. She’s one of our setters, middle hitters and middle blockers. She just does it all.

Robbins owns the net and is a quick jumper and instinctive player at the net. Wigginton is a freak and just does things on the floor that amaze me sometimes. She was playing her best at the end of the season,” he said.

ACHS attended a summer camp in Alabama last summer, and Lancaster said he believes that made a huge difference over the 2015 squad that underachieved.

“Coach Haylei Bell and I changed our offense this year to a 6-2. We worked on it at camp, and it took a while to get used to, but the girls caught on. We also had the good fortune of having coach Ashley Connolly come up a few days a week and work with us. She’s been great for the girls,” he said.

Connolly was a college volleyball player and has coached high school and club teams. According to Lancaster, she’s the kind of person who can help take a team to the next level.

“We won some games early this past season that showed we could beat teams we had never beaten before. We played in a tournament in Arkansas in August where we played really bad, and I was worried about our confidence,” Lancaster said. “Then we started the winning streak at Ripley where we played somewhat average. We won the first set and lost the next, and their student section started giving us a hard time.”

Big mistake.

“Our girls play better when they get angry, and we proceeded to win the final two sets in convining fashion. From there we didn’t lose another game in almost two months.

I thinks that’s when our girls finally learned how

Basketball National Basketball Association

to win,” Lancaster said.

The Lady Bears rolled through division after the Ripley match and easily won their first-round playoff game at home.

Then came St. Andrews.

“That St. Andrews loss was tough,” Lancaster said. “I knew we had the better team on the floor and the scores were close.

But we just never got over the hump that day.

I know this team will remain hungry for more championships and a chance to get to Jackson next season.”

Lancaster feels a special bond with the girls and they respond in kind.

They feed off each other.

“I love these girls,” he said. “We started this program together, and we’ve had good times and rough times. I’ve never been more proud of a team than I am this group. I’ve been extremely blessed to be a part of this program, and I can’t wait to get back to work in June.”

ACHS returns everyone next year and will inherit a few younger girls that drove the junior varsity team to a 14-2 record this past season.

Wilson has been the MVP of Division 1 for the past two years and was ranked third in the state with 120 aces and was also 13th in kills with 110. Robbins was ranked seventh with 87 aces and added 87 kills to rank 18th in the state. She also led the team with 31 blocks.

Wigginton was ranked 10th in assists with 97, while Barnes and Cornelius were right behind her with 77 and 69 respectively. The Lady Bears had six players this season who ranked in the top 30 in the state in aces, and four were ranked in the top 25 in kills.

An amazing four Lady Bears were ranked top 17 in assists.

Barnes and Robbins were named first-team All-Division for the second consecutive year, while Burnett joined them on the first team.

Potts, Cornelius and Young all made second team.

Wislon was again the Division MVP, and Wigginton was named setter of the year.

By losing no one and picking up more talented former JV players, the future certainly looks bright for Alcorn Central.

SAIZ CONTINUED FROM 10A

ited to eight points and six rebounds in 19 minutes.

The Tigers still managed to build a five-point lead heading into the final eight minutes despite extended foul trouble.

Ole Miss: After a blowout home loss to Middle Tennessee State and trailing late in the second half to Memphis, the Rebels showed mental toughness and play-making ability with the late rally. Saiz consistently provided big plays in the second half on both ends of the floor.

No. 6 Mississippi State rallies to top Iowa State in overtime The Associated Press

43-26 at halftime.

But the Bulldogs cut it to 70-68 with 36 seconds left on William’s 3, and Johnson’s contested 3 from the elbow gave them a chance to steal a big win on the road.

“That what great players do. They want to be in that moment and have the opportunity,” Mississippi State coach Vic Schaefer said. “After that...our kids practice really hard.

Anything that goes longer than 40 minutes, we’re kind of built for.”

Seanna Johnson had 21 points with eight rebounds for Iowa State.

Jadda Buckley added 19 points and 11 assists. The Cyclones were 10 of 15 from 3-point range, but they also had 18 turnovers.

“I’m not upset with anyone. I know they played as hard as they could,” Iowa State coach Bill Fennelly said. “We ran out of gas down the stretch.”

AMES, Iowa — No. 6 Mississippi State found itself five minutes away from its first loss — and a big one at that.

The Bulldogs showed their character down the stretch, surviving a tough road environment to stay unbeaten.

Morgan William scored 24 points, Victoria Vivians had 16 and Mississippi State overcame a 17-point deficit to beat Iowa State 85-81 in overtime Saturday.

Roshunda Johnson’s 3-pointer with 11 seconds left in the fourth quarter forced overtime for the Bulldogs (8-0), who trailed by 11 with 4:49 left.

“We still have work to do,” William said. “We came out flat, but most important was (that) we fought through adversity.”

Mississippi State controlled the overtime, but it took four free throws by William with the final 15 seconds to seal the win.

The underdog Cyclones (5-1) played like the favorites for much of regulation, outscoring Mississippi State 28-13 in the second quarter to go up

Mississippi State: Schaefer might regret scheduling eight consecutive games away from Starkville for a team with the Final Four in its sights.

half at least the Tide didn’t look quite as a dominant as it did leading up to the SEC championship game. Of course, Alabama dominated the second half.

Florida: The Gators must address their offensive woes after another shaky perfor-

mance, which included those three backbreaking interceptions in the first half. There’s no reason for a team with Florida’s resources, recruiting base and history to wind up with a unit that ranked No. 114 nationally in total yards before playing the

The Big Picture

This was the fourth game of that stretch, and Mississippi State looked little like the team that entered play 35-8 since the start of last season — until the final 15 minutes. That’s when the Bulldogs, aided by a cold stretch from Iowa State, took control.

“We looked like we still had one foot left stuck in Hawaii,” Schaefer said, referencing last week’s successful trip to the Rainbow Wahine Classic in Honolulu.

Iowa State: The Cyclones had their first losing season since 2003 last season. If they keep playing like this, they might push for an upper-division Big 12 finish. Iowa State created open shots with excellent ball movement, overcame its lack of size by attacking the defensive glass and made the most of their forced turnovers. Fennelly’s decision to milk the clock rather than attack late ruined his team’s offensive flow.

Poll Implications Mississippi State never reached as high as sixth until this week. Voters know that playing in

Ames is never easy, so the Bulldogs could end up staying where they are.

Pivotal Moments?

Not So Much Buckley drilled 3s from the left elbow to back-toback possessions to put the Cyclones ahead 3922, and Bridget Carleton added another 3 with 6:34 left that put Iowa State on top 64-53. All three seemed to bury the Bulldogs. But they shot 77 percent in the fourth quarter, and Seanna Johnson’s missed free throw with 21 seconds left kept the deficit at 3.

He Said It “That whole first half, they just stuck it down our throat and made us like it,” Schaefer said

Up Next Mississippi State plays at Southern Miss on Dec. 10. The Golden Eagles entered Saturday at 6-1 — but they haven’t played anyone nearly as talented as the Bulldogs.

Iowa State won’t get much time to recover from this loss. The Cyclones host New Orleans on Sunday.

ALABAMA CONTINUED FROM 10A

touchdown to finish the second-most point ever scored against the Gators, topped only by Nebraska’s 62-24 victory for the national title in the 1996 Fiesta Bowl.

The Takeaway Alabama: The offense struggled in the first half against Florida’s highly ranked defense, and the defense surrendered a couple of long scoring drives. It may be a bit of nitpicking, but for one

Crimson Tide.

Up Next Alabama: Heads to the College Football Playoff for the third year in a row. The Tide will probably meet the No. 4-ranked team in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl on

New Year’s Eve. Florida: The Gators could still wind up with a major bowl bid as the SEC’s representative at the Sugar Bowl.

But two straight ugly losses will likely keep the Gators closer to home at either the Citrus or Outback.

No. 11 UCLA upsets top-ranked Kentucky The Associated Press

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Only briefly did UCLA appear vulnerable against top-ranked Kentucky in its usual charged environment that has made the Wildcats one of the hardest teams to beat at home.

Each time the 11th-ranked Bruins coolly responded with a timely basket or rebound, a consistent combination that grabbed momentum and eventually the game from the Wildcats.

Isaac Hamilton scored 19 points, T.J. Leaf had 17 with 13 rebounds and UCLA shot 53 percent to beat Kentucky 97-92 on Saturday, its second upset of the top-ranked Wildcats in as many years.

More impressively, the Bruins did it in their first-ever visit to storied Rupp Arena — where the Wildcats had won 42 straight coming in and 89 percent overall — and never flinched. Just as they did in beating Kentucky exactly one year ago at Pauley Pavilion.

“I don’t think there was any-

thing about them today that was a feeling-out process,” said UCLA coach Steve Alford, whose team regained the lead for good late in the first half. “We talk about, ‘Don’t go in and jab around the ring to see if you belong. You’re 8-0. You’re playing well. Trust that you belong.’ That was the key thing that guys did from the tip.”

The Bruins (9-0), who entered as the nation’s third-ranked scoring team, matched their season scoring average to win this showdown of college basketball’s winningest schools. Kentucky (7-1) cut a 14-point second-half deficit to 95-92 on Derek Willis’ 3-pointer with 8.3 seconds remaining but Bryce Alford’s two free throws with 7.4 left sealed the gutty victory.

Besides hitting 35 of 66 from the field, UCLA outrebounded Kentucky 41-38 and limited the Wildcats to 41 percent shooting.

It was the most points scored against a Kentucky team coached

by John Calipari, who credited the Bruins for controlling the

tempo against his talented freshmen.

“This is a lesson for us,” said Calipari, whose team had posted three consecutive 100-point efforts coming in. “We didn’t have the energy. I had to call a timeout a minute into the game. I mean, just wasn’t the same team. There are great lessons out of this. I wish we would have come back and won. ... But sometimes you need to get hit on the chin, especially at home.”

Hamilton and Leaf led another balanced offensive performance that featured 14 points by Lonzo Ball, Alford and Thomas Welsh, and 13 by Aaron Holiday.

Malik Monk had 24 points and De’Aaron Fox added 20 for Kentucky, which fell to 124-5 at Rupp under Calipari.

The Big Picture UCLA: The key point for the Bruins came seconds before halftime when Ball’s 3-pointer provided a 49-45 lead to cap a 58 percent shooting half. “I had the shot

and I took it,” said the freshman, who finished just 2 of 8 from long range and 5 of 12 overall. “Coach Alford says to never hesitate. I wasn’t hitting the whole game, but in the big moments I’m going to come through. I put it up and it went in. It was a good shot and a good way to go into halftime.”

The Bruins followed with a 9-2 run to open the second half for a 58-47 lead and kept their poise throughout with another teamwide effort that included 18 assists, six off their season average.

Kentucky: The Wildcats overcame a 3-of-9 start to reach 50 percent from the field in the first half before a 1-of-8 spell to close the opening 20 minutes. They never got it going in the second half despite making 5 of 13 from long range. What bothered them most were the defensive breakdowns that allowed UCLA to get good looks.

“We weren’t focused like we usually are,” Monk said. “We have to be focused and ready to play day in and day out. If not,

we’ll get beat just like this.”

Beating No. 1s This was UCLA’s 12th victory over a No. 1 team, one behind alltime leader North Carolina.

Poll Implications The Bruins’ second straight win over Kentucky figures to move them into the Top 10. Kentucky should tumble a few spots, though not many.

Maybe Next Time Kentucky didn’t hold a morning shootaround because of the midday start and Calipari wondered if he should have after looking at the stat sheet.

“I just felt maybe they were mature enough to do this,” he said.

“I’m learning about this team.”

Up Next UCLA: Hosts Michigan on Dec. 10 in the first meeting between the schools since 2011. The Bruins lead the series 11-5 but have lost the last two in the series.

Mayfield, Oklahoma top Oklahoma St. to win Big 12 The Associated Press

NORMAN, Okla. — With his best receiver sidelined, Baker Mayfield still boosted his Heisman Trophy resume.

Mayfield passed for 288 yards and three touchdowns, and No. 7 Oklahoma defeated No. 11 Oklahoma State 38-20 on Saturday in a matchup that decided the Big 12 champion and likely guaranteed the Sooners a trip to the Sugar Bowl.

Mayfield performed well throughout, despite finishing the game without Biletnikoff Award finalist Dede Westbrook.

The speedster caught four passes for 111 yards before being knocked out of the game in the second quarter on a crushing hit

by Oklahoma State safety Jordan Sterns. Mayfield threw two touchdown passes after Westbrook left the game, and the offense didn’t miss a beat, finishing with 629 yards.

“He was just fantastic, he was

just exactly what he needed to be,” Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said of Mayfield. “He gave our guys chances to make plays, he handled the ball great himself, had a few key runs for us, threw the ball. The guy’s really, really talented. To be able to do what he did, there’s not many guys who could do what he did today.”

Mayfield finished fourth in the Heisman balloting last year, but he didn’t get an invitation to New York for the ceremony. He wants to go this year, and he wants Westbrook to get an invitation, too.

After the game, Mayfield wore a pin from the school with both his and Westbrook’s names on it. Mayfield crossed out his own name with a marker to make sure Westbrook wasn’t forgotten.

“Dede is the best player in the country,” Mayfield said. “I still want to hold Dede’s hand all the way to New York.”

E S AL

PEN

D IN

Mayfield should be a Heisman front-runner heading into next season, too. He said after the game that he plans to return for his senior season.

“Coming back, be here for another year,” he said. “Opportunity for a three-peat (Big 12). The ultimate goal is why I came here — to win a national title.”

Samaje Perine rambled for 239 yards on a career-high 37 carries and Joe Mixon caught a touchdown pass and busted a 79-yard touchdown run for the Sooners (10-2, 9-0 Big 12, No. 9 College Football Playoff).

It was the second straight time the teams met in the regularseason finale to determine the conference champion. Oklahoma beat the Cowboys 58-23 last season.

In this year’s showdown, Mason Rudolph completed just 11 of 25 passes for 186 yards for Oklahoma State (9-3, 7-2, No. 10 CFP). His top target for the sea-

son, James Washington, caught just two passes for 50 yards on eight targets.

“Just a rough day,” Rudolph said. “I’ll take all the responsibility for the lack of production, especially in the second half. Obviously, it needed to be better.”

The Takeaway Oklahoma State: It was an especially bitter defeat for the Cowboys, who have become so close to turning the tide against their biggest rival. The Cowboys, who last won the Big 12 in 2011, fell to 2-10 against the Sooners under coach Mike Gundy. Even with Westbrook out and Perine being knocked out briefly after a helmet-to-helmet hit, the Cowboys couldn’t keep the momentum.

“They made too many big plays,” Sterns said. “That’s a great football team with big playmakers.”

Oklahoma: The Sooners added a second straight win over a

highly ranked opponent, but it likely wasn’t enough to get them into the College Football playoff for the second straight year.

“Probably, realistically, more needed to happen last week to give ourselves a better opportunity, but that’s past,” Stoops said.

“Whatever they’re going to decide, they’ll decide.”

Poll Implications Oklahoma State: Likely won’t fall too far with a road loss against a Top 10 team , especially with so many other top teams playing each other.

Oklahoma: Not much space to move up. The Sooners were already ahead of Colorado, which lost to Washington on Friday.

Up Next Oklahoma State: Bowl game to be determined.

Oklahoma: The Sugar Bowl on Jan. 2 unless the Sooners make the College Football Playoff.

Union officer stayed in Duncan House

BY TOM PARSON NPS Ranger

here are four historic homes in downtown Corinth, homes which were here during the dark days of the Civil War. We know plenty about the generals or “big bugs” as Tom Pvt. Sam Parson Watkins called Park Ranger them, but what about the others, the lower ranking officers who stayed in these famous homes?

Who were these guys?

Junior officers mostly; lieutenants, captains, and majors who served on the staff of someone grander, someone who had more gold stars and braids on his uniform. Of course there were enlisted men as well who ran errands or served as guards for the big men, but they rarely actually resided in the house.

Today’s story is about one of the those junior officers; just another unknown guy, but nevertheless a man who stayed in our town and who nearly rose to that exalted rank of general. Today’s story is about Noel Byron Howard.

Noel was born in 1838 in Fairfax, Vermont. His father was a farmer but Noel decided early in life he would break away and strike out in another direction. It was just as well, he was a rather thin lad and didn’t exactly fit the mold of a farmhand.

He attended local schools and entered Norwich University in 1856.

Due to financial problems he had to drop out prior to graduation so he took up a teaching position to raise some cash.

He taught in Burlington for a bit and then took a position at a military school in North Carolina.

As the war clouds began to gather Noel knew he had to leave the South. In early 1861 he packed his bags and moved to Lyons (Clinton), Iowa where his folks had recently relocated.

Noel was teaching school in Lyons when the war began and he enlisted in the Clinton County Guards, soon to be Company I of the 2nd Iowa Infantry. The

T

The Duncan House as it appeared in 1886. bookish twenty-two yearold was elected to the position of 1st Lieutenant of his company. In the officer ranks this was just one short step away from the very bottom of the pile.

Noel had some familiar faces in the company; aside from nearly every other young man in Lyons, there were his brothers George and Moses and his cousin Serba.

As an officer it was his job to help train his company for battle.

The 2nd Iowa did well at the fighting at Fort Donelson, TN and then moved on to a fine camp at Pittsburg Landing on the Tennessee River. On April 1, 1862, Noel was promoted to captain, which made him the commander of his company; five days later the Confederates attacked the Union camps near Shiloh Church.

The regiment fought on the far right of the “Sunken Road” on the first day, and on the following morning they were in the Peach Orchard. (Their monument is right at Tour Stop #3). The next stop for the regiment of Hawkeyes was here for the Siege of Corinth and when the Union occupation began they were moved off to Rienzi for outpost duty.

The 2nd Iowa smelled the smoke of battle once again when Van Dorn’s Army of West Tennessee attacked the city on October 3rd. The regiment was in the thick of it at the White House (on modern Wenasoga Road) and again the following day at Battery Powell (3rd & Taylor Streets).

The commanding officer, Col. James Baker was mortally wounded early

in the fight, followed

by Lt. Col. Noah Mills.

Major James Weaver stepped up to command the regiment. Out of 346 men in the fight, the regiment suffered 108 casualties. Capt. Noel Howard was slightly wounded but not enough to take him out of the fight.

With the loss of the two senior officers in the regiment it was necessary to fill the empty spots with a few promotions. On October 13, 1862, just nine days after the battle, Noel was promoted to major.

General Rosecrans was transferred after the Battle of Corinth, and sent to command the Army of the Cumberland in Middle Tennessee. His replacement in Corinth was Brig. Gen. Grenville M. Dodge. Like any other senior officer, Dodge assembled a staff to handle all the pesky details that went with being a general.

Along with several aides-de-camp, there was the Adjutant-General who was more like a military secretary who helped the commander with correspondence, orders, and operations.

Then there was the Quartermaster-General who oversaw supply and transportation issues.

The Inspector-General was responsible for efficiency and discipline.

He was backed up by the Provost Marshall’s office (the military police force) and the Judge Advocate, who was the staff lawyer and took care of courtsmartial and other legal matters. Major Howard was appointed as Dodge’s Judge Advocate.

Staff duty meant Noel had to leave the regiment and move his quarters closer to the garrison

commander. Dodge was staying in William Simonton’s Verandah House on Jackson St., so our man moved into the recently vacated Duncan House across the street on Bunch. It had been Rosecrans’ HQ during the battle, and back during the Siege of Corinth it had been the quarters of the Confederate commander, Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard.

On a warm December afternoon Capt. John Duckworth, also of the 2nd Iowa, took a stroll around Corinth. He was writing a letter to a friend and occasionally stopped to describe the sights. “We are now on Main Street – we will turn southward [onto Fillmore]. The first house on the right is Col. Chetlain’s Head Qrs that on the opposite side of the street [Jackson] is now the Telegraph office. It was Beauregard’s headquarters. Look over upon the opposite side of the next street to our right is a tasteful building. See its plain columns and its miniature towers. That was the Head Qrs of Gen. Halleck, subsequently of Gen. E.O.C. Ord, and at present of Gen. G.M. Dodge.”

The house where Col. Chetlain was staying was the Allen House, later known as the Borroum Home. His description places the Duncan House on the NW corner of Bunch and Jackson which was correct in 1862; it was not moved to its present location on Polk Street until the 1920’s. The final building he describes is, of course, the Verandah House.

So Major Howard moved into the Duncan House which was dou-

Maj. Noel B. Howard bling as the telegraph office. He was, by all accounts, quite capable in his position of Judge Advocate and there is a photo of him posed with Dodge and the rest of the staff in the yard of the Verandah House.

In August of 1863 the 2nd Iowa was transferred away from Corinth, never to return. Howard lost his cushy staff job as the regiment was posted first in La Grange, TN and then over in Pulaski. In the spring of ‘64 they were with Sherman as he set out to take Atlanta, and Noel was in command of the regiment: Col. Weaver had left the service in the fall, leaving Noel as the senior man in the unit. Befitting to his new status he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel.

Though he was a veteran, Noel hardly fit the image one expected of a regimental commander.

A comrade took a stab at describing him: “Colonel Howard is a small palefaced man, with a weakly voice, and weighing not more than one hundred and fifteen or twenty pounds.

A stranger would judge that he had little capacity for physical endurance; but he is as hardy as a knot; is quiet and unpretending in his manner, and quick in his movements.

His countenance indicates much energy

and intelligence. He is a model soldier.”

On the 22nd of July, 1864, “while heroically performing his duty”, Howard took a painful wound to the thigh and took several weeks to recuperate. In November the 2nd and 3rd Iowa Infantry regiments, both sadly depleted, were consolidated into one regiment and Howard was commissioned as colonel in command of the new unit. In the closing weeks of the war he commanded a brigade, and promotion to brigadier general would have certainly been his if the war had not ended.

He became a court clerk when he returned to civilian life, married the fair Elizabeth McClelland and had a son. His health began to deteriorate and he moved to Palatka, Florida in a bid to recover his strength. It was not to be. He died of pneumonia and was buried in Lyons, Iowa.

So what can we take from the story of Noel Howard? Just the typical story of a skinny little weakling… who just happened to be a battletested leader, a veteran of a score of battlefields, a man who was twice wounded and received four promotions. And a fine lawyer to boot. He may not have been in Corinth long, but we were lucky to have had him while it lasted.

‘Hot Sauce Nation’ shares love of spicy food to all readers

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

All the things you love will be on your table this holiday.

Steaming mashed potatoes with a dollop of butter. Turkey or ham, fresh from the oven. Green bean casserole, waiting for the toasted onions. Everything you love, piping hot and, with “Hot Sauce Nation” by Denver Nicks, you can turn up the heat even more.

Picture in your mind the first time someone ate a chili.

Denver Nicks imagines it was a cave-teenager who ate the berry, perhaps figuring that if birds could consume chilies, they were safe for anyone to eat.

Red-faced, eyes watering, mouth afire, he must’ve turned to his cave-teen buddy who, of course, couldn’t wait to eat one, too.

Truly, we love our hot stuff; its sales outdo that of every other condiment these days.

We’ve loved it at least since 6000 BCE, which is when chili bits were left

If you crave a taste that nearly melts your teeth, “Hot Sauce Nation” will further ignite your interest. behind in a grave. We’ve loved it since Columbus brought chilies to the Old World, thinking they were odd-tasting pepper. We’ve loved it since a bloodthirsty conquistador brought chili plants to the America’s southwest in the late 1590s, and Africans brought seeds with them on the Middle Passage.

Chilies are measured by the Scoville Heat Unit (SHU), a test created more than a century ago.

A regular garden-variety green pepper rates a rather boring 0 SHU. Tabasco is 5,000 SHU. Capsaicin gets an incinerating 16,000,000 SHU but milder heats are compelling; we can’t get enough of that pain, says

Nicks, in part because its burn releases dopamine and can create a thrilling hot-knife illusion for the tongue. Chilies, he says, can also clear the sinuses and bring on a kind of high. Hot-cha-cha.

Acquired taste or not, Nicks says that our North American passion for heat is growing.

The popularity of Mexican, Indian, and Chinese food, although our versions are “a kind of imitation cuisine,” helps increase the trend toward hot, spicy foods in restaurants and snack foods.

The number of nearcombustible consumables is increasing, and on a spicy road-trip, Nicks found that regional preferences just feed the need.

“Delicious, healthy…” he says about hot sauce. “… how’s that for a miracle food?”

Everywhere you go these days, it seems, you can find food that burns your tongue and makes your hands fan. But why now? In “Hot Sauce Nation,” you’ll see.

Spicy food, as author Denver Nicks shows, is

addicting and he’s got the science to prove it. He’s also got the culinary history, taking us on a roundthe-world tour to show how we’ve gone from blah to blasting our palates with flames.

Readers who love hot-and-spicy will find themselves wishing they’d been along with Nicks on his road trips; he tried the hottest chilies, spiciest sauces, and took the biggest challenges, and his mouth- (and eye-) watering descriptions makes us want that, too.

Alas, there are no recipes inside this book but that won’t matter to foodies or fans of flaming food.

If you crave a taste that nearly melts your teeth, “Hot Sauce Nation” will further ignite your interest.

And since having your hot sauce with fats increases its health benefits, you’ll want to add “Butter: A Rich History” by Elaine Khosrova to your cart. In this book, you’ll learn the history of that which goes on toast and in tarts; how butter is made around the

world; how it’s eaten; and its importance to many cultures. Bonus: recipes, so you can enjoy a little

extra butter in your meal.

Neil Diamond to celebrate career with world tour Associated Press

NEW YORK — Neil Diamond took “Song Sung Blue” to the top of the charts, and now he promises to leave “no song unsung” when he takes the stage next year for a world tour.

The 75-year-old singersongwriter promises to play the highlights of his discography on his upcoming “50 Year Anniversary World Tour” — including songs he wrote for the 1960s TV rock band The Monkees.

“Especially stuff from The Monkees,” Diamond told The Associated Press before taking the stage at the annual lighting of the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center on Wednesday night. Diamond wrote several songs for the band, including “I’m a Believer,” which has sold more than 10 million copies.

The first leg of the tour

kicks off in Fresno, California, on April 7, and goes through August, including a stop in New York in June. Other stops include Atlanta, Dallas and Los Angeles.

“We play all over the United States, North America, and then we will find other places to go,” he said.

The Grammy winner’s hits also include “Cracklin’ Rosie,” ‘‘Sweet Caroline” and “Love on the Rocks.”

He has sold over 125 million albums and has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Diamond said he feels energized when he performs for his fans. “People have been loyal and listening to you for years, so you just want to give them everything. Let it all wash over them, and make sure everybody has a great time.”

Streaming gets easier as NFL comes to CBS All Access

BY TALI ARBEL AP Technology Writer

NEW YORK — CBS says NFL games are coming to its CBS All Access subscription service, making it a little easier for “cord cutters” to watch football without a pricey cable subscription.

The ability to easily watch live sports is one of most important reasons people pay for traditional cable bundles. NFL games are already streamed live , but in many cases still require a satellite or cable TV subscription.

Games aired on CBS will be available for streaming on tablets, to TVs and on cbs.com starting Sunday, if customers live in one of the 150 mar-

kets where the CBS All Access app comes with a live CBS feed. The games aren’t available on CBS’ phone app, as those mobile rights are exclusive to Verizon.

The multiyear deal includes regular, preseason and postseason games shown on CBS. Thursday night games will become available next year — CBS’ allotment is finished for this season — and so will the Super Bowl when CBS has it again in 2019.

CBS All Access costs $6 a month, or $10 for a version with fewer ads. It also has episodes of CBS shows, some classic TV like “Cheers” and “Frasier,” and a handful of original shows.

“Man Down” carries a poignant message about American veterans’ mental health needs, but you may give up on the movie before it gets there. Nothing is clear until the film’s final moments, which hit with a gut punch just before the credits roll.

Until then, the story is told through disjointed flashbacks that make it hard to know what’s going on and who to root for.

Director Dito Montiel bounces between boot camp, active duty in Afghanistan and life in post-apocalyptic America, with star Shia LaBeouf’s haircut and beard scruff the only real indicator of where we are in time.

LaBeouf’s performance is powerful, maybe his best to date, but it’s unduly burdened by an erratic story structure that doesn’t engender empathy for

New Orleans May festival offers stars aplenty

his character.

He plays Gabe, a Marine who enlisted with his lifelong best friend, Devin (Jai Courtney).

When we first see the two men, they’re dirty and bearded, not in uniform, brandishing guns in a bombed-out city as they desperately look for Gabe’s son.

Gabe carries a worn picture in his pocket of his wife, Natalie (Kate Mara), and their towheaded little boy, Jonathan (Charlie Shotwell, heartbreaking in the final scenes).

Suddenly, uniformed, clean-shaven Gabe is in an office being questioned by a military counselor (Gary Oldman, disappointingly flat).

The counselor is asking about “the incident,” and Gabe is stoic.

Then it’s basic training at Camp Lejeune, where Gabe and Devin are new recruits being toughened up by an unrelenting drill sergeant.

Natalie sweetly shaves Gabe’s head as he pre-

pares to ship out to Afghanistan.

Now, Gabe and Devin are back from the war, bearded and dirty, wandering dystopian streets and threatening a homeless man as they look for Gabe’s family.

Now, clean-shaven Gabe is driving his son to school as they playfully decide to use the military term “man down” as secret code for “I love you.”

He promises to send letters from Afghanistan.

Now, stoic Gabe drops a reluctant tear while talking to the military counselor.

The meandering structure creates a little too much mystery for the audience to know where to place its allegiances. Did the Marines have something to do with the disappearance of Gabe’s son, so Gabe and Devin have gone rogue?

Or did Gabe harm his son, and that’s why he’s being questioned by a military counselor? That distinction is key if we

NEW ORLEANS — Some of the biggest names in country music will headline the 2017 Bayou Country Superfest, which moves from Louisiana’s capital to the Superdome in New Orleans for its eighth year.

Organizers on Thursday unveiled the lineup, which features Miranda Lambert, Brooks & Dunn, Rascal Flatts, Brett Eldredge, Jon Pardi and Chris Lane on Saturday, May 27, and Blake Shelton, Thomas Rhett, Hank Williams Jr., Old Dominion, Dan + Shay and Maddie & Tae on Sunday, May 28.

The three-day festival, held over the Memorial Day holiday, includes a free, kick-off celebration on Friday, May 26 to be held at Champions Square, outside the MercedesBenz Superdome. It features Easton Corbin, Eric Paslay and Dylan Scott.

Quint Davis, the festival’s producer, said they’re looking to reinvent the festival since it’s moved from LSU’s outdoor Tiger Stadium to inside the air-conditioned Superdome.

“We wanted to make it bigger, make it new, make it more special,” Davis said. “In air-conditioned comfort, with no possibility of rain, the Bayou Country Superfest party will rock harder than ever.”

As a result, there are three headliners on each night of the festival and a total of six acts each night, he said.

“This lineup is a great example of having a bigger, broader roster of talent that appeals to everyone,” he said.

“We’ve got everything a fan can hope for, from the young, hot stars to the great country music icons.”

New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu, in a statement, said the city was “thrilled” to welcome the festival. “This event adds yet another thread in the festival and music-filled fabric that New Orleans is so well-known for. We pride ourselves on our ability to host a wide range of large-scale events and look forward to inviting country music fans to our great city.”

Tickets and VIP Packages go on sale Thursday.

want to root for the good guy.

Screenwriter Adam G. Simon’s nonlinear story parses out details in such a way that we don’t know enough about Gabe’s situation to experience his emotional arc until the very end, which feels like a lost opportunity given its heart-wrenching heft.

Without that context, it’s hard to fully appreciate LaBeouf’s nuanced performance. We don’t understand what we’re looking at until it’s over.

“Man Down” ultimately has a lot to say about the debilitating effects of war and the dismal reality for many veterans who suffer from post-traumatic stress. It just waits too long to say it.

“Man Down,” a Lionsgate release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for “some disturbing violence, and language throughout.”

Running time: 92 minutes. Two stars out of four.
