State adjusts tax numbers BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Basket fund tops $3,000 The spirit of giving this Christmas season is alive and well in the Alcorn County area. Donations continue to arrive for the 19th Annual Corinth Rotary Club / Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund. A $25,000 fund raising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 6. Baskets were given away based upon faith the goal will be reached. So far, $3,197 has been raised. Recent donations include $100 anonymous gift in memory of Maggie Windom; $50 anonymous gift in honor of the “Ladies of the Roundtable”; $100 from Robert S. Vugrin; $100 from Roger and Pat Jacobs; $100 from Bernice Sandy in memory of Herb Sandy; and $250 from Mills Auto Sales. Contributions to the Christmas Basket Fund can be made “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special person or persons. The tribute will be published in the Daily Corinthian. Donations can be brought by the newspaper office 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday or mailed to: Daily Corinthian, Attn.:Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835.
The Mississippi Department of Revenue is revising several recent sales tax reports in favor of the city of Corinth. The city has been receiving the correct amount in its bank account, the Department of Revenue confirmed last week, but figures publicly released by the department did not include the city’s full sales tax diversion. City officials had noticed the discrepancy in the figures released by MDOR. Kathy Waterbury, communi-
state revolving fund loan payment deducted would have seen a discrepancy, as well. The adjusted number for the mid-November deposit made the difference between being slightly in the red or well into the black. The city received $490,530.07, an increase of 13 percent, or about $56,000, from the same month a year ago. The deposit reflects sales activity that occurred in local businesses during the month of September. Combined with the prior month’s 8 percent increase, the new fiscal year has
a total to date of $986,329.35, rising 10.5 percent from the same point a year earlier. Gross sales across all categories in Corinth during the latest reported month totaled $72.659 million, rising from $65.015 million a year earlier. With 12 consecutive monthly increases, the numbers are showing recovery from the recessionary lull that settled in during 2008 and slowed growth for several years. Municipalities receive 18.5 percent of the sales tax collected within their boundaries.

cations director at MDOR, said the department investigated and found that a reporting parameter had been changed resulting in net rather than gross sales tax being posted on the MDOR website. As a result, MDOR took down and is revising the last three months of reports. By posting the net rather than gross sales tax diversion, the report was excluding the city’s monthly loan payment of $64,679.13 that comes out of the city’s sales tax diversion.

Royce Wilder. According to Wilder, the annual event will see some of the favorites of years past as well as some new material performed during the three performances. Please see TREE | 2A
The city of Corinth is trying to keep big truck traffic headed in the right direction — away from residential streets. Some new signs directing truck traffic have begun to go up. “We are redoing all of the truck signage on Shiloh Road from Kendrick Road to Wenasoga Road,” said Street Commissioner Philip Verdung. “We are putting them in key places to hopefully get the trucks out of the area before they get into the residential area and definitely by the time they get to the low-clearance areas.” Trucks are frequently finding their way to the intersection of Shiloh and Taylor, where they can’t get through the railroad underpass and face a challenge in getting turned around. At Shiloh and Kendrick, signs will be placed on each side of the intersection to direct trucks to the appropriate route and inform drivers of any low clearances or other restrictions. The city is also looking to accommodate trucks turning from Proper to Pinecrest with the widening of Proper Street at the intersection. That would keep some of the truck traffic from heading to Harper Road.

First responders, law enforcement profiled BY DAVID HUWE For the Daily Corinthian
(Editor’s Note: This is the third of a six-part series about the progress that has been made by the City of Corinth over the past four years.) Three departments operate under the heading of first responders and law enforcement: Corinth Fire Department; Corinth Police Department; and Corinth Municipal Court. The fire department and police department are the largest departments within
the city from an employment standpoint, primarily because they are required to be staffed around the clock, seven days a week, and fifty-two weeks each year. These departments work to provide the citizens with a safer place in which to work and play, thus contributing to our quality of life.

“We love sharing Christmas. It never gets old.” Mary Green Church member and part of the singing tree since its debut in 1984
TREE CONTINUED FROM 1A
“The tree is always different,” said church member Mary Green, who has been part of the singing tree since its debut in 1984. First Baptist’s tradition started in 1984 with a small wooden structure done by youth in the courtyard. Today, the massive tree has grown from a wooden piece of work to an eight-tier steel structure with lights already part of the greenery. Ginny Cameron and Melinda Bennett combined to add a little something extra to the tree this year. “We made it bolder,” said Ben-

Animal shelter now open Sundays
Today in History
BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Today is Wednesday, Dec. 10, the 344th day of 2014. There are 21 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 10, 1964, Martin Luther King Jr. received his Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, saying he accepted it “with an abiding faith in America and an audacious faith in the future of mankind.�
On this date: In 1520, Martin Luther publicly burned the papal edict demanding that he recant, or face excommunication. In 1817, Mississippi was admitted as the 20th state of the Union. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt became the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, for helping mediate an end to the Russo-Japanese War. In 1931, Jane Addams became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize; the co-recipient was Nicholas Murray Butler. In 1948, the U.N. General Assembly adopted its Universal Declaration on Human Rights. In 1950, Ralph J. Bunche was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, the first black American to receive the award. In 1962, “Lawrence of Arabia,� David Lean’s epic film starring Peter O’Toole as British military officer T.E. Lawrence, had its royal gala premiere in London. In 1967, singer Otis Redding, 26, and six others were killed when their plane crashed into Wisconsin’s Lake Monona. In 1972, baseball’s American League adopted the designated hitter rule on an experimental basis for three years. In 1984, South African Bishop Desmond Tutu received the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1994, Yasser Arafat, Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin received the Nobel Peace Prize, pledging to pursue their mission of healing the anguished Middle East.
Ten years ago: President George W. Bush picked Samuel Bodman to be the new energy secretary.
Make it a perr-fect Christmas with a shelter pet. The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter announced this week it will provide animal lovers even more time to browse the shelter for their new four-legged friend. Starting this Sunday, the shelter will open it’s doors from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Normal hours are Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. “We’ve been really busy this month,� said shelter volunteer director Charlotte Doehner “So it
makes sense to be open on the remaining Sundays before Christmas.� Doehner said the shelter is coming off it’s best adoption weekend of the year. “We adopted out 16 dogs and cats last Saturday during our annual Christmas Open House,� she said. “It was truly amazing -- so many people in the community came out to the shelter. They made donations, dropped off needed supplies and, some even left with a new pet.� Although it can be tempting to surprise a loved one with a pet under the tree, Doehner advises against it.
“It’s important to bring family members to meet the prospective pets,� the director said. “It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone or the other pets in the family.� The adoption process is all about making the right match. If a person still likes the idea of a surprise gift, consider a letter from Santa which states the child may pick out their new pet at the shelter, said Doenher. For those who can’t adopt, Doehner suggests making a donation to the shelter. Lots of items are needed especially with more cold nights ahead.
“We could use blankets, pet beds and Igloo dog houses,� she said. “All these things are very important to helping all of our animals stay warm this winter.� Other items needed include newspapers, aluminum cans, used ink cartridges, bleach, cat litter and litter pans, dry dog and cat food, collars and leashes, food bowls and dog and cat toys.

tors such as manpower, response time, truck age and type, the city must take advantage of whatever grant opportunities present themselves in order to keep its equipment modern. Over the past two years, the city received two sizeable grants from the Assistance to Firefighters Grant program from the Department of Homeland Security. In 2013, the city was awarded $779,000 to assist with the purchase of a new ladder truck. This truck, known as a “Quint,� has a platform at the end of the ladder that is capable of holding two firefighters in full gear and is equipped with two nozzles with which to fight a fire from above. The truck, priced just under $820,000, required a local match of just $41,000. The Fire Department subsequently applied to the Mississippi Department of Insurance and received a $20,000 grant from the Rural Fire Truck Acquisition Assistance Program to further reduce our match contribution. Just recently, the city was awarded an additional grant of $133,458 for the purchase of air packs and attack hoses. The grant requires a local match of just $7,024. In addition to fighting fires, the fire department serves as first responders to accident and medical distress calls. The firefighters are trained in Emergency Medical Service/Basic Life Support, and respond to about 2,000 EMS/ BLS calls on average each year.
Police department The biggest change undertaken by the city within the 49-member Police Department in recent years was the construction of a new headquarters for the Corinth Police Department (CPD) at the new justice complex located on

Harper Road across from the Crossroads Arena. The city contributed $1,181,880 toward the justice complex costs for the police headquarters and one-half of the courtroom costs. In the process of moving the police department out of the municipal building, the city was able to close down the outmoded jail on the top floor of the building. Custody of the inmates is now the responsibility of the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Department, and the city is charged a daily fee for each inmate housed by the county. The CPD employs 42 full-time and 7 part-time staff consisting of patrols officers, detectives, dispatchers and administrators. The police department relies on its officers to be patrolling continuously to assure a visible presence and quick response to emergencies. Consequently, each patrol officer has a virtual office within his vehicle from which he can create and submit reports. This allows the patrol officers to generally remain within their assigned patrol areas throughout their shift. Unlike the most of the other departments within the city, the police department keeps its patrol vehicles running almost con-

tinuously, requiring that the CPD keep its fleet current. Since the beginning of 2011, the department has purchased 9 vehicles at a total cost of $229,470. In addition, $215,603 has been spent on equipment for the department. To assist with these purchases and other department costs, the CPD has received $107,614 in grant funds since 2012. These funds have helped purchase radios, defibrillators, electroshock weapons, training equipment and updated firearms for all of the officers.
Municipal court The municipal court also moved to new offices at the justice complex on Harper Road. The operations of the court are paid out of fines levied. One of the new programs implemented by the municipal court is an amnesty program, which allows persons who have been delinquent on paying off their fines to get back into the payment program without a new warrant being issued for their arrest. (David Huwe is Corinth Director of Community Development and Planning.)
ter’s Wish List — a listing of new items a person can purchase and have shipped to the shelter. Also available for purchase are the 2015 shelter calendars and the new shelter speciality tags. The calendar can be purchased for $15 at the shelter, online at alcornpets.com or on eBay. “One of the best Christmas gifts for an animal lover who supports the shelter would definitely be our new speciality tags,� said Doehner. “For just $31, a person can pre-order the tag for someone special.� (For more information, contact the shelter at 662-284-5800.)

Mark Boehler, 4A • Wednesday, December 10, 2014 editor Corinth, Miss.
Is law optional? The fiasco of “Rolling Stone” magazine’s apology for an unsubstantiated claim of gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity house – and the instant rush to judgment of the university administration in Sid Salter shutting down all fraterniColumnist ties, when those charges were made – should warn us about the dangers of having serious legal issues dealt with by institutions with no qualifications for that role. Rape is a crime. It belongs in a criminal justice courtroom. And those found guilty belong behind bars for a long time. What could possibly have led anyone to believe that college professors or campus administrators should be the ones making decisions about charges of criminal acts that can ruin the lives of the accuser or the accused? Many years ago, the late William F. Buckley said that he would rather be ruled by people with the first hundred names in the Boston phone book than by a hundred Harvard professors. Having spent more than half a century on academic campuses across the country, I would likewise rather have my fate decided by a hundred Americans chosen at random than by a hundred academics. Have we forgotten the charges of gang rape against members of the Duke lacrosse team in 2006 – and how quickly the lynch mob mentality swept across the campus, before there was a speck of evidence to indicate whether the young men were either guilty or innocent? Do we want people punished, based on other people’s preconceptions, rather than on the facts of the individual case? Apparently there are ranting mobs who do, and many in the media who give them a platform for spouting off, in exchange for the mobs’ providing them with footage that can attract an audience. The law is not the place for amateurs. We do not need legal issues to be determined by academics, the media or mobs in the streets. Every society has orders and rules, but not every society has the rule of law – “a government of laws and not of men.” Nor was it easy to achieve even an approximation of the rule of law. It took centuries of struggle – and lives risked and sacrificed – to achieve it in those countries which have some approximation of it today. To just throw all of that overboard because of mobs, the media or racial demagoguery is staggering. A generation that jumps to conclusions on the basis of its own emotions, or succumbs to the passions or rhetoric of others, deserves to lose the freedom that depends on the rule of law. Unfortunately, what they say and what they do can lose everyone’s freedom, including the freedom of generations yet unborn. If people who are told that they are under arrest, and who refuse to come with the police, cannot be forcibly taken into custody, then we do not have the rule of law, when the law itself is downgraded to suggestions that no one has the power to enforce. For people who have never tried to take into custody someone resisting arrest, to sit back in the safety and comfort of their homes or offices and second-guess people who face the dangers inherent in that process is yet another example of the irresponsible selfindulgences of our time. Force cannot be measured out by the teaspoon, and there are going to be incalculable risks every time force is resorted to, because no one can predict what is going to happen in the next moment. Anyone involved can end up in the hospital or the morgue. Let the responsibility lie with whoever forces a resort to force. When it comes to dealing with mobs, the idea that the police should not show up in riot gear, or with anti-riot equipment that looks menacing or “military” – lest this “inflame” the mob – is an idea that might have seemed plausible to some in 1960. But we have had more than half a century of experience to the contrary since then. The “kinder and gentler” approach was used in Detroit during its 1967 riots. More people died in those riots than in any other 1960s riots, the great majority them black.

Prayer for today My Father, I pray that I may be spared the deprivations that may come from years spent in selfishness. Help me to realize before it is too late how little self can hold and how much remorse may accumulate. Help me to aspire to ideals that compel me to live an immortal life. Amen.
A verse to share “Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.” Lamentations 3:40
A Russophobic rant from Congress Hopefully, Russians realize that our House of Representatives often passes thunderous resolutions to pander to special interests, which have no bearing on the thinking or actions of the U.S. government. Last week, the House passed such a resolution 411-10. As ex-Rep. Ron Paul writes, House Resolution 758 is so “full of war propaganda that it rivals the rhetoric from the chilliest era of the Cold War.” Among the 43 particulars in the House indictment is this gem: “The Russian Federation invaded the Republic of Georgia in August 2008.” Bullhockey. On Aug. 7-8, 2008, Georgia invaded South Ossetia, a tiny province that had won its independence in the 1990s. Georgian artillery killed Russian peacekeepers, and the Georgian army poured in. Only then did the Russian army enter South Ossetia and chase the Georgians back into their own country. The aggressor of the Russo-Georgia war was not Vladimir Putin but President Mikheil Saakashvili, brought to power in 2004 in one of those color-coded revolutions we engineered in the Bush II decade. H.R. 758 condemns the
presence of Russian troops in Abkhazia, which also broke from Georgia in the early Pat 1990s, and Buchanan in Transnistria, which Columnist broke from Moldova. But where is the evidence that the peoples of Transnistria, Abkhazia or South Ossetia want to return to Moldova or Georgia? We seem to support every ethnic group that secedes from Russia, but no ethnic group that secedes from a successor state. What do the people of Crimea, Transnistria, Georgia, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Luhansk or Donetsk want? Do we really know? Do we care? And what have the Russians done to support secessionist movements to compare with our 78-day bombing of Serbia to rip away her cradle province of Kosovo, which had been Serbian land before we were a nation? H.R. 758 charges Russia with an “invasion” of Crimea. But there was no air, land or sea invasion. The Russians were already there by treaty and the reannexation of Crimea, which had
belonged to Russia since Catherine the Great, was effected with no loss of life. Compare how Putin retrieved Crimea, with the way Lincoln retrieved the seceded states of the Confederacy – a four-year war in which 620,000 Americans perished. Russia is charged with using “trade barriers to apply economic and political pressure” and interfering in Ukraine’s “internal affairs.” This is almost comical. The U.S. has imposed trade barriers and sanctions on Russia, Belarus, Iran, Cuba, Burma, Congo, Sudan, and a host of other nations. Economic sanctions are the first recourse of the American Empire. And agencies like the National Endowment for Democracy and its subsidiaries, our NGOs and Cold War radios, RFE and Radio Liberty, exist to interfere in the internal affairs of countries whose regimes we dislike, with the end goal of “regime change.” Was that not the State Department’s Victoria Nuland, along with John McCain, prancing around Kiev, urging insurgents to overthrow the democratically elected government of Viktor Yanukovych? Was Nuland not caught boasting about how the U.S.
had invested $5 billion in the political reorientation of Ukraine, and identifying whom we wanted as prime minister when Yanukovych was overthrown? H.R. 758 calls the President of Russia an “authoritarian” ruler of a corrupt regime that came to power through election fraud and rules by way of repression. Damning Russian “aggression,” the House demands that Russia get out of Crimea, South Ossetia, Abkhazia and Transnistria, calls on Obama to end all military cooperation with Russia, impose “visa bans, targeted asset freezes, sectoral sanctions,” and send “lethal ... defense articles” to Ukraine. This is the sort of ultimatum that led to Pearl Harbor. Why would a moral nation arm Ukraine to fight a longer and larger war with Russia that Kiev could not win, but that could end up costing the lives of ten of thousands more Ukrainians? Those who produced this provocative resolution do not belong in charge of U.S. foreign policy, nor of America’s nuclear arsenal. (Daily Corinthian columnist Pat Buchanan is an American conservative political commentator, author, syndicated columnist, politician and broadcaster.)
Don’t look for much emphasis on abortion in 2016 Americans are divided politically along cultural, not economic, lines. Partisan preference is highly correlated with views on noneconomic issues and only loosely related to economic status. This is the norm rather than the exception in American political history. Party preference has run along regional, racial and ethnic lines more than the divisions along economic lines that became dominant in the New Deal era and began petering out in the late 1960s. Yet, based on the 2014 electoral cycle, I believe you are not likely to hear much about cultural issues in the 2016 campaign cycle that is about to begin. Why? Start with abortion, the most prominent cultural issue over the last 40 years, since the Supreme Court legalized abortion in all 50 states in the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. At the time, politicians of both parties shunned the issue, since it divided both parties’ coalitions. Traditionally Democratic Catholics started defecting to Republicans opposed to abortion, in late 1970s

Senate races and the 1980 presidential election. Traditionally Republican mainline Michael Protestants Barone who supported Planned Columnist Parenthood – people like Dorothy Walker Bush, mother and grandmother of presidents – started finding Democrats more palatable. By the election of 1992 – which mainstream media proclaimed the “year of the woman” in Senate races – almost all Democratic politicians and most Democratic voters were pro-choice on abortion. Pro-life Pennsylvania Gov. Bob Casey was denied a speaking slot at the Democratic National Convention. And almost all Republican politicians (including the George Bushes) and most Republican voters were pro-life. Abortion had become a litmus test for both parties’ nominations. Through all this partisan churning, public opinion on the issue has remained pretty steady. Most Americans don’t want abortion recriminalized, but most
also consider it morally dubious and support measures to limit it. Young voters are less supportive of abortion. The number of abortions and, even more, the abortion rate have been declining since the early 1980s. Abortion has become like cigarette smoking: permitted but disfavored, practiced largely by downscale consumers. Justice Harry Blackmun in Roe v. Wade celebrated abortion as an answer to overpopulation. But Americans seem to realize, uneasily, that every abortion extinguishes a human life. Republicans know from bitter experience that mainstream media will try to depict them as supporters of criminalizing abortion – a minority position. But Democrats have learned – or should have – from the experience of Sen. Mark Udall in Colorado this year, that abortion absolutism hurts them as well. Udall opposed any limits on abortion and devoted half his TV ads to the “war on women.” Pro-Udall ads charged that if Republican Cory Gardner were elected, contraceptives would become illegal or scarce – de-

spite the fact that the Supreme Court guaranteed otherwise 49 years ago. Gardner won, partly because the pro-Udall claims weren’t credible, but probably more important, because abortion absolutism struck many voters, notably Hispanics, as irrelevant to their concerns. In short, abortion is unlikely to be a differentiating issue in the primaries, and the positions of the two parties’ core groups – recriminalization and abortion absolutism – are unpopular with the great mass of general election voters. So I’m guessing that you’re not going to hear much about abortion in the 2016 campaign. I’ll have more to say about other cultural issues – same-sex marriage, no-fault divorce, “climate change,” gun control, criminal sentencing – in a later column.

IRS paid $6 billion in bogus credits WASHINGTON — The IRS paid at least $6 billion in child tax credits in 2013 to people who weren’t eligible to receive them, a government investigator said Tuesday. Payments went to families that mistakenly claimed the tax credit or claimed the wrong amount, as well as taxpayers who committed fraud, according to an audit by J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. The audit highlights problems with a tax credit that President Barack Obama has championed as a way to help lowincome working families. Obama’s 2009 economic stimulus package temporarily expanded the credit to more families that don’t make enough money to pay federal income tax. These families receive the $1,000-per-child credit in the form of a tax refund. The report released Tuesday focused on payments to these families. The expanded tax credit expires at the end of 2017. Some Democrats in Congress tried to make it permanent as part of a package of tax breaks lawmakers are rushing to pass before leaving town for the year. But those talks collapsed.
Aide apologizes for ‘glib’ remarks WASHINGTON (AP) — MIT economist Jonathan Gruber — an often-quoted adviser on the president’s health care law — told Congress on Tuesday he was glib and “inexcusably arrogant” when he said it was “the stupidity of the American voter” that led to the law’s passage. Democrats tried to limit the damage as Republicans raked Gruber at a four-hour hearing, but acknowledged he gave the GOP a political gift “wrapped in a bow.” Gruber told groups in 2012 and 2013 that voter stupidity and a “lack of transparency” were important to passing the hard-fought legislation. Appearing before the House Oversight committee Tuesday, Gruber expanded
on earlier apologies, repeatedly saying “I was conjecturing in areas beyond my expertise.” Enduring one fierce lecture after another, Gruber said his earlier comments were uninformed, “glib, thoughtless and sometimes downright insulting.” He said he was showing off before various groups, and “trying to be something, I’m not, which was a political expert.” He said the law’s passage was actually transparent and heavily debated in public, despite his earlier comments. And Gruber said he was not the “architect” of the law, as some press accounts had claimed. But Republican Committee Chairman Darrell Issa of California called Gruber a crucial player in the legislation. Issa grilled Gruber repeatedly in what might be his last committee probe of what he calls “Obamacare.” Republican term limits will force Issa — whose bare-knuckled attacks on administration programs sometimes annoy GOP leaders — to surrender the committee chairmanship in the next Congress.
Mom, sons among 6 dead in crash WASHINGTON — A plane that crashed into a house in the Washington, D.C., suburbs, killing six people, showed no indication of engine trouble, but it had slowed to a nearstall just before it came down, a federal transportation official said Tuesday. The Monday crash killed a mother and two young children on the ground, as well as the three occupants of the plane. The private jet had slowed to just over 100 mph and its computers began sounding an alarm about an impending aerodynamic stall, National Transportation Safety Board member Robert Sumwalt said after a preliminary review of the plane’s flight data recorder. After the stall warning sounded, the pilot used the throttle and the engines responded, he said. Sumwalt said he had not listened to the cockpit voice recorder and did not summarize anything the pilot said before the crash. Ac-

cording to the data recorder and witnesses interviewed by the NTSB, the plane pitched and rolled severely in the seconds before the crash, he said. The crash sparked a fireball that gutted a house where Marie Gemmell, 36, tried to protect 3-year-old Cole and 1-month-old Devin from the smoke and fire, but there was nothing she could do, Montgomery County police spokesman Capt. Paul Starks said. Her body was found in a secondfloor bathroom, lying on top of her sons.

Burned-to-death case investigated COURTLAND — Mississippi authorities have launched a homicide investigation into the death of a 19-year-old woman who was found badly burned on a road near her car that was on fire. Jessica Chambers was doused with a flammable liquid and set on fire Saturday, said Panola County Sheriff Dennis Darby. Panola County Coroner Gracie Gulledge said the cause of death was thermal injuries. An autopsy was ordered, and Gulledge was hoping to get results late Tuesday. Authorities said initial autopsy results reveal Chambers died from burns that covered 98 percent of her body. District Attorney John Champion said investigators were questioning several possible witnesses and reviewing Chambers’ cellphone data. The phone was found near the car. Warren Strain, spokesman for the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, said Tuesday that law enforcement agencies were following leads in the case. Chambers was flown to a hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, where she was declared dead. Darby said detectives were working to learn who the woman may have been with before her death.
Time runs short for spending bill WASHINGTON — Time running short, Republicans and Democrats reached for elusive agreement Tuesday on a $1.1 trillion spending bill to avoid a government shutdown and delay a politically-charged struggle over President Barack Obama’s new immigration policy until the new year. As obstacles to a deal dwindled, officials said the outcome was uncertain for an emerging plan that would permit benefit cuts for as many as 1.5 million retirees at economically distressed multiemployer pension plans. “The federal government’s going to run out of money in two days. ... We’ve been trying to work with Republican leaders to avoid a shutdown,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada said in midafternoon as final negotiations dragged on. The GOP high command said they wanted nothing of the kind, and Speaker John Boehner said he expected a vote in the House on the spending bill by Thursday. Failing that, officials said they would prepare a short-term measure to assure uninterrupted operations of government for a day or two to provide enough time for the larger bill to clear both houses. The events coincided with the end of an era of Democratic control of the Senate. Republicans will have a majority in January after gaining nine seats in midterm elections, and newly elected GOP senatorselect participated in closed-door strategy sessions during the day.
Lawmakers release budget blueprint JACKSON — Top lawmakers are proposing a slightly smaller Mississippi budget for the coming year, despite their expectation that state revenue will increase. The 13-member Joint Legislative Budget Committee on Tuesday released its $6 billion spending blueprint for fiscal 2016, which begins July 1. That would be $112.2 million smaller than the current budget. House Speaker Philip Gunn, R-Clinton, said the plan could be changed once it’s debated by the full House and Senate. Lawmakers start meeting in January, and they have an early April deadline to adopt a spending plan. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant last month re-

leased his own proposal for a $6.2 billion budget, and it also could be considered during the session. Lawmakers typically pay more attention to their own budget ideas than the governor’s. The legislative committee’s proposed budget would aside money for the second year of a teacher pay raise, but it would fall about $280 million short for the school funding formula, the Mississippi Adequate Education Program. It would decrease funding for Medicaid, universities, community colleges, human services and mental health. The legislative proposal would save money by reducing travel, limiting purchase of equipment and eliminating 2,200 vacant government jobs. It also would put millions of dollars into cash reserves.
Restitution upheld against ex-educator JACKSON — A federal appeals panel has ordered a former Mississippi school superintendent to pay a $75,000 lump sum restitution in a bribery case. Former Greenville schools superintendent Harvey Franklin is serving a 76-month sentence for taking more than $270,000 in bribes to influence the school board to use a reading program for children. He also was ordered to pay $1.2 million in restitution to the U.S. Department of Education. The first $75,000 was due in mid-January 2014. Franklin’s attorney had argued to U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock in Aberdeen that Franklin’s assets were all but depleted. Nevertheless, Aycock ruled in last
December that Franklin had the ability to pay the $75,000. The three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Monday that Franklin did not object to a financial statement that accompanied his pre-sentence report to the judge. The report included the amount or availability of several liquid assets totaling $92,000. Without an objection from Franklin, the Mississippi judge assumed the pre-sentence report was accurate and was free to order the restitution, the panel said. Franklin’s attorney argued the depletion of Franklin’s funds was largely due to expenses related to the bribery case and medical expenses.
Human trafficking task force created JACKSON — Gov. Phil Bryant has created a task force to recommend ways to strengthen efforts in Mississippi to combat human trafficking. Bryant says in a news release Tuesday that he expects to receive the task force’s recommendations by July 1, 2015. State officials say human trafficking is forced labor. It can involve people who are made to work under pressure and against their will in sex jobs in prostitution or pornography or in other fields such as manufacturing, farming, construction, janitorial services or restaurant work. Bryant says the Mississippi Office of Homeland Security will be the lead agency for the task force. Bryant will appoint members.

Senate probe catalogs brutality against detainees BY BRADLEY KLAPPER AND KEN DILANIAN Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The United States brutalized scores of terror suspects with interrogation tactics that turned secret CIA prisons into chambers of suffering and did nothing to make America safer after the 9/11 attacks, Senate investigators concluded Tuesday. The Senate Intelligence Committee’s torture report, years in the making, accused the CIA of misleading its political masters about what it was doing with its “black site” captives and deceiving the nation about the effectiveness of its techniques. The report was the first public accounting of tac-
tics employed after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and it described far harsher actions than had been widely known. Tactics included confinement to small boxes, weeks of sleep deprivation, simulated drowning, slapping and slamming, and threats to kill, harm or sexually abuse families of the captives. The report produced revulsion among many, challenges to its veracity among some lawmakers and a sharp debate about whether it should have been released at all. GOP Sen. John McCain, tortured in Vietnam as a prisoner of war, was out of step with some fellow Republicans in welcoming the report and

endorsing its findings. “We gave up much in the expectation that torture would make us safer,” he said in a Senate speech. “Too much.” Five hundred pages were released, representing the executive summary and conclusions of a still-classified 6,700-page full investigation. President Barack Obama declared the past practices to be “contrary to our values” and pledged, “I will continue to use my authority as president to make sure we never resort to those methods again.” Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, the Democratic committee chairman whose staff prepared the summary, branded
the findings a stain on the nation’s history. “Under any common meaning of the term, CIA detainees were tortured,” she declared, commanding the Senate floor for an extended accounting of the techniques identified in the investigation. The report catalogued the use of ice baths, death threats, shackling in the cold and much more. Three detainees faced the simulated drowning technique known as waterboarding. Many developed psychological problems. But the “enhanced interrogation techniques” didn’t produce the results that really mattered, the report asserts in its most controversial conclusion.

It cites CIA cables, emails and interview transcripts to rebut the central justification for torture — that it thwarted terror plots and saved American lives. In a statement, CIA Director John Brennan said the agency made mistakes and has learned from them. But he also asserted the coercive techniques “did produce intelligence that helped thwart attack plans, capture terrorists and save lives.” George Tenet, who was CIA director at the time, said in an interview, “We know that the program led to the capture of alQaida leaders and took them off the battlefield, that it prevented mass casualty attacks and that it saved thousands of American lives.” Top Republicans, including Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, agreed.

of Nevada, the Senate majority leader. He said, “It got us nothing except a bad name.” The report, released after months of negotiations with the administration about what should be censored, was issued as U.S. embassies and military sites worldwide fortified security in case of an anti-American backlash. Earlier this year, Feinstein accused the CIA of infiltrating Senate computer systems in a dispute over documents as relations between the investigators and the spy agency deteriorated, the issue still sensitive years after Obama ordered a halt to any such interrogation practices upon taking office. President George W. Bush approved the program through a covert finding in 2002, but he wasn’t briefed by the CIA about the details until 2006.

Heartwarming story: ‘The Comforter’ BY JIMMY REED Columnist
While serving overseas, a group of us soldiers visited Dachau Concentration Camp, where untold thousands of innocent people were murdered. Many were worked to death; many starved; many were tortured; many died of exposure; many were used for target practice; many were herded together and mowed down with machine guns; many asphyxiated in gas chambers. Bodies were cremated or dumped in mass graves and covered with bulldozers. Life-size murals showed prisoners being tortured, while sadistic, laughing SS officers watched. Instruments of torture, such as barbed-wire riding quirts and sharp-pointed goads, were displayed. Barracks contained wooden, coverless cots stacked from floor to ceiling. Dachau is the ultimate definition of man’s inhumanity to man. Recently, I found a Christmas story filed away years ago that rekindled memories of Dachau. A preacher and his wife were establishing a church in a dangerous metropolitan area. Funds were limited, so they chose a rundown building for their church. After renovating the interior, they announced that the first service would be held on the following Sunday, a few days before Christ-

Unfortunately, a storm shook loose a large chunk of plaster from the wall behind the pulpit. Knowing he didn’t have time to repair it, the preacher searched for something to cover the gaping hole. On a whim, he stopped at a flea market, and found what could cover the hole temporarily: a hand-sewn comforter with a large cross in its center. Upon reaching his church, he noticed an old lady who had missed a bus, and invited her to come in where it was warm. Then he placed the comforter over the hole; it fit perfectly. “Where did you get that comforter?” the old lady gasped. When he told her, she explained that she had sewn it for her husband many years ago. The preacher offered to give it to her. “Oh, no, it will serve a far better purpose where you have it.” To

express his gratitude, he drove her home. On the way, she explained that in 1938, when Hitler annexed Austria, she was allowed to leave the country, but that her husband was taken prisoner. They never saw each other again. After the preacher’s first sermon, an old man came forward and asked him where he had gotten the comforter. He told the preacher that his wife had sewn it for him, but he had not seen or heard from her in a half century. All he knew was that she fled to America. He never stopped loving her, and had to find out if she was alive, or where she was buried. The preacher exclaimed, “Sir, you are about to receive one of the greatest Christmas gifts of your life.” He drove to the lady’s home, and told the man to knock on the door. When it opened, a man and his wife, whose love for each other the evils of Nazism could never destroy, embraced and wept for joy. On Christmas Day, the preacher brought them a gift: the comforter.

Volunteers bring Santa Claus to remote Alaskan village BY MARK THIESSEN Associated Press
SHISHMAREF, Alaska — Volunteers who brought Christmas to a remote Inupiat Eskimo community on Alaska’s western coast came bearing necessities like coats and school supplies as well as rare treats like apples, oranges and even ice cream. “‘Cause everybody loves ice cream,” said 17-yearold Cheyenne Nayokpuk when asked why anyone living 25 miles south of the Arctic Circle would want the cold treat. The Operation Santa Program and the Alaska
National Guard brought toys and other gifts to Shishmaref during the Saturday visit. It’s the 58th year the program has brought a little holiday cheer to remote Alaska villages, where poverty is widespread. “For some of these kids, if it weren’t for the toys we’re delivering, they might not get a toy or anything at Christmas,” said Maj. George Baker, divisional commander for the Salvation Army in Alaska. “In many respects, some of these village areas are almost like Third World villages, and a lot people don’t understand
that,” he said. “You think we’re living in the United States, but for a lot of these folks, this makes Christmas for them. Were it not for (Operation) Santa, they might not have anything.” Besides Shishmaref, the other village that received a visit this year was Newtok. Both are among Alaska’s most eroded villages; both have plans to relocate, with Newtok further along in the process. The National Guard provided a C-130 transport plane to take the volunteers, including a Salvation Army band, and gifts to Shishmaref,

located about 600 miles northwest of Anchorage or about 100 miles east from Russia, across the Bering Strait in the Chukchi Sea. “There is a lot of need in Shishmaref,” school Principal Ralph Watkins said. “Having access to just some of your basic things is an event.” He said it takes effort to get to the village. For anyone wanting to get there from the Lower 48 states, it would require first a flight to Anchorage, followed by another airplane ride to Nome, followed
by a small-plane ride to Shishmaref. It’s a big deal for someone to come in and bring gifts, he said. “It’s all the kids have been talking about for the last week,” he said. Some community members drove their snowmobiles to the airstrip to greet the arriving airplane and wave to Santa and Mrs. Claus as they got off. The honored couple rode in a pickup to the school for the big event, while other volunteers jumped in sleds and were pulled to town by
snowmobiles. Before Santa and Mrs. Claus made their appearance, the children of Shishmaref welcomed the visitors with Alaska Native dances. Nellie Okpowruk, 18, was among the students standing in a long line to see Santa and Mrs. Claus. As for her gift, she had something specific on her wish list. “I want a trip, a roundtrip ticket to Oregon to see my cousin and her daughter,” she said with a giggle.

Healthy expansion Shares of CVS Health are up 13.6 percent since Sept. 3. That’s when the company changed its name, it was formerly CVS Caremark, and announced that it’s “tobacco free.� But removing cigarettes from its pharmacies isn’t the main driver of investor interest. A key growth area is the company’s pharmacy benefits management, or PBM, business. In the third quarter, revenue from its PBM business increased 16 percent, and operating profit from that segment increased 7.3 percent.
That growth was helped by specialty drugs, which are very expensive, usually injected, drugs for complex chronic health conditions. CVS has started a new program called Specialty Connect that enables customers with these prescriptions to either pick them up at pharmacies or order through the mail. It’s a significant opportunity. Morgan Stanley estimates the market for specialty drugs could grow from approximately $118 billion this year to $168 billion by 2018.

Exxon sees abundant oil, gas far into future BY JONATHAN FAHEY AP Energy Writer
NEW YORK — North America, once a sponge that sucked in a significant portion of the world’s oil, will instead be supplying the world with oil and other liquid hydrocarbons by the end of this decade, according to ExxonMobil’s annual long-term energy forecast. And the “almost unspeakable� amount of natural gas found in recent years in the U.S. and elsewhere in North America will be enough to make the region one of the world’s biggest exporters of that fuel by 2025, even as domestic demand for it increases, according to Bill Colton, Exxon’s chief strategist. “The world has such an improved outlook for supplies,� Colton said in an interview. “Peak oil theorists have been run out of town by American ingenuity.�
In a forecast that might make economists happy but environmentalists fret, Exxon’s two chief products, oil and natural gas, will be abundant and affordable enough to meet the rising demand for energy in the developing world as the global middle class swells to 5 billion from 2 billion and buys energy-hungry conveniences such as cars and air conditioners. This is a result of advances in drilling technology that have made it possible for engineers to reach oil and gas in unconventional rock and extreme locations and quieted talk that the world was quickly running out of oil. And it is despite what Exxon assumes will be increasingly strict policies around the world on emissions of carbon dioxide and other gasses emitted by fossil fuel use that scientists say are trigger-
ing dangerous changes to the world’s climate. Exxon’s outlook forecasts world energy supply and demand through 2040 and is updated every year. It is noted by investors and policymakers and used by Exxon to shape its long-term strategy. Colton said the recent sharp decline in oil prices does not have much effect on the company’s longterm vision, and that the company expects prices to rise and fall, sometimes dramatically, throughout the period. Exxon’s vision is broadly similar to that of other forecasters, including those by the International Energy Agency, which released its most recent long-term forecast last month. Demand for energy will grow rapidly in coming decades in the developing world, while demand in the developed world
is expected to be flat or even decline as countries impose stricter emissions policies and become more efficient. The use of coal, now the world’s second most important fuel after oil, will eventually slip as countries try to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Natural gas, which burns cleaner than coal and emits half the global warming gases as coal, will supplant coal in the number two spot. Exxon takes a relatively dim view of the prospects for renewable energy, however. It believes that some of the aggressive targets for renewables cited by governments are too expensive to come to fruition, and the technologies have not advanced far enough to make them cheap or effective enough for broad adoption globally. “They are just not ready
for prime time,� Colton says. While Exxon expects wind, solar and other non-hydro electric energy to grow faster by far than any other energy technology over the period, those renewables will provide just 4 percent of the world’s energy by 2040, up from 1 percent in 2010. Fossil fuels will still dominate: Oil will account for 32 percent of world energy, natural gas for 26 percent, and coal for 19 percent. Nuclear and biomass will account for 8 percent each, and hydroelectric power will account for 3 percent. Michael E. Mann, a climate scientist and director of Penn State’s Earth System Science Center, notes that many experts dispute Exxon’s conclusion on renewables because in several places around the world renew-
able energy is competitive with the price of traditional power, even without a high price on carbon pollution that Exxon and others seem to agree is coming. Scientists say if Exxon’s vision comes to pass the world’s climate system will become dangerous and chaotic, and some environmental economists suggest that economies will be forced to stop burning fossil fuels at such high rates to prevent catastrophic climate change. “Exxon’s vision of a fossil fuel-driven future is one in which carbon dioxide levels rise well beyond the dangerous limit, where we will witness fundamental threats to food, water, land, our economy, national security, and our environment,� Mann says. “Let us hope, for the sake of us and our planet, that this is not our future.�
159 arrested during third night of California protests BY KRISTIN J. BENDER AND PAUL ELIAS Associated Press
BERKELEY, Calif. — Hundreds of people marched through Berkeley for a third night a row, blocking a major highway and stopping a train as activists in this ultra-liberal bastion protested grand jury decisions not to indict white police officers in the deaths of two unarmed black men on the other side of the country. Protesters blocked traffic on both sides of Interstate 80 in Berkeley, while another group stood and sat on train tracks, temporarily forcing an Amtrak train to stop Monday night. The California Highway Patrol said a large group of demonstrators destroyed highway perimeter fencing, flooded lanes and threw rocks and other objects at officers. It took about an hour and a half to clear the interstate, and no major injuries were reported. The agency arrested 150 people on suspicion of resisting arrest, obstructing police and other charges. The Berkeley Police Department arrested an ad-
ditional nine people, including a juvenile, Officer Jennifer Coats said early Tuesday. She described the latest protests as mostly peaceful, with no injuries and no reports of looting or damaged property. Police estimated the crowd at about 1,500 people. The protesters began peacefully marching Monday through downtown Berkeley. The first stop for demonstrators shouting, “Who do you protect? Peaceful protest� was the Police Department, where a line of officers in riot gear blocked them from getting close to the building. The group then headed to a Bay Area Rapid Transit train station and sat outside, prompting authorities to shut down the station briefly. But as the night went on, the protesters divided into smaller groups who disrupted traffic and train passengers. “The cops need to know, the world needs to know, people of color are subjected to a brutal police state every day,� Berkeley resident Johnny Nguyen told the Oakland Tribune
on Monday evening. Although many activists in other parts of the country have gone home, protests in Berkeley and Oakland are still active, reflecting the area’s long history of protest dating to the 1960s. The crowds that came out to protest are not college students or residents so much as full-time demonstrators who protest anything — war, prison conditions and economic inequality — and sometimes use demonstrations as a pretext for violence and vandalism, just as they did during the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates said a tiny fraction of protesters obscured the wider message calling for reform of policing policies nationwide. “The people in the Bay Area are sensitive to worldwide issues,� Bates said. “Unfortunately, there is a small element that uses violence at times to make their point.� In keeping with the city’s protest history, Berkeley leaders have put limits on police.

Wife of deaf husband seeks to cope in new surroundings D E A R ABBY: My husband, “Norm,” has become profoundly deaf. He has a cochlear imAbigail plant in one and a Van Buren ear hearing aid in the other; Dear Abby neither has helped much. He has extreme difficulty with speech recognition. We can talk together in the quiet of our home as long as I sit right next to him and speak slowly. We use assisted-listening devices to communicate with each other in the car or at a restaurant. Norm’s hearing loss has affected us as a couple. We no longer have a social life. When Norm and I are out together, we become “invisible” to other couples. It’s just too much work for anyone to communicate with us. We are about to move to a retirement community where one meal a day is included in the dining room. I’m worried about how we will navigate the social aspects of eating with others, who will rapidly decide they don’t want to eat with us again because of the difficulty of trying to chat
with Norm. Norm is well aware of this problem. He has proposed that he eat alone in our apartment while I go to the dining room and meet people, unencumbered by his impairment. Can you advise? -- TRAPPED IN A SITUATION DEAR TRAPPED: Before moving into the retirement community, make a point of discussing your husband’s severe hearing impairment with the director, the nurse and/or their medical adviser because they need to be made aware of your husband’s special needs in order to be able to accommodate him, if it’s possible. According to the House Clinic in Los Angeles (www.houseearclinic.com), he will probably be advised to check in with his otologist (a doctor who specializes in the anatomy and physiology of the ear) to see if anything further can be done to improve his hearing. I hope you will follow through with that suggestion, because advances are being made in this field every year, and it may help your husband be less isolated. DEAR ABBY: What is the rule of etiquette in sending out and signing Christmas cards from my family when one child is over 20 and in college? Do I send cards from just my
husband, me, and the kids still living at home? Or should I also include my son, the one away at college? -- REALLY CONFUSED IN TEXAS DEAR REALLY CONFUSED: Even if your son is away at college, he is still a part of your family, so include him. Once he has finished with school and is out on his own, that would be the time to suggest he start sending his own greetings. DEAR ABBY: My son took his own life last year. I am raising his small children because their mother is out of the picture. How do I tell them how their daddy died? -- GRANDMA IN THE MIDWEST DEAR GRANDMA: Tell them gradually when they start asking questions. If they ask why Daddy died, say he was very ill. When they want to know what the illness was, tell them he suffered from depression. When they want more details, reveal them in an age-appropriate manner. 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). Goodness will come in strange packaging. Your creative mind and curious heart will help you see the beauty and benefit in commonly overlooked places. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s something you need to forgive before you can move on. It probably won’t be readily apparent, but you’re in a thoughtful, soul-searching mood, and you’ll strike upon the answer before you fall asleep tonight. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a feeling and an intention behind everything, and you’re so in touch with it these days. It’s not the facts but the spirit in which they are revealed that seems to matter most now. CANCER (June 22-July 22). It takes a big person to observe others without feeling the need to judge them. Non-judgment allows for deeper insight and an even-minded, more effective way of dealing with others.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Frugality can be exciting, as it engages your creativity. The challenge of getting the most out of the least will be most satisfying, and later you may even brag about it to envious friends. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You know right away what you’re interested in and what you’re not interested in. Those who try to hard sell you are wasting their time. You’ll find a polite way to cut short such efforts. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your perfectionist instincts will lead you astray or make you late. Instead of thinking too deeply into things, keep it simple. Show up on time, and get to the bottom of what needs to happen. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Wishes, spells, curses -- these are the instruments of fairytales written off by many as poppycock. You, however, see the value in entertaining such fantasy, if only for metaphoric relevance.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your favorite people are those you can go anywhere with -- to the gas station or the dump or to a fancy party -- and it’s always the same: You feel comfortable and have fun. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Trust is the basis for all of the important interactions. Sales, friendship, romance, exchanges of service and more will go smoothly only after trust has been established. If it can’t be established, don’t go forward. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a talent for uncovering people’s real motivation. Actually, all you do is find a friendly, appropriate way to ask, but you’d be surprised how many people forget to do this. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll present ideas and solutions -- the best ones will not be free! Let others know the whole price up front, and anticipate the objections that could arise.

NASCAR Chairman Brian France discusses variety of issues with the media
NASCAR Chairman Brian France “wants drivers to be able to express themselves.” cifically for the XFINITY Series, in Canada: “We have a nice fan base there. It’s roughly, percentage-wise, the size of what follows us here in the U.S. We’re going to always be looking to see how we can take events, not just on television, but to and from at various places, because that’s a fan base that we know is there, and south of the border, different discussion, that’s obviously where we’ve also had a lot of success, and we also have an important Hispanic fan base that we’re trying to elevate, get excited about NASCAR. “Our moves in and out of markets in North America will not change. It’s still very important to us.” On the highly publicized melee that erupted on pit road at Texas Motor Speedway following the most recent Cup race there: “We don’t think what happened in Texas — with crew members getting into a fistfight — is a good thing for NASCAR. We realize that emotions sometimes will get you there, and we reacted very harshly if you look at the scope of those penalties, and we should have. … “The bottom line is we want the drivers to be able to express themselves. We don’t have dugouts or locker rooms per se. We often have drivers park pre-race and everything else very close to one another, and that’s part of the fabric of NASCAR that after a race or before, it’s not unusual for [drivers] to express themselves and have a heated conversation between them. We’re not going to change that. “But now crew members and others who join in, that’s a different discussion, and like I said, we dealt with that.”
Of all the honors Dale Earnhardt Jr. has won in his many years on the NASCAR scene — including 12 consecutive Most Popular Driver awards, including another this year, as well as two championships in the series now known as Nationwide — his latest honor seemed to mean as much to him as any. Last week it was announced that Earnhardt was the winner of the 2014 Myers Brothers Award from the National Motorsports Press Association. The annual award recognizes those who have made outstanding contributions to the sport of stock car racing. It is named for pioneering NASCAR drivers Billy and Bobby Myers. “This doesn’t even seem real,” Earnhardt told reporters after receiving the award during the Sprint Cup champion’s week celebration in Las Vegas. “The truth is, obviously, I’m extremely humbled by this award, but I feel like I share it on so many levels — my sister Kelley (Earnhardt Miller), along with everyone at JR Motorsports, is as deserving of this as anyone. I have a lot of passions with NASCAR, but I wouldn’t be able to know how to make them realities without all those folks.” Earnhardt was honored for his use of his JR Motorsports team to help young drivers like Brad Keselowski, Aric Almirola, Cole Whitt and Danica Patrick gain the experience they needed to advance to the elite Sprint Cup Series, and for helping up-and-coming drivers like Josh Berry and William Byron as they compete at the Late Model level. One of Earnhardt’s young drivers, Chase Elliott, won this year’s Nationwide title in Earnhardt’s car, becoming the youngest driver ever to win a major NASCAR championship. Earnhardt was also honored for his charity work, which includes

Nemechek uses bold move to win 2014 Snowball Derby
John Hunter Nemecheck won the 2014 Snowball Derby at Five Flags Speedway. Part-time Camping World Truck Series driver John Hunter Nemechek won the biggest asphalt Late Model race of them all last Sunday, as he used a four-wide move in the closing laps to win the 47th annual Snowball Derby at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Florida. Earlier this year, Nemechek, the son of NASCAR veteran Joe Nemechek, won another major Late Model race, as he was victorious in the All-American 400 at Fairgrounds Speedway in Nashville, Tennessee. The Snowball Derby field included several drivers from the NASCAR circuit. Nationwide Series champion Chase Elliott contended for the win early, but dropped out after his car was damaged in an on-track incident. Camping World Truck Series driver Erik Jones — like Elliott. a former Derby winner — also had problems, and finished 27th. Matt Kenseth’s son, Ross, was 35th, and Corey LaJoie, son of former Nationwide champ Randy LaJoie, finished 13th.
Betty Jane France Humanitarian Award goes to Daniel Noltemeyer Daniel Noltemeyer of Louisville, Kentucky, who works with Best Buddies Kentucky, received the fourth annual Betty Jane France Humanitarian Award during last Friday’s Sprint Cup Awards banquet at Wynn Las Vegas. Noltemeyer will receive a $100,000 donation for Best Buddies Kentucky from The NASCAR Foundation and a 2015 Toyota Camry from Toyota. Noltemeyer, who has Down syndrome, is one of the founders of Best Buddies Kentucky, an organization that works on behalf of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. “I helped found Best Buddies Kentucky five years ago, [and] I want to give back to an organization that has changed my life,” he said in accepting the award. “I have learned to be a strong advocate for myself and others with disabilities, but most of all, I have made special friendships.” The other three finalists for the award were Daniel Noltemeyer received the fourth-annual Betty Jane France Humanitarian Award during Sprint Cup champion’s week.

Earnhardt and Sprint Cup champion Kevin Harvick weren’t the only ones honored in Las Vegas last week. Harvick won several other awards besides his championship, including the 3M Lap Leader Award and Mobil 1 Driver of the Year.

NASCAR’s Most Popular Driver wins 2014 Myers Brothers Award
The two networks that will broadcast NASCAR races next year, FOX and NBC, have put their competitiveness aside when it comes to promoting NASCAR racing and have collaborated on a promotional video that will be used to build interest in the 2015 season. “It’s no secret that we compete rather fiercely in most other areas of our business, but given all of the excitement surrounding the sport, we felt the time was right to come together and celebrate our new broadcast partnership,” NBC Sports Group’s Chief Marketing Officer John Miller said in making the announcement. “Our collective competitive spirit yielded a piece that turned out extremely well, and we’re looking forward to future collaborations as we build on NASCAR’s momentum.” Beginning next season, FOX Sports and FOX Sports 1 will cover the first half of the Sprint Cup season and all of the XFINITY Series season. NBC and NBCSN will take over for the second half of the Sprint Cup season. The new broadcast contracts are for the next 10 years.

smarter, and then I think they all, for the most part, have accepted the old Chase and really like the attributes of the new one. A combination of those two puts us in a good place.” On whether NASCAR, in light of the fact that two drivers have been involved in alleged domestic-violence incidents, plans to add a specific domestic-violence policy to its rule book or deal with issues like that through the long-standing general behavioral clause: “What’s not lost on us, by any stretch, is the rightful heightened awareness on domestic abuse and violence, and so you can expect our policies to reflect the understandable awareness that that’s not going to be tolerated. “The past of how any league might have handled some of this is one thing. It’s pretty clear when you see what’s happening around the country and in some of the other leagues that our policy will reflect the significance and importance that it should.” On the domestic-violence allegations against Kurt Busch, specifically: “We are watching that case carefully, and … it’s under review by law enforcement and others, and they have not made a decision on that regarding Kurt. So until they make some judgments on that investigation, it wouldn’t be right of us to just intervene before they’ve even gotten the investigation completed. So that’s our position. We’ll respect their process. It’s in their hands.” On Brad Keselowski, who angered several drivers in 2014 with his aggressive tactics on the track, and what his place is in the sport: “I think he’s doing exactly what he should be doing. I’ve told him that. Everybody has got a right to have their own style of driving out there. If you go back to any of the great ones — Cale Yarborough, Darrell Waltrip, Rusty Wallace, all of them — they faced a similar discussion from time to time as they started to have success on the track, as some of those drivers believed a little bit more contact was necessary sometimes, and they were young and they were getting some words about that. “But if you go through NASCAR’s history, that’s what we’re about. I say it all the time: Late in a race … there are limits and lines, but we expect tight, tight racing that sometimes will have some contact. It’s in our DNA. “I think he’s doing a great job of being aggressive.” On the possibility of adding more races, spe-

NASCAR Chairman Brian France met recently with members of the media to discuss a variety of issues related to the state of the sport in general, the 2014 season in particular and the outlook for the 2015 season. Here are some excerpts of that session. On the 2014 Sprint Cup season and the first time out with the new format for the Chase for the Sprint Cup: “Naturally, you would expect me to think that it accomplished all of our goals, probably exceeded them, in the balance between winning and consistency. We always know in auto racing there needs to be both, but we felt strongly that by emphasizing winning on the track, we might not have had that balanced correctly. We do now. We think that that’s in a really good place. … “I don’t think there’s any doubt about the level of competition — that is up, which has our fans excited, and it has the interest level of the sport as a result of that higher, and that’s precisely what we want to achieve. “Now, I do think it’s important to say that even though the format is relatively simple, what we’re all finding out is the strategies that are associated with competing in this new format are different, and they’re unknown and untested. I think that’s going to take a while for even the most hard-core fans to fully get accustomed to.” On the chances of changes to the Chase format for 2015: “I would say very modest, modest to zero. We reserve the right if there’s a modest thing that we might make an adjustment on, but like I said, it’s exceeded what I had hoped for, and it’s done precisely what we thought we wanted to do, which was recalibrate competition, or winning rather, and still have a strong place for consistency and all the rest, but recalibrate that balance. “It’s only year one, but clearly we’re on our way.” On how the revised Chase format in 2014 was accepted by fans compared to the first time the Chase formula was used, back in 2004: “I think it’s been much, much easier, and I think some of that is we have a different communication plan with all of our drivers and our teams today, so they’re able to understand on the ground floor of any big decision that we might make. That probably was different back in 2004, but it wasn’t like we were not talking to them. “I think whatever is important, we can kind of get there together a little bit

New Site has Royal night at AC BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
GLEN — New Site had a dress rehearsal for next season, and unfortunately for Alcorn Central it went well. The Royals and Lady Royals pulled off the sweep in what’s their last go-around in Division 1-2A for at least two years. New Site opened with a 65-43 win, then closed with a 58-49 decision. Alcorn Central and New Site will be Division 1-3A rivals beginning with the 20152016 school year. • The Lady Royals used a strong advantage in the even quarters to get over the break-even mark. New Site outscored Central 38-20

Vols seek to overcome lack of experience The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee is entering unfamiliar territory. Although the Volunteers are preparing for their 50th bowl appearance in school history, nobody on their current roster has ever played a down in a bowl game. The Vols (6-6) look forward to changing that Jan. 2 when they face Iowa (7-5) at Jacksonville, Florida,
in the TaxSlayer Bowl, a game formerly known as the Gator Bowl. “It’s really huge,” Tennessee offensive tackle Kyler Kerbyson said. Tennessee’s fifth-year seniors were part of the 2010 team that lost 30-27 to North Carolina in double overtime in the 2010 Music City Bowl. But none of them actually played in the game.
That lack of postseason experience represents a major contrast with Iowa, which is making its 12th bowl appearance in the last 14 seasons. “It’s our job to continue to educate them on the bowl process,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. “There isn’t anyone who can really step up in a room who has participated in a bowl who can step up and say, ‘This is how you handle your-
selves.’ “ The Vols say they’ll be relying on their coaching staff’s bowl experience. Jones reached a bowl game each of his three seasons at Central Michigan and in two of his three seasons at Cincinnati, though he actually coached in only three of those five bowl games.

Cooper posts record stats, in chase for Heisman The Associated Press
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama receiver Amari Cooper blew past the defensive back on a deep post, and his offensive coordinator didn’t even wait until the ball was in the air to celebrate. Lane Kiffin raised his hands on the sideline to signal a touchdown. A little early — but he was right. “I guess he’s seen me do it,” Cooper said. Much of the country has by
now. Cooper has become easily the biggest, most dangerous weapon in a program normally defined by tailbacks and defense, while leading the top-ranked Crimson Tide into a College Football Playoff matchup with No. 4 Ohio State and becoming a Heisman Trophy finalist. The award will be presented Saturday night. Cooper streaked 39 yards for a touchdown midway through the third quarter to
spark a comeback win over Auburn in the regular-season finale, just one of many plays that left the Tide celebrating and opponents dumbfounded. Something no one — other than Kiffin, perhaps — could have seen coming: a Tide receiver producing 1,656 yards and 14 touchdowns and setting a Southeastern Conference record with 115 receptions. He has demolished previous Alabama marks for yards and catches.
It turned into a perfect combination of Kiffin, Cooper and first-year starting quarterback Blake Sims. Tailbacks T.J. Yeldon and Derrick Henry had to take a backseat to the passing game, at least by Alabama standards. Cooper has even trumped the numbers produced by the Atlanta Falcons’ Julio Jones, the Tide’s last superstar receiver. Cooper ranks second nationally in both yards receiving and catches per game.

line coach Steve Stripling, an assistant on Jones’ staffs at Central Michigan and Cincinnati, served as interim head coach for the other two bowl games. “Our coaching staff, obviously they’re experienced in bowls,� Tennessee defensive tackle Jordan Williams said. The time off before the bowl game should give Tennessee time to get healthy. Junior center Mack Crowder is expected back after missing Tennessee’s final two regular-season games with a knee sprain and high ankle sprain. Freshman running back Jalen Hurd also should play in the bowl game after missing most of the regular-season finale against Vanderbilt with was described as an upper body extremity injury. Tennessee goes into this game with more momentum than Iowa. The Vols
became bowl eligible by winning three of their last four regular-season games. Iowa fell short of preseason expectations and has lost its last two games. “Anybody that’s ever competed, I think, would understand we’re disappointed,� Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. Ferentz said Iowa’s goal during these next few weeks would be to improve so that it’s playing its best football in the bowl game. Tennessee must make sure it remains motivated now that it finally has earned a bowl invitation. “It’s hard not to be satisfied with that because that was our goal, to be in a bowl game,� Kerbyson said. “But we look at it as we didn’t do it in the prettiest way. It wasn’t a nine-win, 10-win season. It was a six-win (season). We just got there. That keeps us level-headed and keeps us humble going in.�

Naturally occurring mulch can be useful In December, many gardeners look forward to taking a little time off from working in the landscape, but cool weather is a good time to apply a layer of mulch. However, gardeners get some free help with the job at this time of year. I’m Gary always in Bachman awe of the job that Southern Gardening Mother Nature does mulching the landscape. If you are fortunate enough to have camellias in your landscape, you get a double treat. The flowers, of course, are the main show from late fall to early spring, but if you’re patient and lucky, you get another colorful treat. As the flower petals fall, they create a vibrant mulch from pure white to rosy pinks and bright reds, depending on the variety. Another example of Mother Nature’s mulching can be found under bald cypress trees in late fall. The plantings we have at Mississippi State University’s Coastal Research and Extension Center in Biloxi are outstanding. The summer foliage is a light-green color that changes to a golden, rusty brown before falling off in the winter. This fallen foliage creates a finely textured, feathery layer of mulch. As much as I like this tree, I won’t promote it for the normal home landscape; it just gets too big and those cypress “knees” pop up everywhere, creating maintenance issues. But if you have these trees

In December, many gardeners look forward to taking a little time off from working in the landscape, but cool weather is a good time to apply a layer of mulch. in your landscape, you can enjoy the natural mulch they shed each year. While these naturally occurring materials may not be as effective as traditional mulching products, they sure do look good in the native landscape. If you need a more substantial mulch for winter protection, you will need to add some materials. Whether you are an experienced gardener or have a brown thumb, you can mulch like a pro. Organic mulches are great in helping conserve moisture in the summer. With mulch, soil temperatures are lower in the summer and higher in the winter. Organic mulch also breaks down and helps build up the soil. Since they do decompose, organic mulches have to be replenished every year or two. Classic organic mulches include pine straw, bark and shredded leaves. Specialty organic mulches include coir chunks or pecan shells. Here are some tips that will help you mulch like a pro. Start by always removing any weeds and treat the area with a pre-
emergence herbicide before applying mulch to any part of the landscape. When applying mulch, try to keep the depth at the recommended 2 to 3 inches to help maintain moisture and control weeds. Mulching too heavily can lead to the formation of mulch “volcanoes” around the bases trees. When a thick layer of mulch is spread around the trunk of a tree several things can happen, and they are all bad. The mulch will indeed hold moisture, but it will sit around the tree trunk. These moist conditions allow the bark to decay, allowing fungi, bacteria and insects to get under the bark and cause problems internally for the tree. So if you didn’t mulch as well as you should have this summer, now is the perfect time to apply a layer to your garden. Remember, it’s only going to get hot again.

Wife writes letter to husband to clear air WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD

PICKLES
Dear Annie: This is an open note to my husband: Dear Husband: I love you, and most of the time, I like you, as well. However, right now, I am too angry to talk to you. When I exhaust myself doing “womanly” things like cleaning the moldy shower stall that you never notice, you gush gratitude. When I spend umpteen hours on the garden, you tell everyone what a terrific, independent woman you married. Then you destroy all that loving support. When I take care of repairs or maintenance to the house or car, you always jump in after the fact, pointing out how I’ve been “taken advantage of” and “spent too much,” indicating that you, a man, would have known better. When I confront you, your derision gets worse. Suddenly, I am no longer that cool, intelligent woman you married. Now I am “unreasonable,” along with ignorant and naive. So I put up with your disrespect and feel like a fool. You make hurtful remarks to our children and friends. Then you laugh and tell them how funny it is that I just gave you “that look.” Would you rather I say out loud that you are capable of being one of the most inconsiderate people I know and that
Annie’s Mailbox you are a first-class jerk? I don’t want to air our dirty linen in front of everyone, so I fold. And you think you win. But we both just lost, big time. We have been together too long for me to leave. But when you wonder why the closeness and intimacy have diminished, look in the mirror before you point a finger at me. -- Tired and Disgusted Other Half Dear Tired: You have written an excellent letter explaining how a loving husband can undermine his wife’s affection and, over time, erode the marital bond. We suggest you show your husband this letter and tell him you wrote it. We think he will want to fix this before it’s too late. Get counseling if you need it. Dear Annie: My friend “Joe” rarely showers and smells like it. I have told him gently that he needs to shower more, and he says, “You’re right. I should.” I wonder how his coworkers put up with the
smell. I have given him light men’s cologne as a hint, but he doesn’t use it. I know he has decent soap in his place. And while he shaves a couple of times a week, he rarely combs his hair. What can I do? -- Need a Gas Mask Dear Need: You have to be more direct and consider that you are doing your friend a favor, hard as it may be to say the words. Tell him, “Joe, you probably don’t realize how bad it is, but you have a noticeable body odor, and it is difficult to be around you. You absolutely need to shower at least three times a week and wear deodorant every day. It is no longer optional. You also might want to talk to your doctor, as it could be a medical problem.” You can discuss his hair another day. Dear Readers: Sunday, Dec. 14, is The Compassionate Friends’ Worldwide Candle Lighting in memory of all the children who have died. Please light a candle in the evening at 7 p.m., local time, and remember them with love. For more information, log on to compassionatefriends.org.
