Event shares reason for the season

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

First Presbyterian Church is being transformed into Bethlehem.

“Christmas ALIVE: A Walk Through Christmas Experience” will transport individuals back to Bethlehem where the Light of the World began to shine over 2,000 years ago.

During six scenes, 162 youngsters from ages Pre-K through sixth grade – all part of the church’s KIDS’ Quest group on Wednesday night – will show why Jesus is the reason for the season.

The free walk-through event is slated for Friday and Saturday from 5-8 p.m. on the church grounds. The experience takes 15-20 minutes to see what actually happened during the birth Please see ALIVE | 2

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — A head-on collision between a Hardin County Fire Department tanker truck and a load-

The volunteer fireman died Tuesday afternoon and the driver of the log truck from

Prentiss County died instantly in the wreck.

Christmas classic hits CT-A stage

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

Continuing their “Year of Wonderment,” CorinthTheatre Arts will present the third show of their 2014-2015 season with their production of “It’s a Wonderful Life.”

Based on the film by Frank Capra and adapted for the stage by James Rogers, the timeless classic has become as ingrained in American culture as Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.”

“It’s a play that almost everyone is familiar with.

Many have seen it numerous times and can even quote the lines,” said CT-A Guest Director Bryan Essary. “It will put you in the holiday mood … remind you how lovely, won-

derful and fortunate your life is and how great it is to have friends.”

Chock full of thoughtprovoking moments, “It’s a Wonderful Life” relates the account of George Bailey, an “Everyman” from Bedford Falls whose life hasn’t turned out quite the way he expected.

Plagued by a series of bad luck and misadventures, Bailey is on the verge of giving up when he receives a surprise visit on Christmas Eve. Descending from heaven in order to save him from himself, an angel shows George the world as it would have been had he never existed.

After being plucked from the depths of his despair,

George soon discovers that he has after all, lived a wonderful life.

“It’s a great American tale of redemption and realization,” said Phillip Henson who assumes the role of the plays compassionate hero.

“George Bailey is taken to the greatest heights and lowest depths emotionally.”

According to Essary, many life lessons will be communicated through the course of the play.

“The production reminds us to be content with where God has placed us,” said Henson as he echoed the sentiments of the director.

Anticipation is growing for the big election year that lies ahead.

The qualifying period for county and state offices will open on Monday, Jan. 5, and run through Feb. 27. County candidates will qualify at the Circuit Clerk’s Office, where employees have already fielded a number of questions about the upcoming election season.

Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell is hearing plenty of buzz about county posts, particularly several that may be without incumbents seeking reelection.

“Last time, we had the most candidates that we’ve ever had, and I think this one will possibly have more,” he said.

Qualifying to run requires visiting the clerk’s office to file a letter of intent. Partisan candidates pay a fee that goes to the respective political party.

Independent candidates must gather the signatures of qualified voters on a petition with at least 15 for supervisor candidates and at least 50 for the other offices.

The county offices to be decided include sheriff, chancery clerk, circuit clerk, tax assessor, tax collector, coroner, superintendent of education and county attorney. The county district offices to be decided include the five supervisors, the two justice court judges and the two constables.

Counties that have an elected county surveyor, such as Tishomingo, will also see that post on the ballot.

State offices to be decided include governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general, auditor, treasurer, commissioner of insurance, commissioner of agriculture and commerce. State district offices to be decided include transportation commissioners, public service commissioners and district attorney.

Mississippians will also elect senators and representatives to the state Legislature.

The party primary election will be on Aug. 4, and the general election date is Nov. 3.

Sewer department serves 6,100 customers

BY DAVID HUWE For the Daily Corinthian

(Editor’s Note: This is the fourth of a six-part series about the progress which has been made by the City of Corinth over the past four years.)

The City of Corinth Sewer Department is responsible for collecting, treating and dis-

charging to the waters of the state of Mississippi the waste water that comes from each of our houses and businesses.

Many of us have probably never considered that at the time that the city of Corinth was first established, there was no such thing as community sewage collection and treatment. Homes initially had

outhouses, which were an improvement to open cesspools and ditches for the disposal of waste.

Larger cities had collection mains that simply dumped the raw sewage into streams or rivers. However, following outbreaks of cholera in London in the mid-1800s, there was a concerted effort to de-

velop a more sanitary way to collect and dispose of human waste. The earliest sewer collection lines in Corinth were constructed in the early-1900s, and emptied into a large septic tank located along Elam Creek.

In the mid-1900s, the city built new sewer mains to Please see SEWER | 6

Live animals such as camels, donkeys, cows and sheep make the story authentic as the walkthrough experience begins with an angel appearing to Mary, the mother of Jesus.

The story continues with Jesus’ birth – portrayed by a live baby – in a stable followed by angels

appearing to shepherds keeping watch over their flock. A scene of King Herod sending out wise men along with the wise men bowing to a young Jesus is also part of the live nativity. Shepherd and angel scenes are also part of the event. “It is very important to us to remain true to the scripture,� said Grantham.

Individuals who attend need to park at the Sportsplex. The church will have buses to transport 20-25 people at a time back to the church. Once at the church, groups will be greeted in the fellowship hall and then a guide will lead them through the scenes.

Guests will receive hot chocolate as they wait for their tour to begin. Following the tour, chili and desserts will be served in the fellowship hall with all donations received benefiting the Lighthouse Toy Store.

Today in History Today is Thursday, Dec. 11, the 345th day of 2014. There are 20 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 11, 1936, Britain’s King Edward VIII abdicated the throne so he could marry American divorcee Wallis Warfield Simpson; his brother, Prince Albert, became King George VI.

On this date: In 1792, France’s King Louis XVI went before the Convention to face charges of treason. (Louis was convicted, and executed the following month.)

In 1928, police in Buenos Aires announced they had thwarted an attempt on the life of President-elect Herbert Hoover.

In 1937, Italy announced it was withdrawing from the League of Nations.

In 1941, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States; the U.S. responded in kind.

In 1946, the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund was established.

In 1964, Che Guevara addressed the United Nations; in his speech, the Argentine revolutionary declared that “the final hour of colonialism has struck.” Singer-songwriter Sam Cooke was shot to death by a motel manager in Los Angeles; he was 33.

In 1972, Apollo 17’s lunar module landed on the moon with astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt aboard; during three extravehicular activities (EVAs), they became the last two men to step onto the lunar surface.

In 1980, President Jimmy Carter signed legislation creating a $1.6 billion environmental “superfund” to pay for cleaning up chemical spills and toxic waste dumps.

In 1994, leaders of 34 Western Hemisphere nations signed a free-trade declaration in Miami.

In 1997, more than 150 countries agreed at a global warming conference in Kyoto, Japan, to control the Earth’s greenhouse gases.

mas, you will before the show is over. It’s a fantastic presentation for the whole family. ” Featuring a cast of 46, including the stage crew, “It’s a Wonderful Life” serves as a reminder of the importance of counting blessings and being grateful for the positives in life.

“It also reminds us how much impact a person’s life can have on others,” said Essary. “I think the character of Clarence Odbody put it best – ‘Each man’s life touches so many other lives, and when he isn’t around he leaves an awful hole’.”

A fast-paced production with only an hour and a half’s length, “It’s a Wonderful Life” won’t leave audiences in the dark.

“I detest scene changes,” said a very animated Essary as he bemoaned the thought of moving props and furniture. “I tried to do so as little as possible. When there is a change, the audience will have carolers as entertainment.”

“It’s a great holiday play,” he added. “The kids have loved it. We got an amazing reception when we showed it to the Corinth 8th-graders on Tuesday. They had a blast and were so responsive.

They laughed, hollered, clapped and cheered. It was so much fun. I am very pleased with the way it has turned out.”

The play will debut at 7:30 p.m. tonight.

Additional performances will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 12, and Saturday, Dec. 13. A 2 p.m. matinée will be held on Sunday, Dec. 14.

“If you have not already reserved seats, I encourage you to do so as soon as possible,” said Essary. “We are selling out quickly.”

Corinth, Miss.

The drilling bonanza

The old Republican rallying cry “drill, baby, drill” was supposed to be simplistic sloganeering masquerading as policy.

It turns out that it represented transformative wisdom. The fall in the price of oil Rich – about 40 percent in the past Lowry several months, down to less than $70 a barrel – is largely National Review the result of the U.S. drilling, and then drilling some more, baby.

Big drops in the price of oil usually accompany recessions and are caused by declining demand. Not this one. Lackluster demand from Europe and China is a factor, but the driver is the American shale boom that is perhaps the most wondrous national achievement of the past decade.

No one would have predicted it. To the contrary, experts predicted the opposite. In 2008, the International Energy Agency was projecting U.S. production would decline or remain flat for decades. Prior to the recession, the price of oil peaked at nearly $150 a barrel, and with global demand rising, it looked like it would remain elevated forevermore.

But now the U.S. is producing 3 million barrels a day more than it did several years ago. As Robert Bryce of the Manhattan Institute points out, this is like adding another Kuwait to world oil production. The Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania alone, he writes, has added another Iran to world natural-gas production.

Perhaps President Barack Obama can be forgiven for not understanding the consequence of this, given his attenuated understanding of complex market forces – like supply and demand. As recently as 2012, he was confidently asserting that “we can’t just drill our way to lower gas prices.” Drivers enjoying the $1 drop in the price of gas since May might beg to differ.

The lower price of oil is an almost unalloyed good. A recent Wall Street Journal story was headlined “Tumble in Oil Prices Spurs New Bets on Global Growth.” Who can quibble with higher projections of global growth, including in the United States?

The drop in the price of oil, and the resulting reduction in the price of energy, is a boon to consumers. The fall in gas prices puts tens of billions more dollars in their wallets.

It is a boon to the working class. Households making less than $50,000 a year, according to The Wall Street Journal, were spending more than 20 percent of their aftertax income on energy in 2012. The number had been only 12 percent in 2001.

It is a boon to industry. It reduces the costs of manufacturing and transport.

It is a boon to automakers. Lower gas prices are helping drive a surge in sales of trucks and SUVs that are more profitable for Detroit than small cars.

It is a boon to agriculture. It reduces the price of plowing and harvesting, and makes fertilizer cheaper.

All of this is in keeping with the great truth that cheap, abundant energy has always contributed immeasurably to American prosperity. That makes it all the more perverse that the left wants to make energy more expensive in its war on fossil fuels, push for evermore-stringent environmental regulations and quixotic campaign against global warming. Environmentalists rue that the decline in energy prices makes alternative energy even more uneconomical.

According to the Institute for Energy Research, “Nearly every barrel of new U.S. oil production can be attributed to the use of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technologies.” The left hates fracking and would love, if it could, to hamstring it.

The Obama administration is pushing new regulations on everything from coal-fired power plants to, perhaps soon, methane. If it had its way, it would impose a tax on carbon, and it wants to lead the world in restricting the use of fossil fuels in the name of combating climate change.

The assumption of the administration has always been that fossil fuels represent the past, when they are, in reality, powering the American economy into the future. “Drill, baby, drill” indeed.

Prayer for today My Father, may I never be content to pass by thy beautiful offerings and keep on in wretched despair. Save me if I may ‘be inclining toward misery. Give me the spirit of repose, and help me to confide in thee as I daily seek the strength of thy love. Amen.

A verse to share “Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.” Exodus 1:8

Fleeced by a flocked tree I am not easily influenced.

When Duchess Kate wears a certain look, I don’t run out to try and find a cheap copy in the same color. When Angelina gets a tattoo, I don’t shop for ink.

Never mind that I can’t afford even knock-off Kate clothes, and that I have a low threshold for pain. I value originality.

When it comes to the fundamentals, I keep my own counsel. Politically, I don’t sway with the breeze. I have firm opinions about money and religion. Internet videos rarely influence me.

Facebook bores me.

As for “home fashion,” as the magazines call decorating, I can claim to have been shabby before shabby was chic. I like to think I am somewhat cutting edge.

And yet, at Christmastime, I become a directionless whirling dervish, a copycat and a pushover for the latest style. I’m a regular chameleon when it comes to decorating for Christ-

mas.

I’ve changed my app r o a c h more times than Martha Stewart, Rheta sometimes Johnson b e c a u s e of Martha Columnist Stewart.

It’s sad to admit, but I’ve tried it all. Everything but subtle white lights, that is. I’ve never gone there. Christmas should be about children, after all, and a white light never impressed a child.

My home has had, countless years, an over-the-top, Rudolph-at-the-manger, mixed-metaphor look. The decorations are decorated.

Those antlers on the dogs might have been a bit much.

I’ve gone the minimalist route, too, cutting cedar boughs from the yard and foregoing the tinsel for a strategically placed branch of holly. I’ll admit I only tried that one year, after a

visit to England. It sure was easy to clean up after that restrained holiday.

I once decorated my tree with only bleached sand dollars. Another year the tree sported Smurfs and blue balls. Long before Duck Dynasty, I had a tree near a Louisiana swamp with a camouflaged skirt and duck hunter ornaments.

Last Christmas I admired my friend Gale’s flocked tree. Though a tree covered in “snow” made little literal sense on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, it was stunning and nostalgic. The lights seemed to glow from some distant dream in childhood, and the ornaments might have been placed by Snow White’s animal friends.

I had to have one. I wanted turquoise flocking but was saved from myself by the nursery’s failure to go there.

So this year’s tree is a somewhat embarrassed 7-foot live spruce covered in fake snow. It looks nothing

like Gale’s. The white flocking highlights the green wires of lights I’ve had for 40 years – the hot, dangerous kind. The ornaments appear to be sliding ski slopes of branch toward the floor.

Flocking also covers the rugs, the sofa and the dogs.

At a restaurant one night, I looked down at my purple sweater to see bits of white flocking, dandruff on steroids. I carry Christmas with me wherever I go.

Outside, it’s 70 degrees and the trees still have leaves. Inside, it’s a winter wonderland on a cowhide rug.

I think I can put flocked trees in the been-there, done-that column. But I can’t wait to see what I’ll try next.

There is a story now raging about a University of Virginia student who says she was gang raped by seven men in a fraternity there Sept. 28, 2012.

The woman, identified only as “Jackie,” says she was taken to a room at the fraternity and thrown on the floor, breaking a glass table in the process, which cut her arm. The men then pinned her down on the broken glass, raped her in succession and left her bleeding between the legs.

She knew two of the attackers, including the guy who had lured her to the fraternity. She got out of the place, her dress now bloodspattered. She did not go to a hospital or call the police.

She called friends, who met her and, she says, talked her out of contacting authorities because of “the social price” they might all pay. In other words, they might be shunned and not get invited to any more fraternity parties.

Rolling Stone broke this story last month in a 9,000-

word article,

by Sabrina Rubin Erdely. It got huge attention. Campus rape is Roger an extremeSimon ly serious problem Columnist throughout the United States, and Jackie’s story personalized it and made it human in horrendous detail.

But how much of it is true? Not all of it, according to stories published in The Washington Post, which found evidence that conflicts with Jackie’s account.

At least one friend who saw Jackie after the incident disputes her account, saying he did not see any injuries to her or blood on her dress. He also says that she did not claim to have been raped but that she said she had been forced to perform oral sex. The group of friends urged her to seek help, but she wanted to return to her dorm, where the group spent the night comforting her.

Forced oral sex is a hideous crime. But under Virginia law, it is different from rape, which Virginia defines as forced “sexual intercourse,” though conviction of either crime includes the possibility of incarceration for life.

But which story is true?

Or is either true? Studies

have found that false accusations of rape are rare, but they do exist.

At first, Rolling Stone stood by its story. Now it has backed away.

“In the face of new information ... there now appear to be discrepancies in Jackie’s account,” Will Dana, the magazine’s managing editor, wrote. “We have come to the conclusion that our trust in her was misplaced.”

That caused another explosion. The magazine was throwing Jackie under the bus. It was all her fault.

The outrage caused Dana to change his note to: “These mistakes are on Rolling Stone, not on Jackie.”

But Dana also wrote: “Because of the sensitive nature of Jackie’s story, we decided to honor her request not to contact the man who she claimed orchestrated the attack on her nor any of the men who she claimed participated in the attack for fear of retaliation against her.”

Oh, brother. You don’t check out both sides of a story because one side doesn’t want you to? I don’t know what that is called, but it sure isn’t reporting.

Jackie asked Erdely “to be taken out of the article” before it appeared, according to The Washington Post.

“She said Erdely refused, and Jackie was told that the article would go forward regardless,” the Post reported.

says she no longer wants to appear in the story, and instead of hearing alarm bells, you refuse?

That’s not reporting. It’s something. But it’s not reporting.

Rolling Stone is now investigating its story, as are the University of Virginia and the Charlottesville, Virginia, police.

The Washington Post’s T. Rees Shapiro has done excellent reporting on this incident. The Post talked to Jackie several times. She sticks to her basic story, though admits some details may be wrong. Erdely at first refused to talk to the Post but then later did, saying that she “corroborated every aspect of the story” that she could.

Oil takes another dip on OPEC report NEW YORK — The price of oil took another dive Wednesday, plunging to five-year lows amid mounting evidence that global supplies are far outstripping demand.

The U.S. Energy Department reported a surprise increase in domestic oil inventories and OPEC projected that demand for its crude would sink next year to levels not seen in more than a decade.

Benchmark U.S. crude slumped 4.5 percent, or $2.88, to close at $60.94 a barrel on Wednesday. Prices have not been that low since July of 2009. U.S crude prices have fallen 17 percent in two weeks and are now 43 percent below the $107.26 that a barrel fetched at its peak this year.

Brent crude, an international benchmark used to price oil used in many U.S. refineries, fell $1.95 to close at $64.24 in London.

Energy analyst and trader Stephen Schork said in an interview that he expects that the combination of weak economic news out of Asia and growing global supplies will push oil down further, to below $60, by the end of the week. “It’s the proverbial ‘trying to catch a falling dagger’ and I’m not going to try to catch it,” he said.

Liberian leader: Help needed to fight Ebola WASHINGTON — Liberia is making progress against Ebola but stamping out the final cases so the epidemic doesn’t flare up again will be difficult, President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf told U.S. lawmakers Wednesday.

In an unusual address by video to a Senate subcommittee, Sirleaf said about 10 new cases a day have been confirmed in Liberia over the past week compared with around 100 a day at the epidemic’s peak.

She thanked the U.S. for helping to fight Ebola, saying it had “awakened the world to the scope and magnitude” of the epidemic in West Africa.

But she made clear that much work remains, saying Liberia was “now in the most critical stage of response,” when complacency could allow resurgence.

“Traveling that last mile to zero new cases will be much more difficult because the disease has retreated and must now be chased down in every corner,” Sirleaf told the Senate Foreign Relations African affairs subcommittee.

Both sides gripe about spending bill WASHINGTON — Exposed to the light of day, a year-end, $1.1 trillion spending bill drew vociferous objections from liberals and milder criticism from conservatives on Wednesday while lawmakers readied a brief, stopgap measure to prevent a government shutdown both parties vowed to avoid.

Democrats complained bitterly in public about a portion of the $1.1 trillion measure that eases regulations imposed on big banks in the wake of the 2008 economic meltdown — even though 70 members of party’s rank and file supported an identical provision in a standalone bill late last year.

After a closed-door meeting, Democrats also chorused objections to separate section of the spending bill that eases limits on campaign contributions to political parties.

The White House declined to state President Barack Obama’s position on the legislation, negotiated in secret over several days by senior lawmakers, including top leaders in both parties and both houses.

CIA fights back after torture report WASHINGTON — Top spies past and present campaigned Wednesday to discredit the Senate’s investigation into the CIA’s harrowing torture practices after 9/11, battling to define the historical record and deter potential legal action around the world.

The Senate intelligence committee’s report doesn’t urge prosecution for wrongdoing, and the Justice Department has no interest in reopening a criminal probe. But the threat to former interrogators and their superiors was underlined as a U.N. special investigator demanded those responsible for “systematic crimes” be brought to justice, and human rights groups pushed for the arrest of key CIA and Bush administra-

tion figures if they travel overseas.

Current and former CIA officials pushed back, determined to paint the Senate report as a political stunt by Senate Democrats tarnishing a program that saved American lives.

It is a “one-sided study marred by errors of fact and interpretation — essentially a poorly done and partisan attack on the agency that has done the most to protect America,” former CIA directors George Tenet, Porter Goss and Michael Hayden wrote in a Wall Street Journal opinion piece.

Hayden was singled out by Senate investigators for what they said was a string of misleading or outright false statements he gave in 2007 about the importance of the CIA’s brutal treatment of detainees in thwarting terrorist attacks. He described the focus on him as “ironic on so many levels” as any wrongdoing predated his arrival at the CIA. “They were far too interested in yelling at me,” Hayden said in an email to The Associated Press.

Doctors face cuts as fee boost ends

WASHINGTON — Primary care doctors caring for low-income patients will face steep fee cuts next year as a temporary program in President Barack Obama’s health care law expires. That could squeeze access just when millions of new patients are gaining Medicaid coverage.

A study Wednesday from the nonpartisan Urban Institute estimated fee reductions will average about 40 percent nationwide.

But they could reach 50 percent or more for primary care doctors in California, New York, New Jersey, and Illinois — big states that have all expanded Medicaid under the health law.

Meager pay for doctors has been a persistent problem for Medicaid, the safetynet health insurance program. Low-income people unable to find a family doctor instead flock to hospital emergency rooms, where treatment is more expensive and not usually focused on prevention.

To improve access for the poor, the health law increased Medicaid fees for frontline primary care doctors for two years, 2013 and 2014, with Washington paying the full cost.

Associated Press

Bryant: Don’t dwell on negative things SOUTHAVEN — Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant is telling business people to “accentuate the positives while accepting reality and working to make things better.”

The Commercial Appeal reports Bryant used a luncheon speech Wednesday in Southaven to boast about the state’s success in attracting jobs.

The Republican governor, who is seeking a second term in 2015, says Mississippi had a gross domestic product of $100 billion in 2012 and has been praised as a good place to practice medicine.

Despite that, Bryant says: “The narrative you hear is that we’re the fattest, we’re the slowest, we’ve got the worst education and the worst workforce.”

He says he disagrees with the negative assessments.

Jim Flanagan, president of the DeSoto County Economic Development Council, says the area is seeing steady job growth.

State misses out on preschool funds

JACKSON — The U.S. Department of Education announced Wednesday that Mississippi has missed out on its share of $250 million in federal money to expand its fledgling prekindergarten program.

The state applied for the money in October, asking as much as $60 million over four years to boost a state-paid preschool program for 4-year-olds. Mississippi has spent $3 million a year in each of the last two years.

“High-quality early learning programs help children develop the foundational skills that are critical for success in kindergarten and beyond,” state Superintendent Carey Wright said in a statement. “We will continue to seek ways to build upon the state’s early learning collaboratives because all children in our state deserve the opportunity to get a strong start in school and life.”

Every state that borders Mississippi — Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee were among the 18 states that won part of the grant money. A total of 36 states applied.

Mississippi also did not receive funds in earlier rounds of grants, al-

though it applied in 2011 and 2013.

The state is likely to benefit from some of the $500 million in awards from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to local groups across 49 states to expand Head Start partnerships with local child care providers to take care of infants and toddlers.

Though a large majority of Mississippi 4-year-olds spend their days in child care centers outside the home, experts say not all those centers provide high-quality preparation.

“What still haunts me is the huge unmet need in place after place, places like Mississippi, where they’ve never done anything before.”

U.S. Education Secretary Arnie Duncan told reporters Tuesday in a conference call previewing the announcement.

Convention center seeks to expand

NATCHEZ — The Natchez Board of Aldermen is expected to decide next week whether to seek an increase in the local tourism tax to finance an expansion of the city convention center.

The Natchez Democrat reports that convention center manager Walter Tipton is asking for more than $400,000 for the expansion.

Tipton told aldermen Tuesday that said 13 conferences, which will house more than 500 people, will need more space over the next three years.

Tipton is proposing a 20 percent increase in the size of the center, which would include larger conference rooms.

The financing proposal calls for a 1 percent increase in the lodging tax to 4 percent plus a onehalf percent increase in the restaurant tax to 2 percent.

A 1 percent increase

to room tax would bring $166,000 while the onehalf percent increase to the restaurant tax would bring $243,000.

Kiosks help identify birding sites

MOSS POINT — The National Audubon Society and the Mississippi Development Authority’s Tourism Division have unveiled kiosks at visitors’ centers across the six coastal counties that help identify local birding sites.

The kiosks were unveiled Tuesday for the Mississippi Coastal Birding Trail at the Interstate 10 Welcome Center in Moss Point. A device also was installed at the I-10 welcome center in Waveland. MDA provided the funds for the technology, and officials see the kiosks as tools to increase tourism in the state.

Visitors and locals can enjoy the Mississippi Coast Birding Trail located throughout the lower six counties. All 44 sites are highlighted in the newly installed devices.

Mozart Dedeaux, director of conservation education and digital content for Audubon Mississippi, designed a website — http://www. mscoastbirdingtrail.audubon.org — and the corresponding kiosks.

DeDeaux said birders have known about many of the trails for a long time, but it was his job to put them on an easyto-use website.

“As a designer, I wanted the website to be simple and easy to navigate. It lends itself to interaction,” he said.

It took Dedeaux about eight months to get the system up and running. The kiosks are an abridged version of the website, he said.

It’s an interactive experience,” said Dedeaux.

“You click on the county, and that page has photos of species and a description of the nature site.

“IMMORALITY�

Immorality may be defined as, “Behavior contrary to established moral principles�. We live in a world of immorality, impurity, impurity and dishonesty. Some of us grew up in a world with different morals from what we have today. There are millions who no longer believe there is an absolute standard of morality and go about to establish their own standard of morality. Man does not possess the ability to direct his own steps. “O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps� (Jeremiah 10:23). Isaiah 5:20 teaches that man does not always distinguish between right and wrong. “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness, that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!� Those who reject an absolute standard of morality believe that it is wrong to kill if it involves them.

The Bible teaches that man was made in the image of God. “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female he created them� (Genesis 1:27). Since God created man, he also knows what is best for his creation. There is only one absolute infallible standard of morality and it is revealed in the word of God. God has revealed unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue�

(2 Peter 1:3).

Crime statistics reveal how low our morals are in this country.

Children are killing their parents, husbands and wives are killing one another and parents are killing their children. All of this indicates that some no longer value human life. Taking a human life by some means no more than killing a bug. Life is sacred because it came from God and it is still wrong to kill.

The Bible teaches in 1 John 3:15 that it is not only wrong t o kill, but to hate a brother is murder in the heart. “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.�

Before we can change the picture, we must follow two great commands. “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord they God with all thy heart, and with all they soul, and with all thy mind. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself� (Matthew 22:37, 39). When one respects and loves God, he will obey his teaching. When one respects and loves his neighbor, he will not take his life. The reason why morals are so low in America is because people have gotten away from Biblical teaching. Before the picture can and will change, we must come back to the Bible and follow it’s teaching.

Are we a part of the problem or a part of the solution?

Major provisions fill spending bill Associated Press

Top lawmakers Tuesday released a massive 1,603-page, $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill funding every government agency but the Homeland Security Department through Sept.

30. The measure also contains dozens of policy provisions affecting financial regulations, the environment, school lunches and regulations requiring truckers get more rest.

Provisions include:

Spending â– Overall spending. $1.013 trillion for core agency budgets for dayto-day operations, with $521 billion for defense and $492 billion for nondefense. That represents about one-third of the federal budget and is essentially a freeze at current levels. Another $64 billion

is provided for overseas military operations. â– Defense. Provides a base budget of $490 billion to the Pentagon, a $3.3 billion increase.

Maintaining 1.3 million active-duty troops and 820,800 reserves would cost $128 billion. Another $162 billion is provided for operations and maintenance; procurement of new weapons systems, including 38 new F-35 fighters, totals $92 billion. ■Overseas military operations. Provides $73.7 billion for overseas military operations and diplomatic efforts by the State Department to combat terrorism, including $3.4 billion to continue the air campaign against Islamic State militants and $1.6 billion to train the Iraqi military. Provides $4.1 billion to train and equip Afghanistan’s military. ■Homeland Security.

Keeps the Homeland Security Department funded at current levels through Feb. 27. Its budget will be revisited next year when Republicans are hoping to roll back President Barack Obama’s recent moves on immigration. ■Ebola. Provides $5.4 billion of President Barack Obama’s $6.2 billion request to fight Ebola at home and abroad; $2.5 billion of the total would help African countries fight the disease, while $2.7 billion would go to the Health and Human Services Department, including $1.2 billion for Center for Disease Control and Prevention efforts to stop Ebola in West Africa and strengthen public health systems in at-risk countries. ■Foreign aid. Provides $49 billion for foreign aid programs, an almost $3 billion increase. Some $6 billion would help

fight HIV/AIDS overseas, while $7.2 billion would be for economic and development programs. Israel would receive $3.1 billion in military aid; Egypt would receive $1.3 billion in military aid and $150 million in economic assistance. The Millennium Challenge Corporation, which directs aid to countries demonstrating economic and social progress, would receive $900 million. â– Environmental Protection Agency. Cuts the EPA budget by $60 million to $8.1 billion, or 21 percent below peak levels in 2010. â– Internal Revenue Service. Cuts the IRS by $346 million to $10.9 billion. Blocks the agency from targeting tea party organizations and other advocacy groups seeking tax-exempt status based on their ideology.

or pipes can collapse when stressed by ground movement, service taps, or even maintenance repairs.

To address the issue of water infiltration and failing sewer collection mains, the city recently awarded two contracts for the purpose of assessing the oldest mains and those having a history of repeated failures. The contracts will cause these lines to be mapped, tested and repaired. The end result should be a system that does a better job of collecting waste water, and a more efficient operation because the plant will not have to treat as much storm water that finds its way into the sewer mains.

This project is being funded by a $3 million low interest loan from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) and a $545,000 Community Development Block Grant received last year.

As a condition of its operating permit, the sewer department must report monthly to MDEQ on the amount and the quality of the water discharged from the treatment plant. Just this year, the city was required to change its point of discharge from Elam

Creek, just adjacent to the waste water treatment plant, to the Tuscumbia River at a point next to Hwy 45 just south of the city. To get the treated water from the treatment plant to the river, the city had to construct a new pumping station at the waste treatment plant, about four miles of 30-inch ductile iron pipe, and a final discharge and testing station at the Tuscumbia River site.

This discharge system was paid for almost entirely with a $3.9 million grant from the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act in 2009.

This year, the city also completed a rehabilitation of the waste water treatment plant. Funding for the improvements was obtained through a low-interest loan of $20.4 million from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. These improvements allowed the city to not only meet tighter EPA discharge limits, but will position the city to take on additional industrial growth in the future. The rehabilitation of the plant increased the amount of waste water that can be treated from 4.7 million gallons per day (GPD) to 6.0 million GPD. Included in the project was an additional clarifier structure that will allow the plant to eventually expand to treat 8.0 million GPD. Corinth’s waste water treatment plant rehabilitation project was recognized by the Mississippi Municipal League this year as the best public works project by cities over 10,000 in population.

In order to meet the day to day challenges of an aging sewer collection system, the sewer department has purchased the following pieces of equipment: â– TV Camera Truck

($148,003) – This vehicle allows the department to pin-point problem areas in collection mains and save money on repairs. ■Jet Truck ($282,412) – The jet truck is able to remove some obstructions and clean out pipes for better assessment of causes of problems. ■Root Cutting System ($8,289) – This accessory to the jet truck allows for the removal of roots without digging up the sewer main. ■Long-Reach Bush Hog ($46,973) – This accessory allows the sewer department to maintain easements along creeks which the main outfall lines follow. ■Service Truck ($55,254) – This truck is equipped with an onboard crane to allow crews to pull lift station pumps and other heavy equipment without the assistance of outside contractors.

Apart from equipment, the sewer department has spent about $1.35 million on repairs and maintenance of lines and easements. This included the replacement of about 2,000 feet of sewer mains.

In addition to their responsibilities related to the collection and treatment of the public’s waste water, the sewer department works hand in hand with the Mississippi Department of Health and the City Building Inspector to make sure the public does not illegally discharge waste water.

Proper disposal and treatment of this waste stream is essential to safeguarding the health of the public as well as the world in which we live and contributing to our quality of life.

carry that waste south to its first sewage treatment plant, which was located at the north end of the existing sewage lagoons along Elam Creek and south of Highway 72. While there are still a few homes that are on private septic systems or private water treatment plants, these are few and far between. The cost of running, maintaining and improving the waste treatment system is paid out of user fees based on metered water usage.

To serve its 6,100 residential, commercial and industrial customers, approximately 165 miles of gravity sewer lines have been laid throughout our city. These lines, resembling a maze on a map, range in size from 6 inches to massive 48-inch main lines. The newer lines are made of ductile iron or PVC, while the oldest lines were made of clay or concrete.

The oldest sewer collection lines date back at least 90 years in age.

These clay and concrete lines, brittle with age, are prone to cracks and subject to failures: root intrusions leads to blockages; infiltration of ground water can cause sinkholes;

Genetically modified food labels worry lawmakers

BY MARY CLARE JALONICK Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The food industry is likely to find a receptive Congress come January in its fight against mandatory labeling of genetically modified foods.

Republicans and Democrats on a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee questioned Wednesday whether requiring a label on any packaged food including genetically modified organisms — or foods grown from seeds engineered in labs — would be misleading to consumers since there is little scientific evidence that such foods are unsafe. The food industry has made a similar argument.

Congress has shown increasing interest in getting involved in the labeling debate as the food industry has faced a potential patchwork of state laws requiring it.

The hearing previewed GOP efforts to push legislation next year that would reaffirm that such food labels are voluntary, overriding any state laws that require them. The bill, introduced by Rep. Mike Pompeo, R-Kansas, has the backing of the food industry.

Even Democrats on the panel appeared concerned about the unintended effects of requiring a GMO labeling on food packages, though they stopped short of endorsing Pompeo’s bill.

Rep. Henry Waxman of California, the top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee, said he is concerned that labeling could be “inherently misleading.� Rep. G.K Butterfield of North Carolina, a Democrat

“Each option is difficult, costly, time-intensive and, at worst, could eliminate jobs and consumer choice in the marketplace.�

Thomas W. Dempsey Jr. President and CEO The Snack Food Association who represents a heavily agricultural district, said he is worried the costs of labeling would be passed on to consumers. Butterfield has co-sponsored the voluntary labeling bill with Pompeo.

Rep. Frank Pallone of New Jersey, who will replace the retiring Waxman as the committee’s top Democrat, said he was weighing both sides of the issue. “If the labeling could result in higher food costs, then maybe that’s not a risk we want to take,� he said.

Consumer advocates pushing for the labeling say shoppers have a right to know what is in their food, arguing not enough is known about the effects of the technology. They have pushed several state efforts to require labeling, with the eventual goal of having a federal standard.

Vermont became the first state to require the labels this year, passing a law in May that will take effect mid-2016 if it survives legal challenges.

Maine and Connecticut passed laws before Vermont, but those measures don’t take effect unless neighboring states follow suit. Ballot initiatives that would have required labeling were narrowly defeated in California and Washington in the past two years,

and an Oregon initiative on the ballot this year is in the midst of a recount.

Currently, the FDA doesn’t require labeling for genetically modified foods. Michael Landa, head of the FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, testified that the agency believes that engineered foods on the market now are safe. The agency has a safety review process for GMO crops but it isn’t required.

Landa said the agency doesn’t require labeling because it has so far found no basis to conclude that foods that are genetically modified “differ from other foods in any meaningful or uniform way or pose any different or greater safety concern than foods developed by traditional plant breeding.�

Genetically modified seeds are engineered to have certain traits, like resistance to herbicides or certain plant diseases. The majority of the country’s corn and soybean crop is now genetically modified, with much of that going to animal feed. Modified corn and soybeans are also made into popular processed food ingredients like corn oil, corn starch, high-fructose corn syrup and soybean oil.

Labeling advocates say the issue is about transparency, not safety.

Scott Faber, head of the national Just Label It campaign, testified that consumers want to know what they are buying and how the food was produced. He said advocates are not seeking a warning label, but a “factual, non-judgemental disclosure� on the back of all food packages that contain GMO ingredients. “Because our food choices dramatically shape our lives, unprecedented consumer interest in food is a trend that should be welcomed, not frustrated,� Faber said.

The food industry has faced pressure from retailers as consumer awareness of GMOs has increased and the conversation about modified ingredients has grown louder. The retailer Whole Foods announced last year that it planned to label GMO products in all its U.S. and Canadian stores within five years.

And some companies have decided to remove the ingredients altogether, so no labels will be necessary.

Still, mandatory labels would disrupt the supply chain, said Thomas W. Dempsey Jr., president and CEO of the Snack Food Association. GMO ingredients would have to be separated out from farm to store, creating new burdens on manufacturers, he said.

He said food companies would have three options to comply with a state labeling law like Vermont’s: order new packaging, reformulate products or halt sales to the state. “Each option is difficult, costly, time-intensive and, at worst, could eliminate jobs and consumer choice in the marketplace,� Dempsey said.

couraging tourism in all ways.

Working with local businesses, she holds quarterly business seminars and also leadership programs for students.

Other programs include a monthly meeting for young professionals, and one for retired people.

The Keep Corinth Beautiful campaign consists of three main divisions – litter prevention, beautification and starting a recycling program. Mrs. Rose was open to questions after this.

Mrs. Percy Boggan presided over the business meeting during which the minutes were approved as read.

Mrs. Eaton made a motion for the club to make a donation to the AMEN Food Pantry. This was seconded and passed.

Mrs. Boggan read a thought for the day including Psalm 50:23. After this, she adjourned the meeting.

Great expectations?

When the stock market has a great year, like last year, history says the next one is usually good. Indeed, this year has been strong. So what usually comes when great is followed by good?

Pretty good, according to S&P Capital IQ. If 2015 is another by-the-book year, look for a gain of about 6 percent in the Standard & Poors 500 index. That ’s what stocks have done, on average, in the second year after the index has an annual gain of 20 percent or more. The numbers go back to World War II. That’s comforting to those who worry that stocks are bound to run out of steam. The S&P 500 surged nearly 30 percent in 2013 and has climbed almost another 10 percent in 2014. This year’s climb is in line with the historical average of 10 percent for the year following a gain of 20-plus percent.

It’s important to note that after a great year, the S&P 500 rises 61 percent of the time in the second year, versus nearly 80 percent for the first year. The last time the market was in a similar position, when the S&P 500 surged 23.5 percent in 2009, two years later the index was basically flat.

When the S&P 500 has risen 20 percent or more, the next two years are often good.

Lululemon’s sales have improved recently, prompting the company to raise its full-year outlook in September. Did its good fortune continue in the third quarter? Find out today, when Lululemon reports its latest results.

Wife worries over husband’s past affair WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I have been with my husband for 10 years, and we have two children.

Two years ago, I found out that he was bothering a 19-year-old girl.

He was 30 at the time.

We separated over this, but six months ago, we got back together.

Now when I ask about this young woman, his story keeps changing.

He says they were just friends, and then he says he tried getting together with her after we separated.

He admits he still cares about her.

Here’s the current problem: This woman has a young child and uses the same daycare center that I do.

I see her whenever I drop off my children.

I jump through hoops to make sure my husband isn’t the one dropping off the kids, because I don’t want him to run into her.

This situation is driving me crazy, but my family members tell me I should stay with my husband because we have kids and because he quit drinking.

So do I stay and look the other way, or should I leave? -- Only Questions Dear Questions: You have another option.

For your marriage to succeed, you need

Annie’s Mailbox to know that your husband will not pursue this young woman, and he hasn’t responded in a way that merits your trust.

Because you have children, please make an effort to work on this before giving up.

Ask your husband to go with you for counseling.

If he refuses, go without him. Your doctor or clergyperson can refer you.

Dear Annie: I am a veteran. I served proudly and now have a decent job in the civilian workforce. I appreciate everything that our country does to honor our nation’s veterans and their families, from the parades and ceremonies to the business discounts and free meals.

But I often wonder why veterans are not provided with a “holiday” from work on Veterans Day to attend these ceremonies, have lunch or just spend time with their families.

To attend these functions, veterans must apply for vacation time.

Many therefore choose

not to attend.

I realize some businesses do provide their employees with the day off, but they are in the minority.

If Veterans Day honors this nation’s veterans, why can’t we change the law by giving veterans the day off without penalty? -- Answered the Call Dear Answered: It does seem logical that those being honored would get the day off.

Veterans Day is a federal holiday, meaning most government offices are closed, no mail is delivered and federal workers either get the day off or are paid for working a holiday.

Many non-governmental businesses also close on Veterans Day, but it is not mandatory.

We suggest you talk to your boss about this for next year and see whether some accommodation can be worked out.

Community theater provides stage for couple’s love story D E A R ABBY: You sometimes print letters from people who are looking to meet decent, honAbigail orable and nteresting Van Buren iother people.

While you Dear Abby have recommended volunteering, joining health clubs, going to church -- and staying out of bars -- something I have yet to see mentioned is a community-based arts organization.

Someone who is musically inclined might look for a local band, orchestra or community chorus.

But I’d like to put in a word for community theater.

A person doesn’t have to be a performer; these groups need people to build sets, make costumes, locate props, run the backstage operations during a performance, etc.

In the front of the house, they need people for promotion, selling tickets, ushering and soliciting donations from sponsors.

I met my husband of 30-plus years through a community theater group, and know of several other long-term marriages that came about the same way.

I’m a seamstress, so I have

made my share of costumes.

But I have also learned how to frame a wall and build a staircase while working on set construction.

Even if you don’t find that special someone, you will make dozens of new friends and have the satisfaction of accomplishing something at the same time. -- ALWAYS BUSY IN DES MOINES DEAR ALWAYS BUSY: I love your suggestion.

Not everyone is meant to be in front of the footlights, but that doesn’t mean one can’t be an important member of the team.

And community theater is definitely a team effort.

DEAR ABBY: I find my wife’s daughter and son-in-law, who live nearby, to be very unlikable.

Her daughter is gossipy, arrogant, smug and superficial.

The husband is ill-mannered, devoid of social skills, lazy, impossible to carry on a normal conversation with and, worst of all, a liar.

Naturally, I am expected to see them often, and the more I am around them, the less I like them.

This has become apparent to my wife.

We have had more than a few “spirited discussions” about it, which I view as a real threat to the long-term well-being of our

marriage.

I have tried mightily for her sake to overlook their major personality and character flaws, with no success.

I don’t want another divorce.

Please help. -- DESPERATE IN THE MID-ATLANTIC DEAR DESPERATE: If you love your wife and don’t want this marriage ruined, accept that you are going to have to accommodate to some degree her insufferable daughter and son-in-law.

This does not mean you must love them or even enjoy their company.

It does mean working out a compromise that includes spending some time with them.

You and your wife are not joined at the hip.

Every visit doesn’t have to include you.

Take up some hobbies you can enjoy on your own.

Develop a sense of humor where they are concerned.

If you do, you won’t force your wife to choose between you and her child, because the chances are you would lose.

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). If you’re brave enough to share a truly new idea, expect it to be misunderstood, at least at first.

That’s just what comes with being cutting-edge. Persist.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Remember that time when you spent hours on a project or pitch that eventually fell through?

Well, the lessons you learned from that experience are what make today’s work pleasurable and profitable.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’re in danger of taking too much responsibility for things that are ultimately not in your control. Think of yourself as a counselor of a situation or transaction -- there to help things along, not to make the ultimate decision.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

When you were younger, you idolized those you admired. Maturity has lessened the height of the pedestal, but you still elevate your favorite people. Why? There is a similar talent or qual-

ity inside you. Believe it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The person who sees what could go wrong may be a downer, but they will sometimes have very good advice. Take today’s small problem seriously, and it will never have a chance to become a big problem.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There’s a broken thing in your world that is fast becoming an energy-suck. By taking care of it, you are blessing it and rebirthing it as a vessel of sharing and connection.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Maybe it’s not officially your job to provide protection, comfort and shelter from the harshness of the world, but you take on the role anyway to great success.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

When you take action, it doesn’t always look like action at first. In fact, it looks more like a person sitting and staring into space.

But if you can feel it and think it through, you can see it through.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Your instinct for business is keen, and it’s time to close the deal. When you listen to everything that is said and how it is said, you’ll gain the edge in negotiations.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re like an investigative reporter now, asking all of the right questions, determined to get a straight answer. You may not get the whole story today, but it will come out by the weekend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Your feelings, whatever they may be, are acceptable -- so accept them. You don’t have to think they are optimal, comfortable or even appropriate. Just accept them so you can move on through.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

The happy people you know may bring up interesting feelings and thoughts for you today. Look deeper into this. Perhaps this is the first pang of desire turning you onto something new to go after.

CAN’T MISS MATCHUPS Broncos (10–3) at Chargers (8–5)

In Week 8, Denver rolled to a 35–21 victory over AFC West rival San Diego. Peyton Manning had a typically flawless game, completing 25-of-35 passes for 286 yards, three TDs — with all three going to Emmanuel Sanders — and zero INTs for a 124.2 passer rating.

Manning made waves in his postgame press conference, criticizing the Broncos’ scoreboard operator, who irked Manning by getting the crowd fired up while Denver was on offense. Crowd noise shouldn’t be an issue this week in San Diego, where the Chargers have struggled to create an electric home atmosphere.

49ers (7–6) at Seahawks (9–4)

Panthers quarterback Cam Newton made the most of his one season at Auburn, striking the Heisman pose and winning the BCS national title.

Seattle shined in the Thanksgiving nightcap, beating San Francisco, 19–3, just two weeks ago. Niners quarterback Colin Kaepernick struggled, in particular, completing just 16-of-29 passes (55.2 percent) for a season-low 121 yards, zero TDs and two INTs for a season-low 36.7 passer rating. Circumstances have only gotten worse for the 49ers, who lost 24–13 to the lowly Raiders last week. Over the past two weeks, Kaepernick has passed for a combined 295 yards, one TD and four INTs while taking nine sacks for 44 lost yards in two defeats. Kaepernick’s worst games have historically come at Seattle, where he has an 0–3 record with two TDs, six INTs and two lost fumbles.

Cowboys (9–4) at Eagles (9–4)

This Sunday night fight is a rematch of the Thanksgiving leftovers from two weeks ago, when Philly ran over Big D, 33–10. The Eagles opened with TD drives of 80 and 88 yards, as Mark Sanchez appeared to be in total control of Chip Kelly’s offense. Sanchez struggled in a 24–14 loss to Seattle, passing for 96 yards in defeat. In a strange split stat, since Week 7 teams are 0–7 the week after playing the Seahawks, a team known for its physicality. The status of Nick Foles is unknown following a fractured collarbone suffered in early November. On the other side, Dallas’ Tony Romo continues to play through a rib injury. How severe the ailment is and how it has been reported is a matter that may result in a fine from the league office.

OUTSIDE THE HUDDLE St. Louis coach Jeff Fisher subtlety trolled Washington prior to kickoff of a 24–0 Rams road win. Fisher named Stedman Bailey, Michael Brockers, Janoris Jenkins, Alex Ogletree, Greg Robinson and Zac Stacy as team captains for the pregame coin toss. It was no coincidence that those are six players acquired as part of the blockbuster Robert Griffin III trade between St. Louis and Washington in 2012. … Eagles coach Chip Kelly was rumored to be a candidate for the coaching vacancy at the University of Florida — a job that ultimately went to Jim McElwain. But Kelly, who posted a 46–7 record as the coach at the University of Oregon from 2009-12, was in no hurry to go back to college. “I don’t think our pro offense would work at the college level,” he joked.

… Titans rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger is done for the season after suffering an AC joint separation in his right shoulder. … Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has been doing his signature “Superman” TD celebration for years. But the Saints didn’t care about that when Newton did his move after scoring to give Carolina a 17–0 lead.

New Orleans linebacker Curtis Lofton saw it as “disrespectful” and started a minibrawl between the two teams, resulting in the ejection of Carolina tight end Brandon Williams from the 41–10 Panthers win. …

Patriots coach Bill Belichick was not impressed by the Chargers fans — or lack of fans — at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego.

“There was a sea of Patriots fans right behind our bench,” he told the Boston Globe.

“It was almost like a college game in a neutral site where one side of the field is one team and the other side is the other team.”

Bay Area Banter The Oakland Raiders pulled off a shocking 24–13 upset win over the San Francisco 49ers in a battle of the Bay Area. During pregame warmups, Raiders owner Mark Davis was seen talking to 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh — who has been at the center of controversy, most recently swirling trade rumors involving the Silver-and-Black. So what were Davis and Harbaugh laughing about at midfield prior to kickoff? “I told him, ‘You stole our dysfunction!’” joked Davis, who inherited the Raiders from his Hall of Fame father, Al Davis. “That’s supposed to be our thing!”

Texans’ Clowney has microfracture knee surgery The Associated Press

HOUSTON — Houston’s Jadeveon Clowney, the top overall pick in this year’s draft, had microfracture surgery on his right knee.

General manager Rick Smith said Clowney had the surgery on Monday.

The Texans said last week that Clowney would have season-ending knee surgery, but did not specify what that surgery would be.

This surgery was the second this season for the

outside linebacker. He had arthroscopic surgery on the same knee after being injured in Week 1.

He played three games since the first procedure but continued to struggle with pain and swelling in his knee.

He saw his most extensive action of the season Jadeveon Clowney against the Bengals on Houston Texans Nov. 23, when he was in for about 50 plays and had three tackles, including swelling in his knee after one for a loss. that and missed his eighth But he experienced game of the year a week

later.

He last spoke to the media on Thanksgiving, when he revealed he was still in a lot of pain and that dealing with this injury has been difficult and frustrating for him.

“It’s very tough knowing my ability and how I can play but that my knee won’t let me,” he said then. “That’s the hard part about it that my knee keeps me from doing a lot of things I was doing before I got hurt.”

Clowney has had a tough time since Houston took him with the No. 1 overall pick, eager to put him on a defense already featuring rush specialist J.J. Watt. He left a dual practice Aug. 20 after a helmet-to-helmet hit with Denver Broncos tight end Jacob Tamme and missed the Texans’ final two preseason games, but said he passed the NFL protocols for head injuries in just over a week.

He had to sit out the be-

ginning of camp, too, after offseason surgery to repair a sports hernia.

The Texans drafted Clowney after a three-year career at South Carolina in which he had 130 tackles, 24 sacks, 47 tackles for losses and 20 quarterback pressures.

He also caused a schoolrecord nine fumbles and deflected seven passes.

The 6-foot-5, 266-pound Clowney also set a school record with 13 sacks in 2012.

BIGG Classic set for third edition

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

BIGGERSVILLE — Cliff Little could make a few changes to the lyrics of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”.

Biggersville High School will play host to eight games, featuring 12 different schools and four double entries Saturday in the 3rd BIGG Christmas Classic.

“We’ve had competitive games and a good turnout every year,” said Little. “Evidently I like being up at the school all day on that particu-

lar Saturday.”

Play will begin at 9 a.m., with the eighth and final game scheduled for a 7:30 tip.

Admission is $7 for adults, $5 for students K-12.

Children under four will be admitted free. MHSAA state and district passes will be honored.

Ashland, Booneville, West Point and Biggersville have both genders scheduled to play. All told, 12 Northeast Mississippi schools are in the field.

“Teams jumped in pretty

quick,” said Little. “I’m excited as it should be some good local basketball.”

Alcorn Central and Corinth are also entered in boys’ contests. The Golden Bears face Ashland at 10:30 a.m., while Corinth closes against Southaven.

It will be the Warriors third game against a DeSoto County school in as many BIGG Classics. CHS faced DeSoto Central in 2012 and Horn Lake in 2013, winning both games.

“That should be a good

game to close with,” said Little.

The Biggersville girls will face West Point at 3, with the Lions facing off with Nettleton in the next-to-last contest.

The defending Class 3A champion Booneville Lady Devils and the reigning Class 4A North champion Shannon Red Raiders are also included in the event.

“The local support we’ve had has been great,” said Little.

“I really appreciate them helping us host this event.”

Extension for Jones includes buyout increase The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee coach Butch Jones’ contract extension increases the buyout he would have to pay if he chooses to leave before the end of the next two seasons.

Under terms of the contract addendum released Wednesday, Jones would owe the university $4 million if he chose to leave before March 2016.

He’d owe $3 million if he opted to leave between March 1, 2016, and Feb. 28, 2017. He would owe $2 million if he chose to depart from March 1, 2017, to Feb. 29, 2020.

Jones’ original contract called for him to pay $3 million if he chose to leave before March 2016 and $2 million if he left before March 2019.

Tennessee announced Monday it was extending Jones’ contract through 2020 and increasing his annual pay to $3.6 million.

NFL owners approve new conduct policy The Associated Press

IRVING, Texas — NFL owners unanimously approved changes to the league personal conduct policy Wednesday, but Commissioner Roger Goodell will retain authority to rule on appeals. A special counsel for investigations and conduct will oversee initial discipline, Goodell said.

“This will be a highly qualified individual with a criminal justice background hired as soon as possible for the newly created position,” Goodell said. “The person will oversee our investigations and decide the discipline for violations of the policy.” The commissioner also may appoint a panel of independent experts to participate in appeals.

After the Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson cases, a

more extensive list of prohibited conduct will be included in the policy, as well as specific criteria for paid leave for anyone charged with a violent crime. A suspension of six games without pay for violations involving assault, sexual assault, battery, domestic violence, child abuse and other forms of family violence will be in effect, but with consideration given to mitigating or aggravating circumstances.

“The policy is comprehensive. It is strong. It is tough.

And it better for everyone associated with the NFL,” Goodell said.

The players’ union has sought negotiations with the NFL on any revamping of the policy, and said Tuesday it would “reserve the right to take any and all actions” should the owners act uni-

laterally. The union could consider Wednesday’s vote by the owners as a violation of the collective bargaining agreement reached in 2011, giving the union cause to file a grievance.

Among the union’s options is pursuing an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board.

The players could argue this policy is a change in terms and conditions of employment; the National Labor Relations Act says such changes in unionized situations are subject to collective bargaining.

“We expected today’s vote by the NFL owners from before Thanksgiving,” NFL Players Association spokesman George Atallah said on Twitter. “Our union has not seen their new policy.”

That new policy will include a conduct committee made up of several team owners that will review the policy at least annually and recommend appropriate changes. That committee will seek advice from outside experts, the NFL said.

Members of the committee will be Arizona Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill as the chairman; Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank; Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt; Dee Haslam, the wife of Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam; Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Charlotte Jones Anderson, chairwoman of the NFL Foundation; Chicago Bears owner George McCaskey; Houston Texans owner Robert McNair; and two former Please see POLICY | 13

NFL players who have a stake in NFL team ownership, Warrick Dunn of the Falcons and John Stallworth of the Steelers.

NFL general counsel Jeff Pash said Wednesday in a conference call that “it was a mistake in the past” to rely solely on the criminal justice system for looking into legal issues. And he said the commissioner’s role in handing out discipline is not subject to collective bargaining.

Last month, an arbitrator threw out Rice’s indefinite suspension by the NFL for hitting his then-fiancee in a hotel elevator, freeing him to play again.

Former U.S. District Judge Barbara S. Jones said Goodell’s decision in September to change Rice’s original suspension from two games to indefinite was “arbitrary” and an “abuse of discretion.”

After noting the twogame suspension given to Rice was insufficient, Goodell had changed the minimum punishment under the personal conduct policy to six games.

After a video of the punch became public, Rice was released by the Ravens and Goodell suspended him indefinitely.

Rice and the union contended he was essentially sentenced twice, and Jones agreed, saying Rice “did not lie to or mislead the NFL.”

Up and down Georgia aims for top 10 finish The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Although Georgia fell short of its goal of reaching the College Football Playoff, Bulldogs coach Mark Richt says there is still a chance to end an “up and down season” on a high note.

“We have a chance to finish in the top 10 in the country, which is where I think a lot of people would like to be,” said Richt, now in his 14th season at Georgia.

That first means the 12th-ranked Bulldogs (93, 6-3 SEC) would need to beat No. 20 Louisville (9-3, 5-3 ACC) on Dec. 30 in the Belk Bowl.

Richt and Louisville coach Bobby Petrino were on hand Wednesday in Charlotte to promote the game, which will be the first ever between the two schools.

It’s also the first time in its history the Belk Bowl will feature two teams ranked in the top 20.

Georgia has certainly had its highs and lows this season.

They defeated thenNo. 16 Clemson 45-21 to open the season, only to lose to then-No. 24 South Carolina in the next game.

There was a 34-0 win over then-No. 23 Missouri, only to fall 38-20 to an unranked Florida team, a game in which the Bulldogs inexplicably

got steamrolled by Gators ground attack.

Running back Todd Gurley looked like a Heisman Trophy candidate before an injury and later off-the-field problems sidelined him for the season. Richt said Gurley is expected to attend the game with his teammates but won’t play.
