District expands graduation options

“The cast has worked so hard to make this a fun and enjoyable show ... and I think they have succeeded,” said producer Shannon Sellers.

The Alcorn County school district will soon offer another option for high school students to earn their diploma.

The Alcorn School District Board of Education said Monday the district would join New Learning Resource – a state accredited program which provides students an opportunity to complete courses at a pace that best suits them on the road to earning their high school diploma.

“This will provide another option for seniors who are struggling with passing the state test. After they have taken it the second or third time and are discouraged this provides them another option to get their diploma,” said Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell.

“Most kids who have a desire to get their diploma are able to do so through this program.”

Michell said when seniors complete the program they would have the option to receive either a standard diploma allowing them to attend a regular college or a career diploma where they could attend a career college or join the military.

“Students in the program would remain in school

“Sometimes I’m a mother as well as a teacher,” said Brenda Finger, a staff member with Project Attention, where she helps children with their studies after school.

She was proud to see kids from her first year with Project Attention in 2004 become graduating seniors this past school year.

She likes to see the smiles on the faces of the children when they are learning. “I love all the hugs I get,” she said. A member of Mason St. Luke Baptist Church, she has a daughter with her husband, Daniel. In her spare time, she can often be found looking for a good sale. “I love shopping,” said Finger.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 15, 1791, the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution, went into effect following ratification by Virginia.

On this date: In 1864, the two-day Battle of Nashville began during the Civil War as Union forces commanded by Maj. Gen. George H. Thomas attacked Confederate troops led by Gen. John Bell Hood; the result was a resounding Northern victory.

In 1938, groundbreaking for the Jefferson Memorial took place in Washington, D.C. with President Franklin D. Roosevelt taking part in the ceremony.

In 1939, the Civil War motion picture epic “Gone with the Wind,� starring Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable, had its world premiere in Atlanta.

In 1944, a singleengine plane carrying bandleader Glenn Miller, a major in the U.S. Army Air Forces, disappeared over the English Channel while en route to Paris.

In 1965, two U.S. manned spacecraft, Gemini 6A and Gemini 7, maneuvered to within 10 feet of each other while in orbit.

In 1966, movie producer Walt Disney died in Los Angeles at age 65.

In 1978, President Jimmy Carter announced he would grant diplomatic recognition to Communist China on New Year’s Day and sever official relations with Taiwan.

In 2001, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Italy, was reopened to the public after a $27 million realignment that had dragged on for over a decade.

Booneville Prentiss County unemployment up BOONEVILLE — Prentiss County’s unemployment rate rose slightly for the month of October.

Unemployment in the county rose from 5.2 percent in September to 5.4 percent in October according to the latest figures released by the Mississippi Department of Employment Security.

The overall number of people employed in the county actually rose from 10,610 in September to 10,620 in October, but the number filing for unemployment benefits ex-

perienced a rise as well from 590 to 600.

Mississippi’s statewide unemployment fell slightly from 5.8 percent in September to 5.7 percent in October.

Prentiss County had the fifth lowest unemployment rate among immediately surrounding counties. Union County had the lowest rate at 4.5 percent. Lee was next at 4.9 percent, followed by Itawamba at 5.0 percent and Tippah at 5.2 percent. Prentiss and Alcorn counties were tied at 5.4 percent while Tishomingo posted the area’s highest figure at 5.5 percent.

Oxford Square’s paid parking hours to increase

BLUE SPRINGS (AP) — A new manager will take over at Toyota’s Mississippi assembly plant on Jan. 1.

The unit of Japanesebased Toyota Motor Corp. says Akitoshi Ichino will become president of the Blue Springs plant, which has more than 1,600 workers.

Founding president Masafumi Hamaguchi, who has run Toyota Motor Manufacturing Mississippi since 2010, will return to Japan.

OXFORD (AP) — People wanting to park in premium metered parking spots around the Oxford downtown square will soon have to pay for parking until midnight.

The Oxford Eagle reports that last week, the Oxford Board of Alderman approved increasing the times for paid parking from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday to 10 a.m. to midnight. The change goes into effect Jan. 5.

Parking in the affected spots is free on Sundays and most state and national holidays.

The move to increase the paid-parking hours is part of the city’s plan to increase revenue to help pay for a future parking garage. Last month, the alderman approved increasing the price of parking from $1 an hour to $1.25 an hour. That price increase goes into effect Jan. 1.

“Work will be supervised and completed in the library or computer lab on each campus.�

Approved by the Mississippi State Department of Education, the program will be funded for Alcorn County schools through Families

First of Mississippi.

Other school districts participating in the program include Tupelo, Lee, DeSoto and Oxford.

Mitchell said the program should help the district’s student dropout rate.

Lightman was indicted after an FBI task force raided his house in June, finding pornographic videos of minors on his computer and mobile phone. Agents also found evidence that he had video-recorded a molestation and shared video of a separate sexual act.

The four-count indictment could have brought a 100-year prison sentence. Lightman pleaded guilty to two counts in August.

Lightman was also sentenced to lifetime supervised release and ordered to pay $15,000 in restitution to victims. Â

Tupelo Man arrested in car burglaries

TUPELO – A Tupelo man has been arrested in connection to a string of car burglaries, reported The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.

According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, Risheco Keymon Merritt, 20, of Tupelo, has been arrested and charged with nine counts of auto burglary stemming from a case several months old.

Several vehicles were broken into in the Hatley and Amory areas the evening of Feb. 29 and early morning of March 1.

This arrest follows the October arrest of 21-year-old Deuntae Demarcus Randle of Okolona, who faces 28 cases of auto burglary.

“I have already met with the principals at each school and they are currently trying to identify students who might be thinking about dropping out of school – those would be good canidates for this program,� he said.

Students who complete the program and earn a diploma will not be allowed to “walk on gradu-

ation day with their classmates�, one of the few negatives of the program according to Mitchell. “Diplomas will also be awarded from the New Learning Resource and not from the student’s school,� he added.

Plans are to begin the program next month when students return from Christmas break.

The last part of Revelation 1:5 says: “Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood‌.â€? (King James Version) In later translations of the New Testament, the word, â€?lovedâ€?, is translated “lovesâ€?, It is a present tense verb, and indicates something that the Lord continues to do. Yes, Jesus did love us when he went to the cross, and he continues to do so today. No one loves you like Jesus loves you. No one has ever done for you what Jesus has done for you.

He willingly went to Calvary’s cross, suffered the humiliation and anguish of that death, in order to “loose� us from our sins.

Love was God’s motivation for sending Jesus to earth to die for you and me. Likely, you know John 3:16 as well as I; “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.â€? This truth is repeated throughout the gospel record. It is the “centerpieceâ€? of the “good newsâ€?. We all want to be, and need to be loved! This love is unparalleled, because it was shown, not because of our goodness, or because we were deserving of it, “But God demonstrates his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.â€?(Romans 5:8 NASB) Paul reminded the Ephesians of their sinful life before conversion, then said to them: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ‌(Ephesians 2:4,5 NASB) Love is the motivation for his redemptive work, and the blood he shed in his death, is that which washes our sins away, or “loosesâ€? us from them. The letter to the Hebrew Christians, teaches much about the necessity of blood in God’s redemptive plan. “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission,â€?(Hebrews 9:22) The superiority of the new covenant to the old, is based on the better sacriďŹ ce; the “offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for allâ€? (Hebrews 10:10) and that we may have “boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.â€?(Hebrews 10:19) We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

Corinth, Miss.

It’s beginning to smell like Christmas Rheta Johnson Columnist

The only Christmas that I can remember the smell of distinctly is about 1964, if memory serves, which it rarely does.

It’s not that I remember the aroma of the cedar tottering in its stand, or the oranges on the hearth, or the cookies baking in Mother’s old gas oven. None of those comes without some mental beck-

oning.

It is the smell of my new Barbie doll as I took her out of the small, narrow, cardboard coffin where she slept, eyes wide open in a black-and-white-striped, strapless bathing suit. The smell of that new, much-anticipated toy is stamped on my brain like a tattoo. A delicious smell, like freshly folded clothes off a clothesline, if the clothes had been made of vinyl.

She wore high-heeled sandals and a perfect ponytail, had no hips or bulges except in desirable places. Barbie was born to wear high fashion.

My grandmother made most of my Barbiedoll clothes, which were more modest than Mattel’s bought-ready-made outfits that came with an almost-J. Peterman, evocative name: Enchanted Evening Barbie, for instance. What little girl wouldn’t want that?

I don’t think most children get the same visceral thrill these days from a new toy. For one thing, they receive toys so often that every day is a mini Christmas. I doubt if the smell of freshly molded plastic is as wonderfully exotic as it was in my day.

And, yes, I know that Barbie both reinforced stereotypes and heightened female expectations in unrealistic ways. Most of us would never have that proportionately preposterous figure, or a dream house, or a dream car or a Ken who never cast a sideways look at Midge.

But, in honesty, that doll represented a rite of passage, from teddy bears and tricycles to a vicarious adulthood, one that promised hot dates and seductive makeup and shoes without anklet socks. Barbie told us we would change and grow up at least, if not to the exalted state in which she existed.

I thought about all of this on a day trip to Memphis the other day. I visited a store that smelled heavenly -- as many do this time of year -- with its candles and French soaps and essential oils that somehow seem more essential at Christmas. Smell is powerful, good or bad, remembered or fresh.

I bought a candle, a nightlight and several greeting cards before I got my nose and my wallet out of the place. Clever shopkeepers, those, courting our nostrils.

A real estate woman who sold a house for me in Georgia gave this sage advice: When you know a potential buyer is coming, put a sweet potato in the oven. She sold my house in one week. I don’t have proof that a potato had much to do with it, but I like to think that it did.

Good smells, like good voices, are powerful. Think of Ben Johnson’s voice in “The Last Picture Show,” or Patricia Neal’s in “Hud.” They are right up there with baking sweet potatoes and yeast rolls.

All of which, of course, means that a bad smell or a bad voice has the inverse effect.

We’ve all known people with chalk-on-ablackboard voices, and who hasn’t noticed when he’s in the vicinity of a paper mill? For every chocolate-covered cherry in the refrigerator door, there’s a rotten onion in the vegetable bin.

Rheta Grimsley Johnson’s most recent book is “Hank Hung the Moon ... And Warmed Our Cold, Cold Hearts.” Comments are welcomed at rhetagrimsley@aol.com.

Prayer for today My Father, may I remember that the days of my life that I give over to grief can never be reclaimed. Help me that I may not want to keep sorrow in my life, but with faith may I believe that “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”

Amen.

A verse to share Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.”

–Hosea 6:3

Pence says Trump has a mandate When Mike Pence becomes the 48th vice president of the United States next month, he will take on the role of a political lobbyist for Donald Trump’s activist agenda.

In an interview I conducted with Pence in his transitional office next to a sandwich shop in Washington, he said he believed voters gave Donald Trump a “mandate.” How can that be when Hillary Clinton won the popular vote? “Trump won 30 out of 50 states. He won more counties than any Republican candidate since Ronald Reagan, and he undeniably reached Americans that Republican candidates haven’t been reaching on the national level.”

To help Trump accomplish his legislative goals, Pence plans to attend the weekly luncheon meeting with senators and meet on occasion with members of the House where he spent more than a decade as a representative from Indiana.

“My years on Capitol Hill have convinced me that it is often the informal settings

where you can learn where the opportunities are, what challenges need Cal to be met.

Thomas The agenda we are laying Columnist out is as energetic as the man who was elected president. We have a 100-day agenda, a 200-day agenda.”

I asked about Trump’s pledges to spend on infrastructure, rebuild the military, the option of private care for veterans, paid for by the government. All of these will cost money and add to the debt.

Pence responds: “The president-elect, I think, believes everything begins with growth.” Trump, he says, is counting on economic growth from repealing and replacing Obamacare and liberating corporations from unnecessary regulations. He foresees a wave of prosperity that will not add to the debt, but produce more tax revenue, even as taxes are cut for

individuals and businesses.

He adds that in the case of infrastructure, “encouraging public and private partnerships” will reduce the cost to government.

“The president-elect is absolutely committed to scrubbing the federal budget with the eye of a businessman,” Pence said, “looking for efficiencies in every industry and looking for ways to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse and really meaning it.”

Like the issue of Boeing and the new Air Force One planes, which Trump has said he would cancel, unless the costs come down?

Trump and Dennis Muilenburg, Boeing chairman and CEO, spoke by phone and Muilenburg reportedly said he is committed to controlling costs.

Pence laughed, “Of course you can (control costs), if someone asks you to. Washington, D.C., is not accustomed to having someone in the Oval Office who actually asks people to sharpen their pencils.”

According to Pence, Trump is “passionate about

health savings accounts and the notion of giving people more ownership over their health care.” He believes “consumer-directed health care is the wave of the future. It bends the cost curve, in some cases, very dramatically.” He added, Indiana “is the first state to scale consumer-driven health care into Medicaid (which a Trump administration will propose block granting to the states) What about the “neverTrumpers” and their refusal to accept him as president?

“I think the president-elect has the leadership qualities and the strength to meet this moment in our national life,” he said.

Is Mike Pence ready to be president should circumstances dictate?

“I pray that I’m ready to be vice president,” he responds.

We’ll soon know how that prayer is answered.

Where are we now? And where are we going?

We are now in a kind of political no-man’s-land between an administration on its way out and a new administration taking shape.

Predictions are always risky -- and nowhere more so than in times like these.

What we can do, however, is assess where we are, and what some of the opportunities and dangers are.

The opportunities are many, which is to say that many things are in desperate need of changing, beginning with rebuilding our dangerously neglected and undermined military forces. The monstrosity of ObamaCare needs to be gotten rid of, not just cosmetically adjusted.

Our fundamental freedoms under the Constitution are at stake in the choice of the next nominee to become a Justice of the closely divided Supreme Court. We need someone with both the depth and the strength to resist the pressures and the temptations that have seduced too many supposedly “conservative” justices, over the years, into betraying Constitutional principles.

The current hysteria over “fake news” -- including hysteria by people who have done more than their own fair share of faking news -shows the continuing efforts of the political left to stifle free speech in the country at

large, as they already have on academic campuses.

These are just some of the opportuThomas nities the inSowell coming administration Columnist has, now that the Republicans finally have control of both Houses of Congress and the White House -- which is to say, now that they no longer have any excuses for not doing what they said they were going to do, when they were running for election.

Opportunities are of course also challenges, and few of these challenges can be met without paying a price. Will the slim Republican majority in the Senate put bipartisan cooperation ahead of the Constitution, when it comes to choosing a Supreme Court Justice based on principles, rather than on avoiding a nasty fight with the Democrats?

The same question arises when it comes to repealing ObamaCare. Democrats threw bipartisanship to the winds when it came to passing ObamaCare. Republicans who wanted to have an input on this sweeping legislation were bluntly reminded of the outcome of

the elections. “I won,” President Obama told them.

Now that the Republicans have won -- not only the presidency but also the Congress, as well as most governorships and state legislatures across the country -- do they have the guts to do what they were elected to do?

Surely no one can be unaware that one of the reasons why such an unorthodox outsider as Donald Trump won the Republican nomination, and then the election, is that Republican voters were fed up with the repeated betrayals by the Republican establishment, going all the way back to President Bush 41 and his betrayal of his bold assertion: “Read my lips, no new taxes!”

What do we know, at this point, about the people being tapped as nominees for key positions in the incoming Trump administration?

By and large, they are of a higher caliber than usual, especially General James N. Mattis who has been selected to become Secretary of Defense.

The love of rhetoric by both the media and Donald Trump has caused General Mattis’ nickname of “Mad Dog Mattis” to become a distraction from the facts about a man of both high intellect

and a great concern for the troops he commanded. He has, for example, taken it upon himself to personally visit many families of those who died fighting in the battles he led.

As a personal note, I have had the privilege of having discussions with many military people who have visited the Hoover Institution over the years, and have been impressed with officers of many ranks, including General Mattis. The young officers I have encountered are head and shoulders above so many young people of similar ages who are graduates of even our most prestigious colleges and universities.

The liberal media are already expressing worry about the number of military people being considered for key positions in the new administration. They would be worried about anyone who has not been brainwashed in the political correctness that reigns among the intelligentsia.

The key individual in any administration, however, is the President -- and that remains the key mystery in the new administration.

Backpack ministry program gets new building (The following story

by Steve Beavers first appeared in the Dec. 14 Independent Appeal. It is being reprinted with permission.)

MICHIE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Center of Applied Technology joined the fight.

TCAT partnered with the Michie community to make sure children don’t go hungry over the weekend during the school year through the Michie School BackPack Ministry.

Center members, community leaders and school officials cut the ribbon on a new 16x20 building to store items to be used in the ministry last Thursday.

“The Lord has been so faithful,” said ministry director Karen Barbee. “If not for Him working on the hearts of people, this wouldn’t be possible.”

Space had been an issue for backpack items at the school. Cans and boxes of food were kept in a coat room at the school until TCAT – located in Crump – saw there was a need.

“We learned childhood hunger is a big problem,” said TCAT Director Stephen Milligan. “It’s some-

thing in our own back yard.”

TCAT’s SkillsUSA chapter took on the project of constructing a building where more supplies could be stored.

“We were proud to have the opportunity to help,” said SkillsUSA Advisor Brian Harris. “We were able to give something to Michie and also receive something in return through this.”

The SkillsUSA chapter applied for a community project grant through Lowe’s of Savannah.

TCAT was one of seven schools in the nation to be awarded the grant.

“SkillsUSA and Lowe’s have impacted Michie School,” said Barbee.

“It’s a big deal because it gives us the proper space to run the program right,” added Michie Principal Matt Alred.

McNairy County Director of Schools Wayne Henry said many people play a part in the success of the school’s BackPack Ministry.

“It has truly been the entire community,” said Henry. “I can’t say enough good things about it.”

USS Shiloh, park host virtual Civil War lesson

BY MICHAEL WALSTON Petty Officer Third Class USS Shiloh Public Affairs

YOKOSUKA, Japan — Shiloh National Military Park and sailors from the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Shiloh (CG 67), hosted a historic, interactive video lesson for seventh-grade students of “Team Shiloh” at Yokosuka Middle School on Dec. 13.

Park Ranger Chris Mekow, broadcasting from the visitor’s center of the national park named after the famous 1862 Civil War battle, taught students military drumming commands and their importance to battle operations before modern communication technology, such as radios.

Capt. Adam Aycock, USS Shiloh’s commanding officer, taught the students that, “Soldiers in the Civil War used drums because they were the only instruments loud enough to be heard over gunfire.”

The 20 students attending – from a class arranged into a “team” that was named after ships that are forward-

deployed to Yokosuka -- each received a Civil War-style drum kit before the event, consisting of a simple tin can, drum skin, and drum sticks. Each student decorated his or her drum kit with patriotic symbols, like the bald eagle or military insignia, relishing their American heritage.

Sleepy students gathered at 07:45 a.m. with Mekow’s “wake-up call,” as he pounded his drums and recreated what it would be like for a Civil War soldier to start the day.

During the Civil War, drums were used to signal various commands to troops. Other cadences were a signal to the troops to “charge,” “fire,” “retreat,” etc. The typical minimum age requirement for battle drummers was 16 years, but the youngest drummer to serve was an eight-year-old boy named Avery Brown.

William B. Hazen, who served as a Union Colonel in the Battle of Shiloh, wrote after the war that he would select drummers as stretcher bearers during his battles. Hazen believed

they were the only men who had enough courage, steadiness under fire, and determination to go into the battlefield with guns blazing and to take the wounded to doctors.

“We found that having the students make their own drums and learn the cadences during the instructional period reinforced learning about how a commander communicates on the battlefield,” said Dale Wilkerson, the national park’s superintendent.

The students were excited as they saw Mekow on a large screen explaining and demonstrating how the young drummers commanded troops during the Battle of Shiloh. Along with the 20 students in attendance, five USS Shiloh sailors volunteered to perform alongside them. Each did very well reenacting commands on the drums, noted Mekow.

Ensign Alyson Eng of Holmdel, New Jersey remarked, “This was such a fun opportunity to interact with our Team Shiloh Middle Schoolers.

USS Shiloh sailors interact with middle school students in Yokosuka, Japan.

They all conducted a video conference with Shiloh National Military Park Ranger Chris Mekow on how drums were used to communicate with soldiers during the Civil War. I’m so grateful that they let me play the drums with them. This makes me want to learn so much more about the Civil War and our ship’s heritage.”

The teleconference was a unique experience for members of the three Shiloh namesakes, all involved, who were able to connect with the community and to learn about their Shiloh military heritage. After the virtual lesson, students and sailors practiced the “drum calls” together, having a wonderful time and connecting with their country’s history. One student recounted, “The drumming was much harder than I thought it would be! It

“We found that having the students make their own drums and learn the cadences during the instructional period reinforced learning about how a commander communicates on the battlefield.”

Dale Wilkerson Shiloh park superintendent would take me half a year to become a drummer in the Civil War.” Dale Duncan, Team Shiloh’s Social Studies teacher, commented, “I appreciate the opportunity to do this. It allows us and our students to con-

nect in a very special way to our nation’s military parks and our active-duty service members.”

USS Shiloh is forwarddeployed to Japan in support of security and stability in the Indo-AsiaPacific region.

by Cooley & Labas Financial Advisors and Garrett Eye Clinic, showtimes include Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m.

Adapted for stage from the best-selling young adult book by Barbara Robinson, the play follows the Herdman kids – probably the most awful kids in history.

After being convinced to go to church, the kids are given roles in the Sunday school Christmas play which tells the Christmas story in an nonconventional fashion.

Sellers said audiences will be treated to both laughs and a profound message.

Prior to this weekend’s public performances, CT-A hosted four performances for Alcorn County schools.

“We have been doing school shows for the past two days, and each run is better than the last,” said Sellers. “By the time we wrap this cast will have done this show 11 times in seven days.

They should be given amazing credit for that alone.”

Civitans board member Tina Bugg said the Christmas event for kids is one of the ways the club uses the funds it collects throughout the year to give back to the community.

“It’s very special. It makes it all worthwhile,” said Bugg. “It’s the reason I joined Civitans many years ago, to help these kids out.”

The Civitans president said hopes the Christmas effort will be provide happy memories for the kids and help them understand the meaning of Christmas.

“If this helps them through this year and they can look back on it and remember the day, maybe it’ll make them enjoy Christmas for what it is,” said Raines.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Staff writer/photographer Kimberly Shelton has interviewed Blue Mountain professor and Alcorn County resident Dr. Ronald Meeks.

See his story coming Sunday.

Nephew’s table manners make him unfit for company D E A R ABBY: I’m a 50-something single man living with my elderly mother.

My father Abigail passed away ago, Van Buren aandwhile the only members of Dear Abby my family left are me, my mom and my older sister, who has a 27-year-old son, “Jeff.”

They do not live with us.

My sister has been divorced for 10 years. Jeff and his parents never had a scheduled dinnertime, and they never ate together. Jeff’s meals consisted of whatever he wanted, eaten in his bedroom.

Once a week, my mother makes a nice dinner and invites my sister and nephew over.

The problem is, Jeff was never taught proper table manners. He eats like a caveman, slurps his food and holds the utensils like a 2-year-old.

It’s embarrassing. When I mention this to my mother, she gets on my case about “criticizing” him.

She sees the problem, but doesn’t want to say anything for fear of offending him. His mother sees it, too, but does nothing.

Jeff has no girlfriend or significant other at the moment, but if he were to go to any “nice” restaurant, he’d end up looking idiotic.

It has reached the point that I can no longer look at him while we are at the table because it ruins my appetite.

How can someone tactfully teach this kid how to eat and conduct himself properly? -CAVEMAN’S UNCLE DEAR UNCLE: This is a sad situation, considering how many social occasions revolve around food.

If no one ever took the time during the last 27 years to explain basic table etiquette to Jeff, you can’t blame your nephew for his atrocious manners.

You should speak to him about this -- but privately -- and ask if he would like you to give him some pointers.

However, if he refuses, you might be happier eating elsewhere when your mother invites Jeff and his mom for dinner.

DEAR ABBY: Recently, my wife and I went dancing with my friend “Dick” and his wife. While I was in the middle of a conversation with Dick, my wife kept trying to interrupt.

She even laid her hand on my arm to try to get my attention.

I ignored her and told her later

she had been rude to try to interrupt my conversation.

She thinks I disrespected her and our marriage by putting conversation with my friend above her.

This happens often when the four of us are together.

Am I being insensitive to my wife’s feelings? We frequently disagree, but we have been married 44 years. Your input would be appreciated. -- ALWAYS A LOVING HUSBAND DEAR LOVING HUSBAND: It is generally considered rude to interrupt someone when he or she is talking.

The next time your wife does it, stop and ask her what’s so important. (Could it be that the band is playing your song?)

However, if you have been droning on with your buddy for a long time, she may simply be craving some attention.

If that’s the case, perhaps it would be better if you saw Dick on a one-to-one basis without the wives around.

That way you won’t be interrupted.

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).

Among the saddest things imaginable in your book is unexpressed potential. You hate to see it in others, and it’s physically painful when it’s stored inside of you. So, what is keeping you from expressing it?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Just as food becomes much more valuable after it’s being denied, some values only become strongly relevant when challenged. You’ll be inspired to fight for ideas you thought everyone shared. It turns out, everyone doesn’t.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

One way some people deal with problems is to become skillful at concealing the difficulty involved. Stay aware of the person who wants you to think that all is well or much better. This person may really need your help.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

There are those you need to experience for a while so you can get used to the way they act. You may never understand them, but if you can predict them, then

you’ll be more comfortable and able to peaceably coexist.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Feeling in control of your time is a key element of happiness. Extremely practical steps toward better time management will help you find your smile again.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Rejection implies previous acceptance. Therefore, strangers cannot truly reject one another.

If it’s not a good fit, try to find this out early and move on. Put all relevant information on the table before you get too involved.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Everyone needs a place to feel safe. Some are safe in small places, some in wide-open spaces. People can provide the emotional equivalent of this. You recognize when people are uncomfortable and try to help.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are etiquette rules for everything. You’ll lead with your deep respect for the others around you, and though you may not do things the technically proper way, you’ll generate good feelings. That’s what mat-

ters most.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Because of your efforts to be a very clear and present communicator, you will minimize misinterpretation and misunderstanding. All of your energy is focused on problem-solving.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). At some point, you tire of trying to figure out people’s motivations. You’ll recharge in the natural world, which has the power to calm you while expecting nothing in return.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

The value you assign yourself is just an opinion, and one that, like all opinions, is subject to change. So why rate yourself at all then? Give the judge the day off, and see if you’re not a whole lot happier.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Logical and ethical behavior is the bare minimum for getting along in civilized society.

But when it comes to making friends, social efforts must reach much, much further into the realm of emotional intelligence.

Don’t worry; you’re a pro.

Inflation under control Economists anticipate that a gauge of U.S. consumer prices edged higher last month.

The Labor Department’s consumer price index, due out today, is projected to show a gain of 0.2 percent for November. Consumer prices have been mostly ticking up since March, reflecting a gradual rise in oil prices. Over the 12 months ended in October, consumer prices were up a modest 1.6 percent.

Staying true to trucks This year was one of the strongest in a decade for U.S. pickup truck sales. More than 15 percent of new vehicles sold through November were pickups, the highest level since 2007, according to car shopping site Edmunds.com.

Automakers love pickup truck buyers for the profits they bring in. So far this year, buyers are paying an average of $43,277 for a pickup, or nearly $10,000 more than the price of an average vehicle.

Confident homebuilders

second-quarter earnings today.

A key measure of U.S. homebuilders’ confidence in the housing market is due out today.

Christmas with a new boyfriend WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I have been dating “Connor” for about three months. With the holidays approaching, I’m getting anxious for a couple of reasons. One, I’m thinking of what to get him for Christmas. We really like each other, and I see this as having the potential to be a very serious relationship, but it’s still fairly new. He enjoys hiking and surfing and loves food and wine. What’s a gift that says “you mean something to me” but doesn’t go overboard? Is there some sort of chart for gifts for dating milestones as there is for wedding anniversaries (e.g., paper the first year, cotton the second year)?

The other reason I’m anxious is that he invited me to his office holiday party. He is an attorney at a successful law firm, and I’m a hairstylist. I didn’t even go to college. So I’m a little intimidated. I’ve never met his boss or any of his colleagues, but from what he says, most of them are very serious, rude and unpleasant to be around.

I’m quite the opposite of all that. Still, I’d love to support him. Is there a particular reason I should or shouldn’t go? — Krissy Kringle Dear Kriss: Sounds as if your stomach is more a bowl full of butterflies than jelly.

It’s OK to feel nervous — that giddy feeling is

Dear Annie a fun part of any new relationship — but don’t let nerves stop you from showing your enthusiasm for this man.

Why not buy him a cooking lesson or a gift certificate to a nice restaurant he’s been meaning to try? Experience-based gifts are thoughtful and fun, and sites such as Groupon and Living Social have good deals.

As for his office holiday party, go. Don’t fret too much about the bigwig colleagues.

Remember that no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. They’re probably not so bad as he says they are.

Dear Annie: There is a common theme to many of the people writing you: “I didn’t get mine.” People talk about not getting presents or thank-you cards. Some say, “A friend didn’t give me what he should have.” I checked the dictionary for the definition of “friend,” and the only mention of giving was that of support.

What do we have friends for? Is it to enrich our lives or our properties? If your

answer is to increase your properties, then you are actually looking for donors.

Perhaps a better question is, What do we have etiquette for? Etiquette seems to discard the idea that having friends who love us is enough to be grateful for. I think any tradition that does not bring us to kinder and less selfish behavior should be scrapped.

I have not checked to see who has given me a present since I was a little kid.

I don’t expect a thank-you card for anything that I’ve done because I care about a person. If the person thanks me in person, that is enough.

I don’t do favors to benefit myself (other than the obvious benefit of having friends), and I don’t invite people to be around me because I want something more than friendship. — Disappointed in Accepted Values Dear Disappointed: You make a great point. Perhaps we should be less concerned with keeping score.

But I do have to add, to those of you who might read this and think you’ve found an excuse not to send a thank-you card to Grandma: Just mail the darn thing. Please.

It will make her smile.

Aggies rout Indians at home Kossuth’s TJ Essary drives the ball up the court — flanked by Dylan Mercer — against Itawamba AHS in action from Tuesday night at the KHS gym. The Aggies won the game 61-37, while completely shutting the Indians out in the second quarter.

What’s going on around here?

It’s been an interesting start to the winter sports season.

With each new year, there are questions for every team, and this year was no exception.

In preface, I’m basing my thoughts in this article having Kent not seen a couple Mohundro of area teams Sports Editor play yet.

The most prevelant issues surrounded the status of the teams that

qualified for the state tournament last year. So far, the defending Class 1-4A boys champion Corinth Warriors are off to a 6-3 start after experiencing their best season in modern school history.

They capped their historic 2015-16 season with a sparkling 29-2 record and a state title knockout of McComb, who had won the previous two 4A titles and were heavily favored last March.

Who will be the AP Coach of the Year?

The Associated Press

The Associated Press has been selecting a college football Coach of the Year since 1998 and no one has yet to won the award three times.

Alabama’s Nick Saban could be the first.

For the first time, the AP asked its poll voters to cast a ballot for national coach of the year with a top three, in order. Three points are awarded for a first-place vote, two for second a one for third.

The voting was conducted after championship weekend and 10 coaches received support, including Saban, who

won the award in 2003 when he was at LSU and against in 2008 with Alabama.

The winner will be announced Thursday. Here are the top three vote-getters in alphabetical order:

time. But just as coach Keith Greene warned recently, “When we play our pressure defense like we can, we’re a very good team, but if we fail to do that, we’re not very good right now.”

The Warriors are learning to thrive again after the departure of six key players off last season’s championship team and don’t have the star power of that squad.

And although star power is a good thing, teams sometimes do better when good players are coherent and play as a unit.

That’s called chemistry.

The Kossuth Lady Aggies look to be the cream of the crop so far in Alcorn County, with Corinth and Biggersville rebuilding.

But don’t be surprised if Alcorn Central gives them a run for their money in division 1-3A. Of course, both teams are chasing after the favored Booneville Lady Blue Devils in a season in which it looks like anything can happen in a loaded division.

First-year head coach Craig Dailey has returned home to Tishomingo County and has his Braves squad on the right track. They have decent height, athleticism and some boys that can shoot the rock and make plays.

He didn’t really know what to expect in the beginning, and still has questions to be answered.

But Dailey has a much better idea now where his team stands than he did back in October when preseason practices began.

The Lady Braves are also playing to a higher level this year compared to the past few seasons.

Their 58-41 win against Corinth this week was their first Division 1-4A triumph in almost two years.

Coach Brian Middleton,

a former Dailey assistant at Marshall Academy, moved here after a highly successful tenure at Oak Hill Academy where he won the school’s first state title last March.

Under his guidance, the TCHS girls squad has shown marked improvement as they hope to make a serious run at the division tournament.

Coach Cliff Little lost seven key players off last years Lady Lions team and knew from the getgo this might be a long season. They’re learning and improving but are still probably a year away from making noise in the division tournament.

The Lions, on the other hand, have some firepower, and though they may not have the talent level of last years team, they are capable of making a run come playoff time.

Greg Robinson is a solid centerpiece to build around in the middle. If he can become the dominant player they need him to be night in and night out, Biggersville has a real chance to advance in the post-season.

The Alcorn Central Lady Bears have shown some resilience this season by winning two in a row at one point after a win-one, lose-one start to the season.

Coach Charlette Foster’s girls claimed consecutive victories over Corinth and Tishomingo County recently, but since have endured three straight defeats. If they continue to play hard and play together, they are capable of better things.

This is just a sampling of what’s going on around the area when it comes to winter sports.

Coming up soon, I’ll continue these thoughts and opinions on other area squads and even take a leap into soccer, where some area teams have had some success thus far.

Until next time …

Tennessee ranks third in the NFL running the ball and stopping the run; Kansas City struggles in both areas but is tied for the NFL lead in takeaways with 25.

Indianapolis (6â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7) at Minnesota (7â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6) Both of these teams are clinging to slim playoff hopes but canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get anything going. The Colts havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won more than two in a row all season, and the Vikings are 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6 since their bye. Andrew Luck turned the ball over three times last week in a ďŹ ve-point loss to Houston.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to be better against a Minnesota defense that ranks third overall and eighth in takeaways.

New England (11â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2) at Denver (8â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5) Tom Brady is coming off a 400-yard passing game on Monday night. The Broncos have the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top pass defense, however, so expect the Pats to try to get LeGarrette Blount going. Denver quarterback Trevor Siemian has more than 700 yards passing over his last two starts. Can he keep up with Brady?

Tampa Bay (8â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5) at Dallas (11â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2) The Buccaneers rank just 21st in total defense, but during a ďŹ ve-game winning streak they have allowed just 11.8 points per game and forced 14 turnovers. Dallasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; offense, which at one point had eight straight 400-yard games, has come back to Earth the last two games: 24 total points, 262 yards per game and ďŹ ve turnovers.

NUMBERS GAME

298

Pittsburgh running back Leâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Veon Bell became the ďŹ rst player this season to outgain an opponent when he totaled 298 yards from scrimmage against the Bills, who gained only 275 all day. Bellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 236 yards rushing set a Steelers single-game record and also the record for most ever allowed by Buffalo. Bell ranks third in the NFL with 1,616 yards from scrimmage despite having been suspended for the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst three games. His average of 161.6 yards from scrimmage per game leads the league by a wide margin.

POWER RANKINGS

OUTSIDE THE HUDDLE The Miami Dolphinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; playoff hopes took a hit when Ryan Tannehill sprained the ACL and MCL in his left knee against Arizona, but it could have been worse. Tannehill, who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed a start since being drafted in 2012, has a chance to return before the end of the season or in the postseason if Matt Moore can get Miami there. The Dolphins face the Jets and Bills on the road and Patriots at home to close the season. ... The Cardinals didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t escape the loss to Miami unscathed. Cornerback Tyvon Branch, who had just come off injured reserve, will go right back on with a groin injury. Linebacker Deone Bucannon (high ankle sprain) and offensive tackle Ulrick John (dislocated shoulder) could join Branch on IR. ... Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green was expected to return to practice on Wednesday.

Green has been out since injuring a hamstring in

Week 11. Green is 36 receiving yards shy of his sixth straight 1,000-yard season. He could join Randy Moss as the only players in NFL history with 1,000plus receiving yards in each of their ďŹ rst six seasons. ... Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers, quarterbacks suddenly going in opposite directions, met in frigid Green Bay last weekend, and it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t end well for Wilson. The Seattle passer had never thrown more than three interceptions in a game, and even that was only once in his fourth career start. Against the Packers, Wilson was picked off ďŹ ve times and now has thrown eight picks and only two touchdowns in his last three games. Rodgers, meanwhile, threw three touchdowns in the 38â&#x20AC;&#x201C;10 win and has thrown 10 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last four games. The Packers have won three of those to get back into the NFC playoff race.

End of the line Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a record no one really wants, and now two guys share it. The Ramsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 42â&#x20AC;&#x201C;14 loss to Atlanta was the 165th defeat of Jeff Fisherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head coaching career, tying him with Dan Reeves for the most ever. And they will stay tied for a while at least, because the Rams ďŹ red Fisher on Monday. In four-plus seasons under Fisher, the Rams went 31â&#x20AC;&#x201C;45-1 and never had a winning season. In 22 seasons as a head coach, Fisher went 173â&#x20AC;&#x201C;165â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 and reached the playoffs six times, all with Tennessee. Special-teams coordinator John Fassel will coach the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ nal three games.

Coming off ugly loss, Seahawks still have chance to clinch The Associated Press

Despite that ugly loss at Green Bay last weekend, the Seattle Seahawks are in strong position to secure the NFC West crown Thursday night.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to picture the Rams, who just fired coach JeďŹ&#x20AC; Fisher following an equally distasteful loss to Atlanta, getting in Seattleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way.

If the host Seahawks win or tie Thursday night and Arizona loses or ties Sunday, the race is done.

The short turnaround is a mixed blessing to Seahawks star cornerback Richard Sherman. He vehemently dislikes Thursday night games, saying they are a danger to player safety. But getting to forget the blowout at the hands of the Packers comes easier with another game on tap so quickly.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no diďŹ&#x20AC;erent than any other loss, honestly,â&#x20AC;? Sherman says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt any less if you lose by 20 or by two. They hurt just as bad, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a loss. It felt the same as any other loss.â&#x20AC;?

The Rams not only lost 42-14 to the Falcons, which tied Fisher with Dan Reeves for most regularseason coaching losses, but they saw Fisher lose his job the next day. How will they react? â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was tough,â&#x20AC;? running back Todd Gurley says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was tough on a lot of guys. Coach Fisher, he did a great job. He brought everybody in. We loved him as a coach.

We know a lot of other people didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But, at the end of the day, we knew what he did for us. He brought us in. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the one who

drafted me when nobody else believed in me. It definitely hit us hard, for sure.â&#x20AC;?

Seattle (No. 7 in AP Pro32) is a 15-point favorite over the reeling Rams. Doubt the coaching change makes much diďŹ&#x20AC;erence, especially against an angry bunch of Seahawks. ... SEAHAWKS, 30-10 KNOCKOUT LEAGUE TIP â&#x20AC;&#x201D; If anybody is still going in such a pool, we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help last week with the Colts. Perhaps the TEXANS will be more successful.

No. 8 Pittsburgh (minus 3) at No. 21 Cincinnati Bengals advertising tickets available. Terrible Towel-wavers grab them. ... BEST BET: STEELERS, 27-17 No. 23 Carolina (plus 4) at No. 13 Washington, Monday night
