Building ready for renovation BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

“Only half of the truck was in the roadway ... One of the city employees had just got back into the truck after picking up some leaf bags placed on the side of the road,” said

A dormant Cruise Street building is set to get renovations for upstairs apartments and possibly ground-level retail space. The new owner of the property at 509 Cruise Street, Chris Tays, gained a certificate of appropriateness from the Corinth Historic Preservation Commission on Thursday for the proposed modifications to the building. It has been vacant for years, and much of the bottom portion is covered with boards. Tays said he definitely plans for the renovation to include two apartments upstairs. He is still considering plans for the downstairs space. The city is pleased to see someone invest in the property, which has developed some safety issues. In 2013, the commission had pursued demolition by neglect action against a former owner. Tays “is tearing down and replacing the existing deteriorated brick around the windows and redoing the brick trim around the windows,” said Building Inspector Greg Tyson. The storefront, with black

Two years ago, 67-year-old Danny Boatman started a new career. The long time co-owner of The Phone Booth joined the team at Corinth’s newest financial institution, FMBank. “I got offered the job because I had a lot of contacts in the area through my business,” he said. “They wanted to try to build up the commercial loans ... it’s been pretty amazing here, learning a lot about a new industry has been fun.” Married to Jackie for 16 years, he has two grown children, Amy Davis and Cathleen Boatman. A member of Trinity Presbyterian Church, Boatman loves to duck hunt. “Lack of rain has really hurt hunting locally,” he said. “I have been to Arkansas recently and had a lot of luck.”

Michie McNairy County man killed in crash

Today is Friday, Dec. 23, the 358th day of 2016. There are eight days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 23, 1941, during World War II, American forces on Wake Island surrendered to the Japanese.

On this date: In 1788, Maryland passed an act to cede an area “not exceeding ten miles square” for the seat of the national government; about 2/3 of the area became the District of Columbia. In 1823, the poem “Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas” was published in the Troy (New York) Sentinel; the verse, more popularly known as “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas,” was later attributed to Clement C. Moore. In 1893, the Engelbert Humperdinck opera “Haensel und Gretel” was first performed in Weimar, Germany. In 1913, the Federal Reserve System was created as President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act. In 1928, the National Broadcasting Company set up a permanent, coast-to-coast network. In 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt restored the civil rights of about 1,500 people who’d been jailed for opposing World War I. In 1948, former Japanese premier Hideki Tojo and six other Japanese war leaders were executed in Tokyo.

MICHIE, Tenn. – A McNairy County man was killed in a onevehicle wreck on Tennessee State Highway 22. Jason W. Schlesser, 32, of Michie, died from injuries sustained in the crash which happened around 3:30 a.m. Friday, according to the Tennessee Highway Patrol. Schlesser was the traveling north on Highway 22 when he lost control of his 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix while negotiating a curve. The vehicle veered off the roadway and overturned,

Corinth, Miss.

Change coming to HHS In a new Wall Street Journal/NBC poll, more than half of respondents, 52 percent, said that Donald Trump will either not change the way business is done in Washington or will bring the “wrong Star kind of change.” This may sound negative, Parker but the fact that 48 percent Columnist believe positive change will occur points toward a meaningful note of hope and optimism. With the nomination of highly motivated reformers, like Rep. Tom Price to head up the largest department in the federal government, Health and Human Services, we should feel hopeful. But history and experience should also keep us sober. Change in Washington is very hard. President Reagan pledged to close down the departments of energy and education. But both departments survived and spending today for both departments is higher today than when Reagan took office When President George W. Bush was reelected in 2004, he placed reform of Social Security front and center in his campaign. He devoted almost one-quarter of his state of the union address in 2005 discussing the importance of reforming Social Security. Yet, despite his Republican Party controlling both houses of congress, President Bush failed in his efforts to reform Social Security. The point is not to be cynical but to stay in touch with reality. There is a joke that government programs are like nails without heads. Once they are put in it’s almost impossible to pull them out. HHS, where Rep. Price is headed, has 72,000 employees and a budget of almost $1.1 trillion. It consumes one-quarter of the federal budget and is twice the size of the defense department, the second largest department in the federal government. From 1970, HHS has grown by a factor of 10, from $103 billion to $1.1 trillion. The lion’s share of this budget is Medicare and Medicaid, but it also includes the whole array of welfare and anti-poverty programs, including Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, Head Start and Low Income Energy Assistance Program. These are operated through 19 different offices and 529 different subsidy programs. All of these programs are in great need of reform. Most have been around for years. Medicare and Medicaid go back to the 1960s and still operate basically the same way today as 50 years ago, despite dramatic changes in the country and technology. Projections show spending on these two programs, coupled with Obamacare, doubling over the next 10 years, taking an increasing percentage of our GDP. Who ever heard of a business that doesn’t change how it operates over half a century? In contrast, American Enterprise Institute economist and blogger Mark Perry reports that only 12 percent of the Fortune 500 firms that are on the list today were on it in 1955. Change and competition wash out the old and bring in the new, including among the biggest corporations in the world. Yet Medicare, which in total spending is about the same size as Wal-Mart, the largest corporation on the Fortune 500 list, is doing business essentially the same way today as it did a half century ago. Rep. Price wants major reform in all these health care and welfare programs. These are badly needed reforms, as our economy is becoming increasingly weighed down by excessive and wasteful government. But there is no internal mechanism in government entities to self-adjust, as there is in business and a free market. The opposite is true. Every program spawns armies of special interests that fight change and mobilize to protect the status quo. It’s why there should be great resistance to starting these programs to begin with. Great ideas are on the table for how to reform these massive programs. But a very tough fight lies ahead. Star Parker is an author and president of CURE, the Center for Urban Renewal and Education. Contact her at www.urbancure.org.

Prayer for today Heavenly Father, I pray that thou wilt reverse my standards of life if I may be striving only for selfish gain. May I care for all that I could be, and may I care for where I should be found, but, most of all, may I care for what I really am. Help me to keep my mind on thee that I may find delight in doing thy will. Amen.

A verse to share But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship. —Galatians 4:4-5

Political rules changed in 2016 Over the 40-some years that I have been working or closely observing the political campaign business, the rules of the game haven’t changed much. Technology has changed the business somewhat, but the people who ran campaigns in the 1970s could have (and in some cases actually have) run them four decades later. But this year, the rules seemed to change. Let me try to count the ways. 1) Money doesn’t seem to matter so much anymore. “Money is the mother’s milk of politics,” the legendary California Assembly Speaker Jesse Unruh said a half-century ago. But some winning campaigns this year operated on what Unruh might have regarded as lowlactose diets, notably Donald Trump’s. The Trump campaign spent only slightly more than half as much as the Hillary Clinton campaign but won nearly a third more electoral votes. And that’s not counting the spending of super PACs supporting the Democrat. Sure, after 13 years of “The Apprentice,” Trump had the advantage of celebrity, which helped him get the lion’s share of cable coverage during the primary season. But he used the spotlight to make arguments and advance policies that won

votes. Clinton spent most of August fundraising in rich people’s homes. But Michael what she Barone did with her haul didn’t Columnist swing many votes. 2) TV spots don’t matter so much anymore, either. In the 1970s, campaigns ran ads because it was the best way to reach voters. There were only three networks, and you could “roadblock” them with spots that almost no one could avoid seeing. So many gross rating points produced so many votes. Today old-line network audiences are a fraction of what they used to be, and technology allows people to skip TV ads altogether. A zero-cost tweet can get more attention than a $10 million TV ad barrage, and a YouTube video can earn more votes than a TV ad. A corollary is that the Democrats’ obsession with the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, which allowed corporate political communications, is utterly beside the point. Visible corporations don’t want to take partisan sides -- or if they do, their public relations departments opt for political correctness.

3) Celebrities don’t count. Did anyone vote for Clinton because Beyonce and Lady Gaga did concerts for her? The money ferrying such celebs to Clinton event venues was totally wasted. 4) Outrageous statements aren’t disqualifying. The Clinton campaign spent the bulk of its ad budget on spots decrying Trump’s character, and this bombardment was augmented by mainstream media expressing horror about his latest outrage. But voters didn’t much mind. As Salena Zito, the reporter most alert to Trump’s appeal, wrote, “the press takes him literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally.” Many voters are tired of being told they can’t say things that are politically incorrect. They don’t mind -- in fact, they rather like it -- when candidates do. 5) Polling and big data don’t automatically generate the right moves. Campaign strategists have used polls to shape messages since the 1960s, often shrewdly. But poll interpretation is not a science but an art. The Clinton campaign didn’t notice its candidate’s weakness in the counties outside metropolitan areas, because those areas are just one subgroup in statewide polls. Big data interpretation must be combined with what

German military thinkers called Fingerspitzengefuhl, or fingertip feeling. The Clinton campaign had scads of data in its New York headquarters but was so rigid in its application that it ran more late-campaign TV ads in Omaha (for Nebraska’s 2nd District’s one electoral vote) than in Wisconsin and Michigan (26 electoral votes). 6) Not being able to understand how the opposition thinks is hugely dangerous. This is actually an old rule, but one in particular need of reiteration in a year when most of the old rules no longer apply. The Trump campaign seems to have had a pretty good idea of what its Republican opponents and the Clinton campaign were up to, but the reverse was clearly not true. In postelection interviews, Clinton campaign operatives were blaming their defeat on racism, the FBI director and the Russians. Mature adults would be seeking to understand how they failed to see how the rules were changing.

Health care is a life or death issue BY JOE CONASON Guest Columnist

Not long ago, Americans learned that the average life expectancy for white people in this country -- those most likely to have voted for Donald Trump -- actually declined for the first time in many years. The pathologies and frustrations believed to have driven that decline may have motivated the handful of votes that gave Trump his Electoral College victory. But not long after their euphoria over his inauguration fades, they are going to learn why his administration is so likely to drive those statistics in the wrong direction. Despite his promises to protect Social Security and Medicare -- and his vow to replace the Aﬀordable Care Act with “something much better” -- Trump’s cabinet appointees and his allies in Congress plan ruinous changes to those programs. And that will mean ruin, and in thousands of cases death, for the mostly white and working-class people who depend so heavily on them. Unless the Republicans come up with a plausible bill to replace Obamacare,

which has eluded them since 2009, millions of their constituents will lose the health insurance they have only recently gained -- and yes, thousands of those people will die next year. Back when the president’s health reform plan first passed, Republicans and their media echoes warned loudly about mythical “death panels” embedded in his legislation. Now, the voters who believed that nonsense are about to meet the real death panels, led by House Speaker Paul Ryan, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and Rep. Tom Price, the Georgia Republican slated to head the Department of Health and Human Services. This is not hyperbole: Before the advent of Obamacare, tens of thousands of uninsured Americans died every year because they didn’t receive timely care. Ten years ago, one reputable study estimated that as many as 137,000 Americans had perished prematurely due to lack of health coverage between 2005 and 2010, or more than twice as many as died in the Vietnam War.

The Institute of Medicine has estimated that uninsured adults are 25 percent more likely to die prematurely than those with coverage, with uninsured adults between 55 and 64 years old faring even worse. For them, being uninsured is the third most significant cause of death, behind only heart disease and cancer. Those estimates don’t include the victims of insurance company profiteering who will die if the repeal of Obamacare undoes its protection of patients suﬀering from “previously existing conditions.” Exposed to the tender mercies of corporate actuaries, thousands of them will lose their coverage, watch their families driven to destitution, and many of them will die, too. That isn’t supposed to be what happens under President Trump, who declared in many interviews and debates his determination to provide better and cheaper health insurance “for everybody. Let it be for everybody.” But by appointing a far-right ideologue like Price to run health policy, Trump eﬀectively violated that

promise before even taking his oath of oﬃce. Working with Ryan and the Republican majority in both houses of Congress, Price means to destroy Obamacare, slash Medicare and decimate Medicaid. The truth about the current incarnation of the Republican Party, which voters ought to have learned long ago, is that its attitudes toward working Americans of all descriptions range from careless to merciless. If not every Republican shares the “let ’em die” position on health care screamed by a GOP debate audience in 2012, all too many believe that government has no role in ensuring that every American is insured -- even though that would save money and lives. However ridiculous Donald Trump’s promises may seem, his pledge to protect Americans who depend on Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid is a matter of life or death. Unless he changes course now, we may see a lot of red caps at funerals for people who lost their insurance and died much too soon.

BY JULIE PACE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday abruptly called for the United States to “greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability” until the rest of the world “comes to its senses” regarding nuclear weapons. His comments on Twitter came hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin said strengthening his country’s nuclear capabilities should be a chief military objective in the coming year. The president-elect’s statement also followed his meetings a day earlier with top Pentagon oﬃcials and defense contractors. Trump, who is spending the holidays at his palatial private club in Florida, did not expand on the actions he wants the U.S. to take or say why he raised the issue Thursday. Spokesman Jason Miller said the presidentelect was referring to the threat of nuclear proliferation “particularly to

Deaths Jerry McEwen

and among terrorist organizations and unstable and rogue regimes.” Miller said Trump sees modernizing the nation’s deterrent capability “as a vital way to pursue peace through strength.” If Trump were to seek an expansion of the nuclear stockpiles, it would mark a sharp shift in U.S. national security policy. President Barack Obama has made nuclear nonproliferation a centerpiece of his agenda, calling in 2009 for the U.S. to lead eﬀorts to rid the world of nuclear weapons — a goal he acknowledged would not be accomplished quickly or easily. Still, the U.S. has been moving forward on plans to upgrade its aging nuclear arsenal. Earlier this year, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said the Pentagon planned to spend $108 billion over the next five years to sustain and improve its nuclear force. The U.S. and Russia hold the vast majority of the world’s nuclear weapons.

Christmas at the cotton gin means hard work BY JIMMY C. REED Columnist

When I complained to my father that the gin crew and I should not have to work through Christmas, he said, “Son, we finished ginning last year’s cotton crop early, and you duck hunted all winter,” he answered. “Be thankful for that. Fall weather hasn’t cooperated this season. The gin must run nonstop; this dry spell won’t last long.” Back then, picking two rows of cotton at once was harvesting’s latest technology. It was a time when storing cotton in modules was unheard of. The threat of rainy weather put unrelenting pressure on gin crews. Empty trailers had to be available, meaning we had to work can-to-can’t, sleeping in snatches. When I returned from overseas military duty,

Dad put me to work managing his Mississippi Delta cotton farm and gin. Having managed the gin himself for 20 years, he knew full well what we faced. As we huddled in the gin oﬃce, I said, “Well, y’all, it’s Christmas Eve morning. The weather forecast is good, the gin yard is covered with full trailers, and the harvesters will be rolling as soon as the dew dries. We’ve got no choice but to run around the clock” — the last thing those exhausted men wanted to hear. The door creaked open and an old, black man entered. It was Jaybird, my boyhood mentor and best friend. He was carrying a large covered tray. In his eighties, Jaybird insisted on continuing to do his part for the farm, just as he had done for decades when he was the “straw boss” — the man who su-

pervised fieldwork. Not only was Jaybird renowned for his strong work ethic, but also he was outright famous for his “cathead” biscuits, a true Southern delicacy. Well before dawn, he had cooked a batch for us. Inspiration is beautiful, especially when it comes at precisely the right moment. Here we were … strong, able-bodied young men, bemoaning the fact that we must work during the Christmas holidays. And here was a frail old man, stooped by years of toil, who rose hours before we had to stand before his stove and prepare a tray of delicious food for us. Sheepishly, we ate and fell to our tasks. In the wee hours of Christmas morning, as I brewed a pot of coﬀee in the gin oﬃce, I saw lights flicker on in Jaybird’s home, just down the road.

Later, as frost glittered in dawn’s first light, I watched as he plodded toward the gin, carrying yet another tray of catheads, piping hot. As he had done so many times during my growingup years, Jaybird taught me — not by saying, but by doing. That morning, he taught me the true meaning of Christmas: In giving, we receive. He hugged me, told me to eat and get to work. I watched as the beloved old black man ambled homeward. All Christmases are wonderful, but thanks to him, this one was extra special, one I’ll always remember as … Christmas at the cotton gin.

canvas awnings and two wooden doors, will be revamped with an appearance consistent with those of the area. Memories have grown fuzzy as to prior occupants of the building. Based on what he has found inside, Tays believes there could have been a dance studio and a travel agency. “It’s still got the 14-foot ceilings with the metal tiles in it,” said Tays. “It’s a nice building. It just needs some attention.” At some point, an apartment was added on the second level. “The second level doesn’t go the whole length of the building,” said Tyson. “It’s almost like a balcony in there. It’s really kind of an odd design.” It was boarded up during the time that some work was done on the building by a prior owner. The sealed door next to the black building will be uncovered and will access the upstairs. The other door will serve the downstairs. The existing apartment opens onto a rear balcony which will be removed. The building also has a third level.

Gift-buying rush

Oil and gas tracker

Procrastinators and undecided shoppers alike get two more days to complete their Christmas shopping. While many consumers began their holiday shopping weeks ago on Black Friday or Cyber Monday, some 3 percent of consumers planned to begin their shopping in the last two weeks of December, according to the National Retail Federation. That suggests stores will be bracing today and Saturday for the crush of last-minute Santas.

Oilfield services company Baker Hughes issues today its latest weekly tally of U.S. oil and natural gas rigs. While depressed energy prices have curtailed exploration, the rig count has been rising in recent weeks. Last week, the number of rigs increased by 13 to 637. That total included 510 rigs exploring for oil and 126 seeking natural gas. One was listed as miscellaneous. The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981. It bottomed out in May at 404.

Better mental health care may help prevent violence D E A R ABBY: I have listened to our president and various candidates comment Abigail on gun conVan Buren trol after the shooting at Dear Abby the college in Oregon. Do you remember the saying, “Guns don’t kill people. People kill people”? Gun control is not going to stop this. What IS needed (or at least would help) is more mental health care. It seems every time a person takes the notion to shoot others, someone says, “He was depressed.” Never during the 20 years I have battled depression have I ever wanted to shoot anyone. There have been times when the urge to shoot myself was almost overwhelming, but I NEVER felt like shooting a bunch of strangers. Abby, I’m writing this to defend those of us who are truly fighting depression. -- DEPRESSED IN TEXAS DEAR DEPRESSED: Misinformation about mental illness is a contributor to the stigma that surrounds it. The triggers

that have led to the plague of mass shootings in this country are the result of individuals with severe psychosis and the impossible task their families have faced in getting their loved ones the ongoing medical and psychiatric treatment they needed. DEAR ABBY: The man I lived with for 25 years, “Craig,” and I have split. It was my decision. He now has a new woman in his life, and she is pregnant. Craig and I share a 23-year-old son. Craig calls me often. He’s my best friend and I wish him the best, but I get the feeling he is unhappy with this woman and feels trapped. He calls to ask me for advice and talk about the problems he has with her. The woman has forbidden him to have contact with me so he has to sneak the calls. Should I not talk to him anymore, or leave it to him to make that decision? It seems to me he still needs me in his life as a friend. Is he emotionally cheating on this new woman? -- SYMPATHETIC EX IN VIRGINIA DEAR EX: If Craig needs counseling, he should be getting it from an unbiased professional. His lady friend obviously views you as her rival, which is why she has forbidden him to contact you. It’s time to ask yourself how

being in the middle of this makes you feel. If the answer is “not good,” then tell Craig you don’t want to cause problems in his new relationship, and sneaking around is dishonest and childish. And yes, this is a form of cheating because Craig is still emotionally dependent on you. DEAR ABBY: I am a woman who works in an office building. What’s the proper etiquette when the cleaning service is cleaning the restroom? If it’s a woman, I tend to go in anyway. If it’s a man, I wait (most of the time). -- RESTROOM ETIQUETTE DEAR R.E.: I don’t think there is a rule of etiquette regarding this. When the cleaning crew (or janitor) is in the restroom, there is usually a sign posted to that effect. In many cases, if the janitor is a male in a women’s restroom, he will immediately exit the room. However, if that doesn’t happen, it’s then up to the individual to determine if her call of nature is so urgent it must be heeded immediately. 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). Sharing the same sensibility isn’t necessary to a productive relationship. Align yourself with people who are very different from you, because you’ll work great together now and mesh in interesting ways. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Put serious attention into what you’ll wear, who you might see, what you’ll talk about. Forethought will lead you to make a wonderful impression. Your upbeat and confident mood will make all of the difference. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If you go seeking inspiration, you may come up dry. Seek connection instead. This aim will prompt you to bring more of yourself to interactions, and you’ll be met in kind. CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you try and calm yourself by making life a little more predictable, you will achieve a level of predictability somewhere between delightful spontaneity and mild chaos. Save your energy;

embrace the unknown. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It may feel like a game of limbo in which you’re being asked to bend backward to the furthest extent you can without falling down. You’re emotionally and practically flexible, but should they really be asking this of you? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Happiness depends on your ability to reduce the self-critical voice inside your head. The praiseful voice is equally unnecessary. Focus on tasks; eliminate the commentary. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Relationships reach new comfort levels. This might change the whole game, inspiring you to go for a deeper commitment, or maybe it’s just something that will happen naturally. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You know the social secret: People who feel accepted are way more fun. That’s why you strive to be easygoing, project tolerance and eschew pretentiousness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You warmly try to include everyone, make introductions and promote togetherness. You can feel good about the efforts you make in this regard, and you’re likely to have extremely successful results. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). An unexpected twist -your act of humility accidentally draws attention to you. So much for the spotlight you were trying to avoid. The more you run, the more it shines on you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The beautiful and elusive Marlene Dietrich suggested, “It’s the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.” You have so many friends like this, and it will be good to be around them now. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you even half-believe in spirit guides, and you call yours up, you might just get an intuitive message about how you can fix things. You’ll still have to do all the work, though. Spirit guides are advisers, not employees.

My Christmas wish list Old Saint Nick is almost ready to make his way to your house and mine this weekend, but I have a separate Christmas Wish list for Santa. If I were able to make these wishes come true I would, but it’s out of my hands. I’m required by Christmas law to send these Kent to the jolly old Mohundro man in the red suit before Sports Editor he leaves the North Pole Saturday night. There’s only one wish on my list that takes priority over all the others: for the Alcorn Central Golden Bears to win their first game of the season. I don’t think I’d be wrong

in guessing that head coach Mike Lewis has had this wish on his list for a while. It’s been a rough beginning for Lewis’ squad in his second stint at ACHS. They have been in some games early but usually their lack of experience and a winning mentality have been their undoing in some lopsided losses. Granted, they have played some stiﬀ competition, but it’s not like they haven’t played these same schools in pervious seasons and won. If they could just get that elusive first win, that would do them a world of good. It might even start a trend. Don’t forget that the Bears won the school’s only state title under Lewis back in 1988. It can be done and he’s the man that can do it. For coaches Fred Staf-

ford’s Lady Warriors, coach Cliﬀ Little’s Lady Lions, and coach Jason Allen’s Thrasher Lady Rebels I wish a barrel of patience. These successful coaches have some extremely young and inexperienced teams that are learning and growing but need some more time to succeed. For coaches Craig Dailey and Brian Middleton at Tishomingo County I wish you guys continued improvement. From where you started the season til now there has been noticeable improvement and both teams are capable of winning any given night. My wish is that trend continues for you guys. For coach Charlette Foster and the Alcorn Central Lady Bears I wish a new winning streak to start. You hade a brief one recently but have

had some tough luck since. This wish is similar to the one I made for coaches Staﬀord, Allen and Little. Patience is required but the ability is obviously there. I’ve seen it. For coach Keith Greene and the Corinth Warriors, I wish you another trip to Jackson. I know, don’t put the buggy before the horse. But although you lost a ton of experience and talent oﬀ last year’s state championship team, there’s still talent as usual at CHS and if you keep doing what you’ve been doing this season, there’s a chance to do just that. For coaches Joe Dan Roberts and Chris Byrd at Kossuth I wish continued success. Both squads have played well up to this point and have Please see WISH LIST | 9A

Bulldogs having fun in the sun From Mississippi State SID

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s greeted Mississippi State football Thursday as the Bulldogs returned to the practice field in preparation for a Dec. 26 matchup against Miami (Ohio) in the 2016 St. Petersburg Bowl. MSU worked out for less than two hours at Calvary Christian High School in Clearwater, representing the

squad’s first practice since arriving in St. Petersburg on Wednesday evening. The Bulldogs then split into two groups in the afternoon with a portion of the team visiting patients at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, including head coach Dan Mullen. The remainder of the squad joined players from Miami (Ohio) at the “Fill The Bowl” challenge. The two teams bagged food

for under privileged children in the area this holiday season. Mullen said he liked the focus of his team since its arrival in St. Pete as it attempts to win its third bowl game in the past four seasons. “I was really pleased with the enthusiasm and energy we had in practice today,” he said. “Generally speaking, the first practice is always the dangerous one after your first

night in a new town. I liked the focus and energy the guys had out here. I think bowl games are one of the great experiences for players. The message for our guys was, we didn’t have our best season but because of our academics and how we have taken care of things in the classroom they got rewarded with a bowl game.” Please see BULLDOGS | 9A

Happy Holidays! A look at this year’s bowls The Associated Press

If coming up with the perfect present during the holidays for one person is stressful, try doing it for 250. That is the annual task that faces those trying to select the ideal gift package for college bowl participants. Most games try to avoid giving away the same thing. Most have watches, backpacks and hats but when it

comes to the big gifts this is where the real competition begins.

Top gifts (non-gift suite) For the 16 games that choose not to have gift suites, there are some interesting choices this year. Here are the top five: Apple Watch Nike + (Alamo Bowl): This is the only

game that has announced it has the popular smartwatch as one of its gifts. Rick Hill, the game’s vice president of marketing, said they went up to the last-minute to make its decision and was in constant contact with Nike to make sure they could get them. While most companies offer a discount on bulk items, that is not the case with Apple watches, which have a re-

tail value between $349-399. Finrod’s Festive Wear (Armed Forces Bowl): Brant Ringler, the bowl’s executive director, said he got the idea two years ago when he saw Illinois arrive in Texas for bowl preparations wearing ugly holiday sweaters. This year there are two colors, red and blue. Both Please see BOWLS | 9A

shown promise. Neither team is flashy but they are eﬀective. I believe both have a chance in the post-season. For coaches Jackie Vuncannon and Paul Lyles at Walnut I wish pretty much the same thing. Both Wildcats teams have had some early success and look forward to making a run come February and March, and seem to have the talent to get there. I hope you do. For coaches Brian Brown and Jerry Lott at McNairy Central I wish player maturation and development. Having seen both teams play, I can attest that the Bob-

Basketball National Basketball Association

cats have some speed, shooting ability and scoring talent. Turn up the defense and the sky’s the limit. The Lady Bobcats have good size and physical ability but need to keep control of the ball when they have it and dish it inside as much as possible. Oh, and forcing more turnovers on defense wouldn’t hurt. When we make wishes we have to believe they’ll come true for them to actually do so. I hope all of you have the merriest of Christmases and that all the wishes on this list come true for all these coaches and teams. And I hope you get just the present you want under the tree.

BULLDOGS CONTINUED FROM 8A

Mullen also discussed the team’s health heading into the bowl. Senior defensive end A.J. Jefferson and offensive linemen Deion Calhoun, Michael Story and Daryl Williams will all miss the game due to injuries. Calhoun, Story and Williams did not play in the season finale, a 55-20 victory over rival Ole Miss. Jefferson underwent shoulder surgery the week after the Egg Bowl. It closes a brilliant career for the Summit, Miss, native who finishes tied for third all-time in MSU tackles for loss with 35. That tally matches Glen Collins (1978-81) and Johnie Cooks (1977-

feature the game’s sponsor’s logo, an F-35 jet, footballs and a goal post. “I didn’t know if it was still popular but last week I was out and saw seven college kids wearing ugly sweaters and another in ugly suit. It is nice to see the trend continuing,” Ringler said. Red, inflatable “biglazy” (Arizona Bowl): The Tucson-based game is only two years old but is developing a reputation for unique gifts. Last year it was a pair of Cowtown custom cowboy boots where each team had its own fitting sessions. The boots aren’t one of

the gifts this year but the inflatable couch might get more use in a player’s dorm room or apartment. Whatever the Cotton Bowl gives: This is the only game that does not reveal what their gifts are before the players arrive. However, the gifts are usually the best of all the bowls. Last year Alabama and Michigan State received an Apple Watch and Amazon Fire TV. Two years ago it was Beats wireless headphones and three years ago it was an Apple TV and iPad Mini. Bobblehead (Taxslayer Bowl): These are not your standard mass produced bobbleheads.

QB Holieway admires Alabama QB Hurts The Associated Press

NORMAN, Okla. — Jamelle Holieway dazzled the college football world as a true freshman who mastered Oklahoma’s dynamic wishbone attack and led the Sooners to the 1985 national championship. The 5-foot-11 field general stepped in after Troy Aikman went down with a broken leg during a loss to Miami early in the season, and the Sooners didn’t miss a beat after that game. Oklahoma won seven straight to close out the regular season, then beat Penn State in the Orange Bowl, making Holieway the only true freshman quarterback to lead a Bowl Subdivision team to a national title. Redshirt freshmen QBs have won it all, including

Jameis Winston just a few seasons ago, but Holieway stands alone as the only true frosh to pull it oﬀ from the most important position on the field. Alabama’s Jalen Hurts is two wins away from joining Holieway. The top-ranked Crimson Tide will play No. 4 Washington in the Peach Bowl on Dec. 31 in a national semifinal. Holieway, now 49 and living in Quinton, Oklahoma, has enjoyed watching Hurts from afar and sees similarities in their skills and situations. “It’s amazing that he has the same initials,” Holieway told The Associated Press by telephone. “It’s amazing that he’s a true freshman. And three, black. So we’ve got three things going.”

Holieway likes the intelligence Hurts brings to the game. He remembers the knock on black quarterbacks in the old days, that they weren’t smart enough to lead. Now, he sees Hurts using his brains and athleticism at the highest level of college football, and he’s proud. He expects Hurts and the Crimson Tide to claim the championship. “I’m very fond of the young man,” Holieway said. “He keeps his composure when the game is really tough, and they win. Thirty-one years ago, that was us.” Holieway had hoped for a chance to voice his appreciation for Hurts’ game. He feels a connection to Hurts, yet they’ve never met and he wondered if Hurts

even knows who he was. Hurts has only spoken to reporters once so far this season and isn’t expected to be available until next week before the Peach Bowl. In a way, Holieway believes Hurts winning a national title would be a greater accomplishment that his leading the Sooners to the championship. “I think of how hard it is for any quarterback to do it (win a national title),” Holieway said. “Now, because of the parity, because of the equality across the board — back then, you might have had six powerhouses. So you can basically weed them out and figure out who’s going to win the national championship. But now, it’s a coin toss.”

years my senior; and Loyd, 24 years my senior; and their spouses and children. After my father’s death, the tree at Mom’s became artificial, and it grew smaller each year. Now she has only a table-top Christmas tree. Furthermore, in 2012, when Loyd’s daughter Becky began having children of her own, our celebration of the holiday at my mother’s house ceased. Now my niece Becky has three little ones: Alexis, 4; Jackson, 3; and Nolan, 2 — and she enjoys having them partake of Christmas at their own home in Franklin, south of Nashville. The day is a bit lonelier, however, without all of my siblings and their spouses and children filling my mother’s house with laughter as we once played games and recounted family shenanigans. Even with my busyness this year, one holiday activity did remain constant, however: I managed to re-watch my favorite Christmas movies, includ-

ried, the holiday also changes when you are not with a partner anymore. Being single changes your perspective on the holiday. You no longer have someone with whom you can come home at night and relax in front of the Christmas tree, commiserating over daily life. That enjoyment of being alone suddenly shifts into loneliness during the holidays. For that short season, something as simple as going to the grocery store and seeing people together magnifies the feeling. Over time, holiday traditions change as well — and often people — like me — are not receptive to changes in family traditions. For as long as I can remember, as a child, I woke up on Christmas morning to the aroma of a live cedar tree in our living room, full of toys and a stocking filled with apples, oranges, nuts, and candy. Later, we all gathered at Mom and Dad’s for Christmas, including my brother Greg, 11 years my senior; my sister Cathy, 20

ing “White Christmas,” “Miracle on 34th Street,” “A Christmas Story” and “It’s a Wonderful Life” — the last of which I saw at the Orpheum in Memphis. Of course, such activities culminating in Christmas Day precipitate a significant buildup of emotion, and then suddenly the lead-in is over in a single day. The result is anticlimactic, as we move toward the close of the year and New Year’s Eve, ending in even more anticlimax. What I must remember in the mixed emotions surrounding the season is that we are all still alive and healthy, as far as I know, while there are others whose situation is not as fortunate. We do, after all, have each other, even if we are not together that one day. Those of us who have those things should remember the ones who have no family or friends with whom to spend the holiday—or who lack even a home to decorate. It may seem cliché, but, ultimately, it really is the small things that matter, just like Charlie Brown’s famed scrubby Christmas tree he selected near the end of the cartoon special. After initially eschewing it, the Peanuts gang come together to decorate it, turning something that appears scant into an object of beauty.

Christmas hurrying obscures its meaning The other day my older daughter said she wondered where you go to have that Christmas that shows up on Christmas cards and in story books – the one where you decorate everything in festive colors and sit by the fireplace, sipping your hot chocolate and enjoying the season as you sing Christmas songs. My answer was that I surely don’t know of the place, especially since I’ve been a grown-up. In my childhood years, I didn’t see people having such a fit about going overboard with Christmas and having so many things on the agenda that their heads were spinning by the time the big day arrived. Maybe it was because we didn’t

spend a lot of money back then, but the holiday d i d n ’ t seem so Lora Ann s t r e s s f u l Huff in those days. Back Porch My parents went to “town” on one particular day and did their shopping and my mother might order a few things from Sears and Roebuck or Spiegel catalogs – and the shopping was done! She baked special sweets for the day but we didn’t have parties and events that kept us running to and fro. The special attraction then was the Christmas

pageant at our church, and I was always anxious for the carols and the chance for the children to act out the parts as the real Christmas story was told. The words to the songs became so special to me that for years afterwards, my eyes would fill with tears when I listened to the Christmas hymns – not from sadness but with joy over the message of love and redemption. I sometimes contrast those memories with the hustle and bustle of later years. By the time my children came along, times had changed and the activities had increased, and today I see even more rushing and more stressing to do all the things that are scheduled. I have to

wonder where Jesus is in all of it! I’ve learned that after the calendar flips over to December, I will be in a tailspin until the big day arrives. Then Christmas arrives and in a few hours it’s over! Every year I say I’m going to do things differently the next time – and every year the same thing happens. I procrastinate and end up in the same dilemma. So it’s almost Christmas Eve and the names on my list are not checked oﬀ, the floor beneath my tree is bare, and there are no pastries in my cupboard. You might think I have just been sitting and sipping hot cocoa, but that’s not the case. Pottery has been made,

grandchildren and mommas have baked and decorated cookies in my kitchen, the kids have played and helped with chores at my house. The place has been like a beehive but my shopping isn’t done. As I write, my mind is headed toward a more detailed list as my husband gets ready to take me “shopping.” Time is running out – I guess I work better under pressure! So as we hurry trying to get everything done for the holiday, we should pause a moment and know that the important thing is being with family and offering a helping hand to those around us who need it. All the froufrou is really of no value in the grand scheme of things.

What is the true gift of the Christmas season? How many times in our lifetime have we driven through neighborhoods or shopped in stores and Gary looked at the naAndrews tivity displays? Did we recogDevotionals nize the true gift that was given to us over 2000 years ago? Several years ago I was working with our city on securing Christmas decorations. We had many cartoon characters made of beautifully painted wood that we were able to display but we also had a giant nativity scene with all the animals and characters that we traditionally recognize as being part of the original stable scene at the birth of Jesus. We used a doll that we laid in the manager representing the baby Jesus. The townspeople drove by and

admired the fixtures with many getting out walking around. The children especially liked the cartoon characters and they went to each one of them with big smiles and bright faces. Some of the families would walk up and look at the nativity with some parents explaining to their small children the reason we have Christmas. Others passed by without stopping at the nativity and went about their merry way. How many times have we walked by a nativity scene and not stopped to think about the greatest gift we were ever given? I know I have been guilty of this as many others have. Commercialization has taken over our holiday season starting with Halloween, almost excluding Thanksgiving, and going into and past Christmas. It has become a money pit for retailers and we the public have allowed this to happen because we are looking for material gifts instead

of spreading the good news of Jesus Christ, the Real Gift. Christmas is a fun time for family. It creates festive atmospheres in and around our communities. Our churches hold cantatas to remind us that Jesus is the reason for the season. Everyone seems to smile more and food seems to be in abundance. Many charities gain much needed support during this season because of the goodness of people wanting to share their resources. This great season also brings our thieves and robbers. Most of the time we hear this is people trying to get extra food or trying to take toys, electronics, weapons, and other material that would make good gifts. I am not taking up for these people and they should be prosecuted for doing this unless they need food. Any Christian should be willing to help someone eat but it is hard to give money to a stranger

on the street because you don’t know what the money will be used for. For me I will take someone and buy them food instead of giving them money. This is not saying that I haven’t given money before because I have when the situation didn’t benefit my time to take them and buy them food. Some of these people are just mean spirited and common criminals. The one thief that surprised me most was when he or she stole our doll out of the nativity display. Why would someone want to take a gift that is free to all who will accept Him as their Lord and Savior? After we ran a story in the newspaper about the robbery the doll amazingly reappeared in the nativity. As you shop this year or drive through the decorated neighborhoods with nativity scenes take time and notice who the real gift is. He is the only way to heaven and the only way to have

We should be careful to not leave Jesus back in the manger wondering if we forgot what He taught us as He walked around helping and serving others. He showed us how to do it without the fancy frills - just love Him with all our hearts and love our neighbor as ourselves. … And when we do that, we may not get to sit down and sip hot chocolate, but we will get to spread His love in the world around us and show them why He came in the first place!

Neighbor’s leaves cause problems WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: My mother has been dealing with her jerk of a neighbor for too long, and I’m fed up. Every year, the leaves fall from his trees, and rather than mulch them like the rest of the homeowners in the neighborhood, he gets out his leaf blower and blows them into the road and beyond, to my mother’s yard. Leaves cover the road lines. It’s slippery and dangerous. My sister called Highway Patrol and reported this ignorant neighbor, but the person who answered simply replied, “Some people are just jerks.” He’s going to cause an accident, and I’m ready to give him a piece of my mind. — Annoyed Daughter Dear Annoyed: I assume you’ve already tried talking to this man and he refuses to stop, leaving you with no other choice than to contact authorities. Record videos of him blowing leaves onto public property and your mother’s lawn so you have some proof. Depending on where you live, he could be fined up to $450. Call your department of sanitation for more information.

Dear Annie Sure, “some people are just jerks” — but it’s fair for this one to get some blowback. Dear Annie: The letter from “Heartbroken Again,” whose son has Asperger’s syndrome, could be about my son, except he received a traumatic brain injury nine years ago, when he was 16. He was a star athlete and one of the most popular kids in school until his injury. He lost a lot of his people skills. He, too, has had women at the college he is attending report him as a stalker. What my son sees as harmless flirting comes across as creepy and inappropriate. It culminated in his being charged with attempted kidnapping. He saw a girl crying while walking down the street and asked her what the matter was. She said her boyfriend had dumped her and she was homeless. He asked whether she needed a ride, and she declined. They talked for a few minutes, and then he gave her a shoulder-toshoulder hug and left. She called the boyfriend after-

ward, looking for some sympathy, and told him she had been accosted. He told her to call the police. She said my son had tried to pull her into his car. My son was arrested at gunpoint. The alleged “victim” posted on social media about how excited she was to be interviewed on TV. Fortunately, a nearby pedestrian thought it was unusual for a guy to stop and talk to a crying girl, so he videoed the entire encounter. Once the state attorney’s oﬃce saw the video, all charges were dropped. No crime had been committed. It was just a guy trying to console a crying girl. It took about a week for the video to surface, and in the meantime, the rush to judgment on social media was unbelievable. He was called a rapist and worse, and his picture was plastered all over the evening news. He was afraid to go outside, and when he did, he was punched in the face by a guy who had seen the TV report. I agree with “Heartbroken Again” about how society treats people who are diﬀerent. Thank goodness for the man who took the video. — William C. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
