City, county oust tourism board Aldermen, supervisors vote 9-1 to terminate members, citing budget concerns BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Citing concerns about overspending of the budget, city aldermen and county supervisors ousted the entire board of directors of the Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau in a joint special meeting Wednesday morning. Ward 1 Alderman Andrew Labas made the motion after say-

ing he no longer has confidence in the board because it has not adhered to the tourism budget that was written by the city and the county after the two boards rejected the proposed tourism budget for fiscal 2013. The joint board approved the motion in a 9-1 vote. The ousted board members are John Ross Jr. (county appointee), Pauline Sorrell (city

appointee), and joint appointees Phil Little, Luke Doehner, Rickey Marecle, Chris Porterfield and Glennan Grady. Sorrell and Little were appointed in November. “I think that the intentional overspending that has been done by the current board of directors of the tourism board is basically a breach of the duties of care and responsibility

that any board member should have,” said Labas. Ward 2 Alderman Ben Albarracin cast the lone “no” vote. In addition to Labas, voting in favor were Aldermen Chip Wood, J.C. Hill, Michael McFall and Mike Hopkins, and Supervisors Lowell Hinton, Tim Mitchell, Gary Ross and Jimmy Tate Waldon. Mitchell seconded the motion. Second District Super-

visor Dal Nelms was absent. Labas said a new board might be selected in about a week and a half. “The local and private legislation provides for the removal of a board member under certain circumstances,” said Bill Davis, board attorney for the supervisors, and the process for filling Please see BOARD | 2

Corinth decides on liquor ordinance City will request ABC variation to allow Sunday restaurant sales BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Staff photo by Steve Beavers

The Corinth Board of Aldermen on Wednesday adopted a liquor ordinance mirroring the regulations of the state’s Alcoholic Beverage Control division but will petition for approval of a couple of variations regarding by-the-drink sales in restaurants on Sunday and the hours of package stores. A date for the beginning of legal sales of alcoholic beverages is still unclear. City Attorney Wendell Trapp said an ordinance typically becomes effective 30 days after legal

publication in the newspaper. It is also unknown how long the ABC will take to consider the city’s requests for exceptions to the rules. The ABC regulations do not include Sunday sales at restaurants, but cities may petition the ABC to allow it. Ward 1 Alderman Andrew Labas made a motion to petition the ABC to allow by-thedrink sales on Sunday between the hours of 1 and 10 p.m. and to close package stores at 9 p.m. Monday through SaturPlease see ORDINANCE | 2

Aaron’s General Manager Greg Christian is given a tour of the Hope Dream Center by board president Annie Saffore.

Business helps provide Hope BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Greg Christian heard about the need on the radio. The Aaron’s general manager then took action to help. Christian made a $1,500 donation to the Hope Dream Center on Wednesday as part of Aaron’s Community OutReach Program. ACORP is dedicated to supporting worthy charitable causes both locally and nationally. “The center is something that is much needed these days,” said Christian. “I don’t want to see anyone homeless, especially this time of year.” The Hope Dream Center -- located in the old Tate Baptist Church at 1223 Tate Street -- has had to overcome many obstacles in its bid to help those who are homeless. The major

hurdle was the installation of a sprinkler system to meet city building ordinances. Aaron’s donation is going to payoff the remaining balance of the sprinkler system which cost the center about $26,000. “I’m glad to be a small part of a place like this,” said Christian as he toured the facility. “I like getting out and helping charities … this won’t be the last time we help the center.” Board president Annie Saffore told Christian the facility has already provided a place to stay for six individuals recently. “They were so nice and appreciative,” said Saffore. Individuals eligible for the center will fill out an application good for 28 days. If a longer stay is needed, another 28day form will have to be filled out.

Woman and children will receive meals, a warm bed and lodging with clean bathrooms. They will be counseled to determine their needs as well as how to avoid repeating their circumstances. “People can come here and feel at ease,” said Christian after taking the tour. “I would like to see it get going full-fledged … the room is here, all they need is people.” The Hope Dream Center will have over 20 rooms once completed. At this point, Saffore said organizers are trying to get showers and tubs installed. There is also a need for plumbers and electricians to donate time to help with renovations. “God has really blessed us as we try to help those homeless,” said Saffore. “This is not for any of us, it’s for the homeless.”

Northeast replacing critical administrators BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

Northeast Mississippi Community College is seeing a personnel shuffle at its highest levels as a pair of key administrators have announced plans to leave the school. NEMCC Executive Vicepresident Dr. Larry Nabors was recently named the president of Mississippi Delta Community College in Moorhead. He will assume his new position in February. Northeast President Dr. Johnny Allen said he’s grateful for Nabor’s long dedication to the school and the key leadership role he’s played in its growth and success and he wishes him well in his new position.

A successor for Nabors has not been named. Allen said he expects to make an announcement soon. NEMCC Dean of Instruction Dr. Charles Barnett also recently announced his retirement from the school. Allen said he is appreciative of Barnett’s service to the college and thankful for all of his dedication to the students at Northeast. Allen said Barnett’s position will be filled with the promotion of Dr. Rilla Jones. Jones will move into the dean’s position from her current post as director of institutional research and effectiveness. A search is currently underway to fill her former position.

Franks, 53, leaves own legacy of community volunteerism BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Joe Franks never met a stranger. The community-minded 53-year-old treated everyone as his best friend. Those who knew the Office Pro co-owner remember him as a man of faith who showed kindness to all he came in contact. Franks passed away Monday at his home following a battle with cancer. “Our community and our world have been made better because Joe Franks lived,” said his Office Pro business partner, John D. Mercier. “Our lives will be a little less now that he’s gone home.” Franks and Mercier started Office Pro on June 1, 1992.

“Everyone loved Joe. He was a great volunteer and there isn’t one bad thing you can say about him … he had a great knowledge for helping downtown that can’t be replaced.” Brent Lipford Main Street Board president “He was the nicest and kindest person I have ever met,” said Mercier. “Joe was a man of great faith in God and a community volunteer without equal.” Born June 5, 1959, Franks was a 1977 graduate of Corinth High School and an electrician for IBEW local 852. Known for his volunteerism, he served on

many boards, including Main Street Corinth, serving on the board and lining up the entertainment for the Slugburger and Hog Wild Festivals. He recently received the Jim Bynum Award for outstanding service to Main Street Corinth. “Joe was always a pleasant individual to serve with,” said Brian McCullen, who served

Iuka woman dies while fighting fire in apartment BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

An Iuka woman lost her life trying to fight a fire in the kitchen of her apartment. The body of 57-yearold Elizabeth Brooks was found shortly after noon last Friday in her residence in the Pickwick Circle

apartment complex, said Iuka Fire Chief Brian Grissom. The victim was found in a utility room next to her apartment’s kitchen — where the fire started and burned out sometime early on Friday. Grissom said it appeared that Brooks died while

trying to extinguish the fire. All of the knobs were turned off on the stove where the fire started, Grissom explained, and the water for the kitchen sink was still running when the body was discovered. “Apparently she was putting stuff on the fire trying to put it out,” said Gris-

som. While investigators are not certain of the exact time of the fire, they believe it occurred shortly before midnight of the preceding night. “The clock on the kitchen wall had melted and stopped at 12:08,” Grissom said. “We think the fire was

Middleby has bought Viking Range Associated Press

GREENWOOD — Food service equipment maker Middleby Corp. has bought Mississippi-based oven and kitchen appliance maker Viking Range Corp. for $380 million. Viking Range is based in Greenwood, Miss., and makes products for use in residential cooking. Middleby said Viking Range has $200 million in annual sales. Over the last 12 months Middleby’s revenue has grown 21 percent to $990 million. The deal was announced Monday. Fred Carl Jr., Viking’s founder and chief executive officer, tells the Greenwood Commonwealth that the manufacturer of upscale kitchen appliances will stay in Greenwood. He expects few changes resulting from the new ownership other than future growth in the city of its birth. “I am truly happy about this,” Carl said. “It’s going to be good for Viking, good

In addition to Viking’s manufacturing operation, the company’s hospitality subsidiaries — including its cooking schools and The Alluvian hotel — are included in the sale to Middleby. Carl said Viking’s 1,000 employees were notified of the sale in an email Monday. Middleby, based in Elgin, Ill., says the acquisition will help it expand in the residential cooking market.

School safety, training under review by state Associated Press

JACKSON — The Mississippi Department of Education is reviewing its safety policies and training requirements. December’s school shooting in Newtown, Conn., has put spotlight on those issues. Shane McNeil, director of safe and orderly schools, tells the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal that the state department is in the process of determining any changes that need to be

made. McNeil says the state department conducts visits at schools to ensure compliance with existing policies, including emergency drills. He says the state also will help local school districts with training and technical assistance to support a safe environment for the students. Several school districts are also reviewing their safety programs.

Bassoul, Middleby’s chairman and CEO, said in a press release that plans are to maintain Viking’s operations in Greenwood. “It is our intent to help Fred and his team to continue to grow Viking right there in Mississippi where it’s been since he started the company,” Bassoul said.

Hill and Alderman at Large Mike Hopkins voting “no.” Pending the ABC’s approval of that petition, the board also approved Labas’ motion to bring the beer ordinance in line with the liquor ordinance,

We wish for all a great year and we appreciate those who read our articles and take the time to contact us from time to time. Many in the business world are now thinking about inventory to determine where they stand for the year. The Bible tcaches that Christians should inventory their lives and see whether or not they are in the faith. “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates” (2 Cor 13:5)? The expression “the faith” in the passage above indicates that there is only one faith. In Ephesians 4:5 Paul refers to the one faith, “One Lord, one faith, one baptism.” Self examination is necessary in order to determine whether or not one is in the “one faith.” Mirrors are used freely by people to determine how they look before going out somewhere. There is also a spiritual mirror referred to in the word of God which is a mirror for the soul. James describes those who are only hearers and not doers of the law as looking in a mirror. “For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror” ( James 1:23 NKJV). After looking into the mirror, notice what the hearer does, “For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was” ( James 1 :24). The spiritual mirror that Christians are to look into is described as the perfect law of liberty in James I :25. “But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.” The word of God is that mirror of the soul that reveals our spiritual condition. That is why Paul admonished the Corinthians, “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith…”. The word of God reveals how one gets into the faith and how those in the faith should live. The same mirror that Christians use to examine themselves is the same mirror that all will be judged by. “He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day ( John 12:48). Are we using that mirror?

Senate approves 4 new members for TVA board NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The U.S. Senate has approved four new members to the board of directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority, which will go on to the President’s desk for his signature. The Senate on Tuesday approved the nominations of Vera Lynn Evans of Tennessee, C. Peter Mahurin of Kentucky, Michael McWherter of Tennessee, and Joe H. Ritch of Alabama to fill vacancies on the ninemember board. The annual base stipend for board members is $48,900. President Barack Obama made the nominations in February and September. One board member, Marilyn Brown, also was nominated by the president for reappointment, but her nomination was not voted on by the full Senate. In a statement, TVA

Chairman Bill Sansom said, “I am pleased the Senate has confirmed the nominations of these four outstanding individuals who will provide strong business, financial and public service leadership to TVA.” Tennessee Sens. Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker also welcomed the new members to the board of the utility, which provides electricity to 9 million people in Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia. “I believe, after meeting these individuals and studying their backgrounds and qualifications, that they will provide strong board leadership,” Alexander said in a statement. “I appreciate the willingness of experienced individuals to serve TVA as it goes through an important leadership transition over the next few months,” Corker said in a statement.

which would also allow beer sales in restaurants on Sundays during the same hours. Hopkins voted “no.” Package stores will not do business on Sundays. Hours other days would be 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Restaurant by-the-drink hours would be 10 a.m. to midnight on the days of Monday through Saturday. Several concerned pastors attended the meeting to express opposition to Sunday sales. Randy Bostick of Oak-

land Baptist Church said the board shouldn’t merely tip its hat to the churches by starting sales in the afternoon on Sunday. “For me and my people, the sale of liquor in restaurants would be a disrespect to the Lord’s day,” he said. In the board’s workshop preceding the meeting, Police Chief David Lancaster said he would prefer the city not to allow restaurant sales of liquor on Sunday. “We’d like to have a day that we don’t have to deal

with it,” he said. Labas and Ward 2 Alderman Ben Albarracin said they have heard from numerous constituents who are in favor of Sunday by-the-drink sales. “I’ve been approached by just as many people that are asking for it,” said Albarracin. “I feel like you’ve got to try to represent what the majority of our districts are asking for.” Corinth voters approved the sale of alcoholic beverages by a wide margin in a Dec. 11 special election.

unteerism … he did some amazing things when it came to volunteering.” Franks, a die-hard Tennessee Titans fan, will be remembered as someone who always wanted to make things better by longtime friend Joey Gilmore. “Joe was a super person who put others before himself,” said Gilmore, who has known Franks since 1975. “He enjoyed making people laugh and was the type of person who could make you feel better by just entering the room.” Remembered for his love for cooking and his Titans, the Kiwanis member left a lasting impression on the many he met.

“He loved living and I feel like I am a better person because I knew him,” added Gilmore. “I’m so glad I got to spend the last couple of days with him.” Randy Humphreys served with Franks on the Main Street Board for several years. “I am blessed to be a friend of his,” said Humphreys. “He told me one time that ‘he loved to make people have fun’ … you can write down hundreds of good things about Joe because that was the type of person he was.” Funeral services for Franks are set for 2 p.m. today at First Presbyterian Church with the Rev. Don Elliott, the Rev. Jim-

my Rich and Joey Gilmore delivering the eulogy. “Joe loved life and he loved people,” said fellow Kiwanian and Mason brother Joe Caldwell. “He was truly a people person and a great friend.” “He was a man who had hundreds of best friends because all of his friends were his best friends,” said Mercier. “Joe set an example with his entire life as to how we should live and treat our fellow man.” Franks leaves behind his wife, Sharon Patrick Franks; a daughter, Erin Grier Moss and her husband, Jeremy; a son, Zack Grier and Krystal and Audrey; and grandchildren Brynn and Presley Moss.

place. The city and county had requested the CVB board attend Wednesday’s meeting. Tourism Director Kristy White and one member of the board of directors, Luke Doehner, were present. White said John Ross Jr. was presiding as judge in a session of Corinth’s municipal court and some other board members were unable to attend because of extended holiday breaks. She said the board would like to have a meeting with the city and county on Jan. 15 following the next scheduled meeting of the CVB board

in order to have a quorum present, but the joint citycounty board did not entertain the request. Attorney Wendell Trapp said the monthly financial reports that have been submitted indicate the tourism office is not in compliance with certain budget line items after the city and county rewrote the fiscal 2013 budget to set aside $250,000 for Crossroads Arena. He inquired whether all CVB board members were aware of the situation. White said all board members had received a copy of a letter sent by the city and county about the

budget concerns. The city and county have suggested board members could be personally liable for the overspending. Alderman Wood said he opposed the budget rewrite but supports the ouster of the board because budgets must be followed. The CVB board was considering presenting another budget with $250,000 set aside for the arena while continuing to meet contractual obligations that the city and county had not taken into account, according to White.

In addition, Brenda Durden, the widow of longtime Viking executive, Liston Durden, was also a Viking shareholder. The company experienced 15 years of dramatic growth, expanding its product line, its manufacturing operation in Greenwood and its worldwide distribution. Carl said that Viking had been approached on a regular basis over the years by potential suitors, including several residential appliance makers, private equity firms and private investors.

Minor appeals sentence to US Supreme Court JACK ELLIOTT JR. Associated Press

JACKSON — Imprisoned former attorney Paul Minor has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn his sentence in a Mississippi judicial corruption case. Minor is appealing a decision by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last August that upheld the sentences of Minor and former judges Wes

Teel and John Whitfield. Prosecutors said Minor backed loans for the judges in exchange for favorable court rulings. Documents show the appeal was filed Monday with the Supreme Court. In court documents, Minor has argued prosecutors didn’t prove he received something in return for guaranteeing loans for Teel, a Chancery Court judge, and

Whitfield, a Circuit Court judge. Prosecutors said Minor guaranteed loans for the judges, then used cash and third parties to pay off the debts. They said the judges then ruled in his favor in civil cases. Minor was sentenced in 2011 to eight years in prison. Minor said the loans were meant to help friends in times of need and he expected nothing

in return. But prosecutors charged that all three took extraordinary steps to hide the loans. Minor had argued the government failed to show he bought any ruling with payments to Teel or Whitfield, and didn’t show that a different judge would have come to a different conclusion in cases cited by prosecutors.

Groups urge probe of mystery donation BY JACK GILLUM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Two election watchdog organizations have urged the Justice Department and Federal Election Commission to investigate more than $12 million in campaign contributions that were mysteriously funneled through two little-known companies in Tennessee to a prominent tea party group. The origin of the money, the largest anonymous political donations in a campaign year filled with them, remains a secret. The watchdog groups said routing the $12 million through the Tennessee companies appeared to violate a U.S. law prohibiting the practice of laundering campaign contributions in the name of another person. They also said the lawyer in Tennessee who registered the companies, William S. Rose Jr. of Knoxville, may have violated three other laws by failing to organize each company as a political committee, register them as political committees and file financial statements for them with the government. Rose did not return a telephone message, text message and email from The Associated Press and could not otherwise be reached immediately for comment. He previously told AP that his business was a “family secret” and he was not obligated to disclose the origin of the $12 million routed through Specialty Investments Group Inc. and Kingston Pike Development Corp. Business records indicate that Rose registered Kingston Pike one day after he created Specialty Group, in the final weeks before Election Day. Rose previously complained that phone calls and emails from reporters were irritating. The watchdog organizations, the Campaign Legal Center and Democracy 21, said a criminal investigation by the Justice Department was necessary “because the integrity of U.S. elections depends on the effective enforcement of the nation’s campaign finance laws.” They noted that, although the FEC traditionally enforces campaign finance laws and imposes civil fines for violations, the Justice Department can conduct criminal investigations of “knowing and willful” violations under the 1971 Federal Election Campaign Act. Violations could carry up to five years in prison. The groups separately urged the FEC to investigate.

The contributions “raise serious questions about whether this was an illegal scheme to launder money into the 2012 elections and hide from the public the true identity of the sources of the money.” Fred Wertheimer President, Democracy 21 The contributions “raise serious questions about whether this was an illegal scheme to launder money into the 2012 elections and hide from the public the true identity of the sources of the money,” said Fred Wertheimer, president of Democracy 21. He said no one should be permitted to “launder huge, secret contributions through corporate shells into federal elections.” The money went to the tea party’s most prominent “super” political committee, FreedomWorks for America, which spent it on high-profile congressional races. The $12 million accounted for most of the $20 million the group raised this year. A spokeswoman for the FreedomWorks organization, Jackie Bodnar, did not return a telephone message left with her. FreedomWorks has previously declined to identify who was behind the donations to its super PAC or discuss them further. The contributions represent a glaring example of the murkiness surrounding who is giving money to politicians in modern elections, shaped by new federal rules allowing unlimited and anonymous donations. The law has allowed wealthy executives, corporations and other organizations to establish shell companies and mail drops to disguise the source of the money they give to political groups and politicians. But the mysterious donations linked to Rose by far eclipse any suspicious money sent to support the campaigns of President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney. More than half the $12 million in contributions was routed through Rose’s companies in the final days before the election even as the AP and Knoxville News Sentinel were jointly investigating $5.2 million in suspicious donations traced to one of the companies during October.

Letter to the editor

MRHC is the best hospital anywhere To the editor: I want to express my feelings regarding our fantastic Magnolia Regional Health Center. I think this is a super facility, second to none, including any medical facility in Tupelo or the Memphis, Tenn., area. I cannot understand why people go to other places when we have a modern, state-of-theart facility right here in Corinth at MRHC. I know there will be numerous people who disagree and I know everyone has the right to disagree with me. Still, I would say we have a good hospital in the area we live in. We have super doctors. I believe we have the best of medical care anywhere. I appreciate being able to express my opinion on this matter. Wilma Byrd Corinth

Depardieu Revolution could inspire patriots

Charter schools won’t solve education problems During Mississippi’s upcoming 2013 legislative session, we will hear a lot of talk about charter schools. It’s nothing new, since for two years now, at least, the vast majority of educational reform energy has been focused on charter schools. It’s just that this year, education reform is getting even more attention — meaning charter schools will lead the discussion. In a best-case scenario for charter school supporters, expansion in Mississippi would impact only a fraction of students, and that impact could be years down the road. If an expansion is passed, the first charter schools in the state could take years to set up. Thus, charter schools are little more than a political red herring — garnering most of the debate, energy and focus of the commonwealth while drowning out other education and general issues in Mississippi. Certainly, there has been an increase in charter schools nationally over the last decade. But these charter schools still represent only 2 percent to 5 percent of public schools and students served. There’s simply no way that a solution serving such a small percentage of students can change the course of the state’s educational dilemma. Yet, the public in Mississippi has heard so much about charter schools in the last two years, many in the state could view them as a panacea for the state’s public education problems. State leaders who are pushing for charter schools expansion do note this, mildly, from time to time. The most common phrase, repeated by Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, House Speaker Philip Gunn and Gov. Phil Bryant, is that charter schools “are only one tool for the toolbox” of education reform. But this message doesn’t appear to get much play or traction as the debate continues to rage as if it is some major solution. Simply, many people appear to think charter schools will promptly solve many of Mississippi’s education problems. ... ... But let’s face this fact: charter schools are not a miracle for what ails Mississippi education. They won’t spring up magically overnight if the Legislature passes an expansion bill, as is expected by many. And, for charter schools to work, it would require active participation from parents and the communities they would serve. The same could already be said for existing public schools. ... — The Clarion-Ledger, Jackson

A verse to share The Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for the Lord does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” — 1 Samuel 16:7 (NRSV)

When Socialist President Francois Hollande took office, he swiftly made good on his pledge to raise the top tax rate on Frenchmen who earn a million euros a year -- to 75 percent. The regime would now confiscate three of four dollars that the most successful Frenchmen earned. Paris also imposes a wealth tax on assets worth more than $1.7 million. This broke it for Gerard Depardieu, the famed actor and bon vivant who has performed in scores of films in such roles as Jean Valjean in “Les Miserables” and Cyrano de Bergerac. Depardieu put his Paris mansion up for sale, crossed the border into the Belgian village of Nechin, gave up his French passport and is renouncing his French citizenship. A tiny community of French already reside in Nechin, a kilometer beyond the reach of Hollande’s tax police. Depardieu says that this past year 85 percent of all he earned went for taxes. Over a 45-year career, he contends, almost $200 million in income has been taxed away by the French government. One French radio station claims that 5,000 French citizens have fled since Hollande took office. Hollande’s regime, writes Edward Cody of The Washington Post, has all but declared Depardieu a traitor. Labor Minister Mi-

chel Sapin calls him an example of “personal degradation.” Culture Pat Minister AuBuchanan relie Filippetti charges Columnist him with “deserting the battlefield in a war against the economic crisis.” “When someone loves France, he should serve,” says Hollande, calling Depardieu “pathetic” and “unpatriotic.” Which raises a question for Americans. For our revolution was born of a tax rebellion against the Stamp Act, the Townshend duties and the tea tax that led to the Boston Tea Party. Purpose of these taxes: Have the colonies pay a fair share of the cost of the French and Indian War, in which British soldiers had driven the enemies of the colonies out of the Ohio Valley. But when farmers in Pennsylvania rebelled against a whiskey tax to defray the cost of our Revolutionary War, President Washington marched out with 13,000 militia to crush that tax rebellion. While the socialist left has come down hardest on Depardieu, he is well within a tradition of the cultural left. As The Associated Press’ Thomas Addison reports,

when the British top tax rate was 95 percent in the 1960s, the Beatles’ George Harrison wrote “Taxman” with the lyrics, “There’s one for you, 19 for me.” In 2005, Beatles’ drummer Ringo Starr moved to Monaco, where the income tax rate is zero. Sean Connery, the first “James Bond,” departed Britain in the 1960s for Spain and the Bahamas, writes Addison, “another spot with zero income tax.” In the 1970s, his successor as 007, Roger Moore, also chose tax exile in Monaco. In those years of confiscatory tax rates in England, the Rolling Stones relocated to Southern France. What does this teach us? That socialism, the forced redistribution of wealth from those who produce it to those who do not, eventually forces a man to choose between himself and his family -- and his government. Socialism creates and exacerbates a conflict in loyalties. A regime that takes three of every four dollars a man earns is an enemy of what that man works to accomplish. Mitt Romney was castigated for keeping bank accounts in the Caymans, Bermuda and Switzerland. Yet countless U.S. companies leave profits abroad to evade U.S. taxes. Californians flee to Nevada, Arizona, Idaho and Colorado to escape Golden State taxes. Are they dis-

loyal to their home state, or are they doing what is right by their families, their first responsibility? For many successful Americans, over half of all they earn is now taken by government. And reading The New York Times’ yearend editorial, these may soon be seen as the good old days. The Times urges Obama to consider sweeping new taxes to “reduce income inequality.” Among the revenue raisers for which it urges consideration: Almost tripling the capital tax rate to 40 percent, capping deductions for high earners, restoring the estate tax to confiscatory levels, higher tax rates or surcharges on multimillion-dollar incomes and raising the corporate tax rate -- already the highest in the world. “All that would be only a start,” says the Times. A carbon tax, a value-added tax, a financial transactions tax should all be looked at. Can a man love his country and hate its government? Of course. Ask Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Ask the patriots of ‘76. This un-American and egalitarian fanaticism rearing its head today may one day force just such a question upon American patriots. (Daily Corinthian columnist Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”)

American families’ safety net under siege BY DAVID ELLIOT Peace of mind. That’s what Medicare and Medicaid mean for nearly one in every three Americans. Almost 50 million Americans have paid into, and are beneficiaries of Medicare, our national health insurance program for seniors and people with disabilities. And almost 50 million Americans — the elderly, low-income adults and their children, and people with certain disabilities — have access to Medicaid. Six million Americans depend on both. But now these programs are under siege. Some want to replace guaranteed Medicare benefits with a voucher. The problem with this approach is twofold. First, it would require seniors to pay significantly more for basic health care — and this would drive large numbers of our most vulnerable citizens into bankruptcy. Second, these are earned benefits that hard-working people paid for most or all of their adult lives. They are

not giveaways. Others would “block grant” Medicaid to the states, as Rep. Paul Ryan proposed. The federal government would give states a fixed amount of money. This amount of money would not go up as more people get Medicaid services. The results would be either big cuts in health care services or big tax increases for states or both. Instead, we should keep Medicaid as a system that provides federal funding for seniors and people with disabilities — and for all the families that rely on Medicaid. The debate over Medicare’s and Medicaid’s future is likely to continue throughout this year and for years to come. Sometimes even the most important government functions can come off as abstractions — decimal points on a budget ledger deciding who is eligible and who isn’t, who gets cut, and who doesn’t. So at USAction, we asked our members what Medicare and Medicaid mean to

them and their families. Their responses revealed how deeply and keenly Americans cherish and rely on the promise our nation made when we established these lifelines in 1965. We’ve kept this promise so far and Americans demand we keep it in the future. After sorting through hundreds of stories, certain themes emerged. Many people told us they are alive only because of Medicare or Medicaid. Many others discussed how these services have enhanced the quality of their lives. Others still talked about how it brings them peace of mind. We heard from young people who do not directly receive benefits, but say they are able to save money they would otherwise spend on aging parents. Debra Pekin in Wheeling, Ill., wrote that without Medicare, she would have to quit her job to care for her 92-year-old mom — Social Security pays for her assisted community living, but Medicare covers her health care costs.

Many wrote that without Medicare, they would face financial ruin. A woman noted that the entirety of her monthly Social Security check would have to go to her health care costs. Finally, a large number of respondents expressed extreme outrage that a system they paid into all of their adult lives could be cut. These people clearly felt robbed and violated. “I paid into Medicare for 40 years,” writes Jim Brady in Rochester, Mich. “This is my money I am getting back. It is not charity. No one has the right to steal my money.” These are the Medicare and Medicaid stories of ordinary Americans. They are on the front lines of the Medicare and Medicaid debates. Whatever policies are adopted, they are the canaries in the coal mine — they will feel the impact first. We made them a promise. Will we keep it?

State Reeves pushing for charter schools in next session BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — With the 2013 Mississippi legislative session starting next week, Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves says he believes there’s bipartisan support for charter schools and for efforts to improve children’s reading skills in early elementary grades. The Rankin County Republican also says he would support a “reasonable, rational” bond bill that focuses on long-term needs, not short-term projects such as new roofs for state buildings. The 2012 session ended without an agreement on issuing bonds to finance projects. While House leaders last year sought a bond package of $250 million or more, Senate leaders sought less than half of that, with Reeves saying he didn’t want to increase the state’s debt. Reeves served eight years as state treasurer. He’s beginning his second year as lieutenant governor, the presiding officer of the state Senate. In an interview with The Associated Press, Reeves said he’ll look at any immigration-enforcement bills that might be filed before commenting in detail on the issue. He said he hopes the U.S. Congress acts “to make it significantly more difficult” for illegal immigrants to enter and remain in the country. In 2012, the Mississippi House passed a bill that would have allowed law enforcement officers to

check people’s immigration status during traffic stops or other encounters. The bill, which was supported by Republican Gov. Phil Bryant, died in a Senate committee amid opposition from business and agriculture groups. Reeves said he’ll release details of his legislative agenda sometime after the session begins. He said he believes a large number of Mississippians and “an overwhelming majority of Republicans” support charter schools, although he added: “It’s not a partisan issue.”

Charters are public schools that are free from some state regulations. They often have different approaches to academics or discipline. Supporters say charters allow for greater innovation, but critics say an emphasis on them could detract from seeking broader improvements in schools. Bryant has proposed $15 million to help improve reading instruction for children in early grades and says students who can’t read proficiently by the end of third grade should be held back

for more work. Reeves said he believes there’s widespread agreement at the Capitol that it’s important for children to be strong readers by the end of third grade because those who struggle are more likely to become dropouts. Here are other excerpts from the AP interview with the lieutenant governor: AP: Aside from charter schools, what’s on your education agenda? Reeves: “One of the things I supported last year was increased fund-

Analysis: Cliff deal is another pain-free punt BY CHARLES BABINGTON Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Congress’ hectic resolution of the “fiscal cliff” crisis is the latest in a long series of decisions by lawmakers and the White House to do less than promised — and to ask Americans for little sacrifice — in confronting the nation’s burgeoning debt. The deal will generate $600 billion in new revenue over 10 years, less than half the amount President Barack Obama first called for. It will raise income tax rates only on the very rich, despite Obama’s campaign for broader increases. It puts off the toughest decisions about spending cuts for military and domestic programs, including Medicare and Social Security. And it does nothing to mitigate the looming partisan showdown on the debt ceiling, which must rise soon to avoid default on U.S. loans. In short, the deal reached between Obama and congressional Republicans continues to let Americans enjoy relatively high levels of government service at low levels of taxation. The only way that’s possible, of course, is through heavy borrowing, which future generations will inherit.

“Going over the cliff would have put us on a better budget path.” William Gale C0-Director nonpartisan Tax Policy Center While Americans widely denounce the mounting debt, not so many embrace cuts to costly programs like Social Security. And most want tax increases to hit someone other than themselves. “This is another ‘kick the can down the road’ event,” said William Gale, co-director of the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center and a former Republican White House adviser. “It is a huge missed opportunity.” “Going over the cliff would have put us on a better budget path,” Gale said. The fiscal cliff’s combination of big tax increases and deep spending cuts would have provided major political leverage for both parties to achieve greater deficit reduction as they worked to ease some, but not all, of its bite. In fact, the whole point of the congressionally created cliff was to force the government — which borrows about 40 cents of every dollar it spends — to be-

gin a fiscal diet that would spread the unpleasantness widely. Instead, Congress and the White House did what they almost always do. At the last minute they downsized their proposals, protecting nearly every sector of society from serious pain. The accord leaves most government programs operating as usual, postponing yet again the threat of serious reductions. Aside from the payroll tax increase, which drew little debate even though it affects almost all working Americans, the compromise will raise tax rates only on incomes above $450,000 for couples and $400,000 for individuals. That’s less than 1 percent of U.S. taxpayers. Obama had campaigned for thresholds of $200,000 and $250,000. The fiscal cliff’s implementation would have made it nearly impossible for Republicans to stop him, if Democrats had held their ground. That might have produced an ugly scene, rattled the financial markets and sparked even more partisan bitterness. But any step toward major deficit-reduction will trigger anger, threats and genuine discomfort for people who receive government services or pay taxes. In other words, everyone.

Nation Briefs Clinton talking to staff as she recovers WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has been speaking with staff and reviewing paperwork from the New York hospital where she is recovering from a blood clot in her head, the State Department said Wednesday. Doctors continue to monitor Clinton’s progress and her response to blood thinners intended to dissolve the clot. Aides said there was no update Wednesday on her condition, but emphasized that the secretary remained engaged with staff in Washington who are handling U.S. foreign policy in her absence. “She’s been quite active on the phone with all of us,” said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. Clinton was admitted Sunday to New YorkPresbyterian Hospital for treatment of a clot stemming from a concussion she suffered earlier

in December. While at home battling a stomach virus, Clinton had fainted, fallen and struck her head, a spokesman said. Clinton, 65, hasn’t been seen publicly since Dec. 7.

House GOP scraps vote on Sandy aid WASHINGTON (AP) — New York-area lawmakers in both parties erupted in anger after learning the House Republican leadership decided to allow the current term of Congress to end without holding a vote on aid for victims of Superstorm Sandy. Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., said late Tuesday he was told by the office of Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia that Speaker John Boehner of Ohio had decided to abandon a vote this session. Cantor, who sets the House schedule, did not immediately comment. House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer of Maryland told reporters that just before Tuesday evening’s vote on “fiscal cliff”

legislation, Cantor told him that he was “99.9 percent confident that this bill would be on the floor, and that’s what he wanted.” A spokesman for Boehner, Michael Steel, said, “The speaker is committed to getting this bill passed this month.” In remarks on the House floor, King called the decision “absolutely inexcusable, absolutely indefensible. We cannot just walk away from our responsibilities.”

Theater shooting kin reject movie invitation DENVER (AP) — Relatives of the majority of people killed in a Colorado movie theater rejected an invitation on Wednesday to attend its reopening this month, calling it a “disgusting offer” that came at a terrible time — right after the first Christmas without their loved ones. The parents, grandparents, cousins and widow of nine of the 12 people killed said they were asked to attend an “eve-

ning of remembrance” followed by a movie when the Aurora theater reopens on Jan. 17. They released a letter sent to the theater’s owner, Cinemark, in which they criticized the Plano, Texas-based company for not previously reaching out to them to offer condolences and refusing to meet with them without lawyers. “Our family members will never be on this earth with us again and a movie ticket and some token words from people who didn’t care enough to reach out to us, nor respond when we reached out to them to talk, is appalling,” the letter said. Cinemark had no immediate comment. The company announced last month that it would reopen the theater on Jan. 17 and invite people affected by the attack and other guests, a move that Aurora officials said has strong support in the community. Gov. John Hickenlooper plans to attend.

Governor sues NCAA over sanctions STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — In a bold challenge to the NCAA’s powers, Pennsylvania’s governor claimed in a lawsuit Wednesday that college sports’ governing body overstepped its authority and “piled on” when it penalized Penn State over the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal. Gov. Tom Corbett asked that a federal judge throw out the sanctions, which include an unprecedented $60 million fine and a four-year ban on bowl games, arguing that the measures have harmed students, business owners and others who had nothing to do with Sandusky’s crimes. A small number of top NCAA officials inserted themselves “into an issue they had no authority to police under their own bylaws and one that was clearly being handled by the justice system,” Corbett said at a news conference.

The case, filed under federal antitrust law, could define just how far the NCAA’s authority extends. Up to now, the federal courts have allowed the organization broad powers to protect the integrity of college athletics.

Paparazzo killed after taking shots of car LOS ANGELES (AP) — In the world of paparazzi, one image of the rich or famous can be like winning the lottery. But the hunt for that shot can be dangerous — even deadly. A photographer was struck by a car and killed on Tuesday as he darted across a street after snapping pictures of Justin Bieber’s white Ferrari — and the teen heartthrob wasn’t even in the car. The incident brought the dangers of paparazzi’s often aggressive work into harsh focus, and prompted some celebrities to renew their calls for tougher laws to rein in their pursuers.

passed in 1997, it contemplated that it would be recalculated and recalibrated and presented to the Legislature every single year. In 2005, the Legislature with, I presume, the governor’s approval and support and maybe even his initiative ... changed the recalculation, recalibration, if you will, from annually to every four years.

Financial Freedom Begins With A Plan Let Us Develop A Plan For Your Individual Needs

to tell you that they were right in ‘97 or that they were right or wrong in 2005, but what I will tell you is that the difference in, quote, ‘full funding’ for MAEP, the difference had we done what they originally said in ‘97 versus what they did in 2005, is ... approximately $150 million. ... Any formula that can have that large a discrepancy ought to be reviewed. And I think the process has begun, at least, to review that. What I personally prefer to look at is: Where are we funding K-12 today in comparison to where we funded it a year ago, where we funded it two years ago?” AP: What, if anything, should the state do to develop pre-kindergarten programs? Reeves: “The one thing I think everyone agrees on is we’re not going to go from no state funding for pre-K to fully funding a 13th or 14th grade, which is going to cost $350 million. We’re not going to do that overnight. We don’t have sufficient resources

Charters are public schools that are free from some state regulations. They often have different approaches to academics or discipline. to do that. But what we can do is look at the delivery mechanism that’s currently in place and try to find ways to improve upon it and try to find ways to ensure that those kids that are in day cares, are in other areas, are coming to kindergarten in the most prepared way possible.” AP: What kind of economic development proposals will you have this session? Reeves: “The thing that we’ve said repeatedly is: Government does not create jobs. Government simply creates an environment which encourages the private sector to invest capital and create jobs. And so what you’ll see from us are proposals and support of legislation that helps create that environment which encourages the public sector to want to come to Mis-

sissippi and invest capital and create jobs. But it’s also about creating that environment which encourages those businesses that currently operate here to invest more of their capital to expand their business. ... We’ve got to focus not only on the rat race of going out and recruiting new industry to come into Mississippi, but also taking those existing businesses and ensuring that we’re creating an environment which encourages them to build and expand their workforce.” AP: Neither the governor nor the Joint Legislative Budget Committee recommends raises for state employees. Should the employees ever expect to get a raise? Reeves: “I think there’s an awful lot of employees out there that deserve more compensation for

what they do. And I think you’ll find that there are an awful lot of state employees out there that have received raises in the past. ... Some of the very same agency heads that complain about the amount of monies they receive, how they’re going to have to shut down their agency or fire employees are the very same ones, perhaps, that are giving significant raises to their employees. And I’m not talking about 2 and 3 percent raises here. I’m talking in terms of larger, significant dollar amounts to their employees. ... I’m not saying that giving raises is always bad, but what we like to see is if you’re giving raises — and it’s harder for smaller agencies, I’m really looking at the bigger agencies — if you’re going to reward employees for doing a good job and therefore find ways to cut expenses in other areas of your budget, then that’s justified. But where I think we have problems is when all expenses are going up and agency heads are giving raises.”

Americans rebuilding in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy are buying cars to replace those lost in the storm. That trend gave auto sales a boost in November and is expected to have done so again last month. J.D. Power and LMC Automotive are forecasting that U.S. auto sales grew 14 percent in December from a year earlier. Look for the final figures today when automakers report December sales figures.

Fed meeting minutes

Eye on unemployment

The Federal Reserve is scheduled today to release minutes of a meeting held by its policymakers last month. After the two-day meeting in early December, the central bank announced plans to keep interest rates ultra-low at least until the national unemployment rate drops below 6.5 percent, a threshold the bank believes may not be crossed until the end of 2015. Will the minutes of the Fedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting help Wall Street glean any new insights into the central bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strategy?

Economists are expecting that applications for unemployment benefits increased last week. The consensus forecast calls for unemployment claims to be up less than 2 percent to 355,000 from the previous week. Weekly applications for unemployment benefits, due out today, have mostly fluctuated this year between 360,000 and 390,000. They are a proxy for layoffs. Unemployment remains high and companies remain reluctant to ramp up hiring.

Irish, Tide arrive for title game more than a month ago, the hype growing with each day. “Going to play the national championship game in Miami, it’s not like any trip that they’ve had before,” Kelly said. “It’s not like any trip that I’ve had before. And so there was an anticipation that when we got on the buses to the airport that they were really excited about this trip. It’s something that you dream about when you play this game and when you coach this game.” For Notre Dame — at least for this current batch of Fighting Irish — this is all new, as one of the game’s most storied programs has

The Associated Press

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Brian Kelly walked off the tarmac, hopped aboard one of Notre Dame’s team buses that bore his image on the side and grinned broadly as he sat in the driver’s seat. Soon, the Notre Dame coach will know if his team — or Alabama — will finish college football’s season in that proverbial spot. The top-ranked Fighting Irish landed in South Florida on Wednesday, not long before the arrival of the secondranked Crimson Tide. The teams meet Monday night to decide the BCS championship, a matchup that was set

not won the national title since the 1988 season. For Alabama, the hubbub that goes with the BCS title game is familiar, as the Tide is trying to win its second straight crown and third in four years. And for Alabama coach Nick Saban, it was a return to his former home. Saban coached the Miami Dolphins before going to the Crimson Tide, famously saying toward the end of his tenure in South Florida that he wasn’t “going to be the Alabama coach.” He was hired by the Tide not long afterward. Yet on Wednesday, Saban — first off the Alabama plane — was greeted like a visiting

dignitary, with about a dozen TV cameras and twice that many reporters on hand to record the event. “It’s great to be back in South Florida,” he said. “It’s the first time we’ve been to the Orange Bowl. I’m sure these people here are going to do a great job of providing tremendous hospitality for our players and our entire family.” Grand welcomes were executed for both teams, including water cannon sprays over their planes and greetings from local officials and members of the Orange Bowl Please see BCS | 9

Wildcats, Ducks prime matchup in Fiesta Bowl The Associated Press

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Kansas State and Oregon were in perfect position at the start of Nov. 17, Nos. 1 and 2 in the BCS standings, seemingly on a crash course toward the national championship game. By day’s end, the Wildcats had been run over by Baylor, the Ducks lost a heartbreaker to Stanford and both of their national title hopes were all but gone. Disappointing? Certainly. Every team goes into the season hoping to play for a national championship and to have it snatched away so late in the season is unquestionably a letdown. Unlike many teams in college football, Kansas State and Oregon ended up with a nice consolation prize: A trip to the Valley of the Sun to face each in the Fiesta Bowl. “This game could have been for the national championship,” Oregon linebacker Boseko Lokombo said. “A couple weeks ago, that’s where we were both headed.” They’re headed to the desert instead, setting up one of the most anticipated games this bowl season. A year ago, the Fiesta Bowl hit it big with Oklahoma State and Stanford, two high-profile programs that didn’t disappoint, putting on an offensive show won by the Cowboys 41-38 in overtime. This year’s game, Thursday night at University of Phoenix Stadium, has the potential to be even better. Oregon (11-1) is in its fourth straight BCS bowl game under coach Chip Kelly, following a trip to the 2011 BCS championship game and two Rose Bowls, including the program’s first win in the Granddaddy of Them All in 95 years last season. The Ducks fly fast, overwhelming opponents with where-did-they-allcome-from speed, their touchdown drives measured not in minutes but seconds. Oregon has one of the nation’s most explosive running back tandems in Kenjon Barner and DeAnthony Thomas, threats to score on every touch, and redshirt freshman quarterback Marcus Mariota played well beyond his years while proving to be a dynamic force in his own right. The Ducks were second nationally with 50.83 points and 323.25 yards rushing per game and fourth in total offense at 550.08. “Basically, only one team stopped them the entire year and that was Stanford,” Kansas State defensive coordinator Tom Hayes said. “It’s a challenge. We need to meet the challenge if we have any wishes for a victory.” It doesn’t figure to be any easier for Oregon going against Kansas State (11-1) in its second resurrection under coach Bill Snyder. The studious coach orchestrated one of college football’s greatest turnarounds his first stint in the Little Apple, turning a program that had lost more games than any other into a national championship contender. After a three-year retirement, Snyder again lifted the Wildcats out of the doldrums, leading them to a bowl game his second season, 10 wins a year ago and all the way back to national prominence this season. Fitting the mold of their 73-year-old coach, the Wildcats are meticulously prepared and run Snyder’s schemes to near perfection. Kansas State doesn’t play nearly as fast as the Ducks, but can put up points in a hurry — ninth nationally with 40.67 per game — and is led by a Heisman Trophy finalist, do-everything senior quarterback Collin Klein.

Georgia’s 12-win season marred by lost title The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Georgia players are still talking about how close they came to playing in Monday night’s national championship game. Sure, Tuesday’s 45-31 Capital One Bowl win over Nebraska was nice, but it wasn’t for the national title. The Bulldogs are still feeling the aftershocks from their 32-28 loss in the Southeastern Conference championship game to Alabama last month that ended with Georgia on the Crimson Tide’s 5-yard line. Quarterback Aaron Murray said that loss won’t be forgotten. “Obviously the loss was

tough, to come that close to winning the SEC championship and then being able to play for the national championship,” Murray said. “I know it probably lingered in some of our minds but the best thing to do after a loss is to get back out there and play and to get a victory.” Murray said No. 6 Georgia’s win over Nebraska “definitely eased the pain” from a game “everybody will remember forever just because it was so close and it came down to the last play.” Coach Mark Richt said the loss to Alabama left the Bulldogs with something to prove against Nebraska.

“We wanted to win this game to prove, to ourselves really, that we are one of the better teams in the country,” Richt said. Georgia (12-2) became only the third team in school history to reach 12 wins. Now some of the team’s biggest names must decide if they will enter the NFL draft. Murray, who threw five TD passes against Nebraska, linebackers Jarvis Jones and Alec Ogletree and other juniors must decide if they will enter the NFL draft. Jones is widely projected as a high first-round selection. He had two first-half sacks to give him a school record 14.5

for the season, breaking David Pollack’s old mark of 14 in 2002. Richt said he wanted the juniors to take their time and “make their heart be in their decision.” “If these guys choose to stay, I’m thrilled obviously, but if they choose to go I’m their No. 1 fan ether way because I just want what’s best for them,” Richt said. “I can’t say what’s best for them. They have to figure out for themselves. They’re grown men now.” Murray, a fourth-year junior, already has graduated and played this season as a Please see GEORGIA | 9

Tide. “Both very storied programs, a bunch of national championships and we’re excited to compete with the best because that’s how you become the best.” And work is left in both Notre Dame’s and Alabama’s quest to finish at No. 1. Both teams are set to return to the practice field on Thursday, with workouts scheduled throughout the remainder of the week. “We’ve got to do a little work this week,” Kelly said. “But we feel good about our preparation.” Dozens of players, coaches and guests on the Notre Dame

flight took photos of the mass of reporters, Broward Sheriff’s officers and fans when they deplaned, a few carrying video cameras and a couple even tossed oranges — a nod to the Orange Bowl Committee — from one hand to another. Kelly said Notre Dame will find ways to mix fun and relaxation with the element of it being a business trip as well. “All the people that were looking out the window were pretty much amazed to see the kind of draw that this game has,” Kelly said. On the Alabama side, AllAmerican center Barrett Jones

wore a walking boot to protect the left foot he sprained during the SEC championship but said he was ready to go. Reserve offensive lineman Arie Koundjio had to be treated for dehydration when the plane landed, and tight end Harrison Jones did not travel with the team for what Saban called medical reasons. He’s expected to arrive Thursday. The other Tide players seemed focused. “We want to reach this point,” said defensive lineman Damion Square, who was recruited by Notre Dame. “To be here is great, but we have to finish the job.”

tory. The win over Nebraska was Georgia’s eighth game with at least 40 points. It scored a school-record 529 points and averaged 37.8 points, another school record. A pair of freshman running backs, Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall, surpassed the most optimistic expectations. Gurley led the Bulldogs with 1,385 yards rushing and 17 touchdowns, including 125 yards and one touchdown against Nebraska. Marshall had 759 yards rushing and eight touchdowns.

Murray’s 3,898 yards passing set another Georgia record, topping Eric Zeier’s 3,525 yards in 1993. Murray regrouped after two early interceptions against Nebraska. He had 36 touchdown passes and only 10 interceptions for the season. “I’m real proud of Aaron and the job he did,” Richt said. “He had a couple things go not exactly the way he wanted them to go. He had a couple picks early and just hung in there, very resilient, and finished.”

Georgia began the season with Ogletree and three other defensive starters suspended by Richt. The defense regrouped for a 17-9 win over previously undefeated Florida. The game followed a challenge from senior safety Shawn Williams, who said the defense was playing soft. Georgia held Nebraska to seven second-half points. Ogletree had 13 tackles, three for losses, and a sack. Williams had 11 tackles and a blocked punt.

graduate student. He said the bowl game would not play a role in his decision. “I think I’m going to sit down with my parents, draw up the pros and cons and go from there,” Murray said. “Jarvis and I are blessed to be in this position to make the tough decision.” Georgia overcame injuries to receivers Michael Bennett and Marlon Brown to finish with the most points in school his-

FIESTA CONTINUED FROM 8

This is the Wildcats’ 14th bowl appearance under Snyder and with a win over Oregon, they can finish with the first 12-win season in school history. “Obviously, you can’t help as a coach (but) ad-

mire what Coach Snyder has done,” Kelly said. “He had an opportunity when he first got to K-State that he created a legacy that I don’t think anybody could ever imagine when he first took over that program, what one man could do to a univer-

Wisdom

10 • Daily Corinthian

Horoscopes Tomorrow’s fortuitous alignment puts Mars in hero mode and makes a marvelous benefactor of Jupiter. Today’s task is simply to get ready. Know what you want and, more importantly, why. What feeling are you hoping to experience by acquiring it? The practical Virgo moon rules most of the day, helping you work out the answers to these questions. ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s a challenge before you. It all boils down to a question. Will you do what others expect of you, or will you let yourself do the things you need to do in order to succeed? TAURUS (April 20May 20). You find a need, fill it and learn from the experience. If you can get your costs down and turn a profit, the whole process could be quite lucrative for you -- possibly even the start of a new income stream. GEMINI (May 21June 21). One hour a day may not seem like a lot, but over time it will be enough to write a novel, lose weight or complete another amazing feat that otherwise would rest solidly in the “not going to happen” category. CANCER (June 22-July

22). Though friends often do activities together, an activity companion is not the same thing as a friend. Knowing how people fit into your life and how you fit into theirs makes for smooth relations. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). At many points in your life, you have been attracted to the wrong kinds of people. They let you serve them and undervalued your contribution. They pulled rank on you when no rank was earned. That all changes this year. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If you’re single and want to ask someone out on a date, just ask. This is your time. Better to make something happen, good or bad, than to wait around wondering whether anything ever could. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re social, and you love people. They do need to pull their own weight in a conversation, though; otherwise, things get tiresome. It’s even more tiresome if they won’t pass the conversational ball. Avoid those types! SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). Things have changed in your industry. There are more tools available to you now than ever before. You’ll spend your free time brushing

up on the latest exciting advances. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Why worry? Answer: No reason. The chances of the worst-case scenario actually happening are practically zilch, and even if the worst did occur, you’d find a way to get through it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You may not be conscious of your search for more people like you, but the success of finding someone isn’t lost on you, either. It’s something you’ll talk about later: the day you met so-and-so. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). When change happens, it happens in an instant. The thing is, you never know which instant. So keep the faith and keep moving forward. You’re closer than you think. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be wide awake among people who are not living consciously. Should you wake up these sleepwalkers, too? The best way to do that is to stay aware. The ones who are supposed to notice will. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 3). Do you feel it? Some deep greatness is coming to the surface. You will do wonderful things this year. In the

next six weeks, you’ll bounce between organization and action. New friends point the way to a successful business venture. Love’s promises and domestic practicalities mesh beautifully in the spring. Gemini and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 17, 11, 4, 37 and 28. RESOLUTIONS BY SIGN: A great resolution, when accomplished, will have a positive effect on many different parts of your life. Furthermore, it will have a positive effect on others. Here’s the one you’re likely to keep all year. ARIES and SCORPIO: Do it your way. Don’t start out with the compromised version. TAURUS and CAPRICORN: Let go of things. Saving, collecting or owning too much makes life cumbersome. This is true of people, emotional baggage and material goods alike. GEMINI: Promote kindness everywhere. CANCER: Do what you’re not good at a few times a week. This is your year to get good at more things. LEO: Choose worthy problems to solve, the kind that excite you and the kind that haven’t already been solved by thousands of others.

Airman Audree Curry graduates basic training Special to the Daily Corinthian

Air Force Airman 1st Class Audree L. Curry graduated from basic military training at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. The air-

man completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness, and basic warfare principles and skills.

Airmen who complete basic training earn four credits toward an associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force. Curry is the daughter

of Lynn Reece of Rienzi. She graduated from a home school program in 2009. She earned an associate degree in 2011 from Northeast Mississippi Community College.

Seaman Annabeth Phillips completes basic training Special to the Daily Corinthian

Navy Seaman Apprentice Annabeth L. Phillips, daughter of Maureen J. and Robert J. Sutphin of Corinth, recently completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eight-

week program, Phillips completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety. An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness.

The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Stations.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each re-

cruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment. Its distinctly ‘‘Navy’’ flavor was designed to takeinto account what it means to be a Sailor. Phillips is a 2010 graduate of Kossuth High School.

Today In History Today is Thursday, Jan. 3, the third day of 2013. There are 362 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 3, 1938, the March of Dimes campaign to fight polio was established by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who himself had been afflicted with the crippling disease.

On this date: In 1521, Martin Luther was excommunicated from the Roman Catholic Church by Pope Leo X. In 1777, Gen. George Washington’s army routed the British in the Battle of Princeton, N.J. In 1861, more than two weeks before Georgia seceded from the Union, the state militia seized Fort Pulaski at the order of Gov. Joseph E. Brown. The Delaware House and Senate voted to oppose secession from the Union. In 1868, the Meiji Restoration re-established the authority of Japan’s emperor and heralded the fall of the military rulers known as shoguns. In 1911, the first postal savings banks were opened by the U.S. Post Office. (The banks were abolished in 1966.)

In 1949, in a pair of rulings, the U.S. Supreme Court said that states had the right to ban closed shops. In 1959, Alaska became the 49th state as President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a proclamation. In 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower announced the United States was formally terminating diplomatic and consular relations with Cuba. In 1967, Jack Ruby, the man who shot and killed accused presidential assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, died in a Dallas hospital. In 1980, conservationist Joy Adamson, author of “Born Free,” was killed in northern Kenya by a former employee. In 1990, ousted Panamanian leader Manuel Noriega surrendered to U.S. forces, 10 days after taking refuge in the Vatican’s diplomatic mission. In 1993, President George H.W. Bush and Russian President Boris Yeltsin signed the START II missile-reduction treaty in Moscow. (However, the agreement ultimately fell apart.) Ten years ago: Taking a brief timeout from his two-week vacation, President George W. Bush visited Fort Hood in Texas,

where he rallied Army troops as the nation faced the prospect of war with Iraq. David Westerfield, the man who’d kidnapped and murdered 7-year-old neighbor Danielle van Dam, was sentenced to death by a judge in San Diego. No. 2 Ohio State won its first championship in 34 years, beating No. 1 Miami 31-24 in the Fiesta Bowl. Five years ago: Sen. Barack Obama won Democratic caucuses in Iowa, while Mike Huckabee won Republican caucuses. After nearly 27 years in prison, Texas inmate Charles Chatman was set free by a judge because of new DNA evidence showing he’d been wrongly convicted of rape. Pop star Britney Spears was hospitalized after a child custody dispute with exhusband Kevin Federline resulted in an hours-long standoff with police. The No. 8 Kansas Jayhawks won the Orange Bowl by defeating No. 5 Virginia Tech 24-21. One year ago: The Iowa Republican Party held its caucuses; although Mitt Romney was originally considered the winner by an extremely narrow eight-vote margin, officials later said that Rick Santorum had in fact beaten Romney by 34 votes; however, the party refused to declare a win-

ner, saying that eight precincts had never turned in certified results. In the Democratic caucuses, President Barack Obama ran unopposed. Today’s Birthdays: Record producer Sir George Martin is 87. Actor Robert Loggia is 83. Actor Dabney Coleman is 81. Journalistauthor Betty Rollin is 77. Hockey Hall-of-Famer Bobby Hull is 74. Singersongwriter-producer Van Dyke Parks is 70.

Family reconciliation stalls after exchange DEAR ABBY: I cut my father out of my life years ago, after he declared he could not support my decision to adopt three children from a Russian orphanage with my longtime companion. The adoption announcement coincided with my “coming out” to Dad, who is now married to his third wife. It must have been a lot for him to take in at one time. He told me plainly that he could not support my decision because he could not “understand” it. He has never met our children, and does not acknowledge them as his grandchildren. This year on Father’s Day, I sent him a card and he replied by email that he was glad to hear from me and he hoped for a reconciliation, but was not sure how to go about it. I responded by email that I was cautiously optimistic that we could reignite a respectful relationship. I haven’t heard back from him and I suspect it’s because he saw that I had changed my last name from his to my husband’s, a decision I made after our marriage. My father was not aware that I had gotten married. I think I have overwhelmed him again, which has rendered him speechless. Please advise me on how to proceed. — PRODIGAL SON IN CALIFORNIA DEAR SON: Call your father, tell him you love him and that you would like to schedule a visit with him -- but would like to send him some reading material before you do. Then contact PFLAG (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays). The phone number is 202-467-8180 and you’ll find them on the Internet at www.pflag.org. They will be happy to provide you with literature for your dad to help him “understand.” Frankly, he has my sympathy because before you hit him with the “double whammy,” he didn’t have a clue about who you really are. Whether your name change overwhelmed him or not is irrelevant. The ball is now in your court, so if you want to have a hope of a relationship with your father, you will have to make the next move.

DEAR ABBY: Two years ago, I proposed to the woman who Abigail c h a n g e d Van Buren me for the betDear Abby ter. I love her with all my heart, but after we had been engaged for only four days everything came to a stop. Her mother was against the marriage, and my fiancee wasn’t strong enough to follow her heart. We had been in a relationship for more than nine years, most of it long distance except for the last two years. I couldn’t understand her change of heart, and I tried with all my might to find some middle ground. “Claudette” has three children from her first marriage, and I had become a part of their lives and an important family friend. After getting no reason for calling off the wedding, I began texting her for an answer only to be arrested for cyberstalking. I know in my heart from letters sent back and forth that this wasn’t Claudette’s idea, but I can’t let go. I know she’s the one for me. We made a great couple, but her mother couldn’t stand the fact that we were so close. How do I let her go? —GRIEVING IN FLORIDA DEAR GRIEVING: You may not believe this, but you’re a lucky man. It may take the help of a psychologist for you to disengage emotionally and move on. Given that you wound up in trouble with the law, this would be a wise decision. It might also help to envision what it would have been like being married not only to Claudette, but also to her mother – because they appear to be joined at the hip, and the part that’s doing the thinking isn’t your former fiancee. This may be the reason that her first marriage failed. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
