Holiday postal shipping deadline nears BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Holiday shipping deadlines are near as Christmas looms on the calendar. The Corinth Post Office has seen steady traffic this month as people mail gift packages and Christmas cards. “It was really busy on Monday,” said Postmaster Kevin Byers. “We see a lot of people around the noon hour and from 4 to 5 in the afternoon.” The postal service expects this coming Monday to be the busi-

est day of the season at post offices across the country. Post offices in Corinth, Booneville and Ripley will offer extended hours for the last-minute customers on Saturday, Dec. 22, which will be the last chance to get a gift into the mail by Express Mail. Those post offices will stay open until 2 p.m. that day. Deadlines for other mailing services are coming up over the course of the next week. Byers said today is the last day for Parcel Post packages. First Class Mail deadline is Thursday, Dec.

20, and Priority Mail deadline is Friday, Dec. 21. “All of the military deadlines have passed,” said Byers. Priority Mail packaging is available at no charge, while bubble wrap and larger boxes are available to purchase. Byers said one of the most important things to do when sending a gift package is to include the address of the sender and recipient inside. That way it can still make it to the recipient if something happens to the package.

The postmaster said it’s important to use a complete address with ZIP code. The tollfree 1-800-ask-usps is available for ZIP code information. He said the post office is seeing a number of pieces of mail come through addressed to only a name and “Corinth, MS” with no street address. The post office will be open on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. This year’s Christmas stamps include the Santa and sleigh and the holy family, Byers said.

The largest election day survey of Mississippi voters found that most had what would be an acceptable form of voter identification as they went to the polls. Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann discussed the results this week and detailed the administrative rules for the voter ID requirement, which is yet to be approved by the U.S. Department of Justice. The survey found that 98.3 percent of the almost 6,000 voters approached on Nov. 6 by Edison Research reported having at least one of the eight forms of photo ID that would be required. Respondents with none of those forms of ID were 0.8 percent. The remainder did not answer the question. “The survey helps us accurately gauge the number and profile of the voters we need to reach,” said Hosemann. “I am encouraged the survey found less than 1 percent of the voters did not have a photo ID. Less than 1 percent is a manageable number for implementing constitutional voter ID.” He said identification will be available at no charge to those who need it. Among those surveyed at 30 locations, 97 percent of white voters and 84 percent of black voters held a valid driver’s license. A state-issued photo i.d. card was the second most commonly held, at 45 percent. The Secretary of State’s Office has entered into an agreement with the Department of Vital Statistics to allow circuit clerks to verify birth records of voters who cannot provide these materials at no cost to

The spirit of giving is alive and well in the Crossroads area as donations continue to arrive daily for the 17th Annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian 2012 Christmas Basket Fund. The civic club and newspaper have set a $20,000 community fundraising goal this year so 1,000 food baskets can be given away to local families at 8 a.m.on Saturday, Dec. 15 at the Crossroads Arena. The total now stands at $9,430, meaning $10,570 still needs to be raised from the community as there will be no corporate match this year. Recent donations include $300 from Randall and Penny Long in memory of Velma Long; $250 from Roger Bain in memory of Peggy Bain and Bob Austin; $25 from Ladies 1A Shiloh Baptist Church in memory of Beverly Kennedy and

Two local funeral homes on Saturday are partnering with the American Legion Post 6 in an effort to provide food for hungry families this holiday season. The Jingle Bell Ride & Food Drive, a shared effort of McPeters and Magnolia funeral homes, will be held in conjunction with Saturday’s Wreaths Across America ceremony. “We are honored to partner with Wreaths Across America,” said Judy McPeters. “To sponsor this ride that benefits the needy is part of our community outreach and our support for those in our community less fortunate than we are.” All motorbike riders are welcome to join the Jingle Bell Ride. The fee for registration is at least three cans of food. The canned goods will be donated to a local food pantry. Registration for the ride begins at 10 a.m. at Corinth National Cemetery before the Wreaths Across America ceremony. It will begin immedi-

en when contacted,” said drive chairman Steve Icardi. Cost of the drive is $20,000 with $9,430 collected as of Friday. This year is the first without a corporate sponsor match. “We are getting closer to our goal, and I believe we will get there,” added Icardi. High school volunteers along

with some Boy Scouts helped Rotary members assemble boxes on Thursday night. Financial contributions to the program can be made in memory or in honor of friends, co-workers or family members. Acknowledgments appear each Please see GIVEAWAY | 2A

dren — ages kindergarten through sixth grade — will take individuals through the events leading up to the birth of Jesus. Over 130 church volunteers are also taking part in the secondyear production. “The purpose is to deliver the true and great story of Christmas,” said Kimberly Grantham, who is directing the event along with husband Brett. “We have been very blessed to do it and want everyone just to come experience the event.” The six-scene experience includes an angel appearing to Mary, the mother of Jesus. A new scene involves an angel also appearing to Joseph, telling him to not be afraid to take Mary as his wife. “Joseph's role in the story sometimes gets lost,” added

Grantham. An expanded shepherd scene is also new this year. People are transformed back in time during Jesus' birth in a stable followed by angels appearing to shepherds keeping watch over their flock. A scene of King Herod sending out wise men along with the wise men bowing to a young Jesus is also part of the live nativity that features two live babes in swaddling clothes. “The kids seem to understand that this is important,” said the co-director. “They are not playing, but depicting the gospel.” Real animals such as camels, donkeys, cows and sheep transport the community back in time of telling the Christmas story. Those who attend need to park at the Sportsplex. The church will have buses

to transport 20-25 people at a time back to the church. Once at the church, groups will be greeted in the fellowship hall and then a guide will lead them through the scenes. Grantham is taking the positive route when asked about rain in the forecast for Saturday. Christmas ALIVE will still take place if the rain does come, according to Grantham. “That's something we can't do anything about,” she said. “It's not going to rain between 5-8 p.m. and if it does, it will be part of God's plan … we are looking forward to the two nights and the amazing statement God is going to make.” A chili supper is scheduled for both nights. Donations received from the supper will go to benefit the Lighthouse Foundation Toy Store.

Donations can be the perfect time to make a holiday tribute to a special person. Contributions can be made “In honor of” someone living or “in memory of” someone who has passed. They can be family or friends, co-workers, employees, bosses or even groups who have made an

impact on a person’s life. All tributes will be published in the Daily Corinthian until Christmas Day. Donations can be brought to the newspaper office at 1607 Harper Road or mailed to Daily Corinthian, Attn: Christmas Basket Fund. P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, Miss. 38835.

etery for the Wreathes Across America ceremony — which coincides with the national event held at Arlington National Cemetery. Last year over 400 wreaths were placed at the cemetery. Organizers expect to top that number on Saturday. Members of American Legion Post 6, Ladies Auxiliary, Sons of American Legion and Legion Riders all took orders for the event until the sponsor deadline

in mid-November. The wreathes are handmade in Maine. Some will be placed on specific graves and others will be placed randomly. Wreathes across America was started by Maine businessman Morrill Worcester in 1992. Anyone who wants to help with the laying of the wreaths should show up at the cemetery on Saturday.

Corinth, Miss.

Airline industry’s fee-for-all BY JIM HIGHTOWER Those who say we should run government like a business must not be frequent flyers. Flying, which was once a fairly good experience, now amounts to being herded, harassed, barked at, and squeezed — while being dunned every step of the way for onerous fees. Make a reservation? Do it yourself, or pay extra. Check a bag? The fee for that is so pricey that most passengers have had to turn themselves into mules, toting their full load on board — which the airlines view as a new fee opportunity, planning to charge us for storing the stuff we schlep onto the plane. What’s next — a charge to use the toilet? Yes! Here’s the CEO of Ryanair in Europe: “One thing we are looking at again is the possibility of maybe putting a coin slot on the toilet door.” After all, mused another Ryanair exec, a toilet tax would be voluntary, since passengers have the option of not using the toilet. Even though the airlines are in the black again and keep raising their ticket prices (three times this year alone), they still keep jacking up fees ... because they can. It’s free money they can simply lift out of travelers’ wallets. “We’re all about finding ways of raising discretionary revenue,” gloated the chief of Ryanair. Nearly every airline these days is addicted to fees, and the already huge take is growing — these add-ons will pluck $36 billion dollars from us customers this year, $4 billion more than last year. Is there a tipping point at which consumer grumbling about these gouges turns to rebellion? A group called AirFareWatchDog.com thinks so. Noting that airlines are making profits again, it reports that the flying public has had it up to here with fees. Delta, for one, has responded. Not by cutting fees, but by excluding from its public reports the full amount of fee revenue it takes from us. (Daily Corinthian and OtherWords columnist Jim Hightower is a radio commentator, writer, and public speaker. He’s also editor of the populist newsletter, The Hightower Lowdown.)

Prayer for today God of abundance, help us live today trusting that there will be enough for tomorrow. Your sources have no end. Teach us to share our resources, believing that the more we give, the more you will provide for all. Amen.

Court considers death penalty and intent BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. JACKSON — Death row inmate Bobby Batiste has left the Mississippi Supreme Court in a quandary over intent. In Mississippi, capital murder is defined as murder combined with another crime, called an underlying felony. In this case, it is robbery. Yet, Batiste’s attorney told the court this past week that Batiste didn’t intend to steal a wallet hours after he beat his roommate to death. Prosecutors said intent was an issue for the jury. Batiste’s attorney said had the jury be instructed about intent, Steiner said Batiste might have been convicted of murder or manslaughter and avoided a death sentence. Presiding Justice Jess Dickinson summed it up for the Supreme Court: “This case has brought forward an issue we haven’t addressed before.” Dickinson said jurors were presented a “good circumstantial evidence case,” in that Batiste was caught with the victim’s property and they can infer the intent.

Sitting in the room at the Jack Kemp Leadership Award dinner last week, listening to Senator Marco Rubio, Florida Republican, and Rep. Paul Ryan, Wisconsin Republican and of late the GOP vice presidential candidate, I sensed more than a generational shift in party leadership. It was a “back to the future” moment as the mostly, but not exclusively, conservative gathering considered the optimism that defined Kemp, the late Buffalo congressman, former vice presidential candidate, HUD secretary and enterprise zone promoter. At my table were two African-American Republicans who answered the familiar question about how Republicans can win a larger percentage of the minority vote. “Just show up,” said one, who works as a Republican staffer on Capitol Hill. The other nodded in agreement. Kemp showed up, visiting public housing and other places Republicans often refer to disparagingly. Shootings sometimes occur there, you know, and drugs. You

had claimed self-defense — that Galanis attacked him first. Batiste also said Galanis called him a bad name and Batiste struck out in the heat of passion. When Alison Steiner with the Office of Capital Defense Counsel said robbery was not the intent of Batiste. Steiner said prosecutors during Batiste’s trial said they didn’t have to prove intent and the trial judge wouldn’t let the defense raise it. Batiste claimed prosecutors presented no evidence to when and how he came into possession of the victim’s wallet. Steiner said Batiste told authorities he panicked after hitting his roommate and left to do some personal business, see his girlfriend and other friends. He later returned to the apartment, saw the blood and decided to clean up. In cleaning up, Steiner said Batiste got Galanis’ wallet along with other bloody items. Steiner said the murder and the robbery were not linked in what the courts have called a “continuous chain of events.” “This jury was told intent

was irrelevant. Intent must be proven and the jury must not have the impression that intent was irrelevant,” Steiner said. Assistant Attorney General Jason Davis told the court that the issue was there for the jury to decide. He said the jury was fully instructed on the elements of robbery. “That’s what the jury is to determine,” Davis said. “That’s what they did. There was no error at all. We are being asked to go along with the series of events as Mr. Batiste said. We cannot accept anything Mr. Batiste said as true.” The alleged break in the series of events — or “continuous chain of events” — is what appeared to concern Dickinson and some other justices. Davis said the Supreme Court should uphold the jury’s verdict because, as he said, the jury weighed all the facts and “clearly supporter that the robbery occurred.” (Daily Corinthian columnist Jack Elliott is writer for the Associated Press based in Jackson.)

“Doesn’t the jury have the right to decide that at the time of the murder that he had intent to rob?” Dickinson said. Mississippi law lists a variety of underlying felonies and circumstances by which prosecutors can seek a death sentence — murder during a robbery is one along with rape, burglary, kidnapping, arson, sexual battery and others. Mississippi law does not specifically address intent — the state of mind accompanying an act especially a forbidden act, according to Black’s Law Dictionary. What the court decides could prompt lawmakers to take a look at a capital punishment law unchanged for 35 years. Batiste, of Preston, was sentenced to death in 2009 in Oktibbeha County for killing his roommate, Andreas Galanis of Biloxi. Both were students at Mississippi State University. Prosecutors say Galanis died from a blow to the head after the two got into a fight at their off-campus apartment. There were different explanations what occurred in the apartment. Batiste

hear about it on the local news. When Rubio spoke about these forgotten (by Cal Republicans) Thomas Americans, the waiters Columnist paused for a moment to listen. Rubio mentioned his parents who came to America with little and worked in the “service industry” so they could provide for their children, who have turned out well. Rubio’s message was an appeal that goes beyond cable TV sound bites and white America. Kemp didn’t view America in categories. Neither did he identify them with hyphens. He saw the potential for one America in which race and class would be complementary, not divisive. If Republicans are looking for an example of how this works out practically, they can rewind to the 1988 Republican National Convention in New Orleans where more black people attended a Kemp reception than were visible among delegates in the Superdome. Republicans remain nos-

talgic for Ronald Reagan, perhaps the most optimistic president in Republican history. Even in his final “letter to the American people,” announcing he had Alzheimer’s disease, Reagan spoke of his great love for this country and his optimism for its future. That optimism was catchy. Reagan ignited faith in the American people that they, better than government, could improve their lives. Zig Ziglar, who died last month at age 86, was one of the best motivational speakers in that genre. Ziglar could fire up an audience with his “Born to Win” seminars and “Success Rallies.” This Ziglar zinger is one that Republicans should adopt: “You can get everything in life you want if you will just help other people get what they want.” Republican principles work, but they must be shown to work, not just talked about, if they are to be embraced by people who now reject them because Republicans don’t “show up” like Jack Kemp did. Too many Republicans are known for what they oppose, not for what they propose. For too many, the

power of positive thinking has been turned into the weakness of negative thinking and opposition to the liberal agenda. Jack Kemp once told me, “You don’t beat a thesis with an antithesis; you beat it with a better thesis.” That must be the “new” Republican theme if the party wants to secure future victories. Jack Kemp understood this. I sense Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan do, too. Kemp, after all, was Ryan’s mentor and inspiration. Moses led the ancient Israelites out of Egypt, not by looking back, but by pointing the way to a “Promised Land.” Republicans can do the same. Kemp and Reagan would agree. Johnny Mercer wrote, “You’ve got to accentuate the positive. Eliminate the negative Latch on to the affirmative, don’t mess with Mister In-between.” Republicans need to start “singing” from this songbook. Hope and a positive attitude are the keys to anyone’s success, including a political party. (Readers may e-mail Daily Corinthian columnist Cal Thomas at tmseditors@tribune.com.)

Ex-county official, relatives sentenced GULFPORT — A former Hancock County road department manager and his wife and brother have been sentenced to prison in a Hurricane Katrina kickback case. The Sea Coast Echo reports that U.S. District Judge Sul Ozerden in Gulfport sentenced Roger Ladner, the former road manager, to five years during a hearing Thursday. Ladner also was ordered to pay $1.13 million in restitution and was fined $25,000. Ladner’s wife, Sharon, was sentenced to two years. His brother, Billy Wayne Ladner, got just

over three years. Another brother was to be sentenced later in the day. Prosecutors say Roger Ladner was given the authority to award millions of dollars in ditchcleaning contracts after Katrina. He was accused of giving those contracts to companies controlled by him or relatives.

Union officer charged with forged checks JACKSON — A union officer in Mississippi has been charged with possessing and using forged checks from United Government Security Officers of America. Records filed in U.S. District Court in south Mississippi say Paulette McClure used the checks

between September 2009 and March 2010. The court records say she had 33 forged checks. Records also say she cashed some of the checks for a total of about $8,100. She was an officer for the union office in Claiborne County. Court records didn’t list an attorney. Her phone number was not immediately available.

Adam tells The Sea Coast Echo that Jessie Landry, 42, and Aleisa Diaz Landry, 33, were arrested early Thursday. They are suspected in the Dec. 6 robbery of Keesler Federal Credit Union in Diamondhead, Miss. Local authorities had dubbed them “Bonnie and Clyde.” They were arrested in Bogalusa, La. It wasn’t immediately clear if the couple had an attorney. Adam said extradition is pending.

Ex-water manager pleads guilty ABERDEEN — The former manager of the North Lee County Water Association has pleaded guilty to making false

statements about water tests. Dan Durham, 66, pleaded guilty this week in U.S. District Court in Aberdeen to a criminal information, a formal charge made without a grand jury indictment. The information alleges that Durham made false statements about water sample collections, including by falsely reporting the amount of “free chlorine” in a sample. Durham, who was forced to resign from his post in October 2011 amid employees’ allegations of corruption, appeared before U.S. District Court Judge Sharion Aycock. The government accused Durham of one

count of intentionally making false or fictitious statements to public agencies about water samples supposedly taken at sites throughout the water district. Tests actually were taken at one location, 551 County Road 503, which is a rural Guntown address. Durham also faces up to a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release. He will not be sentenced until a report is completed for Aycock to use when she considers his punishment. For his guilty plea Wednesday, the government agreed not to charge him with any other crimes related to the false statements.

Vatican: World not ending Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — The Vatican's top astronomer has some assurances to offer: The world won't be ending in a few days, despite predictions to the contrary. The Rev. Jose Funes, director of the Vatican Observatory, wrote in Wednesday's Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore

Romano that “it's not even worth discussing” doomsday scenarios based on the Mayan calendar that are flooding the Internet ahead of the purported Dec. 21 apocalypse. Yes, Funes wrote, the universe is expanding and if some models are correct, will at one point “break away” — but not

for billions of years. But he said Christians profoundly believe that “death can never have the last word.” The Mayan Long Count calendar begins in 3,114 B.C., marking time in roughly 394-year periods known as Baktuns. The Mayans wrote that the significant 13th Baktun ends Dec. 21.

GOP decries looming ‘regulatory cliff’ WASHINGTON — While the “fiscal cliff” of looming tax increases and spending cuts dominates political conversation in Washington, some Republicans and business groups see signs of a “regulatory cliff” that they say could be just as damaging to the economy. For months, federal agencies and the White House have sidetracked dozens of major regulations that cover everything from power plant pollution to workplace safety to a crackdown on Wall Street. The rules had been largely put on hold during the presidential campaign as the White House sought to quiet Republican charges that President Barack Obama was an overzealous regulator who is killing U.S. jobs. But since the election, the Obama administration has quietly reopened the regulations pipeline. In recent weeks, the Environmental Protection Agency has proposed rules to update water quality guidelines for beaches and deal with runoff from logging roads. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, meanwhile, has proposed long-delayed regulations requiring auto makers to include event data recorders — better known as “black boxes” — in all new cars and light trucks beginning in 2014. The administration also has initiated several rules to implement its health care overhaul, including a new fee to cushion the cost of covering people with pre-existing conditions. Some GOP lawmakers fear the worst.

Obama has spent the past year “punting” on a slew of job-killing regulations that will be unleashed in a second term, said Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla. With the election over, it’s now “full speed ahead” for federal rules limiting greenhouse gas emissions, requiring cleaner gasoline and putting controls on drilling for oil and natural gas, said Inhofe, the senior Republican on the Senate Environment Committee.

Wall Street Journal. The officials said that Thursday’s hearing was intended to re-focus lawmakers’ discussions on the status of the investigation into finding those who carried out the attack and holding them accountable. Until now, discussions had largely focused on how the White House described the attack in its aftermath and whether U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice played down al-Qaida’s possible role by blaming it on an angry mob.

Libyan government U.S. hesitant begins slowing search in condemning launch WASHINGTON — U.S. counterterrorism officials told lawmakers this week that uncooperative or less-than-capable local law enforcement in Libya, Egypt and Tunisia is slowing the search for suspects in the death of the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans in Libya on Sept. 11. Authorities in the region have not yet arrested many of the suspects the U.S. wants to question about the violent attack on the American compound in Benghazi on Sept. 11, according to two U.S. officials briefed on a private House Intelligence Committee hearing Thursday, where counterterrorism, intelligence and law enforcement chiefs disclosed the information to lawmakers. The U.S. officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly disclose the information, said Egypt has arrested Egyptian Islamic Jihad member Muhammad Jamal Abu Ahmad for possible links to the attack, but key al-Qaida sympathizers remain free. They added that U.S. requests to go after the suspects unilaterally have also been rebuffed. The arrest was initially reported by The

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is drawing no “red line” for North Korea after a successful long-range rocket test, tempering the public condemnation to avoid raising tensions or possibly rewarding the reclusive communist nation with too much time in the global spotlight. The U.S. has told the world that it won’t tolerate Iran’s acquisition of nuclear weapons or Syria’s use of chemical stockpiles on rebels. North Korea, in some ways, is a trickier case. The U.S. wants to forcefully condemn what it believes is a “highly provocative act,” and that was the first public reaction from the White House. But it also is mindful of the turmoil on the Korean peninsula and treading carefully, offering no threat of military action or unspecified “consequences” associated with other hot spots. Just two years ago, the North allegedly torpedoed a South Korean warship and shelled a South Korean island. Some 50 South Koreans died in the attacks that brought the peninsula to the brink of war.

Hamilton, Angels agree to 5-year deal The Associated Press

Associated Press

HATTIESBURG — Quarterback Anthony Alford has left Southern Mississippi after one season. Southern Miss athletic director Jeff Hammond announced Thursday in a statement that Alford had requested a release from his scholarship and the school has complied. Alford played in nine games for the winless Golden Eagles this season, starting five. He led the team with 664 passing yards and also rushed for 329 yards and six touchdowns. But his future was uncertain after he was arrested and charged with aggravated assault by university police following a fight on campus earlier this month. The Petal, Miss., native is also a promising baseball prospect. He was signed by the Toronto Blue Jays after being drafted in the third round last June, but the organization allowed him to also play college football.

MSU’s Griffin tears ACL Mississippi State running back Nick Griffin will miss the Gator Bowl after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The 6-foot, 225-pound sophomore rushed for 223 yards and a touchdown this season while averaging seven yards per carry. He had emerged as the primary backup for starter LaDarius Perkins. It’s the second serious knee injury for Griffin, who tore the ACL in his left knee less than two years ago. Mississippi State says Griffin suffered the injury during a practice on Saturday and tests revealed the damage. He had surgery on Thursday. Mississippi State (8-4) faces Northwestern (9-3) in the Gator Bowl on Jan. 1.

LOS ANGELES — Josh Hamilton is heading to the Los Angeles Angels, lured with a $125 million, five-year contract that steps up the migration of high-profile stars to Southern California. The Angels persuaded the free-agent outfielder to leave the Texas Rangers with their third big-money offseason signing in as many years.

Hamilton heads to Anaheim after first baseman Albert Pujols came West for $240 million last December along with pitcher C.J. Wilson — Hamilton’s Texas teammate — for $77.5 million. Still, the Angels failed to make the playoffs for the third straight year. They had bulked up their pitching staff earlier in the offseason with the additions

of pitchers Joe Blanton and Tommy Hanson, along with relievers Sean Burnett and Ryan Madson. General manager Jerry Dipoto had said Wednesday that he didn’t think a major move was “imminent or required.” But owner Arte Moreno pulled off another coup by getting Hamilton. The 2010 AL MVP, Pujols and AL Rookie of the Year Mike Trout

combined for 103 home runs and 316 RBIs last season. “It’s a great day to be an Angel/Angel fan!” Wilson said on his Twitter account. Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said Hamilton had reached a deal with the AL West rival Angels. Two people familiar with the talks disclosed the amount and Please see ANGELS | 9A

Basketball schools to depart from Big East Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Big East is headed for another break up. This time, the seven prominent basketball schools that don’t play FBS football are planning to break away from the ever-changing conference. The divorce is expected to be complicated, maybe even contentious, with millions of

dollars and possibly the future of the league at stake. The Big East’s non-football members decided Thursday to separate from the conference, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because officials from those schools are still sorting through details

and trying to figure how best to split from the conference. No official announcement is imminent. The seven schools that don’t play FBS-level football are St. John’s, Georgetown, Marquette, DePaul, Seton Hall, Providence and Villanova. Officials at those schools have concerns about the direction of the conference and feel as if

they have little power to influence it. Commissioner Mike Aresco conferred by phone with the leaders of those seven schools earlier in the day, according to another person familiar with the situation, also speaking on condition of anonymity. The current Big East footPlease see EAST | 9A

Shocker: Golden, Vols beat No. 23 Wichita State Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Trae Golden scored 25 points and Tennessee beat No. 23 Wichita State 69-60 on Thursday night to snap a two-game losing streak and hand the Shockers their first loss of the season. Tennessee shot 47.5 percent to end a brutal offensive

slump. In its two games leading up to this one, Tennessee had lost 37-36 to Georgetown in the SEC/Big East Challenge on Nov. 30 and 46-38 at Virginia on Dec. 5. The only other time Tennessee failed to score 40 points since the shot clock was introduced in 198687 was a 43-35 loss to Auburn on Jan. 15, 1997.

The Volunteers (5-3) are shooting 50.8 percent in their wins and 29.1 percent in their losses this season. Jordan McRae added 17 points for Tennessee. Carl Hall matched a career high with 21 points and had nine rebounds — seven offensive — for Wichita State (9-1), which was seeking the first

10-0 start in school history. The Shockers started 9-0 in 2004-05 and 2006-07. Tennessee won despite playing most of the second half without Jarnell Stokes, the Vols’ leading scorer and rebounder. Stokes had six points and seven rebounds Please see VOLS | 9A

the Clarion-Ledger. Junior John Wiley Works leads a balanced scoring attack. Jonathan Lancaster and Preston have recorded two double-doubles each in nine games, while senior Jay Moore and sophomore Ben McIntyre lead a threepoint barrage. Marshall is paced by Peyton Lewis (15.2) and Brad Bennett (15.2) -- a pair of seniors -- in the scoring department. The girls contests feature Biggersville (3-7) and Marshall Academy (11-4) in the opener. The Lady Lions rely on the onetwo scoring punch of Tyler Shelley (18) and Jada Tubbs (14), a sophomore and freshman, respectively. Unbeaten East Webster will battle Booneville (4-4) in the other girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; contest. Jasmine Allen leads the Lady Devils with 26.4 points, 5 rebounds and 2.6 points per game.

EAST CONTINUED FROM 8A

ball membership includes only four schools â&#x20AC;&#x201D; South Florida, Connecticut and Cincinnati, Temple â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that are committed to the league beyond 2013. But there are 11 schools with plans to join the Big East in the next three years, including Boise State and San Diego State for football only in 2013. Because those schools wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be members until next summer, the majority of the voting members of the Big East are basketball schools right now. Still, those schools arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in position to dissolve the conference. That would take the votes of at least two football members, according to the Big East bylaws. The Catholic schools can leave without financial penalty. The Big East has provisions in its bylaws that allow a group of schools to leave without exit fees. But what they would do remains unclear, as are the legal ramifications of their actions. There has been speculation those seven basketball schools could merge with the Atlantic 10 or possibly create a basketball-only conference.

length of the contract, speaking on condition of anonymity because the agreement was not yet final. Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $25 million average salary matches Philadelphia first baseman Ryan Howard for the second-highest in baseball, trailing only Alex Rodriguezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $27.5 million average with the New York Yankees. Since the contract wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t final, the Angels didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comment publicly. The team said in a statement, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We continue to look for ways to improve our team. As soon as we have something formal to announce, we will do so.â&#x20AC;? Moreno and manager Mike Scioscia didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t immediately respond to phone messages. The Angels allowed free agent outfielder Torii Hunter to sign with Detroit, and he reacted to his former teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest move on his Twitter account. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was told money was tight but I guess the Arte had money hidden under a Mattress.

VOLS CONTINUED FROM 8A

while playing just 18 minutes due to foul trouble. Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-point play gave Wichita State a 59-58 lead and was the play Stokes fouled out on with 3:55 remaining. But the Vols outscored the Shockers 11-2 the rest of the way. Golden went 6 of 8 from the free throw line during that game-ending run. He made

one of two free throws to tie the game with 3:29 left, then Kenny Hall put Tennessee ahead for good by making two free throws with 3:10 remaining. Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return to Thompson-Boling Arena revived the Volsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dormant offense. The Volsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 69 points matched the highest total Wichita State had allowed all season. The Shockers beat Air Force 72-69 on Dec. 2.

The rejuvenation didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen immediately. Tennessee committed five turnovers and scored just two points in the first 4 1/2 minutes of the game. But the Vols eventually settled down and started making the shots they had missed all too often against Georgetown and Virginia. Tennessee led 30-28 at halftime before Wichita State pulled back ahead as Carl Hall

scored eight points in the first 5 minutes of the second half. Tennessee honored the memory of former coach Ray Mears, who went 278-112 from 1962-77 and remains the winningest coach in the history of the program. Mearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; surviving relatives were given a painting of him at a halftime ceremony that featured about a dozen of his former players.

draft. The deal cost the Angels a first-round selection in the draft. Speaking Thursday after a Rangersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; holiday luncheon, Daniels said he had just been informed of the decision by Hamiltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agent, Michael Moye. Daniels said he was disappointed â&#x20AC;&#x153;to some degree,â&#x20AC;? especially since the Rangers never got a chance to match any offer during the process, as they had expected. Or at least get contacted before Hamilton agreed with another team. The agreement came days after the Los Angeles Dodgers added pitchers Zack Greinke and Ryu Hyun-jin, boosting their payroll over $200 million. Scioscia will have an interesting decision to make on where in the batting order to slot in Pujols, Trout and Hamilton, a five-time All-Star.

Wife alarmed husband planned his funeral DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married for seven years. Since our wedding, he has had increasing health problems. He recently told me that he planned his funeral three months ago, without saying Abigail a word to I am Van Buren me. very concerned Dear Abby that he s e e m s more focused on death than on life. Am I wrong to be upset? He says I am. — WIFE IN BURLINGTON, N.J. DEAR WIFE: I don’t blame you for being concerned because husbands

and wives should be able to discuss important topics with each other, and this is one of them. When your husband has his next medical appointment, go with him so you can speak with his physician. It’s possible that because of his “increasing health problems” he has become depressed, and if that’s the case, his doctor should be told. It is always helpful for spouses to accompany each other to their medical appointments in case the patient forgets to ask a question or tell the doctor something he or she needs to know.

It’s possible that because of his “increasing health problems” he has become depressed, and if that’s the case, his doctor should be told. room because he says he doesn’t have room for them in his apartment. I’d like to clear out his closet and dresser and use the space for things I want to store. I need more space for me. Dustin is calling me selfish because I want to change “his” room and move my stuff in there. I say I need the space, and if he wants to keep all

his stuff, he should rent a storage locker. By the way, he sleeps here maybe five nights a year at most. How long are parents obligated to keep their grown children’s keepsakes? — WANTS MY SPACE DEAR WANTS YOUR SPACE: You are asking an emotionally loaded question. While, rationally, five years should be long enough, clearing “his” room instead of main-

taining it as a shrine may feel like abandonment to your adult child. Give Dustin a little more time to adjust — like six months — and then insist that he find a place for his things. That way it will be a little less traumatic. DEAR ABBY: During these hard times, may I tell you about my daughter? Every year at Christmas, I let our children pick one present for around $30 for themselves. They know that we don’t have a lot of money and that “Santa” brings only a few presents. My daughter chose to give her “Christmas money” to a charity so that another family can be blessed. She’s only 9, and she understands there are families who are in more need than us. She truly is an angel for reminding me of that.

I went to our local food pantry and told them what my daughter wanted to do for Christmas. The director wrote her a letter of thanks and explained how many families her $30 would be helping. I’m so proud of my girl. Sometimes it takes a child to remind us how all of us should act. — BLESSED IN ILLINOIS DEAR BLESSED: Yes, it’s true. But invariably it takes good parents to instill a spirit of empathy and generosity in their children. So some of the credit belongs to you.

Good times at the Grand Ole Opry Every now and then a couple is fortunate enough to run upon some good times, and last weekend was one of those for my husband and me. For the past three years, we have been uninterested in being away from home for very long — all as a result of a trip to an emergency room one night in Nashville, Tenn. After that experience, we have hesitated to plan trips and spend the night away from home. However, a few months ago my husband expressed an interest in going to the Grand Ole Opry — but only when it’s at the Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville. I knew the Opry is at the Ryman in the winter months so I started checking. We soon had

tickets — and Mississippi’s o w n Charley Pride was in the Lora Ann l i n e u p . Huff We just had to Back Porch wait a couple months for the date. Finally, last Friday was the day to travel, and we were ready to get away from all our chores and responsibilities. We arrived safely at our hotel near the Opryland Hotel so without any trouble we were able to enjoy the Christmas decorations on Friday night — along with thousands of other folks. Then while enjoying a visit with Hansford’s cousin on Saturday, we felt we must go to the American Pickers’

new store, which has been highly advertised. After researching the exact location, our cousin Joe chauffeured us around Nashville to the old Marathon factory building. We were so excited and the parking area was almost full — this was going to be fun for us since we enjoy looking at old things. Soon we were entering the door marked “Antique Archeology” — into a small room filled with less-than-colorful stuff. The items were definitely old and weathered and interesting, but a loud band was playing in one corner, and with all the people and noise, there was little comfort in the room. The 3,000 squarefoot building they advertise describes the warehouse building indeed, but the pickers’ store is

only a very small portion of that. We carefully made a circle in the room and exited. I walked into an art shop across the street and asked the young clerk, “Is that all there is to the Pickers’ store?” “Yes ma’am,” she said. “That’s it. I get asked that question all the time. You should have complained to them.” I assured her we would have if the music hadn’t been so loud we couldn’t talk or hear! The excursion was fun even if a disappointment. We were happy because we knew we would soon be on a bus headed for the Ryman. We’ve toured the auditorium several times and love it, always believing it would be wonderful to sing on the Please see OPRY | 4B

Christmastime marks season of giving Christmas: the season of giving! I have received many emails speaking of great gifts given to others whether the giver realized it or not. These are called miracle gifts and most of these contained no more than people giving of themselves. My wife and I have watched many Christmas specials and have reached the conclusion that the greatest gift you give while inhabiting this earth is the gift of hope. One email I received was about a 4-year old boy who visited Santa Clause in a department store, and all he asked for was that Santa would come to the hospital and visit his

younger sister who was dying of leukemia. Her greatest wish was Gary that she Andrews could talk to Santa. Devotionals After work that evening the Santa and the manager of the store made their way to the hospital to visit this young lady. Upon their arrival and at first sight the young lady jumped with joy and almost pulled all of her medicine tubes from her body. Santa embraced her with a big hug and sat on the bed beside her. They talked for a few

moments and Santa told her to get well and he would see her next Christmas. Santa left the room with tears in his eyes not knowing how long this young child had to live. With great anticipation he prayed with her and for her and instilled into her the gift of hope and future expectations. This particular Santa worked for this department store every year and the next year was no different. One of his first visitors was a young girl who ran and jumped into his lap and asked, “Do you remember me?” Santa said, “Of course I remember you.” This was the same an-

swer he gave to every child that asked him this question. Then the young girl said, “I am the one you came to visit last year in the hospital.” With tears in his eyes Santa hugged this young girl and said a prayer of thanksgiving for her life had been spared. Through his unselfish giving of his time and through his inspirational gift of hope the Santa helped this young girl to overcome this dreaded disease and become cancer free. The gift of giving in its purest form expects nothing in return. Giving is its own reward. Look what Jesus did for all of us. He gave Himself to be crucified on a cross so that you

Gospel singer Chuck Clark receives music associations’ top awards.

Local gospel singer receives top awards Local Southern Gospel singer Chuck Clark of Iuka was awarded the Male Vocalist of the year and also CD of the year from the Georgia and Tennessee Country Gospel Music Associations at their awards show Sept. 2 in Nashville, Tenn. “It is an honor to get these awards but more of an honor to get to serve the Lord the way He allows me too,” said Clark when accepting these awards. “I just want to make sure He gets all the honor and glory for it because without Him I couldn’t do any of this. The CD of the year award is the one that really thrilled me because that was an effort by some great friends and songwriters, Dale White and Mack Wadkins, both from right here in Iuka and Michael Combs, a legend in Southern Gospel.” Chuck has been singing solo now for over a year and a half. Chuck Clark Music Ministries has been honored to sing in a lot of places and the blessings are too numerous to mention. “I just want to make sure when I sing, people know two things. One, I love to share the Lord through the songs I sing, and two, I want to see the lost come to know the

Lord. That’s what it’s all about.” Sharing God’s word through song is what Chuck feels passionate about. He remarked, “Some are called to preach and some to teach. He wanted me to sing and so that’s what I do and that’s what I love. The awards are nice to receive and I appreciate them but the one thing that matters most to me is when we have an invitation toward the end of the services and seeing people fill the altars. Seeing a young man like I had the privilege of watching a few weeks ago when he accepted the Lord at that altar was amazing. That’s what it’s all about and what matters to me most.” Chuck is a deacon at Asphalt Rock Baptist Church in Margerum, Ala. He has been married for the past 29 years to Marlene and they have three daughters, Lacy, Emma and Morgan and four grandchildren. “These are the greatest blessings of all,” said Chuck when talking about his family. “They stand by me and are so encouraging. Don’t know what I’d do without them all. And to all my friends, for all the prayers that have gone up, I thank you and say God bless you all.”

stage. In fact, Sherry Suggs and I came close to doing that last year. The large number of tourists was all that kept us from testing our voices with the acoustics in the old building. I was so glad to see Hansford find his seat and get ready for the show. His dream has been to attend a concert in the historic auditorium, so I knew his face would light up when the curtains opened and the show began. The first half sported entertainers I grew up listening to on the Friday and Saturday night radio shows live from the Ryman â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jim Ed Brown, Jimmy Dickens, Jeannie Seeley, Connie Smith â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but the second half was the real treat. Ahead of Charley Pride was Marty Stuart, who was celebrating his 20th year as an Opry member. The little Philadelphia, Miss, native was feeling his oats â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he was ready to put on a show and that he did! In addition to Martyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance, he intro-

duced a couple of new groups he is helping promote. After they performed, Choctaw Indian friends from Philadelphia showed up, one being the first female tribal chief. After the Choctaws did a dance, Charley Pride added his rendition of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kaw-Liga,â&#x20AC;? and he brought the house down, so to speak. With the foot-stomping Native American music and all the bluegrass numbers, we would have been willing to stay for the second show if not for the hard â&#x20AC;&#x153;church pewsâ&#x20AC;? we were sitting on. Two hours is long enough to sit without cushions! Memories of the weekend will be treasured the rest of our lives. We may be getting older, but we were blessed to have a safe and joyful weekend away from home with no stress and work. It was good! (Daily Corinthian columnist Lora Ann Huff is a Wenasoga resident.

Horoscopes BY HOLIDAY MATHIS ARIES (March 21-April 19). It will be challenging to strike the right balance between your personal and professional life unless you pick up the pace at work. Getting everything done in time to leave work at a decent time will make for a happy personal life. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). In the morning, it will be difficult to recognize the excellent circumstances youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in. But once you see where the real opportunities lie, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll feel spoiled for choice. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a difference between being very direct and being tactless. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll deliver a sharp message with a kind touch -- a skill youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be admired and possibly

employed for. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be successful as you execute a negative imitation -- in other words, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do the exact opposite from what someone else does to terrific effect. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Scientists widely accept the theory that the universe happened, though few have a theory as to why. If you can supply a â&#x20AC;&#x153;whyâ&#x20AC;? for the things you cause in your part of the universe, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be ahead of the game. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re generally even tempered, so when you do speak passionately, as you will today in an impressive outburst, people listen and give your sentiments great importance. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you

could take another personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pain and feel it instead, you would. But even the greatest love doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow for this. However, you will be a help. Life is easier for someone because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Choose your sacrifices carefully. Being at your healthy best is also whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for your people. Caring for yourself is an expression of gratitude to everyone around you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a generous mood, as usual. As your sign mate Sir Winston Churchill suggested, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.â&#x20AC;? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have gumption. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ap-

plied it, you know what it is and what it feels like to possess. Many do not know and havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t experienced such a quality yet and cannot be blamed for the lack. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The same thin line thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s between love and hate runs between romance and annoyance. Give others the benefit of the doubt as you interpret gestures. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your loyalties are many, but hopefully not so many that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have time left for yourself. Right now, it is crucial to spend a few hours alone, doing only what pleases you. PISCES: How you express your desire will make a huge difference. A rose, by any other name, is a totally different flower.
