Basket Law enforcement boosts holiday patrols fund tops $16,000 Drivers should also expect heavy traffic and allow a little extra time to reach their destination. “We want everybody to have a good holiday season and be safe without endangering the lives of others,” said the police chief. The New Year’s holiday period is from Friday, Dec. 28 through midnight on Jan. 1. MHP has participated in “Drive Sober” for the past 10 years. This year the agency received $105,000 to step up enforcement.

“This is not about writing tickets. It is about saving lives,” said MHP Director Colonel Donnell Berry. “We want everyone to have a safe and enjoyable Christmas.” A first DUI offense carries a penalty of a fine of up to $1,000, up to 48 hours in jail and driver’s license suspension of up to 90 days. On a second offense, the fine increases to $600 to $1,500, up to one year in jail, two-year driver’s license suspension and 10 hours of community service. It becomes a felony on the third offense.

Law enforcement agencies are planning to step up patrols for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. The Mississippi Highway Patrol is putting 117 extra troopers on patrol during the Christmas holiday period, which begins at 6 p.m. Friday and runs through midnight Christmas night. MHP will use check points and rolling patrols as part of its enforcement. For Christmas and New Year’s combined, the feder-

ally funded “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign is putting an extra 285 troopers on the highways. The Corinth Police Department will also beef up manpower during the holidays. “As always, we will be looking for intoxicated drivers,” said Police Chief David Lancaster. “We urge people if they are going to drink, let somebody else drive or stay off the roads.” And it’s important to choose the designated driver and decide where to stay before the drinking starts, he said.

The room was filled with energetic children running to and fro. There were also sweet treats and gifts to be passed out by Santa Claus himself. The afternoon was all part of the Knights of Columbus and Region IV Mental Health Services Christmas for Needy Children at the Region IV building on Franklin Street. “No words can explain what this means to us,” said Ray Ball, former Grand Knight of Council 8912. “This makes you wish you could do more.” Over 60 children -- ages K4th Grade -- took part in the party Tuesday after school. Each one was presented a gift by Santa Claus. “It's the most touching thing I see all year,” said Region IV Executive Director Charlie Spearman. “I truly look forward to this event every year.” The Knights of Columbus are able to fund the project through the selling of Belk Charity Day tickets twice a year. A party for needy children in Alcorn County has been held since 2005. “The Knights of Columbus have been involved in supplying the needs of children for years,” said Dr. Jack Hora, who started Council 8912 in 1985. “Today is part of the original goal of helping where there is a need.” Children for the event are selected by their school teachers.

The Corinth Board of Aldermen pressed for improvements at a rental property as seven addresses came before the board for public hearings this week. The board gave a two-week continuance for an apartment building on North Polk Street near Little Zion Road which has been generating complaints. Adjudication is looming if the owner does not finalize a plan to improve the property. Ward 2 Alderman Ben Albarracin said neighbors are unhappy with the situation. “You don’t live there. You’re not having to see it on a daily basis,” he told owner Ricky Burns. “They are. They’re asking for it to be cleaned up.” Burns, who has owned the property for about a year and told the board he will fix up three of the units, was instructed to meet with the building inspector to set up a timetable and plans. The owner said the property

Church bells will honor shooting victims Shiloh battlefield to host upcoming Christmas events

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

KOSSUTH — A small community is showing its big heart to help a hurting nation. With America continuing to wonder why in the wake of a school shooting that left 26 dead in Newtown, Conn., community churches are coming together and honoring victims Friday at Kossuth United Methodist Church. The church is inviting area communities to join them Friday morning at 9:15 a.m. to honor the innocent victims of the shooting. Communities have been asked by Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy to observe a moment of silence at 9:30 a.m. on Friday. Malloy is also asking churches to ring their bells 26 times — once for each

Upcoming events at Shiloh National Military Park include a Christmas program on Friday and an event to mark the anniversary of the park’s founding next week. On Thursday children are invited to Shiloh’s Civil War Christmas program beginning at 2 p.m. “We are excited to present this fun filled, yet educational, opportunity to area children,” said Superintendent John Bundy. “This unique hour-long program will introduce young people to how Christmas was celebrated 150 years ago in our nation.” The Christmas program will give children an insight into the different ways sol-

diers and their families celebrated the holiday in camp and on the home front. For example, Christmas trees were small during the Civil War era and were placed on top of tables. They were decorated with homemade paper ornaments, edible treats — like popcorn and peanuts wrapped in paper — and items found in nature, such as pinecones. Each child will construct a Victorian Christmas ornament to take home and decorate their Christmas tree. Kids will also have an opportunity to participate in Operation Christmas Cards. In this program kids decorate a Christmas card to spread Please see SHILOH | 2

The event was a huge success this year with plenty of need. The total now stands at $16,290, meaning just $3,710 needs to be raised from the community as there will be no corporate match this year. Food was distributed on faith the goal will be reached by Christmas Day.

Shiloh National Military Park will host a commemorative event to observe the 118th anniversary of its establishment on Thursday, Dec. 27. The event will begin with a 30 minute interpretive program about the establishment of the park and how the park has changed since its creation up to the present day. “Shiloh battlefield has seen notable changes in the past decade, such as the addition of the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center, new monuments on the battlefield and hundreds of acres added to the park,

just to name a few,” said Park Ranger Heather Smedley. “In the Powerpoint presentation, I will discuss the creation of the park and some of the changes it has seen over the years.” Shiloh was established on Dec. 27, 1894, during a wave of nationalism and preservation in the United States. By that time many Americans were tired of the sectionalism which split the nation in the decades leading to the Civil War and the period of Reconstruction that followed. Also, many citizens and veterans wanted to pay tribute to the bravery of Civil War soldiers — North and South alike. Shiloh was one of the first five military parks created, along with

Chickamauga, Vicksburg, Antietam and Gettysburg. “Since its founding, not only has Shiloh battlefield preserved the ground of the first major fight of the Civil War, it has also had far reaching effects on the local economy, providing numerous jobs, and as a mainstay of Hardin County tourism,” said the park superintendent. Shiloh’s birthday event will begin with the Powerpoint presentation at 1:30 p.m. in the Shiloh Visitor Center auditorium. After the program, the Hardin County Visitor & Convention Bureau will present a birthday cake to the park for visitors to enjoy. The event is free and open to the public.

the decision not to purchase something.” The board also acted on the following properties: ■ 1411 Foote Street (Van property) — Adjudicated for cleanup. The building inspector will examine a structure on this property to determine if it will be demolished. ■ 1415 Foote Street (Crider) — An empty lot adjudicated for cleanup. ■ 1115 Douglas Street

(Rhoades) — Continued to Jan. 15. The owners have agreed to demolish the burned-out house, Code Enforcement Officer Kim Ratliff reported. ■ 408 Violet Street (Harris) — Continued to Jan. 15. ■ 514 Lilly Street (Dean) — Dismissed. ■ Corner of Mississippi and Violet in block 6 of Speedway Addition (Potts) — Dismissed.

to this mournful situation, but I do know we need to turn to Him.” Friday will be a time of prayer along with singing before Kossuth Middle School eighth grader Taylor Jenkins rings the church bell 26 times. Kossuth schools are also excepted to take part in

the ceremony. Last Friday, 20-yearold Adam Lanza entered Sandy Hook Elementary School and fatally shot 20 children and six adult staff members. The massacre was the second-deadliest school shooting in United States history.

“At first it was disbelief … I felt saddened and humbled at the same time,” said Follin-King, a teacher for 45 years. “I am humbled to have taught over 40 years and not had to face that type of tragedy … school should be the safest place for a child.”

Studies show more positive result from Medicaid expansion In the debate over whether Mississippi can afford to expand Medicaid, one problem is deciding whose numbers to believe. Opponents of the expansion are relying on figures produced by Milliman Inc., a consulting firm that does work for the Division of Medicaid. Milliman leans toward worst-case figures. It estimates high participation rates and ignores the economic impact from the huge increase in federal matching funds. Milliman puts the price tag to the state over seven years at $600 million to $1 billion, although it acknowledges that one-third to one-half of this increase will occur no matter what the state does. Other studies are much more positive. The non-partisan Kaiser Family Foundation estimates the cost to the state over six years at $429 million. The University Research Center, part of the state Institutions of Higher Learning, says it’s not even that bad once the ancillary tax revenue from the health care jobs created by the Medicaid expansion is taken into account. It projects a net cost to the state of about $100 million over seven years. None of these studies account for another major financial part of the equation: the estimated $262 million that the state’s hospitals stand to lose in federal subsidies from 2014 to 2020 once Obamacare kicks in and shifts that money to the Medicaid expansion. If Mississippi opts out of the expansion, a number of hospitals could be pushed to the brink of closure. They will have a higher proportion of uncompensated care than they can swallow. For the sake of argument, let’s accept Milliman’s projection of the expansion’s cost. Even these numbers show a match of roughly $15 in federal funds for every $1 the state puts up. How can Mississippi pass on that? — Enterprise-Journal, McComb

Party-switcher goes with the numbers Mississippi’s speaker of the House, Philip Gunn, called the latest legislative defection to his political party a “godly man, a Christian man.” That may be so, but state Rep. Jason White’s decision to become a Republican has little or nothing to do with religion. It has everything to do with legislative redistricting and political opportunism. A year ago, White ran as a Democrat for the open seat in House District 48, which includes parts of Holmes and Carroll counties. At the time of that election, the district had a majority-black voting-age population of roughly 44 percent. That demographic, given the historical propensity of blacks to vote for Democrats, generally assured that the only way White, an attorney from West, could win was by putting a “D’’ next to his name. Earlier this year, though, the Legislature redrew its district lines to account for population shifts as reflected in the 2010 census. Now White is in a district that is about 28 percent black — much more friendly confines for the Republican Party. White said he never felt comfortable with the Democratic Party after arriving in Jackson. But what he obviously wasn’t comfortable with is the new shape of his district. Not only is it less Democratic, but also it will pit White in 2015 against veteran Democratic lawmaker Bennett Malone of Carthage, assuming they both decide to run for re-election. ... White’s odds of pulling the upset are better in a general election than a Democratic primary. He’s expecting that, by adding to the Republicans’ majority in the House, they will return the favor by helping to beef up his legislative resume and his campaign treasury over the next few years. The payoff started this week with the welcoming party the GOP put on for White and Gunn’s gushing compliments. The speaker was absolutely correct when he said White “has convictions.” One of those is the conviction to do whatever it takes to get elected. — The Greenwood Commonwealth

Prayer for today May the Lord bless us and keep us from all harm; and may God lead us to eternal life. Amen.

Tragedy rejuvenates gun rights debate STARKVILLE — The Connecticut school shooting tragedy will have a long and profound impact on the debate on Second Amendment rights in this nation. Certainly, with the killing of 26 innocent people, including 20 small children, such a debate is appropriate. Unfortunately, the depth of grief and pain that the senseless slaughter of children engenders raises the gun rights debate to a level so shrill and polarized that real progress is difficult if not impossible. Any parents or grandparents who have confronted thoughts of “what had this been my children or grandchildren?” will be hard pressed to discuss a reasonable balance of important Second Amendment rights with the perceived need for increased school safety in the wake of such a stunning loss of life. But the aching grief for these children – whose lives were stolen at Christmas, no less – makes the facts of such tragedies hard to bear. The facts are that most schools – from pre-K to universities – are safe. The Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice found that 83 percent of all public

educational institutions report “no serious violent crime.” The fact is that since Sid Salter 1997, NationWeather Columnist al Service statistics document that on average 54 people per year are killed by random lightning strikes. That’s a total of 918 victims between 1997 and 2012. Over the same period, press and law enforcement reports document that random school and university shootings have claimed a total of 172 victims between 1997 and 2012, including the Connecticut victims. Not only are your children far more likely to be struck by lightning than to be injured or killed in school violence, but school violence resulting in homicides has declined rather steadily between 1993 and 2010, according to a study by the National Center for Education Statistics. The report found that school violence in the U.S. peaked in 1993, when there were 42 homicides by students in total and 13 “serious vio-

lent crimes” — rape, sexual assault, robbery and aggravated assault — per 1,000 students at primary and secondary schools. By 2010, the latest figures available, those numbers had decreased to two homicides and four violent crimes per 1,000 students. It was back in 1997 when Pearl, Mississippi was the scene of a school shooting tragedy that began very much like the Connecticut event. Luke Woodham, then 16, shot and killed two students and wounded seven other after stabbing his mother to death in their home. Newtown, Conn., shooter Adam Lanza followed the same pattern Friday, but was armed with more sophisticated automatic weapons. Gun rights advocates will point out that unlike Lanza in Connecticut, Woodham’s rampage was halted in Pearl when the shooter was confronted by a Pearl High vice principal, who had retrieved a Colt .45 pistol from his truck. The armed school official subdued Woodham until law enforcement arrived. Gun control proponents

have seized on the Connecticut tragedy as they seize on all mass shootings as political and moral justification for their beliefs. The proliferation of assault weapons remains a growing part of the gun rights debate about which public opinion is in a significant state of evolution. But the notion that more gun restrictions would have protected the students in Newtown, Connecticut from a young deranged gunman seems ludicrous on its face. Most school shooters share the traits of mental health problems, are or believe themselves to be the victims of bullying, have histories of psychotropic drug use, have anger issues, have been rejected or ignored by peers, and the list of grievances real or perceived goes on. The ease with which those individuals have access to guns is but one of several contributing factors to these senseless tragedies. Calls for gun restrictions are a knee-jerk reaction to a far more complex problem. (Daily Corinthian and syndicated columnist Sid Salter can be contacted at 601-507-8004 or sidsalter@sidsalter.com.)

Proposal needed to phase in debt limit BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Everyone in Washington, D.C. knows two things: 1. President Obama will try to wriggle out of any spending cuts enumerated in the fiscal cliff deal. We all know from experience that whenever there is a one-toone ratio between spending cuts and revenue increases the ratio falls apart in reality. The tax increases slow the economy, curtailing growth and increasing entitlement spending. Unless there is an enforcement mechanism, spending goes up, not down. 2. The Republicans will not refuse to raise the debt limit and thus cause the nation to default. If House Speaker John Boehner did not let the government shut down over the 2011 continuing resolution battle or the subsequent debt limit fight, he won’t let it close down now. So, as things now stand, any leverage the Republicans get from the debt limit fight is purely theoretical

and not real. Here’s how to make it real: The Republicans should offer to pass a bill setting a debt limit that rises each quarter pegged to one-third of the revenue growth of the preceding quarter. Thus, two-thirds of all revenue growth -- natural or due to tax hikes -- would go to deficit reduction. Republicans are unwilling to pull the trigger on default by refusing to raise the debt limit. But a bill to allow gradual increases in the debt limit, at a pace slower than revenue growth, need not trigger default. Instead, the president would be forced to prioritize his spending and borrowing so as to avoid default, pay the military and send out Social Security checks. All the rhetorical handles he has to battle an effort to kill the debt limit increase will be gone in the face of a phased in debt limit hike. A spending deal with deficit reduction targets really cannot be enforced. But

if those goals are linked to the debt limit, they are selfenforcing. Obama wants to not only raise the debt limit but to eliminate it. Without a debt limit, there is no way to stop or even to slow government borrowing. The two normal constraints on public debt growth are not applicable. For other borrowers, lenders can refuse to lend. But the federal government is not planning to borrow from lenders. It will borrow the money it prints and gives to banks in return for worthless mortgage backed securities. And, in usual circumstances, the interest rate rises as the debt becomes larger and less sustainable. But with the fund for debt service coming from the federal printing press, the Treasury can hold the interest rates to an artificial level of 3.5 percent as at present. It is only through debt limits that there is any check on federal borrowing or, even on federal spending. We need to cut off the

credit card Washington uses to pay its bills. But the all-or-nothing approach of current debt limit brinksmanship leaves false draconian choices for both the president and the Congress and, of course, rattles the markets. But if the debt limit is slated to go up enough to meet debt service and other vital needs, but not enough to give the president all the money he wants, it can be a real check on executive profligacy. The Republicans need a financial equivalent of the flexible response doctrine Kennedy brought to U.S. defense, rejecting the massive retaliation doctrine of Eisenhower as too drastic ever to really be used. If the only option is the nuclear, then there is no option. (Daily Corinthian columnist Dick Morris, former advisor to the Clinton administration, is a commentator and writer.

Ashland voters reject liquor sales ASHLAND — Ashland voters have rejected a proposal to legalize the sale of liquor inside the city limits. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports 120 voters cast ballots against the proposal Tuesday, while 109 voted in favor. The vote came following the presentation of a petition to the mayor and board of aldermen bearing approximately 130 signatures. WTVA TV reports beer sales are illegal in Ashland as well, so the town will remain dry.

Injury case pending before 5th Circuit JACKSON — Gov. Phil Bryant is touting Mississippi’s tort reform laws as a conduit for economic development in new court papers that ask a federal court to uphold the constitutionality of a $1 million cap on non-economic damages. The lawsuit, first filed in the federal court in 2006, contends Mississippi’s $1 million cap on

non-economic damages is unfair. The cap was put into place a decade ago because of complaints that Mississippi was a “judicial hellhole” because of multimillion dollar verdicts in damage lawsuits. In October, the 5th U.S. Circuit of Appeals in New Orleans told attorneys for Lisa Learmonth and Sears Roebuck and Co. that briefs in the case were old and it wanted new ones filed. The 5th Circuit recently allowed Bryant to file a brief supporting the law.

Amory moves back to elected police chief AMORY — Aldermen in Amory have reversed a decision to change how the city’s police chief is selected. They voted Monday to return the job to an elected position. The original vote for an appointed police chief occurred earlier this month. The board also voted to appoint alderman Bill Lyle as police commissioner to act as a liaison between the chief of police and the board. Some local residents had complained aldermen

were trying to take away people’s voting rights. Police Chief Ronnie Bowen had opposed appointing the police chief. Bowen has been police chief for 19 years and first took office on May 18, 1993.

Lawyer wants delay in prison riot trial NATCHEZ — An attorney wants to delay the trail of an inmate charged with participating in a deadly prison riot in Mississippi. One guard was killed and 20 people were injured in the May 20 riot at the privately-run Adams County Correctional Facility in Natchez. The prison holds illegal immigrants convicted of crimes in the U.S. Pedro Gonzalez De Los Reyes is scheduled for trial Feb. 4 in U.S. District Court in Natchez. His attorney has asked to delay the trial so he can have more time to examine the evidence in the case.

Forrest County inmates back in custody HATTIESBURG Two

Forrest County inmates who walked away from a work detail are in custody. Sheriff Billy McGee tells The Hattiesburg American William Russell Oswalt and Jerred Paul King, both of Petal, were last seen Monday picking up trash on U.S. Highway 49. McGee says both men were found Tuesday at the home of a girlfriend of one of the suspects. They will both be charged with misdemeanor escape. King had been in jail since Dec. 10, while Oswalt was booked on Nov. 26. Both are facing drug court violations. McGee said although the suspects attempted to flee when approached by deputies, both were apprehended without incident. Jessica Al-Kashgari and Allison Lena Dapozzol were both charged with aiding and abetting an escapee.

Gunn sentenced for role in 2010 slaying JACKSON— The second of two men convicted in the 2010 shooting death of a deliveryman has been sentenced to life in prison without parole. Bennie Gunn was sentenced Tuesday by Hinds County Circuit Judge Bill Gowan. Gowan also sentenced Gunn to more than 100 years for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, carjacking, aggravated assault and armed robbery. Prosecutors say Gunn and Dante Evans fatally shot William Morris, who was making a delivery to a convenience store on Sept. 10, 2010.

The Sun Herald reports 43-year-old Debra Mitchell entered the plea Tuesday and was released on a $25,000 unsecured bond pending sentencing on March 18. Mitchell, of Carriere, was charged with bank fraud in a bill of information.

Obama, Boehner ‘pretty close’ to a deal WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama says he and Speaker John Boehner are “pretty close” to a grand deal that would avoid a “fiscal cliff,” even as talks have ground to a standstill with just days left before broad tax increases and steep spending cuts take effect. Obama says that in the aftermath of the Newtown, Conn., massacre of school children, the country deserves a compromise by the nation's political leaders. He urged lawmakers to “peel off the partisan war paint” and strike a deal. Of congressional Republicans, he said: “they

keep on finding ways to say no, instead of finding ways to say yes.” Obama spoke to reporters after announcing a broad administrationwide response to Friday's shooting at an elementary school that killed 26 people including 20 first graders. His comments came shortly after the White House threatened Wednesday to veto Boehner's backup plan for averting the “fiscal cliff.” Boehner's measure, a so-called Plan B, would block tax increases from being triggered Jan. 1 on everyone but those whose incomes exceed $1 million. The White House said Boehner's package did not raise enough revenue from the country's top earners, would leave too big a deficit-reduction burden on the mid-

DOES GOD REALLY EXIST? Does God really exist or is belief in God a blind leap of faith? Do we have sufficient evidences to prove the existence of God? The Bible does not set out to prove the existence of God, but states, “In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth’ (Gen 1:1).. The lines of evidence for the existence of God are external and internal evidences. External evidences can be seen as we look at nature. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork” (PS 19:1). We can understand the invisible things of God by the things that were made. “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse” (Rom 1:20). God is descried as the creator of heaven, earth and all things. “For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God” (Heb 3:4). Man owes his existence to God. Those who deny the existence of God, have no way of knowing who they are, where they came from, what they are to do while

dle class and omitted tax breaks used by families and businesses. “I'd like to get it done before Christmas,” Obama said. “There's been a lot of posturing up on Capitol Hill instead of going ahead and getting stuff done, and we've been wasting a lot of time.” Boehner is planning a House vote on his proposal on Thursday, hoping it would raise pressure on President Barack Obama to make concessions as both sides continue reaching for a bipartisan deal on averting the “fiscal cliff.” Without an agreement among lawmakers, broad tax increases on nearly all taxpayers and budget-wide spending cuts will be triggered in early January.

2 inmates fled high rise jail using rope CHICAGO — Employees at a high-rise jail in downtown Chicago knew something wasn't right when they arrived to work and saw a makeshift rope fashioned from bed sheets hanging from the bars of a cell window about 20 stories above the ground. Inside the jail cell Tuesday morning, investigators found a broken window and bars inside a mattress, according to an FBI affidavit. Stuffed under blankets on two beds were clothing and sheets, shaped to resemble a body, the affidavit said.

Shattered Newtown tries to make sense of tragedy BY DAVID KLEPPER AND KATIE ZEZIMA Associated Press

NEWTOWN, Conn. — For a third straight day Wednesday, funeral processions rolled through a grieving Connecticut town trying to make sense of the massacre of 20 first-graders and six adults in an elementary school less than two weeks before Christmas. Dr. Joseph Young, an optometrist, said he has already been to one funeral and plans to attend two or three more. “The first few days, all you heard was helicopters and now at my office all I hear is the rumble of motorcycle escorts and funeral processions going back and forth throughout the day,” he said. “It’s difficult. It’s just a constant reminder.” Most students in Newtown went back to school Tuesday except those from Sandy Hook Elementary, where a gunman armed with a military-style assault rifle slaughtered the children and six teachers and administrators Friday. He also killed his mother at her home. If police know why, they have not said. Students at Sandy Hook, which serves kindergarten through fourth grade, will resume classes in a formerly shuttered school in a neighboring

is an illusion, it arose out of nothing, it has existed eternally. Believers in God may have the forgiveness of sins and the hope of Heaven by believing, repenting, confessing Christ, being baptized and being faithful (Heb 11 :6; Acts 7:30; Matt 10:32-33; Acts 2:38; Rev 2: I0). “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good (Ps 14:1). Do we still believe in God? Have we decided to deny the existence of God? Are we willing to become a Christian and then live the Christian life according to the Bible?

his family has relatives who are firefighters. Family friend Laura Stamberg of New Paltz, N.Y., whose husband plays in a band with Daniel’s father, Mark, said Daniel was a thoughtful boy who held doors for people and would sit with another child if he saw one sitting alone. She said that on the morning of the shooting, Mark Barden played a game with his son and taught him a Christmas song on the piano. “They played foosball and then he taught him the song and then he walked him to the bus and that was their last morning together,” Stamberg said. At the same time, in the town of Stratford, family and friends gathered to say goodbye to Victoria Soto, a 27-yearold teacher who has been hailed as a hero for dying while trying to shield her students, some of whom managed to escape. “She had the perfect job. She loved her job,” said Vicky Ruiz, a friend of Soto’s since first grade. Every year, she said, Soto described her students the same way. “They were always good kids. They were always angels,” even if, like typical first-graders, they might not always listen, Ruiz said.

Obama designates January deadline for gun proposals BY JULIE PACE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Spurred by a horrific elementary school shooting, President Barack Obama tasked his administration Wednesday with creating concrete proposals to reduce the gun violence that has plagued the country. “This time, the words need to lead to action,” said Obama, who set a January deadline for the recommendations. He tasked Vice President Joe Biden with leading the effort and vowed to push for implementation of the policy proposals without delay. The president, who exerted little political capital on gun control despite a series of mass shootings in his first term, bristled at suggestions that he had been silent on the issue during his first four years in office. But he acknowledged that the Friday's deadly shooting had been “a wake-up call for all of us.” Twenty children and six adults were killed when a man carrying a militarystyle rifle stormed Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., Friday morning. The president also called on Congress Wednesday to reinstate an assault weapons ban that expired in 2004 and to pass legislation that would close the gun show “loophole,” which allows people to purchase firearms from private dealers without a background check. Obama also said he wanted Congress to pursue the possi-

here and where they are going when this life is over. They are forced to one of three conclusions about the universe: the world

community in January. President Barack Obama on Wednesday pressed Congress to reinstate an assault weapons ban, which expired in 2004. He also called for stricter background checks for people who seek to purchase weapons and limited high capacity clips. “This time, the words need to lead to action,” said Obama, who set a January deadline for the recommendations. In the meantime, mourners overlapped at back-to-back funerals that started Monday and will continue all week. The first of Wednesday’s funerals in Newtown was for 7-year-old Daniel Barden, a gaptoothed redhead and the youngest of three children whose family described him as “always smiling, unfailingly polite, incredibly affectionate, fair and so thoughtful towards others, imaginative in play, both intelligent and articulate in conversation: in all, a constant source of laughter and joy.” Hundreds of firefighters formed a long blue line outside St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church as bells sounded and bagpipes played. Daniel wanted to join their ranks one day, and many came from New York, where

bility of limiting high-capacity ammunition clips. “The fact that this problem is complex can no longer be an excuse for doing nothing,” Obama said. “The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence doesn't mean we can't steadily reduce the violence.” The president's announcement Wednesday underscores the urgency the White House sees in formulating a response to the Newtown shooting. The massacre has prompted several congressional gun rights supporters to consider new legislation to control firearms, and there is some concern that their willingness to engage could fade as the shock and sorrow over the Newtown shooting eases. Obama said it was “encouraging” to see people of different backgrounds and political affiliations coming to an understanding that the country has an obligation to prevent such violence. Appealing to gun owners, Obama said he believes in the Second Amendment and the country's strong tradition of gun ownership. And he said “the vast majority of gun owners in America are responsible.” “I am also betting that the majority, the vast majority, of responsible lawabiding gun owners would be some of the first to say that we should be able to keep an irresponsible, lawbreaking few from buying a weapon of war,” Obama said. Obama also tasked the Biden-led team with con-

sidering ways to improve mental health resources and address ways to create a culture that doesn't promote violence. The departments of Justice, Education, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security, along with outside groups and lawmakers, will all be part of the process. Biden's prominent role in the process could be an asset for the White House in getting gun legislation through Congress. The vice president spent decades in the Senate and has been called on by Obama before to use his long-standing relationships with lawmakers to build support for White House measures. The president challenged the National Rifle Association, the country's most powerful gun lobby and key backer of many Republican politicians, to join the broader effort to reduce gun violence as well. “Hopefully they'll do some self-reflection,” Obama said of the NRA. The NRA made its first comments since the shooting on Tuesday, promising to offer “meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.” Obama said that while taking the necessary steps to reduce gun violence would take commitment and compromise, he said it could be achieved if Washington summons “even one tiny iota of the courage of those teachers, that principal in Newtown summoned on Friday.”

Today

Home sales monitor Economists anticipate that sales of previously owned homes increased last month. Sales rose 2.1 percent in October to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.79 million. Forecasts call for the National Association of Realtors to report today that sales rose in November to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.84 million. An improving job market and record-low mortgage rates have helped drive sales this year.

RB Richardson thinks Saban will stay at Alabama BY CHUCK MURR Associated Press

BEREA, Ohio — Trent Richardson would be surprised if Nick Saban followed him from Alabama to the Cleveland Browns. Saban, who will lead the Crimson Tide against Notre Dame in the BCS national championship game in Miami on Jan. 7, has been mentioned as returning to the NFL, perhaps with the Browns if second-year coach Pat Shurmur is fired at season’s end. “I can’t see him coming to the NFL,” Richardson said Wednesday. “I would be very shocked.” And Richardson knows the coach quite well. After all, he was a standout

Tebow ‘stunned’ by choice McElroy BY DENNIS WASZAK JR. Associated Press

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — It all began as an intriguing idea, the thought of Tim Tebow running around as an exciting spark for the New York Jets’ offense. Then it all fizzled — before it really even started. Rex Ryan acknowledged Wednesday that he had higher expectations for the seldom-used Tebow in the Jets’ wildcat-style offense. And, so did the NFL’s most popular and maligned backup quarterback. “For some reason, it hasn’t

panned out to my expectations and maybe Tim’s, either,” Ryan said. “Defenses have attacked us a little differently. Maybe that’s a contributing factor to it.” Ryan would not go into detail about why he chose Greg McElroy over Tebow to replace the struggling Mark Sanchez as the team’s starting quarterback with two games left in a lost season. He reiterated his comments from Tuesday that it was his decision — and his alone — saying it was a “gut” call. It was one that, predictably, didn’t sit well with Tebow.

“Obviously, I’m a little disappointed,” he said. “You try to handle it the best you can.” Tebow paused for a second when asked if he felt passed over by Ryan choosing McElroy instead of him. “All you can ask for and all you want is a chance,” he said. “A chance to go out there and play the game you love, and help this team win football games. That’s all I wanted.” Ryan didn’t consult with any players before making the call — other than to tell Sanchez after the Jets’ 14-10 loss to Tennessee on Monday night that he was out as the

starter. The fact McElroy leapfrogged Tebow appears to be a clear indicator that the Jets think very little of Tebow as a quarterback, the player they traded a fourth-round draft pick to Denver for in March despite having just signed Sanchez to a big contract extension. “I think we had a vision of using Tim in different ways,” Ryan said. “Obviously, we used him as a personal punt protector. I thought maybe we would use him in other Please see TEBOW | 9

Notre Dame’s Kelly wins AP coach of the year BY RALPH D. RUSSO Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — After two seasons as Notre Dame coach, Brian Kelly decided he wasn’t spending enough time doing the best part of his job: coaching players. Kelly changed that in 2012, and he shuffled his staff. Then, with Kelly more in tune to his team and the assistants in sync with the head coach, Notre Dame went from unranked to top-ranked. For leading the Fighting Irish to the BCS championship for the first time, Kelly was voted Associated Press college football coach of the year. “When you’re talking about the coach of the year, there’s so many things that go into it,” Kelly said. “I know it’s an individual award and it goes to one guy, but the feelings that I get from it is you’re building the right staff, that you’ve got the

right players and to me that is a validation of the program. That you put together the right business plan.” Kelly received 25 votes from the AP college football poll panel. Penn State’s Bill O’Brien was second with 14 votes. Stanford’s David Shaw (four), Texas A&M’s Kevin Sumlin (three), Kansas State’s Bill Snyder (two) and Alabama’s Nick Saban (one) also received votes. Kelly is the first Notre Dame coach to win the AP award, which started in 1998. Of course, the Irish haven’t played for a national championship since 1988 and spent much of the past two decades trying to find a coach who could restore a program that was becoming a relic of its proud past. It turns out Kelly was the answer. He arrived in 2010 after two decades spent climbing the coaching ladder and winning

big everywhere he worked. But in the world of college football, Notre Dame is a long way from Grand Valley State — where Kelly won Division II national titles — and Cincinnati, his previous stop, for that matter. “I think the job tends to distract you,” Kelly said earlier this week. “There are a lot of things that pull you away from the primary reason why you want to be head coach of Notre Dame, and that is graduate your players and play for a national championship. “Now, to do that you have to have the pulse of your football team and you’ve got to have relationships with your players. If you’re already going around the country doing other things other than working with your football team, it’s hard to have the pulse of your team.” Kelly said he made a point of spending more time with the team this year.

“That’s why I got into this. I want to develop 18 to 21 year olds. My development as the head coach at Notre Dame this year has been about getting back to why you would want to coach college players. You want to learn about them; you want to know their strengths and weaknesses; you want to help them with leadership skills; you want to help them when they’re not feeling confident in their ability. “For me, that is why it’s been the most enjoyable year as the head coach at Notre Dame, is that I got a chance to spend more time with my team.” The first step, though, toward a successful 2012 season for Notre Dame can be traced to Feb. 10. On that day Kelly announced his coaching staff. The most notable change was moving Chuck Martin from Please see KELLY | 9

South Carolina gets past Appalachian State 74-69 Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Lakeem Jackson scored a season-high 16 points to help South Carolina pull away late for a 74-69 victory over Appalachian State Wednesday night. Appalachian State pulled within two points on a layup by Jay Canty with 21 seconds remaining, but Eric Smith connected on one free throw for the Gamecocks (7-3) and LaShay Page sank two with 4

seconds remaining to seal the win. Jackson and Page combined for nine of South Carolina’s final 16 points, beginning with seven straight to start a 9-0 run that broke open a tight game. Page, who was scoreless until that point, began the run with a three-point play and two free throws to give South Carolina a 63-58 lead with 4:19 remaining. Jackson and Mindaugas

Kacinas added layups to end the run. Page scored seven points in the final 4:42. Appalachian State kept chipping away and had a chance to tie but Nathan Healy missed a 3-pointer that could have forced overtime. The Mountaineers (2-8) trailed by as many as 11 points in the first half but used a 15-5 run to take their first lead, 3534, on a fast-break basket by Canty with 28 seconds left.

Bruce Ellington gave South Carolina a 37-35 halftime lead on his 3-pointer with 7 seconds remaining. Kacinas, who made his first career start, recorded his first career double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds. Brenton Williams chipped in 11 points, and Eric Smith had a career-high nine assists. Tevin Baskin, Mike Neal and Canty each scored 16 points to lead the Mountaineers.

Pro football NFL standings

CONTINUED FROM 8

running back for Saban at Alabama before being selected in the first round by Cleveland in April. Richardson ran for 1,679 yards last season for the Crimson Tide. “How can you get tired of winning,” Richardson asked. “He’s got so much going there. He has no reason to leave. He gets what he needs and he treats his program like the NFL (anyway). He makes sure his players are prepared for the game and prepared for the next level when the time comes.” Any exit to the NFL wouldn’t be foreign to Saban, who led Alabama to national titles in 2009 and 2011. He left his post at LSU, in fact, to become coach of the Miami Dolphins in 2005. After going 15-17 in two seasons there, he went back to the SEC, this time in Tuscaloosa, Ala. “I can see him staying at Alabama,” Richardson said, “and retiring at Alabama.” Saban, who played and coached at Kent State, has Cleveland roots, as well. He was the Browns defensive coordinator from 1991-94, which has helped to spark the speculation.

defensive backs coach to offensive coordinator to fill the hole left when Charley Molnar became the coach of Massachusetts. Martin was defensive coordinator for Kelly at Grand Valley State, then replaced his boss as head coach of the Division II power when Kelly was hired by Central Michigan after the 2003 season. The move might have seemed odd to some, but Kelly, who built his reputation on offensive acumen, wanted a right-hand man who understood exactly what he wanted. To replace Martin on the defensive side, Bob Elliot was hired from Iowa State to coach safeties. Harry Hiestand was hired away from Tennessee to replace offensive line coach Ed Warinner, and co-defensive coordinator Bob Diaco, who had been with Kelly at Central Michigan and Cincinnati, was promoted to assistant head coach. “The voice of your coordinators has got to be in lock step with the head coach,” Kelly said.

Cruz: Meeting Pinto family was ‘toughest by far’ BY TOM CANAVAN Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — For much of his hour-long visit with the family of a 6-year-old boy killed in the Connecticut school shootings, Victor Cruz talked about football, life and young Jack, the child who idolized him. Tears were shed. Feelings were shared. Cleats and gloves worn by Cruz to honor Jack Pinto at Sunday’s game against Atlanta were given to his family. The New York Giants wide receiver somberly recounted Wednesday his meeting with Pinto’s parents and brother in Newtown, Conn. He struggled in his re-

telling only when asked about the family’s decision to bury the child in the receiver’s No. 80 Giants jersey. The father of an infant girl, Cruz stopped for a moment, and his eyes became watery. “You never go through some circumstances like this and circumstances where a kid faces or a family faces something of this magnitude at their school,” Cruz said. “This definitely was the toughest by far.” Jack Pinto was buried on Monday and Cruz telephoned the family to ask whether he could visit them Tuesday. The family disclosed after Friday’s massacre that Cruz was Jack’s fa-

vorite player. The boy was one of 20 first-graders and six adults killed in the shootings at the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Cruz drove to Newtown with his girlfriend, Elaina Watley, and their daughter, Kennedy. “I had no expectations. I was a little nervous,” Cruz said. “I just didn’t know how I was going to be received. You never know when they are going through something like that. You never know how it is going to go down.” Seeing the family outside the home along with some local children made Cruz feel better. “They were still pretty emotional, crying and

stuff like that,” Cruz said. “I saw how affected they were by just my presence alone. I got out and gave them the cleats and the gloves and they appreciated it. The older brother (Ben) was still emotional, so I gave them to him.” Cruz had written “Jack Pinto, My Hero” and “R.I.P. Jack Pinto” on his cleats before the Giants’ loss to the Falcons Sunday in Atlanta. The 26-year-old player best known for his salsa dances after touchdowns, signed autographs for the children before heading inside. “I didn’t want to go in there and make a speech,” Cruz said. “I just wanted to go and

spend some time with them and be someone they could talk to, and be someone they can vent to, talk about how much of a fans they are of the team, or different times they watched the Super Bowl.” Cruz spent that part of the visit sitting in the chair where Jack’s father, Dean, sat when he watched the Giants’ Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots in February. It was a day Jack got to see his favorite team win a championship. “It was just an emotional time,” Cruz said. “I spent a little bit of time with them. We got to smile a little bit, which was good for them.

TEBOW CONTINUED FROM 8

ways or something.” As did Tebow. He has done his best to hide his frustration throughout the season, but it was clear Wednesday that he is unhappy. He spoke in a low tone, and the usually constant smiles were few and far between. He also shrugged his shoulders a few times at questions, almost struggling to say the right things without coming off as angry. Tebow was also asked point-blank whether he pictures himself being a member of the Jets next season. “I’ll just wait until the end of the season,” he said, “and look at everything then.” Tebow did say he has not asked to be traded after the season, but indicated that even he is a bit puzzled why the Jets brought him to New York. “Umm, some things are

hard to understand,” he said. “They’re trying to do the best they can, and I understand that.” General manager Mike Tannenbaum told The Associated Press during training camp that he and Ryan kicked around the idea of going after Tebow while sitting in an airport and seeing that Denver was about to acquire Peyton Manning. Tannenbaum said the two jumped at that idea, and so did offensive coordinator Tony Sparano — and added that owner Woody Johnson was completely on board. For Johnson, it would be a publicity touchdown along with a chance to sell tickets, personal seat licenses and mountains of merchandise. For Ryan and Sparano, it would be adding a proven winner, an athlete who had his limitations as a passer, but added so much more in intangibles.

Ryan constantly called Tebow “a football player,” someone whose role would go far beyond just being the No. 2 quarterback behind Sanchez. But as each week came and went, Tebow has had a limited role in the offense after it was expected he would provide a boost. Even in situations that seemed tailor-made for Tebow — third-and-short, goal-line — he mostly remained on the sideline as a mere spectator. “We’re kind of ignoring the fact that he had two

cracked ribs,” Ryan said. Sure, he was injured on Nov. 11 at Seattle, played three offensive snaps the next week at St. Louis and not at all in the next two games. But, it was clear that Tebow had gone from a key piece to a spare part for the Jets long before that. The wildcat offense that had been so anticipated and cloaked in secrecy during training camp became little more than what many considered an ineffective distraction. “Did I expect to have a little more success running

the wildcat? Maybe I did,” Ryan said. “I’m sure I did.” Tebow’s numbers are far from special: He has rushed for 102 yards on 32 carries and is 6 of 8 for 39 yards. And perhaps the most disturbing stat of all: zero touchdowns. Tebow hadn’t been given a series on offense all season until Monday night, when he came in following two solid drives by Sanchez. It started with an 11-yard run by Joe McKnight, followed by a 12-yard rumble by Tebow. And then, nothing. The Jets were forced to

punt a few plays later and Tebow’s night was done. Now, Tebow is left wondering what his role will be the last two games of the season because No. 2 on the depth chart isn’t guaranteed. That could be Sanchez, meaning Tebow could be inactive. Or, as Ryan suggested, all three could be in uniform.

KIRK COUSINS, QB, REDSKINS With Robert Griffin III a late scratch due to an injured knee, fellow rookie quarterback Kirk Cousins stepped into the starting role and showed the rest of the NFL that RG3 isn’t the only passer capable of leading the Redskins to victory. Cousins — a fourth-round pick out of Michigan State — completed 26-of-37 passes for 329 yards and two touchdowns, leading Washington to a 38–21 win over the Browns on the road in Cleveland. DREW BREES, QB, SAINTS New Orleans marched right by Tampa Bay, with a 41–0 blowout win over the NFC South rivals. Brees led the way, completing 26-of-39 passes for 307 yards, four TDs and zero INTs during the Saints’ first shutout victory since 1995. After throwing a combined nine INTs and only four TDs in three straight losses, Brees’ effort was a breath of fresh air for a franchise that has been on an emotional roller-coaster this season due to the BountyGate saga. RUSSELL WILSON, QB, SEAHAWKS The Hawks flew across the border to play the Bills at the Rogers Centre in Ontario, Canada. And Wilson looked right at home in the dome, completing 14-of-23 passes for 205 yards and one TD through the air, while scrambling for another 92 yards and three trips to the end zone on the ground during a 50–17 beatdown of Buffalo. The Seahawks have scored 108 points over the past two weeks and are playing their best football at the right time of the season. ADRIAN PETERSON, RB, VIKINGS In his ongoing quest to become the seventh running back in NFL history to gain 2,000 yards on the ground in a single season, Peterson had his best effort of the season. “All Day” had 24 carries for 212 yards and an 82-yard TD during a 36–22 win at St. Louis. Peterson now has 1,812 yards and 11 TDs this season, needing just 188 yards to join Chris Johnson, Jamal Lewis, Terrell Davis, Barry Sanders, Eric Dickerson and O.J. Simpson in the 2,000-yard club. CHRIS JOHNSON, RB, TITANS CJ2K the track star was ready to run Monday night, with his all-white cleats serving a second purpose — to honor the Newtown, Conn., shooting victims by writing the names of all 26 killed in the tragedy on his fleet feet. Johnson had 21 carries for 122 yards and one TD — a 94-yard sprint to the end zone that marked the longest run in Oilers-Titans franchise history and the longest in the NFL since 2006. The run was the singular highlight from a slug fest that saw the Titans defeat the Jets, 14–10.

Fantasy Dream Team

Saturday, Dec. 22 Atlanta Tennessee Minnesota St. Louis Washington New Orleans San Diego Oakland Buffalo Cincinnati New England Indianapolis Cleveland N.Y. Giants Chicago San Francisco

By NATHAN RUSH Athlon Sports Editor

It’s fantasy football Super Bowl time. This week, the majority of leagues across the country will crown a champion who will win bragging rights, trophies, a few dollars, a trip to Vegas, who knows? And while every league is different, there are several key players acquired throughout the season who push a contender over the top, regardless of scoring, league size or any other variable. With that in mind, here’s a look at this year’s best fantasy stars — with a mix of high-rounders who lived up to expectations, longshots who panned out and undrafted All-Pros who helped make up for a few expensive, high-pick busts. QB – Peyton Manning, Broncos After at least four neck surgeries and a wiped out 2011 season, even the biggest Manning fans were worried he might not return to top form. But 4,016 yards and 31 TDs later, no one is doubting No. 18 anymore.

RB – Adrian Peterson, Vikings Just nine months after suffering a brutal knee injury, “All Day” slipped in fantasy drafts due to health concerns. Enjoy the one-year discount. After 1,812 yards and counting, he’s be a top-three pick again in 2013.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has been the most powerful force in fantasy football after beginning the season as its biggest question mark.

RB – Marshawn Lynch, Seahawks “Beast Mode” has been in full effect all season, as Lynch has produced either 100 yards or one TD in nine games this season.

WR – Brandon Marshall, Bears The highly anticipated reunion with Jay Cutler has gone even better than most anticipated, as Marshall has 107 catches for 1,398 yards and 11 TDs.

RB – Alfred Morris, Redskins Unlike most Week 1 waiver wire pickups, the rookie out of Florida Atlantic has continued to shine — with 1,322 yards and nine TDs.

WR – Demaryius Thomas, Broncos If Thomas could catch passes from Tim Tebow, imagine what he could do with Peyton Manning? The answer is 1,210 yards and eight TDs.

WR – A.J. Green, Bengals There was no sophomore slump for the Bengals’ go-to wideout. Green has been unbelievably consistent, scoring TDs in 10 of 14 games.

TE – Tony Gonzalez, Falcons The future first-ballot Hall of Famer is going out with 87 catches for 880 yards and eight TDs after being largely overlooked on draft day.

The best fantasy football values of the 2012 season

QB – Robert Griffin III, Redskins Those who took a late-round, backup QB flier on RG3 — hoping he would be the second-coming of Cam Newton — have been rewarded with 2,902 passing yards, 748 rush yards and 24 total TDs from the rookie.

Packers quarterback AARON RODGERS was a fantasy football MVP last season, passing for 4,643 yards and 45 TDs, while rushing for 257 yards and three scores. Although he has not repeated last year’s statistics, Rodgers had a strong 291-yard, three-TD effort against the Bears in Week 15 and faces a favorable matchup against the Titans in Week 16 — Super Bowl week in most fantasy leagues.

FALCONS (12-2) AT LIONS (4-10) Atlanta is one win away from locking up homefield in the NFC Playoffs, which should happen on Saturday night against Detroit’s not ready for prime time players. TITANS (5-9) AT PACKERS (10-4) Green Bay has posted a 6–0 record in Title Town at Lambeau Field since losing its season opener against San Francisco. VIKINGS (8-6) AT TEXANS (12-2) Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson is 294 yards short of breaking Eric Dickerson’s all-time single-season rushing record of 2,105 yards, set in 1984. RAMS (6-7-1) AT BUCCANEERS (6-8) Tampa Bay coach Greg Schiano appears to have hit the rookie wall, losing four straight contests. REDSKINS (8-6) AT EAGLES (4-10) Robert Griffin III’s jersey sales continue to break all-time records thanks to games like the one he had against Philly in Week 11 — when RG3 completed 14-of-15 passes and threw four TDs. SAINTS (6-8) AT COWBOYS (8-6) Texas native Drew Brees returns to the state where he won an undefeated Class 5A state title as a senior at Westlake High School in 1996. CHARGERS (5-9) AT JETS (6-8) Mark Sanchez has finally been benched, and Greg McElroy — not Tim Tebow — will start against the Chargers’ rolling blackout defense. RAIDERS (4-10) AT PANTHERS (5-9) The Cats have won three of their last four, but are only 2–5 in Charlotte this season. BILLS (5-9) AT DOLPHINS (6-8) Buffalo beat Miami, 19–14, on Thursday night in Week 11 in a game that featured four FGs and a Leodis McKelvin punt return TD for the Bills. BENGALS (8-6) AT STEELERS (7-7) Cincy can clinch its second straight playoff berth if it can snap a five-game losing streak against the Steelers — and do so in Pittsburgh. PATRIOTS (10-4) AT JAGUARS (2-12) Expect the frustrated Pats to beat the spots off the clawless Jags in this lopsided matchup. COLTS (9-5) AT CHIEFS (2-12) Andrew Luck needs just 74 yards to break Cam Newton’s rookie passing record of 4,051 yards. BROWNS (5-9) AT BRONCOS (11-3) Peyton Manning probably won’t need a John Elway-inspired “Drive” to beat these Browns. GIANTS (8-6) AT RAVENS (9-5) Road warriors last December and January, the G-Men have lost three straight away from home. BEARS (8-6) AT CARDINALS (5-9) After losing five of last six games, Jay Cutler thinks 2012 is “right up there” with 2009. 49ERS (10-3-1) AT SEAHAWKS (9-5) Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll — formerly of Stanford and USC, respectively — renew their Pac-12 rivalry under the lights on Sunday night.

Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS It may feel like you’re already there, but the solstice tomorrow is the official start of winter. On this the last day of the season, say goodbye to the adventures, pleasures, hardships and happenings of the past year. The passionate Sagittarius sun and the invigorated Aries moon will help you imagine what you have to look forward to next. ARIES (March 21-April 19). It can be hard to take care of yourself without sacrificing a relationship when partners seem to need you so much. You can accomplish this and more. You’ll also take care of the relationship without sacrificing your soul. TAURUS (April 20May 20). You go by feelings. So even though you logically know better than to bank on a person’s potential, if your gut feeling is strong enough, you’ll buy into the promise of a kindred soul. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The minute you expect to make money at an endeavor, you set yourself up for a compromise. The payer and payee must be on the same page for the transaction to occur. Consider the perks of amateur status. CANCER (June 22July 22). Your secret addiction isn’t really a secret. People know what you like, and they want to give you just that. By the end of the day, you might feel a bit spoiled by all the provisions. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The opportunity you are given will come with a caveat. That part could be a deal breaker. Stay your ground. If you’re willing to lose it all, you’ll probably walk away with exactly what you wanted in the first place. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Before you can be in control of yourself and your life, you must know yourself. So the time that you spend pondering your past and your inner world will be instrumental in growing your personal power.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Mutual trust is developed slowly over a long period of time. So whether you deal with shareholders, a potential mate or in-laws, expect the relationship-building to be a long-term process. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). There’s a new sharpness to your mind. You’ll be savvy in a pinch, do well on a test or say just the right thing to make strangers laugh. People will want to know you better. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You love to jump into something new and open yourself up to the possibilities. An entrepreneurial spirit takes hold of you today, and you’ll begin on a path that many will join at a later date. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Dig deeper to figure out the root of an issue. You may be surprised at what you find. For instance, maybe what you think is a commitment problem is actually just a transportation problem. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). No wonder people want to talk with you. You listen with your heart, and this shows in your face. You don’t offer up too many opinions. In fact, you realize that sometimes it’s better not to have an opinion at all. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Riches, talent and wealth don’t make you immune to relationship woes. There’s

something comforting in the fact that everyone on Earth struggles at some time with the art of getting along. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 20) Your intentions for your personal life are clear, and because you express them so well, you’ll be pleased with what unfolds in the next six weeks. Projects advance, and you’ll take on an exciting responsibility in January. You’ll develop a talent in February. You’ll celebrate family additions in April. Capricorn and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 4, 39, 45 and 12. ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “Tell me what to say to interest a Virgo woman. I know it’s probably a bad idea to date someone who lives in my apartment building, but I would love to ask her out. Right now we’re friendly. I’ve chatted with her three times. I run into her a few times a week. How can I move this to the next level? I’m a Capricorn man.” Your Virgo woman is one of the hardest to “hit on,” because she’s analytical to the point of being critical, and she has no compunction about weeding out prospects in the first few minutes of meeting them. So if you’ve had three successful conversations, you’re already doing well. Just don’t fall into the trap Capricorn achiever-types sometimes end up in: mentioning your impres-

sive accomplishments to get her attention and respect.

DEAR ABBY: I confess, I can be a procrastinator. Last year, my holiday cards sat on my desk, blank and unaddressed until almost Easter, when it was far too late to send them. This year, I figured brevity was better than not getting them sent, so I had photo cards made and wrote short notes. Several of my relatives have now told me they felt “snubbed and offended” by my short notes. One aunt is particularly upset and said (via my mother) that my cards “clearly showed I don’t care about people, and I should have written proper letters or sent nothing.” Was I wrong to think “some” card was better than no card at all? — HOLIDAY CARD WRITER, AKRON, OHIO DEAR HOLIDAY CARD WRITER: I don’t think you were wrong. As to appeasing your aunt, who appears to be one of those individuals who hang onto imagined slights and delivers her messages via other people, perhaps you should consider leaving her off your Christmas card list from now on for fear of offending her further. DEAR ABBY: My 20-year-old son, “P.J.,” dresses in Army fatigues when he goes out. His clothes and boots — including name patches — make him look like a soldier. Because he seems so fascinated with the outfit, I asked him if he wants to consider joining the military. He

said he’s not interested, he just likes “the look.” I ’ m Abigail e m b a r Van Buren r a s s e d w h e n Dear Abby we’re out together. Friends have commented, “I didn’t know P.J. enlisted.” When strangers have approached him and thanked him for his service and for protecting our country, he says, “You’re welcome!” How am I supposed to respond when people ask me obvious questions? Isn’t it illegal to dress in Army attire when you’re not affiliated with the military? — MOM OF A CIVILIAN IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR MOM: I can see why you are embarrassed. You should be. What your son is doing may not be illegal, but it is dishonest. When you are asked if he is in the military, you should continue to tell the truth. Because your son doesn’t set people straight when he is thanked for his service, what he’s doing is disrespectful, unethical and unfair to anyone who actually has served.

Movie criticâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice in upcoming movies Since 2012 is about to finish its twelve month run, I thought it would be appropriate to take a brief look at the movies coming our way soon.

Child has written several books about the character, a semi-vigilante. Reacher wants to do the right thing as he travels the states. The trailer definitely backs up his ability to right wrongs. â&#x2013; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Les Miserablesâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Starring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfried. The film is based on the 1862 novel by Victor Hugo. It is about a prisoner released from jail, who shortly afterwards breaks his parole and is being hunted by a ruth-

Shooting renews argument over video-game violence BY LOU KESTEN Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; In the days since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., a shell-shocked nation has looked for reasons. The list of culprits include easy access to guns, a strained mentalhealth system and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;culture of violenceâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the entertainment industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s embrace of violence in movies, TV shows and, especially, video games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The violence in the entertainment culture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; particularly, with the extraordinary realism to video games, movies now, et cetera â&#x20AC;&#x201D; does cause vulnerable young men to be more violent,â&#x20AC;? Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There might well be some direct connection between people who have some mental instability and when they go over the edge â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they transport themselves, they become part of one of those video games,â&#x20AC;? said Gov. John Hickenlooper of Colorado, where 12 people were killed in a movie theater shooting in July. White House adviser David Axelrod tweeted, â&#x20AC;&#x153;But shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t we also quit marketing murder as a game?â&#x20AC;? And Donald Trump weighed in, tweeting, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Video game violence & glorification must be stopped â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it is creating monsters!â&#x20AC;? There have been unconfirmed media reports that

20-year-old Newtown shooter Adam Lanza enjoyed a range of video games, from the bloody â&#x20AC;&#x153;Call of Dutyâ&#x20AC;? series to the innocuous â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dance Dance Revolution.â&#x20AC;? But the same could be said for about 80 percent of Americans in Lanzaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s age group, according to the Pew Internet and American Life Project. Law enforcement officials havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t made any connection between Lanzaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible motives and his interest in games. The video game industry has been mostly silent since Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attack, in which 20 children and six adults were killed. The Entertainment Software Association, which represents game publishers in Washington, has yet to respond to politiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; criticisms. Hal Halpin, president of the nonprofit Entertainment Consumers Association, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d simply and respectfully point to the lack of evidence to support any causal link.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unlikely that lawmakers will pursue legislation to regulate the sales of video games; such efforts were rejected again and again in a series of court cases over the last decade. Indeed, the industry seemed to have moved beyond the entire issue last year, when the Supreme Court revoked a California law criminalizing the sale of violent games to minors. The Supreme Court

decision focused on First Amendment concerns; in the majority opinion, Justice Antonin Scalia wrote that games â&#x20AC;&#x153;are as much entitled to the protection of free speech as the best of literature.â&#x20AC;? Scalia also agreed with the ESAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s argument that researchers havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t established a link between media violence and real-life violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Psychological studies purporting to show a connection between exposure to violent video games and harmful effects on children do not prove that such exposure causes minors to act aggressively,â&#x20AC;? Scalia wrote. Still, that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make games impervious to criticism, or even some soulsearching within the gaming community. At this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s E3 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Electronic Entertainment Expo, the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest U.S. gathering â&#x20AC;&#x201D; some attend-

ees were stunned by the intensity of violence on display. A demo for Sonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Last of Usâ&#x20AC;? ended with a villain taking a shotgun blast to the face. A scene from Ubisoftâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Splinter Cell: Blacklistâ&#x20AC;? showed the hero torturing an enemy. A trailer for Square Enixâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hitman: Absolutionâ&#x20AC;? showed the protagonist slaughtering a team of lingerie-clad assassins disguised as nuns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ultraviolence has to stop,â&#x20AC;? designer Warren Spector told the GamesIndustry website after E3. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe that we are fetishizing violence, and now in some cases actually combining it with an adolescent approach to sexuality. I just think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in bad taste. Ultimately I think it will cause us trouble.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The violence of these games can be off-putting,â&#x20AC;?

but not necessarily because of the violence per se.â&#x20AC;? The problem, Grant said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;is that violence as a mechanic gets old really fast. Games are amazing possibility spaces! And if the chief way I can interact with them is by destroying and killing? That seems like such a waste of potential.â&#x20AC;? There are some hints of a sneaking self-awareness creeping into the gaming community.

tor for the gaming website Polygon, said Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The video-game industry is wrestling with the same issues as movies and TV. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s this tension between violent games that sell really well and games like â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Journey,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; a beautiful, artistic creation that was well received by critics but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell much.â&#x20AC;? During November, typically the peak month for pre-holiday game releases, the two best sellers were the military shooters â&#x20AC;&#x153;Call of Duty: Black Ops II,â&#x20AC;? from Activision, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Halo 4,â&#x20AC;? from Microsoft. But even with the dominance of the genre, Crecente said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;There has been a feeling that some of the sameness of war games is grating on people.â&#x20AC;? Critic John Peter Grant said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also sensed a growing degree of fatigue with ultra-violent games,
