Haley Barbour remain in custody until a court battle is Haley resolved over Barbour whether Barbour properly handled their orders to go free. According to Mississippi Department of Corrections records obtained by The Associated Press: • Three of the 21 were convicted of murder.

JACKSON — Two sisters released from a Mississippi prison last year on condition that one donate a kidney to the other were saddened and disappointed they weren’t among dozens receiving full pardons from the governor, one of the women said Thursday. As one of his last acts as governor, Haley Barbour granted more than 200 reprieves, including to those convicted of murder. Most were full pardons, though some received suspended sentences. Jamie and Gladys Scott had served nearly 16 years

Barbour freed Jamie Scott because she suffers from kidney failure, but he agreed to let Gladys go on the condition she follow through on her offer to donate a kidney to her sister within one year. Barbour noted at the time that Jamie Scott’s dialysis was costing Mississippi about $200,000 a year. Gladys Scott said Thursday that she “just started crying” when she found out they didn’t get a full pardon.

4,000 workers to be off and on in Entergy upgrade By Pamela Hitchins phitchins@vicksburgpost.com Four thousand temporary workers will cycle in and out of Vicksburg and Warren and Claiborne counties in the next six to eight months, as Grand Gulf Nuclear Power Station completes a scheduled refueling and an upgrade that will make it the most powerful plant in the country, a local civic group was told Thursday. Darron Case, Entergy Mississippi’s manager for resource planning, told the Vicksburg Rotary Club that the upgrade, which will increase Grand Gulf’s power output by about 178 megawatts or 13 percent, is under way at the nuclear plant about 30 miles south of Vicksburg in Claiborne County. “It will be the same facility, with the

Entergy resource planning manager same personnel working there, but will produce increased electricity,” Case said. “This will be the single largest upgrade ever completed and will make Grand Gulf again the single largest power producer in the U.S.” Case said the improvements will primarily increase its “steam handling” capability, not its nuclear components. About 700 full-time employees, many of whom live in Vicksburg, normally

staff Grand Gulf. The refueling outage and power upgrade will require about 4,000 specialists working temporarily at various times, said Case. The estimate is nearly double what had previously been predicted to fill travel trailer parks, hotels, motels and short-term rentals in the area and increase receipts at local shops, restaurants and other retail outlets. Grand Gulf’s last refueling outage early in 2010 — bringing about 1,000 temporary workers — was credited for a nearly 15 percent increase in Vicksburg hotel and bed and breakfast occupancy rates over the same period in the previous year. The 2012 refueling shutdown is scheduled for mid-February. Refueling outages normally last See Entergy, Page A7.

JACKSON — The Mississippi House of Representatives will pay $110,000 a year to Nathan Wells, a former campaign worker and state Republican Party employee, to act as an assistant to new House Speaker Philip Gunn, R-Clinton. “I would use him basically as a chief of staff,” said Gunn, who hasn’t settled on a title for Wells. The Nathan House Wells Management Committee voted unanimously Thursday to hire Wells, a 30-yearold Brandon resident who has assisted Gunn and others in their campaigns. Gunn said he needs someone to act as a liaison for him. Gunn noted that the lieutenant governor, who leads the Senate, has a large staff. “Our speaker needs someone like that in his office, and probably others,” said Rep. Ray Rogers, R-Pearl. Former Speaker Billy McCoy, a Rienzi Democrat, who repeatedly voiced pride in the frugal operation of the House, had only a secretary officially assigned to him. Gunn said the new position is needed to lessen his workload and reduce the political duties of the House clerk, now Andrew Ketchings. Gunn said the previous House Clerk, Don Richardson, advised McCoy on policy and helped assign bills. He said those duties had political overtones he wants Ketchings to avoid. “Mr. Ketchings needs to See House, Page A7.

2nd arrest made in crossfire shooting A Vicksburg man faces charges of aggravated assault and attempted aggravated assault in a Dec. 29 shooting in which a woman caught in the crossfire on Patton Street was wounded, Lt. Sandra Williams said. Williams said officers arrested Joseph Lane, No. 5 Lydia Place, about 4:30 p.m. Thursday on a warrant charging him in the shooting. He was being held without bond in the county jail pending an initial appearance today in Vicksburg Municipal Court. She said officers on patrol saw him at Washington and Mattingly streets and arrested him. Lane is the second person arrested in the shooting, which occurred about 12:30 p.m. Dec. 29. Police arrested George Love Jr., 16, 804 Patton St., at the scene and charged him as an adult with attempted aggravated assault. He was later released on a $15,000 bond. Williams said Love and Lane were shooting at each other from opposite sides of the street when Shirel Hall, 18, 1200 Mission 66, drove through the street and was wounded. She was later treated and released from University of

crime & fire from staff reports

Mississippi Medical Center.

Shopper arrested, charged with drugs A shoplifting call at The Home Depot, 50 Halls Ferry Park, resulted in the arrest of a Vicksburg man for possession of the prescription painkiller oxycodone, Vicksburg police Lt. Sandra Williams said. She said officers responding to the 2:35 p.m. call arrested Benjamin Brewer, 30,1104 Freetown Road, on the drug charge after the oxycodone was found during a search. He was released on $15,000 bond.

Convict held again, for drug charges A Vicksburg man faces drug charges after his arrest Thursday at the Mississippi Department of Corrections office, 2409 Clay St., Vicksburg police Lt. Sandra Williams said. She said Eto Moore, 33, 1304 E. Magnolia St., was being held without bond in the Warren County Jail pending an initial

court appearance. The MDOC has placed a hold on Moore for probation violation, according to county booking records. He was arrested as he reported in to his probation officer.

Gun, jewelry missing on First North Street A .380-caliber handgun and jewelry were reported stolen from a home in the 1000 block of First North, Vicksburg police Lt. Sandra Williams said. No value was given on the items.

Fire destroys home in Claiborne County Fire destroyed a mobile home in Claiborne County south of Port Gibson early this morning, according to information from the Claiborne County Fire Department. Firefighter Robert Byrd said firefighters responding to the 2:14 fire at the mobile home of Russell Dorsey, 3036 Woodvine Road, arrived to find the trailer engulfed in flames. He said no one was at home and the cause had not been determined.

Hawaii, New York win pageant prelim Miss Hawaii Lauren Cheape and Miss New York Kaitlin Monte were the winners in the final round of preliminary competition at the Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas. Cheape won Thursday

night’s talent portion with a jumprope routine to “Hawaii Five-O,” and Monte won lifestyle and fitness. Miss America 2012 will be crowned Saturday in a competition aired on ABC’s WAPT in

Jackson. Miss Mississippi Mary Margaret Roark, who was crowned at the end of the state pageant in Vicksburg in July, performed her talent Thursday night.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. famously exhorted all people to community service when he said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?’” Events scheduled in Vicksburg to mark the civil rights leader’s 83rd birthday continue that call to service, and will kick off Saturday at 2 p.m. with the eighth annual MLK Day parade along downtown Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Washington Street. “We want to see Vicksburg grow and become a more diverse city, not just to say it but to show it,” said the parade’s organizer, Sylvester Walker. “I think we do that by getting back to service. Young people often think it’s a bad thing to be a servant, but that’s not how Dr. King lived his life. He believed it was a great thing to serve others.” The federal holiday in King’s name, established 26 years ago, became in 1993 the only holiday to be set aside by Congress as a national day of service. King was 39 when he was assassinated in 1968 in Memphis. This year’s parade theme is The Dream Continues, Let Freedom Ring, with cogrand marshals, Walker said — local fitness enthusiast and business owner Linda Fondren and inventor and Vicksburg native Lawrence J. Hardge, founder of Hardge Investments. About 100 participating groups and individuals are expected, from school marching bands to churches and businesses that will enter floats, he said. Donors, sponsors and last-minute parade entrants may contact Walker at 601678-8263. At 3 p.m. Sunday, elected and community officials will participate in a community forum, including a question and answer period on improving the city. Ruth Lowe said the event at Greater Grove Street M.B. Church, 2715 Alcorn Drive, will feature state Rep. George Flaggs, Mayor Paul Winfield, District Attorney Ricky Smith, Vicksburg Warren School District Superintendent Dr. Elizabeth Duran Swinford and Grove Street’s pastor, the Rev. Casey Fisher. Admission is free, and the forum is sponsored by the local chapter of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, Lowe said. Monday, a state and national holiday, will feature both morning and evening events to honor King, who visited Vicksburg several times during the years he worked to foster civil rights.

Mississippi gets C-, ranks 45th in school ratings By Jeff Amy The Associated Press JACKSON — Mississippi’s K-12 schools once again trail in an influential measure of school performance. Though it gets good marks for high standards, Education Week’s Quality Counts report gives the state’s school system a C- overall, saying the state is particularly lagging on test scores and the amount of

Court orders new trial in hot-oil death case JACKSON (AP) — The Mississippi Supreme Court has ordered a new trial for a Hancock County woman convicted of killing her husband with hot cooking oil. The court on Thursday denied a motion by prosecutors to reinstate Edna Mae Sanders’ conviction and sentence. Sanders’ conviction and life sentence was overturned in March by the state Court of Appeals. The Mississippi Attorney General’s office petitioned the Supreme Court to reverse the Appeals Court. Edna Mae Sanders was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in the 2008 death of Sherman Sanders. Sherman Sanders died about a week after he was burned at the couple’s Diamondhead home in 2006. In court documents, Sanders claimed the trial judge excluded evidence of her allegations of her husband’s violent history and character. Prosecutors said there are no records of Edna Sanders reporting prior allegations of abuse. They said Sanders poured the hot oil on her 53-year-old husband while he was sleeping at their home on July 27, 2006. The Appeals Court said in its ruling that Sanders’ state of mind during the attack, and the grounds for her reasonable apprehension that she and her children were in serious imminent danger were evidence that the jury should have been allowed to hear.

money it spends on schools. Mississippi ranked 45th among the states, with South Dakota getting the worst grade, a D+. Education Week gave its best grade, a B+, to Maryland. The publisher of the weekly education newspaper gave Mississippi an ‘F’ on K-12 achievement, which is mostly based on scores on the National Association of Educational Progress, although

scores did show improvement in some areas. “Fourth-and eighth-grade NAEP scores are definitely something we have to improve on,” said Pete Smith, a spokesman for the state Department of Education. Mississippi did get an A for its state standards, which Smith attributed to recent upgrades. “These reports tell us things we should already know,”

charter schools to offer alternatives to traditional public schools, more prekindergarten classes, and higher qualifying standards for teachers. But though he said he doesn’t want to further cut the K-12 budget, he has discouraged hopes that Mississippi will spend significantly more on public schools. “We must change our discussion of education from one only of dollars and cents to

one that makes sense,” Bryant said in his inaugural address Tuesday. Education is also getting renewed attention from others in Mississippi. Improving educational achievement emerged as the top priority of people who participated in meetings as part of the Blueprint Mississippi strategic planning effort, sponsored by the Mississippi Economic Council.

One killed, one injured in Jackson shooting JACKSON (AP) — Police are investigating a double shooting that left one woman dead and the suspected shooter critically wounded at a Jackson home. Hinds County Coroner Sharon Grisham-Stewart said 28-year-old Charity Porter was shot three times — once in the neck, chest and abdomen. Porter was found dead lying by the front door around 1 p.m. Thursday when police arrived at the home in the 2300 block

of Lake Glen Drive in northwest Jackson. Colendula Green, spokeswoman for the Jackson Police Department, would not release the name of the man suspected of shooting the woman. She said he was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He was taken to the University of Mississippi Medical Center with injuries that Green described as life-threatening.

Teen declared dead as van der Sloot says guilty to killing woman in Peru BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — The parents of Natalee Holloway, the American teenager who disappeared in Aruba in 2005, say their ordeal hasn’t ended with a judge declaring their daughter dead. Their lawyers say they hope a young Dutchman seen leaving a bar with Mississippi native Holloway on the last day she was seen alive might ultimately be brought before a U.S. court on charges stemming from the case. Joran van der Sloot, 24, pleaded guilty Wednesday in Peru to the 2010 slaying of a young woman he had met in a Lima casino. That plea from the Dutchman described as the prime suspect in the Holloway case came hours before Thursday’s hearing in a Birmingham court where Dave and Beth

Holloway watched the difficult step of a judge ruling their daughter legally dead. “We’ve been dealing with her death for Natalee the last 6½ Holloway years,” Dave Holloway said after Thursday’s hearing. He said the judge’s order closes one chapter in the ordeal, but added: “We’ve still got a long way to go to get justice.” Thursday’s hearing was scheduled before van der Sloot — who had been questioned in Holloway’s disappearance — pleaded guilty to the 2010 murder of a 21-year-old Peruvian, Stephany Flores. Flores was slain five years to the day

Bold plan proposed to save coastal La. involves $50 billion, 50-year timeline NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A $50 billion, 50-year proposal aspires to stop coastal land loss in Louisiana, build new levee systems to protect cities and even begin to slowly reverse the trend of eroding marsh that has turned the entire southern portion of the state into one of the nation’s most vulnerable regions to sea level rise. On Thursday, Gov. Bobby Jindal’s coastal team said it would like to spend billions of dollars the state expects to get over the next half-century from increased royalties from offshore drilling, fines from the BP PLC oil spill and other sources to try to save the coast. The idea is garnering praise from some scientists and skepticism from others who openly wonder if the coast should be saved. Since the 1930s, the state’s coast has lost about 1,900 square miles, an area larger than Rhode Island. Louisiana’s delta, created by the Mississippi River, has been

said Rachel Canter, executive director of Mississippi First, a group pushing for changes in how the state educates its children. Incoming Gov. Phil Bryant has vowed to focus on improving reading in early grades and to create options for high school students to enroll simultaneously at community colleges to discourage dropouts. He also says he supports

Since the 1990s, the federal and state governments have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on coastal restoration, but those efforts have been unable to stop land loss and the White House has backed plans for a much more aggressive program to save coastal Louisiana from disappearing. falling apart because of levees on the Mississippi, oil drilling and other causes. Since the 1990s, the federal and state governments have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on coastal restoration, but those efforts have been unable to stop land loss and the White House has backed plans for a much more aggres-

sive program to save coastal Louisiana from disappearing. “Our choice is simple: embrace a robust suite of solutions that address our crisis head on, or give up on the coast,” the plan says. Optimistically, the plan if carried out foresees an end to land loss in 30 years and creating up to 859 square miles of land over the next five decades. If nothing is done to stem the rising seas and land loss, the plan predicts the state would lose 1,756 square miles over that time. Much of that new land, the plan says, would be built by opening up diversions on the Mississippi River and the Atchafalaya River to flush sediment and freshwater into marshlands now sinking and eroding. Also, it calls for building new ridges, pumping sediment into eroded marshes, building new shorelines, shoring up coastal spots that have fallen apart and pouring sand onto disappearing barrier islands.

after Holloway, an 18-year-old from the wealthy Birmingham suburb of Mountain Brook, disappeared. Dave Holloway said he hopes van der Sloot, who awaits sentencing, gets a 30-year prison term sought by Peruvian prosecutors. Shortly after Flores’ death on May 30, 2010, van der Sloot told police he had killed the woman in Peru in a fit of rage after she discovered on his laptop his connection to Holloway’s disappearance. Police forensic experts disputed the claim. Attorneys said both parents spoke of hopes that van der Sloot’s next stop will be Birmingham, where he faces federal charges accusing him of extorting $25,000 from Beth Holloway to reveal the location of her daughter’s body.

OUR OPINION

Internet

The most free form of communication

The Internet is the most free form of communication ever developed. Anyone can put up a website or blog and spout opinions — whether brilliant, inane or very wrong. But governments, in their lust to control our lives, just can’t leave the Internet alone. The latest threat comes from an agency of the United Nations, the 193-member International Telecommunications Union. Members include North Korea, Cuba, Iran, China, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and other governments not exactly known for embracing free speech. America is “asleep at the router” regarding U.N. attempts to take over the Internet, Federal Communications Commissioner Robert McDowell warned Dec. 19. He was speaking before the editorial board of the Washington Times. “Thus far, those who are pushing for new intergovernmental powers over the Internet are far more energized and organized than those who favor the Internet freedom and prosperity.” He said that many foreign governments are upset at what they see as U.S. control of the Internet. The Times reported that the ITU “will meet

in Dubai next December (2012) to renegotiate the 24-year-old treaty that deals with international oversight of the Internet. A growing number of countries are pushing for greater governmental control and management of the Web’s availability, financial model and infrastructure.” In fact, the United States government has only nominal control over the Internet, Jim Harper told us; he’s director of information policy studies at the libertarian Cato Institute. The key to control is the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. ICANN assigns a name and numerical address for every Internet domain. This keeps the Internet uniform globally. It truly is a cohesive “net,” instead of a collection of separate systems. This duty formerly was informally performed by the U.S. government. But in 1998, President Bill Clinton spun off ICANN, which is a nonprofit headquartered in Marina del Rey, Calif. Harper said that despite its location in the United States, ICANN so far is basically “free of government control. This is a mushy organization that sort of works.” Keeping ICANN indepen-

dent “is a long-running battle that will continue forever.” Some people don’t like that. Regimes such as those in Iran, Saudi Arabia and China want more control to censor the Net. And, Harper said, “European bureaucrats want to make sure the Internet is run with ‘public values’ in mind” — a socialist attitude. Another threat comes from our own Congress in the form of the Stop Online Piracy Act, House Resolution 3261, by Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas. We have criticized it before for trying to take over the Internet to prevent “piracy” of videos, music and other information. As we have noted, sufficient safeguards already exist for online copyrights. No further legislation is needed. Harper warned that passing SOPA would put the U.S. government in charge of the Internet, which then would “just give the Europeans an excuse to try to take control.” That is another reason to defeat SOPA. Benign neglect is the best way to treat the Internet. The U.S. government should resist U.N. meddling. Information wants to be free.

smart money Q: I really enjoy reading your column. I need some advice. As a member of a labor union for 20 years, I have between $35,000 and $40,000 in what they call a “pension trust account.” I’m no longer a member of this union and would like to put my money into some type of BRUCE account elsewhere. Is there anywhere I can move this money and be able to get some of it out at a later date to pay off my bills (about $10,000) and be debt-free? With the economy going like it is, I’m thinking all of the money won’t be there for me by the time I’m old enough to retire. (I’m 48 now.) — S.P., via e-mail

WILLIAMS

A: The first thing you must do is contact the labor union where you were a member for so many years. Find out exactly what rights, privileges and responsibilities you have under this pension trust account. Whether there is any way this money can be withdrawn is determined by this pension program’s rules. Write to the program administrators and request a written response. Should they not respond, you might then look into whether a state agency can make an inquiry on your behalf or, in the alternative, have an attorney contact them. There is nothing more to be said until you find out what the pension’s position is in this matter. •

Painkiller will worsen drug abuse, experts fear

Coke says it issued fungicide tip to FDA

NEW YORK (AP) — A second drug company has confirmed it plans to market a new form of the powerful and addictive painkiller hydrocodone, worrying experts who fear a narcotics “arms race” that could worsen a national problem with prescription drug abuse. Israel-based Teva Pharmaceuticals says its product, TD Hydrocodone, could be worth as much as $500 million annually in sales. The drug is in the final stages of testing, but the company has not yet applied for Food and Drug Administration approval. Four companies have been working to develop pure forms of hydrocodone, the main ingredient in Vicodin, Lortab and other painkillers. They have been mostly quiet about their plans. But William Marth, chief executive of the company’s North Wales, Pa.-based North American division, gave a preview of TD Hydrocodone

WASHINGTON (AP) — Coca-Cola Co. acknowledged Thursday it was the company that alerted federal regulators about low levels of fungicide in its own orange juice and in competitors’ juice, prompting juice prices to rise and increased government testing for the residue. The Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency have said orange juice is safe to drink and the levels found are below levels of concern. Atlanta-based Coca-Cola, which makes the Minute Maid and Simply Orange brands of orange juice, said Thursday it had notified FDA of the low levels of the fungicide carbendazim in the company’s orange juice and in competitors’ juice. The FDA had said Monday that an unnamed company had told the agency about the fungicide and confirmed Wednesday the company was Coca-Cola.

The associated press

The Zogenix pharmaceutical headquarters in San Diego. during an investors’ conference in San Francisco. “We believe that’s another product that will get approved and can be a three-, four-, $500-million product in a couple of years,” Marth said. He said the drug could be on the market in the “relatively near future,” adding it should replace revenue lost when the patent on another Teva drug, the multiple sclerosis treatment Copaxone, expires in 2014. A recording of the speech was posted on the company’s website on Thursday. Teva did not respond to requests for more information. But documents filed with the National Institutes of Health show the company has been testing 12-hour,

Documents show how Fed missed housing collapse WASHINGTON (AP) — Ben Bernanke presided over his first meeting as Federal Reserve chairman in March 2006 believing the nation’s economy could pull off a “soft landing” from falling home prices. Three months later, Bernanke had begun to grasp that he and others had underestimated the risk housing posed to the economy. Newly released transcripts of Fed meetings during Bernanke’s first year as chairman show that, among Fed officials, he often expressed the most concern about housing. But no official, according to the transcripts, recognized the extent of the damage a housing bubble would cause. A year later, the housing market’s collapse helped send the nation into its worst recession since the Great Depression. In fact, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, then a Fed official, expressed confidence in September 2006 that “collateral damage” from housing could

be avoided. The transcripts released Thursday covered the eight meetings of the central bank’s chief policymaking body, the Federal Open Market Committee, during 2006. That included the last meeting of Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan in January of that year and Bernanke’s first meeting in March after he had succeeded Greenspan as chairman. The Fed releases minutes of the FOMC discussions three weeks after the meetings but full transcripts do not come out until five years later. The transcripts for 2006 show that at first Bernanke did not express concern about the cooling of the housing market after a boom that had pushed sales and home prices to record levels. “I agree with most of the commentary that the strong fundamentals support a relatively soft landing in housing,” Bernanke told his fellow FOMC members at his first meeting as chairman in March.

extended-release pills containing up to 45 milligrams of pure hydrocodone. Existing medicines like Vicodin, which are not extendedrelease, contain no more than 10 milligrams of hydrocodone mixed with a nonaddictive painkiller like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Another company, San Diego-based Zogenix, plans to file an application early this year for another pure hydrocodone product, Zohydro. Purdue Pharma, the Stamford, Conn.-based maker of OxyContin, and Denmarkbased Egalet are also working on hydrocodone pills, according to documents they have filed with the U.S. government.

President Obama seeks power to merge agencies WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama will ask Congress today for greater power to shrink the federal government, and his first idea is merging six sprawling trade and commerce agencies whose overlapping programs can be baffling to businesses, a senior administration official said. Obama will call on Congress to give him a type of reorganizational power last held by a president when Ronald Reagan was in office. The Obama version would be a so-called consolidation authority allowing him to propose mergers that promise to save money and help consumers. The deal would entitle him to an up-or-down vote from Congress in 90 days. It would be up to lawmakers, therefore, to first grant Obama this fast-track authority and then decide whether to approve any of his specific ideas. The White House said Obama was to address his proposals for government reform this morning. In an election year and a political atmosphere of tighter spending, Obama’s motivation is about improving a giant bureaucracy — but that’s hardly all of it. To voters sick of dysfunction, Obama wants to show some

Politically, his plan would allow him to do so by putting the onus on Congress and in particular his Republican critics in the House and Senate, to show why they would be against the pursuit of

a leaner government. Obama also has an imperative to deliver. He made a promise to come up with a smart reorganization of the government in his last State of the Union speech. That was nearly a year ago.

At the time, Obama grabbed attention by pointing out the absurdity of government inefficiency. In what he called his favorite example, Obama said: “The Interior Department is in charge of salmon while they’re in freshwater, but the

about six weeks. The power upgrade is expected to be completed by summer to early fall, Case said. Entergy Mississippi is also completing a $200 million purchase of a natural gasfired plant in West Jackson, Case said. The purchase allows the utility to increase power production at onethird the cost of building a new plant, he told Rotarians.

Entergy will spend about $750 million in the next five years and up to $2 billion in the next 10 years to maintain its current equipment and plants, which include Vicksburg’s Baxter Wilson facility as well as Grand Gulf. Baxter Wilson, which can burn natural gas and fuel oil in electricity production, was built in 1966. Grand Gulf station was built in the 1970s and 1980s,

and began operating in 1985. The plant uses a controlled nuclear reaction to generate heat to boil water. The resulting steam is piped under pressure to a turbine, which spins to generate electricity that goes onto a grid with power from other plants. The station is in the process of obtaining license renewal to operate for 20 more years.

be a clerk for all the body,” Gunn said of the former Republican state House member from Natchez. The committee voted to pay Ketchings $112,500 a year, about $30,000 less than the previous clerk. Gunn said Ketchings’ salary is equal to what the former state representative from Natchez was making previously. “There was an overwhelming belief that the previous

Commerce Department handles them when they’re in saltwater. And I hear it gets even more complicated once they’re smoked.” The White House said the problem is serious for consumers who turn to their government for help and often do not know where to begin. Not in decades has the government undergone a sustained reorganization of itself. Presidents have tried from time to time, but each part of the bureaucracy has its own defenders inside and outside the government, which can make merger ideas politically impossible. That’s particularly true because “efficiency” is often another way of saying people will lose their jobs. Obama hopes to enhance his chances by getting Congress to give him the assurance of a clean, relatively speedy vote on any of his proposals. There is no clear sign that Obama would get that cooperation. He spent much of 2011 in gridlock with Republicans who control the House and can halt votes in the Senate. Should he prevail, Obama’s first project would be to combine six major operations of the government that focus on business and trade.

Former S.D. Gov. Janklow Pardons dead at 72 from cancer PIERRE, S.D. — As governor of South Dakota for 16 years, Bill Janklow was always in a hurry — pushing lawmakers to approve his proposals and racing to disaster sites to take charge. His need for speed also likely played a role in his one regret: the 2003 fatal traffic accident that landed him in jail and ended his political career. As South Dakota’s attorney general, governor and congressman, the colorful politician dominated the state’s political landscape for more than a quarter century, changBill ing the face Janklow of the state’s economy, education system and tax structure. Even his enemies — and there were many — admitted the Republican had a talent for getting things done, even as they complained that he ran roughshod over his opponents. Janklow died shortly before 11 a.m. Thursday of brain cancer after being moved to hospice care in Sioux Falls earlier in the week, his son Russ Janklow said. He was 72.

Officials: Pakistani PM called UK, fearing coup ISLAMABAD — Pakistan’s prime minister telephoned the top British diplomat in the country this week expressing fears that the Pakistani army might be about to stage a coup, a British official and an official in Islamabad said today. The call, which one official said was “panicky,” suggests there was — or perhaps still is — a genuine fear at the highest level of the Pakistani government that the army might carry out a coup or support possible moves by the Supreme Court to topple the civilian leadership. Prime Minister Yousuf Reza Gilani asked High Commissioner Adam Thomson for

Britain to support his embattled government, according to the officials, who didn’t give their names because of the sensitivity of the issue. It’s unclear if the British government took any action. Such is the weakness of state institutions, Pakistani leaders have often looked to foreign powers, especially the United States and Gulf countries, to intervene in domestic affairs, mediate disputes between feuding power centers or “guarantee” agreements between them.

Space station to move to avoid old satellite WASHINGTON — The International Space Station is dodging a softball-sized piece of space junk. Mission Control told astronauts to fire the station’s engines briefly this morning to avoid a piece of an old communications satellite. It will be only the 13th time since 1998 that the station has moved because of debris. Debris travels at such high speed in orbit that it could cause a deadly puncture to the space station. The last time the station moved was in September. In June, astronauts had to take shelter in the Soyuz escape capsule as debris flew by.

Judge hears bid to delay Edwards trial GREENSBORO, N.C. — A federal judge in North Carolina will consider whether former presidential candidate John Edwards goes on trial later this month for alleged campaign finance violations. A hearing in Greensboro was scheduled for today. Lawyers said Edwards has an undisclosed medical condition that would make it difficult for him to attend the trial if it begins as scheduled on Jan. 30. Edwards’ team has requested a delay of at least two months.

Before ending his second term Tuesday, Republican Barbour gave full pardons to about 200 people. He suspended sentences for several other inmates, gave medical release to some and gave conditional clemency to one. Barbour issued a statement Wednesday saying about 90 percent of the people he pardoned or gave clemency were no longer in custody. Five inmates who had worked as trusties in the Governor’s Mansion were released Sunday. Four of them were convicted of killings, and one was convicted of burglary. At the request of Attorney General Jim Hood, Hinds County Circuit Judge Tomie Green issued an order late Wednesday to keep 21

inmates in custody to determine if requirements were met for release. The Mississippi Constitution says any inmate seeking a pardon must publish a public notice that he is seeking it. Before a pardon can be granted, the notice must appear for 30 days in a newspaper in or near the county where the inmate was convicted. Green ordered that the 21 inmates remain in custody until the Mississippi Department of Corrections provides proof that constitutional requirements were met. These 21 inmates are held by that court order: • Nichelle Elaine Brandon, aggravated assault. Medical suspension of sentence; under supervision of MDOC intensive supervision program (house arrest). • Aaron Brown, murder, concealed weapon, possession of a controlled substance. Full, complete and unconditional pardon. • Jesse Buie, felony DUI. Medical/conditional suspension of sentence. • Melissa Ann Cooper, sale of controlled substance.

Full, complete and unconditional pardon. • Karen Irby, two counts of manslaughter.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — A few of the Southeastern Conference’s biggest stars are taking their talents to the NFL. LSU All-American cornerback Morris Claiborne and defensive tackle Michael Brockers announced Thursday that they have decided to leave school early to enter the NFL draft. Claiborne won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation’s top defensive back. Brockers, a redshirt sophomore, had 54 tackles. They helped LSU reach the BCS Championship game, where they lost to SEC rival Alabama, 21-0 on Monday night. The Crimson Tide will also watch some of their stars from that championship game play on Sunday next season. All-Americans Trent Richardson, Dont’a Hightower and Dre Kirkpatrick said Thursday they’re leaving school to start pro careers. Richardson, a running back and Heisman Trophy finalist, and cornerback Kirkpatrick are both projected as potential top 10 picks. Hightower is also regarded as a potential firstrounder.

Porters Chapel romps past Rebul Davidson

leads VHS by Hornets

By Ernest Bowker ebowker@vicksburgpost.com Even without one of its top players, and with two others nursing sore ankles, Porters Chapel Academy’s train keeps rolling along. Ted Brisco scored 11 of his game-high 17 points in the first half, Talbot Buys had 14 of his 16 points in the second, and the Eagles routed Rebul Academy 64-15 Thursday night. The win kept PCA (13-2, 11-0) undefeated in District 5-A, even as it works through a late-season injury bug. Alton Burden missed Thursday’s game with a sprained ankle, and Brisco and point guard Peter Harris also rolled their ankles in games last week. Despite that, the Eagles crept out to a 14-2 lead over Rebul by the end of the first quarter, led by 21 points at halftime and outscored the Raiders 24-5 in the third quarter before cruising in the fourth. Collin Smith led Rebul with five points. Kawayne Gaston had 13 points for PCA — nine coming on three 3-pointers — and P.J. Lassiter had 11. “(Burden) creates a lot of speed for us. We started off pretty solid. Nothing was terrible. We just didn’t have that ‘wow’ factor,” PCA coach E.J. Creel said. “I’m pretty hard on them, though. I saw a whole lot we can work on before we get to South State.”

(G) Rebul 49, PCA 16 Mikayla Boyd scored all of her game-high 14 points and also grabbed nine rebounds in the first half, helping Rebul Academy (15-5, 9-1 District 5-A) pull away from Porters Chapel early. The Lady Raiders led by 12 points late in the first quarter before a quick sequence of three steals and three layups gave them a 20-2 lead. They extended it to 34-5 by halftime, then Rebul coach Shane Edwards subbed out most of his starters. The second half was more competitive, with Rebul outscoring PCA just 15-11. Ashlie Smith added nine points for Rebul. Senior Marshedia Graise led PCA with five points in her final home game, and Katie Locke scored four.

Mississippi State survives scare from Vols By David Brandt The Associated Press STARKVILLE — Dee Bost has been stuck in a slump the past few weeks and Thursday night’s game against Tennessee — filled with missed shots and turnovers — was quickly becoming another one to forget. Until the last play. A tense final possession turned into a raucous celebration as Bost came up with a crucial steal and dunk in the final seconds and No. 20 Mississippi State survived a late scare to beat Tennessee 62-58 at Humphrey Coliseum. “He’s been struggling some offensively, but you never fault his effort,” Bulldogs coach Rick Stansbury said. “And his effort came up big for us at the end.” Mississippi State (14-3, 1-1 Southeastern Conference)

avoided its first 0-2 start in league play since 2003. The Bulldogs led by 12 early in the second half, but TenDee nessee cut Bost it to 60-58 on Renaldo Woolridge’s 3-pointer with 44.2 seconds remaining. Tennessee got the ball back on a steal by Skylar McBee and had a chance to tie or win with less than 10 seconds remaining, but Bost slapped the ball away from Trae Golden and drove for the game-sealing dunk. “I was trying to put as much pressure on him as I could,” Bost said. “I knew they were going to try and go to him and get him the shot.” Bost, Renardo Sidney and

Arnett Moultrie all scored 13 points for the Bulldogs. Bost didn’t have a very good game until the final play, shooting 3-of-11 from the field and turning the ball over six times. But all that was forgotten as he dashed down the court, flushed the ball through the hoop with his right hand and listened to the crowd of 8,148 at Humphrey Coliseum roar its approval. Tennessee (8-8, 1-1) was led by Golden, who had 20 points. Jeronne Maymon scored 13 and Kenny Hall added 12 off the bench. “They’re big and athletic,” Hall said. “We were aggressive taking the ball to the basket, but that’s basketball, sometimes it happens like that.” The Bulldogs’ defense was embarrassed in a 98-88 loss to Arkansas in Saturday’s conference opener,

but they were much more stingy against the Volunteers. Wendell Lewis had five blocked shots and Moultrie added four as Tennessee had to work hard for almost all its points close to the basket. Mississippi State took a 36-27 lead at halftime, shooting 52 percent from the field. The Bulldogs kept their offense moving despite early foul trouble for Bost — the team’s starting point guard who owns the school record for assists. But backup DeVille Smith did a decent imitation, with five assists in 15 first-half minutes. MSU extended its lead to 12 early in the second half on a 3-pointer by Jalen Steele, but Tennessee fought back thanks to three 3-pointers by Golden and stifling defense that limited Mississippi State to 36 percent shooting in the second half.

A late goal kept alive Vicksburg High’s flickering playoff hopes Thursday night. Kyle Davidson booted a shot past the keeper from 25 yards away with less than three minutes to go in regulation, and the Gators escaped with a 2-1 victory over Greenville-Weston on a cold night at Memorial Stadium. The win kept Vicksburg’s faint playoffs hopes in Class 6A alive going into Tuesday’s clash Kyle with Warren Davidson Central. Vicksburg (3-9-3, 1-3 Division 3-6A) must first make up a two-goal difference against the Vikings, then beat Greenville-Weston again next Friday. The Gators also need Clinton to beat Warren Central twice, tonight at Viking Stadium and again next Friday. Davidson kept the playoffs a possibility with his second goal of the match Thursday. The Holmes Community College signee tied it with a goal right before the first-half whistle on a 35-yard shot. “This was way too close,” Davidson said. “The score shouldn’t have been like that. I think everybody was surprised at how well they (Greenville) played.” Vicksburg coach Kevin Watson was impressed. “I don’t think I’ve seen a team play with more heart all year,” Watson said of the Hornets. “They came out so hard. Mentally, they were ready to win this game. It was a struggle for us.” The Hornets (3-6, 0-4) dominated play for the first 20 minutes, outshooting Vicksburg 5-2. Their fifth try, at the 19:27 mark, proved fruitful. Gators sweeper Chad Williams tried to steer away a shot, but his clearing kick went right to Greenville’s Robert Phinisee. Phinisee launched a 30-yard kick that sailed over the hands of Vicksburg keeper Marc Grace for a 1-0 lead. Davidson tied it in the last two minutes of the first half, then won it in the last three minutes of the second. With overtime looming, Vicksburg’s Dennis Clark made a run but was met by two Greenville defenders. The ball got knocked away and Davidson got it at the 25. He smashed a low line drive that found the net for the game-winner.

(G) Vicksburg 7, Greenville-Weston 0 Vicksburg tallied five firsthalf goals and went on to an easy win over Greenville. The win moved Vicksburg (7-7, 2-2 Division 3-6A) into position to claim a playoff berth if they can beat Warren Central Tuesday. The Missy Gators won the first match between the two schools on Jan. 5, 2-1 on two goals by Tabitha Hayden. Hayden was at it again Thursday, scoring two goals. Seventh-grader Mikayla Banks and senior Maya Thomas had two goals apiece. Carley East had the other VHS goal.

College football NCAA president supports playoff INDIANAPOLIS — NCAA President Mark Emmert would support a four-team playoff in college football — as long as the field doesn’t grow. After giving his annual state of the association speech Thursday in Indianapolis, Emmert acknowledged he would back a small playoff if that’s what Bowl Championship Series officials decide to adopt. “The notion of having a Final Four approach is probably a sound one,” Emmert said when asked what he heard coming out of New Orleans this week. “Moving toward a 16-team playoff is highly problematic because I think that’s too much to ask a young man’s body to do. It’s too many games, it intrudes into the school year and, of course, it would probably necessitate a complete end to the bowl system that so many people like now.” Emmert spoke two days after the 11 Bowl Championship Series conferences met to discuss possible changes to the system starting in 2014, but there is no consensus yet. BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock said Tuesday that 50-60 possibilities for various changes were presented during a deliberate meeting in New Orleans. Hancock anticipates it will take another five to seven meetings to reach a conclusion in July.

NBA Howard breaks record as Magic beats Warriors OAKLAND, Calif. — Dwight Howard broke Wilt Chamberlain’s nearly 50-year-old NBA record for most free throw attempts in a game, making 21 of 39 in the Orlando Magic’s 117-109 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night. The Warriors hacked Howard intentionally throughout, sending the notoriously poor shooter to the line in record-setting fashion. Chamberlain shot 34 for the Philadelphia Warriors against St. Louis on Feb. 22, 1962. Howard finished with 45 points and 23 rebounds to propel the Magic to their third straight victory. Former Lanier star Monta Ellis had 30 points and 11 assists for the short-handed Warriors, who played without starters Stephen Curry and Dorell Wright.

Lil Wayne writing prison memoir Lil Wayne is offering a literary tour of his prison days. The million-selling rapper has signed with Grand Central Publishing, a division of Hachette Book Group, for the memoir “Gone Till November.” Hachette announced Thursday that the book will tell of his eight months spent at the Rikers Island complex on a gun possession charge. Scheduled to come out in November, two years after his release, the book will be an “internal monologue,” based on diaries he kept while in prison.

Original MTV veejays ink book deal MTV’s surviving original veejays have some wild times to share. Atria Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, announced Thursday that it had signed with Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter and Martha Quinn for an “uncensored” oral history of the music channel launched in 1981. The book is currently untitled and no release date had been set. A fifth veejay, J.J. Jackson, died in 2004. According to Atria, the veejays will talk about everything from partying with Van Halen to a disastrous “Paint the Mutha Pink” contest with “Pink Houses” singer John Cougar Mellencamp. The veejays also participated in an MTV oral history published last fall, but Atria spokesman Paul Olsewski said Thursday that they have saved their “best stories” for their own book.

Court charges Ferguson for filming A court has pressed charges against Britain’s Duchess of York for secretly filming orphanages in Turkey. The Turkish court on Thursday accused Sarah Ferguson in absentia of going “against the law in acquiring footage and violating privacy” of five children. She faces a maximum term of 22 1/2 years in prison if convicted. No trial date has been set. Ferguson, the former wife of Britain’s Prince Sarah Andrew, made an undercover trip to Turkey in Ferguson 2008 to examine orphanages for a British television program.

Carjacker arrested when he stops for gas A man in Oregon certainly didn’t check the fuel gauge on the car he’s accused of taking from a grocery store parking lot. Officers in Coos Bay quickly arrested the man when he stopped a few miles away to buy gas. Authorities said the man threw a woman out of the car Tuesday and sped off. The man pulled into a gas station and asked to pay cash, but the attendant was suspicious because the driver was agitated. The attendant said the man was obviously relieved when police drove past the station. But officers drove around the back and cornered the suspect. Police said he tried to drive away but crashed the Honda Civic into a light post.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Hollywood’s first big show on the road to the Academy Awards will help determine if silence is golden this season. The black-and-white silent film “The Artist” leads contenders for Sunday’s Golden Globes with six nominations, among them best musical or comedy, directing and writing honors for Michel Havanavicius and acting slots for Jean Dujardin and Berenice Bejo. Though still playing in narrow release, the film has found enthusiastic audiences and has been a critical darling since premiering at last May’s Cannes Film Festival, positioning it as the first silent movie with serious awards prospects since the first years of the Oscars in the late 1920s. In an age of elaborate computer effects and digital 3-D projection, “The Artist” is such a throwback to early cinema that it comes off as something entirely fresh. Tied for second-place at the Globes with five nominations each are George Clooney’s family tale “The Descendants” and the literary adaptation “The Help,” both competing for best drama. Also in the running for best drama: Martin Scorsese’s family adventure “Hugo”; Clooney’s political thriller “The Ides of March”; Brad Pitt’s sports tale “Moneyball”; and Steven Spielberg’s World War I epic “War Horse.” For best musical or comedy, “The Artist” is up against: Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s cancer story “50/50”; Kristen Wiig’s wedding romp “Bridesmaids”; Woody Allen’s romantic fantasy “Midnight in Paris”; and Michelle Williams’ Marilyn Monroe tale “My Week with Marilyn.” Along with honors from trade groups such as the directors, actors and writers guilds,

On TV “The 69th Golden Globe Awards” will be on NBC at 7 p.m. Sunday. the Globes help sort out key contenders for the Oscars, whose nominations balloting closes today, with nominees announced Jan. 24. A win Sunday can firm up a film’s prospects to triumph at the Oscars, though the Globes have had a bad track record predicting eventual best-picture winners in recent years. Over the last seven years, only one Globe best-picture winner — 2008’s “Slumdog Millionaire” — has gone on to claim the top honor at the Oscars. Before that stretch, the Globes had been on an eight-year streak in which one of its two bestpicture recipients went on to become the Oscar champ. Last year, “The Social Network” won best-drama at the Globes and looked like the early

Maroon 5 to headline Gulfport Music Festival GULFPORT (AP) — Pop rock band Maroon 5, whose latest release “Moves Like Jagger” featuring Christina Aguilera was at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, will headline this year’s Gulfport Music Festival. Organizers said that the second annual festival will take place at Jones Park May 18, 19, and 20. The event will feature more than 50 acts on three stages over three days.

Organizers plan to release a list of other performers later. Tickets go on sale today, with three-day passes selling for $75. Festival organizers also are looking for area musicians who would like to be featured in the festival’s Beer Garden. Performers should send an MP3 to www.gulfportmusicfestival@ msmediaradio.com along with contact information.

Oscar favorite. But momentum later swung to eventual Oscar best-picture winner “The King’s Speech.” The Globes generally do a better job predicting who might take home the acting Oscars. A year ago, all four actors who won Oscars earned Globes first — lead players Colin Firth for “The King’s Speech” and Natalie Portman for “Black Swan” and “The Fighter” supporting stars Christian Bale and Melissa Leo. Along with Clooney, Pitt and Williams, other established stars nominated for Globes include Meryl Streep in the Margaret Thatcher tale “The Iron Lady,” Leonardo DiCaprio in the J. Edgar Hoover saga “J. Edgar,” Glenn Close in the Irish drama “Albert Nobbs” and Kate Winslet in the stage adaptation “Carnage.” The lineup also features many newcomers to the awards scene, among them Wiig for “Bridesmaids,” Gordon-Levitt for “50/50,” Michael Fassbender for the sex-addict

drama “Shame,” Rooney Mara for the thriller “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” and Brendan Gleeson for the Irish crime tale “The Guard.” “The Help” picked up three acting nominations: Viola Davis for dramatic actress and Octavia Spencer and Jessica Chastain for supporting actress. Adapted from Kathryn Stockett’s best-seller about black maids speaking out about their white employers during the civil-rights movement, the hit drama has been a careermaker for many of its collaborators, including first-time director Tate Taylor, a childhood friend of Stockett, and producer Brunson Green. The Globes are presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a group of about 85 entertainment reporters for overseas outlets. Ricky Gervais returns as host for the third-straight year, despite uneasy moments a year ago when he took sharp swipes at celebrities and Golden Globe organizers themselves.

The Vicksburg Post

‘Legacy’ should pass up paddling sorority Dear Abby: I have been accepted to a school that’s the alma mater of several of my relatives. My mother, several aunts and other family members all belonged to one sorority at this college. They are urging me to pledge there and uphold the family tradition. They say they had some of the best times of their lives as members of that sorority chapter. The members do well academically, as the sorority insists on it. They made lifelong friends, and their sorority contacts have been extremely helpful personally and professionally. Although this chapter is very exclusive and accepts only the best-of-the-best, I will have no problems getting in, not only because of my academic record but also because I’m a “legacy.” So what’s the problem? This sorority chapter still uses the paddle. Technically they don’t haze — that is, have any initiation stunts — but they do use the paddle for disciplinary purposes. When I mention my concerns about the

paddling to my mother and aunts, they say I should suck it up, as the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. One of my aunts said she thinks the rules and discipline would be beneficial for me because she considers me kind of a “wild child.” Abby, I don’t know if you know anything about sororities, but I’m asking for an objective opinion from someone not directly involved. — Possibly Paddled Pledge Dear P.P.P.: I joined a sorority in college, and I never heard of a sorority hitting pledges or active members. Some fraternities may have allowed it, but certainly not sororities. Whether your aunt thinks you could use the discipline is beside the point. Striking someone with a paddle

TOMORROW’S HOROSCOPE

BY BERNICE BEDE OSOL • NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If you keep in mind that it’s the bottom line that counts and not all those little spurs that can puncture you at times, it’ll get you focusing on forces that can bring you success. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — One of your peers might try to have you believe otherwise, but those in authority do in fact hold you in high regard. Don’t listen to anyone who doesn’t want to know the truth. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you are not demanding or critical of others, you will outpoll everyone in the proverbial popularity contest. Assume a friendly, enthusiastic attitude with all. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Action you precipitate could promote something beneficial for you and all those with whom you’re involved. By putting the needs of others first, you’ll come out ahead as well. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — It’s up to you to think positively and to establish desirable objectives for yourself. You have plenty of reasons to view life optimistically at this time. Gemini (May 21-June 20) —If you devote your attention and efforts on ways to make money, you could do very well for yourself. Get an early start, lay out a solid game plan and stick to it. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — There is only one thing that you should keep uppermost in your mind, and that is to know that you can successfully manage anything you put your mind to. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — This is one of those days where it might appear to be darker than usual before the metaphorical dawn breaks. Don’t lose faith; things will work out well. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Something quite personal that isn’t of a material nature has an excellent chance of working out to your satisfaction. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — People with whom you’ll be involved are likely to provide a mix of both good and bad episodes, which overall will work out quite favorably for you in both personal and career-related areas. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Lady Luck is likely to start cozying up to you at this point in time, and that’s why you may now begin to find far fewer obstacles blocking your path. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It’s best not to discuss a disturbing matter that another person is grappling with. You could cause additional problems for the party in question.

TWEEN 12 & 20

BY DR. ROBERT WALLACE • NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION Dr. Wallace: I hate athletics. First of all, I’m not the athletic type. There are those who know me and consider me to be a nerd. But I’m a very intelligent nerd. I’m in the 11th grade and so far I’m a straight-A student, and my plan is to graduate with a straight-A average and then graduate from an elite Ivy League school such as Harvard or Yale. It really bugs me that at my high school the athletes get all the glory and the nerds are laughed at. When I’m making a million dollars a year, most of the school jocks will be working for minimum wage or, if they’re lucky, working at an auto repair shop. That goes for the snobby cheerleaders, too. They will marry the jocks and live in a rental house taking care of four plump kids. As for me, my wife and I will be living in a penthouse, driving Mercedes Benz cars and dining at expensive restaurants. It could be that one of our school athletes might even be our waiter. He would be lucky. I would be a good tipper. Down with athletes, and three cheers for us nerds! Someday we will be running the country! — Nerd, Nashua, N.H. Nerd: I’m impressed with your goals to graduate from high school with straight A’s (valedictorian, no doubt), receive your degree from Harvard or Yale and then become a millionaire. These are lofty goals, and I wish you well on your journey toward them. But I’m sorry you are so fueled by revenge and seem to be as concerned about other people’s failures as your own successes. This means you’ll never be happy simply with your own accomplishments. I’m equally sorry that you harbor such negative feelings about sports. This is your loss. While academics should never be compromised for athletics, the two can coexist in harmony. Remember, both Harvard and Yale are members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Both of these academically prodigious schools field men’s teams in football, basketball, baseball, track and field, and host many other sports. The women’s programs provide a full schedule of sports, including basketball, softball, field hockey, tennis and swimming. Providing students with an excellent academic program is a school’s prime function, but extracurricular programs, including athletics, music and drama, provide an outlet for the pressures of the classroom and keep student lives in balance. Even if you don’t participate, watching athletic events can be an enjoyable recreation. Try it! •

Are young women who behave that way really the kind of people you would like to be lifelong friends? If not, then pass on that sorority! Dear Abby: My son is chronologically 12 and the size of an adult, but emotionally he is age 5. He’s a moderately functioning child with autism, ADHD and behavioral issues. Please let people know that just because they can’t see a disability does not mean there isn’t one. I often get dirty looks and rude comments, and I am extremely frustrated with it. Being nice or ignoring it does no good. I know my son’s behavior can be childish, rude or inappropriate at times. I have been fighting this battle every day since he was 2. I have seen every doctor and therapist available and exhausted every resource I could find, and now we have either aged out or my son isn’t “bad enough” to be

eligible. However, he is still difficult to handle, and I still need to buy groceries and run errands. Sometimes that parent you are giving the dirty looks to is near the end of her rope and could use a little compassion or at least silence from the peanut gallery. What you see isn’t always what you get. — Struggling Mom in Long Beach, Miss. Dear Struggling Mom: Please accept my sympathy. As you and other parents of children with disabilities deal with the realities of daily living, the last thing you (or they) need is criticism from strangers. If someone makes a comment or gives you a look, you should say, “My son can’t help himself; he’s autistic.” It’s the truth.

Calcium needed to build strong bones for lifetime Dear Doctor K: I have two daughters, ages 8 and 12. They both claim they’re “too old” to drink milk. How can I make sure they get enough calcium? Dear Reader: You’re right to be concerned. Unfortunately, many children don’t get enough calcium, and they need it to build strong bones and teeth. As your kids grow, they are also growing the bones they will have for the rest of their lives. How strong those bones are by the time they become adults will strongly affect their risk for developing thin bones (osteoporosis) later in life, which can lead to fractures. Most of the bone growth occurs in the teenage years, but getting enough calcium is important for younger kids, too. Getting enough calcium is not the only important thing in developing strong bones. So is regular exercise. Exercise that puts weight on the bones, like walking, running and hiking, is especially important. How much calcium should your daughters be getting? For your 8-year-old, aim for 1,000 milligrams (mg) of calcium per day. Your 12-year-old should be getting more, about 1,300 mg of calcium per day. The best sources of calcium are calcium-rich foods, such as dairy products. Even if your daughters refuse to budge on drinking milk, there are plenty of other options. Cheese and yogurt are good sources of calcium. If they like yogurt, go for the lowfat or nonfat kind. Although they have less fat, they have as much calcium. There’s also plenty of calcium in many nondairy foods such as sardines and almonds. Tofu, beans and oranges are good sources of calcium. So are leafy green vegetables such as kale, collard greens, spinach and broccoli. But it takes several cups a day of these vegetables to supply as much calcium as dairy foods. For some kids, that’s a stretch. You’ll also find plenty of “calcium fortified” foods in the grocery store. These may include some brands of juice, cereal and bread. To get enough calcium, your kids also should avoid certain foods and beverages that interfere with calcium absorption. Caffeine (found in coffee, tea and sodas), phosphorous (in meat and sodas/soft drinks) and sodium (salt) are unhealthy for bones. Teach your daughters to limit these foods. Teach also by example. If your daughters see you drinking lowfat milk, how can they say that they’re “too old” to drink it? With careful planning, most children can easily get enough calcium in their daily diets.

ASK DOCTOR K Dr. Anthony L.

Komaroff

Think of new ways to incorporate calcium-rich foods into family meals. Make a stir-fry using tofu that’s been processed with calcium, or sprinkle some lowfat shredded cheese on salads. •
