The Alcorn School District was honored this week with a special award from the Missis-sippi School Boards Associa-tion.
The district was recognized
during the awards ceremony in Jackson for having all schools within the district score above a “C” rating on the recently released state accountability model.
Superintendent Gina Rog-ers Smith told board members
about the award during the dis-trict’s regular board meeting this week.
“I am personally thrilled with the performance of everyone in the district,” said Smith. “We have not received this award in a very long time. I know our
teachers, staff and students have all worked really hard to bring the scores up as much as possible.”
School board member Russ Nash was in Jackson with Smith to accept the award.
“This is really great for our
district,” said Nash. “I am hon-ored to be a part of it.”
The district is one of only 33 school districts to receive the award.
There are 150 school districts

One month can forever change the life of a child.
That’s the idea behind the second annual 30/30 Read-ing Challenge, sponsored by a group of community organiza-tions dedicated to encouraging children to read.
The challenge asks parents to spend 30 minutes each day reading to and with their chil-dren for the 30 days of Novem-ber with the goal of creating a positive habit that will last long after the month is over.
The effort is a partnership between the Lighthouse Foun-dation, Project Attention, the
Boys and Girls Club of Corinth, Crosswind Ministries Home-work Club, the Corinth Sport-splex, Corinth Middle School and Corinth Elementary School.
Lighthouse Foundation Ex-ecutive Director Gary Caveness said he sees the value of read-ing every day in the lives of the children who come through the foundation’s programs.
Young people who read have a better chance of becoming adults who succeed, he ex-plained.
He said one of the common traits among the most success-ful people he knows is that they are all avid readers. Reading is
fundamental to success in all areas of school and life.
“It opens up so many doors,” he said.
Under a new state law all Mississippi third-graders must be reading on grade level by the end of their third-grade year or they will be held back no matter what their other grades may be, making it more essential than ever for students to get a good start at reading.
Those who complete the challenge will be recognized for their efforts during halftime of the fi nal game of the Lighthouse Foundation Classic basketball tournament on Saturday, Nov. 29 at Corinth High School.

Selected songs will include: Broadway show tunes, a patriotic medley of songs by George M. Co-han, some Ragtime music that be-came a well-known movie theme and a few surprises from the talent-
ed members and guest performers.Dr. Terry McRoberts, Professor
of Music at Union University, will be among the guest performers.
Sara Ellington on piano and Bobbi Campbell on fl ute will per-form “Lord of the Dance”, a hymn written in 1963 by English song-writer Sydney Carter to the tune of the American Shaker song, “Simple Gifts” with setting by Joel Raney.
Both the words and melody of “Simple Gifts” were composed by Elder Joseph Brackett Jr. in Alfred, Maine in 1848. Originally written as a religious dance song for use in their worship, the words”To turn, turn will be our delight” and “Till by turning, turning” are dance instruc-tions.

Today is Friday, Nov. 14, the 318th day of 2014. There are 47 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlightsin History:
On Nov. 14, 1889, inspired by the Jules Verne novel “Around the World in Eighty Days,” New York World reporter Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Co-chrane) set out to make the trip in less time than the fictional Phileas Fogg. (She completed the journey in 72 days.) Jawarharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of India, was born.
On this date:
In 1851, Herman Mel-ville’s novel “Moby-Dick; Or, The Whale” was first published in the United States.
In 1910, Eugene B. Ely became the first aviator to take off from a ship as his Curtiss pusher rolled off a slop-ing platform on the deck of the scout cruiser USS Birmingham off Hampton Roads, Virginia.
In 1922, the British Broadcasting Co. began its domestic radio ser-vice.
In 1940, during World War II, German planes destroyed most of the English town of Coventry.
In 1944, Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra recorded “Opus No. 1” for RCA Victor.

In 1969, Apollo 12 blasted off for the moon.
In 1970, a chartered Southern Airways DC-9 crashed while trying to land in West Virginia, killing all 75 people on board, including the Mar-shall University football team and its coaching staff.
In 1972, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed above 1,000 for the first time, ending the day at 1,003.16.
In 1986, the Securities and Exchange Commis-sion imposed a $100 million penalty against inside-trader Ivan F. Boesky and barred him from working again in the securities industry.
In 1990, it was re-vealed that the pop duo Milli Vanilli (Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan) had done none of the singing on their Grammy-winning debut album “Girl You Know It’s True.”
In 1997, a jury in Fair-fax, Virginia, decided that Pakistani national Aimal Khan Kasi should get the death penalty for gunning down two CIA employees outside agency headquarters. Five years later on this date, Aimal Khan Kasi was executed.

UNA hosts Teacher Recruitment Day
FLORENCE, Ala. — Members of the University of North Ala-bama’s Office of Career Plan-ning and Development will soon be welcoming area educators to UNA’s campus for “K-12 Teacher Recruitment Day.” This new event is designed to assist local and regional school systems with recruiting new graduates for their teaching positions
The event will take place at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 18 at UNA’s East Campus on Tune Avenue in Florence. The event is free to area schools, but organizers ask that employers register so that the appropriate accommodations can be made.
Melissa Medlin, director of the Office of Career Planning and Development at UNA, said the event illustrates UNA’s commitment to helping stu-dents succeed.
“We want to expose our students to the great opportu-nities that are out there and we want employers to see the great caliber of students that UNA has to offer.”
Medlin said that since the event is a networking oppor-tunity rather than an actual interview, it provides both par-ties with a “non-threatening or
stressful environment.”(For more information:

The Supreme Court decision to hear chal-lenges to the legality of giving subsidies to families and individuals who signed up for Obamacare through federal exchanges could lead to the de facto repeal of the program. And, with the Republican victory in the mid-term elections, the next step could be the pas-sage of the Republican version of Obamacare – an excellent piece of legislation that the country will happily accept.
The Republican alternative to Obamacare, passed by the House but, obviously, never brought up for a vote in the Democratic Sen-ate, provides tax credit subsidies for all who need them to buy health insurance and incor-porates the basic consumer protections em-bedded in the Affordable Care Act. Insurers cannot discriminate based on pre-existing conditions under the GOP bill nor can they either terminate coverage or raise rates when their customers become ill.
But the Republican alternative eliminates the coercive aspects of Obamacare. Nobody has to buy insurance nor does any employer have to offer it. And those who do purchase insurance can get as much or as little cover-age as they want. One size will no longer at-tempt to fi t all.
A particularly important provision of the bill extends Medicare coverage to those who are sickest with the highest medical bills, so the government pays for all their costs.
Would Obama veto the Republican bill?Much as his veto pen will be itching to do
so, he really won’t be able to use it. Once Obamacare subsidies are struck down by the Supreme Court, seven million or more Amer-icans will be out of health insurance entirely. Most will have once had adequate policies for which they paid themselves, only to fi nd that Washington forced the cancellation of their policies and made them buy insurance on the federal exchanges. Having gotten more cov-erage, at a higher cost, than they could either afford or need, they became dependent on the federal subsidies the court will have just thrown out.
Obama and the Republican Congress will have a moral and political imperative to re-store their coverage. They and most of Amer-ica will approve of the Republican alternative and Obama will be unable to veto it with the presidential elections looming.
So the Obamacare saga will have had a happy ending with a good bill fi lling a gap in our health care coverage. And all the wran-gling will seem to have been so unnecessary.

A verse to share
STARKVILLE — The news that a federal grand jury had indicted former Mississippi Department of Corrections Commissioner Chris Epps and former Rankin County School Board president and state legislator Cecil McCro-ry on 49 counts related to a kickback scheme should not have stunned me in the manner that it did.
I’ve known Chris Epps since his days as a line cor-rectional offi cer at Parch-man – more than three de-cades ago – and I counted him a friend and I admired him as a public offi cial who did a diffi cult job and did it well. But it appears that like many of Epps’ friends, I was blinded by his affable man-ner and humble demeanor.
While I never thought Epps would end up in this pickle, I have long known of the connection between corruption and the state’s prison system. Prisons in Mississippi have long been a breeding ground for cor-ruption and not, as some would surmise, just among the inmates.
First there was the convict labor scandals. After slav-ery ended in the South and Reconstruction began, the region’s sordid history of
convict leas-ing was just coming into full swing. Under the system, pri-vate parties were able to “lease” con-victs from the state for
hard labor in private en-terprise – in other words, slavery as punishment for a crime.
It was a source of state revenue and a source of cheap labor. Because of those two facts, the convict leasing system was also a source of untold corruption.
What if there wasn’t enough convict labor to meet the demand from the private sector? Not to wor-ry; an examination of the state’s prison population growth shows that in the decade from 1870 to 1880, the state’s prison popula-tion quadrupled.
Until federal court inter-vention, the Parchman farm was operated as a state-owned plantation farming operation with a strong profi t motive. The bottom line-making a profi t for the state on the cotton, row crop and livestock harvests were
encouraged-observance of modern trends in penology were not.
For those prisoners who would not toe the line, there was the strap called “Black Annie”. For the worst among them, there was the Mississippi gas chamber.
In his 1988 book “All Rise: Memoirs of a Missis-sippi Federal Judge,” the late U.S. District Judge Wil-liam C. Keady recounted his long involvement in efforts to reform the Mississippi prison system from the measured view of a veteran federal judge.
“The court found that the physical facilities were in such condition as to be unfi t for human habitation, that racial discrimination was practiced by the penal au-thorities in the assignment of inmates, that the medical staff and hospital facilities available to penitentiary inmates were far less than minimal, and that the in-mates, under the protection of few free-world person-nel, had to work under guns placed in the hands of other inmates who were trust-ies. Many evils in the trusty system were documented by the evidence. The court found that a complete lack
of proper disciplinary rules for inmates regarding pris-on misconduct existed, and that a proper system of pun-ishment and hearing proce-dures did not exist.”
As recently as 2011, I’ve written about the success that state legislators have had in the management of the state’s sentencing laws and the state’s parole sys-tem. I praised Epps’ role in getting a handle on the state’s exploding prison population.
Much has changed since Keady reformed Missis-sippi’s prison system, but the potential for some of the same corruption that existed back in the days of convict labor abuse obvi-ously still exists. The indict-ments of Epps and McCrory should likewise generate additional scrutiny of pri-vate prisons in the state.
As for Epps, the parallels between the fi ction of the fi lm “Shawshank Redemp-tion” and the reality the ca-reer corrections offi cial now faces are all too real and all too disturbing.

Epps scandal recalls bad old days in prison system
We have all heard it said many times that America is a land of immigrants, some voluntary and some invol-untary, but immigrants nev-ertheless. We have plenty of space in our country, but in-suffi cient resources to sup-port everyone who wants to come here. When we see innocent children used as political pawns, it still tugs at our heartstrings, which is the desired intent. The real question is: What are we going to do about it? Im-migration reform has been a very tough issue, as well as a political football, and it has produced governmental stalemates and no useful so-lutions for decades.
President Obama’s deci-sion to act unilaterally out-side of Congress is not the answer. Instead, Congress must use its lawmaking powers to fi x a system that is so broken that only a legisla-tive solution can fi x it. The lack of policy progress has been incredibly frustrating, and the humanitarian bor-der crisis this summer only highlighted how badly we need a system that deals ef-fi ciently and effectively with both illegal and legal immi-gration.
It is time for Congress to act and to do so in a bipar-tisan fashion that engenders the confi dence of the Ameri-can people. There are many common-sense prescrip-
tions within reach of our government. It is time to seize them.
To begin to solve this p r o b l e m , we must fi rst have some un-derstanding
of why it exists. Despite all of its problems, America is still the place of dreams. As such, it is small wonder that so many from other nations would like to live here.
Right now, we have very porous borders and unen-thusiastic and inconsistent enforcement of immigra-tion laws. Further incentives for illegal immigration are easy enrollment in public schools, easy employment for those willing to take jobs others don’t want, easy ac-cess to health care and easy acquisition of public support through welfare programs. Yet this population cannot participate in the formal workforce, which means they cannot contribute fully to their local economies.
Any discussion of im-migration reform should include bipartisan solu-tions that both address the undocumented population here today and discourage illegal immigration going forward. If these issues are not addressed, solutions will
fall short. A national guest-worker
program makes sense and seems to work well in Cana-da. Noncitizens would have to apply for a guest-worker permit and have a guar-anteed job awaiting them. Taxes would be paid at a rate commensurate with other U.S. workers, and special visas would allow for easy entry and egress across bor-ders. Guest-worker status would be granted to individ-uals and not to groups.
People already here ille-gally could apply for guest-worker status from outside of the country. This means they would have to leave fi rst. They should in no way be rewarded for having bro-ken our laws, but if they are wise, they will arrange with their employer before they leave to immediately offer them a legal job as soon as their application is received. When they return, they still would not be U.S. citizens, but they would be legal, and they would be paying taxes. Only jobs that are vacant as a result of a lack of interest by American citizens should be eligible for the guest-worker program.
In return for greater cer-tainty on immigration, em-ployers must bear some responsibility for making sure that no illegal immi-grants are hired. Employers who break the rules should
receive swift, severe and consistent punishment that constitutes a real deterrent, not mere inconvenience.
All of this is irrelevant un-less we have secure borders. There is much that can be learned from security per-sonnel in prisons and other secured facilities, and there is a great deal of technol-ogy that can be employed to achieve secure borders. It is a matter of will.
As long as we reward people who break laws, they will continue to break laws. We do need a continual fl ow of immigrants, but choos-ers need not be beggars. We make decisions based on our needs. The point is this: We must create a system that disincentivizes illegal im-migration and upholds the rule of law while providing us with a steady stream of immigrants from other na-tions who will strengthen our society. Let’s solve the problem and stop playing political football.

Adoption scheduled for rescued dogs
GULFPORT — Dozens of dogs rescued from puppy mills in North Mississippi will be able for adoption Friday at the Humane Society of South Mississippi in Gulfport.
About 123 small-breed dogs were rescued two weeks ago in Corinth.
WLOX-TV in Biloxi re-ports about 70 dogs will be available for adoption Friday on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Humane Society of-ficials say the dogs are mostly the breeding adults, ranging in age from eight months to 8-years-old.
Humane Society Op-erations Director Tracy Reis says a $175 fee will cover spay/neuter surgery, vaccination and rabies vaccine, microchip and ID tag, 30 days of pet health insurance, a free vet visit, heartworm tests, one bag of dog food and 10 percent off from the shelter’s store.
Guilty plea entered in federal fund theft
JACKSON — The for-mer executive director of the Mississippi Vol-unteer Lawyers Project has pleaded guilty to the theft of federal funds.
Prospectors say 47-year-old Shirley Mae Williams of Jackson en-tered the plea Wednes-day in U.S. District Court in Jackson.
A criminal information alleges that from January 2009 through December 2012, Williams used less $1,000 in federal funds from the organiza-tion to pay for a portion of her family’s cellular phone expenses and health club membership.
The organization re-
ceived grants from the federal Legal Services Corporation as a sub-grantee of both North Mississippi Rural Legal Services and Mississippi Center for Legal Ser-vices.
Williams will be sen-tenced Jan. 21. She fac-es a maximum penalty of one year in prison and a $100,000.00 fine.
Weather-related crash claims 2 lives
RED BANKS — The Highway Patrol says two people have died in a weather-related accident in Marshall County in north Mississippi.
The patrol says the ac-cident occurred Thursday on U.S. Highway 78 near Red Banks, northwest of Holly Springs. The patrol says icy conditions led to the wreck. Cold weather has moved into the re-gion this week, with icy precipitation scattered across North Missis-sippi.
The patrol says a vehicle slid on the ice, crossed into the oppo-site lanes and hit anoth-er vehicle head on. The driver of the car that lost control was seriously in-
jured, while the two peo-ple in the other vehicle died at the scene.
The victims’ identities have not been released.
Wicker to lead GOP Senate fundraising
JACKSON — Missis-sippi’s Roger Wicker has been chosen as chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
In that role, he will help raise campaign cash for his party’s can-didates running for the Senate across the nation in 2016.
Wicker’s Republican Senate colleagues chose him for their sixth-highest leadership post Thursday.
He says in a statement that he intends to roll up his sleeves and make sure his party has the money it needs to pre-serve the majority it won this year.
Mississippi’s senior senator, Thad Cochran just won a seventh term. He says in a state-ment that Wicker has the chance “to extend thoughtful Republican governance of the United State Senate.”

Smithsonian unveils $2 billion face-lift
WASHINGTON — The Smithsonian unveiled a plan Thursday to give museums and gardens along the south side of Washington’s National Mall a $2 billion face-lift, creating more welcom-ing entrances, improving connections between the museums and refur-bishing the iconic Smith-sonian Castle.
The plans would be paid for with a mix of federal and private money and implement-ed over 10 to 20 years. Construction won’t likely start for five to seven years. At the plan’s heart are improvements to the first Smithsonian building, the Smith-sonian Castle, which opened in 1855.
The building now houses an information center and administra-tive offices as well as the tomb of James Smithson, the English scientist whose half-million dollar gift got the institution started under his name.
Under the master plan, the Smithsonian Castle would get two underground levels including a cafe and store. And its entrance hall, chopped up over years, would be re-turned to one grand space.
Feds: Cheap gas to stay for some time
NEW YORK — Those low gas prices on sta-tion signs aren’t going away soon, the govern-ment says.
In a dramatic shift from previous fore-casts, the Energy Department predicted Wednesday that the av-erage price of gasoline
in the U.S. will be $2.94 a gallon in 2015. That is a 44-cent drop from an outlook issued just a month ago.
If the sharply lower estimate holds true, U.S. consumers will save $61 billion on gas compared with this year.
Rising oil production, particularly in the U.S., and weak spots in the global economy have led to a sharp reduc-tion in oil prices over the past four months. Not seeing much of a change ahead, the gov-ernment cut its forecast for global oil prices next year by $18 a barrel to $83.
As a result, U.S. driv-ers will pay on average 45 cents less for a gallon of gas next year compared to this year. Based on expected gasoline consumption, that’s a savings of $60.9 billion.
Lawmakers to strip ex-Nazis of benefits
WASHINGTON — A bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation Thursday to strip suspected Nazi war criminals of their Social Security ben-efits, insisting American taxpayers should not be underwriting the retire-ment of anyone who participated in the Third Reich’s atrocities.
The Nazi Social Security Benefits Ter-mination Act comes in response to an Associ-ated Press investigation published in October that revealed millions of dollars in benefits have been paid to dozens of former Nazis who were forced out of the United States. At least four are alive, living in Europe on U.S. Social Security.
The legislation would
end benefits for Nazi suspects who have lost their American citi-zenship, a step called denaturalization. U.S. law currently requires a higher threshold — a final order of deporta-tion — before benefits can be terminated. A companion bill to close this so-called loophole was introduced in the Senate.
Mike Long, a spokes-man for House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, said “we’re eager to get this done” during the lame-duck session that will last until a new Congress begins in late January.
Privacy protections unite automakers
WASHINGTON — Nineteen automakers accounting for most of the passenger cars and trucks sold in the U.S. have signed onto a set of principles they say will protect motorists’ privacy in an era when computerized cars pass along more information about their drivers than many motorists realize.
The principles were delivered in a letter Wednesday to the Fed-eral Trade Commission, which has the authority to force corporations to live up to their promises to consumers. Industry officials say they want to assure their custom-ers that the information that their cars stream back to automakers or that is downloaded from the vehicle’s computers won’t be handed over to authorities without a court order, sold to insurance companies or used to bombard them with ads for pizza parlors, gas stations or other businesses they drive past, without their permission.

NEW YORK — Two win-dow washers left dangling from the nation’s tallest skyscraper, 1 World Trade Center, were “doing well” after their release from a hospital, their employer said.
Investigators were look-ing into why a cable sud-denly developed slack, leaving the workers stuck 68 stories above the street Wednesday afternoon. The two held onto the teetering platform for two agonizing hours, and one called his wife, fearful that it might be his last oppor-tunity to speak to her.
Firefi ghters used dia-mond cutters to saw through a double-layered window and pulled the men to safety.
The dramatic rescue, coming a little more than a week after the building offi cially opened, was fol-lowed by throngs of New Yorkers watching from
the ground and many more around the world watching on live TV.
The window washers, Juan Lizama and Juan Lopez, were working on the south side of the lower Manhattan building when one of the platform’s four cables abruptly gave way, Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said. The open-topped platform tilted sharply and swayed slightly between the 68th and 69th fl oors, he said.
“It suddenly went from horizontal to nearly verti-cal,” Nigro said.
Offi cials haven’t deter-mined what caused the cable problem.
It was unclear whether anything about the design of the 1,776-foot, 104-sto-ry skyscraper complicates working on the window washing scaffolds, which went into service in June.
A fi re department pho-to shot from inside the building shows the scaf-fold platform hanging
precipitously, with the Statue of Liberty appear-ing tiny in the distance.
About 100 fi refi ghters rushed to the scene, some lowering ropes from the roof so the workers could secure themselves and providing a two-way radio to communicate, Nigro said. The workers, who have more than 20 years of experience between them, were harnessed to the platform, and the building’s owner said they had all the requisite safety gear and training.
After shattering the window glass, fi refi ght-ers began inching another scaffold down the build-ing as a backup rescue plan. But the workers were brought to safety through the roughly 4-by-8-foot window hole.
“It was a fairly straight-forward operation,” said Battalion Chief Joseph Jardin, who oversees the fi re department’s special operations.
Offi cials stressed that fi refi ghters had trained for various emergencies at the tower, which is the centerpiece of the rebuilt World Trade Center.

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE:
Edited by Rich Norris and Joyce Nichols Lewis
Dear Annie: Our neigh-bor “Ellen” is having an 80th birthday party for her husband. She has invited about 40 people, includ-ing my husband and me and the “Smiths,” another couple who are neighbors. We’ve had many disagree-ments in the past where the Smiths have yelled and sworn at us.
Ellen told me we could come over to her home for the party anytime, but had to leave by 2:00 because the Smiths would be com-ing over then. Mr. Smith plays guitar and will be en-tertaining.
Is it right for her to ask us to leave? We are mature and reasonable people, and we could certainly leave on our own if we felt the need.
What should we do? What do you think of such an invite? Should we go? — Unwanted Friends
Dear Friends: What nerve. Ellen was rude to tell you that you have to leave the party when the Smiths ar-rive. Does she perhaps think they will cause a scene? Did they ask that you not be there? No guest should be telling the hosts whom to invite. Ellen should have invited both of you, without restric-tions, and let the chips fall. It would show tremendous grace on your part to show up at this party.
Dear Annie: We are writ-ing to ask what we can do about the way our son’s family talks. Whenever we phone, we can hear them in the background yelling about something and using the F-word rather liberally. Even our high-school-age grandson speaks the same way.
We’ve asked our son and his wife whether they try to correct the kids, and he says everybody talks this way and to get used to it. How do we speak up and let them know we have had enough of their toilet mouths? — Ohio
Dear Ohio: What they do in their own home is not your busi-ness, even if you can hear them in the back-ground when you call. And if Mom and Dad have potty mouths, it is expected that their children will, as well. They don’t realize the handicap they are giv-ing their kids by not teaching them how to control their language. All you can do is ask, as a sign of respect, that they not use such vul-garities when speak-ing directly to you. We hope they can manage
at least that much.Dear Annie: This is in
response to the letter from “Stressed and Nervous,” the stepmother who has no relationship with her adult stepchildren. Here is the fl ip side:
Our stepmother, a lovely woman, came into our family after my siblings and I were grown. While we never had a close bond, we included her in all of our life events. Most im-portantly, our children considered her to be their grandmother.
When Dad died, we all mourned together. For the next couple of years, we regularly invited “Grand-ma” to all family events. However, she soon began saying it was inconve-nient for her to come and would rebuff any attempt we made to make it easier, such as picking her up or having her stay with us.
She hasn’t invited her grandchildren over since my father died.
At fi rst, our children were hurt, but fi ve years later, they no longer care. I still call several times a year, but it’s like dropping a coin down a well. She has a large extended family of her own, and when I call them to ask whether she’s OK, they say I need not worry.
It’s sad she has distanced herself. She is part of 20 years of family memories. — Dismissed Stepdaughter

Crossroads Magazine Holiday Edition coming in the Sunday, Nov. 30 newspaper edition.
Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian
D E A R A B B Y : Thanksgiv-ing is fast approaching and I would like to share some advice with your readers from s o m e o n e who has vol-unteered in shelters for
many years.1. Please do NOT volunteer
on Thanksgiving. It’s the day most people volunteer, and there are always more volun-teers than homeless people.
2. If you want to make dona-tions, please drop them off a few days before or a few days after. It will allow the shelter time to store all the donations and to take an inventory of what is still needed.
3. Shelters need not only food, but also paper goods such as plates, napkins, toilet paper and plastic utensils.
4. Because refrigerator space is limited, don’t bring anything that must be refrigerated.
5. Most shelters pay rent, wa-ter, electric and telephone bills and lease offi ce equipment, etc. A check or cash donation is ide-al. It’s also tax deductible.
If in doubt, call ahead (at least a week in advance) and
ask what is needed. -- YEAR-ROUND VOLUNTEER
DEAR VOLUNTEER: Kudos to you for so generously giving your time to help others who are in need.
I’m sure my readers will ap-preciate your insight.
Planning ahead and knowing what is needed make perfect sense.
DEAR ABBY: Our son and daughter-in-law were married last year at a courthouse.
They are now planning a “real” wedding.
Our daughter-in-law thinks we should pay for the rehearsal din-ner, and my husband thinks he isn’t required to.
Please help with this dilemma. Are we expected to pay for a re-hearsal dinner since they have been married a year already? -- NEW MOTHER-IN-LAW IN OHIO
DEAR MOTHER-IN-LAW: Celebrations of this kind are GIFTS. Regardless of what your daughter-in-law is saying, they are not mandatory. While she may expect you to pay for the dinner, no rule of etiquette requires you to do it. Please tell your husband I said to hang onto his
DEAR ABBY: I’m writing you on behalf of a friend.
No matter where her hus-
band is -- at home, at a friend’s, walking into a store or walk-ing around town -- he’s always dropping his pants to tuck in his shirt.
One of these days someone is going to think he’s fl ashing and have him arrested.
His wife is afraid it will happen.My friend has made com-
ments to him about it, but he still continues.
Please give me some ad-vice because someone else may have the same problem, and it may save another family from this embarrassment. -- A FRIEND IN ST. PAUL
DEAR FRIEND: Your friend’s concerns are legitimate.
A man dropping his pants in a public place is, to say the least, attention-getting. If his concern is really that his shirts creep up, suggest that your friend talk to a tailor -- many cleaners have them in their shops -- about how to prevent the problem from happening.
During a Minnesota winter, she could save him from catch-ing pneumonia from the bottom up.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). After walking around inside your own vessel for a lifetime, it’s easy to forget that the others haven’t seen or done or felt all that you have. Today’s conver-sation will clear that up.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You always defend the inno-cent, but what if you defended the so-called guilty instead? How would you see the situation differently? There’s a stalemate going on that you can break by playing devil’s advocate.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Acceptance is the way to peace. It won’t be easy today, but you can warm up to it. What if you agreed to accept that unaccept-able thing for three minutes? Then six. Then 12...
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Feelings of rejection can be so potentially painful that many people would rather become angry than endure even the slightest rejection. You’re tough-er than that, and it’s why you make a sale today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You long to work on your own proj-ects, but because you’re such a good friend, you keep getting roped into other people’s. Say “no.” Be a good friend to your-self instead. You’re shortchang-ing your talent.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). All you can control is the action you take; nothing after that. Not oth-er people’s perception of you, not their immediate reactions, not their subsequent choices. So act, and let it go.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). New information nullifi es the plan. You had a feeling some-thing was amiss with that plan anyway. In fact, you’re probably excited that it’s time to create a more relevant strategy.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). People want you in their drama. There’s one person in particular who is practically casting you in it, Hollywood-style. Don’t worry. All you have to do is turn down the role. A-listers do it all the time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Social lulls are to be ex-pected. Make the most of them by using them as an opportunity to bring the attention around to the other person’s favorite subject or expertise. The other person’s comfort will be to your benefi t.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When nothing seems to be working on its own, you see it as an invitation to make it work by nudging it, winding it up or throwing your full weight behind it. Success!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a sense for the unspoken needs of others. When you address these in un-expected ways and without call-ing direct attention to the needs, they fi nd you super-cool.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t like it when people push you to agree with them, buy from them or tend to them. You’ll do that kind of thing when and if you want to. They would be wise to wait until you want to.
Planning ahead is best advice for Thanksgiving volunteers
Daily Corinthian • Friday, November 14, 2014 • 11A
WASHINGTON — Sen. Mitch McConnell of Ken-tucky won election by fellow Republicans on Thursday to become Sen-ate majority leader when the new Congress con-venes in January, fulfi ll-ing a long-held ambition.
A Senate Republican of-fi cial said McConnell, 72 was chosen by acclama-tion at a closed-door meet-ing of the rank and fi le.
As majority leader, Mc-Connell will set the Sen-ate’s agenda. Along with House Speaker John Boehner, he will decide what legislation is sent to the White House in the fi -nal two years of President Barack Obama’s term.
McConnell was elected to a sixth Senate term last week in elections in which Republicans gained a ma-jority for the fi rst time in eight years.
He will formally as-sume his duties as ma-jority leader in January. Democrats have assailed him in recent campaigns as a guardian of gridlock for his opposition to near-ly all of President Barack Obama’s initiatives. At the same time, decorations in his offi ce in the Capitol include two paintings and a bust of Henry Clay, a 19th century Kentuckian known as the Great Com-promiser who favored government development of roads and bridges in a young America.
Senate Republicans had only one contested leadership race, and se-lected Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi to chair the party’s campaign com-mittee for the 2016 elec-tions. He defeated Sen. Dean Heller of Nevada.
Neither Republican leader faced public oppo-sition on the eve of Thurs-day’s party elections in closed door meetings. If the sessions were celebra-tory occasions for Repub-licans, they were less than that for Democrats, who took a pounding in the Nov. 4 midterm elections.
After eight years in the minority, Senate Repub-licans picked up at least eight seats from Demo-crats and are still hoping for a ninth in a Louisiana runoff set for Dec. 6.
The party also padded its majority in the House, where a handful of races remain unresolved. Re-publicans are on track to equal or eclipse the 246 they won in 1946, a fi g-ure that stands as a post-World War II high.
Despite sizable elec-tion losses, Democrats appeared ready to hand their own leaders anoth-er two years at the helm, postponing a generation-al change that appears not far in the future.
Sen. Harry Reid of Ne-vada, a few weeks shy of his 75th birthday, won re-election as the leader of Senate Democrats to become minority leader in the new Congress. At least four Democrats voted against him: Sens. Claire McCaskill of Missouri, Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Mark Warner of Virginia, who had a scare last week before narrowly winning a second term.
McCaskill faulted Reid for failing to open up fl oor debates and staging votes that were destined to fail but win political points.
Reid announced that Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, a favorite of liberals, would join his leadership team, along with Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. Sen. John Tester, a second-term moderate from Montana, became head of the par-ty’s campaign organiza-tion for 2016.
Senate majority leader chosen

The City of Corinth has an opportunity that very few cities in the country have, high speed Broadband Technology. To make this technology a reality we need your help.
First, let me tell you why this kind of technology is vital to Corinth.• Broadband has unmatched reliability and speed, up to 100x faster.• In the past, we focused on building roads, water and utility lines to support
businesses. Now, growing businesses demand broadband.• For Corinth to remain competitive in attracting and growing businesses we need
this essential piece of infrastructure.• These growing businesses will employ our citizens. Without these jobs, the next
generation will simply move away.• Broadband is essential to learning. Without broadband it will be impossible to
maintain the highest quality of education. Students will be able to connect with leading universities from their computer in Corinth.
• Broadband may not mean much to you, but it is tremendously important to our children and grandchildren. Anyone who has seen a six-year-old use a smart phone or tablet understands this is true. Increasingly, people will live and work by connecting through the Internet.
• Passing up on this opportunity will inevitably limit our future prospects.• When Eisenhower built the interstate highway system he was not building for
his generation. Rather, he advocated for the interstate highway system for future generations. This technology is our equivalent to the interstate system.
• Will benefi t us through economic development, education, health care solutions, quality of life, and increased home values.
Before broadband can be built out to our neighborhoods, we need to show that Corinth is behind this advancement. In order to do that, we need homes to pre-register.Pre-registering is not a commitment and there is no obligation to take this service. By Preregistering, you are not switching providers or putting yourself under any contract. PreRegistration is NOT a contract and NOT an obligation. It is a VOTE FOR Corinth.
Households that pre-register will have fi rst option when the service comes. Households thatdon’t pre-register, but choose to get the service after it comes to Corinth may have to pay a $300construction fee, so pre-registering is a great way to save over $300.
We have a deadline of December 31, 2014 to have our votes for Corinth. We can’t do it alone and that’s why we are asking for your support. We will be calling on you. Corinth has the opportunity to continue our legacy as the Crossroads City by becoming the crossroads for technology. As leaders in Corinth, we need to take the Eisenhower perspective that our obligation is to build for generations to come. Please join us in supporting this advancement for our community.
Households in the North* area are asked to pre-register by calling 287-5269, going onlinecspire.com/Corinth, or going by The Alliance, 810 Tate Street. We need you!
Thank you,
*This fi rst phase of this initiative is focusing on households in the “North” Fiberhood. To fi nd out what area your household is in, you can view a map at cspire.com/Corinth

STARKVILLE — Florida State’s Jameis Winston and Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott keep throwing the ball to the other team. Ala-bama players can’t fi gure out how to hang onto the football.
None of the three programs seem able to stop committing football’s cardinal sin: turn-overs.
Yet in a strange twist of statistics this fall, all of them are winning. No. 1 Mississippi State, No. 2 Florida State and No. 4 Alabama are all among the favorites to win a national
championship despite turn-over numbers that would make any coach nauseous.
Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen acknowledges he’s worried his team’s luck could run out soon.
“If we continue down that path,” he said, “they will get us.”
The numbers are ugly: Mis-sissippi State is 84th in the country with 18 turnovers while Florida State is 99th with 19. Alabama has lost a whopping 11 fumbles this sea-son, which ranks 112th.
Tide quarterback Blake Sims has lost three. Not sur-
prisingly, Alabama coach Nick Saban is frustrated.
“We are doing the best we can in every way to try to emphasize the fundamen-tal things we need to do so we have good ball security,” Saban said. “But there have been (fumbles), especially at the end of games, which is critical.”
So how are the Seminoles, Bulldogs and Tide surviving? Really good defense and may-be a little luck.
Alabama is second in the country in scoring defense and fourth in total defense. Mississippi State and Flori-
da State are especially good when it matters — the Bull-dogs rank No. 1 in red zone defense while the Seminoles are 14th.
Still, it’s a dangerous way to live. Alabama (No. 5 CFP) hosts Mississippi State (No. 1 CFP) this weekend in Tus-caloosa, and both teams are aware that an ill-timed turn-over could be the difference.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Shane Ray hit it out of the park.
With less than a minute re-maining in Missouri’s 20-10 win against Kentucky on Nov. 1, the defensive end sacked Wildcats quarterback Patrick Towles on fourth down. Ray then stood up and celebrated with a baseball swing like that of Kansas City Royals fi rst baseman Eric Hosmer.
Tigers coach Gary Pinkel cheered from the sideline as teammates swarmed Ray, a Kansas City native who had recorded his 12th sack of
the season — breaking the school record of 11 1/2 set by both Michael Sam and Aldon Smith.
A few minutes later, Ray found and hugged his tear-ful mother in the stands, the person who persuaded him to take up football in high school.
“It was just a crazy moment because of course my mom knows everything that we’ve been through together,” Ray said. “Just to share that and to see her right after the game, it was kind of like a movie. It was nice.”
With at least four games
left in Missouri’s season, Ray wants to add to his record. He hopes to surpass Willie Evans’ 15 sacks for Missis-sippi State in 2005, the most of any Southeastern Confer-ence player in a season. The late Derrick Thomas owns the all-time league mark with 27 in 1988 for Alabama.
Defensive line coach Craig Kuligowski, who has watched seven of his players earn fi rst-team all-conference honors in the last seven years at Mis-souri (7-2, 4-1 SEC), says Ray is the fastest defensive end he’s had with the Tigers.
“Coming out of high school,
would we have said this guy’s going to break our sack re-cord? Probably not,” Kuli-gowski said. “But since he’s been here, he’s been an unbe-lievable competitor and hard worker, and just a pleasure to have around.”
As for Ray, Pinkel called the player one of the “top fi ve” competitors he’s coached in his 38-year career.
“It’s a great visual aid for our team, because he’s got a tremendous work ethic,” Pin-kel said. “‘Just watch that guy, do what he does and you’ve got a chance to be as good as you can be.’”

AUBURN, Ala. — Au-burn’s defense has been struggling against quarter-backs ranging from a Heis-man Trophy contender to a freshman making his fi rst road start.
Now, the ninth-ranked Tigers face a different but equally formidable chal-lenge: Trying to contain No. 16 Georgia’s star tailback
Todd Gurley on Saturday night. Gurley is returning to play for the fi rst time af-ter a four-game suspension for accepting money for autographs.
“Nobody’s stopped him and some of them slowed him down a little bit,” Au-burn defensive coordinator Ellis Johnson said. “The only guy that stopped him was the autograph guy.”
Jokes aside, the Tigers’ defensive problems be-came serious over the past month.
Auburn’s secondary was picked apart by Texas A&M freshman Kyle Allen in the fi rst half of a 41-38 defeat, and Auburn fared even worse against Mississippi State star Dak Prescott.
Gurley and the Bulldogs represent just the latest challenge.
Auburn opponents have been averaging 487 yards

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — For-get bowl eligibility. Forget the Southeastern Conference’s Eastern Division race. For-get saving coach Will Mus-champ’s job.
The Florida Gators have one thing on their minds heading into Saturday’s game against South Carolina: “Take back the Swamp.”
Florida (5-3, 4-3 SEC) has lost fi ve of its previous seven home games, including both last month. There was the 30-27 defeat against LSU, which included a dropped touch-
down pass in the closing min-utes and an interception in the fi nal seconds that led to the winning fi eld goal.
That was gut-wrenching, but it was easy to handle com-pared to the 42-13 drubbing by Missouri the following week. The Gators allowed just 119 yards but were walloped because of six turnovers that included scores on a fumble and interception. Florida also allowed a kickoff and a punt to be returned for touch-downs.
“The last performance was not up to par by any means,” cornerback Vernon Harg-
reaves III said. “We owe our fans one.”
Maybe even a few.The Gators are 1-3 in
their last four SEC games in Gainesville, with the only win coming in triple overtime against Kentucky.
Muschamp challenged his team to “take back the Swamp” this week and pro-vide a better result against the Gamecocks (4-5, 2-5). Players insist they’re ready to respond, much as they did in beating Georgia and Vander-bilt the last two weeks.
“Last time we were in the Swamp, we didn’t perform
anywhere close to what we can do,” receiver Ahmad Ful-wood said. “The time before that, we let down a lot of peo-ple. This time, we’re trying to just show what we’ve been doing the last two weeks and put it together in the Swamp.”
Florida’s home-fi eld ad-vantage used to be among the best in college football.
The Gators went 68-5 at Florida Field under former coach Steve Spurrier, who nicknamed it “the Swamp” and built the program into one of the league’s most for-

loss against Auburn on Nov. 1, and then the Ti-gers turned around one week later and did the same thing in their loss to Texas A&M.
Winston, last year’s Heisman Trophy winner, has already thrown 11 in-terceptions through nine games for the Seminoles (No. 3 CFP). That’s more than the 10 he threw in 14 games last season.
Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said Win-ston isn’t being careless. He believes opponents are simply more famil-iar with Winston and the Seminoles’ offense.
“His reads are still tak-ing him to the right plac-es,” Fisher said. “I think people adjust and spend more time on us. People spend a lot of time in the offseason. They study what you do. They study your tendencies.”
Stopping turnovers can be a tricky business and as much of a mental task as physical. Prescott, who has thrown fi ve in-terceptions over his past four games, said it’s pos-sible to become too care-ful.
“I’ve been kind of hesi-
tant pulling the trig-ger the last couple of games,” Prescott said. “So I am ready to get back to just playing con-fi dent and letting it go.”
Not all of this year’s national title contend-ers are having turnover troubles.
No. 3 Oregon (No. 2 CFP) ranks third in the country with just seven turnovers. No. 5 TCU (No. 4 CFP) has 11 turn-overs but has also forced 27 for the best turnover margin in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
Those numbers are much more in line with national champions of the recent past. The last seven had 18 or fewer turnovers — a number Mississippi State and Florida State have al-ready reached.
Florida was the last champ with a higher total, committing 24 in 2006.
TCU safety Chris Hackett has fi ve inter-ceptions, which is tied for the Big 12 lead.
“Any time you get a turnover,” he said, “that’s another oppor-tunity for the offense to score.”
TURNOVERS
CONTINUED FROM 12A
and 36 points over the last four games, including losses to the Aggies and Mississippi State.
It’s especially disturb-ing for a defense that ap-peared to have improved dramatically over last season before starting a downward slide, particu-larly against the pass.
Allen threw a 60-yard touchdown pass four plays into the game and a 36-yarder less than a min-ute later after a turnover.
The Tigers did hold Tex-as A&M to two fi eld goals in the second half.
“Getting off to the start, that’s been the thing that we’ve got to fi x,” Tigers coach Gus Malzahn said.
Auburn did get a boost from the return of safe-ty Jermaine Whitehead against the Aggies.
Whitehead had an inter-ception to help out a sec-
ondary that has given up 12 touchdown passes and an average of 320 yards passing during that four-game stretch.
The Tigers have been better against the run with a front line that still lacks a consistent pass rusher. Defensive end Carl Lawson, who was expected to fi ll that role, has been sidelined all season by a knee in-jury.
Gurley was averag-ing 154.6 yards on the ground over the fi rst fi ve games, and fresh-man Nick Chubb put up big numbers in his absence.
They presents a dif-ferent kind of task for a defense that has been so porous against the pass.
Prescott is the only player to rush for 100 yards against the Tigers this season.

midable. The motto “only Gators get out alive” be-came part of the place’s lore.
Florida hasn’t been nearly as dominant since, with Ron Zook (13-6) and Muschamp (17-7) losing more home games in short tenures than Spurrier did in 12 years. Even Urban Meyer (36-5) equaled the total number of losses in just over half as many games.
Now, Spurrier returns to Gainesville for the fi fth time as South Carolina’s coach. Spurrier is 1-3 in his previous four trips,
with the lone win coming in 2010. Spurrier joked after the game that “some-times the Gamecocks get out alive.”
“It’s not an easy place to play, but all the SEC schools are pretty diffi -cult,” Spurrier said. “Big stadium, loud, fans go cra-zy, certainly. It’s mostly a real good team there with the noise and so forth, just like LSU, Alabama, Au-burn.”
The Gators have plenty at stake Saturday. They need a win to remain in the hunt in the muddled SEC East. They also could become bowl eligible after missing the postseason
GATORS
CONTINUED FROM 12A last year, and a third con-secutive victory could se-cure Muschamp’s future at Florida.
But those are second-ary to making the Swamp, well, a murky spot for op-ponents.
“Home games are — I
don’t want to say the most important — but they are important to keep our fans happy,” receiver Latroy Pittman said. “We take pride in it. This is our home. We want to come out and show the fans that we can win at home.

CONTINUED FROM 14A
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon warned Con-gress on Thursday that the long, drawn-out mili-tary campaign against Islamic State militants is just beginning and could expand to include mod-est numbers of U.S. forces fi ghting alongside Iraqi troops.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, delivered a cautious assessment of the progress in the three-month-old war against Islamic extremists who brutally rule large sec-tions of Iraq and Syria.
It was more than a status report. President Barack Obama is seeking congressional approval for $5.6 billion to expand the U.S. mission in Iraq and send up to 1,500 more American troops. The administration is also pressing for reauthoriza-tion of its plan to train and equip moderate Syr-ian rebels, with that man-date expiring Dec. 11.
Hagel said the coalition, which has grown with 16 new members since Sep-tember, has made prog-ress, with the militants’ advances stalling and in some instances, reversed by air strikes and other military operations.
But he maintained that the struggle will be long and diffi cult in what could be a multi-year campaign.
Dempsey said the Iraqi forces are doing a better job, but he said an effort to move into Mosul, now held by IS, or to restore the border with Syria would require more com-plex operations.
“I’m not predicting at this point that I would recommend that those forces in Mosul and along the border would need to be accompanied by U.S. forces, but we’re certainly considering it,” Dempsey told the House Armed Services Committee.
He added that the U.S. has a modest force in Iraq now, serving as advisers and trainers, and “any expansion of that, I think, would be equally modest. I just don’t foresee a cir-
cumstance when it would be in our interest to take this fi ght on ourselves with a large military con-tingent.”
Dempsey’s comments echoed his testimony to Congress in September when he raised the possi-bility of an expanded U.S. role. Obama has said the operation will not involve U.S. ground troops. The types of troops likely to accompany Iraqi forces would be there to call in or direct airstrikes or oth-er close air support.
U.S. and coalition forc-es have conducted about 900 air strikes in Iraq and Syria as they contend with a core militant force of 15,000 to 18,000 fi ghters.
“This pressure is having an effect on potential ISIL recruits and collabora-tors — striking a blow to morale and recruitment,” Hagel said. “We know that. Our intelligence is very clear on that. And as Iraqi forces build strength, the tempo and intensity of our coalition’s air campaign will acceler-ate in tandem.”
He used the term ISIL, an acronym for the group’s former name, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
His testimony came as the leader of the Islamic State group, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, said in an audio recording posted
Thursday that the organi-zation will fi ght to the last man. It was his fi rst public statement since coalition forces launched airstrikes against his fi ghters in Iraq and Syria, in which al-Baghdadi allegedly was wounded.
Dempsey acknowl-edged the complicated trajectory of the fi ght.
“This campaign will be marked or characterized ... three steps forward, two steps back, and at ev-ery step forward or back we’ll debate about the size of the step,” he said.
As part of the cam-paign, the administration announced that special presidential envoy John Allen and deputy spe-cial presidential envoy Brett McGurk will travel to France and the United Arab Emirates to discuss coalition efforts to defeat the militants.
Obama has authorized the deployment of advi-sory teams and trainers to bolster struggling Iraqi forces across the coun-try, including into Iraq’s western Anbar province where fi ghting with Is-lamic State militants has been fi erce. Obama’s plan could boost the to-tal number of American troops in Iraq to 3,100. There are currently about 1,400 U.S. troops there, out of the 1,600 previous-ly authorized.

Worship Call
Stand tall! It’s a state-ment I have heard so many times, especially when I was in the United States Air Force.
My training instructor would tell all of his airmen
to “Stand Tall” and be rec-o g n i z e d as one of America’s fi nest. It i n s t i l l e d into me the emotion of being the best I could
be and, even though I was in basic training, I could march and train with the best of all military per-sonnel in the world. My instructor would march alongside of us and insure that none of his men were slouching or loafi ng.
He broke us down from our civilian way of life and put a new prospec-tive into our attitudes and outlook for the future. We learned that we were sec-ond to none and that we were among the strong, the free, and the brave.
Even though this has been many years ago I have never forgotten what I learned from that training instructor. Be-fore I joined the Air Force I would tend to go into situations or some of my sports games with an atti-tude of quitting or giving up when things were not the way I wanted them to be.
Now that I am older and have been in management positions for many years, I see a pattern among many young people of doing what I wanted to do when I was their age. They are willing to sacrifi ce their dignity and pride for short term or quick fi xes to fi nd solutions to their prob-lems in life. They are not willing to endure the pain and effort of hard work to accomplish the goals they have set for themselves. They are not willing to ad-here to the instructions of seasoned veterans to learn the basic knowledge and attitude for success in life.
The Bible tells us in Proverbs 9:10, “The fear of the Lord is the begin-ning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy
One is understanding.” All of us have read and heard this verse many times and yet we don’t seem to understand that this is the answer to life’s problems. We get our-selves into trouble when we try and fi x problems on our terms instead of turning them over to the Lord.
Just as my training in-structor of many years ago took me away from my civilian way of think-ing and instilled into me a pride for me, my coun-try, and pride to be one of God’s chosen few. God wants us to allow Him to take away our sinful ways and turn to Him for lead-ership and guidance.
He is in control of all situations and when we allow Him to be in control our lives are much better. All we have to do is read His word and talk to Him daily. Don’t let Satan ruin your life and take away your freedom of living a Christian life. God never told us it would be easy, but He has never told He wouldn’t take care of us. Living on earth is only for a few number days. Eternal life with God is forever.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your love, your guidance, and the ability to have wisdom from you. I praise you in all that I do and pray that you will guide me in the direction that you would have me go. Amen.

‘Standing tall’in all you do
Last week’s column didn’t make it to print on time because my com-puter was sick – but I still wanted to use por-tions of the writing -- so I made revisions and added to the thoughts for this week.
With Veterans Day having been this week, I was again reminded of how we need to show ap-preciation to our veter-ans – men and women all around us who have giv-en so much for this coun-try. I guess we get so busy enjoying the freedoms they have preserved, we often forget to acknowl-edge the individuals.
When my husband and I went to vote last week, I remembered that we probably would not have that right if our mili-tary folks had not stood strong so many times when our country was faced with radical efforts by foreign leaders who wanted to control the world in a horrifi c way. If Americans could truly comprehend the number of lives that were given and the family time sacri-fi ced by our military, ev-ery eligible voter would have gone to the polls to exercise their voting rights.
Veterans Day is often confused with Memo-rial Day. Memorial Day is in May and honors the memory of American service men and women who died in battle or as a result of injuries sus-tained during battle. Vet-erans Day is Nov. 11 and is to recognize all Ameri-can veterans – living or
deceased – but es-p e c i a l l y to say “thanks” to the l i v i n g s e r v i c e members who have s e r v e d our coun-
try during wartime as well as times of peace.
Veterans Day began in 1919 at the one-year anniversary of the sign-ing of the “armistice,” the end of World War I between the Allies and Germany in 1918. At the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the armistice went into effect. The confl ict was offi cially settled.
Congress approved an annual observance of the day in 1926, and in 1938 November 11 became a national holiday. As cur-rent generations observe Veterans Day, many more seasons of war are remembered as well as the service members who faithfully performed their duties in times of peace.
Area schools did spe-cial programs this week honoring our military service members, past and present. I was privi-leged to see the one Kos-suth Elementary stu-dents did and they did a wonderful job of re-minding us of how pre-cious our freedoms are. Those young smiling faces are the very reason our service members are so dedicated to the cause of preserving America’s ideals. The young ones
deserve a chance to live out their lives in free-dom as they pursue their dreams and use their tal-ents for the good of man-kind.
After watching my grandson in the program at Kossuth, I went to the Veterans Day Parade in Corinth and watched as many of our heroes passed by. What stories they could tell - tales from the wars as well as peace times, stories of the painful separations from family members for months and years, stories of happy reunions when they came home. We sel-dom take time to realize the depths of their sacri-fi ces.
A short poem by an anonymous author tells a little bit about how im-portant our veterans are to the freedoms we as Americans enjoy:
“It is the veteran, not the preacher, who has given us freedom of reli-gion.
It is the veteran, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the veteran, not the poet, who has given
us the freedom of speech.It is the veteran, not the
campus organizer, who has given us freedom to assemble.
It is the veteran, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the veteran, not the politician, who has given us the right to vote.”
Of course, we know our God and the founders of the United States Con-stitution have ultimately given us these freedoms – but our Veterans are defi nitely the ones who have preserved these rights for us through the decades.
… So as Nov. 11 has come and gone, let’s not forget to say thanks or share a word of encour-agement to the veterans as we go about our daily activities – maybe buy someone a meal or send a card. Do something to show appreciation to those special people who have had the heart and the determination to serve this country and make life better for us and people all around the world.
Veterans Day: Let’s all say ‘thank you’

SHOULD WE FIGHT CONGRESS?Someone once pointed out that if the opposite of “pro”
is “con”, then it must be that the opposite of “PROgress” is “CONgress”. Although I still think our government is the greatest on earth, I must agree that there are times when Congress (and our political system in general) seems to be going backward, not forward. A large majority of America’s “founding fathers” urged future generations to accept the God of the Bible and follow His moral principles. They believed that “righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people” (Proverbs 14:34). It seems many in our current political system take America’s freedom for granted. Some think there will always be a United States. This is a mistake, as I am sure that many in the fi rst century thought there would always be a Roman Empire. They lost what they had, and we can lose what we have, if we do not get back to God’s way.
You may ask, what should we do when we disagree with what our government is doing? Well, let me say this--If the laws being passed are simple unfair or unwise, we may voice our opinion through any legitimate and ethical means. However, if the laws do not violate or contradict the Word of God, we must still obey them! When Peter said, “Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake’” (I Peter 2:13), he did not add, “unless you are in inclined to do otherwise.”
The only time we can disobey the laws of our government (With Divine approval) is when such laws contradict God’s law. Actually, Peter (and John) did disobey the “powers that be” when they were told to stop teaching in the name of Jesus (Acts 4:15-20). But they did not become “revolution theologists”. We, as individuals, must fi ght for right only through wholesome, ethical, and scriptural means, not through violence, riot, or terrorism (Romans 13:1-7). Indeed, for “though we walk in the fl esh, we do not war according to the fl esh. For the weapons of our warfare are nor carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God...” (II Corinthians 10:3-5).
