Corinth has inked a promo-tional agreement with AT&T to tout the South Corinth/Al-corn Industrial Park as “fi ber-ready.”

Signed this week by Mayor

Tommy Irwin, the agreement is designed to permit AT&T and the city to “effectively pro-mote the advanced broadband communications capacity of the buildings in the develop-ment.”

AT&T representative Gun-

ner Goad recently told the Board of Aldermen that fi ber is in the ground there to provide communications services.

“Hopefully, this will be an economic driver for you guys,” he said.

It involves no cost to the city.

The agreement is for a term of one year but continues until ei-ther party terminates.

A Christmas blessing.The Lighthouse Founda-

tion’s Toy Store returned on Thursday to greet more than 400 pre-registered Crossroads area families who were given the opportunity to purchase new toys, clothing and sup-plies at pennies on the dollar.

The annual event, funded by community organizations and donors, was staffed by around 200 volunteers.

Issuing a “Merry Christmas and God bless you” to each shopper, foundation board member Greg Cooley occupied the front door leading into the toy-fi lled gym.

“It’s amazing what this thing has turned into,” said Cooley. “When we started about 20 years ago, we had the Toy Store in a small classroom. We only had a few thousand dol-lars worth in donations. Now we have tens of thousands of dollars worth of toys and other items and a wonderful group of committed volunteers.”

Cooley added, “this event is a

Volunteers Heather Whitehead and Jose Contreras help pick out the best toy for a mother in need at The Lighthouse Foundation’s annual Toy Store on Thursday.

Santa Claus is going to be busy this weekend.

Saint Nick has a trio of pa-rades to attend over the next three days in Alcorn County.

The parade fun starts tonight in Farmington with the fourth annual parade through town. Parade festivities in the town get started at 6 p.m. Kossuth’s parade – “Country Christmas” – is set for 4 p.m. Saturday and Rienzi’s event will be Sunday at 2 p.m.

Former Farmington town al-derman Guy Tucker will be the grand marshal.

“Guy was one of the fi rst al-dermen elected in the town,” said Farmington Mayor Dale Fortenberry.

Tucker served from 1997 through 2001.

Complete with elaborate decorations, Christmas trees and lots of fl uffy snow, the Crossroads Arena will be transformed into a sparkling “Winter Wonderland”, as families and individuals gather in cel-ebration of a time-honored tradition.

Held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, guests will be transported to the North Pole as they walk among reindeer barn and other whimsical structures in Santa’s village.

A collaborative effort by Magnolia Re-gional Health Center and the Magnolia Foundation, Winter Wonderland is orga-nized and set up by approximately 70 to 80 hospital employees, children from the community and other tireless volunteers.

“The Magnolia Foundation is happy to once again partner with Magnolia Re-gional Health Center to provide Winter Wonderland to our community,” said Magnolia Foundation Director Tracy Moore. “Our mission is to provide chari-table support to MRHC and similar non-profi t organizations in Alcorn County in order to improve the health and well-be-ing of all.”

Organization has be-come a key part of the Toy Store’s continued growth, according to Cooley.

Shoppers preregister for several weeks lead-ing up to the Toy Store’s opening day. Each shop-per is assigned a time pe-riod during the day they can come shop. Staff al-lows only 12 shoppers inside the gym every 15 minutes.

Volunteer shopper as-sistants like Heather Whitehead wait patiently by the front door for each shopper.

“Being able to give back to people who are less fortunate at this very im-portant time of the year is wonderful,” said White-head, who herself was a shopper just a few years ago. “I love doing this -- it’s a magical experience, for sure.”

Each shopper can select four toys per child from the store. Shopper assis-

tants push shopping carts and help shoppers select the best toy for their child.

“I love helping parents pick out a toy,” added Whitehead. “If you have kids of your own, it really hits home.

Corinth native and Mis-sissippi State University student Jose Contreras volunteers his time each

year adding a helping hand wherever is needed.

On Thursday, the 21-year-old helped trans-late English to a Spanish speaking shopper.

“This fi lls a need in my heart to help the commu-nity,” he said.

Foundation Executive Director Gary Caveness said earlier this week that

the non-profi t is around 40 percent short of their fundraising goal and cash donations are still needed to help make this year’s Toy Store a success.

Donations may be mailed to The Lighthouse Foundation, P.O. Box 2121, Corinth, MS 38835 or online at lighthousec-orinth.org.

a week or longer getting everything assembled and prepared for the annual event.

With many activities from which to choose, patrons can participate in holiday arts and crafts in Santa’s workshop or in-dulge in a variety of deca-dent treats beverages and other festive snacks from the sweet shop.

A silent auction will also take place, allowing the opportunity for those in attendance to bid on 20 Christmas trees, 12 wreaths and other deco-rations generously donat-ed by local merchants and businesses.

“The proceeds from the auction of decorated trees, wreaths and holiday decor is one of the fundraisers which makes our mission come to life,” said Moore. “We truly appreciate the support of the community and want to wish everyone Happy Holidays.”

In keeping with the joy-ous festivities, all can hop aboard the Magnolia Ex-press as it rolls through the town or write and send letters to St. Nicholas at the village post offi ce.

Perched on a throne befi tting the Father of Christmas, Santa himself will be located upstairs for photos and gift requests.

Rudolph, Mrs. Claus, magical elves and Elsa and Ana from “Fozen” will also make appear-ances.

Free to the public, guests are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to the AMEN Food Pantry which will be stationed near the front door upon entry.

In a showing of generos-ity and support, Kimberly Clark and Zaxby’s are both donating items specifi cally

to the food pantry.T-shirts will be avail-

able at $15 for youth siz-es XL–L, $20 for adult sizes S–XL and $25 for adult sizes 2XL and 3XL. Several sizes are already sold out so shirts will be sold on a fi rst come, fi rst served basis.

“This event would not be possible were it not for the generous spirit of volunteerism and holiday

cheer,” said MRHC Di-rector of Marketing Ben Tucker. “The attendance has grown tremendously over the years.”

“We are grateful for the opportunity to serve our patients with the highest level of healthcare each and every year and to of-fer back our Wonderful Wonderful in apprecia-tion for trusting us to take care of them and their

family and friends in their time of need,” he add-ed. “Magnolia Regional Health Center would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.”

A glorious event for the entire family, guests are encouraged to bring their children, relatives and friends for an afternoon of holiday excitement and yule-tide fun.

Today in

History

Today is Friday, Dec. 11, the 345th day of 2015. There are 20 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Dec. 11, 1844, the first experimental use of an inhaled anesthetic in dentistry took place as Dr. Horace Wells of Hart-ford, Connecticut, under the influence of nitrous oxide, had a colleague extract one of his teeth.

On this date:

In 1792, France’s King Louis XVI went before the Convention to face charges of treason. (Lou-is was convicted, and executed the following month.)

In 1936, Britain’s King Edward VIII abdicated the throne so he could marry American divorcee Wallis Warfield Simpson; his brother, Prince Albert, became King George VI.

In 1941, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States; the U.S. responded in kind.

In 1964, Che Guevara addressed the United Nations; in his speech, the Argentine revolution-ary declared that “the final hour of colonialism has struck.”

In 1972, Apollo 17’s lunar module landed on the moon with astro-nauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt aboard; during three extravehicular activities (EVAs), they became the last two men to date to step onto the lunar sur-face.

In 1980, President Jimmy Carter signed leg-islation creating a $1.6 billion environmental “su-perfund” to pay for clean-ing up chemical spills and toxic waste dumps. “Magnum P.I.,” starring Tom Selleck, premiered on CBS.

In 1997, more than 150 countries agreed at a global warming confer-ence in Kyoto, Japan, to control the Earth’s green-house gases.

In 2008, Bernie Madoff was arrested, accused of running a multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme. (Madoff is serv-ing a 150-year federal prison sentence.)

Booneville shelter seeks holiday help

BOONEVILLE — Half-way Home Animal Shel-ter at 200 Townhouse Drive in Booneville will celebrate its annual Giving Tree on Saturday, Dec. 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for the public to select a name from the shelter Christmas tree.

“We especially want the children in the area to participate,” said Anne Marie Ford. Each child or adult will get to take a tour of the shelter and choose the particular animal they would like to sponsor.

“We will then let them write their name and their sponsored kitty or dog name on a Christmas ball to help decorate our tree. If they would like to have their photo made with the dog or cat they have chosen, there will be someone available to take photos.”

Santa will also be at the shelter Saturday, Dec. 12 from noon until 2 p.m. to have photos made with him.

Supplies for the dog-gie or kitty angels may be dropped off for the chosen animal at the donor’s convenience.

(For more information call 662-720-1033.)

People’s Bank plans to host blood drive

RIPLEY — The Peo-ple’s Bank of Ripley will host a blood drive from noon until 5 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 17.

  City museum plans Christmas toy drive

TUPELO — The Oren Dunn Museum City Mu-seum is currently hold-ing their annual Toys for Tots Tot Drive .

(For more information call 662-841-6438.)

Magevney House temporarily closed

MEMPHIS — The Ma-gevney House, located at 198 Adams Avenue in Memphis is tempo-rarily closed to visitors.

The oldest home in the city, and a prop-erty which remains intact from the earliest days of Memphis, the Magevney house was constructed circa 1837 and was the home of the Magevney family until it was given to the City in 1941 for use as a free museum. 

Eugene Magevney was an immigrant from Ire-land who was a teacher, politician, land owner, and philanthropist.

The house is consid-ered the “cradle of Ca-tholicism” in Memphis as it hosted the first Catholic mass, wed-ding, and christening.  

Magevney was instru-mental in establishing St. Peter’s Catholic Church next door.

Scott Field at MSU wins award for turf

STARKVILLE — Mis-sissippi State’s achieve-ments on the football field have once again risen to a top national ranking – with the latest honor recognizing the grounds crew that has bolstered the quality of Scott Field at Davis Wade Stadium to pe-rennial national promi-nence.

The Sports Turf Man-agers Association is recognizing Scott Field as the Football Field of the Year for colleges

and universities with natural playing sur-faces. A panel of 15 judges independently scored entries based on playability, surface appearance, utilization of innovative solutions, effective use of budget and implementation of a comprehensive agro-nomic program.

For winning, MSU’s Sports Turf Facilities Management team will be honored at the STMA annual awards banquet Jan. 22 in San Diego, California, and Scott Field will be featured in SportsTurf Magazine.

“It is an honor to be recognized nationally by this organization, and it is a credit to those who work diligently to keep Scott Field in such im-peccable quality,” said Vice President for Cam-pus Services Amy Tuck. “Their work and atten-tion to detail means so much to the entire uni-versity family and every-one who enjoys seeing the Bulldogs play.”

Scott Field, which also won the award in 2003, is one of two university fields to earn the honor twice, along with the field at Iowa State.

Since 1992, STMA’s Field of the Year award has honored members who manage a variety of sporting grounds at the professional, col-legiate, schools (K-12), and parks and recre-ation levels.

“Each year, we look forward to hand-picking the best natural grass athletic surfaces in the country through the Field of the Year award,” Kim Heck, CEO of STMA, said on the organization’s website.

 Auction will mark Presley’s birthday

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — An auction of Elvis Presley memorabilia will be part of a celebration for what would have been the late rock ‘n’ roll icon’s 81st birthday.

Elvis Presley Enter-prises says fans are expected to gather at Graceland, Presley’s Memphis home, for a cake-cutting ceremony Jan. 8. Guest speak-ers will include Glenn Derringer who, as an

11-year-old pianist, ap-peared on the Dorsey Brothers Show with Presley in March 1956. Also speaking will be June Juanico, who dat-ed Elvis.

The Auction at Graceland will take place Jan. 7. Among the 126 authenticated artifacts is the guitar Presley played during the “Aloha from Hawaii” concert in 1973. The Gibson Ebony Dove guitar has an estimated value of $300,000 to $500,000.

Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, on Jan. 8, 1935. He died in Memphis on Aug. 16, 1977.

New UM brochure features renderings

OXFORD — For the first time, architectural renderings of the highly-anticipated $50 million renovation and expan-sion of the University of Mississippi’s Student Union are available to the public.

The four-color, eight-page brochure features drawings of a Grove-side view, north bird’s-eye view, north exterior view, east entrance view and second-floor views of the dining and lobby areas. Also in-cluded are renderings of the Student Union ballroom, conference room and council room.

Construction, which began in early July, is ex-pected to be completed by 2019. Upgrading the building will increase its size from 97,000 square feet to about 157,000 square feet.

“The Student Union expansion and renova-tion project supports the university’s com-mitment to developing student leaders by providing opportunities to enhance their leader-ship capacity, value-based development and social responsibility,” said Brandi Hephner La-Banc, UM vice chancel-lor for student affairs. “The university will capitalize on this oppor-tunity to continue our success in providing leadership opportuni-ties and supporting stu-dent activities for Ole Miss students for years to come.”

asked to bring at least two cans of non-perishable food items.

“We have about 900 cans right now,” said Fortenberry.

The cans of food are used to make food bas-kets for needy families in the community.

“It’s something we like to do to give back to the community,” said the mayor of the 45 baskets delivered to families. “It has been amazing to see what people do every year to help … every penny is spent for those food bas-kets.”

Farmington’s parade will begin on County Road 200 at the Farm-ington Water Association and travel down the coun-ty road before turning on County Road 218.

“We will start block-ing off County Road 200 to 213 at 5 p.m.,” said Fortenberry. “I ask people to tolerate the inconve-nience once a year for the parade.”

Santa Claus will return to Farmington City Hall on Saturday. He will be available to have his pho-to taken with children be-ginning at 3 p.m.

“Those wanting to have Santa photos taken must bring their own cameras,” added Fortenberry.

■ The parade fun gets geared back up on Satur-day at Kossuth

with Kossuth High School graduate Briga-dier General John Rhodes serving as parade grand marshal. Rhodes has been with the Missis-sippi National Guard for over 25 years and is com-mander of the 66th Troop Command.

The Kossuth parade route is set to begin at the arch near the L.C. Follin Christian Life Center and go around Kossuth Ele-mentary School on Coun-try Road 604. Entries will turn left past Kos-suth Middle School onto County Road 669 and fol-low the road before turn-ing left onto County Road 618. The parade will dis-band prior to Highway 2.

■ Rienzi’s annual pa-rade will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday.

Trevor and Kellie Wil-liams along with David and Joy Massey all will serve as grand marshals. Jim and Doris Strickland will be honored guests.

Self-righteousness is liberating. The same people who are most exercised about guns in America, and want to ban and even confi s-cate entire categories of fi rearms, know little

about them and evidently feel no compunction to learn.

The worst terror attack in the United States since Sept. 11 has become the occasion for another frenzied, poorly informed push for new gun re-strictions.

President Barack Obama gave a prime-time address on the terror threat, in which he resolutely reaffi rmed the status quo in the campaign

against ISIS. Except that he hopes that gun control, one of the signal political and policy failures of our time, will now be deployed to help foil the apocalyptic terror group.

Almost every time there is a mass shooting, there is a rush to push old gun-control chest-nuts, regardless of their applicability. The San Bernardino terror couple didn’t buy their guns at a gun show (making the effort to close the so-called gun-show loophole irrelevant); they weren’t on the terrorism watch list (so the proposal to ban people on the list from buying guns wouldn’t have stopped them); and Syed Farook passed a background check when he bought two handguns (rendering calls for uni-versal background checks moot).

The president and The New York Times, which saw fi t to publish a front-page editorial for the fi rst time since it thundered against Warren Harding in 1920, have fastened on the two “assault weapons,” AR-15s, used in the at-tack. The Times called them “weapons of war, barely modifi ed.” President Obama referred to them as “powerful assault weapons.”

On this question, the left has fallen for its own propaganda. Decades ago, gun-control-lers decided to play on the confusion between semi-automatic versus automatic weapons to push for a ban on nasty-looking assault weapons, even though they are, for the most part, functionally indistinguishable from oth-er semi-automatic rifl es.

The AR-15 is one of those semi- automatic guns. It isn’t exotic or particularly powerful. It is the most popular rifl e in the country. At least 3.5 million are in circulation. It is lightweight, accurate and doesn’t have much of a kick. You wouldn’t use it in combat and, in fact, wouldn’t necessarily use it to hunt. A .223 caliber gun, it is less powerful than many handguns. Some states forbid .223 caliber rifl es in deer hunting because they aren’t powerful enough to reli-ably take down the game.

If gun-controllers know any of this, they hide it well. Nor do they seem to care that a prior version of the assault-weapons ban, in effect in the 10 years after 1994, was wholly ineffectual. A Department of Justice-backed study concluded, “Should it be renewed, the ban’s effects on gun violence are likely to be small at best and perhaps too small for reli-able measurement.” (Rifl es of all types, let alone assault rifl es, are used in gun homi-cides only rarely.)

The proposal to keep people on the terror-ist watch list from buying guns sounds sen-sible, yet it is problematic in that it denies people an explicit constitutional right on the basis of little or no due process. Last year, the Times itself inveighed against “the shadowy, self-contradictory world of American terror watch lists.” If the watch list is to become a no-gun list, it has to be cleaned up, and list-ees should have an opportunity to challenge their status upon attempting to buy a gun.

Such a prohibition would affect a tiny slice of gun purchases and would likely be mere symbolism, like the assault- weapons ban. The overriding reality that gun-controllers ignore is that almost all gun homicides are committed with handguns in routine street crime, and are often obtained in informal networks operating outside the gun rules we already have.

But please don’t confuse the anti-gun cam-paigners with facts. Their ignorance is invin-cible, and necessary to their crusade.

(Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.low-ry@nationalreview.com.)

The ignorant crusade

Prayer for today

A verse to share

All a politician really has are words. They are his only weapon, his only sword, his only shield.

Even should he rise to the presidency and thus be able to command actual troops, he fi nds himself still need-ing words to justify to the nation why he is putting American lives at risk.

And if our nation itself is attacked, the words our president speaks are the words the nation turns to for comfort and solace – and for the assurance that pun-ishment will be meted out and vengeance unleashed against the evildoers.

Franklin Roosevelt called Dec. 7, 1941 – the day of the Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor – “a date which will live in infamy.”

Those words still live in history. Less recollected but equally important were the words that followed. “Al-ways will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us,” Roosevelt said. “I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.”

When Harry Truman authorized dropping two atomic bombs on Japan in 1945, some American church leaders were hor-

rifi ed and asked him to show mercy in the future.

T r u -man was u n m o v e d . “When you have to deal with a beast, you have to treat him as a

beast,” Truman said.He had never forgotten

Roosevelt’s words after that day of “infamy,” and Tru-man wanted the Japanese and the rest of the world to know it.

Words matter. Words ut-tered today shape the ac-tions we take in the future.

American and European citizens go to the Middle East, get “radicalized” and return as killers and some-times as suicide bombers. What words could persuade them to do that?

And what words, what cause, could make a young mother put her 6-month-old baby in the hands of the child’s grandmother and then put on black tacti-cal gear, pick up an assault rifl e and, with her husband, massacre 14 people in San Bernardino, California?

What words can a presi-dent then use to address the nation about this slaughter? What can he say?

“Our success won’t de-

pend on tough talk or aban-doning our values or giving in to fear,” President Barack Obama said Sunday night from behind a lectern in the Oval Offi ce. “That’s what groups like ISIL are hoping for. Instead, we will prevail by being strong and smart, resilient and relentless, and by drawing upon every as-pect of American power.”

Those words cannot calm every fear or provide easy answers. But they resonate: “strong and smart, resilient and relentless.”

The Republican opposi-tion had its own answers.

When President Obama said that people on the no-fl y list should be unable to buy fi rearms, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz reacted by saying that the president should not be “attempting to take away the constitutional liber-ties of millions of innocent Americans.”

John Kasich wants boots on the ground. “Without taking the fi ght to ISIS on the ground, ISIS won’t be defeated,” he said. “We must stop delaying and do it.”

Marco Rubio said terror-ism is part of God’s plan: “What we may interpret as bad, and most certainly is in the case of Paris or 9/11, even that is part of a broad-er plan for the universe and

for our lives that we’re just not going to know the an-swer to. God’s ways are not our ways.”

Donald Trump live-tweeted during the speech with deep thoughts such as “Wish Obama would say ISIS, like almost everyone else, rather than ISIL,” and “We need a new President - FAST!”

Rand Paul said: “We should be advocating for more concealed carry abil-ity for law-abiding Ameri-cans.” (One killer in San Bernardino had been a law-abiding American – until he started shredding people with an easily obtained as-sault weapon.)

Ben Carson called the kill-ings a “hate crime.” Asked to explain, Carson said: “Well, it’s hard to imagine that you would shoot a bunch of peo-ple if you didn’t hate them, right? You don’t do that to people you love.”

But Cruz, who passes for an intellectual in the Republican fi eld, used his words thoughtfully. “If I am elected president,” he tweeted, “I will direct the Department of of Defense to destroy ISIS.”

They all have an answer for terror

OXFORD — As Election Day approached, Republi-cans in Mississippi had a col-lective theme: Look at what we’ve done for Mississippi, and we’ve only just begun.

A majority of voters agreed, fueling a transition that is, well, historic.

Consider that former Gov. Kirk Fordice, when he took offi ce in 1992, broke a string of Democratic gover-nors dating to 1870.

More impressively, con-sider that Democrats held a majority in the Mississippi Legislature for 130 years until just four years ago when Republicans edged them out.

In January, when Novem-ber’s gains are realized, the Grand Old Party will have, or nearly have, veto-proof strength in the Capitol — not that they would ever have cause to override the party’s head guy, Gov. Phil Bryant, who broke his own record margin of victory in winning a second term.

Of course, it needs to be pointed out that Republi-cans today don’t share the ideology of their forebears in the latter 1800s. Ames was a carpetbagger, a Union Army general elected during Re-construction when the Party of Lincoln prevailed.

Today’s Republicans are conservatives who spend a lot of time trying to out-con-

servative one another. And their ranks have grown due in part to the mes-sage sown by many, includ-ing state par-ty chairman Joe Nosef, who insists

there’s no longer any room for conservatives in the Democratic Party.

When Republicans got power, they dominated the drawing of legislative dis-trict lines to amass more.

A couple of thoughts re-lated to the surge:

■ Will Mississippi follow the model of states where Republican wins were fol-lowed by aggressive wel-fare reforms? In Maine, the number of able-bodied adults without minor depen-dents receiving food aid was whacked 80 percent under a “get a job” initiative. Min-nesota tightened up in other ways. So has Kansas.

■ If Mississippi does fol-low such a strategy, will there be jobs?

Unemployment statistics are often misunderstood. The numbers are based both on job-seekers (which doesn’t include everyone) and people working in available jobs.

For instance, in October

2,900 job-seekers found employment, but 300 lost their jobs.

Joblessness is spotty in Mississippi. Six of the 82 counties have employment levels well ahead of the na-tional averages, but a much larger number, mostly in the Delta, have much high-er rates than the state as a whole.

Employment was a main tenet of Bryant’s fi rst term, and a theme in his re-elec-tion campaign. But the fact is that the state’s jobless rate has consistently been higher than the national av-erage.

■ Money.Republicans campaign-

ing for offi ce were espe-cially proud of their “fi scal stewardship,” but the fact is that Mississippi has always balanced its books — even during the decades when those nasty, reckless Demo-crats held the purse strings. It is a blessing to all Missis-sippians of any party that the per-capita public debt shared by citizens here is $5,600, half that of Califor-nians and about a third of what each Massachusetts resident owes.

One threat to the Repub-lican Party is more interne-cine battles between those who consider themselves conservatives and those who consider the conserva-

tives not nearly conservative enough. This, plus the temp-tation to give government money to their big business pals and to punish people for being poor — instead of helping them escape poverty — are their major negatives.

Their positive, as the elec-tion results attest, is that the voting public is tired of what they see as an array of gov-ernment ineffi ciency and waste and policies that prop up government at the ex-pense of the private sector.

The adage, “With great power comes great respon-sibility,” is attributed both to Voltaire and to Spiderman, but regardless of who said it fi rst, it certainly applies to members of the Mississippi Republican Party.

The remaining Democrats in the House and the Senate have been pushed to the mar-gins. They have a seat at the table, but that’s all they have.

The big question is whether Republicans — with unprecedented clout — will be innovators who will call on their better an-gels to help the state and all its people or whether voters four years, eight years, or 12 years will come to believe all they have is talk.

Republicans have unprecedented power

“One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.” — Psalms 27:4

My Father, may I never be content to pass by thy beautiful offerings and keep on in wretched despair. Save me if I may ‘be inclin-ing toward misery. Give me the spirit of re-pose, and help me to confi de in thee as I daily seek the strength of thy love. Amen.

Review

Daily Corinthian • Friday, December 11, 2015 • 5A

It is ironic that the same week I see a movie about the impact of communism-related para-noia on the life of a Hollywood screenwriter and his colleagues in the middle of the 20th cen-tury, presidential hope-ful Donald Trump makes a xenophobic comment that smacks of McCar-thyism in our supposedly more enlightened 21st century.

The shark-jumping, self-imploding, poorly-coiffed Trumpster is not unlike former Senator Joseph McCarthy. Mc-Carthy was — and Trump is — an opportunist. McCarthy was — and Trump is — look-ing for scapegoats. Both have discovered the power of airing rabble-rousing grievances in soliciting supporters — albeit not very sentient ones.

This week, I saw the movie ‘Trumbo,’ a fi lm starring Bry-an Cranston and Diane Lane chronicling the struggles of screenwriter Dalton Trumbo and the group known as the Hollywood Ten during the Red Scare. It was a time when

those who made their living in the public eye did not desire to be remotely linked to the prin-ciples of communism, much less labeled card-carrying com-munists. To do so equated with

the kiss of death in their careers.

Early on, in the 1930s, Dalton Trumbo was one of the highest paid Hol-lywood screenwriters, earning up to $4000 a week and $80,000 in one particular year. He worked on such fi lms ‘Our Vines Have Tender Grapes’ and ‘Thirty Sec-onds Over Tokyo.’

However, Trumbo was a self-avowed isolationist Com-munist—as opposed to a Com-munist who actively opposed Hitler and the rise of Fascism in Europe. In 1947, Trumbo was called, along with ten other Hollywood employees, to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee regard-ing the planting of Communist propaganda in American fi lms. They refused to give informa-tion and were ultimately black-listed for their political affi lia-

tion.As a result of his refusal to

speak, Trumbo was convicted of contempt of court and sen-tenced to serve time in federal prison in Ashland, Kentucky. He served 11 years. Some Hol-lywood well-to-dos, including Edgar G. Robinson and Elia Ka-zan, ended up being pressured to speak out against the black-listed screenwriters. Trumbo later said in 1970 that there was fault on all sides: “There was bad faith and good, honesty and dishonesty, courage and cowardice, selfl essness and op-portunism, wisdom and stupid-ity, good and bad on both sides; and almost every individual involved, no matter where he stood, combined some or all of these antithetical qualities in his own person, in his own acts.”

Trumbo ultimately moved his family from the ranch in Cali-fornia to Mexico City after be-ing unable to secure work. He wrote low-budget screenplays for meager pay, many of which were released under pseud-onyms, including the pen name Robert Rich. As the 1960s got

into swing, Kirk Douglas re-vealed that Trumbo was the writer for one of his famous starring roles, ‘Spartacus,” a move that is often cited as the end of the Hollywood blacklist-ing. Finally, in 2011, 35 years af-ter his death, Trumbo was post-humously given full credit for having written the classic ‘Ro-man Holiday,’ starring Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn.

After watching the movie, I thought of the strife that stake-burners such as McCar-thy caused. His tactics split up friendships, halted careers, fa-cilitated the imprisonment of generally law-abiding citizens, and likely split up families—as the constant toil to make a liv-ing while blacklisted nearly caused the dissolution of Trum-bo’s marriage.

In the present day we should be careful legitimizing a can-didate who employs similar tactics. It’s a bit unsettling that the Republican National Com-mittee still welcomed Donald Trump as a “high-caliber candi-date,” as they stated, right after he had just labeled Mexican im-migrants “rapists” in the speech

announcing his presidential candidacy.

It wasn’t enough, however, for Trump to demonize Mexi-can immigrants; this week he felt compelled to advocate the exclusion of all Muslim immi-grants from America. I won-dered if the next two words out of his mouth might possibly be “concentration camps,” hear-kening back to the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.

When I listen to Trump speak, it sort of makes me wish we had a House Un-American Activi-ties Committee — but one that worked in an opposite mode to that of the 1950s. Is it un-American to label all Mexicans as rapists and to push for the exclusion of a group of people based on religion and ethnicity?

Yes, it certainly is.

LEAKESVILLE — While it doesn’t carry the name recog-nition of Vicksburg, Corinth or Brice’s Cross Roads, the Battle of McLeod’s Mill outside Leakesville a century and a half ago was the most signifi cant engagements of the Union’s last major advancements in the Deep South aimed at bringing the Civil War to a close.

Recently, more light has be-gun to be shed on the different facets of General Davidson’s West Pascagoula Raid and the battle that claimed the life of a member of America’s famous Westinghouse family.

History buffs and Civil War reenactors will gather in Greene County to team up for a com-memoration and re-enactment the Battle of McLeod’s Mill today through Sunday. The 3-day event will take place in Leakesville along the banks of the Chickasawhay River, not far from the site of the original en-counter. Along with the cannon fi re and saber rattling among re-enactors, visitors to the

event will also be able to see liv-ing history displays, enjoy peri-od music and dancing, enjoy an old-time Christmas parade and many other activities.

A special invitation is sent to all Crossroads and Corinth area Civil War buffs to attend.

“It is going to be a grand time with a lot of different activities,” said Town of Leakesville spokes-person Rex Garretson. ““We had a great inaugural event last year and are expecting quite a strong turnout again this year.”

Davidson’s Raid was part of ongoing Department of the Gulf operations designed to aid and complement Sherman’s March to the Sea and General George Thomas’ defense of Nashville. Virginian-born Brigadier Gen-eral John Wynn Davidson was tasked by Major General E.R.S. Canby to raid deep into Mis-sissippi to cut the M&O Rail-road, threaten Mobile, and divert Confederate resources from Nashville. Although un-successful in severing the rail line, General Canby reported

Davidson’s movements were causing a panic in Confederate held Mobile and were devastat-ing the country generally, while demonstrating the Union could operate deep in Confederate territory sapping Confederate resources and morale.

The raid was very much a brother against brother affair, given the number of Unionist Southern Regiments involved. LT Albert Westinghouse, the el-der brother of industrialist and inventor George Westinghouse, was killed while leading a cav-alry charge at McLeod’s Mill.

The fi rst observance of the historic engagement, held in 2014 on the 150th anniversary of the battle, drew large crowds to this south Mississippi com-munity and drew rave reviews from reenactors and other visi-tors. Organizers are hoping for an even bigger turnout this year as plans include the addition of a period church service and a second skirmish reenactment to go along with the living his-tory demonstrations, period

ball and main battle reenact-ment already in the works.

“The Battle of McLeod’s Mill has for a long time remained under the radar of most histo-rians and Civil War enthusi-asts,” Russell Turner, Editor of the Greene County Herald in Leakesville said. “But, it turns out that it was a much bigger deal than even those of us who live here understood.”

Re-enactors are expected to begin arriving on Thursday, but scheduled festivities will get underway on Friday, Dec. 11. Living history demonstrations will be ongoing in Leakesville’s Green Park for area school chil-dren and the general public from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. The Greene County Historical So-ciety will host an Open House at the Greene County Museum from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m.

The annual Leakesville Christmas Parade is set for 6 p.m. and is once again centered around the theme of an old time Christmas. A live cannonade will also follow the parade, with

a traditional fi reworks show set for 8 p.m.

Also following the parade will be an appearance and book signing by author and historian Chris Watts. Watts’ new book “The Great Sweet Potato Raid” takes a close look at the largely forgotten story of one of the largest Federal Calvary Raids to impact the Gulf South region during the war.

Saturday will kick off with the unveiling of a new Greene Coun-ty Civil War Veteran’s Memorial on the lawn of the courthouse at 10 a.m. The offi cial re-enact-ment of the Battle of McLeod’s Mill is set to take place at 2 p.m. at the Leakesville Landing of the Chickasawhay River.

2 students charged for threat, weapons

VICKSBURG — A Vicksburg teenager faces charges after a home-made explosive was found at Warren Central Junior High’s library and detonated in a nearby field.

Vicksburg Police Capt. Sandra Williams, in a news release, said the student will face charges of possession of an explosive device and hav-ing weapons — knives — on school property.

The Vicksburg Post reports a second stu-dent was booked with having a knife on school property but Williams said authorities don’t believe that student was involved with making or transporting the device to the school.

Both students are be-ing held at the Warren County Detention Center pending a hearing in youth court. Their names and ages were withheld.

Police Chief Robert Stewart says a student from another school pro-vided the initial tip about the device.

 County to pay higher insurance premiums

COLUMBUS — Lowndes County will see a rise in insurance pre-miums.

The Commercial Dis-patch reports county administrator Ralph Billingsley presented a health insurance renewal proposal, effective Jan. 1, at Monday’s Board of Supervisors meeting.

The employee portion of the premiums will remain at $37.16 per

month for most employ-ees. The amount of mon-ey the county contributes will go from $496.50 to $680.69 per employee per month.

Premiums will increase by about $200 per month for the county’s retired employees and those who have family cover-age. The county won’t cover any of those poli-cies’ increased costs.

Billingsley says the rise in insurance premiums is due to a number of large claims in 2015.

Billingsley sys 300 em-ployees are currently on the county’s insurance plan, with 10 more retir-ees still on the plan.

 Deer Island to build new pier for visitors

BILOXI — A new pier on Deer Island is ex-pected to be open within the next two months as part of an effort to open the island to coastal residents and visitors, officials said.

According to news media outlets, Missis-

sippi Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann said Wednesday that creating an easier way to access to the island will provide an economic boost for the area.

“Our goal that has been from the very first, to get people that come here to spend one more day here,” Hosemann said. “Just one more day. It’s a huge economic benefit.”

The 170-foot pier cost about $360,000, which was paid for through Tidelands Funds, and construction began in the summer. The pier will allow boaters to dock on the island and could fa-cilitate a ferry as well.

Whether or not the pier will be the only infra-structure development on Deer Island is up in the air. Hosemann and Mississippi Department of Marine Resources Di-rector Jamie Miller said they will take a careful look at adding any addi-tional amenities.

“We want to make sure that it’s a pristine loca-tion,” Hosemann said.

Armed man caught at A-State campus

JONESBORO, Ark. — An armed man drove onto Arkansas State University on Thursday, sparking a campus lock-down before police took him into custody without any shots fired, a univer-sity spokesman said.

University spokesman Bill Smith said the man was taken into custody about an hour after the incident began. The uni-versity lifted a lockdown for all parts of campus except for the east side of the student union.

Jonesboro Police spokesman Paul Hol-mes said bomb squad technicians were going to examine the truck the suspect had driven into the middle of campus.

The school sent an alert early Thursday af-ternoon urging the evac-uation of the student union following a report of an active shooter. A later tweet said there were no shots fired or any reports of injuries.

Holmes said a nego-tiator was sent to the scene to speak with the man. It wasn’t clear what, if any, discus-sions took place.

John Miller, a junior at Arkansas State, told the Arkansas Democrat Gazette in a phone in-terview that he was tak-ing a test in the humani-ties building when he saw through a window a green pickup drive onto the lawn in front of the union.

About five minute later, after finishing his test, Miller said “people came running and screaming freaking out.”

At that point, Miller ran with several women to the library as police and SWAT team officers began descending on the campus, he said.

The university is l in Jonesboro, about 130 miles northeast of Little Rock. Its enrollment is more than 13,000, but not all students were on campus Thursday because it was the sec-ond day of final exams. Arkansas State said tests that were sched-uled for Thursday night will be administered next week.

Jonesboro is also home to Westside Mid-dle School, where an 11-year-old and 13-year-old fatally shot four students and a teacher in 1998.

 Health cooperative reports huge losses

The lone health insur-ance cooperative to make money last year on the Affordable Care Act’s public insurance exchanges is now losing millions and cutting off individual enrollment for 2016.

Maine’s Commu-nity Health Options lost more than $17 million in the first nine months of this year, after mak-ing $10.9 million in the same period last year. A spokesman said higher-than-expected medical costs have hurt the co-operative.

The announcement casts further doubt on the future of insurance cooperatives, small

nonprofit insurers that were created during the ACA’s creation to inject competition in insur-ance markets. These co-ops immediately struggled to build their businesses. A dozen of the 23 created have already folded.

An Associated Press review of financial statements from 10 of the 11 surviving co-ops shows that they lost, on average, more than $21 million in the first nine months of the year. Those losses range from $3.9 million reported by Maryland’s Evergreen Health Co-operative to $50.7 mil-lion booked by Land of Lincoln Mutual Health Insurance Company in Illinois.

“Clearly the remaining health care co-ops are in dire circumstances,” said Robert Laszewski, a health care consul-tant and former insur-ance executive who has been a frequent critic of the Affordable Care Act. “I don’t know how any of them can survive another year.”

The cooperatives, like other health insur-ers, have been hit by soaring medical and prescription drug costs. Plus they’ve had to spend money building a network of care provid-ers, negotiating rates with them and then marketing their plans to customers.

“It is probably impos-sible for a startup in the health insurance space to make any sig-nificant money in the first couple years,” said Standard & Poor’s ana-lyst Deep Banerjee.

Established players also have struggled to sell coverage on the ACA’s state-based health insurance ex-changes, which are a key element behind the law’s push to cover mil-lions of uninsured peo-ple. UnitedHealth Group Inc. recently reported deep losses from its exchange business and said it would decide next year whether to even remain in the ex-

changes in 2017. 

Hospital sued over lack of interpreter

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. — A deaf couple says a Tennessee hospital dis-criminated against them by failing to provide a qualified sign language interpreter while their 21-year-old daughter was dying of cancer.

Chris and Donna Cantrell’s federal law-suit against Mountain States Health Alliance in Johnson City was filed Wednesday by Dis-ability Rights Tennessee and the National Asso-ciation of the Deaf.

The organizations say the Johnson City Medi-cal Center refused to provide qualified sign language interpreters to allow the couple from Wise, Virginia, to participate in their daughter’s care during the six months before Sydnei Cantrell died on May 19.

“(The couple) watched their daughter suffer from serious health con-ditions ... without ever receiving a full explana-tion of what was hap-pening to their daugh-ter,” the lawsuit said. “(Donna) Cantrell saw her daughter burst into tears but had no idea why she was crying. Be-cause her daughter was too upset to explain, (she) did not learn that her daughter was dying until much later.”

The hospital provided a person to facilitate communications on few-er than five occasions, but the person was not qualified to act as an interpreter and didn’t sign clearly enough, the lawsuit said.

The lawsuit asks a judge to order Mountain States to develop a nondiscrimination policy requiring the provision of qualified sign language interpreters, and to train medical staff on compli-ance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The lawsuit also asks for un-specified compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees.

Slowing sales?The U.S. government reports November’s retail sales figures today, and analysts expect another month of slow growth. Spending by consumers has kept the U.S. economy afloat while the global economy remains weak and the strong dollar makes American goods expensive abroad. Consumers keep spending, but low gas prices and inflation are limiting that growth. Analysts expect sales to inch up 0.3 percent, which is an improvement over the last few months.

Improving outlookAnalysts think Americans will feel a bit better about their incomes and finances. The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index is expected to come in at around 92, about where it’s been for the last six months but a slight improvement from October and November. Americans have been feeling a bit better about the economy because hiring is steady and salaries and wages are slowly improving.

Prices improving?The government will release its monthly report on prices charged by farmers, manufacturers and other producers today. The Producer Price Index measures the price of goods before they reach consum-ers. Analysts expect that prices held steady in November, which is actually an improvement over the last couple of months. Prices have dropped sharply over the last year, and retailers have had trouble raising prices because wage growth has been weak.

Groupon was one of the most popular online deals sites when it started in 2008, but rapid expansion and a rushed public stock offering in 2011 caught up to the company. Sales weakened, and its stock price slumped.

Now, the company is working to shore up results. In September, it said it would cut 1,100 jobs and focus on new customer growth and heavier marketing. In November, it named a new CEO, Rich Williams. Last week, Williams named a new chief products officer and a head of operations for North America.

Investors are losing patience, though. Shares fell nearly 7 percent on the first trading day since Friday’s

management shuffle. And they have plunged 63 percent since the beginning of the year.

Analysts say the changes are painful and necessary, and may not pay off for a long, long time.

RBC Capital Markets analyst Mark Mahaney says the company is making some positive moves, like playing down lower-profit goods such

as electronics, but there’s a lot more work to be done on its core e-commerce business.

Wells Fargo analyst Trisha Dill says the company’s strategy of ramping up customer acquisition via heavier marketing might work, but “in our view the stock will tread water for the next 12 months.”

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE:

Edited by Rich Norris and Joyce Nichols Lewis

xwordeditor@aol.com

Dear Annie: Every so often, you print a letter from someone who is con-cerned that a loved one has expressed a desire to commit suicide. Depend-ing on the circumstances, what’s so terrible about that?

When you have lived a full life and are in failing health, ending your life certainly seems to be a reasonable consideration for many. You know you are not going to get better, so why not end your life in the most humane way you can design for yourself?

Dying is the last thing we do, so we may as well make it easy on our-selves. I’m 81 years old, have been married for 50 years, have two dozen grandchildren and great-grandchildren, am in fair health and live comfort-ably. Should those cir-cumstances change for the worse, I know how to end my life successfully. — But Not Just Yet

Dear Not Just Yet: There are already laws in place in three states that permit the terminally ill to has-ten their deaths. If one is not expected to live much longer, and what’s left is mostly painful, we agree that the person should have some control over his or her death.

But too many peo-ple decide on sui-

cide because they are depressed. They aren’t in poor physi-cal health. They aren’t terminally ill. They are in psychological pain and don’t believe life will ever improve. Laws must distin-guish between those who might be helped through counseling or medication, and those whose doctors concur that, medically, there is no future beyond a few months. Anyone who would like ad-ditional information can contact Death With Dignity (death-withdignity.org).

Dear Annie: I am writ-ing in response to “Anony-mous,” who is undergoing chemotherapy and thinks people who want to visit are expecting too much of her to put on makeup, clean her house and shop for refreshments.

Recently, both my hus-band and I were diag-nosed with different forms of cancer. Family and friends visited, brought meals, phoned, emailed, texted and more. Typi-cally, I would do all of the things Anonymous listed

to welcome guests into our home, but it was too much. I determined that I preferred to welcome family and friends rather than push them away. So I might be in nightclothes with no makeup, with my bald head exposed in all its glory. I offered bottled water if I had it.

Having the support and love of family and friends lifted us above and through the diffi cul-ties of our treatments and surgeries. My husband is in remission now, and I begin 33 rounds of ra-diation next week. My advice to those in our cir-cumstances is to consider the benefi ts of allowing caring people into your world when coping with serious health issues. Feeling the love, and let-ting others lift your spirits when you may not have the energy to do so your-self is extremely valuable to recovery. — The More the Merrier

Dear More: No one expects a seriously ill person to look great, have a spotless home and bring refresh-ments as if you are hosting a lightheart-ed get-together. You are wise to see that friends and family simply want to spend time with you and of-fer support. We wish you and your husband complete recoveries.

Abigail Van Buren

Dear Abby

Horoscopes

Watch for the 30-page-plus special holiday edition of the Daily Corinthian coming out on Tuesday, Dec. 15. It will be full of features and columns and plenty of advertising for holiday gift buying

ideas.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian

D E A R ABBY: I made a big m i s t a k e three years ago. When I found out my husband was cheat-ing on me, I became vengeful and sought re-venge. I end-

ed up sleeping with my sister-in-law’s boyfriend to get back at my husband and at her for some things she did in the past. It took my pain away — for a bit.

Abby, I am not this kind of per-son. I’m not an evil, conniving tramp. I regret what I did every day, and I feel like garbage.

My sister-in-law and I haven’t spoken since I decided to tell her the truth. My husband and I (miraculously) were able to work through our problems, and our relationship is stronger than ever. My sister-in-law and her boyfriend have remained together, and I don’t speak to him anymore either.

What can I do to earn forgive-ness? Is this even forgivable? How can I mend this family I helped tear apart? — ONLY HUMAN IN HOUSTON

DEAR ONLY HUMAN: You might start by apologizing to

your sister-in-law for the pain you caused her. But after that, the decision about whether she can forgive you or wants any-thing more to do with you will be up to her.

DEAR ABBY: My grand-daughter, “Becca,” just turned 6. One of her favorite things to do is role-play, which in-cludes the prince (me) kissing her, sometimes at the end of a wedding ceremony. Becca also likes to sit on my lap.

My wife thinks I shouldn’t al-low her to sit there and that the interaction isn’t appropriate. She says I may be mistaken for some kind of predator. It hurts me and Becca when I tell her we must fi nd some other play-time scenario. I think it’s harm-less.

Who’s right here? My wife or me? Is there an age a grand-daughter reaches when this kind of interaction becomes taboo? What about giving her a goodbye kiss when she de-parts? — BAFFLED GRANDPA IN EL PASO

DEAR BAFFLED: Do Becca’s parents agree with your wife? I would be more concerned with whether they consider your playing Prince Charming to be inappropriate. At 6, I see no harm in it. When Becca is 8 or 9, your wife may have a point. Of course, by then she may

prefer to be Supergirl rather than a princess, and have other objectives than being a bride.

As to kissing your grand-daughter hello or goodbye, that’s perfectly appropriate regardless of her age. And when you do, I seriously doubt anyone will mistake you for a predator.

DEAR ABBY: I married the woman of my dreams two months ago.

I asked my father to be my best man and he accepted, but he didn’t fulfi ll his duties. There was no bachelor party, no best man speech, and he and my mother left the reception after only an hour. I was hurt and dis-appointed.

I have avoided talking to him since.

Should I tell him how much he hurt me, or just try to for-give and forget? — LET-DOWN GROOM IN MACON, GA.

DEAR GROOM: I vote for do-ing both, if you can. When your father accepted the invitation, he may not have understood that being your best man would involve more than standing be-side you at the altar.

Why he and your mother would leave the reception ear-ly is puzzling, but it may have meant that for some reason they felt uncomfortable there. You need to explore that.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In Hamlet, Shakespeare suggest-ed that nothing is either good or bad, “but thinking makes it so.” You’ll frame today’s events as neutral or positive and this will considerably reduce your stress level.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Remember when you felt trapped? You freed yourself only to wind up in a similarly restric-tive situation. This time, seek re-form from within. When you feel inwardly free you’ll stop getting into restricting situations.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The past and present do not equal your life. Your dreams for the future are a large part of your personality these days. Share your vision and you’ll learn who is really on your side.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve a very real concern for injustice and stand up for those who are not being treated fairly. Just make sure you have the whole and true story before you begin your defense.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You

berate yourself too much for errors that come with the ter-ritory of being human. You’re doing your very best. Mistakes are normal. Let it go at that. Be-sides, perfection is boring.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It may seem appealing to re-create the passion you once had because you already know the territory. Be honest, though: Has this cycle run its course? Are you just resisting the end because you’re afraid of the un-known?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). While you’re known for indeci-sion, there are some decisions you make practically automati-cally. You know the answer with every fi ber of your being. “He who is fi xed to a star does not change his mind.” -- Leonardo da Vinci

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re once again getting that feeling of being cosmically con-nected, like your parents are the Earth and the sky, your cousins are the animals and your jour-ney is as effortless as an orbit.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Get on your own side. You owe it to the rest of the world to be confi dent and content in whom you are. The one who is friends with his or her own mind will have many friends indeed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s like you’re pressing on the walls and bookshelves searching for the hidden door to the secret chamber where the mystery will fi nally be solved. You will fi nd no hidden door be-cause the hidden door is you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll test and re-test theo-ries. You’ll poke to see where the possible holes in the story are. You want to believe, though you won’t be able to until you’ve put the idea through your judg-mental paces.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Knowing what you want to do for money and doing it well -- it’s not something to be taken light-ly. Many aren’t lucky enough to fall into such a fantastic work groove as the one you’ll hit to-day.

Giving in to vengeance divides woman’s family

The Mississippi Redbirds 9U USS-SA baseball team will be conducting tryouts for the Spring 2016 season on Saturday from10 a.m. to Noon. Based out of Corinth, the Redbirds are coached by Trevor Williams and Sean McGrath. To reserve a tryout slot or for more information, please call (662) 284-6088 or (662) 415-7867.

McNairy County will have fi ve play-ers to participate in the West Tennes-see Football All-Star Game.

There will be four Adamsville play-ers in the game and one player from McNairy Central.

The fourth annual West Tennessee High School Football All-Star game will be played Friday at Liberty High School.

The AHS players are Blake and Dylan Sweat, LaDerrick Means, and Austin Cotner.

McNairy Central’s Taye Crump will also participate in the game.

An oddity in the game is that broth-ers Blake and Dylan were drafted on opposing teams. Blake will be on the South team and Dylan will be playing for the North.

Crump and Means are on the South team with Blake. Cotner will join Dylan on the North squad.

Biggersville’s Cliff Little is offering up his own holiday menu.

BHS will host the 3rd BIGG Christmas Classic on Satur-day, with the nine-game slate beginning bright and early at 8:30 a.m.

“We wanted to give the lo-cal fans something to see that involves local teams,” said Little. “There are some good matchups and hopefully some good games.”

Nine months removed from -- and three months prior -- to the annual Mississippi High School Activities Associations State Basketball Tournament,

Little has fi lled the menu with visitor’s to the Capitol City.

Class 3A runner-up Aber-deen, Final Four participants Corinth and Gentry in 4A and Ashland in 1A, as well as 2015 qualifi ers Baldwyn (2A) and Horn Lake (6A) comprise the boys’ 16-team fi eld.

Holly Springs, which made the 3A event last season, was supposed to face off with tournament regular Boonev-ille, but the Hawks pulled out earlier this week.

“It’s like a Jackson in De-cember event,” said Little, a two-time state champion coach. “Hopefully it will be a good day of basketball.”

Play begins at 8:30 a.m.

with Ripley and Alcorn Cen-tral, the third boys’ and fourth overall county participant in the event. The day will con-clude with Baldwyn and Class 6A Tupelo, set for an 8:30 p.m. tip.

“There’s already been a lot of talk about that game,” said Little.

Game 4 will be an all-Pren-tiss County affair. Booneville will face off with Thrasher, who Little got as a last-sec-ond replacement for Holly Springs.

Little’s Lions will face off with Ashland in the 4 p.m. contest.

“They’re playing really well and have a lot back from last

season,” said Little. “They’ve already beaten Holly Springs and Oxford.”

The Lady Lions will face off with Gentry in the lone girls’ contest of the day. Both the Rams and Lady Rams are making the trek from Indi-anola.

Corinth and Gentry will face off in the 7 p.m. contest. The two have only met one other time -- a 77-68 Corinth win in the opening round of the 2012 North Half Tourna-ment.

Both lost in the Class 4A semifi nals last season, Corinth (25-8) to eventual champion McComb and Gen-try (27-7) to Quitman.

ATLANTA — Each of the four College Football Play-off coaches was asked to talk about his team’s ability to re-cover from a loss.

Only three had an answer.Clemson coach Dabo

Swinney grinned as he was skipped on that question in Thursday’s news conference. Top-ranked Clemson (13-0) stands alone as the only un-

defeated team in the playoff.The Tigers will face Okla-

homa in the Dec. 31 Orange Bowl playoff semifi nal. Lat-er that night, Alabama and Michigan State meet in the Cotton Bowl.

Clemson hasn’t won a na-tional championship since 1981, but now the Tigers have their chance to end the drought.

Swinney was prepared

when asked if the Tigers are ready for the big stage.

“They’re 13-0,” Swinney said. “We played on a big stage all year.”

“It’s been a fun group. They’ve responded to every challenge. If we get beat it won’t be because they got overwhelmed by the big stage,” he said.

The coaches took a break from their recruiting sched-

ules for a news conference at the College Football Hall of Fame before Thursday night’s awards show.

Oklahoma (11-1) has won seven straight since a 24-17 loss to Texas. Michigan State (12-1) won four straight fol-lowing a loss to Nebraska. Alabama (12-1) lost to Missis-sippi in its third game of the

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Base-ball executives headed home Thursday with top free-agent sluggers still on the market and trade talk percolating that could lead to more swaps in coming weeks.

Outfi elder Jason Heyward and fi rst baseman Chris Da-vis fi gure to strike the largest deals among hitters. The top

pitchers already have signed, with David Price getting a $217 million, seven-year con-tract with Boston and Zack Greinke a $206.5 million, six-year deal with Arizona.

“I think the market is wait-ing to see what happens with Jason Heyward,” said Ari-zona general manager Dave Stewart, who fi nalized Grein-ke’s deal and acquired Shelby

Miller during the meetings.Dan Duquette, the Balti-

more Orioles’ executive vice president for baseball opera-tions, thinks it is clear why pitchers were pursued fi rst.

“There’s more teams chas-ing fewer players in that mar-ket. Supply and demand,” he said.

Teams announced 10 trades and 11 free agent sign-

ings at the meetings, and sev-eral more free agents reached agreements that have not yet been announced.

In moves Thursday as peo-ple left, reliever Jonathan Broxton stayed with the St. Louis Cardinals, agreeing to a $7.5 million, two-year con-tract, and reliever Juan Nica-

ATLANTA — Alabama run-ning back Derrick Henry was the biggest star of college football’s awards night, as he won the Maxwell Award, giv-en to the college player of the year, and the Doak Walker Award given to the nation’s top running back.

The awards were presented for the fi rst time at the Col-

lege Football Hall of Fame on Thursday.

Also Thursday, Henry was chosen as the Walter Camp National Player of the Year.

Henry joined Trent Rich-ardson, who won in 2011, as the only Alabama players to win the Doak Walker Award. Some other recent winners include Darren McFadden, Montee Ball and 2014 winner

Melvin Gordon.“This list is legendary,”

Henry said. “I’m just thankful to be a part of it.”

Henry, Stanford’s Chris-tian McCaffrey and Clemson quarterback Deshaun Wat-son were the fi nalists for the Maxwell Award and also are the fi nalists for the Heisman Trophy, to be presented on Saturday.

Watson won the Davey O’Brien Award given to the nation’s top quarterback.

Other award winners Thursday were: Stanford’s Joshua Garnett (Outland Trophy, given to the top inte-rior lineman); Temple’s Tyler Matakevich (Chuck Bednarik Award, given to the nation’s

BURBANK, Calif. — The man guiding the ef-fort to build an NFL sta-dium near Los Angeles for the Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers said Thursday that time is running short to get a deal done for the 2016 season.

Disney CEO Bob Iger told reporters that teams will be unable to move for next season if a decision is not made shortly, since relocation involves enor-mous work, from market-ing tickets to new fans, fi nding temporary playing fi elds and fi nding homes for players and staff.

“There is not much lee-way,” said Iger, who is

serving as non-executive chairman of the joint ven-ture planning the $1.8 bil-lion stadium in the city of Carson. “If the decision is not made soon, neither team will be able to relo-cate” for 2016.

NFL owners plan to meet again next month to consider a possible move to the LA area, which has lacked a team since the Rams and Raiders left af-ter the 1994 season.

Iger said he was confi -dent league owners want to move a team — or teams — to the nation’s second-largest media market, but “whether they get that done on a timely enough basis, I don’t know yet.”

While a growing con-sensus of owners see Los Angeles as a ripe opportu-nity, it unclear what teams might move in, or when. St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is pushing a rival stadium in nearby Inglewood, and he’s also willing to share his pro-posed stadium with either the Chargers or Raiders.

Under current rules, the next opportunity for a team to fi le to relocate would be in January. Any decision to move would have to clear a tangle of league hurdles, including winning the support of at least 24 of the 32 teams.

Iger’s comments, his fi rst in public since tak-

ing the football post, came during a wide-ranging in-terview in which he dis-cussed subjects from the need to touch up the Raid-ers’ rough-edged image to the potential challenges of selling tickets for two teams, simultaneously, to fans in a new market.

Asked about a possible split in the Carson plan that could send a team to Inglewood with the Rams, Iger said the Chargers and Raiders “have a solid part-nership.”

“They are both commit-ted to the partnership,” said Iger, emphasizing he was not speaking on behalf of team owners. “It is their goal to move together.”

season before recovering to win the Southeastern Conference champion-ship.

“They had their backs to the wall early in the season losing a game and they responded time and time again,” Ala-bama coach Nick Saban said.

“The players respond-ed extremely well. We didn’t do anything dif-ferent, but I could tell the players had much more intensity to prove that they were going to do to get better.”

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and Michigan State coach Mark Danto-nio told similar stories of new-found resolve from their players following a loss.

“The message that was sent was this is an op-portunity to grow also,” Dantonio said.

Stoops said he saw an immediate sign in practice that his players wouldn’t let the loss to Texas spoil their season.

“What I noticed im-mediately was as much energy as any practice we had,” Stoops said. “Guys had all kind of energy. You could tell there was a determination they were going to do something about it. There was a de-termination to improve.”

Clemson has won 10

or more games in fi ve straight seasons. The Tigers beat Oklahoma 40-6 in last season’s Russell Athletic Bowl. Clemson beat Ohio State in the Orange Bowl fol-lowing the 2013 season and beat LSU in the Chick-fi l-A Bowl after the 2012 season. The Tigers won the Atlantic Coast Conference cham-pionship in 2011 for the fi rst time since 1991.

Swinney was selected the Home Depot Coach of the Year on Wednes-day. The Tigers will take a 16-game winning streak into the playoff, the nation’s longest ac-tive streak.

Swinney said Clemson deserves its place with the game’s elite teams.

“There’s no question Clemson belongs,” he said. “We’ve been as con-sistent as anybody out there in the county and then you’ve got to step out of your conference and be able to win big games and we’ve done that.”

This year’s bowl trip provides a new chal-lenge. The four teams are playing to advance to the national champion-ship game, but Swinney said he’s still keeping the focus on one game.

“It’s not about plan-ning for another game,” Swinney said. “It’s about winning this game.”

defensive player of the year); UCLA’s Ka’imi Fairbairn (Lou Groza Award for the nation’s top kicker); Iowa’s Des-mond King (Jim Thorpe Award for the nation’s best defensive back); Baylor’s Corey Cole-man (Biletnikoff Award for nation’s outstanding receiver); Utah’s Tom Hackett (Ray Guy Award for nation’s top punter.

Also, former Marine hero Hank Goff of Con-cordia won the Sports Spirit Award. Former Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer won the NCFAA Contribution to College Football Award.

On Wednesday, Clem-son’s Dabo Swinney won the Home Depot Coach of the Year and Hunter Henry of Arkansas won the John Mackey Award for the nation’s out-standing tight end.

Also, Georgia receiver Malcolm Mitchell won the AFCA Good Works Team captain award for his community service and off-fi eld contributions and the Campbell Trophy for academic success was presented to Oklahoma center Ty Darlington.

Henry rushed for 1,986 yards to break Herschel Walker’s Southeastern Confer-ence single-season re-cord and lead Alabama to the College Football Playoff. He ran for 189 yards and was picked as MVP in Alabama’s SEC

championship game win over Florida.

Henry is considered the Heisman favorite. Mark Ingram of Ala-bama in 2009 was the last running back — and only Crimson Tide play-er — to win the Heisman.

Henry said his focus is on helping Alabama win the national cham-pionship. A spot in the national championship game will be on the line when Alabama plays Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl on Dec. 31.

Alabama lost to Ohio State in last year’s play-off semifi nal in the Sugar Bowl.

“That taste from last year is still in my mouth,” Henry said. “That one really bothered us.”

Henry said having to face Alabama’s “relent-less” defense helped him have success against oth-er teams.

“Every day it’s a chal-lenge going up against them,” he said.

Swinney said he is glad Watson is only a sopho-more.

Swinney said Watson was a “very deserving” Davey O’Brien winner.

“I think they got it right,” Swinney said. “He’s special in every re-gard. ... He’s more than just a great football play-er. He’s a great young man. This is just the beginning for him. An incredibly bright future. I’m glad we’ve got him back for at least another year.”

sio agreed to a deal with Pittsburgh, one week after he was cut by the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Reliever Tony Sipp stayed with the Hous-ton Astros for an $18 million, three-year contact and fi rst baseman Mark Reynolds accepted a $2.6 million, one-year contract with the Colorado Rockies. Those two deals were disclosed by a person familiar with each negotiation who spoke on condition of anonymity because no announcement was made.

Former All-Star reliever Joakim Soria fi -nalized his $25 million, three-year contract to return to the Kansas City Royals.

And there were a pair of trades announced late in the day. The Los Angeles Angels ac-quired infi elder Yunel Escobar from the Washington Nationals for right-handers Trevor Gott and Michael Brady. And the Atlanta Braves dealt 24-year-old catcher Christian Bethancourt to the San Diego Pa-dres for right-hander Casey Kelly and minor league catcher Ricardo Rodriguez.

BASEBALL

CONTINUED FROM 11A

ATLANTA — The Atlan-ta Braves have dealt away young catcher Christian Bethancourt after a disap-pointing season in which he failed to take advantage of his chance to take over the starting job.

Once hyped as the catcher of the future, the 24-year-old Bethancourt was dealt to the San Diego Padres on Thursday for right-handed pitcher Casey Kelly and mi-nor league catcher Ricardo Rodriguez.

Bethancourt began the 2015 season as the No. 1 catcher but got off to a ter-rible start and wound being demoted to the minors. He returned late in the season, batting .200 with two hom-

ers and 12 RBIs.When the Braves re-signed

38-year-old A.J. Pierzynski and agreed to a deal this week with catcher Tyler Flowers, it was clear that Bethancourt’s days in Atlanta were num-bered.

Kelly adds to the surplus of young pitchers the Braves have stockpiled while under-going a major overhaul. A former fi rst-round pick who had Tommy John surgery before the 2013 season, he spent most of this past year with San Diego’s Triple-A and Double-A affi liates, combining to go 2-10 with a 5.16 ERA.

The 26-year-old Kelly is 2-5 with a 6.69 ERA in nine big league appearances.

Rodriguez is only 17.

W i t h Christmas d r a w i n g near, it’s n a t u r a l that the birth of Je-sus should take center stage.

E v e r since I

was a child, I have been completely awed by the Christmas carols and songs describing Jesus’ birth. Regardless of how many times I hear them, I’m still amazed and many times am brought to tears.

As I’ve grown older, I sometimes am even more overwhelmed when I think about the almost unbelievable reality that God, who created the world and established “time” itself, cared about His creation so much that He placed His only Son in the womb of a young girl to be born in a stable – all to show us the nature of Himself and redeem hu-manity.

The above statement may be a “run-on sen-tence,” but so much more could be added to it and still never fully explain how or why He would show us so much love.

In a devotional I read by Max Lucado, he com-pared Jesus leaving the celestial beauty of Heaven to come to places like feed troughs, carpentry shops, and cemeteries to one of us leaving a comfortable home with tasty food to go out and live in a tree as a bushy-tailed squirrel and settle in to a diet of nuts

and a bed of sticks and leaves. None of us would be willing to do that.

A friend of mine went through a very rough time where she was so very disappointed in the way some things had gone in her life. She told me she was so tired of “being mad” that she fi nally just dropped the burden and determined to forget it, become somewhat numb, and go on until somehow things might change and God could restore her joy.

When I think about God’s plan in sending Jesus, maybe He was so tired of “being mad” about the way His cre-ated beings were acting, He decided to fi x it once and for all. Words in the song “In Christ Alone” re-mind us that on the cross as Jesus died, the wrath of God was satisfi ed – the Father could fi nally lay down His wrath and judgment as Jesus took all our sins upon Himself and suffered our punish-ment. The ultimate price was paid once and for all and now we can live in freedom and grace. How amazing is that!

Now I know that the prophecies in the Old Testament foretold the coming of the Messiah in God’s amazing plan, but in the thousands of years before Jesus’ birth, the Father surely must have grown weary and tired of all the failures of mankind. The misun-derstandings and jealou-sies that caused pain and death must have hurt the heart of God beyond what we can ever imagine.

Between the years of Old Testament history and the good news of the New Testament, it seems the Father remained quite silent for 400 years, tak-ing a long, deep breath to enjoy fellowship with His Son before putting into motion the perfect plan for our eternal redemp-tion.

In bringing hope to us, we know He could have sent Jesus as a champion prince to rule on an earth-ly throne and redeem His people, but instead the plan was for a baby to be born in humble sur-roundings and grow up as a common servant boy and experience the things everyday people experi-ence. Sometimes He was happy, sometimes sad; sometimes He hurt and was hurt by others; some-times He laughed hysteri-cally, sometimes He cried.

… So I’m thankful today that God didn’t just tell us in Old Testament scrip-tures what He was like and how we should live but instead He sent Jesus to live in physical form the love of God and set an example for us to follow.

Stories can be told and thousands of songs can be written, but our human, fi nite minds cannot truly comprehend and explain something so amazing as the Gift that was given when a baby was born in Bethlehem to begin the process of eternal deliver-ance for mankind.

I’m still in awe of it all!(Wenasoga resident

The birth of baby Jesusshould take center stage

Lora Ann Huff

Back Porch

Driving t h r o u g h the coun-try the o t h e r day I no-ticed the words on a church’s front yard sign. It read, “You

will never get ahead of someone you are trying to get even with.”

I thought to myself, what a tremendous truth in these words.

So many of us go through life trying to be better than our neighbor or outdo someone in any-thing we try. It is human nature to be competitive in one form or another. Competitiveness is good when used in the correct form and not used in an-other person’s demise.

I remember growing up that I wanted to be the best at whatever I at-tempted. In sports I usu-ally was one of the better players however when I came across someone that was better than me, I would slack up in my competitiveness or either drop out. I though the entire world knew I was the best and it should be evident to anyone I com-peted with and it was a given that I would be on top. It didn’t take me long to fi nd out the world didn’t work this way and that I wasn’t the only one competing.

Many of us have found our self in similar situa-tions when dealing with people, whether it is in business transactions or just friendly competi-

tions. If we lose or feel we have been done wrong we sometimes go into a pattern of indecision or something even worse called holding a grudge. Holding a grudge against someone will only hurt you. Trying to get even or upstage someone that has done something to you or beat you in some type transaction will only keep you from doing the best you can in anything that you attempt.

Many times we spend more time trying to get even with someone and allow many opportuni-ties of growth to pass us by. This is also time that we have lost and can never get back. Our prosperity relies on our attitude and desire to move forward instead

of laterally toward what someone else is doing. We need to remember that we should forgive and forget.

All of us need to do the best we can at anything we try. If someone cre-ates a problem for us we need to handle the problem or go around it. It should never get us into turmoil and keep us from looking ahead. There are always going to be someone who is go-ing to try and ruin you or keep you from achiev-ing your goal. When this happens remember what Paul said in Romans 12:17; “Do not repay any-one evil for evil. Be care-ful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.”

When we have been offended or mistreated by someone, go to that person and try to make amends, however do not try and get even with them for their foolish-ness.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for the time we have on this earth. Let us use this time to praise you and get along with our fellowman. Amen.

Daily Corinthian • Friday, December 11, 2015 • 1C

The art gallery is add-ing the words, painting and knit works of former Corinthian Kathy Bryant-Williams to its expanded December collection.

“We’ve never had such an eclectic group of work in the gallery for Christ-mas,” said Sonny Boat-man, the artist guild pres-ident.

On Saturday, Bryant-Williams will be at the gallery from 1 to 3 p.m. to sign copies of her sec-ond novel, “All Things Work Together Book II.” It continues the story of a quirky and candid hero-ine — a 30-something, twice-divorced single mother looking for a so-cial life while working at low-paid nursing jobs.

“I want them to laugh, cry and feel the pain and triumphs the protagonist feels,” said Bryant-Wil-liams, “as she learns to put God and his kingdom fi rst. She learns in doing this that all things she

needs will be added in her life.”

Readers might fi nd shades of life in a town such as Corinth in the book, which is subtitled, “Even If You Were Crazy and You Didn’t Care.”

Now a resident of Oak-land, Tenn., she is also ex-hibiting a number of oil on canvas paintings includ-ing scenes from Italy and a large interpretation of the Grand Canyon. She is also showing a number of knit afghans and Nativity scenes with clay fi gurines.

“Her creativity seems to know no bounds,” said Boatman. “Her paint-ings have been shown at the Delta Fair, our gal-lery and some galleries in Memphis. Only one of these paintings have been shown here before.”

He sees a “poetic re-alism” in some of the scenes.

Her works will be on display and the books available through Decem-ber.

With lots of new items

added to the gallery for the holiday period, Boat-man hopes people will

keep it in mind while gift shopping. Items from Joe McKewen’s photo studio

also continue to be avail-able through December.

Gallery hours at 609

North Fillmore are Tues-day through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Alongside Kathy Bryant-Williams’ oil painting of an Italian villa, gallery volunteer Hannah Cranford shows one of the knit items displayed by Bryant-Williams.

Administering a dose of holi-day cheer, Noyes Family Care Center in Corinth is preparing to hold their 7th Annual Santa Day.

Slated for Thursday, Dec. 17 from 3:30 to 5 p.m., the event will feature yule-tide refresh-ments, sparkling decorations and a special visit from Santa himself.

“In addition to complimen-tary juice and cookies, those on the ‘nice list’ will have the opportunity to have their pic-tures taken with Santa and tell him their Christmas wishes,” said Practice Manager Heather Moore, who looks forward to the festivities at the clinic every year. “It is going to be a lot of fun.”

Those wishing to stick around after their pictures are taken will get to hear a special Christ-mas story from jolly St. Nick.

“We try and do something special to help those in our

community every year and Santa Day is a great way to do that because parents can bring their children in for free pic-tures,” said an excited Moore. “I usually take them, have them printed off and then mail them out to everyone within the next few days.”

A cherished tradition, all are welcome to come out for food, fellowship and joy-fi lled activi-ties.

(Noyes Family Care Center is located at 2000 East Shiloh Road in Corinth. For more in-formation contact the center at 662-287-6999.)
