The Jeff Davis Parish (JDP) Police Jury has offi-cially acquired the 17 acres of land along U.S. 90 that will serve as the site of a new 200-bed jail.

Police Jury President Donald Woods and the landowner met Friday morning with attorneys to sign the necessary paper-work. Officials announced the land, located just west of the U.S. 90 overpass in Jennings, was chosen for the jail location in late April. A week later, 72 per-cent of voters cast ballots in favor of a 10-year, half-cent sales tax that will fund the annual operations and maintenance of the new jail. The tax, which started showing up on custom-ers’ receipts this month, is expect to generate over $2 million annually.

Woods explained Friday

that the reason the parish is just now acquiring the land is because the state required an environmental study be performed at the site. The state provided $10 million in Capital Outlay funds for the purchase of the land, as well as construction of the facility. The land cost $272,320.

“It’s a great feeling to get past this point,” Woods said. “It’s one more step to getting this project fin-ished.”

The next step will be clearing trees and brush from about 14 of the 17 acres.

“There are a few acres already cleared but now we need to work on the rest before we can break ground,” Woods explained.

After that, the building site would be elevated and construction underway.

The site is just west of the abandoned Angelle

Two teenagers were arrested Wednesday after one sent a text message to a cell phone pitching a mari-juana deal - a text that was intercepted by deputies who happened to be executing a search warrant at the home where the cell phone was located.

Jeff Davis Sheriff’s Department Criminal Investigations Division Commander Chris Ivey said detectives were executing a search warrant in Roanoke

at 209 Fifth Street when one investigator discovered the phone. The phone displayed a text message asking if any “hydro”, or hydroponic mar-ijuana, was needed.

Detectives answered the text message and arranged to purchase a quarter ounce of marijuana for a price of $150.

Ivey said detectives then went to WalMart in Jennings, where they had

A simple traffic stop on South Main Street early Friday morning led to the arrest of a long-lost fugi-tive, Leo Max Williams of Jennings. The driver of the vehicle was pulled over for a traffic violation, but when the four suspects inside rolled down their windows to speak to police, marijuana smoke emitted from the vehicle.

“At that time, the officer called for backup,” explained Jennings Police Department (JPD) Deputy Chief Danny Semmes. “Field interviews were conducted with the two males and two females inside the vehicle, and during that time, one male subject fled on foot.”

The suspect led police on a foot chase through the neigh-borhood, but he was apprehended underneath a carport with-out further incident.

“The suspect was brought to the police station and gave a false name of Babineaux,” Semmes said. “But one of our jail-ers recognized him to be Leo Max Williams, who has been a

piderman!S Traffic was backed up both ways on Interstate 10 Friday evening between the Jennings and Iota exits after rainfall caused a couple of accidents. No one was seriously injured as a result of the crashes, but authorities remind motorists to exercise caution when traveling on wet road-ways. Scattered summer thunderstorms are expected throughout the week, with rain chances between 40 and 20 percent from now until next weekend.

BATON ROUGE (AP) - Republican U.S. Sen. David Vitter offered definitive support Friday for the Common Core education standards, a position that puts him at odds with Gov. Bobby Jindal but that could bolster business community backing as the senator fundraises for the 2015 governor’s race.

“I support the strong standards Louisiana now has in place and think Gov. Jindal’s attempt to start from scratch right before the new school year is very disruptive,” the senator said in a statement to

Richard Ivy IstreJanuary 26, 1926 – July 20, 2014

Richard was born on Jan. 26, 1926, in Jennings to Ivy and Betty Istre. Richard lived in Jennings and after high school, enlisted in the Navy.

He attended Kingspoint Merchant Marine Academy and graduated with an engi-neering/business degree. He retired from the Naval Reserve as Lt. Commander. Richard married Margie Broussard in May of 1946. After the war, Richard worked as an instrument engineer for Cities Service (Citgo) and Continental Carbon in Lake Charles. They moved to Mesquite, Texas, in 1997. After Margie’s death, Richard and Patsy had been happily married for seven years.

Richard loved music, from playing the trombone in high school to singing hymns in church, music filled his soul. Family was everything to him. With the marriage to Patsy, “Paw” enjoyed a large extended family. He loved his family and his “new” family.

Memorial services were held in Richard’s home church, Centerpoint Church, at 1355 E. Kerney St., in Mesquite, Texas. Burial was held at D/FW National Military Cemetery in Dallas, Texas.

arranged to meet the suspect. Detectives placed unmarked units in the parking lot and waited for the suspect, who soon arrived. The suspect then sent a text message to detectives to meet at a nearby gas pump at Murphy USA, within the same parking lot.

Detectives approached a vehicle with two occupants and asked them to exit the vehicle. Ivey said two large bags of marijuana were spot-ted in the vehicle, including one on the driver’s seat and one on the passenger side floorboard. Detectives also located a digital scale during the search.

Both suspects, Mister Sekoy Castile Jr., 18, of West Division Street in Jennings, and Kayn Jontae Deshotel, 17, of Craig Street in Jennings, were booked into the parish jail on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and pos-session of drug paraphernalia.

Meanwhile, Ivey said, no one was at the Roanoke residence at the time of the search. Eighty-two packages of synthetic marijuana, con-taining approximately 1,000 grams, were located in the home. The commander said arrests are pending in that case.

ATLANTA (AP) — An American doctor infect-ed with the Ebola virus in Africa arrived in Atlanta for treatment Saturday, landing in a specially equipped plane at a military base, then being whisked away to one of the most sophisticated hospital isolation units in the country, officials say.

It marks the first time any-one infected with incurable Ebola, considered one of the world’s deadliest diseases, has been brought into the country. A second American aid worker infected with the virus was expected to arrive at the hospital within a cou-ple days. U.S. officials are confident the patients can be treated without putting the public in danger.

The private plane outfit-ted with a special, portable tent designed for transport-ing patients with highly infectious diseases arrived late morning at Dobbins Air Reserve Base, spokes-man Lt. Col. James Wilson confirmed. U.S.-based Samaritan’s Purse mis-sionary group, which paid for the transport, told The Associated Press that Dr. Kent Brantly is the patient.

An ambulance from

Atlanta’s Grady Memorial Hospital left the base in Marietta, Georgia, shortly after the Gulfstream landed and drove the 15 miles or so toward Emory University Hospital where Brantly and another aid worker will be treated.

The ambulance with red markings was under light security, flanked by a few SUVs and a police car for the short trip to the hospital along a wide-open Interstate with no traffic.

Once at the hospital, one person in white protective clothing from head to toe climbed down from the back of the ambulance and a second person in the same type of hazmat-looking suit

appeared to take his gloved hands and guide him toward a building at Emory. The hospital is locat-ed just down a hill from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The second patient, Nancy Writebol, will be brought from Africa soon, the hos-pital has said. The two seriously ill Americans worked for North Carolina-

based Samaritan’s Purse and U.S.-based SIM at a Liberian hospital that treated Ebola patients. Liberia is one of the three West Africa countries hit by the largest Ebola out-break in history.

Dr. Jay Varkey, an infec-tious disease specialist at Emory who will be involved in Brantly’s care, said the hospital’s isolation unit is well-equipped to handle patients with diseases that are even more infectious than Ebola.

The unit was used for treating at least one SARS patient in 2005. Unlike Ebola, SARS — like the flu — is an airborne virus and can spread easily when

US doctor with Ebola in Atlanta for treatment

an infected person coughs or sneezes. Health experts say a specialized isolation unit is not needed for treating an Ebola patient. Standard rigorous infection control measures should work at any hospital.

“Ebola is only transmit-ted through blood and bodily fluids,” he said. “Unlike the flu, like influenza, which we deal with every winter, Ebola cannot be spread through the air.”

Ebola begins with fever, headache and weakness and can escalate to vomiting, diarrhea and kidney and liver problems. In some cases, patients bleed both internally and externally.

Dr. Philip Brachman, an Emory University pub-lic health specialist who for many years headed the CDC’s disease detectives program, said Friday that since there is no cure, medi-cal workers will try any mod-ern therapy that can be done, such as better monitoring of fluids, electrolytes and vital signs.

“E bola is only transmitted through

blood and bodilyfluids.... it cannot

be spread through the air.”

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Two charcoal-colored cownose rays glided by inches away.

A lookdown, a transparent silver fish, stared back with dark, eerie eyes.

Nearby, a spiny Caribbean lobster tiptoe along a multicolored reef.

And a scarlet-peppered graysby — a type of grouper — lingered in the depths while swirls of yellowtail snapper rushed by, pay-ing little notice to the nearby swimmer.

The underwater tableau seemed remote and exotic. In fact, it was inside the Great Maya Reef exhibit at the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas, where those with an adven-turous spirit can snorkel or scuba dive along-side wildlife, as I did.

The reef, a 30-foot tunnel with 4,200 square feet of aquatic action, was completed in March at the cost of $1 million. It inter-weaves Maya culture with creatures of the Caribbean.

The diving program, which kicked off in July, is an effort by the aquarium to offer a premium, interactive experience to its patrons.

“We want to immerse dive participants in the underwater world while offering an in-depth understanding of the exotic animals that thrive near one of the world’s largest

reefs,” said Audubon Aquarium dive team coordinator Desiree Bell.

Bell said about 60 volunteer divers, who help out with cleaning tanks and feeding animals, have been able to swim in the aquarium’s exhibits for more than 20 years. The staff wanted to extend that opportunity to visitors, she said.

The program is offered on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Those who are 10 and older and certified can scuba dive in the giant tank, while anyone 8 or older can snorkel.

The cost is $250 for the scuba experi-ence and $175 for snorkeling, with all gear provided.

When I showed up at the aquarium, there was a locker with my name on it, with a wet suit, snorkel, gloves and fins inside.

Dive program coordinator Matt Holcomb prefaced our expedition with a brief informa-tional talk about the wildlife I would encoun-ter and the construction of the reef.

According to Holcomb, the reef is built to mirror the Great Maya Reef, which extends from the tip of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula south to Honduras Bay.

He explained the ecological importance of coral reefs and how the delicate habitats can be easily damaged by human interaction.

CHICAGO (AP) — John Trinca couldn’t remem-ber the name of the soldier who died right next to him minutes after they met dur-ing World War II, and all Thomas Bateman Jr. knew of his father’s death was that it happened in 1945 in the Philippines.

The two will meet for the first time today, Sunday, thanks largely to Tom McAvoy, who made good on a quest to return a lost war medal he found as a child in Chicago that only had the recipient’s engraved name as a clue: Thomas Bateman.

This year — 69 years after a bullet from a Japanese machine gun killed

Slain soldier’s son to get lost medal, answersPvt. Thomas Bateman — their stories intersected for the first time, giving them answers to questions that tugged at them for years. At this weekend’s ceremony, the slain soldier’s son will receive the lost Purple Heart his father paid for with his life.

“I had a newspaper article that my grandmother kept that said he was killed and that’s about all I knew,” said Bateman, 69, who was just shy of his first birthday

when his father was killed.The men learned of one

another thanks to Purple Hearts Reunited, a founda-tion that works to return the medals to their recipients or their recipients’ families. Zachariah Fike, a Vermont National Guard captain who was awarded the medal after he was wounded in Afghanistan in 2010, has managed to reunite about 100 Purple Hearts with their rightful owners since start-ing the foundation.

“Newsmakers,” set to air Sunday.

He said to ensure proper implementation of Common Core, the state must make sure teachers are properly prepared to use the standards and must retain local control of curriculum.

“I would take an aggres-sive, hands-on approach (to) get curriculum and imple-mentation right. I’d ensure the state and locals maintain complete control over cur-riculum, lesson plans and reading lists and make good decisions on those. And I’d demand effective plan-ning and preparation with parents, school boards and teachers,” Vitter said in his statement to AP.

The comments were the first time Vitter took a posi-tion on the standards.

His backing of Common Core also comes as Jindal is taking steps to undermine the standards and remove them from Louisiana class-rooms, in a dispute with edu-cation leaders that’s headed to court.

Jindal, a one-time Common Core supporter, now opposes the standards as a federal intrusion into local education. He’s sus-pended state testing con-tracts that were to be used to buy testing material aligned with Common Core, to dis-rupt use of the standards.

The governor’s actions have erupted into a public feud with Louisiana’s edu-cation leaders. Education

Superintendent John White and officers of the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education, or BESE, still support Common Core and accuse Jindal of overreach-ing his authority.

Lawmakers also have refused to strip Common Core from public school classrooms, and the state’s powerful business organiza-tions continue to push the multi-state standards as a way to better prepare stu-dents for college and careers after high school.

Two lawsuits have been filed in the dispute, with BESE joining one that accuses Jindal of violating the state constitution in his actions against the standards.

Vitter faces two com-petitors so far in the gov-ernor’s race: Republican Lt. Gov. Jay Dardenne and Democratic state Rep. John Bel Edwards.

Dardenne repeated his support Friday for the Common Core and took issue with Jindal’s tac-tics, saying the Legislature and BESE have chosen Louisiana’s education stan-dards and the governor doesn’t have the legal ability to sidestep that.

Edwards recently said he doesn’t necessarily oppose Common Core, but wants a Louisiana-based group of educators and parents to review the individual stan-dards and determine wheth-er to keep, reject or modify them.

fugitive for the last few months.”In early June, Jennings police exe-

cuted a search warrant at Williams’ 618 Gallup Street residence and found a Crown Royal bag containing one ounce of powder cocaine, as well as two pill bottles containing 72 rocks of crack cocaine worth approximately $3,000. Williams was not home at the time of the search, but his wife, Shaneka Williams, was booked into the parish jail on the drug charges. She was found in the living room with four children and was rolling a blunt when officers entered the residence.

Also in April, city police executed a search warrant at the Williams’ pre-vious residence located at 122 Shine Alley in Jennings and found three suspects inside the home, including

Shaneka Williams, Stacey Williams and Loney Simon.

Nine bags of marijuana, as well as a large bag of marijuana in the liv-ing room, were found, plus numerous pieces of suspected crack cocaine in one bedroom. Near the television on a dresser, police also found six pieces of suspected crack cocaine cookies – over an ounce and a half.

Also inside a junk vehicle parked outside of the residence, police located four more large bags of marijuana and a digital scale.

In all, police seized approximate-ly $6,000 worth of illegal narcotics stashed inside the home and on the property.

Simon was arrested with posses-sion with intent to distribute Schedule

I narcotics, while Shaneka Williams, who was later identified as the owner of the residence, was arrested for pos-session of Schedule I and Schedule II controlled dangerous substances with intent to distribute. Stacey Williams was released on a summons.

Leo Williams was identified as a sus-pect in that case as well, as his inmate identification card was found near the crack cocaine.

Semmes said Leo Williams has since been charged with resisting arrest by flight, giving false information at book-ing, possession of a controlled danger-ous substance and parole violations.

Meanwhile, a small amount of mari-juana was found in the suspects’ vehicle on Friday. The driver of the vehicle was issued a citation and released.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — Tropical Storm Bertha pushed just south of Puerto Rico on Saturday as it unleashed heavy rains and strong winds across the region, knocking out power on some islands in the eastern Caribbean.

The storm’s maximum sustained winds held at 50 mph (85 kph), and slow strengthening was expected by Sunday night. Bertha was centered about 110 miles (175 kilometers) west-southwest of San Juan, Puerto Rico and was moving west-northwest at 22 mph (35 kph) Saturday afternoon.

The storm was expected to pass near southwest Puerto Rico and possibly over the eastern Dominican Republic on Saturday night. As much as 3 to 5 inches (8-13 centimeters) of rain was forecast for Puerto Rico, with isolated amounts of up to 8 inches (20 centimeters), with the heaviest rain likely in the island’s eastern and southern regions.

Gov. Alejandro Garcia Padilla warned of flooding, land-slides and swollen rivers, which he urged people not to try and cross.

“It’s something that sounds obvious but it happens so often,” he said. “It’s not the time to take risks.”

Police said a man is recovering after lightning struck next to him as he emerged from a tent in the northeast coastal town of Luquillo. Garcia initially had said the man was a surfer.

Authorities also reported several downed trees across the island’s eastern region and two downed electrical posts. Some 9,000 people were without power and more than 1,300 without water. The lights also went out at the island’s emergency management agency during a press conference Saturday morning.

Officials said some 180 people remained at a shelter in the southeast coastal town of Arroyo, the majority of them athletes participating in a youth baseball tournament.

Ingrid Vila, gubernatorial chief of staff, said Puerto Rico’s main international airport remained open but that several flights have been cancelled.

U.S. employers extended their solid hir-ing into July by adding 209,000 jobs. It was the sixth straight month of job growth above 200,000, evidence that businesses are gradu-ally shedding the caution that had marked the five-year-old recovery.

July’s gain was less than in the previous three months, though, and probably wasn’t strong enough to intensify fears that the Federal Reserve will soon raise interest rates to curb inflation, according to the Associated Press.

But the Labor Department’s monthly jobs report Friday pointed to an economy that has bounced back with force after a grim start to the year and is expected to sustain its strength into 2015. Along with the con-sistent job growth, consumer spending is ris-ing, manufacturing is strengthening and auto sales are up.

The unemployment rate ticked up in July to 6.2 percent from 6.1 percent as more Americans started looking for work. Most didn’t find jobs, but the increase suggests that they’re more optimistic about their prospects. The jobless aren’t counted as unemployed unless they’re actively seeking work.

Average job gains over the past six months reached 244,000 in July, the best such month-ly average in eight years.

The pickup in hiring has yet to translate, however, into larger paychecks for most Americans, a factor that has hobbled the recovery. In July, average hourly earnings ticked up just a penny to $24.45. That’s just 2 percent higher than it was 12 months earlier and is slightly below current inflation of 2.1 percent. In a healthy economy, wages before inflation would rise 3.5 percent to 4 percent annually.

The proportion of working-age adults who either have a job or are looking for one rose slightly in July from a 35-year low to 62.9 per-cent. It was the first increase in four months.

Weak pay gains are restraining the housing market, usually a key driver of growth. A mea-sure of signed contracts to buy homes slipped in June, the National Association of Realtors said this week.

Pay has failed to accelerate in part because many Americans are still uncertain about the economy’s long-term health, said Mike Schenk, a senior economist at the Credit Union National Association.

Schenk expects wages to pick up once the unemployment rate falls to around 5.5 percent — a level at which some businesses will have to increase pay to keep workers and some employees will be more confident ask-ing for a raise.

Still, Friday’s report echoes other data that point to an improving economy. Growth accelerated during the April-June quarter, the government said Wednesday, after contract-ing sharply in the first three months of the year. Last quarter’s rebound assuaged fears that growth was too weak to support this year’s rapid hiring.

And on Friday, the government said con-sumer spending and income picked up in June. A separate report showed that man-ufacturing expanded in July at the fastest pace in more than three years as new orders surged, production rose and factories ramped up hiring.

Investors remain wary, though, about whether the broad economic improvements will lead the Fed to raise its benchmark short-term rate sooner than expected. Such fears likely contributed to Thursday’s 317-point plunge in the Dow Jones industrial average — its worst day since February. Most economists still think the Fed will start raising rates around mid-2015, though some foresee an increase earlier in the year.

In addition to reporting July’s solid gain, the government on Friday revised up its esti-mate of job growth in May and June by a combined 15,000.

Higher-paying jobs showed broad increas-es in July. Manufacturing added 28,000 jobs, the most in eight months. Construction added 22,000 and financial services 7,000, its fourth straight gain.

In the April-June quarter, the economy expanded at a seasonally adjusted 4 percent annual rate after a steep 2.1 percent contrac-tion in the first quarter that was due largely to a brutal winter. Last quarter, Americans stepped up their spending, particularly on autos, furniture and other big-ticket items. Businesses also spent more on plants, office buildings and equipment.

Americans are also gradually gaining con-fidence in the economy, which means spend-ing could accelerate in coming months. The Conference Board’s consumer confidence index jumped to its highest level in nearly seven years in July.

You may not know it but there is a popular saying regarding run-

ners: “I don’t trust them; they are always the one to find bod-ies.”

If you have ever watched an episode of any “Law and Order” series where a victim or corpse was discovered in a park, you know this to be true.

Runners are an odd breed. Watch them for yourself and you will see they are running neither to or from anything.

My cousin, whom I shall refer to as Ralph, is an avid run-ner. A dedicated runner.

She’s a crazy runner. She runs, like, 93 marathons a year. I don’t even know if she bothers with 5k races or half-marathons anymore. In fact, I recently learned she had signed up for her first “ultra marathon” – 50 miles of running.

“So, when will you move on to triathlons?” I asked, some-what sarcasti-cally.

Of course, Ralph didn’t really surprise me when she said, “I start training for that after the ultra marathon.”

Now, kudos to anyone who runs not because they are being chased by a cop, but because they want to (or have no vehi-cle.) There are a lot of things I have done in the name of fitness but running has never appealed to me. It is one area where I refuse to challenge myself and, quite honestly, I’m okay with that. I have complete confidence that on my deathbed, I will not regret sitting out a marathon that

ended in blisters, shin splints, vomiting, bro-ken bones or fainting.

But runners are addicted. Daily I hear from friends who are “so invigorated” by the five miles

they ran during their 103-degree lunch break at the park.

“Well, you look like death,” I said to one recently.

“But I feel soooo good on the inside,” she said, gasping desperately for air.

“But you look horrible on the outside. Seriously. Do you need to go to the hospital?”

Ralph has a tough time beat-ing the heat sometimes, too. She usually runs in downtown Jennings and if I happen to be driving on the same street she

is on, she will fling her arms around and run into traffic to get me to stop.

“Do.....you...h-h....have some water?” she will ask.

Sometimes I do. Sometimes I just pray for her.

I try to help other runners, too, by not running them over – because they are often running in the street, as though nowhere in the City of Jennings can a sidewalk, park or high school track be found.

“Better move it, Pink Spandex,” I mumbled recently while heading to work. A run-ner was pretty much in the mid-dle of the road, chasing down that runner’s high. “I’ll bump you out of my way like this is Mario Kart.”

I’m just joking. I would never purposely injure a runner.

Unless I was forced to run. Then I would injure myself.

Where are you going in such a hurry?

LETTERS TO THE EDITORPresident Creates

Overseas ProblemsDear Editor,Can you imagine an alleged

Vietnam turncoat traveling over-seas to Cairo in order to try a cease fire in war with Israel.

You don’t think that these people are stupid and don’t real-ize his real intentions.

Is this a part of our admin-istration that is confused over things of lesser value?

They can’t or don’t wish to control our border or what to do with additional guests that have crept or swum in.

Anything that walks, talks, or is not of Chicago value is con-fusing to cement walkers in D.C. that descended here also.

Confusion is part of their trade as they complicate ordinary rules of regulations that would impact a ping pong game.

Giving the appearance of a democrat is to enhance one’s chance to cross over and those will be courted on to later vote

the same.This president creates prob-

lems with other countries, then accuses Republicans to solve these problems that are unfore-seen and just happened natu-rally?

Dick WaltripMermentau

IRS Evasive During Investigation

Dear Editor,Let us assume that the IRS

has “found” some backups that might include Lois Lerner’s missing emails.

Given how incredibly dis-honest and evasive the IRS has been during this investigation and, by extension, how dishon-est the Injustice Dept. and the administration has been, how can anyone presume that the newly discovered backups are complete? That they have not been tampered with deleting any emails or references that might

compromise either Lerner or anyone else?

I sincerely hope that all of the missing emails have been found and that they are complete and unaltered. That the whole truth will become clear and every-one can be satisfied. But given what has transpired thus far, how badly this entire matter has stunk right from the outset including Lerner’s refusal to testify, how can we ever be sure?

Add that as bad as the IRS looks right now, they have through Obamacare been given a great deal of control over our healthcare. Could the allocation of health insurance subsidies become another political tool for the IRS against the people?

We have reached a point that we can no longer trust our own government on anything nor can we trust the mainstream media to report the truth. And that is the scariest thing of all. The IRS can be fixed, but restoring trust in our government will be infinitely

more difficult.Wayne PeterkinEvangeline

Another Local Talks Sugar Mill

Dear Editor,Well, I almost wrote a week

ago regarding the front page news of the Lacassine sugar mill, but I waited until I saw Mr. Semmes ‘Letter to the Editor’ today. I definitely agree with him and could say ‘I told you so!’ There were many who dis-agreed with Mr. Odom’s choic-es in those times but for some reason, the voters said ‘OK’. Perhaps not enough voters here in Jeff Davis Parish allowed a ‘minority’ or ‘very ambitious few’ to prevail.

Anyway, ALL of us now have a $71 MILLION debt to pay. Be careful of your next vote without researching the question.

Chalk TalkPrimed for a big year?

I’m not going to hide from this any longer. There’s something that

you should know about me. I’m not proud of it - not happy about it. I don’t know why the good Lord made me this way. Often times I curse this affliction of mine, especially during November and December. Well, here it goes: I am a Dallas Cowboys fan.

I know. It’s shocking to me, too. I don’t recall when I first saw stars in my eyes. Perhaps it was when I was child and my mom first bought me that baby Troy

Aikman jer-sey. As a fan of America’s Team, I’ve had to deal with a lot of non-sense over the years. However, a stunt this week may just take the cake. The Cowboys, in a move I can only call brave, sent all of their season ticket holders playoff tickets, not only for the regular season, but the playoffs as well - through the NFC Championship game to be exact. I wish I was kid-

ding, but I’m not.

W h y Jerry? Why must you dangle that bone in front of this r a v e n o u s

dog, only to keep the string just out of my reach? Whose bright idea was it to make fans pay for tickets to a game the Cowboys haven’t played in since 1995? So many unanswered questions. I shall not sleep tonight. The longer I reside in south Louisiana, the more I use my magnify-

ing class to inspect the deci-sions of our, eh, “eccentric” owner. Does he know his team is 1-4 in playoff games since 2006? I suppose his son hadn’t finished cleaning his glasses for him yet when he signed off on this move. As my stomach churns more and more at Jerry’s calls, I find myself rolling over one final question in my mind: Does the Who Dat Nation accept down on their luck Cowboys fans?

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) - Marques Colston let out a laugh and shrugged his shoulders when the subject of his NFL longevity arose.

“I’d rather look at that at the end of the season,” said the New Orleans Saints’ all-time leading receiver, now in his ninth year as a pro. “When it’s time to hang ‘em up, I’m pretty sure I’ll know and everyone else will know. But it’s surely not that time yet.”

Affirming that he feels healthy after making a concerted effort to rest a nagging left-foot injury this offseason, Colston aims to demonstrate why it may be premature to discuss his decline.

Last season, Colston fell short of the lofty standards he’s set during most of his career. He caught 75 passes for 943 yards and five touchdowns, ranking 28th in the NFL in catches, 27th in yards and 37th in TDs.

His 63 yards receiving per game were the lowest of his career. It also marked only the second time he failed to reach 1,000 yards in a season - the first being 2008, when he missed five games with a hand injury. Last season, he missed just one game.

Yet at 31, Colston is bound to find his role growing this season.

He and Robert Meachem are the only receivers on the squad with more than one year of regular season experience, but whether there will be room for Meachem on the 2014 regular season roster remains unclear.

The Saints have a number of young receivers who’ve shown promise, including Kenny Stills, Nick Toon, Joe Morgan and first-round draft choice Brandin Cooks.

Colston said it is odd for him to look around during receiv-ers meetings and realize that he is oldest guy in the room, and in most cases, “by far.”

While Colston has never been a particularly outspoken player, that doesn’t mean he won’t embrace a leadership role - though he may have his own, low-key way of doing it.

“It’s not really about getting on guys. It’s about being a resource to make corrections,” Colston said, add-ing that younger receivers ask “a ton of questions and I’m glad to answer them.”

The Saints appear content to let Colston lead as he sees fit.

“Guys can lead in different ways,” coach Sean Payton said. “We don’t want their personalities to change. He’s someone that’s always been fairly quiet. He does a lot of his talking (with his play).”

Meanwhile, Payton seeks to keep Colston as healthy as pos-sible by limiting his workload.

“With guys like Marques ... you’ve got to pay attention to what they’re doing daily, making sure it’s not too much and still making sure it’s enough to where they’re not rusty,” Payton said.

Colston didn’t look rusty during 11-on-11 drills Thursday, reaching down and twisting to snag a low throw while running across the middle.

“Being able to really rest and come into this season healthy, it’s a totally different ballgame,” Colston said. “I really just came out of (last) season knowing that I had to get healthy.”

Colston has continued to lie daily in his oxygen-rich, hyperbaric chamber in order to help his body recover faster. He even had it moved into his room at the Greenbrier Resort, re-arranging furniture to make it fit.

Few have been more pleased by the way New Orleans’ senior has looked this offseason than quarterback Drew Brees, who like Colston joined the Saints in 2006. Since then, Colston has accumulated franchise records of 607 passes, 8,337 yards receiving and 63 touchdown catches.

“Marques has as big a contribution now as he ever has,” Brees said. “It’s nice to have him be healthy.”

SUNDAY, AUGUST 3, 2014Take time to consider your

options and to make realis-tic choices. If you have been moving too fast or have acted impulsively, you may have missed an important detail or opportunity. Stabilize your situation by taking the time to listen and learn from those with more experience.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Things are not always as they appear. Before you fly off the handle, take a moment to observe the situation at hand and contemplate the best strategy.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A close friend will value any help you can provide. By being open and sharing your thoughts, you will gain respect and find answers to your concerns.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You should steer clear of financial risks or gambling of any kind. Ease your restless-ness by taking on a new cre-ative or intellectual challenge. Too much spare time can lead to poor decisions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Gain control of your

emotions before you make a major decision that could result in an unexpected and unwanted change. Listen carefully and weigh the con-sequences. Get all the facts before you take action.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Do whatever it takes to make a fresh start if you are unhappy or dissatisfied. You are not obligated to hang on to old ideas or partnerships that don’t work for you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Focus on whatever you feel passionate about. Getting caught up in minor irritations is a pointless waste of time. Do what comes naturally to you, and do your best.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Investigate alternate sources of income. Network with friends and relatives. You will receive favorable results if you send out your resume, check online job postings or set up an interview.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Make the most of any chance to participate in a social function. You will be particularly charming and will gain in popularity. A creative

idea you have been consider-ing is worth developing.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Some well-thought-out investments in your surround-ings could prove prosperous. Make changes that will appeal to everyone’s level of com-fort. Things that are pleasing to the eye will bring a good response from your col-leagues and family.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Love is in the air, and romance will improve your life. Dazzle your partner by planning a day to remember, or if you are single, get out and strut your stuff.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Someone in your circle will be worrisome. If you have done all you can to remedy a situ-ation that concerns you, it is probably time to cut ties to avoid going down with a sink-ing ship.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have the ability to express yourself in novel ways. Joining a creative work-shop or class will give you the opportunity to meet new people with compatible inter-ests.
