Basket fund nears $17,000 The spirit of giving continues into the new year in the Alcorn County area.

Donations continue to arrive for the 20th Annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund.

A $25,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 5. Baskets were given away based upon faith the goal will be reached.

The deadline to receive donations has been extended until Friday.

So far $16,786 has been raised, meaning $8,214 still has to be raised to meet the goal.

Recent donations include $50 from Helen Carroll in memory of Brad Bingham; $250 from Bell Liquefied Gas Co., Inc. in honor of Dr. T.L. Sweat; $50 from Al and Gail Stables in honor of the Challenger Sunday School Class at First United Methodist Church; $100 from Frank and Katie Dalton; and $91 from Holly Baptist Church Sunday School classes.

Donations can be brought by the newspaper office 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday or mailed to: Daily Corinthian, Attn.:Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835.

The first Board of Supervisors meeting of the new year focused mainly on turning the page to a new term with election of board leadership and the naming of various appointments.

Starting a third term representing Alcorn County’s Fifth District, Jim-

the Third District’s Tim Mitchell to continue as vice president.

The board chose to keep Bill Davis as board attorney and Cook Coggin as county engineer. The board tabled the appointment of a purchase clerk, a post that has been vacant since the exit of Paul Rhodes.

One victim of a Christmas Eve plane crash near the CorinthAlcorn County Airport remains in critical condition.

Lauren Chase, daughter-inlaw of pilot Dr. David Chase, was listed in critical condition at the Regional Medical Center (The Med) in Memphis, Tennessee, on Monday, according to hospital spokeswoman Angie Golding.

Lauren Chase was airlifted to The Med from Magnolia Regional Health Center, where she was transported by ambulance following the crash of the single-engine turboprop plane.

The plane crashed shortly after takeoff on the morning of Christmas Eve. Dr. Chase and other family members aboard escaped serious injury in the crash.

The pilot told emergency responders he noticed a flap was stuck on one of the wings of the aircraft and was attempting to return to the airport when the plane crashed. He managed to avoid several power lines and passed through two dead pine trees before landing just feet from a nearby vacant home.

New sheriff of Alcorn County hires chief deputy, other staff

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The first day of a new administration brought a new chief deputy and other shifting of positions at the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Department.

Sheriff Ben Caldwell presented staffing requests to the Board of Supervisors for approval in Monday morning’s opening of the new term. Supervisors approved the hiring of Dusty Essary as chief deputy.

David Derrick, who had served as chief deputy for the previous sheriff, is out as of Dec. 31.

Other changes approved by

“I’m really excited about the team we’ve got. The county is fortunate to have some good men and women working there. I’m excited to move forward.”

Ben Caldwell Alcorn County Sheriff supervisors: ■ Caleb Marolt, previously a deputy, is promoted to investigator ■ Adam Rencher is hired as narcotics investigator

■ Adam Hall is hired as a deputy ■ Anthony Davis is hired as a deputy ■ Jason Willis, previously an investigator, moves to deputy

■ Darrell Hopkins resigned as of Dec. 31 ■ Scott Dalton resigned as of Dec. 31 The new hires are effective immediately.

Caldwell While he had already taken over management of the jail and prison, Caldwell had only had about an hour with the sheriff’s department before the meeting of the supervisors.

“I’m really excited about the team we’ve got,” he said. “The county is fortunate to have some good men and women working there. I’m excited to move forward.”

The new sheriff is already dealing with some mechanical issues at the justice center, where some heating units are failing. He presented bids for repairs to the HVAC system in the 911 office, and supervisors approved the fix at a cost of $5,910.

Work will also be done on HVAC in the jail at a cost of $4,918.32, which did not require a competing bid.

Across the Region Corinth woman held at jail in Monroe Co. ABERDEEN — A Corinth woman is in the Monroe County jail on charges of sale of a controlled substance, according to WTVA. Sheriff Cecil Cantrell says they arrested Angela Faye Tullis, 47, Saturday.

Tullis was arrested on Highway 278 in the Wren community.

Cantrell says the arrest is part of an ongoing investigation in the sale of drugs in the county.

Tullis remains the Monroe County jail.

Main Street to host Night at Hardware BOONEVILLE — The Booneville & Prentiss County Main Street Association invites the public to attend the A Night at the Hardware event on Friday, Jan. 15, beginning at 7 p.m.

“Asya Branch, 2015 Miss Fall Festival, will be the entertainment

for the night,” said Trudy Featherston, Main Street Director. “Asya is actively involved in our community and we are excited to showcase her talent. She will also present information about a special project that she is currently working on.”

Featherston explained that the local Main Street program will be hosting a few events in the upcoming months to raise money for a beautification project for the overhead bridge. “The Booneville & Prentiss County Main Street Association plans to focus on a few beautification projects in the downtown area and we would love for our efforts to include the overhead bridge, which has always been a favorite point of interest with area residents.”

Admission to the A Night at the Hardware event will be free; donations will be taken and food will be sold to help with the fundraising efforts.

Lee County officals approve road repair TUPELO (AP) – As reported by The Daily Journal, six days of dry weather and official action by Lee County Supervisors will spell relief for those who regularly travel the ChickasawLee County Line Road.

At its first meeting of 2016, the Lee County Board of Supervisors approved $9,000 to cover repairs to road, also known as Lee County Road 54. The road, located in the Pleasant Grove community about six miles southwest of Shannon, has been closed from the intersection of County Road 101 west since Christmas afternoon.

Dry weather since Dec.. 28 opened a window for repairs of the road, said County Road manager Tim Allred.

Crews were ready to move on the project as soon the supervisors approved the work on Monday morning.

Allred said he hopes

the work can be completed the end of the day Monday and the road reopened late afternoon. Barring unforeseen complications, the repairs should be completed no later than Tuesday morning.

Heavy rains on Christmas day, which also caused flooding in Amory, washed out a culvert on the road, creating a 10foot gap in the pavement.

The Tupelo Regional Airport recorded 2.16 inches of rain. The Monroe County Airport reported 3.76 inches of rain.

The culvert had been put in place about six months ago, and there had been no problems reported before Dec. 25, Allred said.

There are about three homes in Lee County directly affected by the road closure, but much of the traffic on that portion of the road comes from Pontotoc County.

Project aims to help house LGBT youth MEMPHIS (AP) — The

Memphis Gay and Lesbian Community Center wants to provide transitional housing for homeless or struggling youth in the LGBT community by using refurbished shipping containers.

The center’s Youth Services Manager Stephanie Reyes tells the Commercial Appeal she and volunteers developed the idea for The Metamorphosis Project after she found out that Habitat for Humanity in Kentucky was making shipping container homes for veterans.

According to Reyes, the center’s Executive Director Will Batts and Operations Manager Elokin CaPece, the center heard from young people in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community about problems of hunger and poverty.

In September, the center bought four unused lots and a private drive for the housing project, which will be used by LGBT youth ages 18 to 25.

Obama declares disaster The Associated Press

JACKSON — Five Mississippi counties hit hard by late December storms and tornadoes are eligible for federal disaster aid.

The White House said Monday that President Barack Obama declared a major disaster in the state, making funds available to people and businesses in Benton, Coahoma, Marshall, Quitman and Tippah counties.

The declaration covers areas affected by severe weather between Dec. 23 and Dec. 28.

Eleven deaths were attributed to the storms.

Assistance can in-

clude grants for temporary housing and home repairs and low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses.

Gov. Phil Bryant formally requested the disaster declaration last week.

In Benton, Marshall and Tippah, federal funding also is available to state, tribal, and local governments and some nonprofit organizations for emergency work and repair or replacement of facilities.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency said additional disaster designations may be made later if requested by

the state and warranted by the results of further damage assessments.

Residents and business owners who sustained losses in the designated counties can begin applying for assistance beginning Tuesday by registering online at http://www.

DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621FEMA(3362).

In addition to the aid available in the counties listed in the disaster designation, the White House news release said that federal cost-share funding is available for hazard mitigation efforts statewide.

Crossroads Museum, Tuscumbia Gardens, Borroum’s Drug Store, SoCo District and Dilworth’s Tamales.

“The SoCo District is something new this year in the guide,” said Brown. “It’s a little bit different this year in that it doesn’t highlight every town in the state, but if anyone comes in and wants to know the sights and sounds of the state we can help them.”

Attractions not found

“Good Morning America” host and Mississippian Robin Roberts appears on the cover of the latest tour guide.

“We refer to the guides every day,” said Brown.

Supervisors appointed Chancery Clerk Greg Younger as county administrator and inventory control clerk, Ricky Gibens as emergency management coordinator, and Carolyn James as receiving clerk.

Assistant receiving clerks will be Anthony Hutcheson, First District; Keven Moss, Second District; Eddie Clark, Third District; Jerry Gifford, Fourth District; and Phillip Settlemires, Fifth District.

The board made public defender appointments but will need to take another look at that action in the next meeting, the board attorney said after the meeting.

The board agreed with Steve Glidewell’s motion to change the meeting time of the third-Monday meeting each month from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. to accommodate people who work during the day and cannot attend morning meetings. Because the next regular meeting falls on a holiday, the board moved it to Tuesday, Jan. 19, at 5:30 p.m.

After a member of the public made comments encouraging the board to be transparent about the county’s finances, Younger said he plans to be ac-

tive on the budget and possibly begin reporting to the board regularly on its status.

“I can say for myself and I know probably for the board as well, we are going to be the best stewards that we can of the people’s money,” he said.

“We are tight, and we are going to have to make an effort to control our spending and make sure that the taxpayers’ money is spent the way it needs to be spent.”

In other business: ■ Supervisors awarded a contract to Buddy Ayers Construction for a bridge project on County Road 711 in the First District.

Ayers was the only bidder at $253,401.50.

■ Johnny Crotts of Cook Coggin reported the bridge structure is finally complete on the long-closed portion of County Road 346 in the Second District and is awaiting completion of the approaches.

“The bridge is considerably higher than the old bridge, so it will have to be built up on either side, and that’s a little more sensitive to the weather than some of the bridge elements,” he said.

■ The board approved Jan. 18 as a county holiday for Martin Luther King’s birthday and Robert E. Lee’s birthday, in line with the state observance.

Corinth, Miss.

Taking stock Taking stock is a tradition observed by Jews at Yom Kippur and others who examine their lives at the end of a year and vow to improve in the new year.

One group needs to take Cal stock perhaps more than any Thomas other: the mainstream media.

They continue to lose readers Columnist and viewers, but close their eyes and ears to complaints from the public, guaranteeing continued decline in revenue, along with buyouts and layoffs.

So many of the big media outlets have become predictable and one-dimensional that if I didn’t have to pay attention, I wouldn’t.

The New York Times, which fancies itself the “paper of record,” is an ideological broken record. The Times and the broadcast networks are mostly toadies for the secular progressive left.

The conservative Media Research Center has compiled some of the more outrageous statements made during 2015 in its annual list of “Notable Quotables.” Disclosure: I was one of the judges.

My personal favorite comes from Dick Meyer, the Washington Bureau chief for Scripps Howard newspapers and a former producer for CBS News. In a July 16 op-ed for a publication called “Decode,” Meyer wrote of his admiration for President Obama: “Americans are lucky to have Barack Obama as president and we should wake up and appreciate it while we can. President Obama will go down in history as an extraordinary president, probably a great one. ... It would be a morale booster and a sign of civic maturity if more Americans appreciated what an exceptional president they have right now. It could be a long wait for the next one.”

I’m sure Meyer would say his personal feelings about the president have nothing to do with his journalistic equanimity when it comes to reporting. That’s not what the public thinks, as trust of the big media remains at an all-time low.

Opinion columnists are given more latitude than reporters, but when a newspaper like The Washington Post carries mostly liberal commentators who have been in the tank for President Obama and appear eager to back Hillary Clinton in the next election, one might credibly conclude there is a pattern.

Writing in his April 8 Post column, Harold Myerson offered his view of the Republican Party: “Fueled by the mega-donations of the mega-rich, today’s Republican Party is not just far from being the party of Lincoln: It’s really the party of Jefferson Davis.

It suppresses black voting; it opposes federal efforts to mitigate poverty; it objects to federal investment in infrastructure and education just as the antebellum South opposed internal improvements and rejected public education; it scorns compromise. It is nearly all white. It is the lineal descendant of Lee’s army, and the descendants of Grant’s have yet to subdue it.”

Let’s all run to the closet and grab our sheets for the next Ku Klux Klan meeting.

Perhaps the biggest laugher of all comes from far-left New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. In an interview with Ezra Klein for Vox.com, Krugman said: “As a Times columnist, I can’t do endorsements, so you have no idea which party I favor in general elections.”

Oh really? I might be willing to pay a year of Krugman’s rent or mortgage if he could prove he ever voted for a conservative Republican, or if he could point to one in the newsroom.

There are many other examples such as these that you can read at mrc.org.

As a longtime member of the media, I do not wish to see a profession I love destroyed, but not only are these people in denial about what is happening to them, they appear uninterested in discovering the cause for their decline and then correcting it.

That should be sufficient reason to take stock at the end of this year, but I fear that as in other years, the big media will push blindly ahead until the last person must symbolically turn out the lights, and democracy suffers for want of a vibrant press that more people can trust.

(Readers may email Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribpub.com.)

Prayer for today Almighty God, grant that my life may no longer be a noise, but be kept in tune with the sublimest melodies, that wherever I am, there may be no discords in the songs of my soul. Through thy loving-kindness may my songs resound. Amen.

A verse to share “And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD; though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.” Leviticus 5:17

Outsourcing the mentally ill to police The latest police shooting to roil Chicago was all too familiar – and not because it fits the poisonous narrative of rampant police racism alleged by Black Lives Matter.

Quintonio LeGrier’s father called police after locking himself in a bedroom when his son menaced him with a baseball bat. When the police arrived, LaGrier, a 19-year-old with emotional problems, allegedly charged them with the bat.

An officer shot him dead, and accidentally killed a neighbor as well.

The heart-rending case is, tragically, almost routine. Consider two other recent cases. On Dec. 29, Siolosega Velega-Nuufolau of Santa Nella, California, a 50-year-old woman with mental problems, was shot dead when allegedly charging a sheriff’s deputy with a kitchen knife. On Dec. 19, police killed Ruben Jose Herrera, a 26-year-old Los Angeles-area man suffering from bipolar disorder, when he allegedly lunged for an officer’s gun in the hospital.

For all the attention devoted to police-involved shootings and race, mental illness is the more salient issue. A joint report by the Treatment Advocacy Center

and National Sheriffs’ Association in 2013 examined cases between 1980 and Rich 2008, and Lowry e s t i m a t e d that roughly National half involved Review people with mental illness. A Washington Post analysis of 1,000 fatal police shootings in 2015 puts it at about a quarter.

These shootings are another tragic symptom of our contemptible outsourcing of the severely mental ill to law enforcement. The police are our de facto frontline mental-health workers – “armed social workers” in the pungent phrase of one observer – and jails are our de facto psychiatric hospital system.

In its analysis of 2015 police shootings, the Post found dozens of cases where the police were called as a means of getting treatment.

Shirley Marshall Harrison called the Dallas police when her schizophrenic, bipolar son was out of control.

He was shot down while allegedly charging police with a screwdriver. “I didn’t call for them to take him to the morgue,” she said of the

cops. “I called for medical help.”

It’s a poignant lament, but why do the families of the severely mentally ill need to rely on the police for medical assistance? When someone has a heart attack or gets cancer, we don’t call the police.

The answer is simple.

In response to abuses, we emptied out mental institutions, but didn’t make adequate provisions for otherwise treating the severely mentally ill, who are often left to suffer their delusions with overwhelmed, often frightened family members, or to rot on the streets or in jails.

“There are less than 100,000 seriously mentally ill in psychiatric hospitals being cared for by the mental health system,” D.J. Jaffe, the executive director of Mental Illness Policy.Org, writes. “But there are 365,000 incarcerated.

There are also 770,000 on probation or parole and 165,000 homeless.”

With the mental-health industry essentially abdicating when it comes to the severely mentally ill who refuse treatment or are too sick to realize they need it, the responsibility of the police is increasingly to serve, protect – and deal with

desperately ill, irrational people. In 2013, the Arizona Daily Star reported that police in Tucson received “more calls about mental illness than about burglaries or stolen cars.”

Yes, police should be better trained in how to try to de-escalate. But there always will be legitimate danger in these incidents – cops can, and do, get killed.

The Post analysis “found that about nine in 10 of the mentally troubled people killed by police were armed, usually with guns, but also with knives or other sharp objects.”

A more rational and humane policy would give families robust treatment options before it gets to the point of calling the cops.

This would mean more psychiatric hospital beds and more options for mandated care. Rep. Tim Murphy, R., Pa., has a bill to push the mental-health system in this direction. The alternative is to continue to default to police to cope with out-of-control people, often brandishing weapons, and hope for the best – and brace for the worst.

Brandon Presley could get his chance JACKSON — Start thinking of him as Chairman Presley.

Brandon Presley has never been shy and retiring.

But with a second Democrat coming onto the Mississippi Public Service Commission, the Northern District commissioner will likely take center stage at the utility regulatory agency.

With Democrat Cecil Brown of Jackson being sworn into the Central District commission seat, replacing Republican Lynn Posey of Union Church, Presley is likely to become chairman of the threemember body. They will be joined by Republican Sam Britton of Laurel, who takes over from Phil Bryant appointee Steve Renfroe of Moss Point. While Renfroe declined to publicly identify himself with a party, he supported Posey as the commission’s chairman.

Presley has already exerted influence at the commission over his two terms, even while in the minority, in part because he works hard. For example, he has served on a multistate panel that oversees Entergy Corp.’s transmission spending, and now

is keeping an eye on Mississippi’s participation in a multistate organization Jeff Amy that allows power to Columnist be shipped across a broad region, encouraging utilities to buy the cheapest power available.

Presley, former Nettleton mayor, has also used the commission’s rate-setting power to subsidize the expansion of natural gas service to new residential customers in places like Pontotoc County and to encourage utilities to extend service to industries in places like an Oxford industrial park.

An aggressive regulator, Presley has pushed the limits of the commission’s authority. But he’s careful not to go too far. For example, most residents of Presley’s 33-county district get their electricity from cooperative and municipal utilities. Presley continues to try to regulate cooperatives in some ways, despite their continued claims that he has almost no power over them.

Recently, however, when the commission rolled out electric metering rules to try to make rooftop solar panels more economical and easier to install, Presley took what he could get. The commission basically decided that it would accept the Tennessee Valley Authority’s net metering rules for cooperatives it serves. And the remaining cooperatives got a year to propose alternatives to the commission, although their power provider, the South Mississippi Electric Power Association, has threatened to sue anyway.

Presley is a longtime opponent of Mississippi Power Co.’s $6.5 billion Kemper County power plant, but has also begun singing different notes on that subject. Presley originally voted against emergency rate relief in the summer, but gave a speech saying he recognized that the unit of Atlanta-based Southern Co. was in financial difficulty. Then Presley voted to keep a somewhat lower version of those rates in December, saying it was a rate decrease and that he wanted to find ways to begin resolving the financial mess that Mississippi Pow-

er has created with Kemper.

Elvis Presley’s second cousin passed up a chance to run for statewide office this year, but Democrats are still looking to him as a future gubernatorial candidate. Discussing politics with the Mississippi State University’s Stennis Institute of Government and the Capitol press corps, author and Democratic strategist Jere Nash said he still likes Presley’s chances in a gubernatorial race. And unlike in 2015, when Presley would have faced the monolithic popularity of Phil Bryant, 2019 will feature an open race for governor. (And for lieutenant governor, and potentially for a number of other statewide offices.)

So that gives four years for Presley, who’s carefully tended his home base in northeast Mississippi, to make a splash statewide.

His recent actions, especially on Kemper and rooftop solar metering, could be the opening acts of a four-year chairmanship designed to do just that.

State/Nation

Across the Nation Associated Press

2016 gets started with sinking stocks NEW YORK — It was a gloomy start to the new year on Wall Street as stocks sank as part of a global sell-off.

Investors worried about new signs of a slowdown in China and a flare-up in tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran. That sent the price of oil on another wild ride.

The Dow Jones industrial average clawed back the worst of an early decline but still ended with its worst loss in two weeks.

The Dow slumped 276 points, or 1.6 percent, to 17,148. It was down 468 earlier.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index lost 31 points, or 1.5 percent, to 2,012. The Nasdaq composite fell 104 points, or 2.1 percent, to 4,903.

China’s main index plunged nearly 7 percent, triggering a trading halt, after manufacturing slumped again. Â

Theme park artist charged in attack ORLANDO, Fla. — A recently fired caricature artist at Universal Orlando Resort tried to kill his manager by stabbing him in the neck with scissors on New Year’s Day, according to a police report released Monday.

Frederick Torres, 33, was charged with attempted first-degree murder for his attack on Glenn Ferguson at the Islands of Adventure park. Both artists draw caricatures at Universal’s parks but work for an outside firm, Orlando-based Fasen Artists, Inc. The general manager of the firm, Anthony Fasen, told detectives he had fired Torres the day before the attack.

On New Year’s Day, Torres called Fasen, who said he reiterated that Torres was fired. Torres then said he was going to kill Ferguson, according to the police report. “Fasen advised specifically that Torres had said, ‘I’m going to slit Glenn’s throat’ and ‘I’m going to kill your number one artist,’� the police report said.

Stephen Fasen, the president of the compa-

ny, didn’t respond to an email. Universal spokesman Tom Schroder said in an email that he couldn’t comment.

The stabbings cut an artery in Ferguson’s neck and caused brain leakage, according to the police report. He underwent surgery and was still hospitalized Monday, but his condition wasn’t immediately known. The police report did not list his age, but Orlando Police spokeswoman Michelle Guido said Monday that he is 42.

Court records do not list an attorney for Torres, who was being held in the Orange County Jail on Monday.

Witnesses told detectives that they saw Torres chasing Ferguson through Islands of Adventure before the attack Friday morning.

A security guard got between Torres and Ferguson, and another guard showed up at the scene. Despite that, Torres lunged at Ferguson and struck him several times. Ferguson tried to get up to run but fell to the ground, according to the police report. Â

Watchdog agency to detail reforms CHICAGO — A watchdog agency that investigates Chicago police officers said Monday it will implement reforms in the wake of protests over several fatal shootings of African-Americans.

The head of the Independent Review Authority planned to detail those reforms later in the day. They include hiring of new staff and creating a community outreach position, according to a statement.

Scrutiny of IPRA intensified after the Nov. 24 release of video showing a white officer shooting black teenager Laquan McDonald 16 times as he walked away from police. McDonald was carrying a folded 3-inch knife.

The video let to protests, some directed at IPRA, which was created in 2007 ostensibly to give it the independence it needed to hold officers accountable.

But in practice, it rarely ruled against officers.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel appointed former fed-

eral prosecutor Sharon Fairley to head IPRA last month after her predecessor resigned amid growing protests over the McDonald shooting.

Critics argue IPRA has too many vested interests and is beyond salvaging, saying it should be scrapped altogether and replaced with a new body run by civilians with no links to city power structures.

Suspicion about police reform runs deep in Chicago, where the perception is that past much-ballyhooed police reforms changed little.

Past claims by the mayor’s office that IPRA is uniquely independent were questioned with the release last week of 3,000 pages of city emails relating to McDonald’s 2014 shooting.

In a March 11, 2015, email from the thenhead of IPRA, Scott Ando, he asks about forwarding witness interview transcripts to the city’s law department “for their use in (lawsuit) settlement negotiations withâ€? the McDonald family. Other emails show Emanuel advisers and IPRA seeking to coordinate their response to the video, which officials recognized could spark outrage. Â

Country star’s body recovered from lake PONCA CITY, Okla. — The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says the body of a missing country singer from Arkansas who disappeared during a severe storm has been recovered from an Oklahoma lake.

The patrol says its Marine Enforcement Division recovered the body of 29-year-old Craig M. Strickland Monday morning in Kaw Lake, located 8 miles east of Ponca City just south of the OklahomaKansas state line.

Strickland and a friend, Chase R. Morland, were reported missing on Dec. 27 during a duck hunting trip on the Kay County lake.

The pair’s capsized boat was found the same day. Morland’s body was recovered from the lake a day later.

Strickland is the lead singer of the Arkansasbased country-rock band Backroad Anthem.

No fatal accidents during New Year’s JACKSON — The Mississippi Highway Patrol says the new year started with no fatal accidents over the New Year’s holiday.

The New Year’s enforcement period began Thursday and ended Friday at midnight.

Capt. Johnny Poulos said in a news release state troopers investigated 79 traffic accidents on state and federal highways and interstates, which resulted in 19 injuries.

Poulos says troopers issued 3,035 citations during the holiday period and made 84 DUI arrests.

During the Christmas holiday period, Poulos says five people, including two pedestrians, died in four collisions on state highways and interstates over the Christmas weekend. Three other people died in crashes in D’Iberville and Saucier.

Poulos said rain and thunderstorms may have led to more accidents during the Christmas period which ended at midnight Dec. 27. Â

Carnival kicks off with kings, krewes BILOXI — Christmas and New Year’s may have passed, but the holidays are just begin-

ning for 2016.

Tuesday marks the Christian celebration of Twelfth Night, a festive occasion on the eve of Epiphany to recognize the three kings at Jesus’ birth, and Epiphany arrives on Wednesday, continuing the festivities and welcoming the beginning of the indulgent Carnival season.

The revelry of Twelfth Night and Epiphany may honor the three kings, but the holiday also celebrates the opening of Carnival and its various attractions, including parades, balls and sweet king cakes.

Levees may cause more frequent floods Staff back The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — The Mississippi River floods more often than it used to, and at higher levels.

Richard Knaup thinks he knows why.

The veteran emergency management director for southeast Missouri’s Cape Girardeau County is fighting floods again, just as he did last year, and the year before that, and the year before that.

“Prior to levee building, the river was a wild thing and it spread out between the river bluffs,” Knaup said Monday.

“Now we’ve tried to tame it. Mother Nature and

Old Man River will fight back.”

The rains that caused this winter’s flood, blamed already for 25 deaths and damage to hundreds of homes and businesses, ended a week ago, but the water was still rising Monday in southern Missouri and Illinois. The Illinois River was expected to reach near-record crests this week between the Illinois towns of Havana and Valley City, creating “a very dangerous situation” as levees there become saturated, said Steve Buan, a National Weather Service hydrologist.

Several other states along the Mississippi River were still bracing for the crest, which was flowing past Tiptonville, Tennessee, and expected to reach Memphis on Thursday at 6.5 feet above flood stage.

For many in the floodweary Midwest, fighting the river has become an almost annual event. In Cape Girardeau County, all but five of the 32 highest crests on record have occurred since the record-setting 1993 flood, and four of the top 10 have happened since 2011.

So what’s going on?

Unusual weather patterns are a symptom of global warming, but experts also blame more immediate developments, including efforts to protect growing towns and cities from the rivers both that sustain and threaten them.

Bob Holmes, a Missouri-based hydrologic engineer for the U.S. Geological Survey, says the Midwest has received far more rainfall than normal over the past quarter of a century, and more extreme rainstorms, such as the three-day downpour Dec. 26-28 that dumped 10 inches of rain over much of Missouri and Illinois and caused this latest mess. But urban sprawl also increases flood risk, he said.

“Farm fields will soak up water,” Holmes said.

“If you pave it with concrete or asphalt, all of a sudden that is a very efficient conduit right into the streams and you get increased flooding.”

Bob Criss, an earth and planetary science professor at Washing-

ton University in St. Louis, also blames urbanization, and says this latest spike of rain wouldn’t have caused major flooding if the river wasn’t constricted by levees and floodwalls.

“The Mississippi River behaved during this event like a small river, and it’s acting like a small river because the water has no place to go,” Criss said.

Earthen mounds have held back the Mississippi in places since French settlers installed the river’s first levees in Louisiana in 1717. They spread quickly as riverfront communities developed, but floods have continued to pose threats ever since.

This was predicted as far back as 1852, when engineer Charles Ellet Jr. warned in a report to Congress that risks would only increase as “water that was formerly allowed to spread over many thousand square miles of low lands is becoming more and more confined to the immediate channel of the river.”

A NEW NEW YEAR! As we stand on the brink of another new year, let us think of the many opportunities and struggles it will provide. Let us think of those who will name the name of Christ in baptism, and let us work to help them make the most important decision of their lives. Let us think of those who will come back to the Lord, and let us pray for them and encourage them in every way for good. Let us think of those among us who will leave this world of sin and sorrow for the bright and sunny shores of eternity, where no sin or sorrow may be found, and let us learn from their godly examples. Let us also think of what we will use the new year for...

Will We Use It For Gaining A Better Knowledge Of God’s Word?

There are many good things for us to learn in life, but none begin to compare with the value of a knowledge of the blessed Word of God. It will go with us through all other educational endeavors, it will accompany us through our working years, it will be there for the birth and rearing of our children, it will be there for us in our sickness, even going with us to the grave, and it will stand as a witness to our faithfulness in the after awhile.

May we determine to spend some time each day of this new year studying the Bible. May it be of greater importance to us than all other pursuits.

Will We Use It To Mature Spiritually?

Will we apply the things we are taught in the Bible to our lives and thereby set a better example before others? Will we be diligent in attendance, showing all the world that there is no place on earth we would rather be than in the assembly of the saints worshipping God? Will we put to practice what the preacher preaches?

Will We Use It To Tell Someone Of Jesus Christ?

Remember, our family, friends and neighbors are rushing headlong into judgment. Have we told them what God Requires of them in order to be saved? We see them daily, and would probably do anything on earth for them, but have we told them how to get to heaven? Is it really so difficult and risky to speak a word in the interest of their souls (Prov. 11:30)?

Will We Use It To Be Of Greater Service To The Church?

Will we be among those who volunteer to lead in prayer? Head the table?

Make announcements? Will we volunteer to teach a class? You know, teaching is a wonderful way of helping others, but it also allows us to grow and strengthen ourselves in the faith. Will we make ourselves available for service this year? The church is a working institution composed of working members. Will we be such members in the next twelve months?

Will We Use It To Help The Elders Make Things Go Smoothly?

Will we refrain from activities that will cause trouble in church? Will we be sure to be present for each assembly, for the elders have set the times so we may come and be edified and strengthened? Will we be kind to visitors? will we listen to the teachers and preacher as they feed us the word of God? If This Should Be Our Last Year On This Earth, Will Our Passing Bring Joy Or Sadness To The Angels In Heaven?

The Lord loves us all, and wants to see us in heaven; but it is up to us to repent and obey (2 Pet. 3:9-10, Acts 2:38). If we had to leave this world in our present spiritual condition, where would we go? It is a most sobering and serious thought, but if we welcome our last new year, this year what will become of us?

at offices following massacre The Associated Press

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — In the offices of the Inland Regional Center, Christmas did not come.

Tinsel still festoons cubicles. A small tree with presents sits undisturbed.

A sign-up sheet to bring in food remains empty of names.

The staff was still gearing up for the holidays on Dec. 2, the day 14 people were massacred on the center’s gleaming campus.

Few of its 600 employees have gone to the office since, other than a brief visit to gather personal belongings a week after the terror attack.

On Monday, they returned.

“Most of us are relieved to be back at work. We want to continue with the normalcy, and we miss each other very much,” Executive Director Lavinia Johnson told reporters.

“We want to ensure that our staff feels safe and secure as they work in their offices.”

Security guards checked employee IDs at the entrance to the center’s parking lot. No visitors were planned this week, and a chain-link fence wrapped in green mesh surrounding the property will remain up indefinitely, Johnson said.

While many have continued to work, visiting the homes of autistic children and mentally disabled adults, they haven’t been together in the place where everything froze once law enforcement officers whisked them away.

Amid the investigation and cleanup, the campus has been locked behind the temporary fence.

Within that perimeter, in one corner, is a second fence.

It seals the conference center that San Bernardino County’s health department was renting for a holiday luncheon when the two attackers began their assault. A county restaurant inspector targeting his co-workers was joined by his wife in killing 14 and injuring dozens.

For now, the act of reuniting elsewhere on campus is a huge step forward for Inland Regional Center staff. They miss the friendly faces, the hallway chit chat. They yearn to renew a sense of stability at an institution unmoored by violence.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Don’t miss Crossroads Magazine Healthy Living edition coming out on Saturday, Jan. 30, and get the new year off to a healthy start.

Husband who’s aiding ex-lover appears to be helping himself D E A R ABBY: My husband went to Florida three months ago to care for an ailing former Abigail lover. He told she will Van Buren me be leaving him a sizDear Abby able inheritance and he needs to protect her from “vultures.” I admit I am suspicious of his motives. I think there may be more going on than what he’s telling me, but he has been painting a pretty picture of how rosy our future will be with her gift.

He has now suggested that we get a temporary divorce so he can marry her in order to get her entire estate! He claims it will be nothing more than a business arrangement. His suggestion left me flabbergasted. Even though our marriage has been rocky at times, I have never seen this side of him. I don’t know whether to believe him and be simply disappointed at his callous behavior, or not believe him and conclude that he really wants a divorce so he can marry her.

Any thoughts? -- HEARTSICK IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR HEARTSICK: Your husband appears to still be car-

rying a torch for his old flame.

Are you sure she is really sick?

If it’s the truth, then the “vulture” I see on the horizon may be him.

I hope you appreciate how extremely manipulative your husband appears to be. Because of it, and since he has spoken the “D” word, consult a lawyer to ensure that your interests will be protected regardless of his motives. I’m saying that in case the woman turns out to be healthier than both of you.

DEAR ABBY: How do you help someone who doesn’t want to be helped? My adult son, “Greg,” who lives with me, is slowly drinking himself to death.

He was laid off two years ago, and I know he is depressed and has given up on life.

It has reached the point where he is showing signs of cirrhosis, but he refuses to do anything about it. The last time he saw a doctor was three years ago.

The doctor said Greg’s liver functions were not normal and he needed to stop drinking. I’ve tried to make my son listen to reason, to no avail.

My sister tells me if I don’t get Greg some help, I could be charged with adult neglect. But I don’t know how to fix this. The outcome is increasingly bleak.

What can I do? -- MOM WITH A PROBLEM DEAR MOM: If the inability to convince a substance-addicted

adult relative to get help were against the law, there wouldn’t be enough prisons to hold all the “offenders.”

As much as you love your son, you can’t “fix” his alcohol addiction. You should, however, find the nearest Al-Anon group and attend some meetings. And while you are at it, bring your sister with you because she has a lot to learn. Chief among the lessons is that someone else’s drinking is not another person’s fault or responsibility to control. I am sorry for your pain, because I’m sure it is considerable.

DEAR ABBY: I’m an attorney. Recently at a party, an acquaintance was talking about some litigation his company is involved in. I commented briefly on something he said, and he responded, “We take advice from attorneys we PAY,” and walked away. Should I feel insulted, or should I have stayed out of the conversation to begin with? -- HURT FEELINGS IN FLORIDA DEAR HURT: Some people think that anything that’s offered for free is without value, and it appears the man you encountered is one of them. Because this is his world view, try not to take it personally. Your motives were generous. I see no reason to muzzle yourself in the future if you think you have something helpful to say.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). If your entire identity is based on your success in one area of life, you’re lessening your chances of having a great day. What else do you have going on with highfive potential? Add new projects and activities to the list.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The dating world is a complicated place. It’s a good thing your natural instincts kick in to help you navigate it either for yourself or your loved ones. If you give advice, it will be brilliant. If you take advice, take your own.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Laughing is what helps you make it through. Don’t wait until you’re feeing bad to look for the funny. Stock up so you’re ready when the weird days hit. Today will bring comic treasures.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’ve become what you once envied and, strangely, that fact alone brings little satisfaction.

It was the way it pushed you to grow that really mattered all along. Don’t let that stop you from envying something new.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s a simple fact of human nature: Nobody likes things being crammed down their throat.

You’re adept in the art of persuasion today, which will include leading by example so you don’t have to launch into the hard sell.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Regarding the sort of change that happens today: Give it time to sink in. Let it ruminate for a few days. Don’t go immediately back to what you’re familiar with. Live in the transition.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Some secret thing is distracting you -- it’s hiding right below the surface of your awareness and nudging you softly. It wants to be uncovered. All you have to do is ask yourself a few questions and you’ll figure out this little puzzle.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

From Penicillin to Velcro, many important and useful discoveries were made by chance instead of contemplation. However, when you contemplate, chance will favor you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s not that you’re unhappy with the way things are. You just happen to be fascinated by the potential of things. It’s how your mind is working today, leaping into an imaginary future and carrying reality along with it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you feel slightly tense walking into the room it’s only because you have an agenda beyond what others in the room have. Relax into the prevalent mood and it will be easier to get this agenda across.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Do you really make the world better by following your bliss? Of course! Though you should be warned: These days it will take a lot more courage and planning to devote yourself to your own enjoyment.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You’re excellent at drawing boundaries now. You’re so clear on what you will and won’t do that you can say it fast and with a light touch, getting the message across instantaneously.

+.43 +.14 +.06 Member SIPC -8.78 +1.14 -.16 -.95 +.13 -.71 +.06 A lucky group of investors got a big gift from Washington this +.56 holiday season. +.33 In the $1.1 trillion federal budget passed last month, Congress +.04 included a five-year extension of a federal tax credit for homes and -1.74 businesses that install renewable energy systems.

-3.22 With the government picking up 30 percent of the tab, these -2.85 companies can offer more homeowners solar systems for little or no -2.37 upfront cost, and lower monthly utility bills. Sunrun jumped 77 -.65 percent last month. SolarCity rose 77.4 percent.

-.77 Are the stocks flying too close to the sun? No way, says Credit -.17 Suisse analyst Patrick Jobin, author of a recent report arguing that -.01 the two solar stocks are worth double their current levels.

Maybe, but be forewarned: Investing in solar is not for the faint -1.03 of heart.

My eight siblings live within close proximity of each other, and I live 3,000 miles away.

Over the years, most of my family has never missed an opportunity to impose their religious views on me. Even though I have made it clear that I am not interested, I am often subjected to family members sending me religious material, making offhand cynical remarks about my soul, or cornering me at gatherings to coax me back, share their anger or try to make me feel guilty.

A few years ago, when my sister “Louise” and I had a disagreement, I was brutally chastised, told by her and others that it was my fault because I did not read the Bible.

What is even more insulting is that most of my siblings have had major life problems (affairs, money issues, fraud, child abuse), but my husband and I have had none of that. We have welcomed my family into our home on many occasions, treating them to fantastic stays in our city, which is a vacation destination.

Recently, Louise sent

me a misleading email, asking what seemed to be an innocuous question, but which was intended to get me to research material that would create an “aha” moment to get me back into the fold.

I have had it with this passive-aggressive behavior. We are going to their town soon, and I know I will encounter Louise.

Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott (15) and the rest of the senior class left their marks on Bulldog football.

Dak Prescott, seniors leave mark at MSU

BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer

Dak Prescott came to Mississippi State as an anonymous quarterback prospect who barely received interest from most major schools.

Five years later he leaves as one of the best players in Bulldogs’ history.

Prescott added one more great game to his outstanding career last week, throwing for 380 yards and four touchdowns to lead Mississippi State over North Carolina State 51-28 in the Belk Bowl.

It was a final reminder of just how good Prescott could

First Pitch Banquet The Alcorn Central Bears Baseball team is pleased to announce Ole Miss Athletic Director, Ross Bjork, will be the featured speaker for its annual First Pitch Banquet & Silent Auction to be held on Thursday, January 21, at 6:45 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall of First Baptist Church in Corinth. Seating is limited to the first 175 tickets sold and must be purchased in advance.

terday and then it seems like a lifetime ago that I was in his office for an official visit and he was selling the program to me,” Prescott said. “It was everything that I wanted to do. I believed in him 100 percent and now here we are five years later.”

Prescott’s individual numbers are impressive, but it’s the program’s success during the past two seasons that has made the quarterback so popular around Starkville.

The Bulldogs won nine games in back-to-back seasons for the first time in school history and Prescott had a

23-10 record as a starter over three years. His play helped push the program to the No. 1 spot in the national rankings for five straight weeks in the middle of the 2014 season.

Coach Dan Mullen credited Prescott and the rest of the seniors for helping the program’s rise despite residing in the notoriously difficult Southeastern Conference Western Division.

“I feel like they have really changed what people think Mississippi State football is all about,” Mullen said.

Ole Miss’ Treadwell, Tunsil will enter NFL draft

be. It’s also indicative of just how much the Bulldogs (9-4) relied on his talent and will miss him.

The 6-foot-2, 230-pound senior is just the fourth player in FBS history to throw for 9,000 career yards and run for 2,500, joining Florida’s Tim Tebow, Nevada’s Colin Kaepernick and Central Michigan’s Dan LeFevour.

In his final season, he threw for 3,793 yards, 27 touchdowns and just five interceptions. He also ran for a team-high 588 yards and 10 touchdowns.

“It kind of seems like yes-

Mississippi receiver Laquon Treadwell is heading to the NFL. So is left tackle Laremy Tunsil.

Both players declared for the draft just three days after starring in the team’s emphatic Sugar Bowl win over Oklahoma State. Treadwell caught three touchdowns passes and Tunsil scored the

only touchdown of his career on a trick play, catching a lateral and running for a 2-yard score.

The school released separate statements announcing both players’ decision hours apart on Monday.

The 6-foot-2, 210-pound Treadwell leaves Ole Miss with several school records and led the Southeastern Conference with 1,153 yards

receiving this season. The 6-foot-5, 305-pound Tunsil anchored the Rebels’ offensive line for three seasons.

Neither player’s decision is surprising: Both are widely considered a first round pick three years after being among the nation’s top recruits.

Treadwell played all 13 games this season — helping Ole Miss to a 10-win season — one year after breaking his

leg in a game against Auburn.

His unique combination of strength and speed made him the Rebels’ most consistent playmaker.

“After sitting down with my family, we have decided it is time for me to take the next step in my career and enter the 2016 NFL draft,” Treadwell said in the school’s Please see DRAFT | 11

Giants 2-time Super Bowl winner Coughlin resigns The Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — With the New York Giants facing a difficult decision on his coaching future after four straight years out of the playoffs, Tom Coughlin walked away gracefully, doing what was best for him.

The Giants gave him 12 years to run one of the NFL’s flagship organizations. He delivered two Super Bowls and restored the franchise to the league’s elite for a while.

It was mutually beneficial, and so was the departure Monday when the 69-yearold Coughlin resigned rather than force co-owners John Mara and Steve Tisch to fire him.

The Giants announced the decision one day after the Giants (6-10) capped their third straight losing season with a 35-30 defeat against Philadelphia, their third in a row and sixth in seven games.

“I met with (owners) John

Mara and Steve Tisch this afternoon, and I informed them that it is in the best interest of the organization that I step down as head coach,” Coughlin said in a statement.

“I strongly believe the time is right for me and my family, and ... the Giants organization.”

The move may signal the end of a 20-year NFL head coaching career for Coughlin, one of 13 coaches to win multiple Super Bowls. It also may

not. Coughlin loves to coach and if the right job popped up, who knows?

“It is difficult to come up with words adequate to describe the appreciation we have for everything Tom Coughlin has done for our franchise,” Mara said.

“In addition to delivering two Super Bowl titles, Tom represented us with class and dignity, and restored the Please see COUGHLIN | 11

Now the Bulldogs must figure out how to move forward without their primary playmaker. Nick Fitzgerald and Elijah Staley — who will both be redshirt sophomores next season — are the two main candidates to take over at quarterback.

The Bulldogs should return a large chunk of the defense, especially in the front seven.

They also return several running backs and receivers, though junior De’Runnya Wilson, who caught 60 passes for 918 yards and 10 touchdowns, indicated he would turn pro in an Instagram post.

statement. “It’s always been a dream of mine to play in the NFL, and I can’t thank my teammates, coaches and our great fans enough for their unbelievable support since the first day I stepped foot on campus.”

Treadwell’s final game at Ole Miss was one of his best. He caught three touchdown passes from Chad Kelly and even threw a 45-yard completion to Jordan Wilkins on a trick play as Ole Miss beat Oklahoma State 48-20 in the Sugar Bowl.

As Treadwell stood on the postgame podium following the Sugar Bowl win, Ole Miss fans chanted “One more year!” But his eventual decision to leave appeared inevitable.

“It was an honor to have coached Laquon, and our family will miss him greatly,” Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said.

“The commitment that he and others in his class made to our program three years ago has changed the culture of Ole Miss.”

Tunsil was suspended for the first seven games of this season after the NCAA deemed he received improper benefits. He started the final six games, helping the Rebels go 5-1 over that span.

“I’m proud of what my class accomplished, and I know even bigger things are ahead for this program,” Tunsil said.

“I cannot thank the fans enough for how they embraced me and made my time in Oxford so special.”

Freeze said that he will “always be grateful for the opportunity (Tunsil) gave us three years ago, and I look forward to seeing him walk across the stage at this year’s NFL Draft.”

Treadwell and Tunsil join defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche in declaring for the NFL draft.

Nkemdiche announced his decision last month after he was suspended from the Sugar Bowl following an incident in Atlanta when he fell from a hotel window and was charged with possession of marijuana.

pride to our entire organization. He has all the qualities you could ever ask for in a head coach, and set very high standards for whoever will succeed him.”

Coughlin, Tisch, Mara and general manager Jerry Reese plan to hold a news conference Tuesday morning.

The league’s oldest active coach and third-longest tenured among the 32 who finished the season, Coughlin came into 2015 knowing he had to get the Giants back to the postseason to keep his job. It didn’t happen because the Giants lost six games either in the final 1:14 of regulation or in overtime.

“Obviously, the past three years have not been what any of us expect, and as head coach, I accept the responsibility for those seasons,” he said.

Where the Giants go from here is uncertain.

They have traditionally hired from within or gotten someone with NFL coaching experience. A college coach would be a reach, especially a highprofile one who would want too much control.

Offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo, who the Giants and Eli Manning like, might need more seasoning.

Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo’s unit was last in the league rankings, although he had very little talent on the roster.

Former Falcons coach Mike Smith might be an option, and there are a lot of coordinators around the league who are potential candidates: Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson, Bears OC Adam Gase, Panthers DC Sean McDermott, and the Patriots’ Josh McDaniels (offense) and Matt Patricia

(defense).

Coughlin’s future was the main topic as players cleaned out their lockers Monday. The coach had spoken to the team earlier in the morning and many were saddened by the thought he might not be back. “It has been one of the greatest honors of my life and career to be led by Tom Coughlin; my life will forever be changed,” placekicker Josh Brown tweeted after the resignation.

This might have been one of Coughlin’s best years as a coach. He didn’t have a strong roster, and his defense spent the first two months with end Jason Pierre-Paul sidelined by a July 4 fireworks mishap that mangled his right hand.

Coughlin posted a 11093 record in 12 seasons with the Giants, winning three division titles in addition to his two league crowns. He was 72-64 in eight seasons with the then-expansion Jacksonville Jaguars, winning two division titles and taking them to two conference championship games in their first five seasons.

Ernie Accorsi and Mara hired Coughlin in 2004 after Jim Fassel was fired.

“Tom Coughlin is a great coach and an even better man,” Accorsi said. “He has left his mark on this great franchise, and his legacy of excellence is secure.”

A no-nonsense coach, Coughlin vowed to restore Giants pride and it didn’t take long. They won the division the following season and shocked the football world by knocking off the then-undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl in February 2008. The second came after the 2011 season, also against the Patriots.

Questions about move hang over Raiders

BY JOSH DUBOW AP Sports Writer

ALAMEDA, Calif.

— Heading into the offseason with uncertainty is old hat for the Oakland Raiders, who have had nine head coaches and 17 starting quarterbacks during a 13-year stretch of no winning record or playoff berths.

With quarterback Derek Carr and coach Jack Del Rio entrenched in their positions, the questions this offseason surround whether the team will play in Oakland or in the Los Angeles area next year.

“We’ll all find out at the same time,” Carr said Monday. “We don’t get any inside information.

We don’t have any right now. The thing that matters, though, is that no matter what’s in front of it, we’re always the Raiders.

No matter what city is put in front of that, we love Oakland. This is where I’ve played, so I love Oakland. I love our fans. But I know that Raider Nation is everywhere. It doesn’t

matter what’s put in front, we’re always the Raiders.”

The Raiders applied later Monday to relocate to the L.A. suburb of Carson.

The players and coaches spent the day packing up and putting closure on a 7-9 season that featured significant improvement for a franchise that had just 11 wins the previous three years combined.

The St. Louis Rams and San Diego Chargers also are expected to apply to move to the Los Angeles area. NFL owners will meet next week in Houston to vote on whether to allow one or two of the franchises to relocate next season.

The Rams are seeking to build a stadium in Inglewood, while the Raiders and Chargers want to share a stadium in Carson.

Most of the players deflected questions about a possible move by saying it is outside their control.

But Carr did say the biggest impact would be on the families of players and coaches.

“People always think about us, but they shouldn’t,” he said. “They should think about our wives, our kids. Some people have kids in school, so they have to move and those kinds of things. It affects them way more than it affects us. We just show up and work. That’s how we’ve been trained. That’s our process. It definitely affects them more.”

Defensive tackle Dan Williams said the uncertainty is much harder on married players with families than those without.

“Me as a single guy, I go with the flow,” he said.

“But I definitely enjoyed my short time here in Oakland. The fans have received me with open arms and I can feel the support here. They love the Raiders and whatever happens, happens, but at the same time if we stay here I’ll be more than happy.”

The Raiders played this past season on a one-year lease at the Oakland Coliseum and are seeking a new home. The Coliseum

is the only remaining NFL stadium to also be home to a baseball team and lacks many of the modern, money-making features of new stadiums.

While owner Mark Davis has expressed interest in staying in Oakland, the city has yet to come up with a firm financing plan to build a new stadium.

That has led to the interest in going back to Los Angeles, where the Raiders played from 1982-94.

Del Rio, who grew up in the East Bay attending games at the Oakland Coliseum, said: “I’m back home. I love the fact that I’m back home but it’s not my position. As a head football coach it’s my job to get this team ready to play and make sure we’re competitive.”

The Raiders also will undergo some turnover on their roster with the retirement of safety Charles Woodson after an 18-year career and 12 other players will be eligible to be unrestricted free agents in March.

Feds monitor armed protesters in Oregon The Associated Press

BURNS, Ore. — Federal authorities kept their distance and made no immediate attempt Monday to retake a wildlife refuge in the remote high desert of Oregon after armed anti-government protesters seized it as part of a decades-long fight over public lands in the West.

The group came to the frozen high desert of eastern Oregon to contest the prison sentences of two ranchers who set fire to federal land, but their ultimate goal is to turn over the property to local authorities so people can use it free of U.S. oversight.

People across the globe have marveled that federal authorities have not moved to take back the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Residents say they have not seen a large

presence of officers, and the government’s tactic generally is to monitor the situation from afar but leave them be as long as they don’t show signs of violence.

That’s how federal officials defused a highprofile 2014 standoff with Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy over grazing rights. Now Bundy’s two sons are leading the push in Oregon.

Ammon Bundy told reporters Monday that the group wants authorities to look into claims that local ranchers have been intimidated by the federal government.

Bundy spoke at the refuge south of Burns, Oregon. He said the group calls itself Citizens for Constitutional Freedom and has sent a “demand for redress” to local, state and federal officials.

They want a response within five days. Bundy did not say what the group would do if they get no response.

Reporters have seen roughly 20 people at the remote national facility.

The latest dispute traces its roots to the 1970s and the “Sagebrush Rebellion,” a move by Western states like Nevada to increase local control over federal land. While ranchers and others complain of onerous federal rules, critics of the push for more local control have said the federal government should administer the public lands for the widest possible uses, including environmental and recreation.

Residents of the tiny town of Burns are concerned about the potential for violence.

time resident and employee at the Reid Country Store, said he knows local law enforcement officials who fear their kids will be targeted by the group.

“I’m hoping most of it’s just muscle, trying to push,” he said. “But it’s a scary thing.”

If the situation turns violent, Bundy contends that it will be because of the federal government’s actions.

“I mean, we’re here to restore order. We’re here to restore rights, and that can go peacefully and easily,” he said.

The ranchers whose cause has been the rallying cry also reject the group’s support. Dwight and son Steven Hammond were convicted of arson three years ago for fires on federal land in 2001 and 2006. They

served their original sentences — three months for Dwight and one year for Steven — but a judge ruled that the terms were too short under federal minimum sentencing laws.

Both men were ordered back to prison for about four years each. They have said they plan to turn themselves in Monday.

Kendra M. Matthews, an attorney for the men, said Monday they will seek clemency from President Obama.

The Bundy brothers say the group plans to stay at the refuge as long as it takes. They declined to say how many people were at the property where several pickup trucks blocked the entrance and armed men wore camouflage and winter gear.

The FBI is working

with local and state authorities to “bring a peaceful resolution to the situation,” the bureau said in a statement late Sunday. It said it is the agency in charge and would not release details about the law enforcement response to ensure the safety of officers and those at the refuge.

Some are criticizing the lack of action, saying it is because those occupying the property are white.

Landon, the longtime Burns resident, said he sympathizes with the Bundys’ frustrations.

Landon was a logger until the federal government declared the spotted owl a protected species in the 1980s, damaging the local logging industry.

“It’s hard to discredit what they’re trying to do out there. But I don’t want anybody hurt,” he said.

CES show features smart-tech future The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Look around. How many computing devices do you see? Your phone, probably; maybe a tablet or a laptop. Your car, the TV set, the microwave, bedside alarm clock, possibly the thermostat, and others you’ve never noticed.

Much of that computing isn’t doing much while segregated into individual devices. But many of these gadgets have the potential to get smarter by connecting to their fellows, which in turn could open the door to a brave new “Internet of Things.”

To see where that might be taking us, there’s no better place than the annual gadget extravaganza formerly known as the Consumer Electronics Show — and now simply as CES. The show, which starts Wednesday in Las Vegas, is the place for companies large and small to show off new connected devices. These range from the seemingly trivial — for instance, smart umbrellas that message you if you leave them behind — to the undeniably helpful, such as navigation devices that display driving directions onto your windshield so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road.

According to the McKinsey Global Institute, a division of the consulting giant McKinsey & Co., the value created by connecting the world’s devices could hit $11 trillion annually by 2025, a mind-boggling sum that represents over half of U.S. economic output in a year.

Most of the value comes from industrial uses — like cleaner air from smarter energy use and fewer factory shut-downs due to smarter maintenance. But trillions in benefits are expected to come from consumerbought products: safer streets because of betterdriving cars, robots that take care of household chores and health and fitness trackers that let us know when our bodies need medical attention.

“There’s a big value in avoiding pain and suffering,” says report co-author Michael Chui.

Of course, people have been making big projections for the Internet of Things for years, yet progress remains halting and fragmentary. Major technology companies can purposefully make it tougher to interact with other companies’ gadgets for business reasons.

More data can mean less privacy.

In recent years, CES has begun catering more heavily to startups hop-

ing to break through the noise. The sprawling show has sections for wearable fitness gadgets, drones, autonomous vehicles, education, virtual reality, video games, robots, 3-D printers and smart homes.

That’s largely a reaction to the fact that many of technology’s biggest names have been noshows for some time. Apple Inc. has skipped the show since the 1990s, and Microsoft Corp.’s thenCEO Steve Ballmer gave the company’s last CES keynote in 2012. Google parent Alphabet Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. hold their own events to release products.

And the Consumer Technology Association that runs CES is aiming for attendance this year at or below last year’s record 176,000.

Shawn DuBravac, the CTA’s chief economist, argues the show’s maturity is a good thing, its focus transforming over the last two decades from what was “technologically possible” to what’s “technologically meaningful.” It’s no longer about a robot that can walk up steps.

It’s about robots that actually mow your lawn.

It’s worth bearing in mind that CES is first and foremost a venue for promoting the tech industry — at least the non-Google/Apple/Amazon/Microsoft part of it.

Sometimes the promotion falls flat; 3-D screen technology unveiled at CES in 2010 went from the next big thing to a mostly unused feature.

Netbooks introduced in 2009 took a back seat to the iPad released a year later. And concepts such as the smart home have taken a really long time to materialize.

For all we know, the Internet of Things could be next on that list. Last summer, two researchers described how they hacked into and took control of a Jeep Cherokee via its cellular connection to the Internet. Cybersecurity firm Rapid7 gave a failing grade to eight of nine popular baby monitors for simple and obvious weaknesses like failing to encrypt Internet-streamed video to prevent eavesdropping or using unchangeable passwords that malicious types could easily find online.

Such issues point to a deeper problem: Many would-be connected devices max out their capabilities doing one thing well, leaving little headroom for security protection that wasn’t ever necessary in an unconnected world. Such gadgets could offer hackers an easy route into home or work computers.
