Jacinto suspects courthouse break-in

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

JACINTO — The Jacinto Courthouse was the scene of an apparent break-in this week.

The Jacinto Foundation has been unable to find anything missing or any damage done

inside the historic structure, which is currently undergoing renovations.

Jacinto Foundation Executive Director Beth Whitehurst was alerted to the break-in about 3:45 a.m. Tuesday when a sheriff’s deputy on patrol hap-

pened to spot one of the east side doors standing open. It appeared the locked door had been forced open by prying one side of the hasp off the door, she said.

It happened sometime between Sunday afternoon, when

Whitehurst was at the courthouse, and the early a.m. hours Tuesday.

“As far as I know, in the 40 or so years that the Jacinto Foundation has run it, it is the first time that this has happened,” she said. “It has been heart-

Corinth officer among award recipients bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

TUPELO — Corinth Police Officer Kevin Parker Jr. was doing his duty last August when he suddenly found himself facing every law enforcement officer’s worst fear.

Confronting a suspect believed to have been involved in an earlier prowler call on Bell School Road, Parker was assaulted and ended up fighting for his life with the suspect who managed to turn the officer’s own gun on him and shoot him twice.

Parker, who has since recovered from his injuries and returned to work, was honored Wednesday by Crimestoppers of Northeast Mississippi with their Law Enforcement Purple Heart award.

Also recognized with the honor Wednesday were Iuka Police Chief Randy Stringer and Investigator Joseph Marlar who were both shot by a suspect at the Iuka Wal-Mart store.

Parker had been on the job only 10 months when he got the early morning call about a prowler at a home on the road.

A trio of agencies are bringing the wood.

Those wanting to add some trees to their land will have the chance to do so during the annual tree giveaway at the Alcorn County Courthouse on Friday, Feb. 12.

“We are working on getting some pines and hardwood for the giveaway,” said Patrick Poindexter with the Mississippi State Extension Service.

The extension service, Forestry Commission and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service are combining to distribute trees as part of Arbor Day. The annual giveaway is set

for 8:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Alcorn County Courthouse.

“We will be back at the courthouse again this year,” said Poindexter. “It seems we get a lot more traffic there and people are used to coming downtown.”

Organizers returned to the front of the courthouse steps last year after spending the two previous years at the Mississippi State Extension Service.

National Arbor Day is the last Friday in April, but most southern states celebrate the event in other months. Mississippi’s Arbor Day celebration is always scheduled for the second Friday in February.

‘Canterville Ghost’ to haunt theatre

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

A spirited play filled with visions of British grandeur, old castles and one restless apparition, “The Canterville Ghost” will take audiences on a journey from the golden grains and purple mountains of the U.S. to the charming shores of merry old England as Hiram Otis (Jason Matthews), an American minister relocates his family to a venerable estate.

Accepting a job offer from the Barringtons (Greg Bullard and Jamie Gambino), the man of God purchases Canterville Chase despite the warnings of the former owner and others.

He soon discovers Sir Simon

de Canterville (Jackson Turner), a late resident harboring a terrible secret, still roams the halls of the manor and has no intention of leaving.

Doing everything within his ghostly power to make his unwelcome house guests flee, Lord Canterville terrorizes the family, rattling chains and conjuring blood stains to stoke fear.

“Simon’s secrets and plans quickly unravel when he strikes up an unlikely friendship with Hiram’s daughter, Virginia Otis (Taylor Frye),” said CT-A Guest Director Casey Zappa. “The improbable fondness quickly thaws his ill intent and puts the haunt to rest.”

Based on the short story by

Irish novelist, playwright and poet, Oscar Wilde and adapted for the stage by Pat Cook, the play will make its debut to the Crossroads Playhouse stage at 7:30 p.m. tonight. Patrons will have other opportunities to watch at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 29 and Saturday, Jan. 30.

A 2 p.m. matinée will be presented on Sunday, Jan. 31.

“Audiences should be prepared to laugh and maybe shed a few tears as they discover the tricks we’ve set upon the Canterville mansion,” said Zappa.

“I hope the play helps those who see it realize that friendship and family can get you through even Please see GHOST | 2

Iuka Police Chief Randy Stringer (left) and Investigator Joseph Marlar (second from right) were honored by Crimestoppers of Northeast Mississippi Wednesday with the group’s Law Enforcement Purple Heart award for wounds they received during an altercation with a suspect last February at the Iuka Wal-Mart.

from the chest shot. The suspect remains at large and Parker was able to return to work around Halloween last year after spending several days in the hospital and more time at home recovering.

Parker said he never imagined he would find himself facing a life and death situation when he went to work that night.

“I just didn’t ever expect this to happen,” he said.

He’s grateful for all those who have helped him recover and

for the blessings of his recovery.

“I’m very thankful and blessed to be alive,” he said.

Parker’s father, Kevin Parker Sr. is a law enforcement veteran who actually sells the vests that ultimately saved his son’s life.

He said he knew it was bad news when the police chief called him around 5 a.m. He’s thankful the vest worked as it did and grateful his son was able to survive the dangerous situation.

Iuka’s Stringer and Marlar were wounded during an altercation in February that ended when police chased Howard

anonymous way for the public to share information with law enforcement and help solve crimes.

Crimestopers board member Bill Allan explained the organization works through a threepoint approach that requires the dedication and involvement of the community, media and law enforcement to help solve crimes and he expressed the group’s appreciation for the support they provide. He noted as of the end of 2015 the effort has brought in 4,895 tips resulting in 7,300 arrests and

1,466 closed cases since it began in 1992.

District Attorney John Weddle was the keynote speaker for Wednesday’s event and focused on the importance of service. He said he’s grateful for the sacrifices made by law enforcement and for the work Crimestoppers does to build relationships between law enforcement, the community and the media to help fight crime.

“The stronger the relationships are among all of these groups, the safer we can all feel in our own homes,” he said.

Disaster assistance for temporary housing, essential home repairs, replacement of personal property or for other serious needs does not count as income. It also doesn’t affect Social Security payments or Medicare benefits.

Tippah County’s FEMA Disaster Recovery Center shut down on Wednesday.

Storm victims have until March 4 to register with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for disaster assistance.

The following methods can be used: By phone, call 800621-FEMA (3362) from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Assistance is available in most languages. People who are deaf, hard of hearing or speech impaired may call (TTY) 800-462-7585 or online at DisasterAssistance.gov by computer, tablet, iPhone, Android or other mobile device.

Issued by Iuka police and heard before Tishomingo County Judge Joy Cobb included six counts of no proof of liability insurance, three counts of careless drive, three counts of simple assault, three counts of malicious mischief, four counts of public drunk, three counts of possession of paraphernalia and four counts of controlled substance.

Starkville police make large scale drug arrests STARKVILLE — Starkville Police and the U.S. Marshals Service made drug arrests during a search this week.

Starkville police say 50-yearold Timothy Wayne Williams of Jackson, Tenn., 22-year-old Alexander Douglas Hollingsworth of Starkville and 22-year-old Austin Columbus Waddell of Starkville were arrested after investigators discovered a large amount of cash and several pounds of marijuana.

The discovery was after a search warrant was enforced at a Colonel Muldrow Avenue dwelling.

Williams and Hollingsworth are charged with trafficking of a controlled substance. Waddell was charged with possession of marijuana.

Williams and Hollingsworth were transported to the Oktibbeha County Jail to await initial

court appearances. Waddell was cited and released.

Williams’ bond is set at $20,000. Hollingsworth’s is $10,000.

He’ll appear Wednesday, Feb. 3, during the quarterfinals.

SUV/tractor-trailer crash sends woman to hospital

COLUMBUS — A Starkville man was arrested for sending threatening messages to family members.

According to the Lowndes County Sheriff’s Department, 28-year-old Andrew Clifford Avery of Starkville was arrested Jan. 13 after deputies say he sent text messages that implied bodily harm to his family members.

He is charged with cyberstalking.

He was released a few days later on a $5,000 bond.

HARDEMAN COUNTY, Tenn.

— A woman was transported to a Memphis hospital after a Monday night crash involving a tractor-trailer south of Medon.

According to WBBJ, the woman was traveling south on State Route 18 around 9 p.m. when the Ford Explorer she was driving crossed the center line and hit the northbound tractor-trailer almost head-on, according to a preliminary accident report from the Tennessee Highway Patrol.

The woman, of Toone, was transported to Regional One in Memphis. She was not wearing a seat belt, according to the report. The driver of the tractor-trailer, of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, was not injured, according to the report.

No one has been charged in the wreck.

Preservation commission to offer tax credits TUPELO — Tupelo’s Historical Preservation Commission is helping find tax credits for owners of homes and buildings seeking historic status, according to WTVA. The group met Monday morning where members heard an expert talk about acquiring those tax credits and their benefits. There are state and federal tax credits available.

But the process takes time.

“It’s valuable for homeowners, its valuable. Its valuable for anyone that has commercial status. Anyone who is building a structure is eligible that has National Register status,” said Doyce Deas, a member of the Historical Preservation Commission.

MSU student to appear on TV game show STARVKILLE — Mississippi State University computer science major Michael Sieja from Huntsville, Ala., will represent the university on the longrunning TV game show “Jeopardy.!”

According to WTVA, Sieja says that although he’s excited about the opportunities being on the show presents, he’s just proud to represent MSU.

Text messages lead to cyberstalking charge

Police charge woman in store embezzlement OXFORD — Oxford Police arrest a woman for embezzlement.

On Monday, officers arrested 23-year-old Alecia Autman of Oxford.

This comes after charges were signed from the Home Depot store in Oxford she was working at saying she was caught taking more than $1,200.

Police report that the store had been suspicious of Autman since early December, but multiple incidents that were caught on video surveillance caused the store to press charges.

She has been fired.

Her bond is set at $5,000.

Police investigate Kilgore explosion HARDEMAN COUNTY, Tenn.

— An afternoon explosion rocked part of West Tennessee Tuesday, reported WBBJ. Investigators said the Chemring-Kilgore explosives plant in Toone was once again the source of the scare.

Emergency crews investigated at Chemring-Kilgore throughout the night after the explosion.

Investigators said it happened around 4:30 p.m., causing minimal damage to a building. Dozens of first responders were on scene within minutes.

Kigore, which makes flares and other explosives for the military, has had its fair share of incidents, including one that killed an employee in 2014.

Officials said there should be video of Tuesday’s incident, which should help investigators.

The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives will be on scene investigating the explosion to determine exactly what happened.

No Trump!

When the publisher of National Review Magazine, Jack Fowler, called and asked me to write 300 words on why I oppose Donald Trump for president of the United States, my first thought was about the Cal derision that was sure to come Thomas from Trump supporters.

I was not disappointed, or Columnist rather I am disappointed that no one who reacted negatively rebutted any of the arguments I, or the other contributors, made about why we think a President Trump would not pursue conservative goals.

Sounding like Trump, I was called a “loser” and someone for whom one writer said he had “lost all respect.” Sure, there were some who called me “brilliant” (I’m filing those away), but the name-callers resembled their political master. Trump also refused to address our arguments. Instead, he mislabeled the magazine a “dying newspaper” and said it had lost circulation and no one reads it.

Many are reading this issue.

One friend said he is convinced that Trump is “teachable and we can move him in the right direction.” On June 14, Trump will be 70 years old. By then, most people have long been settled in their worldview. Trump likes to cite Ronald Reagan, who was a Roosevelt Democrat before he famously said he didn’t leave the Democratic Party, the party left him. But Reagan spent many years honing his conservative principles in speeches, articles, and radio commentaries. He did not have, as some nominees to high office experience, a “confirmation conversion.”

Quoting myself would be redundant (read us all at National Review.com), so here is the key paragraph from the lead editorial: “Trump’s politics are those of an averagely well-informed businessman: Washington is full of problems; I am a problem-solver; let me at them. But if you have no familiarity with the relevant details and the levers of power, and no clear principles to guide you, you will, like most tenderfeet, get rolled.

Trump has shown no interest in limiting government, in reforming entitlements, or in the Constitution. He floats the idea of massive new taxes on imported goods and threatens to retaliate against companies that do too much manufacturing overseas for his taste.

His obsession is with ‘winning,’ regardless of the means – a spirit that is anathema to the ordered liberty that conservatives hold dear and that depends for its preservation on limits on government power.”

In the Feb. 1 issue of The Weekly Standard, Stephen F. Hayes writes: “The Republican frontrunner is a longtime liberal whose worldview might best be described as an amalgam of pop-culture progressivism and vulgar nationalism. His campaign rallies are orgies of self-absorption, dominated by juvenile insults of those who criticize him and endless boasting about his poll numbers.

He’s a narcissist and a huckster, an opportunist who not only failed to join conservatives in the big fights about the size and scope of government over the past several decades but, to the extent he was even aware of such battles, was often funding the other side, with a long list of contributions to the liberals most responsible for the dire state of affairs in the country, including likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.”

What is the counter argument to these substantive opinions? Anger against the “Washington establishment” is not one. Those who worship Trump have an obligation to say why he is worthy of their faith. Given his liberal background and poor explanations of why he now believes differently, how do his supporters know he will govern conservatively should he win the White House? He once said his sister, who is pro-abortion, would be an excellent nominee to the Supreme Court.

His story of how he supposedly became a pro-life convert lacks credibility.

Electing a president, especially in a dangerous world, is important work. Anger and emotion should not govern the choice. Considered judgment should. Trump appeals to the former, but not the latter.

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

Prayer for today My Father, I thank thee that thou hast endowed me with a will; help me to use it aright.

May I have the knowledge of what thou dost demand of my soul, that I may do my best with what thou hast given me. Help me that I may reach out for the highest ideals of life. Amen.

A verse to share “Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:” Deuteronomy 28:45

Rising to the situation The heft of the gold felt good in the palm. A smooth, super-size coin was passed from person to person. It was the Pulitzer Prize. A real one.

It is certainly the first one I’ve seen up close and personal, if you don’t count Hank Williams’ posthumous Pulitzer that I think I saw in Nashville. So I probably held the show-and-tell trophy a little too long when it came my turn.

Veteran editor Stan Tiner brought the prize to share with the audience. His former newspaper, The Sun Herald, won it in 2006 for coverage of Hurricane Katrina. “It belongs to you, too,” he generously told a group gathered at the University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Park campus in Long Beach.

“We never talked one time about the Pulitzer Prize,” Tiner said, describing the weeks of tough work immediately following Katrina.

When the big prize came anyway, the staff celebrated with sweet tea and cookies before quickly going back

to the job of covering the storm-ravaged coast.

You somehow can see those long Rheta weeks and Johnson months in Tiner’s eyes.

Columnist It changed him. Same as it changed everyone who was here in August of 2005.

“Katrina became the story of our lives,” he said, making a profound if simple statement. With one satellite phone and a borrowed press in another town, he made sure the paper never missed a day publishing.

“Often people rise when thrust into a situation,” Tiner said.

In a celebration of the 100th year of the Pulitzer, a panel of journalists and a “rock star” poet, Gulfport native Natasha Tretheway, pondered its power. Charles Overby, who led the Jackson newspapers to gold in 1983 for coverage of education reform, was moderator.

Charlie Mitchell, now a

University of Mississippi journalism professor, described the “mystical and affirming power” of seeing a newspaper printed immediately after any natural disaster. His former paper, the Vicksburg Post, won the 1954 Prize for its coverage of a deadly tornado, using rain water from gutters to process film.

His only claim to that Prize, Mitchell quipped, “was being born six months later.” Decades later when he was an editor in Vicksburg, “it was rarely mentioned, but you knew it was there.”

Not all Pulitzers go to newspapers, of course. Already a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, Tretheway first thought she would not write about a post-Katrina Mississippi coast, her home.

Then, she said, her “silence spoke too loud,” and the book “Beyond Katrina” was born. It dealt with her own family’s ordeals, including a grandmother who died before she could make her way back home and a brother who landed in prison on

drug charges.

I had read much of the post-Katrina coverage and was impressed. But hearing about the daily obstacles left me in awe.

Reporters were carefully allotted only enough of the newspaper’s precious gasoline to get to a story location and home again.

Editors, ad sales staff, reporters – all of them delivered the newspapers, distributed for free. Circulation doubled in the weeks after the storm. A tough job, producing a newspaper, on the most normal day. A logistical battlefield after Katrina.

Mitchell said it succinctly, newsman that he is, underscoring the point made by all about the power of Pulitzer Prizes: “It’s about keeping faith in the trust that people have in us ...”

The rest is just sweet tea and cookies.

Is the spectre of Trump haunting Davos?

The lights are burning late in Davos tonight.

At the World Economic Forum, keynoter Joe Biden warned global elites that the unraveling of the middle class in America and Europe has provided “fertile terrain for reactionary politicians, demagogues peddling xenophobia, antiimmigration, nationalist, isolationist views.”

Evidence of a nationalist backlash, said Biden, may be seen in the third parties arising across Europe, and in the U.S. primaries.

But set aside Joe’s slurs – demagogues, xenophobia.

Who really belongs in the dock here? Who caused this crisis of political legitimacy now gripping the nations of the West?

Was it Donald Trump, who gives voice to the anger of those who believe themselves to have been betrayed? Or the elites who betrayed them?

Can that crowd at Davos not understand that it is despised because it is seen as having subordinated the interests of the nations and people in whose name it presumes to speak, to advance an agenda that serves, first and foremost, its own naked self-interest?

The political and economic elites of Davos have grow rich, fat and powerful by setting aside patriotism and sacrificing their countries

on the altars of globalization and a New World Order.

No more astute esPat say has been Buchanan written this political Columnist season than that of Michael Brendan Dougherty in “This Week,” where he describes how, 20 years ago, my late friend Sam Francis predicted it all.

In Chronicles, in 1996, Francis wrote: “[S]ooner or later, as the globalist elites seek to drag the country into conflicts and global commitments, preside over the economic pastoralization of the United States, manage the delegitimization of our own culture, and the dispossession of our people, and disregard or diminish our national interest and national sovereignty, a nationalist reaction is almost inevitable and will probably assume populist form when it arrives. The sooner it comes, the better.”

What we saw through a glass darkly then, we now see face to face.

Is not Trump the personification of the populistnationalist revolt Francis predicted?

And was it not presidents and Congresses of both par-

ties who mired us in wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen, and negotiated the trade deals that have gutted American industry?

The bleeding of factories and manufacturing jobs abroad has produced the demoralization and decline of our middle class, along with the wage stagnation and shrinking participation in the labor force.

Is Trump responsible for that? Is Socialist Bernie Sanders, who voted against all those trade deals?

If not, who did this to us?

Was it not the Bush Republicans and Clinton Democrats?

Americans never supported mass immigration.

It was against their will that scores of millions, here legally and illegally, almost all from Third World countries have poured into the U.S. Who voted for that?

Religious, racial, cultural diversity has put an end to the “bad” old America we grew up in, as we evolve into the “universal nation” of Ben Wattenberg, who once rhapsodized, “The non-Europeanization of America is heartening news of an almost transcendental quality.”

James Burnham, the exTrotskyite and Cold War geostrategist whose work Francis admired, called

World Wide Web: www.dailycorinthian.com To Sound Off: E-mail: email: news@dailycorinthian.com Circulation 287-6111 Classified Adv. 287-6147

liberalism “the ideology of Western suicide.”

If the West embraces, internalizes and operates on the principles of liberalism, Burnham wrote, the West will meet an early death.

Among the dogmas of liberalism is the unproven assumption that peoples of all nationalities, tribes, cultures, creeds can coexist happily in nations, especially in a “creedal” nation like the USA, which has no ethnic core but rather is built upon ideas.

A corollary is that “diversity” is the future of the west and the model for mankind.

Yet, large and growing minorities in every country of Europe, and now in America, believe that not only is this proposition absurd, the end result could be national suicide.

Joe Biden’s dismissal that it is reactionaries who oppose what the progressives of Davos believe is not entirely wrong. For as Georges Bernanos wrote, when Europe was caught between Bolshevism and fascism: To be a reactionary means simply to be alive, because only a corpse does not react any more – against the maggots teeming on it.

Booneville promotes neighborhood watch

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington @dailycorinthian.com

BOONEVILLE — Residents of the City of Hospitality are being urged to come together to fight crime.

A large crowd of concerned citizens gathered at Booneville City Hall Tuesday to learn how to get neighborhood watch programs started in their areas. City Prosecutor Daniel Tucker praised those who have begun their own programs and outlined plans for the city to support watch efforts and crack down on crime. He said he wants to see the city continue to be a safe place for people to raise their families, but crime in certain neighborhoods makes that hard. He encouraged residents to join forces with the city to make things better.

“It takes your involvement to get this started,” he said.

Tucker said the city plans to designate two police officers as contacts for the watch programs so those involved have a regular point of contact with the department to share their concerns and get help resolving problems.

The city is committed to supporting the efforts by prosecuting crimes so those committing them will know there are consequences.

“There is no mercy.

It is 100 percent prosecution for every crime committed. There will be zero tolerance and there will be no breaks,” said Tucker.

Alderman Mark McCoy told the residents communication is key.

“If you don’t call and tell us we can’t help. This is just the beginning and we’re not going to stop here.”

Mark McCoy Alderman

He and his fellow board members want to see problems resolved, and active reporting of concerns is the first step.

“If you don’t call and tell us we can’t help. This is just the beginning and we’re not going to stop here,” he said.

Police Chief Michael Ramey said the two community officers will work closely with the watch programs to get to know the residents and build relationships. He said he wants everyone in the city to feel comfortable coming to the department when they have a concern and to know it will be addressed.

They’ve already seen some success with addressing some issues and he said he and the entire department are committed to cracking down on crime and making neighborhoods safer and better.

A followup meeting is set for 6 p.m. on Feb. 9 in the courtroom at the Prentiss County Justice Center. By that time neighborhoods interested in the watch program should have designated one or more persons as leaders who can attend this meeting and continue to work with the city on organizing.

One issue that was raised during the meeting was lack of speed limit signs in certain ar-

State could debate firing squad as execution method Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s attorney general is asking lawmakers to approve the firing squad, electrocution or nitrogen gas as alternate methods of execution in case the state is prevented from doing lethal injections.

Democrat Jim Hood also says he wants to block public access to names of people who sell lethal injection drugs to the state and those who help carry out executions.

States are struggling to obtain execution drugs

since European pharmaceutical companies began blocking the use of their products for lethal injections.

Executions are on hold in Mississippi because the state’s supply of lethal injection drugs expired. In October, Ohio delayed executions for a year while it searches for the drugs.

Last spring, Oklahoma approved nitrogen gas and Utah approved the firing squad as alternate methods of execution if the drugs are unavailable.

Praising everyone for their warmth and generosity, Mrs. Mississippi America 2010 expressed her appreciation for all who helped make last year’s pageant a success.

“The residents and business owners of Corinth and surrounding areas have been amazing,” she said. “It was a phenomenal experience for the girls and one they couldn’t stop gushing about afterward.”

“We are so thankful for everything everyone has done to roll out the red carpet for us and make each contestant feel special and acknowledged,” she added.

A weekend-long event, finals will be held at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 28 at the historic Coliseum Civic Center, located at 404 Taylor Street in downtown Corinth. Interior doors will open at 2:15 p.m.

“It’s not too late to sign up as a contestant,” said

Delayna Bridges, director of the Mrs. Mississippi America and Mrs. Tennessee America Pageants and a former 1993 Mrs. Tennessee America. “The deadline to register is Monday, Feb. 1.There will be a $600 entry fee and an ad sales requirement which you may be able to get sponsored.”

In order to participate, contestants must be at least 18 years of age, married, a resident for at least three months in the state they are representing and a person of good moral character.

Admission to the pageant is $35 for adults and children over six. Children six and under will receive free admission.

McCoy said he wants residents to know they can call the street department at 728-7018 and ask someone to come out and check on the signs and replace them or add them if needed.

Authorities: Activists should leave wildlife refuge Associated Press

BURNS, Ore. — A day after the leaders of an armed antigovernment group were arrested, authorities on Wednesday urged a handful of activists remaining at an Oregon wildlife refuge to abandon the site they have occupied for more than three weeks, saying it was “time to move on.”

Meanwhile, details began to emerge about the confrontation that occurred on a remote highway between here and the small town of John Day. Followers of Ammon Bundy gave conflicting accounts of how one of the men in the two-vehicle convoy was killed during a traffic stop.

One of Bundy’s followers said Robert Finicum charged at FBI agents, who then shot him. A member of the Bundy family said Finicum did nothing to provoke the agents.

There was no immediate way to confirm either account.

Authorities refused to release any details about the encounter or even to verify that it was Finicum who was killed. It was unclear if Finicum or the oth-

ers were armed, or if they exchanged gunfire with officers.

Federal agents surrounded the refuge where the remnants of Bundy’s group were still refusing to give up on the occupation that began Jan. 2.

Although roadblocks were in place around the nature preserve, FBI agent Greg Bretzing told reporters that the people could leave through checkpoints “where they will be identified.”

He did not say whether any of them face arrest. He said negotiators were available to talk if they have “questions or concerns.”

A confrontation Tuesday afternoon on a remote road north of Burns resulted in the arrest of Ammon Bundy and four others. Two other occupiers were arrested Tuesday in Burns and another in Arizona.

Details were sketchy about what happened when FBI agents and Oregon state troopers stopped Bundy and others in his group as they traveled to a planned meeting with nearby residents.

“TWO WAYS” In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus spoke of two very different ways we may travel through this life. They may be referred to very simply as the broad way and the narrow way. (Matthew 7:13, 14) Unlike the many routes we might choose to take a vacation, or a business trip, Jesus did not give his followers a multitude of routes to follow, depending on their personal preferences. Since there are only the two, we should examine what Jesus said and determine which is the better option.

There is no other option available than one of these two.

There is at the outset, encouragement from Jesus to enter the strait gate. The little word strait, means fixed and narrow. It is a passage that requires purpose and discipline. One must be deliberate in his or her entrance. In addition, Jesus says in verse fourteen that the way, or path, is narrow. It may be, at times, difficult to travel, but not because of the heavy traffic, because Jesus said, “ few there be that find it”. The toils, whatever they may be, and the troubles, no matter how frequent, are worth enduring, because this “road less traveled” will lead us to life.

The “broad way”, on the other hand, is a way that is easily entered through a wide gate. Jesus said it is the way of the many. None of us likes to be thought of as “weird” or “out of step”, and so it may be a temptation to fall in with the crowd, and just go along because “everybody is doing it”. The warning of Exodus 23:2 is here appropriate: “Thou shalt not follow the multitude in doing evil.” Caution should be used when we choose the path of life because verse 13 suggests that at the end of the broad way there is destruction.

One of the blessings of today, is that if I am traveling the way to destruction, with God’s guidance through His word, and the blood of Jesus to wash away my sins, I can change the way I am traveling and follow the path to life eternal.

We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

Harney County Sheriff Dave Ward said Wednesday that he was disappointed to see the traffic stop “that was supposed to bring a peaceful resolution to this ended badly,” with the one death.

But he defended the operation, saying multiple law-enforcement agencies put together “the best tactical plan they could.”

Bundy followers took to social media to offer conflicting accounts of Finicum’s final moments.

In a video posted to Facebook, Mike McConnell said he was driving the vehicle carrying Ammon Bundy and another occupier, Brian Cavalier. He said Finicum was driving a truck and with him were Ryan Bundy — Ammon’s brother — as well as three others.

He said the convoy was driving through a forest when they were stopped by agents in heavy-duty trucks. He said agents first pulled him out of the vehicle, followed by Ammon Bundy and Cavalier.

When agents approached

the truck driven by Filicum, he drove off with officers in pursuit. McConnell said he did not see what happened next, but heard from others who were in that vehicle that they encountered a roadblock.

The truck got stuck in a snowbank, and Finicum got out and “charged them. He went after them,” McConnell said.

Relatives of Ammon Bundy offered similar accounts, but they claimed Finicum did nothing to provoke FBI agents.

Briana Bundy, a sister of Ammon Bundy, said he called his wife after his arrest. He said the group was stopped by state and federal officers.

She said people in the two vehicles complied with instructions to get out with their hands up.

“LaVoy shouted, ‘Don’t shoot.

We’re unarmed,’” Briana Bundy said in an interview with the AP. “They began to fire on them. Ammon said it happened real fast.”

“Ammon said, ‘They murdered him in cold blood. We did everything they asked, and they

murdered him. We complied with their demands,’” she said.

McConnell had a different perspective.

“Any time someone takes off with a vehicle away from law enforcement after they’ve exercised a stop, it’s typically considered an act of aggression, and foolish,” he said in the Facebook video.

McConnell said he was questioned by authorities, and he believes he was not charged because he was not considered a leader of the group.

Briana Bundy confirmed that McConnell was in the convoy on Tuesday.

The sheriff said it will take a while for the area to heal.

The occupation “has been tearing our community apart.

It’s time for everybody in this illegal occupation to move on,” Ward said. “There doesn’t have to be bloodshed in our community.”

The Bundys are the sons of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who was involved in a high-profile 2014 standoff with the government over grazing rights.

Snyder pledges help to Flint Associated Press

FLINT, Mich. — Flint residents coping with lead contamination will be cleared to drink unfiltered water again only when outside experts determine it is safe, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder said Wednesday, acknowledging their mistrust of government officials while saying a full replacement of the city’s pipes is not imminent.

A lawsuit filed earlier in the day by environmental and civil rights groups asked a federal judge to order the prompt replacement of all lead pipes in Flint’s water system at no cost to customers. Snyder did not rule out the eventual replacement of the lead service lines leading from water mains, but said it is a longer-term consideration.

In the meantime, Flint hired a Virginia Tech professor who helped expose the lead problem despite initial skepticism from state regulators to now oversee water testing.

Professor Marc Edwards also was appointed by Snyder to a committee that will set in place longterm solutions.

4 officers, inmate charged in incidents COOKEVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says four Middle Tennessee correction officers and one inmate have been charged in connection with two separate incidents at the Morgan County Jail.

A TBI statement says a grand jury returned indictments on Monday charging correction officer Denny Hughett with official misconduct and coercion of a witness and inmate Samuel Jennings with aggravated assault. The statement says the charges stem from a Nov. 21 incident in which an inmate’s family accused officers of encouraging an assault and of not intervening during the confrontation.

The TBI said the other incident occurred on Dec. 12 when correction officers improperly attempted to restrain an inmate. The grand jury charged officer Joe D. Shoffner Jr. with official misconduct and assault, and officers Garren Austin Luke Cooper and Michael Alan Lloyd with assault.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether the men have attorneys. Â

Clinton presses for debate before N.H. ADEL, Iowa — Hillary Clinton pressed the Democratic National Committee on Wednesday to add a presidential debate before next month’s New Hampshire primary, seeking another high-profile exchange with rival Bernie Sanders.

The push by Clinton for more debates — and Sanders’ resistance to adding another forum — underscores his strength in Iowa and New Hampshire and the heightened concern within Clinton’s team that she could lose both of the first early voting states.

Clinton is trailing Sanders in New Hampshire and locked in a tight contest in Monday’s Iowa caucuses, raising the possibility that the Democratic front-runner could lose the first two presidential contests. Adding another debate before

New Hampshire’s Feb. 9 primary would give her a large television audience that might help her reach undecided voters. “I am, you know, anxious if we can get something set up to be able to be there. So let’s try to make it happen,�

Clinton said in a phone interview with MSNBC, which announced the new debate with the Union Leader, New Hampshire’s largest newspaper.

Clinton said she wanted DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz to approve the debate and for Sanders to join her.

But both have resisted.

Amy Dacey, the DNC’s chief executive officer, said on Twitter earlier Wednesday that “Democrats have a debate schedule, and we’re sticking to it.�

Sanders’ campaign has said it has no plans to participate because the DNC hasn’t sanctioned the proposed debate. The Vermont senator’s campaign has warned it could jeopardize their ability to participate in upcoming debates scheduled in Wisconsin and Florida.

Sanders wants the DNC to consider adding 3 or 4 more debates after the ones currently scheduled, campaign manager Jeff Weaver said Tuesday. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, who has long criticized the DNC’s debate schedule, supports adding the debate in New Hampshire.

For months, O’Malley and some of Sanders’ supporters have claimed that the national committee is rigging the schedule to benefit Clinton, scheduling fewer debates to avoid undermining her national lead in the polls.

Many of the televised events have been held on weekend evenings, giving it a limited audience. Â

Deputy charged in rights violation probe OCALA, Fla. — A former Florida deputy sheriff has been charged with violating the rights of a suspect by excessive force.

Federal prosecutors said Wednesday that Jesse Terrell was indicted by a federal grand jury.

The indictment says that 33-year-old Terrell hit and kicked the unidentified suspect in the head, neck and shoulders in August 2014.

Terrell was fired last year after surveillance video of the encounter was made public.

Four other deputies involved in the confrontation resigned from the force. Two of the deputies have pleaded guilty and are cooperating with authorities.

Terrell’s attorney, Charles Holloman, said in an email that Terrell planned to plead not guilty. Â

Fire closes historic New Orleans street NEW ORLEANS — A stubborn six-alarm fire blanketed part of downtown New Orleans in eye-stinging smoke early Wednesday and forced the closure of historic Canal Street between the city’s central business district and the French Quarter.

The blaze broke out in a largely empty four-story building and spread to an adjacent building.

Flames were no longer visible and smoke had greatly diminished by daybreak, but firefighters kept steady streams of water pouring onto the structures from ladder trucks and from the street.

The fire was declared under control shortly before noon. City officials said they hoped to open at least some lanes of the closed stretch of Canal in the afternoon.

Earlier, structural damage to the buildings was so bad that firefighters were withdrawn from the interiors. “A collapse is definitely a concern,� fire chief Timothy McConnell said.

No injuries were reported, and no evacuations were ordered. But some nervous residents of an apartment building around the corner decided to get out amid acrid smoke and temperatures in the 40s.

The scene is around the corner from the tony Roosevelt Hotel.

It’s near upscale apartment buildings and the Orpheum and the Saenger, ornate early 20th century theaters that were restored to their earlier grandeur after Hurricane Katrina.

4 state prison guards arrested JACKSON — Four state prison guards face charges of having contraband on prison grounds.

The Mississippi Department of Corrections said two of the latest arrests occurred Monday at Central Mississippi Correctional Facility in Pearl.

Avery Shelby, 22, of Brandon and Charlie Foreman III, 26, of Byram were booked with possession of narcotic drugs within facilities. Officials said they were arrested after a search of their vehicle found several grams of marijuana and multiple Green Dot pre-paid credit card numbers, which inmates in some places have been accused of using to bribe guards.

Shelby also faces a charge of possessing prohibited items by someone other than offenders. “There is zero tolerance for contraband whether in the hands of inmates or staff,�

Commissioner Marshall Fisher said in a news release. “I am committed to ensuring that the Mississippi Department of Corrections maintains the highest standards among its officers.�

The department said that, in a separate case, correctional officer trainee Randy Wallace, 22, of Jackson, was booked Jan. 20 with possessing prohibited items by someone other than offenders and possessing a controlled substance.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for our Crossroads Magazine - Healthy Living edition coming inside the Daily Corinthian on Saturday, followed by our 2016 Bridal Planner coming inside the Daily Corinthian on Sunday.

Long marriage is left in limbo by wife’s new attraction to women D E A R ABBY: After 27 years of marriage, my wife told me she is attracted to other womAbigail en. To my Van Buren knowledge, she has acted on this Dear Abby only once.

Every day I wonder where our relationship stands. One day she can’t see herself without me; the next, she says we should divorce. I don’t know if I should end this or wait to see where it goes.

I will need counseling if we divorce, but currently I can’t afford it. Yes, I love her, but what matters most to me is that she is happy. I don’t have anyone else to talk to about this. Any suggestions? -- MR. D. IN CALIFORNIA DEAR MR. D.: After 27 years of marriage I can only imagine how shocking your wife’s revelation must have been for you.

That she is ambivalent about your marriage must be deeply painful because you are being treated like a yo-yo.

The book “The Other Side of the Closet,” by Amity Pierce Buxton, Ph.D., has been mentioned before in my column and has proven helpful to others in

your situation. There is also a support group called the Straight Spouse Network (www.straightspouse.org), which offers emotional support after a wife or a husband comes out as yours did. Please don’t wait to read the book and visit the website. I think you will find them comforting.

DEAR ABBY: I have a large family consisting of many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Looking through my photo albums, I can’t complain that I don’t have enough photos of my children, but it’s a parade of tongues.

Their mothers all post photos on social media with their tongues hanging out. The children then mimic their moms and their photos are disgusting as well. I would love to have photos of my children minus the slimy organ.

Is this accepted behavior in our society now? Please, can someone enlighten me as to the inspiration of this repulsive action? -- CLOSED-MOUTHED IN THE SOUTH DEAR CLOSED-MOUTHED: I suspect it originated back in the 1970s when Gene Simmons of Kiss licked his way to the top of the music charts. Lately, Miley Cyrus took up the torch and is keeping it burning brightly. Children often stick out their tongues

when they are forced to have their picture taken or are trying to be funny, but I don’t think Gene and Miley fall into that category.

Quite the opposite, in fact.

DEAR ABBY: Sometimes I’ll call a close friend or business associate for lunch with the goal of having a quality one-on-one conversation on a wide range of topics. After the lunch is set, more than one of them has then invited other people I know, but with whom I do not have the same quality relationship. It is not a pleasant surprise.

I find it irritating, because it invariably changes the dynamic of the conversation. I never say anything about it, but it bothers me. Is my reaction reasonable, or should I just roll with this? -THWARTED IN DALLAS DEAR THWARTED: Your reaction is perfectly reasonable.

The first time it happened, you should have shared your feelings with the person who did it.

It has happened again because you didn’t speak up. Now you will have to warn the person you’re inviting in advance.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Since you’re not dead-set on a certain destination today, why not take hints from the environment? Figure out which way the wind is blowing, and angle yourself to put this weather to your greatest advantage.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

If you don’t believe your worth, undervalue yourself or simply settle for far less than you want or deserve then there is a great potential to make mistakes.

Don’t let it happen.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The road to greatness isn’t always a rough road; often times it’s just a long one. Even though you are easily distracted by the pretty things, people and ideas around you, you also have tenacity. Dig for it. Find it. Resist temptation.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Would you be surprised to know that you are on the mind of a certain someone as the first thought of the morning, the last thought of the day and at least 700 thoughts between those?

Well, it’s true.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t waste time getting angry, or even frustrated, with those who can’t help but be who they are. You’re the same. Why become disheartened? You’re not always going to get it right. Have patience. Be inwardly gentle.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There is much that is well within your rights, within the available opportunities and within what is socially acceptable that you will nonetheless refrain from doing, out of modesty. This is commendable.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You try and look at something for what it is and find only contradictions. Now try looking at yourself. You’ll find that you don’t altogether know what you are capable of. There is great potential in this day to astound yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You can handle your work well and still pace yourself. Don’t spend all your best energy between 9 and 5, because from 5 to 9 will offer some prime opportunities for you to shine.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). One of your challenges in this lifetime is to balance an unshakeable confidence in your talents with the humility necessary to develop them to their full potential. A hard teacher will come along to help you with this.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There is nothing to be gained by pushing against the minor setbacks of the day or giving them even one iota more attention than they deserve, which is very, very, little indeed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Even though you are probably finding yourself in a position of defense, a defensive stance will only cause offensive action from the other side. Lay down your arms, stay calm and add a little feeling in with all those facts.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

There are certain things you may never learn, if only because they are so outside of your nature that you can’t begin to figure out how to emulate the motions. There’s a better fit out there; all you have to do is choose it.

Amazon delivers its latest quarterly report card today.

Financial analysts anticipate that the e-commerce powerhouse’s earnings and revenue improved sharply in the fourth quarter from a year earlier.

Amazon likely benefited from a surge in holiday gift shopping in November and December, when consumers flocked to the Internet, generating around $105 billion in sales at online retail sites.

PICKLES

Dear Annie: When I met my husband many years ago, he had just returned from Vietnam. His mind was shaky, and he was a chain smoker and a serious alcoholic. We have maintained a comfortable, peaceful relationship. I could not tolerate drunkenness, so he stopped. But what seemed left was an unaffectionate, unemotional robot. He has never hugged me, held my hand or actually kissed me (only quickly, during our silent, intimate moments).

Compliments? Never. He never bought a ring for me, which not only is embarrassing but also makes me feel as though I have no value to him.

He is kind to the children, provides meagerly but adequately, and makes no waves.

We simply exist. I settled for this and it would hurt too many nice people for me to go my own way.

But my point in writing to you is to save other women: Think before getting involved with a cold, unfeeling person.

Counseling is out. We never have a conversation.

I truly believe his lifelong chain-smoking has affected his mental and physical health. — Too Little, Too Late Dear Too Little: We wouldn’t be so quick to blame the chainsmoking. While it has

Annie’s Mailbox undoubtedly affected his health, it is more likely that his experience in Vietnam (and possibly his upbringing) had a greater impact on his emotional health. Many of those who have served in wars suffer from PTSD and never asked for or received treatment.

Your husband could be one of them.

We’re not going to give you a lecture on expecting an unaffectionate, robotic man to change once he marries. It’s too late for that. And of course, if you could get your husband to visit a nearby VA to ask about PTSD counseling, that might be tremendously helpful. But you are the one who wrote. We think you deserve better.

The fact that leaving him might cause “nice people” to be hurt is not a good enough reason for you to make such a lifelong sacrifice. Get counseling for yourself, and see what choices you have.

Dear Annie: I am a hunter, and I understand how

important each of the very few days available for deer hunting is to a fellow hunter. “Left Out in the Cold” said her husband misses holidays and Mother’s Day because they interfere with hunting season. She didn’t say how far away her husband travels to hunt.

If he is not too far, he could perhaps hunt close to home in the morning and return for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner later in the evening after legal hunting hours.

However, if he is unable to compromise and insists on missing holidays, then I suggest that she just go to the relatives without him and enjoy herself without giving him a second thought.

I have to say, the only time I could justify having Christmas postponed would be if an important family member were in the service or in the hospital. Sounds to me that “Left Out’s” entire marriage might need some professional intervention.

— “Dear” Beats “Deer” Anytime Dear Anytime: Compromise is always possible, but only if both parties are agreeable.

When one person is not, the other has the choice of changing one’s situation, accepting what cannot be fixed or being perpetually upset.

A WEEKLY SPIN AROUND THE WORLD OF COLLEGE HOOPS

1. THE YEAR OF NO FAVORITES CONTINUES By the time Virginia Tech took North Carolina to the wire in Blacksburg on Sunday, the only upset seemed to be that there was no upset â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Tar Heels eked out a 75â&#x20AC;&#x201C;70 win over the Hokies. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of week it was for teams at the top. Seven of the top eight teams in the AP poll lost this week, starting with Oklahomaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss Monday at Iowa State and ending with Villanovaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss at home in overtime to Providence on Sunday afternoon. In between, Kansas, Xavier, West Virginia, Maryland and SMU all lost, too.

The preseason rankings were marked by a lack of consensus at the top. With seven weeks until Selection Sunday, the picture is no more clear.

2. KENTUCKY ANSWERED THE WAKE-UP CALL Maybe last Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 75â&#x20AC;&#x201C;70 loss to Auburn was rock bottom for Kentucky. In the aftermath, the Wildcats had their best week in a while. Kentucky left little doubt in comfortable wins over Arkansas on the road and Vanderbilt in Lexington. Guards Tyler Ulis and Jamal Murray were brilliant as usual this week, and even freshman Skal Labissiere (11 points, three blocks against David Fox Arkansas) hinted at his potential. Most Athlon Sports important, Kentucky has been more careSenior Writer ful with the ball. The Wildcats had 13 total @davidfox615 turnovers against the Hogs and Dores. Before this week, Kentucky had been averaging 13 turnovers per game :DV WKLV ZHHN D VLJQ RI D WHDP Âż JXULQJ RXW KRZ WR ZLQ RU D Ă&#x20AC; XNH LQ DQ RWKHUZLVH GLVDSSRLQWLQJ VHDVRQ"

3. THE BIG 12 IS A SLUGFEST Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a recap of what was just another week in the Big 12: National No. 1 Oklahoma lost at Iowa State on Monday. On Tuesday, No. 3 Kansas lost at Oklahoma State to a Cowboys team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been without its best player, Phil Forte, since November. And on Wednesday, No. 6 West Virginia lost at home to Texas. By Saturday, all three looked like top-10 teams again. OU beat %D\ORU RQ WKH URDG :HVW 9LUJLQLD VFRUHG WKH Âż QDO HLJKW SRLQWV LQ WKH FORVLQJ minute in a four-point win at Texas Tech.

Iowa State is the only team in the league riding a winning streak (three games), and TCU (four games) is the only team on a losing streak.

4. IOWA CAN STAKE ITS CLAIM AS THE BIG TENâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BEST Two weeks ago, Iowa completed a season sweep of Michigan State. On Sunday, the Hawkeyes did the same with Purdue. The Hawkeyes are 7â&#x20AC;&#x201C;0 in the Big Ten and left little doubt in their most recent matchups with a full-strength Michigan State and Purdue. The next major test is Thursday at Maryland, a matchup that will pit two National Player of the Year contenders in forward Jarrod Uthoff for Iowa and point guard Melo Trimble for Maryland. If Iowa can get to February at 8â&#x20AC;&#x201C;0 in the Big Ten, the Hawkeyes have to be considered a legitimate Final Four contender â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t already.

5. INDIANA IS RED HOT After starting 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3, Indiana is riding a 12-game winning streak, pounding Illinois and Northwestern last week by a combined 66 points to improve to Âą LQ WKH %LJ 7HQ -XVW KRZ JRRG LV ,QGLDQD" :HÂśUH QRW VXUH 'XULQJ WKLV win streak, the Hoosiers have faced just one top-50 opponent (Notre Dame in Indianapolis). Indiana is talented and balanced and is playing far better defense than a year ago. But the Hoosiers are also prone to turning the ball over. Indiana may get a better idea of where it stands in the next three games with road trips to Wisconsin and Michigan, but IU wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t face the best of the Big Ten until mid-February when the Hoosiers face Iowa and Michigan State.

6. MATT COSTELLO IS A CLOSER One of the best images of the week was 6'9" Michigan State forward Matt &RVWHOOR KRLVWLQJ FRDFK 7RP ,]]R LQ WKH Âż QDO PRPHQWV RI D Âą ZLQ RYHU No. 7 Maryland, ending the Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; three-game skid.

Suddenly, the Spartans look the part of a Final Four team again.

PRIME TIME PLAYERS Iowa State guard Monte Morris had 20 points, seven rebounds and three assists in the Cyclonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 82â&#x20AC;&#x201C;77 win over No. 1 Oklahoma on Monday and 18 points and six assists in a 73â&#x20AC;&#x201C;60 win at TCU on Saturday. â&#x20AC;Ś Duke guard Grayson Allen led the Blue Devils as they ended their three-game losing streak with an 88â&#x20AC;&#x201C;78 win at NC State. Allen had 20 points, seven rebounds and seven assists with just one turnover. â&#x20AC;Ś Temple guard Devin Coleman made all seven of his 3-point shots and went 1-for-1 from inside the arc for 23 points to hand SMU its ďŹ rst loss of the season. â&#x20AC;Ś Oregon State guard Gary Payton II had one of the best stat sheet-stufďŹ ng efforts of the season with 22 points, 15 rebounds, eight assists and four steals in an 85â&#x20AC;&#x201C;70 win over USC. â&#x20AC;Ś Xavier forward James Farr helped

the Musketeers bounce back from their second loss of the season with 24 points, 15 rebounds, four assists and three blocks in an 84â&#x20AC;&#x201C;76 win over Seton Hall. â&#x20AC;Ś Three days after a lopsided loss to Vanderbilt, Tennessee turned around to beat a ranked opponent for the ďŹ rst time in more than a year with a 78â&#x20AC;&#x201C;69 win over South Carolina. Kevin Punter topped 30 points for the third time this year with 36 points against the Gamecocks. â&#x20AC;Ś South Florida guard Jahmal McMurray scored 30 points in a 71â&#x20AC;&#x201C;62 upset of Houston on Saturday. The Bullsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; win was their ďŹ rst since Dec. 16 and only their fourth victory overall. Houston has lost four in a row after starting 13â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 this season. â&#x20AC;Ś Oakland guard Kahlil Felder, the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s secondleading scorer, had 29 points and 14 assists in a 111â&#x20AC;&#x201C;95 win at Green Bay. Felder has scored at least 20 points in every game this season.

Guard Tyler Ulis helped Kentucky turn its fortunes with 45 points and 10 assists combined in two wins last week.

7. A NEW CHALLENGE FOR SMU Before Sunday, Larry Brown could motivate his SMU team with a chase for history. An undefeated season ending March 6 would be the best the Mustangs could do as they sit out the postseason due to NCAA sanctions. Temple beat SMU 89â&#x20AC;&#x201C;80 on Sunday, dropping the Mustangs to 18â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1. SMU is clearly the top team in the American, but now that the allure of an undefeated season is gone, will the 0XVWDQJV FRQWLQXH WR SOD\ WKDW ZD\"

8. CAL GOT A WIN IT NEEDED Despite missing the postseason last year, Cal was a trendy pick to contend in the Pac-12 thanks to the addition of talented freshmen Jaylen Brown and Ivan Rabb to a veteran core. That never materialized as the Bears started 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 in the Pac-12.

If Cuonzo Martinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team has any staying power, the Bears will need to show it this week with a road swing against Utah and Colorado â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two teams they already beat at Haas Pavilion.

9. OKLAHOMAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S OTHER GUYS ARE GOOD, TOO Buddy Hieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bid for National Player of the Year hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t diminished, but Buddyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201D; ahem â&#x20AC;&#x201D; buddies are why OU is a Final Four contender.

10. BUTLER IS FADING On Dec. 28, Butler was 11â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1, but since then the Bulldogs have fallen on tough times in conference play. After back-to-back losses to Providence and Creighton on the road, Butler is 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5 in the Big East. The Bulldogs are the victim of some unfortunate scheduling. Seven of WKHLU Âż UVW OHDJXH JDPHV KDYH EHHQ RQ WKH URDG 7KH\ÂśYH SOD\HG Providence twice, plus Villanova and Xavier. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four of seven games against the top three teams in the league. Butler must take advantage of the upcoming stretch against DePaul, Marquette, Georgetown, St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Seton Hall to stay above water in the Big East.

Ben Bentil, Providence The Friarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Kris Dunn is a National Player of the Year candidate, but he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the Player of the Week for Providence. That honor goes to forward Ben Bentil, an All-America candidate in his own right. Bentil had 31 points and an astonishing seven offensive rebounds (to go with six defensive boards) in an 82â&#x20AC;&#x201C;76 overtime win at Big East leader Villanova. Bentil had 20 points and seven rebounds in Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over Butler.

PLAYER OF THE YEAR WATCH 1. Buddy Hield, Oklahoma Hield has one of the best efficiency stat lines in recent memory: 52.4 percent shooting from 2, 51.7 percent from 3 and 90.5 percent from the free throw line.

2. Kris Dunn, Providence Dunn eventually may have to ďŹ ght off teammate Ben Bentil for postseason hardware, but the Friars guard is still averaging 17.0 points, 7.1 assists and 6.2 rebounds.

3. Ben Simmons, LSU Simmons is averaging 21.8 points per game in LSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wins and 16.0 points in the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; losses.

The splits were clear this week, with 23 points and eight rebounds in a win over Alabama and a 3-of-9 performance from the ďŹ eld with four turnovers in a loss to Texas A&M. 4. Jarrod Uthoff, Iowa The Hawkeyes are 7â&#x20AC;&#x201C;0 in the Big Ten thanks to 20.0 points and 6.0 rebounds per game in league play from the senior forward Uthoff.

5. Brice Johnson, North Carolina The biggest reason UNC is 7â&#x20AC;&#x201C;0 in the ACC, Johnson averaged 23.0 points and 14.0 rebounds in two games last week.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;It just hurtsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;: Frustrated Wake Forest hopes for turnaround The Associated Press

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Wake Forest keeps finding ways to lose, leaving the Demon Deaconsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strong start this season as nothing more than a distant memory.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been blown out.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve blown big leads and had their own rallies from big deficits fall short.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been competitive against good teams but just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish them off. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s added up to seven losses in eight Atlantic Coast Conference games this month â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and none

stings worse than the most recent, a last-second 7271 loss to No. 11 Virginia on Tuesday night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given my heart and soul to this school and to this program,â&#x20AC;? senior big man Devin Thomas said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just hurts, man.â&#x20AC;?

After starting 9-3, Wake Forest (10-10, 1-7) has dropped into 14th place in the conference, a halfgame ahead of a Boston College team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winless in the league. This certainly wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t where the Demon Deacons thought theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be when they knocked off No. 13 Indi-

ana and UCLA in the Maui Invitational, or when they beat hyped freshman Ben Simmons and LSU on the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home floor.

Still, senior guard Codi Miller-McIntyre believes they can turn things around in the face of pessimism. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just honestly coming in with as much energy as we can â&#x20AC;&#x201D; positive energy, anyway, because obviously thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be enough negative energy around from media, school, even family,â&#x20AC;? Miller-McIntyre said.

That may not be easy because this last loss was

tough to take. The Demon Deacons led Virginia by 14 points with 7 minutes remaining. They led by 10 points with less than 90 seconds to play. They led by seven points with 15 seconds on the clock.

And they lost.

Darius Thompson hit an off-balance heave at the buzzer, sending it over the 6-foot-9 Thomasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; outstretched arm that banked off the glass and through the rim. Coach Danny Manning said afterward, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sleep tonight. I hope it burns. I hope they stay up all night

tossing and turning.â&#x20AC;?

It was a gut-punch that punctuated a slump that has seen all kinds of defeats, from a 28-point home loss to Syracuse to a 2-point loss at improved Virginia Tech. Four of the losses during this slide have come by at least 14 points. Part of the problem is the schedule â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Wake Forest is in the midst of playing four straight ranked opponents, the first time thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happened since 1973.

When the Demon Deacons play at No. 25 Notre Dame on Saturday, that

will mark the sixth Top 25 opponent this month.

Things should ease up a bit in February and March, with the Fighting Irish and 24th-for-now Duke as the only teams currently ranked on the schedule.

If they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t turn it around quickly, Thomas â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the fourth-leading rebounder in school history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and Miller-McIntyre â&#x20AC;&#x201D; also a four-year starter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; could end their careers never having played in a single NCAA Tournament or NIT game. Wake Forest has not made the postseason since 2010.

Newton speaks out on criticism The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers quarterback Cam Newton suggested for the first time Wednesday that race may play a factor in why he’s become a lightning rod for public criticism.

“I’m an African-American quarterback that scares people because they haven’t seen nothing that they can compare me to,” said the 6-foot-5, 245-pound Newton.

The No. 1 pick in the 2011 NFL draft out of Auburn, Newton has his share of detractors who either don’t like how he plays, his celebrations or his abundance of self-confidence.

Newton, a leading league MVP candidate putting up record-breaking numbers, said he learned a long time ago that he can’t please everyone.

“People are going to judge, and have opinions on things I don’t have control over,” Newton said. The stout and speedy Newton is beating teams with his arm and his legs, throwing for 35 touchdowns and running for 10 this season. He has helped lead the Panthers (17-1) to their first Super Bowl since 2003.

Carolina plays the AFC champion Denver Broncos on Feb. 7 in Santa Clara, California.

Newton acknowledged being leery of talking about how

others may perceive him.

“I think it’s a trick question,” Newton said. “If I answer it truthfully it’s going to be ‘Aw, he’s this or that.’ But I will say it anyway.

“I don’t think people have seen what I am or what I’m trying to do.”

Newton said he hasn’t changed, and has previously responded to his critics.

“I said that prior to me being in this situation,” Newton said of being misunderstood.

“But when I said it then it was like, ‘Oh he is immature,’ or, ‘Oh he’s young and this that and the third.’ I felt a certain type of way then and I feel a certain type of way now

— nothing has pretty much changed. They talk about maturity. They talk about skillset. ... The only thing that has changed (about me) is that we’re winning now.”

Panthers coach Ron Rivera doesn’t believe Newton should have to fight perceptions about race. “I think he has always strived to have that separation,” Rivera said.

“I don’t think he wants to be known as an African-American quarterback; he wants to be known as a quarterback. I think that is what drives him, to be able to transcend those boundaries, which I think is Please see NEWTON | 13

Cespedes helps improve Mets’ perception The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Jeff Wilpon says he thinks Yoenis Cespedes’ decision to stay with the New York Mets signals a change in how the oftenstruggling team is viewed.

“We’re a destination now where players want to be,” New York’s chief operating officer said Wednesday, a day after Cespedes and the Mets finalized a $75 million, threeyear contract.

Rather than sign a longer-

term agreement elsewhere, Cespedes agreed to a contract that allows the slugging outfielder to opt out after one year and $27.5 million, when he could join what figures to be a free-agent market without as much top talent.

“He doesn’t view this as a short-term relationship or a short-term contract,” said agent Brodie Van Wagenen, who headed Cespedes’ negotiations on behalf of CAA Baseball and Roc Nation

Sports. “While the opt out is there and it gives both sides some flexibility, Yoenis sees this opportunity as, one, to win the World Series in 2016, and he hopes that it’s going to be a bridge to an even longerterm partnership for the two sides moving forward.”

Acquired from Detroit just before the July 31 trade deadline, Cespedes had 17 home runs and 44 RBIs in 57 games with the Mets, helping them reach the World Series for the

first time since 2000.

He gets a $10 million signing bonus, payable within 30 days of the deal’s approval by Major League Baseball, and salaries of $17.5 million this year and $23.75 million in each of the final two seasons.

Cespedes gets a full-no trade provision and can opt out after the 2016 season and become a free agent. The Mets would have the right to make Please see METS | 13

Packers’ coach LeBron says ‘coach killer’ talk is just unfair out of Pro Bowl The Associated Press

McCarthy can’t coach in Pro Bowl, cites illness The Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Packers coach Mike McCarthy pulled out of his Pro Bowl coaching assignment Wednesday, saying doctors have advised him not to travel as he battles a stomach illness.

The Packers said associate head coach Winston Moss will handle headcoaching responsibilities at the Pro Bowl in Honolulu this week, including Sunday’s game.

The Packers staff will coach one team and the staff of the Kansas City Chiefs will be on the other sideline.

Rosters were to be assigned after a Pro Bowl draft set for Wednesday night, with Hall of Famers Jerry Rice and Michael Irvin serving as the nonplaying captains.

Players were selected without regard to conference in voting by fans, coaches and players, a format first used in the 2014 game.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio — LeBron James disdains the notion he’s a coach killer.

Widely criticized in basketball circles for a perception that he pushed for Cleveland’s front office to fire David Blatt last week, James said the criticism that he undercuts coaches is unfair.

“But what can I do about

it?” he said following shootaround on Wednesday as the Cavs prepared to play the Phoenix Suns.

“I’ve never, in my time since I picked up a basketball, ever undermined a coach, ever disrespected a coach,” he said. “You ask any of my little league coaches, my high school coaches, coaches I’ve played for in tournaments,

camps, my NBA coaches, I’ve always respected what they wanted to do.”

Blatt was fired Friday midway through his second season despite having them atop the Eastern Conference standings and leading the team to the NBA Finals last season.

Blatt’s dismissal — he’s the third coach fired on a team

James has played on — led to some condemnation of the four-time league MVP. On Tuesday, a limited partner with the Heat said during an interview on Israeli radio that James tried to get Erik Spoelstra fired in Miami. Ranaan Katz later retracted his statement to the South Florida Please see LEBRON | 13

FCS players trying to make NFL impression The Associated Press

MOBILE, Ala. — Those NFL executives who couldn’t make the trek to North Dakota to check out Carson Wentz in college are now getting a close-up view of the player in the mix to be the first quarterback drafted.

The former North Dakota State star is the most prominent of a number of FCS products trying to make an impression on NFL teams

throughout this week at the Senior Bowl.

They’ll be lining up against guys who played at programs like Alabama and Ohio State all week, with pro coaches, scouts and executives watching closely.

“I think a lot of the smallschool guys come in here with a little chip on their shoulder, something to prove,” Wentz said. It’s “just exciting to finally get out there and face

these guys.”

The 6-foot-5, 233-pound Wentz might be the top prospect at the Senior Bowl after returning from a broken wrist to lead North Dakota State to its fifth straight national title.

From William & Mary defensive back DeAndre Houston-Carson to Southeast Missouri wide receiver Paul McRoberts and Harvard offensive tackle Cole Toner, they’re finally on a level play-

ing field with those FBS guys.

Wentz is vying with California’s Jared Goff and Memphis’s Paxton Lynch to be the first quarterback selected. He returned from a broken right wrist, sustained on Oct. 17, to lead North Dakota State to a win over Jacksonville State in the championship game.

great.” Rivera, who is Hispanic, said he has battled that notion to some degree himself.

“It really should be about your merits more than anything else,” the coach said.

“More about what you have accomplished, what you have done.” Rivera said some people may simply not like Newton because of his personality.

Newton’s teammates have their own theories about the anti-Newton uproar.

Panthers cornerback Charles Tillman said it may be because Newton wins in an “unconventional way,” unlike

a traditional NFL quarterback, and fans aren’t used to that on Sundays.

“Some people can’t accept that,” Tillman said.

“He is setting a precedent as far as for how quarterbacks are now — and how they may become. He’s in a league of his own. He has created his own category for winning.” Tillman likens Newton, in some respects, to Tim Tebow.

“People would say, ‘Oh Tebow is not a good quarterback,’ but the guy won games and took his team to the playoffs,” Tillman said.

“All Tim Tebow did was say that he loved Jesus and he prayed all of the time — and people hated him for that.”

a qualifying offer, which would entitle them to a high draft pick as compensation if he were to then sign with another team.

“Clearly the player had a desire to be here and he had motivation to structure a deal that not only kept him here but also accomplished his goals of having him properly valued and properly placed within not only this market but also within his outfield peers across the game,” Van Wagenen said.

Before last week, Mets

officials had said it was unlikely Cespedes would be re-signed. New York refused to offer a longerterm deal to a player who had just turned 30.

“I think when I began to feel as if we had a chance for this to work is when I asked Brodie the question: ‘Does Yoenis want to come back to New York?’ and the answer from Brodie was yes,” general manager Sandy Alderson said.

“Secondly, Brodie asked me a question, which was, ‘Are you in it to win it?’ As I recall, that was the exact phraseology.

And I said, ‘Yes.’”

UConn athletic director offered Michigan job The Associated Press

STORRS, Conn. — Two high ranking UConn officials say the school’s athletic director has been offered the same job at Michigan.

The officials spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday because Michigan has made no official announcements about the opening.

UConn President Susan Herbst confirmed that Warde Manuel is a finalist for the job at Michigan, his alma mater, and she expects an announcement from that school in the next couple days.

“He loves his alma mater, as most of us do, so it’s really a great honor and it is one of the best jobs in college athletics, without

question,” she said following a school board of trustees meeting, which Manuel also attended.

Manuel declined to comment about the potential job, but did talk about his four years in Storrs, which includes six national championships, including dual titles for the men’s and women’s basketball teams in 2014.

“I’m very proud of all that (the student athletes) have accomplished,” he said.

“I think that UConn is going to be successful for many, many decades.”

Michigan athletic director Jim Hackett said in a text message Wednesday morning: “Search is confidential until announcement.”

Hackett has served as

Michigan’s athletic director since Oct. 31, 2014, when he came out of retirement to replace Dave Brandon after Brandon resigned.

Hackett is on the school’s advisory committee for its AD search but pulled his own name out of the running.

Manuel, 47, played football at Michigan under the legendary Bo Schembechler before serving for several years as an athletic administrator there.

He came to UConn from the University at Buffalo, which he helped establish as a Division I program.

He took over UConn’s athletic department in February 2012, while the school was dealing with academic sanctions that kept the Huskies out of the

2013 NCAA men’s basketball Tournament.

He navigated UConn through the retirement of Hall of Fame basketball coach Jim Calhoun, agreeing to hire Kevin Ollie, Calhoun’s hand-picked successor. But he gave Ollie just a seven-month contract, signing him to a five-year deal only after Ollie had proved he could lead the Huskies to academic and athletic success.

The team has since posted back-to-back perfect academic progress reports to the NCAA. “That’s one of his legacies,” Herbst said. “We are not in APR trouble.

He brought high academic standards to the athletic department in a way that is permanent and lasting.”

out there.

The other guys from FCS schools face similar challenges, even if they’re not being scrutinized quite so closely as a potential first-round quarterback. Some were undersized or late bloomers who were barely recruited by major colleges or not at all.

Wentz grew from a 5-8,

125-pound beanpole as a high school freshman in Bismarck, North Dakota and didn’t play quarterback as a junior because of an injury. “In North Dakota, it’s hard to get found in general, let alone missing a junior year,” Wentz said. “I came in my senior year at 6-5 and 200 pounds and kind of came out of nowhere.”

wildly successful in Europe and hired by Cleveland before James decided to return to the Cavaliers as a free agent in 2014.

Although James insists that he didn’t do anything to weaken Blatt’s authority, there were several incidents over the past 18 months that illustrate how he didn’t do his for-

mer coach any favors.

James usually referred to Blatt simply as “Blatt” and often ignored Blatt during games, preferring to discuss strategy with Lue during timeouts.

James also famously changed a play designed

by Blatt during the playoffs last season before hitting a game-winning jumper to beat Chicago.

“Yes, he was scouted in the fall but Fargo, North Dakota is a tough place to get to,” said Senior Bowl executive director Phil Savage, a former Cleveland general manager. “There were probably a handful of (general managers) that made it
