Man killed in motorcycle crash Mishap blocks traffic on 72 BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
A 63-year-old Corinth man was killed when his motorcycle struck another vehicle on Monday. Martin Dwain Whitehurst, 924 Taylor St., was transported to Magnolia Regional Health Center where he was pronounced dead following the 2:30 p.m. accident on U.S. Highway 72. Whitehurst was riding westbound on Highway 72 on a 2003 Honda when Courtney Suzanne Wilbanks, 38, of Walnut, pulled out in front of the motorcycle while exiting New Hope Road to head east on Highway 72. “He made contact with the front of her vehicle and was ejected off the motorcycle,” said Corinth Police Department Captain Chuck Hinds. Whitehurst hit the center of the 2002 Honda Minivan according to Hinds. Traffic was blocked in the both eastbound lanes for over Staff photo by Steve Beavers

Sheriff wants civil service system Watershed BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn County sheriff is seeking county support for placing his department under the civil service system. In a preliminary discussion with the Board of Supervisors Monday morning, Sheriff Charles Rinehart presented a draft of proposed local and private legislation that would authorize the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors to create a civil service commission for the sheriff’s department. He asked supervisors to read it and bring questions to the next board meeting. Although it is not required, the sheriff said he will not pursue the change without the
board’s support. If approved by the legislature, it would authorize the board to form a threemember commission and set forth procedures for removal, suspension, demotion and discharge of employees. It would apply to all full-time employees except the sheriff and chief deputy. Rinehart said it would protect employees during leadership changes. “I think a man ought to be able to go to work for the Alcorn County sheriff’s office, keep your nose clean, do your job and retire,” said Rinehart. Several counties in south Mississippi have implemented the civil service system for their sheriff’s departments.
“Alabama has had it for years,” the sheriff said. “Tennessee is going to it. Hardin and McNairy have already gone to it.” In other items relating to law enforcement, the board received a proposed interlocal agreement with the city of Farmington for housing inmates at a cost of $25 per inmate per day at the Alcorn County Justice Center. State inmates housed in the regional jail portion of the facility during January numbered from 294 to 300, yielding a payment to the county of $273,013.20. The state paid another $25,000 for additional state inmates housed on the county side of the facility during the month.

Corinth brothers are motocross Kings of the Hill BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Benjamin and Alex Rose have done it again. Both boys recently won series championships in the King of the Hill Motocross Series and picked up their 7-foot-tall trophies, championship number plates and bibs at an awards ceremony
in Jackson, Tenn. The Corinth brothers are no strangers to the sport. They have been racing motocross for four years, have won multiple championships and raced in national championships. For the recent racing accomplishment, their family traveled to 16 races in six states.
Their previous motocross wins include the 2011 Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee Series; 2011 South Central Regional Championship; Heart of Dixie Championship; and StadiumX Championship. Benjamin, a fifth-grader at Corinth Middle School, won the championship for 65cc

projects cleared to move ahead BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Funding for six Emergency Watershed Protection projects in Alcorn County has been released by the federal government, clearing the way for the projects to move forward. “Congress has finally appropriated money to repair damage from the storms in May 2010,” said Tom Heard, area conservationist with the Natural Resources Conservation Service. Half the Alcorn County projects are in district 2, with one each in districts 1, 4 and 5. NRCS covers 85 percent of the cost, and supervisors adopted a resolution asking the Tennessee River Valley Water Management District to assist with the 15 percent local match. Of the total cost of $148,420, the county must provide $22,263. The projects are: ■ County Road 192 on Seven Mile Creek Watershed — Erosion threatens culvert, roadway and utilities. ■ County Road 265 on Coke Creek — Erosion threatens culvert and roadway. ■ County Road 265 on Coke Creek — A second project on Coke Creek with erosion threatening a culvert and the roadway. ■ County Road 352 on Little Yellow Creek — Erosion threatening culvert, roadway and utilities ■ County Road 609 on Hatchie River Watershed — Bank stabilization and debris removal at culvert and along roadway. ■ County Road 617 on McElroy Creek — Erosion threatening culvert, roadway and utilities. The county districts can do the work themselves or bid it out. The projects generally include debris cleanup and placement of riprap. Replacement of the culverts, if needed, is a cost the county would have to cover, said Sandy Mitchell, district clerk with NRCS. Mississippi is receiving a total of $3.05 million for the emergency watershed program, which can be used for stream debris removal, eroded bank restoration, levee and drainage facility repairs.

‘Grey’ is gloomy, cruel, creative
Dennis Earl McDuffy
“The Grey,” R, ***1/2, Liam Neeson, Dermot Mulroney, Frank Grillo, Dallas Roberts, Joe Anderson; Open Road films; Director Joe Carnahan; length — 117 minutes n the movie, “The Grey,” Ottway (Liam Neeson) is a professional sharpshooter for oil companies in Alaska. His job is to kill wolves in order to prevent them from harming oil workers. Now these oil workers are very tough hombres but they have to work and keep their minds on their jobs. At night they can hear the constant and eerie howls of the wolves. Ottway, a very tough Terry guy himBurns self, is a crack shot Movie Critic with his rifle. He has some issues, though. He is always looking at a picture of his wife and writing a letter to her. The oil workers complete their job and board a plane to fly home. The plane encounters trouble and begins to lose altitude and then begins to tear apart. The scene is terrifying and the audience feels as if it is taking part in the crash. This traumatic event kills almost everyone on board, however Ottway and a few others survive. Not knowing where they are or if they will be rescued, the remaining group decides to start walking after a short rest. Along their trek, wolves begin attacking them.

Terry Burns’ movie ratings ■ The
Iron Lady, PG-13, *** ■ The Descendants, R, ***** ■ My Week with Marilyn, R, **** ■ Haywire, R, *** ■ Contraband, R, *** The wolves are protecting their territory. They know the humans do not belong there. If I heard the statement correctly, Ottway tells the men, “Wolves have a 300 mile range and a 30 mile kill zone.” To make things worse, one of the men thinks he is macho man and he challenges the wolf expert Ottway. The group tries to reach some trees and find a way out of their quandary. The cold wind and snow make the audience feel as if it is part of the dreary, cold and dangerous territory. It has been said about the late Howlin’ Wolf,
a blues singer, guitarist, and harmonic player weighing 300 pounds and standing 6 feet, 6 inches that “with his imposing presence, he could rock the house down and scare the wits out of the patrons.” This is a small metaphor for the wolves and what they are capable of doing in this film. Each person in “The Grey” has their own story and demons. Sharing these stories while in this dangerous situation helps them to get a better grip on life. As each one speaks about their experience, the person seems to become more sensitive to life and
what is important. “The Grey” is original in its plot and is a surprise because of its unique circumstances. The language is pervasive and strong along with the blood and gore. The film does not take the easy way out. It is an extremely brawny story about some burly rough and tough characters. I recommend it for creativity, originality and the rugged outdoor experience.

Sentencing rescheduled for homebuilder Associated Press
GULFPORT — The sentencing of a Slidell, La., man has been postponed to give him time to sell an apartment building in Louisiana so he can repay a government loan he obtained through false statements. Victor Planetta Sr., of Slidell-based Planetta Custom Homes, pleaded guilty in federal court in Gulfport November. He was to be sentenced last week. As part of his plea, he agreed to repay the Small
Deaths
Business Administration $1 million before sentencing and to forfeit a 43-foot yacht named “Beyond Belief.” U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. has set Victor Planetta’s new sentencing date for April 5. Court records show Planetta’s attorney asked Guirola to delay sentencing while Planetta tries to find a buyer for The Commodore apartment complex in Slidell. The attorney said Planetta is “currently engaged in serious nego-
tiations with a potential buyer from California.” Planetta remains free on an unsecured bond of $25,000. Prosecutors said Planetta made the false statements in Pass Christian when he filed an SBA loan at a disaster-relief center on Oct. 6, 2005, after Hurricane Katrina. Planetta and his wife, Eileen Planetta, initially were arrested after indictment on related charges. The government accused them of buying a
2006 Silverton Marine motor yacht with loan proceeds. Around the time of Victor Planetta’s plea agreement, his wife was placed in a pre-trial diversion program which will likely result in the charges against her being dismissed. Victor Planetta received national news coverage in 2007 after his company helped TV talk show host Tyra Banks and others build a home for a Bay St. Louis woman who lost her home in Katrina.

DeSoto officials urge quake preparedness BY HENRY BAILEY Associated Press
HERNANDO — Robert Latham remembers the scare in 1989 when climatologist Iben Browning predicted a major earthquake in the New Madrid Seismic Zone centered in southern Missouri. Browning specified Dec. 2 or 3, 1990, as the most likely days in a forecast hyped in the media that raised broad alarm. No temblor occurred on those days or thereafter. Browning’s “science” may have been illusory, but the threat is real, and it includes DeSoto Coun-
ty, said Latham, Mississippi’s Emergency Management director. The former Tate County EMA chief is joining the local first-response community and the DeSoto Board of Supervisors in urging that earthquake preparedness begin at home. Their message also is timed with the Great Central U.S. ShakeOut awareness drill on Tuesday at 10:15 a.m., and the bicentennial of the 1811-12 series of powerful earthquakes along the New Madrid with a magnitude as high as 8.0. More than
a million people across Mississippi and eight other states are expected to participate “Our greatest concern, as with any emergency, is saving lives, which begins with individual and family preparedness,” Latham said. “For earthquakes, personal preparedness starts with citizens learning to ‘drop, cover and hold on,’ as well as having a family plan so you know where everyone is once it’s over.” The New Madrid zone stretches 40 miles wide and 200 miles long, taking in North Mississippi,
Northeast Arkansas, West Tennessee, and parts of Illinois, Missouri, Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. Bobby Storey, DeSoto emergency chief, said response plans include scattering assets, such as rescue equipment and vehicles, across the region so that resources will be available anywhere. “The biggest things at first would be dealing with ruptured gas lines, high-voltage lines down and broken water mains,” he said. “Our manpower for teams would be increased because no utilities would be available.”

Corinth, Miss.
Time for the cupcake cops First they come for the alcohol, then for the tobacco, then for your sugar. When the day arrives when you have to undergo a background check and endure a three-day waiting period to Rich enter a Dunkin’ Donuts, you Lowery can trace the loss of your unrestricted access to a Boston National Kreme or French Cruller to Review this moment. Namely the publication in the journal Nature of an article calling for regulating sugar as a health hazard, although stopping “far short of all-out prohibition” (that would be too extreme). One of the authors is Robert Lustig of the University of California, San Francisco, who hopes to be to the consumption of sugary beverages and foods what William Wilberforce was to the slave trade. He is not given to understatement. In a video discussion with his co-authors, he says that thanks to sugar and its contribution to chronic noncommunicable diseases like heart disease and diabetes, “we are in the midst of the biggest public health crisis in the history of the world.” Bigger than the bubonic plague that killed off about half the population of Europe in the 14th century, in an epic demographic catastrophe? Bigger than the 1918 flu pandemic that killed as many as 50 million people? As soon as Coca-Cola becomes so toxic that it nearly instantaneously wipes out a large proportion of the world’s population and influences the course of civilization, well then, Lustig has a case. There is a vigorous debate among researchers about how harmful sugar is, and Lustig — as you might imagine — takes the dire view. This fuels his push for “gentle ‘supply side’ control strategies” to limit the intake of sugar, including “taxation, distribution controls, age limits.” He and his co-authors imagine tighter “licensing requirements on vending machines and snack bars.” They muse about “zoning ordinances to control the number of fast-food outlets and convenience stores in low-income communities, and especially around schools.” Under this regime, we’ll go from gun-free school zones to Snickers-free school zones. Lustig and Co. want to double the price of a soda by taxation. They seriously propose starting to card young people who try to buy a Dr Pepper, with an age cutoff of 17. This will make 17 a fraught age: Old enough (with parental consent) to join the military and old enough to buy chocolate milk. I’ve always thought soda is bad for you, not from studying the data, but because my mom wouldn’t let us have it in the house when we were kids. Which settled the issue rather nicely. As it turns out, research shows the power of engaged parents. A study published in Pediatrics in 2010 found that if children ate dinner with their families, got about 10 hours of sleep a night and watched two hours or less of TV on weeknights, they had a lower risk of obesity. The mindset of the Robert Lustigs of the world is that we can’t trust parents or individuals to make sound choices. “They don’t consider it public health,” he scolds in the video, referring to opponents of a government anti-sugar campaign, “they consider it personal responsibility.” But if what you choose to eat and drink is no longer considered the province of personal responsibility, what is left? If this all seems good for yuks, just wait 10 years. Before it’s over, the offending food and beverage companies — the “sugar merchants,” as a journalist sympathetic to Lustig’s case puts it — could well be as beaten-down as the tobacco companies. One of Lustig’s coauthors refers to sugar as “the substance.” The article cites “the dependence-producing properties of sugar in humans.” The predicate is there for making Little Debbie, despite her wholesome red curls and cheery slogan (“Unwrap a Smile”), into the moral equivalent of a drug pusher. Chuckle now, but make plans to stockpile cookie dough and Mountain Dew, just in case. Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review. He can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.

In fact, he writes in the prologue to “Rules for Radicals” that “the democratic ideal springs from the ideas of liberty, equality, majority rule through free elections, protection of the rights of minorities and freedom to subscribe to multiple loyalties in matters of religion, economics and politics rather to a total loyalty to the state.” It is clear throughout his work Alinsky’s approach is anti-establishment yet one dedicated to the democratic access to power for those who lack the resources to gain power through traditional means. For Alinsky, organization to take advantage of superior numbers was the answer. His books were, in effect, detailed training manuals on how to accomplish and mobilize this organization. The question remains, however, as to why Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich is so captivated by Saul Alinsky in Gingrich’s efforts to wound Barack Obama. Ironically, it is Gingrich himself who seems to have adopted multiple principles contained in
Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.” Gingrich speaks derisively of enemies embodied by the “Washington elite” and the “New York elite,” and he decries the big-moneyed interests as he vows to win with “people power.” Gingrich speaks often of his challenge to the “old order” in an unmistakable reference to the status quo. Look no further than his labeling of Mitt Romney as the “Massachusetts Moderate” or Obama as the “Food Stamp President.” Whether Gingrich is the Republican nominee or not, he has raised the curtain on what may well be the central issue in the general election debate. This election is shaping up as a contest over the fundamental role of government in the lives of people. It will be a contest between the poster child of the “Haves,” in the case of the Republican nominee and billionaire Donald Trumpbacked Mitt Romney, and Democratic incumbent Barack Obama, the former community organizer trained in the principles of blue collar urban populism. There could hardly be a greater contrast and the current economic situation provides the perfect backdrop for the debate. Dr. W.

past 60 years we’ve invaded, bombed or sought to subvert more countries — Korea, Vietnam, Lebanon, Cuba, Somalia, Ethiopia, Panama, Iraq (twice), Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Chile, Laos, Cambodia, the Balkans, Grenada, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Indonesia, Guyana, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Brazil, Greece, and Libya, as well as Guatemala, Nicaragua, Angola, and El Salvador by proxy — than our bean counters can count. Some of these operations transpired under a NATO or United Nations umbrella, but most didn’t. One of the chief targets of the budget cutters is the new F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, a stealth model that theoretically eludes radar detection and is presently budgeted at $400 billion for 2,500 planes, or $160 million-a-pop. And if past history is any indication, it won’t work. Which won’t matter, because very little of this is about “defense.” It’s about the money and political profit to be gained from the building of ever more expensive weapons systems of dubious utility.

the development of a similar weapons system, the B-1 bomber. Built in the 1980s, it cost $28 billion (not chump change in those days) and hardly ever saw combat. It was designed for nuclear war, you see, and we haven’t had one of those yet (unless you count Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which no one does). A few can still fly, but they’re hideously expensive to operate, so they don’t. Toward the end of his book Kotz takes us through a B-1 assembly line in Palmdale, California. First we learn about the forward fuselage, which was made in Ohio, then the middle and rear elements (Texas), the tail section (Maryland), and the nose landing gear (California) with tires from Ohio. And so it went. Before the plane was fully assembled, more than 70 manufacturing sites were accounted for, each represented by a pious member of Congress with a handout. That’s what military spending is all about and why it’s so difficult to cut. It’s called the military-industrial complex. OtherWords columnist Donald Kaul lives in Ann Arbor, Mich. otherwords.org

Local Judge temporarily blocks Turner execution BY HOLBROOK MOHR Associated Press
JACKSON — A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked the execution of a Mississippi inmate who killed two men during a robbery spree in 1995. The man’s attorneys asked for the order, not arguing guilt or innocence, but that Edwin Hart Turner is mentally ill and should not be executed. U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves ordered the Mississippi Department of Corrections to allow Turner to be seen by a psychiatrist of his choosing. James Craig with the Louisiana Capital Assis-
tance Center argues that a Mississippi Department of Corrections policy prohibited Turner from getting tests that could prove he’s mentally ill. Craig said the policy, which dates to the 1990s, violates prisoners’ rights to have access to courts and other materials that can help them develop evidence. The policy requires court orders for medical experts or others to visit and test inmates. Craig said the right tests would show Turner is mentally ill. Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood has said Turner’s lawyers
are bringing up old arguments that have been rejected by the courts before. “We argue that his mental health claims have been fully addressed, and that this present action is nothing more than an attempt to re-litigate a claim that has been properly adjudicated at every turn,” Hood said in a statement. Mississippi is one of 10 states that permit someone who suffered from serious mental illness at the time of the offense to be executed, according to a petition filed with the U.S. Supreme Court. Turner’s

lawyers want the Court to prohibit the execution of mentally ill people the way it did inmates considered mentally retarded. There’s little dispute that Turner killed the men then went home and had a meal of shrimp and cinnamon rolls before going to sleep. He’s scheduled to die by injection Wednesday. His attorneys have filed two separate petitions that seek to stop the execution, one with the U.S. Supreme Court and the other one in federal court in Jackson. Turner’s lawyers argue that Turner inherited a
JACKSON — The state Department of Education is requesting $2.5 million to start a superintendent’s academy. The Clarion-Ledger reports that state Superintendent Tom Burnham told House Education Committee members this past week that the academy is “desperately needed” for new administrators to receive training. Sixty of Mississippi’s 152 school districts have new superintendents. The number doesn’t include the seven districts with state-appointed conservators. Burnham said some of the superintendents have “been asked to do things
they don’t know how to do.” Dan Domenech, executive director of the American Association of School Superintendents, said with the pressure for greater accountability and improved student performance, experienced leadership may be a key. Domenech said research has shown it takes at least three years for superintendents to establish themselves in a community. Broad reforms are happening in education, including the adoption of stronger academic standards and a ratcheting up of accountability. “I hope and pray that
we all take our time and not make any hasty decisions on laws that are farreaching and impactful,” Sam Bounds, executive director of the Mississippi Association of School Superintendents, said of educators and lawmakers. “We need to keep the main thing the main thing. And the main thing is education of our students,” he said. “And leadership matters.” With almost 40 elected superintendents, about half did not seek re-election. The other half were defeated in elections, Bounds said. Of 20 appointed positions, 12 superintendents retired, Bounds said.
with his friend, Paul Murrell Stewart, in a spree that netted about $400. Stewart, who was 17 at the time, testified against Turner and was sentenced to life in prison. Craig said Turner was diagnosed with depression that year and given the antidepressant medication Prozac. Craig believes Turner was misdiagnosed and that Prozac compounded his problems. “If the folks at Whitfield knew then what we know now, I feel confident they wouldn’t have released him with 40 milligrams of Prozac,” Craig said.

serious mental illness. His father is thought to have committed suicide by shooting a gun into a shed filled with dynamite and his grandmother and great-grandmother both spent time in the state mental hospital. Craig said in a telephone interview Monday that Turner had spent three months in the Mississippi State Hospital at Whitfield after slitting his wrists in 1995. He had been out about six weeks before the killings occurred. Turner, 38, was convicted of killing the two men while robbing gas stations
JACKSON — A Hinds County judge will decide what sanctions will be levied against Circuit Clerk Barbara Dunn over a delay in getting records to the Mississippi Supreme Court. The Clarion-Ledger reports that the Supreme Court found the delay harmed a litigant in an appeal. The case involves a dispute between a Jackson law firm and a paralegal company. Dunn has been sanctioned three times. The latest this past week and previously in 2008 and 2010. The Supreme Court said the paralegal company incurred unneces-
sary expense for its time and effort in attempting to persuade the clerk to get the documents transferred for the appeal. The court said the clerk’s actions also delayed the appeal. Circuit Judge Tomie Green to decide the amount of the sanction. Dunn has been sanctioned three times. The latest came this past week and previously in 2008 and 2010.In 2008, the court sanctioned Dunn $1,000 for her office’s failure to mail copies of orders to all parties involved, but the court reduced the fine to $100, based upon Dunn’s assurance she had put in place procedures to ensure compliance with rules. In 2010, the court sanc-
tioned Dunn $5,000 for her office’s failure to send notice of an order to all parties in a lawsuit. This time, the Supreme Court is mandating that Dunn provide adequate training for her staff. Dunn said each of her roughly dozen employees has a specific duty.

Chicago college offers class on Occupy movement Associated Press
CHICAGO — A Chicago college is offering a class on the Occupy movement. Thirty-two undergraduate students are enrolled at Roosevelt University’s “Occupy Everywhere” class. It’s a three-credit political science course that looks at the movement that started
last summer near New York City’s Wall Street and spread nationwide. The Chicago Sun-Times reports students’ assignments include reading the movement’s newspaper and attending Occupy Chicago’s general assembly meetings held near Roosevelt’s downtown campus.
Leaders from the Chicago movement may present guest lectures. Professor Jeff Edwards studies social movements. He says the Occupy movement has been unfolding before students and the class is a good opportunity for them.
Gingrich says he’s staying in GOP race BY SHANNON MCCAFFREY Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Defeated in the Nevada caucuses, Newt Gingrich brushed aside all talk of quitting the Republican presidential race and said he hopes a series of victories will enable him to catch up with frontrunner Mitt Romney by the Texas primary in early April. At a news conference in Las Vegas after results showed him and Ron Paul jockeying for second place, the former House speaker attacked Romney and President Barack Obama by turns. He said he and aides have spent much of the past four days retooling a campaign that twice has made him a leader in the polls, yet left him with only one victory in five states. He described Romney as a Massachusetts moderate, and cast himself as a conservative, and said the differences between the two will become “wider and wider and clearer and clearer” over the next few weeks. He needs to forge a breakthrough as the race turns to a string of states friendly to Romney, including Colorado and Minnesota today and Michigan, where Romney grew up, on Feb. 28. Nevada was the second straight loss for Gingrich after his triumphant South Carolina upset. And it was beset by glitches. Gingrich bungled a meeting with Nevada’s governor then suffered through the indignity of having advisers tell reporters that the former House speaker would score the endorsement of Donald Trump, only to watch the unpredictable real estate tycoon
“And yeah, sometimes the left hand doesn’t know what the right is doing. But that’s how it goes sometimes.” George Harris Co-chairman, Gingrich finance team back Mitt Romney. Gingrich’s campaign has always been a bit of a freewheeling affair, especially lined up against the regimented Romney effort. Gingrich is perpetually late, he frequently strays off message and his schedule sometimes seems improvised. His public appearances in Nevada have been surprisingly few, and he didn’t even venture out to caucus sites on Saturday as voters cast ballots. But in Nevada, organizational problems were laid bare in a fashion that raises questions about whether he’s can compete in upcoming contests. Gingrich aides say they have been using Nevada — where Romney was heavily favored and Ron Paul has sizable support — to reset the campaign after being clobbered in Florida. One reason Gingrich held just five public events since arriving in Nevada is that he’s been at closed-door fundraisers and meeting with donors at the Venetian Hotel, lining up the cash he’ll need. The Gingrich strategy hinges on Super Tuesday on March 6, when the campaign will sweep South again through states that look good for him. Gingrich — who is own chief strategist — and aides have been hunkered down mapping out strategy. Ohio will figure prominently in the mix. He’ll head to the Super
Tuesday state on Tuesday, bypassing other states that have contests sooner. Nevada provides a pretty good example of what not to do. “We’re a bunch of volunteers that are drinking water through a fire hose,” said George Harris, a national co-chairman of Gingrich’s finance team who hosted a fundraiser for him at his Las Vegas restaurant, Mundo. “And yeah, sometimes the left hand doesn’t know what the right is doing. But that’s how it goes sometimes,” Harris said. In fairness, just three days separated the Florida primary and the Nevada caucuses. Romney carried 51 percent of the vote in the state when he first sought the Republican nomination in 2008, and his Nevada operation remains strong. But Gingrich fumbled some key opportunities. A meeting in Carson City Wednesday with Gov. Brian Sandoval was scrapped following scheduling confusion between Gingrich’s national and state staff. Sandoval had backed Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who endorsed Gingrich after exiting the race last month. Gingrich backers in the state had been hoping that even if Sandoval failed to offer up an endorsement, that a photo of the two men together would hold sway among conservative caucusgoers.

Mouse house earnings Walt Disney has a tough act to follow when it reports its fiscal firstquarter results today. The media giant reported record profit and revenue in its fourth quarter on higher spending at theme parks and growth at pay TV operations ESPN and Disney Channel. The question now is whether soft TV ratings and slower travel trends in December hurt the company's latest results. Disney has a higher price-to-earnings ratio than Viacom and Time Warner. Investors want to know if it’s justified.

Think outside the BRICs Emerging markets are recovering from a dismal 2011. The MSCI emerging markets index is up 14 percent this year. The S&P 500 is up nearly 7 percent. If you want to invest in emerging markets, go beyond the obvious Brazil, Russia, India and China, or BRICs. Try South Africa. South African companies are expected to have the strongest earnings growth of all the emerging markets this year – 27 percent. That’s nearly triple the 10 percent average growth expected from emerging markets. The strongest growth is expected to come from producers of gold, platinum and other metals.

analyst Sean Holmes predicts their profits will rise 23 percent this year. Low interest rates are driving consumer spending – even though South Africa had a 25 percent unemployment rate in the third quarter of 2011. That’s the most recent number available. Just a handful of mutual funds have more than 10 percent of their holdings in South Africa. An ETF, though, invests exclusively in South African companies: iShares MSCI South Africa Index fund (EZA). It rose 33 percent last year.

Toyota has struggled to put new cars at dealerships since the tsunami disaster in northeastern Japan last spring and the massive flooding in Thailand last summer caused parts shortages. That led to a drop in production. The automaker has added extra shifts for workers in hopes of making up for lost sales. Toyota's figures for the October-December quarter out today should show whether the strategy is working.

INDIANAPOLIS — Tom Coughlin is looking forward to the parade and a couple weeks off to reflect on the Giants’ second championship in five seasons. Then he will begin preparations for defending the title. The 65-year-old coach sees no reason to retire now. “I mean, it’s what I do,” Coughlin said Monday morning, hours after New York beat the New England Patriots 21-17 in the Super Bowl. “So the alternative I’ve never really given it a whole lot of consideration. (Just coach) as long as I can.” Coughlin could be around for a while following his second title as a head coach. He signed a contract extension in July that runs through next season, but it looks as the Giants could revisit that
deal following the franchise’s fourth Super Bowl win. It’s obvious he still wants to coach. “I don’t fish, I don’t golf,” he said. “My wife keeps telling me, ‘You better have something to do, buddy boy. If you think you’re going to hang around here, you’re crazy.”’ Giants chief executive John Mara said it’s safe to say the team wants Coughlin to return. “He might be 65, but he’s got the energy of somebody quite younger than that,” he said. The Giants packed up early Monday morning and boarded busses around 11 a.m. for a trip to the airport and the flight back to New Jersey. Several players saluted the crowd as they departed the aircraft at Newark Liberty
International Airport, and some used video recorders to capture the scene. Coughlin also had a big smile as he waved to the crowd. The big parade up the Canyon of Heroes in lower Manhattan is scheduled for Tuesday. “If you’re any kind of historian, and you do have any recollection of this parade, the ‘Parade of Champions’ if you will, the ‘Canyon of Heroes’ - I remember John Mara looking at me and saying, ‘You don’t want to miss this now,” Coughlin said of a conversion with Mara in 2008 after their first title win over the Patriots. “It’s the same thing I would convey to all of our players, you don’t want to miss this,” Coughlin added. “Heartwarming doesn’t quite cover this, what you go through
and what your feelings are. When you are looking down the side streets, and there’s people forever down those side streets, and they’re all there because they are taking ownership of their team.” Before he skipped town with the rest of the team, quarterback Eli Manning got the keys to the car he won for his second Super Bowl MVP award. Manning, who led a gamewinning 88-yard drive that culminated in Ahmad Bradshaw’s uncontested touchdown run with 57 seconds to play, spent the evening with family and friends. Like most Giants, he had little sleep. Coughlin quipped he had 15 minutes of rest. Manning said his brother, Peyton, congratulated him Please see GIANTS | 9

Florida welcomes pressure-free test at UK Associated Press
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — The way No. 8 Florida sees it, all the pressure is on top-ranked Kentucky. The Wildcats have a 15game winning streak, have won a nation-best 48 in a row at home and hold the top spot in the Southeastern Conference. They have five players averaging double figures, including freshman phenom Anthony Davis, and have allowed only three opponents to top 65 points all season. They have one of the most complete rosters in the country. If the Gators win Tuesday night in Lexington, Ky., it’s an upset. If they lose, it’s expected. “There’s no pressure on us,

instant chemistry alongside sophomores Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb. Throw in senior Darius Miller, who’s given the Gators fits in recent years, and it’s easy to see why the Wildcats are the top team in the country. “They’re playing very, very well,” Florida coach Billy Donovan said. “I think one of the things for them is their team continues to get better. Whether they’re ranked No. 1 or No. 5, clearly they’re one of the best teams in the country, there’s no doubt about that. ... So, there’s really nothing with their team when you look at it that appears like a real glaring weakness.” Kentucky’s biggest strength is its frontcourt. The 6-foot-10 Davis leads the team in scoring and re-
bounding, and tops the nation in blocked shots. His 116 blocks is one more than the conference’s previous freshman record set by LSU’s Shaquille O’Neal’s in 1990. “He’s great at it,” Donovan said. “He does it on the ball. He does it off the ball. I think you’ve got to be smart when you’re attacking the basket. Certainly he is very, very long. He alters the game. He adds a different dimension at the basket for their team, so it can’t be a situation where we’re not going to go to the basket or not post up because he’s there. I just think you’ve got to make good, wise choices because when he does block shots it’s certainly ignites them on the fast break Please see FLORIDA | 9
Court strips Contador of 2010 Tour title Associated Press

going into Rupp, just playing our game,” Florida guard Kenny Boynton said. “We’ve just got to go there with a winning mind-set. Everything else will take care of itself.” Florida has won seven in a row, including beating ranked teams Mississippi State and Vanderbilt, to climb back into the top 10. The key has been defense. The Gators haven’t allowed an opponent to shoot higher than 44 percent from the field during their winning streak. But they haven’t faced anyone like Kentucky. Coach John Calipari has taken three talented freshmen — Davis, Michael KiddGilchrist and Marquis Teague — and gotten them to build
GENEVA — Three days after U.S. prosecutors dropped their investigation of doping claims against Lance Armstrong, fellow Tour de France champion Alberto Contador was stripped of his 2010 title when sports’ highest court rejected the Spanish cyclist’s story that contaminated meat caused him to fail a drug test. The 29-year-old Contador, who also won the Tour in 2007 and ’09, tested positive for clenbuterol during a Tour rest day in July 2010. Contador’s ban was backdated to Jan. 25, 2011 — making him eligible to return on Aug. 6. “Unlike certain other countries, notably outside Europe, Spain is not known to have a contamination problem with clenbuterol in meat,” the Court of Arbitration for
Sport said in its ruling. “Furthermore, no other cases of athletes having tested positive to clenbuterol allegedly in connection with the consumption of Spanish meat are known.” Contador had been thought likely to challenge Armstrong’s record of seven career Tour victories. Instead, he joins Floyd Landis as the only riders stripped of their Tour titles after testing positive for banned performance-enhancing drugs. Andy Schleck of Luxembourg is now in line to take Contador’s 2010 title. The CAS verdict in Lausanne, Switzerland, was delivered 566 days after Contador cycled triumphantly along the Champs d’Elysees in Paris. The ruling came after Arm-
strong’s own lengthy legal fight ended Friday, with U.S. federal authorities dropping an investigation into alleged doping involving his Tour teams. Cycling’s governing body, which had joined the World Anti-Doping Agency in forcing Contador into court, said it took no satisfaction from upholding its fight against drug cheats. “This is a sad day for our sport,” International Cycling Union president Pat McQuaid said in a statement. “Some may think of it as a victory, but that is not at all the case. There are no winners when it comes to the issue of doping: every case, irrespective of its characteristics, is always a case too many.” The case had been ex-
pected to pit Contador’s meat contamination defense against a UCI-WADA argument that the drug was present in the cyclist’s system because he had used banned blood transfusions. Yet a three-man CAS panel seemed to reach its own conclusion, finding that the presence of clenbuterol, which is sometimes used by farmers to fatten their livestock, was more likely caused by a contaminated food supplement. The CAS ruling upheld appeals by the UCI and WADA, which challenged a Spanish cycling tribunal’s decision last year to exonerate Contador. To avoid a doping ban, Contador needed to prove how the anabolic drug enPlease see CONTADOR | 9

on his performance and the title. They also talked football, with Peyton asking Eli if he saw the middle linebacker on his touchdown pass to Victor Cruz. Eli said no. Peyton, whose future with the Colts was a hot topic in Indianapolis during Super Bowl week, also defended his little brother, Eli said, referring to the 38-yard pass to Mario Manningham on the final Giants drive. Manningham made a terrific catch between two defenders and managed to get his feet down in one of the game’s biggest plays. Many associated the importance of the catch with the one David Tyree made against his helmet in New York’s winning drive four years ago. It wasn’t as good, but it helped just as much. “He (Peyton) talked about the throw to Manningham,” Eli said. “He was mad, he said everybody was talking about how great of a catch it was. He said it was a pretty good throw, also. It’s a brother looking out for me. He was proud of me and happy for me.” Eli Manning didn’t want to hear anything about bragging rights over his brother with two championships.

FLORIDA: ‘You just know that they’re going to take 30, however you guard it’ CONTINUED FROM 8
and they’re a terrific, transition, fast-breaking team.” Florida’s strength is its backcourt and 3-point shooting. Boynton and fellow guard Erving Walker have combined for 52 assists and 18 turnovers during the team’s winning streak. And they’re a big reason the Gators lead the nation in 3-pointers. No surprise, the arc is the main area of concern for the
Wildcats. “You just know that they’re going to take 30, however you guard it, so my guess would be let’s make sure they’re guarded,” Calipari said. “And if they still make 20, we’ve had a heck of a start; who do we play next? I mean, they’re going to take 30. What if they make 20? They may take 35. What if they make 25?” In Kentucky’s closest games of the season, a onepoint win over North Carolina and a one-point loss at In-
diana, the Wildcats gave up a combined 20 3-pointers. “It’s an OK way to play,” Jones said. “You can live or die by it. We’re just going to have to play how we have been playing the last couple of games and we need to build off that.” The Gators haven’t shot nearly as well on the road, but that doesn’t mean they will be rattled playing at always-packed Rupp Arena. After all, Florida already has played at Ohio State and at
Syracuse this season. The Gators lost both of those, and even though they insist the pressure’s on Kentucky, they know what a victory would mean. “A victory would get us a lot of respect,” Boynton said. “But at the end of the day, they’re just another SEC team to us. They’re no different from Tennessee or South Carolina. If we go out there and play the way we’ve been playing lately, we’ve got a great chance of winning.”

tered his body and convince the arbitrators he was not to blame. Spain’s national association of cattle farmers said it had been vindicated by the CAS ruling after having “come under scrutiny following false accusations.” For WADA, Monday’s verdict offered vindication in the wake of the Armstrong case, which was perceived as a stinging defeat for the antidoping community. “This is an appropriate decision from CAS which represents the effective nature of the World Anti-Doping Code,” WADA President John Fahey said. Contador will miss the Giro d’Italia, the Tour de France and the London Olympics, but can ride in the Spanish Vuelta, which begins Aug. 18. He will be stripped of all
results from races in which he participated since Jan. 25, 2011 — the day the Spanish federation proposed a one-year ban. That period includes his Giro d’Italia victory last season. Contador, one of only five cyclists to win the three Grand Tours, had no immediate comment. He is scheduled to hold a news conference Tuesday in his home town of Pinto, near Madrid. He could yet appeal to Switzerland’s supreme court. If Contador appeals to the Swiss Federal Tribunal, the court can decide the legal process was abused but would not examine the merits of the evidence. A federal appeal process typically takes several months, though the court rarely overrules CAS. The four-day CAS hearing in November almost ended in chaos as lawyers for the UCI

in his country. “It is regrettable there was some political interference at the first instance process from Spain which inevitably led to the appeal,” Fahey said Monday. Contador could also face financial pain at world sport’s highest court of appeal: CAS said it would rule later on a request by the UCI to fine him $3.25 million. Armstrong and Contador combined to win nine of the 11 Tours from 1999-2009, but Schleck seems reluctant to take his place alongside them. “There is no reason to be happy now,” Schleck said in a statement issued by his team, RadioShack Nissan Trek. “First of all I feel sad for Alberto. I always believed in his innocence. I battled with Contador in that race and I lost.”

and WADA considered walking out when the panel chairman, Israeli lawyer Efraim Barak, prevented one of their expert witnesses from being questioned about the science of blood doping and transfusions. The sports bodies were also unhappy with how Spanish authorities had conducted the case in its early stages, after the UCI publicly announced in September 2010 it had provisionally suspended Contador pending an investigation by Spain’s cycling federation. Contador was originally cleared last February by the Spanish tribunal, which rejected a recommendation to impose a one-year ban. Days earlier, then Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero said on Twitter that there was no reason to punish the rider, who is idolized

It is easier for me to be home in the your letter. Your fellow morning to get the kids night shifters were in to school and be home complete agreement with when they get off the bus you. My newspaper readin the afternoon. I have ers comment: DEAR ABBY: There’s the early evening free to get them to their ac- nothing unusual about problem. tivities, then go to work “Working’s” I worked the graveyard later. I thoroughly agree that shift for years at difthe rest of the world does ferent jobs in different states, and it was exactly not understand! I’ve had the strang- the same. In my case it est requests from people was usually my mother, because I’m home dur- not my husband, who ing the day. My solution kept waking me up. Even has been to turn off our worse, it wasn’t unusual home phone and sleep for bosses to call and with my cellphone on (in wake me. What surprised me was case one of the kids gets sick at school or some the number of people who other dire emergency). think that sleep is option-
al rather than necessary. They seemed to think that they sleep at night because there’s nothing else to do. — LAURA IN POLLOK, TEXAS DEAR ABBY: Many people don’t understand night workers’ schedules. Relatives would announce that they were coming to visit during my working weekends despite the fact that I’d specifically explained my schedule. My husband would snipe at me in underhanded ways. When I finally confronted him, he admitted that he “subconsciously” felt that someone sleeping during the day was lazy. Working nights is tough. The Harvard Nurses’ Health Study has discovered that night workers get less rest even if they get a good day’s sleep, that we make less melatonin and we die younger. — R.N. IN CONNECTICUT DEAR ABBY: I sympathize with “Working.” I also work a graveyard
shift so I can be home with our newborn and not have to put him in day care eight hours a day. It’s hard for people to understand that even though it’s daytime for them, it’s my night! I found myself running errands, marketing, etc., because I felt guilty being at home all day and “doing nothing.” It took its toll on me until I got to the point where I could barely function. I finally had to get over my issues about being home during the day and realize that I was putting in a 40-hour week just like anyone else. Since I didn’t expect to do my chores at 3 a.m., I would no longer let anyone expect it of me. I still sleep in shifts to keep my son’s time at day care to a minimum, but when I sleep, I don’t let anyone interrupt. The world is going to have to wait until I get up. Please tell “Working” not to let anyone make her feel guilty. Every-
one needs sleep, and she shouldn’t have to justify it to anyone. — FELLOW THIRD SHIFTER IN INDIANAPOLIS DEAR ABBY: I worked nights for years. My husband’s friends thought they were being funny when they’d call me at 7 a.m. asking, “How’s the ‘bat’ doing?” One night at 3 a.m. I called each one of them to ask how they were doing. After that, I never received an early call again. My husband didn’t respect me either. He wanted me to get up at 7 a.m. to watch our son so he could play golf. I finally divorced him. — FULLY RESTED IN NEW MEXICO Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The full moon in Leo is a vaudevillian extravaganza complete with sword swallowers, coloratura sopranos and tap dancing comedians. Well, perhaps the performers in your world won’t have these exact talents, but they’ll have equivalent gifts, which they’ll employ to shock, astound and delight you. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Productivity is linked to being in tune with your natural rhythms. Take cues from your body. When you’re
OUR MESSAGE Most people are satisfied to receive all their religious knowledge filtered through the mind of some teacher, preacher, theologian, or commentator and never go to the Bible for an independent study. They inevitably become mere echoes of the opinions and doctrines of others. They are not grounded in the Bible, hence they are being carried about with every wind of doctrine. So please go to the original source of spiritual truth, the Bible, for your facts, faith and practices in Christianity. Our message is not to tell others what to believe and practice religiously, but to call all men back to the study of the Bible. Remember, we are saved by faith (Rom 5:1) and faith comes only by hearing God’s word (Rom. 10:17). One must study for himself the Bible, the only guide to heaven (2 Tim 3:15-17). Our message is that each person must study and know the Bible in order to do God’s will. We have a divine revelation the Bible, to study, to know, to believe, and to obey. (Acts 17:11; John 8:32; 1 Pet. 1:22-23). One must realize the importance of Bible Study. Bible Study is essential to becoming a Christian. One must do the will of God to go to heaven (Matt. 7:21), but one can’t do what he does not know. One must know the will of God in order to do it to go to heaven (John 8:32) but one can’t know what he has not studied. Therefore, one must study the will of God, in order to know it, in order to do it, in order to go to heaven. One can’t do what he does not know, and one can’t know what he has not studied. Many will be lost because they don’t study the Bible, to know God’s will, in order to do God’s will to be saved (Matt. 7:21). The only reason for believing and following any religious doctrine is that it is TRUE. Truth believed and obeyed will save your soul (1 Pet. 1:22), and the truth is God’s word (John 17:17). Error or a lie believed and obeyed will damn your soul (2 Thess. 2:10-12). Therefore it does matter what one believes and practices, so go to the Bible and read it, believe it, and obey it to the saving of your soul (James 1:22). The churches of Christ are restoring undenominational Christianity by believing and obeying the Bible only and becoming Christians only. The same process that makes one a Christian adds him to the church of Christ (Acts 2:47). Study your Bible to see what it says about the church of Christ (Rom. 16:16), and come and see. If we’re doing anything unscriptural, show us in the Bible and we’ll STOP it immediately. If we are not doing something that we should, show us in the Bible that it should be done and we will START it immediately.

tired, rest. Your inclination to re-caffeinate and push through the lethargy is unwise and counterproductive. TAURUS (April 20May 20). You have quite a responsibility today. You are, after all, the external expression of existence. And whether you think about it or not, how you live and feel will be vitally important to the universal order. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Sometimes you have to work hard not to have an edge in your voice, and the effort is definitely worthwhile. The way you talk shows the level of compassion you have for yourself and your loved ones. CANCER (June 22-July 22). When a situation, outcome or person does not measure up to your expectations, it is easy to feel disappointed and critical. Try to get past these emotions, though, because there is a golden opportunity in the works. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a special talent for facing reality and interpreting things in such a way that those around you can easily face it, too. It may feel like you have
to tap dance to keep your audience engaged. Luckily, you’re rather good at the art of dance. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A special relationship is strong because you have faced adversity together. In a strange way, the easy and fun times may be more difficult to navigate than the hard times. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Relationships are tricky. If you stay aware, you can keep a dicey situation from veering too far off course. You can bring this one closer to the way you once dreamed it would be. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). The road smoothes out ahead. It’s as though you are the first to hit the brand-new pavement, and you’re in for an easy ride. It’s about time. You’re way overdue. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll give of yourself without recompense or even thanks. There’s no accounting for other people’s manners, but you’ll always feel better about yourself for having made the effort to enrich the lives of others. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You can access

QUESTIONS: “I’ve just been informed that I’m not a very good friend. Apparently, several of my friends have discussed this when I wasn’t there, and one of them was kind enough to give me the heads up. I’m a 23-yearold Capricorn woman, single, career driven and social. It’s true that I don’t always call people back because I’m superbusy. But knowing how my friends have been talking about me behind my back, I’m wondering whether it’s not me but they who are being unfriendly. What do you think?” Congratulations on being big enough to consider that the problem might be you. The fact that you are willing to look at the situation objectively instead of retaliating with a kneejerk reaction suggests that you are capable of mature relationships, and perhaps your “friends” are not. Because Capricorns do have a strong personality, it’s important that you keep yourself accountable to the basic tenets of friendship. Are you there for others? Are you easy to be around?

your intuition through the land of imagination. Though it is sometimes tricky to distinguish the difference between useful information and fearful fantasies, keep trying, and you’ll soon get the knack of it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). You can only push yourself to the limit if you know where the limit is. If you don’t, it’s best to hang back and observe. There is no benefit to overloading yourself. Doing so could lead to regret. Err on the side of caution. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You know there are certain things a loved one could be doing to improve. How often should you speak of it? Not very often if you want to love, and not dominate, this person. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 7). You’ll break out of your routine and upgrade your lifestyle this year. You share a psychic connection with a loved one, and this will be expressed in many ways. June features an unforgettable party.

Bomb plant demolition continues in Oak Ridge Associated Press
OAK RIDGE, Tenn. — K-25, the world’s largest building at the time of its construction in World War II, is getting smaller by the day as workers — using an armada of bulldozers, cranes and other tools of demolition — take down the brawny facilities that once processed uranium for atomic bombs and nuclear reactors. Thousands of truckloads of contaminated rubble and debris have been hauled away from the site since demolition of K-25 began in December 2008. Work on the West Wing was completed in early 2010 by Bechtel Jacobs Co., the U.S. Department of Energy’s former cleanup contractor in Oak Ridge. Work on the East Wing is proceeding at an accelerated pace under the direction of URS/CH2M Oak Ridge (UCOR), which
took over cleanup operations last summer. The pace could pick up even more if DOE reaches a final agreement with historic preservation groups. DOE last week distributed draft copies of a Final Memorandum of Agreement, which outlines the federal agency’s commitment to spend more than $9 million on a series of projects to make up for the loss of historic K-25 — one of the so-called “signature” facilities of the Manhattan Project that produced the first atomic bombs. Under the agreement, DOE would sponsor a K-25 History Center at the site (now known as the East Tennessee Technology Park), including an adjacent facility to house some original equipment that was used to process uranium in a gaseous form and concentrate the fissionable U-235 isotope.
DOE would also provide a $500,000 grant to go toward preservation of the much-deteriorated Alexander Inn, originally called the Guest House. The Guest House served as a home away from home for such luminaries as Robert Oppenheimer, technical director of the wartime A-bomb project. DOE also is committed to saving the “footprint” of the original mile-long, U-shaped K-25 facility in order for visitors to appreciate the size and scale of the uranium operation, which was shut down in 1963 after supplying enriched uranium for the nation’s Cold War arsenal of nuclear weapons. David Adler of DOE said the agency and its contractors will try to preserve the concrete pad underneath the four-story K-25 if that proves feasible. There are questions about whether the pad’s
surface and surroundings can be sufficiently decontaminated for unrestricted use by the public, he said. The Final MOA was submitted to a number of “consulting parties” for their approval. There is a 15-day comment period to offer suggestions for changes. The key players, in addition to DOE, are the Advisory Council for Historic Preservation, the Tennessee Historical Commission and state’s historic preservation officer, the city of Oak Ridge, and the East Tennessee Preservation Alliance. Representatives of those groups and other parties interested in preservation and history gathered Nov. 17 in Oak Ridge to talk about a new agreement, and many opinions and priorities were expressed. Gaining approval of the MOA is important for DOE to comply with the
National Historic Preservation Act and to proceed with demolition of K-25. Under a previous Memorandum of Agreement, signed in 2005, DOE promised to preserve the North End of K-25 (the bottom of the “U”) as a central part of efforts to show future generations how the wartime atomic bomb activities were conducted. However, DOE later backed away from that 2005 commitment, citing the building’s structural deterioration. The federal agency said conditions were so unsafe that it made no sense to do anything other than tear it down. The yearslong debate over historic preservation has already impacted the K-25 project, which is reported to be the largest nuclear decommissioning project in history. Because the 2005 MOA
is still in effect, DOE has vowed not to take any action to demolish the North Tower until a new agreement is reached. In a Feb. 1 cover letter to the MOA, DOE’s Susan Cange — the acting federal cleanup chief in Oak Ridge — said DOE is allowing its contractor to begin the procurement process for a subcontract to remove the North Tower’s asbestosladen siding. That action is necessary because of the long lead time necessary for such a procurement, she said, but no physical work will take place until the MOA is signed. In the same letter, Cange praised all those who passionately participated in the long process and said the results will “commemorate one of the great chapters of American history, which took place at the K-25 complex during and after the Second World War.”
Defense budget cuts test lawmakers’ resolve on deficits BY DONNA CASSATA Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s call to shrink the military, shut bases and cancel weapons to meet the demand for budget cuts tests the resolve of lawmakers who came to Washington determined to slash the deficit. A new national security strategy reflecting an end to decade-long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan offers the opportunity to reduce defense spending and government deficits by hundreds of billions of dollars over the next 10 years — but at a cost of thousands of jobs in lawmakers’ states and districts. Democrats as well as Republicans are resisting, looking to protect home turf from California,
where the Global Hawk unmanned aircraft is built, to Wisconsin, home to speedy Littoral combat ships, to military installations all across the country. “It’s funny that we want to save money everywhere except when it can bother us,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in an interview. Graham is a member of the Armed Services Committee and one of the few lawmakers who favors another round of domestic base closings. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta recently outlined a $525 billion budget for next year that’s $6 billion less than the current level. The proposal is the first step in the deficit-cutting plan that Obama and congressional Republicans agreed to last summer that
calls for a reduction in projected defense spending of $487 billion over 10 years. “Make no mistake, the savings that we are proposing will impact on all 50 states and many districts, congressional districts, across America,” Panetta said at a news conference spelling out the new strategy. “This will be a test, a test of whether reducing the deficit is about talk or about action.” Obama submits his complete budget proposal to Congress on Feb. 13, but Panetta’s preview included enough details to stir alarm on Capitol Hill. The budget calls for canceling the Air Force’s Global Hawk program, a highaltitude unmanned aircraft used for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. The Pentagon said

the aircraft’s cost at $215 million apiece make it less cost-effective than the existing U-2 spy planes that burst on the scene in the 1950s and were critical in finding Soviet missiles in Cuba in 1962. Northrop Grumman, the aircraft’s prime contractor, builds the planes in Palmdale, Calif., located in the district of the House Armed Services Committee Chairman Howard “Buck” McKeon. The aircraft is based at Beale Air Force Base, near Marysville, Calif., soon to be in the redrawn congressional district of Democratic Rep. John Garamendi, a member of the committee. The program also is one of many that the Air Force manages at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in the district

of Rep. Michael Turner, ROhio, another committee member. McKeon has criticized the overall military cuts but has not commented specifically on the Global Hawk. The Republican did send a clear message to the Pentagon and the White House when he promised to hold hearings on the budget “keeping in mind that while the president proposes, Congress disposes.” Garamendi questioned the Pentagon’s rationale, especially since six months ago it called the Global Hawk a critical program with no alternatives “that will provide acceptable capability to meet the joint military requirement at less cost.” “Now we’re going in the other direction and I’m
going, ‘guys you got some explaining to do. What changed? What is the reason here?” Garamendi, who has been a strong proponent of Beale AFB, said in an interview. He called the U-2 an “incredible machine, but it can’t stay over the target for 20 hours. Global Hawk can stay there for a day or more. So explanations are needed.” Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter’s reason at the briefing with Panetta: “That’s the fate of things that become too expensive in a resource-constrained environment.” But just a few months ago, the Pentagon had said that “when analyzed in the context of the Global Hawk mission, the U-2 costs $220 million per year more than the Global Hawk.”
