Saturday will be a time to honor local Vietnam veterans.

The American Legion Perry A. Johns Post 6 will host a special event on Saturday from 7 to 9 a.m., when Alcorn County Vietnam veterans and their families can enjoy a complementary breakfast prepared by the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary.

Vietnam veterans will also be given a complimentary copy of “A Time to Honor: Stories of Service, Duty, and Sacrifice”, a Vietnam War 50th anniversary commemorative book.

A resolution was signed by the governor earlier this year to provide the books for free to all Vietnam veterans in the state.

The state is also partnering with the Mississippi State Veterans Affairs Board and The Friends of Mississippi Veterans in the program.

“This is just a small token of our appreciation for their service and sacrifice,” said Bobby McDaniel, Post 6 finance officer. “We can’t do enough for these men – especially after how they were treated when they returned home from the war.”

McDaniel added, “I’m not a Vietnam veteran, but I’m very thankful and supportive of them – they need the credit, not me.”

McDaniel said four Alcorn County state office holders supported the measure to provide the free books to Vietnam veterans statewide.

A new four-way stop is planned near Corinth Middle School.

It is part of ongoing efforts to improve safety in the area, particularly for students who leave the school and cross East Shiloh Road to get to First Presbyterian Church in the afternoons.

The stop will be at the intersection of Sixth Street and Douglas Street, which is currently a two-way stop. The new stop will be established soon along with the placement of pedestrian crosswalk signs on East Shiloh Road and striping.

The section of Douglas Street between Sixth and East Shiloh has been recently resurfaced and reworked with the addition of a sidewalk.

“There was a sidewalk coming from the middle school from Fifth Street up to Sixth, and then it just stopped,” said Public Works Director Clayton Mills. “There was nothing going on over to the church.”

To accommodate the sidewalk, the city has made that block of Douglas Street oneway only for traffic turning off of East Shiloh and heading

Santa Claus is coming to the Red Green Market to help save the fire truck.

The Crossroads Museum will host their annual Photos with Santa fundraiser on Saturday during the Red Green Market at the Corinth Depot.

All proceeds will benefit the museum’s continued efforts to raise money to build a display structure for Corinth’s 1924 American LaFrance fire engine.

Santa, portrayed by Sonny Boatman, will be on site from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. inside the museum. For a $15 donation to the fire truck fund, parents can have their child’s or pet’s photo taken with Santa by professional photographer Bill Avery.

State Briefs Rebel-theme flag taken back down from city hall OCEAN SPRINGS — The Mississippi state flag with the Confederate battle emblem has once again been removed from a city hall.

For years, the flag was absent from city buildings in Ocean Springs. Republican Shea Dobson ordered that it be put back up when he became mayor in July.

WLOX-TV reports Dobson removed the flag from display Tuesday after hearing repeatedly from residents who say it’s racist. He says the flag was a distraction.

All eight of Mississippi’s public universities and several cities and counties have stopped flying the flag, the last state banner

featuring the Confederate emblem. Many have removed it since the racially motivated killing of nine black worshippers in a Charleston, South Carolina, church in June 2015 by a white man who had posed for photos with the rebel flag.

Suspect in stabbing at casino arrested BILOXI — Federal marshals have arrested a Mississippi man sought for a stabbing at the Hard Rock Casino Hotel.

Biloxi Police Maj. Christopher De Back said Tuesday that marshals arrested 29-yearold Hallis Wayne Russ Jr., of Vancleave, and his girlfriend, 37-yearold Brandi Delaine Ratliff, of Louisville, at the home of an acquaintance.

southbound toward the school.

“It was hard for a driver to get out onto Shiloh,” said Construction Works Supervisor John Michael Tucker. “You can’t really see to get out there.”

Improving safety for students heading from the school to the church

has been a concern for some time. As the city began doing some of the work in the area, “I was surprised how many students go from the middle school to the Presbyterian Church,” said Mills.

The new crosswalk signs will be like those recently placed in the park area on South Parkway.

State seeks federal approval to require job training for Medicaid Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi is seeking federal permission to require job training for some ablebodied adults who receive Medicaid, and the Trump administration has signaled that is open to approving such plans.

Medicaid is a health insurance program paid by federal and state money.

It covers the needy, aged, blind and disabled, and

low-income families with children.

Mississippi is one of the poorest states in the nation, and nearly 706,000 of the state’s residents were enrolled in Medicaid last month — about 24 percent of its population.

About 15,000 to 20,000 low-income parents or caregiver relatives could be affected by the job training mandate if the federal

government approves the state’s proposal, said Erin Barham, spokeswoman for the Mississippi Division of Medicaid.

The low-income parent or caregiver relative category includes more than 56,000 people, but Barham said the state’s proposal would exempt some from the job training requirement, such as people diagnosed with a mental illness and full-

time caregivers for a person who cannot care for himself or herself.

The state’s application says the training could reduce Medicaid expenses by helping people find jobs with health coverage.

“We believe the initiatives outlined in this application will assist us in ensuring the viability of the Medicaid program for future generations,” the application says.

“Bricks will be placed on sidewalks surrounding the display structure for generations of Corinthians and visitors to enjoy.”

With personalized engravings, the bricks are available in sizes of 4 by 8 inches for $50, 8 by 8 inches for $150 and 12 by 12 for $350. The museum board recommends memorializing loved ones or recognizing fire or other emergency personnel.

A multi-use facility is planned to both house the fire truck and provide a second-level viewing platform to watch passing trains and see the famous rail junction.

Once displayed, the fire truck will be on loan to the museum by the City of Corinth.

McNairy County Job program getting national recognition

SELMER, Tenn. — The De-

partment of Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities once again led the effort to gain federal support and recognition of Tennessee’s leadership in providing inclusive and competitive job opportunities to people with disabilities in McNairy County and throughout southwest Tennessee.

The U.S. Department of Labor Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) named Tennessee as a Core and Community of Practice State in the Employment First State Leadership Mentoring Program (EFSLMP) for the 6th consecutive year. Through the program, state agencies and disability service providers receive technical assistance and training to further efforts to increase competitive, integrated employment outcomes for McNairy County residents with disabilities. “Tennessee continues to be recognized for the successes that come from bringing all

stakeholders to the table with the single-minded focus of improving employment for people with disabilities,� DIDD Commissioner Debra K. Payne said. “I’m grateful for the support provided through the Employment First State Leadership Mentoring Program that will enhance our efforts and help us meet our goal of doubling the employment rate for people who receive support over the next five years.�

In 2018, Tennessee will focus on increasing the number of DIDD providers transforming from segregated workshops to community-based employment and improving employer engagement to better connect people with businesses in their communities.

Tennessee will also pursue efforts to expand access to Individual Placement and Support (IPS) services for people who have a behavioral health diagnosis. IPS is an evidencebased supported employment

practice that has been shown to significantly increase employment outcomes.

In addition to the individuals served by the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (DMHSAS), an estimated 40% of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) also have a co-occurring mental illness or significant behavioral issue. “As Governor Haslam often says, ‘all means all.’ There is growing awareness across our state that all Tennesseans are capable of working and deserve the opportunity to be part of the workforce,� said Jeremy Norden-Paul, DIDD State Director of Employment and Day Services. “It’s our job, as a department and as a state, to explore innovative practices to make that vision a reality. EFSLMP is instrumental to our success and adds momentum to our Employment First movement.�

State Briefs Electric utility seeks higher rates for customers JACKSON — Mississippi Power Co. says it’s asking regulators for a rate increase next year to cover higher overall business costs, including higher costs for power plant fuel.

The unit of Atlanta-based Southern Co., the smaller of Mississippi’s two privatelyowned electrical utilities, made filings Wednesday with the Mississippi Public Service Commission.

The move would boost monthly rates for a yardstick residential customer from about $135 a month to about $146 a month. About half the money would cover higher fuel costs, while about half would be an increase in basic rates.

Commissioners are likely to decide on increases early next year, at the same time they’re deciding how much the company’s 187,000 customers should pay for a power plant in Kemper County. Missis-

Governor’s budget has free community college JACKSON — Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant is recommending that the state spend $7 million in the coming year to provide free community college for an unspecified number of students.

The Republican says it would help people learn job skills that could lead to good wages. Bryant suggested a similar, but smaller, scholarship program three years ago and legislators did not fund it.

Bryant on Wednesday released his spending suggestions for fiscal 2019, which begins July 1. Top lawmakers release theirs later this month.

Bryant recommends no new money for most state government programs.

Among his few suggested increases are nearly $4.5 million to train more Highway Patrol

troopers and $5.5 million for repair and renovation of some state buildings.

All legislators should get to vote on a budget by late March.

Man accused of stealing school security funds BILOXI — The former police chief of a Mississippi school district has been indicted on charges that he stole $170,000.

Paul Gordon Cannette, an Ocean Springs man who was police chief of the Biloxi school district, is accused of embezzling from the Mississippi Association of School Resource Officers. The association gets state money through a grant program meant to pay for school security officers.

Cannette was arrested Tuesday and released on $50,000 bail. It’s unclear if he has a lawyer.

State Auditor Stacey Pickering is demanding that Cannette, who resigned from his posts in Biloxi and the associa-

tion, pay nearly $245,000. That reflects not only the missing money but also interest and investigation costs.

If Cannette doesn’t pay the money within 30 days, Pickering could sue him in a civil lawsuit.

Police: 14-year-old girl shot in head in dies JACKSON — A 14-year-old girl who was shot in the head in Mississippi’s capital city has died, and a 15-year-old boy is charged with murder.

Jackson Police spokesman Sgt. Roderick Holmes said Alexandria Love died from her injuries Tuesday evening following the Saturday night shooting.

The police department said in a tweet that the charges against Sheroderick Elmore have been upgraded to murder.

Elmore was arrested Monday on aggravated assault charges.

Holmes said at the time that Elmore would be charged as an adult because of the violent crime.

Evil cannot defeat work of the church

Opinion

Mark Boehler, editor

Corinth, Miss.

BY DR. GLENN MOLLETTE Columnist

...‘‘On this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell will not overcome it,” Matthew 16:18 It was a day vomited up from the belly of hell itself. Satan paraded into the wide-open streets of Sutherland Springs, Texas, and tried to annihilate a small God loving, Bible preaching church. He literally stormed into that church and tried to obliterate that congregation. In effect that same enemy in so many ways shook his fist and aimed his fiery gun of extinction at your church, your pulpit, your ministry and all you have ever wanted to do and be for Jesus Christ. In every way our enemy wanted to end the existence of that First Baptist Church and the precious people of that church. However, he was also attempting to end your church. Satan showed his cruelty again. He hates babies, little children and grandmothers. He hates family and preachers of the gospel. He hates the message of the gospel and what Christianity is doing in saving souls and changing people.

My heart has been broken this week, as I have thought about the terror that gripped those precious people in Sutherland Springs last Sunday. I know those people are with Jesus today. I know he has dried their tears and they are singing a new song. We must now pray that God lifts up the church, the pastor and those remaining people and that the power of the Holy Spirit ignites them in a way unlike before. Pray please for comfort as those people are hurting.

Friend, likewise I hope you will be ignited in your service for Jesus. My heart has been broken and I have been angered by the evil that is moving across this planet. We must stand up. We cannot be hunkered down behind locked doors in fear.

The disciples were so afraid after the crucifixion of Jesus. They knew they could be next.

The resurrected Jesus stood in the midst and said, “Peace be unto you.” Later, after being filled with the Holy Spirit the disciples left their place of security and boldly preached Jesus Christ with power.

If there hasn’t been already, I am praying that you have a defining moment in your life when the devil himself will not intimidate you. Resolve within your heart to step up in your life and church. May your service, your calling and commitment be more than ever before for Jesus.

Also, be wise. Work with your people to be on guard. The best offense is a good defense.

Train your people to be on guard for those Satan may send your way to try to disrupt and hurt you or your people. You must always have two or three people or more stationed to guard your people. We must not be caught off guard again in our places of worship and service for Jesus.

Keep serving. Keep Preaching. Do not be held back or intimidated in what God has called you to do for Him. I am praying for you, your life and ministry.

Poverty is not caused by wealth A new study released by the left-leaning Institute for Policy Studies in Washington, D.C., headlines what they see as shocking news that in America some people are much wealthier than others.

Some findings of the study, titled “Billionaire Bonanza: The Forbes 400 and the Rest of Us,” are: • “The three wealthiest people in the United States -- Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Warren Buffett -- now own more wealth than the entire bottom half of the American population.”

• The 400 billionaires on the Forbes 400 list “now own more wealth than the bottom 64 percent of the American population.”

• “One in five US households ... have zero or negative net worth. Over 30 percent of black households and 27 percent of Latino households have zero or negative net worth.”

The message that IPS wishes to convey here is that there’s a connection between wealth at the top and dismal economic circumstances at the bottom.

That is, the poor are poor because the rich are rich.

Its proposed solution for narrowing the gap between rich and poor follows this

Prayer for today Almighty God, help me in these fleeting days that I may not use my time to consider and hesitate, but be positive in my desires and pursue them. Grant that I may have the strength to hold each day precious, and live it more than consistently. Amen.

A verse to share A hot-tempered person stirs up conflict, but the one who is patient calms a quarrel.

premise.

The way to make the poor less poor, in its view, is to make the Star rich less Parker rich. And, of course, Columnist it proposes to do this with government power.

“By taxing our wealthiest, we could raise significant revenues and then invest these funds to expand wealth-building opportunities across the economy.”

If we accept the questionable assumption that higher taxes on the wealthy would raise “significant revenues,” who exactly, according to its plan, would invest these funds to produce all these new opportunities?

Those with the greatest investment skills are those on the Forbes 400 list, who the IPS sees as the problem and who it wants to punish for being successful.

So in all likelihood it’s a government bureaucrat that it wants to put in charge of making these brilliant “wealth-building” investments.

But bureaucrats would not be bureaucrats if they

knew how to invest and create wealth. We’ve been through this before -- the list of failed government projects is long. Recall most recently the Solyndra scandal -- the failed solar panel firm backed by the Obama administration -- leaving taxpayers on the hook for $535 million in federal guarantees.

Who are these billionaires on the Forbes 400 list? Joshua Rauh of the Stanford University School of Business and Steven Kaplan of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business studied the list.

In 2011, 32 percent came from wealthy families, compared to 60 percent in 1982. And in 2011, 69 percent started their own businesses compared to 40 percent in 1982. So these are increasingly individuals who created their own wealth.

And the fact is, the wealthy already pay the lion’s share of the nation’s taxes, and this has increased over time.

According to the Tax Foundation, in 2014, those whose incomes were in the top 1 percent paid 39.5 percent of all taxes. In 1982, the top 1 percent paid 19 percent of all taxes. Raising

taxes more on the highest income earners will benefit tax lawyers and lobbyists and do little for the rest of us.

Envy doesn’t create wealth. Freedom and character does. How about we focus less on punishing those who succeed and more on helping those who are not realizing their potential?

Harvard economist Martin Feldstein estimates that cutting corporates taxes would raise national income by $500 billion -$3,500 per household. I say we cut them even more for businesses opening in distressed communities.

Let’s admit that our massive welfare state has been a disaster. I have long been for allowing low-income Americans to stop paying the payroll tax and instead use these funds to invest in a personal retirement account to build personal wealth.

These are just starters.

We should be looking for ideas to bring up the bottom. Not dragging down the top.

Roy Moore loses the ‘he said/she said’ Roy Moore’s reputation depends on denying that he dated teenage girls as a grown man, and yet he can’t quite bring himself to do it.

The Alabama Republican’s campaign for the Senate has been rocked by allegations of sexual improprieties with underage girls. While he’s denied the worst of the allegations, he turned in a rocky performance in an interview with radio talk-show host Sean Hannity that lent credence to the charges against him rather than dispelled them.

The alleged conduct dates back 40 years, and absent some difficult-to-imagine documentary proof, it will always be Moore’s word against that of his accusers. In this contest, Moore’s word is clearly the loser.

The Washington Post broke the original story of a woman, Leigh Corfman, saying Roy Moore touched her sexually when she was 14 years old; two other women told the Post that Moore dated and kissed them when they were teenagers. Then another woman, Beverly Young Nelson, appeared at a press conference with liberal lawyer Gloria Allred

and accused Moore of trying to force himself on her in his car when she was 16 Rich years old.

M o o r e Lowry naturally National slammed Review the integrity of the Post and Allred. None of Moore’s accusers are liberal journalists working for The Washington Post, though.

And Beverly Young Nelson stipulated that she and her husband voted for Donald Trump last year.

Moore’s other refrain is to ask why, after he’s been in the public eye for decades, are these allegations coming out now a month before a Senate election?

It’s a fair question. But Moore, long a radioactive figure at the state level, has never felt the heat of the national press corps quite like this before. He just won a Senate primary race that gained national attention as a front in a GOP civil war, and he’s gained new prominence at a time when women are, en masse, telling of

their experiences with sexual harassers.

Moore hasn’t done himself any favors. In the Hannity interview, he first said, referring to Leigh Corfman and the other women in the Post report, “I’ve never known this woman or anything with regard to the other girls.” Then, in almost the same breath, he conceded, “I do recognize however the names of two these young ladies.” Oh. Of one of the girls, he said: “I don’t remember going out on dates. I knew her as a friend. If we did go on dates then we did.” How many men in their 30s are “friends” with teenage girls who they may or may not have dated? Then Moore said of these two girls, “neither of them have ever stated any inappropriate behavior” -- even though both of them said he dated and kissed them.

Asked point-blank if he dated girls in their teens, he replied with the less than Shermanesque, “Not generally, no.”

her credibility. The Post confirmed that she told one friend at the time that she was seeing an older man and another that she was seeing Moore, and court records confirm that her mother was at an Alabama courthouse around the time Moore allegedly offered to watch the 14-year-old Leigh while she attended a hearing.

No doubt, Moore will just as strongly reject Beverly Young Nelson’s damning story. She said that Moore expressed an interest in her when she was working as a waitress and signed her high-school yearbook with a flirty message. Sure enough, she produced the yearbook with a cringeinducing inscription saying how beautiful she is, signed, “Love, Roy Moore.”

At this point, there are two options: Either several different women who don’t know one another have decided to take the enormous personal risk of making up stories about Roy Moore in a vast political conspiracy, or a politician caught up in a scandal with every incentive to dissemble is doing it -- and not very well.

Northeast honors vocational education pioneer

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College honored a pioneer in vocational education Tuesday with the naming of a building on the Booneville campus.

Hale Aust, who established the school’s vocational-technical education program during his tenure at the school from 1960 to 1988, was celebrated during a ceremony naming a vocational building on Tiger Loop as P. Hale Aust Hall.

NEMCC President Ricky Ford said Aust’s time at the school made a lasting impact on the institution. Aust was responsible for building a program that is today at the center of one of the school’s most vital roles and left a legacy of dedication and service that continues today.

“You’ve got to recognize that and appreciate that,” said Ford.

Aust came to the school as an industrial arts instructor in

1960 and in 1965 was tasked by school president Harold T. White with creating a vocational-technical program. He served as director of vocationaltechnical education from 1965 until he retired in 1988.

The longtime educator said Tuesday it takes the support of numerous people for a program or a person to succeed and thanked all of those who helped him build the program as he recalled his years spent at the school.

He said when he received the letter informing him of the plan to name the building in his honor he was overwhelmed.

“Needless to say, I cried. I’ve never been so honored in my life. This is a marvelous event for me,” he said.

He also recognized his family, including his wife, LaJuan, their daughters, Jessica and Amanda, and grandchildren, John Farris and Preston, for their love and support through the years.

Thousands pack Texas Trump keeps silent as more Republicans church funeral service call for Moore to drop out of Senate race for shooting victims

BY EMILY SCHMALL AND ERIC GAY Associated Press

S U T H E R L A N D SPRINGS, Texas — Three thousand mourners filled an event center to capacity Wednesday for the funeral of eight members of a family who were among the more than two dozen killed in a shooting at a small Texas church.

Families of the victims accompanied black and white hearses in limousines as fire marshals and sheriff’s deputies shepherded hundreds more — some in funeral attire, others in everyday clothes — to the funeral in Floresville, Texas, about 12 miles from the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, where the Nov. 5 shooting occurred.

Church member John Holcombe, among the massacre’s few survivors, invited the public to attend the funeral of his pregnant wife, Crystal, 36, and three of her children, Greg, 13, Emily, 11, and Megan, 9; his parents, 60-year-old Bryan and Karla Holcombe, 58; a brother, 36-yearold Marc Holcombe, and Marc’s 18-month-old daughter, Noah. The dead will be buried privately on an unspecified date.

News reporters were barred from entering the event center and were being held in a pen with two trucks obscuring the view inside.

The gunman, Devin Patrick Kelley, began firing into the church as John Holcombe’s father, Bryan Holcombe, an assistant pastor, ascended to the pulpit. Walking up and down the center aisle, Kelley killed 25 people at the church, including crying babies at point-blank range, according to witness accounts. Authorities have put the official toll at 26, because Crystal Holcombe was pregnant.

Holcombe was manag-

ing the church’s audiovisual operations at the back of the building and escaped with minor injuries. Crystal Holcombe’s 7-year-old daughter Evelyn also escaped the barrage of gunfire. Her eldest child, 14-year-old Phillip, had stayed home from church services that day.

Kelley died of what appeared to be a selfinflicted gunshot wound after he fled in a vehicle.

Authorities say Kelley was involved in a domestic dispute with his motherin-law, a member of the church who wasn’t present that day. However, among the victims was Lula White, the gunman’s wife’s 71-year-old grandmother.

Kelley had a history of domestic violence: He was given a bad conduct discharge from the Air Force after pleading guilty to assaulting his first wife and stepson.

Under federal law, anyone convicted of domestic violence cannot purchase a firearm. But the Air Force failed to inform federal law enforcement authorities that Kelley had been court-martialed. When he tried to buy guns after his release from a military prison, his conviction was not in the database used to conduct background checks, and the purchases went through.

In addition to those killed, another 20 people were injured in the shooting. Eight survivors remained hospitalized Wednesday at two San Antonio-area hospitals, their condition ranging from good to critical.

Brooke Army Medical Center reported five adults, listed in good to critical condition. University Health System had two children and one adult still hospitalized, with their conditions ranging from fair to serious.

BY ZEKE MILLER AND STEVE PEOPLES Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump kept uncharacteristically silent and out of the fight Wednesday as national Republicans called ever more insistently for Roy Moore to abandon his Alabama campaign for the U.S. Senate and party officials sourly debated options that none of them liked. Far from surrendering, Moore’s camp fought back against allegations of sexual impropriety with teenage girls years ago when he was in his 30s.

Trump, who withstood allegations of sexual assault weeks before his own election, ducked questions about the Alabama race and whether he would join GOP congressional leaders in urging Moore to step aside.

With Moore’s would-be colleagues threatening to expel him should he win and the Republican National Committee and National Republican Senatorial Committee pulling their support, Trump was seen as the best hope for pushing a fellow political rebel from the race.

Instead, Moore, twice removed from his post as state Supreme Court chief justice, confronted his party with two damaging potential election outcomes. His victory would saddle GOP senators with a colleague accused of abusing and harassing teenagers, a troubling liability heading into next year’s congressional elections, while a loss to Democrat Doug Jones would slice the already narrow GOP Senate majority to an unwieldy 51-49.

Behind the scenes, aides described Trump as vexed by the Moore issue. At any rate, he might make an uncomfortable critic: The allegations against the bombastic former judge echo Trump’s own political problems when he was accused weeks before the 2016 election of more than a dozen instances of sexual harassment.

National Republicans, including many of the same now abandoning Moore, withdrew their endorsements or halted their efforts on Trump’s behalf at the time.

Republican allies of the administration expressed concern about Trump’s silence, warn-

ing that Moore will be in the news for weeks, as will the president’s refusal to weigh in.

Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity joined the GOP critics during his show Tuesday evening, saying he was giving Moore 24 hours to explain “inconsistencies” in his response to allegations of child molestation or else exit the Alabama race.

Showing no signs of surrender, Moore’s campaign chairman and personal attorney addressed the media in Alabama, trying to undercut the story of the latest woman to accuse Moore of sexu-

ally accosting her when she was in high school.

The attorney, Phillip Jauregui, demanded that Beverly Young Nelson “release the yearbook” she contends Moore signed. He questioned that the signature was Moore’s and said it should be submitted for handwriting analysis.

Neither the attorney nor the campaign manager addressed the original allegations from Leigh Corfman concerning sexual contact she said Moore initiated when she was 14, or the other allegations of impropriety with teenagers.

THANKSGIVING

When the first settlers came to the eastern shore of this new land, despite their many difficulties, and losses, they, along with their new native neighbors, offered thanks to God for their abundant blessings. In the generations that have followed, we have continued to do the same. This holiday provides us an opportunity to reflect on the abundance we enjoy. Take the time to sit down one day and write a list of all your blessings. It seems the more one writes, the more things one thinks of. Most of us enjoy reasonably good, if not excellent, health. Even if you have some issues in that area, you are only a few miles and minutes from doctors, and other health care professionals. Most of us are blessed with more than sufficient housing, food and clothing in an abundance that many in preceding generations never knew. We are able to worship God as he directs, and at least to this point in our history, we have not had to fear for our life because we did so. How many things can you list? As I look inwardly at my own blessings, I recognize the responsibility and opportunity to look outwardly, at the needs of those who may not be as blessed. Individually, and within different organizations we see an outpouring of generosity to the less fortunate, especially at this time of year. Paul encouraged the Ephesians, to work so they would be able to help those in need (4:28). Look around at those you can help. There may be someone much closer than you think. This time of year affords me the opportunity to look upwardly, to the one who makes all these things possible. “Every good gift and every perfect gift, is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variableness (change), neither shadow cast by turning.” (James 1:17) Paul wrote to the Colossians of their responsibility to be thankful, (3:15) and “Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” (3:17) To the Philippians he wrote a similar instruction: “In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God.” (4:6) Our thanksgiving needs to be a daily matter.

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

Dems introduce impeachment articles against president

BY KEVIN FREKING Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A half-dozen Democrats on Wednesday introduced articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, accusing him of obstruction of justice and other offenses, in a long-shot effort that stands little chance in the Republican-led House.

Indeed, the large majority of Democrats seem intent on having nothing to do with the effort either as lawmakers await the results of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into ties between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Democratic leaders have argued that the impeachment campaign riles up Trump’s GOP base, a critical bloc in next year’s midterm elections.

The five articles accused the president of obstruction of justice related to the FBI investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, undermining the independence of the federal judiciary and other offenses.

“We have taken this action because of great concerns for the country and our Constitution and our national security and our democracy,” Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., said at a news conference

to announce the effort.

Cohen said he understands that Republicans hold the majority in the House and are unlikely to allow hearings on the impeachment articles.

He said the group will hold occasional briefings to explain each of the five articles of impeachment and where they believe Trump ran afoul of the law or committed misdeeds that warrant impeachment.

The obstruction of justice allegation stems from Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey, which the lawmakers say was designed to delay and impede an investigation.

Associated Press

HOUSTON — Allegations that former President George H.W. Bush inappropriately touched seven women involve potential crimes punishable by fines or jail time, if they had been prosecuted.

All but one of the cases is ineligible under state laws that limit when a prosecution can begin after an alleged crime, and several lawyers interviewed said that it would be difficult to win a conviction against Bush, who has vascular parkinsonism, a rare syndrome that mimics Parkinson’s disease.

“You’re still going to be facing prosecuting a 93-year-old man in a wheelchair that’s a former president,” said Toby Shook, a lawyer who previously served as a prosecutor in Dallas. “I doubt if you could ever find a jury that would ever want to convict him.”

There’s no indication prosecutors are planning to pursue a case against Bush. Jordana Grolnick, an actress who alleged that Bush groped her behind last year as his wife, Barbara, stood nearby, told The Associated Press that she has no plans to report the 41st president to authorities. That appears to be the only incident that hasn’t reached the local statute of limitations on how long a crime can be prosecuted after it occurs.

The incidents occurred in three states over a decade. In all of the cases, the women say Bush

touched their buttocks as they stood next to him to take photos. All three states have laws against touching someone without their consent.

The women’s stories broadly follow the same outline: Bush patted them below the waist as they stood next to him to take photos, sometimes with a joke about his favorite magician or writer being named “David Cop-aFeel.”

Bush has issued repeated apologies through a spokesman “to anyone he has offended.” The spokesman, Jim McGrath, said in a statement last month that Bush has used a wheelchair for roughly five years, and that “his arm falls on the lower waist of people with whom he takes pictures.” In a statement Monday, McGrath said, “George Bush simply does not have it in his heart to knowingly cause anyone distress, and he again apologizes to anyone he offended during a photo op.”

McGrath did not respond to a request for additional comment Tuesday.

Actress Heather Lind was the first to accuse Bush of groping her, saying in an Oct. 24 Instagram post that Bush “touched me from behind” and told “a dirty joke” while they posed for a photo at a Houston screening of the AMC television series “Turn.”

Six more women have come forward since then, including Roslyn Corrigan, who told Time magazine

Amount of food stamps per month

APPLICATION DEADLINE IS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2017 AT 4 P.M.

Monday that Bush groped her as they took a photo in 2003, when Corrigan was 16, during an event in The Woodlands, a Houston suburb. Broadway actress Megan Elizabeth Lewis also told NJ.com that Bush groped her at the performance of a musical in Houston in 2009.

The AP generally does not identify victims of sexual assault without their consent, but is using the names of women who have spoken publicly on social media or in news reports.

Four of the incidents are reported to have occurred in Texas. Shook said that under Texas law, touching someone’s buttocks over the person’s clothing would most likely be grounds for a misdemeanor assault charge, with only a $500 fine and no jail time.

In Maine, where Bush is accused of grabbing two women, those allegations could give rise to a charge of assault or unlawful sexual touching, punishable by up to a year in jail, said Walt McKee, a defense attorney in Augusta, Maine.

And in Pennsylvania, where a retired newspaper journalist has accused Bush of touching her during an event in Erie, the state’s law against indecent assault could apply, said Richard Settgast, an adjunct law professor at Penn State University.

A key question in any prosecution, the lawyers said, would be whether the suspect touched the victim for sexual gratification or by accident.

‘God is so good,’ says man freed after 45 years in prison

BY STACEY PLAISANCE Associated Press

BATON ROUGE, La. — A 65-year-old man who was arrested at 19 and sentenced to life without parole walked out of prison on Wednesday, saying “God is so good” after his rape conviction was overturned by a judge.

Authorities withheld evidence that could have exonerated Wilbert Jones decades ago and their case against him was “weak at best,” State District Judge Richard Anderson said.

“Freedom. After more than 45 years and ten months. That’s going through my mind,” Jones said as he hugged his brother, Plem Jones, and other relatives outside the gates of the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.

Jones also thanked his legal team at the Innocence Project New Orleans, saying “without them, this wouldn’t be possible.”

Doing all that time was “very difficult,” Jones said, but he told reporters he holds no resentment.

“I forgave. I forgive,” Jones said. “I didn’t have control of it. Why should I worry about it? I’m in charge of myself.”

Attorney Emily Maw praised “the extraordinary strength” of a man “who has spent over 16,000 days in prison for something he didn’t do,”

and would nevertheless “come out with a faith in God and in humanity.”

Prosecutors said they do not intend to retry Jones, but they also said they would ask the Louisiana Supreme Court to review last month’s decision by the judge. Court spokesman Robert Gunn said Wednesday morning that no such request had been filed. Jones has yet to be cleared; the judge set his bail at $2,000.

Maw told The Associated Press that it would be “legally incorrect and morally problematic” if the East Baton Rouge District Attorney’s Office insists on trying to uphold the conviction, because by doing so, it would be “saying that when Wilbert Jones was arrested in 1972 as a young, 19-yearold poor black man, he did not deserve the rights that people deserve today.”

The district attorney’s office did not immediately respond to the AP’s request for comment.

Jones was arrested on suspicion of abducting a nurse at gunpoint from a Baton Rouge hospital’s parking lot and raping her behind a building on the night of Oct. 2, 1971. He was convicted of aggravated rape at a 1974 retrial that “rested entirely” on the nurse’s testimony and her “questionable identi-

fication” of Jones as her assailant, the judge said.

The nurse, who died in 2008, picked Jones out of a police lineup more than three months after the rape, but she also told police that the man who raped her was taller and had a “much rougher” voice than Jones had.

Jones’ lawyers claim the nurse’s description matches a man who was arrested but never charged in the rape of a woman abducted from the parking lot of another Baton Rouge hospital, just 27 days after the nurse’s attack. The same man also was arrested on suspicion of raping yet another woman in 1973, but was only charged and convicted of armed robbery in that case.

Anderson said the evidence shows police knew of the similarities between that man and the nurse’s description of her attacker.

“Nevertheless, the state failed to provide this information to the defense,” the judge wrote.

Jones’ attorneys also said that a prosecutor who secured his conviction had a track record of withholding evidence favorable to defendants.

A 1974 opinion by a state Supreme Court justice said the prosecutor was responsible for 11 reversed convictions the preceding year — “an incredible statistic for a single prosecutor.”

Prosecutors denied that authorities withheld any relevant evidence about other Baton Rouge rapists.

“The state was not obligated to document for the defense every rape or abduction that occurred in Baton Rouge from 1971 to 1974,” prosecutors wrote in February.

Jones’ attorneys described him as a “highly trusted prisoner and a frail, aging man” who poses no danger to the community.

Man who hates his job drags girlfriend down with griping

D E A R ABBY: I have been dating my boyfriend for three years.

We have lived togethAbigail er for the last Van Buren two.

We have a great life Dear Abby t o g e t h e r, but there is a problem I don’t know how to solve. “Jeremy” hates his job.

We met in the education department of our college, and after graduation, we both took jobs in the public school system.

I enjoy my career, but he loathes his.

He complains constantly without seeming to take action on the issue.

I know he’s miserable, but he hasn’t looked for other jobs or enrolled in a new school program.

I have bad days, too, but I’ve reached the end of listening to the constant griping. I am usually a positive person, but he is dragging my mood down because of this.

He says I need to guide him and give him some direction, but I don’t know what to say.

I don’t think it’s my responsibility to tell another adult what he

should or shouldn’t do with his life.

I don’t mind helping him talk through his choices, but he wants more from me.

This is the man I want to marry. Is there a way to get past this issue and make it work? — UNCERTAIN AND LOST DEAR UNCERTAIN: Until your boyfriend has settled this uncertainty about his work life, any discussion about marriage should be put on hold.

I agree you are not qualified to give him career advice.

However, you might ask him to tell you what exactly it is that he hates about his job, and what he would rather be doing.

His answers may give both of you insight into what he may be better suited for emotionally, and stimulate him to do something positive about his future.

Once he has more clarity, there may be places he can go for career counseling that can help him decide what his next steps should be.

DEAR ABBY: We bought our first home seven months ago.

We love it, except for one major issue. Our neighbor, who’s the same age as I am, is the biggest hypochondriac and laziest person I’ve ever seen.

She was training to be a police officer, but she had a headache

every day, so she got let go last year.

Ever since then we have been supporting her (food, Wi-Fi, OTC meds, feminine products).

I finally cut her off for about a week until she Facebookmessaged me saying she was starving and hadn’t eaten for two days, so I gave in.

I gave her a job last week, and she didn’t show up the first day.

What should I do?

It’s causing arguments between my husband and me. I hate to think she’s hungry. — TROUBLED IN THE SOUTH DEAR TROUBLED: You are a kindhearted person, but you are being taken advantage of.

If your neighbor has family that can be located, they should be notified that she’s unable to care for herself.

If no relative is willing to take responsibility for her, contact social services or direct the woman to the nearest food bank or soup kitchen.

I suspect her problems are more extensive than headaches and procrastination.

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).

You sense how your loved ones are feeling and cater to that emotional state. For people who have you in their lives, that pretty much comes with the package. Not everyone you know will be so emotionally intelligent today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

It’s only natural to want to be near the person who makes you feel good about yourself.

Those who make it all about themselves, on the other hand, are repellent to you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The situation may seem to call for a reaction, but there’s a huge benefit to being slow to react, if any reaction is necessary at all.

This is one of those times when you might do nothing at all and the problem solves itself.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

If anyone can de-escalate the tension and purge the atmosphere of negative vibes, it’s you. Mostly this is done by changing the subject. It also doesn’t hurt that you refuse to buy into other people’s realities.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Poke into your fears. Whatever you do to face them, deal with them or even avoid them — it will make your life better. That’s as long as you’re not ignoring fear (which is a strategy that sometimes works, but not today).

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

This is not a good day to share the details of a relationship, especially facts that could cast a bad light. You may come to forgive some transgressions that others won’t, and in that case you’ll be glad you kept them to yourself.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Just because something is socially acceptable, that doesn’t make it right. You’ll notice an injustice and work to make things better, whether or not it’s the popular choice.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

If you want to say no, just say it and be quick about it and all will be well. Saying maybe (when you mean no) will hang both you and the other person in an uncomfortable limbo.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). There’s far too much work to get it all done in a day, but if you start early you’ll have a fighting chance. The morning hours show you energetic, and with a determined gleam in your eye.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Tidiness will lead to happiness. The success key today could be as simple as cleaning up some part of your life that’s gotten out of hand. This kind of effort may very well change everything.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Although you’re very likely to take other people’s needs and wants into consideration before you make your move, you are also aware that ultimately they are not the ones who have to live with the consequences.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You’re confident in your knowledge, yet you’re also well aware that there are many other truths and ways. Your open mind will serve you well and net you more friends and supporters than one with a more rigid mindset.

Federal budget deficits creeping up

Economists are predicting the federal government is headed back to budget deficits topping $1 trillion annually, levels not seen since the 2008 financial crisis and the Great Recession.

Annual deficits topped $1 trillion for four years from 2009 through 2012 but then improved, falling as low as $438.7 billion in 2015.

Deficits have risen the last two years, hitting $666 billion for the just-ended 2017 budget year. The Congressional Budget Office in June estimated the deficit in the current 2018 budget year would decline to $563 billion.

But that did not take into account the impact of the Trump administration’s tax plan and hurricane disaster relief.

Economists at JPMorgan Chase are estimating that the deficit this year will hit $675 billion, with disaster spending adding $30 billion to the deficit and the initial impact of the tax cuts adding perhaps another $63 billion. For 2019, JPMorgan estimates the deficit will rise closer to $1 trillion, hitting $909 billion.

The CBO’s June estimate does not have the deficit topping $1 trillion until 2022.

No consequences for bad behavior WIZARD OF ID

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am inclined to ask for an outside opinion after spending time with my grandkids at their home last night and witnessing a lot of violent behavior with which they got away. It was an emotional roller coaster. I saw the eldest sibling behaving roughly with his younger siblings. The parents threatened to take away a favorite toy as punishment but then never followed through, nor did they use timeout, which I still think is smart for calming down.

As a grandparent, I was glad to see the sisters, ages 3 and 4, learning to fight back against their elder brother, who is 7, when he was rough with them.

But he’s still stronger, and there was still a lot of crying. Meanwhile, the 1-yearold boy is watching it all.

My daughter-in-law is a stay-at-home mom. My son participates with the discipline, but he mostly yells at them. The kids laugh it off, and the eldest boy even hits the parents or pounces on them when he feels like it. And again, nothing is done to punish him. The kids are simply told to hug and say they’re sorry. This has been going on for at least three years.

When I spend time with the kids individually, they are sweet and very smart.

I’m sure they like the calm visit with me. What will happen with them in the

Dear Annie future? — Worried Grandma Dear Worried Grandma: You are correct to be concerned. Empty threats help no one. They instill temporary fear in children that they will get something taken away, and when there is no follow-through on the threats, it teaches the children that your word is not worth paying attention to. In the end, they will continue not to listen to or respect your son and daughter-in-law. They need firm guidelines about not hitting, strict enforcement and lots of love.

Dear Annie: I am a veterinarian, and I have read your column since its inception. I usually agree with your advice. However, I must object to the advice you gave to the owners of the cat who got a Great Pyrenees. They believe that the dog is demanding an inordinate amount of their attention, possibly out of jealousy. Though your reply was well-intended, your recommendations may not have been helpful and could even be dangerous. Dogs and cats

have their own methods of communication, with facial expressions and body language that most people aren’t trained or attuned enough to understand. They have evolved to respond to these cues in certain ways. Trying to project human emotions, motivations or patterns of behavior onto dogs or cats is largely unsuccessful and can sometimes create even more unwanted behavior.

This couple would benefit from having a professional dog trainer come to their house, observe the social hierarchy that exists and counsel them on the best way to safely modify this dog’s behavior. Thank you for your ongoing efforts to help people with their issues. I hope this information is beneficial. — Michigan Veterinarian Dear Michigan Veterinarian: Thank you for your expertise. You make a great point about the potential pitfalls of projecting human emotion onto animal behavior. I’ve forwarded your letter to the owner of the Great Pyrenees, and I’m printing it here for the benefit of all readers trying to keep the peace among animals in their homes.

Can Warriors do it again?

Corinth running back Zack Patterson (1), shown here last week looking for yards against Pontotoc, and the Warriors will travel to Macon on Friday for an MHSAA 4A quarterfinal playoff contest against heavily favored Noxubee County. Corinth is 7-5 while the Tigers come in at 8-4 and riding a six-game winning streak. The Tribe has won six of eight since beginning the season 1-3. Another upset win would place CHS in the North Half finals for the first time since 2007, just one game shy of the state championship round.

Trio gives MSU Top 15 signing class Mississippi State Sports Information

STARKVILLE — Then there were three.

Tuesday night prior to his game with Starkville High School, Columbus four-star standout Robert Woodard announced he has signed with Mississippi State to continue his basketball career.

The state’s top player and Gatorade Player of the Year then promptly responded with 14 points, 12 rebounds, seven blocked shots and four steals in the Falcons’ comefrom-behind 64-62 win.

He joins Reggie Perry (5-star) and DJ Stewart (4star) in MSU’s stellar signing class that now has a No. 12 composite national ranking by 247Sports, No. 3 in the SEC. “I just felt like it was the best situation,” said the 6-foot-6 small forward, whose dad, Robert, played at MSU from 1987-90. “Mississippi State has some great coaches, as well as a great team with a lot of potential.

I felt like it was either now or never. They have a team that is more like a brotherhood as well as a team.”

“We are very elated and so excited to have Robert come to Mississippi State,” MSU coach Ben Howland said.

“He is everything you want out of player. He has the skill level, is a great competitor and plays with great toughness. On top of that, he’s an incredible young man who is involved in choir and is a really good Christian young man. Plus, he comes from a wonder family. It is definite-

Stewart, a native of Grace, has been unstoppable in his highly-touted career at Riverside.

Tabbed as the No. 2 prospect in Mississippi, he averaged 18.9 points and 9.7 rebounds as a junior and is listed as the 31st best small forward in the country.

“When you go somewhere, you just get that feeling,” the 6-6, 196-pound Stewart said. “You get that vibe that you belong there, and that’s the feeling I got when I went to Mississippi State and when I was around the players and the coaches.”

Stewart will bring with him a diverse skill set with the ability to defend at either the point, two-guard or small forward position. He can also shoot from the perimeter and has shown the propensity to play both the two and the three.

“I’m extremely thrilled about DJ,” Howland said.

“He’s a phenomenal athlete who is also a very good shooter. Until this year, he was a two-sport player. He’s very gifted, and he’s a going to be an outstanding defensive player for us. He’s also a fine young man who comes from a great family. I’m really excited about his future.”

MSU hosting Throwback to the Titans face 7-2 Steelers tonight ’70s tonight against Georgia State Associated Press

Mississippi State Sports Information

STARKVILLE — Throwback Thursday comes to Humphrey Coliseum as the fourth-ranked Mississippi State women’s basketball team goes back to the 1970s for a contest against Georgia State.

Tipoff for the ’70s Night contest is set for 7 p.m., and the game will be streamed live online on SEC Network+. The radio call can be heard in the Starkville area on WLZA-FM 96.1 and www.hailstate.com/plus.

Tickets for all MSU wom-

en’s basketball home games cost $5 for adults and $3 for youth age 18 and under.

Children age 12 and under can get free admission to every women’s game by joining Bully’s Kids Club at www.bullyskidsclub.com.

Mississippi State returns to action for the first time since a season-opening 6853 win against ACC member Virginia last Friday.

The Bulldogs were paced

by Victoria Vivians, who notched a game-high 22 points to go with seven rebounds. Vivians sparked MSU with 16 first-half

points, while fellow senior Roshunda Johnson stepped up to knock down 12 of her 18 points in the second half.

Vic Schaefer’s squad also got a stellar debut from freshman Chloe Bibby, who added 13 points.

MSU will be Georgia State’s second-straight SEC foe to face. The Lady Panthers opened the year with an 82-66 setback at Florida. GSU was paced by 20 points from reigning Sun Belt Freshman of the Year Jada Lewis. Shay Fluker added 15, while Madison Newby tallied 11.

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have a commanding lead in the AFC North and are in a twoway race with New England for homefield advantage throughout the AFC playoffs as Thanksgiving looms, exactly where they expected to be all along.

It just doesn’t necessarily feel like it.

While the Steelers (72) are hardly apologizing for their best start in head coach Mike Tomlin’s decade-long tenure, they’d love a little bit of style to go with all that substance.

Narrow escapes such as last week’s 20-17 victory

over struggling Indianapolis are starting to get a little old.

The $92 million offense that includes the highestpaid (and most productive) wide receiver and running back in the NFL is averaging just 20 points a week.

The Steelers are one of just five teams that haven’t reached the 30-point plateau all season.

“We’re still saying we have to get better but eventually we’ve got to do it,” star wideout Antonio Brown said.

Like Pittsburgh, surprising Tennessee (6-3) is looking to send a message that their progress in coach

Mike Mularkey’s second season isn’t a mirage.

The Titans bring a fourgame winning streak into Thursday night’s meeting in Pittsburgh, though the four victories are against teams that are a combined 10-27.

“I think it’s going to be a big measuring stick for our team to see where we’re at,” Tennessee tight end Delanie Walker said.

Despite the short week, the two sides are hardly strangers. Mularkey and five other members of the Titans staff either played or coached for Pittsburgh — or in the case of Mularkey, did both.

Gadgets, comfort, luggage: Gift guide for travelers

BY BETH J. HARPAZ AP Travel Editor

NEW YORK — What’s in your bag when you take a trip? What gadgets, tools and comfort items are essential?

The Associated Press crowdsourced that question on a Facebook thread as fodder for a holiday gift guide for travelers. We heard from folks around the world, from millennials to retirees, from frequent-flying business travelers to once-in-awhile vacationers. Here are their recommendations, plus a few of our favorites.

Gadgets • A universal travel adapter that converts electric current around the world. The travel store Flight 001 has a “5-in-1” color-coded adapter, $35.

• Portable chargers to keep devices running on the road. Anker’s PowerCore 26800, $48, can charge an iPhone more than six times. For hikers and beach bums, Anker’s PowerPort Solar Lite, $51, was deemed the best

solar charger by The New York Times’ Wirecutter product-testing company.

• The Tile, $35, to keep track of belongings. Attach the Tile to an object like keys or bags, or tuck it inside a passport case or wallet, and you can locate the item with Bluetooth technology. For outdoor gear, try Tile Sport.

• Tiny Bluetooth speakers, like the $28 Oontz , to fill a hotel room or vacation rental with music.

• Power strip or cube tap (a cube-shaped adapter with multiple outlets) to charge multiple devices in hotel rooms and airports.

• Headlamp for hiking, reading and crafting. Or the mini Lumio lamp and battery pack, which opens and closes like a book, $150.

Packing and luggage • Compression storage bags so packed clothes take up less room. No vacuum needed for Roomier Life Roll-Up Space Saver Bags, $16 on Ama-

zon: The air is expelled through an opening when they’re rolled up.

• Packing cubes and ultralight nylon packing bags for organizing.

Flight 001’s Spacepak bags, $42 and up, have dual compartments to separate dirty and clean clothes, and also have air vents for compression.

• Hand-held scale for weighing bags.

• Colorful luggage tags.

• Luggage. For inexpensive and serviceable, Target and Costco; sturdy and sensible, L.L. Bean; stylish, upscale and durable, Tumi. For organized hipsters, the $220 Nomatic backpack/ duffel bag. For day bags, Bagallini, LeSportsac and REI’s $33 compressible Sea To Summit Ultra-Sil Daypack. For high-tech, Bluesmart smart luggage includes a built-in weight scale, a GPS tracking device, a battery to charge a phone and laptop, and autolock activated by cellphone.

Sleep • Travel pillow. The new

trtl travel pillow looks like a neck wrap rather than the traditional U-shape.

It supports the head and neck with a system of ribs inside a soft fleece, $30.

• Ear plugs and contoured sleep masks that don’t crush eyelids and lashes.

• Bose noise-canceling headphones: expensive at around $350, but the brand of choice for frequent flyers.

• White noise machines like LectroFan, $35.

Comfort, hygiene, beauty and fitness • Travel-size toiletries: toothpaste, sunscreen, deodorant, mouthwash, lotion, antibacterial wipes, hand sanitizer, lip balm, perfume, tissues.

Gift a Birchbox subscription for $10 a month and the recipient will get five samples of personal care and beauty products per delivery for hair, skin and style, all in TSA-compliant sizes for carry-on liquids and gels not exceeding 3.4 ounces.

• Toiletry bag that can be hung up upon arrival.

• Tennis ball-size T Spheres, aromatherapymassage balls, can be heated or frozen, $35.

• Soaragami armrest divider, $30. Have fun explaining it to the stranger on the plane sitting next to you in coach.

• Travel yoga mats.

• Inflatable Ten Toes stand-up paddleboard, $500 and up.

• Bike helmets that fold flat. Morpher helmets are certified safe in the United States and Canada by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, $149.

Practical and fun • To make a hotel room or vacation rental homey, a flat-folding mesh laundry hamper; plastic, foldout flower vase and 2-cup travel kettle for boiling water.

• For cocktails on the road, Flight 001 sells a $65 mini-bar kit with tiny glass bottles, metal flasks, stir spoon, funnel and recipe booklet. The vials are sized to be TSA-compliant, but remember that it’s not legal to drink your own booze on an airplane.

• Rain ponchos that fold into tiny flat squares.

• Disposable underwear.

• Pashmina or cotton print scarf, for warmth, modesty or even as a picnic or beach blanket.

Gift cards etc.

• Surprise someone in a destination with a bottle of Champagne or flowers in their room, helicopter tour, dinner cruise, show tickets or attractions pass.

• Give air travel using the new Skyhour website or app. One Skyhour costs $60 and is worth an hour of flight time.

Recipients can search for and book flights, just like they would on any booking site. More than 350 airlines participate.

• For Disney fans, the Gift of Disney Vacations program can pay for an experience, ticket or entire vacation at a Disney park.

• Kindle or iTunes gift card.

• Priority Pass membership for airport lounges.

Retirement age keeps changing The original retirement age for full Social Security benefits was set at age 65 in 1935.

Why age 65?

First, life expectancy in 1935 was at or about age 61, therefore, the odds of collecting Social Security was slim to none.

Secondly, Germany had the first Social Security system and that was the age they had chosen — so maybe the United States just wasn’t original. Thirdly, the Social Security historian’s office stated that since railroad pensions and other state systems’ used age 65, it was a practical age choice.

Whatever the reason, 65 remained the Full Retirement Age until 1983 w h e n t h e r e w e r e amendments to the Social Security Roy and Act. The Diane e x p l a Thompson n a t i o n s for the Columnists c h a n g e Pillars, LLC were that people were living longer and that by raising the full retirement age saved the SSA money, putting the program on a sounder financial footing.

The Social Security office is there to take your order based on your benefit amount.

Their job is not to look at your benefits and give you advice about the best way to file.

Then, in 1956, age 62 was introduced as the early retirement age for women and the same was extended to men in 1961. This is retained in the present law. However, benefits are cut for taking early.

We still see people filing at age 62 each day — because they are eligible they

take the benefit. By doing this, they usually do not realize the consequences — reducing their benefit from 25-30 percent, eliminating claiming strategies that improve their income stream, reducing the Survivor Benefit, having to deal with Earnings Limitations if still working — to name just a few.

These are serious consequences that can in most cases be eliminated with just a little planning and flexibility.

The Social Security office is there to take your order based on your benefit amount. Their job is not to look at your benefits and give you advice about the best way to file.

With very few exceptions, people do not realize that the Social Security office does not know if you are married, single, divorced, if your ex-spouse was drawing disability, if you have two children under the age of 18, if you also worked for the railroad and have

a different set of rules to follow, if you had another job that did not require you to pay SS taxes, if you are entitled to a spousal boost or claiming strategy, and the list goes on.

You need to have all these questions answered and your options calculated before going to file.

‘Mudbound’ a moving, literary epic of family, race

BY SANDY COHEN

Rees’ telling is literary and cinematic, striking with both words and images. Her script with Virgil Williams captures Jordan’s writing style and the characters’ distinct voices as they alternately narrate the story.

AP Entertainment Writer

Perhaps it’s a sign of the times that after seeing an epic story as poetically told as Dee Rees’ “Mudbound,” feelings of awe and admiration are quickly replaced with frustration that Hollywood hasn’t traditionally embraced the artistic visions of people who aren’t white and male. Maybe it’s because feelings are so raw in this postWeinstein era, where the obstacles women face on their way to success are just beginning to be publicly understood.

“Mudbound” is beautiful, complex and flawless, regardless of who made it. That it happens to come from a queer black woman is both significant and irrelevant: Brilliance is brilliance, no matter its packaging.

But given Hollywood’s exclusive (and potentially abusive) power structure, some brilliance must fight harder than others to be heard, and we may never know what less-hardy voices have been silenced through the years by harassment and discrimination.

Themes of prejudice and discrimination are also central to

the story of “Mudbound,” based on the award-winning 2008 novel by Hillary Jordan. Set in the American South in the early 1940s, it’s both a tale of two families, one black and one white, and a portrait of an era beset by racism and rigid social rules.

Rees’ telling is literary and cinematic, striking with both words and images. Her script with Virgil Williams captures Jordan’s writing style and the characters’ distinct voices as they alternately narrate the story. And the stunning photography by Rachel Morrison — leafy woods, light-dappled buildings, watercolor sunsets across enormous skies — creates a beautifully bucolic setting for the ugly racism that brings life-altering pain to both families.

Like a novel, the story gradually then completely absorbs

as the characters reveal themselves. Though there are many, each is wholly drawn. The title refers to the landscape: a central character of soppy farmland that leaves everyone covered in dirt.

The drama begins when Henry McAllan (Jason Clarke) moves his family from Memphis to Mississippi to make his farming dreams come true.

The Jacksons are their neighbors, sharecroppers who’ve tended the land for generations and dream of owning a piece.

Though ostensibly equals, social norms clearly dictate the Jacksons’ deference to the McAllans. When Henry needs help from Hap Jackson (Rob Morgan, speaking volumes with his eyes), he orders more than asks. But Henry’s father, Pappy (Jonathan Banks), is far worse: he’s openly hateful, and later

shown to be a devoted member of the Ku Klux Klan.

The Jacksons and the McAllans share more than land. The family matriarchs, Laura McAllan and Florence Jackson (Carey Mulligan and Mary J. Blige, both superb), develop a bond resembling friendship that their husbands don’t fully understand. And as World War II draws U.S. participation, each family sends one of their own off to war.

Henry’s younger brother, Jamie (Garrett Hedlund), and the Jacksons’ eldest son, Ronsel (Jason Mitchell), are forever changed by their time overseas.

They form an unlikely friendship when they return, sharing the psychological scars of battle and the challenges of their newly expanded worldviews.

But such a friendship between white and black men is

forbidden in the segregated South, and both pay dearly for it.

With hate remaining a tenet of American life, the racism depicted in “Mudbound” is like a distant and present memory.

Rees doesn’t shy away from showing the stark and subtle effects of racial hate. It’s just as painful to see Ronsel, in his military uniform decorated with medals, quietly take a seat in the “colored” section of the bus as it is to see him confronted by racists in town.

In her dozen years behind the camera, Rees has told stories about people whose lives might have remained unseen had she not brought them to the screen. In a country and world as diverse as ours, there are countless experiences and perspectives to be shared, and not all of them belong to white men.

“Mudbound,” a Netflix release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for “some disturbing violence, brief language and nudity.”

Running time: 134 minutes. Four stars out of four.

Don’t forget to schedule some time — for yourself

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON

Always putting others before yourself is just as reckless as it is commendable in some cases because it often leads to overexertion.

Columnist

Anyone who has ever traveled via airplane has likely heard the same pre-flight safety spiel over and over.

If the cabin loses air pressure, “Put your own oxygen mask on first, then assist others.”

The idea being that if you lose consciousness … or worse, then you’re no good to anyone else anyway.

This advice is just as true on the ground as it is in the air.

Always putting others before yourself is just as reckless as it is commendable in some cases because it often leads to overexertion.

Thinking of family, friends, co-workers and even acquaintance’s needs before my own has always been as automatic

to me as breathing and while it is still my default setting, I have learned to reserve a bit of that energy for myself.

Overscheduling, rushing and stressing won’t do you any favors and as I have often discovered, keeping yourself on call 24/7 only results in your own unhappiness.

Don’t get me wrong, it is truly rewarding to help those in need of assistance or a solid shoulder to lean on, but just be sure you

aren’t devoting so much time in service of others that you forget you also need a little T.L.C. As an adolescent, I always felt I needed to be the life-of-the-party, center-of-the-crowd, but the growing years have taught me to appreciate my own company.

I still enjoy hanging out with friends and attending social gatherings, but curling up with a good book and a steaming cup of chamomile tea has become just as important to me.

I now value my “me” time whether it is a solo yoga session or a leisurely stroll outdoors and see it as a way to unwind, rejuvenate and reset.

It quiets my mind, calms my inner storm and forces me to let go of all the tensions and other “baggage” that has plagued me throughout the week.

A friend once asked me, “Don’t you ever get lonely being by yourself? I get lonesome and bored being left to my own devices for even a few minutes and you actually want to be alone at times.”

Though she couldn’t relate having never sought out solitude her entire life, my answer was enough to at least give her pause.

“You do know you can be among a crowd and still feel completely alone, right?” She

Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!

didn’t. “While I would love to be continuously on the go, I also enjoy making my own entertainment and can actually be more content in doing so than if I were surrounded by people.”

My sentiments were lost on her, but I hope dear readers, that you will take them to heart.

Lend a helping hand whenever possible (In fact, I highly recommend it), but while you’re at it, pencil yourself in as well.

Whether it’s a rare mental health day, a few hours of privacy or even just a few moments solace – you deserve it.

STAT OF THE WEEK

14-24 Record in conference play for Tennessee coach Butch Jones, who was fired Sunday after the Volunteers sank to 4-6. It was a continuation of a trend for the Vols, who are 26-52 (.333) in the SEC since 2008.

ATHENS IN RUINS?

BULLDOGS MUST PUT UGLY AUBURN LOSS BEHIND THEM, FOCUS ON ’CATS KEYS FOR KENTUCKY Long possessions.

Kentucky isn’t an offensive dynamo, and it’s not as if anyone other than Auburn has gotten much traction against Georgia, anyway.

But the Wildcats — with the help of 1,000-yard rusher Benny Snell — need to figure out a way to string together some first downs and keep their defense off the field. Shortening the game is a good strategy for Mark Stoops’ team.

Contain the run. If Kentucky is to pull an upset, it needs to play to its strengths to some extent. In this case, it means taming the capable Georgia rushing attack of Nick Chubb and Sony Michel. Kentucky is 19th in the country against the run (121.9 yards per

No hangover. If Georgia had an aura of invincibility — considering it hadn’t been seriously tested deep in a game since early September, it looked like it was a top-five team — it disappeared in last week’s blowout loss at Auburn.

But the Bulldogs still have a lot to play for. If they win out — against Kentucky, Georgia Tech and the SEC West winner — they’re going to the playoff.

Attack through the air. Gradually, Georgia has become more comfortable with letting freshman QB Jake Fromm become

PREDICTION Georgia 31-13. The Bulldogs have won seven in a row in the series, and there’s a good chance they’ll be out to atone for last week’s ugly showing on the Plains. Consider that a bit of bad timing for Kentucky, which has alternated wins and losses since the start of October and is heading to the postseason for the second year in a row. The Wildcats’ first eight-win season since 2007 is within reach; they’ll probably have to wait until next week to get it.

When: Noon EST Saturday Where: Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium, Fayetteville, Ark. TV: CBS Notes: Arkansas leads series 16-10-1 and won last year’s meeting 58-42 in Starkville.

Dan Mullen’s Bulldogs are coming off an Mullen excruciating close call against Alabama, and an emotionally spent team finds itself without a conference title to play for, a date with in-state rival Mississippi up next and a flailing opponent to face on the road.

When: 7 p.m. EST Saturday Where: Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Oxford, Miss.

TV: ESPN2 Notes: Texas A&M leads series 6-3. It’s possible to ask how things might have unfolded differently this season for the Aggies if QB Nick Starkel had remained Starkel healthy rather than suffering an ankle injury in the season opener at UCLA, but he’s back now and could provide a boost for Texas A&M in its final two league games. This is the Rebels’ home finale under interim coach Matt Luke.

When: 7 p.m. EST Saturday Where: Neyland Stadium, Knoxville, Tenn.

TV: ESPN Notes: Tennessee leads series 20-9-3. Tennessee athletic director John Currie finally put an end to the Butch Jones era on Sunday.

Last week’s ugly, lifeless Hoke loss to Missouri was a feeble showing, and it’s fair to wonder whether interim coach Brady Hoke can coax anything better out of the Vols in their final two games against Louisiana State and Vanderbilt.
