It takes a lot of volunteers to make this service project happen and they gather at the Corinth Middle School cafeteria.

The Easom Foundation will be hosting its last Community Fellowship Dinner of the year on Sunday, Dec. 3. It continues to be the centerpiece of fellowship for the community, plus raises funds for a worthwhile cause. Throw in the legendary Southern cooking of chef Ben Betts and it has a recipe for success. The Community Fellowship dinner offers both eating-in and carryout. All carryout meals are $10. For eating-in, meals are $10 for adults and $5 for children nine years old and under. The Community Fellowship Dinner supports “Hot Meals,� which is a program that provides meals for senior citizens with disabilities five days a week from 4 to 5:30 p.m., said chief operating officer Samuel Crayton. The menu for Dec. 3 will be fried chicken, dressing, chicken and dumplings, roast beef and gravy, boiled cabbage, roasted potatoes, green beans, chess squares and lemon cake, yeast rolls, and iced tea. “It’s an opportunity for members of different churches, different reli-

Volunteer Mason Tucker stacks Thanksgiving day to-go meals ready for delivery to local homes.

Program provides more than a meal BY L.A. STORY lastory@dailycorinthian.com

The room is fragrant with the aroma of a feast. It is the scent of special occasions — the kind that stirs fond memories. The area bustles with activity. There are adults — some are visiting with each other, but most are working to get the Thanksgiving Day meals prepared. Children are laughing and playing until they are herded toward duties of their own by a nearby adult. Cars outside are lined up far down the driveway ... and the people keep coming.

With the exception of this holiday scene taking place at a school, one would believe this is one very large family coming together to enjoy their Thanksgiving meal. This is partly true. It is one large family made up of families, church members and friends and they have come together for a Thanksgiving feast. The difference in this scene is that the feast they have gathered for is one they will be delivering to someone else. This year is the 29th year that First Presbyterian Church volunteers will prepare and assemble up to 1,000 meals to deliver

Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann tours Corinth schools BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

The Secretary of State toured Mississippi’s District of Innovation last week. Students and faculty welcomed Secretary Delbert Hosemann to Corinth Elementary School, where focus was placed on the state’s Bicentennial Birthday. Hosemann visited with two fourth grade classes before meeting with district administrators about the modified calendar, the Cambridge program and pre-K. “The innovative initiatives which have been implemented in Corinth schools were on display during my visit,â€? said Hoseman. “The district is definitely growing young people who will be civically-engaged leaders of our state one day. It was an honor to spend some time with them.â€? Hoseman spent time inside each classroom talking about the state’s history. He provided

classes with an online flipbook on the bicentennial. The book tells Mississippi’s 200-year history by region and teachers are encouraged to use the book to build spotlights on Mississippi history into the curriculum throughout the school year. “When I presented young students at Corinth Elementary with questions about the history of their state and asked them to dream about their state’s future, they were alert and inquisitive,� added the secretary. “Calling the administrators, teachers and students at the school ‘impressive’ does not do the school justice.� Hoseman also invited students to participate in a special art and essay contest within their region.

their region of the state. Essays (available for students in grades 7-12) will focus on “Moving Forward,” or the entrant’s view of the most important issues facing their region and their proposal

for how citizens and elected officials should address those issues. Entries will be accepted through Dec. 1. Winners will receive a $100 savings account, with another $100 awarded to winning students’ schools. Winners will also be rec-

ognized in a ceremony at the Mississippi State Capitol in February 2018. This week’s stop is part of Hoseman’s annual Promote the Vote tour of schools statewide. Promote the Vote is a little bit different this year because there is no state-

wide election and thus, no mock ballot. Instead, the program focuses on Mississippi’s Bicentennial Birthday. (For more information, visit sos.ms.gov/ptv. The online book is located at sos.ms.gov/bicentennial.)

Christmas plays they put on for children to participate in and a summer day-camp program. The Easom Foundation performs the Christmas plays at two or three nursing homes to share some holiday spirit. “The residents at the nursing homes really enjoy the plays,” said Paulette Justice, who helps organize the Christmas plays and summer day camp. “It’s really a good experience for the residents, but it’s an even better experience for the children to enjoy giving back to the community,” she said. “It’s a token of giving for the young people.” The Easom Foundation is still looking for children to participate and adult volunteers to help. This year the theme for their Christmas plays will be “Christmas Around the World.” In the plays, the children will learn about the different traditions that people have for Christmas around the world and link it to their own in America, said Justice. “We want to involve the community in all of our efforts,” she said. “We always need children and volunteers who feel like they can help. It would be greatly, greatly appreciated.” The Easom Community Center is the former Easom High School and South Corinth School located behind Taco Bell off Cass Street.

Every month about 120 people -- both black and white -come to this fellowship dinner whether they decide to eat-in or carryout, he said. “Close to 50 percent of our dining guests are from the white community,” Crayton added. Betts continues to cook for the dinner. “A lot of the people who come from the majority of the community know Ben and know his cooking. And a lot of people come because of that,” Crayton said. “On a scale from 1 to 10, I would say it’s about a 10.” “He knows how to prepare and plan for a large group,” Crayton said. “He knows how to maneuver around a kitchen.” “I enjoy Ben Betts’ delicious food and I enjoy the company of all the people -- both of old friends and making new friends,” said Sonny Boatman, who attends the dinner regularly. “It’s just a wonderful way to spend a Sunday lunch,” Boatman added. “I just really enjoy it a lot.” Betts along with the rest of the Easom Foundation recognize that there are some who may have diabetes in the community. “We try to make sure we have enough vegetables there for them to choose from as compared to starchy food,” Crayton said. The dinner also supports other events the Easom Foundation hosts such as the

Today in History Today is Friday, Nov. 24, the 328th day of 2017. There are 37 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History On Nov. 24, 1917, nine members of the Milwaukee police department and two civilians were killed when a bomb exploded inside a police station. (The suspicious-looking package was brought to the station by a local resident after it was discovered outside a church; anarchists were suspected, but the culprits were never caught.)

On this date In 1784, Zachary Taylor, the 12th president of the United States, was born in Orange County, Virginia. In 1859, British naturalist Charles Darwin published “On the Origin of Species,” which explained his theory of evolution by means of natural selection. In 1939, British Overseas Airways Corp. (BOAC) was formally established. In 1944, during World War II, U.S. bombers based on Saipan attacked Tokyo in the first raid against the Japanese capital by land-based planes. In 1947, a group of writers, producers and directors that became known as the “Hollywood Ten” was cited for contempt of Congress for refusing to answer questions about alleged Communist influence in the movie industry. John Steinbeck’s novel “The Pearl” was first published. In 1957, Mexican muralist Diego Rivera,

In 1969, Apollo 12 splashed down safely in the Pacific. In 1971, a hijacker calling himself “Dan Cooper” (but who became popularly known as “D.B. Cooper”) parachuted from a Northwest Orient Airlines 727 over the Pacific Northwest after receiving $200,000 dollars in ransom; his fate remains unknown. In 1985, the hijacking of an Egyptair jetliner parked on the ground in Malta ended violently as Egyptian commandos stormed the plane. Fifty-eight people died in the raid, in addition to two others killed by the hijackers. In 1991, rock singer Freddie Mercury died in London at age 45 of AIDS-related pneumonia. In 1992, a China Southern Airlines Boeing 737 crashed in southern China, killing all 141 people on board. Ten years ago: A fast-moving wildfire pushed by Santa Ana winds raced through the canyons and mountains of Malibu, California, for the second time in little more than a month, destroying some 50 homes. In Australia’s election, conservative Prime Minister John Howard suffered a major defeat at the hands of Labor Party head Kevin Rudd.

Narcotics arrest made at Booneville motel

BMC presents Festival of Lessons and Carols

BOONEVILLE — An investigation by narcotics officers resulted in the felony arrest of a Booneville resident at a local motel. The Banner-Independent reports Tiffany D. Copeland, 39, of 114A Anderson St., Booneville, was arrested on a charge of possession of cocaine, said Booneville Police Chief Michael Ramey. The arrest occurred around 2 a.m. Thursday of last week when a search warrant was executed in one of the rooms at Best Inn Motel on North Second Street. Booneville Police, with assistance from North Mississippi Narcotics Agents and Prentiss County Sheriff’s Department, spent numerous hours in surveillance which was the probable cause for the search warrant being executed there, said Booneville Chief of Police Michael Ramey. Her bond was set at $5,000.

BLUE MOUNTAIN – Sounds of the Christmas season will come alive during the annual Blue Mountain College Festival of Lessons and Carols at 7 p.m., Friday, Dec. 1 in BMC’s Modena Berry Lowrey Auditorium. The program will feature carols and anthems by the Blue Mountain College Chorale, the College’s band BLUESOUND, and the drama team IMPACT. “This has become one the highlights of the year for the fine arts department,” Long said. “It’s an interesting mix of familiar carols, anthems, instrumental music, and drama. We know how hectic this season can get and this is a wonderful opportunity to slow down and reflect on Christmas.” The concerts is free and open to the public.

Sheriff’s office sponsors Active Shooting Training MICHIE, Tenn. -- The McNairy County Sheriff’s Department and McNairy County Emergency Management Agency will present Active Shooter Training for church members on Tuesday, Nov. 28 at Crazy K Ranch in Michie. The training will begin at 6:30 p.m. This presentation is free and all area churches are invited to attend the training. The training session will include historical events, threats to church members, armed church members, and what to do in an active church shooter situation.

Parks department hosts “Holiday Splash’ SELMER, Tenn. — Selmer is ready to make a splash for Christmas. The parks and recreation department will create a walk-thru Christmas experience for individuals with its some 50 inflatables, according to the Independent Appeal. “Holiday Splash” will be unveiled Saturday at the Dixie Park Splash Pad. There will be events for kids, Christmas lights, craft and food vendors from 4-8 p.m. The inflatable display is free

and will be open each Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6-8 p.m. “This is something we used to do at the gazebo,” said Selmer Parks and Recreation Director Sybil Dancer. “It gives us a chance to use them again and it’s also something fun to do.” Selmer’s splash will kick off festivities leading up to the 6th Annual Hometown Christmas on Dec. 2 from 2:30-5:30 p.m. “December is just around the corner and the excitement of the holiday season is in the air,” said McNairy County Tourism Director Jessica Huff. Businesses, organizations and individuals once again are being encouraged to decorate a tree with only lights and a topper. “Past experience with ornaments has proven winds and rain are not kind, making it hard to keep ornaments on the trees,” said Huff. Tree sponsorship is $50. Tree setup will be all day on Tuesday, Nov. 28 through Saturday, Dec. 2 until 10 a.m. Trees should be decorated by 10 a.m. so they can be tested prior to the actual lighting. “Those who decorate should bring an all-weather extension cord plainly marked with the owner’s name,” added Huff. “They should be prepared to leave the cord until clean up time to provide power for the tree.” Tree stands and signs will be provided for all trees.This year trees will be located only at Rockabilly Park and the McNairy County Court House lawn. (For more information about the tree lighting, call Theresa Robinson 731-610-6746 or Shannon Speth 731-610-6328.)

The unserious nation How stands John Winthrop’s “city upon a hill” this Thanksgiving? How stands the country that was to be “a light unto the nations”? To those who look to cable Patrick TV for news, the answer must Buchanan at the least be ambiguous. Consider the issues that have Columnist convulsed the public discourse of the American republic. Today’s great question seems to be whether our 45th president is as serious a sexual predator as our 42nd was proven to be, and whether the confessed sins of Sen. Al Franken are as great as the alleged sins of Judge Roy Moore. What is our civil rights issue, and who are today’s successors to the Freedom Riders of the ‘60s? Millionaire NFL players “taking a knee” during the national anthem to dishonor the flag of their country to protest racist cops. And what was the great cultural issue of summer and fall? An ideological clamor to tear down memorials and monuments to the European discoverers of America, any Founding Father who owned slaves and any and all Confederate soldiers and statesmen. Whatever side one may take on these questions, can a country so preoccupied and polarized on such pursuits be taken seriously as a claimant to be the “exceptional nation,” a model to which the world should aspire? Contrast the social, cultural and moral morass in which America is steeped with the disciplined proceedings and clarity of purpose, direction and goals of our 21st-century rival: Xi Jinping’s China. Our elites assure us that America today is a far better place than we have ever known, surely better than the old America that existed before the cultural revolution of the 1960s. Yet President Trump ran on a pledge to “Make America Great Again,” implying that while the America he grew up in was great, in the time of Barack Obama it no longer was. And he won. Certainly, the issues America dealt with half a century ago seem more momentous than what consumes us today. Consider the matters that riveted America in the summer and fall of 1962, when this columnist began to write editorials for the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. What was the civil rights issue of that day? In September of ‘62, Gov. Ross Barnett decided not to allow Air Force vet James Meredith to become the first black student at Ole Miss. Attorney General Robert Kennedy sent U.S. Marshals to escort Meredith in. Hundreds of demonstrators arrived on campus to join student protests. A riot ensued. Dozens of marshals were injured. A French journalist was shot to death. The Mississippi Guard was federalized. U.S. troops were sent in, just as Ike had sent them into Little Rock when Gov. Orville Faubus refused to desegregate Central High. U.S. power was being used to enforce a federal court order on a recalcitrant state government, as it would in 1963 at the University of Alabama, where Gov. George Wallace stood in the schoolhouse door. As civil rights clashes go, this was the real deal. That fall, in a surprise attack, Chinese troops poured through the passes in the Himalayas, invading India. China declared a truce in November but kept the territories it had occupied in Jammu and Kashmir. Then there was the Cuban missile crisis, the most dangerous crisis of the Cold War. We seemed a more serious and united nation then than we are today, where so much that roils our society and consumes our attention seems unserious and even trivial. Since 1962, this nation has dethroned its God and begun debates about which of the flawed but great men who created the nation should be publicly dishonored. Are we really a better country today than we were then, when all the world looked to America as the land of the future? Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of a new book, “Nixon’s White House Wars: The Battles That Made and Broke a President and Divided America Forever.”

Prayer for today Gracious Lord, may I not spend most in equipment and forget the tides, which may desert me on the sands, or the rocks in the channels, which may crush the finest vessel. May I be prepared for the hard knocks if they come, but may I know how to keep clear of them. Amen.

A verse to share For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer. —1 Timothy 4:4-5

Corinth, Miss.

Kaepernick is no Muhammad Ali GQ magazine named former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick its 2017 “Citizen of the Year.” In doing so, GQ overlooked NFL Houston Texans’ J.J. Watt, who raised some $37 million for hurricane relief. Many of Kaepernick’s supporters liken his protest to that of boxer Muhammad Ali, who refused to be inducted into the military. The comparison is not well-taken. For whatever reason, Kaepernick chose not to give the magazine an interview, passing up an opportunity to clearly explain the purpose of his protest. At first, Kaepernick insisted his protest was about the alleged epidemic of police brutality against blacks. Shortly after he started his protest, Kaepernick said: “There’s a lot of things that need to change. One specifically is police brutality. There’s people being murdered unjustly and not being held accountable. The cops are getting paid leave for killing people. That’s not right.” Contrast this with Muhammad Ali’s protest. He argued that his religious beliefs made him a conscientious objector who ought not be forced to join the military. In doing so, Ali faced up to five years in prison and

players permission to stand or not to stand for the national anthem. In Ali’s case, his refusal to join the military cost him the ability to earn a living in his profession. The Supreme Court eventually sided unanimously with Ali, ruling that the appeal board failed to properly specify the reason why Ali’s application for a conscientious-objector exemption had been denied. The ruling required Ali’s conviction to be overturned, and the court said the record shows that Ali’s “beliefs are founded on tenets of the Muslim religion as he understands them.” After his Supreme Court victory, Ali could have sued for lost wages, but Ali refused, arguing that he would rather look ahead then exact revenge. Kaepernick, on the other hand, filed a grievance against the NFL, claiming the owners “colluded” against hiring this mediocre-quarterback-turnedlocker-room distraction. What about the merits of Kaepernick’s argument? Is there an epidemic of police brutality against blacks? The answer is no. According to the Centers for Disease Control, police shootings against blacks

have declined almost 75 percent since 1968. Of the 963 people shot and killed by police in 2016, 233 were black, and 466 were white. Most people could not name a white person killed by the police, because the media are far less interested in a white person killed by a cop than a black person killed by one. Last year, a grand total of 17 unarmed blacks were killed by the police, according to The Washington Post. Contrast this with the approximately 6,000 to 7,000 blacks killed annually, almost all by other blacks. Where is Kaepernick on the fact that the No. 1 cause of preventable death for young blacks is homicide, while the No. 1 cause of preventable death for young white men is “unintentional injuries,” or accidents? Kaepernick’s protest was bogus from the start, and it only helped to create greater unnecessary tension between the black community and the police. “Citizen of the Year,” indeed.

Procurement reform is necessary

As the deadline for procurement reform looms, local governments and contractors are pushing back. It would be a huge mistake if the Legislature caves. With two retired businessmen heading the Mississippi House and Senate transparency and efficiency committees, the Mississippi Legislature miraculously passed sweeping procurement reforms this year. We need to stay the course. Procurement is a huge deal. Including federal grants and special purpose entities, the total Mississippi budget is about $20 billion. If you include local governments, it’s billions more. Much of this work is contracted out to private companies through the procurement process. Mississippi’s procurement laws are a mess, residing in dozens of statutes scattered throughout our state code. Loopholes abound. Oversight is fragmented. Rules are lax compared to other states. State Sen. John Polk and House Rep. Jerry Turner are turning this around with the help of the legislative leadership. But push back is welling up and cities and counties are intimidated by the changes. Most Mississippians think government work is bid out

was stripped of his ability to fight in the U.S. for more than three years, his Larry prime years Elder as an athlete. While Columnist the heavyweight titleholder avoided prison during his appeals process, he was forced to hand over his passport, which prevented him from fighting overseas, as well. Banned from boxing and stripped of his world heavyweight title, Ali argued his case on the road, speaking at a number of colleges and universities, where he repeatedly stated that he would rather abide by his religious convictions rather than violate them in order to make money. Martin Luther King Jr. urged his followers to “admire (Ali’s) courage. He is giving up fame. He is giving up millions of dollars to do what his conscience tells him is right.” By contrast, Kaepernick wants to have it both ways. The NFL allows players to stand or not, depending upon their own choice. So the league actually gives

to the lowest bidder. But over the years, bids have been replaced by Request for Wyatt P r o p o s a l s Emmerich (RFP) and Request for Columnist Qualifications (RFQ) where price is not the criteria. This allows for high bidders to get the government contracts if they have the right political connections. It should not be so. The new legislation regulates the RFP and RFQ process to allow more fairness and more competition. We don’t need to back down on this. In addition, the new legislation requires computerized reverse auction software to be used when governments procure commodities. Computerized reverse auctions are the wave of the future and are increasingly used throughout the country. We need to use this process in Mississippi. Mississippi is struggling economically. Tax revenues have declined. We need to watch every penny. Sen. Polk believes procurement reform will save at least $200 million a year. A reverse auction is just like any online auction that

you see on eBay and other websites. Vendors bid for government commodity purchasing contracts in real time. The lowest price wins. Everything is documented. Everything is transparent. It is a controlled process. Bear in mind, this process is only required for contracts in excess of $50,000. There are exemptions for small cities and counties. There’s another big change: The new legislation creates a new independent statewide Public Procurement Review Board. Cities and counties that request exemptions to the reverse auctions process will have to make their case to this new board. This is much needed oversight. These new state reforms are a big deal affecting billions of dollars and impacting thousands of companies. Lots of money is on the line. Expect a fight. Sen. Polk called me a while back warning me of the pushback. He asked my support in rallying public opinion not to backtrack on the reforms. I will do my best. I have fought for open and transparent government all my life. Open meetings and open records are crucial to our state. But open, fair procurement processes are even more important because so

much money is on the line. I have read procurement laws from over a dozen other states. When compared to Mississippi, it’s like night and day. Most states have procurement laws codified in one statute so the standards and procedures can be clearly understood. Not so in Mississippi. Our procurement laws are buried here and there throughout dozens of strewn out statutes making manipulation child’s play. We need to consolidate all our procurement laws in one clear section of the code. No more burying laws where no one can find them. Progressive states employ the concept of “lowest responsive bidder.” That means you respond to the specification of the bid and you have the lowest price. But not so in Mississippi. We use the concept “lowest and best.” But what is “best”? Such a vague term eviscerates what meager laws we have.

Early Thanksgiving differed from today’s celebration This week many Americans enjoyed abundant meals in thankfulness for bountiful blessings over the year, feasting on turkey, dressing Stacy or stuffing, Jones cranberry sauce, any The n u m b e r Downtowner of cheeseladen casseroles, and pumpkin pie—just as the initial celebrants of the holiday did. Or did they? Perhaps our notion of the holiday hinges upon little more than a longcelebrated Currier & Iveslike myth. The very first Thanksgiving is purported to have taken place in October 1621. Lasting for three days, the gastronomic event was hosted by the Pilgrims, who had disembarked from the Mayflower at Plymouth in 1620, not for the purpose of religious freedom but in order to make money and to establish a religious theocracy—

which they did. It was purportedly attended by the Wampanoag tribe of Native Americans. That’s the semblance of the Thanksgiving we know, but much of everything we are taught beyond some basic facts tends to break down. Accordingly, sociologist and author James W. Loewen, author of “Lies My Teacher Told Me,” discounts the way high school textbooks “teach history” by presenting absolutes as facts to memorize but leave the details unclear. He said, “That mind-set pervades everything they talk about and certainly Thanksgiving.” It wasn’t until 1830 that New Englanders began widely celebrating “Thanksgiving,” with the thought that their rendition resembled the original version, according to Kate Sheehan, a spokeswoman for Plimoth Plantation, a living history museum located in Plymouth. In 1863, the holiday became official, established by President Abraham Lincoln as a way to

express thanks for Civil War victories in Vicksburg, Miss., and Gettysburg, Penn. Nathaniel Philbrick, author of the book “Mayflower: A Story of Courage, Community and War” confirms Loewen’s thesis. As he reveals, most of our mythologized Thanksgiving celebration hails from a letter written by Pilgrim Edward Winslow, in his description of the harvest festival. Winslow makes no reference to “Thanksgiving,” nor does he mention the consumption of turkeys. Instead, Winslow chronicles Governor William Bradford’s directive for the male Pilgrims to go fowling and obtain meat for a special celebration dinner. The four men who undertook this task procured enough duck and geese to feed the settlement for a week. Wampanoag leader Massasoit, who had proposed an alliance with the Pilgrims earlier in the spring, arrived in Plymouth that fall with 90 of his tribe and freshly killed deer. During the celebration,

ily and the humanoid beings of all three known universes. O’Shea is drawn back in when he is hired by a powerful government official to track an unknown alien species passing themselves off as human. What he finds will test his strength, his humanity and his faith when he comes face to face with what lies beyond Shammua. The novel takes readers on a page-turning adventure to four planets and three universes and Story said writing “Beyond Shammua” was a daunting undertaking as it was more than a 300-year leap forward from the last novel. “I have a big imagination,” said Story, with a laugh. She went on to add, “I have some background in science fiction writing and I was thrilled to be able to use that for this last book in the trilogy.” The 52-year-old Glen resident said she has been asked why “Beyond Shammua” had to be set so far into the future when the other books were not. She explained that the technology needed to get the main characters where they needed to go dictated that she would need to make the novel futuristic. However, being a fan of futuristic and science fiction tales, she said she was also looking forward to taking it on. However, she said there was a great deal of world-building that came with the territory and writing the novel took her more than a year. The first novel introduces readers to the world of Healers and Adversaries — a secret society of supernaturally gifted individuals who are holy warriors that fight on the side

of good or evil. The second novel introduces the Criers — a branch of The Gifted who possess prophetic powers. The novels are a far cry from what Story writes in her working life as a staff writer for the Daily Corinthian. “I know the storyline sounds so strange when I say it out loud. Fiction writing was actually what I always wanted to do and I have enjoyed being able to explore that and get my work out there,” said Story. She said she doesn’t doubt that she would never have completed her first novel without the challenge issued to her by Hyman. Story’s sister wanted to take part in the National Write a Novel in a Month (NANOWRIMO) challenge that takes place annually in November. “At first, I didn’t think I wanted to do it. I had tried NANOWRIMO before and always ran out of steam by the third week, but when my little sister challenged me ... well, I couldn’t let that pass and it was so fun to cheer each other on,” said Story. Hyman also completed the challenge and has gone on to release two novels in her popular Day Zero Series of books and is expected to release the third in the next few months. Story now plans to move forward with promoting

“Beyond Shammua” and the other books of The Gifted Trilogy. Her first book signing event since the newest book’s release will be on Saturday, Dec. 2 from 12 until 2 p.m. at Taylor Wick & Co., located at in Corinth’s SoCo District. The author is working on her next book, a SciFi thriller called “Memomancer,” which she hopes to release in 2018. Story is the daughter of Joe and Betty Story of Glen and is married to poet Keith W. Sikora. She is always proud to talk about her four “amazing children” and four “equally amazing grandchildren.” (For more information about L.A. Story’s work, visit her website at http://lastorywriter.com. Her work is available online in e-book and/or print editions at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, the author’s website or BooksA-Million.

deer and fowl turned on wooden spits, while pottages simmered. Meanwhile, the first celebrants of the holiday would also have been observers of the change of the foliage from green to the vibrant fall colors of New England. Winslow describes the Plymouth Harvest Festival as “more like Woodstock, an outdoor celebration that just sort of happened…. a legacy of spontaneity, goodwill and hope that is needed today more than ever before.” On the other hand, according to Sheehan, the spokeswoman for Plimoth Plantation, the presence of Native Americans in the account may even be somewhat spurious. “The English-written record,” she says, “does not mention an invitation, and Wampanoag oral tradition does not seem to reach back to this event. But there are reasons the Wampanoag leader could have been there.” She further explained, “His people had been planting on the other side of the brook from the colony. Another

possibility is that after his harvest was gathered, he was making diplomatic calls.” Of course, the “friendship” between European immigrants and Native Americans also helps masquerade the outcome of the co-mingling of these two groups of people. The idea that they were once “friends” perhaps helps soften the land grabs and massacres that were to come later and that have ultimately left one of the greatest blights, aside from slavery, on our American history. As University of Texas journalism professor Robert Jensen reminds us: “By 1637, Massachusetts Bay Colony governor John Winthrop “was proclaiming a thanksgiving for the successful massacre of hundreds of Pequot Indian men, women and children…. a bloody pattern that would “repeat itself across the continent until between 95 and 99 percent of American Indians had been exterminated.” Perhaps, too, the notion of sharing food provides

comfort—despite the fact that the relationship between the two groups ended adversarially. In the end, that famed pumpkin pie, though, was also missing from the Plymouth Harvest Festival—or any pie, for that matter. Pilgrims would have had no way to make a crust, having lacked butter, wheat flour, and an oven for baking. Thank goodness Native Americans did pave way for the growing of corn. Else, I would be missing one of my favorite Southern Thanksgiving dishes: cornbread dressing. Those New Englanders may have savored their freshly caught fowl and stews; however, I will gladly devour my mother’s homemade dressing in my annual harvest giving of thanks.

Macy’s Thanksgiving parade revels on amid tight security Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade featured balloons, bands, stars and heavy security in a year marked by attacks on outdoor gathering spots. With new faces and old favorites in the lineup, the Americana extravaganza made its way through 2½ miles of Manhattan on a cold morning. “The crowds are still the same, but there’s a lot more police here. That’s the age we live in,” Paul Seyforth said as he attended the parade he’d watched since the 1950s. “Not a lot’s changed — the balloons, the bands, the floats — and that’s the good thing,” said Seyforth, 76, who’d flown in from Denver to spend his 50th wedding anniversary in New York and see this year’s parade. The televised parade was proceeding smooth-

ly, though about midway through, a gust of wind on a largely calm day blew a candy-cane balloon into a tree branch, and it popped near the start of the route on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. No one was injured. In 2005, one of the parade’s signature giant balloons caught a gust, hit a Times Square lamppost and injured two people. The candy cane was smaller than the giant balloons. Timothy McMillian and his wife, their 9-yearold daughter and his inlaws started staking out a spot along the route at 6:30 a.m. They’d come from Greensboro, North Carolina, to see in person the spectacle they’d watched on TV for years. McMillian, a 45-yearold schoolteacher, booked a hotel months ago, but he started to have some concerns about security when a truck attack on a

bike path near the World Trade Center killed eight people on Halloween. “With the event being out in the open like this, we were concerned,” he said. “But we knew security would be ramped up today, and we have full confidence in the NYPD.” Authorities say there is no confirmation of a credible threat to the parade, but they were taking no chances after both the truck attack and the October shooting that killed 58 people at a Las Vegas country music festival. Four activists jumped over barriers and briefly sat down in the street at about 9:10 a.m. to protest the end of a program that extended protections to immigrants brought illegally to the U.S. as children, according to a spokesman for activist group Cosecha. Police quickly escorted them back.

Congressman to discuss U.S. declares ‘ethnic cleansing’ against Rohingya in Myanmar disclosed photo of self BY JOSH LEDERMAN

BY CALVIN WOODWARD Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Suggesting he’s a victim of revenge porn from a jilted lover, Republican Rep. Joe Barton of Texas says he plans to go silent about the release of a nude photo of him online because police are investigating the disclosure as a possible crime against him. Authorities have not confirmed an investigation. The 68-year-old Barton, who joined the House in 1985, has acknowledged sharing intimate material with a lover and accused her of threatening to make it public when he ended the relationship. The unidentified woman told The Washington Post that she did not put it online and said the congressman sought to intimidate her by threatening to go to the authorities if she exposed his conduct. The he said-she said dispute erupted in the

midst of sexual misconduct allegations drawing in several other members of Congress as well as Senate Republican candidate Roy Moore of Alabama, who is accused of disrobing a 14-year-old girl. The consequences for Barton are not immediately apparent aside from his mortification: The relationship with the woman was evidently consensual. The Post published details of a secretly recorded conversation between Barton and his lover from 2015 in which he threatened to “take all this crap to the Capitol Hill Police and have them launch an investigation” if she did not agree to keep “inappropriate photographs and video” that he had exchanged with her from becoming public. He said she had already shared material with other women with whom he had been involved.

In a statement after that report, Barton said the “Capitol Police reached out to me and offered to launch an investigation and I have accepted. Because of the pending investigation, we will have no further comment.” He said the woman’s comments on the tape could be evidence of a “potential crime against me.” Capitol Police have not said whether they have begun an investigation. A message left by The Associated Press at Barton’s district office in Arlington, Texas, was not returned. The voicemail for his office in Washington was full. Making explicit images available without the subject’s permission is a felony in the District of Columbia and a Class A misdemeanor in Texas under revenge porn laws passed several years ago. More than 30 other states have such a law; there is no corresponding federal law.

WASHINGTON — The United States declared the ongoing violence against Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar to be “ethnic cleansing” on Wednesday, threatening penalties for military officials engaged in a brutal crackdown that has sent more than 620,000 refugees flooding over the border to Bangladesh. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson blamed Myanmar’s security forces and “local vigilantes” for what he called “intolerable suffering” by the Rohingya. Although the military has accused Rohingya insurgents of triggering the crisis, Tillerson said “no provocation can justify the horrendous atrocities that have ensued.” “After a careful and thorough analysis of available facts, it is clear that the situation in northern Rakhine state constitutes ethnic cleansing against the Rohingya,” Tillerson said in a statement. Although the designation carries no legal obligations for the

U.S. to act, Tillerson said those who perpetrated the atrocities “must be held accountable.” He added that the U.S. wanted a full investigation and was considering “targeted sanctions” against those responsible — but not broader sanctions against the nation. Rohingya from Myanmar’s Rakhine state have been fleeing to neighboring Bangladesh, seeking refuge from what Myanmar’s military has called “clearance operations.” The crisis started in August, when Rohingya insurgents attacked Myanmar security forces, leading to a brutal crackdown in which soldiers and Buddhist mobs have killed men, raped women and girls and burned homes and property to force the Rohingya to leave. The declaration followed a lengthy review process by President Donald Trump’s administration to determine whether the violence met the threshold to be considered ethnic cleansing. The United Nations came to that conclusion in September, but the U.S. had

held off, with Tillerson saying he needed more information even as he expressed deep concern about the crisis. Last week, Tillerson traveled to Myanmar in the highest level visit by a U.S. official since Trump took office. U.S. officials dangled the possibility of an “ethnic cleansing” designation ahead of Tillerson’s trip, potentially giving him more leverage as he met with officials in Myanmar. In the capital of Naypitaw, Tillerson met with the country’s civilian leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, as well as Myanmar’s powerful military chief, Min Aung Hlaing, who is in charge of operations in Rakhine state, home to Myanmar’s Rohingya population. The leader of a group that works to improve conditions for the Rohingya said Thursday he hopes the declaration will strengthen the call for accountability. Arakan Project director Chris Lewa said he thought Tillerson’s visit had been relatively appreciated and he hoped it would prove constructive.

‘Bookworm Sez’ Christmas gift guide list BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

Finally – your holiday shopping is DONE. Well, except for… um, and for…. and okay, you’re not really done. Everybody, you included, has that one certain person on the gift list who’s hard to buy for and another certain person who’s really fussy, and a Grandma who has everything. You know who they are, so see if some of these great books might be matches for your list, or books to reward you, Holiday Shopper, at the end of a long, stressful day.

Fiction Mystery fans who know their A-B-Cs obviously know Sue Grafton. This year’s Kinsey Millhone mystery, “Y is for Yesterday” begins with a nearly40-year-old crime and a former criminal who may not be so “former” after all. Wrap this book up for the biggest smile next to the tree. Also look for “Odd Child Out” by Gilly Macmillan. It’s the story of two best friends and one possible murder. The person on your list who often says she’d like to “chuck it all and run away” will love reading “The Runaway Midwife” by Patricia Harman. It’s the story of a midwife who does just that – she leaves behind a life, friends, and trouble and heads to Canada to start over. But it’s difficult to always be on-guard, especially when you know you can’t hide forever. Wrap it up with “The Art of Keeping Secrets” by Rachael Johns, a novel of friendship, being yourself, trust, and knowing when to keep quiet sometimes. Who loves a good gaslighter? Your giftee, that’s who, and “How I Lost You” by Jenny Blackhurst is a great book to wrap. It’s the tale of a woman who killed her infant son – or did she? Once she’s released from psychiatric treatment, she has reason to wonder… wrap it up with “Without Merit” by Colleen Hoover, a novel of secrets, truth, and its consequences. For the person who loves novels of international intrigue, “Act of Betrayal” by Matthew Dunn may make a great gift. This thriller involves assassination, conspiracy, CIA operatives, need I say more? For the romantic on your list,

“Lilac Lane” by Sherryl Woods will be the best gift this year. It’s the story of a grieving woman and the townspeople that wrap their arms around her. Is it possible to find love again? Wrap it up with “I, Eliza Hamilton” by Susan Holloway Scott, a romance-y novel set in historical times.

Miscellaneous non-fiction The Stars-in-Her-Eyes romantic on your list will love getting “How to Fall in Love with Anyone” by Mandy Len Catron. Based on a study and an essay, it’s the story of an audacious experiment and an examination on why we love the ones we do. Wrap it up with “Heartthrobs: A History of Women and Desire” by Carol Dyhouse. It’s a good look back at love and lust. For the reader who loves reading about books, “Wild Things: The Joy of Reading Children’s Literature as an Adult” by Bruce Handy will be a great gift to open, especially if you can find a copy of a long-cherished (but long-missing) book from your giftee’s childhood. Then wrap it up with “Was the Cat in the Hat Black?” By Philip Nel, a look at possible racism in children’s books. For the traveler on your gift list, “The Wayfarer’s Handbook” by Even S. Rice will be a really nice stocking stuffer. This little book is filled with nuggets of suggestion, idea, tips, and facts. Best of all: it’s pocket-sized and lightweight, perfect for when there’s just not a lotta room left in the backpack. Pair it up with “Vacation on Location: Midwest” by Joey Green, so your giftee can see where his favorite movies (and scenes) were filmed in the Midwest, and what else is interesting nearby. Theorists and those who like to dig into the other side of society will like unwrapping “The New World Order Book” by Nick Redfern. Who really runs things? What do various symbols mean on flags or logos? Who wins in a war on world domination? It’s in this book… Wrap it up with “The Illuminati: The Secret Society that Hijacked the World” by Jim Marrs, for more big secrets. The foodie who has every cookbook under the sun (or so

it seems) will enjoy unwrapping “The Taste of Empire” by Lizzie Collingham. It’s a book about how the history of food in Great Britain has shaped the way the world eats. Pair it with another book about a great obsession: “The One-Cent Magenta” by James Barron is a book about stamp collecting and the one stamp collectors want most. What happens when a man gets out of prison? “Invisible Men” by Flores A. Forbes takes a look at formerly incarcerated Black men, and what happens to the 35% who don’t return to prison because of recidivism. Along the way, this book also looks at the prison system and African American lives. Students of Black History will especially want to see this book beneath the tree. The historian on your list will be shocked when you hand him this gift: “Greater Gotham: A History of New York City from 1898 to 1919” by Mike Wallace. Shocked – because this definitive book is huge and heavy and will last a long time. Wrap it up with “Going into Town: A Love Letter to New York” by Roz Chast for a gift that will last even longer… For the poll-follower on your list this year, “Everybody Lies” by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz might make a great gift. This is a book about how “facts” lie, the internet can be wrong, and polls often don’t mean a thing. Might be a good book for your political animal, too, hmmm? Wrap it up with “Montaigne in Barn Boots” by Michael Perry, for a bit of philosophy with your psychology. If your giftee loves to peoplewatch or know what makes us tick, look at “Awkward: The Science of Why We’re Socially Awkward and Why That’s Awesome” by Ty Tashiro, PhD. It’s a book that examines why we put our feet in our mouths so often. Also peek at “The Stress Test” by Ian Robertson, PhD., which is about how pressure actually makes us better, more productive people. Before you wrap this up, beware: “He Never Came Home,” edited by Regina R. Robertson may cause tears more than delight. It’s a collection of interviews and essays from daughters who’ve lost their dads, so watch out. Even so, it’s a bittersweet book and may be the exact

right gift. If there’s someone on your gift list who wants a comprehensive look at things that go “bump” in the night, then wrap up “Demons, the Devil, and Fallen Angels” by Marie D. Jones and Larry Flaxman. It’s a book about religion, beliefs, traditions, and the dark side of all of the above. Wrap it up with “Supernatural Gods” by Jim Willis, a book about psychics, mysteries, and the paranormal. You might also want to look for “The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings” by J.M. DeBord… For the person who loves a good scandal, “The Bettencourt Affair” by Tom Sancton would be an excellent gift. This is the story of an empire that still exists, a World War II scandal, glitz, and glamour, love and money. Can your giftee resist? Another great scandal-laden book is “The Naughty Nineties” by David Friend, a book that takes a look at libido, tabloids, and sin in the 1990s. Fans of last years’ “Hillbilly Elegy” will want to read this years’ “Glass House” by Brian Alexander. It, too, takes a look at the Haves and the Have Nots but it also looks at the Have Even Lesses and the struggling town they live in. Pair it up with “Nomadland” by Jessica Bruder, a look at the New Economy and part-time workers. Everybody has a funnyman on their gift list, and “Now That’s Funny!” By Peter Desberg and Jeffrey Davis is perfect for yours. It’s a great anthology of interviews with 24 of Hollywood’s best and funniest comedy writers. He’ll read about how comedy is presented, what it takes to do it, and some of the most memorable moments on television. For the funnyman who also loves a good scare, scare up “The Art of Horror Movies: An Illustrated History,” edited by Stephen Jones. With lots of illustrations and reproductions of movie posters, this gift will be Oscar-worthy. For the about-to-be-single, “The Ex-Wives’ Guide to Divorce” by Holiday Miller and Valerie Shepherd may be a welcome gift. It’s a book on surviving, moving forward, and thriving at the end of a marriage, good or not. Then show her that

Memoirs/biographies Here’s a book that’ll be passed around this holiday season: “Hazard” by Margaret Combs. It’s the story of family, growing up in the 1950s through the 1970s, and being a sibling of a brother with autism. Perfect for Baby Boomers. Even more perfect if your giftee is a sib. Or wrap it up with “The Glass Eye” by Jeannie Vanasco, a memoir of grief, unsettled questions, mental health, and memories that can haunt… If there’s someone on your list who loves true-life tales, look for “Granite Mountain” by Brendan McDonough (with Stephan Talty). It’s the story of one man’s inner battle to leave his addiction behind, his new life, and his “brothers,” the brave men who died in an Arizona firestorm. For the wandering soul on your list this year, “The Drive” by Teresa Bruce will make a great gift. It’s the story of the recreation of a meaningful trip. The original one started and ended in tragedy. Would this one, through Central and South America, turn out better? Wrap it up with “Traveling with Ghosts” by Shannon Leone Fowler, a book about loss and losing one’s self on the road in order to deal with it. If there’s an art lover-slashhistorian on your list, you can’t go wrong with “Leonardo Da Vinci” by Walter Isaacson, a sweeping new bio on the genius artist-creator. It’s an eye-opener (and a door-opener, it’s that big!) Also look for “Elizabeth Taylor: Tribute to a Legend” by Boze Hadleigh, a series of quotations and observations from the people who knew Liz best. Season’s Readings!

Ole Miss stuns Mississippi State The Associated Press

STARKVILLE — Jordan Ta’amu threw for 247 yards and two touchdowns, Jordan Wilkins ran for two scores and Mississippi upset No. 16 Mississippi State 31-28 on Thursday night. Ole Miss (6-6, 3-5 Southeastern Conference) held off a late Mississippi State rally to win the Egg Bowl for the fourth time in six seasons. The Rebels had a 10-6 lead at halftime and broke it open in the second half with touchdown passes of 77 yards to A.J. Brown and 63 yards to D.K. Metcalf. Brown, the SEC’s leader in yards receiving, had six catches for 167 yards. Wilkins had 110 yards rushing.

Mississippi State (8-4, 4-4) was a two-touchdown favorite, but had to play most of the game without starting quarterback Nick Fitzgerald. He was carted off the field in the first quarter with a right leg injury. Fitzgerald came into the game with 968 yards rushing this season, which was the most for a quarterback in the SEC. Without him, the Bulldogs turned to freshman Keytaon Thompson, but the offense wasn’t nearly as effective until the fourth quarter. The Bulldogs trailed 3113 with 8:23 remaining, but scored two touchdowns to pull to 31-28 with 1:05 left. Ole Miss recovered an onside

kick to seal the victory. Mississippi State hurt itself with five turnovers — two interceptions and three fumbles. The game took a rough turn later in the first quarter when Fitzgerald took a snap and ran to the left before being tackled to the ground. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound junior immediately grabbed at his right leg, which was bent at an awkward angle. He was down for several minutes before being carted off the field.

The takeaway Ole Miss: It’s a sweet ending to a rough season for the Rebels. Ole Miss has an eventful offseason ahead of it — the program is still await-

ing word on its full punishment from the NCAA in its rules infractions case against the school. The Rebels will also decide if they’ll keep interim coach Matt Luke or turn to someone else. Mississippi State: The Bulldogs had all the momentum coming into Thursday’s game, but Fitzgerald’s injury changed all that in a hurry.

Up next Ole Miss’ season is over. The Rebels aren’t eligible for the postseason because of a self-imposed bowl ban related to its NCAA infractions case. Mississippi State prepares for its eighth straight trip to a bowl game.

It’s Lighthouse time!

The 5th Annual Lighthouse Hoops Classic begins today and, after 18 games over the next two days, will conclude when the host Corinth Warriors tangle with Hazel Green (AL) Saturday night. We’ve been saying it all along, and you’ve been hearing, that this shapes up to be the best Lighthouse Classic yet and it’s taken some doings to make it to this point. Tournament director Vince Overholt has logged thousands of miles scouting outstanding teams with outstanding players from across the country in order to bring us the most epic sporting event in Alcorn County all year. Shoot, this may be the most epic event in the entire state. There will be no change in prices for admission this year and that’s great news in and of itself. Single entry tickets will be $10 for adults, $5 for students (K-12) with 4-under admitted free. If you plan on coming and going you can take advantage of the comeand-go pass for just $20 a day for adults and $10 for students. The best value is the 2-day come and go pass for $30 adults and $15 for students. Taking a look at the games on the schedule for Friday, Alcorn Central will tip the tournament against Potts Camp at 9 am followed by

Lighthouse Classic Friday Schedule 9 a.m. Alcorn Central vs Potts Camp 10:30 a.m. Biggersville vs Ashland (MS) Noon Houlka (MS) vs Middleton (TN) 1:30 p.m. Cordova (TN) vs Forest Hill (MS) 3 p.m. Hazel Green (AL vs Columbus (MS) 4:30 p.m. Madison Prep (AL) vs Olive Branch (MS) LH Prep Challenge Semifinal #1 6 p.m. Sunrise Christian (KS) vs Aspire Acad. (KY) 7:30 p.m. Corinth vs Poplar Bluff (MO) LH Prep Challenge Semifinal #2 9 p.m. Believe Academy (TN) vs Prolific Prep (CA) what should be a high-scoring, guard-driven contest between Biggersville and defending 1-A state champion Ashland. Following that game, legendary North Mississippi coach Jimmy Guy McDonald will have his Houlka team, featuring the high-scoring Ma’Darius Hobson, ready to go against a talented Middleton (TN) squad. The action only heats up from there as Cordova, featuring Tyler Harris, one of the most coveted and recruited point guards in the nation, will go against Forest Hill (MS) and their 6’7” highlight reel forward Ladarius Marshall. Harris set a Lighthouse Classic record last year when he drained nine 3-pointers in a single game. Marshall loves the spectacular, off thethe-backboard type of dunks and fans who have attended the Lighthouse Classic before have witnessed his skills first-hand. The day’s fifth contest will

pit newcomer Hazel Green (AL) against 2016 state champion Columbus, featuring 6’7” Mississippi State signee Robert Woodard II. Hazel Green has a loaded roster as well and features 6’3” junior guard Kira Lewis. The 5 p.m. game will feature Madison Prep (LA) against Olive Branch (MS). This could become the best game on the Friday docket as two of the top players in the country will face off with Madison Prep’s 6’7” Georgetown signee and All-American Josh LeBlanc going against Olive Branch 6’8” junior All-American DJ Jeffries who is a literal man-child. He has already been offered by Kentucky. The first semifinal game of the Lighthouse Prep Challenge- sponsored by the Grind House- will follow and pit Sunrise Christian (KS) against Aspire Academy (KY). The list of top-ranked players in this one is too lengthy for this short space but the names to know for

Sunrise are 7’0” sophomore N’faly Dante and for Aspire keep an eye on 6’11” junior Charles Bassey, a top-3 player in the Class of 2019. Following that star-studded contest hometown Corinth will host Poplar Bluff (MO). The Warriors are led by Morehead State signee Tada Stricklen while Poplar Bluff is stacked with nextlevel talent. In the Friday finale Believe Academy (TN) will square off against Prolific Prep from Napa (CA), the seventh-ranked team in the country, in the second Prep Challenge semifinal. Prolific feature 6’11” Jordan Brown, the No. 6 player in the nation according to Rivals. The first day of the 5th Annual Lighthouse Classic is here and we hope you enjoy as much of the action as you can. We’ll see you at CHS gym.

Chargers blast fading Cowboys The Associated Press

ARLINGTON, Texas — Philip Rivers was more than comfortable on the Thanksgiving stage for the first time in his 14 NFL seasons. Same with Keenan Allen, who didn’t have to wait nearly that long. Rivers threw for 434 yards and three touchdowns, Allen had a career-high 172 yards in his second straight huge game and the Los Angeles Chargers beat the fading Dallas Cowboys 28-6 on Thursday. Desmond King returned an interception 90 yards for the punctuating touchdown. The Chargers (5-6) moved within 1 1/2 games of AFC West-leading Kansas City after starting 0-4 while the Chiefs won their first five. “Playing on Thanksgiving was everything it was cranked up to be,” said Rivers, who was 27 of 33 in his ninth career 400-yard game . “As a quarterback, you want to play well and throw it to your guys, and we did a lot today. But I’m more excited about our team.” The defending NFC East champion Cowboys (5-6) have lost three straight games by at least 20 points for the first time since 2004, all without suspended star running back Ezekiel Elliott in a damaging slide for their fading playoff hopes. Dallas, playing its 50th Thanksgiving game, finally ended a touchdown drought at a team-record 10 quarters on Rod Smith’s 2-yard run early in the fourth quarter. The Cowboys have been outscored 72-6 in the second half of the three losses. Quarterback Dak Prescott has looked lost without Elliott, his backfield mate for a pair of remarkable rookie seasons that led the Cowboys to the best record in the NFC last season. Prescott had two interceptions, giving him five in two games after throwing just four a year ago. Last year’s NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year has nine picks for the season and the Cowboys already have twice as many losses as a year ago with Elliott only halfway through a six-game suspension for alleged domestic violence. “The last thing I’m doing is pointing a finger and saying, ‘We need this guy, we need that to happen,’” said Prescott, who was 20 of 27 for 179 yards in his third straight game without a TD pass. “I’m going to say we’ve just got to figure out

what’s going on and get out of this slump.” Rivers had seven completions of at least 22 yards, including Allen’s 42-yard catch-and-run when he weaved through five defenders for a 22-6 lead. Allen, in his fifth season, has two of his three biggest yardage games in the past two weeks. He had 11 catches and a score after 12 grabs for 159 yards and two TDs in a 54-24 win over Buffalo. “When I first got here, he was a little heavy,” first-year coach Anthony Lynn said. “I think once he got his weight down, you could see the run after catch, the quickness, all those things you see in a No. 1 receiver.” LA, with 500-plus total yards (515) for the first time in two years, overcame the loss of kicker Nick Novak to a back injury, the second straight game that Dallas’ opposing kicker was injured and in the same game that Dallas’ Dan Bailey returned after missing four games with a groin injury. Just like last week in the Cowboys’ blowout loss to division-leading Philadelphia, neither of the kickers mattered much with the Dallas offense sputtering and the defense not getting key stops. Novak returned to make a 22-yard field goal after the injury, but left for good after missing an extra point . Punter Drew Kaser was 1 of 3 on extra points. The Chargers went for a fourth-and-13 in field goal range in a scoreless game early in the second quarter with Novak’s status in doubt, coming up a yard short. Four-time Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith returned for Dallas after missing two games with back and groin injuries, but the Cowboys lost 2014 All-Pro right guard Zack Martin to a concussion in the first half.

Thanksgiving streak LA has a Thanksgiving winning streak in Texas, because the Chargers’ previous holiday showing was a 21-17 AFL win at Houston in 1969, the year before the merger. It was the longest gap (48 years) for a team between Thanksgiving games in NFL history.

Up next Chargers: Browns on Dec. 3 in first of two straight home games. Cowboys: Redskins next Thursday in last of three straight home games.

Strong finish rallies No. 3 MSU past No. 24 ASU Mississippi State Sports Information

CANCUN, Mexico — A strong finish lifted the No. 3 Mississippi State women’s basketball team to a 65-57 victory over No. 24 Arizona State in an opening-round game of the Cancun Challenge being played at Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya. Victoria Vivians led a trio of Bulldogs in double figures. Vivians scored 17 points, while Roshunda Johnson added 16 points and Teaira McCowan added 15 points. McCowan scored 13 points and grabbed eight of her 14 boards in the fourth quarter. “(Jazzmun Holmes and McCowan) were the difference in the fourth quarter,” MSU head coach Vic Schaefer said. “We outscored them 2212. Offensively, we ex-

ecuted much better. We shot 50 percent in the fourth quarter. Our execution was critical. Teaira was dominant in the second half. She was great with offensive boards and defensive boards. She had a double-double in the second half.” The Bulldogs (4-0) led by as many as 13 points late in the first quarter but an offensive drought to end the half meant a 29-28 deficit at halftime. State would also trail 4543 entering the final quarter. “After a couple of fouls early, I knew I had to come in and help my team,” McCowan said.

“When they delivered me the ball, I knew I had to finish. My job was to play good defense. When my teammates delivered me the ball, I knew I had to score. It was a tight game and we needed the points.” An 11-0 run helped the Bulldogs to an early 21-8 advantage. The Bulldogs were then held without a field goal over the final 7:45 of the half. Things were nip-andtuck throughout the second half. MSU would then take charge with the first eight points of the fourth quarter. “We had some kids really gut it out today,” Schaefer said. “We made some big shots in the fourth quarter. Once we got some turnovers and some transition going, we were in good shape. Sometimes, we don’t wear

the other team down until the fourth quarter.” For the contest, MSU hit 25 of 61 shots from the field (41.0 percent), 3 of 10 shots from 3-point range (30.0 percent) and 12 of 18 shots from the foul line (66.7 percent). Arizona State hit 22 of 58 shots from the field (37.9 percent), 3 of 16 shots from 3-point range (18.8 percent) and 10 of 12 shots from the foul line (83.3 percent). MSU held a 40-34 rebounding advantage. The Bulldogs had 11 assists and 19 turnovers, while the Sun Devils had 10 assists and 18 turnovers. Arizona State (4-1) received 13 points from Kianna Ibis and 10 points from Sabrina Haines. MSU will continue its tournament play by facing Columbia at 10 a.m. CT Friday.

Landlord questions tenant’s claim that he sleepwalks

D E A R ABBY: I am a man who owns a large four-bedroom home, and I have two tenants. One pays Abigail rent on Van Buren the time, helps with cleanDear Abby ing and yard work, and is an all-around great roommate. The other has been here for four months, has never paid his rent on time and always disappears when we must clear off the driveway or do yard work. The major problem I have with this guy is he sleepwalks — at least he claims he does. He opens doors at night. Some mornings I have found the front door or garage door wide open. Additionally, he raids the refrigerator late at night. He claims he doesn’t realize he’s doing it. It’s really annoying to find food I prepared the night before to take to work has been eaten. I have spoken to him about it on numerous occasions, and he claims that he can’t control his sleepwalking. I feel he should have told me about his issues prior to signing the lease. None

of the references he gave mentioned his sleepwalking. Is it considered a disability? Would I be discriminating against a disability if I chose to not renew his lease because of his sleepwalking? — LANDLORD IN WISCONSIN DEAR LANDLORD: Because doors are being left open, it might be in your interest to install inexpensive security cameras. Sleepwalking (and sleep eating) can be symptoms of a sleep disorder, or possibly be caused by certain sleep medications. If your tenant is unaware of this, he should be informed and advised to be evaluated at a sleep disorder clinic. Because he doesn’t pay rent on time or do other things expected of him, you may not be obligated to renew his lease. My advice is to talk to a lawyer about how — and whether — you can get rid of this tenant. DEAR ABBY: My ex-motherin-law, “Blanche,” takes my 14-year-old daughter, “Grace,” shopping often. I was grateful at first, but now she buys her anything she wants. Grace has a high school dance soon, and I was looking forward to shopping with her. But before I could go, Blanche took her and bought her a $299 dress. I wasn’t consulted be-

cause Grace knew I would’ve said no. She’s a freshman and that’s just way too much money to spend. I asked them to take the dress back, and Blanche said OK. A week later I called her to explain why I said no, but instead of listening, she told me it was her Christmas and birthday present for Grace, and she wasn’t taking it back. My daughter never spends that kind of money. Grace said she was keeping the dress, and I told her she was not wearing it. How do I explain this to my daughter who has become selfentitled because of her grandmother? — ANYTHING SHE WANTS DEAR ANYTHING: You have already explained it to your daughter. You told her it was too much money to spend. The problem isn’t just Grace, it’s also your exmother-in-law. You are Grace’s mother, and your wishes should have been respected. I don’t blame you for being angry. 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). Who is on your side? Not that people have to be on your side for you to get something out of interacting with them. But if they do happen to be on Team You, you’re going to feel much more comfortable and free around them. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Lying opens the door to doubt. It makes it hard to believe or to be believed. There’s a small and tempting lie hanging over you -maybe it seems like the kinder choice -- but if you can avoid it, do. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Improvement is the goal. If improvement is always the goal, eventually you’ll hit the heights. But if you make the heights the goal, every small win will be diminished by the cruelty that is comparison. CANCER (June 22-July 22). For the sake of being orderly, you may have to cut something out. You may have to lose a lot of something, actually, but the remaining part should be much easier to manage.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The simplicity of your approach will be disarming to those dealing with massive complexities. And as they pause to observe, perhaps in wonderment or maybe just to chuckle to themselves, you’ll make your next brilliant move. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Strongly consider putting your thoughts into written form, especially in a letter to someone you appreciate. Everything about the written expression will be thoughtfully received, maybe even cherished. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you can keep to the topics and activities that contribute to your health and stay on purpose, this is no small thing. Reward it. You might be surprised how few people can do this. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Every family has its own kind of delicate balance to strike, and today you’re throwing weight in this corner or the other just to keep things afloat. Don’t wear yourself out over it. Give others a chance to contribute.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your family balance may be upset, but this is very positive. It’s what had to happen to strengthen the bonds. Tonight, you’re open-minded. You may even be willing to travel beyond reality as you know it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Do you have people around you who believe in you even more than you believe in yourself? Because that’s a gift. Treasure them, and let them know about that, too! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today’s luck springs from appreciating where you come from, partly because you’re now experienced enough to understand the pressures and freedoms of adulthood and the difficulties involved in raising another human. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In the wizarding world, you say your spell, wave your wand, and it’s done. In the physical world, there’s so much more breath and flesh to involve in it. Maybe that’s better. Work will feel good to you today.

Family hurt by Hurricane Harvey counts blessings BY NOMAAN MERCHANT Associated Press

HOUSTON — The kitchen where George and Arva Dorsey prepare an 18-dish feast every Thanksgiving has been stripped of everything but its granite countertops, standing on their own with no appliances below. The house they renovated and expanded over three decades has been gutted down to its wooden beams. Almost three months after Hurricane Harvey slammed into the Texas Gulf Coast, killing more than 80 people and damaging at least 200,000 homes, the Dorseys and other families are celebrating Thanksgiving however they can. “We try to keep our head up, and we know that God is above all,” said Arva Dorsey, sitting next to her husband in the dining room where they would have served Thanksgiving dinner. “So many of the blessings have come through this disaster. We’re just grateful.” George Dorsey said one possibility was the family — including some members from out of town — could spend Thursday with a friend. Or they might go to a local buffetstyle restaurant for turkey and trimmings. Some people are gathering at churches that have held large meals for people displaced by the storm and volunteers spending the holiday away from their families to help rebuild. Others will go to annual events like Houston’s “Super Feast,” where volunteers this year will hand out clothes and supplies along with turkey and stuffing. Furniture store owner Jim McIngvale — a Hous-

Family hit hard by Hurricane Harvey ton icon known as “Mattress Mack” — is opening one of his Gallery Furniture locations for a feast that starts at 10 a.m. Thursday. In Houston, the nation’s fourth-largest city, there are plenty of signs of progress. Blocks that had piles of debris on every front lawn are being cleared. Work crews are in neighborhoods all over the city, and nonprofit groups have distributed hundreds of millions in aid. But more than 47,000 people across Texas, including the Dorseys, are still staying in hotels with vouchers from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Others are staying with family members or have left Southeast Texas altogether, abandoning mortgages on homes that were wrecked by floodwaters. Some people are still living in apartments infested with mold. The Dorseys were rescued from their home the second night of the storm by a National Guard truck, with Guardsmen pulling them out of floodwaters that had reached several feet and still rising. The Guard took them to a nearby Baptist church, where they slept for two nights on the floor until

cots arrived. They spent a week at the church, where they celebrated their 35th anniversary with a dance as other evacuees toasted them holding paper cups filled with punch. Dozens of volunteers from churches all over the world have since arrived in their neighborhood, many of them unprompted, to help rebuild. George Dorsey, 59, walked through his house last week as volunteers from the group Samaritan’s Purse worked inside and on the roof. The staccato sound of nail guns rang out as he talked. The air inside was dry, but dusty. Dorsey retired after 25 years working at an ExxonMobil plastics plant and now serves at a deacon at his church. With the booming voice of a preacher, Dorsey told long stories about the history of each room and his four sons, ranging in age from 31 to 16. Arva Dorsey, 58, sat outside with a few of her neighbors, smiling and joking wryly about how much her husband could talk. She had a walker in front of her. The first time she came back to the house, she slipped on a step where water had seeped in from the drywall. She tore the carti-

lage in her left knee and had surgery earlier this month. Among the things she’s thankful for are the volunteers from Samaritan’s Purse, not just for the labor they provided for free, but for offering to pray with her and asking about how her family was doing. “I didn’t even realize that I must have been depressed, or something was keeping me from doing what was keeping me

from doing all the time,” she said. The Dorseys’ typical Thanksgiving feast includes turkey, ham, macaroni and cheese, and several kinds of pies. But even if the kitchen had survived the storm, Arva Dorsey says it would have been too physically painful to spend three days preparing dinner as she normally does. George acknowledged that part of him wished

they were back in their house already. But he knew that he needed to let the foundation of the home dry out and take his time replacing what he had lost. “The main thing is, I’ve learned to calm down and wait patiently for what God has for me,” he said. “Just be hopeful, thankful, that you’re still here. Life still goes on even when we’re going through the storm.”

There are about 30 involved in the meal prepping phase, which begins at 7 a.m. and at least another 30 for the delivery shift, he said. The food prep shift starts at 7 a.m. and runs until 9 a.m. and the assembly shift works from 9 until 10:30 a.m. “We put together 1,000

meals in an hour and a half. That’s really moving them out,� said Thurner. The delivery shift begins at about 9:30 or 9:45 a.m. and will finish at about noon, he explained. While there may be many new faces among the crew, many have the look of veterans to the well-organized project. “Some of these folks are first timers, but by far a

and years ago. When we got older, we started working on this part,� said Albarracin. Seeing the good that is accomplished is one of the reasons the volunteer said he has continued the Thanksgiving meal delivery. He has seen everything from hunger to loneliness amongst the recipients of their annual program.

lives and don’t decide to take time for others,� said Smith. He added that the Thanksgiving meal project was a time to slow down do just that — focus on others. Smith and his family has been working with the project for five years and even getting a new generation involved. “This has just become a tradition now,� said Smith. Lilly Smith, 8, was toting around a box that was nearly bigger than she is. “We always do this. We get here and have coffee and deliver food ...� she said, while sporting a grin that is punctuated with a dimple. Jean and Eddy Bell have worked with the program for more years than they could name. “It’s a blessing to get to do this and to see these families. It means so much to them.

As 29 years of service can attest, the church’s Thanksgiving meal program appears to deliver much more than meals to both the recipients of the meals and the volunteers who made and brought them.

Oldman disappears in role of Winston Churchill BY JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer

TORONTO — It’s a long distance from Sid Vicious to Winston Churchill, and a greater leap, still, from Dracula to “Darkest Hour.” Gary Oldman, character-actor maverick, has taken up perhaps his biggest — and most buttoned-down — challenge. For even a veteran chameleon like Oldman who has a way of hiding in plain sight, the task of tackling such a heroic titan of 20th century history is a leap. If he can disappear behind just glasses (2011’s “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy”) or merely a mustache (1989’s “The Firm”), what feats of transformation can he accomplish with a pile of prosthetics and a heap of makeup? The answer is a swaggering, full-throated metamorphosis that has made Oldman the early favorite to win best actor at the Oscars. It’s a part that Oldman grants is a personal mountain peak. “It’s sort of like my Lear,” Oldman said in an interview over coffee. “And I don’t rule that out. There are some parts still

left in the ol’ boy.” An Academy Awards nomination would be only the second for the 59-year-old Oldman. (He was nominated for “Tinker Tailor.”) His shape-shifting career and preference for privacy has sometimes kept him out of the spotlight, even while his explosive ferocity (“Leon: The Professional,” ‘‘State of Grace,” ‘‘True Romance”) made him a thespian idol. That Oldman is an actor’s actor is fitting in the case of “Darkest Hour.” Director Joe Wright (“Atonement,” ‘‘Pride & Prejudice”) depicts Churchill as an actor, himself, who’s playing a part. With a Homberg hat and cigar as his costume, he rallies 1940 Britain against pacifism in the face of Adolf Hitler. Churchill, an unpopular figure when he became prime minister, is captured in private self-doubt and public grandeur, as he prods Parliament in famous speeches, like when he warned that with inaction Britain would “sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister”

“Our film is about oratory and how words can galvanize the people and move them and rally them. Even simple, direct Anglo-Saxon words,” says Oldman. “I felt it was refreshing because we’ve now got to a world where we communicate with emojis. If Churchill saw an emoji, I think he’d turn in his bloody grave.” “Darkest Hour” spans just 28 days, when Churchill is thrust into power and Germany is invading France. That Churchill has been so frequently played — among them Richard Burton, Albert Finney, Brian Cox and John Lithgow — gave Oldman pause, since they had, he says, “contaminated” his and our impression of the man. “I danced around it for a long time. I think I was afraid, to be honest with you,” says Oldman. “But at the end of the day I couldn’t give up saying those words. And what’s the worst that can happen? You stink. They’re not going to come arrest you or shoot you. I thought: Jump off the cliff and see what happens.” Wright says it took five

could take on Hitler, then I could sit in a makeup chair for three hours.” “Darkest Hour” isn’t particularly imbued with political relevance for today, though some might watch it pining for Churchill’s leadership. It was purposefully crafted, Oldman says, to place Churchill in his time, not ours. “What we do now, too often, there’s a lot revisionist history,” he says. “We tend to look at the past through the lens of the 21st century.” Oldman, himself, is no fan of political correctness. In a 2014 Playboy interview he criticized the hypocrisy of the outcry against Mel Gibson’s antiSematic tirade. Oldman said everyone is guilty of such slurs and he referred to Hollywood as “run by Jews.” Oldman apologized profusely, including on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” Oldman has previously struggled with alcohol addiction (he was charged with drunk driving in 1991) but now doesn’t drink. In August he married his fifth wife, Gisele Schmidt, an art curator. Asked if he has strong political beliefs, Oldman

replies: “I like to know what’s going on. But I’m not an opinion-maker and I’m not running for Congress. I pretty much keep to myself these days. We’ve all got opinions.” Oldman directed once before in 1997’s searing family drama “Nil By Mouth,” a film that drew heavily from Oldman’s own childhood growing up in working-class East London. (Oldman even wanted to cast his mother.) He plans to be directing again next year from a script not his own, “but the fit is good,” he says. In the meantime, Churchill still has a hold on him. He finds himself still mumbling some of the film’s lines around the house, like: “I don’t often do that,” which Churchill says after a rare sip of water (as opposed to brandy). “My reading of Churchill hasn’t stopped. He wrote 50 books and I’m told by scholars that there are 50 by others worth reading. I think I got to about seven,” says Oldman. “I love the footage you can find. I love being a detective. You become like an investigator.”

months to carefully calibrate the makeup and prosthetics: “Too much and you would lose Gary,” he says. Still, Oldman is only just visible underneath. “The greatest actors I’ve ever worked with have extraordinarily powerful imaginations,” says Wright. “That imagination Gary is able to project with this strength of power of will out of himself.” The hours of makeup meant Oldman often arrived on set at 3 a.m. His average day, he estimates, was 19 hours long. By the time the rest of the cast and crew arrived, Oldman was already in character. “Joe never saw me as Gary for three months,” says the actor. “If you’re going to do a part like this, you can’t go in kicking and screaming about the makeup. You’ve got to surrender to it,” Oldman says. “Maybe day 45 you come in, you’re sleep deprived and you’re a bit grumpy. But the fruits of it were such that I could put myself in a frame of mind. Once it was all in, I was in it. I had a ball. My thinking was that if at 65, Churchill

Woman is intimidated by friend WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I’ve been dating “Tim” for about a year. When we first started dating, I was intimidated by how pretty some of his female friends were, but that feeling faded when I got to know them. They’ve all been warm and welcoming — that is, except for one girl. I’ve always gotten a weird feeling from “Meg.” She hasn’t been mean exactly, but she’s always just been a bit standoffish. I can’t put my finger on what it is. She’s been perfectly polite and not obviously cold. But something makes me wonder whether she and Tim used to have a thing or she likes him now. Oddly, this didn’t start really bugging me until about a month ago, and I’m thinking that may be because Tim and I have been spending a little less time together. I’ve been really busy with work, and so has he, and our schedules don’t line up great. I’ve been afraid to bring this whole thing up with him. I don’t want to drive him away by acting jealous. Plus, he’s given me no reason to worry. He is very trusting of me and doesn’t mind that some of my best friends are guys.

Dear Annie He proudly introduces me to everyone as his girlfriend. And perhaps the ultimate sign of trust in this day and age: He never hesitates to let me use his laptop. Yet I still keep thinking about Meg and wondering whether the two of them text, and when he leaves the room, I’m tempted to look at his phone. I know; it’s bad! I haven’t given in to the temptation, but if this feeling keeps up, I’ll probably cave eventually. Am I being paranoid? How can I tell? — A Little Green Dear A Little Green: When you find yourself acting like a private investigator with your partner, redirect that magnifying glass to examine yourself and your relationship instead. I don’t think Meg is the problem. I think that you were having some anxiety about the relationship and that she’s what your mind latched on to. Still, because it’s been bothering you this much, it’s worth gently raising the topic with Tim.

Tell him you’ve always felt a little intimidated by Meg, and ask whether there was ever anything between them. He won’t get defensive if you present it as an earnest question and not as an accusation. Communication and trust go hand in hand, and if you can learn to speak openly and listen carefully to your partner, deeper trust will follow. Dear Annie: When you divorce your spouse, are you supposed to refer to your in-laws as “ex-inlaws,” as in “my ex-brother-in-law”? My neighbor says yes, but I thought my in-laws would always be my inlaws, even after a divorce. — Just Curious Dear Just Curious: In conversation, you can refer to them however you’d like. But your neighbor is correct: Legally speaking, your inlaws are no longer your in-laws after a divorce. It might feel less awkward to say “my ex-husband’s brother” than “my exbrother-in-law.” Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
