School board, presidential races highlight ballots BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
A leaner ballot awaits voters in 2012, with county school board and election commissioner races on the ballot beneath the fireworks of a presidential election year. But a lighter ballot doesn’t mean fewer voters. “We always have more people
to vote in a presidential election than in a county-wide, and it’s a different group of people,” said Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell. March brings the presidential and congressional primary elections, while school board and election commissioners will be on the Nov. 6 general election ballot. For the Alcorn School District
Board of Education, the third and fourth district seats, currently held by Carroll Morton and Mary Kathryn Coleman, respectively, are up for election this year. With the death this week of Peggy Bain, the second district will likely be added to the list for a special election to complete her term of office. Qualifying for school board
will begin on Aug. 8 and conclude on Sept. 7. Qualifying begins next week for county election commissioner and concludes on June 4. The March 13 presidential preference primary and congressional primary is generally a low-turnout election. The secretary of state’s office recently announced that the following
presidential candidates are expected to appear on the Republican ballot in Mississippi — Michelle Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, John Huntsman, Gary Johnson, Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. The congressional elections Please see ELECTION | 2A

Former attorney sentenced to federal prison for fraud BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
Former Booneville attorney Thomas Keenum has been sentenced to 22 months in federal prison for his role in a scheme to illegally obtain loans against a property he owned in Alcorn County. Keenum was sentenced by U.S. District Judge W. Allen Pepper Jr. to 22 months in prison during a brief hearing held in federal court in Green-
eville. He could have faced as much as 30 years in prison on the charge. The former attorney must report to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons on Feb. 27, 2012 to begin serving his sentence. He pleaded guilty in August 2010 to a single count of bank fraud. In his plea he admitted to falsifying title opinions on property he owned in Alcorn County in order to fraudulently obtain hundreds of thousands
of dollars of loans against the property. Keenum admitted he sought and obtained documents from other local attorneys indicating the property had no liens against it based on information he provided to the attorneys, when in fact he knew other loans were already in place against the property. The names of the attorneys who provided those title opinions have never been made public.
In June of 2011, Keenum was permanently disbarred from the practice of law by the Mississippi Supreme Court based on the recommendation of the Mississippi Bar Association after Keenum sought the permanent disbarrment. Keenum served in numerous key roles in Booneville and Prentiss County, including serving for numerous years as a member of and president of the Northeast Mississippi Commu-
nity College Board of Trustees. In August 2010, shortly before his sentencing, he requested his name be removed from the NEMCC football stadium. The college’s board granted the request and returned the facility to its original name of Tiger Stadium. Keenum announced his retirement and the closure of his Booneville law practice in January 2009, citing declining health.
Central claims state dance championship Playwright
honored by theater association
BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Alcorn Central struck gold again in the Big House. The Lady Bears strolled away with a second consecutive dance state championship in the Class 3A State Meet at the Mississippi Coliseum. AC defended its hip hop crown by edging runnerup Kossuth on Dec. 16 in the Big House. “The girls worked so hard,” said sponsor Candee Witt. “Their goal was to win because the group before them won last year.” Seven Lady Bears were taking their first steps in the dance field at the state event. “This group had to work harder because we had several that hadn’t danced before,” said Witt. “I’m really proud of them because they were willing to practice long hours to reach their goal.” Squads were allowed to compete no more than 2:20 minutes in the state event. Each team was judged on energy, difficulty, formation, technique, transition and synchronization. Central’s overall score was an 83.3. AC, competing in only its

The work of a local playwright has been recognized by the Mississippi Theatre Association. “The Absence of Silence” by 39-year-old Corinthian David Maxedon was named the second-place winner in the adult category of the MTA’s annual playwriting competition. Maxedon’s play focuses on a man who’s discovered himself at the stage of life where he’s not yet old, but not young anymore, either. In his late-thirties, the main character discovers a small community theatre and a passion for acting he never knew was there until he stepped onto the stage. “It’s kind of uncomfortable,” the playwright pointed out. “Had he found it earlier, maybe he would’ve been able to go

Man charged in string of burglaries BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
BETHEL SPRINGS, Tenn. — The McNairy County Sheriff’s Department arrested a 24-yearold Bethel Springs man on Thursday in connection with a string of burglaries across the county. Casey Redmon, of 164 Walker St. in Bethel, was arrested at his home and he confessed under questioning to the burglaries. He will be charged with four counts of burglary, vandalism, theft and criminal trespassing. Redmon will also be charged with felony possession of a firearm, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a Sch. I narcotic. Sheriff Guy Buck said his office had received information from a confidential informant that Redmon might be involved in the various thefts. When the officers went to his house to ques-

tion him, he admitted that he had committed the crimes. “We had an active search warrant on him and went to his house to conduct a search,” said Buck. “We found some items that connected him to the burglaries of the businesses.” A few of the places that had been robbed were Gray Bro. Tires, Selmer Hardware, Griswell’s Building Supply and Jerry Inman’s Cars. There also was a private shop on Masseyville Road broken into in Bethel Springs. Sheriff Buck said several of the things stolen had already been sold, but items like money bags and pocket knives from the businesses were recovered at Redmon’s home. Redmon is now in jail at the McNairy County Justice Complex. His arraignment will be held next week.
Final goodbye: A look back at some who died in 2011 Associated Press
ATLANTA — They lived by the sword, both inspiring fear and acts of bloodshed around the world. And in the end, they both suffered violent deaths befitting their fearsome reputations. Perhaps no two deaths in 2011 transfixed the world more than those of terrorist leader Osama bin Laden and Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi. Bin Laden became the most wanted man in the world after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that killed almost 3,000 people. Nearly a decade later, he was shot dead by U.S. commandos in May after being tracked to his hideout in Pakistan. His body was buried at sea. For Gadhafi, the end came after he was captured by rebels, his final moments shown in gruesome, shaky handheld video that was
seen across the globe. If relief and even celebration by many greeted their demise, the deaths of other notables in 2011 brought reflection on lives of achievement. The world of science and innovation lost Steve Jobs, the Apple founder who invented and marketed sleek gadgets that transformed everyday technology from the personal computer to the iPod, iPhone and iPad. Science also said goodbye this year to Christian J. Lambertson, Norman Ramsey, William Nunn Lipscomb, Jr., Boris Chertok and Ralph Steinman. Political figures who died in 2011 included R. Sargent Shriver, Warren M. Christopher, Jiri Dienstbier, Sultan bin AbdulAziz Al Saud, Geraldine Ferraro, Max van der Stoel, Nec-

In entertainment, the world lost Elizabeth Taylor, a woman whose sultry screen persona, stormy personal life and enduring fame made her one of the last of the classic movie stars. The year also saw the passing of soul singer Amy Winehouse, whose death at age 27 left many wondering what works of musical brilliance the world might have seen from the troubled, young star.

Terrorist leader whose money and preaching inspired the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. Killed during a raid by U.S. Navy
SEALs in Pakistan. ■ June 3 — Jack Kevorkian, 83. Defiant proponent of doctor-assisted suicide who said he oversaw the deaths of 130 gravely ill people. ■ June 3 — James Arness, 88. An actor who towered over the American television landscape for two decades as righteous Dodge City lawman Matt Dillon in “Gunsmoke.” ■ July 8 — Betty Ford, 93. The former U.S. first lady whose triumph over drug and alcohol addiction became a beacon of hope for addicts and the inspiration for her Betty Ford Center in California. ■ Sept. 10 — Cliff Robertson, 88. Actor who portrayed President John F. Kennedy in the film “PT-109” and won an Oscar for playing a mentally disabled man in “Charly.”

somewhere with it.” The conflict is introduced when the main character learns “out of the blue” that he has cancer of the throat. He faces two choices: Undergo surgery and lose his voice — and acting career — with a 95 percent chance of recovery; or opt for a less invasive treatment that will not obliterate his voice

and possibly allow him to continue acting. The catch in the second option is that this route carries only a 45 percent chance of survival, with the possibility of the cancer spreading to his lymph nodes and taking his life. The drama happens during the production of a simple murder mystery show, which will be the main character’s final performance if he opts for
the surgery. The nature of this final show adds another level of trouble to plot, Maxedon explained. “This is how it ends? Why not ‘Hamlet’ or ‘Macbeth’? It’s tearing him apart. He’s distraught,” said Maxedon. “But his friends remind him that things are not fair. People lose things, he may lose his opportunity to act — but he’s still alive.” When not penning dra-

New year makes us feel footloose, fancy free I’ve read that most folks make the same 10 meals again and again their whole lives long. So much of what we do is repetitious. We think the same thoughts over and over. We tend to make the same mistakes. We reach for the same old candy bars when we stand in the checkout line. Last Dec. 31st, my brother Dean sent a poem that I liked a lot. In it, he’s trying to capture what it feels like to stand at the brink of each new year. Dean sometimes goes a year or two without taking a single day off for vacation. He isn’t on
time for appointments; he is almost always early. He worries Ryland about his Bruhwiler family, his job, world Columnist politics. He works his conscientious way through convoluted articles on the economy and ecology and ethics . . . I understand why he loves the new year so. I adore the new year, too. I love the sense of last year’s life swept off the board, the way a croupier at a roulette

STOCKBRIDGE, Vt. — After hundreds of thousands of tons of rock were hauled out and tens of thousands of man-hours were spent, Vermont celebrated the completion of the biggest single engineering challenge following the flooding from the remnants of Hurricane Irene. Just in time for the new year, and four months after the storm hit, Route 107 between Bethel and Stockbridge was reopened Thursday. The state highway, a major east-west thoroughfare, is the last to reopen after being closed by flooding. The road’s reopening was marked with a ceremony at a Stockbridge school, where scores of local residents and state officials tossed fluorescent orange baseball caps into the air. “It will cut our commute time down, it will lessen our trauma of looking at all the damage and the moonscape,” said Stockbridge resident Melissa Thompson, who had to navigate a 70-minute detour to get her son to school and to get to work for the past few months. “We’ll probably miss all the flaggers (who) we got to know on the way.

In a new place with time on your hands and none to waste. I enjoy this sort of poem. It’s not greetingcard poetry with thudding rhythms and rhymes as obvious as moon and June and a nice little message tied up in a pretty red bow. No, this is the riddling kind of poetry. It’s suggestive, one word calling to another, the associations unfolding in your mind long after you’ve read it . “No world, no history, no stairs . . . ” What does that mean? He does not explain. But in my mind, the
telephone rings, the mail sweeps in and must be answered, bills paid, floors vacuumed, roof repaired. The weather comes and comes. The TV blares its bad news. “Stop, world. I want to get off!” We all know the feeling. And we know it cannot really happen. Even those who make radical choices to simplify their lives -- enter a monastery, join the army, run off and get married -- immediately step into another set of expectations, another game with rules that they must follow. Even a hobo who’s just run off from a hopeless situation and
hopped onto a passing train very quickly figures out essential steps for his survival. No one escapes. But when January the 1st rolls around, for just a bit -- perhaps two minutes, or two days or all of two weeks -- in our minds we feel footloose and fancy free. This time we’ll make bold choices. This time map out new trails. Before our time’s run out. Ryland Bruhwiler lives on a farm in McNairy County, Tenn.

Many people are still struggling to rebuild their homes and their lives. The state is just totaling up the bill, and the Legislature is preparing to deal with a variety of Irene-induced, long-term challenges. The repair of Route 107 posed one of the biggest tests following the storm that left a dozen towns cut off from the outside world for days, damaged or destroyed more than 500 miles of roads and 200 bridges, killed six and reshaped much of the lowlying countryside. Irene ripped up Vermont on Aug. 28. The downtowns of communities from Whitingham in southern Vermont to Waterbury, just west of Montpelier, were flooded to levels not seen since the state’s epic flood of 1927. Neale Lunderville, the state’s appointed chief recovery officer, said it would be years before many Vermont families are back to what he calls “a new normal.” “If we want to have a robust recovJ7NÂ<H;;Ã?DL;IJ?D= tqxÃ;:K97J?EDÃI7L?D=IÃFB7D
ery and one that brings us back to a place where we are stronger, smarter and safer than before Irene, we have to continue to remember what Irene did and what we need to do to recover from that,” Lunderville said. “It’s going to take a concerted effort and ongoing attention at high levels in order for us to have a really strong recovery.” The stretch of highway between Bethel and Stockbridge is one of the state’s major east-west arteries, and sections of the highway were part of the riverbank where the road and the White River pass through a narrow cut in the Green Mountains. Irene’s run through Vermont funneled record volumes of water through that narrow pass, where it tore riverbanks to pieces. “All of a sudden the road ended and then we were looking at river and mud and what used to be huge sheets of asphalt that had shifted into the river,” said Maine Army National Guard Capt. Norman Stickney, of Gardiner, who arrived five days after the storm. “It was like something fell from the sky and completely crushed all of the asphalt and scooped it away and dumped it into the river.”

People vote on words, not important issues The races for president and other national offices are going to be about spending to help the poor, welfare or entitlement spending depending on one’s point of view. But, voters will make decisions based on Daniel which candidates they like best Gardner rather than what candidates stand for. Columnist Those with liberal/progressive points of view will couch arguments in terms of “spending to help the poor.” Who could be against that? Americans are the most charitable people on earth according to Britain-based Charities Aid Foundation which released its worldwide survey a week ago. Americans have always been charitable. Consider Alexis de Tocqueville’s comments in the 1830s that unlike Europeans, Americans don’t wait for governments or noblemen to solve problems, but solve problems locally through community efforts. Americans still meet many needs locally when fires consume neighbors’ dwellings or someone is suffering catastrophic health problems and needs money to cover costs. But, somewhere along the way liberal/progressives (in both parties) decreed government should do that and raised our taxes to pay for programs engineered to help the “poor” with so-called safety nets. Well, many of those safety nets have evolved into boardwalks and super highways, and those who have become dependent on them largely believe the government owes them money and benefits. In fact, educators following Howard Zinn teach our children government is supposed to meet all of our needs, and not just those spelled out in the Constitution. Those with more conservative points of view argue in terms of welfare and entitlement spending. “Welfare” in particular is a toxic word. Polls conducted by the General Social Survey demonstrate the power of words in America. For example, since 1972 the polls indicate Americans by 2-to-1 believe too little is spent on the poor, on education, on health care, on drug treatment, etc. But, when asked whether too much is spent on “welfare,” Americans believe, 49.3 percent to 21 percent, that too much is spent on welfare, and nearly 75 percent of Americans believe “welfare” causes people to work less. Words matter. The dismal economy we and our European neighbors have been suffering through for the past three or four years has reminded us debt is not our friend. We have a national debt above $15 trillion and growing at a clip exceeding $1.3 trillion each year under President Obama. Don’t try this at home. Only professional politicians can do this safely … or not … with our money. Those who count such things have been telling us for years our entitlement programs — particularly Medicare -- are unsustainable, meaning programs’ continued growth will completely bankrupt America, some say as soon as five to ten years. Saying America is too big to fail, liberal/ progressives deny America can go bankrupt like Greece, Italy, Spain and a host of other democratic socialist nations in the Eurozone. Come November, these issues really won’t matter. People will vote for those who make the best campaign speeches and will vote against candidates covered with the most mud. 2012 elections will be decided on words not issues. (Daniel L.

Can America be taken back by Christians? Half a century ago, American children were schooled in Aesop’s fables. Among the more famous of these were “The Fox and the Grapes” and “The Tortoise and the Hare.” Particularly appropriate this Christmas season, and every Christmas lately, is Aesop’s fable of “The Dog in the Manger.” The tale is about a dog who decides to take a nap in the manger. When the ox, who has worked all day, comes back to eat some straw, the dog barks loudly, threatens to bite him and drives him from his manger. The lesson the fable teaches is that it is malicious and wicked to deny a fellow creature what you yourself do not want and cannot even enjoy. What brings the fable to mind is this year’s crop of Christmas-haters, whose numbers have grown since the days when it was only the village atheist or the ACLU pest who sought to kill Christmas. The problem with these folks is not simply that they detest Christmas and what it represents, but that they must do their best, or worst, to ensure Christians do not enjoy the season and holy day they love. As a Washington Times editorial relates, the number of anti-Christian bigots is growing, and their malevolence is out of the closet: “In Leesburg, Va., a Santa-suit-clad skeleton was nailed to a cross. ... In Santa Monica, atheists were
granted 18 of 21 plots in a public park allotted for holiday displays and ... erected signs Patrick mocking reBuchanan ligion. In the Wisconsin Columnist statehouse, a sign informs visitors, ‘Religion is but myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds.’ A video that has gone viral on YouTube shows denizens of Occupy D.C. spewing gratuitous hatred of a couple who dared to appropriate a small patch of McPherson Square to set up a living Nativity scene.” People who indulge in such conduct invariably claim to be champions of the First Amendment, exercising their right of free speech to maintain a separation of church and state. They are partly right. The First Amendment does protect what they are doing. But what they are doing is engaging in hate speech and anti-Christian bigotry. For what is the purpose of what they are about, if not to wound, offend, insult and mock fellow Americans celebrating the happiest day of their calendar year? Consider what this day means to a believing Christian. It is a time and a day set aside to celebrate the nativity, the birth of Christ, whom Christians believe to be the Son of God and their
Savior who gave his life on the cross to redeem mankind and open the gates of heaven. Even if a man disbelieves this, why would he interfere with or deny his fellow countrymen, three in four of whom still profess to be Christians, their right to celebrate in public this joyous occasion? This mockery and hatred of Christmas testifies not only to the character of those who engage in it, it says something as well about who is winning the culture war for the soul of America. Not long ago, the Supreme Court (1892) and three U.S. presidents -Woodrow Wilson, Harry Truman and Jimmy Carter -- all declared America to be a “Christian nation.” They did not mean that any particular denomination had been declared America’s national religion -- indeed, that was ruled out in the Constitution -- but that we were predominantly a Christian people. And so we were born. Around 1790, America was 99 percent Protestant, 1 percent Catholic, with a few thousands Jews. The Irish immigration from 1845 to 1850 brought hundreds of thousands more Catholics to America. The Great Wave of immigration from 1890 to 1920 brought millions of Southern and Eastern Europeans, mostly Catholic and Jews. As late as 1990, 85 percent of all Americans described themselves as
Christians. And here one must pose a question. How did America’s Christians allow themselves to be dispossessed of a country their fathers had built for them? How did America come to be a nation where not only have all Christian prayers, pageants, holidays and holy days been purged from all government schools and public institutions, but secularism has taken over those schools, while Christians are mocked at Christmas in ways that would be declared hate crimes were it done to other religious faiths or ethnic minorities? Was it a manifestation of tolerance and maturity, or pusillanimity, that Christians allowed themselves to be robbed of their inheritance to a point where Barack Obama could assert without contradiction that we Americans “do not consider ourselves to be a Christian nation?” What are these Christmas-bashers, though still a nominal minority, saying to Christians with their mockery and ridicule of the celebration of the birth of Christ? “This isn’t your country anymore. It is our country now.” The question for Christians is a simple one: Do they have what it takes to take America back? (Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”)
Saying good riddance to a bad year — 2011 Bad year, 2011, even though some bad guys and charlatans got a karma blast. Osama bin Laden got it up close and personal from a Navy SEAL, while his cohort al-Awlaki got drilled from the sky. Gadhafi went down, and al-Assad is tottering. Schwarzenegger, Weiner, Sheen and Cain all got hammered in the court of public opinion. Blagojevich, Bonds and Mubarak were held accountable in actual courts. Casey Anthony got away with killing her 2-year-old daughter. Amanda Knox finally beat the rap in Italy. And Kim Kardashian continued to be the poster girl for narcissism. Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, by all accounts a stellar human being, survived a brutal gun attack, but more than 20,000 Japanese did not survive the earthquake and tsunami that hit the country in March.

listed above happen every year. The primary reason that 2011 is not a year to remember Bill is focused O’Reilly around one The O’Reilly thing: conFactor folks tinue to get a bad deal. Most Americans work hard, are honest people and look out for their neighbors. They deserve prosperity and capitalism was set up to provide it. But with technology changing the way we live, the rules of capital engagement are changing, and the U.S. government has not acknowledged that. The unemployment rate is just below 9 percent. But if you have a college degree, the jobless rate is cut in half. If you are educated, you most likely will get a decent paying job. If you have a skill such as plumb-
ing, you’ll work as much as you want. But if you can’t write a sentence, speak like the Jersey Shore crew and/ or have a bad attitude in the workplace — you are up against it. In most situations, the employer is holding all the cards. Competition for jobs is intense and that drives wages down. The boss man can make demands and set a strict workplace regimen. If you are supporting a family, this is not the greatest scenario. So, the Occupy protestors are right about one thing: The American worker is on the defensive. President Obama wants you to believe that the feds can change all that and can right those private marketplace wrongs. That is bull. They can’t, and they are bankrupting the country with false hopes. Right now, only individuals can improve their own circumstances. Pinheads in Washington cannot help us. The most important thing

for a worker to understand is that you have to make yourself indispensable. You have to make your employer money or his life easier. Preferably both. Also, you have to learn as much as you can about your chosen endeavor. Again, if you can fix things, you will earn good money. If you can sell things, you will prosper. If you’re primarily interested in tattoos, you will suffer economically unless you’re a member of Green Day. In prosperous years, the marginal workers get by. In tough times, they get the shaft. Let’s all hope 2012 finally brings relief on the economic front. But don’t count on it. Make your own way and a happy new year will be far more likely to occur.

State Lawmakers face full agenda for 2012 session BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi legislators expect to handle several big issues during their fourmonth session that begins at noon on Tuesday. They’ll consider charter schools, to possibly allow more flexibility in academic offerings. They could debate changes to the Public Employees Retirement System, a politically sensitive topic that affects tens of thousands of people. They still need to handle legislative redistricting. Many Republicans want to limit fees for private lawyers who do contract work for the Democratic attorney general. And, some want to take another shot at immigration, an issue important to Republican Gov.-elect Phil Bryant. Republicans already control the Senate, and they’re taking over the House majority for the first time since Reconstruction. “It will be interesting, with the new House dynamic in place, to see how we can get some conservative issues at least debated and not assume they’re going to immediately die in committee because they have a different philosophy than we do,” said Sen. Joey Fillingane, R-Sumrall. He cited immigration, lawyers’ fees and charter schools as three previously stalled issues that could gain momentum with Republicans leading both chambers. An immigration bill that died in 2011 would have allowed law officers to check during traffic
stops whether people are in the country legally. Opponents said it could put additional, unfunded requirements on state troopers and sheriff’s deputies, and that it could open cities and counties to lawsuits. Bryant, who was backed by many tea party voters, said Mississippi needs to ensure that people from other countries have proper documentation to live and work in the United States. Private lawyer fess has been a top issue for some Republicans for years. Attorney General Jim Hood is the only Democrat in statewide office in Mississippi, and Republicans criticize him for hiring private lawyers to handle lawsuits for the state. Hood has said the lawyers are putting their own financial resources at stake in cases that could pay millions to the state. Critics say the lawyers often collect millions, and many give campaign contributions to Hood. Some lawmakers propose what they call a “sunshine act” to require more disclosure about the contracts, and to limit how much they could collect if a lawsuit is successful. Bryant has said for years that Mississippi should allow the widespread establishment of charter schools. They’re public schools but can set different operating hours or can try different academic approaches. Bryant often cites the KIPP Delta Public Schools in eastern Arkansas, which have longer school days than most schools and conduct classes two Saturdays a month. Republican Rep. Philip Gunn of Clinton, who’s
expected to become speaker of the House, said he favors changes to allow more competition in education, whether through charter schools or vouchers. “Charter schools are just one form of competition and I think everyone would agree we should look at that,” Gunn said. Many legislators say education funding is the most important agenda item in the 2012. “That’s the big, big picture so that our struggling school systems, especially those in the Delta and some of the poor districts, are not negatively impacted,” said Sen. Willie Simmons, DCleveland. The Joint Legislative Budget Committee released a proposal that includes neither an increase nor a decrease in funding for elementary and secondary schools for the fiscal year that begins July 1. Departing Gov. Haley Barbour said politicians’ commitment to education shouldn’t be based on how much public money they spend. He said people should instead look for the effectiveness of policy decisions. “The results we’re getting today are no better than they were 30 years ago if you compare us nationally,” Barbour said. “Our scores that we’re getting are higher than they were 30 years ago, but the national scores are higher, too, though neither one of them are very much higher. We’ve got to think about different ways to get done what we all want done.” Leaders from both parties say writing an overall state budget will
be challenging because money is tight, as it has been the past several years because of the lethargic economy. Redistricting carries over as unfinished business. Legislators are required to update the boundaries of their own districts each decade after the Census reveals how population has shifted. During the 2011 session, each chamber approved its own plan, but talks stalled when House and Senate leaders sparred over how to treat each other’s proposed maps. Democratic House Speaker Billy McCoy, D-Rienzi, said legislators should stick to the tradition of each chamber drawing its own map and rubber-stamping the map from the opposite chamber. Bryant, as lieutenant governor, said the Republicancontrolled Senate should have some say in the House map drawn by the Democratic-controlled House. The 2011 session ended with redistricting in limbo. Now, Republicans will control both chambers and some GOP House members, including Rep. Greg Snowden of Meridian, predict redistricting will be finished this session, with new maps that follow the Justice

Department mandate to maintain minority voting strength. “It should be easier simply with the fact that we’ve just gone through an election,” Snowden said. “Everybody in that room has been elected in their current district.” The Mississippi Public Employees Retirement System manages pension funds for 80,000 state and local government retirees and 167,000 active employees. Many say they oppose changes to PERS because they fear losing money. A study commission appointed by Barbour recommended several changes to bolster PERS’ finances, including a three-year freeze on the cost-of-living adjustment each of the system’s retirees receives. The COLA is typically referred to as a “13th check” because many retirees take it as a lump payment at the end of each calendar year. However, they have the option to receive the COLA each month. Now, the system’s retirees automatically receive a 3 percent annual increase as the COLA. Barbour said the actual cost of living has increased by less than 3 percent for each of the past few years, so PERS
beneficiaries were overpaid during that time. Barbour said a threeyear halt to the increases would save the system money; people would still receive the previous amount of COLA, just not an increase. The study group proposes that for upcoming retirees, the COLA be withheld for the first three years after they leave government service. “I don’t think that’s something the Legislature’s going to hang its hat on,” Rep. George Flaggs, D-Vicksburg, said of the recommendation to change the COLA. Many lawmakers will present issues that are of particular interest to the regions they represent. Those from south Mississippi, particularly along the coast, say the insurance market needs to be stabilized to help in the continuing recovery from Hurricane Katrina, which struck in 2005. “All of us in south Mississippi are interested in insurance rates,” said Sen.-elect Angela Burks Hill, R-Picayune. Simmons said an issue of particular importance in the Delta is the reopening of the Great River Road state park in Rosedale, which has been closed since the Mississippi River flooded several months ago.

2 dead, 61 hurt in 40-vehicle pileup BY JANET MCCONNAUGHEY Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Two men died and 61 other people were injured Thursday in a pre-dawn pileup involving about 40 cars, vans and other vehicles on a busy interstate that crosses New Orleans, closing the route for hours both ways, police said. Drivers said they drove into thick smoke or fog that abruptly limited visibility on westbound lanes of Interstate 10 heading across eastern New Orleans. Those who came upon the scene said they heard injured motorists pleading for assistance. “You just hear all kinds of calls and people screaming for help,” tow truck driver Wesley Ratcliff told local broadcaster WWLTV. In 13 years responding to wrecks, he added, “this is the worst I’ve ever seen it.” Officer Garry Flot, a police spokesman, would not talk about possible causes, including whether those may have included smoke or fog.
All lanes were reopened late Thursday afternoon as the investigation continued, letting commuters head home at rush hour. The highway is heavily trafficked, a major corridor for thousands of commuters who enter New Orleans each day from its eastern suburbs and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Those driving the route at the time of the wrecks said they suddenly found themselves in utter darkness, unable to see the lights of cars ahead. “I thought it was fog; my husband thought it was smoke,” Stacie Williams told WWL-TV. “Cars were driving in front of us and before you know it, it seemed as if they had dropped off the face of the Earth.” Seven people were taken to south Louisiana’s top trauma center, where several were in critical condition, said Marvin McGraw, spokesman for the Interim LSU Public Hospital. Flot said 25 people were taken to hospitals with injuries ranging from minor to critical. He said they
included a 62nd injured person — a firefighter whose face was cut while working at the scene. Flot said 37 others refused treatment for minor injuries. The police spokesman wouldn’t say whether police believe smoke or fog contributed to the wreck, noting the investigation is ongoing. He said the dead were a pickup truck driver and a 54-year-old passenger in another pickup, both from Louisiana. He wouldn’t say whether their pickup trucks were among the first vehicles to crash or part of the pileup that followed. Cars, tractor-trailers, vans and other vehicles collided on lanes approaching the city’s business district. Eastbound lanes were closed to let emergency vehicles get in, and traffic was detoured off the highway through morning rush hour and well into the afternoon. Interstate 10 stretches from Florida to California and is a major corridor for commercial truck traffic.
Police plan security at Times Square BY TOM HAYS Associated Press
NEW YORK — Less than two weeks after graduating from the New York City police academy, more than 1,500 rookie officers have a daunting first assignment: helping to protect Times Square on New Year’s Eve. The deployment is just one of an array of security measures — many visible, many not — that the New York Police Department rolls out each year for the event that turns the “Crossroads of the World” into a massive street party that stretches 17 blocks through the heart of Manhattan. Behind the scenes leading up to New Year’s Eve, city police officials meticulously map out how to control crowds that can swell to 1 million. The yearly ritual also means worrying about potential terror threats. “There will be several thousand police officers involved,” Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Thursday when asked about security. “I think we do this pretty well. We have a lot of experience in doing it.” Kelly said so far there are no specific threats against Times Square. But in the post-9/11 world, the department knows from experience — especially a botched attempted car bombing in the summer of 2010 — that Times Square is a potential terror target. Backed by the Pakistani
Taliban, Faisal Shahzad left a Nissan Pathfinder outfitted with a crude, homemade propane-andgasoline bomb on a block teeming with tourists. The explosive malfunctioned, but the near-miss spread a wave of fear across the city. Shahzad was arrested and, after a guilty plea, sentenced to life in prison. But he warned, “Brace yourselves, because the war with Muslims has just begun.” Since then, the NYPD has maintained a higher profile in Times Square, with mounted police and foot patrols outside hotels, restaurants and Broadway theaters. The department even elevated its neon “New York Police Dept.” sign on West 43rd Street several feet so it’s more visible. The usual security is bolstered each New Year’s Eve by an army of extra patrol officers who use police barriers to prevent overcrowding and for checkpoints to inspect vehicles, enforce a ban on alcohol and check handbags. Revelers will see bomb-sniffing dogs, heavily armed counter-terrorism teams and NYPD helicopters overhead. What won’t be as evident are the plainclothes officers assigned to blend into the crowd and other officers keeping watch from rooftops. Many officers will be wearing palm-size radiation detectors designed to give off a signal if they detect
evidence of a dirty bomb, an explosive intended to spread panic by creating a radioactive cloud. The bomb squad and another unit specializing in chemical and biological threats will sweep hotels, theaters, construction sites and parking garages. They will also patrol the sprawling Times Square subway station. The NYPD also will rely on a new network of about 3,000 closed-circuit security cameras carpeting the roughly 1.7 square miles south of Canal Street, the subway system and parts of midtown Manhattan. In recent years, police stationed at high-tech command centers in lower Manhattan began monitoring live feeds of Times Square, the World Trade Center and other sites. Times Square isn’t the only show in town this New Year’s Eve — or the only security concern. Police also will be beef up patrols in Central Park, site of a midnight run, and at fireworks displays at the Statue of Liberty. The NYPD harbor unit will keep an eye on 33 dinner cruises on the city’s waterways. Add to the list the Phish concert at Madison Square Garden. On a smaller scale in outlying neighborhoods, police are concerned about a phenomenon seen in past years: people who ring in the new year by firing guns into the air. “We urge people not to do that,” Kelly said.
Idaho man’s Museum of Clean ready to shine BY JESSIE L. BONNER Associated Press
POCATELLO, Idaho — Don Aslett may be more than a half century into his fight against dirt and clutter, but he still can’t take a stroll without bending to pick up litter from the sidewalk. As a child, he can remember cringing at the site of spilled coffee grounds and in high school, finding it strange the other boys didn’t like to clean their rooms. Even now at the age of 76, his battle against grit and grime has yet to relent. Those who may not understand his devotion, he reasons, have likely never felt the satisfaction of making a toilet bowl shine. “I’ll tell you, clean is a hard sell,” said Aslett, who has written 37 books on the topic and founded a janitorial business with branches in most states and Canada. While mothers may threaten their kids with having to clean their rooms as punishment, Aslett knew he was different from an early age. “I love to clean,” he said with a shrug. And now, he has a sixstory shrine dedicated to his craft — the Museum of Clean — that recently opened to the public in southeastern Idaho. Among the exhibits: A horse-drawn vacuum dating back to 1902; a collection of several hundred pre-electric vacuum cleaners; a Civil Warera operating table; a 1,600-year-old bronze pick that was used to clean teeth, and an antique Amish foot bath. If visitors grow weary while touring the building with its estimated 6,000 historical cleaning devices, they can take a seat on chairs fashioned out of garbage bins, a claw foot bathtub and a washing machine from
1945. There’s also an 88-seat theater, an art gallery, and a gift shop with cleaning kits for kids priced at $9.95 and plush toys in the shape of germs. Aslett’s most prized possession — a 2,000 year old terra cotta water vessel used by the Romans to wash up— is not quite ready for display and kept locked in a filing cabinet. The idea for the project came several years ago, when Aslett came upon an old pre-electric sweeper vacuum at a Detroit museum. “I thought, well there’s horse museums, cow museums, train museums, plane museums. Why not a clean museum?” Aslett said. He started his collection with an old pump vacuum he purchased for about $250 and tracked down more items at antique stores, while others were donated. He soon had enough for a display at his office in downtown Pocatello. “I found out something interesting, people are into cars and food and sports,” Aslett said. “Cleaning is way down on the list. But If you took something as dull as cleaning and made it humorous, then cleaning goes to the top.” Aslett started public speaking and writing cleaning handbooks with titles such as: “Is there Life after Housework?” and “Clutter’s Last Stand.” His personal monikers have included the Dean of Clean, the Sultan of Shine and, who could ever forget, Don Juan of the John. He was featured in People Magazine. He’s also been on Oprah. At one point, he started carrying a fiberglass toilet as a suitcase because he felt that was the symbol of his trade. He also enjoyed the suspense of his fellow travelers as they waited
by the baggage carousel to see who would claim it. As his cleaning business thrived, so did the cleaning tool collection. Things got serious when he found a Boston collector with 230 pre-electric vacuums he was willing to sell for $300,000. “After I got that collection, I found out that I needed a lot more room,” Aslett said. “I thought, if I’m going to do this, I’m going to leave a real legacy.” Over the years, as the museum missed several expected starts, but Aslett stood firm in his belief: “When you hear Pocatello, you’re going to think clean.” He was quick to dismiss a website survey this year that ranked Pocatello among the dirtiest cities in the United States based on online sales of cleaning products. “That’s like saying Pocatello has the most ugly women in the world because we buy the least makeup,” he said The museum, which took six years to assemble at a cost of about $6 million, marked its grand opening last month. Tickets cost $5 per person or $15 for a family. Inside, the history of clean begins to the right, with a giant model of Noah’s Ark, a reference to the worldwide cleaning of Biblical proportions. To the left are interactive exhibits aimed at teaching kids how to properly make their bed, clean their room, sweep and recycle. During a recent tour, Aslett stopped to clean a window display inside a children’s play area. His squeegee glided across glass in a quick flurry of sweeping strokes, like an artist painting a canvas. “That’s how the professionals do it,” Aslett said, leaning back to admire his work. He would know.

The Week Ahead
A last look at 2011 employment The Labor Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report on employment for December will show whether the job market is picking up momentum after three months of strong gains. The governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weekly reports on applications for unemployment benefits have been encouraging. That means fewer layoffs, and it might point to additional hiring. A solid number will likely send stocks sharply higher after the report comes out Friday.

The Institute for Supply Management is expected to report Tuesday that manufacturing grew at a faster pace for a second straight month in December. The trade groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manufacturing index mostly fell this year after hitting a high of 61.4 in February. It has risen since October. That reflected rising demand for homes, autos and retail sales. The question is whether manufacturing will grow enough to persuade employers to hire more workers.

Auto sales have risen sharply at the end of 2011 because of pentup demand for cars, attractive leasing deals and improving confidence in the economy. Sales results for December are due Wednesday. Look to see if car makers topped their sales in November, when they had their fastest pace since August 2009. November is normally slow because of cold weather and holiday distractions. U.S. sales would hit 13.6 million for 2011 if they had a repeat performance in December.

DEAR ABBY: My friend “Kayla” and I are 12 and in seventh grade. Recently, Kayla informed me that she has acquired a new boyfriend. I didn’t mind when she showed me all his lovey-dovey texts. I thought they were adorable. When I asked Kayla why her boyfriend didn’t sit with us at lunch, she laughed and said, “Oh, he doesn’t go to school here. He’s a junior in high school.” That’s why I’m writing. Kayla is telling me that she and “Jacob” are making out, and their texts are getting progressively worse. Plus, Kayla has said her parents are taking her and Jacob to a concert. The concert is out of town and they will be renting a hotel room. I’m worried for my friend. Am I incorrect for thinking this is wrong? -WORRIED FRIEND IN WASHINGTON STATE DEAR WORRIED FRIEND: I agree with you that at 12, Kayla is too young to have a 16-yearold boyfriend. That her parents give her enough
u n s u pervised time with him that they’re involved in makeout Abigail sessions is Van Buren also troubling. If Dear Abby this continues, Kayla could become pregnant and Jacob could be accused of statutory rape -- even if Kayla was a willing participant. Talk to your mother about what’s going on. She may want to chat with Kayla’s parents about this and mention the texts Jacob is sending their daughter. DEAR ABBY: I have a question that may seem odd, but I hope you can give me an answer. I know children can tell when a parent favors one sibling over another. What about cats? I adopted two cats -- not littermates -- from a shelter. While I love them both, one drives me crazy and the other is a sweet lovebug. Naturally, I prefer the sweet, cuddly one.
Can the kitty that drives me nuts tell that I prefer his “sister” over him? — LOVE ‘EM BOTH, REALLY, ALBANY, N.Y. DEAR LOVE ‘EM BOTH: While I’m more of a people expert than an animal behaviorist, let me share this. Cats and dogs, after thousands of years of living so closely with us humans, are indeed sensitive to human emotions. They can tell when we’re happy, when we are nervous and when we’re depressed. If you lavish affection and/or treats on one and not the other, it can create jealousy. You don’t know the history of the cats you adopted. It’s possible the one that makes you “crazy” had less human contact than “Lovebug” or was mistreated in some way. With patience and positive reinforcement he may come around, so don’t give up on him. DEAR ABBY: One of my brothers, “Carl,” walked away from our family 18 years ago. My parents are elderly and in poor health. When they pass, how do we refer to this
sibling in the obituary? -DRAWING A BLANK IN OHIO DEAR DRAWING A BLANK: The entire family history does not have to be revealed in the obituary. All it should say is, “Survivors include: daughter Wendy, (husband, if there is one) of Ohio; son George, (wife); and son Carl.” If you know where Carl is, include the information. If not, his name should be enough. DEAR READERS: The year is almost over. Am I the only one who can’t believe how fast it has gone? Incredible! From the bottom of my heart, I wish all of you a happy, healthy and prosperous 2012. If you plan on driving tonight, please don’t drink. And if you’ll be drinking tonight, please don’t drive. Stay safe, everyone! — LOVE, ABBY (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Mercury and Mars are at it again. People may say things they don’t mean. Or they may say what they really mean at the most inconvenient time and without regard to tact. Though calm sobriety isn’t what some people will choose for New Year’s Eve, it may be the best thing for keeping relationships in good stead. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Making a small difference is just as easy as making a huge one now. Choose the action that matters most to you, and you can’t help but affect many other people with what you do. TAURUS (April 20May 20). You’ll recognize a good thing immediately, and this instant recognition will give you an advantage. There will be an opportunity that will go to the one who is fast enough to snap it up. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll read others accurately. Even though you can sense what others feel, note that those feelings are always changing. Remember that you can always exert influence on the people around you if you want to. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re feeling open and ready to give your love. You’ll share sweet moments with those who have a direct line to your heart. It’s as though you saved the best for last.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your competitive spirit is strong. Whatever the game happens to be, you’ll feel as though you were meant to be the winner and nothing can get in the way of you taking home the gold. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You will continue to imagine someone dear to you as whole and healed. It’s not how the person is today, but you can envision a day in the near future when this will be the case. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll get your plan together. It’s best to write it down.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: In September of 1997, I ran into the great singer-songwriter John Denver in a restaurant in Austin, Texas, and asked him for an autograph. The only thing I had to write on in my purse was a deck of tarot cards. I pulled the 10 of cups, and Denver autographed it. Three weeks later came news of his tragic death. Seeing his name on the card -- figures waving to a rainbow in the sky over a body of water -- still sends chills through me. Happy birthday, sweet spirit!

N GOTTA HAVE ONE: People are flocking to Sears stores everywhere to get the brand-new Heat Surge HT. An eager crowd remained respectful as Jonas Miller
stages a promotional delivery event. “I heard so much about the Amish Miracle Heater but couldn’t find where to get one,” an excited Mary Straughn said. That’s why a National Appliance Hotline has been set up for today’s readers who can’t rush out to get one.

How It Works: You get 74º of bone-soothing room heat even when the home thermostat is turned down to 59º with the first-ever Heat Surge HT This is the revolutionary Heat Surge HT, the first-ever appliance with Hybrid-Thermic™ heat technology. Hybrid-Thermic heat technology is an engineering genius so advanced, it actually uses a micro-furnace from the Coast of China and a thermal heat exchanger to perform its miracles. The thermal heat exchanger acts like the rays of the sun to heat you, the kids, the pets and everything else. The micro-furnace then heats all the surrounding air. Together, this Hybrid-Thermic heat technology warms both you and the air around you, taking care of all the cold spots. In fact, it actually produces bone-soothing heat to help you feel good. This modern marvel uses L.E.D. technology and just a trickle of electricity and saves you money based on a U.S. average that says it uses only about 9¢ of electricity an hour on the standard setting, yet it produces up to an amazing 4,606 British Thermal Units (BTU’s) on the high setting. But here’s the big surprise. It’s not just a metal box that belongs in a basement. The Heat Surge HT is a showpiece in any room. That’s because it has the ambiance of a real fireplace, but it has no real flames. Its Fireless Flame® technology makes it safe to the touch. Room Temp Room Temp The portable Heat Surge HT with with comes installed in a genuine Heat Surge HT Regular Heat Amish-built wood cabinet made in the heartland of Ohio. They are hand-rubbed, stained, and varnished. When it arrives, all you do is just plug it in.

N MODERN MARVEL: The revolutionary Heat Surge HT micro-furnace fits in any room because it’s packed inside a small Amish-built cabinet that measures just 25" high, 18" wide, and 12" deep.
N ZONE HEATING SLASHES HEAT BILLS: Notice how the home thermostat is turned down to 59º. The left shows the Heat Surge Hybrid-Thermic ‘Miracle Heater’ blanketing the whole-room with 74º of warmth.
A Consumer Best Buy
An avalanche of unsolicited consumer reviews gives the company the reason to boast an overwhelming Consumer ‘Best Buy’ on the HeatReport.com website. Consumers should be aware of the fakes out there. This Hybrid-Thermic ‘Miracle Heater’ can never be found at Wal-Mart®, not at Lowe’s®, not at Home Depot®, and none of the Club Stores. “Accept no imitations. If it does not have the Heat Surge name on it, it is not real Amish and it is not Hybrid-Thermic™. I repeat, if it does not have the Heat Surge name on it, you are getting ripped off,” said Heat Surge Chief Compliance Officer, Bob Knowles. The Heat Surge has earned the coveted Underwriters Laboratories certification and is protected by a limited full year replacement or money back warranty and 30-day Satisfaction Guarantee.

(UMS) – Everyone hates high heat bills. But we’re all sick and tired of turning the thermostat down and freezing our buns off. That’s why Sears knew they had a home-run on their hands with the firstever low-cost appliance with HybridThermic™ heat technology. And no other heater anywhere has it. The brand-new portable L.E.D. Heat Surge HT sips so little energy, you can run it for a full 12-hour day or night for just about a buck. This modern marvel, hailed as the zone heating ‘Miracle Heater,’ caused such a frenzy at Sears stores, one shopper refused to leave until she got one. Since there were none in stock, store managers were forced to hand over the store’s only floor model, against store policy. So today, immediate action is being taken to give more people, more ways to get them. Beginning at 8:30 a.m., today’s readers are allowed to phone in or snag one online. Heat Surge even posted a 2-Day Double Coupon which has been reprinted on this page for today’s readers to use. By using this coupon, everyone who calls is being rewarded with $227. That makes this remarkable new home appliance a real steal at just $299. Since this is a Double Coupon Deal, it not only gives you an extraordinary discount, but also entitles you to free shipping and handling, totaling $227 off. So now everyone has a fair shot at getting one. “Folks are saving money everywhere by zone heating with the new Heat Surge HT,” said Kris Rumel, the company’s analyst tracking the impact Heat Surge is having on consumer heat bills. This a ll sta r ted when Sea rs wanted the world-famous ‘Amish Miracle Heater’ that everyone was asking for. The shy but now famous Amish craftsman said Sears made the most sense. “I’d reckon they’re the oldest and most trusted in the country,” one of the Amish craftsmen known as Melvin said. “We’ve been saving folks money, big money. And we know it because we’re hearin’ about it,” he said. “They know about our quality. No particle board, just real wood. Fullyassembled cabinets by our hands and we’re making them right here in the good ole USA,” Melvin said. Director of Technology David M a r ti n ex pla i ned , “ T he Heat Surge HT is a revolutionary appliance that can easily roll from room to room. But we didn’t want it to look like some metal box that just sits there. So we turned to our Amish craftsmen and now each one is made to look like a sleek, slim fireplace that has no real flames.” “ The peacef ul f licker of the ‘Fireless Flame’ is so beautiful, everyone thinks it’s real, but it’s totally safe to the touch. All you do is just plug it in,” Martin said. People from Maine to Mississippi and even Florida and Arizona are flocking to get them because they are finally able to give their central heat a rest during this long, frigid winter. According to the avalanche of consumer reviews, people absolutely swear by them, repeatedly saying, “it saves money,” “looks beautiful,” and “keeps you warm head to toe, floor to ceiling.” And the word is getting out. That’s why people are clamoring to get them. But Martin said right now the real problem is making sure the Amish craftsmen can keep up with the lingering winter rush. That’s why the Double Coupon expires in two days. So for readers hoping to get the new Heat Surge for themselves and take care of gifts for others, there is good news. You can use the 2-Day Double Coupon more than once. But there is a catch. You can only get away with it for the next two days from the date of today’s publication by calling the National Appliance Center at 1-800-618-8510. Then, when it arrives, you’ll be rushing to turn down that thermostat. Just plug it in, watch your heat bills hit rock bottom, and never be cold again. N

Effortless Lions fall to Calhoun City BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
BOONEVILLE -— Biggersville managed just 18 points in the second half and dropped a 60-49 decision to Calhoun City as a result in the final day of action at the Kiwanis Christmas Classic. The Lions ended the 2011 portion of their schedule at 11-4 following their second loss of the week. “This is the most upset I’ve been in several years,” said first-year Lion Head Coach Cliff Little. “The effort was as bad as I’ve ever seen and we
had no sense of pride.” Biggersville entered the week averaging nearly 76 points a game. The 49 points on Friday was their second lowest of the season, topped only by the 35 scored on the same court against Booneville on Nov. 15. “Our shot selection was terrible and we missed assignments on defense all night long,” said Little. “Our post players played scared and our guards didn’t attack the rim.” Tevin Watson was the only Lion in double figures with 11. After putting together
back-to-back 25-point games, Dexter Stafford managed just nine. Biggersville was just 6-of-21 from the charity stripe. “We didn’t do anything well,” said Little. ■ In late Thursday action, Biggersville split with Saltillo on the final day of action at the Baldwyn Rotary Tournament. Dexter Stafford’s 25 paced four Lions in twin digits as BHS claimed an 84-73 win behind a 44-point second half. Tyler Shelley and Dana Thompson combined for
25 points in the opener, but Saltillo claimed a 53-46 win. The Lady Tigers used a 20-8 advantage in the second quarter to take a 36-22 lead at the break. At the Alcorn Central Holiday Hoops Tournament, the Kossuth Lady Aggies rolled past Hardin County, Tenn., 51-29 to end the event at 2-1. Rachel Winters paced KHS (8-3) with 13 points and Parrish Tice added 11. Alan Wood’s club allowed just 40 points over its final Please see LIONS | 2B

Mississippi State players, including Darius Slay (47), Corey Broomfield (25), Marcus Green (32) and Louis Watson (20), celebrate after beating Wake Forest in the Music City Bowl Friday in Nashville, Tenn. Mississippi State won 23-17.
Sweet Music MSU reels off second straight bowl win The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Playing in the Southeastern Conference dimmed Mississippi State’s high expectations this year. With the two longest touchdown runs in the program’s bowl history, senior Vick Ballard gave the Bulldogs plenty to celebrate in capping the season. The game’s MVP ran for a career-high 180 yards, including TD runs of 60 and 72 yards, to lead Mississippi State over Wake Forest 23-17 Friday night in the Music City Bowl — the Bulldogs’ fifth straight bowl victory and second consecutive under coach Dan Mullen. “Getting a big win allows us to go celebrate this victory later on tonight,” Mul-
len said. Those high expectations were hurt by losses to SEC teams either ranked at the time or going into bowl season. Now the Bulldogs (7-6) have won consecutive bowls for only the second time and first since 1999-2000. Two of the Bulldogs’ losses came to LSU and Alabama, who will play in the BCS national title game on Jan. 9. Mullen said this win will propel the Bulldogs into the offseason, and their quest remains winning an SEC title. “In the Southeastern Conference, that next step is a huge step to go play for that championship,” Mullen said. “Look, the SEC West championship will be decided
at the national championship game this year, I guess. That’s the next step in this program, and that’s a big step for us. But I think the players coming in now can see there is that light at the end of the tunnel.” Mississippi State overcame four turnovers thanks to Ballard’s long TD runs and six sacks — its highest total since piling up seven in a win over Florida in 2000. “We thought they were going to bring the heat,” Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe said. “At times, we just didn’t’ protect as well as we could.” Please see MUSIC | 2B
Rutgers goes deep at Pinstripe Bowl The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Chas Dodd hit Brandon Coleman for an 86-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter and Jawan Jamison ran for two scores to lead Rutgers over Iowa State 27-13 in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankees Stadium on Friday. Jamison finished with 134 yards on 27 carries for the Scarlet Knights (9-4), who ran their bowl winning streak to five. Rutgers, which played in
one bowl game before 2005, is 5-1 in the postseason under coach Greg Schiano. Steele Jantz took over for Jared Barnett at quarterback in the second quarter and helped pull the Cyclones (6-7) within 20-13 on Jeff Woody’s 20-yard touchdown run with 10:00 left. After an exchange of punts left Rutgers deep in its own end, Dodd went deep to Coleman. The 6-foot-6 redshirt freshman went over 5-7 cor-
nerback Jeremy Reeves, then outran the corner to the end zone to make it 27-13 with 5:47 left. Iowa State jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the first quarter, with Zach Guyer kicking field goals of 40 and 46 yards on the Cyclones’ first two possessions.
Armed Forces Bowl BYU 24, Tulsa 21 Riley Nelson threw three
touchdown passes to Cody Hoffman, the last with 11 seconds left, and BYU beat Tulsa in the Armed Forces Bowl for another 10-win season. With no timeouts and the ball at the 2, the Cougars hurried up to the line. Nelson faked a spike that would have stopped the clock and instead threw to Hoffman in the end zone. Hoffman had eight catches for 122 yards. Please see BOWLS | 2B
Johnson’s 16 leads Dayton past Ole Miss The Associated Press
DAYTON, Ohio — Dayton returned from its Christmas break intent on playing good defense and rebounding. On a poor shooting night, it was the approach the Flyers needed. Dayton gave Mississipi few uncontested shots and rode the timely 3-point shooting of Chris Johnson to a 62-50 victory in the final nonconference game for both teams on Friday night. “Our main focus was defense,” said Dayton reserve Luke Fabrizius.“It was getting stops and getting rebounds.
“I don’t think we would have won a game like this in the beginning of the year because you can’t rely on your offense to win games. You’ve got to have defense, so we stuck together tonight and got it done defensively.” Fabrizius, a 6-foot-9 3-point specialist, was back on the court after missing three games. He had to play extended minutes after starter Josh Benson left the game in the first half with knee injury. Fabrizius had eight points and five rebounds, but it was a blocked shot midway through
the second half that launched Dayton (10-4) on its gameclinching run. Ole Miss forward Reginald Buckner was about to score when Fabrizius came from the side and swatted the shot to keep Dayton’s lead at 4740. Then the Rebels’ Dundrecous Nelson broke away for what looked like an easy two, but Dayton’s Johnson ran him down and blocked another would-be basket. Dayton began an 11-4 run a minute later to take control 58-45 with 3:38 left. The run was capped by a 3-pointer by
Fabrizius. “We won the game because of Luke in a lot of ways,” Dayton coach Archie Miller said. “Whether he makes shots or doesn’t make shots, he’s able to play 24 minutes.” Ole Miss (9-4) shot 38.8 percent from the field, including only 1 of 10 on 3-point attempts, and was only 11 of 21 from the free-throw line. The Rebels have lost three straight. “We’ve let a lot of teams come in here and shoot a very Please see REBELS | 2B

reach 10-win season CONTINUED FROM 1B
The Cougars (10-3) wrapped up their season of independence by winning 10 games for the fifth time in Bronco Mendenhall’s seven seasons as coach. G.J. Kinne threw three TD passes for Tulsa (8-5), including a 30-yarder to Bryan Burnham with 10:42 left for a 21-17 lead. BYU needed 12 plays to go 48 yards on its last drive. Nelson converted a fourth-and-9 with a 14-yard scramble and later ran 8 yards on third-and-5. Tulsa’s other four losses this season came against top-10 teams.
REBELS: Dayton wins rebound edge CONTINUED FROM 1B
high percentage from 3-point (range), but we did a better job tonight of at least going out there and challenging them,” Dayton’s Paul Williams said. “Even if we can’t block it, we at least try to scare them a little bit.” Dayton dominated Ole Miss 43-33 on the boards, led by seven apiece by Matt Kavanaugh and Williams. Rebels leading rebounder Murphy Holloway missed his first game of the season with a high ankle sprain. He is averaging 9.6 rebounds and 9.9 points for the Rebels. Offensively, the second half was a different story for Dayton. The Flyers shot only 27.5 percent in the first half, but benefitted from 13 offensive rebounds.
MUSIC: Ballard delivers big bowl effort CONTINUED FROM 1B
Wake Forest (6-7) snapped a two-game bowl winning streak. The Demon Deacons of the Atlantic Coast Conference now have lost both bowls against the SEC and finish the season having lost five of their last six games. Chris Relf started for the Bulldogs and played the whole game with Tyler Russell limited by a sprained knee. Relf ran for 64 yards and threw for 129 yards and a TD with two interceptions. Mullen said Russell would have played if something happened to Relf. The Demon Deacons, who held the ball for more than 35 minutes, tried to rally. They converted two fourth downs before Brandon Maye sacked Tanner Price for the
sixth time, forcing Wake Forest to kick a 46-yard field goal to pull within 23-17 with 3:27 left. Wake Forest forced Mississippi State to punt, getting the ball back with 2:15 to go. But Price threw incomplete on three straight passes, the last to Terrence Davis on fourthand-7 with 1:40 left. “All in all, we had our chances,” Grobe said. “We just didn’t take advantage of them.” That had Bulldogs fans clanking their cowbells and chanting “S-E-C, S-E-C” as Mississippi State ran out the clock. Ballard came just shy of Walter Packer’s school-record of 183 yards rushing in the 1974 Sun Bowl against North Carolina. The senior more than compensated for a first-quarter fumble that led to Wake Forest’s first TD and only lead.

Grizzlies net season’s first victory over Rockets The Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Zach Randolph led the Memphis Grizzlies in scoring, though coach Lionel Hollins wanted to talk about something else. “That’s the best defense I’ve seen Zach play since he’s been here,” Hollins said after Randolph’s 23 points led the Grizzlies to their first victory of the season, 113-93 over the Houston Rockets on Friday night. Marc Gasol, who was 6 of 8 from the field, added 20, as the Grizzlies had six players in dou-
ble figures. Randolph shot 11 of 14 and grabbed nine rebounds. Gasol and Rudy Gay, who finished with 10 points, each had eight boards as Memphis outrebounded the Rockets 42-33. “Any time you have Randolph and Gasol go 17 of 22, you are going to have major issues,” Rockets coach Kevin McHale said. Randolph, who doesn’t have a reputation as a strong defender, was part of a Grizzlies front line that held Houston starters Chase Budinger, Luis Scola
and Jordan Hill to a total of 17 points, 11 from Budinger. While Randolph didn’t necessarily agree with Hollins’ assessment of the defensive effort being his best, he did acknowledge trying to concentrate more on that end of the floor. “That’s what I’m trying to focus on, just better D, helping my guys out and being in the right position,” Randolph said, adding, “Defense wins games. I know I can score with the best of them, and rebound with the best of them. (Working) on de-
fense there’s going to be a trickle-down effect, and everybody gets to playing defense and moving their feet and helping each other out.” Jeremy Pargo, starting in place of injured Memphis point guard Mike Conley, finished with 14 points, while Quincy Pondexter, picked up in a preseason trade with New Orleans, had 13. Kevin Martin led the Rockets with 21 points, while Kyle Lowry had 15 points and eight assists.
