Journey of a thousand miles Tanzania bishop undergoes heart procedure at MRHC BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Many people don’t mind traveling a few extra miles for good health care, but Bishop Peter Kitula of Tanzania journeyed thousands of miles for a heart procedure in Corinth. Released from Magnolia Regional Health Center on Wednesday, Kitula is bishop of the Mara and Ukerewe Diocese of the Africa Inland Church of Tanzania. As he prepared to leave the hospital, Kitula told of meeting Magnolia’s Dr. Max Hutchinson when the doctor participated in mission
work in Tanzania. He was pleased with the compassion the doctor showed the local people. “We were very impressed by the way he talked to the people and encouraged the people,” said Kitula. His diocese hosts an annual pastors conference at which Hutchinson’s brother was asked to speak. Hutchinson also attended and was asked to do some work in the church-sponsored clinics. He spent a day meeting with pastors and their wives for any health concerns they had. “We treated a lot of pa-
tients with hypertension and heart problems,” the doctor recalled. He learned of Kitula’s heart problem during that visit. The bishop was doing well, but he developed shortness of breath this fall and contacted Hutchinson, who referred Kitula to a doctor in Africa. Kitula had a catheterization performed in Kenya but learned he needed a coronary bypass. After some discussion with the leadership at Magnolia, Hutchinson was able to offer to do the procedure in Corinth. Kitula’s son and daughter-in-law, who live in
Washington, D.C., arranged a flight for him to Memphis, and the procedure was performed last week. “The case turned out to be a little bit more complicated than we thought,” said Hutchinson. “We had found out that he is diabetic, which he did not know. He also has some kidney problems which we didn’t know about. And he had a fairly extensive amount of damage to his heart that causes an impairment in the function of the heart. In addition to the coronary bypass, we had to Please see BYPASS | 2

Middle School Poetry Project Kossuth seventh-graders taught different slant BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
KOSSUTH — Students got to see a different angle when it comes to poetry. On Friday, the Kossuth Middle School seventh-graders get to show what they learned. The seventh-grade reading classes of Wendy Kelly were treated to a poetry reading by Autry Davis, a member of the Crossroads Poetry Project, as part of their month-long study of poetry. Students are set to put the lesson in action with their own reading on Friday at KMS. Peyton Mitchell was one seventh-grader paying close attention. “You have to show a lot of emotion ... don’t be afraid to read the poem like it is written,” said Mitchell after listening to Davis. Mitchell, who has selected “Duck Hunting” by Dwayne Bailey for his reading, plans on dressing the part with decoys and waders on Friday. “I won’t just go up there and read it,” said Mitchell. “I will be the person in the poem.” Staff photo by Steve Beavers

Cancer clinic case delayed BY HOLBROOK MOHR Associated Press
JACKSON — A federal judge has granted a request to delay the trial of a doctor and two employees charged in an alleged scheme to dilute cancer
drugs and use old syringes on multiple patients. Dr. Meera Sachdeva, Brittany McCoskey and Monica Weeks had been scheduled for trial Feb. 7. U.S. District Judge Dan Jordan signed an order
last week pushing the trial back to May 2. All three have pleaded not guilty. The women’s attorneys wanted more time to review thousands Please see CASE | 3
RACER: Bryant races in three different divisions CONTINUED FROM 1
drivers from around the country for a shot at becoming the 2012 Pro Kart Tour Champion. “I feel like he’s ready to race the best in the nation — he’s ready to beat them,� said his father. The young dirt-track kart racer has already racked up victories at the Talladega Short Track (across the street from the NASCAR track) and the Starkville Shootout. Last Thanksgiving the Kossuth sixth-grader finished second at the O’Reilly Indoor National Championship in Batesville after he was nudged out of first place in the race’s final lap. Beginning with the South Carolina Pro Kart race in late February, Bryant will compete in races across the Southeast and Midwest, one every other weekend. The season will wrap up with the 2012 O’Reilly Indoor National Championship on Thanksgiving weekend. He races in three different divisions — separated by different kart sizes and weights — during each race night. The races begin with a three-lap qualifying followed by a 20- to
25-lap feature race in each division. The karts may be smaller than their professional counterparts, but the competition is just as fierce, Bryant’s father explained. “In the qualifying the first through tenth place drivers are usually separated by less than a tenth of a second,� Jonathan said. “It’s one of the most competitive sports I’ve ever seen in my life. It takes a lot of skill.� Although a relative newcomer, Bryant is already showing promise in the world of kart racing. “Obviously, I’m proud of my son,� said his father. “At the racetrack a lot of guys who have been around a long time say Bryant’s a really good driver. He’s a consistently smooth driver, and will do three or four laps turning an identical lap time: It’s like he’s on a rail.� Jonathan said his son races against kids with much more experience, especially in the Pro Kart National Tour (“the best of the best�), and Bryant is holding his own, showing a level of skill more common to a driver with twice the experience.
Bryant plans to one day move up to the big league — NASCAR. “That’s what he says he’s going to do,� said Jonathan. “A lot of the top NASCAR guys, like Trevor Bayne, got their start with go-karts.� Trevor Bayne drives in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series and Nationwide Series. He started out racing go-karts as a kid, and in 2011 became the youngest driver to win the Daytona 500 — at the age of 20 years and one day. Bryant’s NASCAR dreams became more vivid during a recent family trip to Alabama, where the young kart racer had the opportunity to tour the Talladega Superspeedway. After seeing the legendary racetrack, Bryant’s thoughts turned to the future. “This is what it’ll look like when I drive here one day,� he said. Bryant’s kart is a 2012 Phantom Triton chassis with a bolted on Briggs and Stratton engine. The kart reaches speeds in excess of 70 mph. He is sponsored by Modern Woodmen Fraternal Financial.

POETRY: Davis does not expect sudden change CONTINUED FROM 1
That’s how Davis wants all to look at poetry. “I want them to see a kind of different slant,� said Davis. “That it can be more than they are used to hearing.� Davis says he was much like kids today when he was introduced to poetry. “I would find the short-
est poem I could find and learn it two days before,� he said with a laugh. That all changed for the actor after reading William Shakespeare. “When I figured out what he was saying, I did Shakespeare in a way I could understand it,� he said. “I want people to look at poetry in a second tone ... beneath those words is more meaning.�

Green Market, Chili Cook-Off set Events will be held together on April 7 Staff Reports
(Editor’s Note: The date for the opening weekend of Green Market and Chili Cook-Off was incorrectly run in a previous story. The correct date and other information is being reprinted.) The first weekend of April is going to be a busy one around the Corinth Depot. Green Market and the 5th Annual Crossroads Chili Cook-Off are set to have things hopping on April 7. Both events are slated for 5-8 p.m. in downtown. Event organizers are encouraging local participation in the 5th Annual Crossroads Chili CookOff. “We want to extend an invitation to all local businesses and restaurants to bring out a pot of chili and enter the Local Favorite category,” said event organizer Steve Knight. Civic clubs, school
groups and churches are also encouraged to participate in the Local Favorite category, in which local chili enthusiasts will compete for prize money and trophies. Registration is $25. The Crossroads Chili Cook-Off will also host a sanctioned International Chili Society competition, which promises to draw approximately 30 chili-cooking teams from around the region. The ICS is a non-profit organization that sanctions chili cookoffs around the world for the benefit of charities and other nonprofit organizations. The ICS sanctioned competition will feature three categories — Red (traditional red chili), Chili Verde (green chili) and Salsa. There will also be a People’s Choice competition which allows the general public to sample and vote for its favorite chili. Registration for the Crossroads Chili CookOff will continue until 9 a.m. on the day of the event. Participants are encouraged to register early to reserve a space.
Organizers will soon post more information on the event’s website. Several changes are in store for the Green Market’s fourth season, said Program Director Karen Beth Martin. “We’ve taken away the radius requirement,” said Martin. “Anyone from anywhere can participate.” Martin said the change was prompted by the success of the RED Green Market, which lifted the requirement that vendors could only come from within a 50-mile radius of Corinth. Another move to encourage participation from non-local vendors is the addition of the PayPal payment option, which allows registration fees to be paid online. Vendors may also pay fees with cash or checks, by mail or in person. The season’s first Green Market will feature musical entertainment and a wide variety of foods available for purchase. Green Market items — including T-shirts, reusable shopping bags and Green Market brand coffee
— will be available at the Green Market booth. Martin said the level of interest in the popular event has increased considerably and she has received many calls and emails from people seeking information. Vendors can sign up two ways — $60 for the whole season or $10 for each specific event. The $60 season sign-up does not include the holiday themed RED Green Market in November. Registration fees should be paid by 10 a.m. on the Friday before Green Market. Late registering vendors will be charged an additional $5 late fee. Vendors planning to sell baked goods should call Martin at the Tourism Office for Health Department guidelines. For more information about Green Market contact the Tourism Office at 662-287-8300 or send an email to karenbeth@corinth.net. Information about the Chili Cook-Off can be obtained by also calling the Tourism Office or by emailing Steve Knight at sknight@ xroadsfest.com

CASE: Authorities said old needles were used on multiple patients CONTINUED FROM 2
of pages of information related to the case. Sachdeva, founder of Rose Cancer Center in Summit, has been held without bond since August on charges of diluting drugs and billing Medicaid and Medicare for more chemotherapy than patients were given. McCoskey and Weeks are free on bond. Sachdeva was ordered held without bond after prosecutors argued that she could flee the country. She is a naturalized U.S. citizen from India. Prosecutors said she often traveled over-
seas and has considerable assets, including bank accounts, in her native country, despite the seizure of about $6 million. The Mississippi Health Department closed the Rose Cancer Center in July 2011 because of “unsafe infection control practices” and has tested hundreds of patients for HIV and other diseases because of concerns about dirty needles after 11 patients went to hospitals with the same bacterial infection. Federal and state authorities have said old needles were used on multiple patients, but a civil lawsuit

contained the first public allegation filed in court that someone contracted a disease like HIV. That lawsuit claims James Ralph Patterson Sr. went to the clinic for treatment of his brain and lung cancer but ended up getting watered-down drugs and was infected with HIV by an old needle. Patterson died July 3 at the age of 61. The lawsuit is filed on behalf of Patterson’s son, and it’s is one of several
suits filed in Pike County Circuit Court by Jackson attorneys John Giddens and Philip Thomas. Sachdeva established the clinic in south Mississippi in 2005 and billed Medicaid and Medicare for about $15.1 million during the alleged scheme. Prosecutors say Sachdeva gave patients less chemotherapy or cheaper drugs than they were told, while billing Medicaid and Medicare for more.

Belk Charity Sale raises millions for nonprofits Special to the Daily Corinthian
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Belk, Inc. recently announced its fall Charity Sale raised over $5 million for more than 7,700 participating nonprofits throughout Belk’s 16-state market area. The semiannual Belk Charity Sale provides opportunities for local nonprofit organizations to sell $5 tickets to supporters and keep all revenues from ticket sales. Ticket purchasers receive deep store discounts on purchases throughout the store during the special sale hours. “This fall’s Charity Sale proved to be a great success and the money raised for these very deserving schools and organizations show how our communities embrace the spirit of
giving,” said Tim Belk, chairman and CEO of Belk Inc. In 2011, the Charity Sale assisted nonprofits such as the Disabled American Veterans, Easter Seals, Visually Impaired People, Regional Junior League Associations, Boy & Girl Scouts of America, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, American Red Cross, The United Way, animal rescue organizations, local school athletic and scholastic organizations and local churches. Belk’s spring Charity Sale, held April 16, also raised more than $5 million for charities, bringing the 2011 total for both events to more than $10 million. Belk’s next Charity Sale is slated for April 21. All 501(c)3 nonprofits are invited to participate.

Is Mississippi ready for education lottery? Is Mississippi ready to gamble with its future? The Legislature will decide, but maybe it’s time to give the matter serious thought. Forty-three states and Washington, D.C., currently have state lotteries, and more than 20 of those states earmark lottery profits for education. Sen. Kelvin Butler, D-Magnolia, wants a state lottery on the table again in Mississippi. Though plenty of states report receiving less-than-expected revenue from a lottery, some is usually better than none when it comes to money. Butler’s plan proposes using the lottery money to fund college tuition for all Mississippi students who graduate from high school with a 3.0 GPA or higher. Specifically earmarking these funds is a smart idea. Giving the money directly to top students who seek to further their educations may have a more immediate impact than simply padding the general education fund slightly. Education is our future, but funding for education has been hard to come by in Mississippi for years. We don’t like the idea of encouraging gambling, but if we don’t find new revenues for our students, aren’t we gambling anyway? — The Natchez Democrat
Cutting health budget more is irresponsible Officials at the Mississippi Department of Health are stunned by a proposed slashing of its state funding to $20.7 million — the lowest level it has seen since 1990, when it received $20.3 million. As State Health Officer Dr. Mary Currier said, if the department doesn’t receive $30 million, services will have to be cut. “The number of Mississippians we serve is 2.9 million — the entire population,” Currier said. As The Clarion-Ledger reported, in fiscal 2010, the department received about $29 million in state funding — less than a tenth of the $325 million that Alabama has for its state public health budget. Only Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota and South Dakota spend less on their public health budgets. All have smaller populations. Yet, Mississippi ranks: — First in the nation for adult obesity, teen birth rate and infant mortality; — Second for hypertension; and — Third for diabetes and cancer death. One would think that this dismal ranking in health statistics would beg for more funds to help improve citizens’ health. Already cut to the bone, for many Mississippians, budget reductions to this minuscule (by U.S. and even Southeastern standards) budget is life or death. For example, the Ryan White AIDS Drug Assistance Program cannot be cut without jeopardizing lives. As the 1997 series AIDS Hope: Mississippi’s Despair by The Clarion-Ledger demonstrated, that program serves hundreds who would die without assistance in buying lifesaving drugs to treat AIDS/HIV. That alone is $6 million of the budget. Where else can the state cut? Food safety? As The Clarion-Ledger’s 2006 series Public Health: Protect or Neglect? revealed, under former Director Brian Amy, officials refused to close down restaurants that repeatedly failed safety inspections. Is that what lawmakers want? It’s the duty of the department to warn citizens about potential diseases and be able to respond in an emergency. Should these functions be cut? Or, fighting infant mortality? Addressing syphilis? Should it fire nurses? Stop monitoring for potential epidemics? Having a cost-cutting zeal is one thing, but there are few areas in the state budget where cutting can do more harm to the most people.

Alcoholic beverage taxes generated $71 million, but $8.6 million went to county and municipal government, leaving $63 million or 1 percent of general fund revenues for the state. Some $419 million in petroleum taxes are diverted to special funds, primarily to the Miss. Department of Transportation. All other taxes produce $145 million or 3 percent of general fund revenues. Mississippians rank 33rd in state taxes paid, according to U.S. Census data. Interestingly, despite the belief that Mississippi’s revenue won’t return to Fiscal Year 2007 levels until FY 2015 or FY 2016, the state’s general sales tax collections increased 1.8 percent from the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2011. Over the same period, in-
dividual income tax collections were up 5.3 percent and corporate income tax collections were up 3.6 percent. Oil and gas severance taxes were up a robust 25.5 percent in the state over that same period. That’s the good news. The bad news is that those increases substantially trailed the national average increase in each category for the same period. Most troubling for state lawmakers is the fact that other than the possible exception of congressional action that would enable states to pursue collecting existing sales taxes from online sales, there is no sentiment for new revenues in the new Republican-controlled Legislature. What is most encouraging is that existing sales taxes are trending ever-so-slightly toward higher collections. Sid Salter is a syndicated columnist.

by their “unique personal chemistry, which traced back to their childhoods.” Both were raised by distant or abusive stepfathers and surrounded by strong women. Both were drawn to politics and wanted to serve, in Newt’s case on a vast, civilizational scale. Both were allegedly sleeping around on the campaign trail before they had won anything. Yet their personalities are different. Growing up in an alcoholic household, Gillon notes, Clinton was a natural conciliator. Gingrich was given to defiance. Clinton was gregarious, a peoplepleaser. Gingrich was bookish, a lecturer at heart. Clinton made his way in politics in the unfriendly territory of Arkansas; he had to dodge and weave and seduce. Gingrich climbed through the ranks of the House Republican conference; he stood out as a partisan provocateur. And so he remains today. He utterly lacks the Clinton soft touch. No one will ever consider him a lovable rogue.

believe he’s the most electable candidate, even though the three recent national polls show him with a favorable rating in the 20s. Presidents dip that low after they lose a war or before they get impeached. Newt Gingrich starts out there. Could he turn it around with smashing debate performances against President Barack Obama in the fall? Doubtful. In a presidential debate, a candidate’s bearing matters. Al Gore may have beaten George W. Bush on points in their first debate in 2000, but he audibly sighed. That small indicator of an arrogant impatience sank him. If Gingrich shows the slightest bombast or ill temper, if he hectors or gives off a sense of intellectual superiority — in short, if he conducts himself in a typical Gingrichian manner — he will lose the debates in a rout even if he bests President Obama on the merits. It’s another reason why wily old Bill Clinton has to be pulling for his Republican alter ego. Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.

State Bryant unveils policy details in State of State BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Republican Gov. Phil Bryant used his first State of the State address Tuesday evening to unveil detailed policy proposals, from education to health care to energy, saying he wants to create a “Mississippi Works Agenda.” “My first job is to make sure every Mississippian has a job,” Bryant said on the south steps of the state Capitol, using the platform that was built for his inauguration two weeks ago. The Jan. 10 inaugural ceremonies moved inside the House chamber because of rain. “To the taxpayers who are here today, let me express my humble appreciation,” Bryant told an estimated 400 to 500 people on the Capitol grounds and a statewide television audience. “You are the sovereigns of this government, and we here are your servants.” Bryant called for development of charter schools and advocated performance pay for teachers based on student achievement. He said the state should encourage dual enrollment for high school students who might be at risk of dropping out of school, allowing them to learn vocational skills at community colleges. “We will work to give these young adults a marketable skill and help them find jobs,” Bryant said. “I will ask the state
“My first job is to make sure every Mississippian has a job.” Gov. Phil Bryant Department of Education, the community colleges and the Mississippi Department of Employment Security to come together to implement this program. We should set an enrollment goal and get to work, so Mississippians can go to work.” On health care, Bryant proposed capping income tax for physicians in under-served areas and providing economic incentives to spur development of medical facilities. On energy, he advocated offshore drilling for natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico and said he wants to begin converting state government’s fleet of vehicles to cars and trucks powered by natural gas. Bryant said he’ll ask lawmakers to approve $31 million in job-creation in-
centives this year, though he didn’t name specific projects. “Economic development is the sun in our universe and everything revolves around it,” Bryant said. In a televised Democratic response, Rep. Bobby Moak of Bogue Chitto said it’s time for elected officials to “stop grandstanding” about budgets and passing expenses down to local governments. He also said education should be a budget priority. “We believe in our K-12 programs, community colleges and universities,” Moak said. “That’s why Democrats in the Legislature will not turn their backs on public education.” Republicans control both chambers of the Legislature. Bryant said he’s asking the Department of Human Services to develop a plan to reduce Mississippi’s teenage pregnancy rate, long one of the highest in the nation. He also asked lawmakers to pass a Republican-sponsored

bill called the “Child Protection Act,” which would require health care providers, clergy members and educators to report suspected cases of child sexual abuse and would require anyone performing an abortion on a girl 14 or younger to keep samples of fetal tissue so DNA tests could be run to check whether the underage girl was impregnated by an adult. “This will be the first step in identifying the predators who take underage girls to an abortion clinic to hide their crimes,” Bryant said. He said there’s no reason for Mississippi to be the most obese state in the nation, and he urged people to take responsibility for their own wellbeing. “Mississippians, walk, run, go to the gym, plant a garden or ride a bike,” he said. “Getting active is key to your own health care and I again intend to lead by example.” Bryant, a runner, said he plans to sponsor a 5K run this summer, beginning at the Governor’s
Mansion in downtown Jackson. He encouraged parents to seek help for dyslexic children using existing state programs. “As a child, I struggled with dyslexia and believed I was a failure until the fourth grade,” Bryant said. “I then had a wonderful teacher, Mrs. Henley, explain to me I simply did not see the letters on the page like other children. I had to practice my reading and work hard to keep up, but I had a desire to succeed. I did what was expected of me and soon began to see the world of the written word, and in doing so, learned to love reading.” Bryant briefly mentioned two topics he frequently discussed during the 2011 campaign — abortion and immigration. He last year supported a “personhood” ballot initiative that would’ve declared life begins at fertilization, which was aimed at eventually eliminating abortion. The initiative was defeated amid concerns that it could limit the use of in-vitro fertil-

ization. “Please rest assured that I also have not abandoned my hope of making Mississippi abortionfree,” Bryant said. “I continue to believe that every life begins at conception and that every child should have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Bryant in the past has supported Arizona-style proposals that would allow law enforcement officers to check people’s immigration status during encounters such as traffic stops. A bill that would’ve done that died in 2011 when the Mississippi House and Senate couldn’t agree on details. “I strongly believe that we are a nation of laws rather than of men and that people who illegally cross our border, violating our federal laws, cannot be ignored,” Bryant said. “It is not only the state’s right but responsibility to determine if these violators are among our general population, particularly when they have also violated the criminal statutes of Mississippi.”

Giffords resigns House seat BY DONNA CASSATA Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a House occasionally known for untoward exits, Rep. Gabrielle Giffords stood among cheering, crying colleagues to say goodbye Wednesday, over a year after she was gravely wounded by a would-be assassin. Giffords had come to the well of the chamber to resign, a formality since she’d signaled her intention earlier, as she recovers from a gunshot wound to the head during a shooting rampage in her home district in Arizona. It was one of the longer House goodbyes in recent times, as Democrats and Republicans lined up to see her off. A prolonged standing ovation followed a fusion of tributes and tears as colleagues praised her dignity and perseverance. Surrounded by friends and colleagues and holding Rep. Jeff Flake’s hand, Giffords heard her close
friend, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, read her resignation letter to the chamber. In it, Giffords said she had “more work to do on my recovery before I can again serve in elected office.” Last January, a gunman opened fire at Giffords’ “Congress on Your Corner” event in Tucson, killing six people and wounding 13, including Giffords who suffered the gunshot wound. After reading it, an emotional Wasserman Schultz helped Giffords slowly make her way to the podium where she handed the letter to a teary-eyed Boehner. House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, DCalif., said Giffords had become “an inspiring symbol of determination and courage to millions of Americans ... Her message of bipartisanship and civility is one that all in Washington and in the nation should emulate.” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va.,
said Giffords’ “strength against all odds serves and will continue to serve as a daily inspiration to all of us.” Moments later, the House, including Giffords, voted for her final piece of legislation — a bill that would impose tougher penalties on smugglers who use small, low-flying aircraft to avoid radar detection and bring drugs across the Mexican border. The vote was 408-0. Giffords submitted resignation letters to both Boehner and Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, but it isn’t effective until the end of the day. It falls to Brewer to set a date for a special primary and general election to fill the Arizona seat. That will probably happen in the spring or early summer. In November, voters will choose someone for the full two-year term. Whoops, cheers and sustained standing ovations greeted Giffords’ arrival in the chamber.
Secret rescue plays out while president speaks BY ROBERT BURNS AND KIMBERLY DOZIER Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The secret was still intact when President Barack Obama, entering the House chamber Tuesday evening to deliver his State of the Union speech, pointed at his Pentagon chief and said, “Good job tonight.” Unknown to a global television audience watching the annual Capitol Hill ritual, a bold U.S. raid was still playing out half a world away with an elite Navy SEAL team’s rescue of two hostages in Somalia, one of them an American. It was the same unit that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, two U.S. officials said Wednesday. Publicly, Obama did not tip his hand during his speech, though microphones picked up his congratulation to Defense Secretary Leon Panetta as he entered the House chamber. Obama pointed his index finger to Panetta and said, “Good job tonight. Good job.” Panetta smiled broadly. Obama had learned shortly before that American aid worker Jessica Buchanan and Poul Hagen Thisted, a Dane, were safely in U.S. mili-
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama delivered an electionyear broadside to Republicans: Game on. The GOP, from Congress to the campaign trail, signaled it’s ready for the fight. In his third State of the Union address, Obama issued a populist call for income equality that echoed the Occupy Wall Street movement. He challenged GOP lawmakers to work with him or move aside so he could use the power of the presidency to produce results for an electorate uncertain whether he deserves another term. Facing a deeply divided Congress, Obama appealed for lawmakers to send him legislation on immigration, clean energy and housing, knowing full well the election-year prospects are bleak but aware that polls show that the independent voters who lifted him to the presidency crave bipartisanship. “I intend to fight ob-

olis. “As in previous moments of national danger, we Americans are all in the same boat.” Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday the protracted policy fight with Republicans is “not about bad guys and good guys,” but centers on how best to keep the middle class growing in America. The administration has worked hard to strike deals with congressional Republicans on a wide array of issues, he said, including steps to rein in the mounting federal deficit. But Biden added that time after time in talks he held with congressional figures in both parties, he was told little could be accomplished because of the wall of opposition from 86 conservative House Republicans. “It’s like the tail is wagging the dog,” the vice president said. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., called the differences between the parties “stark” and said he thought little could be accomplished on the federal debt until the two sides come to grips with the skyrocketing costs of health care and the Medicare program.

struction with action,” Obama told a packed chamber and tens of millions of Americans watching in prime time. House Republicans greeted his words with stony silence. The Democratic president’s vision of an activist government broke sharply with Republican demands for less government intervention to allow free enterprise. The stark differences will be evident in the White House’s dealings with Congress and in the presidential campaign over the next 10 months. In the Republican response to the president’s address, Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, who once considered a White House bid, railed against the “extremism” of an administration that stifles economic growth. “No feature of the Obama presidency has been sadder than its constant effort to divide us, to curry favor with some Americans by castigating others,” Daniels said, speaking from Indianap-

would say more about her medical problem or say how the U.S. learned of it getting worse. In his State of the Union speech the president did not mention the rescue, though he did refer to another successful military operation — the May 2011 killing of bin Laden in Pakistan by Navy SEAL Team 6. “One of my proudest possessions is the flag that the SEAL Team took with them on the mission to get bin Laden,” Obama said in his speech. Tuesday’s rescue was carried out by the same SEAL unit that carried out the bin Laden operation, two U.S. officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the operation. The unit is the Naval Special Warfare Development Group, also known as SEAL Team 6. The members of the unit who carried out the rescue operation were not the same personnel as those who killed bin Laden, the U.S. officials said. In a predawn White House statement, Obama praised U.S. Special Operations Forces who rescued Buchanan and the Dane, who had been kidnapped at gunpoint by Somali pirates in October.

So, what share of sales did AT&T get? And was the company able to turn a profit on the phones? It gives buyers a hefty discount on the $600 price.

Big men give Rebels a chance in SEC BY DAVID BRANDT The Associated Press
OXFORD — Mississippi isn’t very good at shooting 3-pointers and even worse at the free-throw line, serious flaws that have made scoring points a struggle during stretches this season. But the Rebels do have some muscle — and they like to flex it. That’s been enough to keep Ole Miss (13-6, 3-2) in the top half of the Southeastern Conference going into tonight’s home game with No. 14 Florida (15-4, 4-1).
Reginald Buckner, Murphy Holloway and Terrance Henry form a tenacious, veteran trio. They grab rebounds, play defense and specialize in winning ugly, making up for whatever they lack in talent with sheer hustle. “It’s what we need. It’s who we are,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said. “The reality is our most veteran group is our frontcourt.” And they’ve also been the Rebels’ most productive group. Ole Miss is second in the SEC in rebounding margin, behind only top-
ranked Kentucky. Holloway and Buckner rank third and fourth, respectively, in the league in rebounds per game. “Right now, we’re going against maybe the best rebounding team in the league, if not one of the best in the country,” Florida coach Billy Donovan said. “Any time you can rebound the basketball like they do, it eliminates second chances. Across the front line, they’ve got length, size and athleticism.” Buckner, a 6-foot-9, 225-pound junior, is already the school’s career leader in
blocked with 203 through two and a half seasons. His defensive ability has never been questioned, but his offensive game lags behind because of an awkward shooting touch and robotic moves in the post. He’s averaging 6.7 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. Plus, there have been occasional issues with attitude. Kennedy suspended Buckner for a game earlier this season for a “violation of team rules” and the sixth-year coach Please see SEC | 9

Fielder and Tigers agree on 9-year deal BY NOAH TRISTER Associated Press
DETROIT — With Prince Fielder and Miguel Cabrera in the middle of the lineup, the Detroit Tigers look ready for a season of slugging at Comerica Park. Fielder and the Tigers agreed Tuesday to a nineyear, $214 million contract, a person familiar with the deal said. The AL Central champions boldly stepped up in the Fielder sweepstakes after the recent knee injury to star Victor Martinez. A week ago, the Tigers announced the productive designated hitter could miss the entire season after tearing his left ACL during offseason conditioning. CBS first reported the
agreement with Fielder. The person told The Associated Press the deal was subject to a physical. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the contract was not yet complete. Several teams had shown interest this winter in Fielder, the free agent first baseman who had spent his entire career with the Milwaukee Brewers. He visited Texas, and the Washington Nationals also got involved in the discussions. The Tigers won their division by 15 games before losing in the AL championship series to Texas. With Fielder now in the fold, general manager Dave Dombrowski and owner Mike Ilitch have a
team that figures to enter the 2012 season as a favorite to repeat in the division — with an eye on winning the franchise’s first World Series title since 1984. “Everyone knew Mr. Ilitch and Mr. Dombrowski were going to make a move when Victor went down,” outfielder Brennan Boesch said in a phone interview with the AP. “But I don’t think anybody thought it would be this big.” The move also keeps Fielder’s name in the Tigers’ family. His father, Cecil, became a big league star when he returned to the majors from Japan and hit 51 home runs with Detroit in 1990. Cecil played with the Tigers into the 1996 season, and young
Prince made a name for himself by hitting prodigious home runs in batting practice at Tiger Stadium. In an interview with MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM, Cecil Fielder said he was “shocked” by the news that Prince was heading to Detroit. “He’s been there in Detroit most of his young life so I think he’ll be comfortable in that place,” Cecil Fielder said. “I know Mr. Ilitch is probably excited because he’s been wanting that kid since he was a little kid, so he finally got his wish.” With Cabrera and Fielder, Detroit will begin this season Please see TIGERS | 9
Colts hire Ravens’ Pagano as new head coach BY MICHAEL MAROT Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts hired Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano as their new head coach on Wednesday. The team said Pagano will be introduced at a news conference on Thursday. It will be the first head coaching job for the 51-year-old Pagano, who has been a career assistant until now with stops in Oakland and Cleveland in the NFL and stints at schools including Miami and North Carolina. He replaces Jim Caldwell, who was fired after the Colts’
2-14 season in which quarterback Peyton Manning never played a down as he recovered from neck surgery. The move is just the latest in a dizzying series of changes by owner Jim Irsay. The Colts fired Caldwell last week after three seasons. The team went to the Super Bowl during Caldwell’s first year, but this year locked up the No. 1 overall draft pick with a horrid performance that also cost team vice chairman Bill Polian and his son, general manager Chris, their jobs. Irsay has since hired 39-year-old Ryan Grigson as the new GM while letting go
of Caldwell’s staff. In all, 11 of the 20 coaches who started the season are gone and others they may go, too, once Pagano arrives. Pagano spent three years as the Ravens’ secondary coach before replacing Bryan Mattison as Baltimore’s defensive coordinator a year ago. The Ravens ranked third in total defense and allowed the third-fewest points in the NFL. Marvin Lewis, Mike Nolan and Rex Ryan all held the position before becoming head coaches in the NFL, and now it’s Pagano’s turn. The Wyoming graduate and former strong safety
for the Cowboys began his coaching career in 1984 as a graduate assistant at Southern California and spent time at in the college ranks at Boise State, UNLV, East Carolina and Miami before joining Cleveland to coach the secondary. In 2005-06, he was defensive backs job at Oakland, then served as defensive coordinator at North Carolina before joining the Ravens when John Harbaugh became head coach four years ago. “Chuck is unorthodox,” Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs said. “He’s like The Please see COLTS | 9

Joker. You never really expect what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to do, and everything has a motive.â&#x20AC;? The Ravens considered Pagano to be just one of the guys. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What makes him good? He relates to the players a whole lot,â&#x20AC;? defensive end Cory Redding said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like a player in a D-coordinatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position. The guy has so much fun with us. He treats you like more than a player. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re his sons. He wants us to do well. He keeps it fresh. He knows everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strengths and puts them in position to make plays.â&#x20AC;? Asked last month if he had aspirations to be a head coach, Pagano replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I was a kid growing up, my dad being a football coach, he asked the same question of all the assistants that he ever hired: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Is your goal to be a head football coach?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He always said if somebody had answered him, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Not really, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m OK just being a position coach,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; then I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think he really wanted him on his staff because he wanted ambitious guys. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think if you ask anybody theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say yeah. That would be something you always work for and toward.â&#x20AC;? Ravens linebacker Paul Kruger believes Pagano has what it takes to be a head coach in the NFL. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chuck has a leadership quality about him. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s humble but he also knows when to take the reins and take charge,â&#x20AC;? Kruger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to dominate you in every meeting. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a coach that knows exactly how players are and what direction they need. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hell of a coach and I really think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a head coach one day.â&#x20AC;?

College football’s top seniors gather in Mobile for a week of intense practices and a game on Saturday in one of the most important scouting events for NFL talent evaluators. The Vikings’ Leslie Frazier will coach the North squad and Redskins’ Mike Shanahan will coach the South. PRO BOWL SUNDAY, JAN. 29, HONOLULU, HI
The NFL’s annual all-star game kicks off on the island of Oahu on Sunday, when the AFC and NFC go head-to-head. There will be no Giants or Patriots in the game, which was moved to the week before the Super Bowl in 2010. But there will be plenty of Aloha spirit on both sides.
Athlon Sports
VINCE WILFORK, DT, PATRIOTS The 325-plus-pound monster in the middle dominated the line of scrimmage during a 23–20 win over Baltimore in the AFC title game. Wilfork recorded one sack and six total tackles — including a key fourth-quarter third-down tackle for a loss on running back Ray Rice, which moved the Ravens out of field goal range, forced them to go for it on fourth down and ultimately led to a turnover on downs. Easily the most disruptive defensive player in this year’s playoffs, the eight-year veteran is now looking to add a second Super Bowl ring, after winning it all in Super Bowl XXXIX but falling short in Super Bowl XLII. DEVIN THOMAS, WR, GIANTS The good hands man who was at the right place at the right time — twice — during New York’s 20–17 overtime win at San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game. Thomas’ two fumble recoveries led to 10 points, including the gamewinning 31-yard field goal by Lawrence Tynes. 49ers backup return man Kyle Williams — the son of Chicago White Sox general manager Ken Williams — replaced the injured Ted Ginn Jr., who sat out with a sore knee. Williams had a day to forget, muffing a punt off of his knee in the second quarter and fumbling the ball in overtime. Thomas cashed in both times, scooping up the loose balls and sparking a Giants win. VERNON DAVIS, TE, 49ERS The Niners tight end was solid gold during the playoffs. After posting seven catches for 180 yards (25.7 ypc) and two TDs in San Francisco’s Divisional Round win over the Saints, Davis followed that effort with three catches for 112 yards (37.3 ypc) and two trips to the end zone — a highlight-reel 73-yard sprint down the sideline and a 28-yard score. Davis joined the “G.O.A.T.” Jerry Rice as the only 49ers with two TD catches in back-to-back playoff games, finishing the postseason with 10 receptions for 292 yards (29.2 ypc) and four TDs.
■ You can’t spell “elite” without Eli. Giants quarterback ELI MANNING is headed to the Super Bowl for the second time in five seasons after an heroic effort in a 20–17 overtime win on the road and in the rain against the 49ers. Manning completed 32-of-58 passes — both new team records — for 316 yards, two TDs and zero INTs in victory. The Super Bowl XLII MVP was the toughest man on the field, taking six sacks and at least 20 hits from an abusive San Francisco defense. This is nothing new, however. Manning has thrown for 923 yards, eight TDs and one INT for a 103.1 rating during the Giants’ postseason run this season. Over New York’s current five-game winning streak, Manning has thrown 12 TDs and just two INTs, leading Big Blue back to the big game for a rematch with Tom Brady and the Patriots.
Game, Set, Rematch Patriots, Giants meet again in Super Bowl XLVI By NATHAN RUSH Athlon Sports Editor
The greatest battles in sports often produce the greatest rematches. Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. The Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. All are classic rivalries with multiple spellbinding chapters. And now, the New England Patriots and New York Giants — the last two teams left standing, as champions of the AFC and NFC, respectively — look to join those historic ranks. The Patriots defeated the Baltimore Ravens, 23–20, in a game that ended with Baltimore kicker Billy Cundiff missing a 32-yard chip shot field goal that would have sent the contest into overtime. “It’s a kick I’ve kicked a thousand times in my career,” Cundiff said, in disbelief with watery eyes following the game. “You know that Ray Lewis has poured his heart out, and you don’t know how many years he has left. To let him down is pretty tough.” On the other side, the Giants eaked out a 20–17 overtime win on the road and in the rain against the San Francisco 49ers, following a fumbled punt by Kyle Williams, who was subbing for an injured Ted Ginn Jr. Williams’ second turnover of the game put the Giants in field goal range, allowing Lawrence Tynes the opportunity to hit the second sudden-death, game-winning, NFC title-clinching field goal of his career. “You hate to be the last guy that had the ball, to give it away in that fashion and to lose a game of this magnitude,” said Williams, who sat dazed with cameras and microphones surrounding his usually vacant locker space after the game. As a result of the costly mistakes made by Cundiff and Williams, Super Bowl XLVI at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis will be a rematch of Super Bowl XLII at University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona, where the Giants upset the previously unbeaten Patriots, 17–14, in one of the most exciting Super Bowls of all time.

Tom Brady is 3–1 all-time in the Super Bowl — with his only loss coming vs. the Giants — and was named MVP of the big game after Super Bowls XXXVI and XXXVIII.
Although there are many new faces, both head coaches (New England’s Bill Belichick and New York’s Tom Coughlin) and high-profile quarterbacks (Tom Brady and Eli Manning) are back for another showdown on Super Sunday. Brady and Manning are only the third pair of quarterbacks to play each other in multiple Super Bowls. Pittsburgh’s Terry Bradshaw beat Dallas’ Roger Staubach in Super Bowls X and XIII, while Dallas’ Troy Aikman bested Buffalo’s Jim Kelly in Super Bowls XXVII and XXVIII. Obviously, Brady will look to buck that trend by becoming the first losing QB to win his Super Bowl rematch. Manning, however, will aim to recreate the magic he had on the Giants’ epic 12-play, 83-yard game-winning drive that featured three clutch thirddown conversions — including the miraculous 32-yard “helmet catch” by David Tyree on 3rd-and-5 — and was capped by a 13-yard scoring strike to a wide open Plaxico Burress with 35 seconds remaining.

“You can’t write a better script,” said Manning, after winning his first Super Bowl in dramatic fashion. “There were so many big plays on that drive.” This will also be a rematch of the Week 9 matchup between the Pats and G-Men. The Giants also won that meeting, 24–20, with Manning hitting tight end Jake Ballard for a one-yard touchdown with 15 seconds remaining — in a play reminiscent of Manning’s Super Bowl-winning touchdown pass to Burress as well as the incredible Tyree grab four plays earlier on the final drive. “I’d rather be down by three with a minute-thirty than up by four with a minute-thirty with Tom Brady, with their offense on the field,” Manning echoed, with an eerily similar reaction after the Week 9 victory. “You like those situations where you have an opportunity to go win the game.” New England has won 10 straight games since losing to New York, a team riding a five-game win streak of its own.

“We’ve had five straight singleelimination games,” said Coughlin. “Somehow, some way, we’ve found a way to scratch our way to a win.” During that five-game winning streak, Manning has been arguably the best quarterback in football — passing for 1,494 yards, 12 TDs and two INTs in wins over the Jets, Cowboys, Falcons, Packers and 49ers. Meanwhile, the Big Blue Wrecking Crew defense has been running on all cylinders, allowing an average of 13.4 points per game, notching 20 sacks and forcing 11 turnovers along the way. In Super Bowl XLII, Brady was dogged by the Giants’ defensive line, taking five sacks and losing a fumble. In this year’s postseason, Brady has posted day and night performances, with 363 yards and a record six TDs in a blowout of the Broncos before tossing two INTs and failing to throw a TD for the first time in 36 games in a nailbiter against the Ravens. “I sucked pretty bad,” Brady said after the AFC Championship Game. “I’m gonna go out and try to do a better job in a couple weeks.” The three-time Super Bowl champ and two-time Super Bowl MVP even went so far as to make a promise to Patriots owner Robert Kraft. “He said to me, ‘I promise you I’m going to play a lot better in two weeks,’ said Kraft, whose wife Myra passed away this season and whose team has worn tribute patches with her initials, “MHK” since her death. “He’s still pretty good in my book. I’ll take him over any quarterback. I’ve been watching the NFL for a long time, and there’s no quarterback I’d rather have.” History backs up Kraft’s opinion. Brady tied Joe Montana’s all-time playoff wins record, with 16. Just by going to the big game again Brady has tied John Elway for most Super Bowl appearances by a starting quarterback, with five. A victory over the Giants would give Brady the all-time playoff wins mark outright and tie him with Montana and Terry Bradshaw for most Super Bowl wins all-time by a starting quarterback, with four. “It’s incredible,” said Brady. “You pinch yourself to get this opportunity. It’s really a privilege.”

Patriots’ Belichick campaigns for consistent approach BY HOWARD ULMAN The Associated Press
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Season opener or Super Bowl, every game is a big game to Bill Belichick. His consistent approach to preparation for the next opponent, whether a powerhouse or a pushover, is the cornerstone of the coaching that has brought the New England Patriots to their fifth Super Bowl in 11 years. The more intense the practices, the more prepared his players are for
the game. “You know what to expect week-in and weekout with him,” wide receiver Matthew Slater said. “The attention to detail is always there. It doesn’t matter if it’s a bye week or if it’s a divisional playoff round. He’s committed to winning and that commitment never falters, no matter what the circumstance, no matter how much success we’ve had or how many games we may have lost in a row. “That commitment to
winning is always there.” During practices, Belichick strolls the field, sometimes twirling his whistle on a lanyard, other times stopping to talk with players. His daily message is simple — get the fundamentals right and just do your own job while preparing for the uniqueness of the next opponent. That’s resulted in 10 straight victories, eight in the regular season and two in the playoffs. Another win on Feb. 5 against the New York Giants would
give the Patriots their fourth Super Bowl championship. “I think every game is a big game,” Belichick said Tuesday. “Every time we get an opportunity to compete then we try to take advantage of the time leading up to that opportunity — the practice week, the preparation, the film study, understanding our game plan and our adjustments, all of those kinds of things. “What else is there to work on but the game, the
next one on your schedule, the one that you’re playing? You try to cover all your bases for that game, you play it, and then you start the process all over again with the next one.” Right guard Brian Waters played his first 11 seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs. But when he signed with the Patriots on Sept. 4, eight days before the season opener, he quickly sensed the difference in Belichick’s style. “I wasn’t here in training camp but, from day
one, I can tell that he’s all about the details,” Waters said. “He’s all about everybody doing their own job and staying in their lane. Everybody has their own responsibilities. That’s something that you learn early on and that’s something that he still makes sure that we understand today.” Another part of the Belichick playbook: Don’t focus on the past or far into the future, just on the next practice and the next game.

11 â&#x20AC;˘ Daily Corinthian
Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The Pisces moon highlights the need for a higher love in our lives. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lovely to have the energy of friendship and romance flowing through life, there are deeper levels of goodness at work in the world that can only be accessed through profound compassion, remarkable sacrifice and spiritual connection. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll let go of the past and turn toward the future. You have a sense that tomorrow will be better, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re right about that. Free yourself to hop on a trend, move with the forward thinking and experience the unusual. TAURUS (April 20May 20). The events of the day highlight your softer emotional side. Progress depends on listening closely to the voice of your intuition, which can be perceived through the muscles of your body. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your first impression will be on target, though you may forget about it as a relationship develops. So write down your thoughts now, and tuck them away to review later. It will make things more interesting. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Objectivity will be necessary. There will be a reason to practice the Zen art of detachment. Better to pull back emotionally than to let your feelings overpower your usual good judgment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The ideal teacher makes you feel good about your-
self and empowered to act. A mentor will be most helpful now, as there will be a problem to solve, an attitude to adjust or a habit to cultivate. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are times when your subconscious mind may be more powerful and a lot sneakier than your conscious mind. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why it helps to get in touch with what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going through at the deeper levels of thought. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Fun and socializing will help your professional life, but only if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting to know the right people. Go where you feel welcome to be yourself. If you have to pretend in order to fit in, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a good fit. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be an inspector of sorts. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll notice what needs to be fixed and report on what you see. The problematic area might be in your own life or someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. In the latter case, use discretion. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are special and interesting features of your life that you may want to share with the people close to you. In order to remember the topics of conversation you most want to bring up, make a list. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may be bored for a short time, until you realize that your environment, no matter how stale it may seem, is always a playground for your physical and mental exploration. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-
Feb. 18). Carefully choose your business and personal allies. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to put them through a test to recognize the good ones. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re savvy and street smart enough to know who will be good for you. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your good luck will center on the helpful people in your life, including partners, acquaintances, teachers, counselors and clergy. Ask for attention from these types, especially by posing interesting questions. TODAYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 26). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be happy with the progress of relationships, and feelings deepen through February and March. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be strong in business this summer. Be sure to invest in your own fun times, as well. You may have extra expenses involving travel and entertainment in July. Family will appreciate your generosity. Cancer and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 11, 3, 39 and 6. SCORPIO 2012 AT A GLANCE: JANUARY: Put off making a decision until youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re absolutely sure which option is right for you. When in doubt, do nothing. FEBRUARY: The company you keep will affect the quality and quantity of your work, so stick near the winners. MARCH: It will feel best to be in the middle of the action, learning what is necessary to make a venture great. APRIL: Creature comforts will take on added importance, and
youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be thinking about your financial security, as well. MAY: The full moon in your sign on May 5th favors your love life. JUNE: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll lay down roots with the people you love. JULY: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll celebrate a solid accomplishment that took years of diligent and faithful work to achieve. AUGUST: Mars enters your sign stirring ambitions and sparking ideas. SEPTEMBER: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be motivated to take a leadership position. OCTOBER: Saturn and the sun offer you new confidence. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do something youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been meaning to do for a long time. NOVEMBER: Mercury retrograde in your sign will mix up the communication systems. DECEMBER: Venus in your sign will inspire you to beautify your surroundings. Your refreshing sense of style will make a strong impression. CELEBRITY PROFILES: Aquarius natives are known for their humanitarian efforts, and often the generosity of spirit extends to the animal kingdom. Such is the case with Aquarius comedian, talk-show host and awarded humanitarian Ellen DeGeneres, who regularly helps animal charities such as The Gentle Barn, a home and hospital for animals that have been abused.

BLESSINGS â&#x20AC;&#x153;IN CHRISTâ&#x20AC;? The expression â&#x20AC;&#x153;in Christâ&#x20AC;? appears seventy-seven times in the (KJV) of the New Testament. Many are not willing to explore this expression because it teaches something different from what they have been taught and believe. The Bible plainly teaches that all spiritual blessings are in Christ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christâ&#x20AC;? (Eph 1:3). Since all spiritual blessings are in Christ, there are no spiritual blessings outside of Christ. Paul reveals how and when one gets into Christ to receive the beneďŹ ts of the shed blood of Christ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his deathâ&#x20AC;? (Rom 6:3)? Since this is true, how can people claim to be saved before or without baptism? The beneďŹ ts of the shed blood of Christ is only reached in baptism. Paul further reveals that redemption is in Christ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being justiďŹ ed freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesusâ&#x20AC;? (Rom 3:24).Ananias told Saul later known as Paul how to have his sins washed away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord (Acts 22:16). One who is in Christ is a new creature. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become newâ&#x20AC;? (2 Cor 5:17). Salvation is only located in Christ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Therefore I endure all things for the electâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal gloryâ&#x20AC;? (2 Tim 2:10). Naaman the leper was told to dip in the river of Jordan seven times to be healed of his leprosy (2 Kings 5:14). Those who are baptized are blessed with forgiveness. There is no power in the water to wash away our sins, but we are saved when we obey the command to be baptized. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damnedâ&#x20AC;? (Mark 16:16). Only the saved can enjoy the spiritual blessings that are in Christ. Regardless of how foolish the command of baptism may seem, it is a command of Christ. Are we willing to obey the command of baptism in order to reach the saving blood of Christ?

Daily Corinthian • Thursday, January 26, 2012 • 13
Savannah, Tenn., starts as a ‘pretty village’ on river I purchased an awesome book titled “Shiloh Stories” by Tony Hays. Hays is from Savannah, Tenn. Since this is the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, I’ve been writing columns about the war. Today’s is from “Shiloh Stories” and is history about the town of Savannah. I had many descendants from Hardin County and love going there to shop and eat. Whenever I camp at J.P. Coleman State Park, I eat many meals in Savannah. “Founded in the late 1820’s to quiet complaints from the west side of the river, Savannah was intended from the first to be the county seat. In 1862,
it was a small town indeed, the inhabitants numbering Vicki only some Roach 600. One Union ofFamily ficer deBranches scribed the settlement to his wife as consisting of a single dirt street with a few scattered buildings and ‘some rather pretty and stylish houses in the suburbs.’ A journalist with the Daily Missouri Republican called Savannah ‘a pretty village, situated on the bluff on the east side of
the river.’ “A rural town, dependent on the river for much of its trade, Savannah boasted both male and female academies. Savannah College, a new educational endeavor, was nothing more than a framed skeleton on Main Street, wartime needs for lumber superseding education. Few brick structures graced the streets. The Cherry house, built of red brick was constructed about 1830 and was easily visible from the river in 1837 when a British traveler commented on it. That traveler also left a description of a group of citizens at Satillo that’s
probably reflective of other Hardin Countians of the era: “’At five a.m. we came to a small place on the left bank about 10 miles below Savannah. Three women and five children were standing on the banks, looking pale and sickly, as if oppressed by fever and ague: One of the females was smoking a pipe, with a wretched looking baby in her arms; near them were two men and a boy, all dismallooking objects.’ “Just north of the Cherry house was the Kindell Hotel, owned and operated by widow Elizabeth Kindell, a Southern sympathizer. Her husband,

Amendment would alter Tenn. judge selection Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Gov. Bill Haslam wants to put constitutional questions about the way judges are selected in Tennessee before the voters. Haslam was joined Wednesday by Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey and House Speaker Beth Harwell in announcing they oppose the election of Supreme Court justices. They proposed a constitutional amendment that would allow judges to be nominated by a commission based on merit, appointed by the governor, and chosen in a retention election as they are now. They said legislation will also be filed to extend the Judicial Nominating Commission and the Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission until at least 2015.
