Police search for armed robbery suspect BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth police are seeking information from the public to help identify an armed robbery suspect. A man carrying a small handgun robbed the Sprint Mart at

Cass Street and Meigg Street at about 9:30 Sunday night. The man entered the store and demanded money from the cashier. She told him she didn’t have any money, and the man grabbed a single bill off the counter and fled. The cashier was about to

put the bill on the counter — a $100 bill — into a money bag. Police Chief David Lancaster said the man was captured on the store’s surveillance video. The suspect is described as a black male approximately 6 feet tall with a big build. He was wearing

blue jeans, a gray shirt, a purple mask, purple latex gloves, and black and red Air Jordan shoes. The police department would like to hear from anyone who may have seen the suspect in the area or has any information about the case.

Contact Detective Pete Smith at the police department at 2863377 or submit information anonymously through Crime Stoppers of Northeast Mississippi by calling 1-800-773tips or use the on-line form at crimestoppersnems.com.

Agencies make 7 ‘Sudafed law’ arrests MICHIE, Tenn. – There have been seven people arrested in McNairy and Hardin counties as part of a violation of the law preventing the excess purchase of pseudoephedrine. This investigation includes 67 others who have violated the “Sudafed law.” A combination of work between the McNairy County Sheriff’s Department, Selmer City Police and the Savannah City Police has been successful with the arrests over the weekend. The initial arrest was made Friday by the McNairy County Narcotics Unit when Chad and Monica Tull were arrested at their house on 100 South

Prather Road in Michie. The officers discovered an active meth lab in the house. The Tulls were charged with the initiation of meth, promotion of meth and tampering with evidence. Chad Tull was also charged with buying too much Sudafed. They are now in the McNairy County Jail. McNairy County Sheriff Guy Buck said the new law prevents anyone from buying more than two boxes of Sudafed in a month. People are legally able to buy only one box of Sudafed per day. If a person purchases too much pseudoephedrine or Please see SUDAFED | 2A

Cancer doesn’t take a day off. Neither does the fight to find a cure for the disease. Organizers of the 2012 Alcorn County Relay of Life got in the fighting mood during the

event’s kickoff luncheon at the Alcorn County Extension Office. “Now is the time to get excited about Relay for Life,” said American Cancer Society Community Representative Kristin Chittom.

Building permits total $21.7M BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Hospital and school construction projects helped give Corinth an above average fourth quarter for building activity. Project values for October through December totaled

$21.7 million, easily outpacing the fourth quarter 2010 total of $2.5 million. The bulk of the quarter’s total came from a single project, the new construction phase at Magnolia Regional Health Center. The city issued a permit for the $19.3 million project on Oct. 3.

The second-largest project of the quarter, valued at $842,000, was the Corinth School District’s field house project at Corinth High School. Among commercial activity, Geisha Japanese RestauPlease see PERMITS | 2A

Volunteers are needed to help a local organization give the gift of literacy. Corinth-Alcorn Literacy Council (CALC) is looking for adult literacy tutors. Affiliated with ProLiteracy and funded by the United Way, the group’s mission is to recruit and tutor under-educated adults in reading and writing; to train and provide backup services and refresher training for tutors; and to promote interest in literacy in the community. CALC works to equip adults with the reading, writing, speaking and math skills they need to be successful in their families, in the workplace and in the community. According to the 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy, Mississippi has one of the highest — if not the highest — rates of functional illiteracy in the United

States. At the present, 15 percent of Alcorn County citizens function at or below fifth grade literacy levels. “Adult low literacy impacts business, healthcare, social, community, education and other cost-driven entities,” said tutor trainer Cheryl Meints. “Literacy means dollars earned for all concerned.” Currently, CALC has 22 students and 24 tutors in their program. Meints described the program as a collaborative learner-centered approach to adult literacy education. The group is seeking prospective tutors to complete the 15-hour Tutor Training Workshop and serve as volunteers in weekly one-on-one sessions with adult students who are looking to increase their level of literacy. Tutors must be at least 18 years old. The workshops, led my Meints and tutor trainer Vicki

Avery, will provide instruction on what makes an effective tutor, how adults and low-literacy adults learn, and include handson activities, role-playing and discussions of short- and longterm life goals. They will learn about goal-setting, lesson planning, the coping skills of low-literacy adults, and much more. “We try to expose the prospective tutors to what we’ve learned,” said Meints. “It’s a long process.” After completing the Tutor Training Workshop, the tutors are asked to volunteer one or two hours per week to each of their students. Most tutors only tutor one student per year, Meints explained. The year-long program’s goal is based on the adult student’s need, whether that need is learning to sign his or her name, to be able to read to his or her children, or to

manufacturing methamphetamine,” said Darrell Hopkins of the Alcorn Narcotics Unit. “It is a crime to go to the pharmacy and purchase pseudoephedrine and take it to another person to manufacture methamphetamine.” Alcorn Narcotics officer Dennis Smith was contacted by North Mississippi Narcotics officer Jeff Palmer after he had detained J. Glidewell for purchasing items to manufacture meth. S. Glidewell was arrested in Alcorn County after he fled. “Several people have been led to believe that as long as they do not make the actual meth, that it is okay to pur-

A local networking group will discuss ways to serve the community during its upcoming monthly meeting. The Corinth Area Young Professionals’ next event will be held Thursday, Jan. 19, at The Turn at Shiloh Ridge from 6 until 8 p.m. The group will discuss its plans for expansion and form a leadership committee, said Andrea Rose, community development director for The Alliance. “We’re trying to get a committee started to line up the locations for future meetings and to direct our community service efforts and other projects,” Rose explained. One of the possibilities for the group’s service effort is to get involved with a different service organization in the community each month. CAYP participants would volunteer with — and collect donations for — each particular month’s service organization.

Rose said this would be a way for the CAYP participants to get to know different organizations in the community. The monthly introductions to different service organizations will help CAYP members discover opportunities for service and make connections with organizations they can become more permanently involved with. Another item of discussion will be ways to grow the group. “We’ve had a pretty good response so far, and I know there are more people in the community who are interested in participating. We want to invite them to come next week,” Rose said. “There are so many good people who come to our events, and we want to invite more people to connect and network.” The CAYP group was founded in May 2011.

Bryant’s road to the mansion started with a defeat BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Phil Bryant has won seven straight elections, beginning with a race for state House in 1991. But he lost his first run for public office, a bid to become a Rankin County supervisor in 1988. The loss is one reason

Bryant is in line to take the oath as Mississippi’s 64th governor on Tuesday. It connected him with a group of supporters who helped elect Bryant to the Legislature and Kirk Fordice as governor in 1991, in a Republican breakthrough. Fordice and Bryant bonded, lead-

ing the state’s first modern Republican governor to name Bryant as state auditor in 1996. Parts of the Bryant biography have been polished to a high shine. Born in the Delta town of Moorhead in 1954. Son of a diesel mechanic and a housewife. A Hinds County deputy sheriff who cut

his political teeth in the Jaycees. Took a trip to the White House as a Jaycee in 1986 and was inspired when President Ronald Reagan urged listeners to run for office. Bryant’s most consequential decision may have been to buy a house on Bay Park Drive near the Ross Barnett Reser-

voir in July 1985. He and his wife, Deborah, looked to the Jackson suburbs to raise a family, and “got a great bargain on the house,” Bryant said. Rapidly growing Rankin County’s Democratic establishment was crumbling after Operation Pretense. The FBI sting yielded the indict-

ment of 57 county supervisors statewide for corrupt purchasing practices. In Rankin County, two supervisors were toppled. Bryant jumped into a GOP primary to replace one, ending up in a runoff against Larry Swales. Swales was backed by supporters led by Billy Powell and Gary Harkins.

funds leading up to Relay night. Local teams heard the inspiring story of Baldwyn Relay chairman Shelaine Pennington on Monday. Pennington started the event in the town while her mother, Dottie Pennington, was undergoing treatment for cancer. “Shelaine has taken Relay and made it what it needs to be,” said Chittom. “It’s all about the cancer patients.” “I was devastated when I found out my mom had cancer,” said Pennington. “I knew I wanted to do something more.” She did. The Prentiss County Extension Office Director formed the Baldwyn Relay from scratch. “The first thing I did was go to the Chamber director and say ‘we are starting relay,’” said the organizer. “It’s a major thing for us in Baldwyn.” Pennington offered several tips for local organizers to consider for

the June 1 event at Crossroads Regional Park. “We bleed purple,” said the Baldwyn organizer of the event’s official color. “We go at it as hard as we can.” According to Pennington, one of the keys is having a dedicated committee. “You don’t need people on the committee who can’t pull their weight,” she said. “When you have an awesome committee, you need to stand back and let them do their job.” Baldwyn started with 16 teams and now averages 20 per year. Pennington also stressed coming up with ideas that are unique and number one — “never lose sight of the purpose.” Baldwyn raised $30,000 in its first year after setting a $10,000 goal. Last year, $67,500 was raised by the town which is in both Lee and Prentiss County. Alcorn County collected $59,000 during its Relay in 2011. “If we can do it, you can do it,” said Pennington.

‘Mission’ reaches new heights; ‘Zoo’ movie good for family BY TERRY BURNS Movie Critic

Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol, PG-13, ****,Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Jane Paula Patton; Paramount film; Director Brad Bird; length -- 132 minutes The action in “Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol” lives up to the “impossible.” If heights give the viewer uneasiness, come prepared. We will get to the high rise scene further into the review. The story begins with Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) in a Russian jail. I will not reveal why, but it goes without saying he does escape with a little help from his friends. It is revealed that the entire team has been disavowed because America has been blamed for an explosion in Russia and it was not appreciated. Of course, Ethan, Jane (Paula Patton) and Brandt (Jeremy Renner) still take on a mission that is impossible. Hunt and his posse must stop a nuclear bomb from getting into America. Explosions, car chase, and shoot-outs begin and do not slow down until the end. In order to stop the nuclear weapon the team must travel to Dubai. Their plan is to check into the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. As their strategy develops a few problems

I watched a portion of how this feat was accomplished on a special. Cruise is notorious for doing his own stunts. The clips I watched showed him hanging from the side of the building while filming this incredible scene. Of course, he had safety attachments which were removed from the final cut. There is no doubt the climb up the high rise is an exciting scene. It gives the audience thrills along with some jumpy moments, especially if heights trouble the viewer. Just about the time the audience thinks Hunt is safe something happens. “Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol” has a surprise concerning one of the team members. We also get a little history about Hunt’s wife before the movie ends. The movie is exciting, full of espionage and action. I recommend it for

fun adrenaline action. We Bought a Zoo, PG, ***1/2,Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, Thomas Haden Church; 20th Century Fox film; Director -Cameron Crowe; length -- 124 minutes “We Bought a Zoo” is based on a true story and a book by the same name. In the book, Ben Mee describes how he purchased a zoo in Devon, England. The location in the film is California. Matt Damon plays Benjamin, a widowed father with two children, Dylan (Colin Ford) and Rose (Maggie Elizabeth Jones). He is looking for a way to keep his children happy. Dylan is rebellious with a dark artistic side to him that worries his teachers. Rose has a very funny line when a party is taking place next door. The festivities are loud and wild. She comments, “Their happy is too loud.” I thought it was an appropriate statement. In order to try and bring the family togeth-

er, Benjamin decides to move to a new neighborhood and buy a zoo. Yes, a zoo -- complete with exotic animals, work to be done and problems to solved. Duncan (Thomas Haden Church), Ben’s brother, tries to talk him out of purchasing the zoo to no avail. Ben is determined to take on the zoo and all of its responsibilities. Of course, trouble begins to arise. Kelly Foster (Scarlett Johansson), Peter (Angus Macfadyen), and Lily (Elle Fanning) who work at the zoo, make up an unusual group. “We Bought a Zoo” has its ups and downs, but it highlights how it is always best to talk and bring family problems out into the open. Audiences will also learn a lot about animals along with Ben and his family. It is worth taking the family to see for an adventurous and informative experience.

QuitLine assists smokers in kicking the habit BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

Start the new year by making healthy lifestyle changes such as eating better, getting more physical activity and quitting smoking. While quitting can be difficult, it can be done, especially with the help of professional support. People have a greater chance of quitting for good and keeping their New Year’s resolution with help from the Tennessee Tobacco QuitLine, a free coaching service available to all adult Tennesseans who wish to stop using tobacco. “Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do to improve your health and the health of your family, and we’re eager to support any Tennessean who wants to take up this challenge,” Health Commissioner John Dreyzehner, MD, MPH, said. “Research shows smokers who use

counseling as part of their quit program have a better chance of quitting. We encourage all Tennesseans ready to start a tobaccofree life to take full advantage of the free resources the QuitLine provides.” The Tennessee Tobacco QuitLine, available at 1-800-QUIT-NOW and online at www.tnquitline. com, offers personalized support for Tennessee residents who want to quit smoking by connecting them with trained quit coaches to guide them through the quitting process. Callers will receive ongoing professional coaching via individually scheduled calls with a quit coach personally assigned to them. This convenient and confidential service is free and available in both English and Spanish. The service is also available for the deaf and hard-of-hearing at TTY: 1-877-559-3816.

QuitLine callers have complimentary access to relapse prevention techniques, printed resource materials, information on nicotine replacement therapies and other services to aid in the quitting process. Give yourself a raise: Besides being a killer, tobacco use is expensive! Most smokers directly spend more than $1,000 each year just on cigarettes and not counting the added costs of transportation, higher life and health insurance premiums and other indirect costs. Give your body a break: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, quitting smoking has the following health benefits: ■ Lowers risk of lung and other types of cancer. ■ Reduces risk for heart disease and stroke. ■ Improves respiratory symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and short-

ness of breath. ■ Reduces risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, a leading cause of death in the United States. ■ Reduces risk for infertility among women. ■ Reduces risk of low birth-weight babies for women who stop smoking while pregnant. The Tennessee Tobacco QuitLine (1-800-QUITNOW or 1-800-784-8669) is a statewide toll-free telephone tobacco cessation treatment program made possible through the Tennessee Department of Health. Call or visit www.tnquitline.com today. There is no charge for services and clients have unlimited access to a quit coach through the QuitLine. Hours are Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.; Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Central Time.

Corinth, Miss.

Postal Service needs to compete in the market The news that Eastman Kodak is preparing to file for bankruptcy, after being the leading photographic company in the world for more than a hundred years, marks the end of an era. The skills required to use the Thomas cameras and chemicals required Sowell by the photography of the mid19th century were far beyond Hoover those of most people — until a Institution man named George Eastman created a company called Kodak, which made cameras that ordinary people could use. It was Kodak’s humble and affordable box Brownie that put photography on the map for millions of people, who just wanted to take simple pictures of family, friends and places they visited. Kodak became the leading film maker of the 20th century. But sales of film declined for the first time in 2000, and sales of digital cameras surpassed the sales of film cameras just three years later. Just as Kodak’s technology made older modes of photography obsolete more than a hundred years ago, so the new technology of the digital age has left Kodak behind. Great names of companies in other fields have likewise vanished as new technology brought new rivals to the forefront, or else made the whole product obsolete, as happened with typewriters, slide rules and other products now remembered only by an older generation. That is what happens in a market economy and we all benefit from it as consumers. Unfortunately, that is not what happens in government. The post office is a classic example. Post offices were once even more important than Eastman Kodak, and for a longer time, as the mail provided vital communications linking people and organizations across thousands of miles. But, today, technology has moved even further beyond the post office than it has beyond Eastman Kodak. The difference is that, although the Postal Service is technically a private business, its income doesn’t cover all its costs — and taxpayers are on the hook for the difference. Moreover, the government makes it illegal for anyone else to put anything into your mail box, even though you bought the mail box and it is your property. That means you don’t have the option to have some other private company deliver your mail. In India, when private companies like Federal Express and United Parcel Service were allowed to deliver mail, the amount of mail delivered by that country’s post offices was cut in half between 2000 and 2005. What should be the fate of the Postal Service in the United States? In a sense, no one really knows. Nor is there any reason why they should. The real answer to the question whether the Postal Service is worth what it is costing can be found only when various indirect government subsidies stop and when the government stops forbidding others from carrying the mail — if that ever happens. If FedEx, UPS or someone else can carry the mail cheaper or better than the Postal Service, there is no reason why the public should not get the benefit of having their mail delivered cheaper or better. Politics is the reason why no such test is likely any time soon. Various special interests currently benefit from the way the post office is run —and especially by the way government backing keeps it afloat. Junk mail, for example, does not have to cover all its costs. You might be happy to get less junk mail if it had to pay a postage rate that covered the full cost of delivering it. But people who send junk mail would lobby Congress to stay on the gravy train. So would people who live in remote areas, where the cost of delivering all mail is higher. But if people who decide to live in remote areas don’t pay the costs that their decision imposes on the Postal Service, electric utilities and others, why should other people be forced to pay those costs? A society in which some people make decisions, and other people are forced to pay the costs created by those decisions, is a society where a lot of decisions can be made despite their costs being greater than their benefits. That is why the post office should have to face competition in the market, instead of lobbying politicians for government help. We cannot preserve everything that was once useful.

then. As new chairman of the Senate Housing Committee, he believes he’s positioned to do substantial work. “I won’t be a bench player,” Frazier said. “I’ll be on the field.” Reeves tapped two of his Republican allies to head the money committees. Third-term Sen. Buck Clarke of Hollandale is chairman of the budgetwriting Appropriations Committee. Joey Fillingane of Sumrall, an attorney, is chairman of the Finance Committee, which handles taxes, fees and bond bills. Fillingane served in the House from 2000 to 2006 and has been in the Senate since 2007. Clarke is a certified public accountant and was vice chairman of the Finance Committee last term. “I do ride around with the budget in my car all the time,” Clarke said. Second-term Sen. David Blount, D-Jackson, is chairman of the Public Property Committee, which is fitting since his district includes the Capitol and several other state office buildings. Blount was also named vice chairman of the Elections Committee, which matches

his background as a former longtime staff member for the secretary of state’s office. “I think the lieutenant governor listened to all of us,” Blount said. Because the House is larger, Gunn faces a more complex task in making committee assignments. Still, he has already served eight years in the chamber and knows most of his colleagues. The GOP took over the House majority in the Nov. 8 general election, for the first time since Reconstruction. Republicans met days later and chose Gunn as their consensus candidate for speaker, but he didn’t get the job until Jan. 3, the opening day of the 2012 legislative session. Four years ago, Republicans tried to topple Democrat Billy McCoy while he sought a second term as speaker. They gambled and lost -- and McCoy appointed only Democrats as committee chairmen. This time, Democrats didn’t nominate a speaker candidate. Gunn is giving few hints about his leadership team, but many lawmakers are hoping he’ll opt for some diversity, as Reeves did in the Senate.

ers into a cohesive base. Rest assured that what happened in 2008 is now considered quite out of date. In fact, during coverage of the Iowa caucuses recently a 2012 Obama campaign staffer was interviewed. He was questioned about the reaction of the president’s re-election campaign committee to the news that the Republican National Committee had compiled a notebook full of hundreds of Obama quotes to be used against the president in the general election campaign. The staffer was hardly perturbed as he briefly discussed new innovations in real time computer analysis and response that would, in his words, “make 2008 seem prehistoric.” The variety of 24-hour television news stations, partisan blog sites, email, Twitter, Facebook, online news sites, highly partisan messages from well financed “super pacs” -- what are we to make of this new way of politicking? A few observations pertaining to the good and the bad are in order. First, it can be maintained in a positive vein this explosion of available information is a vigorous exercise of the 1st Amendment to the Constitution and hence it represents a healthy expansion of representative Democracy. Secondly, in a perhaps less positive sense, the literal smorgasbord of sites and venues containing political news, many of them decidedly slanted to the left or right, has enabled us to select only those sites that are in sync

with our already well-defined beliefs. As such they provide the data and “talking points” to simply confirm and harden our convictions. Thirdly, of a clearly more negative nature, there is very little in the way of limits placed on what can be said about a “public figure.” Thus, as opposed to the days when one had 24 hours to a counter a rumor, by the time an offended candidate becomes aware news of a personal and dubious nature is “out there” it has already been shared and commented upon by tens or perhaps hundreds of thousands of people. Campaign strategists are becoming increasingly adept at making use of this extremely virulent property of high tech communication. It appears an Obama/ Romney presidential campaign is in store for us. Both campaigns will be financed with millions of dollars and both will have thousands of tech savvy staffers sitting at the communications controls 24 hours a day. If you plan to keep up you had better learn how to “tweet” on Twitter, “like” on Facebook and sort through and “bookmark” the websites that think like you do. Heaven forbid a valid opinion from the opposition would slip through the Web and change our minds. Dr. W. Marty Wiseman is professor of political science and director of the John C.

State Victims’ families: Barbour pardoned killers BY HOLBROOK MOHR Associated Press

JACKSON — Relatives of crime victims said Monday that outgoing Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour has pardoned at least three convicted murderers who worked as inmate trusties at the Governor’s Mansion, including one who was turned down for parole by a state board two weeks ago. In all, the relatives of three murder victims told The Associated Press on Monday that state corrections officials notified them over the weekend that the men convicted in the crimes were scheduled to be released this past Sunday.

Barbour’s office didn’t respond to messages Sunday and Monday. Barbour, a Republican, ends his second and final term on Tuesday. He told the AP for a 2008 story that releasing the trusties who live and work at the mansion is a tradition in Mississippi that goes back decades. Trusties are prisoners who earn privileges through good behavior. Joann Martin, a probation officer from Fort Worth, Texas, said Barbour pardoned Anthony McCray, the man who killed her sister. McCray pleaded guilty in 2001 to killing Jennifer Bonds McCray, 38, at Ramsey’s Cafe in Mc-

Comb. The couple apparently had been arguing before the shooting occurred. Anthony McCray left the cafe and returned with a gun. Jennifer McCray was shot once in the back. “It’s very painful for my family that he was released. When he killed her, she had a 3-year-old daughter and a 9-year-old son, who have been raised by my other sister,” Martin said. “It’s a shame before God. It’s almost like you kill somebody and nobody cares.” Mark McAbee said Barbour pardoned the man who killed his uncle, Ricky Montgomery, who died during a store robbery in

Desoto County. McAbee said Joseph Ozment was sentenced to life in prison in 1994 after robbing the store with several other men. “One of the other ones shot my uncle three times. He was crawling toward Joey Ozement for help. He didn’t know Joey Ozment was involved. He was crawling to him for help. Joey Ozment put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger twice,” McAbbe said. He called the pardon “a slap in the face.” Mississippi Department of Corrections officials confirmed Monday morning that Barbour pardoned David Gatlin,

who was convicted of killing his estranged wife and sentenced in 1993 to life in prison. Mississippi Department of Correction officials haven’t responded to questions about the other pardons. The Mississippi Parole Board turned down the 40-year-old Gatlin on Dec. 27, according to a letter dated Jan. 4 and obtained by the AP. The letter did not explain why the Parole Board rejected Gatlin’s parole request. It said he was due for another parole hearing in October. Shannon Warnock, chair of the parole board, didn’t immediately respond to a message Mon-

day. Gatlin was sentenced to life in prison for killing his estranged wife, Tammy Ellis Gatlin, in 1993, and shooting her long-time friend, Randy Walker. Walker survived. The shootings took place in Brandon, Miss. Walker’s mother, Glenda Walker, said Monday that her son is afraid now that Gatlin is free. “I have to watch him be almost paranoid when people knock on his door,” she said Monday in a phone interview. Walker said Gatlin shot his estranged wife while she was holding their young baby, then shot Randy Walker in the head.

Defense lawyers want delay in cancer clinic fraud case BY HOLBROOK MOHR Associated Press

JACKSON — Defense lawyers want a federal judge to give them more time to prepare for trial in the case of a cancer clinic accused of using old syringes and watered-down chemotherapy drugs. Attorneys George Lucas and Cliff Johnson filed motions asking for the delay because they expect prosecutors to hand over thousands more pages of information to review before the Feb. 7 trial. They want the trial postponed until May. Lucas represents the clinic’s former office manager, Brittany McCoskey of Monticello. Johnson is the lawyer for

the clinic’s former billing agent, Monica Weeks of Madison. They asked for the delay in separate motions. McCoskey and Weeks are free on bond. Dr. Meera 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. All three have pleaded not guilty. “According to the government we have already received 160,000 pages of discovery with several thousand more pages that has not been produced to the defendant yet. We

will need additional time to review the documents once we receive them,” Lucas wrote Friday in a motion filed in U.S. District Court in Jackson. “Also, it is very likely that both the government and defendants will need to retain expert witnesses and need the proper amount of time to do so.” Both lawyers said Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Gilbert had no objection to the delay. The Mississippi Health Department closed the Rose Cancer Center on July 20 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 last month contained the first public allegation filed in court that someone contracted 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 has been held without bond because authorities say she is a flight risk. She is a naturalized U.S. citizen from India. Prosecutors said she often traveled overseas and has considerable assets, including bank accounts in her native country, despite the seizure of about $6 million. 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. Prosecutors also say the clinic billed for new syringes for each patient even though it reused some on multiple people.

Super PACs buy time to keep donors secret BY JACK GILLUM Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Independent political groups backing top Republican candidates are taking advantage of federal rules that essentially let them shield the identities of their donors until after important primary elections this month. These political action committees, known as super PACs, notified federal election regulators in recent weeks that they intend to file their financial reports every month. Those requests, once approved, effectively will allow the groups to hold off disclosing the names of their contributors until after primaries in New Hampshire on Tuesday and South Carolina on Jan. 21. Without the change, those groups would have had to file reports before the GOP primaries. That would have given voters a clearer picture of the wealthy activists who could have over-sized influence in the GOP race and the general election. Just this past week, a new political committee supporting former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum made a similar request to the Federal Election Commission. It would delay the next filing deadline to Jan.

31 for the group, called the Red, White and Blue Fund. That’s the date of the Florida primary, after which candidates with little money will find it hard to continue the race. Groups backing GOP candidates Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Jon Huntsman also have said they would begin filing monthly reports, which they said eases administrative burdens. Before then, these PACs filed reports quarterly, a practice they said required submitting tedious reports before each state’s primary. Democraticleaning super PACs have not yet asked for similar extensions. The subtle administrative change is significant because such groups are expected to play a crucial role in this year’s election. In one case, the Romney-leaning Restore Our Future ran a series of attack ads against Gingrich that have been widely cited as a reason for the former House speaker’s plummeting support. Gingrich placed fourth in the Iowa caucuses behind Romney, Santorum and Texas Rep. Ron Paul. “It is secret money — you won’t know until after the primaries have oc-

curred who helped fund them,” said Trevor Potter, a former Republican FEC commissioner and president of the watchdog group Campaign Legal Center. “Whether they’re doing this for the right or wrong reasons, it’s the opposite of what the disclosure system was designed to do.” Robert Kelner, a campaign-finance expert and partner with the Washington law firm Covington & Burling, noted that once the FEC approves the requests, the groups eventually will file disclosure reports more frequently. “It’s sort of in the eye of the beholder if that’s improving or undermining disclosure,” he said. The FEC has already approved requests from Restore Our Future and Huntsman-leaning Our Destiny PAC. The new super PACs sprung from a series of federal court rulings, including the Supreme Court’s Citizens United case in 2010 that stripped away restrictions on corporate and union spending in elections. The groups can’t coordinate directly with campaigns but many of them active in this election are staffed by longtime supporters of the candidates.

U.S. condemns Iranian death sentence for American BY BRADLEY KLAPPER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration denied on Monday that an American man sentenced to death in Iran was a CIA spy, and sharply criticized the Islamic republic in Tehran for what it called a pattern of arresting innocent people for political reasons. White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said officials were still trying to learn the details of the sentence against Amir Mirzaei Hekmati. If true, the U.S. would condemn the verdict, he said. Iran charged that Hekmati received special training and served at U.S. military bases in

Iraq and Afghanistan before heading to Iran for an intelligence mission. A court convicted him of working with a hostile country, belonging to the CIA and trying to accuse Iran of involvement in terrorism, according to a state radio report Monday. “Allegations that Mr. Hekmati either worked for, or was sent to Iran by the CIA are false,” Vietor said in a statement. “The Iranian regime has a history of falsely accusing people of being spies, of eliciting forced confessions, and of holding innocent Americans for political reasons.” The 28-year-old former military translator

A New New Year! As we stand on the brink of another new year, let us think of the many opportunities and struggles it will provide. Let us think of those who will name the name of Christ in baptism, and let us work to help them make the most important decision of their lives. Let us think of those who will come back to the Lord, and let us pray for them and encourage them in every way for good. Let us think of those among us who will leave this world of sin and sorrow for the bright and sunny shores of eternity, where no sin or sorrow may be found, and let us learn from their godly examples. Let us also think of what we will use the new year for...

was born in Arizona and graduated from high school in Michigan. His family is of Iranian origin, and Hekmati claims dual citizenship. His father, Ali, a professor at a community college in Flint, Mich., has said his son was visiting his grandmothers in Iran. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland called the charges against Hekmati a fabrication and demanded his release. The White House said the U.S. would work with its diplomatic partners “to convey our condemnation to the Iranian government.” Swiss diplomats, acting on behalf of the United States because Washington and Tehran don’t have diplomatic relations, have tried unsuccessfully to gain consular access to Hekmati. Iran

doesn’t recognize dual citizenship and considers Americans of Iranian origin to be solely citizens of the Islamic republic. For that reason, the State Department has warned U.S. citizens of Iranian background to avoid visiting the country because of “the risk of being targeted by authorities.” “Iranian authorities have detained and harassed U.S. citizens of Iranian origin,” the department says in its Iran travel warning. Behnaz Hekmati, Amir’s mother, said in an email to The Associated Press that she and her husband are “shocked and terrified” that their son has been sentenced to death. The verdict is “the result of a process that was neither transparent nor fair,” she said. Her son did not engage

Will We Use It For Gaining A Better Knowledge Of God’s Word? There are many good things for us to learn in life, but none begin to compare with the value of a knowledge of the blessed Word of God. It will go with us through all other educational endeavors, it will accompany us through our working years, it will be there for the birth and rearing of our children, it will be there for us in our sickness, even going with us to the grave, and it will stand as a witness to our faithfulness in the after awhile. May we determine to spend some time each day of this new year studying the Bible. May it be of greater importance to us than all other pursuits.

Will We Use It To Mature Spiritually? Will we apply the things we are taught in the Bible to our lives and thereby set a better example before others? Will we be diligent in attendance, showing all the world that there is no place on earth we would rather be than in the assembly of the saints worshipping God? Will we put to practice what the preacher preaches?

Will We Use It To Tell Someone Of Jesus Christ? Remember, our family, friends and neighbors are rushing headlong into judgement. have we told them what God requires of them in order to be saved? We see them daily, and would probably do anything on earth for them, but have we told them how to get to heaven? Is it really so difficult and risky to speak a word in the interest of their souls (Prov. 11:30)?

Will We Use It To Be Of Greater Service To The Church? Will we be among those who volunteer to lead in prayer? Head the table? Make announcements? Will we volunteer to teach a class? You know, teaching is a wonderful way of helping others, but it also allows us to grow and strengthen ourselves in the faith. Will we make ourselves available for service this year? The church is a working institution composed of working members. Will we be such members in the next twelve months?

Will We Use It To Help The Elders Make Things Go Smoothly? Will we refrain from activities that will cause trouble in the church? Will we be sure to be present for each assembly, for the elders have set the times so we may come and be edified and strengthened? Will we be kind to visitors? Will we listen to the teachers and preacher as they feed us the word of God?

If This Should Be Our Last Year On Earth, Will Our Passing Bring Joy Or Sadness To The Angels In Heaven? The Lord loves us all, and wants to see us in heaven; but it is up to us to repent and obey (2 Pet. 3:9-10, Acts 2:38). If we had to leave this world in our present spiritual condition, where would we go? It is a most sobering and serious thought, but if we welcome our last new year this year, what will become of us?

in any acts of spying, or “’fighting against God,” as the convicting judge has claimed in his sentence, she said. “Amir is not a criminal. His very life is being exploited for political gain.” Hekmati’s mother said a “grave error” has been committed and that the family has authorized legal representatives to make direct contract with Iranian authorities to find a solution. “We pray that Iran will show compassion and not murder our son, Amir, a natural born American citizen, who was visiting Iran and his relatives for the first time,” she said. The Marine Corps said Amir Nema Hekmati served between 2001 and 2005, including one deployment to Iraq in 2004 and a stint at the military language institute in Monterey, Calif. The Marine records do not indicate any deployment to Afghanistan. It was not clear why the middle name was listed differently. The sentence against Hekmati comes amid heightened U.S.-Iranian tensions. The Obama administration has approved new sanctions against Iran over its disputed nuclear enrichment program, specifically targeting the regime’s central bank and its ability to sell petroleum abroad, but the stronger penalties have not taken effect. Iran has responded with warnings to American vessels against entering the Strait of Hormuz, the strategic waterway that carries to market much of the oil pumped in the

Middle East. Obama approved the new penalties against Iran on New Year’s Eve, despite his administration’s fears they could lead to a spike in global oil prices or cause economic hardship on American allies in Europe and Asia that are still importing petroleum from Iran. The measures affect foreign financial institutions doing business with Iran’s central bank by barring them from doing business in the United States. They would apply to foreign central banks as well for transactions related to petroleum. But the sanctions won’t take effect for six months. The president also can waive them for national security reasons or if the country in question significantly reduces its purchases of Iranian oil. The State Department says it is trying to implement the law in a way that maximizes pressure on Tehran while causing minimal disruption to the U.S. and its allies. American officials are concerned that Hekmati’s case may become a political tool for the Iranian government. Having imposed the worst possible sentence immediately, Iran could now seek to drag the case out. In past cases Iran has held out the possibility of releasing American prisoners on humanitarian grounds, presumably in the hopes of gaining a counter-concession from Washington. September’s release of a pair of American hikers held captive by Iran for two years is the most recent example.

Set for disappointment? Financial analysts are getting more pessimistic about this earnings season with each day. Companies will report their results for the October-December period over the next four weeks. Since the end of 2009, earnings have been consistently strong. That drove the gains in stocks until worries about the U.S. economy and the debt crisis in Europe halted the rally last spring. This earnings season, analysts expect companies in the S&P 500 to report that profits rose 11 percent from a year earlier. That may sound strong, but those same analysts expected an increase of 19 percent at the end of September. They cut their estimates over the last three months at the sharpest rate since the first quarter of 2009, FactSet says. Here’s why analysts are lowering their estimates: • Europe’s debt crisis means weaker sales for U.S. companies in the region. Whirlpool said Oct. 28 that demand fell sharply in parts of Europe for its

appliances. Before the announcement, analysts expected fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.99. Today, they expect $1.79, or 40 percent less. • Investors fear that companies will do less business in emerging markets. The economies of those countries are slowing as demand drops from Europe and other developed nations. RF Micro Devices, a maker of components for wireless phones, said Thursday that demand from China was weaker than expected. Pacific Crest analyst Nathan Johnsen cut his estimate for earnings per share last quarter by 73 percent, to 3 cents from 11 cents. • Retailers were forced to heavily mark prices down during the holiday shopping season. Target and Kohl’s have lowered their earnings forecasts. To be sure, the lowered estimates mean it’s now easier for companies to beat expectations. But what stocks do when earnings are announced may depend on what companies say about 2012.

Another step in Europe?

How do you compete with the growing dominance of smartphones? The makers of tablets, cameras and other gadgets will try to answer that as the International Consumer Electronics Show begins in Las Vegas. Electronics makers are faced with the sobering fact that sales of consumer electronics fell nearly 6 percent during the holiday season, according to research company NPD Group. Smartphones that take pictures and work like computers are taking away sales of the bigger gadgets. Smartphone demo at CES

The Labor Department’s look at the number of job openings posted in November may seem old because it comes after Friday’s report of a big jump in new jobs in December. But the report known as the Job Openings and Turnover Survey has shown the past few months that more employers are considering hiring. In September, the number of openings hit a three-year high of 3.4 million. October’s number dipped to 3.3 million. But the trend has been encouraging. Worker in Wayne, Mic higan

Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel meets with Christine Lagarde, head of the International Monetary Fund. The meeting follows Monday’s statement from Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy that they’re prepared to consider speeding up payments into Europe’s rescue fund, the European Stability Mechanism, to increase confidence in the region’s attempts to resolve its financial problems. Merkel said after the meeting that fixing the debt crisis will have to be done “step by step.” Lagarde and Merkel

Dampeer tackling another project BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

Eight combined athletes from Corinth and Biggersville garnered top recognition from their respective divisions following annual meetings by the league’s coaches. Six Warriors were named to the AllDivision 1-4A first team after CHS finished second in the six-team league. Corinth was bumped up to Class 4A after spending the last 16 years as a 3A program. A pair of Lions — Darrien Williams (WR) and Mark Hamlin (OL) — were named to the Super 22 squad for Division 1-1A. • Lew Johnson was Corinth’s lone offensive representative as the squad’s quarterback. The two-year starter passed for over 1,000 yards, and 11 scores, was second on the team in rushing with over 600 yards and tallied a team-high seven TDs while averaging over 30 yards on kickoff returns, including a 91-yard score. Five Warriors were selected to the defensive unit, including the linebacking tandem of Kyoshi Agnew and Jose Contreras. Both sophomores registered over 100 tackles, including game highs of 19 by Agnew and 17 by Contreras. Davorius James was pegged as a defensive lineman after racking up 13.5 sacks. Debrico Agnew, who had over 1,100 yards and 11 scores from scrimmage, was selected as a defensive back where he had nearly 50 tackles, three interceptions and three other pass break-ups. John Mathis was chosen at punter after averaging 35.8 yards per kick, including a long of 65. The senior, who also kicked 33 extra points and six field goals, had 15 of his 43 boots downed inside the 20. Second team selections included Deione Weeks at wide receiver and Randy Hill on the defensive line. • Back in 1-1A, Blake Stacy earned second team honors at quarterback. A trio of Lions — Marquis Watson, Darrien Barnett and Darious Carroll — were honorable mentions.

SELMER, Tenn. — Former Kossuth coach Charlie Dampeer is returning to the Crossroads area as the new football coach at McNairy Central. Dampeer spent the last season as the head coach at Lincoln High in Talladega, Ala. Coach Dampeer, 52, is well known as a rebuilding expert at various schools throughout his career. He makes it plain he is planning on MCHS being the last stop of his career. He spent nine years as coach at Kossuth, including an unbeaten regular season in 1998. “This is my last stop and I want to make it a success be-

cause I am not ready to quit coaching,” said Dampeer. “I want to get up there as quickly as possible and get to know everyone. I plan on living in McNairy County and getting involved in the community.” Dampeer said his father, Charles Dampeer, was a former pastor at Iuka Baptist Church and is now in a nursing home in Iuka. He said being closer to him was another factor in moving back to this area. A coach that excels in rebuilding programs says there is no secret to turning around a football team. “I did not intend on getting a name of rebuilding programs, but it just sort of happened,” said Dampeer. “I would just get a call and

ask me to come fix their program.” The excitement is clear in Dampeer’s voice as he plans on taking over at McNairy Central. He hopes to meet the team later this week or early next week. “McNairy Central is a proud program that has been down a little bit and we hope to change that,” said Dampeer. “We want to get the players to believe in us and learn how to execute on the field. We know the key to winning is execution on Friday nights.” Dampeer knows a key to improving the morale on the team and in the community is ‘the product on the field.’ “It all happens on the field and a winning team can

change everything,” said Dampeer. “Football on Friday night is supposed to be fun and we are going to do our best to make it happen at McNairy Central.” An excellent motivator, Dampeer has a reputation of convincing athletes to play football where he has coached in the past. “We make a list every year of anyone that we feel can help us and we try to get them on the team,” Dampeer said. His other coaching stops have been Saltillo, Tishomingo County, Pontotoc, Columbus Caldwell and Mendenhall. MCHS finished 2-8 last season. Dampeer will replace Jim Glover, who resigned after the season.

Alabama’s Jeremy Shelley (90) has a field goal blocked during the first half of the BCS National Championship college football game against LSU Monday in New Orleans.

Alabama beats LSU 21-0 for BCS title RALPH D. RUSSO Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — Jeremy Shelley kicked five field goals and Trent Richardson broke a 34-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter as No. 2 Alabama beat No. 1 LSU 21-0 on Monday night — the first shutout in BCS title game history. Richardson swept around left end and raced down the sideline to the end zone with 4:36 left for the first touch-

down between the Southeastern Conference rivals in more than 115 minutes of play and one overtime period. Alabama (12-1) had put it away before that as Shelley kicked field goals of 23, 34, 41, 35 and 44 yards in the first three quarters to make it 15-0, matching an all-bowl record. He also missed two field goals and an extra-point attempt. But this time, the missed kicks didn’t matter to the Tide.

The Tigers (13-1) and Tide met on Nov. 5 in what was dubbed the Game of the Century, and the Tigers won a touchdown-less, defensive standoff, 9-6 in overtime. Alabama went 2 for 6 on field goals in Tuscaloosa. Richardson, the Heisman Trophy finalist, ran for 96 yards on 20 carries and offensive player of the game A.J. McCarron passed for 234 yards as the Tide had no problem moving against LSU’s

second-ranked defense in the nation — just not into the end zone. Alabama’s top-ranked defense didn’t need much help. With All-American linebacker Dont’a Hightower leading the way, the Tide held LSU to 92 total yards and five first downs. For the Tide, it’s the second BCS championship in the last three years under coach Nick Saban, who also won a title at LSU in 2003.

Larkin elected to baseball Hall of Fame The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Barry Larkin had no idea back in 1982 that he would become a baseball Hall of Famer thanks to Bo Schembechler. A two-sport standout in his senior year of high school, Larkin went to the University of Michigan on a scholarship to play defensive back for Schembechler’s Wolverines. When he arrived in Ann Arbor, Larkin learned he was being redshirted. “I was a better football player than a baseball player at the time,” Larkin recalled. “And that was influential because I just worked

on my baseball talent, just that alone. And that was an eye-opener because I got so much better.” So much better that he was elected to the Hall of Fame on Monday with plenty of room to spare. The former Cincinnati Reds shortstop was chosen on 495 of 573 ballots (86 percent) in voting announced by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America, well above the necessary 75 percent. Larkin was on the ballot for the third time after falling 75 votes short last year. He will be inducted July 22 in Cooperstown along with

the late Ron Santo, elected last month by the Veterans Committee. “I’m just incredibly, incredibly moved by this whole experience and so humbled by the experience and so excited about being the newest member of the Hall of Fame,” Larkin said on a conference call. His election came in the final year before the Steroids Era becomes the main focus in balloting. Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Sammy Sosa, Mike Piazza, Craig Biggio and Curt Schilling are eligible for the first time next year.

Jack Morris followed Larkin with 382 votes (67 percent), missing by 48 votes on his 13th try but up sharply from 54 percent last year. Morris, the ace of three World Series winners, finished with 254 victories and was the winningest pitcher of the 1980s. His 3.90 ERA, however, is higher than that of any Hall of Famer. He has two chances left on the BBWAA ballot. Gil Hodges (63.4 percent in 1983) has the highest percentage among players who never gained election. Please see LARKIN | 9

NFL, ex-players want concussion suits heard The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — The National Football League hopes to consolidate in Philadelphia a string of lawsuits filed across the country by former players who say they’ve suffered concussion-related brain injuries. Seven former players filed the first such lawsuit last summer in Philadelphia, where a similar lawsuit filed Monday seeks more than $5 million for more than 100 ex-players. Other lawsuits are pending or expected in California, Florida, New York and elsewhere, said lawyer Sol Weiss, who’s

involved in the first lawsuit. A hearing is set for Jan. 26 in Miami for the parties to ask a federal judicial panel to consolidate the cases before a U.S. District Court judge in Philadelphia. The NFL requested the move to avoid trying related litigation in several districts, according to its motion. The lawsuit filed Monday seeks damages for traumatic brain injuries and neurodegenerative disorders on behalf of 106 former players, including former Minnesota Vikings offensive lineman Brent Boyd and three Hall of Famers: De-

troit Lions cornerback Lem Barney, Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Joe DeLamielleure and Vikings defensive back Paul Krause. Boyd, his lawyers said, is the only living player to be diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative disease that is found in people who’ve had multiple head injuries and whose symptoms can include memory loss. He has started an organization called Dignity After Football to help former players who are disabled or lack league pensions. Attorney Richard Lewis,

one of those who filed the lawsuit, said in a statement that as the NFL prepares for the Super Bowl on Feb. 5, “it has forgotten about the legacy of its former players, many of whom built the league and are now suffering from the devastating consequences of on-field head injuries.” The league pledges to vigorously fight accusations it failed to protect players, a spokesman said. “The NFL has long made player safety a priority and continues to take steps to proPlease see NFL | 9

SEC Women Associated Press

LEXINGTON — Keyla Snowden scored 22 points as No. 11 Kentucky beat Mississippi State 88-40 on Sunday. Kentucky (14-2, 3-0 Southeastern Conference) set a school record for its margin of victory in SEC play, eclipsing a 31-point win over Auburn last Feb. 3. The Wildcats, who host No. 6 Tennessee on Thursday night, also set a school record by hitting 14 3-pointers. Diamber Johnson had 13 points to lead Mississippi State (10-5, 0-2), which shot 28 percent from the field. The Bulldogs were without second-leading scorer Porsha Porter, who was out with an illness. Kentucky dominated from the opening tip, scoring the game’s first nine points while forcing Mississippi State into turnovers on six of their first eight possessions. The Wildcats led 50-21 at halftime. No. 24 Vanderbilt 68, Ole Miss 52 At Nashville, Tenn., Tiffany Clarke matched a season-high with 19 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead No. 24 Vanderbilt over Mississippi. Jasmine Lister added 15 points and Christina Foggie had 11 for the Commodores (13-2, 1-1), who bounced back from a Southeastern Conference-opening loss at South Carolina on Thursday. Nikki Byrd, the league’s leading rebounder, had 15 points and 13 rebounds for Mississippi (10-6, 0-3). Valencia McFarland chipped in with 10 points including two 3-pointers for the Rebels, playing their first SEC road game. Clarke scored seven of Vanderbilt’s first nine points to open the second half, and Foggie had seven straight points in an 11-0 run, including her only 3-pointer, that put Vanderbilt up 45-33. Byrd sat out with her fourth foul for almost 2 minutes during Foggie’s 7-0 streak.

CONTINUED FROM 8

Playing from 1986-04 — all with his hometown Reds — Larkin hit .295 with 198 home runs, 960 RBIs, 2,340 hits and 379 stolen bases. A 12-time All-Star, he won the 1995 NL MVP award, nine Silver Slugger trophies and three Gold Gloves. He helped the Reds win the 1990 World Series and in 1996 became the first shortstop to have 30 homers and 30 steals in a season. Larkin’s brother Mike, who was a year older, was recruited by Schembechler but decided to follow coach Gerry Faust from Archbishop Moeller High School in Cincinnati to Notre Dame. “So Bo told my mother that he was going to get her next son,” Larkin said. Larkin became a baseball star at Michigan, which retired his No. 16 two years ago. He developed under coach Bud Middaugh and assistant Danny Hall, who is now Georgia Tech’s coach. “Those two guys really beat it in my head the correct way to play the game,” Larkin said. “Because neither was a

home run hitter, neither one was one of the most gifted, if you will, they were both very good at the Xs and Os, at the hitting behind the runner, at the mental part of the game.” Cincinnati, which drafted Larkin in the second round in 1982, took him with the fourth overall pick in 1985. Schembechler, who became president of the Detroit Tigers, used to kid Larkin about his career path. “Bo always told me he would strike me out, anyway. That was Bo’s way of saying, ‘Congratulations kid, you did it,”’ Larkin remembered. “He would always tell me: ‘You’ll be back. You’ll miss football. Nobody comes to the University of Michigan to play baseball,’ is what he used to say.” Larkin becomes the fourth Hall of Famer with ties to the university, following Branch Rickey (who coached the baseball team while attending the law school), George Sisler and Charlie Gehringer. Looking back, Larkin feels fortunate. He got 52 percent when he appeared on the ballot for the first time in 2010. This year, he received the largest sin-

gle-year percentage increase to gain election since 1948, when pitcher Herb Pennock was elected with 77.7 percent, a year after finishing with 53.4 percent. Larkin is the 48th Hall of Famer who spent his entire career with one major league team and the third from the Reds, joining Johnny Bench and Bid McPhee. He credits Tony Perez and Dave Concepcion for helping influence his career, and recalled fondly how he learned Spanish to better communicate with his teammates. With no big contenders among first-time eligibles, several holdovers saw increases from last year: Jeff Bagwell (42 percent to 56 percent), Lee Smith (45 to 51), Tim Raines (38 to 49), Alan Trammell (24 to 37) and Edgar Martinez (33 to 37). Bernie Williams received the most votes (55) among players who were eligible for the first time. Bill Mueller got just four votes and will be dropped in future years, along with Juan Gonzalez (23) and Vinny Castilla (six). Nine voters submitted blank ballots.

Mark McGwire, 10th on the career home run list with 583, received 19.5 percent in his sixth try, down from 19.8 percent last year and 23.7 percent in 2010 — a vote before he admitted using steroids and human growth hormone. Rafael Palmeiro, among just four players with 500 homers and 3,000 hits along with Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Eddie Murray, got 72 votes and his percentage increased to 12.6 from 11 last year in his first appearance. Palmeiro received a 10-day suspension in 2005 for a positive test for performanceenhancing drugs, claiming it was due to a vitamin vial given to him by teammate Miguel Tejada. Gonzalez, a two-time AL MVP implicated by Jose Canseco in steroids use, received 30 votes last year, just above the 5 percent threshold for remaining on the ballot. In 2014, the focus will turn to elite pitchers when Greg Maddux (355 wins) and Tom Glavine (305) become eligible. Among pitchers eligible for the Hall, all 20 of the 300game winners are in.

LARKIN: ‘Those two guys really beat it in my head the correct way to play the game,’

Any suggestion to the contrary has no merit.” Weiss, the Philadelphia attorney, represents two-time Super Bowl champion Jim McMahon and six others who filed the first potential class action lawsuit on the issue in August. They accuse the NFL of trying to conceal any links between football and brain in-

juries. The lawsuit accuses the NFL of negligence and intentional misconduct in its response to the headaches, dizziness and dementia that former players have reported. It seeks medical monitoring along with funds to pay for the care of injured players. Some analysts have ques-

tioned how players’ lawyers can prove their clients were injured during their NFL days and not earlier, during youth or college football. But Weiss said he doesn’t expect that to be a big hurdle at trial. “There is a lot of footage taken by NFL Films over the years,” Weiss said Monday. “I don’t see it as a problem.”

Horoscopes After the recent outpouring of feeling inspired by the Cancer full moon, some will feel slightly drained and drawn to the sort of practical tasks that don’t require much emotional investment, such as paying bills, shopping and cleaning up. For those who care to recount the details of the past few days, the Leo moon favors the storytellers. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Think big, and everything will go smoothly. You’ll feel powerful and move swiftly forward without worry, doubt, bickering or hesitation. You’ll make a bold move. TAURUS (April 20May 20). What’s the use in wondering whether the gray parts of life are mostly black or mostly white? You see each color, tone and mood as uniquely its own, and you embrace it for what it is. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Instead of worrying about whether you’ll ultimately be happy or disappointed in the outcome of a project, you’ll view it from a stance of interest and discovery. You’re a lighthearted genius. CANCER (June 22July 22). The ones who love you want to show you just how much. But they can’t. It’s too deep to express. Just know that your loved ones have your back if you ever need them, just like you have theirs. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Don’t wait until you’re satisfied with all the uncertainties to present your project to the world. That day will never come. There always will be unanswered questions. That’s why you need partners. Show them what you have. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are times when looking back is helpful, but today you will have better things to do. Instead of reliving scenes from your childhood, you’ll create some new traditions. LIBRA (Sept. 23Oct. 23). It’s called a “relationship” because you’re supposed to be relating to one another. When that fails to happen, it’s something to remedy right away, or risk losing the connection altogether. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). Be brave. Stop your participation in a less than ideal situation so that you can focus on attracting what you really want. Once you let go, new opportunities will rush in to fill the void. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be in the energy of gratitude all day, giving thanks for the kindnesses that others extend to you. Your heart opens a little more with every “thank you” that passes your lips. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The parachute was invented

more than a century before the airplane -- so people could escape burning buildings. The same behavior that once got you out of a small disaster will now help you float freely. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). You usually spend your time helping others, learning about the world and having fun. So today’s focus on making a name for yourself and finding your place in the material world may feel strange. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have no problem letting go of what is holding you back. Identifying it is a bit trickier. A wise friend will give you hints about it. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 10). An influx of money and assistance signals that you’re on the right track to creating the year you envisioned. March brings a wave of invention and innovation. Income sources open in April. Paying for children’s teams or lessons is worthwhile, and all benefit from this in the end. June is your lucky month for love. Leo and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 21, 22, 35 and 11. STRESS AND YOUR SIGN: Each sign is different when it comes to stress. What one sign considers taxing another finds exciting, and tension remedies vary from sign to sign, as well. How does your sign deal with the more unnerving aspects of life? TAURUS: GOOD STRESS: Taurus is motivated by audacious long-term goals. While others might be daunted by the size of such aims and inclined to give up too soon, Taurus is uniquely suited to sectioning the pursuit into doable chunks and creating daily tasks that will consistently move things along. BAD STRESS: Taurus is a sensual creature and is well attuned to environmental particulars. Sensory distractions will be an issue for the bull. Too much noise, visual clutter, and a lack of fresh air or cheery light could have Taurus feeling too anxious to perform well. STRESS BUSTER: Anticipating environments and endeavoring to make things as pleasing and comfortable as possible will help Taurus relax. Basic items such as earplugs, music on a headset, a book light, a flashlight, a snack and a sweater could make all the difference in Taurus’ comfort and stress level.

Caring neighbors look after child DEAR ABBY: “Friend of a Lonely Child” (Nov. 7) complained his wife didn’t like him befriending the neighbor boy, “Donny,” whose father is terminally ill. Many years ago, I was that child. My home life was a mess, and the neighbors ended up raising me and teaching me about life. I am positive the only reason I didn’t end up in prison was the concern of those people. Mr. and Mrs. P. taught me manners and work ethic, Mr. and Mrs. M. schooled me in kindness and compassion, and the local store owner, Mr. R., taught me economics. He’d never let my credit go over $3, and he’d charge me a quarter a week if I didn’t pay it off! Here I am at 51, having never made a credit card interest payment or taken a loan to term, thanks to him. I loved those neighbors more than I loved my own family. “Friend,” your wife is right. You can’t save everyone, but a little kindness and mentoring can change a child’s life. And all it will cost you is a little time. — THANKFUL FOR OHIO NEIGHBORS DEAR THANKFUL:

Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby

Like you, m a n y readers encouraged this man to continue in his role of father figure. My newspaper read-

ers comment: DEAR ABBY: I have two daughters who are now grown. Many of their friends spent a lot of time in our home and at our dinner table. Many of them were from troubled backgrounds. Sharing our home with others never deprived our daughters of love and attention. Instead, they learned the importance of giving. After the friends grew up I was surprised and touched when they told me how much the time we shared had meant to them. I never realized I was making a difference. Abby, “Friend’s” wife is blessed to have such a caring husband. Yes, sometimes we are our brother’s keeper. — CHRIS IN ARIZONA DEAR ABBY: As a single mom of a son, I was fortunate to have men around who took him

under their wings. They provided friendship, male bonding and examples of how a true man treats a woman. I never fail to express my thanks to their wives and family members for allowing their husbands and fathers to spend time with my son. Because of it, he has become a better man and future husband. Maybe “Friend” and his wife can set predetermined times at which Donny can visit for male companionship. — PROUD MOM IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR ABBY: As the mother of two daughters, I didn’t have a great deal of interaction with 10-year-old boys until my nephew came to stay with us for an entire summer. His father was gravely ill and succumbed while the boy was living with us. As his mom dealt with his father’s death, our nephew became a member of our household. It ended up being a tremendous experience. “Friend’s” wife needs to open her heart. She’ll be given a wonderful gift and help a child in the process. — PHYLIS IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR ABBY: Big Brothers/Big Sisters is

an excellent organization, but it cannot replace the more frequent contact of a neighbor who recognizes and empathizes with the boy’s fatherless situation. If “Friend’s” heart leads him to mentor the neighbor boy, he should continue to build that friendship. Whether or not his wife feels the same shouldn’t guide his actions. One makes many commitments to one’s spouse, but closing one’s eyes and heart to those in need isn’t one of them. — DENNIS IN KANSAS DEAR ABBY: It’s a pity the wife doesn’t recognize that her daughters have a chance to see a man at his best -- caring for and protecting someone in need. The girls will seek these qualities in the men they bring into their lives, and it will add joy to the entire family. The best families always have plenty of love to go around for everyone. — STEPHEN IN EUGENE, ORE.

Sheen donates $25,000 to Alabama tornado relief BY JAY REEVES Associated Press

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Actor Charlie Sheen quietly donated $25,000 to help tornado relief in Alabama, making good on a pledge to help survivors of the deadly twisters even though some had doubted his promises. The head of Tuscaloosa’s tourism agency, Don Staley, said a representative of Sheen recently turned over money that came in through a fundraising website that the actor set up after tornadoes last spring killed about 250 people in Alabama, including 52 in the west Alabama city. Sheen wrote a check for about $15,000 after the website generated just $10,000 in contributions. “He said he wanted to raise $25,000, and he made good on that,” said Bob Maron, one of Sheen’s managers. Sheen visited Tuscaloosa after the April 27 twisters in response to messages from thenUniversity of Alabama student David Harris, who had sent tweets to celebrities asking them to help out. Sheen — who had been fired the previous month from the hit sitcom “Two and a Half Men” — talked about staging a relief show and celebrity ball game to raise $25,000. Months passed and many of Sheen’s plans didn’t materialize, leading some to wonder whether he’d forgotten about the town of more than 80,000. But the actor donated the money without any public announcement around Dec. 1, said Donny Jones of the West Alabama Chamber of Com-

merce, which is helping manage the Tuscaloosa Disaster Relief Fund, which received the donation. Staley, who accompanied Sheen during his daylong visit to Alabama, said the actor just wanted to help. “The man delivered,” Staley said Wednesday. “He’s a man of his word.” Tornadoes that ravaged the South last April badly damaged or destroyed thousands of homes and businesses in Alabama. After touring the destruction and visiting with survivors and relief workers, Sheen posted a photo and message on Twitter that called the scene “beyond words.” Sheen sent autographed photos and baseballs to Tuscaloosa along with DVD box sets of “Two and a Half Men” after his visit. A website set up by Sheen to accept donations for Tuscaloosa through Paypal is no longer taking money, and Harris said he had assumed Sheen wouldn’t follow through after losing touch. “I tried to contact him and never heard back, so I just thought nothing would happen,” Harris said. “I’m glad he helped out.” Maron said the actor’s plans for a concert didn’t pan out when performers backed out after a tornado decimated Joplin, Mo., just weeks after the Alabama outbreak. “They said, ‘Hey, we can’t just single them out for attention, and Charlie felt the same way,” Maron said Thursday.

Don’t give up on resolutions 2012. Sounds good. Twelve has all those nice connections. The Twelve Tribes of Israel. The Twelve Apostles. Twelve Days of Christmas. A dozen eggs. So once I’ve written it wrong on two or three checks (then scratched the 11 out and scribbled it in right), I’ll be quite satisfied to be living in 2012. Especially if I manage to keep my New Year’s resolutions. They are, of course, the same ole, same ole. More exercise. Less sweets. Write more. Read less junk. Worry not at all. (It’s just a bad habit — or so a fellow named Dale Carnegie used to say. No fretting or fuming! Do something

about it or Let It Go.) I will once again resolve to keep in betRyland ter touch Bruhwiler with those I love — Columnist especially the grandkids scattered across the country from Colorado to California. I’ll try to attack the nitty gritty with more regularity. (We’re talking about my old friend vacuuming here. And scrubbing sinks and toilets and even, perhaps, a window now and then.) I’ll take my calcium. Daily. Build a chicken coop. Maybe. Work through my files, pitching and organizing. Get the photos out of all those no-name boxes

and into albums! Every year I keep saying I’ll sew or paint at least every other day. Try a new recipe once a week. Do something good for the community. Stop and pet the critters. Stop and pray . . . Except for that chicken coop, this list is -- more or less -- the same I’ve had for decades. I find it jotted down in battered spiral notebooks and on yellowed index cards. So should I pitch the New Year’s Wish List? Shrug my shoulders and Give It Up? Nah. Something in me says, Keep on jotting it down. More or less, it does come true. One well-known “secret” to making things happen is to join forces with other folks. For instance, for years I

wanted to read the Bible from beginning to end. I know lots of bits and pieces. How would it feel to have a sense of the whole? Alas. I could never make myself slog through all of Genesis, much less the other 65 books. So when the priest at my husband’s church started a Torah Study last year, I signed up, and we’ve been faithfully slogging our way (harumph; I mean, of course, devoutly perusing) through chapter after chapter of even the dullest sections of Leviticus and Deuteronomy. You know: all those begats and dietary laws and detailed instructions on whether to sacrifice a she-goat or a turtledove if you break one of the Commandments or break out in a rash.

Gulf Coast cheering for BCS game BY MARY FOSTER Associated Press

This is one red tide the Mississippi Gulf Coast is happy to see. Local merchants say Alabama residents appear to be delighted to be hanging out on the sandy beaches of the coast instead of the narrow old streets of New Orleans’ French Quarter before the Crimson Tide took on the LSU Tigers for the BCS title played Monday night. Taryn Sammons, spokeswoman for the Mississippi Gulf Coast Convention and Visitors Bureau, said ads went out to Alabama last month to persuade fans to stay on the coast at bowl time, and it’s paid off big time. “We did all our advertising in Alabama,”

said Sammons. “I’d say about 99 percent of the people we’re seeing are from there.” Mississippi offered a number of incentives, including hotel and restaurant packages and buses to take fans to New Orleans on game day. New Orleans can’t complain much — many hotels and restaurants are booked up. The joke making the rounds in the hotels, shops, restaurants and other businesses along the beach is that a rising Crimson Tide raises all their boats. “This has turned out to be just fantastic,” said Lindy Hornsby of the Mississippi Hotel and Lodging Association. “It’s turning out to be thousands of room

nights at a time that would normally be a terribly slow period.” The location of the coast between Alabama and New Orleans — about an hour from each — makes it a natural for people driving in, Sammons said. “It’s kind of a halfway point,” she said. Hard hit, first by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and then the BP oil spill in 2010, tourism is slowly rebounding on the Gulf coast. Officials hope this will be a long-term boost as visitors see the area has rebuilt and the beaches are once again open. “We’re hoping to get people who have not been here for a while so they can see all we have to offer and come back,” Sammons said. At Beau Rivage, the

largest hotel and casino on the coast, a fullhouse is expected, with the addition of the BCS crowd and a $1 million poker tournament. “We see a lot of Alabama red everywhere,” said hotel spokeswoman Mary Spain. “There’s a really nice energy everywhere.” For people booking reservations through the Hotel and Lodging Association, the package includes two seats on the buses headed to New Orleans on game day. Those with other accommodations can buy tickets for $60 each, Hornsby said. “They can take their own drinks and snacks (on the ride),” she said. “They can party over and back and have time in the French Quarter as well.”
