April 15 has come and gone, but just because Tax Day is in the rearview mirror that hasn’t slowed some con artists trying to prey on innocent victims. Alexander City Police Chief Willie G. Robinson said that in the last two days, three separate residents have called to report what appears to be a scam where callers threaten the resident saying that they owe money to the Internal Revenue Service. “Someone like the IRS is already going to have all of your information, and they do not collect via the telephone or Internet,” Robinson said. “If you haven’t gotten a notice in the mail, then chances are a call that says they are with the IRS is a fake.” Robinson said the incidents reported in recent days are very similar and could be linked or from the same party. He said that in addition to saying the resident owes money, they create urgency and attempt to get a bank account number, debit card number or a credit card to satisfy the “unpaid balance.” He said the call and anyone asking for the kind of information should send up a red flag. “If they start asking for See SCAM, Page A5

Reeltown High School is one of almost 4,000 high schools nationally and 108 in Alabama recognized by U.S. News and World Report after a study of 19,753 high schools by the news publication and the North Carolina-based global nonprofit social science research firm RTI International. Reeltown was the only Tallapoosa County school recognized by the publication, which required that students at the school perform statistically better than students statewide, disadvantaged students at the school perform statistically better than economically disadvantaged students statewide and students meet benchmarks for

college readiness test data. “After looking at their methodology, I’m very proud of Reeltown High School, the faculty, the staff and the students,” said Joe Windle, superintendent of Tallapoosa County Schools. “It’s very impressive to be selected a U.S. News & World Report Bronze Medal high school and to be ranked among the top 108 high schools in the state.” “The ranking is based on math and reading scores and I like the fact that it gives schools credit not only for the way they are preparing those students who are looking to college, but also those that may not have the opportunity to go to college.”
Come October, Coosa County could have a Chamber of Commerce once again. “We are trying to create a positive business environment in Coosa County by forming a Chamber of Commerce,” Kathy Fulmer said. “It is a very grassroots effort.” Fulmer and her husband Doug are in the process of opening a small campground in Coosa County – Goldmine Ridge Camp. “We have had property here for about 15 years and like the area,” Fulmer said. Both Fulmer’s still work for Disney, but would like to see things in Coosa County work out. “We are a little outdoorsy you could

The Outlook
DEAR ABBY: I have been with my husband for 10 years. We were married six months ago. Before the wedding, we had some breakups. During one of them, he dated another woman briefly. The encounter led to her becoming pregnant, and she gave birth to a boy who is now a year old. I learned about her and her pregnancy five months before our wedding, but we have been able to work through it with intense counseling. Last week, I received a Facebook message from a woman who advised me that my husband had approached her at the gym and said he was single, so they went on a date. After our wedding he stopped seeing her, but continued contacting her. She figured something was up, and found pictures of me and my husband on Facebook. When she told him she knew he was married, he stopped calling and texting. She said she knew him for only a week and didn’t have sex with him.
DEAR ABBY: Recently, my mother divorced her second husband (not my father). It was ugly. She has been down in the dumps, and I’m doing my best to console her. She wants to get rid of his last name, which is underDEAR ABBY: I’m a girl in standable, but she wants to my early teens.

Alabama was among three states– along with Minnesota and South Dakota – that did not give U.S. News permission to use their schools’ Advanced Placement data. High Schools in Alabama and Minnesota were rated on international baccalaureate test data. South Dakota had no international baccalaureate test data. Data from the study showed Reeltown with math proficiency score of 3.2 and a reading proficiency of 3.0. Both are measurements of student performance on the state proficiency exam. Reeltown’s math proficiency rating was the highest in the county. Both Benjamin Russell and Dadeville had a 3.1 and Horseshoe Bend a 2.9. In reading, Benjamin Russell led all county schools at 3.1. Reeltown and Horseshoe Bend had 3.0 and Dadeville 2.9. The study also looked at the demographics of each school, including economic indicators. According to the study, Dadeville High and Benjamin Russell had the largest minority enrollments at 54 and 41 percent, respectively. Reeltown had a 30 percent minority enrollment and Horseshoe Bend 10 percent. Dadeville had the largest percentage of students that were disadvantaged economically – meaning they received free or reduced-price lunches – at 75 percent. Reeltown had 64 percent, Horseshoe Bend 58 percent and Benjamin Russell 44 percent.
Scam personal information and start seeking account information, you know they are not legitimate,â€? Robinson said. “The IRS simply doesn’t operate that way.â€? Robinson said one tool to combat these calls is to tell them to send you some documentation and then you will get in touch with them. Ask for names, phone numbers and tell the caller you will get back with them, Robinson said. He said then if there is any doubt, call the IRS. “If you have any doubt or think you may owe, call the IRS,â€? Robinson said. “The number is 1-800-829-1040. You may have to wait a little, but that’s the one way to be sure. If you think you have been a victim, you can also contact the IRS or us here at the police department.â€? The IRS says that any one of these five things is a tell-tale sign of a scam. The IRS says they will never: • Call to demand immediate payment, nor about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill. • Demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe. • Require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card. • Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone. • Threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying. If you get a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS and asking for money, here’s what you should do: • If you know you owe taxes or think you might owe, call the IRS

The ranger, whose name was not released Tuesday, was responding to a call of a possible tree obstructing the roadway, planning to block to road to help warn motorists when a pole went down across his patrol unit as it traveled on County Road 128 near Wind Creek. He remained calm in radio transmissions as he described his situation. “There are trees down and a pole and there are live wires on top of my unit,” the ranger told dispatchers. “It has the road blocked in both directions, so I don’t know the best way to tell you how to get here.” Fire units, utility crews and officers were dispatched, but ran into issues getting to the officer from Coven Abbett. They were forced to use Highway 63 to get to Highway 128 after encountering multiple trees obstructing the roadway. Tallapoosa County Commissioner Steve Robinson mobilized his highway crew. He said that in addition to county workers and utility crews from the city and Alabama Power, the Alexander City
Recuse Squad and others all were working in the area to help. Every law enforcement agency was also called on to direct traffic and help clear roads when possible. “With the ranger, what happened was a very large pine tree fell across lines and as the weight stretched and stretched the lines – the pole finally gave way and it came down across his vehicle,” Robinson said. “The power company was able to de-energize the lines so people they could get him free.” In addition to the issues on Highway 128 and Coven Abbett, trees were reported down on Brick Plant Road, Elkahatchee Road and in two locations on Newman Road. In two of those cases, power lines were also damaged. Power outages were reported in pockets in several, including along the Highway 63 corridor. Dollar General as well as homes all around Wind Creek and on Coven Abbett were dark for hours Tuesday evening. At Wind Creek State Park, a truck and a camper were damaged as a tree toppled on top of them. Others said Tuesday night
that they saw some damage, but most had scrambled to get to bathhouses and vehicles before the worst of the storm hit. Scanner traffic indicated that there were multiple trees down on park property. No injuries were immediately reported from the park. A county excavator was brought in to help move trees in and around Wind Creek. While county officials and utility workers scrambled to get crews in place and the issues cleared, officers reported that countless residents helped clear trees. Several individuals showed up with chain saws and worked by the light of headlights to get trees out of the roadway. “It has been an unbelievable cooperative effort,” Robinson said. “It’s bad, but you had an awful lot of people out here doing a lot of work to try to get things back to normal.” The National Weather Service did not indicate any tornado sightings, but instead said straightline wind gusts reached upwards of 40 mph.
Top right, a tree fell in the D section of the Wind Creek State Park Campground while the Alexander City Fire Department work to clear trees on Coven Abbett Road between the park entrance and Highway 280.

PLAYING ON THE BIG STAGE Dadeville’s Tolbert to represent Alabama in MLB’s RBI World Series By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
A local high school softball player will be heading to the Lone Star State early next month. Dadeville High School rising senior shortstop and River Region RBI of Alabama team member Kristen Tolbert will head to Dallas Aug. 3-9 for Major League Baseball’s RBI World Series after winning the Southeast Regional Tournament this past weekend in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The MLB RBI (Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities) Program aims to get players in the inner cities and urban areas back into the games of baseball and softball and provides development and exposure, as the World Series will be broadcast nationally on the ESPN family of networks. “This is Kristen’s first year with the River Region Softball team. She pitches and plays shortstop, and hits in the number four slot. She has been very productive for us here,” said Krystle Wilson-Lawson, Tolbert’s pitching coach and head coach of the River Region team. “She’s a great leader, hard working and plays with a tremendous amount of heart. I know that Kristen is one of those athletes that is always trying to get better. We are very fortunate to have her in our program.” During the Southeast Regional Tournament, Tolbert had a .600 batting average, a .750 on-base percentage and nine RBI. The River Region team won its first game 10-3 against Tampa, won its second game 10-4 over Miami, tied its third game 9-9 against Chattanooga before winning the championship 7-6 against Chattanooga. Tolbert said it has been a great experience to improve her game and meet new friends. “It was a good experience and exciting. I’m just learning from my errors and how to keep myself up and keep playing,” Tolbert said. “It’s been good. I’m making new friends.” Wilson-Lawson, a Holtville graduate with spots on the Alabama High School Athletic Association records list as a pitcher, said she has been proud to be a
Outlook Sports Editor
After the retirement of athletic director and girls and boys basketball coach Mike Boyd, Horseshoe Bend School recently named new coaches for both programs.
Kison to coach boys team
Chad Kison will take over as head boys basketball coach at Horseshoe Bend School. Kison, whose coaching experience includes seven years of coaching girls soccer at Benjamin Russell High School, is also an assistant on the HBS football staff. The boys job will be Kison’s first head basketball coaching job, and he hopes to find success with the team that finished winless last season as they move forward in one of Class 2A’s toughest areas. “What we’re looking for is just Kison hard work and a lot of effort. It’s a tough area – we’ve got the defending state champions (LaFayette) in our area,” Kison said. “So, we’re outmatched a little bit, but I think with hard work, determination and good effort we can find some success. The boys have been working – we’ve got almost everyone playing football – and we’ve been practicing some over the summer in the gym.” Kison said players who do not also play on the Generals’ football team will still be doing strength and conditioning training once school resumes and the 2015-2016 season gets closer. “We’re getting better. It will just take a little strategy, a little effort and see what we can do when it comes to the season,” Kison said. “We’re putting everyone in that fifth-block P.E., so the last part of school this fall the guys who are not also playing football will shoot and lift two days.” Kison said that his familiarity with

coach for the team. “This opportunity to coach these amazing young women and represent my state is one of a lifetime,” Wilson-Lawson said. “Hard work, dedication, and persistence from this team took them from Chattanooga, where they won a regional championship, to Dallas where they will be given yet another opportunity to showcase their talents on ESPN.” Tolbert said she is thankful for the
opportunity to be a part of the River Region team. “Just being able to go to the World Series is exciting. I just never knew I’d be able to. I want to thank my pitching coach (Wilson-Lawson) and the RBI team for picking me to be on the team,” Tolbert said. “I want to thank my parents for taking me back and forth. I also want to thank my sponsors that are helping me be able to go compete in this World Series.”

the basketball players will prove a great benefit to the team moving forward. “It’s a great crossover. It’s also a small school, so everybody knows everybody,” Kison said. “We can get a lot more work out of them, it will help with communication and what they need to be doing and that kind of stuff.”
Meigs to coach Lady Generals
After years as an assistant on the HBS girls staff, Erica Meigs will take over as head coach of the Lady Generals. Meigs said she hopes to continue parts of the program that have been successful and bring some new energy and ideas in the process. “I’ve been the assistant coach of the girls team for four years now at Horseshoe Bend,” she said. “I think the Meigs girls are used to the program, so we can kind of continue some of the success of the program and avoid some hiccups and bumps along the way, while I can also bring some new things to the program at the same time.” The Lady Generals have found success on the court in recent seasons, finishing over .500 last year. Meigs said the team has already shown potential during summer camp and she is hoping to see the Lady Generals take the next step. “I went with them to the summer camp this year when we went to Pensacola. They did pretty good down there and showed a lot of potential for this season,” Meigs said. “I hope we can have some success here at Horseshoe Bend. I would like to take things a step further. I’ve told the girls this year that our goal is to win the area this year. I would like for them to reach for that. I’m excited about this and I hope we can do well.”

Georgia (11-1; 7-1) – The Bulldogs have one of the best offensive lines in the SEC. They also have the most talented backfield. Mark Richt coaches up a quarterback and leads the Dawgs to Atlanta for the third time in five years. 2. Tennessee (9-3; 6-2) – QB Joshua Dobbs proved late last year that his skill set is ideal for Butch Jones’ offensive philosophy. However, lack of depth along the lines of scrimmage will hold the Volunteers back. 3. Missouri (9-3; 5-3) – All Gary Pinkel does is achieve more with less every year in Columbia. The Tigers will undoubtedly be a very formidable opponent, but I’m not sold on QB Maty Mauk. Mizzou comes back to earth after two straight division crowns. 4. Kentucky (6-6; 2-6) – I have the Wildcats a little higher than most. While 6-6 isn’t exactly setting the woods on fire, it would be very admirable for this team in this league. 5. Florida (5-7; 2-6) – In time, Jim McElwain will probably field a productive offense. Unfortunately, this is not that time. I expect the Gators to struggle. 6. South Carolina (5-7; 2-6) – To be honest, I don’t have a good read on the Gamecocks this year. They lost some games last season they could have won and won some games they could have lost. Spurrier’s great, but he’s not suiting up. 7. Vanderbilt (3-9; 0-8) – Derek Mason is in over his head and it shows. Western Division 1. Auburn (11-1; 7-1) – Jeremy Johnson is everything he’s expected to be and the Tigers’ offense rolls up huge numbers. The Muschamp effect actually exists and the Auburn defense cracks the top 40 nationally for the first time since 2008. 2. Alabama (10-2; 6-2) – The only reason I don’t have the Tide winning the West is because the Iron Bowl is in Auburn this year. 3. Texas A&M (9-3; 5-3) – John Chavis should have an immediate and positive impact on the Aggie defense just like Muschamp. This team scares me. 4. LSU (8-4; 4-4) – The Tigers suffered from poor QB play last season and I don’t see how anything changes in 2015. LSU has a ton of talent as usual, but I believe they downgraded on coaching in the offseason. 5. Ole Miss (8-4; 4-4) – The defense should be excellent and Laquon Treadwell is one of the best wide receivers in the country. The Rebels just don’t run the ball that well and haven’t since Hugh Freeze took the job. That doesn’t bode well in the SEC. 6. Arkansas (7-5; 3-5) – While the Hogs are getting a lot of preseason love, I think their schedule is too difficult to manage. QB Brandon Allen has also done nothing to convince me he can be a difference maker. 7. Miss State (7-5; 3-5) – Last season was historic for the Bulldogs, but it’s time to get back to reality. QB Dak Prescott is outstanding, but much of last year’s foundation is gone. SEC Championship Game – Auburn 37, Georgia 35 Offensive Player of the Year – Jeremy Johnson (Auburn) Defensive Player of the Year – Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) Coach of the Year – Gus Malzahn Graham is a sports columnist for The Outlook.

The Outlook
Week of Fourth of July had a lot of fireworks, same sex marriage, BP settlement
T
he week leading up to the Fourth of July had a lot of fireworks. In fact, my guess is that when we look back at the year 2015, we will look to that week as the most momentous of the year. It was like bang, bang, bang. The declaration by the Supreme Court that same sex marriage is the law of the land may be one of the most monumental court decisions in decades and unquestionably the landmark ruling by the high tribunal this year. The same week we saw a settlement of the BP case. It was expected and predicted that this verdict would not come down until late 2016 or early 2017. It will be a boon to Alabama’s general fund, but not a panacea. Also, the same week Gov. Robert Bentley took down all the confederate flags around the

He said he wanted to head off controversy about the flags STEVE that might distract from FLOWERS our image and put us in Guest an unfavorable light with Columnist corporations around the Capitol.

Gov. ter.

About $1.3 confederate flag issue billion will go to envicould be a deterrent to ronmental restoration
along Alabama’s coastal area and $1 billion will go to the state for economic damages. Although most of the economic loss came in the area of income and sales taxes that would generally go to the Education Trust Fund, legislators have passed legislation to earmark the money to the general fund. The $1 billion will be paid out over 18 years, which will come to about $55 million per year. It has been five years since the explosion at an off shore well and subsequent oil spill that killed 11 men and devastated the economy of the Gulf Coast. Alabama was one of five states affected by the BP tragedy. A total settlement of $18.7 billion will be paid out to all of the five states. Attorney General Luther Strange did a yeoman’s job on the settlement. He headed the entire legal legwork.
By foregoing outside legal counsel, he saved the state millions. Other states, like Louisiana, spent over $10 million on outside counsel. The presiding judge, U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier, early on made Strange the lead counsel on the case. Attorney General Strange and Gov. Bentley held a joint press conference announcing the historic settlement. Strange said, “I think Alabama has received the very best settlement possible. I think it will benefit future generations of Alabamians.” Gov. Bentley said emphatically and repeatedly that the BP settlement will not solve Alabama’s general fund shortfall. “This will not solve the problem,” Bentley said, “Does it help some? Yes, absolutely.” When asked if the new money might give lawmakers the excuse to avoid rais-
ing taxes or seeking solutions, Bentley said it should not. He emphasized that the BP windfall is not the golden parachute that legislators are hoping for. “There is a $400 million gap in the general fund so $55 million would only be 12 percent of that amount and it may not even start this year,” Bentley said. He continued, “I’m always afraid that anyone can make the excuse to take some one-time money given in one-time fashion and not solve the real problems of our state.” A Special Session was called last week even with the BP windfall. See you next week. Steve Flowers is Alabama’s leading political columnist. His weekly column on Alabama politics appears in over 60 Alabama newspapers. He may be reached at www.steveflowers.us.

JACQUELINE BIGARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S STARS ARIES (March 21-April 19) --You might want to remain mellow, yet everyone else seems to keep popping up with surprises. A friend could become far more challenging and demanding than you had anticipated. Communicate what you want in an assertive but unemotional way. Tonight: Accept an invitation. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) --Keep an even pace right now. You might get news that could cause you to falter, but ultimately it will allow you to head into new territory. Your understanding of a difÂżcult situation involving a close associate suddenly will become much clearer. Tonight: Get enough sleep. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) --Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll feel more playful and dynamic. You might want to try something new and totally different. Open up to different possibilities and remain easygoing. Be willing to renegotiate what you want if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not satisÂżed with someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer. Tonight: Time to have some fun. CANCER (June 21-July 22) --You come from a place of security and understanding. Someone close to you might decide to challenge you. Before you know it, you could be in a power play that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be involved in. Pull back. Tonight: Let someone else worry about dinner plans. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) --You might wake up on the wrong side of the bed, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll regroup quickly. You seem to have a different perspective from that of others. Start asking questions. By the late afternoon, you could feel as if anything is possible. Tonight: Find out what everyone else is doing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --You could say what you want, and you might mean it; however, your ability to bypass a problem will emerge with a more diplomatic response. There is a midpoint where others will be satisÂżed. Understand the importance of Âżnding some com-
mon ground. Tonight: As you wish. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) --Your ability to get past a problem is remarkable to many people, but to you it is second nature. Avoid a controlling individual at all costs. You might be full of energy right now and want to duke it out with this person. Walk away if need be. Tonight: Try something different. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) --You might be more direct and open with someone than you have been. Understand that there is a change afoot. Know that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to say anything. A non-reaction will trigger this person even more, as he or she might be losing control. Tonight: Get a good nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) --Your effectiveness will be highlighted in a meeting. Others might challenge some of the details, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll come out on top regardless. You are likely to have an offer come your way that could be the source of a new friendship. Tonight: Relax to some great music with friends. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) --You might be surprised by what goes on in the next few days. Try not to insist on having things go your way; instead, demonstrate a desire to be more open-minded. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be surprised by how receptive others will become. Tonight: Could be a late night. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) --You might wonder what is going on with a child or loved one. Detach some, and you probably will be able to gain a better understanding of the dynamics involved with this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. As a result, you will be able to relate on a deeper level. Tonight: Where the action is. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) --0Relate to others on an individual level. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll gain a lot of vital information that could affect various areas of your life. Be more open, and you will get a positive response. Your intuition serves you well at the moment; listen to it. Tonight: Have a discussion over dinner. yourself by signing up for a yoga class or participating in a differ-

Wishing Casey Davis well on his new position at central office Happy birthday wishes to an elite lady, Wynema Hand, whose birthday was July 5. She is a lovely lady whom everyone loves dearly. Nancy Simpson needs everyone’s prayers as she is patiently awaiting the results of her tests from the doctors. Her loving husband, Tommy Simpson, appreciates everyone’s prayers. Nancy and Tommy Simpson pray that God can answer their needs soon, if it be the Lord’s will. Brother Tom Drake, pastor of New Salem Baptist Church, is doing great work for the Lord. He is a fascinating pas-
tor as Brother Harold Cummings of Rocky Creek Baptist Church is. God bless both of these Christian pastors who love God and their church families. Melba Boyd has been enjoying her sister, Elizabeth, of Oceanside, Mississippi, last week. Aren’t we having strange weather? But the Lord knows best for everyone. Good luck to Casey Davis in his new job. Horseshoe Bend School will miss a kind young man who led HBS for 12 years. We’ll miss his leadership, but soon we’ll have a new principal. Good luck, Casey Davis!

He was delighted and grateful, as he loves anything sweet. Last Friday, I thought Pat Garnett would be a bit stir-crazy after therapy trips and staying in an arm sling, so I collected her and we ventured a short ways down Highway 9 to visit our friend and Pat’s sisterin-law, Neta Stephens. Plenty of fans enabled us to sit on the front porch for a catch-up visit and great start to the weekend. Ron and I have obeyed the extreme heat warnings and only work outside when necessary.
