This Christmas display in Valley shows three wisemen and their camels nearly floating in flooded area.
Most rainfall in decade causes massive flooding
By Alton Mitchell
Winter rolled into
LaFayette last week, however over the first week of
winter conditions have
seemed more like early
spring. Weather conditions
have been dominated by
above average temperatures and storms that
seemed more spring like
than winter like. The
storms that have ravaged
much of the nation did not
spare LaFayette and
Chambers County from its
torrential downpours and
flooding.
Christmas day and the
weekend offered some relief from storms that dominated much of the week
last week. However by
Monday the rain had returned to the area. Rainfall
totals from last week totaled nearly 10” in some
areas of Chambers County.
The deluge of rain caused
severe flooding throughout
the County.
Despite the moderate
relief of the weekend. It
was not enough to allow
the abundant amount of
rainfall to completely go
away before the next
round of rain arrives which
is predicted to last until the
middle part of this week.
New rainfall is falling
on already saturated
ground and has once again
cause a flood threat to become present. The rainfall
has caused creeks to swell
in the county and the Chattahoochee River to rise
well above flood stage.
Standing water has been
seen on roadways and
Bridge washout
making its way into a few
homes
in
structures
throughout the region.
The rising waters have
kept emergency management officials throughout
the County busy over the
past week. Their duties
have included protecting
motorist from hazard conditions including roadways.
Flood
waters
became so severe in the
County that some bridges
have washed away over
swollen waterways.
The flooding that is
occurring is the worst to
hit the area in nearly
twelve years. This week’s
rain will only add to the
double digit totals that
have saturated the region.
Forecasters warn of many
threats associated with the
unusually high rainfall totals they include flooded
waterways, and the ability
for trees to easily fall over
due to the extremely moist
ground exposing root
structures. Motorist should
not drive in areas of standing water as depth is not
always easy to calculate
based upon the observations of the naked eye.
The rain is expected to
taper off by the end of the
week and along with its
departure will also come
the departure of the above
average temperatures that
have dominated December. More seasonable temperatures are expected to
return with highs in the
50’s and lows in the 30’s
with drier conditions dominating next weeks forecast.

3 shot
at bar
By Alton Mitchell
Early Saturday morning gunfire erupted shattering the calm night
atmosphere outside of the
Rhythm and Blues Bar on
U.S.Highway 29 near Beulah. The bar is located in
Lee County just across from
the Chambers County line.
The gunfire would leave
three people wounded including a Lanett man.
Around 3 a.m. on Saturday morning gunfire
erupted in the parking lot
outside of the popular rural
nightspot. Officers from the
Lee County Sheriff’s office
received numerous 911
calls about the gunfire.
When deputies arrived on
the scene they discovered a
man in the parking lot suffering from a gunshot
wound to the abdomen.
That victim was identified
as Vincent Henry, 25-years
old of Lanett. Emergency
crews transported Henry to
East Alabama Medical Center in Opelika for treatment
for non-life threatening
wounds.

Shootings
in
LaFayette prove to be rarity, but another shooting
earlier in the year near
LaFayette High school left
one man with two bullet
wounds and two twin
brothers facing charges.
As the calendar turns
to 2016 a chapter in the
history of LaFayette has
closed. With a few blemishes on its pages the year
was not without flaw, but
the scales tilt more so in
the direction of a positive
and productive year in
LaFayette. As the new
year rolls in the stamp left
in place by 2015 is one
that has created a lasting
impression in the city.

scene by private vehicle to

victims were believed to

wounds were classified as

Deputies with the Lee
County Sheriff’s Department continue to investigate
the shooting, but have not
yet made any arrests in the
case. All the victims in the
Saturday morning shooting
are expected to survive their
injuries. Anyone with any

A combination of unseasonably warm weather,
the absence of the jet
stream and abundant moisture from the gulf spilling
across
the
southeast,
spelled disaster for many
this holiday season.
Weather records across
the nation were broken for
heat, tornados, and even
snow.
In the southeast alone,
at least 48 storm related
deaths had been recorded
with more expected.
Mississippi officials
are still searching for two
missing people, along with
10 already confirmed
deaths, 56 major injuries,
and 241 homes destroyed.
Alabama reported two
storm related deaths. Flash
floods were common state
wide with many roads
flooded or washed out completely. A confirmed tornado hit northeast of
Birmingham causing wide
spread property damage
with only minor injuries.
Four inches of rain
walloped the city of Mobile
on Wednesday, breaking the
old record of 2.2 inches in a
24 hour period.
Gov. Robert Bentley
on
Saturday
visited
weather-damaged areas in
Coffee County. A statement
from the governor's office
said that more than 190
roads across Alabama were
closed due to flooding Saturday.
Six people were killed
in Tennessee, including
three who were found in a
car submerged in a creek.
One person died in
Arkansas, and dozens of
homes were damaged or
destroyed.
This death toll for the
southeast does not include
other areas, such as Illinois
which had five drownings.
While the south basked
in the upper 70’s last week,
Texas had what officials
call “a historic blizzard”
with areas from the Pan-
handle to El Paso recording
12 to 14 inches of snow.
Saturday night, a massive tornado hit Dallas and
the suburb of Garland,
killing a dozen with more
expected as the clean up
continues.
Peak tornado season
in the South is in the spring,
but such storms can happen
at any time. Exactly a year
ago, tornadoes hit Mississippi, killing five people
and injuring dozens.
EMA officials encourage every one to have a programmable weather alert
radio in their home. There
is plenty of time to acquire
one before the spring storm
season arrives.

The
calendar
is
rolling once again pushing
2015 out and ushering
2016 in. There will be no
repeat of the year 2015 unless it is mentioned in the
history books and the history books will show that
2015 proved to be a year
when LaFayette saw massive change and positive
movements. Many events
occurred in the great city
of LaFayette in 2015 that
will have a lasting impression on the community for
generations to come.
One of the biggest accomplishments of the year
comes in the form of
LaFayette receiving national recognition for its
efforts to be a more
healthy community. The
actions spearheaded by
councilwoman Tammie
Williams brought the national
spotlight
on
LaFayette as the city become a poster child in the

forth have made the city a
much healthier place both
in the physical and the

The athletic ability of

Bulldogs were able to secure a Class 2A State
Championship. The skill

Inside The Statehouse
By Steve Flowers
As we close the final
page on the 2015 book, my
yearend tradition is to reminisce about the passing
away of significant players
on the Alabama political
stage.
The first obituary is
not a person but an entity.
The Alabama Education
Association is essentially
dead as a political organization. The king is dead.
When Paul Hubbert died
the AEA died. It is as
though it rose and fell with
his life. He reigned as King
of Goat Hill for over 30
years.
In 1969, the AEA was
nothing more than a professional organization run
by the school superintendents. It had no political
muscle or organization.
There were no political action committees at that
time. Then the AEA sought
and got Dr. Paul Hubbert.
He quickly grasped the understanding of political
power. In his first year he
defeated Governor George
Wallace and quickly earned
his spurs. By the mid
1970’s he had built the
AEA into a powerful political machine and by 1982
he and Wallace joined
forces and AEA and Hubbert became the Kings of
Goat Hill.
Paul Hubbert reigned
from 1982-2012. He died
in 2014. Today the AEA is
back where it was in 1969.
It is once again a toothless
professional organization.
The new Republican legislative majority that came
to power in 2010 made it
their mission to dismantle
and destroy the once omnipotent AEA. The GOP
legislature, along with our
extremely partisan GOP
Supreme Court, took away
their dues check off, then
AUCTION
140±-ACRE LAKEFRONT FARM
ST. CLAIR COUNTY, ALABAMA
continued to shovel dirt
onto the grave.
Over the past few
years, they have cut teachers’ pay and this past year
raided the Special Education Trust Fund to keep the
General Fund afloat. They
will probably raid it again
next year because there is
nobody to guard the hen
house.
The AEA was the last
democratic based political
organization to help elect
Democrats. Therefore, with
the death of the AEA there
is a conjunctive death of
the Democratic Party
statewide in Alabama. The
leadership of the Democratic Party, which is essentially Joe Reed and his
allies, are content to control a fiefdom that is comprised of local political
Democratic bastions of
urban and Black Belt enclaves. They do not even
field credible or serious
candidates for statewide office.
Sid McDonald was not
only a player in Alabama
politics, he was also an
ultra-successful businessman. McDonald hailed
from beautiful Marshall
County. He represented his
home area in both the
House and Senate. He was
State Finance Director and
ran a good race for governor in 1978. He and Fob
James both financed their
own campaigns. Fob won
the race. Bill Baxley finished
second. Albert
Brewer was third and Sid
McDonald ran fourth
ahead of Lt. Gov. Jere
Beasley.
McDonald was one of
Alabama’s
outstanding
businessmen. He was inducted into the Alabama
Business Hall of Fame in
2010. Sid McDonald
served for 16 years on the
Board of Trustees of this
alma mater the University
of Alabama. The University of Alabama system administrative
building
located on the university
campus on University
Boulevard in Tuscaloosa
was named for Sid McDonald in 2014. On May
15, 2015, McDonald died
on a business trip in Colorado. He was 76.
State Representative
Lesley Vance of Phenix
City died in November at
age 76 from colon cancer.
He had wrestled with the
cancer for over a year. He
was a great man and a good
friend. Lesley was a true
Horatio Alger story. He
was one of 15 children who
grew up poor in rural Alabama. He became financially successful as a
funeral home director and
owner. He had the largest
funeral home in Phenix
City and Columbus, Georgia. He as a civic leader in
Russell County before he
went to the legislature. He
served in the State House
of Representatives for over
20 years.
Although he was a
Tennessean, Fred Thompson was born in northwest
Alabama. Fred Thompson
was a U.S. Senator from
Tennessee for 12 years.
Prior to running for the
U.S. Senate, he was a television and movie star. Best
known for his role in Law
and Order, he first became
famous as a Watergate
prosecutor in the 1970’s.
Thompson died of lymphoma at age 73 at his
home in Nashville.
See you next week.
Steve Flowers is Alabama’s leading political
columnist. His weekly column
appears in over 60 Alabama
newspapers. He served 16
years in the state legislature.

Mikes’s Musings
Now you can pick up The Sun for FREE
By Mike Wilcox, Publisher
Change is in the wind.
I’ve learned some of
us down South are slow to
take to change. We are set
in our ways and would like
life to be slower and more
purposeful like it was 20
years ago. Unfortunately,
that simply can’t be.
We’ve learned that
lesson the hard way in the
newspaper
business.
Newspaper upon newspaper have closed their doors
over the past ten years because they have failed to
adjust to the changing
business climate. They
wanted to continue to operate like they always had-
selling subscriptions to
subscribers that were getting older and dying and
writing news stories about
things that really didn’t appeal to younger readers.
We hope to be able to
buck that trend here. Starting with our January 6th
edition, you will see The
Sun available for pick-up
in a lot more stores. More
importantly, you will not
have to pay 50 cents, or a
quarter, or even a penny
for the newspaper. It will
now be FREE to those who
choose to pick it up at a
store.
Yes, you heard me
right. It will be FREE.
Consider it our New Year’s
gift to readers in the areaa newspaper filled with
local news and columnists,
that can be picked up for
FREE.
Why would we do
this? It’s quite simple. A
newspaper essentially derives its income from advertising. Businesses who
advertise want the vehicle
they choose to do their advertising with in as many
hands as possible. We felt
as a paid subscription
newspaper, we were limiting the number of readers
we were providing adver-
tisers.
We had test marketed
the free product in Lanett,
Valley and Opelika over
the last few months and
noticed very few returns,
meaning since the newspaper was free, we couldn’t
refill the newsstands fast
enough, before they were
taken by eager readers.
As of January 6th,
they will be free at most
newsstands and stores in
LaFayette,
Chambers
County and Opelika. We
are increasing the number
of newspapers we print
and distribute by nearly 50
percent. We will continue
mailed delivery to those
people who want to receive the newspaper at
their home. As you know,
our subscriptions are less
than any other weekly
newspaper in the area- $23
for in Chambers County
and $30 a year outside the
county.
You have another option to receive the newspaper as well, and it is totally
FREE. We publish an eedition of the newspaper,
which means you can get
all the news and advertising via email. It will come
directly to your email address the day the newspa-
per is published. Again,
this option is totally free.
Chambers County and
the City of LaFayette has
weathered some hard
times. So has this newspaper. But despite that, we all
continue to push ahead, realizing that through faith,
hard work and perserverance, times will get better.
The Sun is trying to do its
part by providing a great
news product at an affordable price- FREE. As always we welcome your
thoughts or comments.
Feel free to call me at 334864-8885
or

up,” he stated. “Some
workers have to wear
masks as they work in
these places, because the
food is so rotten and
filthy. Many of their fish
on Fish Farms are fed raw
sewage daily.”
He said he has seen so
much filth throughout
their food growing and
processing that he would
"never" eat any of it.
Food coloring and
some flavorings are often
used to mask the appearance and smell, then they
ship it to the USA &
Canada for US to consume and feed to OUR
families. They have no
Food & Safety Inspectors.
Here are some of the
products and name brands
this inspector cited…..
Green Giant frozen
vegetables from China,
and most of Europe 's Best
brand.
China is the largest
producer of garlic in the
world; the U. S. is next.
“Never buy the noname grocery store garlic
unless it is clearly marked
from USA or Canada.
The other stuff is
grown in people poop”
(even worse than chicken
poop).
Buy only local honey.
Much of the world’s supply of honey is shipped in
huge containers from
China and re-packaged
here.
“Never buy any type
of fish or shellfish that
comes from Vietnam,
China, or the Philippines.
Steinfeld's Pickles are
made in India and are just
as bad!”
Another example is
the generic brand of
mushrooms that come
from Indonesia.
Also
check those little fruit
cups. They used to be
made in Canada until
about 2 years ago. They
are now made and pack-
aged in China.
On a positive note,
this inspector cited Arctic
Gardens and Birdseye
brands as okay.
No doubt this is a
subject we may have to
visit again, as things
change. But now, for you
and your family’s sake,
read the labels and avoid
the yucky stuff. There is
no excuse now that you
know.
Good things are bound to happen
By Jody Fuller
Whew! That was
quick. Much like Coach
Will Muschamp’s tenure
on the sidelines at Auburn
University, my trip to
Kuwait has come and
gone. It was a good trip,
but as always, I’m glad to
be back home.
I can’t sleep on commercial aircraft but can
sleep like a baby on a military plane. The trip over
was uneventful until the
final two hour stretch from
Abu Dhabi to Kuwait City.
I sat next to a crying child.
He had a shrill scream that
was surely making dogs
howl 38,000 feet below us,
not to mention making a
grown man bite his bottom
lip just one seat over. Perhaps he needed to be on a
military plane.
When I arrived in
Kuwait, there was a lady
holding a little sign with
my name on it. I’m not
used to that type of treatment. I thought handcuffs
might soon be following.
Sure I had bad thoughts
about the screaming child,
but I was able to grin and
bear my way through it or
so I thought.
She was actually there
to make the transition into
the country easier. After all
kinds of issues and time
with my passport, I just
whipped out my military
ID and waltzed right on
through immigration.
A driver from the
company took me to my
hotel room where I would
remain for the next 24
hours. I was so tired that I
never left my room. I
didn’t eat anything for 28
hours. I don’t think I’ve
gone 28 hours without eating since the 28 hours before I ever ate. That’s just
insane. I got out of bed a
couple of times when nature called. Other than that,
I was bound to the bed.
One of my old bosses
from the army came to
pick me up and we went to
the Christmas party where
I was to perform. The hotel
was huge and the ballroom
looked like the Luxor in
Vegas, pyramid and all, but
there weren’t a lot people.
I was worried and rightfully so.
A comedian can usually tell beforehand if it’s
going to work or not. For
example, when the boss is
giving his welcome speech
and there are kids running
around at his feet and very
few people are paying attention, while others are
bee boppin’ around like
nothing’s happening. I
knew it was going to be
rough, and I was right. It
happens.
There were a couple
of tables up front who
were paying attention and
laughing, so I made sure I
sat down with them and
thanked them afterwards.
They were good folks,
even though one of them
was a Bama fan. They are
everywhere I tell ya!
My driver picked me
up at the hotel the next
morning at 4:30. I knew it
was going to be a long day,
and, once again, I was
right. The trip to Jordan
went off without a hitch,
but once I got there, the
fun began. We were delayed by several hours. I
was tired and miserable
and knew I wouldn’t be
able to sleep on the plane,
but a funny thing happened.
The plane was not
full, and I was fortunate to
have a window seat with
an empty seat next to me.
There was a guy in the
aisle seat, however. My
feet were hurting so I
pulled my shoes off and
crossed my legs. Apparently, there was a putrid
odor emitting from my
feet, so the guy next to me
got up and changed seats. I
had two free seats next to
me, so I took some sleep
aid, stretched out like I was
in a free seat on a school
bus, and slept like a champ
for several hours.
Due to the delay in
Jordan, I missed my con-
necting
flight
from
Chicago to Atlanta. I wasn’t mad or anything. It
happens. I was kind and respectful, and they were
able to find me a seat on a
later flight and eventually
gave me a free upgrade to
first class. First class on an
American Eagle is like the
honeymoon suite at the
“No Tell Motel,” but it was
still a kind and appreciated
gesture.
Life’s not always perfect, but hang in there. Be
nice. Be courteous. Be Patient. Good things are
bound to happen.

LaFayette High boys basketball
Holt hands LHS 67-49 loss
brought LaFayette’s record
to 7-4 on the season.
Tied at halftime at 25,
the Ironmen went on multiple scoring runs to distance
themselves from the bigger
Bulldogs. 6-3 senior forward Kemonta Stockdale
kept the Ironmen in the
game by dominating on the
boards -both offensive and
defensive- with a game
high 20 rebounds.
The fourth quarter was
all Holt as the Ironmen
treated Stillman College’s
court like it was their own,
diving for loose balls and
fighting for every rebound
like this was the state championship game. In a way it
was for the previously 3-7
team out of Holt.
JaTarvious Whitlow

points, teammate and senior
forward Quentin Ray
Donnell Suggs
Sports Editor
High School’s basketball program has earned the
right to be a bit cocky, they
are after all the defending
Class 2A State Champs.
That didn’t matter much as
the Bulldogs traveled to
Tuscaloosa to play in the
NUCOR Steel Tournament
at Stillman College.
Their opening opponent had only won three of
their first 10 games and
would be looking to not get
embarrassed by the more
established
LaFayette
squad. And that ladies and
gentlemen is why we play
the games on court and not
on paper. The Holt High
School Ironmen defeated
the Bulldogs 67-49 on Saturday afternoon.. The loss
scored 12. The Ironmen
were led in scoring by
Stockdale with 25 points,
fellow senior Javonta
Brooks added 17 points.
The Bulldogs were
scheduled to play the
Robert C. Hatch High
School (Uniontown) Bob-
cats on Monday afternoon.
The details of the game will
be too late for The
LaFayette Sun deadline and
will be posted online. They

What’s On My
Mind
New Year's ResolutionsSports Edition
By Donnell Suggs
So what am I going to do
new next year that I haven’t
done this year? What’s my
New Year’s resolution? I
don’t have any particular personal resolution in mind, what
I do have is a list of sports-related resolutions that I plan to
getting started on Friday at
midnight. I’m not trying to
say that there isn’t anything
about me that doesn’t need
work (It’s a good thing my exwife doesn’t have a newspaper column), I just like writing
about sports and I think it
would be better for both of us
if I kept these columns about
sports. Trust me.
In 2016 I, Donnell
Suggs, Sports Editor and
columnist at The LaFayette
Sun, will:
Stop throwing things at
my television -especially in
the living room, that’s a 50incher- when watching my
beloved Mets, Jets and
Brooklyn Nets.
Neglect to think less of
folks that ask me “So, did you
see the game last night?”
when they know I’m a sports
writer and it’s all I do every
night. And by the way what
exactly is “the game” anyway? If they’re referring to
football than there was 13
“games” on Sunday. I’m
going to definitely be working
on this one for the entire year.
Cut back on using sports
as a way to explain life to my
sons. Notice how I said I
would cut back on it instead
of saying I would stop cold
turkey. I grew up with three
brothers and my father
crowded around the living
room television set (in the
80’s they were big and bulky
enough to legitimately call
them “sets) watching the
NBA and NFL. There was no
such thing as sports talk, that
was considered conversation
in my house. My poor mother.
I usually describe life
lessons to my boys this way
too. “You have to take life like
a 3-2 fastball, just swing with
all of your might and run like
hell.” Maybe I can teach my
sons to be men without always having to inject sports
into it. I’m going to definitely
break this resolution before
Easter.
Invite my wife to a sporting event. I cdover football,
basketball, baseball, wrestling
and softball all year long and
I have to admit I like to go to
games by myself so to not
have any distractions. Maybe
I can invite my wife of three
years to a Hawks game or
maybe even a Braves game
before they leave town and
head up to Cobb County. That
my friends is another column
for another day. I think my
wife would like it, I think she
would appreciate the sentiment. I think not. She hates
sports and despite growing up
in football-mad Georgia doesn’t understand the game or
any other game for that matter. We’ll see about actually
implementing this resolution.
Not take sports so seriously. As a matter of fact let’s
just take this one off the books
right now. There’s no way this
resolution even sees the light
of day..
New Year’s Eve is upon
us and we all are going to
make promises to ourselves
that we (know) we won’t
keep. I’m going to try my best
to keep a few of these but
don’t hold your breath. Heck,
I might even try to stop using
cliches like “don’t hold your
breath” in columns for 2016.
Good luck with that one,
Donnell.
Lizzie Keebler attempts a pass during the Lady
Rebels loss to Lady Chiefs Pictures by Jody Stewart
The Rebels went ahead
early, 13-10 after the first
quarter and 25-18 at the
half, before being held
scoreless during the fourth
quarter.
The
Chiefs
outscored their guest 8-0
Now Doing FOAM INSULATION!
All Major
Credit Cards
Accepted
during the period. This
would be the only time all
season the Rebels would
end a quarter of play without any points.
The Chiefs took advantage of the Rebels offensive
deficiency and outscored
the Rebels 13-8 during the
fourth quarter.
Girls
The Lady Rebels fell
behind early and could not
make up the deficit
throughout the game. The
Lady Chiefs went ahead 132 after the first quarter and
never trailed or tied for the
entirety of the contest.
The Lady Rebels were
also outscored 8-2 during
the third and fourth quarters
of the game.
We’re not just filled with hot air
when we say,
We hope your year’s a soaring
success all the way!

Lady Panthers celebrate their tournament victory

Lady Panthers win Georgia tournament
The Lanett Lady Panthers tend to get outshined
by their male brethren but
their recent efforts at an
out-of-state tournament will
get them a little well earned
publicity for sure. The Lady
Panthers return home to Alabama following their success at the Shaw Holiday
Tournament in Columbus,
Georgia.
Lanett won three
games in three days to win
the B bracket of the tournament. Their opening game
against Central (Talbotton,
Ga.) ended in an impressive
60-29 win. The following
day they beat Douglass
High School (Atlanta) by
four, 36-32 to make it to the
championship game.
On Wednesday, December 23 the Lady Panthers played local team
Spencer High School
(Columbus, Ga.) for the B
bracket championship and
subsequently dominated the
matchup defeating the
Green Waves 45-19.
The Lady Panthers got
off to a strong start, leading
11-1 after the first quarter.
They were up by 11 points,
19-8 at halftime before an
18-5 run during the third
quarter finally separated the
two teams for good.
Junior Lady panther
Ataiya Bridges led all scorers with 19 points (on 6-19
shooting) and eight rebounds. Bridges is averaging 19 points, three
rebounds and 2.7 steals per
game this season. Fellow
senior Alycea Sharpe added
six points, five rebounds
and a game high four
blocks. Freshman guard
Makyia Broughton scores
six points and grabbed four
rebounds.
The Lady Panthers are
set to play in the Ball’n
Powher Prep Invitational in
Montgomery on Monday,
December 28 through
Wednesday December 30.
The LaFayette Sun
goes to press on Tuesday
mornings and will do our
best to get the scores in the

The Auburn Fire Department was dispatched
on Thursday to north
Auburn to rescue five individuals from Saugahatchee
Creek after their boat became displaced.
According to Josh
Datnoff, the Battalion
Chief for the Auburn Fire
Department, units were
dispatched around 2:15
p.m. in reference to the distress call.
Fire Department units
responded to the 1900
block of North Ashe Court
where they encountered
five individuals stranded in
the creek.
At first, the emergency
responders had to make
contact with the individuals
by yelling due to the fact
that they could not see the
individuals. Of the five
stranded individuals, two
people were adults and
three people were juveniles.

Donnell Suggs
Sports Editor
Lanett Panther head
coach Richard Carter, his
coaching staff and his players deserve a bit of a break
for the holidays. The Panthers have been traveling all
over Alabama and neighboring Georgia playing the
best that both states have to
offer in regards to basketball talent. And by the looks
of the panthers overall
record, 2015 is going to end
on a high note.

(Columbus, Ga.) two days
before Christmas 57-52 to
win their fifth home game
of the season (5-0) to bring
their overall record to 11-4.
“I thought we played
better as a team,” said Panther head coach Richard
Carter. “Our goal now is to
build some consistency
through the rest of the season.”
The Panthers have
spent the first three months
of the season playing
games in Birmingham, Atlanta, Columbus, Georgia,
Mableton, Georgia and In
Dadeville with those before-mentioned five home
games sandwiched in between.
Like the old Johnny
Cash song says, the Lanett
Panthers “have been everywhere man.” They start off
the 2016 half of the season
on the road at Newnan
High School on Saturday,
January 2. The Cougars are
on a four-game win streak
and will be a tough out especially at the Cougar Den.

First responders used a
flat bottom boat to rescue
the male adult male first.
He was pulled from the
water 30 minutes after the
call was made.
The remaining four individuals were not accessible from the first location
due to the water current, so
rescue units had to move
the boat upstream to rescue
the remaining four individuals. The remaining adult
and three juveniles were
pulled from the water two
hours after the call came in.
According to Datnoff,
two fire fighters were displaced from their boat during the operation and
entered the water during
the rescue operation.
Datnoff also said that
the East Alabama Fire District Water Rescue team,
from Chambers County, assisted in the operation.
No injuries were reported during the rescue.

Appreciation of Services
By Bill Frazer
On the Gatlin Brothers Christmas tape, Larry
says it is his wish that
Christmas be in the world
every day of the year. It
seems we do not really appreciate services of others
until the Christmas season.
It got me to thinking
about the gifts that we receive every day without
being thankful. People get
out of bed in the early
morning to go out to provide services to all of us.
Some work all night such
as our law enforcement
officers to protect us. We
tend to accept all services
as if we deserve it.
I watch as small businesses struggle to exist,
much less return a profit.
No one understands the
trials and tribulations of a
small business unless they
have experienced it themselves. Even the newspaper that prints this column
struggles to retain circulation in a world of internet,
iphones and high quality
television reception.
The cost of a year’s
subscription
to
the
LaFayette Sun costs $23
for a year local delivery.
The cost of the mail service to get the paper into
your home is more than
the subscription. In other
words, the publisher can
not stay in business on
subscriptions. The businesses that advertise in the
publication are what finances the paper.
Occasionally, I opt for
breakfast in a local cafe or
a fast food server. As I sat
there last week enjoying
my grits, eggs, bacon and
toast, I thought, “how do
they make a profit”? In
addition to meal preparation, there are Food Inspectors who post their
sanitary scores. Then
there are the following necessities: paying rent or
payment on the facility,
having to collect and
remit sales tax, ad valorem tax on the property,
cleaning up the food serving area, cleaning up pots
and pans, and paying the
cost of the food, napkins,
silverware, labor and accounting services. We see
the service people, but the

real hero in my book is the
unheralded cook behind
the scenes who is the
backbone of food service.
In my opinion, business, whether small or
large, is the backbone of
the nation. If you get up
early and have to run to
the store for an item, the
road is crowded with people going to work at 6
AM. Operating a small
business is not a 9 to 5 operation. The small operator, if his business plan
fails to work, loses everything as he cannot sustain
operations if the business
is not profitable. This cre-

ates a lot of stress for the
business owner as he can
not simply close the door
at 5 PM and go home and
relax; the success of the
business rests on his
shoulders.
The good news is that
KIA, auto parts manufacturers and Point University have moved into our
area affecting the entire
community across the
state lines. A lot of people
contend that they do not
see any change. However
if you venture out on GA
103 around 7 AM you will
see traffic bumper to
bumper. These are the
people who are productive
and a necessity to keep
America a world leader.
Nobody seems to pay
any attention to it, but the
unemployment stats in our
area are the lowest that I
can remember. There are
countless ads posted from
employment
agencies
seeking qualified workers.
It seems that is politically
incorrect to use the word
LABOR. However, work
and labor are the same.
The common phrase “I have
to go to work!” is an honor
and a tribute - not a negative.
The worker picking up the
trash is just as important to our
nation as skilled machinist in
the automobile assembly
plant.
For my new years resolution, I want to pay respect to
all who supply the goods and
services that make America
great.

Just So You’ll Know
By Paul Richardson
WOW! Talk about
bad luck, 31 year old
Casey Wagner was struck
by lightning not once but
twice the same day recently at a mud race near
Gainesville, Texas. There
was a nurse nearby to render assistance who is credited with saving the man’s
life.
But that is nothing
compared to this next gentleman who may be luckiest unlucky man on earth.
All things considered, I would not want to
be in his shoes….ever!
He is Park Ranger
Roy C. Sullivan (or was)
from Virginia and he holds
a record no one else wants,
being struck by lightning
more times than anyone
else, and living to tell
about it.
Between 1942 and
1983, Roy has the dubious
distinction of being struck
by lightning seven times.
He was known as the
Human Lightning Rod.
The first lightning
strike in 1942 happened as
he was working in a lookout tower and the lightning
bolt shot through his leg
and out his toes and
knocked his big toenail
off. Although it was
painful, it was more embarrassing than anything
else.
In 1969 while he
was driving along a mountain road a second strike
burned off his eyebrows
and knocked him unconscious. At this point it
wasn’t funny anymore.
Another strike just a
year later, while he was
walking across his yard to
get the mail, lightning bolt
number three left his
shoulder charred with
third degree burns.
Lightning bolt number four found Roy as he
was standing in the office
at the ranger station in
1972 when it set his hair
on fire and a co-worker
had to throw a bucket of
water over his head.
A year later, after his
hair had grown back, a
lightning bolt number five
ripped through his hat and
hit him on the head, setting his hair on fire again.
It threw him out of his
truck, knocked his left
shoe off and seared his
legs.
Strike number six
hit him in 1976 while he
was in the woods checking
on a campsite, injuring his
ankle.
The last lightning
bolt to hit Roy in 1977
happened while he was
fishing. It sent him to hos-
pital with chest and stomach burns. (It appears each
strike was more severe
than the previous one.)
Roy Sullivan was
never killed by lighting, he
committed suicide at age
72 in 1983 reportedly distraught over the loss of a
woman. (Maybe he was
too hot to handle…?)
On a serious side, the
National Weather service
claims that a bolt of lightning strikes somewhere on
earth every second of
every minute of every
hour of every day. Many
people have been struck
when there was not a
cloud in the sky.
One individual in
Colorado was hit on a
clear, blue, sunny day and
the weather service said
the nearest thunderstorm
was 13 miles away on the
other side of the Rocky
Mountains.
My dear granny
Richardson was more
afraid of lightning than the
devil. If it ever thundered
or turned dark, she made
all the young ‘uns go get
on the bed. (And we didn’t
get down until she said
so.)

Making your New Year’s resolution stick
Lose weight? Check.
Start exercising? Check.
Stop smoking? Check.
It can be daunting
when your list of New
Year’s Resolutions is as
long as your holiday shopping list. In addition to the
post-holiday slump, not
being able to keep your resolutions by February,
March or even late January
may increase your anxiety.
When your holiday decorations are packed up and
stored away, the frustration
of an unused gym membership or other reminders of
failed resolutions can make
the later winter months feel
hopeless.
However, it is important to remember that the
New Year isn’t meant to
serve as a catalyst for
sweeping
character
changes. It is a time for
people to reflect on their
past year’s behavior and
promise to make positive
lifestyle changes. “Setting
small, attainable goals
throughout the year, instead
of a singular, overwhelming goal on January 1 can
help you reach whatever it
is you strive for,” says psychologist Lynn Bufka, PhD.
“Remember, it is not the
extent of the change that
matters, but rather the act of
recognizing that lifestyle
change is important and
working toward it, one step
at a time.”
By making your resolutions realistic, there is a
greater chance that you will
keep them throughout the
year, incorporating healthy
behavior into your everyday life. APA offers these
tips when thinking about a
News Year’s resolution:
Start small
Make resolutions that
you think you can keep. If,
for example, your aim is to
exercise more frequently,
schedule three or four days
a week at the gym instead
of seven. If you would like
to eat healthier, try replacing dessert with something
else you enjoy, like fruit or
yogurt, instead of seeing
your diet as a form of punishment.
Change one behavior
at a time
Unhealthy behaviors
develop over the course of
time. Thus, replacing unhealthy behaviors with
healthy ones requires time.
Don’t get overwhelmed and
think that you have to reassess everything in your
life. Instead, work toward
changing one thing at a
time.
Talk about it
Share your experiences
with family and friends.
Consider joining a support
group to reach your goals,
such as a workout class at
your gym or a group of
coworkers quitting smoking. Having someone to
share your struggles and
successes with makes your
journey to a healthier
lifestyle that much easier
and less intimidating.
Don’t beat yourself
up
Perfection is unattainable. Remember that minor
missteps when reaching
your goals are completely
normal and OK. Don’t give
up completely because you
ate a brownie and broke
your diet, or skipped the
gym for a week because
you were busy. Everyone
has ups and downs; resolve
to recover from your mistakes and get back on track.
Ask for support
Accepting help from
those who care about you
and will listen strengthens
your resilience and ability
to manage stress caused by
your resolution. If you feel
overwhelmed or unable to
meet your goals on your
own, consider seeking professional help. Psychologists are uniquely trained to
understand the connection
between the mind and
body. They can offer strategies as to how to adjust
your goals so that they are
attainable, as well as help
you change unhealthy behaviors and address emotional issues.
Thanks to our treasured friends
and customers for making our
year a soaring success. We
greatly appreciate your kindness
and support.

Trump Will Make a
Run, but Clinton Will
Prevail
Donald Trump will
make a strong run for the
Republican nomination for
president, but eventually he
will fall short as the Republican establishment rallies
around one candidate, with
Marco Rubio being the
most likely, predicts Dr.
Richard Fording, professor
and chair of the political
science department at The
University of Alabama.
However, none of this will
matter, because Hillary
Clinton will be easily
elected in November as our
next president and our first
woman in the Oval Office.
Package Delivery by
Drones Closer to Reality
Being pushed commercially by such companies as Amazon, Google
and Wal-Mart, delivery by
small, unmanned air vehicles, known as drones, will
become closer to reality in
2016 as regulations are formalized and testing moves
to restricted outdoor areas,
predicts Dr. Paul Hubner,
University of Alabama associate professor of aerospace engineering and
mechanics. “Santa’s job security for next year is OK,
but, in 2017, he will have
some competition in delivering small presents in limited areas,” Hubner says.

Hints of Sparkle
Await the Daring in 2016
For 2016, expect to see
softer colors and warm,
cozy textures, predicts
Stephanie Sickler, assistant
professor in the department
of clothing, textiles and interior design in The University of Alabama’s College
of Human Environmental
Sciences. A hint of sparkle
and sophisticated glamor is
waiting around the corner
for those daring enough to
try pairing it with sleek,
smooth, surfaces and light,
fluffy fabrics. Have fun
spicing things up in 2016.

States Likely to
Loosen Restrictions for
Online Fantasy Sports
Most states will move
toward more gamblingfriendly stances regarding
sports betting and various
types of fantasy play by
2016’s end, says a University of Alabama sports
communication expert. Despite concerns about the
rise of daily fantasy sports
and other potentially gray
areas in gambling laws,
states (and professional
sports leagues) likely will
be on the side of loosening
restrictions rather than
drafting new ones, says Dr.
Andrew Billings, UA’s
Ronald Reagan Chair of
Broadcasting.

GOP to Hold On to
Congress
Republicans will retain
control of the House and
Senate in the 2016 Congressional elections, as national security concerns,
continued effects of the
2010 redistricting, and relatively low turnout (for a
presidential year) will
thwart any chance of a
Democratic Congressional
comeback, predicts Dr.
Stephen Borrelli, University of Alabama professor
of political science. Depending on who the Republican nominee is, there may
also be the desire among
some voters to “check” a
Democratic vote for presi-
dent.

Reports of Cyber Attacks will Grow
Cyber attacks worldwide are likely to increase
in 2016 as internet connectivity rates grow, says a
University of Alabama assistant professor of criminal
justice. It’s less clear, says
Dr. Diana Dolliver, whether
rates in cyber attacks are increasing because of a rise in
the actual number of individuals and groups conducting and launching
offensive cyber maneuvers
or whether the reporting of
cybercrimes and attacks is
improving. The truth, Dolliver says, is likely a combination of the two, and
accurate reporting will only
continue improving. And,
2016 likely will see continued cyber-related legislation
developed
and
discussed,
she
says.
“Given the terrorist-related
events of 2015, any legislative proposals are likely to
emphasize increasing law
enforcement’s abilities to
monitor and detect cyberbased threats,” Dolliver
says.

Push to Expand Medicaid in Alabama
The Alabama Legislature will have new and critical conversations about
expanding Medicaid services in Alabama, as more of
the state’s working families
fall into the uninsured coverage gap, predicts Dr. Lea
Yerby, assistant professor
of community and rural
medicine in the College of
Community Health Sciences at The University of
Alabama. Alabama residents will push their legislators to go past political
rhetoric and “problem
solve” coverage when their
own communities are affected by the loss of local
hospitals, health care access
and related jobs and industry. Currently, 139,000 people in the state are without
insurance, she says.

Fast Food to Continue Transformation to
Fast Casual
The fast-food industry
will continue its transformation in 2016 to more of a
“fast casual,” atmosphere
with improving food quality and increasing “build
your own” combo formats,
predicts Sheena Quizon
Gregg, a registered dietitian
and assistant director in the
department of health promotion and wellness at The
University of Alabama. The
formal restaurant scene will
see an emphasis on more
authentic ethnic cuisine.
Many restaurants will see a
focus on suppliers specializing in producing food
from non-genetically modified organisms.

Foreign Policy to
Take a Back Seat in Presidential Race
Foreign policy and terrorism will not be significant issues in the 2016
presidential election (or any
of the 2016 elections) in the
United States, predicts Dr.
Douglas Gibler, a University of Alabama professor
of political science. The
United States rests isolated
from conflict by two large
oceans and friendly neighbors. So, while politicians
may try to make foreign
policy relevant, the average
American is almost never
affected by most foreign
conflicts, and many other
issues end up mattering
more to voters. This is even
true for international terrorism.

In-state Jobs to Increase by 1 Percent
Alabama’s economy
will grow in 2016, and total
payrolls will increase by
about 1 percent, adding
about 25,000 to 30,000
jobs, predicts Ahmad Ijaz,
director of economic forecasting within the Center
for Business and Economic
Research at The University
of Alabama. Most new jobs
will be in accommodation
and food services, administrative support and waste
management, and health
care and social assistancerelated services, he says.
Within manufacturing industries, almost all new
jobs will be in transportation-related manufacturing.
Most other industries are
expected to lose jobs, he
says.

Regulations, Cheap
Natural Gas Mean No Return to Coal
The double whammy
of continued low prices for
natural gas along with government environmental regulations will mean electric
utilities will continue using
natural gas to replace coalfired power generation, predicts Dr. Jason Bara, a
University of Alabama professor of chemical and biological engineering. “It’s
the easiest and most costeffective way to significantly reduce emissions in
the near term while utilizing existing infrastructure,”
Bara says. “Solar, wind, renewables and, perhaps
most importantly, energy
efficiency will also play increasingly major roles
moving forward. ‘Cleaner’
coal, in the form of CCUS
(carbon capture, utilization
and sequestration) technologies are still actively
under development, but
until/unless they are proven
and deployed at large
scales, coal will be in a prolonged hibernation in the
U.S.”

Area Devotional Guide
Expect Your Greatest Year
By Roger Campbell
Standing at the portal of a new year can be intimidating; especially if the past one has been painful. We’re tempted then to expect a repeat
performance during the year just arriving. But grieving over disappointing yesterdays robs us of the joyful anticipation of our tomorrows which
is a vital ingredient in making the future all it can be.
I once wrote a column entitled “THINGS MAY TURN OUT BETTER THAN YOU THINK” that was intended to enable troubled people to
look past their present problems to better days ahead. The response by readers was so strong that this column was reprinted as a tract that has
been placed in the hands of thousands of fearful people.
The title of this tract is true!
Tomorrow may be terrific and this may be your greatest year, but for this to be true you may have to change your definition of greatness.
Unless you resist, you may be influenced by those who associate greatness with getting. This could cause your future to revolve around what
you can accumulate and sentence you to just another year as a junk collector.
A family once wrote to me from Alaska saying they had become so disappointed about how things were going in their lives that they were
going through the big “Ds,” feeling DISCOURAGED, DEPRESSED, DEFEATED, DEJECTED, DISTURBED, DOWNCAST, DRAINED AND
DUMBFOUNDED, closing their letter by adding that they were in the dumps.
How can you trade your fears for faith and your bad memories for good expectations?
Try looking up! That’s what the Psalmist did on one of his dark days.
Refusing to surrender to despair and negativism he said he had decided to turn his eyes heavenward, writing: “I will lift up my eyes to the
hills, from whence comes my help. My help comes from the LORD who made heaven and earth (Psalm 121:1-2).
George Mueller of Bristol, England, who became known for his great work of providing for orphans without ever asking for financial help
from others, said trials are not the enemies of faith but opportunities to prove God’s faithfulness. This enabled him to start each day expecting
his Lord to come through for him regardless of the difficulties he was facing.
Are you fearful about financial problems during this New Year? Take those money problems to the Master and expect Him to provide for
every need you’re facing. Are family conflicts driving you to despair? Enlist the power of prayer to change the atmosphere of your home this
year.
In his book, “God is My Delight,” noted devotional writer W. Phillip Keller, wrote:
“Steadily, but surely, I have come to realize that every interaction, every command, every principle He has established for my ultimate good.”
Another has simply said, “God is good all the time!”When we embrace faith and reject fear, we can expect our greatest year.
