By LARRY C. BOWERS
Banner Staff Writer
Siema Swartzel, music teacher at Arnold Memorial
Elementary School, has been named the Southeast
Tennessee Regional Teacher of the Year for elementary
grades.
Swartzel is one of three teachers from the Southeast
Core Area selected, representing the region’s elementary
teachers.
Two other Southeast teachers were selected to represent educators from middle school and high school categories.
The middle school representative is a teacher in the

Polk County School System, although she only teaches
the fifth grade. Polk County Director Joel Cox said the
breakup of grades is unusual.
Sarah Haynes of South Polk Elementary School was
one of the three teachers selected from Southeast
Tennessee, joining Swartzel. She is the former Sarah
Rogers, and is married to James Haynes, agriculture
instructor at Bradley Central High School.
This year’s award winners were selected by a group of
regional judges, and one of the three will be selected to
represent Southeast Tennessee in the state Teacher of
the Year finals in October.
This is the fourth consecutive year Cleveland City
Schools has had a teacher competing for Tennessee
Teacher of the Year honors.
This year’s Teachers of the Year from each city school
were selected recently, including Swartzel. These top educators will be announced and recognized at Monday’s
scheduled Cleveland Board of Education meeting at the
Cleveland City Schools central office.
Swartzel said this morning she is honored to be selected as one of the state’s outstanding teachers, and represent the teachers of Cleveland City Schools.
“It is great to represent all our Cleveland teachers,” she
said. “They all do wonderful, wonderful work every day.”
She also praised the staff at Arnold Memorial School.

JACK’S KLEEN-RITE will officially close its doors on Saturday. The dry cleaner has been a part
of Cleveland for 63 years, and has been on Inman Street for most of that time. The business has

After 63 years, a staple of Cleveland — Jack’s
Kleen-Rite — will officially close its doors this
Saturday, and there is a sense of loss and sadness at seeing the dry cleaner shut down.
Jackie Scoggins, who has worked at the business since she was 12, said it is time for her to
retire, and decided that with her retirement, it
is time to close the facility. She admitted she is
not sure what she will do, but being in her 70s,
she just felt it was time to do something else,
whatever that may be.
“It has been a great 63 years, and it’s amazing to hear from so many of the people who

The Cleveland and Bradley County community has had its share of tornadoes in
the past, and will assuredly have similar
weather in the years to come.
As officials say, being prepared for such
weather is the first step to survival.
Cleveland and Bradley County school
systems realize that possibility, and plan as
well as possible with safety drills. On
Wednesday, as a part of Severe Weather
Awareness Week, every school in the two
systems held early afternoon tornado drills.
“This is our first of the year, and our kids
did great,” said Lisa Earby, principial at
E.L. Ross Elementary School. “We have
talked about it, and their teachers have
talked about it with them — the position
they should be in, not talking and not being
afraid.”
The students were led to interior hallways single file, faced those walls and had
special protection for their heads, in most
cases utilizing school books.
Earby said being prepared is important
as most of the children at her school have
not experienced a tornado while there.

Amazon amplifies Alexa line
of voice-controlled devices
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) —
Amazon.com is introducing two
devices designed to amplify the
role its voice-controlled assistant
Alexa plays in people’s homes and
lives.
The
products
unveiled
Thursday are echoes of Amazon’s
Echo, a cylinder-shaped speaker
with Internet-connected microphones that became Alexa’s first
major showcase when it debuted
in late 2014. Set these gadgets up
and they’ll listen for your voice
and respond to commands — for
instance, to read the morning’s
headlines.
Both new devices, called the
Amazon Tap and Echo Dot, cost
less than the $180 Echo and offer
slightly different features in an
attempt to plant Amazon’s
Internet-connected microphones
in more homes and other places.
In doing so, Amazon hopes to
outmaneuver rivals Google and
Apple in their battle to build hubs
in “smart” homes that are being
furnished with appliances, electronics and other accoutrements
that connect to the Internet.
Alexa is competing against
other voice-controlled services
such as Apple’s Siri, Microsoft’s
Cortana and Google’s search
engine that are built into the
operating systems of smartphones and other devices that do
more than the Echo.
The interest in smart homes
appears to be rising as more people become enamored with their
smartphones. A recent online

in the U.S. by Forrester
Research’s Technographics found
57 percent of them either had
used or were interested in using a
smart home device.
Alexa, a riff on the Library of
Alexandria, initially didn’t do
much but answer trivia questions, play music and order stuff
from Amazon’s website. The
device’s limited range raised the
prospect that it might be a passing fancy or little more than a
cute party trick for consumers
who could afford to indulge in a
curiosity like the Echo.
But the assistant has become
increasingly
versatile
as
Amazon.com Inc. learned more
about what customers want. Last
summer, the company gave outside programmers the ability to
build applications that work with
Alexa in a move that expanded
service’s skillset. Alexa can now
perform more than 300 tasks,
such as hailing car rides, turning
on lights and controlling home
thermostats.
The Echo now ranks among
Seattle-based Amazon’s top-selling items in consumer electronics, although the company hasn’t
specified how many have been
sold so far. “The response has
been nothing short of incredible,”
boasted David Limp, Amazon’s
senior vice president of devices.
The 6.25-inch Amazon Tap is a
slimmed down “grab and go” version of the 9.25-inch Echo that
sells for $130. Unlike the Echo,
the Amazon Tap doesn’t need to
be plugged in.

Cleveland Daily Banner—Thursday, March 3, 2016—3
Judge would be first Indian-American named to Supreme Court
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Sri
Srinivasan, a federal appeals
judge who was born in India and
grew up in Kansas, would be the
first foreign-born justice to serve
on the Supreme Court in more
than 50 years.
The 49-year-old Srinivasan is
one of several people being mentioned prominently as a potential
replacement for Justice Antonin
Scalia, who died last month. A
judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia
Circuit, Srinivasan would bring to
the high court previous experience
as an attorney in private practice,
a law clerk to two Republicanappointed judges and a highranking official in the Obama
Justice Department.
He has a “first-rate intellect, an
open-minded approach to the law,
a strong work ethic, and an unimpeachable character,” high-ranking Justice Department veterans
of Democratic and Republican
administrations said in a letter
endorsing him for the appeals
court. The bipartisan warmth
extended to his 97-0 confirmation
vote by the Senate in 2013.
Srinivasan told the Senate
Judiciary Committee then that he
has “a deep respect for the need
for strict objectivity and impartial-
ity in the task of judging,” citing
both his work for Vice President Al
Gore after the 2000 presidential
election and his later work in the
Justice
Department
under
Solicitor General Theodore Olson,
who was the lead lawyer for
George W. Bush in the Supreme
Court case that decided the 2000
race.
“I think any objection to Sri
would have to be based on notions
that he’s either not conservative
enough or not liberal enough,”
said Stephen McAllister, a law professor at the University of Kansas.
“It could not be intellectual ability,
could not be writing ability, it
could not be his general competence in the law,” McAllister said.
“He’s just extremely talented in all
respects.”
His nomination to the appeals
court did provoke some criticism
from liberal interest groups who
objected to his work in private
practice representing former
Enron Corp CEO Jeff Skilling in
his successful Supreme Court
appeal, and represented Exxon
Mobil Corp and mining company
Rio Tinto in lawsuits alleging their
connection to human rights abuses abroad.
Srinivasan would be the court’s
first Indian-American and its first
Hindu, on a bench with five
Catholics and three Jews. The last
justice who was born overseas
was
Austrian-born
Felix
Frankfurter, who retired from the
court in 1962.
Srinivasan grew up in
Lawrence, Kansas, where his parents taught at the University of
Kansas and he played high-school
basketball. He remains an avid
Kansas basketball fan and tries to
return for a game once a year, said
McAllister.
He received his bachelor’s
degree, law degree and MBA from
Stanford University. He clerked for
U.S. Circuit Judge J. Harvie
Wilkinson in Richmond, Virginia,
and former Supreme Court
Justice Sandra Day O’Connor,
both appointed by President
Ronald Reagan. He also worked in
a junior Justice Department position during the Bush administration and as the top political deputy
in the Solicitor General’s office in
the Obama administration.
If nominated and confirmed,
Srinivasan would have to step
aside from high court consideration of two cases he has been
involved with on the federal
appeals court. He has been considering challenges to the Obama
administration’s plan to address
climate change, and “net neutrality” rules that regulate how the
Internet is delivered to consumers.
Deanell Tacha, a native Kansan
who is now dean of the Pepperdine
Law School, calls Srinivasan a
“man of great integrity, high intellect and extraordinary qualifications.”
“He cares about other people,”
she said. “He’s generous of spirit,
and he’s amazingly humble.”
And perhaps a tad superstitious. He regularly carried his twin
children’s baby socks to Supreme
DON’S

Since 1961
that Daraprim was already distributed under such a system when it
acquired the drug.
Many larger drugmakers have
also turned drug distribution into
a powerful tool against competition. The strategy takes advantage
of a simple fact: If generic drugmakers can’t get their hands on
the original product, they cannot
perform the tests needed to develop a generic version. Typically
generic drugmakers purchase
drugs in bulk from third-party
suppliers. But when the original
drugmaker controls the drug’s distribution, they can simply refuse to
sell.
The effect on patients is higher
prices for drugs that would otherwise be available as low-cost
generics. Doctors say these tactics
“continue to stand in the way of
patients’ access.”
“The most effective way to
improve access and lower prices is
to ensure that generic drugs get to
market as quickly as possible,”
says Dr. Ameet Sarpatwari, of
Harvard Medical School, who has
studied the issue.
At least 40 drugs worth an estimated $5.4 billion are sheltered
from competition by distribution
hurdles, according to a study commissioned by the Generic
Pharmaceutical Association, an
industry trade group.
The
Food
and
Drug
Administration is aware of the misuse of distribution programs. The
agency said in a statement it has
received 100 letters from companies that say they have been
blocked from obtaining drugs for
testing purposes. The agency’s
own regulations prohibit drugmakers from using certain types of distribution plans to block generic
access, but the agency does not
penalize companies for the practice.
TENNESSEE BRIEFS
More Tennessee taxpayers filing
electronic returns this year
NASHVILLE (AP) — The number of electronic federal tax
returns filed so far from
Tennessee has increased from
last year.
The Internal Revenue Service
in Atlanta says as of Feb. 29, 1.4
million electronic returns have
been filed from Tennessee. IRS
spokesman Mark S. Green says
taxpayers’ refunds have also
increased this year to an average
of $3,128.
The IRS expects more than
150 million tax returns to be filed
this year.
Because of the Emancipation
Day holiday in Washington on
Friday, April 15, taxpayers have
until April 18 to file and pay any
tax due. In Maine and
Massachusetts, the deadline is
April 19 because of Patriot’s Day
observances on April 18.

William, Emma are top baby
names in Tennessee
NASHVILLE (AP) — Tennessee
record keepers say the top names
for new babies in 2015 remained
unchanged.
The most popular boy’s name
was William, just as it has been
for nine straight years. For girls,
Emma was again the most popular name, continuing the placement it has held since 2011.
The Tennessee Office of Vital
Records says following William,
the most popular names for boys
last year were James, Elijah,
Mason, Noah, Liam, Jackson,
Jacob, John and Carter, a newcomer to the list.
For girls, the top names after
Emma in 2015 were Olivia, Ava,
Harper,
Abigail,
Sophia,
Elizabeth, Isabella, Madison and
Emily. The No. 10 name, Emily,
is also new to the latest standings.
The Office of Vital Records
pulls data on Tennessee’s most
popular baby names from birth
certificates.
Funding for new Nashville
courthouse passes final hurdle
NASHVILLE (AP) — Nashville is
set to get a new federal courthouse after funding passed a
final hurdle in Washington.
According to the office of U.S.
Rep. Jim Cooper, the House
Committee on Transportation
and Infrastructure approved the
funding on Wednesday. That was
the final approval needed for the
$181.5 million project to move
forward.
The Nashville Democrat said in
a news release the city has needed a new courthouse for more
than 20 years for safety reasons.
1 dead in wrong-way crash
on Interstate 24 in Clarksville
CLARKSVILLE (AP) — Police
say one person is dead following
a wrong-way crash on Interstate
24 in Clarksville.
Tennessee Highway Patrol Sgt.
Travis Plotzer told media that the
car was traveling west in the
eastbound
lanes
early
Wednesday when it crashed into
a commercial vehicle.
Police said a person inside the
car died, but no names have
been released.
Eastbound lanes were shut
down for hours while police
cleared the scene. Police continue to investigate the crash.
Gov. Haslam takes issue with
Trump on immigration, abortion
NASHVILLE (AP) — Tennessee
Gov. Bill Haslam says Donald
Trump would need to make
major policy changes before he
could consider supporting the
front-runner for the Republican
presidential nomination.
Haslam told The Associated
Press on Wednesday that Trump,
who easily won the state’s GOP
primary, would have to make a
more “blatant disavowal” of white
supremacist groups, take a
stronger stand against abortion
and step back from his proposal
to ban Muslims from entering the
country.
Haslam endorsed Marco Rubio
before the state’s Super Tuesday
primary, but the Florida senator
came in third behind Trump and
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
According to exit polls
Tuesday, about seven in 10
Republicans said they support
temporarily banning Muslims
who are not citizens from entering the United States.
Trump, Clinton win presidential
primaries in Tennessee
NASHVILLE (AP) — Republican
turnout Tuesday outstripped
Democrats by more than 2-to-1
in Tennessee, a show of muscle
that encouraged the state’s GOP
leaders even if they didn’t back
winner Donald Trump.
Gov. Bill Haslam and U.S. Sen.
Lamar Alexander endorsed
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who
came in third behind Texas Sen.
Ted Cruz.
The governor said he was
“encouraged” by the voting totals,
but he has not yet said whether
he would support Trump if he
ends up the GOP nominee.
Tennessee’s junior senator,
Bob Corker, did not endorse
before the primary, but he said
he plans to support the GOP
nominee this fall. Corker said the
primary showed “anger and dissatisfaction” among voters in
both parties with fiscal, economic
and security issues.
One Republican voicing strong
support for Trump’s win was
state Senate Speaker Ron
Ramsey of Blountville, who said
his campaign “has electrified
Republican and independent voters alike.”
“The Trump campaign is giving
voice to frustrated and alienated
Americans who had all but abandoned the political process,”
Ramsey said. “If Donald Trump
continues on this path to the
nomination, I will support him
wholeheartedly.”
Exit polling showed nearly 6 in
10 Republican voters felt they
had been betrayed by politicians
from their party, and voters said
they were attracted to Trump’s
outsider status.
With all Republican precincts
reporting, Trump had 39 percent
of the vote, compared with 25
percent for Cruz and 21 percent
for Rubio. Trump won every
Tennessee
county
except
Williamson, where Rubio won.
Clinton had 66 percent of the
Democratic vote, compared with
32 percent for Vermont Sen.
Bernie Sanders.
The record turnout of 1.2 million for both the Republican and
Democratic primaries was nearly
50,000 more than the number
who voted in the 2008 contest.
Sixty-seven delegates were up
for grabs in the Democratic primary, while 58 delegates are
available to Republican candidates. Republican candidates had
to meet a threshold of at least 20
percent of the vote to qualify for
any statewide delegates.
Based on Associated Press
projections,
at
least
31
Tennessee delegates will go to
Trump, 14 to Cruz and nine to
Rubio.

The trend began in 2007, when
the FDA began requiring risk-management plans for certain drugs.
The plans often feature various
restrictions to make sure drugs are
used safely, including limits on
who can distribute them. But
drugmakers realized these measures could also be used to keep
their drugs away from competitors.
And even drugs that didn’t require
risk-management could utilize the
strategy.
Daraprim is an example of a
drug that has no major safety risks
and was previously available
through various wholesalers and
distributors. But last June — three
months before its sale to Turing —
Daraprim was moved into a closed
distribution program, allowing the
manufacturer to refuse sales to
competitors.
The effect for patients was jarring. The drug — which treats an
infection mainly found in people
with HIV and cancer — had previously been available through local
pharmacies. Now it is distributed
through a specialty division of
Walgreen’s, which sells the drug at
Turing’s list price of $750 per pill.

Drug distribution becomes weapon to block competition
WASHINGTON (AP) — The same
strategy that Martin Shkreli used
to get away with a 5,000-percent
price increase on an old drug is
used by many other drugmakers to
maintain sky-high prices on billions of dollars’ worth of medications.
Before the price hike that made
him infamous, the former CEO of
Turing Pharmaceuticals had to
ensure that no competitor would
be able to launch a cheaper version of Daraprim, the 60-year-old
anti-infection pill that is no longer
under patent.
Shkreli had the perfect weapon:
a tightly-controlled distribution
system which would make it virtually impossible for a competitor to
obtain enough Daraprim to develop their own version.
Shkreli, who resigned in
December, did not invent the
closed distribution technique. And
his former company, Turing, notes
Court arguments and pulled them
from his pocket at his investiture
on the appeals court, longtime
legal affairs writer Tony Mauro
reported in 2013.

Tips for making jewelry on a budget
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Back in
junior high school, I fell in love
with bohemian turquoise jewelry
and started frequenting bead
stores, amassing stones and
beads to make necklaces that
looked cheaply boho chic.
Decades later, my passion for
jewelry-making remains, but now
I not only scour bead stores and
crafts fairs, but also web retailers
for deals.
From stringing together beads
of all kinds — dyed blue jade, cool
to the touch, and black lava — to
buying materials in bulk online,
creating jewelry on a budget is
easy and fun. Hollywood starlets
may glitter in jewels worth millions of dollars, but you can
sparkle like an Oscar winner too,
for much less.
“We get a lot of customers who
want to make jewelry for loved
ones and friends, and they don’t
want to spend too much,” said
Caroline Atamian, 34, who works
for Southern California beadstore chain the Bead Source.
Inside the company’s store in
the LA hipster neighborhood of
Silver Lake, Atamian stood surrounded by spools of chain, silk
cord and strands of glass and
stone beads, ranging from roughly $6 to $52 per strand, in a rainbow of colors. Dozens of containers brimmed with individual
wooden, metalized plastic and
metal beads in various shapes —
stars, hearts, circles — priced as
low as 5 cents per bead. Atamian
noted that making a spiffy necklace can cost as little as $5, and
take five minutes.
“You can buy a piece of chain
— sterling, gold-filled or metal,
but metal chains are always less
expensive — and pick out a cute
charm, or a pendant, for a few
dollars, and hang it off the
chain,” Atamian said. “For people
who don’t know how to make jewelry, it’s easy for them to do.”
A metal jump ring — a small,
round wire ring — would need to
AP photo
THIS PHOTO shows employee Caroline Atamian, 34, at a bead
store the Bead Source in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los
Angeles. From scouring local bead stores and craft fairs for cheap,
colorful beads for necklaces to hanging a stone pendant on a simple
metal chain and buying materials in bulk online, making jewelry on a
budget is not only easy, but fun.
be attached to one side of the
chain, in the back, and another
jump ring would need to be
added to the other side of the
chain and attached to a clasp.
For a simple bracelet, beads
can be strung on an elastic cord
with the ends tied together. An
over-the-head necklace without a
clasp can be made out of two
strands of beads strung on a silk
cord, retailing at $1.89 for 6 feet
of string.
“For basically $20, you can
make a long necklace,” Atamian
said, pointing to two strands of
sunny yellow round beads at $10
per strand.
Semi-precious stones such as
jade and dark green malachite
cost more.
Necessary jewelry tools include
chain nose pliers, round nose pliers and cutters, all for twisting
wires, said Atamian. The store
sold a set of all three for $15.95.
For Melissa Campbell of
Cambridge, Massachusetts, jewelry-making has gone from a
hobby to a business. She
launched her Etsy.com store “little pancakes” in 2009 to relieve
stress from her then-job in early
education, but has concentrated
on it full-time for the past three
years.
Mixing metal with natural
materials, opals and gemstones,
her minimal pieces range from a
$30 bronze cuff stamped with the
words “Treat Yo Self” to $10 goldplated tiny stud earrings shaped
like stars.
“I started with some chains,
some pliers, some jump rings,
and went from there,” she said.
Campbell suggested that
novices take a basic jewelry-making class to learn about working
with jump rings and about techniques such as wire wrapping.
Flea markets and vintage
stores are also great places to get
affordable supplies.
“You find a vintage necklace
with several charms on it and
you can make earrings from the
charms,” Campbell said.
As for pulling together a good,
working collection of beads and
tools, she recommended turning
to Etsy or other online marketplaces.
“You get the personal connection with the seller, and people
will want to work with you, so
you can customize your orders,”
she said.
Atamian, on the other hand,
says that buying in person is a
better way to know whether
you’re getting what you pay for.
“People say, ‘Well, I can find
that cheaper online!’” Atamian
said. “Of course you can find
everything cheaper online, but
you don’t really get to see what
you’re buying beforehand. The
size may be wrong. The color, not
great. This way, when you come
in here, you can see the materials
first, and touch them, feel them.”
Cambodia’s Kampot pepper wins coveted EU protection
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP)
— Cambodia’s Kampot pepper, a
go-to spice for chefs around the
world, has joined an elite group of
gourmet food items whose names
are protected by the European
Union, joining products such as
Gruyere cheese from France and
Parma ham from Italy.
The coveted designation,
known as Protected Geographical
Indication, or PGI, works like a
trademark protection that certifies the origin of regional foods. It
means that any product sold in
EU countries calling itself
“Kampot pepper” must come
from a designated region in
southern
Cambodia
that
includes Kampot and neighboring Kep province.
The recognition was awarded
to Kampot pepper on Feb. 18,
making it the first Cambodian
product to receive the label, the
EU office in Cambodia said in a
statement this week.
The peppercorns, which come
in white, red and black, are
described by gourmet chefs as

The key hiding place
Dear Readers: A while back, a
reader wanted some suggestions
about “hiding” a key as a SPARE
KEY. Here are some of your
responses:
“I have a key-coded garagedoor opener, but if the power is
out, that won’t work. I installed a
key-coded deadbolt on the front
door. It was very easy to install; I

the bags in the carafe, and they
will steep longer. So simple, yet
so smart!

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP)
— Setting aside even a few minutes a day for meditation and
mindfulness can sometimes feel
like just one more thing to do. We
asked meditation teachers from
various disciplines to share some
quick and easy ways to help stay
grounded at work, at home or on
the go.
—Mindfulness at Work from
Sharon Salzberg, meditation
teacher and author of “Real
Happiness”
It’s totally private, you don’t
have to sit cross-legged on the
floor and start changing. No one
will know you’re doing it, but
breathing is a powerful, simple
way to come back to yourself and
center yourself
Don’t pick up the phone on the
first ring. Let it ring three times,
stop and breathe and then pick it
up. Start to train yourself to use
the sound of the phone ringing as
a signal and use that time to take
a breath and come back. It’s a
way to cut through crazy momentum of the work day.
The same can be done with
email. Don’t press send right
away, just take a few breaths and
then read it again.
—The M-Word technique from
Emily Fletcher, former Broadway
actress and founder of Ziva
Meditation
Sit with your back supported
and your head free. Check the
time then close your eyes. Gently
hear the word “one” in the background of your mind. You will
have other thoughts and that’s
OK, simply come back to the
word “one” when you notice you
are fantasizing about what kind
of snack you would like.

AN OLDER PHOTOGRAPH of Jack’s Kleen-Rite on Inman Street is not much different from the present-day building. The business’ last day in operation will be Saturday, as which time Jack’s Kleen-Rite,
which has been a part of Cleveland for 63 years, will close.
Contributed photo
ALWAYS A FAMILY BUSINESS, Jack’s Kleen-Rite has been managed for the past several years by
Jack Wilson’s daughter, Jackie Scoggins. At one of the cleaner’s locations are, from left: Jack and Marco
Wilson, and Jackie and R.L. Scoggins.
gy and manufacturing export
sectors, Ian Shepherdson, chief
economist
at
Pantheon
Macroeconomics, said in a
report.
KEY DRIVERS: Americans are
shopping and eating out at
restaurants, helping to offset
drags from weaker growth overseas. Consumer spending
accounts for about 70 percent of
U.S. economic activity, and
economists expect it will help
bolster US growth this year,
even as manufacturing and
exports likely remain weak.
Americans are also spending
more on big-ticket items such as
cars and homes.
Economists forecast the U.S.
economy will expand about 2.3
percent this year, consistent
with the modest growth registered during the six-year recovery from the Great Recession.

Middle School and named
Jack’s Kleen-Rite, then moved
to the small building just up
Ocoee Street in the Watson’s Tip
Town parking area in 1992 in
the former Kay’s Castle ice
cream shop.
“We had so many people who
were pleased to see us move
there, but many who were sad to
see the ice cream cone brought
down from the building and
Kay’s Castle close,” Scoggins
said.
Jack’s Kleen-Rite also had a
dry cleaning drop-off site on
Keith Street located in what is
now Garden Plaza.
Not only did Jack’s Kleen-Rite
become a part of Cleveland, but
Wilson had dry cleaners in
Dalton, Ga., in the ’60s, and in
Kingston in the ’80s and early
’90s.
“We would have someone from
Cleveland pick up the clothes,
bring them back here, and then
have that person take them
back,” she recollected. “It was
usually two or three days before
they got them back, but we never
heard complaints.”
Scoggins remembered that the
entire family became a part of the
business, and without them, it
would not have succeeded. She
added that the loyal customers of
the business were very important
to its 63 years of life.
Her father was not only in the
dry cleaning business, but while
working there was also involved
WASHINGTON (AP) — More
Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week, but
their numbers remained low
enough to suggest that layoffs
are rare and the job market is
healthy.
THE NUMBERS: The Labor
Department said Thursday that
the number of people seeking
jobless aid rose by 6,000 to a
seasonally adjusted 278,000,
highest since the end of
January. The less-volatile fourweek moving average slipped by
1,750 to 270,250, lowest since
late November. The number of
people collecting benefits has
dropped 6.2 percent over the
past year to 2.26 million.
THE TAKEAWAY: The figures,
released a day before the government’s February report on
job creation and unemployment,
show the U.S. job market
remains resilient in the face of
economic weakness overseas
and turmoil in financial markets. Applications are a proxy
for layoffs, and have been at historically low levels for nearly a
year. Employers appear confident enough in future growth to
hold onto their staffs.
Job gains have been solid for
the past three years, pushing
the unemployment rate down to
an eight-year low of 4.9 percent.
On Wednesday, the payroll
processor ADP reported that
U.S. businesses added a healthy
214,000 jobs in February, up
from 193,000 in January.
Manufacturers have been
hurt by the trouble overseas,
cutbacks in the energy industry
and a strong dollar that makes
their goods more expensive in
foreign markets. But their problems do not seem to be having a
big impact on jobs. The labor
market remains in good health,
despite the troubles in the ener-
“I am so proud of my
dad and my family for
keeping this business
going for so long, but it
is time to say goodbye. I
hope to see many of the
friends I have made
while working there in
the future, but it is time
to do something else.”
— Jackie Scoggins
in the building of the Village Mall
(now known as the Village
Green). He would spend many
hours a day working at both jobs,
but when he was at Jack’s he
was always noticeable because of
his attire.
“He always wore a tie and
looked as professional as he
could,” Scoggins said. “He had a
pride in his appearance, and he
was always looking so nice.”
Jack’s Kleen-Rite did some
things in dry cleaning that were
new to Cleveland, such as prewashing jeans back when that
was very popular.
“One of the things that I
remember most was men downtown coming in and having their
pants pressed while they waited,
so they could some in, take off
their pants, we would press them
and give them back,” she said
with a laugh. “Then, they would
walk uptown looking as sharp as
they could.”
One photograph the cleaners
had on the wall showed men on a
golf putting green while waiting
on suits to be pressed.
Not only did Jack’s Kleen-Rite
have dry cleaning services, but
also a shoe shining machine that
was used quite often. The
machine still exists, as does a
large scale that the cleaners used
which Scoggins said has been
promised to others as the business closes.
Her father expanded his business to include a laundromat on
Georgetown Road that still exists,
but other sites will probably see
new businesses come in. In fact,
the North Ocoee Street location
already has a Jersey Mike’s sub
shop preparing to open there.
“I am so proud of my dad and
my family for keeping this business going for so long, but it is
time to say goodbye,” Scoggins
said. “I hope to see many of the
friends I have made while working there in the future, but it is
time to do something else.”
Funny thing is, in an interview
with Scoggins in 1989, she told
the Cleveland Daily Banner that
“I’d make somebody a real good
employee when I retire.”
It is time, though, for Scoggins
and family to spend some time
on themselves and family. Still,
there will always be a soft place
in the heart of Cleveland and
Bradley County residents for
Jack’s Kleen-Rite.

ORIGINATING AS Central Avenue Cleaners in 1953, Jack’s Kleen-Rite served Cleveland from different locations. Like looking at old grocery ads, seeing the front window featuring suits and/or dresses
being cleaned for 70 cents provides a look at those days which have long since passed into history.

energy to pursue the things you feel passionate about. This will be a year to excel
in both your personal or professional
objectives. Don't waste time when you
should be making every minute count.
Live in the moment and you will bring
about a positive future. Your numbers
are 7, 18, 20, 27, 34, 40, 49.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Offer
incentives if you want someone to do
something for you. Perfection is a nice
idea, but simply enjoying what you do
will make your life better. Pick up whatever documentation or skills you need to
follow your dream.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Share
ideas with friends and you will gather a
vast amount of information that will help
you make a decision about an organization you might want to join. Don't jeopardize your health or a meaningful relationship by being stubborn or unrealistic.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Expect
someone to try to entice you into doing
something questionable. Be on guard
and strive to protect your reputation. You
don't have to get angry, just know when
to say "no." Making the right choices will
help stabilize your future.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Take
advantage of any opportunity you get to
work from home or to entertain your
peers. Try to gain perspective on how
you can get ahead, and establish partnerships with the people with whom you
are compatible. Progressive action will
bring positive results.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be wary of
anyone who exhibits unpredictable traits.
Only make the changes you feel comfortable with and don't rely on anyone
else to cover for you or take care of your
responsibilities. Do your own thing.
Romance looks inviting.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Listen to
complaints and offer solutions.
Expressing your feelings will help people
relate to you and understand the
endeavors you want to pursue. Get
involved in an activity or group that is
geared toward self-improvement.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Assess
your current position and the people you
are dealing with daily, and consider how
satisfied you are with the way things are
going. Only you can determine whether
you want a change in your life and how
to make it happen.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
Reconnecting with someone from your
past will get you back on track. Don't
hesitate to make changes to the way you
live. Not everyone will be pleased with
your decisions, but you have to do
what's best for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A
problem with a friend or relative will
develop. Express your thoughts in simple terms and ask questions if you feel
uncertain about what someone is telling
you. Clear the air so you can make a
decision and take action.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Attend a reunion or make arrangements
to get together with an old friend. Share
a dream with someone who has the
potential to help you grow it into something quite unique or prosperous.
Explore your options.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your
ability to be fair will encourage the people you deal with to express their ideas
openly. Use advice from others to help
you decide what you want to do next. A
change in direction or a chance to try
something new looks inviting.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Ask
questions if you are in doubt. A partnership will be enhanced by the activities
and events you share and the challenges you overcome together. Don't let
uncertainty or insecurity cloud your
vision or cause you to back away from
someone special.
Birthday Baby: You are masterful,
unique and persuasive. You are driven
and observant.

You, Me and the Apocalypse
Jude (Rob Lowe) makes a trek to Slough
to give information to Jamie (Mathew
Baynton), whose biological mother has
just passed on, in the new episode “Home
Sweet Home.” Rhonda (Jenna Fischer)
also has family concerns, dodging police to
reach her relatives — and prompting Scotty
(Kyle Soller) to undertake larceny. Sutton
(Diana Rigg) also considers delving into illegal actions. Megan Mullally, Pauline Quirke
and Joel Fry also star.
9 p.m. on (WTVC)
The Family
Since series creator Jenna Bans is a
longtime associate of Shonda Rhimes, it’s
logical that her new series launches on the
night the producer “owns.” Normally to be
seen on Sundays, the drama casts Joan
Allen as the mayor of a Maine town where
her kidnapped son (Liam James) returns,
just as she declares her gubernatorial bid.
Rupert Graves and Alison Pill (“The Newsroom”) play other family members in the
“Pilot,” with Andrew McCarthy in an imagebusting role.
9 p.m. on (WE)
Mary Mary
Season 5 opens with sisters Erica and
Tina Campbell both enjoying solo career
success, which brings with it an unfamiliar
sense of rivalry between these two erstwhile performing partners. Erica is at the
top of her game, having copped Grammy,
Dove and Soul Train awards. Tina’s solo
career is also on the rise, but in the season
premiere, Sony Records is leaning on Warryn Campbell to deliver a long-awaited Mary
Mary album. It’s up to Erica to convince her
sister the time is right for them to reunite.
9 p.m. on (FNC)
Republican Presidential Primary Debate
Candidates for the Republican presidential
nomination face off in Detroit, moderated
by Fox News co-anchors Bret Baier, Megyn
Kelly and Chris Wallace. Onstage participants have yet to be confirmed, but Donald
Trump has announced he will take part,
despite his previous objections to Kelly in
her role as debate moderator. This debate
takes place two days after Super Tuesday
and closely precedes the Michigan primary
on March 8 and primaries in Ohio and
Florida on March 15.
10 p.m. on (HIST)
Vikings
Ragnar (Travis Fimmel) upbraids the captive Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard) for the heavy
price his rash actions have cost, but a
mysterious visitor urges Ragnar to show
“Mercy,” as this new episode is titled. Back
at the French court, intrigue prevails as
Rollo (Clive Standen) finds an unlikely ally
in Count Odo (Owen Roe), although he
still can make no headway with his contemptuous bride (Morgane Polanski). Bjorn
(Alexander Ludwig), meanwhile, confronts a
fierce opponent in the wilderness.

Turkish man pleads guilty in
$55 million cyberattacks case
NEW YORK (AP) — A Turkish
man who led three cyberattacks
against global financial institutions that caused more than $55
million in losses pleaded guilty
Tuesday, prosecutors said.
Ercan Findikoglu, 34, whose
online nicknames included
“Segate,”
‘’Predator,”
and
“Oreon,” entered the plea in
Brooklyn federal court.
Prosecutors said he used
cashing crews worldwide to
make fraudulent ATM withdrawals on a massive scale
across the globe. In a February
2011 operation, Findikoglu’s
cashing crews withdrew about
$10 million through 15,000
fraudulent ATM withdraws in at

18 countries, they said.
BICYCLES given to local nonprofit organization The Refuge by the Cleveland Police Department were least
The government said he
packed into the bed of a pickup truck to be taken away, repaired and given to people in need. The sheer hacked into computer systems
numbers required at least three trips. of three payment processing
companies. It said he and coconspirators accessed prepaid
debit card accounts, inflated
balances and removed their
withdrawal limits between 2011
and 2013.

In a February 2013 attack,

frees up space in our evidence
storage,” Cleveland Police Chief
Mark Gibson said. “A bicycle …
also can hopefully go to someone
in the community who can use
it.”
The department holds on to
any bicycles that are recovered
after having been abandoned or
found among stolen property for
a year, Gibson said. He explained
Tennessee state law then allows
the department to either surrender any unclaimed bikes to the
state or get rid of them locally.
Most of the time, he said, the
state directs the department to
dispose of or recycle the
unclaimed bicycles as it sees fit.
Gibson added the department
“doesn’t want to destroy them if
they can be used.”
“You feel kind of bad because
these were lost or stolen items
which never made it back to their
owners,” Gibson said. “Still, if we
can put them back into circulation and have them be used, it
feels a little better.”
Kelli Kyle, vice president of The
Refuge, said these bicycles have
the potential to help people put
in the work they need to change
their lives for the better.
The Refuge is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which helps
local individuals gain the skills
they need to overcome challenges
like poverty. Primarily working
with low-income clients in and
around its East Cleveland location, it offers everything from a
lab with computers available for
job searches to structured job
skills training courses to help
people find work.
Someone landing a new job is
always a cause for celebration,
but Kyle said this positive development has led to some transportation-related stress for some.
“We have so many people we
serve that don’t have transportation,” Kyle said. “Having a bicycle
could really help some of them.”
Unless they walk, those who
do not own cars or bicycles must
rely on the local public bus system, which may or may not align
with their work schedules.
However, having a bicycle can
help improve a person’s ability
travel to work — and be on time
— each day.
Kyle said the both having a job
and being able to show up and do
well on a consistent basis is a
winning formula which can
change a person’s life.
As police department personnel helped representatives of The
Refuge load the bicycles into the
backs of pickup trucks, it
became evident this donation
could potentially lead to many
more people having an extra
source of transportation.
Evidence technician Sandra
Oliver, who was carefully checking her clipboard to see which
bicycles had met the one-year
threshold for disposal, said she
estimated The Refuge would be
able to take close to 50 of them.
That number grew as department personnel continued to
sort, and Gibson said the organization was welcome to take all of
the ones that had been there for
more than a year.
Kyle said she would need to
take a good look at just how
many bicycles The Refuge would
be able to store, so the exact
number of bicycles which could
change hands is still unknown.
Still, the number of bicycles the
organization
collected
Wednesday filled a pickup truck
bed three times.
“We think this is going to be a
great blessing for these people,”
Kyle said.
While she did expect to see
bicycles for adults, there were
some children’s bicycles as well.
Kyle said those bicycles will likely
be given to parents so they can
experience the joy of surprising
their children with them.
The bicycles had been cloistered away in an outdoor storage
area on the police department’s
downtown property. Because
they had been exposed to the elements, some had begun to rust
and were not in ideal shape.
Still, Kyle said she expects
many of them can be repaired
without much trouble.
A friend of hers who has experience in bicycle repair told her
some may just need “some help
from an air pump and some WD40.” Oliver also pointed out the
ones which may be in poor shape
may still contain parts which can
be used for repairs.
Kyle thanked the police personnel for choosing to give The
Refuge the bicycles they were
looking to get rid of, calling it “a
win-win” for both parties.
“We’re glad we are able to find
some use for these bicycles
which have just been sitting
here,” Gibson said. “Again, we
hope it can help someone.”

Swartzel has been a music
teacher at Arnold Memorial
Elementary School for six years.
With 33 years of teaching experience, she was previously recognized by Yale University as a
Distinguished Music Educator in
2013, and was a quarterfinalist
for The Grammy Music Educator
Award in 2013 and 2014.
She has served as a writer on
the state committee to revise
standards for music education,
and the state committee to implement teacher evaluation tool for
music educators.
She has received 16 grants
totally $15,000 to develop the
music program at Arnold. A

Swartzel created and directed the
Elementary Honors Chorus which
impacts 125 students in
Cleveland City Schools each year,

From Page 1
Transportation
Driveway
Manual.
The study divides the corridor
into five sections and gives road
classifications for each section
based on the volume of traffic
and the degree to which the area
is urban or rural.
Ortman outlines recommendations for each section, with
urban areas having more access
and rural areas having more
restrictions on access. The section of the corridor that is U.S.
64 Bypass (South) was designated as a freeway in the study, and
the most restrictive access was
recommended.
“Even though there are some
driveways and crossroads, it
should only be accessed by interchanges,” Ortman said.
She encouraged the committee
to create guidelines restricting
future access to the corridor
without traffic signals. Creating
requirements for driveways to be
a greater distance apart in freeway areas was also suggested.
Any guidelines adopted would
apply to new construction or
redevelopment.
For safety in higher-speed corridors, a distance of 660 feet
apart for driveways in rural areas
and 330 feet apart for driveways
in more urban areas was suggested.
“Some of those commercial
developments have three driveways with 60 feet spacing in
between,” Ortman said.
She explained that the higher
the number of access point without signals and the closer they
are to each other, the greater the
chances of traffic accidents
occurring in that area.
“A lot of times they can be
accessed by one driveway or a
joint driveway,” Ortman said.
Exceptions to whatever guidelines are adopted could be given
if there is no other way to access
the site.
Committee member Terry
Caywood, a Bradley County commissioner, expressed concern at
using 660 feet as the requirement for space between driveways in rural areas. He used the
“We’ve got to find that
middle ground that will
work for us. Some of this
(Ortman’s
recommendations) may
work, some of it might
not. We need to … find
that perfect medium.”
— Stacy Morrison
example of a family farm being
divided among grown children
who each wanted to build a home
on the property.
Shared driveways were proposed as a way to address this.
Caywood said where he lives
there are four houses that share
one private drive to access the
main road. These private drives
are maintained by the property
owners.
“Most everyday guys don’t
have the money to build their
own road,” Caywood said.
Ortman said the numbers were
based on national standards and
were simply a recommendation.
“None of this is set in stone,”
Ortman said.
Stacy Morrison of the
Tennessee
Department
of
Transportation said the goal of
developing corridor management
guidelines was to decrease the
“conflict points” (points accessing
the corridor) in order to decrease
traffic incidents.
“Every time we have a family
that builds a home that builds
our tax base … we are also looking for ways to help taxpayers so
they can have a home,” Caywood
said.
He commented he felt the recommendation would be putting a
burden on the property owner,
but not the many other drivers
who use the road. Caywood said
the recommended guidelines
need to be fair to everyone who
uses the roadway.
MPO Director Greg Thomas
said there is often more than one
way to access a property, thus
many could be accessed from a
side road.
More detailed information on
each section may be collected, so
the committee can make the best
decision on spacing.
Committee member Doug
Berry,
Cleveland/Bradley
Chamber of Commerce vice president for economic development,
said it might be helpful if the
county planning department
looked at the lot sizes in rural
areas in anticipation of the committee determining a distance to
recommend.
“We’ve got to find that middle
ground that will work for us.
Some of this (Ortman’s recommendations) may work, some of
it might not. We need to … find
that perfect medium,” Morrison
said.
Joren Dunnavant of TDOT
said the committee needs to
“identify …what would make the
most sense for this community.”
A project to widen State Route
60 toward Hopewell, which has
been in discussion for years, has
been delayed due to federal funding issues. The project had been
proposed as a way to address
congestion in the area.
City Senior Planner Corey
Divel said this makes establishing corridor management guidelines important to addressing
current issues in the absence of
funding for widening the road.
Any guidelines drafted by the
committee will be recommendations to the Bradley County
Commission and Cleveland City
Council. Any recommendations
will have to meet the state standards for driveways, but state
standards for corridor management as a whole do not exist.
State Route 60 is one of two
pilot projects in Tennessee for
corridor management agreements. Local governments can
make the guidelines for driveway
access more restrictive than the
state guidelines.
TDOT‘s updated driveway
manual will be released March
27.
The management corridor
committee is expected to review
the study and then meet in the
summer to begin identifying
guidelines.

so I know how important a drill
like this is,” Foote said. “Like any
other drill, such as a fire drill, the
kids get a chance to practice and
that helps them to do what they

fashion.”
The drill was scheduled for 1:30

He said Third Street has been
considered a good location for

“It’s a state route for most of
the way, State Route 40, which
then switches over to Inman

truck route through there,”
Thomas said.
Thomas initially said he was
uncertain if there was enough
time to put together an application.
During a meeting of the executive board, Cleveland Mayor Tom
Rowland suggested the MPO go
ahead and apply. None of the
other board members objected.
City Manager Janice Casteel
suggested that the MPO submit
a project. That way, even if it was
not funded this year, the project
could be accelerated for consideration the following year.
Casteel asked if synchronizing

because it could be used to
address tractor-trailer freight
traffic.

Casteel said it would be good
to talk to local logistics compa-
nies to get their input on where
the problem areas for freight are
in the city.

Transportation said conversations with freight leaders were
also scheduled at the state level.
He commented it would be a
good idea on the local level as
well.

said part of the issue with tractor-trailer traffic was that some
drivers have not updated their
GPS devices and were trying to
take roads that are no longer
optimal for track traffic.
Morrison said TDOT had a
similar issue in another town, so
the road was modified and then
fleet dispatchers were notified of
the route change.

NATIONAL BRIEFS
Detectives: Fake teen doctor stole
$34,000 from patient
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP)
— A judge ordered a teenager
accused of being a fake doctor to
take a mental health exam after
new charges accusing him of
stealing over $34,000 from an 86year-old patient were filed.
Multiple media outlets report
Judge Joseph Marx ordered
Wednesday that 18-year-old
Malachi Love-Robinson could be
released provided he undergoes
the examination by Friday.
The Palm Beach County
Sheriff’s Office arrested LoveRobinson Tuesday, saying he
stole $34,504 from the woman to
pay auto loans and credit cards.
Love-Robinson made news last
month after he was charged with
impersonating
a
doctor.
Detectives say he opened an
office and examined patients.
He denies the charges, saying
he never said he was a medical
doctor. He claims to have a doctorate from the Universal Life
Church, which sells them online
for $29.95.
Attorney: VA nurse who drank
before operation has resigned
WILKES-BARRE, Pa. (AP) — A
registered nurse who acknowledged drinking four or five beers
in the hours before assisting an
operation at a veterans’ hospital
in Pennsylvania has resigned.
Kim Borland, the attorney representing Richard Pieri, acknowledged Wednesday that he
resigned. She wouldn’t comment
on criminal charges the nurse
faces for the Feb. 4 incident,
including reckless endangerment, driving under the influence
and public drunkenness.
Police say the 59-year-old
stumbled into the Wilkes-Barre
(WILKS’-ba-ree) VA Medical
Center 4 before the emergency
surgery.
Prosecutors say Pieri told
investigators he had forgotten he
was on call that night and had
been drinking at the Mohegan
Sun Pocono casino when he was
summoned for the emergency
operation.
Pieri faces a preliminary hearing on the charges on March 29.
City police take on school
officer video probe
BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore
police are investigating after a
school police officer was caught
on video hitting and kicking a
young man inside a city school.
City police spokesman T.J.
Smith said in a statement
released Wednesday that city
police will handle the criminal
investigation at school police acting chief Akil Hamm’s request.
The two forces are separate agencies.
City school officials said in a
statement that they are “vigorously investigating” the incident
Tuesday at REACH Partnership
School. Cellphone video shot by a
student shows a school police
officer slapping and kicking a
young man while another officer
stands by.
Officials have not identified the
officers, but Hamm says both are
on administrative leave with pay.
Hamm says the victim wasn’t a
student at the school, but attorney Lauren Geisser says he’s a
10th grader there.
Jury issue in case of deputy
who shot man with air rifle
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP)
— A potential conflict involving a
member of a grand jury is the
subject of a South Florida court
hearing in the manslaughter case
against a deputy who fatally shot
a man carrying an air rifle.
The defense attorney for suspended Broward Sheriff’s Office
Deputy Peter Peraza is seeking
details about a grand juror whose
daughter was arrested on drunken-driving charges before the
case was presented to the panel.
The question is whether the juror
had a conflict in the Peraza case.
A hearing is set for Thursday in
Broward Circuit Court.
Peraza faces up to 30 years in
prison if convicted in the July
2013 killing of 33-year-old
Jermaine McBean, who was carrying an unloaded air rifle. Peraza
has pleaded not guilty.
McBean’s family has filed a
wrongful death lawsuit.
Teacher resigns over nude
pictures taken from her cellphone
UNION, S.C. (AP) — Some
South Carolina high school students have started an online petition to bring back a teacher who
resigned after a student spread a
nude picture of her through text
messages and social media.
Thirty-three-year-old Union
County High School teacher
Leigh Anne Arthur tells news outlets she left her cellphone on her
desk Monday as she monitored a
hallway during a class change. A
16-year-old boy then took her
phone, and with his own phone
took pictures of nude images of
Arthur on her phone.
A group of students started an
online petition in support of
Arthur. Wednesday afternoon,
the petition had 1,300 signatures.
Superintendent
David
Eubanks says Arthur was in the
wrong because the phone was
unlocked. He says he’s unsure if
the student will face disciplinary
action.
Arthur says she forgives the
student, but she believes he
should be held responsible for his
actions.
Appeals court to hear arguments
in Freddie Gray case
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) —
Maryland’s highest court will
hear oral arguments in several
cases of officers charged in the
death of 25-year-old black man
in Baltimore police custody.
Attorneys Thursday will be representing five of the six officers
facing criminal charges in the
death of Freddie Gray, whose
neck was broken in the back of a
police transport van while handcuffed and in leg irons, but not
restrained by a seat belt.
The Maryland Court of Appeals
will determine whether Officer
William Porter, whose trial ended
in a hung jury in November, can
be compelled to testify against his
colleagues as he awaits retrial.
Baltimore Circuit Judge Barry
Williams initially ruled that
Porter must testify against two
other officers, but cannot be
forced to take the stand at the trials for three others.
Lawyers, judge to meet privately
on Kalamazoo shootings
KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) — A
judge is set to meet with lawyers
to lay out procedural steps in the
murder case against a southwestern Michigan man charged
with randomly killing six people.
The conference Thursday
comes a week before Jason
Dalton faces an important hearing to determine if there’s enough
evidence to send him to trial in
Kalamazoo County.
Prosecutor Jeff Getting says
the discussion with Dalton’s
lawyer and a judge won’t be open
to reporters. But he’s planning to
speak to the news media when it
ends.
The 45-year-old Dalton is
charged with murder and
attempted murder. Six people
were killed on Feb. 20 — four outside a restaurant and a father
and son at a car dealership. Two
people who survived are in fair
condition at a hospital.
Police horse throws officer
in Times Square
NEW YORK (AP) — A horse
with the New York Police
Department’s mounted unit galloped through Times Square after
being spooked by a loud noise
and throwing an officer from its
back.
It happened during the late
evening rush hour Wednesday on
48th Street near Broadway.
Police say the horse, named
Gunny, bolted down Sixth
Avenue to East 47th Street where
it turned into a parking garage
where the mounted unit keeps its
horses during breaks.
A cab driver told NBC New York
the horse sideswiped his vehicle
knocking off a side view mirror.
The officer was taken to a hospital for minor injuries.
No other injuries were reported.
Michigan prosecutor: Woman
let newborn die in garage
MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. (AP)
— A Detroit-area prosecuting
attorney says a woman let her
newborn die in a garage rather
than allow him to go into foster
care.
The allegation against Angela
Alexie came Wednesday during
opening arguments in her trial on
murder and child abuse charges
in Macomb County Circuit Court.
Authorities accuse the 24-yearold, who has three other children
in foster care, of giving birth in an
Eastpointe garage in December
2014 and leaving the boy whose
body was later discovered at a
nearby recycling center.
Assistant Prosecutor William
Cataldo says Alexie hid her pregnancy and considered the child a
“dirty little secret” and “a road
block to her social life.”
Defense attorney Steve Kaplan
counters Alexie has “cognitive
challenges.” He told jurors she
should be convicted of the lesser
charge of manslaughter.
Operator of fastest superhighway
in U.S. files for bankruptcy
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — The
company that built and manages
America’s fastest superhighway
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
protection from its creditors
Wednesday.
SH 130 Concession Co. filed its
bankruptcy petition in federal
court in Austin, Texas. It came
amid its lagging payments on the
$1.7 billion debt owed on the
project, including almost $1.3 billion in principal and more than
$400 million in interest, expenses
and fees, the Austin AmericanStatesman reported.
In its filing, the company said it
cannot make full payment on its
senior debt. The company
exhausted a $65 million reserve
account in 2014.
“The lingering effects of the
recession reduced traffic volumes
regionally during the project’s
early years and delayed development along the largely SH 130
corridor,” the company said in a
statement.
In 2014, the company said
traffic volumes were about 30
percent below projections used in
obtaining financing for the road.
“The filing will have no financial impact on the state of Texas,”
company CEO Alfonso Orol told
the newspaper. “It’s business as
usual for our customers, employees, vendors and surrounding
communities during these proceedings.”
Spanish builder Cintra owns
65 percent of the company, with
35 percent owned by San
Antonio-based
Zachry
Construction Co. Using its own
and borrowed money, the company built the 90-mile stretch of
superhighway from Mustang
Ridge, near Austin, to Seguin

arrest warrant had been sworn
out for her. Ramsey said the
woman’s husband was told the
family could accept a disorderly
conduct citation, pay a $1,000
fine, and police in turn would not
pursue felony state warrants
against the woman on the
charge.
Ramsey didn’t immediately
return email questions and other
details weren’t in his statement.
The arrests come after the FBI

the White Police Department and

Mississippi will defend lawsuit
over Confederate-themed flag
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) —
Mississippi’s attorney general
said Wednesday that he will
defend his state’s flag against a
lawsuit that seeks to remove its
Confederate battle emblem, even
though he thinks the flag hurts
the state and should change.
Jim Hood, the only Democrat
still holding statewide office in
Mississippi, said his opinion
about state laws won’t prevent
him from fulfilling his oath to
defend them.
“I think the Legislature should
take the ball and change the
flag,” Hood said at the state
Capitol. “It has an impact on us
economically and the spirit of our
state, our people. It’s time to
make a change in the flag.”
Carlos Moore, an attorney
from Grenada, Mississippi, filed
a federal lawsuit Monday that
said the Confederate X on the
flag puts him and other AfricanAmericans in danger. He cited
the slayings of nine black worshippers at a church last June in
Charleston, South Carolina. The
white suspect in that case had
previously posed for photos with
a rebel flag, which has a red field
with a blue X dotted by 13 white
stars.
The attack in Charleston
sparked widespread debate over
the public display of Confederate
symbols across the South.
Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant, a
Republican, called Moore’s lawsuit “frivolous” and said voters
should decide whether to
redesign the state flag that has
flown since 1894. In a statewide
election in 2001, Mississippi voters decided by a 2-to-1 margin to
keep the flag that has the rebel
emblem. The state’s population is
almost 38 percent black.
Hood said that in defending the
Mississippi flag in court, he will
rely on a ruling from a similar
case filed in the mid-1990s in
Georgia. A black resident of
Atlanta sued over the design of
Georgia’s flag, which then displayed the same Confederate battle emblem that’s still on the
Mississippi banner.
The Georgia lawsuit argued the
flag was racist because the
Confederate emblem was added
in 1956 to defy school desegregation rulings. U.S. District Judge
Orinda D. Evans ruled in
January 1996 that she would not
make Georgia stop flying its flag
because: “There simply is no evidence in the record indicating
that the flag itself results in discrimination against AfricanAmericans.”

Sheriff: Man taking selfies with
gun fatally shoots himself
CONCRETE, Wash. (AP) — A
43-year-old man has died after
authorities say he accidentally
shot himself in the face while taking selfies.
The Skagit Valley Herald

were photographing themselves
with the weapon on Sunday at a
residence when he shot himself.
Skagit County Sheriff’s Office
Patrol Chief Chad Clark says the
woman reported that she and the
man had taken photos with the
gun several times that day and
that the man had loaded and
unloaded bullets multiple times.
Clark says a bullet apparently

Police chief, officer arrested on
false imprisonment charges
WHITE, Ga. (AP) — A north
Georgia police chief and an officer
have been arrested and accused
of arresting people on fake
charges and then reducing the
charges to collect fines, authorities said Wednesday.
Police chief David King, 58, and
officer Blake Scheff, 26, of the
White Police Department were
charged Wednesday with false
imprisonment, theft by extortion
and violation of oath by a public
officer, Georgia Bureau of

Ramsey said that one woman
was arrested in 2012 on a charge
of felony deposit account fraud, a
crime Ramsey adds she didn’t
commit. According to Ramsey,
the woman had been told previously to accept a disorderly conduct citation, pay a $1,000 fine
and authorities then would not
pursue felony state charges.

Justices soon could hint at outcome in Texas abortion case
WASHINGTON (AP) — For a
clue on how the Supreme Court
may decide a major abortion case
it heard Wednesday, look to its
impending decision in a fight over
abortion clinics in Louisiana.
The justices may not decide the
high-profile case about regulation
of abortion clinics in Texas until
late June.
But an order could come any
day in the Louisiana case in
which clinics are asking the high
court to block enforcement of a
2014 law that requires doctors
who perform abortions to have
admitting privileges at nearby
hospitals. The law could leave the
state with just one clinic in New
Orleans, down from four, the clinics said.
The cases are at different stages
in the legal process, but they
involve similar laws and actions
by the same federal appeals court,
the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals in New Orleans.
A vote for the clinics in
Louisiana could mean that
Justice Anthony Kennedy, whose
vote is crucial to both sides, also
will be a decisive fifth vote in favor
of abortion clinics in Texas.
“Let’s say he knew he was going
to vote to overturn in Texas.
Presumably he would be a fifth
vote” for the clinics in Louisiana,
said Carrie Severino, chief counsel of the conservative Judicial
Crisis Network.
If the court is unwilling to intervene and instead allows the law to
continue being enforced, it could
mean that Kennedy is with the
three more conservative justices
in what could be a 4-4 tie in the
Texas case. That outcome would
allow the Texas law to take full
effect, but would leave the issue
unresolved nationally.
The justices are scheduled to
meet Friday when they will take a
preliminary vote on the Texas
abortion case. Texas says it is trying to protect women’s health in
rules that require doctors who
perform abortions to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals.
Additionally, the state law forces
clinics to meet hospital-like standards for outpatient surgery. The
rules would cut the number of
abortion clinics in the state by
three-fourths, abortion providers
say.
It was not clear from
Wednesday’s argument where
Kennedy stood. He expressed concern about the reach of the 2013
Texas law, but also asked questions of the clinics’ lawyer that
indicated he might support Texas
in at least part of the case that
involves both admitting privileges
and a requirement that abortions
be performed in facilities that
meet hospital-like surgery standards.
Louisiana’s law was struck
down by a trial judge, but the
appeals court said last week that
the law could be enforced as the
case makes its way through the
courts. Writing for a unanimous
three-judge panel, Judge Jennifer
Elrod rejected the clinics’ argument that the appeals court
should heed earlier Supreme
Court action preventing Texas
from fully implementing the regulations. The clinics contended
that the Supreme Court is likely
to side with the Texas clinics and
would reverse any action against
the Louisiana clinics. But Elrod
said the clinics “misinterpret both
the facts in our prior abortion
cases and the Supreme Court’s
rulings.”
The court’s process for dealing
with emergency appeals is
opaque. Orders are often issued
with no explanation, although
sometimes dissenting justices
make clear the essence of their
disagreement with the majority.
David Brown, staff attorney for
the Center for Reproductive
Rights, cautioned against reading
too much into the court’s vote in
the Louisiana case, even if the
two cases are being considered at
the same time.
“It’s on their minds that this is
not just a Texas issue. It has
impacted women in the region,”
said Brown, who is representing
the Louisiana clinics. The center
also represents the Texas clinics.
“But there are a lot of issues
the court has to consider other
than the merits on an emergency
application and they are being
asked to rule in a very rapid manner. So it’s difficult to conclude
anything,” he said.
The Texas clinics filed three
emergency applications with the
court over the clinic regulations
each time the appeals court
reversed a trial judge’s ruling
blocking the regulations. A divided court twice voted to keep the
surgery center standard on hold
until a final decision in the case.
The first time, the justices divided
5-4 in November 2013 to allow
the law’s admitting privileges
requirement to take effect.
Justice Stephen Breyer wrote
for the liberal justices that among
the reasons to keep the measure
from being enforced is that the
longer a “facility remains closed,
the less likely it is ever to reopen.”
Breyer also said at least four justices would want to rule on the
law’s constitutionality, the topic
of Wednesday’s Supreme Court
hearing.

Yearlong spacemen embrace
fresh, frigid air back on Earth
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) —
Ah, there’s nothing like a blast of
fresh, frigid air to welcome you
back to the planet after nearly a
year cooped up in space.
That’s the word from astronaut
Scott Kelly, NASA’s spaceendurance champ who returned
to bitterly cold Kazakhstan on
Wednesday, along with his roommate for the past year, Russian
cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko.
In a NASA interview before
heading home to Houston, where
he arrived early Thursday, Kelly
said it was “amazing” to feel the
cold air when the hatch of his
Soyuz capsule popped open after
touchdown.
“I don’t mean to say it’s not
fresh on the space station,” he
said, “but there’s nothing like
new cold air coming into the capsule.”
Both Kelly, 52, and Kornienko,
55, yearned for nature throughout their 340-day mission at the
International Space Station, a
dry run by NASA for eventual
trips to Mars.
“Just like Scott, I wanted to
see Earth and I wanted to smell
that fresh air. This is an unforgettable feeling,” Kornienko said.
It was the longest an American
ever lived in space, although
nothing new for the Russians.
The world record is 438 days, set
back in the mid-1990s at the former Mir space station. Even
before that, a pair of Soviet cosmonauts had racked up a full
one-year spaceflight.
“Congratulations on your
record,” former cosmonaut and
Kazak space agency chief Talgat
Musabayev said at a welcoming
ceremony. He couldn’t resist: “Of
course, it was already done 28
years ago.”
President Barack Obama
joined the chorus of praise pouring in.
“Welcome back to Earth,
@StationCDRKelly! Your year in
space is vital to the future of
American space travel. Hope
gravity isn’t a drag!” Obama said
via Twitter.
The White House said Obama
spoke with Kelly on Wednesday,
thanking him for his service and
for sharing his journey through
social media. Kelly posted hundreds of photos of Earth.
After landing, the latest oneyear space subjects quickly parted company, Kelly flying back to
Houston and Kornienko to Star
City, Russia, near Moscow. While
en route, Kelly tweeted a picture
of his first salad back on Earth,
noting it will be important to
grow fresh food during Mars
“I’d been there a long
time, so I looked
forward to leaving. But
at the same time, it’s a

expeditions, like his space station lettuce crop.
Kelly acknowledged it was bittersweet leaving the space station — his home since last
March, currently staffed by three
men until the arrival of three
more in two weeks.
“I’d been there a long time, so I
looked forward to leaving. But at
the same time, it’s a magnificent
place and I’m going to miss it,” he
said.
Neither will be saying goodbye
— in Russian, do svidaniya — to
medical tests anytime soon.
Minutes after emerging from
their capsule, they were whisked
in chairs to a medical tent where
they did their best to stand, walk,
jump, navigate obstacles —
everything an astronaut might
need to do immediately upon
arriving at Mars.
NASA aims to put astronauts
on the red planet in the 2030s,
but first wants to know how the
body — and mind — will fare
during the 2½-year expedition.
Kelly ranked physical isolation
aboard the 250-mile-high platform, from those he loved, as his
biggest challenge.
Kelly looked fit as he emerged
from the Soyuz capsule on the
remote steppes of central Asia,
pumping his fist and giving a
thumbs-up. He showed no signs
of slowing down a few hours later
as he waited to board the plane
for the long flight back to
Houston. He needed little if any
assistance in walking and said
there seemed to be little difference from his five-month station
stint five years ago.
The exams — along with blood,
saliva and urine collections —
will continue for weeks if not
months. In the case of Kelly and
his identical twin, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, the testing
could last a year if not longer.
The brothers served as guinea
pigs — one in weightlessness, the
other on the ground.
Kelly’s last tweet from orbit
Tuesday provided a cliffhanger:
“The journey isn’t over. Follow
me as I rediscover #Earth!”
The brothers were reunited at
Ellington Airport near Johnson
Space Center in Houston early
Thursday. The welcoming committee included Scott’s two
daughters, ages 21 and 12; his
girlfriend who’s been chronicling
his mission as a NASA public
affairs officer at Johnson; and
his sister-in-law, former Arizona
congresswoman
Gabrielle
Giffords, Mark’s wife.

on U.S. soil,” Scott Kelly told the
crowd. “I missed everyone very
much.”
Also joining in the celebration:
Vice President Joe Biden’s wife,
Jill, and NASA Administrator
Charles Bolden.
“I brought you some beer and
apple pie — nothing’s more
American than that,” Jill Biden
said.
As for his space legacy, Kelly
said he and Kornienko “were a
small part” in setting the stage
for Mars.
“Expanding our envelope and
our ability to operate in space is
something that’s going to take us
farther from this planet,” he
said.
He stressed that it took thousands working behind the scenes
to pull off this mission, noting:
“It’s really not about us.”
Maybe so, but their sacrifice
was duly noted by grateful wellwishers at NASA and elsewhere.
On this flight alone, the pair
traveled 144 million miles
through space — the average
distance between Earth and
neighbor Mars — and were
exposed to cosmic radiation.
They tackled 400 experiments,
some of them unpleasant. And
like other station residents, Kelly
downed recycled urine and sweat
— nearly 200 gallons over the
year.
Make no mistake, “a year’s a
long time,” according to Kelly. He
checked into the space station
last March and by the six-month
mark last September, “I felt like I
had been up there my whole
life.”
Six months is the typical
space station stint; that was the
mission length for Russian cosmonaut Sergey Volkov, who
piloted Kelly and Kornienko to a
safe Soyuz touchdown.
“I’m definitely encouraged on
our ability to go even longer,”
Kelly said. “I mean, even though
I looked forward to coming home
and there were things that I
missed, I felt like if it was for the
right reason, I clearly could have
stayed however long it took.”

Agency rules for brick makers —
that’s the Blocking Regulatory
Interference from Closing Kilns,
or BRICK Act — the House will
exit Washington by early afternoon for a week’s vacation.
“There’s not a single priority
issue,” said No. 2 House
Democrat Steny Hoyer of
Maryland, citing issues absent
from the floor such as renewal of
federal aviation programs, financial relief for Puerto Rico, aid to
Flint, Michigan as it grapples
with tainted drinking water and
funds to combat the Zika virus.
“That is a substantial dereliction
of duty.”
The light schedule is due in
part to a battle over spending
that has stalled the budget,
which GOP leaders had hoped to
consider this week. There is also
disagreement over a Federal
Aviation Administration reauthorization bill. Those measures
could bring more heft to the floor
schedule this spring, along with
upcoming legislation to combat
heroin and opioid abuse and
reform the criminal justice system.
Last year, GOP leaders filled
the floor with initiatives taking
on President Barack Obama.
“Last year there was an enormous amount of energy expended doing nothing, but it takes
effort to have shutdown votes or
defund Planned Parenthood,
knowing it’ll go nowhere. But I’ll
give credit to the Republican
leadership: They put energy into
getting nothing done,” said Rep.
Peter Welch, D-Vt. “This year,
there’s not even an effort to fake
it. We’re just not doing anything.”
Well, the House is in fact passing some legislation. It’s just that
most of it is not very important.
There was a bill to require the
White House to re-bundle information about the national debt.
On Monday, the House voted to
scrub outdated and offensive
terms like “negro” and “oriental”
from a 1976 statute.
On Tuesday, Majority Leader
Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., who
sets the floor schedule, praised
the Medicaid measure for stopping fraud and abuse, and Whip
Steve Scalise, R-La., said the
measure protects taxpayers.

Bradley mauls Lady Jets
again for Region 3 title
By JOE CANNON
Banner Assistant Sports Editor
COOKEVILLE — When it
comes to Region 3-AAA Girls’
championship games, Bradley
Central
has
Cumberland
County’s number, as the
Bearettes notched their sixth
such victory in Cookeville
Wednesday evening.
“We withstood their best shot.
We were the stronger team
tonight,” declared head coach
Jason Reuter after the 64-49
clawing of the Lady Jets to claim
the fifth region crown since he
took over the storied program
six years ago.
The state-ranked squads have
met three times this season,
with the No. 6 Bearettes winning by four points on their
home court last month to go
with the 15-point runaway last
night.
Eighth-ranked
Cumberland claimed a onepoint January victory in
Crossville, which was the last
time Bradley lost, 18 games ago.
The Black-and-Gold also own
region title game wins over the
Crossville crew in 2014 (76-72,
2 OT in Cookeville), 2012 (82-42
in Crossville) 2004 (50-29 at
Jim Smiddy Arena), 2001 (47-45
at Rhea County) and 1998 (6138 also at Rhea County).
Both teams advance to TSSAA
Sectional games Saturday with
Bradley (30-3) hosting No. 9
Stewarts Creek (24-8), which fell
to fourth-ranked Riverdale (284) by a 51-48 tally Wednesday
evening. Cumberland County
(24-5) will have to travel to
Murfreesboro to face Riverdale
for a shot at a state tournament
bid.
“I don’t know much about
Stewarts Creek, other than they
beat (No. 1) Blackman and
Riverdale in the same week during the season,” Coach Reuter
said of the newest Rutherford
County school, playing just its
third season. “I’ll get some video
of them and learn more before
Saturday.”
“It’s huge for us to win this
(region title) and be at home
Saturday night,” he added. “We
need all Bradley fans and former Bearettes to come out and
support us. We want a huge
crowd to cheer us on to a state
bid.”
After missing their first five
shots from the field Wednesday
evening, Cumberland County
came on like gangbusters, sinking six straight to get head
coach Radhika Miller dancing
up and down the sideline with a
20-11 advantage.
“Cumberland County came
out strong and had us scrambling,” declared Coach Reuter.
“They scored 20 quick points
and I had to call a timeout even
though there was just 1:29 to go
in the period.”
Trailing 21-13 at the first
period horn, Bradley fell behind
by double digits when Lady Jet
career-high scorer Mackenzie
Iles netted the opening basket of
the second frame.
The Black-and-Gold answered
with a 3-pointer by senior Katie
Brown, a driving jumper from
the lane by sophomore sensation Rhyne Howard and a fast
break bucket by junior Halle
Hughes in a 51-second span to
close the gap to three points.

AFTER FIVE years as head basketball coach of the Cleveland
Lady Raiders, Mindy Kiser announced Wednesday afternoon that
she was stepping down.
Kiser resigns from coaching
By SARALYN NORKUS
Banner Sports Writer
News broke Wednesday afternoon that Cleveland girls basketball head coach Mindy Kiser
is resigning after five years with
the program.
“Over the years, we have experienced the thrills of victory and
the agonies of defeat, but neither of these outcomes defined
us as a program. Our resiliency
in the face of adversity, our
determination in the classroom
and our relentless effort are
what you will recognize in
almost every one of the girls that
become young ladies during
their time as a Lady Raider,”
Kiser said.
“What an honor it was for
them to call me ‘Coach.’ I am
also extremely proud of the
coaching staff as they have
evolved into respected educators
and hardworking coaches that
care greatly about the young
ladies in our program.”
Kiser will remain at Cleveland
High School as a teacher and
assistant athletic director, with
a focus on academic intervention for student athletes and
athletic event operations.
“Mindy Kiser has spent the
past several years working tirelessly for our student athletes as
assistant athletic director and
girls basketball coach. I have
admired her leadership through
the adversity of closing the
[Raider] Dome and starting construction of Raider Arena. She
has a passion for her players
and the game of basketball, and
will continue to lead through
athletic administration,” said
Cleveland
High
Principal
Autumn O’Bryan via statement.
During her five years as the
Lady Raiders head coach, Kiser
had an overall record of 67-68
and was 30-29 in District 5-AAA
play.
In her first two seasons, Kiser
led the team to back-to-back
District 5-AAA tournament
championship games, where
they finished second after losing
to Bradley Central each time. In
that first season, Cleveland’s
postseason run was ended by
Cumberland County in the
regions. In the 2012-13 season,
the Lady Raiders lost to White
County in the region tournament.
The Lady Raiders finished
fourth in the district tournament for the 2013-14 season,
and then lost to the Lady Jets in
region play.
Their final Region 3-AAA tournament appearance was in the
2014-15 season. After finishing
third in the district, Cleveland
was once again defeated by
White County in the region tournament.
Kiser’s final season with the
Lady Raiders proved a difficult
one, as injuries depleted her
already young bench. Cleveland
finished the season with an
overall record of 2-23.
“The landscape of high school
athletics and the coaching profession is rapidly changing.
What is required and needed to
coach today is not quite what it
was just several short years ago.
It is a business that requires a
high level of commitment,

Bradley Central is looking for
revenge.
Walker Valley wants to continue a strong postseason run.
Local fans wanting to witness
the epic intracounty showdown
will have to drive 120 miles to
Cookeville for the Region 3-AAA
title showdown tonight.
The two local schools are just
13 miles apart and have developed a strong rivalry since the
opening of Walker Valley 15
years ago, with none of the
sports more competitive than
boys’ basketball.
The Bears (24-6) claimed the
District 5-AAA regular season
with a perfect 10-0 mark, while
the Mustangs (21-9) were second with a 7-4 league mark.
Both head coaches —
Bradley’s Chuck Clark and
Walker Valley’s Bob Williams —
were Bear assistant coaches
under the legendary Kent
Smith.
Both teams and coaches have
great respect for each other and
the games have been tight since
the Mustangs moved up to
Class AAA.
While Bradley holds a 24-11
overall record on the younger
program, the Mustangs have a
6-2 postseason edge, including
all half dozen games played on
neutral courts.
The Bears claimed regular
season wins this year of 63-57
and 63-60, but Walker Valley
took the District 5-AAA
Tournament title by a 71-62
margin.
“It’s always a tough game
when we play them,” Coach
Clark explained. “We know we
are going to get their best shot,
and we are going to give them
ours.”
“Bradley is a great program
and it’s always a battle when we
play,” echoed Coach Williams.
“They are coming off a big upset
of
second-ranked
White
County, and we know they’ll be
gunning to pay us back for the
district.”
The Bears knocked off previously unbeaten White County,
the District 6-AAA champ,
Tuesday evening by a 78-66
margin, while the Mustangs got
past
tournament
host
Cookeville 60-55 in the other
semifinal.
When the two local teams tip
it off at 7 this evening it will be
the first meeting between the
two in a region championship
game. Walker Valley won the
only other region tournament
meeting with the Bears by a 6765 tally in the 2014 semifinals
at East Hamilton.
The Mustangs are led by seniors Josh Jones and Kenny
Bunton, who along with teammates Kolten Gibson and Bryce
Nunnelly were named to the AllDistrict Team.

Flames split doubleheader with Bellarmine University
From Lee Sports Information
Thanks to the big bat of senior
Luke Toms the Lee baseball team
earned a doubleheader split with
visiting Bellarmine University on a
chilly Wednesday afternoon from
Olympic Field.
The Flames (7-8) will jump back
into Gulf South Conference play
on Saturday when they open up a
three-game set with West Georgia
at 2 p.m. Bellarmine is now 3-3 on
the year.
LEE 9, BU 1
Toms launched a three-run
homer to left field to help jump
start the Lee offense and lead the
Flames to a 9-1 victory over the
Knights in game two on
Wednesday.
After being shutout in the opener the Lee offense woke up with
five runs in the first inning and
three more in the second. Toms
finished 2 for 4 with four RBI
while Trent Hill tallied a double
and two singles to account for his
three base knocks.
Six Lee pitchers combined to
make the lead stick. Kyle Briner
started and worked two perfect
frames. Corbin Lamb (1-0) and
Gage Carpenter followed and each
tossed a scoreless inning. Michael
Ray gave up just one unearned
run while Dallas Bryan and Trent
Hill came in to work the final two
innings.
All totaled the Flames' staff
struck out seven and walked five
in the contest while allowing just
two base hits.
"We had to have
this win. As disappointed as I was in
game one I was proud
of the way we bounced
back in game two," said
head coach Mark Brew
after his club's seventh
win of the season.
"Luke Toms got us off to a great
start with the home run. We've got
alot of things to improve on and
get better at as we look to West
Georgia this weekend.
The Lee offense pounded out 13
hits and ran Bellarmine starter
Evan McNair (0-2) from the game
in the first frame. McNair lasted
just 2/3 innings and gave up five
hits and five runs.
Four Bellarmine pitchers saw
action on the mound. Yanchey
Prichett was roughed up for three
runs on four hits in his 2/3 inning
of work. Will Birch and John
Hakemoller combined to toss 2
2/3 scoreless innings before
Nolan May worked the sixth
inning and gave up a run on two
hits.
LEE 0, BU 4
Bellarmine starter Hunter
Spencer threw a complete game
(seven innings)
shutout
and
allowed just four
hits to lead the
Knights past the
Flames, 4-0 in game
one.
Ben Holland, currently leading
the NCAA Division II in home runs
(9) and slugging percentage
(1.154), lead Lee with a double
and single.
"He's got such a great commitment to approach and adjusting
to what the pitcher is doing," said
Brew when asked about his senior
first baseman. "Unfortunately for
us eventually teams are going to
start pitching around him so we
have to get some other guys in our
lineup going to make that decision
difficult."
Senior shortstop Toms added a
single and walked while Geremy
Walton singled to account for
Lee's only baserunners.
Spencer (2-0) fanned four and
yielded just one walk while keeping the Flames' offense off balance
throughout the contest.
Rob Gustitus (0-1) was tagged
with the loss for Lee. The right
hander gave up two runs on three
hits in his three innings on the
mound. Tyler Burcham was effective in relief and threw three
scoreless innings to go with three
strikeouts. Christian Bokich
worked the seventh inning and
allowed two runs on three hits.
The top of the lineup got things
going for the Knights. Leadoff hitter Jess Staples was 2 for 4 with
two runs scored. Two-hole hitter,
Griffin Neuer added three hits,
including a first inning triple that
jump started the Kentucky club
and finished with three RBI.

Despite the Cougars winning
the turnover battle 24-12, they

Cleveland State baseball comes up short
From CSCougars.com
The Cougars could not complete the comeback Wednesday
afternoon.
Cleveland State’s hardballers
lost against Gordon State
College 6-4 at Cougar Field.
"We left guys on base and
wasted at-bats with strikeouts," said head coach Mike
Policastro. "We need to continue to work in all phases to be a
better team."
The Highlanders jumped out
to an early 2-0 lead after scoring one run in each of the first
two innings.
Cleveland State (5-7) cut the
lead in half in the bottom of the
second. Freshman first baseman Sean McDermott led off
the inning with a double and
later scored on a single from
sophomore second baseman
Lee Gibson.
Gordon State (7-11) then
scored four unanswered runs,
one in the top of the third and
three in the top of the sixth
inning.
"Christian Amos pitched
himself in and out of trouble for
five innings," said Policastro.
"Parker Cochran and Matt
Roueche gave us a solid three
innings."
The Cougars put three on the
board in the bottom of the
sixth. Freshman third baseman
Billy Brand reached on an error
and later scored on a sacrifice
fly from sophomore right fielder
Hagen Wilkey. Wilkey's sacrifice fly was caught by the right
fielder on the warning track.
Freshman catcher Christian
Burnett doubled, driving in
Gibson and sophomore shortstop Blake Thomas, who each
singled earlier in the inning.
In the bottom of the eighth,
Gibson hit a leadoff double
then Wilkey walked. Despite
getting the tying runners on
base with no outs and at one
point loading the bases, the
Cougars could not plate a run
in the inning.
With the loss, Cleveland
State splits the season series
against Gordon State after winning a three-game series on
their field earlier in the season.
Conference play begins this
Friday when the Cougars take
the field again hosting
Volunteer State (6-5). First
pitch is scheduled for 2 p.m.

their Wednesday afternoon loss to Gordon State.
Forbes scores 33 pts, leads No. 2 Michigan State past Rutgers
PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — The
nation's top 3-point shooter had
one of those games that's going
in the record book.
Bryn Forbes scored a careerhigh 33 points, hitting a Big Ten
Conference record 11 3-pointers,
and No. 2 Michigan State woke
up in the second half to rout
Rutgers 97-66 on Wednesday
night, handing the Scarlet
Knights their 17th straight loss.
"It's something that means a
lot, kind of because I put in a lot
of work to try to do things like
that," Forbes said of the record.
"For the people to help me, it
means a lot. I just can't remember all the hours I put in. It's
kind of important to me."
Forbes came into the game,
hitting 50 percent of his longrange shots (92 of 184). The senior made 2 of his first 5 and then
hit 9 of 11 the rest of the way.
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo
said Forbes was incredible in
helping Michigan State (25-5,
12-5) win its fifth straight and
ninth in 10.
"The job he did, the shots he
made - the execution was unbelievable, but if you're going to
have to rely on getting 11 threes
- there's a reason it's a record,
because it doesn't happen very
often," Izzo said.
Forbes' 11th 3-pointer came
on a fadeaway and it broke the
single-game record of 10 set by
John Diebler of Ohio State
against Penn State in 2011.
"Bryn is a special person," said
Michigan State forward Matt
Costello, who added 10 points
and matched his career high
with 15 rebounds. "He is one of
the best shooters I have ever
played with in my life."
Eron Harris added 15 points
and Denzel Valentine 14 for the
Spartans, who made 16 3-pointers.
If Michigan State beats Ohio
State on Saturday in its regularseason finale it will earn a double bye in the conference's
upcoming tournament and the
No. 2 seed.
Corey Sanders, who was
returning from a four-game suspension, had 19 points for
Rutgers (6-23, 0-17). The Scarlet
Knights have now lost 32 consecutive conference games dating to last season.
Rutgers needs to beat
Minnesota, the second worst
team in the conference, to avoid
a winless season in the league.
"I don't particularly look at a
streak," said Scarlet Knights
coach Eddie Jordan said, who
refused to speculate about his
future. "I look at how we need to
get better each day. I know the
situation for Minnesota, it's
unfortunate for them, but we
want our kids to be ready for our
terrific game on Saturday."
For a half, Rutgers had many
wondering whether it was going
to pull off the greatest upset in
program history, topping the win
against No. 4 Wisconsin last season.
The Scarlet Knights shot 67
percent from the field, making
16 of 24 shots, with Sanders
leading the way with 15.
Only a 3-pointer by Forbes —
of course — with 8.4 seconds left
in the half gave Michigan State a
43-41 lead, and had many wondering what was going on with
the Spartans.
They answered the question in
the second half, outscoring
Rutgers 20-3 in less than five
minutes to take a 63-44 lead.
Forbes hit three 3-pointers in the
run and that was it.
"Any excuse you find is bad
because it's about to be tournament time around the corner,"
Valentine said of the poor first
half. "There is no excuse. We just
came out flat, didn't follow our
scouting reports and totally disrespected the game. That's what
you get."
If there was a lowlight in the
half for Rutgers, it was Valentine
dunking on a 5-on-none break
with 5:55 to go.
Earlier in the half, Spartans
coach Tom Izzo walked on the
court and screamed at Valentine
for something that miffed him.
TIP-INS
Michigan State: The Spartans
tied a school record, hitting 17
three-pointers in a 96-62 win
against Rutgers on Jan. 31.
Coming into this game, they
were leading the nation, making
43.3 percent from long range,
with Forbes leading the nation
individually at 50 percent.
Rutgers: After its hot shooting
first half, the Scarlet Knights
shot 8 of 28 in the second half in
being outscored 54-25.

Braves light up Jimenez, Orioles
SARASOTA, Fla. (AP) —
Ubaldo Jimenez allowed six
runs while retiring just one batter in the first inning as the
Baltimore Orioles lost to the
Atlanta Braves 11-4 on
Wednesday.
Jimenez, who won 12 games
to lead the team in 2015, gave
up three hits and walked three
before being lifted.
The Braves scored another
run off Odrisamer Despaigne in
the first and another in the second to take an 8-0 lead.
“He got his pitches in. We
were hoping to go get two out of
him. He just happened to get his
pitch count in in one inning —
actually a third of an inning,”
manager Buck Showalter said.
“The one I’m interested in is
his first start in Baltimore.
That’s when it starts.”
Atlanta rookie Mallex Smith
had four extra-base hits — two
triples in the first, a home run
in the fifth and a double in the
seventh.
The Orioles scored four runs
in the second off Aaron Blair,
who is competing for one of
Atlanta’s final starting spots.
Chris Davis hit a long home run
to center and Jonathan Schoop
had a two-run shot to left.
STARTING TIME
Braves: Blair pitched a perfect
first and allowed four runs in
the second.
“You want every inning to be
like the first inning,” Blair said.
He watched while 12 batters
came to the first and staked him
to a quick 7-0 lead.
“That was a long inning. I
think I got up two or three different times to stay stretched,”
he said.
Davis’ home run was hit far
beyond the center field fence.
“If I execute my pitch, that
doesn’t happen,” Blair said. “To
a guy with that kind of power,
that ends up a long, long way
away.”
Orioles: Jimenez didn’t feel
badly about his start even
though his line wasn’t very
good. “It doesn’t look pretty at
all, but I think I feel good
because my arm feels really
good. I was able to work on the
things I wanted to,” he said.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Braves: SS Dansby Swanson,
the overall No. 1 draft pick last
year, who was traded to Atlanta
by Arizona along with Blair and
OF Ender Inciarte for Shelby
Miller, played one day after
being ill. He was hitless in five
at-bats.
“It’s one of those one-day
things, and he’s fine. I checked
him today, and he’s good to go,”
manager Fredi Gonzalez said.
Orioles: OF Nolan Reimold
was the designated hitter to rest
his sore shoulder. Mark Trumbo
played right field.
“With the shoulder he had
last year, we’re taking it real
slow with him, but I want him to
get his at-bats. He’s throwing
and doing some things. I want to
get ahead of it. It’s an opportunity, and I want them both to
get at-bats today. One of them is
going to DH and one of them is
going to play right field,”
Showalter said.
Showalter said that RHP
Chris Tillman, who missed
Sunday’s intrasquad game with
a strain in his right hip flexor,
had a cortisone injection on
Tuesday and feels strong
enough to start next week.

again were unable to score from
the field in the game’s final 3:33
as the Bearettes rolled on a 9-1
rally to reach the 30-win mark
for the second time in Reuter’s
reign.
“It’s
never
over
with
Cumberland, because they can
shoot the 3-ball so well,” commented Coach Reuter. “I wasn’t
able to relax until the final two
minutes. I’m very proud of our
kids. After we settled into our
man-to-man defense, we were
able to stop them from scoring
for long periods of time.”
“This was a very intense
game,” proclaimed Howard, who
was
named
the
Region
Tournament Most Valuable
Player. “It was a tough game,
but we were able to do what we
needed to do.”
Howard sizzled the nylon for a
game-high 25 points, including
6-for-6 at the free-throw line,
plus added 13 rebounds for a
double-double. The District 5AAA Player of the Year also
copped five steals, blocked four
shots and dished off four
assists.
Gaither, an all-tournament
selection, went 6-for-6 from the
two-point area on her way to a
14-point, three rebound, twoassist performance.
Hughes, who also made the
all-tourney team, helped out
with a dozen points, handed out
six helps, snagged five caroms
and swiped a pair of thefts.
Junior Emma Kate Brown
pulled down seven ricochets and
netted five points, all from the
charity line.
As a team, Bradley went 19for-35 (54 percent) from in front
of the arc and 3-of-9 beyond it,
with 16 assists on 22 made field
goals. The Bearette “D” held Iles
to only nine points and the Lady
Jets to just 15-of-56 shooting
from the field.
Klaire Varney hit a trio of
treys on her way to a dozen
points, becoming the only
Cumberland scorer to reach
double figures.

field for the final 4 1/2 minutes
of the half while going on a 9-1
run, taking the lead back on a
baseline jumper by senior Julia
Gaither with a minute to go.
Trailing 29-27 at the intermission, the Lady Jets scored
the first five points of the second
half to regain the edge, but once
again the Bearette defense held
them to just one more field goal
the rest of the quarter while ripping the cords on a 13-2 streak
to take the lead for good.
Bradley capped the third
frame with the final half dozen
points for a 48-36 edge heading
down the stretch.

Cumberland opened the final
period with a 9-3 rally to pull

Kiser said in the official press

love dearly for 15 years, it is

According

Cleveland

Kiser’s dedication to the school

went unnoticed.
“Mindy Kiser works as hard as
any coach I have ever known.
She has worked tirelessly to give
her athletes instruction, mentoring, and opportunities to be
great competitors and young
ladies,” Phillips said in an official statement.
“Additionally, she gave our
school and community a program to be proud of, because of
the way that they have competed and battled with tremendous
effort, heart, and sportsmanship. I look forward to watching
her continue to help our school,
students, and coaches strive for
excellence.”

THUNDER 98
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The
Oklahoma City Thunder took the
court hours after the death of
part-owner Aubrey McClendon
and squandered a 22-point lead in
a loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
Chris Paul had 21 points and
13 assists for Los Angeles, and
DeAndre Jordan had 20 points
and 18 rebounds. The Clippers
ended the game with a stunning
26-5 run after trailing by 16 with
7:30 left. The Thunder had only
one field goal during that stretch.
It was the largest comeback victory of the season for the
Clippers, who reached the 40-win
mark for the fifth year in a row.
Kevin Durant scored 30 points
and Russell Westbrook had 24
points and 12 assists for
Oklahoma City in the first of three
meetings this month between the
Western Conference contenders.
McClendon, 56, was killed
slamming his sport utility vehicle
into a concrete bridge embankment in Oklahoma City shortly
after 9 a.m. local time. The crash
occurred one day after he was
indicted by a federal grand jury
for allegedly conspiring to rig bids
to buy oil and natural gas leases
in northwest Oklahoma while he
was CEO of Chesapeake Energy
Corp.
In a statement released
Tuesday after the indictment,
McClendon denied violating
antitrust laws and said he would
fight to prove his innocence and
clear his name.
It was the second deadly crash
connected to the Thunder organization in three weeks. On Feb. 10,
Ingrid Williams, the 44-year-old
wife of assistant coach Monty
Williams, was killed in a head-on
collision just outside Oklahoma
City.

‘Heart Strings and Bootstraps’ down Memory Lane
“Heart Strings and Bootstraps,” billed
as a country music showdown last week,
provided three nights of fun and music
at First Baptist Church. The event benefited the music ministry mission work of
the FBC.
I guess Sandra and I went mostly
because we knew so many of the cast.
Also, because the production was conceived and directed by Connie Gatlin, so
we knew it had to be first class. And boy
it was indeed.
When I read in the program that my
sister-in-law, Tammy Bentley, said she
grew up listening to “Tom’s Clock Show”
on WCLE, my mind went back to yester-
OUR CITY
Cleveland
Mayor
Tom
Rowland
year when in my other life I hosted that
live morning radio show.
As each performer came on stage, I
guess anyone sitting next to me wondered why I was able to sing the words
to each song. I must admit I felt like I
was, so to speak, “Back in the saddle
again.”
Connie had it right, picking the correct
person and musical style, for each song.
The cast member list showed clearly the
performers each had a long history of
music and drama performances.
Even Tammy, portraying Donna
Fargo, brought out memories of past
Country Music Association events when
many times Sandra and I and have
watched Donna sing in live performances.
Many songs in the program inspired
the audience to sing along, especially the
finale which included the “what we
believe” section. It featured old-time
hymns and the popular Lee Greenwood
tune, “God Bless the USA,” which
brought the audience to its feet.
Memories flooded my mind. I had to
decide whether I was playing the songs
on “Tom’s Clock Show” or watching the
WSM Grand Ole Opry. When I hear folks
performing the old songs, I look for
accurate portrayals and this cast was
right on. I missed my all-time favorites
Ray Price and Faron Young, but you
can’t get them all.
And the cross-section was great. I
know my friend Eddie Cartwright was
singing along with his favorite country
music singer, Willie Nelson, portrayed by
Joe “Joe Joe” Collins singing several of
the hits made famous by the “red-headed stranger.”
It’s difficult to mention every performer, but hats off to each and every
one of you — the cast, the backstage
workers, sound and lights, the musicians and all who had a part in this
great production. Cleveland is blessed to
the have the talent of Connie Gatlin “giving back” to her church and community.
It was a show that portrayed a lot of
spirit — so fitting in a church and The
City With Spirit.
As Bob Hope would say, “Thanks for
the memories.”

FAQs regarding the
replacement of Scalia
Q. Has the issue of Justice
Antonin Scalia’s replacement
on the Supreme Court turned
a mite political?
A. You could say that. You
could also say that flight simulation wind-tunnels are tough
on comb-overs.
Q. How long after the first
Italian U.S. Supreme Court
Justice’s death did it take to
get ugly?
A. Within minutes of the discovery of the body, Senate
Majority
Leader
Mitch
McConnell vowed to keep the
seat vacant until after the
November presidential election. It probably took longer for
a family of five to order dessert
at Applebee’s.
Q. Is he alone?
A. No, every Republican in
North America echoed his
sentiments, especially the
remaining GOP presidential
candidates who see this as a
big red flag to wave at supporters. And since unemployment is below 5 percent and
gas around $2 a gallon, they
can use all the issues they can
get.
Q. What about the
Democrats?
A. Same thing, only different. Both Bernie Sanders and
Hillary Clinton want President
Obama to immediately nominate someone they can use to
rally the base, preferably a
single-mother
lesbian
Hispanic with a limp and agoraphobia.
Q. So we’re playing hardball
here.
A. We sidled way past hardball in 2009. This is 9-inch
steel ball-bearing ball.
Q. What is the make-up of
the remaining court?
A. One justice appointed by
Reagan, one by George H.
Walker Bush, two by George
W. Bush, two by Clinton and
two by Obama. Four
Republicans
and
four
Democrats. Five are Roman
Catholics and three are
Jewish. Although most decisions will depend on which
side of the bed Anthony
Kennedy wakes up.
Q. What was McConnell’s
rationale?
A. To let the people decide
which way the court swings
with their choice of president.
Q. Didn’t the people already
decide when they voted for
Obama the last two elections?
A. When Democrats speak,
Mitch McConnell doesn’t hear
well.
Q. Does this mean a presidential term lasts only three
years?
A. Not only
that, once this
precedent is
set, the next
Senate could
embargo
midterm
years as well.
Then
the
Durst
months
of
May through
August could be off limits,
since Congress is in recess.
Eventually, a commanderin-chief might only allowed to
nominate a Supreme Court
replacement on a Wednesday
in the third week of September
of odd numbered years.
Q. Can the court function
with only eight members?
A. Yes. They’ve done it
before. In 1790 they started
out with six and each decision
required a two-thirds majority,
which today would make
agreeing on a lunch schedule
difficult.
Q. Isn’t Scalia the guy who
said, “The only good
Constitution is a dead
Constitution?”
A. You nailed it. The irony is
this strict originalist would be
appalled at his death being
used for political purposes.
Ain’t life odd?
Q. I’ll ask the questions. If
Republicans stymie another
Obama nominee, will it be
viewed as more obstructionism?
A. Hasn’t hurt them so far.
Of course a series of 4-4 ties
would focus attention on the
vacancy like blood on snow.
Q. Could Obama nominate
himself?
A. Yeah. That’s what
Republicans want. HIM shaping law in a lifetime appointment. That and scorpions
duct-taped to their underwear.
Q. Might this lead to a further breakdown in bipartisan
relations?
A. As my daddy used to say,
“Can’t kill what’s already
dead.”

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Thursday, March 3,
the 63rd day of 2016. There are
303 days left in the year.
Today’s
Highlights
in
History:
On March 3, 1991, motorist
Rodney King was severely beaten
by Los Angeles police officers in a
scene captured on amateur
video. Twenty-five people were
killed when a United Airlines
Boeing 737-200 crashed while
approaching

27th state.
In 1849, the U.S. Department
of the Interior was established.
In 1913, more than 5,000 suffragists
marched
down
Pennsylvania
Avenue
in
Washington, D.C., a day before
the presidential inauguration of
Woodrow Wilson.
In 1923, Time magazine,
founded by Briton Hadden and
Henry R. Luce, made its debut.
In 1931, “The Star-Spangled
Banner” became the national
anthem of the United States as
President Herbert Hoover signed
a congressional resolution.
In 1934, bank robber John
Dillinger escaped from the Lake
County Jail in Crown Point,
Indiana, along with another prisoner, Herbert Youngblood.
In 1945, the Allies fully
secured the Philippine capital of
Manila from Japanese forces
during World War II.
In 1959, the United States

Hamas after a bus bomb in
Jerusalem killed 19 people,
including the bomber, the third
such suicide attack in eight days.
Ten years ago: President
George W. Bush arrived in
Pakistan to meet with top officials, including President Gen.
Pervez Musharraf, to discuss the
war on terror. Former U.S. Rep.
Randy “Duke” Cunningham was

Mayor withdraws support
for the Pepco-Exelon deal
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
mayor of the nation’s capital withdrew her support Tuesday for a
proposed $6.8 billion merger of
power companies Pepco and
Exelon.
The Washington Post reported
that District of Columbia Mayor
Muriel Bowser said she could not
agree to new terms for the deal set
by the D.C. Public Service
Commission. She said her administration was set from the beginning on an affordable, reliable and
sustainable arrangement.
“We pulled everyone together to
negotiate an agreement that was a
great deal for D.C. residents,”
Bowser said in a statement
obtained by the newspaper. “The
PSC’s counterproposal guts much
needed protections against rate
increases for D.C. residents and
assistance for low-income D.C.
ratepayers. That is not a deal that
I can support.”
After the public service commission first rejected the merger
last year, saying it would not benefit ratepayers, Bowser’s administration had negotiated for the
companies to pay the District of
Columbia $78 million for its support for the merger from District,
Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey
and federal regulators. That
would have cushioned District
residents from rate increases for
four years, contained job guarantees and included investments in
renewable energy.
But District regulators rejected
the plan last week, saying it was
“not in the public interest.” They
also said it would exacerbate an
imbalance in which federal taxpayers and businesses subsidize
residential rates.
The public service commission
then said it would reconsider the
deal under new terms that
removed any guarantee to hold
down residential rates. That
prompted Bowser to withdraw her
support.
The proposed acquisition of
Pepco
Holdings
Inc.
of
Washington by Chicago-based
Exelon Corp. would create the
nation’s largest electric utility as
measured by the number of customers served. The plan has
undergone a nearly two-year
approval process.
Pepco continues to talk with
D.C. officials and other parties,
spokesman Vincent Morris said in
an email to the Post.
The commission said the nine
parties to the deal need to either
agree to its terms or unite around
another proposal by March 11.

President Barack Obama pushed

Dear Annie: I am a very loving
mother of two adult daughters.
“Jane” has a child with her ex
and another with her current
husband. “Cindy” is married with
one child and one on the way.
At first, things with Jane were
great. We helped them furnish
their house with all new appliances, and also helped financially when they asked. Three years
ago, we had a falling out and now
Jane doesn’t call, text, email,
nothing. When we see each other
in public, she is civil, but otherwise, treats me as if as if I were
dead. We are not allowed to see
our grandchildren, although our
ex-son-in-law allows us to see
the one grandchild when he has
visitation.
Cindy, who also receives
financial help when she asks,
lets me see my grandchild only
once a month for four hours. She
sometimes allows me to Skype,
but no more than once a week, if
I’m lucky. When she had a miscarriage a few years ago, I tried
my very best to console her, but
she wouldn’t let me near her for
two weeks. Others were allowed
to be there, but not her own
mother. She won’t let me talk to
her about her current pregnancy.
I want to be a part of their
lives, but we can’t get past this
silence. I have offered to pay for
counseling, but they refuse. I
have asked, begged and pleaded
for one-on-one time, to no avail.
What hurts the most is that I
don’t even know why they are
angry with me. Any advice would
be so gratefully appreciated. — A
Loving, Crushed Mother
Dear Mother: Your daughters
may not be angry. They may be
trying to create some space
between your life and theirs, and
don’t know how to do it in a more
loving fashion. Or their husbands may have objected to your
presence. And if your daughters
are close, they may be feeding on
each other’s grievances.
It will do you no good to keep
pounding at this. Back off. You
also can stop loaning them
money if you choose. You don’t
owe it to them and it obviously
doesn’t influence their level of
affection. Enjoy the time you do
get to spend with the grandchildren, and fill your hours with
other activities that bring you
pleasure. Counseling for yourself
may help you accept this, and we
hope your daughters will come to
appreciate you again soon.

Romney calls Trump ‘phony’
He is urging Republicans to shun him
WASHINGTON (AP) — Former
Republican presidential nominee
Mitt Romney charged into the
increasingly divisive 2016 GOP
White
House
sweepstakes
Thursday with a harsh takedown
of front-runner Donald Trump,
calling him a “phony” and
exhorting fellow Republicans to
shun him for the good of the
country and party.
“His promises are as worthless
as a degree from Trump
University,” Romney said in a
speech readied for delivery to a
University of Utah audience.
In turning up the rhetoric,
Romney cast his lot with a growing
chorus
of
anxious
Republican leaders — people
many Trump supporters view as
establishment figures — in trying to slow the New York real
estate mogul’s momentum.
“Here’s what I know: Donald
Trump is a phony, a fraud,”
Romney said in his talk, set for
delivery later Thursday.
Trump, in turn, disparaged
Romney in a series of tweets: “I
am not a Mitt Romney, who
doesn’t know how to win,”
‘’Romney, who ran one of the
worst races in presidential history, is working with the establishment to bury a big ‘R’ win!” and
Romney is “not a good messenger” to be telling Republicans
how to get elected.
Romney has been chipping
away at Trump in recent days,
but the speech Thursday was
certain to be his most forceful
statement yet. Trump has
responded to Romney by saying
the former Massachusetts governor was a failed candidate in his
own right.
Panicked GOP leaders say
they still have options for preventing the billionaire from winning the GOP nomination — just
not many good ones.
Romney also declares that a
Trump nomination at the party’s
convention in Cleveland in July
would enable Democrat Hillary
Clinton to win the presidency,
according to excerpts of his
speech obtained by The
Associated Press.
He charged that Trump “has

Republican presidential nominee, speaks during the Republican
National Committee’s winter meeting aboard the USS Midway
Museum in San Diego. Romney charged into the increasingly divisive 2016 GOP White House sweepstakes Thursday with a harsh

neither the temperament nor the
judgment to be president.”
In a phone-in interview
Thursday with “Good Morning
America,” Trump scoffed at
Romney’s charges and declared
that “I’ve brought millions and
millions of people ... into the
Republican Party.”
“The Republican establishment is going to give it all back,”
he added.
Romney’s involvement comes
as party elites pore over complicated delegate math, outlining
hazy scenarios for a contested
convention and even flirting with
the long-shot prospect of a third
party option.
The 2012 Republican nominee’s speech marks his most
aggressive step into the 2016
contest to date, but it was
unclear what impact his words
would have with voters deeply
frustrated by their party’s leaders.
Trump, meanwhile, was set-
ting his sights on the general
election. His campaign reached
out to House Speaker Paul
Ryan’s office to arrange a conversation between the two men,
and urged Republican leaders to
view his candidacy as a chance
to expand the party.
Trump padded his lead with
victories in seven Super Tuesday
contests, with Texas Sen. Ted
Cruz claiming three states and
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio picking up his first victory of the
2016 race.
Despite Trump’s strong night,
he was not yet on track to claim
the nomination before the
party’s national gathering in
July, according to an Associated
Press delegate count. He has
won 46 percent of the delegates
awarded so far, and he would
have to increase that to 51 percent in the remaining primaries.
GOP strategists cast March 15
as the last opportunity to stop
Trump through the normal path
of winning states and collecting
delegates. A win for Rubio in his
home state of Florida would raise
questions
about
Trump’s
strength, as could a win for
Kasich, Ohio’s governor, on his
home turf.
The candidates have a highprofile opportunity to make their
case to voters in Thursday
night’s prime-time debate.
Retired neurosurgeon Ben
Carson all but ended his bid
Wednesday, saying he would
skip the debate and declaring he
did “not see a political path forward.”
The GOP mayhem contrasted
sharply with a clearer picture on
the Democratic side, where
Hillary Clinton was drawing
broad support from voters and
her party’s leaders. Rival Sen.
Bernie Sanders vowed to keep
up the fight, though his path to
the nomination has become
exceedingly narrow.
Romney argues that Trump’s
“domestic policies would lead to
recession. His foreign policies
would make America and the
world less safe,” Romney says.
“And his personal qualities
would mean that America would
cease to be a shining city on a
hill.”
The Associated Press has
asked Republican governors and
senators if they would support
Trump if he becomes the party’s
nominee. Of the 59 respondents,
slightly fewer than half could not
commit to backing him in
November.
One long-shot idea rumbling
through power corridors in
Washington was the prospect of
a late third-party candidate to
represent more mainstream conservatives. Former Texas Gov.
Rick Perry has been approached
by “a mixture of people” about
being part of a third-party bid,
according to Jeff Miller, who
managed Perry’s failed GOP
presidential campaign. But
Miller said Perry found the idea
“ludicrous.”
A more likely, though still
extraordinarily unusual, scenario being discussed is a contested convention.
MAPUTO, Mozambique (AP) —
An American who discovered an
aircraft part in Mozambique that
may be from missing Malaysia
Airlines Flight 370 said Thursday
that he initially thought it was
from a much smaller plane.
Blaine Gibson, who has been
searching the region’s beaches
for the debris, said in an interview with The Associated Press
that a boat operator who took
him to a sandbank named
Paluma called him over after seeing a piece of debris with “NO
STEP” written on it.
“It was so light,” Gibson said.
He said the discovery happened after he decided to go
“somewhere exposed to the
ocean” on the last day of a trip to
the Mozambican coastal town of
Vilankulo.
“At first, all I found were usual
beach detritus — flip flops, cigarette lighters. Then ‘Junior’ called
me over,” said Gibson, using the
nickname of the boat operator.
The location of the debris
turned up in a spot that matches
investigators’ theories about
where wreckage from the plane
would have ended up, according
to Australian officials.
The plane is believed to have
crashed somewhere in a remote
stretch of the southern Indian
Ocean far off Australia’s west
coast and about 6,000 kilometers
(3,700 miles) to the east of
Mozambique. But authorities
have long predicted that any
debris from the plane that isn’t
on the ocean floor would eventually be carried by currents to the
east coast of Africa.
Gibson, from Seattle, said the
piece of debris that he discovered
is in the hands of civil aviation
authorities in Mozambique, and
that he expects it to be transferred to their Australian counterparts.
“It’s important to keep it in
perspective,” Gibson said. “This
is about the families of the 239
victims, who haven’t seen their
relatives for two years now.”
Photos of the debris appear to
show the fixed leading edge of the
right-hand tail section of a
Boeing 777, said a U.S. official,
who spoke on condition of
anonymity because he wasn’t
authorized to speak publicly.
Flight 370 is the only known
missing 777.
Australian Transport Minister
Darren Chester said Thursday
the location of the debris in
Mozambique matches investigators’ drift modeling and would
therefore confirm that search
crews are looking in the right
part of the Indian Ocean for the
main underwater wreckage.
Malaysian Transport Minister
Liow Tiong Lai also said the location of the debris lines up with
investigators’ predictions.
People who have handled the
part, called a horizontal stabilizer, say it appears to be made of
fiberglass composite on the outside, with aluminum honeycombing on the inside, the U.S. official
said.
The Australian Transport
Safety Bureau, which is running
the search for the plane in
remote waters off Australia’s west
coast, said the part is expected to
be transported to Australia for
examination.
Malaysian
representatives
from the nation’s Civil Aviation
department
and
Malaysia
Airlines were heading to
Mozambique to discuss the find,
Liow said.

Viewer’s Guide: GOP debate about Trump vs. everyone else
WASHINGTON (AP) — And
then there were four.
Ben Carson’s departure from
the GOP presidential race
means the quartet of remaining
Republicans on the debate stage
Thursday night get more time
for attacks as Donald Trump
treads a path to the GOP nomination and his three rivals try to
trip him up. Cheered on by
many Republican leaders, Ted
Cruz, Marco Rubio and John
Kasich are racing the primary
clock to March 15, likely their
last chance to stop Trump in a
series of winner-take-all contests.
Some things to watch
Thursday night as the candidates meet at 9 p.m. EST for the
Fox News Channel debate in
Detroit:
—HE WHO WAS NOT NAMED
Love him or loathe him,
Trump has taught the poohbahs
of the Republican Party what a
power grab really is — and he’s
done it by winning over large
swaths of the GOP’s own core
supporters
far
from
Washington. His wobbling over
whether to disavow the support
of former Ku Klux Klan leader
David Duke finally gave the
Republican leaders of Congress
a way to go after the billionaire
publicly — without uttering
Trump’s name. Trump responded by saying House Speaker
Paul Ryan would have to get
along with a President Trump or
pay some sort of “big price.” On
the eve of the debate, Ryan’s
office confirmed that Trump’s
campaign had contacted the
speaker’s staff in a first sign of
outreach. Notably, Trump has
started talking about unifying
the GOP. Look for Trump to be
asked about the existential rift
in the party and how he expects
to govern.
—RUBIO, RUDE?
TRUMP, TOO?
The Florida senator who once
insisted on staying above the
scuffling has leapt right into it,
emulating Trump’s schoolyardtaunting style.
At campaign events in the
past week, Rubio made sometimes crude jokes about everything from Trump’s tan to the
size of his hands — he even suggested that the billionaire wet
his pants at the last debate.
Look for whether a newly confident Rubio, emboldened by his
first primary win in Minnesota
Tuesday, keeps it up or takes a
more statesmanlike approach.
And what to expect from
Trump? “I can’t act overly presidential because I’m going to
have people attacking from
every side. A very good man,
Ben Carson’s not there anymore, so now we’re going to
have more time for the fighting,”
he said. “When people are hitting you from different angles,
from all different angles, unfortunately you have to hit back. I
would have a very, very presidential demeanor when I win,
but until such time, you have to
hit back,” he told NBC on
Thursday.
—CRUZ’S STAND
Thanks to Rubio’s win
Tuesday, Cruz can no longer say
he’s the only Republican who
has shown he can beat Trump.
But he won three states on
Super Tuesday — Alaska,
Oklahoma and his home state of
Texas. And the delegate math
shows that Cruz is emerging as
the candidate who might stop
Trump. Look for some confidence from Cruz, because on
Super Tuesday alone he came

TheSe undATed PhoToS provided by Professional Sports
Authenticator shows one of seven Ty Cobb baseball cards — front
and back — that were found crumpled paper bag in a dilapidated
house. Card experts in Southern California say they have verified the
legitimacy, and seven-figure value, of the seven identical Ty Cobb
cards from the printing period of 1909 to 1911.
Cache of century-old Ty
Cobb baseball cards found
LOS ANGELES (AP) — From a
crumpled paper bag in a dilapidated house came a baseballcard find of a lifetime. Seven of
them actually.
Card experts in Southern
California said Wednesday that
they have verified the legitimacy
— and seven-figure total value —
of seven identical Ty Cobb cards
from the printing period of 1909
to 1911. Before the recent find,
there were only about 15 known
to still exist.
Joe Orlando, the president of
Professional Sports Authenticator
in Newport Beach, California,
who verified the find, said it is
“spectacular” and “miraculous” to
have come across such a cache.
“I am not sure if any other
baseball card find is more
remarkable than this new discovery,” Orlando said in a statement.
The family who discovered the
cards in a neglected paper bag at
the run-down house of a
deceased great-grandfather has
asked to remain anonymous.
Publicist Donn Pearlman, who
helped announce the finding, said
only that they are from a southern state and that the cards were
first taken to a dealer in Myrtle
Beach, South Carolina
That dealer, Rick Snyder of
MINT State Inc., said his initial
reaction after getting a voicemail
from the family was “absolute
skepticism.”
“I doubted they were authentic
because finding seven of these
cards at one place at one time
seemed almost impossible,”
Snyder said. But after examining
photos and then finally seeing the
cards themselves a week later, he
became convinced.
Orlando said he was also dubious at first. But after his office
and an outside expert examined
the cards, he became a believer.
The cards with the famed
Detroit Tigers slugger come from
a lot known as T206, the group
most prized by collectors that also
includes the Honus Wagner card,
arguably the most famous sports
card ever.
They say on the back “TY
COBB — KING OF THE SMOKING TOBACCO WORLD” in green
ink.
The cards’ value is sure to shift
now that there are so many more
in existence, and an exact figure
is difficult to pin down. But
Orlando said the total worth of
the whole cache should exceed $1
million. It’s not yet clear what the
family who found them intends to
do with them.
On a scale of 1-10, 10 being
mint condition, the cards range
from 3.5 to 4.5, which is high for
cards that are more than a century old.
“This is one of the greatest discoveries in the history of our
hobby,” Orlando said.
Video shows robotic dog ‘Spot’
grab attention of real canine
WALTHAM, Mass. (AP) — A
video that captures a small dog’s
ferocious battle with a fourlegged robot in a Massachusetts
parking lot has more than one
million views on YouTube.
The 160-pound robotic dog,
called “Spot,” is the latest creation from Google’s Boston
Dynamics. The company has
gained recognition for developing all-terrain robots for the
U.S. military.
The machine towers over Fido,
its furry counterpart, but eventually gives in to the canine’s

Ride the sky on a 70-story
glass slide coming to LA
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Thrillseekers looking to take their fear
of heights to a new level can come
to downtown Los Angeles this
summer and careen down a clear
glass slide atop the tallest building west of the Mississippi.
The “Skyslide” is scheduled to
begin sending urban adventurers
down the relatively brief ride
1,000 feet above the ground in
June. It will span 45 feet from the
70th to the 69th floor of the U.S.
Bank Tower downtown.
Nothing but 1¼-inch glass
separates riders from the ground,
promising to provide both a thrill
and quite the view for anyone
willing to open their eyes along
the way.
On a clear day, the 72-story
tower provides panoramic views
that extend to Catalina Island 22
miles off the Pacific Coast and
over
the
Santa
Monica
Mountains to the city’s sprawling
San Fernando Valley.
“There will be nothing like it in
the U.S.,” said Lucy Rumantir,
head of U.S. operations for the
building owner OUE Limited of
Singapore.
And that is just the reason for
building a giant slide in the sky,
Rumantir said.
“When you do something new
in LA you’ve got to be creative,”
she said, adding there are
already plenty of things to see
here. But the building owners’
thinking goes that a wild slide

“not likely.”

You’re not sold?
Dale Earnhardt Jr., pitting here during the Atlanta race, said he likes the feel of his stock car with less downforce. GETTY IMAGES/BRIAN LAWDERMILK
GOODYEAR - THE OFFICIAL TIRE OF NASCAR
Nothing in auto racing is “settled
science,” particularly when it comes
to downforce, which can (and probably will) eventually be outsmarted
by some engineer at one of the bigger
teams. Also, for what it’s worth, don’t
get accustomed to the drivers being
happy with this slip-and-slide downforce
package.

The drivers asked for it
and got it and loved it. We’re
talking about the lowerdownforce package that made
the stock cars slip and slide
around Atlanta Motor Speedway. “We were sliding around
and driving the hell out of the
car,” Dale Earnhardt Jr. said. “I
had a blast.”
Earnhardt and other drivers said the less downforce
produced racing like they
had in the 1980s and 1990s.
Brad Keselowski took it back
a decade earlier. “That race
felt like I was in 1975,” he said.
“That was kind of awesome. I
should grow my sideburns out
after that one.”
The Atlanta race featured
two drivers with the last name
Earnhardt. Dale Earnhardt
Jr. finished second, while his
26-year-old nephew Jeffrey
Earnhardt, son of Dale’s halfbrother Kerry, finished where
he started in 38th place, 15
laps off from the leaders.

NASCAR
Why the buzz-kill?
1. Great package
Just pointing out the inevitable. Eventually, some team will develop a distinct
advantage, the others will complain,
and further tweaks will come. Also,
though all the drivers will say they enjoy
tougher conditions, about half of them
don’t mean it. In that respect, they’re
like pro golfers.

NASCAR made the cars less comfortable to drive, which in theory should
separate the contenders from the
pretenders. And first time out with this
year’s unruly cars, a six-time champion
wins. That proves a point, I guess, but
let’s wait this one out a little longer.

YOUR
Encouraged by downforce
reviews from Atlanta?
Opinion on Stewart-Haas to
Ford?
GODSPEAK: First, nothing like
this shocks me anymore.
Second, Ford is the big
winner here.
KEN’S CALL: Nothing personal.
As Hyman Roth said, “This is
the business we’ve chosen.”
Fewer than 40 cars an issue?
GODSPEAK: It’s just a number.
Now there’s room for that
long awaited Kelly-Willis
Racing Hudson Hornet entry.
KEN’S CALL: At first, yes, it’s
an issue, but I think we’ll
get used to it. Evolution,
evolution.
NASCAR
FEUD OF THE WEEK
Neither Kyle Busch nor
older brother Kurt Busch
competed at their home track
of Las Vegas Motor Speedway
last season. Kyle, 30, was
healing up from an injury suffered at Daytona, while Kurt,
37, was suspended pending
the outcome of a legal battle.
Kyle has the family’s only victory there, back in 2009. Kurt
has 14 starts and one top-five
finish.
2. Rookie battle
The NASCAR Rookie of the
Year battle looks like it will
be a season-long dogfight
between Chase Elliott, who
drives the No. 24 Chevrolet,
and Ryan Blaney, who wheels
the No. 21 Ford. They are
side-by-side in the overall
points standings, with Elliott
and Blaney tied for 21st place
after two rounds. It should
be an interesting sideshow to
track.
Kurt Busch enjoys his pole-winning moment at Atlanta, which came at
the expense of younger brother Kyle Busch, whose speed was disallowed after his Toyota failed post-qualifying inspection. GETTY IMAGES/
MATT HAZLETT
3. Biffle-approved
Greg Biffle, the veteran
driver of the No. 16 Roush
Fenway Ford, said he will
welcome Stewart-Haas Racing
with open arms in 2017. SHR
is leaving Chevy to join Ford.
“I think it’s gonna be good,”
he said. “There’s potentially some working alliance
between the organizations.
Who knows yet?”

DARK HORSE: Aric
Almirola
DON’T BE SURPRISED
IF: The Busch brothers
turn their home turf
of Las Vegas into a
one-on-one match.
RYAN BLANEY VS. ARIC ALMIROLA: Almirola’s No. 43 Ford got into the back of
Blaney’s No. 21 Ford on the last restart,
dropping Blaney to 25th on the final rundown. “Kind of stinks,” Blaney said.
GODWIN KELLY’S TAKE: Almirola got the
worst of it because his car, sponsored
by Smithfield Foods, known for its quality pork products, caught on fire after
the stock cars made contact.

Bobby Labonte still own uniforms and occasionally
return to the cockpit.

can't.” - Riley Mull

— Is the best sub.
“Mrs. Wooten is a good substitute when Mrs. Mull
is out. She is funny.” — Jacey Hughes
“Jaylene Wooten is very special because of all she
does for the school. She works with these kids with
such patience and kindness and respect! It is a pleasure to know her.”

always happy to see you!”

Oak Grove Elementary is privileged
to have Pat Auberry as a very valuable
volunteer. “Nana Pat,”as we know her,
has been volunteering at OGE for
about five years.
After some years of retirement from
Pathway Press, she came to us when
her grandson was in kindergarten and
now we can’t get along without her.
She does everything from making
copies to assisting in the coordination
of the parent volunteer program.
Nana Pat says that she had no idea
how much work teachers had to do
before she started volunteering here.
She feels the Lord has led her to OGE
and her mission is to lighten the
teachers’ load.
She explains that OGE is her safe
and happy place where she is needed,
loved, and trusted by all. That is why
we love ‘Nana Pat’.
“Nana Pat is nice and does stuff for
us and she loves us.” – Callie Shields
“Nana Pat does our folders for us so
we have extra time to do stuff in class.
She sharpens our pencils.” — Evan
Stephens
“We love Nana Pat!”
“Nana Pat is the coolest Nana we
know. She is always smiling, calls us
all “her sweeties”, and she dances and
cheers in the hallway. She is loving
and kind and works so hard. Oak
Grove is a better place because of
Nana Pat!”
— Love, Mrs. Hall’s second-grade
“Nana Pat is a blessing to everyone
she meets.”
Nana Pat:
— Gets our folders ready for us
— Helps us
— Works hard for us
— Gives us hugs & kisses
— Is so nice and always smiles at us
Here are a few things my students
said about Nana Pat
"I love Nana Pat because she files
“Nana Pat”
Pat Aubury
our work to send home" — Maddie
Guire
“She sharpens our pencils and
that's why I love her” — Jacob Lawson
“She gives us hugs and she's nice”
— Emily Bruce
“Nana is the best because she puts
things in our folders” — Kassidy
Middleton
“We love her because she returns
our pencils” — Cameron Ellison
“I love you Nana and you're the best
person ever” — Madison Goins
“Nana is special because she loves
us” — Carlie Smith
“She is really nice because she's old
and she loves us” — Cooper Still
“Nana is special because she gives
us hugs” — Luke Leamon
"We love Nana Pat!"
"She gives is sharp pencils, and we
LOVE sharp pencils!"
"Whenever we need a copy, she is
always happy to do it."

The Parent Night was planned and organized by
Andrea Moore and Erin Holland, Stuart ESL Teachers,
- Stuart Principal Richelle Shelton, Parent Coordinator
Joanne Swafford and Christy Duncan, ESL
Coordinator for Cleveland City Schools.
ESL students enjoyed pizza with their parents and

Brenda and Belin Solorzano and mother
receive information about Erlanger Children's Hospital
mobile care services, adult English classes offered in
the community, technology tips concerning school
learning, suggestions on helping children succeed in
school, and opportunities available at Stuart for further
enrichment.

Students of the
Month demonstrate
character trait of
‘Love’ at Stuart
These students were chosen as students of the month by their teachers
for best demonstrating the character
trait of love.
The character trait for February went
along with the school wide theme of the
month- kindness. Every February
Stuart celebrates kindness month by
having students and teachers alike recognize random acts of kindness done
throughout the school.
These acts, along with the
student/teacher name, are written on
paper paw prints (for Stuart bulldogs)
and posted on the walls of the school
for all to see.
The class who has turned in the
most acts of kindness for the week also
wins the “kindness trophy” to keep in
the classroom.
Each month students are chosen as
students of the month who best exemplify the specific character trait for that
month.
They are treated to a character education breakfast with the principal and
school counselor and receive certificates, pencils, and a T-shirt.
StudentS of the month chosen for representing the character trait of love are, from left front, Karina Stoyanova, Jay Jennings, Gabby
Ron, Ava Bracero and Izayah McCowan; middle row, Payton Giannasio, Riley Knowell, Eli Torres, Walker Cagle, Lizette Reynoso Suarez,
Isaac Soto, Tylie Kahrs, Anna Bates and Brylee Cisco; and back, Analyce Bradford, Kevin Osorio, Haley Williams, Eva Lipscomb, Kambryn

White House to tackle chronic absenteeism
WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is
hoping that caring mentors will help stop students from skipping school.
The Obama administration announced plans
Friday to connect more than 1 million students
who miss major amounts of school time with
mentors in hopes of turning that around.
Officials say that as many as 7.5 million children miss a month or more of school each
year, putting them at risk of falling behind and
dropping out. Pairing mentors with some of
those students can stop children from risking
their futures, said Broderick Johnson, chairman
of the My Brother’s Keeper Task Force.
Part of the My Brother’s Keeper program, the
Success Mentors Initiative will launch in 10
cities: Austin, Boston, Columbus, Denver,
Miami-Dade, New York City, Philadelphia,
Providence, San Antonio and Seattle.
“Missing school means missing out on the
only chance of success that most children
have,” Boston Mayor Marty Walsh said.
The MBK Success Mentors Initiative, a partnership between the Department of Education
and Johns Hopkins University, will pair trained
adults with children to meet with them three
times a week. It will start with 250,000 students
sixth through ninth grade in school districts
with low incomes and high absenteeism levels
and expand to kindergarten through 12th grade
in five years.
Chronic absenteeism is defined by the
administration as missing at least 10 percent,
or about 18 days, of days in a school year.
“By the time you get to high school and

Principal: Jennifer Huskins
the faCulty and
staff at Waterville
Community Elementary
School were each given
a special rose by the
principal and office staff
in honor of Valentine’s
Day. Each rose is made
of wood and was handmade by the
Pennsylvania Amish
community. Along with
each rose was a card
which read, “Just
remember, with each
student, far within their
heart, mind, and soul,
that there’s a seed that,
with your love and guidance, they can become
a rose.”
Waterville Community elementary
SChool created a bulletin board which represents, “Teaching the Whole Child — Mind,
Heart, and Body.” The board hangs inside the
entrance of the Bradley County Schools Central
Office. Students contributed by writing about
respect, safety, health and love on paper hearts
which are displayed on the board. Words at the
bottom read, “Fill Their Box Everyday!”
