“He entered the store
dressed in all black with a ski
mask, black coat with hood
and black pants,” said Green.
Police are looking for a
heavy-set male Caucasian
around 5-feet, 6-inches tall.
The suspect fits the description of a male who robbed

“It appears to be the same

Basket fund
needs more
donations
The spirit of giving this
Christmas season is alive and
well in the Alcorn County area.
Donations are still needed
this year for the 19th Annual
Corinth Rotary Club/Daily
Corinthian Christmas Basket
Fund.
A $25,000 fundraising goal
was set so 1,000 food baskets
could be given to local families
on Saturday, Dec. 6.
Baskets were given away
based upon faith the goal will
be reached.
So far, $16,014 has been
raised, meaning $8,986 still
needs to be raised to make the
goal. Donations will be accepted through the end of the year.
Contributions to the Christmas Basket Fund can be made
“in honor of” or “in memory of”
a special person or persons. The
tribute will be published in the
Daily Corinthian.
Donations can be brought by
the newspaper office 8 a.m. to
5 p.m. Monday through Friday
or mailed to: Daily Corinthian,
Attn.: Christmas Basket Fund,
P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS

New Year’s Eve turned somber following a two vehicle
wreck in southern Alcorn County Wednesday night.
The wreck occurred around
5:15 p.m. at U.S. Highway 45
and MS 356, known as the
“Rienzi crossing.”
Two Air Evac units were
called to the scene. North and
south bound lanes of Highway
45 were blocked for more than
40 minutes following the wreck.
A 31-year-old woman was
transported by air ambulance
to North Mississippi Medical

Rose Parade
features local
‘super hero’

Dancing their way to victory, the Alcorn Central High
School Dance Team claimed
top honors at the Mississippi
High School Athletic Association State Dance Competition.
Held in Jackson at the Coliseum on Friday, Dec. 12, the
team competed against 14
other teams for the 1A-6A HipHop State Championship title.
Judged on their execution
of hip-hop movement, skill,
strength and control as well
as the synchronization/uniformity of timing and rhythm,
spacing and communication
and projection of connecting
and engaging the audience,
the team received high marks
throughout their performance.
The routine itself was judged
on the choreography of creative hip-hop movements,
level changes and group work.
The originality of music, staging, seamless transitions from
one formation to another, difficulty of movement and skills
such as tricks, floor work and
lifts were also evaluated.
In addition, the group had to
achieve an overall impression
combining crowd appeal and
involvement, music, choreography and costume.
According to the team’s
coach, the ACHS Dance Team

Local “super hero” Andrew
Loyd will be honored today at
the 126th Tournament of Roses
Parade in Pasadena, Calf.
The 11-year-old youngster,
who was shot to death by his
mentally ill father inside their
Farmington apartment in 2012,
was selected in 2014 as a floragraph honoree by the Donate
Life organization because of his
organ donations made shortly
after his death.
A portrait of Andrew, created
with floral materials, will appear on the Donate Life float,
which is scheduled to appear in
the second hour of the parade
today. Andrew’s portrait will
appear alon side 71 other floragraphs of special donors from
across the country.
The parade will be televised
live from 10 a.m. until 12 p.m.
on numerous networks, including WMC-NBC (Comcast:

The ACHS Dance Team gathers for state competition.
DANCE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
“Our first win of the
Hip-Hop state title began
with the team in 2010.
We won consecutively for
three years in a row. Last
year, we came in runnerup, which was still an
honor, but not something
we were going to settle
for,” she said. “I’ve always
tried to instill in my girls
the importance of pushing themselves to their
limits and never giving
up. They are always better and can do more than
what they think. Sometimes it just takes a little
pushing and motivation
to bring it out of them.”
Hearts pumping with
excitement and adrenaline, the team waited anxiously to learn their score.
“As soon as the announcer called out Alcorn
Central for first place, the
weight that had been sitting on all our shoulders
was finally lifted and all
the 3 to 9 p.m. practices
were worth it,” said CoCaptain Katie Smith.
“Being on this dance
team has been a blessing for me. I’m so proud
to say I danced with my
friends and made memories I will never forget. I’m
even more proud to say
that I’m an Alcorn Central
dancer.”
Inspired by the team’s
self-discipline and commitment to their afternoon practices, Whitaker
said it was unbelievable
to see the depth of dedication shown by each dancer at such a young age.
“They are amazing and
such good athletes who
put 200 percent into
each and every practice
and performance. I feel
honored, privileged and
blessed to have the opportunity to be their
coach,” she said. “I’m so
excited to have been able
to share the love and pas-
sion I have for dance with
them and hope they learn
something from each season.”
An emotional experience, team Captain Lindsey Miller described the
feelings she felt during
the competition.
“It was the happiest and
saddest I’ve ever felt,” she
said. “This team has been
such a big part of my life
for the past four years, it
breaks my heart to realize
it’s all over.”
Her co-captain, Alissa
Ann Williams, echoed the
sentiment.
“All I could do was cry
because I have never been
more proud of myself or
my teammates than in
that moment,” said the
ACHS senior. “Knowing
this competition was my
last, everything was intensified. All the nerves,
the desire to win, and the
will to give it everything I
had and leave nothing behind were more present
than ever before. I know
without a doubt that this
competition was one of
the most memorable experiences I’ve ever had.”
Reflecting on a season
full of triumphs and challenges, Coach Whitaker
feels blessed and privileged to have been a part
of all four wins and to
have worked with the students she calls her “baby
girls.”
“From all of the sweat,
blood, tears, pulled muscles and bruises, to our
motivational talks and
team circles of held hands
and prayers, we had one
goal and it was to bring
home what was ours: the
state title for best HipHop dance team in Mississippi, which previously
belonged to our school for
three years ... and that’s
exactly what we did. We
brought it back home and
collected our fourth state
title,” she said.

Chelmowski collected $746 to be evenly divided between the Oasis Medical Center and Jardin de Eden
(Garden of Eden) Orphanage in Ecuador.
“I think it is absolutely wonderful that a young person would have it in their heart to touch lives in such
a wonderful way,” said Martha Jobe, director of Oasis
Medical Center, of the $373 check presented to the
center on Tuesday.
Jobe said the money will be “plugged directly into the
medical services” offered to women at the center.
Participating restaurants paid a $25 entry fee to see
who had the most spirit in the contest. The winner was
presented a plaque and cash prize.
“It was a lot of time and hard work, but now that it is
done, it was all worth it,” said Chelmowski.
The 13-year-old has plans to incorporate a team to
help with the contest next year.
“I hope it gets bigger and bigger every year,” she said.

Today in
History
Nation/World
Americans support menu labeling
BY MARY CLARE JALONICK
Associated Press
Today is Thursday, Jan.
1, the first day of 2015.
There are 364 days left
in the year.
Today’s Highlight
in History:
On Jan. 1, 1975, a
jury in Washington found
Nixon administration officials John N. Mitchell,
H.R. Haldeman, John
D. Ehrlichman and Robert C. Mardian guilty of
charges related to the
Watergate cover-up; a
fifth defendant, Kenneth Parkinson, was
acquitted, and Mardian’s
conviction for conspiracy
was later overturned on
appeal.
On this date:
In 1863, President
Abraham Lincoln issued
the Emancipation Proclamation, declaring that
slaves in rebel states
shall be “forever free.”
In 1935, The Associated Press inaugurated
Wirephoto, the first
successful service for
transmitting photographs
by wire to member newspapers.
In 1953, country
singer Hank Williams Sr.,
29, was discovered dead
in the back seat of his
car during a stop in Oak
Hill, West Virginia, while
he was being driven to a
concert in Canton, Ohio.
In 1959, Fidel Castro
and his revolutionaries
overthrew Cuban leader
Fulgencio Batista, who
fled to the Dominican
Republic.
In 1979, the United
States and China held
celebrations in Washington and Beijing to mark
the establishment of
diplomatic relations between the two countries.
In 1984, the breakup
of AT&T took place as
the telecommunications
giant was divested of its
22 Bell System companies under terms of an
antitrust agreement.
In 1985, the music cable channel VH-1 made its
debut with a video of Marvin Gaye performing “The
Star-Spangled Banner.”
In 1995, the World
Trade Organization
(WTO) came into being,
replacing the General
Agreement on Tariffs
and Trade (GATT). Sweden, Finland and Austria
joined the European
Union. Fernando Henrique Cardoso took office
as Brazil’s president.
Five years ago:
A suicide bomber
detonated a truckload of
explosives on a volleyball
field in northwest Pakistan, killing at least 97
people.
One year ago:
The nation’s first legal
recreational pot shops
opened in Colorado at 8
a.m. Mountain Standard
Time.
WASHINGTON — More than
half of Americans say they already have enough information
at restaurants to decide whether
they are making a healthy purchase. But they want even more.
According to an Associated
Press-GfK poll conducted in December, most Americans favor
labeling calories on menus in
fast food and sit-down restaurants. Most favor labels for prepared foods in the grocery store,
too.
The poll was conducted a little
more than a week after the Food
and Drug Administration announced new rules that will require restaurants and other establishments that sell prepared
foods and have 20 or more locations to post the calorie content
of food “clearly and conspicuously” on their menus, menu
boards and displays. Companies
will have until November 2015
to comply.
Majority supports labeling
A majority of Americans — 56
percent — favor requiring fast
food restaurants to post calorie
amounts on menus, while 54
percent favor the calorie postings at sit-down restaurants and
52 percent favor the labels at
prepared food counters at grocery stores.
Slightly fewer approved of requiring the calorie postings in
other dining locations. Fortynine percent of Americans supported posting calories on coffee shop menus and 44 percent
approved of the postings on
vending machines and at movie
theaters. Forty-three percent favored calorie postings in amusement parks. All of those establishments will be required to
post calorie amounts under the
new FDA rules.
Only about 1 in 10 Americans
oppose labeling requirements
at each of these places. The remainder said they neither favor
nor oppose each requirement.
Women, Democrats
most supportive
Women are more likely than
men to say they favor labeling
requirements at restaurants and
prepared-food counters, though
a majority of men support the
labeling at fast food restaurants
and around half support it at
sit-down restaurants. Collegeeducated respondents are more
likely than those without a college education to favor labeling
requirements at all of the establishments.
The support appears to be
relatively bipartisan. Democrats
are significantly more likely to
support the calorie postings
than independents or Republicans, but a slim majority of Republicans still support calorie
postings at restaurants.
People care about
calories, sugars fats
The idea behind the rules is
that people may pass on that bacon double cheeseburger if they
know it has hundreds of calories
— and, in turn, restaurants may
make their foods healthier to
keep calorie counts down.
The menus and menu boards
will tell diners that a 2,000-calorie diet is used as the basis for
daily nutrition, noting that individual calorie needs may vary.
Additional nutritional information beyond calories, including
sodium, fats, sugar and other
items, must be available upon
request.
When they’re judging whether a food item is a healthy choice
or not, 55 percent of Americans
say how many calories it contains is very or extremely important to them. Same with sodium levels.
Sugar and fat were slightly
more important to health-conscious diners — 61 percent said
sugar was very or extremely
important when deciding on
healthy purchases and 59 percent said the same about the
amount of fat.
Only 36 percent of Americans
said they feel the level of vitamins and minerals is extremely
or very important when making healthy purchases, and even
fewer — 23 percent, less than a
quarter — said the same about
whether an item is organic.

10 People To Watch In 2015
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In the year
that will pass before the 2016
campaign for president formally
kicks off with the votes in the
Iowa Caucus, any number of
candidates, donors, political operatives — and people who have
nothing to do with American
politics — will shape the race for
the White House. Here’s a look
at 10 people (OK, 12 people) who
will be worth watching in the
next year.
1. Elizabeth Warren,
Potential rival
The populist senator from
Massachusetts is, at the dawn of
2015, the only person who appears able to mount a competitive challenge to Hillary Rodham
Clinton in the race for the Democratic nomination. The architect
of President Barack Obama’s
consumer financial protection
agency, Warren would be able
to quickly raise millions from an
already enthusiastic following.
She has repeatedly insisted she
“is not running for president,”
but her consistent use of the
present tense has left some liberals begging her to get into the
race.
2. Steve Robertson,
Backroom ally
The bespectacled chairman of
the Republican Party of Kentucky
will have a busy 2015 — thanks in
no small measure to the political
aspirations of the state’s junior
senator, Rand Paul. As Robertson works to elect a Republican
governor for only the second time
in 44 years, he will have to figure
out whether to help Paul run for
president and re-election to the
U.S. Senate in 2016 — something
nominally barred by Kentucky
law. Options include moving up
the state’s primary or changing
the party’s rules, but no matter what path Paul’s team takes,
Robertson will be the man selling
it to the public.
3. Paul Fishman,
Prosecutor
As U.S. attorney for New Jer-
Stop the Harassment & Keep your Property
sey, Paul Fishman is leading the
federal criminal investigation
into a scheme to create traffic
jams on a bridge that links New
Jersey with Manhattan — a political scandal that still hangs
over the political ambitions of
Gov. Chris Christie. There is
no evidence linking Christie directly to the effort to tie up traffic on the bridge, but even if he
is formally cleared by Fishman,
the federal prosecutor could announce a string of indictments
against the governor’s former
staffers, aides and appointees
just as he’s announcing his candidacy for president.
4. John Podesta,
Steady influence
A senior adviser to President
Barack Obama, Podesta is a
trusted Democratic counselor
and environmental policymaker who served as Bill Clinton’s
White House chief of staff. Podesta has said he doesn’t intend
to leave the White House until
Obama’s mid-January State of
the Union address and could
serve as Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman. If he joins the
campaign, Podesta would provide stability to an organization
that was plagued by infighting in
2007 and 2008 and could help
Clinton navigate the party’s liberal wing and the final term of
Obama’s administration.
5. Ron Paul and Rafael
Cruz, Proud fathers
Ted Cruz and Rand Paul are no
strangers to stirring up trouble
in the Senate, but both are tame
compared to their fathers. Rafael Cruz, a Dallas-area pastor,
says God prefers conservative
candidates and that Obama is
a “Marxist” who should be sent
“back to Kenya.” Ron Paul, a
physician and former congressman from Texas, opposed almost every facet of government
as overreach during his time in
office and two Quixotic campaigns for president, winning
the nickname “Dr. No.” Both
fathers are sure to become focal
points of scrutiny should their
sons enter the race for president.
6. Sheldon Adelson,
Republican megadonor
One of the Republican Party’s
most powerful donors, the casino magnate has the money
to single-handedly bankroll a
candidate’s presidential prospects — which he did in 2012
for former House Speaker Newt
Gingrich. Several White House
prospects have already traveled
to Las Vegas to court Adelson,
the chairman and CEO of the Las
Vegas Sands Corp. and one of
the world’s richest individuals.
His advisors suggest Adelson is
in no hurry to pick his 2016 favorite, but look for foreign policy
— and Israel in particular — to
weigh heavily on his ultimate
decision. Adelson is a staunch
supporter of the Jewish state.
7. Raul Castro,
Communist dictator
Obama’s recent decision to restore America’s diplomatic relations with Cuba thrust the issue
— and the island nation’s communist leader, Raul Castro —
into the 2016 contest. The move
was vigorously condemned by
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, a
Cuban-American eyeing a White
House bid who slammed Obama
for a deal that “conceded everything and gained little.” Should
Castro fail to take steps in the
next year toward democracy
and improving human rights,
he would vindicate Rubio’s criticisms and highlight his developing rift over foreign policy with
Paul, one of the few Republicans
to say Obama’s move on Cuba
was the right one.
8. Bill Clinton, Would-be
first gentleman
The former president is sure to
emerge as the ultimate surrogate
if his wife seeks the White House
a second time. He was among
the most popular campaigners
for Democratic candidates during the 2014 elections, and his
speech at the 2012 Democratic
National Convention helped sell
Obama’s economic agenda and
first-term record. The ex-president has moved past the 2008

campaign, when he testily noted
after Obama’s South Carolina
primary win over his wife that
Jesse Jackson had also won the
state twice. Yet he remains a
wild card..
9. Columba Bush,
Would-be first lady
Perhaps no one has more influence on former Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush’s presidential aspirations than his wife of 40 years,
Columba Bush. Long uncomfortable with media attention, a Bush
presidential bid would thrust her
into the national spotlight whether she likes it or not. It would also
shine a light on their three children, one of whom has struggled
with substance abuse. And as the
debate over immigration rages
inside the party, Columba Bush’s
background — she is a native of
Mexico — could play prominently in her husband’s presidential
campaign.
10. Joni Ernst
and Terry Branstad,
Iowa connections
Terry Branstad has won election as Iowa governor six times,
more than any other state chief
executive in U.S. history. Joni
Ernst was the breakout star of
the 2014 midterm elections, a
little-known state lawmaker who
parlayed rural roots and a military background — along with a
punchy television ad about castrating hogs — into a win for U.S.
senate. The pair will be sought
after by every Republican seeking to kick off their campaign for
president with a win in the firstto-vote Iowa Caucus. After two
rounds of caucuses in which GOP
voters backed a candidate who
ultimately failed to win the nomination, Branstad orchestrated
a takeover of the Iowa GOP in
2014, attempting to broaden the
base and nudge disciples of former Texas Rep. Ron Paul out of
party leadership. Ernst says she’ll
say neutral in 2016, but voters
are sure to look for any signals
from their new senator as to how
she’ll caucus on the cold Iowa
night that officially starts the race
to Election Day.

Corinth, Miss.
Are facts obsolete?
Some of us, who are old
enough to remember the old
television police series “Dragnet,” may remember Sgt. Joe
Friday saying, “Just the facts,
ma’am.” But that would be
completely out of place today.
Thomas Facts are becoming obsolete,
Sowell as recent events have demonstrated.
Columnist
What matters today is how
well you can concoct a story
that fits people’s preconceptions and arouses their emotions. Politicians like New York
mayor Bill de Blasio, professional demagogues like Al Sharpton and innumerable irresponsible people in the media have shown
that they have great talent in promoting a
lynch mob atmosphere toward the police.
Grand juries that examine hard facts live
in a different world from mobs who listen
to rhetoric and politicians who cater to the
mobs.
During the controversy over the death of
Trayvon Martin, for example, a member of
the Congressional Black Caucus said that
George Zimmerman had tracked Trayvon
Martin down and shot him like a dog. The
fact is that Zimmerman did not have to track
down Trayvon Martin, who was sitting on top
of him, punching him till his face was bloody.
After the death of Michael Brown, members of the Congressional Black Caucus stood
up in Congress, with their hands held up, saying “don’t shoot.” Although there were some
who claimed that this is what Michael Brown
said and did, there were other witnesses – all
black, by the way – who said that Brown was
charging the policeman when he was shot.
What was decisive was not what either
set of witnesses said, but what the autopsy
revealed, an autopsy involving three sets of
forensic experts, including one representing
Michael Brown’s family. Witnesses can lie
but the physical facts don’t.
The death of Eric Garner has likewise
spawned stories having little relationship to
facts. The story is that Garner died because a
chokehold stopped his breathing. But Garner
did not die with a policeman choking him.
He died later, in an ambulance where his
heart stopped. No doubt the stress of his capture did not do him any good, and he might
well still be alive if he had not resisted arrest.
But that was his choice.
Despite people who say blithely that the police need more “training,” there is no “kinder
and gentler” way to capture a 350-pound
man, who is capable of inflicting grievous
harm, and perhaps even death, on any of
his would-be captors. The magic word “unarmed” means nothing in practice, however
much the word may hype emotions.
If you are killed by an unarmed man, you
are just as dead as if you had been annihilated by a nuclear bomb. But you don’t even
know who is armed or unarmed until after it
is all over, and you can search him.
Incidentally, did you know that, during
this same period when riots, looting and arson have been raging, a black policeman in
Alabama shot and killed an unarmed white
teenager – and was cleared by a grand jury?
Probably not, if you depend on the mainstream media for your news.
The media do not merely ignore facts, they
suppress facts. Millions of people saw the
videotape of the beating of Rodney King. But
they saw only a fraction of that tape because
the media left out the rest, which showed
Rodney King – another huge man – resisting
arrest and refusing to be handcuffed, so that
he could be searched.
Television viewers did not get to see the
other black men in the same vehicle that Rodney King was driving recklessly. Those other
black men were not beaten. And the grand
jury got to see the whole video, after which
they acquitted the police – and the media
then published the jurors’ home addresses.
Such media retribution against people
they don’t like is part of a growing lynch mob
mentality. The black witnesses in Missouri,
whose testimony confirmed what the police
officer said, expressed fears for their own
safety for telling what the physical evidence
showed was the truth.
Is this what we want? Grand juries responding to mobs and the media, instead of
to the facts?

Prayer for today
Almighty God, lead me in the search for
life. Teach me what is important and what is
unimportant; what is false, and what is true.
Remove the hindrances that keep me from
the worthiest deeds, and grant that I may
have the peace that comes with surrender of
self to thy will. Amen.
A verse to share
“Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus
is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth
the Father and the Son.” 1 John 2:22
Books you might not have heard about
Blockbuster books like
“Wild” and “Gone Girl” get
so much attention that we
forget other authors are out
there busting their blocks
trying to sell a few stories
written without murders
and mayhem.
I received a couple of
quietly wonderful books as
gifts, and I have to share the
news in case The Times neglects to review them. They
deserve attention, too.
Ann Ballard of Itawamba
County, has written a slim
volume called “My Garden,
My Homeplace.” I predict
other passionate gardeners
who discover it will put it
on their shelves next to that
classic “Mrs. Whaley and
Her Charleston Garden.”
Ann has taken her greatgrandfather’s 1883 home,
painted it carnation pink,
added a greenhouse and
conservatory, and basically
made the old place an Eden
of sweat equity. You don’t
have to be a great gardener
to enjoy her matter-of-fact
description of what she’s
planted, what survived and
how a blend of books, a
good
front
porch
and
hard
work
can be the
recipe
for
happiness.
I
don’t
Rheta know
the
Johnson author – the
book
was
Columnist sent to me by
a generous
librarian – but I appreciate the lifestyle Ann Ballard
describes. The fine art of
porch-sitting isn’t entirely
lost, and she proves it.
Two of my former Auburn University journalism professor friends have
published the third edition
of “A Pictorial History of
the Loveliest Village,” an
amazing collection of photographs that tell the story
of my alma mater. Love’s
labor is impressive.
You can rely on the accuracy of the photo cutlines,
too, considering that Jack
Simms and Mickey Logue
are the authors. As the Auburn professors used to insist, the three most important things for a journalist
to remember are “accuracy,
accuracy and – accuracy.”
The book is essential for
Auburn people, but others
interested in astronauts,
football, musicians and other celebrities would enjoy
seeing what has happened
at this sometimes underrated “cow college.”
I was touched deeply by
a book intended for juvenile readers. Faye Gibbons’
“Halley,” a Depression-era
story set in the poverty and
gloom of the North Georgia
mountains.
Though the book is fiction, you sense Ms. Gibbons
knows of what she writes.
A young girl yearns for
more than the End Times,
which is the only thing besides money that interests
her rigid and self-righteous
grandfather who is raising
her.
I like a story with clear
villains and heroes, and this
one has both. I think it’s a
book for readers of any age
– and of the ages. Certainly
cruel piety is not in short
supply in 2014. Again, I’ve
never met the author but
would love to.
I do know John M. Williams, probably one of the
most gifted writers I’ve ever
been privileged to read. An
English professor at Lagrange College in Georgia,
Johnny manages to write
and write and write some
more in his spare time,
which is limited. You can
get a taste at LikeTheDew.
com.
His short essays are in the
tradition, I think, of E.B.
White, and he makes the
everyday beautiful and the
local universal. His short
stories are equally impressive, and I hope a publisher
somewhere in 2015 will
“discover” the work of a
man with something to say
who can’t help but write.
Samuel Johnson said
only a blockhead writes for
anything but money. Johnny Williams is the biggest
blockhead I know.

Hollywood plays with fire
In July of 1870, King Wilhelm sent Foreign Minister Bismarck an account of
his meeting with a French
envoy who had demanded
that the king renounce any
Hohenzollern claim to the
Spanish throne.
Bismarck edited the report to make it appear the
Frenchman had insulted
the king, and that Wilhelm
rudely dismissed him. The
Ems Telegram precipitated
the Franco-Prussian war
Bismarck wanted.
Words matter. And if a
picture is worth a thousand
words, how much greater
impact can a motion picture
have? We are finding out.
Egypt has banned “Exodus: Gods and Kings,” the
$140 million 20th Century
Fox biblical epic. Cairo’s
culture minister Gaber Asfour condemns it as “a Zionist film” containing “historical inaccuracies.”
The depiction of enslaved
Jews building the pyramids
and Moses parting the Red
Sea to enable the Jews to
flee and drown the Egyptian
army is false, says Asfour.
Historians date the pyramids to around 2540 B.C.,
500 years before Abraham,
the father of Judaism.
Paramount’s “Noah” was
banned in Egypt, Indonesia
and Malaysia, for taking liberties with the Quran.

son. In the
season’s final
episodes, the U.S. cuts ties
to Pakistan and closes the
embassy.
The Showtime series
“maligns a country that has
been a close partner and
ally of the U.S.,” a Pakistani
embassy spokesman told
the New York Post, and “is a
disservice not only to the security interests of the U.S.,
but also to the people of the
U.S.”
The 2014 “Homeland” finale was aired just after 140
Pakistani school kids were
massacred in Peshawar by
the Taliban.
Angrier than Egypt or
Pakistan is North Korea
over Sony’s “The Interview.” Why would a film
company owned by the Japanese, who are not beloved
in Korea, think it would be a
great fun to make a comedy
out of a CIA plot to assassinate North Korea’s head of
state?
The North Koreans are
serious people. They massacred half of the South
Korean cabinet in the Rangoon bombing. They have
brought down airliners
and sunk warships without
warning. They have plotted
to assassinate South Korea’s president.
Their megalomaniac ruler, Kim Jong-Un, just had
his uncle-mentor executed,
along with his family. Kim
has atom bombs and seeks
to miniaturize them to put
atop missiles able to reach
the United States.
He is the most erratic
and dangerous ruler on
the planet and this assassination-comedy is just the
thing to set him off.
Says Adam Cathcart, a
North Korea expert at Leeds
University, “In North Korea
it’s more or less a fait accompli that the Americans
are trying to kill our leader.”
To sustain its Stalinist dynasty, says the Washington
Post, Pyongyang has created a “personality cult that
is anything but a laughing
matter.”
In retaliation for “The Interview,” North Korea, says
the FBI, hacked into Sony’s
computers, published confidential emails and threatened retaliation against any
who showed the film.
The North has repeatedly
denied it hacked into Sony.
But it now appears the U.S.
has retaliated by disrupting
Internet service in North
Korea, much to the cheers of
the War Party, which wants
President Obama to put the
Hermit Kingdom back on
the list of state sponsors of
terror.

North Korea is now using racial slurs to describe
Obama.
There is an aspect of reckless immaturity here.
While the Wall Street
Journal thinks it would be
fun to send DVDs of “The
Interview” by balloon into
the North, the Washington
Post says possession of the
film there would be regarded as treasonous, and could
bring a death sentence.
No one denies Sony the
right to produce a comedy
about blowing up Kim Jong
Un. Nor was anyone denying theaters or Internet
sites the right to show it.
What Sony seemed to want
was to produce a movie that
made the assassination of
a dictator appear hilarious,
but to be exempt from any
consequences.
But we live in a world today where if you produce
cartoons of the Prophet
with a bomb for a turban, or
disparage Islam in videos,
books or movies, you can get
yourself and others killed.
To enrich itself, Hollywood is playing games with
religious beliefs and historical truths – and making
enemies, not all of whom
believe in turning the other
cheek.

Missing toddler’s
body found in creek
COLUMBUS, Ohio —
The body of a missing
14-month-old Maryland
boy was found in an Ohio
creek Wednesday after
his mother allegedly lied
to police that she had
left him on a stranger’s
porch.
Searchers found the
body of Cameron Beckford in Big Walnut Creek
on Wednesday morning,
said Sgt. Rich Weiner, a
Columbus police spokesman.
Dainesha Stevens
has not been charged in
the boy’s death but on
Wednesday she was ordered held on $150,000
bond on related charges
of endangering children
and tampering with evidence.
Her attorney, Mark Collins, said she made up
the story about having
left the boy on a doorstep and that she tipped
police to the creek where
his body was found.
Police began to investigate after Stevens, 24,
called 911 on Monday
to say a family wouldn’t
return her 6-year-old
daughter after she had
agreed to let her go to
their house to play with
the kids.
After police found the
girl safe, Stevens told
police she and the friend
with whom she was staying had left her son on a
doorstop “because they
could not care for him
any longer,” according to
Columbus police.
It’s unclear when
the boy died. Stevens
was arrested Tuesday
because she failed to
protect her son “by allowing an individual to
violently spank him numerous times on several
occasions,” according to
a police charging document filed Wednesday.
The discipline removed
several layers of skin
and caused the boy’s
buttocks to bleed, the
document said.
Professor among 4
fired in UNC fraud
RALEIGH, N.C. —
North Carolina’s flagship
public university is trying
to fire a senior professor,
accepted the resignation of another faculty
member and dismissed
an academic counselor
for athletes their roles
in the fraud scandal
that rocked the school,
campus officials said
Wednesday.
Steps to terminate University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill philosophy
professor and former faculty leader Jeanette Boxill started on Oct. 22, the
same day that a scathing
report into the cheating
scandal was released,
campus Chancellor Carol
Folt said in a statement.
Boxill is appealing Folt’s
decision, information
that was released after a
lawsuit by The Associated Press and nine other
media organizations.
North Carolina’s public records law requires
state agencies, including
public universities, to
make employee records
available. That includes
records regarding their
dismissal, suspension,
or demotion. UNC-Chapel
Hill officials had said
the disclosure wasn’t
required until after an
employee has finished
appealing the decision, a
process that could take
years.
The report by former
U.S. Justice Department
official Kenneth Wainstein found a pattern
Check out the
of fake classes, which
allowed 3,100 athletes
and other students to
earn artificially high
grades from 1993 to
2011. While the sham
courses were solely in
the African studies department, multiple people around campus knew
of them or suspected
something but said nothing, the report said.
Folt said she was naming Boxill “in light of the
extraordinary circumstances underlying the
longstanding and intolerable academic irregularities described in the
Wainstein Report, as well
as her role as chair of
the faculty council during
a period of time covered
by the report.”
Campus lawyer David
Parker also disclosed
that Timothy McMillan
resigned after 17 years
at the school. He was
a senior lecturer in the
Department of African,
African American and
Diaspora Studies, the
renamed department
where a retired administrator orchestrated and a
retired chairman allowed
the pattern of no-show
classes and generous
grades.
Pending home sales
climb slightly
WASHINGTON — The
number of Americans
signing contracts to buy
homes rose modestly in
November as a strengthening economy helped
nudge some would-be
homebuyers.
The National Association of Realtors said
Wednesday that its seasonally adjusted pending home sales index
climbed 0.8 percent the
past month to 104.8
from a revised 104 in
October. The index remains slightly below its
2013 average but is 4.1
percent higher than last
November.
Pending sales are
a barometer of future
purchases. A one- to
two-month lag usually exists between a contract
and a completed sale.
The number of contract
signings increased in the
Northeast, South and
West last month, while
declining in the Midwest.
“Home sales activity
will likely continue to be
uninspiring in the months
ahead,” Laura Rosner,
an economist at BNP Paribas, said in a research
note to clients.
Housing has struggled
to fully rebound since
the recession ended
more than five years
ago. Many potential
buyers lack the savings
and strong credit history needed to afford a
home, causing them to
rent or remain in their existing houses instead of
upgrading. Higher home
prices and relatively
stagnant incomes have
also curtailed buying.
Separate NAR data
last week showed that
sales of existing homes
fell 6.1 percent in November to the slowest
pace in six months,
The Commerce Department said last week that
new home sales slid 1.6
percent in November to
a seasonally adjusted
annual rate of 438,000.
That remains significantly below the annual rate
of 700,000 seen during
the 1990s.
Republicans await
Scalise flap to ease
WASHINGTON —
House Republican leaders have been supportive
of Louisiana Rep. Steve
Scalise since the revela-
tion that he appeared before a white supremacist
organization 12 years
ago, suggesting they
think the flare-up will
fade, while some Democrats have been critical
without calling for him to
resign.
Scalise, the Republican whip in the House,
said Tuesday that he
regrets making the
speech in 2002 and condemns the views of such
groups. He said that
as a state legislator he
spoke to many groups at
that time about a major
tax issue.
“One of the many
groups that I spoke to
regarding this critical
legislation was a group
whose views I wholeheartedly condemn,” the
Louisiana congressman
said in a statement. “It
was a mistake I regret,
and I emphatically oppose the divisive racial
and religious views
groups like these hold.”
Republican leaders defended Scalise
within minutes of his
statement. The new
Congress, in which the
GOP will control both the
House and the Senate,
convenes next week.
House Speaker John
Boehner of Ohio said
Scalise “made an error
in judgment, and he was
right to acknowledge
it was wrong and inappropriate.” Boehner said
Scalise “has my full confidence as our whip.”
House Majority Leader
Kevin McCarthy of
California said Scalise
“acknowledged he made
a mistake and has condemned the views that
organization espouses.
I’ve known him as a
friend for many years
and I know that he does
not share the beliefs of
that organization.”
Scalise won a key endorsement Monday from
Rep. Cedric Richmond,
who will be Louisiana’s
only Democrat and only
black in Congress when
the new Congress convenes. Richmond told
NOLA.com: “I don’t think
Steve Scalise has a racist bone in his body.”
He said he has worked
closely with Scalise
and “I am not going to
let them use Steve as
a scapegoat to score
political points when I
know him and know his
family.”
Louisiana’s Republican
governor, Bobby Jindal,
also defended the congressman.

Lowndes may drop
retirees’ insurance
COLUMBUS —
Lowndes County supervisors are taking a second look at a decision
to end health insurance
for retirees on Dec. 31,
2015.
The action was taken
in December amid projections of $150,000 in
annual savings. County
Administrator Ralph Billingsley says 10 former
employees would be affected.
Lowndes County pays
about $1.8 million in
employee health insurance premiums annually.
Board members say
one option could be to
grandfather in coverage
for existing retirees —
at least until they reach
age 65 and qualify for
Medicare.
Man sentenced
in death of his wife
JACKSON — A man
sentenced to life in prison after being convicted
of murder in the 2011
death of his wife has
appealed his conviction
to the state Court of Appeals.
The Appeals Court
has scheduled oral arguments in the case for
Jan. 22 in Jackson.
Court records show
a Jasper County jury
convicted Shannon
L. Rayner in 2013 in
the death Sonya Hunt
Rayner at his family’s
home in Bay Springs.
Prosecutors say Sonya Rayner died of blunt
force trauma and the
house set on fire. Shannon Rayner escaped
from the fire but his
wife did not. Her body
was found in the house,
which also was used as
a deer camp.
Watchdog seeks
to sanction judge
JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court
will consider sanctions
proposed against a
north Mississippi judge.
The Mississippi Commission on Judicial
Performance filed a
complaint in September
against Chancellor Talmadge Littlejohn of New
Albany.
The commission alleges Littlejohn ordered
someone jailed for nonpayment of child support
when the case had been
appealed to the Mississippi Supreme Court.
The man was arrested
and held for three days
in the Lee County jail
before he was released.
The commission says
the filing of an appeal
bond took the case out
of Littlejohn’s court.
The commission is
recommending a public
reprimand and a $500
fine of Littlejohn.
Casino countdown
under way
D’IBERVILLE — The
builder says construction of the $290 million
Scarlet Pearl Casino resort in D’Iberville is on
schedule.
Mayor Rusty Quave
said that after 22 years
of trying to get a casino
and its accompanying
revenue boost for the
city, “I’m not going to
be satisfied until they
cut the ribbon and we
walk in.”
That’s scheduled for
December 2015.
The 167,000-squarefoot casino will be the
centerpiece, but the
resort is designed with
a variety of other amenities to draw customers
— a 300-room hotel
in a 15-story tower to
capitalize on the views,
a 500-seat event center, buffet and gourmet
restaurants, a coffee
shop/café and a central
bar.

Highway crash spills,
kills 11,000 fish
EUGENE, Ore. — A
tanker truck moving
young salmon from a failing hatchery crashed and
spilled thousands of fish
on the side of a highway
in western Oregon.
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife estimates 11,000
juvenile salmon died in
Tuesday’s wreck east of
Eugene.
The truck was hauling
the last load of an estimated 227,000 salmon
from a hatchery that’s
low on water because of
problems with a dam on
the McKenzie River. The
fish were to be released
in a river south of Eugene.
The Register-Guard
reports that the driver
missed a curve and
crashed into a power

The truck ended up on
its side in a ditch.
The driver suffered a

Top business stories:
U.S. grows, world slows
BY TALI ARBEL
Associated Press
NEW YORK — This
year showed how sheltered the U.S. economy
is from geopolitical and
health crises around
the world. The global
economy
sputtered,
but the U.S. powered
ahead. Employers are
finally hiring enough to
lower unemployment. A
plunge in gas prices and
a rising stock market has
Americans feeling richer
and spending a bit more.
Those are some of the
top business stories of
2014, as chosen by business editors at The Associated Press. Others
include massive product disasters: A string of
auto recalls after faulty
ignition switches from
General Motors Corp.
and air bags in many car
models caused injuries
and deaths.
The top 10 business
stories of 2014:
1. U.S. grows as world
slows: After a freezing
winter put a chill on buying and selling, the U.S.
economy has posted its
best six months since
2003. But the rest of
the world hasn’t been as
lucky. Japan has fallen
back into recession. The
18 countries that make
up the eurozone are
barely growing and fear a
dangerous drop in prices.
2. Jobs are back: Millions of Americans still
struggle with low pay
and fewer hours of work
than they want, and millions have given up looking for a job entirely. But
five years after the recession ended, the U.S.
job market is looking
healthy. The unemployment rate is below 6 percent. Employers added
nearly 3 million jobs,
the most since 1999, as
shoppers and businesses
spend more.
3. Security breaches:
The theft of 40 million
credit and debit cards
and 70 million personal
records from Target last
fall turned out to be just
the beginning. Home Depot Inc. hackers nabbed
56 million cards and 53
million email addresses.
There were breaches at
Kmart, Dairy Queen, and
Albertsons.
JPMorgan
Chase & Co. said hackers
stole information covering
76 million households and
7 million small businesses.
4. Oil plunge: Global
crude prices have fallen
to around $53 per barrel from this year’s high
of $115 because of more
production,
especially
in the U.S., while slowing economies in Europe and Asia crimp demand. A rapid decline
in the second half of the
year pushed gasoline to
about $2.26 a gallon in
the U.S., the lowest price
in more than five years.
Americans are pocketing $16.2 billion more
a month than when gas
was at its 2014 high of
$3.70. Cheaper crude is
also pumping up auto
sales and saving airlines
money on jet fuel.
5. Auto recalls: In the
U.S. alone, automakers
recalled more than 60
million cars and trucks.
That far surpasses the
previous record of 30.8
million in 2004. The
bulk of those come from
two problems that have
led to nearly 50 deaths
and dozens of injuries.
Japanese air bag supplier Takata, whose air
bags can inflate too fast
and spew shrapnel, has
fought regulators’ demands to expand recalls.
6. Mobile momentum:
PC sales are slumping,
but mobile phone subscriptions are expected
to reach 7 billion this year
— the same as the world’s
population. Phone makers are launching cheaper smartphones aimed
at developing countries,
which could get billions
more people online.
7. Stock market soars:
Another year, another
record. The end of the
Federal Reserve’s bondbuying stimulus program stressed investors
this fall, but U.S. stocks
kept rising, extending
the bull market run to
nearly six years.
8. Minimum wage
growth: Inequality has
been rising, and median
household incomes have
fallen since the recession began in late 2007.
But the federal minimum hourly wage has
remained at $7.25 since
2009. Labor organizers,
fast-food workers and
Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
employees have campaigned for higher pay
across the country.
9. Janet Yellen: Janet
Yellen, a 68-year-old former economics professor
and the No. 2 at the Fed,
became the first woman
to lead the central bank.
Plainspoken, with a trace
of her native Brooklyn in
her speech, Yellen criticizes inequality, focuses

Religious leaders are telling people, “all one has to do to
be saved is to receive Christ as your personal savior”. Such a
statement is unclear as to what is involved in receiving Christ.
It is impossible for one to receive Christ without receiving his
word, because the two are inseparably joined. “In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was
God” (John 1:1). According to John 1:14, the word was made
flesh and lived among men, “And the Word was made flesh, and
dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the
only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth”. Those who
reject Christ refuse to receive his word, “He that rejecteth me,
and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word
that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day”.
Those who receive Christ, are given the power, right or
privilege to become sons of God. “But as many as received him,
to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them
that believe on his name” (John 1:12): Christ did not say that they
were sons of God, but were given the power to become the sons
of God. One who has become a child of God, has been forgiven
of all past sins. “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
but he that believeth not shall be damned” (Mark 16:16). Jesus
stated that repentance and remission of sins would be preached
in his name beginning at Jerusalem, “And that repentance and
remission of sins should be preached in his name among all
nations, beginning at Jerusalem” (Luke 24:47). This was first
preached on the day of Pentecost in the city of Jerusalem. “Then
Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you
in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye
shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost” (Acts 2:38).
Connected to receiving Christ is that of being born of God.
“Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh,
nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:13). Christ told
Nicodemus, “Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born
again” (John 3:7). That birth involved water and the Spirit, “...
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter
into the kingdom of God” (John 3:5). This birth is brought about
by the word, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of
truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures”
(James 1:18). “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but
of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth
for ever” (1 Peter 1:23). Receiving Christ and his word is not
something mystical, but part of the new birth. “For ye are all the
children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as
have baptized into Christ have put on Christ” (Galations 3:2627). One cannot receive Christ without accepting and obeying
his word.

ban areas were most likely to make organic food a
priority.
Americans are
already informed
Even though a majority
favors more calorie labeling, most Americans say
they already have enough
information to decide
whether they are making
healthy purchases at restaurants.
Sixty percent say they
now have enough nutrition information at sitdown restaurants and
56 percent say they do
at fast food restaurants.
That number drops to
48 percent at prepared
food counters in grocery
stores.
Around a third say they
don’t have enough information to decide if they
are making a healthy
purchase in any of those
places.
When it comes to the
grocery store, 75 percent
of people say they have
enough information to
make a healthy choice.
Unlike restaurants, where
nutritional information is
often a mystery, nutrition
facts panels have been required on packaged foods
since the 1990s. The FDA
included prepared foods
at supermarkets in the
menu labeling rules as
grocery stores have increasingly sold restaurant-like offerings.
The menu labels were
required by Congress as
part of health overhaul in
2010. The FDA has said
they are just one way to
combat obesity, since
Americans eat and drink
about one-third of their
calories away from home.
Michael Taylor, FDA’s
deputy commissioner of
foods, said the agency
knows there is strong interest from the public in
the labeling.

Holiday song not well known despite history
Eighteenth
century
Scottish poet Robert
Burns devoted the last
years of his life to writing
verse that was put to song.
The poem “Auld Lang
Syne,” later
put to the
tune of a
Scottish
folk song,
is one of
many such
songs from
Stacy the LowJones land Scots
tradition
The
Dowtowner attributed
to
him,
although
he hinted that he did not
write all of the lyrics.
When it was submitted to the Scots Musical
Museum, Burns included
a note stating: “The following song, an old song,
of the olden times, and
which has never been in
print, nor even in manuscript until I took it down
from an old man’s singing, is enough to recom-
mend any air.” First published in 1788, a slightly
different version was
published in Thomson’s
Select Songs of Scotland
in 1799, three years following his death.
Nevertheless, we still
sing the song to a slightly
different tune than the
traditional Scottish ditty
called “Can Ye Labour
Lea,” to which Burns set
the lyrics. It is sometimes
titled “Song of the Old
Folks.” The song is a sentimental one that serves as
a reminder of the love and
kindness of those around
us and a reflection on the
past and our friendships.
The song’s several verses
make reference to two
childhood friends who
are separated by time and
distance. They later reunite to share a drink and
memories. They inquire
as to whether they’ll ever
forget the old days and
their affection for one another.
Whatever the origin of
the song, it has become
a beloved way to close
out one year and bring
in another calendar year.
In Asian locales such as
Bangkok and Beijing, it
has become an anthem of
togetherness and bittersweet farewells so much
that it might be presumed
to be a Chinese or Thai
folk song. In France, it is
a song that eases the pain
of parting with its words:
“Oui, nous nous reverrons, mes frères, ce n’est
qu’un au revoir”—or “Yes,
we meet again, my brothers; this is a goodbye.”
Although it may have
been Burns who is rumored to have penned
the words to the quintessential New Year’s Song
“Auld Lang Syne”—which
means “old long since”—
it was bandleader Guy
Lombardo who made it
an enduring tradition.
Lombardo and his
group, the Royal Canadian Band, took the stage
of the Roosevelt Hotel in
New York City on New
Year’s Eve in 1929. Their
performance was broadcast on CBS radio before
midnight and NBC radio
after midnight. Between
broadcasts,
Lombardo
chose to have the band
play an old Scottish folk
song he had heard from
Scottish immigrants in
Ontario.
Prior to Lombardo’s
rendition, there were
documented instances of
the song being sung on
New Year’s Eve, but it was
not quite the tradition
that it would become until after Lombardo’s band
performed it. Lombardo
and the Royal Canadians
performed it every year
in New York City until
his death at 75 in 1977. In
fact, the band continued
to perform it for two more
years following Lombardo’s death. Their competitor for holiday viewing was Dick Clark’s New
Year’s Rockin’ Eve, which
popular with younger au-
diences in the 1970s.
In November 2009,
staff and students at
Glasgow University in
Scotland set a new world
record involving the song.
More than 200 people
sang it in 41 different languages, including Gaelic,
Czech, Estonian, Esperanto, Latin, Thai, Persian, Arabic, Malay, Vietnamese, Frisian, Hindi,
Urdu, Irish Gaelic, Romanian, Scots, Welsh, Ukrainian, Yoruba, Swahili,
Catalan, Bangla, Maori,
Chichewa, Georgian, and
Igbo.
However, so few people
have bothered to learn
the lyrics to a song that
is associated with annual
tradition. Very few could
quote anything beyond
the first verse and chorus.
Add to that lack of learning the fact that the song
is often slurred by revelers in the midst of alcoholic libations, including
champagne, most obviously.
The song, which has
been called “the most
popular song that nobody
knows the words to,” is so
misunderstood that it has
often become the butt of
pop culture jokes. In the
movie “When Harry Met
Sally,” Harry (Billy Crystal) remarks to Sally (Meg
Ryan) that he never quite
understood the song and
doesn’t know whether it
is about remembering
old friends or forgetting
them.
So, in celebration of the
New Year, with deference
to poet Robert Burns and
bandleader Guy Lombardo, here’s to times and
friends from the “old long
since.”

For Obama library, haves vie against have-nots Boy, 2, fatally shoots
BY JOSH LEDERMAN
Associated Press
HONOLULU — President Barack Obama has
preached economic opportunity and equal access to education as cornerstones of the legacy
he wants to leave behind.
But in the contest to host
his presidential library,
two public universities
that serve needy communities fear the playing field has been tilted
against them by a pair
of elite, private schools
with seemingly endless
money.
As Obama weighs a
decision he’ll announce
within months, the University of Hawaii and the
University of Illinois at
Chicago are struggling
to offer the upfront resources needed to offset
the massive cost of building the library and presidential museum, expected to run close to half a
billion dollars. The other
two schools in the running, Columbia University and the University of
Chicago, are both top-10
schools with a combined
endowment of more than
$15 billion.
The Obamas are expected to raise much —
but not all — of the money
themselves, so a university’s ability to contribute will be a major factor. The Barack Obama
Foundation, which is
screening proposals and
will recommend a winner to Obama, has asked
each school in the run-
“We bring different assets
to the table. But if the
question is who can raise
more money, Honolulu’s
going to come in third.”
Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii
ning for explicit details
about what financial and
other resources they can
bring to bear.
“Look, when it comes
to raw fundraising prowess, we’re not in a position to compete with New
York and Chicago,” said
Sen. Brian Schatz, DHawaii, during a recent
interview in his Honolulu
office, overlooking the
panoramic, oceanfront
site that Hawaii has proposed for the library. “We
bring different assets to
the table. But if the question is who can raise more
money, Honolulu’s going
to come in third.”
In an unusual move this
week, the Obama foundation let it be known
that it was displeased
with Chicago’s proposals — in particular, the
fact that the University
of Chicago can’t guarantee access to its proposed
South Side sites because
they sit on city park district property. Still, the
blunt warning through
the media appeared designed mainly to light a
fire under the University
of Chicago to fill holes in
its proposal, and Mayor
Rahm Emanuel’s office
quickly stepped in to say
the city was working to
acquire the land for the
library’s use.
Across town at the
University of Illinois at
Chicago, student trustee
Danielle Leibowitz said
her university has suspected that it’s the underdog all along. A key
player in her school’s bid
for the library, Leibowitz
said the university wants
to team up with a community foundation to
build the library in North
Lawndale, a blighted,
heavily black neighborhood on the West Side.
“If he wants to be consistent with the message
he’s given throughout
his presidency, it really
only makes sense to give
it to us,” Leibowitz said.
“To suddenly hand over
your legacy to a private
institution seems rather
hypocritical.”
The University of Chicago and Columbia declined to comment for
this report.
The Obama foundation said each school has
its own unique strengths
and regardless of which
school is chosen, the
foundation will be able to
raise the needed money.
“The foundation is
looking at each response
as a complete package
and will choose a partner
which, on balance, offers the best opportunity
to create an outstanding
presidential library and
museum,” the foundation said in a statement.
As public, taxpayerfunded institutions, the
University of Illinois and
the University of Hawaii
face legal and practical
limitations on how much
they can contribute to a
project such as Obama’s
library. Still, both schools
have sought to show
they’re eager to do what
they can. Hawaii lawmakers have expressed
interest in having the
state pitch in, while the
foundation partnering
with the University of
Illinois has pledged $5
million. Obama was born
in Hawaii and started his
family and political career in Illinois.
Columbia and the
University of Chicago
have been coy about
what they’re offering.
But people familiar with
those schools’ proposals,
who weren’t authorized
to comment publicly
and requested anonymity, said both schools are
prepared to absorb a substantial chunk of the cost
themselves. They’re also
working to secure attractive real estate where the
library can be built.
mother in Wal-Mart
BY NICHOLAS K.
GERANIOS
Associated Press
HAYDEN, Idaho — A
shopping trip to a northern Idaho Wal-Mart
turned tragic when a
2-year-old boy reached
into his mother’s purse,
grabbed her concealed
gun and accidentally
killed the woman, authorities said.
Veronica J. Rutledge,
29, who was described
as a loving mother, was
shopping Tuesday with
her son and three other
children when the young
boy grabbed the smallcaliber handgun, which
discharged one time,
Kootenai County sheriff’s
spokesman Stu Miller
said. Miller said the boy
had been left in a shopping cart.
Rutledge was from
Blackfoot in southeastern
Idaho, and her family had
come to the area to visit
relatives.
She was an employee
of the Idaho National
Laboratory, The Spokesman-Review of Spokane,
Washington, reported.
The Idaho Falls laboratory supports the U.S.
Department of Energy
in nuclear and energy
research and national defense.
Responding deputies
found Rutledge dead in
the Wal-Mart in Hayden,
a politically conservative
town of about 9,000 peo-
ple about 40 miles northeast of Spokane, Washington.
“It appears to be a pretty tragic accident,” Miller
said.
The victim’s father-inlaw, Terry Rutledge, told
The Associated Press that
Veronica Rutledge “was
a beautiful, young, loving
mother.”
“She was not the least
bit irresponsible,” Terry
Rutledge said. “She was
taken much too soon.”
The woman’s husband
arrived to the store in Idaho’s northern panhandle
shortly after the shooting
around 10:20 a.m. Tuesday, Miller said. All the
children were taken to a
relative’s house.
Brooke Buchanan, a
spokeswoman for WalMart, said in a statement
that the shooting was a
“very sad and tragic accident.” The Hayden store
closed for the rest of the
day.
“We are working closely with the local sheriff’s
department while they
investigate what happened,” Buchanan said.
Idaho National Laboratory senior chemical engineer Vince Maio worked
with Rutledge on a research paper about using
glass ceramic to store nuclear waste, The Spokesman-Review reported.
Maio said he was immediately impressed with
her.

MARKET SUMMARY

D
Economic bellwether
The Commerce Department
reports its latest data on
construction spending tomorrow.
Building activity has slowly
improved through much of 2014,
although its contribution to
broader economic growth has
been relatively modest.
Economists predict that
spending on single-family
homes, schools and other
construction projects rose 0.3
percent in November from the
previous month.

The latest reading of an index based manufacturing index
on a survey of purchasing managers

is expected to show a slight monthly
est.
decline.
57.5

Institute for Supply Management's
manufacturing index slipped to 57.5 in 55
December from 58.7 a month earlier.
That would be the second monthly
drop in a row. Any number above 50
signals expansion. The October
50
reading matched a three-year high
J A S O N D
reached in August. The December
index is due out tomorrow.

Dear Readers: Welcome to 2015! My,
how time flies. Our
New Year’s wish for
you, our readers, is
for this year to be one
of health and happiness. Do your best to
make this year better than the last. Be
kinder. Be more patient. Be more tolerant. Help someone
in need. Vow to look
after your health,
work out more, eat
less junk, meditate,
get a massage, give up
smoking. Smile more.
Put more effort and
energy into your relationships, and tell the
people you love how
much they mean to
you. You never know
what tomorrow will
bring. Please start
this year off right.
Dear Annie: A couple
of years back, a reader
asked you to reprint some
pieces you had previously
printed on New Year’s
Day. She said she used
one of them as the basis
for her New Year’s resolutions. I remember liking
both pieces and wondering whether you might
reprint them every year.
You didn’t do it last year,
but will you consider doing it now? -- Hoping for
Inspiration in Texas
Dear Texas: We’d be
happy to. These two
pieces have proved to
Annie’s
Mailbox
be extremely popular, and we hope you
enjoy seeing them in
print once again:
Just for Today (author unknown)
Just for today I will
live through the next
12 hours and not
tackle my whole life’s
problems at once.
Just for today I will
improve my mind. I
will learn something
useful. I will read
something that requires effort, thought
and concentration.
Just for today I will
be agreeable. I will
look my best, speak
in a well- modulated
voice, be courteous
and considerate.
Just for today I will
not find fault with
friend, relative or colleague. I will not try
to change or improve
anyone but myself.
Just for today I will
have a program. I
might not follow it exactly, but I will have
it. I will save myself
from two enemies -hurry and indecision.
Just for today I will
exercise my character
in three ways. I will
do a good turn and
keep it a secret. If anyone finds out, it won’t
count.
Just for today I will
do two things I don’t
want to do, just for exercise. Just for today
I will be unafraid. Especially will I be unafraid to enjoy what is
beautiful and believe
that as I give to the
world, the world will
give to me.
Dear
Readers:

Dear Abby
D E A R
READERS:
Welcome to
2015!
If the last
year
was
challenging
for some of
us, a new
one has arrived, bringing with it our
chance for a
new begin-
ning.
Today is the day we have an
opportunity to discard destructive old habits for healthy new
ones, and with that in mind, I
will share Dear Abby’s often-requested list of New Year’s Resolutions, which were adapted by
my late mother, Pauline Phillips,
from the original credo of AlAnon:
JUST FOR TODAY: I will live
through this day only. I will not
brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow. I will not
set far-reaching goals or try to
overcome all of my problems at
once.
I know that I can do something
for 24 hours that would overwhelm me if I had to keep it up
for a lifetime.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will
be happy. I will not dwell on
thoughts that depress me. If
my mind fills with clouds, I will
chase them away and fill it with
sunshine.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will ac-
cept what is. I will face reality.
I will correct those things that I
can correct and accept those I
cannot.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought
and concentration. I will not be a
mental loafer.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will make
a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous
to those who cross my path, and
I’ll not speak ill of others. I will
improve my appearance, speak
softly, and not interrupt when
someone else is talking.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will refrain from improving anybody
but myself.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will do
something positive to improve
my health. If I’m a smoker, I’ll
quit. If I am overweight, I will eat
healthfully -- if only just for today.
And not only that, I will get off
the couch and take a brisk walk,
even if it’s only around the block.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will gather the courage to do what is right
and take responsibility for my
own actions.
And now, Dear Readers, I
would like to share an item that
was sent to me by L.J. Bhatia,
a reader from New Delhi, India:
DEAR ABBY: This year, no
resolutions, only some guidelines.
The Holy Vedas say, “Man has
subjected himself to thousands
of self-inflicted bondages. Wis-
dom comes to a man who lives
according to the true eternal
laws of nature.”
The prayer of St. Francis (of
which there are several versions) contains a powerful message:
“Lord, make me an instrument
of your peace;
“Where there is hatred, let me
sow love;
“Where there is injury, pardon;
“Where there is doubt, faith;
“Where there is despair, hope;
“Where there is darkness,
light;
“And where there is sadness,
joy.
“O Divine Master,
“Grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console;
“To be understood, as to understand;
“To be loved, as to love;
“For it is in giving that we receive,
“It is in pardoning that we are
pardoned,
“And it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life.”
And so, Dear Readers, may
this new year bring with it good
health, peace and joy to all of
you. -- LOVE, ABBY

Horoscopes
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Your favorite people are the
ones who can express themselves sincerely and briefly. Your
day will be filled with the other
kind, so you’ll do well to develop
the conversational means of
getting to the point.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Whoever told you that you have
to be an expert before you start?
Start now, and if you stick with it
a while, you’ll become an expert
through the process.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You are reticent to stand out because that means you’ll have to
field a lot of mixed feelings about
what you’re doing. Be brave.
Field the feedback. It’s better to
be envied than to be ignored.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Maybe you’d prefer that the
people in your life didn’t make
mistakes, but you do appreciate a person who can own up
to responsibility when mistakes
happen. In fact, this is how trust
is built today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Since
you are feeling particularly
impressionable today, place
yourself in the company of the
people you want to be like and
in the environments you aspire
to inhabit regularly.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Planning will trump discipline.
Think of your day like an obstacle course that you know well,
and outfit yourself with all that’s
needed to sail through each
hurdle.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
If you needed an excuse to lie
around and watch comedies on
television, here it is: Sometimes
it’s enough just to take care that
your spirit isn’t broken.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
The best indicator of right and
wrong will be your feelings.
Right will probably feel difficult
before and during but peaceful
after. Wrong will feel easy before
and during but terrible after.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You never have to seek new
interests, because one naturally leads to another. If you find
yourself searching, it’s because
you’re not being curious enough
about what’s right in front of you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Memories make up stories, but that doesn’t mean your
memories are mistaken. The
stories, true or false, are yours.
You remember them a certain
way for a reason.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). The games of the day will
involve risk, and there’s no way
to get around this. If you’re not
risking, you’re not playing, and
if you’re not playing, you’re not
having fun.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You’ll be inspired to create today. This happens in part because wherever you go there
are lovely things to look at. Appreciating beauty makes you
beautiful.

WILD CARD WEEKEND
Cardinals (11–5) at Panthers (7–8–1)
The Panthers are the first team to reach the playoffs
in a season during which it played seven straight
games without a win. Carolina used a 4–0 record in
December — its third straight four-win December —
to rebound. A once-healthy Arizona got out to a 9–1
start before losing four of its last six, including the
last two. The Cardinals have not eclipsed 20 points
since Week 10.
Ravens (10–6) at Steelers (11–5)
The Steelers can apparently still roll along with their
big three of Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and
Le'Veon Bell after it was determined Bell suffered no
ligament damage in his knee in Week 17. However,
Bell will likely be questionable and in a lot of pain.
Baltimore rallied past Cleveland to earn a playoff spot
and travel to face their AFC North rivals. Pittsburgh
won 43–23 in Week 9 but Baltimore posted a 26–6
win in Week 2.
Bengals (10–5–1) at Colts (11–5)
The Dallas Cowboys are 4–0 in December, with a potent offense averaging 41.3 points per game during the final month of the regular season.
ALBERT PENA/CSM /LANDOV
THE ‘BOYS ARE BACK… IN THE PLAYOFFS
Dallas Cowboys return to postseason for first time since 2009
T
he day your five-year old has waited his whole life for is finally
here — the Dallas Cowboys are back in the postseason.
Behind a franchise-record setting trio on offense, Dallas won the
NFC East with a 12–4 record and has returned to the NFL playoffs
for the first time since 2009.
“Now we have a chance to take everything we built and paid for, the foundation and the experiences we had … We have a chance to carry that into a
tournament I like to call the playoffs,” said Cowboys owner and GM Jerry
Jones. “Our team is ready to do that like any team, and frankly any team I’ve
been associated with have different nuances than the teams I had in the ’90s.
Still, this team has a uniqueness to it that could serve us well in the playoffs.”
When the Cowboys play host to the Detroit Lions in an NFC Wild Card
game Sunday, it will be Dallas’ first playoff game since a Jan. 17, 2009 Divisional loss to Minnesota (34–3). The Cowboys defeated Philadelphia
34–14 in a Wild Card game the week before their loss to Minnesota —
marking the Boys’ first playoff win since a 40–15 victory against the Vikings
on Dec. 28, 1996.
Back in 1996, it was the triplets of quarterback Troy Aikman, running back
Emmitt Smith and receiver Michael Irvin that was leading the charge. This
year, it is Tony Romo under center, DeMarco Murray toting the ball and Dez
Bryant making the grabs.
Romo finished the season with a 113.2 passer rating, the highest single-season mark in club history.
Murray posted 12 100-yard games this season and finished with 1,845 rushing yards. He passed Smith’s 11 100-yard games and 1,773 yards to set franchise records.
Bryant finished with 16 receiving touchdowns to pass Terrell Owens (15)
for the most in a season in team history.
The Cowboys enter the postseason red hot, scoring 41.3 points per game and
going 4–0 in December. That point production tied an NFL record for teams
that played at least four games in the month of December, according to Elias
Sports Bureau. (There have been more than 800 team-seasons in which a team
played at least four regular-season games in December.) Dallas scored at least
40 points in three of its four games this month; it reached the 40-point mark
in only two other games over their last six seasons.
The December performance has helped turn around a stigma that surrounded
a Cowboys franchise that could not win in the last month of the year, particularly under coach Jason Garrett and Romo. Dallas entered this season 8–11 in
December in four seasons with Garrett, and Romo 14–22 in the month.
“Those qualities have a way of sticking with you whether they are positive
or negative,” Jones said. “When you get those characteristics of fading in December, there is only one way to cure it and that is to prove it in the people’s
eyes. I know a lot of fans and media are accustomed to it but now we have
proved it right before their eyes. We have basically cleaned it up in December.”
Meanwhile, Detroit is back in the postseason for the second time in three
years after previously not having made since 2000. The Lions are still looking for their first playoff win since a 38–6 Divisional win over Dallas on
Jan. 12, 1992. That win was the first postseason victory for the franchise
since 1957, with only two appearances in between.
Both teams could be without their standout defensive tackles and see the opposing offenses get a boost as a result.
Ndamukong Suh has been suspended by the league for stepping on the leg
of Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Week 17. For Dallas, free-agent
acquisition Henry Melton has a leg injury that could cause him to miss the entire postseason. He was coming off an ACL tear suffered last season while
playing for Chicago.
OUTSIDE THE HUDDLE
BLACK MONDAY
The San Francisco 49ers parted ways with coach Jim Harbaugh, who landed
quickly on his feet at the University of Michigan. Harbaugh’s alma mater rewarded
him with the richest contract in college football history. Harbaugh led the 49ers to
three straight NFC Championship Games and lost a Super Bowl to his brother
John’s Baltimore Ravens in 2012. According to Elias Sports Bureau, Harbaugh's
four-year tenure with the 49ers was the best in the regular season in NFL history.
Of all the coaches who spent part or all of four consecutive seasons, but no more
than four, his 44–19–1 mark bested Lou Saban's 36–17–3 run in his first go-round
with Buffalo (1962-65). If Denver's John Fox were to leave Denver after this season,
his 46–18 would surpass Harbaugh's. New England, Green Bay, and Denver were the
only franchises with better records than the 49ers during Harbaugh's tenure. …
Harbaugh was not the only coaching casualty on Black Monday, but he was the only
one to instantly secure another job. Atlanta fired Mike Smith after seven seasons,
a 66–46 record, 1–4 in the postseason, and no postseason trips the last two years.
… While Falcons General Manager Thomas Dimitroff remained, two other organizations did make a clean sweep. The New York Jets, who missed the postseason for
the fourth year in a row, fired coach
Rex Ryan and GM John Idzik.
Ryan was 46–50 in six seasons with
four postseason wins and back-to-back
AFC Championship Game appearances.
He and Idzik were together the last two
years. … In Chicago, coach Marc Trestman
was fired after just two seasons, and GM Phil
Emery is gone after three seasons. The Bears have not
made the postseason in four years. … Fired early in the season was Dennis Allen
in Oakland. Tony Sparano was named the interim coach, and it's still up in the air
whether the interim will be dropped and he will remain or he will be dropped altogether. The same goes for GM Reggie McKenzie. The Raiders are rumored to be
eyeing Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio. … On the bright side, New York
Giants two-time Super Bowl-winning coach Tom Coughlin is expected to return in
2015 despite going 13–19 the last two seasons.
The Colts closed the season with a win, as expected,
against lowly Tennessee, and were winners of five of
their last six. However only one was against a team
with a winning record (Houston), and their last win
against a playoff team was in Week 7. Against? These
Bengals. This is a rematch of a 27–0 Indianapolis
shutout against visiting Cincinnati. The Bengals are
8–2 since, going 2–2 against playoff teams.
Lions (11–5) at Cowboys (12–4)
Detroit has another association with 0–16 as it heads
to Dallas. Six years removed from the winless 2008
campaign, the Lions have a quarterback in Matthew
Stafford who arrives in the Lone Star State 0–16 on
the road against teams with a winning record. And
with defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh being suspended for the game after stepping on Green Bay’s
Aaron Rodgers' leg last week, it will be even more
difficult for the Lions to win on the road.

Titans must decide if Mettenberger can be their QB
BY TERESA M. WALKER
Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —
Zach Mettenberger thinks
he is the answer to the
Tennessee Titans’ quarterback problem, not Marcus Mariota or Jameis
Winston.
The Titans have four
months to decide if they
agree before going on
the clock with the second
overall pick in the 2015
draft.
“It’s an important decision for us, for the orga-
nization going forward,
and I think that that’s one
that we have time to make
that decision,” coach Ken
Whisenhunt said.
“We’re going to go
through that process and
look at it. I’m sure in time
we’ll come to the right
one.”
Whisenhunt wrapped
up his first year with a
2-14 record that is this
franchise’s worst since
1994. The Titans tried
one last time to see if Jake
Locker might be their
quarterback. He didn’t get
the chance to return after
his second injury in five
games before the Titans
turned to Mettenberger, a
sixth-round draft pick out
of LSU.
Mettenberger started six
games before hurting his
right, throwing shoulder,
and the season slipped
away with 10 straight losses, including 14 of the final
15.
Mettenberger finished
with 1,412 yards passing,
becoming the eighth quar-
terback to lead the Titans
in passing in eight seasons. Tennessee now has
struck out on two quarterbacks selected with a top
eight draft pick or better
since 2006.
The Titans also extended their playoff drought to
six seasons.
“We didn’t get it done,
so we’ve got work to do to
get to that point,” Whisenhunt said.
“Whenever you have a
season like we did, there’s
going to be changes.
You’re going to get better.
We’ve got work to do.
We understand that.”
Whisenhunt brought in
both a new offense and
had defensive coordinator
Ray Horton switch the Titans from a 4-3 scheme to
a 3-4.
Neither produced, with
the Titans ranking 29th in
total offense and 27th in
total defense.
They couldn’t run, scoring only six touchdowns
on the ground all season,
a franchise-low in a 16-
game season.
They also couldn’t defend against the run, ranking ahead of only Cleveland.
Titans president and
CEO Tommy Smith insists
he is sticking with general
manager Ruston Webster
and Whisenhunt despite
fans wanting both fired.
Whisenhunt knows he’s
on the clock.
“It better get better than
this, or you’ll be talking to
somebody else next year,”
Whisenhunt said.

TCU crushes Ole Miss in Peach
BY CHARLES ODUM
AP Sports Writer
ATLANTA — Bo Wallace
spent far too much of his final
game on his back, courtesy of
the TCU pass rush.
Wallace threw three interceptions and was sacked five
times as No. 9 Mississippi
was overwhelmed in its 42-3
loss to No. 6 TCU in the Peach
Bowl on Wednesday.
Wallace leaves Ole Miss
with career records for total yards, plays, 300-yards
games and completion percentage. He also leaves with
the sting of a loss in which the
Rebels were held to 9 yards
rushing and 129 total yards.
“It’s pretty obvious that
I didn’t want to go out this
way,” Wallace said. “I didn’t
want the seniors to go out this
way. Really, we had a chance
to help next year’s team in the
preseason rankings and that
was important to me.”
Ole Miss (9-4) couldn’t
keep pace with the Horned
Frogs, who rode three touchdown passes from Trevone
Boykin and a dominant defense to the lopsided win.
Wallace and the Rebels had
a poor start and never recovered.
On the third play of the
game, Wallace’s pass over
the middle was intercepted
by Chris Hackett. Two plays
later, TCU led 7-0.
The rout was on.
With 2 minutes remaining
in the half, Wallace tried to
avoid a safety when he threw a
short desperation pass in the
end zone. The ball was caught
by TCU defensive end James
McFarland for a touchdown
and a 28-0 halftime lead.
“The first half was like a
straight punch in the mouth,”
said Ole Miss tight end Evan
Engram.
Ole Miss ranked first in
the nation with its average
of only 13.8 points allowed.
Turnovers and TCU’s quickstrike offense were too much
to overcome.
Wallace completed only
10 of 23 passes for 109 yards
with three interceptions.
The Rebels avoided the
shutout when Gary Wun-
derlich kicked a 27-yard field
goal with 7:18 remaining.
Josh Doctson had two
touchdown catches and Aaron Green ran for a score and
added a touchdown reception
for the Horned Frogs (12-1).
“We showed Atlanta, the
crowd and everyone that we
deserve to be in the playoffs
competing for the national
championship,” said receiver
Kolby Listenbee, who threw
a touchdown pass and had a
scoring catch.
Ole Miss lost four of its last
six games.
TCU looked like a championship contender to Ole Miss
coach Hugh Freeze.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. —
Trapped behind the line of
scrimmage, Georgia Tech
quarterback Justin Thomas
escaped by veering sharply
and upfield, leaving a defender flailing and Yellow Jackets
fans cheering another touchdown.
Thomas and his teammates
were tough to tackle Wednesday night in the Orange Bowl,
rolling up 452 yards rushing
to beat Mississippi State 4934.
Thomas ran for 121 yards
and three touchdowns, and
threw for 125 yards and a
score. Synjyn Days ran for
171 yards and three scores,
including a 69-yarder that
defused Mississippi State’s
comeback bid.
No. 10 Georgia Tech (11-3)
earned its first Orange Bowl
victory in 63 years. The Yellow Jackets improved to 2-8
in bowl games in the past 10
seasons.
“Our program took a step
forward this year,” Thomas
said, “and we’re planning to
keep striving to put Georgia
Tech’s name on the top of the
list.”
No. 8 Mississippi State (103) lost three of its final four
games after being ranked No.
1 for five consecutive weeks.
Mississippi State’s Dak
Prescott threw for 453 yards,
an Orange Bowl record and a
career high. Mississippi State
outgained Georgia Tech 605577, and the two-team total
was an Orange Bowl record,
but the Bulldogs twice lost the
ball on downs in the second
half, and two onside kick attempts failed.
Mississippi State scored
on a 42-yard Hail Mary on
the final play of the first half
to trail 21-20, but the Yellow
Jackets were unfazed, bouncing back with touchdowns on
their first four possessions of
the second half to lead 42-20.
“We talked about it at halftime — if we scored every time
in the second half, we couldn’t
lose, because we were ahead,”
Tech coach Paul Johnson
said.
Georgia Tech ran its triple
option with uncharacteristic balance in the first half,
when Thomas threw 10 times
for 125 yards. But the nation’s second-ranked rushing
offense revved it up in the
third quarter, when the Yellow Jackets pulled away by
gaining 208 yards, all on the
ground.
The Yellow Jackets’ rushing total was an Orange Bowl
record.
Thomas was chosen the
game’s outstanding player.
Georgia Tech senior Darren
Waller had a career-high 114
yards on five catches.
Bama benchwarmer has chance at another ring
BY BRETT MARTEL
Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Remove
Alabama receiver Daniel Geddes’ crimson No. 37 jersey,
and it would be difficult to distinguish him from any other
student on campus.
Yet on the Crimson Tide
football team he stands out —
if you can even find his 5-foot6, 165-pound frame among
the hulking players who com-
prise the bulk of ‘Bama’s roster.
Geddes, who received his
masters in sports management earlier this month, is
completing his third season
on Alabama’s roster and has
not played a single down. He
has a maximum of two games
left, starting with Thursday
night’s national semifinal in
the Sugar Bowl against Ohio
State, followed possibly by the
national title game in Dallas.
He doesn’t expect to play in
those, either, but doesn’t regret a second spent pushing
his limits in the weight room
or running himself ragged on
the practice field.
At the very least, he’ll always be able to say he was
yelled at by coach Nick Saban,
which he “absolutely” qualifies as an authentic Alabama
experience.
The last time he was scolded by Saban, he’d improperly
mimicked an upcoming opponent’s pass route against the
first-team defense.
“It’s nothing personal. Everyone can get that any day,”
he said with a smile as he
stood on the Superdome turf
during Sugar Bowl media day
this week. “I try not to get too

Meyer’s goal of SEC North gets tested in Big Easy
BY PAUL NEWBERRY
Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — When
Urban Meyer got back into
coaching at Ohio State, he
made it clear what kind of
program he wanted to build.
SEC North.
Well, he’ll get a chance to
see just how that plan is going
when the Buckeyes take on
the Southeastern Conference
powerhouse everyone wants
to emulate.
Top-ranked Alabama (121) will meet No. 5 Ohio State
(12-1) in the Sugar Bowl tonight, a semifinal game in
college football’s new playoff
system. The winner advances
to the Jan. 12 national championship game against either Florida State or Oregon,
which play in the other semifinal at the Rose Bowl.
The Crimson Tide is going
for its fourth national championship in six seasons, a
stunning run of dominance in
what is supposed to be an era
of increased parity.
“You can have that oneshot wonder, that one-year
wonder, that one year where
everything goes right,” Meyer
marveled at the final Sugar Bowl news conference
Wednesday. “But to have
it year after year, that’s the
model that people look for.”
No one does it better than
Nick Saban and the Tide, who
have gone 84-10 over the last
seven seasons. Alabama captured national titles in 2009,
2011 and 2012 and came ohso-close to winning it all two
other years.

sensitive about it because even his assistant
coaches get that.”
Geddes was born in
Germany, the son of military parents, Patrick and
Mary, who are both Tuscaloosa natives and avid
Crimson Tide fans. They
brought up their son on
stories about Alabama’s
glory days under coach
Paul “Bear” Bryant.
The family returned to
Tuscaloosa when Geddes
was 8. He loved Alabama
games, which he usually
watched on TV.
“Every once in a while
we were able to pull off
some tickets,” Geddes
recalled.
In high school he was
a backup running back,
a defensive back, kicker
and punter. He said he
might have carried the
ball three times for 15
yards as a senior.
He enrolled in Alabama in 2010 and sought
to walk on to the football
team, but was cut after
fall camp. The same in
2011.
Once more, he tried,
in 2012. That season
he wound up with a national
championship
ring and memories that
formed the basis of a
speech he later delivered
to the team.
“I
remember
the
excitement
flowing
through my veins and
how blessed I felt to be
there” for Alabama’s BCS
title triumph over Notre
Dame in Miami, Geddes
recalled telling his teammates. “It’s a feeling that
you cannot purchase.”
Though Geddes is
even smaller than kicker Adam Griffith (5-10,
188), some of Alabama’s
biggest stars haven taken
notice of his work ethic.
Receiver Amari Cooper,
a Heisman Trophy finalist, calls Geddes “an inspiration.”
“Just aside from football, he’s a great person.
I get a chance to talk to
him and every time I
learn something,” Cooper said. “When we run
(sprints) and things like
that in the offseason, he
works really hard, works
really hard in the weight
room. ... He makes me
want to better myself.”
Cooper, in turn, works
with Geddes on his
route-running, from his
footwork to his hand
placement.
“To have that kind of
athlete telling me how
to do my job better, to
make the defense better,
is just too cool,” Geddes
said.
The previous two seasons Geddes was a scout
team defensive back and
had to cover Cooper in
practice.
“There’s plenty of film
out there of him making me look just awful,”
said Geddes, adding that
seeing Cooper do similar things to opponents’
first-team
defensive
backs “makes me feel a
lot better.”
against, the Tide broke
out a helmet with the
number 15 — symbolizing the number of national titles the school
claims to have won — for
its photo ops leading up
to the game.
It was there again
Wednesday, propped on
the dais as Meyer and
Saban posed for pictures
with the Sugar Bowl trophy.
“Our entire staff and
all of our players have responded very well to the
standard that we try to
set for the way we want
things to be done and
how they need to be done
so you can have success,”
Saban said, methodically
explaining the success
of a program that seems
to be on championship
auto-drive.
Some of those 15
championships are highly suspect, most notably
the 1973 team that lost
to Notre Dame in the
Sugar Bowl. But even
when limiting the count
to The Associated Press
poll, Alabama still has
more titles (nine) than
any other school.
The formula hasn’t
changed much over the
years: recruit the best
players, put a system
in place that makes it
clear what is expected of
them, and work harder
than everyone else.
The 63-year-old Saban
has turned to parables
to drive home that last
point, even if they’re a
bit mystifying to players
young enough to be his
grandchildren.
“He once told the team
something about this, I
don’t know, a rock hitter
or something like that,”
receiver Amari Cooper said. “I don’t know
what the guy was hitting
a rock for. But he said
the guy hit the rock 100
times and the rock didn’t
do anything. The 101st
time he hit it and the
rock split.”
The point being?
“Even though you may
be working hard and
might not be seeing the
results so quick, we have
to keep working hard,”
Cooper said, “At the end
of the day, all the results
will come from your
hard work.”

“TCU is a very good
team,” Freeze said. “They

to pick the four. They
certainly could compete
with any of the four in
it, there’s no question in
my mind.”
The action was as lopsided as the score. TCU
finished with 423 yards
in the biggest margin of
victory in Peach Bowl
history.
Freeze said the loss
was especially painful to
the Ole Miss seniors.
“I got to go around

they’re hurting today is
not much fun,” Freeze
said.

The Rebels finally

running back Jordan

Ole Miss left tackle Laremy Tunsil, an all-SEC

BY RALPH D. RUSSO
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — For
years, college football fans
pleaded for a playoff. Now
it’s here and it starts at
the sport’s most hallowed
venue, with two Heisman
Trophy winners and the
defending national champions.
Welcome to the College
Football Playoff at the
Rose Bowl, where the past
and present intersect to
usher in a new era.
Marcus Mariota and second-seeded Oregon (12-1)
face Jameis Winston and
third-seeded Florida State
(13-0) on Thursday in the
first national semifinal
ever played at college football’s highest level.
Ducks coach Mark Helfrich and Seminoles coach
Jimbo Fisher held their
final news conferences
Wednesday at a downtown Los Angeles hotel.
They posed for pictures
with the Rose Bowl trophy, shook hands and
went their separate ways.
“We’re looking forward
to the challenge,” Fisher
said. “We know it’s a heck
of a challenge. They’ve got
a great team. We’ve got a
great team. It ought to be
fun.”
Next stop, Pasadena.
But it’s not the last stop.
The winner gets a trip to
Texas to play either Alabama or Ohio State on
Jan. 12 for the national
championship.
The Seminoles bring in
a 29-game winning streak
and last year’s Heisman
winner, Winston, into its
second straight trip to the
Rose Bowl. Florida State
won national championship there last season,
beating Auburn 34-31 in
the last BCS title game.
The Ducks are led by
this year’s Heisman winner, Mariota, and are in
search of their first national championship. Oregon is a relative newcomer
among college football
powerhouses. The only
thing left for the Ducks
to confirm their status as
a member of the nation’s
elite is a national title.
“It would validate things
externally a lot more than
Boise State surprises Arizona
with blandness in Fiesta Bowl
Associated Press
GLENDALE, Ariz. —
The Boise State Broncos
are no longer just trickplay ponies.
They did score a touchdown on a Statue of Liberty play. This was the
Fiesta Bowl, so of course
they did.
But once the tricks
were used up and the offensive fireworks dulled,
Boise State had to grind
out this Fiesta Bowl victory with its defense.
Donte Deayon returned an interception
for a touchdown in third
quarter and sack specialist Kamalei Correa had
his biggest takedown of
the season on the game’s
final play, lifting No. 21
Boise State to a 38-30
victory over No. 12 Arizona in the Fiesta Bowl
on Wednesday.
“They hit us, we stiffened up and came up a
winner,” Boise State linebacker Tanner Vallejo
said.
Boise State (12-2) lived
up to its unpredictable
reputation in the first
quarter, pulling off the
Statue of Liberty play
while racing to a 21-0
lead in the opening 10
minutes.
Jay Ajayi scored two
of his three touchdowns
in the first quarter — one
on the trick play — and
finished with 134 yards
rushing. Grant Hedrick
was perfect through
his first 14 passes and
threw for 304 yards and
a touchdown. Thomas
Sperbeck had 12 catches
for 199 yards.
The bulk of those numbers came in the first
half, though. Once the
second rolled around,
the Broncos bogged
down, allowing Arizona
to cut the lead to eight in
the fourth quarter.
The Wildcats had a final chance, using their
quick-strike offense to
march down the field,
but Correa sacked Anu
Solomon at Boise State’s
10-yard on the game’s
last play.
The Broncos charged
onto the field after Correa’s sack, celebrating a
successful first season
under coach Bryan Harsin with their third Fiesta
Bowl victory.
Not bad for a team
supposedly in transition.
“People think Boise
State isn’t a powerhouse
program,” said Broncos
receiver Chaz Anderson, who had a 57-yard
touchdown catch in the
first quarter. “It feels
good to be back to where
we were in the past.”
Arizona (10-4) was
overrun by Oregon in the
Pac-12
Championship
and seemed to still have
a hangover against the
Broncos.
Once the Wildcats
shook out of their daze,
they shut down Boise
State’s
high-powered
offense and began chipping away at the lead.
The problem was that
they needed to take bigger chunks.
Instead of scoring
touchdowns,
Arizona
mostly dinked its way
back, settling for three
field goals after driving
deep into Boise State’s
end.
Turnovers also hurt.
Solomon threw for 335
yards and a touchdown,
but had two interceptions that led to touchdowns for Boise State,
including Deayon’s pick
six late in the third quarter.
“Everything wasn’t going our way,” the redshirt
freshman said. “I was
overthinking things and I
just can’t do that. I played
like a freshman today.”
Boise State led 31-17 at
halftime.
I think internally,” Helfrich said.
When we last saw Oregon playing, the Ducks
played their best game of
the season, winning the
Pac-12 championship with
a 51-13 beating of Arizona.
Mariota had all but
locked up the Heisman
Trophy by then, but he
added an exclamation
point against the Wildcats and ended up being a
landslide winner. The Hawaii native has accounted
for 53 touchdowns (38
passing, 14 rushing and
one receiving) and is the
top-rated passer in the
country.
“I think he’s been an
amazing guy and amazing
player,” Winston said.
Moore leads
Vols to win
over ETSU
Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. —
Armani Moore had 13
points, 12 rebounds and
seven assists Wednesday as Tennessee rallied
to beat East Tennessee
State 71-61 for its fourth
straight victory.
ETSU (6-4) scored the
game’s first 13 points and
had a six-point lead early
in the second half before
Tennessee (8-4) took
over.
The Buccaneers scored
just two points and had
no baskets during an 8½
minute stretch in the second half.
Josh Richardson had
19 points and six assists
for Tennessee. Derek
Reese matched a careerhigh with 12 points and
made a go-ahead basket
with 7:50 remaining as
part of a 12-0 run.
ETSU’s Rashawn Rembert had 21 points and
went 7 of 11 from 3-point
range but attempted only
one shot in the game’s
final 19 minutes, 27 seconds.
Moore was three assists
away from joining Tyler
Smith as the only Volunteers to post a triple-double in school history.
