Department's 2015 Operation Spring

against them. The following were ar-
rested: Lakeysha Stephens, Diane

All about recovery...
By PAYTON TOWNS III
The cheering could be heard
from outside the building as
those attending the Making
Magic in Middle Georgia Recovery Symposium supported those
who were telling their stories.
The symposium, which was
held in the First Baptist Church
Family Life Center Friday, gave
people a chance to tell their success stories about overcoming
their set backs with drugs or
other issues. This was the first
program through the Georgia
Recovery initiative.
"The stories are phenomenal," said Denise Forbes, CEO
of Community Mental Health.
"It's nice to get away from the
office and come to a nice setting
like we have here at First Baptist Church. We've had 245 people sign in. We have folks from
all across the middle Georgia
area and they are trying to find
ways to connect, get information
and resources to help our community in the need for recovery."
Brent Hoskinson was first to
talk about his success story. He
told the audience that this area
has a lot of good things going on.
"If we want things to keep
working in the community, we
need to keep working for recovery," Hoskinson said. "We don't
need people. We just need people to work and help with recovery. We have a huge resource
here in Georgia."
Hoskinson thanked the law
enforcement officials in the
room for their help.
"It's important to have people like law enforcement to
come to events like this," he
said. "Thank you for being
here."
Hoskinson pointed out why
people were at the symposium.
- To develop local resources
and leadership to recovery-focused initiatives.
- To develop learning commu-

Wells, who was arrested for possession
of marijuana, giving false information
and a state probation violation, and
Christopher Wright, who was charged
with probation violation and obstruction of an officer, were also arrested.
Pauldo said others people were

probation and were released.
Chief Wayne Cain said operations
like this will happen again.
"Unless people want their names
on a list, they need to contact their
probation officer," Cain said. "I'd like
to commend Sgt. Brenda Pauldo and
Lt. Ronnie Holmes and the Special
Services Division officers for this oper-

ation, along with all of the other officers who assisted."
Pauldo said the East Dublin Police
Department also assisted in executing
warrants in East Dublin.
Cain also thanked the Laurens
County Jail staff for taking on the additional workload the operation put on
them and the 911 center for their help.

- To develop local awareness of recovery

"This is a passion for me," Hoskinson said.
"Please help people. I hope you'll stayed connected with others and continue to be champions in your local community. … We've got to
continue to work."

JEFFERSONVILLE — The incident report
concerning allegations surrounding improper
actions by a Twiggs County teacher show the
accusations to be of a possible felony.
Obtained Friday afternoon, the report goes
on to say that three different students made
allegations according to Twiggs County High
School Resource Officer Earl Waller.
"(Waller) was notified by Twiggs County
High School principal that three female students had made allegations, sexual in nature,
concerning a Twiggs County High School
teacher," according to the report, originally
filed March 23. "The incident was reported to
DFACS, The Twiggs County Sheriff's Office
and the GBI.
"The teacher was placed on administrative
suspension pending investigation. As of now,
the case is still open and being investigated by
the Twiggs County High School Campus police
Department, Twiggs County Sheriff's Office
and the GBI.
Waller said "We take these kind of allegations very seriously, and we're going to thoroughly investigate. The Twiggs County BOE
has been cooperating fully and giving us
everything we've asked for."
Neither the name of the teacher, nor those
of the students were included.
This information comes four days after the
Twiggs County BOE accepted the resignation
of boys head basketball coach Fred Baker, and
the GBI released a statement on the incident
that they were lead investigators of the alleged crimes.

Sword-wielding
man shot after
attacking deputy
NAVARRE, Fla. (AP) — A
samurai sword-wielding man
was fatally shot by police
Thursday after threatening
family members with knives
and attacking a sheriff's
deputy with the sword, authorities said.
According to the Santa
Rosa County Sheriff's Office,
the mother of Gordon Talmage
Kimbrell Jr. called 911 Thursday night to report that her
22-year-old son was acting violently after drinking a halfbottle of rum. Relatives said
he threw knives at them in the
Navarre, Florida, home about
22 miles east of Pensacola.
When another person tried
to calm Kimbrell, he came toward the person with knives,
forcing that person retreat into a bedroom, the report says.
Kimbrell stabbed the door and
then went outside with the
sword.
When deputies arrived,
they found Kimbrell in the
street waving the sword. They
told him to drop the sword several times and tried to subdue
him with a non-lethal gun that
fires bean bags at high speed,
but Kimbrell hit Deputy Matt
Ray with the sword several
times, Deputy Richard Aloy
said in a news release. To protect Ray, Sgt. Brian Miller
then shot Kimbrell, killing
him, Aloy said.
Ray was listed in good condition Friday.
King was placed on administrative leave while the Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigates the
case.

Former Florida coach, AD
Ray Graves dies at 96
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP)
— Former Florida coach and
athletic director Ray Graves,
who helped the Gators reach
national prominence in the
1960s, died Friday at 96.
The school said Graves died
in the Tampa area. Former
Florida coach and current
South Carolina coach Steve
Spurrier, who won the 1966
Heisman Trophy when Graves
coached the team, called him a
"tremendous influence."
"After my mother and dad,
Coach Graves had the biggest
influence on my life," Spurrier
said. 'I am so thankful for
him."
Spurrier spoke to Graves
on Thursday and "had a
chance to tell him I love him,
and I sincerely thank him for
the influence he had on me."
Florida went 70-31-4 in 10
seasons under Graves, including a 9-1-1 mark in 1969.
Graves spent the next 20
years as the school's athletic
director, helping usher in the
Title IX era and creating plans
to build the O'Connell Center.
"You can't put into words
what he has meant to the
Gator Nation and the countless lives he has touched from
his players, coaches, friends
and family," Florida athletic
director Jeremy Foley said.
"Like many others, I was fortunate to have a personal relationship with him and will be
forever grateful for our time
together."
Graves played football at
Tennessee, where he was team
captain in 1941. After a brief
stint with the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles, Graves embarked
on a coaching career in 1944
at his alma mater.

He later spent 13 seasons
at Georgia Tech, working under coach Bobby Dodd before
Florida hired him as 14th football coach in school history in
January 1960.
Graves instantly made an
impact, leading the Gators to
a 9-2 record in his first season
and a Gator Bowl victory over
Baylor. In one of the most
memorable wins of his career,
Graves defeated Dodd and
Georgia Tech 18-17 in only his
third game as Florida's coach.
Graves was inducted into
the College Football Hall of
Fame in 1990.
After stepping down as Florida's athletic director in January 1979, Graves served as a
consultant for Steinbrenner
Enterprises in Tampa and for
the Jacksonville Bulls of the
United
States
Football
League.
He retired in 1989 and
lived in the Tampa Bay area.
Graves is survived by his
wife Opal Richardson and
three daughters.

More than 200 people attended the symposium.
Continued from 1a
had from the animals.
"She saw people spraying air
fresheners after she left the
room," Gregory said. "It hurt
her feelings."
Spivey was placed in a care
home in 2012.
"They love (her) and she
loves them," Gregory said.
"(Spivey) is more sociable now."
Spivey isn't as depressed as
she once was.
"(Spivey) calls her story a
Cinderella story," Gregory said.
"No there is no prince or glass
slipper. But it's still a Cinderella story (to her). (Spivey) has
self respect and dignity. (She's)
not afraid to be around people."
Mat Rainey began his story
by telling everyone his mother
died when he was five.
"I took that really hard,"
Rainey said.
Rainey was raised by his
grandparents. He said they didn't know how to deal with the
loss of his mother, their daughter. He was taken to a doctor
and prescribed ritalin.
When Rainey was 17, his
grandfather died.
"He was my hero," Rainey
said. "I wasn't sleeping well and
couldn't focus in school."
Eventually Rainey was hospitalized. He quit school. Later
he went to Community Mental
Health in Dublin. He found a
program for people like himself.
"I didn't feel like I had a mental illness," Rainey said.
He got help, and eventually
decided to get his GED. He then
wanted to give back.
He started working as a Peer
Specialist and now he works
with the Community Support
team.
"I think of where I came from
and the people we were able to
help," Rainey said. "It's really
awesome to give back. It's been
very rewarding."
Penny Ranger had a picture
of her newspaper mug shot on
the screen while she talked.
"You would think that would
make me stop (drinking) after
that," she said. "I was raised to
believe if you drank beer you
would not be an alcoholic."
Ranger began drinking when
she was 15, just to fit in. Fifteen
years later she got treatment
and was sober for 10 years.
"I started drinking again
when my children left home,"
she said. ‘For three years I
drank. I almost died."
Her boyfriend, now husband,
made her get help. This would
lead to seven sober years before
she went to a psychologist and
began taking pills. She would
soon take the pills and drink.
After going for treatment,
she planned to commit suicide.
Instead, she went to another organization for help. Ranger
wound up leaving that and went
to jail.
"Honestly, I had given up,"
she said. "I didn't think it was
going get any better."
She wound up at Abundant
Superior Pools
278-6968
Liner Replacements &
Weekly Maintenance
Life and stayed there for six
months.
"I've never used again,"
Ranger said. "I now get to help
people with substance abuse
problems. I get to see these people come in broken and help
them."
Lisa Clark didn't believe her
story was unique. Her entire life
had put her around drugs and
alcohol. Until she was 35, her
life was filled with abuse.
"I was always told I was useless," Clark said. "I woke up and
thought it had to be better. …
There comes a time when you
get tired of the police knocking
on our door or DFCS telling you
what to do."
She recalled going into Community Mental Health.
"They have been with me
every step of the way," Clark
said.
She stayed at Abundant Life
for a long time. Most of that was
because she knew she would die
if she got out.
"I use my story to help somebody else," Clark said. "The
same program that saved my
life is still working."
Currently, Clark is the next
home owner for Dublin-Laurens
County Habitat House No. 35.
"If you are here and not getting high, you are a miracle,"
Clark said.
Elizabeth Button’s father
was in the military. When she
was nine, she got picked on by a
bigger girl in her neighborhood.
"I thought since I can't hurt
her, I'd just hurt myself," Button
said. "At 13 I thought my life
was over and tried to kill myself."
After getting help from a hospital, Button got addicted to
drugs. After getting her GED,
and getting married, Button
went to Community Mental
Health. She would find out
about a position in the Peer
Support Program.
"I got so much help by helping others who were recovering
too," she said.
Mary Beth Soto, who is a recovering methamphetamine addict, said she's been clean since
2004.
"I thought everybody else
had a problem," Soto said. "I
knew I was going to prison because I had a problem."
The addiction took her son,
husband and family.
"I was going to jail all the
time," Soto said.
Once in jail, a woman told
her about Promise of Hope.
"What I learned was that I
had a disease," Soto said. "I
thought I was a bad person …
and I was going to burn in Hell.
I started learning about the disease. I wanted to get better.
… By the grace of God I have
been clean for more than 10
years. It's a big deal to me. I
have a son and something to live
for."
She now works at Promise of
Hope.
"God has really blessed me
for more than I deserve," Soto
said.
Peri Kyriacos was the final
success story. She said a friend
had been praying for her before
Kyriacos began a 12-step program in Statesboro.
"I got recovery and I wanted
other people to have it too," Kyriacos said. "I learned about this
whole recovery thing but I didn't
want others to know that I was
a recoverer."
Eventually, Kyriacos learned
to be proud of her recovery.
"My daughter said she was
proud of me," Kyriacos said.
"What I've learned is you need
to be an advocate."
Sherry Jenkins-Tucker, executive director of the Georgia
Mental Health Consumer Network, was the keynote speaker
of the event.
"I'm the evidence that recovery works," Jenkins-Tucker
said. "It's important to share
with you. I'm a giant science experiment in recovery."
She used to live in the back of
an Oldsmobile.
"I didn't have any future,"
Jenkins-Tucker said. "It was a
desperate situation and desperate times. Life has been kind to
me since being introduced to recovery."
Jenkins-Tucker
admitted
that things have changed with
recovery. It used to be people
were given pills.
"We have moved to a brave
new world," she said. "I have a
recovery path. Some days I'm
running on the recovery path or
sitting on the side of the path.
Sometimes I'm face down on the
recovery path. … There is a lot
of hard work with recovery.
"Magic is what we all make,"
Jenkins-Tucker added. "We
share this work together."
After lunch, Mike Fuller, the
Magician, took the stage for entertainment. Fuller, who is also
a meteorologist, amazed the
crowd with the magic he performed, ending in a magic trick
that showcased Basil the Baffling Bunny.
"I hope it was light and fun,"
Fuller said. "I was proud I was
asked to be the entertainment.
Their stories are magic. I hope
they had fun and I took their
minds off their troubles for a little while."

Continued from 1a
second place awards and one
earned third place honors.
The competition included
program areas such as: Architecture,
Construction,
Communication, Transportation, Culinary Arts, Personal
Care Services and Public
Safety. Each of the contests
were framed around industry
standards and were designed
and judged by business partners, according to Georgia
Department of Education
spokesman Matt Cardoza.
SkillsUSA is a national,
nonprofit organization that
empowers students to become world-class workers,
leaders, and responsible citizens. SkillsUSA Georgia is
the Career and Technical
Student Organization for
students enrolled in Architecture, Construction, Communication and Transportation
(ACCT), Cosmetology, and
Public Safety Pathways in
Georgia’s secondary schools.
“Through SkillsUSA, students learn skills that prepare them for the future and
help them discover careers
they love,” State School Superintendent Richard Woods
said. “As we work to personalize education for all students,
opportunities
for
hands-on career exploration
could not be more important.
I congratulate these student
winners and commend every
student who participated.”
Tyler Lowe claimed first
place for his Health Occupations Professional Portfolio,
while the team of Meredith
Cutler, Daphine Ford and
Alexis Lawson earned first
place honors in the School
Project contest.
Eve Pike, Morgan Marcin,
Elaina Snow, Terrie Wilkes,
Christopher
Rutledge,
Kendra
Delgado
and
Jonathan
Haygood
each
earned second place awards
for a variety of contests,
while Kailee Marion was
awarded third place in the
First Aid-CPR contest.
"We are extremely proud
of our students and their
showing at state competition," said Dean Cutler, SkillsUSA coordinator and Construction Technology Instructor. "Moreover, though, we
are proud of the dedication
and time that the students
spent preparing for both region and state competition.
They represented the school
and the local chapter with
dignity and pride.
"The 2015 theme for SkillsUSA is '50 Years of Champions at Work.' Truly, our students are champions. Their
dedication and work ethic
contribute to supporting this
theme."
Cutler added that SkillsUSA is one of many programs in place at East Laurens designed to prepare students for the "real world."
"At ELHS, we work diligently to prepare students
for the 'real world' after high
school," Cutler said. "All of
the SkillsUSA competitions
do just that...allow the students to hone the skills they
learn at school in a realworld application. Whether it
is prepared speech, laying
brick, electrical wiring, or designing a career pathway
health science project, the
students are preparing to become work-ready. At ELHS,
through the local chapter, we
live the SkillsUSA motto:
'Preparing for leadership in
the world of work.”

OFFICIAL
DELEGATION OF PTA TO CONVENTION
The official delegation from
the PTA schools of the city to
the State PTA Convention in
Macon last week was composed
of Mesdames R.L. Tindol, Will
Alsup, Jeff Proctor, T.H. Green,
T.A. Curry, Viola Neal, G.C. Ingram, Knox Walker and Herschel Whitehurst.
They report having had a
most interesting and profitable
meeting.
DUBLIN
LEDGER
MAKES ITS APPEARANCE
The DUBLIN LEDGER
makes its appearance today.
Every night this week men
have been setting type for it on
the COURIER - HERALD linotype, so it will probably be a big
paper as well as a good one.
Now that Dublin can boast of
two papers, the COURIER HERALD and the DUBLIN
LEDGER, the citizens should
wake up and take a civic interest and pride in the fact and realize that the papers are always ready to back all worthwhile projects for the development of Dublin. They teach
thrift and help promote all important topics of the day that
contribute to its prosperity and
growth; they give the public
amusement and improving
topics to think about and guide
the public in the matter of finding right places for the right
article of merchandise.
Newspapers are the backbone of a city because first, last
and always, they boost the
home city using straightforward, practical methods. They
are the great market place
where business houses offer
their service and merchandise,
and, of course, all of the important topics of the day are presented to the public through
them.
TINY TOTS RIDE 20
MILES TO GET DIPHTHERIA SHOT
Dr. O.H. Cheek, Laurens
County Health Officer, was
kept busy today administering
the second dose of diphtheria
serum to Laurens County children. A fine per cent of those
taking the first shot last week
were on hand today for their
second dose, he said.
Also, a truck load of children was noticed in the street.
The mother of one of the little
fellows in the truck said that
there were 15 children who
had come in the truck from below Cadwell - about 20 miles
from Dublin.
WILMER PETERS TO
SPEAK IN ATLANTA
Wilmer Peters, Dublin High
School student, is the representative of the Twelfth District in the State Oratorical
Contest and will speak in Atlanta on Saturday afternoon in
the chamber of the House of
Representatives before the
state judges, who are John M.
Slaton, former Governor of
Georgia; Dr. Harvey M. Cox,
President of Emory University;
and Mell Wilkerson, President
of the Presidents Club of Atlanta.
Wilmer is an unusually talented speaker, and with the
splendid training he has had it
is predicted that he will be the
successful contestant. His subject is "The Citizen: His Privileges and Duties." After the
several speakers have delivered their orations, each one
will be given a subject on which
he will immediately deliver a
four-minute extemporaneous
speech.
Dublin School Superintendent Knox Walker and Miss
Edna West, Director of Dramatics at the high school, will
accompany him to Atlanta.
MRS. PARKER DIES AT
HER HOME ON JEFFERSON STREET
The death of Mrs. Charlie
Parker, while not entirely unexpected, comes as a shock to
her host of friends and relatives here and in various
states. She had been ill for
about a year, but was not considered seriously ill until about
two weeks ago when she began
losing ground in her fight
against ill health. She died
yesterday at her home on Jefferson Street. She was 49 years
of age and a member of Bethsaida Baptist Church, where
she was known and greatly
loved by all of her fellow members. She led an upright, honorable life, endearing herself in
the hearts of all who knew her.
Surviving her are her husband, Mr. C.F. Parker, and ten
children: Albert, John, Wilbur,
and Harry, all of Dublin; H. F.
of Coscicana, Texas; Mrs. Ira
Horton, Mrs. Clarence Devereaux, Miss Iris Parker, and
Miss Avis Parker, all of Dublin;
and Miss Lucille Parker of
Long Island, New York.

POLICE CHIEF DECLINES TO GIVE SUICIDE
NEWS
Persistent rumors that a
prominent banker of Statesboro had attempted to commit
suicide induced the COURIER
- HERALD to have the report
confirmed by the police of that
city, but without success. In response to a telegram sent to
the Chief of Police S.A. Prosser,
the following telegram was received today, "Details of suicide
attempt and banking trouble
request cannot be furnished.

rens County needs is fairly well
illustrated by the example set
by Mr. John Wolfe. He is modest, and the information in this
article required a great deal of
questioning before he let it out,
and the writer never did find
out where he lives. That is not
so important,but but the way he
raises O-Too-Tan hay and oats
is. He has just sold six tons of OToo-Tan hay at $25 per ton. He
had an average yield of three
tons to the acre. This is a lot of
hay, but he could have sold
more but had to turn down an
order for two carloads.
But hay is not all. The hay
crop followed immediately after
an oat crop which brought him
$37.50 per acre, his yield being
about 30 bushels to the acre. He
says that he can raise fine hay
without any fertilizer.
Laurens County needs more
farmers like this.

YOUNG PEOPLE'S SERVICE MOST IMPRESSIVE
OF REVIVAL
The young people's service
last night at the Centenary
Methodist Church was considered by many as the very best
service of the entire series. Half
of the entire house was filled
with young people, greatly over
running the section reserved for
them. Their section had been
decorated in the Epworth
League colors since the service
was being sponsored by them as
they furnished greeters and
ushers.
The sermon was based on
the words of Mordecai to Esther, "Who knoweth but thou
art come to the kingdom for
such a time as this?" The response to this challenge led to
more than 50 young people
crowding around the altar at
the close of the message as an
expression of their loyalty to Jesus
Christ.
After the benediction, several
made application to the pastor
for membership in the Church.
Only two more nights remain of the revival campaign,
evangelist Lovein leaving for
his next meeting at Lebanon,
Tenn., at the close of Friday
night's service.

Today is Saturday, April 11,
the 101st day of 2015. There are
264 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On April 11, 1865, President
Abraham Lincoln spoke to a
crowd outside the White House,
saying, "We meet this evening,
not in sorrow, but in gladness of
heart." (It was the last public
address Lincoln would deliver.)
On this date:
In 1689, William III and
Mary II were crowned as joint
sovereigns of Britain.
In 1713, the Treaty of
Utrecht was signed, ending the
War of the Spanish Succession.
In 1814, Napoleon Bonaparte
abdicated as Emperor of the
French and was banished to the
island of Elba. (Napoleon later
escaped from Elba and returned
to power in March 1815, until
his downfall in the Battle of Waterloo in June 1815.)
In 1899, the treaty ending
the Spanish-American War was
declared in effect.
In 1921, Iowa became the
first state to impose a cigarette
tax, at 2 cents a package.
In 1945, during World War
II, American soldiers liberated
the notorious Nazi concentration camp Buchenwald in Germany.
In 1951, President Harry S.
Truman relieved Gen. Douglas
MacArthur of his commands in
the Far East.
In 1955, the film drama
"Marty," starring Ernest Borgnine, was released by United
Artists.
In 1965, dozens of tornadoes
raked six Midwestern states on
Palm Sunday, killing 271 people.
ALMANAC
In 1970, Apollo 13, with astronauts James A. Lovell, Fred
W. Haise and Jack Swigert,
blasted off on its ill-fated mission to the moon.
In 1979, Idi Amin was deposed as president of Uganda as
rebels and exiles backed by Tanzanian
(tan-zuh-NEE'-uhn)
forces seized control.
In 1989, Mexican officials began unearthing the remains of
victims of a drug-trafficking cult
near Matamoros; one of the
dead was University of Texas
student Mark Kilroy, who had
disappeared while on spring
break. (Several cult members
were later convicted of premeditated murder and sentenced to
50 years in prison.)
Ten years ago: During a
meeting at his Texas ranch,
President George W. Bush told
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon he could not allow further West Bank settlement
growth and said Israeli and
Palestinian doubts about each
other were hampering peace
prospects. Jeffrey Ake (ayk), a
47-year-old contract worker
from LaPorte, Indiana, was abducted in Iraq. (His fate remains
unknown.) Miss North Carolina
Chelsea Cooley was crowned
Miss USA at the pageant in Baltimore.
Five years ago: Thousands of
people stood in the streets of
Poland's cities in a silent tribute
to President Lech Kaczynski
(lehk kah-CHIN'-skee) and the
other 95 people killed in a plane
crash the day before. After a
five-month hiatus, golfer Tiger
Woods tied for fourth at the
Masters, as Phil Mickelson
earned his third green jacket.

Can’t wait for them to reopen Madison Street again.
Never knew how much I
used it until they blocked it.
It sure is bad to spend all
day in an office when it is so
pretty outside. Unfortunately, it looks like it’s going to
be raining next week. That
is if the weather forecasters
are correct.
There is nothing wrong
with warm weather. I rather
sweat than be cold.
Sometimes people need
to take the time to smell the
roses. Too many people are
busy going all over the place
instead of taking advantage
of what God has blessed
them with.
To the person who said
the teacher was right to
have her opinion but not
right with the place she did
it, you are correct.
I think the board has
dealt with the DMS issue.
It’s time to move on and
leave all of the drama to
Gordon and Alamo.
Do they serve curly fries
at The Masters?
I think people are always
looking for something to
complain about. They need
to stop all that hate and
learn how to find love for
their fellow man.
It’s been a great week of
Spring Break. Now, there’s
only five or six weeks of
school left. Teachers are
counting down as much as
the students are.
What day is it? It’s Saturday. Time to party.

One year ago: President
Barack Obama, in a fiery speech
at civil rights activist Al Sharpton's National Action Network
conference, accused the GOP of
using voting restrictions to keep
voters from the polls and of jeopardizing 50 years of expanded
ballot box access for millions of
black Americans and other minorities. White House budget director Sylvia Mathews Burwell
was named by President Obama
to succeed Health and Human
Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. In a rare diplomatic rebuke, the United States blocked
Iran's controversial pick for envoy to the United Nations,
Hamid Aboutalebi, a member of
the group responsible for the
1979 takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran.

CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities
say a man wanted in the fatal shooting of taxi
driver's son in Georgia has been arrested in a
Buffalo, New York, suburb.
Police in Cheektowaga announced Thursday
that the U.S. Marshals Service tracked down
19-year-old James Black Jr. to a home in the
town last Saturday and took him into custody.
Authorities say he's wanted in connection
with the fatal shooting of 22-year old Tomas Ar-
riola Jr. on Feb. 18 in Marietta, Ga. Police say
Arriola was shot while riding in his father's
cab.
Police arrested Abdul Griffin in Powder
Springs, Georgia, on March 2 and charged him
with murder and robbery in connection with
the slaying.
Black also faces murder charges. He's being
held Friday in a Buffalo jail while awaiting extradition to Georgia.
Man wanted for slaying in Georgia
is captured in western New York

Spieth sets Masters’ record for lowest two-round score
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Jordan Spieth stepped up
for one last putt, nothing more than a tap-in really.
Suddenly, he backed away.
This one was important. It meant history.
After taking his time, Spieth knocked in a short
par putt on the 18th hole Friday to claim the 36-hole
scoring record at the Masters, breaking a mark that
has stood for nearly four decades. Raymond Floyd
reached the midway point of the 1976 Masters with
a 131 on the way to an eight-stroke victory.
Spieth did him one better, posting a 14-under
130 that has included 15 birdies and only one bogey
through the first two days.
"That's really cool," said Spieth, who shot a 6under 66 on the heels of an opening 64. "It's cool
anytime when you set a record, but to do it here is
pretty awesome."
The 21-year-old Texan was blowing away everyone in the field except Charley Hoffman, and even he
faced a rather daunting five-shot deficit after shooting 68. Normally, Hoffman's 135 at the midway point
would be good enough for the lead.
Not the way Spieth was playing.
"I feel really good this week," the leader said. "I'm
not very nervous."
Spieth gave a glimpse of his enormous potential a
year ago at Augusta, leading on the final day with a
chance to become the youngest champion in Masters
history. He faded down the stretch, settling for the
runner-up spot behind Bubba Watson but leaving no
doubt that golf had a budding new star.
Spieth arrived this year on top of his game, having won, finished second, and lost in a playoff in his
last three events before the Masters.
"Last year and the momentum from the last few
weeks, I've been kind of on my game and feeling
really good about coming to a place that I love, that
everybody loves," Spieth said.
Spieth had a 7-foot birdie try at the final hole for
a 129. He misread the break and watched it slide
past the left side of the cup on the slick Augusta
greens.
He initially went up to tap it in, standing awkwardly so he wouldn't step in the line of playing
partner Henrik Stenson, who still had a short putt of
his own.
Then, Spieth backed away, marked his ball and
waited for Stenson to finish before knocking his in
for the record.
Ernie Els, at 139, was the only other player with a
single-digit deficit when Spieth finished his round.
Everyone else was at least 10 shots behind.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) —
Southeastern Conference schools
want to make sure they have
more than just a couple of men's
basketball programs capable of
making long NCAA Tournament
runs each season.
And they're paying big money
to try to do it.
Over the past month,
Mississippi State and Tennessee
both hired coaches with Final
Four experience. The Bulldogs
selected Ben Howland and the
Volunteers landed Rick Barnes.
Alabama also made a run at a
Final Four coach by pursuing
Wichita State's Gregg Marshall
before hiring Avery Johnson,
who lacks college experience but
has coached in the NBA Finals.
All three are making at least
$2 million per year, earning significantly more than their predecessors.
"You have to be committed,"
Tennessee athletic director Dave
Hart said after hiring Barnes.
"You have to invest. That's what
we've done here, and I think
there will be a great return on
this investment."
These high-profile hires represent the SEC's latest attempt to
upgrade its men's basketball
depth. Kentucky and Florida
have combined for three national
championships and seven Final
Four appearances over the last
10 seasons.
The rest of the league has
lagged far behind.
Tennessee's run to a regional
semifinal in 2014 marks the only
time an SEC school other than
Kentucky or Florida has gone as
far as the Sweet 16 over the last
five tournaments. Although the
SEC earned five NCAA bids this
year, only Kentucky lasted
beyond the first weekend.
The SEC's new coaches are
eager to change that.
"I wouldn't have taken this
job if we couldn't make it to the
Final Four," Johnson said.
Johnson will earn about $2.8
million annually, according to a
person familiar with the negotiations. He replaces Anthony
Grant, who was making $1.9 million per year.
Howland is getting $2.05 million per year, about double what
his predecessor Rick Ray made.
Barnes is receiving $2.25 million
per year to replace Donnie
Tyndall, who had been making
Johnson
$1.6 million.
They're continuing a trend
that began last year when
Auburn gave Bruce Pearl a sixyear contract totaling $14.7 million after firing Tony Barbee,
who had been making $1.5 million annually. Pearl had led
Tennessee to six straight NCAA
Tournament appearances from
2006-11 before getting fired during an NCAA investigation.
"When I was in the SEC
(before), I didn't see 100 percent
commitment from every institution in the league," Pearl said. "I
do see it now. That's pretty
strong."
That's reflected in the star
power of the new SEC coaches.
Howland, Barnes, Johnson and
Pearl all replaced coaches who
were hired from outside the
major conferences.
"You had major schools hiring
minor characters," said Paul
Finebaum, a commentator for
SEC Network.
Not anymore.
Howland reached three
straight Final Fours with UCLA
from 2006-08. Barnes took
Texas to the Final Four in 2003
and has made the NCAA
Tournament 19 of the last 20
seasons. Johnson coached the
Dallas Mavericks to a Western
Conference title in 2006.
The increased salaries being
offered to coaches also reflects
the impact of the SEC Network
that launched last year and will
add millions to the athletic budgets of each conference member.
Arrested Hawks player says he, teammate ‘in wrong place at wrong time’
ATLANTA (AP) — Pero Antic
said Friday he and Atlanta
Hawks
teammate
Thabo
Sefolosha were not with Indiana
Pacers forward Chris Copeland
when Copeland was stabbed
outside a Manhattan nightclub.
Antic and Sefolosha were at
the scene early Wednesday.
They were charged with
obstructing authorities and disorderly conduct and were
released without bail.
Antic, speaking for the first
time about the scene at the
arrest, said he and Sefolosha
were not part of Copeland's
group.
"We don't have nothing to do
with what happened with that,"
Antic said. "We weren't togeth-
Antic
sefoloshA
er. We didn't even see the guy
and whatever happened, happened way before."
Copeland, Copeland's girlfriend and another woman were
stabbed. A 22-year-old suspect
was in custody.
Antic, a 6-foot-11 backup
center, said he and Sefolosha
were not trying to shield police
or onlookers from Copeland.
"I would say that it's a pure
example of being in the wrong
place at the wrong time," Antic
said. "I mean, people know
Thabo for so many years in the
league. He's probably one of the
greatest guys. The reporters
who are here know me. ... It's
just a pure example of being in
the wrong place at the wrong
time."
Attorney Alex Spiro, representing Antic and Sefolosha, said
the two did not commit a crime
and he expects the charges to be
dismissed.
Sefolosha sustained a fractured right lower leg and ligament damage. He will miss the
rest of the regular season and
postseason.
Antic did not play in the
Hawks' win at Brooklyn on
Wednesday night but is expected to play against Charlotte on
Friday night.
The Hawks have clinched the
No. 1 seed in the Eastern
Conference playoffs.
"The only thing I can say is
we feel bad for the bad publicity
we brought to the Hawks organization, the Hawks family, not by
our fault," Antic said.
The loss of Sefolosha, a backup forward and strong perimeter defender, comes as the
Hawks already are missing
starting forward Paul Millsap
with a sprained right shoulder.
Coach Mike Budenholzer said
Friday that Millsap will not play
against Charlotte and also will
miss
Sunday's
game
at
Washington. Budenholzer said
he believes Millsap can return
for the playoffs.
"I think we feel good about
the progress he's making and
the timeline," Budenholzer said.
Budenholzer said he's not
concerned the arrests of Antic
and Sefolosha will be a distraction.
"What's helping most is the
players we have in our locker
room," Budenholzer said. "I
think they're a really mature
group. They have a high belief in
each other and they have a high
belief in what they're doing.
There's a real genuine focus on
what can we do as a team."
Center Al Horford said players are supporting Sefolosha,
but he said he hasn't talked with
him about the incident.
"I haven't really talked to him
much about anything," Horford
said. "I've kind of given him his
space. It's something he needs to
get treatment and when the time
is right, I'll reach out to him."
Antic said he apologized to
his teammates.
"Yeah, you know, they're supportive," Antic said. "We apologized to them that we couldn't
even help them in the game in
Brooklyn. They win. We congratulated them. We've just got the
full support of the team. That's
most important for us."

Penske crowding the top of IndyCar and nasCaR
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) —
The top of the U.S. racing world
is crowded with Roger Penske's
drivers, whether in open-wheel
or stock cars.
When Juan Pablo Montoya
took the checkered flag to win
the IndyCar season opener, he
was followed immediately
across the line by his pole-sitting
teammate, defending series
champion Will Power.
Only one car was between
them and Team Penske's other
two
drivers,
with
Helio
Castroneves finishing fourth and
Simon Pagenaud fifth in his team
debut at St. Petersburg, Florida.
"When I look at the IndyCar
side, we've got four very strong
drivers. ... We keep finding little
things and it just works together.
It's the same on the NASCAR
side," Power said. "That comes
from the top. That's how Roger
runs his businesses, and that's
how the racing teams are run as
well."

Logano (22) passes Jeff Gordon on last year’s final lap
ished second just ahead of polesitter and teammate Joey Logano
in the Sprint Cup race.
So in two races over a span of
hours more than 700 miles
apart, Team Penske had two
polesitters, one win and top-five
finishes for all six of his drivers.
"That's stuff that we've never
done before," Logano said. "For
Team Penske to be able to do
that, that was a big deal. ...
Hopefully we just continue that
momentum throughout the season."
Six races into the season for
NASCAR's top-tier series, Logano
is second in points and
Keselowski fourth — and both
have already won a race, pretty
much ensuring them a spot in the
season-ending championship
Chase.

weekend, the Sprint Cup drivers

Jade Johnson threw a personal

inches and sixth in the discus
with a measurement of 64 feet, 10

Madison Williams placed
fourth in the 200 meters with a
time of 31.12 seconds and sixth in
the 100-meter dash with a time of
14.20 seconds. She also placed
fifth in the long jump with a
measurement of 13 feet, 5 inches.
Sydney Stephens had a personal-best distance of 27 feet, 6

time of 19.88 seconds to place
sixth.

is the defending champion of the
track's spring race and has an
average finish of 6.4 over his last
five starts. Keselowski's average
finish in that span is seventh,
including third last fall.
IndyCar is in New Orleans for
its inaugural race there and second race this season. The openwheel series' last four debuts at
new tracks were won by current
Penske drivers.
Power was three times the
IndyCar season runner-up
before winning the championship
last
year,
when
Castroneves was second for the
fourth time in his career. They
expect Team Penske to contend
for another title in 2015.
"I have a feeling the championship is going to come down
between the four of us. It's a good
problem to have," Power said,
chuckling when asked about the
collective IndyCar group.
"It's quite funny when a
Frenchman,
an
Aussie,
Colombian, Brazilian — a lot of
miscommunication, all the different accents. ... It's fun, they're
all really good drivers, and Roger
seems to only employ people
with heaps and heaps of experience."
This is the first time Penske
has fielded four full-time cars in
the IndyCar Series.
On the Cup side, 2012 season
champion Keselowski led the
series last season with six wins,
and Logano won five times.
Logano opened this season
winning the Daytona 500 and
has finished top 10 in every race.
Keselowski has five straight top
10s, including a win at California
and the second-place finish at
Martinsville.
Like Power, Logano points to
team owner Roger Penske as the
motivation.
"He wants to be the best at it,
and that trickles down to the
whole company. When your
leader is like that, you want to be
like that, and it forces you to be
like that," Logano said. "That's
the type of boss you want to
have. As a race car driver, you
want an owner that's willing to
do whatever it takes to win.”
LeRoy placed sixth in the long
jump with a season-best distance
of 12 feet, 10 inches. Abbie
Howell finished sixth in the shot
put with a season-best distance of
26 feet, 2 1/2 inches, and she ran
the mile in 7:59 to place seventh.
Caitlyn ran the 300-meter hurdles in a personal-best time of
58.39 seconds to place sixth.
Drake, Stephens, Williams and
Harrison teamed up in the closely
contested sprint relay and finished fourth with a time of 56.75
seconds. The second team of
Abby Foster, Victoria Clayton,
LeRoy and Taylor Rose Watson
placed sixth in a time of 58.65.

Students from five different counties will participate in the Dublin-Laurens Arts Council-sponsored event April 24.

Honor band a privilege for listeners
Dublin-Laurens Arts Council marks 15 years of Dublin-Laurens Honor Band performance
By JASON HALCOMBE
For a decade and a half, the top student
band performers from around the region have
come together under one roof to present a oneof-a-kind performance. That experience continues April 24 at 7:30 p.m., when band members
from middle high schools from five different
counties perform at the Dublin-Laurens Honor
Band at Theatre Dublin.
"I love it because it gives the kids an opportunity to play within each other," said Michael
Dukes, West Laurens Band Director and organizer. "Sports is very competitive, but the language of music speaks as a single community. I
love how we can get all those kids together and
rehearse for a day and a half and put on a concert for the community."
Scheduled to perform at the concert are students from Bleckley County, Dublin, East Laurens, Treutlen County and West Laurens.
The bands will be led by Beth Taylor (middle
school) and Joe Brashier (high school).
"Beth is actually a native of Treutlen County who has taught in the Laurens County system," said Dukes of Taylor, who currently
serves as a professor at Shorter University.
Brashier will lead the high school students.
He is the Director of Bands at Valdosta State
University.
"It's free to the public," Dukes said. "The
Dublin-Laurens Arts Council has sponsored
this event and we are so appreciative of their
support. It is so rewarding to see these kids be
given a chance to express themselves outside of
their traditional band settings."

Duo of rapper Wale, Seinfeld land at No.1 with album
ATLANTA (AP) — Wale
always wanted to feature
Jerry Seinfeld in his music,
but didn't know how to
reach the superstar actor-comedian, who initially knew
nothing about the rapper.
But then the Grammynominated performer met
Seinfeld's wife, a Wale fan
and hip-hop enthusiast.
"She's a big hip-hop fan
and of my music," Wale said
of Jessica Seinfeld, a cookbook author and philanthropist who Wale said has
many friends in the hip-hop
industry, including Jay Z.
"She was the middle man on
a lot of things because Jerry
is super busy. He's not an
easy person to reach. But
she was able to put it all together."
Sure, some would call
Wale and Seinfeld an odd
couple. But when they met,
Wale said, they instantly
clicked.
The duo spent two years
working together and Wale
calls their chemistry "natural." Now, the rapper is eager
for listeners to hear the finish product, "The Album
About Nothing," which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart this
week
and
dethroned
Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp
a Butterfly."
"I liked his outlook on
certain things. He's super
smart," Wale said of Seinfeld. "He's a wise person
that I can learn a lot from
and knows about the entertainment business."
Seinfeld isn't rapping on
the album. Instead, he is
what Wale calls the album's
"narrator," offering his in-
sightful commentary on
each track to bring clarity to
the rapper's lyrics.
"He laid the foundation of
most of the songs, so in the
concept of the album, he's
the other voice," Wale said.
The album also includes
dialogue from the epic "Seinfeld" series, much like
Wale's previous mixtapes,
"Mixtape About Nothing"
and "More About Nothing."
Wale, whose hits include
"Lotus Flower Bomb" and
"Bad," also tackles serious
topics on his fourth album:
He opens up about his former girlfriend's miscarriage
and his cousin's death. The
performer, 31, said he fell
into depression and turned
to drugs following those
hardships.
"That was a tough period
for me. It was a struggle for
me after those incidents.
Everything almost happened at once," Wale said.
Wale said he was also unhappy with the direction of
his career, believing he wasn't getting the same respect
as his competitors like
Lamar, Drake and J. Cole.
He said reading negative
comments on social media
about his music and character disturbed him, though
he didn't let it completely
dominate his thoughts.
"I know I'm in good company," he said. "Each of
them has told me my work
was incredible. ... It's frustrating sometimes when
people let things outside my
music dictate their feelings
about me. But at the end of
the day, the respect of my
peers is all that matters."

Review: 'The Longest Ride' tells 2 love stories, old and new
By The Associated Press
Ever since "The Notebook"
made moviegoers swoon in
2004, Nicholas Sparks' name
has been synonymous with
teary-eyed romance.
The author's latest novel
adapted for the big screen,
"The Longest Ride," is no exception, offering two love stories at once. But the most
heartfelt affair here isn't between its impossibly goodlooking stars; it's shared by a
couple 70 years their senior
through a story told in flashbacks.
Sophia (Britt Robertson)
and Luke (Scott Eastwood,
son of Clint) comprise the
younger pair. She's an arthistory student at North Carolina's Wake Forest University with plans to work in a
New York gallery. He's a competitive bull rider trying to
claim the national title. They
meet when her friends persuade her to go to the rodeo.
He's in the ring, and during a
stunt, his cowboy hat flies off
and lands right in her lap.
Obviously, they have to go on
a date.
A convoluted and unrealistic set of circumstances lead
them to meet Ira (Alan Alda),
a widowed curmudgeon who
clings to a collection of love
letters he wrote to his late
wife. It is through these letters that the young couple,
and the audience, learns
about Ira's love affair with
Ruth. Told through extended,
sepia-tinted flashbacks, the
young Ira (Jack Huston) and
Ruth (Oona Chaplin) share
the kind of romance that
movies are made for.
It was love at first sight for
In this image released by 20th Century Fox, Britt Robertson, right, and Scott Eastwood appear in a scene from "The Longest Ride." (AP Photo/20th Century Fox, Michael Tackett)
the two, who meet in the early days of World War II. By
the time he's called to serve,
they're a couple, and Ruth
waits for Ira until an injury
sends him home for good. Despite years of personal challenges, they keep their marriage intact.
The letters, and the flashback sequences they inspire,
reveal "the longest ride" has
nothing to do with bull-riding: It's about Ira and Ruth's
lifelong love.
While ostensibly meant to
illustrate the timeless nature
of romance, the richness of
this relationship makes its
modern foil seem superficial
by comparison.
Eastwood is a fitting cowboy — handsome and sculpted, with a touch of his dad's
famous swagger. He's believable as a bull-rider, and
shows enough vulnerable
charm to be a romantic leading man.
The cherubic, pillow-lipped
Robertson makes for a fine
potential partner. She's pret-
ty and sweet, yet headstrong
and focused when it comes to
her future.
Both actors are easy on the
eyes, but lack the fireworks,
and just plain fire, to be a truly convincing onscreen romance.
The script by Craig Bolotin
sets up each couple as sacrificing for love, but Sophia and
Luke's struggle just doesn't
seem as serious. The unnecessary setting of Sophia's
sorority house doesn't help:
Her sisters apparently exist
Review: Bergen shares love life in 'A Fine Romance'
By The Associated Press
In her new memoir, Candice
Bergen shares intimate details
surrounding the loves of her
life. "A Fine Romance" describes
her marriage to an effervescent
French director, depicts a deep
bond with her daughter, provides an intricate look into the
talented cast of her TV show,
"Murphy Brown," and concludes
by celebrating a new chapter
with a new man in New York.
Hailing from Hollywood,
Bergen is well-equipped to maneuver the sometimes treacherous waters of celebrity life. Her
fortunate upbringing enables
Bergen to easily adapt to the
jet-setting ways of renowned director Louis Malle. While he is
immersed with all aspects of the
film world, Bergen dives head-
first into being the best wife,
homemaker and stepmother she
can be. It's obvious she adores
Malle.
Bergen's perspective changes
after her daughter, Chloe, is
born. Chloe travels to Los Angeles, New York and France as
Bergen juggles motherhood and
a hectic television career as an
'80s icon in fabulous shoulder
pads. Unfortunately, she feels
like a single mom as Malle
spends most of his time working
in Europe. It's no wonder that
Chloe later shines as Bergen's
light after Malle loses his battle
with cancer. Bergen's story embraces the good and the bad in
her 15-year marriage, but the
loss of her husband is devastating.

family life, movie roles and
watching Chloe blossom into a
beautiful young lady. She even
finds love again with real estate
magnate Marshall Rose. Her
life soon revolves around rescue
animals, planning Chloe's wedding and fending off those stubborn extra pounds.
"A Fine Romance" is full of
heart. Even though Bergen is
surrounded by celebrity friends
at the turn of every page, it's evident she is about as down-toearth as they come. There is an
honesty in her writing that is
both refreshing and encouraging. At the end of the day, she's
the one who will laugh with
you, cry with you and punch
someone in the throat for you
should the need arise.

only to wax euphoric about
her date's looks, then disappear from the narrative.
"I want a cowboy," one
says.
Both couples are filmed
lovingly by George Tillman,
Jr. ("Soul Food"), who was inspired by his own 25-year
marriage to helm the story.
He also brings a gritty realism to the bull-riding shots,
using a rider's-view camera
to convey the power and intensity of the animal and
sport.
If only the same power and
intensity existed in Sophia
and Luke's love affair.
Still, the film is likely to
satisfy Sparks fans. And it
brings something new to the
romance genre: bull riding.
"The Longest Ride," a 20th
Century Fox release, is rated
PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for
"some sexuality, partial nudity and some war and sports
action." Running time: 124
minutes. Two and a half stars
out of four.

Pregnant teen weighs best
options for her baby’s future
DEAR ABBY: I have had a
very strained relationship
with my father for many
years. My mother and I are
not close because she was incarcerated for most of my life
until recently.
I am 16 now, and just found
out I'm pregnant. No one
knows except the father of my
child. For some reason, he is
thrilled for us. I, on the other
hand, am terrified of the uncertainties.
I know what my father will
say. He will want me to get an
abortion, but I would never
choose that for myself or for
my baby. My mother is struggling since she was released
from prison and is still trying
to get on her feet. I live with
my grandparents, who don't
have the means to support a
child.
It seems like my only option is to move in with my
boyfriend and his family
while I finish school and then
get a job. Please give me an
unbiased perspective. -- UNCERTAIN IN THE SOUTH
DEAR UNCERTAIN: You
appear to be an intelligent
young woman, so I will give it
to you straight. Although you
think you know what your father will say, you can't know
for sure until you talk to him
and tell him what's going on.
I'm advising you to do that because you may need his help.
A loving father will give it to
you. If you decide to have this
baby, he can't force you to get
an abortion.
You and your baby's father
should also talk to his parents, so that, IF NECESSARY, you will be able to stay
with them. You must also be
sure to have the best prenatal
care possible, so your child
will be born healthy. Planned
Parenthood has clinics where
this care is offered, and you
should contact it as soon as
possible. If you check its website,
www.plannedparenthood.org,
you will also find information
about adoption.
You must also make earning your high school diploma
a priority, so you will be able
to support and educate the
child you're bringing into the
world, if you decide to raise
him or her yourself.
DEAR ABBY: I physically
assaulted a male friend
(Aiden) who I was -- and still
am -- interested in. I'm a survivor of domestic violence and
have a troubled past. I have
sworn not to touch alcohol,
and shared with him some of
the horror stories regarding
what happens when I drink.
A few weeks ago, I hosted a
mutual friend's birthday party at my house. Long story
short, Aiden suggested I take
a shot. I was unwilling at
way he wants it. And if that's
the case, it is important that
you concentrate on your relationships with friends and
other family members (if
there are any) and activities
that bring you happiness because, clearly, your relationship with your son does not.
first, but finally agreed to a
birthday toast. After that
toast, things are blurry for
me. According to other friends
at the party, I went crazy.
I want so bad to tell Aiden
that I know what I did was
unacceptable, but I know he
may never see or speak to me
again. As someone who has
lived through being abused, I
know this is a very difficult
thing to ever forgive. How can
I even look him in the eye if
he ever speaks to me again? -SORRY BEYOND WORDS
DEAR SORRY: Recognizing the part that Aiden played
in what happened might help.
You described your past and
warned him about what happens when you have a drink.
Knowing that, he NEVER
should have suggested you
have an alcoholic beverage to
make the birthday toast.
If your paths cross, stand
up straight and say you're
sorry. But frankly, he owes
you an apology, too.
DEAR ABBY: My 34-yearold, single, independent son
completely ignores me. He
won't answer texts, emails,
postal mail or phone calls.
Weeks and months go by with
no meaningful conversation
between us.
I am sick of it, and tired of
being treated so disrespectfully. I thought I had raised my
son to be more thoughtful of
others, especially his mother.
I'm ready to put an end to
my misery by ignoring him
back and "forgetting" holidays. That may not seem
motherly, but I'm weary of
trying to get him to be more
responsive. Any suggestions? - IGNORED MOM IN ATLANTA
DEAR IGNORED MOM: I
don't know how often you
have been calling, emailing,
texting and writing to your
son, but from what you have
written, it might be a relief to
both of you if you stop -- at
least for a while. If he notices
the silence and reaches out,
you can discuss the reason for
it then.
However, if he doesn't, you
will have to accept that for
whatever reason, this is the
DEAR ABBY: My daughter
just got engaged and is beginning to plan her wedding. Her
fiance has been married before, but she hasn't. She
wants a band at the reception
and he wants a D.J. (which he
had at his first wedding). My
husband is paying for the entire affair, and he and I support our daughter in this.
I know this seems like a
small thing, but her fiance is
really digging in his heels.
Would it be wrong for her to
pull the "this is my one and
only wedding" card? This fight
seems ridiculous to us. What
do you think? -- PARENTS OF
THE BRIDE
DEAR PARENTS: I'm glad
you asked. I think that if your
daughter goes that route, it
may not be her one and only
wedding. And I urge you and
your husband to stay out of it
and let the two lovebirds resolve this for themselves.
DEAR ABBY: My wife and
I are retired, so we both contribute to household chores.
There are no rules as to who
does what, but somehow
everything gets done.
The disagreement we're
having relates to laundry.
When I do it, the last steps
are: Remove the clothes from
the dryer, place them on top,
then sort, fold and put away.
My wife claims that taking
the clothes out of the dryer
and placing them on top creates wrinkles, and what I really need to do is take one
item out of the dryer, fold it,
and then repeat until the dryer is empty, sorting as I go. I
maintain that this does not
seem logical.
There is no data to back
her claim, and all it does is
make extra work for me. I
would
appreciate
your
thoughts. -- FLUFF AND
FOLD
DEAR F AND F: When
clothes are removed from the
dryer and tossed in a pile,
wrinkles can set in. However,
if the garments are removed
individually and then folded
or hung up, they remain wrinkle-free.

THE BOLD AND THE
BEAUTIFUL
Carter was in complete
shock at the conversation he
overheard between Maya
and Nicole. Confused about
Maya’s revelation, Carter
questioned her about not disclosing her secret to him
when they were engaged to
be married. Wyatt grew concerned that Quinn had reverted back to her darker
ways after having told her
about Brooke and Deacon’s
discussion. Quinn confronted Deacon about whether or
not he and Brooke have
rekindled their relationship.
Having made herself clear
that she would not be his
consolation prize, Quinn put
Deacon on the spot to make a
decision about who he wants
to spend his future with.
Feeling as though Rick has
the right to know, Carter
hinted that Maya isn’t being
totally forthcoming about her
past.
Deacon and Wyatt
grew concerned about what
Quinn might do next. Quinn
arrived at Brooke’s house to
let her know exactly whom
Deacon chose to be with.
Ridge had an ulterior motive
when he surprisingly gave
Nicole his full support of her
auditioning to be a model for
Forrester Creations. Brooke
set Quinn straight about her
interest in Deacon and bluntly voiced her opinion regarding their pending nuptials.
Willing to defend his woman
to the end, Rick was convinced that Carter’s acting
out against Maya because
he’s still in love with her.
Knowing that she paid a visit to Brooke, Deacon made
his feelings to Quinn very
clear. Quinn attempted to redeem herself with those that
she wronged at Forrester
Creations by presenting Rick
a gift and extending an olive
branch to Ivy. When Brooke
came to his defense against
Ridge’s criticism, Rick asked
his mother to return to work
full time. Seeing how frustrated Ridge was following
his confrontation with Rick
and Brooke, Pam championed him to continue standing up for what he believes
in. Carter pondered revealing Maya’s secret when she
became the topic of conversation between their coworkers. Scoffing at the allegations that Ridge had made
towards her, Brooke unleashed her true feelings
about his relationship with
Caroline.
Nicole became
overconfident in her modeling ability as she took part in
a test photo shoot.
THIS WEEK: Carter pulls
Nicole aside to let her know
that he’s aware of her blackmailing Maya. Ridge goes on
the defensive when Brooke
airs her grievances to him
about their past together.

Nikolas was stunned by
Elizabeth’s news that Jake’s
married. Ric was caught off

since her car broke down.
Spencer’s pride was hurt by

Mayor: New sculptor will fix village's 'Scary Lucy' statue
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — A
much-maligned statue of Lucille Ball will get a face lift after it drew worldwide attention
as "Scary Lucy," according to
the mayor of the western New
York village where the 1950s
sitcom actress and comedian
grew up and her life-size
bronze has stood since 2009.
Scott Schrecengost said
Tuesday that his village will be
starting a fundraising campaign on the crowdfunding
website Kickstarter to collect
donations to rework the Lucy
statue from the shoulders up.
Schrecengost said he has spoken to a sculptor who agreed to
fix the statue for less than the
$8,000 to $10,000 quoted previously by the original sculptor,
Dave Poulin.
"We'd like to have better
representation of Lucille Ball
in her hometown," Schrecengost told The Associated Press
in a phone interview from
Celoron, located 60 miles south
of Buffalo, New York.
The mayor's comments
came only hours after Poulin
told the AP he was willing to
create a new statue for free.
But after Schrecengost said he
doesn't want Poulin to redo the
work, even for free. Poulin said
he was "fine" with that decision.
Celoron, a village of about
1,300 on the southeastern end
of Chautauqua Lake, found it-

with the name "We Love Lucy!
Get Rid of this Statue" garnered renewed interest in the
wake of local media stories on
the statue. Critics of the 400pound statue dubbed it "Scary
Lucy," saying its face bears little resemblance to the "I Love
Lucy" star.
Poulin even used the same
term in a letter he released
Monday evening apologizing
for the statue, calling it "by far
my most unsettling sculpture."
Poulin said he was on a family vacation with his wife and
son last week when the controversy erupted. By the time he
returned last weekend to his
home in the area, his work was
being vilified online as a
"nightmare" resembling a
drunken zombie.
He said he has received
"hundreds and hundreds" of
angry emails and phone messages, including some death
threats.
"It's totally insane," Poulin
said. "There's a lot of nasty,
nasty, nasty things being said
about me as an artist and
about my work."
Poulin, who's in his 50s,
said that body of work includes
creating more than 120 commissioned public sculptures in-

stalled across western New
York and Pennsylvania. None
of those have ever resulted in
similar criticism, he said.
Schrecengost said there was
displeasure with Poulin's Lucy
statue, which was created a
decade ago, from the moment a
local couple donated it to the
village and it was unveiled in
Lucille Ball Memorial Park in
August 2009.
"Everyone was shocked and
agreed it wasn't Lucy," the
mayor said.
There had been earlier attempts to convince Poulin to
redo the statue, but the village
didn't have the funds for his
fee, Schrecengost said. The
plans are to raise enough money online to rework the statue's
head, neck and shoulders. If
the village can raise up to
$20,000, the whole statue may
be replaced, he said.
