SCHOOL Staff photo by Terrica Hendrix Texas ninth grader finds 1.99 carat diamond MARGI JENKS Park Interpreter The Johnson family, from Garland, Texas, a Dallas suburb, were looking for a close place to have a family adventure over their Spring Break holiday. Gasoline prices are high, and they didn’t want to travel far. Ms. Johnson got on the internet and found the Crater of Diamonds State Park. They drove up on Sun., March 11 and started searching, even though it rained almost two inches at the park that day. The family of four brought with them Ms. Johnson’s godson, ninth grader Collin Flores, because his mom died three years ago and they often take him along on their vaca- NASHVILLE - Boys’ High School Basketball Coach Ted Green has submitted a letter of resignation seeking to be relieved of his current position, Superintendent Doug Graham confirmed Wednesday. Graham said Green has expressed an interest in remaining at the school district “in some capacity,” but no longer wishes to serve as head basketball coach, a position he has held for the last five years. The topic is one of many on the agenda for tonight’s school board meeting. “The board is gonna deal with it,” Graham said. “We’ll look at our options in the classroom and weigh our options.” In the letter, Graham said Green wrote that he has enjoyed working in the position and serving as a role model for students, and that he has “no hard feelings or regrets” about his tenure as head of the boys’ basketball program. - Charles Goodin the area of Canary Hill when he spotted something very shiny sitting right on the surface.

The ABEA was founded in 1954 and is associated with the Southern Business Education Association and the National Business Education Association. The purpose of the Association is to promote business education, professional growth, quality instruction, and cooperation among state and national organizations related to business education. The organization also serves as a representative body for business educators that will help develop and initiate an active legislative network. According to State ABEA President Kerry Eliason of Jonesboro, “Mr. Horne will serve on the Board as District IV Representative. He will represent the Southwest Arkansas counties of Clark, Columbia, Garland, Hempstead, Hot Springs, Howard, Lafayette, Little River, Miller, Montgomery, Nevada, Pike, Saline and Sevier.” Horne has been a member of the Nashville Arkansas School District staff for 12 years as an administrator and teacher.

By ensuring that every Arkansan looking for a job has one, we can work to keep families in their homes, small businesses open and our economy growing. I believe there is no better way to create jobs and put our local economies on a path to long-term economic growth than to focus on the Mike Ross development of first-class roadways, rail opportunities, ports, and inland United States waterways. Similar to how Congressman President Roosevelt’s Works Progress Administration (WPA) Program helped create jobs during the Great Depression, we need a modern-day WPA-type investment in our infrastructure now. We can no longer ignore our nation’s deteriorating infrastructure or our state’s growing need to expand the current infrastructure system. It is estimated that for every billion dollars we spend on road construction, nearly 35,000 new jobs are created. As we work to position Arkansas as a national leader in business and as a global economic player, we must first ensure that our state’s infrastructure is top-notch. Since first taking office, I have pushed for funding to expand U.S. Highway 82 and 167 to four lanes, to complete the Hot Springs Expressway and to build Interstate 49 (I49), Interstate 69 (I-69), and Interstate 530 (I-530). In fact, on November 9, 2011, I joined a coalition of public officials and business leaders in Drew County to break ground on the Arkansas portion of Interstate 69 – an interstate that will span over 2,700 miles from the Canadian border in Michigan to the Mexican border in Texas running through Arkansas. Construction will create many much-needed jobs and, once it’s built, it will boost commerce to the region and usher in new economic opportunities for many of our towns and businesses. Much like I-40 and I-30 have helped communities all along its corridors grow and prosper, I-49 and I-69 will help do the same. Strong waterways are also a bridge to economic growth and an improved standard of living throughout our state. Arkansas’s waterways play a key role in economic development here at home and across this nation ensuring we are able to transport goods, maintain access to water supplies, and take advantage of our state’s recreational and tourism opportunities. Adequately funding our waterway infrastructure in Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional District has been a priority of mine during my time in Congress. We have vital waterways in our district that serve as critical transportation routes including the Red River, the Ouachita-Black Navigation System, the Arkansas River and the Mississippi River, which forms the eastern border of our state and is the main trade corridor for goods produced in the northern part of the U.S. traveling to gateway ports near the Gulf. Investing in and maintaining these waterways will enhance manufacturing and distribution opportunities and create jobs here in Arkansas. In addition to our roadways and waterways, rail continues to be an important part of the economy throughout Arkansas, particularly in our district. It is critical to almost every industry in our state, from manufacturing to agriculture and timber. By improving our rail infrastructure, we not only make transportation safer, but also more efficient. This investment will help businesses throughout Arkansas strengthen and grow their operations, boosting our economy and creating more jobs. Repairing and rebuilding our roads and bridges, and developing, ports, inland waterways, and rail opportunities will be key to our continued economic recovery. These projects not only create jobs in the short term, they also strengthen our infrastructure, helping to boost commerce and economic development in the long term. We need to start rebuilding America again. While we must cut spending, we simply cannot ignore our nation’s infrastructure, which is key to boosting commerce and growing our economy. As the Congressman for Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional District, I will continue fighting for critical federal investments that will help boost our state’s infrastructure development and put people back to work.

Find us on the Internet at: www.nashvillenews.org Limit your sodium intake Denise Graves, RD, LD DaVita Dietitian Last week we discussed ways to serve an “in shape plate.” This week we are going to look closer at the plate by examining ways to decrease your sodium intake. Sodium helps maintain fluid balance, transmit nerve impulses and influences the contraction and relaxation of muscles. Sodium is a mineral that is essential for life but in excess it can cause serious health conditions. Heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and congestive heart failure are some of the problems associated with high sodium levels in the body. The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting sodium intake to less than 2,300 mg a day. One teaspoon of table salt is 2,325 mg of sodium. The recommendation for those over 51 years of age or older, the African American population, patients with high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease is 1,500 mg. The average American consumes more than 3,400 mg of sodium daily. My rule of thumb is “if another man has done something to the food item then there is sodium added.” Why? Salt (primary source of sodium) is a cheap preservative. So the fresher the better is the rule of thumb. It’s that simple. If you control what is added to your meals then you can control your sodium intake. Taste is acquired. Cut down on the amount of salt by decreasing amount added when cooking and added at the table. Gradually remove the salt shaker from the table. If you gradually decrease the amount of salt used on a daily basis you will learn to enjoy the taste of food and not salt. An “in shape plate” when it comes to sodium content would need to contain less processed or prepared food items and more fresh foods. If you are planning on serving ham for Easter dinner then try not to have any other food items that are cured or processed. A three ounce serving of ham provides 800 mg of sodium, which is a fourth Healthy Eating Special of daily requirement. Other ways to decrease your sodium content is to cook from scratch. Now, don’t quit reading at this point. Cooking from scratch is not difficult and I have a few suggestions for you to think along this line. Make your own taco seasoning instead of buying premade packages. When you serve tacos many of the ingredients are premade items; i.e., chips, salsa, cheese, taco shells, so cutting sodium intake can be a challenge. Taco seasoning packets can provide 400 plus mg of Sodium per serving to the taco meat. If you make your own seasoning you control the amount of salt added. Below is a recipe for taco seasoning that I use when making tacos, which is 145 mg of sodium per serving. Taco Seasoning: 2 tablespoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, ¼ teaspoon oregano, ½ teaspoon paprika, 1 ½ teaspoon cumin and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix all together and add to scrambled browned lean ground beef. I never add water; it just dilutes the flavor. I also use smoky paprika and roasted cumin to add a different taste. Other ways to cut down on sodium intake is to make your own spaghetti sauce and chili seasoning mix. It’s so much more fun to create your own by opening up your spice cabinet and using your imagination. I grow herbs in my flower beds so I often just pick, wash and chop. By having an “in shape sodium plate” you can decrease risk for many complicated medical problems.

NASHVILLE NEWS • Thursday, March 15, 2012 • Page 3 Grand jury indicts local couple TERRICA HENDRIX Editor TEXARKANA – A local federally licensed firearms dealer and his wife have been indicted on federal charges. US Pawn co-owners Wesley Jay Wor thington and his wife, Melissa Worthington, were indicted March 7 by a grand jury for aiding and abetting in the sale of a firearm to a person who did not reside in the state which the li- Extension Tips censee’s place of business is located, according to the indictment. Wesley Worthington is also charged with selling a firearm to a person who did not reside in the state. The indictment alleges that on or around Aug. 7, 2008, Wesley Worthington sold a Smith and Wesson .32-20 caliber revolver to an undercover federal agent who – at the time of the sale – did not reside in Arkansas. by Jean A. Ince Staff chairman UofA Cooperative Extension Service • Howard County When Prices Rise: Living on Your Income Have you noticed higher prices on most items you use every day? While most of us are aware of higher prices at the grocery store and gas station, we may not be as aware of other items. When you have to pay more for things like gasoline, food and health care, other difficulties may arise, especially if you are retired and/or are living on a fixed income. Realizing that your income does not go as far as it used to, even in covering the basics, can be alarming. When prices rise, don’t panic, but don’t become complacent, either. Don’t stop credit payments or ignore that you are facing financial difficulties. You need to adjust your spending and develop a spending plan or budget to pay bills. Surviving a financial crisis will take work and planning, but it can be done – and you may even be stronger when the crisis is over. * Track your spending. Start by tracking your spending. Keep a log of everything you spend for a month or two. This process will give you a good idea about where you can make changes in your spending habits. * Separate fixed and flexible expenses. Separate your living expenses into fixed and flexible expenses. Examples of fixed expenses include mortgage payments or rent, installment credit payments, deposits into emergency savings, medical and/or life insurance, car payments, and utility payments (if on an equal payment plan). Examples of flexible expenses include gasoline, recreation, leisure, food, clothing and personal care spending. Examine where cuts can be made in flexible spending. Determine the difference between needs and wants. Can you substitute less expensive brands or items? * Communication is a family affair. Because financial decisions affect the whole family, talk with them. Let them know about the need to change spending habits. Involve all family members, regardless of their ages. As a family, discuss how income is spent, what is important, and what is not so important. What must the family have in the next week or month. You may need to alter your plans for taking a vacation or scale back the number of recreational events, such as trips to the movies, eating out, etc. * Examine your expenditures. Your expenditures hold the key to how well you do when dollars are scarce. Be creative about how to cut expenses. Here are some suggestions: - Before making purchases above a certain preset dollar amount, discuss the purchase with your family. - Create an emergency spending plan by identifying what you absolutely must have in order to survive. Then add what extras you would like to have and prioritize them before you add them to the list. - Control impulse buying. Make a shopping list and weigh the importance of each item. Before buying anything, ask yourself: “Is this purchase absolutely necessary? Can I live without it for now?” - Practice effective consumer skills. Comparison shop. Examine store specials. Use coupons. Look for cash discounts. Shop at thrift or discount stores. Repair rather than replace. - Cook at home, instead of going out to eat. Do your own housework and yard work. Learn new skills. Whenever possible, use free or low-cost community services. - Brainstorm ways to have fun with spending money… have a pizza and movie night at home, pack a picnic and enjoy a day at the park, having family game night at home. - Postpone the purchases of noncritical items (for example, furniture, a flat-screen television or remodeling) whenever possible. Stop buying on credit. - Do not drop insurance coverage. It may cause more stress later if you are involved in an accident, storm, etc. - Do not cancel medical and dental appointments. Canceling such appoint- The second count in the indictment alleges that on or around Sept. 9, 2008, Wesley Worthington sold a Smith and Wesson .38 caliber revolver to an undercover federal agent “knowing and having reasonable cause to believe the undercover agent, at the time of the sale, did not reside in Arkansas.” The Nashville couple will be arraigned March 30 in Texarkana before Honorable Barry A. Bryant. ments may prove to be more costly long term. Some medical and dental professionals may be willing to negotiate payment schedules if details are worked out in advance. * Which bills do you pay first? If you can pay some bills but not all, set priorities. After paying for secured loans and basic essentials, pay those bills that: * Maintain vital services (utility, phone, transportation, insurance) * Have the highest interest rate * Cost the most to delay (bills that carry late penalties or may lead to repossession or disconnect/reconnect charges) * May be collected vigorously Be wary of quick, shortterm, high-interest loans. If you miss just one payment, you could become saddled with long-term, high-interest debt payments that seem to never end. Bankruptcy is not a good option. Financial institutions are also affected by the economy, and as the funds they have available for loans become more restricted, a good credit report for those wanting to borrow money becomes more essential. A bankruptcy will lower your credit rating for years, making it more difficult for you to buy essentials like a home or a car. Finally, use management tools. Take an inventory of your resources. Know what your net worth is. There are many tools available through the Howard County Cooperative Extension Service that is free of charge that will help you manage your finances. Emergency savings are essential. Those attempting to get out of debt may fail to realize that they should have emergency funds available. These funds may help ensure that a debt repayment plan does not have to be postponed for unexpected household expenses or other emergency expenditures. Reduce consumer debt. Don’t ignore your monthly payments on outstanding loans. Make a list of all your debts. Analyze your debt payment options by utilizing a program such as the online program PowerPay (https://powerpay.org). Determine how much you owe to each creditor, and then print out a plan for making power payments until you are completely out of debt.

Murfreesboro mayor to participate in food delivery March 20 MURFREESBORO - Central Arkansas Development Council Murfreesb o ro S e n i o r A c t i v i t y Center, an organization devoted to ending senior hunger, will host Murfreesboro Mayor Travis Branch in an event to rally against senior hunger. The mayor will participate in delivering meals to home-bound and disabled seniors on Tues., March 20 in the Murfreesboro/Pike County area. This event is the annual “We Are Meals on Wheels,” outreach campaign for the Murfreesboro Senior Activity Center. This national effort focuses on ending senior hunger and recruiting individuals and groups to get involved by volunteering or donating to the Murfreesboro Senior Activity Center. The center helps hundreds of elderly every year in Pike County through the Meals On Wheels program, a home-meal delivery service. “I know people - we all do - who are aging and don’t have the support that they need,” Vicky Hutson, site manager at the center, said. “We can make a difference in the lives of our local seniors and the more than six million people in the US who are in that situation through this service. Every bit of support helps.” “CADC is committed to working toward the day when no senior goes hungry,” said CADC executive director Larry Cogburn.” The Murfreesboro Senior Activity Center is located at 120 E. Court, Suite A in Murfreesboro. The program gives older adults support and encouragement to reach new levels of independence, fostering educational and emotional wellness for persons 60 and older. Activities include exercise, social interaction, nutrition, transportation services, recreational events, book clubs, computer training, and more. CADC is a private nonprofit community action agency that was formed in 1965 to fight and win the “War on Poverty.” The mission of CADC is to improve the quality of life and build strong communities in Arkansas. For more information, call the center at 870-285-2312. HORNE and Recreation Commission.

Taylor, a sophomore at Dierks High School, recently won a state FCCLA competition at the annual STAR events held in Hot Springs. Her presentation chronicled her shadowing experience with an Algebra II teacher. She is a student in Dierks’ new Orientation to Teaching class taught by Adriana Hogg. Hogg stated that she was very proud of Taylor and the rest of the students who competed. All of the school board members expressed their admiration for Taylor and her accomplishments. Hogg asked the board mem- bers to provide $3,630.45 needed for her and Taylor to attend the national FCCLA meeting in Florida to be held this summer. She stated that the FCCLA officers and the FCCLA district president Hailey Lingo will also attend, but they will raise money through fundraisers to pay their expenses. The board voted unanimously to provide the funds requested for Hogg and Taylor’s trip. The board also received some sad news as Pat Bissell, Sheila Tedder and Sharon Kesterson announced their retirement following the 2011-12 school year by way of letter.

Sebren is a 1974 Dierks High School graduate who retired from the United States Air Force in 2008 after serving for 21 and a half years. He and his wife, Anita, have three children and are members of Holly Creek Missionary Baptist Church. Sebren said he became interested in filling the role after he was approached by Mounts and fellow alderman John Hill. “I thought on it a couple of days and said I’d do it,” he recalled during a brief interview following Monday’s meeting. Sebren will serve on the council until November, when he is subject to reelection. In other business Monday, aldermen voted unanimously in favor of an ordinance requiring residents of the city to label their home with numbers assigned by the Howard County 911 Office. The ordinance, which goes into effect next month, requires that the assigned numbers be visible from the nearest roadway or posted at the end of a residence’s driveway. Mounts said he proposed the new law on behalf of area emergency workers who use the numbers to locate the scenes of accidents and other incidents.

The Nashville News | Online at http://www.nashvillenews.org | Call: 1-888-845-6397 White Cliffs News Mineral Springs R MSSD accepting bids for high tech track timing system TERRICA HENDRIX Editor MINERAL SPRINGS – The school district is now accepting bids for a timing system, the superintendent said. The Mineral Springs Saratoga School District voted unanimously to allow Superintendent Max Adcock to accept the lowest bid for a high tech track timing system. Adcock said on Wednesday that he has received three bids for the timing system and they are all around $17,000. In order to qualify for the state track meet, athletes must compete at a meet that uses a high tech track timing system. During the regular board meeting Monday evening, the board also accepted Adcock’s recommendation to implement a policy that would pay the family for unused sick days of a deceased contracted employee. The district purchased two used school buses for $45,500. 209 N. Main, Nashville, AR 71852 Credit Cards shown above accepted at participating stores THURSDAY March 15, 2012 Ozan domestic battery call nets 3 arrests JOHNSON’S CREW With Mary Crosslin ev. Germany kept his regular appointment at Mount Zion church on Sunday. He continued his series on prayer, praise and thanksgiving. Even in our praying it is proper to give God praise and thanksgiving even before the answer comes or while it is on the way. Mount Zion culminated Black History Month with a country feast after church service on Sunday. We remembered the great outdoor feast our forefathers used to have with many of their special dishes. Ms. Carrie Walls, from Shreveport, was our special guest on Sunday. We enjoyed her presence. One of our oldest residences, Hollis Faye Willis, went home to be with the Lord last week. She was 95-years-old. We are thankful for the contribution she made to the community. Her funeral service will be held at Scott’s Memorial Church in Paraloma, on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. with Hicks Funeral Home directing. A good God Bless You from the Jones and Ware family for your prayers and support during the home going of their beloved Valerie Jones. Thank you so much. Sunday was the first day of Daylight Saving Time, and I made it to church on time. Now we know that spring is in the air. The grass is almost ready for its first cut in my back yard. Some have already given their lawns the first cut. My friend Virginia Scott, has not only cut her lawn but planted her garden. What I don’t know, but I sure would like to share it. Christian Refresher: 3 John 1:2, Matthew 7:7-11 Scofield Study Bible: Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. Ask, and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. “For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. “Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? “Or if he ask for a fish, will he give him a serpent? “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask! Love is the Key! Page 3-B JAMES SINGLETON Hempstead Co.
