Search for rape suspect continues BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
After a long night of searching, the hunt for jail escapee Garnett Denzell Hughes continued Saturday. At 2:20 p.m., Sheriff Charles Rinehart and others were in the wooded area behind the Alcorn County Regional Correctional Facility seeking any sign of the two-

time escapee. The sheriff said officials had been discussing whether it is likely Hughes, who is considered dangerous, is still in the area or had managed to leave. “If he stayed out last night, he would have froze to death,” said Rinehart. An early cold snap saw a low temperature of 23 in the city Saturday morning.
Hughes, who was awaiting trial for rape, escaped from the South Harper Road facility Friday afternoon, leaving behind an injured jailer who was taken to Magnolia Regional Health Center for treatment. Rinehart said he had not had an opportunity to speak with the jailer, but it appeared he had suffered a broken nose and other head injuries.
Since Friday’s escape, the Corinth Police Department has responded to a number of reported sightings in the city, but none have panned out, said Police Chief Ralph Dance.

Local officials are doing all the right things to attract new industry to the Crossroads area, according to TVA’s General Manager of Global Business Heidi Smith. While in Corinth recently for the 20th Annual Meeting of The Alliance, Smith toured the area’s newest industrial park -- the more than 400 acres located off the Kimberly Clark Parkway east of Corinth. “What’s happening in Corinth is very good,” said Smith. “Officials are doing everything needed to be competitive in this market. Over time companies will locate here.” Smith is responsible for TVA’s Economic Development’s business recruitment and retention and community development

Red Green Market offers unique gifts BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Before Black Friday, there’s Red Green Saturday. The final and biggest Green Market of the year — the Red Green Market — will offer an opportunity to do some Christmas shopping next Saturday. It is set for 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the depot. Among the sellers who never miss a market is Glenda Newcomb of Iuka, who, along with husband Chester, offers a variety of handmade items from crosses to tin can flowers to signs made from barn wood.
It wasn’t until ending her daycare of 22 years that she began to focus on producing handmade goods. Her husband had begun over the road truck driving, and she would travel with him every other week. “The weeks I stayed at home, I was lost,” said Newcomb. “That’s when I started. It filled the space I had.” She likes to use old materials including barn wood for her creations. Living on her
grandfather’s old home place, she found an ample supply. “His barn was across the road from us, and it was falling down,” said Newcomb. “They were going to have it torn down, so we took it down piece by piece and saved all that lumber for my projects. I like the old stuff like that better than I do new lumber. Every time I’m working on that piece of

25-year-old Booneville native. “There has been a learning curve, but I have received help from a lot of great people.” The people of the facility is what lured Tucker to the job. “They made the difference for me,” he said. “The people here really care about this place … it’s a great place with great people and unlimited potential.” Tucker, the oldest son of Daniel and Terry Tucker, came to Corinth following a job as a marketing analyst for a healthcare company in Nashville, Tennessee.
“I thought leaving Nashville would be tough, but the move has been great,” said Tucker, a 2007 graduate of Booneville High School. “There is never a dull moment around here … it has been a lot of fun.” One of his marketing goals is to let the public in on the secret of the hospital’s success — its people. “I want to tell as many of their stories as possible,” said the marketing director. “I want the community to see our doctors, surgeons, nurses and other employees are some of the best in the country.”
It shouldn’t take the hospital’s newest employee long to express all the hospital has to offer. “I like to talk and deal with people,” he said. “I hope to get rid of the rural hospital way of thinking and let people see they don’t have to go anywhere else for their healthcare needs.” While Tucker tries to figure the perfect route to lead the facility, he appreciates the chance he has been given. “It is rare to find something like this close to home,” said Tucker. “The hospital is a better fit for the job I really want to do.”

vice joined the hunt for Hughes late Friday. A helicopter was brought in from DeSoto County and used after dark. Hughes was arrested in August 2013 at the scene of a rape at a Beechwood Circle residence in the West Hills Subdivision. DNA evidence would later lead to Hughes also being charged in connection
with a rape that occurred 10 days earlier on the grounds of Crossroads Regional Park, where he held a couple at gunpoint. He also faces kidnapping and armed robbery charges. Hughes’ trial had been set for this past week, but it was continued to the next term of circuit court.

Today in History Today is Sunday, Nov. 16, the 320th day of 2014. There are 45 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 16, 1914, the newly created Federal Reserve Banks opened in 12 cities.
On this date: In 1776, British troops captured Fort Washington in New York during the American Revolution. In 1885, Canadian rebel leader Louis Riel was executed for high treason. In 1917, Georges Clemenceau again became prime minister of France. In 1933, the United States and the Soviet Union established diplomatic relations. In 1939, mob boss Al Capone, ill with syphilis, was released from prison after serving 71⁄2 years for tax evasion and failure to file tax returns. In 1946, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) was founded at the conclusion of a conference in London. In 1959, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The Sound of Music” opened on Broadway. In 1960, Academy Award-winning actor Clark Gable died in Los Angeles at age 59. In 1966, Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard was acquitted in his second trial of murdering his pregnant wife, Marilyn, in 1954. In 1973, Skylab 4, carrying a crew of three astronauts, was launched from Cape Canaveral on an 84-day mission. In 1989, six Jesuit priests, a housekeeper and her daughter were slain by army troops at the University of Central America Jose Simeon Canas in El Salvador.
Ten years ago: President George W. Bush picked National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice to be his new secretary of state, succeeding Colin Powell. Al-Jazeera television said it had received a video showing a hooded militant shooting a blindfolded woman in the head; it’s believed the woman was kidnapped British aid worker Margaret Hassan. Sunni Muslims in Iraq expressed anger over videotape showing the fatal shooting of a wounded and apparently unarmed man in a Fallujah mosque by a U.S. Marine. (The Marine Corps decided not to court-martial the unidentified corporal.)
Five years ago: President Barack Obama, on his firstever trip to China, gave his hosts a pointed, unexpected nudge to stop censoring Internet access, but the message was not widely heard in China, where the president’s words were blocked online and shown on only one regional television channel. A U.S. government health task force suggested most women wait until age 50 to get mammograms, conflicting with the American Cancer Society’s advice to start at 40.

Across the Region Competitor takes action against Mississippi Silicon BURNSVILLE — The legal action taken by a competitor to stop the construction of the metal plant, Mississippi Silicon, will take a turn in December when the case goes before the U.S. District judge in Aberdeen. The competitor, Miami based Globe Metallurgical, claims the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality “rushed” to issue building permits for Mississippi Silicon. Globe Metallurgical has a plant in nearby Selma, Alabama. In an earlier Tishomingo County chancery court case, Globe Metallurgical argued that Mississippi Silicon improperly denied to appeal the permit, while Mississippi Silicon argued Globe Metallurgical waited past

Wilkie to headline MSU forum on governance STARKVILLE — Mississippi State’s political science and public administration department is announcing the first guest for a new public lecture series at the university. The Lamar Conerly Governance Forum debuts Monday, Nov. 17 with an address by author and former reporter Curtis Wilkie, now a member of the University of Mississippi journalism faculty. Free and open to all, “Mississippi: A Writer’s Dream” begins at 2 p.m. in the Swalm Chemical Engineering Building’s fourth-floor suite. Wilkie is a Corinth High School graduate and 1963 UM journalism graduate. To focus on contemporary issues in governance, legal affairs and public policy, the Conerly Governance Forum Lecture Series is made possible with the support of its namesake and his wife Tracy. A 1971 MSU accounting/pre-law graduate,
Lamar Conerly is a partner in the Destin, Florida, law firm of Conerly, Bowman and Dykes LLP. Long active in university affairs, he is a former national MSU Alumni Association president who also was honored in 2004 with selec- Wilkie tion as an Alumni Fellow of the College of Business. Wilkie has a storied career. Early on, he was a reporter and editor of the Clarksdale Press Register at a time when the Mississippi civil rights movement was at its height. From 1971-74, he was reporter and editor of the News-Journal in Wilmington, Delaware. Honored with a congressional fellowship by the American Political Science Association, he spent two years in Washington, D.C., as a legislative aide for Sen. Walter F. Mondale (D-Minn.) and Rep. John Brademas
(D-Ind.). Prior to retiring from professional reporting at end of the 2000 presidential campaign, Wilkie had covered seven presidential campaigns. In addition to serving as chief of the Boston Globe’s Washington bureau and White House correspondent, he led in establishing the Globe’s Middle East bureau, from which he covered numerous wars and conflicts for more than a decade. In 1993, he opened the Globe’s Southern bureau in New Orleans, where he covered regional and national affairs until his retirement. In 2007, he was named Overby Fellow in Journalism at Ole Miss and has served since as a visiting professor. For more, see www.overbycenter.org/ curtiswilkieprofile.htm. As an author, Wilkie perhaps is best known for
“The Fall of the House of Zeus: The Rise and Fall of America’s Most Powerful Trial Lawyer.” Released in 2011, it tells the story of the federal investigation, arrest, trail and conviction of fellow Oxfordian and superlawyer Richard F. “Dickie” Scruggs. He also is the author of “Dixie: A Personal Odyssey Through Events That Shaped the Modern South,” and, most recently, “Assassins, Eccentrics, Politicians, and Other Persons of Interest: Fifty Pieces from the Road.” He is co-author of “Arkansas Mischief: Birth of a National Scandal” and a contributor to “City Adrift: New Orleans Before and After Katrina.” MSU political science instructor Whit Waide, a forum co-coordinator, said Wilkie was chosen specifically as the inaugural Conerly Forum speaker “not only because of his monumental presence in American political journalism, but also because we believe he is a good representa-
tive of the type of person we are seeking as future lecturers.” Waide also expressed appreciation for Conerly’s support, which he said gives the department and university opportunities to bring four of the “best communicators of American thought” to campus each year. He said the series “offers a unique educational experience beyond the classroom that is vital to learning not just for students, but for professors as well.” “We are so thankful for Mr. Conerly’s generosity and the vision he lends to the series,” Waide said. “At its core, the Conerly Governance Forum enables us to bring a much bigger slice of the world to the students of Mississippi State, the future leaders of Mississippi and beyond.”
ing to locate. Today they look for certified sites only, which means a city needs to have environmental soil testing complete and a plan in place,” she said. “Those important steps have already been completed here.” With product and process in place, Smith said a good sales team is a must. “The team at The Alliance is strong,” she said. “This city has good leadership and an even better sales team.” In the last 12 months, nine industrial prospects have toured the new site. Project Falcon came close to locating their $150 million, 250 jobs project in Corinth, but the Crossroads lost to another community.
“The area Project Falcon ended up in had been trying to development the same land for more than ten years,” said Smith. “They had been doing everything Corinth has been doing, only a little longer.” Smith also noted the recent development of an
industrial park in Chattanooga, Tenn. “Those officials worked for 20 years to development a property, finally attracting VW to build an auto manufacturing facility,” Smith said. “I’m not saying it will take Corinth 20 years, but it will take a lot of persistent and pa-
tience.” “I work in a seven state region and not all communities are taking the right steps to ensure sites are ready for industry,” she added. “Corinth is doing it — you’re invested in yourself and in your community. It will pay off.”

efforts. “Economic development is truly a team effort. It takes everyone in the community -- public officials, citizens and the development team,” said Smith. “Corinth has a really good team in place with The Alliance and Gary Chandler. They continue to do the right things with the product and process in this area.” Smith said an area’s product is buildings and land offered for development. Process is ways of travel offered including highway, water and rail, a key asset for Corinth according to Smith. “Ten years ago, a community could show a piece of farmland to potential companies look-

Corinth, Miss.
Our View Saving The Duncan House a major score for historic preservation National Park Service Ranger Tom Parson with the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center took a group of folks recently on a tour of the site locations of batteries in Corinth during the Civil War. Pointing to the exact spots, he would point to current day locations of houses and businesses. Once, the park ranger stood in the middle of a paved street. “We are inside the battery,” he told the group. The history buffs and history lovers were amazed such sacred places were no more. One older gentleman even said he recalled playing on some earthworks when he was a child. History preservationists have scored two big victories in recent months. First came the City of Corinth giving the South Corinth School property to the Siege and Battle of Corinth Commission. Eventually the area where heavy fighting occurred during the Battle of Corinth will be in the hands of the National Park Service. A second major victory happened when when local businessman and civic leader Kenneth Williams purchased The Duncan House property at 810 Polk Street. Built circa 1858, the home was used as headquarters by various generals during the Civil War and is one of only four homes that remain in Corinth from the Civil War. It has National Historic Landmark status. With preservation in mind, Williams purchased the house when it went on the market a few weeks ago. He had heard that a potential buyer wanted to demolish it. Williams shies away from the spotlight and his intentions only went public because he had to get city approval to make changes on the property, including moving the house. The city gave approval, and he is waiting on approval by the National Park Service. But this community should be forever indebted to him for saving this historic landmark and making an investment in preservation. The new property owner is working with a historical architect and the Mississippi Department of Archives and History on the project. He told the city board in a written statement his goal is to turn the exterior of the house to its original look and make it a “drive-by tourist destination.” The Duncan House was formerly located on the southeast corner of the same block and was moved to the current location around 1920. Williams’ list of improvements he hopes to make includes removing the long porch and adding a portico; changing the two front windows to 21 panes each; paving the drive with bricks for parking; removing the east-west mound on the north side of the lot; burying the incoming power lines; placing new sidewalks; installing all certification plaques; planning for the yard with period shrubs and adding a white picket fence. This is exciting news for Corinth and the preservation of its rich history. Thanks, Kenneth, for what you have done and continue to do for the community you love and call home.

A verse to share “And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” — Acts 23:1
The oil weapon in America’s hands In July of 1941, after Japan occupied French Indochina, the Roosevelt administration froze Japan’s assets in the United States. Denied hard cash, Japan could not buy the U.S. oil upon which the empire depended for survival. Seeing the Dutch East Indies as her only other source, Japan prepared to invade. But first she had to eliminate the sole strategic threat to her occupation of the East Indies – the U.S. battle fleet at Pearl Harbor. FDR’s cutoff of oil to Japan was thus a primary cause of WWII in the Pacific, which led to hundreds of thousands of U.S. war dead, the destruction of Japan, Mao’s triumph in China and a U.S. war in Korea. A second stunning use of the oil weapon came in 1973. Arab members of OPEC imposed an embargo in retaliation for Nixon’s rescue of Israel with an airlift in the Yom Kippur war. Long gas lines helped to bring Nixon down. Now the oil weapon appears to be back in America’s hand. Due to the substitution of natural gas for oil in heating homes and buildings, horizontal drilling, and hydraulic fracking, which enables us to bring oil and gas out of shale rock in places like North Dakota, U.S. production has exploded. We now produce more oil than Saudi Arabia and the benefits are not only economic, but geostrategic.
Cuba excepted, there is no more hostile regime in Latin America than VenezuPatrick ela’s NicoBuchanan las Maduro, the succesColumnist sor to Hugo Chavez. Oil accounts for 95 percent of his nation’s exports. Iran is almost wholly dependent upon oil sales for hard currency. Russia is the oil and gas supplier for much of Europe. With the price of oil having fallen from over $100 a barrel to below $80 this week, all three nations are suffering plunges in revenue. The United States and Europe are also punishing Russia and Iran with sanctions on their energy sectors. Iran’s production has fallen sharply. Oil-drilling equipment and the latest U.S. drilling technology that Russia has sought to bring on stream its vast Arctic reserves are being denied to her. As the oil weapon was used by us against Imperial Japan and by the Saudis against us, we are now wielding this sword. We should remember that it is double-edged. While it would seem natural for Saudi Arabia, the largest producer in OPEC, to cut production to tighten the oil market and let prices firm up and rise, the Saudis have continued to pump as
the price has fallen. What is Riyadh’s game? Is the Saudi strategy to let prices fall to where it is no longer profitable for Americans to begin new fracking? Are the Saudis thinking of doing to the new oil-producing champion, USA, what we are doing to Venezuela, Russia and Iran? Riyadh may want to let the price of oil sink below where it makes sense for energy companies to prospect for new sources of oil or invest more billions in expanding production. Are the Saudis out to cripple us with an oil glut? Today, not only are Iran and Iraq producing below potential, so, too, is Libya. And we have been bombing ISIS’ oil facilities in Syria. A contrarian’s question: Would we not be better off if these countries not only restored oil production, but also expanded production and put more oil on the market than they do today? Demand creates supply, and a world oil market where there is more supply than demand would seem to be to America’s benefit. For we remain the world’s largest consumer of petroleum products. And surely it is to our benefit to enlarge both the reserves and production of oil and gas in North America. Price pays a huge role in creating, and shrinking, supply. And price, Adam Smith notwithstanding, is something we can control
and manipulate, even as China manipulates its currency. In “America’s New Oil Weapon” in National Review, Arthur Herman of the Hudson Institute urges the United States to take bold steps to increase our supplies of oil and gas. We should relax the rules on drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, which has 10 billion barrels of oil locked up. We should use as an economic weapon against OPEC the 700 million barrels in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. We should allow the export of oil from the United States to enable us to cope with OPEC cutbacks. We should build the Keystone XL pipeline, and the other oil and gas pipelines between us and Canada now sitting in limbo. What Herman is urging upon us is a new nationalism, a new way of thinking about international economics that puts the U.S. and its allies first, and uses our economic leverage to advance national rather than global interests. Something the GOP Congress might think about when Barack Obama asks them to surrender their right to amend trade treaties with fast track.

Thank you, Jonathan Gruber The epic search of the Greek philosopher Diogenes for an honest man is finally over. His name is Jonathan Gruber, an MIT economist once known as an intellectual architect of Obamacare, although his status is being rapidly downgraded by the law’s supporters with every one of his uncomfortably frank utterances about President Barack Obama’s signature initiative. Video surfaced of Gruber saying at a panel discussion at the University of Pennsylvania last year that the law was written in a deceptive, nontransparent way to exploit “the stupidity of the American voter.” Gruber swiftly went on MSNBC to explain that his comments should be discounted because he was speaking “off the cuff.” Then two other videos surfaced of him saying much the same thing at different venues. Calling the American public stupid appears to have been one of Gruber’s favorite rhetorical tropes. At one of his appearances, his audience can be heard laughing appreciatively. H.L. Mencken famously wrote that no one has “ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence

of the great masses of the plain people.” Or, Gruber might add, ever failed to pass Rich major social Lowry l e g i s l a t i o n by doing the National same. Review His impolitic remarks now have some Obama supporters suggesting that Gruber – one of the most influential health-care wonks in the country, who was integral to crafting the Massachusetts precursor to Obamacare and then Obamacare itself – is just some random, poorly spoken guy. This denies Gruber his due. He has done us all a favor by affording us an unvarnished look into the progressive mind, which values complexity over simplicity, favors indirect taxes and impositions on the American public so their costs can be hidden, and has a dim view of the average American. Complexity is a staple of liberal policymaking. It is a product of its scale and reach, but also of the imperative to hide the ball. Taxing and spending and redistributive schemes tend to be un-
popular, so clever ways have to be found to deny that they are happening. This is what Gruber was getting at. One reason Obamacare was so convoluted is that its supporters didn’t want to straightforwardly admit how much the law was raising taxes and leveraging the young and healthy to subsidize everyone else. Gruber crowed about the exertions undertaken to make an unpopular tax on expensive health-insurance plans, the so-called Cadillac tax, more palatable. It was levied on employers instead of employees. No one realized, Gruber explained, that the tax would be functionally the same even if not directly imposed on workers. This wasn’t a one-off deception. This kind of sleight of hand is crucial to the progressive project, which always involves imposing taxes, regulations and mandates at one remove from the average person so he or she won’t realize that the costs are passed down regardless. Most liberals would never come out and call Americans stupid in a public forum, like Gruber did. But the debate between conservatives and liberals on health-care policy and much else comes down to how much average

Americans can be trusted to make decisions on their own without the guiding, correcting hand of government. An assumption that Americans are incompetent is woven into the left’s worldview. It is reluctant to entrust individuals with free choice for fear they will exercise it poorly and irresponsibly. So Gruber deserves to be listened to, even if he ultimately got it wrong. The public is smarter than he and other Obamacare supporters give it credit for. It has never believed the magical, deliberately deceptive promises about Obamacare, or supported the law that continues to be a drag on the Democratic Party. Rather than congratulating themselves on their cleverness, the law’s architects might better reflect on how, even with crushing majorities in the House and the Senate, they had to lie and obfuscate to get Obamacare passed. That is damning commentary, not on the American public, but their misbegotten handiwork. (Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.)

Animal cosmetics testing ban sought WASHINGTON — Hoping to build off recent bans in Europe and India, opponents of animal testing in cosmetics plan to make a big push for a similar prohibition in the United States. Last year, the European Union banned the sale of new cosmetic products containing ingredients tested on animals. India followed with a similar ban. A House bill introduced this year by Virginia Democrat Jim Moran won the support of more than 140 cosmetic companies — including Paul Mitchell and LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics.
Hopes, fears follow health law sign-up WASHINGTON — The second sign-up season under President Barack Obama’s health overhaul opened Saturday, and the hope is that consumers will have a positive experience this time. The fear is that entrenched political opposition and renewed legal challenges could yet collapse the program. With 7 million paying customers in new insurance markets, the Affordable Care Act is helping to reduce the number of uninsured Americans. But “Obamacare” is struggling to win hearts and minds. The latest Associated Press-GfK poll finds that, if forced to choose between repealing the law and implementing it, 56 percent of Americans
would repeal it. Only 41 percent would carry it out.
Penn State head to review abuse report STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — The president of Penn State University says he will review the Freeh Report, a document regarding the school’s response to the Jerry Sandusky molestation scandal that has divided the university and its alumni since it was issued more than two years ago. President Eric Barron vowed Saturday in a statement on the university’s website that he would conduct “a thorough review” of the report and supporting materials. “The contents of the report have led to questions by some in the Penn State community. I do not want people to believe that Penn State is hiding something. I feel strongly about this,” he said. “For this important reason, and since I was not here during its completion, I will conduct my own review,” he said, vowing “all deliberate speed” although there was “considerable documentation to analyze.” The report produced for the university in 2012 by a team led by former FBI director Louis Freeh concluded that high-ranking university leaders concealed key facts about Sandusky’s abuse of children to avoid bad publicity. It included more than 100 recommendations for change that have been adopted by the university, from governance to child safety.
What has rankled many were the criticisms of former coach Joe Paterno, who died a few months after Sandusky’s arrest in 2011, as well as then-president Graham Spanier, former athletic director Tim Curley and former vice president Gary Schultz.
Cosby’s Letterman guest spot canceled NEW YORK — Bill Cosby’s upcoming appearance on CBS’ “Late Show with David Letterman” has been canceled amid a growing uproar over allegations that he sexually assaulted several women in past decades. Cosby spokesman David Brokaw confirmed Friday night that Cosby would not appear next Wednesday as previously scheduled. He did not say why. “Late Show” representative Kimberly IzzoEmmet said, “We can’t comment on the guest booking process.” She said Regis Philbin would be the replacement guest. Another canceled engagement, on “The Queen Latifah Show” on Oct. 30, was characterized by that show as a postponement granted at Cosby’s request. Barbara Bowman, one of Cosby’s accusers, has recently leveled allegations of sexual assault by the comic in interviews and in a Washington Post online column, writing that “Cosby won my trust as a 17-year-old aspiring actress in 1985, brainwashed me into viewing him as a father figure, and then assaulted me multiple times.”

Solaplast opens doors in Lauderdale MERIDIAN — Solaplast, a company that converts algae from commercial catfish ponds into plastics, has opened a plant in Lauderdale County in East Mississippi. The company is a division of Algix LLC in Athens, Georgia. CEO Mike Van Drunen, who along with other company representatives hosted an open house of the facility on Friday, says the plant will produce millions of pounds of bioplastic resin, which will then be shipped to factories to be used in their products. Van Drunen says the company expects to provide up to 100 jobs over the next three years.
4 jailers, 20 inmates could be charged DEKALB — Kemper County Sheriff James Moore says local jailers and inmates are facing charges after a sixmonth internal investigation into contraband being brought into the local regional lockup. Moore tells WTOK-TV in Meridian that four guards and around 20 inmates could face charges. Moore says the investigation has also resulted in a dozen other guards quitting or being fired. Moore declined to identify those involved. Among the contraband seized at the Kemper/ Neshoba Regional Prison in DeKalb were real and synthetic marijuana, tobacco, cellphones and their accessories.
Oil field service firm coming to state FERNWOOD — Oil field service firm Anchor Drilling Fluids USA Inc. has announced it will locate a warehouse in Fernwood, Mississippi, in Pike County. The Tulsa, Oklahomabased company makes the so-called “mud” that keeps drill bits going and bore holes operational. The Enterprise-Journal reports company CEO Robert West says the company initially will get much of its resources from Houston. If business is good, West says the company will build an oil-based mud plant. Anchor Drilling Fluids USA has branches in 18 states, and its products are used in shale plays across the country. This is the company’s first foray into the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale region.
Sales tax collection up in Olive Branch OLIVE BRANCH, Miss. — Olive Branch Mayor Scott Phillips delivered a rosy picture of commerce in his first state-of-thecity address to business and city leaders. Phillips said Wednesday sales tax collections were up by $100,000 in October compared to last October. The Commercial Appeal reports the total collected last month was $731,828. Phillips credited part of the increase to new businesses such as Five Below, a Philadelphiabased value retailer that opened a distribution center in Olive Branch last year. He also pointed to the reinvestment

Store workers stage robbery, police say BILOXI — Biloxi police say two employees at a retail store staged a robbery and took the money from a night bank deposit. Sgt. O’Neal Adams tells The Sun Herald Gabrealle Elaine Cox, of Biloxi, and Jarmel Anthony Harness, of Gulfport called authorities at 12:14 a.m. Thursday and reported they were robbed in the parking lot of a business. Adams says Cox and Harness told authorities a masked man with a handgun approached them and took the bank bag that contained the night deposit. When questioned, Adams said, Harness and Cox admitted to police that they, along with an unnamed accomplice, staged the robbery and took the undisclosed amount of cash.
Ex-firefighter gets 2 years for child porn PASCAGOULA — A 27-year-old Latimer man will spend two years in prison for downloading 32 images of children engaged in sex acts. The Sun Herald reports Richard Thompson, a volunteer firefighter who also worked with the Explorer Scouts, pleaded guilty in April to six charges of exploitation of a child, which is how a child pornography charge is defined in state law. Jackson County deputies arrested him in March 2010.

mali pirates. That episode was featured in the Tom Hanks movie “Captain Phillips.” And he was part of the group that helped retrieve Marcus Luttrell, the sole survivor of a four-man team attacked in 2005 while tracking a Taliban leader in Afghanistan. The Luttrell episode was featured in the 2013 film “Lone Survivor.” Long before those operations, O’Neill came to embody the dramatic transformation of the role of U.S. special operations over the last 13 years. O’Neill joined the Navy in 1995, and in those pre-9/11 days, the SEALs did a lot of training with foreign militaries. Highrisk operations in remote locations, let alone gun fights, were few and far between. After the U.S. went to war against al-Qaida, the SEALs and other elite units were called upon for one combat mission after another — in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. O’Neill believes he killed more than 30 people.

WASHINGTON — Former Navy SEAL Robert O’Neill, who says he fired the shots that killed Osama bin Laden, played a role in some of the most consequential combat missions of the post-9/11 era, including three depicted in Hollywood movies. And now he’s telling the world about them. By doing so, O’Neill has almost certainly increased his earning power on the speaking circuit. He also may have put himself and his family at greater risk. And he has earned the enmity of some current and former SEALs by violating their code of silence. But O’Neill, winner of two Silver and five Bronze Stars, makes no apologies for any of that. In a wide-ranging interview Friday with The Associated Press, he said he believes the American public has a right to more details about the operation that killed the al-Qaida leader and other important military adventures. And he insisted
he is taking pains not to divulge classified information or compromise the tactics SEALs use to get the drop on their enemies. “The last thing I want to do is endanger anybody,” he said. “I think the good (of going public) outweighs the bad.” O’Neill, who last week began discussing his role in the bin Laden mission, was in Washington for a round of television and media appearances that drew both praise and criticism. After helicoptering to the compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, assaulting the house and killing three men and a woman, some of the SEALs reached the third floor, where a CIA analyst had told O’Neill that bin Laden would be. O’Neill followed an unnamed point man into bin Laden’s bedroom, he told the AP, and the point man tackled two women, believing they had a bomb, in what O’Neill calls an incredibly selfless act. “A few feet in front of
me, on two feet, was Osama bin Laden,” O’Neill said. “I shot him three times in the head and I killed him.” Many are impressed by the deed, but not everyone is impressed with the telling. “We work in secret and we pride ourselves on that, so if somebody comes out and spills this much, it angers the rest of us,” Jonathan Gilliam, a former SEAL, said in an interview. But Debra Burlingame, whose brother Charles Burlingame was the pilot of the hijacked plane that crashed into the Pentagon, has said that O’Neill’s descriptions were gratifying to the relatives of victims at a 9/11 museum ceremony where he donated the uniform he was wearing. O’Neill’s key role in the 2011 bin Laden raid was hardly his only brush with a high-profile mission. He was on the 2009 mission to rescue the captain of the merchant ship Maersk Alabama, who was taken hostage by So-

Funeral services for Loyd Dempsey Dees, 87, were held Friday at Magnolia Funeral Home Chapel of Memories with burial at Forrest Memorial Park Cemetery with Masonic Rites. Mr. Dees died Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2014, at his home. Born Nov. 6, 1927, he was operation manager for 20 years at Levi Strauss. He was a U.S. Army veteran, serving in World War II.

BOSTON — From Boston to Los Angeles, police departments are bracing for large demonstrations when a grand jury decides whether to indict a white police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri. The St. Louis County grand jury, which has been meeting since Aug. 20, is expected to decide this month whether Officer Darren Wilson is charged with a crime for killing Michael Brown after ordering the 18-yearold and a friend to stop walking in the street on Aug. 9. The shooting has led to tension with police and a string of unruly protests there and brought worldwide attention to the formerly obscure St. Louis suburb, where more than half the population is black and yet few police officers are. For some cities, a de-
cision in the racially charged case will, inevitably, reignite long-simmering debates over local police relations with minority communities. “It’s definitely on our radar,” said Lt. Michael McCarthy, police spokesman in Boston, where police leaders met privately Wednesday to discuss preparations. “Common sense tells you the timeline is getting close. We’re just trying to prepare in case something does step off, so we are ready to go with it.” In Los Angeles, rocked by riots in 1992 after the acquittal of police officers in the videotaped beating of Rodney King, police officials say they’ve been in touch with their counterparts in Missouri, where Gov. Jay Nixon and St. Louis-area law enforcement held a news conference this week on their own preparations. “Naturally, we always pay attention,” said
Cmdr. Andrew Smith, a police spokesman. “We saw what happened when there were protests over there and how oftentimes protests spill from one part of the country to another.” In Las Vegas, police joined pastors and other community leaders this week to call for restraint at a rally tentatively planned northwest of the casino strip when a decision comes. And in Berkeley, Missouri, a town neighboring Ferguson, officials this week passed out fliers urging residents to be prepared for unrest just as they would a major storm — with plenty of food, water and medicine in case they’re unable to leave home for several days. In Boston, a group called “Black Lives Matter,” which also has chapters in other major cities, is organizing a rally in front of the police dis-

trict office in the Roxbury neighborhood the day after an indictment decision. In October, the group, as part of a larger coalition, rallied in front of police headquarters protesting the department’s “racially biased stop, frisk, and search practices” and expressing solidarity with protesters in Ferguson. Organizers at the time pointed to an American Civil Liberties Union report that concluded Boston’s black residents are more likely to be stopped, questioned or searched by police, an assertion the department has strongly disputed, saying it was based on old data. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, police are expecting demonstrations after having dealt with a string of angry protests following a March police shooting of a homeless camper and more than 40 police shootings since 2010.

Enjoy life — it goes by too fast Do you know anyone who isn’t happy unless they are miserable? Then there are those who complain incessantly about anything and everything. Bryan To them, Golden there are only probDare to Live lems along Without Limits with an endless litany of things to worry about. It’s amazing that some people seemingly refuse to enjoy life. “I’m just being realistic,� is one reason given for always looking at the negative. The justifications for misery are virtually limitless. Unhappy people people can stand
outside during a beautiful day worrying about when it will rain. It’s all about your perception. Do you see reasons for joy or excuses to be miserable? It is your choice whether you enjoy life or not. You’ve probably heard repeatedly some of the oft used maxims. “Do you see the glass half full or half empty?� “Turn lemons into lemonade.� “If it weren’t for the rain there would be no rainbow.� Each one of these sayings is designed to give you a positive perspective. Your life is what you make of it. You can chose to enjoy it to its fullest by appreciating all of your blessings or you can pick it apart looking for problems. Happy people are
adept at finding solutions for every problem while those who are constantly sad have an uncanny ability to find problems in every situation. Worry blocks your full enjoyment of life. It’s easy to formulate an endless list of things to worry about. You can worry about the past, present, and future. Worry is more insidious than just being a waste of time and energy. You actually attract the very things you worry about. Worry begets worry. People who constantly worry create a self-fulfilling prophesy that is then used to further justify their strategy. Those who enjoy life replace worry with action. They take action to influ-
ence those situations they have control over. They have learned to let go of those circumstances beyond their control. Waiting is another enjoyment squandering strategy. Waiting for circumstances to change or a situation to improve is a passive strategy that makes you a passenger in life rather than the driver. You can do so much to steer your life in your desired direction. Life is so much more enjoyable when you are proactive. You can’t enjoy life when you blame other people or circumstances for your current situation. Doing so creates a victim mentality where you feel powerless to affect positive changes. Additionally, your energy is spent
on complaining about problems instead of finding solutions. You are in control of your life. Regardless of your past experiences or current circumstances, you are free to chose your next step. In order to maximize your enjoyment, make the best of your situation, identify where you want to go, formulate a plan to get there, and then take the necessary action required to move forward. Although it is very easy to make endless excuses justifying failure or unhappiness, you won’t improve the way you feel. A better approach is focusing on reasons to succeed and enjoy life. Be thankful for all of your blessings. Avoid fixating on
what’s wrong by focusing instead on all that is right. Enjoyment is a state of mind. It’s a shame to go through life in a constant state of misery. Time goes by so very fast. There is no reason to squander it being miserable. Honestly assess your current level of enjoyment. If it’s not as high as you would like, start taking corrective action. Suffering need not be a way of life. You have the power and ability to boost your enjoyment. All it takes is the determination to do so.

Scenic byway helping revive parts of Madison County BY ADAM GANUCHEAU For The Associated Press
LIVINGSTON — Behind a counter at the newly opened Livingston Mercantile Store and The Gathering restaurant in Madison County is an enlarged, black-and-white photograph of four people. The doctored photograph was taken in the late 1890s and features current store owner Bowen Eason’s great-grandparents, his grandmother and his great-uncle — all of whom lived in Livingston. Around the time the photo was taken, Livingston was dying. The first county seat of Madison County, Livingston was a thriving community until the construction of the railroads in the 1850s bypassed the town. Generations later, with the help of a scenic byway preser-
vation project and community investors, Eason is able to revive the town where his family once thrived. The Gateway to History Scenic Byway stretches a wide span of Madison County from the Natchez Trace Parkway near the Ross Barnett Reservoir to Flora, including the cities of Madison and Canton. Popular destinations like the Petrified Forest, the Canton town square and the Chapel of the Cross line the byway, which includes parts of Mississippi Highways 22, 43 and 463. Project developers said the byway’s main purpose is to help preserve the history, but other benefits like boosts in county tourism and creation of new business and jobs have contributed to its success. Perhaps the most vis-
ible beneficiary of the byway is the town of Livingston, which is being developed by people like Eason. “(The byway) has already made Livingston more of a destination for people,� Eason said. “Things are developing quickly here, and I know we’ll continue to see the effects of what the project will do for us.� A group of Madison County residents had tried for 15-20 years to organize a way to preserve the historic stops along the byway, project developers said. Madison County native Michael Yerger, who was a key community supporter, said his grandmother took him around to many of the sites along what is now the byway when he was a
child, including his greatgrandparents’ home and his great-grandmother’s cemetery. After learning of the cemetery’s demolition by commercial developers, Yerger knew he wanted to become involved in historic preservation efforts. “After that ordeal, I realized that there were so many other places in the county that would be endangered by developers,� he said. “That’s when I knew I wanted to help do something that would preserve other people’s interests in Madison County.� Yerger teamed up with fellow Madison County residents Phyllis Doby and Rita McGuffie, and the group worked with state senators to draft a legislative bill. The bill was signed into law in 2013, and the positive re-
sults of the project have since been made obvious. In June, the Mississippi Heritage Trust awarded project developers with its 2014 Award for Excellence in Historic District Preservation. “We were all just tremendously impressed of the work that (Doby) and the others involved with that project did to help preserve a true piece of Mississippi history,� said Lolly Barnes, director of the Mississippi Heritage Trust. “The byway is truly something to be extremely proud of in our state.� The increased traffic has helped boost existing businesses and open the door for new ones, particularly in Livingston. Staying true to the historic nature of the byway’s existence, Eason and other developers are working to
re-establish the look and feel Livingston was once known for. Eason’s businesses showcase a rustic, oldtimey feel which he said was strategically planned. He opened the mercantile store Sept. 19, which sells locally produced groceries and other general store items and offers a full-service gas station. Eason’s businesses will soon be joined by others next door, including a traditional men’s barber shop, a cooking school, a cellar wine store and another restaurant called County Seat. Yerger, along with the other project coordinators, has secured multiple grants and other funds for special projects, like the creation of a nature walk trail, which is currently in the planning stages.

retail sales rose modestly in October, evidence that recent job gains and lower gas prices are lifting consumer spending as the holiday shopping season begins. The Commerce Department said Friday that retail sales rose 0.3 percent last month after falling by the same amount in September. Excluding gas stations, where falling prices lowered spending, sales rose a solid 0.5 percent. Employers have stepped up hiring, giving more Americans paychecks to spend and boosting consumer confidence. Stock prices have reached new highs, possibly encouraging more spending by wealthy households. Greater spending could spur more growth because consumer spending makes up about 70 percent of economic activity. Auto sales rose a solid 0.5 percent, after falling sharply in September. Americans also spent more at restaurants and at sporting goods and health care stores. Economists said the figures suggest consumer spending could rise by 2.5 percent to 3 percent in the fourth quarter. That would be only a moderate gain, but above the JulySeptember quarter’s 1.8 percent increase. The report shows a “boost to consumer spending power and sentiment from plummeting gasoline prices that we anticipate will continue into the key holiday shopping period,� said Ted Wieseman, an economist at Morgan Stanley. Sales at electronics stores plunged after a big gain the previous month, when the newest iPhone went on sale. The National Retail Federation, a trade group, has forecast that holiday sales — defined as retail sales in November and December — will rise 4.1 percent this year, compared with 2013. That would be the biggest gain in three years. While many categories showed sales gains, there were some signs consumers remain cautious. The category that includes major department stores and other general retailers reported flat sales last month. That echoes the largely disappointing sales reports this week from many retail chains, including Macy’s, J.C. Penney and Kohl’s. Wal-Mart, however, said that cheaper gas helped boost sales at its stores in the August-October quarter.

Underwear preference becomes a wedge issue in relationship DEAR ABBY: I’m a 50-yearold man in a relationship with a woman who is 42. She says I need to trade in my briefs for boxer shorts because they are outdated and “nobody wears those” anymore. She also told me only 9-year-old boys wear tighty whities Abigail and they are Van Buren a turn-off. I have always worn Dear Abby fly-front briefs. I don’t like boxers because I find them uncomfortable. What can I do to fix this problem? She will not look at it from my perspective. -- LIKES IT BRIEF IN FLORIDA DEAR LIKES IT BRIEF: Really? If you allow this woman to dictate what kind of underwear you wear now, she’ll be wearing the pants during your entire relationship if you stay with her. Tell her once and for all that if wearing boxers is so important to her, she should buy herself a pair. DEAR ABBY: I think my sister “Gladys” is a lesbian. And I don’t know how to approach her to ask.
I think she’s a lesbian because at 44 she has never been married. She hasn’t even had a boyfriend since 1998. She still lives with our parents and acts like she’s daddy’s little girl. She does everything with Dad, and Mom usually stays home. My sister is an RN and has only one friend from the hospital where she works. Of course, that friend is a woman. How can I ask my sister if she prefers women and why she is still alone at her age? -- BIG BROTHER IN CALIFORNIA DEAR BIG BROTHER: I would caution you against doing that. If you and your sister were close and she was gay, she would have said something to you by now. Not all women meet the right man, and not all women these days WANT to be married. It does not mean they are lesbians. Your sister is gainfully employed, so the fact that she lives with your parents does not mean she’s financially exploiting them. That you would call her “daddy’s little girl” is pejorative and implies that you’re jealous of the relationship she has with your father, which is why I think you should MYOB. DEAR ABBY: I was invited to an event and sent back an
RSVP. Two days before the event, I caught a cold. Because I had already accepted, I decided to go. When I arrived, I saw several people I knew. Each of them tried to hug me, but I told them I had a cold and thought it best not to get too close. All but one recoiled and turned away from me. I sat at a separate table so as not to infect anyone. Although I thought I had done the right thing, I felt like I was being treated like a leper. Should I have stayed home, mentioned my cold or just behaved like “business as usual”? -- “TYPHOID TINA” IN FLORIDA DEAR “TYPHOID TINA”: When you realized that you had come down with a cold and might be contagious, you should have immediately contacted your host, declined the invitation and explained that you didn’t want to risk spreading it. That’s the considerate way to handle it, and it would have been appreciated. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have leverage in a situation, so use it the way it’s supposed to be used: Apply a relatively minimal force to produce an outsized change. Don’t worry -- you’ve earned this. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can’t make a map to somewhere else without first understanding where you are right now. Do an assessment of your current way of life to identify the flaws and problems and also to note what’s going well. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know and love who you are. It’s not arrogance; it’s what’s necessary for you to give your best to the current situation, which, now more than ever, is requiring your best. CANCER (June 22-July 22). An English proverb suggests that a full cup must be carried steadily. Take your time and move carefully through the day, because your cup is more full than you realize. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your
loyalty to a friend will be tested. These are the kind of circumstances that weed out those of lesser character. Just know that you’re being scored in some way and that eyes are everywhere. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). French Nobel Prize winner Andre Gide had the best advice for this day. “Obtain from yourself all that makes complaining useless. No longer implore from others what you yourself can obtain.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You want your loved ones to be happy, and you’re willing to go to great lengths and make many personal sacrifices in order for this to happen. Consider, however, that giving them what they want isn’t the only way to happiness. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have learned that forgiveness is a gift to yourself, as well as to the one who wronged you. Today you’ll even go so far as to offer forgiveness in advance of the infraction just to get it out of the way.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don’t need to know everything that’s coming up in order to take action. Anyway, the landscape is changing, so even if you did know, it would only put you at a disadvantage. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Those who focus on creating external beauty will miss the point today. The most beautiful thing there is to observe is what is occurring naturally without human manipulation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re so caught up in your imagination today that the practical opportunities could go unrecognized. A Virgo or Taurus will point them out. For romantic luck, try what you’ve never tried before. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Success will depend on the expert timing and dissemination of information. The best moment to give people the whole story is when they are dying to know. Create the appetite first; then feed it.

Georgia crushes Auburn 34-7 BY PAUL NEWBERRY AP Sports Writer
ATHENS, Ga. — Nick Chubb shared the spotlight in Todd Gurley’s return, with both backs rushing for more than 100 yards in No. 16 Georgia’s 34-7 victory over ninth-ranked Auburn on Saturday night. Georgia (8-2, 6-2, No. 15 CFP) dominated the latest edition in Deep South’s oldest rivalry, handing the Tigers (7-3, 4-3, No. 9 CFP) their second straight loss and finishing off any hopes they had
of repeating as Southeastern Conference champions. Gurley returned to Georgia’s backfield after serving a four-game suspension for taking more than $3,000 for autographs. And, boy, what a splash he made the first time he touched the ball, returning a kickoff 105 yards to the end zone after Auburn scored on its opening possession for a 7-0 lead. The play didn’t count, however, wiped out by a holding penalty on Ryne Rankin. Everything else pretty
much went Georgia’s way. Chubb broke off a 9-yard touchdown run that gave the Bulldogs the lead for good midway through the second quarter. Gurley strolled in for a 3-yard touchdown that stretched the margin to 24-7 in the third quarter. Chubb finished off the stunningly easy victory with an 11yard touchdown run, capping a 98-yard drive after Amarlo Herrara picked off a fourthdown pass from Nick Marshall in Auburn’s last gasp. Chubb rushed for 144 yards
on 19 carries and went over 1,000 yards for the season. Gurley carried 29 times for 138 yards, though he hobbled off the field in the fourth quarter after taking a shot to his left knee. He watched the rest of the game from a training table, the knee iced down. The extent of his injury was not immediately known. Not to be overlooked was Georgia’s defense, which turned in a brilliant perforPlease see GEORGIA | 11A

Florida loss may hurt Muschamp BY MARK LONG AP Sports Writer
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — This may have been the final game in the Swamp for South Carolina’s Steve Spurrier and Florida’s Will Muschamp. After Muschamp went conservative again and settled for a field goal to start overtime, Dylan Thompson scored on a 4-yard keeper to give the Gamecocks a 23-20 victory over Florida on Saturday.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama’s lead had dwindled into dangerous territory against the nation’s top-ranked team. Suddenly, Blake Sims and the fourth-ranked Crimson Tide’s offense roared to life with a downfield march full of clutch plays. The result was a decisive fourth-quarter touchdown that finally provided some comfort in Saturday’s 25-20 victory over No. 1 Mississippi State. “It was one of the greatest
drives in Alabama history, probably,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said. And it came in one of the biggest games in Mississippi State annals. The Tide (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference, No. 5 CFP) reasserted itself as a national title contender with a dominant first half and some clutch play in the fourth quarter. Alabama had been stuck just outside of the top four teams in the College Football Playoff rankings but powered its way squarely into the mix.
Dak Prescott and the Bulldogs (9-1, 5-1, No. 1 CFP) kept fighting to keep their firstever reign going for a sixth week. They couldn’t conquer Alabama at raucous BryantDenny Stadium, though. “We should feel awful,” Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said. “You should have a sickness in your stomach. We should embrace this feeling to make sure that this feeling doesn’t happen again. We’ll feel sick tonight but then we’ll get over it. “Except for being unde-
feated, every other goal is still ahead of us.” Mississippi State scored early in the fourth to make it a six-point game but Sims and Yeldon answered with a start-and-stop march to the end zone. The Bulldogs produced a touchdown with 15 seconds left after a drive took 3 precious minutes off the clock. Alabama recovered the onside kick to secure its seventh straight win in the series Please see ALABAMA | 11A
Dobbs helps Tennessee trounce Kentucky BY STEVE MEGARGEE AP Sports Writer
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — One month after it seemingly couldn’t have found the end zone with a compass, Tennessee is scoring virtually at will. Consider it the Joshua Dobbs effect. Dobbs threw three touchdown passes and ran for a fourth score Saturday in his second start of the season as Tennessee trounced Kentucky 50-16 to continue its mastery of this annual series.
The sophomore quarterback even led Tennessee’s band in a postgame version of “Rocky Top.” “Winning and playing good football have really helped with confidence definitely (for) not only me but with the offense as a whole,” Dobbs said. “We’re definitely jelling right now. We’ve got to keep it going.” Jalen Hurd rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown as Tennessee (5-5, 2-4 SEC) beat Kentucky (5-6, 2-6) for
the 29th time in their last 30 meetings. Kentucky lost its fifth straight overall in a matchup between two teams chasing their first bowl bids since 2010. The Volunteers can become bowl eligible by beating Missouri at home next week or by winning at Vanderbilt on Nov. 29. Kentucky, which has next week off, must win Nov. 29 at Louisville to have a shot at a bowl bid. “It would mean the world,” Dobbs said. “I know that Ten-
nessee hasn’t been to a bowl game in a while, and that’s not something that Tennessee and the program is used to.” Tennessee’s offense continued a late-season surge that has coincided with Dobbs’ emergence. Tennessee had failed to score a touchdown in back-to-back SEC games against Florida and Ole Miss earlier this season. The Vols have scored 95 points in Dobbs’ two starts, their highPlease see TENNESSEE | 11A
Arkansas ends SEC streak with win over LSU BY KURT VOIGT AP Sports Writer
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas finally earned its first Southeastern Conference win for second-year coach Bret Bielema. Brandon Allen threw for 169 yards and Arkansas snapped a 17-game Southeastern Conference losing streak with a 17-0 win over LSU on Saturday night.
The conference win is the first for the Razorbacks (5-5, 1-5 SEC) since 2012, and it’s Bielema’s first SEC win after 13 straight losses. Arkansas’ shutout is the school’s first since a 20-0 win over Utah State in 2006, and it’s the first in an SEC game since 2002 against South Carolina. Jonathan Williams and Alex Collins ran for touch-
downs for the Razorbacks, who held the Tigers (7-4, 3-4, No. 17 CFP) to 36 yards rushing on 32 attempts. The loss is the second straight for LSU. It’s only the second time it has lost backto-back games under coach Les Miles. The Tigers’ last shutout loss was to Alabama in the national championship game three seasons ago, and they
struggled mightily on offense against an Arkansas team that had become accustomed to heartbreak in several losses this season. Anthony Jennings, a week after completing 8 of 26 passes for 76 yards in an overtime loss to Alabama, struggled once again on Saturday — finishing 12 of 22 passing for Please see ARKANSAS | 11A

between two programs separated by some 85 miles, and considerable gaps in tradition. The Bulldogs fell one win shy of the programrecord 13-game winning streak but probably remain in the championship hunt. They were the only unbeaten team in the brutal SEC coming into the game, and didn’t go down quietly after trailing 19-3 at halftime. Down 25-13, Prescott had the Bulldogs driving in the final six minutes, even converting on fourth and 7. Then Landon Collins recorded Alabama’s third interception of the Heisman candidate with 5:01 left. Sims completed 19 of 31 passes for 211 yards and a touchdown, but made his biggest plays on Alabama’s final touchdown drive.
Auto racing He converted two third-and-long plays with runs a la Prescott, and delivered on a third with an 8-yard pass to Yeldon. “He kept that drive alive a few times, reaching that third-down marker,” Alabama center Ryan Kelly said of Sims. Then Yeldon, whose status was unclear all week with an ankle injury, kept the Tide moving with three straight runs, ultimately stepping out of a defender’s grasp to cap it with a 6-yard touchdown. “Probably wasn’t as explosive as normal, but the guy’s a true warrior,” Saban said. “There was no way you were going to keep him out of the game. He wanted to play.” Saban said Alabama’s defense had been tiring by the end of the third quarter, so that sixminute drive game that group some respite.

est total in back-to-back SEC games since 2003. The Vols had to change quarterbacks last month after Justin Worley tore the labrum in his throwing shoulder, knocking him out for the remainder of the season. After Nathan Peterman played the first two series of a 34-20 loss to Alabama on Oct. 25, Dobbs took over and hasn’t looked back. Dobbs rallied Tennessee to a 45-42 overtime victory at South Carolina two weeks ago while setting a singlegame school rushing record for a quarterback and becoming the first Vol ever to throw for 300 yards and run for 100 yards in the same game. He showed Saturday that performance against South Carolina
was no fluke. On Tennessee’s opening possession, Dobbs flipped a short pass that Von Pearson turned into a 21-yard touchdown. Dobbs connected with Pearson again for a 16yard touchdown pass in the second quarter. On the first play from scrimmage in the third quarter, Dobbs threw a career-long 52-yard touchdown completion to Jason Croom. After Kentucky took an early 3-0 lead, Tennessee scored the game’s next 30 points. “This football team’s different,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. “Their whole mindset’s different. I always gauge it by our players (are) show up early for practice, and they’re always late to leave. ... We’re building something special here.”

ed a four-game losing streak in Southeastern Conference play and knocked Florida (5-4, 4-4) out of contention in the league’s muddled Eastern Division. The loss also could mean the end for Muschamp, who has dropped 13 of his last 22 games. The fourthyear coach has been on the hot seat all season, and a three-game losing streak at home could be the final blow in what’s been a mediocre tenure. Fans have been chanting “Fire Muschamp!” in the stadium. “I’m getting a little old when you start feeling sorry for the other coach,” said the 69-yearold Spurrier, who won the 1996 Heisman Trophy as Florida’s quarterback and coached the Gators to a national title 30 years later. “I do feel for coach Muschamp. He’s a good guy, and it appeared they had that game in pretty good shape, but they didn’t make a first down and we blocked the punt and we win the game somehow.” The “Head Ball Coach”
said last week he plans to return for an 11th season at South Carolina, but there are no guarantees he will be around when the Gamecocks return to Gainesville in 2016. Muschamp might not make it to next week. Athletic director Jeremy Foley said last month that he would evaluate the season “as it plays out.” Aside from bowl eligibility and maybe pride, the Gators have nothing left to play for in mid-November for the second straight season. “I’m going to coach this football team, and we’re going to move on and get ready for the next one,” Muschamp said. “That’s what I’ll do and that’s what our staff will do and the team will do. I’ll let you guys speculate.” Florida’s biggest problem Saturday was obvious: special teams. The Gamecocks blocked a 32-yard field goal attempt that would have given the Gators a 10-point lead with a little more than 3 minutes to play. South Carolina also blocked a punt with 39 seconds left, setting up the game-tying touchdown.

Hansbrough, Tigers top Aggies BY KRISTIE RIEKEN AP Sports Writer
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Russell Hansbrough ran for a career-high 199 yards and two touchdowns to help Missouri to a 34-27 win over Texas A&M on Saturday night. Missouri (8-2, 5-1 SEC) scored 28 points in the third quarter to erase a seven-point halftime deficit and take a 34-20 lead. The Aggies got within a touchdown early in the fourth quarter and had a chance to tie it with less than three minutes remaining, but lost a yard on fourth down from the Missouri 1. The Tigers then ran out the clock to secure their
fourth straight win and remain in first place in the SEC East. Hansbrough ran for touchdowns of 49 and 45 yards in his fifth career 100-yard game in front of a crowd of more than 100,000 which included former President George H.W. Bush and his wife Barbara. Kyle Allen threw for 237 yards with three touchdowns and an interception for Texas A&M (7-4, 3-4). He tossed a 4-yard pass over the head of safety Duron Singleton to Malcome Kennedy for a touchdown to cut Missouri’s lead to 34-27 early in the fourth quarter.
Andrew Baggett’s 49yard field-goal attempt bounced off the right upright, giving the Aggies the ball back with 5 ½ minutes remaining, but they came away empty after the fourth-down stop. Missouri’s Shane Ray had a sack to give him 13 this season, extending his school record. Maty Mauk threw for 252 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The Tigers tied it at 1313 when Mauk found Darius White in the end zone for a 16-yard touchdown reception early in the third quarter. A&M responded quickly with Allen finding Josh Reynolds for a 56-yard
touchdown catch three plays later to put the Aggies back up 20-13. The score gave Reynolds 12 touchdown receptions this season to tie a school record. He finished with five receptions for 125 yards. Hansbrough knotted the score once again when he burst up the middle 49 yards for a touchdown less than two minutes later. Missouri forced a punt and Hansbrough did it again on the next drive, this time evading three tacklers on his way to a 45-yard touchdown run to make it 27-20. A 16-yard touchdown run by freshman Ish Witter pushed the lead to 34-20 with about a minute left in the quarter.
up 17-0. The relief turned to celebration when the game ended, with fans storming — and nearly covering all of — the field. Arkansas’ last SEC win was a 49-7 blowout over Kentucky on Oct. 13, 2012. That came the season following the Bobby Petrino scandal and firing, with interim coach
John L. Smith leading the way. Bielema had lost his first 13 SEC games since leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas following the 2012 season, several in gut-wrenching fashion this season. Led by a defense that harassed Jennings throughout, sacking the LSU quarterback four
times, the Razorbacks made sure not to suffer the same disappointment on Saturday. Allen finished 16 of 27 passing, including several key third-down completions, and Williams gave Arkansas a 10-0 halftime lead with his 1-yard touchdown dive midway through the second quarter.
The Bulldogs finished off their conference schedule and headed to the locker room to await the result of Missouri’s game at Texas A&M. An Aggies win would give Georgia the SEC East title. Malcolm Mitchell hauled in a 7-yard pass for Georgia’s opening touchdown, after Auburn
marched down the field with ease the first time it had the ball. After converting three straight times on third down, the Tigers went ahead on Cameron Artis Payne’s 26-yard scoring run. That was about it for the Tigers, who seemed to be feeling the effects of an upset loss to Texas A&M
the previous week. Auburn was averaging more than 38 points a game and had not scored less than 20 since Malzahn took over. Marshall completed 11 of 23 passes for 112 yards, and rushed for only 41 yards. The Tigers were held to 292 yards and turned it over three times.
ARKANSAS CONTINUED FROM 10A
87 yards. The Tigers were outgained 264-123 by the Razorbacks. While LSU fell to 25-2 under Miles in games following a loss, Razorback Stadium erupted in cheers of relief when Collins scored on a 5-yard run early in the fourth quarter to put Arkansas

Those thinking about tying the knot in the months to come may be discouraged by how expensive weddings can be. But with a little ingenuity and a hands-on approach, couples can have a wedding that is inexpensive and memorable at the same time. According to CostofWedding.com, on average, U.S. couples spend $26,542 for their weddings. With such a high price tag, some couples may wonder if they can afford their dream wedding or if there are ways to cut costs. Having a backyard, DIY wedding can be the answer. Although some may envision a backyard wedding with picnic benches and Dad at the grill, it can be a much classier affair than that. Smart couples are realizing that the money they would normally spend on a big wedding at an outside venue can be put to better use, either through buying a new home or fixing up one they may already own.
Getting started
Feed on these ideas for wedding favor Do you have a shelf or cabinet that’s filled to the brim with wedding favors such as engraved ice cream scoopers, cake servers, cheese spreaders or tea light candle holders? If you do, you’re not alone. As couples pore over guest favor options, many select trinkets or knickknacks that, while thoughtful, end up collecting dust in someone’s home. Edible gifts also can be thoughtful -- and flavorful! Guests may look forward to an edible favor because it’s a memento of the special occasion and it won’t become a permanent fixture in their homes. There are many edible favors from which to choose. Chocolate — Ideas for
chocolate favors include individually packaged truffles, gourmet brownie bites, candy-covered chocolates with an inscription, chocolate covered apples, chocolate coins, and other similar creations. Chocolate molded designs (much like those chocolate Easter bunnies) are another idea. Cookies — Butter cookies are a favorite because they are sturdy enough to cut into different shapes. Professionally iced, these cookies can be a masterpiece to behold. Other edibles — From cupcakes to maple syrup to personalized bottles of barbecue sauce, couples have so many options for guest favors at their disposal.
A DIY wedding is one that will take much more work than simply hiring vendors and leaving the details to them. But the money saved with sweat equity can be substantial. A well-planned wedding is the best start. Grab a notebook and start making lists of all the things you will need: • location • tables and chairs • food • silverware and glassware • invitations • photography • music • officiant • music • decor • cake or dessert • lighting • attire • flowers
Work in advance Many items necessary for a wedding can be bought in advance.
Some couples find that purchasing low-cost items at discount stores turns out to be less expensive than renting. For example, inexpensive glasses and silverware can be bought at dollar stores or chains like Ikea. Later on these items can be kept, sold or even donated to shelters. An informal wedding may mean couples can get simple attire. Buying off the rack may mean a smaller price tag for gowns. Gentleman may be able to fare with sportcoats and slacks. Purchase wardrobe essentials several months in advance to be sure there will be time for alterations, if necessary.
Readying the venue Because couples will be doing the work themselves, it’s best to start several days in advance of the wedding (weather permitting). Be sure the grounds are well groomed and landscaped. Ensure there are no tripping hazards and that there is a sturdy surface for placing tables or creating a dance floor. Set up the tables and chairs to finalize placement the day before. Figure out where the ceremony will take place. A small arbor can mark the area and make a nice photo backdrop. Dress the tables with linens and settings the morning of the wedding.
Other tips and tricks • Fruit is less expensive than flowers for centerpieces. • Include postcard response cards in wedding invites. The postage is less, and you don’t have to spend money on an extra envelope. • Consider favors that also double as table centerpieces. • Bouquets can easily be made with storebought flowers, some floral tape and decorative ribbon.

Sherman’s March at 150: 5 questions, answers BY CHRISTOPHER SULLIVAN Associated Press
A turning point in the Civil War came 150 years ago this week, when Union Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman left the smoking ruins of Atlanta and launched his scorching March to the Sea. Here are five questions and answers about the commander whose name, even today, evokes admiration or hatred — and about his march, which hastened the war’s end:
Why march to the sea? The Civil War was in its third year in 1864, and casualties continued to mount. Sherman’s capture of Atlanta in September helped President Abraham Lincoln win a second term on Nov. 8, ensuring that his fight to preserve the Union would continue. At the same time, the Confederacy showed no sign of giving up.
With the top Union general, Ulysses S. Grant, confronting Robert E. Lee in Virginia, Sherman proposed an arcing campaign, first southward across Georgia to Savannah, then through the Carolinas toward Virginia to aid Grant. His army would leave a trail of destruction. This plan, Sherman reasoned, would conquer land but also send the enemy a message. “If we can march a wellappointed army right through his territory, it is a demonstration to the world, foreign and domestic, that we have a power that (Confederate President Jefferson) Davis cannot resist,” Sherman wrote to Grant. “I can make this march and make Georgia howl.” Lincoln worried a misstep “might be fatal to his army.” Davis promised as much, saying Sherman, alone in the heart of enemy territory, would be crushed.

Crossword
But Grant trusted Sherman, who, after ordering men into many deadly assaults during the war, made clear that he’d rather accomplish conquest in a different way. “Shock and awe. That’s really what Sherman was talking about,” historian John Marszalek, author of “Sherman: A Soldier’s Passion for Order,” said in an interview.
Who was William Tecumseh Sherman? Going back to “Cump” Sherman’s boyhood, when his father died virtually penniless and his mother sent him to be raised by another family, Marszalek said the warrior known for chaos was really guided by a lifelong quest for order. Central to this notion was restoration of Union and the rule of law. Sherman, a West Point graduate, was superintendent of a military school in Louisiana when South
Carolina seceded in 1861, setting the war in motion. He wept out loud when he heard the news, then took a commission in the U.S. Army, knowing he’d fight cadets he’d trained. Ironically, Sherman always considered himself friendly to the South. At the same time, he came to believe the Southern population’s continuing support for war had to be broken, along with the Confederate army. Sherman’s veteran troops had come to love his quirky, unkempt style, his intelligence that some felt verged on craziness, and his fighting spirit. “I’d follow Uncle Billy to hell,” one soldier said. The March to the Sea took barely a month. Sherman telegraphed Lincoln on Dec. 22: “I beg to present to you as a Christmas-gift the City of Savannah.”
Did Sherman destroy everything in his path? No. But as part of a “war on the Confederate mind,” his march left many feeling that way — to this day. Without supply lines, his 62,000-member army needed to live off the land. “Forage liberally,” he famously ordered — and many troops took that as license to pillage. One letter home describes the spoils that foragers returned to camp with one night: “Pumpkins, chickens, cabbages” for the evening meal, but also “a looking-glass, an Italian harp ..., a peacock,
a rocking chair.” Much destruction was formally ordered. Whatever could benefit the enemy — cotton gins, barns, factories, Confederate leaders’ homes — could be set ablaze. Teams assigned to wreck rail lines made bonfires of torn-up ties, heated rails red hot, then twisted them around trees: “Sherman’s neckties.” Sherman torched some towns that harbored snipers or guerrillas. The few battles along the march were quickly won by the unstoppable Union force. Rumors of this onrushing whirlwind spread fearfully among those in Sherman’s path. And who knew what that path was? Even Lincoln would say: “We know what hole he went in, but we don’t know what hole he’ll come out of.” And the deception echoes today. Historian Marszalek said he’s often approached after talks. “He burned my greatgrandfather’s barn,” a listener will say. “Where was that?” Marszalek will ask — and it will be nowhere near Sherman’s path. “He got into people’s psyche. That’s exactly what he wanted to do. And it’s still very much there,” Marszalek said. Along Sherman’s route today, a visitor will hear about total ruin — but then see signs beckoning tourists to an “antebellum trail” of unburned plantation houses. Sherman claimed to have inflicted $100 million worth of physical
damage, though historians call this figure a guess. The psychic damage was incalculable.
How is Sherman’s March remembered today? Sherman remains a rare Civil War figure still readily remembered. Many Southerners quote family stories about “the devil incarnate.” Confederate-interest websites brand him “a war criminal” and worse. But the passage of time has allowed a more nuanced view. At a re-enactment in Atlanta, David French, portraying one of Sherman’s troops, said, “He took the chivalry out of war, and frankly it’s why he won. He was really one of the first modern generals.” Many military historians agree, saying he influenced a broadened view of what’s acceptable war-making. Others say Sherman’s harsh tactics were meant to bring the Civil War to an end. Historian Robert O’Connell, author of “Fierce Patriot,” a 2014 biography of Sherman, said in an interview he senses the march is now “perceived as a cruel but necessary thing.”
Why Tecumseh? Naming his son after the American Indian leader made perfect sense to Sherman’s father. Unwittingly prophetic, he explained, “Tecumseh was a great warrior.”
Movie review: ‘Dumb and Dumber To’ lives up to its title BY LINDSEY BAHR AP Film Writer
LOS ANGELES — Comedy is all about timing. The dimwitted Lloyd (Jim Carrey) reminds the audience of that simple fact minutes into “Dumb and Dumber To” and the sentiment echoes throughout the disappointing return. Twenty years have passed since audiences first met and improbably fell for Lloyd and Harry (Jeff Daniels), and the boys are up to their same old stunts, which is the fundamental problem: They’ve stayed the same. We’ve changed. “Dumb and Dumber” was received favorably enough by critics when it was released in late 1994 — back when Jim Carrey seemed like he had the potential to be the next Jerry Lewis. But no one could have foreseen the effect this ridiculous tale of a couple of idiots traveling cross country to return a briefcase would have on the culture in the coming decades. Lloyd and Harry’s antics and one-off lines penetrated our collective imaginations and managed to do that thing that all comedies dream of — get better, or at least more beloved, with time. The ill-conceived sequel, however, is so uninspired that it could retroactively tarnish our affection for
the original. This next chapter technically picks up where we left off, at least in terms of Lloyd and Harry’s relationship. Lloyd has been pretending to be comatose for 20 years, all for the sake of a gotcha moment, which Harry fully enjoys. Anyway, Harry soon reveals that he’s in dire need of a new kidney. The story is set in motion when he discovers he might be the father of a daughter, Penny (Rachel Melvin), and they head off to find her. Plot is almost beside the point, but it does follow the beats of the first to a tee. There are road trips set to jaunty songs, straight men to annoy and a rich woman with nefarious plans that they’ll inevitably screw up. Lloyd even has a new pretty young thing to dream about in Penny. But, what may have been subversive and irreverent in 1994, now just seems vulgar, hateful and tone-deaf — from their unabashedly misogynistic treatment of women (including Kathleen Turner as Penny’s mom) to their insidious racism. In the harsh light of 2014, their juvenile buffoonery looks embarrassing and lazy. It’s hard to imagine a new generation latching on to this brand of humor. That’s not to say that the movie is entirely
without merit, or laughs. Co-directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly adore their characters and are trying to give fans what they want: the nostalgic joy of an unfussy reunion, devoid of modern snark or meta commentary. Stars Carrey and Daniels are clearly giving it their all, too, as energetic and vital as ever with their strikingly aged visages. Carrey’s, in particular, has reached a peak of elastic malleability, giving him a grotesquely broad palette to play with. Also, Rob Riggle’s entry mid-movie adds a muchneeded dynamism to the film by finally giving the guys a suitable comedian to play against. He’s responsible for most of the very few laughs and a visual gag so brilliant that some might even be compelled to see it again. But ultimately, it’s too little, too late. Some things are just better left in the past. It’s a shame “Dumb and Dumber” wasn’t one of them. “Dumb and Dumber To,” a Universal Pictures release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “crude and sexual humor, partial nudity, language and some drug references.” Running time: 110 minutes. One and a half stars out of four.
Mason: Pink Floyd may unite for right benefit BY JOHN CARUCCI Associated Press
NEW YORK — It’s no secret that Pink Floyd will not tour to support their latest — and final album — “The Endless River.” But drummer Nick Mason doesn’t rule out a special performance with surviving members, including former bandmate Roger Waters. “I would do something for a real cause of charity,” Mason said in
an interview last week, suggesting one scenario could be “something similar to Live 8.” For that 2005 concert, Mason, Waters, David Gilmour and Richard Wright reunited for a global audience performing a four-song set. Waters left the band in 1986 and Wright died in 2008. Short of another global benefit, fans will have to settle for the record. “The Endless River,”
released Monday, marks the band’s first album since 1994’s “The Division Bell,” and derives its name from the last lyrics spoken at the end of the final track, “High Hopes.” Most of the new album was recorded during those sessions. Years later, Mason and Gilmour revisited more than 20 hours of material, taking on the task of “distilling it into an album worthy of a release.”
