Fiber coming to N. Corinth BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
It’s a good week to go green. One of the colors of the Christmas season is bringing a special gift to Corinth’s north “fiberhood” in the form of super-fast Internet download
Basket fund tops $13,400 The spirit of giving this Christmas season is alive and well in the Alcorn County area. Donations continue to arrive for the 19th Annual Corinth Rotary Club / Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund. A $25,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 6. Baskets were given away based upon faith the goal will be reached. So far, $13,462 has been raised, meaning $11,538 still needs to be raised to make the goal. Recent donations include $200 from Danny Boatman in memory of Cliff and Margaret Boatman; $100 from Willie Walker in memory of William and Lucille Walker; $350 from employees at Gingers in memory of Kathryn Huggins; $25 from Mr. and Mrs. James L.

Keeping a holiday promise Holiday

filling his grandmother’s wish. Margaret Williams, not long before she passed away, told her grandson she hoped whoever moved into her house would continue hanging the wreath. “At the time, I think she felt I was the most likely of the grandkids to live in Corinth, so she asked me if I ended up living in the house would I continue to do the wreath,” Williams added. “I promised her I would.” He’s been at it since moving into the home in 1999, but the process of building the wreath isn’t easy. “I normally look for limbs
Lonely does not fit into any category. A person who is lonely can come from any walk of life. It is especially true at Christmas. “Crossroads Christmas” was created three years ago as a way to keep anyone in the Crossroads area from being lonely on Christmas Day. There will be a special free Christmas Day meal from 10:30 a.m.-3 p.m. at the Living Free building off U.S. Hwy. 72 behind Magnolia Funeral Home. It is open to everyone. If you do not have a family lunch to attend or just want to be with others, then “Crossroads Christmas” is the perfect opportunity for you to share a free meal with other people. There is one man in Corinth who uses the meal as his personal family holiday gathering and is appreciative of the opportunity. Don Vinson moved to Corinth 10 years ago and has no family to share a traditional meal with on Christmas Day. ”This is my Christmas dinner and I love it,” said Vinson. “I’m there all day and enjoy every bit of it from the meal to the fellowship in the afternoon.” Vinson said he does not have anywhere else to go on Christmas Day and the meal and gathering gives him something to look forward to every year. “I’ve made friends with people I did not know at the first two years of Crossroads Christmas,” he said. “I can’t tell you how much it means to me to be able to be with people on Christmas Day. It is a lonely feeling when you spend the day by yourself.” Marea Wilson came up with

The handmade Christmas wreath, constructed of magnolia leaves, is hung the first weekend of December each year around the front door of the Williams home on Fillmore Street in downtown Corinth.
Live wreath continues family tradition BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Carrying on an estimated 80-year Christmas tradition, Robert Williams doesn’t just hang a regular wreath on the front door of his Fillmore Street home. Each year on the first weekend in December, Williams builds what is most likely Alcorn County’s largest handmade holiday decoration. Measuring 14 feet tall and taking more than 8 hours to complete, the wreath isn’t made out of traditional Christmas greenery. “A lot of people are surprised when they learn I have to make it out of Magnolia leaves every year,” said Williams, who lives in the his-
toric home with his wife Sallie Kate and their three young children. “Many people have asked where I store it or what the frame is made of. They don’t realize I just nail leaves to the house.” Williams looks to a couple of different sources for all those magnolia leaves. “The trees in our yard are so old and diseased, I don’t use those leaves and limbs anymore,” he said. “Luckily I have a couple of nice people, Dow Green and Keith Carlton, that allow me to use their trees for my magnolia supply. They’re great about letting me come cut clusters off their trees each year.” The wreath isn’t a joke to Williams – it’s all about ful-

that have several clusters of leaves, which I then cut and form into the wreath,” he said. “I use one inch, thin nails, which means there’s a lot of holes in the front of my house ...” The real estate agent said he has learned how to pick the right limbs over the years to make it easier to build and to do as little damage as possible to the trees. “I have to do a lot of overlapping and it’s easier when the branches are full,” Williams added. “One year, I thought about doing a frame, but I like eyeing it just the same. It’s always been done that way.” Since the mid 1930s, only three people have been involved in the wreath making tradition. “Lloyd Jackson worked for my grandparents and he actually was the first person to hang the wreath,” Williams said. “He did it until about 1975 when he taught John Eddings the tradition shortly before he died. I learned all I know from John. He could barely get around the last year he constructed it, but would not let me help -- I could only watch.” Williams recently dug up a photo dated Christmas 1940. It shows Williams’ great-grandmother, Minnie Schumpert, standing in front the home. The wreath, not a circular one, can be seen draping over the door with a large bow and Christmas bells dangling from the top. “It has gone through

700 homes in the north fiberhood are pre-registered for the service. A coordinated campaign of calling on residents during the last few weeks bumped the number up to the target. “I’m so proud and humbled by the dozens of volunteers who came together to make this a reality for our town,” said Mayor Tommy Irwin. Corinth joins Quitman, Ridgeland and Starkville, who qualified earlier this year and saw the service activated last month. While the recent efforts focused on the northern tier, the city also has central and south sections that could still qualify. “We’ve still got a lot of work to do in qualifying other areas, but I’m excited that we have the opportunity to bring this advanced technology to the residents of our city,” Irwin said. The fiber service will provide speed 100 times faster than average broadband service. Gigabit per second speeds are available in only a handful of U.S. cities. C Spire Senior Vice President of Consumer Markets Suzy Hays said the next-generation technology can help cities like Corinth become hubs for future investment and growth. “Fiber to the Home can be a transformative technology for communities, serving as a platform for innovation and a host of new Internet applications and experiences yet to be imagined,” Hays said. “We’re excited to partner with Corinth and other Mississippi cities to be a
town Corinth through New Year’s Eve. “It’s bad luck to still have Christmas decorations up on New Year’s Day,” he said. “The wreath comes down a lot quicker than it goes up.” Williams does hope to one day pass the long standing family tradition down to his children. “I plan on doing it until I can’t do it any longer,” said Williams. “I would love for one of my kids or future grandkids to live here one day and enjoy doing it and continue the tradition of our family.” “It’s just not a Williams’ Christmas without the wreath,” he said.

the idea in 2012 to put together a free meal for Christmas Day to give everyone in the Crossroads area a place to go on the holiday. “I just could not stand the thought of anyone being alone on Christmas Day,” said Wilson. “We recruited several volunteers to help and the response has just been great the past two years.” Tommy Wilson, founder of Living Free, said the first two years the meal has seemed like one big family coming together to eat and share with each other. “There are all types of folks at the meal,” he said. “It does not matter where you live or what you have
in life, because everyone is welcome to eat with us.” The traditional holiday feast will include turkey, ham, dressing and plenty of homemade desserts. While you are eating the lunch, you can watch classic Christmas movies. The movies will be playing all afternoon. “If you want to bring your entire family to the meal, that will be OK,” said Marea. “I’m excited about seeing everyone again this year and making some new friends.” (If you would like to volunteer to help or donate food to “Crossroads Christmas,” call Marea at 662-643-7298 or by e-mail at livingfreeministries@hotmail.com.)

Is the American dream really dead? BY JERRY NEWCOMBE Columnist
Last month, a professor of economics at the University of California, Davis made some headlines by basically asserting that there is no American dream. It’s a myth. He crunched the numbers, supposedly disproving it. Hmm. My dad used to always say, “Did you ever hear about the statistician who drowned in a river, the average depth of which was 6 inches?” KOVR-TV interviewed professor Gregory Clark about his findings. He declared: “America has no higher rate of social mobility than medieval England or pre-industrial Sweden. ... That’s the most difficult part about talking about social mobility is because it is shattering people’s dreams.” Yet America has many “rags to riches” stories. The rest of this article is dedicated to one such case. Leo Raymond was born in a Faribault, Minnesota, farmhouse Sept. 24, 1921. That town is about an hour south of the Twin Cities. He was one of six children -- three boys, three girls. The farmhouse didn’t have electricity when he was growing up, nor did it have indoor plumbing. Leo had to walk to his one-room schoolhouse, which was a mile away. One of his sons used to quip, “He had to walk uphill, both ways.” But truly, he had to walk to and from school every day, even when it was really cold. One February, the temperature never got above minus 20. Even though that one-room schoolhouse from first to eighth grade was so rudimentary and simple, he got a first-rate education compared with any modern education. His incredible abilities in math and grammar were made secure in that small room. He was so sharp as a youngster that he skipped second grade, and his mother, a retired schoolteacher, decided to save what paltry money she could to help create a college fund for little Leo. He became the first in his family to go off to college. He attended the University of Minnesota. This was in 1938, when he was 16. He graduated with a degree in economics in 1942. He served in the Navy aboard a transport ship in the Pacific, the USS Ulysses S. Grant. After his service in the Navy, he earned an MBA at the University of Michigan in 1947. Meanwhile, during World War II, he met his wife-to-be, Ann Lombard. She was the daughter of a prominent military surgeon who was transferred a lot during his career. They got married May 1, 1948, at St. Augustine Cathedral in Pittsburgh. She was born in New Orleans, and her marrying a Yankee was an interesting combination. It was a wonderful marriage (no civil war there). They settled in the Chicago area, eventually moving to and staying in Winnetka, Illinois. They had eight children – six boys, two girls. Leo became a certified public accountant and worked for Arthur Andersen & Co. He went on to work for Field Enterprises, beginning in 1952. Later, he became the vice president and general manager of the Chicago SunTimes and Chicago Daily News. He worked for three Marshall Fields – III, IV and V. This was an amazing achievement – going from a poor farm without an indoor bathroom to becoming an executive for years at two major papers in one of America’s biggest cities. Tragedy struck Leo in 1977 at the age of 55, in the form of bleeding in the brain. But prayers, organized by his wife, went up all over for him. She oversaw round-the-clock prayer vigils for his recovery, which eventually came. He was never able to drive again, but overall he became his pleasant self again. By God’s grace, his family received the gift of 37 years with him after that. In 1979, he transitioned from his executive position to teaching accounting at DePaul University. He was tough but well-respected. If you deserved an F, he gave you an F, regardless of your self-esteem. If you deserved an A, you got that, too. He retired in 1991. One time, Leo and a son were in a famous restaurant in New York City. While waiting for a table, he sat next to a man with a strange handlebar mustache at the bar. It was Salvador Dali. Leo had no idea who he was. He said to the artist, “Well, you must have quite a lot of self-esteem to sport a mustache like that. How do you do? I’m Leo.” Dali introduced himself, and Leo asked him what he did for a living. Hearing the answer, he told Dali, “A painter? Well, we just settled on a new contract with the painters union, and those guys were tough negotiators.” Dali replied, “Not that kind of painter. I paint on the canvas.” Leo looked surprised and said, “There’s no money in that. How can you afford to eat in a place like Sardi’s?” That’s when Dali roared and insisted on paying for their drinks. The end of Leo’s earthly time came Dec. 10, 2014, at age 93 at an assisted-care facility in the Chicago area. Not bad for a poor Minnesota farm boy. Long live the American dream. P.S. I know this is all true because Leo Raymond’s last name was Newcombe. He was my dad. (Jerry Newcombe is co-host/senior TV producer of “Kennedy Classics” and has written/ co-written 25 books.

Christmas in a sun-filled place PASS CHRISTIAN — This is Christmas week. And as Irving Berlin wrote: The orange and the palm trees sway. Cat Island looks so close across the sparkling Mississippi Sound, I could touch it with a feather duster. Live oaks remain green and disguise the season. My dear, most-forgiving friend Betty is flying in from cold Virginia to spend Christmas with us on the warm Mississippi Coast. For 40 years she’s listened to my daffiest dreams and encouraged them. Oysters are on the half shell. Nog is on ice. All’s right with the world. I feel grateful this Christmas, simply grateful. I have made it to a rather sensible age, old enough in the new year to receive Social Security, or what my funny friend Jett Williams calls “mailbox money.” But I have made it this far without getting too sensible, without losing that part of my soul that remains un-
repentantly romantic, wears sheer dresses on cool nights, cheers for the underRheta dog and Johnson burns candles in the Columnist window. And that romantic, Peter Pan part of me still wants to be near the sea. I have been trying for years to spend more time on this, the most underrated of coastlines. People here, for the most part, get along. They are a diverse lot and have no desire to pass easy judgment. Creativity drips from the skies like Spanish moss from the trees. All throughout this town are imperfect artists, and I mean that in a good way. There are writers with unpublished books, poets struggling with meter, potters with flawed pots. There are a few famous citizens – one novelist won the Na-
tional Book Award – but most of us are still hungry creators, one sentence, one stroke, shy of celebrity. There are people here, too, who still make their living from the land and the sea, seine the ocean’s bottom at night while we sleep, or tong for oysters at the nearby reef. Computers don’t figure into it. Honest labor is etched in their faces, and they have no trouble with job description. They know what they do, what they have always done. I am grateful to be part of this scene this Christmas, a barnacle on the bottom of the Good Ship Mississippi, a wanderer who has found a friendly port. The red and green harbor lights seem designed for the season, and I pretend they burn for me. As any sailor knows, it’s Red Right Returning. I am grateful for you if you are reading this. It seems to me that though fewer and fewer people believe they need newspapers. But the ones who do are a special,
even obstinate breed. They savor words written in ink on pages that turn. I often hear from faithful readers, which keeps me typing. They send words of cheer when I need them. They send cards and letters and seasonal wishes. They share their stories. And so we have a bond, one I think about whenever I travel or write or try to convey a scene I find moving. I owe my readers my livelihood, my inspiration, even my sanity. I owe you a deep and heartfelt thanks, readers who have followed my byline for four decades. And as Melanie Hamilton said to Belle Watling, I am proud to be in your debt. I wish you the merriest of Christmases, a new year full of impractical and fun choices, a life with love.

‘Unbroken’ is incomplete story NEW YORK — I wanted to like the movie because I love the book. Laura Hillenbrand’s bestseller, “Unbroken,” is a classic. While I had heard reports that the turning point in the book never made it to film, I attended a pre-release screening with an open mind. Audiences are told “Unbroken” is a “true story.” It is true, as far as it goes, but the story is incomplete. There have been many World War II stories told in film depicting triumphs of personal courage and survival. The story of Louis Zamperini is one such story, but with an added dimension. Zamperini, who died earlier this year at age 97, came home an angry man. He became addicted to alcohol and cigarettes and verbally abused his young wife as he wrestled with his inner demons. The skeleton of his story is in the film -the plane crash at sea while on a rescue mission; the 47 days floating on a raft before being picked up by a Japanese ship and thrown into a prison camp; the relentless
torture and eventual liberation at the end of the war. After returning to Cal Los AngeThomas les we see Zamperini Columnist hugging his brother and parents, but the story ends there. Director Angelina Jolie attempts to put some flesh on the bones at the end of the film with some still shots and words that tell us that Zamperini’s faith led him to return to Japan on a personal mission of reconciliation. In media appearances, Jolie has refused to discuss why the most remarkable part of Zamperini’s story was excluded from the film. That would be the night he was converted at the 1949 Billy Graham crusade in Los Angeles. As Hillenbrand tells it in her book, Louis came home, poured his alcohol down the drain, threw out his cigarettes, was reconciled to his wife and became a new
man because, he said, he had asked Jesus Christ to be his savior. As stories about faith have made a recent comeback on TV and in movies, attracting high ratings and large ticket sales at the box office, it is puzzling why Jolie, who directed the film, and the Coen brothers, who wrote it, left out the most important part of Zamperini’s story. Once word gets around that Zamperini’s conversion, which was so faithfully and beautifully chronicled in Hillenbrand’s book, is not in the film, I suspect many who share Louis’ faith will not buy tickets. Apologists for Universal Pictures say people can always read the rest of the story in the book. Yes, they can, but then why should they see a film that highlights only half a life? Just before he died, Jolie showed Zamperini a rough cut of the film. He professed to like it and said it doesn’t force religion down people’s throats. That’s a cliche, which doesn’t really fit in this instance. Nothing is “forced” when it is true.
The film, “Selma,” which is scheduled for release on January 9, would be incomplete if it failed to depict Martin Luther King Jr. as a minister whose faith motivated him to be a modernday Moses. Fortunately, in addition to Hillenbrand’s book, people can read Louis’ story in his own words. His book is titled, “Don’t Give Up, Don’t Give In: Lessons from an Extraordinary Life.” The One who preserved his life to the end is more powerful than his Japanese prison camp abuser. In the film “Kings Row,” Ronald Reagan awakens to learn that a botched operation has resulted in the amputation of his legs. “Where’s the rest of me?” he asks. Where’s the rest of Zamperini’s story is the question I had after seeing “Unbroken.” (Cal Thomas’ latest book is “What Works: Common Sense Solutions for a Stronger America” is available in bookstores now. Readers may email Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribune.com.)
Prayer for today
A verse to share
Gracious Lord, fill my life with the spirit of love and sacrifice. I bless thee for the deep fellowships and tender intimacies; and on the eve of this Christmas ask thy blessing for all, as my heart rings with joy for those whom I love. Amen.
“I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.” Psalm 145:1-3

Economy picks up, lifts Dow to 18,000 WASHINGTON — A surge in U.S. economic growth lifted stocks Tuesday to record highs and showed that the United States is putting distance between itself and struggling economies around the world. Fueled by hiring gains, cheaper gas and rising confidence, consumers and businesses drove growth to a sizzling 5 percent annual rate last quarter. Though the economy is likely cooling a bit, its solid pace is brightening hopes for 2015. The economic strength could also shape the Federal Reserve’s timetable for raising interest rates from record lows. The government’s third and final estimate of growth for the JulySeptember period was the strongest for any quarter in 11 years. The result cheered investors. In midafternoon trading, the Dow Jones industrial average was up about 93 points to 18,053, the first time it’s traded above 18,000. In its report Tuesday, the government sharply upgraded third-quarter growth from its previous 3.9 percent estimate. Much of the increase came from consumer spending on health care and business spending on structures and software.
Gay marriage cases teed up for justices WASHINGTON — Gay
marriage cases are on the Supreme Court’s agenda with enough time for the issue to be argued and decided by late June. The justices could decide as early as Jan. 9 to add same-sex marriage to their calendar this term, according to an update Tuesday on the court’s docket. That date is the first time the justices will meet in private in the new year to consider adding new cases. Most, if not all, of the cases they accept for review by mid-January will be argued in late April. The court would then have two months or so to come to a decision. Lawyers for same-sex couples in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee rushed to get their legal papers filed in time for that early January conference. The couples are appealing a decision by a panel of federal judges in November to uphold anti-gay marriage laws in those states. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati is so far the only federal appeals court that has sided with states that are seeking to preserve bans on same-sex marriage since a Supreme Court decision in June 2013 struck down part of the federal anti-gay marriage law. Four other appeals courts — in Chicago, Denver, San Francisco and Richmond, Virginia — have ruled in favor of gay and lesbian couples. Between those rul-
ings and the Supreme Court’s decision in October to turn away state appeals, the number of states allowing samesex couples to marry has risen to 35.
IRS scandal, White House not linked WASHINGTON — A House Republican investigation faults senior IRS officials in the mistreatment of conservative groups that applied for tax-exempt status, but could find no link to the White House, according to a report released Tuesday. The probe isn’t over, although investigators have reviewed 1.3 million pages of documents and interviewed 52 officials. The report, however, marks the end of Rep. Darrell Issa’s tenure leading the investigation. Issa, a Republican from California, is stepping down as chairman of the House Oversight Committee because of term limits. Issa has repeatedly clashed with the White House and congressional Democrats over the way the IRS treated tea party and other conservative groups. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, will take over the committee in January. Chaffetz has said his approach to the committee will be less confrontational. The report does not absolve anyone from blame. Instead, it complains that the IRS and the White House have not fully cooperated with the investigation.

Attorney general sued by Google JACKSON — A federal judge has denied Google Inc.’s motion to block enforcement of a subpoena issued by Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood that seeks information from Google about parts of its operations, including information about advertising for imported prescription drugs. Federal court records also show U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate put Google’s response to the subpoena on hold Monday until after the new year. Wingate scheduled a Feb. 13 hearing for further discussions on Google’s motion. He asked attorneys for both sides to file new briefs in January. In lawsuit filed this past week, Google argued Hood has tried to force the company to restrict access to content through its Internet search engine and advertising and on its videosharing site, YouTube. Hood filed the 79-page subpoena in October. He argued there is probable cause to show that Google is violating Mississippi consumer protection laws. “The Attorney General has engaged in a sustained campaign of threats against Google,” the Mountain View, California-based company said in its lawsuit.
areas around the Mississippi River bridges at Memphis, Tennessee, to help keep an eye on the spans after a vague threat came in warning of an attack. FBI spokesmen said Tuesday the threat was unsubstantiated but that local police were still notified. Two cross-country routes traverse the Mississippi River at Memphis — Interstates 40 and 55. They remained open. Television station WHBQ in Memphis said an FBI advisory it obtained cited “potential danger” to the I-55 span from an Islamic State cell in Memphis. Highway officials reviewed plans for rerouting traffic. The Arkansas Department of Emergency Management said the threat had not reached a level requiring it to put anyone on stand-by. Spokesman Rick Fahr said threats that include specifics are rare.
DeSoto coroner, tax collector plan to run HERNANDO — Two of DeSoto county’s longestserving officials, Coroner Jeff Pounders and Tax Collector Joey Treadway, say they are running again in 2015. “I’m going to go for it one more time,” said Pounders, 60, about seeking a ninth term. He was elected in 1987 and re-elected six times. The Commercial Appeal reports that the qualifying deadline to seek county office is March 1. Primary elections are in August with the general election in November. The 60-year-old Pounders will be seeking a ninth term. “Yes.” said Treadway, 67, when asked re-election plans. “I love my job.” Another longtime DeSoto official Chancery Clerk W.E. “Sluggo” Davis, says he’s retiring at the end of his current, seventh term in January 2016.

A deer hunter’s ‘Night Before Christmas’ poem BY DAVID MOSESSO For the Daily Corinthian
’Twas the night before Christmas, I was driving in my truck, Headed to the woods in search of a buck. My broadheads were ready and honed with extra care, Sharp enough to shave even the toughest of hair. The morning came early as I rose from my bed, While visions of a typical ten-pointer danced in my head. The drive was a long one, but I knew I must go, For I hadn’t used a tag, no, not even for a doe. While climbing my tree, I tried not to clatter, Knowing my efforts to a deer really didn’t matter. Their senses are keen, much to our dislike, But that’s what makes them so worthy of a twomile hike. My Wedge-loc was hung in the oak tree with care, On the downwind side of his trail in the midst of his lair. My plan was to catch him while headed to bed, On the way back from the soybeans where all night he fed. The sounds came so softly, like a mouse softly talking, Those anticipated steps of a deer slowly walking. With the sun barely breaking, there wasn’t much light, My fingers were crossed that an arrow might take flight. The breeze it did blow, but in no certain direction, I hoped that somehow I’d escape his detection.
When all of a sudden he appeared in the dawn, No! I couldn’t believe it, it was only a fawn. Dad’gum’it! I said as she walked into sight, As desperate as I am, she’d have to live another night. My heart ceased its racing and my knees returned to still, A buck I was after and a buck I would kill! Murphy’s Law it seemed had followed me that day, Please Lord, can’t I have some luck come my way? I’ve taken all the kidding one man could tolerate, The stress and the pressure only a buck could alleviate. And then, the sound, yes the rustling of the leaves, Oh! please let it be! Did you hear me? I said please! He came with a soft grunt, his head hanging low, Surely he’d see me if I reached for my bow. It was the typical tenpoint that had consumed all my dreams, He was tall and quite wide, with heavy main beams. The mid one-sixties, was bout what he’d score, Or perhaps he’s a Booner, I wasn’t for sure. The buck came quite quickly, as I prepared for the shot, Like any good bowhunter, just pick a spot. I can see it as it happened just like yesterday, I’ve lived it many times like an instant replay. My aim was true, the re-
lease was in proper form, The limb was the problem, for that limb I did scorn! The arrow deflected and continued to fly, Over the back of the buck, it was now time to cry. My hunt was over on this chilly Christmas Eve, The trip home offered me much time to grieve. He was only ten yards, we could have almost kissed. To this day I’ll never understand how I could possibly have missed. The story was different that I told at the store, “I passed on the buck, he was a 3.5 year old for sure. He was a shooter to many but to me I did pass, It was my transcendence into the trophy hunting class.” Deep down inside I knew the time would be long, That a big ten-point would scurry down the trail I was on. So please learn this lesson if you must from this story, If you ever plan to make it into the halls of hunting glory. Practice, yes practice, all summer long, Condition yourself to be agile and strong. Most importantly don’t forget while picking your tree, Clear all the limbs, yes take it from me. I hope that you and your family have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. (David Mosesso is publisher of The Jonesboro (Ark.) Sun.)

Gifts of jewelry catch on Associated Press
BOSTON — What started with a widow quietly dropping her wedding rings into a Salvation Army donation kettle has spawned spontaneous acts of jewelry generosity this holiday season. Boston’s feel-good Christmas story took a new twist this week when an anonymous donor originally from Australia placed a diamond-encrusted cross pendant valued at $1,500 in one of the charity’s trademark red kettles. The donor said she was inspired by a widow who gave her wedding and diamond engagement rings earlier this month and asked that the proceeds be used to buy toys for poor children. That was followed by another widow who donated $21,000 — 10 times what the rings were worth — so she could return the donated jewelry to the original owner. The Salvation Army said Tuesday the Australian woman donated her pendant to thank Bostonians for their warm welcome when she and her son relocated to the city. It was accompanied by a note that read: “I needed to find somewhere for us, particularly my son, to be happy again. We had visited Boston several times and always loved it here. Since relocating, people have been so warm, friendly, kind and accommodating to us, and I have been trying to think of a way to give back to the people of Boston.” The donor said she was trying to figure out how best to help the poor when she saw news accounts of the widow who gave her rings in memory of her late husband.

Oil stockpile
The average interest rate on a 30-year, fixed mortgage declined to 3.80 percent last week, a new low for the year. Did the drop result in a pickup in applications for home loans last week? Find out today, when the Mortgage Bankers Association delivers its weekly survey of mortgage applications. Home loan applications have been mostly declining in recent weeks. They spiked the first week of December, but fell a week later.
The Energy Department reports its latest tally of U.S. crude oil stockpiles today. The nation’s crude oil supplies fell two weeks ago by 0.9 percent to 379.9 million barrels. A drop in the nation’s crude oil inventories typically boosts the price of oil. Crude oil prices have plunged since peaking at $107 a barrel in June.

Ring in the new year: Say goodbye to smoking BY BRITTANY JACKS MSU Ag Communications
STARKVILLE — Smoking can be a hard habit to kick, but it can be done with the right amount of determination. Quitting smoking is at the top of many smokers’ New Year’s resolutions list. Smoking is a dangerous health risk, and quitting would contribute to a healthier lifestyle. David Buys, health specialist with the Mississippi State University Extension Service, said two main factors trigger smoking. “Peer pressure and stress are the two main
factors for why an individual begins smoking in the first place,� he said. “Many people begin smoking at a young age; nearly 90 percent of smokers began smoking by the age of 18.� Buys said that if cigarette cravings become a problem after quitting, there are measures to take to ensure they are handled correctly. “Nicotine replacements are one of the ways to curb cigarette cravings,� he said. “Avoid the things you know cause you to want to smoke. Work breaks are when many people spend their
time smoking, so switch up who you take breaks with. You cannot just take smoking out of your routine. You must replace it with something. Keeping a piece of candy or gum in your mouth may also help.� Many will relapse after quitting smoking for the first time. Buys said there are ways to handle a relapse to prevent it from happening again. “Go back to what worked the first time. Identifying the trigger that caused this relapse and cutting it out is the key.� Buys also suggested
asking friends and family members who have quit smoking for tips and tricks. “Physical activity, deep breathing exercises, online support communities, accountability from family and friends and writing down small achievements throughout the day can boost your confidence,� he said. Quitting smoking benefits friends and family, in addition to the smoker. Scientists have recently discovered even residual toxins are harmful, not just the smoke itself. JuLeigh Baker, health and wellness educa-
tor for the MSU Health Education and Wellness Department, said recent research findings indicate that third-hand smoke can harm those around a smoker. “Third-hand smoke is the toxins from the cigarettes that are left on a person’s clothing, hair, chairs or in the car. They are not visible to the naked eye, but get stirred up as a person moves around,� she said. “These can then be inhaled by others. So a parent who says ‘I am not hurting my kids since I do not smoke around them,’ is actually doing a lot of harm to
those they love.� Baker said there are major differences between the health of a nonsmoker and the health of a smoker. “Non-smokers have a much lower risk of cancer, heart disease and lung problems,� she said. “They heal faster when they are sick or have surgery. They have a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes and a lower cost of insurance and health care. Non-smokers do not have to go outside in the cold or rain to satisfy a craving, and in general, they live longer, healthier lives.�
Make a New Year’s resolution this January to get more sleep BY BRITTANY JACKS Ag Communications
STARKVILLE — New Year’s Resolutions can be difficult to maintain, but one that is worth keeping is getting more sleep at night. David Buys, state health specialist for the Mississippi State University Extension Service and researcher with the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station, said a lack of sleep can lead to serious problems at home, on the job and on the road. “Sleep deprivation may
lead to drowsiness and an inability to focus and concentrate,� he said. “Additionally, it is linked to drowsy driving; higher likelihood depression and substance abuse; and an inability to react to signals or remember new information.� Buys offered some tips for those interested in getting enough sleep. “Some things you can do to get enough sleep on a routine basis include keeping a schedule and sleeping and waking at the same time each day,� Buys said. “Other ways
include exercising, but not too close to bedtime; avoiding stimulants, including caffeine, alcohol or nicotine before bed; having mealtime several hours before bedtime; and keeping TV and electronic devices away from the bed.� Lori Elmore-Staton, assistant professor for the MSU School of Human Sciences, said that sleep deprivation can affect health. “Although we do not
completely understand the effects of sleep on your health, we do know that sleep plays a role in the regulation of hormones,� she said. “Recent research suggests that the misalignment of the circadian rhythms due to irregular sleep patterns may be increasing risks of cancer and diabetes.� But there are shortterm risks associated with lack of sleep, too. “There are a number of Bus: (662) 286-5430 Fax: (662) 286-5431

health problems related to shortened or irregular sleep patterns, as immune system functioning is weakened when sleep is not optimal. That means that when you do not get the optimal, quality or amount of sleep, you are more susceptible to common illnesses, such as colds and stomach viruses,� she said. Staton said that being
sleep deprived can also increase weight gain. “Sleep deprivation is associated with obesity,� she said. “It is thought that appetite hormones are affected by sleep and when you don’t get enough sleep, your brain tells you that you are hungry. It does not signal you are full as fast, and it may make you crave more unhealthy foods.�

Lonely soldier must reach out to others for comfort D E A R ABBY: I am a soldier in Afghanistan who is single with few friends, if you would even Abigail call them We Van Buren that. work 24/7. No days off, Dear Abby no breaks. It’s not an easy life. You would not believe how nice it is to receive a message from family or friends. Don’t get me wrong, I have a loving family who support me and everything I do. When I first got here, I’d get a message from them at least once a week. But now that I am seven months into a 12-month deployment, it has been almost two months since I have gotten anything. Now, I know if I reach out and send a message -- which I have done -- I’ll get replies, but am I wrong for not wanting to have to do that? Is it wrong to wish that I could come in, relax, and find a message waiting for me? I know they love me and are busy with their lives, but sometimes it seems that I am forgotten. It would be comforting to know someone is thinking about me. Any day now could be my last. -- DEPLOYED SOLDIER DEAR DEPLOYED SOLDIER: Because you’re feeling
lonely and forgotten, it’s important to let your family and friends back home know how you feel. They are not mind readers. You say you heard from them in the early months of your deployment. But have you reached out to them recently? If you haven’t, they may assume you are being kept so busy that you are unable to stay in touch with them. The surest way to get what you need is to communicate -- and that applies to more situations in life than this one. DEAR ABBY: I am a senior in high school in Texas. Everyone has decided which college they want to go to and what they want to be. I have no clue. It is frustrating, because when adults ask what my plans for the future are and I say I don’t know, they look at me like I’m stupid. I feel 18 years isn’t long enough to figure all that out. I am an introvert, and I would really like to open up a cute little cafe in New York when I am older. But every time I tell someone this is what I’d like to do, they ask how I’m going to make money at it. They’re right -- I can’t make a living off a coffee shop, especially with the high cost of living in New York. I’m lost and don’t know what to do. I have less than a year to figure things out, and it’s starting to stress me. Please
give me some advice. I need a friend. -- LOST IN TEXAS DEAR LOST: You not only need a friend, you also need a counselor to help you find direction. If there isn’t one at your school, consider discussing this with a career counselor at a nearby university or community college. Some courses in business administration would be valuable for you so you can learn the nuts and bolts about running a business and avoid common mistakes that might cause yours to fail. Some classes in commercial cooking would also be helpful. If there isn’t a trade school nearby that offers them, consider working for a year or two in the restaurant industry to see how it functions. Many of the best chefs in the world started out that way, and you will learn quickly if this is something you really want to pursue. P.S. Being an introvert doesn’t have to stop you, if you partner with someone who’s a people person to work the front of the shop and teach you the art of “schmoozing.” 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). Your passion will inspire others, even those who don’t share your subject of interest. It’s not the topic that matters anyhow; it’s your intensity level. There is great joy coursing through your veins. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can read about an experience and get a taste for it, but what really counts is first-hand experience. Wherever possible, put yourself in the situation. There is no substitute for real life. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Stay keen to interpersonal dynamics. The one who is in charge doesn’t always have a title. The one running the show may be the smallest, youngest and weakest. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Begin with the end in mind -the end you want, that is. Don’t even think about the end you don’t want. Avoiding pain won’t work half as well as aiming for
pleasure. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Some shrink from danger, others seek it, and still others meet it when they must -- that’s you. Risk doesn’t bother you, as long as it’s calculated. You’ll get busy assessing your odds. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The surface of things will tell one story, but the whole story requires more effort. When they know you are really interested, they will want to tell you the truth. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The actors know it, and now you do, too -- it’s hard work to be someone you’re not, but it can be fun and enlightening work, as well. A bit of pretending will expand you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Once you establish your standards, you will live up to them -- and so will those around you. Each choice you make to improve your health and vitality will greatly enhance your per-
sonal life. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You know the secret: The seemingly mundane is actually quite miraculous. That’s why you try to understand the science behind things and figure out what makes them work. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will anticipate what others need before they need it. You’ll be humble and honest, even as you sell yourself. Just don’t forget the part where you sell yourself -- it’s necessary. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). An enchanting presence lets you know you are wanted, not needed. This is the ideal dynamic. The pressure is off, and you feel you can really be yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People tell you much more than you wanted to know, and this will entertain you. You’ll learn of colorful pasts and secret intentions. Maybe you should write a book.

Title sponsor Sprint announces exit from NASCAR after 2016 season
“Hey, we have been through this before and we may get a company that will help us return to the glory days! We need a company with the money of Microsoft and the ideas of the old RJR and we will be better off.” He also wrote that he’d like to see the new title sponsor cut back on its commercials during race broadcasts and get back to showing the action on the track instead. “Maybe someone will come in with enough money to simplify things that we will be able to cut “Humpy” Wheeler sees the the number of ads in half so we exit of Sprint in two years as a don’t continue to pulverize the chance for NASCAR to regain fans [with] so many billboards, some of its magic from the etc. Hope we get there with the Winston era. company that is going to be the next sponsor!” NASCAR spokesman Brett Jewkes issued a statement about the upcoming change. “NASCAR and Sprint have enjoyed a long and productive partnership that has returned significant value to both parties. We understand significant changes within Sprint and the highly competitive business environment it is in has led to a decision not to extend its Cup Series entitlement position following the 2016 season. The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is a very unique, premium sports marketing platform with strong momentum, so we are very confident of moving forward in 2017 with an outstanding new partner. In the meantime, we look forward to Sprint’s partnership on the best racing series in the world for the next two seasons.”
NASCAR expands starting field for 2015 Sprint Unlimited at Daytona
Rutledge Wood has joined a large group of veteran NASCAR TV reporters who have moved to NBC as the network prepares to begin covering NASCAR racing in 2015. Wood will present features on the storied raceways, unique towns and enthusiastic fans that make NASCAR an American treasure, according to a release from NBC. “Rutledge brings a unique combination of knowledge and enthusiasm to his work that will help us shine a spotlight on the tracks and communities we visit throughout the year, and bring them to life,” said Jeff Behnke, vice president of NASCAR production for NBC Sports and NBCSN. Wood will also continue as co-host of Top Gear on the History Channel, the American version of the BBC program that carries the same name. Others who have joined the on-air NBC lineup include Krista Voda, Rick Allen, Steve Letarte, Jeff Burton, Dave Burns, Mike Massaro, Marty Snider, Kelli Stavast and Kyle Petty.
Dave Allen has been promoted to the position of president of Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California, taking over the job that had been held by Gillian Zucker, who has moved on to become president of business operations for the Los Angeles Clippers of the NBA. Allen, 41, has worked at the track since 1999, when it was known as California Speedway. Since 2008, he has been the track’s vice president of sales and marketing. Allen, his wife and three children, live in Upland, California.
Ray Black Jr. to compete full-time in CWTS
Ray Black Jr. has been named the full-time driver of the No. 07 Chevrolet fielded by SS Green Light Racing in the Camping World Truck Series. Black, 23, is from Palm Coast, Florida, where he began his racing career at age 14 in Mini Cup cars. He ran seven Truck Series races in 2014, the maximum to still be eligible for Rookie of the Year honors in 2015. His best finishes were a pair of 18ths, at Texas Motor Speedway and at Chicagoland Speedway. “Hopefully, we can make something happen in the Rookie of the Year battle, but I know there will be other strong rookies contending for it, so it’s going to be tough,” Black said in a team release. “We’ll go out there and run as we can and have clean races and finish races. We’ll let the dice roll and see how they land. “I’ve waited a long time for this opportunity and now that it’s official, I can’t wait to get it going. I couldn’t be more happy for the team; it’s a great group of guys that I really enjoy being around.” The team is run by former driver Bobby Dotter.
Kerr named crew chief in Xfinity Series
Frank Kerr, who raced sprint cars until he was 39, then went on to a career as a NASCAR crew chief, has been hired by Richard Petty Motorsports to be crew chief for Dakoda Armstrong in the Xfinity Series. Kerr most recently worked with David Gilliland and the No. 38 Sprint Cup team at Front Row Motorsports. Kerr has two Xfinity Series wins, both with Marcos Ambrose, in just five races in the series formerly known as Nationwide.
David Gilliland to expand short-track team Sprint Cup veteran David Gilliland is looking for an up-and-coming short-track driver to join his short-track racing team, David Gilliland Racing. Gilliland’s team, which he runs with his wife, Michelle, has been in business since 1998. Last year, their 14-year-old son Todd drove the team’s No. 98 Late Model and won a pole and a feature race. The team will provide its new driver with equipment including cars, an experienced crew chief and spotter, and personal coaching from Gilliland. “When we built our program, we made sure we did it right,” Gilliland said. “We ensured we had the best equipment and the best experience put together to offer someone the best opportunity to showcase their talent.” Interested candidates should contact Chris Janosko at cjanosko@davidgillilandracing.com.
Folds of Honor, QuikTrip to sponsor second NUMERICALLY race of 2015 Sprint Cup season SPEAKING Richard Childress Racing
RCR names Todd Parrott as Xfinity Series competition director Veteran Sprint Cup crew chief Todd Parrott has been hired by Richard Childress Racing to be the team’s competition director for the Xfinity Series. Parrott, the son of longtime crew chief Buddy Parrott, has been a crew chief himself for 20 years. He has won 31 races and the 1999 Todd Parrott Cup championship with driver Dale Jarrett. Parrott said in a team release that Childress’ teams in the series formerly known as Nationwide already are among the league’s best. “They already have a solid program, and it’s now up to me to take the ball and run with it for next year,” he said. “I’m looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead, winning several races and adding another championship for the organization.” Parrott, 50, will work under Eric Warren, the director of competition for RCR. “I worked with Todd Parrott for several years at a prior team and I have never met a more passionate person when it comes to working hard and winning races,” Warren said. “Todd is organized and has great instincts about how to get performance out of both cars and teams. He is a proven winner with championship talent and has always overachieved with every team for whom he’s worked.”

NASCAR has expanded the starting field for the 2015 season-opening non-points Sprint Unlimited at Daytona International Speedway to include all 16 drivers in the 2014 Chase for the Sprint Cup and Danica Patrick. The Feb. 14 event, which in years past was limited to pole winners from the previous season and former winners of the event, will include a minimum of 25 drivers. The field will be comprised of Sprint Cup pole winners from 2014, former Danica Patrick is eligible for the 2015 Unlimited winners and former Sprint Unlimited due to her 2013 Daytona Daytona 500 pole winners (Pat- 500 pole. rick’s ticket to the event), with the remaining spots filled by the highest drivers in the 2014 points standings not already in the race. “The 2015 Sprint Unlimited has potential to be one of the most competitive ever,” NASCAR Executive Vice President and Chief Racing Development Officer Steve O’Donnell said in a statement announcing the change in the driver eligibility. “With more drivers eligible, the intensity level increases for our fans and competitors, making for a compelling start to the 2015 season.” In addition to the 2014 Chase drivers, the 2015 eligible participants include Austin Dillon, who drove the No. 3 Chevrolet to the Daytona 500 pole last year, and his fellow 2014 pole winners David Gilliland, Kyle Larson, Jamie McMurray, Brian Scott and Tony Stewart. Martin Truex Jr. got in, along with Patrick, as a former Daytona 500 pole winner who competed full-time last year, as the rules require. Brian Vickers also earned a starting spot as a 2014 pole winner, but he will miss the race as he recovers from heart surgery.
Rutledge Wood joins NASCAR TV coverage group for 2015
Allen promoted at Auto Club Speedway
Humpy Wheeler
On the surface, the news last week that Sprint — the title sponsor of NASCAR’s elite series — was exiting the sport after the 2016 season might appear to be a setback for the NASCAR world. But it could be a blessing in disguise. Although the title sponsor probably shouldn’t be held accountable for the recent downturn in attendance, TV viewership and overall popularity of the sport, it is a fact that the decline has come during the time that first Nextel, and then Sprint, were title sponsors. Nextel came on board in 2004, replacing longtime sponsor Winston. Winston, its parent company, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., and its marketing arm, Sports Marketing Enterprises, helped guide NASCAR over a 30-year period as it grew to be one of the nation’s most popular sports. Winston withdrew largely because of limits placed by the government on advertising by tobacco companies. In Winston’s day, the company worked with tracks to improve facilities and added events like the All-Star Race — known simply as the Winston in the beginning — and pumped cash into the purse structure and points fund. Representatives of Winston also worked with the media, providing statistics, improved facilities and better access to drivers. Winston also spent money at the grassroots level, with cash flowing to track operators for improvements and to drivers for a national points program. Many a short track across America still sports the red colors of Winston, and many of the sport’s biggest stars got their start at tracks supported by Winston. Former Charlotte Motor Speedway president H.A. “Humpy” Wheeler is among those who see the exit of Sprint as a chance for NASCAR to regain some of the magic it enjoyed in the Winston era. “Sprint’s decision to leave NASCAR in 2016 could actually be a boost to the sport,” Wheeler wrote on his Facebook page. “With a new TV contract then and the solving of the aero push problem, which means we will get back to passing for the lead, a new company could step in and reap the benefit of the change.
NOTEBOOK
Atlanta Motor Speedway has announced a title sponsor for its March 1 Sprint Cup race. Folds of Honor, a nonprofit organization that provides educational scholarships and assistance to families of men and women who have been killed or disabled while serving in the U.S. military, and convenience store chain QuikTrip, will combine to back the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500. “I have had a love for speed my entire life. To combine the speed of NASCAR with the powerful, life-changing force of Folds of Honor is simply beyond my wildest dreams,” Maj. Dan Rooney, founder of Folds of Honor, said in announcing the sponsorship. “Thank you to QuikTrip for being a longterm partner to Folds of Honor and for fueling the future of our military families.” Folds of Honor, founded in 2007, is based in Owasso, Oklahoma, and over the years has awarded more than 7,500 scholarships, including more than 2,000 this year, according to a release from AMS. The Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 will be the second race of the 2015 Sprint Cup season and the first run under the new engine rules mandated by NASCAR for tracks other than Daytona International Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway, where restrictor plates are used to slow speeds. The 500 is part of a three-day event that includes a double-header for the Camping World Truck Series and the Xfinity Series on Saturday, Feb. 28. There also will be an open practice session for Cup drivers on Thursday, Feb. 26.

AP College Football Writer
The only thing left for Marcus Mariota to win at Oregon is the national championship. The Ducks’ star quarterback is The Associated Press college football player of the year, adding yet another honor to his spectacular season. Mariota won the AP vote in the same landslide fashion he won the Heisman Trophy. He received 49 of the 54 votes submitted by the AP Top 25
media panel. Alabama receiver Amari Cooper drew three votes. Wisconsin running back Melvin Gordon and Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston had one vote each. Mariota is the first Oregon player to win AP player of the year, which was first awarded in 1998, and the eighth quarterback to win it in the last nine years. The junior has also won the Maxwell Award and Walter Camp player of the year, and
the Davey O’Brien and Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, which go to the top quarterbacks in the country. Oregon will face Florida State and last year’s Heisman winner and AP player of the year, Winston, in the College Football Playoff semifinals on Jan. 1 at the Rose Bowl. The winner will face Alabama or Ohio State in the national championship game Jan. 12 at AT&T Stadium in North Texas.
With his combination of speed and a strong arm, Mariota is a play of the day waiting to happen. He set a Pac-12 record by accounting for 53 touchdowns, including 38 TD passes. He is the highest rated passer in the country (186.33) and has thrown for 3,783 yards and just two interceptions. “He’s an absolute competitor, an incredible perfectionist,” Oregon coach Mark Helfrich said.
NFL domestic violence story of 2014 BY RACHEL COHEN AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK — The NFL’s troubles with domestic violence were selected the sports story of the year Tuesday in an annual vote conducted by The Associated Press. Ninety-four ballots were submitted from U.S. editors and news directors. Voters were asked to rank the top 10 sports stories of the year, with the first-place story receiving 10 points, the second-place story nine points and so on. NFL domestic violence received 659 points and 29 firstplace votes. The No. 2 sports story, Clippers owner Donald Sterling forced out by the NBA after his racist statements, had 518 points. Here are 2014’s top 10 stories: 1. NFL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: Baltimore Ravens star running back Ray Rice knocked his now-wife unconscious in an Atlantic City casino elevator Feb. 15, but it wasn’t until July 24 that domestic violence cases spiraled into a crisis roiling the NFL. Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended Rice for just two games, which drew widespread derision. More than a month passed before Goodell admitted he “didn’t get it right” and announced harsher sanctions for future domestic violence offenses. But the NFL’s problems were only beginning. On Sept. 8, TMZ Sports released
video from inside the elevator that showed Rice punching his then-fiancee; the Ravens responded by releasing him and Goodell suspended him indefinitely. And on Sept. 12, one of the league’s biggest stars, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, was indicted on felony child abuse charges for using a wooden switch to discipline his 4-year-old son. The Vikings initially planned to play him just over a week later, reversing course only after the ensuing uproar. The year ends with Rice reinstated by an arbitrator but without a team and Peterson suspended and suing the NFL. Chastened by those and other cases, the league is pushing a new personal conduct policy, but the players’ union is balking at Goodell’s role in the disciplinary process. 2. CLIPPERS’ STERLING BANNED: Donald Sterling had withstood accusations of racism throughout his more than three decades as owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. But when audio surfaced April 25 of Sterling spewing racist remarks, he was banned for life by new NBA Commissioner Adam Silver just four days later and forced to sell the team. 3. LEBRON GOES HOME: This time, LeBron James decided to return home. Four years after spurning Cleveland to sign with the Miami Heat, the Northeast Ohio na-
tive and four-time NBA MVP announced July 11 that he was rejoining the Cavaliers to try to end the city’s half-century title drought. 4. FIRSTS FOR GAY ATHLETES: Jason Collins became the first openly gay man to play in the big four North American pro sports leagues when he made his debut with the Brooklyn Nets on Feb. 23. The veteran center had come out 10 months earlier, a trailblazing moment that helped inspire other athletes and sports officials to follow his lead in 2014. That included Missouri All-American Michael Sam, who went on to be drafted into the NFL, though he has yet to play in a game. 5. GIANTS WIN WORLD SERIES: Madison Bumgarner pitched seven dominant innings to win Game 1 of the World Series. Then the San Francisco ace topped himself with a shutout in Game 5. He outdid himself yet again with five scoreless innings of relief in Game 7 to clinch the Giants’ third championship in five years. 6. COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF PAYS OFF: Ohio State lost to Virginia Tech on Sept. 6. Oregon was upset by Arizona on Oct. 2, and Alabama fell to Ole Miss two days later. The rest of those teams’ regular-season games still mattered because of the new College Football Playoff, which made more and more matchups meaningful deep into the fall.
7. TONY STEWART: One of NASCAR’s biggest stars, Tony Stewart, was taking part in a small sprint car race in upstate New York on Aug. 9 when he struck and killed 20-year-old driver Kevin Ward Jr. A grand jury decided not to bring criminal charges against Stewart, who skipped three NASCAR races as he grieved. 8. WORLD CUP: Brazil’s World Cup was a big celebration until those German goals started piling up. The expected massive protests didn’t materialize, and the construction delays caused few headaches. The major disappointment came on the field when the hosts, without injured star Neymar, were thrashed 7-1 in the semifinals by eventual champion Germany. 9. SEAHAWKS WIN SUPER BOWL: Richard Sherman’s Seattle defense was way too much for Peyton Manning’s Denver offense. The Seahawks flustered and flattened the Broncos with a 43-8 victory in the Super Bowl, when the weather cooperated outdoors in New Jersey. 10. SOCHI OLYMPICS: The Sochi Olympics opened amid fears of terrorist attacks and denunciations of Russia’s socalled “gay propaganda” law. The games went on peacefully, with the hosts winning 33 medals — though not in hockey. But by the closing ceremony, darkness lurked nearby in the world in violence in Ukraine.
Summitt easing into head coaching career BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer
STARKVILLE, Miss. — Tyler Summitt stares through his wire-rimmed glasses at a recent Louisiana Tech women’s basketball practice, watching with intensity as his players sprint, shift and shout instructions to each other during a drill emphasizing zone defense. He sees something he doesn’t like and a shrill whistle pierces the air. Then the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer Pat Summitt gets into a defensive stance and begins his lecture. For associate head coach Mickie DeMoss — who spent two decades as an assistant at Tennessee on Tyler’s mom’s staff — watching it is strange juxtaposition. The laser-like focus reminds her of Pat. The measured tone in his message does not. “This is killing us,” Summitt said firmly but quietly. “You’re here and we need you right over here. Don’t sink back. Pay attention to the details. It matters. Does that make sense?”
“The only thing he is lacking is hardcore experience.” Mickie DeMoss Louisiana Tech head coach on Tyler Summitt Summitt is trying to prove what does make sense is Louisiana Tech hiring a 23-yearold to revive a once-proud program. His family pedigree is unquestioned, but there was some shock that a program with the tradition of Louisiana Tech would hire Pat’s son, who just turned 24 in September. “Seeing (Summitt) on the court has only reaffirmed what we liked about him when we made the hire,” Louisiana Tech athletic director Tommy McClelland said. “It’s really a tough brand of basketball, he expects a lot from his players and he holds them accountable.” McClelland said the program’s season-ticket base has nearly doubled — up to about
700 — since Summitt’s arrival. The Lady Techsters have a 4-5 record after losing to Utah on Saturday. Pat Summitt has been watching from afar. She attended Tyler’s homeopening victory against Loyola (La.) on Dec. 7 in Ruston, Louisiana, but usually watches Louisiana Tech’s games on the internet. “Tyler started helping me coach when he was about 5 years old,” Summitt, who won 1,098 games and eight national championships with the Lady Volunteers, said in an email response through her foundation. “Seriously, the gym is such a natural place for us to be, it just feels like we’ve switched seats.” Tyler and DeMoss said Pat Summitt still lives in Knoxville, Tennessee and is doing well, staying busy with hobbies after her coaching career was shortened by early onset Alzheimer’s disease. Tyler Summitt isn’t quite as emotional on the sidelines as his mom, though he believes that’s more of a generational shift in coaching philosophy than a difference in person-
ality. One thing that the two definitely share: An affinity for long hours and constant film study. “I thought it was completely normal to climb into bed with my laptop at 2 a.m. and spend another hour dissecting film,” Summitt said laughing. “Then I got married and my wife assured me that it wasn’t normal at all.” He and his mother also share a commitment to defense. Summitt didn’t allow a basketball on the court during the preseason until the third practice, and then only after pleading from the assistant coaches. “I had to practically beg him to do it,” DeMoss said laughing. DeMoss was Tyler’s first recruiting coup. He convinced the 59-year-old to leave her job in the WNBA as an assistant coach for the Indiana Fever and join his staff as the associate head coach. Mississippi State veteran coach Vic Schaefer said it might prove to be Summitt’s best move. Please see SUMMITT | 13A
Memphis, BYU, conference pledge review of Beach Bowl fight Associated Press
The president of the University of Memphis says he has asked the school’s athletic director to work with coach Justin Fuente in investigating the postgame fight that broke out between BYU and the Tigers after the Miami Beach Bowl. “We will provide an-
other statement after the completion of that inquiry,” Memphis president M. David Rudd said in a statement issued Tuesday. “We have the highest expectations of sportsmanship for all of our student-athletes at the University of Memphis. I am very confident in (athletic director) Tom Bowen and Coach Fuente’s
leadership and know that working together we will be able to ensure incidents like this do not happen in the future.” American Athletic Conference commissioner Mike Aresco released a statement saying he has been in contact with Memphis officials and the league will work with the
school in determining violations of the conference’s code of sportsmanship. Memphis is a member of the American. BYU is an independent in football. Earlier in the day, Bowen said he and Fuente would review video over the next few days and take “appropriate disciplinary measures.” He added: “Hope-
fully, it will be a learning lesson for both teams.” BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe tweeted last Monday night that “we expect better of our athletes, even in the face of a difficult loss. We intend to fully review this matter. I apologize to Cougar Nation.” The Tigers beat BYU 5548 in overtime in the first
Miami Beach Bowl. After DaShaughn Terry’s game-clinching interception, dozens of players from both sidelines headed toward the middle of the field, with many punching and grabbing. Cameras showed blood streaming from the face of BYU defensive back Kai Nacua after begin punched.

Peavy, Giants finalize $24 million, 2-year pact The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Jake Peavy and the San Francisco Giants have finalized a $24 million, two-year contract. The deal was agreed to last week and completed Tuesday. Peavy, 33, will receive a $4 million signing bonus, $7 million next season and
$13 million in 2016. The contract includes a full no-trade provision and award bonuses. After beginning 1-9 with Boston, Peavy went 6-4 with a 2.17 ERA in 12 starts for San Francisco. He was 1-2 in four postseason outings as the Giants won their third title in five years.
SUMMITT CONTINUED FROM 12A
“The thing that impresses me about Tyler is he’s smart enough to know he can’t do it by himself,� Schaefer said. “He went and got Mickie DeMoss as his associate head coach who has been in it as long as I have. She’s been through the wars. She’s won championships. She’s got credibility.� Said DeMoss: “It was an indirect way of helping Pat through Tyler. ... But if I thought he was your typical 24-year-old, there is no way I would have taken this job.� Louisiana Tech senior Whitney Frazier said the team benefits from the duo’s leadership. Frazier, stunned and initially skeptical of Summitt’s hiring, said Tyler’s mix of confidence, knowledge and optimism quickly won the team over at his first meeting with players. “I totally forget that he’s basically our age,� Frazier said. See added that DeMoss “helps him and has a big role, but there’s no doubt
he’s the head coach.� Summitt said Louisiana Tech, with its tradition, is the ideal place to start his career. The Lady Techsters made 13 Final Four appearances throughout the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s. But the program has slowly slid into anonymity over the past decade — former coach Teresa Witherspoon last April was fired after back-toback losing seasons. “The best thing is I don’t have to build this from the ground up,� said Summitt, who spent two seasons as assistant at Marquette. “We have lots of fans. We have the boosters. We have everything you need to be successful.� And DeMoss believes Summitt has all the necessities to get it done. “The only thing he is lacking is hardcore experience,� DeMoss said. “Just being there, done that, I made a mistake, I’m not going to do that again. I think that hopefully my job here is to help him avoid some of those bumps that I hit and his mom hit.�

Uncle worries about nephew’s future WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD
FORT KNOX
PICKLES
Dear Annie: I am a concerned uncle at an impasse. I have a young adult nephew who seems perfectly content not to go anywhere in life. “Peter” wasn’t the smartest kid in school, but he managed to graduate. He now moves from job to job, never keeping one for more than six months. He seems perfectly fine with living at home and visiting my elderly father in senior housing. When I talk to Peter about his behavior, he pays no attention. He only wants to hang around and play video games and see friends who don’t help. He doesn’t think very highly of himself, though I tell him he is capable of being anything he wants. He seems to be immature for his age and still in the selfgratification stage. He has no interest in becoming an adult, earning a paycheck and moving out. I worry he sometimes takes advantage of my dad, who is reluctant to see Peter’s faults. The kid really needs a hard dose of reality, but I can’t get through to him. I don’t want him to be like this and live in his mother’s house for the rest of his life or, worse, end up in trouble and be a burden on society. Is there any way to enlighten him? -- Run Out of Ideas Dear Run Out: You sound like a caring uncle, but Peter has to want this for himself,
Annie’s Mailbox and he’s not there yet. It also doesn’t help when others around him enable his freeloading, irresponsible behavior. This includes his parents, who should be the first in line to handle this. We recommend you stop trying to “enlighten” Peter and simply be a good role model for him. Demonstrate adult male behavior and the respect it engenders. Be someone he can turn to for help, and not another person in his life who is chastising him for coming up short. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Indy,” the 62-year-old woman who was forced to retire, and who is lonely and struggles to make ends meet. I, too, am from Indiana, and I thought, “You don’t have to feel that way!” As you suggested, getting involved is the answer. I am a 61-year-old former schoolteacher, and my husband travels a lot. I was getting into the same rut, and it’s not a nice place to be. I thought about the things I really like doing. I was an art teacher, and
I love to sew. So last winter, I formed a group of neighborhood women who would come to my house once a week to sew items for our children’s hospitals. It was a huge success and a lot of fun, and it made my home a happy place. I also worked at a large fabric store that offers several rooms for local use, so I moved our little group to the store and opened it up to the entire community. We tell people to just come and sew with us -- everything is provided. . We are currently working on Christmas pillowcases for the children’s hospitals. We also make hero capes for the kids, and with the scraps, we make fun scrub hats for the doctors and nurses. We also make lap quilts and dining cover-ups for nursing homes, as well as little knit caps for newborns. There is so much to do that we run out of time, but what a great time it is. It breaks my heart to think of someone feeling the way I used to. We would love “Indy” to join us, not only to do something purposeful, but to connect with others. -- Carmel, Ind. Dear Carmel: What a lovely community project! We hope others (men, as well as women) will look into these opportunities as a way of feeling good while doing good. After all, ‘tis the season.

Christmas poll: Cards, gifts cross religious lines BY JENNIFER AGIESTA AND EMILY SWANSON Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Christmastime is here and a new poll reveals the cards and gifts that are part of celebrating the holiday are ubiquitous, even among those who don’t share the Christian beliefs behind the story of the Magi who gave the first Christmas gifts. According to the Associated Press-GfK poll, 77 percent of Americans plan to exchange gifts this holiday season and 48 percent will send greeting cards. The gift-giving set includes about 8 in 10 Christians and 73 percent of those who say they have no religious beliefs. Greeting cards also cross denominational
lines, with 53 percent of Protestants, 55 percent of Catholics and 40 percent of those without religious beliefs saying they will send cards this year. Here’s a look at how Americans view this season’s greetings:
The photo card generation Americans who aren’t religious are less likely to send cards because they tend to be younger, and young people are less apt to send cards, regardless of their religious beliefs. Fifty-two percent of nonreligious Americans over age 50 plan to send cards, not far off the 57 percent of Protestants and 64 percent of Catholics in that age group who will send
them. Young people are the least likely of all demographic groups to say they’ll send cards this year. Just 29 percent of Americans under age 30 plan to, compared with 64 percent of seniors. The young are also the least likely to receive cards. Two-thirds under age 30 receive five Christmas cards or fewer per year. Among seniors, just 18 percent receive five or fewer cards in a typical year. Those under-30s, raised in the age of email, are most likely to reject the concept of cards altogether. Asked what type of card they prefer to receive, 21 percent say none, thanks. Just 8 percent of seniors share that view. Younger adults who
do like holiday cards are more likely to say they want a photo card, while the older set tends to prefer handwritten notes or Christmas letters. A third of those under age 50 say photo cards are their favorites, compared with 18 percent of those age 50 or older. Among those 50 or older, 54 percent prefer a pre-printed or boxed card with a note or a personal signature, compared with 36 percent of younger adults. Another 12 percent age 50 or older say they’d really like a Christmas letter. And regardless of age, no one embraces the holiday e-card: Just 2 percent say they want one of those.
Marriage, gender gaps on cards, gifts
Women are more likely than men to say they will send seasonal greetings to friends or loved ones this year, with married women most likely of all to send a card full of holiday cheer. About two-thirds of married women said they will send out cards, compared with 52 percent of married men, 42 percent of unmarried women and just 31 percent of unmarried men. On the gift front, married people are more apt to give presents than those who aren’t married (82 percent plan to exchange gifts this year compared with 66 percent of those who have never been married), though the gap between men and women among married people is significantly smaller than
the card gap (84 percent of married women plan to give gifts compared with 80 percent of married men).
Handmade vs. store bought DIY is not on Americans’ wish list. Asked whether they prefer to receive a store-bought gift or a handmade one, Americans err on the side of the stores. By a 62 percent to 35 percent margin, people prefer their gifts to come from the store. Women (41 percent), rural residents (43 percent) and whites (38 percent) are most apt to favor handmade presents. When giving, however, Please see POLL | 13C

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

Volunteers bring Santa to remote Alaska village
POLL CONTINUED FROM 1C
the preference for storebought wares is even stronger. Overall, 85 percent of Americans who will exchange gifts this year say they would rather buy a gift than make one. Women (17 percent) are still more likely than men to prefer handmade gifts.
How many stamps? When it comes to cards, Americans receive more than they give. Although half say they won’t send any cards this year, just 11 percent say they don’t typically receive any cards. Among the 48 percent who say they will send a card this year, half say they will send fewer than 20 cards. Those who plan to send more drive up the
average to about 30 cards per sender, including 11 percent who say they plan to send more than 50 cards this year, presumably including one for the postman. The AP-GfK Poll of 1,010 adults was conducted online Dec. 4-8, using a sample drawn from GfK’s probability-based KnowledgePanel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 3.4 percentage points. Respondents were first selected randomly using phone or mail survey methods, and later interviewed online. People selected for KnowledgePanel who didn’t otherwise have access to the Internet were provided access at no cost to them.

SHISHMAREF, Alaska — Volunteers who brought Christmas to a remote Inupiat Eskimo community on Alaska’s western coast came bearing necessities like coats and school supplies as well as rare treats like apples, oranges and even ice cream. “‘Cause everybody loves ice cream,” said 17-yearold Cheyenne Nayokpuk when asked why anyone living 25 miles south of the Arctic Circle would want the cold treat. The Operation Santa Program and the Alaska National Guard brought toys and other gifts to Shishmaref during the Saturday visit. It’s the 58th year the program has brought a little holiday cheer to remote Alas-
ka villages, where poverty is widespread. “For some of these kids, if it weren’t for the toys we’re delivering, they might not get a toy or anything at Christmas,” said Maj. George Baker, divisional commander for the Salvation Army in Alaska. “In many respects, some of these village areas are almost like Third World villages, and a lot people don’t understand that,” he said. “You think we’re living in the United States, but for a lot of these folks, this makes Christmas for them. Were it not for (Operation) Santa, they might not have anything.” Besides Shishmaref, the other village that received a visit this year was Newtok. Both are among Alaska’s most eroded vil-
lages; both have plans to relocate, with Newtok further along in the process. The National Guard provided a C-130 transport plane to take the volunteers, including a Salvation Army band, and gifts to Shishmaref, located about 600 miles northwest of Anchorage or about 100 miles east from Russia, across the Bering Strait in the Chukchi Sea. He said it takes effort to get to the village. For anyone wanting to get there from the Lower 48 states, it would require first a flight to Anchorage, followed by another airplane ride to Nome, followed by a small-plane ride to Shishmaref. It’s a big deal for someone to come in and bring
gifts, he said. Some community members drove their snowmobiles to the airstrip to greet the arriving airplane and wave to Santa and Mrs. Claus as they got off. Before Santa and Mrs. Claus made their appearance, the children of Shishmaref welcomed the visitors with Alaska Native dances. The Clauses then arrived to a standing ovation from those in the packed gym, including the estimated 300 children who would receive gifts. Santa then met with every child — some more willing than others — before the children went down a line to receive a gift, backpack, a book and then ice cream.

The Story Behind The 12 Days Of Christmas Song
1. Partridge in a Pear Tree = Jesus Christ 2. Turtle Doves = The Old & New Testaments 3. French Hens = Faith, Hope and Charity or the Father, Son and Holy Spirit Trinity

The song was written by Christians in England as a song to teach their children about the Christian faith. The song’s “gifts’ help remember the teachings of the faith.
4. Calling Birds = The Four Gospels
“True Love” refers to God. “Me” refers to every Christian. The other symbols mean the following:
7. Swans-A-Swimming = The Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:8-10)
Wishing you you Wishing Merry aa Merry Christmas … Christmas …
