A former Alcorn County Special Education Adminis-trator received a prestigious honor in Tennessee.

Diane Whitaker, Harde-man County Special Educa-tion Director, was presented the Tennessee Association for Administrators in Special Ed-ucation (TAASE) Cup during the organization’s fall confer-ence in Sevierville, Tenn. in December.

“It was a big honor and something I didn’t even ex-pect to be nominated for,” said Whitaker who also re-ceived $500 during the award’s presentation.

The TAASE Cup was estab-lished by the organization’s board of directors. The award serves as a combined me-morial award in memory of Richard Yoakley, Paul Coffey, Jo Bellanti, and Bruce Beaty – four individuals who dem-onstrated outstanding service

and dedication to educating children with disabilities.

The TAASE Cup recognizes the Special Education super-visor who displays Instruc-tional Leadership, Organi-zational Management, along with Communication and International Relations at the highest level.

Both vehicles were headed south on Harper Road when the collision happened.

The driver of the 18-wheeler was not injured.

to take the pest off their hands, but only if they will pay him for his trouble.

Realizing that they are getting a great deal, the kidnappers consent and Johnny is returned to his

father. Ironically, he does not delight in his rescue and had actually pre-ferred the company of his kidnappers to that of his overbearing father.

According to CT-A’s website, as with most O. Henry stories, there is a twist you won’t see coming.

“The Ransom of Red Chief” is scheduled to take the stage on Friday, Feb. 28 at 7:30 p.m.

School shows will be on Feb. 25-27. Admission is $12 for adults and $6 for students.

The performance is G-rated.

from each of the three regions of the state. Whitaker, the Southwest District member of the TAASE Board of Direc-tors, was awarded the West Tennessee honor.

“I really like my job and the people I work with,” said the award re-cipient. “The Hardeman County school system is a really good system.”

Whitaker, director in Alcorn County for 10 years, is in her sixth year in Hardeman County. She retired following 29 years combined in the Corinth City and Alcorn District.

“I love where I am at and it’s worth the drive each day,” said the mother of three.

In Hardeman County, Whitaker is over special ed in all nine schools.

tor asked them to write a personal essay and submit it to the Chicken Soup for the Soul publishing com-pany which produces the ongo-ing series of inspirational books. She said she never really thought hers would be published and was fl oored when she was contacted by the company.

“I’m just an old country girl,” she said with a laugh.

Married today with three children of her own, Plaxico said her child-hood was diffi cult as she and her sib-lings were shuffl ed through different

foster homes. Her biological mother struggled with drug and alcohol ad-diction and gave the children up when Plaxico was 13.

After several unsuccessful place-ments, she was put with the Flana-gans – whom she now proudly calls “Mom” and “Dad.”

“They became my family,” she said.

The couple and their three chil-dren opened their arms to her and helped her through the diffi cult teenage years. She said they loved and supported her even when she gave them problems.

“I gave them heck. I was a typical

teenager,” she said.Being able to share the story of

how she fi nally found a loving fam-ily after her years of struggle is very special to her.

“It means a lot to me. Not all foster homes are good. I was very lucky,” she said.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Think Positive for Kids is available wher-ever books are sold. The book is co-authored by Hecules star Kevin Sorbo, and a portion of the pro-ceeds from the book benefi t the A World Fit for Kids charity.

quality time with their daughters.”The event includes a variety of

food and a professional dance fl oor with family friendly music by a live deejay. A special beauty makeover station sponsored by Beau Soi Cos-metics and Skincare will be avail-able, as well as the popular Make a Cupcake for Dad station.

“The girls get a cupcake and then are able to apply frosting and deco-rations,” said Andrea Rose, who has volunteered at the event each year. “They have so much fun decorating the cupcakes for themselves and their dad.”

Chip Wood and his daughters, Hollie, 14, Emme, 12, and Hanley, 8, have made the Father-Daughter Ball a family tradition attending the event every year it has been held.

“The whole evening is a fairytale experience especially since the girls get to wear formal dresses,” chuck-led Wood. “It is truly a rare oppor-tunity for daddy to spend time with daughters without mom.”

In past years, a big hit for the Wood daughters has been getting a chance to see their favorite prin-cess.

“The make-up and cupcake sta-tion is great, but my girls really love the princesses,” said Wood.

Over 700 attended last year’s ball and Weeden hopes the number will grow this year.

“We have really tried to make this event affordable for anyone to at-tend,” said Weeden.

The fi rst father-daughter couple ticket is $35, with each additional daughter costing only $10 each.

One big change this year will be the addition of a on-site printer in to provide father-daughter photos the night of the event.

“In the past we have had some problems with getting photos to people after the event, so this year we’re happy to have a professional photographer with professional printer equipment on-site,” stated Weeden. “Dads will be able to col-lect the photo before they leave the event.”

The Ball Memories photos are 5x7 in size and are $15 each at signup.

A special “One Enchanted Eve-ning” themed t-shirt will be avail-able for purchase for $15 each dur-ing signup as well.

“We’re also excited about the ad-dition of stretch Hummer and Ex-

cursion limo rides,” added Weeden.Cost of a ride is $20 per couple.Weeden stressed the event signup

is closer then some people realize, “paper applications must be in by Jan. 8 and online apps by Jan. 9.”

Kiwanis is a non-profi t organiza-tion of volunteers who strive to help children learn, experience, dream, grow and succeed by all means pos-sible. The local Kiwanis club holds several different fundraisers each year. Funds raised locally ben-efi t the Alcorn County EXCEL by Five, The Lighthouse Foundation of Corinth, Boys and Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi and Alcorn County 4-H.

Applications can be printed or tickets can be purchased via Paypal on the Corinth Kiwanis website at corinthkiwanis.org

Applications can be picked up at Weeden Law Firm at 501 Cruise Street. Applications must be post-marked by Jan. 8 or received in per-son with total payment by Jan. 9 by 5 p.m. Applications and payments will be processed online through Jan. 9. There will be no walk-ups allowed the night of the event.

Individual and corporate spon-sorship packages are available. Packages start at $200 and includes a special reserved table for eight by the dance fl oor and a special happy bag for each girl.

A pair of grants will al-low Prentiss County to make much-needed im-provements to a key ac-cess road for local indus-tries.

The Board of Supervi-sors will soon accept bids for repairs and overlay work on Parker Drive in-cluding the overlay from the railroad right of way east to Highway 4.

The project is being funded through grants from the Tombigbee River Valley Water Man-agement District and the

Appalachian Regional Commission.

A portion of the funds from the TRVWMD will also be used for a similar project improving the ac-cess road to the industrial park in Baldwyn.

The Baldwyn proj-ect will involve patching damage to the existing road.

“On behalf of the Pren-tiss County Board of Su-pervisors, I want to thank the funding agencies for showing their support of Prentiss County through these two much needed projects. These two proj-ects would not be possible

without Mike Armour of the Appalachian Region-al Commission and the Tombigbee River Valley Water Management Dis-trict, both of these agen-cies have a long history of supporting our county, and we thank them for their continued support. Northeast Mississippi Planning and Develop-ment and Cook Coggin Engineers were also in-strumental in securing the funds from these agencies and their hard work should be credited as well,” said Board of Su-pervisors President Mike Kesler.

Prentiss County De-velopment Association Executive Director Leon Hays said the work on Parker Drive will directly benefi t local industries and industrial develop-ment. He said industries in the area had sought the improvements and sever-al wrote letters on behalf of the county to support the awarding of the grant funds.

Hays said the repairs will make the access to the industrial park more attractive, functional and safer for those using the area and those consider-ing locating in the county.

JACKSON — An adult entertainer faces trial in January for what au-thorities say was her role in arranging unlicensed buttocks injections that killed a Georgia woman in 2012.

Authorities said model and adult entertainer Na-tasha Stewart, who uses the name Pebbelz Da Model, allegedly received $200 from 37-year-old Karima Gordon, of At-lanta, for a referral to the suspected injector.

Stewart, 39, who au-thorities said falsely pre-sented the person per-forming the procedure as a licensed medical professional, is charged with depraved-heart murder, a legal term for an action that dem-onstrates a “callous dis-regard for human life” and results in death, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. A deadline for Stewart, who has pleaded not guilty, to reach a plea deal is Jan. 10. Her trial is sched-uled to begin Jan. 27 in Hinds County Circuit Court. She faces life in prison if convicted.

Tracey Lynn Garner, a fl oral and interior de-signer, is charged with giving the injections and is scheduled for trial in March. Authori-ties initially identifi ed Garner as a man, Mor-ris Garner, but her at-torney said Garner, who was born male, had sex reassignment surgery. Garner is charged in Gordon’s death with depraved-heart murder. Conviction is punish-able by life in prison. She also is charged in

the 2010 death of Mari-lyn Hale of Selma, Ala., who authorities say died from similar injections.

Authorities said Gor-don became ill just a few hours after Garner per-formed the $1,500 pro-cedure in March 2012. A friend of Gordon’s who drove to the Jack-son, Miss., home with her for the injections, called Garner and asked what to do and authori-ties said Garner recom-mended cough medi-cine. Gordon died days later at a Georgia hos-pital from blood clots in her lungs after being injected with a silicone.

Garner, who was ar-rested in September 2012 and pleaded not guilty, is free on bond. Stewart, who was arrest-ed Jan. 3, 2013, in Mem-phis, Tenn., is jailed in Hinds County.

A gag order in the case prevents their lawyers from commenting.

Black market pro-cedures are a problem across the country as people seek out cheaper alternatives to plastic surgery. And a startling number of women are willing to risk their lives for illicit procedures to make their buttocks big-ger, whether they hope to fi ll out a bikini or a pair of jeans or believe a bigger bottom will bring them work as music video models or adult entertainers.

Though there is little data on the procedures or injuries they cause, doctors and authorities say they are seeing them more often.

Online forums used to set up the illegal pro-cedures have attracted thousands of responses.

BELIEVE THE CREATOR OR BELIEVE THE CREATURE

"Bashing" is defi ned as an "informal violent physical assault". Should a Christian, then, be involved in "gay bashing"? Absolutely not! But neither should we ignore the plain teaching of God on this or any other subject. He is the Creator, we are His creatures. God, as Creator, is no respecter of persons. (I Peter 1:17;Romans 2:11) He does not judge any of us in matters beyond our power of choice-like being born male or female, black or white, Jew or Gentile, rich or poor (Galatians 3:28). He does judge us in our choices; And every sin in the passage recently quoted by Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson is a sin in which we have the power of choice-to be involved in it, or to refuse to be involved in it. The passage reads this way in the NKJV: "Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolators, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God" (I Corinthians 6:9b-10). The writer goes on to say that some of the ancient Corinthians had been involved in such sins, but changed, "And such were some of you. But you were washed ... sanctifi ed ... justifi ed in the name of the Lord Jesus .... " (v.11) However, the very moment Robertson, or any other person who believes the Bible is the Word of God, quotes such a passage, he is labeled an "ignorant, radical, unloving bigot" by the major news outlets. Please remember these conglomerates are run mostly by creatures who believe in a "godless form of humanism". They may be in the majority today, but truth is not determined by counting heads-it is determined by the Creator Himself. Believe the Creator or believe the creatures-it is our choice. At the risk of sounding unloving, I would like to ask Bill O'Reilly if he believes the Creator knew what He was doing when He "gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which is due." (Romans 1:26,27)

Today in

history

Today is Friday, Jan. 3, the third day of 2014. There are 362 days left in the year.

 Today’s Highlightin History:

On Jan. 3, 1959, Alaska became the 49th state as President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a proc-lamation.

 On this date:

In 1521, Martin Luther was excommunicated from the Roman Catholic Church by Pope Leo X.

In 1777, Gen. George Washington’s army routed the British in the Battle of Princeton, N.J.

In 1861, more than two weeks before Geor-gia seceded from the Union, the state militia seized Fort Pulaski at the order of Gov. Joseph E. Brown. The Delaware House and Senate voted to oppose secession from the Union.

In 1911, the first post-al savings banks were opened by the U.S. Post Office. (The banks were abolished in 1966.)

In 1938, the March of Dimes campaign to fight polio was established by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who himself had been afflicted with the crippling disease.

In 1949, in a pair of rulings, the U.S. Su-preme Court said that states had the right to ban closed shops.

In 1958, the first six members of the newly formed U.S. Commis-sion on Civil Rights held their first meeting at the White House.

In 1967, Jack Ruby, the man who shot and killed accused presidential as-sassin Lee Harvey Oswald, died in a Dallas hospital.

In 1977, Apple Com-puter was incorporated in Cupertino, Calif., by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Mike Makkula Jr.

In 1980, conservation-ist Joy Adamson, author of “Born Free,” was killed in northern Kenya by a former employee.

In 1990, ousted Pana-manian leader Manuel Noriega surrendered to U.S. forces, 10 days after taking refuge in the Vati-can’s diplomatic mission.

 Ten years ago: A Boe-

ing 737 owned by Egyp-tian charter tour operator Flash Airlines crashed into the Red Sea, killing all 148 people aboard, most of them French tourists.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. — There are four wounded, ill and injured warriors living in the Voris household. One of them is human; the other three are cats.

Aaron Voris treats the animals like soulmates. A former infan-try soldier, he served with the “Red Currahees” of 1st Battal-ion, 506th Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division.

As a result of a particularly rough deployment in Afghani-stan, he suffers from back and leg injuries, but even more from traumatic brain injury and severe post-traumatic stress disorder.

He’s out of the Army now and working toward becoming a vet-erinary technician.

Together with his wife, Steph-anie, and stepdaughter, Ally, he is getting some practice in as the caretaker of three formerly homeless cats — each damaged in its own way.

Aaron said that, like him, they carry the scars and hurts of hard experience.

Lucy, an undersized and sick-ly cat, has a type of herpes af-fecting the lungs. It is a perma-nent condition and expensive to treat, but Lucy is family, and the expense is borne.

China, nicknamed “Tripod,” has three legs, which didn’t get in the way of Ally falling in love and adopting her.

Harrison, a 12 year-old gray cat, is the most wounded of all. Blind in one eye and half-blind in the other, with one ear de-stroyed by mites, he was also emotionally scarred by abuse and neglect.

He languished for a long time at Cats Are Us on the top of Boot Hill, unloved except by the vol-

unteers who cared for him. A frightened loner even among the other cats, he rarely moved from the spot he staked out for himself.

Volunteering at Cats Are Us as therapy for his own wounds, Aaron was struck by Harrison, who was skin and bones from not eating.

“We both looked at each oth-er, and immediately, I think he understood what I was going through, and I understood what he was going through,” Aaron said. “I think he has as much PTSD as I do.”

Harrison was good medicine for Aaron, and Aaron repaid the favor by giving Harrison a home.

Looking at the two of them to-gether on the couch in Aaron’s living room, it is hard to believe what each has endured while maintaining the ability to love without reserve.

Spc. Aaron Voris was a heavy machine-gunner with Able Company’s 3rd Platoon during the Afghanistan deployment of 2010-11, when the Screaming Eagles suffered their greatest losses in a dozen years of war.

He saw his share of the bad in Paktika Province — the “Juarez of Afghanistan,” as he called it. On a combat outpost that he termed “the Seventh Plane of Hell,” he and his platoon were mortared fi ve days a week, and insurgents made regular at-tempts to overrun the U.S. troops who held the ground.

Because of the danger and the likelihood of enemy contact, Aaron said he made a point of carrying an extra-heavy load — 1,500 rounds of 7.62 millimeter linked machine-gun ammuni-tion — on patrols. Thin and slightly built, the weight caused

him back problems.A fall off a sheer ledge while

wearing night-vision goggles during a night air assault added a painful leg injury.

The leg injury got progressive-ly worse, even after he returned home. Having lost over 60 per-cent functionality and most feel-ing in his right leg, he can no longer drive.

The PTSD was even worse, fed by two real-life nightmares.

In one, Aaron said, he watched a 7-year-old girl die on a stretch-er after tripping an improvised explosive device.

“I saw up close what an IED can do to a human body,” he said, staring off across the kitchen table as he recalled the incident. “And then I ended up getting caught out in the open. This was like within a week of watching a brother die and an-other almost die.

“I got caught out in the open in what ended up being a two-hour fi refi ght. We were so black (short) on ammo that I ended up running around linking mis-fi res together, putting together a pretty good-sized belt, and I was about to hand it to somebody when my squad leader looked at me and said, ‘Voris, I want you to take that belt and get a ma-chine-gun ready and prepare for your last stand.’

“If the Black Hawks (helicop-ters) hadn’t initiated an air strike, we wouldn’t have made it.”

When Aaron made it home, the traumatic brain injury — a result of two too-close IED blasts and the backblast from an AT-4 rocket launcher — became noticeable, fi rst to Stephanie as Aaron forgot things quickly, completely and repeatedly.

Stephanie said the couple

didn’t put a name to the prob-lem, nor did they understand what was happening until they heard Jodi McCullah of SAFE (Soldiers and Families Em-braced) giving a presentation at one of Stephanie’s Rotary Club meetings. SAFE is a nonprofi t, free counseling service for vet-erans, active duty service mem-bers and families, specializing in treating PTSD and other unseen wounds of war.

“Aaron doesn’t normally come to the meetings,” Stephanie said, “but he did that day. She (McCullah) spoke and Aaron went up to her and said, ‘I lost my job at Bridgestone-Metalfa because of blackouts. I think I fi t everything you explained,’ and she said, ‘Follow me.’ That was May of 2012.”

Counseling was an important step on the road to healing. Since then, additional understanding of Aaron’s condition came about when the VA determined he had moderate to severe damage to the left side of his brain as the result of head trauma.

“He does pretty well maintain-ing, considering everything,” Stephanie said.

As his healing progressed, Aar-on looked for constructive ways to spend his time and took a posi-tion as a volunteer with the Austin Peay State University ROTC de-partment. However, the position went away during the govern-ment shutdown in October.

“Going over there to Cats Are Us while dealing with my own PTSD and seeing the need of these animals that had been abused, neglected and aban-doned, and they’re reaching out to you — literally reaching out to you, wanting attention despite all that they’ve been through.”

JACKSON — A new federal report says Mis-sissippi offi cials accepted unsupported population growth estimates in de-veloping a plan to use $653 million in federal Hurricane Katrina re-covery money for water and wastewater facilities, including some that may not be needed.

The Department of Housing and Urban De-velopment’s Offi ce of Inspector General also questioned the appraisal documentation for $2.1 million used to buy land for the projects.

In June 2012, The As-sociated Press reported on concerns raised by residents and offi cials regarding the popula-tion estimates and the use of eminent domain to acquire private land for projects that may not

be needed for years, if ever. AP found that some multimillion-dollar sew-age plants in coastal Har-rison County were sitting idle or underused, but offi cials who defended the projects insisted they were designed for long-term growth.

The report said a fi rm hired in 2006 to help draft the plans hired a subcontractor to help with population esti-mates. The subcontrac-tor initially estimated growth of 25 percent, but increased it — to 64 per-cent — less than a month later at the request of the contractor, the report said.

The state “allowed in-creases to the popula-tion growth levels that were signifi cantly higher than population esti-mates supported by oth-er sources,” the report

said. The Mississippi legislative Performance Evaluation and Expendi-ture Committee had also questioned the growth estimates.

The Offi ce of the In-spector General said the state didn’t ensure that the capacity of the water and wastewater facilities addressed the needs cre-ated by Katrina or sup-ported economic devel-opment.

“As a result, disaster funding of more than $653 million was ap-proved to construct 67 facilities that may in-clude some plants, the capacity of which was either too small or exces-sive, and others plants that may not have been needed,” the report said.

Among other things, the report recommends that Mississippi put pro-cedures in place so that

future projects are based on “objective and rel-evant population data.”

The Mississippi Devel-opment Authority, the state’s economic agency, was responsible for ad-ministering the HUD funds, known as Com-munity Development Block Grant money.

The Mississippi De-partment of Environ-mental Quality was re-sponsible for developing Mississippi’s Gulf Region Water and Wastewater Plan after the August 2005 storm.

A development author-ity spokesman referred questions about the in-spector-general’s report to the environmental quality department.

The department’s ex-ecutive director, Trudy Fisher, issued a state-ment Thursday saying she and other offi cials in

her department “take our responsibility to properly utilize federal funds very seriously, and strongly disagree with the audit fi ndings and recommen-dations with regard to both the appraisal issue and the population pro-jections.”

The state also said the report overlooked the goal of building water and wastewater infra-structure in areas that aren’t as vulnerable to hurricanes to encour-age people to move there instead of returning to hard-hit places.

The environmental department hired the Mississippi Engineering Group in 2006 to help develop the plan. Missis-sippi Engineering Group hired Angelou Econom-ics to assist in preparing the projections, the fed-eral report said.

It was the year that Miley Cyrus French-kissed a sledge-hammer in the music video for her song “Wrecking Ball,” and cavorted naked on said wrecking ball. The former Dis-ney star popularized the act of twerking in a performance at the MTV Video Music Awards that was so luridly infantile, it wasn’t outrageous so much as pathetic. Yet it worked. It gained her at least another

15 minutes of fame and probably more, to have people pay attention to other insipid things she might do, usually half-clothed. Cyrus made us yearn for the good taste and restraint of the era of Lady Gaga, not to men-tion the golden age of classic Britney Spears.

It was the year the president of the United States posed in a selfi e with other foreign leaders at a memorial service for Nelson Mandela. He evidently had a grand time, but made us nostalgic for the period before our presidents posed in selfi es with other heads of state, i.e., the long stretch of American his-tory ending on Dec. 9, 2013.

It was the year Anthony Weiner admitted in the midst of his New York City mayoral campaign that he had continued to sext after resigning from Congress for sexting. Under the delightfully absurd alias “Carlos Danger,” he had sent pictures of his private parts to a 22-year-old woman, whose notoriety in-stantly launched her career in adult fi lm and as a spokesmodel for an adultery-facilitating website. Weiner made us fondly recall the self-effacing modesty of past New York City politicians like Ed Koch and Rudy Giuliani.

It was the year that Toronto Mayor Rob Ford denied smoking crack, before admit-ting smoking crack -- probably “in one of my drunken stupors.” He blamed report-ers for not asking “the correct questions” when he made his initial lawyerly denial, in which he had only said, “I do not use crack cocaine, nor am I an addict of crack cocaine.” He denounced a successful effort by the City Council to strip him of most of his powers as a “coup d’etat.” While running around like a bull high on amphetamines during the rau-cous council debate, he knocked a woman down. The good mayor made us miss the de-corum and straightforwardness of former Il-linois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

It was the year Dennis Rodman nominated himself as goodwill ambassador to North Ko-rea, touchingly pronouncing himself Kim Jong Un’s “friend for life.” He excused the dictator’s brutal rule by explaining that the Supreme Leader is only 28 years old. “The Worm,” as the former basketball player is known, made Jane Fonda’s infamous visit to North Vietnam in 1972 seem an effective, well- calibrated act of international diplomacy in comparison.

It was the year Lance Armstrong confessed to cheating in every single one of his Tour de France victories, after attempting for years to destroy anyone who had blown the whistle on his doping. He did the obligatory inter-view with Oprah as a fi rst step to redemption. Armstrong made us miss the sportsmanship of Rosie Ruiz, who won the Boston Marathon years ago in record time by neglecting to run the entire course.

It was the year that New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez alleged a vast conspiracy en-compassing most of Major League Baseball to bust him for using performance-enhanc-ing drugs -- again. The third baseman leads the league in misplaced sense of victimhood. Rodriguez made us long for the guilelessness of Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.

It was the year something truly outland-ish happened on “The Real Housewives of Somewhere or Other.” It was the year “Mob Wives” got crazy. It was the year that “16 and Pregnant” descended into moral chaos. They all made us remember a time when “Jersey Shore” represented a more decorous, elevat-ed form of reality television.

So good riddance to a year of shameless-ness. It is sure never to be excelled -- except by 2014.

All considered,it was a year

without shame

Prayer for today

A verse to share

In 1793, the envoy Lord Macartney appeared before the Qianlong emperor in Beijing and asked for British trading rights in China. “Our ways have no resemblance to yours, and even were your envoy competent to acquire some rudiments of them, he could not transport them to your barbarous land,” the long-reigning (1736-96) em-peror replied in a letter to King George III.

“We possess all things,” he went on. “I set no value on strange objects and have no use for your country’s man-ufactures.”

The emperor had a point. China at that time, accord-ing to economic historian Angus Maddison, had about one-third of world popula-tion and accounted for about one-third of world economic production.

Today’s China, of course, has a different attitude to-ward trade. Since Deng Xiaoping’s market reforms started in 1978, it has had enormous growth based on manufacturing exports.

The Chinese ruling party and, apparently, the Chinese people see the economic growth of the last 35 years as a restoration of China’s rightful central place in the world. And note that that period is longer than the 27 years of Mao’s rule.

American supporters of engagement with China, in-

cluding the architect of the policy, Henry Kiss-inger, agree and have ex-pressed the hope that an increasingly prosperous China will move toward

democracy and peaceful co-existence.

Those hopes, as James Mann argued in his 2007 book “The China Fantasy,” have not been and seem un-likely to be realized.

Other China scholars such as Arthur Waldron and Gor-don Chang have predicted that China’s Communist party rulers will be swept from power.

That nearly happened, many say, in June 1989, when protesters gathered in Tiananmen Square, the uni-versally recognized center of the nation. But Deng sharply overruled those who urged propitiation and ordered the massacre of unknown num-bers.

Repression seems to have worked. The Tiananmen massacre came only 11 years after the beginning of Deng’s reforms. Since then, another 24 years have passed, with the regime still in power.

But perhaps not secure in that power. In 2013, lead-ing members of the Polit-

buro recommended that underlings read Alexis de Tocqueville’s “The Old Re-gime and the Revolution.”

It’s an intriguing choice. Tocqueville, refl ecting on the Revolution that killed his fellow aristocrats and family members, argued that the revolution came only when the old regime began reform and conditions improved.

And he argued that the Revolution was largely de-structive, increasing the centralization of the royalist regime. “The old order pro-vided the Revolution with many of its methods; all the Revolution added to these was a savagery peculiar to itself.”

The relevance to China seems obvious. Regime members, such as French aristocrats, no longer believe in their own ideology, but cling to power. The Chinese people have come to expect rapidly rising living stan-dards, and may abandon the regime if it doesn’t produce.

But rising living standards may also undermine the re-gime. Regime elites must be careful, like Deng in 1989, or the rulers will lose every-thing and chaos will be un-leashed on China.

China’s rulers have also been circulating a six-part TV documentary blaming the collapse of the Soviet Union on Mikhail Gorbach-ev’s reforms and softness.

Message: avoid democracy or political freedom.

Another part of that cam-paign was the prosecution of Chongqing party leader Bo Xilai and his wife for cor-ruption and murder. China’s party leaders and crony cap-italists have become osten-tatiously and unpopularly rich. The prosecution was a warning to lie low.

If China’s leaders seem determined to block democ-racy internally, they have also been moving to rally nationalist feeling by aggres-sive moves against China’s neighbors.

The latest, last month, was a declaration of an Air Defense Identifi cation Zone covering islands claimed by China but held by Japan and South Korea.

China’s assertive stance has got its neighbors seek-ing closer ties and protec-tion from the United States. Armed clashes -- even war -- seem possible.

China continues to grow. But democracy and peaceful coexistence may be farther away than ever.

Democracy, peace pushed farther away

Front-page editorials, disguised as news stories, have become such familiar features of the New York Times that it should have been no surprise to discover in the December 28th issue a front-page story about a professor of fi nance at the University of Houston who has been a paid consultant to fi nancial enterprises.

Since professors of all sorts have been paid con-sultants to organizations of all sorts, it is questionable why this was a story at all, much less one that covered an entire inside page, in addition to a central front-page opening, under the headline “Academics Who Defend Wall St. Reap Re-ward.”

Do academics who attack Wall Street, as consultants to government agencies or other organizations, not get paid?

Like the corrupt French offi cial in the movie classic “Casablanca,” the New York Times is “shocked, shocked” to discover that consultants get paid defending the kinds of people that the New York Times attacks.

Where has the New York

Times been all these years, as government a g e n c i e s of all sorts spend the t a x p a y e r s ’ money not only to hire consultants but also to

hand out research grants to professors, institutions and programs that promote the kinds of policies that serve the institutional interests of these agencies?

Back when I was an econ-omist at the U.S. Depart-ment of Labor, many years ago, offi cials there spoke in reverential tones about Pro-fessor Richard A. Lester, an economist at Princeton University who sometimes came down to Washington to advise the Department.

Although many other economists argued that minimum wage laws in-creased unemployment, especially among young unskilled workers, Profes-sor Lester had questioned whether minimum wages had the bad effects that other economists said they

had.His view was very con-

genial to the institutional interests of the Department of Labor, a substantial part of whose appropriations and employment was based on its administration of the minimum wage law.

In fairness to Professor Lester, there is no reason whatever to think that his views were based on the money he got from the gov-ernment.

The real corruption comes from arming govern-ment agencies with the tax-payers’ money to hire con-sultants and give research grants to academics and others whose views serve the interests of those partic-ular government agencies, as distinguished from serv-ing the interests of the pub-lic from whom these taxes are extracted.

Does anyone seriously be-lieve that those government agencies that stand to see their powers and money in-creased if the “global warm-ing” agenda prevails will be handing out research grants impartially to both those climate scientists who agree with that agenda and those

who disagree?The central target of the

New York Times hit piece was Professor Craig Pirrong, whom it says “had fi nancial ties to both sides” of a dis-pute over fi nancial specu-lation. Despite this, the re-peated insinuation was that he has a confl ict of interest.

If both sides are willing to pay him for consulting, where is the confl ict? No matter what side he takes on a particular issue, some-body is going to pay him -- as people who work in any capacity usually expect to get paid, even people who write hit pieces for the New York Times.

What is really corrupting is camoufl aging an editorial as a “news” story -- and act-ing as if people who repre-sent one side of a controver-sial issue are somehow less worthy than people who represent the opposite side that happens to be favored by the New York Times.

Fallen soldier returns for burial

QUITMAN — Funeral service for Spc. Terry K.D. Gordon will be held Saturday at Quitman High School auditorium.

The service is at 11 a.m.

The Defense Depart-ments says the 22-year-old Gordon and five other soldiers died Dec. 17 when their Black Hawk UH-60 went down in Af-ghanistan’s Zabul region.

Gordon’s body arrived Wednesday at Key Field in Meridian.

Gordon was serving with the 1st Squadron, 6th Calvary Regiment, 1st Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Infantry Divi-sion from Fort Riley, Kan.

 Drug-testing lawsuit settled

AMORY — The Amory school system and par-ents of a 13-year-old have settled a lawsuit over a student drug test-ing.

Last June, the parents of a female student sued the school, arguing she was wrongly identified as positive for using crystal methamphetamine.

A federal judge granted a temporary restrain-ing order on the girl’s suspension from athlet-ics and ordered her re-tested.

Attorneys for the par-ents and their daughter and the school district tell the Northeast Missis-sippi Daily Journal that both sides are pleased with the settlement. Terms of the settlement reached last month are confidential.

In the lawsuit, the par-ents argued their daugh-ter was denied her rights to due process and se-curity against unreason-able searches when she was selected for testing under the school’s policy of random checks for extracurricular activity participants.

 Flag causes flap in Southern California

SANTA ANA, Calif. — Some Southern Califor-nia attorneys want the Mississippi state flag, the last in the nation to include a Confederate symbol, removed from a display at Santa Ana’s civic center.

The Los Angeles Times reports Thursday that the Orange County Bar Association said the em-blem symbolizes hatred and racism. The associa-tion recently passed a resolution seeking the flag’s removal from a display of flags from all 50 states at the civic center.

Mississippi’s flag is the last in the nation to include the star-studded crossed bars of the Confederate battle flag. Georgia removed it about a decade ago.

The association’s ef-forts may be moot. City and county officials have been discussing ideas for renovating the plaza where the flags are, in-cluding the possibility of getting rid of the display.

 6-year-old killedin Lincoln County

BROOKHAVEN — Lin-coln County Sheriff Steve Rushing say a 6-year-old girl has been killed in what investigators be-lieve was an accidental shooting.

Rushing tells WLBT TV the girl’s 13-year-old brother was playing with his pellet gun inside the family home Wednesday morning when it went off.

The girl was taken to Southwest Regional Medical Center in Mc-Comb, where she died around 11 a.m.

 Retired judge Smith dies at 73

SUMMIT — Mike Smith of Summit, a retired cir-cuit judge in south Mis-sissippi, has died after a long illness. He was 73.

The Administrative Of-fice of Courts says Smith died Wednesday at Franklin County Hospital in Meadville.

Services are 11 a.m. Friday at Hartman-Sharkey Funeral Home in McComb, with burial in Union Church cemetery in Jefferson County.

Smith earned his law degree from Jackson School of Law, now called Mississippi Col-lege School of Law.

He was Pike County at-torney before being elect-ed circuit judge in Lin-coln, Pike and Walthall counties in November 1994. He took office in January 1995 and retired in June 2006. He contin-ued hearing cases as a senior status judge.

Football player found dead on highway

TROY, Ala. — Troy foot-ball player Jadarius Gar-ner was found dead on a Mississippi highway.

Mississippi Highway Patrol spokesman An-thony Dunn said that the 20-year-old Garner was found lying on U.S. High-way 61 in Bolivar County early Thursday morning after two cars had run over him.

The highway patrol is investigating the cause of Garner’s death. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

State troopers, sher-iff’s deputies and rescue officials from Bolivar County arrived at 2:27 a.m. Thursday after re-sponding to what was be-lieved to be a two-vehicle accident about 3 miles south of Oreilly, Miss.

The drivers of the two cars were not injured.

Garner was from Clarksdale, Miss. The defensive end had 21 tackles and three sacks as a sophomore for the Trojans after transferring from Jones County Com-munity College.

 2 killed, 3 injuredin Jones Co. wreck

LAUREL — Two people were killed and three seriously injured in a two-vehicle accident in the Calhoun community of Jones County west of Laurel.

Authorities say a pickup and a car collided at the intersection of Service Road and Sprin-ghill Road around 1 p.m. Wednesday.

Two women were pro-nounced dead at the scene by Jones County Coroner Nancy Barnett. One of the deceased was ejected from the ve-hicle and the other died inside the vehicle.

Deputies say a 3-year-old toddler and 26-year-old woman, both critically injured, were taken to a hospital, along with a 46-year-old woman, who was seriously injured.

Enrollment issuesbeset new law

SACRAMENTO, Ca-lif. — The new year brought relief for Ameri-cans who previously had no health insur-ance or were stuck in poor plans, but it also led to confusion after the troubled rollout of the federal health care reforms sent a crush of late applications to overloaded government agencies.

That created stacks of yet-to-be-processed paperwork and thou-sands — if not millions — of people unsure about whether they have insurance.

Mike Estes of Bea-verton, Ore., finally received his insurance card on Dec. 27 after applying in early No-vember. Still, the fam-ily was thrilled to have insurance through the Oregon Health Plan, Or-egon’s version of Medic-aid, because their previ-ous $380-a-month pre-mium “literally crushed our family’s finances,” Estes said.

Obama administration officials estimate that 2.1 million consumers have enrolled so far through the federal and state-run health insur-ance exchanges that are a central feature of the federal law. But even before coverage began, health insurance companies complained they were receiving thousands of faulty applications from the government, and some people who thought they had enrolled for coverage have not re-ceived confirmation.

Storm interferes with schools, flights

BOSTON— A storm expected to bring more than a foot of snow, stiff winds and punish-ing cold pushed into the Northeast on Thursday, extending Christmas break for some stu-dents while posing the first test for New York’s new mayor and perhaps the last challenge for Boston’s outgoing one.

Some schools in New England and New York closed well ahead of the snow, while cities mobilized plows and salt spreaders, and state offices sent work-ers home early. Some major highways were ordered shut down over-night. U.S. airlines can-celed more than 2,300 flights nationwide on Thursday in advance of the storm.

The heavy weather began rolling in just

a day after New York Mayor Bill de Blasio was sworn in to lead the na-tion’s largest city and a few days before Boston Mayor Thomas Menino ends 20 years in office.

Menino announced a parking ban and said schools would be closed Friday in Boston, where up to 14 inches of snow was expected. Boston’s airport said it would not handle any flights after 8:30 p.m. Thursday.

Law license granted to illegal immigrant

SAN FRANCISCO — The California Supreme Court granted a law license Thursday to a man who has been liv-ing in the U.S. illegally for two decades, a rul-ing that advocates hope will open the door to immigrants seeking to enter other professions such as medicine, nurs-ing and accounting.

The unanimous deci-sion means Sergio Gar-cia, who attended law school and passed the state bar exam while working in a grocery store and on farms, can begin practicing law im-mediately.

It’s the latest in a string of legal and leg-islative victories for people who are in the country without permis-sion. Other successes include the creation of a path to citizenship for many young people and the granting of drivers li-censes in some states.

“This is a bright new day in California history and bodes well for the future,” the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles said in a statement.

The court sided with state officials in the case, which pitted them against the White House over a 1996 fed-eral law that bars peo-ple who are in the U.S. illegally from receiving professional licenses from government agen-cies or with the use of public money, unless state lawmakers vote otherwise.

Newspapers urgeSnowden clemency

The New York Times and Guardian newspa-pers have called for clemency for Edward Snowden, saying that the espionage worker-turned-privacy advocate should be praised rath-er than punished for his disclosures.

The papers — both of which have played a role in publishing Snowden’s intelligence trove — suggested late Wednesday that the former National Secu-

rity Agency contractor’s revelations about the United States’ world-spanning espionage program were of such public importance that they outweighed any possible wrongdoing.

“Considering the enormous value of the information he has re-vealed, and the abuses he has exposed, Mr. Snowden deserves better than a life of permanent exile, fear and flight,” the Times said, calling either for a plea bargain, some form of clemency, or a “substantially reduced punishment.”

The Guardian said it hoped “calm heads within the present (U.S.) administration are working on a strategy to allow Mr. Snowden to return to the U.S. with dignity, and the president to use his ex-ecutive powers to treat him humanely and in a manner that would be a shining example about the value of whistle-blowers and of free speech itself.”

Feds warn oil may be more flammable

BILLINGS, Mont. — Following a string of ex-plosive accidents, federal officials said Thursday that crude oil being shipped by rail from the Northern Plains across the U.S. and Canada may be more flammable than traditional forms of oil.

A safety alert issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation warns the public, emergency responders and ship-pers about the potential high volatility of crude from the Bakken oil patch. The sprawling oil shale reserve is fueling the surging industry in eastern Montana and western North Dakota, which is now the na-tion’s second-largest oil producer behind Texas.

The warning declares that the Bakken’s light, sweet crude oil may be different from tra-ditional heavy crudes because it is prone to ignite at a lower tem-perature. Experts say lighter crudes, which contain more natural gas, have a much lower “flash point” — the temperature at which vapors given off by the oil can ignite.

The government’s warning comes after a huge explosion on Monday caused by a crude train derailment near Casselton, N.D. No one was hurt, but wor-ries about toxic fumes prompted the evacuation of hundreds of residents from the small eastern North Dakota town.

Snapchat quiet after hacking

NEW YORK — Snap-chat, the disappearing-message service popular with young people, has been quiet following a security breach that allowed hackers to col-lect the usernames and phone numbers of some 4.6 million of its users.

Company spokeswom-an Mary Ritti said Thurs-day that the company is assessing the situation, but did not have further comment.

The breach occurred after security experts warned the company at least twice about a vul-nerability in its system. Snapchat’s seemingly detached response is causing some security specialists to wonder whether the young com-pany can handle the spotlight that it’s been thrust into over the last year as its service has become enormously popular.

In response to a warn-ing by Gibson Secu-rity Dec. 25 —which fol-lowed an earlier alert in August— Snapchat said in a blog post last Friday that it had implemented “various safeguards” over the past year that would make it more dif-ficult to steal large sets of phone numbers. Snap-chat hasn’t detailed the changes it made.

Stocks start 2014on a sour note

NEW YORK — Inves-tors may already feel a little nostalgic for 2013.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index began the New Year with its worst performance in three weeks as energy and technology companies

pulled down the stock market.

Stocks started the year at lofty heights after a combination of rising company earnings and economic stimulus from the Federal Reserve pushed major indexes to record levels in 2013. The S&P 500 surged almost 30 percent, its best year since 1997, and the Dow Jones in-dustrial average climbed 26.5 percent, the most since 1995.

“The market was grossly overbought and needed to pull back,” said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital. “But fundamentally ev-erything is looking pretty good.”

 Fire not terrorism

SAN FRANCISCO — The FBI says a fire at the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco was not an act of terrorism. FBI Special Agent David Johnson said Thursday the agency is investigating the blaze as a criminal matter as opposed to a threat to national security. Johnson did not pro-vide any specifics about a possible motive or sus-pects. Authorities say no one was hurt in the fire that charred the building’s doorway, damaged the lobby and burned up-ward toward the roof on Wednesday. Consulate spokesman Wang Chuan says work-ers inside saw surveil-lance camera footage showing a person com-ing out of a van parked outside the building with two buckets of gasoline, pouring it on the front of the building and setting it on fire.

Original Cheeriosto go GMO-free

NEW YORK — General Mills says some Cheeri-os made without geneti-cally modified ingredi-ents will start appearing on shelves soon. The Minneapolis-based company said Thursday that it has been manu-facturing its original-flavor Cheerios without GMOs for the past sev-eral weeks in response to consumer demand. It did not specify exactly when those boxes would be on sale. Original Cheerios will now be labeled as “Not Made With Genetically Modified Ingredients,” although that it is not an official certification. The labels will also note that trace amounts of GMO ingredients could be present due to con-tamination during the manufacturing process, said Mike Siemienas, a company spokesman. The change does not apply to any other Cheer-ios flavors, such as Ap-ple Cinnamon Cheerios or Multi Grain Cheerios. “We were able to do this with original Cheer-ios because the main ingredients are oats,” said Siemienas, noting that there are no geneti-cally modified oats. The company is primarily switching the cornstarch and sugar to make the original Cheerios free of GMOs, he said. Other varieties of Cheerios are made with ingredients such as corn, making it harder for the company to make them free of GMOs, Siemienas said. There has been little sci-entific evidence to prove that foods grown from engineered ingredients are less safe than their con-ventional counterparts.

Moss Point changes Main Street median

MOSS POINT — The city of Moss Point is redesigning the median along Main Street.

Crews have removed shrubbery and Mayor Billy Broomfield says three new turn lanes are next.

“We are not destroy-ing them (the shrubs). We’re preserving them to be used in other places. Some will be re-used in the median, but most of the shrubs will be new, low growth, low maintenance,” Broom-field told The Missis-sippi Press.

Broomfield said the city has worked with Neil-Schaeffer Engi-neering to place turn lanes across from Bea-con Car Wash, Sonic Drive In, and Hancock Bank. Broomfield said the changes should help boost business and make residents happy.

“The car wash has lost 37 percent of its revenue because of the barriers there,” Broomfield said. “Sonic went from serving 800 to 900 people a day to now serving about 300, because people have to go down and make a U-turn. Right now, at Han-cock Bank, you can’t get to the drive-thru.”

Broomfield said that time is another concern for being able to react to emergencies.

“This has always been used for emer-gency responders from North to South and vice versa. But when both lanes are filled ... they have to wait,” said Broomfield. “Minutes save lives, and that is another major con-cern.”

The median and landscaping were added to the area in 2011 as a part of a redevelopment project funded through the Mississippi Develop-ment Authority.

According to Neil-Schaeffer Engineering, the cost of the changes will total $121,400. Broomfield said the city will pay for the project through grants and he hopes to open bids in the coming months.

“It’s hard to develop this area with busi-ness when people who need to support those businesses can’t get to them,” he said. “The citizens as a whole have been excit-ed, because it’s been a problem for them. I’ll be much happier when I can see the ac-tion and see the work started.” 

Man indicted for sexual battery

HATTIESBURG — A Hattiesburg man has been indicted on one count of sexual battery in connection with an April assault.

The Hattiesburg Ameri-can reports a Forrest County grand jury hand-ed down the indictment Nov. 14. It was served to suspect 26-year-old Travoris Megale Hunter on Dec. 6.

Hunter is accused of engaging in sexual in-tercourse with a victim between the ages of 14 and 16 on April 28.

He was arrested the same day and initially charged with statutory rape, but the grand jury changed the charge to sexual battery.

He was released from the Forrest County Jail on April 28 on a $15,000 bond.

No record of arraign-ment or setting of a trial date exists in Hunter’s file in Forrest County Cir-cuit Court.

 Fire gear soughtin Mound Bayou

MOUND BAYOU— Mound Bayou Fire Chief Edgar Glover says the town currently has around 18 to 22 volunteer fire-fighters but only half of them have the proper equipment they need.

“We are reaching out to our local municipali-ties to aid in funding the fire department. We are looking into several grants. We have more volunteers now than we have had in the past. We want to get them outfit-ted and trained — all of this requires money,” Glover told The Bolivar Commercial.

Glover said the aver-age firefighter wears at least $4,000 worth of equipment.

He said that the department has been receiving equipment donations from local fire departments and funds from municipalities but they don’t have enough money to have a properly functioning fire team.

“The volunteers don’t get paid for what they do but I feel that they should at least be well equipped. They respond quickly whenever there is a fire but most of them are not able to help be-cause we have a limited amount of equipment,” said Glover.

The State Fire Rebate Insurance Program pays back fire insurance pre-miums each year to local governments statewide for things such as train-ing, equipment and up-keep on things such as fire hydrants.

Glover said it is im-portant for a fire depart-ment to have working hy-drants, which are upright water pipes to which a fire hose is attached.

Being able to quickly locate a working hydrant greatly increases fire-fighters’ response time.

Glover said that in the past, the Mound Bayou Fire Department faced deficits due to inoper-able fire hydrants and he tried to mark the inoper-able hydrants by using black spray paint.

Glover said that Mound Bayou is currently in the process of assessing fire hydrants to ensure that they are fully operable in the case of an emergency.

 County grantstax exemption

COLUMBUS — Lowndes County has given Aurora Flight Sci-ences a 10-year property tax exemption for its investment in the final expansion of its facility.

Without the exemption, the unmanned aircraft manufacturer would have paid $9 million to the county in taxes through the next decade. The amount equals what Aurora invested in a 30,000-square-foot addi-tion to its facility.

The Commercial Dis-patch reports that the exemption agreement ap-plies only to ad valorem and does not affect school taxes.

After spending two years at a temporary site at Mississippi State Uni-versity, Aurora opened a 22,000-square-foot plant near the Golden Tri-angle Regional Airport in 2007. A year later it built a 66,000-square-foot addition. The company received 10-year exemp-tion for each of those projects.

The final expansion opened last January.

Aurora employees about 250 people.

 Levee jogging trailtakes step forward

GREENVILLE — The Greenville City Council is expected to consider next week a proposal to apply for a state grant to locate a jogging trail atop the levee.

The Delta Democrat Times reports the Mis-sissippi Department of Transportation grant that would fund 80 per-cent of the estimated $1 million costs of the trail. The city’s match is $200,000.

The grant application is Feb. 7.

The council’s finance committee this week rec-ommended applying for the grant. The full coun-cil meets Tuesday.

The 1.7-mile trail would begin at the base of the levee at Ferry Road and extend north to just past the Greenville Yacht Club. An official design has not been drawn up, but a concept draft includes a 16-foot-wide paved surface, parking, lighting, benches and emergency phones.

Today

Softer earnings?

Wall Street expects that Lindsay’s latest earnings and revenue will be down from a year ago.

The irrigation equipment maker, due to report fiscal first-quarter financial results today, finished its last fiscal year on a high note, posting a 19 percent jump in earnings for the June-August quarter. The company also booked higher expenses, including compensation and acquisition costs.

Strong finish?

Holiday season deals and an ongoing shift from cars to small SUVs boosted U.S. auto sales in November.

Industry analysts anticipate the trend continued in Decem-ber, driving sales higher after a slow start. A J.D. Power and LMC Automotive forecast estimates auto makers will report today that sales grew to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 15.3 million last month, up from 15.2 million a year earlier.

Crude oil cache

The Energy Department reports its latest tally of U.S. crude oil stockpiles today.

The nation’s crude oil supplies have been falling in recent weeks, but are still 9.2 percent above the five-year average. A drop in the nation’s crude inventories typically increases the price of oil. But a stronger dollar has been keeping a cap on oil prices by making commodities priced in dollars more expensive for non-U.S. users. Source: FactSet

S&P 500 winners & losersAll 10 sectors of the Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose in 2013 to post a collective gain of 29.6 percent. It was the market’s best annual increase in 16 years. Including dividends, investors enjoyed a 31.9 percent return.

The dramatic climb was broad as more investors grew confident in the economy. The housing market strengthened, unemployment fell and fewer workers were scared of losing their jobs. That helped boost consumer confidence and encourage spending.

Consumer discretionary stocks rose the most. As a group they soared 41 percent. The 83 stocks that make up the sector were led by two of the market’s star performers: Netflix notched the biggest gain in the S&P 500 last year, 298 percent. Best Buy jumped 237 percent as its turnaround efforts continued.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian

Daily Corinthian • Friday, January 3, 2014 • 9A

ARIES (March 21-April 19). If you don’t know where to begin with someone, just think about what you really want and start as close to that as you can get. Honesty keeps you from wasting time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re excited about and maybe even obsessed with something that you know won’t last. This shouldn’t make you back off, though. Instead, commit more fully with all your heart and en-ergy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Sometimes when you’re alone you are not sure what to do with yourself. Today’s discovery is an endeavor or a game that is best enjoyed alone so you can go at your own pace.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Just as being upset leads to an overabundance of vexing nega-tive thoughts, being extremely happy infl uences your thinking in a more positive way than the situation may call for. But in the latter case, who cares?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may have your suspicions that people are not giving your words the at-tention they deserve. Are they re-ally listening, or are they thinking about something else? Put them to the test and fi nd out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your earth-sign qualities are strongly featured. It’s no fun be-ing grounded if you’d rather be fl ying. But if you want to grow, build or run fast, being grounded is essential.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You may think that what you have to give is not quite enough, but maybe you’re just giving it to the wrong person. To another per-son, your gift will be more than they dared to dream about hav-ing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You look forward to the worry-free moments you can share relaxing with a loved one, but that time won’t come until you’ve handled a big job. Ask for help to speed up the process.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Today shows you getting into some tricky business. What are you really being promised? The concrete answer is being obscured by delightful but vague feel-good statements.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Someone who has wronged you wants to make amends. Is it for you, or is it to ease the other person’s conscience? Don’t let this be an opening for future in-teraction if that’s not what you want.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You know that when you cherish yourself, others follow suit. This is all well and good in theory, but your many responsibilities some-times make it hard for you to fi nd the time! Don’t worry. The bal-ance you seek is not so far away.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Loved ones may not be at their best tonight, and you could get the brunt of it. Avoid inner tur-moil by wisely separating normal emotions from the needlessly exaggerated ones that come when you’re tired.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 27-year-old mom who has always been overweight. I have tried all sorts of diets and programs, and have lost a few pounds and then gained it all back and more.

My boss has offered to pay for me to have weight loss surgery. It is something I have always wanted, but could never afford. My boss told me she knows the struggle I have had and the frus-tration I have experienced.

My family is behind me and supports my decision to have it done. My concern is that once others in my offi ce learn it was paid for by the boss, I’ll be treat-ed differently. I’m concerned about possible catty comments. They are gossips, and I hate being the center of attention in situations like that. The truth is bound to come out, so how can I comment on the gift I’ve been given? -- SO GRATEFUL IN

TEXAS

DEAR SO GRATEFUL: You have a generous and empathetic boss who obviously cares about you. Unless one of you reveals that she paid for your surgery, “the truth” is NOT bound to come out. How your operation is paid for is nobody’s business.

DEAR ABBY: My father re-cently told me his girlfriend is

pregnant with twins. She is in her 40s and he is in his 50s. She already has two kids who are quite a handful. They both have l ow - pay i n g jobs and I don’t think they can han-

dle two more children.My father now is asking me

to move in with him to help out. Because of their fi nancial state and their ages, I’m afraid this is a huge risk. If I tell him what my concerns are, I am sure he’ll think I’m heartless and stop talking to me. I don’t know what to do. Dad might not even be around to see those kids gradu-ate from high school. What can I do? -- TROUBLED SON IN COLO-

RADO

DEAR TROUBLED SON: Un-less you’re willing to give up your freedom I don’t recommend do-ing what your father is propos-ing. He should not expect you to assume child care or fi nancial responsibility because his birth control method failed. That privi-lege rightfully belongs to him and

his girlfriend. Tell your father you sympathize with his dilemma, but the answer is no.

DEAR ABBY: I read your col-umn on the nights that I work, and I was wondering if you have had days when you just wanted to tell someone who has written to you to “suck it up and deal with it.”

I am generally a nice person and would help the most help-less cases as best I could, but I know that I have days when I have been snarky. I was won-dering how you deal with those days. -- FEELING SNARKY TO-

NIGHT IN VERMONT

DEAR FEELING SNARKY: I write my column from an offi ce away from my home. Because of that, it’s easier to leave dis-tractions (or “problems”) on the other side of the door when I en-ter. I’m here to help people, not to make anyone feel worse. If for some reason I felt I was unable to do that, I would either go for a long walk or postpone writing for another day.

The Associated PressMEMPHIS, Tenn. — Mis-

sissippi State’s dominant per-formance in the Liberty Bowl has the Bulldogs aiming to play for higher stakes in next year’s postseason.

The Bulldogs wrapped up a fourth consecutive win-ning season Tuesday with a 44-7 Liberty Bowl blowout of Rice that capped a three-game winning streak to end the year. All of Mississippi State’s losses this season came against teams currently in the Top 25: No. 13 Oklaho-ma State, No. 2 Auburn, No. 14 LSU, No. 8 South Carolina, No. 20 Texas A&M and No. 3 Alabama.

“Our expectations are al-ways that we want to win the SEC West and represent Mis-sissippi State and the whole state of Mississippi,” Missis-sippi State coach Dan Mul-len said. “That’s the one thing we can control. Beyond that, you don’t have much control over stuff. That’s always go-ing to be our goal. I think we embrace those expectations. I know our program does and our players do.”

Mississippi State had rea-son to feel confi dent about its future after delivering the most one-sided victory in the Liberty Bowl’s 55-year his-tory.

Dak Prescott threw three

touchdown passes and ran for two more scores to set a Liberty Bowl record by ac-counting for fi ve touchdowns. Prescott’s exceptional per-formance came less than two months after his mother, Peg-gy, died of cancer.

“It’s really just been about Mississippi State University and this football team com-forting me, being there for me and just helping me and making what I would say is the hardest thing in my life easier,” Prescott said.

Prescott was 17 of 28 for 283 yards passing and also ran for 78 yards on 14 carries. His performance delighted a partisan crowd of 57,846

and capped a triumphant late-season performance amid personal tragedy for the sophomore quarterback. Prescott came off the bench in the fourth quarter to lead Mississippi State to a 17-10 overtime victory over Ole Miss last month that earned the Bulldogs a bowl bid. .

Although Prescott and Ty-ler Russell had shared quar-terback duties throughout the regular season, Prescott had the job to himself in the Liberty Bowl while Russell recovered from surgery to repair a torn labrum in his throwing shoulder. Prescott

The Associated PressST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Four

days before Florida State and Au-burn meet for the national title, two of their top recruits teamed up Thursday night to help Team High-light beat Team Nitro 31-21 in the Under Armour All-America Game at Tropicana Field.

Auburn recruit Sean White, from Fort Lauderdale, was selected Team Highlight’s MVP, and Florida State-bound Travis Rudolph, from West Palm Beach, had four recep-tions for 48 yards and a touchdown for Team Highlight.

Another Seminoles recruit, Dal-vin Cook of Miami, rushed for 78 yards and a touchdown on eight carries for Team Nitro.

Minnesota-bound running back Jeff Jones, from Minneapolis, was the MVP for Team Nitro after gain-ing 72 total yards and scoring a touchdown.

New Orleans running back Leon-ard Fournette, widely considered the nation’s top prospect, caught a 36-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to give Highlight a 31-14 lead before making his ver-bal commitment to LSU. Fournette, USA Today’s offensive player of the year, chose the Tigers over Alabama and Texas.

“I want to thank God for giving me this talent and ability to play this game ... for the next three or four years, the Boot baby, LSU,” Fournette said on the broadcast. “It came down to Alabama and LSU so I had to weigh both programs and I just think LSU is the best place for me.”

Two other New Orleans-area players, defensive lineman Ger-ald Willis III and wide receiver Devante “Speedy” Noil, decided to go different routes. Willis commit-ted to Florida, and Noil chose Texas A&M over LSU.

“(Texas A&M) just felt like home when I went on my offi cial visit,” said Noil, who had three recep-tions for 90 yards, including a 64-yard touchdown catch. “My former teammate, Noel Ellis, is at A&M and he has been like a brother to me during this process.”

Other commitments included Washington, D.C., defensive back Jalen Tabor to Arizona; Lewisville, Texas, safety Jamal Adams to LSU; and Beaumont, Texas, defensive back Tony Brown to Alabama.

White fi nished the game 10 of 12 for 156 yards with touchdown pass-es to Fournette and LSU commit Jacory Washington from Westlake, La.

The Associated PressAt times this season Mississippi

looked like one of the best teams in the Southeastern Conference. Then there were the times when the Rebels looked like one of the worst.

Turns out the truth was somewhere in the middle.

That’s fi ne for now, but it probably won’t be in the near future.

Ole Miss fi nished with an 8-5 record after a 25-17 victory over Georgia Tech in the Music City Bowl on Monday in Nashville, Tenn. It was the program’s second straight winning season under coach Hugh Freeze, and the 44-year-old was rewarded in December with a new contract that lasts through 2017 and will pay $3 million next season.

The school is also in the midst of a major fundraising project that includes a $12.5 million renovation for the pro-gram’s Manning Practice Facility. More money will be spent on announced plans to update and expand Vaught-Heming-way Stadium.

It’s all needed in the SEC’s never-end-ing arms race. But all that added cash also means added expectations.

“We are committed to placing our football program among the SEC’s best and make the Ole Miss family proud,” Ole Miss athletic director Ross Bjork said when Freeze’s new contract was an-nounced.

Winning the Music City Bowl was certainly another encouraging step in

The Associated PressMIAMI GARDENS, Fla. —

Ohio State’s Urban Meyer has never had any issue acclimat-ing to the biggest stages in college football. Clemson’s Dabo Swinney is sounding like someone who’s getting comfortable under the bright-est lights as well.

Meyer has coached in four previous BCS games. He’s never lost.

Swinney has taken his team to the BCS one other time, and lost by 37 points.

Of course, come Friday night, none of that will mat-ter. The seventh-ranked Buckeyes (12-1) and the 12th-ranked Tigers (10-2) will be

squaring off in the Orange Bowl, where Meyer will aim to keep his BCS record per-fect and Swinney will try to have his team, as he put it, “continue to climb the moun-tain.”

“When you have an oppor-tunity to come to a BCS ball game and lose it, you want to get back and have another opportunity,” Swinney said Thursday. “There’s only six teams, I think, in the coun-try that have been in two BCS bowls the last three years, and we’re one of them. So it’s a great opportunity for us to have a chance to win one.”

Meyer would say the same thing. His team had visions of

playing in Pasadena, Calif. for the BCS national champion-ship next week, but the loss in the Big Ten title game — the fi rst under Meyer in 25 games since he took over in Colum-bus — knocked the Buckeyes out of the title picture.

So instead, Ohio State headed to South Florida, where Meyer will look to add the Orange Bowl to his BCS collection that already includes two title-game wins and a Sugar Bowl victory while at Florida, and a Fiesta Bowl triumph from when he coached Utah.

“It’s a chance to go com-pete,” Meyer said. “Whether it’s checkers or ping pong,

we’re going to try to win the game. Our job every time we keep score is to win. It’s the mentality we try to create within our program. Whether it’s the Orange Bowl, whether it’s the eighth game of the season, we’re trying to win the game.”

Clemson lost the Orange Bowl two years ago to West Virginia, 70-33 — the game turning when the Tigers fum-bled the ball away in the sec-ond quarter, on a play where they would have taken the lead. Instead, the fl oodgates opened.

The Tigers are 21-4 since.“This team has more than

responded,” Swinney said.

Meyer, Swinney guide teams back to BCS

The Associated PressNEWPORT BEACH, Calif.

— Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston and the Flor-ida State offense have gotten most of the attention leading up to the BCS championship game.

The Seminoles’ defense is just as good — or even better.

And the defense has done it with a new scheme and a new coordinator who was a high school assistant only seven years ago.

Defensive coordinator Jer-emy Pruitt has turned the Seminoles into the No. 1 scor-ing defense in the nation de-spite a roster that lost seven defenders to the NFL draft in April.

The defense will get its mo-ment in the spotlight Mon-day night when No. 1 Florida State faces No. 2 Auburn.

“Jeremy Pruitt doing a great job at Florida State is no surprise to me at all,” said Alabama coach Nick Saban, who hired Pruitt as direc-tor of player development in 2007. “He did a fantastic job here for us, regardless of what his role was. Did a great job of coaching our secondary. I certainly felt like because he had been a coordinator in high school, he had a re-ally good, sort of, big-picture view of things, that he would make a really, really good co-ordinator. He certainly un-derstood our system very well

and would be able to apply our system here, and actually thought he could do that for us here.

“It doesn’t surprise me at all that he’s doing extremely well there with their defen-sive players because he did a fantastic job here.”

Pruitt was charged with in-stalling a complicated hybrid 3-4 scheme to replace the 4-3 run by former coordina-tor Mark Stoops. It’s an ag-gressive, blitzing system that can send anyone after the quarterback. The team has 33 sacks, but cornerback La-marcus Joyner leads the team with 5.0. The Seminoles lead the nation with 25 intercep-tions from 16 different play-

ers.Defenders love the scheme

because it allows anyone to make plays.

“I like the aggressiveness of it,” defensive end Christian Jones said. “We blitz a lot. We show a lot of blitz and then we drop. If you don’t know too much about our defense, it can really mess you up.”

Linebacker Telvin Smith added: “The dynamic fea-tures of it that so many times and so many different situa-tions, each guy can come off and make a play.”

It makes sense that the Flor-ida State secondary would ex-cel considering Pruitt learned

the daunting task of try-ing to rise into the SEC’s elite. Ole Miss has won six straight bowl games.

“There’s no question that winning a bowl game is very advantageous to you heading into recruit-ing and the offseason for the confi dence of these young men,” Freeze said after Monday’s game.

Freeze has produced quick improvement in Oxford over the past two seasons, bringing stability and winning to a program that fi nished 2-10 in 2011, including 0-8 in the SEC.

And the foundation has been laid for future success. Several veterans will be back for another season, including quar-terback Bo Wallace, who threw for 3,346 yards, 18 touchdowns and 10 inter-ceptions in his second full year as the starter.

The Rebels could also return productive receiv-er Donte Moncrief and All-American safety Cody Prewitt, though both will at least consider leaving for the NFL.

Wallace had surgery on his throwing shoulder last offseason and spent most of the spring and summer recovering. But this year, the 6-foot-4, 209-pound-er can focus on refi ning his game.

“I’m just really excited for the offseason, to actu-ally have an offseason to get better,” Wallace said. “Last year I just had to try

to get to the point that I was at after the shoulder surgery so I’m just really happy excited for it to get with (the strength and conditioning coaches). I’m going to work really hard this offseason.”

Freeze coaxed a con-sensus top 10 recruit-ing class to Oxford back last winter and many of them — including defen-sive end Robert Nkem-diche, left tackle Laremy Tunsil, safety Tony Con-nor and receiver Laquon Treadwell — had a stellar fi rst season.

Another quality class is expected in February.

But it’s still unclear if that will give Ole Miss enough talent to regularly compete with schools like Alabama, Auburn and Texas A&M. Freeze has a 15-11 overall mark with the Rebels, but just a 6-10 mark in league play.

The Rebels had some impressive victories this season, including a last-second triumph over LSU and a dominant road win over Texas. But that was balanced by a couple dis-appointing setbacks — es-pecially an overtime loss to rival Mississippi State.

It’s a reminder of just how far the Rebels have to climb to join the SEC’s elite.

But Monday’s win over Georgia Tech was anoth-er sign that there’s still ample reason for opti-mism.

“It is a very positive step,” Freeze said.

responded better than anyone could have rea-sonably imagined.

Prescott thanked his teammates, Mississippi State coach Dan Mul-len, university President Mark Keenum and the entire Mississippi State community for sticking with him and helping him persevere.

“It just allows me to go out there and just play football in peace and be at ease,” Prescott said.

Prescott wasn’t Missis-sippi State’s only star on a night when the Bulldogs outgained Rice 533-145

and scored the game’s fi -nal 44 points.

Jameon Lewis caught nine passes for 220 yards to break the Liberty Bowl receiving record held by Houston’s Vincent Mar-shall, who had 201 yards in a 44-36 loss to South Carolina in 2006. Lewis, a junior, also set the school single-game record.

“When he has the ball in his hands, he’s special,” Mullen said.

The Bulldogs also played dominant de-fense.

Rice had won the Con-ference USA title — its fi rst outright league championship of any

kind since 1957 — by relying on a rushing at-tack that was ranked 16th among all Football Bowl Subdivision teams. Rice gained only 61 yards rushing — 179 below its season average — on 32 carries against Missis-sippi State. Charles Ross, who entered the day having rushed for 1,252 yards and 14 touchdowns this season, was held to 28 yards on 10 carries.

“We knew coming into this game we were going to have to play our best to win it,” Rice coach David Bailiff said. “We didn’t.”

Rice took an early lead on Ross’ 1-yard touch-

down run, but Missis-sippi State took control by reaching the end zone on six of its next seven possessions. Prescott threw fi rst-half touch-down passes to LaDarius Perkins, Malcolm John-son and Artimus Samuel before running for two scores in the third quar-ter.

The Liberty Bowl is about a three-hour drive from Mississippi State’s campus, and the proxim-ity created a home-game atmosphere for the Bull-dogs. At least 90 percent of the fans appeared to be wearing Mississippi State maroon.

from Saban, widely con-sidered the best second-ary coach in college foot-ball. That’s why there wasn’t a ton of risk mov-ing Pruitt from director of player development to defensive backs coach after three seasons. That unit was Saban’s special-ty as Pruitt was still better known for his recruiting prowess.

“When I was offered the job, I just wanted to be a part of an organiza-tion,” Pruitt said. “I want-ed to go work for Coach Saban. I wanted to be one of Coach Saban’s guys, for a guy that was a high school coach. It’s been eight years ago I’m lin-ing off fi elds, I’m washing practice uniforms, I’m going to pick guys up. ... To sit here and say I’m going to be here today, no, I didn’t dream of it.”

Pruitt, a son of a foot-ball coach, credits those days coaching Hoover High School in Alabama for his rise. He said high school coaches are the best teachers because they have to mold a player from scratch. In a sense, Pruitt had to do the same to fi t a roster recruited for a 4-3 to play 3-4. Florida State plays a lot of downs with four linemen, but that’s the

complexity of the system along with having ver-satile players like Jones, Mario Edwards Jr., Smith, Jalen Ramsey and Joyner. The call isn’t nec-essarily dictated by per-sonnel — which should come in handy against a fast-paced Auburn team.

Things didn’t re-ally begin to gel for the Seminoles until after the 48-34 win against Bos-ton College when Jones moved to defensive end and Joyner moved to nickelback. Safety Ter-rence Brooks said the complexity of the system was diffi cult to grasp, but Pruitt had a way of ex-plaining it.

“Just seeing how much he broke it down and really made us under-stand just why we were doing each position or why we were doing cer-tain things,” Brooks said. “It was just amazing to see how much he can, I couldn’t even explain it.

“They really break it down, every play they do, tendencies, where people line up. It’s really crazy, but just buying into it and just seeing how many plays we were making in practice just by doing his defense. It was amazing. That right there made us all buy in so fast. It ac-tually made me want to learn it more.”

Community Events Winter storm pushes into Northeast

Associated PressBOSTON — A storm

expected to bring more than a foot of snow, stiff winds and punishing cold pushed into the North-east on Thursday, ex-tending Christmas break for some students while posing the fi rst test for New York’s new mayor and perhaps the last chal-lenge for Boston’s outgo-ing one.

Some schools in New England and New York closed well ahead of the snow, while cities mo-bilized plows and salt spreaders, and state of-fi ces sent workers home early. Some major high-ways were ordered closed overnight. U.S. airlines canceled more than 2,300 fl ights nationwide on Thursday in advance of the storm.

The heavy weather be-gan rolling in just a day after New York Mayor Bill de Blasio was sworn in to lead the nation’s largest city and a few days before Boston Mayor Thomas Menino ends 20 years in offi ce.

Menino announced a parking ban and said schools would be closed Friday in Boston, where up to 14 inches of snow was expected. Boston’s airport said it would not handle any fl ights after 8:30 p.m. Thursday.

“What a New Year’s gift, to receive one last snowstorm as mayor,” said Menino, whose suc-cessor takes offi ce Mon-day.

De Blasio, who as pub-lic advocate in 2010 criti-cized predecessor Mayor Michael Bloomberg for his handling of a post-Christmas storm, said hundreds of plows and salt spreaders would be on the streets as soon as the snow started falling Thursday night.

Religion2B • Daily Corinthian Friday, January 3, 2014

Driving through town on New Year’s Day gave me a particu-larly strange feeling. I hesitated about going to the grocery store on the fi rst day of the year, but I had to do it because I had failed to plan ahead – so goes one of my weaknesses.

Anyway, so many businesses were quiet and the parking lots were empty. Christmas decorations were no longer the focus and everything seemed to have the look of a movie in the “pause” mode. Life was at a standstill while getting ready for a fresh new year.

I had to won-der how many of us actually take the time to pause our busy lives and be still to fi g-ure out what we should do in the new year to make ourselves more produc-tive. Maybe our

minds should get as quiet as those closed businesses and al-low a fresh, new outlook to take over. I think I’ll work on that –

because I really need it!On a lighter note, I will share

some “advice from an old farm-er” I received from a friend. Maybe you can smile as you start off 2014 and look forward to a good year.

Fences need to be horse high, pig tight, and bull-strong.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere trac-tor.

Words that soak into your

ears are whispered – not yelled.Meanness don’t just happen

overnight.Forgive your enemies. It

messes up their heads.The best sermons are lived,

not preached.Don’t judge folks by their rel-

atives.Live a good, honorable life.

Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a sec-ond time.

Don’t interfere with some-thing that ain’t bothering you none.

The biggest troublemaker

you’ll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from previous bad judg-ment.

Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin’ it back in.

Happy new year!(Lora Ann Huff is a Wenaso-

ga resident and special colum-nist for the Daily Corinthian. Her column appears Friday. She may be reached at 1774 CR 700, Corinth, MS 38834.)

Take a farmer’s advice into the New Year

Lora Ann Huff

Back Porch

As the New Year is upon us and we are pondering what the year will be for us, what is it we are look-ing for? Are we looking for a better year, a more prosperous year, riches, glory, fame, or something that is going to push our image to a higher plane while on earth?

For those of us that know Jesus, know for sure that what we attain and accomplish on earth is only going to be with us for a little while. We are going to leave it all behind when it comes our time to go home and be with the Lord.

Why is it then that we put our faith in things, ob-jects, others, and let them control our destiny? Why is it that we work so hard to improve our image and living?

It is all humanistic and is very much needed for us to survive. All of us have to eat and live in a home taking care of this temple of God that only He gave us. Why is it that we abuse this temple of God with improper di-ets, bad habits that cause drunkenness which cre-ates abusive behavior toward our loved ones, neighbors, and others?

Why do we let our out-look on life become so cal-lous and course that we treat people in a way that we don’t want to be treat-ed? Have we forgotten the golden rule that Je-sus taught us in Matthew 7:12? So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”

We have created a sin-ful, selfi sh world for man-kind. Some have been beaten down so much that they don’t know where to turn to overcome the dif-fi culties they are faced with.

As this New Year begins why don’t we all take our focus in a new direction and look to the heavens and the God above for guidance and deliver-ance? When it comes time to create new resolutions let’s look for something that God would want to

us to do or have and leave the earthly pleasures and treasures alone. I am not saying not to reach out for worthy goals of bet-terment for yourself and family because that is what God would want us to do. Taking care of our needs while on earth is a

Godly thing and taking care of our family through spiritual guidance should be the top of our resolution list. Let’s get our selfi sh desires and wants behind us and look for spiri-tual guidance to help direct us in our lives.

We are told in Romans 12:3; “For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rath-er think of yourself with sober judgment, in accor-dance with the measure of faith God has given you.”

This year let’s turn our eyes on Jesus and seek His face for our New Year’s resolution. Let’s put behind us earthly de-sires and concentrate on what we really need. All of us want what is best for us, our family, neighbors, and friends.

Let’s tell all of them about the saving grace of Jesus and how He wants to be the top priority of their lives.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for each day you give me on earth. I know that everything that I have comes from you. Thank you for the assurance of knowing that this earth is only temporary and that my eternal home is with you. Amen.

Looking ahead to a brighter tomorrow

Gary AndrewsDevotionals

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah took its fi ght against gay marriage to the U.S. Supreme Court on Tues-day, asking the high court to suspend same-sex unions that became legal when a judge struck down the state’s voter-approved ban.

The heavily Mormon state wants the marriages to stop while it appeals a judge’s decision, which said banning gay couples from marrying violates their right to equal treat-ment under the law.

In papers fi led Tues-day, the state asked Jus-

tice Sonia Sotomayor to overturn a decision that has led to more than 900 gay marriages in Utah. Sotomayor handles emer-gency requests from Utah and other Rocky Moun-tain states.

Sotomayor responded by setting a deadline of by noon Friday for legal briefs from same-sex cou-ples. She can act by her-self or get the rest of the court involved.

“Numerous same-sex marriages are now occur-ring every day in Utah,” Utah lawyers complain in the fi ling. “Each one is an affront not only to

the interests of the state and its citizens in being able to defi ne marriage through ordinary demo-cratic channels, but also to this court’s unique role as fi nal arbiter.”

Also Tuesday, the Utah Attorney General’s Of-fi ce advertised a formal bid request to outside law fi rms for help preparing the appeals.

State offi cials have said it could cost $2 million, bringing criticism from a lawyer for couples who sued to overturn the ban and say Utah should give up the fi ght.

“We are disappointed

that Utah will spend mil-lions of dollars in tax-payer’s money, to attempt to reinstate laws which deny due process and equal protection to all of Utah’s citizens,” the law-yer, James Magleby, said Tuesday.

Utah insists that states have the authority to de-fi ne marriage as between a man and woman. “That states have a powerful in-terest in controlling the defi nition of marriage within their borders is in-disputable,” Utah said in the fi ling.

U.S. District Judge Robert Shelby’s deci-

sion on Dec. 20 came as a shock to many in the state, which approved the ban on same-sex mar-riage in 2004.

Shelby and the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap-peals have already refused to halt weddings while the state appeals what it calls a “rush to marry.” Magle-by argued that because so many couples have al-ready married, “there is no emergency need for a stay.”

Shelby’s decision came late on a Friday afternoon and sent people rushing to a county clerk’s offi ce in Salt Lake City — about

3 miles from the head-quarters of the Mormon church — for marriage licenses. The follow-ing Monday, 353 more gay and lesbian couples grabbed a license, some camping out overnight to get in line early the next morning.

After the 10th Circuit Court refused to halt the ruling, the few county clerks who had refused to issue licenses changed course.

Offi cials say things have slowed down after a run on marriage licenses that started hours after Shel-by’s decision.

Utah wants Supreme Court to block same-sex unions during appeal

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has thrown a hitch into Pres-ident Barack Obama’s new health care law by blocking a requirement that some religion-affi l-iated organizations pro-vide health insurance that includes birth con-trol.

Justice Sonia Soto-mayor late Tuesday night decided to block imple-mentation of the contra-ceptive coverage require-ment, only hours before the law’s insurance cov-erage went into effect on New Year’s Day.

Her decision, which came after federal court fi lings by Catholic-affi li-ated groups from around the nation in hopes of de-laying the requirements, throws a part of the pres-ident’s signature law into temporary disarray. At least one federal appeals court agreed with Soto-mayor, issuing its own stay against part of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.

The White House on

Wednesday issued a statement saying that the administration is confi -dent that its rules “strike the balance of providing women with free contra-ceptive coverage while preventing non-profi t religious organizations with religious objections to contraceptive coverage from having to contract, arrange, pay, or refer for such coverage.”

Sotomayor acted on a request from an organi-zation of Catholic nuns in Denver, the Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged. Its request for an emergency stay had been denied earlier in the day by a federal appeals court.

The government is “temporarily enjoined from enforcing against applicants the contracep-tive coverage require-ments imposed by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,” Sotomayor said in the order.

Sotomayor, who was in New York Tuesday night to lead the fi nal 60-sec-ond countdown and

push the ceremonial but-ton to signal the descent of the Times Square New Year’s Eve ball, gave gov-ernment offi cials until 9 a.m. Friday to respond to her order. A decision on whether to make the temporary injunction permanent or dissolve it likely won’t be made be-fore then.

“The government has lots of ways to deliver contraceptives to peo-ple,” said Mark Rienzi, a lawyer for the nuns. “It doesn’t need to force nuns to participate.”

Under the health care law, most health insur-ance plans have to cover all FDA-approved con-traceptives as preventive care for women. That means the coverage is provided free of charge.

Churches and other houses of worship are exempt from the birth control requirement, but affi liated institutions that serve the general public are not. That includes charitable organizations, universities and hospi-tals.

The requirement prompted an outcry from religious groups, which led the adminis-tration to try to craft a compromise. Under that compromise, insurers or health plan administra-tors must provide birth control coverage, and the religious institution itself is not responsible.

But the administra-tion’s compromise did not satisfy some critics, who called it a fi g leaf.

The nuns would have to sign a form authoriz-ing their insurance com-pany to provide contra-ceptive coverage, which would still violate their beliefs, Rienzi said.

Sotomayor’s decision to delay the contracep-tive portion of the law was joined by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Cir-cuit, which also issued an emergency stay for Cath-olic-affi liated groups challenging the contra-ceptive provision, includ-ing the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C., and Catholic University.

Justice delays law’s birth control mandate

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis, laying out his hopes Wednesday for the just-begun year, urged people to work for a world where everyone accepts each other’s dif-ferences and where en-emies recognize that they are brothers.

“We are all children of one heavenly father. We belong to the same human family and we share a common destiny,” Francis said, speaking from his studio window overlooking St. Peter’s Square, jammed with tens of thousands of faith-ful, tourists and Romans.

“This brings a respon-sibility for each to work so that the world be-comes a community of brothers who respect each other, accept each other in one’s diversity, and take care of one an-other,” the pope said.

Setting aside his pre-pared text for a moment, he expressed impatience with violence in the world. “What is happen-

ing in the heart of man? What is happening in the heart of humanity?” Francis asked. “It’s time to stop.”

He told the crowd this refl ection was inspired by a letter he received from a man — “maybe one of you” — who la-mented that there are “so many tragedies and wars in the world.”

“I, too, believe that it will be good for us to stop ourselves in this path of violence and search for peace,” Francis said.

In his remarks to the often-applauding crowd, he also expressed hope that “the gospel of broth-erhood speak to every conscience and knock down the walls that im-pede enemies from rec-ognizing that they are brothers.”

Earlier, during his homily at New Year’s Mass in St. Peter’s Ba-silica, Francis spoke of humanity’s journey in the year unfolding and invoked what he said were “words of blessing,”

explaining that they are “strength, courage and hope.”

“Not an illusory hope,” he added, “based on frail human promises, or a naive hope which pre-sumes that the future will be better simply because it is the future.”

In his fi rst year as pope, Francis has charted a path for what he calls a “poor” church attentive to the needy. While offer-ing new year’s wishes to the crowd in the square, Francis pressed his cam-paign on behalf of the downtrodden.

“We are also called to see the violence and injustices present in so many parts of the world, and which cannot leave us indifferent and im-mobile,” Francis said. “There is the need for the commitment of all to build a society that is tru-ly more just and united.”

Hearing “the cry of peace from peoples who are oppressed by war and by violence,” Francis prayed that “the courage

of dialogue and recon-ciliation prevail over the temptation for vendetta, arrogance, corruption.”

The Catholic church dedicates Jan. 1 to the promotion of world peace, and St. Peter’s Square, just as the pope appeared, marked the end of a peace march by thousands of people.

The marchers included Lula Teclehaimanut from Eritrea.

“The pope is truly our hope, not just for the Eritrean population but for the whole world, I believe,” she said, recall-ing Francis’ call for refu-gees to be welcomed and treated humanely. The refugees who risk their lives to fl ee to Europe, many of them by boat, include some from her homeland.

Among the many na-tional fl ags waved by the peace marchers was that of Syria, with several Syrians among the par-ticipants expressing hope that peace reaches their country.
