By one degree, Monday morning’s frigid blast set a new record for the Corinth area.

The overnight low of 10 de-grees recorded at both the Corinth-Alcorn County Airport and by the cooperative observer located about 7 miles southwest of Corinth beats a record of 11 degrees set exactly 44 years ear-

lier on Jan. 6, 1970.The historical numbers are

courtesy of Victor Murphy, climate focal point at the Na-tional Weather Service South-ern Region Headquarters in Ft. Worth, Texas, where the co-operative and airport data are stored.

Since the record covers the 24 hours of the date, it was possible the temperature could

break the record again before midnight going into today, de-pending on how quickly the mercury fell with a forecast low of 6 in Corinth.

Former Corinthian Troy Kimmel, now a meteorologist in Texas, also took a look at the numbers.

“The lowest high temperature ever recorded on Jan. 6 would have been 21 degrees on Jan. 6,

1970, and what we can tell was at midnight last night at the air-port it was right at 20 or 21. So you probably have tied the re-cord lowest high for this date.”

Some snow was also reported on that day 44 years ago.

Kimmel was a Corinth junior high student at the time, and he said he remembers the bitter cold spell.

The record low for Jan. 7 is 5

degrees, also set in 1970. Jan. 7 also has the lowest high tem-perature for that date at 19.

Kimmel said the numbers are from cooperative program reports dating back to about 1900. The program uses citi-zens to report weather observa-tions across the country.

Kimmel happened to be in Europe Monday, enjoying a balmy day in the 50s.

New low temperature set in areaBY JEBB JOHNSTON

Crossroads residents bundled up to stay warm Sunday and Monday, as a major arctic system moved across the area.

“This weather is just awful,” chattered Ellen Maness of Glen, while she sipped a mocha latte from KC’s Espresso. “The wind will cut right through you.”

Sunday brought some rain and a bit of sleet before tempera-tures started to drop. Wind gusts topped 25 mph. Monday’s high temperature was 21 recorded at midnight, while the low tempera-ture bottomed out at 11 according to the website, corinthweather.net.

“It’s cold, that’s for sure,” blustered Ricky Gibens, Alcorn County Director of Emergency Services. “Single digits are tough on everybody.”

Gibens said the county roads weren’t as bad as he thought. “Bridges had some patchy ice, but nothing major,” he said.

In the city, Corinth Street Com-missioner Philip Verdung said salt treatment was applied to most bridges and hills around town just in case.

“Most of the frozen precipita-tion the area got was quickly dried up by the strong winds,” said Ver-dung.

The extreme cold weather kept Alcorn County schools from opening on Monday. McNairy County schools were closed Mon-day and Tuesday due to heating concerns, as well. Northeast Mis-sissippi Community College cam-pus’ in Booneville and Corinth were also canceled on Monday, while Tishomingo County schools were delayed two hours.

Residents were busy ensuring

their vehicles were ready for the cold.

“We sold a ton of antifreeze and only have one pallet left,” one Au-tozone employee said.

Grocery store shelves were cleared of milk, bread and eggs as the hazardous weather ap-proached the area.

“We ran out of some stuff Sun-day night,” said Danny Wilbanks, general manager at Gardner’s Supermarket. “We actually carry extra items at this time of year, so when items run out in the store we can just get extra out of the warehouse.”

“People normally buy stuff they can eat if the power goes off,” he said. “Canned goods also ran low.”

A split vote by the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors on Monday will give 911 em-ployees a pay raise.

Board President Lowell Hinton cast a tie-breaking “yes” vote to make it a 3-2 ap-proval of pay raises that the board had tabled in October amid concerns about the 911 budget defi cit.

Those concerns continue, but District 2 Supervisor Dal Nelms, who made the motion to give the pay hike as origi-nally presented, said the em-ployees should not be penal-ized for it.

“It’s not those employees’ fault,” he said.

Also voting in favor was District 3 Supervisor Tim Mitchell, who seconded the motion and noted that the budget as approved for the current fi scal year did include funds for the raises.

Gary Ross, District 4, and Jimmy Tate Waldon, District

5, voted “no.”“I’m going to be against it,

not because of the employees, but because we’re not where we need to be as far as the budget is concerned,” said Waldon.

“What bothers me is where is this money coming from,” said Ross.

The 911 budget is suffer-ing from the decline in fees derived from land line use as people pull the plug on home phone service and shift to mobile phones.

Some county offi cials are concerned Alcorn County is not receiving fees for all of the phones in use in the county, and supervisors are watching with interest what happens in Hinds County, where of-fi cials want to pursue some of the money they believe is not making it from the phone companies to the 911 fund.

Hinton said another con-tributor to the shortfall is that

The 2014 Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter calendar is back from the printer and ready to help raise some much needed funds.

“The calendar has turned into our biggest fundraiser of the year,” said Charlotte Doeh-ner, shelter volunteer director. “These extra funds are really im-portant right now since the area has been hit with colder than normal weather.”

Doehner noted the shelter has seen an increase in the price of propane and kerosene, both of which is a viable part of daily op-eration at the shelter.

“Electric bills are three times

more than normal, because of the cold weather,” she said.

Last year the shelter printed its fi rst calendar, “Real Men Love Cats Too.” This year the calendar, “Looking Forward to 2014,” features a combination of shelter animals and pets owned by community supporters.

CLARKSDALE — Mis-sissippi lawmakers start their three-month session at noon today, and they face a long agenda. They'll write a budget, seek ways to control prison costs, de-bate education policy and argue about health care.

Katisha Ray, a 27-year-old Clarksdale resident, said she wants them to consider creating college scholarships for people with fi nancial need. The state puts some money into scholarships now, but they're not need-based. Rather, they're for students who fi nish high school with top grades or for people who want to en-ter specifi c fi elds, such as teaching. With tighter lim-its on federal Pell grants in the past couple of years, some lower-income stu-dents are having a harder

time paying for college.Ray started studying

mass communication at Alcorn State University but says she moved back home to Clarksdale in 2008 after her father suf-fered a stroke. She has a part-time job and stu-dent loan debt. She said she's about a year short of completing her bachelor's degree and wants to fi nish but doesn't know how she can afford it.

“It would be extra hard for me to get assistance,” Ray said as she stood among the racks of suits and sweaters at New York Hi-Style, the downtown Clarksdale clothing store where she works 20 to 30 hours a week.

One of the store's own-ers, Richie Shingrani, said he wants lawmakers to increase the pay for el-ementary and secondary teachers.

“If they don't pay a

proper salary, nobody is going to come here,” said Shingrani, who has oper-ated his store in the same location for 28 years, dur-ing which he has seen Clarksdale go from al-most a ghost town to a place that now boasts sev-eral bustling blues clubs and restaurants and even an upscale spa just down Yazoo Avenue.

Top lawmakers, includ-ing Republican House Speaker Philip Gunn, are discussing teacher pay raises. However, there has been little talk about creating need-based scholarships for college students.

This is the third year of a four-year term, and many believe this is a good time to get things done: First-term legislators are com-fortable in their jobs, and 2015 election-year pres-sure is still a somewhat distant concern.

Legislators are expect-ed to fi ght over education funding as they write a budget. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant and the Re-publican-led Joint Leg-islative Budget Commit-tee propose a few million more dollars for specifi c education programs, such as intensive literacy train-ing in early elementary school. However, neither the legislative plan nor the governor's plan would fully fund the Mississippi Adequate Education Pro-gram, which is the largest chunk of money for el-ementary and secondary schools.

MAEP is a complex funding formula designed to ensure each district receives enough money to meet certain academic standards. It became law in 1997 but has been fully funded only twice, dur-ing election years. The formula was designed to

help Mississippi avoid an equity-funding lawsuit after such suits were fi led in other states challeng-ing the disparity between wealthier and poorer dis-tricts.

Legislators are trying to control prison costs that have grown steadily, and eaten a larger share of the state budget, during the past two decades.

They could argue about increasing the gasoline tax to pay for highway construction and mainte-nance or expanding Med-icaid — an option under the federal health reform law. However, neither issue appears to have enough votes to pass.

Although a few lawmak-ers argue a higher fuel tax would help improve the safety of roads, many say drivers are taxed enough. And while many Demo-crats say expanding Med-icaid is a bargain with the

federal government pay-ing most of the immedi-ate cost, Republicans who control the House and Senate say the state can't afford to add hundreds of thousands more people to the program.

Legislators have an ear-ly April deadline to adopt a budget for fi scal 2015, which begins July 1. Gov. Bryant and the Joint Leg-islative Budget Commit-tee have separate budget proposals. Both seek to reduce the state's use of “one-time money,” such as winnings from lawsuit settlements, to pay for re-curring expenses.

“My number one bud-get priority is to do what we told the taxpayers we'd do in 2011 — that is, get to a structurally balanced budget where recurring revenue equals recurring expenditures,” Republican Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves said.

Luke were spotted driv-ing around the streets of Corinth searching for any less fortunate animals out braving the cold.

“We saw two locations where animals were out-side,” said Doehner. “One person was very happy we stopped and reminded them of the effect cold has on animals, while the other person wasn’t so.”

Doehner noted people should treat animals how they would want to be treated.

The National Weather Service in Memphis fore-casted today’s high to reach 25 with sunny skies. A Wind Child Advisory was

in effect today until 6 a.m. Wednesday’s forecast calls for another day of sun with a high near 41. Wednes-day night brings another chance for freezing rain and sleet. Chance of precipita-tion is 30 percent. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. On Thursday, the chance of freezing rain con-tinues though noon.

“Trucks are fueled and chainsaws are ready just in case this Wednesday/Thursday system brings anything major,” said Gibens. “During this time of the year, we are always ready for anything.”

the City of Corinth did not join in the consoli-dated dispatch at the new justice center.

“911 is 911. It’s not Alcorn County or the city or Farmington or anybody else,” said Waldon. “It’s a unifi ed group of services that’s provided by one agency, and we’re picking the li-on’s share of the tab up. I think the city as well as the county residents need to understand we don’t need separate dis-patching.”

The board also ap-proved pay raise re-quests for employees in the tax collector’s offi ce;

a number of District 3 employees; and district attorney employees Deborah Daniel, An-gela Denise Harrison and April Bostick. The county gets full reim-bursement on the DA employees’ pay.

pointed William H. Da-vis Jr. to continue as the board attorney for the coming year.

• The board approved Jan. 20 as a county holi-day for Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday and Robert E. Lee’s birth-day. Because that is the next regular meet-ing date, the board will meet on Friday, Jan. 17.

Today in

history

Today is Tuesday, Jan. 7, the seventh day of 2014. There are 358 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlightin History:

On Jan. 7, 1789, Amer-

ica held its first presi-dential election as vot-ers chose electors who, a month later, selected George Washington to be the nation’s first chief executive.

On this date:

In 1610, astronomer

Galileo Galilei began observing three of Jupi-ter’s moons (he spotted a fourth moon almost a week later).

In 1800, the 13th

president of the United States, Millard Fillmore, was born in Summerhill, N.Y.

In 1894, one of the

earliest motion picture experiments took place at the Thomas Edison studio in West Orange, N.J., as Fred Ott was filmed taking a pinch of snuff and sneezing.

In 1927, commercial

transatlantic telephone service was inaugurated between New York and London.

In 1942, the Japanese

siege of Bataan began during World War II. (The fall of Bataan three months later was fol-lowed by the notorious Death March.)

In 1949, George C.

Marshall resigned as U.S. Secretary of State; President Harry S. Tru-man chose Dean Ache-son to succeed him.

In 1953, President

Harry S. Truman an-nounced in his State of the Union message to Congress that the United States had developed a hydrogen bomb.

In 1963, the U.S. Post

Office raised the cost of a first-class stamp from 4 to 5 cents.

In 1973, sniper Mark

Essex laid siege at a Howard Johnson’s Motor Lodge in downtown New Orleans for about 10 hours, killing seven peo-ple before being slain by police sharpshooters.

In 1979, Vietnamese

forces captured the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh, overthrow-ing the Khmer Rouge government.

In 1989, Emperor Hi-

rohito of Japan died in Tokyo at age 87; he was succeeded by his son, Crown Prince Akihito.

In 1999, for the sec-

ond time in history, an impeached American president went on trial before the Senate. Presi-dent Bill Clinton faced charges of perjury and obstruction of justice; he was acquitted.

less likely than women to become the victims of a stalker.

Anyone can fall prey to a stalkers surveillance.

According to results from the 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sex-ual Violence Survey, one in 6 women (16.2%) and one in 19 men (5.2%) in the United States have ex-perienced stalking victim-ization at some point dur-ing their lifetime in which

they felt very fearful or be-lieved that they or some-one close to them would be harmed or killed.

Stalking takes a mental toll on and can have pro-found psychological ef-fects on its victims.

“Because the experi-ence of being stalked has such long-term harmful effects on victims, both in terms of their emotional well-being and their earn-ings capacity, it is impera-tive that victims receive ready access to immedi-

ate and sustained therapy and monetary compen-sation for their trauma,” said William Darity, Pro-fessor of public policy in the Sanford School of Public Policy.

Knowledge is power.If you suspect your ac-

tivities and movements have attracted the atten-tion of a stalker, take ac-tion immediately.

The sooner it is report-ed, the better.

In addition to alerting police, there are other

things that a person can do in order to be proac-tive.

• Keep a log of all inci-dents that occur and in-clude the date and time that it happened.

• Always be alert and never put yourself in a situation where you are vulnerable.

• Save all letters, text messages, emails, and voicemails from the stalk-er.

• Preserve anything that can be used as evidence.

• Always check the back seat of your vehicle and lock the doors as soon as you get in.

• Alert family and friends so they know to be on the lookout for suspi-cious activity.

Lastly, if you suspect that you are being fol-lowed, never go home.

Instead, drive to the police station or a crowed public location.

WASHINGTON — You were patient with the government’s kooky website, and now you have your health insur-ance card. That’s good, since your family is ex-pecting a new baby.

But you may have jump through more hoops to get the child formally added to your policy. The Obama administra-tion confi rms there is no quick and easy way for consumers to update their coverage under the new health law for the birth of a baby and other common life changes.

With regular private insurance, parents just notify the health plan. Insurers still must cover new babies, offi cials say, but parents will also have to contact the govern-ment at some point later.

For now, the Health-Care.gov website can’t

handle new baby up-dates, along with a list of other life changes in-cluding marriage and di-vorce, a death in the fam-ily, a new job or a change in income, even moving to a different commu-nity.

Such changes affect not only coverage but also the fi nancial assis-tance available under the law, so the government has to be brought into the loop. But the sys-tem’s wiring for that vital federal function isn’t yet fully connected.

At least 2 million peo-ple have signed up for private health policies through new government markets under President Barack Obama’s over-haul. Coverage started Wednesday, and so far, things appear to be run-ning fairly smoothly, al-though it may take time for problems to bubble up. Health and Human Services Secretary Kath-

leen Sebelius calls it “a new day in health care.”

Insurers say comput-erized “change in cir-cumstance” updates to deal with family and life developments were sup-posed to have been part of the federal system from the start.

But that feature got postponed as technicians scrambled to fi x techni-cal problems that over-whelmed the health care website during its fi rst couple of months.

“It’s just another ex-ample of, ‘We’ll fi x that later,’” said Bob Lasze-wski, an industry consul-tant who said he’s gotten complaints from several insurers. “This needed to be done well before January. It’s sort of a fl y-by-night approach.”

“We are currently working with insurers to fi nd ways to make chang-ing coverage easier while we develop an automat-ed way for consumers

to update their coverage directly,” responded ad-ministration spokesman Aaron Albright.

A Dec. 31 circular from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services addressed the problem.

In questions and an-swers for insurers, the government said that the federal insurance mar-ketplace will not be able to add a child until the system’s automated fea-tures become “available later.” It does not pro-vide any clue as to when that might take place.

The federal market-place serves 36 states through HealthCare.gov and call centers. The Medicare agency, which runs the government’s other major health pro-grams, is also respon-sible for the coverage ex-pansion under Obama’s law.

The question-and-answer circular says parents with a new baby

will be told to contact their insurer directly “to include the child imme-diately” on their existing policy.

After the federal sys-tem is ready to process changes, parents will have to contact the gov-ernment to formally bring their records up to date. Albright said par-ents will be able to add a new child to their policy for 30 days.

Having a baby could increase a family’s monthly premiums, but it could also mean that the parents are eligible for a bigger tax credit to help with the cost. Un-der some circumstances, it could make the child or the family eligible for Medicaid, a safety-net program that is virtu-ally free of cost to low-income benefi ciaries.

“Add it to the list that shows HealthCare.gov is not done,” Laszewski said.

Adding baby to new health law plans not easyBY RICARDO ALONSO-

MERIDIAN — The fi rst thing Col. Mike Nabors did when he took over command of the 186th Air Refueling Wing at Key Field was walk over to a large window in his offi ce and gaze out over the tarmac where several KC-135 tankers sat si-lently awaiting their next mission.

Nabors, a 30-year vet-eran of the U.S. Air Force and the Air National Guard, wondered quietly what he had gotten him-self into.

“I felt a pressure on me, I’m not going to lie about that,” Nabors said. “But it went away a short time later when I drove through the gate the next morning and the guard handed me the newspa-per saying, ‘Here is your paper Colonel.’ I felt right then everything was go-ing to work out fi ne and I was at ease.”

In December, Nabors was welcomed as the new commander at the G. V.

“Sonny” Montgomery National Guard Complex in Meridian taking over for Col. Franklin Chalk who retired Nov. 30 after seven years at the con-trols.

The father of three children, Nabors was commander of fl ight op-erations for the 186th ARW and a pilot in the cockpit of the KC-135 Stratotanker before be-ing tapped by Mississippi National Guard Adjutant Gen. Augustus Collins. Nabors said he is grateful for the confi dence Collins has in his ability to lead the 186th ARW.

“I think the most im-portant thing is that I’m confi dent in the mem-bers of the 186th ARW,” Nabors said. “I under-stand I’ve been given a legacy to continue to build upon one left by Col. Chalk that was left to him by the previous com-mander. The wing has become accustomed to performing at the highest level possible. I want us to continue that winning

streak.”Nabors said he has

seen fi rsthand the type of airman that has come through the gates of the base. These are the same men and women who have taken on numer-ous fl ying missions and overcome great adversity with the loss, and then with the reacquisition of the KC-135 tanker fl ying mission.

These are the same airmen who took an Air Force mission, the MC-12 reconnaissance pro-gram called “Project Lib-erty,” and built it from scratch, virtually writing the manual and training the pilots and crews.

The standard is set high, thanks to the out-standing marks the wing earned in a recent USAF readiness exercise the fi rst tanker wing, wheth-er it was in the guard, re-serve or active duty, ever to do so.

Nabors’ new respon-sibilities will include overseeing the mission and the members of his

wing, as well as recruit-ing new members to join the Guard. Nabors will now oversee all logistics, training, personnel, and fl ying exercises for the entire base at Key Field.

At this moment, train-ing and getting every air-man on the base up to speed on the KC-135 is the fi rst order of the day.

“You wouldn’t think that much would change in just a two-year pe-riod but the tanker has changed in the systems we are used to,” Nabors said. “There are new procedures and other demands. We have to be profi cient in each and ev-ery one of them to main-tain our high standards.”

Nabors said the 186th ARW and many other National Guard units have demonstrated time and again just how valu-able these personnel can be. There is no more stigma of the weekend warrior, especially after the success and readi-ness capabilities of the nation’s National Guard

was demonstrated be-ginning in the fi rst Gulf War and continuing to-day in Afghanistan. Mili-tary leaders of the United States have come to both appreciate and count on all National Guard forces to do the missions at a high level of competency.

“We step up,” Nabors said. “We answer the call and we do our jobs well.”

The overall force make-up of guard units within a state will also have a fu-ture bearing on where, how, and when the 186th ARW will take off. Nabors said the new initiatives are leaning toward pack-age deals, meaning the 186th ARW, the 172nd Airlift Wing stationed in Jackson, the 155th Bri-gade Combat Team scat-tered across the state and so forth may deploy to-gether to augment other forces from other states.

This is not even con-sidering the special op-erations and smaller, tactically driven assets the armed forces have at their command.

NEW ORLEANS— A team of plaintiffs’ attor-neys has spent roughly $16 million to sue the Army Corps of Engineers over levee breaches that fl ooded most of New Or-leans after Hurricane Katrina. Joseph Bruno, one of those lawyers, estimates that they ul-timately will recoup a mere $3.5 million of their investment.

There won’t be any windfalls for their clients, either. A string of court

rulings has insulated the federal government from liability for billions of dollars in fl ood damage that many residents and business owners have blamed on the corps’ shoddy design, construc-tion and maintenance of the region’s system of le-vees and fl oodwalls.

The courts have been a dead end for many other plaintiffs seeking com-pensation for Katrina-re-lated losses. Rulings have consistently affi rmed the insurance industry’s po-sition that its homeowner policies don’t cover dam-

age from a hurricane’s rising water, a blow for many Katrina victims in Louisiana and Missis-sippi whose homes were wrecked by Katrina’s storm surge.

Only a handful of Ka-trina legal battles con-tinue to linger. A no-table example is a jury trial scheduled to start this month for fl ood damage claims against Jefferson Parish and its disgraced former parish president, Aaron Brous-sard, over a decision to evacuate drainage pump operators just before the

storm’s landfall.But the bulk of the civil

litigation spawned by the 2005 hurricane already has been resolved, usu-ally to the plaintiffs’ det-riment.

“In my mind, Katrina is done,” Bruno said.

Two weeks ago, U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval Jr. in New Orleans dismissed tens of thou-sands of levee-related claims against the federal government. Duval has presided over a batch of consolidated claims that has generated more than 21,000 docket entries

over the years. And his work on the litigation is largely done.

Duval’s recent order essentially was a formali-ty. The fate of those cases was sealed more than a year ago, when a federal appeals court reversed itself and overturned Du-val’s landmark ruling that the federal government wasn’t immune from lawsuits blaming fl ood damage on the corps’ op-eration and maintenance of a New Orleans ship-ping channel. In June, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case.

New York’s new mayor, Bill de Blasio, in his inaugural speech, denounced people “on the far right” who “continue to preach the virtue of trickle-down economics.”

According to Mayor de Bla-sio, “They believe that the way to move forward is to give more to the most fortunate, and that somehow the benefi ts will work

their way down to everyone else.”If there is ever a contest for the biggest lie in

politics, this one should be a top contender.While there have been all too many lies told

in politics, most have some little tiny fraction of truth in them, to make them seem plausible. But the “trickle-down” lie is 100 percent lie.

It should win the contest both because of its purity – no contaminating speck of truth – and because of how many people have repeated it over the years, without any evidence being asked for or given.

Years ago, this column challenged anybody to quote any economist outside of an insane asylum who had ever advocated this “trickle-down” theory. Some readers said that some-body said that somebody else had advocated a “trickle-down” policy. But they could never name that somebody else and quote them.

Mayor de Blasio is by no means the fi rst poli-tician to denounce this non-existent theory. Back in 2008, presidential candidate Barack Obama attacked what he called “an economic philosophy” which “says we should give more and more to those with the most and hope that prosperity trickles down to everyone else.”

Let’s do something completely unexpected: Let’s stop and think. Why would anyone advo-cate that we “give” something to A in hopes that it would trickle down to B? Why in the world would any sane person not give it to B and cut out the middleman? But all this is moot, be-cause there was no trickle-down theory about giving something to anybody in the fi rst place.

The “trickle-down” theory cannot be found in even the most voluminous scholarly studies of economic theories -- including J.A. Schum-peter’s monumental “History of Economic Analysis,” more than a thousand pages long and printed in very small type.

It is not just in politics that the non-existent “trickle-down” theory is found. It has been at-tacked in the New York Times, in the Wash-ington Post and by professors at prestigious American universities – and even as far away as India. Yet none of those who denounce a “trickle-down” theory can quote anybody who actually advocated it.

The book “Winner-Take-All Politics” refers to “the ‘trickle-down’ scenario that advocates of helping the have-it-alls with tax cuts and other goodies constantly trot out.” But no one who actually trotted out any such scenario was cited, much less quoted.

One of the things that provoke the left into bringing out the “trickle-down” bogeyman is any suggestion that there are limits to how high they can push tax rates on people with high incomes, without causing repercussions that hurt the economy as a whole.

But, contrary to Mayor de Blasio, this is not a view confi ned to people on the “far right.” Such liberal icons as Presidents John F. Kennedy and Woodrow Wilson likewise argued that tax rates can be so high that they have an adverse effect on the economy.

In his 1919 address to Congress, Woodrow Wilson warned that, at some point, “high rates of income and profi ts taxes discourage energy, remove the incentive to new enterprise, en-courage extravagant expenditures, and pro-duce industrial stagnation with consequent unemployment and other attendant evils.”

In a 1962 address to Congress, John F. Ken-nedy said, “it is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the rev-enues in the long run is to cut the rates now.”

This was not a new idea. John Maynard Keynes said, back in 1933, that “taxation may be so high as to defeat its object,” that in the long run, a reduction of the tax rate “will run a better chance, than an increase, of balancing the budget.” And Keynes was not on “the far right” either.

The time is long overdue for people to ask themselves why it is necessary for those on the left to make up a lie if what they believe in is true.

The ‘Trickle-Down’ Lie

Prayer for today

A verse to share

JACKSON — Mississippi faces a contentious Repub-lican primary battle for the U.S. Senate this year with state lawmaker Chris McDaniel trying to unseat Thad Cochran, the man who’s been in Congress al-most as long as McDaniel has been alive.

Just under fi ve months remain until the June 3 pri-mary. The state Legislature is scheduled to be in ses-sion three of those months, starting at noon Tuesday and ending no later than April 6.

No doubt, McDaniel will have a fully packed sched-ule as he tries to balance campaign appearances with duties as a state sena-tor from Jones County. No doubt, people will be keep-ing track of McDaniel’s at-tendance record at the state Capitol.

The 41-year-old from El-lisville launched his U.S. Senate campaign in Octo-ber, months after he and several colleagues formed a conservative coalition. The group thinks GOP leaders such as Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves are, well, just not conserva-tive enough. The legislative session gives McDaniel a

platform to make speech-es about ideas that ap-peal to his tea party base.

As for the l a w m a k e r s who aren’t M c D a n i e l fans? Those folks — Dem-ocrat and Re-

publican alike — will get a chance to maneuver against him every time he steps up to the microphone.

Expect McDaniel to men-tion liberty and the Con-stitution almost any time he gets up to speak about a bill (he said “liberty” and “Constitution” about a doz-en times each during his campaign announcement). Expect him to criticize government spending, on both the federal and state level. Expect him to criti-cize Common Core, the set of academic standards that Mississippi and most other states have adopted. The standards are not a federal dictate, but tea partiers hate them and members of the conservative coalition see them as a big step toward Washington taking over lo-

cal schools.Reeves, who presides

over the Senate, was asked by The Associated Press how much the U.S. Senate race will affect the dynam-ics of the state Senate this session.

“I would anticipate that it would affect the dynamics in the Senate zero,” Reeves said with a straight face and without hesitation.

“The vast majority of members of members of the Senate were elected, well, all of them were elected to do a job, and that is to govern on behalf of their constituents. And the vast majority of them will be committed to do just that,” Reeves said. “And so I don’t anticipate there being any change in the dynamics in the Senate.”

Reeves was among many big-name Republicans who quickly threw their support to Cochran when the sena-tor announced in early De-cember that he’s running again. Cochran revealed his plans the day before his 76th birthday, and said he intends to serve the full six years if re-elected. He served three two-year terms in the U.S. House before

winning one of the state’s two Senate seats in 1978. As a longtime leader of the Ap-propriations Committee, he has steered billions of dol-lars to his home state over the years.

Many Democrats relish the thought of a bruising Republican primary. State GOP chairman Joe Nosef called for party unity in an email this past week.

“Having robust disagree-ments on policy, politics, and even candidates is un-avoidable at a time when we have more Republicans in offi ce than ever before,” Nosef wrote. “It is critical, however, that we make sure our energy and resources are focused on defeating our liberal Democrat op-ponents, rather than on at-tacking each other. If not, we risk helping our op-ponents and hurting our cause.”

He added: “Winning elec-tions is how we are able to ensure our priorities and policies actually have a chance to get implement-ed.”

US Senate race will impact session

NEW YORK CITY – If you can imagine a place today that would extend credit to struggling but brilliant jour-nalists, novelists and theater people, where, say, Donna Tart and Jon Stewart and Tina Brown might convene daily for lunch and drinks, then there might be a con-temporary equivalent of The Algonquin Round Table.

I cannot imagine. The world has turned. Famous writers and actors don’t need credit. Hotels don’t extend it. Actors worry over their portfolios. Writers hire personal trainers. Everyone rushes home to water his ferns.

But I love to visit the el-egant Algonquin Hotel on West 44th Street and stare at the portrait of a dozen of this country’s most cel-ebrated wits and pretend that such a hard-drinking, take-no-prisoners conven-tion might still be possible. I’d gladly buy a ticket.

First of all, it wasn’t ex-actly a round table but two tables pushed together. After the fi rst World War,

a few doors away from Vanity Fair m a g a z i n e where they all worked, writ-ers Dorothy Parker, Rob-ert Benchley and Robert Sherwood ate lunch almost

every day in the Algonquin Hotel.

They were the core of a group of 20-somethings in the Roaring ‘20s who enjoyed free celery and popovers, their own table and waiter and, most im-portantly, the company of one another. They quickly attracted other members you’ve heard of, including Alexander Woollcott, Edna Ferber, Franklin P. Adams, George S. Kaufman, Hey-wood Broun and Marc Con-nelly.

They were critics, most of them, sometimes quite vi-cious, often of each other. Their strong opinions and ideas often found their way to print – print being their

business – and infl uenced other writers, like Fitzgerald and Hemingway.

Harold Ross was a friend of the Round Table, and at this hotel he secured fund-ing for The New Yorker magazine, which made its debut in 1925. Algonquin guests still get a free copy upon arrival.

How did such a beehive start its buzz? Algonquin owner Frank Case began it all with his friendliness toward actors and writers. Some of his favorites even drank on the house. He at-tracted personalities like Douglas Fairbanks Sr., John Barrymore and H.L. Menck-en.

And he welcomed wom-en. Gertrude Stein, Mar-ian Anderson, Simone de Beauvoir, Helen Hayes and Eudora Welty all eventually made the scene.

Three Nobel laureates visited on a regular basis, including William Faulkner, who is said to have drafted his famous Nobel Prize ac-ceptance speech at the hotel in 1950.

I envy those dozen or so writers their 10 years of banter and booze, their daily breaks from the most solitary task in the world. I would love to have been a coaster beneath a chair leg when Dorothy Parker said something like: “If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the peo-ple he gave it to.”

Writers still stay at the Algonquin, of course, make pilgrimages to this Holy Land of wit and wicked hu-mor. And with a squint, a drink and a strong imagina-tion, one can return to the days of glory when there was romance to the sport of writing and camarade-rie within its ranks. Or, as Dorothy Parker wrote: “If I didn’t care for fun and such/I’d probably amount to much./But I shall stay the way I am/Because I do not give a damn.”

Ban on conjugal visits resisted

JACKSON — A Mem-phis-based civil rights group and a Mississippi prisoners’ advocacy group will lead a rally in Jackson against Missis-sippi Department of Cor-rections Commissioner Chris Epps’ decision to end conjugal visits for state inmates.

Last month, Epps an-nounced he would early this year stop the more than a century-old prac-tice of allowing conjugal visits for inmates.

Epps’ decision came after a state legislator said he was going to re-introduce a bill this leg-islative session to end conjugal visits.

The Clarion-Ledger reports the Mississippi Advocates for Prisoners group is also opposed to Epps’ decision and has started a petition drive. MAP is encouraging fam-ily members and other supporters to come out for the rally, which will be on Jan. 17.

Mississippi Advocates for Prisoners Director Kelly Muscolino said conjugal visits are not just for sex.

“They allow inmates to build a bond with their loved ones, provide them with an outlet for emotion, and build con-fidence in knowing that they are not forgotten and that they are loved,” Muscolino said.

Mississippi is now one of only six states to al-low conjugal visits, and the practice is forbidden in federal prisons.

Epps said Friday in a statement his decision

to end conjugal visits stands.

“Conjugal visits will not be allowed as of Feb. 1,” Epps said. “There are costs associated with the staff’s time, having to escort inmates to and from the location, supervising personal hygiene and the upkeep of the building. In ad-dition to the budgetary reasons, even though we provide contraception, women get pregnant and have to raise the child as a single parent.”

The practice of conju-gal visits in Mississippi has never been adopted by law, and a written policy wasn’t created un-til the 1980s. State gives money for disposal program

COFFEEVILLE — Yalo-busha County’s waste tire collection and dis-posal program will oper-ate in 2014 with extra money provided through a state grant.

WTVA-TV reports the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality awarded the county a grant of about $56,000 to continue the program.

The grant money comes from the state’s waste tire account which is funded by a fee charged on the wholesale sale of new motor vehicle tires sold in the state.

Nurse sentencedin clinic fraud case

JACKSON — A woman was sentenced on Mon-day to house arrest and probation for failing to report a crime at a Mis-sissippi cancer clinic that was shut down over unsafe practices and ac-cused of a multimillion-dollar fraud.

Courtney Michelle Young, a nurse at the clinic, was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Jackson to three years on probation, with the first three months on house arrest.

Brain dead girl moved from hospital

OAKLAND, Calif. — Acting with a court order, the family of a 13-year-old California girl declared brain dead after a tonsillectomy has had her taken from a California hospital to be cared for elsewhere, the family’s attorney says.

Jahi McMath was moved by a critical care team while attached to a ventilator but without a feeding tube, Chris-topher Dolan told The Associated Press.

She left from Chil-dren’s Hospital of Oakland in a private am-bulance shortly before 8 p.m. Sunday, Dolan said. Her destination was not immediately disclosed.

“It was a very tense situation,” said Dolan. “Everybody played by the rules.”

David Durand, the hospital’s Chief of Pedi-atrics, said the girl was released to the coro-ner. The coroner then released her into the custody of her mother, Nailah Winkfield, as per court order, Durand said in an email.

On Friday Alameda County Superior Court Judge Evelio Grillo said Jahi could be trans-ferred under an agree-ment with Children’s Hospital and the girl’s mother will be held accountable for devel-opments that could include Jahi going into cardiac arrest.

The Alameda County coroner’s office issued a death certificate for the girl Friday but said

the document is incom-plete because no cause of death has been de-termined pending an autopsy.

1 killed, 2 injuredin airplane crash

DENVER — A fiery plane crash at the Aspen airport Sunday afternoon killed one person and injured two others, one severely, Colorado authorities said.

Officials said the flight to the wealthy mountain refuge origi-nated in Mexico and all three aboard were pi-lots and Mexican men.

Alex Burchetta, direc-tor of operations for the Pitkin County Sheriff’s Office, identified the man who died as Ser-gio Carranza Brabata of Mexico. He did not release the names of the two injured, and he did not know where in Mexico the 54-year-old Brabata lived.

Burchetta said the plane went off the right side of the runway, flipped over and burst into flames.

“The injuries were traumatic in nature, but they were not thermal,” he said. “So the fire never reached inside the cabin as far as we can tell.”

Ginny Dyche, a spokeswoman for As-pen Valley Hospital, said the facility received two patients who were involved in the crash. She later said one pa-tient in fair condition and another in critical condition were trans-ferred elsewhere.

Peter Knudson, a spokesman for the Na-

tional Transportation Safety Board, confirmed the plane was a Cana-dair CL-600, a midsized private jet. The aircraft is registered to the Bank of Utah in Salt Lake City, according to Federal Aviation Admin-istration records.

Allen Kenitzer, an FAA spokesman, said the plane was headed from Tucson, Ariz., and crashed upon landing. Officials said the crash happened at 12:22 p.m. MST.

A plane with the same tail number took off at 6 a.m. MST from the airport in Toluca, a city 35 miles west of Mexico City, before stopping in Tucson, ac-cording to a Mexican federal official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press.

The official said the passengers aboard were three Mexican men. He declined to release their names, cit-ing security reasons.

High school rape convict released

CINCINNATI — A for-mer eastern Ohio high school football player has been released from a juvenile detention center less than a year after his conviction for raping a 16-year-old girl following an alcohol-fueled party.

WTOV-TV in Steuben-ville reported Sunday evening that Ma’Lik Richmond had been released. His attorney, Walter Madison, issued a statement saying the youth is “braced for the balance of his life.”

WASHINGTON — More than half of female Ma-rines in boot camp can’t do three pullups, the minimum standard that was supposed to take ef-fect with the new year, prompting the Marine Corps to delay the re-quirement, part of the process of equalizing physical standards to in-tegrate women into com-bat jobs.

The delay rekindled sharp debate in the mili-tary on the question of whether women have the physical strength for some military jobs, as service branches move toward opening thou-sands of combat roles to them in 2016.

Although no new timetable has been set on the delayed physi-cal requirement, Marine Corps Commandant Gen. James Amos wants training offi cials to “con-tinue to gather data and ensure that female Ma-rines are provided with the best opportunity to succeed,” Capt. Maureen Krebs, a Marine spokes-woman, said Thursday.

Starting with the new year, all female Marines were supposed to be able to do at least three pullups on their annual physical fi tness test and eight for a perfect score. The requirement was tested in 2013 on female recruits at Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, S.C., but only 45 percent of women met the minimum, Krebs said.

The Marines had hoped to institute the pullups on the belief that pullups require the mus-cular strength necessary

to perform common mil-itary tasks such as scal-ing a wall, climbing up a rope or lifting and carry-ing heavy munitions.

Offi cials felt there wasn’t a medical risk to putting the new standard into effect as planned across the service, but that the risk of losing re-cruits and hurting reten-tion of women already in the service was unac-ceptably high, she said.

Because the change is being put off, women will be able to choose which test of upper-body strength they will be graded on in their an-nual physical fi tness test. Their choices:

—Pullups, with three the minimum. Three is also the minimum for male Marines, but they need 20 for a perfect rat-ing.

—A fl exed-arm hang. The minimum is for 15 seconds; women get a perfect score if they last for 70 seconds. Men don’t do the hang in their test.

Offi cials said training for pullups can change a person’s strength, while training for the fl ex-arm hang does little to adapt muscular strength need-ed for military tasks

The delay on the stan-dard could be another wrinkle in the plan to begin allowing women to serve in jobs previously closed to them such as infantry, armor and ar-tillery units.

The decision to sus-pend the scheduled pull-up requirement “is a clear indication” that plans to move women into direct ground combat fi ghting teams will not work, said Elaine Donnelly, presi-dent of the conserva-

tive Center for Military Readiness and a critic of allowing women into in-fantry jobs.

“When offi cials claim that men and women are being trained the same, they are refer-ring to bare minimums, not maximum qualifi ca-tions that most men can meet but women can-not,” Donnelly wrote in an email to The Associ-ated Press. “Awarding gender-normed scores so that women can succeed lowers standards for all. Women will suffer more injuries and resentment they do not deserve, and men will be less prepared for the demands of direct ground combat.”

The military services are working to fi gure out how to move women into newly opened jobs and have been devising up-dated physical standards, training, education and other programs for thou-sands of jobs they must open Jan. 1, 2016, said Navy Lt. Cmdr. Nathan Christensen, a Defense Department spokesman. They must open as many jobs to women as possi-ble; if they decide to keep some closed, they must explain why.

Military brass has said repeatedly that physical standards won’t be low-ered to accommodate fe-male applicants. Success for women in training for the upcoming open-ings has come in fi ts and starts.

In fall 2012, only two female Marines volun-teered for the 13-week infantry offi cers training course at Quantico, Va., and both failed to com-plete it.

But the following fall, three Marines became

the fi rst women to grad-uate from the Corps’ en-listed infantry training school in North Caro-lina. They completed the same test standards as the men in the course, which included a 12-mile march with an 80-pound pack and various com-bat fi tness trials such as timed ammunition con-tainer lifts and tests that simulate running under combat fi re.

Offi cials had added specifi c training for fe-male recruits when the pullup requirement was announced in December 2012, and they came up with a workout program for women already serv-ing.

Military testing for physical skill and stami-na has changed over the decades with needs of the armed forces. Offi cials say the fi rst recorded history of Marine Corps physical fi tness tests, for example, was 1908 when President Theo-dore Roosevelt ordered that staff offi cers must ride horseback 90 miles and line offi cers walk 50 miles over a three-day period to pass. A test started in 1956 included chinups, pushups, broad jump, 50-yard duck wad-dle and running.

The fi rst test for wom-en was started in 1969: A 120-yard shuttle run, vertical jump, knee pushups, 600-yard run/walk and situps.

2 killed in weekend Laurel shootings

LAUREL — Authori-ties say two men were killed Friday night in shootings at a house in south Laurel.

WDAM-TV reports the two were shot multiple times while leaving the house on Woodlawn Drive at about 11 p.m.

Laurel police say 19-year-old Justin Curry died at the scene and 31-year-old Bennie Ow-ens died later at a local hospital.

Investigators say the two men were visiting friends at the time of the shooting.

No arrests have been made yet.

Police ask for leave for wounded officer

TUPELO — Tupelo po-lice want to donate un-used sick leave to the officer who was wound-ed during a deadly bank robbery.

Twenty-seven-year-old Officer Joseph Maher is out of the hospital. But Police Chief Bart Aguirre tells The North-east Mississippi Daily Journal he has probably not earned enough sick leave over five years to recover from his wound.

Aguirre says he and other longtime officers can spare some.

My boyhood best friend and mentor, Jaybird, was tight with his money. He believed that the Lord watches how His children spend it.

Once, when he scolded me for buying a useless toy, one that I would tire of quickly, he said, “You oughta be ashamed, boy. Don’t you know de Lawd gave you de ability to make money? Dat’s a gift! If you misuse dat gift by wasting yo’ money, which you earned the hard way — chopping cotton, you jes’ showing Him dat you

don’t ’preciate de gift, and He jes’ might take away yo’ ability to make mon-ey.”

Chopping cotton … what a hard job. Jaybird was the straw boss on my father’s Mississippi Delta cotton farm, and, unless the weather was rainy, he’d have his work crew, myself included, in the fi eld by sunup. Then, he’d assign everyone a row, some over a mile long, and say, “Awright, boys, start yo’ rows.”

At fi rst, I couldn’t keep up. After all, when Dad gave me to the old black man and instructed him

to teach me to work, I was only ten years old. For a while, Jaybird would stop chopping his row, get on mine, and help me catch up. But that didn’t last long. “You must tote yo’ own load in dis life,” he would often say. I soon learned to bend to the task, and keep up with the others.

Hard work was all that my best friend had ever known, and he seemed to love it. Wasting a day in inertial sloth, like wast-ing money, was anathema to him. From the time his feet hit the ground until it was too dark to see, he

was determined to get the most out of every day.

Jaybird often devised ways to make those long days go by faster. One way was to start on the side of a fi eld where the rows were longest, and since few fi elds were rectangu-lar, the rows began to get shorter at some point.

When they did, Jaybird would say, “Boys, we git-tin’ in de short rows” — a small note of optimism, but optimism nonethe-less. To this day, while struggling through dif-fi cult tasks, I always say, “I’m getting in the short rows,” when I begin to see

the light at the end of the tunnel.

So many of Jaybird’s teachings still motivate me. In reality, motiva-tion was what he was all about. He wanted me to keep in mind always that motivation generates mo-mentum, and momentum generates achievement and success.

I teach that lesson to my college students. If I can motivate them to master the fundamentals — to learn that little things make big things happen — momentum galvanizes them. Then, they face and overcome the diffi culties

of earning an education, and have a much better chance of succeeding as responsible, productive members of society.

As I begin this new year, when I enter my class-rooms, I’ll remind myself of what that beloved old master teacher always said: Start yo’ rows.

Best friend was tight with his money

BY JIMMY REEDColumnist

MINNEAPOLIS — Frigid, dense air swirled across much of the U.S. on Monday, forcing some cities and their residents into hibernation while others layered up and carried on despite a dan-gerous cold that broke decades-old records.

Wind chill warnings stretched from Montana to Alabama. For a big chunk of the Midwest, the subzero temperatures moved in behind another winter wallop: more than a foot of snow and high winds that made travel-ing treacherous. Offi cials closed schools in cities including Chicago, St. Louis and Milwaukee and warned residents to stay indoors and avoid the frigid cold altogether.

The forecast is extreme: Wind chills were expected to drop as low as negative 55 Monday night in In-ternational Falls, Minn., and rebound to minus 25 to minus 35 on Tues-day. Farther south, the wind chill is expected to hit negative 50 in Chicago

and minus 35 in Detroit.School systems and day

cares shut down as a pre-caution from the Dakotas to Maryland. But whether residents chose to stay home or head outside appeared to have less to do with the mercury and more with conditioning.

Emeric Dwyer of St. Paul wore only a London Fog trenchcoat and light scarf to protect himself from morning tempera-tures that got down to mi-nus 20 in the Twin Cities. The 30-year-old was just glad his car started.

“It made a grinding noise I never heard be-fore. But it started and got us here. Not too much to complain about,” said Dwyer, who is originally from Duluth in the north-ern part of the state.

“In Duluth it’s always cold,” he said.

But it hasn’t been this cold for almost two de-cades in many parts of the country. The Nation-al Weather Service said the temperature sank to 16 degrees below zero at Chicago’s O’Hare Inter-national Airport, two de-grees lower than the re-cord for Jan. 6. Weekend

snowfall at the airport to-taled more than 11 inches — the most since a Febru-ary 2011 storm that shut down the city’s famed Lake Shore Drive.

In Indiana, where many roads were rendered im-passable because of snow and wind, authorities had a simple message: stay home.

“I know the roads look clear, the sun’s out and it all looks nice,” Indianap-olis Mayor Greg Ballard said Monday. “But it’s still minus 40 in wind chill — deadly temperatures. So we want to be very, very careful.”

Ballard issued a travel ban for the city, making it illegal for anyone to drive except for emergencies or to seek shelter, until noon Monday. But he wants schools and businesses to remain closed another day until the worst of the severe cold passes.

Much of Indiana was blanketed in about a foot of snow Sunday, and many of the state’s schools, businesses and municipal offi ces were closed Monday. Wind chills through Tuesday could reach 45 degrees

below zero, according to the National Weather Service.

The Legislature post-poned the opening day of its 2014 session, and the state appellate courts, including the Indiana Su-preme Court, said they would be closed.

Many other cities came to a virtual standstill. In St. Louis, where more than 10 inches of snow fell, the Gateway Arch, St. Louis Art Museum and St. Louis Zoo were part of the seemingly endless list of closed facilities. Shopping malls and movie theaters closed, too. Even Hidden Valley Ski Resort, the re-gion’s only ski area, shut down.

Further north, those more accustomed to ex-treme winter weather kept moving, even if just a bit slower than usual.

Between a heater that barely works and the drafty windows that in-vite the cold air into his home, Jeffery Davis de-cided he’d be better off sitting in a downtown Chicago doughnut shop for three hours Mon-day until it was time to go to work. He threw on

two pairs of pants, two t-shirts, “at least three jack-ets,” two hats, a pair of gloves, the “thickest socks you’d probably ever fi nd” and boots, and trudged to the train stop in his South Side neighborhood that took him to within a few blocks of the library where he works.

“I never remember it ever being this cold,” said Davis, 51. “I’m fl abber-gasted.”

Elnur Toktombetov, a Chicago taxi driver, awoke at 2:30 a.m. Mon-day anticipating a busy day. By 3:25 a.m. he was on the road, armed with hot tea and doughnuts. An hour into his shift, his Toyota’s windows were still coated with ice on the inside.

“People are really not comfortable with this weather,” Toktombetov said. “They’re really hap-py to catch the cab. And I notice they really tip well.”

In downtown Chicago, a commuter train hit a “bumping post” as it pulled into a station, the second such accident of the day. Metra spokes-man Michael Gillis said

six passengers were taken to a hospital with minor injuries Monday after the train hit the post at the end of a platform. A less serious incident oc-curred at the same station around 6:15 a.m., but no passengers were injured.

Continuing a decades-old practice, Chicago Transit Authority was handing out fare cards to social service agencies to be distributed to the homeless so they could ride buses and trains to stay out of the cold.

More than 40,000 homes and businesses in Indiana, 16,000 in Il-linois and 2,000 in Mis-souri were without power early Monday. Indianap-olis spokesman Marc Lot-ter said emergency crews accompanied about 350 people to shelters.

Southern states were bracing for possible re-cord temperatures too, with single-digit highs ex-pected Tuesday in Geor-gia and Alabama.

Temperatures plunged into the 20s early Mon-day in north Georgia, the frigid start of dangerously cold temperatures for the fi rst part of the week.

Subzero ‘polar vortex’ pushes frigid air across US

BY RICK CALLAHAN AND STEVE KARNOWSKIAssociated Press

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. — Paul Gregoline lies in bed, awaiting the helper who will get him up, bathed and groomed. He is 92 years old, has Alzheimer’s disease and needs a hand with nearly every task the day brings. When the aide arrives, though, he doesn’t look so different from the client himself — bald and bespectacled.

“Just a couple of old geezers,” jokes Warren Manchess, the 74-year-old caregiver.

As demand for se-nior services provided by nurses’ aides, home health aides and other such workers grows with the aging of baby boom-ers, so are those profes-sions’ employment of other seniors. The new face of America’s network of caregivers is increas-ingly wrinkled.

Among the overall population of direct-care workers, 29 percent are projected to be 55 or old-er by 2018, up from 22 percent a decade earlier, according to an analysis by the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute, or PHI, a New York-based nonprofi t advocating for workers caring for the country’s elderly and dis-abled.

In some segments of the workforce, including personal and home care aides, those 55 and older are the largest single age demographic.

“I think people are sur-prised that this workforce is as old as it is,” said Abby Marquand, a researcher at PHI. “There’s often people who have chronic disease themselves who

have to muster up the energy to perform these really physically taxing caregiving needs.”

Manchess came out of retirement to work for Home Instead Se-nior Care after caring for his mother-in-law, who, too, had Alzheimer’s and whom he regarded as his hero. The experience, though taxing, inspired his new career.

Three days a week, he arrives at Gregoline’s house, giving the retired electrician’s wife a needed break. He carefully shaves and dresses his client, prepares breakfast and lunch, cleans the house and quickly remedies any accidents. He does the laundry and swaddles Gregoline in a warm tow-el from the dryer, reads him the sports page to keep him updated on his beloved Bears and some-times pulls out dominoes or puzzles to pass the time.

Gregoline is rather sedate this afternoon, relaxing in his favorite chair while occasionally offering glimpses of his trademark wit. Asked if he remembered anything about the Army, he says: “It was a bitch!” Offered the chance to go out-side, he responds: “No! I’ll freeze my ass off out there!” Describing an abrasive personality of long ago, he offers: “He followed me around like a bad conscience.”

Manchess has worked for Gregoline for about a year, and the men are at ease around each other. Past aides to Gregoline have been in their 20s, but Manchess says he thinks his age is an asset.

“Age can be an advan-tage,” he said, pointing to the common conversa-tion points and life expe-rience, including his own health troubles and aches and pains that can come with age.

“We hit it off pretty well. Maybe I didn’t seem to be too much out of the ordinary.”

Around the country, se-nior service agencies are seeing a burgeoning share of older workers. About one-third of Home In-stead’s 65,000 caregivers are over 60.

Visiting Angels, anoth-er in-home care provider, says about 30 percent of its workers are over 50. And at least one network, Seniors Helping Seniors, is built entirely on the model of hiring older caregivers.

Like most occupations, some of the growth in older caregivers is driven by the overall aging of the population and the trend of people working later in life.

But with incredibly high rates of turnover and

a constant need for more workers, home care agen-cies have also shown a willingness to hire older people new to the fi eld who have found a tough job market as they try to supplement their retire-ment income.

The jobs are among the fastest-growing positions in the U.S., but are also notoriously physically demanding, with low pay and high rates of injury. Manchess has had spi-nal surgery and says he’s especially careful when vacuuming. He’s not sure how many years he’ll be able to continue this work, and he acknowl-edges it can be tough.

“Halfway through my shift, I’m a little weary myself,” he said. “It takes its toll.”

Manchess had worked as an Air Force pilot, then in real estate, then as a school bus driver, before becoming a professional caregiver.

As Gregoline content-edly nibbles on his ham sandwich, Manchess wraps up his shift, turn-

ing refl ective when con-sidering his life’s careers.

“I think this is about

as rewarding, if not more rewarding, than any of them,” he said.

A New New Year!As we stand on the brink of another new year, let us think of the many opportunities and struggles it will provide. Let us think of those who will name the name of Christ in baptism, and let us work to help them make the most important decision of their lives. Let us think of those who will come back to the Lord, and let us pray for them and encourage them in every way for good. Let us think of those among us who will leave this world of sin and sorrow for the bright and sunny shores of eternity, where no sin or sorrow may be found, and let us learn from their godly examples. Let us also think of what we will use the new year for..Will We Use It For Gaining A Better Knowledge of God’s Word?There are many good things for us to learn in life, but none begin to compare with the value of a knowledge of the blessed Word of God. It will go with us through all other educational endeavors, it will accompany us through our working years, it will be there for the birth and rearing of our children, it will be there for us in our sickness, even going with us to the grave, and it will stand as a witness to our faithfulness in the after awhile. May we determine to spend some time each day of this new year studying the Bible. May it be of greater importance to us than all other pursuits.Will We Use It To Mature Spiritually?Will we apply the things we are taught in the Bible to our lives and thereby set a better example before others? Will we be diligent in attendance, showing all the world that there is no place on earth we would rather be than in the assembly of the saints worshipping God. Will we put to practice what the Bible teaches?Will We Use It To Tell Someone Of Jesus Christ?Remember, our family, friends and neighbors are rushing headlong into judgment. Have we told them what God requires of them in order to be saved? We see them daily, and would probably do anything on earth for them, but have we told them how to get to heaven? Is it really so diffi cult and risky to speak a word in the interest of their souls (Prov. 11:30)?Yes, the ringing in of a brand new year is at hand; and with it the resolutions. Perhaps you have collected too much clutter. You have resolved to rid yourself of that unsettled feeling you experience when you enter your home. What will you do with the excess ... throw it away ... give it away ... have a yard sale?You may be feeling the same confusion in your life. Today’s world is a barrage of input that seems to clutter our very souls. How will you decide what is worth retaining? Ben Jonson, renowned seventeenth century dramatist, poet, and wit, advised, “Weigh the meaning and look not at the words.” We must prioritize this information. What is more important to know in order to live a useful, peaceful, and joyous life? God’s Word should be of utmost consideration when we establish these priorities, for our understanding of God’s Word sets the stage for our life. When we follow His advice, everything else falls into place. We know what is important and what is not. The result is a sense of peace and joy, even amid the confusion of life. In Romans 14:19 we read, “Let us then pursue what makes for peace...” Won’t you begin this year with worship in God’s House. It is the best resolution of them all. Welcome to Northside. Read your Bible.

Today

Back in the black?

Many chipmakers are struggling as consumer demand has shifted away from PCs and toward smartphones and tablets.

Micron Technol-ogy has benefited from prices for memory chips and the acquisition last summer of mobile phone and tablet memory maker Elipida Memory. Wall Street expects that Micron will turn a profit in its first fiscal quarter, bouncing back from a loss in the same period a year ago. Results are due out today.

Failing grades?

Wall Street expects Apollo Education Group’s latest quarterly earnings will be down from a year earlier.

The for-profit education company and operator of the University of Phoenix and other schools has been struggling with shrinking enrollment in response to tighter regulation. Investors will be looking for signs that student enrollment picked up during the September-November quarter. Apollo reports fiscal first-quarter results today.

Deficit watch

The Commerce Department reports today its tally of the nation’s trade gap for November.

The trade deficit shrank in October to $40.6 billion. The nation’s energy boom helped lift overall exports to an all-time high of $192.7 billion. Economists project that the trade gap narrowed in November. A smaller trade deficit can boost economic growth. Source: FactSet

Uneven reboundAfter years of declining prices, homeowners across the country are enjoying a seller’s market.

A combination of steady job growth, rising-but-still-low mortgage interest rates and, in many markets, a limited inventory of homes, has driven prices steadily higher.

Home prices climbed 12.5 percent in October from a year earlier, but remained about 17 percent below their April 2006 peak, according to real estate data provider CoreLogic.

Although many metropolitan areas are benefiting from the economic and market factors driving home value gains, the degree to which homes prices are rebounding primarily hinges on how hard the market was hit in the downturn.

When the housing market collapsed, markets such as Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego didn’t see their home values decline as much as foreclosure hotbeds, such as the California metropolitan areas of Sacramento and Riverside, or Las Vegas. As a result, the markets that didn't fall as sharply haven’t rebounded as strongly this past year, says Jed Kolko, chief economist at

real estate data analysis firm Trulia.“The severity of the housing bust is much

more important than recent job growth in explaining why some markets rebounded this year,” Kolko says. “As prices normalize, though, local job growth should drive home price gains more.”

Home values Some of the markets hit hardest during the foreclosure crisis that hit in 2008 posted big gains in home values in 2013.

Difficulty Level 1/04

Dear Annie: When I was a freshman in high school, I became friends with “Agnes,” who was (like me) something of a social outcast. Agnes still considers me to be her best friend. That was 10 years ago.

We have both grown up to be very different people. I am repelled by Agnes’ lifestyle of promis-cuity and high-risk behav-iors. Although she is free with praise and is loyal in an odd sort of way, she is incredibly narcissistic and often condescending. Add to that a volatile and sometimes violent tem-per, and she is a person I no longer want in my life. Still, we have a history. When she says I am “the only one who has stuck with her,” I feel a respon-sibility to maintain the friendship. I am also fond of her 5-year-old son.

I don’t want to be dis-honest by pretending that her decisions, her man-ner and her lifestyle don’t bother me. It seems dis-honorable. But if I tell her any of this, I know it will lead to a nasty confronta-tion. The truth about my feelings would crush her. She considers friendship and loyalty to be sacred and would take my disap-proval as a betrayal of her trust. Should I tell her the truth for my sake or con-tinue the deception for hers? -- Confl icted

Dear Confl icted: It de-pends on what you want. If your goal is not to see Agnes anymore, go ahead and let loose. People out-grow friendships all the time. You don’t have to

maintain this one, al-though it means you would not be around to show her son what a sta-ble person looks like. You also could slowly make yourself less available to Agnes so there is no con-frontation at all while the relationship withers. But a true friend would tell Agnes gently and kind-ly that you are worried about her. In turn, Agnes, while not pleased, would accept your concern and not cut you out of her son’s life.

Dear Annie: My hus-band and I have been married for two years, and we have been togeth-er for 16. This is my third marriage and his second. He is 61, and I am 58.

I work out of the home, and he is now semi-re-tired. I would appreciate some help with cooking or cleaning, but he always says I wouldn’t be happy with the way he does it. I’ve told him this is a cop-out.

I honestly do not care how well he does, only that there is effort and validation of my feelings. I’m exasperated. We get along great otherwise, but he is such a horse’s butt about this.

Just yesterday, he made himself a sandwich for dinner and never even asked whether I wanted anything. He doesn’t pressure me to cook. I do

it because I know he likes to have dinner and I enjoy cooking. But I would cer-tainly never eat in front of him and not offer some-thing.

Am I being overly sen-sitive? Is it too much to ask for help with cleaning and cooking or to have my feelings taken seriously? -- Hurt and Exasperated

Dear Hurt: We think your husband is a little lazy and has been trained to be waited on. He needs to step up and be more of a full partner.

Separate the household chores and assign specifi c tasks for each of you. If you enjoy cooking, you could do more of that, and he could do more cleaning. Ask what he’d prefer. If he doesn’t follow through, do NOT pick up after him.

Or, if you can afford it, hire someone.

Dear Annie: “Ms. Bit” said she was having trou-ble reaching certain body parts to clean them. I suggest she upgrade her toilet to a bidet toilet that provides a warm water bath and a drying fan for the parts in question. My elderly parents had one installed years ago, and it served them well. -- A Fan of Being Clean

ARIES (March 21-April 19). If you see it every day, it’s not strange -- and if it’s not strange, then it can’t be beautiful. This is why updating your style or changing the way you relate to people will be worth the effort and expense.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A messy room and an orga-nized mind seldom go togeth-er, though the untidy person in your life will claim they do. Use negative examples as inspira-tion to get your own room/act/head together.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If you accused someone close to you of being out of touch with what you need, you would be right. But what good would that do? Instead, don’t make any-one guess. Say what you need.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are the people who say, “What can I do to help?” and there are the people who just get in there and help. The problem is pretty obvious now, so join the latter category.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When the conversation gets

awkward or boring, you will be aware enough to change the subject. You don’t think of this as a talent, but you should. Your astute socializing will save the day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Of all the things you compare, comparing yourself to another person is the most unfair. You know all of your fl aws and shortcomings; whereas, they are doing their best to mask theirs.

Focus exclusively on being your best you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Go down the list of your many blessings, and remind yourself that your life right now is pretty great. If you don’t appreciate your assets, it’s impossible to present them in such a way that others will.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be meeting new people. The tone you set will be a start-ing place. If you start out too seriously, people will be fright-ened of what’s next. That’s why it’s best to keep things light while making a fi rst impression.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). To manage the full range of your emotions, you must fi rst embrace the full range of your emotions. Losing your temper doesn’t always mean you lose the situation. Some effectively use temper outbursts as a tac-tic.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Change occurs because you focus all of your energy on building a new way of doing things.

You don’t have to waste time tearing the old way down. It will crumble on its own.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If it is at all possible to lower your defenses while rais-ing your standards, you’ll do it. You have excellent taste, and what’s even better is that you don’t feel like you have to con-stantly prove that to people.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you do it fi rst, you’re the lead-er. Those who merely instruct others to do it fi rst may have the title of “leader,” but the one who will be respected and followed is the one who did it fi rst.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are happily married and will celebrate 15 years of mar-riage next year. We have a 5-year-old daughter. Our dilem-ma is whether or not we should have another child.

I’m 38 and my husband is 40. We have become comfortable with the fact that our daughter is getting more independent. We plan on doing a lot of travel-ing, and I will change jobs after I complete school. We are not sure about starting over with a baby.

We are doing OK fi nancially, and if we have a second child, it would have to be within the next year, while I fi nish my classes and can be home to be with the baby. Our daughter is well-ad-justed, and we plan on putting her in activities such as dance and gymnastics.

We would like your opinion, and also to hear from parents who had only one child, as well as people who were raised with-out a sibling. – MAYBE ONLY ONE IN GEORGIA

DEAR MAYBE ONLY ONE: If you are considering enlarging your family only so your daughter will have a sibling, I don’t recom-mend it. What the six-year age difference means is that your children will not grow up “togeth-er.” By the time the younger one is starting high school, the older one will be in college and gone.

Even when they are clos-er in age, it’s no guarantee that siblings will be close.

I cannot – and should not – decide this for you. I am throwing your ques-tion open to my readers

and will share their opinions with you. However, I’m sure they will be varied.

DEAR ABBY: I am gener-ally a conservative person. My 17-year-old son, “Leo,” asked for an ear piercing when he was 13. I wasn’t sure whether I liked the kind of impression it made, but because it was only one piercing, I agreed on the condition that he would stop at one hole.

When Leo was 15, he begged to have dreadlocks. Thinking it was a phase, I allowed it even though I wasn’t thrilled. He has since cut off the dreads, but now says he wants an eyebrow piercing.

My son is a loving, wonderful, happy kid. He’s active in school, well-liked, and an excellent stu-dent in an advanced academic program. I couldn’t honestly think of a good reason to say no, even though this piercing freaks

me out. I sense that Leo wants to do more piercings, but he’s re-spectful enough to wait awhile.

My question is, what is a good reason to NOT agree to more piercings? Every argument I’ve thought of -- unsightly, unsani-tary, makes the wrong impres-sion – is rather thin.

My 12-year-old daughter wants to dye her hair purple. I’m saying no, but still have no good reason for that, either. Am I just too old-fashioned? – NOT-WITH-IT MOM IN MACCABIM, ISRAEL

DEAR NOT-WITH-IT MOM: Tell your son he was born with a perfect body. When you agreed to the ear piercing, it was on the condition that there would be only one piercing, and you ex-pect him to keep his part of the bargain. If he asks for a further explanation, tell him it’s because he has enough holes in his head.

As to your daughter, remem-ber it’s only hair and it will grow out. If this is her only form of re-bellion, consider yourself lucky.

As to your being “too old-fash-ioned,” it’s a mother’s JOB to be old-fashioned. Keep up the good work.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. —Ten-nessee may be starting its customary late-season surge a little earlier than usual.

The Volunteers (9-4) carry a three-game winning streak into Tuesday’s Southeastern Conference opener at LSU (9-3). Now the Vols need to prove they can win on the road, which has been a prob-lem lately.

“We’re playing good on both sides of the ball,” said Tennessee guard Jordan McRae, the reigning SEC player of the week. “That’s just us trusting each other, moving the ball, making extra passes and things like that.”

Tennessee expects to have freshman guard Robert Hubbs III back after an in-jured left shoulder caused

him to miss a 98-51 victory over Tusculum on Saturday. Tennessee coach Cuonzo Martin said Hubbs prac-ticed Sunday and should play Tuesday.

The Vols are 35-9 at home and 7-17 in true road games during Martin’s three-year coaching tenure, though they won four of their fi nal fi ve SEC road games last season. In the Vols’ only two true road games this season, they fell 67-63 at Xavier and 70-61 to No. 6 Wichita State, which was ranked 12th at the time of their Dec. 14 meeting.

“I talk to the guys all the time (that) it’s just a different building, that’s all,” Martin said. “The rims, the court, ev-erything’s still the same. It’s just a different building. Our approach doesn’t change.”

Tennessee’s had a habit of

slow starts and fast fi nishes. The Vols started 8-10 and ended up 19-15 in 2011-12. They fi nished 20-13 after an 11-10 start last season. They won only six of their fi rst 10 games this year and held a team meeting after a 65-58 loss to North Carolina State.

The Vols haven’t lost since.“The meeting was more or

less for us to tell each other how we felt about things,” McRae said. “Players hear-ing things from coaches is one thing. If you can have one of your teammates say, ‘Jordan, you need to do this better,’ ‘Jordan, you need to do that better,’ and you have the whole team there, I think it helps you out as a player, hearing it from one of your friends, one of the people you’re with all the time. I just think it was just us holding

each other accountable.”Tennessee has shot 50

percent or better in each of its last three games and now faces an LSU team that leads the SEC in fi eld-goal percent-age defense (.375). The Tigers are coming off a 74-70 home loss to Rhode Island.

“We can’t come out fl at like we did,” LSU guard Anthony Hickey said after the Rhode Island game. “If we come out fl at, we will get beat every time. It catches up with you at the end of the game. It is all about starting early and tak-ing care of business early.”

Tennessee could be benefi t-ing from a change in Martin’s approach.

Martin said he generally hasn’t been big on statisti-cal analysis because he’s “al-

Associated PressGAINESVILLE, Fla. — Florida

linebacker Ronald Powell is leaving school early and entering the NFL draft.

Powell, a 6-foot-4, 244-pound ju-nior from Moreno Valley, Calif., was the nation’s top high school recruit in 2010. He missed the entire 2012 season after twice tearing the ante-rior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

He returned to play in 11 games last season, leading the team with four sacks. He fi nished his college career with 84 tackles and 11 sacks.

Coach Will Muschamp says “it’s been well documented the hard-ships he has had to overcome and he has always kept a positive attitude.”

Powell is the third Florida player to leave school early, joining cor-nerbacks Loucheiz Purifoy and Marcus Roberson. Defensive tackle Dominique Easley, who could have returned for another season, also turned pro.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Bret Bielema put together one of his best recruiting pitches while trying to convince Arkansas defensive end Trey Flowers to return for his senior season.

Bielema’s efforts paid off when Flowers announced on Monday that he will return for his fi nal season with the Razorbacks.

The 6-foot-4, 243-pound Flowers, who led the Razorbacks with 13.5 tackles for losses last season, says he received a third-round grade from the NFL’s draft advisory com-mittee.

However, the Alabama native hopes to improve on that grade a year from now and Arkansas rebound from a 3-9 record in Bielema’s fi rst season.

“I just have faith in this team,” Flowers said. “I’ve got faith in, you know, what the coaches are trying to build, and I feel like we’ve got a lot of guys on this team with a lot of talent and a lot of guys that’s hungry to make it happen.”

Flowers was a second-team All-Southeastern Conference selection last season, fi nishing with 44 tack-les, fi ve sacks and three forced fum-bles. He’s appeared in 36 games, making 26 starts in three seasons.

Bielema said he met with Flow-ers and his parents as far back as last spring to discuss his draft pros-pects, and he said the conversations

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Mis-souri needs replacements at quarterback and for its pass rush. After matching the school record with 12 wins capped by a Cotton Bowl tri-umph, nobody doubts coach Gary Pinkel is up for the task.

The move to the SEC stopped looking like a mis-take several months ago. Now, Missouri is a program to be reckoned with, even though there’ll be seven new starters on defense next fall and many of the top contribu-tors on offense won’t be back, either.

After matching the school record for victories set in 2007, the Tigers (12-2) ap-pear to have the depth to reload without the likes of James Franklin, all-American Michael Sam and Kony Ealy.

“These guys came out, came back in January, they just kind of reset the stan-dards for who we are, what we’re about,” Pinkel said.

The debut SEC season in

2012 was an injury-plagued, 5-7 downer, prompting spec-ulation about Pinkel’s future and the school’s readiness for the country’s top football con-ference. Missouri was picked to fi nish sixth in the SEC East.

The East champions im-pressed from the start, home and away, with a 7-0 start. The SEC championship game loss to Auburn was the only real stumble.

A total of 20 players on the two-deep roster for the Cot-ton Bowl have at least two years of eligibility remain-ing. That’ll help compensate for the loss of a handful of likely NFL draft picks led by Ealy in the fi rst round, with cornerback E.J. Gaines and offensive tackle Justin Britt projected to go later on.

Redshirt freshman Maty Mauk produced three victo-ries while Franklin was in-jured and had a nice cameo against Oklahoma State, too, throwing a touchdown pass. He fi nished with 11 TD pass-es and a better passer rat-ing than Franklin and enters

spring practice as the clear favorite for the job ahead of freshman Eddie Printz.

Tailback is in capable hands with Russell Hansbrough and Marcus Murphy if Henry Jo-sey decides to enter his name in the NFL draft after a huge comeback season.

“There’s not always one guy you can count on,” Josey said. “You can count on everyone.”

Josey will consult with Pinkel and his grandmother, who raised him since infancy but couldn’t attend the bowl game due to fl u-like symp-toms. Ealy is projected as a mid- to late fi rst-round pick by many mock drafts after going “from boy to man” at Missouri, but there aren’t any running backs who fi gure to go early.

Josey was all-Big 12 in 2011 but was off the fi eld nearly two years after wrecking his left knee. Now he’s just the second player in school his-tory with a pair of 1,000-yard seasons, joining fellow Cotton Bowl standout Tony Temple.

“Remarkably, he’s a better

player now,” Pinkel said.Shane Ray, whose 73-yard

fumble return was the Cotton Bowl clincher, is among the defensive linemen returning along with Markus Golden and redshirt freshman Har-old Brantley. Sophomore Kentrell Brothers was the only linebacker to start every game and both specialists re-turn.

Ray fed on Oklahoma State bulletin-board material prompted by Missouri’s de-fensive collapse against Au-burn.

“They’re just going to go back to the drawing board and think about who they talk to next time,” Ray said. “To say our linebackers were just above average, our defensive line was just pass rushers — we felt total disrespected from that.”

AUSTIN, Texas — Char-lie Strong talked about being tough and winning champi-onships. That is exactly what Texas fans wanted to hear from their new football coach.

There’s little doubt he can deliver the fi rst. The second part will determine whether he can revive a dormant pro-gram back and push it back among the national elite where the Longhorns are des-perately longing to be.

“It’s time to put the pro-gram back on the national stage,” Strong said Monday at his introductory news confer-ence. “The mentality is always going to be mental and physi-cal toughness ... We will be a hardnosed football team.”

That’s the reputation Strong brings to Texas, which has fl oundered since playing for the 2009 national champion-ship. Four seasons of at least

four losses and no Big 12 titles ended with Mack Brown exit-ing after 16 years, and Texas turning to the coach who led Louisville to a 23-3 mark and two bowl wins the last two seasons.

Strong also had a reputa-tion of being uncomfortable with the media, but with his wife and two daughters sit-ting in the front row watching him, he breezed through his 45-minute news conference with smiles and jokes before ending with the trademark “Hook’em Horns” hand signal for the cameras.

“Let’s go win football games,” Strong said. “Let’s go win championships.”

The 53-year-old Strong clearly has some of the same pages from Brown’s play-book. He embraced the legacy of Texas’s football tradition when he entered the room and hugged Edith Royal, the widow of former Longhorns

coach Darrell Royal who won national titles in 1963 and 1969 and a share of a third in 1970.

And just like Brown did when he arrived in 1997, Strong made a point of em-bracing Texas high school coaches and his commitment to recruiting the state’s best players.

“We will recruit with fi re, recruit with passion,” Strong said, adding he wants to “close the border” to out-of-state programs.

Brown, whose last game was Texas’ loss to Oregon in the Holiday Bowl, did not attend the news conference. Strong said he spoke to Brown over the weekend and assured him he would be welcome around the program.

But he also told Brown: “You ran your program, I have to run mine.”

Strong said Brown left the program in good shape, even

if it hasn’t won in recent years like Texas expects to. The Longhorns last won the Big 12 in 2009. Their last national championship was in 2005.

“The bricks are there,” Strong said. “I just need to put another brick on top of it.”

Although his contract must still be approved by the school’s board of regents, Strong was offered a fi ve-year contract with an annual salary of about $5 million. Strong dismissed suggestions that Texas may have courted other coaches before offering him the job.

“I could have been the 15th choice,” Strong said. “And I’m still so happy to be the coach here.”

Strong also acknowledged this historical signifi cance be-hind him taking the job: He is the fi rst African-American head coach of a men’s sport at

MIAMI — A punchless of-fense in the fi nal two games kept the Miami Dolphins out of the postseason, and they’ll have a new play-caller in 2014.

Offensive coordinator Mike Sherman was fi red Monday, the fi rst change by the team since the holiday collapse. Coach Joe Philbin defended Sherman the day after the sea-son, but owner Stephen Ross was expected to demand some sort of shake-up following the dismal fi nish.

Sherman joined the Dol-phins when Philbin was hired two years ago, and the two have been close for more than 30 years. But this season Sherman’s unit ranked 27th in the NFL in yards, allowed a franchise-record 58 sacks and

scored once in its fi nal 24 pos-sessions.

The Dolphins (8-8) would have made the playoffs if they had won one of their fi nal two games against the Bills and Jets. Instead, they were beaten by a combined score of 39-7.

Other changes in Philbin’s staff are possible, and offen-sive line coach Jim Turner’s status remains in doubt. The line was the focus of a bully-ing scandal that mushroomed at midseason and left the Dol-phins without two starters, and the NFL has yet to release a report on its investigation into the case.

Philbin thanked Sherman for his contributions in a brief statement announcing the fi r-ing.

“Mike has been a mentor to me throughout my coaching

career, dating back to 1979,” Philbin said. “He is a man of great integrity, dedicated to his family, his team, his play-ers and his profession. On be-half of the entire Miami Dol-phins organization I want to wish Mike and his family the very best in the future.”

Sherman has a six-year re-lationship with quarterback Ryan Tannehill dating to their days at Texas A&M, where Sherman was Tannehill’s head coach. Tannehill won the Dolphins’ starting job in training camp as a rookie in 2012 and showed consider-able progress this year until the fi nal two games, when he played poorly.

“Coach Sherman and I have a great relationship,” Tan-nehill said in a statement re-leased by the Dolphins. “He

has made signifi cant contribu-tions to the Dolphin organiza-tion, and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to play for him for the last six years. I learned so much about football and life in that time, and for that I am forever grateful.”

While Tannehill threw for 3,913 yards and 24 scores this season, Sherman’s play-calling came into question be-cause of the team’s pass-run imbalance. Miami passed the ball 65 percent of the time, third-highest in the NFL, and had games where they rushed for 2, 14, 20 and 22 yards.

The Dolphins have missed the playoffs fi ve years in a row and haven’t won a postseason game since 2000. Philbin is 15-17 in his fi rst head-coach-ing job.

Sherman fired; new play-caller for Dolphins in 2014

ways been a guy to go by what my eyes see,” but he’s breaking down the numbers more this sea-

son. He’s studied which lineups were on the fl oor during hot stretches and cold spells.

“This has probably been the fi rst year that

I’ve spent a lot of hours and time on statistics and numbers and lineups,” Martin said. “I’ve never been a guy that’s really focused on (stats) outside

of the basics, but just the lineups that we have in the game, who’s playing well together, sometimes those numbers are cor-rect.”

continued throughout Arkansas’ diffi cult sea-son — a year in which the school went winless in the SEC for the fi rst time since joining the league in 1992.

Razorbacks strength coach Ben Herbert and Bielema fl ew to Flowers’ home in Alabama last week, with the permis-

sion of athletic director Jeff Long, to discuss what they had heard back from the NFL with Flowers and his parents.

“One of the things I’ve learned during my time as a head coach is these decisions are life chang-ers and game changers,” Bielema said. “What I try to do is be up front and honest with his parents as well as the young man

that we’re dealing with.”Arkansas is still with-

out a defensive line coach after Charlie Patridge left last month to behind the head coach at Florida Atlantic. Bielema said it could be next week before a new coach is named, and Flowers said the loss of his position coach was a concern while deciding whether to return or not.

“It crossed my mind,

but you know in high school I had like four dif-ferent coaches in all my four years,” Flowers said. “So, adapting to a differ-ent scheme, a different style of coaching, is just something to learn. ... I feel like it’s an advantage on me, because even if I did go to the (NFL), or when I go to the league next year, I’ll have to adapt.”

road conference tests at South Carolina, Florida, Tennessee and Texas A&M. The pre-SEC slate includes 12-win Central Florida, coming off a Fi-esta Bowl victory over

Baylor, plus Toledo was a handful last season and opening opponent South Dakota State was in the FCS playoffs.

The 61-year-old Pinkel is 102-63 in 13 seasons at Missouri, passing leg-endary Don Faurot for

fi rst on the school’s ca-reer win list at the Cotton Bowl.

“I want to continue to build a program,” Pinkel said. “We’ve got great challenges ahead of us. It’s a gauntlet schedule, but I’m very honored,

very honored to be the winningest coach in Mis-souri history.”

The fi re is still there.“When you win ’em,

it’s great,” Pinkel said. “When you lose ’em, it just tears your guts out as a competitor.”

Texas.“People look at it lot as

me being a minority. I’m a football coach,” Strong said. “This is a historical day. There’s always going to be a fi rst somewhere.”

Strong did not want to

reveal which assistants he planned to bring from Louisville or who else he would hire from for his staff.

Strong said he doesn’t feel any special pressure taking over a program that boasts the nation’s wealth-iest athletic department,

its own television network and annual expectations of winning conference and national championships.

While Strong spoke, the football stadium’s gi-ant scoreboard displayed a huge picture of Strong cheering with a clenched fi st raised in the air, a shot

from his Louisville days with his Cardinals red shirt now tinted burnt or-ange.

“When you’re not pre-pared, yeah, there’s pres-sure,” Strong said. “If you surround yourself with the right people, it’s not pres-sure.”

BY GEORGE HENRYAssociated Press

ATLANTA — Falcons owner Arthur Blank fully supports coach Mike Smith and general manag-er Thomas Dimitroff and believes they’ll lead his team back to the playoffs in 2014.

In his fi rst public com-ments since Atlanta ended a 4-12 season, Blank said Monday that despite a major collapse in 2013, Smith and Dimitroff have earned the right to change the team’s fortunes next season.

“If I felt for any version of a New York minute that we didn’t have the right leadership and ability to make that happen in 2014, we would make additional

changes,” Blank said. “I don’t think those changes are necessary because I think we do have ability, but that goal and that de-sire is my standard.”

Blank, the team’s own-er since 2002, believes the Falcons could be on the cusp of a major turn-around. He compared At-lanta’s six-year record un-der Smith and Dimitroff as favorable to the NFL’s upper echelon teams.

Only New England, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Green Bay and New Or-leans have had better records over the last six seasons. The Falcons, who are tied with Indianapolis for a 60-36 regular season mark, are the only club not to reach the Super Bowl.
