Toddlers connect the dots when parents gesture and talk<br />

WASHINGTON (AP) —<br />

Don’t just talk to your toddler<br />

— gesture, too. Pointing, waving<br />

bye-bye and other natural<br />

gestures seem to boost a budding<br />

vocabulary. Scientists<br />

found those tots who could<br />

convey more meaning with<br />

gestures at age 14 months<br />

went on to have a richer<br />

vocabulary as they prepared to<br />

start kindergarten. And<br />

intriguingly,whether a family<br />

is poor or middle class plays a<br />

role, the researchers report<br />

Friday.<br />

Anyone who’s ever<br />

watched a tot perform the<br />

arms-raised “pick me up now”<br />

demand knows that youngsters<br />

figure out how to communicate<br />

well before they can<br />

talk. Gesturing also seems to<br />

be an important precursor to<br />

forming sentences,as children<br />

start combining one word plus<br />

a gesture for a second word.<br />

University of Chicago<br />

researchers wondered if gesturing<br />

also played a role in a<br />

AP<br />

serious problem: Children<br />

from low-income families<br />

start school with smaller<br />

vocabularies than their betteroff<br />

classmates. It’s a gap that<br />

tends to persist as the students<br />

age. In fact, kindergarten<br />

vocabulary is a predicter of<br />

how well youngsters ultimately<br />

fare in school.<br />

PHILADELPHIA —<br />

Struggling Charter<br />

Communications Inc., the<br />

nation’s fourth largest cable<br />

operator, said Thursday that<br />

it plans to file a prearranged<br />

Chapter 11 bankruptcy by<br />

April 1.<br />

Charter operates cable<br />

systems in Whitfield and<br />

Murray counties.<br />

Charter, which is controlled<br />

by Microsoft Corp.<br />

co-founder Paul Allen,said it<br />

has reached an agreement in<br />

principle with holders of $8<br />

billion in debt who will give<br />

up repayment of their debt.<br />

In return, they will receive<br />

common shares, or warrants<br />

for rights to get common<br />

shares, that translate to nearly<br />

owning the entire company<br />

after bankruptcy.<br />

Allen will remain as an<br />

investor and retain the largest<br />

voting interest in Charter.<br />

While his 51 percent stake in<br />

the company will be wiped<br />

out, along with those of other<br />

shareholders as the stock is<br />

Ringgold office. “That’s<br />

why it floored us when we<br />

heard it (Thursday) morning.”<br />

McTee was called a<br />

“truly super person” by Fire<br />

Chief Carl Collins.<br />

“Like a lot of volunteers,<br />

he didn’t know anything<br />

when he signed up in 1984,”<br />

Collins said. “But he’s been<br />

the captain of Mill Creek<br />

Station 9 since 1984. It’s a<br />

huge loss.”<br />

Visitation will be<br />

Saturday from 4 to 8 p.m. at<br />

Julian Peeples Funeral<br />

Home, Westside Chapel in<br />

Rocky Face. The funeral is<br />

Sunday at 3 p.m. at Central<br />

Church of Christ in Dalton.<br />

canceled, Allen was given voting<br />

control by debt holders.<br />

Allen also holds some debt,<br />

which will be converted, and<br />

preferred stock.<br />

In a prearranged bankruptcy,acompany<br />

enters into reorganization<br />

with a plan to<br />

emerge that has the approval of<br />

major stakeholders. The rest of<br />

the creditors will be dealt with<br />

through bankruptcy court. In a<br />

prepackaged bankruptcy,each<br />

creditor has voted on the plan<br />

before the filing.<br />

Charter said it plans to pay<br />

what it owes to suppliers and<br />

other trade creditors in full and<br />

go about the normal course of<br />

business.<br />

“We are pleased to have<br />

reached an agreement with<br />

such a significant portion of<br />

our bondholders on a longterm<br />

solution to improve our<br />

capital structure,” said Neil<br />

Smit,president and chief executive<br />

officer,in a statement.<br />

Allen, who owns the<br />

Seattle Seahawks of the<br />

National Football League and<br />

the National Basketball<br />

Association’s Portland Trail<br />

Blazers, put in over $7 billion<br />

into Charter,his biggest investment<br />

after he left Microsoft in<br />

1983. Over the years, Charter<br />

piled on debt for acquisitions.<br />

It now serves 5.5 million customers<br />

in 27 states.<br />

The company said two of<br />

its subsidiaries will make a $74<br />

million interest payment<br />

before the 30-day grace period<br />

for debt that was due on Jan.<br />

15 expires. Thursday’s agreement<br />

with debt holders leaves<br />

Charter with $13 billion of<br />

mostly bank debt, expiring<br />

from 2013 to 2016.<br />

Separately, Charter said<br />

fourth-quarter revenue is<br />

expected to increase by 6.6<br />

percent to $1.66 billion, with<br />

An orbital<br />

clash with trash<br />

The aerospace community knew a collision was<br />

inevitable and that, in turn, signaled a potentially<br />

worsening hazard for the space station, shuttle,<br />

orbiting telescopes and other satellites.<br />

For the first time since man began the space age,<br />

with Sputnik in 1957, two fully intact satellites<br />

have collided, creating two large fields of orbiting<br />

debris. The statistical likelihood of this stuff colliding<br />

with something is small,but at orbital speeds of<br />

around 17,500 miles per hour it doesn’t take much.<br />

One satellite, belonging to the U.S. company<br />

Irridium, relayed phone calls; the other was a<br />

defunct Russian military Cosmos satellite. The<br />

American-owned satellite was launched in 1997,<br />

the Cosmos in 1993, and is believed to have been<br />

out of service for a decade. Occurring almost 500<br />

miles over Siberia, it must have been quite a collision:<br />

The Cosmos weighed over a ton, the relay<br />

satellite 1,235 pounds.<br />

An estimated 6,600 satellites have been<br />

launched in the last 51 years, and about 1,000 of<br />

those are operational. With China and now Iran<br />

launching satellites, there is going to be a lot of<br />

metal whizzing around Earth. The U.S. military<br />

and NASA now monitor something like 18,000<br />

separate pieces of space debris,some of them quite<br />

small.<br />

The space station and the shuttles can be moved<br />

if a threat is detected, and most commercial satellites<br />

can be repositioned. For whatever reason, the<br />

system failed with the defunct Cosmos, and scientists<br />

are now trying to find out why.<br />

There have been space collisions before, but it<br />

has generally been debris that strikes other debris.<br />

This is the first time a fully functioning satellite has<br />

been taken out in a collision.<br />

There does seem to be a need for stepped-up<br />

monitoring of space debris and perhaps an international<br />

convention on disposing of old satellites or<br />

parking them in orbits where they’re not a threat. It<br />

says something that the most enduring aspect of<br />

humanity’s reach for the stars is litter.<br />

President Obama is back in<br />

messianic campaign mode. It is<br />

unbecoming. When he’s not<br />

snarling at conservative opponents<br />

of his endless spending<br />

programs, he’s pandering to<br />

supporters as the nation’s community<br />

organizer-in-chief. At a<br />

stimulus rally in Ft. Myers,Fla.,<br />

on Tuesday, awoman named<br />

Henrietta Hughes stood up to<br />

decry the mortgage crisis and<br />

ask Obama for his personal<br />

help. Choking back tears, she<br />

implored: “I have an urgent<br />

need. We need a home, our own<br />

kitchen,our own bathroom.”<br />

If she had more time, she<br />

probably would have remembered<br />

to ask Obama to fill up<br />

her gas tank,too. The soul-fixer<br />

dutifully asked her name, gave<br />

her a hug and ordered his staff<br />

to meet with her. Supporters<br />

cried, “Amen!” and “Yes!” A<br />

young McDonald’s worker<br />

named Julio Osegueda bolted<br />

out of his seat and exclaimed:<br />

“It is such a blessing to see you.<br />

Oh! Gracious God, thank you<br />

so much! Ungh!”<br />

The event turned into a fullblown<br />

revival meeting when<br />

Obama announced that the<br />

Senate had passed his massive<br />

stimulus plan. Audience members<br />

erupted into applause.<br />

Tongues of fire descended from<br />

the sky. Loaves and fishes (or<br />

rather,pork and Kool-Aid) multiplied<br />

miraculously into trillions<br />

for all. GOP Gov. Mark<br />

Sanford of South Carolina didn’t<br />

know how right he was<br />

when he warned over the weekend:<br />

“We’re moving precipitously<br />

close to what I would<br />

call a savior-based economy.”<br />

Like Mighty Mouse,<br />

President Obama is here to save<br />

the day. The government is here<br />

to help — and it is your patriotic<br />

duty to pay for it all without<br />

preconditions. Hughes didn’t<br />

explain the cause of her financial<br />

turmoil. Obama didn’t ask.<br />

And if we conservatives dare to<br />

question the circumstances —<br />

and the underlying assumption<br />

Michelle<br />

Malkin<br />

As I was writing this column, the<br />

Woman Who Shares My Name wanted<br />

to ask two questions. First, would I<br />

please talk about positive things this<br />

week? “Surely,”she mused, “there has<br />

to be some good news you can share<br />

with readers instead of your usual<br />

gloom and doom.” I told her she was<br />

meddling in my business. This space<br />

represents my opinions, and telling me<br />

what to write was a violation of my<br />

right of free expression, which could<br />

land her in serious trouble with First<br />

Amendment advocates.<br />

That led to her second question:<br />

“How would you like to eat broccoli<br />

three times a day for the rest of your<br />

miserable life and have what is left over<br />

rammed up your nose?” Say what you<br />

will about the Woman Who Shares My<br />

Name, but she is a terrific negotiator.<br />

Hence, I will attempt to offer some<br />

good news to go with the bad.<br />

Good news : Our friends in the<br />

General Assembly are working on a<br />

measure that will double the homestead<br />

exemption from $2,000 to $4,000 and<br />

give homeowners a tax break worth<br />

about $200 to $300 per household this<br />

year. Bad news :Local cities and counties<br />

will probably have to raise property<br />

taxes to cover the shortfall. Maybe<br />

politicians understand the logic of this.<br />

I don’t.<br />

Good news :The General Assembly<br />

has voted to meet only three days a<br />

week until they can figure out what is<br />

going on in Washington with the economic<br />

stimulus package. (Good luck<br />

with that. Even Washington doesn’t<br />

understand the economic stimulus<br />

package, and they created that<br />

that it is<br />

government’s<br />

(that<br />

is, taxpayers’)<br />

role to<br />

bail her out<br />

— we’ll be<br />

lambasted<br />

as cruel<br />

haters of the<br />

downtrodden.<br />

W o e<br />

unto ye<br />

unbelievers<br />

in Big<br />

Government who cling to what<br />

Obama derided as “ideological<br />

rigidity.”<br />

Well, pardon my unbending<br />

belief in fairness and personal<br />

responsibility, but why should<br />

my tax dollars go to feed the<br />

housing entitlement beast? At<br />

his fear-mongering press conference<br />

Monday night, Obama<br />

lamented that homeowners “are<br />

seeing their property values<br />

decline.” Countrywide crony<br />

Sen. Chris Dodd successfully<br />

stuffed $50 billion into the justpassed<br />

stimulus package for<br />

Treasury Secretary Tim<br />

Geithner to spend on “mandatory<br />

loan modifications” for<br />

homeowners deep underwater<br />

on their mortgages. That’s in<br />

addition to the $20 billion<br />

already allocated by the House<br />

last month for the same purposes.<br />

Banks have been engaged in<br />

these “Mo Mod”programs over<br />

the past year. Democrats want<br />

to accelerate the pace and use<br />

the power of government to<br />

essentially provide a blanket<br />

amnesty for borrowers and<br />

lenders who made bad financial<br />

decisions. Yes, there are many<br />

responsible borrowers out there<br />

having trouble negotiating loan<br />

modifications. But this $50 billion<br />

giveaway to the banks —<br />

on top of the upward of $2 trillion<br />

more from the Treasury<br />

department, on top of the $700<br />

billion in original “TARP”<br />

funding — is throwing more<br />

Dick<br />

Yarbrough<br />

bad money after bad.<br />

This massive expansion of<br />

government meddling in the<br />

housing <strong>market</strong> — yet another<br />

attempt to get federal bureaucrats<br />

in the business of rewriting<br />

loan contracts and reducing<br />

principal — will just delay the<br />

inevitable. A report released by<br />

the Comptroller of the<br />

Currency in December showed<br />

that more than half of loans<br />

modified in the first quarter of<br />

2008 fell 30 days delinquent<br />

within six months. And after six<br />

months, 35 percent of people<br />

were 60 or more days behind on<br />

their payments.<br />

Where’s the fairness in forcing<br />

prudent homeowners and<br />

renters to subsidize people who<br />

bought overpriced houses and<br />

rescue the banks that lent to<br />

them?<br />

Tellingly,Obama chose Ft.<br />

Myers to drum up support for<br />

his wealth redistributionism.<br />

The area has been one of the<br />

hardest hit by foreclosures, as<br />

the president was quick to point<br />

out. But many of those homes<br />

are second or third homes and<br />

investment properties. And low<br />

housing prices are not a catastrophe<br />

for everyone. They’ve<br />

created opportunities for<br />

Americans who haven’t been<br />

able to buy in an artificially<br />

inflated <strong>market</strong>. The median<br />

sales price of a home in the Ft.<br />

Myers area fell 50 percent to<br />

$106,900, from $215,200 in<br />

December 2007. Bargainpriced<br />

home sales are up 146<br />

percent from a year ago.<br />

It’s sacrilegious to say it in<br />

the Age of Obama, but it needs<br />

to be said: Home ownership is<br />

not an entitlement. Credit is not<br />

a civil right. Your propertyvalue<br />

preservation is not my<br />

problem. Can I get an<br />

“Amen!”?<br />

news :Meeting three<br />

times a week means<br />

that legislators will<br />

be in session until<br />

June. Hold on to your<br />

Good news : I<br />

have heard nary a<br />

peep in the past few<br />

weeks from President<br />

Peanut, Ted “Looney<br />

Tunes” Turner or our<br />

e s t e e m e d<br />

Ambassador to Outer<br />

they don’t say something outrageous<br />

soon,I may be forced to write about the<br />

medicinal properties of kumquats.<br />

Good news : One of my favorite<br />

m embers of Congress, Dr. Phil<br />

Gingrey,R-Marietta, publicly criticized<br />

Rush Limbaugh and other conservative<br />

talk show natterers who “stand back<br />

and throw bricks” instead of offering<br />

“real leadership” during high-profile<br />

public policy battles, like the economic<br />

stimulus package. He was right as rain.<br />

If Limbaugh is so smart, why isn’t he<br />

president?<br />

Bad news :After what he called a<br />

“high volume of phone calls and correspondence,”<br />

Gingrey folded like a<br />

cheap tent. He told Limbaugh, “I want<br />

to express to you and all your listeners<br />

my very sincere regret for those comments<br />

I made yesterday. I clearly ended<br />

up putting my foot in my mouth. I<br />

regret those stupid comments.” It<br />

sounds to me like Gingrey was groveling.<br />

Congressmen should never grovel.<br />

That is worse than crying in baseball.<br />

T ODAY IN H ISTORY<br />

Today is Friday, Feb.<br />

13, the 44th day of 2009.<br />

There are 321 days left in<br />

the year.<br />

Highlight in History:<br />

On Feb. 13, 1935, a<br />

jury in Flemington, N.J.,<br />

found Bruno Richard<br />

Hauptmann guilty of firstdegree<br />

murder in the kidnap-slaying<br />

of the son of<br />

Charles and Anne<br />

Lindbergh. (Hauptmann<br />

was later executed.)<br />

On this date:<br />

In 1542, the fifth wife<br />

of England’s King Henry<br />

VIII, Catherine Howard,<br />

was executed for adultery.<br />

In 1741, Andrew<br />

Bradford of Pennsylvania<br />

published the first<br />

American magazine.<br />

Titled “The American<br />

Magazine, or A Monthly<br />

View of the Political State<br />

of the British Colonies,”it<br />

lasted three issues.<br />

In 1920, the League of<br />

Nations recognized the<br />

perpetual neutrality of<br />

Switzerland.<br />

In 1945, during World<br />

War II, Allied planes<br />

began bombing the<br />

German city of Dresden.<br />

The Soviets captured<br />

Budapest, Hungary, from<br />

the Germans.<br />

In 1960, France<br />

exploded its first atomic<br />

bomb, in the Sahara<br />

Desert.<br />

In 1984, Konstantin<br />

Chernenko was chosen to<br />

be general secretary of the<br />

Soviet Communist Party’s<br />

Central Committee, succeeding<br />

the late Yuri<br />

Andropov.<br />

Ten years ago: In his<br />

weekly radio address,<br />

President Bill Clinton said<br />

as many as 4,000<br />

American troops would go<br />

to Kosovo as part of a<br />

NATO peacekeeping force<br />

if warring Serbs and ethnic<br />

Albanians were to<br />

reach a political settlement.<br />

Five years ago:<br />

President George W.<br />

Bush, trying to calm a<br />

political storm, ordered<br />

the release of his Vietnamera<br />

military records to<br />

counter Democrats’ suggestions<br />

that he’d shirked<br />

his duty in the Texas Air<br />

National Guard.<br />

One year ago:<br />

Hollywood writers ended<br />

their 100-day strike that<br />

had disrupted the TV season<br />

and canceled awards<br />

shows.<br />

Today’s Birthdays:<br />

Former test pilot Charles<br />

E. “Chuck” Yeager is 86.<br />

Actress Kim Novak is 76.<br />

Actor George Segal is 75.<br />

Actress Carol Lynley is<br />

67. Singer-musician Peter<br />

Tork (The Monkees) is 67.<br />

Actress Stockard<br />

Channing is 65.<br />

Trying to find good news isn’t easy<br />

Good news :The University System<br />

of Georgia is running like such a welloiled<br />

machine that they can’t be bothered<br />

with absorbing budget cuts like<br />

other parts of state government. While<br />

the Legislature is looking into such<br />

measures as employee furloughs<br />

across all departments to deal with a<br />

$2 billion budget deficit, University<br />

System Chancellor Erroll Davis told<br />

legislative budget writers he’s “philosophically”<br />

opposed to furloughs.<br />

Bad news :Davis might have to reexamine<br />

his philosophy because I have<br />

identified some potential furlough fodder<br />

for him. There is a particular<br />

department at Georgia Tech that doesn’t<br />

care much for me or my opinions<br />

and have let me know via a taxpayersupported<br />

employee on a taxpayer-supported<br />

computer on company time,<br />

which I assume is taxpayer-supported,<br />

too. If I’m the biggest thing on the<br />

minds of that group at Tech, I would<br />

submit they have too much time on<br />

their hands. Give them a non-tax-supported<br />

furlough. That’s my philosophy.<br />

Good news: I have told the Woman<br />

Who Shares My Name that I would<br />

appreciate her not interfering in my<br />

business in the future. Writing columns<br />

is much too complicated for her to<br />

understand, and I have neither the time<br />

nor inclination to explain it to her.<br />

Bad news :It is hard to breathe with<br />

broccoli up my nose.<br />

School<br />

➣ Continued from page 1A<br />

School this fall. It’s also the<br />

old Bagley Middle School<br />

building.<br />

North Murray will have<br />

only freshmen and sophomores<br />

in 2009-2010. Juniors<br />

are to be added in 2010-2011<br />

and seniors will come on<br />

board in 2011-2012. North<br />

Murray’s athletic schedule<br />

this season will be a mix of<br />

junior varsity and varsity<br />

games. One of those varsity<br />

football games will be against<br />

Murray County on Oct. 29.<br />

Principal Maria Bradley,<br />

athletics director Josh Lowe<br />

and the school’s three coaches<br />

used the unveiling as an<br />

impromptu pep session, urging<br />

students to stick to their<br />

studies, graduate in 2012, be<br />

active in the community and<br />

participate in sports and other<br />

activities such as cheerleading,<br />

band and the fine arts.<br />

By choosing the<br />

Mountaineers, the new high<br />

school departs from the<br />

American Indian theme of<br />

most Murray County schools.<br />

Bagley Middle School is the<br />

Braves (with green,black and<br />

white as school colors),while<br />

Gladden Middle School is the<br />

Warriors. Murray County<br />

High School is the Indians.<br />

North Murray is the only high<br />

school in Georgia nicknamed<br />

Mountaineers.<br />

“We really wanted to create<br />

an unique identity for<br />

North Murray High School,”<br />

Bradley said. “And we felt we<br />

would have a more unique<br />

identity if we went away from<br />

the Native American mascot.<br />

We went with what we<br />

thought was best for us.”<br />

The school site is in a picturesque<br />

part of the county<br />

and is surrounded by mountains.<br />

“The Mountaineers was<br />

just an obvious choice<br />

because of the location of<br />

North Murray High School<br />

being at the foot of the mountains<br />

and it’s such a beautiful<br />

site,” Bradley said.<br />

Bradley said the<br />

Mountaineer represents<br />

“strength, courage and<br />

endurance to be a leader and<br />

do whatever it takes, so there<br />

will be no boundaries and no<br />

limitations on what we can<br />

accomplish together at our<br />

new high school.”<br />

Last year, middle school<br />

and high school students<br />

were asked for their suggestions<br />

for a mascot and colors.<br />

Response was high with<br />

about 1,000 people submitting<br />

ideas. Chiefs, Cowboys<br />

and Mountaineers were the<br />

most popular nicknames. A<br />

small committee of administrators<br />

and teachers — with<br />

student input — picked the<br />

new mascot and colors.<br />

The school system was<br />

charged with developing a<br />

unique color scheme. Murray<br />

County has green and white,<br />

Dalton High has red and<br />

white, Northwest Whitfield<br />

High has orange and blue and<br />

Southeast High has maroon<br />

and silver. Black symbolizes<br />

power, authority, aggression,<br />

style, glamour and sophistication,<br />

Bradley said, while gold<br />

is “the color of champions.”<br />

The school has two logos.<br />

One is an oversized, gold<br />

“M” with a smaller “N” sitting<br />

underneath, which gives<br />

the visual appearance of<br />

mountains. The second logo<br />

is a cartoon drawing of a<br />

bearded Mountaineer, grimacing<br />

with a determined<br />

look on his face.<br />

Larry Cornelius was hired<br />

earlier this month as North<br />

Murray’s first coach. He will<br />

head the football and<br />

wrestling programs. The 28-<br />

year-old Cornelius encouraged<br />

students to be involved<br />

at the school. He also asked<br />

students to come up with a<br />

name for North Murray’s student<br />

section. Murray County<br />

already has “The Tribe,” a<br />

group of energetic students<br />

who often dress up for basketball<br />

and football games.<br />

Cornelius then mentioned<br />

that off-season football<br />

weightlifting programs will<br />

start the morning of Feb. 23.<br />

“We’re ready to start a<br />

new tradition, atradition of<br />

winning, at North Murray<br />

High School,”Cornelius said.<br />

Eric Bishop, the school’s<br />

boys basketball and track<br />

coach, and Angela Campbell,<br />

the school’s girls basketball<br />

and volleyball coach, also<br />

spoke to the students. Bishop<br />

joked the new colors give<br />

girls an excuse to buy a new<br />

wardrobe.<br />

Many Ninth Grade<br />

Academy students, including<br />

15-year-old Carson Bartley,<br />

were enthused with the new<br />

colors, mascot and logos.<br />

“I think the new colors are<br />

pretty cool,”Bartley said.<br />

M ATT H AMILTON / The Daily Citizen<br />

Dr. Maria Bradley,incoming principal at the new North Murray High School,<br />

speaks to students at the Ninth Grade Academy Thursday during the revealing<br />

of the new school’s colors and mascot.<br />

Not every 14- and 15-<br />

year-old student was struck<br />

with the coolness factor.<br />

Some weren’t happy with the<br />

colors — one contrarian said<br />

it looked like Batman’s color<br />

scheme — while others<br />

scratched their heads over the<br />

selection of the Mountaineer.<br />

For those students and<br />

Murray County residents who<br />

like the look, North Murray<br />

gear — T-shirts, hooded<br />

sweatshirts, hats and car<br />

stickers — will be on sale at<br />

Bagley and Gladden middle<br />

schools.<br />

There hasn’t been any discussion<br />

about changing the<br />

Bagley Middle School mascot<br />

or colors, principal<br />

Spencer Gazaway said. He<br />

said some people would<br />

oppose such changes, while<br />

some would be opposed to<br />

not changing.<br />

“I think that it is important<br />

as a feeder to instill that sense<br />

of pride as far as what the<br />

high school is,” Gazaway<br />

said. “I think it’s great that we<br />

have a new mascot and color<br />

scheme to give this end of the<br />

county a new identity, not<br />

something that is Native<br />

American-themed or green. It<br />

was a good step by Dr.<br />

Bradley and her staff to set us<br />

apart up here.”<br />

Gregg withdraws<br />

nomination<br />

WASHINGTON —<br />

Republican Sen. Judd Gregg<br />

of New Hampshire abruptly<br />

withdrew his nomination as<br />

Commerce secretary<br />

Thursday,the third Cabinetlevel<br />

pick scuttled and the<br />

latest political stumbling<br />

block in Barack Obama’s<br />

young presidency. “I said<br />

yes. That was my mistake,”<br />

Gregg told reporters at a<br />

Capitol Hill news conference.<br />

He said he’d always<br />

been a strong fiscal conservative.<br />

“It really wasn’t a<br />

good pick.”The about-face<br />

left Obama without a full<br />

team to lead the government.<br />

Gregg gave Obama credit for<br />

reaching out to him. But, he<br />

cited “irresolvable conflicts”<br />

with Obama’s handling of<br />

the economic stimulus and<br />

2010 census.<br />

Wild winds blow<br />

across North<br />

Wild winds with gusts<br />

topping 60 mph blew from<br />

the Great Lakes to the East<br />

Coast on Thursday,knocking<br />

out power to hundreds<br />

of thousands of customers,<br />

disrupting travel and killing<br />

at least five people. The<br />

high winds, attributed to a<br />

strong low pressure system,<br />

started Wednesday night and<br />

moved east overnight, kicking<br />

up gravel and sand from<br />

construction sites and hurling<br />

garbage cans onto busy<br />

New York City streets on<br />

Thursday. Utilities such as<br />

Jersey Central Power &<br />

Light in New Jersey reported<br />

downed power lines from<br />

wind-snapped trees. About<br />

250,000 customers remained<br />

without power Thursday in<br />

Pennsylvania, and 140,000<br />

more in Ohio. There were<br />

also about 109,000 outages<br />

in West Virginia, more than<br />

35,000 in New Jersey and<br />

14,900 in Michigan.<br />

Disappearance seen<br />

as abduction<br />

SATSUMA, Fla. —<br />

Investigators were treating<br />

B RIEFS<br />

the disappearance of a 5-<br />

year-old north Florida girl as<br />

an abduction and continued<br />

searching for the child<br />

Thursday. The Putnam<br />

County Sheriff’s Office said<br />

investigators assume<br />

Haleigh Cummings was<br />

abducted because house-tohouse<br />

searches of the neighborhood<br />

Wednesday found<br />

no evidence that she wandered<br />

away. Haleigh’s father<br />

Ronald Cummings also said<br />

he didn’t believe she had<br />

left their home in the middle<br />

of the night. “I know somebody<br />

took her. I know for a<br />

fact she didn’t wander off<br />

— she’s afraid of the dark,”<br />

Cummings told NBC’s<br />

“Today” on Thursday.<br />

Haleigh’s mother, Crystal<br />

Sheffield, also believes<br />

someone took her daughter.<br />

Threats made to<br />

octuplet mom<br />

LOS ANGELES —<br />

Police said Thursday they<br />

will investigate death threats<br />

against octuplet mom Nadya<br />

Suleman and advise her publicist<br />

on how to handle a torrent<br />

of other nasty messages<br />

that have flooded his office.<br />

Word that the 33-year-old<br />

single, unemployed mother<br />

is receiving public assistance<br />

to care for the 14 children<br />

she conceived through in<br />

vitro fertilization has stoked<br />

furor among many people.<br />

Police said officers were<br />

meeting with Suleman’s<br />

publicist Mike Furtney about<br />

the flood of angry phone<br />

calls and e-mail messages<br />

against Suleman, her children<br />

and Furtney.<br />

Ala. man executed<br />

ATMORE,Ala. — Danny<br />

Joe Bradley was executed<br />

Thursday for the rape and<br />

strangulation of his 12-yearold<br />

stepdaughter,Rhonda<br />

Hardin. The 49-year-old<br />

Bradley was given a lethal<br />

injection at 6:15 p.m. Central<br />

Time at Holman prison after<br />

spending 25 years on<br />

Alabama’s death row. Bradley<br />

had no final statement. He<br />

stared at the ceiling without<br />

looking at the witnesses.<br />

WASHINGTON (AP) —<br />

Millions of workers would<br />

soon see an extra $13 in their<br />

weekly paychecks and thousands<br />

of small businesses<br />

operating in the red could get<br />

tax refunds under the economic<br />

recovery bill nearing<br />

completion in Congress.<br />

Businesses won’t fare as<br />

well as they did in earlier versions<br />

of the legislation. But<br />

most of the tax cuts for families<br />

and individuals were preserved,<br />

though some were<br />

reduced.<br />

There are tax breaks for<br />

low-income families with<br />

children; college students;<br />

first-time homebuyers; people<br />

who buy new automobiles;<br />

and those collecting<br />

unemployment benefits.<br />

The Obama administration<br />

says 95 percent of taxpayers<br />

will get relief.<br />

“There are provisions that<br />

could pay you now and some<br />

that could pay you later,”said<br />

Amy McAnarney, executive<br />

director of the Tax Institute at<br />

H&R Block. “They’re going<br />

to give you money to spend,<br />

and then they’re going to give<br />

you incentives to spend it.”<br />

In all, the $789 billion<br />

plan includes about $280 billion<br />

in tax cuts. Congress is<br />

expected to send the package<br />

to President Barack Obama<br />

as early as Friday.<br />

Obama’s signature<br />

“Making Work Pay” credit<br />

would provide up to $400 for<br />

individuals and $800 for couples<br />

in 2009 and 2010. Most<br />

workers would see about a<br />

$13 a week increase in their<br />

take-home pay, starting<br />

around June.<br />

The credit is phased out<br />

for individuals making more<br />

than $75,000 and couples<br />

making more than $150,000.<br />

Millions of low-income<br />

workers who don’t make<br />

enough money to pay income<br />

taxes would get checks from<br />

the government when they<br />

file their 2009 tax returns.<br />

Among the other ways<br />

taxpayers could save money:<br />

■ Parents with children in<br />

college — and some adult<br />

students — could get<br />

expanded tax credits of up to<br />

C ongr a tul a t ions &<br />

Happy Valen t ine’s Day to :<br />

$2,500 to help cover tuition<br />

and related expenses in 2009<br />

and 2010.<br />

■ First-time homebuyers<br />

could get a tax credit of up to<br />

$8,000 if they buy homes<br />

between Jan. 1 and Dec. 1.<br />

■ Existing homeowners<br />

could get a tax credit of up to<br />

$1,500 by making their<br />

homes more energy-efficient<br />

in 2009 or 2010. Numerous<br />

projects would qualify, such<br />

as installing energy-efficient<br />

windows, doors, furnaces,<br />

and air conditioners, or<br />

adding insulation.<br />

Homeowners can get back 30<br />

percent of their expenses, up<br />

to $1,500.<br />

■ People who buy new<br />

cars in 2009 can deduct the<br />

sales taxes from their taxable<br />

income.<br />

■ About 24 million taxpayers<br />

would be spared from<br />

the Alternative Minimum Tax<br />

in 2009. The tax was enacted<br />

40 years ago to make sure the<br />

wealthy pay at least some<br />

tax. But it never was adjusted<br />

for inflation, so Congress<br />

enacts a temporary fix each<br />

year. On average, the fix<br />

would save mainly upper<br />

middle-income families of<br />

four about $2,300.<br />

■ The Earned Income Tax<br />

Credit would be expanded<br />

for poor families with three<br />

T HE D AILY C ITIZEN<br />

Apart of the $790 billion stimulus agreement between the House and Senate negotiators would be<br />

allocated to education, transportation and help for workers and families hit hardest by the economic crisis.<br />

or more children that pay no<br />

income taxes. More than 22<br />

million families qualify for<br />

the credit, one of the government’s<br />

largest anti-poverty<br />

programs.<br />

■ Poor families would<br />

have greater access to the<br />

$1,000 child tax credit, even<br />

if they don’t make enough<br />

money to pay income taxes.<br />

A married couple with<br />

two children making $35,000<br />

would save $1,200 on their<br />

2009 taxes, according to an<br />

analysis by Deloitte Tax.<br />

That same couple making<br />

$125,000 would save $3,700<br />

in part because of the AMT<br />

fix.<br />

Do you remember when<br />

you met the first love of your<br />

life?<br />

Andrew Mackpeace Ladd<br />

III does. It was second<br />

grade. He looked across the<br />

room at Melissa Gardner<br />

and found a friend for life.<br />

Only it took Andrew and<br />

Melissa a long time — and a<br />

lot of letters — to realize<br />

maybe they were more than<br />

friends and maybe first loves<br />

can last a lifetime.<br />

“Love Letters” is the<br />

story of Andrew and<br />

Melissa. It is a funny,bittersweet<br />

look at the lives of two<br />

very different people who<br />

stay connected in the days<br />

before e-mail, instant messaging,<br />

Blackberries and<br />

Facebook. Andrew and<br />

Melissa wrote letters.<br />

“Love Letters,”a reader’s<br />

Association’s Safe Return<br />

Bracelet program, will run<br />

today and Saturday at 7 and<br />

9:30 p.m.<br />

Tonight’s 7 p.m. show<br />

features Howard and Sandy<br />

Elder with Josh Parrott and<br />

Grace Kling as young<br />

Andrew and Melissa. The<br />

Elders have been married 43<br />

years and are members of<br />

First United Methodist<br />

Church. Howards is<br />

employed with J&J<br />

Industries, is a member of<br />

the Rotary Club and the former<br />

chair of the Alzheimer’s<br />

Association. He also volunteers<br />

with United Way.<br />

Sandy is active in the<br />

Creative Garden Club and<br />

Artistic Civic Theatre, serves<br />

as a DOC-UP volunteer and<br />

sings with Howard in the<br />

church choir. She was most<br />

recently seen in the ACT<br />

production of “The First<br />

Baptist Church of Ivy Gap.”<br />

At 9:30, Michael<br />

Anthony and Susan Ridley<br />

will be featured. They<br />

recently played not-sohappy<br />

couple Harry Brock<br />

and Billie Dawn in “Born<br />

Yesterday.” Both are past<br />

winners of DLT Billy<br />

Awards for their work.<br />

Ridley describes her performance<br />

in “Love Letters”<br />

as a “labor of love.” Her husband<br />

of 32 years, Randall, is<br />

a victim of a rare form of<br />

early onset dementia.<br />

“Alzheimer’s disease and<br />

other forms of dementia are<br />

devastating,” said Ridley.<br />

“They affect the entire family,<br />

not just the patient. The<br />

Alzheimer’s Association is<br />

an invaluable resource for<br />

caregivers, loved ones and<br />

our entire community when<br />

after college and came to<br />

Dalton via Wisconsin,<br />

Mississippi and Kansas.<br />

They have three children and<br />

Mrs. Estelle Dedmon, 85,<br />

ATLANTA (AP) —<br />

Adults in pickup trucks<br />

would finally have to buckle<br />

up, under a bill that sailed<br />

through the state Senate on<br />

Thursday.<br />

Georgia is the only state<br />

in the nation that specifically<br />

exempts adults in pickups<br />

from wearing seat belts.<br />

That defiant stance has cost<br />

the state millions of dollars<br />

in federal highway funds.<br />

The seat belt measure<br />

passed 49-4 on Thursday. It<br />

now moves to the House,<br />

which in recent years has<br />

thrown up a roadblock.<br />

Former House Speaker<br />

Tom Murphy — himself a<br />

pickup driver — was a vocal<br />

opponent who refused to<br />

buckle up.<br />

The bill’s sponsor, state<br />

Sen. Don Thomas, afamily<br />

of Dalton, departed this life<br />

Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2009, at<br />

the local hospital.<br />

She was born May 27,<br />

1923.<br />

Services are today at 11<br />

a.m. in the Melrose Chapel<br />

of Ponders Funeral Home.<br />

She will be laid to rest<br />

‘Tommy’McTee<br />

Thomas Travillion<br />

“Tommy” McTee, 55, of<br />

Rocky Face, passed away<br />

Thursday,Feb. 12, 2009.<br />

He was preceded in death<br />

by his parents, Howard and<br />

Juana McTee.<br />

Mr. McTee was a member<br />

of Central Church of Christ<br />

and was employed by<br />

Freightliner of Chattanooga<br />

Ga. Senate backs<br />

seat belts for pickups<br />

physician for almost five<br />

decades, says he’s seen the<br />

carnage from pickup accidents.<br />

“There is a time to buckle<br />

up and that time is every<br />

time you get in your vehicle,<br />

regardless of what type of<br />

vehicle it is,” the<br />

Republican from Dalton<br />

said.<br />

The change has faced<br />

opposition from rural lawmakers<br />

who see it as an<br />

unnecessary intrusion and a<br />

burden for farmers who use<br />

pickups to haul hay and<br />

other supplies as part of<br />

their work.<br />

The bill that passed on<br />

Thursday carves out an<br />

exception for those who are<br />

using a pickup “in connection<br />

with agricultural pursuits.”<br />

Services to celebrate the<br />

life of Mrs. Debbie Taylor<br />

are Saturday at 2 p.m. in the<br />

Sunday sales teams with<br />

curb on underage drinking<br />

An effort to allow<br />

Georgia stores to sell alcohol<br />

on Sundays is joining<br />

forces with a push to crack<br />

down on underage drinking.<br />

Backers of Sunday sales<br />

said Thursday that linking<br />

the two issues will make the<br />

Sunday sales bill more<br />

appealing to some conservative<br />

lawmakers wary of a<br />

backlash from family values<br />

groups.<br />

Christian conservatives<br />

have fought the bill for the<br />

last two years warning it<br />

would sully the Sabbath and<br />

lead to more alcohol-related<br />

deaths on state highways.<br />

The bill is expected to<br />

begin moving in committee<br />

next week. Supporters insist<br />

it has fresh momentum this<br />

year. They are stressing that<br />

the state’s struggling economy<br />

could use the additional<br />

revenue Sunday alcohol<br />

sales would bring.<br />

And Lt. Gov. Casey<br />

Cagle — criticized in the<br />

past for keeping the bill bottled<br />

up in the state Senate<br />

— has said he won’t stand<br />

in the way of a vote this<br />

year.<br />

Georgia is one of only<br />

three states in the nation<br />

that don’t allow stores to<br />

sell any kind of alcohol on<br />

Sunday. The other two are<br />

Connecticut and Indiana.<br />

The bill, sponsored by<br />

state Sen. Seth Harp, R-<br />

Midland, would give local<br />

governments the option on<br />

whether to permit Sunday<br />

alcohol sales. Voters in those<br />

areas would then have to<br />

approve the change at the<br />

ballot box.<br />

Harp said he wants to<br />

merge his bill with portions<br />

of legislation from state<br />

Sen. Dan Moody, an<br />

Alpharetta Republican, that<br />

would hand down stiff<br />

penalties to those who sell<br />

alcohol to minors.<br />

Trial: Learning courtroom procedures<br />

➣ Continued from page 1A<br />

Whitfield County<br />

Courthouse continues today.<br />

Seventeen teams from the<br />

Whitfield County and Dalton<br />

city school systems have or<br />

will participate in the case of<br />

the State of Georgia vs.<br />

Hansel Schmidt and Gretel<br />

Schmidt. Most of the students<br />

are fifth-graders in the<br />

gifted program,but a few are<br />

in the fourth grade.<br />

Hansel and Gretel are<br />

accused of stealing pieces of<br />

cookies and candies from<br />

Crueller’s gingerbread shop,<br />

breaking up her gingerbread<br />

houses and trying to shove<br />

her into a hot oven. The<br />

defendants say they were<br />

acting in self-defense when<br />

Crueller ran after them, hoping<br />

they would be her next<br />

meal.<br />

“They (students) are here<br />

today to learn about how citizens’<br />

rights are protected<br />

under the Constitution,”said<br />

Eva Hendrix, a teacher at<br />

Cohutta Elementary School<br />

who coordinates the noncompetitive<br />

program. “We<br />

are not about winning or losing.<br />

We’re about justice for<br />

Hansel Schmidt and Gretel<br />

M ATT H AMILTON / The Daily Citizen<br />

Prosecuting attorney Autumn Fitzgerald introduces a witness during her opening<br />

statement Thursday at the Whitfield County Courthouse as assistant district<br />

attorney Mark Higgins, serving as judge for the case, listens intently.<br />

Fitzgerald, a student at Westside Elementary School, was bringing a case<br />

against Hansel and Gretel for damaging a gingerbread house and injuring a<br />

bakery owner who just happened to be dressed as a witch.<br />

Schmidt.”<br />

Tammy Poplin, ateacher<br />

at Dalton’s C3 Center, said<br />

mock trials are part of the<br />

program for gifted students.<br />

Whitfield students held trials<br />

for the first time last year,<br />

and this year Dalton schools<br />

were invited to participate.<br />

“The kids have been so<br />

into this,” Poplin said,<br />

adding the students have<br />

been practicing since<br />

January.<br />

Many children came to<br />

court on Thursday dressed<br />

for their parts. Young boys<br />

assigned to be attorneys<br />

dressed in ties and pinstripe<br />

suits, girls supposed to be<br />

bakers wore aprons and chef<br />

hats, and others who were<br />

called as witnesses donned<br />

dressy courtroom attire.<br />

Cassandra Brown, afifthgrader<br />

at Westside<br />

Elementary School, put on a<br />

pointed witch’s hat and a<br />

black, star-studded cape for<br />

her part as Crueller. While<br />

Cassandra had practiced the<br />

part with her classmates, she<br />

Friday, February 13, 2009 9A<br />

said she was still somewhat<br />

nervous.<br />

“I think (the hardest<br />

thing) is just going to be getting<br />

up in front of all the people<br />

because I’m shy,” she<br />

said.<br />

One of her classmates,<br />

Clippar Smith, was an attorney<br />

prosecuting Hansel and<br />

Gretel. He said he learned<br />

about how closing and opening<br />

statements are given by<br />

the prosecution and defense.<br />

“It teaches us what kinds<br />

of jobs lawyers have, and if<br />

we want to be one when we<br />

grow up all we have to do is<br />

pay attention to what goes<br />

on,”he said.<br />

Dalton attorney Rick<br />

Brown and Superior Court<br />

Judge William T. Boyett<br />

were among those helping<br />

with the program,in addition<br />

to a few local lawyers and<br />

several teachers. Parents and<br />

grandparents were allowed<br />

to sit in as jury members.<br />

PREP WRESTLING: STATE SECTIONALS<br />

A last-second effort<br />

Dedication<br />

pays off for<br />

Duckworth<br />

B Y M ARTY K IRKLAND<br />

martykirkland@daltoncitizen.com<br />

As the third period wound down on the<br />

160-pound final at last Saturday’s Area 7-4A<br />

traditional tournament in Rome, Dalton<br />

High’s Taylor Duckworth found himself<br />

needing either a few more seconds or a few<br />

more points.<br />

But the clock is non-negotiable and for<br />

Duckworth, a senior, so was the thought of<br />

walking off the mat at his last area tourney<br />

without the championship that had eluded<br />

him.<br />

“I just wanted,” Duckworth said earlier<br />

this week, “to win area.”<br />

After failing to place as a freshman, he’d<br />

taken third the past two seasons — at 160 as<br />

a sophomore and 171 as a junior — but knew<br />

that couldn’t quite compare with standing on<br />

the highest perch of the medal stand, as he’d<br />

done at three other tourneys this season.<br />

Duckworth was wrestling his area final<br />

opponent, Matt Parker of Cass, for the first<br />

time and knew little about him, save what<br />

he’d seen of Parker wrestling at one tourney<br />

➣ Please see EFFORT, 2B<br />

M ISTY W ATSON/The Daily Citizen<br />

Dalton High’s Taylor Duckworth poses in the team’s wrestling practice room,<br />

where the names of former state placers and area champs are written on the<br />

wall. Duckworth joined the group when he won an area title last weekend, but<br />

he’d like to add to it with a state crown as well.<br />

New round<br />

offers new<br />

challenges<br />

B Y M ARTY K IRKLAND<br />

martykirkland@daltoncitizen.com<br />

Local wrestling coaches will be happy<br />

if their athletes are among the top eight<br />

after this weekend’s state sectional tournaments,<br />

because a finish among the upper<br />

half of the field means a place at the state<br />

traditional next week.<br />

Whether or not it’s a good thing that<br />

advancing to state now means passing<br />

through the sectional round — well,<br />

they’ll have to get back to you on that one.<br />

Dalton, Murray County and Northwest<br />

Whitfield will each send seven wrestlers<br />

to the Class 4A West state sectional at<br />

Upson-Lee High in Thomaston, while<br />

Southeast will send three competitors to<br />

the Class 3A West sectional at Riverwood<br />

High in Atlanta. Both tourneys begin this<br />

afternoon and continue throughout the day<br />

on Saturday.<br />

But this marks the first time that teams<br />

have had to worry about the sectional<br />

round before getting to the state traditional,<br />

where all five Georgia High School<br />

Association classifications will compete<br />

on Feb. 19-21 at Duluth’s Gwinnett<br />

Center. In past seasons, if you finished<br />

high enough in your area, you were in.<br />

Now there’s one more hoop to jump<br />

through before that trip to state.<br />

“I know it was an attempt to make things<br />

fair,”Northwest coach Allen Tucker said.<br />

B Y L ARRY F LEMING<br />

larryfleming@daltoncitizen.com<br />

Dalton will make its annual pilgrimage to<br />

the Georgia High School Association state<br />

swim meet today,but coach Charles Todd is<br />

traveling with an extremely young squad.<br />

“It’s a young, talented group,”Todd said<br />

Thursday. “Our highest seeds are either<br />

freshmen or sophomores. I’m hoping for a<br />

top 10 team finish and we’re looking to go<br />

higher as they move up in age.”<br />

The diving portion of the state meet was<br />

held Thursday at The Marist School in<br />

Atlanta, and Catamounts freshman Chase<br />

Hair placed 13th with 297.65 points. Girls<br />

diver Erin Hullender was 21st with 111.30.<br />

Swimming begins this afternoon at The<br />

Westminster School and concludes on<br />

Saturday. Dalton’s highest pre-meet ranking<br />

belongs to freshman Omar Farag, who is<br />

12th in the 100 butterfly.<br />

“Omar could get into the top eight with a<br />

big swim,”Todd said.<br />

The Lady Cats’ 200 freestyle relay unit is<br />

ranked 13th.<br />

The Cats’ and Lady Cats’ medley relay<br />

teams each have a No. 14 ranking.<br />

Stephen Jones, another freshman, is<br />

ranked 14th in the 100 freestyle and 21st in<br />

the 100 backstroke, Todd said.<br />

Sophomore Joana Rosales is rated No. 18<br />

in the 100 backstroke and freshman Rebecca<br />

Davis is 18th in the 100 breaststroke.<br />

The Cats’ 200 freestyle relay goes in as<br />

the 20th-ranked group.<br />

Todd said the boys 400 freestyle relay is<br />

28th, while the girls are rated No. 31.<br />

“I’m looking for some big swims this<br />

weekend,” said Todd, who is assisted by<br />

Sharlinda Haight and George News. “We<br />

leave (this) morning and we’re psyched and<br />

ready to go.”<br />

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Jeff<br />

Gordon and Kyle Busch both celebrated in<br />

Victory Lane, far away from the real winners<br />

of the Daytona 500 qualifying races.<br />

Jeremy Mayfield was emotional. AJ<br />

Allmendinger hid his tears behind sunglasses.<br />

Scott Riggs felt as if he’d won<br />

NASCAR’s biggest race. None of them are<br />

a threat to win the Daytona 500, but at least<br />

they’ll be in the show.<br />

Allmendinger, Mayfield, Riggs and<br />

Regan Smith earned spots in the seasonopening<br />

race in Thursday’s Gatorade Duels.<br />

“It feels absolutely awesome. It’s like we<br />

just won the race,”said Riggs,who finished<br />

eighth in the first qualifier.<br />

None of the four drivers had rides a<br />

month ago, piecing together any opportunity<br />

they could to get them to Daytona<br />

International Speedway. Allmendinger was<br />

let go from Red Bull Racing late last year,<br />

and is clinging to an eight-race deal with<br />

Richard Petty Motorsports. Riggs became<br />

unemployed when Tony Stewart took control<br />

of his race team and revamped the driver<br />

lineup.<br />

Smith was a casualty of the merger<br />

between Dale Earnhardt Inc. and Chip<br />

Ganassi Racing, while Mayfield has been<br />

out of full-time work since Ray Evernham<br />

fired him midway through the 2006 season.<br />

Allmendinger, who failed to make the<br />

500 in his first two NASCAR seasons with<br />

Red Bull, will finally be able to rest after a<br />

stressful buildup to the qualifying races.<br />

“I’ve been so nervous over the last couple<br />

days ’cause I’ve been in this position the<br />

last two years,”Allmendinger said.<br />

“But I really felt like this year I deserved<br />

to be in the race, that this team deserved to<br />

be in the race.”<br />

Mayfield has felt the same way, watching<br />

from the sidelines as NASCAR roared<br />

on without him.<br />

With no ride lined up, Mayfield at the<br />

last minute threw his own team together for<br />

one last try. He’s got a mismatched group of<br />

volunteers, and after loaned-out jackman<br />

Kyle Roland was injured while pitting Kirk<br />

Shelmerdine’s car during the first qualifying<br />

race, Mayfield borrowed an emergency<br />

replacement from Michael Waltrip’s crew.<br />

“Man, 23 days ago we didn’t even have<br />

a race team,” Mayfield said after finishing<br />

ninth in the second qualifier. “It’s a very<br />

unbelievable feeling. To know where we<br />

were at then,how much hard work has been<br />

done in such a short amount of time is just<br />

unbelievable. To come here and do this, it’s<br />

like winning 10 races.”<br />

The 39-year-old journeyman is throwing<br />

everything into this effort. After racing just<br />

25 times over the past two years,and failing<br />

to draw much interest when rides became<br />

available, starting his own team became the<br />

last option in continuing his career.<br />

All statistics are from games through Feb. 10<br />

Dalton’s girls statistics were not submitted.<br />

“And I know other states<br />

do it. But the jury’s still out for<br />

me. I want to see what it’s like<br />

down there. I know this, you<br />

ain’t going to wrestle a bad kid<br />

early,you’re going to wrestle<br />

some good kids and you’ve<br />

got to be on your A game. Our<br />

kids are excited about it.”<br />

The main argument in<br />

favor of adding the sectional<br />

round was that it would<br />

shrink the monolithic beast<br />

the state traditional had<br />

become since all five classes<br />

were moved to one location<br />

starting with the 2005-06<br />

season. That change has<br />

meant a lot of sitting around<br />

for a lot of wrestlers — not<br />

to mention the spectators<br />

there to watch only a single<br />

classification, team or athlete<br />

compete — and generally<br />

at least part of three<br />

days out of school.<br />

Now,state sectionals will<br />

mean a 16-man bracket for<br />

each weight class rather<br />

than the 32-man fields set<br />

for recent seasons and a<br />

tourney that’s held, mostly,<br />

over two days.<br />

But getting past area and<br />

sectionals may feel like double<br />

jeopardy for the teams<br />

whose sectional lines lump<br />

them in with better programs.<br />

That’s the concern for some<br />

coaches in the Class 4A West<br />

sectional,anyway.<br />

“I’m hoping everything<br />

works out,” Dalton coach<br />

Charles Mitchell said. “ ...<br />

but at the same time, I feel<br />

like it’s unbalanced.”<br />

Murray County coach<br />

Chris Thornbury’s main<br />

concern is that the sectional<br />

round adds “another week<br />

to a very long season” and<br />

hurts multi-sport athletes in<br />

their preparation time for<br />

spring sports. Other coaches,<br />

including Southeast’s<br />

Neil Nichols, also pointed<br />

out the financial impact an<br />

extra weekend can have on a<br />

team’s wallet in paying for<br />

hotel rooms, meals and gas.<br />

As for the task his<br />

wrestlers face, Thornbury<br />

isn’t complaining.<br />

“I just want us to go and<br />

do well,” he said. “You’ve<br />

only got to be top eight and<br />

win two matches.”<br />

Nichols is keeping it<br />

simple as well when talking<br />

to his wrestlers.<br />

“My focus has just been,<br />

two wins, two wins, two<br />

wins,” he said. “Because<br />

two wins gets us to the next<br />

step. That’s the important<br />

thing in the sectional.”<br />

In fact, Tucker noted,<br />

team points won’t be kept<br />

and place medals won’t be<br />

awarded in what’s basically<br />

an elimination event. For<br />

Class 4A state duals runnerup<br />

and Area 7-4A traditional<br />

champ Dalton,advancing all<br />

seven of its competitors<br />

would give it a strong shot at<br />

winning the state traditional.<br />

“I believe they’ve all got<br />

a pretty good chance,”<br />

Mitchell said.<br />

Effort: Commitment to wrestling pays off<br />

➣ Continued from page 1B<br />

earlier this season. Duckworth’s<br />

only specific plan for the match<br />

was to be aggressive, but he had<br />

given up the first takedown and<br />

entered the third period trailing,<br />

6-4.<br />

With position choice his for<br />

the final two minutes,<br />

Duckworth selected down,<br />

believing he could produce the<br />

most points from that spot. But<br />

as the regulation clock ticked<br />

toward its final half-minute, he<br />

was still on bottom and the only<br />

point he’d scored in the third<br />

period came when Parker was<br />

called for a technical violation.<br />

Duckworth’s breakthrough<br />

came with 38 seconds left as he<br />

scored a reversal that gave him<br />

two points, top position and the<br />

lead. But two seconds later,<br />

Parker reversed Duckworth and,<br />

in the process, put him on his<br />

back to earn two additional nearfall<br />

points, a10-7 advantage and<br />

a dose of momentum that seemed<br />

to all but decide the match.<br />

Not in Duckworth’s mind.<br />

Not with his father, Dennis, or<br />

his former youth wrestling<br />

coach, Scott Jones, watching.<br />

Not with the whole team cheering<br />

for him, including Jordan<br />

White, a fellow senior who was<br />

nearby warming up for the 112-<br />

pound final but became the<br />

voice Duckworth honed in on<br />

with time running short.<br />

“I could hear him the whole<br />

time,” Duckworth said. “All I<br />

could hear was him saying, ‘You<br />

can do it.’ ... I couldn’t lose it.<br />

Especially to somebody I<br />

thought I shouldn’t lose to.”<br />

And so he didn’t.<br />

With fewer than 10 seconds<br />

remaining, Duckworth reversed<br />

Parker one more time and —<br />

unaware of the score and believing<br />

it was pin-or-go-home —<br />

put his opponent on his back to<br />

score three near-fall points and<br />

win, 12-10.<br />

In addition to having little<br />

time, Duckworth had little space<br />

to work with, scoring the reversal<br />

at the edge of the mat. But he<br />

was aware enough to make sure<br />

Parker was in-bounds as the ref<br />

counted off the seconds that<br />

awarded him the decisive points<br />

and left a stunned Parker lying<br />

on his back as the buzzer sounded.<br />

Duckworth jumped up,<br />

pumped his fist and ran a celebratory<br />

sprint toward the center<br />

of the mat on the same night<br />

Dalton followed up its Area 7-<br />

4A duals title with the traditional<br />

win.<br />

“I was just happy,”he said. “I<br />

couldn’t wait to go to my dad<br />

and see how happy he was after<br />

that. That was my first thought.”<br />

It had taken Duckworth<br />

almost until the last possible<br />

moment available to win his first<br />

area title.<br />

And it has taken a similar<br />

last-second effort to deliver on<br />

the promise he’s long shown as a<br />

young wrestler.<br />

A bumpy road<br />

The first phase of<br />

Duckworth’s wrestling career<br />

was just a wink. He joined a<br />

local kids wrestling club in<br />

kindergarten, but said his mother,<br />

Renae, pulled him out of the<br />

sport in hopes of counteracting<br />

poor conduct in school.<br />

He eventually made his way<br />

back to the mat in second grade,<br />

wrestling on a club team with<br />

White for part of elementary<br />

school before joining a squad<br />

that practiced out of the<br />

Hammer House gym in<br />

Calhoun. It was then his career<br />

zoomed forward and he began to<br />

dominate in USA Wrestling<br />

tourneys in the area and beyond.<br />

White recalled the transformation.<br />

“He just started beating my<br />

butt,”White said. “I went down<br />

there once and their practices<br />

were crazy. From the third<br />

through fifth grade, he got a lot<br />

better than I was.”<br />

That translated to the middle<br />

school mat, where he won<br />

league titles his first two years at<br />

Dalton Middle, but his progress<br />

stalled soon after his seventh<br />

grade season.<br />

Duckworth has dealt with a<br />

bag of health maladies more<br />

loaded than most people would<br />

want for much of his young life.<br />

He takes medication for<br />

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity<br />

Disorder, suffers from acid<br />

reflux and esophageal ulcers and<br />

undergoes regular examinations<br />

due to a form of neurofibromatosis,<br />

an inherited disease<br />

that can produce tumors on<br />

nerve tissue.<br />

But he received a stronger<br />

dose than even he was accustomed<br />

to when, in the spring of<br />

his seventh grade year, an MRI<br />

targeted at checking his brain for<br />

such tumors turned up evidence<br />

of a chiari malformation — a disorder<br />

in which part of the brain,<br />

without enough room to grow<br />

within the skull, pushes unnaturally<br />

down into the spinal area.<br />

“The doctor was like, ‘I don’t<br />

even know how you’re walking,’<br />

because I had so much fluid in<br />

my spinal column,” Duckworth<br />

said. “He asked if I was having<br />

any numbness, and I was like,<br />

‘Yeah, during my wrestling<br />

match a couple days ago.’”<br />

And that was the end of that<br />

USA wrestling season, acrucial<br />

one that led into eighth grade but<br />

was cut short as Duckworth<br />

underwent a skull and brain<br />

operation to remedy the problem.<br />

The surgery was successful<br />

even beyond the expectations of<br />

the surgeon, who cleared<br />

Duckworth for physical activity<br />

after six months rather than the<br />

expected year.<br />

But he would need another<br />

surgery just months after that to<br />

reconstruct part of his palette.<br />

This operation became necessary<br />

after an infection in his<br />

mouth, which itself came from a<br />

previous dental surgery that followed<br />

his collision with a bowling<br />

ball as he and a friend tried<br />

to retrieve it at the same time<br />

after Duckworth dropped it on<br />

his own foot.<br />

While Duckworth never<br />

missed a scholastic wrestling<br />

season, the strict limitation of<br />

his physical activity during that<br />

stretch led to a rapid weight gain<br />

and took something away from<br />

his competitive spirit.<br />

“I guess his body and his<br />

drive just weren’t the same after<br />

that,”Dennis said.<br />

Teammates, including White,<br />

noticed that, too. And so did<br />

Charles Mitchell, who took over<br />

Dalton’s program after the<br />

Catamounts endured a tumultuous<br />

2005-06 season —<br />

Taylor’s freshman year — in<br />

which they wrestled a limited<br />

schedule after their coach was<br />

replaced just weeks before the<br />

season.<br />

Duckworth’s achievements<br />

weren’t unimpressive as a sophomore<br />

and junior, when his<br />

combined record produced more<br />

than 80 wins and the two area<br />

medals. But his appearances at<br />

the state traditional tourney each<br />

of those seasons was short and<br />

below the level at which<br />

Mitchell believed Duckworth<br />

capable of wrestling.<br />

“He was a guy that didn’t<br />

want to give you that total commitment,”<br />

Mitchell said. “This<br />

year, he’s been more committed<br />

and he’s working harder and<br />

doing the little things. He used<br />

to be the guy that was satisfied<br />

with giving the minimal effort.<br />

Now he’s finally starting to<br />

come along and understand.”<br />

Getting it right<br />

Although it’s been during the<br />

past month that Duckworth’s<br />

progress on the mat has been<br />

most evident, the wrestler’s<br />

gains started with his most dedicated<br />

offseason since his high<br />

school career began.<br />

He worked out in the weight<br />

room under Mitchell’s guidance<br />

last summer, dropped in at a<br />

gym once a week to work on his<br />

takedown skills — he had struggled<br />

most on his feet and wanted<br />

to remedy that this year —<br />

and began drilling with new<br />

Dalton assistant coach Michael<br />

Keefe in the preseason.<br />

Keefe’s pushing of<br />

Duckworth, in both the physical<br />

and mental sense, has made a<br />

big difference, the wrestler said.<br />

“Every match last year, I’d<br />

get taken down first every single<br />

time more than likely, and just<br />

try to work from bottom from<br />

there,” Duckworth said. “I wasn’t<br />

being that aggressive and I<br />

was afraid to take shots. He got<br />

me shooting every day and I<br />

started feeling confident.”<br />

Keefe was an assistant at<br />

Ringgold last season, when that<br />

school competed alongside<br />

Dalton in Area 7-4A, and<br />

recalled sizing up Duckworth as<br />

a talented wrestler who didn’t<br />

realize his own potential. That<br />

was echoed by Mitchell when he<br />

joined Dalton’s staff.<br />

“When I came to Dalton,<br />

coach Mitchell said, ‘If this kid<br />

would get on board and commit,<br />

he could win a state championship’”<br />

Keefe said. “So I knew<br />

right away they were saying his<br />

only downfall was having somebody<br />

to push him and the mindset<br />

to be a champion.”<br />

In addition to developing<br />

Duckworth’s skills in the neutral<br />

position, Keefe developed his<br />

mind.<br />

“When Taylor’s going to beat<br />

somebody, you can always tell<br />

because he goes out there right<br />

away and gets after it,” Keefe<br />

said. “Then I’ve seen times in<br />

finals where he gets kind of<br />

nervous and then I’m nervous.<br />

His style of wrestling is going<br />

after it.”<br />

And so last weekend’s final<br />

couldn’t have been easy for<br />

Keefe to watch. It was no easier<br />

for Duckworth to endure on the<br />

mat,where he was aware the situation<br />

was dire, but he never<br />

stopped wrestling to worry<br />

about the score.<br />

“I think I’m in better shape<br />

than most of the guys I’m<br />

wrestling,” Duckworth said. “If<br />

it’s going to be a close match,<br />

then I want to break them,<br />

because I know the other kid’s<br />

probably going to be gassing<br />

after the second period. That’s<br />

where I think I beat him. I had<br />

already broken him and I was<br />

just being real aggressive with<br />

him.”<br />

It’s an all-out approach that’s<br />

been the rule for Duckworth this<br />

season at practice. In recent<br />

weeks, on his own, he started<br />

doing extra sprints when he didn’t<br />

see the point in wasting time<br />

sitting simply because his group<br />

was finished.<br />

Duckworth joins six other<br />

teammates today at the Class 4A<br />

West sectional, where the top<br />

eight in each weight class<br />

advance to next week’s traditional<br />

state tournament, the season’s<br />

grand finale and the place<br />

where he would most like to<br />

claim a medal.<br />

Time has almost run out on<br />

Duckworth’s chances for that<br />

goal.<br />

But Duckworth’s chances,<br />

even with little time, seem to be<br />

pretty good these days.<br />

“I feel like I can win state,”<br />

he said. “There’s no doubt that I<br />

shouldn’t if I go out there and<br />

wrestle hard every single match,<br />

be aggressive with everybody.<br />

I’ve got the heart to do it.”<br />

Sectional: New for everyone<br />

Selig lashes out at<br />

A-Rod on steroids<br />

TAMPA, Fla. — Bud<br />

Selig says Alex Rodriguez<br />

has “shamed the<br />

game,” though the baseball<br />

commissioner indicated<br />

no plans to punish<br />

the three-time AL MVP.<br />

Two days after Sports<br />

Illustrated reported<br />

Rodriguez tested positive<br />

for steroids in baseball’s<br />

anonymous 2003 survey,<br />

Rodriguez admitted on<br />

Monday that he used<br />

unspecified drugs from<br />

2001-03 while playing for<br />

the Texas Rangers.<br />

“I am saddened by the<br />

revelations,”Selig said in<br />

a statement issued<br />

Thursday. “What Alex did<br />

was wrong, and he will<br />

have to live with the damage<br />

he has done to his<br />

name and reputation.”<br />

Players and owners<br />

didn’t agree to a joint<br />

drug program until<br />

August 2002, and testing<br />

with punishment didn’t<br />

start until 2004.<br />

Williams ‘slams’<br />

new doping rules<br />

PARIS — Serena<br />

Williams joined the chorus<br />

of top tennis players<br />

who believe new antidoping<br />

measures on athletes<br />

are too strong.<br />

The top-ranked<br />

American said the rules<br />

were “over the top.”<br />

Under the latest<br />

WADA code, athletes<br />

must specify one hour<br />

each day when and where<br />

they can be located for<br />

testing. Athletes must also<br />

tell anti-doping authorities<br />

where they will be<br />

over the next three<br />

months, but they can<br />

update this by e-mail or<br />

phone message at short<br />

notice if it changes.<br />

Top-ranked Rafael<br />

Nadal insists that forcing<br />

top athletes to be available<br />

one hour a day for<br />

testing amounted to intolerable<br />

harassment.<br />

Iowa’s Ferentz gets<br />

a seven-year deal<br />

IOWA CITY, Iowa —<br />

Iowa football coach Kirk<br />

Ferentz has agreed to a<br />

new,seven-year contract<br />

that includes the same<br />

salary and bonus structures<br />

as his previous deal.<br />

The contract will run<br />

through the 2015 season.<br />

Last year, Ferentz’s average<br />

annual salary was<br />

$2.84 million.<br />

Marlins’ Uggla<br />

wins arbitration<br />

PHOENIX — Second<br />

baseman Dan Uggla won<br />

his arbitration case against<br />

the Florida Marlins on<br />

Thursday and was awarded<br />

$5.35 million.<br />

Arbitrators made the<br />

decision one day after hearing<br />

the case. The Marlins<br />

ffered $4.4 million.<br />

Uggla hit .260 with 32<br />

homers and 92 RBIs last<br />

year.<br />

Nationals acquire<br />

power hitter Dunn<br />

WASHINGTON —<br />

Adam Dunn has agreed to<br />

a $20 million, two-year<br />

deal with the Washington<br />

Nationals.<br />

The contract will pay<br />

Dunn $8 million in 2009,<br />

and $12 million in 2010.<br />

Dunn, afirst baseman<br />

and outfielder, hit a combined<br />

.236 with 40<br />

homers, 100 RBIs and<br />

164 strikeouts last season<br />

with the Reds and Diamondbacks.<br />

Arkansas’ Fortson<br />

handed suspension<br />

FAYETTEVILLE,<br />

Ark. — Arkansas point<br />

guard Courtney Fortson<br />

was suspended indefinitely<br />

by coach John<br />

Pelphrey on Thursday.<br />

The freshman has<br />

started all but one game<br />

this season, averaging<br />

14.6 points and 6.5<br />

assists. He fouled out of<br />

Arkansas’ last game.<br />

Pelphrey wasn’t specific<br />

about why Fortson<br />

was suspended.<br />

COMMENTARY: PRO WRESTLING<br />

WWE toning down violence against women<br />

H<br />

ere are the news and notes<br />

from the world of pro<br />

wrestling:<br />

• WWE is becoming kinder and<br />

gentler. Because of mounting criticism<br />

and pressure from advertisers,<br />

the organization is scaling<br />

back its man on woman “violence.”<br />

WWE announcer Jim Ross<br />

commented on the change on his<br />

blog at www.jrsbarbq.com/blog.<br />

“Perpetuating this sort of thing<br />

has never been admirable in my<br />

view and what does it teach impressionable,<br />

young viewers?,”Ross<br />

wrote. “Domestic abuse is horrific<br />

in this society and portraying it on<br />

TV for ‘entertainment purposes’ is<br />

hypocritical. I think the WWE has<br />

definitely made the right call on this<br />

matter if indeed the male on female<br />

aggression is history.”<br />

Ross added he didn’t support<br />

Chyna winning the WWE Intercontinental<br />

title several years ago.<br />

• Retired WWE diva Victoria is<br />

pursuing a career in MMA.<br />

■ ■ ■<br />

The Local Corner: The piledriver<br />

that’s not stopping the<br />

Sheepherders from using it. So far,<br />

Jamie<br />

Billy Jester beat Johnny Quaz by<br />

Daytona: Gordon ends longest winless drought of career<br />

➣ Continued from page 1B<br />

to retire on my own, not be pushed to the<br />

wayside,” Mayfield said. “That’s what kept<br />

me motivated to do this.”<br />

Riggs could relate after a fruitless offseason<br />

job search had him still scouring for<br />

work last month.<br />

He was finally swayed by Tommy<br />

Baldwin, who was crew chief and competition<br />

director at Bill Davis Racing before the<br />

sponsor-strapped team folded in late<br />

December. Baldwin was putting together a<br />

startup race team, and lured Riggs to the<br />

driver seat.<br />

“It came down to a point that I had to<br />

make a decision — am I going to sit at home<br />

and stay on the phone and call people and<br />

hope that something opens up to give me an<br />

opportunity to get in the car?” Riggs said.<br />

“Or am I going to go down to Daytona and<br />

start the season off with somebody like<br />

Tommy?<br />

“What really made the decision for me<br />

was when I talked to Tommy and just heard<br />

the passion in his voice. Man, I am just elated.”<br />

So was Gordon, who ended the longest<br />

winless drought of his career by winning the<br />

first duel.<br />

The four-time Cup champion, coming off<br />

his first winless season since his 1993 rookie<br />

year, climbed from his car in Victory Lane<br />

and immediately reached for his young<br />

daughter. Ella was just an infant during his<br />

last victory celebration, in October 2007.<br />

“I’ve been fortunate enough to visit<br />

Victory Lane quite a few times,but not many<br />

times as a father,” Gordon said. “There’s<br />

nothing more special than that.”<br />

The non-points Gatorade Duel doesn’t<br />

officially count for anything in Gordon’s victory<br />

total,but gave him a second-row starting<br />

spot in Sunday’s race.<br />

AP P HOTO<br />

Crew members change tires on Jimmie Johnson’s car during Thursday’s first<br />

150-mile qualifying race for Sunday’s running of the Daytona 500.<br />

It also gave him much-needed momentum<br />

after his disappointing 2008 season.<br />

“Who says we can’t win?” Gordon asked.<br />

“This team has been unbelievable. We all<br />

know what we went through last year by not<br />

winning. There’s a lot of expectations on this<br />

team, but they never wavered. The guys just<br />

kept working hard, building great race cars.<br />

“I’m really excited about the Daytona 500<br />

after that race. It’s been awhile since I’ve<br />

been to Victory Lane. I’ve got to take advantage<br />

of this.”<br />

Busch also made an overdue return to<br />

Victory Lane, where he was a frequent visitor<br />

last season before tailing off when the<br />

championship was on the line. Busch won<br />

eight races last year and led the Cup standings<br />

most of the season, but started to falter<br />

in August and fell apart when the Chase for<br />

the championship began.<br />

A victory in the duel — he held off a late<br />

charge from sentimental favorite Mark<br />

Martin and used help from teammate Denny<br />

Hamlin — has helped him regain momentum.<br />

“It was a disappointing season toward the<br />

end,”Busch said, “so that was a great way to<br />

start it off.”<br />

■ TRUCK SERIES: Johnny Benson<br />

opted out of Bill Davis Racing weeks before<br />

capturing the NASCAR Truck Series championship<br />

last fall,unsure if he wanted to keep<br />

going.<br />

Benson should’ve known better.<br />

Three months after edging Ron Hornaday<br />

by seven points for the title, the 45-year-old<br />

veteran is back at Daytona International<br />

Speedway for tonight’s 250-mile seasonopener<br />

in a different truck — Red Horse<br />

Racing’s No. 1 Toyota — but the same<br />

expectation: to win.<br />

“There’s going to be a lot of different<br />

challenges ahead of us,” Benson said. “If<br />

we’re able to overcome those challenges<br />

quickly,I think we have a shot at defending<br />

the title. If we don’t, then it will be a little<br />

long.”<br />

Maybe, but following NASCAR’s tough<br />

winter, Benson has as good a chance as anyone.<br />

Crew chief Trip Bruce and several team<br />

members made the jump along with him and<br />

a little carry-over could go a long way toward<br />

pushing Benson to a second straight championship.<br />

Benson will start 21st after a qualifying<br />

speed of 174.132.<br />

Colin Braun, driving a Ford, starts from<br />

the pole with Matt Crafton alongside. Braun,<br />

in a Ford, took the inside starting position<br />

with a speed of 177.441. Crafton, in a<br />

Chevrolet, was next at 175.891.<br />

Todd Bodine in a Toyota, Ron Hornaday<br />

Player’s death<br />

ruled accidental<br />

T HE A SSOCIATED P RESS<br />

LUCEDALE, Miss. — A<br />

star Mississippi high school<br />

football player accidentally<br />

shot himself with his shotgun<br />

after he was pulled over during<br />

a traffic stop,agrand jury<br />

ruled Thursday.<br />

Billey Joe Johnson, 17, a<br />

junior at southern Mississippi’s<br />

George County High<br />

School, died of a<br />

wound to the left side<br />

of his head on Dec. 8<br />

after a deputy pulled<br />

him over for running<br />

a red light.<br />

After an initial<br />

investigation,<br />

authorities said the<br />

blast had been selfinflicted.<br />

The grand<br />

jury was looking at whether<br />

it was an accident, suicide or<br />

even a possible slaying.<br />

It concluded there was no<br />

forensic evidence, including<br />

DNA, that indicated the<br />

deputy who pulled Johnson<br />

over had fired the shotgun<br />

and said no other people were<br />

involved in the shooting.<br />

“The grand jury finds ...<br />

that Deputy Joe Sullivan was<br />

in his patrol car at the time of<br />

Billey Joe Johnson Jr.’s<br />

death,” the ruling said.<br />

The mystery surrounding<br />

the athlete’s death has<br />

inflamed suspicion within the<br />

community, with Johnson’s<br />

family and the local chapter<br />

of the National Association<br />

for the Advance-ment of<br />

Colored People rejecting any<br />

notion that the black teen<br />

committed suicide. They said<br />

the talented running back<br />

once clocked at 4.3 seconds<br />

in the 40-yard dash had too<br />

much to live for including a<br />

chance of playing in college<br />

and maybe the NFL.<br />

His mother, Annette Johnson,<br />

said she believes the 16-<br />

member grand jury is wrong.<br />

“I ain’t buying that,” she<br />

said, surrounded by supporters<br />

at the George County<br />

Johnson<br />

Courthouse. “We are going<br />

further and we are going<br />

higher.”<br />

The report said Sullivan,<br />

who is white, did have gunpowder<br />

residue on his hands<br />

but concluded it came from<br />

him handling his service<br />

revolver the morning of the<br />

shooting. They said based on<br />

the lack of Johnson’s blood<br />

on Sullivan’s<br />

clothes and eyewitness<br />

reports that the<br />

deputy could not<br />

have shot the athlete.<br />

Johnson’s hands<br />

also tested positive<br />

for gunpowder<br />

residue and there<br />

were no other<br />

injuries on his body, according<br />

to the grand jury report.<br />

The report did not detail how<br />

Johnson accidentally discharged<br />

the gun that he had<br />

with him because he had<br />

planned a hunting trip. Police<br />

have said that by the time<br />

other officers arrived,<br />

Johnson was lying on the<br />

ground outside of the driver’s<br />

side door with a shotgun on<br />

top of him, the barrel pointing<br />

toward his head.<br />

Johnson family attorney<br />

Jerome Carter has said his<br />

independent investigation of<br />

the case will continue and<br />

hopes his team will be<br />

allowed to review the autopsy<br />

and other evidence.<br />

“I’m very concerned with<br />

Detective Sullivan testing<br />

having gunshot residue on<br />

both of his hands having just<br />

logged in being on duty,”<br />

Carter said.<br />

Dozens of people —<br />

mostly family members and<br />

friends — prayed outside the<br />

courthouse in Lucedale<br />

before going inside to hear<br />

the report read aloud.<br />

The NAACP said it would<br />

submit its evidence to the<br />

U.S. Justice Department and<br />

ask for a federal probe.<br />

Test your play<br />

Players who<br />

enjoy solving double-dummy<br />

problems<br />

will get a kick<br />

out of this one, in<br />

which South can<br />

make all the tricks<br />

with correct play.<br />

This is not an easy<br />

problem.<br />

Here is the solution.<br />

Win the spade<br />

lead with dummy’s<br />

king and play a diamond<br />

to your king.<br />

Then lead a low<br />

trump and finesse<br />

the eight.<br />

Ruff the six of<br />

diamonds with your<br />

queen and return a<br />

low heart to<br />

dummy’s ten. After ruffing the eight of diamonds with your<br />

king, cash the ace of clubs, then return to dummy with a<br />

trump to the ace and cash the ace of diamonds, discarding<br />

a club.<br />

This is now the position:<br />

Cash the queen of diamonds, discarding your ten of<br />

clubs. East cannot afford to discard a club on this trick<br />

since you could then ruff the five of clubs to make the contract.<br />

So let’s assume East discards a spade.<br />

West also cannot find a satisfactory discard on the diamond<br />

queen. First,let’s assume he discards a spade. In that<br />

case, you would cash the ace of spades and score your 13th<br />

trick with the seven of spades.<br />

So let’s say West discards the nine of clubs in the diagrammed<br />

position. You would then counter by leading the<br />

queen of clubs from dummy, trapping East’s king and<br />

West’s jack at the same time and establishing dummy’s<br />

five. Thus,whether East elects to cover or not,you score an<br />

extra club trick to make the contract.<br />

Tomorrow: An unusual approach.<br />

C RYPTOQUIP<br />

Happy Birthday: You will<br />

face many of your past<br />

acquaintances and can rectify<br />

any unresolved problems.<br />

Memories will open new conversations<br />

around you. 3 stars<br />

TAURUS (April<br />

20-May 20): It<br />

won’t hurt to be a little<br />

unorthodox in the way you<br />

handle unusual situations. If<br />

turmoil. You may have to<br />

move along on your own. 3<br />

stars<br />

GEMINI (May 21-June<br />

20): Plan a mini vacation or<br />

sign up for a course or<br />

Don’t procrastinate when the<br />

possibilities are so great. 2<br />

stars<br />

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A<br />

partnership appears to be<br />

lucrative and complementary<br />

to what you have to offer. A<br />

past idea, partner or even<br />

place of interest will come<br />

into play and will help make<br />

your plans simple and accessible.<br />

Stick to a set budget. 4<br />

stars<br />

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.<br />

22): You may want to consider<br />

changing your vocation or<br />

picking up information or<br />

skills that allow you to<br />

advance. Talk to someone<br />

H OROSCOPE<br />

who can give you a lead or<br />

help you network. An old boss<br />

or colleague will have good<br />

advice. 3 stars<br />

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.<br />

22): There will be no room for<br />

laziness. Get out and interact<br />

with people and good things<br />

will start to happen.<br />

Connecting with people from<br />

your past and meeting<br />

new friends will<br />

expand your interests,<br />

your outlook<br />

and your attitude. 3<br />

stars<br />

SCORPIO (Oct.<br />

23-Nov. 21): Feeling<br />

vengeful will eat you<br />

up and hold you<br />

back. You have to<br />

look ahead if you<br />

want to get ahead.<br />

Get on with life and<br />

the things that matter<br />

most to you. You<br />

will rediscover something<br />

about yourself and your skills.<br />

3 stars<br />

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-<br />

Dec. 21): Check out an opportunity<br />

that can lead you in an<br />

entirely different direction<br />

career-wise. Love is in the<br />

stars and, with Valentine’s<br />

Day approaching, you may<br />

want to do something special<br />

to invite a little extra affection<br />

and good times your way. 4<br />

stars<br />

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-<br />

Jan. 19): You can’t trust<br />

everyone, especially when<br />

your emotions are involved.<br />

Protect your assets and don’t<br />

be fooled by empty promises.<br />

Put your cash somewhere safe<br />

so you aren’t tempted to get<br />

involved in a fast-cash<br />

scheme. 2 stars<br />

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-<br />

Feb. 18): Everything will<br />

work itself out as long as you<br />

are true to yourself. Love is on<br />

the rise and, if you get together<br />

with someone you used to<br />

know,you will discover new<br />

interests and develop a strong<br />

and lasting relationship. Let<br />

your imagination be your<br />

guide. 5 stars<br />

PISCES (Feb. 19-March<br />

20): Look back and you will<br />

realize that things you did in<br />

the past now have greater<br />

meaning for you. Get together<br />

with someone who can help<br />

you fulfill your dreams as well<br />

as his or hers. Timing is everything<br />

and, this time, you’ve<br />

got it right. 3 stars<br />

T O Y OUR G OOD H EALTH<br />

Sorting out the causes of ankle swelling<br />

DEAR DR. DONO-<br />

HUE: You wrote that the<br />

causes of one-sided ankle<br />

and foot swelling are different<br />

from the causes of<br />

swelling in both ankles and<br />

feet. I am 80 years old and<br />

have swelling only of my<br />

left ankle and foot. I do not<br />

have high blood pressure. In<br />

1993, I had my left kidney<br />

removed because of cancer.<br />

— S.S.<br />

ANSWER: I did say that,<br />

and it was an oversimplification<br />

of a complicated<br />

process. However, in general,<br />

with heart failure, kidney<br />

failure, liver disease and a<br />

drop in blood proteins, the<br />

right and left foot, ankle and<br />

leg swell.<br />

Swelling of the foot,<br />

ankle and leg on only one<br />

side suggests that there is<br />

trouble with lymph drainage<br />

or lymph nodes,or that there<br />

is a leg infection or a clot in<br />

a leg vein. Lymph is fluid<br />

that comes<br />

from the<br />

circulation<br />

and percolates<br />

over<br />

tissues to<br />

bathe and<br />

nourish<br />

t h e m .<br />

Lymph<br />

vessels,<br />

Paul G. o p e n -<br />

Donohue ended vessels,<br />

suction<br />

the<br />

lymph and return it to circulation.<br />

On its return journey,<br />

lymph passes through lymph<br />

nodes,where foreign material<br />

is removed. Disruption of<br />

lymph vessels or lymph<br />

nodes leads to swelling of<br />

the area deprived of those<br />

structures. Lymph fluid<br />

accumulates there. This<br />

often happens after surgery.<br />

Breast surgery with removal<br />

of lymph nodes and lymph<br />

vessels can lead to swelling<br />

of the arm on the side of the<br />

removed breast. Radiation,<br />

infection and trauma are<br />

other causes of lymph accumulation.<br />

A clot in a leg vein<br />

is a common cause of onesided<br />

swelling.<br />

These generalities don't<br />

always hold true. Early heart<br />

failure, for instance, can<br />

cause one-sided swelling.<br />

The important point is<br />

that the cause of any<br />

swelling must be found<br />

before proper treatment can<br />

be given.<br />

FOR READERS: The<br />

booklet on gout and pseudogout<br />

covers these conditions<br />

in depth. Readers can order<br />

DEAR DR. DONO-<br />

HUE: Please explain what a<br />

silent heart attack is.<br />

If a person fell and hurt<br />

his ribs and they were sore<br />

for many weeks, could that<br />

damage the heart? — V.S.<br />

ANSWER: Heart attacks<br />

can happen without any<br />

symptoms — silent heart<br />

attacks. Such attacks happen<br />

more often to people with<br />

diabetes, to the elderly and<br />

to women. Silent heart<br />

attacks are more dangerous<br />

than pain-producing heart<br />

attacks because people are<br />

unaware that they have any<br />

trouble. Quite often, the<br />

attacks are discovered when<br />

an EKG is taken as part of a<br />

physical exam. A fall with<br />

rib bruises would not create<br />

EKG changes of a heart<br />

attack, nor would such a fall<br />

harm the heart.<br />

DEAR DR. DONO-<br />

HUE: Our 22-year-old<br />

granddaughter has developed<br />

an uncontrollable giggle.<br />

She giggles before, during<br />

and after everything she<br />

says. Each time we talk to<br />

her, the giggles and their<br />

frequency get worse. She is<br />

basically shy and appears to<br />

be nervous, and says she is<br />

not consciously aware of her<br />

giggling. She says her<br />

friends have remarked on<br />

this, too. Is this a tic disorder?<br />

Is there something a<br />

doctor can do to help her? Is<br />

there medication? — S.N.<br />

ANSWER: Underlying<br />

anxiety, stress, shyness and<br />

social phobia set in motion<br />

reflex defenses for people<br />

who harbor these traits. It’s<br />

their way of coping with situations<br />

that generate discomfort.<br />

It’s not a tic,<br />

although it is somewhat<br />

similar. Both are involuntary.<br />

Charley Pride leads Arkansas<br />

lawmakers in sing-along<br />

LITTLE ROCK,Ark. (AP)<br />

— Country music singer<br />

Charley Pride dropped by the<br />

Arkansas Senate to lead lawmakers<br />

in a sing-along, and to<br />

praise the Little Rock hospital<br />

that removed a tumor from<br />

his vocal cords 10 years ago.<br />

In town for a routine check<br />

of his vocal cords, Pride<br />

dropped by the Senate<br />

Wednesday and sang five of<br />

his hits including “Crystal<br />

Chandeliers” and “Is<br />

Anybody Going to San<br />

Antone” from the Senate<br />

floor.<br />

“I enjoyed it. They were a<br />

great audience,” the Country<br />

Music Hall of Famer said<br />

after the impromptu concert.<br />

Pride said he was grateful<br />

to the University of Arkansas<br />

for Medical Sciences, where<br />

he had surgery in 1997 to<br />

remove a tumor from his right<br />

vocal cord. The Mississippi<br />

native said he visits Little<br />

Rock regularly for checkups<br />

following the surgery.<br />

Gov. Mike Beebe, who<br />

joined lawmakers in the singalong,<br />

gave the country music<br />

star an “Arkansas Traveler”<br />

certificate, which is given to<br />

out-of-state dignitaries and<br />

celebrities who visit the state.<br />

“On behalf of the people of<br />

Arkansas, you’re an ambassador<br />

on behalf of our state and<br />

we hope that you’ll come<br />

back often,” Beebe said.<br />

State Sen. Steve Faris,<br />

who worked as a DJ for a<br />

country music station for 13<br />

years, said he had invited<br />

Pride to visit the Senate<br />

because he knew the singer<br />

would be in town for the<br />

checkup. Faris said he credits<br />

UAMS for saving Pride’s<br />

voice and wanted the singer<br />

to share his story with lawmakers.<br />

“His career would have<br />

been over had it not been for<br />

them,” said Faris, D-Malvern.<br />

boyfriend, “Gabriel,” for two years.<br />

He is my first boyfriend.<br />

After four months of dating,<br />

Gabriel has asked me to marry him,<br />

and I said yes. He had been hinting<br />

about an engagement, and I didn’t<br />

have the heart to say otherwise.<br />

Gabriel is very dear to me, but I keep<br />

hearing people say, “Keep your<br />

options open.” I told Gabriel that I<br />

am young (he’s 18), and I want to<br />

take it slowly, but he says if I break<br />

up with him to date other guys, he<br />

will never date me again.<br />

Abby, I want to make sure<br />

Gabriel is the person I want to spend the rest<br />

of my life with. Sometimes I wish I hadn’t<br />

started dating him because I feel too young to<br />

be engaged or married. I love Gabriel dearly.<br />

I don’t want to break his heart or mine. I am<br />

also scared I might mess up this relationship.<br />

What should I do to make myself believe that<br />

I have found my true love? — STUCK IN<br />

DEAR STUCK: You should have been<br />

absolutely honest with Gabriel from the<br />

true love, you won’t have to “make yourself”<br />

believe it. You will KNOW it.<br />

Hawks revel in first-half play<br />

AP P HOTO<br />

Atlanta’s Josh Smith jumps<br />

on the back of Henry Bibby<br />

after a victory earlier this<br />

season. The Hawks are 31-21<br />

at the All-Star break.<br />

B Y P AUL N EWBERRY<br />

Associated Press Writer<br />

ATLANTA — Josh<br />

Smith, who was there for<br />

the worst of seasons, sat at<br />

his locker pondering the<br />

much-improved state of the<br />

Atlanta Hawks.<br />

“How many games did<br />

we win last year?” he asked.<br />

Thirty-seven, someone<br />

replied.<br />

“Well, we’re only six<br />

games behind that,” Smith<br />

quickly deduced. “That just<br />

shows the maturity and hard<br />

work in the offseason to get<br />

us where we are right now.”<br />

Yep, the Hawks are sitting<br />

pretty at the All-Star<br />

break,holding down the allimportant<br />

fourth spot in the<br />

Eastern Conference with a<br />

31-21 record — their best<br />

mark at this point in the<br />

season since 1996-97.<br />

Atlanta went 37-45 a<br />

year ago, which doesn’t<br />

sound all that impressive<br />

until you consider where<br />

the Hawks were coming<br />

from. They went 13-69 during<br />

the 2004-05 season,<br />

Smith’s rookie year.<br />

Showing steady, if<br />

somewhat tedious progress,<br />

the Hawks improved each<br />

of the next three years, culminating<br />

with their first trip<br />

to the playoff this millennium.<br />

They took advantage of<br />

it, too, taking the eventual<br />

NBA champion Boston<br />

Celtics to seven games in a<br />

memorable opening-round<br />

series last spring.<br />

Building off that performance,<br />

the Hawks started<br />

this season with six straight<br />

wins. Even with a few<br />

bumps and stalls along the<br />

way,they have clearly established<br />

themselves as the best<br />

of the bunch in the East after<br />

the Big Three of Boston,<br />

Cleveland and Orlando,<br />

each way out front in the<br />

respective division races.<br />

“We’ve got a lot of guys<br />

that are hungry (from) last<br />

year after getting a taste of<br />

success in the first round<br />

against the world champs,”<br />

coach Mike Woodson said.<br />

The Hawks didn’t make<br />

any major additions after<br />

last season; in fact,they lost<br />

valuable sixth man Josh<br />

Childress, who shockingly<br />

spurned Atlanta’s offer to<br />

sign with a team in Greece.<br />

But new general manager<br />

Rick Sund filled that hole<br />

with a couple of players,<br />

signing journeymen Flip<br />

Murray and Maurice Evans.<br />

Both have played major<br />

roles off the bench along<br />

with backup center Zaza<br />

Pachulia.<br />

Murray, playing with its<br />

sixth team in seven NBA<br />

seasons,is one of six players<br />

averaging in double figures<br />

(10.9 points a game),providing<br />

Woodson with a combo<br />

guard who can spell either<br />

Mike Bibby at the point or<br />

leading scorer Joe Johnson<br />

at the shooting spot.<br />

Johnson, who’s heading<br />

the All-Star Game for the<br />

third year in a row, is the<br />

Hawks’ most prominent<br />

player but Bibby might be<br />

the most valuable. That was<br />

apparent last weekend<br />

when Bibby sat out a game<br />

with an injured foot — and<br />

Atlanta lost by 24 points at<br />

home to the woeful Los<br />

Angeles Clippers.<br />

Bibby returned to play<br />

the last two games before<br />

the break, and the Hawks<br />

won both.<br />

“He’s a big part of what we<br />

have done,”Woodson said.<br />

Bibby, the team’s oldest<br />

starter at age 30, was<br />

acquired from Sacramento<br />

almost exactly one year ago<br />

with the Hawks floundering<br />

and looking as though they<br />

would miss the playoffs for<br />

the ninth year in a row. He<br />

wasn’t in very good shape,<br />

having been sidelined by<br />

thumb and heel injuries,<br />

and was unfamiliar with<br />

Woodson’s system.<br />

After acquiring Bibby,<br />

the Hawks’ scoring average<br />

jumped dramatically (94.8<br />

to 103.5) and they essentially<br />

clinched the final<br />

playoff spot in the East by<br />

ripping off 11 victories in<br />

15 games starting in mid-<br />

March.<br />

COLLEGE FOOTBALL<br />

Jackets will face<br />

challenging slate<br />

T HE A SSOCIATED P RESS<br />

ATLANTA — Coming<br />

off its best season in eight<br />

years, Georgia Tech unveiled<br />

a football schedule that<br />

includes eight bowl teams<br />

from 2008, three contests<br />

against Southeastern Conference<br />

schools and two nationally<br />

televised games on<br />

Thursday night.<br />

The Yellow Jackets will<br />

open the 2009 season Sept. 5<br />

against Jacksonville State,<br />

the first of a six-game home<br />

slate that also includes<br />

Clemson, North Carolina,<br />

Virginia Tech, Wake Forest<br />

and the traditional regularseason<br />

finale against Georgia<br />

on Nov. 28.<br />

This past season, Georgia<br />

Tech snapped a seven-year<br />

losing streak to its state rival<br />

and finished 9-4 under new<br />

coach Paul Johnson. Despite<br />

a loss to LSU in the Chickfil-A<br />

Bowl, the Yellow<br />

Jackets posted their best<br />

record since 2000.<br />

In addition to facing the<br />

Bulldogs, Georgia Tech has<br />

road games against two other<br />

SEC schools, Vanderbilt and<br />

Mississippi State. The<br />

remainder of the road schedule<br />

includes Atlantic Coast<br />

Conference foes Miami,<br />

Florida State, Virginia and<br />

Duke.<br />

“With 11 BCS opponents,<br />

including eight which played<br />

in bowl games last year, our<br />

schedule will be extremely<br />

challenging,” Johnson said<br />

Thursday. “At the same time,<br />

it’s a schedule our players<br />

and fans should be really<br />

excited about. The home<br />

schedule includes a number<br />

of big-time games and many<br />

of our road games are within<br />

driving distance for our<br />

fans.”<br />

The Thursday night<br />

games will be played back to<br />

back: at home against<br />

Clemson on Sept. 10, followed<br />

by the trip to Miami’s<br />

Dolphin Stadium on Sept.<br />

17. This will be the 17th consecutive<br />

season that Georgia<br />

Tech has played in the weeknight<br />

game televised by<br />

ESPN.<br />

The Yellow Jackets will<br />

play six road games for the<br />

first time since 2003 and two<br />

regular-season games in the<br />

state of Florida for the first<br />

time ever.<br />

The most difficult stretch<br />

comes in October, when<br />

Georgia Tech has four of five<br />

games on the road. The lone<br />

home game that month is<br />

against two-time defending<br />

ACC champion Virginia<br />

Tech on Oct. 17.<br />

The only open date on the<br />

schedule is Nov. 21, aweek<br />

before the Yellow Jackets<br />

face Georgia at Bobby Dodd<br />

Stadium.<br />

first round with consecutive<br />

Such scores are rare at<br />

Spyglass and Pebble except<br />

when the wind and rain go<br />

on hiatus, which was the<br />

Q: We have a3 1 / 2 -year-old cocker<br />

spaniel. He is pedigreed, so my husband<br />

is against getting him neutered because<br />

he says he wants to breed him in the<br />

future. Theproblem is thatIamfinding<br />

our doghas some behavioral problems<br />

thatIbelieve maybelessened if he<br />

were fixed. Primarily, he is aggressive<br />

to people whocome to our door or walk<br />

by our house.Heruns and aggressively<br />

barks at them.<br />

Iamconcerned thatifhedoesn’t get<br />

fixed, we’llhavetofind anew home for<br />

him. If youhaveany ideas thatcould be<br />

persuasive with my husband, Iwould<br />

greatlyappreciate the help.<br />

—S.M., via e-mail<br />

A: Territorial and protective aggression<br />

arenormal canine behaviors.<br />

We’reguessing your cockerspaniel also<br />

goes crazy when the mail arrives.<br />

Whatwethink happens in the canine<br />

mind in suchcases is pretty simple: The<br />

dogsees what he interprets as athreat<br />

approachthe home and tells thatthreat<br />

to backaway. Thethreatleaves, and the<br />

dogfeels poweroverthe situation.<br />

Thedog nowfeels he can control<br />

people whoapproach, because when he<br />

threatens them, they backoff.The dog<br />

doesn’t knowthey were leaving anyway.<br />

Then, in the dog’smind, we guess he<br />

thinks something like, “Howdarethey<br />

keep coming backafter what Itold<br />

them?” Thedog probably gets more<br />

serious to makehis point. Your dog’s<br />

confidence goes up every time aperson<br />

passes because he is taking the credit<br />

forthem leaving.<br />

One waytothink about your cocker<br />

spaniel’sbehavior is thathehas simply<br />

found work at home thatheenjoys and<br />

feels good about. Dogs need outlets for<br />

normal canine behaviors.Ifyou don’t<br />

want your cockertocontinue his chosen<br />

line of work,you will need to engage<br />

him in equallysatisfying activities.<br />

Dogs whoare housebound build up<br />

frustrations.Innature, canines wander<br />

(getting plenty of physical exercise) to seek<br />

food (getting plenty of mental exercise).<br />

At maturity,itisnot unusual foraggression<br />

to showupinanadult dogwhen<br />

basic canine needs arenot being met.<br />

We agreewith you thatneutering is a<br />

good first step, reducing your cocker<br />

spaniel’stestosterone levels,whichdo<br />

affect aggression. However,neutering<br />

alone will not changethe behaviors you<br />

describe unless youcombine the surgery<br />

with behaviormodification.<br />

Your dogneeds anew job to replace<br />

his current passion. With help from a<br />

behaviorist or trainer,you can learn<br />

howtochannel thatpassion into new,<br />

satisfying work thatpromotes desirable<br />

home behaviors.<br />

An example is teaching your dogthat<br />

he gets what he wants by doing what<br />

youwant. Dogs do very well as indoor<br />

members of human families when they<br />

work to earntheir keep.Whatmotivates<br />

dogs to learn good behaviors is<br />

learning thatspecific wordssuchas<br />

come,sit, down, stay, wait, fetch, quiet<br />

and moreare the tickets to everything a<br />

dogcould ever want or need.<br />

In order foryour dogtolearnfrom<br />

you, he must be relaxed. Your dogneeds<br />

dailywalks and carrides to newplaces<br />

to help release the mental and physical<br />

stress he gets from living an urban life.<br />

Your dogcannot cooperate and follow<br />

instructions if he is confused.<br />

(Instructions arewords thattell your<br />

dogwhattodoan dreplace trying to tell<br />

your dogwhatnot to do.)<br />

Be fair to your dogbyseeking professional<br />

help from abehaviorist or trainer<br />

to provide your pet with alternatives<br />

to charging people when they walk by.<br />

Not onlywill youand your husbandbe<br />

happier if your pet stops the aggressive<br />

behavior,but youwill also both discover<br />

arelationship with your dogthat makes<br />

everyone happier. —Susan and Dr.<br />

Keeping parrots busy is keytohealth, happiness<br />

By DR. MARTY BECKER<br />

and GINASPADAFORI<br />

Universal Press Syndicate<br />

B<br />

ehaviorists love to recommend<br />

toys forall pets.<br />

Playthings arean important<br />

partof“environmental<br />

enrichment,” afancyphrase<br />

forstrategies thatkeepanimals<br />

from being bored and<br />

turning thatboredom into<br />

destructiveness.<br />

But as important as toys are<br />

fordogsand cats,they’re even<br />

moreessential to those who<br />

spend agreat deal of time in<br />

cagesthatcan neverbebig<br />

enough forapet whose ancestors<br />

had the skyastheir<br />

home.<br />

No parrotcan ever be happy,<br />

in other words, without toys.<br />

Playthings areessential to<br />

maintaining the physical and<br />

mental well-being of parrots<br />

largeand small. They help<br />

keep pet birds fit while<br />

fighting the boredom that<br />

can contribute to behavioral<br />

and health problems suchas<br />

feather-picking.<br />

Although youcan buytoys<br />

by major manufacturers from<br />

the big chain stores,it’salso<br />

nice to choose from the variety<br />

of playthings lovingly<br />

made by acottage industry of<br />

birdlovers and availablefrom<br />

independent birdshops,<br />

through catalogs and on the<br />

Internet. Youcan even make<br />

your own!<br />

Some basic rules apply<br />

when shopping fortoys, to ensurethey<br />

aresuitableand safe<br />

foryour bird. Look forthe following<br />

when choosing bird<br />

toys:<br />

• Materials: Toys aresubject<br />

to your bird’shealthyurge<br />

to destroy,whichmeans safe<br />

components areamust. Wood,<br />

rawhide,plastic or stainlesssteel<br />

chain, rope,cloth and<br />

Let me<br />

PLAY!<br />

Life in acage with nothing to do can lead to health and behavior problems in<br />

parrots.<br />

hardplastic areamong the<br />

morepopular materials that<br />

makeupsafe toys.Choose<br />

toys thatbreak down into<br />

pieces thatcan’t be swallowed.<br />

An exception: Toys made to<br />

hold food items,suchasdried<br />

corncobs or fruit chunks.<br />

With these,eating is alarge<br />

partofthe fun.<br />

• Construction:<br />

Challenging toys,the best<br />

choice forbusy b irds,feature<br />

pieces combined in ways that<br />

makeithardfor the birds to<br />

pull the whole product apart<br />

—but not too hard.<br />

Indestructible toys arenot<br />

Playthings are<br />

essential to<br />

maintaining the<br />

physical and<br />

mental wellbeing<br />

of parrots<br />

large and small.<br />

appropriate formost birds,<br />

because the time and energy<br />

used to rip apartthe gadget is<br />

partofthe reason toys fill<br />

suchaneed.<br />

• Size: Little toys forlittle<br />

birds,big toys forbig birds.A<br />

big birdcan catchand lose a<br />

toe in atoy made forasmaller<br />

bird, and small birds can get<br />

their heads trapped in toys<br />

made fortheir larger relatives.<br />

Some birds areapprehensive<br />

of newtoys. If yoursis<br />

one of them, try to set the toy<br />

outside the cage (but within<br />

eyerange) foraday or two,<br />

and then put it on the floor of<br />

the cage foranother dayor<br />

two. Once your birdstarts to<br />

playwith the toy, youcan go<br />

ahead and attachittothe<br />

cage.(Stainless-steel split-ring<br />

keychains,availableatany<br />

hardwarestore, areasafe,<br />

secureand inexpensive wayto<br />

attachtoystocage bars.)<br />

Don’t overwhelm your pet<br />

with toys.Instead, keep twoor<br />

three in the cage and rotate<br />

newones in regularly.<br />

Shopping forbirdtoyscan<br />

be fun, butthe costs do add up,<br />

especiallyifyou have one of<br />

those gleefullydestructive<br />

parrots.With some creativity,<br />

youcan makeyour money go<br />

further by complementing<br />

store-bought birdtoyswith<br />

alternatives.<br />

Thecardboardcores of<br />

toilet-paper and paper-towel<br />

rolls areperfect forshredding,<br />

especiallyfor smaller birds.<br />

String those tubes together on<br />

athickleather cordand hang<br />

them in your bird’scage.<br />

Other cheapies include ballpoint<br />

pens with the ink tube<br />

removed, ping-pong balls,old<br />

plastic measuring cups and<br />

spoons,and plastic bottle tops.<br />

(Wash in hot soapand water,<br />

rinse well and air-dry before<br />

offering suchitems to your<br />

bird.)<br />

Toothbrushes areanother<br />

bargain toy, sturdy and colorful.<br />

Youcan buycheapones<br />

neworgiveyour pet your<br />

worn ones after running them<br />

through your dishwasher.(Or<br />

hand-washing in soapy water,<br />

followedbyrinsing and airdrying.)<br />

Thehardplastic keys<br />

on aring sold forhuman<br />

babies arealso abudget-wise<br />

buythatbirds love, and real<br />

keys can be just as fun, after a<br />

scrubbing.<br />

Keep your eyes and mind<br />

open forplaythings your bird<br />

can enjoy—you maysurprise<br />

yourself with the possibilities!<br />

DNA tests point to<br />

poop droppers<br />

•People can now can now walk<br />

without worrying about dog poop in<br />

the streets of Petah Tikva, Israel, now<br />

that they’re using science to pick up<br />

where the dogs left off. Veterinary<br />

Economics magazine reports that the<br />

city has launched asix-month trial<br />

that asks residents to take their dogs<br />

to aveterinarian to collect DNA. The<br />

information is then used in adatabase<br />

aimed at matching feces to dogs and<br />

identifying each dog’s owner. Owners<br />

who pick up their dog droppings and<br />

deposit them in specially marked bins<br />

will be eligible for rewards of pet food<br />

coupons and dog toys. Droppings<br />

left in the street could earn the dog’s<br />

owner afine. The city is considering<br />

requiring DNA samples from all dogs<br />

if the trial run is successful.<br />

Cats have 32 muscles in<br />

each ear.<br />

•Quick bites: In the last 4,000<br />

years, no new animals have been<br />

domesticated. …Ashark is the only<br />

fish that can blink with both eyes. …<br />

Asnail can sleep for three years. …<br />

Acat has 32 muscles in each ear.<br />

•Bird flu remains athreat primarily<br />

to poultry, not h umans, among whom<br />

it’s poorly transmitted. Since apeak<br />

in 2006, the number of confirmed<br />

human cases of H5N1 birdflu reported<br />

to the World Health Organization has<br />

tapered off, with 38 cases in 2008 —<br />

the majority in Indonesia —leading<br />

to 29 deaths. That’s atiny fraction of<br />

the number of deaths each year from<br />

regular influenza. Asreported in The<br />

New York Times, athreat remains in<br />

the strain’s potential to mutate into a<br />

truly human disease that the WHO<br />

warns could kill tens of millions.<br />

chewsanything he can<br />

gethis teeth on. What’s<br />

missing from this picture?<br />

Chances are, it’s<br />

exercise.<br />

While environmental<br />

management (suchas<br />

removing barking triggers<br />

or giving adog<br />

something acceptableto<br />

chew)and training your<br />

largebreeds,look at the<br />

sighthounds,suchas<br />

the greyhound, saluki<br />

or even the massive<br />

Irish wolfhound. These<br />

breeds were not developed<br />

to work all day<br />

likethe retriever, husky<br />

and sheepdog, but<br />

rather to go all-out fora<br />

shortperiod of time<br />

and then chill out.<br />

They’re big, butthey’re<br />

couchpotatoes by<br />

strategies areonlypart Exercise is key to adog’s breeds,suchas<br />

of the solution. When<br />

dogs don’t getthe exercise<br />

health and good behavior. Rottweilers,boxers and<br />

Akitas,also have relatively<br />

they need, it causes problems.<br />

If you’re thinking of getting adog,think<br />

very seriouslyabout what breed youwant<br />

and whether youcan provide an active dog<br />

with the exercise it needs.Ifyou can’t honestlysay<br />

thatyour dogwill get30minutes<br />

of heart-thumping aerobic exercise at least<br />

three to four days aweek —dailyisbetter<br />

—then youreallyought to reconsider getting<br />

an active breed.<br />

Instead, consider the alternatives. For<br />

minimal exercise requirements.All<br />

dogs love and need their exercise,but not<br />

all dogs will go crazy if they don’t getaton<br />

of it.<br />

Most small breeds areeasier in the exercise<br />

department, too,not because they<br />

don’t need alot of exercise,but because it’s<br />

not as difficult to exercise asmall dogwith<br />

shortlegs. AYorkie,pug or corgi can get<br />

good exercise in asmall yard or on abrisk<br />

walk. —Gina Spadafori<br />

ON GOOD BEHAVIOR<br />

Surprise your pet<br />

for good response<br />

If youwant your dogtocome<br />

when youcall without thinking<br />

twice,call your dogafew times<br />

dailyfor afun surprise.<br />

Call your dogtoinitiate play,<br />

to getdinner,toleave home for<br />

awalk or car ride,ortoenjoya<br />

petting session. Mix up the<br />

good stuff, so your dognever<br />

knows what to expect but<br />

learns thatit’sall good.<br />

If younever makethe mistakeofcalling<br />

your dogand<br />

then doing something your dog<br />

thinks is unpleasant, your dog<br />

will automaticallycome when<br />

youcall with awagging tail<br />

and happylook on his face.<br />

Always praise your dogas<br />

he’sheading towardyou, since<br />

silence can worrydogs. If he<br />

hesitates,squatdowntohis<br />

levelwith open arms.Good<br />

routines become good habits.<br />

smelled the odor of raw marijuana, a<br />

Controlled Substance, coming from the<br />

searched the vehicle and found cocaine,<br />

a Schedule II Controlled Substance,<br />

marijuana, a set of digital scales, used<br />

to weigh illegal drugs for distribution,<br />

and small plastic baggies, in the vehicle.<br />

The deputy arrested Mr. Yarbrough, and<br />

a passenger, Vanessa Blackmon, for<br />

cocaine, possession of marijuana with<br />

narcotics distribution by Mr. Yarbrough.<br />

Subsequent to her arrest, Ms.<br />

Yarbrough, after being advised of her<br />

Miranda rights, told detectives that<br />

because Mr. Yarbrough lived with his<br />

parents, he stored his drugs for resale in<br />

the above-referenced vehicle. He used<br />

the vehicle to drive to Chattanooga to<br />

buy marijuana and cocaine and then<br />

sold the drugs out of the vehicle in<br />

had received information that Mr.<br />

Yarbrough was selling cocaine and<br />

marijuana from his vehicle. Using an<br />

informant, detectives tives had<br />

previously purchased those drugs from<br />

Mr. Yarbrough from the vehicle. Officers,<br />

subsequent to Mr. Yarbroughs arrest on<br />

February, 2 2009, obtained an arrest<br />

warrant for Mr. Yarbrough for his 2008<br />

drug sales to an informant.<br />
