Super majority
for GOP could
fuel infighting
By Andy Sher
Staff Writer
NASHVILLE — Jubilant Tennessee Republicans
are celebrating the “super majorities” they won in
last week’s legislative elections, but history shows
that may not always guarantee smooth sledding for
the GOP, leaders and observers say.

While the economy sputters along, a growing number
of million-dollar homes are
selling in Chattanooga.
Last week, a North Chattanooga home in the Riverview
neighborhood sold for more
than $4 million. Realtor Jay
Robinson, who was involved
in the sale, said it is the most
expensive residential resale
transaction in Hamilton
County history.
The sale is one of three
multimillion-dollar sales in
the past six months, according to Hamilton County
property records.
And Realtors say the last
12 months have been good for
luxury real estate, following
several sluggish years.
“I think it’s an encouraging sign for the overall local
real estate market,” said Jack
Webb, a Realtor with CryeLeike who was part of a $3.2
million home sale in Riverview earlier this year. “I don’t
think this would have happened three or four years ago.
But I don’t think everything
is back to normal.”

Petraeus case shows FBI’s authority to read your email

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Your emails

The downfall of CIA Director
David Petraeus demonstrates how
easy it is for federal law enforcement agents to examine emails and
computer records if they believe a
crime was committed. With subpoenas and warrants, the FBI and other
investigating agencies routinely gain
access to electronic inboxes and
information about email accounts
offered by Google, Yahoo and other
Internet providers.

■ POLICE DRIVING State
troopers and other law
enforcement officers in
Georgia are being assigned
to brush up on their driving
skills after a spate of crashes. The Brunswick News
reports that state officials
have grown so concerned
about the number of accidents caused by emergency
vehicles they are instating
a mandatory training program. Georgia State Patrol
troopers will start receiving
annual, four-hour driving
courses this month. According to the Governor’s Office
of Highway Safety, there
were 2,475 crashes involving
on-duty officers statewide
in 2011, resulting in three
deaths and 386 people being
injured.
■ VOTER ID Only a fraction of voters complained
they were restricted from
casting ballots on Election
Day because of Tennessee’s
controversial and highly
publicized new voter photo
ID law, but opponents of the
law insist that even “low”
numbers are unacceptable.

■ BABY DEATH There still
are no charges filed in the
June death of a 3-monthold who suffered “major
trauma” to his brain under
circumstances investigators
and medical officials called
“suspicious.” That could
change with the release
of Colin Eugene Russell’s
autopsy, Marion County,
Tenn., detective Beth Schindel said Monday. The results
will be turned over to the
district attorney’s office
to determine if there was
criminal wrongdoing in the
infant’s death, but Schindel
could not say when those
results could come.
■ HASLAM POLL A recent
poll shows Republican
Gov. Bill Haslam has strong
bipartisan support among
Tennessee voters. The Middle Tennessee State Univer-
sity poll shows Haslam has
a 76 percent approval rating
among independents heading into the third year of his
term, 75 percent of Republicans like what he’s doing,
and 54 percent of Democrats
approve. More than two in
three voters, or 68 percent,
say they approve of the
way Haslam is handling his
job as governor. Fourteen
percent disapprove, and
16 percent say they don’t
know. Jason Reineke, the
poll’s associate director,
said Haslam’s numbers are
impressive “considering the
partisan climate regarding
national politics.”

Judge halves slander verdict
won by casino mogul Wynn
LOS ANGELES — A judge
slashed a damage verdict favoring casino mogul Steve Wynn in
a slander case against “Girls Gone
Wild” founder Joe Francis.
Superior Court Judge Joanne
O’Donnell issued the ruling
Friday invalidating certain
claims and trimming the damage amount from $40 million
to $19 million. The move comes
after lawyers for Francis argued
that O’Donnell erred when she
allowed jurors to consider allegations that Francis slandered
Wynn in comments made to
TV’s “Good Morning America”
on the eve of trial.
“Sesame Street” muppet Elmo and puppeteer Kevin Clash.
Elmo puppeteer accused
of underage relationship
NEW YORK — The puppeteer who performs as Elmo on
“Sesame Street” is taking a leave
of absence from the popular kids’
show following allegations that
he had a relationship with a 16year-old boy.
Sesame Workshop says puppeteer Kevin Clash denies the
charges, which were first made
in June by the alleged partner,
who by then was 23.
In a statement issued Monday,
Sesame Workshop said its investigation found the allegation of
underage conduct to be unsubstantiated. But it said Clash exer-
cised “poor judgment” and was
disciplined for violating company policy regarding Internet
usage. It offered no details.
“I had a relationship with (the
accuser),” Clash told TMZ. “It
was between two consenting
adults, and I am deeply saddened
that he is trying to make it into
something it was not.”
The 52-year-old Clash has
been a “Sesame Street” puppeteer since 1984. At his request,
Clash has been granted a leave of
absence in order to “protect his
reputation,” Sesame Workshop
said. No duration for the leave
was specified.

War widow sues over film

NASHVILLE — A widow
of a U.S. Army soldier killed in
a blast in Afghanistan has sued
Fox Cable Networks and the

Kevin Casey Roberts, who was
serving with the 4th Brigade

Division when an improvised
explosive device struck his
vehicle in Khost province in
Afghanistan in 2008.

at least $750,000 in damages and
wants a judge to prevent the film
from airing again. She also wants
the cable network to stop using

The documentary was produced and distributed by the

Scott Grogin, a spokesman
for Fox Networks, said the film

“The filmmakers got permission from the military to shoot

NBC’s ‘Revolution’ drama
snares Led Zeppelin songs
Led Zeppelin band members Jason Bonham, Robert Plant,
John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page, from left.
LOS ANGELES — What tunes
fit a post-apocalyptic society? For
NBC’s freshman drama “Revolution,” the answer is Led Zeppelin’s
“Kashmir” and “Since I’ve Been
Loving You.” The songs will be
featured in next week’s episode
of “Revolution.” On the same day,
Led Zeppelin’s “Celebration Day”
album and a companion documentary on DVD will be released.
Corporate synergy led to the
deal for the band that rarely allows
use of its music in Hollywood
projects. “Revolution” is produced
in association with Warner Bros.
Television, and Led Zeppelin has
a deal with Warner Music Group’s
publishing arm.
The Led Zeppelin-accented
episode of “Revolution” will air
10:01 p.m. EST Monday, Nov. 19. A
“Revolution” promo spot featuring
“Kashmir” will air throughout this

Alzheimer’s precursors found at earlier age

a hallmark of Alzheimer’s.
Researchers detected higherthan-normal levels of amyloid
in the spinal fluid of these
young adults. They found
suggestions that memoryencoding parts of the brain
were already working harder
than in normal brains. And
they identified indications
that brain areas known to be
affected by Alzheimer’s may
be smaller than in those who
do not have the Alzheimer’s
gene.
The studies in Lancet
Neurology used several tests,
Cox Newspapers
Citizens Energy workers continue their investigation
Monday afternoon by digging into the front sidewalk
looking for a possible explanation into the explosion of
a house in Indianapolis.
The owner of one of the
homes that was destroyed said
there was a problem with the
furnace in the last few weeks.
John Shirley, 50, of Noblesville, told The Associated
Press that he received a text
message within the last week
and a half from his daughter,
who complained that the furnace in the home where she
lived with her mother and
her mother’s boyfriend had
broken. The malfunction had
forced them to stay in a hotel,
the girl said.
When Shirley asked if the
furnace had been fixed, his
daughter said yes. He said he
wasn’t aware of any additional
problems until he heard from
his daughter again Sunday
morning.
“I get a text from my
daughter saying ‘Dad, our
home is gone.’ Then I called
my ex-wife and she said what
happened,” he said.
More women drivers on road than men
WA S H I N G T O N —
Women have passed men
on the nation’s roads. More
women than men now have
driver’s licenses, a reversal of
a longtime gender gap behind
the wheel that transportation researchers say is likely
to have safety and economic
implications.
If current trends continue,
the gap will only widen. The
share of teens and young
adults of both sexes with
driver’s licenses is declining, but the decline is greater
for young men, according
to a study by the University
of Michigan’s Transportation Research Institute. The
study looked at gender trends
in driver’s licenses between
1995 and 2010.
“The changing gender
demographics will have major
implications on the extent and
nature of vehicle demand,
energy consumption, and road
safety,” predicted Michael
Sivak, co-author of the study.
Women are more likely than
men to purchase smaller, safer
and more fuel-efficient cars; to
drive less, and to have a lower
fatality rate per distance driven, he said.
Over the 15 years the study
covered, the share of men
ages 25 to 29 years old with
driver’s licenses dropped 10.6
percent. The share of women
of the same age with driver’s
licenses declined by about half
that amount, 4.7 percent.
Male drivers outnumbered
women drivers from the
moment the first Ford Model
T rolled off the assembly line
in 1908, the year the automobile became popular, and
through most of the last century. In the 1950s, when only
about half of adult women
had driver’s licenses, jokes
about women drivers were a
staple of comedians.
But the gap gradually
closed. By 1995, men with
driver’s licenses slightly out-
numbered women, 89.2 million to 87.4 million. By 2010,
105.7 million women had
licenses, compared with 104.3
million men.
Likewise, in 1995 men with
driver’s licenses outnumbered
women in every age group
except those over 70. By
2010, women outnumbered
men among drivers ages 45
and older and between ages
25 and 29 years old. The share
of older women who are also
hanging onto their driver’s
licenses has also increased.
“I want to be in my own
car for as long as possible. I
want to be independent for
as long as I can,” said Diane
Spitaliere, 58, a retired government worker in Alexandria, Va.
Male drivers under age 44
are still slightly more numerous than women of the same
age, but that’s only because
young men outnumber young
women in the general population, the study said.

If you answered not
much, there’s still a chance
to redeem yourself.
Today is World Kindness
Day, which kicks off a week
of opportunities for wouldbe do-gooders.
Indeed, coming off a contentious presidential campaign that seemed to drag on
forever and dealing with the
everyday stress of work and
traffic, we can all use a little
more tenderness.
“We hope that people are
kind every day of the year,
but this is the one day of the
year when we can celebrate
and give people an excuse to
do something a little extra,”
said Brooke Jones, manager
of Colorado-based The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation.
Even when there is a
major disaster such as Hurricane Sandy, for example, stories emerge about heroes and
acts of kindness. “Those stories fall a little bit down the
list,” she said, “but they’re the
ones that inspire people.”
If you’re looking for ways
to practice charitable behavior, there’s no shortage of
sources and opportunities.
There are books and websites about kindness. There’s

No charges were immediately filed in the case, but the
six children, most with physical or mental disabilities or
both, were removed from the
home, and four were sent to
the hospital.
Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital in Cleveland
said the four were still at the

Prosecutors called the
claim about the refrigerator
“crazy.” They alleged Tata had

she left the children alone to

in February 2011. The resulting fire also injured three children.
Tata, 24, is charged with
four counts of felony murder
but is being tried on only one
of the counts: for the death of
16-month-old Elias Castillo.
She faces up to life in prison

her guilty on several lesser

Scientists studying
Alzheimer’s disease are
increasingly finding clues that
the brain begins to deteriorate
years before a person shows
symptoms of dementia.
Now, research on a large
extended family of 5,000
people in Colombia with a
genetically driven form of
Alzheimer’s has found evidence that the precursors of
the disease begin even earlier
than previously thought and
that this early brain deterioration occurs in more ways than
has been documented before.
The studies, published this
month in the journal Lancet
Neurology, found that the
brains of people destined to
develop Alzheimer’s clearly
show changes at least 20 years
before they have any cognitive
impairment. In the Colombian
family, researchers saw these
changes in people ages 18 to
26; on average, members of
this family develop symptoms
of mild cognitive impairment
at 45 and of dementia at 53.

Petraeus told biographer to stop harassing friend GOP
Monday.
Attempts to reach
Broadwell since Petraeus
resigned Friday have been
unsuccessful.
Federal investigators have
said Broadwell sent a series
of emails to Kelley from an
anonymous account telling
her to stop behavior she saw
as overly friendly toward
Petraeus, or she would be
exposed. The law enforcement officials, who spoke
on condition of anonymity, said the emails indicate
Broadwell felt jealous of the
other woman.
The emails did not specifically cite Kelley’s friendship
with Petraeus, according to a
person close to Kelley, who
also spoke on condition of
anonymity. She did not know
who was sending them and
why.
Kelley contacted her
friend in the FBI, who took
her concerns to the bureau.
Investigators were later
able to trace the emails to
Broadwell.
In Broadwell’s account,
investigators found emails
from Petraeus, and given the
personal nature of some of
them, believed at first that
they were being sent by someone who had hacked into the
CIA director’s account.
Kelley was informed that
Broadwell was the sender,
although she told investigators that she did not know
the woman, according to the
person close to Kelley.
At some point, Kelley told
Petraeus about the emails and
named Broadwell as the person who had sent them. That
may have prompted the CIA
director to send his own emails
to Broadwell, telling her to
stop the harassment, the law
enforcement officials said.
People close to Petraeus
say his affair with Broadwell
ended four months ago,
around the time he emailed
her about the harassment.
When confronted by FBI
agents about the emails,
Broadwell acknowledged
the affair with Petraeus and
turned over her computer to
investigators. Petraeus, who
has been married to Holly
Petraeus for 38 years, also
acknowledged the extramarital relationship in his interview with the FBI.
By late summer, the FBI
informed the Justice Department about the case. Federal
prosecutors decided there
was not enough evidence to
file charges against Petraeus, who was interviewed by
investigators during the week
of Oct. 21. Broadwell was
interviewed by agents for the
last time the week before.
FBI Director Robert
Mueller’s top aide was told
Petraeus was having an extramarital affair that might have
compromised national security a week before the Nov.
6 elections, a congressional
official said Monday.
The disclosure raises
fresh questions about why
the FBI leadership withheld the information from
the nation’s top intelligence
official and the congressional
committees that oversee the
U.S. intelligence community
until after President Barack
Obama won re-election.
McClatchy News Service
contributed to this story.
The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee,
Patrick Leahy, has proposed
changing the law to require
a warrant for all Internet
communications regardless
of their age. But law enforcement officials have resisted
because they said it would
undercut their ability to
catch criminals.
A subpoena is usually sufficient to require Internet
companies to reveal names
and any other information
that they have that would
identify the owner of a particular email account. Google,
which operates the widely
used Gmail service, complied
with more than 90 percent of
the nearly 12,300 requests it
received in 2011 from the U.S.
government for data about
its users, according to figures
from the company.
Even if a Gmail account
is created with a fictitious
name, there are other ways
to track down the user. Logs
of when messages are sent
reveal the Internet address
the user used to log onto
the account. Matching times
and dates with locations
allow investigators to piece
together the chain.
A Gmail account figured
prominently in the FBI inves-
tigation that led to Petraeus’
stunning resignation last
week as the nation’s spy chief.
Petraeus, a retired Army general, stepped down after he
confessed to an extramarital
affair with Paula Broadwell,
an Army Reserve officer and
his biographer.
The inquiry began earlier this year after Jill Kelley,
a Florida woman who was
friends with Petraeus and his
wife, Holly, began receiving
harassing emails. Kelley is
a Tampa socialite. That is
where the military’s Central Command and Special
Operations Command are
located.
Petraeus served as commander at Central Command
from 2008 to 2010.
FBI agents eventually
determined that the email trail
led to Broadwell, according
to two federal law enforcement officials, who spoke
on condition of anonymity
because the sources were not
authorized to speak about the
matter on the record. As they
looked further, the FBI agents
came across a private Gmail
account that used an alias
name. On further investigation, the account turned out
to be Petraeus’.
The contents of several
of the exchanges between
Petraeus and Broadwell
suggested they were having an affair, according to
the officials. Investigators
determined that no security
breach had occurred, but
continued their investigation into whether Petraeus
had any role in the harassing
emails that Broadwell had
sent to Kelley, which was a
criminal investigation.
Petraeus and Broadwell
apparently used a trick,
known to terrorists and teenagers alike, to conceal their
email traffic.
One of the law enforcement officials said they did
not transmit all of their
communications as emails
from one’s inbox to the
other’s inbox. Rather, they
composed some emails in a
Gmail account and instead of
transmitting them, left them
in a draft folder or in an electronic “dropbox.” Then the
other person could log onto
the same account and read
the draft emails there. This
avoids creating an email trail
which is easier to trace. It’s a
technique that al-Qaida terrorists began using several
years ago and teenagers in
many countries have since
adopted.
dated April 2011.
Emmer could not be
reached for comment Monday.
He worked in the downtown area during the midnight shift, where he routinely answered calls at bars
where people sometimes
resisted arrest. Officers who
work in areas that average
higher numbers of arrests
and response calls often
have more incidents on their
records, said police Chief
Bobby Dodd.
In July, Emmer responded to the Salvation Army
on McCallie Avenue after a
federal inmate, Adam Tatum,
was kicking the door of an
office at the facility. Federal inmates are sometimes
housed at Salvation Army.
Tatum was armed with a
knife, and Officers Emmer and
Adam Cooley were among
the officers who responded.
An arrest report states the
officers were “in fear for their
lives after Mr. Tatum was not
feeling any pain.”
By the time Tatum was
taken into custody, he had
suffered severe injuries to his
legs, including a compound
fracture, said his defense
attorney, Robin Flores.
Cooley, who is described
as a model officer in reviews,
was also let go last week after
administrators reviewed the
video of the arrest.
“This decision I made
wasn’t to demonize the officers,” said Dodd. “I don’t
know them personally. I’m
told they’re good people by all
accounts. It’s not about them
personally. It’s about what
they did that day in that one
incident. Sometimes there are
things so bad you can’t continue to be a police officer.”
Tatum was charged with
disorderly conduct, resisting
arrest, five counts of assault
and possession of marijuana.
He is serving a consecutive
11-month 29-day sentence for
the assault charges in Silverdale Detention Facility, said
Flores, who said he plans to
appeal the case.
“When [the department]
does take proactive action, it’s
when the evidence is overwhelming,” said Flores, who
said the department does not
routinely take enough action
against officers.
Since November 2010,
there have been 45 incidents
of excessive force investigated by the Chattanooga Police
Department. Of those, three
cases remain open, including Tatum’s. Two complaints
were found to be sustained,
but a vast majority of officers
are exonerated, which means
the department found their
actions were justified.
“The facts of the case are
the facts of the case,” Dodd
said in response to Flores’
accusation. “I’m not going
to make up details to defend
them or make up details to
punish them.”
After the incident at the
Salvation Army, Blaine called
a meeting in late August with
the department’s use-of-force
expert and district supervisors to evaluate the pattern
of complaints and review the
video.
After Dodd observed the
video, Emmer and Cooley
were put on light duty and
taken off patrol. Cooley had
one prior complaint which
was unfounded.
Cooley was credited with
helping to close 807 Fire and
Ice, a nightclub on Market
Street that had numerous
complaints of assaults last
year. In his review of Cooley,
a supervisor said he “is an
outstanding officer who has
a bright future at our department.”
Cooley declined to comment Monday.
Dodd said neither officer
had a bad record with the
department but added that
it was a unanimous decision
to let the officers go.
“I can’t release them back
to the public and explain it,”
he said. “In my mind, it can’t
be justified.”
The department has
not released the video that
captured Tatum’s arrest or
any reports because a third
officer is being investigated
and the FBI is reviewing
the case for any potential
criminal charges. When the
investigation is wrapped up,
the information will be made
available, Dodd said.

The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — Former CIA director David
Petraeus told the woman
with whom he was having
an extramarital affair to stop
sending threatening emails
to a family friend, Jill Kelley,
after a federal investigation
determined who was behind
the harassment.
The move by Petraeus
came in midsummer after
Kelley contacted a friend
who worked as an FBI agent
in Tampa, Fla., where she
lived, beginning a process
that would eventually force
the former four-star former
general to resign last week.
The new information,
provided by two law enforcement officials, helps fill in
a summer timeline when
Petraeus’ email account
became the subject of a federal investigation into whether national security had been
compromised during his
affair with his biographer,
Paula Broadwell.
Broadwell, a former Harvard University researcher
who focused her dissertation
on Petraeus’ military career,
hired longtime Washington

a judge is required. This is a
higher standard that requires
proof of probable cause that
a crime is being committed.
Public interest groups are
pressing Congress for the
law to be updated because
it was written a quarter-century ago when most emails
were deleted after a few
months because the cost of
storing them indefinitely
was prohibitive. Now, “cloud
computing” services provide
huge amounts of inexpensive
storage capacity. Other technological advances, such as
mobile phones, have dramatically increased the amount
of communications that are
kept in electronic warehouses and can be reviewed by
law enforcement authorities
carrying a subpoena.
“Technology has evolved
in a way that makes the content of more communications
available to law enforcement
without judicial authorization, and at a very low level
of suspicion,” said Greg
Nojeim, a senior counsel at
the Center for Democracy &
Technology.
Officers
more use-of-force incidents.
Supervisors review the complaints to determine if there
is an issue.
Emmer has been flagged
several times, said Capt.
Susan Blaine, who oversees
internal affairs.
In a June case, Emmer
reportedly punched a drunken man, Richard McPeek,
twice while arresting him for
disorderly conduct.
“It is difficult to understand why it was necessary
to hit Mr. McPeek twice in
the face when the only charges on Mr. McPeek are public
intoxication,” writes Blaine.
“I also find it questionable
as to why Officer Emmer felt
he had to immediately punch
Mr. McPeek twice in the face
when there were three other
officers right there with him.
It seems four officers should
have been able to arrest one
extremely intoxicated individual.”
The complaint was ultimately ruled unfounded
because there wasn’t enough
evidence to rule either way,
according to the report, but
Emmer’s arrest report and
use of force report showed
inconsistencies.
“I am concerned about
the number of use of force
reports but only monitoring
it at this time,” one supervisor writes in an evaluation

In the House, Republicans
grew their majority by six
seats as well, giving them 70
votes, the fourth highest percentage gain in the country. In
the Senate, the state tied for
second place with Alaska in
percentage growth.
Republican strengths over
the past two years gave them
advantages in votes to eliminate collective bargaining
for teachers and eliminate
the estate tax. But it also
generated divisions among
GOP members in areas such
as school vouchers and a
National Rifle Association
bill that would have allowed
employees to store firearms
in their locked vehicles on
company property.
“I think we’ll be as unified as possible, but with
that many members there’ll
be diverse views,” House
Majority Leader Gerald
McCormick, R-Chattanooga,
said. “We won’t march in
lock step. ... I just think the
sheer numbers of it make it
inevitable we’re not going to
agree on everything every
time.”
Republican Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey, of Blountville, who also is lieutenant
governor, has acknowledged
there could be a downside at
times to a super majority.
“It’s a natural tendency in
any organization ... that when
one party gets dominant, then
the fighting becomes within
and not with the opposing
party,” Ramsey said.
Sy m b o l i c a l ly s p e a king, having a super majority and absolute power is a
pretty heady experience for
the GOP. Republicans last
enjoyed one during postCivil War Reconstruction
days in the 1860s.
Until the mid-2000s,
however, Democrats ruled
the roost and held super
majorities on any number of
occasions, the most recently
being in the 1960s.
But that sometimes led to
factional infighting.
The best-known instance
occurred in 1987 when thenDemocratic Speaker John
Wilder lost the speakership
race in the Democratic Caucus but won on the Senate
floor with a coalition of
conservative white and liberal black Democrats and
all the Republicans. Wilder
held power until 2007 when
Republicans under Ramsey,
along with a single Democrat, ousted him.
While Republicans see
the benefits of total control,
House Minority Leader Craig
Fitzhugh, D-Ripley, warned
they will face their own
problems.
“There are essentially three
parties out there now: the
Republicans, the Democrats
and the tea party,” Fitzhugh
said last week. “We know
who’s driving the car, and it’s
the Republicans, and we clearly understand that, but they’re
the ones that have it on their
shoulders right now.”

Witnesses differ with U.S. over when attack began
McClatchy Newspapers
BENGHAZI, Libya — Witnesses in Benghazi, Libya, provide a
chronology for the Sept. 11 attack on
the U.S. consulate here that differs
in significant ways from timelines
released by U.S. officials in Washington, raising more questions about
how the assault unfolded and the
speed with which Americans at a
nearby CIA annex responded to calls
for help from the consulate.
The versions of the attack told here
indicate that the last visitor who met
with Ambassador Chris Stevens, who
died in the assault on the consulate,
departed at least 45 minutes earlier
than U.S. officials in Washington have
said. Witnesses here also suggest that
the attack may have begun as many
as 15 minutes earlier than officials in
Washington have said.
Witnesses also said there was no
indication that anyone in the U.S. diplomatic compound was aware before
the assault that protests had broken
out in neighboring Egypt over an
inflammatory film about the Prophet
Muhammad that was produced in the
United States.
The differences in the timelines
could mean that CIA officers stationed in a compound just 1.2 miles
away may have waited as long as 40
minutes before setting out to assist
the besieged consulate and might not
have arrived there until more than an
hour after the attack began. A timeline
released by the CIA says help was
dispatched after just 25 minutes and
that it took the rescue squad 25 minutes to arrive.
At a minimum, the witness
accounts suggest that after two
months, the U.S. government still
may not know the basic sequence of
events and when key moments in the
Libyan military guards check one of the burnt out buildings at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya,
on Sept. 14, three days after an attack on the consulate.
assault occurred.
But the timelines that have been
offered by the State Department, the
CIA and the Defense Department
offer inconsistent versions of what
took place during the deadliest assault
on a U.S. diplomatic compound in
more than three decades. And any
account of what meetings or discussions, if any, took place at CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., as the events
in Benghazi unfolded is still missing.
According to witnesses, Stevens
had arrived in Benghazi on Sept. 10
for a four-day visit, his first extensive
stay in this city since he assumed the
ambassador’s post in May.
On the evening of Sept. 11, Stevens
met with the Turkish consul here, Ali
Sait Akin, in what everyone agrees
was his last official act. While State
Department officials said Stevens
HEARINGS ON ATTACK
What took place in Benghazi
on the night of Sept. 11 and
the early morning of Sept. 12
is the subject of at least three
congressional hearings this week,
beginning with a closed session
of the Senate Foreign Affairs
committee today and ending
with separate sessions of the
Senate and House intelligence
committees Thursday.
escorted the Turkish consul out of
the compound at 8:30 p.m., a guard at
the compound and an official familiar with the meeting said Akin left at
7:45 p.m.
A 31-year-old security guard
employed by a British contracting
company, the Blue Mountain Group,
said he distinctly remembered the
time of the meeting because about
a half-hour before Akin was scheduled to meet with Stevens, the
ambassador approached the guard,
introduced himself and asked what
security measures were needed to
allow the Turkish consul to enter,
including what kind of badge the
Turkish delegation needed to enter
the compound. Stevens addressed
the guard in Arabic and told him
Akin would arrive at 6:30 p.m. for
an hourlong meeting.
As the guard and Stevens spoke,
the protests in Cairo had been going
on for nearly two hours. Stevens
didn’t mention the film to the guard,
and no one from the compound
warned the guard about possible
protests throughout the night, the
guard said.
Akin arrived on time and the men
met for an hour, the guard said. While
they discussed security broadly, they
didn’t talk about the film, the protests
or the Sept. 11 anniversary, an official
familiar with the meeting, who spoke
only on the condition of the anonymity because of the sensitivity of the
subject, told McClatchy Newspapers.
After the meeting, Stevens and Akin
chatted for about 15 minutes as they
strolled around the compound, and
Akin left at 7:45 p.m.
The guard made a note of the
time of Akin’s arrival and departure
in a book in which the guards tracked
all movements, from official visits to
when the cook arrived, he said.
As of four days ago, no U.S. or
Libyan official had questioned Akin
about his meeting with Stevens,
according to the official familiar with
the meeting.
State Department officials have
said the attack started at 9:40 p.m., a
time that the CIA timeline also sets
as the approximate beginning. A Pentagon account of its response said the
assault started at 9:42 p.m.
But two guards at the compound
told McClatchy that the attack began
earlier; one said at 9:25 p.m. and the
other at 9:35.
One guard, who was at the main
gate and placed the assault’s beginning at 9:25 p.m., said a colleague
stationed at a side gate about 25 yards
away had alerted him by radio that
attackers were approaching. The
guard said he stuck his head out a
window in the compound’s wall and
saw the attackers on one side of the
road, near where his colleague was
stationed, and Libyan police on the
other side of the road fleeing. He said
he hit the alarm button to alert the
compound that it was under attack.
CIA’s station in Benghazi well-kept secret and quickly cleaned, repaired
BENGHAZI, Libya — Just
more than a mile from the
group of villas that served as
the U.S. consulate in Benghazi
was another set of U.S.-leased
villas — an annex where the
CIA had set up shop, and from
where would-be rescuers set
out on the night of Sept. 11 in
response to the attack at the
consulate.
Despite speculation to the
contrary, no Libyan or nonAmerican diplomats stationed
in Benghazi say they knew of
the existence or purpose of
the CIA annex.
Top Libyan security officials
in Benghazi and Tripoli, as
well as diplomatic representa-
tives who worked closely with
Americans here, said they had
no idea about the compound,
which unlike the consulate had
no signs of American life outside its tall gates. There were
no concrete barriers in front
or barbed wire on the top of
its concrete wall.
Libya’s deputy interior minister, Omar al-Khadrawy, and
the deputy interior minister
for Benghazi, Saleh Daghman,
told McClatchy Newspapers
they didn’t know that the CIA
had kept a base there. Neither
did the second in command of
Benghazi’s largest revolutionary brigade, the Libyan Shield.
Two consuls from allied
nations who met frequently
with Americans said they
didn’t know the CIA annex
existed until after the deadly
Sept. 11 attack.
During an Oct. 26 question-and-answer session at
the University of Denver,
Paula Broadwell, who’s been
named as the woman whose
affair with CIA Director David
Petraeus led to his resignation
Friday, told the audience that
two Libyan militiamen were
being held at the CIA annex
and suggested that the attackers were targeting the annex,
rather than the consulate.
“Now, I don’t know if a lot
of you heard this, but the CIA
annex had actually taken a
couple of Libyan militia mem-
bers prisoner, and they think
that the attack on the consulate was an effort to try to get
these prisoners back. So that’s
still being vetted,” she said.
But most here don’t believe
that. A guard, who stayed
around the consulate for the
duration of the assault, said he
thought that the subsequent
attack on the CIA compound
happened because the attackers had followed the Americans who were fleeing the
consulate to the CIA annex.
“They came to kill Americans,” he said.
The assault at the consulate
began somewhere between
9:25 and 9:40 p.m. The CIA
annex came under fire twice
in subsequent hours, according to a timeline released
by the CIA. The first attack
consisted of what the agency
called “sporadic small arms
fire and RPG rounds,” a reference to rocket-propelled
grenades. That assault lasted
about 90 minutes, from 11:30
p.m. to 1 a.m.
The second, more serious
attack took place at 5:15 the
next morning, according to the
CIA, when assailants lobbed
mortar rounds into the compound for 11 minutes. It was
during this assault that CIA
contractors Glen Doherty and
Tyrone Woods, both former
Navy SEALs, were killed.
Since the attacks, events
have unfolded very differently
for the two compounds.
At the consulate, gawkers
and looters still could enter
the property, and no repairs
had been made to the burnedout buildings.
But at the CIA safe house,
American officials cleared
their property within days of
the attack. By Sept. 14, three
new families had moved into
the four houses that make up
the compound, according to a
gatekeeper at the door. Nearby residents said the landlord
wanted Libyans living there as
soon as possible, so his property wouldn’t be destroyed by
extremists angry that the CIA
had been stationed there.
Powerful Afghan rallies followers, stoking concern in Kabul
HERAT, Afghanistan —
One of the most powerful former mujahedeen commanders
in Afghanistan, Ismail Khan,
is calling on his followers to
reorganize and defend the
country as Western militaries
withdraw, in a public demonstration of faltering confidence
in the national government
and the Western-built Afghan
National Army.
Khan is one of the strongest
of a group of warlords who
defined the country’s recent
history in battling the Soviets,
the Taliban and one another,
and who then were brought
into President Hamid Karzai’s
Cabinet as a symbol of unity.
Now, in announcing that he is
remobilizing his forces, Khan

The confrontation fueled
new fears that the Syrian

with grave consequences for
the region. The fighting has
already spilled into Lebanon,

ISLAMABAD — Pakistan on Monday accused
Afghan forces of killing
at least four civilians in a
cross-border shelling attack,
increasing tension just as a
senior Afghan official visited
Islamabad to discuss peace
talks with the Taliban.
Pakistan is seen as critical to reaching a peace deal
with the Taliban because
of its historical ties to the

complicated by significant
levels of distrust among the
major players — Afghani-

Politics
Congress faces agenda of unfinished business
gets and aiding farmers still
reeling from the summer’s
drought.
The first days back will
be a mix of old and new —
choosing down-ballot leaders
in the Senate while the 12 new
members, three Republicans,
eight Democrats and one
independent, are introduced
to their colleagues. The
House will welcome some 70
new members who will get
a crash course on how Congress operates with a class on
ethics Wednesday.
While the nation’s voters endorsed the status quo
of divided government — a
Democratic president and
Senate, a Republican House
— Obama cruised to re-election and his emboldened
programs totaling $110 billion
next year.
Obama meets with congressional leaders at the
White House on Friday.
Democrats and Republicans
recognize the urgency, but the
demands remain unchanged.
Crucial in the House this
week is passage of legislation that would end Cold War
trade restrictions so that U.S.
exporters can take advantage
of the lowered tariffs and
greater market access that
accompany Russia’s entry
into the World Trade Organization.
The measure has been a
top priority of U.S. business
groups seeking to expand
business in the growing Russian economy.
The Senate holds a procedural vote today on a sportsmen’s bill that Republicans
weren’t keen on voting on
before the election and handing a headline-grabbing win
to Sen. Jon Tester of Montana,
then considered one of the
most vulnerable Democrats.
Tester won anyway.
His bill combines 19 measures favorable to outdoorsmen.
A five-year farm bill passed
by the Senate and by House
committee last summer will
either have to be extended
into next year or passed in
the remaining weeks of the
session. The 2008 farm bill
expired Sept. 30.
The bill’s only real chance
for passage is if lawmakers
decide to use its savings as
part of negotiations on the
“fiscal cliff.” The Senate bill
would save $23 billion over
10 years and the House Agriculture Committee bill would
save $35 billion over 10 years.
Legislation setting defense
policy remains undone, and
the House and Senate Armed
Services committees were
working informally in recent
weeks on a bipartisan bill that
both chambers could pass.
The House approved legislation months ago, but the
Senate hasn’t acted. The
freestanding Senate bill has
attracted more than 70 amendments, and Majority Leader
Harry Reid, D-Nev., is pressing for a time agreement that
would limit amendments.
Deficit talks to test GOP focus on tax rates
Secretary of Defense Leon
Panetta speaks to the
media during a briefing
Monday.
that a faster withdrawal pace
will signal defeat.
Panetta made his remarks
to reporters on his plane on
the way to Australia, the first
stop on a weeklong trip aimed
at strengthening U.S. military
relationships in the Pacific and
Asia. Panetta, along with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton, is to attend a U.S.-Australian security and diplomatic
meeting in Perth today and
Wednesday.
Panetta is then to travel
to Thailand and a summit of
Southeast Asian nations in
Cambodia before stops in both
countries by President Barack
Obama and Clinton.
One of Panetta’s main messages to nations in the region
is that the administration’s
“pivot” to Asia is real and bolstered by a commitment to
military spending in the region.
But defense officials say that
what they prefer to call the
“rebalancing” to Asia would
be undermined by deep cuts
to the Pentagon budget should
Congress not reach a fiscal deal
by the end of the year.
WA S H I N G T O N —
Republican leaders say the
government can raise tax
“revenues” without raising
tax “rates.” But they have yet
to detail how they would pursue it.
The distinction might mean
little to Americans who end
up with larger tax bills even
if their tax rates don’t change.
This politically tricky trade-off
is about to take center stage
in negotiations over how to
reduce the federal deficit and
avoid going over the “fiscal
cliff” in just seven weeks.
The White House says
wealthy Americans must pay
a higher tax rate to help produce more revenue to lower
the deficit. Congressional
Republicans refuse, and many
want tax rates to fall instead.
But they say they are open to
other means of higher tax collections, which might include
limits to itemized deductions.
About one-third of U.S.
households itemize deductions rather than take the
standard deduction. Some of
these itemized deductions,
such as the one for mortgage
interest payments, are popular
and deeply ingrained in the
American culture.
Many Republican lawmakers are tip-toeing around the
issue. But Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., warns of possibly
huge changes affecting millions of people.
Chambliss told the Atlanta
Journal Constitution that federal revenues can be increased
significantly without raising
tax rates, by limiting deductions. But he noted the popularity of the most important

for mortgage interest, charity
gifts and health care costs.

HICKAM AIR FORCE
BASE, Hawaii — White House
and Pentagon officials hope to
determine within weeks the
number of U.S. troops that
will remain for the long term
in Afghanistan after the bulk
of U.S. forces come home in
2014, Defense Secretary Leon
E. Panetta said Monday.
That number will in turn
determine the pace of the
drawdown over the next
two years for the 68,000 U.S.
forces currently in Afghanistan. Administration officials
have never publicly discussed
what number might remain,
although in Iraq, U.S. commanders originally wanted as
many as 20,000 troops to stay
behind, but a deal with the
Iraqi government collapsed
and all U.S. forces came home
late last year.
Panetta said that Gen. John
Allen, the top U.S. and NATO
commander in Afghanistan,
was overseeing the process.
The number, Panetta said,
will be based on how many
forces are needed for counterterrorism — that is, in commando raids like the one that
killed Osama bin Laden — as
well as for training and providing air transport and other
support to the Afghan security
forces.
In the past year, as a record
number of U.S. forces have
been killed in attacks by their
Afghan partners, there has
been a growing sense among
some in the administration that
U.S. troops should come home
sooner rather than later. At the
same time there is a concern

political order, Democrats

The question over the

agree now or later on how
to slash $1.2 trillion from the

Rinckey, a
former Army prosecutor from
1999-2004 who is now in private practice. “This was an
atrocity. This is not the fog of
war. It’s not like we were calling in artillery and an artillery
shell landed in a village.”
Prosecutors say Bales, 39,
slipped away from remote
Camp Belambay to attack two
villages early on March 11, killing 16 civilians, including nine
children. The slayings drew
such angry protests that the
U.S. temporarily halted combat operations in Afghanistan,
and it was three weeks before
American investigators could
reach the crime scenes.
Through a video moni-
tor in a military courtroom
near Seattle, Bales saw young
Afghan girls smile beneath
bright head coverings before
they described the bloodbath
he’s accused of committing.
He saw boys fidget as they
remembered how they hid
behind curtains when a gunman killed people in their village and one other.
And he saw dignified,
thick-bearded men who spoke
of unspeakable carnage — the
piled, burned bodies of children and parents alike.

of the men saw something
else — signs that justice will
be done.
“I saw the person who
killed my brother sitting there,
head down with guilt,” Haji
Mullah Baraan said Monday in
an interview with The Associated Press. “He didn’t look up
toward the camera.”
While there have been
cases of troops being sentenced to life in prison for
committing atrocities, the vast
majority of those convicted
for extrajudicial killings have
been let off with little to no jail
time for crimes that in civilian
courts could carry hefty sentences, legal experts say.

JOINT BASE LEWISMcCHORD, Wash. — The
U.S. military has been criticized for its spotty record
on convicting troops of killing civilians, but a hearing
against Army Staff Sgt. Robert
Bales involving a massacre in
Afghanistan has shown that it
isn’t like most cases.
Government prosecutors
have built a strong eyewitness
case against the veteran soldier, with troops recounting
how they saw Bales return
to the base covered in blood.
And in unusual testimony in
a military court, Afghan civilians questioned via a video
link described the horror of
seeing 16 people killed, mostly
children, in their villages.
Law experts say the case
could test whether the military, aided by technology, is
able to embark on a new era
of accountability.
Bales faces 16 counts of
premeditated murder and
six counts of attempted murder. The preliminary hearing,
which began Nov. 5 and is
scheduled to end with closing arguments today, will
determine whether he faces
a court-martial. He could
face the death penalty if convicted.
The U.S. military system’s
record has shown it is slow
to convict service members
of alleged war crimes.
A range of factors make
prosecuting troops for civilian deaths in foreign lands
difficult, including gathering
eyewitness testimony and
collecting evidence at a crime
scene in the midst of a war.
At Bales’ preliminary hearing, the prosecution accommodated the Afghan witnesses, including children, by

Officer-involved wrecks trigger training
BRUNSWICK, Ga. — State troopers
and other law officers in Georgia are
being assigned to brush up on their driving skills after a spate of crashes.
State officials have grown so concerned about the number of accidents
caused by emergency vehicles they are
instating a mandatory training program,
The Brunswick News reported.
Georgia State Patrol troopers will
start receiving annual, four-hour driving courses this month.
Statewide, there were 2,475 crashes
involving on-duty officers in 2011, resulting in three deaths and 386 people being
injured, according to the Governor’s
Office of Highway Safety.
In the Brunswick area, Glynn County Police Chief Matt Doering said his
agency already has initiated an annual
refresher program. There have been 15
crashes involving county officers so far
this year, with the police found at fault
in nine of them.
“Improper backing is one common
factor, for instance. It is an area where
training has and will help,” Doering said.

Vance Templeton was determined that neither cold wind nor

He worried that someone would

He got it done, but it wasn’t easy.

hit 63 degrees, records show.
Not much rain but even colder
temperatures are expected today,
said Paul Barys, WRCB-TV Channel
3 chief meteorologist. Winds will
pick up from the north, dropping
today’s high temperature to about 55,
he said, and with the wind it’s going
to feel like 40 degrees. But at least it
will be sunny, he said.
The first hard freeze of the season could come tonight, with the
low expected to drop to 33, Barys
said. Temperatures on Wednesday
will rise into the mid-50s, he said.
It really doesn’t heat up that
much for the rest of the week, said
Jessica Winton, meteorologist with
the National Weather Service in
Morristown, Tenn.
By Thursday, temperatures are
expected to come back into the 60s,
and high temperatures will continue
around 60 into the weekend.
It may be just a bit colder than
normal, but it’s still pretty close to
average, Barys said.

Federal prosecutors say
attorneys for Jesse Mathews
can use court records, but
they can’t get testimony
from the man who prosecuted the accused killer’s
family.
Assistant U.S. Attorney
Suzanne Bauknight on
Friday filed a response to
requests from Mathews’
attorneys, Lee Davis and
Bryan Hoss, to conduct a
video interview with federal prosecutor Steve Neff
to use in the potential sentencing phase of their client’s January death penalty
trial.
In her
written
r e s p o n s e,
Bauknight
said that
U.S. Attorney Bill
Killian’s
d e n i a l to Jesse
allow Neff Mathews
to testify in
state court falls within the
law, which allows federal
agencies to decide when
or if its members can be
called to testify in state
court proceedings.
Mathews is charged with
killing Chattanooga police
Sgt. Tim Chapin during the
botched robbery of a store
on Brainerd Road on April
2, 2011.
Bauknight asked for a
hearing on Nov. 16 to speed
up the process, followed by
a hearing before U.S. District Judge Harry “Sandy”
Mattice on Nov. 20 to
review the filings so far.
Davis has asked for a
hearing date on Nov. 26, 27
or 29, citing a previously
scheduled conflict for him
and Hoss.
Mathews’ mother, Kathleen; father, Ray Vance;
sister, Rachel; and sister’s
boyfriend, James Poteete,
were prosecuted by Neff
for crimes connected to
Mathews during his time
as a federal fugitive from
unrelated armed robberies
in Colorado.
Kathleen received 30
years in prison for her part,
the most severe of all sentenced.
During federal court
actions and in documents,
Neff called Kathleen a

NASHVILLE — A
recent poll shows Republican Gov. Bill Haslam has
strong bipartisan support
among Tennessee voters.
The Middle Tennessee
State University poll shows
Haslam has a 76 percent
approval rating among
independents heading into
the third year of his term,
75 percent of Republicans
like what he’s doing, and
54 percent of Democrats
approve.
More than two in three
voters, or 68 percent, say
they approve of the way
Haslam is handling his
job as governor. Fourteen
percent disapprove, and
16 percent say they don’t
know.
Jason Reineke, the
poll’s associate director,
said Haslam’s numbers are
impressive “considering
the partisan climate regarding national politics.”
Poll director Ken Blake
said the governor’s high
bipartisan support is similar to that of his predecessor, Gov. Phil Bredesen.
“Both men have tended
to govern from the political
center while steering clear
of hot-button social issues,”
Blake said.
The recent poll showed
Haslam was less popular
with African-American
voters. Forty-seven percent expressed approval of
his job performance, compared to 22 percent who
expressed disapproval, and
31 percent who said they
weren’t sure.
The poll conducted last
month surveyed 650 registered voters. It has an error
margin of plus or minus
four percentage points.

Democrats still
hold most Alabama
courthouse offices
By Phillip Rawls
MONTGOMERY, Ala.
— After losing their last
statewide elected office in
the Nov. 6 election, Alabama
Democrats still can console
themselves with one statistic: At least they still hold a
majority of the elected offices in county courthouses
statewide.
But even at the local level,
the Republican Party made
gains.
Counting all county races,
from probate judge to school
board and county commission, state Republican Party
Chairman Bill Armistead said
the GOP had a net gain of 45
offices in the election.
Party switches leading
up to the Nov. 6 election
and victories in that election increased the number
of Republican probate judges
from 20 to 32 and the number
of Republican circuit clerks
from 17 to 29, he said.
State Democratic Party
Chairman Mark Kennedy,
meanwhile, asserts he is
delighted his party still holds
a majority of those offices in
the 67 counties. And he says
even with their gains, the
Republicans fell short.
“Bill Armistead has been
saying for months that Alabama Republicans were
focused on a strategy ‘from
the courthouse to the White
House.’ They failed. Democrats came out on top in
many of the local races that
the Republicans targeted,”
Kennedy said.
TRENDING
REPUBLICAN
Maybe so, but Alabama
has been trending Republican for a generation.
It took 26 years from the
election of the first Republican in statewide office in 1986,
Gov. Guy Hunt, until the last
Democrat in statewide office,
Public Service Commission
President Lucy Baxley, was
defeated on Nov. 6.
The GOP now holds every
office elected statewide,
including governor, both U.S.
Senate seats, and all 19 appellate court seats.
At the district level, the
Republican Party holds six
of the seven U.S. House seats
and six of the eight seats on
the State Board of Education.
The only congressional and
school board seats now held
by Democrats are in predominantly African-American
districts. In the Legislature,
Republicans hold more than
three-fifths of the seats.
There were contested
races for 213 county offices,
with 149 having been held by
Democrats and 64 by Republicans. Republicans won 67 of
the seats that had been held
by Democrats, and Democrats won 22 of the seats held
by Republicans, according to
the state Republican Party.
Democrats were successful in urban counties with
significant African-American
populations. In Montgomery
County, the son of Joe Reed,
the chairman of the Democratic Party’s black wing,
defeated a longtime Republican probate judge. Democrats swept all county races
in Jefferson County and reelected a Democratic probate
judge in Tuscaloosa County
against tough GOP opposition.
RURAL INROADS
The GOP made inroads
into some rural counties as
well as counties in Northwest Alabama that always
had been Democratic strongholds.
“Republicans were elected
for the first time in modern
time in Colbert, Franklin and
Marengo counties, and the
first Republican countywide
officials were elected in Jackson, Tallapoosa and Washington counties,” Armistead
said.
William Stewart, retired
chairman of the political
science department at the
University of Alabama, said
the strong Republican showing in the presidential and
statewide races indicates
the majority of Alabamians
are conservative and don’t
like the national Democratic
Party. But he said many Alabama voters are willing to
split their ballots to vote for
Democrats in county races
where they know the candidates.
Stewart said county courthouses will likely remain the
base of the Democratic Party
for the next few years.
“I don’t see how they can
win statewide races any time
real soon,” he said.
Armistead is already
making plans for 2014, when
county sheriffs will be a focus
of the GOP.
Kennedy is plotting a
comeback in a big election
year when the governor,
Legislature and other state
offices will be on the ballot.
“We will study the Alabama electoral map, be strategic in what we do and invite
all Alabamians to join us as
we continue to rebuild the
Alabama Democratic Party,”
he said.
Worker dies in fall from parked train
MACON, Ga. — Authorities say an autopsy is being
planned for a railroad worker who died in a fall from a
parked train in Macon.
The Telegraph reported
that 56-year-old Steve War-
ren, of McDonough, died

Authorities say the Norfolk Southern employee fell

OAK RIDGE, TENN.
Computer again
is world’s fastest
The Oak Ridge National
Laboratory says it again has
the world’s fastest computer.
The lab’s $200 million
Cray XK7, dubbed Titan, is
No. 1 on the new Top 500
list released Monday at
the Supercomputing Conference in Salt Lake City,
according to The Knoxville
News Sentinel.
Titan achieved a sustained computing capability
of 17.5 petaflops — or 17.5
million billion mathematical calculations per second
— to qualify for the list.
The machine reportedly has
a peak capability of more
than 27 petaflops.
Jeff Nichols, ORNL’s
scientific computing chief,
stated in an email that the lab
did not have time to optimize
the computer fully before
the tests, so there is room for
better performance.
This marks at least the
fourth time that the Oak
Ridge lab has the world’s
fastest computer.

Holiday House
set for Dec. 8, 9
The Whitfield-Murray
Historical Society’s annual

Spring Farm in southeastern Murray County on Dec.
8 and 9, a news release
states.
The event will be from
2 to 5 p.m. each day at the

century under Sam Carter, a
Murray County civic leader,
according to the release.
Today, Carters Quarter/
Rock Spring Farm is owned
by Carter descendants and
listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The event will include
guided tours of the greenery-filled house, refreshments and visits to original
plantation outbuildings
such as the kitchen, cook’s
house, kettle house, spring
house, trunk house and the
family cemetery. Admission
is $10 per person ages 12
and up, and those under 12
are $5.
Proceeds support operation of the Whitfield-Murray Historical Society.

Dalton State breaks ground
on $15 million building
Structure will provide space for expanding science classes
By Joy Lukachick
Staff Writer
DALTON, Ga. — Seven years
after officials proposed expanding
its science department, Dalton State
College broke ground Monday on a
three-story, 58,000-square-foot science building.
School officials say they hope the
building, expected to be completed
by next summer, will attract more
students seeking science majors, prerequirements for engineering or other
degrees and premedical students.
“[We hope] it will be an attraction for the workforce in the local
industries as well as students who
are just interested in science,” said
Sandra Stone, the college’s vice
president for academic affairs.
The School of Science, Technology and Mathematics now offers
four-year degrees in biology, chemistry and mathematics, and the labs
for the science classes are at capac-
ity with 325 biology majors and 66
chemistry majors, Dean Randall
Griffus said.
Since Dalton State added the science degrees — biology six years
ago and chemistry two years ago
— the majors continued to grow
until officials had to stop adding students because of space problems,
Griffus said.
The new building, originally
approved by the state Board of
Regents in 2005, continually was
delayed, then its size reduced by half
in 2011. Earlier this year, once the cost
was reduced to $15 million, the work
at Dalton State was approved in the
2013 fiscal budget. The school also
received $500,000 from the John Willis Mashburn Charitable Foundation.
At Monday’s ceremony, officials
said the project has taken hard work,
determination and many hands.

When the new building is complete, officials hope to attract more

and even private labs to encourage

said is increasing in popularity.
At the same time, the science

And the school is continuing to

taking it day by day,” Schindel said.
“It’s very tragic losing a
baby, and they’re very upset.
They’re as anxious to get the
report back as we are,” she
said.
Meanwhile, the baby’s
father, Chris Russell, 23,
remains a “person of interest” in the case, Schindel
said.
Attempts Monday to contact Russell and the boy’s
mother, 24-year-old Leah
Collins, were unsuccessful. Collins’ Facebook page
shows several photos of her
son along with messages of
condolence from relatives
and friends.
The investigation was
launched after a June 17
emergency call from family
members when the infant
stopped breathing, officials
said.
Marion County Sheriff
Ronnie “Bo” Burnett said
the infant was taken to
Grandview Medical Center
in Jasper, where he was stabilized before being taken
to Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville. Burnett
said Vanderbilt officials
early on described the injuries as “major trauma” to
the child’s brain. He died
after the family decided to
discontinue life support on
June 23.
Schindel said initial medical scans and an MRI scan
performed before the baby
died showed he had retinal
hemorrhaging and brain trauma, injuries similar to those
found in cases of “shaken
baby syndrome.”
Medical officials also
found rib fractures that “were
at least 10 days old,” and they
noted that, for a few days
before he stopped breathing,
the baby had been throwing
up — a possible sign of brain
injury, Schindel said.

Sewer problems threaten Dayton growth, council hears
By Tom Davis
Correspondent
DAYTON, Tenn. — Development north of Dayton may be
stalled because of inadequate sewer
service, Dayton City Council members were told Monday.
A six-inch sewer line that serves
Rhea County High School is nearing its capacity, but a more pressing problem is the size of the line
from the industrial park pumping
station to the sewage treatment
plant, sewer Superintendent Glenn
Fraley said. His comments came as
council was asked to authorize a
proposed 50-unit residential development near Rhea Medical Center
to tie onto the high school’s service
line.
Mayor Bob Vincent said many
people forget that that line was put
in solely to serve the high school
and 50 other properties.
“It was originally proposed to
be four inches, and it was a struggle to get a six-inch line instead,”
Vincent said. “We are inadequate
for sewer service up that way. My
understanding is that the processing plant is not a problem.”
Fraley said a huge water dis-
charger would pose trouble, but
right now residential development
is not a problem.
“The [treatment] plant is 40
years old, and eventually it will
have to be replaced,” Fraley said.
“If Dayton continues to grow, we’ll
have to expand.”
The council tabled consideration
of the request from developers of
the proposed Brookstone Heights
development for further study.
for bids to build a 6 million-gallonsper-day potable water treatment
plant to replace the current facility,
which has a capacity of 4 million
gallons per day. Vincent said plans
are being considered to refurbish
the present plant to provide additional capacity once the new plant
is on line.

KNOXVILLE — The
number of veterans who are
students at the University of
Tennessee in Knoxville has
increased 70 percent since
2009, and the school wants to
help them make it to graduation.
The Knoxville News
Sentinel reported that UT
doesn’t track the retention
of its veteran students, but
nationally, the numbers are
not encouraging. However,
most veterans who make it
past the first few semesters
tend to do well.
At UT, a task force was
established last fall to connect veterans to services
like financial advising, early
course registration and counseling.
Ashley Blamey, the director of UT’s Safety, Environment and Education Center,
is chairwoman of the com-
mittee.
“People are really open
to helping this community,
and they tend to be a pretty
self-sufficient people, so all
we’re doing is really providing opportunities,” she said.
UT also wants to connect
veterans to other veterans.
That includes handing out
special American flag lapel
pins in the shape of the
Power T that allow veterans
to find each other.

But Fludd’s ascension underscores the increasing racial
and demographic polarization of Georgia’s electorate.
The dynamic is accentuated
by the legislative districts
that the Republican majority
redrew after the 2010 census,
further confining Democrats
to metropolitan Atlanta and
other urban areas, many of
them dominated by nonwhite
voters.
The difference was obvious in the simultaneous caucus meetings at the Capitol.
Republicans filled much of
the House chamber with
113 of their 119 members, 24
of them just having won reelection. They could reach
the supermajority threshold
should independent Rep. Culver “Rusty” Kidd join the GOP,
as he said last week he is considering. Kidd was not in the
House chamber Monday.
The 60 Democrats,
meanwhile, gathered in the
much smaller Senate chamber. Speakers addressed the
meeting without needing a
sound system.
Minority Leader Stacey
Abrams, of Atlanta, told her
colleagues that last Tuesday
was a success, despite the
GOP gaining seats. The new
legislative maps, she said,
gave Republicans a natural
advantage in 124 districts. So
keeping them at 119, she said,
is a victory: “Democrats are
on the ascendancy.” She did
not address the possibility of
Kidd’s switch.
Abrams and Minority
Whip Carolyn Hugley, of
Columbus, were re-elected
to their party posts without
opposition.
Taking the long view,
Abrams said that demo-
graphics in Georgia favor
Democrats. The state’s electorate is becoming younger,
less native and less white; a
slim majority of Georgians
under 18 are nonwhite.
Fludd promised that
he would not wait for the
demographic shifts to show
up at the ballot box. He said
he would recruit candidates
immediately for 2014 elections. He said he’d start a
caucus political action committee and target unions,
plaintiffs attorneys and corporations for support.
As for reaching more
white voters, he said, “We
have an economic message
that appeals to working class
voters in every district.”

Lawmaker urges Haslam to oust DCS chief
NASHVILLE — A Tennessee legislator who repeatedly asked the Department of Children’s Services for information is calling for the commissioner’s
ouster.
State Rep. Sherry Jones, D-Nashville,
is asking Gov. Bill Haslam to remove
DCS Commissioner Kate O’Day, according to The Tennessean.
“It’s time for O’Day to resign or for
the governor to step in and replace her,”
Jones said.
“She has had two years, and there
is nothing getting better at the Department of Children’s Services,” Jones
added. “As a matter of fact, it’s getting
worse.“
In her budget presentation to Haslam
last week, O’Day offered nothing that
indicated a turnaround was coming at
DCS, Jones said.
A statewide association of groups
that do business with DCS also
expressed frustration with O’Day, sayDemocratic Party Chairman
Paul Smith.
“Those people wanted to
take part, and they should
have been able to,” Smith
said.
Other anti-voter ID activist groups argue it’s impossible to measure how the
law may have discouraged
potential voters.
“We won’t ever know fully
the number of people who
stayed home because they
didn’t have the photo ID,”
said Mary Mancini, executive
director of Tennessee Citizen
Action, which is compiling
incidents of voting problems
across the state.
Election officials said they
credit voters’ preparedness
to statewide publicity about
the law.
“The Legislature gave election officials plenty of time
to hold community meetings
and get information out in the
media,” Goins said.
WHERE TO VOTE
Local officials’ biggest
problem turned out to be
voters’ confusion over where
they were supposed to vote.

Darci Halfman, executive director
of the Tennessee Alliance for Children

group issued a public request to meet

sus, meant that many voters
were assigned new polling
places.
“From what I understand,
there were a lot of people
who were confused about
where to go,” said Allen. “I
feel like we did all we could
do, mailing people new registration cards in July, but
some people still all had their
old [voting] cards when they
showed up to the polls.”
Election officials blame
the mix-ups on the fact that
state redistricting came during the same year as a presidential election.
“That’s basically a recipe
for confusion for the voters who come out only for
presidential elections,” Allen
said.
Smith argued that redistricting changes and the ID
laws were just two factors in
an “orchestrated effort” to
reduce the vote in communities that traditionally vote
Democratic.
“The whole debate is they
were trying to slow the voting down in certain segments
of society. And what we’ve
seen is they were successful
in doing that,” said Smith, citing lower county voter turnout than in the 2008 presi-
Haslam defended O’Day last week,
saying his department head seeks to
correct the agency’s problems.
“I have known and worked around
Kate for a long time,” the governor said.
“She’s a person with great compassion
for children. She’s smart and understands this business, and she wants to
get it right.
“When I have somebody who really
wants to make it right, is bright and looks
around the country to find the best solutions and cares about kids, I think that’s
the right formula,” Haslam said.
A number of problems have plagued
the department. Among them was a
computer system that failed to make
proper payments to foster parents and
private agencies. The department’s attorney acknowledged DCS had violated law
by failing to tell legislators about deaths
of children who had come into contact
with the department. As many as a quarter of the calls made to a statewide child
abuse hotline rang unanswered.
dential election.
Currently, 33 U.S. states
have voter ID laws, and 17
of those mandate photo IDs,
according to the National
Conference of State Legislatures.
Tennessee and Georgia
are two of four states with
“strict” photo ID laws —
meaning that voters without
it may vote only by provisional ballot and must show
their photo ID later to be
counted.
Georgia’s law was upheld
by the state Supreme Court in
2011. In Tennessee, the Court
of Appeals upheld the law just
days before the election.
But laws continue to be
challenged across the nation,
including several high-profile cases in the months leading up to the election. Texas’
photo ID law was struck
down, Pennsylvania’s was
halted temporarily, and South
Carolina’s was approved —
though it could not be imple-
mented until 2013.
Johnston’s case will be
heard by the Tennessee
Supreme Court early next
year. He and partner attorney George Barrett are

two voters there who were
unable to vote in August

provisional ballots, are unofficial until certified by the Tennessee Division of Elections.

SWAINSBORO, Ga.
— Three suspects remained
at large Sunday night after
six inmates escaped from the
Emanuel County Jail, authorities said.
One of the escapees who
broke out of the East Georgia jail on Saturday night
is a man accused of murder, The Augusta Chronicle
reported.
The men escaped about
11 p.m. through a door into
a plumbing mechanical area
in the jail, Emanuel County Sheriff Tyson Stephens
said.
The jail had plumbing
work done Friday night and
a worker neglected to lock a
door, he said.
Once the men got into the
mechanical area, they were
able to reach the roof and
then climb down to freedom,
the sheriff said.
Three inmates were back
in custody by 6 p.m. Sunday,
but three others remained at
large, Stephens said.
One of the inmates who
was back behind bars had
escaped from the Emanuel
County Jail before, in 2002,
according to records from
the Georgia Department of
Corrections.
That inmate was sentenced to five years for
escape, on top of the five he
had received for entering a
vehicle.
“I have been chasing him
around since he was 8 or 10,”
Stephens said. “I’m glad to
have him back.”

After a death penalty case

Petraeus’ swift fall
G
iven history, it hardly can be a
surprise that another notable
American in public service
has been forced from office or had his
reputation sullied as the result of an
extramarital affair. What is startling to
most Americans, though, is that the latest figure whose life and career have
been marred by such a scandal is David
Petraeus, until last week the director
of the Central Intelligence Agency and
before that a four-star Army general
whose leadership in Iraq and Afghanistan made him one of the nation’s most
well-known and admired individuals.
Petraeus resigned Friday as the
head of the CIA, admitting that he had
engaged in a n extramarital affair, apparently with Paula Broadwell, his biographer. The decision to resign is appropriate. Petraeus occupied positions of
extraordinary trust and had access to
the United States’ most closely guarded military and intelligence secrets.
Though there has been no suggestion
that national security was breached
by the affair, Petraeus’ resignation is
appropriate. Given the potential security breach and the former general’s
oft-stated personal code of honorable
conduct, there was no other choice.
Unfortunately, the fall from power by
such a high-profile figure is not rare.
Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and former New York Gov.
Eliot Spitzer are recent examples. Former
Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dwight
D. Eisenhower and Bill Clinton are earlier examples. Their positions, too, made
it impossible for them to avoid scandal,
either immediately or in the judgment
of history. Public office, unlike work in
private enterprise, makes it likely that a
heavy penalty for infidelity is exacted.
Petraeus understood that, publicly
admitting Friday that “such behavior
[the extramarital affair] is unacceptable,
both as a husband and the leader of an
organization such as ours [the CIA].”
The resignation, however, will not end
the intrigue and queries surrounding
Petraeus.
Some questions are personal. Even his
closest aides from his Army days seem
stunned that Petraeus would risk his reputation and honor with an affair, which
apparently started after he left the military. The act, they almost unanimously
agree, is totally out of keeping with the
disciplined life he led for decades.
There are other, more public questions that still must be answered following Petraeus’ affair and resignation.
The most pressing is why Congress —
especially its intelligence committees
— were not notified about the possibility of an incident that could have security repercussions. That’s a legitimate
concern, one that should be examined
fairly in light of long-standing policy that
information about ongoing FBI criminal
investigations is not shared with anyone
outside the agency — including Congress and the White House.
Following his resignation, members
of both political parties praised Petraeus’
service. They said little, of course, about
the conduct that ended that service. His
fall, though, is a reminder that public
servants are held to a high standard, and
that violation of it often results in a swift
fall from grace.
We live on shaky ground
A small earthquake that occurred in
eastern Kentucky on Saturday was felt
as far south as Atlanta and as far north
as Ohio, and it prompted many calls
to public safety officials in the tristate
region and nearby states. Though the 4.3
magnitude quake caused no reported
damage, it is a useful reminder of the
elemental forces at play below the surface of the planet we call home.
The earthquake, which took place
shortly after noon, was centered more
than half a mile underground and about
eight miles west of the town of Whitesburg, was by traditional measures a
minor one. Many people, in fact, did not
notice it, but some near the epicenter
and as far as 300 miles away did. Such
mixed reaction, seismologists say, is not
unusual.
Earthquakes in Kentucky are not
uncommon, though more occur in the
western part of the state along the New
Madrid fault zone than in the east. The
same geography applies in Tennessee
and Georgia. Several quakes occur in
each state over the course of a year, but
most go unnoticed. If they are noticed,
a quick shake or bump is the most common feeling.
Still even a minor quake can cause
a stirring of concern or fear, especially
to those who are not familiar with the
earth-shaking event. The initial shock,
of course, is the primary worry, but
often a small quake triggers concern
that a larger one is to follow. Experts
say that usually is not true.
Most quakes in this region are similar
to the one on Saturday. They are usually
a single event. Indeed, seismologists
add, it is rare for major or even noticeable or aftershocks to follow the initial
event.
That’s reassuring, no doubt, but
residents in this region should not put
earthquakes out of their minds. Seismologists agree that it is impossible to
predict with any accuracy when and
where a quake will take place. And
while earthquakes occur more often in
western Kentucky and Tennessee than
in the eastern sections of those states,
strong temblors have taken place in this
region.
One of the more recent was a 4.9
magnitude quake near Fort Payne, Ala.,
in 2003 along a fault that extends from
Guntersville, Ala., toward nearby Jasper, Tenn. That quake did cause some
damage and was felt in Chattanooga
and nearby communities. It was — and
is — a reminder of the realities of our
physical world.
There are similar faults in the
tristate region. One, for example, runs
from Chatsworth to near Cartersville
in Georgia. Another crosses northwest
Atlanta. Still, the experts say, earthquake activity is low in the region
despite such faults, and it is limited
to a relative handful of mostly unfelt
tremors annually.
Slightly shaken residents of this
part of the country no doubt wish that
continues to be true. Saturday’s quake,
though, is another reminder that the
land on which we live is not as solid
and unshakable as we might hope and
believe.
COMMENTARY
Other things on his mind
Israeli friends have been
asking me whether a re-elected President Barack Obama
will take
revenge
on Prime
Minister
Bibi Netanyahu for the
way he and
Sheldon
Adelson,
his foolharThomas
dy finanFriedman
cier, openly
backed Mitt Romney. My
answer to Israelis is this: You
should be so lucky.
You should be so lucky that
the president feels he has the
time, energy and political capital to spend wrestling with Bibi
to forge a peace between Israelis and Palestinians. I don’t see
it anytime soon. Obama has
his marching orders from the
American people: Focus on
Bethlehem, Pa., not on Bethlehem, Palestine, and focus on
getting us out of quagmires
(Afghanistan) not into them
(Syria). No, my Israeli friends,
it’s much worse than you think:
You’re home alone.
Of course, no one here will
tell you that. To the contrary,
there will surely be a new secretary of state visiting you next
year with the umpteenth road
map for “confidence-building
measures” between Israelis
and Palestinians. He or she
may even tell you that “this is
the year of decision.” Be careful. We’ve been there before. If
you Google “Year of decision
in the Middle East,” you’ll get
more than 100,000,000 links.
Is this good for Israel? No. It
is unhealthy. The combination
of America’s internal focus, the
post-Arab awakening turmoil
and the exhaustion of Palestinians means Israel can stay
in the West Bank indefinitely
at a very low short-term cost
but at a very high long-term
cost of losing its identity as
a Jewish democracy. If Israelis want to escape that fate,
■ Obama has his
marching orders from the
American people: Focus
on Bethlehem, Pa., not on
Bethlehem, Palestine, and
focus on getting us out of
quagmires (Afghanistan)
not into them (Syria).
it is very important that they
understand that we’re not
your grandfather’s America
anymore.
To begin with, the rising
political force in America is
not the one with which Bibi
has aligned Israel. As Israeli
columnist Ari Shavit noted
last week: “In the past, both
the Zionist movement and the
Jewish state were careful to be
identified with the progressive
forces in the world. ... But in
recent decades more and more
Israelis took to leaning on the
reactionary forces in American
society. It was convenient to
lean on them. The evangelists
didn’t ask difficult questions
about the settlements, the
tea party people didn’t say a
word about excluding women
and minorities or about Jewish settlers’ attacks and acts
of vandalism against Palestinians and peace activists. The
Republican Party’s white, religious, conservative wing was
not agitated when the Israeli
Supreme Court was attacked
and the rule of law in Israel
was trampled.” Israel, Shavit
added, assumed that “under
the patronage of a radical,
rightist America we can conduct a radical, rightist policy
without paying the price.”
No more. Netanyahu can
still get a standing ovation
from the Israel lobby, but not
at UCLA.
At the same time, U.S. policymakers have learned that
the Middle East only puts a
smile on our faces when it
starts with them: with Israelis and Arabs. Camp David
started with them. Oslo started
with them. The Arab Spring
started with them. When they
have ownership over peace or
democracy movements, those
initiatives can be self-sustaining. We can amplify what they
start, but we can’t create it. We
can provide the mediation and
even the catering, but it’s got to
start with them.
We’ve learned something
else from our interventions
in Afghanistan and Libya: We
willed the ends, but we did
not will the means — that is,
doing all that it would take to
transform those societies. That
is why we’re quitting Afghanistan, staying out of Syria and
relying on sanctions, as long
as possible, to dissuade Iran
from building a nuclear bomb.
These countries are too hard
to fix but too dangerous to
ignore. We’ll still try to help,
but we’ll expect regional powers, and the locals, to assume
more responsibility.
Finally, we really have work
to do at home. Soon Americans will be asked to pay more
taxes for less government. It’s
coming. It will not make us
isolationists, but it will change
our mood and make us much
pickier about where we’ll get
involved. That means only a
radical change by Palestinians
or Israelis will get us to fully
re-engage.
So my best advice to Israelis
is: Focus on your own election
— on Jan. 22 — not ours. I find
it very sad that in a country
with so much human talent,
the Israeli center and left still
can’t agree on a national figure
who could run against Netanyahu and his thuggish partner, Foreign Minister Avigdor
Lieberman — a man whose
commitment to democracy
is closer to Vladimir Putin’s
than Thomas Jefferson’s. Don’t
count on America to ride to
the rescue. It has to start with
you.
My president is busy.
Election data dive
Since this may be my last
column about the 2012 elections, let’s have some fun.
Allow me
to arm you
with a collection of
facts and
data about
the election
results that
you can use
at your next
Charles
cocktail
Blow
party, coffee
break or PTA meeting.
First, a comment about the
exit polls from which most of
these data are drawn: They
were conducted only in 30
states. And, unfortunately, the
balance of states polled tilted
heavily toward those won by
President Barack Obama. Of
the 26 states Obama won, exit
polls were conducted in all but
three. Obama also won the District of Columbia, which had
no exit polls. Of the 24 states
Mitt Romney won, exit polls
were conducted only in eight.
With those caveats, let’s
dive in:
■ My analysis of the 2008
election found that even if
every black person in America
had stayed home on Election
Day, Obama would still have
won. That’s because the white
vote and Hispanic vote were
strong enough to push him
over the needed 270 votes to
win..
This year is a different story.
This year, his path to victory
required a broader coalition.
Without the Democratic
black vote joining with that of
liberal whites and Hispanics,
Obama would likely have lost
half the states that he won. This
fact may embolden those who
■ My analysis of the 2008
election found that even
if every black person in
America had stayed home
on Election Day, Obama
would still have won.
say that the president should
more directly address issues
facing the African-American
community.
■ There may have been
a backlash against voter suppression laws, bringing more
minorities to the polls, not
fewer. Hispanics as a share
of all voters were up in many
states won by Obama. That
can be attributed both to the
surging Hispanic population in
the country and to the Obama
campaign’s incredible getout-the-vote operation. It is
less clear why the black vote
held steady or grew in many
of those states. In Ohio for
example, blacks jumped from
11 percent of the voters in 2008
to 15 percent this year. Threaten to steal something, and its
owner’s grip grows tighter.
■ Romney won nine of the
11 states that were once in the
Confederacy.
■ Romney also won eight
of the 10 states with the
lowest population density:
Alaska, Wyoming, Montana,
North Dakota, South Dakota,
Idaho, Nebraska and Utah.
Obama won New Mexico and
Nevada.
■ Romney’s biggest margin of victory came in Utah,
home of the Mormon Church.
Utah was one of three states
in which Romney won every
county. The other two were
West Virginia and Oklahoma.
Obama won every county in
Connecticut and Vermont.
■ Among the states in
which exit polls where conducted, Obama won the lowest percent of the white vote
in the state with the highest
percentage of black voters
— the ever-reliable Mississippi, where Romney made
his famous “I like grits” comment. Thirty-six percent of the
voters in Mississippi are black.
Obama won a mere 10 percent
of the white vote there.
Conversely, Obama won
one of his highest percentages of white voters in the
state with the fewest minority voters: Maine. Ninety-five
percent of Maine’s voters
were white, and 57 percent of
them voted for Obama. That
ties with one other state for
the highest percent of whites
voting for Obama: Massachusetts, where 86 percent
of the voters are white. In
fact, Obama won the white
vote only among states with
small minority voting populations. The others Obama won
were Iowa (93 percent white),
New Hampshire (93 percent
white), Oregon (88 percent
white), Connecticut (79 percent white) and Washington
state (76 percent white).
This is quite a curious phenomenon.
■ Obama won all four states
that begin with “New” (New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New
Mexico and New York), but
he lost all five that begin with
a direction (North Carolina,
South Carolina, North Dakota,
South Dakota and West Virginia). OK, I just threw that
one in for fun.
Now, political junkies, go
forth and spout facts!

Oil, oil everywhere
M
uch like overpopulation,
the alleged horrors of DDT
and the notion that logging
is the chief threat to the bizarrely
ennobled spotted owl, the supposedly
impending depletion of the world’s
oil supplies has long been a source of
enthusiastic panic for liberals.
So, how about an update?
• Multiple nations — particularly
in Europe and developed parts of
Asia — face not-too-distant fiscal
catastrophe because of underpopulation. Citizens in liberal nirvanas
such as Denmark, for instance, “are
producing fewer babies than it takes
to replace themselves, continuing a
trend that is worrying demographers,
who fear that declining population
growth will undermine the welfare
system,” The Copenhagen Post helpfully notes. “(T)here will be fewer
taxpayers to shoulder the burden of
tomorrow’s pensioners and other
benefit recipients.”
• Tens of millions worldwide have
died of malaria because of environmentalist-backed bans on DDT, which
had been used effectively against
malaria-carrying mosquitos and
would have prevented those deaths.
• And even after vast, federally
imposed, job-killing reductions in
logging in the Northwest, populations of spotted owls have continued
to decline.
The spotted owls’ more aggressive cousins, barred owls, appear to
be a major culprit, competing with
spotted owls for food and sometimes
killing their kin. Oops.
That brings us back to oil depletion and related hysteria.
Oil is going to dry up, liberals
clamor, so the federal government
simply must subsidize development
and production of wind and solar
power — and fast!
The assumptions embedded in that
hypothesis are ludicrous to thinking
people. First, while oil supplies are not
infinite, there is little cause to believe
they’ll disappear anytime soon. Recall
a recent point in an Associated Press
article: “U.S. oil output is surging so
fast that the United States could soon
overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s
biggest producer.” U.S. production is
expected to rise 7 percent this year
alone.
Then there is the inconvenient
fact that we still have mind-boggling
supplies of coal, as well as bountiful,
greenhouse gas-free nuclear energy
and the potential for a lot more.
In short, all three purchasers of
“The Collected Witticisms of Al
Gore” can keep reading it at night
without benefit of a candle.
But let’s suppose we do begin to
approach the depletion of world
oil supplies. The idea that that’s an
excuse for even more failed federal
green energy investment is nutty.
Even in the tattered remains of America’s free market, when supply drops
but demand stays the same or rises,
it creates a natural incentive to invest
in alternatives. If oil supplies begin
decreasing, prices will rise. (That is
not to be confused with current high
prices that are often related to absurd
bans on production in various locations.)
When oil prices finally rise enough
to make wind and solar power competitive — and to make consumers
actually consider them even when
they aren’t dipped in tax-credit sweeteners — private development and
production dollars will flood those
industries and make them more feasible.
But when federal busybodies
indulge their appetite for economic guesswork and opt for subsidies
over the self-correcting workings of
the free market, we wind up with
taxpayer-robbing debacles such as
Solyndra.
Someone will no doubt protest that
oil companies, too, have gotten subsidies from one Congress and one
president after another. In truth, oil
companies haven’t received direct
handouts in years. But if they had,
they would be as inexcusable as the
unconstitutional giveaways to green
energy.
Congress should tear all energy
giveaways out by the root, let energy
companies compete without governmental favors and let the American
people vote with their dollars on how
they will heat their homes and fuel
their cars.
COMMENTARY
Avoiding the fiscal cliff
By Scot Faulkner
The impending “fiscal
cliff” is the most thoroughly
predicted disaster since the
end of the Mayan calendar.
The problem is no one is
willing to design and implement a real solution that has
any chance of bipartisan
support.
The cycle of dysfunction
has existed for decades. The
federal Budget Act of 1974
created what was supposed
to be a rational process for
planning, approving and
implementing government
spending. It quickly became
an empty paper exercise as
appropriators ignored the
budget resolutions. When
the difference became
embarrassingly stark, the
Senate simply gave up on
passing budgets at all.
Presidents create new
budgets every year. Hidden
inside the hundreds of pages
is the “current services budget,” or “baseline.” This outlines how much it costs to
maintain existing services
at current levels. It factors in various cost drivers
— cost of living increases,
escalation clauses in contracts, etc. Budget battles
are fought over the increase
above current service levels. When officials propose
budget cuts, they are talking
about cutting this increase,
not about cutting current
service funding levels.
The latest looming cliff
is supposed to wrench the
Washington policy players
out of denial and avoidance,
forcing them to actually do
something real. This will
not happen unless certain
reforms are put in place.
• Start with the basics
■ Having everyone
discover that they can all
agree on something will
shift [us] from the culture of
confrontation to a culture of
collaboration.
— Use the “current service
analysis” levels as the budget framework. Administration and opposing budgets
can be aspirations compared
against the true baseline.
That will level the playing
field and keep everyone
honest about what is really an increase and what is
really a reduction.
• Rise above ideology
— Both Democrats and
Republicans contributed to
making the cliff. Both sides
spend like there is no tomorrow. Both sides embrace
“sacred cows.” Both sides
live in a world where their
people are angels and their
opponents are demons. A
good first step is to admit
that each side has some
good ideas and each side
has looney ones. Democrats need to understand
that even their most cherished domestic assistance
programs are riddled with
waste and ineff iciency.
Republicans need to realize that the Departments
of Defense and Homeland
Security are just as bloated
and dysfunctional as any
other government program
they assail.
• Make inspector generals and the GAO “rock
stars” — The Government
Accountability Office, or
GAO, has 3,100 employees.
There are also 73 inspector
general offices embedded
in Cabinet departments and
major agencies. All these
offices are filled with highly
trained, dedicated objective
civil servants who document waste, fraud, abuse
and inefficiency, and recommend actions to eradicate
and prevent future squandering of public resources.
They document more than
$650 billion in waste annually. That is $6.5 trillion in
cost avoidance and direct
spending reductions over
the 10 years everyone uses
to discuss the fiscal cliff.
Except in rare instances,
these reports, and their
detailed recommendations,
are universally ignored. Fix
this by passing budget bills
that specifically mandate
GAO and IG recommendations are implemented and
corresponding amounts of
documented waste, fraud
and abuse are cut from
programs and agencies.
This resurrection of effective congressional oversight
would be very welcome and
is already long overdue.
Having everyone discover that they can all agree
on something will shift [us]
from the culture of confrontation to a culture of collaboration. Beginning swimmers
start in the shallow end of
a pool and then move into
deeper waters as their skills
and confidence improve.
Congress and the White
House could move into
more complex and contentious waters as their ability
to respectfully and constructively disagree improves.

COMMENTARY
A time of soul-searching

reduced to
kindling,

picking
through
wreckage.
That’s pretty much
how it felt
Wednesday

I believed
the predictions that Mitt Romney would win big, especially
after uber-guru Michael Barone opined that Romney might
even take Pennsylvania. Romney did not take Pennsylvania.
Nor did he take the essential
swing states of Virginia, Florida and Ohio.
The autopsies will go on
for some time, but what looms
large for me is the issue of
trust.
For much of the late spring
and summer, President Barack
Obama’s campaign pumped
out a narrative smearing Romney as a heartless rich guy, an
impression Romney did little
to counter.
Romney got a bump after
naming Paul Ryan, who had
advanced a smart reform plan
for Medicare, as his running
mate. This was a signal that
if elected, Romney would
do the big things needed to
avoid a European-style debt
crisis.
But big things — entitlement reform and tax reform
— are complicated. And in the
proposal-and-debate phase, the

to the degree required.
key details are often of interest only to wonks. Winning a
mandate for a weighty agenda
requires trust, and Romney,
despite his surge after the first
debate, failed to connect with
voters to the degree required.
He didn’t stress how his taxcut plan would have boosted
economic growth.
Like many others, I underestimated Obama’s appeal and
historical status. The electorate
apparently was not willing to
fire the first black president in
favor of a wealthy man whose
proposals were not fully understood by many voters.
Which leaves the country
facing continued deadlock
with largely the same players,
a situation Harvard economist
Greg Mankiw likened to JeanPaul Sartre’s play, “No Exit.”
The play has three characters who arrive in hell expecting to be tortured. Instead, they
are locked in a room together.
Soon they detest each other
and realize their punishment
is never to escape.
Close, but perhaps in our
case purgatory would be a better metaphor. Escape is possible, but you can’t see how
— unless some unknown factor changes. Until that change
occurs we face uncertainty. It’s
hard to shake the feeling that
on Nov. 6 the nation made an
irrevocable turn toward a more
ominous future, one in which
the government role is hugely
enlarged at still-unknown costs
— both in terms of money and
a “depleted” national character, as Paul Ryan put it.
Yet it’s also clear that the
Republican Party must change
or be left behind by a changing nation. The harvest of the
GOP’s anti-immigrant fervor
was 70 percent Hispanic support for Obama. Many Latino
voters were angered by Romney’s remark earlier in the
year that the answer to illegal
immigration was “self-deportation.”
Opposition to gay marriage
is another loser for the GOP.
Maine, Washington and Maryland approved gay-marriage
measures by popular vote.
Voters in Minnesota rejected
a gay-marriage ban. Wisconsin elected the first openly gay
senator, Tammy Baldwin.
Fighting this losing battle
turns off gays who might otherwise vote Republican, and
it taints candidates in the eyes
of young voters. It’s time to let
it go. Gay marriage is gaining
acceptance.
For the immediate future,
the test for Obama is whether
he can redeem the promise
of his first campaign, reach
for the center — and deal
seriously with the nation’s
festering problems. How he
handles the looming “fiscal
cliff ” negotiations will do
much to shape the character
of his second term.

Americans don’t
respect future
On Nov. 7, there was a
column by Walter Williams
that said, “Today’s Americans have betrayed the values that made us a great
nation, and that does not
bode well for future generations.” I strongly support this
statement because I believe
America has acted selfishly
in its political sentiments. No
matter who is in office, I feel
it is obvious that many Americans do not have the future
in mind. Remaining apathetic
about the decisions our country makes or even going so
far as to make a decision but
an uninformed one is disrespectful to our future.
People have a reason for
their level of involvement in
politics and many are justifiable, but the one that breathes
of ignorance is a slap in the
face to every other citizen in
this nation. Be involved. Be
knowledgeable. Be responsible. You only have one life
on this earth. Make it mean
something.

Weak case made
against fracking
A letter’s claims (Nov. 9)
concerning the problems
associated with hydraulic
fracturing are wildly exaggerated. The citation of only
one case study by an obscure
environmental organization,
the results of which are obviously skewed in favor of their
view, is ludicrous. There has
not been one proven instance
of tap water in the U.S. being
made flammable that can be
linked to fracking.

Lessons of wisdom
are important, too
Era after era has changed,
and this era is one in which
we hope all our kids go to high
school and college.
However, I think we must
teach things that show wisdom. Things we learned from
the era that didn’t go to college
and often didn’t finish grammar school.
A balance of textbooks and
wisdom is hard to pass along,
but wisdom or “street smarts”
is equally important. Lots of
our ancestors worked hard in
a different way. Some on farms,
or raising siblings, others working at 12 as delivery boys.
My grandfather worked several jobs through the Depression and always said the neatest life lessons like, “Just do
your best and then you know
that it’s all you can do.”
Once you’ve given your all,
be proud whether you got an
A-plus or a D-minus. Maybe it
meant you divorced or stayed
together, but whatever it meant
it helped me just as much as
textbooks.
Another older woman I’m
friends with pointed out she
decided to take her dishwasher
out. She said there’s something
about having her grandkids
learn hand-washing dishes.
Probably the responsibility
or the routine she was raised
with.
All these lessons of wisdom
are just as important as the
education we learn in school,
sometimes more.

On top of that, the vast
majority of the upper Devonian shales of the Appalachian
Basin, notably the Chattanooga shale, are at depths that
are greater than the freshwater aquifers from which we
obtain our drinking water, and
are hydraulically isolated from
them. According to the U.S.
Geological Survey, these shales
contain 12.2 trillion cubic feet
of badly needed natural gas
which will help us overcome
our dependence on foreign
fossil fuels and help our economy to recover in spite of the
current administration’s insistence on pursuing prohibitively expensive “alternative”
energy boondoggles like solar
and wind.
It has not been proven that
fracking does as much damage
as environmentalists claim it
does, and it has been proven
that it provides us an ecoA merry heart doeth good
nomically feasible way to get
at the vast, dependable energy like a medicine: but a broken
spirit drieth the bones. Provreserves that we have.

PENNEY PLUNGE: Investor anxiety sinks company’s stock, C2
• • Tuesday, November 13, 2012
Staff Writer
A Chattanooga developer said
Monday he’s looking at putting up
a 15,000-square-foot office building
next to his large Waterside mixed-use
project in East Brainerd.
Developer Ken DeFoor said he has
“no big tenant” yet for the 2-acre tract
at McCutcheon and Gunbarrel roads.
But he secured a zoning change from
the Chattanooga-Hamilton Regional
Planning Commission to allow for the
commercial development.
The panel turned back the initial
staff recommendation that the rezoning of the tract from residential to
mixed-use be deferred. The planning
agency staff had said there’s a lack of
“
To my knowledge, I don’t know of a single office building
anywhere in the city that has a 50-foot landscape buffer. If we were
protecting the Sistine Chapel, I understand that.

— Mike Price,
MAP Engineers
safe traffic infrastructure in the area,
and DeFoor has other rezoning cases
nearby on Gunbarrel Road.
“Staff recommends that the applicant combine his existing zoning
cases into one overall development
proposal,” its report said.
But Mike Price of MAP Engineers
told the panel the staff met with him
and DeFoor last week and came up
with a proposal to allow the rezoning
and avoid the safety issue.
He said a certificate of occupancy
couldn’t be issued until the city’s
planned widening of that stretch of
Gunbarrel Road was done.
“That doesn’t mean he can’t start
construction,” Price added.
Dennis Malone, assistant city engineer, said the city has set aside funds
to widen Gunbarrel to Standifer Gap
Road.
“Our intent by fall of next year is to
be under construction,” he said.
City Councilman Jack Benson, who
also is a planning cmmission member,
said the widening of the two-lane road
was contingent upon the developer
giving the city the right of way.
“That’s an expensive right of way
in there,” he said.
The first phase of widening of
Gunbarrel is from Shallowford Road
to just north of McCutcheon Road in
front of the DeFoor property.

Trailer court
wins zoning

chemical giant BASF,
which currently operates emulsion polymer
plants in Chattanooga,
Pennsylvania and Mexico,
announced plans Monday
to build another such plant
in Freeport, Texas. The
new plant will employ
about 25 workers and is
expected to begin production in mid-2014.
“This new plant
strengthens our position
as a leading supplier of
emulsions in North America and demonstrates our
commitment to customers
in the coatings, construction, adhesives and paper
industries,” said Derek
Fairclough, senior vice
president of dispersions
and pigments for BASF in
North America.
In addition to the Texas
plant, BASF also is building manufacturing facilities for emulsion polymers
in India. The company
also opened new plants
this month in China and in
South Africa in September.

J.C. Penney stock plunges on investor anxiety
By Anne D’Innocenzio
NEW YORK — J.C. Penney Co.
executives may be confident in the
department-store chain’s everyday
low pricing strategy, but its investors are panicking.
The company’s stock fell more
than 13 percent on Monday — the
biggest percentage decline by far
for the day among big companies
in the S&P 500 index. Penney stock
lost nearly $3 to close at just under
$18, its lowest price since March
2009 when the United States was
in a deep recession.
The drop follows Standard &
Poor’s move to lower Penney’s
credit rating deeper into junk status on Friday. And that came on the
same day that the company reported its third consecutive quarter of
big losses and sales declines since
it decided earlier this year to get
rid of hundreds of coupons and
sales annually in favor of predictable low prices every day.
It’s the latest sign that Wall
Street isn’t any happier with Penney’s pricing than Main Street is.
Investors had pushed Penney stock
up 24 percent to about $43 after the
company announced the pricing
plan in late January. But customers
haven’t warmed to Penney’s pricing, and investors have grown cold
on the stock. With Monday’s drop,
Penney’s stock has lost nearly half
of its value this year.
Penney, which announced its
plans for the holiday shopping sea-

comment about its stock price. But
in a meeting on Friday with investors, executives assured them that
the company has enough money to
continue with the strategy.

Times CEO starts amid BBC scandal
NEW YORK — New
York Times Co. CEO Mark
Thompson started his job
Monday amid a widening scandal at his former
employer, the BBC.
When the Times hired
him in August, Thompson
was hailed as someone who
could help the company at a
time when print publications
are suffering from the loss of
readers and advertisers.
Thompson, 55, left the
British Broadcasting Corp.
in September after more
than three decades with the
public broadcaster. He joined
the company as a production
trainee in 1979 and spent
his last eight years there as
director general.
In recent months,
Thompson has faced questions over a decision by the
BBC’s “Newsnight” program
last December to shelve an
investigation into child sexual-abuse allegations against
renowned BBC children’s

Sinofsky was seen as
one of the most competent
managers within Microsoft
and earned high marks for
helping to improve the quality of its software after the
company released Windows

version of the operating
system. His name was often
floated by people speculating
about a possible successor to

“The CEO was selling the hope,
but now investors are looking at

the first half of the year,” said Brian
Sozzi, a chief equities analyst for
research firm NBG Productions
who follows the company. “Investors are digesting the reality.”
The reality is a lot harsher than
Johnson imagined when he rolled
out his pricing plan on Feb. 1. The
goal was to wean customers off
of the deep discounts that they’d
become addicted to, but that were
eroding profits.
He got rid of coupons and nearly 600 sales Penney offered at various times throughout the year. In
their place, the company rolled out
a three-tiered strategy that permanently lowered prices on all items
in the store by 40 percent, offered
monthlong deeper discounts on
select merchandise and added
periodic clearance events throughout the year.
But as Penney’s coupons and
sales disappeared, so did its customers. The company’s losses and
sales declines began to pile up.
Johnson made some tweaks to the
pricing plan — he got rid of the
monthlong sales events in August.
But that didn’t help.
On Friday, Penney reported
its third consecutive quarterly
loss that missed Wall Street estimates. The company, based in
Plano, Texas, said it lost 56 cents
per share, or $123 million, in the
quarter ended Oct. 27. Revenue
dropped nearly 27 percent to $2.93
billion. Analysts had expected a
loss of 15 cents a share on revenue
of $3.27 billion.

while Thompson was still in
charge of the company.
Thompson has said he
only became aware of the
investigative report after
speaking with a BBC journalist at a cocktail party long
after it had been canceled.
When he inquired later about
its cancellation, he said executives told him it had been
terminated for journalistic
reasons.
Conservative lawmaker
Rob Wilson told The Associated Press last month that
he has written Thompson
seeking more answers.
Savile, who died in October 2011, was known for his
eccentricity, garish tracksuits
and Cuban cigars. Early last
month, BBC rival ITV aired
a documentary that detailed
sexual abuse allegations
against Savile. Since then,
scores of women have come

The IEA added that global
trends in the energy markets
will be influenced by some
countries’ retreat from nuclear power, the fast spread of
wind and solar technologies
and a rise in unconventional
gas production.
The agency concluded
that despite the rising use of
low carbon energy sources,
huge subsidies will keep fossil
fuels “dominant in the global
energy mix.”
“Taking all new developments and policies into
account, the world is still failing to put the global energy

Like many of Brown’s

head of the Hilltop Neighborhood Association, the wrong
way.
“On the surface, it seems
like somebody is just trying
to revert this to R-3, but when
we found out the money trail
behind it, we found out wow,
we really don’t want that,”
Manor said. “They’ve got no
vested interest in our community other than making a
quick buck.”
The attempt by Energy
Way to re-establish the
rental property in the Hilltop Neighborhood may have
come at the worst possible
time, said Berz, because the
Chattanooga City Council is
preparing to place a moratorium on new exceptions to
R-1 zoning, she said.
“Obviously, there is no
doubt in my mind that this

Brown said later that the company already had installed a

neighborhoods, Mitchell said.
The influx of affordable housing for two or more families
would revitalize aging communities and bring new
blood into Chattanooga for
businesses hungry for cheap
labor, they thought.
But the duplex craze didn’t
last long.
Crime moved into the
neighborhoods along with
the low-rent tenants, spreading drugs and violence into
family neighborhoods, neighbors say.
In 1989, planners reversed
themselves. Officials rezoned
the entire Hilltop Neighborhood back to single-family R1 zoning, and duplexes that
stayed vacant for 100 days
had to be converted to singlefamily homes.
Unfortunately, Energy
Way Corp. wasn’t aware of
the neighborhood’s history
when the company bought
the last duplex standing in
the Hilltop core.
“This was news to us,” said
Peter Johnson, an attorney
for Scenic City Legal Group,
which represents Energy Way
Corp.
Johnson argued that as
property owners and now
members of the neighborhood, Energy Way Crop. has
the right to keep using the
duplex as it was intended.
“If they cannot use this
property at its current use,
there’s nothing keeping this
home from being the next
gang house,” he said. “This
type of permit is not just for
the property owners around
it, [Energy Way Corp. has]
just as much right to use this
property as everyone else
has.”

Doug Duncan, senior

says, “This has been a year
of steady growth in the
percentage of consumers

Chattanooga remains
affordable and a desirable place to live. With
mortgage rates at record
50-year lows, it may be
a great time to consider
purchasing or refinancing. There is no right
or wrong time to refinance one’s mortgage,
said Green -- “It really
depends on your financial goals and how long
you plan to stay in your
home.” Refinancing may
be a viable option even
if the interest rate difference is 1 percent, depending on the factors.

Coke revamps website
to tell its story
■ Marketers recasting
communications with
consumers as storytelling
rather than advertising.
By Stuart Elliott
Silver
Date
NAME
The company known for
decades for promoting its
flagship brand as “the pause
that refreshes” is refreshing
its corporate website for a
new century, adopting an
approach and attitude more
akin to a consumer magazine
than a business portal.
The company is CocaCola, which on Monday gave
its site a makeover that executives describe as the most
ambitious digital project they
have undertaken. To underline the intent to re-present
the corporate website as an
online magazine, it will be
called Coca-Cola Journey,
after a magazine named
Journey that was published
for the company’s employees
from 1987 to 1997.
The reorganized website
will offer articles on subjects like entertainment,
the environment, health
and sports, including longer pieces given prominence in the same way that
magazines play up cover
pieces. Interviews, opinion
columns, video and audio
clips, photo galleries and
blogs also will be featured.
The main business-oriented content of the website
— material like biographies
of executives, investor information, job postings and
news releases — will remain
after the revamping.
The website draws about
1.2 million unique visitors
a month, executives said, a
figure they hope will grow
substantially with the more
consumer-focused philoso-
phy. When the site went live
in 1995, it represented the
first Internet venture for the
Coca-Cola Co. A website
devoted to the Coca-Cola
brand followed, with an
extensive presence for the
company and its brands in
social media like Facebook,
LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube.
The last time the corporate website was redesigned
was in 2005, “a lifetime in
technology,” said Ashley
Brown, director for digital
communications and social
media at the Coca-Cola Co.
in Atlanta. “We wondered,
‘Was it really working as hard
for us as it could?”’
The journey to introducing Coca-Cola Journey began
about a year ago when Muhtar
A. Kent, chairman and chief
executive, “challenged us to
find a way to bring back Journey in the digital age,” Brown
said. “And we thought, ‘Why
should our great Coke story
stay internal?”’
The use of the word
“story” is significant because
the website changes are
indicative of the growing
interest among marketers in
recasting their communications with consumers as storytelling rather than advertising. Just as attention is being
paid to developing content to
use for brand storytelling, an
appetite also exists for corporate storytelling.
“The hot thing is to talk
about being publishers,”
Brown said. “We have this
belief in great, real content
and creating content that
can be spread through any
medium as part of our ‘liquid
and linked’ strategy.”
To make that easier, “my
team, the digital communications and social media team,
has been re-formed in the
last year to look more like an
editorial team at a long-lead
magazine,” he added, “with a
production schedule and an
editorial calendar.”
Four full-time employees
are devoted to the corporate
website, Brown said. Content is being created by 40
freelance writers and photographers as well as “people
throughout the Coke system,
in marketing and public relations.”
“We are acting as newshounds in the organization,”
he added. “It’s very much like
at a newspaper or a magazine.”
A notable difference distinguishes Coca-Cola Journey
from most of those media,
apart from custom publications or house organs: The
storytelling on the website
will be subjective, not objective, material that is favorable
to the brands, products and
interests of the Coca-Cola
Co.
Although the content
comes “with a point of view,”
Brown acknowledged, “we
want to be a credible source.”
For instance, plans call for
accepting opinion columns
that are at variance with the
views of the company, with
explanations at the top that
“would say, ‘Coca-Cola has
a different perspective’ and
there’d be space for us to
write a counterpoint,” he
said.
Asked if the corporate
website would accept an
opinion column by, say,
Mayor Michael Bloomberg of
New York, advocating restrictions on the sale of large sugary drinks, Brown replied:
“Anything’s possible. ... We
have a belief here that not
shying away from tough
decisions is a good thing
and gives us credibility.”

Euro nations split
on how to help
Greece cut debt
By Sarah Dilorenzo
And Juergen Baetz
BRUSSELS — European
finance ministers appeared
no closer Monday to agreeing on whether they were
ready to take decisive action
to help Greece dig itself out of
its mountains of debt, despite
a proposal from the country’s
international creditors to
grant the country extra time
to meet its targets.
A draft document
obtained by The Associated Press Monday from
Greece’s so-called troika of
creditors — the European
Central Bank, the European
Commission and the International Monetary Fund —
recommends giving Athens
two more years until 2016 to
implement the reforms necessary to restart growth and
bring their debts down to a
sustainable level. Ahead of
Monday’s meeting of the 17
eurozone finance ministers
in Brussels, Irish Finance
Minister Michael Noonan
said that the extension would
cost between 31 billion euros
and 32 billion euros ($39.48
billion-$40.75 billion).
The troika has already
pledged 240 billion euros in
bailout loans to keep Greece
afloat while Athens implements economic reforms and
austerity measures to get its
finances in order. The country has received around 150
billion euros of those loans
so far.
Greece is waiting for the
next 31.5 billion euro ($40 billion) installment of its bailout
loan before it faces a bond
repayment Friday that it may
not be able to afford otherwise. It has passed a series
of spending cuts and reforms
this week to meet the conditions of the loan. But in
recent months, it has become
clear that country’s bailout
program is way off track, and
deep disagreements persist
among its creditors on how
to right it.
Target has earlier start for holiday kickoff
NEW YORK — Target
Corp. will open its doors at 9
p.m. on Thanksgiving, three
hours earlier than a year ago,
to kick off the holiday shopping season.
The discounter joins several other major retailers,
including Wal-Mart Stores
Inc., that are opening earlier
in the evening on the holiday
and staggering deals over
the two-day period. Over
the years, stores have been
expanding their hours on
Black Friday to get ahead of
the competition, but the kickoff is increasingly happening
right after shoppers finish
their turkey feast.
“We thought long and hard
about the right opening time,”
said Kathee Tesija, Target’s
executive vice president of
merchandising. She said that
9 p.m. struck “a perfect balance” for customers.
Target, based in Minneapolis, plans to offer deals
that include an Apex 32-inch
LCD TV for $147 and a Nikon
digital camera for $99.99 for
the earlier opening. From 4
a.m. to noon, the next day,
customers who spend $50 or
more on clothing, accessories or home products will
earn a $10 Target gift card to
use toward a future purchase.
Target is also preparing additional early morning specials,
including Leapfrog Explorer
software for $15.
Wal-Mart said last week it
will begin its holiday sale at
8 p.m. on Thanksgiving, two
hours earlier than last year.
It then will have two more
rounds of sales events including a 10 p.m. sale on electron-
ics and another sale at 5 a.m.
the next day.
Sears Holdings Corp. said
its Sears stores will open at
8 p.m. Thanksgiving Day
and will stay open overnight
until 10 p.m. Friday. Last year
Sears stores were closed on
Thanksgiving. The company’s
Kmart stores have been open
on Thanksgiving for years.
Kohl’s Corp. and Macy’s
Inc. will again open their
doors at midnight, following
Thanksgiving. J.C. Penney
will announce its Black Friday promotions Monday.

seeking
$30 billion
storm aid
People wait in a line for supplies donated to the victims of Superstorm Sandy at the
Red Hook Houses in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn, N.Y., Monday. Some of the
buildings in the complex are still without power and heat from Superstorm Sandy
two weeks ago.
The first buses enter the
Manhattan side of the
Hugh L. Carey Tunnel
Monday afternoon. The
tunnel reopened for limited rush-hour service for
buses only.

from the Obama administration for reimbursement for
many public costs of rebuilding.
Meanwhile, two weeks
after the superstorm socked
the region, cleanup continues
in New York and New Jersey,
which bore the brunt of the
destruction.
U.S. Secretary of Homeland
Security Janet Napolitano visited with disaster-relief workers Sunday in Staten Island’s
Midland Beach neighborhood,
which is still devastated two
weeks after Sandy hit.
The lack of power restoration for a relative few in the
densely populated region at
the heart of the storm reinforced Sandy’s fractured
effect on the area: tragic and
vicious to some, merely a nuisance to others.
On Staten Island, Napolitano said “a lot of progress” had
been made since the storm hit
and especially since her last
visit 10 days earlier.
“It seems like a different
place,” she said. “You can
really tell the difference.”
But, she added, there was
a lot more to do. “The last big
chunk” to solve, she said, is the
question of how quickly power
can be returned to thousands
of homes without it.
If homes are not inhabitable even after power returns,
she said, the government is
finding temporary apartments
and hotels where evacuees
can stay — preferably in the
same community so kids can
continue going to the same
schools.
Garbage trucks, hulking
military vehicles and mudcaked cars continued Monday to move slowly through
a Staten Island waterfront
neighborhood still reeling
from Superstorm Sandy’s
storm surge.

ALBANY, N.Y. — Gov.
Andrew Cuomo plans to
request $30 billion in federal
aid to rebuild after Superstorm
Sandy, which heavily damaged
parts of New York City and
Long Island, he said Monday.
The administration will
seek a supplemental appropriation to cover infrastructure, repair and emergency
costs beyond those normally
covered by federal emergency
aid, Cuomo said. “I’ve asked
for 100 percent reimbursement,” he said.
Generally the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency will reimburse up to
75 percent of public costs, with
the state and local authorities covering the remaining
25 percent. There have been
cases, such as Hurricane
Katrina, where the federal
government has reimbursed
up to 90 percent of costs.
“The equity and the fairness is inarguable in this
case,” Cuomo said. It will
probably be a regional plan
including New Jersey and
Connecticut, with money for
infrastructure, housing, local
governments and small business, he said.
The plan to request federal
aid, first reported Monday by
The New York Times, would
help cover the cost of improvements like a power grid meant
to improve utilities’ ability to
find and fix outages. It would
also upgrade New York City’s
fuel supply capacity to help
prevent consumer shortages
and bring new oil and gas
pipelines from New England
to reduce dependence on
shipping the fuel.
Long lines at gas stations
led to alternate-day rationing
in both New York and New
Jersey after the storm.
Last week, Cuomo said the
storm would cost New York
state $33 billion, and he was
counting on a commitment

■ The TSSAA’s 75
percent take from the
preseason basketball
contests maintains an
exhibit in Nashville.
By Gene Henley
Staff Writer
A little more than a
decade ago, the Tennessee
Secondary School Athletic
Association introduced the
concept of Hall of Fame
basketball games, which
at the time were meant
to be scrimmages treated
as games the week before
the official start date of the
season.
They also were to be
fundraisers to help build
a Hall of Fame building,
which would be used to
highlight the various facets
of the TSSAA, its member
schools and the overall history of the association and
media members who have
helped cover it.
Ten years later, no
building has been built, the
games are still being played
and some member schools
feel as though they’re being
“played” financially.
The games made more
than $200,000 statewide
during the 2001-02 season;
last year the figure was
$115,584. The TSSAA currently takes 75 percent of
the gate receipts from the
each Hall of Fame game.
The amount was scaled
down from 80 percent in
2007, but the projected
building has been scaled
down to an exhibit permanently displayed in the
Tennessee Sports Hall of
Fame inside Bridgestone
Arena in downtown Nashville.
So a lot of coaches are
asking: Where’s the money
going? TSSAA assistant
director Matthew Gillespie
has the answer, but that
reply creates more questions.
“After doing a lot of
research and discussion
with staff and the Hall of
Champions Committee,
it was decided that the
exhibit was a more practical choice for displaying
the history of the TSSAA,”
Gillespie said. “There was
initial talk of a building,
but after looking at other
buildings and halls of fame,
it was determined that the
exhibit we have now would
be a better fit.
“It was initially built as
a traveling exhibit which
was put on display on
site at football, basketball,
Spring Fling and Mr. Football events. After a few
years, we really lucked out
by interest from the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame
to host our exhibit.”
When asked why the
state association still takes
75 percent of the gate, Gillespie said it wasn’t really
the board’s decision.
“The formula has definitely changed over the
years,” he said. “It used to
be 80 percent to the Hall of
Fame fund before expenses.
The committee voted to let
the schools pay for officials
first, then give 75 percent
of what’s left.
“There are numerous expenses annually to
update, change and upkeep
the exhibit. The main portions of the exhibit are
changed out at an annual
basis.”
Another issue has been
the games themselves.
Previously, the TSSAA
dropped the maximum
number of regular-season
contests for each team

“We need to look forward
in a positive way to what we
want this football team to be
remembered for, and there
are a lot of things moving
forward that we can accomplish.”
In racing out to an 80 start, the Crimson Tide

Mocs’ shots off,
but they win big
By David Uchiyama
Staff Writer
Nobody requested a curtain call.
But the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga freshman class played its role as
well as could be expected
in an 88-53 drubbing of Tennessee Temple on Monday
in the basketball Mocs’ season debut.
They had highlights
such as Farad Cobb setting
a freshman record and lowlights such as missing the
rim on 3-pointers. Most
importantly, they now have
one game of experience on
the college level.
“I thought Farad got more
comfortable just as this one
game went on,” UTC coach
John Shulman said. “You
wait until you see all these
kids five or six games later.
They were in a panic. Casey
[Jones] was worried about
pregame meal.”
The Mocs scored 42
points in the paint, forced 35
turnovers and turned them
into 44 points against the
crosstown Crusaders (2-2).
“I was anxious and I
was excited to play my first
game,” said Cobb, whose six
steals were a school freshman record. “I didn’t know
what to expect.
“I go out there and I had
a chance to make a layup in
the first minute and I kind

Trout, Harper get rookie awards
By Ronald Blum
NEW YORK — Mike Trout of the
Los Angeles Angels became the youngest American League Rookie of the
Year on Monday, and
Bryce Harper of the
Washington Nationals
was voted the secondyoungest winner of
the National League
honor.
Trout, who turned
21 on Aug. 7, received
all 28 first-place votes
from the Baseball Writ- Mike Trout
ers’ Association of America’s AL panel.
The center fielder was the eighth
unanimous AL pick and the first since
Tampa Bay’s Evan Longoria in 2008.
Trout, who hit .326 with 30 homers
and 83 RBIs, received the maximum
140 points. Oakland outfielder Yoenis
Cespedes was second with 63, followed
by Texas pitcher Yu Darvish (46), who
joined Trout as the only players listed
on every ballot.
Detroit second baseman Lou Whitaker had been the youngest AL winner
in 1978, but he was 2 months, 26 days
older than Trout when he took home
the award.
Before Longoria, the only unanimous AL winners were Nomar Garciaparra, Derek Jeter, Tim Salmon,
Sandy Alomar Jr., Mark McGwire and
Carlton Fisk.
Trout, a son of former Minnesota
minor league infielder Jeff Trout, spent
some time in the majors last year but
retained his rookie status. He began
this season in the minors and made
his first big-league appearance this
year on April 28 — the day of Harper’s major league debut. Trout’s season
put him in contention for the AL MVP
award along with Triple Crown winner
Miguel Cabrera of Detroit. That voting
is announced Thursday.
For winning the award, Trout earned
a $10,000 bonus on top of his $482,500
salary.
Harper turned 20 on Oct. 16. The
outfielder got 16 of 32 first-place votes
and 112 points from the NL panel.
Arizona pitcher Wade Miley was second with 12 first-place votes and 105
points, followed by Cincinnati slugger
Todd Frazier with three firsts and 45
points.
Harper was the top
pick of the 2010 amateur draft and batted
.270 with 22 home
runs and 59 RBIs as
Washington brought
postseason play to the
nation’s capital for the
first time since 1933.
Bryce
Only Tony Conigliaro
Harper
(24) hit more home
runs as a teenager.
Harper became the youngest position player in All-Star history. At 20
years, 27 days on Monday, he was 24
days older than New York Mets pitcher
Dwight Gooden when he won the NL
award in 1984.
Falcons’ center bristles
By Charles Odum
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The
Falcons’ short-yardage woes in their
first loss of the season stirred memories of similar struggles the last time
they lost — in the playoffs.
In each case, Atlanta couldn’t come
up with just 1 yard.
The Falcons couldn’t score after they
had a second down at the Saints’ 1-yard
line late in Sunday’s 31-27 loss at New
Orleans. The Falcons, who had been the
NFL’s last unbeaten team, fell to 8-1.
In the 24-2 loss at the Giants in last
season’s NFC wild-card game, the offense
was stuffed on two fourth-and-1 quarterback sneaks and a third-and-inches run.
Center Todd McClure bristled Monday when asked if there were parallels
between the two losses. McClure said
the offensive line is unfairly blamed for
the short-yardage struggles.
“That’s two totally different ballgames, and that’s what [upsets] me off
more than anything, that you guys are
going to write about how bad we are
up front, that we can’t get in the end
zone,” McClure said.
“But there’s more to it than just
blocking up front, and that’s all I’m
going to say about that because I get
really frustrated when I hear things
and read things, knowing there’s more
to it than the five guys up front, but
we take the brunt of the blame. I
don’t want to talk about that anymore,
because I don’t want to say anything
I’ll regret.”
The Saints ranked last in the NFL
with their average of 176.5 yards rushing allowed per game before holding
the Falcons to 46 yards rushing on 18
carries, an average of 2.6 yards per
attempt. Michael Turner had 13 carries for only 15 yards. Jacquizz Rodgers
led the team with 29 yards rushing on
three carries.
New Orleans led 28-17 through three
NASHVILLE — Tennessee Titans coach Mike
Munchak wants his players
to rest as much as possible
now that they’re finally getting a break.
Munchak put his team
through a light workout
Monday, then gave them
the rest of the week off.
The Titans aren’t due back
at work until next Monday,
when Munchak plans to put
them through a practice in
preparation for a visit to
Jacksonville (1-8).
A week after being put
on notice by the owner, the
Titans (4-6) responded with
their biggest win of the season — beating Miami 37-3.
“It’s just something we
need, mentally and physically, because of what we’ve
been through,” Munchak said.
“I’m glad we won it because
we needed it. It will be a lot
easier to mentally be more
positive when we do come
back. I think we will be fine.”
The Titans are bangedup with 11 players listed on
last week’s injury report, not
counting right guard Leroy
Harris, who became the 11th
man on injured reserve this
season Nov. 7.
Receiver Kenny Britt
hasn’t missed a practice,
but coaches have limited his
playing time as he recovers
from three knee surgeries
over the past year. Linebacker Colin McCarthy has been
hampered by a right ankle he
sprained in the opener, and
he had his first interception
this season in the win over
Miami. He plans to spend
this week resting.
Munchak made clear to
his Titans before they left
that they still have hope when

Torn ACL ends Vols linebacker Maggitt’s season
By Patrick Brown
Staff Writer
KNOXVILLE — Curt Maggitt
played most of the season with two
injuries.
A third one means he won’t be
playing for a while.
The Tennessee linebacker tore
the anterior cruciate ligament in his
right knee in the fourth quarter of
the Volunteers’ quadruple-overtime
loss to Missouri on Saturday.
“He’s been taking it pretty well,”
fellow sophomore linebacker A.J.
Johnson said after Monday morning’s practice. “He’s going to fight
through it. He’s going to come back
and rehab real hard.”
The 6-foot-3, 240-pound Maggitt
was playing with a nagging turf toe
and a stinger that made him miss
the Georgia State game. Those injuries limited his play count and his
effectiveness.
His knee injury occurred as he
chased Missouri quarterback James
Franklin downfield on a scramble.
Tennessee used him to “spy” on
the dual-threat Franklin, and Maggitt played perhaps his best game
of the season, finishing with five
tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and three
hurries.
“That was a real blow [that]
hurt us that last [Missouri] drive
[in regulation time],” coach Derek
Dooley said. “He was doing a great
job of copping the quarterback the
whole game, and that hurt us there
on a couple of things toward the
stretch. He was playing great in that
game.”
Maggit’s sack and strip of North
Carolina State quarterback Mike
Glennon led to a safety in the opener, and he also had a sack against
South Carolina. This injury is the
worst of a growing list for Maggitt,
who battled shoulder and calf problems during his freshman season.
Recoveries from ACL injuries
typically take six months, meaning Maggitt might not be ready for
spring practice.
“He’s my roommate, so I saw
him after the game,” Johnson said.
“I know everybody’s spirits are
going to be down after they get
hurt, but his spirit wasn’t too down.
He talked to a couple of people who
had been hurt, and he knows what
he’s got to do to get well.”
who may face a decision to stay at
Tennessee or declare for the NFL
draft.
“A lot of people talk about it
and mention it and stuff like that,”
he said, “but right now I’m just
focused on the last two games of
my junior season.
“I’m not going to say nothing
about it,” he added with a laugh.
The 6-foot-6, 323-pound James, a
four-star recruit out of high school,
has started all 35 games of his Tennessee career.
James mum on NFL
Dooley said Monday that he
didn’t understand the “huge deal”
being made of his decision to let
the clock run out at the end of regulation with two timeouts left.
“I don’t feel any differently,”
Beyond receivers Justin Hunter and Cordarrelle Patterson and
quarterback Tyler Bray, right tackle
Ja’Wuan James is another junior
No second-guessing
he said. “We were struggling on
offense. The last four possessions,
I think, we didn’t execute well, and
we weren’t looking good. When we
went out there, we were going out
there to win the game. That’s what
our philosophy was. The first play
we screw up, get the ball batted,
and then the second play we screw
up the execution.”
“What was it, about 35 seconds
[left]? We had a third-and-10. I just
didn’t have confidence that we
were going to get it.”
Dooley said he didn’t want to
give Missouri a chance by punting to dynamite return man Marcus Murphy, who has three return
touchdowns this season.
“You put the best player on

Georgia freshman punter Collin Barber, center, was inconsistent earlier this season but has been impressive the
past three games with seven kicks inside the opposing 20-yard line.
Dogs’ young punter excelling
By David Paschall
Staff Writer
Though he lags behind
quarterback Aaron Murray
and linebacker Jarvis Jones
in the attention department,
freshman punter Collin Barber has been just as hot as
the rest of the rampaging
Georgia Bulldogs.
Barber punted four times
for a 47.2-yard average during
Saturday night’s 38-0 blowout of Auburn, placing one
kick at the 3-yard line and
another at the 1. The 6-foot2, 200-pounder from Cartersville had a 48.2-yard average the week before in the
37-10 trouncing of Ole Miss,
which included a career-long
of 60.
“Earlier in the year, I was
adjusting from kicking in
high school to kicking before
more than 90,000 people,”
Barber said. “I was just wanting to get the ball off. I’m
more comfortable now, and
I’m not nearly as nervous as
I was.”
In the past three games,
Alabama
at LSU. After his Tigers rallied past Kentucky 36-33 in
an unlikely triumph dubbed
the “Bluegrass Miracle,” they
hosted Alabama and lost 31-0.
“You all live in the results
world out there, where we
kind of live in the process
world,” Saban said. “It’s hard
to get people to respond — it’s
kind of the Bluegrass Miracle
phenomenon. You play bad
but you win the game, and
then the next week you get
your [butt] kicked because
nobody responded to playing
bad because you won.
“We played a heck of a lot
better in this last game when
we got behind 20-0. Everybody all of a sudden got
emotionally better, so why
couldn’t it have been better
at the start?”
There was an emphasis
placed on tackling last week
after the Tide yielded 435
yards at LSU, Saban said,
but the Aggies broke their
share as well in racking up
418 yards.
Even Crimson Tide quarterback AJ McCarron seems
to have hit somewhat of a
ceiling. McCarron struggled
throughout the second half at
LSU before delivering a late
five-play, 72-yard touchdown
Barber has placed seven
punts inside the opposing
20-yard line.
“As you can tell, Collin
is really starting to punt the
ball extremely well,” Bulldogs coach Mark Richt said.
“I know one of his punts
against Auburn had a 4.8 or
4.9 hang time and went about
45 yards, and if you can do
that, that’s like gold. He’s had
some good punts, knocking
them inside the 10 and the
5.”
Georgia bid farewell
to Drew Butler and Blair
Walsh, a specialist tandem
now in the NFL, and began
this season with a starting
punter and kicker without
previous college experience.
That was a first for the Bulldogs since 1985, when punter
Chris Carpenter and kicker
Steve Crumley were redshirt
freshmen.
Marshall Morgan, Georgia’s freshman place-kicker,
has been for more adventurous than Barber, having
missed four extra points
this year and badly hooking
a 47-yard field-goal attempt
against Ole Miss. He enters
this week’s game against
Georgia Southern having
made 13 consecutive extra
points.
“I think Marshall is just
getting more comfortable
and doing what’s coming
natural to him, or at least
what he’s been doing in high
school,” Richt said. “I think
both of those guys are just
beginning to feel a little more
comfortable, and it’s good,
because it’s not easy to be a
true freshman and get thrown
into those roles.”
Barber had a 57-yard punt
in the opener but struggled
to a 36.6-yard average in the
second game at Missouri. He
did not punt particularly well
in additional league games
against Tennessee and Kentucky but has erupted the
past three weeks.
Much like the rest of the
nation’s No. 5 team.
“I would like to break
records, but I’m not going
to try and boot one 60 yards
just for my sake if they can
return it for 40,” Barber said.
“I want them all fair caught.
That’s my goal, because that
would benefit the team more
than it would benefit me.”
And the attention, or the
lack thereof?
“The better I do, the more
people hear about me and
know me,” he said smiling. “I
get a ‘good game’ every now
and then, and it’s something
that is gradually getting better.”

the Times Free Press that
Dooley won’t return next
season, but with the Vols
still needing wins against
the Commodores in Nashville and against Kentucky
in Knoxville the following
Saturday, a timetable on
an official announcement
from the university remains
unclear.
Dooley, who is 15-20 overall and 4-18 in the SEC with
the Vols, said he met with
Hart on Sunday but didn’t
ask if he’d be retained.
“I didn’t ask him that,
but I did ask him a lot of
things,” Dooley said. “We
talked very frankly about
it. He told me he had not
made a decision, whether
we go 6-6, despite what all
the reports are.
“Either the sources are
wrong or Dave wasn’t being
forthright with me, and
I have no reason to think
Dave’s not being forthright.
He’s an honest man, he’s
always been honest with me
and I’ve appreciated how
he’s handled everything
about this. I really have.”
Though he declined to
divulge any details of it,
Dooley said he addressed
his team about his status
before practice Monday.
“They’re getting banged
up on their phone the way
my kids were getting banged
up on their phone and the
way my wife was getting
banged up [on the phone],”
he said. “Everybody said I
was fired, and I didn’t even
know it. I’m sitting there
working on Vandy, and I’d
already talked to Dave.
“You’ve got to come
home and address all that
with your family, and you’ve
got to address it in the
morning with the team.”
The players who met
Wiedmer
liked than a lawyer.
For instance: “I can give
you compelling arguments
why I should [return],
and there’s plenty of compelling arguments why I
shouldn’t.”
Clarence Darrow
couldn’t have said it better.
Yet until Saturday’s 51-48,
four-overtime home loss to
Missouri — which entered
the game with the SEC’s
12th worst offense among
14 schools — a lot of Vols
fans struggled with that
very notion. Neither keeping him for a fourth season
nor canning him after three
delivered the kind of solution that brings easy sleep.
Possibly embracing
President Obama’s fouryear mantra of “We inherited a mess,” Dooley and his
incredibly shrinking fan club
have similarly campaigned
for patience, their argument
not without merit.
But every coach eventually reaches that moment
when his team’s supporters either believe in him or
believe it’s time to move on.
Assuming Dooley really is
gone sooner than later, Missouri will prove his point of
no return.
Missouri wasn’t just
a winnable game, it was
a game already won, the
Tigers down 28-14 on the
scoreboard after trailing
384-64 in offensive yards at
intermission.
Yet somehow UT lost
in four overtimes, though
Dooley officially lost the
fans at the end of regulation
with the media after practice
and before Dooley’s news
conference said it was business as usual, with the team
cleaning up mistakes from
Saturday’s loss and turning
its attention to Vanderbilt.
Offensive tackles Ja’Wuan
James and Antonio “Tiny”
Richardson said Dooley’s
pre-practice message was
nothing out of the ordinary.
Other players declined to
reveal any details.
“It’s an inside thing,”
senior linebacker Herman
Lathers said. “It’s between
us and the team, so I’m not
going to really disclose that
to the media. It’s a family,
and things stay inside.
“It’s the same as all the
past weeks. There’s a lot
of outside distractions, but
it don’t bother our team.
We’re a close-knit bunch,
and we’re staying together
no matter what.”
Throughout all the persistent distractions and
outside chatter surrounding
Dooley’s future in the past,
the players’ message has
remained the same: We’re
staying together.
“He talked to us and
let us know that we need
to focus on these next two
games,” James said. “There’s
a lot of negative outside, in
the media and stuff like that,
but we’re just going to try
to keep it in-house and win
these next two games.
“It’s pretty hard. Y’all
ask us; our families ask
us. I’m getting phone calls
from parents and stuff like
that, but I feel like we’ve
done a pretty good job and
we’ve shown we’re more
mature.”
Dooley said the most difficult part of the situation
was dealing with his family
“when they’re seeing things
are contrary to what their
dad’s telling them.”

when he allowed the clock
to run out rather than try to
avoid overtime.
So now we’re in a mess
of Dooley’s making and
Hart’s choosing, the athletic
director’s protracted public
silence only making matters
worse.
“My parents are on the
phone: ‘What’s going on up
there?’” said junior offensive
lineman Ja’Wuan James,
whose talent is proof that
Dooley the recruiter could
do grand work on occasion.
“We’re just trying to win
these next two games.”
What’s going on is a circus, soap opera and reality
show all rolled into one.
And we’re all a part of it
— media, players, coaches,
administrators, fans, all of
us — until Hart opens his
mouth concerning whether
to close the Derek Dooley
chapter in the UT football
history book.
For now, at least until or
unless another loss arrives,
Hart’s hesitation is arguably admirable. To cost the
current Vols players a bowl
game because you wanted
to please the fans can make
you as much a part of the
problem as the solution,
something no administrator wants.
Yet it’s also been said
that Nero fiddled while
Rome burned. If Hart
doesn’t already have a
replacement lined up and
the Next Big Thing heads
elsewhere before Dooley is
dismissed, such procrastination from the top could
torch UT football for years
to come.

UTC’s ‘circus’
hasn’t left town
By John Frierson
Staff Writer
What ever happened to
the “circus” plays?
Remember the middle
of the season when University of Tennessee at
Chattanooga quarterbacks
Jacob Huesman and Terrell Robinson were lining up all over the field,
passes were coming from
anywhere and nobody but
the Mocs knew what was
coming next?
The Mocs haven’t done
too many of what offensive
coordinator Marcus Satterfield called “circus” plays
since they did a bunch of
them in their 31-10 Southern
Conference win at Furman
on Oct. 13. Since then, they
have run a more straightlaced offense.
“I didn’t anticipate not
getting as crazy, but I guess
circumstances kind of dictated what we did,” Satterfield said Monday, two
days after UTC fell 16-13
in overtime at Wofford. “It
wasn’t a philosophical thing,
I mean, [coach Russ Huesman] loves it.”
Against Western Carolina, those kinds of plays
weren’t needed. Against
Georgia Southern and Wofford, two tight games that
went to overtime, limited
plays and possessions kept
UTC from trying anything
too wild or risky.
UTC (5-5, 4-3) is sixth
in the SoCon in scoring
offense (25.7 ppg) and last
in total offense (348.4 ypg).
Those aren’t gaudy numbers, but Huesman can
live with them because the
Mocs are fourth in scoring
defense (20.7) and first in
total defense (302.6).
“Are we the most dynamic offense in the world? No,”
he said. “But we’re pretty
efficient, I think. You know,
it’s easy to draw those plays
up. It’s hard to call them.”
Saturday is UTC’s season
finale, against Elon (3-7, 1-6),
and there might be a few
surprises left in the Mocs’
playbook.
“We’re not still creating
stuff,” Satterfield said, “but
we’ve got some stuff that
we’re not getting through
the year without using it.”

time in three weeks he’s

in the
fourth quarter, he was 5-for7 for 45 yards and ran the ball
six times for 27 yards.
Heading into Saturday,
Jacob has 1,478 yards passing
and 795 rushing. He needs
166 more passing yards to
set the freshman record.
Saying goodbye
The Mocs have a small
senior class of just seven
players to honor before
Saturday’s game: Adam

UTC also will recognize
some redshirt juniors who

It is little consolation,
of course, but in the latest

Kentucky, Duke vie in Dome
By Gary Graves
LEXINGTON, Ky.—
John Calipari isn’t happy
with Kentucky’s effort on the
backboards.
He didn’t specifically say
anything to the No. 3 Wildcats about their rebounding
during weekend practices.
But by the time players finished running, the coach had
gotten his message across.
T h e Wi l d c a t s we r e
pushed around in their 72-69
season-opening victory over
Maryland. The Terrapins
had 28 offensive rebounds
in outglassing Kentucky 5438. That’s not supposed to
happen against Kentucky’s
vaunted frontcourt featuring
7-foot Willie Cauley-Stein
and 6-10 Nerlens Noel.
Calipari doesn’t want it
to happen again. Neither
does Cauley-Stein, who said
he “doesn’t want to do anything” but rebound after the
extra running.
Kentucky plays No. 8
Duke tonight in Atlanta. It’s
the first meeting between the
storied programs since the
Blue Devils’ 95-92 overtime
win in 2001.
“My whole game is to go
get boards,” Cauley-Stein
said Monday. “Like, that’s my
whole plan. ... After all the
running we’ve had to do, my
sole purpose is trying to go
get boards.”
The freshman center
emphasized that Calipari’s
drills weren’t conducted in
anger.
“He wasn’t mad,” Cauley-Stein said. “He was like,
well, you’ve got to do it. It’s a
learning experience. Nobody
likes to run, so you’ve got to
have some kind of punishment. He had a smile on his
face.”
Calipari said he had
been too busy preparing his
young squad in other areas
to concentrate on rebounding drills. But that will have
changed when the Wildcats
take the floor against the
his cool with a Texas Tech
graduate assistant along the
sideline during Saturday’s
win over Kansas.
The third-year coach
said he had watched a
replay of his outburst after
the 41-34 victory and saw
what had fans upset. He
called his actions “unfortunate” and said he had
apologized to Kevin Oliver, who works with special teams.
“It upset me, too,”
Tuberville said. “You don’t
do things like that, and it
was obvious I reached up,
grabbed his headset and
pulled on it. Heat of the
battle, some things happen
sometimes that you’d like to
take back.”
Tuberville said he did
not strike Oliver.
Video of the confrontation went viral on the
Internet. It shows Tuberville angrily facing Oliver
and appearing to strike him
after the Red Raiders had
difficulty getting the right
personnel on the field.
Cougars’ Wilson quits
At Spokane, Wash.,
Washington State coach
Mike Leach denied his players are subjected to any type
of abuse, as alleged by star
receiver Marquess Wilson.
Wilson made the allegations
in a letter he released Saturday in which he quit the
team and also complained
that the coaching staff
would “belittle, intimidate
and humiliate us.”
Leach said during his
regular Monday meeting
with reporters: “There is
no truth about it at all.” He
described Wilson as a disgruntled player.

against Duke with some of
the same point guard questions they had before its
opener. Sophomore Ryan
Harrow, who has been bothered the past week by the
flu, played just 10 minutes
against Maryland and hasn’t
practiced. Graduate student
Julius Mays, who suffered
a cut under his eyebrow in
the game, also didn’t practice after swelling developed
Sunday.
Calipari said Mays didn’t
receive stitches but is expected to be available against the
Blue Devils. The Wildcats
don’t seem concerned.
One reason is Jarrod Polson’s play against Maryland.
Prepared to play extensive
minutes with Harrow ailing,
the junior responded with
career highs of 10 points,
three assists, two rebounds
and a pair of game-clinching
free throws.
“I definitely feel more
comfortable with my name
getting called,” Polson said.
COLLEGE BASKETBALL REPORT
MEN’S TOP 25
5 leagues to vie
for playoff spot
DENVER — The new
college football postseason
system will have six games
as originally planned, but
now a spot in the marquee
bowls will be reserved for
the best team from a group
of five conferences that
includes the Big East.
The tweak to the postseason format that will start
in 2014 was made Monday
during a meeting of conference commissioners and
university presidents.
In September, a proposal
was put forth to add a seventh game to the format that
would match the best team
from the Big East, Mountain West, Conference USA,
Sun Belt and Mid-American
Conference against a team
from the Pac-12 or Big 12.
Instead of that plan, a guaranteed spot was created
to give those conferences
access to the top games.
The national semifinals
will rotate through six bowl
games, setting up two playoff games and four major
bowl games every season.
The title game will be bid
out each year through a
separate process similar to
the Super Bowl.
The six games will
include three “contract
bowls” and three “host
bowls.” The spots in the
contract bowls are reserved
for teams that have deals
with those bowls.
The top team from the
other five conferences without ties to a contract bowl
will be assured a spot in one
of the host bowls. Under the
original plan, teams from
those five leagues could
get in only through an atlarge bid.
Blue Devils.
He said his players should
have a grasp of fundamental
concepts such as positioning
themselves for rebounds.
“It’s more or less us being
conscious about [the fact
that] we follow the flight
of the ball, which is I think
sixth grade,” Calipari said. “It
might be seventh grade [that
you learn] you don’t follow
the flight of the ball. You see
the flight and then you go
find somebody [to block out]
and then go get the ball.
“But again, if we haven’t
worked on it I can’t be
upset. And we hadn’t. I just
thought, we’re 7-foot, 6-11,
6-10, 6-9, we’ll rebound. No.
When your guards are taking
off and they’re wedging you
under and you’re looking at
the ball and you’re next to
the cheerleader, you’re probably not going to get the ball.
... It’s going to take time.”
Rebounding isn’t the only
issues the Wildcats have.

Chad Barger has resigned as Sequatchie County’s football coach after the Indians went 2-8 in 2012, his first
losing season in five years on the job.
Barger resigns at Sequatchie
By Stephen Hargis
Staff Writer
After one of the most successful stretches in program history,
Chad Barger has stepped down as
Sequatchie County’s football coach.
Barger resigned Monday following the
first losing season (2-8) in his five-year
tenure with the program.
“I just felt like I need to step back
and let somebody else have a shot at
leading the team,” Barger said. “We
struggled this year. We went backwards. You rack your brain to see
what you could do. We were extremely
young, but that’s no excuse. Maybe
some fresh blood will help turn things
around.
“I’m sure I’ll get the coaching bug
— it’ll bite me again. But I just think if
I’m going to coach again, it needs to be
somewhere else.”
Fame
from 26 to 24. When the Hall of Fame
games were added, they were thought
to be treated as glorified scrimmages,
and coaches were given the option of
counting them or not.
That choice created confusion as
some coaches counted the games
regardless of the outcome, while others
counted the wins but not the losses.
“My stand is that it’s an official
game,” East Hamilton girls’ coach
Derek Morris said. “We’ve counted all
of them, even the ones we’ve lost. You
don’t have as much time to prepare
nowadays, so we’re ready to get on the
court and see what we have. We get to
play other teams, and it doesn’t really
matter how we do. We’re tested early,
and if we’re blown out we have until
the next week to be prepared.”
The TSSAA ruled last season that
if a game is played, it is to be counted toward the regular-season record
— win or lose.
“In regards to the games and the
coaches counting them, our stance has
been that the games do and should
count,” Gillespie said. “The Hall of
Fame games are not a requirement.
It is an exception that is made to the
maximum number of 24 regular-season
games schools are allowed. If it was
not an exception to the regular-season
“
Barger, who compiled a 29-26 overall
record at the Dunlap school, brought
stability to a program that had had four
coaches in six years and had gone 1-19
the two seasons before he took over. A
1996 Bledsoe County graduate, he was a
Sequatchie County assistant from 2001
to ’04, working as defensive coordina-
tor and later offensive coordinator.
After he coached Cannon County
to to its first winning record in 29
years, he guided the Indians to a 6-5
record in his first season — the first
winning record for the program in
eight years — and led them to consecutive winning seasons for the first
time in 13 years. They reached the
second round of the Class 3A playoffs
two years ago.
“We really appreciate what he’s
done for our program,” Sequatchie
County principal Tommy Layne said.
“I told him he didn’t have to [resign],
but he had his mind made up. He did
a super job of turning the program
around. The numbers are up, and the
future is very bright because of what
he’s built.”

limit, then why would they not count
as regular-season games?”
Each team is allowed two Hall of
Fame dates in the week before the season. On the court, most coaches feel
it’s a benefit because their teams can
step on the floor in an actual game setting, with an actual crowd and officials.
Some coaches — mainly boys’ coaches
— shy away from the games because
they don’t have their football players back in the mix or they don’t feel
they’ve had enough
time to implement
their system.
“They’ve taken two
games away, which
really doesn’t bother
us because we already
have a hard enough
time scheduling opponents,” Bradley Central
Kent Smith
coach Kent Smith said,
“but the fact that we have to take 75
percent of our gate and send it to the
state is sometimes difficult to swallow.
“Does it take that much to keep up
the exhibit?”
Some also choose not to participate
in something that would benefit the
state association financially — especially when they don’t see where the
money is going.
Several area coaches said it’s cheaper to travel for the games as opposed to
hosting them, with the thought being
that the process of ticket-handlers, offi-
cials, security and concessions in addition to the TSSAA’s fee is a problem
better left for somebody else.
“It’s a pretty big
chore to keep up with
the paperwork and
f inances of everything that comes with
the game,” Cleveland
coach Jason McCowan
said. “After you send
the preset percentage
to the TSSAA, you have
to pay everybody else Jason
with what’s remaining, McCowan
in addition to getting your team ready
to play.
“That’s just one less hassle that I
have to deal with. I’d rather scrimmage,
go to Georgia or play away so I don’t
have to deal with the finances.”
Although most of them are participating, only 25 of the 78 area teams in
Tennessee are hosting Hall of Fame
games.
“I wish we didn’t have practice
until after Thanksgiving,” McCowan
said. “You’re out of the way of football, and you would have to only worry
about the Christmas holiday. Then as
coaches, you don’t have to worry about
whether or not your kids are as interested in March as they are when the
season starts.”

ANALYSIS
immediate calls for Edwards
to be suspended.
But doing so would have
been the immediate end of the
policy, and Edwards instead
got off with a mere three races
of probation. Then came last
November at Texas, when
Busch blatantly put Hornaday,
a championship contender,
into the wall under caution.
Unlike Edwards, he absolutely deserved to be suspended. He had been out of
control most of last season
and arrogantly behaving as if
he were untouchable.
Gordon’s decision to wreck
Bowyer — he said for a season’s
worth of misdeeds — is more
like the Edwards incident.
were present for the unveiling, Smith said.
“It was a great event,” she
said.
While she is waiting until
the spring semester for relief
on her teaching load — “I
still want to be in the classroom; I love teaching,” she
said — she wasted no time
jumping back into her new
old role.
She surprised Jay Price,
who coaches both basketball teams, by having a lot
of details taken care of for
their Nov. 3 home openers before he even brought
them up.
“I like her energy. She hit
the ground running, trying
to get a lot of things done,”
Price said. “We’ve had a
really good relationship in
my 10 years here, and I think
we really believe in the same
things about working with
kids — trying to help them
as far as we can but also
pushing them to do the right
things.”
Said Dennis: “I have
known Kim since I got here,
and she has been nothing
but helpful and professional
in everything she has done
with me. I am sure she will
work to get this department
where we all feel it needs to
be, and her vision is a great
one for everyone involved in
our department.”
Price took both his teams
to national tournaments
two years ago, and Dennis
has had his baseball Tigers
ranked No. 1 in the country
and playing in the NJCAA
World Series, so Smith sees
her role as helping outstanding coaches focus on their
main jobs without having
to fret about background
details.
“I just want to make
things more efficient, more
unified and more productive
with everyone on board,” she
said, praising the support she
already has received from
president Jim Catanzaro
and dean Anne Carroll on
down. That includes business office, security, custodial and secretarial personnel as well as the coaches,
she noted.
“I’ve just been steering
the ship,” Smith said. “When
you have all these people on
the ship working with you, it
makes your job easy. They’ve
all been incredible.
“Yes, there have been
headaches to deal with, which
is to be expected, but I’m
thankful for the opportunity
to get back involved with college athletics. It’s something
I love and have a passion for.
There have been a few days
when I’ve come home and
just been exhausted, but that
was a great feeling.”

NASCAR had a real dilemma on its hands with this Jeff
Gordon mess hanging over
the season finale.
History suggested Gordon
could have been suspended
from Sunday’s race at Homestead-Miami
Speedway as
punishment
for intentionally wrecking
Clint Bowyer
at Phoenix,
sparking a
brawl in the
garage. That’s
the punish- Jeff Gordon
ment Kyle Busch got a year
ago for retaliating against
Ron Hornaday Jr. in a Truck
Series event at Texas.
But was NASCAR seriously going to sit the four-time
champion? From the season
finale?
Nope. He instead got a
$100,000 fine from NASCAR,
plus being docked 25 points
in the standings.
The penalty was the right
call by NASCAR, which
walks a fine line between
sport and entertainment.
Some viewed Sunday as a
black eye, but others were
celebrating it as one of the
best races of the season. It
certainly created a buzz.
“The sport was made on
fights. We should have more
fights,” winner Kevin Harvick said. “Fights are what
made NASCAR what it is.”
NASCAR heard the complaints from fans that drivers
had become too corporate,
the sport had strayed too far
from its rough-and-tumble
roots and scores were no longer settled at the track. The
2009 finale at Homestead
was one of those throwback
races, and the crowd roared
as drivers used their cars to
deliver old-school justice.
NASCAR relaxed at the
start of the next season, using
a “Boys, Have At It” policy
that allowed the drivers to
police themselves.
The boys tested NASCAR
just four races in when Carl
Edwards waited 153 laps for
his crew to fix his car so he
could get back on the track at
Atlanta to wreck Brad Keselowski. Edwards’ high-speed
contact sent Keselowski’s
car airborne, and there were

A Magical Adventure for the Whole Family
Big fine for Gordon right call
By Jenna Fryer
Kim Smith had a full
day at Chattanooga State
on Saturday. She got there
well before the 1 p.m. softball scrimmage to make sure
things were lined up for that
and the 2 p.m. basketball
doubleheader, and she went
back and forth between the
two campus facilities until
basketball was done and she
could take softball Wall of
Fame honoree Charmaine
Johns to dinner.
As the athletic director
for nearly three weeks, Smith
now is responsible for a lot
more than her full load of
five physical education lecture classes.
And so far she’s loving
it. The former Kim Weems,
a Greeneville (Tenn.) High
School and University of
Tennessee at Chattanooga
and Carson-Newman College
basketball guard, has gone
back to her roots.
Smith came to Chattanooga State
in 1989 as
the women’s
basketball
coach, from
Andy Landers’ staff at
Georgia, and
served three
years in that
position. She Kim Smith
became the athletic director
in 1990 and continued in that
role until ’98. Motherhood
led her to ask for a teaching-only position, but she
soon was back helping with
athletics as the department’s
academic adviser.
She did that until three
years or so ago, but since
then she had stayed out of
the school’s athletic business
despite her office being near
the coaches’ quarters in the
gym. She had stayed active
in sports, though: With two
daughters now in the eighth
and sixth grades, she has
been a summer fastpitch
softball coach for nearly a
decade, and the week she
took over as AD again she
played golf with baseball
coach Greg Dennis for the
third year in Chatt State’s
intramural fundraiser.
Going to the baseball
alumni day on Oct. 27 was
her first official appearance
as AD, although she had
attended the Oct. 19 meeting with the softball players
when they were told that
coaches Beth Keylon-Randolph and Steve Jaecks were
leaving and new head coach
Blythe Golden was introduced.
Jaecks had been the AD,
and Smith took over on his
official departure to help
Keylon-Randolph at East
Carolina University.
In addition to the ceremony Saturday for Johns, the
2012 softball team was honored for its national championship, complete with a sign
on the outfield fence and a
permanent bronze plaque
including the names of all
the players. And all of them

And, my friends, I know I
am reasoning soundly on
this one.
In the seven years
I was chairman of the
Southeast Tennessee
Development District, I
field-tested it.
I was totally committed
to downtown development during my tenure
in office — from the time
the Tennessee Aquarium
was unpopular and called
“Jack’s fish tank” to the
opening of the Tennessee Riverpark. But I fear
some are so focused on
downtown development
that they do not grasp the
powerful possibilities of
a regional jobs program.
It’s not either/or but both/
and.
John Germ is an exception. When we were on
the River City board, he
was for bringing county
mayors from surrounding
counties on the board to
start tapping into regional
perspectives. For a while,
we did it, but it was
dropped.
There are three good
reasons for forging a
regional program. The
main one, as I pointed out
in an earlier column, is
that surrounding counties
have nearly all of the land
we need to locate companies desiring to bring jobs
here. We simply do not
have another windfall situation like the land where
we put VW and Amazon.
The economic facts of
life will force Chattanooga
to see our surrounding
county communities as
“us” rather than “them.” A
good example was when

aime Jorge walked a path strewn with
plastic flower petals on his way to
becoming a celebrated, world-traveled
violinist.
During his childhood in communist
Cuba, Jorge’s mother noticed her son’s
aptitude for music at age 3 when he taught
himself to play melodies on an eight-key,
plastic saxophone.
By the time he turned 5, she had enrolled
him in private lessons. In a society in which
most families were living hand to mouth,
that was a luxury few could afford. To pay
his teacher, Jorge’s mother stayed up all
night once a week making plastic flowers
she would sell on the streets.
When Jorge was 10, his father submitted
a formal request to leave Cuba on religious
grounds. The family was approved, and they
moved to the United States in 1980.
Years later, while playing Vittorio Monti’s
“Csardas” at a talent show at Loyola University of Chicago, Jorge discovered the power
of music to move people. The realization
radically changed his perspective on his talent.
“Everybody stood up and clapped for
minutes and yelled. I was shocked,” he said.
“I thought that if music had that kind of
power, I should take it seriously and use it
to inspire and motivate and challenge others
with it.”
Years later, Jorge had a second realization, this time of a spiritual nature. Halfway
through medical school, he was paying for
his studies with near weekly concerts, but
something felt off. He prayed to God for a
sign of what he should do and afterward
became convinced to pursue music full
time.

Daniels
For the last 25 years, Jorge, a
resident of Ooltewah since 2001, has
taken his musical ministry around the
world. He has performed secular and
religious selections in 42 countries
on five continents, including appearances at Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln
Center and on the Crystal Cathedral’s
“Hour of Power.”
Q: Was the move to America
meaningful to you at 10, or were you
too young to realize its significance?
A: It was almost like going from a
black-and-white TV to a color TV. The
day we arrived, I chewed gum and ate
an apple and a grape for the first time
in my life. I went to a store, and I
had never seen a store with shelves
and clothing and food and snacks
and drinks. We came from a very
closed environment. We found
Americans to be very kind, helpful and very generous and giving
people.

Boundless curiosity
lifts a young puppeteer
Garrison
Clower with
Beastie of
“Beastie’s
Birthday
Party.”
By Casey Phillips
Staff Writer
Garrison Clower has always been exceedingly curious, a characteristic that, at times,
has spelled trouble for the family appliances.
Some of the victims of his innate desire
to understand how things work include the
family vacuum cleaner, which he disassembled at age 2. Later, he turned his attention
to the toilet, which he flushed repeatedly
to figure out how it functioned, eventually
flooding the bathroom and leaking water
through the kitchen ceiling. The family was
forced to evacuate for a week while repairs
were made.
“If he sees something he’s never seen
before, he’ll stop and study it,” said Garrison’s mother, Anna Clower. “I had to learn
to slow down with him and stop and study
things I might otherwise miss.”
For years, Clower and her husband sought
an outlet for their son’s passion. They tried
all the “traditional sports,” but none took.
Garrison would dutifully take the field,
Clower said, but he was just as likely to be
bent over looking at grasshoppers as he was
to be paying attention to the game.
Last year, however, all that changed when

DEAR ABBY: I want to share my experience
with being a distracted driver. One gorgeous, sunny
day a few months ago, I happened
to glance down at my iPad and the
next thing I knew, I had hit the car
in front of me. The airbags engaged
and hit me and my golden retriever,
who was in the front seat with me.
He was so freaked out he jumped out

on, those devices go in the trunk. — REFORMED

DEAR REFORMED:
That’s a start. And in the

Offer help and hope
to a grieving friend
DEAR DOCTOR K: A close friend suddenly and
unexpectedly lost her spouse. How can I help her
through her grief?
DEAR READER: It’s
not easy to console a grieving friend;
you can’t
fix the
situation.
Instead, just
be present
and offer
hope toward
the future.
Dr. K
Accept
Dr. Anthony
that your
Komaroff
friend’s
grieving is a natural process
that will gradually ebb. Here
are a few specific, practical
pieces of advice:
■ Name names. Don’t
be afraid to mention the
deceased.
■ Offer hope. People
who have grieved often
remember that the person
who reassured them that
things would get better was
the one who helped them
transition from pain to a
renewed sense of life.
■ Make phone calls.
Call to express your sympathy. Steer clear of such
phrases as “It’s God’s will”
or “It’s for the best.”
■ Write a note. If you
had a relationship with the
deceased, try to include a
warm, caring or funny anecdote.
■ Keep in touch. Your
friend may need you more
after the first few weeks,
when other people may stop
calling.
■ Help out. Be specific
when offering help. Volunteer to shop or do laundry,
bring dinner or pass on
information about funeral
arrangements. Sometimes
your help is most valuable
later. For example, offer to
help go through papers or
belongings whenever your
friend is ready to do so.
■ Make a date. Ask
your friend to join you for a
walk or meal once a week.
Don’t take it personally if
your friend rebuffs offers or
doesn’t return every phone
call. Keep trying.
■ Listen well instead
of advising. People often
work through grief and
trauma by telling their story
over and over. Unless you
are asked for your advice,
don’t be quick to offer it.
■ Avoid judgments.
Your friend’s life and emotional landscape have
changed enormously, possibly forever. You may wish he
or she would move on, but
you can’t speed the process
or even ensure that it happens. Let your friend heal at
the pace that feels right.
A patient of mine lost
her husband when they
both were in their early
50s. She had been a stayat-home mom with several
hobbies but no profession.
Their kids were in college
and unlikely to need much
more financial help. (This
was decades ago, when college tuition fees were more
manageable.) Friends and
family asked her if there
was something they could
do to help, but she couldn’t
think of anything. So they
had nothing to do.
One friend, though,
didn’t ask, “Is there something I can do?” Instead, she
thought about the woman’s
hobbies. The woman loved
looking at homes for sale,
even though she had no
interest in buying. The
friend said: “You ought to
become a real estate agent,
and I’ve done some homework. This is the training
and credentials you’ll need.”
It worked. The woman spent
the next 20 years as one of
the most successful agents
in her community.

Book awards seek a bigger
splash, red carpet and all
By Leslie Kaufman
c. New York Times News Service
When the publishing elite
gathers for the National Book
Awards dinner Wednesday
evening in Manhattan, there
will be signs everywhere of the
aspirations to turn this oncedowdy event into a glamorous
party.
The ceremony — held at
a Marriott in Midtown until a
few years ago — will be at the
cavernously ornate Cipriani
Wall Street. There will be an
Oscar-style red carpet inside
the ballroom to welcome celebrity guests like the former teenactress-turned-author Molly
Ringwald. Inside, a Brooklyn
DJ named Rabbi Darkside will
be spinning the tunes.
These flourishes are just
the most visible part of the
makeover for a literary award
considered one of the most
prestigious in the United
States. The National Book
Foundation, which presents
the prizes, has been instituting
changes behind the scenes as
well, tweaking the nomination
process.
This year it issued new
instructions to the judges, in
red ink no less, apparently
as a signal to the judges that
it was OK to nominate writers whose books were widely
read. Critics had complained
that in recent years judges had
preferred little-known authors,
which diminished the award’s
stature.
“Fame or obscurity, small
press or large, should have
no bearing on your deliberations,” the board wrote. The
result is the best-known list of
nominees for fiction in years,
including Junot Deaz, Louise
Erdrich and Dave Eggers.
And more changes are coming.
The foundation has been
taking a tough look at itself,
hiring a consultant to survey
industry insiders — booksellers, editors and even critics
— to see if the award process
itself needs to be reformed to
attract more attention.
On the table are proposals like expanding the judging
pool beyond just writers to
include well-known cultural
figures of all types, and limiting
for the first time who may submit award entries. (Currently
any publisher can submit as
many books as it wants in any
category as long as the author
is an American citizen.)
The goal is to add more sex
appeal to an industry that’s not
exactly known for it — but not,
the organizers insist, just for its
own sake.
“It’s not about being glitzy,”
said David Steinberger, the
chief executive of Perseus
Books and chairman of the
foundation. “It’s about increasing the impact great books have
on the culture.”
Domingo Martinez, left, author of “The Boy Kings of Texas,” laughs with a former
high school classmate during a book signing after he gave a talk at the University of
Texas at Brownsville. The book has been nominated for a National Book Award in the
nonfiction category.
The unstated model here is
not the Oscars or the Emmys,
but rather the Man Booker
Prize, Britain’s top literary
honor. Man Booker gives only
one award, for fiction, but
its imprimatur gives books a
second life that traditionally
generates more sales, even for
nominees who don’t win.
“When a book is shortlisted
for the Man Booker prize, it
sells another 50,000 copies,”
said Morgan Entrekin, president of Grove/Atlantic Press
and vice chairman of the
National Book Foundation’s
board. “It can transform the
fate of book.”
“The winner of National
Book Awards succeeds,” he
added. “But I would like to see
it have that kind of the effect on
the shortlist as well.”
The foundation’s board
members believe that Man
Booker is so effective because
it has integrated itself with politics and the broader popular
culture in Britain.
Judges for the Booker, for
example, are not just writers
but also entertainment stars
with a literary bent — among
them Dan Stevens, the actor
who plays Matthew Crawley on
“Downton Abbey,” and Fiona
Shaw, the Irish actress who has
been in the Harry Potter movies and HBO’s “True Blood.”
When the National Book
Awards were first presented
in 1950, they had that same
crossover appeal. The award
ceremony was held at the Waldorf-Astoria and for the next
decades attracted people from
all walks of life including Eleanor Roosevelt and Mayor John
V. Lindsay of New York.
More important, it spotted
and promoted major talents
like John Updike and Philip
Roth.
By the late 1990s, however,
the event had narrowed and
was attended almost solely
by publishing insiders. Critics also complained that the
awards were increasingly being
used to recognize overlooked
authors who hadn’t obtained a
popular audience.
“The awards were stuffy
and were visited upon by
corporate elders,” said Paul
Bogaards, director of publicity
for Knopf Doubleday.
In 2004 the foundation
recruited Harold Augenbraum
as executive director. Three
years later he brought in Steinberger, who in turn brought in
Entrekin and the high-profile
literary agent Lynn Nesbit,
whose client list has included
Tom Wolfe, Gore Vidal and
Robert Caro among others. A
turnaround began.
The organizers built a series
of events apart from the dinner, which is also a $1,000-aplate fundraiser, to broaden the
award’s appeal. They started
a party earlier in the week to
honor fiction writers under 35
and created a mix of the literary and the musical. (Neko
Case, of the New Pornographers, will be the party’s host
this year, and the poet Thomas
Sayers Ellis will be mixing the
tunes.)
Then three years ago the
foundation moved the dinner
to Cipriani. The event quickly
drew a smattering of boldface
names like Vogue’s editor,
Anna Wintour, and the “Sex
and the City” author Candace
Bushnell.
The organizers also started
an after-party that was opened
up to awards attendees, as well
as younger people in the industry who might not be in on the
fundraising dinner.
The success of these ventures — the after-party now
has a waiting list — fueled a
desire by board members to
press further, and create a
more public presence for the
award.
This year for this first time
the foundation announced the
finalists live on television, on
MSNBC’s popular “Morning
Joe” program.
“Usually we get about
10,000 unique visitors” to the
website after the announcement, Augenbraum said, “and
we got 22,000 the morning we
announced on ‘Morning Joe.”’
The board also hired a consultant at the beginning of the
year who gave extensive questionnaires to people in the field
— writers, agents, booksellers, librarians and past judges
— to solicit their thoughts
on how the process could be
improved.
Augenbraum insisted nothing will be decided until the
December board meeting,
but he acknowledged that the
questionnaire asked whether
the number of entrants should
be limited. The current setup,
while democratic, produces a
reading burden so daunting
that few high-profile people
are willing to judge.
Another question being
considered is whether the
awards should have a long list
of nominees as well as a shortlist, similar to the Booker prize,
a feature that feeds anticipation
leading up to the announcement of the winner.
Laughing in the storm:
Comics don’t shy from Sandy
By Larry Neumeister
NEW YORK — Comedian Dave
Attell told a packed house at the Comedy Cellar that New York after Superstorm Sandy had a familiar feel. “It was
dark. Toilets were backing up. ... It was
pretty much like it always was.”
Another comic, Paul Mecurio, told
the same crowd that he got so many
calls from worried family members that
he started making things up about how
bad it was.
“I’m drinking my own urine to survive,” he joked.
New York’s comedy clubs, some of
which had to shut down or go on generator power in the aftermath of the
storm, dealt with a bad situation like
they always have — by turning Sandy
into a running punchline.
“If they’re going to do jokes on
Sept. 12 about Sept. 11, then this thing
isn’t going to slow us down,” said Vic
Henley, the emcee of a show Oct. 28 at
Gotham Comedy Club.
Sean Flynn, Gotham’s operating
manager, said comics were including the storm in their acts but had to
be careful nonetheless not to make
people feel worse than they already
did.
“There’s the old adage that tragedy
plus time equals comedy. The variable
is the time,” he said. Still, he added:
“You can’t ignore the subject. That’s
what comedy’s all about.”
The Comedy Cellar, a regular stop
for decades for the country’s most notable comedians, was closed from Oct. 28
through Nov. 1, but reopened on Nov.
Comedian Dave Attell
2 after a generator was brought in at a
cost of several thousand dollars. Power
didn’t return until the next day, and the
crowds came with it.
Everyone has a bad case of cabin
fever,” said Valerie Scott, the club’s
manager.
Mecurio said he thought the joke
was on him when he got a call from
the Comedy Cellar saying the club was
going ahead with its show even though
there was no light in the West Village.
He headed downtown from the Upper
East Side, hitting dark streets after midtown.
“It’s pitch dark,” he said. “And there’s
a room packed with people laughing.
It was so surreal. ... I’m calling it the
generator show. It was a really cool
thing.”
“You could feel there was something special about the show,” he said.
“The audiences were tempered in their
mood. You could tell something was up,
something was in the air. I knew it was
cathartic for people.”
He said a woman approached him
after the show to thank him, saying:
“You kind of brightened my day.”
Sometimes, comics used the storm to
get a laugh at the expense of the crowd,
like when Mark Normand looked down
from the Comedy Cellar stage at a man
with a thin beard.
“I like the beard,” he told him. “Is
that because of Sandy? You couldn’t get
your razor working?”
And Attell used Sandy to mock a
heckler, telling him: “You must have
been a load of laughs without power.”
At another point, Attell looked for
positives in the storm.
“There’s nothing better than Doomsday sex,” he said.
Mecurio said he has made a point
of including the storm and the havoc it
caused whenever he takes the stage.
“I feel like as a comedian in the spirit
of social satire, it’s what we’re supposed
to do,” he said. “It’s the elephant in the
room. How do you not do it?”

more?
A: I do go back. I am
involved in a lot of mission
work in Cuba. The nonprofit organization I work with
— La Voz de la Esperanza
— has a license from the
U.S. government to go there.
I’ve developed a passion for
the people of Cuba. For 20
years, I couldn’t go back.
Q: Your music seems
intertwined with your
faith. Do you use your
concerts as a forum from
which to minister to people?
A: Yes, very much so. My
desire from my concerts is
that people walk away motivated and inspired to use
their God-given talents to
serve God and humanity.
I have had people through
the years who have told me
... the power of the music and
the message and my words
of testimony have made a
huge impact in their lives.
There’s a certain satisfac-
tion that comes with seeing
that what you’ve done and
what you’ve invested your
life in has a positive impact
on other people’s lives.
Q: Where did you play
your first international
show?
A: It was in 1993 in Melbourne, Australia. It was
a n o t h e r c u l t u re s h o c k
because Aussies have a different accent and a different
demeanor — not to mention
kangaroos and koalas, which
I’d never seen before.
I quickly found out in
Australia — and later in
Europe, where I’ve spent
a lot of time performing
— that music is something
that brings us all together.
Even if I was in Germany or
Russia, I didn’t have to speak
the language to connect with
people. As soon as I started
playing my violin, everyone
knew what the music was
saying. That just blew my
mind.
Q: Is music’s ability to
transcend cultural and
language barriers especially true of classical
music?
A: Certainly. In other
parts of the world, where
people are not that acclimated or accustomed to it,
the effect it has on people is
absolutely incredible. They
sit there spell-bound. It
does something for them. I
think it expands their minds
[because] classical music is
so large in its composition.
Q: How does the ministering and sharing of your
story work its way into
your performances?
A: Oftentimes, I find the
best way to do that is to talk
and share things that make
me come across as a human
being, just like the people
sitting there. It’s a way to
earn people’s trust.
Music is one of the most
powerful ways to communicate and affect people, and I
take that very seriously. My
desire for every concert is
that, if something happens
after the concert that I could
never play music again, I
could look back and think
that that was the best concert I could have done.

There’s nothing like a political sex scandal to get Washington buzzing. While pundits
debated the future of CIA
Director David Petraeus, few
concerned themselves with
the fate of Paula Broadwell.
No surprise there. Powerful men can bounce back from
even the most lurid affairs, but
the Other Woman rarely survives the firestorm intact. Call
it sexism, bad luck or lousy
PR — these modern Hester
Prynnes live on in Google
forever.
Bill Clinton has never been
more popular; Monica Lewinsky, despite a degree from the
London School of Economics, has never managed to hold
down a job. John Edwards’s
mistress, Rielle Hunter, is even
more despised than the ruined
politician after writing a tellall memoir. Megan Marshack,
the former radio reporter
who was with Nelson Rockfeller the night he died in 1979,
hasn’t worked on-air for more
than 30 years.
A rare exception to the
rule: Donna Rice Hughes,
who rebounded from her liaison with Sen. Gary Hart into
a happy and relatively public
life. “I think it’s harder for the
women,” she told us Sunday.
“They’re not as well known
and get sensationalized.”
Rice Hughes was 29 in 1987
when her brief relationship
with Hart — then the leading Democratic prospect for
the 1988 presidential nomination — exploded into public
view. Within days, her name
and picture were everywhere,
and she remained in the headlines for the next 18 months.
“It took on a life of its own,”
she said.
Now it seems there’s a sex
scandal every few months;
back then, there was no role
model, no map of how to
navigate a storm like this. Rice
Hughes lost her commercial
acting and pharmaceutical
jobs. “I knew I wanted to
Roberts
county mayor in Marion,
so we met with them, and
they have provided 180 to
200 jobs ever since.
For many long years, residents of our neighbor counties have come here to work.
Due to their ownership of
most of the available land
for new companies, you will
see more Chattanoogans
driving to work at companies in other counties
Another reason to work
regionally is that Chattanooga can use the sewage
treatment business of the
smaller counties. Few things
are more expensive to build
than sewage treatment
plants. If memory serves me
correctly, the last expansion
of our facility was a $90 million investment.
The biggest surprise to
me when I accepted chairmanship of the SETDD was
the quality of leadership
and the commitment to the
people of those who served
take the high road,” she said.
“I prayed continually that I
would make wise choices and
tried to take the long view. I
really wanted the pain to count
for something good.”
That meant not exploiting the situation for money
(she passed on millions from
Playboy and others), taking personal responsibility
for her role in the affair, and
asking for forgiveness from
her family, friends and God.
A “devastated” Rice Hughes
went underground for seven
years in which she renewed
her Christian faith, married,
moved to Washington and
looked for a job.
“People told me I’d never
been taken seriously,” she said.
But she was hired by the antipornography group Enough
Is Enough, where she’s now
president and an acknowledged expert on Internet
safety issues — she frequently
testifies before Congress and
has produced a film series on
the subject.
While Rice Hughes has
thrived professionally, other
upbeat endings for the Other
Woman usually involved marriage. Argentine beauty Maria
Belen Chapur is now engaged
to former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, despite
the fact their affair effectively
ended his political career.
And remember Suzy Wetlaufer? The former Harvard
Business Review editor had
an affair with departing GE
head Jack Welch while writing a profile of him — and lost
her job, but went on to marry
and co-author books with the
multimillionaire corporate
executive.
And Broadwell? The ambitious first-time author is married with two small sons. She
and her doctor husband celebrated her 40th birthday in
Washington, Va.
But a party for friends was
canceled; she disabled her
Facebook account just hours
before the affair went public
Friday and has given no interviews ... yet.
with me. It was a genuine
joy to work with them. Our
board meetings were lively
with swarms of good ideas.
When a dozen people
elected to do the same job
get together, you can expect
ideas to proliferate that way.
Nothing is more important to good government
than good ideas. I once told
someone, “My only addiction
is to ideas.” I am convinced
that the way an elected person gathers, processes and
prioritizes ideas determines
the quality of their leadership and their success.

he discovered acting through
a class at the Mountain Arts
Community Center. After
years of play-acting in amateur videos he made with
his friends and putting on
impromptu home-theater
shows for his parents, taking
that energy to the stage was
only natural.
“I don’t really get nervous
in front of an audience,” Garrison said. “I get excited to
show people who I am and
how I can act and for them
to enjoy a performance I’m
putting on.”
During his first performance as The White King
in “Wonderland,” Garrison
was a fifth-grader at Nolan
Elementary School. The show
was presented by Skwalking
Heads Production Company,
whose director, Colleen Lalib-

erte, recommended that Garrison audition for Center for
Creative Arts. He was accepted this fall as a sixth-grader
with an acting major and a
musical-theater minor.
While working on another
production last fall with Laliberte, Garrison wandered into
the prop room and discovered a collection of puppets
left over from shows designed
by local theater impresario
diately.
“With puppeteering, you
are admired for your skill,” he
said. “I feel proud that I can
be one of the puppeteers.
“The main thing is thinking about the puppet’s characteristics and putting it in
your performance. It was fun
working with others to make
one character come alive.”
Garrison also has been
cast in a reprisal of “The Blue
Bird,” a play Arnold adapted
from a 1908 stage work by
Belgian playwright Maurice
Maeterlinck. He will take on
about five roles in the show,
which starts Friday and features a cast of a dozen puppeteers controlling about 50
puppets.
Laliberte said that, while
Garrison’s curiosity might
have been the bane of his
household during his early
years, it is a great benefit to
directors. Figuring out how a
production functions — much
like a machine — is key to
helping it become more effi-
cient, Laliberte said.
“I could definitely see him
inventing something someday,” she said. “I think he’ll
take my puppets and make
them better. He’s a great asset.
I don’t want him to grow up
and go away.”

Puppeteer
Fred Arnold.
When he held the Sea
Witch, a puppet Arnold built
for his adaptation of Hans
Christian Andersen’s “The
Little Mermaid,” his curiosity
immediately was piqued.
“She’s still my favorite
one,” he said. “I was thinking
it would be so cool to be able
to hold her and be in a puppet
play. I liked how they looked
and the attention I would get
for being a good puppeteer.”
Earlier this year, he got
his chance when Laliberte, a
veteran puppeteer, debuted a
new play, “Beastie’s Birthday
Party,” which she created in
collaboration with Arnold.
Garrison was in charge of
directing the movements of
the head of the title character, a massive puppet moved
through the coordinated
efforts of several actors.
Learning to manipulate
inanimate objects and give
them life through subtle
movements is something Garrison said he enjoyed imme-
