Oktibbeha County School
District and Starkville School
District ofcials have approved
separate operating budgets for
the 2014-2015 school year that,
on paper, constitute $65.69 mil-
lion in combined expenses.
OCSD Conservator Margie
Pulley approved the school sys-
tems budget Monday in a brief
meeting the conservator has
full legislative authority for the
district since it is under state
control while SSD trustees
unanimously OKd the item
with little discussion the next
day.
Both the city and county
held budget hearings on their
upcoming Fiscal Year 2014-
2015 projections earlier in the
month that drew little public
participation.
SSD will operate on a 65.24-
mill tax levy for the upcoming
scal year, while OCSD will
utilize 55 mills, budgetary pro-
posals from both districts state.
The city school districts
maintenance fund, its primary
operating stream, accounts for
49.97 mills of the entire levy. An
additional mill helps fund Mill-
saps Career and Technology
Center, while the district will
use a combined 14.27 mills to
service bond indebtedness and
limited tax notes.
Documents obtained from
OCSDs Monday meeting do
not clearly state how its county
mill levy is divided for expens-
es. The county district is also in
the process of issuing a small
levy of up to 3 mills to help fund

Michelle Knight says fame
comes with complications
BY MARK GILLISPIE
The Associated Press
CLEVE-
LAND
Mi c h e l l e
Knight has
discovered
that the
fame that
followed her
escape from
Ariel Cas-
tros house of horrors cuts
both ways.
There has been some
obvious good. The girl who
grew up without a tooth-
brush and spent nearly 11
years in captivity can pro-
vide for herself. She has
her own apartment. Her
book, Finding Me, spent
ve weeks on the New York
Times Bestsellers List. She
and the other two women
kidnapped by Castro split
$1.4 million in donations
collected after their escape.
Phil McGraw of Dr. Phil
television fame present-
ed Knight with an over-
sized check for more than
$400,000 from his founda-
tion.
In a recent interview
with the Associated Press,
Knight said she is ready to
assume a normal life and,
with it, a new name and
identity Lily Rose Lee.
Im not a celebrity, said
Knight, 33. I dont want to
be. I want to be me.
Fame has brought some
frustrations. Knight be-
comes frightened when
crowds sometimes gather
around her as she walks
alone. She nds it annoy-
ing when people snap cell-
phone photos without ask-
ing.
And people from her dis-
tant past have reappeared,
feigning friendship but ulti-
mately seeking money, she
said.
You have to be careful
every day because of the
book and the money and
the it factor of who you
are, she said. Theyre
not coming at me to be my
friend. They want what I
have.
Knight was 21 when Cas-
tro lured her to his home in
August 2002. Amanda Ber-
ry was abducted in April
2003 just a day shy of her
17th birthday, and Gina
DeJesus was 14 when he
kidnapped her a year later.
The women escaped
from Castros home on
May 6, 2013. Castro took
a plea deal to avoid a po-
tential death sentence and
received life in prison plus
1,000 years. Knight said he
violently aborted ve of her
pregnancies by kicking,
punching and stomping
on her abdomen after im-
pregnating her. He ended
up hanging himself in his
prison cell a month after
sentencing.

In this June 18 photo, Rod Williams, a Purdue University associate professor of herpetology, holds a hellbender
that he and a team of students collected in southern Indianas Blue River near Corydon, Ind., during a survey
of populations of the rare amphibian. Hellbenders, an aquatic animal thats North Americas largest salaman-
der, are endangered in Indiana and four other states and face habitat loss and other pressures in the 11 other
mostly Eastern states where they live in swift-owing, rocky rivers and streams.
BY RICK CALLAHAN
The Associated Press
CORYDON, Ind.
With a long, slimy body
and beady eyes, North
Americas largest sala-
mander wouldnt top any
cutest animal lists. The
hellbenders alien ap-
pearance and mysterious
ways have earned the big
amphibian a bad reputa-
tion and unattering nick-
names ranging from snot
otter to devil dog.
But hellbenders,
which can grow two or
more feet long, are fac-
ing troubles bigger than
an image problem. The
aquatic creatures found
only in swift-owing,
rocky rivers and streams
are disappearing from
large parts of the 16 states
they inhabit.
The rare amphibians
breathe almost entirely
through their skin, mak-
ing them a living barom-
eter of water quality be-
cause of their sensitivity
to silt and pollution, said
Rod Williams, a Purdue
University associate pro-
fessor of herpetology
whos tracked Indianas
hellbenders for nearly a
decade.
These are animals
that live up to 30 years in
the wild, so if you have
populations declining,
that alerts us that there
could be a problem with
the water quality, he
said.
The U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service is con-
ducting an assessment of
the eastern hellbender
one of two subspecies
to determine if it should
be added to the federal
endangered species list.
The other subspecies, the
Ozark hellbender, found
only in Missouri and Ar-
kansas, was declared en-
dangered in 2011 after a
75 percent decline.
Such a designation
could free up federal mon-
ey to protect their habitat
and aid in their recovery.
Hellbenders the
origin of the name isnt
known have been pres-
ent on this continent for
at least 10 million years
and are found in hill-coun-
ty rivers and streams in
the area stretching from
New York to Missouri to
North Carolina.
Theres nothing else
like them in North Amer-
ica, said federal biologist
Jeromy Applegate, whos
leading the eastern hell-
bender assessment.
The wrinkly green and
brown animals have a
protective slimy coating
and a attened head to
help them slide between
rocks, a rudder-like tail
to propel them through
currents and stubby legs
and ngers for gripping
rocks.
Scientists arent cer-
tain why the salamanders
are disappearing. But
dams have tamed some of
the fast currents they pre-
fer while sediment runoff
from development has
lled up the rocky nooks
and crannies young hell-
benders use for shelter.
A fungus blamed for am-
phibian declines world-
wide may also be a factor.
Researchers are urg-
ing landowners to plant
trees and grasses along
rivers to improve the wa-
ter quality. Theyre also
raising young hellbend-
ers to be released into the
wild to bolster the popula-
tion.
The St. Louis Zoo, in
collaboration with the
Missouri Department of
Conservation, is raising
about 3,000 young Ozark
hellbenders from eggs.
Thats more than twice
the 1,200 Ozark hellbend-
ers believed to still exist
in the wild, said Trisha
Crabill, a biologist with
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.
It buys us time to g-
ure out and address the
threats, she said.
In Indiana, hellbend-
ers once inhabited rivers
and streams across much
of the states southern
half but are now found
only in the Blue River ba-
sin in heavily forested hill
country along the Ohio
River.
Recently, Rod Wil-
liams, the Purdue sci-
entist who surveys hell-
benders, and his students
fanned out across the
Blue River near the town
of Corydon to look for
the nocturnal creatures,
which hide out during
daytime beneath large at
stones.
Six hours passed be-
fore they hit pay-dirt
a feisty 21-inch-long,
1 1/4-pound hellbend-
er that contorted and
opened its mouth repeat-
edly as it struggled to
escape. Two team mem-
bers took a blood sample
and collected some of its
slimy coating the trait
that earned hellbenders
the nickname snot otter
before inserting a mi-
crochip beneath its skin
for future monitoring.
Williams surveys
have found adult hell-
benders but no juveniles
the same worrisome
trend seen in several oth-
er states.
Even in a few areas
where hellbenders num-
bers appear to be stable,
some locals wrongly be-
lieve they are poisonous
or feed on young trout,
when in fact craysh ac-
count for almost all of the
hellbenders diet. Anglers
sometimes kill them on
sight.
Wildlife ofcials are
trying to educate the pub-
lic about the harmless
creatures.
If nothing else, if peo-
ple dont appreciate the
animal for itself, that it
has value to the world,
then it can serve as a
messenger, Crabill said.
It can tell us whats going
on in the river.

AROUND THE STATE
AROUND THE WORLD
BY PETER ENAV
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM The Is-
raeli military said it downed
a drone on Monday along
the countrys southern
coastline, the rst time it
encountered an unmanned
aircraft since the campaign
against Gaza Strip militants
began last week.
The drone was launched
from Gaza and was shot
down near the southern
city of Ashdod, the mili-
tary said. Hamas claimed
it launched several drones
Monday at Israel, without
immediately providing de-
tails on their missions.
Since the latest bout of
ghting began last Tues-
day, militants have red
nearly 1,000 rockets at Is-
rael, causing some injuries
and damage to property,
but no fatalities among
Israelis. By contrast, 172
Palestinians have died as a
result of Israels air attacks.
But the use of drones
with an offensive capacity
could potentially inict sig-
nicant casualties some-
thing the rockets from
Gaza have failed to do,
largely because of the suc-
cess of the militarys Iron
Dome air defense system
in shooting them down.
Hamas is trying ev-
erything it can to produce
some kind of achievement
and it is crucial that we
maintain our high state of
readiness, Israeli Defense
Minister Moshe Yaalon
said. The shooting down
of a drone this morning by
our air defense system is
an example of their efforts
to strike at us in any way
possible.
Israel began airstrikes
Tuesday against militants
in the Hamas-controlled
Gaza Strip in what it says
was a response to heavy
rocket re out of the
densely populated terri-
tory. The military says it
has launched more than
1,300 airstrikes since then,
while Palestinian militants
have launched nearly 1,000
rockets at Israel.
The Palestinian Health
Ministry in Gaza says 172
people have been killed, in-
cluding dozens of civilians.
There have been no Israeli
fatalities, though several
people have been wound-
ed, including a teenage boy
who was seriously injured
by rocket shrapnel on Sun-
day.
The military said Mon-
days drone was launched
from Gaza and was shot
down in mid-ight by a Pa-
triot surface-to-air missile
in mid-ight near Ashdod.
Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu said
Sunday that the current
Israeli operation could last
for a long time and that
the military was prepared
for all possibilities. That
includes a wide-ranging
Gaza ground operation,
which would likely cause
heavy casualties in the
coastal strip.
But Netanyahu is com-
ing under increasing in-
ternational pressure to
end the operation soon.
On Sunday, U.N. Secre-
tary-General Ban Ki-moon
called for an immediate
cease-re while U.S. Sec-
retary of State John Kerry
voiced American readi-
ness to help restore calm.
Egypt, a key mediator be-
tween Israel and Hamas,
continued to work behind
the scenes to stop the con-
ict.

HORONOBE, Japan
Reindeer farms and graz-
ing Holstein cows dot a vast
stretch of rolling green pas-
ture here on Japans north-
ern tip. Underground its a
different story.
Workers and scientists
have carved a sprawling
laboratory deep below this
sleep dairy town that, de-
spite government reassur-
ances, some of Horonobes
2,500 residents fear could
turn their neighborhood
into a nuclear waste stor-
age site.
Im worried, said
54-year-old reindeer han-
dler Atsushi Arase. If the
government already has
its eye on us as a potential
site, it may eventually come
here even if we refuse.
Japanese utilities have
more than 17,000 tons of
spent fuel rods that have
nished their useful life but
will remain dangerously
radioactive for thousands
of years. What to do with
them is a vexing problem
that nuclear-powered na-
tions around the world
face, and that has come to
the fore as Japan debates
whether to keep using nu-
clear energy after the 2011
disaster at Tokyo Electric
Power Co.s Fukushima
plant.
The answer to that
problem may lie in the
Horonobe Underground
Research Center, which
has been collecting geo-
logical data to determine if
and how radioactive waste
can be stored safely for as
long as 100,000 years in a
country that is susceptible
to volcanic activity, earth-
quakes and shifting under-
ground water ows.
Several journalists
donned hard hats recent-
ly and crammed in small
groups into a cage-like
mesh elevator for a 350-me-
ter (1,150-foot) descent to
reach the laboratory.
They emerged in a
760-meter-long (2,500-feet-
long) tunnel cut in the
shape of a gure 8, its bare
wall showing 3 million-
year-old sedimentary lay-
ers. Dripping water formed
puddles on the ground.
Dozens of cables and gaug-
es connected to biscuit-size
holes in the wall were ana-
lyzing the composition and
movement of groundwater
and other data around the
clock.
In return for hosting
the research, which un-
der an agreement with
the Japan Atomic Energy
Agency doesnt involve any
radioactivity, Horonobe
has received about 1 bil-
lion yen ($10 million) in
government subsidies and
tunnel-related public works
projects since 2000, accord-
ing to town statistics.
Ofcially, this is only a
test.

whose friends is in the pri-
vately owned prison, Cor-
rections spokeswoman
Grace Fisher said Sunday.
Warnsley accused of
trying to smuggle knives
and other forbidden items
in 11 footballs, and was
arrested about 25 minutes
before the ghts broke
out, Walnut Grove Police
Chief Kevin Polk told The
Clarion-Ledger.
Fisher did not respond
directly to a query about
whether investigators
have learned how inmates
learned so quickly that
contraband had been in-
tercepted.
We have not released
more because we are still
trying to sort out facts
from allegations, she
wrote in an email.
Polk said the footballs
held, among other things,
29 cellphones, cellphone
chargers, headphones,
paring knives, cigars, ra-
zors, and six bags of mar-
ijuana totaling more than 4
ounces.
It was like a conve-
nience store, Polk said.
Warnsley said he was
on his way from work at
the Nissan plant to pick
up a cousin at the Peco
chicken plant, but stopped
in the prison parking lot
because of car problems
and was pacing back and
forth while trying to call
a mechanic about 8 p.m.
Thursday.
A bystander called po-
lice told them they saw
a bag out there and they
think I had something
to do with it, Warnsley
said in a telephone inter-
view with The Associated
Press.
While pacing, Warnsley
said, he saw a big open
plastic bag with a tape-
wrapped football and a
green-and-white cigarette
pack at the top. It was not
his and he never got closer
than 8 feet to it, he said.
Asked if he had a friend
in the prison, Warnsley
said, I am from this area.
I have relatives who work
there and I have friends
and relatives who are in-
carcerated. I dont know
who-all is incarcerated,
but Im sure theres some-
one I know in there. The
prison is like 15 minutes
from my house.

POSSUMHAW
Sam asked if I
wanted to go on
vacation anytime
soon, and I said
that Id rather wait
til fall when things
cool off; besides,
its hard to imagine
any place better
than this recre-
ational paradise I
live in.
AAAs maga-
zine Southern
Traveler, in a
feature called Best of the
South 2014, lists the best
places to see in the South and
Columbus is one of them. I
have to agree because I wake
up where A quality of light, a
quality of life: its a sunsation-
al summer in Columbus, Mis-
sissippi. So theres no need to
leave home.
Enjoying our
recreational lake, I
decided to collect
duck eggs from the
platform since no
duck was sitting
on them. Removal
would decrease
the chance of
attracting preda-
tors. Rather than
use the kayak, I
walked into the
lake. Immediately
my feet slipped out from under
me, and I went down to the
bottom. The ducks swam all
around me, splashing and
waving their wings, and I
believe they were laughing.
Swimming with ducks was
exhilarating.
A gang of hoodlum rac-
coons attacked the bird
feeders and slung one into the
lake. Sam found it and hand-
ed it off to me while he went
about restoring the feeding
station. I found a sh inside
the bird feeder, and thats not
something you see every day.
Ive since trapped a couple of
raccoons and a possum. Every
morning I cant wait to see if
Ive had any success; as the
AAA article said, hunting
and shing are superb.
Shirley, my walking
partner, and I had the good
fortune of being offered the
use of a swimming pool for the
summer. Instead of pounding
the pavement in the drenching
heat and feeling wiped out
after a couple of miles, we
start the day with swimming
exercises. Exercising with a
morning cup of coffee poolside
is my idea of more paradise.
Start with sweet tea [or
coffee], perfectly delicious for
summer sipping, the article
said.
Things to do included shop-
ping boutiques, antiques ...
Ive been shopping Dirt Cheap
for swimming suits. If the
suit is remotely modest and it
ts I buy it! Besides, I plan to
continue swimming activities
as part of the Life Enrichment
Program offered by The W,
whose campus was described
in the AAA article: Summer
mornings, the sun lters
through the trees, suffusing
the campus of Mississippi
University for Women, the na-
tions rst publicly supported
college for women.
One morning, Sam waved
goodbye as he headed off for
a day of shing on the scenic
Tennessee-Tombigbee Wa-
terway and possibly Tibbee
Creek. He hollered back,
Theyre some tomatoes hang-
ing on the gate. From Nick
Hairston, no doubt. If one
lacks neighborhood tomato
delivery the article suggested
trying luscious fresh nds at
the Farmers Market.
Columbus has concerts, the
Riverwalk and the gorgeously
restored Tombigbee Bridge,
for everyone to enjoy.
In short, Columbus is pic-
ture-perfect in the summer ...
So I cant leave now, I might
miss something.
Shannon Bardwells column
appears in The Dispatch on
Mondays. Email reaches her at
msdeltachild@msn.com.
Jerusalem used to be
safe. It is nearly 40 miles
from Gaza and 3,000 feet
above sea level. In the last
go-round, the Hamas rock-
ets couldnt reach that far.
Now they can. Rockets were
red aimed at both Jerusa-
lem and Tel Aviv this week,
as Israel launched its own
offensive in Gaza. Every
Israeli is a target, a Hamas
spokesman was quoted in
the press.
How do they live like this,
a friend asks, after speaking with colleagues in Israel.
The Israelis were calmer than me, my friend tells me.
Theyre used to it. But what a thing to be used to.
There is, I suppose, a positive side to the state
of uncertainty that is life in Israel. In his stunning
book, My Promised Land, Ari Shavit writes about
the Israeli character, the intensity, the passion, the
full engagement with life, the entrepreneurial spirit
and willingness to take economic risks, all no doubt
shaped by the reality of living in a land where every
Israeli is a target. It is no accident that Israel is a
center for startups.
But as Israel calls up some 40,000 reservists, I
cannot help but identify with the 40,000 mothers
saying goodbye to their soldier sons and daughters,
understanding that when survival is at stake, every-
one serves. This is part of life, my Israeli friends tell
me. I know.
The experts say that eventually, the parties will
agree to a cease-re, after both sides have met the
political demands to take action. Between now and
then, there will be deaths and injuries. Mothers on
both sides will bury their children, which should not
be. And then what? Peace? No.
Just back to normal, back to one or two rockets a
week, the usual in south Israel.
Until then, children are being sent to live with rela-
tives in safer (no place is totally safe) parts of Israel.
We just want to live in peace and quiet, one mother,
who had sent her children away, told a reporter. I
hope the day will come. If not in a peaceful or political
situation, then the army will have to help us.
The army will have to help us. Can the army
keep every child safe? Can the army keep every
soldier safe? If you are under attack by those who do
not value human life as we do, how can there be peace
and quiet. If religious leaders can convince gullible,
vulnerable young men and women that the best thing
they can do with their lives is to die, killing Jews in
the process, then how can there be peace and quiet?
Politics is the art of compromise. How do you
compromise with those who see themselves pursuing
a religious mission to kill you? That is not what Islam
dictates, not as it has been understood, but it is how it
is understood by the radicals who are determined to
destroy Israel.
I read some of the comments posted in response
to the story of the brutal killing of the three Israeli
teenagers. The comments were as frightening as the
story. People spewing hate against Israel, the aggres-
sor, the occupier, and saying we Americans should let
them go it alone, not waste our dollars or our hearts.
And when accused of anti-Semitism, they always say
its not about Jews, its about Israel.
I have bad news for the Israel-haters. The same
people who hate Israel also hate Jews and Americans,
wherever we live, hate our traditions of equality and
freedom, hate those who would allow women to be
educated and to have control of their lives and bodies.
It is not only Israel that is threatened by extremism,
even if the bombs are not falling here. And it is not
only Israel that must ght back.

Bombs on Jerusalem
Just another day in paradise

LOCAL VOICES
A late-developing
plan to put the police
department into the
Cadence Bank build-
ing seems to be a fait
accompli.
Not only has this
train left the station,
its so far down the
line, it is almost out of
sight. And most likely
it wont be stalled no
matter what counter-
proposals might be
offered, but I cant
help myself. I have to stand on the
track and wave a red ag.
Interested Starkville voters
should do likewise by coming to
the board meeting on Tuesday.
It may be the only chance you
get to hear about and voice your
thoughts on this project before
the board of aldermen make it a
reality.
Im waiting to hear the rst
good reason why we should do
this; there are plenty of reasons
why we shouldnt.
First question: What does this
do to the tax rolls? Answer: It con-
verts an income-producing corner
of scarce commercial property on
downtown Main Street to a non-in-
come producing piece of public
property.
The long-range plan for the po-
lice department projected a need
for approximately 24,000 square
feet to accommodate future
growth. The Cadence building,
according to the gures available,
is 39,000 square feet. The reason
two of the previous proposals for a
police complex supposedly failed
was because it was a Taj Mahal
version, overkill. I would say an
extra 15,000 square feet of space
would be that and more.
Speculation has it the court-
room planned for the new city hall
may go in the extra
space and school dis-
trict ofces will go to
the bottom oor of the
new city hall. I am not
sure how that makes
sense other than the
school district might
pay some rent, but
there is no way that
rent will carry the debt
service on the bank
and needed improve-
ments.
The Brinkley-Ser-
geant report recommending a
new police facility listed needed
features such as locker rooms and
showers, conference rooms, com-
mand center, additional space for
the dispatch area, evidence room,
armory, prisoner drop off and, of
course, updated administrative
ofces.
I have been in the Cadence
building a number of times for
personal reasons. Other than
ofces and conference rooms, I
cant say any of the other exists.
Expect costly renovations.
Rule of thumb: Retrotting is
2/3 the cost of new construction.
Even at 1/3 that cost it would be in
the neighborhood of $75-plus per
square foot. That is over $2.5 mil-
lion alone in renovation. Now you
have reached the magic number
of a $5 million building. How do
we pay for it? More importantly,
do we need it? I may be able to get
a sweet deal on a Ferrari but that
doesnt mean I need one, or that
its a good idea.
Granted those same renova-
tions will be needed in the current
city hall, but we already own that
building. We wont have to shell
out 2.5 million or better to pur-
chase and renovate it. Even if the
Cadence building was free, do we
want a multiple-use building there
on Main Street? Better the space
be used to showcase a business.
If the building was to be a city
hall housing all our city functions,
this would, without question, be a
worthwhile notion. But thats not
the case.
The difculty of ingress and
egress for emergency vehicles is
easy to see. The exit onto North
Jackson is treacherous and the
entrance/exit off Main has a high
trafc volume located very close
to the light signal that also has to
contend with bus and Main Street
trafc ow.
Chief Nichols has added out-
lying sub-stations to his policing
strategy. This is an excellent use
of police personnel, but it begs
the question, why the need for
more administrative ofce space
instead of less? With sophisticat-
ed computers in the police cars,
ofce space becomes even less
needed.
Seldom-mentioned, but an
important consideration, is the
increased utility and insurance
costs a larger building will
require. These added expenses
are ongoing. Call me crazy, but
I would rather have more and
better paid police in state-ofthe-
art computer-equipped cars than
more bricks and mortar.
The current city hall is a
landmark building. A little TLC
will make it something we can be
proud of.
The entity best served by this
deal is Cadence Bank, which
will unload a building it no
longer needs on the taxpayers of
Starkville.

cial airline pilot, elected ofcial

CHICAGO Unex-
plained rash? Check your
iPad. It turns out the pop-
ular tablet computer may
contain nickel, one of the
most common allergy-in-
ducing metals.
Recent reports in med-
ical journals detail nickel
allergies from a variety of
personal electronic devic-
es, including laptops and
cellphones. But it was an
Apple iPad that caused
an itchy body rash in an
11-year-old boy recently
treated at a San Diego
hospital, according to a
report in Mondays Pedi-
atrics.
Nickel rashes arent
life-threatening but they
can be very uncomfort-
able, and they may re-
quire treatment with ste-
roids and antibiotics if the
skin eruptions become
infected, said Dr. Sharon
Jacob, a dermatologist at
Rady Childrens Hospital,
where the boy was treat-
ed. Jacob, who co-wrote
the report, said the young
patient had to miss school
because of the rash.

CHICAGO Peering
through the chain link
of a holding pen at the
Cook County Jail, a man
wrapped in a navy varsity
jacket leans toward clinical
social worker Elli Petac-
que Montgomery, his
bulging eyes a clue that
somethings not right.
They say I got bipolar,
thats all, he says.
OK, are you taking
your meds? she asks.
When I can get them,
he answers.
Im down here every
day, Montgomery says.
Every morning I hear
this.
The Chicago jail and
many of its 3,300 counter-
parts across the country
have become treatment
centers of last resort for
people with serious men-
tal illnesses, most arrest-
ed for non-violent crimes.
And like other jails, it is
awash in a tide of booking
and releases that make it
particularly unsuited for
the task.
U.S. jails, most of whose
731,000 inmates are trying
to make bail or awaiting
trial, hold roughly half the
number in prisons. But last
year, jails booked in 11.7
million people 19 times
the number of new prison
inmates. The revolving
door complicates the task
of screening for mental
illness, managing medica-
tions, providing care and
ensuring inmate safety.
Jails are churning peo-
ple, says Henry J. Stead-
man, a consultant to gov-
ernment agencies on how
courts and correctional
facilities deal with people
with mental illnesses.
Experts have pointed to
rising numbers of inmates
with mental illnesses since
the 1970s, after states be-
gan closing psychiatric
hospitals without follow-
ing through on promises
to create and sustain com-
prehensive community
treatment programs.
But as the number of
those with serious mental
illnesses surpasses 20 per-
cent in some jails, many
have struggled to keep
up, sometimes putting in-
mates in jeopardy.
The Associated Press
has reported that at least
nine of the 11 suicides in
New York City jails over
the past ve years came
after operators failed to fol-
low safeguards designed
to prevent self-harm by
inmates. The APs inves-
tigation into the deaths of
two mentally ill inmates
at the citys Rikers Island
complex one who es-
sentially baked to death
in a 101-degree cell in Feb-
ruary and the other who
sexually mutilated himself
last fall have prompted
promises of reform.
Federal law protects the
rights of people in jails and
other institutions. But in
temporary holding facili-
ties, dealing with serious,
long-term mental illnesses
requires operators to re-
think what they do, Cook
County Sheriff Thomas J.
Dart says.
Youre given a court
order by a judge to hold
this person in the jail un-
til youre told not to, Dart
says. Youre not supposed
to do anything other than
feed him, give them a bed,
make sure they dont harm
anyone else or themselves.
... Youre not in there try-
ing to cure people.
Many jails are dealing
with similar dynamics,
with sometimes disturb-
ing results.
n In June, federal of-
cials cited deplorable
conditions for mentally ill
inmates in the Los Ange-
les County jails as partly
to blame for 15 suicides in
30 months. The L.A. sys-
tem, the countrys largest
with 19,000 inmates, has
been under federal super-
vision since 2002, but still
fails to adequately super-
vise inmates with clearly
demonstrated needs, the
Justice Department con-
cluded.
n In Pensacola, Flor-
ida, Justice ofcials last
year issued a scathing
report about conditions at
the Escambia County Jail.
Records showed many
inmates who requested
care were never seen by a
mental health profession-
al. When inmates refused
to take medications, the
jail merely removed them
from its list of those with a
mental illness.
n In Columbus, Ne-
braska seat of a coun-
ty of 33,000 six Platte
County Detention Center
inmates attempted suicide
early this year, as many as
in the previous 10 years
combined. Jon Zavadil,
the recently retired sher-
iff, says about 80 percent
of all inmates medicated
for some type of mental
illness.
Every county jail in the
state has the same prob-
lem, says Zavadil, who
blames Nebraska lawmak-
ers for voting to close two
of the states three public
psychiatric hospitals over
the past decade.
Researchers long
warned mental illness was
being criminalized, as
police arrested more peo-
ple for low-level offenses.

ner-up in 2012.
Im just so excited and
thankful for this opportu-
nity right now, Murray
said moments after be-
ing crowned. Its such
an honor to represent my
state, and its a privilege.
I look forward to promot-
ing my platform, 13 Go-
ing on 30: Teaching Girls
to Embrace Their Age
on a bigger scale.
Finishing in the Top
Five Saturday night
along with Murray were:
First runner-up:
Miss Mississippi State
University Laura Lee
Lewis
Second runner-up:
Miss Historic South Ran-
di-Kathryn Harmon
Third runner-up:
Miss Deep South Caro-
line Conerly
Fourth runner-up:
Miss North Central Mis-
sissippi Jessica Terrill
Rounding out the top
10 were Miss Delta Blues
Shelby Corn, Miss Dixie
Carol Coker, Miss Rankin
County Morgan Burnett,
Miss Turtle Creek Jordin
Johnson and Miss Uni-
versity Anna Beth Hig-
ginbotham.
As the fan favorite,
Miss Heart of the South
CeCe Hillman took home
the Mississippi Choice
Award. Harmon won the
Quality of Life Scholar-
ship.
Outgoing Miss Mis-
sissippi Chelsea Rick had
words of wisdom for her
successor.
My advice to (Mur-
ray) is to just cherish ev-
ery encounter with every
Mississippian because
everyone has something
unique to offer. And its
a blessing just to en-
counter Mississippi in its
truest form along your
travels, and thats what I
enjoyed so much.
The Miss Mississippi
Pageant has been held in
Vicksburg since 1959.
Budget
Continued from Page 1A
internal and city cam-
pus renovations ahead
of 2015s state-mandated
consolidation.
OCSD is projected to
take in $11.27 million from
local, intermediate, state,
federal and 16th section
sources and spend almost
$10 million on instruc-
tion and support services
alone. Debt service will
constitute an additional
$322,212 for the year, and
other requirements drive
the districts total expens-
es to a projected $10.99
million.
Federal and 16th sec-
tion SSD funding streams
are projected to decrease
in the upcoming scal
year, dropping the dis-
tricts total projected rev-
enues to $47.66 million
from last years $48.29
million. In turn, local
funding sources are ex-
pected to yield $19.26 with
the adjusted local millage.
Local and state funding
sources are forecasted to
constitute almost 84 per-
cent of SSDs revenues,
while federal dollars will
make up about 14 percent.
SSDs proposed expen-
ditures increase almost
$7 million for the upcom-
ing scal year after an
physical improvements
levy was approved by the
school board last year.
Debt service will cost
the district $4.05 million,
or an additional $659,937,
in the upcoming scal
year, but the expenditure
only constitutes about 7.5
percent of SSDs projected
expenses. As with OCSD,
instruction and support
services, a combined 68
percent, claim the lions
share of the city school
districts upcoming ex-
penditures.
SSD Superintendent
Lewis Holloway is hopeful
aldermen will allow the
school system to use al-
most $500,000 in over-col-
lected school taxes from
a 1986 bond referendum
to fund repairs to the
Greensboro Center.
A March study by Ten-
nessee-based Structural
Design Group states in-
spectors found advanced
decay associated with
roof trusses above the
Greensboro Centers au-
ditorium; green growth,
mud and other evidence
associated with water l-
tration; and deterioration
associated with the build-
ings faade and masonry.
City ofcials previous-
ly discovered the money
sitting in a bank account
still drawing interest af-
ter the bond was retired
in 2006. Mayor Parker
Wiseman approved a
transfer of those funds to
the school system, but the
city is expected to legally
attempt to take back the
money after Vice Mayor
Roy A. Perkins said the
move was made without
board authorization.
Starkville could legal-
ly take the money and
deposit it into its own
general fund, but alder-
men would be required
by law to lower city taxes
in the same amount
almost 2.5 mills. Further
complicating matters,
Wiseman said, is that
county residents who live
outside Starkville but
within SSDs territory
approved the matter. A
tax break would not ben-
et those residents, and
Wiseman said not using
the money for school im-
provements constitutes a
breach of trust with vot-
ers.
The Greensboro Cen-
ters role after consoli-
dation is not clear and
would be determined by
the school board at a lat-
er date. Holloway hinted
last week at the possibil-
ity of the city providing
the unied school sys-
tem new space inside
Starkvilles new city hall
once it is constructed.
The city is currently ex-
ploring a move that would
purchase Cadence Banks
Jackson Street location for
Starkville Police Depart-
ment use.
Additional space could
be freed within the new
city hall if Starkville Mu-
nicipal Court moves with
SPD to the former bank.
At least one alderman pre-
viously indicated interest
in placing at least one ad-
ditional department with-
in the structure.
OCSDs current ad-
ministrative home, a Main
Street structure built with
Hurricane Katrina relief
money in 2011, could be
retrotted for other gov-
ernmental uses, including
emergency management,
District 2 Supervisor Or-
lando Trainer said last
year.
State law requires the
county to provide space,
furnishings and utilities
for the county school dis-
tricts administration, and
legislation this year says
the county shall continue
providing those services
during and after consoli-
dation.
Soccer

ported their heritage.
Most had no allegiance;
they just needed to get
their nal x of the tour-
nament.
At a table in the bar,
a group of friends from
Mississippi State Univer-
sity were an eclectic mix.
They came from Bra-
zil, Mexico, Cameroon,
Indonesia, El Salvador,
Czech Republic and the
United States.
Starkville native Al-
lison Niffzinger was
in Brazil for the begin-
ning of the tournament.
Niffzinger now resides in
Miami, where she is one
of the leaders of a chapter
of the American Outlaws,
the devout fans of the
U.S. mens team. Aside
from Brazil, no country
bought more tickets for
the month-long tourna-
ment than the U.S. She
saw the U.S. team beat
Ghana in its opening
game in Natal.
It was amazing,
Niffzinger said. Im
denitely going to Rus-
sia (site of 2018 World
Cup).
On her way from
Miami to Starkville,
Niffzinger stopped to
catch a match. I was
at this dive bar in Talla-
hassee that was full of
bikers. They were xed
on the game. I thought,
Soccers made it.
Soccer has certainly
made an impression on
the U.S., and an even
bigger impression on
TV ratings. More than
20 million viewers in the
U.S. were expected to
tune in Sunday.
In Peres Badials
home nation of Brazil,
he said the game is more
of a religion. Brazil may
be in a state of mourning
since its humiliating 7-1
loss to Germany in the
semifinals, but at least
the nation avoided the
ultimate pain their
neighbor and rival Ar-
gentina hoisting the cup.
Brazil can lose, but
Argentina cant win,
Badial said.
Badial got his wish,
courtesy of a fantastic
goal from Germanys
Mario Gtze in 113th
minute. When the goal
went in there were
cheers and groans alike;
it seemed most were hap-
py to see some action.
It could easily be four
years until Starkvilles
Buffalo Wild Wings at-
tracts a crowd for a soc-
cer match, but you never
know. Maybe soccer has
made it in America.
Hall

Road store for the Ala-
bama Street location in
1997, where she became
an assistant manager.
Shes been there ever
since.
They didnt want to
have us both in the same
store being managers,
Hall said, so I trans-
ferred here.
Hall is now an ofce
manager, which in-
volves customer service,
payroll, deposits and the
day-to-day paperwork
that goes with running a
business.
She admits she didnt
foresee still being with
the company for such a
long time.
The Townsends are
very good to work for,
she said. Thats proba-
bly whats kept me here.
Theyre good to their
employees and take care
of them, and I enjoy the
customers.
Hall said she and
other long-time employ-
ees could write a book
about the experiences
theyve had since theyve
been with Sunower. She
was hesitant to elaborate
on some of them, but
said that book would
mostly be about the reg-
ular customers, some of
which had been shopping
at the Alabama Street
store before Hall was on
board.
Theres no secret to
how she usually has a
smile on her face, she
said.
I think enjoying your
job keeps you with a
positive attitude, Hall
said. Working for people
you know and that are
good to you and knowing
that youre appreciated,
that keeps me positive. It
feels like a family here.
When you feel like youre
working for a family, you
want to be your best.
Hall added that she,
like her mother, could
see herself retiring
there.
As long as theyll
have me, Ill be here,
she said. I dont even
think about leaving.

NEW YORK Carmelo Anthony
wanted to be a Knick a few years ago,
and nothing has changed now.
Anthony is staying in New York,
announcing his decision Sunday in a
posting titled My City, My Heart on
his website.
This organization has supported
me and in return, I want
to stay and build here
with this city and my
team, Anthony said.
He explained that he
owed it to himself to ex-
plore all his options as a
free agent, and thanked
the teams he met with
for their interest.
Through it all, my heart never wa-
vered, he wrote.
The Knicks can pay the All-Star
forward nearly $130 million over ve
years, though Anthony said he would
be open to taking less than the maxi-
mum salary if it would help build a win-
ning team and team president Phil
Jackson said Sunday, speaking after
New Yorks summer league practice
in Las Vegas, that Anthony did exactly
that.
He did exactly what we kind of
asked him to do give us a break in
the early part of his contract so that
when we have some wiggle room
next year, which will hopefully be big
enough wiggle room, we can exploit it,
provide a more competitive team for
our group, Jackson said.
Jackson said he and team ofcials
have known longer than indicated An-
thony would sign, but did not want to
say anything until they could crunch
the numbers and get to a gure every-
body agreed upon.
There were some issues about how
to structure all the nancial part of it,
Jackson said. Thats still something

RIO DE JANEIRO
Mario Goetze produced
the piece of individual skill
that Lionel Messi couldnt
muster.
With two quick, deft
touches, Goetze ended
Germanys 24-year wait
for another World Cup title
with an extra-time winner
against Argentina on Sun-
day denying Messi the
one title he needs to for-
ever take his place among
the games all-time greats.
It was the moment of
brilliance that ensured
Germanys 1-0 victory in a
tight and tense nal.
Goetze, who wasnt
born when West Germany
beat Argentina in the 1990
nal, controlled a cross
with his chest in the 113th
minute and in one uid
motion volleyed the ball
past goalkeeper Sergio
Romero and inside the far
post from ve yards out.
It delivered Germany
its fourth World Cup title,
equal second with Italy on
the list of all-time champi-
ons and just behind Bra-
zils ve.
Its an unbelievable
feeling. I dont know how
to describe it. You just
shoot that goal in, you
dont really know whats
happening, Goetze said.

LOUDON, N.H.
Brad Keselowski hopped
out of his car and grabbed
an oversized broom to give
a playful sweep of all the
confetti already collected
around his Ford.
He then truly savored
his victory, snagging a
New England lobster and
raising it in triumph.
Keselowski survived
without a
cut, splinter
or pinch. He
didnt even
fumble his
champi on-
ship crus-
tacean. For
once, his
victory cele-
bration was as perfect as his
performance on the track.
He completed a aw-
less weekend at New
Hampshire Motor Speed-
way and won Sunday un-
der a green-white check-
ered nish. Keselowski
followed up Saturdays
Nationwide Series victory
with his rst Sprint Cup
win at New Hampshire,
dominating in the No. 2
Ford for his third victory
of the season.
The 2012 Sprint Cup
champion is now tied with
Jimmie Johnson for the se-
ries lead in wins.
This was just such a
phenomenal weekend and
these dont happen that of-
ten, he said.
Keselowski had been in
a slump with, of all things,
his Victory Lane fun.
He needed four stitch-
es to close a wound he re-
ceived during his Victory
Lane celebration in the
Sprint Cup race at Ken-
tucky. He tried to open
the bottle of champagne
by hitting it against a po-
dium, and the bottle broke
and cut his hand.
Keselowski dropped the
American ag out of his
No. 22 Ford on Saturday
and it was retrieved by an
ofcial to let the frivolity
continue.

There are plenty of issues to discuss in the
Southeastern Conference.
The league opens its annual media days
four days instead of three now
today in Hoover, Alabama, with
radical change in the college ath-
letic model appearing imminent
and the SEC Network soon to take
the airwaves.
Football will also be on the
agenda. Florida State ended the
SECs seven-year run of national
titles by beating Auburn. Six SEC
teams will be led by new starting
quarterbacks after an exodus that included big
names like Texas A&Ms Johnny Manziel, Ala-
bamas AJ McCarron, and Georgias Aaron Mur-
ray.
SEC Commissioner Mike Slive opens with
his annual address. Auburns Gus Malzahn,
whose Tigers matched the biggest one-season
turnaround in college football during his debut,
will be the rst coach to address the media. The
SEC issued about 1,100 credentials for the event
in suburban Birmingham.
Here are ve things to watch at SEC media
days:
n SLIVE SPEAKS: The ve wealthiest
conferences likely will be granted more deci-
sion-making powers after an August vote by the
NCAA board of directors, including more mon-
ey for athletes. Slive has been an outspoken ad-
vocate of the need for change, and he gures to
talk about that prospect and the SEC Network
again. The SEC Network goes on the air in Au-
gust. Negotiations continue with some cable and
satellite providers.
nTENSION IN THE AIR?: Alabamas Nick
Saban and Arkansas Bret Bielema were part of
a behind-the-scenes offseason push for a new
pre-snap 10-second rule to slow down all these
fast-paced offenses. Auburns Gus Malzahn, Ole
Miss Hugh Freeze and others were outspoken
critics of the rule, which didnt pass. The tem-
po debate led to one of the more memorable
moments at the 2013 media days. When Biele-
ma was told Malzahn initially thought concerns
about no-huddle offenses leading to more de-
fensive injuries was a joke, the Arkansas coach
wasnt laughing. Hes no comedian, he shot
back. The subject of speed vs. safety might just
come up again.

CHICAGO Chris Johnson can
rest easy during the All-Star break. He
earned a couple days off.
Johnson had three hits, including
his third homer in two days, and the
Atlanta Braves beat the Chicago Cubs
10-7 on Sunday to keep pace with
Washington at the top of the NL East.
Johnson hit a long drive to straight-
away center eld for a three-run shot
in a four-run third inning against Tra-
vis Wood (7-8). Johnson also went deep
twice in the Braves 11-6 victory at
Wrigley Field on Saturday.
The biggest thing for me is the
fact Im swinging at strikes, he said.
When I swing at strikes, I can do
some good things.
Atlanta (52-43) has won three of
four since a four-game losing streak.
It heads into the break one percentage
point behind the division-leading Na-
tionals, who won 10-3 at Philadelphia.
We had a pretty good rst half, bet-
ter than pretty good, manager Fredi
Gonzalez said. Now weve got to enjoy
this break and come out in the second
half and keep ring.
The last-place Cubs (40-54) have
lost eight of 10. Arismendy Alcantara
and Chris Coghlan each hit a two-run
homer off All-Star Julio Teheran (9-6).
It was the rst career shot for the
22-year-old Alcantara, who also had a
bloop double in the rst and is batting
.391 (9-for-23) in his rst ve major
league games.
With my ability, Im having fun,
Alcantara said. It can be fast. Im hav-
ing fun.
Chicago scored three times in the
eighth, highlighted by John Bakers
two-run double, but Jordan Walden got
Junior Lake to y out to center with a
runner on second for the nal out of
the inning.
All-Star Craig Kimbrel worked the
ninth for his 29th save in 33 chances.

Police: lineman Reed arrested on DUI charge
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Police say Alabama defensive lineman
Jarran Reed was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence
of alcohol.
Tuscaloosa police say Reed was stopped early Sunday after his
car hit another car as both backed out of parking spaces. Police say
Reed drove toward the lots exit before being pulled over.
A police statement says the 21-year-old junior college transfers
blood alcohol level registered .13 percent. The legal limit in Alabama is
.08 percent.
Alabama coach Nick Saban later said in a statement he will deter-
mine the appropriate discipline after evaluating the situation.
Reed practiced with the Crimson Tide in the spring after trans-
ferring from East Mississippi Community College along with fellow
defensive lineman D.J. Pettway. Both will contend for playing time.
It wasnt clear if Reed had an attorney.
NBA
Deng agrees to two-year, $20 million deal with Heat
Free agent forward Luol Deng agreed Sunday to a $20 million, two-
year deal with the Miami Heat, said Herb Rudoy, one of Dengs agents.
The deal includes a player option for the 2015-16 season, Rudoy said.
Deng is entering his 11th NBA season, having spent almost his
entire career with the Chicago Bulls. He appeared in 40 games with the
Cleveland Cavaliers after a trade last season. He fills a need in Miami,
which lost LeBron James last week after the four-time NBA MVP said
he would leave the Heat after four seasons and return to the Cavaliers.
Deng has averaged 16.0 points per game in his career, after being
chosen No. 7 overall from Duke in the 2004 draft.
His contract should be signed early this week.
Pierce coming to Wizards on two-year deal
Paul Pierce turns 37 in October and isnt quite the offensive force
he was when he was leading the Boston Celtics to the championship
seven years ago.
The old man showed last year in Brooklyn he still knows how to
knock down a clutch shot and grind out a playoff series victory, which
made the up-and-coming Washington Wizards eager to add the man
known as The Truth.
Pierce and the Wizards agreed to terms on a two-year deal on
Saturday night, a person with knowledge of the agreement told The
Associated Press. The deal is for the mid-level exception, which is
about $5.3 million for next season, and includes a player option in the
second year of the contract. The person requested anonymity because
the Wizards have not officially announced the signing.
Parsons headed to Mavericks
DALLAS Chandler Parsons is going to the Dallas Mavericks
after the Houston Rockets decided not to match the restricted free
agents three-year offer sheet worth more than $45 million.
Parsons tweeted Sunday after he said he heard from Rockets
General Manager Daryl Morey and owner Leslie Alexander about the
teams decision.
The 6-foot-9 small forward signed the offer sheet early Thursday,
only minutes after the NBAs moratorium on signing free agents ended.
Houston had until Sunday to match.
The 25-year-old Parsons has averaged 14.1 points, 5.2 rebounds
and 4.1 assists while starting 207 of his 213 games in the NBA. He was
a second-round pick out of Florida in the 2011 draft.

Harman edges Johnson to win John Deere Classic
SILVIS, Ill. Brian Harman admitted he felt the pressure.
The 27-year-old, in his third full season on the PGA Tour, hadnt
been in the final twosome in the final round until Sunday. He held the
lead entering the final round of the John Deere Classic, and looked at
the scoreboard after hitting a poor shot into the eighth green.
I saw the guys were playing well, so thats when I felt it, but I was
able to hit three really good shots on No. 9 to birdie, and that kind of got
me going, Harman said.
He kept going all the way to his first victory on the Tour, using three
straight birdies down the stretch to hold off Zach Johnson by one stroke.
Harman had a 5-under 66 in the final round for a 22-under-262
total to earn $846,000 and the last exemption for next weeks British
Open. Johnson had the best round of the day at 7-under 64.
Montgomerie wins U.S. Senior Open in playoff
EDMOND, Okla. Colin Montgomerie is getting used to winning
these big events.
The Scotsman defeated Gene Sauers in a playoff to claim the U.S.
Senior Open title Sunday at Oak Tree National.
Montgomerie failed to win in 71 PGA Tour majors and four Champi-
ons Tour majors until May, when he won the Senior PGA Champion-
ship. Now, he has won two of his past three majors to become just the
fifth golfer to win both the Senior PGA Championship and U.S. Senior
Open in the same year.
The 51-year-old said he has become more patient with age. You
have to play intelligent golf, and I think Ive matured enough to realize
that and play more within myself sometimes, including today to play
away from some pins so you dont make bogies, and you realize that
in major golf, pars are usually good enough, especially in the USGA
events, he said.
Montgomerie reached another milestone by winning his first
professional playoff in nine tries. Most famously, he lost to Ernie Els at
the 1994 U.S. Open and to Steve Elkington in sudden death at the 1995
PGA Championship.
Martin become major champion with a major shot
SOUTHPORT, England This wasnt quite the shot heard round
the world, though Mo Martin did hear it.
Thinking only about the quality of the shot not that it might be the
winning shot in the Ricoh Womens British Open Martin hit a 3-wood
from just under 240 yards on the par-5 18th hole at Royal Birkdale and
watched it bounced along the links toward the flag.
When it was rolling on the ground, I said, Sit! And then I said,
Go! And it looked perfect, so I didnt have anything more to say, Martin
said.
And then came a sound she wont soon forget. I heard it hit the pin
from the fairway, Martin said, the silver trophy at her side. That was a
pretty fun feeling.
The ball rolled against the middle of the flagstick and settled 6 feet
away for an eagle. She didnt realize just how important it was until an
hour later, when Shanshan Feng of China and Inbee Park of South
Korea couldnt stay under par, and then couldnt make birdie over the
two par-5 closing holes to catch her.
Martin closed with an even-par 72 no one broke par in the 25
mph wind Sunday and finished at 1-under 287 for a one-shot victory
over Feng and Suzann Pettersen, whose birdie-birdie finish was too late
to atone for a pair of double bogeys earlier in the round.
Rose wins Scottish Open for back-to-back titles
ABERDEEN, Scotland After capturing his first major title at last
years U.S. Open, Justin Rose took nearly 13 months to return to the
winners circle.
Now hes heading to the British Open seeking a third tournament
victory in three weeks.
Rose turned the final round of the Scottish Open into a procession
on Sunday, calmly shooting a 6-under 65 to win by two strokes and seal
back-to-back successes either side of the Atlantic.
A fortnight ago, the Englishman won the Quicken Loans National at
Congressional in a playoff to finally shrug off that hangover from Merion.
Its uncharted territory for me Ive never won two in a row
before, said Rose, who has banked almost $2 million in prize money
from his two victories.

reason to celebrate in the Tour de France.

the eastern Vosges mountains.
Martin, a three-time world champion known more for time-trial
dominance, showed that he could climb too; Italys Vincenzo Nibali, who
has been wearing the leaders yellow jersey, didnt lay a hard enough
chase of Gallopin to keep it.

THE DISPATCH www.cdispatch.com MONDAY, JULY 14, 2014 3B
SEC
Continued from Page 1B
n STAR POWER:
Jadeveon Clowney and
Johnny Manziel were the
headliners at last years
SEC media days, drawing
swarms of reporters and
getting shadowed by cam-
eras. No disrespect to the
current group, but none of
the 42 players scheduled
to attend have been under
quite the same spotlight.
Georgia tailback Todd
Gurley might come the
closest.
n QUARTERBACKS:
Six quarterbacks ini-
tially were scheduled to
speak at media days, but
Auburn replaced Nick
Marshall with tight end
C.J. Uzomah. The Tigers
quarterback was cited for
possession of less than an
ounce of marijuana during
a trafc stop Friday in
Reynolds, Georgia. The
remaining group includes
Ole Miss Bo Wallace and
Mississippi States Dak
Prescott and rst-year
starters Dylan Thompson
(South Carolina), Maty
Mauk (Missouri), and
Hutson Mason (Georgia).
Other jobs wont be set-
tled until preseason camp
with the most prominent
spot up for grabs coming
at Alabama, where Florida
State transfer Jacob Coker
enters the mix.
n PREDICTIONS: As
usual, the media will vote
on All-SEC teams and pre-
dicted nishes. The track
record four correct
picks in 22 tries would
get most coaches red.
Nevertheless, the favorite
in the Western Division
gures to be Auburn or Al-
abama. Georgia and South
Carolina are the presumed
front-runners in the East-
ern Division.
Keselowski
Continued from Page 1B
He joked he brought Kevlar-rein-
forced gloves that were touted as cut-
proof. Good thing. The New Hampshire
winner traditionally receives a live lob-
ster in Victory Lane.
Apparently, Ive got to win more and
Ill get better at it, he said. I think ev-
erybody got to hold the lobster. Were
looking forward to eating the lobster
later this week. I hear theyre going to
overnight the meat.
Hell get a taste of Loudon the Lobster
yes, thats its name a 20-pounder
caught off the coast of New Bedford,
Massachusetts.
And Keselowski won driving the
Redds Apple Ford Fusion, truly making
the win a Redd Lobster photo opp.
Keselowski keeps pilling up wins and
has proved he may be even better than
he was during 12 championship run.
I think in a lot of ways, were stron-
ger than that, he said. I dont think
weve had this much speed before.
After the last caution came with four
laps left, Keselowski pulled away on the
nal restart to become the rst driver to
sweep the weekend in track history. He
had the fastest car most of the weekend,
even leading the speed charts during
both Sprint Cup practices on Saturday.
You cant have a great car if you dont
have the best driver, team owner Roger
Penske said. I can tell you today, there
was nobody that could beat him.
Keselowski and Dale Earnhardt
Jr. clinched spots in the Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship, provided they
attempt to qualify for the nal seven rac-
es before the cutoff.
Pole sitter Kyle Busch was second.
Kyle Larson, Matt Kenseth and Ryan
Newman completed the top ve.
Busch said the No. 18 Toyota never
had enough to mount a serious chal-
lenge.
I dont think anybody did, he said.
Keselowski led 138 of 305 laps (four
more than the scheduled 301) and
helped Ford to its fourth straight win.
Ford last won four consecutive Sprint
Cup races in 2001.
World Cup
Continued from Page 1B
And then at the end of the
match, having a party with
the team, the whole coun-
try ... it is for us, a dream
come true.
At the nal whistle, Ger-
many players fell into a pile
in a mid-pitch celebration.
Messi walked past them
with his hands on his hips
still in the shadow of his
compatriot Diego Mara-
dona, who led his country
to the 1986 title.
The 22-year-old Goetze
went on as a substitute for
Miroslav Klose near the
end of regulation time and
his fresh legs made the dif-
ference.
Andre Schuerrle broke
down the left ank, send-
ing his cross into the area,
and the Bayern Munich
midelder did the rest with
a clinical nish. The goal
echoed that of Andres Ini-
esta four years ago, when
the midelder scored in
similar fashion but from
the other side of the area to
give Spain a 1-0 extra-time
win over the Netherlands.
It went entirely to script,
according to Germany
coach Joachim Loew.
I said to Mario Goetze,
OK, show to the world that
youre better than Messi
and you can decide the
World Cup. You have all
the possibilities to do that,
Loew said. I had a good
feeling with him.
Germany became the
rst European team to win
a World Cup in the Ameri-
cas, and the victory ends a
string of near misses since
winning its last major ti-
tle at the 1996 European
Championship. The team
lost the 2002 World Cup -
nal to Brazil, the Euro 2008
nal to Spain and was elim-
inated in the seminals in
both 2006 and 2010.
Argentina had not been
back in the nal since that
1990 loss, and has now
been beaten by Germany in
the last three World Cups.
This was our chance,
and we felt that way. We
couldnt do it. We have to
lift our heads and suffer the
pain, Argentina midelder
Javier Mascherano said.
Obviously, the pain is tre-
mendous.
It is Germanys rst
World Cup title as a unied
nation, having won as West
Germany in 1954, 1974 and
1990.
The Germans faced Ar-
gentina in both the 1986
and 1990 nals, during Ma-
radonas heyday. This time,
they were up against Mes-
si, the four-time world play-
er of the year who has set
a slew of scoring records in
leading Barcelona to every
major club title and is wide-
ly considered the best play-
er since Maradona.
But in the biggest game
of his career, Messi came
up short.
He had one good chance
to score when he was sent
free in the area just after
the halftime break, but
sent his shot wide. It was a
difcult angle, but still the
type of chance he so often
converts for Barcelona.
Messi threatened inter-
mittently throughout the
match, but was effectively
smothered by the German
defense. His free kick in
the 120th minute went well
high.
Messi, who scored four
goals in the group stage
but none in the knock-
out rounds, then had to
trudge alone up the stairs
of the Maracana Stadium
to accept the Golden Ball
award for the tourna-
ments best player, shak-
ing hands with German
Chancellor Angela Merkel
along the way.
I dont care about this
prize only lifting the
trophy matters, Messi
said. Im hurt for losing
the way we did. ... I think
we deserved a little better,
we had chances. As well as
they controlled the ball, we
still had the clearest chanc-
es. After Messi received
his award, the German
team made its way up the
stairs for captain Philipp
Lahm to raise the hallowed
18-carat gold trophy.
Anthony
Continued from Page 1B
you cant jump the gun on,
so we just held on to our in-
formation for a while. Were
all set.
The next step in rebuild-
ing the Knicks can occur.
Jackson is still cautioning
that it will take time, but
having Anthony is clearly a
big piece of the puzzle.
Anthony decided four
summers ago he wanted a
trade from Denver to New
York, and the Nuggets
were nally able to accom-
modate him in February
2011. Anthony, who was
born in Brooklyn, wrote in
his posting that at that time
he had dreamed of coming
back of New York.
But the 30-year-old for-
ward also wants to compete
for championships, and the
Knicks dont seem ready at
the moment. They went 37-
45 last season, the rst time
in Anthonys 11-year career
he missed the postseason.
Jacksons arrival in
March helped provide An-
thony with the condence
to return, believing the or-
ganization can return to its
glory days and contend for
a title.
Were glad Carmelo is
seeing we have the vision,
trusted us with what we
anticipate, said Jackson,
who won 11 NBA titles as a
coach six with Chicago
and ve with the Los An-
geles Lakers. He implied
and impressed upon us his
desire to win and to be on
a competitive team. Our
message to him is we are
going to be a competitive
team.
It may not be instanta-
neous, we may not be able
to just drop in and win a
championship. But its go-
ing to be something were
goal-oriented and thats the
direction were going. And
so were really happy he
came through and agreed
to apply his talents with us.
Anthony met with Chi-
cago, Houston, Dallas and
the Lakers after terminat-
ing the nal year of his
contract and becoming a
free agent July 1. A few of
those teams seem much
closer to contending than
the Knicks, but none could
offer anywhere near the
salary under NBA rules,
which allow players to sign
ve-year deals with their
current teams but only for
four years with another.
I am looking forward
to continue my career in
Orange & Blue and to work
with Phil Jackson, a cham-
pion who builds champi-
onship teams, Anthony
wrote.
Jackson and the Knicks
made it clear how much
they wanted to keep the
2012-13 NBA scoring
champion, telling him in a
July 3 meeting in Los An-
geles that they were willing
to pay him the maximum
allowable salary.
There never was any
tension in our conversa-
tions, Jackson said. I
think it really went very
well. All the conversations
were relaxed, they were
comfortable. You had the
feeling that he really want-
ed to listen to what was of-
fered and he really wanted
us to hear him and we did.

BY GERALD IMRAY

RIO DE JANEIRO Brazils
World Cup organizers can say it
now: Esta tudo bem its all
OK. What was everyone so wor-
ried about?
After being plagued by doubts
over whether the stadiums would
be ready and stay standing, and
if Brazils people would join in the
fun or try to spoil it, their tourna-
ment is a winner. Even if the Bra-
zilian team fell disastrously short.
Memorable games, fantas-
tic goals and, overall, one joyous
monthlong party from Copaca-
bana beach to the Amazon jungle
will be the story of Brazil 2014. The
Associated Press takes a look back
at the World Cup, rated as one of
the best in years despite pre-event
worries it could be one of the most
shambolic.
THE GAMES
They were great and the a-
vor of the football sweetened this
World Cup. The goals ew in, giv-
ing the tournament a very healthy
goal total and game average. The
quality was high as well: Robin
van Persies diving header for
the Netherlands, Lionel Messis
moments of magic for Argentina
and James Rodriguezs audacious
turn-and-volley for Colombia will
be remembered for World Cups
to come.
And what about some of the
results? The Dutch beating de-
fending champion Spain 5-1. Little
Costa Rica making the quarter-
nals. And, even if devastated Bra-
zil fans are desperate to forget it,
Germanys 7-1 dismantling of the
home team in the seminals an
awesome display of power and pre-
cision.
Apparently, the world was
watching too: TV companies in
the United States reported record
viewing gures for a World Cup,
some a 100 percent rise on previ-
ous tournaments. FIFA says there
were more tweets from across the
globe about the Brazil-Germany
game than any sports event ever.
THE STADIUMS
One of the two biggest head-
aches for Brazil coming into the
World Cup. The stadiums werent
perfect, but they worked out.
Chronic delays, accidents, and
worker deaths marred the con-
struction of some of the 12 venues
used and, at some, like Sao Pau-
los Itaquerao Stadium, tempo-
rary seating had to be brought in.
But that didnt detract from the
football, and unlike South Africa
last time, the stadiums were pretty
much full to the brim. At FIFAs last
count, Brazils average attendance
was set to be the second-highest
in tournament history behind only
the U.S. in 1994.
SECURITY / ORGANIZATION
FIFA and Brazilian organiz-
ers were given a rude awakening
when nearly 100 Chile fans broke
into Rio de Janeiros Maracana
Stadium the showpiece are-
na ahead of a group game and
rampaged through a media room,
breaking down walls and causing
havoc. The incident was deeply
embarrassing.
But widespread and violent
street protests the organizers
other main worry alongside the
unnished stadiums never
happened. Fears of a repeat of
the outbursts of anger that over-
shadowed last years Confeder-
ations Cup, when over 1 million
people took to the streets on one
day, were misplaced. There were
small protests but they were mar-
ginal to the World Cup. More
than 25,000 police and soldiers
secured Sundays nal, the big-
gest security detail in Brazilian
history. There was no messing
around.

D
EAR ABBY:
We were
visiting my
daughter and her
husband when
their 3-year-
old, Bethany,
entered our room
and rummaged
through our medi-
cations. The door
to the guest room
was closed and
the medications
had been placed
on a desk. Of
course, everyone
thought she had
ingested some,
so they rushed her to the ER.
We were fortunate that nothing
was found in her system.
My son-in-law thinks we
should help pay the medical
bills. I have sent several hun-
dred dollars, but he is asking
for more.
Bethany is an only child,
and they allow her free reign of
the house. I have other grand-
children who are even younger,
and none of them
would dream of
touching some-
thing that wasnt
theirs.
It has been
almost a year
since the
incident, and
they still havent
taught her to re-
spect and leave
things alone that
are not hers. My
daughter is a pro-
fessional and her
husband works
from home,
which concerns
me because he isnt as strict
as I feel is necessary.
Are we obligated to help
with more of her medical
expenses? I dont think so be-
cause we have already helped,
and I dont think its our job to
teach our grandchild boundar-
ies. OHIO GRANDMA
DEAR OHIO GRANDMA:
That must have been some
hefty emergency room bill!
Obviously, closing the guest
room door was not enough
to deter your granddaughter.
In hindsight, you now know
that you should keep anything
you dont want her to get into
locked in your suitcase. But
you and your husband are not
mind readers.
If this wasnt a wake-up call
to your daughter and son-in-
law that it was time to teach
their child the meaning of
No! and Dont touch! then
I dont know what it will take to
prevent another oops! As to
your shelling out more money
than you already have for Beth-
anys medical bills, I think you
have given enough, and you
should not be blamed for what
happened.

TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July
14). The next three weeks will
bring many happy occurrences
at once. Youll grant a loved
ones wish, and your own will
be granted soon after. Your
all-business attitude in August
will pay off. In September,
youll quickly recognize what
to cut out. A nancial bonus in
December allows for expan-
sion in the new year. Scorpio
and Aquarius people adore
you. Your lucky numbers are:
40, 2, 33, 48 and 14.
ARIES (March 21-April
19). You know that youre not
the center of the world, and
yet your own part of it is all you
can contribute to. Busily serve
your purposes without apology,
and good things will happen
for all.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20). There are many paths you
might take, including the path
that has yet to be blazed. In-
sistence on only one route will
bring matters to an impasse.
Be willing to detour, and your
travels will be smooth.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
If you cant seem to nd a
quiet place to work today, take
heart. Youll nd tranquility
inside yourself, and then it will
be reected in your environ-
ment not the other way
around.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Theres the you inside
who is mannered and formed
by the habits you have care-
fully put in place. Then theres
the you inside who you cant
help but be. Thats the you
someone is falling in love with
now.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Youll enjoy a good mystery, es-
pecially when it involves learn-
ing something you didnt know
about someone you thought
you knew quite well. This is
just the very start of what will
prove to be an intriguing and
drawn-out exploration.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Do you have the time to read?
Do you have the time to play
music and dance? If you can
adjust your responsibilities to
make time for these endeav-
ors, the world will be merrier
for it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Its as though you have to
be on all of the time. From
the moment you get up to the
moment you hit the hay, there
will be something important for
you to do. For leaders like you,
this comes with the territory.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Old information delivered
in a new way can be like poet-
ry. In fact, your novel approach
to sharing is part of what
makes you such desirable
company these days. The invi-
tations will keep owing in.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21). Theres much
to be gained by pretending.
You sometimes are afraid to
act out in this way because
you think its the same as
lying. Its not. Pretending is
imagining what could be and
trying it on.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Its been said that chil-
dren are essentially criminals.
Over the course of the day,
youll appreciate how children
have to be taught every little
thing, including the difference
between wrong and right.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). The project you take on
today may seem silly or frivo-
lous at rst, but in fact, it will
prove over time to be a pivotal
part of your destiny. You wont
go wrong giving it a solid quali-
ty of attention.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Labors of love keep you
excited about life. The chance
to create something that
wasnt there before is your
chief joy. The money involved
just complicates things. For
now, youll sweat for the sheer
pleasure of it.

CHICAGO Dan Ugglas
future in Atlanta was in ques-
tion Sunday after the Braves
suspended the struggling sec-
ond baseman for their nal
game before the All-Star break.
The team announced the
suspension on its Twitter feed,
with no further explanation.
Manager Fredi Gonzalez also
declined to elaborate when
asked about the punishment be-
fore the Braves 10-7 victory at
the Chicago Cubs.
Im not going to say any-
thing other than that its an in-
ternal matter, he said. Thats
the way I like to handle stuff,
and the Atlanta Braves like to
handle stuff. And thats it. You
can ask me 400 different ways
and my way is that were going
to handle it internally.
The 34-year-old Uggla has
played sparingly since rookie
Tommy La Stella was promoted
from Triple-A Gwinnett on May
28. The three-time All-Star is
batting .162 with two homers
and 10 RBIs in 48 games.
The Braves acquired Uggla
in a November 2010 trade with
the Marlins, and then signed
the three-time All-Star to a $62
million, ve-year contract be-
fore his rst game with Atlanta.
He is slated to make $13 million
next year in his nal season un-
der the deal.
Uggla had a 33-game hitting
streak and connected for 36
homers in his rst season with
the Braves, but most of his num-
bers have been trending down
over the past couple of years.
He hit just .179 with 22 hom-
ers and 171 strikeouts in 2013,
when Atlanta won the NL East
and lost to the Dodgers in the
division series.
Gonzalez said he expects Ug-
gla to be with the team when it
begins the second half at home
against the Phillies on Friday. He
also isnt worried about the effect
of the suspension on his team.
I dont think so. I got a pret-
ty good pulse of our clubhouse,
he said. If anybody wants to
talk to me, my door is always
open. And they know that.
Atlanta also promoted in-
elder Phil Gosselin from Tri-
ple-A Gwinnett before its series
nale against the Cubs. Goss-
elin hit .345 with ve homers
and 30 RBIs in 88 games with
Gwinnett.
Hes had a terric rst half
of the Triple-A season, Gonza-
lez said.
n Making All-Star game
worth big money for Gordon:
At Minneapolis, Despite miss-
ing the All-Star game because
of a sprained right wrist, just
getting picked was rewarding
for Kansas City outelder Alex
Gordon.
Gordon was among 47 of
the 81 All-Stars who had bonus
provisions in their contracts
triggered by their selection for
Tuesday nights game at Target
Field.
In addition to the $50,000
bonus, Gordon will benet from
an escalator provision in his
deal. By making the All-Star
team, his 2015 salary and a 2016
player option rise by $500,000
each to $14 million. Gordons
deal, which began in 2012, orig-
inally was worth $37.5 million
but now guarantees him at least
$40.2 million over four years
and $54.2 million over ve sea-
sons.
Gordon, elected as a reserve
by his fellow players, is among
13 of the original 68 All-Stars
who have been replaced, either
because they were hurt or were
starting pitchers who had out-
ings Sunday. He has not played
since Wednesday
Four players earned $100,000
All-Star bonuses: Detroit rst
baseman Miguel Cabrera, Tex-
as third baseman Adrian Bel-
tre, Detroit second baseman
Ian Kinsler, and Cleveland out-
elder Michael Brantley
