Muath al-Kaseasbeh standing in a cage just before being burned to death by his captors. Country executes two prisoners after Jordanian pilot burned alive BY OMAR AKOUR AND KARIN LAUB The Associated Press AMMAN, Jordan — A Jordanian government spokesman says Jordan has executed two prisoners, including a would-be female suicide bomber from al-Qaida. Th e exe c ut i o n s a t dawn Wednesday came just hours after Islamic State militants released a video that purportedly showed a captured Jordanian fighter pilot being burned alive in a cage. Jordan vowed a swift and lethal response. Government spokesman Mohammed al-Momani said that two prisoners, J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEN. BOB MENENDEZ (FROM LEFT), D-N.J., King Abdullah of Jordan, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker, R-Tenn., and Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., meet Tuesday at the Capitol in Washington. Sajida al-Rishawi and Ziad al-Karbouli, were executed early Wednesday. Al-Rishawi has been on death row for her role in a triple hotel bombing in the Jordanian capital Amman in 2005 that killed dozens. Her suicide belt did not detonate at the time and she fled the scene, but was quickly arrested. After a televised confession, she recanted, but her appeal was turned down. Al-Rishawi has family ties to the Iraqi branch of al-Qaida, a precursor of the Islamic State group. Over the past week, Jordan had twice offered to swap her for the pilot, Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh. However, officials have said his captors did not deliver proof he was still alive, and the swap never moved forward.

Work starts up on unsafe wooden bridge CLINTON — A contractor has started work to fix and replace a 100-year-old wooden bridge in East Tennessee. The state ordered the bridge on Johnson Gap Road in Anderson County immediately closed in July 2013 because it was so unsafe. CSX Railroad owns the bridge and hired the contractor. The railroad earlier wanted to give the county ownership of the bridge, provided the county agree to raze it and replace it with a concrete structure. Instead, the railroad’s contractor will fix the span, and the railroad will continue responsibility for maintenance.

Beer, dogs and charity all converged last Saturday as the Casual Pint in Maryville hosted a German Beer Dinner charity fundraiser for Wilderwood Service Dogs. A nonprofit organization that specializes in training dogs to help those with neurological diseases, the Wilderwood charity also benefited from contributions by local businesses Restaurant Linderhof, Rothchild Catering and KupKatie’s KupKakes. For Wilderwood founder and director Tiffany Denyer, the event comes as a much-needed buoy to help raise the funds necessary to train her dogs. Providing aid for conditions ranging from Alzheimer’s to autism, Wilderwood is the only organization in the nation to specialize in specifically training service dogs to benefit individuals with neurological diseases. In her line of work, Denyer experiences firsthand the benefits dogs can create for those suffering from neurological disease. “We’ve seen nonverbal children start talking with their dogs for the first time,” Denyer said of the animals, noting that their dogs are also trained to provide a calming presence for troubled post-traumatic stress syndrome patients and to be alarms for Alzheimer’s patients in dangerous situations. Growing up in family that owned and trained Brittany Spaniels, Denyer feels thankful for the chance to combine her passion for healing with immense love of animals. “I was able to marry my love and respect of what a quality dog can do and be for this particular client population, which is terribly underserved in Subscriptions: 981-1160 Paid-in-advance 7-day print delivery: Monthly (via auto draft): $12 13 weeks: $44 26 weeks: $81 52 weeks: $152 Electronic (E-edition) subscriptions: $5.95 per month Other subscription packages available CONTRIBUTED PHOTO HANNAH, A WILDERWOOD SERVICE DOG, snuggles and snoozes with Devyn.

Nominees who aren’t inducted this year will remain in BY ERIK SCHELZIG The Associated Press NASHVILLE — House Speaker Beth Harwell said Tuesday that she has offered to have her committee chairmen draw up an alternate proposal for Gov. Bill Haslam if his Insure Tennessee plan appears to be headed for defeat in the ongoing special legislative session. Harwell told a conference organized by the National Federation of Independent Business and the Tennessee Grocers and Convenience Store Association that it’s not yet clear whether the governor’s proposal to extend health coverage to 280,000 low-income Tennesseans will gain enough votes to support. Harwell said her colleagues are not yet convinced that the governor’s proposal to require co-pays, incentives for healthy lifestyles and revisions to the way medical procedures are reimbursed to hospitals will reverse the Medicaid drain on state finances. “Whether you view that as enough to reduce costs is a real issue the General Assembly is struggling with right now, and there are plenty of people who don’t believe that would significantly reduce costs,” she said. One problem facing lawmakers is that the governor’s measure faces an up-or-down vote without a chance for lawmakers to make adjustments to make them more comfortable with the deal Haslam negotiated with federal government. “I think that I have offered to the governor — and I think he’ll know better by Heritage High seeks nominations for first Alumni Hall of Fame class ERIK SCHELZIG | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSE SPEAKER BETH HARWELL, R-Nashville, speaks at a joint conference of the state chapter of the National Federation of Independent Business and the Tennessee Grocers and Convenience Store Association Tuesday in Nashville. (today) whether he wants this — is to let our committee chairmen issue a report to say, ‘We’d like to see the following things and offer them back to you.’ “And then he can go back and renegotiate with the federal government,” she said. House Republican leader Gerald McCormick of Chattanooga said earlier in the day that Haslam’s proposal would pass comfortably in a full floor vote, but faces an uphill battle in legislative committees. An overflow crowd of supporters and opponents jammed into hearing room and hallways of the legislative office complex as lawmakers took up the pro- posal for the first time in the special session. “It’s important to note what this resolution does not do: It does not implement Obamacare in Tennessee,” McCormick said. “If the governor had wanted to do that, he could have done that in 2013 very quickly without any debate.” Instead, McCormick said, the governor spent 21 months negotiating a special deal for Tennessee that includes market-based elements like vouchers to buy private insurance, co-pays and assurances that the state could pull out of the deal if it ends up being more expensive than expected. Hospitals have pledged to cover the $74 million state share, meaning taxpayers wouldn’t be on the hook to pay for extra health insurance costs. Craig Becker, president of the Tennessee Hospital Association, said the Medicaid expansion would help make up for $7.8 billion in cuts that state hospitals are facing over a decade. the consideration for five years.

Mixed together, U.S. revenues for bourbon and Tennessee whiskey rose by 9.6 percent to $2.7 billion last year, the Distilled Spirits Council said. Domestic volume shot up 7.4 percent to 19.4 million cases, it said. The revenue and volume gains last year were similar to increases the category registered in 2013. “Consumers in the U.S. and around the globe are increasingly enjoying bourbon and Tennessee whiskey because of their distinctive flavor profiles and authentic American heritage,” said the council’s chief economist, David Ozgo. The domestic numbers reflect sales from producers or suppliers to wholesalers. MORE GOOD NEWS In another good sign for producers’ bottom lines, the category’s super premium products notched 19.2 percent gains in both revenues and volumes — by far the biggest increases across price spectrums. Super premium products age longer and fetch higher prices. Industrywide, supplier sales for the U.S. distilled spirits industry were up 4 percent to $23.1 billion last year, the council said. Total U.S. volume growth increased 2.2 percent to 210 million cases, it said. ERIK SCHELZIG | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A DIAGEO EMPLOYEE WALKS BY barrels of whiskey stored in a new warehouse on Aug. 14 at the George Dickel distillery near Tullahoma. Irish Whiskey and Single Malt Scotch continued their rapid growth with volume growth of 9.1 percent and 6.4 percent, respectively, the council said. Cognac volumes shot up 11.4 percent, while tequila volumes rose 5 percent. Overall vodka volumes went up 1.6 percent. The comeback of the cocktail culture along with the popularity of flavored whiskeys and premium products drove the growth, officials said. “Consumer interest in industry innovations and premium products from distilled spirits producers of all sizes contributed to another year of steady growth in 2014,” said council President and CEO Peter H. Cressy. The industry lumps bourbon and Tennessee whiskey into one category. Both are produced in the same way and with similar ingredients. The main difference is that Jack Daniel’s and other Tennessee whiskeys are charcoal mellowed before going into the barrel to age, while bourbon isn’t. OVERSEAS DEMAND Kentucky produces 95 percent of the world’s bourbon supply, according to the Kentucky Distillers’ Association. More than 5.3 million barrels of bourbon are maturing in Kentucky, outnumbering the state’s population. Meanwhile, demand for bourbon and Tennessee whiskey remained strong with overseas drinkers, with exports projected to top $1.02 billion for 2014, the council said. Those exports surpassed $1 billion for the first time in 2013, it said. The latest sales figures underscore Kentucky bourbon’s emergence as a “global force” and one of the state’s “most prized economic engines,” said Eric Gregory, president of the Kentucky Distillers’ Association. “This is just further proof BLOUNT RECORDS bond pending a 1:30 p.m. Feb. 9 hearing.

The union appealed to the State Department as the American contact point for the multinational Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. The organization has a code of conduct for multinational corporations. It’s the latest move in an ongoing struggle by the UAW to unionize the plant’s 6,000 workers. No petition for a union election has been filed, but the CORE PRINCIPLES The automaker says respecting national laws is one of its core principles. “Nissan respects labor laws in every nation where it operates and works to ensure that all employees are aware of these laws, understand their rights, enjoy the freedom to express their opinions and have the ability to select whether they wish to have external representation or self-represent,” Saia wrote. The State Department wrote that it “determined that the issues raised by UAW/IndustriALL are material and substantiated and merit further examination,” but also said that if Nissan had chosen to mediate, that shouldn’t be taken as an admission of guilt. Nissan said the allegations were based solely on a UAW report. The State Department recommended that Nissan conduct a companywide review of labor rights and that it consider some kind of mediation with unions. FUNERAL NOTICES COURT RECORDS Charged with driving under the influence of an intoxicant: Alcoa Jack Richard Weddington II, 42, Tarbett Road, Rockford, also cited for driving on a revoked license and registration violation that we are on the cusp of a golden age of Kentucky bourbon,” he said. “This is a renaissance we haven’t seen in generations, and possibly in the entire history of our signature spirit.” Overall, American spirits exports in 2014 grew by a projected 3.7 percent to $1.56 billion, the council said. It would mark the fifth straight year of record exports. “Despite the strong dollar headwinds in the second half of the year, premium American spirits are finding new audiences globally, in both traditional and emerging markets,” said Christine LoCascio, the council’s senior vice president for international trade. The council said the export figures are based partly on data from the U.S. International Trade Commission. Canada was projected as the biggest market for American distilled spirits, based on dollar value, the council said. JACKSON, Miss. — Nissan Motor Co. has declined U.S. State Department mediation of its dispute with the United Autoworkers over the union’s attempts to organize a Mississippi plant. The UAW says Nissan is intimidating workers at its Canton plant and violating their rights to unionize under international laws. The UAW and the IndustriALL Global Union federation asked the State Department for mediation in April. That mediation could only happen if Nissan agreed, and the State Department announced Jan. 30 that the company had refused, saying it “regrets Nissan’s unwillingness to participate in the process.” Justin Saia, a spokesman for the Japanese automaker, said Nissan prefers to rely on U.S. laws covering unionization. UAW has been mounting an international campaign, in part because most nonAmerican facilities of Nissan and its allied company Renault are unionized. “It is clear Nissan behaves one way in some parts of the world but is grossly exploiting workers in the United States,” UAW President Dennis Williams said in a statement. “The fact that the company continues to ignore the severity of the situation and its refusal to end these abuses or engage in dialogue that could result in a positive step forward for both workers and the company is absolutely unreasonable.” THEFTS Blount County Ron Parker, Doe Drive, Greenback, reported at 5:22 p.m. Feb. 2 that he returned home to find his $2,000 utility trailer missing.

The northbound Metro-North Railroad train struck a Jeep Cherokee at a crossing in Valhalla, about 20 miles north of New York City, railroad spokesman Aaron Donovan said. Killed were the SUV’s driver and five people aboard the train, he said, making this crash the railroad’s deadliest. The railroad crossing gates had come down on top of the SUV, which was stopped on the tracks, the spokesman said. The driver got out to look at the rear of the vehicle, then she got back in and drove forward and was struck, he said. The train shoved the SUV about 10 train car lengths, and the SUV and the front of the train caught fire, he said. Smoke poured out of the scorched front rail car, its windows blackened. Passengers described a bump and said they smelled gasoline from the vehicle. More than 750 passengers likely were aboard the train, including Justin Kaback, commuting home to Danbury, Connecticut. “I was trapped. You know there was people in front of me and behind me, and I was trapped in the middle of a car and it was getting very hot,” he told ABC News. “All the air was turned off so there was no circulation so it was definitely scary especially when people are walking by on the outside and they said, ‘The train’s on fire. There’s a fire.”’ Passenger Stacey Eisner, who was at the rear of the train, told NBC News that she felt the train “jerk” and then a conductor walked through the train explaining what had happened. She said her train car was evacuated about 10 minutes later using ladders to get people out. The other rail passengers were moved to the rear of the train, which had left Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan about 45 minutes earlier. Passengers got off from the rear. About 400 of them were taken to a local rock climbing gym for shelter. Buses were heading there to pick them up and take them to their destinations. Metro-North is the nation’s second-busiest railroad, after the Long Island Rail Road. It was formed in 1983 and serves about 280,000 riders a day in New York and Connecticut. Service on its Harlem Line was suspended between Pleasantville and North White Plains after the crash. Metro-North has been criticized severely for accidents over the last couple of years. Late last year, the National Transportation Safety Board issued rulings on five accidents that occurred in New York and Connecticut in 2013 and 2014, repeatedly finding fault with the railroad while also noting that conditions have improved. Among the accidents was a Dec. 1, 2013, derailment that killed four people, the railroad’s first passenger fatalities, in the Bronx. The NTSB said the engineer had fallen asleep at the controls because he had a severe, undiagnosed case of sleep apnea. MILK: Product is lactose free, has more calcium FROM 1A TOM SHERLIN | THE DAILY TIMES RURAL/METRO AMBULANCE WORKERS LOAD an accident victim into Lifestar helicopter for transport to the hospital in this file photo from 2014. Rural/Metro holds the current Blount County contract, which expires June 30. AMBULANCE: Bids on RFPs will be opened on March 3 FROM 1A to any resident of Blount County based on their ability to pay. Bids will be opened March 3. Meanwhile, the county will investigate where it makes sense to run its own ambulance service. “We will be putting together a committee that will be made up of members of emergency service providers in the county,” County Mayor Ed Mitchell said. According to the RFP, “Contractor acknowledges that Blount County shall initiate a study on the feasibility of a county-owned ambulance service. When this action is taken and if the county decides that a county-owned service is the most advantageous method of providing services to the citizens of Blount County, the county shall depend on the contractor to continue provision of all services required under this contract until the county is prepared to provide its own service. “During that period, the current contractor shall continue operations at the same level of effort and performance as were in effect prior to the decision. “Contractor shall be prohibited from making any changes in contractor’s methods of operation which could reasonably be considered to be aimed at cutting costs to maximize profits during the final stages of the contract. Failure to comply with this section shall result in forfeiture of contractor’s performance bond.” According to the proposal, the EMS provider cannot raise rates for the first two years of the contract. After that period, the company can request rate increases every year the contract is up for renewal. Rural/Metro does charge the county to transport inmates for medical issues, but those rates were not available Tuesday. JORDAN: Obama says video shows ‘viciousness’ of ISIS FROM 1A that al-Kaseasbeah was already killed on Jan. 3. Al-Kaseasbeh had fallen into the hands of the militants in December when his F-16 crashed near Raqqa, Syria, the de facto capital of the group’s selfstyled caliphate. He is the only coalition pilot to be captured to date. The killing of the 26-yearold pilot appeared aimed at pressuring the government of Jordan — a close U.S. ally — to leave the coalition that has carried out months of airstrikes targeting Islamic State positions in Syria and Iraq. But the extremists’ brutality against a fellow Muslim could backfire and galvanize other Sunni Muslims in the region against them. King Abdullah II, who has portrayed the campaign against the extremists as a battle over values, was in Washington on a previously scheduled trip. He added a stop at the White House with President Barack Obama. The monarch broadcast a speech on Jordanian TV on Tuesday evening, confirming the pilot’s death “with sorrow and anger,” and urging his countrymen to unite. ‘STAND UNITED’ “It’s the duty of all of us to stand united and show the real values of Jordanians in the face of these hardships,” Abdullah said. The official Petra news agency said he would be cutting short his Washington trip. Obama said the Islamic State group’s video, if authentic, showed “the viciousness and barbarity of this organization.” “And it, I think, will redouble the vigilance and determination on the part of a global coalition to make sure that they are degraded and ultimately defeated,” he told reporters during an event at the White House. Obama later issued a statement offering condolences, saying the pilot’s “dedication, courage, and service to his country and family represent universal human values that stand in opposition to the cowardice and depravity of ISIL, which has been so broadly rejected around the globe.” The Islamic State group is known variously by the acronyms ISIL, ISIS and, in Arabic, Daesh. Dozens of people chanting slogans against the Islamic State marched toward the royal palace to express their anger. Waving a Jordanian flag, they chanted, “Damn you, Daesh!” and “We will avenge, we will avenge our son’s blood.” Jordanian officials said the country would response swiftly and decisively. “Our punishment and revenge will be as huge as the loss of the Jordanians,” said the spokesman of the armed forces, Mamdouh al-Ameri. The 20-minute video purportedly showing the pilot’s killing was released on militant websites and bore the logo of the extremist group’s al-Furqan media service. The clip featured the slick production and graphics used in previous Islamic State videos. The pilot showed signs of having been beaten, including a black eye. Toward the end of the video, he was shown wearing an orange jumpsuit. He stood in an outdoor cage as a masked militant ignited a line of fuel leading to it. VIDEO THREATENS OTHER PILOTS The video, which could not immediately be conf irmed independently by The Associated Press, threatened other purported Jordanian pilots by name. It emerged three days after Japanese journalist Kenji Goto was purportedly beheaded by the militants. The fate of the jour- nalist and the pilot had been linked by their captors. Al-Kaseasbeh is from a tribal area in southern Jordan’s Karak district. The tribes are considered a mainstay of support for the monarchy, but the pilot’s capture has strained that relationship. Members of the pilot’s family have repeatedly accused the government of botching efforts to win his release and have also criticized Jordan’s participation in the anti-IS alliance. The pilot’s father, Safi Yousef al-Kaseasbeh, was attending a tribal meeting in Amman when news of the video surfaced, and he was seen being led from the session. Other men were seen outside, overcome with emotion. Late on Tuesday, as word spread of his death, protesters marched in his home village of Ai and set a local government office on fire. Witnesses said the atmosphere was tense and that riot police were patrolling the streets. made. Filters are used to separate the various components in milk. Then, more of the favorable components are added, while the less desirable ones are kept out. The result is a drink that Fairlife says is lactose free and has 50 percent more protein, 30 percent more calcium and 50 percent less sugar than regular milk. The same process is used make Fairlife’s Core Power, a drink marketed to athletes that has even more protein and calcium than Fairlife milk. Sue McCloskey, who developed the system used to make Fairlife with her husband Mike McCloskey, said Fairlife will be marketed more broadly to women who are the “gatekeepers” for their families’ nutritional needs. Even while touting its nutritional advantages, however, Fairlife will need to be careful about communicating how its drink is made. Jonas Feliciano, senior beverage analyst for market researcher Euromonitor, noted people want drinks that “do something for me,” but that Fairlife’s juicedup nutritional stats may make people hesitant about how natural it is. “They have to explain that this is not an abomination of nature,” Feliciano said. COLBERT POKES FUN Already, Fairlife has been subject to some teasing. After the drink was referenced in Coke’s analyst presentation, comedian Stephen Colbert referred to it as “extra expensive science milk” and made fun of the elaborate way it’s made. “It’s like they got Frankenstein to lactate,” he said. Colbert also took a dig at the wholesome image Fairlife is trying to project, noting that it’s made by the “nature loving health nuts at Coca-Cola.” That may explain why CocaCola is distancing itself from the product; a representative for the Atlantabased company referred questions to Fairlife’s outside representative. In a phone interview, Fairlife CEO and former Coke executive Steve Jones said he thinks his company can help reverse the ongoing decline in milk consumption by offering a superior product. Major retailers including Wal-Mart, Target, Kroger and Safeway have agreed to carry it and Coca-Cola’s Minute Maid team plans to make it available wherever milk is sold. The drink, which comes in a sleek plastic bottle reminiscent of milk cartons, has already started appearing on shelves and is expected to continue rolling out nationally over the next several weeks. At a supermarket in Indianapolis, a 52-ounce bottle of Fairlife was being sold for $4.59. By comparison, the national average cost for a half-gallon of milk, which is 64 ounces, is $2.18, according to the USDA. For organic milk, the average is $3.99. Fairlife is just one of many ventures by CocaCola, which also recently took stakes in energy drink maker Monster Beverages and Keurig Green Mountain, which makes single-serving coffee machines and pods.

Cathy Potter, who works at the MHS cafeteria, is a winner of the School Nutrition Foundation’s 2015 School Nutrition Hero award. Potter’s not the only winner. Five winners were selected from nominees from across the nation. Four had administrative titles: director of food services, director of nutrition services, district chief and food service director. Only one winner works with spoons on the line. Only one holds the title cafeteria server/ helper. Only Potter is cafeteria lady extraordinaire. The School Nutrition Hero award goes to individuals who’ve dedicated their lives to expanding access to healthy school meals and serving the needs of their community. No doubt about it, Potter does that. Her heart — “I can’t stand the idea of kids going without food” — led her to become director of the summer food program. Maryville City Schools served 1,000 to 1,200 children per day last year. Including breakfast and supper, on some days the district served close to 3,000 meals. Cathy Potter’s commitment takes her beyond the school cafeteria. She founded Heaven Sent Homes, a temporary, emergency shelter for women and children who are abused and/or misplaced. The nonprofit opened a shelter for women and children in January 2003 and opened a separate shelter for men at a different location three months later. The shelters give residents a clean and safe home where they learn independent living skills and receive counseling. Heaven Sent Homes receives no public funding, but several churches support the program that is based on operation Christian principles. Potter also coordinates holiday dinners for the needy, creates meal programs for the shelters and spearheads gift collecting and fundraising to support disadvantaged families — and more. We can only hope Potter’s recognition helps lift the affectionate title of lunch lady to the appreciated status it deserves. Award-winning children’s book author Jerrett Krosoczka would agree. He writes the popular “Lunch Lady” series of graphic novels that raises a cafeteria worker to superhero status. Undercover, she fights crime using kitchen utensils and is acclaimed for “Serving Justice! Serving Lunch!” Potter knows about serving. She lives it: “My entire life revolves around service. It makes me happy, filling my heart with joy because I know I’m helping others. I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing.” Doing it with affection, with nutrition, with taste — fighting hunger wherever she finds it. Cathy Potter’s commitment takes her beyond the school cafeteria. OTHER VOICES Teaching the smallest I t was disheartening to learn recently that half of Kentucky kindergartners began school last fall without basic skills they need to succeed. That means 4- and 5-year-olds are showing up for kindergarten unfamiliar with simple things like how to hold a pencil or the regular reading of books. Some have never had an adult read to them. And the numbers have barely budged from the previous year, the first year school officials administered a statewide test to determine how well-prepared kids are to begin school. That means one 1 of 2 children in Kentucky aren’t considered ready when they enter kindergarten. But the good news is that organizations throughout the state are working to reach families to offer ways they can develop learning skills in young children regardless of income status or whether parents can afford a high-priced preschool. And they are finding some unique and innovative ways to do that. Educators caution it will take time and effort to turn around Kentucky’s low rate of kindergarten readiness. But it can be done ... “one child, one family, at a time.” The Courier-Journal (Louisville, Ky.) TODAY’S BIBLE VERSE SUBMITTED BY REBA ORR, MARYVILLE And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.. Psalm 40:3 THE DAILY TIMES Blount County’s only daily newspaper, serving our readers since 1883 Published by Blount County Publishers LLC Gregg K. Jones President Carl Esposito Publisher Frank Trexler Managing Editor Richard Dodson News Editor Dean Stone Editor Melanie Tucker LifeTimes Editor Robert Norris City Editor Larry Aldridge Executive Editor Marcus Fitzsimmons Sports Editor Daryl Sullivan Photo Editor F Seeking a vaccine for ignorance lashback: Galileo is sitting under house arrest pondering the unyielding ignorance of The Church for refusing to consider his heliocentric proposition that the Earth circled the sun, which, contrary to Scripture, was at the center of what we now call the solar system. We find this historical anecdote preposterous today, but people were persecuted for lesser heresies in Galileo’s time. Though we are now centuries removed from such dim-wittery, we find ourselves in a not-dissimilar pickle. After decades free of many crippling and deadly diseases thanks to the miracle of vaccines, some people are skeptical. Parents fearful of side effects, often on account of anecdotal evidence or discredited studies, are reluctant to vaccinate their children. Marin County, Calif., a liberal enclave famous for its beauty and wealth, seems to be the epicenter of the debate. Many have opted out of vaccinations as part of their evolution into honeybees. Some see vaccines as a conspiracy of Big Pharma. Elsewhere, especially in the South, people are simply distrustful of authority, especially government. The latter group is familiarly known as the GOP base. They tend to be litmus-test conservatives on social issues and place Scripture above science. On the bright side, the far left and the far right finally have found common ground. They’d rather let their children risk illness — and their country an epidemic — than contaminate their offspring’s pristine bodies with antibodies. Oh, to be a fly at that picnic! One wonders what public tortures Jonas Salk might have encountered had he presented his polio vaccine today rather than in the 1950s. One crucial difference is that polio left visual reminders of its assault on the human body. The 1952 epidemic affected nearly 58,000 people, more than 3,100 of whom died and some 21,000 were left disabled. Most Americans under the age of 50, including doctors, have never seen measles. Now, after decades of being a virtually measles-free nation, we have 100 cases spread across at least 14 states and the potential for more as stubborn purists resist common sense. Science and experience overwhelmingly support vaccines, and the single study to the contrary, suggesting a connection to autism, has been thoroughly discredited. Naturally, into this tar pit, the GOP presidential field has fallen. Or rather, been pushed. Asked about the vaccine controversy, both New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul have handed the media a fresh bone to gnaw. Christie initially said that parents “need to have some measure of choice,” though he later clarified by saying that children should be vaccinated against measles. Paul told radio host Laura Ingraham, “While I think it’s a good idea to take the vaccine, I think that’s a personal decision for individuals.” Neither comment standing alone is objectionable. Barring a time-release patch from God, vaccines are the best we’ve got. Eventually, most parents come around to this conclusion, despite reluctance to inject their children with a tiny dose of the virus. They do it because the alternative is unthinkable. While parents’ rights should always be protected in the absence of harm to their children, the public health of the nation also has to be protected. Individual rights are justifiably modified when the exercise of those rights adversely affects others. Smoking is a textbook example of this premise. Preserving individual freedom is one of the compelling forces of modern conservatism and remains its most attractive feature. Thus, Republican candidates are faced with a daunting balancing act of confirming to primary voters their allegiance to the principle while also signaling to the rest of the country that they’re not that foolish. These conundrums are not new. The conflict between individual rights and the greater good is the fundamental argument in a democracy, the success of which relies upon an educated rather than only radio-informed citizenry, as well as leaders willing to defend science over ideology. Aspiring presidents would do well to articulate these conflicts with compassion, without condescension or pandering — while explaining why, in this case, vaccines are the right choice. For starters they might quote Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “Study after study has shown that there are no negative long-term consequences. And the more kids who are not vaccinated, the more they’re at risk and the more they put their neighbors’ kids at risk as well.” There. That didn’t hurt much, did it?

Imagination Library sponsored for 10th year The Maryville Kiwanis Foundation is now beginning its 10th year of sponsoring Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library program for Blount County children. The Maryville Kiwanis Club began the program in November 2005. During these nine-plus years, 462,000 books have been mailed to 12,300 children. The Foundation has raised $488,000 to pay for one-half of the books and mailing cost. The other half is paid by the Governor’s Books From Birth Foundation. This money has been raised by the generosity of our members, Kiwanis fundraisers, and various organizations and businesses in our community. I especially want to highlight and recognize a young lady who has supported this program over the past several years. This past December, we received the following letter from Megan Underwood, who is a student at Carpenters Elementary. Dear Maryville Kiwanis, Hi again! It’s Megan Underwood. For my 1lth birthday, instead of presents, I asked for donations for Imagination Library. I came up with $106. I hope it provides at least three kids the ability to learn to read. Anyway, have a Merry Christmas and I hope to donate next year, too! Sincerely, Megan Underwood I believe this totally describes the impact this program has had on children’s young lives as they are being prepared to enter school. We have had many other words and notes of thanks from parents, teachers and students. We believe providing these free books for children, birth to 5 years of age, is making a difference in a child’s love of books and reading. It is a wonderful way to bond parents and child as they sit and read together. Thank you Blount County for helping make a difference in so many young lives!

HIRSCH AP Food Editor Start to finish: 30 minutes (15 minutes active) Servings: 4 1 head cauliflower, cored and cut into chunks 1 yellow onion, quartered 2 cloves garlic 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1⁄2 teaspoon whole peppercorns (black or mixed) 2 tablespoons yellow (or other light) miso Hot sauce, to taste Salt 1⁄4 cup pepitas (hulled pumpkin seeds) 2 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce) In a large saucepan or stockpot over medium-high, combine the cauliflower, onion, garlic, broth and peppercorns. Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is very tender. Working in batches if necessary, carefully transfer the mixture, including all of the broth, to a blender. Make certain the blender cover is secure when working with hot ingredients. Puree until smooth. Add the miso and hot sauce (start with 1⁄2 teaspoon) to the blender, then puree again to blend. Taste, then season with salt. Return the soup to the pot and keep warm over low heat. In a medium skillet over medium heat, toast the pumpkin seeds. Stir the seeds constantly until they all have puffed and barely begun to brown. Add the tamari to the skillet, being careful about splatters. Stir until the tamari has completely evaporated and coated the pepitas. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and top each serving with pepitas.

As money got tight, my mom would whip up a beans and rice casserole, a healthy, budget-friendly choice that stretched our pantry a bit longer. Not that we necessarily appreciated it. “It’s a complete protein!” Mom would proudly announce as my sister and I groaned. But mom was right — beans and rice are a great combination worth another look. Red beans are a classic choice for this combination, especially in spicy Creole cuisine. Red beans and rice likely became popular because of its nutrition profile. Red kidney beans are full of protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Adding rice to the dish completes the amino acids needed to make a complete protein, making beans and rice a fantastic option for vegetarians. In Creole cuisine, the dish is flavored with a bit of meat, either sausage, ham, or just the ham bone leftover from a previous meal. Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 8 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 yellow onion, finely chopped 1 large celery stalk, chopped 1 small red pepper, cored and chopped 6 ounces cooked ham, cubed (about 1 cup) 3 cloves garlic, minced or pressed 1⁄2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin 1⁄2 teaspoon dried thyme 1⁄4 cup dry white wine 3 cups low-sodium chicken broth Two 15-ounce cans red kidney beans, drained and rinsed 3 cups water 2 cups long-grain white rice Kosher salt 2 to 3 teaspoons cider vinegar or white vinegar Ground black pepper Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped, to garnish In a large, heavy saucepan over medium, heat the oil. Add the onion, celery, red pepper and ham and saute until the vegetables are tender and the meat is starting to turn golden, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin and thyme, then cook for an additional 2 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, then add the wine and stir to deglaze the pan. Stir until the wine bubbles and mostly evaporates, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and kidney beans, bring to a simmer, then lower the heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large sauce- pan over medium-high, bring the water to a simmer. Add the rice and a pinch of salt, then cover and reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is fluffy. Once the beans are done, stir in 2 teaspoons of the vinegar. Taste and season with salt, pepper and additional vinegar, if needed. Spoon the rice into serving bowls, then top with the beans and fresh cilantro or parsley.

Kitchen apps slow to take off BY MICHELE KAYAL The Associated Press MATTHEW MEAD | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A FONDUE DUO OF chocolate mango and five spice caramel sauces are anything but ordinary for that special Valentine. FONDUE DUO OF CHOCOLATE-MANGO AND FIVE-SPICE CARAMEL SAUCES dishes. If they get too cool, just pop them in the microwave for a few seconds. BY ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press Worried your kitchen skills may not be up to pulling together something impressively decadent for Valentine’s Day? Fear not. A pricy restaurant meal isn’t your only option. We created this delicious, yet simple pair of fondue sauces to be easy for even the most clueless cook. But we didn’t sacrifice the wow-factor in the process. Warm chocolate-mango and five-spice caramel sauces are anything but ordinary. For ease, we pair them with purchased items for dipping — biscotti, pound cake, fresh berries, whatever inspires you. And while fondue pots are nice, they aren’t essential. You also can offer these sauces in small serving Start to finish: 40 minutes Servings: 4 For the chocolate fondue: 1⁄2 cup mango puree 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped 3 tablespoons honey For the caramel fondue: 1⁄2 cup half-and-half 5 ounces caramels (about 17 to 18 pieces) 1⁄2 teaspoon five-spice powder For dunking: Wafer cookies Fresh berries Biscotti Marshmallows Pound cake, cut into cubes or sticks 125 $ Angel food cake, cut into cubes or sticks In a small saucepan over medium, heat the mango puree and butter until simmering and the butter has melted. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate and honey. Allow to sit for 2 minutes, then stir with a rubber spatula until smooth. Set aside, but keep warm. In another small saucepan over medium, heat the half-and-half until it simmers. Add the caramels and five-spice powder, then cook, stirring constantly, until the caramels are melted and the mixture is smooth. Transfer the two mixtures to 2 small serving bowls. Set on a platter surrounded by the various items for dunking. Alternatively, set up 2 heated fondue pots according to product directions and pour the dipping sauces into those. Serve immediately. A few years ago, former video game executive Kevin Yu was cooking for a girlfriend on Valentine’s Day when he discovered he’d forgotten the mushrooms for the mushroom soup. But that was just the start. He’d also lost track of timing on the various dishes, and he was just generally making a mess of things. “I was trying to whip up a three-course meal at the last minute, and it ended up a disaster,” Yu says. “She didn’t leave me because of the cooking, but the cooking didn’t help.” But does it surprise you that these days there’s an app for that? The cooking part, anyway. Yu is the founder of SideChef, a cooking app that supplements recipes with social media and aims to help home cooks avoid disasters like his. It’s one of thousands of apps that offer recipes, step-by-step videos, measurement conversion, timers, shopping lists and other elements meant to simplify our lives in the kitchen. But while apps have commandeered so many aspects of our lives, tracking our fitness, our sleep, our banking, our navigation, they have been slow to take over our kitchens. “They haven’t blown up yet,” says Harrison Weber, news editor at VentureBeat.com, an online magazine that covers technology innovation. “It hasn’t hit a tipping point in terms of usefulness and market need.” Digital cookbooks have notoriously failed in the publishing world, and account for a minuscule percentage of total cookbook sales. But develop- ers argue that apps are not just another platform for digital recipes. Apps, they say, offer convenience, portability and, at their best, a new way of interacting with the information. Some of the earliest cooking apps were extensions of popular cookbooks. In 2011, baking expert Dorie Greenspan helped create a companion app to her book “Baking with Dorie” that used video to walk users through the recipes. Portland, Oregon-based app developer Culinate offers similarly interactive apps for books such as Mark Bittman’s “How to Cook Everything.” The most popular apps today are the ones that build on trends, such as gluten-free or vegan recipes, says Fiona O’Donnell, a lifestyles analyst at Chicago-based market research firm Mintel, or on products that already have a large following, such as Allrecipes.com and Epicurious.com. The Food Network’s “In the Kitchen” app, which features recipes and videos from the network’s celebrity chefs, boasts more than 5 million downloads. Many cooking and other apps also follow the principles of “gamification,” applying the social media, build-your-own environment and other principles of video games. Yu, a former community development executive for the game World of Warcraft, says his SideChef app will offer similar aspects of community. But apps won’t change the way we shop, cook and eat, say analysts and app developers, until they fully integrate every step of the process, from deciding what to make, to delivering a recipe, its ingredients and “smart” appliances with which to cook it.

TASTE | 11A THE DAILY TIMES Wednesday, February 4, 2015 www.thedailytimes.com SAUSAGE AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH PERSONAL LASAGNAS BY J.M. HIRSCH AP Food Editor The notion that a great Valentine’s Day dinner should be fancy or somehow over-the-top is way overrated. I’ll take delicious comfort food over a fussy meal any day, regardless of the romance quotient. And when I want real comfort — deep down, rich, winter night snuggling comfort — I want noodles and cheese. Now that is a romantic combination. How to pare them for this special dinner, however, requires some thought. A basic mac and cheese could be a little too pedestrian (particularly if your partner is hoping for at least a little pizazz). And most red sauce pasta dishes rely on that great killer of romance — garlic. I liked the idea of lasagna, but a giant baking dish of lasagna tends to radiate “potluck” more than “intimate dinner.” So I decided to downsize this meal, using individual springform pans to create personal lasagnas. They are easy to assemble, cook faster than a whole lasagna and look great on the plate. For dessert, keep it simple. In a small saucepan, stir together a few tablespoons of strawberry jam with a splash of balsamic vinegar and a bit of black pepper. Heat until just warm, then drizzle over vanilla or chocolate ice cream. Crumble almond biscotti over the top and call it a night. Start to finish: 11⁄2 hours (30 minutes active) Servings: 2 2 cups cubed butternut squash Kosher salt and ground black pepper 6 ounces loose Italian sausage 1 medium yellow onion, diced 3⁄4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese 1 egg 1⁄3 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1⁄4 teaspoon dried basil 1⁄4 teaspoon dried oregano 1⁄2 cup heavy cream 6 ounces fresh pasta sheets (three 6-by-81⁄2-inch sheets) 1⁄2 cup grated mozzarella cheese Heat the oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with foil, then mist it with cooking spray. Also mist the bottoms and sides of two 4-inch round springform pans. Arrange the squash on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Mist with cooking spray, then season with salt and pepper. Roast the squash until lightly browned and tender, about 25 minutes. Set aside to cool for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, combine the sausage and onion. Saute until the sausage is cooked and the onion is tender and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta, egg, Parmesan, basil and oregano. Set aside. Transfer the cooled squash to a blender, then add the cream. Puree until smooth, then taste and adjust seasonings. Set aside. Use a round biscuit cutter that fits just inside the springform pans to cut 8 rounds from the sheets of pasta. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the pureed squash evenly over the bottom of each springform pan. Set 1 pasta round over the squash in each pan. Spread 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture over the pasta, then spoon 3 tablespoons of the sausage mixture over it. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, then top with another round of pasta. Repeat the layering process until both pans are full. Finish each lasagna with a final round of pasta, a generous amount of squash puree and a liberal sprinkle of mozzarella. Set the pans on a rimmed baking sheet, then bake on the oven’s middle shelf for 40 minutes, or until lightly browned and bubbling. Cool for 10 minutes before setting each lasagna on a serving plate and removing the sides of the pans. MUSSELS IN DIJON-ORANGE SAUCE WITH ARUGULA BY ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press Looking for something fast, easy and a little romantic to cook with your partner this Valentine’s Day? Consider mussels. With a pleasantly briny flavor, mussels pair well with clean, simple flavors, such as fresh herbs with melted butter and lightly cooked onions or leeks, or a sauce made from white wine, heavy cream and garlic. But they also can stand up to more robust partners, such as basil pesto or spicy tomato sauces. However you dress your mussels, they are a breeze to prepare. Start by washing them under cold water. Next, pull out the “beards,” the fibrous strips that stick out from the shells. Meanwhile, in a large pot combine 1⁄4 inch or so of white wine with a generous few tablespoons of melted butter. Bring to a simmer, then add the mussels, cover and cook, shaking the pan frequently, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mussels have opened. Be sure to check on the mussels during cooking. As they open, use a slotted spoon to remove them and set aside while the remaining mussels cook. This prevents those that open first from overcooking. Don’t feel like get fancy with a sauce? The juices left in the pan make a delicious one. Add some fresh herbs and a splash of lemon juice, then pour it over the MATTHEW MEAD | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WITH A PLEASANTLY BRINY FLAVOR, mussels pair well with clean, simple flavors, such as fresh herbs with melted butter and lightly cooked onions or leeks, or a sauce made from white wine, heavy cream and garlic. mussels in serving bowls. Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 2 2 pounds mussels 1 cup white wine 2 cloves garlic, minced 1⁄4 cup chopped shallot Zest and juice of 1 orange 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper 3 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 2 cups packed baby arugula or watercress 1 red chili, thinly sliced (optional) Crusty bread, to serve Scrub the mussels with a coarse brush and remove the beards. Rinse thoroughly. In a large pot over medium heat, combine the wine, garlic, shallots, orange zest and juice, mustard and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the shallot is tender and the wine is fragrant. Add the mussels and cover, cooking over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the mussels open up. Remove the mussels as they open, discarding any that don’t. Stir in the butter until melted, then divide between 2 serving bowls. Top with chives, parsley, arugula and chili slices, if using. Serve hot with hunks of crusty bread.

Sprinkle in the popcorn kernels and give a quick stir with a wooden spoon to coat the kernels in oil. Continue cooking and stirring until the first kernel pops. Once it does, cover the pan and, using oven mitts, grasp the pan by both the handle and the lid, then gently shake the pan (on the heat) to keep the kernels moving as they continue to pop. Do this for about 2 minutes, or until there is a 2-second delay between pops. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the popcorn to a large bowl. Be very careful; the popcorn will be very hot. Drizzle the honey over the popcorn, then use wooden spoons to toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the peanut butter and salt over the popcorn, then toss again to coat.

I have been seeing another woman in a city nearby, and my wife is aware of it. I took my lady friend out for dinner recently while visiting her in her town. A couple from home who know my wife and me were also eating at this restaurant. I greeted them as we walked by their table. The next day, my wife approached me and showed me a picture of me and my date that had been taken by this couple without my knowledge. I was furious about the invasion of privacy. My wife claims I am just angry because I got “caught.” If I were worried about getting caught, I wouldn’t have been in a public restaurant in a city frequented by people who know me. What are your thoughts on people who secretly take photos like this? Do they really think they are doing their civic duty? — VIOLATED IN IOWA DEAR VIOLATED: You have a right to your privacy. If you and your wife have been separated for a year, then with whom you socialize is your own business. The same applies to your wife. I fail to see what kind of “civic duty” this couple was performing by taking a picture of you and your date. Frankly, I think it was in poor taste and served no good purpose. DEAR ABBY DEAR ABBY: I’m 30 and have felt pretty happy with my life. I enjoy my job, my social life, staying fit and extensive stays abroad. I thought I was going along OK, even though there is still room for improvement. My biggest (or most obvious) shortcoming, however, is that I’m not attractive in any way, and guys have never been attracted to me, so any chance at a future with someone is not an option. I thought I was learning to accept it, but it’s harder than I thought — especially because of reactions from other people. Now that I’m older, people look at me with pity or treat me strangely. I don’t know how to handle the constant questioning about whether I have found someone yet. It is not going to happen. Is there something wrong with me? I’m starting to feel like a total loser and complete failure. — LOSER IN LOVE DEAR LOSER IN LOVE: If you are asked whether you have “found someone yet,” tell the person the truth, that Chris Pine hasn’t found YOU yet. There are worse things than singlehood. You have so many positive things going for you in your life, it’s time you recognized it. The person who deserves pity isn’t someone who is single; it’s someone who is trapped in a marriage to a husband she doesn’t love or who treats her badly. Your problem isn’t that you are a “loser”; it’s that you have low self-esteem. You could benefit from talking to a counselor about this, because everyone has something to offer, including you, and for others to appreciate your finer qualities, you need to stop being so hard on yourself.

The request was the second time the defense has asked the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to step in and take the decision on whether to move the trial out of the hands of Judge George O’Toole Jr. The 1st Circuit rejected a similar request last month, before jury selection began. In their new request, Tsarnaev’s lawyers say their review of questionnaires filled out by 1,373 prospective jurors show that 68 percent already believe Tsarnaev is guilty. They said 69 percent have identified some sort of personal connection or allegiance they have bought the collection and placed it on long-term loan to the library. SALE Parks’ archive opening to public at Library of Congress EU signals flexibility on Greek debt demands Feb. 10th WASHINGTON — Rosa Parks, who refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus in 1955, reflected later about how it felt to be treated less than equal and once wrote how tired she was of being “pushed around.” Now her writings are being made available to the public for the first time starting Wednesday at the Library of Congress. Experts say the collection gives a fuller view of a woman remembered by many simply for an iconic image of a nonviolent seamstress who inspired others to act at the dawning of the civil rights era. A years-long legal battle between Parks’ heirs and her friends long kept the collection from public view. But in 2014, philanthropist Howard Buffett BRUSSELS — The European Union is ready to adapt its economic policies to help debt-laden Greece but refuses to make wholesale changes to please the new anti-austerity government. European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said Tuesday that the EU will “have to adapt a certain number of our policies but we are not going to change everything.” His remarks came on the eve of a visit to Brussels by Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, whose government wants to ease the heavy spending cuts it is making in exchange for rescue loans. Tsipras has also said he wants to renegotiate payment of the debt bailout. Greece’s finance minister, however, has said that may not require a write-off of the debt. to the “people, places and/or events” in the case. Blount County Volume Leader with Discount Prices!

Maryville gave new coach Cody Church his first win with the 12-5 victory. Rebels grab 4-AAA title over Bearden BY GRANT RAMEY [email protected] KNOXVILLE — For Maryville, Tuesday night’s game at Bearden was less about what was on the line and more about what had already been decided. Up for grabs between the top boys’ teams in District 4-AAA was the regularseason title. More importantly, the Rebels couldn’t erase from their memories the last meeting with the Bulldogs, an ice-cold 20-point loss on Jan. 6 at home. “The guys were excited because they played so poorly last time and shot it so bad,” Maryville coach Mark Eldridge said. “We thought that we would be better, we just hoped that we could make some shots and have a chance to win at the end.” Nearly word for word, that’s exactly how it played out. Tristan Upchurch had a team-high 14 points and three other Rebels Out of all his debuts in his baseball career, this one was especially memorable for Cody Church. The first-year Maryville College head coach and his team opened the campaign with a 12-5 win over Hiwassee College Tuesday at Scotland Yard. “It’s a different feel being the head coach,” the 27-year old Church told The Daily Times on his first opening day victory as the skipper. “It was exciting. Our guys have been working hard since August and I’m just glad to get it out of the way. It is exciting for me. I’m happy for our team. We showed up and played well.” The Scots wasted no time opening up the season with a strong presence, plating five runs in the first inning off Tigers starter Bryan Woodlief (0-1). After leadoff walks to begin the bottom of the first, shortstop Nick Dean laced an RBI-single past Hiwassee’s diving first baseman to plate Logan Jenkins for the first run. With just one out in the bottom of the first, sophomore designated hitter Greg Vourloumis began his big day and season at the plate in unforgettable fashion. Down 1-2 in the count, the 6-foot3, 190-pounder drove a hanging fastball over the left center field fence for a two-run shot and a 5-0 MC lead. “Leading the season off with a home run is something you dream about,” Vourloumis said. “Off the bat the guys in the dugout heard me say, ‘Oh, goodness,’ like I missed it, but right when I got to first I saw the ball carrying and that I had got all of it. It was a pretty awesome feeling.” The Atlanta, Ga., native went 2-for-4 with the home run, and added a double to mark a career high after hitting .278 in limited time as a freshman.

We did a good job on (defense) getting stops, then offensively, we were just as good as we were defensively.” Bryce Miller had 11 points for Maryville (21-4, 13-1) while Easton Upchurch SEE REBELS, 3B DARYL SULLIVAN | THE DAILY TIMES ALCOA’S KATIE BEAN LOOKS to the basket Tuesday against Kingston’s Rachel Baggett in a District 4-AA game at Alcoa. Tyndall’s warning on State proves prophetic BY DARGAN SOUTHARD [email protected] SEC MEN MISS. ST. 71, Tennessee 66 KNOXVILLE — Donnie Tyndall tried to give the warning. At his Monday press luncheon, the Volunteers first-year head coach MORE INSIDE: State reaches for the Sword against UT. 3B pegged his next opponent, Mississippi State as, “one of the most improved teams” in the SEC despite its subpar record, adding that the Bulldogs are, “playing with a lot of confidence right now,” on the offensive end. By the time the final horn sounded Tuesday night, the Bulldogs had turned Tyndall into a prophet, specifically in regards to their 3-point offense. In its 71-66 victory over UT at Thompson-Bol- ing Arena, Mississippi State shot a season-best 73 percent from 3-point range (8-for-11) — a vast improvement from the 1-for-9 beyond-the-arc performance it churned out in its 61-47 loss to the Vols on Jan. 7. Entering Tuesday, the Bulldogs’ best 3-point percentage night this season arrived on Dec. 23, where Mississippi State (11-11, 4-5 SEC) knocked down 53 percent (8-for-15) of its shots from 3 in a 23-point victory over Jacksonville. “It’s hard (when their shooting well from deep),” said UT senior point guard Josh Richardson, who poured in a career-high 30 points in the loss. “But SEE WARNING, 3B h9OUR.O0ROBLEM4IRE$EALERv Lady T’s down Kingston for share of title 4-AA BAKSETBALL BY WILL ESTEP [email protected] Senior night was a good night for the Alcoa girls’ basketball team. Not only did the Lady Tornadoes pick up the win Tuesday, but they also clinched at least a share of the District 4-AA regular season title forcing Kingston into plenty of turnovers on the way to a 52-38 victory at Alcoa High School. The Lady Tornadoes finished 7-1 in district play, while Christian Academy of Knoxville enters its final game at 6-1. If the Lady Warriors lose to Scott County on Friday, Alcoa will win the title outright. Alcoa (15-10, 7-1 District 4-AA) trailed 12-6 after one quarter but everything started rolling in the next eight minutes as the Lady Tornadoes carried a 27-17 lead into halftime. “I think with senior night it was a little emotional,” Boys ALCOA 63, Kingston 41 Girls ALCOA 52, Kingston 38 ALCOA’S AYDEN GIST (4) goes for a basket Tuesday against Kingston’s Thomas Mathews at Alcoa. Alcoa coach Tonia Johnson said of the slow start. “I think the difference was defense (in the second quarter). I think we got a little bit of a defensive spark and turned some good defense into good offense, and just kept the intensity for eight minutes.” It was senior night for four Lady Tornado seniors, but it was freshman Riley Hicks who took over to finish with 15 points while knocking down two 3-pointers. The second 3-pointer from Hicks gave Alcoa a 17-14 lead with 3:48 left in the second quarter giving the Lady Tornadoes the lead for good. Kingston (14-11, 4-4) turned the ball over several times in the second quarter as Alcoa jumped into the passing lanes. “We tried to switch up how we run some defenses and how we approach a defensive possession,” Johnson said. “The girls really responded to it SEE ALCOA, 3B Michelin® brand tires are engineered to give you and those around you the freedom to drive with confidence.

Scots leadoff hitter Logan Jenkins got on base for his fourth time in four plate appearances to start the bottom of the sixth and scored off of a sharp hit ground ball to deep short by Dean, who collected his second ribbie. Jenkins went 2-for-3 and drew two free bases while scoring a game-high four runs. The transfer from Roane State impressed his teammates in his debut. “Logan is a great addition to the team and is a great ballplayer,” Vourloumis said. “He’s going to be a force at the top of the order for us all season.” The 11-2 Scot lead was more than enough for the MC pitching staff to work with the rest of the way. DARYL SULLIVAN | THE DAILY TIMES MARYVILLE COLLEGE’S ZACK BLONDER takes the throw to first Tuesday in the fourth inning of the Scots’ season opener at Scotland Yard. Despite giving up runs in each of the last three innings, including a solo home run to Randall Coley, who led the Tigers with a 3-for-5 performance at the dish, Tyler Hopkins and Chris Hamilton closed out the season opener. Using a pitching by committee selection, Church deployed nine different pitchers who stranded 13 Tigers. Jeremy Ibarra (1-0) was awarded his first win at Maryville College, as the junior right-hander from Anaheim, Ca., pitched a perfect first inning needing 12 pitches to retire the Tigers top three. Only three runs were charged to the Scots pitching staff, as two runs were a result of errors in the third inning. “We wanted to get everybody out on the mound that way when Friday rolls around they’ve got their feet wet,” Church said. “Jeremy did a great job. When you’re going by committee your first guy has to set the tone because that sets the tone for the entire game. He made it look easy and got some good hitters out. We are really glad to have him on our staff.” Maryville College jumps immediately into USA South play, hosting Piedmont College Friday to start a scheduled three-game series at Scotland Yard.

Brouwer powers Caps past Kings The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Troy Brouwer scored two goals, Braden Holtby stopped 27 shots and the Washington Capitals beat the Los Angeles Kings 4-0 Tuesday night for their second win in eight games. Playing in his 500th NHL WASHINGTON 4, LA Kings 0 career game, Brouwer staked Washington to a 2-0 lead with a goal in each of the first two periods. It was his first multigoal game of the season and only the third with multiple points. Nicklas Backstrom made it 3-0 at 5:50 of the third period following a Los Angeles turnover, and 59 seconds later Eric Fehr converted another Kings miscue into a 4-0 advantage. Holtby, meanwhile, was rarely tested in his sixth shutout of the season and career-high 24th victory. The Capitals were 1-42 in their previous seven outings, allowing at least four goals in five of those games. Their only win in that span was a 4-0 thumping of Pittsburgh. Jonathan Quick had 23 saves for the Kings, 1-62 on the road since Dec. 11. The defending Stanley Cup champions are 21-17-12 overall after opening the season 6-1-1. The Capitals outshot Los Angeles 12-6 in the first period and got the lone goal at 17:11, by Brouwer off a centering pass from Evgeny Kuznetsov. PANTHERS 4, ISLANDERS 2: Jimmy Hayes’ second goal of the game 2:10 into the third period lifted the slumping Florida Panthers to a victory over the New York Islanders. Hayes put a rebound of Nick Bjugstad’s shot past goalie Jaroslav Halak nine seconds into a power play for his 15th goal. Bjugstad also assisted on Hayes’ first-period tying goal. Erik Gudbranson also scored, Brandon Pirri added one into an empty net with 22 seconds left and Al Montoya made 32 saves for the Panthers, 2-6-1 in their past nine — including losses at New Jersey and the New York Rangers in their previous two. Anders Lee scored both goals for Metropolitan Division-leading New York, which has dropped three straight. Halak made 26 saves. An eventful power play led to Lee’s tying goal with 7:15 remaining in the period. Just seconds after Halak stopped Derek MacKenzie’s short-handed break, after a turnover in the Islanders end, Lee deflected in Travis Hamonic’s drive from the right point to make the Panthers pay for a too many men on the ice penalty. Lee has scored four of his 15 goals in the past six games. The Islanders jumped out quickly against the Panthers, who were playing for the second straight night and the third time in four days — all in the New York metropolitan area. Islanders captain John Tavares, in his 400th NHL game, brought the puck into the Florida end and moved it left to Josh Bailey, who found Lee just 1:44 in. DEVILS 2, SENATORS 1: Mike Cammalleri scored the goahead goal early in the third period and the New Jersey Devils extended their best run of the season with a 2-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night. Cory Schneider made 19 saves and Adam Henrique had the other goal for the Devils, who won for the seventh time in 11 games (7-2-2). Curtis Lazar scored for the Senators and Robin Lehner made 17 saves in his third straight start for injured Craig Anderson. Jaromir Jagr did most of the work on Cammalleri’s team-high 17th goal of the season and seventh gamewinner. The big right wing won the puck in the right corner, made a turn into the right circle and found Cammalleri between the circles for a shot over Lehner’s shoulder. WILD 3, BLACKHAWKS 0: Devan Dubnyk stopped 24 shots in his third shoutout since joining Minnesota in mid-January, leading the Wild to their fourth straight win. Mikko Koivu, Jason Zucker and Mikael Granlund each scored for the Wild. Since being acquired by Minnesota in a trade with Arizona, Dubnyk is 6-1 with a 1.57 goals against average. He has four shutouts overall this season. The Blackhawks, fourth in the Western Conference, spent the previous two days in Las Vegas and were outshot 43-24. They haven’t won consecutive games in over a month. SABRES 3, CANADIENS 2: Brian Gionta and the Buffalo Sabres stopped their 14-game losing streak — the longest in team history — by beating the Montreal Canadiens. Gionta, a former Canadiens captain, capped a three-goal first period for the Sabres (15-33-3), who won three of four meetings with Montreal (3215-3) this season. Drew Stafford and Matt Moulson also scored for Buffalo. Brandon Prust and David Desharnais had the goals for the Canadiens, who have lost two in a row at home. The Sabres were three losses short of the NHL record for consecutive defeats set by the 1974-75 Washington Capitals and 1992-93 San Jose Sharks. SPORTS | 3B THE DAILY TIMES Wednesday, February 4, 2015 www.thedailytimes.com REBELS: Bearden girls storm to lead after first and Andrew Petree added 10 each. Austin Duncan led Bearden (25-2, 12-2) with a game-high 22 points, Jason Smith added 10 and Quez Fair scored 8. Fair (24) and Smith (11) combined to scored 35 points in the 60-40 Bearden win at Maryville a month ago, a night when the Rebels shot 27 percent from the field (15 of 55) and didn’t have a scorer reach double-figures. “I thought we did a really good job on Smith and Fair,” Eldridge said. “Last time we played them, both of those guys were really good. Duncan was good tonight, but you really have to pick your poison. And I think the head of their snake is Smith. Once he gets going inside, then the perimeter gets going. “I thought we battled and dug down, doubled him pretty well tonight.” The game was knotted at 48 with six minutes, 40 seconds left in regulation, the Rebels scored 11 of the next 13 to close on a 16-8 run. Bearden led by as many as nine in the first quarter, Maryville led by as many as eight in the second quarter and the Rebels led, 48-44, after the third. “I thought it was a really good high school ballgame,” Eldridge said. “There were runs on both sides and fortunately we got the lead and made some big plays. “They missed a shot or two, we made two or three more. That’s what it came down to. It wound up an eight-point game, but it was a lot closer than that.” Maryville, now 10-0 since that loss to Bearden, is locked into the region tournament after finishing in the top two of the district standings. The Rebels will open the District 4-AAA tour- nament Tuesday night at home. The Lady Rebels open 4-AAA Tournament play at home on Monday. “It (didn’t) really matter if we were (No.) 1 or 2,” Eldridge said. “Next week, the tournament starts. “It’s great to win the district championship, that’s good stuff, but next week is when, really, all the postseason play begins.” BEARDEN 37, LADY REBELS 26: The Maryville girls led 4-AAA leaders Bearden 14-4 after the first but scored just 12 points the rest of the way, as the Lady Bulldogs finished with a perfect 14-0 record in district play and the No. 1 seed.

ALCOA: Tornadoes bid farewell to four seniors FROM 1B tonight. That is one thing that we focused on and they did well.” Senior Cassidy Anderson finished with eight points, Hannah Troutt had seven and senior Lauren Dunn finished with six in her final regular season home game. It was also senior night for Andrea Leonard and Hannah Tate, who is out for the season due to an illness. “They are unbelievable leaders,” Johnson said of the senior class. “They are selfless. They are encouraging and just lead by example.” Tara Shields finished with six points for Alcoa and three of them came when she hit a 3-pointer less than a minute into the fourth quarter extending the lead to 44-30. Katie Bean finished with six points and scored four straight in the fourth to make it a 50-34 game with only 3:35 to play. Kingston’s Kalli Sampson f inished with 12 points and Rachel Layne picked up nine. ALCOA 63, KINGSTON 41: Alcoa (9-16, 4-4) took over in the fourth quarter and pulled away from Kingston to wrap up another win and guarantee a third place finish in the district standings. Kingston (8-16, 0-8) pulled to within 40-35 early in the fourth, and looked to seize more momentum, but Garrett Anderson ended that with a three-point play to make it 43-35. Anderson, who finished with 25 for the game, racked up 12 points in the fourth quarter. He hit a 3-pointer with exactly five minutes left to make it 50-37. It was the final home game for Tornado seniors Daniel Brimer, Jamil Ferguson, Izzy Gilbert and Braxton Dockery.

ADAM LAU, KNOXVILLE NEWS SENTINEL| THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TENNESSEE GUARD ROBERT HUBBS III (3) grabs a rebound against Mississippi State forward Gavin Ware (20) and guard Craig Sword (32) Tuesday in Knoxville. Terrible swift Sword Sophomore puts up 26 points to down Tennessee BY STEVE MEGARGEE SEC MEN’S STANDINGS AP Sports Writer KNOXVILLE — Mississippi State’s Craig Sword says he’s feeling fine as long as his team keeps playing the way it did Tuesday. Sword scored 26 points to continue his successful comeback from preseason back surgery as Mississippi State relied on sizzling 3-point shooting to beat Tennessee, 71-66. “Anytime we get a win, I’m (feeling) 100 percent,” Sword quipped. After undergoing back surgery in October, Sword missed the Bulldogs’ first five games and scored in double figures just once in his first 13 appearances. The sophomore guard now has averaged 18 points per game over his last five contests. “It’s a day-to-day process with him,” Mississippi State coach Rick Ray said. “Sometimes he doesn’t practice. Sometimes we don’t know if he’s going to be able to go in games until he gets out there and warms up. But (Sword) is really one of the toughest players I’ve ever coached. He goes out there and gives effort every single time, whether it’s in practice or in games.” Mississippi State (11-11, 4-5 SEC) shot 55.8 percent (19 of 34) overall and 72.7 percent (8 of 11) from 3-point range to end a string of 16 consecutive February losses. The Bulldogs hadn’t won a February game since beating South Carolina 69-67 in overtime on Feb. 29, 2012. Sword and Fred Thomas made sure the Bulldogs ended their recent February misery. Sword shot 7 of 8 overall and 4 of 5 from Kentucky 9-0 22-0 Texas A&M 6-2 15-5 *Arkansas 5-3 16-5 LSU 5-3 16-5 Georgia 5-4 14-7 Tennessee 5-4 13-8 Ole Miss 5-3 14-7 *Florida 5-3 12-9 Miss St 4-5 11-11 Alabama 3-5 13-8 *S Carolina 2-6 11-9 Auburn 2-6 10-11 *Vanderbilt 1-7 11-10 Missouri 1-7 7-14 Tuesday No. 1 Kentucky 69, Georgia 58 Miss State 71, Tennessee 66 *Florida at Vanderbilt *S Carolina at Arkansas *Late Tuesday Today Texas A&M at Ole Miss Missouri at Alabama Thursday Auburn at LSU W22 W6 L1 L1 L2 L1 W3 W2 W2 L2 W1 L4 L7 L7 beyond the arc. Thomas scored 20 points while shooting 5 of 7 overall and 4 of 5 on 3-pointers. “We let them get hot early,” said Tennessee guard Josh Richardson, who scored a career-high 30 points. “Mississippi State’s a team where if you let them do that, it’s going to be rough.” The Bulldogs led 63-61 in the final minute when Tennessee’s Derek Reese drove into the lane and missed a dunk attempt. Thomas got the rebound, raced to the other end of the floor and converted a three-point play with 52 seconds left. Mississippi State’s lead wouldn’t drop below three points again. Mississippi State found a way to win despite attempting 26 fewer shots than Tennessee, which had 20 offensive rebounds and out- scored the Bulldogs 17-6 in secondchance points. The Volunteers shot 41.7 percent (25 of 60) overall 25 percent (5 of 20) on 3-pointers. But the Bulldogs went 25 of 35 on free throws, while Tennessee was 11 of 17. “Our team’s margin of error is so, so small that if we don’t have the right mentality and we’re not on razor’s edge, there’s no one in our league we can beat,” Tennessee coach Donnie Tyndall said. STAT LINES: Although Richardson scored a career-high 30 points, he also had seven turnovers. ... Since losing its first three SEC games, Mississippi State has won four of its last six. ... Mississippi State had made just 11 baskets in a 61-47 loss to Tennessee on Jan. 7. In Tuesday’s’ rematch, the Bulldogs had 12 baskets by halftime. QUOTABLE: “Our guys are steadily staying the course,” Ray said. “ I give a lot of credit to our team because a lot of people would have pitched it in and (given) up after our start to the SEC season, but to those guys’ credit and their character, they still continue to do the things we ask them to do in order to become a better team.” MISSISSIPPI ST. 71, TENNESSEE 66 MISSISSIPPI ST.

I think they were hurting us from the corners real bad today.” All of that downtown production was generated through junior guards Craig Sword and Fred Thomas, who each were 4-for-5 from deep and accounted for 56 of Mississippi State’s 71 points. Neither player was a 3-point threat in the two team’s first matchup of the season — Sword played just 22 minutes that night as he slowly returned from a bulging disk, while Thomas missed all six of his downtown attempts in the 14-point loss to UT (13-8, 5-4). But the tandem quickly made up for lost time in round two. Midway through first half, Thomas and Sword connected on three 3-pointers in less than two minutes of game clock, transforming Mississippi State’s then 15-11 deficit into a 20-17 advantage. “Two things with that obviously,” Tyndall said in regards to a slew of 3-pointers coming in a short span. “It makes your team kind of drop their head and get down a little bit, and it gives them a great deal of confidence on the road. They’re able to answer the bell if you will. “To their credit, we’ve been in those situations. We’ve done that a bunch ourselves, but to their credit, they did that tonight.” After intermission, the duo then pressed the replay button. With his team tied at 41, and a little more than 12 minutes remaining, Sword pulled up from deep to splash his first. Less than a minute later, same result. Thomas followed suit to cap off the riveting stretch, and hand the Bulldogs a 50-43 lead with 10:27 to go. “When you let guys let Fred get their head or Craig Sword get their head up, it’s going to be a tough night,” Richardson said. Even after Richardson went on a scoring spree late in the second half, Rick Ray’s squad countered from deep. Just moments after Richardson scored his 19th point in less than 11 minutes to trim UT’s deficit to only two, Sword calmly pulled up and buried his final 3-pointer of the night to deflate any orange-clad momentum. With 4:40 to go, Sword’s trey supplied the Bulldogs with a 61-57 advantage, which sent a large contingent of Vols fans towards Where Fun is Always Brewing the exit and helped put the finishing touches on Mississippi State’s first win in Knoxville since Feb. 26, 2011. “We let them get hot early,” Richardson said, “and they did a good job of keeping attacking. “They’ve been playing well the last couple weeks.” MICE MUNCHING?

So we’re sitting on the side of the road for about three hours.” Just wait, it gets worse. “Then our (defensive) bus breaks down,” Martin continued, “the air conditioning stops working. It was a horrible trip. “In the middle of the summer, too,” That’s why today, on national signing day, when Martin makes his commitment to Tennessee official by signing to become a Vol, he won’t take anything for granted. Not even the air conditioning. “It really does make you appreciate it,” Martin said. Martin, a four-star cornerback by Rivals.com and considered the No. 1 junior college cornerback in the 2015 class, played one year at Overton High School in Nashville and was helped by Tennessee in leaving high school early and getting to Northeastern Oklahoma A&M early, all in an effort to have three years of FBS eligibility left upon his exit. But getting from Point A to Point B was far from a straight line. “JuCo’s not easy,” Martin said. “Man, you don’t get the luxuries of a Division I. Most JuCos, for kids, are far away from home.” For Martin, Miami, Okla., was “nine, 10 hours” from home. Now his new home will be just a couple hours east. Martin took his official visit to Knoxville over the weekend, a month removed from committing to the Vols on Dec. 31. “It was a good time for my family,” Martin said, describing the weekend as a “bonding” opportunity as a player already committed to the school, all the while continuing to work on adding other names to the class through peer recruiting.

One he earned the hard way, in tiny JuCo stadiums reached only by team bus. “(They’re) less than high school crowds,” Martin said. Still, motivation was never a problem, even if few people were watching. “I’m a really, really high self-motivator,” he said. “I’m not hard to motivate. It’s not hard for me to motivate myself.” Which makes sense, when Martin compares his style of play to another highly motivated corner. “I’m like a Richard Sherman type of corner,” said Martin, who has Sherman’s build, listed at 6-foot-2, 192 pounds. “I like to get in the receiver’s head.” Signing day: Ivey, Marshall lead best uncommitted recruits The Associated Press Spend a few hours on national signing day watching teenagers pick hats in their high school gymnasiums and you might find it hard to believe that the vast majority of top football prospects have long ago made their choice of colleges.

NORB CAOILI | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEATTLE SEAHAWKS’ FAN NORB CAOILI grabs his head in the final moments of the Super Bowl as the Seahawks lose to the New England Patriots Sunday in Glendale, Ariz. Sleepless in Seattle Days later, Seahawks fans still struggling with loss BY GENE JOHNSON The Associated Press SEATTLE — As shocking as it was, the Seattle Seahawks’ last-minute loss to the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl Sunday was probably not even the worst loss in the city’s sports history. Seattle did lose an entire NBA franchise, after all, when the SuperSonics FINAL NFL power rankings. 2B NFL DRAFT order. 2B up and moved to Oklahoma City. At least the Seahawks will be playing again next season. But the grief, anger and bewilderment felt by many Seahawks fans nevertheless shows only mild signs of abating, even days later. Many say they’re certain the decision to pass from the 1-yard line — instead of handing off to bruising running back Marshawn Lynch — will forever haunt the Northwest the way previous sporting gaffes defined other cities. “I’ll be 90 years old and still thinking about this game,” said Norb Caoili, a longtime season-ticket holder from Renton. “The history of sports is defined by moments like this, ‘I’ll be 90 years old and still thinking about this game.’ Norb Caolil Seahawks season ticket holder where heroes rise and save the day, or where teams collapse on the biggest stages. It’s always going to be a part of the fabric of Seattle, and that’s tough to swallow.” Caoili, 45, is the force behind NorbCam, a YouTube channel that features videos of himself — wearing a green wig, Seahawks headband, and blue-and-green face paint — reacting to the action during Seahawks games. The videos have been viewed an improbable number of times, making him a prominent voice among Hawks fans. For him, the way the Seahawks lost is what makes it so tough: Moments earlier, the team seemed on the brink of a miraculous victory, with receiver Jermaine Kearse making an inconceivable, bobbling, falling catch despite great coverage from Patriots rookie Malcolm Butler. It was a gift from the football gods, “divine intervention” that signaled a certain Muschamp aids Auburn in signing-day surge BY RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Football Writer On national signing day, there is a good chance Florida fans will be angry with Will Muschamp again. The former Gators coach who was fired last season and hired as Auburn’s defensive coordinator two weeks after he coached his final game for Florida has the Tigers in position to make a signing day surge. Linebacker Byron Cowart of Seffner, Fla., rated the No. 1 prospect in the country by Rivals and ESPN, is scheduled to pick between Auburn and Florida on Wednesday, when high school football players can make those verbal commitments binding by signing a national letter of intent. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AUBURN DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR WILL MUSCHAMP watches before the Outback Bowl Jan. 1 in Tampa, Fla. And Cowart’s not the only blue chipper from the Sunshine State expected to choose between Auburn and Florida. Offensive tackle Martez Ivey from Apopka, Where Service Matters Most said Mike Farrell, national recruiting director for Rivals.com. “When you compare the two situations, Brady Hoke was on his way out (at Michigan) and everybody abandoned ship. And at Florida all these big-name kids are still interested until Muschamp got fired. Then they lost interest. And then Muschamp gets hired at Auburn and all of sudden Auburn’s the hot team.” Cowart showed no interest in Auburn until Muschamp made the 300-mile move northwest from Gainesville. “We’re real locked in,” Cowart told ESPN.com after a visit to Auburn in January. “(Muschamp) made everything feel like home.

Caoili’s video from the Super Bowl — tickets $2,700 apiece, airfare and lodging $1,400 — shows him chanting a mantra for Lynch to get the ball: “Give it to him again, give it to him again, give it to him again.” The decision to pass, then, becomes not just “the worst play call I’ve seen in the history of football,” as Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith described it, but an affront to the gods, a sort of cardinal sin punished by instant karma: Butler’s goal-line interception, and New England’s fourth championship of the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick era. It was an epic failure, on par with the ground ball through Bill Buckner’s legs that helped sink the 1986 Red Sox or the “wide right” field goal attempt in 1991 that proved to be the first of four consecutive Super Bowl losses for the Buffalo Bills. “Emotionally, it would have been better to lose 43-8,” Caoili said, referring to the score by which the Seahawks beat Denver in last year’s Super Bowl. “There’s nothing worse than having it in your hand and losing it all.” Coupon good from 1-1-15 through 2-28-15 2104 W.

The technology aims to liberate future generations from inherited diseases, but critics say it crosses a fundamental scientific boundary and could lead to “designer babies.” The U.K.’s House of Commons voted 382-178 in favor of legislation to license these experiments. If approved in the House of Lords, Britain would become the world’s first nation to allow genetic modifications in human embryos. “This is a bold step to take, but it is a considered and informed step,” Health Minister Jane Ellison told the Commons. The technology is completely different from that used to create genetically modified foods, where scientists typically select individual genes to be transferred from one species into another. But critics say it crosses a red line, since changes made to embryos will be passed on to future generations, with the potential for unforeseen consequences. While this legislation was drafted specifically to grant permission only for certain specified techniques, critics fear it will encourage scientists to push for other experiments in the future. The protests are “about BEN BIRCHALL, PA | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A SCIENTIST WORKS during an IVF process on Aug. 11, 2008. protecting children from the severe health risks of these unnecessary techniques and protecting everyone from the eugenic designer-baby future that will follow from this,” said David King, director of the secular watchdog group Human Genetics Alert. The technology altering a human egg or embryo before transferring it into a mother with defects in her mitochondria, the energyproducing structures outside a cell’s nucleus. These genetic defects can result in diseases including muscular dystrophy, heart, kidney and liver failure and severe muscle weakness. Scientists would remove the nucleus DNA from the egg of the prospective mother and insert it into a donor egg from which the nucleus DNA has been removed. The resulting embryo would have the nucleus DNA from its parents but the mitochondrial DNA from the donor. This can be done two ways — before or after fertilization — in the techniques approved by the Commons. Scientists say more than 99 percent of the DNA in the resulting child would come from its parents, with a tiny fraction coming from the donor egg. Britain’s Chief Medical To vaccinate or not? Debate tests first-time White House hopefuls Officer, Dr. Sally Davies, said the law would give women with mitochondrial disease “the opportunity to have children without passing on devastating genetic disorders.” Britain has long been a leader in reproductive technology; the world’s first baby from in vitro fertilization, Louise Brown, was born in the U.K. in 1978. U.S. regulators are moving more slowly: Scientists at a U.S. Food and Drug Administration meeting on the techniques last year warned it could take decades to determine if they are safe. Meanwhile, experts say the techniques are likely being used elsewhere, such as in China and Japan, but are mostly unregulated. Second Harper Lee novel to be published BY JULIE PACE BY HILLEL ITALI AP White House Correspondent AP National Writer WASHINGTON — For a pair of first-time presidential hopefuls, the sudden injection of the childhood vaccine debate into the 2016 campaign is a lesson in how unexpected issues can become stumbling blocks. Long-held positions can look different under the glare of the national spotlight. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, both weighing bids for the GOP presidential nomination, struggled this week to articulate their views on the emotionally charged vaccination controversy. Christie, in the midst of a three-day trip to the United Kingdom, canceled plans to speak to reporters Tuesday after his comments a day earlier caused a stir. “Is there something you don’t understand about, ‘No questions’?” Christie snapped at reporters Tuesday. While the vaccination debate has long stoked passions, the matter has taken on new resonance amid a frightening measles outbreak that has sickened more than 100 people across the U.S. and in Mexico. The outbreak has revived the discussion about parents who choose not to vaccinate their children, some out of fear that vaccines can lead to autism and developmental disorders — a claim that has been vigorously debunked by medical researchers. NEW YORK — “To Kill a Mockingbird” will not be Harper Lee’s only published book after all. Publisher Harper announced Tuesday that “Go Set a Watchman,” a novel the Pulitzer Prizewinning author completed in the 1950s and put aside, will be released July 14. Rediscovered last fall, “Go Set a Watchman” is essen- HOW LONG WILL IT GO ON? It’s unclear whether the vaccine issue will have a long shelf life in a White House campaign that is only just beginning. But the ways prospective candidates handle unanticipated issues can help determine whether those subjects blow over or become nagging distractions that contenders can’t shake. “Every day you want to go out Harper Lee Lee’s “Go Set a Watchman” was written and set aside in the 1950s. MOLLY RILEY | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DR. ANTHONY FAUCI (RIGHT), director, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, along with other top government health officials, testifies before the House Energy and Commerce subcommittee looking into the effectiveness of vaccines in the wake of a measles outbreak and the exceptionally severe flu season, Tuesday on Capitol Hill in Washington. Shown from left are Dr. Anne Schuchat, director, National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; Dr. Karen Midthun, director, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, U.S. Food and Drug Administration; Dr. Robin Robinson, director Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and Dr. Fauci. with a message to voters, and every day there are a dozen trapdoors you don’t want to fall into,” said Robert Gibbs, a top adviser for both of Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns. “If you look at Chris Christie and Rand Paul , they fell into the trapdoors yesterday.” Christie’s and Paul’s assertions that parents should have some choice in basic vaccinations have put other potential 2016 contenders on the spot on a topic that was largely absent from political discussions until this week and does not break down along party lines. VOICING SUPPORT Three potential GOP candidates voiced their support for vaccines Tuesday. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida said there was “absolutely no medical science or data that links vaccination to autism.” Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said it was “irresponsible for leaders to undermine the public’s confidence in vaccinations that have been tested and proven to protect public health.” And Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s office said he encouraged parents to have their children vaccinated as he had. Likely Democratic candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton took to Twitter, saying, “The science is clear: The earth is round, the sky is blue, and #vaccineswork. Let’s protect all our kids.” Obama urged parents this week to get their children vaccinated and said the science on the benefits was “indisputable.” Study: Many herbal supplements aren’t what the label says BY MARY ESCH The Associated Press ALBANY, N.Y. — Bottles of Walmart-brand echinacea, an herb said to ward off colds, were found to contain no echinacea at all. GNC-brand bottles of St. John’s wort, touted as a cure for depression, held rice, garlic and a tropical houseplant, but not a trace of the herb. In fact, DNA testing on hundreds of bottles of store-brand herbal supplements sold as treatments for everything from memory loss to prostate trouble found that four out of five contained none of the herbs on the label. Instead, they were packed with cheap fillers such as wheat, rice, beans or houseplants. Based on the testing commissioned by his office, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said Tuesday he has sent letters to the four major store chains involved — GNC, Target, Walmart and Walgreens — demanding that they immediately stop selling adulterated or mislabeled dietary supplements. Schneiderman said the supplements pose serious risks. People who have allergies or are taking certain medications can suffer dangerous reactions from herbal concoctions that contain substances not listed on the label, he MARK LENNIHAN | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A WOMAN WALKS PAST a GNC store Tuesday in New York. said. The herbal supplement industry criticized the method used to analyze the samples and raised questions about the reliability of the findings. Walmart spokesman Brian Nick said the company is reaching out to suppliers and will take appropriate action. Walgreen pledged to cooperate with the attor- ney general, who asked the store chains for detailed information on production and quality control. “We take these issues very seriously and as a precautionary measure, we are in the process of removing these products from our shelves as we review this matter further,” Walgreen spokesman James Graham said. GNC said it, too, will cooperate, but spokeswoman Laura Brophy said: “We stand by the quality, purity and potency of all ingredients listed on the labels of our private-label products.” Target said it can’t comment without reviewing the full report. tially a sequel to “To Kill a Mockingbird,” although it was finished earlier. Reactions ranged from euphoria (Oprah Winfrey issued a statement saying, “I couldn’t be happier if my name was Scout”) to skepticism that the new book will be of the same quality as “Mockingbird.” Biographer Charles J. Shields noted that Lee was a “beginning author” when she wrote “Watchman.” The 304-page book will be Lee’s second, and her first new work in print in more than 50 years, among the longest gaps in history for a major writer. “In the mid-1950s, I completed a novel called ‘Go Set a Watchman,’” the 88-yearold Lee said in a statement issued by Harper. “It features the character known as Scout as an adult woman, and I thought it a pretty decent effort. My editor, who was taken by the flashbacks to Scout’s childhood, persuaded me to write a novel (what became ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’) from the point of view of the young Scout. “I was a first-time writer, so I did as I was told. I hadn’t realized it (the original book) had survived, so was surprised and delighted when my dear friend and lawyer Tonja Carter discovered it. After much thought and hesitation, I shared it with a handful of people I trust and was pleased to hear that they considered it worthy of publication. I am humbled and amazed that this will now be published after all these years.” Financial terms were not disclosed. “Watchman” will be published in the United Kingdom by William Heinemann, an imprint of Penguin Random House.

The proposed project is located along Webb Road in The City of Townsend and within Blount County. The Webb Road waterline extension consists of approximately 14,000 LF of 8” waterline to be constructed along Lovers Lane and Webb Road. The extension will provide alternate water feed to the City of Townsend by connecting the existing 16” waterline on Lovers Lane to the existing 8” waterline located at the intersection of Webb Road and Lamar Alexander Highway. The portions of the waterline within the floodplain (Carr Creek Tributaries) extend approximately 2100+ beginning at the intersection of Lovers Lane and in a southern direction along Webb Road; approximately 250+ linear feet of waterline between Townsend Church of God and Berry Williams Road; and approximately 530+ extending in a southerly direction between Musket Ridge Drive and the Intersection of Webb Road and Lamar Alexander Highway. This section of the waterline will be attached to the new bridge along Webb Road crossing over the Little River. Total area within floodplain is approximately 1 acre+. The proposed project is located within the Right-of-Way of Webb Road within the City of Townsend. The City of Townsend has considered the following alternatives and mitigation measures to be taken to minimize adverse impacts and to restore and preserve natural and beneficial values: 1) There are only temporary adverse environmental consequences anticipated from the waterline construction within the floodplain; however, to minimize these, every effort will be made to manage water runoff and erosion through the use of silt barriers and trenches where applicable. 2) Upon construction completion, the disturbed areas will be sown with native type plantings to restore and preserve the area's natural and beneficial values.

Later, Cy tried to recoup in a penny game. But Ed, the club expert, was there. He regularly takes Cy’s money. Ed was declarer at 6NT. He took the ace of hearts and then the A-K of spades. When West showed out, down one looked certain, but dummy next led a club. Cy, East, played low, and Ed’s queen won. Then came five diamond tricks. Cy pitched two hearts and a club. Ed threw a spade and, on the last diamond, his king of hearts. What do you say? ANSWER: Slam is possible, perhaps certain. To flash a slam signal and get partner’s cooperation, jump-shift to two spades. At your next turn you’ll bid 3NT, saying that your slam interest was based on a strong, balanced hand. If partner has any extra values — K 7, Q J 7 6 5, A 3 2, K J 2 — he’ll go on. If he opened on K 7, J 7 6 5 4, A Q 3, K 3 2, he’ll stop. South dealer Neither side vulnerable NORTH K 10 2 Q 7 A Q 10 9 8 K 7 5 LOW SPADE Dummy next led the queen of hearts, and the Cynic could turn in his sword. If he threw a spade, Ed would have five diamonds, four spades, two hearts and a club. When Cy bared his ace of clubs, Ed discarded his last low spade, led a club from dummy to Cy’s ace, and won the last two tricks with the queen of spades and the king of clubs. Our penny game is pay-as-you-go. Cy had to pay off before he went out the door. DAILY QUESTION You hold: A Q 5 4 3 A K K J 5 Q 9 4. Your partner opens one heart. The next player passes.

You often feel as if you stumble into one obstacle after another, but you will have the resources to pull yourself out of any potential quicksand. ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ You will be coming off of an unusually busy period, where you felt as though you were going from one problematic area to another. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ You could be in a position where you want to break away from it all. On some level, your reaction to pressure is part of what causes so many challenging situations. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ You have a lot to say, and you are going to say it. The problem lies in the fact that no one is likely to really absorb the meaning behind your words. Y CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★ You are full of energy and fun; however, your finances could spiral out of control. Some form of overindulgence is likely to rear its ugly head. You probably won’t even thinking about what you are doing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★★ You might be running on fumes, but you’ll be enjoying every moment. It wouldn’t hurt to stop and relish this period. If you have something of significance to do, do it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You might want to get away from your daily routine. Choose a relaxing activity that you enjoy. Consider taking a nap or going to a movie. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★★ Friends surround you, which will make it easy to enjoy yourself and get into the moment. You might be questioning what would best to do under the circumstances. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★ Realize that you are in the limelight and your actions will be observed. Even if you believe otherwise, the truth will reveal itself soon enough. Do only what you must today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★★ Reach out to someone at a distance who means a lot to you. Make time to catch up on this person’s news. You might want to think carefully about some of what you are hearing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ An associate or loved one is likely to take charge. Kick back and enjoy a day off. Of course it will be hard to release your need for control, but if you don’t, you could have a power play on your hands. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★★ Defer to others, and welcome a conversation. Your friendly, outgoing personality tends to melt barriers, which allows more give-and-take. Keep it easy and relaxed. It is important to have a few calm hours to yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ Pace yourself, and know that you have a lot to do. You could be overwhelmed by all the choices you have. Realize that this is not the kind of day that you’ll want to make a decision.

Knight No further information about his condition was immediately available, Los Angeles County sheriff’s Officer John Gardner said. Knight’s attorney David Kenner said he was on the way to the hospital to see his client but had no further details. Knight wore orange jail attire at the court appearance where he entered not guilty pleas to four felonies, including hitand-run charges, filed after the Death Row Records founder struck two men with his pickup truck last week. The 49-year-old Knight could face life in prison if convicted. Knight is charged with killing Terry Carter, 55, and attempting to kill Cle “Bone” Sloan, 51, in a burger stand parking lot after an argument. Hollywood and Havana inch closer LOS ANGELES — Fermin Rojas was thick into filming his documentary on Cuban artists in Havana when a small wire connecting a camera to a monitor snapped. It took three days to find another. For years, a small contingent of U.S. directors and producers has managed to legally travel and film in Cuba despite the U.S. embargo against the island, navigating a maze of ever-changing U.S. Treasury Department regulations to get approval. Under President Barack Obama’s new Cuba regulations, experts and filmmakers say their work could become considerably easier. 10B | CLASSIFIEDS THE DAILY TIMES | thedailytimes.com/classifieds Wednesday, February 4, 2015 t8FTU#SPBEXBZ.BSZWJMMF5/ DEAL THE BIG GAME SALE GOING ON!!
