Murder suspect nabbed 

Woman found at motel in Calhoun

The woman accused of fatally 

stabbing her ex-husband in 

February in Murray County was 

arrested in a Calhoun motel 

Thursday evening, Murray County 

Sheriff Howard Ensley said. 

Rhonda Dilynn (Young) 

Sosebee, 44, is charged with murder 

after officials found her at the 

Oglethorpe Inn on Red Bud Road 

near I-75 just before 7 p.m.,Ensley 

said.

Whitfield County Schools 

Superintendent Katie Brochu said 

Thursday that part-time employees, 

including teachers, can apply for 

full- or part-time jobs next year. 

In a letter being sent this week to 

part-time employees, Brochu mentions 

“uncertainties related to the 

budget, staffing 

allotments and 

other needs” and 

said she regrets 

that “at this time 

we are unable to 

extend your agreement 

of employment 

for the 2009- 

10 school year.” 

However, that 

does not mean that none of those 

employees will be hired back, said 

Brochu, who described the letter as 

“a courtesy.” 

“The majority of those (staff) 

reductions will be absorbed through 

retirement,attrition,or the redistribution 

of staff members throughout the 

district,”according to a press release 

issued Wednesday. “...Part-time 

workers are being reminded of the 

agreement that has always been in 

place; that there is a chance they may 

Road, Chatsworth, several times in 

the back at his home sometime 

between 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 12 and 

6 p.m. on Feb. 13, officials have 

said. Young was found dead at his 

home by a friend who had not been 

able to contact him. 

Because the investigation is 

ongoing, Ensley said he would not 

give details of Sosebee’s arrest or 

how officials knew she was at the 

motel. 

“We’re still at the scene where 

we arrested her... searching her 

motel room,”he said around 8 p.m. 

Thursday. “Myself, GBI agent Joe 

Montgomery and U.S. Marshals 

not be rehired in August.” 

“At this time we don’t think we 

will have any layoffs,”said Whitfield 

County Schools spokesman Eric 

Beavers. Not bringing back a parttime 

employee isn’t considered a 

“layoff,”Beavers said. 

Some county school teachers 

were not reassured, telling The Daily 

Citizen they believe several part-time 

positions are going to be cut. 

Brochu offered no details about 

staffing for the next school year,saying 

that could not be determined 

until she had more information about 

state funding. 

Brochu said changes to the state 

requirements for class size will 

reduce the number of teachers needed. 

Shrinking levels of state funding 

will force cuts. In the press release 

issued Wednesday, school officials 

said they expect state funding for 

34.5 fewer full-time teaching positions 

and 13 fewer paraprofessionals. 

Southeast High School Principal 

Alan Long said there has been a 

standing practice that openings are 

offered to full-time staff before parttime 

workers apply for them. Parttime 

staff are hired only as needed,

(officials who Ensley asked to help 

with the search) arrested her.” 

Sosebee was being transported 

to the Murray County jail 

Thursday evening where she will 

await a court date, Ensley said. 

Sosebee and Young had been 

divorced for about a year following 

an eight-year marriage, during 

which time law enforcement officers 

had responded to several 

domestic disturbance calls between 

the two. 

Sosebee was charged with terroristic 

threats and had a probation 

violation warrant issued for her on 

Feb. 10. She is currently serving

green space on Crawford 

Street across from Harmon 

Field.” 

“I noticed that you are 

seeking nominees for 

Educator of the Year. I would 

like to nominate the boys at 

the Tunnel Hill Barber Shop. 

They’re about as smart a 

people as you will ever run 

across.” 

“Why does Murray High 

have so many assistant principals? 

And when we cut the 

budget, why don’t they start 

at the top?” 

“Jimmy, there is nothing 

like admitting to being 

biased in print in the newspaper, 

is there?” 

Editor’s note: Huh? 

“I’d like to applaud Vickie 

Reed and the school board 

for building North Murray 

High School. It was in the 

best interests of our school 

children to get out of 5-A 

and out of the lousy building 

that Murray High School is.” 

“Watch your speed going 

through Resaca on U.S. 41 or 

I-75. It is a speed trap.” 

“The man who said he 

had lived in Murray County 

for 80 years and didn’t know 

there was cockfighting needs 

to wake up and smell the 

money.” 

“I think Mr. Espy is right. 

Legalizing illegals would 

help us all. Then they would 

have to pay taxes, too.” 

“The Democratic-controlled 

U.S. Congress on 

Tuesday approved a $410 

billion bill to fund most of 

the government through 

Sept. 30. Spend,spend spend 

— we will never see day 

light again! More spending 

doesn't fix anything.” 

“Since the Teen Resource 

Center has been closed 

where can teenagers go to 

get free contraceptives and 

health-related advice?” 

“The Varnell police would 

have more luck with their 

road blocks at night rather 

than at 4 p.m. on 

Wednesday.” 

“Most of the people who 

speak in your forum speak 

before they think. That’s why 

they say stupid things.” 

“If you had a child 

hooked on alcohol or had a 

loved one killed by someone 

driving drunk, you would 

feel differently. And I would 

never vote for a mayor, or 

councilman or commissioner 

who voted to put more alcohol 

on the ballot.” 

“Animal Control needs 

more money and people need 

to keep their animals on 

leashes. That is the law.” 

“Parents need to start disciplining 

their kids. Teachers 

are having so much trouble 

trying to teach kids who are 

unruly.” 

T ODAY ’S FORUM 

“Why is Mohawk laying 

off employees and brining in 

temps? C’mon! With temps 

they don’t have to pay insurance.” 

“We need a constitutional 

convention and we need it 

soon.” 

“Maybe Mrs. Gould is 

researching her decisions 

and the other board members 

are not.” 

“People that don’t smoke 

get cancer too. Explain that 

one to me.” 

“As it ever been put to a 

vote about the new high 

school being built near 

Prater’s Mill? And does it 

have to be built right now.” 

Editor’s note: The 

school board voted last 

year to build the school. 

The school board is choosing 

to push ahead with construction 

of the school. 

“I wish people wouldn’t 

blame the convenience store 

workers for the price of cigarettes 

going up. It’s a federal 

law. Think of it as a great 

time to quit smoking.” 

“Will Katie Brochu be 

taking a pay cut like the 

superintendent in Dalton? 

She is way overpaid.” 

“Obama didn’t say he 

would cut out all earmarks. 

He said he would reform 

them.” 

“When I was in school we 

had one teacher in a classroom. 

Now we have parapros 

in a lot of the classrooms. 

Why don’t we get rid of the 

parapros and save that 

money?” 

“Nathan Deal represents 

the people of North Georgia. 

He voted their will every 

time against the bailout 

package, not like Isakson 

and Chambliss.” 

“I can only hope that the 

comment about schools cutting 

payroll was “good 

news” was said sarcastically. 

That’s terrible news.” 

“I cannot stand Bill 

O’Reilly and would not read 

his article for anything. I 

can’t stand that airbag Rush 

Limbaugh either.” 

“Mr. Espy, have you lost 

your mind? Amnesty for illegal 

immigrants? I guess your 

job is secure.” 

“Mr. Espy, would you 

explain you position on 

amnesty for illegal aliens in 

the forum?” 

Editor’s note: It would 

take too much room. I have 

written about it in my column 

before. I will do so 

again soon. 

“I heard that if Obama 

hadn’t signed that budget bill 

that it would have shut the 

government down completely 

and Congress wouldn’t 

have been able to do anything. 

It sounds to me like he 

had to do it.” 

“Instead of cutting education 

during this depression, 

why not cut the judicial system? 

Cut out the courtappointed 

attorneys for 

lowlifes.” 

“In 50 days Barack 

Obama is already the biggest 

out-and-out liar in American 

history.”

CHATSWORTH — A 

man charged with taking 

part in the killing 

and dismembering 

of a dog in Murray 

County has been 

released from jail. 

Jeffery Fuller, 

50, 130 Greyland 

Farm Road, was 

released on an 

“own recognizance” 

bond on 

Wednesday by 

Fuller 

Judge Cindy 

Morris in Murray 

County Superior Court. 

Unable to make bond, he 

had been in jail since the 

alleged killing took place 

on Jan. 20. 

Co-defendant Richard 

Charles Roach said in 

Whitfield County Superior 

Court on March 6 that 

Fuller “didn’t have nothing 

*60 mo. at 10% plus tax and title. 

DALTON, GA 

to do with (the killing).” 

“That doesn’t mean his 

case is dismissed,” said 

District Attorney Kermit 

McManus, who did add that 

Roach’s testimony regarding 

Fuller was taken 

into account by 

Morris. 

Formal charges 

against Fuller and 

co-defendant 

Randall Blaylock, 

54, 130 Greyland 

Farm Road, have 

not been filed in 

Superior Court, 

McManus said, 

although they were 

charged by the Murray 

County Sheriff’s Office 

with aggravated cruelty to 

animals. 

Roach pleaded guilty to 

violating his forgery probation 

from Whitfield County 

and also to taking part in 

killing the dog. He was sentenced 

to one year in the 

Murray County Jail.

S UBMITTED BY THE 

W HITFIELD-M URRAY 

H ISTORICAL S OCIETY 

Whitfield-Murray 

Historical Society has 

appointed Erik Gallman as 

its new executive secretary. 

Gallman is a 1998 graduate 

of Murray County High 

School and obtained a bachelor’s 

of science education 

degree from Kennesaw State 

University. He taught eighth 

grade at Bagley Middle 

School and is owner-operator 

of Cohutta Springs 

Greenhouse. 

Gallman was attracted to 

the position for several reasons. 

He is interested in local 

history. Last year he organized 

a school reunion for 

Hall’s Chapel, a Murray 

County school that closed in 

1954. He also paints as a 

hobby and particularly 

enjoys painting historical 

subjects. 

Gallman enjoys historical 

research and writing and 

looks forward to working on 

the newsletter and quarterly. 

Gardening is another interest. 

He likes working with 

plants and hopes to spruce up 

the grounds at Crown 

Gardens and Archives. 

Gallman also plans to 

renovate the inside of the 

building. He is currently 

working on the floor in the 

storage room, which has 

long been in need of repairs. 

Once that is finished, 

Gallman can put bookshelves 

in the room. He 

wants to reorganize all of 

the history books and hopes 

to make more room for hosting 

displays and exhibits. 

Gallman also plans to reorganize 

the documents and 

files at the Archives. 

Gallman is amazed by the 

holdings of the Historical 

Society. He has enjoyed 

browsing through the old 

newspapers in bound volumes, 

pictures of Crown 

Cotton Mills and other historical 

material. 

“So far it has been like 

Christmas,” he laughed. 

C ONTRIBUTED P HOTO 

Erik Gallman is the new executive secretary of the Whitfield-Murray Historical 

Society and director of Crown Gardens and Archives. He replaces Marcelle 

White, right, who recently retired from the positions. 

Gallman named executive 

secretary of historical society 

“You never know what you’ll 

find.” 

Gallman is enthusiastic 

about digging in and getting 

things done. His is a handson 

philosophy. 

“If you want something 

done, do it yourself,” he 

explained. “There’s a saying 

about two brothers who are 

always together — Seemore 

and Domore. If you want to 

Seemore, you have to 

Domore.” 

One change he would like 

to see in the future is to have 

more young people become 

actively involved in the 

Historical Society. He would 

also like to see more volunteerism. 

Gallman looks forward 

to working with the 

community. 

Regular hours are 

Tuesday through Friday 

from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 

to 5 p.m. The Archives is 

now open Saturday from 9 

a.m. to 1 p.m. and is located 

at 715 Chattanooga Ave. For 

more information, call (706) 

278-0217.

area “sometime in January,” 

said Capt. Rick Swiney with 

the Whitfield County 

Sheriff’s Office. 

“(The victim) reported 

being raped by him,”Swiney 

said. “It happened at her 

home when no one else was 

there (except them). We 

asked him to come in for 

questioning, and he was 

arrested as a result.” 

Bedwell was still in the 

Whitfield County Jail on 

Thursday afternoon. 

Bedwell had a first appearance 

before a magistrate 

judge on Thursday, but was 

held over for a Superior 

Court appearance this morning. 

District Attorney Kermit 

he said. 

“These are the kinds of 

things that happen every 

year,” Long said, “but (normally) 

they’re not so visible.” 

Phoenix High School has 

about 30 teachers, and 

sources there said most of 

them are part-time, including 

director Fred Toney. 

However, Brochu said that 

contrary to Thursday’s story 

in The Daily Citizen,no decision 

has been made on specific 

positions including 

Toney’s. Toney declined 

comment. 

Board of Education vice 

chairman Tim Trew said the 

anticipated cuts are just one 

of many ways Whitfield 

schools officials are seeking 

to be more efficient. Trew 

said he was just happy that 

the system so far hasn’t had to 

make the deep budget cuts 

that other school systems are 

facing. 

However, Trew did say 

that the personnel changes

Gospel concert coming 

to Cohutta Springs 

The Southern gospel 

group, Ron Blackwood and 

the Blackwood Quartet,will 

be in concert Thursday at 7 

p.m. at the Cohutta Springs 

Conference Center, 1175 

Cohutta Springs Road, 

Crandall, as part of their 

“Hope for America” tour. 

Ron Blackwood, son of 

the late R.W. Blackwood 

Sr., spent several years in 

Branson and 11 in Pigeon 

McManus said in an aggravated 

child molestation case 

the magistrate judge would 

not be able to set bail, but 

that the bond appearance 

would have to go to Superior 

Court. 

Swiney did not say why 

several weeks passed after 

Bedwell allegedly raped the 

juvenile for the rape to be 

reported.

Editorial unfair to delegation 

To the editor: 

I read with great interest the recent editorial, 

“Representatives ignoring region” and have to say it was 

more than a little short-sighted and lacked in perspective 

based on my experience in dealing with our congressional 

delegation. Our local and statewide delegation has always 

been very positive, responsive and helpful to our industry 

needs. 

Last week I was part of group that traveled to Washington, 

D.C., to visit with members of Georgia’s congressional delegation. 

I have to say that Senators Saxby Chambliss and 

Johnny Isakson and Congressman Nathan Deal were all 

extremely knowledgeable and understanding of the issues 

confronting our region and our number one industry. 

I think it’s important to take things into perspective. Our 

delegation,made up of Republicans,is fully supportive of our 

issues and problems, but unfortunately being in the minority 

on Capitol Hill comes with its consequences. Being in the 

minority means they don’t have the same leverage and 

degrees of freedom when it comes to negotiating and passing 

legislation —even if it’s commonsense legislation. 

A good example would be the Housing Tax Credit legislation 

proposed by Sen. Isakson. The entire Senate supported 

adding this legislation to the stimulus,which would have provided 

a $15,000 tax credit to homebuyers. This tax credit 

would have done much to turn the housing market around and 

would have helped the flooring industry get back in motion. 

However, in final negotiations over provisions in the “stimulus” 

package this tax credit was completely watered down in 

the final bill. Isakson has plans to reintroduce the legislation, 

which also has the support of Chambliss and Deal. 

During our meetings with Chambliss, Isakson and Deal, 

we discussed specific legislation essential to boosting the 

housing industry and the flooring industry. Each member is 

supportive of our needs and heeded our advice on other legislation 

that could be detrimental to our region. 

I know our community has experienced tremendous loss 

and hardship, but I know that our representation in 

Washington is doing all they can to do to lend a helping hand 

to Georgians who are hurting during this economic downturn. 

We should not be condemning them but should continue to 

encourage their efforts on our behalf. I can assure you from 

first-hand experience dealing with our delegation that they 

are dedicated to Georgia and the success of the carpet industry.

Vice President, Carpet and Rug Institute 

The impact of the American Red Cross 

To the editor: 

Across the United States, March is recognized as 

American Red Cross Month. As one of the nation’s best 

known humanitarian organizations,the Red Cross has been at 

the forefront of helping Americans prevent, prepare for and 

respond to large and small disasters for 127 years. 

Communities depend on the Red Cross in times of need, and 

the Red Cross depends on the support of the American people 

to achieve its mission. 

This year the Red Cross is taking time in March to focus 

on the volunteers and employees who demonstrate such compassion 

and generosity by supporting the Red Cross in 

Whitfield County and around the country. As one of more 

than 700 chapters and blood regions across the country, we 

rely on these everyday heroes to give their time and talents to 

help others through CPR, first aid and automated external 

defibrillator training, to coordinate blood drives or make 

financial donations. 

In the past year alone, the Dalton Whitfield Chapter 

responded to 112 local emergencies, assisted 157 military 

families and trained 6,968 people in lifesaving skills. Across 

this community,the Red Cross is an organization people can 

rely on for help, comfort, assistance and compassion. On 

behalf of the Dalton Whitfield Chapter, I thank you for your 

support to help us continue our service to those in who need 

us, every day.

Fly not as I fly 

Democratic Speaker of the 

House Nancy Pelosi is the 

Jennifer Lopez of congressional 

travel — fickle, 

demanding and notoriously 

insensitive to the time, costs 

and energy needed to accommodate 

her endless demands. 

On Tuesday,the indispensable 

government watchdog 

Judicial Watch released a 

trove of public records 

through the Freedom of 

Information Act on Pelosi’s 

travel arrangements with the 

U.S. military. 

As speaker of the House, 

Pelosi is entitled to a reasonable 

level of military protection 

and transport. But it’s the 

size of the planes, the frequency 

of requests and lastminute 

cancellations, and the 

political nature of many of her 

trips that scream out for 

accountability. 

And, of course, it’s the 

double-barreled hypocrisy. 

There’s the eco-hypocrisy of 

the Democratic leader who 

wags her finger at the rest of 

us for our too-big carbon footprints, 

and crusades for massive 

taxes and regulation to 

reduce global warming. Then 

there’s the Bay Area 

hypocrisy of the woman who 

represents one of the most 

anti-military areas of the 

country soaking up military 

resources to shuttle her (and 

her many family members) 

across the country almost 

every weekend. 

Remember: Pelosi’s San 

Francisco is notorious for 

banning the Marines’ Silent 

Drill Platoon from filming a 

recruitment commercial on its 

streets; killing the JROTC 

program in the public schools; 

blocking the retired battleship 

U.S.S. Iowa from docking in 

its waters; and attacking the 

Navy’s Blue Angels — which 

left-wing activists have tried 

to banish from northern 

California skies for the past 

two years. 

Apparently,those anti-war 

protesters have no problem 

with evil military jets currying 

Pelosi and her massive 

Let me say unequivocally that Rep. 

Al Williams, D-Midway, and I are on 

the same page regarding the fact that the 

Georgia Department of Revenue says 

Williams and about 10 percent of his 

colleagues in the Georgia General 

Assembly are delinquent in paying their 

taxes. Williams, who reportedly owes 

the state $42,672 in back taxes and has a 

lien of $73,049 on property in Midway, 

calls the whole thing “crap.” I couldn’t 

agree more. 

Of course, Williams’ definition of 

“crap” and mine differ slightly. I think it 

is crap that this guy hasn’t paid his taxes 

and is acting like some kind of 

aggrieved victim and making all kinds 

of whiny excuses. If you and I tried to 

do the same thing, we would be having 

this conversation in Reidsville State 

Prison. 

The fact is that he has been identified 

along with a number of other members 

of the Legislature who evidently think 

paying taxes is for peons. As of this 

writing, only a few names are known, 

but all should become public information 

in the very near future. State 

Revenue Commissioner Bart Graham 

says that 22 legislators — Democrats 

and Republicans,senators and representatives 

— can be categorized as “repeat 

offenders,” some for as long as six 

years. 

Senate Minority Leader Robert 

Brown, D-Macon, told Atlanta television 

station WXIA that he had not filed 

federal or state income taxes at least in 

the past two years. However, Brown 

entourages 

to the 

funerals of 

the late 

R e p . 

Stephanie 

Tu b b s 

Jones and 

Charlie 

Norwood; 

foreign 

junkets to 

Michelle Rome; and 

Malkin politicized 

stops to 

Iowa flood 

sites to bash the Bush administration. 

One exasperated 

Department of Defense official, 

besieged with itinerary 

changes and shuttle requests 

back and forth between San 

Francisco International 

Airport and Andrews Air 

Force Base for Pelosi, her 

daughter, son-in-law and 

grandchild, wrote in an e- 

mail: 

“They have a history of 

canceling many of their past 

requests. Any chance of 

politely querying (Pelosi’s 

team) if they really intend to 

do all of these or are they just 

picking every weekend? 

(T)here’s no need to block 

every weekend ‘just in case.’” 

Another official pointed 

out the “hidden costs” associated 

with the speaker’s lastminute 

changes and cancellations. 

“We have folks prepping 

the jets and crews driving 

in (not a short drive for some), 

cooking meals and preflighting 

the jets etc.” Upset that a 

specific type of aircraft was 

not available to her boss, a 

Pelosi staffer carped to the 

DoD coordinators: “This is 

not good news, and we will 

have some very disappointed 

folks, as well as a very upset 

speaker.” 

Three months ago, turmoil 

erupted over Queen Nancy’s 

demand for the military to 

reposition her plane to fly out 

of Travis Air Force Base in 

Fairfield, Calif., closer to 

where she had “business,” 

instead of San Francisco 

Airport/SFO (1.5 hours 

Dick 

Yarbrough 

away). A special air missions 

official wrote: “We have never 

done this in the past. The deal 

is that the Speaker shuttle is 

from D.C. to SFO and back. 

We will not reposition. We do 

not reposition for convenience 

even for the SECDEF. It is not 

(too) far of a drive from Travis 

to SFO. Did the escort suggest 

to the speaker that this is OK? 

If so, I hope you guys correct 

them immediately. If you 

agree with me that I am correct, 

then you need to stay 

strong and present the facts to 

the speaker’s office.” 

Another official stated 

bluntly: “We can’t reposition 

the airplane such a short distance. 

It is not a judicial use of 

the asset. It is too expensive to 

operate the jet when there is 

truly no need to do so.” 

A beleaguered colleague 

responded: “(Y)ou know I 

understand and feel with you 

but this is a battle we are 

bound to lose if we tell the 

speaker office. In the end, this 

is what will happen. I wish 

that I could say this is a onetime 

request, but we know it 

will probably happen again in 

the future.” 

In the end, the military 

won that battle. But a few 

days later, Pelosi was back 

with a new demand: that her 

military plane taking her from 

D.C. to San Francisco make a 

stop in New Jersey to bring 

her and three Democrats to an 

“innovation forum” at 

Princeton University involving 

21 participants and no 

audience. A Gulfstream jet 

was secured for the important 

“official business.” 

No word on whether 

Pelosi required vanilla-scented 

candles, Evian water and 

fresh white lilies aboard the 

flight. But rest assured: Air 

Diva traveled in style, courtesy 

of your tax dollars and 

the forbearance of the U.S. 

military.

hastens to add that he 

had filed for extensions 

and was “exercising 

the same rules” 

anyone else can by 

filing for extensions. 

Maybe he knows 

something I don’t 

know,but tax experts 

say that even if you 

file for an extension 

you still need to pay 

something, otherwise 

you are subject to 

substantial penalties 

if it is determined you 

owe money to the government. 

In response to this sorry state of 

affairs, Sen. Eric Johnson, R-Savannah, 

introduced a bill that would let the state 

Senate more quickly investigate probable 

tax evaders in the Legislature. Sen. 

Brown responded by playing the race 

card. (He is black; Johnson is white.) 

The minority leader went to the well of 

the Senate and brandished a picture of 

Sen. Johnson riding in the St. Patrick’s 

Day parade and holding what looks to 

be a Confederate flag. It is, in fact, the 

old Georgia state flag, which at the time 

the picture was taken was the official 

flag of our state. I guess playing the race 

card is cheaper than paying your taxes, 

and it doesn’t take near as much integrity.

them, the vast majority in both parties 


T ODAY IN H ISTORY 

Today is Friday, 

March 13, the 72nd day 

of 2009. There are 293 

days left in the year. 

On this date: 

In 1781, the planet 

Uranus was discovered by 

Sir William Herschel. 

In 1884, Congress officially 

adopted Eastern 

Standard Time for the 

District of Columbia. 

In 1901,the 23rd president 

of the United States, 

Benjamin Harrison, died 

in Indianapolis at age 67. 

In 1925, the Tennessee 

General Assembly 

approved a bill prohibiting 

the teaching of the theory 

of evolution. 

In 1964, bar manager 

Catherine “Kitty” 

Genovese, 28, was 

stabbed to death near her 

home in the New York 

City borough of Queens; 

the case generated controversy 

over the supposed 

failure of Genovese’s 

neighbors to respond to 

her cries for help. 

In 1980, Ford Motor 

Co. Chairman Henry Ford 

II announced he was stepping 

down,the same day a 

jury in Winamac, Ind., 

found his company innocent 

of reckless homicide 

in the fiery deaths of three 

young women in a Ford 

Pinto. 

In 1988, yielding to 

student protests, the board 

of trustees of Gallaudet 

University in Washington, 

D.C., aliberal arts college 

for the hearing-impaired, 

chose I. King Jordan to 

become the school’s first 

deaf president. 

Ten years ago: Serb 

government forces 

destroyed more than two 

dozen ethnic Albanian 

homes in Kosovo, apparently 

in retaliation for the 

killing of Serb civilians in 

the area. 

Five years ago: Iran 

froze inspections of its 

nuclear facilities after the 

U.N. atomic agency censured 

Tehran for hiding 

suspect activities. (Tehran 

relented two days later.) 

One year ago: The 

body of Chaldean 

Catholic Archbishop 

Paulos Faraj Rahho was 

found in a shallow grave 

in northern Iraq, two 

weeks after he was kidnapped 

by gunmen in one 

of the most dramatic 

attacks against the country’s 

small Christian community. 

Today’s Birthdays: 

Singer-songwriter Neil 

Sedaka is 70. Actor 

William H. Macy is 59. 

Actress Dana Delany is 

53. Rock musician Adam 

Clayton (U2) is 49. Jazz 

musician Terence 

Blanchard is 47. Actress 

Annabeth Gish is 38. 

Actress Tracy Wells is 38. 

Some legislators want to spend tax dollars 

are good people trying to do a good job 

for us. (Remember, 90 percent of the 

legislators did pay their taxes on time.) I 

just hope they understand what an 

aspersion the alleged tax evaders have 

cast on the rest of them. 

It will be interesting to see how all of 

this will play out over the coming weeks 

and months. You can bet that when all 

the names are known, you will hear 

more squealing than a pig farm at feeding 

time. My fervent hope is that the 

General Assembly will have the guts to 

punish those found guilty of tax evasion 

and toss them out on their duffs. 

Or will we witness Democrats 

defending Democrats and Republicans 

defending Republicans and Jesse 

Jackson and Al Sharpton barging into 

town and trying to turn the whole thing 

into a racial issue? Or will politicos 

assume that we will become distracted 

by other matters and forget the whole 

thing? That’s not likely. 

Most folks will give our politicians a 

lot of room when it comes to things like 

being wined and dined by lobbyists,getting 

free tickets to events we can’t afford 

to attend and bopping around on private 

jets. But thinking you can live by a different 

set of rules than the rest of us and 

that tax dollars are something to be 

spent and not paid? That, my friends, is 

just a pile of —well, you know.

JA: 3 businessmen chosen 


The event is one of the 

biggest fundraisers of the 

year for the organization, 

Norris said. 

Junior Achievement volunteers 

teach students from 

elementary school to high 

school how economics and 

finance apply to the real 

world. About 250 volunteers 

teach some 8,000 students in 

the eight-county Northwest 

Georgia district, which 

includes 39 schools in 

Murray and Whitfield counties. 

The nonprofit organization 

has been in Dalton since 

1964. 

A committee of community 

members and volunteers 

with Junior Achievement 

selected the newest 

inductees. They were selected 

based on their business 

and community contributions. 

News of his selection to 

the hall of fame caught Jolly 

by surprise. 

“I appreciate the thought, 

but you feel like there’s a lot 

of other folks here that 

deserve it. I thought they 

were scraping the barrel 

pretty low to come up in my 

direction,” Jolly said with a 

laugh. “My recollection of 

the folks of those who have 

been honored in the past few 

years have been folks I really 

look up to and feel like they 

are great honorees.” 

Here are profiles of the 

2009 class: 

Jim Jolly 

As a native Daltonian and 

a 1959 graduate of Dalton 

High School, Jolly has kept 

his hometown on his mind. 

After receiving a bachelor 

of science degree in textiles 

from Georgia Tech in 1964, 

Jolly began his career as a 

technical service representative 

with Monsanto and 

worked there until 1965 

when he began a two-year 

stint with the U.S. Army. In 

1967, Jolly joined carpet 

manufacturer J&J Industries 

and became chairman and 

CEO 22 years later. He 

retired from the company in 

2006. 

During his time in Dalton, 

Jolly has devoted his time to 

advancing the carpet industry 

and promoting education. 

He served as chairman of the 

Carpet and Rug Institute’s 

board of directors from 1993 

to 1995. CRI president 

Werner Braun lauded Jolly 

for his involvement in the 

organization and his contributions 

to the industry. 

“When this industry is 

faced with tough decisions, 

where he was always going 

to be coming from was 

what’s the best thing to do on 

behalf of the industry,” 

Braun said in a previous 

Daily Citizen article. 

Jolly has a hand in 

statewide education policy as 

a member of the Board of 

Regents for the University 

System of Georgia. He is a 

member of the Covenant 

College Board of Trustees, 

chairman of the Covenant 

College Foundation and a 

member of the executive 

committee of the Dalton 

State College Foundation. 

Also, Jolly is a charter member 

of the Dalton Whitfield 

Boys and Girls Club board of 

directors and graduated with 

the first Dalton-Whitfield 

Chamber of Commerce 

Leadership Dalton class. 

He is member of Grace 

Presbyterian Church. Jolly 

and his wife, Judy,have two

Although Little wasn’t 

born and raised in Dalton, 

he’s more than made up for 

the lost time. A former executive 

with Shaw Industries, 

Little has had a profound 

effect on the community 

through his work with various 

community groups. 

T HE H ALL OF F AME 

Three community leaders will enter the Junior Achievement 

Northwest Georgia Business Hall of Fame at a banquet on 

May 5 in Dalton. Jim Jolly, former CEO of J&J Industries; 

Norris Little, a former executive at Shaw Industries; and Pleas 

Smith, founder of Smith & Green Construction, will join the 12 

current members of the hall of fame. 

The 2008 class consisted of brothers Ken and the late Jim 

Boring, who were part owners of Hardwick Holding Co. and 

got their start in the rock quarry business; and the late Tom 

Jones, co-founder of J&J Industries and a member of the 

Dalton Board of Education for 26 years. 

Joining the 2007 group were the late James Brown, founder of 

Brown Printing; Norman Burkett, former administrator of 

Hamilton Health Care System; the late Harry Saul, who founded 

Queen Carpet (which was sold to Shaw Industries); and 

businessman Jack Turner. 

The inaugural class included Jack Bandy, co-founder of 

Coronet Industries; the late Alan and Shirley Lorberbaum, cofounders 

of Aladdin Mills (which became Mohawk Industries); 

V.D. Parrott Jr., former general manager/president of Dalton 

Utilities; and the late Catherine Evans Whitener, one of the 

pioneers of the bedspread industry, which evolved into the 

carpet industry. 

Photos of the members can be seen at a display at the trade 

center. For information about the event, contact Junior 

Achievement at (706) 278-9180. 

Little is a native of 

Charlotte, N.C., and attended 

the University of North 

Carolina. He graduated from 

Georgia State University in 

1955. Six years later he 

moved to Dalton after being 

recruited to work for 

Coronet Industries, which 

was co-founded by Jack 

Bandy. 

He began his career at 

Shaw in 1975 and quickly 

climbed up the corporate 

ladder, serving in numerous 

roles at the company including 

corporate officer and 

director, vice chairman, 

president and chief operating 

officer, senior vice president 

of operations and vice 

president of manufacturing, 

and now vice chairman 

emeritus. 

Since retiring from Shaw 

several years ago, Little has 

remained involved in the 

community. He serves on the 

Dalton State College 

Foundation, the advisory 

board for Wachovia Bank, 

chairman of the board of the 

Community Foundation of 

Northwest Georgia, a trustee 

of the Covenant College 

Foundation and the council 

of the local chapter of the 

Boy Scouts of America. 

“Norris Little is everywhere 

in Dalton,” Dixie 

Kinard wrote in her nomination 

letter. “Since his retirement 

he has devoted himself 

to providing leadership 

wherever it is needed. His 

devoted interest in this community 

can be seen all over 

our community as he attends 

meetings, leads meetings 

and financially supports the 

agencies that lift our citizens 

up and improve the quality 

of life in Dalton and 

Whitfield County.” 

He is member of Grace 

Presbyterian Church. Little 

and his wife, Billie, have 

three children and seven 

grandchildren. 

Pleas Smith 

The motto of Smith & 

Green Construction — 

“Building Northwest 

Georgia Since 1948” — can 

be applied to more than just 

physical structures. 

After graduating from 

Georgia Tech with a civil 

engineering degree, Smith 

knew he would return to his 

hometown of Dalton to start 

a construction company. 

Those plans were put on 

hold because of World War 

II and time in the U.S. Army. 

Smith first worked for his 

uncle’s construction company 

and in the spring of 1948, 

he and Raymond Whittle 

won a bid to build a fire hall 

for the city of Dalton on 

Murray Avenue. That project 

signaled the beginning of the 

business that would become 

Smith & Green 

Construction, now Dalton’s 

oldest general construction 

company. 

While there are scores of 

buildings throughout 

Whitfield County — and 

beyond — built by the company 

co-founded by Smith, 

he made time to contribute 

to the community. He has 

been president of the Dalton 

Rotary Club, a commissioner 

on the Dalton Utilities 

board, a member of the 

Dalton-Whitfield Planning 

Commission and was on the 

charter board of Big 

Brothers Big Sisters. 

He has also donated property 

for the construction of 

Friendship House child care 

center on South Hamilton 

Street, land for Civitan Park 

and a nearby walking trail 

and mountain property along 

Crow Valley Road to 

Whitfield County for greenspace. 

“Pleas is a very quiet, but 

effective business and community 

leader who has left 

his mark on northwest 

Georgia in many ways,” 

Norman Burkett, another 

business hall of fame member, 

wrote in his nomination 

letter. “At 85 years of age, he 

is still a builder; a builder of 

buildings, abuilder of community 

and a builder of people.” 

Smith attends First 

United Methodist Church. 

He and his wife, Jane, have 

five children.

Sears Tower to get new tenant, name 

CHICAGO (AP) — For 

Chicagoans it may be the 

architectural equivalent of 

having to watch Michael 

Jordan finish his career in a 

Washington Wizards uniform: 

The Sears Tower is 

turning into something called 

the Willis Tower. 

That’s right, the tallest 

building in the United States 

is getting a new name later 

this year, building management 

said Thursday. 

“It just doesn’t work,”said 

Robin O’Sullivan, a tourist 

from Cork, Ireland, as he 

walked into the Sears Tower’s 

Skydeck entrance on 

Thursday. “It’s known worldwide. 

Everyone in Ireland 

knows it’s the Sears Tower.” 

It’s all part of a deal with 

the London-based Willis 

Group Holdings. Along with 

moving 500 employees into 

140,000 square feet on multiple 

floors of the 110-story 

building this summer, the 

Willis Group gets the naming 

rights as part of its lease 

agreement with the real estate 

investment group that owns 

Sears Tower. 

The name change isn’t the 

first in recent years for 

Chicago. In 2006, the city’s 

State Street shopping district 

saw Marshall Field’s department 

store become Macy’s 

and in 2003 the White Sox 

started playing baseball at 

U.S. Cellular Field instead of 

Comiskey Park. 

“We certainly appreciate 

and understand the sentimental 

attraction to the Sears 

Tower name, and it’s certainly 

a Chicago icon,”said Will 

Thoretz,aspokesman in New 

York for Willis Holdings 

Group. “Our move into 

Chicago is a good thing for 

the city. We’re bringing hundreds 

of jobs into the city.” 

The company requested 

the change and isn’t paying 

extra for naming rights to the 

tower,Thoretz said. 

The insurance broker will 

occupy more than 140,000 

square feet at $14.50 a square 

foot. Willis is moving six 

local offices into the building. 

The move is expected to be 

completed by late summer.

C ONTRIBUTED P HOTOS 

4-day school week gains 

momentum amid recession 

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — 

With the nation’s school districts 

strapped for cash, more 

are considering a schedule 

that delights students and 

makes working parents 

cringe: Class only four days 

a week. 

By extending school 

hours and eliminating a day 

of classes each week, education 

officials say they could 

save busloads of money on 

transportation and utilities. 

That’s all fine by Layla 

Bahabri, a 10th-grader at 

South Florida’s Charles W. 

Flanagan High School, who 

likes the idea of sleeping in 

and studying on the extra day 

off. 

“We could catch up on 

whatever we want to do,”she 

said. 

Introduced by New 

Mexico during the 1970s oil 

crisis, the abbreviated school 

week is gaining fresh 

momentum in states and districts 

hurt by the economic 

downturn. Select districts in 

about 17 states already follow 

a four-day week and legislators 

in Florida, Georgia, 

Indiana, Maine, Missouri 

and Washington have introduced 

similar proposals. 

“It’s happening primarily 

because of the economic situation,” 

said Gale Gaines, 

vice president for state services 

at the Southern Regional 

Education Board. “Schools 

and districts are trying to 

work as efficiently as possible.” 

While there’s still debate 

about how much districts 

will save, proponents say the 

shortened week can improve 

attendance and teacher retention. 

As for academics, studies 

have shown the four-day 

schedule does not hinder student 

achievement, and may 

even help improve test 

scores. 

Some districts have even 

reported fewer disciplinary 

referrals and more classroom 

participation. 

“It’s hard to get to the 

why, of course, because so 

many things affect student 

achievement,” said Andrea 

D. Beesley of Mid-continent 

Research for Education and 

Learning in Denver. 

State laws govern how 

many days students must 

attend class each year. In 

places where four-day weeks 

are allowed, districts are 

required to hold an equivalent 

number of instructional 

hours. That typically means 

adding just over an hour of 

class each day. 

Critics worry, however, 

about burdening working 

parents with extra child care 

costs, and question whether 

students — especially 

younger ones in elementary 

school — can handle a 

longer school day without 

getting tired.

So, how is everyone getting the Universal

said Dr. Joseph Dietz, asenior health care 

advisor for the Universal Health Card. 

“Just call the National Hotline before the 

48-hour deadline and cover only the $18 

registration fee. It’s that simple,” Dietz 

said. 

Since noone can be refused, everyone

The Universal Health Card can now be 

claimed by anyone regardless of past or

anyage can save on health careprotection 

and prescription drugswithout anyconfusion 

or redtape. 

“We’re all one illness away 

from poverty …But now 

the Universal Health Card 

helps ensure full access to 

quality medical care so 

patients get the affordable 

care they need when they 

need it.” 

-Dr.Philip Howren 

EmergencyRoom Physician 

For the next 48 hours, the new Universal 

Health Card is available to individuals 

and entire families and you don’t have to 

be over 65orhave low income to get the 

newcard. 

All health careneeds arebeing provided 

at affordable rates by over 561,000 health 

care professionals including Doctors and 

Hospitals locally and across the nation. 

In addition there

Dentists across 

the country that provide 

the affordable 

dental care services 

including: dentures, 

cleaning, fillings, 

crowns, root 

canals, braces, oral 

surgery, extractions 

and more for Universal 

Health Card

And when it comes to eye care, the Universal 

Health Card professionals are second

But when an accident or serious illness 

strikes Universal Health Card holders are 

farbetter off than those without anyhealth 

insurance because there are hospitals nationwide 

thatnow accept this health card. 

“We’re all one illness away from poverty 

…But now the Universal Health Card 

helps ensure full access to quality medical 

care so patients get the affordable 

care they need when they need it,” said 

Dr. Philip Howren, Emergency Room 

Physician. 

With the high cost of health care, some 

families arerolling the dicehoping thatan 

accident or catastrophic event will not 

occur. 

That’s why the 

Universal Health 

Card is saving 

the day for so 

many people. It 

is not health insurance. 

It’s like 

a safety net of 

savings that gives 

everyone and 

their family protection 

when none 

is available or 

theyhavetoo little protection. 

Long term protection will also be extended 

to card holders atjust forty-nine dollars 

amonth, but now that everyone can 

get the card for free, it’s soimportant that 

everyone in need of protection calls now 

and beats the 48-hour deadline. All that 

is needed is to cover just the registration 

fee that will provide the first thirty days of 

complete, affordable protection with the 

Universal Health Card forfree. 

“Thereare over47million people in the 

U.S. who don’t have health insurance so 

we know the phones will be ringing off 

the hook,” said Kenneth J. Geis, Director 

of the National Hotline. Our reason for 

the 48-hour deadline is simple; we want 

to make sure that everyone gets to speak 

to areal person who can instantly register 

and then issue the free card.

B RIEFS 

Obama defends 

economic blueprint 

WASHINGTON — 

Confronting misgivings in 

his own party,President 

Barack Obama mounted a 

stout defense of his blueprint 

to overhaul the national 

economy Thursday,arguing 

that delay on health care, 

energy and education would 

make “recovery more fragile 

and our future less secure.” 

The president’s wide-ranging 

proposals in the midst of 

economic crisis faced skepticism 

from both Democrats 

and Republicans, as senators 

questioned his long-term 

budget outlook and the 

deficits it envisions in the 

middle of the next decade. 

Dow rallies 

NEW YORK — Investors 

have been clamoring for 

months for a bit of good 

news. On Thursday,they got 

a load of it. The Dow Jones 

industrials shot up 240 

points, bringing its gains 

over the past three days to 

622 points. It was the 

index’s biggest three-day 

jump since last November. 

This week’s rally got an 

extra dose of adrenaline after 

an accounting board told 

Congress Thursday it may 

recommend a let-up in financial 

reporting rules for troubled 

banks in three weeks. 

Upheaval in the banking 

industry has been dogging 

the market since 2007, and 

hope that banks might finally 

get relief in how they 

value their bad assets 

spurred a flurry of buying. 

Better-than-expected retail 

sales figures also helped 

stocks, as did positive news 

from four Dow companies: 

Bank of America Corp., 

General Electric Co., 

General Motors Corp., and 

Pfizer Inc. 

Steele clarifies 

stand on abortion 

WASHINGTON — A 

day after a magazine quoted 

him as saying abortion was 

“an individual choice,” GOP 

Chairman Michael Steele 

said Thursday he opposes 

abortion and that Roe v. 

Wade should be overturned. 

Steele, who was adopted, 

told GQ magazine that his 

mother had the option of 

getting an abortion or giving 

birth to him. “The choice 

issue cuts two ways,”Steele 

said in the wide-ranging 

interview published online 

Wednesday. “You can 

choose life, or you can 

choose abortion. You know, 

my mother chose life.” 

Asked whether he thought 

women had the right to 

choose abortion, Steele said: 

“Yeah. I mean, again, I think 

that’s an individual choice.” 

On Thursday morning, 

Steele attempted to clarify 

his remarks in a statement. 

“I am pro-life, always have 

been, always will be,” he 

said. 

Pelosi refuses to 

hold vote on raise 

WASHINGTON — 

Congress’ automatic pay 

raises are in little immediate 

danger of being scrapped for 

good, even with the economy 

slumping and millions of 

Americans unemployed. 

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi 

on Thursday would not commit 

to holding a vote on a 

bill to do away with the 

annual cost-of-living 

increases. She pointed out 

that Congress recognized the 

economic crisis by voting 

this week to skip next year’s 

raise. In so doing, though, 

lawmakers defeated a Senate 

measure to abolish the automatic 

pay hikes and force 

them into the deep discomfort 

of casting actual votes to 

give themselves raises. 

Junk misses station 

WASHINGTON — The 

crew of the international 

space station had a close call 

with space junk Thursday. 

The three astronauts briefly 

took refuge inside a Russian 

escape capsule before returning 

inside the space station. 

Officials were worried that 

the orbiting outpost might 

get hit with a small piece of 

passing space debris. Tiny 

pieces of debris could cause 

a fatal loss of air pressure in 

the station.

Donna Lee Davis has seen 

several accidents at the intersection 

of College Drive and 

Dug Gap Battle Road. 

“It’s not an easy intersection 

to get out of,”said Davis, 

Dalton State College’s assistant 

director of student activities. 

“You have to look to

traffic but to make sure 

no one is turning off the

make sure no one is turning

Daniel Sanchez, a DSC

“It gets pretty hectic,

B Y G REG B LUESTEIN 

AND S HANNON 

M C C AFFREY 

Associated Press Writers 

ATLANTA — The 

Georgia House embraced 

targeted tax breaks aimed at 

creating jobs and a proposal 

aimed at finally doing away 

with the annual tag tax 

Thursday during a hectic 

make-or-break day that legislators 

set as a deadline to 

either pass dozens of bills or 

toss them aside 

for the year. 

The Senate, 

meanwhile, 

adopted a closely 

watched measure 

that would restrict 

embryonic stem 

cell research in 

Georgia that was 

rushed through the chamber 

after President Barack 

Obama lifted restrictions on 

federal funding for embryonic 

stem cell research. 

The measures were 

among dozens on the docket 

during Georgia’s do-or-die 

crossover day, the 30th day 

in the 40-day session when 

bills must pass at least one 

chamber or be shelved until 

next year. While there are 

rare exceptions, afailure to 

pass the measure is usually a 

devastating blow to the proposal’s 

future. 

With that in mind, House 

lawmakers voted overwhelmingly 

to approve the 

latest bid to erase the socalled 

birthday tax on cars, 

an annual property tax due 

the month of a resident’s 

birthday. Instead, residents 

would pay a one-time fee of 

up to $2,000 or 7 percent of 

the car’s value — whichever 

is less — when they buy a 

vehicle. 

The proposal to wipe out 

the tax, long a target of powerful 

House leaders, was 

expected to be at the center 

of an exhausting legislative 

debate. But few critics ventured 

to speak against the 

measure, which is expected 

to raise more than $100 million 

for Georgia’s fragile 

trauma care network. 

While supporters called it 

a tax break, the proposal 

officials are looking at putting 

in a roundabout, or traffic 

circle, at the intersection 

to ease congestion and 

improve safety. 

Whitfield County officials 

listed the intersection 

for improvements funded by 

the Special Purpose Local 

Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) 

approved by voters in 2007. 

The county originally 

planned to move the intersection 

farther west, away 

from the I-75 offramp, and 

have it line up with West 

Bridge Road, which leads to 

Red Lobster. 

“But the topography and 

the Chamber of Commerce 

building being located there 

made it very, very expensive,” 

Whitfield County 

engineer Kent Benson said. 

could raise more than $450 

million in new revenue next 

year. That figure drops to 

about $180 million by 2014, 

according to a fiscal note. 

Supporters say much of it 

would come from secondhand 

car sales that often go 

undetected by tax collectors. 

“Is it a tax increase?” 

asked House Majority 

Leader Jerry Keen. “Yeah, 

it’s a tax increase for those 

who are doing their transactions 

under the table.” 

The House also 

quickly and overwhelmingly 

approved a package 

of tax breaks 

that Republican 

sponsors considered 

Georgia’s 

response to the 

$787 billion federal 

stimulus package. 

The measures give companies 

a $500 credit toward 

the unemployment insurance 

tax and a $2,400 income tax 

credit for each new employee 

they hire and retain for at 

least two years. They also 

launch a one-year “new business 

tax holiday” that waives 

a $100 state filing fee for 

new registrations, and call 

for a referendum to eliminate 

the $2.5 million ad valorem 

tax on inventory. 

“A vote against this is a 

vote against one of the best 

economic development 

opportunities for this community,” 

said state Rep. 

Martin Scott, R-Rossville. 

Not all the measures slated 

for the marathon day 

revolve around taxes. 

Top of that list was a 

Senate plan that would ban 

the creation of embryonic 

stem cell lines in the state. 

The plan, which passed 34- 

22 after an impassioned 

debate, was hastily rewritten 

after some worried it could 

hinder the fertility industry. 

Supporters used stark language 

to warn the stem cell 

research is an assault on life 

in its earliest form. 

“Some things, unchallenged, 

unfettered, can ultimately 

lead to evil,” said 

state Sen. Preston Smith, a 

Rome Republican. 

The House, which stayed 

“So the option that we are 

looking at, and that the 

Georgia Department of 

Transportation has independently 

looked at, is a 

roundabout.” 

Benson said both GDOT 

and local engineers believe 

the intersection is too close 

to the I-75 offramp to put a 

traffic signal there. Moving 

the intersection could cost 

about $2.5 million, while a 

roundabout would probably 

cost about $1 million, he 

said. 

Benson said work on the 

intersection has been hampered 

because it is on federal 

property in the I-75 right of 

way. 

“The reason the project 

hasn’t started is that we needed 

federal permission to 

deep into the night to debate 

more than 60 measures,tackled 

its own embryo bill early 

in the day. Lawmakers 

passed a proposal 96-66 to 

create a legal mechanism for 

the adoption of embryos, 

which sponsors said could 

help save some of the 20,000 

or so frozen embryos in 

Georgia each year that are 

discarded. 

work in their right of way,” 

he said. 

Benson said they finally 

got that permission in 

February. 

“They said that looked 

like the best option, and we 

got their permission to work 

directly with the state as far 

as working on the right of 

way,”he said. 

The next step, he says, is 

to create a preliminary design 

and get approval for it from 

the Georgia Department of 

Transportation (GDOT). 

“They want to see that 

before they give their final 

permission to us to use the 

federal right of way,”he said. 

Benson said a request for 

bids on that design went out 

Wednesday. He said a completed 

preliminary design

G ENERALA SSEMBLY 

Bill tells teen drivers to hang up 

ATLANTA (AP) — 

Teenage drivers, be warned: 

Texting and talking while 

driving could soon be offlimits 

in Georgia. 

The House voted 138-34 

Thursday to ban drivers 

under 18 from texting and 

making calls on their cell 

phones while driving. The 

measure, which now goes to 

the Senate, threatens to slap 

those who don’t hang up 

with fines and even a suspended 

license. 

Georgia could join at least 

17 other states and the 

District of Columbia that 

have passed cell phone 

restrictions for teen drivers if 

the Legislature adopts the 

changes. 

should be ready by mid-summer 

and a final design by late 

fall. 

“I don’t expect construction 

will begin in 2009. It 

probably won’t start until 

2010,”Benson said. 

The construction should 

take no more than six 

months, he says. 

“We’ll have to do construction 

on one stage of (the 

project) and allow traffic to 

flow on the other side,” he 

said. “During daylight hours, 

there will have to be a person 

or persons out there controlling 

traffic flow.” 

Roundabouts aren’t very 

common in Georgia. Will 

drivers know how to handle 

them? 

“The people who learn the 

quickest are these college 

kids,and they are the majority 

who use it. They’ll adapt 

pretty quickly,” said Dalton 

public works director Benny 

Dunn. “But there will be a 

learning curve.” 

Local drivers might want 

to get used to driving in 

roundabouts. Benson said 

Gerald Ross, GDOT’s chief 

engineer and current interim 

commissioner, is a big advocate 

of roundabouts. 

“He has proposed a 

change in their intersection 

approval process that designers 

must show a roundabout 

will not work before they 

approve a new signal light,” 

Benson said. “That hasn’t 

started yet. But it is on the 

way, so you’ll see more and 

more of them.”

‘Sorry and ashamed’ Madoff pleads guilty 

NEW YORK (AP) — 

Bernard Madoff’s victims got 

what they wanted to see, but 

not what they wanted to hear. 

Saying he was “deeply 

sorry and ashamed,” the disgraced 

financier pleaded guilty 

Thursday to perhaps the 

biggest swindle in Wall Street 

history and was led off in handcuffs 

to begin serving a sentence 

expected to be up to 150 

years in prison. 

While some bilked investors 

were delighted by the spectacle, 

the bigger questions were 

left unanswered: What happened 

to all the money, people’s 

life savings, their college 

tuition, as much as $65 billion 

in all? Who helped him pull off 

the fraud that turned a wellrespected 

investment professional 

into a symbol of Wall 

Street greed amid the economic 

meltdown? 

“So he spends the rest of his 

life in jail — is that justice? 

People’s lives are ruined,” said 

Adriane Biondo of Los 

Angeles, one of five members

of her family who lost money 

with Madoff. “Where’s the 

money,Bernie?” 

Because Madoff pleaded 

guilty as charged, without any 

kind of deal with prosecutors, 

he is under no obligation to 

cooperate with them. As a 

result, some legal experts and 

others have speculated that he 

is sacrificing himself to protect 

his wife, his family and friends. 

“He’s trying to save the rest 

of his family,” said investor 

Judith Welling. “We need to 

find out who else was involved, 

and we need, obviously, to 

freeze the assets of all those 

people involved to help the victims.” 

The 70-year-old financier 

who was once chairman of the 

Nasdaq exchange will be sentenced 

June 16 on 11 counts, 

including securities fraud and 

perjury. He could also be fined 

and ordered to pay restitution 

to his victims and forfeit any 

ill-gotten gains.

In a long, detailed statement

it as a short-term way to 

weather the early-1990s recession, 

and was unable to extricate 

himself as the years went

Shooter depressed over failures 

GENEVA,Ala. (AP) — In 

the days before he killed five 

family members and five others 

in the worst massacre in 

Alabama history, Michael 

McLendon told a confidant he 

was unfulfilled and depressed 

by his failure to become a 

police officer or a Marine. 

The 28-year-old weapons 

enthusiast and self-proclaimed 

survivalist joined the Marines 

in 1999 but was discharged a 

month later for fraudulent 

enlistment. He tried to join the 

Samson Police Department, 

but couldn’t complete some of 

the physical requirements at 

the state police academy. He 

resigned from at least two different 

jobs, one at a metals 

plant in 2003, the other at a 

sausage factory last week. 

Though they have learned

more about McLendon’s 

behavior in the days before the 

shootings, authorities said 

Thursday they still don’t know 

what set him off. 

“I don’t think anybody 

could have anticipated this by 

looking at him and interacting 

with him,”said Coffee County 

District Attorney Gary 

McAliley. “But certainly he 

had a volcano inside of him.” 

Investigators said they 

found a two-page, handwritten 

letter in which McLendon 

admitted he had killed his 

mother and said he planned to 

commit suicide. He also mentioned 

a family dispute over a 

legal issue but didn’t reveal 

plans to kill anyone else. 

McAliley said earlier that 

McLendon appeared to have 

had a dispute with family 

at the Georgia World 

Congress Center. 

The Atlanta Hawks have 

home games in Philips 

Arena against Indiana 

Friday and Portland 

Sunday. Philips Arena will 

be the Saturday night location 

for the Elton John and 

Billy Joel “Face 2 Face” 

concert. 

The Atlanta Journal- 

Constitution International 

Auto Show begins a nine- 

members over a family Bible, 

though he said he now believes 

there’s no merit to that idea. 

After killing his mother at 

the house they shared in the 

small, isolated community of 

Holley’s Store and setting it on 

fire, McLendon started his 

rampage Tuesday. It ended 

with him taking his own life 

following a shootout with 

police in Geneva, about 24 

miles away, at Reliable 

Products, the plant where he 

worked until 2003. 

In between, he gunned 

down three relatives and the 

wife and 18-month-old daughter 

of a local sheriff’s deputy 

on a front porch in the town of 

Samson. He turned his gun 

next door and killed his 74- 

year-old grandmother and sent 

panicked bystanders fleeing 

H e a r W h a t 

Y o u ’v e B een 

M i ssing 

and ducking behind cars. 

McLendon then drove off, 

spraying bullets and killing 

three more bystanders. 

In the remains of his mother’s 

house, investigators found 

dozens of soot-covered DVDs 

on how to commit acts of violence. 

McAliley said they 

appeared to be serious, not a 

joke, and included one about 

how to shoot into a moving 

car. One of the victims was 

driving when he was shot and 

killed. 

McLendon had a permit for 

two pistols he had with him 

during the rampage but no 

license for two assault rifles he 

used as he squeezed off some 

200 rounds. He bought plenty 

of ammunition and magazines 

the day before the killings, 

authorities said.

PREP BASKETBALL: MAKE-A-WISH ALL-STAR GAMES 

Charity games build lasting legacy 

B Y M ARTY K IRKLAND 

martykirkland@daltoncitizen.com 

If you need a marker for the endurance of 

the Make-A-Wish All-Star Games, consider 

this:This year’s participating players — seniors 

from basketball programs in Northwest 

Georgia who have completed their high 

school eligibility — were in first grade when 

the games launched. 

The contests raise money to support the 

national-based Make-A-Wish charity, which 

helps make the wishes of children with lifethreatening 

medical conditions a reality. And 

the games have done far more than founder 

Heidi McKinney-Ingle would have ever 

imagined. 

“I thought it would be maybe a one-time 

thing,”said McKinney,who was a high school 

senior coming up with a service project for the 

INSIDE SPORTS

j Nationals get the best of Braves, 4B 

j Prep schedule, TV listings, pro standings, 4B 

j Jones: What the Rock’s cooking stinks, 8B 

Southeast student council over which she 

presided at the time of the games’ creation. 

This year’s games are scheduled for 

Saturday night at Christian Heritage School, 

with the girls tipping off at 6 p.m. and the 

boys following at 7:30. Admission is $10 for 

adults and $5 for students. 

McKinney was herself a recipient of help 

from Make-A-Wish while battling leukemia as 

a high school student. Along with her family, 

she took a 10-day trip to Hawaii during which 

the charity “pulled out all the stops,”she said. 

Years later, with a college degree in hand, 

married to husband Jeff and having survived 

a second battle with cancer, McKinney said 

she’s happy to still be a part of the games. 

“The community is more aware of what 

Make-A-Wish actually does,” McKinney 

said. “Now we have a local office and that 

way we’re able to take care of the needs of 

children in our area. And the funds we raise 

at the Make-A-Wish games actually will take 

care of local kids that make wishes here.” 

Ron McKinney, Heidi’s father, is the 

director of the games and credited volunteer 

efforts with helping keep them going so long. 

Giving local basketball fans a chance to see 

departing seniors in a fun setting doesn’t hurt 

either, though. 

“They have such a good time doing something 

for someone else,” he said. “That’s 

what I think is important. It’s a great benefit, 

because they’ll learn in life it’s not always 

receiving, it’s giving that’s important.” 

Wrinkles have been added along the way 

— slam dunk and 3-point shooting contests 

are a recent feature — along with new 

fundraising avenues. 

McKinney is encouraging people to buy 

Make-A-Wish’s blue paper stars at a cost of 

$1 each to show support. 

Game organizers hope to raise an additional 

$5,000 besides the game’s gate. Stars 

are available at local high schools as well as 

Studio 360 in downtown Dalton,he said, and 

will include a coupon for a free Chick-Fil-A 

sandwich.

AREA ROUNDUP 

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: ACC TOURNAMENT ROUNDUP 

That’s a start 

M ISTY W ATSON/The Daily Citizen 

Murray County third baseman Jacob Pritchett throws a 

LaFayette player out at first during the Indians’ non-region 

game with the visiting Ramblers on Thursday in Chatsworth. 

The Ramblers rallied late for a 6-3 victory. 

Ramblers hand 

first loss to MC 

F ROM S TAFF R EPORTS 

A back-and-forth battle on the 

diamond went LaFayette’s way 

Thursday in Murray County. 

The host Indians led twice, 

but couldn’t hang on as the stateranked 

Ramblers won 6-3 in a 

non-region, cross-classification 

battle. 

“It was a great game,” Murray 

County coach Jason Lanham said. 

“LaFayette’s ranked fourth (in 

Class 3A) in the latest AP poll, so 

they’re a quality club and it was a 

playoff-type atmosphere.” 

Murray County (5-1) — 

which competes in Region 7-4A 

— took a 1-0 lead in the first 

inning, but the Ramblers of 6-3A 

bounced back for two runs in the 

fourth. The Indians went up 

again with their final run in the 

fifth, but LaFayette split its last 

four trips across the plate among 

the final two innings for the win. 

The Indians’ Chandler Puryear 

started and took the loss, working 

five innings and allowing three 

runs on four hits and two walks 

while striking out six. Taylor 

Patterson worked the final two 

innings, allowing two earned 

runs on a hit and two walks while 

striking out one. 

Murray County’s Blake 

Hammontree went 2-for-3,Colton 

Roberts had a double and 

Patterson contributed to his own 

cause with a double and two RBIs. 

“It was a hard-fought game,” 

Lanham said. “I was really proud 

of my team, they showed a lot of 

fight and intensity. It was a great 

baseball game. Somebody had to 

lose it, but it was a shame it was 

us. But that doesn’t take away 

from the game itself. It was one 

of the best I’ve been a part of in a 

long time.” 

■ Southeast 2,Trion 1 : 

Tanner McCutchen pitched a 

seven-inning complete game, 

striking out 10, as the Raiders 

edged Trion. 

McCutchen walked six and 

gave up two hits, but his strikeouts 

and a solid defense helped 

shut down the Bulldogs. 

Bradley Grant drove in both 

runs for Southeast (3-3), the first 

on a fielder’s choice and the second 

on an RBI single. Michael 

Simpson and Ryan Andrews 

scored for Southeast. Trion’s lone 

run was unearned. 

■ Baylor (Tenn.) 11, Dalton 

9 :The bats were booming but the 

pitching didn’t hold up for the 

Catamounts (0-2) in their firstround 

loss at the Hixson 

Tournament in Tennessee. 

Beau Blackwood was 4-for-4 

with four doubles and three 

RBIS, while Stryker Brown 

added a pair of doubles and 

drove in three runs. Garren 

Palmer had two hits and an RBI. 

Dalton’s Colton Kinnamon 

started and went three innings, 

giving up eight runs on six hits, 

including three home runs, and 

four walks. Nick Ray finished, 

giving up one earned run in three 

innings while striking out five. 

The Cats, who had two errors, 

play Chattanooga Christian 

today.

host Warriors pounded out 16 

hits, including three homers,

made three errors.

T HE A SSOCIATED P RESS 

ATLANTA — Georgia Tech is 

hoping to pull off a Georgia-like 

run through the Atlantic Coast 

Conference tournament. 

One down, three to go. 

Lewis Clinch set a career high 

with 32 points and the last-place 

Yellow Jackets pulled off the first 

upset of the ACC tournament, 

beating No. 17 Clemson 86-81 in 

the opening round Thursday. 

Clinch made five 3-pointers to 

carry the Yellow Jackets (12-18), 

who went 2-14 in the ACC during 

the regular season — including a 

pair of losses to the Tigers. He 

capped his performance with a pair 

of clinching free throws, eclipsing 

his career high of 30 points against 

Miami just eight days earlier. 

“I was open,”Clinch said. “If I 

have open looks, I’m supposed to 

knock them down.” 

After equaling the most ACC 

losses in school history during the 

regular season, Georgia Tech has a 

chance to match its win total in 

just two days. The Yellow Jackets 

advanced to face No. 22 Florida 

State in the quarterfinals today. 

“We’re clicking,” backup center 

Alade Aminu said. “We’re ready 

for them.” 

Actually,the outcome wasn’t 

that much of a surprise. For the 

third time in four years, the 12thseeded 

team in the tournament 

opened with an upset of the No. 5 

seed.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: SEC TOURNAMENT ROUNDUP 

UGA falls in Bulldog battle 

T HE A SSOCIATED P RESS 

TAMPA, Fla. — Kodi Augustus 

finally seems to have his attitude, 

work ethic and game in shape. 

If it would have happened 

sooner, Mississippi State might be 

a lock for the NCAA tournament. 

Augustus, who started the first 

nine games of the season before 

getting benched because of his 

lackadaisical effort, scored a 

career-high 19 points and 

Mississippi State beat Georgia 79- 

60 Thursday in the opening round 

of the Southeastern Conference 

tournament. 

Augustus was 6 of 9 from the 

field and 3 of 4 from 3-point range 

— an unexpected hot streak for a 

sophomore who came into the 

tournament averaging 5.4 points a 

game and shooting just 22 percent 

(4 of 18) from behind the arc. 

“I was really surprised,” said 

Georgia’s Terrance Woodbury, 

who led his team with 14 points 

and seven rebounds. “We went 

over him a little bit ... but I didn’t 

think he was going to be as good 

as he was. He played real well, 

and I want to say that’s a real plus 

for them as far as advancing in this 

tournament. 

“If he keeps up his aggressiveness 

as far as what he did against 

us, they pretty much have the talent 

to beat anybody.” 

Augustus and Mississippi State 

(20-12) certainly made quick work 

of Georgia (12-20), the defending 

SEC champs who were looking to 

make another shocking run 

through the tournament. This year, 

it could be Mississippi State’s turn. 

The team will face South Carolina

COMMENTARY: SCOTT ADAMSON 

Crazy-good idea: Daytona finale 

B 

ruton Smith talks first and 

thinks later — when he 

thinks at all. During a recent 

interview prior to a race he said one 

of the reasons NASCAR is having 

trouble selling corporate tickets is 

because “They’re afraid that Obama 

might shoot them or something.” 

Of course, the man has made a 

career out of uttering inflammatory 

remarks, which, if he was a regular 

Joe, would probably come back to 

haunt him. But the owner of Lowe’s 

Motor Speedway and several other 

tracks is a billionaire, so when he 

says something ridiculous it’s considered 

“cute” or “eccentric.” 

I must say,however, I agree with 

him that the final race of the Sprint 

Cup season should not be at 

Homestead-Miami Speedway. 

“Why would you have the last 

race of the year in some god-forsaken 

area that is north of Cuba?” 

Smith asked. 

INDIAN WELLS, Calif. (AP) — 

Maria Sharapova made a tentative 

return from shoulder surgery 

Thursday, teaming with Elena 

Vesnina in a 6-2, 4-6, 10-7 loss to 

Ekaterina Makarova and Tatiana 

Poutchek in doubles play at the BNP 

Paribas Open. 

It was the first match in seven 

months for Sharapova, who was forced 

off the WTA Tour last August by a torn 

rotator cuff and underwent surgery on 

her right shoulder two months later. 

The North teams will be 

made up of players from 

Dalton, LaFayette, 

Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe, 

Northwest Whitfield, 

Ringgold and Ridgeland. The 

South will feature Calhoun, 

Gordon Central, Rome and 

Southeast athletes. 

The North girls will be 

coached by Northwest’s 

Margaret Stockburger,whose 

Lady Bruins recently completed 

a 28-3 season that 

ended in the state quarterfinals. 

Stockburger is a veteran 

of the games,having coached 

in several earlier editions. 

I’ve never thought of the Miami 

area as being god-forsaken. And 

technically,all NASCAR events 

held in the United States are north 

of Cuba. 

But I can think of a much better 

place for the Sprint Cup Series to 

stage its grand finale. 

If the series really wanted to 

make a splash, put the final race of 

the season where it started — 

Daytona International Speedway. 

It makes sense, doesn’t it? I 

mean, the Daytona 500 is the Super 

Bowl of stock car racing, considered 

the circuit’s biggest event even 

though it’s the first event of the season. 

If you end the Sprint Cup campaign 

at Daytona — in the 

Championship 500 — then drivers 

cap off the year at NASCAR’s most 

storied track (and in warm weather). 

This would mean the July 4 

Pepsi 400 would be no more, at 

“It feels very good to be back,” 

the 24-year-old Russian said. “I just 

wanted to test (the shoulder) out. I 

started training a couple of months 

ago. I just wanted to ... test it out in a 

match situation and get a little different 

scenery than the practice court 

and play in front of the crowd, so that 

was exciting. The main goal for here 

was just to get out there and be in 

that atmosphere again. 

“The hump I’ve got to get through 

right now is to put together two 

“It’s a fun game and it’s 

exciting for the kids to be 

able to play with other people,” 

Stockburger said. “And 

it’s for a good cause. I think 

they enjoy playing in it and I 

enjoy coaching it.” 

Among the players 

Stockburger will have the 

chance to guide are 

Northwest’s Callie Thomas 

and Jasmine Thornton. 

“I’m looking forward to 

it,”Thomas said. “It’s going 

to be really fun, especially 

getting to play one more 

game of basketball and especially 

with Stockburger 

being the coach. It’s going to 

be kind of different (playing 

with players from other 

teams), because I’ve never 

done that before, but I’m 

looking forward to it.” 

Thomas and Thornton will 

be joined on their roster by 

Dalton’s Brandi Joubert and 

Ringgold’s Jensen Hackett 

and Jessi Sponberger. 

Playing for the South girls 

will be Southeast’s Nancy 

Gomez, Brooke McDonald 

and Beth Stone and Rome’s 

Candace Foster, Eurice 

Elkins, Wendy Wade and 

Keesha Wise. Southeast’s 

Jeff McDonald will handle 

the coaching duties. 

The North boys will be 

coached by Christian 

least not in Daytona. So give 

Homestead-Miami that date and rebrand 

the race. 

I know,I know,it upsets the traditionalists, 

but when was the last 

time NASCAR let tradition stand in 

its way? For that matter, when was 

the last time Smith let tradition 

stand in his way? 

Remember, this is the same guy 

whose company,Speedway 

Motorsports, owns eight tracks and 

hosts 11 Cup events. He was instrumental 

in removing North 

Wilkesboro from the Cup circuit 

after buying a half interest in the 

track and threatened to close Lowe’s 

Motor Speedway unless he was 

allowed to build a drag strip. 

But I’m guessing if there was a 

move afoot to move the last race of 

the season to Daytona, Smith would 

oppose that, too. He wants it in 

either Atlanta or Las Vegas, which 

just happen to be tracks he owns. 

weeks of coming out to the court and 

playing two or three sets every day, 

and doing that for seven or eight days 

in a row. ... Right now I’m able to do 

maybe three days or four days and 

then I have to take it easy on the fifth. 

Sharapova was unsure where or 

when she would play again. 

“I’m done with setting a timetable 

for myself. Those days are over,”she 

said. 

Earlier in the day, two-time tournament 

champion Lleyton Hewitt 

Heritage’s Chad Woodson 

and feature Dalton’s Caz 

Cole, David White and 

Mauro Guzman; Northwest’s 

T.J. Bryant, Tanner Reno, 

Bryce Martin, Romeo 

Williams and Caleb Tatum; 

Ridgeland’s Derrick Sanders 

and David Alexander; 

LaFayette’s Kota Dixon, 

Diaunte McSears, T.J. 

Gilliland, Darius Careathers, 

Adam Moore, Chace Bailey 

and David Brock; and LFO’s 

Travis Keefe and Zach 

Oliver. 

The South boys will be 

coached by Ridgeland’s Chris 

Edge and feature Southeast’s 

Adrian Storey,Cody Gibson, 

(Daytona is owned by International 

Speedway Corporation.) 

Ultimately,this is a battle Smith 

is going to lose and he knows it. 

NASCAR officials like 

Homestead-Miami, as do most of 

the drivers, and I imagine the folks 

in Daytona are perfectly happy to 

host the opener as well as the 

sport’s mid-season classic. 

Smith simply likes to hear himself 

talk and likes it even better 

when other people hear him talk. 

Still, the idea of having the last race 

of the season at Daytona is one I’ve 

thought about for years and would 

love to see come to fruition. 

But if a billionaire can’t get 

NASCAR to seriously listen to what 

he has to say,what chance do I have?

Woods 

not at 

the top 

DORAL, Fla. (AP) — 

Tiger Woods returned to 

stroke play for the first 

time since winning the 

U.S. Open,and so much of 

it felt familiar except for 

the leaderboard at Doral. 

His name was nowhere 

to be found Thursday at 

the CA Championship. 

His wife, Elin, walked 

the back nine a month after 

giving birth to their son. It 

was her first time watching 

Woods play since Torrey 

Pines. Woods found himself 

more concerned with 

posting a score than beating 

one player, as was the 

case in match play two 

weeks ago. 

The crowd was large, as 

usual for the Blue 

Monster, but shouts of 

“Welcome back!” were 

replaced by “Vamos, 

Tigre!” 

But as players from all 

around the globe kept 

pouring in birdies — relative 

unknown players like 

Prayad Marksaeng and 

Jeev Milka Singh, followed 

by the familiar 

name of Phil Mickelson — 

Woods was stuck in the 

middle of the pack of an 

80-man field. 

Mickelson chipped in 

three times, twice while 

finishing with three 

straight birdies,on his way 

to a 7-under 65 that gave 

him a four-way share of 

the lead with Retief 

Goosen, Marksaeng and 

Singh. 

Woods made only three 

birdies — two of them on 

par 5s — and had to settle 

for a 71 that put him in a 

tie for 40th. 

“I need to be a touch 

sharper,”said Woods, who 

has never finished out of 

the top 10 at Doral. 

Mickelson has rarely 

been this excited. He can’t 

recall hitting the ball this 

long or having a short 

game this superb. Along 

with taking only eight 

putts on the back nine, he 

pounded tee shot so far 

that he had wedge left for 

his second shot on the par- 

5 first hole. 

“It was just nice to see 

the ball go in the hole,” 

Mickelson said. 

Woods didn’t seen 

much of that, twisting his 

body and buckling his 

knees when one putt after 

another failed to drop. It 

was his highest openinground 

score in seven starts 

on the Blue Monster. 

“It was not like I was 

playing poorly and shot 

71,”Woods said. “I played 

well and just didn’t make 

any putts.” 

The problem for him 

was just about everyone 

else did. Singh ran off five 

birdies in a six-hole stretch 

around the turn and was 

the first player to post a 65 

on a balmy, breezy afternoon. 

Goosen, switching 

back to a conventional putter, 

ran off eight birdies in 

his round of 65. And the 

real surprise was 

Marksaeng, of Thailand, 

who shot 30 on his back 

nine to join the leaders. 

The group one shot 

behind included British 

Open and PGA champion 

Padraig Harrington, who 

didn’t feel as though he 

did much of anything right 

and had his best score of 

the year. 

“I think I hit two fairways 

with my driver today. 

So it’s not like I played 

good golf or anything like 

that,” Harrington said. “It 

was all about the score.” 

For Mickelson, it was 

mostly about his finish. 

He hit into the water on 

No. 3 and took double 

bogey, found the water 

again on the par-3 fourth 

hole and chipped in for 

par. Mickelson was even 

through eight holes and 

was hopeful of a good 

back nine that would allow 

him a chance Friday to get 

into contention. 

Three hours later, he 

already was there. 

After trying to drive the 

355-yard 16th hole, he 

pitched up to 3 feet for 

birdie.


ACC: Terps, Hokies still in 


And Clemson failed 

again to win the most prestigious 

of league tournaments 

on its 56th try — the only 

original member of the ACC 

lacking a championship. 

Gani Lawal added 20 

points and 14 rebounds for 

the Yellow Jackets, who are 

well aware of what state 

rival Georgia did at last 

year’s Southeastern 

Conference tournament in 

Atlanta. 

The last-place Bulldogs 

won four straight games to 

earn an NCAA bid in a tournament 

interrupted by a 

devastating tornado that 

struck the Georgia Dome. 

The final two days of the 

tournament were shifted to 

Georgia Tech’s campus 

arena, where the Bulldogs 

wrapped up their improbable 

championship. 

Clemson (23-8) made it 

to the ACC title game a year 

ago before losing to North 

Carolina, but they were oneand-done 

at the Dome and 

will head to the NCAAs 

mired in a major slump. The 

Tigers have lost four of their 

last five, which will hardly 

impress the seeding committee. 

in today’s second round, 

probably needing a couple 

more wins to earn an NCAA 

berth. 

MSU can only hope 

Augustus keeps it up. He hit 

consecutive 3-pointers to 

start a 16-2 run midway 

through the opening half 

that turned a tight game into 

double-digit lead. 

Georgia sliced into the 

40-26 halftime lead by 

outscoring MSU 13-5 after 

the break, but MSU pulled 

away with more 3s. Barry 

Stewart and Augustus made 

back-to-back shots from 

behind the arc, then Stewart 

added another one a few 

seconds later that made it 

60-44 with 12:13 to play. 

“Our team is capable of 

doing that,”MSU coach Rick 

Stansbury said. “That’s what 

makes us difficult to guard.” 

MSU finished 9 of 24 

from 3-point range. 

Georgia wilted down the 

stretch, no surprise for a 

team that’s spent much of 

this season in turmoil. 

Coach Dennis Felton was 

fired in late January after 

Georgia started 0-5 in 

league play. 

■ Maryland 74, N.C. 

State 69:Eric Hayes scored a 

career-high 21 points,including 

six free throws in the final 

2:08, and Maryland took control 

with a late 11-0 run to 

beat North Carolina State. 

N.C. State, which led by 

13 points in the first half,held 

its last lead at 62-61 with 

4:12 left. Maryland answered 

with 11 straight points, 

including five free throws by 

Hayes,who set a season high 

with five 3-pointers. 

Greivis Vasquez had 17 

points and 10 assists for 

Maryland (19-12), which 

boosted its NCAA tournament 

hopes. 

Julius Mays led N.C. 

State (16-14) with 18 points. 

Ben McCauley had 14 

points and Dennis Horner 

had 11. 

Maryland will face No. 2 

seed Wake Forest in the quarterfinals 

tonight. Maryland 

coach Gary Williams said two 

ACC tournament victories 

should leave the Terrapins in 

“good shape”for the NCAA 

tournament. Dave Neal added 

10 points for the Terrapins. 

N.C. State led 21-8 midway 

through the first half 

before Hayes and the 

Terrapins began catching up 

with 3s. 

■ Alabama 82, 

Vanderbilt 75 :Alonzo Gee 

scored 25 points and 

Alabama went 12-for-12 

from the foul line in the 

final 1:03 to hold off 

Vanderbilt. 

Mikhail Torrance made 

all eight of his free throws 

and finished with 20 points 

as the Crimson Tide (18-13) 

continued a strong late-season 

surge and advanced to 

today’s quarterfinals against 

SEC East co-champion 

Tennessee. 

Gee bounced back from a 

poor shooting night in 

Alabama’s 70-67 victory 

over Tennessee in the regular-season 

finale to go 9-for- 

12 from the field and 7-for-8 

from the foul line. 

The Crimson Tide built a 

16-point lead, but Brad 

Tinsley and Jeffery Taylor 

led a late surge that helped 

Vanderbilt (19-12) trim its 

deficit to five in the final 

minute. 

Tinsley led Vanderbilt 

with 20 points and Taylor 

had 17 for the Commodores. 

Leading scorer A.J. Ogilvy 

was held without a field 

goal until the final minute 

and finished with eight 

points. 

■ Virginia Tech 65, 

Miami 47 :Seth Greenberg’s 

Virginia Tech easily kept its 

NCAA tournament hopes 

alive against Miami, however 

the coach knows his 

Hokies will “have to take it 

to a whole new level” today 

against North Carolina. 

Virginia Tech broke open 

a close game with a 14-0 

run in the second half and 

beat Miami, setting up the 

faceoff with the top-seeded 

Tar Heels. 

Greenberg is trying to join 

his older brother,Radford 

coach Brad Greenberg, in the 

NCAA tournament. Radford 

won the Big South championship 

on Saturday. 

Malcolm Delaney made 

only 1 of 10 shots from the 

field but made 14 of 15 free 

throws to lead Virginia Tech 

(18-13) with 17 points. A.D. 

Vassallo added 14 points 

and 8 rebounds. 

The Hokies, who led by 

14 points in the first half, 

were ahead only 43-37 midway 

through the second half 

before the 14-0 run. J.T. 

Thompson, who had 12 

points, started the hot streak 

with back-to-back baskets 

and capped the run with a 

basket with 7:15 remaining 

for a 57-37 lead.

help Kentucky stop a fourgame 

losing streak with a 

victory over Mississippi. 

The Wildcats (20-12) 

advanced to today’s quarterfinals 

against No. 20 LSU 

and kept alive their hopes of 

extending their streak of 

consecutive appearances in 

the NCAA tournament to 18. 

Mississippi (16-15) was 

outscored 35-20 in the second 

half, when Meeks had 

15 points and Kentucky shot 

54 percent from the field 

(14-of-26) and played stifling 

defense. 

Terrico White led 

Mississippi with 21 points, 

but only had six after halftime. 

David Huertas came 

off the bench to score 15 

after not starting because of 

a bone bruise in his left 

foot. 

After losing four straight 

games to close the regular 

season, Kentucky likely 

needs to win its 26th conference 

tournament title this 

weekend to avoid missing 

the NCAA tournament for 

the first time since 1991.

BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) 

— Daniel Cabrera was happy 

with the way he pitched 

Thursday for the Washington 

Nationals in a 6-2 loss to the 

Atlanta Braves. 

It was his hitting that 

made him giddy. 

Cabrera, who struck out 

14 times with the Baltimore 

Orioles over the past five seasons, 

singled to right in his 

first spring training at-bat 

with Washington. 

“I think he just threw his 

bat at the ball,”Braves starter 

Jair Jurrjens said. 

Jurrjens, expected to be 

No. 3 or 4 in the Braves’ rotation, 

allowed three hits and 

two runs in four innings. He 

was Atlanta’s most consistent 

pitcher last season when he 

finished 13-10 as a rookie.

Bidding quiz 

1. One 

notrump. 

This indicates 

15 to 

17 points 

(many still 

play 16-18), 

balanced 

distribution 

(usually 4- 

3-3-3, 4-4- 

3-2, or 5-3- 

3-2) and 

stoppers in at least three suits. It is far better to open with 

one notrump than one club. 

There are several reasons why the notrump call is preferred. 

The primary one is that the opening notrump bid 

immediately pinpoints the type of hand held in terms of 

both points and distribution. As opposed to this, aone-club 

bid could be based on any type of distribution and a wide 

range of high-card points. 

Additionally, aone-club opening will present a rebid 

problem if partner responds with one diamond, one heart or 

one spade, all of which would make an accurate rebid 

impossible. The way to avoid such problems is to open one 

notrump at the outset. 

2. One diamond. Despite the classic notrump features of 

your hand, the proper opening is one diamond. Hands containing 

19 high-card points do not fall into the opening oneor 

two-notrump category. Such hands are opened with one 

of suit, and the true nature of the hand is then shown at the 

next opportunity by jumping in notrump. 

3. One diamond. You have no legitimate suit with which 

to open the bidding, since the spades and hearts are too 

weak to mention, the diamonds are only three cards in 

length, and you cannot open one club with a two-card suit. 

But since any 14-point hand must be opened, something 

must be done, and one diamond is the best choice. It has the 

merit of keeping the bidding low while allowing for the discovery 

of a major-suit fit if it exists. 

4. One club. Here your best introductory bid is one club. 

It serves to keep the bidding low and allows for you to bid 

one spade at your next turn if partner responds with a diamond 

or a heart. 

5. Four spades. This bid serves two purposes simultaneously. 

It is an offensive effort that may easily succeed if 

partner has an ace. But, more importantly, it has even 

greater value as a defensive bid. If partner has a weak hand, 

the opponents are likely to make a game. However,because 

of the high level at which they would have to begin bidding, 

there is a good chance they will miss their best contract. 

Tomorrow: Heads I win, tails you lose.

T O Y OUR G OOD H EALTH 

Restoring moisture to a dry mouth 

DEAR DR. DONO- 

HUE: I am a 75-year-old 

woman in very good health. 

My problem is a dry mouth. 

A doctor told me that it 

comes from medicines, but 

the only thing I take is a 

multivitamin. On waking in 

the morning, my tongue is 

pasted to the roof of the 

mouth and my teeth. My 

mouth gets so dry, it affects 

my speech. I have tried 

mouthwashes and sprays, 

but they last only a few minutes. 

Can you help me? — 

L.F. 

ANSWER: Everyone 

normally makes one to two 

quarts of saliva a day. Saliva 

has many functions. It lubricates 

the mouth, moistens 

food so it can be swallowed, 

maintains the proper balance 

of acids and bases in 

the mouth and inactivates 

harmful germs to prevent 

tooth decay. Saliva production 

has to decrease by 50 

percent before a person 

senses the mouth has 

become dry. 

Many medicines dry the 

mouth. 

Anticholinergics like 

Paul G. 

Donohue 

Robinul, 

atropine 

a n d 

scopolamine 

(the patch 

used to 

prevent 

seasickness), 

Pamelor 

and other 

antidepressants, 

b e t a 

blockers, diuretics and calcium 

channel blockers are the 

chief offenders. You take 

none of these. Your multivitamin 

isn’t the cause. 

A blockage of the salivary 

ducts dries the mouth. 

Diabetes and previous 

radiation to the face can 

diminish saliva production. 

If you sleep with your 

mouth wide open, you 

wake with a parched 

mouth. Sjogren’s (SHOWgrins) 

syndrome is notorious 

for producing a dry 

mouth. Dry eyes are often, 

but not always, part of that 

syndrome. Your doctor has 

to look for these causes. 

Without finding a cause, 

finding a cure will be elusive. 

Keep with you at all 

times a water-filled, plastic 

squeeze bottle and don’t 

hesitate to use it frequently. 

Humidify your house, especially 

the bedroom. 

Become best friends with 

your dentist. Dry mouths 

promote cavities. Chew 

sugar-free gum. 

Two medicines that promote 

saliva production are 

Evoxac and pilocarpine. 

A number of artificial 

salivas and related products 

can keep the mouth moist 

for longer than a few minutes. 

OraMoist is a timerelease 

disc that works 

well. So does Salivart 

spray. Biotene products are 

also effective. None of 

these requires a prescription. 

Numoisyn lozenges 

and liquid do require a prescription. 


HUE: I passed through this 

winter without having the 

flu and without having had 

the flu shot. Something I 

saw in the paper prompted 

me to write to you. It said 

that flu medicines are no 

longer effective. Is that 

true? — B.R. 

ANSWER: The flu 

virus has developed a 

resistance to two formerly 

effective flu medicines, 

Symmetrel (amantadine) 

and Flumadine (rimantadine). 

That is true. This 

year has witnessed the flu 

virus’s less than great 

response to a third flu medicine, 

Tamiflu 

(oseltamivir). However, the 

virus is sensitive to the 

fourth flu medicine, 

Relenza (zanamivir), an 

inhaled medicine. It has 

been suggested that combining 

Tamiflu with 

Flumadine could be effective 

treatment against this 

virus.

(I am in my 70s), I

grandparents talk of people 

dying from consumption. 

Was there or is there such a 

disease? Would it be what 

we call cancer today? — 

C.D. 

A N S W E R : 

“Consumption” is an old 

word for tuberculosis. 

Tuberculosis has been a 

major menace to humans 

almost from the beginning 

of time. Antibiotics have 

given us an upper hand with 

it, but in some people, the 

TB germ has learned how 

to resist the common TB 

medicines. 


HUE: Will you discuss the 

best way to take multiple 

medicines in a 24-hour 

period? I have a friend 

who downs 13 pills at the 

same time. Does mixing 

numerous medicines 

change their effectiveness? 

— N.A. 

ANSWER: It’s hard not 

to imagine that, in a batch 

of 13 different medicines, 

one or two, at least, would 

be incompatible with the 

other 11 or 12. The incompatibility 

might be a lessened 

drug absorption in the 

digestive tract or it might 

be that some of those drugs 

react chemically with others 

in the blood. Your friend 

should get this straightened 

out with the doctor or with 

the pharmacist.

DEAR ABBY: I was sexually abused by 

my sister’s boyfriend, “Teddy,”three 

months ago. He is five years older 

than I am, and now I am pregnant. 

I don’t want to tell Teddy or my 

family because I am afraid of the consequences 

— especially because he 

and my sister are getting married in 

three months. I don’t want to ruin 

their marriage, but ... I am starting to 

show. 

Please help. Teddy is a respectable 

person and I know they won’t believe 

me if I tell the truth. — PREGNANT 

SISTER 

DEAR SISTER: The first thing 

you must do is accept the fact that 

“respectable”men do not have sex — coerced 

or otherwise — with their fiancee’s sister or 

any other woman, for that matter. For your 

own sake and that of your family,you must tell 

your parents what happened. If they are skeptical 

at first, assure them that a paternity test 

will prove that you are telling the truth. 

If the sex was forced, “respectable Teddy” 

is guilty of rape. Even if you were willing, 

depending on your age, he may have committed 

statutory rape. Consider this: If your sister 

knew about this,would she still want to marry 

this heel? She HAS to be told the truth so she 

can make an informed decision.

DEAR ABBY: When I was still working 

and invited someone to join my wife 

and me for dinner, I always assumed 

I would pay because I was the one 

who did the inviting. Now that we’re 

retired, we would like to suggest getting 

together with other couples, but 

it can get costly paying for four people. 

Saying, “Let’s go Dutch,” sounds 

tacky. Is there an acceptable way to 

invite friends out and let them know 

we should each pay our own expenses? 

— ON A BUDGET IN SOUTH 

CAROLINA 

DEAR ON A BUDGET: The 

way this is usually handled is the couple who 

does the inviting pays for the dinner, and the 

guests reciprocate by picking up the tab for 

the next one. Alternatively, when the check 

arrives at the end of the meal, the couples, by 

mutual consent, split it. 

Because your circumstances have changed, 

but the expectations may not have, the subject 

should be raised at the time the date is 

arranged by saying,“Because I’m retired now, 

I can’t treat you the way I’d like — but we’d 

love to see you.” If they are real friends, 

they’ll be glad to see you, too — and the fact 

they are paying for their own food won’t stop 

them.

COMMENTARY: PRO WRESTLING 

Ring stars on screen 

H 

ere are the news and 

notes from the world 

of pro wrestling: 

• John Cena’s latest movie, 

“12 Rounds,”hasn’t hit the 

theaters yet. Fans will have to 

wait until March 27 to see it, 

but he’s already scheduled to 

begin filming another flick 

this summer. Cena has been 

coy about the details,though 

he did say it is being produced 

by WWE. In other 

Cena news,he appears on the 

cover of “Men’s Fitness” 

magazine this month. 

• Speaking of magazines, 

have you noticed there is not 

a WWE diva being featured 

in “Playboy” this year? It’s 

all part of WWE owner 

Vince McMahon’s directive 

to project a more familyfriendly 

product. An alternative? 

TNA’s Knockouts 

could show up in the pages 

of Hugh Hefner’s magazine. 

• WWE released 

“Smackdown” performer 

Kizarny this week. 

• The Rock’s (Dwayne 

Johnson) latest movie flop, 

“Return to Witch Mountain,” 

hits theaters today. And the 

“hits” will keep on coming. 

Check out these less-thanrousing 

descriptions of 

movies slated to be released 

this year starring Johnson: 

“Tooth Fairy”: “A bad 

deed on the part of a tough 

minor-league hockey player 

(Johnson) results in an 

unusual sentence: He must 

serve one week as a real-life 

PHOENIX (AP) — 

Manny Ramirez’ spring 

training debut was pushed 

back at least one more day. 

The Los Angeles Dodgers’ 

slugger was scratched from 

Thursday’s exhibition game 

against South Korea because 

of tightness in his left hamstring. 

Ramirez said he could 

have played, but manager Joe 

Torre decided to give him the 

day off.

“Planet 

51” (animated): 

“The 

inhabitants 

of Planet 

51 live in 

fear of 

alien invasion. 

Their 

paranoia is 

realized 

when an 

astronaut arrives from Earth. 

Befriended by a young resident, 

he has to avoid capture 

in order to recover his spaceship 

and try to return home.”

■ The Local Corner : 

The battle between the 

Dakota Outlaws and Jimmy 

Sharpe and Mark Payne continues. 

After their match last 

week spilled onto the TWA 

Arena floor, promoter Doug 

Watkins ordered a lumberjack 

strap match Saturday 

night to keep everyone in the 

ring. Also, newcomer Tyler 

Gage captured the heavyweight 

championship after 

winning a four-way match. 

History will be made at 

TWA on Sunday. For the 

first time, two ladies will 

take over the TWA Arena to 

put on a different type of 

wrestling show. Two Girls 

One Ring Productions will 

direct the 2 p.m. show. 

In matches last Friday 

night: Damien James Black 

“It’s going to get better,so 

I’m not worried about it,”said 

Ramirez,who had been in the 

lineup as a designated hitter. 

“I’m not disappointed. You’ve 

got plenty of time to get ready. 

That’s in my favor, so I’m 

going to take it day by day.” 

Ramirez also seemed 

unconcerned about criticism 

from former Boston teammate 

Jonathan Papelbon,who 

compared Ramirez to cancer 

defeated Torque; True 

Perfection topped Honor and 

Respect; Johnny Viper 

downed Wes Blaze; Johnny 

Rokk and surprise partner 

Brandon Daniels turned 

back Talon Williams and 

Alex Michaels; Logan Chase 

defeated Tiffany Roxx in a 

prelude to the upcoming 

“Queen of TWA 

Tournament”; and in the 

main event, Big Red and 

Jason Hampton with Chase 

beat Jester and Jake Murphy. 

TWA runs Fridays at 8 

p.m. in the TWA Arena off 

Reed Road in north Whitfield 

County,about three miles 

north of the bypass. The 

Action Zone runs Saturdays 

at 8 p.m. Tickets are $5 for 

adults and $3 for kids 6 to 

12. Kids under 6 are free. 

Any military member with 

proper identification will be 

admitted free.

Ramirez ‘ready,’ but debut hits a snag 

in the April issue of Esquire. 

The Red Sox closer said 

Boston made the right decision 

when it traded Ramirez 

to the Dodgers last summer. 

“He was on a different 

train! And you saw what 

happened with that. We got 

rid of him, and we moved on 

without him,” Papelbon was 

quoted as saying in a story 

posted on Esquire’s Web site 

Thursday.

Q&A 

Cat introductions 

require patience 

Q: When my next-door neighbor knew 

she was going into anursing home,she 

asked me to takeher cat. She passed away 

shortlyafterward. 

Theproblem is,mycat doesn’t want 

another one in the house.Now Icould have 

my neighbor’scat as an outdoor cat—that’s 

what she’sused to —but Iwonder if I 

should try to find her another home,where 

she wouldn’t be an afterthought. Iwould 

appreciate your suggestions. 

—L.D., via e-mail 

A: Let’slook at your options. 

First, getyour cattoaccept another cat 

inside.This doesn’t always work,but if you 

startout with the newcat in her ownroom 

and be patient and neverforceful with the 

introductions,you could end up with two 

cats wholike(or at least tolerate) each 

other.This seems to me the best solution, 

and Ithink youwould agree. 

Atwist on this option is to set up the new 

catinaseparate living space permanently. 

Iknowpeople with “upstairs” and “downstairs” 

cats whoget along well in their own 

territory,aslong as neither catbreaks the 

truce by crossing the imaginary line between 

warring states.This could work if 

youhaveahome thatlends itself to division, 

suchasputting the newcat in comfortabledigs 

likeabedroom adjacent to a 

screened patio. 

Second choice,leave your neighbor’scat 

as an outdoor cat, whichshouldn’t be that 

hardsince you’re one house over.Ifthe new 

catisolder and stays close,this could work, 

butthereare serious downsides.For 

example,the newcat could insist on revisiting 

the h ouse next door,evenafter new 

people move in. And thereare always all the 

usual hazards thatshorten the livesof 

outdoor cats,suchascars,coyotes and 

cathaters. 

Thirdchoice,find the catanew home.If 

youare willing to keep this cat, I’dencourage 

youtodosoand to continue working on 

the living arrangements.Adult cats can be 

difficult to place,and in the current economic 

situation, finding homes forpets is even 

harder than usual. 

Youcan try to place the newcat,though: 

Makefliers,takeout ads and use the 

Internet to spread the word.Post the fliers 

everywhereyou can —bulletin boards at 

work,pet-supplystores and your veterinarian’s 

office.Talk to everyone,evenpeople 

whom youknowwon’t takeher.Someone 

whodoesn’t want acat mayknowsomeone 

else who’dbeperfect forthis one.Check 

references! 

If youfind aperfect home,then great. 

Otherwise,keepworking towardgetting the 

twocatstoget along. It maytakeweeks or 

months,but the payoff is you’ll have kept 

your promise to your late neighbor,and 

both cats will be safe and happyindoors.

Setting the record 

straight on cat myths 

and legends 

By DR. MARTY BECKER 

and GINASPADAFORI 

Universal Press Syndicate 

D 

oyou 

Feline mysteries 

pause when ablackcat crosses 

your path?Evenpet experts sometimes 

do,and then laugh forbeing influenced 

by suchasillyold myth, even forasecond. But 

that’sthe funnything about cats —morethan 

anyother domestic animal, they arethe subject 

of countless myths,legends and old wives’ 

tales. 

While some stories about cats areharmless, 

others aretoo dangerous not to debunk. Here, 

from our archives,are some stubbornold 

myths about cats —and the facts to counter 

them. 

• Blackcatsare bad luck. Blackmay be an 

unlucky color all right, mostlyfor cats themselves.Blackmay 

be an unfortunate color for 

the reason of visibility.Countless cats are 

killed by cars every year,and the difference 

between a hit or anear miss maybethe 

driver’sability to see the catdarting across the 

road. At n ight, patches of light-colored fur area 

distinct advantage. 

• Cats need to drink milk. Is cow’s milk the 

perfect food forcats? Not at all! On the contrary, 

some cats (likesome people) can’t tolerate milk 

well. Forthese animals,asaucer of milk means 

gastric upset. In the wild, kittens neverdrink 

milk after they’re weaned, and domestic cats 

have no reason to either.Onthe other hand, if 

your catlikes andcan tolerate milk, feel free to 

offer it as an occasional treat. Milk is agood 

source of protein and other nutrients forthose 

cats whodon’t find it upsetting. 

• Cats purrwhen they’re happy.Expertcat 

observers knowthat purring isn’t just asound 

of contentment. Cat salso purrifthey’re injured, 

while givingbirth —evenwhen dying. 

British zoologist Desmond Morris has observed 

thatpurring is “a sign of friendship — 

either when (the cat) is contented with afriend 

or when it is in need of friendship,aswith a 

catintrouble.” 

• Cats are adanger to babies. So manycats 

find themselves looking fornew homes when ababyisexpected 

thatyou could putitanother way: Babies areadanger to cats. 

But youdon’t need to find anew home foryour pet if you 

become pregnant. Cats do not maliciouslysmother or suckthe 

breath out of babies,asthe myths hold. That doesn’t mean some 

considerations aren’t in order,however. Pregnant women have 

to takespecial p recautions when cleaning the litter box(or have 

someone else do i t) because of the risk of disease.And even 

animal advocates remind newparents thatcommon sense 

dictates no animal be left unattended with asmall child —for 

the protection of both. 

Black cats are hard tosee in the dark, making them amore likely 

casualty of cruising cars at night. 

• Awell-fed catwon’t hunt. Theability to hunt is hardwired 

into all cats,but the levelofdesirevaries by eachcat’s genetics 

and early experiences,not by the rumbling in his belly. Theplay 

of kittens —pouncing and leaping on anything thatmoves —is 

reallyhunting behavior.Observers of feline behavior believe 

thatifthe mother is an eagerhunter,the kittens maybe, too. 

Putting abell on your catwon’t protect wildlife,but keeping him 

in will. 

Therest of the secrets behind those beautiful feline eyes will 

just have to stayamystery.And that’sjust fine with us catlovers, 

isn’t it? 

Cheetahs saved by 

protection of dogs 

Livestock-protection dogs are 

helping to save Africa’s cheetahs. 

•One dog breed is helping save 

countless big cats in Namibia. Once 

shot for eating livestock, cheetahs are 

kept safe by Kangal Anatolian shepherd 

dogs who keep them away from livestock. 

The dogs, originally bred in Turkey 

for defending villagers from wolves, is 

skilled at fending offeven large cheetahs. 

The Cheetah Conservation Fund has 

donated more than 300 Kangal dogs to 

Namibia, with the program dramatically 

decreasing the number of livestock and 

cheetahs killed. According to The Times 

of London, the program is so successful, 

it may be used in Kenya next. 

•Moths are not attracted to flames, 

but rather, disoriented by them. 

According to “The Book of General 

Ignorance” by John Lloyd and John 

Mitchinson, insects navigate by the sun 

and moon, which helps direct their path 

in astraight line. Moths become confused 

when flying by artificial light. With 

the change in their light path, the moth 

adjusts by flying in circles around the 

light to see the light source again as 

stationary. 

•More organic foods are being fed to 

our pets, according to the market research 

firm Packaged Facts. In 2007 

organic foods reached $1 billion in 

sales, representing 6percent of all pet 

food sales. That’s a50percent growth 

rate since 2003. 

•Afly’s ability to avoid aswatter has 

as much to do with brainpower as raw 

speed, according to high-speed digitalimaging 

experiments at Caltech. An 

article in Popular Science said that within 

300 milliseconds before afly takes 

off, it compares visual information about 

the threat to the current position of its 

body, performs acalculation and moves 

its legs into the optimal position toprepare 

for an escape leap. So take your 

best guess at the fly’s escape route and 

swing the rolled newspaper there.

ON GOOD BEHAVIOR 

Food treats get attention 

Because pets communicate with body 

language morethan verbal language,it 

makes sense to show,not tell, pets what to do. 

Food gets their a ttention and makes learning 

moreofagame than work. 

Forexample,beforeameal, put akibbleor 

treatinyour hand and let your pet lickor 

sniff itasyou walk backward. Keep the food 

at mouth level, and your pet will likely 

follow. Add the word “come” just before 

releasing the treat, and your pet will 

eventuallylearnthe word. 

Youcan teachmanybehaviors this way. To 

teach“sit,” move the treatupand backover 

the head until it’seasier to sit than stand. 

Just as your pet sits,givethe treatand say, 

“Sit.” Add “Goooood!” with afinger tickle to 

your pet’sfavorite spot plus some lovey - 

doveytalk to seal the deal. 

— Susan and Dr.Rolan Tripp,

THE SCOOP 

Keeping hounds from howling 

Howling is fun. It’slike 

group singing or picking up the 

microphone at acanine 

karaokemachine.It’saway for 

dogs scattered across afew 

miles and separated by fences 

to getintouchwith their inner 

wolf and be apartofsomething 

bigger…apack! 

It used to be thought that 

sirens hurtthe sensitive ears of 

dogs and thathowling was a 

protest of pain. But nowit’s 

thought to be an instinctive 

group behavior.The right noise 

—asiren or even the right 

notes on aviola —will geta 

doglifting his nose to the sky, 

and once the woo-wooing/ 

wow-wowing starts,other dogs 

just can’t help butjoin in. 

Some breeds aremoreprone 

to howling than others.The wolfish 

Northernbreeds seem to taketoitnaturally, 

as do hounds suchasbeagles and 

bassets,with their distinctive baying. 

Of course,nomatter howmuchfun 

Many dogs just love to howl —especially 

hounds and Northern breeds. 

your dogishaving, the howl-fests aren’t 

winning youany fans with your neighbors.Sowhen 

the woo-wooing starts, 

hush your puppy. — Gina Spadafori
