Former Chief Dentpicked for PD spotin hushed meetingBy Steve [email protected]

Without any discussion or announcement, former Police Chief Mitchell Dent was quietly hired Monday as a deputy chief by the Vicksburg Board of Mayor and Aldermen in a closed session.

Dent will take over the position vacated by Deputy Chief Jeffrey Scott, who resigned without explanation in March, just six months after leaving the Jackson Police Department to join the Vicksburg force. Dent likely will be sworn in in the next two weeks, said Police Chief Walter Armstrong, who rec-ommended him for the job.

“Mr. Dent will be an asset to the VPD and help me lead the department in the direc-tion I want to take it,” Arm-strong said. “We have high expectations.”

Dent, 54, had been police chief for about a year and a

half when he was replaced in 2001 by Tommy Moffett — who was last year replaced by Armstrong. Dent began his career in law enforce-ment in his native Hatties-burg and worked his way to top of the ranks in Vicksburg after joining the department in 1982. He stayed on with VPD as a captain over crime scene investigations for a few

One in three state homesin financial tug for basicsBy Emily Wagster PettusThe Associated Press

JACKSON — Nearly a third of Mississippi house-holds aren’t earning enough to pay for their own basic needs such as housing, food, child care, health care, trans-portation and state and fed-eral taxes, according to a report Wednesday.

The report calculates how much money families need to pay their own daily expenses without public or private assistance. The figure varies depending on how many

people are in the family and where they live.

The 30-page report gives examples from nine coun-ties, but not a state average. It was researched and writ-ten by Insight Center for Community Economic Devel-opment and other groups advocating for the poor and working poor.

For example, it says that in the Delta’s Bolivar County, a family with two adults and one infant would need $30,401 a year to be self-sufficient.

Three expected to bidon repairing Old BridgeBy Danny Barrett [email protected]

Three builders are expected to bid on work to repair cracks and re-anchor beams above two support structures on the U.S. 80 bridge over the Mississippi River.

New Orleans-based Boh Brothers Construction Co., Columbia, Miss.-based T.L. Wallace Construction Co. and Shreveport, La.-based Shiloh Contractors Inc. were chosen from a list of six com-panies to perform the work, deemed emergencies three months ago. The arrival ear-lier in the week of designs and suggestions from G.E.C.

enabled the decision, Super-intendent Herman Smith said.

Baton Rouge-based G.E.C. is the commission’s con-tract firm for the purpose of emergency repairs and the 80-year-old rail bridge’s annual inspection. Designs submitted will address a cracked easterly floor beam and corroded cover plate above pier 5 and disjointed girders above a shorter con-crete pier on the Louisiana side. Because the commis-sion declared an emergency on the work, the five-member panel had a choice of choos-ing just one firm or sending

Red tape stumps Gulf residents seeking BP paymentsBy The Associated Press

GRAND ISLE, La. — The reefs that David Walter makes for anglers to drop into the Gulf of Mexico are fake, but his frustration as he tries to win compensa-tion from BP for lost income is real.

State regulators stopped issuing permits for the reefs on May 4 because of the oil spill, effectively killing off $350,000 in Walter’s expected business. It sent him into a labyrinth of archived invoices and documents lost by BP. Finally, an offer came: $5,000.

“I said that’s not fair because if you say that, then I have to go out of busi-

ness and I lose everything,” said Walter, whose company is based in Alabama.

Fishermen, property owners and businesspeo-ple who have filed damage claims with BP are angrily complaining of delays, exces-sive paperwork and skimpy payments that have put them on the verge of going under

from staff reports

ROXIE — Army First Sgt. Robert N. Barton, a Missis-sippi native, was killed this past weekend when a bomb exploded near his military vehicle in Afghanistan.

Barton’s body, along with that of four other American servicemen, was returned to the military mortuary at Dover Air Force Base Wednesday.

Barton, 35, was born in 1974 and grew up in the Roxie, Miss., area.

His grandmother, Jo Beth Coleman, said that Barton was a 1993 graduate of Franklin High School, where he played on the football team.

He joined the military the

following year.

Final action on the property awaits settling on a price.

of the Vicksburg National Military Park this summer.

“Whenever I can tell how the average soldier actually fared, it gives me a sense of satisfaction because the aver-age soldier doesn’t get any of the recognition that the gen-erals and politicians do.”

Each summer for nearly 40 years, rangers and summer workers at the park have donned woolen attire and educated visitors through cannon firings, musket dem-onstrations and interpre-tative talks as part of the Living History Program.

The tradition, which resumed last week and will continue through July 31, is just one of the park’s func-tions going on this weekend and daily.

“We’re running about 25 programs per day in the park at the various venues, which include the visitor center, the living history area, the USS Cairo and Pemberton’s Headquarters,” ranger Tim Kavanaugh said. “Our objec-tive is to have as much going on as we can. We’re trying to give them an array of choices so, depending on their inter-est level and their itinerary, they can spend as much time here as they’d like.”

Volunteers from the Valverde Battery, 12th Texas Artillery will visit the park this weekend for a Living History encampment and

demonstrations. Artillery programs and demonstra-tions will be at 9:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Saturday and at 10:30 and 11:30 on Sunday. Rifle demon-strations will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on both days.

Regularly scheduled cannon firings by the park’s own living history volunteers are at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Friday through Tues-day, with an additional firing on Saturday at 9:30 a.m. On those same days, musketry demonstrations are from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Also on Saturday, author and former historian at the park, Edwin C. Bearss and J. Parker Hills, a retired brigadier general, will sign copies of their “Receding Tide: Vicksburg and Gettys-burg, the Campaigns That Changed the Civil War.”

The two will be at the USS Cairo from 4:30 until 6. Copies of other books also will be available for purchase and signing.

Tours of the Cairo are every hour throughout the day.

Beginning Saturday, Pem-berton’s Headquarters, 1018 Crawford St., will be open from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Friday through Sunday. Rangers will lead 30-minute walking tours throughout the downtown area at 10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Complete schedules of each day’s events are available in the visitors center and at the Cairo.

Participating in the summer activities are about a dozen volunteers ages 12 to 15 and 11 “centennial season-als” — college students hired with funds made available by Congress for the National Park Service’s upcoming 100-year anniversary.

This is the third summer Will Wilson has participated as a seasonal. The 35-year-old Jackson State University graduate student said it’s been a fun and educational experience.

“It allows you to be more knowledgeable of a sub-ject matter and convey that knowledge so that other people can understand it in a better way,” Wilson said after a cannon firing one after-noon this week. “Kids can actually touch history and see that it wasn’t all glamor-ous and that men suffered a great deal for freedoms that we have today. It makes you appreciate the fact that they are learning something.”

“I’m really into the Civil War, and it’s a lot of fun to do,” said Bash Brown, 13, son of Tim and Le Brown. Bash, a student at St. Aloysius High School, is volunteering for the second time this summer.

The associaTed press

Officers stand outside the police headquarters where Joran Van der Sloot was being held Wednesday in Lima, Peru.

LIMA, Peru (AP) — Police transferred Joran Van der Sloot to a cell at the pros-ecutor’s office this morning as officials prepared to file charges following what the called a remarkably complete confession in the beating and strangling death of a 21-year-old woman.

“We’ve practically closed the case,” criminal police chief Gen. Cesar Guardia told The Associated Press.

He said the young Dutch-man, who also remains the lone suspect in the Natalee Holloway missing-teenager case, “confessed with a wealth of details that have been cor-roborated through criminal investigative rigor.”

Guardia denied any sugges-tion that Van der Sloot’s con-fession was forced. He said a translator assigned by the Dutch Embassy was pres-ent, as was a state-appointed defense attorney. If tried and convicted on murder charges, Van der Sloot would face from 15 to 35 years in prison.

What remains unresolved is the May 30, 2005, disappear-ance of Holloway on the Carib-bean island of Aruba.

Efforts by the FBI to try to resolve it may have inadver-tently helped fund the travel that enabled the murder — exactly five years to the day after the Alabama teen van-ished — of Lima business stu-dent Stephany Flores.

Believing it was closing in on

Van der Sloot, the FBI video-taped and paid him $25,000 in a sting operation in Aruba last month, investigators told the AP. But it held off on arresting him, and he took the money and flew to Peru.

Peruvian interrogators restricted their questioning of Van der Sloot to the case of Flores, the daughter of a circus promoter and former race car driver whom he met playing poker at a casino, Guardia said.

He said the 6-foot-3 Van der Sloot, 22, impressed investiga-tors with both his intelligence and brutality. “He grabbed her and smashed her with an elbow,” Guardia said, point-ing to his own nose. “A lot of blood spewed out ... Then he strangles her and throws her to the floor.”

“He is irascible. He has no self-control,” Guardia said.

The general said Van der Sloot took Flores’ cash, about US$300 worth of Peruvian cur-rency, and two credit cards.

Guardia said Van der Sloot attested in his confession to killing Flores because she

found out ab o u t t h e Aruba case by using his laptop with-out his per-mission. But he said police didn’t neces-

sarily believe him and think

he may have killed Flores before going out and return-ing to the room with two cups of coffee and rolls.

“This guy is very intelligent but at times has lapses,” said Guardia. “And the truth is that he is not a person in posses-sion of all his senses.”

A psychological examination was pending, he said.

Van der Sloot is also getting plenty to eat, Guardia said. “If he wants a steak we give him a steak ... If he wants a cigarette we give him cigarettes.”

The evidence against the Dutchman includes hotel security camera video show-ing Flores and Van der Sloot entering his hotel room together and the Dutchman leaving alone four hours later. “The incriminatory elements were so powerful that he had to confess,” said Guardia.

Van der Sloot confessed, police say, on his third full day in police custody and a full week after he fled into northern Chile. Police said they removed him from their headquaters and took him to the prosecutor’s office today.

GULFPORT, Miss. — A federal jury, in a second trial, has found a Gulf Coast phar-macist guilty of conspiring to dispense controlled sub-stances outside the scope of professional practice.

U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. on Wednesday ordered marshals to take 42-year-old Nick Tran into custody. Sentencing is set for Sept. 8.

Tran, one of four defen-dants, had refused to accept a plea agreement in the Drug Enforcement Administra-tion’s investigation. His phar-macy was in the same build-ing as the Family Medical Center in Biloxi, where the prescriptions were written.

A jury in March found Tran not guilty on 48 of 59 counts. The jury was dead-locked on 11 counts. The government obtained a new indictment including counts on 22 prescriptions.

Pizza Hut illness suitto be heard in Oxford

OXFORD, Miss. — A trial has been set for March 7, 2011, in federal court in Oxford in a lawsuit filed after

19 church members said they became ill after eating at a Greenwood Pizza Hut.

The case involves five sepa-rate lawsuits, all of which were transferred from Leflore County Circuit Court to the U.S. District Court and consolidated into one.

On Jan. 18, 2009, 19 people were taken to Green-wood Leflore Hospital with nausea, cramps and diar-rhea after eating at the Pizza Hut. A state Department of Health laboratory analy-sis revealed little about why they became ill.

Woman, 63, chargedin Lauderdale slaying

MERIDIAN, Miss. — Lau-derdale County authori-ties have charged Geraldine Walton, 63, with murder in the shooting death of a man in the Lauderdale community.

The body of David Lan-caster, 45, was found Tues-day in his home, said Chief Deputy Ward Calhoun. An autopsy has been ordered.

Walton was in jail on a $75,000 bond. It was not clear if she had an attorney.

Court: Ruling standsin La. deputy’s death

LAKE CHARLES, La. — The state 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the manslaughter charge and sentence imposed on Daniel Pegues, who was accused of killing an off-duty Calcasieu sheriff’s deputy.

Pegues — found guilty Jan. 17, 2009, in the shoot-ing death of Alan Inzer — argued in his appeal that he was denied a fair trial. He said the court twice refused to change the trial venue, and that the 40-year prison term he received was excessive.

In its ruling, the appel-late court said the attor-ney for Pegues, charged with second-degree murder, didn’t present sufficient evi-dence to warrant a change of venue.

As for the sentence, the appeals judges said Judge David Ritchie didn’t abuse discretion in imposing a 40-year term.

WASHINGTON — Is that the same Bobby Jindal? Is that the Louisi-ana governor who, as recently as last year, argued, “There has never been a challenge that the American people, with as little interference as possible by the federal government, cannot handle”?

If so, Jindal, a conservative Republi-can, has undergone a stunning politi-cal transformation. He has spent the last several weeks demanding that the federal government do more — much more — to interfere with the oil slick that’s soiling the beaches, marshes and fisheries of the Louisi-ana coast.

He isn’t the only one. U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann — a Minnesota Republican and tea party favor-ite who doesn’t even like the U.S. Census — wanted to know why Obama had not “commandeered” boats to deal with the spill. A govern-ment takeover of private property, congresswoman?

The politics of the oil spill are foul, slippery and ruinous to a well-main-tained image — much like the actual oil now lapping up on the shorelines of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama

and Florida. President Obama has not escaped the gooey mess; his Republican critics are trying hard to tar him with the same image of incompetence that stuck to President Bush after his inept handling of Hur-ricane Katrina.

And it’s not just the president’s par-tisan critics who have attacked him with enthusiasm. So has Democratic stalwart James Carville, who wants Obama to get in there and ... well ... do something. The amusing inside-the-Beltway consensus seems to be that the president should yell and cuss more, as if that would plug the well.

Obama could spend his time in front

of the TV cameras much more pro-ductively than fuming and fretting over the colossal failures of BP and the Minerals Management Service, the federal agency that became the lapdog of Big Oil. Instead, he ought to use this calamity to remind Ameri-cans of the huge price we pay for our dependence on oil. An administration that is famous for not wasting a crisis is on the verge of letting a teachable moment go by unexploited.

The cerebral president ought to know better than to believe that the oil slick disaster speaks for itself. It doesn’t. The voters need to hear him connect the dots from the gas pump to the oil spewing into the Gulf of

Mexico.Obama created a bit of a bind for

himself a few months ago when he relied on Big Oil’s braggadocio about its expertise. Having called for more offshore drilling, he told an audi-ence, “It turns out, by the way, that oil rigs today generally don’t cause spills. They are technologically very advanced.” He has since acknowl-edged that he was wrong to put so much faith in technology — or in Big Oil.

But that’s hardly a fatal error for proposed energy legislation. The simple truth is that the United States is so dependent on oil that we will have to continue offshore drilling for years to come — albeit with much better federal regulation.

Obama should remind the country that if we don’t start to shift from oil now, in 50 years the entire Gulf Coast may be a disaster area, per-manently closed to beachgoers, bird watchers and fishermen. He doesn’t want that for his daughters, and most Americans don’t want that for their children, either. He should also remind voters that the U.S. military has spent decades entangled in the

troubled Middle East largely because of our dependence on oil.

“This is a chance to turn a trag-edy into an opportunity,” said Drew Westen, Emory University psychol-ogy professor and expert on politi-cal communications. “Americans are really ready to hear that the way to end their dependence on foreign oil is to end their dependence on oil.”

There are signs that Obama is finally finding his voice. Speaking in Pittsburgh, the president vowed to “work with anyone from either party” to pass a bill that would sup-port alternative fuels such as wind and solar energy. Top White House aide David Axelrod told me that Obama “believes strongly that the spill underscores the need to develop alternative sources of energy. ... There is heightened awareness that allows us to move forward this year.”

Let’s hope so. It would be a colossal failure if the president emerged from this environmental fiasco with only tar balls to show for it.

JobsVoting against them proves impossible

Suppose you were buying a car, a Ford, say. Would it be wise to visit your local Chevy dealer’s parts department and spend $5,000 or so for a Chevro-let engine, just in case the Ford’s engine doesn’t work out?

That is what the U.S. House did last week, but on a far larger scale. Late Thursday night, the House voted to keep $485 million in next year’s defense budget for “backup” engines for Lockheed-Martin’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. The money is part of a larger $3 billion backup-engine plan.

None of the armed services that will fly the F-35 want backup engines. Lockheed-Martin, which is building the F-35, doesn’t want them. The Bush administration didn’t want them and the Obama administration doesn’t want them either.

But 231 members of the House want them, Democrats and Republicans alike. Noted mem-bers of the Republican “govern-ment spending is out of con-trol” caucus, including Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio, Eric Cantor of Virginia and Mike Pence of Indiana, want them because they’re not going to vote

against jobs in their districts.Since 2004, Congress has allo-

cated more than $1.5 billion for redundant engines. Defense Sec-retary Robert M. Gates recently said, “We in DOD must make tough choices and decisions to ensure that current and future military combat capabilities can be sustained in a time of budget stretches.”

But the House has allowed political interests to override the nation’s economic and security interests. Defense spending is not the only place this happens, but it’s the most expensive place.

The Pentagon has ordered 2,443 F-35s; when Lockheed beat out Boeing Co. for the contract in 2001, the planes were bud-geted at $59 million each. That has ballooned to $112 million, or $130 million each when research and development costs are apportioned.

Lockheed chose Connecticut-based Pratt & Whitney to supply the F-35’s engines. But because the Pentagon buys warplanes in “lots” or batches, the losing bidder — a consortium between General Electric and Britain’s Rolls Royce — kept its foot in the

door. Suppose the P&W engines on the first batches of F-35s don’t work out, GE/Rolls asked. How about we work on later lots?

The spare engines are part of the massive $567 billion defense appropriations bill and could be stripped out in the Senate. Senate Armed Services Committee member Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., is on the fence. “We may not be able to afford it in this instance,” she said.

Her concerns do not extend to Boeing’s C-17 cargo plane; 900 St. Louis workers build C-17 compo-nents. The Air Force says it has plenty of C-17s already, and Gates tried to kill the program last year. Congress funded 10 more anyway, but Gates still is intent on killing the program. He wants President Obama to veto the appropriations bill if it includes the C-17 and spare engine programs.

Nobody thinks this president will do that, but he should. Even-tually, one is going to have to. As long as congressmen play to their districts at the expense of the nation, this is not going to stop.

Q: My husband and I are both 55. Should we continue to put money into a term life

insur-ance policy that we have been paying on for many years? Or should

we cancel these policies and invest the monthly payments? — D.L., via e-mail

A: There are several vari-ables that would come into play in making a decision about your term life insur-ance. First of all, there are those who are going to say you didn’t develop any cash value, which is why term insurance is a lousy buy. What is not taken into account: During those years you and your

husband were comforted by knowing that if the insured passed away there would be money for the survivor. I’ve always hoped that my insur-ance companies, which I have almost all of my insurance in the form of term, make a ton on me — I want to keep living. You have to determine whether you want to have that insurance protection for the beneficiary of these polices? If not, then by all means, you can cancel them and continue to take the premiums and invest them. Generally, if you have had these polices for a long period of time, it would very likely be better to keep them in effect but that’s a very per-sonal judgment only made after you take in the variables that I have described.

LAKE CHARLES, La. — Three companies have expressed interest in obtain-ing the gaming license that was relinquished by Pinnacle Entertainment in April.

The Louisiana Gaming Commission received let-ters of intent to apply for the license from Tomorrow Investors in Lake Charles, Saint Gabriel Downs in Lafayette and Peninsula Gaming in Dubuque, Iowa.

The gaming commission sent out a public notice requesting letters of intent to apply for the license after Pinnacle announced it would not build Sugarcane Bay.

The next Gaming Control Board meeting is Tuesday.

Foreclosure rate holdsas banks hold back

WASHINGTON — The foreclosure crisis appears to be leveling off.

The number of people facing foreclosure is nearly flat from a year ago, accord-ing to the latest report from a private foreclosure listing service. A third fewer people are receiving legal warnings that they could lose their homes. And foreclosures are receding in some cities.

Still, the number of foreclo-sures remains high. Experts caution that a big reason for the stabilization is that banks are letting delinquent bor-rowers stay longer in their homes rather than adding to the glut of foreclosed proper-ties on the market. New con-sumer protection laws, which

vary by state, have also meant borrowers can spend more time in their homes.

A new wave of foreclo-sures could be coming in the second half of the year, espe-cially if the unemployment rate remains high, mortgage-assistance programs fail, and the economy doesn’t improve fast enough to lift home sales.

“It’s not anything like a recovery yet,” said Rick Sharga, a senior vice presi-dent at RealtyTrac Inc., a foreclosure listing service.

RealtyTrac reported today that nearly 323,000 house-holds, or one in every 400 homes, received a foreclo-sure-related notice in May. That was up 0.5 percent from a year earlier but down 3 per-cent from April. The report tracks notices for defaults, scheduled home auctions and home repossessions.

Government bashedon AIG bailout

WASHINGTON — A watchdog panel said it’s still unclear whether U.S. tax-payers will ever fully recoup the $182 billion they plowed into American International Group Inc., and the govern-ment should have used up all its options before bailing out the crippled insurance titan.

The government could have acted sooner and more aggressively to engineer a privately funded rescue of

AIG in September 2008, the Congressional Oversight Panel said in a new report released today.

The bailout had a “poison-ous” effect, the report says, because now the markets believe the government will commit taxpayer money to prevent the collapse of big financial institutions and to repay their trading partners.

AIG executives and the Treasury Department have given “optimistic” assess-

ments of the company’s value, the report says, noting that the Congressional Budget Office estimates tax-payers will lose $36 billion. Much of the money needed to repay the government will come from the sale of assets.

“The uncertainty lies in whether AIG’s remaining business units will generate sufficient new business to create the necessary share-holder value to repay taxpay-ers in full,” the report said.

40 killed in suicide attackat Afghan wedding party

NADAHAN VILLAGE, Afghanistan (AP) — A sui-cide bomb ripped through a wedding party for a family with ties to police in the Tal-iban’s heartland in Afghani-stan, killing at least 40 people and wounding dozens more, officials said today.

The Taliban denied carry-ing out the attack, but strong suspicion fell on the insurgent group because it has previ-

ously attacked allies of the government or Afghan secu-rity forces.

The blast hit in an area that is largely considered a Tali-ban haven, and village resi-dents said they believed they were attacked in an air bom-bardment. Mohammad Ras-sool, a cousin of the groom, said helicopters were circling above the compound before the explosion.

Thinking ahead: Children labled ‘generation Net’ before they grow upCHICAGO (AP) — They

aren’t even out of grade school. But already, people are trying to name the youngest up-and-coming generation, and figure out who they might be and how they might be different from their predecessors.

At a loss for something more original, many call them Gen-eration Z, because they follow Generations X and Y.

They’ve also been referred to as Generation Net or “iGen,” since they’ve never known a world without the Internet.

That’s the one point most everyone can agree on — that they are the tech-savviest gen-eration of all time, so much so that even toddlers can maneu-ver their way through YouTube and some first-graders are able to put together a PowerPoint presentation for class.

But beyond that, who are they, really?

Most people agree it’s just too early to know for sure. But that hasn’t stopped marketers from trying to figure out this young crowd of consumers. Or employers from attempt-ing to prepare for them in the workplace.

Parents, too — many of them Gen Xers — are weighing in,

saying they are raising a dif-ferent brand of kid than baby boomers did.

“I would like to think that ideally, and this might be a bit naive, Gen Xers are a bit more freethinking and not necessar-ily as compelled to keep up with the Joneses,” says Kris Son-

nenberg, a teacher in Chicago and 38-year-old mother of three children, ages 8, 12 and 17.

Many parents also think the recession will play a role in shaping who their kids are, and perhaps make them less “enti-tled,” a label that — fair or not — has been slapped frequently

on Generation Y, also known as the “millennials.”

OK, so, let’s take a look at the picture that’s emerging of Gen Z, for what it’s worth. They’re young — roughly age 12 or younger.

Generational expert Neil Howe says determining who

these youngsters are still is very much a work in progress.

Howe, who coined the term “millennials,” says 2008 may turn out to be one year with a big influence on this genera-tion, due to both the recession and the election of the nation’s first black president.

He is calling them the “home-landers” because they are growing up in a time of “greater public urgency and emergency, both at home and around the world.”

For that reason, he speculates they could be a new version of the so-called Silent Generation, the group that grew up in the Depression era, who saw the country through World War II and who birthed the baby boomers. That elder genera-tion was pegged as hardwork-ing and anything but entitled.

Janet Reid, who also has spent time looking at this latest gen-eration, thinks that’s a pretty fair appraisal.

“It won’t be taken for granted that prosperity is guaranteed,” says Reid, a managing partner at Global Novations, a firm that helps corporations develop and attract workers and understand generational differences.

Because they’re so hooked

into screens of all kinds at a such a young age, she sees Gen Z as more conscious of world events. “They’re not just out playing hopscotch,” she said.

Seven-year-old Ryan Cook’s parents have noticed many of these traits in him.

Asked what a recession is, he’s able to tell you that it has to do with the economy and the fact that his parents can’t always buy him the things he wants, like video games. “But I think that’s fair,” he said.

Like a lot of kids his age, he gets frustrated when he has to sit through TV commercials. He uses his dad’s laptop by himself with ease. And though he doesn’t have a cell phone, he wants one (partly because his 12-year-old brother has one).

And in many instances, their parents are getting them those gadgets, says Nicole Williams, a 39-year-old mom of three who’s also a fifth-grade teacher in Seattle.

“They have quick fingers, good muscle strength in those fingers,” Williams says, laugh-ing as she refers to the many technological devices her stu-dents use in and outside class.

months after being replaced by Moffett, but eventually resigned.

Since 2004, Dent said he’s been working for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a fraud investigator. He said he will resign that post before re-joining the police department.

“I’m excited about the things Chief Armstrong and I have discussed thus far, and I’m looking forward to getting back to work as a police officer,” Dent said on Wednesday by phone from West Virginia, where he was on assignment.

Unlike the appointments of Deputy Chiefs Scott and John Dolan last fall — which included an open discussion of Armstrong’s recommenda-tions at a September mayor and aldermen meeting fol-lowed by a public swearing-in ceremony on Oct. 1 — offi-cials did not even announce Dent’s appointment after their closed session Monday. Only after being questioned by The Vicksburg Post on Wednesday did they offer any comments.

Armstrong said no formal announcement about Dent’s appointment was made on Monday due to Dent being out of town. He added a

public swearing-in ceremony might take place if it fits into Dent’s schedule.

South Ward Alderman Sid Beauman said there was also no discussion.

“I had no idea it was even on the agenda,” Beauman said. “I got passed an action form with (Dent’s) name on it and that was the first I’d heard of it. I passed it to the mayor without signing it, he signed it, Michael (May-field) signed it, and that was it.” Beauman said, he did not sign off on it because, “I just don’t know if bringing him back in that position is a smart move.”

North Ward Alderman Michael Mayfield said Arm-strong first mentioned Dent’s name to him for the deputy chief job “sometime last week,” and was told he had the best credentials among several candidates.

“He’s been there before and he’s very much aware of how that department runs,” May-field said. “I think he did a very good job while he was there, and I have no doubt that he will do a good job again.”

When asked for a com-ment on Dent’s appointment, Mayor Paul Winfield simply said he supports Arm-

strong’s recommendation. “This was the chief’s choice

and, of course, I support my chief because he has done a very good job of leading the police department,” Winfield said. “Mitchell Dent has a strong educational and law enforcement background, and he has a strong history with our police department.”

Dent likely will be paid more as a deputy chief than he did as chief nine years ago. When he left the depart-ment his salary was reported as $52,400 annually. Arm-strong said he expects Dent to start his new appointment at the same pay Scott and Dolan received when hired, about $68,000 per year.

Armstrong said Dent will oversee all department oper-ations, as Scott did during his short time with the VPD, and also will work to get the department accredited on the state and national levels. The Commission on Accredi-tation for Law Enforcement Agencies is the only accredi-tation organization nation-wide, while state accredita-tion is garnered through the Mississippi Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission.

“It’s a huge project. Only about 12 departments in the state are accredited,”

Armstrong said. “There’s a lot of benefits of it. One, it brings more credibility to the department, and it also allows you to upgrade all of your policies and proce-dures inside the department. There’s also the possibility of getting a reduction on our insurance rates.”

An added layer or two of oversight also would be pro-vided by achieving accredita-tion, said Armstrong, as both the state and national pro-grams require continual per-formance reviews to ensure compliance with minimum standards. Dent said getting state and national accredi-tation was something he began working on during his time as chief, and is excited

to have the opportunity to finish the job.

“We started looking at it, but we never had the chance to get it in place,” Dent said. “It’s an excellent program, and I hope we can get it done this time.”

Outside his work in law enforcement, Dent and his wife, Deborah, in 2001 founded Mount Carmel Ministries on Grove Street, where both are pastors.

Moffett, who retired as chief in Biloxi before being appointed and serving eight years here, is now chief in Indianola. Former Vicks-burg Deputy Chief Richard O’Bannon has joined him as deputy chief in that city.

as the financial and envi-ronmental toll of the seven-week-old disaster grows.

Out in the Gulf, meanwhile, the oil company captured more of the crude that’s been gushing from the bottom of the sea since April and began bringing in more heavy equipment to handle it.

The containment effort played out as BP stock con-tinued to plunge amid fears that the company might be forced to suspend dividends and find itself overwhelmed by the cleanup costs, penal-ties, damage claims and law-suits generated by the big-gest oil spill in U.S. history.

But markets were also beginning to heed warn-ings from analysts who said Wednesday’s 15.8 percent sell-off of BP shares in New York was an overreaction. BP shares dropped as much as 11 percent to a 13-year low at the open in London this morning, then recovered some ground by early after-noon, trading 6.1 percent lower at $5.39. In New York, the stock opened 9.8 percent higher at $32.05.

BP has lost around half its market value since the spill began with the April 20 rig explosion that killed 11 work-ers and set off the spill in the Gulf. In the seven weeks since then, the company has lost half its market value. In a federal filing today, the company said the cost of its response to the oil spill has grown to $1.43 billion.

The latest slide came after Interior Secretary Ken Salazar promised a Senate energy panel to ask BP to compensate energy compa-nies for losses if they have to lay off workers or suffer economically because of the Obama administration’s six-month moratorium on deep-water drilling.

At the bottom of the sea, the containment cap on the ruptured well is capturing 630,000 gallons a day and pumping it to a ship at the surface, and the amount could nearly double by next week to roughly 1.17 million gallons, said Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, head of the crisis for the government.

A second vessel expected to arrive within days should greatly boost capacity. BP also plans to bring in a tanker from the North Sea to help transport oil and an incinerator to burn off some of the crude.

The government has esti-mated 600,000 to 1.2 million gallons are leaking per day, but a scientist on a task force studying the flow said the actual rate may be between 798,000 gallons and 1.8 million.

Rescuing oiled birds: Poignant, but is it futile?FORT JACKSON, La. (AP)

— Inside a warehouse-turned-refugee encampment for ani-mals soaked with oil, rescue teams wash acrid goo from the matted feathers of brown peli-cans and other seabirds and try to nurse them to health.

Wildlife rescue organizations have carried out this mercy mission after many oil spills in recent decades, hoping to save as many creatures as possible. Of all the efforts by all the workers and volun-teers responding now to the nation’s worst offshore spill, the attempts to cleanse these animals and set them free tug hardest on the heartstrings.

Even if the results are up for debate.

Critics call bird-washing a wasteful exercise in feel-good futility that simply buys doomed creatures a bit more time. They say the money and man-hours would be better spent restoring wildlife hab-itat or saving endangered species.

In the seven weeks since oil began erupting from a mile-deep well after a drill-ing rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico, more than 150 pel-icans, gulls, sandwich terns and other birds have been treated at a rehabilitation center 70 miles south of New Orleans.

A total of 442 birds in the Gulf region have been col-lected alive with visible oil; 109 oiled birds have been found dead. More are on the way, as

oil slicks assault beaches and marshes that serve as breed-ing areas for many species.

The victims are scrubbed clean and held a week or more to recover. Then a Coast Guard plane flies them to Tampa Bay in Florida for release — far enough away, workers hope, that the birds won’t return to oiled waters and get soaked again. Birds treated from this disaster have been tagged, and none has been spotted in oil again.

It’s all part of a broader animal care initiative over-seen by federal agencies and operated largely by non-profit groups, with funding from BP PLC. Other centers focus on turtles and marine mammals.

“All of us here taking care of the wildlife feel it’s impor-

tant,” said Rhonda Murga-troyd of Wildlife Response Services in Houma, La. “We can’t just leave them there — somebody has to take care of them.”

A noble sentiment, said Ron Kendall, director of the Insti-tute of Environmental and Human Health at Texas Tech University. But the hard real-ity is that many, if not most, oiled creatures probably won’t live long after being cleansed and freed, he said.

“Once they’ve gone through that much stress, particularly with all the human handling and confinement, it’s very dif-ficult,” Kendall said. “Some species might tolerate it better than others, but when you compare the benefits to the costs ... I am skeptical.”

The arm of the federal gov-

ernment that nominally over-sees offshore rigs agrees with Kendall.

“Studies are indicating that rescue and cleaning of oiled birds makes no effective con-tribution to conservation, except conceivably for spe-cies with a small world pop-ulation,” the U.S. Minerals Management Service said in a 2002 environmental analy-sis of proposed Gulf oil drilling projects. “A growing number of studies indicate that cur-rent rehabilitation techniques are not effective in returning healthy birds to the wild.”

Fewer than 10 percent of brown pelicans that were cleaned and marked for trac-ing after a 1990 spill in South-ern California were accounted for two years later, while more than half the pelicans in a con-

trol group could be found, three scientists with the Uni-versity of California, Davis, reported in a paper published in 1996. The formerly oiled birds also showed no signs of breeding.

Dan Anderson, a professor emeritus of conservation biol-ogy at the University of Cali-fornia at Davis who led the study, said last week he still questions how well the rescue missions succeed but doesn’t oppose them.

“If nothing else, we’re mor-ally obligated to save birds that seem to be saveable,” Anderson said.

Besides, bird rehabilitation groups have improved their methods the past couple of decades, he said.

A 2002 study by Humboldt State scientists found that gulls treated after a Califor-nia spill survived just as well as gulls that were not oiled. Rescue supporters also point to data of high survival rates for penguins receiving care from a foundation that has handled 50,000 oiled birds.

Rescue missions can convey a false impression that damage from oil spills can be fixed, said Jim Estes, an ecologist who worked on the federal effort to save animals after the Exxon Valdez spill in 1989. “Oil may be doing a species consider-able harm, but rehabilitation won’t change that. It will just help a relatively small number of individuals from suffering and dying.”

SIDELINESUSC hit hard byNCAA sanctions

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Two media outlets are reporting the NCAA has decided to ban Southern California’s football team from the postseason for two years and strip the program of scholarships.

The Los Angeles Times re-ported the NCAA sanctions include the loss of more than 20 scholarships. ESPN.com reported Wednesday night that the Trojans will forfeit wins “from at least the 2004 season.”

USC is also expected to face probation and pos-sible limits on football re-cruiting contacts after the NCAA’s four-year investiga-tion into the school.

The NCAA’s report could be released today, al-though school officials wouldn’t confirm Wednes-day they had received the NCAA’s report.

The NCAA infractions committee held a hear-ing with USC officials last February, and its report has been expected weekly since April. USC’s penal-ties are expected to stem primarily from widespread allegations of improper benefits for Heisman Tro-phy-winning tailback Reg-gie Bush during his three seasons at the school. The NCAA, the Pac-10 and even the FBI conducted investi-gations into the Bush fam-ily’s business relationships and USC’s responsibility for the culture around its mar-quee football team.

The Trojans’ football team won seven straight Pac-10 championships and two national titles during the past decade under Pete Carroll, who left to coach the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks after last season.

No BCS conference foot-ball programs have been banned from postseason play over the past seven years.

College athletics are on the verge of a cataclysmic shiftA couple of football sea-

sons ago, the Big 12 was the toast of the college football world as Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State were all in the national title hunt and their games became must-see TV in primetime.

Now, the Big 12 just might be toast.

The 11-team Big Ten is gnawing around the north-ern perimeters to see if it can pry away Missouri and Nebraska from the soon-to-be extinct Big 12. The Pac-10 has offered spots to Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, and Colorado, according to several reports.

With all of this growing more likely by the day, it will be a cataclysmic shift in the college football landscape. The Big 12 will be as dead as Janet Jackson’s career after her wardrobe malfunction.

Another conference, be it the Big East or the Atlantic Coast Conference, could be gobbled up as well in a feeding frenzy of expansion.

It could have been averted if Notre Dame had done the logical thing, ended its long-time status as an inde-pendent and joined the Big Ten, giving it the 12 teams it needed to host a conference title game.

Either way, it’s going to be a wild few weeks.

What does this mean for the Southeastern Confer-ence? A magic eight-ball

would be as accurate as pre-dictions on what happens at this point.

If the 16-team megacon-ference is the future of the college football landscape, does the SEC need to join the crowd? The cons are many. Traditional rivalries would be jeopardized, especially such cross-divisional ones as Auburn and Georgia. Travel costs for the non-revenue sports would rise, especially if the conference expands its geographic footprint like the other two possible 16-team leagues. Just imagine the travel costs in an expanded Pac-10 that stretches from Texas to the Pacific.

As for the pros, it would allow the SEC to get an even bigger portion of the revenue pie from TV contracts and disperse more money to its member institutions.

The conventional wisdom is that the expanded Pac-16

and Big 16, with all of the penetration in all of the big media markets, would crowd out the SEC because of the expanded numbers of eyeballs watching the broadcasts.

That is true, on the sur-face. SEC country, popula-tion-wise, can’t compete with either one of those possible megaconferences.

But this conceit covers up one key fact: all of those other markets have other distractions. Major League Baseball, the NBA and, of course, the NFL are part of a busier sports landscape.

Down here, SEC football is king. You can’t drive five miles in the South without seeing a car with some kind of allegiance on the bumper or on the back window or flapping in the breeze from a window.

The religious fervor is what separates SEC football from

the rest of the pack. In few other places do 93,000 folks pack the seats for a spring scrimmage. And with the ink dry on the ESPN and CBS TV deals, the best football in the country, despite its regional affiliation, is avail-able in nearly every home in the country — unless you’re living in a van down by the river.

Diluting the brand that has won the last four national titles is not the way to go for the SEC. Besides, students of history will recall the case of the Western Athletic Confer-ence, which expanded to 16 teams in 1996 and split up in 1999.

A dozen is delicious, but 16 is four teams too many.

Vicksburg’s Creel moves up to the principal’s officeBy Jeff [email protected]

When asked how many wins he’s had in an 11-year coaching career at Vicksburg and six more at four other places, Jamie Creel could not come up with an answer.

One number that he could come up with was the number of players he has had that have earned college baseball scholarships — 36.

On Wednesday, Creel told

his play-ers that he resigned as Vicks-burg High’s head base-ball coach. On June 24, Creel will become an assistant principal at Vicksburg High School. He will replace former

Warren Central coach Randy Broome. Broome was appointed in May as the principal at Redwood Elementary.

For the record, Creel’s mark at Vicksburg High has been undeniable. He turned an urban city program known for its basketball teams into one of the most respected baseball program in Mis-sissippi. Over the last three years, the Gators have gone 63-33. In 2008, they finished

28-10 and advanced to Trust-mark Park to play in the Class 4A state championship series against East Central.

“I was never one to get caught up with the number of wins I had. I was always more about player develop-ment. What mattered most to me was the relationship I had with my players. I guess, if you had to say about the wins, it’s probably approach-ing 300. But ask me the number of brother combina-

tions that I’ve coached and I say it’s exactly 17,” Creel said.

One of those brother combi-nations was the Henry broth-ers, Justin and Jordan. Both are in major league baseball organizations after outstand-ing college careers at Ole Miss playing for coach Mike Bianco.

“It’s those relationships that I had with those kind of

ChicagowinsStanleyCup titleBy The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — For a moment, Patrick Kane was the only one who knew the Chicago Black-hawks had won the Stan-ley Cup.

As he skated to the other end of the ice, his team-mates quickly joined in the celebration that ended 49 years of frustration for the Blackhawks without a title.

Kane sneaked the puck past Michael Leighton 4:06 into overtime and stunned Philadelphia to lift Chi-cago to a 4-3 overtime win in Game 6 on Wednesday night for their first

Diamondbacks clip BravesBy The Associated Press

PHOENIX — Arizona wound up with a bizarre victory, Nate McLouth with a big headache.

Gerardo Parra hit an inside-the-park home run when Atlanta outfielders McLouth and Jason Hey-ward collided in the eighth inning, giving the Diamond-backs a 2-1 victory over the Braves on Wednesday night.

Arizona trailed 1-0 when Parra hit a drive to right-center. The ball hit off the heel of McLouth’s glove as he ran into Heyward.

McLouth spun around and fell backward, his head slamming on the ground. He stayed there face-down for several minutes before he was able to get up and walk off the field.

“He kind of slid and undercut me,” McLouth said. “I think at that point I flipped over and hit the back of my head on the ground. It’s a good thing I didn’t dive because it could have been a lot worse, but I whacked my head pretty good.”

Heyward got up and tracked down the ball to start a relay to the plate that was too late. It was Parra’s first career inside-the-park homer and the seventh in Diamondbacks history.

Parra said he thought he would have a double in the gap at best.

“I just hear the third base coach say ‘Go, go, go,”’ Parra said.

McLouth and Heyward were intently watching the ball as they approached each other.

“It split them perfectly,” Atlanta manager Bobby Cox said. “Both of them

are way above average outfielders.”

Both outfielders ran so far that neither could call the other off, McLouth said.

“If it falls between you, you look like an idiot,” he said. “If we both make the extra effort for it, some-

times unfortunately that’s what happens. It was pretty much unavoidable.”

Peter Moylan (2-1) hit Mark Reynolds with a pitch to lead off the Arizona eighth. It was a tough way to end Moylan’s string of 123 appearances, a span of 1021⁄3 innings over nearly two years without giving up

a homer.Ian Kennedy blanked

minOR LEaGuE basEbaLLM-Braves end DiamondJaxx win streak at 10

JACKSON, Tenn. — The Missis-sippi Braves ended the West Ten-nessee Diamond Jaxx’s winning streak at 10 games after posting an 8-4 win Wednesday at Pringles Park.

The M-Braves used a pair of three-run innings to snap their own four-game skid and also win the final game of the five-game series. They scored three in the first off hits and runs from Antoan Richardson, Donell Linares and Eric Duncan.

West Tenn got two runs back and then the rain came causing a one hour, 25-minute delay. When play resumed the Diamond Jaxx tied the game at 3 in the fifth.

Mississippi took the lead for good in the sixth when Michael Daniel walked, stole second and then scored on Alejandro Machado’s groundout. A Diamond Jaxx error led to another run to make it 5-3.

West Tenn got a run back to cut it to 5-4 but the M-Braves answered with three in the ninth to put it away.

Linares started the rally with a double and scored on a Mario Gomez single. That was followed by another Diamond Jaxx error, a wild pitch and an RBI single from Cody Johnson to up the lead to 8-4.

Jacob Thompson (3-4) picked up the win and Lee Hyde got his fifth save of the season.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Avery Johnson says he has agreed to become the coach of the New Jersey Nets, the NBA’s worst team.

In a text message to The Associ-ated Press on Wednesday, John-son said he thinks the Nets will announce the deal today.

The current ESPN analyst coached Dallas for three-plus sea-sons, going 194-70 in the regular season and 23-24 in the playoffs.

cOLLEGE fOOTbaLLJackson State losesscholarships after report

JACKSON — Jackson State Uni-versity’s football team felt the wrath of the NCAA on Tuesday after the program’s dismal showing in the Academic Progress Rate was released.

In one of its harshest decisions since the APR took effect in 2005, the NCAA ruled that JSU will lose 6.3 scholarships it can apply toward its team next season.

The APR is used to track aca-demic achievement at Division I schools. Teams must score at least a 925 out of 1,000 points or face pos-sible sanctions, including scholar-ship losses and postseason bans. It is updated based on a four-year roll-ing average and focuses on retain-ing athletes and keeping them aca-demically eligible.

JSU’s football program scored an 872 — down from an 879 in the 2008-09 academic year. The Tigers also face practice reductions and were put on public notice.

The move to administra-tion, however, has been in the works. Creel was prepared to leave after his historic 2008 season with the Gators. The position did not come open and he returned for two more years with the Gators, going 19-11 in 2009 and 16-12 in 2010 with a completely overturned roster.

“I was approached a couple of years ago about going into administration. They thought it would be something I would be good at. During 2008, I had to shift some gears to do the 40 hours of course work. For two years it was rough mentally. But I felt I needed to take this in a new direction. Since I’ve been at the school for the last 11 years, I know the faculty and I know the students. I have to thank the Vicksburg High administration like Mr. (Doug) Branning, Mr. (Char-lie) Tolliver and Mr. (Derrick) Reed for helping me take this step,” Creel said.

Vicksburg-Warren School District Athletic Director Lum Wright, Jr., said he talked with Reed about the resignation on Monday and then placed an advertise-ment for the job on the Mis-sissippi High School Athletic Association’s website.

“We both felt it was really important to get the two week advertisement done as quickly as possible. We’ll take applications until June 21st and then begin inter-views the week of June 22-23,” Wright said.

Creel said he felt obligated to help the school find a new coach before July 1, when high school coaching con-tracts in Mississippi are nor-mally finalized.

“I felt they shouldn’t need to wait until July 25 to name a new coach,” Creel said. “It would put the new coach in

a bind. I know there will be a lot of experienced head coaches and some very good assistant coaches who will look at this job. Bazinsky Field is one of the best base-ball facilities in the state. We also have a good group of sophomores from the past season, that in two years, when the school moves to 5A, will have a shot to win state.”

Wright thanked Creel for his service.

“If I could hire Jamie Creel tomorrow, I would,” Wright said. “He did a wonderful job with the baseball program at Vicksburg High School. He was very successful. That’s why it’s important to get a new coach as soon as pos-sible. We want to keep that momentum going.”

Creel said he hopes the new coach will be able to continue to keep the com-munity involved with the program. One of the high-lights of Creel’s tenure was his coaching the Vicksburg age 16-and-under all-stars in the Babe Ruth Southwest Regional in 2007.

“That was one of the most memorable experiences as a coach here in Vicksburg,” Creel said. “We took kids from Vicksburg and Warren Central and played together as one team for this city. It was one of the most gratify-ing things I’ve done through baseball.”

Creel said he will miss most is the relationship his two young sons, Chandler and Cooper, had with the Gator players.

“That’s going to be the sad-dest part about all this. My two boys loved being around the players. Getting to ride the bus with them. It was the best thing in the world for them,” Creel said.

Creel also thanked his wife, E.J. The couple just recently had their third child, a daughter, Camille.

championship since 1961.No one but the Blackhawks

appeared to realize what was going on for a few frozen moments. Kane and his line-mates knew the puck had found the side of the net. The goal light never went on, but that didn’t stop most of the Blackhawks from storming the ice and mobbing each other in celebration.

“I tried to sell the celebra-tion a little bit,” Kane said. “Everyone came down, and I think some of the guys were still kind of iffy to see if the puck was in the net.”

Oh, it was in, a brief video replay confirmed — and the Blackhawks revival from the bottom of the NHL to the elite was complete.

“I believed in him,” said captain Jonathan Toews, the

Conn Smythe Trophy winner as playoff MVP. “I don’t think he would have thrown his gloves off like that if he wasn’t 100 percent sure.”

Kane will go down as scor-ing one of the biggest goals in team history.

He raised his arms right away and skated behind the net, knowing the goal was good. While the Flyers sat on the bench in stunned silence with confused looks, the Blackhawks began to celebrate in their own end around goaltender Antti Niemi.

“I was just hoping to God it was just an actual goal or we would be celebrating for nothing,” Toews said.

Before reaching the group hug, Kane stooped to pick up some loose ice shavings.

Ryan did it for the Boston Braves in 1925. Chad Qualls pitched a scoreless ninth for his 12th save in 16 tries.

“He pitched his rear end off again,” Cox said. “We got him absolutely no runs.”

Doubles by Heyward and Brian McCann off Aaron Heilman (2-1) had put Atlanta up 1-0 in the eighth.

In Arizona’s half of the inning, Reynolds was hit and advanced to second on Chris Young’s sacrifice bunt.

Parra, who had not hom-ered this season, lofted a high fly. McLouth, who had made a brilliant, diving catch earlier in the game, never took his eyes off the ball as he ran it down. Neither, apparently, did the 6-foot-4, 220-pound Heyward, and it was obvious who was going to get the worst of that run-in.

“I wasn’t going to win that one,” McLouth said.

Diamondbacks players cringed at the collision but

welcomed the win, their eighth of 11 home games sandwiched around an 0-9 road trip.

Cruise to bring ‘Tropic’ character backTom Cruise is bringing his foul-mouthed, hairy-handed Holly-

wood producer character Les Grossman back to the big screen.Paramount Pictures and MTV Films say they’re developing a

film around the fictional character that Cruise brought to life in 2008’s “Tropic Thunder.”

The 47-year-old actor reprised the role at Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards.

Cruise and Ben Stiller are among the producers of the film. Paramount said Wednesday that Cruise is in talks to play Gross-man.

Cruise can next be seen on screen in “Knight and Day,” due in theaters later this month.

King’s wife recovering from apparent ODA spokesman for Larry King

said Wednesday that the talk-show host’s wife is recovering after an apparent prescription drug overdose last month in Utah.

Emergency medical work-ers were called to Shawn King’s home in Provo on May 28. Her father dialed 911 after find-ing the 50-year-old woman in her bed, breathing but not responding when he tried to wake her, according to a transcript of the emergency call, which was released through an open-records request Wednesday.

Karl Engemann told the dispatcher that he thought she may have taken too much medication for anxiety or depression.

Officers who responded to the call found several prescription bottles, including Ambien and anti-anxiety medication, that had been filled within 10 days but were empty, according to a police report. It also said there was a handwritten note that indi-cated she had taken the pills intentionally.

Another note expressed Shawn King’s desire to be buried in Utah, police said.

The 40-year-old singer-songwriter’s hits include “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” “You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like This,” and “Courtesy of the Red, White, & Blue.”

The “Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular,” hosted by Craig Fer-guson of “The Late Late Show,” will be televised nationally on CBS.

Obscenities-laden summons draws fireAn Arizona man who bluntly expressed his displeasure about

being called to jury duty has landed himself in legal hot water.Timothy Michael Jones was ordered to appear Tuesday in

court to explain why he sent back a jury questionnaire with ob-scenities written in black marker. He failed to show and Yuma County Superior Court Judge Andrew Gould issued a bench warrant. Jones now faces a charge of indirect criminal con-tempt, which carries possible penalties of six months in jail and a fine of up to $300.

Court records show Jones was sent a jury summons last month telling him he had been randomly selected as a prospec-tive juror along with the questionnaire.

CMT awards

Fans hand Carrie Underwood two winsNasHVILLE, Tenn. (aP)

— The fans love Carrie Under-wood and they proved it again during the CMT Music Awards.

The former “American Idol” champ won Wednesday night’s top honor, video of the year for “Cowboy Casanova,” and CMT performance of the year for “Temporary Home” two months after making history by winning her second Acad-emy of Country Music Awards entertainer of the year. Both awards are chosen by fans tuned into the live shows.

She was the night’s only mul-tiple winner.

“They were there before I had anything, an album, a record deal, a tour or anything like that,” Underwood said after the show. “They built me from the ground up.”

The CMT Awards, which are chosen exclusively by fan voting, were another salute to some of country music’s top young stars. Lady Antebellum continued its scorching run by winning group video of the year for the trio’s crossover hit “Need You Now” and Miranda Lambert taking female video of the year for “White Liar,” her first No.1 song.

“Tonight’s all about the fans,” trio member Dave Haywood said after receiving the belt buckle trophy given to winners. “Thank you fans!”

Lambert followed up three wins at the ACM Awards with yet another win. She jumped up and pumped her fists as she made her way through the crowd and shouted, “My first buckle! This rocks!” when she reached the stage.

Lambert’s “White Liar” video features the red-hot singer ditching her dishonest hus-band-to-be at the alter for his cheating ways. It was the first time she put on a wedding dress. The second time will come when she weds fiance Blake Shelton.

“Let’s just hope that my next wedding doesn’t end up like that video,” she told the crowd.

Keith Urban won male video of the year for “’Til Summer Comes Around.” After sending a shoutout to his wife, actress Nicole Kidman, who attended the awards, he turned serious and talked of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

“I want to send my deepest love to all the families around the gulf, who are going through an insane time right now,” Urban said.

A few minutes later Urban lit up the stage with a scorching guitar duel with John Mayer as the two played “Hit The Ground

Runnin’.”“John Mayer and Keith Urban

making love on guitars,” the show’s host, Kid Rock, said.

It was one of the hottest per-formances in a night full of them.

The CMT Music Awards usu-ally skew lighthearted and with the rowdy Kid Rock hosting, things quickly got interesting.

The good times started imme-diately when he was joined

on stage by surprise guest Hank Williams Jr., who rarely attends awards shows, Trace Adkins, Zac Brown, Jamey Johnson, Randy Houser, Mar-tina McBride and Kellie Pick-ler for a medley of “Cowboy,” “Bawitdaba” and “Good Ol’ Boys.”

Kid Rock called Williams, “My rockin’ rebel father Boce-phus,” before saying: “Does anybody realize how hard it

is to get Bocephus out of the house? I don’t think you under-stand this. The party has just begun.”

The surprises continued later when “Saturday Night Live” star Kenan Thompson showed up in a green dress and red wig doing his Reba McEntire impersonation. He sang a few lines of a Reba song, then was joined on stage by McEntire.

“Um, ma’am, I’m in the middle of a song here,” Thompson said to McEntire, who also wore a green dress.

“What are you doing?” McEn-tire asked.

“I’m Reba!” Thompson shouted. “R to the E to the B to the A. Reba!”

Kid Rock smoked a cigar on stage and told a few bawdy jokes, including one aimed at Lady A, “the hillbilly Fleetwood Mac.”

“But I don’t suspect they do drugs or sleep with each other,” he said.

Lady A was one of four hot young acts who led all nomi-nees with three apiece on the fan-voted awards show. Also nominated for three awards were Carrie Underwood, who took CMT performance of the year, Taylor Swift and Jason Aldean.

A field of 10 video of the year nominees was whittled down at the start of the show to “Need You Now,” Toby Keith’s “Ameri-can Ride,” Lambert’s “White Liar,” Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me” and Under-wood’s “Cowboy Casanova” making the cut.

Brooks & Dunn continued to draw attention as they wind down their career together. They won duo video of the year for “Indian Summer.”

Japan dolphin hunt filmtriggers censorship debate

TOKYO (aP) — Controversy over “The Cove,” an Oscar-win-ning documentary about the annual dolphin hunt in a Japa-nese village, has widened into a debate over free speech in the country.

Three theaters last week can-celed showings of the movie after they were swamped with angry phone calls and threat-ened with noisy protests by nationalist groups. It was banned on a U.S. military base in Japan as too controversial, and 23 other theaters are still deciding whether to show the film, according to Japanese dis-tributor Unplugged.

After the cancellations, a

group of Japanese journal-ists, academics and film direc-tors signed a letter urging the theaters not to back down and saying the issue “underlines the weakness of freedom of speech in Japan.”

Freedom of speech is guar-anteed in Japan’s constitution, but many Japanese are wary of unruly demonstrations.

On Wednesday, over 600 people crammed into a civic hall in Tokyo for a rare chance to see “The Cove,” with lines forming hours before the doors opened and viewers spilling out into the lobby to watch via a video feed.

Pistol-packing parishioner causes unease in flockDear Abby: My parents told

me that a member of their con-gregation carries a licensed gun when he’s in church. He is not a law enforcement officer or a private security guard, but keeps the gun on him “for protection.” When I asked what the pastor has to say about this, I was told, “He doesn’t know or can’t do any-thing about it.”

I suggested that Mom and Dad speak to the congregation board of directors because they are legally and financially responsible for the church. They refused even though they are not happy about this gun issue.

My parents have a history of complaining about things but doing nothing. If some-one needs to carry a gun at all times, I don’t want to be in his presence. If he’s the target of an assassination, the killer might shoot the wrong person. I will not set foot in the church as long as that man is there.

I’m not sure what bothers me more — that this man is

packing heat or that my par-ents have valid concerns and won’t speak out. What do you think? — Gun-Shy in N.Y.C.

Dear Gun-Shy: If the man has a license to carry the gun, then he is breaking no laws. You are certainly within your rights to refrain from being in his presence. If your parents were really concerned about their safety, they would either talk to the pastor or go some-where else to worship. Because they have done neither, I think you should let it go.

Dear Abby: I am the oldest of three. Our mother was ver-bally and physically abusive while we were growing up. I now suspect she suffered from bipolar disorder, but back then no one had any idea what it

was or how to treat it.Her behavior drove our

father away, leaving her to manage finances on her own. She made a miserable mess of it and, at 70, is still work-ing. She wants to retire, but has almost nothing in sav-ings. Because of the way she treated us, none of us wants much to do with her, and we are in no position to support her after she retires.

The problem, Abby, is that she has started laying an enor-mous guilt trip on my 22-year-old daughter and wants her to take her in. I caught wind of it and stepped in. There is no way my daughter should be burdened caring for her grandmother for the next 20 years. I feel bad that she has nowhere to go, but I feel she’s reaping what she has sown. Am I wrong? — Guilt-Trippin’ in New Hampshire

Dear Guilt Trippin’: No. But has your mother ever been diagnosed as bipolar? Is she on medications now that help her to control her behavior?

If the answer is yes and she has tried to make amends, then perhaps you should try to be more forgiving and forth-coming. If the answer is no, then taking her in would be a disaster.

Dear Abby: My husband thinks it’s hilarious to sneak up and scare the daylights out of me. I have told him repeat-edly that I don’t think it’s funny and it triggers anxiety attacks, but he won’t listen. Any sug-gestions? — Not Laughing in Greenville, N.C.

Dear Not Laughing: Just this: What he’s doing is imma-ture and sadistic. Humor at the expense of others isn’t “play-ful” — it is hostile. Because it is causing anxiety attacks, consult your doctor and let the doctor explain to your hus-band why it’s a bad idea.

Fit woman questionsshortness of breath

Dear Dr. Gott: I am con-cerned about blocked arter-ies. I am 60, 5-feet-5, and 115 pounds. I exercise three times a week, do 400 stairs a day, and walk two miles. My total cho-lesterol is 180, and the good/bad ratios are within good limits. I don’t have any prob-lems with my blood pressure. I have an annual physical exam and blood workups.

However, lately, when doing my stairs, I experience occa-sional shortness of breath. I have a family history of stroke through my mother and father. Could I have some type of blockage? Should I request a stress test?

Dear Reader: Yes, you should. While you don’t men-tion your diet, I can only assume it is a healthful one. Otherwise, it’s likely that your HDL, LDL and total choles-terol levels would be out of the normal range. You men-tion routine exams and lab work but don’t indicate that you have ever had a baseline EKG. You exercise extensively but have a positive family his-tory that could be of concern. And you are 60. My guess is that you are a young 60, but because you even question the possibility of blocked arteries, you should request a stress test. Your physician should order one because of your age and the shortness of breath.

A final possibility is that your problem is arising directly from your lungs. Request a chest X-ray and evaluation for possible pulmonary disease.

Dear Dr. Gott: Please explain where the idea of drinking “eight glasses of water a day” comes from. I have found no logical explanation.

Dear Reader: Water makes up almost 60 percent of a per-son’s body weight and is vital for our well-being. It flushes toxins from the system, car-ries nutrients to all cells, and keeps us properly hydrated. So how much is too much?

There is no scientific basis for the amount of fluids a person should ingest. Eight glasses of water daily is simply an easy rule of thumb. The recommen-dation for all fluid intake is 9 cups for women and 13 cups for men. This includes coffee, tea, milk, breakfast juices, soup broth and so forth. Keep in mind that we lose almost four cups of fluids daily because of sweating, urination, bowel movements and breathing. Then there’s humidity, illness, the occasional fever and exer-cise to consider. People who live in humid areas, have spe-cific disorders, or are physi-cally active may require addi-tional fluids because they sweat more than someone sit-ting behind a desk.

Unless a medical condition or daily routine dictates dil-igent attention to fluid con-sumption, it certainly isn’t necessary to keep a check-list. Don’t allow yourself to become dehydrated; drink

when you are thirsty. If you plan to hike, jog, play tennis, or perform physical activity, take along a water bottle and hydrate periodically.

Hydrate at appropriate times throughout the day and include a glass of water with meals. If your diet is a health-ful one, you should have your fluid intake covered.

DEAR ABBY

DR. PETERGOTT

ASKTHEDOCTOR

Teens: We in the United States and Canada like to think that we are world leaders when it comes to the health and safety of our citizens. Most often it’s true, but when it comes to tobacco smoking, Singapore has the most stringent laws on earth.

Cigarette packages are required to have health warnings dis-played on both sides. In addition, there are two new warning messages: “Smoking kills” and “Smoking harms your family.”

Establishments or people caught selling to minors face fines of $6,300. And while in uniform, members of the military who smoke in public will be fined and disciplined. Smoking is now banned in all restaurants, supermarkets, department stores, museums, theaters, libraries, indoor sports arenas, public trans-portation and government offices.

Singapore is also hard on teens who smoke. Fines of $30 are imposed on anyone under the age of 18 carrying cigarettes in public, whether or not they were actually smoking. A fine of $60 is assessed for the second and all subsequent offenses. It’s the parents’ responsibility to see that the fines are paid. If not, par-ents are subjected to spending a night in jail. Teachers are also required to fine students who break the law.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 16 and have dropped out of high school. I now realize that this was a mistake and want to return, but my high school won’t let me. What can I do? — Nameless, Chicago.

Nameless: Have one of your parents talk with the principal. And if you still are not admitted, have a parent talk with the school superintendent. If that doesn’t get results, take your case to the board of education.

Dr. Wallace: My boyfriend and I started a sexual relationship about two weeks ago. Today, he told me that he just found out that he has genital herpes, but he didn’t think it was serious.

I talked with my best friend and she said it was incurable and life threatening. Is this true? — Nameless, Davenport, Iowa

Nameless: Symptoms of genital herpes, or herpes simplex 2 (it’s related to the common cold sore), include small clusters of painful fluid-filled blisters in the genital area, combined with fever and aching muscles. For people with normal immune sys-tems, the condition is bothersome rather than life threatening.

If you have become infected, you’ll have periodic outbreaks throughout your life, particularly at times when you’re under stress. Visit a doctor, and stop the sexual relationship.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Don’t hesitate to show apprecia-tion for the slightest thing your pals do for you today. People could resent not being thanked. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Be careful not to manipulate oth-ers if they don’t handle things the way you like. One or more strings might snap before you realize what has happened.Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t hesitate to say no if anybody, even a close friend, should make of you what you consider to be an unreasonable request. You can find a way to be nice about refusing the appeal.Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — When it comes to competitive em-broilments, the odds are likely with the other guy, so steer clear of situations in which there is a clear winner and loser.Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — This is not the best possible day for trying to interest others in an idea of yours, so hold off if you can. If you can’t for some reason, make your pitch as simple as possible. Don’t be coy or wordy.Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Though, many times, things can go easier when someone is in a relaxed mood, you couldn’t find a worse time to cut a business deal than when another is trying to enjoy him/herself socially. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — When negotiating an agree-ment, you must be firm regarding the position you take. If you’re too lax or indifferent, the other guy will get the edge.Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Your two worst enemies could be impatience and impulsiveness. Either could give you a bad time.Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Even people who are near and dear can be thoughtless. Should your feelings be wounded, re-solve the situation immediately so that things don’t fester.Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — Make certain anything you pur-chase can be returned. There is a strong chance that what looked so beautiful in the store won’t look so well on you or in your home.Aries (March 21-April 19) — Be careful about teasing anybody, because people in general are more likely to take offense with the smallest of things at this point in time. To be on the safe side, play it straight.Taurus (April 20-May 20) — An attitude of “I must have it now” could severely damage your budget. To be on the safe side, steer clear of all of your favorite shops where you could get into big trouble.
