Thomas Lanier LoweryDr. T.L. Lowery, an Apostolic
statesman, 87, died peacefullyin his home on Sunday, Feb.21, 2016.
His son, Steve, and hisdaughter-in-law, Jan, were athis side as he transitioned intohis heavenly home. When hegreeted his savior Jesus, youcould almost hear, “Well DoneThou Good and FaithfulServant.”
He was born Jan. 12, 1929,in Eastman, Ga. Thomas LanierLowery was one of six childrenwith a family heritage steepedin the Pentecostal tradition.
He came to a saving knowl-edge of Jesus Christ on NewYear’s Day 1943. By 1954, hehad pastored four congrega-tions, married his sweetheart,Mildred Woodard, and wel-comed their son, StephenLanier, into their lives.
While in Galax, Va., restlessin his spirit, he felt compelled tofulfill the mantle of full-timeevangelism. To make endsmeet, he sold Kirby vacuumcleaners on the side. He wasso successful, Mr. Kirby himselfoffered him $100,000 a year (inthe early 1950s) and most ofthe eastern coast as a territory.
Torn by this, he fasted andprayed alone for 21 days.During the last days of the fast,God said to him, “I didn’t callyou to be a salesman, I calledyou to preach the gospel.” Heresigned his position and livedby faith in God ever since.
From 1954 through 1969were years of divine appoint-ments across the nation andaround the globe for evangelistLowery. Traveling with a tentthat could accommodate10,000 worshipers, he followedGod’s guidance with crusadesin over 115 nations and everystate in the U.S.A. The nameT.L. Lowery was synonymouswith spiritual power, fire-from-heaven sermons and miracu-lous healings. Summers includ-ed week after week of ministryat Church of God camp meet-ings. Testimonies were fromthousands whose lives havebeen forever changed — physi-cally and spiritually — and con-tinue to characterize the anoint-ed ministry of T.L. Lowery.
In 1969, he became the sen-ior pastor of the historic NorthCleveland Church of God(1969-1974), one of the oldestcontinuing Pentecostal church-es in the world. He acceptedthis call of God and built a new,modern 1,200-seat auditorium.
This latest building was com-pleted under Pastor MitchMaloney in 2005. During hispastorate, he also built theNorth Cleveland Towers, a sen-ior citizens apartment complex.
He was elected to the Churchof God International ExecutiveCommittee in 1974, andremained in that position until1981. This was the year Godquickened his spirit and placeda burden on his heart for thenation’s capital — a church inWashington, D.C. During hispastorate in Washington (1981-1996), his leadership placedthe National Church of God ona trajectory that would catapultits influence in and around thenation’s capital, guiding thecongregation through numer-ous building programs, estab-lishing community ministries,exponential growth, the con-struction of a 4,000-seat sanc-tuary, and the construction of410 apartments for the elderlyand median-income families.
He, as a prominent denomi-national leader, served 16years on the Church of GodInternational ExecutiveCommittee and 34 years on theInternational ExecutiveCouncil.
Over the years, he devotedlyserved as a member of theboards of the NationalAssociation of Evangelicals(NAE), National ReligiousBroadcasters (NRB), and thePentecostal and Charismatic
Churches of North America(PCCNA).
His civic involvement inUnited Way, Rotary and theChamber of Commerce wasexemplary. He wrote more than30 books, was published ininspirational magazines, andwas a contributing writer fornumerous publications.
While serving in Washington,he ministered within theNational Security Council,Department of Transportation,Justice Department, CoastGuard, Pentagon and StateDepartment.
In January of 2016, He wasChaplain of the Day and prayedover the Tennessee House ofRepresentatives, and onMonday, Feb. 22, 2016, theTennessee House ofRepresentatives paused for amoment of silence to honor thelife and ministry of Dr. T.L.Lowery.
During a lifetime of dedicatedChristian service, his exampleof anointed ministry leadershiphas inspired thousands ofyoung ministers and influencedcountless laypersons. Thelegacy of T.L. Lowery’s ministrywill reveal his passion for evan-gelism, commitment to the HolySpirit, dedicated to divine heal-ing and his apostolic ministry.His commitment to mentoringfuture leaders led him to startthe T.L. Lowery GlobalFoundation, whose goal is toencourage effective ministry inthe model of this faithful ser-vant.
Through periodic trainingevents, he mentored and coun-seled leaders — both presentand future — for effective min-istry. His apostolic ministry willbe felt for years to come withinthe Church of God and thePentecostal/Charismatic world.
T.L., as he was affectionatelyknown, was preceded in deathby Mildred, his beloved wife of66 years; his parents, Otis andHettie Lowery; Mary Williams,his eldest sister; and his broth-ers: Aubrey, Egbert (Ed) andMaxwell.

From Staff Reports
This time of year is a perfectoccasion to accept the challengeto “Be a Force of Nature,” asCleveland Bradley CountyEmergency Management Agencyis proud to be promoting pre-paredness for severe weather.
To help spread the word andmake its employees and mem-bers of the community better pre-pared, CBCEMA is committed tobeing a leader for weather-readi-ness by helping people take thelead in knowing the risks, takingaction and being an example.
Sponsored by the FederalEmergency Management Agencyand the National OceanicAtmospheric Administration,National Severe WeatherPreparedness Week is a nation-wide effort designed to increaseawareness of the severe weatherthat affects everyone as well asencourage individuals, familiesbusinesses and communities tobe ready in the event of a severeweather event
Each year, many people arekilled or seriously injured by tor-nadoes and other types of severeweather, despite advance warn-ing. In 2011, there were morethan 1,000 weather-related fatal-ities in the United States andmore than 8,000 injuries.
Severe weather knows noboundaries and affects everyindividual, and because of this,the local EmergencyManagement Agency is commit-ted to ensuring the safety ofBradley County and is calling oneveryone to “Be a Force ofNature.” Knowing your risk, tak-ing action and being an exampleare just a few steps you can taketo be better prepared and assistin saving lives.
Several activities are set forSevere Weather Awareness Week,which continues throughSaturday. They include:
— All Schools Tornado Drill,Wednesday, at 1:30 p.m.
— Statewide CommunicationsExercise, Thursday at 10 a.m.
— CBCEMA has also sched-uled a weather readiness class inMarch as part of preparednessefforts: Weather Spotter Class,March 17, from 6 to 8 p.m.,Cleveland State CommunityCollege George R. JohnsonCultural Heritage Center Theater,3535 Addison Drive Cleveland TN37312.
No registration necessary, andthe venue seats 400. The classwill be brought to you by theNational Weather Service –Morristown; Law EnforcementAcademy; AuxiliaryCommunications Services; andBradley County EmergencyManagement Agency.
Studies show that many people
use social media in the event of adisaster to let relatives andfriends know they are safe. Thisis an important trend becausepeople are most likely to takepreparedness steps if theyobserve the preparations takenby others.
Social media provides the per-fect platform to model prepared-ness actions for others. For thisreason CBCEMA is asking you topledge and take the followingsteps:
Know your risk: The first stepto becoming weather-ready is tounderstand the type of haz-ardous weather that can affectwhere you live and work, andhow the weather could impactyou and your family. Check theweather forecast regularly,obtain a NOAA Weather Radio,and sign up for localized alertsfrom emergency managementofficials. Severe weather comes inmany forms, and your shelterplan should include all types oflocal hazards.
Take action: “Be a Force ofNature” by taking the pledge toprepare at Ready.gov/severe-weather. When you pledge toprepare, you will take the firststep to making sure that you andyour family are prepared forsevere weather.
This includes developing afamily communication plan, put-ting an emergency kit together,keeping important papers andvaluables in a safe place, and get-ting involved. Visitwww.Ready.gov/severe-weatherfor more on family preparednessfor severe weather.
Be an example: Once you havetaken action and pledged, shareyour story with your family andfriends. Create a YouTube video,post your story on Facebook,comment on a blog, or send atweet.

‘Be a Force of Nature’— EMA events prepare for severe weather
4 hurt as student opens fire in Ohio school cafeteria
HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) — A 14-year-old boy pulled out a gun in aschool cafeteria Monday andopened fire, hitting two students,and then ran from the school,threw the weapon down and wasapprehended nearby with the helpof a police dog, authorities said.
Two other Madison LocalSchools students also wereinjured, possibly from shrapnel orfrom running away. None of theinjuries appeared to be life-threat-ening, said Butler County SheriffRichard Jones.
Jones said the 14-year-old wasa student and there was a motiveto the shooting which he did notidentify. The boy was charged pre-liminarily with two counts ofattempted murder, two counts offelonious assault, inducing panicand making terrorist threats,Jones said.
Students were eating in thecafeteria when the shooting hap-pened around 11:30 a.m., Jonessaid. Afterward, classmatesdescribed a chaotic scene wherethey weren’t sure what was hap-
pening at first.Thirteen-year-old Shelby
Kinnin said she heard “a couple ofbangs” and realized she was nearthe shooter.
“I didn’t really know it was gun-shots until I looked over and a kidwas grabbing his leg and fallingover,” she said.
Many people ran from thescene, and the shooter went out adoor, she said. She recognizedhim as a boy who was in a classwith her last year, though shewasn’t sure of his name.
Her stepmother, StephanieKinnin, said it was unnerving tosee emergency responders swarmthe school.
“There is no feeling like that inthe world,” she said. “But my eyesfound the children walking outlooking for parents, and that washeartbreaking. Their eyes justtold the story.”
The students who were shotwere 14 and 15 years old andwere taken to a hospital wherethey were in stable condition,investigators said.

super tuesday:
Clinton, Trump hope to pull away from rivalsWASHINGTON (AP) —
Republican Donald Trump andDemocrat Hillary Clinton are eye-ing an opportunity to pull awayfrom their rivals on SuperTuesday, a delegate-rich dashacross the country that couldaccelerate their march toward thegeneral election.
Voters from Vermont toColorado, Alaska to AmericanSamoa and a host of states inbetween were heading to pollingplaces and caucus sites on thebusiest day of the 2016 primar-ies.
The contests come at a turbu-lent moment for Republicans asthey grapple with the prospect ofTrump becoming the party’snominee. Rivals Marco Rubio andTed Cruz are engaged in a franticeffort to stop the billionaire —with Rubio in particular lobbingsurprisingly personal attacks —but it was unclear whether they’dmade their move too late.
Trump said his supportcrossed party lines and has evenbrought Democrats into the GOP.
“We’re getting people into theparty that they’ve never hadbefore,” he told ABC’s “GoodMorning America” on Tuesday. “Ican tell you the one personHillary Clinton doesn’t want torun against is me.”
Like Trump, Clinton has wonthree of the four early voting con-tests, including a thrashing ofrival Bernie Sanders in SouthCarolina on Saturday. Her victorythere was due to overwhelmingsupport from black voters, put-ting her in position for a strongshowing in several Southernstates with large African-American electorates that voteTuesday.
Clinton has increasinglyturned her attention to Trump inrecent days, casting herself as acivil alternative to the insults and
bullying that have consumed theRepublican race.
“What we can’t let happen isthe scapegoating, the flaming,the finger pointing that is goingon the Republican side,” she toldvoters gathered in Springfield,Massachusetts. “It really under-mines our fabric as a nation. So,I want to do everything I can inthis campaign to set us on a dif-ferent course.”
Sanders, who has energizedyoung voters with his call for apolitical revolution, was seekingto stay close to Clinton in theSouth and pick up victories instates including Minnesota andhis home state of Vermont. ButSanders faces tough questionsabout whether he can rallyminorities that are coreDemocratic voters.
After he voted Tuesday in his
hometown of Burlington,Vermont, Sanders told reportersthat if voter turnout is high “weare going to do well. If not, we’reprobably going to be struggling.”
Democrats will vote in 11states and American Samoa onTuesday, with 865 delegates upfor grabs. Republicans will votein 11 states, with 595 delegatesat stake.
Trump was seeking to sweepthe South, which would be amassive blow for Cruz. The Texassenator, a favorite of the region’ssocial conservatives and evangel-ical Christians, expected theSouth to be his firewall, but nowis simply hoping to emerge with avictory in his home state.
Rubio’s goal on Super Tuesdayis even more modest. He’s seek-ing to stay competitive in the del-egate count and hopes to pull off
a win in his home state of Floridaon March 15.
The Florida senator has casthimself as Republicans’ bestchance to win in a general elec-tion and has received a flood ofendorsements from GOP officialsafter other more mainstreamcandidates dropped out. But he’sfailed to win a state so far, rais-ing questions about his strategyfor topping Trump.
Republicans spent monthslargely letting Trump go unchal-lenged, wrongly assuming thathis populist appeal with voterswould fizzle. Now party leadersare divided between those whopledge to fall in line behindTrump if he wins their party’snomination and others whoinsist they can never back him.
An Associated Press survey ofGOP senators and governors
across the country showed justunder half of respondents wouldnot commit to backing Trump ifhe’s the nominee. Their reluc-tance foreshadowed a potentiallyextraordinary split in the partythis fall.
“If he becomes the nomineethe Democrats are going to sav-age him, no question about it,”GOP Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch said.His Republican colleague fromArizona, Jeff Flake, said he was“still holding out hope” that hewouldn’t have to make the choiceabout supporting Trump.
The worries amongRepublicans appeared to growafter Trump briefly refused todisavow former Ku Klux Klanleader David Duke during a tele-vision interview. Trump said hehad not understood the inter-viewer who first raised the ques-
tion about Duke, and he did laterrepudiate him.
“Clearly that’s caused a lot ofconcern,” said Texas Sen. JohnCornyn, one of the lawmakerswho would back Trump as thenominee. “We’ve got about twoweeks to find out whether he’sgoing to continue his juggernautor whether somebody else ingoing to pull into the pole posi-tion. But right now it looks likeit’s his to lose.”
States holding voting contestsin both parties Tuesday areAlabama, Arkansas, Georgia,Massachusetts, Minnesota,Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas,Vermont and Virginia.Republicans vote in Alaska andDemocrats in Colorado.Democrats also have a contest inAmerican Samoa and forDemocrats Abroad.

NASHVILLE (AP) — Tennessee residentswere making their choices in the state’sSuper Tuesday presidential primary.
The primary comes after several days ofspirited campaigning around the state by allfive candidates seeking the Republicannomination and by one of the twoDemocrats remaining in the race.
Sixty-seven delegates are up from grabsin the Democratic primary, while 58Republican delegates will be split up amongany candidates that reach a threshold of 20percent of the vote.
While Tennessee Republicans have giventhe nod to religious conservatives in the lasttwo presidential primaries, Donald Trumphas drawn huge crowds and widespreadsupport in this year’s campaign.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has built a strongcampaign structure in Tennessee and hasheld several rallies around the state.
Republican Gov. Bill Haslam and Sen.Lamar Alexander have endorsed FloridaSen. Marco Rubio, who made the final can-
didate visit to the state Monday.“This is an election that we can and
should win, but we only win if we nominatethe right person,” Haslam told the crowd atthe Knoxville airport.
Alexander said he endorsed Rubiobecause “the stakes are high” in the generalelection this fall.
“If our nominee does not win the electionin November, Hillary Clinton’s justices willcontrol the Supreme Court for the next 30years, and we’ll have Obamacare forever,”he said.
Republican Sen. Bob Corker is aloneamong Tennessee’s three statewide electedofficials to decline to endorse a presidentialcandidate.
“I certainly plan to support theRepublican nominee and believe theAmerican voters will choose who they thinkis the best person to lead our country,”Corker said in an emailed statement.
Rubio and Cruz have stepped up theircriticism of Donald Trump in advance of
Super Tuesday. Trump held a large rallyoutside Memphis on Saturday, predictingbig wins in Tennessee and other states.
“We’re going to win Tennessee,” he said.“We’re going to win everything.”
Ben Carson also campaigned in Nashvilleand Memphis over the weekend, andRepublican Ohio Gov. John Kasich held aseries of town halls in Memphis, Nashvilleand Knoxville, complaining about the tenorof the debate among GOP candidates.
“Enough of this trash!” Kasich said at hisNashville event Saturday.
On the Democratic side, Clinton held arally at Meharry Medical College inNashville on Sunday, where she lamentedthe failure of efforts to expand Medicaid inTennessee.
“I’m really sorry that your state did notextend Medicaid to 200,000 workingTennesseans,” she said. “I’m going to dowhatever I can as president to convince gov-ernors and state legislatures.
“It’s a pretty big deal,” she said.
Tennesseans head to the polls for presidential primariesAlabama to be the hub ofSouthern tornadoes’ study
ATLANTA (AP) — About 40 sci-entists from around the nation areexpected to participate in “VOR-TEX Southeast,” an upcomingstudy of the unique characteristicsof tornadoes that develop in theSouth, weather researchers say.
Like earlier studies in theMidwest, the research based inHuntsville, Alabama, will includemobile radars, drones and otherequipment that can measure tor-nado intensity. It is set to runthrough March and April.
VORTEX, an acronym forVerification of the Origins ofRotation in TornadoesExperiment, began in the mid-1990s with a large tornado studythat helped inspired the Hollywoodfilm “Twister.”
Another large study, VORTEX 2,took place from 2009-2010.
This spring, researchers hope to
learn more about the mysteries ofSouthern tornadoes, such aswhether the landscape in theSouth gives them added power,and how to warn people at night,when many tornadoes strike in theSouth.
The research aims to find ways ofbetter forecasting tornadoes, com-municating warnings more effec-tively and finding out how the pub-lic responds to those warnings,according to documents from theNational Severe Storms Laboratory,which is involved in the planning.The Norman, Oklahoma-based labis part of the National Oceanic andAtmospheric Administration.
Unlike the original experiment,the latest iteration of the study willinclude several social scientists,who seek to learn more about howpeople respond to tornado threatsin Southern states.
NEW YORK (AP) — Meal deliv-ery kits can save you time, spareyou stress, and might even cutyour food bill if you’re eating outa lot. But which ones are actuallyworth it?
I spent a month cooking din-ners using ingredients packagedand shipped by Blue Apron,Hello Fresh, Purple Carrot,Plated and Marley Spoon. Eachbox contained makings for threedinners for two. The AssociatedPress picked up the tab and thecompanies weren’t aware that Iwas doing reviews.
We’ve listed the weekly cost foreach service, along with what Iactually paid as a result of first-week promotions.
You can read my overall reviewof the meal-kit approach athttp://apne.ws/1RfLMTf
—-BLUE APRON ($60 weekly,
$40 for the first week with anonline promotion)
This is probably the bestknown meal-kit delivery servicein America. It’s also the leastexpensive. But I don’t think it’sthe best.
Nothing was bad, but nothingreally wowed me either. Some ofthe entrees tasted generic, likesomething you’d get at a chainrestaurant, including things likeun-labeled rolls and premadesauces with no ingredients listed.(Blue Apron will send you theingredient lists if you requestthem.) Even though I made themeals myself, they seemed moreinstitutional than ones madefrom scratch. On the upside, themeats were of good quality andthe shrimp came from the U.S.
But if you’re counting yourcalories, watch out. Two of thethree dishes I made actuallyserved three, instead of two,boosting the calorie count if youfinish the whole thing the way Idid with my husband.
The good news: Blue Apronoffers six meals to choose fromeach week, and there’s lots ofvariety. But this was the onlyservice I tried that blacked outcertain choices if you selectedothers. Blue Apron said it doesthat for internal efficiency, butsays it’s working on giving itscustomers more choices.
—-PLATED ($72 weekly, $48 with
a first-week promotion)Plated stands out because it
gives you the option to pay extrafor more upscale “Chef’s Table”entrees. I paid an extra $12 for atwo-person meal of wild Pacificsalmon with long beans andpotatoes. Even though I over-cooked the fish, this was a
favorite and worth the extracash.
The regular dishes also were astep up from Blue Apron’s. Apasta dish contained a generousamount of tasty, but funky-look-ing mushrooms I’d never triedbefore. A quick chicken stew wasnicely spiced.
You can also pay an extra $4per person to add dessert. Thissounded like fun, but the whole-wheat dark chocolate cookieswith cranberries I made were dis-appointing. The six tiny cookiesthe mix yielded looked like some-thing out of my daughter’s Easy-Bake Oven. And even in NewYork, $8 can buy you a few large,top-quality cookies from a bak-ery.
—-PURPLE CARROT ($68 weekly,
$38 with a first-week promotion)The fact that these exclusively
vegan meals were able to feed mymeat-loving husband with mini-mal whining says a lot.
Backed by food writer MarkBittman, the meals are designedto help people cut back on theirmeat and dairy intake, benefitingboth their personal health andthat of the earth.
The meals were fun and cre-ative. The company’s Korean veg-gie pancakes were a hit, as was abroccoli-and-butter bean pasta.
On the flip side, these alsowere the most time-consumingmeals to make, requiring me todo things like wash, peel andgrate multiple carrots. Somerecipes even ask you to pull outyour blender or food processor.
But the best thing aboutPurple Carrot is its customerservice. I had my subscriptionpaused, but there was a mix up
and the company sent me a boxanyway. In a panic, I emailedthem. Not only did I get a quickand friendly reply, they alsorefunded my money and told meto keep the box, which was waymore than I expected.
—-HELLO FRESH ($69 weekly
for a classic box, $59 for the veg-etarian box; $34 for a classicbox with a first-week promotion)
While customer service mayhave been Purple Carrot’s bestquality, it was Hello Fresh’sworst. I never received areminder email or shipping infofor my delivery, so I emailed thecompany. It took them two daysto answer. While my box didarrive as scheduled, the uncer-tainty had me scrambling to buygroceries just in case.
The food itself was fine.Dishes were creative but not too
weird, and came together fairlyquickly. But some of the ingredi-ents seemed cheap. Little pack-ets of hoisin sauce included arti-ficial red food coloring, while atube of sour cream includedpreservatives. And a shrimpdish labeled “make me first,”came with a rock-hard avocado,resulting in a last-minute trip tothe store.
Hello Fresh supplies completenutritional information, useful ifyou’re watching your sodium orsugar intake.
—-MARLEY SPOON ($61.50
weekly, $21.50 with a first weekpromotion)
Hands down, this was ourfavorite. Of all the companies, itoffers the best bang for yourbuck, with great food at reason-able prices.
The company, which is basedboth in New York and Berlin,sources many items from high-end New York providers such asmeats from Pat LaFrieda andcheese from Murray’s. Seafoodcomes from Sea to Table, whichpartners with small-scale sus-tainable wild fisheries.
A strip steak dinner, which Isomehow managed to not over-cook despite setting off mysmoke alarm, included a gener-ously sized piece of meat thatwas deliciously seasoned withjust salt and pepper and servedalongside mashed celery rootand roasted Brussels sprouts. Avegan dish of crispy tofu andpeanut noodles also was excel-lent.
The company, launched inApril 2015, currently serves theEast Coast and severalMidwestern states, but plans toexpand to the Atlanta area andthe West Coast by spring.
through files on potential nomi-nees and considering his options,Earnest said, adding that thepresident has not settled on ashort list and could still addnames to the mix.
Amid the unusually con-tentious circumstances, thepresident tapped a close adviserto lead the selection processwithin the White House. SeniorAdviser Brian Deese, who previ-ously led climate change negotia-tions, will work closely withWhite House counsel NeilEggleston throughout theprocess, the White House said.
For now, the White House isfocused on demonstrating that itis making an effort to consultwith the Senate — even if there’snot much give and take. OnTuesday, Obama plans to dis-cuss with Republican leaders thehistorical precedent for confirm-ing justices in a presidential elec-tion year, Earnest said.
“One of the things the presi-dent is interested in discussingis, actually, what happened in
1988,” Earnest said, notingAnthony Kennedy’s election-yearconfirmation to the court.Kennedy had been nominated byPresident Ronald Reagan the pre-ceding year. Both McConnell andGrassley voted in favor ofKennedy’s confirmation.
Republicans, meanwhile, arequick to note the history theyfind relevant: As senators, bothObama and Biden filibusteredPresident George W. Bush’s nom-ination of Samuel Alito.
WASHINGTON (AP) —President Barack Obama is dueto meet face-to-face Tuesday withthe Senate Republican leadersvowing to block his SupremeCourt nominee — no matter whoit is — with the hope of keepingthe seat open for a Republicanpresident to fill next year.
Senate Majority Leader MitchMcConnell, R-Ky., and JudiciaryCommittee Chairman ChuckGrassley, R-Iowa, are due at theWhite House midmorning for thesit-down with Obama, VicePresident Joe Biden, SenateMinority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., the ranking Democrat on the
committee. It will be the first timethe leaders have met sinceJustice Antonin Scalia’s unex-pected death last month set off aclash over the Supreme Court.
At another time, the gatheringmight have been a nod to the tra-dition of at least limited coopera-tion in naming and confirmingjustices to the nation’s highestcourt. The president might havefloated potential candidates;Senate opposition might havecome armed with their own pre-ferred names.
But in the current fight, ges-tures of collaboration seem moot.Neither side has indicated it willcome with much more than talk-
ing points.“Look, the president is open to
a discussion, but it would repre-sent a pretty dramatic reversal inposition for Mr. McConnell, whohas said that the presidentshouldn’t put anybody forward, tocome with a list of potential nom-inees,” White House spokesmanJosh Earnest said Monday. “Itmakes it hard for him to engageconstructively, until they changethat position.”
In a joint statement last week,McConnell and Grassley said theylooked forward to “reiterating”their belief that the electorateshould weigh in on a decision thatcould shift the ideological balance
of the court for a generation.They also suggested that the
White House might want to fill outthe meeting agenda with otheritems.
“We welcome the opportunity tofurther discuss matters of mutu-al interest, like the drug epidemicthat’s tearing communities apartacross our country,” they said.
Before McConnell heads to theWhite House, he is scheduled toaddress House Republicans attheir weekly meeting. The HouseGOP has been adamant — nohearings, no votes on a nominee
While the standoff continues,the president spent a significantpart of the weekend reading

Report: Cheap natural gas leads to more plants and pollution
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Thenation’s boom in cheap naturalgas — often viewed as a cleanenergy source — is spawning awave of petrochemical plants that,if built, will emit massive amountsof greenhouse gases, an environ-mental watchdog group warned ina report Monday.
The Washington-basedEnvironmental Integrity Projectsaid hydraulic fracturing of shalerock formations and otheradvances, such as horizontaldrilling, have made natural gascheap and plentiful — so plentifulthat the United States has begunexporting gas.
The watchdog nonprofit, whichsays its mission is to hold pol-luters accountable and championenvironmental laws, is led by EricSchaeffer, former director of theU.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency’s Office of CivilEnforcement.
Thanks to this energy boom, thegroup calculated that if 44 large-scale petrochemical developmentsproposed or permitted in 2015were built they would spew asmuch pollution as 19 new coal-fired power plants would.
The report said all these proj-ects potentially could pump about86 million tons of greenhouse
gases into the atmosphere eachyear. That would be an increase of16 percent for the industry’s emis-sions in 2014, the report found.
The report combined new natu-ral gas, fertilizer and chemicalplants and petroleum refineryexpansions projects. Natural gasis a prime ingredient in ammonia,a basic element in fertilizers.
Similarly, the report said natu-ral gas is important for chemicalmanufacturers of plastics andother products.
Seven refinery projects wereincluded because shale oil extrac-tion has surged along with frack-ing, the group said.
A bulk of these projects is inLouisiana, where 20 of the 44projects were found. In recentyears, Louisiana has embraced aslew of new facilities. The statehas long welcomed the oil and gasindustry.
The report found thatLouisiana’s projects would pro-duce the equivalent of 68 milliontons of carbon dioxide a year, or asmuch as 15 new coal powerplants. The state has six coalplants in operation today, thereport said. If built, the reportfound that Louisiana’s green-house gas emissions would go upby about 30 percent.

Tuesday Best Bets
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —Authorities are sounding thealarm about a new and deadlytwist in the country’s drug-addic-tion crisis in the form of a potentpainkiller disguised as other med-ications.
Tennessee officials say they’veseen two dozen cases in recentmonths of pills marked as the lesspotent opiates oxycodone orPercocet that turned out to con-tain fentanyl, a far more powerfuldrug. One official likened the dan-ger to users playing Russianroulette each time they buy a pillon the street.
In San Francisco, the healthdepartment blamed several over-doses last summer on lookalikeXanax containing fentanyl, whileCanada has issued warningsabout multiple recent cases oflookalike oxycodone pills contain-ing fentanyl.
And in suburban Cleveland,federal agents arrested a man thismonth after seizing more than900 fentanyl pills marked likeoxycodone tablets.
“These pills are truly a fataloverdose waiting to happen,” saidCarole Rendon, acting U.S. attor-ney in Cleveland.
Because fentanyl is cheap tomanufacture illicitly, dealers see achance to make more money bydisguising it as oxycodone, whichtypically can sell for more, shesaid.
Lookalike pills were likely toblame for some of the county’s 19fentanyl-related overdose deathsin January alone, said Dr.Thomas Gilson, the CuyahogaCounty medical examiner.
“People might otherwise say, ‘Iknow I can abuse this much ofoxycodone,’ and they may be in fora really, really bad surprise whenthey find out that’s fentanyl andnot oxycodone,” said Gilson.
The drug, typically used fortreatment of chronic pain in end-stage cancer patients, is 25 to 40times more powerful than heroin.Properly prescribed, it’s oftenapplied through a skin patch.Fentanyl produced for the illegalstreet market comes from Mexico,while chemically similar compo-nents have been traced to China,according to the U.S. DrugEnforcement Administration.
In a second Ohio indictment,federal authorities have charged aman with obtaining fentanyl fromChina that killed an addict towhom it was sold in Akron.
The DEA says fentanyl-related
overdoses killed more than 700people nationwide between late2013 and early 2015.
Mimicry of other drugs is oneway fentanyl is now being illicitlymarketed, the agency said.
“The fact that fentanyl has been
found in this form should hopeful-ly make people nervous that doabuse these types of opiate pills,that they could be getting theirhands on something even morelethal,” said DEA spokesman RichIsaacson.
China announced in October itwould regulate the sale and distri-bution of 116 chemical com-pounds used in the production ofsynthetic drugs, including acetyl-fentanyl.
The problem of lookalike fen-tanyl comes as the country strug-gles to contain a drug overdoseepidemic that began with illegaluse of prescription painkillersand developed into a heroin cri-sis.
Ohio experienced 502 fentanyl-related deaths in 2014, up from84 the year before. In all, 2,482people in Ohio died from acciden-tal overdoses in 2014, an 18 per-cent increase over the previousyear.
Nationally, the Centers forDisease Control and Preventionsays drug overdoses rose again in2014, driven by surges in deathsfrom heroin and prescriptionpainkillers. Overdose deaths inthe U.S. surpassed 47,000 — up 7percent from the previous year.
Heroin deaths also continued toclimb, by 28 percent to about10,500.
Despite these statistics and thedanger of lookalike pills, addictsaren’t always deterred, saidRendon, the acting U.S. attorney.

Safety head: Total Takata recall won’t make cars safer
DETROIT (AP) — The nation’stop auto safety regulator says animmediate recall of all Takata airbags wouldn’t provide significantsafety benefits and could exceedthe government’s legal authority.
A recall of all Takata air baginflators also would strain thenetwork for replacement partsand increase uncertainty forconsumers, Mark Rosekind,head of the National HighwayTraffic Safety Administration,wrote in a letter to a legislator.
Takata’s air bag inflators usethe chemical ammonium nitrateto create a small explosion thatfills air bags in a crash. But theycan explode with too much force,blowing apart a metal canisterand hurling shrapnel at driversand passengers. At least 10 peo-ple have died worldwide and 139have been hurt.
So far 14 automakers haverecalled 24 million U.S. vehiclesto replace the inflators. Theproblem has been linked to oldercars with long-term exposure tohigh humidity. That’s whyreplacement parts are being tar-geted to areas such as the U.S.Gulf Coast.
In a letter sent Friday to Sen.Bill Nelson, D-Fla., Rosekindargued that a broader recallcould divert parts from vehiclesat higher risk “while achievingno identifiable safety benefit.”
On Feb. 10, Nelson asked theagency to make Takata stopmanufacturing ammoniumnitrate inflators and urged it torecall all Takata inflators.Nelson and other lawmakersrequested a total recall of theinflators after a South Carolinaman was killed by a Takata dri-ver’s inflator when his pickuptruck hit a stray cow. The driv-er’s inflator in the man’s FordRanger pickup had not beenrecalled, and previous tests hadshown no problems that particu-lar type of inflator.
On Monday, Nelson said in astatement that he’s unhappywith Rosekind’s response. He’sstill concerned that the govern-ment is deferring to Takata onwhen to phase out ammoniumnitrate inflators. “If there’s onething we have learned from ourinvestigation, it’s that Takatacan’t be trusted,” said Nelson.

Tennessee is relyingmore on its freshmenlate in B-ball season
KNOXVILLE (AP) —Tennessee’s starting lineup isgetting younger as the seasonis getting older.
Injuries and inconsistencyhave forced the Volunteers intoa youth movement as theyhead toward the stretch run ofRick Barnes’ debut season asTennessee’s coach. In a 75-65loss to Arkansas on Saturday,Tennessee started three truefreshmen in one game for thefirst time since Feb. 3, 2007.
Those three freshmen — KyleA l e x a n d e r ,Shembari Phillipsand AdmiralSchofield — areprobable startersagain Tuesday when theVolunteers (13-16, 6-10SEC) visit surgingVanderbilt (18-11, 10-6).
“They’ve had probablya bigger role (thanexpected) because we reallythought that we’d get a lotmore out of the seniors as agroup - and (junior) RobertHubbs,” Tennessee coach RickBarnes said Monday. “That’swhat we thought going in.”
The newcomers have becomeparticularly essential latelybecause leading scorer KevinPunter Jr. has missed threestraight games with a stressfracture in his right foot. In theArkansas game, Tennesseealso played without Hubbs,who has an injured right knee.Barnes doesn’t expect Punterto play Tuesday and saysHubbs’ status for theVanderbilt game is uncertain.
Tennessee is trying to avoidits first losing season since2004-05.
“We’re fighters,” Schofieldsaid after the Arkansas game.“That’s one thing we do have inthis group. We’re fighters. We’regoing to fight to the end. ...That’s just who we are as ateam. We’ve got to sustain that.That’s one of the things that wedon’t do well. We don’t sustainthat fight through the wholegame.”
Although Tennessee hasdropped four of its last fivegames, the emergence of thethree freshmen provides hopefor the future. Not one of themwas rated among the top 250prospects in his class accord-ing to the composite rankingsof recruiting websites compiledby 247Sports, but all haveshown they can contribute atthe SEC level.
Schofield has made 17 startsand nearly recorded his firstdouble-double Saturday beforefinishing with 15 points andnine rebounds. Phillips hasstarted Tennessee’s last six
games and has averaged 14points and 3.3 assists overTennessee’s last three contests.
Alexander averages just 1.9points per game, but the 6-foot-9 forward has providedrebounding and shot blocking.
They’ll be joined next seasonby freshman point guardLamonte Turner, who wasruled ineligible by the NCAAthis season.
“At the end of every practiceevery day, it’s like clockwork,”Barnes said. “The last guys to
leave the practicecourt are Lamonte,Kyle and Admiralfor certain - thosethree guys. We’re
trying to get Shembari tounderstand that too, thathe’s got to be in there. But
those other three guysalong with the walk-onsare out there long past
(the time) practice is over.”Barnes said all three still
have plenty of room to improve.He wants Phillips and Schofieldto get more consistent ondefense. He also wantsSchofield to attack the basketmore aggressively andAlexander to have a quickerthought process and more of ascoring mentality
For now, the trio will try tohelp Tennessee spoil the NCAATournament hopes of its in-state rival.
Vanderbilt already beatTennessee 88-74 in Knoxvillelast month and has won five ofits last six games. WhileVanderbilt’s recent surge hasboosted the Commodores’NCAA Tournament resume,they can’t afford a home loss toa team with a losing record.
“The game here with Vandywas I still think the worst gamewe’ve played all year, and theyhad a lot to do with that,”Barnes said. “But it looks likethey’re playing arguably thebest basketball in the leagueright now.”

Bearettes earn region title
shot; returning to substateBy JOE CANNON
Banner Assistant Sports Editor
COOKEVILLE — After missing the TSSAASectional last season for the first time since CoachJason Reuter took over the program in 2010, theBradley Central girls are back in familiar territoryafter defeating Region 3-AAA Tournament hostCookeville Monday evening.
“We got off to a slow start offensively, but ourdefense bailed us out against a very good team ontheir home floor, which is very tough to do,”declared Coach Reuter after the 48-30 semifinalvictory.
Despite a cold shooting start, the sixth-rankedBearettes held the Lady Cavaliers scoreless in thesecond period before looking more like their offen-sive selves in the final 16 minutes, earningBradley a spot in Wednesday night’s region cham-pionship game and punching their ticket for thesubstate.
The Bearettes (29-3) will once again tangle witheighth-ranked Cumberland County (24-4) for the
region title. The Lady Jets knocked off McMinnCounty 67-46 Monday, in the late semifinal.
“Cumberland is a great team who has playedfive games this season in this (Cookeville) gym,while we’ve only played here tonight,” CoachReuter commented. “They have a great player in(Mackenzie) Isles, who is the leading scorer intheir program’s history.”
“We played them twice during the year, losingby one at their place and beating them by four atours. They know us and we know them. They liketo play the same type of up-tempo game we play,with a tough press, 3-point shooters and a gooddribble-drive offense.
“It should be an exciting game. They(Cumberland) should be sky high for it, so weneed to come in with the same enthusiasm,” headded of the 8 p.m. Wednesday tipoff.
The only Lady Jets loss in the last 19 gamescame Feb. 13 at Jim Smiddy Arena, while theBearettes are riding a 17-game winning streak
SHR move to Ford couldmean tension with Hendrick
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Alate caution at Atlanta MotorSpeedway gave Kevin Harvickone futile, final chance to beatJimmie Johnson.
The showdown went toJohnson and HendrickMotorsports in the first ofwhat could be a long season ofbattles between NASCAR’spowerhouse team andStewart-Haas Racing as theallies begin the yearlong dis-solution of their partnership.
SHR stunned the industry72 hours after the season-opening Daytona 500 byannouncing it will leaveChevrolet and its alliance withRick Hendrick at the end ofthis year. Tony Stewart andGene Haas are defecting toFord in a coup that very fewsaw coming. Even Hendrickadmitted Sunday to reportersthat SHR’s move “kind ofcaught me by surprise.”
SHR’s move to Ford is sur-prising on several fronts:
n Stewart is a GeneralMotors guy, and has been forall but one of his 18 seasonsas a NASCAR driver. He drove
Toyotas for one season at JoeGibbs Racing, his last beforehe bolted for a co-owner posi-tion at SHR.
n Harvick, one of the fourdrivers in the SHR stable, hasnever driven anything butChevrolets in his Cup career.He and Stewart both won Cuptitles for Chevrolet at SHR.
n Haas leaned on RickHendrick when he enteredNASCAR, and it was Hendrickwho helped broker the dealthat brought Stewart into therace team.
n As customers of HendrickMotorsports, SHR boughtchassis and engines fromNASCAR’s top team. A techni-cal alliance was formed, andby the time Harvick won the2014 title, the data sharingwas flowing back and forthbetween the two organiza-tions.
Alas, that’s where the prob-lems may very well have start-ed.
Few would deny that SHRhas outperformed Hendrickthe last two seasons, whichcouldn’t possibly sit well with
the folks at Hendrick. Howcould Harvick and Kurt Buschbe driving Hendrick equip-ment and beating Hendrickdrivers each week?
And somewhere along theline the relationship betweenJohnson and Harvick thatdates to their early racingcareers in California becamestrained. It was Johnson whowas in and out of Harvick’strailer during the 2014 seasonfinale, where the six-timechampion was an open bookand gave Harvick any advicepossible to aid Harvick’s bid towin his first Cup title.
Fast-forward to lastSeptember when the two madecontact in the opening race ofthe Chase for the Sprint Cupchampionship at Chicago.Johnson immediately went toHarvick’s motorhome after therace to defuse the situation,and Harvick exited his buspractically swinging. He hadno time to hear Johnson outand no desire to smooth outthe relationship.

Woods keeping everyoneguessing about his game
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.(AP) — Adam Scott knew the onlyway for him to remain relevantwas to win golf tournaments.
Tiger Woods has it far easier.All he had to do was hit one shotin a simulator.
The Honda Classic did not lackfor activity, even without thebeer-drinking bozos leaning overthe railing of grandstands on the17th hole to shout at SergioGarcia that the Spaniard should“go back to the European Tour”and at Adam Scott to put “twomore (balls) in the water.”
It started with Jack Nicklaushosting nearly two dozen poten-tial Ryder Cup players for dinner,a treat for anyone among the top40 in the U.S. standings. He saidhe talked about how to preparefor big events, though it was notclear what else could be gleanedfrom the night except to hang outwith golf’s greatest champion.
“I can’t imagine how themcoming over to have dinner at anold man’s house is going to helpany,” Nicklaus said.
It ended with Scott’s first victo-ry in 21 months. The affableAussie lost a chance at one of thebest rounds of his career when hemade a quadruple bogey on the15th hole Saturday and still shot66. The next day, he became afootnote in PGA Tour history asthe first player since 2009 tomake a quadruple bogey and stillwin the tournament.
Through it all, what generatedthe most conversation across thespectrum was Woods.
In a span of five days, specula-tion ranged from Woods beingunable to sit in a chair to Woodstaking full swings with the driver.A rumor on social media suggest-ed his back was so bad from twosurgeries late last year that hehad to recline his passenger’sseat as someone else drove hiscar. On Wednesday, he posted avideo on Twitter that showed him
hitting a 9-iron in a golf simula-tor. A report followed the next daythat he was swinging a driver.
Perhaps that’s why Nicklauswas so hesitant to say anythingon Sunday.
Woods is a Ryder Cup vice cap-tain and was at the Nicklaus din-ner, and the players said helooked to be doing well. So didNicklaus.
“He says he was feeling good ...and he was able to stand over aputt and chip now without hav-ing any leg pain and so forth,”Nicklaus said. “We didn’t reallytalk a whole lot about it. He does-n’t have a timetable for returningor anything else.
“I think he was just ... he’spretty private about what his sit-uation is, and I don’t blame him,”Nicklaus added. “Because everytime he opens his mouth, there’snothing but articles written aboutspeculation about Tiger. And Idon’t want to break his ... he likesit when we talk. We talk aboutdifferent things. I just don’t thinkit’s my place to expound onTiger’s health and so forth.”
What does it all mean?No one can say for sure, except
the golfing public seems to be ina bigger rush for Woods to returnthan he is.
The best guess is that if Woodshas learned anything, he willreturn later rather than sooner.He came back too early from leginjuries in 2011, withdrew after42 on the front nine at ThePlayers Championship and satout three months. He came backtoo soon from back surgery thatknocked him out of the Mastersand U.S. Open in 2014. Heplayed 11 tournaments over thenext year and was as irrelevantas he has ever been on the golfcourse.
That’s what makes all thespeculation about Woods sofascinating. He seems to be rel-evant as long as he’s not play-
ing. In place of his recent per-formance are memories of aplayer the likes of which hasnot been seen by any of the fourplayers who have been No. 1since Woods last won a tourna-ment.
Nicklaus used to always sayhe thought Woods would breakhis record of 18 professionalmajors until one day Nicklauswas so tired of the same ques-tion that he asked the audiencewhat kind of headlines he wouldmake if he ever said differently.
It’s not about records. It’sabout playing.
Nicklaus said he told Woods,“Nobody wants their records tobe broken, but I don’t want younot to have the ability to havethat opportunity.”
For now, the most trustedreports from those who were atthe Nicklaus dinner. PhilMickelson said he was fun,social, laughing. Ryder Cupcaptain Davis Love III usedwords like “fit” and “happy” todescribe Woods.
Jimmy Walker brought thelevity.
“I talked to him just a sec-ond,” Walker said. “I said, ‘Wow,you’re standing up and you’renot dead.’ He said, ‘I know.That’s how everybody thinks Iam now — dead.’”
Imagine what it will be like atthe tournament where Woodsreturns to golf, whenever thatmight be. And then imagine howlong before the fans realize he isa 40-year-old with four surger-ies on his knee and three sur-geries on his back.
Everyone wants to see Woodsplay again, as long as he playslike the Woods they once knew.
Meanwhile, Scott became rel-evant again. He is a PGA Tourwinner again, even with a shortputter, and moved back into thetop 10 at No. 9 in the world.
Woods fell one spot to No. 446.

Lady Cavaliers 30Both teams made just three
shots from the field in the open-ing eight minutes, but one ofCookeville’s was a 3-pointer,plus they drained a pair of freethrows for a 9-6 edge.
The second period started outlike more of the same with thefirst five shots failing to find thenets before Bradley finally gotsomething going with a baselinedrive by junior Emma KateBrown at the 4:55 mark, fol-lowed by a long-range bombfrom district Player of the YearRhyne Howard 35 seconds laterto give the Black-and-Gold theirfirst lead.
While keeping the hostsscoreless on 10 field goalattempts, the Bearettes added afree throw from junior HalleHughes and another Howardshot from “downtown” to take a15-9 lead into the intermission.
“Neither team shot well in thefirst half (Cookeville 3-for-18,Bradley 6-for-22), but I washappy with a six-point lead,”related Coach Reuter.“Cookeville was a hard team toprepare for because they run somany sets. In watching film onthem I saw them run 12 differ-ent plays.”
“They (Cookeville) were domi-nating us in the paint and KaileyMcRee came in and even thoughshe picked up three fouls in lessthan two minutes, she changedthe tone of the game for usinside,” the coach assessed.
The Bearettes picked up their
offensive production after thebreak, scoring nine of the first11 second-half points to pushthe lead to 13.
Bradley sank 4-of-5 shots infront of the arc and went 1-for-3beyond in the third frame, whileleading by a 28-18 margin head-ing into the final period.
The Bearette offense was evenbetter in the closing eight min-utes, sinking all four two-point-ers, going 1-of-2 from 3-pointland, plus sinking 9-of-11 freethrows for the 18-point win.
“Julia Gaither hit a pair of big3-pointers there in the secondhalf and Halle (Hughes) got ontrack,” commented Reuter.“They only had one girl (SydneyBean) who was hitting from out-side, so we were able to play azone against them, which issomething I don’t think they’veseen much of this year,”
While Bean pumped in fivelong-range bombs on her way to17 points, no other LadyCavalier netted more than eightmarkers.
Bradley on the other handhad a trio of scorers in doublefigures as Howard matched thegame-high 17, hitting 7-of-10shots from the field, whileHughes finished with 13 andGaither added 10.
The 6-foot-1 Howard cleanedthe glass for a half dozenrebounds, while Gaither andKatie Brown pulled down fivecaroms apiece. Hughes snaggedfour ricochets.
“Playing a 2-3 zone we wereable to keep Rhyne around thegoal and even though she’s notvery big around, she’s tall andhas a wide wingspan that helpsher get rebounds before otherplayers can.
Howard also dished out fourassists, copped a trio of stealsand blocked three Cookevilleshots. Hughes helped out with apair of helps and two thefts.

Baseball toughens up on chewas sky darkens for big dippers
Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholzspit some chew into a bottle at hislocker, then dipped into the latestnotice from baseball.
Big leaguers are now getting awritten reminder that smokelesstobacco is banned at stadiums inBoston, San Francisco and LosAngeles.
One-page letters are being putin clubhouse stalls throughoutspring training, where there is noprohibition. The notes come joint-ly from Major League Baseballand the players’ union.
So, will Buchholz quit?“That’ll probably happen,” he
said. “If you get reprimanded forsomething, there comes a timewhere you’re tired of paying finesfor something you don’t have todo or doesn’t make you any bet-ter.”
“You’ve got to obey the rules orthere’s consequences to it. We’llprobably learn more about thatwhen we get up North,” he said atcamp in Fort Myers, Florida.
Washington Nationals managerDusty Baker was a big dipper fora long time. He’s cut back overthe years, but still might pop in apinch when games get tight.
“It’s a bad influence for thekids. Big time. I’ll say that. Butalso they’re adults, too, at thesame time,” Baker said.
“We’ll see,” he said. “My daugh-
ter used to put water in my canand put it back in my truck. Ormy son, he has lip check — ‘Get itout, Dad!’”
Local laws will prohibit the useof all tobacco products at FenwayPark, Dodger Stadium and AT&TPark this year, meaning players,team personnel, umpires andfans. The letter advises the sameban will take effect at everyCalifornia ballpark in December.
“Major league players are citi-zens,” Commissioner RobManfred said last week inArizona. “Municipalities passlaws. We expect that our playerswill comply with those laws.”
Said new Dodgers managerDave Roberts: “I support it.”
“I think that the intentions arethere, and there’s obviously goingto be some resistance with play-ers,” he said.
“Like it or not, players are rolemodels, and we have a platformas coaches and players. So ifthat’s the law, then we definitelysupport it,” he said.
Similar legislation has beenproposed in New York City, andboth the Mets and Yankees saythey back such a ban at theirparks. In Toronto, a city legislatorsaid Monday that he plans topursue a ban that would coverthe Blue Jays’ stadium.
The letter being distributed to
players on 40-man rosters andteams this spring says: “Pleasenote that these are city ordi-nances and not rules establishedby Major League Baseball.However, the commissioner’soffice will be monitoring playersand club personnel for compli-ance with the regulations.”
Smokeless tobacco isn’t per-mitted throughout the minorleagues. There is no ban on dip-ping in the majors, and the issueis certain to be discussed inupcoming labor talks betweenMLB and the union on the con-tract that expires Dec. 1.
Going back more than a centu-ry, even before Bull Durhamtobacco signs were plastered allover outfield walls, baseball wasfilled with pictures of players witha chaw in their cheek.
Buchholz did take a break, fora while.
“I stopped in the offseason andbaseball, it goes along with theterritory for me,” he said. “It’s nota good habit.”
Over the years, in collectivebargaining, MLB and the unionhave tried to lower that profile.
Players, managers and coachesnow can’t stick tobacco tins, cansor pouches in their pockets whenthey’re on the field or in plainsight of fans. No wads stuck inthe mouth during TV interviews,
either.In their letter, MLB and the
union said it would provide “nico-tine replacement therapy prod-ucts to those players who wish touse them as substitutes. A ship-ment of various products includ-ing lozenges, gum, and patcheswill be sent to each club free ofcharge in spring training, andthroughout the 2016 season.”
The letter included a reminderthat Dr. Michael Steinberg, direc-tor of the Rutgers Universitytobacco dependence program,had previously been hired as aconsultant to help players developa treatment plan, if they wanted.
Toronto Blue Jays managerJohn Gibbons applauded theeffort to cut down on chaw. Hequit a couple years ago after Hallof Famer Tony Gwynn — acareer-long dipper — died at 54 ofsalivary gland cancer.
“I was a tobacco user for a lot ofyears. I’m not proud of that. Ifinally was able to quit. It’s adirty, filthy habit,” he said.
“I wouldn’t want my kids doingit. You hope in some way, theycan eliminate it and wipe it out.I’m sure there will be some fightsover that, especially in this elec-tion year. I’m sure that’ll bebrought up. But, hey, if you canget rid of it, I’m all for that,” hesaid.

nashviLLe Predators center Filip Forsberg (9) cele-brates after scoring his second goal of the period against the St.Louis Blues in the second period Saturday, in Nashville.
Forsberg’s pair of hat tricksnot seen in NHL since 1986
NASHVILLE (AP) — ThePredators hope left-winger FilipForsberg plays down the stretchthe way he has been the pastfew games.
That way the fun, and thewins, will continue in Nashville.
Forsberg was named the firststar of the week Monday by theNHL after he became the firstplayer since 1986-87 with twonatural hat tricks in three orfewer games. Forsberg had sixgoals and an assist last week asthe Predators won four straightgames.
“It’s always good to scoregoals,” Forsberg said after prac-tice. “I mean ahat trick iso b v i o u s l ypretty special.To get two in ashort periodof time isp r o b a b l ysomething Inever thoughtwas going tohappen. It’sbeen a lot offun these pastfew days. I’vegot to keep itgoing.”
F o r s b e r gbecame thefirst player inN a s h v i l l efranchise history with two hattricks in a single seasonSaturday in a 5-0 win againstSt. Louis, and he set a very highstandard after his first came onFeb. 23 in a 3-2 win at Toronto.The feat hadn’t been done in theNHL since November 1986.
That’s when Petri Skriko didit in back-to-back games forVancouver against Calgary onNov. 18 and Nov. 21 against theRangers.
Forsberg’s hat tricks cappedan amazing February for the 21-year-old from Ostervala,Sweden. He set a franchiserecord with 12 goals in 11games in February, the mostgoals scored in a single month.That tied Alex Ovechkin ofWashington and Boston’s BradMarchand for most goals in theleague during February.
He already has tied his previ-ous career-best of 26 goals setlast season, and he is sevengoals from the franchise record
of 33 with 19 games left.“Forsberg seems to score on
every shot this month,” team-mate Mike Fisher said.
It’s a big difference from howForsberg started the season. Hescored only three goals throughthe first 23 games. Lately, he’sbeen working on the second linewith veteran center Mike Ribeiroand Craig Smith. As a result,Forsberg now leads Nashville inboth goals and points (46)through 63 games.
Predators coach PeterLaviolette said that line is play-ing really well with a lot of speedand confidence, which is creat-
ing chancesin the offen-sive zone forForsberg tos h o o t .L a v i o l e t t ealso notedRibeiro is atremendousp laymakerwhose passon the powerp l a yS a t u r d a yagainst St.Louis set upForsbe rg ’ sthird goal.
“ T h a t ’ swhen Filip canreally shine,”
Laviolette said. When he getsthe puck in the situation like hedid, to bury that one on thepower play, he has the skill levelto do it.”
Combined with goalie PekkaRinne playing like the three-timeVezina Trophy finalist he is, thePredators go into Tuesdaynight’s game hosting Dallas on anine-game point streak. Theyhave won four straight and cur-rently hold the first wild-cardspot in the Western Conferencewith a game in hand and a five-point lead over Colorado.
“He’s looked unbelievable andmade some great plays,” Fishersaid of Forsberg. “I would sayjust overall playing smarter,taking advantage of his chancesand you know pretty impressiveweek he had, month really.Hopefully, he can keep thatgoing and stay hot and contin-ue.
“It’s really fun to watch as ateammate.”
“It’s always good toscore goals. I mean a hattrick is obviously pretty
special. To get two in ashort period of time isprobably something I
never thought was goingto happen. It’s been a lot
of fun these past few days.I’ve got to keep it going.”

“Joe is an incredibly hardworker and never cuts corners,”said Morris. “His focus is alwayson winning and doing things theright way and we couldn’t beprouder that he is our first-everOutstanding Wrestler.”
Munoz says he has yet tomake a final decision on wherehe will attend college after grad-uation, but he aims to continuewrestling and working hard.
“Walker Valley is a great schooland I am excited that wheneveranyone looks back to see whowas the first OutstandingWrestler they will see my name,”he said. “There will be others
after me but I’m glad I couldstart the tradition.”
The Allan Jones Foundationhas a long tradition of support-ing athletes from all three localhigh schools. Toby Pendergrass,director of the foundation, saidMunoz exemplifies all of thecharacteristics that make afuture leader.
“Joe is what we look for in anathlete,” said Pendergrass. “Hehas an incredible work ethic anda strong sense of values. Anyonewho meets him is impressed andthat he has a great future aheadof him. There is no limit to whathe can accomplish.”

Asked a few weeks later justwhat had soured between thetwo, Harvick smugly offeredonly, “Oh, there’s not enoughtime to get into that.”
It seemed puzzling last fall,but in light of the move to Ford,now may be an indicator to afractured relationship betweentwo of the top Chevrolet teamsin NASCAR.
In announcing next year’smove to Ford, Stewart explainedthat the manufacturer changegives SHR a chance to step outof the Hendrick shadows andbecome more self-sufficient. Theteam will get its engines nextyear from Doug Yates instead ofHendrick, and will slowly thisseason begin to build its ownchassis and wean itself off ofHendrick support.
But Stewart also indicated,with little elaboration, thatsomething had shifted in a part-nership that began when Haasput his first Cup car on the
track in 2002.“I feel like our relationship
with Hendrick has been chang-ing a little bit over the last year,”Stewart said during last week’sFord announcement. “The tech-nical side of it has changedquite a bit going into this sea-son, so we’ve kind of been work-ing this direction.”
Translation: Our people arejust as smart as Hendrick’s andwe don’t necessarily need orwant to be sharing all oursecrets with them anymore.
But this eventual divorce hasthe potential to be bumpy overthe next 35 races.
At some point, the informa-tion flow between the two teamswill trickle down to next tonothing, just as Chevy mayneed to stop being so open withSHR as the season progresses.Those shifts could come whenSHR is battling Hendrick driversin the 10-race playoffs for thetitle.

Each week I say Bradley County isTennessee at its best.
Last week we said goodbye to one ofthe reasons — Mr. Danny Lawson con-cluded his professional service withBradley County as the director ofEmergency Medical Services. His serv-ice spanned 37 years that includedtime at most every post within thisaward-winning organization and thepast decade and a half as its director.
There have been many stories abouthis heroic service always setting thebenchmark high, not only for himselfbut all of those who served with him,as well as those who were served intheir time of medical need.
This “always on” mindset had to
have taken its toll, but no one wouldhave ever known it, as Mr. Lawson wasalways even-tempered when it cametime to work.
He may have been contemplatingnavigating drive time, immediatelyneeded medical intervention techniquesand their approach to safe delivery, as
well as budgetary issues, along with ahost of personal and family concerns,but it never showed to anyone else.
This professionalism is sadly a miss-ing element in some places of thisnation, but not here, and not when itcame to conversations with Lawson.
Now, there were times that we haddisagreements professionally and eventimes of discussion that were notpleasant (at the time). Lawson, like me,always fought for what he believed inhis heart was best for everyone and ifthere were disagreements, we dis-agreed without becoming disagreeable.
And for this I am also thankful .Working together he, I and many oth-ers have literally encouraged the pro-
fessionals at Bradley CountyEmergency Medical Services to achievethe goal of becoming the very bestdepartment across the entire state ofTennessee.
This award-winning service deliversan amazing service to our residents,citizens and visitors to this region withclass, compassion and care that areunequaled anywhere, and performsthis 24 hours for each and every day.
Thank you, Danny Lawson, for yourservice. Thank you for your leadership.And thank you for faithfully answeringthe call (Earthly and Heavenly) to serveothers so heroically.
I know that you will find it difficultto hear a distant ambulance siren and
not be reaching for your radio or yourmedical bag and trauma kit to “answerthe call.” But rest assured, your placein Bradley County history is as safeand secure as the literally millions ofpeople your department has cared forover the past 37 years.
May you sleep in, re-learn your lostability to relax and know that you havebeen, are and will always be appreciat-ed by me and the people of BradleyCounty and our Southeast Tennesseeregion for your service to us all.
Danny Lawson, and the countlessprofessionals who work as first respon-ders of every type and calling, are yetmore reasons Bradley County truly isTennessee at its best!

TODAY IN HISTORY
Bradley County voters whoresisted the urge to casttheir ballots in early vot-
ing may today have the lastlaugh because they will beselecting from among a field ofcandidates who have not sus-pended their campaigns.
In the presidential preferenceprimary, that’s one of the keyreasons why many wait to visittheir respective polling placesuntil Election Day. From thestart of early voting to its closejust a few days before SuperTuesday, any number of hope-fuls can close the door on theirdreams.
We’ve seen it in this race andwe’ll likely continue to see it foras long as America elects itspresident.
In Bradley County, only 12percent of our registered voterscast their ballots in early voting.
Why?We’re told it’s not because of
apathy. Traditionally, the presi-dential primaries and generalelections are among thenation’s biggest draws in voterturnout.
The reason is because voterswant to make their marks count.They want to know their ballotswill influence the outcome. Andto do this means waiting untilthe final day, or as close to thefinal day as possible.
It’s this simple.Heading into Super Tuesday,
only five candidates on theGOP ballot remain viable candi-dates: Donald Trump, MarcoRubio, Ted Cruz, John Kasichand Ben Carson, and somepundits project Carson will pullthe plug on his campaign short-ly after today’s results havebeen announced.
Kasich is thought to be thenext casualty, depending onresults out of his home state ofOhio, and Michigan — neitherof which is a part of SuperTuesday.
On the Democratic ledger,the bitter rivalry between formerSecretary of State HillaryClinton and Vermont Sen.Bernie Sanders could last wellbeyond Super Tuesday unlessSanders takes a pummelingtoday in the Deep South assome are forecasting.
Either way, both remain races— at least for today — that con-tinue to capture the attention ofan American populace whosevoters appear to be in agree-ment: They want change andthey want it now.
Whichever candidate canconceivably make it happen …that’s where the votes will go; atleast, based on current percep-tions.
If this is their mindset, neitherRepublican nor Democratic vot-ers can be faulted for theirgrowing impatience.
Consider:1. For eight years Americans
have grown frustrated over thelack of bipartisan stewardship inWashington, D.C. Is it the faultof President Barack Obama oris the Republican-dominatedCongress to blame? It dependsupon who’s doing the talkingand who spoke last. We sus-pect both sides can stake claim
to some of the futility becausetoday’s political landscape isdecorated more by declarationsof “No!” than it is conciliatorytones of, “Let’s talk.”
2. America’s national debt isno longer at crisis level. It is acontagion threatening to eradi-cate a nation and well-being ofher people. At last count, thedebt had sailed north of $19 tril-lion. Put to numbers, that’s$19,000,000,000,000. If youstrung together that many dollarbills, how many times would thegreen rope wrap around PlanetEarth? We don’t know either,but we shudder to think.
3. Existing retirees fear SocialSecurity and Medicare — bothof which are integral pieces oftheir fixed-income survival —will abandon them, and that thiswill happen sooner rather thanlater. Their frustration risesbecause they have no reason tobelieve anyone in Washingtonhas the answer, or is willing towork together, to find theanswer.
4. As for incoming retirees,take No. 3 and multiply thosefears by infinity. That’s theseverity of Blue CollarAmerica’s financial disillusion-ment.
5. America seems to be atwar … everywhere. Whoamong us can say, “RomanEmpire?” Are there lessons tobe learned? We think so. Butwhen will Washington —Republicans or Democrats andall others — begin to listen? Wemean really, seriously listen?
Want more?No need. We feel we’ve
made our point. We alsobelieve most will agree.
And to any who would darepoint a finger and claim, “It’s thefault of those stingyRepublicans …” or “It’s allbecause of those free-spendingDemocrats ...,” we would reply,“Stow it! Those words today areas lame as the arguments usedto give them voice.”
It’s about this and it’s aboutnothing more. Washington,D.C., has become an eyesoreto the American public — notthe city, mind you, and not thepeople who live there, but thefederally elected lawmakerswhose refusal to negotiate …or, to just talk … has robbed thevoters of their reason to believe.
The Cleveland and BradleyCounty community is just onesmall piece of the electorate piecalled the American Voter. Butit’s an important piece — yet, nomore important — than anyother city or county or stateacross this vast homeland.
But it’s our home. And to bor-row from that familiar adage,“Home is where the heart is.”
Ours is in Bradley County butour roots share a bond with therest of the nation.
It is Super Tuesday.We urge those who have not
yet voted to stake a claim in thefuture of America and cast aballot.
Polls close at 8 p.m.Sure, our nation’s frustrations
are at their highest. And not vot-ing your conscience will make iteven worse.

Dear Annie: I have eightgrandchildren and I love them all.I make sure to spend equalamounts of time and care witheach one of them.
The problem is my son’s 3-year-old child. My son and hiswife live with his mother-in-law inanother state. I have been unableto see this grandson, because thewife and her mother are so afraidof colds that they will leave thegrocery if someone so much assneezes.
When I first flew down to meetthe new baby, my son called mein the rental car to say that I wasnot allowed to come because Ihad a cold three weeks earlier. Iwas able to negotiate meetingthem at a nearby restaurant, butI was not allowed to hold thebaby. The mother-in-law cameand took the child home beforethe meal was served.
Yet, my daughter-in-law refus-es to vaccinate the boy againstmore serious diseases. She alsolets him climb out of his car seatbecause he fusses in it, whichexposes him to the risk of deathfrom a minor car accident.
When I send Christmas pres-ents, she opens them early andhands them to the child, neversaying they are from me. I havesent him clothes, but have neverseen a picture of him in anythingbut a T-shirt and diaper. At theage of 3, he is still drinking for-mula from a bottle and eatingvery little real food.
I am worried about the mentaland physical health of this child,not to mention my own sadnessthat we can’t have a relationship.Is there anything I can do? —Perplexed Grandmother
Dear Perplexed: Is your sonnot involved in these decisions? Itdoesn’t bother him that his sonisn’t belted into a car seat? Orthat he is still getting most of hisnutrition from infant formula?And we won’t get into the anti-vaxx movement, which, althoughwell-intentioned, we disagreewith.
Please gently suggest to yourson that he speak about thesethings with the child’s pediatri-cian, to be certain he is caring forhis son in the best possible way.If he disagrees with his wife’schild-rearing methods, he shouldnot be a coward about it. Even so,there are limits to what you cando about your relationship withyour grandson other than contin-ue to keep in touch, visit whenev-er possible and maintain the mostcompassionate communicationyou can with the boy’s mother.

Kenya wildlife rangers probesighting of 2 lions out of park
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Kenyawildlife authorities Mondaydeployed a tracking team toinvestigate reports that two lionswere spotted outside NairobiNational Park near a residentialarea.
A truck driver who told amotorcycle rider that he hadspotted the lions along NgongRoad in the capital could not befound, hampering efforts todetermine the exact location ofthe lions, Kenya Wildlife Servicespokesman Paul Gathitu said.That information was relayed topolice officers who reported it tothe wildlife service.
Gathitu said it is possible thelions were among a group of sixthat wandered out of the Nairobipark earlier this month. He saidthe lions could be staying in theNgong forest adjacent to thepark.
Nairobi National Park hostsdiverse wildlife, just six milesfrom downtown Nairobi. The
Nairobi park, covering 45-square-miles (117-square-kilo-meters), is home to endangeredblack rhinos, lions, leopards,cheetahs, hyenas, buffaloes,giraffes and diverse birdlife. Theanimals roam just six miles (10kilometers) from downtownNairobi, which is north of thepark. It's unclear how the lionsgot out of the park, most ofwhich is surrounded in that areaby an electric fence.
Occasionally lions will clashwith people on the southernside, which is not fenced. In2012, six lions were killed after apride of lions attacked and killedeight goats of Masaai herdsmen.
Only about 2,000 lions are leftin Kenya after years of huntingand poaching. The governmenthas announced plans to build arailway that will traverse part ofthe Nairobi park.Conservationists have opposedthe railway line, saying it willfurther damage wildlife habitat.
Ted Cruz.“We’re hoping people will wake
up (before it’s too late),” saidCandy Carson on Monday.
She spent much of Monday’sdiscussion on her husband’s rea-sons for seeking the RepublicanParty’s nomination, and the facthe will not pull out of the cam-paign at this late date. She saidhe prayed and told God, “If youopen the door, I’ll walk through.”
She also blames the newsmedia for much of the decline inher husband’s fortunes.
Candy Carson said a big hand-icap for the Carson campaign isthat voters like and respect him,but the media tells them he can’twin. Therefore, they won’t vote forhim.
The neurosurgeon’s wife saysthe media wants someone inoffice it can control, and her hus-band won’t be controlled.
She added it is “stupid” fornews media to focus on threatsand insults, instead of the issuesof the campaign. She said herhusband is focused on improvingthe nation, and has a plan tolower the national debt.
Carson added that her hus-band also has plans for healthcare, education and foreign poli-cy.
Ben Carson, she says, didn’tplan to campaign for the nation’stop job until more than half a
million signatures showed up ona petition. She said that is when“He had a talk with God.”
After Carson’s election popu-larity began to decline in the fall,he made a number of staffchanges. His wife said severalvolunteers were not in tune withher husband’s faith-based effort,and left the team. She said theyrestructured the campaign, andhave moved forward.
She was asked if her husbandwould join one of the other candi-dates to put forward a strongerteam. Candy Carson said shedoes not think he would workunder someone else, unless theyshared his religious views.
“He believes it is his job to fol-low God’s guidance and to speakfor the people,” she said.
Candy Carson said she was notsupportive of her husband’s cam-paign, at first, but is now fully onboard. “I gave him up for 40 yearsto medicine, and I didn’t want togive him up again to the nation,”she said.
Candy Carson said that the
thing that changed her mind,“was the grandbabies.”
She said our children, andgrandchildren, are facing a dis-mal future with the national debtwhere it is. She said that if wepaid $10 million a day on thatdebt, it will take 5,000 years topay it off.
Lee University’s Dr. JeromeHammond, vice president forUniversity Relations, presidedover Carson’s visit, asking her anumber of questions of interest tothe audience. He later opened upthe event for questions andanswers.
Several visitors said they hadvoted early, and for her husband.Others pledged support for BenCarson’s faith-based campaign.
One young Saudi Arabian manasked her when the Carsonsmight visit the Mideast and hiscountry. She told him they hadvisited Jordan this pastNovember, and went to Israel ear-lier.
She said it is hard to say wherethey might visit, if her husband is
elected to the White House.She did not provide any predic-
tions on today’s Super Tuesdayvote, or her thoughts on the over-all campaign. But, she did sayher husband will never give up.
“God allows things to happen acertain way, and he’s still got hishand on this campaign,” she saidwith determination.
Carson emphasized her hus-band is running for president tohelp people. “He’s done whatneeds to be done, and he says it’sup to God.”
She told a story of her husband,and how he was the first surgeonto operate on a child in its moth-er’s womb. She said that 20 yearslater, she met a young, beautifulwoman who had been the unbornchild he had operated upon.
Mrs. Carson added that herhusband told God, “You be thesurgeon, I’ll be your hands.”
She said her husband, as aneurosurgeon, raised aware-ness. She said that is what he isattempting to do in this presi-dential campaign. “He’s doingwhat needs to be done,” shesaid.
Carson, 62, was born Lacena“Candy” Rustin in Detroit andgrew up in the inner city with fivesiblings. She was the daughter ofa factory worker and a teacher,saying she grew up poor.
She excelled academically,studied classical violin, andearned a scholarship to YaleUniversity. That was where shemet her husband. She had threemajors: music, psychology andpre-medicine.
They have adult sons: Murray,Benjamin Jr., and Rhoeyce, andthe Carsons are devout Seventh-day Adventists.
In 1994, they co-founded theCarson Scholars Fund, a non-profit that initially awarded onescholarship. It now awards schol-arships in 50 states and theDistrict of Columbia, with recipi-ents being young people who dis-play high academic achievementand stellar character.
She has co-written five bookswith her husband, and now oneof her own. It is about her lifewith her famed spouse.
She says her husband wouldmake a good president.
“Ben is a man of deep faith anda quiet, humble strength. He canprovide a new kind of leadershipthat I believe our country is readyfor,” she has said.
Daniel Marlow.“There have been eight acci-
dents on Frontage Road from thecity limits to the Charlestonintersection,” Crye said. “Six ofthose accidents have involvedteenagers. Four have been at theentrance of WindcrestSubdivision. Three of those fourwere teenagers aged 16, 17 and17.”
He said from the city limits ofFrontage Road to the Lauderdaleintersection, there have been 77traffic stops within the county.
“There were 70 warnings, fourcitations and one arrest,” Cryesaid.
He added the four accidents atthe subdivision entranceinvolved two failures to stay inthe proper lane, one for speeding
and one for reckless driving.“What they are now doing is
installing what is called speedspies,” Crye said. “This is not thething that warns you you’respeeding. This is something theyput on poles or trees at differentlocations. All they do is record
the speed of passing vehicles.There will be two of theminstalled — one on the straight-away and one on the curves.”
He said Marlow, who hasinvestigated most of the involvedaccidents, said the problem ismore at the subdivisionentrance.
“He said you really didn’t reallyhave to be speeding if you were akid not accustomed to driving,”Crye said. “You make the firstcurve, but on the second, if thereis oncoming traffic, you shift overon the shoulder and lose it.”
“We have a bad situation upthere,” he added. “It’s just a mat-ter of time before one of thosekids gets killed or permanentlyparalyzed. We need some helpout there.”
after they get off work, and thatlast wave who say, ‘Oh yeah, thepolls stay open until 8 o’clock.’This morning we opened the pollsto that first group of voters, andofficials said that they were quitebusy.”
Polls today opened at 8 a.m.and will remain open until 8 p.m.at 17 precincts across the coun-ty. The precincts are the same asin years past, with the exceptionof the change from the old BlytheAvenue Elementary School to theMuseum Center at Five Points,which is located on Inman Street.
With the exception of theMuseum Center and the SeniorCenter on Urbane Road, all otherprecincts are situated at areaschools. Having the polls atschools has proven to work wellfor elections.
The only local race on today’sballot is the primary for Assessorof Property, and only incumbentStanley Thompson is on the bal-lot. He will also be unopposed onthe August Bradley CountyGeneral Election ballot.
The races that are bringing invoters, according to election offi-cials, are the Republican andDemocratic primaries for presi-dent. Tennessee is one of 12states to have voting taking placetoday, and one of seven in theSouth.
Along with Tennessee, theother states in the South holdingelections today are Alabama,Arkansas, Georgia, Oklahoma,Texas and Virginia.
The most watched race inBradley County, based on earlyvoting results, will be theRepublican primary. Front run-ner Donald Trump is being chal-lenged by candidates Ted Cruzand Marco Rubio, among others,
for the delegates in that race.Democratic contenders who
are being watched are HillaryClinton and Bernie Sanders.
Bradley County is a tradition-ally Republican area as far asvoting goes, and that was seen inthe early voting results, with7,034 of the active voters castingballots, and Republicans votingat a 5-to-1 margin.
Tonight’s results should be innot only after voting ends, offi-cials said, and the state totalswill be announced not long aftervoting is complete.

CHATTANOOGA (AP) — Thenumber of people arrested fordriving under the influence inChattanooga has risen despite adecrease in the number of DUIarrests statewide, according to theTennessee Bureau ofInvestigation.
A recently released annualreport from the agency showedthat 27,917 people were arrestedin the state in 2015 for drivingunder the influence. That’s about1,800 fewer arrests than 2014,according to a Chattanooga news-paper.
The number of statewide trafficcrashes involving alcohol alsodropped from 6,661 in 2014 to6,496 in 2015.
However, in Chattanooga, policeLt. David Gibb said the number ofDUI arrests rose from 739 in 2014to 791 in 2015.
“That’s a relatively small num-

Osama bin Laden wanted much of his fortune used ‘on jihad’
WASHINGTON (AP) — In hishandwritten will, al-Qaida leaderOsama bin Laden claimed he hadabout $29 million in personalwealth — the bulk of which hewanted to be used “on jihad, forthe sake of Allah.”
The will was released Tuesdayin a batch of more than 100 doc-uments seized in a May 2011 raidthat killed bin Laden at his com-pound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.The al-Qaida leader planned todivide his fortune among his rela-tives, but wanted most of it spentto conduct the work of the Islamicextremist terror network behindthe Sept. 11 attacks.
The threat of sudden death wason his mind years before the fatalraid in Pakistan.
“If I am to be killed,” he wrotein a 2008 letter to his father,“pray for me a lot and give contin-uous charities in my name, as Iwill be in great need for supportto reach the permanent home.”
The letters were included in abatch of documents released bythe Office of the Director ofNational Intelligence. Theyaddress a range of topics, includ-ing fractures between al-Qaidaand al-Qaida in Iraq, which even-tually splintered off into what isnow known as the Islamic State;and bin Laden’s concerns abouthis organization’s public imageand his desire to depict it as aunited network.
In another letter, addressed to“The Islamic Community inGeneral,” bin Laden offered anupbeat assessment of progress inhis holy war since 9/11 and ofU.S. failings in Afghanistan. Theletter is undated but appears tohave been written in 2010.
“Here we are in the tenth yearof the war, and America and itsallies are still chasing a mirage,lost at sea without a beach,” hewrote.
“They thought that the warwould be easy and that theywould accomplish their objectivesin a few days or a few weeks, andthey did not prepare for it finan-cially, and there is no popularsupport that would enable it tocarry on a war for a decade ormore. The sons of Islam haveopposed them and stood betweenthem and their plans and objec-tives.”
Bin Laden sought to portraythe U.S. as hopelessly mired in anunwinnable war in Afghanistan.In an undated letter that appearsto have been written in the 2009-2010 period, he compared theAmerican combat position to thatof the Soviet Union in the finalyears of its occupation ofAfghanistan in the 1980s.
“America appears to be hanging
on by a thin thread. Due to thefinancial difficulties,” he wrote.
“We need to be patient a bitlonger. With patience, there is vic-tory!”
Beginning last summer, theCIA spearheaded an interagencyreview of the classified docu-ments under the auspices of theWhite House’s National SecurityCouncil staff. Representativesfrom seven agencies combedthrough the documents.
“This was no easy feat as mem-bers of the task force dedicatedthemselves over a long period oftime working in an intelligencecommunity facility to review anddeclassify as many documents aspossible,” said Brian Hale, aspokesman for the national intel-ligence director.”
The review is ongoing, with thenext release expected later thisyear.
Shortly before his death, binLaden hailed the overthrow anddeath of Libya’s strongman leaderMoammar Gadhafi.
In a Feb. 25, 2011 letteraddressed “to our people inLibya,” bin Laden said al-Qaidahad triumphed over Gadhafi.
“Praise God, who made al-Qa’ida a great vexation upon him,squatting on his chest, enragingand embittering him, and whomade al-Qa’ida a torment andexemplary punishment uponhim, this truly vile hallucinatingindividual who troubles us infront of the world!” he wrote.
House defeats bill to allow skunks as pets
NASHVILLE (AP) — A proposalto allow skunks to be kept as petsin Tennessee has fallen short inthe state House amid concernsabout spreading rabies.
The bill sponsored byRepublican Rep. Jeremy Faison ofCosby received 44 votes onMonday. Bills need a constitu-tional majority of 50 votes to passthe chamber.

Danielle Seals on a music career.Her opening presentation washumorous and filled with talent.It was posted on the United WayFacebook Page following the cele-bration for the entire communityto enjoy. It is titled “Hello Fromthe United Way.”
“This is a record-breakingamount, the most we’ve everraised,” said Tolbert in hisannouncement of donations fromthe community.
Tolbert said he read recentlythat research has shown thatpeople who give back to the com-munity actually live longer. “Wemust be the healthiest communi-ty on earth,” he said.
Several United Way supporterswere recognized with the organi-zation’s respective awards.
Julie Wright and Matt Carlsonpresented the Tucker Award toRobert Green. Green is a formerGreen Beret and, like the lateJim Tucker, is focused on youthministry and the Fellowship ofChristian Athletes.
Carlson praised Green’s workwith youth in the communitywhen presenting the award to aperson from the nonprofit sector.“He is a father, husband and aChristian,” said Carlson.
“This is a great honor and trib-ute,” said Green in accepting theaward. His wife, Teresa, anddaughters, Sierra and Mariah,joined him in his time of honor.
Cameron Fisher, longtimecommunications coordinator forChurch of God InternationalOffices and chairman of theCleveland/Bradley CountyGreenway board of directors,presented the Johnson Service
Award to Dr. Rubi Porter, formereducator and official at ClevelandState Community College.
“She is sweet, polished andgenteel,” Fisher said of Porter.“She has worked tirelessly toserve people.
“I’ve lived many places, butnever have I met such graciouspeople as I have here inCleveland,” said Porter. “It’s sucha lovely community and I appre-ciate how kind you’ve been tome.”
Lorton said the new award wasestablished to honor local womenwho are having a positive impactwith United Way and in the com-munity.
He praised the award’s name-sake, who attended Mondaynight’s banquet and who Lortonserved with as United Way co-chairs several years ago. He saidhe trailed her in collectionsthrough that campaign, butedged her on the final day for theBig Chief Award. “She told me Iwas nothing but a sand-bagger,”Lorton joked.
Staff member Candice Natolahad more to add on Thorogood.“She’s done it all, she’s in a classof her own, and she was aninciteful leader,” Natola said.
The recipient of this first-everCharlotte Thorogood LeadershipAward — Carolyn Jackson — isone of United Way’s longtime vol-
unteers, and supports manylocal organizations and causes.
In accepting the honor,Jackson said she wanted tothank her husband.
“He works six days a week,because he cares about hisemployees,” she said. “I’m proudto be his wife.”
In a final episode of Mondaynight’s United Way celebration,outgoing Chair Tanya Mazzoliniswapped compliments withincoming Chairman MatthewJenne.
In her farewell letter to thisyear’s record-breaking cam-paign, Mazzolini said, “What Ilove about United Way is that weare in the business of transform-ing tragedy into triumph, andpredicaments into achieve-ments.”
She added, “For many in thiscommunity, life is a struggle, andwhen you support this work, youhelp thousands of people over-come obstacles to realize theirfull potential. That is what givesthis work meaning to me, and Ihope it does the same for you.”
Mazzolini, vice president ofaccounting for Life Care Centersof America, is the first to serveUnited Way in this position inconsecutive years.
Mazzolini, a self-professed“Trekkie” (an avid fan of “StarTrek”) said Jenne and the United
Way board must continue tomake bold decisions, and “Boldlygo where no one has gonebefore.”
Jenne presented Mazzoliniwith a “Star Trek” clock as aparting gift, and said they haveenrolled her in Star TrekAcademy (at a cost of $20). Healso wished she might “Live longand prosper.”
The new United Way chairmanemphasized his reign will be dif-ficult, “because Tanya had twogreat years.”
Jenne pointed out that UnitedWay is doing a lot of things in thecommunity, adding, “But we cando more.”
Last year United Way workedwith 67 companies, 3,759donors, 1,352 volunteers, put in15,561 hours of service, andempowered 21,958 families toimprove their health, educationand financial stability.
“We broke a record, but we cando more,” Jenne said in conclud-ing the evening’s event. “Leavehere happy, but know we havethe opportunity to change theworld.”
“allow local government to runtheir own affairs” which Howellacknowledged was the meaningof his statement.
“Because you want the localgovernment in Bradley County torun their own affairs, instead ofthe state?” Hardaway rhetorical-ly asked Howell before the votewas taken.
Howell noted implementationof the new rate still requires theCounty Commission to pass theincrease with a three-fourthsmajority vote.
“We’re leaving it up to BradleyCounty to run their own affairs,”Hardaway said. “I love that.”
Howell said after the vote the
only other two steps involved areprocedural in nature, noting thestate Senate still has to approvethe bill on a third reading whereit is being sponsored by stateSen. Todd Gardenhire. It was set
aside waiting on final approval inthe state House.
“It should pass the Senate indays,” Howell said. “Then, it willgo for the governor’s signature.”
Commission FinanceCommittee chairman MilanBlake said Monday he expects tohave the vote by the fullCommission as early as March21, which could allow the newrate to be imposed by the begin-ning of April.
The new revenue is an impor-tant piece of the puzzle for thecounty’s $3 million share of the$6 million price tag for SpringBranch Industrial Park’s infra-structure.
