The case against a stable worker accused of
horse soring activities
at Wheelon Stables will
go to Blount County Circuit Court, while the case
against a second worker
was dismissed Tuesday
in Blount County General
Sessions Court.
Randall Stacy Gunter,
45, Laws Chapel Road,

aggravated cruelty to livestock animals and conspiracy to commit aggravated
livestock cruelty.

and sent the case to Circuit
Court.
Headrick said while the
state had offered “tenuous
proof” in the case, it was
enough to show probable
cause.
Prosecutors had also
presented evidence in
the case against Blake
Tanner Primm, a farrier at Wheelon Stables in
Maryville. Primm, 45, of
Sevierville, initially faced
an aggravated cruelty to
livestock animals charge,
but the charge was reduced
to cruelty to livestock animals.
At the end of Tuesday’s
hearing, Headrick said the
court did not find there
was probable cause to send
his case forward. Headrick
dismissed the case against
Primm and taxed court
costs to the state.

Taliban kill 141, mostly students, in attack
BY RIAZ KHAN
AND REBECCA SANTANA
The Associated Press
PESHAWAR, Pakistan —
In the deadliest slaughter
of innocents in Pakistan
in years, Taliban gunmen
attacked a military-run
school Tuesday and killed
141 people — almost all of
them students — before
government troops ended
the siege.
The massacre of innocent
children horrified a country already weary of unending terrorist attacks. Pakistan’s teenage Nobel Peace
laureate Malala Yousafzai
— herself a survivor of a
Taliban shooting — said
she was “heartbroken” by
the bloodshed.
Even Taliban militants in
neighboring Afghanistan
decried the killing spree,
calling it “un-Islamic.”

extremists had hoped the

June in the country’s tribal
region, it appeared to have
the opposite effect. Prime
Minister Nawaz Sharif
pledged to step up the campaign that — along with
U.S. drone strikes — has
targeted the militants.
“The fight will continue.
No one should have any

Taliban fighters have
struggled to maintain their
potency in the face of the
military operation. They
vowed a wave of violence
in response to the operation, but until Tuesday,
there has only been one
major attack by a splinter
group near the PakistanIndia border in November.

Seymour, Greenback
residences catch fire
BY WES WADE
[email protected]
Families from two Blount County homes were displaced Tuesday
morning following separate fires
several hours apart, one in Seymour
and one in Greenback.
The Seymour Volunteer Fire
Department (SVFD) responded to 914
Chris Haven Drive, Seymour, at 2:28
a.m. Tuesday to a fire which started
in the basement of the home.
John Linsenbigler, SVFD executive
administrator, said when firefighters
first arrived at 2:34 a.m. the fire had
spread to the garage and attic.
Blount County Sheriff’s Office deputies also responded and reported the
residence fully engulfed in flames
when they arrived.
James C. Hodge, 53, who rents the
residence, told deputies his son woke
him after discovering the couch in
the downstairs family room was on
fire, according to the Sheriff’s Office
report.
Linsenbigler said the couch was
near a fireplace in the basement.
Hodge told deputies he didn’t know
how the fire started. The Sheriff’s
CHRISTMAS TREE �MELTED’
“The top of the Christmas tree was
all burnt and melted,” Linsenbigler
said.
He said anyone wishing to donate to
the family can bring items to either
one of the SVFD stations or contact
the American Red Cross. Donations
can be dropped off at SVFD Station
No. 1, 101 Ford Hill Lane, Seymour, or
Station No. 2, 7915 Chapman Highway, Seymour.
For more details, please call SVFD
administration at 865-851-1157.
Items of need include women’s
clothing, size 18, and women’s shoes,
size 9ВЅ. Clothing sizes for Hodge
and his son are 2 XL and medium
for shirts, pant size 34/32 and 42/34,
and shoe sizes 15 and 10ВЅ.
Linsenbigler said firefighters were
able to salvage some of the home.
About 20 SVFD firefighters and five
trucks responded, along with four
firefighters and a tanker from the
Blount County Fire Department.
The residence is owned by James
D. Oehlson, of Georgia.
GREENBACK FIRE
Blount County firefighters later
responded to a Greenback residence
to assist the Greenback Fire Department with a structure fire.
The fire at 5621 Evergreen Farms
Lane was called out at around 8:57
a.m.
Greenback Fire Chief Ronnie Lett
said about 25 percent of the home
was damaged in the blaze. Fire and
water damage was contained to
the downstairs area of the twostory home, where the fire started,
Lett said.
The upstairs had heavy smoke damage. Lett said the fire was under control within 20 or 25 minutes after
firefighters arrived.
The cause of the fire is still under
investigation.
Lett said the American Red Cross
responded, but the homeowners —
Franklin Dixon and Melynda Lewis —
have insurance. Dixon, Lewis and their
two children were home when the fire
started, but no one was injured.
Lett said 10 vehicles and about 23
firefighters responded, including
personnel with the Blount County, Greenback and Lenoir City fire
departments.
Firefighters remained on scene
until around 1 p.m.

Neither Hodge, his wife or his

the family, but they did lose their
Christmas tree and several presents
in the fire.
OAK RIDGE — Federal
authorities have responded
to a chemical spill in a building at the Y-12 nuclear weapons plant in Oak Ridge.
Federal spokesman Steven Wyatt told the Knoxville News Sentinel that the
chemical acetonitrile, which
is a flammable and toxic solvent, was spilled Tuesday
morning at the Purification
Facility. He said employees
were evacuated from the
building and no injuries
were reported.
Wyatt said the chemical was contained in the
“affected area.”
The newspaper reports
the National Nuclear Security Administration and
its Y-12 contractor, Consolidated Nuclear Security, responded to the incident.

Thieves target lucrative baby formula market
From Staff Reports
There’s a new racket in town,
and it doesn’t involve booze,
guns or gambling.
It involves baby formula, of
all things. And it’s a bigger deal
than one might imagine.
The latest formula caper came
Friday in Alcoa, at Walmart on
Hunters Crossing Drive. According to Alcoa Police reports, the
culprit entered the store around
4 p.m., loaded up nearly $1,500 in
Similac brand baby formula in a
shopping cart, and made off in a
red Chevrolet Blazer.
Alcoa Police Sergeant Detective Kris Sanders said police
are reviewing store surveillance tapes, and hope to have
a suspect identified in the next
day or so.
In the meantime, Sanders said
the crime is not as unusual as it
might sound. “There are a number of stores around now that
resell baby products,” he said.
“They’ll buy used baby items,
and even formula, almost like
a pawn shop. And they don’t
always ask a lot of questions.”
By way of illustration, Sanders pointed to a case he worked
earlier this year, another Walmart incident. On May 13, three
men allegedly left the store with
$1,101.46 in baby formula. An
employee confronted them, and
managed to rescue most of the
goods before the trio jumped into
a gold Honda and sped away.
Sanders was later able to
locate the three suspects —
Matthew Duncan of Decatur,
and Nathan Hayes and Steven
Coster, both of Madisonville
— and arrest each of them
on a charge of theft of more
than $1,000.
“You get $1,000 worth of formula, sell it for $200 or $300,
then the store resells it for $400
or $500,” Sanders said. “And
everyone is making money on
it.”

Official orders review
of licensing in bus crash
The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE — Knox
County Schools Superintendent Jim McIntyre has
ordered a full review of all
licensing documents for
school bus drivers after
questions arose about the
qualifications of a driver
involved in a fatal crash.
The Knoxville News
Sentinel reports the action
came Monday, hours after
the newspaper reported
driving records at the
Tennessee Department of
Safety conflicted with the
school district’s records.
Knoxville police say two
buses were traveling in
opposite directions on
Asheville Highway when
the driver of one made a
sudden left turn across
the concrete median and
crashed into the other bus.
Two children and a teacher’s aide were killed in the
Dec. 2 crash.
“If any deficiencies are
found in the licensure of
any current drivers, there
will be significant consequences for our contractors,” McIntyre said. “It is
a very basic expectation of
our school system and our

community that all school
bus drivers are properly
licensed.”
State Department of
Safety spokeswoman
Dalya Qualls cited records
showing bus driver Joe
Gallman of Knoxville
has a permit to operate
a school bus instead of a
license.
Gallman disputed that
information.
“I’ve been driving for 40
years,” he said, though he
declined to produce his
permanent license.
Qualls said on Monday
that a mechanical malfunction of his bus prevented
Gallman from completing the bus certification
process in August, but the
testing center “inadvertently issued him an interim CDL paper license with
the school bus endorsement and voided it while
he was at the center.”
A document on file at
Knox County Schools
showing Gallman’s eligibility “would appear to have
been the voided interim
license,” Qualls said.
Qualls said the other
driver, James Davenport,
had a valid license.

A slow year is usually a
good year at New Hope,
Blount County’s children’s
advocacy center. But officials believe an uptick in
the number of children
served for 2014 is a product of better partnerships,
rather than more kids in
crisis.
The New Hope center
provides help to children
and their family members who have been victimized by sexual abuse.
The center on Cates Street
in Maryville offers a safe,
child-friendly environment
for interviews and investigations whenever there is
a disclosure of potential
sexual abuse.
New statistics show that
New Hope served 35 children in November.
The center hosted 14
forensic interviews for
the month, conducted 87
therapy sessions and oversaw one forensic medical
exam.
HIGHER 2014
NUMBERS
Those figures are mostly
par for the course, said New
Hope Executive Director
Tabitha Damron, though
she adds that monthly
totals tend to fluctuate a
good deal.
“We’ve had a wide range
this year,” Damron says.
“One month, the number
served was up over 60.”
�We
provide
them with
clothes,
if they’re in need.
We try to make the
transition as easy as
possible for them.’
Tabitha Damron
New Hope executive director
For the year, though,
the center does seem to
be working harder than
before.
Last year saw the center
serve around 350 children
total, while this year’s figure is already at 400, with
December figures pending.
Damron said the increase
is probably due to the fact
that a member of Child
Protective Services of Tennessee moved into the New
Hope offices in early January. A protective services
representative oversees
every sexual abuse investigation referred to New
Hope.
“When they moved back
in with us, that meant we
were able to work together
that much better,” Damron
said. “It meant there was
one less step in the process.”
Also noteworthy from the
November report is that
New Hope provided a Safe
Space alternative for nine
children for the month.
The Safe Space program
is designed to give children
who are being removed
from a particular living
circumstance a comfortable way station while they
await a new placement.
FRIENDLY
ENVIRONMENT
“It’s a friendly environment where they can watch
TV, have snacks, enjoy a
playroom,” she said.
“We provide them with
clothes, if they’re in need.
We try to make the transition as easy as possible
for them.
And nine is a pretty high number for that
program over the last few
months.”
Damron said New Hope
provided training in recognizing and dealing with
sexual abuse to 54 adults
last month through the
Stewards of Children program.
As to the therapy sessions — the organization
provides on-site therapy to
children in need — Damron said that continues to
be an area of special need
for New Hope.
“We’re trying to expand
our therapy program,” she
said. “There’s an ongoing
need for that. We’re always
looking for volunteers, and
for financial support.”

HOSTILE WITNESS
On Monday, prosecutors
learned that one of their
witnesses, a man who
worked at Wheelon Stables, was invoking his Fifth
Amendment right against
self-incrimination and did
not want to testify.
Knoxville attorney Marcos Garza told the court
there was the possibility his
client, Terry Hughes, could
be charged with perjury if
he testified. Garza said his
first concern was on statements Hughes apparently
gave to investigators which
could be used to charge
him with a crime against
livestock.
Garza said he also recently learned Hughes had
made a new statement
which differed from one
he previously gave investigators, which could be
used to perjure his client
if he testified.
Blount County Assistant
District Attorney General
Matt Dunn said the statute of limitations for any
misdemeanor charges
had passed, and the statute of limitations on felony charges was quickly
approaching.
“This matter’s a year and
a half old,” Dunn said. “He’s
not been charged at this
point.”
JOY KIMBROUGH | THE DAILY TIMES
BLOUNT COUNTY GENERAL SESSIONS COURT JUDGE ROBERT HEADRICK looks over a case Tuesday at
a probable cause hearing for two men charged in connection with alleged horse soring activities
at Wheelon Stables.
Headrick allowed Dunn to
question Hughes as a hostile witness. Garza invoked
his client’s Fifth Amendment privileges on nearly
every one of the dozen or
so questions Dunn proceeded to ask.
ATTORNEYS ARGUE
Assistant District Attorney General Mark Davidson, a prosecutor from
West Tennessee brought
in to assist with the case,
argued there was probable cause for both cases
to be sent forward. Davidson said the evidence and
testimony showed Gunter
and Primm had each sored
horses.
“They were sored in any
way you can sore a horse,”
Davidson said.
Maryville attorney
George Waters, representing Gunter, said there had
been no testimony or evidence provided to show
Gunter had sored the specific horse in question. He
also said there was lack of
proof there was any serious
injury done to the horse.
Loudon attorney Brian Nichols, representing
Primm, said a general sessions court is the “gatekeeper” for what kind of
cases can and should move
forward in the court system.
The case against Primm
is “exactly the kind of case
that should not,” Nichols
said.
Headrick then dismissed
the case against Primm and
sent Gunter’s case on to
Circuit Court.
Legislator joins effort against environmental regulations
BY LUCAS L. JOHNSON II
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE — A Tennessee Republican senator has joined lawmakers
in other states who have
filed legislation that seeks
to curtail federal regulation.
Senate Majority Leader
Mark Norris of Collierville
discussed the resolution on
Tuesday during a special
joint committee meeting
on the effect of Environmental Protection Agency
regulations in Tennessee.
The measure urges Congress to propose the “Regulation Freedom Amendment” to the U.S. Constitution.
Under the resolution,
whenever one-quarter of
the members of the U.S.

House or Senate oppose a
proposed federal regulation, it will require a majority vote of the House and
Senate to adopt that regulation.
Norris, who is also chairman of the national Council of State Governments,
said a number of other
states have filed similar
legislation. He didn’t know
the exact number, but said
about 150 state lawmakers
support the proposal.
“The resolution is
designed to build momentum in each of the states
so that folks in Congress
will ... see that we’re serious, and that if they don’t
act there is enough horse
power to take action on our
own, as states integral to
the federal system,” Norris said.
Most of Tuesday’s meeting of the Joint Government Operations Committee focused on the
Obama administration’s
plan to reduce carbon
dioxide emissions from
U.S. power plants by 30
percent from 2005 levels
by 2030.

OUR VOICE
Empty Pantry
Fund
Your pennies
matter
1400 families
in Blount
County
need food
DONNA WILSON | THE DAILY TIMES
For 62 years you
supported Empty
Pantry; help needed
I
t began 62 years ago, in November 1952, at a meeting of the
Maryville-Alcoa Jaycees Board of Directors. President T.
Ned Lee, later Maryville mayor, addressed the board discussing his strong feeling to try to meet the need for food to
help many families during the extended Christmas season.
This was two years before United Way of Blount County
was founded and there were no food banks serving the county. Numerous churches and families provided a few baskets
of food to the needy whom they knew.
Our first problem: During that period of time businesses
did not feel comfortable accepting donations for a specific
cause. Dean Stone of The Daily Times agreed to contact
Times publisher/owner Clyde B. Emert. Emert broke the line
and agreed for The Times to accept donations and responsibility for the Jaycees-Daily Times Empty Pantry Fund.
That first year we delivered 120 “baskets” of food to needy
Blount families at Christmas. At that time the population of
Blount County was about 50,000. Today it is 123,000. This
year, food will be delivered to 1,400 Blount families. That
means helping about 4,500 individuals.
The goal is to provide enough food to feed a family of four
for a week, taking some of the burden of the holidays off the
underprivileged in Blount County.
Each basket includes 44 items weighing roughly 70 pounds
per basket and will be delivered by more than 300 volunteers
covering 60 different routes on Sunday, Dec. 21.
Of course, that could depend on your donation to the fund.
Donations are federally tax income exempt under the
501(c)(3) exemption. The goal this year is $94,000 and the
total is about 50 percent met.
For many years prior to his retirement, Paul Bales of The
Daily Times staff headed up the effort. In recent years a more
formal organization was established.
Lon Fox, Ph.D., a local educator and past national president
of the Jaycees with more than 35 years of service to the project, is the current president. He is also well known as the
efficient chairman of the Jaycees annual Christmas Parade, a
totally separate project.
County Mayor Ed Mitchell, with 25 years of service, is vice
president of Empty Pantry; Tony Clark, with 35 years service,
is treasurer; Jill Cable, with more than 15 years service, is secretary. Board of directors includes Vernon Petree of the Jaycees, Publisher Carl Esposito of The Times, and Jamey Heron of the Junior Service League.
Those volunteers delivering the Empty Pantry Fund baskets also deliver Toys for Tots provided by Junior Service
League, co-chaired by Tabitha Hasty and Kelly Joyner.
For years the Tennessee Army National Guard has permitted use of its armory as well as volunteers who choose
to help pack and deliver these holiday packages. This year
Michael Huskey has overseen that hospitality.
Once exposed to the Empty Pantry Fund effort and moved
by the need being answered, scores have returned to volunteer for years.
Fox said, “We have always depended on the generosity of
the people of Blount County, I know they will always provide
enough funds to allow us to purchase all the food required
to feed 1,400 families during Christmas because no one
deserves to go hungry at Christmas.”
Many of us native Blount residents are proud to have been
born in such an excellent place. We might not have found
it on our own. Having visited all 50 states and more than 20
foreign countries we have seen no equal.
Lest the reader thinks we are carried away: A survey by
Wallethub lists Tennessee residents No. 4 among the 50
states in donating the highest percentage of their income to
help others. Only Utah, Mississippi and Alabama rank higher.
Ignoring such rankings, our own neighbors need our help
at Christmas!
Send gifts to: Empty Pantry Fund, P.O. 9740, Maryville,
TN 37802; or 8 a.m.-5 p.m. (Monday-Friday) bring it to The
Daily Times, 307 E. Harper Ave., Maryville, just behind
Broadway United Methodist Church, or online at www.

Texas-sized plate dispute
T
he Battle of Palmito Ranch near Brownsville,
Texas, on May 13, 1865, is called the last battle of the Civil War, but the Texas Division of
the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) might
consider that judgment premature, given its conflict with the state’s Department of Transportation and Department of Motor Vehicles. This
skirmish is of national interest because it implicates a burgeoning new entitlement — the right
to pass through life without encountering any
disagreeable thought.
Under Texas’ specialty license plate system,
plates can be created by the Legislature by specific enactments, or can, for a fee, be designed
by individuals, nonprofits or businesses. In
the private instances, Texas is selling space for
advertising. The specialty plates exhort (“Be
a Blood Donor”), emote (“I’d Rather Be Golfing”), celebrate (NASCAR, many universities)
and commemorate (“Buffalo Soldiers,” “Korea
Veteran”).
The Texas SCV’s design caused a commotion
because the organization’s logo includes the
Confederate battle flag. The Texas DOT committee that approves specialty plates approved
the SCV plate before it disapproved it because
an official considered the plate “controversial.”
The Texas Transportation Code says the state
may refuse to create a plate “if the design might
be offensive to any member of the public.” Yes,
any.
A district court rejected the SCV’s contention
that this decision was unconstitutional but the
5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals held that specialty plates are private speech, so the state had
violated the First Amendment by engaging in
viewpoint discrimination against the SCV.
Texas is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court,
probably in vain. The SCV’s brief notes that
“every circuit to address a specialty plate program enabling private parties to submit their
own specialty plate designs has held that the
plates constitute private speech, the First
Amendment applies, and regulation has to be
viewpoint neutral.”
By now there is, believe it or not, a body of
license plate law. In 1977, the Supreme Court
upheld the right of a Jehovah’s Witness in
New Hampshire to edit out, with tape or metal
shears or otherwise, that state’s license plate
slogan “Live Free or Die.” The plaintiff held that
“life is more precious than freedom” and the
state could not compel him to “foster” religious
or political “concepts” with which he disagreed.
Some language that is put on plates by legislative action — e.g., Idaho’s “Famous Potatoes” —
is government speaking its mind and need not
be neutral. In Illinois, where specialty plates
require a specific legislative enactment, when
a pro-life group sought a “Choose Life” plate,
the state decided to exclude the subject of abortion, pro and con, so the denial was viewpoint
neutral.
Texas, however, denied the SCV plate explicitly because it, with its flag, was “offensive,”
which is an impermissible
reason for denying speech.
The hearing that forbade
the SCV plate approved
a Buffalo Soldiers plate
in spite of some Native
Americans saying they
were offended by this reference to the 19th-century
African-American military units that participated
in battles against Native
Americans. In 2011, however, the Supreme Court
held:
“The Constitution does
not permit the government to decide which
types of otherwise protected speech are sufficiently offensive to require protection for the
unwilling listener or viewer. Rather ... the burden normally falls upon the viewer to avoid further bombardment of (his) sensibilities simply
by averting (his) eyes.”
The new entitlement aims to spare the people
this burden. At many American colleges and
universities, where thinking goes to hibernate,
freedom of expression is restricted for the purpose of sparing the delicate sensibilities of the
most exquisitely sensitive persons on the campuses. The First Amendment is construed to
stipulate that there shall be no abridgement of
free speech — unless the speech annoys, saddens, angers, dismays or otherwise discombobulates the emotional equilibrium or intellectual
serenity of any listener.
Inevitably, this entitlement is expanded to
include the right to assume a fetal position and
be absolved of burdens if news of some event
in the wider world distresses some students.
So, Columbia University Law School recently
allowed students to postpone final exams if
these frail flowers felt that their performance
would be “impaired” because they had been
traumatized by the fact that grand juries in Ferguson, Mo., and Staten Island, N.Y., did not indict
police officers in cases involving Michael Brown
and Eric Garner.
Columbia evidently is training lawyers for an
America so tranquil it will not need any lawyers.
Tranquil because silent.

Melanie reminds
of the good here
Dear Editor:
You know ... it just doesn’t
happen in many areas.
The combination of having
caring folks here in Blount
County sharing their time with
others in need ... a newspaper
who dedicates space to tell us
of that goodness, ... and a talented writer in Melanie Tucker
who reminds us almost daily
that there is good in the world
and it begins right here in our
backyard.
In reading her many articles
it is obvious that she listens
to the facts with her ears, but
incorporates that in writing
from her heart.
Along with the photos which
accompany the stories, it provides the reader with a sense
of just how fortunate we are to
be living in this area.
The beauty of our East Tennessee Mountains is only outdone by the beauty and goodness of its people.
A big “thank you” to The Daily Times and Melanie Tucker
for caring enough to give us
this blessing and making our
days here even more meaningful.

Financial analysts anticipate that
FedEx’s latest earnings improved
from a year ago.
The shipping giant, which is due
to report its fiscal second-quarter
financial results today, is benefiting from growth in online
shopping, which has led to a
pickup in package volume.
Investors will be listening for
details on how package shipping
volume is shaping up headed into
the peak of the holiday season, a
key part of the year for FedEx.

Lower prices seen
U.S. crude oil prices, which have
fallen by nearly half since June,
have helped bring down U.S.
consumer prices this year.
The decline can be seen in the
Labor Department’s consumer
price index. Economists predict
that the November index, due out
today, declined 0.1 percent from
the previous month.

Eye on the Fed
A two-day meeting of the Fed’s
policymaking committee wraps up
today.
Wall Street will be listening for
clues as to how long the central
bank plans to keep short-term
interest rates near zero. Fed
officials have previously indicated
that they would continue to hold
short-term rates at present levels
until they see signs of rising
inflation.
AP
Stocks ended lower Tuesday,
the third market drop in as many
trading days. Consumer
discretionary and information
technology stocks were among
the biggest decliners in the
Standard & Poor's 500 index.
The S&P 500 has lost 4.6
percent this month.

and expects another year of earnings
growth in 2015. CVS Health will raise

GO LOW AND SLOW FOR A RIB ROAST RECIPE THAT DELIGHTS THE TASTEBUDS. 12A

MARK A. LARGE | THE DAILY TIMES
Y
OUR CHRISTMAS FEAST
Serve these festive treats with your family meal
THIS RECIPE FOR ZABAGLIONE is one that has been adapted from Ina Garten’s recipe. There is a lot to love in this sweet dish.
I
adapted Ina Garten’s recipe for
zabaglione to my way of doing
things without losing the flavor
and texture. Garten is better known
as the Barefoot Contessa and has
her own show on the Food Network.
She has written eight cookbooks. There
are plans for
another.
If you choose
not to cook with
alcohol for this
recipe, you can
substitute Jell-O
instant French
vanilla pudding
made with half
and half instead
of just milk.
Add a tablespoonful of sour cream, a tablespoonful of Cool Whip and a teaspoon of
pure vanilla. Mix well. As long as the
cookies are homemade, the dessert
will be a hit. I searched high and low
for the amaretto cookies asked for in
the recipe. Not one cookie to be had
in Maryville. It was less time consuming to make my own.
I published Slow Cooker Candy at
least 10 years ago in Women’s Times
then later in my cookbook, “Olivia Shares Recipes From Women’s
Times.” If you don’t have the recipe,
you will now. It is too good to believe
until you try it. I learned this year you
can half the recipe with equally delicious results. I lost my crock-pot that
fit the whole recipe.
Merry Christmas and love to you
all.

COCONUT PATTY PIE
BY ELIZABETH KARMEL
The Associated Press
Coconut is my family’s
must-have sweet during
the holidays. Usually we
have a fresh coconut cake,
but my mom has been
known to sneak a Mounds
bar — her favorite candy
— when the urge strikes.
I made this pie in honor
of my mother. Her favorite
candy bar is a Mounds, and
this pie is reminiscent of that
dark chocolate and coconut
confection. If you’d like to
make this recipe gluten-free,
substitute 1вЃ„2 tablespoon of
cornstarch for the all-purpose
flour called for in the custard.
Start to п¬Ѓnish: 4 hours (30
865.243.2679
minutes active)
Servings: 8
For the coconut crust:
4 tablespoons (1вЃ„2 stick)
unsalted butter, softened
14-ounce bag sweetened
shredded coconut, divided
Pinch of salt
For the custard:
3 large egg yolks
1 cup heavy cream
1вЃ„4 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1вЃ„2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose
flour
Pinch salt
Pinch fresh nutmeg
For the chocolate glaze:
1вЃ„2 cup heavy cream
8 ounces (11вЃ„3 cups) semisweet chocolate chips
Pinch salt
www.NovaCopy.com
1вЃ„2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Heat the oven to 350 F.
To prepare the crust, in a
food processor combine the
butter, all but 1 cup of the
coconut, and the salt. Pulse
until the mixture begins to
come together but before it
forms a ball, about 40 pulses.
Transfer the mixture to a
9-inch pie plate. Press the
coconut mixture evenly over
the bottom and up sides of
the pan to form crust.
Set the pie plate on a baking
sheet. Bake for 15 minutes,
or until the edges begin to
brown. Transfer the pie plate
to a wire rack to cool completely. Leave the oven on.
Meanwhile, prepare the
custard п¬Ѓlling. In a large bowl,
mix together the egg yolks,
cream, coconut milk and
vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk
together the sugar, flour, salt
and nutmeg, then add to the
liquid ingredients. Mix well
and set aside.
When the coconut crust is
cool, sprinkle the bottom
with the remaining 1 cup of
coconut and pour the custard
over it. Bake until set, 30 to
40 minutes. Remove from
oven, set on a cooling rack
and let cool.
While the pie cools, prepare
the chocolate glaze.
In a small saucepan over
medium heat, bring the heavy
cream to a boil. Place the
chocolate in a medium bowl,
then pour the hot cream over
it. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes,
then stir until the chocolate
is completely melted. Stir in
the vanilla and salt until the
mixture is glossy.
When the pie has cooled, but
is still just warm to the touch,
pour the chocolate glaze over
it, spreading it evenly all the

Internet obsession
threatens to
consume man’s life
DAILY CALENDAR
PLAYTIME
JOSHUA POWELL & THE GREAT
TRAIN ROBBERY ON THE “BLUE
PLATE SPECIAL”: The name
“Joshua Powell and the
Great Train Robbery” may
not fit on a marquee, but
the moniker suits the band
just fine, according to the
group’s website. Joshua
and his folk band borrowed
their brand from a 1903
silent Western and have
crafted their sound in that
sure-footed Americana
tradition ever since. The
crux of their music is in
the storytelling — stories
that embrace the fact that
we’re all human together.
More from the website:
“The band may have
originated in the heartland,
but there is something
distinctly Southern about
their songs. There is dusty
peacefulness in the lulling
folk that evokes comparisons to Iron and Wine
and Fionn Regan, and an
unmistakable grit that
erupts like a bar fight when
the band delves into their
rockier side. Joshua and
the band spent nearly two
years in Indiana perfecting
this duality as they played
every Midwest bar and
coffeehouse that would
have them.” At noon today,
the band will stop by the
WDVX-FM “Blue Plate Special” for a free performance.
It’s broadcast live from the
Knoxville Visitor’s Center,
301 S. Gay St. in downtown
Knoxville, and you can attend for no charge.

DEAR ABBY: I am a
58-year-old recent widower. My wife and I were
very happy for 29 years,
and that included a satisfying sex life. Although
I am not ready to date
yet, I continue to have a
strong sex drive.
I’m finding the Internet is a good alternative
to “hooking up” at this
time. However — and
this is embarrassing to
admit at my age — I’m
beginning to wonder if I
have crossed a line into
spending too much time
online.
My question is, how
much is too much? I
want to be healthy and
in balance with this,
but for the first time, I
understand how people
can become addicted to
Internet porn. — JUST
WONDERING IN GEORGIA
DEAR JUST WONDERING:
You have my sympathy for your loss.
Because you are concerned enough about the
amount of time you’re
spending on adult Internet sites that you’re asking me about it, I think
we both know that
you’re not spending
enough time in the real
world. If this has become
so much of a preoccupation that you’re substituting porn for relationships with real people,
then you are “overdosing” and could benefit
from talking to a psychologist about it.
DEAR ABBY: During a
disagreement with my
boyfriend, he called me
a “b----.” We have been
together for 13 years, and

he has never disrespected or degraded me that
way before. He apologized later and said what
he meant was I was acting like one (as if that’s
any better), but I’m having a hard time getting
past this.
When he called me
that, I was stunned. I felt
nauseated the rest of the
day, as if he had literally
punched me in the stomach. Am I wrong to react
this way? Am I making
a big deal out of it, and

New York City delight
Russ & Daughters gives fun, flavorful experience
BY BETH J. HARPAZ
AP Travel Editor
NEW YORK — Russ
& Daughters has been
a New York City institution on the Lower
East Side for 100 years,
a deli selling what’s
known as “appetizing”
— traditional foods like
bagels and lox that were
brought here from Eastern Europe by Jewish
immigrants, but are now
standard breakfast and
brunch fare around the
city and beyond.
Fortunately for tourists who don’t have a
kitchen to take these
goodies home to — and
anyone else who’d prefer their chopped liver
sitting down rather than
to go — Russ & Daughters opened a cafe earlier this year three blocks
from the store. It’s run by
cousins Josh Russ Tupper and Niki Russ Federman, the fourth generation of Russes in the family business. They’re the
great-grandchildren of
the founder, the late Joel
Russ, a Polish immigrant
who sold food from a
pushcart before opening
a store in 1914.
DINING EXPERIENCE
Not only does the cafe
food stand up to the
store’s hallowed reputation, but the entire experience of dining there is
just a load of fun. There
are nods to the original Russ & Daughters,
like enormous hunks of
salmon in glass display
cases and the menu’s
retro typeface, which
echoes the neon sign on
the takeout shop. Many

City. Russ & Daughters’ take-out business, founded in 1914, sells
traditional Jewish foods.
menu items are named
with a charming wink
at Yiddish — combo
plates like “Mensch” and
“Shtetl.”
Some menu items are
the same as what you
get in the store: your
chopped liver, your
knishes, your pickles
and pickled herring.
But others take classic flavors and favorites
to inspired new levels.
Potato latkes, a Hanukkah treat available at the
cafe any time of year, are
truly outstanding, crispy
yet fluffy, served with
either wild salmon roe
and creme fraiche, or
with traditional applesauce and sour cream.
The smoked whitefish
chowder with dill is a
revelation: Everything
you love about chowder
and everything you love
about smoked fish, all in
one bowl.
HALVAH ICE CREAM
Do not leave the cafe
without trying the halvah
ice cream, which turns
the dense Middle Eastern sesame candy into a
creamy, delectable frozen
treat, with salted caramel
accentuating the dessert’s
sweet-and-salty flavors.
Even folks who don’t love
halvah will love this ice
cream.
While the cafe menu is
not huge, there’s something for every time of
day, whether you want
breakfast, brunch, lunch,
dinner, drinks, or just, as
they say, a nosh. There
are egg dishes, smoked
fish platters, open-faced
sandwiches, salads, soups

and sides. Booze includes
wine, beer, Champagne,
artisanal cocktails like
the Lower East Side —
gin, lime juice, dill and
cucumber — and bloody
marys with four types of
infused vodka. Homemade soft drinks include,
of course, cream soda,
coffee soda and chocolate
egg creams, plus a lemonlime soda bursting with
flavor.
The cafe’s blend of tradition and trendiness is
perfect for its location.
The Lower East Side was
home to an enormous
immigrant population in
the early 20th century.
Today, the area reflects
its roots as one of the
city’s poorest neighborhoods, but its transformation to a fashionable
hotspot is also evident
in the profusion of sleek
bars, condos and upscale
stores. If the old and new
flavors at Russ & Daughters’ whet your appetite
for a closer look at the
neighborhood’s immigrant history, be sure to
visit the Lower East Side
Tenement Museum, just
a few doors from the
cafe.
And if you can’t make
it here to sample all of
this in person, well, the
appetizing store will
ship. Either way, as they
say in the old neighborhood — and on the Russ
& Daughters menu —
“Ess gezinter hayt.” Eat
in good health.

Twas the night to pack groceries...
Twas the night to pack groceries, when all through the place
Not a creature was idle, everyone was running a race;
The groceries were stacked by the walls and everywhere,
In hopes that the volunteers soon would be there;
The children wanted to help all that they could,
While thinking of their jobs, wanting to do good;
People pushing grocery carts, and all helping out,
Folks sacking groceries, as they followed their route,
When the groceries are packed, we shall wait a few days,
Then we’ll return to the armory for the next phase,
We’ll load up the trucks and head on out,
We’ll be delivering food and toys to those on our route.
With volunteer drivers, so jolly and quick,
You know without a doubt they’re kin to St. Nick.
And the morning passes quickly, as their goods they deliver,
And the cold mountain air sometimes brings a shiver.
But the warmth that comes when you see the joy
That crosses the face of each girl and boy
Chases away the cold as you call out the names
Of each family waiting, each receiving the same.
To the top of the mountain we must go
Taking groceries to many below
We’ll make our rounds again this year
Bringing more smiles from ear to ear.
Before long, our deliveries will all be done
With a humbleness that won’t go unsung.
The Spirit of Christmas within us abounds
As we manage to complete our annual rounds.
And as we look upon the faces of those that we meet
There’s something we see there, yes, something so sweet,
A determination to survive and never give up,
Determination abounds Ne’er runs amuck
Their eyes, how they shine from the strength they possess
Music in their hearts, love they confess,
Strong in their faith, like rivers it does run
Bringing hope to them all and when it’s all done
We’ll walk away the poorer man knowing that it’s so
These are the ones that have riches greater than gold!

fortunate of Blount County

Man revels
in new �eat
more kale’
trademark
BY WILSON RING
The Associated Press
MONTPELIER, Vt. —
A folk artist who became
a folk hero to some after
picking a fight with fastfood giant Chick-fil-A
over use of the phrase
“eat more kale” — similar
to their trademarked “eat
mor chikin” — has won
his legal battle.
Bo Muller-Moore said
Friday outside the Statehouse that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
had granted his application to trademark “eat
more kale,” a phrase he
says promotes local agriculture. He silk-screens
the phrase on T-shirts and
sweatshirts and prints it
on bumper stickers that
are common in Vermont
and beyond.
“I’ve called Chick-fil-A’s
bluff on their cease-anddesist demands,” MullerMoore said, speaking to
about two dozen supporters — including Gov.
Peter Shumlin — who
wore green “eat more
kale” stickers. “I am not
ceasing and desisting.
I am thriving, thanks
to people like you and
thanks to Vermont and
people from beyond.”
Chick-fil-A uses the
phrase in images that
include cows holding
signs with the misspelled
phrase “eat mor chikin”
because, as Chick-fil-A
spokeswoman Carrie
Kurlander put it, “when
people eat chicken, they
do not eat cows.”
Her response to the
kale decision: “Cows
love kale, too.”
Muller-Moore started
using the phrase in 2001
after a farmer friend
who grows the leafy
vegetable that is known
for its nutritional value
asked him to make three
T-shirts for his family for
$10 each.
The phrase caught on
and, with the approval
of the farmer, MullerMoore began putting it
on clothing and bumper
stickers.
In the summer of 2011,
Muller-Moore sought to
trademark the phrase.
It was a short time later that Chick-fil-A sent
Muller-Moore a letter
telling him to stop using
the phrase because the
company felt it could
be confused with “eat
mor chikin.” In the letter, Chick-fil-A cited 30
examples of others who
had tried to use the “eat
more” phrase and withdrew it after the company objected. But MullerMoore refused. He used
social media and won
the support of state officials, including Shumlin
and pro-bono lawyers,
including law students
from a legal clinic at
the University of New
Hampshire law school.

SLOW-ROASTED STANDING RIB ROAST WITH BEARNAISE SAUCE
BY SARA MOULTON
1вЃ„2 cup dry white wine
The Associated Press
1вЃ„2 cup Champagne or white
Here’s my holiday
conundrum, and I bet
you can relate: I am in
charge of this year’s holiday meal, which will feature a big standing rib
roast. Everyone in my
family wants their meat
rare, but I want the outside to be nicely seared.
How to have both?
Cooking a big roast at
high heat can get you that
nice crisp outer crust,
but it comes at a price.
Cooking a roast at high
heat for even part of the
time generally means you
end up with just a small
core of rare meat running
down the center of the
roast.
Luckily, the fix is easy.
Instead of roasting the
meat at high heat for any
amount of time, I briefly sear the roast on the
stovetop before it goes in
the oven. Then it is hands
off time while the beef
slowly comes up to whatever internal temperature you want in a 200 F
oven. That’s it. Perfect
outside, perfect inside.
You’ll want to make
sure your oven is well
calibrated and that you
have a proper instant
thermometer. And don’t
forget to let the roast rest
after you have cooked it

TALIBAN: Seven militants
scale wall using ladder
FROM 1A
Analysts said the school
siege showed that even
diminished, the militant
group still could inflict
horrific carnage.
The rampage at the
Army Public School and
College began in the
morning when seven militants scaled a back wall
using a ladder, said Maj.
Gen. Asim Bajwa, a military spokesman. When
they reached an auditorium where students had
gathered for an event, they
opened fire.
A 14-year-old, Mehran
Khan, said about 400
students were in the hall
when the gunmen broke
through the doors and
started shooting. They
shot one of the teachers
in the head and then set
her on fire and shouted
“God is great!” as she
screamed, added Khan,
who survived by playing
dead.
From there, they went
to classrooms and other
parts of the school.
“Their sole purpose, it
seems, was to kill those
innocent kids. That’s what
they did,” Bajwa said. Of
the 141 people slain before
government troops ended
the assault eight hours later, 132 were children and
nine were staff members.
Another 121 students and
three staff members were
wounded.
The seven attackers,
wearing vests of explosives, all died in the eighthour assault. It was not
immediately clear if they
were all killed by the soldiers or whether they
blew themselves up, he
said.
The wounded — some
still wearing their green
school blazers — flooded into hospitals as terrified parents searched
for their children. By
evening, funeral services
were already being held
for many of the victims
as clerics announced the
deaths over mosque loudspeakers.
The government
declared three days
of mourning for what
appeared to be Pakistan’s
deadliest since a 2007 suicide bombing in the port
city of Karachi killed 150
people.
“My son was in uniform
in the morning. He is in a
casket now,” wailed one
parent, Tahir Ali, as he
came to the hospital to
collect the body of his
14-year-old son, Abdullah. “My son was my
dream. My dream has
been killed.”
One of the wounded students, Abdullah Jamal,
said he was with a group
of eighth, ninth and 10th
graders who were getting
first-aid instructions and
training with a team of
army medics when the
violence became real.
Panic broke out when the
shooting began.
“I saw children falling
down who were crying
and screaming. I also fell
down. I learned later that I
have got a bullet,” he said,
speaking from his hospital bed.

Ruby Tuesday 2Q sales fall 1 percent
From Staff Reports
Sales at company-owned Ruby
Tuesday restaurants decreased by
1 percent during the second fiscal quarter that ended Dec. 2, the
Maryville-based casual dining chain
reported Tuesday.
The same-restaurant guest count
decline of 1.3 percent was comparable to the same quarter of the prior
fiscal year, according to Ruby Tuesday Inc.
JJ Buettgen, chairman of the board,
president and CEO, said, “Although our
second-quarter same-restaurant guest
count performance was in line with
the Knapp Track industry benchmark,
our same-restaurant sales results fell
short of our expectations.”
The results compare to same-restaurant sales guidance provided on
Oct. 8, which was up 1 percent to 2
percent for the second quarter.
In light of the results, Ruby Tuesday said in a release that it expects to
update fiscal year 2015 same-restaurant sales guidance when announcing
full second-quarter earnings on Jan.
8, 2015, and also to review fiscal year
2015 guidance at that time.

BRIEFS
Ex-Marine wanted in killings found dead
and then smashed his ex-wife’s sliding
glass door with a propane tank.
The killings set off the second major
manhunt to transfix Pennsylvania in
the past few months. Eric Frein spent
48 days on the run in the Poconos after
the ambush slaying of a state trooper
in September.
“There’s no reason, no valid excuse,
no justification for snuffing out these
six innocent lives and injuring another child,” Ferman said. “This is just a
horrific tragedy that our community
has had to endure. We’re really numb
from what we’ve had to go through
over the past two days.”
Stone’s former wife, 33-year-old
Nicole Stone, was found shot twice
in the face in her apartment after a
neighbor heard glass breaking and
saw Stone fleeing around 5 a.m. with
their two young daughters. The girls
were later found safe with Stone’s
neighbors.
Also killed were Nicole Stone’s mother, grandmother, sister, brother-in-law
and 14-year-old niece. A 17-year-old
nephew suffered knife wounds to the

The Associated Press
PENNSBURG, Pa. — An Iraq War
veteran suspected of killing his ex-wife
and five of her relatives in a shooting and slashing frenzy was found
dead of self-inflicted stab wounds
Tuesday in the woods of suburban
Philadelphia, ending a day-and-a-half
manhunt that closed schools and left
people on edge.
Bradley William Stone’s body was
discovered a half-mile from his Pennsburg home, about 30 miles northwest
of Philadelphia. The 35-year-old former Marine sergeant had cuts in the
center of his body, and some kind of
knife was found at the scene, Montgomery County District Attorney Risa
Vetri Ferman said.
Locked in a custody dispute so bitter that his ex-wife feared for her life,
Stone went on a gruesome, 90-minute
killing rampage before daybreak Monday at three homes in three nearby
towns, authorities said. He bashed in
the back doors of the first two homes

head and hands, and Ferman said he
was in “very serious” condition.
The adults were all shot. The teens
were slashed and suffered blows to
the head; the nephew had a gaping
skull fracture, authorities said.
“It’s a relief that they found him,”
said Stone’s neighbor Dale Shupe.
“Now we know he’s not out trying to
do more harm to anybody else.”
As the manhunt dragged on and
SWAT teams swarmed through neighborhoods, at least five schools within a
few miles of Stone’s home closed, and
others were locked down. Veterans’
hospitals and other places tightened
security.
Ashley Tessier, of Pennsburg, took
her sick 7-month-old son to the pediatrician in a stroller Tuesday as SWAT
teams knocked on doors along her
route.
Stone and his ex-wife had fighting
over their children’s custody since she

emergency request for custody this
month and was denied Dec. 9, Ferman said.

Jeb Bush answered the

SANAA, Yemen —
Two suicide car bombers rammed their vehicles into a Shiite rebels’
checkpoint and a house
south of the Yemeni capital Tuesday as a school
bus was traveling nearby,
killing at least 26 people
including at least 16 primary school students,
according to the Yemeni
government, rebels and
witnesses.
Witnesses said that
the first car was loaded
with potatoes apparently
disguising explosives.
When the car bomber
arrived at the checkpoint manned by rebels,
he blew up the vehicle
as the bus was passing.

Vols’ tight end production not slowing

KNOXVILLE —
Between the 2013 and 2014
seasons, Tennessee’s tight
end production more than
doubled — from 15 receptions to 33; from 98 receiving yards to 355.
With true freshman
Ethan Wolf accounting
for 21 of those 33 receptions and 203 of those 355
yards, don’t expect those
numbers to go down anytime soon.
“We were a little more
active in the throw game,”
tight ends coach Mark
Elder said after practice
Tuesday. “I think it just

was concerned.
“I’m sure that will continue to grow as guys get
more and more involved
in the pass game by being
more experienced, better
technique and all those
things.”
Brendan Downs caught
12 passes for 70 yards
and two touchdowns in
2013, Tennessee’s first
year under Butch Jones
and offensive coordina-
tor Mike Bajakian.
Those numbers made
for seventh in receiving
stats, four spots ahead of
then-freshman A.J. Branisel, who had three catches
for 28 yards.
Wolf’s 21 catches for 203
yards dominated the position this season, ahead
of Alex Ellis’ six catches
for 115 yards and Daniel
Helm’s six for 37.
Branisel spent 2014 as
a redshirt. Helm has left
the program while seeking a transfer. That leaves
plenty of room for Wolf
to keep growing.

observations that
are bound to arrive
when you, our dear readers, open up The Maze
Runner special section in
today’s edition.
There isn’t a recap of
the Maryville-Alcoa
game included in the
commemorative section
chronicling the runs to
the championship game.
It’s not an accident, it’s by
design.
The last few seasons,
I’ve become a fan of
Maryville College head
coach Mike Rader’s touch
phrase, “man sharpens
man as stone sharpens
stone.” That’s exactly
what the Battle of Pistol Creek has become.
It doesn’t derail either
team’s title hopes or aspirations, but it certainly
helps sharpen the focus
and provides that early
measuring stick that both
sides use in following
weeks to reenforce the
lessons to players on the
practice field. It makes
both teams better.
It’s a challenge in the
vein of cousins on the
driveway playing for basketball bragging rights,
rather than your-titledreams-die-here sort of
test. Rather than place it
in the Maryville side of

NO. 11 TENNESSEE 54, Wichita St. 51
KNOXVILLE — Cierra Burdick scored 10 points and pulled
down a career-high 17 rebounds
Tuesday as No. 11 Tennessee held
off Wichita State 54-51 to earn its
fourth straight victory. Wichita
State (6-3) rallied from a 10-point,
second-half deficit and cut Tennessee’s lead to 52-51 on Kelsey
Jacobs’ 3-pointer with 23.3 seconds remaining. Ariel Massengale sank two free throws to make
it 54-51 with 5.1 seconds left.
Tennessee’s Isabelle Harrison
stole the ensuing inbounds pass,
but Wichita State’s Jaleesa Chapel stole it back in the closing
seconds. Chapel’s desperation
shot from about midcourt hit
the right side of the backboard
as the buzzer sounded.
Harrison had 14 points and
h9OUR.O0ROBLEM4IRE$EALERv
nine rebounds for Tennessee
(8-2). Alexa Middleton added
10 points.
Alex Harden scored 19 points
and Alie Decker added 17 for
Wichita State, which had its fourgame winning streak snapped.
Tennessee guard Andraya Carter was helped off the floor in the
final minute of the game after
Harrison inadvertently collided
with her. Lady Vols coach Holly
Warlick said after the game that
Carter had cut her lip but added
that “I think she’ll be fine.”
It was the first meeting between
these two programs and marked
a reunion of sorts for Wichita
State head coach Jody Adams and
assistant Bridgette Gordon, who
both played on national cham-
pionship teams for Tennessee.
Gordon remains the Lady Vols’
second-leading career scorer,
and her No. 30 jersey hangs from
the Thompson-Boling Arena rafters.
Warlick, an assistant coach on
Pat Summitt’s staff when Adams
and Gordon were at Tennessee,
gave both of them a bouquet of
orange roses in a pregame midcourt ceremony. Adams and Gordon then headed into the stands
and embraced Summitt.
Adams’ team proceeded to stay
close throughout the first half
by continually delivering from
long range. The Shockers shot
6 of 12 from 3-point range in a
first half that featured six lead
changes, though Tennessee’s late
rally gave the Lady Vols a 31-28
edge at the intermission.

the Lady Mountaineers to
a 62-30 win at Lenoir City
High School.
“Defense is nothing but
effort and guts,” Howard
told The Daily Times.
“That’s all that is. ... That’s
two games in a row that
we’ve played pretty good
defense. Girls are playing
much better on ball defense,
and they’re getting after it
and giving an effort.”
Had one peaked in early
on Tuesday night’s action,
though, a 32-point blowout
likely would not have been
the forgone conclusion.
Heritage (9-1, 3-1 District
4-AAA) missed a plethora of easy looks, allowing
the Lady Panthers to hang
around (5-7, 0-4) for the
majority of the first quarter.
A scenario that’s now
played itself out in two
straight Lady Mountaineer contests.
“We came out and missed
like eight layups, and that’s
the same thing we did
against William Blount (last
Friday),” Howard said. “You
just can’t miss easy shots
like that.
“Then we started hitting
them, and that’s when we
opened it up. We held them
in check pretty much the
whole first half.”

MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES CENTER MARC GASOL (33) looks to pass
against Golden State Warriors center Festus Ezeli (left) Tuesday in Memphis.
Conley, Memphis halt
Warriors’ win streak
BY TERESA M. WALKER
NBA
AP Sports Writer
MEMPHIS 105, Golden State 98
MEMPHIS — Marc
Gasol scored 24 points,
and the Memphis Grizzlies snapped the Golden
State Warriors’ NBA-best
16-game winning streak
with a 105-98 victory on
Tuesday night.
Mike Conley and Zach
Randolph each scored
17 points, and Randolph
also had 10 rebounds as
Memphis earned its fifth
straight win. Vince Carter added a season-high
16 points, and Jon Leuer
had 11.
The Warriors came in
with the NBA’s best record
at 21-2. They lost for the
first time since Nov. 11
against the Spurs, also the
last team to beat Memphis.
This was the first time in
NBA history in which both
teams had 19 or more wins
in the first 24 games.
Golden State star Stephen Curry missed backto-back 3-pointers in the
final 10 seconds.
He had 19 points on 9-of25 shooting, including a
1-for-10 night from beyond
the arc.
Klay Thompson scored
22 points for the Warriors,
and Marreese Speights had
18. Harrison Barnes scored
11 points while playing
with a mask to protect a
broken bone in his face.
The Warriors trailed by
as many as 14 and got within two twice in the fourth
quarter, the last at 90-88
on an alley-oop dunk for
Livingston with 5:09 to
go. Memphis responded
with a 7-0 run capped by
two foul shots for Courtney Lee after Golden State
coach Steve Kerr and Warriors guard Andre Iguodala each picked up a technical foul.
Golden State closed a
three-game road swing
with 7-foot center Andrew
Bogut sitting out a fourth
straight game with a right
knee injury and David Lee
still out with a hamstring
problem.
The Warriors countered
the size difference inside
with Curry and Thompson going to the basket
repeatedly.
They managed to tie
Memphis with 50 points
in the paint.
M e m p h i s ’ re s e r ve s
helped fuel one of the best
runs in franchise history
in the second quarter, with
the Grizzlies scoring 20
straight points while hitting their first six shots
of the period. Carter hit
three of his 3-pointers in
the surge, helping Memphis to a 57-49 lead at halftime.

TENNESSEE TITANS QUARTERBACK CHARLIE WHITEHURST (12) scrambles away from New York Jets outside linebacker Calvin Pace (97)
on the final play of Sunday’s 16-11 loss in Nashville.
Titans’ good-time Charlie
Whitehurst looks to have fun as Tennessee starter
BY TERRY MCCORMICK
UP NEXT
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE — It’s only fitting that
Charlie Whitehurst is the Titans starting quarterback again. They haven’t
won since he started against Jacksonville on Oct. 12, and that’s the opponent
again coming up Thursday night.
So for this game between a pair of
2-12 teams fighting for draft position,
Whitehurst believes he has a simple
formula to help the Titans to victory.
Relax and have fun.
“We don’t really have a lot to lose,”
Whitehurst said Tuesday. “That’s kind
of our mindset. We’re going to go out
there, be confident, let it all hang out
and try and get a win.”
The career backup who signed with
the Titans this offseason already has
set career highs by completing 69
of 122 for 967 yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. He has
played in five games and will make
his fourth start Thursday night in a
big turnaround for a quarterback who
had gone two years without throwing
a regular-season pass heading into
this season.
TENNESSEE AT JACKSONVILLE
8:25 p.m. Today, NFL
“The game is really fun for me, and
it’s become more fun,” Whitehurst
said. “Earlier in my career, I was probably more stressed out about stuff. �Oh,
gosh, I’ve got to do this, do that.’ But I
try to have fun, because there’s times
in my career in college and in the pros
that it wasn’t as fun as it should be.
Now, I prepare myself. I go out there
and I try to have fun.”
Whitehurst went from his last start
against the Washington Redskins on
Oct. 19 to being inactive until Zach
Mettenberger sprained his right shoulder Dec. 7. Jake Locker was placed on
injured reserve Monday after separating his left, non-throwing shoulder. Whitehurst relishes the chance
to play whenever the opportunity
arises, even as the Titans’ season
has come apart.
He said the circumstances aren’t
great, and he knew he was coming
to Tennessee as a backup.
“There’s no substitute for playing,”
Whitehurst said. “You get to play,
you get to play in the NFL. It’s been
pretty awesome for me personally,
but there’s been a lot of anguish and
a lot of heartache. I’ve been a part of
some of these losses, and that’s been
tough. You definitely feel more a part
of the team and I hope to go out and
help us get a win.”
He has the trust of Titans coach Ken
Whisenhunt, who helped to bring
Whitehurst to Tennessee when hired
in January.
“I feel good about Charlie and
what he’s done. He’s played well for
us when he’s had to go in there,”
Whisenhunt said. “He made some
plays for us and made some good
throws. He started against Jacksonville the last time and played a pretty
good game, so I certainly feel comfortable with him.”
NOTES: The Titans were without RB
Dexter McCluster (knee), LT Taylor
Lewan (left ankle) and Mettenberger
(shoulder) in practice Tuesday. TE
Delanie Walker (knee), WR Kendall
Wright (right hand), LB Kamerion
Wimbley (left hamstring), LB Zaviar
Gooden (hamstring), RT Byron Stingily (ankle) all were limited.
Knighton makes Super Bowl prediction for Broncos
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. —
John Fox has no problem
with nose tackle Terrance
“Pot Roast” Knighton’s
Super Bowl bravado.
“I think that’s been the
goal all season,” the Denver Broncos coach said
when asked for his take
on Knighton’s Joe Namath-like guarantee over the
weekend that Denver will
win it all.
“I think guys said it way
back. The key — and they
understand this — is how
we get there,” Fox said.
The Broncos (11-3) can
secure a first-round bye
and keep the heat on New
England for the No. 1 seed
in the AFC bracket by
beating the Bengals (9-41) Monday night.
In the jubilation of the
Broncos’ 22-10 win at
San Diego on Sunday
that clinched their fourth
straight AFC West title,
Knighton declared the
Broncos will be the ones
holding the Lombardi Trophy no matter what road
they have to take to do it.
Even amid news that linebacker Danny Trevathan’s
season was over because
of a dislocated kneecap
and word that defensive
MVP Brandon Marshall
(foot) would be sidelined
until the playoffs, Knighton
isn’t backing down from
his promise.
“Some people call it a
guarantee, some people
call it whatever they want,
but anything less than a
Super Bowl victory is a
disappointing season,”
Knighton said. “So I stand
by what I said. I don’t care
who we play, where we
have to play, we won’t be
satisfied until we’re hoisting that trophy. If New
England wins out and we
win out, and we end up
meeting them, we’ll have to
go there and beat them.”
The last time the Broncos won in Foxborough,
Mass. — 17-7 on Sept. 24,
2006 — John Fox was still
in North Carolina, Peyton
Manning was still in Indianapolis and John Elway was
running an arena league
team, not the Broncos front
office.
Maybe the Broncos are
getting ahead of themselves by talking about a
return trip to Gillette Stadium, where Tom Brady and
the Patriots pummeled the
Broncos 43-21 on Nov. 2.
“I’ve felt that way the
whole year,” Knighton
said. “I felt that way when I
signed here last year. This
is one of those types of
organizations where it’s
Super Bowl or bust. We
have a high standard here.
It starts with Mr. Elway. He
wants championships and
so do we.”
Everybody talks Super
Bowl in the offseason,
K n i g h to n sa i d , “ a n d
around this time, teams
start weeding themselves
out. Obviously, we’ve
earned the right to talk
about it because we’ll be
in the playoffs.”

HERITAGE: Long distance
shots п¬Ѓnally begin to fall
FROM 1B
After Lenoir City’s
Amberlee Zeller knocked
down a jumper to open
the second quarter, Heritage reeled off an emphatic 18-2 run, morphing a
m o d e s t s eve n - p o i n t
lead into a riveting 35-12
advantage.
In that decisive stretch,
senior Leah Thomas
dropped in 10 of her
game-high 21 points,
helping complement a
Heritage defense that
forced the Lady Panthers
without a field goal for
the remainder of the first
half. Unlike the opening
quarter, the Lady Mountaineers’ high-percentage
shots near the rim began
to fall.
“That’s a lot easier, and
it’s better than shooting
those 3-pointers,” Howard said. “That’s what
I tell them. Those onefooters are much better
than the 17- or 19-footers.”
Heritage’s lead dipped
below 20 points just
twice in the second half
and climbed as high as
34 in the fourth quarter — thanks largely to
the late-game heroics of
Heritage’s Katie Wolfe
and Savannah Evans. In
the final eight minutes,
the baby blue-clad tandem accounted for all
the Lady Mountaineer
offense, pouring in 16 of
their 20 total points.
“We did a great job
moving the ball around,”
Howard said. “We had 14
assists for the game, and
that just to me is unselfishness and passing the
ball.”
The Lady Mountaineers head south to Hixson High School’s Christmas tournament, where
they’ll face host Hixson
at 6 p.m. Friday.
Should Heritage win its
opener, Howard’s squad
will face Chattanooga
Central Saturday.
HERITAGE 45, LC BOYS 32, OT:
Although Lenoir City’s
Clay Campbell managed
to send the game into
overtime with a last-
second layup, the Mountaineers (9-2, 2-2) quickly
rebounded and shut out
the Panthers (6-5, 0-4) in
the extra period.
Heritage’s Andrew Pryor and Brandon Davis
combined for nine of the
Mountaineers’ 13 overtime points, ensuring
that Bill Duncan’s squad
didn’t suffer a monumental district loss despite
the lack of offensive consistency.
Although the Mountaineers held Lenoir
City without a point in
the opening quarter, Heritage’s scoring prowess
quickly went incognito
as well.
The Mountaineers hit
just two field goals in
the first half and trailed
Lenoir City at the break,
9-6.
Duncan’s squad battled
back, reeling off a 7-1 run
to start the fourth quarter
en route to a 25-19 lead
with 5:27 remaining. But
some shaky Heritage
free throw shooting and
a slew of Dylan Brewster
3-pointers made the extra
four minutes a necessity.
Lenoir City’s Brewster
poured in a game-high
18 points — 15 of which
came from beyond the
arc.
Blake Ervin headlined
the Mountaineer score
sheet with 11 points, while
Davis chimed in with 10.

LADY VOLS: Turnovers keep
UT from running away
FROM 1B
But the Shockers later
cooled off considerably.
Wichita State missed 12
of their first 13 shots in
the second half as Tennessee built a 10-point
advantage.
Wichita State answered
with an 8-1 run to cut the
deficit to 41-38 after a flurry of turnovers and missed
free throws prevented the
Lady Vols from putting
the game away during the
Shockers’ drought. Tennessee committed 13 turnovers and shot 9 of 16 on
free throws in the second
half.

Memories of Raleigh
CHUCK BURTON | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TENNESSEE GUARD JOSH RICHARDSON (1) shoots against Mercer during the second half of the March 23 third-round NCAA tournament game in Raleigh.
Richardson back to ’14 NCAA tourney arena
BY GRANT RAMEY
UP NEXT
[email protected]
KNOXVILLE — Josh Richardson
has fond memories of PNC Arena.
The Raleigh, N.C., gym was host to
half of Tennessee’s four-game stay
in the NCAA tournament.
It’s where the Vols punched their
ticket to the Sweet 16. It’s where former coach Cuonzo Martin’s locker
room selfie with his team took Twitter by storm. It’s where Richardson
went off.
Behind his 19 points per tournament game, the 11th-seeded Vols beat
Iowa in overtime to survive the First
Four in Dayton, Ohio, before rolling to a 19-point win over UMass in
the round of 64 and a 20-point win
over upset-minded Mercer in the
round of 32.
Tennessee (4-3) is back in Raleigh
and back at PNC Arena for a 7 p.m.
tipoff tonight (TV: ESPN2) against
North Carolina State (8-2).
“I’m definitely going in there with a
lot of confidence, knowing how well
I played last time that I was in that
gym,” Richardson said Tuesday. “I
just hope that confidence can carry
over to the rest of our team.
“I think we had a good week of
practice after that last game. I think
if we come out and play well the first
half we should be good.”
That “last game” was an emotionally charged, come-from-behind 67-55
win over No. 15 Butler Sunday at
Thompson-Boling Arena. Using a
TENNESSEE AT N.C. STATE
WHEN: 7 p.m. tonight
ON TV: ESPN2
42-21 run in the second half, Tennessee turned a 12-point deficit into a
12-point win, sparked by a team-high
20 from Richardson.
“I think obviously his confidence
level is very high, and it should be,
he’s a good player and is playing
well,” first-year Tennessee coach
Donnie Tyndall said of Richardson.
“The one thing you don’t want to
happen, even though he basically
took that game over in the second
half the other night, you don’t want
him to think all of a sudden he has to
do that every play or every trip down
the floor of every game.”
Few of Richardson’s teammates
have memories of the tournament
run last March. Only Armani Moore
and Derek Reese returned this season after playing in the postseason
last year.
After neutral-site games in Annapolis, Md., and Orlando, Fla., Tyndall’s
pieced together roster of freshmen
and junior college transfers will make
its true road-game debut against the
Wolfpack.
“I think it will take a small learning curve the first half, just getting
comfortable and everything,” Richardson said. “I think after they get
rolling they’ll be alright.”
Junior guard Kevin Punter had 18
in the win over Butler, helping the
Vols jump that learning curve. Tennessee could certainly use those kind
of numbers again in Raleigh.
“I don’t know that Kevin’s ever
going to be a guy who averages 18 a
game but I certainly think he’s capable of being a double-figure scorer,”
Tyndall said. “He scored it well in
junior college. He’s a guy who lets
the game come to him, he doesn’t
take a lot of bad shots.
“I think he’s getting more and more
comfortable with the speed at this
level, how fast Division I basketball
is. He’s settled in.”
Tennessee is plenty familiar with
N.C. State’s leading scorer in guard
Trevor Lacey (16.9 ppg), an Alabama
transfer who averaged 12.5 points
per game in four meetings against
the Vols as a member of the Crimson Tide.
He and teammate Ralston Turner
both shoot over 40 percent from
beyond the 3-point line while big men
Lennard Freeman and Bee Jay Anya
average a combined 13.2 rebounds
per contest.
“They’re the most talented team
we’ve played with the possible exception of Kansas,” Tyndall said. “I don’t
know if they’re more talented as Kansas, but they’re every bit as talented
as Kansas.”

Chattanooga back on upset prowl
BY STEVE MEGARGEE
UP NEXT
AP Sports Writer
Chattanooga’s Jim Foster
has used connections he’s
developed during his Hall
of Fame coaching career to
produce the kind of home
schedule rarely seen from
a mid-major women’s basketball program.
His players are making the
most of the situation.
Three weeks after a 67-63
upset of a Tennessee team
that was ranked fourth
at the time, Chattanooga
(6-3) will try to beat another
top-10 opponent at home
Wednesday when it hosts
No. 7 Stanford (6-2).
The Mocs also are scheduled to host two-time
defending national champi-
CHATTANOOGA VS.
NO. 7 STANFORD
6 p.m. tonight
on Connecticut next season
and Notre Dame in 2016-17.
Mid-major programs usually must travel for the chance
to face national powers.
“It’s a great opportunity for our players to play
against great programs,”
Foster said. “I think that
only makes you better.”
Tennessee has shown a
willingness to schedule
road games with in-state
schools, as the Lady Vols
have played at Chattanooga
two of the last three seasons, visited Lipscomb on
Dec. 7 and opened the 2013-
14 season at Middle Tennessee.
Foster’s friendships in the
coaching fraternity helped
him bring other Final Four
contenders to Chattanooga.
Connecticut’s Geno Auriemma and Notre Dame’s
Muffet McGraw began their
coaching careers as assistants on Foster’s staffs at St.
Joseph’s. Foster and Stanford’s Tara VanDerveer are
long-time friends.
Foster, who is in his second season at Chattanooga,
didn’t have to make much
of a sales pitch to arrange
series with each of them.
“Geno and Muffet play
very ambitious schedules,
so they certainly weren’t an
issue,” Foster said.
“And Tara called me.”
Chattanooga played at
Notre Dame last month
and lost 88-53. Foster said
Chattanooga has road
games with Tennessee and
Stanford next season and at
Connecticut in 2016-17.
Stanford is playing Chattanooga as part of a two-game
road trip that also includes
a Saturday matchup with
Tennessee. Wednesday’s
game pits two Hall of Fame
coaches who know each
other very well.
“He actually called me
(Sunday and) invited our
whole staff over for dinner. I kind of declined just
because I just thought his
wife would be doing all
the work,” VanDerveer
quipped.

Playoff participants load
AP’s All-America team
The Associated Press
The College Football Playoff participants are well represented on The Associated
Press All-America team.
Florida State leads the
way with three first-team
All-Americans: tight end
Nick O’Leary, guard Tre
Jackson and kicker Roberto Aguayo, who is an AllAmerican for the second
straight season.
Oregon and Alabama each
have two, including a couple
of Heisman Trophy finalists.
Heisman winner Marcus
Mariota is the first Ducks
quarterback to be an AllAmerican. He is joined
by Ducks cornerback Ifo
Ekpre-Olomu.
The second-seeded Ducks
will play third-seeded Florida State on Jan. 1 at the Rose
Bowl.
Crimson Tide receiver
Amari Cooper, third in the
Heisman voting, made the
first team along with his
teammate, safety Landon
Collins.
The top-ranked Tide will
face fourth-seeded Ohio
State and All-America
defensive end Joey Bosa
on New Year’s Day in the
Sugar Bowl.
Florida State also had the
most players on the three
All-America teams with six.
Receiver Rashad Greene and
safety Jalen Ramsey made
the second team and defensive tackle Eddie Goldman
was a third-team selection.
Here are some things to
know about the 89th AP AllAmerica team.
SHAQ ATTACK: Washington’s
Shaq Thompson played
both offense and defense
this season and excelled
both ways, making him the
perfect guy to be the firstteam all-purpose player.
Thompson scored six
touchdowns, three by fumble return, two rushing and
one by interception return.
He has 456 yards rushing
and is averaging 7.5 per carry. He also has 71 tackles,
four fumble recoveries and
three forced fumbles.
The Huskies joined Florida State as the only teams
with three players on the
first team. Washington also
was represented by defensive tackle Danny Shelton
and linebacker Hau’oli
Kikaha, who leads the
nation in sacks with 18.

continues to improve,”
Elder said of Wolf. “You’re
still seeing mistakes, as you
would expect to see with
any college football player.
But you’re seeing him do a
better job as far as playing
with pad level, hand placement, driving his feet, all
those things in the blocking aspect. As far as releases, he’s getting better.
“He’s progressing in
every aspect of the game
and he’s a better player
today than he was when
he came in.”
Tennessee tight ends
accounted for three
touchdowns in 2013. Ellis
accounted for the only
score from a tight end this
season — the fake field goal
against Missouri.
Elder wasn’t caught off
guard by Ellis’ production.
“It wasn’t a surprise,” he
said. “I saw that from him
last year at fall camp. He
was someone that would
have played a significant
role for us a year ago had
he not gotten injured.
“So I wasn’t shocked to
see him perform well. I
expected him to come in
and play well and be part
of everything.”
Now with Marquez
North (shoulder) and
Jason Croom (knee) out
for the TaxSlayer Bowl
against Iowa, Tennessee’s
size at tight end could pick
up the slack with the Vols’
tall, physical receivers on
the shelf.
Bajakian said the game
plan doesn’t change,
though. Get the ball to the
playmakers — tight end or
otherwise.
“We’re always looking
for balance, run game and
pass game,” Bajakian said.
“When it comes to distributing to football, obviously it’s in the hands of the
quarterback and the playcaller to make sure the ball
is distributed amongst the
playmakers.
“ ... our guys, if you look at
the statistics from our season, it’s not like we’ve necessarily had one guy that’s
been the quote-unquote
go-to receiver. Our guys
have stepped up when
the opportunity has been
presented and made plays.
That’s the advantage to our
scheme and the freedom
we give our quarterback to
find the open receiver.”

After a match, one team was
comparing results, and the pair who
had sat East-West expected today’s
deal to be tied.
“Nothing to that one. They bid four
spades, down one. The contract was
unmakable.”
“Four spades was cold,” insisted
their teammate who had been South
at the other table.
“You’re kidding. Declarer had
three diamonds and a club to lose.”
Do you think South’s game was
cold?
West led the jack of hearts at both
tables, but at the second table, South
played low from dummy, and when
East signaled with the eight, South
played low from his hand!
LAST CLUB
Can you blame West for leading
another heart? South produced the
ace and took the ace of trumps and
the A-K of clubs. He led a trump to
dummy’s jack, discarded his last club
on the king of hearts and ruffed a
club. When the clubs split 3-3. South
drew trumps with the queen and
threw a diamond loser on the 13th
club.
Maybe four spades really is cold
— in the hands of an imaginative
declarer.

one heart, and the next player passes.
What do you say?
ANSWER: You may well have a
slam, but this is a questionable hand
for a jump-shift to two spades. You
may need bidding room to locate, or
rule out, a playable trump fit. Bid one
spade. If the hand were A K 10 9 6,
A 4, K 5 2, A 4 3, I would favor a
jump to two spades, followed by a
bid of notrump, but that plan isn’t
attractive with weak diamonds.

HOROSCOPE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for
Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2014:
You will want more downtime than you have had in recent
years. You might want to do some
research or perhaps some volunteer work. Although you are a
social sign by nature, you will center yourself when need be. I
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
в�…в�…в�…в�… What you expect to
hear and what you actually hear
might cause you to hit the pause
button. You’ll need to verify facts
and other types of information
that might come forward.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
в�…в�…в�…в�…в�… You might discover
that you don’t have the control
you desire. Understand the limitations of the moment. Once you
make a decision, you will know
how to proceed.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
в�…в�…в�…в�…в�… You could be worried about proceeding in a certain
way. Do what you feel is best, but
understand that you probably are
going to have to put in long hours
in order to achieve your goals.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
в�…в�…в�…в�…в�… Your creativity emerges when dealing with a schedule
change. Reach out to an expert to
learn how to be more effective in
acquiring knowledge.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
в�…в�…в�…в�… Others might not be
able to keep up with you; help
make them feel more comfortable.
Lighten up when dealing with an
associate who always seems to
have a problem.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
в�…в�…в�…в�… You need to understand
what is happening around you.
There could be a change of plans,
or a meeting might last longer
than you had anticipated.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
в�…в�…в�… You need to listen to your
intuition with a money matter. You
might not like what you’re hearing, but it would be wise to follow
through.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
в�…в�…в�…в�… You could push yourself
way beyond your limits and wonder
why. A get-together promises quite
a few possibilities, so you might
want to make an appearance.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
в�…в�…в�… You could seem closed
down to others right now. In truth,
you do have a lot on your mind.
Even if you explain what is going
on, someone still might feel as if
he or she is being ignored.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
����� You’ll have a lot to say
and an audience that will listen. A
meeting could be more significant
than you realize. You might need to
think through a decision involving
a new friendship. Brainstorm with
a close associate for ideas.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
в�…в�…в�…в�… Reach out to someone
at a distance. Use caution with
funds, as you could lose money
when you least expect to. It is possible that you will overspend or get
a gift where the quality is less than
what was promised. If you have a
doubt, don’t spend a dime.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
в�…в�…в�…в�… You seem to make a difference wherever you go. Check
out the facts, and make sure
you’re heading in the right direction. Reach out to someone at a
distance to clear your mind for a
while.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;

Ashanti �disgusted’
by fan’s tweets
NEW YORK — Ashanti says she was “disgusted” and “absolutely scared” when she
learned in
July 2013
that a fan
who had
been convicted of
stalking
her had
Ashanti
since been
tweeting
her X-rated
messages and posed for a
photo with her sister.
The Grammy-winning R&B singer testified Tuesday at Devar
Hurd’s trial. She says
she was at a birthday dinner for her mother when
another fan pointed out
via Twitter that Hurd
was the man in a photo
with her sister from a
2012 event.
She says she then realized that Hurd was
behind Twitter accounts
that had sent her explicit,
unwanted messages over
100 times in less than a
year.
Hurd was convicted
in 2009 of stalking and
served about two years
in jail. He says Ashanti
should have blocked the
accounts if they upset
her.
Green Day, Reed,
Starr into rock hall
NEW YORK — The
punk trio Green Day,
poet of the New York
underground Lou Reed
and “Lean on Me” singer
Bill Withers will lead a
new class of inductees
into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame next year.
The hall announced
Tuesday that it will also
welcome Joan Jett &
the Blackhearts, who
famously sang about
loving rock �n’ roll,
and make Ringo Starr
the fourth ex-Beatle
enshrined as an individual.
Besides Reed, the class
includes other posthumous inductees Paul
Butterfield and Stevie
Ray Vaughan.
The 30th annual induction ceremony will be
held at Cleveland, Ohio’s
Public Hall next April
18. Public tickets go on
sale Thursday.
Green Day made it in
the group’s first year of
eligibility.
