Union Street Park will have anew name.
LaGrange City Council approvedrenaming it Frank Cox-UnionStreet School Park after hearingfrom residents at Tuesday’s meet-ing.
Although some expressed disap-proval at earlier meetings of chang-ing the name, everyone came inagreement on the new name, hon-oring both the former city council-man and Union Street School.
“On behalf of the citizens ofTroup County, we again come toyou to ask you to name UnionStreet Park to Frank Cox-UnionStreet School Park,” said residentMontest Cameron.
Cox served as councilman forDistrict 2 and has been active in theBoy Scouts and Jake Sessions’ UpAll Night Thanksgiving and Christ-mas dinners, where he’s organizedvolunteers for the events.
“He’s been doing a lot of greatthings for the community,”Cameron said.
Lawmakerslook forwardto sessionBy Jennifer ShraderStaff writer
State Reps. Randy Nix and CarlVon Epps of LaGrange encouragedresidents to vote in the Nov. 2 elec-tion and outlined the issues goinginto the 2011 session of the Gener-al Assembly in January.
The two men,both unopposed inthe election, spoketo the LaGrange-Troup CountyChamber of Com-merce on Tuesdaymorning.
“There are a lot ofunknowns,” Nixsaid.
The state will beelecting an almostentirely new slate ofconstitutional offi-cers, including anew governor. Thir-ty members of theHouse and 13 mem-bers of the Senatewill be new.
The budget will continue to bethe state’s biggest issue, Nix said.Despite a slight uptick in revenues,Georgia is still in the hole. A $21billion budget in 2009 was amend-ed lower to $17 billion in 2010 and$1.8 billion of that was “one-time”money from federal stimulus fundsor reserves the state used.

The Callaway Foundationhas acquired the formerBroad Street Apartmentsand the adjoining GoodwillDonation Center on VernonStreet for a major upgradeand renovation project.
The foundation, whichpurchased the propertiesfor $400,000 in December,plans to renovate at least 16of the rundown apartmentbuilding’s 17 units. Theother lot will be for parkingand landscaping.
“It’s a whole renovation”of the block between Ver-non and Broad streets,foundation President SpeerBurdette said. “There’ll bea lot of landscaping andgrounds improvement.”
The apartment buildingwill have four two-bedroomunits on both the first andsecond floors, and eight one-bedroom units on the thirdfloor, with an option foranother unit in the base-ment. Renovations areexpected to start in the firstquarter of 2011 and be com-pleted by late spring of 2012.
Burdette said the founda-tion won’t keep the buildingas an investment, nor willthe apartments be availableto the general public. Anannouncement will be forth-coming on the ultimate useof the project, he said.
When the foundationbought the foreclosed prop-erties from BB&T, it didn’thave a particular plan inmind, but “we thought that
was somewhat of a land-mark building on a verykey corner of town and wewanted to see if it madesense to consider how to
enhance the whole area,”Burdette said.
Only after the purchasedid the foundation learn thatthe apartments were built in
1936 by the Ida Cason Call-away Foundation, a spinoffof the Fuller E. CallawayFoundation, which did theplans for the building.
The building had variousowners before the foreclo-sure, the latest being Den-nis Burke.
The upgrade and renova-tion “is about community,about enhancing an areathat was looking rundownin a very conspicuous loca-tion on perhaps one of theprettiest streets in LaGrange– Broad Street,” Burdettesaid. “You might call it oneof our signature streets.”

Visitor Ray Stewart, left, of LaGrange told Grand Hotel owners Mary Ann and Mark Hodnett andEmily Earles that the reopening of the building gets ‘the heart of the town beating again.’
‘Heart of town beating again’
Grand Hotel ready to reopenBy Jennifer ShraderStaff writer
When the Grand Hotel closedin Hogansville in 2003, it meantmore than the end of one of thecity’s largest businesses.
The music that wafted throughdowntown from speakers at thehistoric building went away. Thetea room closed. And somethingmore, something hard to quan-tify, was lost.
“For six years, (the closing)ripped the guts out of down-town,” Mark Hodnett said.
He and his wife, Mary Ann,and their partners, Jody andEmily Earles, now are breathinglife back into the building, whichwill open in time for this week-end’s Hummingbird Festival.
They have big plans.The building at 303 E. Main St.
first will reopen Friday as a bedand breakfast, with four suites, ahandicapped-accessible room onthe ground floor and five singlerooms in the 10,000-square-footbuilding. It will be open Thurs-day, Friday and Saturday nights.
A cafe soon will open in thefront of the building, servingsoup, salads and pastries. ByJanuary, a full bar will open,along with a full cafeteria in theback. Long-term plans include aday spa and mystery dinner the-ater. A beauty salon, Kuttin Upon Mane, already is open.
The hotel wants to attractsmall conferences and othermeetings, including classreunions and Christmas parties.
“There’s so much that can bedone here,” Mary Ann Hodnettsaid.
The Grand Hotel will leaveweddings to the Victoria Bellespecial events center, also inHogansville, but the new ownerssee the hotel hosting overnightguests or small rehearsal din-ners. Mark Hodnett envisionscarriage rides back and forthfrom the two businesses, just likewhat likely could be seen at thehotel’s opening before the turnof the 20th century.
According to historicalrecords, the hotel was built in thelate 1800s and may have hadseveral incarnations beforebeing named the Grand Hotel.Its original style – seen now inthe architecture and decor – wasVictorian. It was used as bar-racks for traveling World War IIsoldiers, a boarding house and aresidence. Its last owner, JohnHardy Jones, had reopened thehotel in 1998 after a four-yearrenovation project.
The Hodnetts, who live in theOak Grove community near PineMountain, see the hotel as “whatwe want to do to finish our livesout,” said Mark Hodnett. Bothhave business experience: Shewas involved with Houston’srestaurant in Atlanta. He was acommercial landscape gardenerand has made the garden behindthe Grand Hotel building his per-sonal project.
“Hogansville is going to haveits own botanical garden,” hepromised.
Emily and Jody Earles arefrom Valley, Ala., and Emily Ear-les owns and operates SweetGeorgia Brown antiques shop inWest Point. The couple movedaway for 40 years and ran busi-
nesses in Tuscaloosa, Ala.,before coming back home.
“They bring the stability,”Mark Hodnett said jokingly.
All four understand the GrandHotel’s history and importance inHogansville and are glad to bepart of helping revitalize the build-ing and the town. They plan tohire locally for their new ventures.
“Everything we need and allthe people we need is already inthe community,” Hodnett said.
The couples are rushing toopen the building in time for thisweekend’s Hummingbird Festi-val and plan to serve food to fes-tival guests this weekend. A for-mal grand opening will be inNovember.
“I can’t wait to spend theweekend here,” said Ray Stew-art, a LaGrange resident whofrequents Hogansville andstopped by last week to meet theowners and see the progress.
“I just knew one day it wouldhappen,” Stewart said of thereopening. “It’s got the heart ofthe town beating again.”

The groups wanting torename the park came toa compromise after dis-agreeing at a previouscouncil meeting overwhich name to give thepark.
“We all met together andcame up with the idea ofputting both names onthere,” said residentGwendolyn Redwine.
A lot on Union Streetwas purchased in 1903 for$160 to set up UnionStreet School. The build-ing was finished October1903 and ready for studentuse, making it one of theearliest schools for blacksin LaGrange.
Redwine also plans tocome back to council forwork on an African Amer-ican heritage tourism plan,hitting some of the origi-nal historical sites alongwith information on peo-ple important to the city’shistory.
“A lot of people don’tknow Revis Street isnamed after Cicero Revis,one of our first undertak-ers,” she said.
For now, Frank Cox-Union Street School Parkis the main project. Offi-cials are planning a plaquefor the park as well as sig-nage in the future. A BoyScout aims to clean up thepark, as well as adding apicnic table and barbecuegrill as his Eagle Scoutproject.
Council would like tosee the number of grillsand tables doubled, andsome residents have pro-vided funds to make thatpossible.
Cameron is looking tocreate a dedication for thepark on Thanksgivingnight, having Cox at theevent.
“He’s been involved inthe community for a longtime, even when there wasa school over on UnionStreet,” Cameron said.

Epps said signs of eco-nomic recovery are “slowin coming” since the firstslide began three yearsago.
“We need to recognizewho was driving the bus,”said Epps, a Democrat.“People need to comeforth in the polls. Our kidsare in school longerbecause of ‘austerity cuts’in the budget. Taxes areup and will continue to goup. Unemployment isaround 10 percent.”
Epps said that eventhough he is unopposed,he’s still motivated to seeGeorgia do better for itschildren.
Nix said between 55 per-cent and 60 percent of thestate budget is devoted toeducation with the next 25percent of state funds usedfor public safety, healthand welfare programs andcorrections.
“It’s a question of wheredo you cut,” he said. “A lotof those programs in thatlast 15 percent have beendiscontinued.”
The state Department ofNatural Resources has hadits budget cut up to 50 per-cent, Nix said.

Man’s plan to date bestfriend angers woman
ATLANTA (AP) – Whilenorth-Georgia RepublicanNathan Deal was in Con-gress, he and a top aidetried to persuade HallCounty officials to takeover maintenance of a pri-vate road that runs pastDeal’s auto salvage yardand ends at another prop-erty Deal was seeking torezone.
According to a report byWAGA-TV, Deal’s then-chiefof staff, Chris Riley, sent e-mails to county officials onhis House of Representa-tives e-mail account, inquir-ing about the effort. Houseethics rules prohibit usinggovernment resources forprivate gain.
The station also saidDeal appeared in person
before county officials tostart the process.
The road request wasfollowed by a rezoningrequest by Deal’s auto sal-vage business to turn the137 acres of property atthe end of the road into alandfill. The propertyended up being rezoned.
Deal’s lawyer RandyEvans said the contact didnot violate House ethicsrules because Riley did notspecifically ask for any-thing and was gatheringinformation on behalf of aconstituent.
“The important part is,did you ask for action? Didyou ask for something?And the answer to that is,it didn’t happen here,”Evans said.

Do you have a favoritecookbook? I like almosteverything from Bonappetit or James Beard.
What is your comfortfood that reminds you ofhome?Mymother’s chick-en broccoli brings backlots of good memories.Shemade it for a luncheonthe day we were married.
What is your favoritecooking tool? My grand-mother’s mini biscuit cut-ter – I make small cookiesand shortcakes with it.
What was your biggest
disaster in the kitchen?The summer after our firstyear of marriage, we livedin a basement apartmentin Hoisington, Kan.ºº,Dan’s hometown. I tried tobake a strawberry cakefrom a recipe designed fora very large pan in tworound cake pans. Afterabout 15 minutes, we sawstrawberry goo slidingthrough the oven door –the cake batter had over-flowed and was every-where.
What is your favoritememory of cooking orbeing in the kitchen?Making Christmas cookiesand Easter bunny cakeswith my girls.
What is your “old faith-ful” recipe that you relyon time after time? A

Dear Annie: My fatherwalked out on our family24 years ago in order tobe with another woman. Itried to have a relation-ship with him, and for acouple of years, we livedacross the street fromeach other and thingsweren't too bad.Dad and his wife
owned myhouse. Iwas livingwith a copat the timeand dis-c o v e r e dthat mystepmoth-er washaving anaffair withhim. Ihave sincemoved onwith mylife andhave hadno contactwith eitherof them intwo years.I marrieda wonder-ful manand amv e r yh a p p yexcept forone thing:I would
like my daughter to knowher grandfather.
However, I refuse tohave any contact with mystepmother. She is a mas-ter manipulator and hasto have her nose in every-one's business.My father is not in good
health, and I may nothave much longer towork on this. How do Imake my dad a part ofour lives without involv-ing his wife? – Still Out inthe Cold
Dear Still: Pleaseunderstand that yourfather may not be recep-tive to a reconciliation.And no matter how cul-pable his wife may be increating this estrange-ment, Dad has made noeffort to re-establish con-tact. If you are willing toaccept the downside, wesuggest you contact himdirectly, bypassing yourstepmother. Say you stillcare about him and wouldlike his grandchild to getto know him. We hope heis interested.
Dear Annie: My wifedoesn't clean. When shewas young, her parentstold her that if she want-ed an allowance, she'dhave to do chores to earnit. She opted to go with-out the money. Today,while she's wonderfullyfrugal, she won't lift a fin-ger around the house.Iwas raised to value clean-liness, so I constantly findmyself doing the laundry,dishes, vacuuming and soon.Whenever I see an arti-
cle about husbands whodon't help around thehouse, I want to scream.How can I convince mywife that it's important tokeep a clean house andlend a hand? – House-work Hubby
Dear Hubby: Spouseshave an obligation to con-tribute to the upkeep ofthe home. Often, onespouse does the majorityof the housework. If youresent it, however, showyour wife how to use thewasher, dryer, dishwash-er, vacuum and any otherappliance. She needs tobe taught these thingsand held responsible forher own mess. Weassume she has a full-time job outside thehome. If so, anotheroption, if she can affordit, is to hire a housekeep-er. She might prefer it.
Dear Annie: My moth-er could probably write aletter like the one from"Sad Sandie." She saidher daughter is cold anddistant and becomespunitive if Mom says any-thing negative about thegrandchildren's conduct.For decades, I tried to
please my mother. I tookher on trips, gave herthoughtful gifts, improved
her home safety, helpedher after she fell andbroke her hip, and lookedinto assisted living for herand my dad. No matter
what I did, vitriol and crit-icism were my thanks. Ifinally came to terms withMom's inability to showlove and kindness, and I
have stopped trying. I amrespectful and do myduty, but the well isempty. Perhaps the cold-ness that "Sad Sandie"
feels from her daughter isjust acceptance. – Peace-ful Daughter

Government of Chile
Florencio Avalos accepts a hug from Chilean President Sebastian Pinera aftergreeting his wife and 7-year-old son. Avalos was the first of the 33 trappedminers to emerge early this morning.
Cheers, rejoicingas miners emergeSAN JOSEMINE, Chile
(AP) – The miners em-erged like clockwork, jubi-lantly embracing wives,children and rescuers andlooking remarkably com-posed today after lan-guishing for 69 days in thedepths of a mine that eas-ily could have been theirtomb.The anxiety that had
accompanied the finaldays of preparation melt-ed away at 12:11 a.m.when the stoutest of the 33miners, Florencio Avalos,emerged from themissile-like rescue capsule smilingbroadly after his half-milejourney to the surface.In a din of cheers, he
hugged his sobbing 7-year-old son and wife andthen President SebastianPinera, who has beendeeply involved in aneffort that had become amatter of national pride.The most ebullient of
the bunch came out sec-ond, an hour later.
“I think I had extraordi-nary luck. I was with Godand with the devil. And Ireached out for God,” saidMario Sepulveda as heawaited the air force heli-copter ride to a nearbyhospital where all the min-ers were to spend 48hours under observation.The miners have sur-
vived more time trappedunderground than anyoneon record, and the worldwas captivated by theirendurance and unity asofficials carefully plannedtheir rescue.Health Minister Jaime
Manalich told a news con-ference after eight minerswere rescued that all ofthemwere in good health,and none has needed anyspecial medication, noteven the diabetic amongthem.Chile exploded in joy and
relief at the first, break-through rescue just aftermidnight Tuesday in thecoastal Atacama desert.
In the capital, Santiago,a cacophony of motorists’horns sounded. In thenearby regional capital ofCopiapo, fromwhich 24 ofthe miners hail, the mayorcanceled school so parentsand children could “watchthe rescue in the warmthof the home.”All-news channels from
North America to Europeand the Middle East car-ried live coverage. PopeBenedict XVI said that he“continues with hope toentrust to God’s good-ness” the fate of the men.Iran’s state English-lan-guage Press TV followedevents live until PresidentMahmoud Ahmadinejadtouched down in Lebanonon his first state visit there.The methodical pace at
which the miners weredelivered from the moun-tain matched the rescueteam’s prediction that allwould be free after about36 hours, barring majorglitches.
Ruling: End ‘don’t ask’WASHINGTON (AP) – A federal
judge’s ruling that the military must stopits “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy comesamid conflicting concerns of gays whothink the government is moving tooslowly to let them serve openly and Pen-tagon officials who believe that movingtoo quickly might disrupt a militaryengaged in war.Gay-rights groups have said they are
disappointed that legislation to overridethe ban is likely to languish in Congressuntil next year, when Democrats couldhave fewer seats and less power to over-ride Republican objections.Defense Secretary Robert Gates and
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman MikeMullen, the military’s top uniformed offi-cer, have supported lifting the ban ongays serving openly. But Gates andMullen also have warned that they wouldprefer to move slowly.
Foreclosures probedWASHINGTON (AP) – Up to 40 state
attorneys general are preparing today tolaunch a joint investigation into themort-gage industry over the foreclosure-doc-ument mess.If the states have their way, mortgage
companies will have to revamp the waythey handle foreclosures, pay penaltiesfor violations and expand help to home-owners on the verge of foreclosure.The top law enforcement officials of
states around the country are alreadyweighing the outlines of a potential set-tlement with the industry, said Iowa
Attorney General Tom Miller, who willlead the investigation.Miller said one idea being discussed is
to create an independent monitor toreview whether banks have fixed theirproblems.
Elsewhere� Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is

She said: “I’ve enjoyed your class onthe Sacraments, but I have a more burn-ing question that I hope you can help mewith.”I replied: “I’ll try. What’s your question
related to?”She responded: “I want to understand,
better know who God is.”I replied: “God “is – whatever there ‘is’
is God.”“Cute,” she replied. “However, Tom,
I’m not looking for cute, I’m searchingfor truth.”I’ve been asked many times to explain
God, to clarify the concept of God. Manyhave challenged me to put the conceptof God into an understandable package,embraceable for themselves as realityand truth. I’ve shared these thoughtsbefore, a process that takes a “first threesteps.”But understand this: belief is faith, faith
is born of education and acceptance, and
acceptance is embracing what oft can’tbe proven or seen. Now relax andbreathe deeply, journey with me – closeyour eyes for we don’t see God, ratherwe perceive the One in all that surroundsus, all that is within us, in all the “is.”The first step of our journey is to elim-
inate human terms such as father, king,ruler, punisher and judge. These areterms used to describe God in words weascribe to ourselves, but this fails forGod. For describing the unseen is impos-sible, describing the One in human termsimplies God is like us – the One is not,and that in itself is a profoundly liberat-
ing thought.The second step is to eliminate human
necessity such as reward and punish-ment, status and position, power andwealth, admiration and adoration. Theseare human necessities we’ve affixed toGod from the foundation of religion. Edu-cation and the reality of history revealsreligions were given birth by humannecessity for social control, consolida-tion of wealth and political power. Godis not like us. The One requires no sac-rifice, no glory, no admiration or adora-tion. Aside from love, what possibly canwe (the created) give to the One (the Cre-ator) who “is” everything?The third step in our journey begins
with an educated quest to understand themost powerful of human emotions - love.For it’s in the discovery of love’s essen-tial meaning that we eliminate thehuman concepts of Hell, damnation,rejection and Jihad. To understand the
One is to understand that God does notreject, condemn, hate or seek death andpunishment, only humans do. The Oneis not human. We hardly know ourselves– we know almost nothing outside of us,maybe when we know ourselves we’llbegin to know God.It takes these “first three steps” to
begin to understand God. Know this: thejourney will be an endless quest. Tounderstand the incomprehensible mean-ing of God will take a life time – on bothsides of the “now” and the “then.” Thereare these essential truths: God is One –what “is” is because it comes from andis sustained by God, the One requiresnothing for nothing is missing in the One.What saves “humanity from humanity”will be our acknowledgement of theindispensable value of love – we will dis-cover that when we fully use the great-est “power” God has given us – intelli-gence.

Dear Editor:When Joe Miller, candi-
date for U.S. Senate fromAlaska, was asked if hethought that Sarah Palinhad the qualifications to bepresident of the UnitedStates, he gave a very qual-ified answer. “Yes, she isconstitutionally qualified.”Presidential hopeful
Palin was not happy withhis reply. She felt that polit-ical support should bereciprocal. The questionarises, “Would Sarah Palinbe a capable leader of thefree world?” She is physically attrac-
tive, photogenic-cute. Shecomes up with some cleverquotes – sometimes not.She is very red-white-and-blue, and her fervor isalmost palpable. She seemsto rouse the troops. Palindid gain a reputation forcleaning up Alaska politics.As mayor, Palin greatly
improved the lot of herconstituents She did muchto put Wasilla on the map(population 6,000) bybuilding a sports complexbut increasing its publicdebt from $1 million to $25million ($1.3 million wasspent on eminent domainissues because of no cleartitle). As governor, she stat-ed that Alaska must notrely on federal funding. In 2008 Alaska received
$750 million in earmarks.One plank in her campaignfor governor was a “Buildthe Bridge” plank. Whenthe Gravina Bridge waspublicly criticized for beingthe bridge to nowhere(population 50), she with-drew her support but tookthe $442 million in trans-portation funds.After supporting the win-
ning candidate for gover-nor in 2003, she acceptedan appointment to theAlaska Oil and Conserva-
tion Committee.Admittedly she knew
nothing about oil but want-ed to learn. And learn shedid, becoming a strongspokesperson for Alaskanoil and gas naturalresources including theproposal to drill in the Arc-tic National WildlifeRefuge – still a hot topicamong environmentalists. As governor, she signed
a bill to authorize Tran-scanada Pipeline – alsoanother environmentalissue. When commentingon the BP oil disaster, shestated, “I repeat the sloganof drill here, drill there.”She said, “I want our coun-try to trust the oil industry.”In 2009 when Gov. Palin
tendered her resignation,she stated that she was “nolonger able to do the jobshe was elected to dobecause of spending aninsane amount of time andmoney to address frivolousethics complaints againsther.” She was possiblyreferring to the charge thatshe had used her clout totry to have a law enforce-ment officer dismissedbecause of a personalissue.On election night Gov.
Palin had a political speech-writer prepare a concessionspeech for her but becameconvinced it was inappro-priate. Because of her expo-sure in the 2008 campaign,she has been in greatdemand charging as muchas $100,000 for an appear-ance and selling more thana million copies of herbook.She is a fascinating per-
son, but does she have theexperience and judgmentto be president of the Unit-ed States?Edna FosterSilverette Circle,

Good lawsvs. bad lawsDear Editor:In 2009, in the city of
Dallas, Texas, an ordi-nance was passed for lawenforcement to impoundcars with no proof of insur-ance. The automobiles willbe towed immediatelyupon citation. To retrievethe car after beingimpounded, owner mustproduce proof of insur-ance.This has made it easy
and sensible for the city ofDallas to remove unin-sured cars and roguemotorists from the roads.Not only must proof of
insurance be provided torelease the vehicle, ownermust pay for the cost of thetow, a $350 fine and ischarged $20 for every daythe car is kept in theimpound lot.I would suggest other
cities across the nation tofollow what Dallas isdoing. Not only is it gettinguninsured drivers off theroad, but is exposing theillegal aliens.This is a good law.A good manager will
spend most of his time onfollowup, thus never issu-ing instructions, rules, reg-ulations and procedures
that are unrealistic to over-see. Our state passed atext-messaging law recent-ly in this nonsensical cate-gory, resulting in no morethan revenue collecting orfunds for our legal system,and green fees for the painand suffering lawyers.These unrealistic
enforcement types of lawscost the lawful citizen dear-ly.Tom McLaughlinAshling Drive,

Prioritiesare wrongDear Editor:What kind of country do
we live in that sends a manto jail for being cruel to adog, yet we kill 40 millionbabies a year and that isOK?Do you ever think of all
the teachers, firemen,policemen, nurses, doctors,research scientists, pilots,fishermen and farmers wekill every year? The listcould go on and on.We live in the best coun-
try in the world. One won-ders just how long our GodAlmighty will continue tohave patience with us.Jeanne B. ThomasCamellia Drive,

Is Palin qualified to be president?
Ten months ago, whenLiu Xiaobo was sentencedto 11 years for “incitingsubversion of statepower,” the worldresponse was muted.There were condemna-tions of this unashamedassault on free expressionand individual freedom,but they were mild andoddly off-key.The European Union,
for example, issued astatement expressing its“deep concern” at the “dis-proportionate sentence” –as if the problem were thelength of the prison termrather than the fact ofcriminally sentencing ahuman rights advocate atall for the “crime” of advo-cating pluralistic govern-ment and individual free-dom.The U.S. Department of
State described the sen-tence as “uncharacteristicof a great country” – anodd choice of words. TheState Departmentspokesman may havebeen suggesting that thisis not the way “great coun-tries” behave, in whichcase, note the obsequiouseffort to praise China. Orworse, it may have been apartial excuse for the Chi-nese bully boys, implyingthat this prison sentencewas “uncharacteristic” ofChina.But of course, the sen-
tence was utterly charac-teristic of communistChina, as were theOrwellian condemnationsof Liu by the People’sDaily, which “reported”that Liu was “spreadingrumors and defaming …the government … aimedat subversion of the stateand overthrowing thesocialist system in recentyears.”And so, when the Nobel
Committee awarded Liuthe Peace Prize this week,it was as if a jolt of caf-feine had been adminis-tered to the lazy con-science of the world. Pres-ident Obama, last year’sspectacularly unworthyrecipient of the prize, wasroused from his self-admi-ration long enough to callupon China to release the“eloquent and coura-geous” Mr. Liu. Obamapraised China’s “dramaticprogress in economicreform and improving thelives of its people, liftinghundreds of millions outof poverty.” But, he added,“this award reminds usthat political reform hasnot kept pace, and that thebasic human rights ofevery man, woman andchild must be respected.”“U.S. officials” the AP
explained, “try to strike abalance with China, press-ing it on economic andhuman rights issues, whiletrying to win crucial Chi-nese support on the Iran-ian and North Koreannuclear standoffs, climatechange and other difficultissues.” Such is the admin-istration spin in any case.In fact, while this admin-istration has studiouslyavoided telling the truthabout China’s humanrights record, China hasbeen uncooperative on allof the issues listed, whileat the same time manipu-lating its currency to thedetriment of the U.S.economy.
It’s not clear that theObama administration hasits head screwed onstraight when it comes tohuman rights questions.Remember that the StateDepartment, in its reportto the United Nations onthe U.S. human rightsrecord, cited the Arizonaimmigration law as anexample of our failure toset a good example to theworld.Yes, China has made
great strides in economicdevelopment (entirely bypermitting free markets tofunction, Obama mighthave added), but theNobel Peace Prizereminds us that the way anation treats its own citi-zens is usually a good pre-dictor of the way it willbehave internationally.The Obama administra-tion’s soft approach hasdone nothing to diminishChina’s crucial support forthe most dangerous andunstable regimes in theworld.Chinese assistance
against North Korea andIran has proved illusory.Besides, the pathetic real-ity is that the Obamaadministration has noplans to be tough withIran or North Korea, soChinese cooperation islargely irrelevant. But inany case, the larger goalof U.S. foreign policyshould always be to sup-port and extend freedom.It is obviously in the inter-ests of 1.3 billion Chinesethat Liu Xiaobo and hisCharter 08 organizationsucceed. (It is modeled onthe Czech Charter 77 thatsuccessfully underminedthe communist govern-ment there.)When Liu was informed
of the prize, he said, “Thisis for the lost souls of June4,” referring to the hun-dreds mowed down by theChinese government inTiananmen Square in1989.But it is ultimately in the
interests of the UnitedStates that Liu succeed aswell. If China were tothrow off its oppressiveregime, Chinese supportfor the criminal regimes inTehran and Pyongyang,along with other crimesaround the world, wouldalmost certainly come toan end. The Nobel Com-mittee has just sped thatmost desirable day.As for last year’s Nobel
laureate, he is busy pro-tecting us from the state ofArizona.

Fist, noseand freedomof speechThe U.S. Supreme Court
is trying to decide, not forthe first or the last time,where free speech crossesthe line into harassment.But Snyder v. Phelps isn’tquite like any other free-speech case. This one hasmore emotional impact,and potentially more legalimpact as well, than anyother in recent memory.This case involves the
2006 funeral of 20-year-oldMarine Lance Cpl.Matthew Snyder, who diedserving his country, andthat Kansas roach motel ofa “church” that claims U.S.war casualties are God’spunishment for society’stolerance of homosexual-ity. The “Thank God forDead Soldiers” and “GodHates Fags” bunch.The First Amendment
doesn’t protect just inof-fensive forms of expres-sion; indeed, if that werethe case, what would bethe point? Even the mostvile, provocative and hate-ful sentiments enjoy con-stitutional protection, onthe principle that a trulyfree society does not pun-ish ideas.Yet there’s another prin-
ciple at work here as well –one the Constitution’sauthors didn’t articulatequite this way, but thatevery American under-stands: The rights of yourfist stop at the tip of mynose.The court is expected to
rule, sometime in the nextnine months or so, whereon the legal landscape thefist and the nose in thiscase are rightly to befound.The First Amendment
doesn’t give someone theright to call you repeated-ly on the telephone andmake terroristic threats, orto pound on your door forhours at a time, or to standin a residential neighbor-hood in the middle of thenight and blast out politi-cal screeds over a bull-horn. It isn’t an idea oropinion that is at issue insuch cases, but the behav-ior of those delivering it. The strength and, para-
doxically, even the beautyof the Constitution is thatit does not discriminateagainst malignant idiots.But it does not shield themfrom the consequences ofeverything they do, norshould it.

ATLANTA (AP) – Withjust three weeks left untilthe general election, thebruising race for governorin Georgia turned evenuglier during a Tuesdaydebate when the twomajor party candidatesaccused each other oflying.Democrat Roy Barnes
and Republican NathanDeal launched a scathingback-and-forth overethics, attack ads andlegal fees.Barnes began the verbal
tussle, asking Deal whyhis campaign has spentsome $80,000 on legal feesdespite a congressionalethics probe which con-cluded when he left Con-gress in March.“You’ve been a whole
stimulus program forlawyers,” Barnes said.Deal replied that he’s
had to defend himselfagainst unfounded ethicscharges and accusedBarnes of filling the air-waves with assaults.“I’m tired of the fact that
you only want to attacksomebody rather than talkabout issues that areimportant to the people ofGeorgia,” Deal said.Barnes fired back that
Deal accusing him of
attack ads “is like a pos-sum telling a skunk itsbreath stinks.”Barnes assailed the
arrangement Deal’s autosalvage business had withthe state – which drew acongressional ethicsprobe.“If it was so bad it was
in place the entire timeyou were governor ofGeorgia, why didn’t youput an end to it?” Dealasked.“You hid it so well we
didn’t know about it,”Barnes replied.The extended fireworks
drew a rebuke from Liber-tarian John Monds.“What you’ve seen
tonight is bickering andarguing,” Monds said, say-ing that voting for the
same candidates will getthe same results.The candidates were
allowed to question eachother and Barnes wentfirst asking Deal, who iscounting on strong sup-port from rural parts of thestate, if he would havevoted to change the flag.As governor, Barnespushed successfully toshrink the Confederatebattle emblem on the flag,a move some say helpedcost him re-election to asecond term.“I saw where that got
you Roy,” Deal quipped. “Ithink that the flag that wehave in the state of Geor-gia is a fair compromise. Iprobably would havevoted tomove in the direc-tion our state has gone.”
The candidates werethen asked their thoughtson Confederate HistoryMonth.“I think it’s appropriate
to have some recognition.I don’t think it has to be awhole month,” Barnessaid, adding “The war isover.”Deal was more support-
ive noting that Black His-tory Month is celebrated.“I think it is important
for our children to under-stand their diverse her-itage,” he said.Barnes said he would
sign a bill allowing localgovernments to allowSunday alcohol sales. Dealalso said he supports localcontrol but declined to saywhether he would sign aSunday alcohol bill.

It’s always a special time in astudent’s life.The senior year is a time ofreflection, ofgood-byes, oftears and ofsmiles.It is a briefmoment in timethat will alwaysbe treasured.For one La-Grange Highstudent, softballplayer TatumAldridge, her finalyear of high school is especiallymeaningful.A year ago in October,Aldridge did not knowwhat herfuture held.What she did know was thatshe had a brain tumor, and thatshe was going to have to un-dergo surgery to have it re-moved.
Fortunately, this story has ahappy ending.The surgery went well, thetumor was not cancerous, andwhen the LaGrange softballteam hosts Franklin Countytoday in the first round of thestate tournament, Aldridge willbe in her usual spot as the start-ing third baseman.“I’m so glad to be here and tobe able to play softball and bein this position,” Aldridge saidTuesday on the eve of the statetournament.Her father, Matt Aldridge, willbe there as always, cheering forhis daughter.Seeing his daughter back onthe field doing what she loves,“means the world,” he said.“When that happens, you al-ways wonder, but she’s comethrough,” Matt Aldridge said.“She’s back to normal and

their teammates“Oh yeah,” Thompson says with
a laugh. “They don’t talk down tome or anything but they try to pokeat you and say that I have it easy be-cause I’m the kicker.”“They always kid us about howwe don’t do anything at practice,”
Dremann said. “I just tell them thatwe are just as tired. We work onkicks the whole time we are atpractice. So, we just take it in stride

We got a lot of stuffaccomplished over lastweek and the guys areready to move forwardthis week and face thechallenge at hand.”Flowers said that histeam is ready to get backon the field and shake offthe loss.“The break came at agood time for us, espe-cially after losing the waythat we lost,” he said.“Having that time to comeback and recuperate hashelped us out a lot thisweek preparing for Cen-

tral Carrollton.”The week of rest alsoallowed time for theTigers to recover from allthe bumps, bruises andnagging injuries that theplayers may have sus-tained so far during theseason.“It gives us a little bit oftime to heal any injuriesthat we might have had,”Flowers said. “The guyshave been able to rest upthough and we have beenable to have some goodpractices this week.”One of those injuries

We definitelycontrol our own destiny.”
doing better than ever.”Aldridge said she hashad headaches since shewas a child, so late lastsoftball season when shewas struck with a severeheadache, she wasn’toverly concerned.“I just thought it wasmigraines and I tookmed-icine,” she said. “And thenone morning, I kept wak-ing up and throwing up. Itold my mom, and shethought it might be theflu. So she said, let’s go tothe emergency room.“And then they couldn’tfind any symptoms for theflu, so they gave me a CatScan and found (thetumor) and sent me toColumbus.”In addition to the sup-port she received fromher family, including hermother, Tracy Aldridge,her father Matt, herbrother Carson and hersister Malone, she saidher softball family wasthere for her as well.“I had a lot of support,”she said. “The whole soft-ball team came to seeme.”Aldridge had the sur-gery at Emory Children’sHealthcare hospital, and itwent well.The tumor was re-moved, and it was benign.Said Matt Aldridge: “Ifthere was ever a goodkind of tumor, I promiseyou she had it.”After the surgery camethe hard part, the rehab.It was awhile beforeAldridge was able to gether rehab going strongbecause of the after ef-fects of the surgery.“The whole right side ofmy body was not workingright,” she said. “So Icouldn’t do anything.”For an athlete whoshortly before was at herphysical peak, it was atough time.
“I went to the gym, butthe first couple of times, Icouldn’t really do any-thing,” she said. “I justhad to build myself backup.“When I was in the hos-pital, all I wanted to dowas everything I could do.I was really upset that Icouldn’t do anything. Ijust had to wait.”Her father had no doubtshe would make it all theway back.“She’s a tough girl,” hesaid.Eventually, any linger-ing effects from the sur-gery were gone, andAldridge was going at ithard to get ready for hersenior season.The work paid off, andwhen the Lady Grangersopened their season onAug. 13, Aldridge was atthird base, and she had ahit and an RBI in a 10-0win over Bowdon.Aldridge has been amainstay in the lineup allseason, and she’s a keyreason the Lady Grangerswent 20-6 and won theRegion 6-AAA champi-onship.Seeing Aldridge on thefield and healthy means alot, assistant coach Lind-sey Binion said.“She’s been through alot,” Binion said. “I thinkeverybody out here wantsthat for her. All these girls,
they want it for the sen-iors, especially her.”On Oct. 28, Aldridge,along with fellow seniorsTerryuana Godwin andEmilee Manning, washonored before the game.The tears, as you canimagine, were flowingfreely.“Everybody was cry-ing,” TatumAldridge said.“It was an emotional time.I’m very sad to leave thisteam, because I loveeverybody on it.”This story already has ahappy ending.Amagical ending wouldbe a state championship,and this team seems tohave what it takes tomake a deep run.The Lady Grangers arehot, they’ve won eightstraight games, and twicein the past few weeksthey’ve beaten a Colum-bus team that won state ayear ago.“Our confidence is wayhigh,” Aldridge said. “Wejust want to win statenow.”For Matt Aldridge, it’senough just to see hisdaughter back on a ball-field she she is so content.“She’s a great girl,” hesaid. “I enjoy watchingher. It makes her happy.That’s all I want.“For her to still have ballin her life, I know itmeans a lot to her.”
and know that they will be thankfulwhen we make that big kick in thegame.”There is no questioning the impor-tance the kickers can have during agame, though, especially ones that areclose.The place kicker’s contribution is easyto measure.When he does his job, the team gets toput points on the scoreboard.The punter doesn’t change the score,but especially in tight ballgames whenfield position is more important, his roleis vital.Fortunately for the Cavaliers, they’reblessed to have two talented and capa-ble men manning those positions.The pressure isn’t felt just duringgames, either.As a long day of practice was windingdown Tuesday evening, head coach PeteWiggins had a little wager for his team.The special-teams unit was just fin-ishing up practice for extra-point andfield-goal attempts when Wiggins in-formed them that if Thompsonmade thenext kick,then practice would end with-out the team having to finish up withwind sprints.Thompson stood about 40 yards awayfrom the goal posts, with his teammateson the sidelines cheering him on.Thompson took a deep breath beforecalling for the ball, and he drilled thekick through the uprights.An eruption followed, and Thompsonwas soon surrounded by overjoyedteammates who were thankful for thebreak after a rigorous practice.“It felt good to be able to make one,”Thompson said. “We did the same thingthe week before the Troup game (in theseason opener) and I wasn’t able tomake it.”Growing up Thompson, was your typ-ical athlete and was involved in manysports.He always held a passion for soccer, butwhen he arrived at Callaway High foundthat the soccer season would interferewith another favorite sport, baseball.Thompson would choose to play base-ball, and served as the team’s third base-man last year and was awardeddefensive player award by the team.“I have learned a lot from playingbaseball and I try to bring some of thelessons from playing over to kicking,”
Thompson said. “The main thing that Icarry over is handling a situation, andnot to let all the pressure get to me.”Thompson said that he has made theright decision, but he still found himselfwith the urge kick.“I have played soccer all of my life,”Thompson said. “I just loved to kick theball. At the same time though I alsoloved playing baseball, and with thembeing at the same time during the year Ihad to choose one. I chose baseball, butI still wanted to kick, so I thought that Icould kick the football alright, so I cameout here and tried it.”It’s worked out well for Thompson,and for the Cavs.He made his presence felt in theopener when he made a pair of fieldgoals in the opener against Troup.Thompson is also a weapon on kick-offs, often kicking the ball into the endzone, meaning the opposing team can’treturn it.Caleb Drake, the long snapper, andJacob Bonner, the holder, are also keycomponents of the Cavs’ special-teamsunit.For Dremann, being the punter for theteam was a family affair.Dremann’s older brother Casonserved as the team’s punter during hisfreshman year, and the position becamesomething of a legacy for him.“My brother was the punter for theteamwhen I was a freshman,” Dremannsaid. “He was pretty good for the team,and so he talked me into doing it. I wasa little skeptical at first, then I came outhere and started to kick and ended upreally liking it.”The one thing that Dremann said re-ally sold him on the idea of punting wasthe strategy that goes into the act beforethe kick is made.“Punting is a little bit more than justkicking the ball as far as you can,” Dre-mann said. “There is a lot of strategy in-volved in it, like when you are trying topin your opponent at the goal line, orplace the punt in a certain spot. It’s oneof the hardest things that I have done.”While Dremann is behind the specialteams unit, ready to call for the ball in agame situation, he said that he has onlyone thing going through his mind.“The main thing that goes through myhead is don’t get blocked,”Dremann said.“That’s the first thing. Catch it and don’tget blocked, because the defense is send-ing the fastest and strongest guys at youand their main goal is to block the punt.”
ATLANTA (AP) –Bobby Coxstrolled into the Atlanta Bravesclubhouse around lunchtimeTuesday with that familiar wad-dle, only this time he was wear-ing his new uniform: A blue golfshirt and slacks.The duds of retirement.“Are y’all still here?” he jokingly
yelled toward the handful of play-ers who had returned to clean outtheir lockers, not even 24 hoursremoved from a season-endingloss in the NL division series.On the first day of the rest ofhis life, Cox still had plenty ofloose ends to tie up. First up wasa meeting with general manager
Frank Wren, probably to startgraphing out his new consultingrole with the organization. Atsome point, he’ll have to pack uphis office to make room for thenext guy.As strange as it seems, some-one besides ol’ No. 6 will be oc-cupying that spot next season –
and all signs pointed to formerFloridamanager Fredi Gonzalez.Wren made it clear he’s al-ready got a timeframe in mind toname Cox's successor. Gonzalezhas seemed the most obviouschoice since he was fired in Juneafter 3.5 years as the Marlinsmanager.

Brianna Smith wasn’tsure what to expect.When she came out forher senior season as aCallaway High softballplayer, there was a newcoach, Nick Drescher,calling the shots.It was with a certain de-gree of apprehension thatSmith began her final sea-son.“I thought it was goingto be hard with a newcoach,” Smith said. “Butit’s been a lot better than Ithought (it would be). It’sprepared me for college. Idon’t want to leave.”Smith doesn’t have toleave quite yet.She has at least twomore games to play.Today, Callaway willtake on Rockmart in thefirst round of the ClassAA state playoffs, and hasbeen the case for nearlyevery game the past twoyears, Smith will becrouched behind theplate.A second baseman herfreshman and sophomoreseasons, Smith has beenthe starting catcher thepast two years.Her role this year hasbeenmore important thanever.As one of two seniorson the squad along withWhitley Arrington, Smithhas been a critical voice ofleadership.Smith has also workedclosely with freshmanpitcher Audrey Barrett,who has come along tobecome the staff ace.Then there’s work onthe field, which has beenhuge.She’s been a rock de-fensively behind the plate,and she’s also been one ofthe team’s top hitters.Smith is hopeful oflanding a spot on the La-Grange College softballteam after graduation,and Drescher feels she’dbe a great fit there.“She’s the type that willdo whatever you say, andshe’s got the athletic abil-ity to do well,” Dreschersaid.As an eighth-grader,Smith was the catcher onthe junior varsity team,but she moved to secondbase when she joined the
varsity team while hercousin, Kylie Vermeer,manned the catcher posi-tion.Heading into the 2009season, there was anopening at catcher, andSmith landed the job.“It wasn’t a huge adjust-ment. It was a little onebecause I’d already hadexperience catching,” shesaid.Still, Smith felt she hada lot to learn, and thisyear especially she be-lieves she has made greatstrides with Drescher atthe helm.“He’s helped teach methe fundamentals, and I’ma lot more relaxed backthere than I used to be,”she said.Smith enjoys the posi-tion.She likes “being theleader,” and she doesn’teven mind the bumps andbruises that comewith theposition.“You have to be tough,”she said.Smith also likes work-ing with the young play-ers, including Barrett andfreshman catcher BrookeBonner.When Smith was un-able to play in Saturday’sRegion 5-AA tournamentopener against Templebecause she was takingthe SAT, it was Bonnerwho was behind the plate.Smith knew she wasgoing to miss that game,so she spent a lot of timehelping get Bonner ready.“We just had her pre-pared for it,” Smith said.“She got back there andpracticed for a week. Shedid a real good job.”When Callaway’s sea-son ends, Smith won’t getmuch time to relax.She plays on the bas-ketball team and the soc-cer team, and she’ll alsomix in some travel soft-ball.

they work hard, and theythe hard work they’ve putin has certainly paid off.”Indeed it has.The hot streak beganwith a 1-0 victory overHaralson County on Sept.14, and the LadyGrangers followed that upwith seven more wins, in-cluding a 2-1 win overColumbus in the region-title game.LaGrange also beatColumbus, which wonlast year’s Class AAAstate title, 1-0 during thewinning streak.This team, as seniorTerryuana Godwin said,goes into a game “expect-ing to win instead of hop-ing to win.”Beating the defendingstate champion not once,but twice, doesn’t hurt ateam’s confidence level.Even when Columbustied the region-champi-onship game with a two-out home run in theseventh inning, La-Grange’s confidence did-n’t waver.“When we got tied,everybody didn’t getdown,” Godwin said. “Westayed up.”In the bottom of theninth inning, LaGrangescored a run to win it.“That was the most ten-sion that we’ve had allyear,” said sophomoreJordan Ann Maguoirk.“We thought we had it inthe bag. We were readyfor the last pitch.”The celebration was puton hold for a couple of in-nings, but LaGrange wonthe game, and that’s allthat mattered.“We did it. We knew wecould,” Maguoirk said.Godwin had a solohome run in that game,and Karsin Spinks drovein the other run with afielder’s choice in theninth inning.And Anderson, as shehas been pretty much allseason, was dominant,striking out 17 batters innine innings while givingup just three hits.This seeds for this sea-son’s success were sewnduring the summer whenthe team went through atough conditioning pro-gram.Spending so much timetogether, Magouirk said,brought the players closertogether.“We had summer work-outs and we all got toknow each other then,”she said. “We all just kindof bonded. We just have aconnection that we didn’thave last year.”The players, Magouirksaid, learned to “lean oneach other. We learnedthat we have each other’sback.”Added Godwin, one ofthree seniors along withthird baseman TatumAldridge and catcherEmilee Manning: “We’reclose. We’re together. It’snever been this close. It’snever been like this.”Binion, who was ateammate of head coachJan Jones’ at Troup High,said there is “a lot of posi-tive energy.”“We’ve tried to tell thesegirls that if we work to-gether on and off the field,we’ll succeed,” she said.“The girls have boughtinto it.”The bond the playershave is important, but itdoesn’t hurt to have abunch of gifted athletes aswell.Anderson has beendominant since Day 1,and she has been the dif-ference in a lot of games.In the two victories overColumbus, she outdueledChandler Padgett, whoguided that team to thestate title a year ago.On offense, Spinks, oneof a handful of freshmanin the lineup, sets thetable as the leadoff hitter.Junior Kasie Lester andMagouirk set the table forthe next three hitters, sen-iors Godwin, Manningand Aldridge.F r e s hm a n S h e l b yO’Neal, sophomore MaryMargaret Rogers, fresh-man Taylor Livingstonand freshman SavannaWooten round out thelineup.
