LocalBurn ban in effect for Oua. County

As of today, a county-wide burn ban has been issued per an executive order from the office of Ouachita Coun-ty Judge Mike Hesterly.

Due to the lack of signifi-cant rainfall and the result-ing dry conditions in the area, it is now dangerous for residents to burn trash, leaves or other articles.

By TAMMY FRAZIERNews Editor

Ouachita County Judge Mike Hesterly has recently been grant-ed new conditions to parts of mo-tions his attorney filed regarding the conditions of his release from jail in January of this year.

The judge was indicted on accu-sations that he and Bearden con-tractor Harry Clemons Jr. were involved in a scheme to award a Federal Emergency Management

Agency disaster-relief contract to Clemons in return for a contribu-tion to Hesterly’s 2010 re-election campaign.

Both men pleaded not guilty in U.S. District Court in El Dorado, and Clemons was released on a $5,000 bond. However, Hesterly remained in jail for several days due to an accusation that he made threats against local contractor Jeff Davis and FBI agent Randy Powe.

The county judge was released from jail into the custody of his mother, Mamie Hesterly, with electronic monitoring on Jan. 28 and ordered to live at her house. It was also stipulated that he was not to have contact with the two assistants - Amy Olvey and Diane Ezell - in his office at the court-house, nor with Ouachita County Highway Department Supervisor Rudie Galbert, Davis or Powe.

Since that time, the judge lost

custody of his children, but was later granted partial custody of them, according to documents from the U.S. District Court, Western District. Also, his fa-ther’s health has deteriorated sig-nificantly, according to Hesterly’s attorney, Jamie Pratt. The life-threatening illness has caused Hesterly’s father to be hospital-ized in Little Rock, El Dorado and Camden.

Pratt filed motions stating that

Hesterly is responsible for “daily responsibilities in his household and his parent’s household” and when his mother is with his fa-ther during stays in the hospital, the terms of his release cause dif-ficulty in fulfilling his responsi-bilities. Hesterly also asked that he be allowed to travel with his father to doctor’s appointments and to be with his father when he is hospitalized.

SAU Tech currently holdingSTAR campaign for donations

By PATRIC FLANNIGANStaff Writer

The Southern Arkansas University Tech Foundation is promoting it’s annual STAR Campaign in hopes of providing more funds for scholarships and housing.

The Supporter of Tech’s Annual Request Campaign is designed to attract contribu-tions from individuals or businesses to pledge money for the improvement of SAU Tech’s services with students. Anyone who chooses to be a STAR can create their own fund via bonds, stocks, cash, bequest, or even life in-surance, according to the foundation.

There are also funds that are already in place at the school such as the Technology and Enhancement Funds.

Dr. Diane Betts, the foundation’s executive director, says that this will mark the third year for the STAR Campaign, and the event has grown every year.

“We have always received great support from the community,” Betts said. “The people around here and the local businesses have al-ways been generous.”

Betts also stated that this year’s supporters could contribute to making the school avail-able to more students.

“We are really excited about building ad-vancing student housing,” she added. ‘With the additional area, we will be able to house another 24 students.”

According to a press release from Ted Barnes, president of the SAU Tech Founda-tion, “As a supporter of the SAU Tech foun-dation, you will be supporting students, pro-grams and activities of the college and the future of our community.”

Arkansan Pastors for Gun Sense sign gun control pledgeA coalition of more than 50 African-

American pastors from all across Arkansas banded together in Marianna recently to discuss gun violence solutions and sign a resolution in support of gun violence pre-vention in African-American communities, according to a news release.

The gathering was the largest group of pastors yet to join in support of gun vio-lence solutions and urge lawmakers in Washington to finally take action on closing background check loopholes.

On the heels of a recent study by the Children’s Defense Fund which revealed that gun violence is the leading source of deaths among black children in the U.S, the

pastors continue their push to get Senators Boozman to reverse their votes against life-saving background checks.

This is the third and largest event Arkan-san Pastors for Gun Sense has held since their launch in August.

In September, the group will hold anoth-er large community event in Marianna to listen to the concerns of congregants and commit to grassroots activism in order to have their voices heard.

Gun violence is the leading source of deaths among black children in the U.S, ac-cording to a new study by the Children’s Defense Fund, and Arkansas sees twice the number of aggravated assaults with fire-

arms than the national average. The overwhelming majority of Arkansans

support expanding background checks. “Today’s resolution represents a monu-

mental step forward for our organiza-tion,” said the Rev. Elliott Blocker of Little Rock. “We all agreed that the bloodshed in our communities is both preventable and unacceptable. As Pastors, the hardest thing we can do is console a grieving family, and we believe it is our responsibility to bring unity and comfort to our congregations in that troubling time.

"But lawmakers can put a dent in the num-ber of African-Americans killed by guns with action to make sure guns don’t fall

into the wrong hands. Our communities are paying attention now to see who will stand with them and follow through on promises to keep Arkansas neighborhoods safe.”

“We signed the resolution to make our voices heard. No longer will we stand by as loose gun laws allow anyone with a crimi-nal past to buy guns without any questions asked,” said the Rev. Jarvis Smith of Hel-ena.

“I hope we can come together with our Senators to find some common ground, be-cause the rate of gun violence in Arkansas – and across the country – is far too high to stand idly by without any action.”

Life’s Problems: ONE SOLUTION

It’s just that easy.

Anger And Sin The Bible tells us that we should not let our anger become sin, because the wages of sin are death.

As humans, we have many different emotions, and how we handle these emotions determines, in part, wh at kind of person we are. Everyone enjoys being around someone who is loving, kind and pleasant. We usu ally try to avoid people who are rude, inconsiderate or ill-tempered.

Most everyone will get angry at one time or another, but when our anger is out of control, we usually do not act as God would want. Controlling our anger can sometimes be helpful in correcting c ertain situations, and may help us avoid harming others by our actions or words. When children misbehave, t hey may cause a parent to become angry. The way in which parents handle these situations can serve to be an important learning experience for the ch ild. Our Heavenly Father wants us to be an example of his love, and being slow to anger and full of compassio n for those around us reflects God’s love.

If you become angry, do not let your anger lead you into sin, and do not stay angry all day. Good News Bible Ephesians 4:26

Man killed at a Stuttgartnightclub over weekend

STUTTGART (AP) — Stuttgart police say they have had trouble ob-taining information from people who may have witnessed holiday weekend violence that left one person dead and five others injured.

The violence erupted early Sunday at Casey’s Warehouse, where police say Albert Goodloe, 32, died from a gunshot wound.

Three of the injured had been shot, one was stabbed and one was beaten, the Stuttgart Daily Leader reported Thursday. Assistant Police Chief Ste-ven Bobo says all five received treat-ment at area hospitals. Their names haven’t been released.

No arrests have been made. He asked that anyone with informa-

tion contact Stuttgart police.

LITTLE ROCK (AP) — Little Rock National Airport is one of 60 airports nationwide that will allow passengers to be pre-approved for travel and avoid long security screenings.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette newspaper reported today that the federal Transportation Security Ad-ministration will implement the pro-gram at Little Rock and 59 other cities by the end of the year.

The program lets travelers keep their shoes, belts and light outerwear on during security checks, keep their laptops in their cases and keep liquids and gels in their carry-on bags.

Officials plan a National Recovery Month for future

LITTLE ROCK (AP) — The Arkan-sas Department of Human Services is holding an event to encourage people recovering from behavioral health is-sues to speak out.

The state is marking National Recov-ery Month today with a news confer-ence and celebration on the Clinton presidential library lawn in downtown Little Rock. The event will include a governor’s proclamation and stories of substance abuse and mental health recovery from those who are living it. The event will also feature comments from supporters of Arkansans who are in recovery, along with information about recovery and refreshments.

The event will begin at 11 a.m.

Member of Beebe's staff says he was carjacked

LITTLE ROCK (AP) — The deputy chief of staff for Gov. Mike Beebe says he was beaten, robbed and carjacked in Little Rock early Thursday morning but police say they have different ac-counts of a crime.

Police say 42-year-old Lamar Davis told officers that he was driving early Thursday when three men flagged him down, then beat him, took him to an ATM and robbed him.

Also overnight, a woman called from a motel and told investigators she saw three men in a black truck rob her child’s father, whom she identified as Mark Wilson.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported today that investigators be-lieve the calls were about the same in-cident but were attempting to sort it

out. Beebe spokesman Matt DeCample said Davis told police he didn’t know anyone named Mark Wilson.

Special prosecutor sought for removal of Ark. sheriff

BENTON (AP) — An Arkansas pros-ecutor has asked a judge to appoint a special prosecutor to explore the pos-sibility of removing the sheriff of Sa-line County following his guilty plea to a public drunkenness charge.

Prosecuting Attorney Ken Casady made the request in a letter Thurs-day to Judge Robert Herzfeld. Casady says ethical concerns and his previ-ous working relationship with Sheriff Bruce Pennington had forced him to step aside from any removal proceed-ing.

Pennington pleaded guilty last month to resisting arrest and public intoxica-tion. The charges followed his arrest in late June. Afterward, he sent out a one-sentence letter saying he would retire effective Oct. 1, but he later changed his mind and said he wanted to finish his term and run for re-election.

Many officials have called on Pen-nington to leave office.

Court date set for a man charged in cyclist’s death

AUGUSTA (AP) — A 21-year-old man accused of driving into and in-juring a group of bicyclists traveling through Arkansas on a cross-country trip has been released on his own re-cognizance.

Prosecutors filed paperwork last week charging Teagan Ross Martin of Newport with negligent homicide after one of the cyclists died this summer.

Martin also faces one count of care-less and prohibited driving and 13 counts related to overtaking a bicycle.

Martin’s lawyer, Jack Lassiter, said Thursday that his client appeared be-fore a judge in Augusta on Tuesday and was released on his own recogni-zance. Martin is due back in court on Sept. 19.

Eighteen-year-old Merritt Levitan, of Milton, Mass., died from her injuries following the July 2 crash near McCro-ry. Several other cyclists were hurt.

LITTLE ROCK (AP) — Simmons First National Corp. of Pine Bluff has submitted a $16.9 million bid to ac-quire Metropolitan National Bank of Little Rock, which is being offered for sale through the bankruptcy of its holding company.

A document detailing the bid was submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednes-day, Arkansas Business reported Thursday.

Rogers Bancshares Inc. owns Met-ropolitan and is offering to sell Met-ropolitan through an auction Monday that would be the first of its kind in Arkansas banking history. U.S. Bank-ruptcy Judge James Mixon has sched-uled a hearing for Sept. 12 to consider approving the winning bid.

Calls to Simmons First were not im-mediately returned.

It is unclear if other companies have

submitted bids, but Simmons was re-quired to notify the SEC of any “mate-rial event” as a publicly traded com-pany.

Simmons and any other bidders will compete for the bank against Ford Fi-nancial Fund II, a $750 million invest-ment fund based in Dallas. Metropoli-tan announced in July that Ford had offered $16 million for all of the bank’s stock.

The Ford fund will play the role of “stalking horse” in the bankruptcy reorganization, meaning that it will have the opportunity to match a more favorable bid submitted by other en-tities. If Ford ends up being outbid, Rogers Bancshares will have to pay Ford a $640,000 “break-up fee,” which will also require the judge’s approval.

Metropolitan suffered from a num-ber of troubled loans in northwestern Arkansas that led to $100 million in

losses in 2008. The bank has been un-der a supervisory agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Cur-rency since May 2008 and has worked since 2009 to find someone to recapi-talize it.

Ford has said it intends to make a $74.2 million capital contribution to the bank if it is the successful bidder.

Metropolitan had assets of $1.03 bil-lion and equity capital of $65.7 million as of March 31. Simmons First Nation-al is a $3.6 billion financial holding company with 91 offices in 54 commu-nities, in Arkansas, Kansas and Mis-souri.

Simmons last year won a bid to ac-quire Excel Bank in Sedalia, Mo., in an FDIC-assisted deal. It also made two FDIC-assisted acquisitions in 2010, one in Springfield, Mo., and one in Olathe, Kan.

Simmons First bids on another bank

LITTLE ROCK (AP) — Bill Clinton urged opponents of the federal health care law Wednesday to stop trying to repeal it and instead work to improve it, as the White House enlisted the former president to make the case for its signature domestic accomplishment.

Speaking at his presiden-tial library in downtown Little Rock, Clinton offered a detailed defense and ex-planation of the law as a key part of its implementation nears. His nearly hour-long speech was the first in a se-ries of addresses expected by administration officials and allies defending the law this fall.

“It seems to me that the benefits of the reform can’t be fully realized and the problem certainly can’t be solved unless both the sup-porters and the opponents of the original legislation work together to implement it and address the issues that arise whenever you change a system this complex,” Clinton told more than 300 people. “There are always drafting errors, unintended consequences, unantici-pated issues. We’re going to do better working together

and learning together than we will trying over and over again to repeal the law or rooting for the reform to fail.”

Clinton’s speech comes with the Affordable Care Act in final countdown mode, just a few weeks before the scheduled Oct. 1 launch of online health insurance markets in the states. The markets — also called ex-changes— are supposed to be a one-stop portal to the benefits of the law. Middle-class people with no access to health care on the job will be eligible for subsidized private coverage, while the poor and near-poor will be steered to Medicaid in states agreeing to expand the pro-gram. Markets will open in all the states, even those re-fusing to expand Medicaid.

Even though Clinton’s speech was overshadowed by the Syria debate, the White House hopes to get a much-needed boost from the former president. Obama, who has dubbed the 42nd president the “secretary of explaining stuff,” tapped Clinton’s persuasive pow-ers during the congressional debate over the health care law, sending him to Capitol

Hill to cajole worried Dem-ocrats.

Clinton, who unsuccess-fully pushed for health care reform as president, praised the 2010 law for addressing the cost and availability of health care.

“This does give us the best chance we have to achieve nearly universal cover-age, provide higher quality health care and lower the rate of cost increases, which we have got to do in a com-petitive global economy,” he said.

Clinton offered sugges-tions to improve the law, including expanding the availability of tax credits for small businesses. He also called on Congress to ad-dress a glitch in the law that prevents some workers who can’t afford the employer coverage that they are of-fered on the job from getting financial assistance from the government to buy private health insurance on their own.

Republicans in 2010 un-seated incumbent Demo-cratic Sen. Blanche Lincoln by tying her to the federal health care law, and hope to do the same with Demo-cratic Sen. Mark Pryor next

year. Pryor has defended his vote for the overhaul and has been touting the benefits Arkansas will see.

The expansion, which Democratic Gov. Mike Bee-be signed into law, sharply divided Republicans in the state House and Senate. Backers of the move called it a conservative compromise that would help businesses, while opponents said it was no different than expanding Medicaid’s enrollment.

“My view is Arkansas did a good thing, a bipartisan thing, a practical thing and the rest of us ought to get behind them and help them,” he said.

Clinton spoke to a packed hall that included Beebe and lawmakers, including Re-publican legislative leaders who say they still oppose the health overhaul despite the state’s plan to expand coverage.

“I continue to think the Affordable Care Act is bad policy for the country, but meanwhile I’m still con-vinced we did the right thing for Arkansas,” House Speak-er Davy Carter, R-Cabot, said after the speech.

U.S. & World News DigestNYPD IDs driver in the video of Manhattan lap

NEW YORK (AP) — New York City police have identified the driv-er who they say posted an Internet video of himself speeding around Manhattan in just over 24 minutes.

Police on Thursday arrested 30-year-old Christopher Adam Tang of Manhattan. They charged him with reckless driving, reckless endanger-ment and other charges. Police also seized his 2006 BMW Z4.

The video was posted on Aug. 28. With a camera mounted on the

dashboard, it records the car travel-ing southbound on the FDR Drive from 116th Street to Battery Park and then up West Street back to 116th Street. Along the 26.4-mile loop, it stops for six red lights.

Electronic dance music provides the soundtrack as a stopwatch su-perimposed on the screen keeps time: 24 minutes and 7 seconds.

There was no listing for Tang in Manhattan.

Family claims body of Ohio kidnapper Castro

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A coroner says the body of Cleveland

kidnapper Ariel Castro has been claimed by his family as authorities continue to investigate how a man who was perhaps Ohio’s most no-torious inmate managed to commit suicide while under close supervi-sion in prison.

Franklin County Coroner Jan Worniak says the family picked up Castro’s body today.

The 53-year-old Castro was a month into a life sentence for the kidnapping, rape and decade-long imprisonment of three women in his home when he committed sui-cide Tuesday night. The former school bus driver had been taken off suicide watch while in county jail.

Castro said in a videotaped FBI in-terrogation that aired on NBC’s “To-day” show today that police missed many opportunities to capture him.

Teen suspect in court on FBI murder attempt

CHICAGO (AP) — A suburban Chicago teenager already facing terrorism charges in what prosecu-tors describe as an attempt to bomb a downtown bar will be arraigned on new charges after authorities say he tried to have an undercover FBI agent killed.

Adel Daoud is scheduled to ap-pear in Chicago federal court today, a week after prosecutors announced the new charges, including solici-tation of murder. The 19-year-old Hillside man is expected to enter a not guilty plea.

Investigators say that while be-hind bars, Daoud tried to arrange to kill an agent who prosecutors say played a role in the sting that led to his 2012 arrest.

He’s been in jail since then for try-ing to ignite what he thought was a car bomb outside the bar. He plead-ed not guilty in that case.

U.S. orders diplomats to exit out of Lebanon

WASHINGTON (AP) — The State Department ordered nones-sential U.S. diplomats to leave Leba-non due to security concerns today as the Obama administration and Congress debate military strikes on neighboring Syria.

In a new travel warning for Leba-non issued early today, the depart-ment said it had instructed nones-sential staffers to leave Beirut and urged private American citizens to depart Lebanon.

The step had been under con-

sideration since last week when President Barack Obama said he was contemplating military action against the Syrian government for its alleged chemical weapons attack last month that the administration said killed more than 1,400 people near Damascus.

The U.S. closed 19 embassies and consulates across Africa and the Mid-dle East last month for more than a week after a terrorist threat. Hezbol-lah, an Assad ally that has sent fight-ers into Syria, is based in Lebanon.

Labs seeking a certain sarin chemical signature

WASHINGTON (AP) — Three simple numbers will prove whether sarin was used to gas Syrians last month: 99-125-81.

Chemists this week around Europe are feeding samples of bodily tissue and dirt collected after chemical at-tacks in Syria into sophisticated ma-chines. They are waiting for those three numbers to read out in a bar graph on a computer screen. Carlos Fraga, a chemist who specializes in nerve agent forensics at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Wash., calls those num-bers sarin’s fingerprint.

zona woman who has spent more than two decades on death row after being con-victed of having her 4-year-old son killed for an insur-ance payout is expected to be released today while she awaits a retrial of the case that made her one of the state’s most reviled inmates.

Judge Rosa Mroz of Mari-copa County Superior Court set Debra Milke’s bond at $250,000 a day earlier, saying there’s no direct evidence linking her to her son’s death other than a purported con-fession to a detective. And, the judge said, the validity of that confession is in doubt.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Milke would probably be released today. Defense at-torney Michael Kimerer did not respond to questions from The Associated Press.

If she is freed, Milke’s lawyers have said she plans to stay at a home that sup-porters bought for her in the Phoenix area. She has been imprisoned since 1990.

Prosecutors say Milke had her son, Christopher, killed to collect on a $5,000 insur-ance policy. Authorities say she dressed the boy in his fa-vorite outfit and told him he was going to see Santa Claus at a mall in December 1989. She then handed the boy over to two men who were later convicted of taking the child to the desert and shooting him.

Her pending freedom, at least for now, comes six months after a federal ap-peals court overturned Mil-ke’s conviction, ruling that the prosecution should have disclosed information about the truthfulness of the now-retired detective who testi-fied that Milke confessed.

Milke was a 25-year-old in-surance company clerk when her son was killed. Now 49, she has maintained her inno-cence, saying she had noth-ing to do with the slaying.

The two men convicted in the case both remain on death row. Neither Roger

Scott nor former Milke roommate James Styers tes-tified at Milke’s trial. Scott confessed during a police interrogation and led detec-tives to the boy’s body.

Maricopa County pros-ecutors are still seeking the death penalty against Milke at her retrial, tentatively for Sept. 30, and her alleged confession is at the heart of the case against her.

Police detective Armando Saldate Jr. testified at Mil-ke’s trial that she confessed to him in a closed interroga-tion room.

But Saldate’s honesty was called into question dur-ing Milke’s appeals. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap-peals concluded in March that prosecutors’ failure to turn over evidence related to Saldate’s credibility de-prived Milke’s attorneys of the chance to question his truthfulness before jurors.

“No civilized system of jus-tice should have to depend on such flimsy evidence, quite possibly tainted by dis-honesty or overzealousness, to decide whether to take someone’s life or liberty,” Chief Judge Alex Kozinski wrote for the court.

The court noted four cases in which judges threw out confessions or indictments because Saldate lied under oath and four instances in which cases were tossed out or confessions excluded because Saldate violated the suspect’s constitutional rights.

He was also suspended for accepting sexual favors from a female motorist he stopped and then lying about the en-counter, the court said.

Deputy County Attorney Vince Imbordino argued last week during a bond hearing that the purported confes-sion is still admissible, but Mroz said the undisclosed material concerning Saldate “casts serious doubt” on its validity.

The judge scheduled a Sept. 23 hearing on the defense’s request to prohibit the pros-

ecution from using the con-fession during the retrial.

“Much has transpired since the original trial,” Mroz said.

Milke’s ex-husband, a man

named Arizona Milke, is convinced his former wife was involved in their son’s murder. He said Thursday he intends to sue her, the state and Saldate for what he

believes is a conspiracy to conceal the boy’s real killer.

“She’ll win this case crimi-nally,” he said Thursday. “But she’ll lose it civilly, and so will the state.”

DEAR ABBY: I have a half-sister with whom I share a mother. Her father and my mother were mar-ried for almost 10 years. This man, I believe, had some mental issues. He would quiz me about my sexual relations with my boyfriend at the time, wanting details. He would of-ten fly off the handle and argue with my mother for no reason. There are too many other examples to list. Quite frankly, he was a horrible hus-band and father.

This man died two years ago. My half-sister has since immortalized her father into someone he was not. She even tattooed his initials on her wrist.

Abby, how is a person supposed to deal with a relative who is living in fantasyland about a parent? His widow has sent her emails telling her the kind of man he really was, but she continues to act as if he was the world’s best father even though he wasn’t.

- KNOWS THE TRUTH

DEAR KNOWS THE TRUTH:

Either your former stepfather was the greatest father in the world to HER, or your half-sister

needs the fantasy she’s clinging to for her emotional well-be-ing. Let her have her fantasy if it comforts her. If she raises the subject of good old dad with you, just tell her you’d prefer not to discuss it. If you do that, you’ll both be happier.

DEAR ABBY: I’m 31 and the moth-er of three awesome children. At 29, I left my husband of nine years and came out of the closet. I have been in a stable two-year relationship with my girlfriend, and she recently moved in with us.

My oldest child has started asking if his friends can come and stay the night on a weekend. I let one child spend the night with him once. My sister asked me if I had told the child’s parent that I’m a lesbian liv-ing with a partner. When I said no, she got upset and said that because we live in a small, religious coun-try town I should inform the child’s

parent of my living situation. I can see where she’s coming from,

but I don’t feel it’s my responsibil-ity to offer this personal informa-tion. We’re hardworking, law-abid-ing citizens, and I am a loving and protective mother. We aren’t felons who need to “disclose” our personal “crimes.” What do you think?

- PROUD MAMA IN THE SOUTH

DEAR PROUD MAMA: I, too, can see where your sister is com-ing from, and I don’t like the di-rection. You are not under any obligation to announce your sexual orientation to anyone. In a small town -- religious or not -- word gets around quickly on its own. Trust me on that. However, if you are asked directly, you should be honest.

DEAR ABBY: Our daughter was married recently. During the wed-

ding or the reception, someone stole money from the purses of at least two of the bridesmaids.

Are the bride’s parents responsi-ble for the loss?

- MOTHER OF THE BRIDE IN ALABAMA

DEAR MOTHER OF THE

BRIDE: What happened was un-fortunate, and I hope the lesson the bridesmaids learned from this wasn’t an expensive one. Un-less you agreed to look after the young women’s belongings, you are not responsible for the loss. They should have left their purs-es with someone they trusted or secured in a locked room or car.

As a gesture of good will, de-pending upon the state of your fi-nances, you might want to make good on their loss. But you are not required to do so.

Also, the motion stated that the terms make it dif-ficult for him to provide transportation and acquire necessities for his children.

The judge was also re-questing that he and his family be allowed to move from his mother’s home to his residence after a July fire damaged his mother’s home. Court papers state that the home is currently “uninhab-itable” and repairs will take several weeks.

The motion also addressed Hesterly’s contact with his assistants and Galbert, and the document states that “there is no evidence the Mr. Hesterly has presented a danger to his co-workers.” Hesterly’s motion stated that the ruling regarding no contact with co-workers “has caused delays in the ad-ministration of the affairs of Ouachita County.”

Court papers also show that Olvey, Ezell and Galbert signed affidavits stating that they “have no fear, concern or hesitation about working directly with Judge Hesterly again.”

Hesterly was granted part of the motions filed.

Pratt told the Camden News that the court changed the wording of Hesterly’s re-lease from “home incarcera-tion” to “home detention,” meaning that he will still be electronically monitored, but can - with permission from his probation officer - move to back into his home while repairs are being made to his mother’s home.

It was also granted that the judge can attend necessary meetings or other activities regarding his children’s edu-cation and care, religious services, necessary visits or trips for medical treatment meetings with counsel, at-tending court proceedings or other activities as are pre-approved by his probation officer.

“All other previous condi-tions of release will remain in effect,” the decision states. This means Hesterly still cannot have contact with co-workers and must still fulfill his duties as judge from his home.

Hesterly and Clemons’ trial was to have been held in August, but has now been set for Nov. 4.

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A Montana judge appeared intent on trying to undo his lenient sentence for a teach-er who raped a student, even as prosecutors pressed the state Supreme Court on Fri-day to stop him until their appeal is resolved.

A resentencing hearing was planned later in the day for Stacey Rambold, 54, who pleaded guilty to one count of rape in August.

An emergency petition from the state attorney gen-eral’s office to block the re-sentencing was pending be-fore the state Supreme Court after being filed at close of business Thursday.

State attorneys said hold-ing the hearing as planned would “cause a gross injus-tice to an orderly appeal.”

Montana District Judge G. Todd Baugh started a fu-ror when he sentenced the former Billings Senior High teacher to prison for just 30 days and suggested the 14-year-old victim shared re-sponsibility in the case.

The girl committed suicide in 2010 while Rambold’s trial was pending.

The judge now says a two-year prison sentence appears mandatory for Rambold.

Prosecutors and a defense attorney say it’s too late for Baugh to reverse course. They contend the case must go through the appeal filed by the state earlier in the week.

The judge ordered Ram-bold returned Thursday from Montana State Prison for the resentencing hear-ing in Billings. Baugh said earlier in the week that he intended to hold the hearing even if he was the only one who shows up.

Further complicating the case is the fact that Baugh never signed a written sen-tencing order after making his oral pronouncement in the case during an Aug. 26 hearing. An oral order takes precedent in Montana, but the written judgment still is required.

University of Montana

Judge pursues resentencing hearing for the teacher rapist

School of Law professor Jef-frey Renz said the prosecu-tion and defense appear to have the law on their side in arguing Baugh’s attempt to change the sentence violates proper procedures.

But as a practical matter Rambold likely will return to Baugh’s courtroom one way or another, Renz said, since the state Supreme Court would remand the case back to him to fix any sentencing problems.

Beyond the legal issues in play, Friday’s hearing could give Baugh a chance to pub-licly explain actions that have sparked harsh criti-cism. Some activists say his disrespect for the victim makes him unfit for office.

A resentencing hearing “gives him a chance to pull his foot out of his mouth,” Renz said.

Baugh said while sentenc-

ing Rambold that the victim was “older than her chrono-logical age” and had control over the months-long rela-tionship with her teacher.

Prosecutors had called for a 20-year prison sentence with 10 years suspended. They didn’t challenge the 30-day sentence as illegal until later, when they dis-covered the mandatory min-imum term for sexual inter-course without consent was two years.

The sentence handed down had been suggested by Rambold’s attorney, Jay Lansing.

Lansing said in a Thursday court brief that a new sen-tence “will only create con-fusion and uncertainty for all parties.” He also said the original sentence — 15 years with all but 31 days suspend-ed and a one-day credit for time served — was allowed

under the law.Baugh has said giving Ram-

bold the minimum mandato-ry sentence was appropriate due to the circumstances of the case. He described the former teacher as a low-risk to re-offend who had no prior record and spent more than two years in a sex-of-fender treatment program.

The defendant entered that program in 2010, after Moralez’s suicide left pros-ecutors without their main witness in the case shortly before it was scheduled to go to trial.

That led to a deferred pros-ecution deal that allowed Rambold to avoid trial until he violated the terms of the agreement last year, for not reporting that he was in a sexual relationship with a woman and for unauthor-ized visits with family mem-bers’ children.

Sports EditorBoth Camden Fairview junior

high teams got off to a great start on Thursday by picking up sea-son opening wins over Arkadelphia. After the CF 8th-grade team defeat-ed the Junior Badgers 26-6, the CF 9th-grade team won its game 30-14.

In other junior high action, Bearden defeated Strong 40-14.

Camden Fairview wasn’t even originally scheduled to play on Thursday, after having a previously scheduled opponent back out of an agreement to play in Week 1. The Junior Cardinals were just able to add the Arkadelphia games, which is a conference opponent for the 9th-grade team, about a week ago for the non-conference matchup. The rematch between the two teams will be on Oct. 24 at Cardinal Stadium.

In the 8th-grade game, Arkadelphia scored on its first possession off a 53-yard run by its quarterback, and

CF junior high coach Chris Coker said he was starting to worry about a long season.

“They (Arkadelphia) came right out and scored, and we didn’t look very good at all in the first quarter,” Coker said. “We looked nervous and scared ... but we settled down after that and played really, really well from then on. We shut them down after the first score.”

The Junior Cardinals tied the game up on their first possession of the second quarter when Jordan Lewis hauled in a 64-yard touchdown pass from KJ Malone. CF went for a 2-point conversion and was stopped, leaving the game tied at 6-6.

Malone scored off a 9-yard run later in the quarter to put the Junior Cards up 12-6 at halftime. In the third quarter, Tarron Thompson

blocked a punt which set up a Gabrielle Morris 1-yard score which put the visitors up 18-6.

Thompson later added a 45-yard interception return for a touchdown

in the fourth quarter, and Tre Dennis caught a pass for a 2-

point conversion to set the final score at 26-6.

“Overall we had a really, really good game. Defensively Coach (Bo) Smith had his guys playing really good defense ... I think we held

them to something like 44 yards overall,” Coker

said. “Offensively we only had a little over 100 our-

selves, so there is room for improvement. But, I saw a lot of improvement from our scrimmage game against Lake Hamilton the week before.”

Coker said Malone finished the game 5-of-19 passing for 83 yards and

two touchdowns, while also noting that three passes “hit receivers in the chest and they just dropped them.”

“KJ made some better decisions out there against Arkadelphia,” the coach said. He added that Daterrean Curtis had four tackles and two sacks on defense, while Tyree Parham had four tackles and Morris had a sack.

In the 9th-grade game, Coker said he was especially encouraged about the team’s performance considering the Junior Cards had two starters sit out the first half for missing prac-tice, and two starters sit out the first quarter for disciplinary reasons.

Jesse Bush scored the 9th-grade team’s first touchdown from eight yards out, fighting his way through defenders the final two to three yards, Coker said.

Arkadelphia then tied the game up at 6-6 with a long run before Junior Cardinal quarterback Cameron Shaffer scored off a 64-yard run. Camden Fairview was then able to

Is Buck James horsing around?

Camden Fairview Coach Buck James will have more to worry about than just his team this fall. Buck James, a 2-year-old Macho Uno colt, is nearing his career debut after work-ing a half-mile in :49 from the gate Wednesday morn-ing at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. The colt is owned by Michael Hui of Little Rock, a longtime friend of the coach whose son plays football at Little Rock Christian. James and Hui attended Arkansas-Monticello in the 1980s.

“I’m not going to go out on a limb about Buck James,” the coach said Wednesday afternoon. “But I hope he’s a fast horse.”

The Canadian-bred colt is trained by Ron Moquett of Hot Springs, who is a regular at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs.

Buck James — the coach — led Fairview to a 14-0 record and the Class 5A state championship last fall. Fairview opened with a 49-21 victory at three-time defending Class 6A cham-pion El Dorado.

The rematch is tonight at Cardinal Stadium in Camden.

Manning’s 7 TDs give Broncos win

DENVER (AP) — Peyton Manning has four MVP trophies, a Super Bowl ring and countless NFL records.

He’d never had a night like this, though.

Manning threw seven touchdown passes in direct-ing Denver to a 49-27 rout of the Baltimore Ravens, showing the Super Bowl champs and the rest of the league Thursday night just why the Broncos are the trendy pick to win it all this season.

They walloped the Ravens behind the biggest day by an NFL quarterback in 44 years, when Manning’s father, Archie, was still running the offense at Ole Miss.

After eight long months — plus 33 minutes because of a lightning storm — Manning recovered from a slow start to pick apart the Ravens’ retooled defense that said goodbye to seven starters after winning the Super Bowl, including the heart and soul of that unit in Ed Reed and Ray Lewis.

Manning threw two TD passes each to Julius Thomas, Demaryius Thomas and Wes Welker, plus one to Bubba Caldwell.

“I felt like we had to keep scoring because Baltimore can score at any time,” said Manning, who was 27 of 42 for 462 yards with no interceptions for an off-the-charts quarterback rating of 141.1.

Junior Cards pick up two wins

By NATE ALLENFor the Camden News

FAYETTEVILLE - Perhaps Saturday’s change of venue can help guard against the Arkansas Razorbacks changing their attitude as the confident but respectful favorite they carried so well in their season-opening victory over the Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns.

The Razorbacks were 10.5 point favorites when Coach Bret Bielema last Saturday made his Arkansas debut in a 34-14 triumph at Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville. They are favored by 32 over the Samford Bulldogs of the Southern Conference from the lower Football Championship Subdivision former-ly known as 1-AA in Saturday’s 6 p.m. pay-per-view televised game at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock.

The Razorbacks were pumped full of season-opening adrenaline, and while new Coach Bielema has pointedly seldom discussed last year’ 4-8 disaster under inter-im Coach John L. Smith, the returning Razorbacks rue-fully remembered where their toboggan slide from No. 8 in the country to obliv-ion began.

Louisiana-Monroe, 30-point underdog of the same Sun Belt Conference from which Louisiana-Lafayette came last week to Fayetteville., upset the Razorbacks, 34-31 in overtime in the season’s second game at Little Rock.

Arkansas lost its other Little Rock game last year, a 30-27 SEC out-come versus Ole Miss.

Off Louisiana-Lafayette last year routing Louisiana-Monroe, some national experts, including ESPN/ABC analyst Kirk Herbstreit even picked Louisiana-Lafayette to upend

Arkansas last week.Precious few could be found

picking Samford now.Arkansas played like the SEC school as it is unleashing a balanced attack of 292 rushing yards, including 151 by sophomore run-ning back Jonathan Williams and 131

by freshman running back Alex Collins, while sophomore quarter-back Brandon Allen, completed 15 of 22 for 230 yards and three touch-downs without an interception.

Meanwhile Arkansas’ defense held ULL to just 87 yards rushing

while mostly stiffing ULL quarter-back Terrance Broadway, last year’s All-Sun Belt first-teamer.

So the Hogs have cause to feel good about themselves. That’s good with Bielema just so long as it is not too good.

Last week seven FCS teams upset teams of the FBS, the formerly top Division 1 until the NCAA went with Football Bowl Subdivision to blur lines of which is top tier.

Samford’s Bulldogs of Birmingham, Ala. were one of them defeating the Georgia State Panthers, 31-21 in Atlanta.

Georgia State has only played football since 2010, but the Panthers next year officially become Sun Belt members and are a FBS pelt that Samford can brag about skinning.

And it is just one game separating Arkansas’ dismal 2012 past from its

couldn’t find a way to slow down Devlon Wortham when it needed to the most in a season-opening shootout Thursday night in Durant, Okla.

Wortham carried 13 times for 220 yards and three touchdowns, including two in the fourth quarter as Southeastern Oklahoma State held on for a 56-50 vic-tory over the Muleriders at Paul Laird Field.

The 106 combined points were one shy of the Great American Conference reg-ular-season record set last season in Henderson State’s 73-34 victory over Arkansas Tech.

Wortham led a Savage Storm offense that rolled up 522 yards, while quarterback Nick Sioson completed 26 of 45 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns. Anthony Foster had a team-high eight receptions for 113 yards and one touchdown.

SAU quarterback Tyler Sykora completed 28 of 58 passes for 413 yards and four touchdowns with three interceptions as the Muleriders rolled up 641 total yards. Mark Johnson had 23 carries for 139 yards and two touchdowns, and Chris Terry had 10 recep-

tions for 247 yards and three touchdowns.

Southern Arkansas took a 10-0 first-quarter lead on a 48-yard field goal by Austin Shoemake and a 38-yard touchdown pass from Sykora to Zikerious Ware, but Southeastern Oklahoma scored the next 21 points for a 21-10 lead with 6:16 left in the opening half.

Both teams were just get-ting started.

Sykora hit Terry with a 69-yard touchdown pass with 5:26 left in the half, but Southeastern Oklahoma answered with a 7-yard touchdown run by Ladarius Adams that made it 28-16 with 50 seconds left. SAU closed out the first-half scoring with another touch-down pass from Sykora to Terry, this one covering 63 yards, to make it 28-23 at t he half.

Southeastern Oklahoma made it 35-23 on Sioson’s 16-yard touchdown pass to Foster with 10:16 left in the third quarter, setting up a wild fourth quarter in which the teams combined to score 48 points.

SAU regained the lead with two quick scores in the fourth quarter. Tate Mustin recovered a fumble in the end zone for a touchdown

HOGS Continued from Page 7promising start going into Little Rock.

“What I guarded against is all of a sudden everybody thinks you’re not the bottom of the cel-lar anymore and all that jazz,” Bielema said. “I do think that was a good team that we beat, but on the same account, Samford , a team that beat a FBS team and is going to come in with a lot of confidence into Little Rock.”

Bielema said his never chang-ing pregame motto is: “No doubt you respect all opponents and you fear none.”

Certainly the Razorbacks should respect Samford’s special teams which were especially ef-

fective against Georgia State.“They had a kickoff return

that went the distance,” Bielema said. “They had a nice, big punt return. They blocked a punt.”

Some Bulldogs that Razor-backs especially praised stand-ing out on game film are running back Fabian Truss, quarterback Andy Summerlin, middle line-backer Justin Shade and free safety Jaquiski Tartt.

Bielema called Tartt “as good as anybody out there right now.”

Bielema said the Bulldogs committing but four penalties showed their offensive and de-fensive efficiency.

They were especially efficient

given their head coach, former Auburn Heisman Trophy quar-terback Pat Sullivan, wasn’t at the Georgia State game and won’t be in Little Rock Saturday as he recovers from major back surgery.

Defensive coordinator Bill D’Ottavio ably handled last week’s assignment and is acting head coach this week, too.

D’Ottavio knows unlike last week, this is a true David vs. Go-liath test for the Bulldogs play-ing for today’s pay day guaran-tee that helps fund their entire athletic program.

“I think as a competitor you look forward to big challenges and great challenges as both

athletes and coaches,” D’Ottavio said. “These kind of games are that type of situation. It’s fun to play in these big venues in a his-toric place like Little Rock. We look forward to these kind of games.”

It’s Bielema’s hope that by the fourth quarter the Bulldogs just look forward to the game being over like he felt the fading Ragin’ Cajuns were getting physically pounded during last Saturday’s sizzling heat.

“I don’t think Louisiana-Lafay-ette was really enjoying that sec-ond half,” Bielema said. “I think our guys were. I think that’s a really good thing.”

JUNIORS Continued from Page 7convert its 2-point conversion to take a 14-6 lead.

Arkadelphia responded with a long scoring drive and 2-point conversion to tie the con-test at 14-14 at intermission. The Junior Cards came out in the third quarter and scored with Jonathan Turner going in from six yards out. The ensuing 2-point conversion was good to give the visitors a 22-14 lead.

After both teams were able to get stops on defense, Camden Fairview’s Jared Fitzgerald blocked a punt which Chris Hargraves was able to scoop up and score from 40 yards out with. Another 2-point conversion pushed the lead to 30-14, and Coker said the coaching staff cleared the bench to get everyone some playing time.

“We looked pretty good in this game too,” Coker said. “With the starters out, we found we had some kids that can fill in and do the job. Shaffer did a really good job of making some reads and checks at the line, and Mark Smith, who just joined us from Alabama, came in and made some good passes and played well too. Even for junior high, we actually do a lot, and he’s learning the offense.”

The Junior Cardinals will now travel to El Dorado on Thursday for games starting at 5:30 p.m. On Sept. 16, the Junior Cardinals will host El Dorado for an 8th-grade “B” game, starting at 5:30 p.m.

SAU Continued from Page 7with 14:43 to play to pull SAU within 35-30, and the Muleriders retook the lead 36-35 on Johnson’s 21-yard with 12:50 left.

Siosin threw his second touchdown in the final quar-ter, hitting Gale for 11 yards with 11:25 to play to make it 42-36.

Wortham added a 1-yard touchdown run for South-eastern Oklahoma with 7:53 to play made it 49-36.

SAU’s Johnson scored on a 2-yard run with 4:22 left and the Muleriders kicked the extra point to make it 49-43.

Wortham capped the Sav-age Storm’s scoring with an 87-yard touchdown run with 1:34 to play to make it 56-43.

Sykora added his third touchdown pass to Terry, this one for 14 yards, to pull SAU to 56-50 with 1:03 to play.

The Muleriders never saw the ball again, however, as Southeastern Oklahoma ran out the clock.

SW OK STATE 27,HARDING 23

Southwestern Oklahoma quarterback Dustin Stenta led his team on a 44-yard drive and scored on an 8-yard run with 1:13 left as the Bulldogs edged Harding in a Great American Confer-ence game at Fast Lane Field in Weatherford, Okla. Hard-ing (0-1) led 23-20 with 8:48 remaining after John Gay kicked a 34-yard field and forced a punt on Southwest-ern’s next possession, but the Bisons fumbled a center-quarterback exchange while attempting to run out the clock to give the ball back to the Bulldogs.

Southwestern took over at the Harding 44 with 3:02 left in the game and put together a 12-play drive that led to the winning touchdown. Hard-ing had one final chance to score and moved to the Bull-dog 34 with 53 seconds left in the game, but quarterback Jacob Moore’s pass into the end zone fell just short of re-ceiver Donatella Luckett.

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Au-burn coach Gus Malzahn might as well be singing his own prais-es when he calls Arkansas State “one of the hottest teams in col-lege football.”

Malzahn led the Red Wolves through most of their cur-rent nine-game winning streak

and to a Sun Belt Conference championship last season, so he knows about their personnel and personality going into Sat-urday night’s game.

“They know how to win, and they expect to win,” Malzahn said.

That’s the mentality he’s try-

ing to cultivate for his new team, too.

The Tigers (1-0) and Arkan-sas State (1-0) both are led by coaches who made their reputa-tions as offensive coordinators, Malzahn at Auburn and Tulsa; Arkansas State’s Bryan Harsin at Texas and Boise State.

Malzahn calls Harsin “one of the better offensive minds in all of college football.” He said he and Harsin visited to talk offense in 2007, when Malzahn was at Tulsa. Nevertheless, both relied heavily on the running games instead of new starting quarterbacks in their openers.

Yesterday's Cryptoquip: Classic song about a once-virtuous person and his rapid fall from grace: “Saint Misbehavin’.”

Today’s Cryptoquip Clue: K equals R

The cryptoquip is a substitution cipher in which one letter stands for another. If you think that X equals O, it will equal O throughout the puzzle. Single let-ters, short words and words using an apostrophe give you clues to locating vowels. Solution is by trial and error.

Sudoku is a number puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The goal is to place the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each column and each 3x3 box contains each number only once. The difficulty level increases from Monday to Friday.

For Saturday:ARIES (March 21-April

19): Stay mellow, take one step at a time and refrain from making assumptions. Positive thoughts and ac-tions will bring far better re-sults than emotional jealou-sy or possessiveness. Offer passion and love and avoid emotional madness. ***

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A sudden change of plans or uncertainty regard-ing work or money should be dealt with smartly. Dis-cuss your intentions and what you would like to see unfold with someone who can help you turn your plans into a reality. ***

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Let your actions speak for you. The personal changes you make will help you convince others to get involved in your plan to ensure your success and greater opportunities ahead. Love and romance are in the stars and will brighten your

day. ***** CANCER (June 21-July

22): What you think and what is actually happening will lead to confusion. You’ll end up in a vulnerable posi-tion or at a loss if you don’t take baby steps. Budget your time and money carefully. Size down or cut corners wherever possible. **

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t let obstacles frustrate you. Anger and revenge will not satisfy you, but success will. Put your energy into making personal alterations to your current surround-ings and friends. New peo-ple, places and interests will lead to positive results. ****

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t let what’s hap-pened in the past drag you down. Focus on the future. Discipline and looking at the big picture will allow you to find suitable solutions to any negative encounter you face. Think, see and do. ***

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.

22): Emotions will be dif-ficult to control. Keep busy -- a physical challenge will help bypass trivial annoy-ances that you will face if you have too much idle time. Personal relationships must be handled with passion and mindfulness. ***

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Get involved in activi-ties or events that will make a difference. Fight for your beliefs and you will eventu-ally be victorious. A trip will give you a chance to see how others live. Observe and ask questions. ***

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Listen carefully to what’s being said before tak-ing part in the conversation. You’ll be led astray with in-nuendoes and false hope. Do your part to ensure that you get what you expect. Control the outcome by be-ing a participant. Love is on the rise. ****

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Look at what you

can do. Accept the inevita-ble and follow through with what you know you can ac-complish on your own. Discipline, courage and de-termination will help you excel. Don’t let a love rela-tionship cost you. Put your needs first. **

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Make a decision that will change your per-sonal, financial, emotional or physical life. Take the steps required to raise your standard of living and make room for romance and com-mitment. Embrace a partner-ship passionately and your life will improve. *****

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A change in a relation-ship you have with some-one must not be blown out of proportion. Practical reasons will be behind the decisions made, making it important for you to honor the rights of others as well as doing what’s best for you. ***

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration is considering a plan to use U.S. military trainers to help increase the capabilities of the Syrian rebels, in a move that would greatly expand the current CIA training be-ing done quietly in Jordan, U.S. officials told The Asso-ciated Press on Thursday.

Any training would take place outside Syria, and one possible location would be Jordan.

The officials said no deci-sion had been made, but that discussions were going on at high levels of the govern-ment. It comes as the Obama administration prods Con-gress to authorize limited military strikes against Syr-ian President Bashar Assad’s government in retaliation for a deadly Aug. 21 chemi-cal weapons attack.

The proposal to use the U.S. military to train the rebels — something the administration has resisted through more than two years of civil war — would answer the demands of some lawmakers, including Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., to do more to train and equip the Syrian opposition. Presi-dent Barack Obama in June decided to provide lethal aid to the rebels, but so far none of that assistance has gotten to the opposition.

Officials said Thursday that talk about a military training mission has increased but that there have been no spe-cific Pentagon recommenda-tions forwarded to the White House on how big it should be or how many troops it should involve.

The CIA has been training select groups of rebels in Jor-dan on the use of communi-cations equipment and some weapons provided by Gulf states. The new discussions center on whether the U.S. military should take over the mission so that hundreds or thousands can be trained, rather than just dozens.

The officials spoke on con-dition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the plan publicly.

Any new training program conducted by the U.S. mili-tary would take time to put in place and likely would not begin until after any poten-tial military action had been taken in response to the re-cent chemical weapons at-tack. It would require get-ting approvals from the host country, finding appropriate locations, getting the right number of personnel in place to conduct the training and setting up a vetting sys-tem to insure that instruc-tion was not provided to any rebel groups that may not be friendly to the U.S.

The Pentagon already has at least 1,000 troops in Jor-dan, including trainers work-ing with Jordanian forces. The U.S. left about a dozen fighter jets and a Patriot missile battery there after a recent training exercise.

Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has told Congress that the U.S. military would be prepared to do more training for the Syria oppo-sition if needed.

In response to questioning

Wednesday during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Syria, Dempsey said he was “mostly support-ive of helping the opposition by their development, by their training and equipping, not by becoming their military arm.”

He provided more details in a July letter to Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., the chair-man of the Senate Armed

Services, in which he laid out military options in response to the chemical weapons at-tack. That letter was sent be-fore Obama announced plans to go to Congress to seek authorization for military strikes in Syria that would be limited in time and scope and would involve no U.S. troops on the ground there.

He said the U.S. could pro-

vide between several hun-dred and several thousand trainers, with a cost of as much as $500 million a year, depending on how large the training mission became. Noting that it would require using “safe areas” outside Syria, he said the risks in-cluded “extremists gaining access to additional capabili-ties, retaliatory cross-border

attacks, and insider attacks or inadvertent association with war crimes due to vet-ting difficulties.”

In hearings this week, some members of Congress complained that the Obama administration has not done enough for the rebels, while others strongly opposed any American military in-volvement in Syria.
