In its wake, rain and snow showers will linger as milder air filters in. Some of the snow that fell on central and northern New England will melt. Even warmer air is forecast to hold over the South, where temperatures are forecast to challenge record highs. Clouds, showers and thunderstorms will extend along a front stalled from coastal Texas to the Carolinas. Most areas from the Great Lakes to the central and northern Plains and the Southwest can expect sunshine.

Manning, who will leave prison in May, was one of 209 inmates whose sen- tences Obama was short- ening, a list that includes Puerto Rican nationalist Oscar Lopez-Rivera. Obama also pardoned 64 peo- ple, including retired Gen. James Cartwright, who was charged with making false statements during a probe into disclosure of classified information. "These 273 individuals learned that our nation is a forgiving nation," said White House counsel Neil Eggleston, "where hard work and a commitment to rehabilitation can lead to a second chance, and where wrongs from the past will not deprive an in- dividual of the opportu- nity to move forward." Manning, a former Army intelligence ana- lyst, has been serving a 35-year sentence for leak- ing classified government and military documents to the anti-secrecy web- site WikiLeaks. She asked Obama last November to commute her sentence to time served. Manning has spent more than six years be- hind bars. She was con- victed in military court in 2013 of six violations of the Espionage Act and 14 other offenses for leaking more than 700,000 docu- ments and some battlefield video to WikiLeaks. She was known as Brad- ley Manning at the time of her 2010 arrest and is being held at the mili- tary prison at Fort Leaven- worth, Kansas. Manning was an intelligence analyst in Iraq and has acknowl- edged leaking the docu- ments, but has said it was done to raise public aware- ness about the effects of war on civilians. FIREARMS Gun industry, suicide prevention forge unlikely alliance LAS VEGAS It's a difficult topic to discuss, fraught with politics and so- cial stigma, and an even tougher one to fix: people who kill themselves with a gun. But now two un- likely allies — the gun in- dustry and a leading sui- cide prevention group — are coming together to tackle it. It's a partnership that's been elusive, with the gun industry wary of encourag- ing a gun-control agenda and suicide prevention ad- vocates uncertain about diving into such a prickly political topic. But after nearly a year of phone conversations and meetings, the Na- tional Sports Shooting Foundation and the Amer- ican Foundation for Sui- cide Prevention discovered they had a goal in com- mon: preventing suicides. EDUCATION DeVos defends school choice when public schools are failing WASHINGTON Education secretary pick Betsy DeVos said Tuesday that Ameri- can parents must be able to send their children to high-quality schools, in- cluding charter, magnet and religious schools, if public schools are failing. Responding to fierce criticism from teachers unions that the Republican donor and school choice activist is working against public education, DeVos told the Senate Health, Ed- ucation, Labor and Pen- sions Committee that she will be "a strong advocate for great public schools." "But," she added, "if a school is troubled, or un- safe, or not a good fit for a child — perhaps they have a special need that is going unmet — we should sup- port a parent's right to en- roll their child in a high- quality alternative." RUSSIA Putin: Obama administration trying to undermine Trump MOSCOW President Vlad- imir Putin took a parting shot at the Obama admin- istration Tuesday, accusing it of trying to undermine Donald Trump's legiti- macy with fake allegations and "binding the presi- dent-elect hand and foot to prevent him from ful- filling his election prom- ises." In his first public re- marks about an unsub- stantiated dossier outlin- ing unverified claims that Trump engaged in sexual activities with prostitutes at a Moscow hotel, Putin dismissed the material as "nonsense." "People who order such fakes against the U.S. pres- ident-elect, fabricate them and use them in political struggle are worse than prostitutes," Putin said. "They have no moral re- strictions whatsoever, and it highlights a significant degree of degradation of political elites in the West, including in the United States." Separately, Foreign Min- ister Sergey Lavrov said the dossier, compiled by former British spy Chris- topher Steele, was a "rude provocation." The dip- lomat contemptuously called its author a "run- away swindler from MI6," Britain's foreign intelli- gence agency. Trump has rejected the sexual allega- tions as "fake news" and "phony stuff." The statements by Putin and Lavrov reflected the Kremlin's deep anger at President Barack Obama's administration in a cul- mination of tensions that have built up over the cri- sis in Ukraine, the war in Syria and allegations of Russian meddling in the U.S. election. 741 Main Street, Suite #2 Red Bluff, CA 96080 1-800-287-2187 (530) 527-2187 OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK www.redbluffcoldwellbanker.com See All Tehama County Listings at IfyouareConsidering Selling Your Home, Now is the Time!
