County makes progress on payments

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Alcorn County continues to make progress catching up on payments to outside agencies.

As of Tuesday, allotment payments are complete through

December with the exception of those considered the “large” payments to organizations such as the airport. The Board of Supervisors approved the claims docket for Dec. 19 to Jan. 3 in Tuesday’s meeting.

“We are paying the December payments to the large ones on the claims docket we just approved,” said Chancery Clerk Greg Younger, “and the small ones like the animal shelter and the incubator, we are paying

them their January amounts.

So, we’re going to be caught up to date on everything except for the large allotments.”

Some payments had been held back as the county scrapes by until the months of better

cash flow.

J.A. celebrates sold-out ball

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

It was a New Year’s Eve to remember as approximately 400 guests turned out for Junior Auxiliary of Corinth’s 55th Annual Charity Ball.

Dressed to the nines despite the tumultuous downpour, ballgoers donned sparkling gowns and dapper tuxedos as they enjoyed a fabulous sit-down din-

ner courtesy of Jerry Tyson.

Inspiring everyone to get up and dance, “The Midnighters”, a six-piece Soul band from Muscle Shoals, Ala. transported guests back to 60s and 70s through music from noted entertainers like the Emperors of Soul – “The Temptations”. The fun dance band then brought listeners into the 80s and 90s with favorites from

celebrated artists like Michael Jackson and Prince.

Moved to the point of great emotion, long-time educator Barbara Trapp humbly accepted her award as J.A.’s 2017 Outstanding Citizen of the Year.

Women form bladder disease support group

Mississippi lawmakers celebrated their first day of the 2017 Legislative session on Tuesday by toasting to 200 years of statehood.

On December 10, 1817, Mississippi was officially recognized as the 20th state in the United States of America. In 2017, the state will have the unique opportunity to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Mississippi’s statehood with a reflection on Mississippi’s history and culture. Events will be held throughout the year honoring the people and places, music and food, achievements in agriculture, science, and industry, sports legends, literary and artistic genius, and more.

Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves and Speaker of the House Philip Gunn hosted the reception to highlight community events, many of which are supported by a grant program created last year by the Legislature.

Mississippi became the nation’s 20th state on Dec. 10, 1817.

“Bicentennial celebrations are an opportunity to showcase our small towns and their cultural contributions to visitors from around the world,” said Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves during Tuesday’s reception from the state capitol. “Our state is home to sports giants, lit-

“Celebrating our state’s 200th birthday is a great opportunity for us to show the country why we love our state. I am proud to be a Mississippian and this year we all get the opportunity to celebrate all the reasons we love the Magnolia state.”

A pair of local ladies who are suffering from a debilitating bladder disease have formed a new support group to help others facing a little understood illness.

The first meeting of the North Mississippi Pelvic Floor Pain Support Group will be held at the Corinth Library beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday.

The group will offer support for people who are suffering from Interstitial Cystitis — commonly called I.C., or pain-

ful bladder syndrome.

Rosa Harville and Bonnie Mitchell, R.N., are the founders of the group. They both have struggled to live a normal life while dealing with I.C. “We’re hoping that through this group we can help men and women keep from going through the suffering that we did while searching for the help,” said Harville. “We can share with them what we have been through and what has worked for us. We’re not here to give medical advice to Please see SUPPORT | 5A

Malina Hunt has worked at Corinth’s Salvation Army since August, but she is looking forward to getting back in school and working toward her dream job. Hunt, 19, plans to become a forensic toxicologist — one who uses toxicology and other scientific disciplines to aid medical or legal investigations of death, poisoning or drug use. “I already went to Northeast and studied art, but I wasn’t interested in it, so I took a year off to figure out what I wanted to do,” Hunt explained. “The whole year, my mom was like, ‘You’re never going to go back,’ and I’m like ‘I am!‘ — and I finally figured out what I wanted to do.” One inspiration for her decision is the character Donald “Ducky” Mallard, a forensic toxicologist on the popular crime show NCIS. Hunt also enjoys solving puzzles and spending time with her friends.

BALL CONTINUED FROM 1A

Basket Fund nears $16,000 The 21st Annual Corinth Rotary Club/ Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket has grown to $15,757.

A $23,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 17.

The baskets were given away on faith the goal will be reached.

Recent donations include $50 from Hazel M. Lee; $100 from Barbara Horn; and $250 from Bell Gas Co. in honor of T.L. Sweat.

Christmas Basket Fund donations can be made “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special person or persons. The tribute will be published in the Daily Corinthian.

The special fund will remain active as long as donations continue to arrive.

All donations into the new year will be recognized.

Donations can be brought by the newspaper office or mailed to: Daily Corinthian, Attn.: Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835.

you spent with me in class each day,” said a tearful Trapp. “I am flabbergasted and honored to receive this award, but I don’t deserve it. I have been privileged to get to do what I love for all these years.”

Described by her friends, family, colleagues and students as a tireless, selfless individual with a huge heart for others, Trapp received as standing ovation as she was praised for going above and beyond to help others both in her classroom and her community.

Complete with a whimsical photo booth courtesy of Bill’s Images by Photographer Bill Avery, attendees had the option to choose four different backdrops for their photographic memories with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit J.A. Jonathan and Ashley Rider, owners of Crossroads Limousine, were on hand to ensure that attendees were able to indulge and enjoy their night responsibly.

“We are so thankful that this year’s ball sold out,” said Charity Ball Chair Marley Ashe. “Thanks to the generosity of our patrons and community, we were able to help clothe over 300 school children this past year and award 13 scholarships to deserving local students pursuing college and post graduate degrees.”

Chosen through a random drawing from among the 2017 Living Ads, Corinth High School Senior Leah Manus was awarded a $1,000 J.A. scholarship to help further her education. The announcement was made following the presentation of the Living Ads which was emcee’d

by Bill and Karen Terry.

Edi Williams was announced as the winner of the Yeti Hopper 30 Soft-side Cooler while Corey Jones got to take home his choice of one of three firearms from the raffle.

In addition to providing scholarships and clothing for school children, guests at this year’s “In the City” themed New Year’s Eve ball also contributed to the purchase of blankets and sleepers for over two hundred babies born at Magnolia Regional Health Center to needy

200TH families as well as countless hours of support and educational activities for hundreds of local children.

“Thank you for your generosity,” said Ashe. “We are honored, thankful and overwhelmed by the support the community has shown.

Some were skeptical about mixing it up this year, but we’ve gotten some really positive feedback from those who attended and feel like it helped our local businesses at what is normally a slow time of year for most.”

“Not only did the date change help put money back into our community through our local businesses, but it also made quite an impression upon guests. “Many have asked our Charity Ball Co-Chair Michelle Brooks to consider keeping in on New Year’s Eve when she is chair next year.”

Featuring tall arrangements of hydrangeas and glittering gold branches by Ashley Grimes, the upstairs banquet room of the Shiloh Ridge Athletic Club was cast in an ambient glow with a mix of glitter and mercury glass votives. Two impressive city skyline silhouettes built by Landon Ashe served as stunning focal points.

Keeping it simple, yet elegant, the ladies of J.A. took a less-is-more approach when it came to this year’s decorations, adding a few unexpected touches and the glitter and sparkle visitors would expect from a New Year’s Eve bash “In the City”.

Tuning into the “Big Apple” ten minutes prior to the New Year’s Eve countdown, a big screen streamed the festivities live from New York City’s iconic Time Square as a million or so revellers gathered on the streets to watch the traditional ball drop.

Mouthing the words to “Auld Lang Syne”, guests clinked their champagne flutes for a special midnight toast and exchanged celebratory kisses with loved ones before heading to the patio to enjoy the dazzling pyrotechnics as the “Midnighters” played one last song to cap the night.

“It was the perfect night,” said Ashe. “We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.”

Across the Region Tishomingo County Driver arrested after traffic stop TISHOMINGO COUNTY — Tishomingo County Sheriff’s Deputies arrested a Dennis man last week after a traffic stop.

Deputies attempted to make a traffic stop due to witnessing a vehicle swerving in the roadway around the area of County Road 90 in Tishomingo County on Dec. 28. As deputies attempted to stop the vehicle, the driver threw an item out the window, according to a report issued by the sheriff’s office.

Once the item was thrown from the vehicle, the suspected vehicle stopped for law enforcement. The deputies approached the vehicle and spoke with the driver. While the deputy was speaking with the driver, the other deputy walked back to where the item was last seen being thrown from the window of the suspects’ vehicle. The deputy retrieved the item, which appeared to be a large amount of some alleged methamphetamine, according to the report.

The driver, Billy Don Hall, 34, of 30 County Road 42 in Dennis, has been officially charged with possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine) with an intent to sell.

Hall also has a hold placed on him by the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

Hall is awaiting bond to be set by Justice Court on his drug charges and remains in custody of the Tishomingo County Jail.

sharply for the month of November.

The county’s unemployment rate dropped from 5.4 percent in October to 4.9 percent in November, according to the latest figures released by the Mississippi Department of Employment Security.

The drop matched a fall in unemployment statewide. Mississippi’s statewide rate fell from 5.7 percent in October to 5.2 percent in November.

Prentiss County had the sixth lowest rate among immediately surrounding counties. Union County posted the lowest rate in the area at 4 percent, followed by Lee at 4.4 percent, Itawamba at 4.5 percent, Tippah at 4.7 percent and Alcorn at 4.8 percent. Prentiss was next at 4.9 percent. Tishomingo County had the highest rate in the area at 5 percent.

McNairy County Deer killed; reward offered for information McNAIRY COUNTY, Tenn. — Landowners Anthony Wright and Pamela Mansfield have raised animals on their more than 40 acres in Adamsville for as long as they can remember, reported WBBJ-TV. They said they never worried about the safety of their livestock until a deer was shot and killed Christmas Day on their property.

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is investigating the incident. The landowners are offering a $1,000 reward for information about the suspect.

Wright said the suspect was in what appeared to be a latemodel, black Ford Mustang.

He said the buck grew up on their property and got along with their livestock and that many people in the area knew

the buck as the “community deer.”

Sam Bedwell with the TWRA says though it’s not common, riding around and killing deer is a method some poachers use.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the TWRA at 731-423-5725.

Russellville Tishomingo man faces sex charges RUSSELLVILLE, Ala. – A Tishomingo County man is facing charges after he was accused of texting a friend photos taken of a five-year-old girl, reported WTVA-TV. Franklin County, Alabama investigators have charged Marcus Paul Smith, 31, with two counts of production of child pornography and one count of sexual abuse of a child under the age of 12.

Smith is accused of taking photos and video of the child while he was visiting.

Columbus Hospital limits pain prescriptions COLUMBUS (AP) — A hospital emergency room in Columbus is limiting pain medication doctors and nurses give to patients with chronic pain complaints.

The Dispatch reports the policy goes into effect Tuesday at Baptist Memorial HospitalGolden Triangle and is in response to the nation’s opioid epidemic.

ER Doctor Joel Butler says the policy is in line with recommendations from the Center for Disease Control that medications are best dispensed by a patient’s regular physician who sees that patient on a regular basis.

Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Archie Williams says addicts and dealers often get pills by going to an emergency room and complaining of some type of pain.

Butler says patients who come in with acute pain, such as broken bones, will still get whatever medication they need.

Corinth, Miss.

Obama to Israel: Drop dead A headline that would become famous appeared in the New York Daily News in October 1975 after then-President Gerald Ford denied federal assistance to spare the city from bankruptcy. It read: “Ford to Cal City: Drop Dead.”

President Obama has told Thomas Israel much the same. By inColumnist structing his U.N. ambassador not to veto a resolution condemning Israel for building so-called settlements on disputed land, the president has aided and comforted that nation’s enemies.

The U.S. abstention will inevitably invite stepped-up attacks against Israelis, as well as calls for more boycotts by the European Union, whose ugly anti-Semitic past and present is well documented.

In the Middle East, this symbolic act will send a strong message to Israel’s enemies.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the resolution a “shameful ambush” and “distorted,” noting, “It states that the Jewish quarter and Western Wall (in Jerusalem) are occupied, which is absurd.”

Netanyahu, who has had a tense relationship with President Obama, suggested he expects better relations between the U.S. and Israel after Donald Trump becomes president.

Netanyahu likes to cite history to show how the Jews were in the land long before Arab peoples showed up and started rewriting the past to the point that it belongs in the fiction section of bookstores.

What makes anyone think that what Israel does, or does not do, has any effect on the behavior and declared religious mandate of those dedicated to eliminating the country and killing and/or expelling every Jew from it? Did unilaterally relinquishing Gaza bring Israel closer to peace? It did not. Instead, it invited Hamas to use the region as a launching pad for terrorist attacks. It is the same with agreements between Palestinian and Israeli leaders. Israel released terrorist prisoners and got more terror. Israel gave up land and got more terror. Only the deliberately blind and deaf who refuse to believe the stated and repeated goals of Palestinian leadership and much of the Arab world to eliminate Israel still think that the key to peace and stability lies solely with that country.

What kind of state would the Palestinians establish? Their leaders have already said it would be one without Jews. Netanyahu noted that in any other scenario this would be seen as “ethnic cleansing,” but because much of the world hates Jews and is embarrassed

by Israel and its prosperity, it applies a different standard to the Palestinians.

The late Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin once told me that while Israel needs friends, it could never fully trust any nation for its security. The Obama administration’s refusal to veto the U.N. resolution is more proof he was right.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says he will ask Congress to stop sending money to the U.N. until the resolution is repealed. His proposal is gaining support among some pro-Israel Democrats. Netanyahu has announced the termination of programs and aid to nations that voted in favor of the resolution and recalled some of his country’s ambassadors from those states.

At a time when Jews the world over are celebrating Hanukkah and the miracle of lights, Barack Obama has attempted to turn out the light on the Jewish state. Israel will survive, because it has survived worse than a U.N. resolution, but the action will only encourage her enemies.

The prophet Isaiah wrote: “Speak tenderly to Jerusalem” (Isaiah 40:2). The Psalmist said: “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem” (Psalm 122:6). In his final insult to Israel, President Obama has spoken harshly and ensured there will be more war, not peace.

The Nobel committee should demand he return his prematurely awarded Peace Prize.

Prayer for today Lord God, help me to see my mistakes, and bring me to the realization of my life. Grant that I may no longer use the time that thou gavest me to learn in, heedlessly, but to give it my best thought and care. Amen.

A verse to share Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.

—Colossians 3:9-10

Can Trump and Putin avert Cold War II? In retaliation for the hacking of John Podesta and the DNC, Barack Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats and ordered closure of their country houses on Long Island and Maryland’s Eastern shore.

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warned that 35 U.S. diplomats would be expelled. But Vladimir Putin stepped in, declined to retaliate at all, and invited the U.S. diplomats in Moscow and their children to the Christmas and New Year’s party at the Kremlin.

“A soft answer turneth away wrath, but grievous words stir up anger,” reads Proverbs 15:1. “Great move,” tweeted Presidentelect Trump, “I always knew he was very smart!”

Among our Russophobes, one can almost hear the gnashing of teeth.

Clearly, Putin believes the Trump presidency offers Russia the prospect of a better relationship with the United States. He appears to want this, and most Americans seem to want the same. After all, Hillary Clinton, who accused Trump of being “Putin’s puppet,” lost.

Is then a Cold War II between Russia and the U.S. avoidable?

That question raises several others.

Who is more responsible

for both great powers having reached this level of animosity and acrimony, Pat 25 years Buchanan after Ronald Reagan Columnist walked armin-arm with Mikhail Gorbachev through Red Square? And what are the causes of the emerging Cold War II? Comes the retort: Putin has put nuclear-capable missiles in the Kaliningrad enclave between Poland and Lithuania.

True, but who began this escalation?

George W. Bush was the one who trashed Richard Nixon’s ABM Treaty and Obama put anti-missile missiles in Poland. After invading Iraq, George W. Bush moved NATO into the Baltic States in violation of a commitment given to Gorbachev by his father to not move NATO into Eastern Europe if the Red Army withdrew.

Russia invaded Georgia in 2008, says John McCain.

Russia did, after Georgia invaded its breakaway province of South Ossetia and killed Russian peacekeepers. Putin threw the Georgians out, occupied part of Georgia, and then

withdrew.

Russia, it is said, has supported Syria’s Bashar Assad, bombed U.S.-backed rebels and participated in the Aleppo slaughter.

But who started this horrific civil war in Syria?

Was it not our Gulf allies, Turkey, and ourselves by backing an insurgency against a regime that had been Russia’s ally for decades and hosts Russia’s only naval base in the Mediterranean?

Did we not exercise the same right of assisting a beleaguered ally when we sent 500,000 troops to aid South Vietnam against a Viet Cong insurgency supported by Hanoi, Beijing and Moscow?

That’s what allies do.

The unanswered question: Why did we support the overthrow of Assad when the likely successor regime would have been Islamist and murderously hostile toward Syria’s Christians?

Russia, we are told, committed aggression against Ukraine by invading Crimea.

But Russia did not invade Crimea. To secure their Black Sea naval base, Russia executed a bloodless coup, but only after the U.S. backed the overthrow of the pro-Russian elected government in Kiev.

Has Putin no right to be concerned about his lost countrymen?

Unlike America’s elites, Putin is an ethnonationalist in a time when tribalism is shoving aside transnationalism as the force of the future.

In the new struggle we are in, the ethnonational state seems ascendant over the multicultural, multiethnic, multiracial, multilingual “universal nation” whose avatar is Barack Obama.

Putin does not seek to destroy or conquer us or Europe. He wants Russia, and her interests, and her rights as a great power to be respected.

He is not mucking around in our front yard; we are in his.

The worst mistake President Trump could make would be to let the Russophobes grab the wheel and steer us into another Cold War that could be as costly as the first, and might not end as peacefully.

Reagan’s outstretched hand to Gorbachev worked.

Trump has nothing to lose by extending his to Vladimir Putin, and much perhaps to win.

Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of the new book “The Greatest Comeback: How Richard Nixon Rose From Defeat to Create the New Majority.”

Schools, slush funds could be top topics this session OXFORD — It will be a short session, only 90 days.

Mississippi lawmakers will be back home while the azaleas are still in bloom, at least in some parts of the state.

What will make headlines? No one ever really knows for sure, but K-12 education is a safe bet.

House Speaker Philip Gunn, R-Clinton, says he wants to talk about campaign finance reform a bit more, too.

Three months ago, legislative leaders signed a contract with EdBuild, a new consulting firm that studies school funding methodologies.

The gist is that the leadership wants to explore alternatives to the Mississippi Adequate Education Program’s formula, set into law 20 years ago and provided with full funding only twice.

The formula was adopted in a year when the U.S. Department of Justice was threatening to sue Mississippi, as it had other states, for not equalizing funding between “rich” districts and “poor” districts. The formula does that. No suit was filed.

Formulas aside, K-12 education has steadily received more and more millions

while, in the big picture, lawmakers and the public have been less and less satisfied Charlie with results.

Mitchell Stories such as the Columnist F-rated Jackson Public Schools providing a $5,000 bonus to its superintendent and another $195,000 when he resigned last year don’t exactly build confidence that all is on the up and up.

There are great public schools in Mississippi, serving their mission against all odds. And there are some that are awful. The education lobby believes the role of EdBuild will be to serve as the experts upon whose advice charter schools will be expanded. The EdBuild chief says that’s not so, but the Legislature’s desire to contract-out education is no secret. Many districts outsource pupil transportation and food services, so why not the whole ball game?

Here’s why: The same “quality” factors infest the charter school world as the public school world. Some

charter schools fit the ideal: Dedicated, attentive, involved parents providing a nurturing learning environment. Some are corporate cash mills where profit maximization is Job 1 (and only).

Wise lawmakers will not jump on the bandwagon without copious research and incorporating safeguards as wells as best practices that have proven effective elsewhere.

During the 2016 session the state Senate passed some rules on how lawmakers handle and report campaign funds that aligned with federal rules. A somewhat shameful gutting followed in the House. Speaker Gunn says the topic will be revisited.

In truth, Mississippi’s system can be used by the dishonest to launder bribes.

Most ludicrous is that a candidate may obtain a credit card in the campaign’s name, use that card for any expense — prom dress for a child, birthday present for the spouse, vacation in Aruba — then report the total as “Visa bill.”

Itemization is not required, so no one can know how or where, exactly, donated funds were spent.

Lawmakers may also build up their campaign treasury with donations and keep the money when leaving office. Although the IRS would consider a cash-out as taxable income, a corrupt lawmaker could likely escape conviction by selling votes and using the campaign bank account to store the loot as a retirement fund.

Gunn told The ClarionLedger he wants both provisions changed. He’s to be commended for going on record supporting moves to, perhaps, add public trust in those who serve.

The push for campaign finance reform died in the House last year. (There was a voice vote on the floor, but no request that individual votes be recorded.) And it could again, despite what the leadership says should happen.

But it’s a new year. New start. Hope springs eternal that legislators, increasingly insistent that schools and school teachers be accountable, will choose to take a sip from that cup as well.

anyone. We do want to let people know there are others out there that suffer with this, and we understand their pain.”

Mitchell explained that I.C. is a chronic condition sometimes causing bladder and pelvic pain.

Symptoms range from mild to severe. There is pain in the pelvis and sometimes persistent urgency or need to go to the restroom.

“Frequent urination may be small amounts, because you void and feel like you have to go right back,” Mitchell said. “You have to go back and back.”

The Mayo Clinic documents frequent urination in small amounts during the day — possibly 50 or 60 times a day.

“It’s very debilitating, and it touches on every aspect of your life. Your work life. Your personal life,” said Mitchell. “There are so many events in our families that we’ve had to miss because of the pain.

You may wake up just feel horrible one day.”

Sometimes people have pain while the bladder fills and refills. All of the signs and symptoms of I.C. may resemble a urinary infection, but usually there is no infection.

“But if you have I.C. and you do have a bladder infection, the pain is usually much worse,” Mitchell added.

The condition consists of small lesions, cracks or ulcers on the inside of the bladder. The causes of the disease are currently not well understood, although research is ongoing. A combination of factors may contribute to the condition.

“For instance, people with I.C. may have a defect in the protective lining of the bladder, and that’s where the cracks come in. It may allow toxic substances in your urine to irritate the bladder wall,” explained Mitchell. “That’s where the acidic foods come in.”

Those suffering from I.C. should avoid carbonated beverages, many kinds of juices and even decaffeinated tea or coffee, which still contains the harmful acid.

“It gets so tiresome, just the eating and drinking,” said Harville. “Mostly my diet consists of Ensure, bread, potatoes and blueberries. Blueberries and pears are the only two fruits that don’t have acid.

And sometimes you’d just love to have some chocolate or coffee or something with tomato, but it’s just not worth the pain.

You want to be normal.”

Harville has struggled with I.C. for 11 years. In her case, the disease manifests itself primarily with pain and not so much the urgency to go to the bathroom.

“For me, it’s like sitting on a hot poker with someone twisting it inside

“It’s very debilitating, and it touches on every aspect of your life. Your work life.

Your personal life.”

Bonnie Mitchell, R.N. Co-founder, North Mississippi Pelvic Floor Pain Support Group you, and in the meantime squeezing your bladder while they’re doing it. You never know when it’s going to do it. You may be going along fine for a few weeks or months, but then when you develop a new crack, it starts all over again,” said Harville.

“There’s days I don’t have it, that I’m able to control it with the pain shield (a small device that emits heat in the effected area) and a low dose of pain med. I’ve come so far from the opioids and the fentanyl patch. I’ve taken everything trying to find some relief. Thankfully, I’ve had good doctors.”

Mitchell’s story with I.C. began six and a half years ago. An autoimmune reaction to chlorine seems to have triggered the condition.

“The Mayo Clinic says possible factors may include an autoimmune reaction, and we really believe that’s true. It’s the body attacking itself. Heredity can play a factor, infection or allergy,” she said. “I think I actually had an allergic reaction to chlorine.”

Mitchell and her husband had spent the day cleaning a vinyl fence around their horse pasture with bleach. Even after showering that night she could still smell bleach, she said.

“That night, my bladder was on fire,” she recalled.

“It was like somebody was lighting matches internally. It was horrible.”

After visits to a string of doctors in cities around the region — Memphis, Tupelo, Knoxville, Birmingham, Nashville and others — along with the passage of time and correct pain management, Mitchell eventually got a

little better. She decided to go in for some exercise at a rehab facility in Corinth.

“This year around March or April I started to feel more like myself after six years,” she said.

“I had gained quite a bit of weight. The Prednisone can make you retain fluid and give you kind of a moon face. I’ve changed quite a big since I’ve had this disease because of Prednisone and like medications that can make you retain water and gain weight.”

Part of the exercises at the rehab facility included swimming in a pool.

“I was in the pool about 45 minutes,” she said.

“The next day: On fire.

I’m crying. I’m ready to be put on hospice.”

Mitchell’s intense suffering lasted three and a half weeks.

“It was horrible,” she said. “God is the only reason it calmed down. And then I knew for certain.

Now I know it was the chlorine. So now I can’t be around chlorine, can’t come in contact with it.”

Mitchell said the disease has affected her social and work life.

“You name it, it touches aspects of my life,” she said.

Harville nodded her head in agreement.

“It dictates your life,” she said. “You think about it every day when you get up till you go to bed at night.”

A survivor Another local woman who has wrestled with I.C. is Jan Johnson, a lifelong resident of Corinth.

Johnson, who turned 73 on Christmas Eve, has battled the disease for over 37 years.

The years of pain and many unsuccessful medical treatments weigh heavily on Johnson. She is small and frail, and doesn’t get around as good as she used to. But one can hear an indomitable spirit in her voice when she speaks, her words slow and steady with the kind of Old South warmth one doesn‘t encounter often anymore.

Sitting in the den of her stately Reconstruction era home on the corner of downtown Corinth, the years of pain and struggle disappear from her face when she smiles, which is often when speaking of her family — three children, 10 grandchildren and a newly arrived great-grandchild. When thinking of her family she knows she is a lucky woman.

But Johnson’s history with I.C. is an epic tale of uncertainty, pain and loss.

“Oh, boy,” she said with a good-humored sigh.

“Have you got two or three days?”

At first the doctors she visited didn’t have a clue, she remembered. They would shake their heads and pass her on to another doctor.

“I would say I’ve been to at least — and I imagine it’s more — 30 doctors, at least, because they passed me from this one to this one to this one, hoping that somebody along the line would catch something,” said Johnson. “But they didn’t” Some doctors even told her there was nothing wrong at all. It was all in her head.

“Oh, boy, that was awful,” she recalled. “I said, ‘Well, okay. If it’s psychosomatic, send me to a psychiatrist. Let’s get it out of my head.’”

But the head doctor found no reason at all to

believe it was anything other than physical.

Johnson said it helped to find out she wasn’t crazy, but it really didn’t help much at all. It didn’t tell her anything. So Johnson was sent back to the doctors.

“After that, it was on and on and on. One would say, ‘Hysterectomy — that‘ll do it for sure.’ I had that. Well, I got worse.

Every treatment that a doctor would recommend would make me worse, and this last one was the biggest, and I’ve been out of society and everything,” she said. “I can’t do anything since this last one.”

For the first time, Johnson’s voice grows a little shaky while telling of the unscrupulous doctor who promised to make her “a new woman” but ended up destroying her life.

“He butchered me,” she said. “I call it butchery.”

From that point things have gotten worse. Now Johnson’s legs and feet are numb. She has dropped from her normal weight of approximately 115 pounds to 70 pounds.

“That’s not me,” she said. “I’ve always had to watch my weight and keep it down. Now I have this problem with my ears. I’ve got a heart problem, aspiration pneumonia that I keep — that came from it. It just goes everywhere.”

She said she has no idea how she has survived the 37 years of pain and failed treatments. Now her doctors are afraid to try anything new, with all the damage caused from past treatments that yielded no positive results.

“It just ruined my life,” Johnson said. “I love children more than anything in the world, and I was the happiest thing in the world when this hit me. It ruined my life.”

She looked around her beautiful old home, the long table in the dining room the setting for so many happy holidays in years past, and the good memories of years gone by stand up right next to the reality of what her life has become.

“I used to decorate and have more fun and bake, cook and have company, dress that table. I just can’t do a thing anymore,” she said.

Johnson said she read that a majority of the people who are stricken with I.C. eventually commit suicide. But this is one road she never intends to travel.

“Sometimes the pain is so bad. Being a Christian, it’s always a good thing when you die, you know?” she said. “And so I pray that I will die.”

She sat quietly for a moment then added, “I’m close to the time for death.”

Johnson said she does have hope for others struggling with I.C. She sees the formation of Harville and Mitchell’s new support group as a good way for other people to find some answers and get some support — something that very well could have drastically changed the course her life took 37 years ago.

“It will help immensely,” she said. “I really believe that it would have helped me if we had had one back then. I’m so glad they’re doing it.”

(The first meeting of the North Mississippi Pelvic Floor Pain Support Group will begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday at the Corinth Library. The guest speaker will be Dr. James Cole. For more information call Bonnie Mitchell at 415-8141 or Rosa Harville at 808462-0452.)

Legislators expect school debate

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS AND JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi legislators started their 2017 session Tuesday, and their main focus during the next three months could be trying to adopt a new school funding formula.

The current formula, called the Mississippi Adequate Education Program, was put into law 20 years ago but has been fully funded only twice.

Legislators hired a New Jersey-based consulting group, EdBuild, to recommend changes.

EdBuild CEO Rebecca Sibilia says she doesn’t anticipate recommending a reduction in spending.

But any changes would cause losses for some school districts and gains for others, unless lawmakers find money to increase total spending.

Legislators this session could also consider ways to put millions more dollars into highways and bridges amid pressure from business groups that say unsafe infrastructure

is an economic drag.

Speaker Philip Gunn, R-Clinton, gave a speech just after the House gaveled into session at noon Tuesday, noting that 2017 is Mississippi’s bicentennial year.

“Like our forefathers, we too have the privilege of shaping the future,” Gunn said. “Just like our forefathers, that task can appear daunting and we can grow apprehensive. But just like our forefathers, it is a great time of excitement and expectation.”

House Minority Leader David Baria, D-Bay St. Louis, said he’s hoping for a reduction in partisan acrimony that dominated the 2016 session.

“We’re going to try to find common ground where we can,” Baria said.

Although the opening day is usually devoid of work, Democratic Sen. Hob Bryan of Amory tried within the first few minutes to get the entire Senate to vote on changing part of a budget bill that was passed in the final days of the 2016 session.

He wanted to remove a

provision that banned any public money from being spent on the Mississippi Association of School Superintendents — a group that had criticized lawmakers for short-funding the public schools.

Bryan said the provision was put into the final version of a bill late during the 2016 session and was not fully debated.

Senators rejected Bryan’s attempt to get a vote Tuesday. Instead, his proposal will be sent to the Appropriations Committee for discussion later in the session.

Baria said Democrats are willing to discuss changes to the state’s education funding formula if they will result in improvements. However, he said Republicans should expect “some pushback” on their proposal to remove civil service protections from most state employees.

Rep. Kathy Sykes, DJackson, said she opposes changes to the school formula. “We have never given it the chance to work by fully funding it,” she said.

Mary Jane Armstrong, 71, of Corinth, died Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2017. Magnolia Funeral Home will have the arrangements.

and Lila Cardwell Kelley. She was a member of Chewalla Baptist Church and a homemaker who enjoyed quilting, playing the piano, flowers, watching TV and, most of all, spending time with her family.

Don’t fight the Fed For investors and potential homebuyers, financial pros have similar advice: Don’t ? worry too much about the Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate hike.

Last month, the Fed boosted the short-term rate it controls to a range of between 0.5 percent and 0.75 percent.

Fed policymakers say they expect to raise rates three more times in 2017, though that is never a sure thing. They predicted four hikes in 2016, but implemented only one.

Meanwhile, mortgage rates have risen sharply since early November, but for reasons that have little

2017

to do with the Fed: Rather, Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election has lifted expectations for faster economic growth and inflation.

That has pushed up longer-term interest rates, including the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate, which reached 4.3 percent in late December. Still, mortgage rates remain low by historical standards.

Some investment advisers recommend making few portfolio changes in the wake of the Fed’s move.

Others say the value of long-term government bonds could erode if the Fed keeps pushing rates higher.

Investors may want to hold shorter-term bonds instead.

Mortgage rates have risen but still low 8%

Deceased grandma still lives through grandpa’s deception D E A R ABBY: My mother-inlaw passed away two years ago from lung cancer.

My fatherAbigail hasn’t Van Buren in-law taken it well.

This year at Dear Abby Christmas he fabricated a letter and gifts “from her” for the grandkids, as if she had written the letter and bought the gifts before she passed away. He did it without my knowledge.

I am angry and upset that I was made part of this lie without my consent. I refuse to lie to my daughter about this and plan to throw the letter away. My daughter is 6 and doesn’t seem to understand. My husband doesn’t think it’s that big a deal and doesn’t know what he can do about it.

I loved my mother-in-law, but I’m tired of dealing with this. This is not the first strange thing my father-in-law has done. I feel like I get no support from my husband, who won’t ever say anything to his dad. Am I right in how I feel? -- DON’T WANT TO LIE IN OHIO DEAR DON’T WANT TO LIE: Of course you are right. Your fa-

ther-in-law appears to be grieving deeply for his wife, and he may not be able to work through it without the aid of a grief support group or a therapist.

You should also be aware that a severe emotional shock can sometimes cause the onset of dementia in older adults. If his strange behavior continues, then for his own sake, he may need to be evaluated by his doctor, and your husband would be doing his father no favors to ignore it.

DEAR ABBY: Over the years, we have helped out our daughters as much as we could. One daughter, “Doreen,” has needed more help than the others.

She has four children who are near and dear to our hearts.

They have been living with us the better part of their lives.

Doreen married a guy who is the father of three of the children. (I’ll call him John.) He’s in trouble with the law constantly and can’t hold a job.

After we moved them all in with us, John decided he wanted to move back home to his family, so he packed up everyone and left. We told Doreen we could no longer support them financially, and that if they wanted to move away, they would assume that responsibility.

Now she’s writing us saying

they can’t pay the rent and their electricity is being shut off. She wants us to “loan” them money.

We refused.

Now we can no longer talk to, text, write, Skype or communicate in any way with our grandchildren. The SIL says we lost that privilege. My wife is distraught. Can we fix this? Will our daughter come around? -- DISTRAUGHT IN FLORIDA DEAR DISTRAUGHT: You cannot fix what’s wrong with your daughter and her husband by giving them money, so you were right to refuse. They moved out with the understanding that your financial help would stop. Your daughter is now trying to coerce you into giving them money through emotional blackmail.

For your own sakes, I hope you will not give in to it because if you do, there will be no end to it.

As to whether your daughter will come around, it will happen as soon as she needs you because her husband has bailed on her.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Face and process your emotions in a controlled, safe environment -- home alone, writing in a diary or hitting the pillow or the punching bag. This will prevent your feelings from coming out in uncontrollable ways.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You feel nervous around certain people. Maybe it’s not as cute as it is in the movies. Maybe your body is really trying to tell you something about the dynamics of the relationship. Maybe your body is saying, “Run!” GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

When there’s no clear path, you either make one or turn around and go home. Much will depend on how important it is to you and yours that you reach the destination you had in mind.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Your worth isn’t tied to another person, no matter who -- no matter how powerful -- that person might be. Seize the opportunity to assert your independence, if only to prove to yourself that you’re whole on your own.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The

performer in you comes with a thicker skin than most -- part of the package deal. Because of this, you don’t realize how delicate some people’s feelings really are -- something to be extremely aware of today.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Of course you want fun; who doesn’t? But letting yourself have it whenever you want it is a recipe for weakness. Like a good parent, gently remind your inner child of the rewards for sticking to the job at hand until it’s done.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). To have a vendetta in your heart can be a very motivating and positive force if used correctly.

The “I’ll show you” energy is powerful. Just note: No one ever “showed you” by making bad, self-destructive choices.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

It’s not always the case, but today things will work when they’re right and they won’t work when they’re not right. Therefore, don’t spend a lot of energy on trying to make something work when it’s just not clicking in. Move along.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re in a mood to ignore what you need to do, but the fact that you need to do it doesn’t go away. Remember why. Remind yourself of the end goal. Want harder, and the motivation will come.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The silliness and absurdities of life don’t get past you.

Making someone laugh will be your specialty today, and it will make you happy to know you spread gales of joy across the heart of another.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

True, there’s much you have to fix and more you have to do, but don’t focus there if you can help it. Focus instead on growing what’s already going exceptionally well.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You’ve been known to lose track of what makes you happy. When something makes you smile and laugh, make a note. It will help remind you to make more of these moments happen. Plus, when you look back, you’ll relive the joy.

Kyle Busch Motorsports ready to let loose its stable of young, talented drivers in 2017

A trio of Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota Tundras run together in the Texas Roadhouse 200 on Oct. 29 at Martinsville Speedway.

Busch’s multi-truck team, which is backed

by Toyota and has a working relationship with Busch’s Cup car owner, Joe Gibbs, is the dominant organization in the Truck Series.

As such, it attracts many of the sport’s best up-and-coming drivers.

Erik Jones, who is set to join the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series next season and drive the No. 77 Toyota for Furniture Row Racing, won the 2015 Truck Series title in a KBM truck.

William Byron, who is set to move to JR Motorsports and a full-time ride in the Xfinity Series in 2017, led the Truck Series in wins with seven while driving for KBM in 2016.

Daniel Suarez, the reigning Xfinity Series champion, has raced for Busch, as have Darrell Wallace Jr., Matt Tifft and Christopher Bell, who will return to KBM’s No. 4 Toyota this season after a fairly successful rookie season.

Taking the seat in the No. 9 Tundra vacated by Byron is 18-year-old Noah Gragson.

some of the best young talent in all of NASCAR, and I know that I’m going to be stepping into fast Toyota Tundras that are capable of running up front, competing for wins,” Gragson said in a team release last fall announcing his hiring. “As an up-andcoming driver, that is all I can ask for as I try to continue my climb up the racing ladder with the ultimate goal of one day following in Kyle’s path from Las Vegas to the Cup Series.”

Recently, Busch announced the drivers that will share the No. 51 Toyota with him. He plans to drive five times himself with primary sponsorship from Textron Aviation, which will use the motorsports platform to promote its Cessna, Hawker and Beechcraft brands.

Busch will compete on March 4 at Atlanta Motor Speedway; May 12 at Kansas Speedway; May 20 at Charlotte Motor Speedway; July 29 at Pocono Raceway; and Aug. 12 at Michigan International Speedway.

The rest of the season will see the No. 51 driven by a mix of the kind of young talent

that KBM seeks to showcase.

Myatt Snider, the 22-year-old son of veteran NASCAR broadcaster Marty Snider, will run eight races with primary sponsorship from Southeastern Mills and its Louisiana Hot Sauce brand. Snider will run at Daytona International Speedway on Feb. 24 and focus on superspeedways before ending his season at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Nov. 17.

Snider shocked the racing world last year on May 22 by winning at Toledo Speedway in his first ARCA start. He made his truck series debut at Phoenix in November and finished 17th.

Also making some starts in the No. 51 is 16-year-old Harrison Burton, the son of former Cup driver Jeff Burton, who now is a TV commentator.

Young Burton will run six races, all on tracks one mile in length or less as NASCAR rules limit drivers his age to shorter tracks and road courses.

Burton’s six-race schedule begins April 1 at Martinsville Speedway, where he made his Truck Series debut last fall in a KBM Tundra.

He’ll also race at Dover International Speedway, Iowa Speedway, on the dirt at Eldora Speedway, at Bristol Motor Speedway and again at Martinsville on Oct. 28. Burton won three Super Late Model victories in 2016 and finished third in his ARCA debut at Iowa Speedway.

Todd Gilliland, the son of NASCAR veteran David Gilliland and grandson of retired driver Butch Gilliland, will run four races — at Gateway Motorsports Park in Madison, Illinois, on July 17; Canadian Tire Motorsports Park in Bowmanville, Ontario, on Sept. 3; New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sept. 23; and at Phoenix International Raceway on Nov. 10.

In 2016,16-year-old Gilliland won the K&N Pro Series West championship on the strength of six wins in 14 starts. He also won a K&N East Series race at New Smyrna Speedway in Florida to start the season.

Gilliland wound up winning his first four K&N starts, matching a 60-year-old series record held by the legendary road racer Dan Gurney.

In 2015, Gilliland earned a milestone record outright as he drove a Venturini Motorsports Toyota to victory in an ARCA race at Toledo Speedway to become the youngest winner in series history. He won that race two days after his 15th birthday.

Richard Childress Racing has announced its plans for 2017, which include three full-time Monster Energy Cup teams and five full-time Xfinity teams.

It’s the first time in the team’s history that RCR has fielded five teams in NASCAR’s No. 2 circuit.

On the Cup side, RCR will retain its 2016 lineup with Austin Dillon, the grandson of team founder Richard Childress, driving the No. 3 Chevrolet.

Veteran Ryan Newman will return to the No. 31 Chevy, while Paul Menard again will be in the No. 27 as the team seeks its first Cup win since the fall of 2013, when Kevin Harvick, who now drives the No. 4 Ford for Stewart-Haas Racing, won at Phoenix International Raceway.

Menard has one victory for RCR, at Indianapolis in 2011. Newman, a 17-time Cup winner, has not visited Victory Lane since moving to RCR at the start of the 2014 season, and Dillon has never won a Cup race.

Childress’ teams have had more success of late on the Xfinity side, with three wins in 2016 (two by Austin Dillon and one by Michael McDowell) and five in 2015 (four by Austin Dillon and one by Menard).

The Xfinity lineup for 2017 features the No. 2 and No. 3 Chevrolets, which will see multiple drivers. Austin Dillon and Paul Menard will be primary drivers for the No. 2, with Justin Alexander as crew chief.

Brandon Jones and Brendan Gaughan return as full-time drivers of the No. 33 and No. 62, respectively, and the team will bring back the No. 21 Chevrolet for Daniel Hemric, who will join the team and work with veteran crew chief Danny Stockman as he competes for both rookie of the year and the series championship.

Hemric spent the 2016 season in the Camping World Truck Series driving a Ford for Brad Keselowski Racing. He finished sixth in the final standings with 11 top-five and 17 top-10 finishes in 23 starts.

Richard Petty to be honored for his ’60s Truex Jr. named NASCAR’s top driver by regional press drag-racing achievements outside NASCAR NASCAR’s King, Richard Petty, is set to be inducted into the North Carolina Drag Racing Hall of Fame. The ceremony will be held on Feb. 18 at the 15th Annual Shriners Hot Rod & Drag Racing Expo at the Greensboro Coliseum.

In the mid-1960s, when NASCAR banned the 426-cubic-inch Hemi engine that powered his NASCAR cars, Petty briefly left the round tracks and campaigned his drag car, known as the Outlawed 43 Jr., a Plymouth Barracuda powered by the same banned Hemi engine.

From 1964 until 1966, when Petty returned to NASCAR after his engine again was allowed, Petty raced on drag strips across the country and was well paid by promoters who were able to cash in on his celebrity.

That part of his career also was visited by tragedy. During a match race against Arnie Beswick at a dragstrip in Dallas, Georgia, on Feb. 28, 1965, a part broke on Petty’s car and he veered into the spectator area. An 8-year-old boy was fatally injured after being struck by a wheel from Petty’s car.

NASCAR eventually agreed to let Petty and engine return to a series that had been dominated by Fords in his absence.

Richard Petty left stock car racing to compete in drag races nationwide in the mid1960s when his Chrysler engine was temporarily banned by NASCAR.

The Memphis track, formerly owned by Dover Motorsports and previously known as Memphis Motorsports Park, hosted 11 NASCAR races from 1998 to 2009.

The track’s first NASCAR race, for the Camping World Truck Series, saw Ron Hornaday Jr. take the win in a Dale Earnhardt Inc. Chevrolet.

The final event, an Xfinity Series race, saw Brad Keselowski outrun Kyle Busch for the victory.

After that, Dover closed the track, but in 2010 it was purchased by IRG Sports + Entertainment. In the years since, it has hosted drag races, some touring series events and the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience.

Riley Herbst, JGR prepare full-time ARCA campaign with new No. 18 team Riley Herbst, a 17-year-old short-track racer from Las Vegas, will race in the ARCA series in 2017 with backing from Joe Gibbs Racing.

Herbst is following in the tire tracks of his father and grandfather, Riley Herbst who raced in offroad racing events like the Baja 500 and Baja 1000. The youngster started in gokarts and also has raced Legends cars, Speed Trucks and Super Late Models.

“It’s great to have Riley join Joe Gibbs Racing,” Steve deSouza, Gibbs’ executive vice president of Xfinity/Development, said in a team release. “He has experienced success in a variety of racing venues, and we want to provide him the opportunity to continue that success at this level of competition.”

Herbst will drive a No. 18 Toyota Camry. His sponsor and crew chief will be announced later.

Michael Waltrip announces return to Daytona 500 Two-time Daytona 500 winner Michael Waltrip said via Twitter that he would be competing in this year’s season-opening Daytona 500.

“Yes! In the @AaronsInc @ToyotaRacing #Camry,” Waltrip posted in response to a query about the race.

There was no mention of which team would field his car.

With four Cup wins, five poles and a series-high 1,805 laps led, Martin Truex Jr. has earned the Al Holbert Memorial National Driver of the Year honors from the Eastern Motorsports Press Association.

Martin Truex Jr. “Martin had an impressive season, winning two of the triple crown events — the Coca-Cola 600 and Southern 500 (Darlington, South Carolina),” Earl Krause, a veteran motorsports journalist, EMPA board member and lead announcer at Pocono Raceway, said in making the announcement. “He nearly pulled off NASCAR’s version of the triple crown, but came up inches short of winning the Daytona 500. He also had exciting Chase victories at Chicago and Dover.”

Truex is a two-time winner of the award, having won previously in 2004 after winning the championship of the series now known as Xfinity.

“My racing roots are in the Northeast, and to be recognized by the EMPA takes on a special meaning for the entire Truex family,” Truex Jr. said in a release from the Furniture Row Racing team that fields his No. 78 Toyota. “My family has spent many days and nights racing at Northeastern tracks, and that’s why I always feel like I’m going home when the NASCAR series competes at Dover, Pocono and New Hampshire.”

After being off the NASCAR schedule for eight years, Memphis International Raceway will host a NASCAR K&N Series race on the 3/4-mile tri-oval on June 3, 2017.

Much like his team owner, Gragson is from Las Vegas and also started racing Bandoleros at the Bullring, the 3/8-mile paved oval outside Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Gragson moved to the K&N Pro Series West in 2015, and won rookie of the year honors as well as a feature win at Tucson Speedway.

Last year, he won four K&N races and made two Truck Series starts for KBM with a best finish of 15th in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Kyle Busch Motorsports

With the retirements of Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart, and several other established NASCAR stars on the verge of hanging up their helmets, the race is on to find the sport’s new stars.

Lately, the path to success in the upper divisions of NASCAR has been through the doors of Kyle Busch Motorsports, the Camping World Truck Series team owned

by Busch, who also races his own trucks at times. KBM also fields a fleet of asphalt Late Model cars that often are driven by talented youngsters in major short-track events.

Corinth splits; Biggersville sweeps Thrasher

BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

After a fairly successful trip to Kentucky last week , Corinth returned to friendlier confines Tuesday evening as they hosted Shannon in a huge Division 1-4A matchup at Warrior Gym. (G) Shannon 66 Corinth 51 Kristen Herman scored 14 first half points to help Corinth rally from a ninepoint first quarter deficit to a brief lead and a 30-30 deadlock at the break.

Then the Lady Raiders put a box-and-one defense on coach Fred Stafford’s girls and forced the ball into the hands of other CHS players not named Herman. Aday-

sha Spencer had some big moments for the Lady Warriors in the second half but SHS went back to their press and several blocks on defense to pull away late and defeat Corinth 66-51.

“We played really well in the second quarter but they (Shannon) went to the boxand-one and took Kristen out of the game and scored off their press,” said Stafford.

Herman still finished with a game-high 20 for CHS while Spence added 12.

(B) Corinth 58 Shannon 43 This was a must-see game if you follow division 1-4A because Shannon and Corinth are two very athletic and defense-minded basketball

teams.

The Warriors came in 4-0 in division play while the Red Raiders of coach Cedric Brim began at 2-0.

Shannon took a brief lead on Corinth mid-way through the first quarter but the Tribe bounced back and took a five-point lead at 17-12 before the Raiders closed out the first quarter with a basket and trailed by three at 17-14.

Coach Keith Greene’s CHS squad kept that lead in the second quarter while limiting SHS to eight second quarter points, and led 29-22 at halftime.

Jon D Warren was the sparkplug that fired the Warriors engine early and often

as he poured in 17 first half points, including a trio of three-pointers.

“This was a good win for us against a good team,” Greene commented.”Jon D really got us going early. We went cold to start the fourth quarter, but we finally got our rhythm back to pull away.”

“I’m very proud of our guys.”

Warren finished with a game-high 23 and Tada Stricklen was his usual steady self with an additional 16.

STARKVILLE — Avery Johnson Jr. and Dazon Ingram each scored 13 points to lead Alabama to a 68-58 win over Mississippi State in their Southeastern Conference opener on Tuesday night.

Riley Norris added 11 points and Alabama (85) out-rebounded Mississippi State 43-26.

Mario Kegler scored 12 points and Tyson Carter added 10 for Mississippi State (9-4).

“It was a little bit of a roller-coaster game for us but we will take it,” said Alabama coach Avery Johnson. “We got off to a slow start but found

a rhythm around the 15-minute mark of the first half. We just locked in, defensively, and that was fun to watch.”

Trailing by 12 at halftime, Mississippi State opened the second half on an 8-0 run and tied it at 44 with 9:30 left. Alabama then went on a 9-2 run and the Bulldogs got no closer than six the rest of the way.

“That was a tough loss and a tough way to start out the conference season,” said Mississippi State coach Ben Howland.

“In the first half we took 28 shots and 14 of them were 3-pointers.”

tendents who resign in the next three years.

In 2016, the Legislature enacted a law making all 55 elected superintendents appointed beginning in 2020.

Webster County Superintendent Jack Treloar, who was elected, resigned Dec. 31. House Education Committee Chairman John Moore, a Brandon Republican, says it would

House Bill 32 would allow school boards to appoint superintendents to fill any vacancy in the state.

Leek, sausage and split pea soup a winter week-night crowd pleaser

This makes a ton of soup, and you can freeze it at will. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of soup that sells itself, hits the spot, and has so much Ă&#x20AC;DYRU DQG VXFK D KLJK OHYHO RI FRPIRUW foodness that you instantly feel better about life while eating it.

If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overstating it, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry, but my family never can get enough of these beangrain-sausage concoctions. <RXÂśOO VHH WKDW WZR GLĚ&#x2020;HUHQW VWDUFKHV DUH called for: rice and Israeli couscous. There is no reason for this other than that I had a bit of couscous left, but not enough for the whole batch of soup. Also, I love soups with a bounce-up of textures in them.

Indeed, if you plan to serve a variety of dishes for the Super Bowl, sliders are more sensible than the full-sized guys.

But they happen to be a little trickier to cook than a standard-issue burger. The sliderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s size makes it tough to put a nice crust on the outside while ensuring that it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overcook on the inside.

Leek, chicken sausage and split pea soup

Serves 12 to 14 Start to finish: 1 hour 15 minutes 2 tablespoons olive oil 4 large leeks, white and light green parts, thinly sliced Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste 10 to 12 cups less-sodium chicken stock 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes 11/2 cups split peas 1 cup long-grain rice 1/2 cup Israeli couscous 12 to 16 ounces cooked chicken sausage, halved lengthwise and sliced To garnish (optional): Chopped fresh parsley Toasted pumpkin seeds

In a very large soup pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the leeks, season with salt and pepper, and saute for about 8 minutes until they are wilted.

Raise the heat to high, add 10 cups of the broth and the crushed tomatoes, and bring to a simmer. Add the split peas, return to a simmer, then lower the heat and simmer partially covered for 30 minutes.

Add the rice and simmer another 10 minutes, then add the couscous and sausage and simmer for another 20 minutes until the grains and the peas are tender.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid the PXVKURRPV JLYH RĚ&#x2020; has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms to the bowl with the onion.

Add the olives and chilies to the mushroom mixture. Set aside.

Some tips for reducing the sugar in your morning smoothie

BY MELISSA Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ARABIAN Associated Press

Associated Press

The smoothie has become ubiquitous because it makes healthy eating sound easy and attainable. But not all smoothies are equal. Just because something is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;green smoothieâ&#x20AC;? doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean that it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t loaded with sugar.

Here are some tips for reducing the sugar in your smoothie. First, get some creamy texture going from something other than the banana. If you add some other creamy items â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like some tofu, cooked white beans, or avocado â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you can reduce the banana to a small slice or two for a hint of sweetness without going overboard.

Second: freeze greens like spinach, sliced cabbage, or kale.

)UHH]LQJ PHOORZ WKHLU Ă&#x20AC;DYRU D ELW VR you can add them into smoothies for extra nutrition. Next, use frozen mixed berries to satisfy your sweet tooth â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they do have some sugar, EXW DOVR DGG ÂżEHU DQG QXWULHQWV Finally, boost your smoothie with some secret ingredients that fool your palate into thinking your food is sweeter than it actually is. Orange zest, cinnamon, almond extract, unsweetened cocoa, pumpkin puree and coconut oil are all great ways to SXPS XS WKH Ă&#x20AC;DYRU ZLWKRXW DGGLQJ extra sweeteners like honey or sugar.

Purple Power Smoothie Start to finish: 5 minutes Servings: 3 2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond/coconut milk 4 ounces soft silken tofu or about 1/3 of a package (alternatively, you can use protein powder, or a few

tablespoons of rinsed cooked white beans.)

1 cup frozen mixed berries 1/4 medium banana, frozen 3/4 cup shredded red cabbage 1/2 teaspoon orange zest 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/8 teaspoon almond extract 2/3 cup ice cubes Place 11/2 cups of the milk and the tofu in the blender and blend until smooth and no lumps remain, about 30 seconds. Add the frozen berries, banana, cabbage, orange zest, extracts, and ice cubes. Blend until smooth, about one minute. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a high-powered blender, then you may need to stop, stir and continue blending about halfway through. Once the mixture is well blended, add the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and blend just until all smooth. Serve.

Boyfriend needs to focus on relationship WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: What is wrong with me? I truly don’t know what to do. I have a boyfriend of five years, and for five years, I have watched him pursue his daughter daily.

He texts her several times daily.

He knows where she is every minute, whom she is with and what her plans are.

He would drive 45 minutes to walk her dogs for her because she is working.

He knows all her friends and stays in touch with them, too. He seeks them out if he goes back to where they used to live.

She was living with him when he and I met, but a year later, she got a place of her own.

However, several times since, she has moved in and out of his place. He always wants to save a place for her in church, and when she overslept and didn’t make it one time, he spent the entire service craning his neck looking for her. Their goodbyes resemble those said by people who may never see each other again.

Annie, this man and I are in our 70s. His daughter, who has never married, is 50. He and his ex-wife have been divorced for five years.

He and his daughter are very secretive about their

Dear Annie conversations, and I have no place in their life as a third wheel.

He still works a fulltime job in a very demanding position, but if he doesn’t see her at least once a week, he has withdrawals.

I am so mad about it that I refuse to marry him. I have talked to him about this till I am blue in the face, and he knows why I won’t marry him, as she will always come first. He just says, “She’s my daughter.”

I really don’t love him anymore, as I don’t see any future knowing he will drop everything to rush to her side for any reason. But walking out again is stressing me out, too. Any advice? — Third Wheel Dear Third Wheel: Your boyfriend is exhibiting signs of extreme codependency with his daughter.

That kind of toxicity can’t be contained to just one area of his life. It spills into all others, including his relationship with you. Therapy might help him change. But he doesn’t seem to want to.

You deserve much

better, and I think you know it. You would be happier on your own than witnessing this man obsessively try to control his daughter for the rest of his life. You are not a third wheel; you are a valuable and important human being.

Anyone who makes you feel lesser doesn’t deserve your time.

Dear Annie: This is a response to the letter from “Sudden Loss for Words in TN,” who asked about the best response to a suicide. My family has been through that situation.

The worst thing for the family are insensitive questions, spoken or implied.

For example, “Why?” “Didn’t you know?” “Why didn’t you do something?” You never know the depth of someone’s inner pain and struggle, because it’s not obvious.

The best thing is to remember something good about the person: “I remember when he and I...” “I remember when he...” That person had a life, even though it ended so unexpectedly. But the important thing is that he lived, not how he died. — Been There Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
