Vacant schools see more interest BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Mississippi Action for Progress has joined the groups seeking to use one of the three vacated elementary school
properties. In a special meeting of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen Tuesday afternoon, Regional Administrator Deborah Cooper said MAP is interested in com-
bining the Corinth and Kendrick Head Starts into one facility at the East Corinth campus. She believes it would provide “a more comfortable setting” for the students. Enrollment
is 56 at Kendrick and 57 at the Corinth center on Bell School Road, which is in a modular unit. The board is looking at selling portions of the properties that
would not be used by the interested groups, such as the south portion of the East Corinth property, where homes could Please see SCHOOLS | 3A

ACHS Drama Club stages Disney production BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
GLEN — A whole lot of dancing and singing will be going on at Alcorn Central High School. Members of the Central Stage are ready to cut loose when it presents “Disney’s High School Musical Jr.” on Thursday and Saturday night in the school auditorium. Performances are slated to begin at 7 p.m. both nights with admission being $5. “I was hesitant at first of doing it, but the kids wanted to do it so bad that I gave in,” said drama instructor Leanne Wil-
liams. Williams said the drama club strives to do a musical every two years. “This is a really good musical,” said Williams of the school’s production. “The message is about branching out and trying new things … it’s something I want to teach my students.” Senior cast member John Wiley Works took the advice of his teacher to heart. “I have been wanting to do theatre for a while,” said Works, who plays Troy in the musical. Works, a member of the
Bears’ basketball squad, is a good fit for the part. Troy is the captain of the East High basketball team who decides to audition for the upcoming school musical. “The musical is about being friends with everyone,” said Works. “High school students do not have to be involved only with certain cliques.” In the musical, Troy (Works) finds life isn’t just about athletics. East High learns the lesson in teamwork as Troy and the beautiful and brainy Gabriella Please see MUSICAL | 2A

Narcotics officers make meth arrest BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn Narcotics Unit have arrested a 47-year-old Corinth man for felony possession of methamphetamine with intent to sell. On Monday, officers with the unit found almost three ounces of meth along with scales and pipes used to smoke the drug at the home of Tommy Joe Driskell. “Cameras were covering the house and there were baggies with meth residue along with pill bottles with numerous scheduled pills in each,” said narcotics investigator Darrell Hopkins. A .22 pistol found at the 9 County Road 174, Corinth,
address enhanced the intent to sell charge. Driskell was also charged with two counts of sell of a controlled substance and Driskell felon in possession of a firearm. Bond has yet to be set for the man who remains jailed at the Alcorn County Jail. “Officers had purchased meth from him a couple of times and were monitoring his residence,” said Hopkins. The unit stopped Driskell during a traffic stop on Monday.

Government is top employer
CALENDAR CONTINUED FROM 1A
Associated Press
JACKSON — Government is Mississippi’s largest employer these days, state economist Darrin Webb told lawmakers Tuesday. That’s a big change from 20 years ago, when manufacturing held the top spot in the state. Mississippi lost manufacturing jobs in textiles and other industries after the North American Free Trade Agreement was put in place in the 1990s, Webb said.
He gave members of the House Appropriations Committee a chart that showed government employment in Mississippi has grown from about 200,000 jobs in 1990 to almost 250,000 in 2013. The government numbers include teachers and employees of local, state and federal agencies. Mississippi manufacturing went from about 225,000 jobs in 1990 to about 140,000 in 2013. The number of retail jobs
grew from about 120,000 in 1990 to about 140,000 in 2013. “We need more private-sector growth in job creation,� said House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville. State government employment has remained steady for the past decade, Frierson said, so most of the growth in government jobs has probably occurred on the local level.

The board accepted the $1.5 million grant for the Corinth-Alcorn Prentiss Early Learning Collaborative, which will go toward expanding and strengthening prekindergarten education in the two counties. The grant is expected to be available on

The district is also planning an education summit from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Jan. 23 at the Corinth High School Auditorium. State Superintendent of Education Carey Wright will be among the participants.
The group is going to make a difference, she said. “If what we do saves one person than all this work getting awareness out in the Crossroads has been worth it,� Lambert said. The calendars are $12. According to the
group’s Facebook, the local motorcycle awareness group was founded in 2013 and is made up of local riders working in the community to raise motorcycle awareness. “Our next big project is finishing up a motorcycle awareness film we’re been working on,� said Lambert. “The film
will be shown in Driver’s Ed classes in local high schools this fall.� (Calendars can be purchased at McPeters Funeral Home, Mug’s Custom Built Choppers in Farmington and East End Baggers in Savannah, Tenn. For more information, contact Lambert at 415-0818.)

Today in history Today is Wednesday, Jan. 15, the 15th day of 2014. There are 350 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 15, 1929, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was born in Atlanta.
On this date: In 1559, England’s Queen Elizabeth I was crowned in Westminster Abbey. In 1777, the people of New Connecticut declared their independence. (The republic later became the state of Vermont.) In 1862, the U.S. Senate confirmed President Abraham Lincoln’s choice of Edwin M. Stanton to be the new Secretary of War, replacing Simon Cameron. In 1919, in Boston, a tank containing an estimated 2.3 million gallons of molasses burst, sending the dark syrup coursing through the city’s North End, killing 21 people. In 1943, work was completed on the Pentagon, headquarters of the U.S. Department of War. In 1947, the mutilated remains of 22-year-old Elizabeth Short, who came to be known as the “Black Dahlia,” were found in a vacant Los Angeles lot; her slaying remains unsolved. In 1967, the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League defeated the Kansas City Chiefs of the American Football League 35-10 in the first AFLNFL World Championship Game, known retroactively as Super Bowl I. In 1973, President Richard Nixon announced the suspension of all U.S. offensive action in North Vietnam, citing progress in peace negotiations. In 1974, the situation comedy “Happy Days” premiered on ABC-TV. In 1989, NATO, the Warsaw Pact and 12 other European countries adopted a human rights and security agreement in Vienna, Austria. In 1993, in Paris, a historic disarmament ceremony ended with the last of 125 countries signing a treaty banning chemical weapons. Ten years ago: The NASA Spirit rover rolled onto the surface of Mars for the first time since the vehicle bounced to a landing nearly two weeks earlier. Five years ago: Congress cleared the release of the final $350 billion in bailout funds for the financial industry.
Cowboy church moves to Monday BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
WALNUT — Grace and Mercy Cowboy Church is attempting to lasso folks for the Lord on a different night. Grace and Mercy – part of the American Fellowship of Cowboy Churches – is saddling up at the new time in effort to reach more people, according to Bro. V.L. Gilbert. “The exposure in the area has
been good for us,” said Gilbert of the church which started in September. “We want people to come out and see what we are about.” Grace and Mercy, located at 44 County Road 772 in Walnut, originally began with a Sunday service. “We are looking to see what night will work for us,” said Gilbert. “I know several folks attend a regular church on Sunday and it should help us by moving to Monday night.”
The church started the new time the first Monday of January. “By having the cowboy churches all over the state, we can affiliate more people who are interested in church and who are Christian cowboys,” Gilbert said in an August interview with the Daily Corinthian. “We want people to just show up as they are and let’s have church.” For more information about the church call 865-582-1792.

be built. Actions that came from the meeting are for three aldermen to negotiate with MAP for a lease of the East Corinth property and to hire someone to subdivide the property; for three aldermen to negotiate with the Easom Outreach Foundation on a lease for the South Corinth property and to look at subdividing certain areas; and to explore the need for the West Corinth property to be rezoned due to the cultural significance of the land. Samuel Crayton, chair-
man of Easom Outreach, said the group’s feeding program has grown to 39 participants. Easom has operated out of the South Corinth building since last April. In response to the possible sale of parts of the South Corinth property, he said the appearance of the property does matter, and he is concerned the sale of any parcels along Cass Street would leave the group looking at the back of more fast food restaurants. Tom Bundy, superintendent of Shiloh National Military Park, said the park service’s
interest is as strong as ever in the West Corinth property, which includes battlefield land. Alderman Ben Albarracin wants a timeframe for action on the property, saying he doesn’t want to see the property go to the Friends of the Siege and Battle of Corinth Commission and then sit idle for 10 years. How the properties are disposed is one of the challenges for the city. Attorney Wendell Trapp said there are very limited circumstances in which the property may be donated. The city is also con-
cerned about whether the interested groups are going to have the financial resources to be able to maintain the properties. North Corinth Christian Academy also previously expressed interest in the East Corinth campus. The Corinth School District began moving old desks and other items out of the schools on Tuesday and putting the items in a warehouse. The district will likely take bids on the items. The quit-claim deed has been signed and all utilities turned off at the East and West campuses.
Coming up Alcorn County residents Randy Heil, Brian Turner, Nathan Stephenson and Greg Christian custom make about 1,000 muzzleloader firearms every year
to be sold across the United States. See Staff Writer/Photographer Steve Beavers’ story about Randy’s Muzzleloaders on Sunday in the Daily Corinthian.

MTV and teen pregnancies What music videos were to the MTV of yore, programs about single teenage mothers are to the MTV of today -- a staple. The network’s franchise of reality shows about teenagers coping with out-of-wedlock-births, beginning with “16 and Pregnant” and including the spinoffs “Teen Mom” and “Teen Mom 2,” has been a runaway success. It has given us such teen moms as Jenelle Evans, who alleged that her drug-abusing boyfriend beat her up, causing her to have a miscarriage. And Amber Portwood, who got out of jail on parole last year after serving time for drug charges Rich -- the latest in a string of trouLowry bles encompassing a suicide attempt and battery charges National for allegedly beating up her Review boyfriend. And, of course, Farrah Abraham. If you don’t know who Abraham is, you obviously haven’t been keeping up with Us Weekly. She didn’t tell her ex-boyfriend that he was the father before he was killed in a car accident. Her mother was charged with assault for hitting her. But never mind. Rocketed to D-list celebrity by her appearances on “16 and Pregnant” and “Teen Mom,” she got two breast augmentations, performed in a sex video and has now graduated to appearing on the VH1 show “Couples Therapy.” In other words, she is living the American Dream of pointless notoriety. For understandable reasons, the MTV franchise has been lambasted by cultural conservatives for glamorizing the lives of young women who have made desperately poor choices. But along come a couple of economists with a new paper on the social effects of the MTV shows to tell us that that gets it all wrong: The programs actually led, by their calculations, to a nearly 6 percent reduction in the teen birthrate between June 2009 and the end of 2010. Their analysis of all the episodes of “16 and Pregnant” finds 47 pregnancies, and only four marriages prior to birth. Almost all the fathers stay involved throughout the pregnancy, but by the end of the episodes, half the relationships are very strained or over. About a quarter of the births are by C-section, and the young mothers experience “extensive sleep deprivation.” This is not “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” or “The Bachelorette.” “Overall,” write the authors of the study, Melissa Kearney of the University of Maryland and Phillip Levine of Wellesley College, “the realities of the lives of teen mothers are presented in ways that may have been unknown or difficult to imagine for other teens viewing the show.” According to their findings, getting a dose of the reality of teen child rearing -- which means limited educational prospects and a high likelihood of poverty -changes the behavior of teens exposed to the shows. There are two things to say about this result. One is that it vindicates the commonsensical belief that pop culture has an impact on how we live. The entertainment industry celebrates itself as important and brave, but when anyone suggests that its stupid and degrading output might influence how anyone thinks or behaves, it retreats to the “it’s just a TV show or movie” defense. The other is that the trend toward everincreasing out-of-wedlock child rearing needn’t be accepted as inevitable. If MTV has inadvertently stumbled on a highly credible way to make the case to teens that the life of a single teen parent is to be avoided, then surely there are other effective ways to spread the word about the struggles inherent to out-ofwedlock child rearing more generally. (Teens under 18 account for less than 8 percent of all out-of-wedlock births.) As for MTV, it may create a mixed message. Another new study found that teenage viewers of the shows had unrealistically rosy views of single motherhood -- perhaps because after the travails depicted on “16 and Pregnant,” a few high-profile teen moms like Farrah Abraham graduate to the tawdry satisfactions of minor celebrityhood. It’s safe to assume that nothing good comes from MTV, except by accident. (Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com)
Prayer for today Loving Father, if I may be discouraged today, strengthen my faith. May I not weary of waiting for thee, but trust in thy promises. Amen.
A verse to share “Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” -- Proverbs 13:13
Christie, Hillary and Obama The first time I saw New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on television, a few years ago, my first reaction was astonishment: “A talking Republican!” It would scarcely have been more astonishing if there had been a talking giraffe. For reasons unknown, most Republican leaders seem to pay very little attention to articulation — certainly as compared to leading Democrats, who seem to pay little attention to anything else. Governor Christie’s nearly two-hour-long press conference last week showed again that he is in a class by himself when it comes to Republicans who can express themselves in the heat of political battle. When it comes to policies, I might prefer some other Republican as a 2016 presidential candidate. But the bottom line in politics is that you have to get elected, in order to have the power to accomplish anything. It doesn’t matter how good your ideas are, if you can’t be bothered to articulate them in a way that the voting public can understand. Chris Christie’s press conference showed that, unlike Barack Obama, Christie did not duck the media or sidestep questions. Nor did he resort to euphemisms or
cry out, like Hillary Clinton, “What difference, at this point, does it make?” Thomas He met Sowell the questions head Columnist on and gave unequivocal answers — the kind of answers that could, and should, destroy his political future if they are not true. More important, Governor Christie quickly fired the people he held responsible for deliberately creating a traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge. Contrast that with the many scandals in Washington for which President Obama has not fired anyone. While the creation of a traffic jam in a small New Jersey town shows the calloused ugliness too often found among political operators puffed up with their own power, this cannot compare with the threat to freedom when the Internal Revenue Service targets the administration’s political opponents during an election year. Nor can a traffic jam compare with the Department of Justice’s gun-running operation that led to the death of an American Border Patrol agent in the southwest
or the State Department’s actions and inactions that led to the deaths of four American officials killed by terrorists in Benghazi. Nevertheless, media coverage of the traffic jam in New Jersey was several times as extensive as any — or all — of these far more consequential scandals in Washington. Moreover, many of these media reactions simply assumed that Governor Christie must have known about the traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge. Does anyone who thinks that a traffic jam at the George Washington Bridge should attract a governor’s attention have any idea how many traffic jams there are on the various highways leading into Manhattan? The Long Island Expressway, for example, long ago acquired the title, “the world’s longest parking lot.” Traffic backed up heading into, or out of, the Holland Tunnel or the Lincoln Tunnel is nothing new. My recollections of driving on highways in and around Manhattan include very few memories of free-flowing traffic. Any governor who devoted his time to looking into traffic jams between New Jersey and New York would have very little time left for doing anything else.
If anything good comes out of this shabby episode of political vindictiveness by Governor Christie’s staffers, it showed what a skewed sense of perspective most of the media have on what kinds of issues are important. It is not that the media consider traffic jams more important than human lives. But the fact that Christie is the current frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016 — and is ahead of Hillary Clinton in the polls — makes him a target for a partisan media. Given that blatant partisanship, the need for a Republican candidate in 2016 who can make his case to the public, in spite of the media, is especially acute — even though it is much too early to try to predict who that candidate will be. Whatever the political fate of Governor Christie, he has provided an example of the kind of articulation that is needed — indeed, imperative — if the Republicans are to have any chance of rescuing this country from the ruinous policies of the past few years.

You got ‘TRBL’: Artist’s work doesn’t impress NEW YORK CITY — Artist Christopher Wool must be really good at texting. His stencil sign paintings, according to the Guggenheim Museum, “freely stripped out punctuation, disrupted conventional spacing and removed letters.” Thus, “trouble” was rendered as TRBL, and “drunk” as DRNK, each with two letters stacked over the other two. Can’t you just see the text message? “Got drnk last pm. Trbl.” And though some enthusiasts pay as much as $2 million for a Wool painting and critics make much of his punk art, I’ve seen better stuff spray-painted on the train cars that pass behind my house. Wool was hanging -- perhaps he should have been, but it was his art, actually -- at the Guggenheim during my recent visit to New York. And I’ll look at anything as long as it allows me to walk through that beautiful place. Designed by Frank Lloyd

Wright and completed in 1959, the Guggenheim is such an ideal space for art Rheta you wonder Johnson why nobody thought of Columnist the plan before. Its round shape and curving ramp makes a walk up, or down, the ideal way to enjoy paintings, if the paintings are enjoyable. And the skylight at the tiptop floods the exhibition hall with natural light. The white exterior is a break in gray, rectangular New York monotony. But, then, that’s the mark of genius. When it’s something so obvious that you can’t believe it’s not been done, painted or said before. A cliche becomes a cliche because it’s so good originally that it gets repeated. Wright himself claimed his design would make the Metropolitan Museum of
Art “look like a Protestant barn.” But when the Guggenheim opened in 1959, after Wright’s death, some critics complained that the building’s architecture overshadowed the art displayed inside. That was certainly the case the week I visited. Seeing the Guggenheim building is worth the cost and trouble of a trip to New York. On the other hand, I figure art collectors buying Wool are going to wake up a few decades from now, slap their foreheads and try to remember why they paid big bucks for block letters that say “Sell the House, Sell the Car, Sell the Kids.” Will that emperor never put on his clothes? I did like Wool’s photographs, probably because they made me feel better about my own. They are, the Guggenheim claims, “shot in a raw, abrasive style that disregards any concern for technical refinement.” I would say of my own grainy photos, “Shoot, this one is
World Wide Web: www.dailycorinthian.com To Sound Off: E-mail: email: news@dailycorinthian.com Circulation 287-6111 Classified Adv. 287-6147
out of focus.” Now I know better. I just have a disregard for technical refinement. When I got back to Mississippi, where we don’t know much, I looked up Wool and found a New York Times critic’s assessment of the well-attended current exhibition. He said it made him wonder what Wool would do next. Now, I know beauties like the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Pyramid and, yes, the Guggenheim were roundly hooted by fuddy-duddies, and that just because something’s not your personal taste you shouldn’t dismiss them out of hand. But when art on a museum wall looks like an illiterate kid’s cellphone, remember this: “Phone” starts with “P” and that rhymes with “T,” which stands for TRBL.

GOP, Democrats can compromise on bill WASHINGTON — A chastened Congress is putting aside the crisisdriven budget battles of the past three years, embracing a $1.1 trillion spending bill that restores or smooths the sharpest edges of the automatic cuts imposed as a result of its own dysfunction. The huge electionyear legislation preserves the downward trajectory on government spending demanded by Republicans. Yet the bipartisan measure steaming through Congress also preserves President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul and stricter regulation of financial markets — and deflects the most significant attempts by Republicans to rewrite environmental rules and force other changes. Lawmakers hope the compromise will show disgruntled voters before next fall’s midterm election that Washington — especially its unpopular Congress — can perform its most basic function of responsibly funding the government. The bravado that prompted tea party Republicans to force a government shutdown in hopes of derailing “Obamacare� is long gone, replaced by an election-year desire to focus attention on the administration’s troubled rollout of the health care law instead of lurching from crisis to crisis. “The average American looking at this, it looks pretty dysfunc-
tional for the last couple of years,â€? said Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla. “We need to rack up some achievements here — not just for Republicans but for incumbents in general and for the institution.â€? Â
Bates slams key proposed reforms WASHINGTON — The U.S. judiciary told Congress on Tuesday it opposes the idea of having an independent privacy advocate on the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, while members of Congress lauded the idea at a Capitol Hill hearing. Speaking for the entire U.S. judiciary, U.S. District Judge John D. Bates sent a letter to the Senate Intelligence Committee saying that appointing an independent advocate to the secret surveillance court is unnecessary and possibly counterproductive, and he slammed other key reforms as adding too heavy a caseload to the secret court’s work. In FISA court hearings, judges only hear from the government seeking a spy warrant. Bates said opening the proceeding to an advocate for privacy in general — who would never meet the suspect or be able to defend the charges against him — wouldn’t create the kind of back and forth seen in open criminal or civil court proceedings. “Given the nature of FISA proceedings, the participation of an advocate would neither cre-

ate a truly adversarial process nor constructively assist the courts in assessing the facts,â€? he wrote. Members of the presidential task force that recommended such an advocate defended the proposal before the Senate Judiciary Committee, as did Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., during a hearing on the NSA’s surveillance programs Tuesday.

Controlled burns planned along Trace TUPELO — Natchez Trace Parkway authorities say controlled fires are planned starting Wednesday in Lee County. The fires are used to reduce risk of wildfire. They will be at mileposts 266 and 260. Drivers are asked to drive with headlights on and watch for workers along the roadway. Temporary closings of the parkway are possible if areas become too smoky for safe driving. Â
Christie apologizes again for plot TRENTON, N.J. — Faced with a widening political scandal that threatens to undermine his second term and a possible 2016 presidential run, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie apologized again Tuesday, saying his administration “let down the people we are entrusted to serve� but that the issue doesn’t define his team or the state. On the eve of his second term, the governor opened his annual State of the State address by touching only briefly on the apparent political payback plot. “The last week has certainly tested this administration,� he said. “Mistakes were clearly made. And as a result, we let down the people we are entrusted to serve. I know our citizens deserve better.� He received tempered applause after he went on, saying, “This administration and this Legislature will not allow the work that needs to be done to improve the people’s lives in Jersey to be delayed.�
Shannon High School plans construction SHANNON — The construction a new two-story classroom building and a cafeteria at Shannon High School is planned for after students leave for the summer. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports that the construction is funded by part of a $13.5 million bond issue approved by Lee County voters on July 30. Superintendent Jimmy Weeks said bids will be reviewed in March. Construction will begin after an art building and a football concession stand are torn down. A new 11,000-squarefoot cafeteria will be built on that spot with space to seat at least 300 students and with a stage that can be used as an auditorium. A concession stand with restrooms is expected to be completed before the start of the 2015-16 school year. The school’s existing cafeteria and auditorium
then would be demolished during the summer of 2015, and a new two-story classroom building will be built on its location. That building will contain 19 classrooms. Next to it will be an entrance to the school’s football field. Weeks said he hopes that phase will be completed in time for students to move into the building in January 2017. Â
Woman convicted of FEMA fraud JACKSON— A federal jury in Mississippi has convicted a woman on four charges related to a tornado assistance claim made with the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Idella Jones was charged with falsely claiming that a house in Lexington was her primary residence when it was hit by a tornado in 2010. She was convicted Friday in U.S. District Court in Jackson. Jones, also known as Idella Jefferson, was
scheduled to plead guilty on Oct. 8, but the judge prosecutors weren’t satisfied that Jones was admitting guilt. Sentencing is March 21. Â

12-year-old boy opens fire at school ROSWELL, N.M. — A 12-year-old New Mexico boy drew a shotgun from a band-instrument case and shot and wounded two classmates at his middle school Tuesday morning before a teacher talked him into dropping the weapon and he was taken into custody, officials and witnesses said. Gov. Susana Martinez says a boy was critically injured and a girl was in serious condition following the shooting at Berrendo Middle School in Roswell. The students were in the gym, where she said they typically hang out before classes start during cold and inclement weather. The 12-year-old pulled a shotgun and opened fire there at about 8 a.m. But he was “quickly stopped by one staff member who walked right up to him and asked him to set down the firearm, which he did,” Martinez said. Officials at University Medical Center in Lubbock, Texas, say an 11-year-old boy was flown there in critical condition and a 13-year-old girl was en route in serious condition. Information from nurses treating the boy indicates he was the
Man sues hospital over brain-dead wife
requires it to continue treating a pregnant patient. Munoz’s lawsuit says that law doesn’t apply because Marlise Munoz is legally and medically dead. The condition of her fetus is unclear.
DALLAS — The fate of a brain-dead, pregnant Texas woman and her fetus likely will be decided in a courtroom after the woman’s husband sued the hospital keeping her on life support against his wishes. Erick Munoz filed a lawsuit in state district court in Fort Worth, where his wife, Marlise Munoz, has been on life support since he found her unconscious in their North Texas home on Nov. 26. She was 14 weeks pregnant at the time. Her family says the exact cause of her condition isn’t known, though a blood clot is a possibility. Erick and Marlise Munoz, both paramedics, had seen life and death up close and he previously told The Associated Press that his wife was clear with him: If she fell into a condition like this, pull life support and let her die. John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth, however, has refused to take Marlise Munoz off machines, citing a state law the hospital says
TULSA, Okla. — A federal judge on Tuesday struck down Oklahoma’s gay marriage ban, ruling that it violates the U.S. Constitution. U.S. District Judge Terrence Kern handed down the ruling in a lawsuit filed by two same-sex couples. Kern immediately stayed his ruling pending appeals, meaning gay marriages won’t happen in Oklahoma right away. The gay couples had sued for the right to marry and to have a marriage from another jurisdiction recognized in Oklahoma. Kern ruled on a constitutional amendment approved by Oklahoma voters in 2004 that says marriage in the state shall consist only of the union of one man and one woman. He said the measure violates the U.S. Constitution’s equal protection clause by precluding same-sex couples from receiving an Oklahoma marriage license. Oklahoma Attorney

General Scott Pruitt’s office did not immediately have a comment on the ruling.
Bieber’s home searched in incident CALABASAS, Calif. — Detectives searched Justin Bieber’s home looking for surveillance footage that might serve as evidence the pop star was involved in an egg-tossing vandalism case that caused thousands of dollars in damage to a neighbor’s home, an official said Tuesday. Roughly a dozen investigators searched Bieber’s home and arrested one member of the singer’s entourage on suspicion of cocaine possession, Lt. David Thompson said. The man was later identified as Lil Za, a rapper whose real name is Xavier Smith. Jail records show Smith, 20, was being held in lieu of $20,000 bail. Thompson said the cocaine linked to Smith was in plain sight when detectives searched Bieber’s house. Bieber, 19, was at the home and cooperated with authorities but was not interviewed by detectives. Thompson said he expected the singer to speak with detectives when his attorney could be present.

Beer sales petition needs review POPLARVILLE — Poplarville resident Roland Fandal said a petition calling for an election on the sale of beer and light wine in the city has enough signatures to be presented to Mayor Brad Necaise and the board of aldermen. Fandal needed signatures from about 320 of registered voters, or 20 percent of the city population. Necaise said the Item that the city will ask the Pearl River County Circuit Clerk’s Office to verify the signatures.
Fandal said he introduced the petition because the city has “no income” and that this could change what the city brings in. He said it’s a start in allowing the people of Poplarville to “use their money in their own town” and that it could attract businesses to the area. “The sale of alcohol is not the silver bullet, but it loads the gun for people who will buy ancillary products associated with those purchases,” Necaise said. “If we’re losing residents who would buy locally to other municipalities for the purchase of beer and wine, they also probably spend Jaye Smith, RMT #67

Amite woman dies in 2-vehicle crash LIBERTY — Police say a 67-year-old Amite County woman died Monday in a two-vehicle collision in Liberty. The Enterprise-Journal reported Sandra Martin was pronounced dead at University Medical Center in Jackson. Liberty police said they were called to the intersection of South Greensburg Road and Mississippi Highway 584 around 11:30 a.m. Police Chief Nathan Toney said Martin was southbound on Highway 584 when she encountered an 18-wheeler at a curve. Toney said the truck, driven by 50-year-old Gerrald Bradley of Houston, Texas, was towing an empty flatbed trailer that apparently slid across the lane and struck Martin’s vehicle. Martin was taken to
Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center and then transferred to University of Mississippi Medical Center. The wreck resulted in a boil-water notice being issued for local residents after an axle from the 18-wheeler landed on a water main and ruptured it. Cause of the accident is under investigation.
I-55’s westbound Lakeland exit to close JACKSON — The exit from northbound Interstate 55 to westbound Lakeland Drive will soon be shut down permanently. MDOT spokesman Jarrod Ravencraft says the current ramp won’t be closed until the new turn lane is built, and that access to St. Dominic Hospital and the University of Mississippi Medical Center will be maintained. The Mississippi Department of Transportation will reroute traffic, combining exits for both directions of Lakeland.

Angry dad wants to learn how to control his emotions DEAR ABBY: I’m a dad in my 30s and I have a problem. I have been battling anger issues since I was a kid. I have been finding myself getting more and more worked up with my kids. When they misbehave, I lose it and yell at them. It is the way I was raised; however, I feel even worse afterward. I really want to break this habit. I don’t want the only memories my children have of me to be images of my red face and buggedout eyes hollering at them. Do you have any guidelines I can follow to get a better handle on my anger? -- LOUD DAD IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR LOUD DAD: Yes, I do. And I’m glad you asked me because it’s important that you find other ways of relieving your frustration than taking it out on your children. It is not only counterproductive, it is extremely destructive. When a bigger person yells at a smaller person, the message is often lost because the smaller person (in your case, your children) simply shuts down out of fear that physical violence might follow. You should not ignore your feelings when your children act up. Rather, you need to find another
manner for expressing your emotions. My booklet “The Anger in All of Us and How to Deal With offers Abigail It” Van Buren suggestions on redirecting angry Dear Abby feelings in a healthy way. It can be ordered by sending your name and mailing address, plus a check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds), to Dear Abby -- Anger Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. Dealing with anger calmly and with reason is more effective than lashing out. Expressing your feelings is healthy when it’s done with a few well-chosen words that make your point. As you have already learned, exploding in anger serves no constructive purpose and only makes you feel worse afterward. Sometimes when people are angry or frustrated about other things, they can lose control of their temper. In situations like these, it is important to evaluate the source of what might really
be irritating you before misdirecting your anger at someone who is blameless. There are healthy ways of dealing with anger and frustration. Developing the control to express emotions verbally without being abusive or calling names is one of them. Another is to say a prayer (”Please Lord, don’t let me lose my temper!”) before opening your mouth. Leaving the room, going for a walk or short run can be helpful. Unhealthy ways that should be avoided include getting into your car when you are angry, or using alcohol or drugs to calm you. My booklet offers many other suggestions for dealing with anger and frustration, and I hope it will be helpful to you. However, if it isn’t, then you should discuss your problem with a mental health professional. It’s important to get a handle on your feelings so your children won’t grow up thinking that verbal abuse is a normal way to handle their emotions. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Certain visual images might provoke an unusual emotional response; or you might suddenly feel drawn to solving mysteries. If you are a typical extravert of Aries, you may feel bored or trapped. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You might suddenly feel for animal suffering, your children’s aspirations, or strangers’ troubles. This will be a good time for volunteering for some charity. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The Twins have already been through another test of doubts and temptations by now. On choosing the right course, stick to it. Your usual love for diversity should be complemented by tenacity. Then you’ll be making steady progress. CANCER (June 22-July 22). A soft vibe will amplify Cancer’s best features: sensitivity, musicality, compassion, and spirituality. At the same time, today will hardly add to your activity level. You’ll have to work if you feel decisive and strive for victory. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Use your intuition and your natural
psychological talents; take advantage of years of understanding the human nature. It’ll be good for the Lions to take off the regalia of power and adjust to the surrounding for a bit. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You should try to be on the same wavelength with the closest of their companions today - your coexistence and any communication will be difficult without it. Psychological talents will come handy to those of you who work as salespeople, lawyers, childcare providers or a teachers. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). This is a bad day for any calculation, revision, detail-oriented jewelry work, data entry, or paperwork filing. Poor health or excited imagination might throw some obstacles your way. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Today will prompt you to nourish your talents and encourage creativity of their children and loved ones. Even if this treasure can’t be used right this instant, you’ll still feel great overall and finally find your deeply rooted self-confidence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Soul ties with your parents, your household members, countrymen and childhood friends are very important for you during this time. They will be the right people to watch an old movie with or look through old pictures, get lost in memories and share problems. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).You might spill your heart out to a complete stranger, a colleague or a travel companion. If you have no one to listen about your tormented soul, register on a forum or chat dedicated to similar problems. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Set your imagination on a right track and don’t be afraid of the discoveries along the way. You might find a philosopher stone, a magic formula, a gold mine; you might even find a key to your loved one’s heart. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). When in doubt, don’t turn to the so-called worldly wisdom with its uninspired tips; don’t trust widely-circulated advice of glamour mass media. Your senses are acute now - they are the best indicator today.

Q-R-S-T
Airline stocks continue to soar this year after rising sharply in 2013. Several carriers, including American Airlines Group, Delta Air Lines and Southwest Airlines are up more than 13 percent. Shares of United Continental have already climbed 23.6 percent. Reports of a strong holiday travel season helped attract investor interest. American Airlines Group, which owns both American Airlines and US Airways since a merger last month, said traffic and a key revenue figure both increased sharply in December from the prior year. United reported that the same revenue figure rose more than expected due to strong passenger
traffic and prices throughout December. The key statistic — revenue for every seat flown one mile — rose about 12 percent at United, 14 percent to 15 percent at Southwest, and between 9 percent and 12 percent at American, US Airways and Delta. What’s more, investor confidence in the airline industry is more widespread as consolidation has reduced competition and given the airlines more pricing power. Also the price of oil has fallen nearly 6 percent since the start of the year. Airline stocks are highly sensitive to the price of oil because jet fuel is their largest single expense.

Better quarter? Major freight railroads like CSX have been struggling with weak coal demand over the past couple of years. The trend has hurt CSX’s revenue, even as revenue from other major freight sectors, such as shipments of containers hauled from ports, have grown. CSX is expected to report flat earnings today and modest revenue growth for the fourth quarter.

Tony Stewart back at work with media appearances; Mark Martin drives the No. 14 in Preseason Thunder testing
Sprint Cup title tie within Jimmie Johnson’s reach

Tony Stewart, who suffered a badly broken leg in a sprint car crash at an Iowa dirt track last August, was back at work last week in Florida. No, he wasn’t behind the wheel of his No. 14 Chevrolet. Mark Martin was on hand for testing at Daytona International Speedway as Stewart won’t be cleared to race for another four weeks. But Stewart was working — at a sponsor appearance in Jacksonville, Fla. — and at the track, meeting with fans and the media. He still walks with a noticeable limp, but he seemed in good spirits and confident that he’ll be ready to race in the Sprint Unlimited on Feb. 15 and in the Daytona 500 on Feb. 23. Stewart, who isn’t expected to be cleared to race by his doctors until Feb. 14, said he appreciated the support he’s gotten from fans during his rehabilitation. “The great thing is — our fans don’t stop just because we stopped racing,” he said, adding that the fans he met the night before in north Florida drew a good crowd of enthusiastic supporters. “It was exciting to see how excited they were of our progress. “It’s like little victories, like getting off of crutches and walking on our own again. That’s something the fans picked up on, and that was like a victory to them. It’s been pretty cool. It’s not just been a personal thing every day when I get up, it’s knowing that everybody is following what we’re doing, and when we have these little personal victories, accomplishments of getting healed back up, it’s much broader than just what’s going on with me, it’s affecting a lot more people.” Stewart said his time being laid up did give him a chance to think about things he wanted to do — a bucket list — once he got back behind the wheel of a race car. (He has been driving street cars for more than a month.) High on that list is a victory in the Daytona 500, one of the few major trophies that he hasn’t been able to win. “February here is high on that bucket list,” he said. “We haven’t won here yet. We’ve won [at Daytona], just not on the right day.” Stewart has 19 overall victories at Day-
NOTEBOOK
Tony Stewart, who should be cleared to race in a few weeks, speaks to the media at NASCAR Preseason Thunder at Daytona. tona: three in the Sprint Unlimited; two in IROC; three in the Budweiser Duel; seven in the season-opening Nationwide Series race, the Drive4COPD 300; and four in the Coke Zero 400. “The second Sunday (Daytona 500) would be nice,” he said. “That’s all that’s on the bucket list right now.” The down time also has allowed Stewart to reflect on the races he has won over the years, both in NASCAR and elsewhere. “I had a lot of spare time that I wasn’t used to, and just whether it was visitors coming and talking or telling stories, there’s a lot of things that even through the last couple weeks when I was home, seeing people that I haven’t seen for a long time and hearing stories, it’s pretty cool to finally have time a little bit to reflect back on what we’ve done in our career,” he said, adding that he doesn’t like to dwell too much on the past. “It’s like I told them at the end of every conversation, I was like, ‘Yeah, that’s just that chapter. We’re
still building chapters down the road.’ “It’s neat to talk about what we did in the past, but I’m excited to talk about what hopefully we can do in the future now.” And he said that even with his injury, he’s expecting to be in good enough shape to win the 500. “Physically, I’m not going to feel 100 percent, but I’ll be able to do my job 100 percent, so that’s the main thing,” he said. And he feels like Daytona is a good place for a comeback. “Luckily, this is a smooth race track,” he said. “It’s not rough and bumpy. If it were Dover, I would be a lot more concerned. But the hard part with here is with your throttle — with your right leg — you’re on the gas so long. “That’s the only thing we’re worried about right now, just because we just don’t know until we get in a car and actually run, and we’re not going to know that until the day before.”
Jimmie Johnson The start of the 2014 Sprint Cup season means that a record-tying seventh Cup championship is within reach of six-time and defending champion Jimmie Johnson. A title this year would tie him with legends Richard Petty and the late Dale Earnhardt. Johnson said the possibility will be on his mind as the season rolls along. “I haven’t put much thought into it, but if the opportunity is there in front of us and we get deep in the Chase and have a shot at it, that reality is going to be hard to keep out of my mind,” he said. “[It’s an] amazing opportunity to have ahead of myself, and to have six company championships is something I’m extremely proud of. “If I was able to tie, I don’t know what it would mean or what that experience would feel like, but to be up there with those two legends would be top of the list. Pretty cool.”
IMCA legend Ernie Derr dead at 92 Ernie Derr of Keokuk, Iowa, a 12-time International Motor Contest Association champion and the circuit’s all-time win leader with 328 victories, died Jan. 8 at age 92. From 1959 to 1962, Derr won four straight IMCA championships and 101 races. One of his main competitors was his brother-in-law, Don White. Derr last raced in 1977.
Two of NASCAR’s next generation of race drivers bolted to the top of the speed charts during Preseason Thunder testing at Daytona International Speedway last week. Austin Dillon, driving a Chevrolet owned by his grandfather Richard Childress and carrying the No. 3 that hasn’t been used since Dale Earnhardt’s fatal crash at Daytona in 2001, set the pace in Friday’s Sprint Cup practice session. Dillon, who also drove Chevrolets carrying the same No. 3 and in the same style of lettering in the Camping World Truck Series and in the Nationwide Series, ran a best lap of 195.109 miles per hour in a test session that was cut from two days to one because of rain. In Saturday’s opening practice for the Nationwide Series, 18-year-old Chase Elliott, driving a Chevrolet carrying the same No. 9 his father, Bill Elliott, made famous, used a drafting push from his 58-year-old father to top the Nationwide speed charts. Driving a NAPA Auto Parts-sponsored Chevrolet fielded by JR Motorsports, Elliott ran a lap at 187.993 miles per hour. Bill Elliott, driving the No. 5 Chevy that Dale Earnhardt Jr. will drive at Daytona, was second fastest, at 187.974 mph. The third JR Motorsports driver, Regan Smith, was third fastest, at 187.950 mph. In Sunday’s test session, Elliott was second-fastest behind Dylan Kwasniewski, who was driving the No. 31 Chevrolet for Turner Scott Motorsports. Dillon, 23, seems to have a deep appreciation for the history of the sport and the legend of the No. 3, which also was used by Childress in his driving days. He even dresses in cowboy boots and hats, much like many a driver in the early days of the sport. “I’m honored to be in the 3,” he said. “This is special, and walking into this Cup garage is pretty cool. There are so many heroes in this garage for me, and just being in this garage is going to be pressure.” And he said he felt like he was up to the challenge of driving an iconic car in a tough Cup series.

Preseason Thunder at Daytona sees high test speeds and major announcements
Austin Dillon’s No. 3 Chevrolet ran a best lap of 195.109 mph during Preseason Thunder testing at Daytona. “I feel like we’ve taken our time coming up through the Truck Series, the Nationwide Series and done what we needed to do to get experience,” he said. “I’m thankful for my grandfather, my dad and everybody at RCR for letting me take the time. Not everybody has the opportunity to grow and to get experience, so that’s one great thing. “I feel now we’re going in the Cup Series prepared. We have a great team with a lot of experience. I feel like we’re ready for a good Cup season.” Another big story from Preseason Thunder was the news that Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s crew chief, Steve Letarte, would be leaving the pit box at the end of 2014 to take a job as a commentator for NBC, which is returning to NASCAR in 2015. Earnhardt said that while he was stunned by the idea initially, he’s gotten used to it by now and does not look on 2014 as a lame-duck season for Letarte as a crew chief. “I had a pretty good understanding what his decision was
going to be when I left Homestead [last November],” he said. “I’ve had time to really wrap my brain around it. It was hard because we are such good friends, and I really do enjoy working with him a lot. But at the same time, I’m happy for him because it gives him the opportunity to spend time with his family. It’s something that’s really important to him.” Earnhardt also said he feels good about his team’s upcoming season. “I know that [Letarte] is really good at separating things and keeping things compartmentalized,” he said. “I know that we’re going to be fine as far as how we’ll compete this year and how we might move through the process of the season. I expect us to do nothing less than improve on what we’ve been doing and steadily keep moving toward our goals. “But it’s definitely going to be emotional and difficult at times, just because we really enjoy working together. Steve is a great crew chief that’s going to get us a good opportunity to try to win some races.” For Letarte, the bottom line in his decision is that NBC offered him a job that will allow him to not only remain in the company of his garage-area friends, but also spend more time with his family back at home. “When it comes down to it, probably the No. 1 thing is I have an 8- and a 10-year-old child, and I know the commitment it takes to be a top-level crew chief,” he said. “I don’t know firsthand the commitment that it takes to be great on television, but I don’t think it’s quite the same time commitment and travel commitment. “I’ve always said, I don’t think I’ve ever hidden it from anyone, that my family has always been my No. 1 priority, and it comes down to if I’m going to be unsuccessful in anything I do, being a father shouldn’t be on the list, so I’m going to put that one first.” Team owner Rick Hendrick said in a statement that he’s not going to work on finding a new crew chief for Earnhardt until later this year.

NASCAR executives have been talking publicly for the past three years about their plans to replace John Darby as the director of the Sprint Cup Series. Come Speedweeks, it will be a reality. Richard Buck, a longtime figure in the motorsports world, will replace Darby, but not before he oversees the Rolex 24 at Daytona. Darby will remain in a management position at NASCAR and will work more closely with the inspectors at the company’s research and development center in Concord, N.C. NASCAR president Mike Helton said in announcing Buck’s move from vice president of the International Motor Sports Association to the Cup Series that he’s highly qualified for the position. “His background is very broad in motorsports, from winning Indy 500s on pit road as crew chief there to the last several years with us managing and building our touring and weekly program,” Helton said. Buck went to Victory Lane at the Indianapolis 500 five times while working with drivers Rick Mears, Al Unser Sr., Al Unser Jr. and Emerson Fittipaldi. He said in a NASCAR release that he’s ready for his newest challenge. “I’m eager and ready to pursue this unique opportunity to serve as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series managing director,” he said. “I appreciate the faith that NASCAR’s management team has entrusted in me for this role. As we prepare to launch the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season, I’m thrilled to expand my role in the sport of NASCAR, and I look forward to helping the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series competition team continue to produce the best racing in the world.”

Players react to Franklin’s hiring The Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — James Franklin is the third football coach in what for many Penn State football players will be four seasons and already has left a good first impression. The 41-year-old Franklin, who spent three years resurrecting Vanderbilt’s program and guided the Commodores to a 24-15 record, has been labeled a players’ coach by a group of Nittany Lion players who have had an oversized dash of change and more than a pinch of adversity on their Penn State plate. Franklin became Penn State’s 16th coach on Saturday, replacing Bill O’Brien,
who took over the NFL’s Houston Texans after replacing the late Joe Paterno in 2012. Franklin wasted no time getting acclimated. He lured in four recruits, glad-handed with fans at three Penn State winter sporting events and ultimately met his new football family on Sunday night. “I’d be lying to you if I said it wasn’t a little crazy, watching it on TV and being home over break,” offensive guard Miles Dieffenbach said Tuesday. “There was nothing we could do about it and we knew (athletic director) Dave Joyner would pick someone great. Coach Franklin is a real players’ coach. He cares a lot
about the team. That’s something I really look forward to, building a relationship with him.” Penn State’s roster remains relatively young, but players have survived more than one passing storm. They dealt with the Jerry Sandusky child abuse scandal from which came harsh NCAA sanctions, the firing and then death of the legendary Paterno, the coming and going of O’Brien and Monday’s announcement by veteran defensive line coach Larry Johnson that, according to various news reports, he was going to go to work for Big Ten rival Ohio State. “Looking back on it we
really have been through a whole lot,” Dieffenbach said. “It builds character and builds strength. We want to win some games and we think Coach Franklin is the coach to help us do that.” Franklin has yet to officially name a coaching staff or training personnel, something the players are waiting on. “We have a good group of guys and should be able to transition pretty easily,” linebacker Mike Hull said. “You have to take everything with a grain of salt and keep moving forward. We’ve been through a lot, we don’t have to change Please see FRANKLIN | 11A
Garvin collects Lady Tiger award BY BLAKE D. LONG NEMCC Sports Information
BOONEVILLE — Katie Garvin garnered yet another honor in her return to Bonner Arnold Coliseum and Northeast Mississippi Community College on Thursday. The Corinth native and former standout at Kossuth High School was decorated with the 2013 Tiger Award for women’s basketball by head coach Brian Alexander at halftime of the men’s game against Wallace State (Ala.) Community College at Hanceville. “Katie was one of the finest students on this campus whether an athlete or not,” said Alexander. “She is a great person as well and we’re just so proud of her. She’s very deserving of this award.” Garvin received high praise for her tireless work in the classroom while in Booneville. She recently was named one of two Northeast honorees for the David M. Halbrook Award Certificate for Academic Achievement Among Athletes. Each college or university in the state selects a male and female student athlete to receive this recognition, with the suggestion from the Mississippi Association of Colleges and Universities (MAC) that the recipients have a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 on a 4.00 scale on all courses

The former Lady Tiger guard was named to the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) Academic All-State team as a sophomore and also found herself among the country’s best that same season. Garvin earned an Exem-
plary Academic Achievement Award from the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) for finishing the year with a 3.78 GPA. Garvin also stood out on the basketball court and stepped into a crucial role for Alexander. “She played for me in my second year and we were still
trying to establish work ethic and attitude,” he said. “Katie was always a leader. One thing I could do is always count on her to do the right thing even on the good and bad days.” Garvin averaged five points and 1.4 steals per game as one Please see GARVIN | 11A
The Associated Press
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Breaking the school record for consecutive home wins should be something to celebrate. Not for No. 7 Florida, which has fallen one step short of the Final Four the last three years. Michael Frazier II scored a careerhigh 21 points and the Gators handled Georgia 72-50 on Tuesday night, notching their 25th straight at the O’Connell Center. Undermanned Florida topped the previous mark set between March 2006 and November 2007. Two-time national champions Corey Brewer, Taurean Green, Al Horford and Joakim Noah did most of the heavy lifting in that streak. This group, which has four seniors who have tasted plenty of disappointment, barely acknowledged their achievement. “It’s cool to be a part of that and to accomplish something like that,” center Pat Young said. “Hopefully we can top it with an NCAA championship and a Final Four and all that good stuff. Making a record that someone else has to break is pretty cool. Hopefully it stays here for another 100 years or however Florida is around.” If Frazier continues to play like he did against the Bulldogs, Florida (14-2, 3-0 Southeastern Conference) certainly could improve its chances of making a deep run in the NCAA tournament. Frazier made 7 of 16 shots, including 5 of 12 from 3-point range. His previous high was 20 points in a loss to Wisconsin early this season. Coaches and teammates told Frazier to keep shooting despite a 1-for-8 start. “Any time you can get hot like that, catch fire, it feels good,” Frazier said. “My teammates had great confidence in me, coaches told me to keep shooting. That always feels good to have my teammates and my coaches behind me.” Juwan Parker led Georgia (8-7, 2-1) with 13 points while Marcus Thornton added 11 points and seven rebounds.
Georgia hires FSU’s Pruitt to head defense The Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia coach Mark Richt moved quickly to name a new defensive coordinator, hiring Jeremy Pruitt from Florida State on Tuesday, only two days after losing Todd Grantham to Louisville. Richt said he is “ecstatic” to add Pruitt to the Georgia staff. Pruitt has coached on three straight national championship teams at Alabama and Florida State. Under Pruitt, undefeated Florida State led the nation in scoring defense, allowing 12.1 points per game, and ranked third in total defense while winning the national championship. Pruitt also was Florida State’s defensive backs coach,
and the Seminoles ranked second in the nation in passing efficiency defense. Pruitt, who was in Athens on Tuesday, said the move to Georgia “is an outstanding professional and personal opportunity.” “I’m looking forward to meeting the current players and getting on the road to visit with recruits,” Pruitt said. Georgia expects to return 10 starters on defense. Pruitt already has a close relationship with at least one Georgia assistant coach. Pruitt began his playing career at Middle Tennessee State before transferring to Alabama, where he was roommates with Georgia offensive line coach Will Friend. Georgia did not release
terms of Pruitt’s contract. Grantham was earning $850,000. Pruitt, 39, earned $500,000 in 2013 and was expected to receive a raise at Florida State. Before moving to Florida State, Pruitt was the secondary coach at Alabama for three seasons, including the Crimson Tide’s national championship teams in 2011 and 2012. With the Feb. 5 national signing day only three weeks away, Richt moved quickly to hire Pruitt, who is known as a strong recruiter. Pruitt produced instant results in his one season at Florida State. “He taught us the ins and outs of everything,” Florida State safety Terrence Brooks
said recently. “Just the way to pursue to the ball, the way to go get the ball, everything you can think about in football he’s taught us. He really broke the game down to us as to why we’re running this type of defense. “He makes you understand it so much better and I feel like everyone bought into it and that’s why we’re so successful.” Grantham was named Louisville’s defensive coordinator on Sunday. He was the second defensive assistant to leave Georgia. Secondary coach Scott Lakatos resigned on Thursday, citing undisclosed personal reasons. Under Grantham, Georgia’s defense produced mixed results.
Handful of key players at LSU turning pro The Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. — LSU’s top rusher and top two receivers are entering the NFL draft, along with one of the Tigers’ starting offensive linemen. In separate announcements Monday, sophomore running back Jeremy Hill, junior receiver Jarvis Landry and sophomore right guard Trai Turner have confirmed their intentions to turn pro. LSU also confirmed receiver Odell Beckham Jr.’s decision. Hill has played two seasons at LSU and was the Tigers’ leading rusher each season.
“I am a Tiger for life. I will forever be grateful to my LSU fans, friends, coaches and family. This decision has been very difficult for me,” Hill wrote on a social media account that was verified by LSU’s chief athletic spokesman Michael Bonnette. “With all of that being said, I have decided to forego my Junior season and enter the 2014 NFL Draft.” Landry was expected to turn pro after racking up 1,193 yards receiving and 10 touchdowns in his third season, and finally released his decision through a short written
statement released by LSU. “It’s has been the best three years of my life,” Landry said of his time at LSU. “I will always be a Tiger.” Beckham, a junior, had 1,152 yards and eight TDs receiving, and together he and Landry accounted 2,345 of the 3,263 yards receiving LSU had as a team. Beckham also was LSU’s primary kick and punt returner, and even returned a missed field goal 100 yards for a score. Turner has started at right guard since the middle of 2012, his redshirt freshman
year, and leaves with two years of eligibility left. Hill rushed for 1,401 yards and 16 touchdowns this season, including a 216-yard, two-touchdown performance in LSU’s 21-14 victory over Iowa in the Outback Bowl. In a statement issued by his agent, Peter Schaffer, Turner said he “loved every minute” at LSU and came to his decision “after lengthy, serious consideration with my family and coaches.” Turner said coach Les Miles and his offensive staff “prePlease see LSU | 11A

who we are. The thing you really need to do is establish yourself as a hard worker and just let your coaches know you’re 100 percent dedicated to the team.� Maintaining that strong work ethic was part of Franklin’s initial speech, according to defensive back Jordan Lucas. “He (Franklin) introduced himself and said what an honor it was to be the coach here at Penn State,� Lucas said. “The message he gave us is that we’re going to outwork everybody and everybody is on board with it. We see his vision and we’re going to work really hard to make that happen.� Sunday’s team meeting was a welcome reunion, according to Dieffenbach. “We walked in there and it was really like nothing had changed,� he said. “Guys were having a great time. We joked about it. We missed each other. We couldn’t wait to get back and be together. It’s the sign of a tight-knit team. Team morale has never been higher. You have to build new relationships. Your job as a team is to buy in completely, 100 percent as team, and that’s what we’re going to do.�

of the top defenders and ballhandlers for the Lady Tigers during the 2012-13 campaign. She was one of two sophomores on a Northeast team that qualified for the NJCAA Region 23 Tournament and finished as runner-up to Copiah-Lincoln Community College in the MACJC State Tournament. Following her final year in Booneville, Garvin was selected to participate in the MACJC AllStar Game on the East Central Community College campus in Decatur. Garvin dropped in a seasonbest 12 points in a victory over East Central and recorded a yearly high of 11 rebounds against Jones County Junior College in the quarterfinal round of the MACJC State Tournament. “It’s a big honor for me,� she said. “We went through a lot of trials as a team and I just kind of saw an opportunity to step up where I needed to be. We had great players that all helped each other so it was just a team thing.� After graduating from Northeast in May, Garvin enrolled at Mississippi State University to continue her promising academic career. The Tiger Award is given to a student athlete in each sport sponsored by Northeast that represents the institution with a positive attitude on-and-off the field or court and is actively involved in school functions and organizations.

Then last spring, he was caught on video punching a fellow LSU student outside a bar, resulting in more charges and a suspension from the team. That led to an additional misdemeanor plea, but a

Lions turn to ex-Indianapolis coach Caldwell The Associated Press
DETROIT — Jim Caldwell got a ringing endorsement from one of his mentors when Detroit Lions general manager Martin Mayhew was doing his homework. The Lions hired Caldwell on Tuesday to replace fired coach Jim Schwartz, ending a search that included a phone conversation between Mayhew and Tony Dungy. “Martin called me and said
we’re looking for a leader who can help turn our locker room into a winning one and to help us get the most out of our investment in Matthew Stafford,� Dungy recalled in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. “I told Martin that Jim Caldwell is exactly what you’re looking for. He’ll lead by making people accountable and by being a role model on and off the field. And with his attention to detail and history of devel-
oping quarterbacks, Stafford is going to flourish just like Peyton Manning did with us in Indianapolis.� Detroit wanted to replace Schwartz with someone with experience as a head coach, ideally with a track record of tutoring quarterbacks. Caldwell helped the Indianapolis Colts reach the Super Bowl after his debut season in 2009, but was fired two years later after a 2-14 season while

state judge in August allowed him to remain on probation — albeit under a curfew, bar-ban and other restrictions — and Miles allowed Hill to return to the Tigers for fall practice. Miles disciplined Hill by not allowing him to play in the season-opener in Dallas against TCU, which LSU won without him. Hill returned in the second game of the season and quickly earned back his starting job. Hill waited about two weeks after LSU’s season ended to make his announcement. Had he decided to come back, the Tigers would have welcomed that, given the uncertainty

surrounding their passing game because of the departures of senior quarterback Zach Mettenberger and turnover at receiver. But LSU’s running game is still expected to be formidable with the arrival of Leonard Fournette and the return of Terrence Magee, who rushed for 644 yards and eight TDs on only 86 carries — an average of 7.3 yards per carry. Fournette, who starred
in high school for St. Augustine in New Orleans and was selected Louisiana’s 2013 Mr. Football, announced on Jan. 2 he’d attend LSU. The 6-foot-1, 226-pound Fournette was widely considered the top high school running back in the country this past fall, and had narrowed his choices to LSU, Alabama and Texas before ultimately announcing his intention to join the Tigers.

Manning was injured, dropping his three-year mark to 26-22. Before Caldwell was hired by the Dungy-led Colts in 2002 to be their quarterbacks coach, he had the same job for Dungy with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Plants, flowers bring symbolism to weddings
Photo by Scott Corey/MSU Ag Communications
A good florist will help make decisions on what flowers and colors to include in a wedding. Here, Mississippi State University senior Meryl Williams of Columbus selects flowers and foliage for a corsage project in her wedding floral design class.

Bouquets, corsages and floral arrangements are linked firmly with church weddings, but landscape plants can promote a romantic atmosphere at outdoor nuptials, too. There are several landscape and garden plants with romantic symbolism that last through the year. Consider gomphrena, a great choice for cut flower arrangements because when dried, it keeps its flower color. Not only is it a visual representation of an unfading love, it’s also pretty in the landscape for months. Loves sees with the heart and is symbolized by a heart. The heartshaped leaves of caladium in the landscape show the abundance of your love. These plants are grown for their colorful foliage, which comes in romantic reds and wedding-day whites that symbolize immense delight and joy. Once the right plants have been chosen for outdoors, the next step is finding the right flowers for the ceremony itself. The first task is choosing colored flowers to coordinate with the bride’s and bridesmaids’ dresses. Consider the symbolic meaning of the flower so you don’t convey the wrong message. Yellow roses or chrysanthemums may be the color you like, but for those in the know, they send negative messages of jealousy and slighted love. Choosing the right flow-
er for use in a wedding has a lot to do with the appearance of Gary the plant Bachman itself. For example, Southern consider Gardening a cactus plant. You probably have never been to a wedding that featured cactus plant decorations, as their rough exteriors and prickly spines do not convey their symbolism of warmth. So let me try to help you out with some examples of popular wedding flowers and their potential uses. The rose is perhaps the most widely used flower in weddings. In many cultures, the rose is a symbol of love, emotion and beauty. It also doesn’t hurt the plant’s popularity that roses are available all year and come in a wide variety of colors to match any design scheme. But while the rose may be the first plant that springs to mind, don’t forget to include flowers produced by bulbs or tubers. Two of the most popular are tulips and calla lilies. Tulips are a meaningful choice to include in the floral arrangements as they symbolize all-consuming love. They can be found in a wide range of colors, from white to reds and purples. Tulips are available all year and are very versatile.
Symbolizing magnificent beauty, the calla lily is a good choice for bouquets and arrangements. The flowers open upwards into an elegant trumpet shape and can be a good choice for boutonnieres. Gardenias are the wedding flowers with the most sought-after scent. A native of South Africa, the gardenia has thick, waxy leaves. Its heady fragrance makes it a fantastic addition to bouquets or sweet-smelling corsages. The pure-white flower symbolizes purity and joy, though it must be handled gently. Always use a good, reputable florist to help you choose flowers and design floral arrangements for a wedding. Trying to take care of the details of the wedding flowers may seem like a fun job in the beginning, but brides (and grooms) can become overwhelmed very quickly. Select your florist early in the wedding planning process, and be sure to communicate exactly what you want your floral designs to look like. Talk with a gardening expert about how to include these other loving plants in your landscape.

Seed catalogs offer lots of inspiration THE OTHER THREE QUARTERS OF THE QUARTER POUNDER FAMILY.

OXFORD — Forty years ago, a big old room at the big old Extension Service Building at Mississippi State University took on a mustier-than-usual smell about this time every year. That’s because the pace of properly dried soil samples arriving from all

over the state picked up. If memory serves, most arrived in those pintsized paper containers with little wire handles, just like those used by Chinese take-out eateries. It was soil testing time. What triggered the deluge was the mail-order seed catalogs that started showing up in the mailboxes of hobby gardeners just after Christmas and into early January. The hobby gardeners planned to be planting before Good Friday, some years well before. They wanted some guidance. The colorful catalogs were a stark contrast to the gray skies, leafless trees and lifeless vegetation outside. A person could sit by the fire, slowly turn the catalog pages and experience spring. Once the postman delivered the samples to the Extension Service, college students would log them
in and conduct tests. With reference to what the sender said he or she planned to grow, a form would be completed and mailed back, instructing the gardener how much lime, how much this, how much that should be tilled in before planting. There’s a still a big old Extension Service Building, but it’s a lot newer than the old Extension Service Building. And hobby gardeners still know that if they get their soil right, the rest is pretty easy. Those tests were important. Still are. During the history of the written word, many inspirational letters, books, poems and messages of all forms have been circulated. Few fire energies and imaginations, however, quite as well as a seed catalog pulled from the mailbox on a cold winter’s day.

Boyfriend is too afraid to commit WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD

PICKLES
Dear Annie: I’m a divorced woman who was married to a self-centered man for 30 years. He often told me that if I thought there was something better out there to not let the door hit me on the way out. I finally took him up on it, and it turned out to be the best advice he ever gave me. For the past three years, I’ve been dating “Ted,” also divorced. He is smart and successful, and we are perfect together in every way. Here is the problem: Ted is not ready to marry. He told me his marriage ended because there was no passion. He fears if we live together, the physical attraction we feel for each other will die. Ted and I spend weekends together and travel often, but then he goes home to his house. I don’t want to live alone for the rest of my life. But if Ted isn’t ready after three years, I doubt he ever will be. His reluctance hurts me deeply and brings back all those feelings of unworthiness from my marriage. Is it time for me to walk? -- Thought I’d Found the One Dear Thought: Ted may be skittish about commitment, but that is his issue, and he is making it yours. Some women are perfectly content with a no-strings relationship with someone
Annie’s Mailbox they find compatible. But if you are looking for marriage, you will have to set Ted free and look elsewhere. We realize you have put a lot of effort, energy and emotion into this relationship, but if the end result makes you unhappy and anxious, Ted is not the right person for you. Dear Annie: I must reply to all the mothersin-law who write to you and can’t understand why they are treated so unfairly by their daughtersin-law. My mother-in-law has been incredibly mean to me from the first time I met her. She deliberately does not include me in many of the family functions. She promises my children outings and never follows through. She and her daughter have been the nightmares of my life. This has gone on for years now, and I would rather not have any contact with them. My husband feels I should “be the better person” and just ignore their behavior. But, Annie, I can only do this for so long before the better course is to simply
walk away. -- The Other Side of the Story Dear Other Side: Has your husband stood up for you with his family? Does he say, “My wife must be invited to these family functions, or I will not attend”? Does he tell his mother that the children no longer believe her promises and it hurts her relationship with them? If he thinks sweeping Mom’s behavior under the rug will make things better, he is mistaken. It is cowardly. Mom will learn to respect you as a member of her family if her son makes it clear to her that this is not optional and there are clear consequences. We cannot guarantee that she will change her tune, but we can absolutely assure you that if your husband does not do these things, nothing will ever improve and you are right to limit contact. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
