Auditor acknowledges investigation

BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com

Stacey Pickering said late last year that ongoing investigations of public officials in Alcorn County were not complete.

Mississippi’s state auditor confirmed Saturday he cur-

rently has investigators in Alcorn County, following up on complaints from Alcorn County citizens.

The Daily Corinthian contacted Pickering after receiving photos of county employees allegedly dumping and spreading

gravel on private property.

The newspaper also received a list of specific addresses where county work had been allegedly performed on private property.

“We are following up on complaints from Alcorn County citizens,” said Pickering. “There

have been multiple tips and leads.”

The state auditor said it was too early in the investigation to give any specifics.

“I can give no specifics at this time as I don’t want to jeopardize the investigation,” he said.

Tips help people chase away the ‘Winter Blues’

BY KIMBELRY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

With the winter season now in full frost, many Crossroads residents are waking up to find their moods are plunging as low as the temperatures.

Often accompanied by sadness, fatigue, hunger and trouble sleeping, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), also known as the “Winter Blues” or “Winter Depression,” is a very real disorder which can affect even the most cheerful of dispositions.

Local mental health professionals agree changing seasons

can have a significant effect on moods, outlooks and attitudes.

“While the weather definitely works on our emotions, there are some things we can do to help lift our spirits,” said Jaylene Whitehurst, M.Ed, LPC at The Heartwork Center.

She suggests the following ideas for overcoming the winter doldrums: ■ Get moving — Whether it’s indoor or outdoor activities, it’s important to maintain our fitness routines since exercise not only keeps our bodies in motion, but releases “feel good” chemicals in

our brains known as endorphins.

■ Soak up the sun — Spending just 30 minutes outdoors during the warmest part of the day can drastically change our attitudes.

So, get out there and get a natural dose of vitamin D. ■ Banish the dark — Invest in a light box, open the blinds or turn on a lamp rather than sitting in the darkness.

■ Consider anti-depressants — While many can benefit from a change in routine or scenery, some individuals may also benefit from adding anti-depressant therapy for a short time. Your

family medical professional may need to determine whether there is a serious case of depression which may require counseling or if there is another underlying medical issue.

■ Keep your mind occupied — Start a new hobby, plan your spring garden or next vacation and visualize the things that make you happy. Art projects such as painting, coloring and sculpting can also be relaxing.

The more technology we are tied to, the more we hunger for true

Artist with late start has exhibit at gallery

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

When it comes to getting a late start in art, Grandma Moses has nothing on former Corinthian Gayle Carlin Forsythe.

The 87-year-old picked up the paintbrush at 82, several years later than the more famous painter of American folk scenes. Now a resident of Lakeland, Tenn., Forsythe will be at the art gallery from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday for the opening of her exhibit, which runs through Feb. 5.

With a lifelong appreciation of art and nature, she began watching art programs on television and decided she wanted to give painting a try.

“My life took a new turn as I began painting with never having a lesson or instructions, just having the desire,” she said. “I feel that God has blessed me giving me this opportunity late in my life.”

Health issues forced her to put down the brush after just a few months of painting, and she didn’t return to the new hobby until late in 2014.

The exhibit includes a selection of oil

paintings, mostly featuring landscapes.

“She’s really good at putting forth a mood in a scene,” said Guild President Sonny Boatman. “They really are poetic expressions.”

One of his favorites, displayed in the front window, captures the suggestion of wind moving through the woods.

“She seems to have a great devotion for nature, having grown up on a farm in this area,” he said. “But she also paints mountains and areas that are beyond our southern climes.”

Born in Ramer, Tenn., she married Ed Forsythe in Corinth, and they had three sons. Her late husband worked for R.C. Johnson in the auto business.

The gallery hopes her late-in-life creativity will be an inspiration to others.

“Gayle is a mother, a grandmother, a great-grandmother, and, now, a painter,” said Boatman. “It’s never too late to pursue a dream.”

Regular gallery hours at 609 North Fillmore are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

Local conference features all-day preaching

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

WHEELER GROVE — An entire day of preaching and singing is coming soon to Alcorn County.

The Mississippi Baptist Evangelism Conference will be that and a tad more on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 at Wheeler Grove Baptist Church.

Six speakers are slated to preach during the Mississippi Baptist Convention sponsored event.

“We are excited to have the conference on this end of the state,” said Wheeler Grove pastor Dr. Kara Blackard. “I believe it is going to be one of the finest conferences we have hosted.”

The conference kicks off on Sunday, Jan. 31 at 6 p.m. Bob Smith, of Bob Smith Ministries in Huntsville, Ala. will provide

the praise and worship part of the night. Smith is in charge of the praise and worship for the entire conference.

“Bob is just great,” added Blackard.

Herb Reavis of North Jacksonville Baptist Church will be bringing the message on Sunday night.

Monday’s full-day of singing and preaching begins at 9:15 a.m.

“It will be a time of refreshing,” said Bro. Blackard. “The speakers and singers are going to be fantastic.”

Reavis and Bob Pitman, of Bob Pitman Ministries, Muscle Shoals, Ala. will be preaching during the morning session.

Following a two-hour break for lunch, the trio of Junior Hill – Junior Hill Ministries, Hartstelle, Ala., Phil Hoskins and

Mississippi Baptist Convention Board Executive Director/Treasurer Jim Futral will be speaking.

Wheeler Grove will provide dinner at no cost from 4:30-6 p.m.

“We are going to have a giant fish fry for 500 people,” said Blackard.

Sammy Gilbreath, Alabama Baptist Convention Board Evangelism Director, will wrap up the conference beginning at 6:30 p.m.

“We want it to be a blessing,” added Blackard. “I don’t believe anyone will be disappointed.”

While most conferences have breakout sessions, that will not be the case at Wheeler Grove.

“It will be strictly one sermon after another with singing,” said Blackard.

WILDLIFE CONTINUED FROM 1A

Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks and USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service combine to coordinate the event.

“We are at the end of deer season and everyone should be stocked up and ready to make plenty of dishes,” said Mitchell. “It will also be a good time for people to get together and tell their hunting and fishing stories.”

Registration for the dish contest starts at 5 p.m. The supper is set for a 6 p.m. start. The competition divisions will consist of Water Critter, Feathered, Antlered, Land Critter, Hunting Club, Chili-Stew and Desserts.

Last year, 151 dishes were entered for a chance at a monetary award.

“Our judges have a tough time deciding the

top three in each division,” added Mitchell.

No store-bought dish can be entered in the contest.

Those who aren’t ready to live on the wild side when it comes to the supper have other options.

Rollin’ Rumps BBQ Catering & Vending will be cooking barbecue and hot dogs for those non-adventurous types, according to Mitchell.

Transportation for those who need assistance in delivering dishes from the parking lot to the arena will be provided. 4-H Congressional Delegates will be assisting by taking dishes down to the arena floor.

Mitchell hopes the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks will be bringing back the computerized shooting game available for kids.

“That was very popular

and had kids lined up to shoot all night,” she said.

Two bicycles – one for a girl and one for a boy – will also be raffled during the supper.

“Only the kids will be able to buy raffle tickets for the bikes,” said Mitchell. “The winners, who must be present to win, will be available to ride them home.”

An adult and youth gun will also be raffled. Alcorn County 4-H is slated to raffle a grill.

Organizers are in need of businesses to donate door prizes for the annual event.

“We welcome anyone who would like to donate,” said Mitchell. “Anyone interested in sponsoring the supper are also welcome to do so.”

Sunday, January 17, 2016

Today is Sunday, Jan. 17, the 17th day of 2016. There are 349 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 17, 1916, the Professional Golfers’ Association of America had its beginnings as department store magnate Rodman Wanamaker hosted a luncheon of pro and amateur golfers in New York City. (The PGA of America was formally established on April 10, 1916.)

On this date: In 1893, the 19th president of the United States, Rutherford B. Hayes, died in Fremont, Ohio, at age 70. Hawaii’s monarchy was overthrown as a group of businessmen and sugar planters forced Queen Lili’uokalani to abdicate.

In 1945, Soviet and Polish forces liberated Warsaw during World War II; Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg, credited with saving tens of thousands of Jews, disappeared in Hungary while in Soviet custody.

In 1950, the Great Brink’s Robbery took place as seven masked men held up a Brink’s garage in Boston, stealing $1.2 million in cash and $1.5 million in checks and money orders. (Although the entire gang was caught, only part of the loot was recovered.)

In 1966, a U.S. Air Force B-52 carrying four unarmed hydrogen bombs crashed on the Spanish coast. (Three of the bombs were quickly recovered, but the fourth wasn’t recovered until April.)

In 1977, convicted murderer Gary Gilmore, 36, was shot by a firing squad at Utah State Prison in the first U.S. execution in a decade.

In 1984, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc., ruled 5-4 that the use of home video cassette recorders to tape television programs for private viewing did not violate federal copyright laws.

In 1995, more than 6,000 people were killed when an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.2 devastated the city of Kobe, Japan.

In 1996, Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman and nine followers were handed long prison sentences for plotting to blow up New York-area landmarks.

In 2001, faced with an electricity crisis, California used rolling blackouts to cut off power to hundreds of thousands of people; Gov. Gray Davis signed an emergency order authorizing the state to buy power.

Meeting to fill board seat set for Monday A special meeting of the Alcorn School Board is scheduled for Monday at 5 p.m., at the school district’s main office.

Board members will announce an appointee for the board’s vacate second district seat.

Second district residents interested in the position are encouraged to present to the board at that time.

The board is required to fill the vacancy with a temporary appointee until the term expires at the end of this year. An election is already scheduled for the fall with the elected individual to begin office in 2017.

Seven residents have already shown interest in the seat including former 2nd District Supervisor Ralph Coln, David Boren, Judy Coln, Larry Doran, Jr., Keith Hardwick, Laura Studdard and Scott Dalton.

Booneville man fled officers, police say BOONEVILLE — A Booneville man faces a charge of felony fleeing after being accused of failing to stop for an officer.

William David Scarbrough, 37, of 102 Tidwell Drive, was charged with one count felony fleeing and several misdemeanor charges, said Police Chief Michael Ramey.

Officers attempted

to make a traffic stop on Scarbrough on Lake Street Wednesday, Jan. 6.

“It appears he fled from officers and later was involved in a vehicle accident on Lake Street.

He apparently lost control of his vehicle and struck a tree,” Ramey said.

Both were taken into custody. A female in the vehicle charged with misdemeanor charges.

No one was hurt, he said.

Bond for Scarbrough was set at $5,000.

Work on the program will take place at Orbital ATK’s three facilities including the Iuka location.

Solid propulsion is used in nearly every space launch vehicle, both domestic and international, and plays a key role in U.S. strategic and missile defense systems.

New solid rocket motor technology has the capability to provide a smooth lift for payloads, which is especially important when launching sensitive satellites and crewed missions.

Iuka plant receives prototype funding

Meth charges up in Tippah County

IUKA — Tishomingo County manufacturer, Orbital ATK has received funding for the development of a solid rocket propulsion system prototype.

The $47 million contract from the U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center Launch Systems Directorate will support the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program for national security space missions.

The Air Force award includes options for additional scope, valued at up to $133 million.

The company will also contribute additional development funds to the program.

Orbital ATK’s award is designed to advance proven domestic propulsion technologies and includes prototype development.

RIPLEY — The Tippah County Sheriff’s Department has been working to get crystal methamphetamine off the streets in the county, making 23 arrests since October, according to WTVA. Deputies have seized approximately 130 grams of the drug during those 23 arrests. Most individuals arrested had amounts that suggested personal use. Some suspects had more, up to 30 or 50 grams in some cases.

Arrests related to the drug are numerous around the region.

Drugs seem to vary in popularity from region to region. In counties where this drug isn’t as much of a problem, other drugs such as heroin or cocaine are more prevalent. Despite a

“Disaster Survivor Assistants are some of the first FEMA people you will see on the ground in an area after a disaster has been declared,” said Mike Wade, FEMA External Affairs. “First thing they do is meet with area officials, churches and other people in the community to find out which area was hardest hit. This way they don’t go in blindly.”

The team had meet with Falkner Baptist Church pastor Steve Cohea, who had informed the team of Shonda and her family’s misfortune.

“I had called Bro. Steve about a place to tempo-

rarily rent after the storm and he told me about FEMA,” said Shonda.

The paster said his church had already helped several other families in the area. Several church members including assistant pastor Gerry Goforth had also helped with some clean up efforts in the county following the storm.

“People like Bro. Steve are very important to us at helping get the word out that FEMA is here to help,” added Wade.

As Shonda and her family await word on their federal FEMA grant, they’ll continue to look for a new place to

number of reports citing increased use of heroine in the state, that doesn’t seem to be a problem here. The individuals arrested in Tippah County since October have not yet been tried. Those cases are scheduled to go to a grand jury for indictment in April.

Whispering Woods hosts wedding show OLIVE BRANCH — The Mid-South Wedding Show & Bridal School, the number one bridal show in the Mid-South will return to the Whispering Woods Hotel and Conference Center, located at 7300 Hacks Cross Road in Olive Branch from 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 17.

created dozens of maps of the Delta Region listing vulnerable sites in the area.

The maps can be used by officials to better prepare for floods by determining the locations and conditions of all levees in the Yazoo Basin area, along with the critical facilities--such as hospitals, schools, utility infrastructure and government buildings in each community.

The university hosted a tabletop flood disaster scenario late last year to examine what to do in case of flooding along the Mississippi River.

OXFORD — Emergency responders dealing with breached levees along the Mississippi River have an invaluable tool thanks to Geologists at the University of Mississippi.

HARDEMAN COUNTY, Tenn. — The attorney for a man accused in a deadly shooting in Bolivar reached says there’s a different side to the story.

Attorney D.J. Norton describes why his client, Jammy Harbin, shot and killed a man in a home last Friday.

Norton says the 46-year-old Navy veteran shot and killed 31-yearold Timothy Smith to protect his family.

He says Smith had been assaulting Harbin’s son. Photos show the son with bruising his ribs and face.

The case is still under investigation.

Harbin’s next court appearance is set for March 22 in Hardeman County General Sessions Court.

“We are praying that FEMA can help us, but if they can’t we’ll figure out something else -- my husband has been keeping his pay checks for the last two weeks trying to save up enough for us to rent something else,” added Shonda. “His boss has also helped us out a lot -- he’s actually paying for us a hotel room right now.

This entire experience has been very overwhelming and stressful.

I’m just so thankful that we weren’t home at the time of the storm -- that would have been real bad,” she said.

Shonda says God told her to leave home that late December night.

“I had a feeling that we needed to get out,” she said. “I thank God everyday for that feeling.”

(Survivors with losses are encouraged to register for assistance before going to the disaster recovery center by calling 800-621-3362 or (TTY) 800-462-7585.

Those who use 711-Relay or Video Relay Services can call 800-621-3362 to register. Online registration can be done by computer, tablet, iPhone, Android or other mobile device at DisasterAssistance.gov.)

Around 15 days later, Shonda patiently sat across from three Federal Emergency Management Agency Disaster Survivor Assistants at Falkner Baptist Church in Tippah County.

The FEMA officials were registering Shonda for a federal assistance grant that will hopefully help her displaced family get back to normal.

“We lost everything inside that trailer,” she said.

FEMA learned about the Bridges’ family after arriving in the community earlier this week.

IRS phone scams keep resurfacing; don’t fall prey Scams continue to plague residents in the Crossroads area.

One which keeps raising its ugly head involves the Internal Revenue Service.

It seems we all pay attention when Uncle Sam comes calling, but don’t be fooled because he may want you, but he’s really after your hard-earned money.

A phone scam in which the caller poses as a representative of the IRS resurfaced among local residents once again last week.

Alcorn County Sheriff Ben Caldwell told the Daily Corinthian the county has received a number of complaints on the harassing callers.

“They are either leaving messages or telling them they are with the IRS and they owe the IRS money and a warrant has been issued,” said Caldwell.

According to the IRS, aggressive and sophisticated phone scams are currently targeting people across the county. The scammers often sound convincing as they tell the victim they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to cooperate, they are then threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver’s license.

In many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting. Caldwell said one of the local victims reported the caller made a threat of violence.

“One thing I know is the IRS is not going to call and threaten anybody with a warrant,” noted the sheriff.

Good advice.

The agency will also never require a specific payment method, ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone or threaten to bring in local law enforcement to have the person arrested.

Caldwell said residents are welcome to contact the sheriff’s office with concerns about possible scam calls.

Remember, the IRS isn’t going to call you and demand payment. And never, ever give out credit card information over the phone when someone calls to request it.

Prayer for today My Father, help me to understand the power of nature, that I may be willing to obey her laws. I pray that I may so live that my life will proclaim itself without need of boasting or deception. Forbid that I should spend my life in perfecting trifles, and have no leisure to enjoy thy great gifts. Amen.

A verse to share “But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.”

Lottery exodus raises questions The joke — author unknown — is now so old as to have become a cliché.

Fellow named Tom, who was in financial difficulty, walked into his Methodist church and prayed. ‘”God,” Tom said. “I know I haven’t been perfect but I really need to win the lottery. I don’t have a lot of money. Please help me out.”

He exited the church, a week went by, and he hadn’t won the lottery, so he walked into a synagogue. ‘”Come on, God,” he said.

“I really need this money.

My wife needs surgery and I have bills to pay. Please let me win the lottery.”

He left the synagogue, a week went by, and he still didn’t win the lottery. So, he went to a mosque and started to pray again.

“You’re starting to disappoint me, God,” he said. “I’ve prayed and prayed. If you just let me win the lottery, I’ll be a better person. I don’t have to win the jackpot, just enough to get me out of debt. I’ll give some to charity, even. Just let me win the lottery.” Tom thought this sealed the deal, so he got up and walked outside.

Just then, the clouds parted and a booming voice

said: “Tom, could you at least buy a lottery ticket?”

State Rep. Alyce Clarke, Sid Salter D - J a c k s o n , Columnist gets the joke – but doesn’t find it particularly funny. Rep. Clarke has for more than a decade introduced legislation to bring the lottery to Mississippi only to see the bill killed in the committee system by the influence of the strange political bedfellows who team up to kill it.

Strange political bedfellows? Yes, the state’s casino gaming interests, their business and political friends, and the state’s religious community. I cast no stones at the faithful and I understand naked self-interest on the part of the casinos and those who partner with them.

It’s like watching a local option liquor election beaten by a coalition of bootleggers and preachers.

Every state in the union sanctions the lotteries except Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada, Utah, and Mississippi. People in those

six states have to drive across state lines to buy lottery tickets. And in Mississippi, with a $1.3 billion Powerball available, people are doing so in droves.

Forget that the odds of winning are 1-in-292 million and that ticket buyers are 250 times more likely to be struck by lightning than to win the Powerball.

There’s a sucker born every minute and people have dreams, right?

Rep. Clarke knows those odds and those facts. She’s a solid Christian woman with the highest moral and ethical values. But she sees the lines of cars taking Mississippi lottery players to Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee and Florida to buy lottery tickets and she wonders – each year for a decade now – why a portion of those funds can’t stay in Mississippi to fund highways or education or public health or a host of other needs.

Each year when Clarke files her lottery legislation, legislative colleagues kill this bill and they do so in the name of either protecting the existing casino industry or protecting us from ourselves in terms of religious and moral concerns.

But in Florida, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee, taxpayers aren’t protecting their existing gambling interests. They are, however, selling Mississippians as many lottery tickets as we will buy and reaping the tax revenue from it to address problems in their states.

One piece of information missing from the debate is that Mississippi, in comparison with other states that have commercial casinos, has the third-lowest state gaming tax rate in the country behind only Nevada and New Jersey. Mississippi levies a 12 percent tax rate on gross casino gaming revenues, of which 8 percent goes to the state and 4 percent to local governments. Louisiana levies 21.5 percent, plus another 4 percent local tax.

If the current exodus from Mississippi to surrounding states to play the Powerball doesn’t bolster Rep. Clarke’s lonely quest, it’s likely that nothing ever will. Strange political bedfellows? Indeed.

Hillary Clinton: Slip slidin’ away “Slip slidin’ away Slip slidin’ away You know the nearer your destination The more you’re slip slidin’ away.” — Paul Simon It’s happening again.

The “inevitability” of Hillary Clinton’s presidential candidacy may not be so inevitable after all. Unlike eight years ago when Barack Obama beat her for the Democratic nomination and ultimately won the office Hillary and her supporters believed she was entitled to, this time her main opponent is not just Sen. Bernie Sanders, a socialist, it is Hillary Clinton herself.

Serious media and congressional investigations into Richard Nixon’s Watergate crimes did not begin until after his landslide win in 1972. In Hillary Clinton’s case, damaging investigations are occurring in the middle of her campaign.

Catherine Herridge, chief intelligence correspondent for the Fox News Channel, reports: “The FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of private email as secretary of state has expanded

to look at whether the possible ‘intersection’ of Clinton Foundation work and Cal State DepartThomas ment business may Columnist have violated public corruption laws, three intelligence sources not authorized to speak on the record told Fox News. This track is in addition to the focus on classified material found on Clinton’s personal server.”

As Investors.com notes, “Hillary Clinton’s support among Democrats nationally has taken a serious tumble, falling eight points to 43 percent, according to the latest IBD/TIPP Poll.

Support for her chief rival, Bernie Sanders, rose six points to 39 percent. As a result, Clinton’s lead over Sanders, which had been 18 points, is now just four points.”

According to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist College poll, Clinton and Sanders are in tight races in both

Iowa and New Hampshire.

With less than three weeks before the Iowa caucuses, such numbers are not good news for any candidate, especially Hillary Clinton, whose veracity and job record in the various offices and positions she has held are anything but stellar.

Very quickly, Clinton has gone from big mo, to slow mo, to no mo.

Americans wisely don’t fully trust politicians of either party, but Hillary Clinton suffers more than most.

Last August, a Quinnipiac University poll found that only 34 percent of those Americans surveyed believed Clinton is “honest and trustworthy.” Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the poll, reports CNN.com, said that Clinton is experiencing a “continuing slide” with how she is “perceived by voters who continue to say she is not honest and trustworthy.”

Democrats are likely worried not just about whether Clinton can capture the nomination – and the odds still favor that outcome – but whether she will be further damaged by the FBI

investigations and whether that damage could possibly lead to an indictment, as some Republicans hope.

Donald Trump has added to Clinton’s woes by bringing up her husband’s past behavior toward women at a time when she has positioned herself as the women’s champion.

Voices are being heard among the political classes about the possibility of replacing Clinton on the Democratic ticket with Vice President Joe Biden should that become necessary.

Such a move could severely impair the Democrat’s ability to win the female vote.

In a highly unpredictable political year, the Biden scenario would take unpredictability to a new level.

I saw a bumper sticker recently that proclaimed the driver was “Ready for Hillary.” With the candidate’s disapproval numbers rising and her approval numbers slip slidin’ away, it doesn’t appear that too many other voters are, in fact, ready.

‘Family Tree’ finds skeletons in the closet

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

“The Family Tree: A Lynching in Georgia, A Legacy of Secrets, and My Search for the Truth” by Karen Branan c.2016, Atria $26; 304 pages The skeletons in your closet don’t rattle around much anymore.

Most of your family has long forgotten the secrets those skeletons represented, while the ones who haven’t forgotten have made sure they’re not discussed. And it might stay that way forever unless, as in the new book “The Family Tree”

by Karen Branan, there’s a journalist in the family.

As her ninety-year-old, stillfeisty grandmother lay dying, Karen Branan hoped to record some of her G’mamma’s recollections.

Mostly, she got the usual things: schoolgirl hobbies, gentlemen callers… until G’mamma mentioned a hanging that she’d witnessed as a child.

Branan tucked the story away in her mind, along with other hushed, whispered things that tickled at her memories. Then, nearly ten years after hearing that first hint from a dying woman who embel-

lished her tales, Branan went in search of facts.

What she discovered was something she didn’t want to admit.

While there was always a certain amount of racism in Hamilton , Georgia , there was also evidence that blacks and whites mixed easily, especially in bedrooms and barrooms, and except when it befitted whites to use racism as a tool.

That seemed to be the case in early 1912.

Branan’s great-grandfather was town sheriff then, when his kin, a well-liked local white rapscallion, was shot dead on the front porch of a black woman’s home. Days later, the woman and three men went peacefully with the sheriff to jail; they had no reason to mistrust him because he didn’t arrest them.

He took them in, he said, for their own safety and he seemed to have tried to protect them. But Branan discovered that the whole thing was contrived: in the end, the sheriff purposefully stepped away, shielding himself and leaving the prisoners unsafe. Around midnight on January 23, 1912, a mob marched the four through town and hung them from a tree - and life in Hamilton went on as usual

until an unexpected faction put a stop to what became an escalation of violence…

Reading “The Family Tree” is somewhat like looking for tomatoes in a field of weeds: you know there’s something worthwhile there, but you must possess patience to find it. You have to want to step over what you don’t need.

Sadly, what you probably don’t need comprises much of this book: author Karen Branan digs up names, names, and more names, which serve to lay the territory in her memoir, but which become just fluff to anybody who didn’t live in Harris County, Georgia.

That, of course, is the reason for the title, but it’s overwhelming.

The worthiness here lies in what you’ll read otherwise: actions that are incomprehensible today but shockingly common a century ago, heroism, legendary bravery, and a journalist who freely admits that she didn’t even know what she didn’t know.

Now, for me, the latter outdid the former, but I was willing to wait for it to happen. You may not be; start “The Family Tree,” and you may become impatient. Or start it, and you may be rattled.

50th anniversary There will be a reception to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of Jerry and Judy Palmer of Rienzi on Saturday, Jan. 23, from 5-7 p.m. at Rienzi Baptist Church. No gifts, please. Jerry and Judy were married on Jan. 22, 1966, at Hinkle Baptist Church. They are the parents of Tracey Palmer Maness (Ricky) of Corinth, Daniel Palmer of Acworth, Ga., and David Palmer (Mendi) of Little Rock, Ark. Jerry and Judy also have six grandchildren, Tyler (Erica), Tate, Tanner, and Kerrigan Maness; Carson and Hudson Palmer; and two great-grandchildren, Lucy and Jayce Maness.

REPAIRS CONTINUED FROM 1A

Department of Archives and History to seal the concrete on the historic building, but approval may be unlikely because of the stringent requirements for historic structures. If approved, sealing the concrete would alleviate the recurring expense.

The project would include some mortar repairs on the historic portion of the building and, to a lesser extent, on the 1954 portion.

“Anytime there is open mortar or loose mortar joints, it’s going to allow water to get in, and that water is going to seep through,” said Childress.

Structural repair may be

needed in a couple of spots where brick has pushed out. Some brick facings also need work, as well as the front entrance planters that have lost the mortar that held them in place.

The district will also have the glass block walls fixed. Some matching glass blocks, apparently from another glass block wall taken down sometime in the past, are available to replace the broken glass blocks.

The exterior work can be completed while school is in session.

The district recently had repairs done on an old coal-burning chimey that was causing issues for the former high school building.

Associated Press

In a new memoir, “My Time with the Kings: A Reporter’s Recollections of Martin, Coretta and the Civil Rights Movement,” retired Associated Press reporter Kathryn Johnson describes civil rights flashpoints she covered in the 1960s and details her close relationship with the movement’s leader, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., and his family.

As the nation marks the King holiday, here is an excerpt from Johnson’s book, http://www. ap.org/books/my-timewith-the-kings/index. html, in which she recalls an in-depth talk with King at his dining room table with his wife Coretta and, years later, her last interview with him, shortly before his assassination.

1964 On a fiercely cold winter night in 1964, I was trudging alongside the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. as he led a group of striking marchers at Scripto, a pen and pencilmanufacturing plant near downtown Atlanta.

Bundled in a heavy coat, my teeth chattering from the cold, I asked King the usual questions: “How much pay raise are they asking? Where are negotiations at this point?

Do you plan to continue striking?”

Scripto workers had

walked off the job, demanding equal pay with whites for skilled and nonskilled work. King sympathized with the strikers, many of whom were members of his church. The straggly little group hurrying along the cold, dark city street drew little media attention except from one or two local TV reporters (and myself, from the AP).

By sheer luck, that assignment led to my meeting later in the privacy of the King home and to my personal introduction to his incredible gifts as an orator.

King, ending the freezing march at 11:15 p.m., told me, “This is a dangerous section of town. Let me escort you to your car.”

When we reached my car several blocks away, I offered to drive him home. At that time, the Kings lived on nearby Johnson Street.

As I stopped the car to let King out, his wife, Coretta, pregnant with their last child, came to the door and said, “Come on in and have some hot coffee. You’ll warm up.”

King led me to a phone in his office, and I quickly called in my strike story.

I then joined the couple at their dining room table, sipping coffee and talking about what had become known as the Movement.

I’d long been impressed with King’s personal magnetism and flow of words

at news conferences, but sitting at their table late that night, I was struck by his simple brilliance as a leader. His ability to put into words the longings, the hopes and dreams of his people, their anguish and their cry for human dignity, clearly was a great gift.

After that night — although King was known for never calling reporters by their first names — he always called me Kathryn.

King was to me a young, well-educated Baptist minister who came out of the Jim Crow churches of the South preaching brotherhood and nonviolence. But it was into a land filled with violence.

Blacks were being beaten, lynched and terrorized by Ku Klux Klansmen who drove into their neighborhoods wearing their long white robes and hooded masks to frighten them.

King, too, had been threatened — a bomb had been thrown at his home in Montgomery, Alabama, and later in Atlanta, Klan night riders had burned a cross in his front yard.

It was 1:15 a.m. before I left the King home, and both King and Coretta stood at the door waiting until I drove off.

At home that morning, I took a breakfast tray into the den so that I could watch TV news.

When the Scripto strike story came on, my moth-

er, spotting me as the only white person in the crowd and walking alongside King, questioning him, said, “Honey, be careful.

I’m afraid someday someone’s going to try to kill that man.”

thing that wasn’t in existence before is also very liberating.

■ Get some shut-eye — Sleep deprivation can effect our entire bodies. So, be sure you are getting enough restorative rest.

For those with insomnia or trouble getting relaxing, melatonin has been shown to bring a more restful night’s sleep, but should only be used under the care of a physician.

■ Practice good nutrition — Consuming the right foods has been proven to increase energy levels and combat symptoms of depression and fatigue.

■ Set the mood you want — Candles and wax warmers add a warm glow and can fill our homes with fragrant, uplifting scents.

■ Stay hydrated — Our bodies cannot function properly without water and thirst often masquerades as hunger. Drinking enough water is not only essential to our vital organs, but it also helps to flush out toxins.

■ Change out your decor — We are creatures who respond to our environments. By lightening up our environment, we lighten up our spirits as well. No one wants to be stuck in a dark, depressing room. So, opt for lighter, happier colors.

Adding indoor plants is also a great touch as it

brings feelings of new life into our homes. Something as small as changing out dark throw pillows or a comforter in favor of brighter, more vibrant colors can make a huge difference.

■ Dress appropriately — When we are cold, we hunched over and tend to hold our breath. By dressing in warm layers, we not only make ourselves more comfortable, but our breathing becomes less labored.

■ Enjoy a nice warm bath — There’s nothing like a good soak in the tub to warm the cockles of the heart. Epsom salt and various essential oils can be added to soothe tired achy muscles, relax the body or uplift the spirit.

■ Shake up your wardrobe — Add some flair to winter fashions by investing in a colorful new scarf or pulling out your favorite pair of comfy boots.

■ Make time for yourself — Use the winter season as a time of reflection and enjoy some “me” time. Have an at-home spa day, enjoy, curl up with a good book or enjoy a favorite movie — whatever makes you happy.

■ Tackle indoor projects — Take advantage of being inside by completing interior chores and projects such as painting organizing and purging.

While it is getting dark a lot sooner, remember that you have the same 24 hours in the day, just not as bright. This time of year, it really isn’t convenient be doing stuff outside, so why not make the most of it when you have to stay in anyway?

■ Spend time with loved ones — As human beings, we hunger for visceral face-to-face connections which we often miss out on by hiding behind our cellphones or other devices. Technology tends to isolate us and close us off to others so it is important to power down and enjoy the time we have with others whether it be sitting down to a nice meal, a nice glass of wine or a cup of coffee. This is a wonderful time of year for get-togethers and group activities because even the smallest of tasks can be improved with company.

■ Take advantage of local offerings — Check out that yoga, dance or martial arts class you’ve always wanted to join, but never found the time.

The Alcorn County Extension Office and the Alcorn County Career and Technology Center offer a variety of classes and are excellent resources for those interested in art, photography, fitness, quilting, welding, computers and many other subject areas.

1968 Clad in a neat, dark suit and sitting comfortably in a swivel chair in his office with its dingy green walls and bare floors, Martin Luther King didn’t seem like the revolutionary leader he was.

I had no idea that this would be my last interview with him — it was in 1968, not long before he was assassinated.

King had begun speaking of President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society — the president’s lifelong dream to revitalize our big cities, protect natural resources and guarantee educational opportunities for all. But that great hope, King told me, was being shot down in the rice paddies of Vietnam.

“A few years ago was a shining moment in the civil rights struggle,” he said. “Then came the buildup in Vietnam, and I watched the program broken as if it were an idle plaything of a society gone mad with war.”

The nation’s focus was on the war, and King’s fierce distaste for it kept recurring. “The war must be stopped,” he said. ...

No trace of missing boy after two days JACKSON, Tenn. — Officials are continuing to search for a missing 2-year-old boy in West Tennessee who wandered away from his grandmother.

Noah Chamberlin has been missing since Thursday afternoon while walking in the woods in the Pinson community with his grandmother and sister.

The Jackson Sun reported that the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has set up a command post at the Pinson Fire Station to assist in the search.

More than 300 volunteers showed up Friday night to aid in the search but no sign of the boy was found and it was called off around midnight. Â

Man dresses as old woman for photo op CRANSTON, R.I. — A city official who wanted to include an elderly woman in a photo op about a snow shoveling program persuaded a middle-aged man to dress up in a wig, earrings, lipstick and a dress.

The man stood next to the mayor of Cranston at a news conference touting the program and wore a name tag that said “Cranston Senior Home Resident.�

WJAR-TV uncovered the ruse in reports this week.

It is unclear why officials decided to use a stand-in for a woman during the Jan. 5 news conference, which was held at the senior center where the man worked as a van driver.

Sue Stenhouse, the city’s director of senior services, organized the news conference. She resigned last week, according to Rob Coupe, the city’s director of administration. Â

Man wins $2 million in 1st lottery game Lottery officials say a 19-year-old central Florida man and first time lottery player used the numbers off someone else’s unpurchased Power ticket to win $2 million.

Frederick Walker said there was already a

completed play slip at the Sav-A-Ton in Lake Mary where he purchased his ticket and decided to try his hand using those numbers.

He matched five numbers in Wednesday’s drawing to win $1 million, but added an extra feature which doubled his prize to $2 million.

This recent series of Powerball rollovers has generated historically high jackpots, causing a bit of lottery fever across the country.

A small-town Tennessee couple bought one of three magic tickets splitting the world-record $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot. But no one has produced the other winning tickets sold in Florida and California. Â

Slow start for NY’s marijuana program WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — When medical marijuana became available this month in New York, Brittany Barger was one of the first patients to navigate the state’s rules and make it through a dispensary door. “When you’re as sick as I am, you’ll try anything,� said Barger, who has ovarian cancer that has spread through her 27-year-old body.

New York’s program — one of the strictest out of the 23 states that allow medical marijuana — has had a widely anticipated slow beginning, but there are signs it’s gaining momentum.

The state Health Department says more than 165 patients have now qualified, a figure that’s more than doubled in a week but is still just a sliver of the potential patient pool.

More than 225 doctors have now taken the state-required training, up from about 150 last week. Â

Obama signs order in Flint water crisis DETROIT — President Barack Obama signed an emergency declaration Saturday that clears the way for federal aid for Flint, Michigan, which is undergoing a drinking water crisis.

The White House also said the Federal Emergency Management Agency will coordinate

Across the State

all disaster relief efforts to “alleviate the hardship and suffering� on residents. FEMA has been authorized to provide water, filters, cartridges and other items for 90 days. Flint can get up to $5 million in direct funding, though the state must match 25 percent and more money can come through an act of Congress.

Republican Gov. Rick Snyder requested emergency and disaster declarations late Thursday, saying needs “far exceed the state’s capability,� and added that emergency measures could cost $41 million.

Snyder said Saturday that Obama denied the disaster declaration request based on the legal requirement that such relief is intended for natural events, fires, floods or explosions. Â

Obama: Revamp jobless insurance WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Saturday proposed changes to the U.S. unemployment insurance system that he says would offer more security to the jobless and encourage experienced workers to rejoin the workforce, even if it means taking a pay cut. “We shouldn’t just be talking about unemployment; we should be talking about re-employment,� Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address.

The president’s proposal would require states to provide wage insurance to workers who lose their jobs and find new employment at lower pay. The insurance would replace half of the lost income, up to $10,000 over two years. It would be available to workers who were with their prior employer for three years and make less than $50,000 in their new job.

The proposal also would require states to make unemployment insurance available to many part-time and lowincome workers, and it would mandate that states provide at least 26 weeks of unemployment insurance. Nine states fall short of the benchmark, the White House said.

Election challenges may be solved soon JACKSON — Mississippi legislators could soon resolve two election disputes that have lingered since early November.

Attorneys made closing arguments Friday to committees considering candidates’ requests to overturn results of one House race that went to a tiebreaker and one Senate race that a former lawmaker won by 64 votes.

Chairmen said a Senate committee could make a recommendation Monday to the full Senate, and a House committee could send findings to the full House on Tuesday.

Democratic Rep. Bo Eaton of Taylorsville and Republican challenger Mark Tullos of Raleigh tied in District 79 in Smith and Jasper counties. Eaton won by drawing straws, but Tullos says the election never should have been tied because he believes some improper votes were counted. Â

1 of 2 men found shot on road dies HOLLY SPRINGS — One of two Marshall County men found shot on a rural road has died, while the other remains in critical condition.

Marshall County Coroner James Anderson says 34-year-old Jamon Moton and 31-year-old Will A. Phillips were found on a road northwest of Holly Springs Friday night by a passing motorist.

Each man was shot once in the head. Anderson says it’s unclear if the men were shot on the road.

Marshall County Sheriff Kenny Dickerson says Phillips died where he was found late Friday night. Moton was taken by helicopter to Regional Medical Center in Memphis, Tennessee.

Dickerson says one of the men borrowed a black Dodge Charger found burned about three miles from where the men were found.

Dickerson says at least one other person was in the car. Â

Additional counties eligible for public aid OXFORD — The Fed-

eral Emergency Management Agency has declared three more Mississippi counties eligible for public assistance after December’s deadly tornadoes.

FEMA on Friday said Coahoma, Panola and Quitman counties were approved for all categories of assistance including debris removal. Benton, Marshall and Tippah counties were previously approved.

Gov. Phil Bryant thanked FEMA for its quick response to the state’s request for the additional aid, which he says will help the state begin long-term recovery from the storms.

Under the program, typically, the federal share is 75 percent with the remaining 25 percent split between state and local governments at 12.5 percent each.

Damage assessments continue in several counties to determine eligibility for public and individual assistance. Â

Animal control seeks registration program JACKSON — Jackson pet owners may soon have to pay up if the city implements a mandatory pet registration program.

The Clarion-Ledger reports concerns about a Dec. 18 attack by feral dogs at the Jackson zoo that left six animals dead brought renewed interest to the issue of dogs roaming loose in the city.

Jackson Animal Control Manager Paul Perry says he’s been developing a proposal that would require pet owners to register their animals with the city and pay a fee. He didn’t specify an amount.

Perry says he wants lower fees for owners who have had their pets spayed and neutered — which animal control provides at no cost for animals adopted from the city’s shelter — as a way to combat overpopulation. Â

School wants to fire teacher after attack JACKSON — School officials say they will seek to fire a teacher who body-slammed a student into the pavement outside a high school.

Freddrick Murray, chief academic officer for high schools at Jackson Pub-

lic Schools, tells local media that video of the Friday incident posted by a student is “very compelling.�

It shows a Jim Hill High School teacher picking up a student and throwing the student to the ground.

Murray says security officers were called after the student was aggressive toward a teacher.

However, Murray says the student was under control when the teacher attacked him. He says officials could also pursue criminal charges. Â

Police investigating deaths of mom, son MCCOMB — McComb police are investigating the deaths of a mother and son found shot inside their house.

Police say a family member found the bodies of 64-year-old Barbra Butler Conerly and 33-yearold Shawn M. Butler, both with gunshot wounds, on Friday morning.

Detective Shannon Sullivan told The Enterprise-Journal that the pair probably died hours before their bodies were discovered. He says the bodies were found in different areas of the house.

Police Chief Scott McKenzie says the house showed no signs of forced entry. He says police are treating the case as a double homicide. Â

Latin Kings member charged with murder LUCEDALE — A documented member of the Latin Kings street gang used a hammer to beat to death a transgender teen who once considered him a boyfriend.

A George County grand jury indicted 28-yearold Joshua Vallum in the killing of 17-year-old Mercedes Williamson, of Theodore, Alabama.

Williamson’s death made national news last year when Caitlyn Jenner remembered her during an acceptance speech for the Arthur Ashe award at the ESPY awards.

The Sun Herald reported that Vallum was transferred Friday from the East Central Mississippi Correctional Facility to the Jackson County jail to undergo a mental evaluation. He was to return to the prison in Meridian once the examination was completed.

Holiday sales rise 3 percent, miss forecast

BY ANNE D’INNOCENZIO AP Retail Writer

NEW YORK — Holiday shoppers flocked online during the critical holiday shopping season, but overall sales in November and December were disappointing.

Sales rose 3 percent to about $626.14 billion, according to The National Retail Federation. That’s below the forecast for a 3.7 percent gain the group had expected.

The group blamed the shortfall on unusually warm weather that led to

bigger-than-planned discounts on clothing and other cold-weather items.

It also pointed out that stores don’t have the ability to raise prices in a still tough spending environment, leading to worsethan-expected deflation in electronics like TVs and other categories.

The disappointing total holiday sales figure underscores challenges for retailers ahead as shoppers continue to shift away from physical stores and research and buy online. Indeed, online sales, which are included in the figure, rose 9 percent to $105 billion. That’s higher than the group’s original forecast of 6 percent to 8 percent growth.

“Make no mistake about it, this was a tough holiday season for the industry,” said Matthew Shay, National Retail Federation’s CEO. The holiday season is a crucial period of retailers because it accounts for as much as 40 percent of retailer’s annual sales. But the season has exposed the challenges retailers

now face as more shoppers move their purchases online.

While many retailers have said online sales surged during the holiday season, there are tradeoffs. Online shoppers tend to be more targeted when they buy, and typically buy only what they need on their list. Stores still need shoppers in the store because there’s a big opportunity for them to buy other items.

At the same time, the shift online is forcing stores to rethink the size of their stores and how big their entire fleet should be. In response to heavy competition from online leader Amazon. com, major stores have been investing in bigger distribution centers to speed up online deliveries and push free shipping.

Against this background, several major stores have announced they are closing stores. Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world’s largest retailer, said it is closing 269 stores globally, including 159 in the U.S. as it looks to retool its business.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian The Daily Corinthian family of quality magazines continues on Saturday, Jan. 30, with the presentation of Crossroads Magazine — Healthy Living edition.

Grandparents can’t hide shock over kindergartner’s makeup DEAR ABBY: Our son and his wife have blessed us with a darling 6-year-old granddaughter, “Sophie,” who is the love of our lives.

We live nearby and are very close.

When we received her kindergarten school photo, she had on heavy lipstick and light eye Abigail shadow.

My husVan Buren band and I couldn’t Dear Abby contain our shock.

Her parents said they thought she looked beautiful, and Sophie was made up that way because “she wanted to.”

We were speechless.

When we pick her up on weekends, she sometimes wears makeup, too.

It makes her look like a 30-year-old.

We think that wearing it while playing dress-up is fun, but doing it outside the home takes away from her natural beauty.

What are your thoughts on this? -- TAKEN ABACK IN KANSAS DEAR TAKEN ABACK: Forgive me if this seems oldfashioned, but I think that a kindergartener should be allowed to remain a child for at least a

few years.

I’m not only surprised that your son and daughter-in-law would send their 6-year-old to school wearing makeup, I am equally surprised that the school would allow it.

And when Sophie spends the weekend with you, don’t you think YOU should make the rules about whether she’s allowed to wear makeup?

Someone has to draw the line, but when you do, be prepared for some battles.

DEAR ABBY: My mother passed away a few weeks ago.

She lived with my husband and me for the last 2 1/2 years of her life, and I was her caregiver.

The week after she passed, my husband did not stay home even one day with me.

It was the loneliest, saddest time I have ever experienced.

I feel he should have stayed with me without my having to ask him. He says all I had to do was ask.

Frankly, I don’t think it was up to me to ask to be comforted.

Who do you think is right? -GRIEVING IN CLEARWATER, FLA. DEAR GRIEVING: Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved mother.

You were a loving, caring daughter and, I’m sure, a comfort to her in her last years.

It is sad that you and your husband have such a poor level

of communication.

You should not have had to ask him to remain by your side in your hour of need.

He promised to do that at the altar, and from where I sit, he failed you.

DEAR ABBY: I am a woman married to a woman.

Recently we attended her family reunion. Her first cousins (all female) decided to have a meeting. When my wife returned from the discussion, her mom asked her what it was about.

My wife replied that they were planning a trip with just the female cousins -- no men. I feel hurt and excluded, as I am a woman, too.

Am I wrong? I can understand not wanting husbands on an allgirl trip, but am I not the exception? -- OUT OF THE LOOP IN ALBERTA, CANADA DEAR OUT: No. This trip is for cousins only; no spouses.

Although all the other spouses are men, you are not a cousin, so stop looking for reasons to be hurt.

My advice is to let it go.

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). All is as it should be. You’ll give priority to the youngest and smallest human being in your care and the rest will fall into a natural, logical order. If only every day were so simple!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You’re driven to do what the others are doing and this will stir up mixed feelings. On the one hand, at least a road map is attainable.

On the other hand, it will be challenging to make your work stand out from the rest.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’re comfortable with “full blast” mode, and so are the others you’re working and playing with today. Just don’t be surprised if their version of “full blast” only goes to about half what yours does.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Don’t worry; it’s not narcissistic to assume that someone likes being liked by you. You’re actually just reading the obvious signs and finding a classic interpretation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s like you’re engaging fate in an armwrestling match. Do you think you can win this one? Well, you can. This is not a case of fixed destiny. Get strong; get leverage, and believe.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Today’s victory will be quiet and personal, perhaps not even suitable to share with anyone you know, if only because most people wouldn’t understand the nuanced profundity of it. But you know. That’s what counts.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

What can you do to lower the stress level? It wouldn’t be so hard, really. All you have to do is be bold enough for a few moments to either ask for help or be slightly more assertive about enforcing your boundaries.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You’ll apply your artistic talent to things that most people don’t think of as being artistic endeavors. As a result, you’ll get a special quality of attention and gain a few fans.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You need time to sit around and do nothing. Otherwise your head will get so crammed with the responsibilities and busywork of ordinary life that it won’t have any room to be brilliant.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You still feel like you have to repay someone for a past kindness (or for extended years of kindnesses), but you don’t. If you’re happy and productive, that is payment enough.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Somehow the people around you seem to think you’re interruptible and eager to respond to their every want. You’re not as eager as they think, but, you have to admit, it’s nice to be needed.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You may find yourself craving solitude that is not coming anytime soon -- that is, unless you chisel out bits of it from your crowded life. It will be worth the effort, as there’s a knotty problem you need to reason out in a solo moment.

Eighty-five and counting.

That’s how many goals 4th-year Corinth Lady Warrior head soccer coach Cameron Glenn has logged for senior Sierra Maness.

The recent East Central Community College signee reached a huge milestone last Friday against Ripley, collecting her 100th career varsity goal.

She had 19 goals in some 37 games when Glenn gladly filled the girls’ coaching void.

“Back when I made the decision to move from Horn Lake to Corinth, having a young up and coming 9th grader named Sierra Maness on my roster for the next four years played a role in that decision,” said Glenn.

Glenn also has his milestone moment earlier in the season with his Photo by Taylor Coombs/Corinth School District 150th career varsity win — a 12-0 deci- Soccer coaches Gregg Parker (left) and Cameron sion over Byhalia on Dec. 4, 2015.

Free throws cost McNairy Central boys; girls routed

BY JEFF YORK For Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. — Critical missed free throws and failure to rebound a missed free throw with seven seconds left in the game proved to be the downfall for McNairy Central in its 54-50 loss to Lexington on Friday.

Trailing 50-47, McNairy tied the game at 50-50 when Brandon Walker sank three free throws with 38 seconds remaining in the game. He had been fouled

on a three-point try.

Lexington’s Kylin Johnson scored with 28 seconds left to put LHS up 52-50.

MCHS failed to score again after Walker hit his free throws.

McNairy missed two free throws with 19 seconds left that would have tied the game. Keenan Davis grabbed the rebound on the second miss, but his shot was blocked and Lexington picked up the loose ball.

Johnson hit one free throw with seven

ticks on the clock to make it 53-50 and LHS rebounded his miss on the second try to put the game away.

Walker was outstanding inside the final two minutes scoring the Bobcats final eight points, but it was not enough to pull out the victory. He finished with a gamehigh 21 points.

The contest was close throughout with the Bobcats taking a 23-22 lead into halftime. Lexington took advantage of MCHS missing key free throws in the

fourth quarter to secure the district win.

LHS outscored McNairy 19-14 in the fourth quarter.

Walker’s 21 was followed by Vinnie White with 10, Davis with eight points, Jeremiah Sanders contributed seven, and Travon McClendon scored four points.

The Bobcats will go on the road to face Fayette-Ware on Tuesday.

paid off.”

Webb currently leads the 10-6-1 Lady Warriors with 11 assists.

She ranks second only to Maness in goals (10) and points (31) while logging 845 minutes on the pitch.

She appeared in 24 games last season, scoring five goals and handing out a pair of assists.

Maness, who recently recorded her 100th career varsity goal, will remain a Lady Warrior when she begins play in Decatur.

“I know that college coaches have been circling overhead for quite some time about the

prospect of bringing Sierra in,” said Glenn.

“She’s a valuable commodity in the soccer world. Her speed, athleticism, and ability to score multiple goals each game really caught a lot of people’s eye.”

Maness has a teamhigh 23 goals through Friday’s action. She’s also recorded eight assists for a team-high 54 points.

“She’s made a great decision to go play for a good program at ECCC and Coach Massey has to be counting the days to when she steps on campus,” said Glenn. “Really proud to see Sierra fulfill the potential that existed in her.”

Tennessee defeats Mississippi State

BY PAUL JONES Associated Press

STARKVILLE, Miss. — Tennessee needed a spark this weekend on the road, having dropped three of its first four SEC games.

Even with senior Armani Moore not available, head coach Rick Barnes found his offense elsewhere.

Tennessee’s Kevin Punter and Detrick Mostella combined for 47 points and the Volunteers held off Mississippi State 80-75 on Saturday.

“This was as good of a team win as you could have,” said Barnes. “Everyone in the game contributed in some way.

We’ve led every game at halftime in the SEC and I told our guys that Mississippi State would make a push. We had to respond to it and we did.

“Kevin Punter was terrific and Detrick hit some big shots. It was just a good team win.”

It marked the first road win of the season for the Volunteers (9-8, 2-3 SEC).

Mostella had a game-high 24 points while Punter had 23 points and five assists.

Mississippi State (7-9, 0-4) is off to a 0-4 start in SEC play for the first time since 1992-93.

Mississippi State was led by freshman Quinndary Weatherspoon, who made his first career start in the SEC. Weatherspoon had a career-best 23 points while Gavin Ware had 21 points and 10 rebounds for the Bulldogs.

It was Ware’s fifth dou-

ble-double of the season and the 17th double-double of his career. Ware has now scored in double digits in 16 straight games to open the season.

Tennessee shot 47 percent for the game and made 10 of 23 threepointers and had just eight turnovers. Mississippi State shot just 42.4 percent from the floor and 5 of 19 beyond the arc.

“Obviously, it was a disappointing loss,” Mississippi State coach Ben Howland said. “We got down by double digits again and fought back. But I take full responsibility. I thought our zone would help us win some games but it hasn’t worked out that way.

“Our guys wanted to play man (in the second half) and that is what I believe in. We got away (from the zone) and we are going to live and die with our man defense. Our kids prefer that but we got to play aggressively without fouling.”

The Bulldogs held a 4031 rebounding advantage, including a 17-8 advantage on the offensive boards.

Tennessee held the second-half lead for the duration and led by as many as 11 in the second half. A layup by Weatherspoon cut the Tennessee lead to 60-59 with 5:15 left but the Bulldogs would get no closer.

Tennessee used its perimeter shooting to take control in the first half.

The Volunteers trailed 9-8 in the opening minutes

but reeled off 13 unanswered points, including a trio of 3-pointers, to grab a 21-9 lead with 13:23 left in the first half.

Mississippi State managed to cut the deficit to 29-24 following a 3-pointer from I.J. Ready. But the Volunteers finished off the half with their sixth 3-pointer and held a 38-27 lead at halftime.

Weatherspoon was 8 of 15 from the floor and 3 of 5 on 3-pointers. Malik Newman and Ready each had six assists for Mississippi State.

“Q (Weatherspoon) is one of our five best players,” said Howland. “So starting him tonight, this was the right team to do it against because Tennessee was playing small. I am not sure if he can do it every night but regardless, he is going to play major minutes.”

Tennessee shot 50 percent in the first half, including 6 of 14 beyond the arc. The Bulldogs managed just 35.7 shooting in

the first half and were just 2 of 9 on 3-pointers.

Tips-Ins Tennessee: Senior forward Armani Moore did not play Saturday after injuring his ankle on Wednesday in the Volunteers’ loss at Georgia.

Moore entered the weekend as the Volunteers’ second-leading scorer at 12.4 points a game.

Mississippi State: On Saturday, the Bulldogs wore throw-back uniforms to honor an all-white 1963 squad that had to escape town in order to play an integrated Loyola (Illlinois) team in the Bulldogs’ first-ever NCAA Tournament. Also on Saturday, the Bulldogs recognized the 1991 squad, a group that won the SEC regularseason championship and the program’s first SEC title since the 1963 squad.

Titans keeping Mularkey

BY TERESA M. WALKER Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans are keeping Mike Mularkey as their coach.

The man who handled the final nine games after the team fired Ken Whisenhunt this season was chosen Saturday, just hours after the Titans wrapped up their fourth

and final interview for the job.

Controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk said Mularkey won the job with his vision for the Titans and how he handled the final two months of the season as an interim coach.

Mularkey was 2-7 in nine games after Whisenhunt went 3-20 in his tenure before being fired Nov. 3.

Allen propels Florida past Mississippi

BY CHRIS BURROWS Associated Press

OXFORD, Miss. — Florida coach Michael White knew his return to Mississippi was going to be a story. But it was freshman point guard KeVaughn Allen that stole the show Saturday night.

Allen, in a dominating individual performance, scored 27 points as Florida defeated Ole Miss 80-71. In the process, the Gators (11-6, 3-2 Southeastern Conference) got their first league win in three tries, ended a seven-game home winning streak for the Rebels and made it a happy homecoming return for White.

“It’s great because it’s a road win in the SEC over a major opponent,” said White, who spent 11 years at Ole Miss as a player and assistant coach. “But to play

like this, in this environment and it’s an awesome environment, is a huge win for us.”

Allen finished 9 of 11 from the field, 6 of 7 from 3-point range and added six rebounds. The balanced Florida attack featured Dorian Finney-Smith with 17 points, Kasey Hill with 11 while John Egbunu added 10.

“The one guy (Allen) you can’t leave open is the one guy that took control of the game,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said.

“He’s really good. Florida had struggled on the road and needed confidence. We fueled that in the opening four minutes.”

The Gators were never seriously threatened, racing to a 15-2 lead in the opening four minutes. Florida held a 49-30 halftime advantage, led by Allen’s 20 points and the Rebels never closed within double dig-

its until the final minute.

Stefan Moody, limited by early foul trouble, led the Rebels (125, 2-3) with 22 points. Sebastian Saiz and Rasheed Brooks added 17 and 14 points, respectively.

Ole Miss was 25 of 56 (45 percent) but struggled from 3-point range, hitting 5 of 20 (25 percent).

Florida dominated the boards, outrebounding the Rebels 3929, including a game-high 10 from Finney-Smith. The Gators were 24 of 49 (49 percent) from the field, including 11 of 20 from 3-point range.

“The fast start was huge,” White said. “Allen is a streaky shooter. We’ve seen him hit like that in practice, but when he shoots like that in a game and we play solid defensively like we did tonight, I’m encouraged about what we can do.”

Happy Homecoming White acknowledged extended applause from the Ole Miss crowd with a wave during pregame introductions. White was a four-year starter at point guard for the Rebels, leading them to a pair of SEC Western Division titles and three NCAA Tournament appearances from 1996-99. He also served as an Ole Miss assistant coach for seven years, the final five under current head coach Andy Kennedy.

“Andy is a great coach and his staff and I put a lot of sweat equity iat Ole Miss,” White said.

“I love this place. Always have.

Always will. It was great to see a lot of familiar faces, too, but it was really great because Florida won.”

Tip-Ins

Florida: Allen turned in a dominant first half performance with 20 points on 7 of 8 shooting, 5 of 6 from 3-point range, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, a steal and no turnovers as the Gators built an insurmountable lead. ..Chris Chiozza had eight assists in the first half ..Egbunu had three dunks and layup in the opening 10 minutes.

Ole Miss: Moody, who leads the SEC at 24.4 ppg, has scored 20-plus points in 12 straight games, but struggled with six turnovers. ...Brooks had eight rebounds, two assists and a steal to complement his 14-point performance.

Patriots to 5th straight AFC title game; Cards win Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady took off for the end zone and dived for the pylon, taking a helmet in the back as his body sailed over the goal line.

The ball stayed out, but it didn’t matter. The reigning Super Bowl MVP carried it in for a score on the next play, reaching over the line to convert in a way Kansas City couldn’t Saturday.

Brady threw for two touchdowns to Rob Gronkowski and sneaked for another, and the defending Super Bowl champions reached their fifth straight AFC title game with a 27-20 victory over the Chiefs.

New England (13-4) will meet the winner of Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Denver Broncos for a spot in Super Bowl 50.

The Patriots are trying to become the first team to win backto-back NFL titles since they did it in 2003-04.

“It’s pretty special to get back to another AFC championship game,” said Brady, who will play in his 10th conference title game. “It’s pretty cool. It’s hard to do, man. You’ve got to grind throughout the entire year.

There’s only four teams playing next week and we’re one of them. That game means a lot.”

After spending the last two weeks recovering from knee and back injuries, Gronkowski caught seven passes for 83 yards, including touchdowns from 8 and 16 yards out. Gronkowski also recovered an onside kick after Kansas City cut the deficit to 27-20 with just over one minute left.

Julian Edelman returned from a broken foot to catch 10 passes for 100 yards for New England.

Danny Amendola had two catches for 18 yards.

“It’s just great to have those guys back,” Gronkowski said.

“They’re hard workers, they’re

great players. The chemistry was clicking tonight.”

Alex Smith completed 29 of 50 passes for 246 yards and one touchdown for Kansas City (126). The Chiefs had won 11 consecutive games, including a 30-0 victory over Houston in the wildcard round last week for their first playoff victory since 1993.

Brady led New England to a score on the opening drive, throwing 11 straight passes and completing eight — the last an 8-yard score to Gronkowski. The Chiefs then made it to the Patriots 16, but settled for a field goal.

After trading punts twice, the Patriots started on their when punt returner Danny Amendola was flagged for a helmet-first hit to coverage man Jamell Fleming. The drive was in danger of stalling at the Kansas City 35 when Chiefs linebacker Dezman Moses hit Brady late and was called for roughing the passer.

The stadium erupted in cheers

of “Brady!” — just as it had four months ago when the four-time Super Bowl champion returned from his looming “Deflategate” suspension to play in the season opener.

Four plays later, unable to find an open receiver, Brady sprinted — sort of — for the corner of the end zone. The Chiefs managed to keep him out, but only for one more play. On the next snap, Brady leaned forward and reached into the end zone to make it 14-3.

“I thought I could try to make it. We were close. Not close enough, but we got in on the next play,” said Brady, who shrugged off the two big hits on that drive.

“It’s football season, so there’s bumps and bruises, but you’ve got to fight through those.”

the winning touchdown on the third play of overtime Saturday night, taking a 5-yard pass from Carson Palmer that lifted Arizona past Green Bay 26-20 after Aaron Rodgers sent the game to an extra period with a desperation 41-yard touchdown pass to Jeff Janis on the final play of regulation.

Fitzgerald turned a short pass into a 75-yard gain on the first play of overtime to set up the winning score. Fitzgerald caught eight passes for 176 yards.

The Cardinals, the NFC’s No. 2 seed, thought they had won until Rodgers, in a play reminiscent of Green Bay’s win over Detroit this season, took the snap with 5 seconds to play, scrambled and threw to the end zone.

The 6-foot-3 Janis, a backup Cardinals 26, Packers 20 receiver, outjumped defenders GLENDALE, Ariz. — Larry Patrick Peterson and Rashad Fitzgerald set up and scored Johnson for the ball.

South Carolina bounces back over Mizzou Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Sindarius Thornwell scored 22 points to lead No. 19 South Carolina to an 81-72 victory over Missouri on Saturday.

The Gamecocks (16-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) never trailed, but never could put the overmatched Tigers (8-9, 1-3) away either. It was the first game for the Gamecocks since losing at Alabama, their first loss of the season.

Missouri trailed 63-57 with 7 minutes to go when Cullen Vanleer missed an open 3-point attempt.

Thornwell pushed the ball up court, made a basket and was fouled. He made the free throw and South Carolina led by at least seven points the rest of the game.

Missouri was playing its first game since banning itself from the SEC tournament and any other postseason appearances for NCAA violations. And the Tigers started the game without much fire, turning the ball over five times and missing two shots — including a 3-point attempt that wedged in the side of the rim — in their first seven possessions. South Carolina took an 8-0 lead But while the Gamecocks never trailed, they also couldn’t put away a Missouri team at the bottom of the 14-team SEC in eight different statistical categories after three league games.

Texas A&M 79, Georgia 45 ATHENS, Ga. — Texas A&M hadn’t exactly been dominant in winning its last three games by a combined eight points.

Even so, Alex Caruso sensed that his team was close to putting everything together.

“I was waiting for it,” he said. “I knew it was coming.”

Jalen Jones, Danuel House and Caruso all

scored 12 points and No. 15 Texas A&M won its eighth straight game with a 79-45 victory over Georgia.

The Aggies (15-2, 5-0 Southeastern Conference) never trailed, and a school official said the road victory was Texas A&M’s most lopsided in league play since it joined the Southwest Conference in 1915.

Georgia shot a seasonworst 28.9 percent and had no answer offensively as Texas A&M stretched its defense to the perimeter and stepped in passing lanes all game.

The Aggies have their longest winning streak since 2010-11 when they won 13 straight. It’s their best start in league play since winning their first five 30 years ago.

Auburn 75, Kentucky 70 AUBURN, Ala. — Kareem Canty scored 26 points, including two free throws with 20 seconds left, helping lift Auburn to a 75-70 upset of No. 14 Kentucky.

The Tigers (8-8, 2-3 Southeastern Conference) wiped out a 12-point second-half deficit to snap an 18-game losing streak to the Wildcats (13-4, 3-2). Auburn’s only win in the last 33 meetings had come in 2000, and students stormed the court to celebrate the upset.

Tyler Harris added 21 points and 11 rebounds and made two free throws in the final minute. Kentucky’s Jamal Murray made a 3-pointer with 13 seconds left and Canty missed two free throws to give Kentucky hope.

Tyler Ulis, who scored 17 points, missed a 3-point attempt at the other end that would have kept Kentucky alive. The 5-foot-9 Ulis had 10 rebounds and eight assists.

Murray scored 20 points on 8-of-22 shooting.

Vanderbilt 71, Alabama 63 NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Jeff Roberson scored 16 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, and the Vanderbilt Commodores beat Alabama for their second straight victory.

The Commodores (10-7, 2-3) desperately needed these games at home after opening their Southeastern Conference schedule 0-3, and they responded by winning back-to-back games for the first time since November. They won’t have consecutive games at Memorial Gym again until the end of February.

Riley LaChance scored a season-high 18 points, hitting a career-best 5 of 6 from 3-point range. Damian Jones added 13 for Vanderbilt.

Alabama (10-6, 1-3) came in off its third upset of a Top 25 team this season after handing No. 19 South Carolina its first loss Wednesday night but lost for the third time in four games.

Shannon Hale led Alabama with 13 points before fouling out with 4:14 left, and Retin Obasohan added 10.

LSU 76, Arkansas 74 BATON ROUGE, La. — Craig Victor II had a putback with 4.2 seconds remaining to help LSU beat Arkansas 76-74 Saturday night.

With 3:02 to play and the score tied, LSU’s Antnoio Blakeney made a layup and was fouled, but missed the free throw.

Ben Simmons grabbed the offensive rebound, scored and was fouled.

He converted the 3-point play, giving the Tigers (116, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) a 74-69 lead.

Arkansas’ Dusty Hannahs hit a 3 and Anton Beard made a layup, tying the score at 74 with 37 seconds to go. Beard was fouled, but missed the foul shot.

The ball went out of bounds off of LSU but, after the inbounds pass, Blakeney came up with a steal.

He missed a 3 on the other end, but Victor corralled the ball, setting up the winner.

Simmons had 16 points and 18 rebounds while Victor added 16 and 12.

Anthlon Bell led Arkansas (9-8, 3-2) with 19 points.

No. 1 Kansas 70, TCU 63 LAWRENCE, Kan. — Wayne Selden Jr. scored 11 points, Carlton Bragg and Cheick Diallo provided a boost off the bench, and No. 1 Kansas slogged past TCU 70-63 on Saturday.

Bragg had 10 points, as did Perry Ellis and Devonte Graham. Diallo had nine points and nine rebounds to help the Jayhawks (15-2, 4-1 Big 12) bounce back from a loss at West Virginia.

It was the 33rd consecutive win at Allen Fieldhouse for Kansas, matching the fourth-best streak in school history.

Michael Williams had 13 points and Brandon Parrish and Chauncey Collins each scored 11 for the Horned Frogs (9-8, 1-4).

No. 2 Oklahoma 70, No. 11 West Virginia, 68 NORMAN, Okla.

— Khadeem Lattin’s tip-in with one second remaining lifted Oklahoma.

Buddy Hield scored 17 points and Ryan Spangler added 10 points and 14 rebounds for the Sooners (15-1, 4-1 Big 12).

Oklahoma is in position to move to No. 1 in the AP poll since top-ranked Kansas lost to West Virginia on Tuesday. It would be the Sooners’ first No. 1 ranking since March 1990.

Jaysean Paige had 18 points for the Mountaineers (15-2, 4-1).

Panthers seek redemption

BY STEVE REED Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera says the Seattle Seahawks are starting to feel a little like a division opponent.

The teams will meet for the sixth time in four years and for the second straight season in the NFC divisional playoffs on Sunday. The Seahawks have won four of the previous five matchups, including a 31-17 playoff victory last year in Seattle.

But this time it’s a little different.

Not only will the game be played in Charlotte, where the top-seeded Panthers (15-1) have won 11 straight, but the Seahawks face a Carolina team that’s more confident and battledtested.

Some of that stems from Carolina’s 27-23 win over the two-time defending NFC champions in Week 6 when Cam Newton connected on a 26-yard touchdown pass to tight end Greg Olsen with 32 seconds left.

The Panthers say that win helped jumpstart their 14-0 start this season and gave them confidence they could beat the best.

“It was just a matter of getting over that hump,” said cornerback Josh Norman.

It led Panthers safety Roman Harper to declare this week: “We are the better team.”

In many ways, the Seahawks and Panthers are mirror images of one another, which may help explain why the last five games have come down to the wire.

They both have dynamic quarterbacks who can make plays with their arms and their feet; strong running games led by powerful, bruising backs; and defenses that excel at keeping the opposition out of the end

zone.

But the most intriguing matchup may be Carolina’s No. 1 scoring offense against Seattle’s defense, which has allowed the fewest points in the league.

Newton became the first QB in league history to throw for 35 touchdown passes and run for 10 scores in a season.

He’ll face a defense loaded with playmakers.

“This is the most diversified offense that we see, and the dynamics of what Cam is able to do and the way that they’re willing to run with him makes this a really difficult offense to prepare for,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. “You’ve seen everybody have trouble with it all year long, so we’ll see if we can keep it down and try to keep the score within reach and see if we have a chance.”

Things to watch in the Seahawks-Panthers playoff game: NOW BOARDING: After last week’s sudden turn when Marshawn Lynch ended up not making the trip to Minnesota, all indications are “Beast Mode” will be back against the Panthers. If Lynch plays, it will be his first action since Week 10 against Arizona prior to having abdominal surgery.

Lynch was a full participant in practice for the second straight week.

Carolina did an adequate job slowing down Lynch in the first meeting, holding him to 54 yards on 17 carries and no run longer than 17 yards. In seven career games versus Carolina as a member of the Seahawks, Lynch has never rushed for more than 89 yards.

STEWART’S CONDITIONING: Meanwhile, Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart makes his return after missing the last three games with a foot injury.

Gala raises funds for college tutoring program Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Iota Zeta chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) honor society values the four pillars that the national honor society has set forth for local chapters.

Following the four pillars of service, scholarship, leadership and fellowship, the Northeast PTK has come to the aid of a program that aids students at the two-year college.

In an effort to help the tutoring center at the college, PTK held its inaugural Glaciation Gala to raise funds for the tutoring center at the school.

Each year, the Northeast chapter chooses a college project that will make Northeast a better place. This year’s project is the support of the tutoring center.

“Education is a gift and the work that the tutoring program does for Northeast students is unprecedented,” said Northeast Phi Theta Kappa member Grant Gaar of Walnut.

“The goal for the gala was to bring awareness to the aid the center gives students.

“As a community college, we are offering an invaluable service to essentially the entire community.”

Phi Theta Kappa banded together over the late summer, early fall to come up with an event that would raise funds for the tutoring center that would allow it to continue to function on the Northeast campus.

Northeast’s Glaciation Gala, a black-tie optional event, was held at the old Booneville Hardware building in downtown Booneville on Thursday, December 3 and featured a three-course full meal served along with live entertainment, door prizes and other entertaining options.

An organizational goal of raising $25,000 to help offset the cost of operating the tutoring center was set earlier in the fall semester and the group’s efforts surpassed that goal.

During its annual fall cheese fund-raiser and other projects, members of Phi Theta Kappa were able to raise over $11,500 for the project.

A silent auction in the Ramsey Student Services Building’s lobby on Tuesday, December 1 garnered over $1,000 going toward the project.

Moreover, as announced during the gala, Tri-State Education Foundation contributed $15,000 to the cause while the Modern Woodmen of America pushed the total to over $30,000 with a $2,500 matching contribution to the organization’s fall cheese sales.

Former Phi Theta Kappa president Zeb Taylor, who works for Modern Woodmen of America and is headquartered in Corinth, was instrumental in getting the matching contribution for the cause.

For those that wish to contribute to the cause, one can donate to the Northeast Development Foundation and earmark the gift for the tutoring program.

“We look forward to helping students create a bright future through the process of offering free tutoring in all areas of study through the tutorial center,” Gaar said. “To everyone who has contributed tonight, we thank you.”

Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi, is the largest honor society in higher education with 1,285 chapters on college campuses in all 50 of the United States, plus Canada, Germany, the Republic of Palau, Peru, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, the British Virgin Islands, the United Arab Emirates and U.S. territorial possessions.

Nearly three million students have been inducted since its founding in 1918, with approximately 131,000 students inducted annually. Phi Theta Kappa seeks to foster the development of leadership and service, to provide an intellectual climate for the exchange of ideas, and to encourage the establishment of scholarships for advanced education.

Northeast’s Iota Zeta chapter has been recognized as a “Five Star” chapter for 13 straight years, the highest rating given any chapter, and has been recognized as an exemplary model.

Advisors for the chapter during the 2015-16 academic year are Dr. Ray Harris, Andrea Mathis of Booneville and Carla Falkner, Morgan Ricks, both of Tupelo.

Average age of new U.S. moms at all-time high

BY MIKE STOBBE AP Medical Writer

NEW YORK — The average age of first-time mothers is at an all-time high in the U.S — over 26.

The change is largely due to a big drop in teen moms. But more first births to older women also are tugging the number up, said T.J. Mathews of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

He’s the lead author of a report released Thursday that put the average age at 26 years, 4 months for women who had their

first child in 2014.

The government began tracking the age of new mothers around 1970 when the average was 21.

It’s been mostly climbing ever since, and spiked in about the last five years.

The number rocketed immediately after a 1973 U.S. Supreme Court ruling legalizing abortion, which is used mostly by young unmarried women. Also fueling the rise were improvements in birth control and opportunities for women, experts said.

Cancer ‘moonshot’ aims to speed fight against No. 2 killer

BY LAURAN NEERGAARD AP Medical Writer

WASHINGTON — Harking back to America’s triumphant race into space, the Obama administration is launching what it calls a “moonshot” effort to cure cancer.

Don’t expect miracles in the administration’s last months in office.

“It probably won’t be cured in my lifetime, but I think it’ll be cured in yours,” President Barack Obama told a 4th-grader in Baton Rouge on Thursday.

There’s been striking progress in recent years even though cancer remains the nation’s No. 2 killer. Obama assigned Vice President Joe Biden to figure out how to speed that progress. Details are still to come but topping Biden’s wish list is increased research funding and getting scientists to better share data to spur breakthroughs.

Here’s a look at the state of cancer:

Current impact The American Cancer Society predicts there will be nearly 1.7 million new cancer cases this year, and more than 595,000 deaths.

Yet the death rate is dropping — by 23 percent since its peak in 1991. That’s mostly driven by improvements in detection and treatment of the four most common cancers — lung, breast, prostate and colorectal — and also, for lung cancer, drops in smoking.

Survival varies Five-year survival rates for most cancers are increasing. Today, it’s 89 percent for breast cancer and more than 90 percent for prostate and thyroid cancers. More than two-thirds of patients survive at least five years with colorectal, cervical, uterine and kidney cancers and lymphoma.

Catching cancer before it spreads gives the patient the best survival chance, often even better than those numbers.

Far less progress has been made against pancreatic and ovarian cancers, harder to catch before they spread, or brain cancer.

“Cancer will not be cured this year,” says Dr. Otis Brawley, the American Cancer Society’s chief medical officer.

Nor will there be a single cure — cancer isn’t one disease but hundreds. But scientists now understand much more about how cancer forms and spreads and are developing new ways to tackle it.

“We are at a remark-

able moment,” says Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, ticking off areas where science is poised to pay off. “That’s part of the motivation.”

“Women are staying in school longer, they’re going into the workforce, they’re waiting to get married, and they’re waiting to have kids.”

John Santelli Columbia University professor of population and family health school longer, they’re going into the workforce, they’re waiting to get married, and they’re waiting to have kids,” said John Santelli, a Columbia Universi-

ty professor of population and family health.

“It’s been going on in the U.S. since the 1950s,” and in many other countries as well, he added.

Know your tumor genes Genetic differences inside tumors help explain why one person’s cancer is more aggressive than another’s, and why certain drugs work for one patient but not the next, especially newer “targeted therapies” that are designed to home in on certain characteristics.

Increasingly, patients at leading cancer centers are getting their tumor genes mapped to help guide treatment. If hospitals pool that genetic information, researchers can more rapidly learn which drugs best match which patients, says Dr. Victor Velculescu of Johns Hopkins University and the American Association for Cancer Research.

AACR just began Project GENIE as a first step, a database run by seven hospitals from the U.S., Canada, France and the Netherlands that so far have shared tumor data from about 17,000 patients. Velculescu says Biden’s efforts could spur larger collaborations.

What’s next?

Look for newer ways to detect cancer early using liquid biopsies, blood tests that capture fragments of DNA that tumors shed into the bloodstream.

And why call it breast cancer if the part of the body is less important than the gene mutation it shares with a tumor found in the lung or the liver? People increasingly will be treated for their tumor’s molecular signature.

“The treatments won’t pay a whole lot of attention to what part of the body it arose in,” says NIH’s Collins.

Slope neighborhood in Brooklyn — an enclave for families with young children — older moms are common.

Pushing a stroller on a frigid Wednesday morning, Meisha Welch said she didn’t have the first of her two children until just after her 38th birthday.

“Many of my friends I grew up with, we all have small children,” said Welch, now 42. “We had children at what in the past may have seemed like an older age. But now it feels more average.”

Beyond chemo Chemotherapy is still a mainstay of cancer treatment. But the hottest frontier is immunotherapy — tapping the body’s immune system to attack tumors, like the drug credited with helping treat former President Jimmy Carter’s advanced melanoma.

The first immunotherapies essentially strip away some of the ways that tumors hide, without as many side effects as chemo. They’ve worked well enough in melanoma and lung cancer that they’re being explored for a variety of tumors.

Overall, the average age of first-time moms has been rising in every racial and ethnic group, and in every state. Since 2000, some of the most dramatic increases were for black mothers and for moms living along the West Coast.

However, the Northeast still has the highest average ages. Topping the list are Massachusetts and the District of Columbia, each at about 29, and Connecticut and New York, at or near 28.

Nominations set stage for Oscar sequel

BY JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer

Coming soon: “Oscars: The Sequel.”

A year after Alejandro Inarritu’s “Birdman” swept top honors at last year’s Academy Awards, Inarritu will again play a leading role at the Academy Awards with his 1820s revenge thriller “The Revenant,” which landed a leading 12 nominations Thursday.

Other familiar faces are returning, as well, like last year’s best actor winner, Eddie Redmayne (“The Danish Girl”), Jennifer Lawrence (a record fourth nomination for the 25 year-old for “Joy”) and mainstay composer John Williams, who notched, staggeringly, his 50th nomination.

But absences were also stuck on repeat. A year after coming under withering criticism over a lack of diversity, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences again fielded an

all-white group of 20 acting nominees, restoring the trending hashtag “OscarsSoWhite” to prominence. That story line should have a new twist this time, though, when Chris Rock — who famously labeled Hollywood “a white industry” — hosts the Feb. 28 ceremony.

Other showdowns await, too.

In a tumultuous and unpredictable awards season, “The Revenant” — which also landed nominations for best-actor favorite Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Inarritu’s long-take maverick cinematographer, Emmanuel Lubezki — has emerged as a heavyweight, taking top honors at the Golden Globes and scoring a $38 million debut.

But George Miller’s post-apocalyptic sequel “Mad Max: Fury Road” followed with 10 nominations, including best picture and best director for Miller. And Ridley Scott’s

Cryptoquip

hit sci-fi epic “The Martian” landed seven nominations, including best picture and best actor for Matt Damon, but, surprisingly, no best director nod for Scott.

Eight out of a possible 10 films were nominated for best picture. The other five were: Tom McCarthy’s investigative journalistic procedural “Spotlight,” Steven Spielberg’s Cold War thriller “Bridge of Spies,” Adam McKay’s Michael Lewis adaptation “The Big Short,” the mother-son captive drama “Room” and the ‘50s Irish immigrant tale “Brooklyn.”

Left on the outside were Todd Haynes’ lesbian romance “Carol” (which fared better in acting nominations for Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara) and the N.W.A biopic “Straight Outta Compton” (which still landed a nod for original screenplay). The miss for “Carol” meant one

usual Oscar heavyweight — Harvey Weinstein — won’t have a horse in the best picture race for the first time since 2008.

In front of and behind the camera, diversity remains a widely acknowledged problem for the movie industry, and few films starring and directed by minorities were seen as contenders. But many expected “Straight Outta Compton” to be nominated for best picture, and numerous handicappers had Idris Elba for “Beasts of No Nation” and Benicio Del Toro for “Sicario” as likely for best supporting actor.

Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs, who had led efforts to diversify the academy’s memberships, acknowledged she was “disappointed.”

“What is important is that this entire conversation of diversity is here and that we are talking about it,” said Isaacs.

“Talking gets to the doing,

irse Ronan (“Brooklyn”) and Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years”).

After seemingly slipping in an unpredictable awards season, “Spotlight” rebounded Thursday, landing six nominations including best director for McCarthy, best screenplay for McCarthy and Josh Singer, best supporting actress for Rachel McAdams and best supporting actor for Mark Ruffalo.

Also nominated for best supporting actor were Mark Rylance, best known for his stage work, for “Bridge of Spies” and Christian Bale (“The Big Short”).

Nominees for best director shunned not just one filmmaking legend in Scott, but also Spielberg.

Instead, Lenny Abrahamson for “Room” was the unexpected addition along with Adam McKay, known best for his broader Will Ferrell comedies, for “The Big Short.”

Steve Carell brings parody back to TV with ‘Angie Tribeca’

Crossword

and we are going to do.”

Ryan Coogler’s acclaimed Rocky sequel “Creed,” starring Michael B. Jordan, was also often cited as one of the year’s best, but it drew only a nomination for Sylvester Stallone reprising his role as Rocky Balboa.

“I am incredibly humbled by this honor,” Stallone, first nominated for the role in 1977 for “Rocky,” wrote in an email. “I was not expecting it ... especially at this time in my life.”

Alongside DiCaprio and Damon, the best actor nominees were: Michael Fassbender (“Steve Jobs”), Redmayne (“The Danish Girl”) and Bryan Cranston (“Trumbo”).

Two big names were left out: Johnny Depp for “Black Mass” and Will Smith for “Concussion.”

The best actress field is led by favorite Brie Larson for “Room,” along with Lawrence, Blanchett (her seventh nod), Sao-

PASADENA, Calif. — In the grandly silly tradition of “Airplane!” and “The Naked Gun” comes TV police show parody “Angie Tribeca,” which started as a husband and wife’s private joke.

The clout-wielding couple in this case are movie and TV star Steve Carell (“The Office,” ‘‘The Big Short”) and his wife, Nancy, formerly of “The Daily Show.”

“We try to make each other laugh, and we were batting around ideas and the name ‘Tribeca’ was funny,” Nancy Carell said.

Steve Carell casually mentioned the concept during a production-deal meeting with TBS, the channel snapped it up, and he broke the good news at home.

“I said, ‘Honey, you know that really stupid thing we were talking about? Now we need to write a script,’” he recalled.

The series, starring his former “Office” castmate Rashida Jones, is getting an appropriately offbeat launch, a 25-hour loopreel marathon of its 10 episodes starting Sunday (8 p.m.). Viewers who prefer their belly laughs in halfhour doses can tune in on a weekly basis starting 8 p.m., Jan. 25.

Jones’ title character is a no-nonsense Los Angeles police detective in a stubbornly goofy world, a la Leslie Nielsen in the short-lived 1982 TV show “Police Squad!” and “The Naked Gun” movies it spawned.

“It’s not a brand-new idea, this type of comedy.

But there wasn’t anything like this going on right now (on TV), and that’s what was appealing to us about it,” Carell said.

Steve Carell counts as comic inspiration his friend Adam McKay, the filmmaker whose work

“It’s not a brandnew idea, this type of comedy. But there wasn’t anything like this going on right now (on TV), and that’s what was appealing to us about it.”

Steve Carell Executive producer, “Angie Tribecca” ranges from “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy” to the newly Oscar-nominated “The Big Short.” He’s also a professed fan of the 1960s spy parody “Get Smart.”

“Angie Tribeca” wisely adheres to the genre’s mandatory and rapid-fire wordplay, sight gags and general willingness to do anything for a laugh.

Jones describes it as “wall-to-wall jokes.”

Jere Burns plays Angie’s commander, Chet Atkins (wink, nudge), in charge of the LAPD’s Really Heinous Crimes Unit.

Hayes MacArthur, Deon Cole and Andree Vermeulen co-star.

“Just give me a name,” Angie demands during an interrogation-room interview.

“Don’t you have a name?” replies the man being questioned.

“Yeah, but it’s ‘Angie’ and I never liked it,” she snaps back at him.

In another bit, Atkins has a run-in with Apple’s digital answer lady, Siri.

“How do you fly a 767?” he urgently asks of his iPhone in a scene that — why not? — puts him in

the cockpit of a troubled jetliner, a friendly tip of the hat to “Airplane!”

Replies Siri: “Play James Taylor’s ‘You’ve Got a Friend.”

The comedy may appear loose and spontaneous but is anything but, according to the cast.

A required focus on timing and precision leads to “a bunch of grown people sitting around having conversations about the most serious way to do the most ridiculous things,” MacArthur said.

“There’s moments when you’re on set and there’s an animal trainer between your legs and you have a costume change and you’re ripping off your pants and you have, like, a crossbow stuck down your leg,” said Jones.

“Angie Tribeca” is part of a slate of new shows that Kevin Reilly, named entertainment chief for TBS and TNT a year ago, is counting on to transform the channels into destinations for edgier fare.

Nancy Carell is seen in a small role as the mayor’s wife, but the Carells said they are focused on guiding their baby to success as behind-the-scenes producers.

That’s not assured, given the parody genre’s relatively unimpressive small-screen track record compared with movies (although TBS ordered a second season before the show’s debut).

“With a film, it’s an hour-and-a-half and you’re done,” Steve Carell said. In TV, “you have to pace yourself. It can’t be everything all at once.

It’s also a bit different than ‘Airplane!’ or ‘Naked Gun,’ maybe a little drier and the characters a bit more grounded than those characters.”

Added Nancy Carell: “Ultimately, you have to like these people.”

LeBron James to star in reality series Associated Press

CLEVELAND — LeBron James will co-produce and appear in a reality TV series called “Cleveland Hustles.”

James and his close friend and business partner, Maverick Carter, are producing the series that will debut this summer on CNBC. James also will make some cameo appearances.

On the show, James and Carter will give four

aspiring local entrepreneurs the chance to realize their own dreams while revitalizing a neighborhood in Cleveland.

James and Carter will get assistance from business experts, who will invest in and mentor the entrepreneurs. The goal is for the four fledgling businesses to create local jobs.

It’s the latest entertainment venture for the Cavaliers star. James appeared as himself in

Amy Schumer’s comedy “Trainwreck” last summer and recently signed a movie development deal with Warner Bros.

James’ SpringHill Entertainment company produces “Survivor’s Remorse” on Starz about a young basketball star, his family and friends and the pressure and excitement of a lucrative career.

He also produces a show called “Becoming” on Disney XD.
