Supporters: Keep schools open Bomb threat closes schools
BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
The rallying force behind the fight to keep Glendale and Rienzi elementary schools open pleaded to the Alcorn School Board of Education on Monday. “I’m a mom who wants to stand by what her children want,” said Jodi Fiveash, who has two children at GES. “Who is going to tell my children their school is going to close?” Fiveash and more than 150 supporters crowded the board room as Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell asked the board for permission to continue to investigate the closing of the two schools. “I’m willing to do whatever it takes – we just can’t go on like this,” said Mitchell. “We can’t increase our income on the state level, but on the local level, we could look at raising taxes.” Mitchell said the district is currently $5 million in debt with an additional $200,000 in interest adding to the total each year. He said the district could look at a tax increase as the current mileage rate is 52.74 mills and the state maximum is 55 mills.
Staff Reports
IUKA — A bomb threat closed Tishomingo County Schools early on Tuesday. Law enforcement agencies were summoned about 12:30 p.m. Tuesday to both Iuka Middle School and Tishomingo County High School after bomb threats were made to each school campus. Students were sent to the auditorium at each school as officers began their searches. Classes were dismissed at 1 p.m. due to the threat. This is the second bomb threat against Tishomingo County schools this year. The earlier one this year turned out to be a hoax.

Alcorn School District Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell addresses the Board of Education and a crowded board room about the possible closure of Glendale and Rienzi elementary schools. “We have some wiggle room, if that’s the route the board wants to take,” he said. By closing Glendale and Rienzi schools, the preliminary figures could save the district
around $700,000, said Mitchell. The superintendent also mentioned closing middle schools at Alcorn Central and Kossuth as a way to save more
money “down the road.” “That amount will go a long way on repairing some school buildings,” said Mitchell. Please see SUPPORTERS | 5A
Concern voiced over streets’ cuts
School board approves new position BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
An argument between two veteran Alcorn County school board members erupted during the approval process of a new part-time position on Monday. Alcorn School District Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell asked the Board of Education to approve the job description of a director of transportation and school plant management position and the hiring of former school principal Gary Johnson. “I don’t see how we can go with a position that was done away with eight years ago because it was a waste of money
then,” said district one board member Russ Nash. “Now we are hiring someone parttime and paying them almost $40,000 a year. We’ve got all these people here petitioning to keep their school open and we are spending this kind of money on a new position.” The position would oversee upkeep on the district bus fleet and the management of custodial staff members at all district schools. Both duties are currently performed by Assistant Superintendent Ritchie Williams, according to Nash. District five board member Randy Wilbanks said McNairy County School District has a
person in a similar position. “I have a friend on the McNairy school board and he tells me their maintenance supervisor pays for himself — he has apparently got a lot of things done in their district and they are saving a ton of money with him in place,” said Wilbanks. Nash quickly pointed out, “this isn’t McNairy County — it’s Alcorn County and in my opinion this position is not justified.” A heated battle between Nash and board president and district three board member Carroll Morton continued. Morton told Nash, “that’s your personal opinion”
regarding whether the position is needed. “I just don’t think it’s good money spent in our current situation,” added Nash. “We could be using that money to help keep a school open.” Glendale Elementary School and the Alcorn Central campus are in Nash’s district, shared with district two board member Laura Studdard. “This is nothing more than a politically created job,” added Nash. Wilbanks, Morton, Studdard and district four board member Mary Coleman approved the hire, while Nash said, “heck no.”

Ribbon campaign shows support for cancer patient BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
A sea of tangerine will fill the Corinth Elementary School cafeteria on Saturday as volunteers and organizers gather from noon until 2 p.m. to create orange ribbons in honor of 14-year-old cancer patient Addie Paige Pratt. “The main purpose of the ribbons is to help keep Addie at the forefront of people’s minds and to remind them to lift her up and pray for her and her family during this difficult and trying time,” said Gentry Parker, founder of “In His Honor”– an organization devoted to pay-
ing it forward. “She is currently undergoing chemotherapy at St. Jude Children’s Research hospital and has a long road ahead of her. The hospital will of course be taking care of her medical bills, but there will still be travel and other necessary expenses for the family to shoulder.” “By creating and selling these orange ribbons as we did the yellow ribbons for Army Staff Sgt. William Seth Ricketts, we hope to be able to alleviate some of the burden so the family can focus solely on their daughter,” she added. A 9th-grader at Corinth High
School, Pratt was diagnosed on Monday with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a rare form of cancer which affects the blood and bone marrow with excess immature white blood cells. “As a parent myself, my brain can’t even begin to process what they must be feeling right now,” said Parker. “Since orange is the color for leukemia awareness, we felt the tying of these ribbons was a good way for us and the community as a whole to show our support.” “Her father, Michael Pratt, is always the first person to respond back to me when I post about someone in need, asking
what he can do to help. Few people truly realize just how much he is involved with and what he does for others,” she continued. “He has such a servant’s heart that it means the world to me to be able to do even a little bit of something for him in return.” Giving back to others, “In His Honor” was founded six years ago as a means of blessing others. “It originally began as yard mowing campaign to help elderly or disabled residents who Photo by Rob Brown / Tee Rage Photography

Baldwyn man gets 30-year sentence BY BRANT SAPPINGTON
Today is Ash Wednesday, Feb. 10, the 41st day of 2016. There are 325 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 10, 1996, world chess champion Garry Kasparov lost the first game of a match in Philadelphia against an IBM computer dubbed “Deep Blue.” (Kasparov ended up winning the match, 4 games to 2; he was defeated by Deep Blue in a rematch the following year.)
On this date: In 1763, Britain, Spain and France signed the Treaty of Paris, ending the Seven Years’ War (also known as the French and Indian War in North America). In 1840, Britain’s Queen Victoria married Prince Albert of SaxeCoburg and Gotha. In 1936, Nazi Germany’s Reichstag passed a law investing the Gestapo secret police with absolute authority exempt from any legal review. In 1959, a major tornado tore through the St. Louis area, killing 21 people and causing heavy damage. In 1962, the Soviet Union exchanged captured American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers for Rudolf Abel, a Soviet spy held by the United States. Republican George W. Romney announced his ultimately successful candidacy for governor of Michigan. In 1967, the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, dealing with presidential disability and succession, was ratified as Minnesota and Nevada adopted it. In 1981, eight people were killed when a fire set by a busboy broke out at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel-casino. In 1998, Dr. David Satcher was confirmed by the Senate to be surgeon general. In 2005, playwright Arthur Miller died in Roxbury, Connecticut, at age 89 on the 56th anniversary of the Broadway opening of “Death of a Salesman.”

A Baldwyn man will spend the next three decades behind bars after pleading guilty to sexual battery and fondling of multiple young victims. Mikeal James Pope, 31, was sentenced to 30 years
in prison, to be served day-for-day, after pleading guilty Tuesday to three counts of sexual battery and two counts of fondling. The sentence was handed down by Circuit Court Judge Jim Pounds. “Although we cannot
undo the horrific acts committed by Mr. Pope, we can do our best to seek justice and some closure for the victims. Because of the courage of these children to come forward, Mr. Pope is in prison and will not be eligible for release until the entire thirty-year sentence
is served,” said District Attorney John Weddle. At the time of his arrest in 2014, investigators said they believe Pope may have been involved with as many as a dozen victims. Assistant District Attorney David Daniels prosecuted the case.
Burnsville woman faces drug charge BURNSVILLE — A Burnsville woman faces a felony drug charge after her vehicle was stopped by an Alcorn County sheriff’s deputy. Cynthia Quintero of Burnsville was arrested for felony possession of methamphetamine after her vehicle was stopped Thursday night on U.S. 45 South by Sheriff’s Deputy Tony Davis, said Alcorn County Sheriff Ben Caldwell. Alcorn County Narcotics Investigator Adam Rencher is working the case.
Register of Deeds fixes audit problem SELMER, Tenn. — McNairy County Register of Deeds Brian Dickey has corrected the problem in his audit finding for this past year and has received approval from the West Tennessee auditor. Dickey was cited in the audit for allowing unsupervised access to the register’s office after business hours. The register had left a key with the county attorney. The register has now taken back possession of the key. “I talked to the local auditor and told her I had fixed the problem,” said Dickey. “She said everything would be okay now.” McNairy County had 16 findings for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 that were spread across multiple county offices. The auditor said half of these findings were the same as last year.

Cyberattack forces shutdown of servers OXFORD (AP) – A cyberattack by an unknown hacker has forced a school district to shut down all of its servers. Multiple news outlets report the Oxford School District was the victim of a crypto-ransomware attack, which began early Sunday morning. The school district said in a news release that ransomware is a type of malware that infects a computer and restricts access to it until a ransom is paid to unlock it. Superintendent Brian Harvey says instruction was disrupted because of the ransomware. The school district says the cyberattack locked out students, teachers and administrators from gaining access to computer programs and files.

SOUTHAVEN (AP) — Police in Memphis say one of their off-duty officers has shot a person at a home in the nearby city of Southaven. Southaven police say in a news release that they answered a Monday afternoon call from a man who said he shot an intruder at a Southaven residence. Responding officers found a person on the driveway of the residence with a gunshot wound. Lt. Mark Little of Southaven police said the man was reported in stable condition at Regional One Medical Center in Memphis. Po-
lice did not immediately release the identities of anyone involved. Neighbors told Memphis television stations that the officer was in the house with two small children when the break-in occurred.
New leaders named at FHU youth camp HENDERSON, Tenn. — A new leadership team for Mid-South Youth Camp, operated by Freed-Hardeman University, will take the reins for Summer 2016. FHU President Joe Wiley made the announcement Feb. 8, prior to the evening session of the university’s Annual Bible lectureship. Brad Montague, a 2003 graduate of FHU and the creator of GO! Camp, has been named director. Gayle McDonald, currently the assistant director of MSYC, will continue in her role. They will be assisted by Tim Anderson, activities coordinator; Matt Cook, spiritual education coordinator; Travis Coleman, caretaker; and Ally Rogers, junior camp director and registration coordinator. The team brings a wealth of experience in working with camps and young people. Former director Frank Bradford was recognized for his work directing MSYC for the past 10 years, also. In addition to working with young people each summer, he began a fund-raising campaign to build a new dining hall to serve an even broader community throughout the year. Calling MSYC “77 acres of magic,” Montague said, “Camp is a big reason I am who I am today.” A former camper, junior counselor and counselor,

Corinth, Miss.
Recent steps toward prison reform now being emulated A quick fact – Mississippi has a rate of incarceration that sees 1,120 inmates jailed per 100,000 of the state’s 3 million residents. That dwarfs the U.S incarceration rate of 716 inmates jailed per 100,000 Sid Salter population, which is the highest rate of incarceration in the Columnist world. But while high, Mississippi’s incarceration rate is lower than states like Oklahoma (1,310 per 100,000) and Louisiana (1,380 per 100,000). That’s due to some relatively enlightened changes in recent years by the Mississippi Legislature and the Department of Corrections that don’t have as much to do with “liberal” policies on crime and punishment as it does with fiscal responsibility. In the days since Mississippi “got tough on crime” by implementing mandatory minimum prison sentences and other strategies that resulted in bloated and expensive system of corrections in Mississippi, several things have changed. New laws. Federal indictments. Prison condition lawsuits. ACLU challenges. But back in 1995, Mississippi lawmakers followed national trends in attempting to “get tough on crime.” In doing so, the lawmakers also dramatically increased the state’s prison population and therefore the operating costs of the state prison system. The Legislature adopted the so-called “85 percent rule” which mandated that all state convicts must serve at least 85 percent of their sentences before being eligible for parole. Mississippi’s law was in sharp contrast to other states, where the 85 percent rule applied only to violent offenders. The law had tremendous impact. On June 30, 1993, the Mississippi Department of Corrections had 9,629 prisoners with a capacity of 9,164. By the end of 1998, the figures jumped to 16,695 and 16,007, respectively. By 1999’s election year, calls were widespread to relax the 85 percent rule because of the staggering increase in prison costs. The law was eventually amended in 2014 to make certain first-time, nonviolent offenders eligible for parole after serving 25 percent of their sentences. In 2015, Mississippi also adopted the concept of “presumptive parole” which created a presumption that a prisoner would not be a menace to society or public safety, and would have to be released upon serving his or her minimum sentence, if the prisoner scored a high probability of parole based on established parole guidelines. Clearly, with Mississippi facing critical needs in public education at all levels, transportation, economic development, and other key areas, reducing costs in corrections should be a high priority if it can be accomplished without compromising public safety. The development of more fiscally responsible corrections policies in the state coincides with an ongoing federal probe of corruption within the Mississippi public and private prison systems. U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate recently delayed sentencing hearings that had been set for former Commissioner Christopher Epps, Brandon businessman Cecil McCrory and Carthage prison phone consultant Sam Waggoner. Epps pleaded guilty in February to two felony bribery counts, while McCrory pleaded guilty to one count. Prosecutors say the two were at the center of a bribery scheme that eventually resulted in Epps collecting $1.5 million in bribes from McCrory and others. Epps faces up to 23 years in prison and fines of $750,000. He has agreed to forfeit $2 million in assets. McCrory faces up to 20 years and fines of $500,000. He has agreed to forfeit $1.7 million in assets. Waggoner faces up to 10 years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines, and has also agreed to forfeit $200,000. The aspect of the state’s corrections system that still requires state attention is the private prison system. Too many questions remain about how those facilities factor into the state’s operation of a more fiscally responsible corrections system.

Prayer for today Eternal God, who hath weighed the mountains and measured the seas, I pray that I may not be satisfied to wait in idleness, and let thy wisdom pass away from me as the days. Steady me in my weakness, and reveal to me my strength as I draw near and ask of thee. Amen.
A verse to share I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, —Ephesians 3:16
The Remainderman
Donald Trump won more votes in the Iowa caucuses than any Republican candidate in history. Impressive, except Ted Cruz set the new all-time record. And Marco Rubio exceeded all expectations by taking 23 percent. Cruz won Tea Party types, Evangelicals, and the hard right. Trump won the populists and nationalists who want the borders secure, no amnesty, and no more trade deals that enable rival powers like China to disembowel American industries. And Rubio? He is what columnist Mark Shields called Jimmy Carter, 35 years ago, “the remainderman of national politics. He gets what’s left over after his opponents have taken theirs by being the least unacceptable alternative to the greatest number of voters.” Marco is the fallback position of a reeling establishment that is appalled by Trump, loathes Cruz, and believes Rubio – charismatic, young, personable – can beat Hillary Clinton. But there is a problem here for the establishment. While Rubio has his catechism down cold – “I’ll tear up that Iran deal my first day in office!” – his victory would mean a rejection of the populist revolt that arose with Trump’s entry and has grown to be embraced by a majority of Republicans. Cruz, Trump, Carson – the outsiders – won over
60 percent of all caucus votes. Their antiWashington messages, Trump and Pat Cruz’s espeBuchanan cially, grew the GOP Columnist turnout to its largest in history, 186,000, half again as many as participated in the record turnout of 2012. Most significant, 15,000 more Iowans voted in GOP caucuses than the Democratic caucuses, where participation plummeted 30 percent from 2008. What does this portend? While Iowa has gone Democratic in 6 of the last 7 presidential elections, it is now winnable by Republicans – on two conditions. The party must be united. And it cannot lose the fire and energy that produced this turnout and brought out those astonishing crowds of tens of thousands. The remainderman, however, cannot reproduce that energy or those crowds. For Rubio is not a barn burner; he is a malleable man of maneuver. Rubio is “The Hustler,” the “Fast Eddie” Felson of 2016. And the Beltway is all in behind him. He is now the candidate of the Washington crowd that a majority of Republicans voted to reject in Iowa, the darling of the donor
class, and the last hope of a Beltway punditocracy that recoils whenever the pitchforks appear. Which brings us to the antithesis of Rubio – Bernie Sanders. Given where he started a year ago, a sparring partner for the heavyweight Clinton, and where he ended, a split decision and a coin toss, the Brooklyn-born Socialist was the big winner of Iowa. In the Democratic race, it is Sanders who has been getting the Trump-sized crowds, while Hillary and Bill Clinton have been playing to what look like audiences at art films in the 1950s. Sanders will likely have the best night of his campaign Tuesday – if Hillary Clinton’s surge does not overtake him – when he wins New Hampshire. But just as a stifling of the Trump-Cruz-Carson rebellion, with another establishment favorite like Rubio, would bank all the fires of enthusiasm in the GOP, Clinton’s rout of Sanders would cause millions of progressives and young people who rallied to Bernie to give up on 2016. And if both the Sanders’ revolution that captured half his party in Iowa, and the Trump-Cruz revolt that captured half of their party are squelched, and we get an establishment Republican vs. an establishment Democrat in the fall, Ameri-
ca will be sundered. For there is not one America today, nor two. Politically, there are at least four. Were this Britain or France, the GOP would have long ago split between its open-borders, globalist, war party wing, and its populist, patriotic, social conservative wing. The latter would be demanding a timeout on immigration, secure borders, no amnesty, no more needless wars, and a trade policy dictated by what was best for America, not Davos or Dubai. Democrats would break apart along the lines of the Clinton-Sanders divide, with the neo-socialists becoming a raucous and robust anti-big bank, antiWall Street, soak-the-rich and share-the-wealth party. These splits may be postponed again in 2016, but these rebellions are going to reappear until they succeed in overthrowing our failed establishments. For the causes that produced such revolutions – Third World invasions, income inequality, economic torpor, culture wars, the real and relative decline of the West – have become permanent conditions.

History shapes New Hampshire primary Benning Wentworth is not a name you’ll run across in New Hampshire primary coverage. But he arguably did as much as anyone else to establish the political culture – or cultures – of America’s first-in-the-nation primary state. Wentworth was governor of New Hampshire from 1741 to 1766, the longest-serving colonial governor, and with his father he successfully lobbied to make New Hampshire, surrounded by Massachusetts and its Maine territory, a separate colony. Wentworth himself was not much at obeying rules. At Harvard he “set a new high record for fines and broken windows,” one historian noted. As merchants, the Wentworths sold to Britain’s enemy Spain “what they said was ordinary lumber and what their enemies alleged to be mast timber from the king’s woods.” Since then, New Hampshire has been involved in worldwide commerce and has been resistant to rules and restrictions, with a libertarian streak and an aversion to orthodoxies. “Live free or die,” the state motto, comes from Revolutionary War hero John Stark, but it could have come from Ben-

ning Wentworth. For years New Hampshire voted Democratic while the Michael rest of New Barone E n g l a n d supported Columnist Whigs and Republicans. When other Yankees worked to abolish slavery, New Hampshire’s President Franklin Pierce supported the slaveholding South. New Hampshire’s longtime tax-averseness helped propel Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush into the presidency in the 1980s, with worldwide reverberations. Since then, tax cuts have become Republican orthodoxy and religious beliefs have become determinants of political behavior. New Hampshire, never pious in Wentworth’s day, has a relatively secular Republican electorate — only 22 percent were evangelicals in 2012, compared to 64 percent in Iowa last week. This is tough ground for candidates identified with the religious right, and New Hampshire Republicans have rejected every Iowa winner since 1996.
That isn’t good news for Ted Cruz and may help Donald Trump hold onto his big poll numbers there. It helps explain why Chris Christie is attacking Marco Rubio on abortion, why John Kasich is foreswearing religious talk and why Jeb Bush is emphasizing his experience, not his faith. Democratic politics in New Hampshire has been shaped, more than two centuries later, by Benning Wentworth’s creation of dozens of new townships on both sides of the Connecticut River. Once the nation’s most Republican state, Vermont is now the second-most Democratic. The flinty Yankee farmers of yore have died out, replaced in the 1970s and 1980s by a flood of alternative-lifestyle newcomers, typified by Brooklyn-native Bernie Sanders. New Hampshire’s Democratic primaries used to be dominated by textile mill workers of Irish and French Canadian descent. Now the mills are high-tech offices and the state’s Democratic electorate has been increasingly Vermontized, with fewer (as some analysts call them) beer Democrats and more wine Democrats. With beer Democrat sup-

port, Al Gore beat Bill Bradley 50 percent to 46 percent in the 2000 primary. Hillary Clinton won with beer Democrat support in 2008, but got only 39 percent, as wine Democrats split between Barack Obama and John Edwards. This year’s polls show Clinton with about the same percentage, while losing in this one-onone race against wine-Democrat-supported Vermonter Bernie Sanders. Contemporary dominant politicians have trouble determining election outcomes. Terry Branstad, the republic’s longest-serving governor ever, couldn’t stop ethanol opponent Ted Cruz from winning in Iowa. But New Hampshire politics is still partly shaped by the longest-serving colonial governor, Benning Wentworth, who left office 250 years ago. We cannot entirely escape history.

The city has 244 miles of streets. “We need to be shooting for a 30-year lifespan when we put a road in,” said Verdung. “That’s the typical life of an asphalt road. We’ve been lucky to get 10 years, maybe 15.” He suggested that some paving projects currently on the calendar might need to be delayed if the utilities under the streets cannot be expected to last 15 or 20 years. If the city doesn’t ensure a reasonable lifespan for the streets, “We just continue to throw good money after bad,” he said.

The mayor will ask the city board to consider commissioning an assessment to locate all utility lines in the downtown business district area of the city to assist in planning street paving and utility repairs. “If you don’t know what we’re doing and we don’t know where your challenges are, then we’re going to never end up in the end zone where we want to be,” said Irwin. “I’m going to make sure on our part that each of you know where we’re going. We can no longer not work together in this particular arena.” Street Commissioner Philip Verdung said communication amongst the different agencies has improved some but not enough.

The money saved would pay off the district debt and help fight aging issues on buildings on the Alcorn Central and Kossuth campuses. “Our facilities have been neglected for far too long,” Mitchell told the board. “The school buildings were built in 1961 and 1959 and have never had a complete overhaul. We have patched and continue to patch. These schools are deteriorating and are in bad need of repair.” Mitchell read a letter from Alcorn Central band students who noted harsh conditions at the school’s band hall, including widespread leaking and heating issues. “This is a pretty good description of the troubles we face throughout the district,” added Mitchell. “We spend 80 percent of our money on salaries, which leaves us very little money to do everything else.” Rienzi Elementary School PTC (Parent Teacher Committee) President Ed Kuligowski asked the board to consider the quality of the children’s education. “Being physically responsible doesn’t mean closing the school that has the number one test scores in the state,” said Kuligowski. “We should start looking at what they are doing and mimic it district wide, not do away with it.” According to Alcorn School District Testing Director Tammy Johnson, Rienzi’s sixth grade Math class taught by Sandry Nguyen was ranked

When I first arrived, I found that there was no toilet, the bathtub had fallen through the floor, there was only a little bit of water running in the sink and cockroaches were everywhere.” Asking the daughter if there was one thing she could help her with, the woman in her 70s replied, “I would just like to help give my mother who is in her 90s a bath.” “That one statement really hit home for me and I wanted so badly to help them that I decided I would see about getting them a new tub,” said Parker. “After we went in to do the work it became obvious to us that we would have to redo everything and ultimately ended up

The same teacher and class also ranked overall third statewide for Language Arts. “We are not sacrificing any child’s education,” said Mitchell. “The kids at Rienzi and Glendale already have an edge on other schools in the district, because of the student to teacher ratio.” “Our job is to look out for all 3,300 kids, not just 280 – we are looking at helping all of our kids,” he added. Twenty-seven-year Kossuth Middle School teacher and bus driver Bill Timmons spoke from the heart about the possible closing. “I have seen first hand some of the infrastructure problems Mr. Mitchell is talking about and something has to be done,” said Timmons. “We have

the best schools, but we haven’t always had the best facilities. We haven’t always had the best tools. I love the Glen school and I love the Rienzi school, but I also loved West Corinth school where I went from first to sixth grade. I didn’t want them to close down West Corinth, but they did and the outcome has been pretty good.” District five board member Randy Wilbanks said he wants to see a long term plan. “If it’s just a shut down to buy buses, I’m not going to support it. If it’s because somebody’s mother went to school there, then I’m going to back it,” said Wilbanks. “I want to know the facts and that’s all we are doing here is giving Mr. Mitchell the OK to gather the facts.” Board members Carroll Morton, Laura Studdard, Mary Coleman and Wilbanks approved Mitchell looking at a school merg-

er, while board member Russ Nash said no. “I think a plan should already be in place before we vote,” said Nash, following the board meeting. “We have no idea where our kids would go or where our teachers would go — in my opinion, before talking to any principal or before asking the board, there should have been a plan completed and presented.” Fiveash said she doesn’t plan on slowing down. “The board reacted exactly the way I figured it would – given an opportunity to save money, why won’t they vote to continue,” said Fiveash. “I think the community’s presence at the meeting helped a great deal.

Bill would Obama seeks funds to combat Zika criminalize filming fights BY KEVIN FREKING Associated Press
Associated Press
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — The video posted on Facebook showed a 12-year-old on the ground while another boy tried to stomp him, with classmates standing by, circling the two and recording the fight on their phones. Neither boy was seriously hurt, but Republican Rep. Terri Bryant of Murphysboro in southern Illinois was so disturbed by the spectators’ behavior that she’s proposed a bill making it a crime to record fights to share online. “Instead of getting help, they opened their cellphones,” said Bryant. “I just want to send a clear message that it is unacceptable to stage these fights or be a willing bystander.” Bryant’s proposal, though, has prompted concerns about infringing on free speech rights and unnecessarily criminalizing young people. Similar concerns have hindered lawmakers around the country who have tried in recent years to crack down on cyberbullies who take to social media to harass classmates. In addition, intent can be difficult to prosecute. “I wish someone would have stepped in,” said Tiffany Thomas, the mother of the boy who was on the ground in an alley near the Murphysboro middle school during the fight last month. Bryant’s bill, introduced days after she learned of the video, would make it a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct to post fight videos online with intent to condone or promote the violence. All 50 states have anti-bullying laws, but only half of those laws address cyberbullying, according to the Cyberbullying Research Center. Utah passed a law in 2011 that would prevent students and faculty from using cellphones or other electronic devices to post words, videos or pictures to the Internet with the intent to harm or threaten another person.
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama is asking Congress for more than $1.8 billion in emergency funding to fight the Zika virus and the mosquitoes that spread it here and abroad, but says “there shouldn’t be a panic on this.” The virus is spreading rapidly through Latin America. While most people experience either mild or no symptoms, Zika is suspected of causing a devastating birth defect — babies born with abnormally small heads — and pregnant Americans are urged to avoid travel to affected areas. U.S. health officials say the money is critical for research into the birth defect known as microcephaly. They also want to speed development of a vaccine and better diagnostic tests, and expand mosquito control programs. Some of the money would also aid Zika-stricken countries and territories. “What we now know is that there appears to be some significant risk for pregnant women and wom-
en who are thinking about having a baby,” Obama said in an interview aired Monday on “CBS This Morning.” And while experts don’t expect large outbreaks in the continental U.S., the emergency funding also would help them prepare for any local transmission as spring and summer approach. The administration is seeking the Zika money separately from the regular budget for the next fiscal year, which Obama will submit to Congress on Tuesday. “For the average American, this is not something that will change our day-to-day life,” Dr. Anne Schuchat of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told reporters at a White House briefing. “Our focus is on protecting pregnant women and trying to control the mosquito.” Most of the money would go to health officials for such things as improving laboratory testing capacity, education and establishing rapid response teams. About $250 million of assistance would be directed specifically to Puerto Rico though extra Medicaid funding for health services,
and $200 million would go toward research and commercialization of new vaccines and diagnostic tests. The remainder, about $335 million would go to the U.S. Agency for International Development to help affected countries provide training to health workers, stimulate private sector research and help pregnant women gain access to repellant to protect against mosquitoes. Also Monday, the CDC said its emergency operations center, a command center that has been coordinating the Zika response, was being put on its highest level of alert. The Pan American Health Organization reports 26 countries and territories in South and Central America and the Caribbean with local Zika transmission. To date, there has been no transmission of the Zika virus by mosquitoes within the U.S., but some American travelers — 50 with laboratoryconfirmed cases between December and last week — have returned home with the infection.
One case in Texas is believed to have been transmitted through sex, and last week officials in Brazil, hardhit by Zika, reported finding the virus in saliva and urine. That doesn’t necessarily mean Zika can spread through those body fluids, said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease. Fauci said the main focus is on mosquitoes. Zika usually is transmitted through bites from the Aedes aegypti species, which is found in Florida, along the Gulf Coast and in states that border Mexico. Fauci noted that those same mosquitoes spread dengue and chikungunya, cousins of Zika, and there has been some local transmission of those viruses in recent years. Some of the emergency funding would help the government prepare for any similar local transmission of Zika. On Tuesday, administration officials are to brief Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and other congressional leaders on the administration’s Zika prevention and response plan.
Man accused of tossing gator at restaurant drive-thru Associated Press
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Alligators have been used as shoes, briefcases, university mascots, lunch and now, authorities say, a deadly weapon. Joshua James, 24, was arrested Monday and charged with assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill after Florida Fish and Wild-
Forget Her Not
life Conservation officials say he threw a 3.5-foot alligator through a Palm Beach County Wendy’s drive-thru window in October. He’s also charged with illegally possessing an alligator and petty theft. Bail was set at $6,000, and he was ordered to have no contact with animals. Wildlife officer Nicholas Guerin said in his report that
James drove his pickup truck to the window at about 1:20 a.m. Oct. 11. After an employee handed James his drink, he threw the alligator through the window and drove off. No one was hurt. Guerin captured the alligator and released it into the wild. Guerin said James was tracked down through video surveillance and a purchase at a neighbor-
ing convenience store. Guerin wrote that James admitted throwing the alligator in a December interview. He said James told him he had found the alligator on the side of the road and put it in his truck. James mother, Linda James, told WPTV that her son’s actions were a “stupid prank.”

State responsible for testing failures NASHVILLE, Tenn. — State education officials say they take responsibility for a series of computer glitches caused by a vendor that forced students to stop using a new online assessment test known as TNReady. Education Commissioner Candice McQueen, who has now ordered students take the test using pencil and paper, said Tuesday that online testing is still the future. McQueen told reporters Tuesday the massive computer glitches that prevented students from taking the online test Monday were the result of a procedural problem with vendor Measurement Inc. The state awarded the company with a contract worth more than $107 million. McQueen said the state has only paid the company $1.6 million and would not pay more for the problems.
Obama sends final $4.1 trillion budget WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama sent Congress his final budget on Tuesday, proposing to spend a record $4.1 trillion on a number of initiatives, from a new war on cancer to combating global warming to fighting growing threats from Islamic State militants. The spending plan, for the budget year that begins Oct. 1 — just 3½ months before he leaves office, is facing heavy fire from Republicans who hope to capture the White House.
The proposal has dim prospects of winning approval in a GOP-controlled Congress. In all, Obama’s budget would increase taxes by $2.6 trillion over the coming decade, nearly double the $1.4 trillion in new taxes Obama sought and failed to achieve in last year’s budget.
Twins deliver baby girls minutes apart VOORHEES, N.J. — Twin sisters in New Jersey have given birth to girls just minutes apart at the same hospital. WPVI-TV reports that Stephanie Edginton and Nicole Montgomery delivered their daughters Cora and Louisa six minutes apart on Monday afternoon at Virtua Hospital in Voorhees. Edington says she and her sister were both due to deliver their children on Friday. But Edginton was told to go to the hospital for labor while she was at a doctor’s appointment. Edington says that as she was on her way to the hospital with her husband, she got a call saying Montgomery was on her way there, too.
College faculty fired in retention scandal EMMITSBURG, Md. — A plan to identify freshmen most likely to fail has erupted into a scandal for Mount St. Mary’s University after the school president reportedly likened incoming students to bunnies who needed to be drowned or have guns put to their heads. Two faculty members have been fired and another demoted at the
Catholic school in rural Maryland following an internal investigation that concluded a small group of faculty who opposed the plan had leaked emails to the student newspaper. Board of Trustees Chairman John Coyne says the newspaper story deliberately mischaracterized what he called “an innovative approach” to student retention and damaged the reputations of both the school and President Simon Newman.
North Korea starts plutonium reactor WASHINGTON — North Korea has expanded a uranium enrichment facility and restarted a plutonium reactor that could begin recovering material for nuclear weapons in weeks or months, the U.S. intelligence chief said Tuesday in delivering the annual assessment by intelligence agencies of the top dangers facing the country. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper also said Islamic militants and those inspired by the Islamic State group will continue to pose a threat to Americans at home and abroad; al-Qaida remains an enemy; and the U.S. will continue to see cyber threats from China, Russia and North Korea. Clapper said that Pyongyang announced in 2013 its intention to refurbish and restart nuclear facilities, to include the uranium enrichment facility at Yongbyon and its plutonium production reactor, which was shut down in 2007.

Group opposes plan for airport takeover JACKSON — A coalition of Jackson leaders and business owners is fighting a bill to transfer control of the JacksonMedgar Wiley Evers International Airport to a state appointed-board. Senate Bill 2162, authored by State Sen. Josh Harkins, a Flowood Republican, would replace the five-member Jackson Municipal Airport Authority with a nine-member Jackson Metropolitan Airport Authority. It gives Gov. Phil Bryant five appointments and Jackson Mayor Tony Yarber only one. Yarber names all five current board members. Members of the Coalition for Economic Justice called for “no compromise” at a Tuesday news conference, arguing the bill takes power from the city of Jackson and allows neighboring counties to benefit from city investments.
an 8 percent increase over the $4.5 billion Mississippi is spending this year on schools from kindergarten through universities. Some leaders acknowledge they are unlikely to get what they seek, but say schools and colleges struggle to fulfill missions. Lawmakers have long failed to meet funding levels that formulas call for them to give to K-12 schools and community colleges.
Apartment fire near Yazoo City kills man YAZOO CITY — The Yazoo County official says a 36-year-old man died in an apartment fire just outside the Yazoo City limits. Coroner Ricky Shivers says firefighters from two departments were called to the Shady Lane Apartment at 1:45 a.m. Tuesday. Shivers says firefighters entered a burning apartment and found
Landell Watson on the floor. He says CPR was administered, but paramedics on the scene pronounced him dead. Shivers says it appears that Watson died from smoke inhalation, but an autopsy will be performed at the Mississippi Medical Examiner’s Office.
Two aim for vacant state Senate seat JACKSON — Two candidates have qualified for a special state Senate election in parts of Hinds and Madison counties. Bill Billingsley of Madison and former Sen. Walter Michel of Ridgeland will be on the ballot March 8. That’s the same day Mississippi will hold congressional and presidential primary elections. The District 25 seat is vacant because Gov. Phil Bryant appointed Republican Sen. Will Longwitz to a county court judgeship in Madison County.
Education leaders seek bigger budget JACKSON — Mississippi’s public schools, community colleges and universities are asking for an additional $372 million in the budget year beginning July 1, even as House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson says lagging state revenue makes large increases more unlikely than ever. Education officials made budget presentations Tuesday to Frierson’s committee, cumulatively requesting

Cheap fuel a win-win Delta and United was modest, just a few percentage points. The average price that passengers pay per mile — a good stand-in for fares — was 7 percent lower in September, the latest month available, than a year earlier, according to trade group Airlines for America. But spot prices for jet fuel fell by nearly half in that same time. So passengers got lower fares, but the four biggest airlines more than made up for that with savings of $16.9 billion in fuel last year. Several earned record profits in 2015, led by $7.6 billion at American. Investors were rewarded with dividends and share buybacks. Expect more of the same in 2016. The U.S. Energy Department predicts oil prices will be lower than they were in 2015, and American, Delta and United plan very limited growth. Southwest and JetBlue will be more aggressive, as they were in 2015.
When fuel prices started falling in 2014, airline passengers hoped for lower fares while investors worried about a drain on revenue. As it turns out, shareholder fears were overblown. Airlines have lowered fares but are holding on to most of the savings from cheaper jet fuel. Incoming Delta CEO Ed Bastian estimates that two-thirds of his airline's fuel savings turned into profit. Anyone who passed Economics 101 knows that ticket prices should reflect supply and demand. The cost of jet fuel shouldn’t be a factor, at least in theory. Investors, however, worried that cheaper fuel would lead airlines to add so many more flights that fares would fall and erode revenue. Most major U.S. airlines increased their flying in 2015, but the growth at American, AAL

I’ll be your Valentine BY JIMMY REED Columnist
Joe was tall, strong, and athletic, and the Leland High girls thought he was oh so handsome, but as much as he longed to, he never talked to any of them. He couldn’t. Around guys he did okay, but around girls, he felt shy, and when he felt shy, he stuttered. About halfway through February, along came one of those Saturday afternoons perfect for football … a sunny, windless day when you could easily be in mid-April, yet a day when one cloud before the sun would set you back in December. Joe and his teammates challenged their archrivals from nearby Greenville to a sandlot duel, and classmates from both towns gathered to witness the war. As the teams readied for play, Joe glanced at a gaggle of Greenville girls giggling on the sidelines. One stood out from the rest, the one with her back
The daffodils were blooming, reminding him of that afternoon when he first saw Julie in the daffodil dress. Flowers — that was the answer! I’ll pick a bouquet of daffodils, he thought to himself, and then go to her house on Valentine’s Day, offer them to her, and without stuttering, ask, “Julie, will you be my Valentine?” to him … the one in the daffodil yellow dress. Suddenly she turned and locked her bright, laughing eyes with his. Deep inside, something told Joe he’d never be the same. Her name was Julie. From that day on, Julie was always on Joe’s mind. How he ached to talk to her, but c-ccouldn’t. Constantly he slipped off to Greenville, hoping to get a glimpse of her. Sometimes
he did, and always she waved and fixed those bright, laughing eyes on him, but mysteriously … she never spoke. Valentine’s Day was just around the corner, and Joe could no longer hide his feelings from Julie. Somehow he had to show her, and more importantly, had to tell her. The daffodils were blooming, reminding him of that afternoon when he first saw Julie in
the daffodil dress. Flowers — that was the answer! I’ll pick a bouquet of daffodils, he thought to himself, and then go to her house on Valentine’s Day, offer them to her, and without stuttering, ask, “Julie, will you be my Valentine?” Late into the night, he stood before the mirror, chanting those words over and over until his speech smoothed out and his confidence soared. He was ready. On Valentine’s Day, Joe gathered the sprightly, springsmelling flowers, wrapped them in fancy paper, neatly combed his hair, donned his letter jacket, and set off to face the most daunting challenge of his life. Just as he knocked on her door, he felt his courage begin to slip. He was trembling. But before he could rush away, the door opened on a yellow explosion. It was Julie in the daffodil dress!
Struggling with all his might, he stuttered, “W-will y-you b-be…? His head drooped and his eyes moistened. He had failed. Suddenly, Julie grabbed the flowers and threw her arms around Joe. Then the mystery of why she had never spoken was revealed to him. Locking her eyes with his as she’d done that first day, she stuttered, “Wwill y-you b-be…?” Joe held Julie tightly, and in the clear, strong voice he’d longed for all his life, said, “Yes, Julie, I’ll be your Valentine.” (Editor’s Note: Oxford, Mississippi resident, Ole Miss alumnus, Army veteran, and retired Mississippi Delta cotton farmer Jimmy Reed (jimmycecilreedjr@gmail.com) is a newspaper columnist, author, and college teacher.

Iraqi woman charged with role in Mueller death BY ERIC TUCKER AND DEB RIECHMANN Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The wife of a senior Islamic State leader who was killed in a U.S. raid last year has been charged in federal court with holding American Kayla Mueller hostage and with contributing to the aid worker’s death, the Justice Department said Monday. Nisreen Assad Ibrahim Bahar, also known as Umm Sayyaf, admitted after her capture last May that she and her husband kept Mueller captive along with several other young female hostages, according to an FBI affidavit filed in the case. U.S. officials have said that while in custody, Mueller was repeatedly forced to have sex with Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of
the Islamic State group The criminal complaint, filed by federal prosecutors in Alexandria, Virginia, charges Umm Sayyaf with conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terror organization, resulting in death. The case was brought one year after Mueller was confirmed dead by her family and the Obama administration, though it’s not clear when or if Umm Sayyaf will be brought to the U.S. to stand trial. The 25-year-old Iraqi woman, who was captured last year, is currently in Iraqi custody and facing prosecution there. Her husband, Abu Sayyaf, a former Islamic State minister for oil and gas, was killed last May in a Delta Force raid of his compound. “We fully support the
Iraqi prosecution of Sayyaf and will continue to work with the authorities there to pursue our shared goal of holding Sayyaf accountable for her crimes,” Assistant Attorney General John Carlin, head of the Justice Department’s national security division, said in a statement. “At the same time, these charges reflect that the U.S. justice system remains a powerful tool to bring to bear against those who harm our citizens abroad. We will continue to pursue justice for Kayla and for all American victims of terrorism,” he added. Mueller, from Prescott, Arizona, was taken hostage with her boyfriend, Omar Alkhani, in August 2013 after leaving a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Aleppo, Syria,
where he had been hired to fix the Internet service for the hospital. Mueller had begged him to let her tag along because she wanted to do relief work in the war-ravaged country. Alkhani was released after two months, having been beaten. Mueller was transferred in September 2014 along with two Kurdish women of Yazidi descent from an Islamic State prison to the Sayyafs, according to the FBI affidavit, which says the couple at times handcuffed the captives, kept them in locked rooms, dictated orders about their activities and movements and showed them violent Islamic State propaganda videos. After her capture last year, the affidavit says, Umm Sayyaf admitted she was responsible for
Mueller’s captivity while her husband traveled for Islamic State business. She said that al-Baghdadi would occasionally stay at her home and that he “owned” Mueller during those visits, which the FBI says was akin to slavery. The Justice Department complaint echoes earlier assertions from U.S. intelligence officials, who had told Mueller’s family that their daughter was repeatedly forced to have sex with al-Baghdadi. “The defendant knew how Ms. Mueller was treated by Baghdadi when Ms. Mueller was held against her will in the defendant’s home,” the affidavit states. A Yazidi teenager who was held with Mueller and escaped in October 2014
“We will continue to pursue justice for Kayla and for all American victims of terrorism.” John Carlin Assistant attorney general said al-Baghdadi took Mueller as a “wife,” repeatedly raping her when he visited. The 14-yearold Yazidi girl made her way to Iraqi Kurdistan, where she talked to U.S. commandos in November 2014. Intelligence agencies corroborated her account and American officials passed it on to Mueller’s parents in June 2015.

Wedding cast of characters reflects turbulent history D E A R ABBY: My son, “Chad,” is being married in June to “Jenny,” a girl his sister “Madison” inAbigail troduced him Van Buren to.M a d i s o n feels she Dear Abby should be a bridesmaid in their wedding because she introduced them. Madison had sex with Jenny’s boyfriend “Axel” before she met Chad, got pregnant and had Axel’s baby. Jenny feels Madison screwed up her life and, even though she’s about to marry my son, she doesn’t want to reward Madison by asking her to be in the wedding. My daughter says if she’s not in the wedding she won’t attend, and won’t allow her son (by Axel) to be the ring bearer, either. I feel Chad and his fiancee should be able to have their wedding the way they want. I do not want to miss my only son’s wedding because my daughter feels slighted. What should I do and say? -- COMPLICATED IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR COMPLICATED: While it’s unfortunate that Jenny
can’t let bygones be bygones in the interest of future family harmony, you must not allow your daughter to dictate the plans for her brother’s wedding. When the big day arrives, you should definitely attend and celebrate with Chad and Jenny. If Madison chooses not to attend as a guest, that’s her decision, and you should not allow her to make it your problem. DEAR ABBY: My mother married a man, “George,” a few years ago. They met online, and he makes her happier than I’ve ever seen her. Our entire family adores George and is supportive of their marriage. My husband and I had our first child, “Ella,” this year. This has made Mom’s dreams of becoming a grandma come true. When I see George hold, play with, or just be in the same room with my daughter, I can’t help but keep a really close eye on how he acts with her. He hasn’t said or done anything for me not to trust him, but it makes me really uneasy, and I want to restrict his interaction with her. It is my responsibility to protect my baby girl, and I’m extracautious because I was molested as a young girl. I can’t discuss this with Mom because she doesn’t know about what happened to me, and I know this would cause a huge fight
between us. How can I limit George’s contact with Ella while still giving Mom the time she wants with her? Is this intuition or paranoia? -- CAUTIOUS IN KANSAS DEAR CAUTIOUS: Why does your mother not know what happened to you as a child? Did you stay silent because you were afraid you wouldn’t be believed? Because you wanted to protect her? Because your abuser was your father? You should have told her. It was her job to protect YOU. I think the time has come for you to let her know what happened and how it has affected you. While I can appreciate your reason for not trusting men, not all men are molesters. If you would feel better keeping a close eye on your daughter’s interactions with males until she’s old enough to know what kind of touches are appropriate and which ones are not, that’s your privilege. And if it leads to an argument with your mother, you will just have to stand by your decision. 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). Should you ride the trend or should you lead it? Right now, your conviction level is still at about a six (out of 10). Wait until your conviction is so strong you can’t help but rush forward. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re in the mood to take a risk, throw your idea out there, say the thing that will make the others think -- or laugh. When it comes down to it, you would rather be accused of being a crackpot than a conformist. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Wonder of wonders! Is this really happening? You can believe it! In fact, it may very well be happening precisely because you believed it. Your imagination is potent. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t have to give a formal recommendation for people to know what you like, whom you support and what you stand behind. The way to move through the world speaks clearly now. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The
battle is not lost if you don’t think it was lost. The trick is wrapping your head around the history in such a way to empower yourself.

Newman on Don Miller: ‘He’s a motorhead like me’
Tony Stewart can’t seem to outrun misfortune
Joe Gibbs Racing announces promotions; changes in personnel

Joe Gibbs Racing announced last week that Coy Gibbs, son of team founder Joe Gibbs, would be taking a larger role in the company. Coy Gibbs, who had been focusing on the family’s motocross racing venture, will become JGR’s vice chairman and chief operating officer. In assuming his new role, Coy is taking over many of the
duties that had been handled by his brother, J.D. Gibbs, who has been named co-chairman of the company along with his father, Joe Gibbs. J.D. has been suffering from an illness that affects brain function. Other changes to the organization include the promotion of Dave Alpern, who has been with Joe Gibbs Racing since its beginning, to president. Wally Brown will serve as competition director and Todd Bowland is the new technical director. Todd Meredith, who, like Alpern, joined the organization in its infancy, has resigned his position as chief operating officer, but will continue to consult for the organization over the next several months as he explores new opportunities, according to a team release. Coy said in the same release that he will be focused on the operational side of JGR while continuing to oversee the motocross program. “I take great pride in what we have accomplished with our motocross operations, and I will continue to provide direction there, while working more closely with my father and brother on the NASCAR side of the business,” he said. “I know we have a tremendous team in place already, and I’m looking forward to being more involved now in this official capacity.”
Truck Series rookies tune their trucks at Atlanta Motor Speedway The Fairhope, Alabama, native also said he has a lot to learn, despite his experience in the ARCA series, which races on many of the same tracks as the Truck Series. “It’s definitely going to be different,” he said. “The competition is going to be tough, and the biggest difference from the driver’s seat is the tires and the aero are different, especially on the bigger tracks.” For Bell, who will drive for Kyle Busch Motorsports along with Byron and Coughlin, there’s the pressure of taking over the truck that Erik Jones drove to the championship last year. Bell also considers it a benefit to him that the Truck Series will begin using a Chase format this year, with a late-season “playoff” formula similar to the Sprint Cup Series. “It’s going to be a lot fun racing for wins
Grant Enfinger tests the No. 33 truck at Atlanta Motor Speedway ahead of the Georgia 200 on Feb. 27.
Atlanta Motor Speedway
Five Camping World Truck Series rookies spent two days last week at Atlanta Motor Speedway getting acclimated to running the trucks on high-speed, intermediate-length tracks. They also used the session to tune their trucks for the series’ second race of the season, at AMS, on Feb. 27. Among them, the rookies at the test have just 16 career Truck Series starts, with Christopher Bell having the most, with seven, which includes a win last year on the dirt at Eldora Speedway. Grant Enfinger is next, with six, but he does have plenty of experience on larger tracks due to his time in the ARCA series, where he’s the reigning series champion and a 14-time winner. Cody Coughlin has two Truck Series starts, while William Byron has one and Austin Wayne Self has none. Four of the group are under 21, with Bell turning 21 just last December and Coughlin turning 20 the same month. Self is 19, and Byron is 18 and still in high school, where he takes online classes through his racing sponsor, Liberty University. Enfinger is the “old man” of the group at 31, but he does bring the support of veteran NASCAR promoter H.A. “Humpy” Wheeler. Enfinger said having Wheeler talking him up is a big plus in the sport. “He’s definitely the most respected promoter out there, so when he says something good about me, that means a lot,” Enfinger said.
Reed Sorenson to make Truck Series debut at Daytona Reed Sorenson, a veteran of both the Sprint Cup and Xfinity Series, will be making his first-ever start in the Truck Series when he takes the wheel of Mike Mittler’s No. 63 Chevrolet for the season-opening truck race at Daytona International Speedway on Feb. 19. Trip Bruce will serve as the crew chief, and Theme Park Connection will be the team’s sponsor. “This is a really solid opportunity for me and the whole MB Motorsports team to score a win at Daytona,” Sorenson said. Mittler is best known for giving promising young drivers a chance to showcase their talents in a top NASCAR division. Drivers who have used Mittler’s trucks as a springboard to a Cup career include Jamie McMurray and Carl Edwards. Last year, Mittler had his best finish ever when another youngster, Bobby Pierce, drove his truck to a second-place finish in the Truck Series race at Eldora Speedway. Mittler said he’s hoping to better his Eldora finish this month at Daytona. “Daytona is our biggest race of the season, and having Reed in our truck gives us about as good of a chance as we’ve ever had at winning it,” he said.
Tony Stewart has 48 wins and three championships in the Sprint Cup Series, and many more championships and victories in other forms of motorsports, including an Tony Stewart Indy Racing League title and four more in USAC. What he can’t seem to outrun is the misfortune that has followed him the past three seasons. In 2013, he missed 15 Cup races because of a broken leg suffered in a sprint car race. In 2014, he missed three races following another sprint car incident — one that saw his sprint car strike another driver on the track, causing fatal injuries. Stewart’s 2015 Cup season was a disappointment, as he didn’t even post a top-5 finish, and wound up a career-worst 28th in the standings — a result many attributed to the aftermath of the 2014 incident that led to the death of Kevin Ward Jr. Stewart announced last year that the upcoming 2016 season would be his last as a Cup driver, and he’d been working himself into good physical shape before an offroad accident last Sunday left him with a back injury that will cause him to miss most of the first part of the season. According to a release from his team and other news reports, the driver of the No. 14 Chevrolet at Stewart-Haas Racing was riding a special sand buggy in the desert with some of his racing friends when he made a jump, landed too hard and sustained a burst fracture of his L1 vertebra. Stewart underwent surgery at a North Carolina hospital, but faces a lengthy recovery period. He is expected to be back in his car at some point this season. As of early this week, no replacement driver has been named.
and not having to worry about points,” he said. “I enjoy that more, and I feel like that will allow me to have a bad race here and there, but have the wins make up for it.” Byron got his start in the sport via virtual racing, where he won more than 100 races. He started racing for real in Legends cars, then moved to Late Models with JR Motorsports and to a K&N Pro Series ride, where he won that circuit’s Eastern division championship. He said getting to race on the big track at AMS is a giant step up from the days when he competed on the quarter-mile Legends track on the frontstretch. “It’s really a dream come true to be out there on the big track going 180 miles an hour,” he said. When it comes to equipment, Byron, Bell and Coughlin appear to have an advantage over their competitors, as they all drive for the team owned by reigning Sprint Cup champion Kyle Busch, who has become a formidable Truck Series team owner. Entering the season, Busch has 45 Truck Series wins as an owner and is the two-time and defending owner champion — stats not lost on his young drivers like Bell. “It’s an honor to be here at Kyle Busch Motorsports, being able to hopefully back up what Erik (Jones) did last year with a driver championship and the past couple of years for Kyle Busch Motorsports’ owner championships,” he said.

Hodum passes scoring milestone BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
KOSSUTH — All was not lost in a doubleheader setback. On a night Kossuth was swept for the sixth straight time, Kossuth’s Rick Hodum eclipsed another milestone in points. The senior drained a pair of free throws in the fourth quarter to match and surpass the 1,700-point mark in his 105th varsity contest. Lafayette County would leave with a pair of wins in non-division action. The Lady Commodores, who finished second in Division 1-4A, opened with a 66-57 win, handing the Lady Aggies (10-16) their seventh straight loss. In the nightcap, the Com-
modores opened up with an 18-9 lead after one and claimed just their fifth win with a 68-54 decision. The Aggies dropped to two game under the .500 mark through 26 contests. It was the sixth straight setback for the Kossuth boys. Kossuth closes out the regular season Friday at home against Adamsville, Tennessee. ■ The Lady Aggies got to the free-throw line early and often, but couldn’t offset Lafayette County’s attack. The Lady ‘Dores got 54 points from the floor to offset Kossuth’s 19-of-26 showing from the line. Fourteen of Kossuth’s 29 first-quarter points came from the charity stripe. Shaniyah Buford paced
Lafayette Co. (17-6) with a game-high 22. Morgan Hodum led Kossuth with 21, going 11-of-12 from the line. ■ Hodum came into the contest averaging 21.8 points per game and needing 13 to reach the 1,700-point mark. The senior’s 13th point equaled the mark and his 14th and final one pushed him to 1,701. He’s now tallied 560 points this season in 26 outings, an average of 21.5 per night. Kennedy Dye led the Aggies (12-14) with 18 points. Quin Jones paced all scorers with 25.

Rebel football involved in 13 of 28 violations BY DAVID BRANDT Associated Press
Mississippi’s football program was cited by the NCAA in nearly half of the 28 rules violations levied against the school in the Notice of Allegations the university recently received, said a person with knowledge of the investigation. The person said Tuesday that 13 allegations involve the football program, and nine of those occurred during current coach Hugh Freeze’s tenure. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing. The violations are a mix of Level I — which the NCAA considers most serious — and Level II and III. Many have already been self-reported by the school. The school’s women’s basketball and track and field programs are also involved in the investigation. Ole Miss has been under investigation since 2012 when women’s basketball coach Adrian Wiggins and two assistants were fired after a school investigation found academic and recruiting misconduct. Two players were ruled ineligible and the school self-imposed a oneyear postseason ban. Ole Miss has 90 days to respond to the Notice of Allegations. School officials and legal counsel have not released the notice because they believe the documents should remain confidential while the investigation continues. Some of the NCAA issues involving the football program are already known. Left tackle Laremy Tunsil was suspended seven games during the past season after the NCAA ruled he received several improper benefits, including the use of three loaner cars over a six-month period.

Lady Bears, Lady Lions claim wins BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Half of Alcorn County came away happy in a road venture. Both Alcorn Central and Biggersville traveled to Union County for their next-to-last contests of the regular season. The two rivals will close out pre-tournament play on the road Thursday. Alcorn Central will be at Smithville, with Biggersville making the short trek to Tishomingo County. ■ The Alcorn Central girls broke open an 11-point halftime lead in the second half
en route to a 62-31 decision over New Albany. “We were sluggish in the first half, but came out in the third quarter and played like Lady Bears,” said AC Head Coach Charlette Foster. Central (17-9) scored 24 points out of the break, expanding a 21-10 lead to 45-19. Lauren McCreless scored 11 of her game-high 26 points in the huge quarter. The senior was 11-for-11 from the line in the frame and missed just once in 19 tries on the night. Malory Wigginton and Bri-
anna Barnes added seven points each. ■ At Myrtle, Jada Tubbs provided the game-winning shot ahead of the buzzer to give the Lady Lions a 55-53 win over the Lady Hawks. The win snapped a twogame losing streak for Biggersville, which improved to 15-8. Alexis Shumpert and Tubbs led Biggersville with 17 each. Serra Hinton had 11 as the trio combined for 45 of the Lady Lions’ 55 points. Geniesha Montgomery led
Myrtle with a game-high 24. ■ At New Albany, Trevor Godwin and Blake McIntyre continued their torrid scoring pace, but it wasn’t enough as the Bulldogs claimed an 8470 win. Central had a chance to get to .500 with a win, but will head to Smithville on Thursday with a 12-14 mark.

Florida sweeps series from Ole Miss Associated Press
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Dorian Finney-Smith scored 16 points, leading five Florida players in double figures, and the Gators beat Mississippi 77-72 Tuesday night. Florida (16-8, 7-4 Southeastern Conference) swept both games against the Rebels (15-9, 5-6) this season while improving to 12-1 at home. The latest one was a nail-
biter until the final minute. Florida’s Kasey Hill hit a circus shot with 1:19 remaining and KeVaughn Allen followed with a deep 3-pointer from the wing that put the game out of reach. The Rebels trailed by 10 in the second half, but closed to 67-66 after Stefan Moody made eight consecutive points. Moody had a chance to tie the game, but missed a free throw. He fouled out a
couple minutes later, heading to the bench after getting called for a charge with 1:09 to play. Moody finished with 19 points on 5-of-11 shooting. Tomasz Gielo led the Rebels with 20 points. Finney-Smith was Florida’s main man once again. He had plenty of help, though. Allen finished with 15 points, and Devin Robinson (15), John Egbunu (14) and
Hill (10) also scored in double figures. Egbunu chipped in 10 rebounds for his fourth double-double. Robinson was solid on both ends, even taking three charges. Robinson’s emphatic dunk with 5 seconds remaining brought the crowd to its feet for one final, long ovation. Mississippi had won three in a row in conference play Please see REBELS | 13
Mississippi State defense hog-ties Arkansas BY DAVID BRANDT Associated Press
STARKVILLE — Gavin Ware scored 21 points, freshman Quinndary Weatherspoon added 16 points and Mississippi State easily beat Arkansas 78-46 Tuesday night. Arkansas took a 10-9 lead early in the first half, but Mississippi State (10-13, 3-8 Southeastern Conference) responded with the next 11
points and continued to pull away. The Bulldogs led 42-20 at halftime. The loss snapped the Razorbacks’ five-game winning streak in the series. Arkansas (12-12, 5-6) started with a cold shooting touch and could never recover, making just 16 of 72 (22.2 percent) attempts from the field. The 6-foot-9 Ware had an efficient night for Mississippi
State, shooting 6 of 9 from the field, 9 of 9 on free throws and grabbing 10 rebounds. Three Bulldogs — Ware, Weatherspoon and Travis Daniels — had 10 rebounds. Arkansas was led by 11 points from Jimmy Whitt. It was a breakout performance for Mississippi State, which has mostly struggled during veteran coach Ben Howland’s first season lead-
ing the program. The Bulldogs received good production from three freshmen, including Weatherspoon, who shot 5 of 8 from the field. Malik Newman added six points and Aric Holman chipped in with five points, four assists and six rebounds. Mississippi State shot 27 Please see MSU | 13

MSU yup off the opening tip, a baseline jumper and three free throws in the first 9 minutes of the game. Hill pushed the lead to 10 with a pair of free throws and a 3-pointer from the corner. Making matters worse for the Rebels, Moody picked up his third foul with 8:19 remaining in the half and headed to the bench. That would seem like a big blow for Ole Miss, but Andy Kennedy’s team got
back in the game by getting hot from behind the arc. Rasheed Brooks, Gielo and Donte FitzpatrickDorsey hit consecutive treys, and Gielo followed with a driving layup that tied the game at 29. Ole Miss tied it up again early in the second half, but Florida started to pull away by pushing the ball inside. The Rebels had no answer for Egbunu in the paint and let FinneySmith get open for a dunk
and allowed Chris Chiozza to drive for a layup. Chiozza added a deep 3 during a 7-0 run that gave the Gators a little cushion in a close, back-and-forth game. Nonetheless, it came down to the final few minutes.

Some saucer magnolias can have blooms up to 10 inches across with colors ranging from white and pink to a bold purple.
Saucer magnolias are considered small trees, but some can grow quite large. Control the size of the plant by pruning immediately after flowering.
Enjoy early blooms of saucer magnolias With extremely warm weather in the fall and so far this winter, many of our flowering landscape plants are Gary really confused. Bachman I’ve seen fantastic spring disSouthern plays of color in Gardening December and January. This weather pattern creates a few problems, none of which we can solve as gardeners. We can’t control the weather, like the cold snap that came through the first week of February. When flowers begin to open too early, a quick dip into the low 30s or upper 20s will
quickly turn them into mush. I had these worries as I watched one of my favorite saucer magnolias beginning to flower just a bit too early. The fuzzy brown buds had been swelling for several weeks, which is normal as the colorful petals are perfectly protected. But then a little color started peeking out around the edges, and we had upper 20s on the way. Fortunately, saucer magnolias produce flowers in enormous numbers, and the few flowers that were nipped were quickly forgotten with the dazzling pink display currently under way. Some saucer magnolias can have blooms up to 10 inches
across. The colors vary from white to pink to a bold purple, depending on the variety. There are many selections and cultivars to choose from, and the decision may be hard to make. When selecting a saucer magnolia for the landscape, it’s good to consider the options available. This plant normally blooms in mid- to late spring, usually past the risk of spring frosts. Some selections bloom even later, so if you’re concerned about frosts, just select a later bloomer. I think the multistemmed specimens are the most attractive. Saucer magnolia is by far the most popular of the flowering magnolias. It is an old orna-
mental favorite that is a cross between different deciduous magnolias. It dates back to the 1820s and was brought over from Europe. The story goes that the saucer magnolia was developed to bring beauty back to the European landscape after the Napoleonic Wars. Saucer magnolia is considered a small tree, and it may eventually reach 20 feet by 20 feet. While driving around Mississippi, I have seen specimens that have achieved larger sizes, with some of them being larger than some houses. You can maintain and control the size of the plant by pruning. The best time to prune this spring-flowering tree is immediately after flowering.
The saucer magnolia is a good choice as a low-maintenance, easy-to-care-for plant. Be sure to plant yours in full sun in welldrained soil. It’s important to make sure the soil doesn’t dry out completely, as this causes the saucer magnolia to drop its leaves prematurely. The flower buds also don’t develop as well during drought conditions. Provide a couple of deep irrigations during times of drought stress to help ensure a beautiful spring next year.

Plants equipped to fend off cold temperatures, to a point BY LEE REICH Associated Press
Since they can’t don gloves and a scarf or shiver to keep warm, it’s a wonder that trees, vines and shrubs don’t freeze to death in winter. Sometimes, of course, they do. But usually that happens to garden and landscape plants pushed to their cold limits, not to naturally cold-hardy plants or plants in their native habitats. Think about it: Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit — not a particularly cold temperature for a winter night — and plants contain an abundance of water. Water expands when it freezes, so you can imagine the havoc that would be wreaked if water-filled plant cells froze and
burst. But adapted trees, vines and shrubs survive temperatures well below freezing each winter, and those of boreal regions live where temperatures dip below even minus 150 degrees.
Supercool plants Water, whether in a plant cell or a glass, does not necessarily freeze as soon as the temperature drops to 32 degrees. To freeze, water molecules need something to group around to form ice crystals, a so-called nucleating agent. Without it, water will “supercool,� remaining liquid down to about minus 40 degrees. All sorts of things can serve as nucleating agents — bacteria, for instance.
Ways plants deal with freezing temperatures Plants have another trick for dealing with the cold: letting water freeze only outside their cells, where the ice doesn’t do damage. Cell membranes are permeable to water, so as temperatures drop ice crystals that form outside plant cells grow with the water they draw out of the cells. With increasing cold, a plant becomes threatened more by dehydration than by freezing. Cell sap is not pure water; in it are dissolved various substances. You may recall something called freezing-point depression from high school chemistry: Basically, whenever you dissolve something in water, you lower the
resulting solution’s freezing point. So as water is drawn out of the liquid of plant cells, the liquid within the cells becomes more and more concentrated in whatever was dissolved in it. As a result, the temperature at which the cellular liquid freezes keeps dropping.
A gardener’s role So the plant is not a passive player in this cold story. In preparing for cold, cell walls strengthen, cell sap becomes more sugary and the permeability of cells to water is altered. Here’s where we gardeners can step in: Light supplies the energy that plants need to prepare for cold, so we can make sure to site and prune plants

can prepare itself for cold, so never swaddle a plant too soon in autumn. Unfortunately, all this fiddling to help a plant through winter pales in the face of genetics. The most that we gardeners can do to help trees and shrubs face winter is to plant those that naturally tolerate the coldest temperatures that winter is apt to serve up. The U.S. Department of Agriculture Plant Hardiness Zone Map gives an idea of the average minimum temperature for your region. Actual coldest temperature will, of course, vary from year to year and be influenced by microclimates at various places around your yard. Jaye Smith, RMT #67

so they get adequate light. Fruits are energy sinks, so we can also make sure not to let a plant bear too heavy a crop of fruit, especially if the plant is borderline cold-hardy. In addition to preparing plants for the cold, we can play around with microclimate, the climate right around a plant. Plants near south-facing walls, near paving, or sheltered from north winds keep a few degrees warmer than their more exposed counterparts. Swaddling a plant for winter, as is often done with roses, does nothing for its appearance but does give it a few extra degrees of warmth. A plant needs to experience some cold before it

Dear Annie: While in high school in the late 1970s, there was this guy, “Scott,” who had a crush on me. Nothing transpired back then, so fastforward 30 years. A month ago, I received a Facebook friend request from Scott. Of course, I accepted and found out he and his wife are separated. I also looked at his friends’ list and noticed he had friended a few other people, including my sister. I didn’t think much about it at the time. I knew that my sister had a new boyfriend, although she claimed I didn’t know him. For the past three weeks, I have been receiving his Facebook messages. He said that I looked good, and I thought maybe he wanted to rekindle the crush from high school. But I noticed that whenever he would log off, my sister would also log off. It turns out he’s been seeing my sister, who lied that I didn’t know her new boyfriend. She just broke off a relationship in November with a guy from my high school class, and now she is on to another one. In his last message to me, Scott told me he was seeing my sister and hoped I was OK with it. Annie, I barely spoke to the guy in high school. Sure, we dissected a frog
Annie’s Mailbox together in biology class, but that was about it. He waits 30 years, adds me as a friend and sweet talks me, but dates my sister? Was he asking my permission? I don’t understand this. I didn’t respond to his last message and I unfriended him. I felt he was fishing on Facebook for a new girlfriend, and my sister took the bait. Was I reading too much into these messages? — Totally Confused in Indiana Dear Indiana: We can understand the confusion over what seems to be mixed messages, but this isn’t worth getting your hackles up. It’s been 30 years since high school. He can date anyone he wants, including Sis. Yes, they should have been upfront about it instead of making it seem sneaky and dishonest. But really, who cares? Wish them both well and then forget about it. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Momzilla’s Mother,” whose daugh-
ter was so overprotective that she monitored which shampoo Grandma could use on her child. You were spot on when you said the granddaughter will eventually bring her mother’s overprotectiveness to an end. My mother was a Momzilla, and convinced I was in terrible danger unless she supervised every minute of my life. By the time I was 12, I had developed myriad ways to hide my activities from her endless obsession. She deprived herself of ever knowing me as an individual and lamented the “loss” of my love until the day she died. Because I had so much going on that she was unaware of, I didn’t feel I could come to her for advice, and as a result, made mistakes that have haunted me for years. Momzilla is setting herself up for future bitter disappointment. But if anyone has found a way to make such a person aware of the damage she’s doing to herself and her daughter, I’ve never heard of it. — Momzilla’s Daughter Dear Daughter: How sad for you and your mother. We would like to think that Momzillas everywhere will read this and consider it a wake-up call.
