Cleanup is expected to go on for days in the wake of a storm that conjured unpleasant memories of Ice Storm ’94. After a long day and night of cleaning up snapped limbs and trees resulting from Monday’s freezing rain, county supervisors’ crews continued the job on Tuesday. The west side of the county appeared to be hardest hit. Fifth District Supervisor Jimmy Tate Waldon said his crew was out until 10 p.m. Monday, and he was concerned about lingering patches of ice on the

Subzero temps, freezing rain on the way BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Winter weather will continue to plague the Crossroads area this week. Subzero temperatures are expected tonight as the National Weather Service forecasts a low of 1 degree for Corinth. “Bitterly cold subzero temperatures will occur over the Tennessee River Valley and North Mississippi Thursday morning with single digit temperatures expected,” said NWS. Some news outlets predict tonight’s low will drop below 0 degrees, which has prompted pipe freezing reminders.

“Leaving cabinet doors open under sinks is important,” according to the NWS. “Homeowners should also ensure both the hot and cold water remains dripping over night to help prevent pipes from freezing.” The NWS also suggests any animals or livestock normally left outside be provided shelter during below freezing nights. The extreme cold will continue to damper the icy conditions in the area. “Some roads will become a solid sheet of ice due to temperatures dropping,” added NWS. “Some melting could occur due to sunshine, however cau-

tion should still be taken as any standing water on pavement will refreeze each night.” NWS said black ice will be a serious problem in some locations. Some clouds will hang around today, but a chance of a snow flurry will continue. Today’s low is expected to climb to 25 degrees with an overnight wind chill values expected as low as -7 degrees. Thursday’s forecast includes mostly sunny skies and a high near 22. Overnight lows in the mid teens are forecasted for Please see COLD | 2A

worked from 3 a.m. to 9 p.m. “I don’t believe there was a county road that didn’t have a tree or limb laying in the roadway,” said Supervisor Gary Ross. “Some roads were completely blocked.” During the storm, the crew focused on getting the debris out of the roadway. Now, the work is shifting to going back and removing all of that debris from the roadside. “The heavier ice was in the Kossuth area west,” said Ross. “There was no damage to homes that I know of.” Several of his crew worked for the county in 1994 and declared Monday’s storm “a medium case of ’94.” In the Third District, Supervisor Tim Mitchell’s crew went out at 3 a.m. Monday. “Most of ours was in the west side of the county,” he said. “By the time we got one cleared, it would fall again. We worked till dark last night and I took the men off because it was too dangerous.” In the First District, Su-

pervisor Lowell Hinton said just about every road was affected, and several Farmington subdivisions had a good bit of tree damage. His crews were out until about 9 p.m. Ice accumulations are particularly rough on the softwood trees. “Some of these trees will straighten back up, but there will be some of them that won’t, particularly the pine trees,” said Hinton. A good bit of road patching may be needed in the next few weeks as cold weather settles in for the week. “When it’s as cold as it is right now, it really is rough on our roads, particularly our county roads,” he said. “Most of them are just covered with tar and gravel. In the summertime, it dries out and pulls apart. In the wintertime, it gets wet and blows up.” Supervisors observed mostly isolated power outages despite the large amount of falling limbs. “The power company has done a good job clipping that stuff back that is close to their line,” said Hinton.

Gorgeous floral sprays crafted by Photographer Margaret Bradley’s Franklin Courtyard adorned the cloth-draped tables, bringing ambiance and life to room. Door prizes and a silent auction added to the fun. “The inn looked beautiful, the food was delicious, the music rocked and the wines from Napa Valley were wonderful,” said Event Chair Sheri Rinks. “Thank you to all who supported our event through ticket sales, donations and sponsorships. You made it a huge success for The Friends of Pickwick Landing State Park.” Rinks also wished to thank the planing committee for coordinating the event, the inn for providing the food and venue and Corinth and Iuka for their generous efforts. “I really want to give a shout-out to Pam Murr,

Margaret Bradley, Jackie Lees, Shonna Meyer, Suzanne Henson, Jean Anne Vaughn, Donna Williams, Jetta Conway and our other great committee members for making it such a special night,” she said. “Additionally, I want to acknowledge Iuka, the city of Corinth and Corinth Wine and Spirits for graciously offering to sell tickets for us and helping us get the word out about the event.” “10 to 12 of the tickets were sold in Corinth and Iuka was a huge help to us with the flowers,” she added. The accounting is not yet complete, according to organizers, but roughly $6, 500 was raised after expenses and approximately 200 guests were in attendance. “We were very pleased,” said Rinks as she reflected on the turnout. “It was an amazing event and everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves.”

“The freezing rain Friday night will only cause more problems with already weighted power lines and tree limbs from the week’s earlier ice storm.”

forecast calls for a 70 percent chance of freezing rain and snow. “Any snow that falls prior to midday Friday will likely stick to the roadways, so extreme caution should be used at all times,” added NWS. “The freezing rain Friday night will only cause more problems with already weighted power lines and tree limbs from the week’s earlier ice storm.”

stems. Flowers also arrive earlier than do those on unpruned or incorrect plants. “Crape myrtles are the most common landscaping plants around here,” said Poindexter. Designed to be a tree according to Poindexter, crape myrtles thrive in heat and humidity and are drought tolerant.

Today in History Today is Ash Wednesday, Feb. 18, the 49th day of 2015. There are 316 days left in the year. Â

Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 18, 1885, Mark Twain’s “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn� was published in the U.S. for the first time (after already being published in Britain and Canada).

On this date: In 1861, Jefferson Davis was sworn in as provisional president of the Confederate States of America in Montgomery, Alabama. In 1970, the “Chicago Seven� defendants were found not guilty of conspiring to incite riots at the 1968 Democratic national convention; five were convicted of violating the Anti-Riot Act of 1968 (those convictions were later reversed). In 1984, Italy and the Vatican signed an accord under which Roman Catholicism ceased to be the state religion of Italy. In 1995, the NAACP replaced veteran chairman William Gibson with Myrlie Evers-Williams, the widow of slain civil rights leader Medgar Evers. In 2001, auto racing star Dale Earnhardt Sr. died in a crash at the Daytona 500; he was 49.

Ten years ago: Explosions tore through Baghdad and a nearby city on the eve of Shiite Muslims’ holiest day, killing three dozen people. Uli Derickson, the flight attendant who’d helped save passengers during the 1985 TWA hijacking, died in Tucson, Arizona.

Five years ago: In Austin, Texas, software engineer A. Joseph Stack III crashed his single-engine plane into a building containing IRS offices, killing one person besides himself. President Barack Obama personally welcomed the Dalai Lama to the White House, but kept the get-together off camera in an attempt to avoid inflaming tensions with China.

One year ago: Defiant protesters shouted “Glory to Ukraine!� as burning tents lit up the night sky after thousands of riot police moved against the sprawling protest camp in the center of Kiev.

Storm, cold temps blanket U.S. Surrender to the snow

Associated Press

DURHAM, N.C. — A powerful winter storm dumped snow from Nashville to Nantucket, and artic-like temperatures gripped much of the U.S. and hundreds of thousands of people were without power in the South. While some people shivered, others bundled up and tried to make the best of a frustrating situation. Here’s a look at how people were handling the land of ice, snow and subzero temperatures.

Ice baby Some things just won’t wait, as Jerry Nuesell can attest. With his wife 33 weeks pregnant, the couple was headed to the doctor’s office when Lisa’s contractions led them to UNC Hospitals for the arrival of their first born, a boy. “Turned out the little fellow was ready to make an appearance much sooner than we planned,� Nuesell said Tuesday. He watched his son be born, then drove 30 miles back to Cary, North Carolina, to take care of their dachshund, Schnitzel. Ice covered most of his windshield and the drive wasn’t easy. “I had probably a good 6-inch-by-6-inch square that I had to peer through to get the best vision,� he said. “On multiple occasions, I thought this might not be the best idea.�

The tourism office of Ithaca, New York, is waving the white flag, advising visitors on its website to check out the Florida Keys instead. VisitIthaca.com’s home page displays sunny photos from Florida and provides links to Florida Keys information. The top of the page reads: “That’s it. We surrender. Winter, you win. Key West anyone?� Ithaca and the rest of upstate New York have been in the grips of a snowy and brutally cold winter.

Roof worries Two New Hampshire school districts remain closed a day after schools were evacuated over concerns of snow buildup on roofs. A teacher noticed the ceiling sagging in a classroom at Sanborn Middle School in Newton on Monday and cracks were seen around the doorways of some classrooms in Epping. On Tuesday, Moharimet Elementary School in Madbury was evacuated after cracks were seen on the walls, believed to be caused by the heavy snow on the roof.

Icy roads Roads were icy and slushy, making driving difficult in many places and

causing at least six traffic fatalities. There were three deaths in Tennessee, including a mother and son in Williamson County who stopped to help a stranded motorist and were struck by a tractor-trailer. Two people were killed in Virginia as nearly a foot of snow fell in some places. In North Carolina, a woman died in a two-car crash in the northeastern part of the state.

day. Despite the thick blanket of snow along his street, Seney, 60, was confident his sporty ride could handle the roads. In fact, he planned to drive to his boat harbored at James Creek Marina in southwest Washington. “I’ll shovel the snow off, make sure it’s not frozen too much because the harbor is all frozen in,� Seney said.

Body slam, but not in snow

Trying to fly

In Sterling, Virginia, high-school wrestlers are training for the state tournament, but with practices canceled, they have had to find a workout. Some head to Top of the Podium, a nonprofit youth wrestling facility. Tom Houck, a former college wrestler who runs the place, opens up on snow days and holds open mat sessions. “If they’re trying to make weight, it’s critical that they get their workout in,� Houck said. The first snow day this school year saw only five or six wrestlers. As word spread, nearly 60 wrestlers are showing up.

Sports car in the snow? “I’ll just back up and fly out,� is the strategy Brent Seney had for freeing his black convertible Mazda Miata from the snow in the nation’s capital Tues-

Trudging along a snowy sidewalk, Robin Winter and her daughter, Melissa, made their way to a Metro station in Washington so Mom could catch her flight home to St. Louis. Robin Winter, carrying multiple bags and sporting a sock monkey hat, said she’d gotten into town Thursday, and had been watching the forecasts as the snow made its way across the country. “If I would have decided to fly out Sunday night instead, you never know for sure if it’s gonna really happen until it really happens,� she said. The Winters were optimistic the flight would not be canceled, though they were prepared for a delay. It appeared her flight left on time, but others weren’t so lucky. More than 1,800 flights were canceled at many airports, from Nashville, Tennessee, to the nation’s capital.

Corinth, Miss.

Damaging admissions Opponents of charter schools have claimed that these schools are “cherry-picking” the students they admit, and that this explains why many charter schools get better educational results with less money than public schools do. Many controversies about how students should be admitted to educational institutions, especially those supported by the taxpayers, betray a fundamental confusion about what these institutions are there for. This applies to both schools and colleges. Admitting students strictly Thomas on the basis of their academic Sowell qualifications, which might seem to be common sense, is Columnist rejected by many college admissions committees. A dean of admissions at Harvard, years ago, said, “the question we ask is: how well has this person used the opportunities available to him or her?” In other words, the issue is seen as which of the competing applicants are more deserving. Since some people have had far better educational opportunities than others, that is supposed to be taken into account in deciding whom to admit. This myopic view of admissions decisions, as a question of choosing between applicant A versus applicant B, totally ignores the reason for the existence of educational institutions in the first place. These institutions were not created in order to dispense favors to particular individuals, but to confer benefits on society at large, by supplying graduates with skills valuable to the other members of society. When Jonas Salk applied to selective Townsend Harris High School in New York, and later to the then-selective City College of New York (CCNY), there might well have been some other student, not quite as academically qualified, who could have been admitted instead, on the basis of having overcome greater handicaps than Jonas Salk had. But the relevant question is: Would that other student have been equally likely to create a vaccine that would banish the scourge of polio? The track record of New York’s selective public high schools – especially the most selective, Stuyvesant, Bronx Science and Brooklyn Tech – includes graduates whose contributions have created social benefits that have led to all sorts of awards and prizes, up to and including Nobel Prizes, seven Nobel Prizes in physics alone for graduates of the Bronx High School of Science alone. Attacks on selective educational institutions, including attacks on academic qualifications as prime criteria, have been made across the country, for years on end. In New York, the attack on strict academic admissions standards at CCNY succeeded decades ago, while attacks on the selective public high schools have not yet succeeded. Those who attacked the strict admissions standards at CCNY demanded “open admissions” – which was an impossible demand from the outset. If just anybody could get into CCNY, then it would no longer be CCNY in any meaningful sense, so what would those admitted accomplish by getting in? They could get into the buildings but there was no longer the same education there. Turning what had once been known as “the poor man’s Harvard” into just another failing institution was apparently an object lesson. “Open admissions” was dropped. Today teachers’ unions are attacking charter schools for supposedly “cherry-picking” which students to admit. In reality, the students are usually chosen by lottery, but there is selectivity in the sense that the most concerned parents are more likely to put their children’s names in the lottery, and the most successful children are the ones most likely to stay on to graduate. Any hope of successfully educating poor minority children depends on separating them from the hoodlums who make education impossible in so many ghetto schools. If charter schools do that, more power to them. (Daily Corinthian columnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305. His website is www.tsowell.com.)

Prayer for today Lord God, give me the will to hold to the truth and the strength to help keep the world true; and may I help others to look up and catch the truth from the purest light. Amen.

A verse to share “And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.” — 1 Samuel 30:6

‘Blue Wall’ not impregnable to Republicans Do Republicans have a realistic chance to win the next presidential election? Some analysts suggest the answer is no. They argue that there is a 240-electoral-vote “blue wall” of 18 states and D.C. that have gone Democratic in the last six presidential elections. A Democratic nominee needs only 30 more electoral votes to win the presidency, they note accurately. A Republican nominee, they suggest, has little chance of breaking through the blue wall. He (or she) would have to win 270 of the 298 other electoral votes. Democrats do have an advantage in the electoral vote, because heavily Democratic clusters clinch about 170 electoral votes for them, while Republicans have a lock on only about 105. But the blue wall theory, like all political rules of thumb, is true only till it’s not. And this one could easily prove inoperative in a competitive 2016 race. To see why, go back and put yourself in the shoes of a Democratic strategist following the 2004 presidential race. Assume that a stronger 2008 Democratic nominee will win all of John Kerry’s 252 electoral votes (which happened). Then take a look at the states in which Kerry won 43 percent or more of the popular vote. The four states in which Kerry won 48 percent or more – Iowa, New Mexico,

Ohio, Nevada – were obvious targets, seriously contested in three or four of the previMichael ous four elecBarone tions. Add Florida (47 Columnist percent for Kerry and obviously closely contested) and you have 318 electoral votes easily accessible in a good Democratic year. What states should you target beyond that? It depends on who your nominee is. If it’s Hillary Clinton, you might look at Missouri, Arkansas, Arizona, Tennessee and West Virginia. Bill Clinton won Arizona once and the other four twice, and Hillary Clinton won all but Missouri in the 2008 primaries. These states’ 43 electoral votes raise the potential win to 361. If your nominee is Barack Obama, your targets are different. You might look at Colorado, Virginia and North Carolina, plus Missouri. All but Colorado have large minority populations, and all but Missouri have large blocs of upscale whites – groups among which Obama demonstrated strong appeal in 2008 primaries. These states had 48 electoral votes in 2008. Obama won all but Missouri’s 11 and made up for that by winning 11 in Indiana, a 39

percent Kerry state. The lesson here is that in a favorable opinion climate, a party can successfully target previously unwinnable states containing voting blocs that can be moved or just mobilized. It helps greatly if, like Obama, they increase their turnout in primaries. Likewise, a Republican strategist looking ahead to 2016 has 12 states where Mitt Romney won 43 to 49 percent of the vote in 2012. Add some significant share of their 146 electoral votes to the 206 Romney won, and you get well above the 270 majority. At the top of the list are perennial targets Florida and Ohio. Just below, at 47 percent in favor of Romney, are Virginia and – part of the supposedly immoveable blue wall – Pennsylvania. Republicans nearly beat a popular Democratic senator in Virginia last year and have been making steady gains in bluecollar Western Pennsylvania. Those four states added to Romney’s would give Republicans 286 electoral votes – George W. Bush’s winning total in 2004. What states could Republicans target beyond that? A nominee with Midwestern appeal might go after Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota (42 electoral votes). One with Hispanic appeal could target Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico (20 electoral

votes). One with appeal to upscale whites could target Colorado, New Hampshire and Minnesota (23 electoral votes). One with workingclass appeal might choose Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan (32 electoral votes). Critics might ask whether a 2016 Republican nominee can count on all the Romney states. Certainly not, if the party is as unpopular as it was in 2008. And North Carolina, a 48 percent Obama state, certainly looks like a realistic Democratic target in a close race. But Obama got no more than 45 percent in other Romney states. Of the six where he got 44 or 45 percent, Democrats have had little success lately, even when running candidates better adapted to the local terrain than Hillary Clinton would be. None looks like a good Democratic target. Republicans looking to 2016 can learn from Democrats’ 2008 success. Target wisely, and think of states you haven’t carried in years. And use the primaries to expand potentially favorable blocs.

Bobby Jindal for president? Gov. Bobby Jindal’s name is not first on most people’s list of candidates for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, but maybe we should at least start paying attention to him. If one’s political enemies are any indication of potential strength, Jindal of Louisiana may be a more formidable force than some people realize. During a visit to Washington Monday, Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank couldn’t wait to attack Jindal and his record. Why bother with someone he and others consider a lightweight from a small Southern state, unless there is more there than the elites think? In an interview with me, Jindal gave long and rapid-fire answers. The governor, ineligible for reelection due to term limits, seemed in a hurry. He said he’d decide in “two to three months” whether to run for president. In January 2009, when I interviewed Jindal in his office in Baton Rouge, just days before President Obama’s inauguration, the governor told me Republicans must decide what they are for before picking a presidential candidate.

How’s that going? “We’re doing better,” he says, “but we have more work to do.” thinks Cal He Thomas Republicans should stop Columnist a t t a c k i n g Obamacare and start emphasizing what they would replace it with. He also faults members of his party for running against Obamacare in the last election and then “throwing in the towel and saying, ‘Well, you can’t really repeal tax increases; you can’t really undo an entitlement program.’” Jindal wants Republicans to get away from defining themselves as anti-Obama and the party of “no” and start showing people “we can be principled, conservative, not just a cheaper version of the Democratic Party.” What about Hillary Clinton? Can she be defeated if she runs? “Absolutely,” says a confident Jindal, as if he were coaching a team against a superior opponent. “As Republicans we don’t need to obsess about our opponents, we don’t need to define ourselves in opposition to our

opponents. Let (Democrats) look backward; we need to look forward.” He says voters want the hard truth told to them, which immediately brings to mind the oft-quoted Jack Nicholson line from “A Few Good Men”: “You can’t handle the truth.” In the age that obsesses with cultural embarrassments like the Kardashian family, the truth – if we can agree on what that is – may be the last thing people want to hear. But Jindal’s sentiment is a noble one. I ask him about the potential candidacy of former former-Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida, and Jindal adopts Reagan’s “11th Commandment” admonition never to criticize a fellow Republican: “Anybody who is thinking about running doesn’t need to define himself against particular candidates. We need to say what we are for.” While Jindal says he “has a lot of respect” for Bush, who once championed Common Core federal education standards. Jindal, however, opposes it. He adds he doesn’t want to see “the establishment, the party donors, trying to clear the field for anybody. An open debate is good for the voters.”

On foreign policy, he and former Sen. Jim Talent (RMo.) have written a paper on the subject. Among other things, he wants to arm the Kurds in their fight against ISIS in Iraq and demonstrate to our allies America’s resolve to support them in any fight against the Islamic State, support he thinks is lacking under the Obama administration. He would also send arms to the Ukrainian military now fighting Russian troops. On social issues, Jindal, a Roman Catholic, says: “I’m not changing my position on marriage or protecting human life. I know it’s fashionable for a lot of politicians to change their minds ...” It doesn’t matter what the polls say on this. I’m not evolving with the polls.” Jindal is a long shot for president and even vice president, but he brings enthusiasm, a positive outlook and a decent record as governor and that’s not a bad start for any presidential candidate.

Train carrying crude continues to burn MOUNT CARBON, W.Va. — Oil from North Dakota’s shale fields was still burning in West Virginia a day after a train carrying more than 3 million gallons of crude derailed in a snowstorm, shooting fireballs into the sky. Hundreds of families were evacuated and nearby water treatment plants were temporarily shut down after 19 tanker cars left the tracks and caught fire, leaking oil into a Kanawha River tributary and burning a nearby house down to its foundation. “There’s nothing there,” said Democratic U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, who toured the scene. “All you can see is a couple of blocks sticking out of the ground. There’s some pickup trucks out front completely burned to the ground.” One person — the homeowner — was treated for smoke inhalation, but no other injuries were reported, according to the train company, CSX. The two-person crew, an engineer and conductor, managed to decouple the train’s engines from the wreck behind it and walk away unharmed. The train derailed near unincorporated Mount Carbon, two miles after passing through Montgomery, a town of 1,946, on a stretch where the rails wind along a narrow flood plain, past businesses and homes that crowd the bases of steep, tree-covered hills.

Media will not get hazing case access TRENTON, N.J. — A New Jersey appeals court ruled Tuesday that juvenile court hearings for seven high school students charged in a football hazing investigation will remain closed to the media. The court agreed with a Family Court judge who said in denying public access that the goal of rehabilitating the juvenile defendants from the Sayreville War Memorial High School team “would be thwarted” and “community backlash” against them enhanced if the media had access to the hearings. In upholding the judge’s decision, the appeals court also agreed that media access could lead to a back-

lash against the alleged victims, who are also juveniles. On another point, however, the court said the media can name the defendants if the information is obtained from outside court proceedings. The Associated Press, NJ Advance Media, Gannett New Jersey Newspapers and ABC Inc. appealed the Family Court decision after requesting access to the hearings as a First Amendment right. They also argued that allowing public access to the case would provide an outlet “for community concern” in the highly charged case. The AP does not generally name juvenile suspects and has not identified the suspects from Sayreville.

Defense chief vows to protect troops WASHINGTON — Ash Carter, sworn in Tuesday as President Barack Obama’s fourth secretary of defense amid multiple global threats, pledged to offer his most candid strategic advice and carefully consider decisions about sending troops into harm’s way. Hours after taking the oath of office, Carter met with Obama and Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office to discuss the security challenges that await him in the new job. Obama said their discussion covered battles in Ukraine, the threat from Islamic State militants and countering violent extremism that he said has been “turbocharged through the Internet.” “I could not be more confident that Ash Carter is going to do an outstanding job as secretary of defense, and he is hitting the ground running,” Obama said, citing Carter’s experience in other leadership positions at the Pentagon.

Carter, 60, replaces Chuck Hagel, who resigned under pressure after a rocky relationship with the White House. In an email to all Defense Department personnel, Carter wrote that the challenging times “demand leadership and focus.” “In addressing these challenges, I have pledged to provide the president my most candid strategic advice,” Carter wrote.

Holder backs drug sentencing policies WASHINGTON — Federal prosecutors are changing the way drug defendants are charged and punished, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday, unveiling statistics that show sentences are increasingly being based less on rigid formulas and more on the circumstances of each crime. It’s a signature issue for Holder’s legacy as he prepares to leave the Justice Department in a matter of weeks as its first African American attorney general. New data compiled by the U.S. Sentencing Commission show a shift over the last year in which prosecutors steer away from seeking the harshest punishments for low-level drug offenders and redirect their resources to go after more violent criminals. The figures show federal prosecutors pursued mandatory minimum punishments in roughly 51 percent of drug cases, the lowest rate on record, in the year that ended last September. That was down from 64 percent the year before. Overall, the number of federal drug trafficking prosecutions dropped by 6 percent during the same period, which Holder said was proof that prosecutors are getting pickier in the federal cases they bring.

DA seeks info about Chambers’ final day BATESVILLE — Panola County District Attorney John Champion says authorities still seek details on where Jessica Chambers was in the last hour before she was found burned. Champion held a news conference Tuesday, discussing where else the 19-year-old woman traveled on her life’s last day. He hopes releasing the information will encourage more people to contact authorities with tips that could lead to whoever killed Chambers. She was found walking from her blazing car after 8 p.m. on Dec. 6. near Courtland. She had been burned over 98 percent of her body. Investigators want to know where she was between 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. WMC-TV reports authorities have details about her whereabouts for nearly every other moment of that day. Anyone with information is asked to call CrimeStoppers at 1-800729-2169.

Alday ‘deeply sorry’ for racist remarks JACKSON — A DeSoto County lawmaker apologized Tuesday for saying that in the town where he used to be mayor, “all the blacks are getting food stamps and what I call ‘welfare crazy checks.’ Rep. Gene Alday, R-Walls, delivered his apology in a 30-second speech to the Mississippi House of Represen-

tatives. “I’m deeply sorry for my recent statements. I was wrong to say what I did, and there is no excuse for my behavior,” Alday said. “I value the relationships I have made with everyone in this House. I am so sorry. I made a great mistake, and I appreciate every one of you.” House members gave Alday polite applause after he spoke, and he then left the floor of the House. The muted reaction contrasted to the backlash he received Monday, a day after The Clarion-Ledger newspaper published the story with his comments about Walls, the town where Alday was police chief and mayor before being elected to the House in 2011.

Election panel seeks more party duties BRANDON — The Rankin County Election Commission is looking

to share more duties of running primary elections in the county with party executive committees going forward. In an email to the county’s Republican and Democratic committee chairmen, the election commission proposed the parties take on more of the duties, including sending poll workers and managers to training, coordinating with the Circuit Clerk’s office on getting ballot information and having workers available in all precincts on Election Day. State law says primaries are the responsibility of county executive committees, though they can contract with the commission to help with the duties. Rankin Democratic Executive Committee Chairman Ryan Brown said it will certainly be a change from the way things have worked in the past, and “my committee will have to step up their game and engage more in the logistics of the primary.”

Lawmakers back property-tax break for seniors BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi homeowners older than 65 could get a break on their property taxes under a proposal some lawmakers are pushing. The House Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday passed House Bill 216, which would freeze assessed values of homes owned by senior citizens and disabled people unless their homes are renovated or expanded. Taxes could still rise if local governments raise tax rates. Rep. Manly Barton, RMoss Point, said the bill is designed to give tax relief to residents of counties where increasing property values can cause people to owe more taxes even if tax rates stay flat. “What we are trying to do is to protect those seniors who are on a fixed income,” Barton said. County supervisors are opposing the measure, saying it will deprive counties of needed tax money, or shift tax burdens onto others. Steve Gray, a lobbyist for the Mississippi Association of Supervisors, said it is unclear how the measure would impact counties. “There are too many unknowns,” he said after the committee passed the bill, sending it to the full House for further debate. Currently, regular taxpayers get an exemption on up to the first $300 in

taxes. People older than 65 and those who are totally disabled get an exemption from taxes on their first $75,000 in value. Though he supported the bill, Rep. Tommy Reynolds, D-Water Valley, questioned whether senior citizens were the only people deserving of tax relief. “I really think the ones that are having a hard time in the economy are young married people with children,” Reynolds said. “The people who are our age are not having a hard time.” Last year, a plan that would have increased general homestead exemptions from $300 a year to $360 a year died an abrupt death after House leaders decided its $69 million price tag was too steep. The state is supposed to pay for $100 of the regular exemption, but is currently $3 million short of the $87 million needed for full funding. Barton said that an analysis of tax rolls in Jackson County showed that after the last countywide reappraisal of property, the measure would have cost about $600,000 in revenue. He said increased property values still increased tax revenue by $8.6 million. Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jeff Smith, R-Columbus, pledged to get a statewide estimate before the House considers the measure.

‘Kingsman’ brings enough battles for all Kingsman: The Secret Service. R. ***1/2. Colin Firth, Taron Egaton, Samuel L. Jackson. Director Matthew Vaughn. 20th Century Fox. Length 129 minutes. The movie begins when a secret service organization attacks some bad guys while on a mission in the Middle East. Harry Hart (Colin Firth), known as Galahad, and his group of exceptionally trained spies are helping to do away with some horrific individuals. Unfortunately, a bad situation takes place that will haunt Harry Hart for a long time. The movie has wild and crazy action scenes

throughout its 129 minutes of run time. The accomplishment this top Terry notch seBurns cret service organizaMovie Critic tion brings to the audience allows the viewers exciting and fun entertainment. The organization known as Kingsman is determined to get the very best recruits, and those trying to make the grade have some very dangerous training to overcome. They have to be prepared for anything

and everything in order to be sure their enemies are eradicated. To do that they must be top notch soldiers. The movie opens with a bang and the battering continues until the final scene. In fact it will probably get the audience tired by the time it is over. Hart gives a young man named Eggsy (Taron Egerton) a chance at becoming a Kingman. He does not seem to be the type to be a secret service agent. Hart has a reason to give him a chance in order to see if he can make it to the big league of spies. He has a motivation for doing this, but

the reader will have to see the movie to find out why Hart chose this guy from the streets. This method is not the usual way the Kingsman recruit their spies. The recruits have a very tough time. It would seem they could be told a few things along the way. However, teaching them the way it should be done helps the recruits to think. A great leader will talk to his employees instead of telling them everything is just fine twice, and two weeks later get rid of him. That my friend is not a leader - it is a monarch who listens to people that fail to get the truth and really know what is tak-

ing place and what the real accuracy is, nor does his partner care as long as he gets what he wants. Check his driving history, and his reason for leaving in the first place and then returning. In the famous words of Sir Walter Scott “Oh what a tangled web we weave when at first we practice to deceive.” Valentine (Samuel L Jackson) plays a bad guy as the audience will understand as the film progresses. Valentine has an interesting way of talking and getting across his purpose as a bad guy. The audience gets a few attention-grabbing Great Britain languages

and their proper way of delivering their conversations. One character bites the dust. I did not want that to happen, but it did. The audience will have to see the movie to find out who checked out. I will not spoil that scene for movie goers like myself who do not want to be told. A great leader will talk to his people and let them know - what are the problems or what is not the problem, and how can we fix it. (Terry Burns is the movie critic for the Daily Corinthian.

The brain remains our most powerful asset in life Many people look for an edge in life to help them get ahead. They search outside themselves for some type of advantage. Yet, within you exists the most powerful asset you could hope for; your brain. Going through life without thinking puts you at a significant disadvantage. Your brain controls your thoughts, which determine your attitude, which in turn guides your actions. The difference between successful people and those who struggle is their attitude. Your brain is the ultimate arbiter of what you accomplish in life. Use your brain to assess your progress and determine the course of action necessary to achieve your goals. Actively thinking about what is occurring

in your life and why, is a key to success. If you don’t understand cause and Bryan effect relaGolden tionships, you won’t Dare to Live Without Limits be able to take corrective action as needed. When something doesn’t work out as intended, answer the following four questions: What happened? Why did it happen? What did you learn? What can you do to prevent it from happening again? This approach provides the most benefit from mistakes you make. In order to realize different results, you must change what you are doing. Doing the same thing

over and over and expecting something to change is one definition of insanity. When you feel bummed out, annoyed, upset, angry, irritated, or any other negative emotion, use your brain to determine the cause of your feelings. Once you know this, you can formulate a strategy to deal with the cause. This is a more intelligent approach compared to either ignoring your emotions or waiting for your feelings to go away. Unfortunately, too many people consider their attitude a response rather than a cause. They wait until things are good to feel happy. They will develop a positive attitude once they encounter positive circumstances. These people act as passengers rather than drivers. They

are passive instead of proactive. Sadly, they are not taking advantage of even a fraction of their brain’s power. Your brain gives you the ability to learn from the past. You can learn what works and what doesn’t. The obvious goal is to repeat what works and avoid what doesn’t. It’s a colossal waste of time to do the opposite. Learning from the experience of others is far more efficient than learning from your own. Use your brain to research what has worked for those who are where you want to be. Emulating their approach is the intelligent thing to do. Think before you act. This is especially true when you are angry or upset. Allow yourself enough time to calm down before

deciding what action is appropriate. Decisions made while in emotional turmoil are often regretted. Avoiding problems takes much less effort than repairing damage caused by acting in haste. Don’t live in a fog. Use your brain to pay attention to the direction you are heading. Is it where you want to go? If not, what needs to be done to get you back on track? Be honest about your circumstances. You do yourself a disservice by living in denial. You’ve undoubtedly asked yourself, “what were they thinking?” in response to obviously stupid things other people do. Don’t be one of those people. Always be aware of your thoughts along with how they are impacting your life.

Your brain is a magnet. You attract what you think about. Monitor your thoughts to ensure you are thinking about only those situations you want in your life. People with a negative attitude think about what they don’t want which actually attracts that which they are looking to avoid. Keep your brain engaged to constantly assess where you are and where you want to be. Change course as needed. Don’t let your most powerful asset be underutilized.

Mardi Gras in New Orleans means day of parades, partying Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — Revelers bundled up in winter coats with the occasional glitzy costume filled the streets of New Orleans on Tuesday for the annual Mardi Gras bash, opening a day of partying, parades and good-natured jostling for beads and trinkets tossed from passing floats. Retired clarinetist Pete Fountain rode a mini float decked out as a streetcar as his Half-Fast Walking Club kicked off a day of parades on Fat Tuesday — historically the day when cooking fats would be used up before the austerities of Lent.

The Rev. Byron Miller started Fountain’s group on its way with a prayer, invoking “the God of laughter and love” as marchers set out on a miles-long trek after early morning rain cleared out, leaving many buttoning up amid temperatures in the 30s and 40s early in the day. Celebrities and celebrity watchers are also around each Mardi Gras and this year was no exception. The cast of the CBS crime drama “NCIS: New Orleans” got an early taste of the season on Monday, riding in the parade of Orpheus and tossing beads to revelers lining city

streets before heading to an overnight ball. Other celebrities joining in this year’s revelry were comedian Ron White and country music star Dierks Bentley. Al Johnson, singer of the catchy Mardi Gras tune “Carnival Time,” served as grand marshal of the Red Beans and Rice foot parade, another Monday

prelude to the day. Some got a jump on the day’s celebrations by donning tuxedoes and evening gowns for elegant balls lasting into the early hours Tuesday. Ordinary folks took to dressing up. Friends Alexandra Sergutin and Ashley Dornier of New Orleans said donning elegant gowns for the Carnival balls is one of

Dogwood Plantation A Guardian Residence

their favorite Mardi Gras activities. “It feels good to be a part of that tradition. It really does. It touches

your heart,” said Sergutin, draped in colorful beads. “ ... You’re a part of something amazing and big.”

Minutes from the Federal Reserveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent meeting could offer new insight on Fed officialsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; policy discussions. The central bank is due to release today the minutes from a two-day meeting of its policymakers last month. At the Jan. 27-28 meeting, the panel reaffirmed that it would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;patientâ&#x20AC;? in raising its key short-term interest rate from near zero. Many economists have forecast a rate hike no earlier than June.

Construction of new U.S. homes ended 2014 at the highest level since the peak of the housing boom nine years ago. Builders broke ground on new condos and single-family homes at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.09 million in December. Economists anticipate that pace didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold last month, however. They expect the Commerce Department will report today that new home construction slowed in January.

Colleague’s texts suggest she has more in mind than work D E A R ABBY: My husband is a handsome executive who works out of town. I’m a proAbigail f e s s i o n a l a reVan Buren with sponsible job that limits Dear Abby my ability to travel. I needed to borrow his phone recently and noticed that one of his colleagues has been texting him after hours. She asks if he has traveled safely, tells him she misses him, how much she enjoys working with him -- all with romantic emoticons. I’m concerned that the flattery and emoticons indicate she wants more than a work-based relationship. She’s married with kids. How should I approach this? -- WORRIED WIFE IN KENTUCKY DEAR WORRIED WIFE: Because there have been more than one of these flirtatious, unbusinesslike communications, assume that your husband hasn’t discouraged them. Confront him. Tell him you feel what she’s doing is a threat to your marriage, and you want it stopped. But before you do, make cop-

ies of the texts so you can confront the woman with them if she doesn’t stop. DEAR ABBY: Is it OK for a man to talk on his cellphone at the urinal in a public restroom, or for a woman to talk on the phone while using the toilet in one of the stalls? Also, please remind everyone to wash their hands after using the restroom. -- RUSSELL IN RICHLAND, WASH. DEAR RUSSELL: I can think of few things more unpleasant than conversing with someone with the sound of “running water” (or worse) in the background and toilets flushing. Why anyone would do this is beyond me. It’s very rude. And, while I can remind people about hand-washing until the cows come home, I’ll suggest instead that men and women who use public restrooms not touch the door handle without a paper towel -- when available -- firmly in hand. DEAR ABBY: I grew up in the ‘90s in a neighborhood where the kids respected their neighbors. I now live in a different state and, obviously, a different era. Neighborhood kids constantly use my steep driveway to ride their bicycles, tricycles and scooters without asking permis-

sion. Am I right in thinking this is rude, because in my opinion, they are trespassing? Not only could I be held responsible if one of them gets hurt on my property, but they also are extremely loud and do this while my children are trying to nap. They have been asked to stop, and I have threatened to talk to their parents, even though I don’t know where they live. What do I do? -- FRUSTRATED HOMEOWNER DEAR FRUSTRATED: Discuss this with your insurance broker. You are correct that if one of the children gets hurt on your property you could be liable. You also need to be more proactive than you have been. Tell the kids they are disturbing your children who are trying to nap, and if the kids don’t go away, find out where they live and talk to the other parents. It would be cheaper than having to install a gate in front of your driveway. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Where’s your stash of mad cash? You know, the money you can spend on whatever you want, no guilt. You’ll find something worthy of purchase today. If you don’t have this kind of a stash, it’s a lucky time to start saving. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Truth-telling time: You don’t mind inclement weather because it gives you an excuse to stay in. When the weather is fine, you don’t have the excuse, and you’ll have to create one. You just really want to stay in. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s something you want to know, and you might go so far as to snoop to figure it out. Is this wrong? You’ll have to make the moral determinations alone, because if you tell, the whole thing changes. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll debate staying in or going out. This probably pertains to the weekend, but you have to make the decision now because your plans won’t come together

if you wait. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Being cool won’t necessarily make you happy. Also, if you know better, smiling and nodding won’t work. Dare to be uncool, and don’t go along with things you know aren’t quite right. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Having your work cut out for you is actually a good thing when you think about it -- better than having your work uncut and trying to figure out what you’re supposed to do. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There was once a popular vaudeville routine involving three comedians in which the comedian who got the punchline also got a banana. You’re top banana today, getting all the laughs. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s time to face the fact that you have real needs that are not being met. A breathtaking moment is the main feature of the day. You’ll be talking about this one with your best friends. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-

Dec. 21). Sometimes it feels like you’re being forced to act like you’re having fun. Roll with it, and then don’t be surprised when the act turns into actual fun and lots of it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your habits will define you, at least in the eyes of others. This is the reason you try so hard today to change one of them, and if you keep trying daily for the rest of February, you’ll succeed. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You don’t mind taking on other people’s perspective as a way of finding out where they are coming from. Just be sure to give that perspective back after you try it on, because your own perspective will serve you much better. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). According to one song, sleeping eyes never lie. Last night’s dreams had some rather interesting truths hidden inside them, if you can remember that far back. If not, the same truth will show up in your day.

Last Sunday’s qualifying session for the upcoming Daytona 500 was the first using the “knockout” format, and when it was done, Jeff Gordon won the pole — for his final Daytona 500 — with a speed of 201.293 miles per hour. His Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jimmie Johnson will start alongside him, with the remainder of the starting lineup to be set after Thursday night’s Gatorade Duel qualifying races. “This is definitely huge for many reasons,” Gordon said. “This is one I’ve been stressing about for a while. This format is crazy and chaotic. It Jeff Gordon won the pole for can be extremely rewarding the 2015 Daytona 500; Dale when you have a day like we Earnhardt Jr., last year’s winner, saw his qualifying time disalhad.” The three-round qualifying lowed in post-race inspection. format worked out just fine for Gordon and Johnson, but several others had harsh words for the process, in which drivers qualify in three sessions, with multiple cars on the track in each one. Clint Bowyer, who wrecked with Reed Sorenson in the opening segment on Sunday, will have to race his way into the starting field by finishing at least 15th in his Duel on Thursday. “It’s idiotic to be out here doing this anyway,” Bowyer said, adding that he didn’t blame Sorenson for trying every move he could to get his car — damaged on the start — into the field for the Daytona 500. “It ain’t his fault. It’s not. It’s NASCAR’s fault for putting us out here in the middle of this crap for nothing.” Tony Stewart tweeted that the format was “a complete embarrassment for our Series.” Ryan Newman was a little more diplomatic. “The frustrating part is dealing with this whole system, which makes no sense whatsoever,” he said. “It’s hard to stand behind NASCAR when everybody I talk to up and down pit road doesn’t understand why we’re doing this.” The knockout format has worked fairly well at most tracks, but at Daytona and Talladega — where a driver’s speed

Knockout qualifying for Daytona 500 frustrates several Sprint Cup drivers

NOTEBOOK Enfinger victorious in Lucas Oil 200

Clint Bowyer, who wrecked with Reed Sorensen during knockout qualifying for the Daytona 500, blamed NASCAR for “putting us out here … for nothing.” depends on aerodynamic support from other drivers — it has been problematic. NASCAR’s Executive Vice President Steve O’Donnell met with members of the media and indicated that he understood the frustrations of drivers like Bowyer. “If you look at group qualifying as a whole, we felt it worked really well, but certainly there are some challenges on superspeedways,” he said. “We don’t want to see wrecks of any kind. It’s not lost on us how much work goes into these cars by the teams, the efforts for our biggest race of the year.” O’Donnell indicated that NASCAR officials are willing to modify the format in the future. “I believe we’ve got a really good track record of making adjustments where we need to, so we’ll certainly evaluate what took place [Sunday],” he said. “We’ll continue to get feedback from the industry, from the drivers as we did to get to where we were [Sunday].” After qualifying, the times of Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Denny Hamlin were disallowed because their cars failed post-race inspections. In the end, 13 drivers are assured of starting the Daytona 500 this Sunday. Gordon and Johnson secured their starting positions. Also assured of starting spots somewhere in the lineup based on their speeds are Aric Almirola, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Carl Edwards and Jamie McMurray. Kevin Harvick, Ryan Newman, Denny Hamlin, Joey Logano, Brad Keselowski and Matt Kenseth will get in based on their points finish last year, and Tony Stewart will be eligible for a past champion’s provisional, should he fail to qualify Thursday night.

Last Saturday night’s Sprint Unlimited at Daytona International Speedway saw two drivers who had disappointing 2014 seasons get the current campaign underway on positive notes. Matt Kenseth, who went winless last year after scoring a circuit-leading seven victories in 2013, won the non-points season opener. Finishing second was Martin Truex Jr., who had a miserable 2014 — leading just one lap all season and ending the year 24th in the standings. Kenseth, who led 21 laps Saturday, took the lead from eventual third-place finisher Carl Edwards with six of 75 laps remaining, then held off a late charge from Truex, who led a race-high 29 laps. Casey Mears finished fourth, with Kyle Larson fifth. A Lap 23 wreck involving 14 drivers led to a 15-minute redflag period and took out some of the top contenders, leaving just 12 of the 25 starters on the lead lap at the finish. Kenseth, who has two Daytona 500 victories but had never won the Unlimited before Saturday night, said he wasn’t surprised by the aggressive driving and resulting wrecks. “I’ve seen a lot of [restrictor]-plate races the last 15 years,” he said. “More end up like that than don’t, especially the first race of the year, seems like.” For Truex, the strong run was a relief after a 2014 season that was challenging on and off the track. Last year at Daytona, he started the 500 from the outside pole, but suffered a blown engine after 30 laps and finished 43rd, establishing

With Jeff Gordon about to embark on his final full-time Sprint Cup season, there’s been lots of talk about the bigpicture impact of his participation in NASCAR. Gordon is credited with starting a youth movement with his early success while just in his early 20s. And many feel he’s responsible for opening the NASCAR door for open-wheel short-track racers from the Midwest. But Gordon and others say it’s much more complex than that. “I was one of like a hundred different things that were going on in the sport at that time that were good decisions, good choices, good things happening that really contributed to the sport growing at a fast rate and giving opportunity,” Gordon said, pointing out that he wasn’t the first to race in Cup at a young age or the first to move from the sprint car ranks to NASCAR. “Ricky Rudd was really young when he came along, so I’m not the only guy. Ken Schrader was an open-wheel driver, so I think the difference is I was one of the first open-wheel young guys to come along and then win a championship.” Gordon said that despite his success, it was difficult for him to earn respect from fans and those in the garage in the early days of his NASCAR career. “When I came in, I always felt like I was the outsider, that I wasn’t accepted, and that I had to do things my way, but also to try to earn that respect,” he said. “I had a lot of guys inside the garage that didn’t accept me, some fans that didn’t accept me in the sport in a lot of ways, but luckily my team did, and they believed in me. And then I went out and did the things that I did. “It took about 10 or 15 years before I feel like that respect was earned.” Ryan Newman, who followed the same career path as Schrader, Gordon, Tony Stewart and others, said the key factor was that the sprint cars, Midgets and Silver Crown cars he and his peers drove better prepared them for Sprint Cup cars — especially when the Cup series switched from bias-ply to radial tires, which required an all-new driving style for the veteran Cup drivers used to running bias-ply tires. “The way the kind of cars that the open-wheel racers raced, with the lack of downforce, the kind of tires, the dirt and the sliding around that we had to do carcontrol-wise, definitely helped us with the bigger race cars,” he said. “I think that when Jeff Gordon showed up, it was right at the transition of bias-ply tires to radials, so that helped play into the effect, too. “A lot of drivers were having trouble with the radials, but open-wheel drivers knew how to slide a car and maintain it. Like even Dale Earnhardt Sr., from the stories that I read, he struggled with the radials at first, just because he couldn’t drive it the way that he did with a bias-ply.”

Jeff Gordon open to returning to some NUMERICALLY NASCAR tracks after his retirement SPEAKING Jeff Gordon told reporters during last week’s media day that this year’s Daytona 500 will be his final start in the Great American Race, but he also said that it might not mean that fans won’t ever see him racing in Sprint Cup after he retires from full-time competition this season. He said that while he has no desire to compete in the often wild restrictorplate races at Daytona and Talladega, he’s open to returning to some of his favorite tracks, like Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Martinsville Speedway. “I’m not saying that I won’t ever run another Brickyard,” Gordon said. “I definitely won’t be running another restrictor plate race. Show me the risk versus reward there.” He said that comment shouldn’t be taken as being overly critical of the kind of racing that occurs at Daytona and Talladega. “Fans should actually look at that as a good thing, because they don’t want us to always be comfortable out there,” he said. “They want to understand that we’re in a white-knuckle experience and that it’s terrifying in some ways. It’s hectic, it’s physical, it’s mental, and so the restrictor-plate tracks are — for a guy that doesn’t want to race full

Joe Gibbs Racing: No deal for Carl Edwards’ 2014 points In the past, when Sprint Cup team owners added a new driver and car to their lineup, they also made arrangements to secure the points earned the previous season by another team, so the driver wouldn’t be in danger of missing one of the early season races in which provisional starting spots are based on last season’s points standings. But when Carl Edwards moved to Joe Gibbs Carl Edwards Racing this season, there was no deal for last year’s points, leaving Edwards vulnerable for the first five races of 2015. After that, provisional starting spots are based on the current year’s points standings. Team owner Joe Gibbs acknowledged the risks, saying he decided against moves like swapping points between Matt Kenseth, who could rely on his past champion’s provisional, and Edwards. That move could have hurt Kenseth because his championship in 2003 could be trumped by others who have won championships since then. Under the new Chase rules, missing an early season race wouldn’t ruin an entire season, as it would have in the past, because a driver only needs to win one race and attempt to start the rest to earn a berth in the Chase for the Sprint Cup.

a negative trend that continued all season. Off the track, his girlfriend, Sherry Pollex, battled cancer all year. “That is the most fun I have had in a race car in a long, long After a winless 2014 season, Matt Kenseth found time,” he said. “After himself in Victory Lane after last Saturday’s Sprint the year we Unlimited exhibition race. had last year and then everything that I have been through with Sherry, it feels good to come here and run like that.” Truex, racing for the first time with Cole Pearn as his crew chief, appeared to have the fastest car at the end, but was without a drafting partner, as the driver behind him was Carl Edwards, whose allegiance was to his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate, Kenseth. “[Edwards] wasn’t going to give me the push down the [backstretch] that I needed to get the momentum to get around Kenseth,” Truex said.

I would put Martinsville probably higher on the list.” That’s not surprising. Gordon has eight career victories on the half-mile oval at Martinsville, more than at any other track on the circuit.

Five county squads advance BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorintian.com

There was just one casualty on “put out” night. With the Biggersville girls and Corinth boys earning first-round byes after winning their respective divisions, six squads took the court Tuesday in a win-andadvance game. • At Booneville High School, the five-time defending Division 1-1A champion Lions advanced with a 79-62 win over Wheeler in the 4/5 game. Devonte Spears had a career-high, pouring in 47 points -- including 25 of the

Lions’ 35 points in the first half. Spears connected on 17 field goals -- all inside the arc -- and was 13-of-18 from the line. Bradley Davis followed with 16 as BHS ran its mark to 11-16 while earning a berth in next week’s North Half Tournament. • At the 1-3A Tournament at Northeast Mississippi Community College, Kossuth moved into the semifinal round in both brackets and earned a berth in next week’s North Half Tournament. The Lady Aggies moved to 19-10 with a 51-33 win in the third of four games.

The Aggies got a game-high 25 points from Rick Hodum as Kossuth eliminated Booneville 79-53 in the final game. All five KHS (16-12) starters scored in double figures, followed by Kennedy Dye (15), Nik Wilcher (13), Beau Lee (11) and Matthew Stewart (10). In the two early games, the Alcorn Central boys were the lone loser on the night, falling 71-48 to third-seeded Mooreville. Central ended its season at 10-18. It what proved to be a doubleheader, Lady Bears followed with a 58-49 win over the Lady Troopers as the

third-seeded club improved to 15-12. • At the Davis Event Center on the campus of Itawamba Community College, the Corinth girls moved to the semifinals with a 61-35 decision over Tishomingo County. Teosha Boyd tallied a game-high 11 points and Aundrea Adams had 10 as Corinth improved to 15-12. • In Division 1-2A action, the Walnut boys advanced with a 66-49 win over Mantachie. Manse Pulliam had 19 points to lead the way for the 12-14 Wildcats.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Devin Booker had 18 points and seven rebounds as No. 1 Kentucky picked up its defense in the second half and extended the best start in school history Tuesday night with a 66-48 victory over Tennessee. Kentucky is 26-0 for the first

time, though the Wildcats finished the 1953-54 season with a 25-0 mark. It also matches the best start for a team coached by John Calipari, who won his first 26 games at Massachusetts in 1995-96 and was 26-0 at Memphis in 2007-08. Andrew Harrison scored 14 points and Trey Lyles added

10 for Kentucky (13-0 SEC). Kevin Punter scored 14 and Josh Richardson had 10 for Tennessee (14-11, 6-7). After shooting 54.2 percent (13 of 24) in the first half, Tennessee shot just 25 percent (8 of 32) in the second. The Volunteers went 2 for 17 from 3-point range and 4 of 10 on

free throws. Tennessee coach Donnie Tyndall called Kentucky “arguably the best team to ever be assembled” this week and said if his team played as poorly as it did in the first half of a 7355 loss to LSU on Saturday, it Please see KENTUCKY | 13

A-Rod gives apology; no explanation The Associated Press

NEW YORK — It appears the only place Alex Rodriguez might detail his drug use is on a witness stand. The ever controversial New York Yankees star decided against holding a news conference ahead of his return to the team following a one-year absence. He issued a vague five-paragraph handwritten apology Tuesday “for the mistakes that led to my sus-

pension” but failed to provide specifics about how and why he resumed using performance-enhancing drugs for at least the second stretch of his celebrated career. Readying to report back to the Yankees following an unprecedented season-long ban for violating baseball’s drug agreement and labor contract, Rodriguez apologized to team officials in person during a meeting at the ballpark

on Feb. 10. They suggested he hold a news conference before the start of spring training this Friday and offered the use of Yankee Stadium. Rodriguez declined. He held an apologetic session with reporters in 2009 at the team’s facility in Tampa, Florida, after he admitted using banned PEDs while with Texas from 2001-03. That was before Major League Baseball had a drug agree-

ment with penalties. “The only thing I ask from this group today and the American people is to judge me from this day forward,” he said then. But he apparently did not want to face questions from media about his latest involvement with PEDs — although he could be required to testify in federal court if his Please see A-ROD | 13

Cowboys consider franchise tag for Bryant The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — The Dallas Cowboys are still trying to come up with the perfect pitch to Dez Bryant. With free agency looming and a March 2 deadline to use their franchise tag, the Cowboys are still debating whether to put the tag on Bryant, their top receiver, even as they try to work out a long-term deal. They still hope to keep running back DeMarco Murray, and they’re hoping to find enough cap room to do both. “We’re usually able to accomplish what we need to accomplish and the question just becomes strategy,” Cowboys

executive vice president Stephen Jones told a small group of reporters Tuesday. “Do you want to push money out in order to have money now? We’ll just have to make good, sound decisions.” Dallas’ most pressing decision involves Bryant, who can become an unrestricted free agent in three weeks. Last season, the 26-year-old receiver had 88 catches, 1,320 yards and a league-high 16 TD receptions. The presumption has been that if the NFC East champs can’t work out a long-term deal with Bryant, they will use the one-year tag. In that case,

Bryant would likely get $12 to $13 million — a hefty price tag for a team that is trying to fit a high-priced quarterback, a top receiver and the NFL’s leading rusher under a salary cap projected to come in at about $140 million. Stephen Jones said the Cowboys have been talking to Bryant’s agent, Tom Condon. They plan to meet in Indianapolis during this week’s NFL’s annual scouting combine. If the sides can work out a more cap-friendly deal, the Cowboys could finally hit the trifecta — keeping Bryant, Murray and Tony Romo to-

gether for several more seasons. But Bryant is already starting to show signs of frustration. “I wish They felt the same way but it’s cool,” Bryant posted Tuesday on Twitter, responding to a fan who wrote he loved the way Bryant was dedicated to the Cowboys. Either way, Dallas is committed to keeping Bryant. And if the Cowboys do use the tag, Jones said he expects Bryant “will be a pro and he’ll play.” “If we don’t get a deal, it just shows how much we’re comPlease see BRYANT | 13

cousin, Yuri Sucart, and former University of Miami pitching coach Lazaro Collazo go to trial on charges they committed crimes in their involvement with the Biogenesis of America drug clinic. Rodriguez admitted in court documents he used PEDs. ESPN The Magazine said it planned to release an interview Wednesday in which Rodriguez said he thinks Bosch gave him a placebo. Rodriguez also said he considered retirement early in his suspension, is in therapy and secretly visits colleges. He told ESPN he took a marketing class during his suspension and wants to complete his education. Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig suspended the three-time AL MVP for 211 games in August 2013, citing conduct from 2010-12 uncovered during MLB’s investigation of Biogenesis, which was based in Coral Gables, Florida, not far from Rodriguez’s home. Arbitrator Fredric Horowitz reduced the penalty to the 2014 season, finding “clear and

convincing evidence” Rodriguez used three banned substances and twice tried to obstruct baseball’s drug investigation. Hoping to overcome the suspension and a pair of hip surgeries, Rodriguez is due to report to the Yankees on Feb. 25 and start workouts the following day. He has not played a full season since 2007. Rodriguez addressed his statement “to the fans” and said “I take full responsibility for the mistakes that led to my suspension for the 2014 season” without explaining what those mistakes were. “I regret that my actions made the situation worse than it needed to be,” he wrote in legible blue script. “To Major League Baseball, the Yankees, the Steinbrenner family, the players’ association and you, the fans, I can only say I’m sorry.” Rodriguez said “I accept the fact that many of you will not believe my apology or anything that I say at this point. I understand why, and that’s on me.”

mitted to him,” Jones said. “We don’t want to expose him.” The other decisions may have to wait. Murray, too, can become an unrestricted free agent and the Cowboys are scrambling to do their homework before making a decision. “Everything comes into play. What backs historically do. How many backs go on and play well after they’re 27? Which ones consistently do it from start to finish?” Jones said. “Those are the things you have to weigh.” The other option would be freeing up cap space by redoing other contracts, such as Romo’s big deal, or cutting high-priced veterans. “I’m not going to get into any detail like that right now,” Jones said before acknowledging that he believes Romo still has a lot of football left in him. “We know what our options are and we’re

just, as we move forward, we’ll get more definitive as to who we’re going to be working with and we’ll make those decisions.” Notes: Dallas announced Tuesday that it had signed offensive linemen Ronald Leary and Darrion Weems. Both were exclusive free agents. ... Jones said he believes the Cowboys will come in with the requisite four-year average toward the salary cap and will avoid being penalized for underspending. ... Jones also is on the competition committee, which had a preliminary meeting Tuesday, but like others in the room declined to say what had been discussed. One thing he said had not come up yet was the definition of a catch. The Cowboys’ season came to an end last month when Bryant appeared to catch a pass from Romo. The ball came loose when he hit the ground and the play was reversed to an incompletion following a replay challenge.

During the highest temperatures of summer, you may need to water containers and hanging baskets again in the afternoon. This is where having a drip irrigation system is very useful. Supertunias are heavy feeders, so apply a controlled-release fertilizer at planting. For the best growth and flower production, feed these plants on a regular basis.

Reader asks about organ donation WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: Please help me bring awareness and education about organ donation. There are thousands of people waiting for a transplant and hundreds of others awaiting replacement of a previously transplanted organ. Many organ recipients outlive the longevity of their transplant. Please tell your readers that living organ donors offer better longevity than organs from a cadaver donor. Finding donors promptly is also less expensive and much better health-wise. In recent years, a great deal has changed with transplants for both the recipient and living donors; i.e. kidney transplants are now being done laparoscopically, and recuperation for the donor now averages only two weeks. Potential recipients use every resource available, but don’t always find a match. Please ask your readers to help those in need. Sadly, our family knows the importance of this from personal experience. -- Lawrence, Kan. Dear Lawrence: So many people are on waiting lists for organs, we hope our readers will consider living organ donation. People may not realize that they can donate one of their two kidneys, or even one of two lobes of their liver. They also can do-

Annie’s Mailbox nate part of a lung, the pancreas or the intestines because the remaining portions stay fully functional. And finally, living donors can donate skin, bone, blood, marrow, blood stem cells and umbilical cord blood after childbirth and certain surgical procedures, such as hip or knee replacement. Organ donors are NOT charged, although sometimes there are other costs, such as travel expenses. For more information on organ donation, check out organdonor.gov. For financial assistance, contact livingdonorassistance.org. Dear Annie: When I was growing up, women’s magazines used to give advice on how to avoid being harmed by predatory men. Now they give advice on ways to please a man. There’s an old saying, “Why buy the cow if you can get the milk for free?” If women want to marry a good man and raise a family, they shouldn’t have sex until after marriage. When my daughter was

16, she asked whether it was OK to sleep with a man if he says he loves you. I said no, he would lose respect for her. She didn’t listen. Now she is living with a man who says she is his “partner.” They just had a child. It turns out he is married to another woman, and they have a toddler. My daughter has fallen for the old line that he’ll marry her once his wife divorces him. Women should ask themselves what they get out of hooking up and shacking up. Nothing. If you want the best from a man, don’t settle for a lowclass bum who won’t commit. -- A Wiser Gramma Who Knows Men Dear Gramma: Your opinions have merit, but they are based on the ideas that all men lie to get women to sleep with them, and that women use sex as a lure for marriage. This isn’t necessarily true. Young women can enjoy sex as much as men do and don’t want to hold off until marriage, which nowadays may not happen until a woman is in her 30s, if it happens at all. But you are absolutely right that if a woman wants a legal commitment, she should not be shacking up with a married man. And vice versa.
