Shooting shows need for officer training BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Mississippi averages a shooting in which a police officer is involved about every 12 days, but routine officer training does little to prepare officers for those situations. Law enforcement officers numbering about 130 converged on Corinth Thursday for an eight-hour session on officer-involved shootings hosted by the Northeast Mississippi Law Enforcement Training Center. “Most cops are trained in how to use their gun. Most cops are not trained in what’s going to happen during and after the shooting,” said Tim Rutledge, founder of the Law Enforcement Alliance for Peer Support
A large crowd of law enforcement personnel attended a session on officer-involved shootings at Northeast at Corinth on Thursday. (LEAPS). “We’re doing that training today.” The shooting less than a week
ago at Iuka’s Walmart store underscores the need for such training, he said. Officers fatally
shot a man who opened fire inside the store. The officers were not injured.
“The world is becoming more violent,” said Rutledge, “and we need to train our cops what to do.” A retired Bureau of Narcotics officer, he discussed issues such as the legalities involved, the normal human reactions to high-stress events such as a shooting, public sentiment, and returning to duty, among other aspects of a shooting situation. “A law enforcement officer is always in a combat zone,” said Training Center Director Bowen Johnson. “He doesn’t rotate in or out. Every time he walks out that door in the morning and tells his wife and children goodbye, he doesn’t know Please see TRAINING | 2A
2nd round: Wintry mix coming today BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
The week’s second round of winter weather will hit the Crossroads area today. The National Weather Service in Memphis issued a Winter Weather Advisory for today from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Snow, sleet and ice accumulation is expected with ice accumulation at less than one tenth inch. Chance of precipitation is 90 percent. “We think there will be significantly more winter precipitation north of the Tennessee line,” said Meteorologist Zach Maye. “In North Mississippi, the precipitation will start out as sleet and freezing rain and turn into just rain by the afternoon hours.” A Winter Storm Watch was in
effect for the Crossroads area, but was canceled late Thursday afternoon. Maye said the watch was removed because the atmosphere is expected to warm up faster furthered south. The high is expected to reach 32 degrees today. A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of sleet and freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Drivers should be prepared for slippery roads and limited visibilities. “We believe North Mississippi will receive less winter precipitation then the area received during the Monday storm,” added Maye. The week started with a winter storm that brought cold Please see WEATHER | 2A

School district seeks sewer grant Senior plans budgeting, BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn School District approved a resolution recently that allows the City of Farmington to research grants to possibility connect Alcorn Central schools to Farmington sewers. The resolution states if a 100 percent grant to fund the construction and installation of the connection is not secured by the city, then the school district is not obligated to follow through with the project. “The wording of the resolution also includes the option to move forward on the project depending on the additional cost or difference between what the grant covers and what the school district would have to cover,” said district attorney Arch Bullard. “If the board decides that it is not financially fissile than the resolution does not bind the broad to anything.” Board members James Voyles and Russ Nash introduced the idea to other board members during the January meeting. The two had previously talked with Farmington Mayor Dale Fortenberry about securing a grant that could fully fund the sewer connection costs. The
meeting marks the third time in the last 12 years that the City of Farmington has attempted to enter into an agreement to connect the Alcorn Central school campus to the Farmington Water Department’s sewer. “If we can make this work financially, we would shutdown and cover up the current water treatment plant and our sewage would then go through Farmington” Nash said. “We need to make this happen.” The school also faces the expiration of their Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality license in 2016, which according to Voyles could force the school to close or move their onsite water treatment plant. “The certificate renewal is very serious from my understanding,” said Voyles. “Being able to hook up to a city sewer is a great opportunity for us at this time.” Wilbanks disagrees. “I am not against the connection if we can get it fully funded, but I want the facts to be known,” he said. “I have talked to the people who service our sewers and they tell me our MDEQ license is not in jeopardy.” Wilbanks said he feels the
board wants to connect to the sewer only because of the bad smell. The water treatment plant, which serves the three schools on the campus, is located near the Alcorn Central football field. At the January meeting Voyles discussed the sewer smell which covers most of campus on a daily basis and effects the taste of concession food during football games. “All we’re talking about is a smell — nothing hazardous. Our current system is fine and the MDEQ license is not in danger and that’s the facts,” added Wilbanks. Volyes said he still believes MDEQ would prefer the school district hook up to a city run sewer system if the opportunity was available. Voyles, Nash and board president Mary Coleman voted to approve the resolution, while Wilbanks abstained. Board member Carroll Morton was not present. The resolution was approved with a 3-2 vote. On behalf of the school and the city, Fortenberry will now begin researching and applying for grants for the project.

menu planning seminar BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
BIGGERSVILLE — A high school senior wants to see people eating healthy. Anna Michael is doing her part by putting together a budgeting and menu planning workshop at no cost. “Anna’s Vision — Healthy Meals on a Budget” is ready to get cooking Saturday at Biggersville First Baptist Church. The workshop gets started at 4 p.m. in the fellowship hall with Baptist Memorial Hospital-Booneville Marketing Director Sergio Warren being the guest speaker. Biggersville First Baptist Church is located at 443 County Road 514. “The workshop will teach people how to budget and plan so they can provide healthy meals for the family,” said Anna’s mother and Girl Scout leader Tina Michael. “I am hoping once we show them how to do it, they can do it for themselves,” added Anna. “I know of families who have had a rough time in the past.”
A free meal of spaghetti or meatless spaghetti along with corn on the cob, green beans, bread, fresh fruit and drink is also included in the event. Saturday’s event is the first of four scheduled to be done by Anna Michael as she works toward her Gold Award in Girl Scouts. “Anna’s Vision” is also set to be done in April, July and October of this year. “I really hope I can do it again next year,” said Anna. “If I can’t, I hope someone else steps up to do it.” “Anna is hoping it grows each time,” added Tina of her daughter and Biggersville High School senior. Tina stressed the community has been behind Anna in the effort reach people to eat healthy. “So many kids come to school hungry because they aren’t eating the right thing,” said Tina. “Just providing a meal doesn’t solve the problem that’s why a budget workshop is also being provided.” Please see WORKSHOP | 2A

how important it is for us to get training on how to deal with it, how to prepare for it, ” he said. “What a lot of people don ’t understand is when an ofcer is involved in a shooting, how it affects that ofcer. He has to mentally prepare himself

Northeast plans ‘Evening of Horton Foote’
Today in History Today is Friday, Feb. 20, the 51st day of 2015. There are 314 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 20, 1905, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, upheld, 7-2, compulsory vaccination laws intended to protect the public’s health. (The case involved a Swedish immigrant, Henning Jacobson, who refused to pay a $5 fine for refusing to be vaccinated against smallpox; the Court upheld the right of states to penalize individuals who rejected vaccinations, but did not say they could be forcibly vaccinated.)
On this date: In 1862, William Wallace Lincoln, the 11-yearold son of President Abraham Lincoln and first lady Mary Todd Lincoln, died at the White House, apparently of typhoid fever. In 1944, during World War II, U.S. strategic bombers began raiding German aircraft manufacturing centers in a series of attacks that became known as “Big Week.” In 1962, astronaut John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth as he flew aboard Project Mercury’s Friendship 7 spacecraft. In 1971, the National Emergency Warning Center in Colorado erroneously ordered U.S. radio and TV stations off the air; some stations heeded the alert, which was not lifted for about 40 minutes. In 1987, a bomb left by Unabomber Ted Kaczynski exploded behind a computer store in Salt Lake City, seriously injuring store owner Gary Wright. Soviet authorities released Jewish activist Josef Begun. In 2003, a fire sparked by pyrotechnics broke out during a concert by the group Great White at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island, killing 100 people and injuring about 200 others.
BOONEVILLE — In an effort to provide quality entertainment to the Northeast campus and surrounding communities, Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Theatre Department will present a pair of short, family-oriented plays. Northeast’s Theatre Department will present “An Evening of Horton Foote: A Young Lady of Property” and “The Dancers” on Feb. 26, Feb. 28, and March 1 in Hines Hall Auditorium on the Booneville campus. For the Feb. 26 and 28 shows, the curtain rises at 7 p.m., while the Sunday, March 1, matinee will start at 2 p.m. Admission is $5 for the general public but free for Northeast faculty, staff and students with a current college ID. “I hope to not only provide the community with quality entertainment,” said Northeast theatre director Christopher Schager, “but to also educate our students in the theatre arts.” During its “An Evening of Horton Foote: A Young Lady of Property” and “The Dancers,” Northeast
“ ... both of these familyoriented plays are wonderfully written and create a real sense of the small town urgencies and preoccupations of somewhat simpler times … ” Christopher Schager Northeast theatre director
theatre examines small town, family life in 1925 Harrison, Texas, yet both of these short plays can easily represent America in its pre-Depression years as well. “Written in 1955, both of these family-oriented plays are wonderfully written and create a real sense of the small town urgencies and preoccupations of somewhat simpler times … ” said Schager. In “A Young Lady of Property,” 15-year-old Wilma believes that she’s inherited a house from her deceased mother, but her father Lester has other ideas. He wishes to sell the home and start a new life with his fianceé, Ms.
Leighton. While Lester wants to sell the home, Wilma becomes anxious and desperate because in the absence of a real family, the home has become little more than a property to the community at large. For Wilma, however, the house has become a home that is her one, true possession… it makes her “a young lady of property.” With the help of her Aunt Gertrude, Wilma attempts to reclaim what was is rightfully hers and mend what remains of her broken family. In “The Dancers,” 20-year-old Horace finds true love in one of the most unique places – a soda fountain … but not without some trials and

on Fridays to prepare for a historically significant, entertaining and familyfriendly production,” Schager said. “We hope you will plan to attend on one or more of our evenings.” In producing, An Evening of Horton Foote, Schager invited lay minister Shelia Przesmicki of the Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Booneville to play the role of Aunt Gert in “A Young Lady of Property.” Members of the crew for “An Evening of Horton Foote: A Young Lady of Property” and “The Dancers” include Mentie Martin of Corinth, William Pleasant of Memphis, Tenn., Marleah Morris of Booneville, Angelica Hernander of Walnut, Justice Strickland of Ashland, Hannah Byrom of Glen, Lashon Talley of Booneville, Brandon Strickland of Corinth, Aaron Dean of Corinth, Sydney Martin of Booneville, Kameron Talley of Tishomingo County, Ryan Simpson of DeSoto County, Daniel Brown of Memphis, Tenn., and Marshall Grooms of Corinth.
Ahmad Fryar, 34, of Ripley pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy and two counts of false pretense today before Tippah County Circuit Court Judge Kelly Luther. Fryar was sentenced to 15 years, 10 years suspended with five
years to serve and five years of post-release supervision. He was also ordered to pay full restitution to the victim, $1,000 to the Mississippi Crime Victims’ Compensation fund and must offer truthful testimony against two other
co-defendants who are awaiting prosecution. Fryar admitted to taking over $5,000 in the scheme. The victim believed she was helping the defendants after they contacted her and asked her for money that they would repay
once a big lawsuit they pretended to be involved in was settled. The case was investigated by Jamie Thompson and prosecuted by Assistant Attorney General Stan Alexander of the Attorney General’s Public Integrity Division.

tribulations along the way. While visiting his sister Inez, Horace is set up on a date with Emily Crews, the prettiest and most popular girl in town. After some persistent persuasion from his sister, he heads off on his date with young Emily. Unbeknownst to Horace, Emily is being forced to go to the dance by her own mother, and when Horace finds out the duplicity of the older women setting him up, he leaves Emily’s house humiliated. When Horace meets young Mary Catherine in the local soda shop, he finds that she too “lacks confidence” and their social awkwardness begins to bring them together. As the two are more and more drawn to each other, their friendship grows, as the two scheming women’s relationship implodes. Finally, Horace and Mary Catherine have found each other, the duo relying on their mutual liking and respect. “The cast and crew have been working diligently for months … even

Volatility in GOP race BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Columnists
The Republican primary emerging for the 2016 presidential nomination is unusual for its extreme sensitivity to events and the slightest efforts by candidates to promote their causes. All Scott Walker had to do to vault to the top of the polls was make some noises in Wisconsin, put out stories that he was running, and hype a poll in neighboring Iowa showing him doing well. Before Walker, the murmurs of Ben Carson and some good Fox News appearances vaulted him into the top tier. Rand Paul is perpetually moving up and down based on his latest positioning on key issues. Marco Rubio sank down when people thought he might not run if Bush ran but then shot back up during his book tour. In the distant past – 2008 – candidates rose or fell based on how they did in the early primaries. More recently, in the 2012 GOP primary, they to moved up or down based on how they did in debates. Michele Bachmann was the first to soar and then fade. Herman Cain was next. Rick Perry had his day. And then the contest settled down into the Romney vs. Gingrich vs. Santorum race into which it eventually evolved. Now, the same volatility is manifesting itself without any primaries or even any debates. A presence on the Internet and on cable news is all it takes to rock the seismometer. Why the sensitivity to events? Part of the reason is the desperation most Republicans and Independents feel to be rid of Barack Obama. 2016 cannot come soon enough, and the voters feel better when they are contemplating the terms of Obama’s exit rather than the mayhem he continues to commit as president. There is also a real feeling among primary voters that they are as much an auditioning committee as a focus group. Sure the positions the candidates take matters to each of them, but agreeing with a potential nominee is a lot less important than figuring out whether or not he can win. Voters have a new willingness to compromise on their ideology to find a winner. And, the field of GOP candidates is quite good. The Party has a strong bench. Bush, Walker, Christie, Jindal, Perry and Kasich have fine records as governors while Paul, Cruz and Rubio have certainly distinguished themselves as Senators – even though they are freshmen. So voters can feel free to switch allegiances easily. Except for Jeb Bush’s apostasy on amnesty and Common Core Standards and Rand Paul’s opposition to tough measures against Iran, there isn’t much to choose from among the candidates on the issues. We can distinguish between the candidates based on personality, but not on ideology. But the main reason of the early volatility is that everybody who votes in the Republican primary watches Fox News and follows the same Internet websites. With the Internet keeping everybody in the race 24/7, a candidate can easily make a big splash and move to the forefront. But ... don’t take it too seriously this early.

A verse to share “Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.” — 2 Samuel 7:22
Energy giant gets comeuppance OXFORD — The little guy has won a slobber-knocker in Mississippi. Whether it’s good policy or not remains to be seen, but five members of the Mississippi Supreme Court say the state Public Service Commission ran roughshod over customers — and Mississippi Power Company has to give back lots of money. “An analysis of these proceedings leads to the inescapable conviction that the commission failed to fulfill its duties and obligations pursuant to statutory directives and our existing law and that the overwhelming majority of 186,000 ratepayers was not accorded due process from the beginning.” So wrote Justice Michael Randolph in the majority opinion for the court, which divided 5-4 on the decision made public last week. Not a lot of wiggle room. Here’s the background: ■ Private utilities may be monopolies only because that works best for the public. A company is granted exclusive right to sell electricity, water or sewer services in an area in order to promote efficiency. In Mississippi, three commissioners are elected to oversee utilities. They have two jobs: (1) Assure the utility remains reasonably profitable so the people will continue to receive essential services, and (2) Block any attempt to
overcharge or gouge. ■ What had been the most expensive utility construction Charlie project in Mitchell Mississippi was Grand Columnist Gulf Nuclear Station. It took about a dozen years before the plant sold its first watt of electricity in 1985. ■ A large portion of Grand Gulf’s construction debt was bank interest on the billions borrowed for construction. Mississippi did not authorize “front-loading” capital outlays. The cost of the plant could only be recovered once it was in service. ■ In 2005, Grand Gulf got a federal permit to add another generating unit. It has since shelved that idea, but in 2008, the Legislature passed the Base Load Act, which allowed major utilities to front-load some capital costs. The PSC and its statutorily powerful staff were to told to manage this. ■ In 2010, Mississippi Power and South Mississippi Electric Power Association, which serve large areas of lower Mississippi, started the Kemper County Project, an advanced lignite-burning coal gasification plant that was to cost $2.2 billion and is now expected to cost $6.1 billion by the time it
can start selling “juice” next year. ■ It made good accounting sense to go to the PSC for permission to require customers to start paying for the plant, which was done. A pay-some-now approach would keep customers from having to pay-all-later as Grand Gulf customers have been doing for 30 years. But it didn’t sell well to the man on the street, including one in particular, Thomas A. Blanton, who asserted his rights as a customer were ignored. And he won. The two members of the PSC who approved 15 percent and 3 percent rate increases for Mississippi power in 2013 and 2014 did not follow the law, the court said. (Northern District Commissioner Brandon Presley objected to what his colleagues were doing, but was outvoted.) Be clear: The Supreme Court did not find the Base Load Act unconstitutional or anything. The majority just said the PSC was too cozy in accommodating the utility while it collected about $278 million in “advances” from customers. The PSC had failed in more than one way to make a record showing the increases they approved were “prudent.” The Legislature said the commissioners needed to be open and above board about everything. They weren’t.
The dissenters, including Chief Justice Bill Waller, offered a Scarlet O’Haratype, “Oh, fiddle dee dee,” dissent. Blanton was just one person, after all, and his right to be heard wasn’t trampled, they said. Do the math and it appears the average “refund” would be about $1,500. That could be totally wrong, though. Regardless, it’s too soon for any customers to go stand by their mailboxes and wait for the checks. While the court says there’s no cure for what’s been done, it’s possible something other than a full refund will pass muster. The majority opinion, in sum, tells the PSC to read the law and do what it says. But even if there’s no windfall and not a cent of ratepayers’ money is returned, there is cause for pause. The “big dogs” usually get their way in Mississippi just as they do in Washington, D.C. People are often forgotten after election day. Not so in this case. By one vote, the justices said the PSC “did not balance the ratepayers’ interests with those of the utility, as our law requires.” That’s not common. And should not pass without notice.

The GOP angel of death The Grim Reaper is sharpening his scythe. With each rasp of the political whetstone, another Republican presidential candidate will be reduced to dust. True, the first caucuses and primaries are still a year away. But there are far too many Republicans dipping their toes into the water. There are at least two dozen, which means at least 240 toes. There is no way the media have the money to cover 24 candidates. Times are tough. The 2016 presidential campaign may be the first one that has more candidates running than profitable media companies covering them. And then there are the debates. How do you fit 24 candidates onstage? And how much time would each debate take? A little over three weeks ago, about 1,000 Republicans gathered in Des Moines, Iowa, at a political cattle call. A cattle call is like a straw vote but without the vote. Candidates prefer them because there is no final tally to humiliate them. Instead, the candidates can only humiliate themselves. Which is what happened in Des Moines, where 24 candidates pounded out 10 hours of speeches without a

rest break for the audience. Ten hours! And what purpose did it serve? It got rid of Roger Sarah Palin. Simon On the Friday night before Columnist the event, she told a reporter she was “seriously interested” in running for president. But the next day, she gave a speech of such rambling incoherence and such disjointed babbling that it sounded as if she were being simultaneously translated into a language from another galaxy. Even her supporters were baffled. In any case, she has now gone from a hopeless candidate to a laughably hopeless candidate. The media will never take her seriously again. The Grim Reaper has done his job. But the big bloodletting will come this summer in Iowa, when its famous straw poll will be held. The term “straw poll” comes from the British polymath John Selden (1584-1654), who wrote, “Take a straw and throw it up into the Air — you may see by that which way the Wind is.”
The governor of Iowa, a Republican, wanted to end the straw poll this year, ostensibly because it takes attention away from Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses. But the real reason is probably that the candidates are tired of wasting money on the straw poll. That’s because the Iowa straw poll is a delightful fraud in which candidates spend millions of dollars buying up blocks of tickets and then handing them out to hapless Iowans who are unlucky enough to cross their paths. Hundreds of reporters cover the event, even though they inevitably whine about how “meaningless” it is because the winner of the straw poll almost never becomes president. (The only straw poll winner to get to the White House was George W. Bush, who won the straw poll in 1999 with 31 percent of the vote.) What the media fail to appreciate, however, is that the straw poll is important because it creates losers. It is the Republican Angel of Death. It can be a one-way ticket to oblivion. After the most recent straw poll in 2011, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty came in third and found that so humiliating

he dropped out of the race the next day. In 2007, former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson came in sixth and dropped out. And then there was 1999, when Pat Buchanan wandered around beforehand, talking to reporters and saying ebulliently of the straw poll, “I think it’s going to kill off several people!” It did. Including Pat Buchanan, who came in fifth and was so furious that he resigned from not only the race but also the Republican Party. And I ask you: How can you desire anything more from an event than getting rid of Pat Buchanan? Fortunately, the Iowa Republican Party has overruled the wishes of the governor and recently announced it is going ahead with the straw poll this year. The Democrats? Democrats forbid straw polls because the polls are beneath their dignity. And when you are beneath the dignity of a Democrat, you are really in trouble.

Recruiter convicted in armory shooting MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A jury on Thursday convicted a Tennessee National Guard recruiter who opened fire inside an armory and wounded three people, rejecting his claim that he was trying to kill himself and started firing wildly when a soldier grabbed him from behind. Authorities said Amos Patton was angry after he learned he was being removed from his job because a female soldier had accused him of sexual assault. He pulled a gun from a fanny pack and began shooting on Oct. 24, 2013, wounding three of his superiors. Patton, 43, was found guilty of nine charges, including four counts of assault with a firearm with intent to commit murder. He faces at least 20 years in prison when he is sentenced May 28. Patton, who didn’t testify, showed no reaction when the verdict was read. The jury deliberated for slightly more than two hours.
Expert says Routh suffered delusions STEPHENVILLE, Texas — A former Marine charged in the shooting deaths of “American Sniper” author Chris Kyle and another man exhibited symptoms of psychosis in the weeks leading up to the slayings, a forensic psychiatrist testified Thursday. Dr. Mitchell H. Dunn, testifying as a defense witness, said Eddie Ray Routh was in a psychotic state when Kyle, a famed Navy SEAL sniper, and his friend, Chad Littlefield, were killed on Feb. 2, 2013, The Dallas Morning News reported. Dunn said Routh suffers from schizophrenia. The trial has drawn intense interest, partly because of an Oscar-
nominated film based on Kyle’s memoir. Routh, 27, has pleaded not guilty to capital murder, and his attorneys are mounting an insanity defense. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty, so he faces life without parole in prison if convicted. About a week before the slayings, Routh had been released from the hospital after having a psychotic episode. Dunn said that after Routh returned to work, he thought two of his co-workers were cannibals who were going to harm him.
Obama campaigns for Emanuel CHICAGO — Officially, President Barack Obama came home to Chicago on Thursday to designate a new national monument. But you’d be forgiven for mistaking the visit for a campaign event for Mayor Rahm Emanuel. Obama’s visit to the area near the Pullman National Monument on the city’s South Side put a spotlight on Emanuel, who served as Obama’s first-term chief of staff and now faces re-election as mayor of Obama’s hometown. To avoid a runoff in Tuesday’s vote, he needs strong backing from AfricanAmerican voters — one of the only groups still reliably supportive of the president. “Rahm hasn’t just fought for a national park in Pullman, he’s fought for new jobs and new opportunities for Pullman and for every Chicagoan in every neighborhood,” Obama told a packed crowd in a school gymnasium near the historic Pullman site, where cheers and shrieks approached pop-star levels as Obama was announced onstage. Praising the notoriously blunt mayor for his smarts, toughness and judgment, Obama said he couldn’t be

prouder of his former aide. He said Emanuel cares deeply about the city’s children and has been willing to make “really hard decisions” on Chicago’s behalf, an implicit rebuke of many minority residents unhappy with persistent violence and school closings since Emanuel took office.
Leak: NSA helped steal phone codes WASHINGTON — Britain’s electronic spying agency, in cooperation with the U.S. National Security Agency, hacked into the networks of a Dutch company to steal codes that allow both governments to seamlessly eavesdrop on mobile phones worldwide, according to the documents given to journalists by Edward Snowden. A story about the documents posted Thursday on the website The Intercept offered no details on how the intelligence agencies employed the eavesdropping capability — providing no evidence, for example, that they misused it to spy on people who weren’t valid intelligence targets. But the surreptitious operation against the world’s largest manufacturer of mobile phone data chips is bound to stoke anger around the world. It fuels an impression that the NSA and its British counterpart will do whatever they deem necessary to further their surveillance prowess, even if it means stealing information from law-abiding Western companies. The targeted company, Netherlandsbased Gemalto, makes “subscriber identity modules,” or SIM cards, used in mobile phones and credit cards. One of the company’s three global headquarters is in Austin, Texas. Its clients include AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon and Sprint, The Intercept reported.

District could take troubled schools JACKSON — The State Board of Education is likely to study a new plan to create a separate statewide school district in Mississippi to take over troubled schools and school districts. The move comes a year after the House of Representatives rejected a similar plan over fears of loss of local control and opposition to more charter schools. As envisioned in last year’s legislation, such a district would be able to take over local schools indefinitely. Current takeovers are designed to restore schools to local control after a few years. The board discussed the study Thursday in a work session where frustration over inability to turn around schools boiled over. Board member Wayne Gann of Corinth says Mississippi “has the worst political environment for public education in the state since desegregation days.”
Bryant names four to College Board JACKSON — Gov. Phil Bryant on Thursday named four men to nine-year terms on the College Board that will begin May 9 if they are confirmed by the state Senate. The 12-member board governs Mississippi’s eight public universities, appointing presidents and the higher education commissioner. Former Tupelo Mayor and Tennessee Valley Authority chairman Glenn McCullough Jr. was named to a northern district seat to succeed Aubrey Patterson, also of Tupelo. McCullough, 60, was also a director of the Appalachian Regional Commission from 1993 to 1997. He currently works as a consultant, primarily to the energy industry. McCullough, who ran unsuccessfully for the 1st Congressional District seat held by the
recently deceased Alan Nunnelee, told the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal that he would not seek the seat again. Businessman Thomas Duff of Columbia was named to a southern district seat to succeed Robin Robinson of Laurel. Duff and his brother, Jim, operate Duff Capital Investors, which owns eight companies including T.L. Wallace Construction, truck-tire dealer Southern Tire Mart and wood chip hauler Forest Products Transports, all based in Columbia. They also own Pine Belt Ford and Pine Belt Chevrolet of Purvis, T.K. Stanley Oilfield Services of Waynesboro, Jackson-based refrigerated trucking firm KLLM Transport Services, and Texas-based Frozen Food Express. Delta Council Executive Vice President Chip Morgan of Leland was named to a central district seat to succeed Bob Owens of Jackson. Morgan, 63, has led the Mississippi Delta regional group, which lobbies for farming, transportation, economic development and health care issues, since 1982.
Democrat Slater running for governor JACKSON — Madison attorney Vicki Slater launched her campaign as Democrat for Mississippi governor Thursday,
saying she believes Republican Gov. Phil Bryant has failed by underfunding schools and turning away billions of federal dollars for Medicaid expansion. “The problems of Mississippi are not the fault of Mississippi’s people. They are the fault of Mississippi’s failed leadership,” Slater, 58, said during a news conference at the state Capitol, where she was joined by about 50 relatives, friends and supporters. Slater said she starts the campaign with no cash on hand and she didn’t say how much she thinks a race will cost. “I’m not sure exactly what the dollar amount will be, but we are ready to go,” said Slater, a past president of the Mississippi Association for Justice, a trial attorneys’ group. This is Slater’s first run for public office, and she is the first Democrat in the governor’s race. Feb. 27 is the deadline for candidates to qualify for statewide offices such as governor and for regional offices and legislative seats. Bryant campaign manager Shad White said in a news release Thursday that the governor will run for re-election on accomplishments such as reducing unemployment, filling the state’s financial reserves and enacting changes to the education system.

GOP critical of Obama’s ‘amnesty bonuses’ Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Millions of immigrants benefiting from President Barack Obama’s executive actions could get a windfall from the IRS, a reversal of fortune after years of paying taxes to help fund government 662-594-3011 (LISTINGS FOR FRI. 2/20-2/22/2015) CALL THEATRE OR GO TO MALCO.COM FOR SHOW TIMES

Pre-plan There are three mainwith benefits to advance funeral planning... Here’s what most families say...
programs they were banned from receiving. Armed with new Social Security numbers, many of these immigrants who were living in the U.S. illegally will now be able to claim up to four years’ worth of tax credits designed to benefit the working poor. For big families, that’s a maximum of nearly $24,000, as long as they can document their earnings during those years. Some Republicans are labeling the payments “amnesty bonuses,” one more reason they oppose Obama’s program shielding millions of immigrants from deportation. “I represent hard working, law-biding Texans,”
said Rep. Sam Johnson, a senior Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee. “I think these amnesty rewards, and that’s what they are, need to be stopped.” Advocates argue that many of these immigrants pay taxes, so they should be able to claim the same tax credits as anybody else. Over the past decade, immigrants in the U.S. illegally have paid an estimated $100 billion in Social Security payroll taxes, even though few will ever be able to collect benefits, said Stephen Goss, Social Security’s chief actuary. Obama has issued executive orders shielding about 4 million immi-
grants from deportation. Some were brought to the U.S. as children; others are parents of children who are either U.S. citizens or legal residents. Although a federal judge in South Texas temporarily blocked Obama’s action, the Justice Department is appealing the ruling. The White House contends the executive orders are within the president’s legal authority. Republicans in Congress oppose Obama’s actions and are trying to use a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security to overturn them. Funding for the department, which oversees immigration enforcement, runs out Feb. 27.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Crossroads Magazine - 2015 Medical Guide will be in the Daily Corinthian on Saturday, Feb. 28. You don’t want to miss Staff Writer/Photographer Zack Steen’s feature story about Leonard Pratt, M.D.
Curious wife finds a surprise in husband’s medical records D E A R ABBY: I recently started working at the hospital where my husband receives his Abigail primary care. afterVan Buren One noon, out of curiosity, I Dear Abby accessed his medical records. In his file it was noted that he is high risk for STDs. In fact, he was treated for two different ones some years back. I have been tested for STDs during all my annual physicals, and the results were always negative. I think it’s because we often go for weeks without any sexual contact. What should I do with this information? How do I talk to him about it without letting him know that I’m aware of his medical history? -- CONCERNED IN MASSACHUSETTS DEAR CONCERNED: Unless you claim to be clairvoyant, I don’t see how you can discuss this without admitting you accessed his medical records, which is against the law. Be prepared for him to be irate, because the best defense is a strong offense. You are lucky your husband hasn’t given you an STD. By all means talk with him
about this, if only to find out whether you have sex so infrequently because he’s having relations with other people. Now that you know what has been going on, you have some serious thinking to do about staying in this marriage. DEAR ABBY: I had an abusive boyfriend who, I realized later, had abused his wife and children. After we broke up, my close friend and neighbor asked me if I’d mind if she went out with him. I initially said no, but after thinking about it, I thought how could she? She knew how he had treated me, pushing, shoving and isolating me from my friends. I had words with her about it, and she said she wasn’t there, so she didn’t know if it really happened. What kind of a woman wouldn’t support me? He is over there often, and I live right next door. I am furious with her. Do I have a right to be? -- ALICE IN NEW MEXICO DEAR ALICE: Your friend must be desperate for male companionship, or incredibly naive in failing to recognize that what happened to you (and the man’s former wife) won’t also happen to her. Please don’t waste your time being angry. You are lucky to be rid of your abuser and should be grateful you realized he was one before he caused you physical harm. DEAR ABBY: A woman I know
has a husband who is deployed. I would like to send her a card offering support and love, to tell her how thankful I am for both of their sacrifices in the service of our country. Can you assist with wording and other ideas on how I can be supportive? She lives far away, so this will all be long distance. I don’t want to come across wrong or say something that could offend. I ran across an article the other day on what NOT to say to military wives, and I’m afraid I may have committed a faux pas and don’t want to do it again. -- CIVILIAN IN IOWA DEAR CIVILIAN: If you think you “may” have committed a breach of etiquette, pick up the phone, call the woman and offer an apology. Explain that you read an article about what not to say to military wives, and hope you didn’t offend her. Offer to stay in touch -- if that’s what she would like -- so you can let her know she and her husband are in your thoughts, and let her suggest other ways you might be helpful even though you are geographically distant. 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). You cannot change another person. However, when you offer your assistance without the expectation that the other person will change, you will make a difference. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You refuse to see any situation as tragic or futile and are determined to find whatever advantage might exist. You’ll be successful in this quest, brightening the world for you and the ones you love. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you connect with a person as well as you connect with a certain someone, you can communicate profoundly in total silence. Therefore, don’t worry about what you’ll say. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Fantasies become realities. It happens all the time, so why not for you? Some small occurrence that you wished would happen will materialize in front of your eyes.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Needing validation makes you vulnerable. If there are words you long to hear, then hearing them will only weaken you. Be strong on your own, keep your power, validate yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You wish everyone well -- yes, every single person. That doesn’t mean you have to like them all. When you don’t expect to have a great affinity for most people you have to deal with, the way becomes smoother. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Sometimes you feel so connected to nature and the energy of it around you that you wish you could go live in the woods. Appreciating natural beauty makes you more naturally beautiful. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a protocol, but don’t feel overly obligated to follow it. Pretending won’t work today, but doors will open to you when you show who you really are.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Territorial issues will come up. There’s a lot you can let slide until next week. Everything that irritates you about others can lead you to a better understanding of yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You genuinely want to make the world a better place for people, but your methods don’t always project that intent. Let them know that your actions are aimed at the greater good. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll search for the value in interactions, and it shouldn’t be so hard to find. When you click with people and you are where you belong, the value will be glaringly obvious. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Knowing when you’re in over your head is one thing; admitting it is quite another. With a bit of humility, you’ll attract a teacher who is willing to help you in your quest to make more money.

A year ago, I met a guy I really like, and we’ve been seeing each other seriously since. “Bill” has about a dozen close female friends. He does things like buy them bras and brags that he knows all of their sizes. It hasn’t been a deal breaker because I’ve met most of them, and they really are just friends. However, it bugs me that we’ll make plans to spend a quiet afternoon together, and then one of these girlfriends will text him, and instead of telling me about it or asking me first, Bill will meet up with her (and often her girlfriends), and the next thing you know, I’m stuck sharing him with a bunch of women. Also, with two of these women, he doesn’t tell me he has seen them until after the fact. Last weekend, he got us tickets to a golf game. I knew he wanted to take a male friend, so I gave up my ticket. It turns out, he had four tickets and took the friend along with two girls. He didn’t even offer to tell me he had extra tickets. When Bill is out with these women, he avoids my calls. He buys them drinks and either lies
about it or just doesn’t mention it. He says it’s not cheating if he doesn’t sleep with them. He continues to do this even though I’ve said it seems disrespectful to our relationship. Am I being unreasonable or just gullible? I’m still in great shape and have had many other offers. I’m ready to settle down in a meaningful relationship, and this is like high school. Thoughts? -Tired of Sharing Dear Tired: What are you doing with this immature manchild? Do you seriously think he is going to give up his little harem for you? He is not. It’s time to move on. Dear Annie: My husband and I are close friends with “John and Mary.” John continues to spend money on “toys” he feels he “needs” without Mary’s knowledge. We know this because he shares the information with my husband and shows him the things he has purchased. John has incurred a great deal of debt, and Mary hasn’t a clue because John con-
My husband and I consider honesty to be a cornerstone of our marriage. It makes us sick that John is not being honest with his wife. We’ve already encouraged John to tell Mary the truth, and he hasn’t. So do we tell her, or do we just stay out of their business? -- Honest BFFs Dear Honest: Hard as it may be, you need to stay out of this, and your husband should not be admiring John’s “toys.” You can explain to John that Mary will eventually find out and the consequences will be compounded by his lying. He is better off working with her than against her. She could be a supportive partner. You also can suggest he contact Debtors Anonymous (debtorsanonymous. org) for help.

Rick Hodum and Nik Wilcher at five apiece. Kossuth also held Clark Mills scoreless after he torched them for 33 in a Vikings’ 78-69 win during the regular season. Dye led the Aggies with 17.

Consolation round losers will travel to another division runner-up, while the losers will face off with that division’s champion. ■ In Division 1-1A action at Booneville High School, the Biggersville Lions saw their chance at a sixth straight title end with a 69-61 loss to topseeded Jumpertown. The Lions (11-17) will play
Tremont in today’s consolation match. Jumpertown used a 2111 advantage in the third to break the game open. Prior to that, BHS had led 14-13 and 29-28 at the first two stoppages. Devonte Spears tallied a game-high-tying 19 points for the Lions and Tyran Davis added 15. Biggersville hurt itself from the stripe, making just 14 of its 26 attempts.

Mississippi tops Mississippi State 71-65 BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer
STARKVILLE, Miss. — Stefan Moody scored 29 points, including 24 of those on eight 3-pointers, to lead Mississippi over Mississippi State 71-65 on Thursday night. Ole Miss (18-8, 9-4 Southeastern Conference) won for just the second time in 17 years at Humphrey Coliseum and swept the season series against its in-state rival for the first time since 1998. Moody had his most impressive stretch during an
82-second run late in the second half. The 5-foot-9 junior hit three straight 3-pointers from essentially the same spot on the floor, giving the Rebels some offense when the Bulldogs were trying to make a run. Mississippi State (12-14, 5-8) could never recover. Craig Sword led the Bulldogs with 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting from the field. Gavin Ware scored 13 and Travis Daniels added 12. Mississippi State dominated throughout much of the first
half, leading by 10 at one point before settling for a 32-27 halftime advantage. Travis Daniels led the Bulldogs with 10 points in the opening half, including a vicious one-handed jam over M.J. Rhett that jolted the Humphrey Coliseum crowd to its feet. Ole Miss recovered quickly, stunning the Bulldogs with a 17-4 run to open the second half to take a 44-36 lead. The outburst was punctuated by a deep 3-pointer from Moody, who hit it from several
feet behind the line. But history shows Mississippi State has a huge advantage in Starkville and the Rebels couldn’t pull away, even with Moody dropping 3-pointers from all over the court. Moody shot 8 of 12 from 3-point range and 5 of 6 on free throws. Ole Miss didn’t clinch the win until Moody hit two free throws with 14 seconds left to make it a two-possession game. Ole Miss shot 50 percent from the field (16 of 32) in the second half.
Vikings GM: We ‘expect’ Peterson to be part of team BY DAVE CAMPBELL AP Pro Football Writer
The Minnesota Vikings haven’t wavered with their public stance since the season ended: They want Adrian Peterson to return. In the strongest statement yet, general manager Rick Spielman said Wednesday he expects the star running back to stay with the team after his suspension is lifted. “I think our whole organi-
zation is on that same page,” Spielman told reporters at the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis. Peterson’s last carry came more than five months ago, before the child-abuse case involving his young son became public in his native Texas. “He admitted a mistake. I’m sure he’s doing everything he can to not only make himself better as a football player but also a better person off
the field,” Spielman said. The Vikings initially planned to let Peterson play until the felony charge was resolved in court, following a one-game benching for the home opener. The backlash amid league-wide problems with domestic violence was so swift and severe, though, that they relented while Commissioner Roger Goodell used his authority to place Peterson on paid leave with a special
exemption. Then with six games left in the 2014 season, soon after Peterson reached a plea deal on misdemeanor reckless assault with probation and no jail time, the league suspended him without pay through at least April 15. His appeal was rejected, prompting the NFL Players Association to file a petition in federal court to vacate the arbitrator’s decision.

12A • Friday, February 20, 2015 • Daily Corinthian
Mardi Gras still a festive holiday with many roots Fat Tuesday has come and gone once again. Residing in the Bible Belt, one would think that more celebrations of Mardi Gras, the French phrase for “Fat Tuesday,� would be held, since it’s essentially a Christian holiday. Perhaps the excesses of Mardi Gras, however, are a bit much for the more puritanical. The phrase “Mardi Gras� makes reference to the richer, fatty foods one may eat on the day that precedes Ash Wednesday and the beginning of the Lenten season of abstinence. Mardi Gras is the culmination of the European Carnival season, and the Latin “carne vale� means “farewell to the flesh.� Thus, post-Mardi Gras tradition dictated abstaining from meat and dairy
products. Of course, in days preceding refrigeration, Christians Stacy often gave Jones up meat and dairy The products Dowtowner in order to prepare for the “Great Fast� that accompanied the 40-day season of Lent. Mardi Gras got its European origins in 1582, after Pope Gregory XIII officially listed it on the calendar before Ash Wednesday. It didn’t make it to the U.S. until the 1600s, when the LeMoyne Brothers, Pierre d’Iberville and Jean Baptiste de Bienville, defended France’s claim on Louisiana.
The Carnival celebration has a connection to Christmas, as it really starts with the Epiphany, also called Twelfth Night, twelve days after Christmas. One of its signature delights, the King Cake, also has ties to Christmas, as it traditionally contains a small plastic rendition of a baby, intended to represent baby Jesus, hidden inside. Legend has it that the King Cake, which hearkens back to the 12th century, is baked in a circular fashion in order to represent the routes that the three wise men took in order to visit Jesus and avoid Herod. In the days preceding plastic, a bean or a coin was hidden inside the cake, intended to bring good luck to whomever found it. In the
present, the person who finds the plastic baby is supposed to buy the King Cake for the following year’s Mardi Gras party. Beyond those connections to Christmas, Carnival also takes root, like Christmas, in pagan festivals such as the Roman Saturnalia and Lupercalia. Both of these festivals, like Mardi Gras involved feasting and masquerading. Of course, the best known Mardi Gras celebrations beyond Europe (Nice, France and Cologne, Germany) are held in Rio de Janeiro, New Orleans, and other French-Catholic coastal communities (such as Mobile) in the Southern U.S.—where masked revelers take to the streets and society balls. In New Orleans, the
party tradition began with the French in the late 1600s, following the arrival of the aforementioned explorer Jean Baptiste Le Moyne Sieur de Bienville. His men arrived 60 miles south of New Orleans, naming the spot Pointe du Mardi Gras on the eve of the holiday. Unfortunately, the Spanish government took over the city in the 1700s, banning Mardi Gras celebrations. The ban stayed in place even after the U.S. government took ownership, but revelry resumed in 1827. In 1837, the official colors of Catholic-rooted tradition of Mardi Gras were selected: purple as a symbol of justice, green as a symbol of faith, and gold as a symbol of power. Thus, Mardi Gras brings
together two worlds: the spiritual and the secular. I only wish that the area in which I live had a more vibrant Mardi Gras celebration. At any rate, I still love celebrating it, and next year, I suppose I must supply the king cake, since I found it this year—the night following a Mardi Gras soirĂŠe I hosted. However, the mantra of Mardi Gras is as the French-based citizenry say down in New Orleans: “Laissez les bon temps temps roulez,â€? or “let the good times roll.â€?

Classroom lessons: This time I bought the hot donuts BY JIMMY REED Columnist
In college classrooms, challenges work sometimes, and sometimes they don’t. This time it did. While explaining story line to students in my Creative Writing class, I started with the setting, and told them it must provide time, place, and characters. The kids were bored stiff, as college students always are at eight o’clock in the morning. They weren’t taking notes, and most were staring off in space, daydreaming, so I got their attention by throwing out a challenge.“Duds — that’s what y’all are!� I roared.
“You profess to be inspired by the opportunity to create, but you’re obviously brain dead, and ought to be underground instead, inspiring the cabbages. The only thing inspiring y’all is your eagerness to walk out of this classroom as soon as possible.� After letting that slap in the face wake them up somewhat, I continued. “I’ll bet two boxes of fresh, hot donuts against nothing that you zombies can’t even spell time, place, and characters — much less come up with a story containing them.� That touched raw nerves. The silence was deafening, stares were glowering, and every face was
frowning. Then, one enterprising young man, Daniel, spoke up. “Make it three boxes of donuts and you’re on, Prof.â€? The battle was joined — every student cheered and rallied behind him. I thought ‌ what in the heck have I gotten myself into? In our next session, Daniel instructed me to take a seat and let him demonstrate on the board what they had created. “For the time of our story, we’ve chosen the upcoming Spring Break,â€? Daniel said. “The setting will be the River of Reed’s Regret, and the characters will be the members of this class, including our beloved teacher, who pro-
fesses to be an expert angler. “We’ll have a fishing contest. The winner won’t be determined by the number of fish caught or their total weight; he will be the one who catches the most exotic fish.� I had to admit that the kids were off to a good start, but I was curious as to how they would determine what could be called exotic fish. By coincidence, we had discussed what is known as alliteration in a recent session. Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. The students had used alliteration to name the fish they caught.
With much flourish and a ringing round of applause from his classmates, Daniel began writing on the board the names of students and the fish they caught:Jazmine: Accurate-Aiming Aquatic Attacker; Shalisa: BrownBellied Bottom Bumpe; William: Crimson-Crested Cricket Cruncher; Tyler: Deep-Diving Death Dealer; Jessica: Evil-Eyed Everything Eater; Tommie: Horribly-Horned Human Hunter; Jessi: Iridescent Indigo Insect Ingester; Daniel: Ravenous Raging Reed Ripper; Tanner: Mealy-Mouthed Minnow Muncher; Taylor: Tiger-Toothed Tackle Tangler; Whitnie: Un-
mentionably Ugly Ultraviolet Underwater Undulator; Ashley: Venomous Voracious Vibrating Vindicator; Farrah: Ordinary Orange Omnivorous Obliterator. Then, turning to me, Daniel asked, “Arrogant, aloof, aggressive, apoplectic angler, what did you catch?� I bought the donuts.

Healthful diet report suggests coffee, eggs, no sugary drinks BY MARY CLARE JALONICK Associated Press
WASHINGTON — An extra cup or two of coffee may be OK after all. More eggs, too. But you definitely need to drink less sugary soda. And, as always, don’t forget your vegetables. Recommendations Thursday from a government advisory committee call for an environmentally friendly diet lower in red and processed meats. But the panel would reverse previous guidance on limiting dietary cho-
lesterol. And it says the caffeine in a few cups of coffee could actually be good for you. The committee also is backing off stricter limits on salt, though it says Americans still get much too much. It’s recommending the first real limits on added sugar, saying that’s especially a problem for young people. The Agriculture and Health and Human Services Departments will take those recommendations into account in writing final 2015 dietary guidelines by the end of
the year. The guidelines affect nutritional patterns throughout the country — from federally subsidized school lunches to food package labels to your doctor’s advice. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said “it is by no means over� with the release of the report. The government will take comments on the advice before distilling it — and possibly changing it — into final guidelines for consumers. Even with the changes, the report sticks to the basic message of the previous guidelines in 2010: Eat more fruits and vegetables and whole grains; eat less saturated fats, salt and sugar.
Eggs are okay The report says dietary cholesterol now is “not considered a nutrient of concern for overconsumption.� This follows increasing medical research showing the amount of cholesterol in your bloodstream is more complicated than once thought. The committee says available evidence “shows
no appreciable relationship� between heart disease and how much dietary cholesterol you eat, but it still recommends eating less saturated fat. As in previous years, the report advises limiting saturated fats to 10 percent of total calories. The panel doesn’t give a specific recommendation for how much cholesterol — or eggs — a person may eat.
Watch the added sugar Added sugars should be around 200 calories a day — about the amount in one 16-ounce sugary drink, says the advisory committee, which is made up of doctors and nutritionists. The recommendation is part of a larger push in recent years to help consumers isolate added sugars from naturally occurring ones like those in fruit and milk. Added sugars generally add empty calories to the diet. Americans now get about 13 percent of their calories from added sugar, or 268 calories a day, the committee says. Old-
er children, adolescents and young adults generally take in more. The 10 percent recommended by the committee is “a target within reach,� says Miriam Nelson, a Tufts University professor of nutrition who served on the panel. Sugary drinks should be replaced with water instead of those with low-calorie sweeteners; there’s not enough evidence those drinks can help with weight loss, the committee advises.
A softer approach on salt Sodium adds up quickly. A turkey sandwich and a cup of soup can average about 2,200 milligrams. That’s just under the committee’s recommendation of 2,300 milligrams a day for all people, even those most at risk for heart disease. The 2010 dietary guidelines had recommended those at risk for heart disease limit sodium to 1,500 milligrams. The new report said lowering to that amount can still be helpful for some. But the new advice follows a 2013

An endorsement for coffee The report looks at caffeine for the first time, and says coffee is OK — even good for you. The panel says there is strong evidence that 3 to 5 cups a day can be part of a healthy diet, and there’s consistent evidence that it’s even associated with reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. The advice comes with some caveats — don’t add calories with cream, milk and added sugars. The report also advises against large-size energy drinks that are popular in the marketplace, and it recommends pregnant women limit caffeine to two cups of coffee a day.

report by the Institute of Medicine that said there is no good evidence that eating less than 2,300 milligrams a day of sodium offers benefits. With the average American eating more than 3,400 milligrams daily, the panel recommends at least trying to reduce sodium intake by 1,000 milligrams a day if the goals are unattainable. Alice Lichtenstein, a member of the panel and a professor at Tufts University, said the new recommendation “puts the focus where it should be.� Get sodium intake down, and fine-tune the numbers as more evidence comes in.

The panel recommends eating more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds. A plant-based diet is “more health promoting and is associated with less environmental impact� than the current U.S. diet, which is high in meat. The report stops short of telling people not to eat meat, saying “no food groups need to be eliminated completely to improve sustainability outcomes.�

I didn’t really need a motorcycle In my early teen years I always wanted a motorcycle. Knowing my mom and dad couldn’t really afford one, I would ask for one every Christmas anyway. When I was 15 years of age they assured me I would get a motorcycle for ChristGary mas. BeAndrews ing excited for sevDevotionals eral days doesn’t even come close to my attitude and overall demeanor toward them or anyone else. I was the model teenager and sitting on top of the world knowing that I was going to wake up on Christmas morning and find a motorcycle waiting for me outside. Sure enough they were true to their word except the motorcycle I received was a nice plastic model of what I really wanted. My parents knew what my heart wanted but gave me what I needed and explained the many reasons I should have the model over the real thing. Now that I am an adult and have children of my own I truly understand their logic and reason-
ing for not allowing me to have a motorcycle. It is not that motorcycles are bad, it was their vision and knowledge of what would probably happen to me if I received one. Life is like this for many of us. As adults we are often searching and wanting for worldly possessions we have no need for. We may work hard and earn a good living but many times we do not receive or buy things that we think we can’t live without. Our Father in heaven allows us to make decisions on our personal lives, however we need to listen to Him and ask for His guidance in all that we do or buy. Just as my earthly parents knew my needs and didn’t give in to my whining desires, our heavenly Father knows much more about us than what our earthly parents will ever know. My parents knew what kind of person I was at the age of 15 and knew that I did not need a motorcycle. I had no way of taking care of it much less having the maturity to ride it without taking chances. They also knew my chances of living and being with them were much greater if I didn’t own one. Knowing Jesus as our Lord and Savior is all that we ever need. For this we
Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – 1 Corinthians 3:10-15; Monday – Isaiah 55:1-2; Tuesday – Mark 8:34-38; Wednesday – Hebrews 13:5; Thursday – Amos 3:10; Friday – 2 Peter 3:11-14; Saturday – Zephaniah 1:18.) are promised eternal life with Him. The world will tell us different but we need to remember what Jesus said in Mark 8:36; “What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” The desire to own a motorcycle lingered on with me for many years but now that I am older and wiser, I didn’t really need one in the first place. Prayer: Father thank you for the wisdom that comes with age. Thank you for my parents and the guidance and vision that came from them. Lord, I praise you for my parents and their desire for me to accept you as Lord of my life. Amen. Gary Andrews is the author of Encouraging Words: 30-days in God’s Word.

Are you not ready yet for flowers of spring? Is anyone ready to see spring flowers? I bought silk blossoms the other day to make a wreath for the front porch. My younger son said, “What are you doing? It’s not springtime yet.” I ass u r e d him I was trying to rush the temperatures and Lora Ann e n c o u r Huff age the flowers to bloom. Back Porch I’m tired of cold air and ice! …But aren’t the trees and bushes pretty with their icy glitter? I told my grandchildren they look like they’re made of crystal with diamonds to add the sparkle. Someone sent me the definition for “snow day” – A day when God says, “Teachers, I still love you” and also a day to show parents that teachers really are underpaid. Everyone enjoys a snow day once in a while, but they really like for the snow to be deep enough
to make the time off from school worthwhile. With the ice and very cold temps, the days off have not been much fun for the kids. They want real snow – ten inches of it, enough to “make a big snowman,” my grandsons said, “like the one we made a couple years ago.” Along that line of thought, I found a list of lessons we can learn from a snowman. Your kids or grandkids might like them: Wearing white is always in style – even after Labor Day. Getting outside in the winter is good for your health. It’s fun just to hang out in your front yard. We’re all made up of mostly water. Accessories don’t have to be expensive. Don’t get too much sun! If you’re a little bottom heavy, that’s okay! In a confrontation, a hand-held hairdryer can be an effective weapon. You know you’ve made it when they write a song about you. If you look down and

Sometimes sweating too much can have disastrous results. With that I’ll just say, “Stay warm, drink some hot chocolate and find something productive to do until spring temps arrive.” Flowers will bloom again and when they do, we should literally surround ourselves with them! By the way, when it’s zero degrees outside and it’s going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be???... (Daily Corinthian columnist Lora Ann Huff is a Wenasoga resident.)
