3 Mississippi cities hit fiber goal Corinth taking to streets in signup process this weekend BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
A big weekend for C Spire’s Fiber to the Home initiative saw three Mississippi cities hit
the required numbers to get residential gigabit per second Internet service. They are the entire town of Quitman, the Allen area
of Horn Lake and the South Montgomery area of Starkville. South Montgomery leads the way with 49 percent saturation, followed by Quitman at 48 percent and Allen at 45 percent. Preregistration continues in all of the nine eligible cities, including Corinth, where supporters of the cause do not in-
tend to get left behind. A combination of students and other volunteers are set to knock on many doors in the city on Saturday. “We’re hoping to make a lot of headway on that day,” said John Orman, a supporter of the campaign. “We’re kind of disappointed that we weren’t first,
but it’s not like we don’t have a chance.” Corinth’s north fiberhood is at 8 percent (45 percent required); central has moved up to 3 percent in the last few days (35 percent required); and south is at 1 percent (35 percent Please see FIBER | 2A
Paving bids ready in city BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The city is ready to get bids in hand for spring street paving. The Board of Aldermen on Tuesday gave approval to solicit bids for resurfacing with the bulk of the work expected to commence about midMay. Aldermen have finalized their priorities for work throughout the city with $1.6 million in bond funding. A complete list of included streets will be published at a later date. “The aldermen and the mayor and I spent a long time going through a long list of what needs to be done,” said Street Commissioner Philip Verdung, “and we’ve tried to narrow it down based on two things: Of the projects that can be done now, which are the most severe and which carry the most traffic.” He acknowledged that there are plenty more streets in the city that are not on the list that could use some asphalt. “For every one here, there are probably three or four more that need it,” said Verdung. “You’ve got to find a place to start.” The timing is wrong for some streets. “There’s an ongoing drainage assessment and sewer assessment in the city, so there are certain roads that we can’t do right now,” he said. “For instance, there’s a section of Webster Street that I know people want done, but we can’t do it right now because once the assessment phase of this sewer assessment is completed, there will be some sewer work that’s done there. So we don’t want to do the surfacing now and then tear the street up later.” While heavily traveled thoroughfares such as Fulton Drive and Shiloh Road are on the list, many residential streets will also see paving. Several blocks around the courthouse will see paving, and Verdung hopes to greatly improve North Madison Street’s condition. The developing Wick Street area will get some extensive work with sidewalks and additional parking. “Where there’s private investment, we would like to bring some public investment as well,” said Verdung. Towards the end of the construction period, whatever funds are left will go toward paving on Purdy School Road and Forrest School Road. The work will also include a turning lane on

Biggers remembered for compassion BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
Friends remember Dr. James David “Buddy” Biggers III as a kind, loving man with a gentle spirit and compassionate heart for others. The beloved dentist died Tuesday at Magnolia Regional Health Center. He was born in Corinth on April 29, 1930, to the late James David Biggers Jr. and Adrienne Taylor Biggers. “Everyone has a Buddy Biggers story. He was a very pleasant individual, the kind of man who could

walk into a room, smile and make everyone feel better. When he did something or said something, you remembered,” said Dr. Don Elliott, pastor of First Presbyterian Church. “He was a long-time member and an elder of our church who gave himself to mission often. In 1991 he went on our first mission trip to Roca Blanca, Mexico. I had the privilege of working with him at that dental clinic.” For many years, Biggers ran a local clinic where he provided services to the needy. He was a fifth-generation Corinthian who practiced general
dentistry for 53 years, 46 of which were in Corinth. “He was amazing as he worked with people. I’ve seen him get van loads of students and staff members from French Camp Academy and give them all dental services at no cost,” said Elliott. French Camp Academy is a Christian boarding school in central Mississippi. “His work there was what struck me the most,” said Dr. Edward Please see BIGGERS | 2A
Sale will benefit legendary photographer BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
For more than 50 years, Joe McKewen has been one of the area’s premier photographers capturing major life events from births, high school graduations and weddings. From his iconic studio on Cruise Street, McKewen has charmed and smiled his way into many lives. With assistance from his wife, Doris, he has also been a familiar face at community and school events and family reunions over the years. In 2013, the McKewens experienced health issues. They
were forced to close their business and sell their downtown Corinth studio. Friends and admirers of the couple quickly jumped into action to help with the process of cleaning and moving countless items out of the studio. “We wanted to do something to help the local legend,” said fellow photographer Bill Avery. “We have been moving frames and photos from Joe’s studio for several weeks.” Avery and his classmates from the Men’s Senior Sunday School Class at First Baptist Church are overseeing the sale of thousands of pictures taken
by McKewen. All proceeds from the sale will benefit the couple. “There are piles of photos everywhere. All different sizes. There are graduation photos from all the local schools from the last five decades,” Avery added. “Everyone who has ever had a photo taken by Joe should come to this sale.” Avery said the sale will also include hundreds of high quality wooden frames and mats. The sale will take place today and Saturday from 10 a.m.-4 p.m., at 1801-4A South Harper

State could adopt ACT as high school exit exam BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi high school students could soon be using the same test to get out of high school and get into college. Gov. Phil Bryant, House members and superintendents are pushing a proposal to use the ACT college test as the high school exit exam for public school students. Mississippi would become the first state to set a minimum composite score on the test for students to graduate from high school. Bryant announced support for the plan last year, and House Bill 767
would set up a pilot program giving the tests to high school juniors in 10 school districts chosen by a University of Mississippi research center. The bill sailed through the House, passing 118-1 on Feb. 11, and awaits Senate consideration. Mississippi is already moving toward joining at least 14 other states in administering the test to all high school juniors as part of a new statewide school rating system. But the test would only be used to measure schools. Since 2003, the state has used four exit exams — in algebra I, English II, biology and U.S. history — that students must

Proper Street at Pinecrest to accommodate trucks traveling to a Kimberly Clark warehouse on Pinecrest. Verdung said this should help keep those big trucks from taking Kendrick Road into the city and getting stuck in residential areas. As the streets are now, there is not enough room for the trucks to make that turn from Proper to Pinecrest.
Verdung also plans changes to the city’s signage restricting truck traffic. He believes there are too many and that truckers are not always heeding them. “We are going to redo most of that signage and put up some more informative signs for these truck drivers so they know what hazards are ahead and they know how to get out of the downtown if they get into it,� he said.

required). It appears that Corinth needs roughly 600 more signups in the north and 700 more in the central section. Those going door-todoor will wear C Spire shirts and carry iPads to complete the signup process. They will hit the streets at 9 a.m. and continue into the afternoon. Accommodations are being made for people who do not want to give their credit card number. A $10 refundable deposit is required to preregister. Horn Lake’s fiberhood crossed the finish line first this past weekend as volunteers gathered signups in neighborhoods. Quitman and then Starkville’s fiberhood also hit their targets during the weekend. Based on the current numbers, Ridgeland is
expected to be the fourth city to have a fiberhood reach its target. Quitman, a small town of 2,300, signed up more than 100 people on Saturday. C Spire hopes to launch the service in these communities by summer. The statewide rollout of fiber is the first of its kind, offering super-fast residential Internet speeds only available in a small handful of cities across the country. “We’re truly impressed with the early and strong support for this initiative,� said C Spire President and CEO Hu Meena in a news release, “and we look forward to demonstrating the power of Internet at the speed of light as we turn up service in the first C Spire Fiber cities in Mississippi.� To sign up: cspire.com/ fiberhome

pass to graduate. The bill sets up a pilot program and then mandates use of the ACT as the state’s primary exit exam. The state Board of Education is mandated to propose a bill in late 2015 for the 2016 Legislature to make the ACT statewide based on the pilot. “Hopefully, after a year, we’ll make it statewide,� said House Education Committee Chairman John Moore, R-Brandon, the bill’s sponsor. The bill also says the Legislature will set passing scores. Now, the Board of Education sets passing scores on the subject area tests. Madison County Su-
perintendent Ronnie McGehee is one the foremost proponents of the plan. He said students care much more about the ACT than the current subject area tests. “It means something to our children,� the elected superintendent said. “The ACT is the gatekeeper of where you can go after the secondary experience.� In 2013, the 28,000 Mississippi students who took the ACT scored 18.9. That was the secondlowest average among the states, compared to a national average of 20.9. Mississippi scored above the college-ready level in English but below in math, reading and science.
Even a composite score of 15 would mean that more than a quarter of students would fail. The bill calls for alternate graduation routes including the existing subject tests. Some are critical of the plan. The ACT doesn’t measure U.S. history knowledge and measures science reasoning instead of biology knowledge. Opponents say they don’t want to give up the Common Core-aligned tests being developed by the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC), a multistate group that includes Mississippi. “An exit exam for high school is supposed to
measure how much you learn in high school. The ACT is not a test that’s geared to do that,� said Rachel Canter, executive director of Mississippi First, an education reform group. “It’s geared to assess how well you will do in college.� Ed Colby, spokesman for ACT Inc. of Iowa City, Iowa said the test is a fair assessment of what students need to know. He said that in science, for example, ability to think scientifically is more important that specific knowledge. “They can teach the parts of a cell if a student hasn’t learned that,� Colby said.
Democrats push for state employee raise BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Democrats say they’ll keep trying to give all Mississippi government employees at least a $1,000 pay raise in the coming year, even after several attempts were blocked Wednesday in the Republican-majority House. Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville, said Democrats were playing “raw politics� by forcing several rollcall votes that required members to say yes or no to raises for various agencies. Frierson said the state can’t afford the $39 million plan proposed by Rep. Johnny Stringer, DMontrose. Under the recommended budget for fiscal 2015, which begins July 1, teachers are in line to
receive a raise, but employees of most agencies are not. Frierson said top budget writers talked about including a raise for most workers. “We wanted to do it. And we ran out of money,� Frierson told the House. Stringer said many state employees haven’t had a raise in seven years. He was Appropriations Committee chairman from early 2004 to early 2012, when Democrats held the House majority. Rep. Alex Monsour, RVicksburg, pointed out that state workers’ pay remained flat most of the years Stringer was the lead budget writer. That elicited a long “Whoa....� from some House members, and Speaker Philip Gunn gaveled for them to be quiet. “We didn’t have revenue back then,� Stringer
said. “But the economy has picked up.� Lawmakers are entering the final weeks of writing a $6 billion budget for fiscal 2015. This week, the House and Senate are considering early versions of more than 100 budget bills to fund everything from schools to prisons. The two chambers will exchange bills for more work, and there’s a late March deadline for negotiators to agree on final details. Several more budget bills await House consideration in the next few days, and Stringer said he’ll try again to add state employee pay raises to those. Meanwhile, Attorney General Jim Hood said Wednesday that lawsuit settlements are pumping an extra $64 million into the state budget. Hood, a Democrat, is
sending nearly $53 million to the general fund, which is the largest part of the budget, and $11 million to the state employees’ health insurance plan. The state sued GlaxoSmithKline over claims the company made about the diabetes drug, Avandia. That settlement is bringing $25.2 million. The state is collecting $22.5 million in a pricefixing case against BASF, a German company that makes vitamins. Hood said he’s asking lawmakers to spend some money for counseling and other programs to help departing prisoners re-enter the free world. He’s also asking lawmakers to spend some to expand drug courts, which focus on treating addicts rather than putting them in prison.

Biggers had the ability to journey anywhere in the world and come out with friends. “He was a fine gentleman that I have known all my life,� said Clayton Stanley. “I am thankful to have had the opportunity to know him as well as I did.� Biggers was a funloving man who enjoyed pulling pranks on people in his office. “He loved to play tricks on us and we’d have to try and think of

He’d do anything he could for you. He was one-of-akind, more like a family member than a boss–like a grandfather to me,� she

GRACE, FAITH, AND WORKS (4)
Salvation is “BY� grace, “THROUGH� faith, and “NOT OF WORKS� as Paul writes in Ephesians 2:8-9, and today we will talk more on the last phrase: “not of works, lest anyone should boast�. Paul states that WORKS has nothing to do with the gift of salvation. Now compare James’ words: “What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have WORKS? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, ‘Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,’ but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, it it does not have WORKS, is dead....You see then that a man is justified by WORKS, and not by faith only.� (James 2:14-17,21) Have you ever compared these passages before? If not, you may be scratching your head and thinking, Why does Paul say “not of works� and James say “justified by works�? To avoid the alleged discrepancy we must conclude that Paul and James spoke of two different kinds of works. Paul often spoke of works (or deeds) of the law of Moses in which some Jews mistakenly thought they were proficient enough to earn or merit salvation. His repeated response was “that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law� (Romans 3:28). If one could do WORKS in this sense, God would owe him salvation--it would be a debt, not a gift (4:4). Moreover, if salvation is “by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace� (11:6; and compare Galatians 2:21 and 3:10-11). Nonetheless, James teaches that faith (real scriptural faith) demands that we obey our Lord. The kind of works he writes about may be called works of God, works of obedience, works of faith, or works of righteousness, without which one’s faith remains dead and unprofitable (James 2:18-20). Years earlier the Apostle Peter stated that “God shows no partiality, but in every nation, whoever fears Him and WORKS righteousness is accepted by Him� (Acts 10:34-35).

Bryant asks lawmakers 35 hurt in church to fund trooper school floor collapse
Today in history Today is Friday, Feb. 21, the 52nd day of 2014. There are 313 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 21, 1965, black Muslim leader and civil rights activist Malcolm X, 39, was shot to death inside the Audubon Ballroom in New York by assassins identified as members of the Nation of Islam.
On this date: In 1613, Mikhail Romanov, 16, was unanimously chosen by Russia’s national assembly to be czar, beginning a dynasty that would last three centuries. In 1862, Nathaniel Gordon became the first and only American slave-trader to be executed under the U.S. Piracy Law of 1820 as he was hanged in New York. In 1916, the World War I Battle of Verdun began in France as German forces attacked; the French were able to prevail after 10 months of fighting. In 1925, The New Yorker magazine made its debut. In 1945, during the World War II Battle of Iwo Jima, the escort carrier USS Bismarck Sea was sunk by kamikazes with the loss of 318 men. In 1947, Edwin H. Land publicly demonstrated his Polaroid Land camera, which could produce a blackand-white photograph in 60 seconds. In 1964, the first shipment of U.S. wheat purchased by the Soviet Union arrived in the port of Odessa. In 1972, President Richard M. Nixon began his historic visit to China as he and his wife, Pat, arrived in Beijing. In 1989, the future president of Czechoslovakia, playwright Vaclav Havel, was convicted for his role in a banned rally and sentenced to nine months in jail (he was released in May 1989). In 1994, Aldrich Ames, a former head of Soviet counterintelligence for the CIA, and his wife, Maria del Rosario Casas Ames, were arrested on charges of spying for the former Soviet Union and later Russia.
JACKSON — Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant says he wants lawmakers to set aside money to train a new group of state troopers — and if they don’t do it, he’ll call them into a special session to force more discussion about the issue. Lawmakers are still weeks away from finishing work on an overall state budget for fiscal 2015, which begins July 1. The earliest budget recommendation from top lawmakers does not include money for a trooper training school. But, Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Eugene “Buck” Clarke, R-Hollandale, said Wednesday that about $6.9 million could
“I hope the governor will address the number of troopers that are on the road.” Tate Reeves Lieutenant Governor be added before a final spending plan is adopted. Bryant told The Clarion-Ledger that he’s willing to call a special session to push for funding of a trooper school, if needed. He said lives are at stake. The Highway Patrol’s last trooper training school was in 2011. Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves has been harshly critical of the Department of Public Safety’s spending. He says too much is being spent on administra-
tors and not enough on troopers. The department’s commissioner is appointed by Bryant. “We repeatedly hear horror stories about one trooper for four counties,” Reeves said. “There are over 500 sworn officers. One for four counties means there are 25 on the road at any one time.That’s not a manpower issue. That’s a leadership issue. I hope the governor will address the number of troopers that are on the road.”
Snipe hunting not just a prank BY BRIAN ALBERT BROOM The Clarion-Ledger
JACKSON — Snipe hunting is the stuff of legends and the mere mention of it draws giggles. Armed with burlap bags, young hunters are lured into the woods at night by elders to catch the elusive bird. The older hunters then throw rocks in the bushes and make ridiculous sounds to fool their victims into chasing the imaginary quarry. Better yet, the guides sometimes slip away into the darkness and leave the hunters thinking they are stranded in the woods alone. For Duncan Russell, 14, of Brandon, snipe hunting is no joke. “Nobody really believes you until you go hunt and come back with them,” Russell said. And this time of year, that’s just what he does. “We usually wait until after duck season because we hunt them in the shallow parts of the duck holes,” Russell said. “We don’t want to mess up the duck hunting.” Houston Havens, Waterfowl Program Leader for the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, said mud flats, soggy agricultural fields and drawndown duck holes hold dense populations of
snipe this time of year. These moist areas allow the birds to probe the soil with their long beaks for the invertebrates and insects they feed on. They also provide opportunities for some of the most challenging wing shooting available. “They’re just so fast and they never fly straight,” Russell said. Because of their erratic flight, Russell said it takes a while for hunters to get into the swing of it. Hunting in the south Delta with his father and brother, Russell said they use decoys that are paper profiles that stand on wire legs. “A bunch of people don’t think they’ll decoy,” Russell said. “They don’t decoy like ducks. They come in fast. Usually 5 or 6 at a time.” When the hunt is over, it’s time to enjoy the harvest. Russell said they remove the breasts and marinate them. After that, Russell said they wrap them in bacon and fire up the grill. “They taste delicious,” Russell said. “Almost exactly like a dove.” Despite the challenging shooting and fine eating associated with snipe, few take advantage of them. “There are just a handful of die-hard wing shooters that hunt snipe in February,” Havens said. “The numbers are
very, very low.” Havens said that many hunters are burned out after duck season or concentrate on light geese. With energy typical of a teenager, Russell shows no sign of burning out after duck season. “It’s kind of like a tradition to me,” Russell said. “Getting a small shore bird like that to decoy — it’s really fun.”
BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. Associated Press
JACKSON — As a student minister preached at a youth center in Mississippi, the wooden floor started to rumble and quickly collapsed, sending about 70 people tumbling and sliding onto the first floor below. About 35 people were injured during the youth service Wednesday night, with most of them suffering cuts and broken bones. A 16-year-old girl had a head injury, but none of the injuries was considered life-threatening. Everyone was released from the hospital by midnight. “We were blessed by the Lord,” Pastor Tommy Davis told The Associated Press on Thursday. “Today, we are getting all the inspections done to a get a better perspective about what happened Wednesday night.” The two-story metal prefabricated building had been used as a community activity center for basketball games and meetings in Laurel, which is in southern Mississippi. There are classrooms and a large recreation room where the young congregation had gathered. The adult members of Freedom Baptist Church were worshipping at the church next door.
Linda Cranford, a spokeswoman for the Jones County Fire Council, said church leaders and members got their first good look inside the building Thursday. “The floor collapsed in like a ‘V’ or funnel. It was an area of about 30 feet by 40 feet that gave way,” Cranford said. Witnesses reported hearing a low rumble before the floor gave way as student minister Kevin Price gave a sermon. “Kevin was preaching on everything we own isn’t our own,” Tori Hodge, 18, told The Chronicle newspaper in Laurel. “Everybody heard it. The floor started crumbling and waving. People started falling through the ceiling, just like you’d see in a movie.” The floor is above a kitchen area. The drop was about 12 feet, said Sheriff Alex Hodge. “The floor gave way right in the middle. You can see board hanging there,” Jones County Emergency Operations director Marda Tullos said. Davis, the pastor, praised the leaders of the worship service for their quick action in restoring calm. He said the students, ranging in age from 12 to 18 years, had all been reunited with their parents.
PUBLIC NOTICE REGARDING THE REDISTRICTING OF ALCORN COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI Notice is hereby given that on February 3, 2014, the Board of Supervisors of Alcorn County, Mississippi took up for consideration the matter of approval and adoption of a proposed correction to the plan of redistricting Alcorn County, Mississippi, which plan was originally adopted on September 3, 2013, as a result of population shifts reflected in the 201 0 U.S. Census.

Demand rising on drug courts The Mississippi Legislature appears to be making progress on new, less harsh prison sentencing guidelines for non-violent offenders. The idea is to get a handle on corrections costs that have risen too rapidly over the past decade. If this criminal justice reform becomes law, it means many people who get sent to prison will spend less time there. It also may mean that more offenders will have the option to enter an alternative program, such as the drug court system. Assuming that happens, the Legislature needs to be mindful of a decision last year that has limited the effectiveness of drug courts. The Mississippi drug court system has proven to be so successful that a few years ago, the Legislature passed a bill requiring the program in each county. That was fine, except that it turned into one o! f those dreaded unfunded mandates because lawmakers, in ordering the expansion, did not provide any extra money for it. A $10 fee on every criminal court case goes into a state drug fund. That produced $4 million a year, which paid for drug courts in the counties that had them and built up a surplus. But since the program has gone statewide, it costs twice as much to operate. In 2013, the Legislature did not give drug courts any extra money. So the advisory committee that oversees the allocation of drug court funds made deep cuts - 25 percent for adult courts that are run by circuit judges, and 58 percent for youth drug courts. A drug court run poorly because of low funding is asking for failure. Mississippi needs its drug courts to be the exact opposite: effective and successful. That will cost some money.

Toyota endowment opens another path Toyota’s arrival in Northeast Mississippi seven y ears ago this month brought with it the promise of a $50 million endowment for education in the public schools of Pontotoc, Union and Lee counties, the members of the PUL Alliance whose partnership helped bring the world-leading car manufacturer and its assembly plant to Blue Springs. The Toyota Wellspring Education Fund remains a promise in process of fulfillment, but its impact and investment continue opening academic opportunities that otherwise would not be possible. The Wellspring fund, Northeast Mississippi Community College and North Mississippi Medical Center have activated a partnership that this fall will allow 20 students (juniors and seniors) in Lee, Union and Pontotoc counties to enroll in a health career survey course, combining online classes and shadowing professionals at the hospital. Importantly, the course will teach students how the American health care system works and about the pressures shaping it. The course is focused on! the reality of education, work and expectations in the health professions. Seven organizations have worked together for more than six months to shape the program, an indication of the rigor involved. The Wellspring fund has just begun to spin off its potential for the schools in the PUL Alliance counties. Expectations are great. Planning and implementation are understandably meticulous and conservative; programs will grow with success. Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal
Prayer for today Almighty God, help me to have true conceptions, that my life may not be secured to needless purposes. May my soul be influenced by high ideals, and my work be the production of truth and not of selfishness. Protect me from evil that I may be kept pure and strong for my work. Amen.

Freshman senator on ‘Cruz’ control Freshman Senator Ted Cruz says many things that need to be said and says them well. Moreover, some of these things are what many, if not most, Americans believe wholeheartedly. Yet we need to remember that the same was true of another freshman Senator, just a relatively few years ago, who parlayed his ability to say things that resonated with the voters into two terms in the White House. Who would disagree that if you want your doctor, you should be able to keep your doctor? Who would disagree with the idea of a more transparent administration in Washington, or a President of the United States being a uniter instead of a divider? There are many things like this that freshman Senator Barack Obama said that the overwhelming majority of Americans -- whether liberal or conservative -- would agree with. The only problem is that what he has actually done as President has repeatedly turned out to be the direct opposite of what he said as a candidate. Senator Ted Cruz has not yet reached the point where he can make policy,
rather than just make political trouble. But there are already disquieting signs that he Thomas is looking out Sowell for Ted Cruz -- even if that Columnist sets back the causes he claims to be serving. Those causes are not being served when Senator Cruz undermines the election chances of the only political party that has any chance of undoing the disasters that Barack Obama has already inflicted on the nation -- and forestalling new disasters that are visible on the horizon. ObamaCare is not just an issue about money or even an issue about something as important as medical care. ObamaCare represents a quantum leap in the power of the federal government over the private lives of individual Americans. Chief Justice Roberts’ decision declaring ObamaCare constitutional essentially repeals the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution, which declares that powers not given to the federal government belong to the states “or
to the people.” That central support of personal freedom has now been removed. The rest of the structure may not last very long, now that the Obama administration is busy quietly dismantling other bulwarks against the unbridled power of the government in general, and the unbridled power of the presidency in particular. The Federal Communications Commission, for example, is already floating the idea of placing observers in newspaper editorial offices to “study” how decisions are made there. Nothing in the Constitution grants the FCC this dangerous power, nor is there any legislation authorizing any such activity. But what the federal government can do is not dependent on what the Constitution authorizes it to do or what Congressional legislation gives them the power to do. The brutal reality is that the federal government can do whatever it wants, if nobody stops them. Like many political ideas, this one is not new. It represents a political strategy that was tried long ago -- and failed long ago. In the German elections
of 1932, the Nazi party received 37 percent of the vote. They became part of a democratically elected coalition government, in which Hitler became chancellor. Only step by step did the Nazis dismantle democratic freedoms and turn the country into a complete dictatorship. The political majority could have united to stop Hitler from becoming a dictator. But they did not unite. They fought each other over their differences. Some figured that they would take over after the Nazis were discredited and defeated. Many who plotted this clever strategy died in Nazi concentration camps. Unfortunately, so did millions of others. What such clever strategies overlook is that there can be a point of no return. We may be close to that point of no return, not only with ObamaCare, but also with the larger erosion of personal freedom, of which ObamaCare is just the most visible part.

Bryant, Thompson talk faith and race Gov. Phil Bryant and U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson on stage together talking to each other about faith and race was quite interesting to watch. As it turns out, they are both Methodists. Both are lifelong churchgoers and professed Christians. Both are intelligent, charismatic and passionate about their beliefs. One is a white Republican. One is a black Democrat. Thompson talked about growing up in Bolton. “I’m part of a generation that had some experiences that even Christians at that time didn’t stand up for, so I know what being persecuted for one’s beliefs is all about. “Let’s talk a little bit about persecution. My school was named Bolton Colored School. I went past Bolton High School every day. Bolton High School had a gymnasium. It had a cafeteria. It had a library. It had everything that a school should have. But Bolton Colored School didn’t have a gymnasium. It didn’t have a cafeteria. It didn’t have indoor plumbing. But it had dedicated teachers. We had prayers every morning. And I had a community that said if you get a better eduction, they can’t take that from you.

“I never had a new textbook my entire public school career. Every textbook I Wyatt had was a Emmerich used textbook. And Columnist most of those textbooks had names of children that I didn’t even know. And so you know what I’m talking about. It is the sum total of those experiences that has gotten me to where I am. “So when Rev. Smith says, just before collection, ‘Asbury, (United Methodist Church in Bolton) you know what you’re faced with. You need to reach in your pocket and dig deep and give liberally to Asbury.’ So if I can give liberally during collection time then that means on Monday if health care is out there to be for everybody then I’m going to do that. If on Tuesday then childcare is being voted, I’m gonna be that vote, because my foundation was at Asbury. That’s how I live my faith. “If we are Christians, I believe we have a responsibility to address the conditions we live by. We have 278,000 people in our state who don’t have health care
because they just can’t afford it. I try to live out that Christian mission as a member of Congress.” Phil Bryant responded: “I hope Bennie that my background and story, and we all have one, is common enough that there won’t be confusion or misunderstanding. “My dad was a diesel mechanic, a World War II veteran. We were raised in a household where there wasn’t everything we always wanted. I remember as a child, I would get excited when one of my brothers would get a new shirt because I knew it was going to be mine one day. ... “My dad’s attitude was you were going to work when you were around him. He always had something for you to do. He was going to teach you the value and responsibility of taking care of a family, going to church and tithing. I have a story most Mississippians can relate to: hard work, determination, giving back. “My faith is much larger than the political world we live in. It’s personal. I depend on it each and every day. To me saying we’re going to take religion and say, ‘Well if you’re a Christian, you need to do this or you need to be able to vote for that.’ I think

we got a lot of that instruction from someone who wasn’t in government about 2,000 years ago. First it was the Ten Commandments, then it was the Sermon on the Mount. So rather than looking to any political position I may have to determine if that’s the Christian way, I’ve got to look back to the Bible and look at what Jesus instructed us to do and how we should treat one another. “If we start dividing ourselves, not only politically but also blend in religion, ‘OK, you’re not religious on this or your religion should support that.’ I worry where do we end that? Who is the arbiter of whether or not Christian behavior in the political world is where it should be? “To judge one another and how our faith might affect the decisions we make every day. The best thing to do is say, ‘My Lord and Savior, lead me where I have to go.’ ” So there you have it: A very concise framing of a huge issue today in Mississippi by two important political figures. Kudos to Mission Mississippi for getting us to focus on these profound issues. (Wyatt Emmerich is publisher of the Northside Sun.)

7 wrestlers pulled after lynching photo TRENTON, N.J. — Seven members of a New Jersey high school wrestling team have been scratched from a state tournament days after a photo surfaced of team members apparently simulating a lynching. Phillipsburg High School officials would not say why the wrestlers were pulled from competition, telling The Express-Times of Easton it’s a “private student matter.” The picture showed seven boys in Phillipsburg wrestling attire surrounding a black wrestling dummy wearing a rival Paulsboro High School T-shirt and hanging from a noose. Pictures of the wrestlers who were scratched seem to match the faces in the photo. A spokesman for the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association says the organization is awaiting a report from Phillipsburg school officials on how they’re handling the situation. The state Division on Civil Rights also is looking at the case.
Ex-soldier hangs self in prison LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Facing life in federal prison with no chance at parole while carrying a conviction of raping and killing a 14-year-old Iraqi girl, a former U.S. soldier hanged himself in his cell in Arizona. Steven Dale Green, 28, of Midland, Texas, did not leave a note explaining the reason for taking his own life over the weekend. He died five years after a federal jury spared him a death sentence in the attack on the teenage girl and the shotgun slaying of her mother, father and younger sister near Mahmoudiya, Iraq, in 2006. One of his attorneys, Darren Wolff, said the prospect of spending the next four to five decades in prison with no possibility of getting out while three co-conspirators have a chance at parole in the coming years took its toll on the former soldier. Also wearing was the prospect of a transfer to another facility because of a recent altercation with other inmates, although Wolff didn’t have details about what happened. “I think I’d have a hard time living with that,” Wolff told The Associated Press on Wednesday. “Who knows what a guy’s thinking when he does something like that.” Prison officials found the 28-year-old ex-soldier’s body on Saturday at the federal penitentiary in Tucson, Ariz. Green, of Midland, Texas, was a private in the 101st Airborne Division based at Fort Campbell on the Kentucky-Tennessee state
line when he deployed to Iraq. In March 2006, he and the three other soldiers went to the home of an Iraqi family in Mahmoudiya, near a traffic checkpoint. At the home, Green shot and killed three members of the al-Janabi family before becoming the third soldier to rape 14-year-old Abeer Qassim al-Janabi before killing her. He was convicted and sentenced to multiple life terms in 2009. Jesse Spielman, Paul Cortez and James Barker are serving lengthy sentences in the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., for their roles in the attack. Each is eligible for parole in 2015.
California sells jackpot ticket MILPITAS, Calif. — The lone winning ticket for the $425 million Powerball jackpot was sold at a convenience store in Northern California, but there was no immediate word on who may have won one of the largest lottery jackpots in U.S. history. The winning numbers drawn Wednesday night were: 1, 17, 35, 49, 54 and a Powerball of 34. California lottery officials said the ticket was sold at Dixon Landing Chevron in Milpitas, a city about 10 miles north of San Jose that bills itself as The Gateway to The Silicon Valley. The business will receive $1 million for selling the winning ticket. Store owner Kulwinder Singh was en route to India and wasn’t expected to hear about the $1 million prize until after he landed in New Delhi around 11 a.m. PST Thursday and called the family, his son, Parmeet, said. California Lottery officials came to the gas station Thursday morning and presented the family with a $1 million check.
Guantanamo inmate could get 15 years FORT MEADE, Md. — A Guantanamo Bay prisoner pleaded guilty Thursday to war crime charges in a pretrial deal aimed at limiting his sentence to 15 years for helping plan the suicide bombing of an oil tanker off Yemen in 2002 that killed a crewman and wounded a dozen others. A military judge accepted the plea deal and found Ahmed alDarbi of Saudi Arabia guilty of the five charges against him, including terrorism, attacking civilians and hazarding a vessel for complicity in the al-Qaida attack on the French-flagged MV Limburg. Under the deal, the sentence could be capped if he cooperates with authorities — meaning he’s expected to testify against other terror suspects. Al-Darbi is a relative by marriage to one of

the Sept. 11 hijackers who crashed a plane into the Pentagon. He’s been at the prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, since August 2002; the attack actually took place two months later. But prosecutors said he was an al-Qaida operative who attended the group’s training camps and helped arrange the bombing by, among other things, buying small boats intended to be used to attack the tanker. “Mr. al-Darbi was not present ... did not actually physically take part in the attack, but he is guilty” of the crimes under U.S. law because he aided those who did, the presiding judge, Air Force Col. Mark L. Allred, said as he repeatedly explained the law to al-Darbi. Speaking to al-Darbi through an interpreter, Allred said he couldn’t accept the guilty pleas until he was sure the accused completely understood them. The judge spent close to two hours going over the case — charge by charge — and questioning al-Darbi on them.
Obama to drop cost-of-living trims WASHINGTON — The White House says President Barack Obama’s upcoming budget proposal will not include his past offer to accept lowered cost-of-living increases in Social Security and other benefit programs. Those had been a central component of his long-term debt-reduction strategy. Officials said Thursday that those potential reductions in spending, included in last year’s Obama budget, had been designed to initiate negotiations with Republicans over how to reduce deficits and the nation’s debt. One official said the offer would remain on the table in the event of new budget talks, but that it would not be part of the president’s formal spending blueprint.
Paterno to run for lieutenant governor HARRISBURG, Pa. — Jay Paterno, the son of late Penn State football coach Joe Paterno, told party officials Thursday that he will seek the Democratic nomination for lieutenant governor. Roger Lund, chairman of the south-central Democratic Party caucus, and Gerald Lawrence, chairman of the southeast party caucus, said Paterno called them and told them that he is circulating petitions to get on the May 20 primary ballot. Paterno did not immediately return a call or email seeking comment after a campaign website went live Thursday morning. The website made it plain he would run for lieutenant governor, but it stopped working by Thursday afternoon.

Woman pleads guilty to abusing her kids PASCAGOULA — A Moss Point woman has pleaded guilty to felony charges accusing her of abusing and torturing her three children. The Sun Herald reports Stacey Williams pleaded guilty to four charges of aggravated domestic violence, along with three charges of felony child abuse. She entered the pleas Tuesday before Circuit Judge Kathy King Jackson, who deferred sentencing until March 12. A Jackson County grand jury indicted Williams in April on all seven charges along with a charge of obstruction of justice for allegedly promising her son he could live with his father if he told officials with the state Department of Human Services his mother had not physically abused him. The state opted not to prosecute that offense. The abuse charges accuse Williams of causing serious bodily harm to her children, now 13, 16 and 18, when she choked them on numerous occasions. In addition, records show, she at one point placed an empty bread bag over a daughter’s mouth and nose to prevent her from breathing. The state did not recommend a sentence for Williams in exchange for her plea. Aggravated domestic violence carries a sentence of up to 20 years and a $10,000 fine. Felony child abuse is punishable by 20 years to life in prison with a fine of up to $10,000.
Gautier begins sign stream initiative GAUTIER — A drainage ditch is not just a drainage ditch. A new program of the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality is designed to raise public awareness of the importance of keeping clean streams of any size that drain into the area’s bayous and ultimately the Gulf of Mexico. The Mississippi Press reports Gautier is the first city on the Gulf Coast to participate in MDEQ’s stream sign initiative. Five locations in Gautier have already been marked by the bright blue signs that call attention to how ditches, creeks and streams affect the overall environment. The first five of 10 locations marked by the city are for Mary Walker, Graveline, Sioux, Castille and Pierre bayous.
IT center planned at Vicksburg campus VICKSBURG — Alcorn State University will locate an information technology program at its branch in Vicksburg. The Vicksburg Post reports that Ivan W. Banks, Alcorn’s director of online education and initiatives, outlined the program for city officials this week. Banks says the Vicksburg branch will be designated as a Microsoft IT Academy. The online training program offers students and teachers training from basic use of Microsoft programs like Excel and PowerPoint to more complex tasks like programming. Banks says the academy’s launch date depends on completion of agreements with Wilmington, Del.-based Knowledge Solutions International, Alcorn’s partner on the project. The company works with businesses, governments and schools on IT education and training.
Walker pleads guilty in two federal cases HATTIESBURG — Ocean Springs businessman Scott Walker pleaded guilty Thursday to fraud and conspiracy charges in two separate cases involving the state Department of Marine Resources. The change of plea
hearing was held Thursday morning in U.S. District Court in Hattiesburg before Judge Keith Starrett. Walker, 34, entered the pleas under an agreement with the U.S. attorney’s office. He was charged with a total of 10 counts in the two cases. As part of a plea agreement, the other eight charges will be dropped, prosecutors said. The Sun Herald reports Walker faces up to 10 years in prison for fraud and up to five years for conspiracy. A sentencing date is pending. Walker had originally planned to fight the charges in both cases and was scheduled for trial in March. In one case, Walker is charged along with his father, former Mississippi Department of Marine Resources Executive Director Bill Walker. Bill Walker announced his intent Wednesday to plead guilty to the conspiracy charge. His plea hearing is set for March 10, also in Hattiesburg. Two other defendants in the case, former DMR Chief of Staff Joe Ziegler and former DMR manager Tina Shumate, maintain their innocence and are scheduled for trial June 2. The indictment outlines one scheme the Walkers allegedly entered with Shumate to enrich themselves with DMR funds through the sale of property in which they had an interest. In a second scheme, the Walkers and Ziegler allegedly conspired to commit, and committed, mail fraud against the government when they funneled money intended for the state into a private foundation Bill Walker controlled. In the second case, Scott Walker and codefendant Michael Janus admit Walker never earned a $180,000 “finder’s fee” Maxwell & Walker Consulting Group was paid in 2011 for ostensibly landing a grant for the city of D’Iberville.

Dear Annie: My girlfriend of two years has just asked whether we should move in together. I am currently living with my parents, so we would be living at her place. I’m not sure how to respond to “Dayna’s” request. I don’t want her to think I don’t like her. But at the age of 27, I still wet the bed. Whenever I am at Dayna’s place, I never let myself fall asleep for fear of soiling both her mattress and our relationship. I always find a reason to leave before morning. How do I broach this subject with her? -- Bedwetter Dear Bedwetter: Childhood enuresis that persists into adulthood often runs in families. (Adultonset enuresis may be a result of diabetes, sleep apnea, urinary tract infections and neurological disorders.) First, see your doctor to find out whether you can get this under control. Discuss medications and exercises to increase bladder capacity. Limit your beverage intake so you aren’t drinking past late afternoon. Alcohol and caffeine can aggravate the condition. You are under no obligation to move in
Annie’s Mailbox with Dayna regardless of the reason. But this issue is likely to come up at some point in the future, so you should work on the conversation you will need to have. It is important that you be honest, that you make it clear that you are working on it (which you should be) and that you will take precautions so she is not inconvenienced. We hope she will care enough about you to be understanding. Dear Annie: I need some advice as to whether I should report a neighbor to our local sheriff or state police. He wears a loaded revolver on his hip all the time, and I don’t know whether he has a permit to carry. This neighbor frightens me. He once said, “Nobody fools with me,” and then patted the gun. None of my neighbors likes or respects this man. I have yet to meet a single person who speaks well of him. He is weird and scary. My concern is that this potential crackpot could go bananas and shoot
someone. I would feel terrible if there was something I could have done to prevent a tragedy. What should I do? -- Concerned Neighbor in Pennsylvania Dear Concerned: Being “weird and scary” does not prevent your neighbor from obtaining a license to carry a gun in your state. This is a problem with people who have no prior evidence of mental illness, but who may, in fact, be mentally unbalanced. We have no way of knowing whether they will shoot up a school or a post office until they do. If you suspect your neighbor does not have a valid license, you can report him to the police and ask that it be checked out. Otherwise, there’s not much you can do but keep an eye open for signs of increased agitation, major depression or out-of-control behavior.

Charter Communications has benefited from a growing roster of high-speed Internet subscribers. The trend helped drive revenue sharply higher in the third quarter for the cable TV provider, contributing to a smaller quarterly loss.

Woman hides at work to avoid spending time with the in-laws DEAR ABBY: I have been married to a wonderful man for 17 years and we have two children. My life should be perfect, and it is -- until it’s time to visit my inlaws. We don’t see them more than a few times a year, but I’ve taken to pleading work as an excuse not to see them on holidays or special occasions if I can avoid it. I have even spent Christmas at home alone because I can’t stand how verbally abusive my in-laws are. My mother-in-law admits to being mean and nasty. She says she doesn’t care because she “hates people.” They are now pressuring my husband to move nearer to them. The thought makes me sick. My life could have been so different if these relatives were nice, normal people. I wanted us to be friends. I’m a kind person, but I have never been good enough for them. I would never dream of saying some of the things they have said to me. They’re upper middle class and I’m “trash.” I never thought when I married my husband that his family would enjoy making me miserable. The Easter holidays are coming and I don’t know what to do. I’m afraid one day the buildup of anger will make me explode. How can I make their verbal abuse stop? I’m sick of being the brunt
of jokes and sarcastic comments. -- “OUTLAW” IN ARIZONA D E A R “OUTLAW”: If your husAbigail band is “wonwhy Van Buren derful,” has he tolerated his parDear Abby ents’ treating you this way for 17 years? He should have insisted from the beginning of your marriage that you be treated with respect. I can’t believe the two of you would expose your children to this multiple times a year. You can’t “make” your in-laws stop their verbal abuse, but your husband might be able to if he locates his spine and puts his foot down. There should be no more talk of moving close to these toxic people, nor should there be any more visits to them until they either change their attitudes or learn to watch their mouths. If your husband feels he must go, then he should go alone, and you should stop making excuses for your absence. DEAR ABBY: My husband is an alcoholic who attends AA meetings. Last night he forgot to sign out of his email and I saw he has been corresponding with a woman he met at the meetings. In her message she confid-
ed her problems finding a man. His reply was that she has been picking the wrong men, that he cares and that they need to talk face-to-face. I wish I had never seen the email. Because of it, I can’t eat or sleep, worrying about what might possibly be going on. I don’t want to confront him because he has a nasty temper, yet I feel I must do something. But what? -- LOST IN NOWHERE, MONTANA DEAR LOST: Instead of “confronting” your husband, simply ask him if he has become this woman’s AA sponsor. It might explain why she is confiding in him, and why he suggested they meet face-to-face to talk, which could be entirely innocent. Does he have a history of cheating on you? If something is going on, it would be better for your emotional health to know what you are dealing with. And if your husband responds with verbal or physical abuse because of his “nasty temper,” you should insist on marriage counseling or get out of there for your own safety.

Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). This is no time to show your work to negative people. Seek the response of encouraging people only. Less than helpful feedback will make you want to splurge on something that will make you feel better. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Even though you were born under the stars of material wealth, you make your life about people and relationships, not things. At least you try to do this. Today you may have to try harder than you do on other days. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone depends on the kindness of strangers, and the go-to stranger today will be you. You will be kind, indeed; just be sure to be smart, as well. Don’t let your guard down. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Beauty is about romance, romance is about mystery, and mystery is about ignorance. The less you tell someone about yourself the more beautiful you
may be to that person now. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve been known to balance your efforts to entertain others with stretches of time spent hiding out. It’s an excellent idea, as you are sure to feel recharged at the end. But do consider what you’re really hiding from. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You desperately need a practical soul on your side. The people you’ll be among do not represent the majority, though they may speak as though they alone have the key to knowledge. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People want your focused attention. People want (SET ITAL) anybody’s (END ITAL) focused attention. It’s such a rare commodity these days, but you give focus and feedback in an especially heartening manner. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You don’t expect your loved ones to want what you want. You don’t see things in the same way or have the same needs, so why
would you? No wonder they feel free around you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Strength untapped is passive and neglectful. Uncontrolled strength is violent. The events of the day are designed to help you be your best by finding your strength and controlling it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Fellowship and community fulfill a human need. That’s why solitary confinement is considered punishment. However, lately you may feel like you’re getting a little too much of a good thing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It will be hard to separate what is said from the person who says it, but you should. Extremely credible advice will come from an unlikely and unpopular source. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Appearances will be more important than usual. You’ll dress to show your respect to the people around you, and they will appreciate the way you class up the environment.

Kossuth girls conquer Central Lady Aggies fall short in loss against Devils BY ANSON KEITH For the Daily Corinthian
BOONEVILLE — The Kossuth girls’squad came out to play Thursday night at Northeast against the Alcorn Central Lady Bears as they won in a romp, 66-44, in the semifinals of the Division 1-3A Tournament. Kossuth (22-5) will take on Booneville, which knocked off second-seeded Belmont in the final game, tonight at Northeast in the
title round as they hope to continue their journey to the Big House in Jackson. The first quarter was as close as it got as the Lady Aggies headed into the second period with a 16-14 lead. KHS increased itslead from every quarter on. Kossuth shot 7-of-19 from behind the arc, accounting for 21 of its 66 total points. They finished the game with only nine turnovers and forced the Golden Bears to commit
six of their own. Kossuth shot 65 percent (15-23) from the charity stripe. Lady Aggie guard Parrish Tice led the way in scoring for Kossuth as she scored 20 points in the contest, 12 points coming from behind the 3 point line. The Lady Bears (17-12) just couldn’t hold up to the Aggies’ high caliber offense and that proved to be their downfall. After only scoring nine points in the second quarter and 10points in the third, they were looking at a near unconquerable deficit heading into the fourth quarter down by 12. Alexis Harmon was at the
top of the card for scoring for the Lady Bears as she put 15 on the board for the game. Briley Talley was right behind her with 10 of her own.

Corinth moves into 3rd straight final BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
FULTON — The Corinth Warriors got back on track at the right time. Corinth outscored Pontotoc 30-18 over the final 13 minutes Thursday en route to a 68-56 in the fourth and semifinal of the Division 1-4A Tournament at Davis Event Center on the campus of Itawamba Community College. Corinth (21-5) will face top-seeded Shannon tonight at 8:30. The two split the season series, winning on the other’s floor, and will host a North Half Tournament game on Tuesday. Shannon and Corinth played in the previous two title games, with Shannon winning in 2012 and Corinth prevailing last season.
Pontotoc (19-10) and Itawamba will battle in the consolation game. The Corinth girls lost to top-seeded Pontotoc 73-42 in the first game on Thursday. The Lady Warriors, who will be on the road Monday for North Half action, face Shannon -- a 56-54 loser to Itawamaba -- in the consolation game. The Warriors, seeking their fourth straight appearance in the state championship, entered the postseason on the heels of two straight losses. Corinth (21-5) had also dropped three of its last five contests, a streak that began with an 87-79 loss at Pontotoc on Jan. 21. Corinth led 33-30 at intermission, suffering though a 1-of-9 showing from the floor and eight turnovers in
the second quarter. CHS led by as many as 10 at one point before going cold. Desmin Harris ended Corinth’s 7:28 drought from the floor with an inside bucket with 32 seconds left in the half. Two ties and as many lead changes in the first three minutes of the third quarter left the game tied at 38-all. Corinth closed the quarter on a 10-5 advantage, inluding four by Harris and a bucket each from Antares Gwyn, Raheem Sorrell and Kendall Stafford, to lead 5143 after three. CHS extended the lead to 12 twice in the final quarter before Pontotoc got to within six twice -- the last at the 2:30 mark. Corinth, which missed 13 of its 32 free throws overall, hit 7-of10 the final 2:24 to hold off

Freshmen lead LSU past Mississippi St. Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. — Coming off back-to-back losses on the road, LSU certainly needed to get off to a quick start against a slumping Mississippi State team Wednesday. The Tigers didn’t disappoint coach Johnny Jones as they scored the first 14 points of the game en route to a 92-81 victory against the Bulldogs. LSU (16-9, 7-6 Southeastern Conference), which never trailed, continued its stellar play at home. The Tigers have won six consecutive conference home games. Meanwhile, Mississippi State (13-13, 3-10) saw its losing streak reach eight games. “We got off to a really good start, one that we needed,” Jones said. “We played well on the offensive end making plays and executing, getting stops and deflections defensively, rebounding the ball
and getting out on our break. We did that to perfection early on.” Anthony Hickey started the quick LSU outburst with a 3-pointer on its initial possession. Johnny O’Bryant sank a pair of free throws before Shavon Coleman made a basket. A three-point play by Jordan Mickey gave the Tigers a double-digit lead less than two minutes into the game. Jarell Martin made a pair of foul shots before an O’Bryant field goal capped the 14-0 run. Mississippi State’s first point came on a Fred Thomas foul shot at the 16-minute mark. The Bulldogs missed three field goal attempts and committed five turnovers in the opening four minutes. Martin and Mickey, two freshman starters, combined for 39 points. Martin, who was 8-of-11 from the field, scored a season-high 20 points. He also grabbed eight
rebounds, which matched his highest total in a SEC game. Mickey, who made a season-high 11 foul shots, finished with 19 points. “We were just talking on the defensive end of the floor and executing on offense at the start of the game,” Mickey said. “We got some easy baskets and did a great job of communicating amongst ourselves. It was good for us to get off to that type of start. It’s something we have to continue to do.” Three other players scored in double figures for LSU. Coleman scored 18 points, while Andre Stringer had 14 and Hickey 13. The 92 points were a season-high for the Tigers, who had not scored 90 points in a SEC non-overtime game in nine seasons. Craig Sword had a careerhigh 33 points for Mississippi State before fouling out. Gavin Ware had a doubledouble with 10 points and 11 rebounds. Trivante Blood-
man and Roquez Johnson each had 11 points for the Bulldogs. “We spotted them 14 points to start the game,” Mississippi State coach Rick Ray said. “Our guys just can’t beat a quality team at their place when we get off to that bad of a start. The thing I was pleased with was that the guys we brought in fought.” Mississippi State, which fell behind by 20 points, cut its deficit to six at 26-20 with 7:28 remaining in the first half. Sword scored eight points and I.J. Ready made three field goals as the Bulldogs outscored LSU 16-2. However, the Tigers extended their advantage back to double figures by the end of the half. Two 3-pointers by Hickey started the outburst which enabled LSU to expand its lead. Mickey scored five points during this Please see LSU | 11A

Misconduct, crime force more soldiers out  BY LOLITA C. BALDOR Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The number of U.S. soldiers forced out of the Army because of crimes or misconduct has soared in the past several years as the military emerges from a decade of war that put a greater focus on battle competence than on character. Data obtained by The Associated Press shows that the number of officers who left the Army due to misconduct more than tripled in the past three years. The number of enlisted soldiers forced out for drugs, alcohol, crimes and other misconduct shot up from about 5,600 in 2007, as the Iraq war peaked, to more than 11,000 last year. The data reveals stark differences between the military services and underscores the strains that long, repeated deployments to the front lines have had on the Army’s soldiers and their leaders. It also reflects the Army’s rapid growth in the
middle part of the decade, and the decisions to relax standards a bit to bring in and retain tens of thousands of soldiers to fill the ranks as the Pentagon added troops in Iraq and continued the fight in Afghanistan. The Army grew to a peak of about 570,000 soldiers during the height of the wars, and soldiers represented the bulk of the troops on the battlefields compared with the other services. “I wouldn’t say lack of character was tolerated in (war) theater, but the fact of the last 10 or 12 years of repeated deployments, of the high op-tempo — we might have lost focus on this issue,� Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army’s top officer, told the AP last week. “Sometimes in the past we’ve overlooked character issues because of competence and commitment.� His comments mirror concerns aired by Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, several
times in recent months. The ethical lapses, Dempsey said, can be attributed in some ways to 10 years at war when the military failed to properly balance character and competence. “It is not the war that has caused this,� Dempsey said. “It is the pace, and our failure to understand that at that pace, we were neglecting the tools that manage us as a profession over time.� Over the past year, a series of high profile scandals — from sexual assault and damaging leadership to mistreatment of the enemy and unauthorized spending — has dogged the military, leading to broad ethics reviews and new personnel policies. Those scandals included the demotion of Army Gen. William “Kip� Ward for lavish, unauthorized spending; sexual misconduct charges against Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair; and episodes of gambling and drinking by other general officers. More recently, there

have been cheating allegations against Air Force nuclear missile launch officers and a massive bribery case in California that has implicated six Navy officers. Examples of troop misconduct include Marines urinating on the corpses of Taliban fighters and soldiers posing with body parts of Afghan militants. As a result, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and other leaders say ethics is a priority about which they now routinely lecture troops and officers. They also have undertaken initiatives aimed at identifying and dealing with problem service members. “We’re paying a lot more attention to it now. We are not tolerant at all of those showing a lack of character,� Odierno said. “We have to refocus ourselves so we get to where we think is the right place.� In 2010, 119 Army officers were forced to leave the service because of misconduct; that number was fairly consistent with the annual totals since 2000. Last year the number was 387. For enlisted soldiers, the numbers have seesawed over the past 13 years, hovering near 9,000 at the start of the decade and falling to 5,706 in 2007. Since then, the number has climbed again. When the country needs a lot of troops on the front lines, more people with behavioral problems are allowed to come in and stay. When the military begins to shrink, commanders can be much more selective about who is kicked out and who is allowed to stay. As the Army began to reduce its ranks in recent years toward a goal of
490,000 in 2015, leaders have been more willing and able to get rid of problem soldiers. That is likely to escalate because the latest plan would reduce the Army to 420,000 later in the decade if deep, automatic budget cuts continue. The Navy went through a similar process. When the decision was made to cut the size of the 370,000-strong naval force in 2004, the number of sailors who left due to misconduct and other behavior issues grew. In 2006, more than 8,400 sailors left due to conduct issues. As the size of the Navy began to stabilize — it’s now at about 323,000 — the number of problem sailors leaving also began to decline steadily, dropping each successive year to a new low of about 3,700 in 2013. In nearly one-third of the cases each year over that time period, the problems involved drug and alcohol use. More than 1,400 cases each year involved a “serious offense� or civil or criminal court case. The Navy has become known as the most transparent service, often quicker to publicly fire commanders for misconduct or poor leadership. But the number of Navy officers forced out has remained relatively constant, ranging from 84 to 107 annually for the past eight years. The bulk of those were for what the service calls “unacceptable conduct� or unfitness for duty. The Air Force, which is smaller than the Navy and Army, reported far fewer cases of airmen leaving for misconduct, both for officers and enlisted service members. The number of officers separated
from service since 2000 due to a court-martial ranged from a low of 20 in 2001 to a high of 68 in 2007. For enlisted airmen, the number ranged from a high of nearly 4,500 in 2002 to a low of almost 2,900 in 2013. Data for the Marine Corp, the military’s smallest service, was not broken out by officers and enlisted personnel. Overall, it showed that Marines leaving the service due to misconduct was about 4,400 in 2007, but has declined to a bit more than 3,000 last year. Those forced to leave for commission “of a serious offense� has nearly doubled from about 260 to more than 500 over the past seven years. The number of Marines who left after court-martial has dropped from more than 1,300 in 2007 to about 250 last year. The Marine Corps also grew in size during the peak war years, and is now reducing its ranks. Across the services, leaders are trying to deal with complex questions about how to identify and correct the problems. “I don’t think there is one simple answer to the issue of ethics, values, a lapse in some of those areas,� said Hagel during a recent briefing. “Was it a constant focus of 12 years on two long land wars, taking our emphasis off some of these other areas? I don’t know.� He said he is appointing a top officer to work with the services on the problem, and he will be addressing the topic at regularly scheduled meetings with his military leaders. The military services have been adding more lectures on ethics in their schools, and are also targeting top officers.

Some people need to hear things over and over Have you had anyone tell you yet that you’ve already told them the story you’re about to share? Have you told them since they’re not the only people you ever talk to, it’s possible to sometimes forget who you’ve shared the particular story with? Last year someone sent me an anonymous poem written “To My Children.” It’s been making the email circuits so if you haven’t seen it and are starting to experience the above scenario, you might want to pass this poem along to the perpetrator: “When I spill some food on my nice clean dress or maybe forget to tie
my shoe, Please be patient and perhaps reminisce About Lora Ann the many Huff hours I spent with Back Porch you. When I taught you how to eat with care, Plus tying laces and teaching you numbers, too, Dressing yourself and combing your hair, Those were precious hours spent with you. “So when I forget what I was about to say,
Just give me a minute – or maybe two. It probably wasn’t important anyway, And I would much rather listen just to you. “If I tell the story one more time, And you know the ending through and through, Please remember your first nursery rhyme When I rehearsed it a hundred times with you. “When my legs are tired and it’s hard to stand Or walk the steady pace that I would like to do, Please take me carefully by my hand, And guide me now as I once did you.”
I’m reminded of the hundreds – with 4 kids, maybe thousands – of times my husband and I read The Three Pigs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and all the other Golden Book stories years ago. My husband usually got bored reading the stories over and over so he made up his own version. The kids never ceased to be amazed at how interesting he could make Goldilocks’ adventures around the home of the three bears! And there was the story Heather loved about the night she was born. Once her daddy made a bedtime story out of it, she would often say, “Daddy,
tell me again about the night I was born.” I must smile as I think that some day she may get to hear that tale again, and if she says “You’ve already told me about that,” I hope my mind will still be keen enough to remind her about her childhood bedtime requests! The last time we had a sleepover with the grandkids, I talked Hansford into trying out his fairy tale stories with them when it came time for bed. Needless to say, he drew some loud chuckles from the sleepyheads, and I’m certain they will want him to do it again. … So if you think you’re

The Bible’s word for safe sex: Marriage We are in sad times when our educational system will not let us pray or read the Word of God in or on school premises. I heard a song the other day called, “We want America Back,” and the words to this song spoke for Gary m a n y , Andrews m a n y AmeriDevotionals cans. It referenced that God cannot go into schools anymore, but that school leaders can talk about safe sex among the students and then pass out condoms to these students without their parents’ consent. Everyone should be aware that the Bible has a word for safe sex: It’s called marriage. The sanctity of mar-
Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday - Hebrews 13:4; Monday - Leviticus 18:6-23; Tuesday - Mark 12:18-27; Wednesday - Jeremiah 2:31-33; Thursday - Genesis 18:10-15; Friday - 1 Corinthians 12:22-25; Saturday - Isaiah 57:1-5.) A105-10 riage is downplayed in our modern day society, and we have people living together and practicing family traditions without being married. The world is telling them it is okay, and for many years Christians have sat back and watched as the Word of God and prayer has been taken out of public institutions and claimed that a new day has arrived. It is keeping with the modern day movement where God is out and the world is in. What many people do
not understand it that God’s Word never changes, and it never will. The Ten Commandments are still intact and everyone should adhere to them. Exodus 20:14 reads, “You shall not commit adultery.” This wasn’t written just for the Israelites. It is a commandment that is written for all of us and if we are living together and practicing safe sex without the bond of marriage, then we are committing adultery and sinning before our Lord and Savior.
Our world is becoming a nation of illegitimate children because of this, and many children are aborted before they can speak for themselves. Today, we need to turn back to God and listen to Him through His Word. Then and only then, will we make this a better place to live. Prayer: Father, thank you for another day of life. Lead me and guide me to be a good example to those around me and should I or anyone have immoral thoughts concerning me help me to rise above them and remember your commandments. Amen.

Pope’s simple style sways cardinal fashion BY DANIELA PETROFF Associated Press
VATICAN CITY — No glitzy gold, no rich velvet, no regal fur. Pope Francis’ pared down papal wardrobe of sensible black shoes and a white cassock so thin you can see his black trousers through it is a perfect fit for his call for simplicity and humility among his clergy. The pope’s personal style — which earned him Esquire magazine’s “Best Dressed Man of 2013” award — and his broader message of sobriety will be put to the test Saturday when he inducts 19 prelates into the College of Cardinals, placing the three-cornered red silk biretta on the heads of the new “princes of the church.” For the festive occasion, cardinals are traditionally outfitted in scarlet from head to toe, from the silk skull cap to bright red socks, with a white lace embroidered surplice known as a rochet worn over the red cassock and underneath the mozzetta, or shoulder cape. But with the “slum pope” now calling the sartorial shots, fashionistas and Vaticanistas are wondering how his new cardinals — who hail
from some of the poorest places on Earth, including Haiti, Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast — will dress themselves for their new role. “What will make the difference at the consistory is how the cardinals interpret this traditional outfit,” said Raniero Mancinelli who has dressed cardinals and even popes since the early 1960’s from his tiny shop right outside the Vatican walls. Will they splurge for the fancy, optional red silk cape favored by some first-world cardinals? Or will they go the route of the former Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who according to clerical legend wore an altered hand-medown cassock inherited from his predecessor for his 2001 consistory? “The cardinals and priests are much more careful of shining and spend less on their clothes,” Mancinelli told The Associated Press. “The gilded miters are only in shop windows. This is a consequence of Francis. They want to show they are on the same pastoral page.” Mancinelli, who is getting little sleep these days putting the finishing touches on outfits com-
missioned by several of the new cardinals, has some tips of what to watch out for on Saturday, when Francis will preside over the consistory formally welcoming the new cardinals. Immediately noticeable will be how much lace is on the rochet, once sewn by hand — with a price-tag to match — but now often machine made. “This is the Francis effect,” he said of the cheaper version as he ran his fingers over a prototype. Back in 2001 when the then-archbishop of Buenos Aires was made a cardinal by Pope John Paul II, he wore a simple rochet with only two thin bands of embroidered lace. Another saving can come in the material used for the cassock itself. Once made out of precious silk and cashmere, the cassocks are now often synthetic: polyester for the red lining and territal, a synthetic wool blend. “It costs less and also lasts longer, that’s for sure,” Macinelli said. Once handmade, the 33 red buttons (representing the years of Christ’s life) are now more often than not machine made. The cardinals’ red, it should be noted, isn’t just
a fabulous fashion statement: As Francis will recite when he places the biretta on each prelate’s head, red symbolizes a cardinal’s readiness to sacrifice his life for the church and “to act with courage, even to the shedding of your blood.” Altogether, a cardinal’s outfit runs in the “few hundreds of euros, not few thousands,” Mancinelli said. One relatively reasonable add-on: a pair of red socks at 12 euros a pop. Cardinal watchers might also want to keep their eyes on the pectoral crosses worn by the churchmen: When the Jesuit Bergoglio became a bishop in 1992, a friend bought him the simple metal pectoral cross he continues to wear as pope (having eschewed the gold-plated one offered to him the night of his election). Bergoglio’s metal cross was purchased in Mancinelli’s shop and identical versions are on sale for about 330 euros today. Mancinelli said that ever since Francis became pope a year ago, there has been a bit of “belt-tightening” all around in clerical garb, due also to the global economic crisis.

Australian missionary held in North Korea BY KELVIN K. CHAN, AND ROD MCGUIRK Associated Press
HONG KONG — Australia’s prime minister on Thursday urged citizens abroad to obey the laws of foreign countries after an Australian missionary who carried Christian pamphlets was detained in North Korea. John Short, 75, was questioned and then arrested in his Pyongyang hotel on Sunday, a day after he arrived in the North Korean capital, his family said. He has lived in Hong Kong for 50 years and has been arrested previously in China for evangelizing. “He was carrying Korean literature on his person and that could be the reason, but again I don’t know,” his wife, Karen, told The Associated Press. While North Korea’s constitution guarantees freedom of religion, in practice only sanctioned services are tolerated by the government. Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said his government would do its best to offer Short consular assistance. “If you are in another country, be careful to obey their laws. If you’re in trouble, the Australian government is there to do its best to help,” Abbott told reporters in Sydney. Last year, American missionary Kenneth Bae was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor after being accused of com-
mitting hostile acts in North Korea. Short, from Barmera, South Australia state, has been arrested multiple times while evangelizing in mainland China, which he started visiting after the death of Mao Zedong in 1976, according to a biography on a Christian website, Gospel Attract. He was banned from entering China for nearly two years after his second arrest in 1996. Authorities later let him back in and he was arrested several more times for “speaking out about the brutality against Chinese Christians,” said the site. Short’s wife said he was visiting North Korea for the second time. His first trip was a year ago “so he knew what he was going into,” she said. She said he wanted to be there “rubbing shoulders with people as much as possible.” “It’s not an open country and it doesn’t welcome Christians — yes, we realize that,” his wife said. “But that doesn’t mean we stand by and don’t do anything because we care for the situation and we pray about it but sometimes you have to do more than talk.” Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said it has asked the Swedish Embassy in Pyongyang to confirm Short’s wellbeing and to seek more information.
Wedding services bill dead this session in Tennessee’s legislature Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A proposal to protect wedding-related businesses from lawsuits if they refuse to provide services to same-sex couples is dead for the session after being withdrawn from a Senate committee on Tuesday. The measure sponsored by Republican Sen.
Mike Bell of Riceville was pulled from the Senate Judiciary Committee. Under the measure, a person or group wouldn’t have to provide services for a domestic partnership or marriage not recognized by the state if doing so would violate their religious beliefs. Tennessee does not recognize
same-sex marriages. Bell had said he wanted to protect shop owners in Tennessee, noting that those in other states have been sued for refusing to do business. But on Tuesday, he said he had talked with legal experts and believes there are current state protections that address his
concerns. “I’m convinced that current Tennessee law protects our business owners from the type of lawsuit harassment we’ve seen in other states,” he said. Opponents of the measure say it’s intended to target gay, lesbian and transgender couples and is discriminatory.
“What was happening here was the effort to codify discrimination; to actually say that individuals could use their religion to discriminate, and that was not acceptable,” said Hedy Weinberg, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee. “Religion should not be used as a
reason to discriminate.” The bill was proposed in the wake of recent court rulings in other states striking down bans on same-sex marriage. Supporters of the measure believe Tennessee’s ban will be overturned, and that the bill would protect the religious beliefs of business owners.
